Janis Jones
Born into the pages of Peter David and George Pérez's Hulk: Future Imperfect #1 in 1992, Janis Jones arrived at the dawn of the Modern Age as a figure tied to one of Marvel's most celebrated dystopian stories. Over three decades she's carved out a presence across titles like Maestro: World War M, Abominations, and The Incredible Hulk, sharing the page with heavy hitters like Bruce Banner, the Hulk, the Maestro, and Rick Jones — as compelling a corner of the Marvel Universe as you'll find. With 19 catalog appearances and two recognized key issues to her name, she's a character whose staying power from 1992 all the way through 2023 speaks for itself. If you love the darker, more complex side of Marvel storytelling, Janis Jones is absolutely worth tracking down.
