The Strangers is the title of a comic book series created and written by Steve Englehart. It was originally drawn by Rick Hoberg for Malibu Comics' Ultraverse imprint which was bought by Marvel Comics during the 1990s.
The Strangers consisted of a group of random passengers on a cable car who were struck by what they believed to be a bolt of lightning, but was actually a "jumpstart": one of the bursts of energy was emitted by the Entity from the Moon, which transformed them into "Ultras".
