Augustus Roman

Augustus Roman is one of those fascinating cases where a character's comic book footprint spans wildly different worlds — debuting in the pages of Robotech II: The Sentinels in 1989, courtesy of Tom Mason, Chris Ulm, and Jason Waltrip, before eventually finding a home in the Marvel Universe decades later. His catalog appearances place him in the company of heavy hitters like Spider-Man, Sam Wilson, Ms. Marvel, and the Regent across Amazing Spider-Man and its Worldwide run, suggesting he carved out a meaningful role in that corner of Marvel's modern era. With a publishing presence stretching from the Copper Age all the way to 2016, Augustus Roman is a quiet curiosity worth tracking down — a character whose rare appearances only make each one feel more significant.
