Ultraman

Fresh from a 2024 debut by artist Dike Ruan, this Marvel incarnation of Ultraman arrives in the Modern Age with serious company to keep — sharing pages with Spider-Man, Tony Stark, Scott Summers, and Storm across a handful of high-profile titles. Though still early in their comics journey with just six catalog appearances, Ultraman has already made an impression across Ultraman x the Avengers, All-New Spider-Gwen: The Ghost-Spider, and Ultimate X-Men — a remarkably diverse spread for such a new presence. For collectors with an eye for ground-floor opportunities, a debut issue from 2024 rubbing shoulders with Marvel's heaviest hitters is exactly the kind of entry worth marking.
