Mary Jane Watson, Daily Bugle Reporter

The Mary Jane of Insomniac’s take on Spidey lore picks up Peter’s prior career in journalism—having previously broken up with him by the start of the original game, she’s forged a successful career as an investigative reporter at the Daily Bugle. Working under the Bugle’s Editor in Chief, Robbie Robertson, M.J. gets the inside scoop on the big stories of the original game, working alongside Peter as Spider-Man even as they navigate their distanced relationship. The two rekindle their romance by the end of Marvel’s Spider-Man, however, taking a working vacation together so M.J. can write a book about Symkaria—but she’s back working at the Bugle by the time of the sequel.
