Iron Maiden

Debuting in Marvel Fanfare #11 in 1983, Iron Maiden is a Bronze Age Marvel villain with serious pedigree — introduced by the legendary George Pérez and writer Ralph Macchio, she arrived with all the style and menace you'd expect from that creative pairing. Aligned with both A.I.M. and the notorious Batroc's Brigade, she runs in genuinely dangerous company, sharing the page with the likes of Captain America and Steve Rogers across titles including Captain America, Invincible Iron Man, and Black Widow: Web of Intrigue. Over four decades of Marvel history she's remained a persistent, collector-worthy presence — 18 appearances and a key issue to her name — the kind of deep-cut antagonist that rewards fans who love digging into the richer corners of the Marvel universe.
