Général Ross

Général Ross is the French-language edition of Thunderbolt Ross, the hard-nosed U.S. Army general who relentlessly pursues the Hulk. Father of Betty Ross and longtime antagonist of Bruce Banner, he dedicates himself to capturing or destroying the gamma-powered monster.

A Silver Age stalwart brought to French readers through Arédit-Artima's beloved catalog, Général Ross made his debut in Fantask #5 in 1969, courtesy of the legendary creative partnership of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Over a remarkable span stretching nearly five decades, this commanding figure has kept extraordinary company — sharing pages with the Hulk, Bruce Banner, Betty Ross, and even Steve Rogers himself. His appearances across Etranges Aventures, Gamma la bombe qui a créé Hulk, and Fantastic Four : L'intégrale paint a portrait of a character woven deep into the fabric of Marvel's most dramatic corners, and with a key issue among his collected appearances, he's a genuine find for the Franco-Belgian comics enthusiast who loves their Silver Age Marvel served with a distinctly French flair.
