Ron Simmons

Stepping straight out of the squared circle and onto the comics page, Ron Simmons made his four-color debut in Marvel's 1992 launch of WCW World Championship Wrestling — a title that brought the high-voltage world of professional wrestling to comics readers right at the dawn of the Modern Age. Across a compact but spirited run through 1992–1993, he shares the page with a who's-who of WCW royalty: Sting, Arn Anderson, Paul E. Dangerously, and "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton, making these issues a genuine time capsule of a beloved era in wrestling history. With appearances spanning the main series, World Championship Wrestling, and the WCW World Championship Wrestling Annual 1993, Simmons is woven throughout the full fabric of Marvel's WCW universe. For collectors who love the overlap of wrestling nostalgia and comics history, this short-run gem is absolutely worth tracking down.
