The Question (1987)

Created by writer-artist Steve Ditko, the Question first appeared in Charlton Comics‘ Blue Beetle #1 (June 1967). The character was acquired by DC Comics in the early 1980s and incorporated into the DC Universe.

The Question’s secret identity was originally Vic Sage. However, after the events of the 2006–2007 miniseries 52, Sage’s protégé Renee Montoya took up his mantle and became his successor. Following the DC relaunch The New 52, Sage is reintroduced as a government agent.

As conceived by Ditko, the Question was an adherent of objectivism during his career as a minor Charlton hero, much like Ditko’s earlier creation, Mr. A. In a 1987–1990 solo series from DC, the character developed a Zen-like philosophy.
