Xemnu

Xemnu made their comics debut in the pages of Nova #158 in 1991, brought to life by the celebrated creative team of Jim Starlin and Ron Lim — a Copper Age pedigree that carries real weight among collectors. With appearances spanning over three decades through 2022, this is a character who has quietly persisted across the Marvel universe, turning up in titles as varied as Immortal Hulk and Deadpool Samurai. The company Xemnu keeps is nothing short of marquee — sharing pages with Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, and Bruce Banner — which speaks to a character woven into the fabric of some genuinely consequential storylines. A rare find with only a handful of catalogued appearances, Xemnu is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that makes digging through back issues so rewarding.
