SPIDER-MAN- The bite of a genetically altered spider granted high
school student Peter Parker incredible arachnid-like powers: Strength,
agility, a spider-like sixth sense, and the ability to walk on walls. When a
burglar killed his beloved Uncle Ben, a grief stricken Peter vowed to use
his amazing abilities to protect his fellow man. He learned the invaluable
lesson that with great power comes great responsibility! Now the
fledgling super hero tries to balance a full high school curriculum, a
night job as a web designer for the Daily Bugle tabloid, a relationship
with the beautiful Mary Jane Watson, and swing time as the
misunderstood, web-slinging Spider-Man!

NICK FURY-Nick Fury is S.H.I.E.L.D's top man as well as leader of the
world famous Ultimates, a team of super humans charged with
protecting America from all threats. Fury is not a man to be taken lightly
and should be considered capable of anything if it means getting  the job
done. Fury has made it clear on many occasions that he does not approve
of Peter's Spider-Man hobby and that once Peter is 18, he belongs to
Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D.

MARY JANE WATSON-Mary Jane Watson, aka MJ, or just Mary, is a
beautiful redhead who is good friends with Liz Allan and the on-and-off
girlfriend of Peter Parker. Mary Jane wears simple clothes and wears
little make-up. She was the second person to learn of Peter's secret
identity and the only person who Peter revealed it to. She then took to
being his soul confidant and encouraging him in his role as Spider-Man.  
      

WOLVERINE-Logan, the mutant also known as Wolverine, is a former
assassin, now a premiere member of the world famous X-Men.
Possessing a mutant healing factor, a skeleton grafted with the
unbreakable alloy Adamantium, and a set of claws coated in the same
metal, and you have one of the most dangerous mutants in the world,
worthy of the former codename 'Weapon X'.   

HUMAN TORCH-Mutagenically transformed by cosmic rays into the 
heroic Human Torch, Johnny Storm is the hothead of the Fantastic Four.
Often impetuous and immature, the Torch has a talent for tormenting his
teammate, The Thing. With the ability to transform into living flame on 
command, which allows him to expel blasts of intense flame, as well as 
the power of flight while 'Flamed On', the Human Torch is always willing 
to lend an assist to Spider-Man, as well as partake in a friendly race every 
now and then!
