Ginormica aka Susan Murphy
Radiates pure energy, giving her enormous strength and size. Impervious to nuclear and atomic forces.
Just before her wedding, she was hit by a meteor filled with a strange substance that mutated her DNA, causing her to grow at the altar into a 49 foot 11 inch tall woman.
2008
With the power of 10,000 women, she can wreck an entire city block without breaking a nail.
On the day she was supposed to marry local weatherman Derek Dietl, Susan Murphy is hit by a meteor from outerspace. This somewhat meek and unassertive small town girl is suddenly five stories tall and unimaginably strong. Despite her size and strength, she doesn't see herself as a monster, and desperately wants to return to her previously uneventful life. But as she's thrust into a series of extraordinary circumstances with the other monsters, she comes to realize that the true source of her power is the strength of her character.

Insectosaurus
Super-sized with the ability to shoot silk out of his nostrils.
Transformed by nuclear radiation from a one inch grub to a 350 foot monster with a taste for Japanese cities.
1969
Can chew and stomp his way through any city.
Nuclear radiation turned a baby grub into a 350-foot-tall monster, who immediately laid waste to Tokyo. He didn't mean to be so destructive, he was actually just using the skyscrapers to teeth. He speaks in unintelligible roars which only his good friend The Missing Link can understand. With his massive size and the ability to shoot silk from his nostrils, he's a formidable grub.
He is easily distracted or hypnotized by bright and
colorful lights.
The Missing Link
Super strong, agile amphibian with a weakness for the ladies.
A frozen fish-ape hybrid thawed out by scientists 20,000 years after the Ice Age.
1961
Master of the monster smackdown...or at least he was 30 years ago.
Half-ape, half-fish, The Missing Link is the missing link between prehistoric man and our undersea ancestors. The ancient fish man was in the process of evolving - basically from his lagoon to the shore - when he was hit smack by the Ice Age and instantaneously frozen. Eons later, he was thawed and tried to return to his lagoon, unfortunately it was now a resort and he had no choice but to terrorize the patrons. After 50 years in a secret military prison, he's still full of macho bravado but he soon discovers he's seriously out of shape.
He's proud of his status as a survivor, and proud of his monsterness.
He's a jock who's gone to seed; a little out of shape, but oblivious to it.
He can swim through any liquid at high-speed, and breathe underwater.
Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D.
The greatest mind on the planet protected by an indestructible exoskeleton.
When his teleportation device backfired, he ended up with the head of a cockroach and the world domination plans of a maniacal genius.
1952
Can invent anything from a pile of garbage... as long as he doesn't eat it first.
During an experiment intended to endow humans with the genetic longevity of a cockroach, a teleportation device malfunctions (as they often do). Luckily, the brain of the ingenious, if slightly mad scientist is left intact, but sadly, inside the head of a giant cockroach. Dr. Cockroach, Ph. D., is a man/cockroach of sophistication and charm, if easily distracted by rotting food. He is capable of building ingenious things. Sadly, like his teleportation device, they usually have a few unfortunate side effects.
He can't help experimenting with whatever is available.
He's the most human of the monsters, having once been one.
He accepts his role as a mad scientist.
B.O.B. - Bicarbonate Ostylezene Benzoate
Indestructible gelatinous mass.
Spontaneously created by the accidental mixture of genetically altered tomato and a ranch-flavored dessert topping.
1958
Mindless obliteration an insatiable appetite.
The amorphous and semi-opaque B.O.B. is the resulting cross between a genetically-altered tomato with a chemically-altered, ranch-flavored dessert topping. He is an indestructible gelatinous guy with an insatiable appetite. BOB might not have a brain - literally, he has no brain - but he is the heart of the team, even though, technically he doesn't have a heart either. He may not be the brightest monster around but in the end it's BOB who has the simplest and smartest plan.
BOB has no brain, therefore no filter. Whatever he thinks is said immediately.
He doesn't have an agenda, so is easily swayed. This also makes him somewhat empathetic.
He is the most benign of the monsters as he's not really smart enough to be downright evil. On the other hand, he can't really tell right from wrong.
Gallaxhar
Diabolic alien mastermind.
From the far reaches of outer space, he's bent on ruling our universe.
2009
Can ruin your whole day. Forever.

General W.R. Monger
Grit, grizzle, and a jetpack
Originally from Danville, VA, he graduated from West Point with a Bachelor of Science and a minor in Monster Capture.
1950
With eight wars and three missle crises under his belt, he's ready for anything, be it monster or alien.
For gruff, grizzled General Monger, actions speak louder than words, but an all-out, full-weapon assault speaks loudest of all. He considers the monsters in captivity beyond hope, but when Gallaxhar's robot defeats every form of defense the country has, he is left with little choice but to release them and hope for the best. Eventually, the monsters earn his respect, and he, theirs.

President Hathaway
Shaking hands and kissing babies.
The good ol' U.S. of A.
2004
Has a monster fighting force at his command.
Serious, dignified and only somewhat dense, The President does not want to go down in history as the president in office when the world came to an end. So he quickly agrees when General Monger's plan to have monsters fight the aliens. If they win, he'll look like a genius, and if they lose... well no one will miss them.
