Following The Rise of Ultraman and The Trials of Ultraman, Marvel Comics has announced that Tsuburaya Productions’ iconic hero is set to return this August for the new five-issue limited series Ultraman: The Mystery of the Ultraseven from writers Kyle Higgins and Mat Groom and rising star artist Davide Tinto.
“Kyle and I’s reimagination of this universe started with a long-term masterplan – which is why we featured Dan Moroboshi’s mysterious disappearance in the very first pages of The Rise of Ultraman,” said Mat Groom as part of the official announcement. “It’s so exciting to have reached the stage where we can now pull back the curtain on that mystery… and its world-shaking implications!”
