Spider-Man's Friends and Family

    Mary Jane Watson 

Mary Jane Watson

Debut: Issue #2: Along Came a Spider-Man

Peter's ex-wife and the mother of their daughter May "Mayday" Parker. The two separated after the stress of worrying about his daily superheroing got to her, only to discover that she was pregnant not long after she signed the divorce papers. The two meet monthly to catch up and talk about their daughter. The two are eating at a restaurant when the day Peter vanishes.


  • Amicable Exes: Despite their divorce, MJ is nothing but friendly and affectionate to Peter, even if they weren't as close as they once was. They still clearly care for one another and she's totally understanding when he has to ditch their monthly meeting at a fancy restaurant to go investigate a strange pillar of light in New York City.
  • Damsel in Distress: In almost classic fashion, MJ is kidnapped by Phil as a hostage due to his Sanity Slippage and May's decision to reveal his identity to the police.
  • Damsel out of Distress: Subverted. When Phil busts through a wall to seize her, MJ quickly grabs a pan and tries to club him in the face with it. Unfortunately for her, her assailant has Super-Strength and has no problems stopping her and kidnapping her anyway.
  • Exhausted Eye Bags: Her eyebags are as bad as Peter's, likely from the stress of raising their daughter mostly on her own and her own mixed feelings towards Peter.
  • Fantasy-Forbidding Mother: Mary Jane hoped that May would never develop superpowers and does her best to dissuade her when they do. She goes so far as to refuse to even discuss superheroes in the house, leaving May worried that her mom will hate her after sneaking out to be Spider-Girl one too many times. To her surprise, Mary Jane admits that there's no use in fighting the Chronic Hero Syndrome May got from her dad and encourages her after she's riddled with doubt from learning that Phil is the Hobgoblin.
  • Give Him a Normal Life: Peter and Mary Jane agreed to never tell May about his activities as Spider-Man in hopes of keeping her from turning out like he did.
  • Head-Turning Beauty: She was a supermodel in her youth, and still looks amazing for her age despite the stress of being a single parent and being married to Spider-Man for years.
  • Mirthless Laughter: She laughs a hollow chuckle when Peter mentions his promise to Uncle Ben again, the same promise that drove their relationship into the ground.
  • Parents as People: Mary Jane wants nothing more than for May to live a happy, normal life. But after May develops powers and learns that her dad is Spider-Man, she's understandably cross that Mary Jane never told any of this to her. MJ also clamps down on any talk about superheroes, coming across as obstructive and unsupportive to May even though she just wants to keep May safe.
  • Surprise Pregnancy: She and Peter didn't discover her pregnancy until after they signed their divorce papers.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: She gives this to Phil after he kidnaps her, pointing out all the flaws with his reasoning that he's doing it for her and May instead of serving himself.
  • Took a Level in Cynic: While Mary Jane was initially excited about dating a superhero after learning that Peter is Spider-Man, the constant stress of worrying about whether he's going to come home every night and constantly messing family events wore away at her until she finally filed for divorce. She refuses to even discuss superheroes in the house and yells at May when she decides to become Spider-Girl.
  • You Are Better Than You Think You Are: When May begins berating herself for calling the cops on Phil and wondering if she did the right thing, Mary Jane dispels those notions and explains that everything he did was of his own volition, not hers.

    May "Mayday" Parker 

May "Mayday" Parker

Debut: The Perfect Day

Peter's daughter with Mary Jane. A spunky fourteen-year-old who is both an aspiring athlete and a bit of an anime nerd, her relationship with her dad is strained due to his constant absences due to "work". Despite this, she still misses him dearly.


See her entry here.

    Miles Morales 

Miles Morales

Debut: Issue #21: Legacy...

A Brooklyn teenager and student at the prestigious Visions Academy. Miles is the son of a police officer and nurse struggling to find his identity under the expectations of his parents. While attending Hero-Con with his best friend and roommate Ganke Lee, he was bitten by a spider that was a genetic experiment of the Kingsley Corporation. Being granted powers he never asked for, Miles tries to find a way to carve his own path.


See his entry here.

    Ganke Lee 

Ganke Lee

Debut: Issue #21: Legacy...

A Brooklyn resident and Miles' best friend. Unlike Miles, he was already set to go to Visions Academy without the lottery. A superhero nerd, Ganke finds himself thrust into the world when his best friend somehow gains the powers of Spider-Man.


  • Ascended Fanboy: Somewhat averted. While Ganke is a superhero nerd he wasn't particularly interested in Spider-Man until Miles gained his powers. He is, however, bummed at Miles' refusal to become a superhero after getting his powers. But he squeals with joy when Miles tells him that he's going to be Spider-Man after all.
  • Asian and Nerdy: He's of Korean descent and obsessed with LEGO and comics. He's also attending Visions which means that aside from coming from a more affluent family, he's pretty smart himself.
  • Big Fun: Is much more laid-back than Miles, and seemingly more outgoing.
  • Best Friend: To Miles. They've known each other for years, and he becomes Miles' Secret-Keeper by default as the first one who learns about his superpowers.
  • Flexing Those Non-Biceps: He flexes for the camera at Hero-Con even though he's a rotund teenager.
  • Genre Savvy: As a superhero fan, he's aware of all the typical tropes and is the first one to point out how similar Miles' powers are to Spider-Man's.
    Ganke: Dude, take your shoes off! Maybe the soles are interfering with the stickiness!
    Miles: [trying to climb up a wall] That makes no sense!
    Ganke: They're superpowers! They don't have to make sense!
  • Hero-Worshipper: He's a superhero nerd who drags Miles along to Hero-Con when they should be in their dorm room. Hearing Daniel Kingsley speak is enough to make Ganke swoon as though Kitty Pryde had just asked him out. Ganke is ecstatic to find that Miles has superpowers and prods him every chance he gets about them.
  • Let Us Never Speak of This Again: When Miles remarks, "I think I just hit puberty" in earshot, both he and Ganke agree to never speak of that phrase again.
  • Mission Control: Wants to be Miles and Mayday’s “Guy In The Chair” and provides them with their Spider-Signal phone application to keep them up-to-date with events in the city.
  • Mr. Exposition: Ganke is the one who helps Miles figure out most of his powers and informs him about his newfound internet fame after his first outing as Spider-Man.
  • Secret-Keeper: He's the first one to discover Miles' powers and seeks to help Miles train with them to prevent him from unintentionally outing himself.

Former and Current Avengers

    Steve Rogers - Captain America 

Steve Rogers - Captain America

Debut: Avengers: The Return of Thor

The Star-Spangled Man with a Plan and hero of World War II, Steve Rogers is the leader of the Avengers and one of its last remaining avengers still on the roster. Although as spry and sharp as ever, age is catching up to him, and he wishes to finally retire. But not before he brings his friend Spider-Man home.


  • Badass Normal: A borderline example. His only abilities are the peak physical condition and mental acuity given to him by the super-soldier serum. Besides that, all of his skills and prowess are from his own skill and experience.
  • The Chains of Commanding: He organized a search party to look for Peter not long after his disappearance, only for his efforts to be completely derailed by Malekith's invasion. Since then, he's been occupied with both reconstruction efforts, global peacekeeping, and making sure the Devil Hulk doesn't rampage, preventing him from continuing his search beyond tapping contacts for information.
  • Feeling Their Age: Steve admits that he can't keep fighting the good fight forever, as it's been over 30 years since he was unthawed from ice. Because of this, he's ready to finally pass the mantle of Captain America to Shannon, but only after finds Peter and gets him home.
  • Fish out of Temporal Water: While Steve has always been feeling out of time after being revived in the modern day, he feels like this even within the Avengers now that all of his companions save Peter have left the Avengers for one reason or another, having been replaced by their kids or successors.
  • Last of Their Kind: The only original Avenger left on the team after Peter vanished.
  • The Leader: He remains the leader of the Avengers, with his experience giving him authority over even powerhouse like Skaar and Torunn.
  • Passing the Torch: Steve has selected Peggy Carter's grand-niece, Shannon, to succeed him as Captain America once he finally hangs up the red, white and blue. However, he vows not to put down his shield until every soldier is back home, or in other words, until Peter is found and returned safely.

    Tony Stark - Iron Man 

Tony Stark - Iron Man

Debut: Avengers: The Return of Thor

The Invincible Iron Man, Tony Stark is the billionaire owner of Stark Enterprises and one of the founding members of the Avengers. He's recognized as one of Earth's greatest superheroes, but his reputation soured after his actions in the events known as the superhero Civil War over the Superhuman Registration Act. Current whereabouts are unknown.
  • Ambiguous Situation: Since Arno Stark is implied to have taken over as Iron Man in the present, it's unclear if Tony is dead or just retired.
  • Easily Forgiven: Defied. Due to his actions and mishandling of the Superhuman Registration Act, Tony has burnt a lot of bridges with his friends and colleagues. It’s implied that the only reason he’s still on the Avengers is because of Steve Rogers and other superheroes like Alex make snide remarks to remind him that nothing is forgiven.
  • Insufferable Genius: It’s explained that part of his reason for pushing the SHRA even when it was basically falling apart is because Tony has the innate belief that he’s always right and he knows what’s best for the world. While his genius had aided him in being a superhero and a playboy philanthropist when he applied it to politics and tried to impose his ideas onto his friends it just made him look like a jackass.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: After the events of Civil War, many of his associates have a continual desire to punch him in the face for actions that killed several of their friends. Alex Power bitterly brings up the possibility of the Mjölnir in New Mexico being a man-made copy because of the Thor clone Tony sicced on the Anti-Reg coalition.
  • Once Done, Never Forgotten: Long after the SHRA was repealed, he's still getting jabs for his actions back then.
  • Old Superhero: Like Peter, Tony has been active as a superhero since the 70s and neither of them are spring chickens.
  • Powered Armor: His entire powerset is based on his many iterations of the Iron Man armor.

    Torunn Thorsdóttir-Foster 

Torunn Thorsdóttir-Foster

Debut: Avengers: The Return of Thor

The daughter of the God of Thunder. She was left in the care of Thor's ex-lover, Jane Foster, when Ragnarok loomed on the horizon. She's a member of the Young Avengers, taking her father's place as the Avengers' bruiser.


  • Canon Immigrant: In-universe, Izuku mentions that he's surprised that Torunn exists in Peter's universe, as her only major appearance was in Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow.
  • Child of Two Worlds: Torrun was born and raised in Asgard for a good portion of her early childhood. However, she was then left to be raised on Earth by Jane Foster until she was well into her teenage years. Because of this, Torunn has to act out what she believes is a ‘true’ Asgardian and speaks regular English instead of Ye Olde Butchered English by default. She only reconciles the two after Thor possesses his mortal host, Donald Blake, again and gives her the validation she needs.
  • Composite Character: She gets combined with her father during the War of the Realms by sacrificing her eye to the World Tree and is destined to become queen when Thor steps down.
  • Daddy's Girl: She's extremely close to her father and is devastated when he's believed dead after Ragnarok. Her battle armor is even styled after her father's own.
  • Eyepatch of Power: She sacrificed an eye and hung herself to gain the power to beat Malekith into next Tuesday in a manner identical to her grandfather, Odin. Because of this, she's now on par with her father in strength and is next in line to become the All-Mother once Thor steps down from his position as king of Asgard.
  • Handicapped Badass: Torunn gave up an eye to gain the same kind of wisdom and power as her grandfather Odin, making her far more powerful than ever.
  • Heroes Prefer Swords: She wields her mother Sif's sword.
  • Heroic BSoD: She collapses in tears and anguish after failing to lift Mjölnir.
  • How Do I Shot Web?: It's mentioned that she has tried and failed to properly utilize her godly powers on numerous occasions and is deeply insecure about this.
  • Kid Hero: She's the teenaged superhero daughter of Thor and a member of the Young Avengers.
  • Lightning Bruiser: Having taken her father's place on the Avengers, she's implied to be incredibly powerful in her own right and has lightning coursing through her veins.
  • No True Scotsman: Although she was mostly raised on Earth, she's terrified of not being considered a "true" Asgardian, speaking in Ye Olde Butchered English, referring to Earth as Midgard, and trying (and failing) to properly utilize her godly powers. Her self-esteem plummeted from the pressure of being Thor's daughter. She seems to have ditched this notion following the War of the Realms, using normal vernacular after beating Malekith alongside her father.
  • Parental Abandonment: She was left in the care of Jane Foster while Thor and Sif went off to fight and die Ragnarok to save the universe.
  • Proud Warrior Race Guy: She tries to project the image of this to cover up her deep insecurities about losing her parents and living up to their legacy.
  • Shock and Awe: As part of her inheritance as the daughter of the God of Thunder. she's ashamed of how much trouble she has controlling it.
  • Super-Strength: As part of her Asgardian heritage, she possesses this and believes she would be worthy of wielding Mjölnir. She's heartbroken when she realizes she can't lift it after it falls into New Mexico, which she takes as a sign that she isn't worthy.
  • Tragic Keepsake: Her mother's sword is the last thing Torunn has of her. When she learns that Mjölnir was sighted in New Mexico, she immediately flies over to claim it, as it's her father's most prized possession.
  • Unskilled, but Strong: It's implied that despite her having immense power and potential, she's not very good at using her godly abilities. This contributes to her low self-esteem in living up to her family's legacy.
  • "Well Done, Daughter!" Girl: She's always seeking the approval of her father and is self-conscious over her failings in combat compared to him, a born warrior.

    Thor Odinson 

Thor Odinson

Debut: Avengers: The Return of Thor

Asgard's mightiest warrior and the God of Thunder. He is one of the Avengers' earliest members and among its most powerful. He and his wife Sif ventured off with the other Asgardians to fight in Ragnarok, leaving Torunn in the care of Jane Foster to protect her. He never returned and was believed dead until Mjölnir lands in New Mexico and channeled once more by Dr. Donald Blake.


  • Back from the Dead: He died in Ragnarok but was channeled once more through Dr. Donald Blake.
  • Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: He and Sif left Torunn on Midgard so she wouldn't be caught up and killed in the universe-spanning war of Ragnarok.
  • Good Parents: Torunn clearly adores him and was heartbroken when he died.
  • Lightning Bruiser: The God of Thunder himself, whose ability to channel the storm is only matched by his incredible strength, speed, and toughness, making him one of the mightiest Avengers.
  • Papa Wolf: He apparently did something to break the cycle of Ragnarok to save his daughter from dying in it, sacrificing his life in the process.
  • Retired Badass: Having become the new All-Father and king of Asgard, Thor no longer engages in active superheroing. His daughter takes up his position on the Avengers.

    Kamala Khan - Ms. Marvel 

Kamala Khan - Ms. Marvel

Debut: Issue #21 - Legacy...

Once an ordinary Pakistani-American teenager and superhero fangirl, the mass release of Terrigen Mist across the United States unlocked Kamala's latent Inhuman powers, granting her the ability to shapeshift and mold her body however she desired. She soon took up the mantle of her idol, Ms. Marvel, later founding the latest iteration of the Champions to bridge the divide between superheroes and the public.


  • Affirmative-Action Legacy: A Muslim Pakistani-American woman who took up the name of a white, half-Kree superhero.
  • Ascended Fangirl: Peter mentions that Izuku's fanboying reminds him of Kamala's own admiration for superheroes.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: She's one of the Avengers heard in the background when Peter calls Steve so he wouldn't have to leave his date with MJ.
  • Kid Hero All Grown-Up: It's mentioned that she's been a superhero for years at this point and is both a member of the Avengers and the chairwoman of the Champions. Kamala is also taking a step back from her leadership of the Champions in hopes of pursuing a political career to enact change on the civil and legal level too.
  • Shapeshifting: Her main power, which also gives her a Healing Factor and the ability to change her size.

The Fantastic Five

    In-General 

The Fantastic Five

The first superhero family and a team of some of the most well-known superheroes in Peter's universe.


  • Seen It All: The Fantastic Five have apparently encountered enough zombie-infested universes to have a decontamination protocol ready to disintegrate any zombies and have A.R.M.O.R. on speed dial to clean up afterwards. Even Magneto is disturbed by how routine this is for them.

    Reed Richards - Mr. Fantastic 

Reed Richards - Mr. Fantastic

Debut: Old Friends

The original leader of the Fantastic Four and the world's smartest man, Reed is one of the world's preeminent superheroes, but he has since ceded leadership of his team to his brother-in-law, Jonathan.


  • Absent-Minded Professor:
    • For all his brilliance, even Reed can make mistakes. He ensures his wife Sue that he's sent Johnny and Franklin to a perfectly safe world... until he realizes he forgot to carry the two. Franklin and Johnny soon emerge carrying the last group of survivors of yet another Zombie Apocalypse world, with that world's zombified versions of the Fantastic Four behind them.
    • He also seems to not understand while he may be able to understand his complex equations regarding human nature, not many others can. This leads into his support of the Superhuman Registration Act and when he's called into Congress for questioning, he fails to properly explain why the act will benefit society in the long run.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: He's mentioned in passing by Peter while discussing the events of Civil War (2006).
  • Rubber Man: Exposure to cosmic rays gave him the abiltiy to stretch and mold his body into almost any shape.
  • Science Hero: He's the world's smartest man, and has developed all sorts of gadgetry to make the Fantastic Five's escapades a little easier.
  • Smug Super: He tends to have more confidence in his genius than he should, leading to him supporting the Superhuman Registration Act and ignoring many of his friends and colleagues' genuine concerns towards the law and its enforcement. It's implied that Sue mostly helps to keep him grounded, as they nearly broke up because of his increasing efforts to make the law work despite all evidence that it was failing.

    Sue Storm-Richards - The Invisible Woman 

Sue Storm-Richards - The Invisible Woman

Debut: Old Friends

Reed's wife, Franklin's mother, and a founding member of the Fantastic Four.


  • Barrier Warrior: One of her two powers is the ability to create powerful invisible forcefields anywhere. In addition to being a defensive tool, she can use them offensively by putting them up inside people, slicing off limbs or even blowing up their heads.
  • One Extra Member: Despite being Reed's wife, she is not technically a part of the main Fantastic Five lineup. She does, however, aid in Reed's experiments and their missions.

    Jonathan "Johnny" Storm - The Human Torch 

Jonathan "Johnny" Storm - The Human Torch

Debut: Old Friends

The leader of the Fantastic Five and Sue's brother. He's been venturing into universe after universe in search of Peter, but to no avail.


  • Best Friend: He's Peter's closest friend, having stuck with him through thick and thin. Even now, he's been heading out on expeditions into other universes in search of him, and the fact that five months of searching has gotten him nothing frustrates Johnny to no end.
  • Hollywood Mid-Life Crisis: Once he started losing hair in his forties, Ben and Sue note that he's been trying increasingly hard to stay young and hip, what with using his son Torus' lingo, purchasing the sleekest and fastest cars he can, wearing ridiculous outfits, and installing a Pac-Man machine in his bedroom without Lyja's consent.
  • The Leader: He's the current leader of the Fantastic Five.
  • Playing with Fire: As the Human Torch, he can light his entire body on fire and fling powerful jets of flame to fly and to attack with.

Debut: Legacy...

The wife of Jonathan Storm and former infiltrator of the Skrull Empire. After falling in love with Johnny and defecting from the Skrull Empire, she became his wife and the mother to their son Torus. While being exasperated with Johnny's Hollywood Mid-Life Crisis, she is supportive and caring towards him while also comforting both him and Mary Jane with their troubles.


  • Green-Skinned Space Babe: She's a green-skinned Skrull and is pretty unashamed with her natural pigment.
  • Happily Married: To Johnny. In spite of his ridiculous clinging to his youth and the general insanity of being the wife to the leader of the Fantastic Five, she is supportive and comforts Johnny over his growing frustration in failing to find Peter.
  • Odd Friendship: To Mary Jane. Mary Jane, for the most part, is an ordinary woman who is the ex-wife of Johnny's friend. In spite of that, the two seem to remain close in spite of MJ's separation with Peter.

Others!!

    Conan the Barbarian 

Conan the Barbarian

Debut: The Creeping Beyond (A Conan the Barbarian Tale) Part 1

A Cimmerian barbarian from Earth’s distant Hyborian Age, which occurred after the fall of Atlantis but before the recording of history. During his many adventures he was a mercenary, a pirate, a thief, a gladiator, and eventually became a king. But before he took up any throne, Conan was tasked to slay a sorcerer called Druig at the behest of a nobleman called Zuras


  • Anti-Hero: While Conan does have a sense of honor and the sight of innocents being harmed angers him, he is still a barbarian who kills for riches and fulfilling his base desires.
  • Barbarian Hero: The archetypal example.
  • Canon Welding: Conan’s place in the story is due to how Conan and the Hyborian Age are placed into Marvel’s history in the licensed comics.
  • Does Not Like Magic: Due to sorcerers usually trying to kill him and the mysterious nature of their craft, Conan has taken to instantly disliking sorcerers and their art.
  • Genius Bruiser: Conan, despite looking like a brainless barbarian, does have a good head on his shoulder and a firm understanding of tactics. He distracts the Deviants by throwing a rock so he could strike from behind, and tries to focus on the slower more powerful one so it wouldn’t take advantage of his exhausted state should he focus on its quicker companion.
  • Genre Savvy: Due to his many encounters with sorcerers over his adventures, Conan has picked up on their tendency to have a flair for the dramatic. As such, he decides climbing the highest tower of the castle would be the easiest way for him and Elric to find Druig.
  • Made of Iron: Conan is able to take on two Deviants and despite being injured by one who’s tentacles are described as a whip, he continues to fight and make his enemies pay for spilling his blood.
  • Posthumous Character: By Peter’s time, Conan has long since been dead.
  • Really Gets Around: Conan considers women to be the few important focuses of his life, aside from riches, food, and wine. In both the comics and the original stories Conan had a tendency to sleep with a new girl almost every tale.

    Elric of Melnibone 

Elric of Melnibone

Debut: The Creeping Beyond (A Conan the Barbarian Tale) Part 1

An albino sorcerer who is the exiled emperor of Melnibone. An Eternal Champion fated to keep the balance between Law and Chaos throughout his own world and through the Multiverse. He wields the black blade Stormbringer, which sucks out the souls of all it cuts to bring strength to its owner. He comes to Conan’s aid during the barbarian’s struggle against the Deviants, and has his own reasons to aid Conan’s quest.


  • Canon Welding: Elric’s presence in the story is due to his adventure with Conan being in the Marvel licensed comics. His occasional travels through the Multiverse also lend credibility to his presence.
  • Deadpan Snarker: In contrast to Conan’s blunt nature, Elric prefers to snipe at the barbarian’s lack of knowledge in high concepts such as the multiverse and his general way of living.
  • The Emperor: Elric was the 428th-and-last-Emperor of Melnibone.
  • Magic Knight: Elric is both a sorcerer and knows how to wield his cursed sword.
  • Posthumous Character: Like Conan, he’s long dead by the time Peter travels to Izuku’s universe.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Even though he regularly stares down Eldritch Abominations and sucks out the souls of of his victims, he's terrified of heights.

    Gwen Poole - Gwenpool 

Gwen Poole - Gwenpool

Debut: Where In The World Is Gwen Poole?

A girl who is supposedly from the "real world" where the Marvel Universe and other properties are fictional. Finding herself mysteriously in this world, Gwen decided that the safest bet to ensure her continued survival was picking up a costumed identity and becoming the hero of a story. After numerous mishaps due to these assumptions, she ended up becoming the head of M.O.D.O.K (Mercenary Organization Dedicated Only to Killing) and discovered that she was in a FanFic.


  • Cloudcuckoolander: She is considered rather odd and crazy whenever she states that the world exists in a comic book or fanfic to other people. Even Teddy, her own brother, thinks she's been a bit off ever since coming to this new world.
  • The Cuckoolander Was Right: She is correct in her belief that she exists in a fanfic. However, she assumes that the story is an incredibly badly written one that contains the worst excesses of the subgenre and is focused on her.
  • Fourth-Wall Observer: Due to being a comic book fan, she was aware that she was in the Marvel Universe when she arrived. However, the longer she stayed she began to see inconsistencies with the timeline and realized she was in a fanfic.
  • Screw This, I'm Out of Here!: Rather than be subjected to becoming the focus of a Bash Fic or dying in a humiliating way, she decided to move herself and her organization to Puerto Rico where nothing important ever happens in the Marvel Universe.

    Loki 

Loki Laufeyson, the God and Goddess of Stories

Debut: Old Friends

Thor's adopted brother and the God and Goddess of Stories. They were originally the God of Lies, but reinvented themselves as part of a last-ditch attempt to prevent a Bad Future.


  • All-Powerful Bystander: As the God and Goddess of Stories, manipulating the fabric of reality on a metaphysical level is simple for them, as magic is simply a matter of telling a story so thoroughly that reality believes it to be true. They also know exactly where Peter is and could tell his loved ones at any time, but that wouldn't make for a good story, would it?
  • Ambiguous Gender: They're referred to as the God and Goddess of Stories, and the narrative uses gender-neutral pronouns for them. Given how they can swap their biological gender at the drop of a hat, it's likely that Loki simply doesn't care how they present themselves or that they simply change in order to embody all potential stories.
  • Exact Words: Verity finds it frustrating how Loki can simply sidestep her power by saying something technically true while leaving out numerous critical details.
  • It Amused Me: One of Loki's reasons for not telling any of Peter's loved ones where to find him is because it simply amuses Loki to watch the story pan out.
  • Necessarily Evil: Loki could easily fish Peter out of Izuku's universe and send him home at any time, but Loki also states that doing so would have grave consequences for everyone involved.
  • Story Within a Story: Loki is seen reading through both My Hero Academia and Spider-Man comics while Verity peers out into Izuku's world.

     J. Jonah Jameson 

J. Jonah Jameson aka John Jonah Jameson Junior, J.J.J.

Debut: "Just The Facts"

Peter's former boss at the Daily Bugle, now the host of Just The Facts and still on the warpath against Spider-Man.


  • Adaptational Jerkass: A twofold example. While his mainstream 616 counterpart buried the hatchet with Peter and became a Secret-Keeper, this version is still enmeshed in his vendetta in his old age. Likewise in the MC2 comics he was supportive of Spider-Girl instead of condemning her, although he does have valid reasons for distrusting her.
  • Adaptational Job Change: While he was still the Bugle's publisher in the MC2 setting, here he's stepped down and is hosting his podcast instead.
  • Adapted Out: His involvement in funding the "Human Fly" seems to be cut as Joe Robertson is Spared by the Adaptation.
  • Composite Character: Of Marvel Comics 2 Jameson and his Spider-Man (PS4) counterpart.
  • Deconstruction: Unlike in the comics, J. Jonah Jameson's Anti-Spidey campaign took has more detrimental consequences for his career:
    • Due to Peter saving the city numerous times and all his other heroic acts, the people of New York began to realize he wasn’t the menace J. Jonah Jameson was trying to cast him as. And because nobody was buying his paper any more or believing his sensationalism, Jonah was forced to ease up on his hatred to save the Daily Bugle.
    • While in the comics J. Jonah Jameson’s articles aren’t questioned in-universe despite being based on his twisting of events, in Peter’s universe Jonah was sued for helping to fuel a police officer’s paranoia of Spider-Man enough to shoot at him from a crowd. After this, Jonah was forced to print a disclaimer at the end of his articles that they are his opinion and shouldn’t be taken as fact.
    • His patronage for Anti-Spidey measurements got him deeper legal issues: the lawsuits against him by the now-late Mac Gargan and the accusations that he bankrolled Spencer Smyth’s death machines made him practically toxic to the news world, meaning that he couldn’t even get a job at the other newspapers.
    • His reputation was hit so hard, that his radio show Just the Facts has fewer subscribers than JJJ expected, and most of his audience doesn't take him seriously according to his grandson (his listeners follow him for amusement, prank-call the station or send him joke gifts of Spider-Man plushies).
  • Everyone Has Standards:
    • Expresses sincere sympathy for the people injured in the Hobgoblin's attack.
    • States he never bought Roderick Kingsley's supposed reformation. Likely because Kingsley was ultimately responsible for the death of Bugle reporter Ned Leeds, brainwashing him and setting him up as a patsy for the Hobgoblin.
  • Hidden Depths: His grandson believes he does miss Spider-Man deep down.
  • Irony: The Buzz who he hates is his grandson, Jack Jameson as per Marvel Comics 2.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: As his grandson notes, with all his obsessive ranting he does make some valid points.
    • He's entirely correct about Spider-Girl escalating the situation with the Hobgoblin's attack, pointing out her recklessness caused considerable collateral damage.
    • He's completely right to doubt Kingsley's supposed Heel–Face Turn.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: As usual.
  • Mythology Gag: According to Peter he referred to superheroes as "long-underwear characters", a term used by Stan Lee who often joked that he based Jameson on himself.

    Melissa Shield - Spider-Woman 

Melissa Shield - Spider-Woman

Debut: Sidestory: Tangled Web of Spider-Woman Issue 9

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/melissa_sheild.png

Melissa is the daughter of All Might's best friend and former sidekick, David Shield, who also developed All Might's costume. Like Izuku, Melissa was born Quirkless, deciding to become an inventor who produces support items for Heroes to help them save even more lives. But her life is forever changed when she's bitten by a radioactive spider, gaining all the proportionate abilities of one. She juggles her research, social life, and Hero work as best she can as the amazing Spider-Woman.


  • All Webbed Up: She has her web-shooters and her car's mounted web-cannons to inflict this on the criminals she apprehends.
  • Alternate Self: To the Melissa Shield of the canon timeline, as she's bitten by a radioactive spider, gaining powers of her own in the process.
  • Amazonian Beauty: Downplayed. Melissa is fit and trim, but she's closer to Korra in build than Mikasa Ackerman.
  • Blue Is Heroic: Her costume is primarily deep blue and pink.
  • Building Swing: Wouldn't be a Spider-Person without this, though she prefers to drive the Spider-Mobile unless she's in a hurry.
  • Composite Character: This version of her takes cues from Spider-Gwen, the House of M, and Dan Slott's take on Spider-Man as a teenage girl in over-her-head with her responsibilities and fame while also utilizing a lot of tech to supplement her powers.
  • Cool Car: Her Spider-Mobile is a sports car modified to be able to ride along walls and equipped with web-cannons that lock onto and pin her foes to walls, objects, and floors. She's possessive of it and is annoyed when Martin jumps into the driver's seat.
  • Everyone Is Related: It turns out that her mother’s name is Mary Shield-Brock, and she has an uncle named Carl and a cousin named Eddie. Meaning that Melissa is Eddie Brock’s cousin in this universe.
  • Failed a Spot Check: Played for Drama. In her rush to make it to a raid on one of the Inner Demons' hideouts, she neglects to insert the last two screws to the electric eel cage, which allows the glass cage to shatter and electrocute Max.
  • Famed In-Story: She publicized her new powers after discovering their origins and developing her own web-fluid, becoming a sensation overnight as the only known Quirkless person to have gained powers from a spider bite. The Izuku of her universe admires her from the get-go for this as a formerly Quirkless person himself.
  • Foil:
    • To Izuku, as they both were formerly Quirkless teens that had spider powers thrust on them by a twist of fate. But while Izuku’s spider was created through inter-dimensional forces, her spider received a fatal dose of radiation. While Izuku is being taught by Peter Parker due to his inexperience with the powers, Melissa had no teacher and adjusted to them fairly quickly. While Izuku is basically a normal teenager just starting high school, Melissa is currently enrolled in college and is a pseudo-celebrity due to the strange origins of her powers.
    • To Martin Li. They're both young Heroes who use their equipment to swing around and outmaneuver their foes. Martin is highly successful, arrogant, and laser-focused on taking down the Demons. Melissa is new to the industry, constantly tied up in her many responsibilities, and is far more down-to-earth.
  • Genius Bruiser: She designed most of her own tech with her father's help and has all of the standard spider powers. This includes nanotechnology that she used to make her suit, her heavily customized sports car, and various other gadgets. Her penthouse has a laboratory in it and she's always looking for ways to become more efficient.
  • It's All My Fault: Has this along with My God, What Have I Done? when she realizes that she neglected to insert the last two screws to the cage in her rush to meet up with Martin, which caused the Electro System to malfunction and electrocute Max.
    Melissa: Oh, Jesus… Oh, God no. Max… Max I..
  • My Suit Is Also Super: The Leopardon System she developed allows her to change her clothes on the fly via a Transformation Sequence and voice command. Her costume looks like spandex, but is actually a form of armor that can protect her from low-caliber firearms and knives. The mask comes with an HUD much like Peter's and even has spider legs that come out of the back in case she's caught off-guard.
  • Never Gets Fat: She relishes how her spider-enhanced teenage metabolism lets her dig into donuts and other sweets for breakfast without worrying about putting on weight.
  • Nice Girl: Melissa sympathizes with Toomes, as he was screwed over by his business partner, and plans to send him a large portion of his flying apparatus’ profits when it’s commercialized even though he tried to kill her. Like Izuku, she got into the business to help others.
  • Projectile Webbing: She takes this one step further than the average Spider-Person by equipping her Cool Car with web cannons.
  • Science Hero: She and her dad are scientists and inventors, having made most of Melissa's equipment themselves. Even though she's an active Hero, she still devotes a great deal of time to scientific research and has a lab in her penthouse.
  • Super-Strength: She easily lifts the hulking Crusher Hogan as if he were a basketball and has to hold back when dealing with the Demons so she doesn't break their necks.
  • Triple Shifter: Deconstructed. She has to balance her schoolwork, social life, her internship with Martin, and her research all at the same time. She has so many responsibilities that they frequently overlap and stretch her thin, which ends in tragedy when she neglects to place two screws into the electric eel cage and properly install the rest, allowing the cage to shatter and electrocuting Max.
  • Unwitting Instigator of Doom: She unknowingly purchases Toomes' equipment from Bestman without knowing who the original inventor is, sending Toomes on a murderous rampage. Later on, in her rush to meet up with Martin, she neglects to insert two screws into the electric eel cage. This allows it to shatter and douse Max with electrically charged water that is implied to be turning him into Electro.
  • Wall Crawling: She sticks to the cage of the ring while dangling Crusher from the top of it.
  • Willfully Weak: She has to hold back while fighting others, as her super-strong blows can easily break people's necks.

    Alexsei "Rhino" Systevich 

Alexsei "Rhino" Systevich

Debut: Sidestory: Tangled Web of Spider-Woman Issue 9

The security guard for Melissa's lab in New York City. A hulking seven-foot-tall man with a Quirk that gives him a razor-sharp horn, he's a jovial and friendly guy to his coworkers, but not above ribbing them while on the job.


  • Adaptational Heroism: Instead of being a common crook-turned-supervillain, he's an honest security guard Melissa hired in case her lab's security systems somehow fail.
  • Animal Motif: Rhinos, thanks to his sharp, curved horn and huge physique.
  • Bearer of Bad News: He calls Melissa to tell her that something has gone horribly wrong with the Electro System and Max has been caught in the middle of it.
  • Gentle Giant: For a huge guy with a sharp horn jutting from his forehead, he's a friendly guy who happily buys donuts for his boss.
  • Horned Humanoid: The rhino horn jutting from his forehead is a natural part of his Quirk.
  • In-Series Nickname: Max calls him "Rhino" for his horn and hulking physique. Aleksei doesn't like this.
  • Servile Snarker: He cheekily ribs his boss over her love life and says he doesn't need to pay the cable bill because Melissa provides all of the teen drama he could ever want to watch.
  • Shipper on Deck: He ships Melissa with Harry, much to her embarrassment and Max's annoynace.
    Aleksei: [once she's out of earshot] She totally likes him.
    Max: [rolling his eyes] Can't you watch a soap opera like a normal person instead of obsessing over her love life?
    Aleksei: Why would I do that? Teenagers, especially teenage Heroes, give me a soap opera without the cable bill!

    Max Dillon 

Max Dillon

Debut: Sidestory: Tangled Web of Spider-Woman Issue 9

Melissa's lab technician, he's helping her with the Electro System designed to power her lab. His Quirk gives him needles on his fingers that allow him to harmlessly conduct electricity from one place to another through his body.


  • Black and Nerdy: He's a skilled and methodical lab technician.
  • Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: His appearance is styled after Jamie Foxx with the same tooth gap Max was given in The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
  • Electric Black Guy: He's an African-American man whose Quirk lets him conduct electricity through his body. He's later implied to be on the path to becoming the supervillain Electro.
  • Harmless Electrocution: Horribly averted. When the cage holding the souped-up electric eels breaks, Max is doused in high-charge chemicals that burn him alive and leave him looking as though he'd been dipped in the sun.
  • Nerds Are Sexy: He's a lab technician who happens to look like an A-list movie star.

    Harry Osborn 

Harry Osborn

Debut: Sidestory: Tangled Web of Spider-Woman Issue 9

Melissa's friend and the son of Norman Osborn, CEO of Oscorp. An aspiring rocker, he's the leader of "The Hobgoblins". Charming and carefree, he chafes under his father's insistence that he inherit the family business.


  • Adaptational Attractiveness: In contrast to his usually nebbish and nerdy looks, Harry is described as handsome and well-built on top of being a veritable Chick Magnet who manages to get Melissa flustered over him.
  • Brilliant, but Lazy: Melissa notes that he isn't necessarily bad at chemistry. He can get the jargon and mechanics just fine. He just has little interest in studying it.
  • The Casanova: He's constantly making passes at cute girls he meets, including Melissa, which has gotten him in hot water on more than one occasion.
  • Chick Magnet: Girls swoon over him for his rock star attitude, good looks, and winning smile.

    Norman Osborn 

Norman Osborn

Debut: Sidestory: Tangled Web of Spider-Woman Issue 9

CEO of Oscorp and noted expert of various fields of science including nanotechnology. While he is a successful businessman and scientist, Norman seeks to bring his company to greater heights and sees Harry’s rocker aspirations as a danger to the legacy of the Osborns.


  • Color Motifs: Wears a green tie, which hints at his connection to the fact that most Norman Osborns in the series become the Green Goblin sooner or later.
  • Evil Redhead: While he hasn’t done anything evil, he is noticeably swarmy and turns his nose at the bodega that’s very low class to his standards.
  • Like A Daughter To Me: Norman enjoys talking with Melissa about science and praises Melissa’s advancements with her career. He even offers her a place in Oscorp so she can unlock her true potential. Harry lampshades this saying that the only thing likely stopping Norman from just adopting her is the fact David Shield is still in the picture.

    Martin Li - Wraith 

Martin Li - Wraith

Debut: Sidestory: Tangled Web of Spider-Woman Issue 9

A rising Hero based in New York, Martin is Melissa's mentor and boss, teaching her the ins and outs of Hero work as his sidekick. Young, brash, and arrogant, his juvenile behavior and love of the limelight belie his incredible passion for helping others as well as his vehement grudge against the Inner Demons.


  • The Ace: He's a Grade Skipper who became a Hero at 16, runs his highly successful and praised F.E.A.S.T. shelters, and is fairly wealthy through his own investments.
  • Adaptational Heroism: Most versions of Martin are supervillains and the heads of the Inner Demons he's trying to stop. Here he's a successful teenaged superhero.
  • Age Lift: Most versions of Martin are grown men, but here he's a teenager around Melissa's age.
  • Attention Whore: He loves to bask in the limelight and frequently shows off just because. After foiling a bank robbery, he immediately goes around to pass out his own autographs.
  • Beneath the Mask: At least part of Martin's ego is a facade he's using to hide his deep-seated insecurities and grief over losing his parents to Mr. Negative.
  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: The arrogant, hyperactive teenager happens to be a genius Hero, philanthropist, and businessman.
  • Clothing Combat: His Quirk allows him to telekinetically manipulate the elastic bands he wears and make them stronger than steel, deflecting the weapons of the Demons and tossing them around with ease. He can also use this for transportation and to quickly reposition himself by slingshotting himself around.
  • Composite Character: Martin has the backstory of his Spider-Man (PS4) counterpart, but his superheroic alter ego is based on the anti-villainous identity used by Yuri Watanabe. Personality-wise, he's an Expy of arrogant Stock Shonen Heroes like Black☆Star.
  • Decomposite Character: Martin Li and Mr. Negative are usually one-in-the-same, with the latter being Martin's Superpowered Evil Side. Here, they're separate people.
  • Doesn't Like Guns: Martin sneers at those who rely on guns to fight, calling them cowards for not facing him with their bare hands. He actually praises a Demon for trying to take him on with an axe, before kicking him through a car.
  • Dynamic Entry: He makes his first on-screen appearance by kicking a Demon in the face with a flying kick after wrapping him up in cloth.
  • Establishing Character Moment: Martin is introduced when he calls Melissa to tell her to meet him at a bank robbery so some of his awesomeness will rub off on her. He spends his first physical appearance rocketing into the fray while shouting louder than an entire firefight and kicking the asses of the Demons without a care in the world.
  • Foil:
    • To Melissa. They're both young Heroes who use their equipment to swing around and outmaneuver their foes. Martin is highly successful, arrogant, and laser-focused on taking down the Demons. Melissa is new to the industry, constantly tied up in her many responsibilities, and is far more down-to-earth.
    • To Bakugou. They're both Insufferable Geniuses with enormous egos and a constant drive to succeed. But while Bakugou grew up in a stable household and placed in an echo chamber of praise, Martin lost his parents when he was young and clawed his way up by himself. Their ideologies are also opposed: Bakugou wants to be a Hero to prove how strong he is, while Martin seeks to do good to balance out all of the bad in the world.
  • Genki Guy: He's described as perpetually hyper, yelling rather than speaking while calling Melissa.
    Martin: [jumping into the driver's seat of the Spider-Mobile] Come on, Melissa! Time's a-wastin! YAHOO!
  • The Gift: Martin is talented at pretty much everything. He skipped several grades to become a Hero at 16 (for references, the next youngest known Hero is Hawks, who became at a Hero at 18), runs a successful series of homeless shelters, and possesses a small fortune thanks to his own investments.
  • Grade Skipper: He skipped ahead in school thanks to his natural talent and constant drive to improve himself, becoming a Pro Hero at 16 when most others are still starting out.
  • Heart Is an Awesome Power: His Quirk seems to be the ability to manipulate the cloth bands he wears as a Hero and make them stronger than steel. While not as obviously destructive as Super-Strength or Having a Blast, he decimates a force of Demons with swords, guns, and axes almost entirely on his own with ease.
  • Hidden Depths: On the surface, he's a boisterous, attention-loving media hog who constantly shows off and hands out his own merchandise. But he's devoted to helping others any way he can and shows a noticeably softer side to himself while speaking to Melissa in his office, thanking her for showing up and helping him out. His cheer and arrogance gives way to violent aggression and irritability whenever he's interrogating the Demons, showing that he's still grieving the loss of his parents.
  • Inferiority Superiority Complex: Martin puffs himself up and stokes his own ego out of fear of being considered weak, as Mr. Negative taunted him for being sickly and failing to stop his parent's murder.
  • Insufferable Genius: He considers himself the greatest Hero in the world and tends to walk around like he owns the place, constantly showing off and handing out his own autographed photos. Even other Heroes find it difficult to like him and Melissa only puts up with him because of all the things he can teach her. But he backs up his ego with his incredible talent as both a Hero and a businessman.
  • Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: Tempted to do this to a member of the Demons taunting him until Melissa stops him.
  • Just a Kid: Martin exploited this while dealing with much older businessmen in the corporate sphere, allowing them to underestimate him as a knuckleheaded kid before walking away with the better deal.
  • Lethal Chef: In a non-canon July 4th omake, Martin is sulking in the corner while his guests pick at the charred hamburgers and hot dogs, implying that he's the one to blame.
  • Lightning Bruiser: He's fast enough to dodge gunfire and strong enough to kick people through windows with ease. He can also use his Quirk to make the cloth he wears harder than steel, easily deflecting a sword empowered by Mr. Negative.
  • Men Can't Keep House: Melissa speculates that Martin's office is only clean because Asuga cleans up after him or makes him do it himself.
  • Nice Guy: Underneath his arrogant veneer is a good kid wholly devoted to helping others as a Hero and a philanthropist. He's cheerful and affectionate to those close to him or under his care at F.E.A.S.T. and considers it "life or death" to be on time for the birthday party of a young girl whose family was just evicted from their apartment.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: His cheer and constant good will towards the downtrodden makes it all the more terrifying when he becomes irritable and vengeful after a raid on a suspected Demon hideout.
  • Pint-Sized Powerhouse: He's 5'6'' not including his two-inches of spiked up Shonen Hair and regularly kicks the asses of grown men.
  • Revenge: Martin shows a much darker side of himself whenever the Inner Demons are involved. He's determined to flush out Mr. Negative and bring him to justice by any means necessary, even if it means roughing up helpless Demons whose asses he's already kicked.
  • Rummage Sale Reject: His Hero costume consists of a purple t-shirt with skulls on it, numerous elastic bands and scarves wrapped around his arms, knees, and face, a pair of Zipperiffic cargo shorts, and "shinobi" sandals straight out of Naruto. The narration even calls him a fashion disaster.
  • Scarf of Asskicking: He has several of these wrapped around his face as a mask while working as Wraith. He unfurls them when he needs extra bands to restrain others, wearing them more like regular scarves from then on.
  • Shonen Hair: His hair is slicked back and spiky, adding two inches to his height. The narration makes a point of describing it as ridiculously greasy, which shows that it's an intentional stylistic choice on Martin's part.
  • Sickly Child Grew Up Strong: He was diagnosed with a rare disease as a child, prompting his parents to immigrate to the U.S. in hopes of having him undergo an experimental procedure to cure him. It seems to have worked, as he's a hyperactive and healthy teenager in the present day.
  • Smarter Than You Look: His juvenile behavior and appearance tends to throw people off when they first meet him, as he's known to be a genius and a wealthy businessman. He weaponizes this against his business rivals, who tend to underestimate him in the boardroom until it's too late.
    It turns out when one side thinks the other is or is representing a loudmouthed idiot, the 'idiot' can walk away with the better deal.
  • Sole Survivor: He's the only survivor of the attack that killed his parents and all of the doctors and researchers treating him.
  • Teen Genius: He's around eighteen years old and a Pro Hero for years when most people are just starting out on top of being a successful businessman.
  • You Killed My Father: Martin's parents were murdered by Mr. Negative and Martin is determined to get even with him.

    Asuga Shiki 

Asuga Shiki

Debut: Sidestory: Tangled Web of Spider-Woman Issue 9

Martin's personal assistant and Childhood Friend. She handles the day-to-day tasks of running F.E.A.S.T. while he's running off to be a Hero and promoting his work.


  • Beleaguered Assistant: Melissa wonders how a calm and professional girl like her could end up working for someone as hyperactive and brash as Martin. She's implied to be the one who cleans up after his messes and badgers him into actually cleaning up his own office. By the time Melissa and Martin return from a day of beating up Demons, she's clearly exhausted from managing everything on her own.
  • Hypercompetent Sidekick: She handles most of the "boring stuff" for Martin, including making sure F.E.A.S.T. is running smoothly, managing his finances, and representing him in corporate affairs in his absence. She also handles parties and was forced to learn how to bake a Dominican cake in a single day.

    Mr. Negative 

Mr. Negative

Debut: Sidestory: Tangled Web of Spider-Woman Issue 9

The elusive leader of the Demons. He murdered Martin's parents years ago, which spurred Martin's desire to become a Hero both to counteract Negative's evil and to avenge everyone he's killed.


  • Adaptation Origin Connection: Zigzagged. He apparently has a bone to pick with Norman Osborn as in Spider-Man (PS4), prompting him to attack the lab where Martin was getting treated and killing everyone inside. However, unlike the game, no reason is given for this grudge.
  • Decomposite Character: Martin Li and Mr. Negative are usually one-in-the-same, with the latter being Martin's Superpowered Evil Side. Here, they're separate people.
  • The Ghost: The only one who's ever seen him is Martin, having somehow escaped detection at every turn. Negative's subordinates constantly allude to him as their master, but no one seems to know what he looks like aside from the description Martin gave the police.
  • Yin-Yang Bomb: He seems to be able to charge his subordinates' weapons with white and blank energy, creating waves of destruction with every swing. However, they don't seem to be powerful enough to cut through the cloth enhanced by Martin's Quirk.

Earth-2018.562

    Peter Parker - Spider-Man 

Peter Parker

Debut: Sidestory: Marvels Academia

Peter is a Quirkless teenager who received amazing powers after being bitten by a radioactive spider. He attends Xavier Academy, the most prestigious Hero school in America. Despite his admission, he didn't bother trying to stop a bank robber being chased by Daredevil, a decision he comes to regret when that same robber killed his Uncle Ben.


  • Affectionate Nickname: He's rarely called "Peter" and most of his friends call him "Petey" and "Pete".
  • Alliterative Name: Peter Parker. Enough said.
  • Brainy Brunette: A chemical engineering genius and brown-haired.
  • Combo Platter Powers: He presumably has all the proportionate abilities of a spider, like most of the other Spiders in the multiverse.
  • Composite Character: He idolizes Tony Stark in the same vein as his MCU counterpart, but his overall personality takes cues from the original Lee-Ditko era of Spider-Man and The Spectacular Spider-Man.

  • The Glasses Gotta Go: He lost the need for glasses after the spider bite.

    Peter: Oh god... If I had stopped him then, If I... I didn't and now Uncle Ben... He's dead because of me...!
    All my fault... all my fault...
  • Jerkass Has a Point: Daredevil chastises Peter for not trying to stop the bank robber. While America's views on Quirk laws are unknown, Peter has a point that he's only a student and therefore a civilian who shouldn't be trying to stop crime himself yet. If he lived in Japan, he would have certainly gotten arrested for it.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He's abrasive and constantly makes snipes and jabs at everyone, even his close friends. He's especially cold towards Flash and quickly puts on a scowl around him. But underneath it all, this is still Peter Parker, and he's an aspiring Hero all the same.
  • The Knights Who Say "Squee!": Attending Xavier Academy didn't diminish Peter's admiration for Tony Stark in the slightest and he faints from sheer excitement when he learns that Tony is chaperoning their school trip.
  • Likes Older Women: He has a crush on Betty Brant, an adult woman and a secretary at Xavier Academy, sporting a Luminescent Blush while talking to her.
  • Nerd Glasses: He's described as having big, round glasses before the spider bite corrected his vision.
  • Only in It for the Money: He decided to become a Hero not out of a desire to do good, but because the job pays well and he wants to support his aunt and uncle. After Ben's death, Peter decides to take the job more seriously and become a "true Hero" who Ben would be proud of.
  • Projectile Webbing: Web-shooters are a Spider-Man's staple.
  • Sad Clown: Underneath his constant jokes and insults is a boy beaten down by society and haunted by the consequences of his negligence.
  • Smug Super: Wanda describes him as "cocky... oh so cocky" and on a power trip after gaining his abilities.
  • Super-Reflexes: He catches Wanda with one hand and all the books she was carrying with the other when they first meet.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: He and Pietro make constant jabs at each other but always laugh it off in the end.
  • Working-Class Hero: His aunt and uncle always had trouble making ends meet, and things only got worse after Ben died. Peter initially declines to join his class on their field trip to U.A. because he thought it too expensive for May to afford.
  • When He Smiles: He laughs and gives an honest, unvarnished smile while telling the others that he's going on the trip after all. Wanda wishes she'd see that face more.

  • Clingy Jealous Girl: Wanda gets jealous and embarrassed when she learns that Peter is crushing on Betty Brant, a woman five years older than him. She thought boys should be into people their own age and that Americans are weird for liking older women.
  • Color Motif: Red and black.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: The Maximoffs are orphans who drifted from place to place as no one would take them in because of their relation to Magneto. They eventually turned to theft to survive, only to be captured by a mysterious organization and experimented on for years until they're freed by Logan Howlett.
  • I Owe You My Life: She, Pietro, and Laura were all rescued by Logan Howlett, the Wolverine and the last X-Man before his death. They all decided to become Heroes to honor his memory.
  • Meet Cute: She meets Peter when she tripped on a raised piece of sidewalk, letting him catch her with one hand and her books with the other.
  • Mundane Utility: She often uses her Quirk to mess around with her brother when he dismisses her.
  • Sins of Our Fathers: Her father is Magneto, one of the world's most infamous pro-Quirk terrorists and the mentor to the likes of Destro, the leader of the Meta Liberation Army. She and Pietro were harassed constantly for this, forcing them to turn to thievery to get by after they're orphaned.
  • Then Let Me Be Evil: Due to being ostracized for their relation to Magneto, the Maximoffs decided that they might as well be as villainous as society makes them out to be and turned to theft.
  • Winds of Destiny, Change!: Her Quirk allows her to manipulate probability to cause all sorts of mishaps.

Katsuki Bakugou - Venom

Debut: Sidestory: Let the Devil In

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/venom_bakugou.png

Once the star student of Aldera Junior High, Katsuki Bakugou seemed destined to attend U.A. High School and become a top-ranking Hero. But with his talents came hubris. After he was caught smoking and drinking after school, he flew into a rage and brutally beat his longtime victim, Izuku Midoriya, in broad daylight, dooming Katsuki's chances of ever attending U.A. His washed out life changes after he stumbles across a crashed spaceship on a nightly walk to clear his head and bonds with the alien passenger inside, the symbiote named Venom.


  • Adaptational Jerkass: This version of Bakugou has Eddie Brock's unfortunate tendency to never take responsibility for his own mistakes, blaming Izuku for ruining his life when it was his own actions that crushed his aspirations. It's especially noticeable when compared to his mainstream counterpart, who feels Peter Parker levels of responsibility when All Might exhausts the last of his power on the mission to rescue him.
  • Anti-Hero: He's a self-entitled prick who wants nothing more than to beat the crap out of the person he blames for his own problems. He's menacing, has little regard for property damage, never takes responsibility for his own mistakes, and is a thoroughly unpleasant person to be around. That said, he puts his life on the line repeatedly out of a genuine desire to save people and stop Carnage.
  • Berserk Button: Anything involving Izuku will tape Bakugou's button down.
  • Big Eater: He eats and drinks a lot in order to keep Venom satiated, going through soda, chips, candy bars, and armfuls of convenience store food by the time he manages to hunt down Moonfish.
  • Brutal Honesty: He tells the mourning Venom to get over Eddie already instead of constantly wailing and comparing the two of them. No matter how much Venom wants it, Eddie is dead and his new partner isn't. Venom doesn't take kindly to this at first, but admits that Bakugou is right in this case.
  • Car Fu: He uses a family's car as a shield against Moonfish before detonating it to finish the fight.
  • Combo Platter Powers: Thanks to being bonded with Venom, Bakugou has gained almost all the powers of Spider-Man along with his Quirk. He also has a pronounced Healing Factor that lets him shrug off puncture and slashing wounds and makes gratuitous use of combat tentacles.
  • Composite Character: Of Bakugou and Eddie Brock as seen in Venom (2018). In addition to Bakugou's usual history, his washed out status and inability to acknowledge his own faults are taken from Eddie.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: His costume is black-and-white as per Venom standard, but he fights out of a genuine desire to help people and stop psychopaths like Carnage. Unfortunately, he's terrible at conveying this.
  • Destructive Savior: He does a good job of taking down Carnage's followers one-by-one. He doesn't do a good job of keeping the surrounding buildings intact, between his explosions and the collateral of having two symbiote wearers clash.
  • Don't You Dare Pity Me!: He's outraged when Izuku brings him up during an interview as "a friend who made some bad choices" and refuses to be the subject of a sob story.
  • Entitled Bastard: He feels as though the world owes him and that he should have been the one to go to U.A. instead of Izuku. As a result, he's constantly pissed and never seems to acknowledge that his situation is one of his own making. This feeling is only exacerbated by Venom, who agrees with him and encourages this behavior. After saving a teenage girl and her little brother, he's annoyed that they didn't thank him afterward, even though he had screamed at them earlier.
  • Everyone Has Standards: He thinks nothing of wanting to beat Izuku within an inch of his life for ruining his own, but is horrified by the murders left in Carnage's wake.
  • Experienced Protagonist: By the events of the story, Bakugou has already been Venom for several months and is infamous throughout Musutafu for his actions.
  • Explosive Propulsion: He's able to propel himself through the air by releasing constant explosions from his hands.
  • Foil: To Cletus. Both of them are highly intelligent and violent symbiote users. But while Bakugou fights to save people and is given bad press for his Destructive Savior tendencies, Cletus is adored by his followers and wants to expand his Religion of Evil to turn Earth into a living hell. Bakugou is also a case of Sir Swears-a-Lot, while Cletus is well-spoken and eloquent.
  • Good Thing You Can Heal: While acting as Venom, he can heal from puncture wounds that go through his arm easily. But it still hurts and he takes special care to ward off things that could damage his brain.
  • Hand Blast: His explosions are released from his palms.
  • Having a Blast: He still has his Quirk, Explosion, which he uses to great effect against the sound-sensitive symbiotes.
  • Heroic Host: Downplayed. He already had powers before meeting Venom and is quite the Jerkass, but he ultimately uses his powers to fight for good, even if some of his motivations are less than heroic.
  • Hero with Bad Publicity: He's constantly getting bad press due to his brutality, terrifying appearance, and the property damage he causes. The fact he’s fighting a one-man war against Carnage with no outside help doesn't help matters, nor does his tendency to flee from the scene once the Heroes arrive.
  • Hidden in Plain Sight: The Venom costume completely conceals his identity and build. He can blend back into a crowd simply by having Venom recede out of sight and walking around in his street clothes.
  • Horror Hunger: He has to keep eating in order to keep Venom full while staving off the latter's urges to eat things like living dogs.
  • I Coulda Been a Contender!: He's constantly pissed about not attending U.A. and only gets even more angry when he hears how Izuku earned second place at the Sports Festival.
  • Inadequate Inheritor: Despite their compatibility, Venom constantly compares him negatively to Eddie, who was far more patient and understanding with Venom than Bakugou is.
  • In the Hood: He tries to avoid unwanted attention by keeping his face hidden in a hoodie while he and Venom are looking for Carnage and his lackeys.
  • It's All About Me: He rarely registers how his actions affect others. After beating Izuku to a pulp and leaving burns all over him, Bakugou is remorseless and only feels annoyed that Deku tanked his chances at getting into U.A.
  • Jerkass: He's loud, crude and blames everyone but himself for his own problems. One of his motivations for helping Venom is the opportunity to take out his frustrations on Izuku all over again.
  • Kryptonite Factor: Due to being bonded with Venom, Bakugou possesses a weakness to intense heat and flame as well as high-intensity sound. However, the Required Secondary Powers from his own Quirk dulls this weakness, letting him resist sounds that aren't too high-pitched and shrug off fire in short bursts. But Endeavor proves to be his Man of Kryptonite, as Venom can't even get close to him without howling in pain.
  • Lightning Bruiser: He has all the powers of Venom, making him even faster, stronger, and tougher than Spider-Man. Combine this with the explosive propulsion and firepower of his Quirk, and you've got a hard-hitting brawler who can take as well as he can give.
  • Man of Kryptonite: Downplayed. Bakugou's ability to produce heat and sound with this explosions allows him to paralyze symbiotes with point-blank attacks. However, this is rarely enough to finish the fight alone, and he has to deal with the Carnage-enhanced Quirks of his opponents in order to get in range.
  • More Teeth than the Osmond Family: Has rows and rows of teeth while fully fused with Venom.
  • Morphic Resonance: His version of the Venom costume keeps his spiky hair visible and bears the same gauntlets, pads, and grenades as the Hero costume he wanted to have.
  • Never My Fault: One of his defining traits is his inability to blame himself for any of his problems. He constantly blames Izuku and everyone else for losing his chance at getting into U.A., failing to save people as Venom, or losing his temper in self-destructive ways. He even bonded with Venom just to beat on Izuku again after Carnage is dealt with.
  • Pet the Dog:
    • Despite his rowdiness and Jerkass behavior, he doesn't want to see innocents hurt and is horrified when he finds the apartment complex full of people slaughtered by Moonfish. He also shields a teenage girl and her little brother from Moonfish without a second thought and continues to fight the symbiotes even though it's earning him nothing but bad press.
    • While he tells Venom to hurry up and get over Eddie so they can focus, he also respects how much Eddie meant to Venom despite not knowing him. Instead of starting an argument with Venom, Bakugou keeps his tone even and gently gets his point across. He also says nothing while letting Venom mourn.
  • Power Incontinence: Even after possessing Super-Strength for several months, Bakugou still loses control of it when he's pissed, punching through a store window and the TV behind it and fragmenting a sidewalk while throwing one of his tantrums.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: He's the impatient and irritable red to Venom's more task oriented and patient blue. When Bakugou rushes into combat, Venom tells him not to give himself away and pulls him out of danger. The dynamic is flipped when the two have someone at their mercy, as Venom giddily advocates murder while Bakugou coolly decides to leave judgment to the cops.
  • Super-Senses: Venom cranks up Bakugou's senses, including his sense of smell. It isn't always helpful, as it makes revolting scents like rotting corpses and blood even more pungent.
  • Super-Speed: Venom greatly increases the strength of Bakugou's muscles, letting him run at superhuman speeds that leave the cops and Heroes pursuing him in the dust.
  • Super-Strength: Even without being fully transformed, Venom gives Bakugou enough strength to crack a sidewalk with a single stomp. When fully released, the two of them can pick up and throw cars as well as leave craters from running and jumping around.
  • Super-Toughness: He's tough enough to shrug off crashing through buildings, a car exploding in his face, and falling from heights that leave a crater where he lands.
  • Talking to Themself: One of the major downsides of bonding to Venom is how crazy he looks when he mutters to himself and jerks his head around while talking to Venom.
  • This Is Gonna Suck: He mutters about how much it's going to suck when he detonates a car in his own face to take out Moonfish.
    Bakugou: [as Venom] We’ll hate this! But if it means ending this, we will grin and bear it!
  • Thou Shalt Not Kill: Despite his tendency to beat his opponents so badly that they enter comas, he never actually kills them despite wanting to and Venom's openness to the idea.
  • Vigilante Man: He's officially a vigilante who is constantly going against the law to stop Carnage and his followers. More of then than not, he's being hounded by the police and Heroes as much as the actual murderers are.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: Bakugou and Venom are constantly throwing insults at each other. Venom even mocks Bakugou during his How We Got Here narration and Bakugou constantly refers to Venom as "goop" to his annoyance. Despite this, the two of them look care for one another and pull each other out of danger.
  • Voice of the Legion: Has this while fused with Venom, as shown by the bolded, italicized text his dialogue is written in while speaking as Venom.

    The Venom Symbiote 

The Venom Symbiote

Debut: Sidestory: Let the Devil In

An alien symbiote from the planet Klyntar and long-time partner of Eddie Brock. After Eddie is killed when they crash land onto Bakugou's Earth, Venom bonds to the teenager out of desperation to escape the burning wreckage. After discovering that they were surprisingly compatible, the the two of them made a deal: If Bakugou would help Venom find Carnage and take revenge on him for killing Eddie, Venom would help Bakugou make Deku pay for ruining his life.


  • Alternate Self: He comes from a universe similar to that of Venom (2018), where there are no superheroes and no Spider-Man despite granting Bakugou the same spider-like abilities.
  • Animal-Themed Superbeing: He's spider-based, letting Bakugou climb up walls, giving him the proportional physical abilities of a spider, and produce tentacles as "webbing".
  • Ax-Crazy: Once they have someone at their mercy, Venom giddily advocates for murdering Moonfish, but Bakugou shuts him down. Venom dejectedly calls him a pussy for this, but Bakugou doesn't care.
  • Bio-Armor: Acts as this for Bakugou, giving him almost all of Spider-Man's powers, sprouting Combat Tentacles, and protecting him from attacks.
  • Blank White Eyes: Has these in the shape of Spider-Man's teardrop lenses, but they've become frayed after bonding to Bakugou.
  • Clothes Make the Superman: He grants his hosts almost all of Spider-Man's abilities along with a potent Healing Factor.
  • A Darker Me: Downplayed. Venom has a bad habit of encouraging Bakugou's worst impulses, like wanting to murder Moonfish, beat the crap out of Izuku, or his feelings of self-entitlement. But all of these traits are already there for him and there's no indication that Venom is subtly forcing him to do any of these.
  • Deadpan Snarker: He often snarks at human antics as well as Bakugou's own failings.
    Bakugou: I could do whatever I want, because I deserved it.
    Venom: Yeah, and look how that turned out.
    Bakugou: Shut up!
  • Eating the Enemy: He and Bakugou finish off Carnage's offshoots by extracting them from their hosts' spine and devouring them alive.
  • Embarrassing Nickname: Bakugou refers to Venom as "goop", much to Venom's annoyance.
  • Fight Off the Kryptonite: Thanks to being bonded to the explosion-happy Bakugou, Venom's weaknesses to heat and sound have been dulled, protecting him from short bursts of flame and lower frequencies of intense sound. Unfortunately, the incredibly powerful Flame Hero Endeavor is still enough to leave them reeling in pain.
  • Heartbroken Badass: He's still reeling from Eddie's death and negatively compares Bakugou to him.
    Venom: It’s just… it’s hard to believe that half of your life is just gone. It wasn’t supposed to go this way… I wasn’t supposed to be here and Eddie shouldn’t be buried so far from home.
  • I'm a Humanitarian: He threatens to eat Bakugou's old lackeys to get them to piss themselves and leave them alone.
  • Kill It with Fire: His biggest weakness is fire, screaming in pain after Endeavor attacks him. Luckily for him, bonding with Bakugou improved his resistance to it, letting them withstand short bursts of flame.
  • The Nose Knows: Venom has a super-strong sense of smell that he uses to track Carnage and his offshoots.
  • Only Friend: Ever since his fall from grace, Venom has been Bakugou's only confidant. Their relationship is amicable despite their constant bickering and there's an obvious mutual respect between them.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: He's the more task oriented and patient blue to Bakugou's impatient and irritable red. When Bakugou rushes into combat, Venom tells him not to give himself away and pulls him out of danger. The dynamic is flipped when the two have someone at their mercy, as Venom giddily advocates murder while Bakugou coolly decides to leave judgment to the cops.
  • Reformed, but Not Tamed: He's solidly on the side of good in regards to keeping innocents unharmed and punishing evil. But Venom doesn't mind threatening to eat people to get them to quit bothering him and advocates the murder option when they have their opponent at their mercy.
  • Royal "We": He prefers it when he and Bakugou are referred to as a single unit with "We", pestering him to refer to themselves as such during Bakugou's recap. When the two are completely fused, they switch to "we" in all their dialogue and the narration reflects this.
  • Sweet Tooth: He constantly requests chocolate to keep himself sated between hunts.
  • Symbiotic Possession: He has this relationship with Bakugou. The two take care of each other and promise to fulfill each end of their bargain. Despite their bickering, they work well together and constantly cover each other's weaknesses in combat.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: Bakugou and Venom are constantly throwing insults at each other. Venom even mocks Bakugou during his How We Got Here narration and Bakugou constantly refers to Venom as "goop" to his annoyance. Despite this, the two of them look care for one another and cover each other's weaknesses.

    Cletus Kasady - Carnage 

Cletus Kassidy - Carnage

Debut: Sidestory: Let the Devil In

A deranged serial killer from the same world as the Venom Symbiote. He's bonded to Venom's spawn, Carnage, becoming Eddie's and Venom's worst enemy in the process. He's currently gathering followers who share his twisted view in order to turn the Earth he arrived onto a paradise for Knull.


  • Antagonistic Offspring: Carnage is Venom's spawn, becoming even more bloodthirsty than Venom himself.
  • Arch-Enemy: Of Eddie and Venom and now Bakugou.
  • Ax-Crazy: He claims to have learned nine hundred ways to slice someone open even before he obtained the Carnage symbiote.
  • Foil: To Bakugou. Both of them are highly intelligent and violent symbiote users. But while Bakugou fights to save people and is given bad press for his Destructive Savior tendencies, Cletus is adored by his followers and wants to expand his Religion of Evil to turn Earth into a living hell. Bakugou is also a case of Sir Swears-a-Lot, while Cletus is well-spoken and eloquent.
  • Combat Sadomasochist: He enjoys killing people as much as he loves getting stabbed by Toga.
  • Names to Run Away from Really Fast: You'd have to be insane to not run from someone who's named after wanton slaughter.
  • Red and Black and Evil All Over: When fully transformed into Carnage, he's an Ax-Crazy Serial Killer covered in black and red.
  • Serial Killer: Cletus loves killing people and all the different ways he can do it.
  • Super-Empowering: He can plant offshoots of Carnage into his followers to grant them powers similar to his.

Earth-2018.928

    Kyouka Jirou - Spider-Woman/Spider-Punk 

Kyouka Jirou - Spider-Woman/Spider-Punk

Debut: Sidestory: Musutafu 2099

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jirou_2099.png

In the year 2099, Alchemax and other megacorporations control almost every aspect of life including music. The daughter of a rock star chafing under the strain of their oversight, Kyouka Jirou began rebelling against the system after a fateful spider-bite from one of Alchemax’s genetic experiments. Joining with the Resistance, Kyouka uses both her powers and music to rage against the system as the one and only Spider-Woman, or as the Spider-Punk as some people call her. But not everything about her past might be the truth...


  • Action Girl: Comes with the territory of being Spider-Woman.
  • Adaptational Curves: Kyouka in canon has some A-Cup Angst and is overall not as physically well built as she is here. This is a justified case as, combined with being Spider-Woman, she's also an adult where as she was a teenager in canon.
  • Adaptational Sexuality: This version of Kyouka is in a steady relationship with Momo and doesn’t consider Karl a romantic possibility because he isn’t “her type”.
  • Batman Cold Open: She's introduced having already infiltrated Tyler Stone's penthouse before stealing a flash drive from him and beating the crap out Bakugou before smashing a window and escaping, demonstrating how she's been in the game for a while.
  • Berserk Button: Practically everything about her Crapsack World pisses her off, but Kyouka loses her cool when Momo mentions she used ImerPlus on herself. This is likely due to the fact Alchemax used the system to turn Kyouka into Spider-Woman.
  • Composite Character: Of Miguel O’Hara and Hobie Brown.
  • Double Reverse Quadruple Agent: She was apparently an Alchemax employee who volunteered to become a mole in the Resistance, getting her memories rewritten in the process. But Izuku implies that there's more than this to her, making her true allegiances unclear.
  • Experienced Protagonist: She's already been in a rebel for a while and is already a skilled saboteur and combatant.
  • Manchurian Agent: Kyouka is an Alchemax employee who volunteered to have her memories altered so she could infiltrate the Resistance. Her present self is horrified at this possibility.
  • Shameless Fanservice Girl: Doesn’t particularly mind strutting half-naked in her apartment and her suit only covers her skin, meaning that she takes off her clothes to be Spider-Woman.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Of both Doom and Alchemax. Alchemax helped to completely rewrite her memories and make her into a mole that will eventually take down the Resistance. Doom, meanwhile, knows that she is an unwitting double-agent and seeks to use Kyouka until her usefulness runs out in which case he’ll kill her.

    Detective Izuku Midoriya 

Izuku Midoriya

Debut: Sidestory: Musutafu 2099

A detective with the Musutafu Police Department's Omni subdivision. He's responsible for disciplining Heroes who break protocol one too many times, but he seems to know Spider-Woman better than she does herself.


  • Adaptational Jerkass: Izuku in canon is both a Nice Guy and an Ideal Hero. This Izuku is more brutal and has no qualms about torturing his enemies. Of course, given the Crapsack World he's in combined with Age Lift, he's more affected by his harsher environment.
  • Badass Longcoat: He wears a trenchcoat as part of his uniform and wields One For All, making him ludicrously powerful.
  • Big Damn Heroes: He shows up when Kyouka is at Kaminari's and Mineta's mercy and promptly flips the situation on its head.
  • Composite Character: The author describes him as if you threw Izuku, Rick Deckard, and Billy Butcher into a blender. He regularly dishes out severe Police Brutality, but is ultimately a good guy at his core.
  • Cowboy Cop: The Omni subdivision consists of police officers and Heroes who refused to play by Alchemax's playbook. He takes almost gleeful pleasure in his job of taking down rogue Heroes to the point of torturing them for insubordination. Despite this, he's good enough at his job to keep it, albeit his activities are drawing the ire of Alchemax's higher ups.
  • Finger Poke of Doom: He defeats Kaminari with a single clap that produced hurricane force winds.
  • Glowing Eyes of Doom: When his eyes are glowing, it's already too late to run.
  • Pay Evil unto Evil: Kaminari and Mineta are part of the system Alchemax uses to keep dissidents suppressed, and Izuku not only beats him bloody with a simple gesture, but he proceeds to shoot Kaminari's hand and knee until he submits to arrest.
  • Police Brutality: It seems to be his M.O., given the grievous and unnecessary harm he deals out to Kaminari to torture him into submission. That said, given that his targets tend to be the corrupt Hero system playing to Alchemax's fiddle, it's easy to root for him.
  • Shockwave Clap: He deals with Kaminari this way, blasting him away with a single clap that leaves the Hero bloody, bruised, and embedded in a wall.
  • Super-Strength: He appears to have already mastered One For All, regulating the amount of damage he deals by dealing with foes with a single gesture rather than an outright smash.

Earth-2018.71004

    Izuku 

Izuku

Debut: Sidestory: The Eyes of The Spider

A young peasant boy who is the bastard child of Sir Hizashi of House Midoriya. Despite not being born as one of the Witchbreed, having a weak body, and no talent with magic he has dreamed of becoming a knight and going on grand heroic adventures. His destiny changed forever when he was blessed by the spider goddess Uttu to become her champion and save his land from Lord Beck...


  • Adaptational Personality Change: A minor example, but this version of Izuku is far more willing to drown his sorrows with alcohol.
  • Nice Guy: Much like the canon version of Izuku, this version wants to become a knight solely to help people in trouble.
  • Only Friend: To Sir Parquagh, due to him being the only person willing to believe him.

Cosmic Beings

    The One Below All 

One Below All

Debut: Sidestory - As Above, So Below

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/obaimage.jpeg
"I howl through many mouths! I break with many hands! They are themselves but they are also me! I have all the power you give me and my weapon is HATE!!"
Just as there is a counter force for every force, a shadow for every light, and a reaction for every action, there is the One Below All. The One Below is the dark twin of the Marvel multiverse's top god, the One Above All. While there have been many hell lords and devils claiming to be the one true embodiment of evil, the One Below All may be the true source of all evil, or at least the closest of any evil entity.

Like the One Above All, the One Below All is apart from the physical universes, but is barred from the rest of the multiverse, and can only extend itself through others and guide events while taking no direct role. It yearns to be free from the lowest point of creation, and attempts to do so by reaching into the mind of one Aoko Kurisu as she’s researching an odd form of gamma radiation.
