Cloak and Dagger are a pair of superheroes in the Marvel Universe. Originally appearing in Spectacular Spider-Man #64 (March, 1982), they were created by Bill Mantlo and Ed Hannigan. While never having been A-listers along the lines of The Mighty Thor or Iron Man, with their series often getting canceled after a very short period, they have a distinct cult following, which is somewhat tinted by nostalgia due to their 1980s background. They often team-up with other superheroes, namely Spider-Man, who is a good friend. Before the series was cancelled, they also had a brief membership in the New Warriors. Their most memorable recent appearances were in Runaways and Dark X-Men.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Tandy Bowen and Tyrone Johnson, a pair of teenage runaways, are experimented on by the mob, who are trying to create a new drug substitute for heroin. It proves fatal to all they test it on but the pair, who gain superpowers from the event. Tandy can throw daggers of light, which can also purge unhealthy chemicals from a target as well, while Tyrone's powers were originally to suck people into a dark dimension where he would strip them of their light. Together, they battle the drug trade while trying to balance out normal lives.In 2013, Cloak and Dagger were made part of the Ultimate Marvel Universe when they debuted in Ultimate Comics Spider-Man with a new origin story. In this world, Ty Johnson and Tandy Bowen were the student council presidents of rival schools who, en route to Prom together, were involved in a vehicular accident, and then secretly taken by the Roxxon Corporation and pumped full of Dark Matter, resulting in the explosive awakening of their powers. They have been members of the All-New Ultimates.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })In 2016, Freeform (part of the Disney — ABC Television Group, and sister brand to Marvel) announced they'd ordered a television series starring the duo, starring Olivia Holt as Tandy and Aubrey Joseph as Tyrone. The series, also titled Cloak & Dagger, premiered in 2018. | |
