Where it came from
Spitfire and the Troubleshooters was launched by Marvel Comics in 1986 as part of the company's New Universe imprint, an ambitious experiment designed to ground stories in a realistic, contemporary setting without the baggage of established Marvel continuity. The series centered on Jenny Swensen, an engineer who inherits an experimental powered exoskeleton, and it aimed to blend high-stakes science fiction with corporate intrigue and grounded character development.
The creative direction for the series leaned into the mid-eighties aesthetic of techno-thrillers and industrial suspense. By the ninth issue, the title had been rebranded as 'Codename: Spitfire' as part of an editorial shift to reinvigorate interest in the imprint. While the New Universe line struggled to find a lasting audience and was canceled within a few years, the series remains a notable example of Marvel's attempt to diversify its editorial approach during a transformative decade for the comic book industry.
