Ryder

A product of Marvel's action-packed Modern Age, Ryder burst onto the scene in 2008's Avengers: The Initiative #16, arriving at one of the most turbulent periods in Marvel history. This compact but memorable character carved out a niche across Avengers: The Initiative and Skrull Kill Krew, sharing the page with a colorful cast including 3-D Man, Delroy Garrett Jr., and Riot. With 14 catalog appearances spread across nearly a decade, Ryder is the kind of deep-cut Marvel figure that rewards the dedicated reader hunting through the rich corners of Initiative-era storytelling.
