Salvaged Universe/Wonderman

Wonderman is an American comic book series published by IDW Publishing as part of its Salvaged Universe line. The comic is loosely inspired by the public domain hero of a similar name, Wonder Man, who was published by Fox Features and only ever made one appearance, the company having been sued over Wonder Man's similarities to Superman.

Main

 * Ted Carson/Wonderman - the main protagonist of the series, Ted Carson is a television journalist who was infamous for his weak will. After failing to stop a criminal due to his cowardice, he travels the world to find himself and is eventually met by a Tibetan mystic who trained Carson for around a year to toughen him up before awarding him a magic ring that turns him into the mightiest man alive so long as he is wearing it. With a renewed sense of self, he returned home, swearing to always do good and never be a pushover again.

Supporting

 * IBC Incorporated - the International Broadcasting Channel, Carson's employers based out of the fictional Brass City in the United States.
 * Archibald Jones
 * Brenda Lee Jones
 * The Mystic - Carson's mentor and the man who gave him his magic ring. He is an immortal Tibetan man with a mysterious past, which is explored throughout the series, revealing that he is actually immortal and he had stolen the magic ring hundreds of years ago from its rightful owners, who he deemed unworthy of its power. Though hard to read and sometimes even hard to understand, he seems to be a generally benevolent figure.

Antagonists
