big hero six number one in the Marvel
Universe there are heroes across the

in certain areas like New York City for
many years the mighty nation of Japan
boasted only one a level super hero
Sunfire whose mutant abilities were
powered by the Sun itself all of that
changed in 1998 with the first issues of
Sun fire and big hero 6 when the series
began readers were shocked to learn that
the legendary Sun Fire had apparently
died Sun fires demise was mourned by his
greatest fan a thirteen-year-old boy
named Hiro takashina in addition to
being a huge admirer of the fallen super
being Hiro also happened to be an
incredible genius among his creations
was the massive baymax a robot that Hiro
had created himself who acted as his
guardian
nanni protector and fast friend in a
flashback to a period before Sun fires
demise readers saw Hiro confronted by
the silver samurai sometimes villain who
had gone straight he explained to Hiro
that Japan needed a heroic team
equivalent to that of the Fantastic Four
or alpha flight the Geary industrial
corporation was funding the creation of
such a team which was to be named big
hero 6 the silver samurai had been
charged with forming this battalion and
he wanted Hiro and baymax to be part of
it Tito however refused later
Hedo Locke ated his idol Sunfire only to
discover that he was dying of a
mysterious illness
baymax who could transform into a
dragon-like creature protected Hiro from
Sun fires erratic power fluxes soon they
were joined by the silver samurai and
his team gogo Tomago who could control
huge amounts of energy and
lemon who carried a purse that contained
every possible gadget needed for any
situation they hoped that Sunfire Hiro
and baymax would complete the big hero 6
squad Sunfire was taken away for
examination by the samurai and his team
and Hiro and baymax returned to their
home only to discover a ghost-like being
named the ever eight had kidnapped
Hiro’s mother
Kido alerted big hero 6 to the problem
and the team went on the attack it
turned out that every eight from the
spirits of all souls lost in the atomic
attacks on Japan in the 1940s over time
he had perversely come to believe that
this horrendous attack ended up creating
a stronger Japan now he wished to
recreate another deadly atomic tragedy
to push the Japanese people to an even
greater height and he needed Sun fires
power to make this happen
Sunfire and big hero 6 defeated every
but apparently at the cost of Sun fires
life however he doe suspected otherwise
and he was proved right
Sunfire confessed that he had faked his
own death a secret that Hiro said he
would keep and thus began the career of
big hero 6
although Sun Fire and the silver samurai
eventually left the team they have been
replaced by others such as Fred Zilla
and wasabi no ginger although popular
the big hero six team did not initially
make the leap over to other media that
changed with the 2014 release of the
immensely successful big hero 6 movie by
Disney there are some changes to the
group and its origin in this film
version but it remains relatively
faithful to the spirit of the original
