Leap-Frog is the name of several characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The first incarnation of Leap Frog, Vincent Patilio, first appeared in Daredevil #25 (February 1967).[1] The second incarnation, Buford Lange, debuted in Daredevil (vol. 2) #16 (July 2001).
The characters use a frog suit containing electrical coils on the soles of each of the two flippers which allow the wearer to leap great distances up to 60 ft (18 m) high or 100 ft (30 m) long.[2] The boots' power source is worn on their backs like a backpack, and triggered via hidden buttons in their gloves. Additionally, the costume later had a strength-boosting exoskeleton, along with substantial internal padding and a computer-guided system for leaping accuracy.
