Big Hero 6 is a fictional superhero team appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics and created by Man of Action.
Created by Steven T. Seagle and Duncan Rouleau, Big Hero 6 was first intended to appear in Alpha Flight #17 (December 1998). Instead, the team appeared in their own self-titled, three-issue miniseries by writer Scott Lobdell and artist Gus Vasquez. However, due to scheduling complications, the miniseries was published prior to Alpha Flight #17.
The team appears in Alpha Flight #9 (January 2005).
The team also appears in a subsequent five-issue miniseries, which was launched by Marvel Comics in September 2008 by creators Chris Claremont and David Nakayama.
The characters were licensed to IDW Publishing for Big Hero 6: The Series in 2019.
Team[edit]
In the original comics, the Japanese government needed a team of state-sanctioned superheroes, so they consulted the "Giri," a top-secret consortium of politicians and business entities. The Giri was formed to recruit and train potential individuals for "Big Hero 6," a team of superhuman operatives. Despite reservations by some members of the Giri, Silver Samurai was appointed as the team's first field commander.
In the second series the team battled Badgal, Brute, Gunsmith and Whiplash.
