Mr. Big

A Bronze Age Marvel UK villain who debuted as an adversary in the pages of Hulk Comic, Mr. Big tangled with street-level and costumed heroes alike, including Night-Raven and Captain Britain, establishing himself as a persistent criminal presence in the darker corners of the Marvel UK universe.

Jack Kirby brought Mr. Big to life in the pages of Hulk Comic #7 in 1979, a Bronze Age debut from Marvel UK that planted this villain firmly in the wilder, more eclectic corner of the Marvel universe. Over a surprisingly long publishing footprint stretching nearly four decades, Mr. Big has crossed paths with some seriously heavy hitters — Night-Raven, Captain Britain, Brian Braddock, Ant-Man, and Meggan among them — turning up across Captain Britain and Night Raven: From the Marvel UK Vaults as a recurring presence in that distinctly British slice of Marvel history. With a Kirby pedigree and at least one collector-recognized key issue to his name, Mr. Big is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that reminds you how rich and rewarding the Marvel UK back catalogue truly is.
