*Marvel: Leading our Good Doctor releases this week: The Black Knight has a long and distinguished history at Marvel. Originally, a heroic knight at the court of King Arthur in the Atlas series of the 1950s, the name was revived in the Silver Age, first as the villainous foe of Giant-Man, and later as the new Black Knight (Dane Whitman) in the Avengers and elsewhere in the Marvel Universe (both US & UK). Avengers #47 features the first appearance of Dane Whitman, with him becoming the Black Knight in #48.
