Vostok-X

A striking presence from DC's Modern Age, Vostok-X made their debut in 2014's Aquaman and the Others #3, brought to life by the accomplished team of Dan Jurgens and Lan Medina. Though their time in the spotlight has been brief — just a handful of catalogued appearances across Aquaman and the Others and Justice League United — this character shares pages with heavy hitters like Batman, Superman, and Prisoner of War, signaling a place in some genuinely consequential DC storytelling. For collectors with an eye for underexplored Modern Age gems, Vostok-X is exactly the kind of intriguing figure worth tracking down before the rest of the world catches up.
