- Ben Reilly:
- A retired superhero with the powers of Spider-Man who is too old and broken, both figuratively and literally, to suit up the way he used to. Instead, he takes low-level PI cases and stays out of the ones that involve high-profile names, like that of the Mayor. Through flashbacks, we find out about his past heroics, and past failures, that led him to this point. He is charming, but weathered, and the pilot does an excellent job of setting him up for a good character arc moving forward.
- Yuri Watanabe:
- A stage singer with unknown ties to crime organizations in New York City, including that of the mayor. Her character exists entirely through the eyes of Ben Reilly in the pilot, but there is an interesting larger story set up for her in the pages.
- Flint Marko, aka Sandman:
- A hired goon working for Yuri, but he has an unknown condition that causes him to turn into the Sandman. When he switches between identities, he has no memories of what the alter ego did while in control. It seems a decent amount of the story will revolve around him, and there is a lot of potential for this character to be a fan-favorite.
- Robbie Robertson:
- A reporter and friend of Ben Reilly's. Not a lot of depth to the character in the pilot but has fan-favorite potential written all over him.
- Mayor Delgado:
- A corrupt politician whose motivations and past are entirely unknown. The character exists as a setup for future episodes, likely as the main villain.
- Silvermane:
- An ageing crime boss whose plans to retire are thrown out the window after his mansion is burned down. It appears that he will be one of the other major antagonists of the series.
- Janet:
- Ben Reilly's secretary/second-in-command. Think Joan from Mad Men.
- Edward Addison:
- A man who can catch himself on fire with no harm to his body, and one of the Macguffins for the plot.
- Delgado:
- Another PI that has a good working relationship with Ben Reilly.
