Who is Him?

Him is a perfect artificial being created by a group of scientists called the Enclave, who sought to engineer the ultimate human. Emerging from his cocoon with godlike power and beauty, he quickly rejected his creators' control and escaped into the cosmos.

Born from the visionary partnership of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in Fantastic Four #66 (1967), Him is one of Marvel's most intriguing Silver Age creations β€” a mysterious, otherworldly figure whose debut in that landmark issue made an immediate impression on the Marvel Universe. Over a remarkable span stretching more than five decades, this enigmatic being has kept extraordinary company, sharing pages with titans like Thor, Captain America, Reed Richards, and Daredevil. Affiliated with the Fantastic Four and appearing across Thor and the broader Marvel cosmos, Him carries the unmistakable stamp of the Lee-Kirby era's boundless ambition β€” a character whose very name suggests something vast, elemental, and not quite like anything else in comics.
