Warning: Spoilers for The Invincible Iron Man #10!A staple of Spider-Man's rogues' gallery, Sandman completes his MCU redemption arc by helping out Iron Man and officially becoming a hero. When introduced on-screen in Spider-Man 3, Flint Marko aka Sandman is portrayed as more of an anti-hero, having turned to a life of crime strictly to fund his sickly daughter's necessary treatments.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The comics bring Sandman's heroic ambitions full circle in The Invincible Iron Man #10 by Gerry Duggan, Juan Frigeri, Bryan Valenza, and VC's Joe Caramagna. During this series, Tony Stark's best friend Rhodey has gotten himself thrown in prison for trying to help Iron Man destroy Stark Unlimited, now owned by Orchis leader, Feilong.
The Sandman and Living Laser Save Rhodey's Life Moments before Rhodey is almost shanked, those arrangements arrive in the form of Living Laser and the Sandman, both of whom have been hired personally by Fisk to protect Rhodey. What's most impressive in Sandman's case is that, unlike Living Laser, Rhodey, or any of the other prisoners, he's not wearing a prison jumpsuit.
The Sandman is a Hero Again Although the MCU depiction is the one audiences may be the most familiar with, this isn't the first time that the comics have placed Sandman in a heroic position. Most impressively, in Avengers #329, the Sandman receives a pardon out of prison from the President of the United States and a spot on the Avengers as a reserve member, with Captain America personally vouching for how much Marko had changed his ways.
Despite being paid to do his job in this issue, Sandman still puts himself in the role of a savior when he doesn't have to, especially at a prison where he is not a prisoner. It's an appropriately murky gray area for the anti-hero, but it is one that certainly speaks to his future potential. Assuming this hero status sticks, Flint Marko could be on course to permanently fulfilling his redemption arc again in the comics, hopefully sticking to it this time.
