Nathaniel Richards

Few characters carry the weight of comics history quite like Nathaniel Richards, who made his Bronze Age entrance in Vengeur #7 in 1973, brought to life by the legendary partnership of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Published under Panini France, this figure has maintained a remarkable presence across more than five decades — 1973 all the way to 2025 — turning up across titles like Thor, Ombrax-Saga, and Captain America et Spider-Man. The company he keeps is genuinely rarefied: Thor, Captain America, Hank Pym, and the formidable Kang all share his pages, placing him at the heart of some seriously consequential comics storytelling. With over 37 catalog appearances and at least one recognized key issue to his name, Nathaniel Richards is the kind of character that rewards the collector who digs a little deeper.
