Iron Maiden

Born from the visionary minds of Jim Krueger and Alex Ross in 1997, Iron Maiden is a creature of the Modern Age — a character whose very existence is woven into the haunting, reimagined Marvel landscape of the Earth X saga. With only a handful of appearances to their name, this is a rare, collector-worthy figure whose debut in the Earth X Special Edition already counts as a key issue, making every page they grace worth tracking down. The company is extraordinary — Hulk, Daredevil, Captain America, Spider-Man, and Iron Man all share this dystopian stage — which speaks to the epic, universe-spanning scale of the story Ross and Krueger crafted. For fans of prestige-format comics that dared to ask "what if the Marvel universe grew old and strange," Iron Maiden is one of those intriguing threads worth pulling.
