Zoma the Watcher

A mysterious figure who stepped out of the shadows in Dan Slott and Juan Bobillo's celebrated She-Hulk run, Zoma the Watcher made their Marvel debut in 2004 amid one of the most inventive Modern Age takes on the Jade Giantess. With only a handful of appearances to their name, Zoma is a rare and curious presence — the kind of enigmatic background player that devoted collectors love to track down — sharing pages with the likes of Jennifer Walters, the cosmic observer Uatu, and even Valkyrie. Brief in tenure but intriguing in context, Zoma is a small but genuine piece of a run that fans of smart, witty Marvel comics still celebrate.
