[edit]Mad Jim Jaspers
[edit]Sir James "Mad Jim" Jaspersis a character inAmerican comic booksseen inMarvel Comics.He was created by David Thorpe andAlan DavisforMarvel UK.He is a powerful supervillain who was the archenemy ofCaptain BritainandExcaliburas well as a few other heroes as well as the main antagonist of the Excalibur series.
In the reality of Earth-238,[8]James Jaspers, a British politician waged a political war on mutants. He had been elected into office as a member of the English Parliament because of his anti mutant and anti super heroes stance and politics, however Jaspers was a mutant himself with powerful reality-warping abilities. His political façade and motivations for the elimination of his fellow mutants and superheroes was essentially to ensure his supremacy. Jaspers seemed a gifted politician and adapt at swaying popular public opinion, with lines such as "if they were honest they wouldn't wear masks" but whether he was always mad, or descended into madness with the advent of his mutant reality warping powers, Jaspers had lost his sanity. Jaspers of Earth-238 was so determined to rid his world of mutants, he began to move beyond drumming up anti-mutant sentiment and constructed an incredibly powerful adaptive cybernetic construct known simply asthe Furyto hunt and eliminate all superpowered beings.
Jaspers had also formed an advanced technological equipped military task force charged with eliminating super powered beings, this group known as the Status Crew. Typically the Status Crew would round up powered beings to be held in concentration camps with their extermination there not long after. The Fury would deal with bigger threats. It would take less than two years for super powered beings to be on the verge of extinction. The Fury had been programmed by Jaspers to allow Jaspers to live as the sole powered being.
Unmatched in power by any other being, any potential threats ruthlessly destroyed by the Fury, Jaspers adopted the persona of Mad Jim Jaspers, a bank robber and crook paying homage to theMad HatterfromAlice in Wonderlandas well as continuing theLewis Carrollbook theme with his own bank robbing crew, the Crazy Gang. It was around this time that the Omniversal Guardian Merlyn aware of not just this reality's version of Jaspers danger to the multiverse, but the Jim Jaspers of the 616 reality who Merlyn realized possessed even greater reality warping power. Merlyn would teleport one of the few remaining super heroes of Earth-238, Captain UK Linda McQuillan, to the 616 designated reality. Importantly he would also do so whilst she was being observed by the deadly cybiote the Fury. The Earth of 238 would fall into disarray due to the mad machinations and reality warping of Jaspers. It had become known as a crooked earth. Of similar concern was that the Jaspers of 616 had begun his political ascension, a worrying sign of things to come.[9]
Upon returning to mainstream reality/616, Captain Britain found that another Sir James Jaspers was leading an anti-superhero campaign, with the aid ofHenry Peter GyrichandSebastian Shaw,members of theHellfire Club.
Jaspers managed to win a landslide general election victory on his anti-superhero platform and became Prime Minister of Britain. Events began to mirror those of Earth-238 and Jaspers unleashed the force of the Jaspers Warp upon London, causing much chaos and devastation. However, Jaspers found himself under attack from the reality-hopping Fury, and the two engage in a large-scale reality-warping battle in which Jaspers was ultimately killed by the Fury, who teleported him outside the universe, where he would have no reality to control and thus be rendered powerless.

Master Izois a fictional character appearing inAmerican comic bookspublished byMarvel Comics.A superhero martial artist, he is associated withDaredevil,and first appeared inDaredevilvol. 2 #112. He was created byEd BrubakerandMichael Lark.
The man who would be known in the modern age only as Master Izo was a member of the organizationThe Handhundreds of years ago in Feudal Japan. Following the death of its founder, Kagenobu Yoshioka, and its transformation from a samurai alliance into a ninja cult in service to a demon, Izo chose to leave. At this time he put out his eyes, which enabled him to see the world, he claimed, as Yoshioka had (and as Daredevil later would).[163]
Izo would later foundThe Chaste,a rival martial arts association situated atop a sheer cliff known as the Wall. However, his unhindered nature eventually led his students to vote him out, disgusted with his drinking and gambling.Sticktook his place as the leader of the Chaste. Izo was revealed to have been present shortly after the accident which gave Matt Murdock his superhuman senses, and reported this information anonymously to Stick. Later still, he became the trainer of the future supervillain and Hand assassinLady Bullseye,who he promised would one day become the Hand's leader.[163]He is mentioned a number of times in theBook of the Iron Fist.[164]
Much later, following the death of theSkrullposing as Hand leaderElektra,Izo journeyed to New York City, where the four remaining ninja-lords of the Hand were assembling to forcibly induct Daredevil as the new leader. Izo intervened to assist Daredevil in driving them off, which led them to switch their focus tothe Kingpin.Izo's purpose was in fact to manoeuvre Daredevil into taking the position, as a means of reforming the Hand away from its corrupted state. He was also revealed to have placedBlack Tarantulawithin the Hand as a mole, unbeknownst to Daredevil. Ultimately, Daredevil accepted the position, and ordered that the Kingpin and Lady Bullseye be banished. Her erstwhile ally's treachery exposed, Lady Bullseye vowed to kill Izo, who told her to "get in line."[165][163]Subsequently, Izo fakes his own murder at the hands of Daredevil to trick the Hand into accepting Daredevil as their leader.[166]He later shows up in Shadowland to reveal to the heroes involved in the battle against Daredevil and the Hand to explain his discovery that Matt Murdock had been possessed by the Beast.[167]
Master Izo is a formidable martial artist, one of the finest anywhere in the world, including being able to wield two katana at once. He has considerable stamina, enabling him to traverse the city by jumping on rooftops. Despite (or rather, as a result of) being blind, he has superhuman-radar senses, much as Daredevil does. He also evidently possesses some form of immortality or at least life-extending capability, as he is now somewhere in the area of 500 years old.

DeFilippis revealed that while he and Weir created the character, he was based on a background mutant fromNew X-Men: Academy X,#7. "We saw a cool bit of artwork in the background of a panel (I think it was Carlo Barberi who first drew him) and thought for a few seconds about a name, codename, and power set."[177]
Fictional character biography
[edit]While spending time in his home town park, Ben Hamill suddenly manifested his mutant powers. Unable to control his powers, Ben set flame to the town's park.
After the manifestation of his powers, Ben was enrolled in theXavier School for Gifted Youngsters.While at the school, he chose the codename Match, where he was present at Xavier's special assembly head by the headmasterCharles Xavierto inform the student body of an explosion that happened the night before caused by Magma who'd been awoken from a coma byJoshandJulian'sinvolvement. Xavier preached about heroism being more than being brave.[178]Match would later attend Parent's Week at Xavier's, although it is unknown if his parents for the week he seem to enjoy himself during the festive time.[179]While in class withKarma,he was asked along with his classmates if they'd seen Josh, who was unknowingly out on a date withRahne Sinclair.[180]
After enrolling at the institute, Hamill was assigned to the Paragons training squad under the tutelage ofRahne Sinclair.[181]Though hot-tempered (even voted "Shortest Temper"[182]), Hamill is a natural leader, and consequently, was named as the field leader for his squad.[183]As a part of the field squads games, the Paragons participated in a Danger Room session where they had to fight aHulkconstruct. After the exercise, the New Mutants squad tried the same simulation and beat the record set by the Paragons' exercise. During a team meeting with Rahne, Ben and his teammates expressed their dismay at the New Mutants squad having had beat their time. Rahne then gave them a much needed a pep talk, trying to remind them that they would have save a lot of lives if the session had been real.[184]Soon after,CyclopsandEmma Frostrevealed that Sinclair had been in a romantic relationship with a student,Josh Foley,who was abruptly departed from the school, leaving the Paragons without an advisor. Ultimately, formerNew Mutant,Magmastepped in to become the Paragons' mentor.[183]
Ben is still viewed as such by his former teammates after the dissolution of the squad system.[185]Following the events ofHouse of M,only 27 of the school's students retained their powers. All squads were dissolved, and the remaining students were merged into one group. Ben and his fellow former ParagonsTrance,Wolf Cub,andPixiewere revealed to be among the handful of still-powered Xavier students.[186]
Match, along with several of his fellow students, is sucked down into the realm ofLimbo.When attacked by demons, he quickly joins the fight, killing several demons while trying to protect Pixie andBlindfold.[187]Ben participates in the final fight againstBelascoand is returned to the school after Belasco is defeated.[188][189][190][191]
Ben relocates to San Francisco along with the other X-Men.[192]He reappears putting out fires started by rioting over Proposition X, an anti-mutant reproductive legislation being pushed by the anti-mutant organization "Humanity Now!"[193]After the riots subside, theDark X-Menalong with Norman Osborn declare a citywide curfew for all citizens prohibiting public activity after dark. InAvalanche's bar, Match, along with fellow studentHellionand other mutants angrily decide to cause a scene after curfew hours for all the world to see as a warning against the "fascism" of the Dark X-Men. As Match spreads fire throughoutUnion Square,the Dark X-Men come to arrest the troublemaking mutants.[194]After a battle, they are taken into custody by the Dark X-Men.[195]Eventually, Match and the other imprisoned mutants are freed by theX-Forceand teleported to the island ofUtopia.[196]
Ben's abilities are pyrokinesis, enabling him to produce and manipulate flame. In addition, he is seemingly immune to fire and high temperatures. As a side effect of his powers, Ben's head remains constantly aflame, though it appears that he can control the extent of the flaming; during a Danger Room session, he is able to maintain some level of stealth by lowering the intensity of his head flame. Ben's body is always glowing, and emits heat, however it is not hot enough to burn his clothing. The flame on his head is also not as hot as normal fire and as such, it does not burn what it touches. This was confirmed by his creators, Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir.

InCloak and Daggervol. 2 #5 (March 1986), Brigid underwent a drastic transformation and became known as Mayhem. The character subsequently appeared, as Mayhem, inCloak and Dagger#6–9 (May–Nov. 1986),Strange Tales#13–15 (April–June 1988), #19 (Oct. 1988),The Mutant Misadventures of Cloak and Dagger#1–2 (Oct.

Mayhem received an entry inThe Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Deluxe Edition#8. However, some of the color plates were reversed in that issue; those pages, including Mayhem, were re-printed correctly in issue #9.
Brigid O'Reilly was originally a policedetectivein Manhattan when she learned thatCloak and Daggerwere attacking criminals in her precinct. She at first wanted to bring the pair to justice,[200]but she eventually learned to trust the young crime-fighters.[201]Later, she took a squad of police officers to investigate a warehouse belonging to the same pharmaceutical company that was behind Cloak's and Dagger's powers. Some corrupt policemen, led by Roger Falcone, exposed the other police officers to a gas to asphyxiate them. With her dying breath, Brigid swore vengeance on Falcone. As Brigid lay dying, Cloak and Dagger found her, and though were too late to save the other police, Cloak surrounded her and Dagger with darkness, while Dagger tried to revive her with light. When this appeared not to work, the pair abandoned her body to search for those responsible.[202]
Though O'Reilly died, she was reborn as Mayhem. In this new form, Mayhem helped Cloak and Dagger find and fight the corrupt police. She then killed Falcone as promised.[203]She then became a vigilante, showing no mercy to the drug dealers and other criminals she pursues. Brigid was considered as a "potential recruit" for theInitiativeprogram, according toCivil War: Battle Damage Report.[204]
Mayhem exudes a green, venomous gas from her pores. If this gas enters another person's bloodstream, it paralyzes the person for a varying amount of time. Mayhem attacks people by raking their skin with her talon-like fingernails so that the gas will enter their bloodstreams. The gas can also act like atruth serum,forcing a victim of Mayhem to tell her the truth. Dagger's "light-knives" dissipate upon contact with this gas. Mayhem can levitate herself and fly.

Daughter of District Attorney William "Bill" Hollister, socialite Lily Hollister was datingHarry Osborn.Lily found a hidden door in Harry Osborn's closet and found an old journal of his.[251]She uncovered the location of one of Norman Osborn's secret rooms in the journal. When she had first gone in, she found all of the Goblin's equipment along with some experiments. After accidentally knocking over some experimental Goblin chemicals, she absorbed them into her skin, and was now able to transform into her "Menace" form at will. Stealing a weapons cache of the original Green Goblin, Norman Osborn, Menace was later hunted down byJackpot.During her search, she met Spider-Man and reluctantly accepted his help. Menace attacked a council meeting and kidnapped councilwoman Lisa Parfrey, with Spider-Man and Jackpot working together to try and stop her. Menace's glider slammed into the rescued councilwoman, killing her, and Menace escaped the crime scene, but not before accusing Spider-Man of being responsible for the woman's death.[252]
Menace later tried to threaten Bill Hollister, her father and one of the candidates for the election, into dropping out of the race for mayor while she continued supporting him in her public identity. She was sabotaging his campaign for his own good against Randall Crowne, his opponent, and began destroying her fathers advertisements. She also broke into their home and tried to threaten him into backing out of the running. Menace then proceeded to threaten the supposedly 'redeemed' Norman Osborn who had come to town when her actions inadvertently revealed that Crowne had been operating an illegal sweatshop in the city and Crowne asked him for help. Menace recreated Osborn's original death by ramming him with her glider, however, Osborn survived the attack and Menace spared him, after accusing Osborn of being a fool for devoting all his time and assets to Spider-Man's destruction. During theSkrull Invasion,Lily and Harry Osborn were attacked on the street, after getting away from Harry and changing into Menace she killed one of the invadingSkrulls,and then set her sights on Jackpot, believing her to be "Spider-Man's girlfriend". Their fight took her into the path of one of the Skrulls, with Menace's glider exploding on contact. Menace survived, though badly injured, and limped away from the scene.[253]
When Menace attacked a Hollister Rally, she managed to badly beat Spider-Man (who had earlier been shot through the arm) and claimed a "citizen's arrest" to the arriving police. Menace then flew into the Hollister party headquarters, and changed back into Lily Hollister, just before Harry walked in on her. She revealed to Harry that she was Menace. She then told Harry that she accepted his earlier marriage proposal.[254]On Election Day, Menace attacked two police officers for arresting her former friendCarlie Cooperfor a crime she didn't commit, then attacked Spider-Man when he appeared. Menace was about to finish him until Harry, as the Green Goblin, appeared and shot Menace with a serum, with Spider-Man giving her the full injection. This caused Menace to change back into Lily and was seen in a live broadcast, with her father watching in shock and in tears of this revelation. A few days after the event, with Bill Hollister as the new Mayor of New York, Lily was now in prison and was visited by Norman Osborn, who discovered the engagement ring given to her by Harry and welcomed her to the family.[254]
She is later seen released from prison and approaches Harry in her Menace form, telling him that she's "moved on". Harry believes that she has started a relationship with Norman and warns her that she will be disposed of once Norman's done with her.[255]
During theDark Reignstoryline, Lily reappears in her Menace form to Harry Osborn inThe Amazing Spider-Man#595 threatening Harry's life at first, but then showing Harry that she is pregnant. After this, Harry calls Norman Osborn to inform him that he will be accepting his invitation to work for theDark Avengers,which highly upsets Peter Parker. Harry's real reason for joining is to steal a cure for the serum to use on Lily and the baby so they can be healthy.
However, she pushes him away and reveals that it was all a ruse to make Harry becomeAmerican Sonso he could be used to die in a tragedy to engender sympathy and support for Norman. She also shows a new goblin form, with a decidedly more feminine figure, large full horns, and a green complexion. Lily reveals to Harry that Norman is actually the father of the baby.[256]She then goes to work for Norman's Dark Avengers in an unknown capacity.[257]After Norman'sfall from power,Lily is on the run from the law. It is also revealed that, due to the time of conception, there is a possibility that Harry is the father of her unborn child.[258]
In the "Origin of Species" storyline, Lily crashes into Harry Osborn's coffee shop and gives birth to a baby boy. Then a group of supervillains, hired byDoctor Octopus,attack her and kidnap the baby.[259]Spider-Man manages to rescue the baby, but he is stolen again byLizard.[260]Spider-Man manages to track him down, only to have the Lizard willingly give the baby back to Spider-Man because his tests to determine paternity prove that Norman is not the father. Word of her child's safety (but not the paternity) gets back to Lily, who is relieved. She runs away because she feels she is unfit to raise the child.[260]Spider-Man later tests Harry's blood, revealing that he is in fact the father, and leaves the child in his care.[261]
As part of theMarvel NOW!event, Menace returns showing her allegiance to theGoblin Kingas part of his underground Goblin Nation when it comes to preparing for the fight againstSuperior Spider-Man(Doctor Octopus' mind in Spider-Man's body). Menace is ordered to disarm the prison truck that capturedPhil Urich(the formerHobgoblin) before taking him to the underground and christening him as the Goblin Knight.[262]
Menace later kidnaps Carlie Cooper from Potter's Field after she finds that Doctor Octopus' grave is empty and brings her to the Goblin King. Menace then gives the Goblin King the journal revealing the secret about Superior Spider-Man.[263]During the Green Goblin's takeover of Manhattan, the real Spider-Man returns and defeats the Goblin Nation. In the process, he uses an antidote for the Goblin Serum on Menace, turning her back to a normal human.[264]

Lily's body drops into the river and can't be found by the police or Urich. Lily has survived the explosion and lives on the streets with no memory of who she was. She finds one ofRoderick Kingsley's (who was now in the business of reinventing people into superheroes) ads in a newspaper, and goes to his base.[265]Over the next month, Roderick Kingsley turns Lily into the Queen Cat, aBlack Cat-like heroine.

Midnight's Fireis afictionalsupervillainappearing inAmerican comic bookspublished byMarvel Comics.He first appeared inTheNew Warriors#2 (Aug. 1990), and was created byFabian NiciezaandMark Bagley.Midnight's Fire is a Mutant, his powers and his sisterSilhouette's powers are derived from their ability to tap into the extradimensional energy of theUniversal Wellspring,due to being descendants of the Dragon's Breath Cult which had based their cult around the base of one of the wells for centuries.
In 1966 during theVietnam War,an American recon patrol inCambodiastumbled upon the ancient, hiddentempleof a cult known as theDragon's Breath,which had remained hidden for centuries. It had been built upon a well-spring of raw, primal energy called the "Well of All Things". The inhabitants decided to breed a superior race that would one day unite with the ways of the west. They believed that this union would produce children capable of harnessing the power of the Well. The members of the recon patrol were to be the fathers of these children, one of these men was Andrew Chord the man who would become Midnight Fire's and Silhouette's father.[296]
Midnight's Fire and his sisterSilhouetteare the only children ofAndrew Chord,former guardian ofDwayne Taylor(Night Thrasher) and his wife Miyami (daughter ofTai). Silhouette, Midnight's Fire and Dwayne began an organized effort to take down various New York Citystreet gangs,[297]but their partnership ended when Silhouette was shot and paralyzed from the waist down. Midnight's Fire blamed Dwayne and became a cop killer and adruglordto lure Dwayne into a physical confrontation he could not possibly win.[297]
Diego Cassias, one of the other members of the recon patrol now calling himself theLeft Hand,stole the power of the Well from his own child, then gathered the other children of the pact including Midnight's Fire into a group called theFolding Circle.The Circle attempted to take control of the Well away from Tai. Members of the Circle, together with the New Warriors, managed to defeat Tai, but the Well was sealed, Cassias and Tai were apparently killed, and the surviving members of the Circle escaped in a stolen Avenger's Quinjet.[298]The remaining members of the Folding Circle later crashed inMadripoorand attempted to usurp the role of local druglord, which was then held by Aardwolf, aMutantcrimelord. They succeeded, but were later taken down by Night Thrasher and Silhouette.[299]
Midnight's Fire returned in the newest volume of 'New Warriors'. He has a face to face meeting with Night Thrasher, whom he still believes is Dwayne but is in fact Donyell, for the purposes of arranging an 'alliance'. Midnight's Fire leaves, telling Night Thrasher he would think about it. It's after the meeting that Midnight's Fire is working on behalf of another individual. He expresses displeasure at working with this entity.[300]
Midnight's Fire is aMutantlike his sisterSilhouette.His powers come from the Universal Wellspring.[301]

[edit]Mondo
[edit]Mondois the name of two characters which have appeared in the seriesGeneration X.The first Mondo was asuperherolater revealed to be acloneof thesupervillainMondo, who appeared years later. The first Mondo debuted inGeneration X#3.
Not much is known of theSamoanmutant called Mondo. He was once friends with Cordelia Frost,Emma Frost's younger sister.[324]In an attempt to make a bid for the position of White Queen of theHellfire Club,Cordelia had Mondo contained and handed him over to the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club. Cordelia's scheme backfired; the Hellfire Club kept Mondo but denied Cordelia membership. Cordelia went to Emma, headmistress of the Massachusetts Academy, for help and, soon after, Mondo was rescued byGeneration Xand subsequently accepted an invitation to join the school.[325]
Generation X later learned that the Mondo they had rescued wasn't the real Mondo but a clone, a plant-basedsimulacrumcreated byBlack Tom Cassidywho had infiltrated the Hellfire Club and rescued Mondo. After taking Mondo under his wing, Black Tom created acloneof the young mutant to infiltrate the Massachusetts Academy so that Black Tom could exact vengeance on his cousin,Banshee,who was the headmaster of the academy.[23]
As Banshee and Emma Frost battled Black Tom, the Mondo clone began hunting down the members of Generation X. As the Mondo clone was about to attackJubilee,he was shot dead by the anti-mutant militantBastion,chief operative ofOperation: Zero Tolerance.[23]
Later, the real Mondo appeared alongside Black Tom andJuggernaut.Completely loyal to Black Tom, the real Mondo battled the members of Generation X. Generation X attempted to talk to Mondo into not fighting, but Mondo laughed at them, reminding them that he has never met them before. Generation X and their teachers were able to defeat their opponents, but the trio still managed to escape.[326]
Mondo was confirmed to be alive and powered as he appeared with the rest of Generation X during Cyclops' Million Mutant March in Washington D.C.[327]
Mondo has recently appeared inX-Men Blueissue #8 alongside several other mutants in an effort to hunt down the young X-Men Blue team. This team's leader is Emma Frost, as she is part of the mutant sovereign state New Tian during Marvel's Secret Empire story arc.
Mondo is capable of taking on the properties of any organic or inorganic material with which he comes into contact. When using his power, Mondo is able to grow in mass with an assumed proportionate growth in strength to superhuman levels.Mondo can absorb matter into his body, gaining the mass, appearance, and other properties of the matter in question. This change will remain until Mondo's body "digests" the organic matter, which is then disintegrated. Mondo is also able to use his power to travel through organic matter, such as dirt, and can appear instantaneously in the immediate vicinity of where he entered the earth.

[edit]Moondark
[edit]Moondarkis a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
Moondark operated as a stage magician inSan Francisco,and whenSpider-Mancame to town he feared that Spider-Man would interfere with his plans. WhileJack Russellobserved his performance at a small bijou, Moondark mesmerized the whole audience including Jack (also known as theWerewolf). Moondark sent the Werewolf to ambush Spider-Man at the San Francisco Bay, where he was vacationing. As the two heroes fought, Spider-Man discovered and tackled Moondark, who was killed as he fell into the water.[340]
The Dark Beings whom Moondark worshipped claimed his soul but allowed him to return to Earth to claim other souls and buy back his own. He acted as a stage performer at a carnival in New York and created a Soul-Orb to claim the souls of the other carnival performers one by one. TheGhost Rider,Johnny Blaze, while working at the carnival also lost his soul to Moondark, which Moondark kept in a ring he wore. Spider-Man, as Peter Parker, went to the carnival and recognized the Ghost Rider who was now a part of Moondark's show. Parker returned as Spider-Man, but was captured by the Ghost Rider and the others under Moondark's control. When Moondark tried to steal Spider-Man's soul, he was able to destroy Moondark's ring and free the Ghost Rider, who destroyed the Soul-Orb with a burst of hellfire. Moondark's demonic master arrived to take the only soul available—Moondark's.[341]
Moondark was able to return to the living world, seeking to reclaim Blaze's valuable soul to bargain for his own. Lairing outside Las Vegas, he sent mutated vultures to attack Blaze and attract his attention. He tricked Ghost Rider into resuming human form, subdued him and bound him with magical bonds that prevented him from transforming.Hamilton Slade,then known as thePhantom Rider,was nearby and drawn to the magical conflict. When Moondark attacked Slade, his concentration weakened which allowed Blaze to break free and transform into Ghost Rider again. Ghost Rider destroyed the new Soul-Orb and Moondark fled to his other-dimensional realm.[342]
Moondark joined forces with theWater Wizardto get revenge on Blaze. Moondark enhanced the Water Wizard's power which allowed him to overpower Ghost Rider, and Moondark appeared and mocked the seemingly helpless Ghost Rider. Ghost Rider set Moondark's body on fire, and he fled back to his dimension.[343]

Alter ego | Alyssa Moy-Castle |
Species | Human |
Team affiliations | Fantastic Four Shadow Hunters |
Notable aliases | Unrevealed |
Abilities | Genius-level intellect |
Alyssa Moyis a fictional character appearing inAmerican comic bookspublished byMarvel Comics.A former lover and colleague ofReed Richards,Alyssa works as a scientist and has a genius-level intellect nearly equal to that of Reed. In some storylines, she acts as thede factomanager for theFantastic Four,responsible for generating their aliases and visual identities. She first appeared inFantastic Fourvol. 3 #5 (May 1998), created byChris ClaremontandSalvador Larroca.[405]
Alyssa Moy's rare appearances have been associated almost exclusively with the Fantastic Four. In one instance, she lends her hover car to help Reed andBen Grimmto retrieve an essential item which a villain has tossed miles away. In another adventure, Alyssa andFranklin Richardsface down the extra-dimensional threat of theWar Wolves,who pursue them through New York City. The wolves take on the form of civilians to try to entrap them. Alyssa witnesses the wolves killing at least one police officer, a sight from which she tries to shield Franklin. Alyssa and Franklin are soon rescued from the wolves by the Fantastic Four.[406][407]
Moy and the others also face the other-dimensional bounty squad ofGatecrasherand herTechnet.Everyone is transported to theOtherworldto face the entireCaptain Britain Corps,which is controlled byRoma.The incident has been triggered because Roma believed Franklin to be a threat to the multiverse. He uses his powers to save the group and theHuman Torchconvinces Roma that Franklin is better off with his family. Alyssa helps uncover mental manipulation that Reed has suffered. Her first clue to it is his failure to perform as expected during one of their long-running mental chess games. Alyssa also helps rescue the alternate-versionAlysande Stuartfrom her extra-dimensional captors. Alyssa later returns to solicit Reed's help with 'Nu-World', a man-made planet designed to take refugees from our seemingly doomed Earth.[408]
At some time in the far past, Reed Richards had proposed to Moy. Moy turned him down because she felt that they had a 'duty' to spread their genius-level genes as widely as possible rather than 'confine' themselves to each other. Reed did not reveal this to his wifeSueuntil some time after Moy had re-entered his life. According to the then-current Fantastic Four writer,Mark Millar,Moy will again play a role in the comic as he explores her relationship with Reed Richards in much more depth. Millar said: "It just always struck me that Reed would have had someone prior to Sue, since he's ten years older than she is. Also, Sue's so different from Reed and I felt the girl out there would be much more like he was, a female Reed Richards of sorts, and someone he'd have met at university. As luck would have it, Chris Claremont created exactly such a character and her name is Alyssa Moy. Her nickname in our story is Mrs. Fantastic and you'll see why when you read the first issue."[409]
During a reunion, Alyssa suggested to Reed that both of them had married the wrong people, since neither of their spouses could fully understand their work. However, Reed informed Alyssa that he married Sue because he loved her.[410]
The Alyssa of eight years into the future of 'Nu-World' is now a floating brain in a robotic body, still married to Ted Castle, helping to keep the planet from being destroyed. This world comes to interact with the modern Fantastic Four because time has become corrupted there. She is slain by her enemies.[411]
