Leonardo da Vinci

Few figures from history have found as enduring a home in Marvel's universe as Leonardo da Vinci, who first stepped onto the comics page in Mystery Tales #41 in 1956 — a Golden Age debut courtesy of Carl Wessler, Jim McLaughlin, and Sol Brodsky. Over nearly seven decades, this Renaissance genius has kept remarkable company, sharing pages with the likes of Iron Man, Thor, Isaac Newton, and Albert Einstein, suggesting Marvel has long regarded him as a mind that belongs in the most extraordinary of circles. His strongest presence runs through titles like S.H.I.E.L.D., Invincible Iron Man, and Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme, placing him at the intersection of science, mystery, and superheroics. For collectors who love the idea that history's greatest intellect might have a secret life woven into Marvel's tapestry, da Vinci is a fascinating thread worth pulling.
