Spider-Woman

(Proto-Jessica Drew) (Profile #1 - Goodwin version)

The very first take on Spider-Woman (not yet called Jessica Drew), by Goodwin. It's rather different from what she later become, as the retcons start by her very next appearance. As of December of 2020, this profile has received polishing. Plus icky crawly too many legs Mutants & Masterminds TTRPG stats.

alttext

Paul Lorenze the beast

A guy turned into an evil ape during a 1951 horror anthology comic book story. Obscure, but typical of the comics of the era. As of September of 2020, we painted some M&M stats on. Using a primatic spray spell, see ?

alttext

Warden Lieutenant Kell ap Morgan

A quasi-Welsh master archer and ranger, seconded by a big warhound. Kell appears in David Gaider's Dragon Age: The Calling prequel novel.

alttext

Mama Odie

The all-singing, all-dancing aged voodoo queen of the bayou in Disney's The Frog and the Princess. Good creole witch.

alttext

Hantu

Weretigress criminal Indonesian revenant forced to fight in a low-fantasy dismal world. Inspired by the niche Din's Curse video game, because I was playing that instead of working.

alttext

Dragonfly

(Ani-Men) (Veronica Dultry)

The oddest member of Marvel Comics' Ani-Men, who's had a cryptic and inexplicable career. But heh, I'm sure this article will get some positive buzz.

alttext

Bird-Man

(Achille DiBacco)

Originally one of those goofy, minor Ani-Men thugs from Marvel Comics. Later became an animalistic demonic undead no-goodnik, because it was a Tuesday.

alttext

Bird-Man

(Ani-Men)

Light winged power armour and a pistol, just as real birds do. Mercenary, obscure villain. As of April of 2020, this profile was entirely rewritten.

alttext

Frog-Man

(Ani-Men)

An obscure Silver Age super-villain who hops. Ani-Men member. As of April of 2020, this profile was entirely rewritten.

alttext

Cat-Man

(Ani-Men)

Silver Age mob enforcer in cat-themed light power armour. As of March of 2020, this profile was redone from tail to whiskers as we overhaul our Ani-Men material.

alttext

Ape-Man

(Ani-Men)

Silver Age villainous boxer with strength-enhancing exo. Part of a handy but goofy small team of mercenaries, the Ani-Men. As of March of 2020, this small profile was entirely redone. We finally really did it ! We maniacs ! We blew it up !

alttext

Ani-Men

(a.k.a. the Unholy Three)

A minor, odd-looking, oddly enduring team of minor Marvel malefactors.

alttext

Tigra the were-woman

(Greer Nelson profile #2)

Our second profile for Marvel Comics heroine Greer Nelson, depicting her early days as Tigra. During those she was a bit different than in later depictions. As of December of 2019 the illustrations were redone in HD. The text also had its fur brushed, though it was reading better than I remembered.

alttext

Owl

(Leland Owlsley) (Profile #1 - 1964-1975)

One of Daredevil's oldest foes, and a persistent presence in the Marvel Universe underworld. As of November of 2019, this entry is being entirely redone as a four-parter.

alttext

Beast-Man

One of the earliest enemies of He-Man in those 1980s Masters of the Universe cartoons.

alttext

Raccoon

The half-human mobster Raccoon is also an ally of the Nocturnals, as seen in Dan Brereton's painted comics. And thus our Nocturnals writeups arc ends. It's a bit sad.

alttext

Mer-Man

(He-Man and the Masters of the Universe)

One of the recurrent jobber baddies in the 1980s He-Man and the Masters of the Universe cartoons.

alttext

Battle-Cat

The big green tiger from He-man and the Masters of the Universe cartoons.

alttext

Man-Ape

(M'Baku) (Part 1.1)

A traditional -- and remarkably dangerous -- enemy of the Black Panther. This profile is filled with stuff about Wakandan history and politics, as M'Baku is a much much more interesting character than most people think. Only a fool underestimates the White Gorilla !

alttext

Mrs. Gradenko

A strange werebear, and a Russian special operative. Seen in Suicide Squad. As of January of 2019, this profile has been overhauled and got overbearing M&M stats.

alttext

Shrew

(Marilyn Maycroft)

The Hell's Belles are a convenient mercenary quartet with minor powers. They fought X-Factor that one time. Shrew left the team, though. As of January of 2019, this profile has been overhauled and received furry M&M stats. Which concludes the upgrade for the Hell's Belles.

alttext

Blanka

(Tom's profile)

Tom's take on this classic Street Fighter hard-fighting mutated man-beast. As of September of 2018, this profile was revisado e melhorado.

alttext

Willard Stiles

(2003 Willard movie)

The dysfunctional rats whisperer played by Crispin Glover in the remake of the 1971/72 originals. Not suggested for musophobic readers, I reckon.

alttext

Tagak the Leopard Lord

The Lord of Leopards stops for no one!

A not-unjustly forgotten Daredevil ally from another dimension. Blind martial artist who sees through his pet leopard. As of August of 2018, this profile was overhauled and received spot-on M&M stats.

alttext

Marine Marauder I

Verrrry minor 1977 Aquaman villain. This guy can command sea life. As of July of 2018, this profile now has HD illustrations and piscine M&M stats.

alttext

The People

A species of mutant sapient saurids that interacted with Ms. Marvel (Danvers) and the X-Men. As of April of 2018, this entry had its illustrations overhauled, its texts reviewed, and then with cold-blooded determination we added M&M stats.

alttext

Snowbird aka Harfang

(Classic Alpha Flight) (Part #1)

The classic/early version of Snowbird from Alpha Flight, thoroughly explored. Mush mush ! As of April of 2018, this profile has its illustrations redone and was split into two parts, since it was a few hundred words above our "read in one sitting" threshold.

alttext

Inheritor from Beyond

A super-cockroach who's evil and fights the Hulk to a standstill, as you do. As of April of 2018, this entry had its illustrations overhauled and received M&M stats reinforced with radioactive chitin.

alttext

Pacer

(Carlos da Silva)

An obscure Marvel Comics UK character, from the short-lived Gene Dogs series. Enhanced soldier with spliced-in canine genes and a big gun, works with his team for a S.H.I.E.L.D.-like outfit. As of March of 2018, this profile has been dusted off and given sharp-nosed M&M stats. Which concludes our overhaul for this useful, but not spectacular, little team.

alttext

Howitzer

(Shaka)

Reptilian super-soldier seen in Gene Dogs during the 1990s. As of February of 2018, this profile received armoured, dinosaurian M&M stats.
