The Icicle

Few characters announce themselves quite like The Icicle — making a first impression in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe in 1987, essentially DC's own hall-of-fame roster, which speaks to the character's established place in the publisher's mythology from the Copper Age onward. With appearances spanning over three decades and a presence in landmark series like JSA by Geoff Johns, Justice League of America, and Infinity, Inc., The Icicle has kept genuinely rarefied company — sharing pages with Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, and both Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne in their civilian lives. It's a modest catalog footprint, but every appearance lands in consequential DC territory, making each one count for collectors and continuity enthusiasts alike.
