General Nick Fury
General Nick Fury is a high-ranking military officer in Marvel's Ultimate Universe, serving as a commanding authority figure who crosses paths with Spider-Man and other major heroes in that continuity's reimagined version of the classic S.H.I.E.L.D. director.
A commanding presence in Marvel's Ultimate Universe, General Nick Fury made his debut in Ultimate Spider-Man #73 in 2005, stepping onto the modern stage courtesy of the legendary creative duo of Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley. Over a sixteen-year publishing run, he carved out a consistent role across Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate Comics Spider-Man, and Spider-Men, keeping some of Marvel's heaviest hitters as company — Spider-Man, Peter Parker, Tony Stark, and Mary Jane Watson all share his pages. With 44 catalog appearances and at least one key collector issue to his name, this is a figure who quietly anchors some of the most celebrated corners of the Ultimate Marvel era — well worth tracking down for any fan serious about that groundbreaking line.
