About the series
In this six-issue Marvel series from the mid-1980s, writer/artist Rick Veitch explores the cosmic journey of a being who awakens as the sole survivor of a collapsed universe, now adrift in a new one. The story follows its protagonist's struggle to understand his role and purpose amid strange new realities and conflicts. Veitch's singular creative vision—handling both script and art—gives the series a distinctive, personal feel within Marvel's superhero landscape. A thoughtful, offbeat meditation on existence and identity, The One remains a cult favorite for its ambitious, introspective storytelling.
