Notes

• Although this character was originally introduced during DC's Earth-One era of publication, their existence following the events of the 1985-86 limited series Crisis on Infinite Earths remains intact. However, some elements of the character's Pre-Crisis history may have been altered or removed for Post-Crisis New Earth continuity, and should be considered apocryphal.
• Although it has been established that Ben Hunter was married prior to siring his sons, Phil and Nick, it is unknown whether Ben remained married in the latter years of his life.

Trivia

• Although Ben Hunter's activities chronologically take place prior to those of his own children, the Hunter twins actually predate their father's first appearance by several issues. Nick and Phil Hunter first appeared in Our Fighting Forces #99.
