Ben Grimm – Usually covered in orange rock as the Thing, the former test pilot discovers he can revert to his former self on Battleworld – but also that his fellow heroes might need the Thing more than Ben Grimm!

Beyonder – One of the most powerful beings in all of reality, the creation of Molecule Man led the Beyonder into create Battleworld and populate it with the greatest heroes and villains of the modern age!

Beyonder (Energy Form) – Even the mighty Galactus understood the true power of the Beyonder – a being so powerful it could re-write the laws of physics with a mere thought and warp reality on a whim!

Captain Marvel – Drafted into the Beyonder’s games along with several other Earth heroes, Monica Rambeau would later change her super hero moniker to Photon and Pulsar.

Captain Marvel (Energy Form) – Capable of manipulating almost limitless amounts of energy, Monica Rambeau is able to convert her entire body into an invulnerable energy form and even surviving the emptiness of space.

dr-doom-150x150molecule-man-150x150

Dr Doom – The brilliantly evil Victor Von Doom manages to steal a portion of the Beyonder’s power and nearly conquers all of existence before being tricked into defeat once again.

Molecule Man – One of the most powerful villains most of the heroes had ever faced, Molecule Man was empowered by the Beyonder’s own energy – leaving him capable of controlling all matter and energy down to the last Molecule!

spider-woman-150x150storm-150x150symbiote-bond-spider-man1-150x150

Spider-Woman – A new hero with little experience fighting evil, Julia Carpenter meets many fellow heroes for the first time during Secret Wars – including her namesake Spider-Man!

Storm – One of the most powerful X-Men, Storm sported her new punk style complete with mohawk and leather but still managed to hold her own against almost unbeatable odds.

Symbiote Bond Spider-Man – Thinking it was a costume-making machine, Spider-Man activates unknown alien technology aboard Battleworld – resulting in the birth of the symbiotic creature later known as Venom!
