Mystic Physician
The Mystic Doctor is the protector of the supernatural in Mexico, within the Universe 616. The Mystic Doctor is a sorcerer who possesses magical powers of outstanding level. The magician, created by Jason Aaron and Chris Bachalo, has fought against a group of Inquisitors of the Empirikul, first in the Lacandon Jungle, and later in Machu Pichu.
He came to the call of Doctor Strange when thousands of supreme sorcerers of different dimensions died mysteriously.
Arachnid
Junior is the son of a famous fighter named the Arachnid, who died after being injured by a work colleague known as The Scorpion.
This fact led the young man to take the name of his father’s fighter to protect Mexico City and its inhabitants. Arachnid debuted in the pages of Spider-Verse Vol. 2
Red Locust
This character goes beyond a simple tribute by Mark Waid and Humberto Ramos to Roberto Gómez Bolaños.
Fernanda Ramírez, her alter ego, is the answer to a reality where migration has gained significant importance. Red Locust is a vigilante who seeks to protect Mexican tribes and vulnerable travelers, which she can do thanks to a special armor inherited from her ancestors.
Slaughter
One of the members of the group The Merc For Money, and an ally of Deadpool did not always choose the path of violence.
This began when a religious in Mexico took the confession of the Mercenary Bocazas, which left him impressed to seek to “fix” Mexico, and thus seek to end Jade Skull, a dangerous mafia boss, whom he was able to eliminate, which led him to emigrate to the United States to join Deadpool and his peculiar group of mercenaries.
Spider-man 2099
In the year 2099, the Mexican-American scientist Miguel O’Hara seeks to recreate the powers of the Spider-Man from the heroic era, but after a system failure, he became 50% spider and 50% human.
Now that he knows that his company, Alchemax, was part of his accident, Miguel will do everything possible to defeat Tyler Stone and his company, adopting the name of Spider-Man.
