Russell debuted back in Marvel Spotlight in 1971, before gaining his own comic series in 1972. Bernal’s character is a descendant of Grigori Russoff, who was cursed with the ability to turn into a werewolf after battling Dracula in 1795.
Though the curse was dormant for generations, it was reawakened by Jack’s grandfather after he copied the Darkhold, which was last seen in Doctor Strange: In The Multiverse of Madness.
