About the series
A short-lived but memorably over-the-top Marvel series from 1989–1990, Nth Man: The Ultimate Ninja is a 16-issue action thriller defined by the kinetic, muscular art of Ron Wagner and Dale Keown, with writer Larry Hama weaving a globe-trotting tale of shadowy conspiracies and superhuman combat. The series follows a lone operative wielding the mysterious "nth power"—a force granting incredible strength and speed—as he battles a secret organization hell-bent on world domination. It stands out as a high-octane, mid-tier Marvel title that captures the era's fascination with gritty, ninja-fueled espionage, offering a raw, visceral counterpoint to the publisher's more polished superhero fare.
