Windrider

Born from the imagination of Bronze Age legends Chris Claremont and Dave Cockrum, Windrider made their debut in the pages of The Uncanny X-Men #153 in 1982 — a collector-significant issue that places this character right at the heart of one of Marvel's most celebrated runs. With appearances spanning an impressive four decades through 2023, Windrider may be a rare presence in the catalog, but their pages are shared with some of the most iconic figures in the X-Men universe — Colossus, Phoenix, and Nightcrawler among them. That kind of company speaks volumes, and for fans digging into Marvel Masterworks: The Uncanny X-Men or the classic Nightcrawler series, Windrider is one of those intriguing Bronze Age discoveries that rewards the curious collector.
