Another character that isn’t very well-known, Moon Knight, saw a resurrection in this graphic novel written by Warren Ellis. Illustrated by various artists, the book revolves around Marc Spectre, a man with a haunted past who dresses in white and fights crime.

This was the book that started the entire MCU. The Ultimates introduced the world to a modern version of the Avengers. No longer were these heroes the shining example of honor but more human and broken as well. This was also the book that saw the likeness of Samuel L. Jackson used as Nick Fury.
