Super Heroes Encountered by Rom
This is a complete list of all the heroes and other non-villainous denizens of the Marvel Universe that Rom encountered in his travels. If someone only appeared in Rom, but did not actually encounter Rom, the entry will say "Appeared" instead of "Encountered." Non-continuity appearances (insignificant flashbacks, etc.) are usually not included. People who appeared as part of a team will have the name of the team in braces after their name. For other denizens of the Marvel Universe that Rom encountered, see the lists of super villains and cosmic beings.

Rom heard of the Hulk a few times before encountering him, notably
from the Metal Master and the
Missing Link. This is not surprising as Bill Mantlo was writing both
Rom and The Incredible Hulk at the time. However, it
was only at the last minute, so to speak, that Mantlo managed to
squeeze in a meeting for the two before sending the Hulk off to the
Crossroads dimension. By the time the Hulk was returned to Earth,
Rom had left the planet and Mantlo was no longer writing Hulk.
