Jim Ross

Real-life WCW broadcaster Jim Ross appears as himself in Marvel's licensed WCW comic series, bringing his role as a ringside commentator and voice of professional wrestling from television directly onto the comic page.

Stepping out of the broadcast booth and onto the comic page, Jim Ross made his four-color debut in 1992's WCW World Championship Wrestling #1, brought to life by Mike Lackey and Ron Wilson in a Marvel Comics series that captured the electric world of professional wrestling for a new generation of fans. Across nearly three decades of comics history, the legendary voice of wrestling found a home in titles like World Championship Wrestling and WWE Heroes, sharing pages with icons like Sting, Arn Anderson, and Ron Simmons. It's a genuinely unique corner of the Copper and Modern Age — where sports entertainment and superhero publishing collided — and for collectors who love that wild crossover territory, Jim Ross is a fascinating figure to track down.
