Ross Horton

Ross Horton is a supporting character from the British Marvel universe who appears alongside Captain Britain (Brian Braddock), helping ground the series in everyday human drama amid threats like the Highwayman and the Manipulator.

A Marvel UK original born in the Bronze Age pages of Captain Britain #37 (1977), Ross Horton is one of those quietly compelling supporting figures who help give a superhero universe its texture and weight. Debuting under the hands of Len Wein, Larry Lieber, and Ron Wilson, he's spent over four decades woven into the fabric of British Marvel, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Captain Britain himself, Brian Braddock, and a rogues' gallery that includes the Highwayman and the sinister Manipulator. With appearances spread across Captain Britain, Super Spider-Man, and the handsome Captain Britain Omnibus, and at least one collector-significant key issue to his name, Ross Horton is a rewarding discovery for anyone digging deep into the rich, underappreciated world of Marvel UK.
