First Appearance: Marvel Mangaverse: New Dawn #1

In the late 1990 early 2000, Manga began to explode in popularity in the State. As such, Marvel tried to capitalize on this by creating their own line of Manga theme comics. They hired manga artists and writers and began creating alternate versions of their most popular character. Spider-man became a ninja, Tigra was Dr. Strange’s familiar, Punisher was a Geisha and the Avengers combined to become a mech called Iron Man. Yeah it was weird. Note: This universe had nothing to do with previous Manga, like the Spider-man manga, or the current manga like Deadpool.
