Ultimo is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist Gene Colan, the character first appeared in Tales of Suspense #76 (April 1966). Ultimo is a humanoid android, ranging in height from 25 to 60 feet, with immense destructive power. After crash-landing on Earth, Ultimo remains dormant for several years until the Mandarin discovers and reprograms him. Initially serving as a powerful weapon for the Mandarin, Ultimo has the ability to absorb unlimited energy and adapt to any environment. His strength is so formidable that it took the combined efforts of the Avengers and other heroes to defeat him.
