Does Wonder Woman fly ?
I now it used to be that she could glide on air currents. If that's the case, does it act like a hang glider, where she's mostly drifting and not able to go higher ?

The Owl premiered in DD # 3 (8/64) and later appeared in Avengers # 54 (7/68) as part of the Masters of Evil. The Owl was never a member of the Masters of Evil in any of its incarnations. The MoF in Avengers #54 were Ultron (as The Crimson Cowl), Klaw, The Melter, Radioactive Man, Whirlwind, and the heroic Black Knight, who infiltrated the team posing as his late uncle, the villainous Black Knight. Owl's first non-DD appearance was in The Cat #2 (January 1973). Cei-U! I summon the straight dope! |

Thanks, hondo - I'm glad ONE Daredevil villain crossed over during the Silver Age! One more: Did the Masked Maurauder (who looked like he was primed to be DDs Doctor Doom) re-appear after he died in DD # 20-something? |

Because I'm crazy that way, I just went thru the first 20 issues of Daredevil in the GCD and did a Character search on all the villains who were introduced in one of those issues. Here is the first non-Daredevil appearance I can find for each of them:
Owl - The Cat #2, 1/73
Killgrave - Marvel Tales #100, 2/79
Matador - Spider-Man's Tangled Web #13 6/02
Mr. Fear - Doctor Strange, Sorceror Supreme #33, 9/91
Stilt-Man - Captain America #191, 11/75
Ani-Men - Marvel Team-Up #25, 9/74 or X-men #94, 8/75 if MTU is disqualified
Plunderer - Tales To Astonish #95, 9/67
Masked Marauder - Iron Man #60, 7/73
Gladiator - Iron Man #7, 11/68
So The Plunderer seems to take the prize, but now the question is, is it the same Plunderer? The one in Daredevil #12-14 is Lord Parnival Plunder, and the one that battled the Sub-Mariner in TTA is Edgar Plunder. The GCD is not clear on the connection between the two.

I hadn't thought of that. You are correct sir ! |

Did the Masked Maurauder (who looked like he was primed to be DDs Doctor Doom) re-appear after he died in DD # 20-something? He did indeed, popping up in Iron Man, Werewolf By Night, and Spectacular Spider-Man. Oddly enough, he didn't retackle Daredevil after his return (that disintegrator he fell into was actually a teleporter), at least not as of 1986. Oh, and Rob: Parnival and Edgar Plunder are the same character. The name change was an editorial error a la Bruce/Bob Banner. Cei-U! I summon the quick answers! |

So, after the recent Secret wars and its Crisis-like concept, is there still a Marvel multiverse?
It would be a pity if Arkon, Xemu the merciless or the original Guardians of the galaxy were now without a home!

Don't know about the others, but the original Guardians of the Galaxy are currently appearing in the Guardians of Infinity comic. |

I love multiverses, and Marvel has a few well-established ones that I would hate to see sacrificed at the altar of Retconinus, god of big events that make a mess of everything for a quick buck. (Boy, those Romans really had a god for everything, didn't they?) |

What is the earliest reprinting of Amazing Fantasy 15? I know there is a Marvel Tales issue (#137 I believe???) but was it reprinted in anything earlier. A treasury perhaps?

From MileHighComics "Reprints: Amazing Fantasy 15 (1st Spider-Man) by Steve Ditko; Hulk 1 by Jack Kirby, Tales to Astonish 35 (Ant-Man); Tales to Astonish 49 (Giant Man), Tales of Suspense 39 & 48 (1st Iron Man), Journey into Mystery 83 (1st Thor) by Kirby, and Sgt. Fury 1 by Kirby." I believe it was supposed to be a one shot, but ended up an ongoing reprint series. |

The Fireside edition of Origins of Marvel Comics circa 1974 was the earliest I was aware of...but there were a couple of reprints in the 70s...the Pocket Books Spidey books had it, the Story of Spider-Man by Ideals Corp (another book format) had it. A quick check of the GCD shows it was reprinted in the 1964 MArvel Tales Annual #1 as the earliest American reprint (GCD credits a UK reprint in Out of this World in '63). -M Edit: oops Repti beat me to it |

At one point, I think I counted that I owned six different reprints of that AF #15 story, without really seeking any out.
