Marvel Comics Figure #515: Forgotten Characters #8/20 Ultragirl

 

Ultragirl (real name Susanna "Suzy" Lauren Sherman, also known by her Kree birth name Tsu-Zana) is a superheroine appearing in comic books by Marvel Comics.

Ultragirl was created by writer Barbara Kesel and artist Leonard Kirk. She made her comic book debut in November 1996 in her own three-issue miniseries, Ultragirl #1.

Character History and Origin: 

Suzy grew up in Southern California believing she was an ordinary human. As a teenager, she attempted to break into the modeling industry. However, her plans changed drastically when her superpowers suddenly awakened, shifting her body shape into that of an athletic bodybuilder.

During a photo shoot in Central Park, she was attacked by a dormant Sentinel robot. The robot identified her not as a human mutant, but as a mutant Kree warrior. 

Over her career, she has been affiliated with teams like the New Warriors, the 50-State Initiative, and the Avengers Resistance.

According to detailed comic databases like Comic Vine's Character Page, Ultragirl has appeared in 96 comic book issues. Her most prominent runs include her self-titled 1996 miniseries, a lengthy stint in Avengers: The Initiative (22 issues), and roles in major event tie-ins like Fear Itself: Youth in Revolt.

Facts:

Unlike standard heroes motivated solely by tragedy or altruism, Suzy originally embraced the superhero lifestyle partly as a career alternative after her physical changes ruined her high fashion modeling aspirations.

During the Dark Reign storyline, Ultragirl wore a replica of Carol Danvers' classic black-and-lightning-bolt Ms. Marvel uniform. However, Norman Osborn forced her to legally surrender the costume because he had acquired the rights to the "Ms. Marvel" name to launch his own Dark Avengers version (Moonstone).

After the Dark Reign era ended, Ultragirl tried out for a position with the New Avengers by applying to be a live-in nanny for Luke Cage and Jessica Jones' baby daughter, Danielle. She was ultimately rejected in favor of Squirrel Girl, leaving her quite offended when the rest of the Avengers couldn't even recall her name.

Marvel Comics Figure #514: Forgotten Characters #7/20 Rama Tut

 Rama-Tut is one of the most fascinating and historically significant identities of Kang the Conqueror, the legendary time-traveling warlord of Marvel Comics.

The character's real name is Nathaniel Richards, a brilliant scientist born in a peaceful, utopian version of the 30th (or 31st) century. Bored with his perfect era, Nathaniel discovers time-travel technology and voyages back to Ancient Egypt (around 2960 BC). 

After crash-landing in a Sphinx-shaped starship, he uses his futuristic weaponry and mind-controlling devices to conquer the local population, crowning himself Pharaoh Rama-Tut.

His tyrannical rule comes to an end when he clashes with the Fantastic Four, who had traveled back in time. The heroes spark a rebellion, forcing Rama-Tut to flee into the timestream. 

Later in his personal timeline, this same man goes on to become Kang the Conqueror, Immortus, and the Scarlet Centurion.

The character was created by the legendary Marvel duo, writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby.

He made his debut in Fantastic Four #19, the issue was published in October 1963.

He is technically the "First" Kang: from a publishing standpoint, Rama-Tut appeared in comics before Kang the Conqueror (who debuted under the name "Kang" in 1964's Avengers #8). 

Marvel later connected the dots through time travel, revealing they were the exact same person at different points in life.

During his Egyptian reign, Rama-Tut tried to locate and manipulate a young mutant slave named En Sabah Nur to make him his heir. The technology Rama-Tut brought to the past ultimately triggered the mutant's powers, transforming him into Apocalypse, one of the X-Men's greatest villains.

Marvel Comics Figure #513: Forgotten Characters #6/20 Ravonna

 My Marvel 1/21 figure number 513. Ravonna Rensleyer.

Ravonna Renslayer is a Marvel Comics time-traveling character created by Stan Lee and Don Heck in 1965 (first appearance: Avengers #23).

In the comics, she is a 40th-century princess loved by Kang the Conqueror. 

After sacrificing herself to save him, she falls into a coma; once revived, she feels betrayed by Kang's choices and seeks revenge under the alias Terminatrix.

In the MCU, she is played by Gugu Mbatha-Raw in the Disney+ series Loki. Reimagined as a strict TVA judge, she eventually discovers she is a mind-wiped human variant who once served as the top general for He Who Remains (a Kang variant).

Marvel Comics Figure #512: Forgotten Characters #5/20 Satannish

Dear followers, 

Meet Satannish, the powerful Hell-Lord co-created by writer Roy Thomas and designer Gene Colan. 

He debuted in Doctor Strange #174 (November 1968) and holds around 45 comic appearances. 

Born from remnants of primordial evil energy and guided by Dormammu, this arch-demon grants mortals dark powers in exchange for their souls, frequently clashing with Doctor Strange and his demonic rival, Mephisto. 

To bring this sinister figure to life, I generated a 3D base using Meshy AI, manually re-sculpted the details in SculptGL, and 3D printed it on an Anycubic Photon Mono 7. 

Finally, I hand-painted him using Amati, Citadel, and Vallejo Model Colors, applying deep Vallejo washes to emphasize his terrifying look.

Hope you like the final result.

ADAM Unit Zero (often simply called Zero) is a highly advanced android from the 39th century. 

Discovered and reprogrammed by the villain Stryfe, Zero serves as his silent, loyal right hand, using his primary ability to open teleportation portals across space and time.

After traveling back to the 20th century with the Mutant Liberation Front, the robot gradually begins to develop human consciousness and emotions. He makes the ultimate sacrifice destroying himself to prevent the spread of the deadly Legacy Virus.

The character was created by writer Louise Simonson and comic book artist Rob Liefeld. He made his very first appearance in New Mutants #86 (published in late 1989), an issue that also marked the debut of Stryfe himself and ushered in a newer, darker era for Marvel's young mutant team.

Sharon Ventura first appeared in The Thing #27 (September 1985), created by writer Mike Carlin and penciler Ron Wilson, with Paul Ryan serving as the issue's first inker.

Dramatically, after being exposed to cosmic radiation, she mutated into a rock-skinned form similar to Ben Grimm, taking on the alias She-Thing.  Here she's represented in the early Ms. Marvel costume Version.
