Mantra is the name of the lead character, an Ultra (superhero) within Malibu's Ultraverse line of comics.

In the 1990s, Lukasz' leader Archimage was betrayed by one of his men and captured by Boneyard, leading to the permanent death of most of the warriors and a final reincarnation for others.

Mantra fools Dalmas into leaving his office and begins to search for evidence, but he is attacked by a magical construct called Kismet Deadly, created by Archimage with the intention of testing him.

Mantra defeats Kismet, and later found two of his old companions, Hamath and Yaron, reincarnated as an old man and a dog respectively.

[4] Boneyard tries to force Mantra to become his fourth wife, but she escapes with help of Warstrike and the local resistance.

[5] Sometime later, Mantra fights a demon vassal of Boneyard that had adopted the form of a wolf cartoon character.

[7] During the Break-Thru event, Mantra helps other heroes in fighting the minions of the villain Rex Mundi while protecting Amber Hunt.

He, Warstrike, Eden Blake (now back in possession of her body), Boneyard and other heroes and villains were transported to the Godwheel by the god Argus.

Lukasz, Warstrike and other heroes are forced to make an alliance with Boneyard to search for certain magical objects.

With the help of the Marvel hero Thor, the Ultraheroes fight Necromantra, Primevil and a Lord Pumpkin-possessed Argus.

The pregnancy of Eden is abnormally short and the child born is revealed to be Necromantra, who proceeds to grow to adult size and fights Lukasz.

Primevil was infatuated with Mantra, however the Asgardian god Loki takes advantage of the situation and steals the Mind Gem.

[17] Following the Black September event, the Marvel-led Malibu began publication of a second volume with a new Mantra, removing the magic from Eden/Lukasz and casting it onto a minor character from the first series named Lauren Sherwood, a young blonde woman who was the teenage babysitter of Eden Blake's children.

[20][21] In June 2005, when asked by Newsarama whether Marvel had any plans to revive the Ultraverse, Marvel editor-in-chief Joe Quesada replied that: Let's just say that I wanted to bring these characters back in a very big way, but the way that the deal was initially structured, it's next to impossible to go back and publish these books.There are rumors out there that it has to do with a certain percentage of sales that has to be doled out to the creative teams.

While this is a logistical nightmare because of the way the initial deal was structured, it's not the reason why we have chosen not to go near these characters, there is a bigger one, but I really don't feel like it’s my place to make that dirty laundry public.
