Mark

Few characters carry the Bronze Age energy of Battle of the Planets quite like Mark, who burst onto the page in 1979 courtesy of creators Gary Poole and Win Mortimer. Published under the Western banner, Mark's adventures unfolded across a remarkable span stretching all the way to 2004, sharing those action-packed issues with a memorable cast including Princess, Jason, Keyop, Tiny, and the villainous Zoltar. With 18 catalogued appearances rooted entirely in the Battle of the Planets universe, he's a focused, committed presence in that beloved franchise — the kind of character who rewards fans who dig into Bronze Age science-fiction comics beyond the mainstream publishers. If that era of bold, imaginative storytelling speaks to you, Mark is well worth seeking out.
