Notes:

Judas Traveller was introduced as a god-like figure, allegedly centuries old, who was dedicated to the study of good vs. evil for vague but portentious reasons. He was comparable to DC's Phantom Stranger in many ways and, indeed, hinted at literally being Judas Iscariot. However, Amazing Spider-Man #418 eventually revealed that he was merely a mutant, similar to Mastermind, whose amazing feats were the result of illusions. His powers had influenced his own sanity, causing him to believe his own illusions and creating a God Complex in his mind.
