There's more than just them.

A list of characters in LEGO Marvel Superheroes 2.

open/close all folders

Heroes

Avengers and Close Allies

Guardians of the Galaxy

The Guardians in General

Guardians of the Galaxy

A group of heroes who respond to Nova Prime's distress call on Xandar in the beginning of the game.

Badass Crew: The're called the "Guardians of the Galaxy" because this Ragtag Bunch of Misfits are very capable inter-galactic heroes when working together.
Big Damn Heroes: They show up to drive Kang out of Xandar.
Bunny-Ears Lawyer: All quirky and weird, but they're good fighters and superheroes.
Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: While badass, the Guardians are an odd bunch of people.
Retcon: In Superheroes, they were based on their contemporary comic versions. Come this game, they're based after their MCU counterparts, even changing the scene where they talk with Nick Fury from Superheroes to match.

Star-Lord

Star-Lord / Peter Quill

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snapshot_38.png

"Star Lord, legendary outlaw."

Voiced by: Kerry Shale

The leader of the Guardians.

Ascended Extra: From a cameo in the first game to a big-time character in the second.
Cool Mask: Deploys his signature space-mask when either he's flying or the player presses the alternate trigger.
Cool Ship: Pilots The Milano.
Dancing Is Serious Business: Black Bolt snaps him out of the Supreme Intelligence's brainwashing by playing on him being so big about dancing that he can't help but groove in the face of a dance-off.
Guns Akimbo: Has two blasters.
Idiot Hero: Sometimes does stupid things through the game, such as cheating at a card game in The Old West, setting off an alarm at Kang's Citadel which alerts every guard available and holding a radioactive device at the wrong end.
The Knights Who Say "Squee!": Is overjoyed to be working with Kid Colt. Too bad Kid Colt doesn't have a clue who he is.
Noodle Incident: It's never stated why he has wanted posters of himself pasted everywhere in The Old West.
Weapons That Suck: His gravity grenades, which are used to pull in objects when the need arises.
While Rome Burns: Can casually pull out his mixtape during a combat scenario, which causes all enemies in the area to dance.
Yank the Dog's Chain: Actually gets a compliment for Medusa for helping fight the Supreme Intelligence... but she still flubs his name.

Drax

Drax the Destroyer / Arthur Douglas

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snapshot_34_8.png

"I did look, then I leaped."

The muscle of the Guardians.

Character Catchphrase: He often exclaims "We are victorius!" after the Guardians beat an immediate threat, usually when the foe beaten is not the biggest problem.
Dumb Muscle: Is the strongest out of the Guardians, but often does really stupid things.
Large Ham: Everything this guy says screams Boisterous Bruiser.
Literal-Minded: His main trait, just like in the MCU, is being Sarcasm-Blind and taking everything he hears at face-value, which infuriates Rocket to the point of outright lampshading.
Rocket Racoon: Why you gotta take everything so literally!?
Drax: Are you accusing me of stealing?
Walking Shirtless Scene: He is as usual very adamant about wearing nothing on his torso. This almost resulted in a Disney Villain Death from the Milano to Xandar due to a misunderstanding and this tendency resulting in him not wearing a rocket pack, but luckily Star-Lord saves him in time.

Gamora

Gamora Zen Whoberi Ben Titan

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snapshot_35_6.png

"I am ready to face any challenge!"

The butt-kicking female of the Guardians.

Action Girl: Has her title of "The Most Dangerous Woman in the Galaxy".
Adaptational Wimp: Lacks her film counterpart's Super-Strength.
Badass in Distress: She and Groot get captured by Nathan Garrett's henchmen.
Frying Pan of Doom: Saves Quill from getting beaten up in the Wild West by braining his would-be attackers with a frying pan.
Green-Skinned Space Babe: Her overall appearance is a cute and attractive borderline Human Alien whose only peculiarity is green skin.
Katanas Are Just Better: Her Godslayer sword is shaped like a katana.
Last of Their Kind: The only survivor of her species, the Zen Whoberians.
Le Parkour: Gamora has the athletics ability, which allows her to jump higher than average.
Only Sane Woman: The least zaniest of the Guardians, which means she often comments on the stupidity and craziness of her cohorts.
The Smurfette Principle: In the story about the Guardians? Yes, she's the only female. If you take Mantis into account? No, though it's still a limited case of Two Girls to a Team.
When She Smiles: She rarely smiles in the game, but notable examples of when she does are in the ending comic for the Gwenpool Mission about her surprise birthday party.

Rocket Raccoon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snapshot_36_8.png

"This is gonna be great!"

Voiced by: Mikey O'Connor

The brains of the Guardians.

Aliens of London: He has an accent here like he did in the previous game, but it's more of a New York accent than the Cockney one he had before.
Badass in Distress: He and Groot get captured in the Wild West, and Star-Lord has to free them.
Beast Man: He's a bipedal raccoon.
Flight: His "Ravager" version from the Guardian of the Galaxy Vol. 2 DLC pack gets the Jet Pack he has in that movie for at-will aerial propulsion.
Gun Nut: Utilizes a variety of ranged weaponry through the story and is very enthusiastic about shooting stuff.
More Dakka: Turns his pistol into a minigun via several attachments after seeing The Circus of Crime kidnap Groot.
Mr Fix It: Can fix broken objects.
Never My Fault: In level 18, "The Road to Knowhere", Rocket flips a switch that brings Ego the Living Planet to Earth. When Ego asked who brought him to Earth, Rocket shrugs it off, despite being the person who flipped the switch!.
Only in It for the Money: Rocket's first concern is getting paid. Even when brainwashed.
Rascally Raccoon: His raccoony nature, even despite being an Uplifted Animal, results in him being pretty much the most kleptomaniac Guardian.
Repeating So the Audience Can Hear: He often repeats or responds to Groot's comments so the player can get in on the conversation.
Shock and Awe: Can modify his gun to shoot a beam of electricity.
The Smart Guy: He's the guy with all the technological know-how among the Guardians, and as such is both the only member that can use tech panels and the only other person who can help out with Iron Man and Giant Man on various tech-related things.
Stuff Blowing Up: Rocket can throw grenades which can destroy silver bricks.
Technobabble: Subverted, as the explanation to Star-Lord on how to use Knowhere's EMP capabilities to fry the shield protecting Kang's Citadel is in fact accurate, but after Star-Lord gives a bewildered reaction, Rocket just tells him to leave it to Tony since he and Spider Man are going there too.
Star-Lord: You were saying?
Rocket Raccoon: Cosmo has diverted most of Knowhere's primary energy through a series of sub relay stations. When you get up there, reinstate the main singularity cell. The resulting Faraday Effect will create a distortion field via the quantum emitter. Any questions?
Star-Lord looks at Rocket dumbfounded
Rocket Raccoon: Argh, you know what, just leave it to Stark.
You Are Number 6: The only other name he has (besides the nickname Rocky) is "Subject 89P13", due to being an Uplifted Animal that Escaped from the Lab.

Groot

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snapshot_37.png

"I am Groot!"

Voiced by: Stefan Ashton Frank

He is Groot.

The Cutie: Ms. Marvel and Gwenpool like noting how adorable Baby Groot is, and he's usually found doing things that emphasize his cute baby mindset.
Don't Touch It, You Idiot!: Apparently a recurring problem for Baby Groot is pressing things he shouldn't. But then, he is a baby.
Dual Age Modes: Thanks to a piece of technology he and Rocket stole from Kang's forces in Xandar, he is able to shift from his sprig and adult form at will. For some reason, the same device won't work on anything else as noted by Rocket.
Green Thumb: Is able to utilize special spots for using his tree powers.
Heterosexual Life-Partners: He and Rocket Raccoon have an inseparably close bond.
Hypocritical Humor: Remarks on how little Black Bolt says. Rocket comments that he's no-one to talk.
Might as Well Not Be in Prison at All: After being imprisoned by the evil Black Knight, Groot manages to slip through the cell's grate due to being an infant, prompting an incredulous Gamora to ask if he could've done that the whole time.
Palette Swap: Baby Groot has a collectable alternate costume that's wearing his Ravager outfit from the Guardian Vol. 2 movie, which plays exactly the same as regular Baby Groot, Dual Age Modes transformation included.
Plant Aliens: He's a tree-like alien.
Pokémon Speak: Can only say "I am Groot!" with only the Guardians being able to understand him somehow. The first level does have him say "Whoaaa!" though.
Ridiculously Cute Critter: His sprig form is tiny and adorably cuddly, something Ms. Marvel and Gwenpool gush about.
Treants: He's a humanoid sentient tree.

Adam Warlock

Flying Brick: He possesses inherent Flight, incredibly mighty Super-Strength, and can No-Sell all elemental damage alongside having a Healing Factor.
Kung-Fu Wizard: A good part of his powerset is access to "quantum magic", which grants him similar powers to Doctor Strange like being a Time Master, having Teleportation, and being able to use runes, though replacing Mind Control with a fiery energy beam. He's also pretty decent in a brawl, particular through magically-enhanced punches

Mantis

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_5_19.jpg

Voiced by: Teresa Gallagher

Composite Character: She has the looks, voice, and overall persona of the MCU version, but her having Action Girl prowess and a few more Psychic Powers than just being The Empath is taken from the comics.
The Empath: Uses her powers to help distressed citizens look on the bright side of being in Chronopolis until the issue is entirely sorted out.
Nice Girl: The entire point of her quest is to help distraught citizens.
No-Sell: Somehow is immune to toxins, both as sludge and as gas. Possibly caused by her comics versions becoming part plant after being raised by Plant Aliens.
Psychic Powers: In addition to being The Empath, she also has Mind over Matter skills, psychically-enhanced Super-Senses, and the power to release psychic bursts from her antennae.
Rubber-Forehead Aliens: She looks pretty much human save for the antennae.
The Voiceless: Only engages in Voice Grunting when played as.

Yondu

Yondu Udonta

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_6_15.jpg

Voiced by: Pedro Lloyd Gardiner

Fetch Quest: He tasks the player with retrieving some items that were stolen from him, but unlike most examples of this trope which have the Quest Giver stay behind while you go look for something, Yondu decides to come with you personally to find them.
Hypocritical Humor: He hates that other pirates stole his loot despite him blatantly stating in the very same sentence that he himself stole it in the first place, even asking the player to help him steal back the stuff he very openly admits to stealing.
Not Quite Flight: He can glide through the air (like Mary Poppins, y'all!) by holding onto his arrow.
Trick Arrow: As usual, has his special super-sharp cyber-arrow that can be controlled at will by whistling.
The Voiceless: Only engages in Voice Grunting when played as.

The Spiders

The Spiders in General

A list of the several Spider characters besides regular Peter Parker.

Animal-Themed Superbeing: The main thing tying them all together is possessing both the image and powerset of spiders
Projectile Webbing: With the sole exception of Spider-Woman, all Spider-Folk can shoot a sticky webbing from their wrists, most through artifical shooters and a few organically, which allows them to both Building Swing and render foes All Webbed Up.
Spider-Sense: Except for Spider-Woman and Spider-UK, every other Spider-Person possesses the same danger-detection as classic Peter Parker.

Aracnido Jr.

Masked Luchador: He's a Mexican man whose Spider-Suit is heavily themed after masked lucha libre wrestlers, since he took up the his identity after his luchador father was killed. His unlock quest has him getting involved in an actual wrestling tournament, but his partner is a no-show, requiring the player to help out.
Legacy Character: His hero identity is directly based on his father's luchador identity, in order to preserve his memory after he died to criminals.

Scarlet Spider

Scarlet Spider / Benjamín "Ben" Reilly

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_2_41.jpg

Civvie Spandex: His outfit is a hoodie over a red jumpsuit.
Clones Are People, Too: He was created by Jackal to be an Expendable Clone for defeating Peter Parker, but after getting defeated himself and re-thinking his existence, he took on his own name and Spider-identity to live a life separate from the original.
Palette Swap: Being a literal clone of Peter, he has the exact same moveset as him, and his collectible nature means he doesn't even get unique idle animations, meaning he's only unique by way of his Civvie Spandex design.

Silk

Silk / Cindy Moon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_7_84.jpg

Brought to You by the Letter "S": Has an "s" in the middle of her chest, representing her "Silk" hero name.
Odd Name Out: She's the only Spider-Person in the game who doesn't directly use "spider" in her hero name (even Aracnido Jr. uses the Spanish word for spider).
The Voiceless: Since she's just a collectible unlockable, the only sounds she makes are from Voice Grunting.

Spider-Gwen

Spider-Gwen / Gwendolyn "Gwen" Stacy

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snapshot_54_1.png

"Nope. Looks from the future."

What happens when Gwen Stacy gets bitten by the spider instead?

Adaptational Badass: Before, she was a Joke Character comparable to Aunt May. Here, she packs way more abilities and is even involved in the plot.
Ambiguous Syntax: When Carnom declares that he "must... step on... the spider," Gwen's not sure if Carnom's talking about her or Peter Parker. He then clarifies, "Squish... all the spiders!"
Dimensional Traveller: Her frequent adventures throughout other realities using her portal generator gets referenced by her overall Seen It All attitude about meeting mainline Peter and running into Goblin 2099.
Distaff Counterpart: To pretty much nearly the entire Spider roster, being the only Spider-Person that's female (Silk doesn't count by virtue of using a different type of code-name).
Glass-Shattering Sound: Can pull out a drumkit to break glass.
Hero of Another Story: The opening cutscene for "On Board the Sword" shows her brawling with Kang's goons in the Wild West.
Thinking Up Portals: She can access locations via generating small rifts using her Interdimensional Travel Device.

Spider-Ham

Spider-Ham / Peter Porker

Alternate Self: He's a version of Peter Parker that originates from a World of Funny Animals that all have Punny Names, so this version of him is the pig Peter Porker.
Beware the Silly Ones: Originating from a story heavily steeped in Looney Tunes-style goofiness, Spider-Ham is the least serious among the Spider-Folk, but underestimate him at your own peril, because he's just as skilled and badass as any other Spider.
Dimensional Traveller: Just like Spider-Gwen, he's apparently Seen It All in regards to all the different shenanigens that can happen in alternate realities, and his unlock quest has him looking for his fellow Funny Animal heroes that were transported with him when Chronopolis formed.

Spider-Man 2099

Spider-Man 2099 / Miguel O'Hara

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snapshot_53_2.png

"The future is depending on me... well, one possible future from a different reality, anyway."

Voiced by: Ronan Summers

Former Alchemax scientist turned Spider.

Bowdlerise: His trading card states that he disagreed with Alchemax's practices rather than mentioning he left because he accidentally had a test subject killed. It also just states Miguel was "poisoned", which is technically true... just that it avoids mentioning that it was with a drug Alchemax made.
Not Quite Flight: His web-wings let him sort-of glide a short distance alongside the regular Building Swing.
Wolverine Claws: His talons give him slightly enhanced melee attacks alongside being able to dig and cut vines.

Spider-Man Noir

Spider-Man Noir / Peter Parker

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snapshot_55.png

"Let's just say we have a few things in common."

Alternate Self: He's the Marvel Noir counterpart to regular Spidey.
Dark Is Not Evil: His Deliberately Monochrome appearance and primarily black coloration does nothing to diminish how he's just as heroic as normal Spidey
Lighter and Softer: He's an Anti-Hero in his source material. Not so much here.
Superhero Packing Heat: The major distinction between Noir and Regular Spidey is that this version carries guns.

Spider-Woman

Spider-Woman / Jessica Drew

Flight: Something that sets her apart from other Spiders is inherently possessing the ability to fly, unlike them requiring the use of webbing to Building Swing.
Flying Firepower: In contrast to every other Spider's powersets involving shooting artificial or organic webbing and having Super-Senses in the form of the Spider-Sense, Jessica's powers instead involve generating and shooting bio-electricity along with possessing inherent Flight, though she can't fly and shoot electricity at the same time.
Mythology Gag: Her unlock race finishes in the Hydra Empire, referencing how she was raised under Hydra by Madame Hydra before eventually defecting when she realized how evil they are.
Shock and Awe: Part of her type of spider-powers is generating bio-electricity that she can shoot as blasts or beams.

Superior Spider-Man

Superior Spider Man / Otto Octavius

Dark Is Evil: His spidey outfit is red with black, rather than Peter's blue, and he's Doc Ock running around in Peter's hijacked body. Granted, Peter's conscience does slowly influence him into being more heroic, which turns it around into Dark Is Not Evil.
Grand Theft Me: He came to be from Octavius getting his mind transplanted into Peter's body, and as such his Voice Grunting is the same as Peter's.
Multi-Armed and Dangerous: Being Doctor Octavius in Peter's body, he takes cues from the Iron Spider by having four mechanical spider legs that bring to mind his original Combat Tentacles. He's also the biggest Anti-Hero among the Spider-Folks, being an outright Nominal Hero when he started out.
The Voiceless: As a collectable unlockable, his only sounds come from Peter Parker-like Voice Grunting.

Ultimate Spider-Man

Ultimate Spider-Man / Miles Morales

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_8_27.jpg

Big Damn Heroes: Teams up with Ms. Marvel and Howard the Duck to save Gwenpool.
Dark Is Not Evil: His costume is black with red, but he's just as much a good guy as Peter.
Legacy Character: Took up the mantle of Spider-Man from the Peter Parker of his universe.
Shock and Awe: While not able to focus it into a beam for charging generators, his stunningly shocking Venom Strike is still present as his charged attack.

The Inhumans

The Inhumans in General

The Inhumans

Ascended Extra: Black Bolt was a collectible unlockable in the first game, several more characters were added as collectibles and Quest Givers in Marvel's Avengers, but it's in this game where the whole race gets their chance to shine, having both an entire arc revolving around them dealing with Maximus and including Attilan itself for several puzzles and side-quests relating to Inhuman society.
Royals Who Actually Do Something: All of them, except for Inferno and Lockjaw, are members of the Inhuman royal family.

Black Bolt

Black Bolt / Blackagar Boltagon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_022616_youtube.jpg

King of Attilan.

Badass Boast:
- Medusa tells the others that Black Bolt is going to speak to Ronan.
- Makes one himself when his brother asks for mercy despite the fact that he only just tried to kill them.
  Black Bolt: SILENCE!
Cain and Abel: He's the Abel, Maximus is the Cain.
Dark Is Not Evil: Despite his dark appearance, he defends his people from the Kree and helps the Avengers stop Kang.
Elective Mute: Just like in the comics, he can talk, he just chooses not to because his voice can destroy things.
Happily Married: His marriage to Medusa is a very loving one.
Heroic Mime: For good reason. His voice alone can obliterate Chronopolis if he whispers too loudly.
Sneeze of Doom: His idle animation has him feel a sneeze coming, which for understandable reasons is bad to let loose, to which he pinches his nose and holds his mouth shut, an effort just barely enough to limit his sneeze to "only" making a ground-shaking sonic boom.
Super-Scream: His voice is capable of causing massive destruction with a single uttered word, which he can put to good use by letting loose small whispers to create shockwaves that shatter glass and knock back foes.
Truer to the Text: His appearance in the first game had his Super-Scream be represented by the basic forceful yell, which was major Gameplay and Story Segregation since him actually yelling would cause city-wide destruction instead of just a Glass-Shattering Sound. This game giving him a bigger role with more dedicated effort applied to his moveset rectifies that into a more canon-accurate example where he focuses his voice into a single small whisper to shatter glass and knock back enemies.

Medusa

Medusa / Medusalith Amaquelin Boltagon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_022549_youtube_1.jpg

"You really do spoil me."

Voiced by: Teresa Gallagher

Black Bolt's wife and Queen of Attilan.

Description Porn: Enthralled by Black Bolt "telling" her what he's planning to do to Ronan's base.
Fiery Redhead: Her bright red hair compliments her rather aggressive, if controlled, attitude.
Not Quite Flight: She can use her hair as a makeshift parachute to glide short distances.
Prehensile Hair: Her main method of fighting and puzzle-solving involves manipulating her long, voluminous hair at will.
Proper Lady: Acts polite and civilized.
Repeating So the Audience Can Hear: Does this most of the time when speaking for Black Bolt.
Voice for the Voiceless: Black Bolt communicates telepathically to her to avoid speaking for himself and destroying the area.

Crystal

Crystal / Crystalia Amaquelin

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_022421_youtube.jpg

An Inhuman who can access the elements.

Combo Platter Powers: Her beam attack changes with each use. Mercifully, it also changes accordingly depending on what you're aiming at (so, if aimed at something gold, it'll automatically switch to fire).
Elemental Powers: Crystal can shoot Fire, Ice, Lightning attacks, can unearth buried objects with her geokinesis, uses her aerokinesis to assemble stuff and fly, and use her aquakinesis to replicate Super Swimming Skills or generate protective barriers.
An Ice Person: She can combine her aquakinesis and aerokinesis powers to generate freezing-cold water for icing over enemies and extinguishing fires.
Shock and Awe: In the comics Crystal can only manipulate the primary four elements, but here her powers extend to lighnting generation and manipulation as well, since she can already control the semi-related elements of fire and air.
Wrench Wench: Can fix broken objects and is seen altering some technology in The Inhumans' debut cutscene.

Triton

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_022145_youtube.jpg

An Inhuman with a fishlike body and powers that come with the downside of being unable to breath outside water, and Karnak's brother.

Fish People: Has the appearance and respiration of a humanoid fish.
Mobile Fishbowl: His fishlike biology requires having a constant source of water flowing through his lungs, which to live on land is achieved by wearing inverted breathing gear that pumps water instead of air.
Prongs of Poseidon: His weapon is a three-pronged trident that fits his aquatic appearance.

Lockjaw

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_022218_youtube.jpg

The Inhumans' lovable pet dog. Loves playing, chasing laser pointers, and jumping across planes of existence.

Big Friendly Dog: He's a dog bigger than most people, but his massive size detracts nothing from his friendly and lovable demeanor.
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Storywise, Lockjaw can teleport across universal distances without breaking a sweat. Gameplay-wise, it's another story.
Stout Strength: He's a pretty chubby dog who has Super-Strength.
Teleportation: His primary ability is being able to teleport anywhere and everywhere he chooses, though Gameplay and Story Segregation means he's limited to Teleport Spam and travel between two specific spots.

Gorgon

Gorgon Petragon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_2_071.jpg

Carry a Big Stick: His personal weapon is a sturdy metal mace, which he likes channeling his generated seismic energy into to best focus it into a Shockwave Stomp.
Non-Indicative Name: His given name is Gorgon and his surname brings to mind petrification, but his Inhuman power isn't to make people Taken for Granite, it's producing Shockwave Stomps
Shockwave Stomp: His Inhuman power is similar to Quake in that he generates seismic energy, but unlike her ability to focus it into manipulating earth, he can only use it to produce destructive shockwaves.
Super-Strength: His claim to fame among the Royal Family is him naturally possessing absurd strength even when compared to other Inhumans.

Karnak

Karnak Mander-Azur

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_1_246.jpg

Awesomeness by Analysis: Detecting weakness in everything he sees is a big part of his skillset, such as easily telling what the "Transformer" has turned into throughout his unlock quest.
Badass Normal: Karnak was never exposed to the terrigen mists, after what happened to his brother Triton, so he doesn't have any superpowers. Doesn't make him any the weaker, though, as he's trained his body and mind to keep up with those possessing actual powers.
Charles Atlas Superpower: While he deliberately avoided undergoing terragenesis out of fear for what he would gain or become, he's trained his body to be superhuman even by the standards of Inhumans, allowing him to be plenty capable of facing superbeings on equal footing.

Inferno

Inferno / Dante Pertuz

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_691.jpg

Dark Is Not Evil: His costume has a Red and Black and Evil All Over aesthetic, and when fully using his powers his skin turns charcoal-black, but despite the intimidating appearance he's completely on the side of good.
Flaming Hair: Part of becoming Wreathed in Flames when using his powers is that his spiky flame-shaped hair turns into literal fire.
Flying Firepower: By shooting fire from his feet, he can propel himself through the air alongside shooting flames from his hands.
Playing with Fire: His Inhuman power is to generate intense flames from his body.
Punny Name: He's a guy named Dante who after gaining Playing with Fire powers rechristened himself "Inferno". He himself noted how "on-the-nose" it was in the comics.
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: A youthful superhero with fire powers that make him a Flying Firepower who gets Wreathed in Flames? Nope, not ringing a bell.
Wreathed in Flames: When seriously using fire powers in any way besides Flight, his entire body ignites in a constant blaze.

Local Heroes

Medieval England

Black Knight (Dane)

Black Knight / Dane Whitman

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_838.jpg

Ki Manipulation: Somehow, by channeling his will into his blade, he can imbue it with Iron Fist-like chi properties, which in practice makes it a Flaming Sword that can also power chi dragons.
Legacy Character: To both Sir Percy and Nathan Garrett (to whom he was a Redeeming Replacement).
Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: Carries a shield that can block attacks from the front.
Magic Knight: He can access rune portals like Doctor Strange
The Voiceless: Never utters a word when played as, at most uttering Voice Grunting when fighting or jumping.

Black Knight (Percival)

Black Knight / Sir Percival of Scandia

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_161807_youtube.jpg

Badass in Distress: He's locked up by his villainous descendant, who impersonates him.
Black Knight: In looks, if not in personality.
Cool Sword: The Ebony Blade, which gives off a black trail as Sir Percival runs.
Gameplay and Story Segregation: The Ebony Blade is supposed to have a blood curse, making the wielder bad-tempered and irrational the longer they hold it, along with becoming stronger and more dangerous the more it kills. This isn't a problem here.
The Guards Must Be Crazy: He lampshades this when two guards assigned to look over Black Knight (Nathan Garrett) and the Enchantress tell him that they escaped, but for some reason, didn't actually go to try and stop them. He plans to point this out in their performance reports.

King Arthur

King Arthur Pendragon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_0631.jpg

Asskicking Leads to Leadership: While he himself is more a case of Rank Scales with Asskicking, he personally believes he's not a "true" king unless he's frequently doing badass things like slaying dragons.
Cain and Abel: The Abel to his half-sister Morgana's Cain.
A Day in the Limelight: He and Merlin are the protagonists of their own Gwenpoole Mission.
Excalibur: Part and parcel of being King Arthur is wielding his most famed Cool Sword.

Merlin

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_1_447.jpg

The Archmage: As the quintessential wizard, he has just as many magical powers as Sorceror Supreme Doctor Strange and shares the same immense skill at using them.
Color Coded Magic: His various spells all take on a calm, heroic blue when cast.
Magic Knight: To compliment his magic, he also carries a short-sword that he can imbue his magic into to act as a Spell Blade.
Wizard Classic: He's Merlin after all, so naturally he has the Robe and Wizard Hat, the Wizard Beard, the sagely old overall image, and of course he's The Archmage.

The Old West

Western Heroes in General

Marvel Heroes of the Old West

Guns Akimbo: While Two-Gun Kid bases his identity on using two guns, every other cowboy also dual-wields pistols for increased shooting speed.
The Gunslinger: Being based around the Wild West, every cowboy (and cowgirl) uses their guns with style and skill, engaging in trick shots and capable of the Quick Draw.

Arizona Girl

Arizona Girl / Arizona Annie

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_150814_youtube.jpg

Action Girl: As a member of the gunslinging Western squad, she is a very capable woman in a fight, and in fact has a strong hatred towards any men that underestimate her just because she's a lady.
Effortless Amazonian Lift: She uses this to toss Star-Lord onto the train after Kid Colt.
Fetch Quest: Sends the player off to recover some horses for her.
Guns Akimbo: Just like her fellow guys, she wields two pistols for rapid-fire shooting.
The Smurfette Principle: The sole female among the Western heroes.
Throw Down the Bomblet: Throws dynamite to break silver LEGO pieces.

Kid Colt

Kid Colt / Blaine Colt

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_150822_youtube.jpg

Guns Akimbo: Wields two pistols for rapid-fire shooting.
Hero with Bad Publicity: He's a good person, but is an outlaw due to a crime he didn't commit.
Little "No": His reaction to Star-Lord trying to make train puns when they're fighting on one.
Throw Down the Bomblet: Throws dynamite to break silver LEGO pieces.
Weapon Twirling: Twirls about his left gun when left idle.

Phantom Rider

Phantom Rider / Ghost Rider / Carter Slade

Cool Horse: Being a "Rider" means he needs a badass mount, and Banshee definitely fits the bill, being a ghost-white stallion with impressive strength and speed.
Empowered Badass Normal: He was already The Gunslinger when he started out, then his near-death-experience and healing by Native American medicine man Flaming Star also resulted in spirits empowering him for the sake of justice, granting him powers like Teleportation and Invisibility.
Precursor Hero: He acted under the name of Ghost Rider during the Old West, before eventually changing to Phantom Rider, long before that title became co-opted by the Spirits of Vengeance legacy group.

Rawhide Kid

Rawhide Kid / Jonathan Clay

Character Focus: He and Red Wolf get a Gwenpool mission of their own.
The Comically Serious: He's always got a stern, focused look on his face and takes his efforts to protect the Old West very seriously, but his ditziness and poor tracking skills provide quite a bit of comedy from him honestly believing he's doing a good job looking for the Living Totem.
The Ditz: Rawhide Kid means well, but... his tracking skills are suspiciously lacking.
Guns Akimbo: Wields two pistols for rapid-fire shooting.
Throw Down the Bomblet: Throws dynamite to break silver LEGO pieces.

Red Wolf

Red Wolf / Johnny Wakely

Voiced by: Colin McFarlane

Badass Native: His strong Native American accent, wolf-skin hat, Walking Shirtless Scene status, and wolf-like skills in combat combine to make this Cheyenne man a pinnacle of indigenous badassery.
Precision-Guided Boomerang: When he needs to hit something at a distance, he brings out a tomahawk that flies at the target before returning to his hand.
Walking Shirtless Scene: His "outfit" as the Red Wolf completely excludes wearing anything on his torso, exposing his toned musculature even when he goes to colder climates like snowy Manhattan.

Two-Gun Kid

Two-Gun Kid / Matthew "Matt" Hawk

Guns Akimbo: As noted by his very name, he's always using two guns even when other gunslingers use just one (which isn't this game). His unlock quest involves him having to retrieve one of those guns after it's stolen from him, since having only one gun throws off his image.
Knows the Ropes: In addition to his guns, he's got a lasso he can latch onto grapple points.
Legacy Character: He's actually the second Two-Gun Kid, something he mentions at the end of his quest.

Other Base-Game Heroes

Agent Venom

Agent Venom / Eugene "Flash" Thompson

Combat Tentacles: He can sprout tentacles like other symbiotes, but unlike Venom, Venom 2099, and Carnage, who always have them out to use in melee combat, Agent Venom only sprouts them for the scattershot Charged Attack,
Fights Like a Normal: He prefers to fight with either his guns or his fists, only using his symbiote powers for the Charged Attack or Building Swing, likely due to overexerting his symbiote powers risking him going berserk.
Good Counterpart: Flash uses the Venom symbiote to act as a heroic version of Eddie Brock's Venom.
Noodle Incident: Implied to have nearly been the victim of a manhunt against symbiotes.
Superhero Packing Heat: He carries guns, unlike regular Venom, who just uses tentacles and his fists (because this Venom works for the US government).

America Chavez

America Chavez / Ms. America

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_3_25.jpg

Voiced by: Elena Saurel

Dimensional Traveller: Part of her character is travelling across dimensions to fight evil, which is represented in-game by her Teleportation ability.
Fetch Quest: Asks the player to gather as many samples of pizza from across Chronopolis, since she's trying to introduce it to Lady Kate Bishop.
Flying Brick: A slightly lesser example, as she has Flight and Super-Strength, but she lacks either Super-Toughness or a Healing Factor, only having the ability to No-Sell toxins and fire.
Mysterious Past: As her bio notes, she's a mysterious interdimensional traveller with mysterious anger issues.

Beta-Ray Bill

Beta Ray Bill

Demoted to Extra: Got a quest in Avengers. Here, he's just an unlockable character in the storyline.
Shock and Awe: His hammer-axe Stormbreaker is a sister-weapon to Mjolnir, and as such it can also be charged with electricity for both combat and generator-charging.
Thunder Hammer Stormbreaker is a hammer-axe built as a sister-weapon to Mjolnir, making it both super-tough for crushing foes and capable of creating lightning.

Blade

Blade / Eric Brooks

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_4_21.jpg

Voiced by: Tom Clarke-Hill

Dhampyr: He's half-human half-vampire, which gives him most of the regular vampire powers with none of the weaknesses besides a Horror Hunger, particularly his Daywalking Vampire status that got him the title "Daywalker".
Hero of Another Story: He and Bessie the Hellcow have been off having their own bizarre adventures through Chronopolis.
Odd Friendship: Despite Blade's general lack of love for any undead, he and Hellcow have teamed up.
Regenerating Health: Him being half-vampire comes packed with a health-rejuvinating Healing Factor.
Speaks Fluent Animal: A limited example, as he's somehow able to have mutual conversation with Hellcow despite her only "talking" in moos. Him being a Dhampyr and her being a vampire cow somewhat implies he's able to understand the speech of vampiric animals due to their spiritual connection as fellow bloodsuckers.
Weak, but Skilled: His nature as a Dhampyr means he lacks bonafide Super-Strength and Flight, but what he lacks in sheer power, he makes up for with trained swordsmanship backed by enhanced agility and decently boosted strength, alongside possessing Super-Senses and Super-Reflexes.

Blue Marvel

Blue Marvel / Adam Brashear

Flying Brick: He's superstrong, capable of flying, and completely immune to pretty much all damage.
Genius Bruiser: In addition to his Flying Brick powers, he's also brainy enough to use tech panels.
No-Sell: He's immune to fire, lightning, and toxic goo damage.
Shock and Awe: His primary power is to generate intense electricity, which he uses for either shocking foes or powering generators.

Chipmunk Hunk & Koi Boy

Chipmunk Hunk & Koi Boy / Tomas Lara-Perez & Ken Shiga

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/psx_20190628_130205.jpg

Squirrel Girl's sidekicks, and assistants with F.U.Z.Y.

Heart Is an Awesome Power: Like Squirrel Girl, they have powers that on paper are pretty ridiculous, but are still capable heroes in their own right with impressive applications of their skillsets.
Speaks Fluent Animal: Similar to Squirrel girl they can talk to their namesake animals, though Koi Boi can actually talk to all marine life, but "marine life" doesn't combine into a catchy name like koi. Koi Boi also gets annoyed when people confuse how his powers work, such as turtles being reptiles, neither fish nor fish-adjacent.
Super-Strength: Similar to Squirrel Girl, they possess chipmunk and fish strength, which lets Chipmunk Hunk rip off green handle and Koi Boi smash down cracked walls, though oddly not both at once.
Those Two Guys: When not around Squirrel Girl, the two mainly hang around each other, commenting on various things around them relating to heroism.

Daredevil

Daredevil / Matthew "Matt" Murdock

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_150158_youtube.jpg

"Bad news! Being an evil henchmen? That's kind of against the law!"

Voiced by: Ronan Summers

Disability Superpower: The accident that blinded him also boosted the rest of his senses into Super-Senses, which not only acts as a Disability-Negating Superpower but also makes him a Living Lie Detector and provides a low-scale Spider-Sense.
Handicapped Badass: Blind, but gifted lawyer and vigilante martial artist.
Super-Senses: His Disability Superpower revolves around exchanging the ability to see for super-humanly enhanced hearing, smell, taste, and touch. He normally uses it to act as a Living Lie Detector, but it also provides a Spider-Sense and turns him into a Scarily Competent Tracker, at least in gameplay.

Darkhawk

Darkhawk / Christopher "Chris" Powell

Animal-Themed Superbeing: While the Darkhawk armor has a beak-like face and wings resembling a hawk, Darkhawk's actual powers aren't really very hawklike, with even the flight coming less from the wings and more from jet propulsion.
Chest Blaster: A prominent part of his armor is a chest-mounted forcefield blaster for shooting super-hot energy bolts and beams.
Dark Is Not Evil: His armor is as dark as his name implies, and the visor invokes Red Eyes, Take Warning, but Chris is overall a very heroic guy who's reluctant to even enter Anti-Hero territory.
Invisibility Cloak: He's capable of activating a camouflage mode for sneaking past cameras.
Powered Armor: His armor is a hawk-themed mechanized high-tech suit that provides a plethora of abilities even Chris doesn't fully comprehend.
Wolverine Claws: His suit's metallic hawk talons are sharp enough to provide an "edge" in combat, alongside letting him dig up dirt and cut vines.

Fin Fang Foom

A giant alien dragon that used to antagonize Iron Man and various other heroes, but he eventually turned a new leaf and became part-time hero, part-time chef.

Draconic Humanoid: He's a bipedal alien dragon, which comes with the expected wing-provided Flight, draconic Super-Strength, and fiery Breath Weapon.
Heel–Face Turn: He started out menacing Iron Man and various other heroes, but eventually he re-evaluated his life and found a calling in being a Martial Pacifist with a preference for being a chef, alongside joining his former foes in heroism.
Kaiju: He originates from Marvel's old giant monster line of comics, and while he's already decently big as a regular big-fig, when he sizeshifts into an ultra-fig he really qualifies, being the size of an average house.
Sizeshifter: He can go from a big-fig to Kaiju-sized at will.

Forbush Man

Forbush Man / Irving Forbush

Badass Normal: This guy's got no powers or skills whatsoever, but he's just as capable of beating up baddies as any othe hero.
Brown Note: Just like his appearance in Nextwave, removing his helmet generates a heavily damaging psychic pulse that forces others who see him yanking it off to experience debilititating waking nightmares.
Cheap Costume: His outfit is just some red long-johns with an "F" painted on the chest, a blue bedsheet tied around his neck as a cape, and a cooking pot with two eyeholes cut into it. Also, for some reason his version in this game wrapped some tin-foil around his right arm to replicate the look of an Artificial Limb.

Ghost Rider

Ghost Rider / Johnathon "Johnny" Blaze

Badass Biker: Johnny Blaze was already pretty skilled at bike-riding, but becoming Ghost Rider not only gave him hellish biker-themed powers, it also came with a major Cool Bike... except his bike has gotten a little bit, well, destroyed, and he's looking for a replacement. He also gets increasingly angry about being forced to walk around to get the bike, since being Ghost Rider has made him used to not using his legs for getting around.
Breath Weapon: He can exhale Hellfire from his mouth for causing continuous damage and melting gold objects.
Chained by Fashion: Alongside his combat chain, he has another regular chain wrapped around his torso just for the aesthetic.
Chain Pain: He utilizes his Hellfire imbued Variable-Length Chain for both melee-attacking and grapple-pulling.
Cool Bike: Part and parcel of being Ghost Rider is having a sweet, sick ride coated in flames (the one you had to unlock with a Challenge before you could do his quest). After his old one was smashed by a rival biker gang, he asks the player to help him find a new one to replace it. The player eventually finds him a replacement fire-coated bike... just not a motorbike.
Dark Is Not Evil: His outfit is completely black and Chained by Fashion, he has a Flaming Skull for a Head, and his powerset heavily revolves around using Hellfire, but Johnny is a completely heroic guy who only targets genuine bad guys. Doesn't stop him from still being a Horrifying Hero that scares away civilians just by trying to talk to them, though.
Flaming Skulls: His Skull for a Head is constantly ablaze. He also throws flaming regular skulls as his ranged attack.
Horrifying Hero: His efforts to find a new bike and resume being a hero have been kinda hampered by the fact his demonic flaming Skull for a Head scares everybody away before he can ask them if they've seen one, requiring him to ask the more trustworthy-looking player to question people in his stead.

Gwenpool

Gwenpool / Gwendolyn "Gwen" Poole

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_154826_youtube.jpg

"I'm my own mini-fig!"

Longtime Marvel fan sucked into her idol reality and has a greater degree of awareness than Deadpool. Hello world!

Action Girl: This major Genki Girl can kick plenty of butt once you unlock her.
Ascended Fangirl: She's living her ultimate dream of joining her personal heroes in fighting evil.
Badass Biker: Has a image of her riding a bike as her desktop background and has the same image on display at Chrono-Con. You can even get it as a vehicle.
Breaking the Fourth Wall: Constantly talks about both being in a video game and her LEGO status, to a Deadpool degree.
Oooh, this is new, I'm not in a comic book anymore! Check me out, square feet, stud head, unusual thumbs... I'm my own minifig!
The Bus Came Back: A rather unexpected new video-game appearance given that her comic was cancelled.
The Cameo: Parodied In-Universe: Gwenpool cameos in several of her Gwenpool Missions, such as playing the announcers 'Gwenpool' and 'Gwenpool' at the HYDRA parade and comparing her bonus role in Squirrel Girl's GM to "Gwenception".
Character Catchphrase: Introduces Gwenpool missions with "Gwenpool's disembodied voice here!"
Distaff Counterpart: Played straight but Subverted, as she didn't intend her persona to be a female parallel to Deadpool.
Dual Wielding: She does this from every angle due to having both two swords and two guns: her normal stance is going Sword and Gun, when melee-fighting or performing a Ground Pound she uses both swords, and her targeted attack goes Guns Akimbo.
Fourth-Wall Observer: Is as fourth-wall-aware as Deadpool. It helps that she's been on both sides of it.
Hyperspace Mallet: As part of her ability to use mediums to her advantage, she draws on the cartoonishly comedic nature of LEGO games to pull out a comically large mallet for smashing cracked walls she couldn't normally.
No Fourth Wall: Constantly refers to her position in a LEGO game.
Pink Is Feminine: What distinguishes her from Deadpool is having a pink-and-white color palette in contrast to his red-and-black.
Reckless Gun Usage: Her "dance" ability has her randomly fire her gun. (or more if the player spams the primary attack button)
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: She acts as one for Deadpool, in narrating the bonus missions and being the Fourth-Wall Observer. Unsurprisingly, she asks what happened to Deadpool without explicitly referring to him.
Trash of the Titans: Her room is full of scattered comics, misplaced furniture and roadblocks.

Hellcow

Bessie the Hellcow

A formerly normal cow who became the victim of a starvingly desperate Dracula in the 1600's, Hellcow searched for centuries for her "killer" before eventually arriving in modern day America.

Flying Brick: She's capable of Flight by shapeshifting large bat wings, combines her natural bovine strength with vampiric physical enhancements to gain Super-Strength, though her still having the body-structure of a normal cow means she can't rip off strength handles, and a regular part of the vampirism pachage is a potent Healing Factor.
Intelligible Unintelligible: She only speaks in moos, something the player can't comprehend but Blade is somehow able to translate.
Odd Friendship: She somehow became a close companion of Blade as a heroic duo, despite how the Dhampyr normally really despises any and all forms of regular undead.
Our Vampires Are Different: Being turned by Dracula himself, she not only has Immortality and a Healing Factor, but also Voluntary Shapeshifting that lets her grow bat wings for flight or turn into mist to slip though vents. There's also the fact that she's a vampire cow.
Regenerating Health: Being a vampire, she naturally has a strong Healing Factor for restoring lost health.

Hit-Monkey

Anti-Hero: His fighting methods involve killing people and Combat Pragmatism, but he only targets monstrous scum like those that slaughtered his entire tribe just because they harbored an assassin.
Badass in a Nice Suit: Complimenting his badassery and professional hit-man image, he wears a snazzy black suit tailored to fit his body.
Beware the Silly Ones: His status as an unintelligible monkey wearing a suit causes most people to underestimate him, but this monkey has been trained in the arts of assassination, so by the time his enemies realize how dangerous he is, it's too late and he's already got them.
Guns Akimbo: He wields two guns as his chosen weaponry.
The Unintelligible: Eek! Fortunately, Gwenpool's around to translate at the start of his quest.

Howard the Duck

Howard the Duck / Howard Duckson

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_880.jpg

Ascended Extra: In contrast to the prequel, Howard is more prominent in this game to the point of being playable in two Gwenpool missions.
Badass in a Nice Suit: This Barefoot Cartoon Animal has a snazzy red suit as his choice of attire, and one would Beware the Silly Ones, as this duck is a capable private investigator and skilled fighter
BFG: He wields his aptly named weapon the BFG in base-form, which is capable of firing high-powered rockets for demolishing silver objects.
Bunny-Ears Lawyer: He's both incredibly self-serving and a major jerk to most people, but he's still a highly capable and intelligent private investigator who has been trained in the ways of Quack-Fu, which makes him a very competent fighter.
Fourth-Wall Observer: He complains about his very minor role in the LEGO Marvel series, as well as admitting to his uncertainty of whether both of the previous games were "strictly canon".
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He's generally self-serving, rather standoffish to the people he considers friends, and willing to engage in some legally questionable shenanigens, but when the chips are down he's both a genuine hero and willing to lend aid to his companions.
Instrument of Murder: He carries around a personal guitar, which alongside playing it can be used to either perform a glass-shattering epic solo or slammed into the ground for a musical Shockwave Stomp.
Powered Armor: He's capable of donning his Iron Duck suit inspired by Tony Stark, which gives him the same Hand Blasts, heat beams, and explosive bolts as Iron Man, though being less sophisticated technologically, he lacks true Flight, only able to jump In a Single Bound with Spring Coil boots.
Token Adult: To Kamala and Miles in the last Gwenpool mission, given that the two are teenage heroes.

Hulkling and Wiccan

Hulkling and Wiccan / Theodore "Ted" Altman & William "Billy" Kaplan

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/psx_20190628_130142.jpg

Flying Brick: Being a Kree-Skrull hybrid who models himself after his personal hero Hulk, Hulking is a lesser example, as he has major Super-Strength, is able to sprout wings for Flight, and can No-Sell toxins, but he lacks a Healing Factor or Super-Toughness to fully complete the "brick" part.
Future Badass: Wiccan will one day become the Demiurge, capable of rewriting the laws of multiple realities both forward and backward, and has momentarily done so previously. No biggie.
Kung-Fu Wizard: Wiccan is a borderline case of The Archmage, being comparable in terms of magical prowess to Sorceror Supreme Doctor Strange. Also like the good doctor, he complements his magic with decent hand-to-hand skills so that he's not defenseless without his spells.
Non-Indicative Name: Hulkling is not a Hulk of any kind - he's a Kree-Skrull hybrid who is inspired by the Hulk for both his image and chosen powerset.
Those Two Guys: They're always together to comment on various things, which is understandable, since they are a couple.
The Voiceless: When played as, neither of them utters anything beyond Voice Grunting.

The Living Mummy

The Living Mummy / N'Kantu

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_163901_youtube.jpg

Face of a Thug: He has the body of a bandage-covered walking corpse, alongside possessing terrifyingly glowing red eyes, but his mummification was due to defying the enslavement of his people by a cruely ruling Egyptian class, and once brought to his senses in modern times he's nothing but helpful and heroic.
Go Mad from the Isolation: Just like in his comics origin, he spent 3,000 years trapped in his coffin both fully aware of his imprisonment and unable to free himself, so when he's finally freed he attacks the first people he sees (in this case the Avengers and allies) due to having gone crazy. Following getting some sense literally beaten into him he becomes an ally of the heroes and tries to act as a hero himself.
Horrifying Hero: His efforts to be a hero in modern day hit a bit of a snag due to being a monstrous walking corpse, with every person he saves running away screaming, much to his displeasure.
King Mook: His boss-fight puts him as one for the various other mummies in the game, including the minifig regular mummies and the bigfig mummy bodygaurds, with the latter also unlockable for playing as.
Mummy Wrap: Being that he's coated in mummy bandages, he's capable of using them to latch onto and pull grapple points. He can also shoot torn wads of bandages as projectiles.
No-Sell: Being a magically turned living corpse, N'Kantu is impervious to toxins.
Power Crystal: He possesses the mystical Orb of Ra, which grants him command over its magical sun powers. In his boss fight he uses it to act as a Barrier Warrior, while when played as he produces gold-melting solar beams and generates an energy-based Shockwave Stomp.
Zombie Gait: Being inspired by classic movie mummies, even when running he holds his arms in front of him while having his torso and head lean limply.

Man-Thing

Man-Thing / Theodore "Ted" Sallis

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_1281.jpg

Adaptational Intelligence: While in both the comics and canon story Man-Thing is an Empty Shell who only acts in response to sensing emotion, the comedic nature of a Gwenpool mission means in "Spook-Tacular Parade Saga" he's mentally capable of being friends and having fun with Morbius and The Living Mummy, if still being The Speechless due to lacking a form of vocal chords.
Cthulhumanoid: As usual for this plant-and-mud-based fear-preying Humanoid Abomination, he of course has his iconic root-tentacles draped over his "face".
Combat Tentacles: Being partially composed on swamp vines, he can sprout or pull out of the ground massive vine tentacles for either air-based slamming Shockwave Stomp or a land-based Charged Attack that involves a stretch-assisted Ground Punch.
Hero Antagonist: As guardian of the Nexus of All Realities, alongside being an Empty Shell who fights against all sources of aggression regardless of intent, even other heroes might receive his retribution if there ends up being a misunderstanding. As such, when Team Thor comes to his swamp thinking he might be currently an enemy, he responds to their aggression with a fight.
The Juggernaut: Through his power combination of a Healing Factor, Feel No Pain, and Super-Strength, he's able to plow through foes and obstacles with ease, especially once he enters a Foe-Tossing Charge.
Red Eyes, Take Warning: The only thing that isn't green mud or plants to his body is his vibrantly glowing red eyes, and he's very much not one to be trifled with unleash you're up for facing the consequences.
Swamp Monster: Still the same Muck Monster composed from a mixture of swamp mud and vegetation as he usually is in the comics.
The Voiceless: Though unlike most of the other characters, there is an explanation this time; Swampy has no vocal chords, and even if he did, no mind to articulate his thoughts.

Moon Knight

Moon Knight / Marc Spector

Improbable Weapon User: His ranged attack involves throwing crescent-shaped shuriken he calls "crescent darts".
Lunacy: Being the Moon Knight, his physical abilities are boosted during the night, with the enhancements getting stronger the close it is to a full moon. However, due to the game never going through nightfall thanks to Kang's temporal shenanigens, he can't exhibit any boosted power, so he Fights Like a Normal here instead.
Not Quite Flight: His cape allows him to glide short distances.
Telescoping Staff: His melee weapon is a collapsible truncheon that also has a Grappling-Hook Pistol function.

Morbius the Living Vampire

Morbius the Living Vampire / Michael Morbius

Bait-and-Switch Comment: After freeing him, he announces his hunger... before asking you if you've seen a burger stand anywhere nearby.
Dark Is Not Evil: He has an Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette complexion, wears an outfit that just screams Red and Black and Evil All Over, combines Black Eyes of Crazy with Red Eyes, Take Warning, and of course possesses monstrous bat-like fangs. Despite all of that, he's firmly on the side of heroes, though due to his Horror Hunger he often lapses into eating people until restrained and fed enough.
Face of a Thug: Even though he's currently in a calm phase with his Horror Hunger, he still has the appearance of a horrific vampire, so acting as a hero or even just peacefully having a break with his fellow monsters still results in fleeing and screaming civilians.
Flying Brick: His vampiric transformation granted him Flight, Super-Strength, and a Healing Factor.
Genius Bruiser: Both before and after his transformation, Morbius was and still is a brilliant scientist, so as a vampire he combines his high intellect with superhuman strength.
Lightning Bruiser: What he lacks in ranged attacks, he makes up for with enhanced strength, agility, and speed, and his Healing Factor means getting hit won't slow him down in the slightest.
Mind Control: While he lacks the ability in other adaptations, his appearance here heavily embracing the "vampire" image means he also possesses the classic vampiric power of brainwashing others to do his bidding.
Wolverine Claws: The incredibly sharp and long nails he gained after becoming a vampire work well for digging and cutting vines.

Misty Knight

Misty Knight / Mercedes Knight

Afro Asskicker: Her bushy, voluminous afro is an iconic part of her identity, and she's consistently been a skilled and capable badass.
Artificial Limbs: Part of her identity is possessing a bionic arm, which provides enhanced strength and an assortment of technological powers.
Empowered Badass Normal: She was already a skilled, intelligent martial artist and capable ass-kicker before she lost her arm and got an Artificial Limb with Super-Strength and the ability to shoot freezing beams and electricity.
Freeze Ray: A built-in part of her bionic arm is being able to shoot cryonic blasts to freeze things and extinguish fires.
Shock and Awe: Her bionic arm can generate concentrated electricity for shocking Hand Blasts and beams.
Super-Strength: Her bionic arm heavily amplifies her punching power to measure up to bonafide supers, such as being able to smash cracked walls, though only having one enhanced arm means she lacks the leverage for ripping off green handles.

Odin

Odin Borson

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_151213_youtube.jpg

Blood Knight: If he gets into a fight with mooks, he'll remark how good it feels to actually get to fight once more.
Discard and Draw: Gungnir loses it's ability to shock foes and power generators from Marvel's Avengers, now only having the gold-melting heat beam, but in exchange Odin himself can utilize rune panels and engage in Teleportation.
Grumpy Old Man: He'll grumble if he receives a quest item.
Named Weapons: Naturally, being odin, he wields the specially named magical spear Gungnir.
Put on a Bus: By the time Team Thor make it to Asgard, Loki has already sent the real Odin on a wild goose chase and took his place. He's still playable though.
Regenerating Health: Part of the Asgardian package is continuous health recovery

Power Man

Power Man / Carl Lucas / Luke Cage

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_153822_youtube.jpg

Adaptational Badass: Luke Cage Noir was eventually revealed to be an Adaptational Wimp, where the two bullets to the chest he survived was because of a Pocket Protector. In this game, the Noir version is just as tough and strong as mainline Cage.
Afro Asskicker: Depicted with his 70s afro haircut, rather than the baldness modern day Cage has. Funky.
Alternate Self: His Luke Cage Noir version is avilable as a collectable unlockable, and is overall a Moveset Clone with cosmetic differences and a few extra abilities.
Berserk Button: Shares She-Hulk's hatred of being called "doll".
In a Single Bound: Luke has a charged jump which can cover some distance. He actually jumps higher and further than the freaking Hulk.
Moveset Clone: Luke Cage Noir has the same voice and animations as regular Cage, but his status as a detective means he does have the extra abilities of tracking and photo-mode, so he's not just an alternate skin.
Super-Strength: A secondary part of his powerset is having superhuman strength
Super-Toughness: His skin is unbreakable.

Red She-Hulk

Red She-Hulk / Elizabeth "Betty" Ross

BFS: Unlike She-Hulk, Betty attacks foes with a sword almost as big as she is, the Savage Sword of She-Hulk.
In a Single Bound: Like other Hulks, she has a charged jump that sends her high up into the air.

Sif

Lady Sif

Foe-Tossing Charge: By combining her Asgardian strength with her tough shield, her Charged Attack allows her to plow though enemies and objects without stopping.
Knightly Sword and Shield: As usual, she wields a sword and shield set that emphasizes her just but ruthless mindset as a heroic warrior.
Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: Her Asgardian shield provides similar capabilities as Captain America's in negating attacks and deflecting beams, though it can't be thrown like his.
Quest Giver: Asks for help coaxing some nervous Asgardians away from a lava flow.

Squirrel Girl

Squirrel Girl / Doreen Green

Discard and Draw: She no longer has her "Squirrelbuster" mech from Marvel's Avengers, but she makes up for it with super strength and explosive acorns.
The Dreaded: One A.I.M. goon suggests giving up on seeing her. His coworkers ignore him.
Improbable Weapon User: She throws squirrels at her enemies.
Lethal Joke Character: While a bit more versatile than previous games, she's still not all that great for puzzle-solving or boss-killing, but also like said games she has her charged special that summons swarms of squirrels that create a nigh-impenetrable barrier around her while active and engulf every mook within a certain radius that insta-kills them once it's released, meaning she's still a hyper-effective horde-clearer.
Speaks Fluent Animal: A regular power of hers is talking to squirrels, and she usually has a fellow squirrel (like Monkey Joe or Tippy-Toe) acting as a sidekick only she understands.
Super-Strength: Doreen is endowed with squirrel strength, allowing her to tear apart green-handled doors. Her knuckles aren't tough enough to smash cracked walls, though.
Tail Slap: Her Ground Pound attack involes transferring the force and momentum into an extra-strong tail whipping.
Throw Down the Bomblet: Can throw explosive acorns to destroy silver objects.

Skaar

Adaptation Personality Change: He's... a little bit more child-like than his comic incarnation.
Barbarian Hero: He's got a boisterously childish attitude, a shirtless loin-cloth outfit, and Barbarian Longhair, but he's still a heroic guy.
BFS: He wields a sword that's decently big even compared to his Hulk-like body, with the blade about the length of his arm.
Horrible Judge of Character: Thinks the Maestro might not be all that bad, and that it probably isn't a big deal that he ran off on his own.
Shared Family Quirks: He may have a strained relationship with his dad, but he's pretty similar in attitude to him, such as shouting "Skaar Smash" when fighting and telling enemies You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry!
Strong and Skilled: He compliments his Hulk-like strength with skilled swordsmanship.
"Well Done, Son" Guy: It's implied his relationship with the Hulk is strained, given his reaction to the Maestro brushing him off is "yup, that's dad alright".
Willfully Weak: When a third wave of Mooks blocks his way to Maestro, he gets frustrated enough to exclaim to them not to push him into using the Old Powers, implying he's deliberately avoiding using his full strength because of how destructive to his surroundings that can be.

Songbird

Songbird / Melissa Gold

Barrier Warrior: One way she can manipulate sound is to generate a literal sound barrier for defense and beam deflecting.
Make Some Noise: Her main powerset involves manipulating soundwaves, such as shooting sonic Hand Blasts, letting out a glass-shattering screech, or performing vibrating punches to smash cracked walls.
Winged Humanoid: Part of her powerset is possessing a pair of purple spectral bird wings that provide Flight

Stan Lee

Stan Lee / Stanley Lieber

Voiced by: Stan Lee

The Marvel universe's "greatest hero".

Badass Boast: Tells a group of mooks this:
Stan Lee: You're not going to be in mint condition after this!
Butt-Monkey: Is constantly in trouble and is even mistaken for a very lifelike animatronic as Chrono-con.
Creator Cameo: As usual, he makes a guest appearance in something using Marvel characters. Excelsior!
Cool Old Guy: He's still perfectly able to kick ass.
Demoted to Extra: Downplayed with him, since while he retains his role as the citizen in peril to rescue and as a playable character, he doesn't appear in story mode cutscenes as frequently as the first two games.
Distressed Dude: Has to be saved 50 times.
Fourth-Wall Observer: As per norm, he talks about the fact he's in a video game often, especially right after being rescued and wondering when you'll unlock him.
God: If by any implication In-Universe, he's likely the literal god of this game's multi-verse.
Marty Stu: In-Universe and Played for Laughs: Stan Lee's trading card deliberately praises him as one of the mightiest and greatest heroes of all time, but still mentions that he "occasionally bites off more than he can chew", providing a Hand Wave to his Peril status.

Valkyrie

Valkyrie / Brunnhilde

Composite Character: Her overall appearance is based on the MCU version, but her character bio is based on the comics.
Facial Markings: Like her movie self, she has notable white chain-like markings around her eyes.
Sleeves Are for Wimps: Just like Thor, her mostly clothed appearance is completely lacking sleeves, representing her Asgardian toughness.
Tomboyish Ponytail: Being physically based on the more masculine and rough movie version, she ties her long hair in a ponytail to keep it out of the way when fighting with her sword.

DLC Heroes

Original Guardians of the Galaxy

Aleta Ogord

Adaptational Modesty: Her outfit lacks the Navel-Deep Neckline it has in the comics.
Human Aliens: Aleta isn't human. Her species just lacks any kind of rubber foreheaded-ness.
Mind over Matter: She is capable of manipulating objects with her mind.

Charlie- 27

Charlie-27

Artistic License – Space: He was apparently adapted to live on Jupiter, but how he was supposed to live on a planet with no solid surface when he can't fly is anyone's guess.
BFG: Carries a large gun that shoots Frickin' Laser Beams.
The Big Guy: Charlie's large size is represented by him being a big-fig.
In a Single Bound: Like the Hulks, Charlie is capable of jumping tremendous distances.
Stuff Blowing Up: Charlie can throw silver brick destroying bombs.

Major Victory

Major Victory / Vance Astrovik

Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: He wields Captain America's shield, and can use it the same way as every other Captain America in the game.
Mind over Matter: Uses his mutant powers of telekinesis.

Martinex

Martinex T'Naga

Hand Blast: Both of his blast powers are used through his hands.
An Ice Person: He can shoot freeze beams from one hand.
No-Sell: He's Immune to Fire as Required Secondary Powers of his heat beam, while he's immune to toxic gas but not goo because of his alien biology.
Playing with Fire: His other hand can shoot fire.

Nikki Gold

Nicholette "Nikki" Gold

Flaming Hair: What looks like hair is actually heat venting from her body in the shape of hair.
The Gunslinger: Her primary means of combat is wielding a futuristic pistol with high skill.
Playing with Fire: Can shoot beams of fire from her forehead.
Wrestler in All of Us: Her finishing move has her grapple the enemy and throw them away.

Starhawk

Starhawk / Stakar Ogord

Alternate Self: He has two versions of himself available in different DLC packs, with the one called Starhawk being his classic Guardians self when he was Sharing a Body with his sister Aleta, while the one that just uses his regular name is a Ravager from the MCU.
BFG: His Ravager version has a secondary gun that's both much bigger than his regular pistol and shoots explosively heated energy.
Flying Brick: His classic version possesses powers of Flight, Super-Strength, and minor Super-Toughness.
Hand Blast: His classic version is able to shoot blasts and beams of super-hot energy.

Yondu (Classic)

Yondu (Classic) / Yondu Yudanta

Amazing Technicolor Population: Like all Alpha Centaurians, his skin is blue.
One-Steve Limit: He's not the same being as the other Yondu, he's the guy's descendant.
Rubber-Forehead Aliens: Looks like a blue human with a giant fin on his head, and pointy ears.
Trick Arrow: As the original (by publication history) Yondu, he of course has the inherent ability to mentally command his bow-shot arrows by whistling.

Champions

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur / Lunella Lafayette & Devil

All Animals Are Dogs: Devil Dinosaur's idle animations show very dog-like behavior.
Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: Befitting his title of Devil Dinosaur, he's a T-Rex with a Big Red Devil color scheme and aesthetic.
Kid Hero: Moon Girl's a little squirt with the attitude of one who is still capable of engaging in heroism.
Legacy Character: Moon Girl is the second companion of Devil Dinosaur after Moon Boy, though the two aren't directly linked in any way.
Rule of Cool: There's not really much reason to have a red T. rex act as a hero besides the coolness factor of a red T. rex acting as a hero.
Super-Scream: Devil Dinosaur's roar can be used as a Glass-Shattering Sound (though his gargantuan size can make it difficult to aim).

Nova

Nova / Samuel "Sam" Alexander

Adaptational Superpower Change: He's a Gravity Master in the comics, could control cosmic energy in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 1, and uses blue thermal beams here.
Costume Evolution: He wore a yellow helmet similar to Richard Rider's or the one he wore in the first two seasons of Ultimate Spider-Man (2012) in the first game, but here he wears a black helmet like his comics counterpart.
Demoted to Extra: Well, even more extra. He was already an extra in the first game, but here he's a DLC character.
Kid Hero: He's a young sport who nonetheless does his part for the forces of good.
Playing with Fire: He can shoot blue thermal lasers.

Viv Vision

Vivian "Viv" Vision

Amazing Technicolor Population: She has pink skin. Actual pink, not human pink.
Kid Hero: While looking the same age as her fellow Champions, roughly young adulthood, she's much, much younger chronologically, being less than five years old.
Ridiculously Human Robot: Well, synthezoid (a robot made in the exact likeness of a human being, organs and all, just made of machine parts), but the point stands. She even has hair.

Wasp II

Wasp II / Nadia Pym

Kid Hero: She's the second Wasp after Janet and still very young.
Legacy Character: To Janet Van Dyne, the first Wasp.

Agents of Atlas

The Agents of Atlas in General

Agents of Atlas

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Namora and 3-D Man are absent.

Jimmy Woo

James "Jimmy" Woo

Badass Normal: He's the only Agent of Atlas with no powers whatsoever, but his physical skills and smarts make him good enough to lead the genuine supers.

Gorilla-Man

Gorilla-Man / Kenneth "Ken" Hale

Killer Gorilla: He's a giant gorilla, and while he might be on the heroes' side, that doesn't make him any less of a fighter.

M- 11

M-11 / Human Robot

Cyber Cyclops: He can even shoot beams out of his visor like a certain other "Cyclops" created by Marvel.
Shock and Awe: He has electricity-based attacks.

Uranian

Uranian / Robert Grayson

Flight: He grew up on a planet with no solid surface, so it's only natural that he can fly.
Playing with Fire: He can shoot heat-based beams.

Venus

Our Sirens Are Different: She's a siren who used her enthralling singing to lead people to their deaths, but she eventually turned a new leaf following her status as The Soulless being fixed and uses her powers of persuasion for good.

The Runaways

The Runaways in General

Runaways

Antagonistic Off Spring: A heroic example, with them doing their best to stop their evil parents schemes and avoid turning out like them.
Kid Hero: Well, teenagers, but they're still youngsters fighting evil.

Alex Wilder

Badass Normal: He has no superpowers, but his incredible intellect has been a major aid in supporting the Runaways' efforts.

Chase Stein

Badass Normal: Like Alex he doesn't have any superpowers at least by this point in their story, but he manages to keep up with everybody through skillful use of his Power Fists.
Power Fist: Every one of his abilities, up to and including Flight, are granted by the oversized gauntlets he wears.

Gert Yorks

Gertrude "Gert" Yorks

The Kid with the Remote Control: Her psychic link with Old Lace is why the dinosaur acts to help the group.

Karolina Dean

Flying Firepower: Her Majesdanian genes allow her to fly and shoot beams of solar light from her hands.

Nico Minoru

Adaptational Superpower Change: As a consequence of LEGO games requiring conistency in skillsets, she doesn't have the sheer variety of magical power granted by her staff in the comics, but her skillset is on par with The Archmage that is Doctor Strange.

Molly Hayes

Super-Strong Child: She the smallest and most youthful of the Runaways, but her mutant gene has granted her Super-Strength comparable to Asgardians or even the Hulk.

Old Lace

Raptor Attack: As lampshaded by Gwenpool, she looks a lot like the sterotypical velociraptor from Jurassic Park, but is properly classified as a Deinonychus.

Villains

Kang

Kang the Conqueror / Nathaniel Richards

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_155417_youtube.jpg

"I am Kang the Conqueror! Conquering is what I do, and I intend to do it!"

Voiced by: Peter Serafinowicz

The Big Bad of the game. Has just finished rampaging and conquering the realms he deems the greatest and sent them to his personal arena Chronopolis.

Ain't Too Proud to Beg: For all his bluster of superiority, it eventually turns out he's not above begging when he's finally cornered, such as when Ravonna grabs his crystal and has the chance to use it on him.
Ascended Extra: From DLC exclusive character to the main villain of the piece.
Berserk Button: Never, EVER, suggest Kang go with the peaceful option, unless you want him to get aggressively shouty and nearly violent.
Kang: I AM KANG THE CONQUEROR!!! CONQUERING IS WHAT I DO!!!
BFG: Pulls a Wave-Motion Gun out of a portal to melt gold LEGO objects.
Big Bad: Every bad event in the story is caused either directly or indirectly by his creation of Chronopolis.
Blatant Lies: His suggestions box is not a vast chasm of doom, it's actually a super-complex system. Yeah.
Blood Knight: Mashed a bunch of civilisations together with dangerous ones just for the express purpose of finding someone worthy enough to fight him. He ends up challenging Captain America.
Composite Character: Due to the game being a mash-up of Kang War and 2015's Secret Wars, he's got a few traits of Doctor Doom, namely the making bits of various worlds into an Egopolis.
Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Zig-zagged with his relationship to Ravonna, as while he is decently affectionate as well as heartbroken after finding out she was working with the Avengers behind his back, he behaves more like she's a beloved pet he owns rather than a thinking person.
Evil Brit: Peter Serafinowicz brings his usual shmarmy and condescending exaggerated British voice to the role of Kang, really highlighting his Faux Affably Evil attitude.
Evil Is Petty: One Kangnouncement is him calling up whoever beat his high score in a video game to say he hates them. Another is telling anyone listening to attack the Avengers, or at least throw something heavy at them.
Faux Affably Evil: He generally acts quite charming and spouts plenty of superficially friendly dialogue, but not only does he make it clear how everything he does is to satisfy his Blood Knight interests, whenever anything doesn't go how he planned it to, his mask slips to show a little of the aggressive monster underneath.
Fountain of Youth: After Ravonna grabs his time-altering crystal, she can't bring herself to destroy him for all the atrocities he's done since she really does love him. He ends up getting turned into an infant because the former decided to Take a Third Option.
Heel–Face Turn: An elderly version of him is seen riding with Ravonna (now Terminatrix) presumably to assist her in stopping whoever else is manipulating the timeline.
Is This Thing Still On?: Sometimes, a Kang-nouncement is actually him talking to Ravonna like a married couple. He then realises his mic is still on.
Large Ham: Well, what do you call someone who constantly boasts about himself to his entire make-shift kingdom, including at one point trying to make up a national anthem of his own (the lyrics of which consist entirely of "Kang", by the by)?
Lighter and Softer: Thanks to the game's family friendly nature, he's much less monstrous than in the storyline he's based on (no nuking Washington, for one, or the whole plotline with his son Marcus), and slightly goofy.
Must Have Caffeine: Kang's frequently seen sipping from coffee while watching stuff from his tower.
Pet the Dog: Subverted. He hid a special golden ticket in a Kang-bar which allows whoever finds it to visit his citadel... and also drafts them into his army, free of charge.
Reality Warper: As if how he created Chronopolis in a very short timespan and his time-manipulating abilities wasn't obvious enough.
Save Scumming: Abuses this In-Universe to make Ravonna praise him twice and allow Eson the Searcher to attack twice in one go by rewinding time per attack. He attempts to do this one last time by rewriting the timeline so the Avengers never defeat him. Luckily, Ravonna stops him.
Secondary Color Nemesis: Green and purple clothes.
Terms of Endangerment: Kang regularly refers to Ravonna with a variety of military and combat themed Affectionate Nicknames, like "my little siege tower" or "my retaliatory strike". This is actually a sign of Kang's true possessive feelings towards Ravonna; as a time-travelling warmonger, weapons and tactics aren't things he truly cares about, just tools he uses to get what he really wants in the end.
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes? One of his Kang-nouncements is his asking anyone if they've seen Ravonna because he wants her to get rid of a bee in his room. It repeatedly goes in and out until it finally leaves.

Kang's Ultimate Minion (Unmarked Spoilers)

Korvac / Michael Korvac

Adaptational Wimp: This Korvac is much less dangerous than most versions, who are at Physical God level, capable of killing the Avengers with ease. Here, he can be beaten up by Star-Lord.
Evil Sounds Deep: He's got a deep, booming voice.
Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: He just randomly appears in the penultimate level to attack the heroes on Kang's command.
Purple Is Powerful: He glows bright purple, and he is immensely powerful.
Redemption Promotion: As a boss, he's tough with heavily damaging attacks but beatable. As a playable character, he's Nigh-Invulnerable, has a Healing Factor on top of that, and possesses Combo Platter Powers, all of which makes one wonder how his boss version wasn't an unstoppable Physical God, beyond the out-of-universe explanation that bosses need to be beatable for gameplay reasons.
Retcon: In Marvel's Avengers, Korvac was bright orange. Here, he's more like his comic self's purple glow.
Walking Shirtless Scene: He's not wearing any clothes (well, he's hopefully wearing underwear, but being a minifigure makes that hard to determine).
Walking Spoiler: While Korvac's general presence in the game isn't spoilery due to being in the previous game as well, his role in the plot very much is due to being a Giant Space Flea from Nowhere for the penultimate level.

Primary Avengers Villains

Amora the Enchantress

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_161650_youtube.jpg

Voiced by: Kate O'Sullivan

Color Coded Magic: All of her magic spells have a green aura.
Evil Counterpart: Gameplay-wise, to Doctor Strange, having nearly all his moves.
Flight: Accomplished via her magic.
Manchild: If she grabs a golden brick or artefact, she'll start saying it's "mine, mine, mine, mine".
Regenerating Health: Her magical prowess grants her the ability to rapidly and constantly restore her health.
The Smurfette Principle: She's the only female super villain in the main story.
Time Master: She can rewind or fast forward time.
Vain Sorceress: She views herself as the most beautiful woman in existence, and is desperate to utilize any magic she can to maintain that beauty whenever it is threatened.

Arnim Zola

Evil Genius: As usual he's a highly calculating and intelligent man, especially as president of the Hydra Empire, and also like usual he's not great in a direct fight, preferring to seclude himself away from combat to mastermind plots and direct the masses while more fight-capable Hydra agents take on the heroes.
No-Sell: He has a very downplayed case, as him being Brain Uploaded into a robot body makes him immune to toxic gas, but that body wasn't built sturdy enough to ignore corrosive toxic sludge or fire.
President Evil: He's the president of the Hydra Empire world, and he rules the place with a dictatorial iron fist.

Baron Zemo

Baron Zemo / Helmut Zemo

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_163652_youtube.jpg

Ace Pilot: He's highly skilled at plane-flying, and fittingly the battle against him is even a dogfight.
It's All About Me: He constantly reminds everyone about his alleged superiority.
Truer to the Text: Similar to the Mandarin in the first one, the game rejects the In Name Only version from the recent movies in favor of a more comic-accurate depiction (or at least accurate to Helmut's pre-Thunderbolts characterization).
Weapons That Suck: Also carries gravity mines.

Dormammu

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_1_881.jpg

Voiced by: Gary Martin

Dimension Lord: Lord of the Dark Dimension.
Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Or at the least, Evil Has Someone They Like. Occasionally on acquiring a collectible, Dormammu idly suggests giving it to Satanna as a gift.
Flying Brick: He's nigh-invulnerable, super strong, and can fly.
Physical God: As a Dimension Lord with power so great it can influence other realms, Dormammu is a god-like existence, making him not just Nigh-Invulnerable to all forms of harm, but also possessing Super-Strength beyond even the angriest Hulk and magical prowess that matches and possibly surpasses Doctor Strange, with the sole fault being his lack of Time Master powers due to existing in a Place Beyond Time.
Purple Is the New Black: Unlike the previous LEGO Marvel games where his suit was as black as his face like in the comics, here it's been turned into a dark purple. Actually fits pretty well due to emphasizing his flaming black head and bringing to mind Purple Is Powerful in relation to his Physical God status.
Sizeshifter: The playable Dormammu starts off as a regular-sized minifig, and can grow larger to match his size during Mordo's boss fight.

Erik Killmonger

Voiced by: Damian Lynch

The Beastmaster: During his boss fight he can call upon a leopard to attack the player.
Bait-and-Switch Comment: One Boss Banter comment has him question if the player understands what his name means and the clout it carries, but instead of meaning Killmonger, he means how "Erik" means "ruler" and as such he is destined to be Wakanda's king.
Gonna Need More X: On being beaten, he laments he should've brought more cats to the fight.
Poisonous Person: One of his boss moves is standing on his spear and releasing a cloud of poisonous gas that causes continuous damage. He also possesses a poison dart gun for ranged attacking when played as.
Weapon-Based Characterization: Unlike the movies and comics where he focuses more on guns, in this game he focuses mainly on wielding a spear while having a dart gun for backup, signifying how he shares most of the tribal attitude of his Wakanda foes but is not against employing modernistic Combat Pragmatism when he sees necessary.

Hela

Voiced by: Kate Kennedy

Adaptational Wimp: Physically, she's based on her Ragnarok incarnation, but where that version of her required Asgard to be destroyed to stop her, here she just needs beaten up same as everyone else.
Bilingual Bonus: Her last words on being defeated are "memento mori" - latin for "remember you will die".
Color Coded Magic: Her magical powers manifest with a Sickly Green Glow, and she definitely exemplifies Green and Mean as a kill-happy death-goddess.
Doppelgänger Attack: Most of her boss fight involves teleporting about while spawning magical copies of herself to fight the player.
Magic Knight: She has incredible magical prowess comparable to Doctor Strange in versatility and power, which she complements with well-trained swordsmanship.
Power Floats: She never walks anywhere, instead hovering just above the ground.
Teleportation: Her poss fight mostly involves warping around while her copies fight, and when played as she can travel between warp spots or perform a blink dash.
Touch of Death: If she gets the player character, she'll One-Hit Kill them, regardless of whether they're nigh-invulnerable or not. But then, she is the Goddess of Death.
The Voiceless: When played as, she never utters a word.

The Hydra Four

The HYDRA Four in general

Moveset Clone: Share abilities with the Avengers they're based on.
The Psycho Rangers: They're evil parallels to four of the Avengers.

Bowman (Hawkeye)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_163012_youtube_4.jpg

Improbable Aiming Skills: His archery skills are on par with Hawkeye with their ridiculousness.

Hammer (Thor)

Heel–Face Turn: With Militant, they help you fight HYDRA as revenge for mistreating them.
Shock and Awe: Has a technological hammer similar to Mjölnir that can also be charged with electricity.
Thunder Hammer Carries around a technological short-hammer designed after Mjolnir that not only can smash foes and cracked walls but he can also Summon to Hand and generate electricity.

Militant (Captain America)

Heel–Face Turn: As with Hammer.
Lame Comeback: Militant hasn't quite got the hang of snappy patter.
Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: Has a shield just like Captain America.

Tactical Force (Iron Man)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_163012_youtube.jpg

Powered Armor: Being an evil Iron Man, he wears a suit of similarly-designed mechanical armor with the same flight and blaster abilities, though with the Hydra symbol on his chest.

Karl Mordo

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_163439_youtube.jpg

Color Coded Magic: Where the aura of Strange's magic is gold, Mordo has blood-red.
Composite Character: Has the look and attributes of his film version, while having the personality of his comic counterpart.
Evil Counterpart: To Doctor Strange, right down to having most of the same abilities (he lacks Strange's time manipulating abilities).
Smug Snake: Mordo is very assured of his superiority.

Klaw

Klaw / Ulysses Klaue

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_163044_youtube.jpg

A sound-based weaponry user who killed T'Challa's father to obtain more vibranium.

Amoral Afrikaner: As per the MCU films, Klaw is a South African.
Composite Character: He has the appearance, abilities, and history with T'Challa of the comics version, while having a South African accent like the film version.
Make Some Noise: As usual, he utilizes sound generation and manipulation for combat, such as shooting blasts of it, producing an intense Shockwave Stomp through a Ground Punch, and acting as a Barrier Warrior through a literal sound barrier.
Mundane Utility: Uses his weapon as a boombox.
Talking Is a Free Action: He stops the heroes at one point so he can fix his weapon to use a final attack. No one on Team Spider Man decides to take advantage of this. He even thanks them for their patience.
Villains Out Shopping: When Team Spidey finds him, he and Man-Ape are just jamming together.

Loki

Loki Laufeyson

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_151308_youtube.jpg

Adaptational Villainy: In Ragnarok, Loki sides with Thor (if only because the alternative is "painful death"). Here, he tries to flee at the first chance, then sets up shop in Egypt, where he continues to be an ass.
Demoted to Dragon: He was the Big Bad of the first Super Heroes. After his mishap with Galactus, Kang found him and recruited him.
Enemy Mine: He teams up with Team Thor to fight Surtur... then legs it the minute their backs are turned.
An Ice Person: As always, playable Loki can freeze folk or put out fires with the Casket of Ancient Winters.
Laser-Guided Karma: After causing trouble for everyone, he's beaten up and put to work fixing up Ancient Egypt, with Horus repeatedly bopping him over the head with a broom while he works.
Palette Swap: Unlocking Loki gives you both his classic and Thor: Ragnarok versions at once, and literally the only difference between them is Classic Loki wearing green and Ragnarok Loki wearing blue.
Psychic Powers: Even without the Mind Stone-embedded staff, Loki can still utilize Mind over Matter and Mind Control powers.
Teleportation: Loki can teleport short distances, or use teleporting panels.

Madame Hydra

Madame Hydra / Viper / Ophelia Sarkkissian

Affably Evil: As a result of becoming an Adaptational Nice Guy, while she's still the strict enforcer of dictatorial regime Hydra, she willingly accepts outside aid for her goals, is a Reasonable Authority Figure towards her underlings so long as they get results, and rewards those underlings for their successes.
Adaptational Nice Guy: She's still a loyal servant of the tyrannical Hydra, but here she's nowhere near the Jerkass with Ax-Crazy tendencies she is in the comics, being cordial with the player as her underling, deciding to give her army a day off after their successful campaign, and rewarding the player for rescuing her snakes.
Animal-Themed Superbeing: She heavily models herself after snakes, such as invoking a Green and Mean aesthetic, giving herself poisonous fangs, and at one point using the codename "Viper". Her unlock quest involves asking for help from a snake-themed online hire (which the player takes the place of with a custom character) to rescue Hydra's snake mascots.
Badass Normal: The only true "power" she has is the ability to No-Sell toxins by way of Acquired Poison Immunity (which doesn't outright qualify as "super" on its own in the Marvel universe), with her strength, intellect, and deadliness all coming from naturally honed skill.
No-Sell: Due to modifying her body to possess long, venom-filled snake fangs, she also modified herself to be immune to poisonous toxins.
Teleportation: She carries around a spacial warping device that lets her blink short distances and travel between portal spots..
Weapon Specialization: Still uses a bullwhip as her preferred weapon for both cracking at foes and latching onto grapple points.

Maestro

Maestro / Robert Bruce Banner

Evil Old Folks: He's an evil future version of the Hulk who's bald and has a beard, which makes him look extremly old.
Foe-Tossing Charge: In contrast to regular Hulk having a Shockwave Clap, Maestro utilizes Cap's old shock-resistance shield for an unstoppable charge.
Genius Bruiser: Being a Future Badass version of Hulk, he combines an enhanced version of Hulk's brawn with a cunningly smart brain even more potent than Banner's.
Hypocritical Humor: He very grumpily tries to avoid joining Skaar in a selfie, but when you play as him, it turns out he can still take selfies like when he used to be Hulk.
Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: Carries a damaged version of Captain America's shield around, though his immense sturdiness means he has no reason to use it for direct protection.
Made a Slave: He wound up in the Sakaar arena as one of the unwilling combatants.
Precision-Guided Boomerang: Possessing Captain America's shield allows him to both hit distant targets and activate shield switches before the shield returns back to his hand.

Man-Ape

Man-Ape / M'Baku

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_162853_youtube.jpg

Voiced by: Alexis Rodney

Evil Sounds Deep: His voice is a low, grumbling baritone that highlights his aggressive and antagonistic nature.
Impossibly Graceful Giant: He rolls around the battlefield surprisingly fast for someone so large.
Killer Gorilla: Taking influence from the comics, most of his appearance is that of an albino gorilla with Red Eyes, Take Warning, which grants him both the strength and occasional Furry Reminder of a genuine gorilla.
No Indoor Voice: He's a lot less soft-spoken than T'Challa.
Sore Loser: He punches a Vibranium robot off a platform for beating him in a dance-off.

The Red King

The Red King / Angmo-Asan II

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_162708_youtube.jpg

Amazing Technicolor Population: His skin is bright red.
BFS: His weapon is a large cleaver-sword with a blade longer than he is tall, and which he can only possibly wield due to his strong Mini-Mecha.
Bling of War: Goes into battle in a large golden armor.
Combat Pragmatist: He cares nothing for the honor of combat, even if he hypocritically enforces it, so when he personally fights, he's a Cowardly Boss that hides in a barrier while sending in minions to fight for him.
Humiliation Conga: Beaten up by the heroes and crushed. All things considered, given he enslaved the Maestro, he got off pretty lucky.
In Touch with His Feminine Side: He likes his appearance a lot and acts very fancy.
Mini-Mecha: When pushed to fight himself, he enters the arena in a Hulkbuster-like mecha that combines the mechanical capabilities of an Iron Man suit with the strength and toughness of a Hulk.
Smug Snake: He has a massive ego, thinking of himself as an unstoppable king and pretty hot stuff, but when he's left at the heroes mercy after they destroy his Mini-Mecha, he shows just how much of a wimp he really is.

Red Hulk

Red Hulk / Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross

Adaptational Villainy: Hews more to the Red Hulk's initial characterization in Hulk, being a needlessly antagonistic jerkwad who attacks people for no good reason.
Evil Counterpart: Out of his hatred for Hulk, General Ross eventually became a villainous red-skinned version of him.
Man on Fire: During his boss fight, he'll set himself on fire and rush the player character. When played as, he'll burst into flames when he hyper-jumps and readies his Shockwave Clap.
Throw Down the Bomblet: As General Ross he can toss grenades for destroying silver objects.

Red Skull

Red Skull / Johann Shmidt

Demoted to Extra: He plays no part in the storyline surrounding the area, unlike the previous two games where there was one level each with him acting as Arc Villain, only being a Optional Boss for the Hydra Empire hub.
Disproportionate Retribution: He tries to kill the heroes for breaking his statue, more than anything else.
Greater-Scope Villain: He's the true Overlord of Hydra Empire to whom Arnim Zola and the rest of Hydra answer to, but in the grand scheme of things he's been Demoted to Extra as an Optional Boss.
Powered Armor: He comes in his "Iron Skull" armor from Avengers Assemble.
Took a Level in Badass: He's more capable of fighting with his armor in this game.

Surtur

Surtur the Fire Giant

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_162552_youtube.jpg

Voiced by: Gary Martin

Adaptational Wimp: Surtur showing up in the comics usually means things are about to really suck for everyone. Here, he's done in via booz- er, broth.
BFS: Carries what would be one on anyone else. Since he's a Bigfig, it looks proportionately tiny.
Big Red Devil: Well, Big Red Fire Demon, really.
Disney Villain Death: Plummets back into the lava he emerged from. Jane knows it won't keep him down forever, and stays behind to wait for him to come back.
Enemy Summoner: He summons forces from Muspellheim to attack Team Thor.
Playing with Fire: What with being a fire demon and all.

Taskmaster

Taskmaster / Anthony "Tony" Masters

Bow and Sword in Accord: His primary weapon is a sword due to copying various swordsmen, but following facing Hawkeye several times and copying him, he also employs a bow and arrows for ranged combat
Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: He complements his sword-wielding with a shield for blocking attacks, though its not a Knightly Sword and Shield example due to him lacking the personality qualities.
Photographic Memory: Its part of his gimmick that he can perfectly memorize anything he's seen even once and recall it with perfect clarity, particularly applying it to Power Copying fighting styles and skills, but also memorization puzzles.
Power at a Price: In reference to his more modern version, utilizing his Photographic Memory causes him to forget non-combat related things, like his wife or the reason he even gave the player a quest in the first place.
Trick Arrow: Like Hawkeye, he also has access to explosive and sonic arrows.

Spider-Folk Villains

Black Cat

Black Cat / Felicia Hardy

Animal-Themed Superbeing: While she doesn't possess any specifically cat-related powers (at least not here, since she sometimes has them in the comics and other media), she embraces a cat-like image, possessing Wolverine Claws themed after feline ones, moving with cat-like flexibility and agility, and specifically relating to being a "black" cat by having an actual superpower that lets her will others to experience bad luck.
Dating Catwoman: She's had an on-again-off-again relationship with Spider-Man despite their frequent antagonism, even holding an Amicable Exes relationship regardless of where she stands on the Heel–Face Revolving Door.
Deadly Lunge: Being cat-themed, her targeted attack is dash-punching foes like a lunging cat.
Grappling-Hook Pistol: She has her grapple gun that lets her Building Swing and pull grapple points just like Spider-Man.
Heel–Face Revolving Door: She started a criminal, went straight for Spider-Man, then went back-and-forth between hero and villain over the years. Since her collectable unlockable nature means there's no way to know her current alignment, for the sake of category convenience we're treating her as being in one of her villain phases.
Wolverine Claws: She's got her retractable cat-claw gloves that let her enhance her Deadly Lunge attack, dig through earth piles, and cut vines.

Carnage

Carnage / Cletus Kasady

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_2_695.jpg

Ascended Extra: After being shown as a cameo in the story of the first game, Carnage gets a Gwenpool level where he's playable.
Ax-Crazy: Even in a Lighter and Softer story like this where he can't be murderously crazy, his No Indoor Voice and enthusiasm for evil still get across how he's violently insane.
Foil: To Venom. Both are sinister and insane, but Carnage is a Laughing Mad character while Venom is more serious and focused.
Lighter and Softer: He's less of a demented kill-monster than his comics incarnation, that's for sure. He's still insane and evil though.
No Indoor Voice: Unlike the vocally subdued Venom, Carnage doesn't speak any quieter than enthusiastically and crazily shouting.
Psychopathic Manchild: In the process of becoming Lighter and Softer, his Ax-Crazy mentality has gotten a childish tinge to it, such as espousing an Evil Is Petty attitude through things like proudly reminiscing about stealing candy from a baby, and saying everything with No Indoor Voice. So quite fittingly for the added childishness, one of his idle animations has him pull out a teddy bear to cuddle with then pull out a babby bottle to suck on.
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Works with Venom despite being annoyed with his serious attitude.

Carnom

Carnom / Venage / Venom & Carnage / Edward "Eddie" Brock & Cletus Kasady

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_162319_youtube.jpg

Body Horror: It's very apparent that the fusing process Goblin 2099 enacted on the duo was neither willing nor perfect, since not only is their symbiote flesh haphazardly merged, it's very apparent that their hosts have been merged as well, given how there's spine spikes jutting out of their back.
Canon Foreigner: While Fusion Dances involving symbiotes have happened a few times in the comics and other media, including cloned Venom and Carnage symbiote fusions, this game is the first time regular Venom and Carnage have ever been fused together.
Cursed with Awesome: Neither Venom or Carnage would ever accept being merged physically with any other symbiote, let alone each other, but the fusion massively boosts both their strength and shapeshifting powers far beyond what either could achieve separately.
Fusion Dance: This thing is a very unwilling fusion of Venom and Carnage.
One-Winged Angel: After beating them the first time, their fusion goes out of control and morphs them into a gargantuan monster, which Goblin 2099 dubs "Maximum Carnom". Sadly, unlike other big-figs that can Sizeshift into ultra-figs, the unwieldy and awkardly-built nature of this form means the playable Carnom can't transform into it.
Shapeshifter Weapon: Their shapeshifting capacity is strengthened enough by their fusion that they can transform their arms into weapons for enhanced attacking, such as an axe, which is an ability displayed by Carnage in the comics and other media but absent in both this game and the previous one, thanks to being a Moveset Clone of Venom.
What Have I Become?: Once the Nexus Fragment-induced brainwashing is broken, the duo make it extremely clear to Goblin 2099 that they very much despise what he did to them, before chasing after him to exact their revenge.

Doctor Octopus

Doctor Octopus / Otto Octavius

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200507_205131_youtube.jpg

Combat Tentacles: As usual, his mechanical tentacles provide exteneded reach for both fighting and attaching to grapple points.
Demoted to Extra: He's the last boss you face in the second level of the game, whereas in the first game, he has an entire level dedicated to him.
History Repeats: He is still fought in the 2nd level and taken away in the 3rd.
Humongous Mecha: He pilots a large machine designed after himself with extra-big Combat Tentacles to battle Spider-Man, Ms. Marvel, and White Tiger.

Electro

Electro / Maxwel "Max" Dillon

Demoted to Extra: While never super relevant in the first game, he still was part of the villain group during a bonus mission with his own voice, while here he's a collectible unlockable replaced in plot-relevance by Electro 2099 and a case of The Voiceless.
Flying Firepower: By electrifying the surrounding air he can propel himself through it at will alongside shooting Hand Blasts of electricity.
Shock and Awe: Being the original Electro, generating and manipulating electricity for fighting and generator-charging comes naturally to him.

Electro 2099

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_4_5.jpg

Shock and Awe: Par for the sourse with any Electro, he can produce electricity at will for attacking, barrier-creating, and generator charging.
Superior Successor: While Spidey makes note that he likes the personality of regular Electro better, in terms of powers and skill he's definitely an improvement, since unlike the original he can act as an electrical Barrier Warrior, and him being an android gives him both Super-Intelligence and the ability to No-Sell toxins alongside electricity.
What Measure Is a Non-Human?: Neither Spidey or Kamala treat him any differently for being a robot, though Spidey does make a dig at him liking the original better that makes Electro angry.

Green Goblin

Green Goblin / Norman Osborn

Ax-Crazy: While him being The Voiceless means his personality isn't in the forefront, it's clear from his Mad Eye, Slasher Smile, and cackling Evil Laugh when left idle that Norman is as violently crazy as usual.
Demoted to Extra: He had a major role in one level and a boss fight in another in the first game, while here he's both a race-unlocked collectible and replaced plot-wise by Goblin 2099.
Gadgeteer Genius: Norman Osborn is among the brightest minds on Earth, but his insanity causes him to put that intellect towards developing deadly gadgetry for his crimnal interests, such as his Goblin Glider and pumpkin bombs.
Juggling Dangerously: One of his idle animations has him juggling pumpkin bombs, only to eventually mess up and drop them explosively onto the ground.
Not Quite Flight: He has his signature Goblin Glider that he can call in for assisted flight.
Palette Swap: Roderick Kingsley A.K.A. the Hobgoblin not only plays exactly the same as Norman's Goblin with his pumpkin bombs, Goblin Glider, and Shock and Awe gloves, he also possesses the same Mad Eye, Slasher Smile, Evil Laugh, and bomb-juggling idle animations, with only their appearances differentiating them.
Shock and Awe: He's somehow developed himself gloves that can generate a beam of electricity for shocking foes and powering generators, a tech-given ability never exhibited by any other version of the Goblin.
Throw Down the Bomblet: Has a supply of his trademark laughing pumpkin bombs for blowing up both silver objects and enemies.
The Voiceless: While he engages in Voice Grunting and Evil Laughing, he never utters a proper word when played as.

Goblin 2099

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_162254_youtube.jpg

Clothes Make the Superman: Goes further than regular Goblin's tool-granted powers by wearing a full-on super-suit that provides various inherent powers, such as at-will Flight, an Invisibility Cloak, and the ability to No-Sell toxins.
Gadgeteer Genius: Shares Norman's high intellect and penchant for personally developing deadly gadgetry, especially his superpower-granting suit
"Get Back Here!" Boss: Introduced with Spider-Gwen chasing him around Manhattan.
Invisibility Cloak: His super-suit has cloaking technology that lets him turn invisible to get past security systems.
Mad Scientist: Just like Norman Osborn, this Goblin dabbles in genetic engineering for his goals, such as forcing an unwilling Fusion Dance on Venom and Carnage to become Carnom.
Throw Down the Bomblet: He can throw bombs that destroy silver bricks, though they're instant shock-grenades rather than the original Goblin's pumpkin bombs.

Hammerhead

Hammerhead / Joseph

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_160754_youtube.jpg

Evil Versus Evil: He's determined to overthrow the Kingpin.
Sharp-Dressed Man: As someone imitating a '20s gangster, he's dressed in a pin-stripe suit.
Use Your Head: His iconic Hard Head is his primary "weapon", whether for a head-lowered Foe-Tossing Charge or a head-slamming Shockwave Stomp.

Kraven the Hunter

Kraven the Hunter / Sergei Kravinoff

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_3_81.jpg

Voiced by: Ronan Summers

The Beastmaster: He also attacks Spider-Man with a lion. Thankfully, give the lion some meat and he stops attacking you.
Javelin Thrower: His ranged attack involves chucking his spear and pulling another out of Hammerspace, doing so for as many targets as selected.
Super-Senses: Being a highly trained hunter who has Spider-Man as his chosen prey, he's honed his senses to become a Scarily Competent Tracker and possess a low-key form of Spider-Sense.
Third-Person Person: He really likes exclaiming how he's "Kraven the Hunter", something that ends up annoying White Tiger and Ms. Marvel by the end of his boss fight.
Weapon-Based Characterization: He wields a hunting spear to signify his wild and aggressive status as a, well, hunter.

Lizard

Lizard / Curtis "Curt" Connors

Demoted to Extra: He had a whole bonus mission revolving around him in the first game, while here he's just a collectible unlockable.
Discard and Draw: He loses his big-fig transformation from the first game, and with it the regular mini-fig interactivity, but in exchange the Lizard can use tech panels, which was originally Curt-exclusive.
Genius Bruiser: He compliments the Lightning Bruiser powerset of a big-fig with the tech-panel skills of his scientist background.

Mysterio

Mysterio / Quentin Beck

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_1_41.jpg

Adaptational Badass: Usually in the comics his threat comes the trickery of messing with his foes heads, but here his illusion abilities are strong enough to hurt the heroes with his mirage copies, and he also possesses genuine magical abilities.
Master of Illusion: As usual, his main powerset revolves around creating illusions to fool his enemies.
Mind Control: Mentally influencing others into obliviously doing his bidding is just a regular part of his Master of Illusion skills.
Squishy Wizard: He may have gotten more badass since the previous game, but he's still utterly abysmal at directly fighting, so he relies on supporting other, more fight-capable villains against the heroes, and once caught lacking he'll go Screw This, I'm Outta Here to avoid a beating.
Took a Level in Badass: In the previous game he only had energy-shooting tech and the ability to vanish in puffs of smoke, but here he's developed genuine Mind over Matter skills and the power of Teleportation, made his suit impervious to toxins, and became able to use proper Invisibility.
Your Mind Makes It Real: His illusion copies are somehow able to cause real harm, implicitly by making his targets believe they're being hit.

Rhino

Rhino / Aleksei Sytsevich

Voiced by: Pedro Lloyd Gardiner

Dumbass Has a Point: When Sandman calls him a Unicorn, he points out that unicorns have one horn, he has two.
Horn Attack: Having two sharp and sturdy horns on his head, he of course uses them for fighting, such as slashing with his melee combo or stabbing with his Foe-Tossing Charge.
Rhino Rampage: He's a rhino-themed Dumb Muscle villain who uses both his horns and massive body for fighting and has a strong penchant for charging into things and people.

Sandman

Sandman / William Baker / Flint Marko

Voiced by: John Guerrasio

Demoted to Extra: Not only is he only involved in a sidequest compared to having an entire level revolving mostly around him (with a little help from Abomination) in the previous game, he's no longer necessary for free-play puzzle-solving due to the abandoning of sandbox pad transformations that only he and his minions could use.
Elemental Shapeshifter: His sand-based physiology lets him morph his body in various ways for combat, puzzle-solving, and general fun, including imbuing himself with Super-Strength, burrowing through earth, passing through grates, and making a memory game involving becoming sandcastles. Though the loss of sandbox pad spots means he can't exhibit the full extent of this power here.
Not Quite Flight: Unlike some versions of Sandman that can outright fly, here he can simply create a mini-sand-tornado with his legs to glide through the air
Sand Blaster: As usual, his powers involve beiing a sand-based Elemental Shapeshifter, though he no longer has puzzle relevance due to the abandoning of sandbox pads.
Vitriolic Best Buds: With Rhino this time since Abomination isn't in the game.

Scorpion

Scorpion / MacDonald "Mac" Gargan

Beware My Stinger Tail: He wouldn't be the "Scorpion" without a long stinger-tipped super-strong tail for stabbing people with, alongside cutting vines and smashing cracked walls.
In a Single Bound: By utilizing the strength of his tail, he can launch himself into the air like characters with proper Super-Strength.
Poisoned Weapons: While never exhibited in the comics, this Scorpion has artificial venom (literal venom, not symbiote goo from the character Venom) that provides a poisonous edge to his stinger attacks, alongside being able to shoot stinger-tip-shaped poisonous projectiles for range.
Ray Gun: For whatever reason, this version of Scorpion takes hints from Robo-Scorpions by being able to shoot a super-hot laser from his stinger.
Super-Senses: Like in the comics, he has a lesser form of the Spider-Sense alongside enhanced tracking skills.

Shocker (Classic)

Shocker (Classic) / Herman Schultz

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_0438.jpg

Blow You Away: Accurately representing the comics, he fights by energetically charging air within his gauntlets to create shockwave inducing wind blasts.
Clothes Make the Superman: He doesn't possess any inherent superpowers, but his shockwave gauntlets grant him a decent repertoire of super-human attack moves.
Hand Blast: Alongside enhancing his punches, his Shocker Gloves also can eject the air it compresses into concussive blasts for attacking at range.
Power Fist: His Shocker Gloves provide massively boosted punching strength through creating shockwaves, which not only provides a decent threat to Spider-Man and other heroes but can also be used to smash cracked walls, which is the only strength-related environmental thing he can interact with since he otherwise has normal human strength.

Shocker (Homecoming)

Shocker (Homecoming) / Herman Schultz

Breaking the Fourth Wall: Following his pre-boss puzzle fight, he outright drops his collectible card (which are otherwise treated as being metaphorical) as a literal card, before grabbing it back and accidentally dropping his Gold Brick.
Even Evil Has Standards: He may be petty enough to drop gargoyles on random citizens for being denied mayoral election, but even he thinks poorly of others who mess up parties.
Evil Is Petty: He starts dropping gargoyles on folk because he's pissed about not being elected mayor of Manhattan Noir.
Glass Cannon: In both his pre-boss and proper boss fights, his Shocker Glove attacks pack a decent punch, but he flinches very easily and rarely turns invulnerable, making him go down quite easily and quickly when caught in a punchable vulnerable state.
Hand Blast: Similar to regular Shocker, his Shocker Glove can shoot electric blasts for ranged attacking, but his lack of body insulation means he can't charge it up to beam-shooting generator-charging levels.
Power Fist: While the mechanics behind it have changed from shockwaves to electrical enhancement, his Shocker Glove still provides heavily boosted punching power for fighting and smashing cracked walls.
Shock and Awe: Being based on the Homecoming version, his Power Fist actually does utilize electricity.

Tinkerer

Tinkerer / Phineas Mason

Death Course: One application of his mechanical genius is creating lethally dangerous obstacle courses that reward survivors, one of which is found in the middle of Oscorp Tower.
Evil Old Folks: He's a balding old man who uses his high scientific and technological prowess to commit crimes. He even tries to invoke him being an "evil old man" to beg the player not to hit him when his defenses are gone.
Flunky Boss: Due to his normal human old-man frailty, his boss fight consists entirely of having the player face against a Sentry and Kree soldiers while he's kept safe in a Beehive Barrier.
Gadgeteer Genius: One of the premier examples in Marvel Comics, Phineas is just as skilled here at developing high-grade tech at low material cost, even managing to re-program and potentially upgrade a Kree Sentry
Ray Gun: His primary weapon when played as is a futuristic energy gun, which is one part Lightning Gun for shocking foes and charging generators with electricity, one part Pocket Rocket Launcher for blowing up silver objects with explosive bolts.
Squishy Wizard: He's one of the greatest Gadgeteer Geniuses in all of Marvel Comics, even able to take high-grade tech like Kree Sentries and outright upgrade them, but for a capable foe of Spider-Man, he's exactly as frail and feeble as a regular old man, with him being a One-Hit-Point Wonder once you get past his Sentry and minions.
The Voiceless: Averted. He is one of the only few boss battles in the "Who's the Boss" challenge to speak in free play.

Venom

Venom / Edward "Eddie" Brock

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_3_257.jpg

Adaptational Villainy: Unlike his comic book counterpart who is an antihero, this Venom is a full on villain.
Composite Character: His base form is regular Venom, but he can also turn into Ultimate Venom as well.
Foil: To Carnage. Both are sinister and insane, but Venom is more serious and focused while Carnage is a Laughing Mad character.
Hulking Out: Regular Venom starts growing, then rips himself apart, in order to turn into the bigger and stronger Ultimate Venom.
Lighter and Softer: While there's still plenty of creepy and freaky stuff in the "Symbiote Surprise" level relating to him, he's lost most of his outright terrifying qualities from the first game, having a more generally menacing Evil Sounds Deep voice instead of being creepily raspy, his scenarios all take place in lighter places, he never Jump Scares the player, and his Hulking Out into Ultimate Venom both goes by much faster and loses its' original Painful Transformation feel.
Super-Strength: As a big-fig, Ultimate Venom possesses immense strength that lets him rip off strength handles and smash cracked walls.
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Works with Carnage despite being annoyed with his crazy attitude.

Venom 2099

Venom 2099 / Kron Stone

Acid Attack: The primary combat difference Kron has from Eddie as Venom is changing the Charged Attack from a web scattershot to spraying his acidic blood and saliva around him, being a much more effectively damaging attack.
Moveset Clone: Kron is for the most part the same as Eddie in terms of powers, outside the transforming since that was to include Ultimate Venom, though his charged attack is changed from web scattershot to Acid Attack.
Red Eyes, Take Warning: Contrasting most symbiote hosts having white eyes like Spider-Man's mask, his are a vibrantly glowing red.

The Vulture (Classic)

The Vulture (Classic) / Adrian Toomes

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maxresdefault_2_510.jpg

Evil Old Folks: Being extremely advanced age does nothing to diminish his villainous interests.
Feather Flechettes: His ranged attack involves flinging feathers at foes.
"Get Back Here!" Boss: Both his story fight and unlock fight involve chasing after him while he lays air mines in order to punch him until he gives up.
Weapons That Suck: Can throw Gravity Mines.

The Vulture (Homecoming)

The Vulture (Homecoming) / Adrian Toomes

Evil Old Folks: He might not be as old as classic Adrian, and is a whole lot nicer, but he's still quite advanced in age and an unrepentant villain.
Energy Weapon: Unlike classic Vulture, he carries around a pair of high-tech energy guns that shoot super-heated plasma.
No-Sell: His "supersuit" being Powered Armor means he's impervious to toxic gas and goo.
Vocal Dissonance: Since he shares voice lines with the classic Vulture, there are moments where he seems out of character.

Thanos & The Black Order

Thanos' Army in General

Downloadable Content: They come with the Infinity War DLC pack.
No-Sell: Every member of the Order except for Ebony Maw alongside Thanos are completely impervious to damage from toxins, fire, and electricity, meaning only direct attacks can hurt them.
Villain Protagonist: They're the protagonists of the DLC pack they come in, where they (well, Thanos, Ebony Maw, Corvus Glaive, and Proxima Mignight specifically) attack the Black Bolt-lead Attilan while searching for Thanos' son Thane

Thanos

Adaptational Wimp: In the comics, Thanos wielding the Infinity Gauntlet is a Physical God, and even the slightly wimpier movie version is still a Reality Warper, but here he simply has a Combo Platter Powers skillset while otherwise being the same One-Man Army he is without them. Granted, implementing a canon-accurate Infinity Thanos would make him Purposely Overpowered, so to balance things, weakening him is necessary.
Ascended Extra: While in the grand scheme of things he was Demoted to Extra, the fact he has an entire DLC level dedicated to him provides leagues more game relevance than the previous two LEGO Marvel games, where he was only an unlockable in both, and at best acted as the Greater-Scope Villain for LEGO Avengers while being The Unfought.
Abusive Parents: Nebula's laundry list of issues can be laid at his feet, Gamora had a less troubled but still miserable childhood, and it's all but stated that he's trying to kill his son Thane.
Cool Chair: His hovering throne, which he uses to get about when he can't be bothered walking.
Demoted to Extra: The Big Bad for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and one of the biggest threats in the regular Marvel universe on his worse days. Here... he doesn't appear in the main storyline, only getting a mention here and there. In fact, in the vanilla game he's not even playable.
In a Single Bound: He can do a charged jump.
Mind Control: The Mind Stone lets him take control of unfocused minds, which Gwenpool notes is rather unethical, but Thanos is already evil so it's no biggie.
Mind over Matter: While it's unclear if he's using the Space Stone, Reality Stone, or both at once to do so, he's able to manipulate and/or build objects from a distance by willing it.
Reality Warper: Thanos uses the Reality Stone to shoot laserbeams to destroy gold objects.
Sleeves Are for Wimps: The DLC Thanos comes in his Avengers: Infinity War outfit, which lacks sleeves.
Super Power Lottery: As Gwenpool repeatedly gushes about during the DLC mission, the Combo Platter Powers he gets from the Infinity Gauntlet is ridiculously good, able to do so many things that would normally take multiple different characters, which is added to by being The Juggernaut as a Bigfig Titan.
Thinking Up Portals: His finishing move is grabbing an enemy and dropping them through a pair of portals conjured by the Space Stone.
Teleportation: Alongside Thinking Up Portals, the Space Stone allows him to perform a warp-dash and use teleporter spots.
Time Master: The Time Stone naturally allows him to manipulate the flow of time around him.

Corvus Glaive

Double Weapon: His eponymous weapon, the glaive, is a dual-bladed spear.
In the Hood: Wears a black hood, along with a ragged cape.

Cull Obsidian

The Brute: He's the primary muscle of Thanos' Children while also being not too bright, which is represented by being a big-fig with abilities focused on being The Juggernaut over anything skillful.
Brutish Character, Brutish Weapon He the brute, mindless strength for the Black Order, and he wields a stone hammer that he channels his strength into forceful swings for smashing enemies and objects with.

Ebony Maw

Mind Control: His powers of mental persuasion are incredibly powerful, comparable to the Mind Stone in terms of how he can take command over even the strongest minds so long as they're at least slightly unfocused.
Squishy Wizard: As his bio notes, he doesn't do great in a direct fight, and he's the only member that can't No-Sell elemental damage, so he prefers keeping himself secluded away in safe places while making his brainwashed servants due most of the work.

Proxima Midnight

Double Weapon: Her personal weapon is a double-bladed spear, which can be temporarily charged with some sort of "anti-photon" energy for extra damage and stunning.
Two Girls to a Team: Her and Supergiant.

Supergiant

Adaptational Badass: In the comics and other adaptations she's a Squishy Wizard, while here she's interestingly the only member of Thanos' forces possessing genuine Nigh-Invulnerability, with even Thanos being hurtable and simply possessing a Healing Factor.
In the Hood: Part of her image is a white hood that provides a Light Is Not Good feel to her image among the Order.
Psychic Powers While her Mind Control is not quite on Ebony Maw's level, she makes up for it with general psychic prowess, such as Mind over Matter, Intangibility, and psychic blasts.

Other Villains

Attuma

Attuma / Nerkkod

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200507_204939_youtube.jpg

Adaptational Villainy: In the comics he started out a villain before eventually pulling a Heel–Face Turn, while in this game he starts and ends the story an unrepentant villain.
Amazing Technicolor Population: His skin is blue.
Arc Villain: He's the heroes' main headache in Lemuria.
Cool Sword: His signature weapon is a sword that is also part trident. It has Shock and Awe properties as well, though only when striking enemies.
Race Lift: Changed from an Atlantean to Lemurian, since Atlantis and pretty much everything associated with it isn't in the game.
Rogues' Gallery Transplant: A somewhat downplayed example, as he goes from antagonizing Namor the Submariner to antagonizing Namor ally Stingray and the Avengers.
Super-Strength: Being an Atlantean/Lemurian provides him massively enhanced strength from living in the highly-pressurized sea-depths, and even then his strength is slightly more potent than regular sea-dwellers.

Ayesha

Ayesha / Kismet

Affably Evil: For a pompous leader of a race of manchildren, she is at least polite to the player character for helping them.
Amazing Technicolor Population: Like all of the Sovereign, her skin is gold.
Composite Character: Has the appearance and attitude of her film incarnation, while having the abilities of her comic version.
Flying Brick: As a failed attempt to re-create the process that made Adam Warlock, while she lacks his magical powers and can't No-Sell elemental damage, she still has Super-Strength, Flight, and a Healing Factor.
Flying Firepower: While not magically inclined like Adam, she can still compliment her Flying Brick abilities with the power to shoot destructive gold energy blasts and beams from her hands.
Revenge Before Reason: The Sovereign tried attacking Kang for dragging them to Chronopolis. After they got their butts kicked in, Ayesha's prepared to try again, as revenge for the last asskicking.

Black Knight (Garret)

Black Knight / Nathan Garrett

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_161738_youtube.jpg

Evil Is Hammy: He really embraces his Black Knight image, bellowing out his villainous statements with loudness and enthusiasm.
Spin to Deflect Stuff: In his boss fights he can deflect all attacks, both ranged and melee, by rapidly twirling his sword in front of him.

Bullseye (Old West)

Bullseye (Old West) / Lester

Adapted Out: Despite having both Old West Bullseye and Eliza, who is technically Bullseye's Distaff Counterpart from Marvel Noir, regular old classic Bullseye is nowhere to be seen in this game.
Badass in a Nice Suit: Unlike classic Bullseye wearing an actual costume, this Old West version wears a snazzy Western-style black-and-white suit that emphasizes his badassery.
Death Dealer: This Bullseye primarily uses sharpened cards for throwing with his Improbable Aiming Skills.
Meaningful Name: He not only is so skilled at throwing things he always gets a bulls-eye, he himself has a bulls-eye painted on his forehead, something he laments as a poor idea after the player beats him.
Teleport Spam: For some reason, despit teleportation not being one of his actual abilities, his boss fight has him keep vanishing and reappearing throughout the sheltered passage he's fought in, possibly representing some Stealth Expert qualities since it is a really dark passage.

Captain Corbett

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_161317_youtube.jpg

Captain Corbett: One more crack of the whip.

The Beastmaster: His main source of threat to Kid Colt is siccing his trained circus animals on the hero, but the time-displaced nature of Chronopolis has bereft him of his beasts, so he can only use his whip here.
Large Ham: His lines during free play are whimsical and wacky.
Whip of Dominance: His chosen weapon is an animal-taming whip, which normally is used to direct his trained animals in the Circus of Crime, but can also be used to attack foes and pull grapple points

Ego

Ego, the Living Planet

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_161154_youtube.jpg

Colony Drop: Being that he's a living planet, he attacks the heroes for disturbing him by manipulating his gravitational pull to launch giant meteors down through the atmosphere in an attempt to crush them.
Disproportionate Retribution: While being disturbed from his peaceful floating about in space through being dimensionally warped to Earth by Kang messing with the heroes portal understandably would make him grumpy, .he decides the "best" response to the heroes' "incompetence" would be crushing them to death with meteors before dealing with Kang himself.
Genius Loci: Again, living planet.
Flying Brick: His Guardians Vol. 2 DLC version can fly, has super strength, and is impervious to harm.
Promoted to Playable: Due to his regular version being a planet with a face, he's not unlockable for playing in the base game, but the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 DLC makes his human avatar version from that movie playable, while also allowing him to temporarily transform into a miniature version of his planet self for certain moves.

Elektra Noir

Elektra Noir / Eliza

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_160831_youtube.jpg

Composite Character: In the comics she was just a Gender Flip of Bullseye with similarities to Elektra, but her title here being Elektra Noir alongside her bio mentioning her "Bullseye Killer" title embraces her image of combining the looks and general identity of Elektra with the skills and profession of Bullseye.
The Dragon: Serves as the Kingpin's bodyguard in the Manhattan Noir level. The heroes have to get past her to get to Fisk.
Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette: Her skin is completely pale. It stands out compared to everyone else.
Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: Unless the player knows about her being an alternate version of Elektra, she kind of comes completely out of nowhere, with no real foreshadowing.
She-Fu: Her charged attack has her summersaulting around kicking the everlasting crap out of anything in reach, alongside her regular melee combat including lots of spinning and flipping.

Grandmaster

Grandmaster / En Dwi Gast

Voiced by: Kerry Shale

Adaptational Badass: The Thor: Ragnarok version doesn't display any of his comics self's powers in the movie, but here he's a Palette Swap to the original with the exact same Physical God powerset.
Cosmic Chess Game: As usual, he enjoys setting up extra-dimensional games with heroes and villains as the "game pieces", able to create miniature worlds to act as battlefields for "players" to duke it out based around his current rules.
Palette Swap: The "Thor: Ragnarok" version of him plays exactly the same as his classic version due to being an Adaptational Badass, with only their appearances being different.
Physical God: As an Elder of the Universe, he has immense magical and psychic powers, is Nigh-Invulnerable to all harm, and possesses Flight.
Secret Character: While his Thor: Ragnarok version is unlocked through normal collection, his regular version requires playing through at least one of his games (win or loss is irrelevant) to acquire.
Time Master: Like Doctor Strange, he can play around with time.

Kingpin

Kingpin / Wilson Fisk

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_160951_youtube.jpg

Classy Cane: Befitting his classy image as a literal kingpin, his personal weapon is a energy-bolt-shooting crystal-topped Sword Cane that he rests his hands on top of during his idle animation.
Evil Is Petty: He's apparently such an oppressive mayor for Manhattan Noir that he's willing to send his goons to arrest a minor civilian just for importing British tea because it defies his prohibiton against anything not made by his personal organizations.
Stout Strength: Amongst the big-figs he has one of the widest and fattest appearances, but underneath that fat is a wall of muscle that provides borderline Super-Strength for an un-augmented human.
Too Dumb to Live: He stops in the middle of a fight to dance to his favourite song.

The Living Totem

Classy Cane: To go with his desire to be a singer, he carries around a stylish cane to pose with and tap around.
Designated Villain: In-universe, even. Rawhide Kid just assumes he's evil, but actually, he just wants to go home. He isn't even doing anything that could be mistaken as evil.
Fantastic Racism: He doesn't have a high opinion of humans, to put it mildly (then again, given how they treat him, it's hard to blame him).
The Juggernaut: Being a flightless big-fig, the main thing going for him is his Super-Strength, Healing Factor, and immunity to fire and toxins, which combine to let him plow through enemies and objects easily, especially when performing his Foe-Tossing Charge.
Living Statue: He has the appearance and body structure of a, well, living totem, but he's actually a crash-landed alien that by sheer coincedence just resembles a totem pole.

Maximus the Mad

Maximus the Mad / Maximus Boltagon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220809_085515_youtube.jpg

Ain't Too Proud to Beg: Maximus is cowardly enough to beg for his life when Black Bolt has him cornered, even after he sold his family and Attilan out to the Kree and tried to kill them.
Arc Villain: For the Inhumans. They have to deal with him to sort out their own problems.
BFG: The playable Maximus carries around a large, unfriendly looking gun.
Fantastic Racism: He looks down on humans.
Glass-Shattering Sound: His big gun can shatter glass.
Large Ham: In fairness to him, he is mad.
Mind Control: He's capable of using his mind-controlling powers on people.
Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist: He tries to justify selling out his family and Attilan to the Kree for this, claiming that their combined forces alone can take down Kang, but his attitude makes it clear he simply was thinking Let No Crisis Go to Waste.

M.O.D.A.M.

M.O.D.A.M. / Olinka Barankova

Distaff Counterpart: She's a female counterpart to M.O.D.O.K, both in appearance and personality.
Fun with Acronyms: Mental Organism Designed for Aggressive Maneuvers.
Large Ham: She's prone to psychotic shrieking and yelling.
Loophole Abuse: She's designed to obey A.I.M.'s orders. Too bad they didn't give an order for her to not turn on them.
Misplaced Retribution: She's angry at A.I.M., so she's going to kill some of their goons who don't even know who she is or why she's angry! That'll teach 'em (probably)!

M.O.D.O.K

M.O.D.O.K / George Tarleton

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_160636_youtube.jpg

Voiced by: Kerry Shale

Batman Gambit: Squirrel Girl's sidequest involves A.I.M. "capturing" him because they "mistook" him for the real M.O.D.O.K betraying them. Since he turned out to be the real deal after all, it's implied that this was merely a ruse to convince her that his "costume" was really just that realistic.
Large Ham: When you're a giant floating head, made by mad scientists, aggressively shouting every word and being smugly boisterous just comes with the territory.
Paper-Thin Disguise: His disguise to fool Squirrel Girl is... a paper-mache version of himself. It actually manages to work.
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: He's terrified of chickens, which Rocket uses to his repeated advantage. In fairness, the chickens of Chronopolis are vicious.

Morgan Le Fay

Voiced by: Kate O'Sullivan

Cain and Abel: She's out to kill her half-brother Arthur and take his throne.
Evil Brit: Emphasizing both her origins in Medieval England myth and evil desire to lethally dethrone her brother, her particular British accent is super-posh and extremely haughty.
Skeletons in the Coat Closet: She wears skull-shaped hair decs.

Mother

Humanoid Abomination: Her usual appearance is of a doting '50s-era mother, and even when shapeshifted she sticks to human forms, but in reality she's an incredibly powerful and very dangerous extra-dimensional entity.
Imposter Forgot One Detail: What gives Mother away is that she always talks like a '50s-era stereotypical doting mother regardless of her current form (like a Noir-era male) or the situation. Yes, that also includes as she's being punched in the face.
Worf Had the Flu: When last seen in the comics, she brainwashed any adult nearby into assisting, and was powerful enough Billy had to go semi-Demiurge just to get rid of her. Here, Billy mentions that she's in a weakened state, so mercifully, she's none of those things during Wiccan's unlock quest.

Nebula

Anti-Villain: She's not exactly heroic, to say the least, but she's not committing out and out villainy, instead picking fights with Kang's forces for her own reasons.
Bald Head of Toughness: Her usual completely hairless head represents well her rough and tough skills and attitude, but she notes that this puts a damper on any hair-related sister-talk and bonding.
Blood Knight: She really enjoys getting to let loose fighting some enemies, with her using her quest as a way to both have some stress relief and get a few things off her chest relating to Thanos and Gamora.
Cyborg: Due to Thanos forcibly adding more machinery to her body whenever she lost to Gamora, Nebula proclaims that by now she's around 70% cybernetic, which comes with the benefits of a nanomachine-type Healing Factor, the ability to interface with tech panels despite not being very brainy herself, and a capacity to repair broken machinery due to maintaining her own body.
Dual Wielding: Her chosen weapony is a pair of katanas.
Freudian Slip: While fighting some Kang goons, she yells out "take that, Thanos / Gamora", before correcting herself.
I Just Want to Be Loved: Nebula just wants a sister who doesn't kick her ass all the time.
Mr. Fixit: Her highly cyberized body that needs constant maintenance has resulted in her being able to fix broken blue objects.
Super-Reflexes: Is passively capable of easily blocking projectiles with her swords, no matter how fast the projectiles are and even if aimed In the Back.
The Voiceless: Only has Voice Grunting when played as.

The Presence

The Presence / Sergei Krylov

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200507_204836_youtube.jpg

Atomic Superpower: He got his powers through exposure to intense radiation, which allows him to generate and manipulate nuclear energy.
Barrier Warrior: To make up for being a Squishy Wizard, he forms his nuclear energy into a barrier to block attacks. Naturally, being formed from his energy reserves, using too much at once for attacking dissipates the barrier and leaves him temporarily vulnerable to attacking.
Cool Chair: Has his classic hover chair for flying around.
Mind Control: His main schtick, at least in this game, is turning heroes into Brainwashed and Crazy servants for him.
Squishy Wizard: His health as a boss isn't very large and he only has his barrier for defense, but he makes up for that by mostly avoiding direct fighting, letting his brainwashed minions take up the slack while he's safe in his shield.

Ronan

Ronan the Accuser

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_160208_youtube.jpg

Adaptational Wimp: In the comics one of the useful powers a Universal Weapon grants is Flight, but despite being given most of his comics-based powers he lacks that, only able to fight on the ground.
Amazing Technicolor Population: Is one of the blue-skinned Kree.
Invisibility: Is capable of turning himself invisible.
Lighter and Softer: Not quite as rabidly, "burn-planets-to-the-core" insane as his movie counterpart, on who he is based.
Swiss-Army Weapon: His Universal Weapon, which not only has the strength to crush foes and cracked walls but can shoot projectile energy, generate force-fields, and a heap of other useful features.

Steel Serpent

Steel Serpent / Davos

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_155937_youtube.jpg

Voiced by: Sacha Dhawan

Evil Counterpart: He's a villainous chi user who desires to take Iron Fist's title and position.
Ki Manipulation: Part and parcel of being Iron Fist's Evil Counterpart is manipulating life energy to empower himself and attack others.
The Resenter: Hates and is envious of Danny Rand, who gained the power of the Iron Fist where Davos didn't.
Villain: Exit, Stage Left: He tries to flee once he loses his control of Shao-Lao, but Spidey webs him up.

Super-Adaptoid

Adaptive Ability: It's in the name. It's designed to adapt and copy its enemies' abilities.
An Ice Person: It can shoot freezing beams by generating an energy popsicle. It's unknown which hero it copied ice powers from, since none of the Avengers do.
The Blank: Its head looks like a blank helmet, since it's based on the Avengers Assemble version.
Combo Platter Powers: It has a powerset copied from the Avengers, such as Thor's lightning generation, Iron Man's super-heated repulsor beams, and being a flying Winged Humanoid like Falcon.
Flight: By combining iron Man's repulsors with Falcon's Winged Humanoid status, it can fly through the air with both speed and grace.
Flunky Boss: In the last part of its fight, it calls in lesser Adaptoids that use either bows and arrow or dual guns to distract and target-confuse the player.
"Get Back Here!" Boss: The first and third phases of its fight involve chasing it around and trying to get close enough to punch it until it drops down and can be fought normally.
Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: By replicating Captain America, it can generate a shield that reflects beams and can be thrown as a Precision-Guided Boomerang
Playing with Fire: By replicating Iron Man's repulsors it can shoot super-heated energy beams.
Stealth Expert: It's been following the heroes since the game began, and they're none the wiser until it reveals itself.
Shock and Awe: By replicating Thor's hammer it can shoot blasts and beams of electricity.
Sizeshifter: By replicating Ant-Man and Wasp, it can grow utterly gigantic and shrink incredibly small.
Super-Strength: Due to copying the Hulk it has immense strength for smashing cracked walls and ripping off green handles.
Thunder Hammer: Carries a tiny energy hammer that produces electricity for imitating Thor.

The Supreme Intelligence

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_155825_youtube.jpg

Voiced by: Gary Martin

If My Calculations Are Correct: It tries stating the statistical odds of what Black Bolt and Medusa are doing, but they don't listen.
The Man Behind the Man: The Supremor is Ronan's boss.
Mind Control: It manages to control Star-Lord, Rocket and Groot, and makes them attack Black Bolt and Medusa.
Vagueness Is Coming: Apparently it can detect some kind of unusual temporal event coming, but rather than just explaining this to folk, it just keeps telling them "you cannot comprehend what is happening."

Taserface

Atrocious Alias: Having finally gotten the news, Taserface tasks the heroes with finding a more imposing name than "Taserface". He goes with Spikeface.
BFG: While he still doesn't use any sort of taser, and is still pretty laughably inept, he does possess a massive laser-cannon that shoot both laser bolts and rockets, so he at least is a little more badass than his movie version.
No Indoor Voice: This guy doesn't speak any quieter than guttural bellowing.

Torg

Torg the Abominable Snow-King

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_155738_youtube.jpg

Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti: His brown, hairy, beastial humanoid appearance brings to mind bigfoot and sasquatch, while his "Abominable Snow-King" epithet references the yeti.
Brainwashed and Crazy: He spends most of his story appearance under the command of Attuma's Nexus Fragment-enhanced Control Pearl. Needless to say, once the control is broken, Torg is very unhappy towards Attuma.
The Juggernaut: As a non-flying bestial bigfig, his powerset revolves around combining Super-Strength and Super-Toughness to bulldoze through enemies and objects, especially when running or performing a Foe-Tossing Charge.
Mythology Gag: His whole involvement in the story is a reference to his last ever appearance in the comics, where Attuma brainwashes him with the Control Pearl and he fights the Avengers, and just like that story after leaving the area he never appears again at any later point, though this time he has the last laugh against Attuma by dragging him away to who knows where.

DLC Villains

Egghead / Elihas Starr

Arc Villain: He's the overall villain of the Ant-Man and the Wasp DLC pack.

Mr. Negative / Martin Li

Jekyll & Hyde: Mild-mannered businessman Martin Li turns into ruthless villain Mr. Negative.

Others Characters

Aunt May

Aunt May / May Parker

The beloved aunt and only living relative of Peter Parker A.K.A. Spider-Man.

Badass Normal: She has no powers, owns no special gadgets, and possesses no special skills, but she's still quite capable of beating up baddies with her Handbag of Hurt.
Bag of Holding: That tiny purse of hers is somehow spacious enough to carry both an endless supply of pies and an entire big and bulky old-school record-player.
Handbag of Hurt: That purse of hers isn't just for carrying her stuff, as it's filled with enough decently heavy items to painfully whack others upside the head.
Pie in the Face: Her personal choice of ranged attack is to pull pies out of her purse and throw them at enemies or distance targets.

The Collector

The Collector / Taneleer Tivan

Abnormal Ammo: Fitting with his "collector" theme, his ranged regular attack involves throwing action figures.
The Collector: Befitting his name and eccentricities, he likes collecting both powerful artifacts and living beings to both safeguard and admire them.
Composite Character: He combines the appearance of his MCU version with the godly powers and mindset of his comics version.
Mind Control: A handy power for keeping his living "souvenirs" complacent and accepting is possessing the ability to influence the minds of others.
Pragmatic Villainy: While his collecting obsession involves "collecting" rare and unusual people within the multiverse, he does provide free room and board with plenty of other amenities to take care of their needs, not out of concern of their mental health but because keeping them comfortable and happy preserves their "value", plus providing decently for their needs, as shown through their dialogue, makes them quite willing to return to and stay in his collection, if only for how crappy things are out in Chronopolis compared to the Gilded Cages he provides.
Time Master: As somebody who can travel through time if necessary to gather things for his collection, he of course can also manipulate its flow back and forth for certain objects.

Eson the Searcher

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200507_204757_youtube_6.jpg

Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: He's not only taller than a big-fig, he's taller than a sizeshifted ultra-fig, with just his torso and head combined being as tall as an average building, which doesn't even take into account his pelvis and legs hidden underwater.
Giant Foot of Stomping: Doctor Strange manages to momentarily summon Eson's fist during the final battle, which punches Kang flat.
Worf Had the Flu: Normally, the Guardians wouldn't stand even a chance against the Celestials. Kang mentions he found Eson at the end of time, and it's obviously taken a battering already.

J. Jonah Jameson

John "J." Jonah Jameson

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20220923_155611_youtube.jpg

Voiced by: Glenn Wrage

Abnormal Ammo: Being a newspaper editor, naturally he throws newspaper pages for his ranged attack, and looking closely at them shows they are of course headed by Spider-Man slander.^noteThat is absurd. In print, it is libel
Adaptational Heroism: Slightly. He's still a blustering, pompous jerk, but he's much, much more tolerant of Spidey than almost any other version of him out there.
Ascended Extra: Takes up Maria Hill's role as the one briefing the players about levels, whereas in the first game he was limited to a cameo in the second level, a role in a single Deadpool mission based on that cameo, and a minor recurring sidequest about taking photos.
Badass Normal: Has no inherent powers to his name, but when played as he's still a decent brawler with an impressively booming and destructive voice.
Hammerspace: He can somehow pull his editor's desk out of thin air any time he feels the need to scream for Peter Parker
Horrible Judge of Character: He declares himself an excellent judge of character. Kindly ignore all those newspapers declaring Spider-Man a menace.
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Throughout the game, J. Jonah Jameson is his usual Spidey-hating self, and gripes about the many mistakes the heroes have made. Just before "On Board the Sword", when things are at their worst, J. Jonah wishes the heroes the best of luck, including Spider-Man.
Super-Scream: He puts his impressive vocals to good use with his Charged Attack by yelling "PARKER!" so loud that it can shatter glass.

Kronan Warrior

Kronan Warrior/ Stone Man from Saturn

Ambiguously Evil: While we know he was made a slave by the Red King, his Composite Character nature means it's unclear whether he was a heroic rebel or a vicious savage, and since he dies almost as soon as he appears we'll never know.
Ambiguous Situation: After completing "Red King Revelation", you'll find a puzzle inside the arena featuring a Kronan benching a pillar. It's not clear whether this is the warrior having been rebuilt or another Kronan slave, since he's just as speechless as the one in the level.
Death by Adaptation: Being at least partially based on Korg in Thor: Ragnarok, while Korg survived to become an honorary Asgardian, the Kronan Warrior dies shortly after his introduction
Carry a Big Stick: His chosen weapon is a massive stone club, though you can only truly see it in action when playing as him.
Composite Character: The one fought in "Red King Revelation" seems to combine Korg, who was also captured on Sakaar in Thor: Ragnarok, with the Kronan Marauder from Thor: The Dark World, who also had No Name Given and experienced a One-Hit Kill in a Curb-Stomp Battle.
No Name Given: He's never referred to with a proper name, not even on his card, with the bio referring more to his species (and Korg being the primary representation for it) rather than him personally.
Rock Monster: He's a humanoid mass of rock that can walk and fight, but Hulk smashing him results in a pile of normal stone.
We Hardly Knew Ye: He shows up and is reduced to rubble in less than a minute, not even getting time to show any character.
What Measure Is a Non-Human?: No major fuss is made about the fact that the heroes killed another living being just to free their friend Hulk. Sure, as a Rock Monster he might be rebuildable in-universe, but him being a completely inhuman alien monster apparently made it fair game to reduce him to a pile of stone for their goals.

Nova Prime

Nova Prime / Irani Rael

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_021838_youtube.jpg

Curse Cut Short: In the first level, she announces that the Guardians are a bunch of something, but gets interrupted before she finishes.
Reasonable Authority Figure: Despite knowing full well the Guardians are a bunch of major somethings, she asks them for help anyway because she knows how useful and helpful they can be.
Throw Down the Bomblet: She can throw grenades to destroy silver objects.

President Bear

Accessory-Wearing Cartoon Animal: As a cartoonishly intelligent bear who was once elected president, he wears a top-hat emblazoned with red, white, and blue stripes along with stars, representing the American flag.
Ascended Extra: From one-off character in a side-quest of Marvel's Avengers, to minor recurring character.
Beary Friendly: For a big and rough-looking beast, President Bear is quite the civil guy, using his bear strength to help Star-Lord and Kid Colt after they free him and co-operating with the player's request to return to the Collector. Of course, as a bear he's not one to be treated lightly just because of his normal docility, like when he went "bear"serk in Bucky's Marvel's Avengers side-quest.
Canon Foreigner: The only notably named and prominently seen character in the game that doesn't come from any pre-existing non-LEGO Marvel media.
Distressed Dude: He's locked up on a train, only getting freed thanks to Star-Lord and Kid Colt. At some other point in his timeline, he's wound up as a guest of the Collector.
Hero of Another Story: Assuming the Spider-Ham quest is any indication, President Bear is his world's version of Bruce Banner. Kid Colt indicates he's met President Bear before, but doesn't elaborate.
Nearly Normal Animal: He's enough of an Intellectual Animal to understand human speech and run for president, but he's otherwise like most normal bears, being The Speechless and having an aggressive temper that sometimes causes him to go berserk.
Not-So-Imaginary Friend: As the Collector notes, he originates from the confused memories of the Winter Soldier. How he became real is anyone's guess.
Recurring Extra: While he did become an Ascended Extra, he's still only relegated to minor gags and isn't playable.
The Speechless: Being, y'know, a bear, the only way he "speaks" is through roars.

Ravonna (Major Unmarked Finale Spoilers)

Ravonna Renslayer / Terminatrix

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20200505_155542_youtube.jpg

"Such devastation. Your might is unsurpassable, my Kang."

Voiced by: Kate O'Sullivan

Kang's sort-of wife, who's not remotely happy with his conquering ways

Beware the Nice Ones: Playable Ravonna responds to attacks by telling her would-be attackers that she's run out of patience. Then she shoots them.
Big Good: She turns out to be undermining Kang behind his back by supplying Cosmo with info about how to take him down, making her the biggest force for good in this story.
The Dog Bites Back: She turns on Kang, and eventually uses his power crystal to turn him into a baby.
Funny Background Event: If left idle, the playable Ravonna starts dancing.
Future Badass: Terminatrix is much more powerful, gameplay-wise, than Ravonna. Not to mention she's got Kang and the Supreme Intelligence on her side.
No-Sell: As Terminatrix, she's immune to toxic goo and poisonous gases.
Powered Armor: Terminatrix wears a suit of hyper-advanced power armor that grants her a plethora of abilities.
Time Master: Ravonna and Terminatrix can rewind or fast-forward time just like Doctor Strange.
Took a Level in Jerkass: Terminatrix is much more grouchy and impatient than her past self.
Walking Spoiler: While her name and presence aren't spoilery, it's impossible to seriously talk about her without revealing she's the Big Good of the story. Terminatrix is even worse because just the fact she exists as a Future Badass Ravonna spoils The Stinger for the game.
