What the Hulk has in strength, the Leader has in brains. Hulk's arch nemesis was affected by the same Gamma radiation that transformed Bruce Banner; but, instead of Hulk-ified muscles, the Leader got a Hulk-ified head. He's smart, sinister, and obsessed with destroying the Hulk!
Thena, a second generation Eternal, is the eldest daughter of Zuras, leader of the Eternals of Earth, and Cybele, and although she has lived for more than 4,000 years, she is still considered a young woman by Eternal standards.
The radiation that mutated Reed Richards, Sue Storm and Johnny Storm into superhuman beings had also mutated Ben Grimm, transforming him into a grotesque, rock-hided strongman dubbed the Thing.

As the Norse God of thunder and lightning, Thor wields one of the greatest weapons ever made, the enchanted hammer Mjolnir. While others have described Thor as an over-muscled, oafish imbecile, he's quite smart and compassionate. He's self-assured, and he would never, ever stop fighting for a worthwhile cause.
When the Odinson lost his ability to wield Mjolnir, the role of Thor, God of Thunder, was left unoccupied…albeit for a short time. A mysterious female figure picked up the hammer with ease, changing the inscription to fit her status as the Goddess of Thunder.
Thor is the Asgardian Prince of Thunder, the son of Odin, and the realm's mightiest warrior. He loves the thrill of battle and is always eager to show off his power to the other Avengers, especially the Hulk. Thor's legendary Uru hammer, Mjolnir, gives him the power to control thunder and the ability to fly. He's found a new home on Earth and will defend it as his own... even if he doesn't understand its sayings and customs.
He claims he is the legendary Norse thunder deity Thor, sent to Earth by his father Odin, but official records say he is Thorlief Golmen, who stole his scientist brother Gunnar Golmen's super-soldier technology after suffering a nervous breakdown.

After a battle with Onslaught left the world without the majority of the heroes that made it feel safe, Baron Zemo devised a plan like no other in order to rule the world. Zemo gathered Beetle, Fixer, Goliath, Moonstone, and Screaming Mimi, all former members of the Masters of Evil, together to disguise themselves as a new heroic team in order to take advantage of the missing heroes and gain the trust of the authorities and public in general.
Thundra was quite possibly her world's greatest female specimens, and as she won countless battles against the men, she was revered as the Sisterhood's greatest hero.
A champion Olympic swimmer, Todd Arliss earned nearly half million dollars in advances for public exhibitions, but his dreams came crashing down around him when he injured his back and legs while rescuing a man who had fallen overboard from a private craft, sending Arliss into the arms of Dr. Lemuel Dorcas, who used his "morphotron," which could imprint the genetic pattern of an animal onto a human, turning Arliss into a superhuman, amphibious creature.
