The series is co-written by Kyle Higgins (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) and Mat Groom (Self/Made) with art by Francesco Manna (Avengers), Michael Cho (Captain America), and Gurihiru (Avatar: The Last Airbender). Cho will pencil the back-up story of the first issue, which will retell Ultra Q, the first entry of the Ultraman universe in an updated "Marvel way", reverberating with the book's main story as a period piece.
The Rise of Ultraman #1 is set for a September release.
