Sean Connery
A celebrity caricature rather than a costumed crusader, this Sean Connery — brought to life by creator Bob Schochet in the pages of Comics Scene in 1992 — represents the fun, pop-culture-savvy side of the Copper/Modern Age, where Hollywood royalty could turn up alongside the likes of Ghost Rider and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Spanning an eclectic twenty-year run across Comics Scene, Mad's Greatest Artists: Mort Drucker, and Twisted Toyfare Theatre, this is a character whose appeal lives in satire, celebrity, and the irreverent humor those titles did so well. With one collector-recognized key issue to his name and only three catalog appearances, he's a genuine rarity — a small but memorable corner of comics history for the fan who loves the medium's wilder, more playful edges.
