Sebastian Shaw

[DodgerGirl]

I saw in the app Marvel Strike Force a Marvel character named Sebastian Shaw and I would like to know a bit more about him? From what I learned Sebastian Shaw is a villain and has powers similar to Doctor Strange. When did Sebastian Shaw make his debut in Marvel Comics? And has there been any action figures released of Sebastian Shaw as well?

Shaw is a character with powers to absorb energy to enhance his own strenght. he may have dabbled in some obscure ways to enhance tha,t but he is not a sorcerer like Doctor Strange. He is typically associated with The Hellfire Club, a group of evil mutants who try to run the world in secrecy, where he is the "Black King" (as opposed to the White Queen, Emma Frost). This has changed over the years though.

Shaw is the character portrayed by Kevin Bacon in the movie X-Men: First Class.
