Marvel Legacy is promising to bring back a lot of beloved characters from the company's storied history, but that doesn't mean the publisher's is limiting itself to its roster of top shelf heroes and villains. Not Brand Echh, a satirical comic published by Marvel for 13 issues between August 1967 and May 1969, will return for a one-shot later in December 2017.

The comic's mascot is Forbush Man (also known as Irving Forbush), a superhero wannabe who works for Marble Comics and lives with his Auntie Mayhem. The character's "costume: consists of a pot on his head and red long johns with a white "F" on the front. Many comic legends, including Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Marie Severin and Roy Thomas, contributed to the original series. The tradition continues in the one-shot, which will see stories from the likes of Nick Spencer, Gurihiru and more.
