Bitten by a radioactive spider and burdened with more responsibility than any teenager should carry, Peter Parker became the wisecracking wall-crawler known as Spider-Man. His spider-sense grants near-precognition in combat, and he can bench-press ten tons while dodging bullets with acrobatic flair. The smartest mouth in the Marvel Universe, backed by a genius-level intellect.

Born James Howlett but known to the world as Logan, Wolverine is the Canadian mutant who simply refuses to stay dead. His adamantium-laced skeleton is virtually indestructible, his healing factor can regenerate from a single cell, and his razor-sharp claws slice through anything short of Captain America's shield. Three centuries of combat experience make him the best there is at what he does—and what he does isn't very nice.
