Day
A mysterious figure who stepped out of the shadows in Marvel's Strange Tales #9 in 1987, Day was brought to life by the talented duo of Terry Austin and Bret Blevins during comics' Copper Age. With a catalog presence spanning an impressive 34 years through 2021, this character has proven quietly enduring, surfacing across landmark collections like the Cloak and Dagger Omnibus and The Mutant Misadventures of Cloak and Dagger. Day keeps rarefied company — sharing pages with Cloak, Tyrone Johnson, Tandy Bowen, and the enigmatic Night — placing this character squarely in one of Marvel's most atmospheric and underappreciated corners of the universe. For collectors drawn to the moody, street-level side of the Marvel tapestry, Day is a genuinely intriguing discovery hiding in plain sight.
