Kogar

Kogar stepped onto the Marvel stage in 1978, a Bronze Age creation of Doug Moench and Jim Craig, debuting in the pages of Master of Kung Fu — one of the most atmospheric and espionage-flavored corners of the Marvel universe. With only a handful of catalog appearances, this is a rare, niche figure who nonetheless keeps rarefied company: Shang-Chi, Leiko Wu, Black Jack Tarr, and Clive Reston are among those sharing the page. The fact that Kogar's appearances are collected within the Shang-Chi: Master of Kung Fu Omnibus means this character is preserved for dedicated fans and completists who want every shadow in that richly drawn world — and that's reason enough to take notice.
