Général "Thunderbolt" Ross
Few characters embody the tension at the heart of a classic Marvel rivalry quite like Général "Thunderbolt" Ross, who made his catalog debut in Strange #103 in 1978 — a Bronze Age introduction courtesy of the legendary creative trio of Gerry Conway, John Romita, and Gil Kane. Across a remarkable 33-year span in this catalog, Ross turns up most frequently in Hulk editions, keeping company with Bruce Banner, the Hulk himself, Rick Jones, Betty Ross, and even Captain America — a roster that speaks to the high-stakes world he inhabits. Published through Panini France, these appearances offer francophone readers a window into one of Marvel's most enduring and complicated figures, a man whose story is inseparable from the green-skinned titan he pursues. If you're building out a serious Hulk collection, Ross is the thread that runs through it all — relentless, driven, and utterly essential to the saga.
