Author Description

Hailed as a cultural icon in Hong Kong and Japan, on par with our own Superman and Batman, Ultraman has punched, kicked, and karate-chopped his way into the hearts of fans internationally for nearly four decades. Known and love the world over, the monster-smashing sci-fi superstar comes to Dark Horse courtesy of writer Tony Wong and Koo Fuk Lung (Hong Kong's Solar Lord), with dynamic new covers by UDON. This incarnation of Ultraman, now called "Tiga," finds the 100-foot tall hero revived in the year 2049 and facing a world ill-equipped to handle the onslaught of gigantic beasts that are peppering the globe. Relying on his martial-arts prowess and his three modes of combat - Sky (flight and speed), Power (strength), and Omni (a balance of the two) - Tiga goes toe to toe with the most terrifying collection of monstrous giants and alien invaders ever to plague the planet.
