Mary Jane Watson is not world- or even city-famous, but she has a good bit higher profile than the average teenaged girl in New York City. She has done modeling work - mostly catalogs and small fashion shows. She also has an ongoing blog, including an ongoing video segment (vlog), with news stories that don't get school approval but she wants to cover anyway. (And yes, a few of them are about that wacky wall-crawler, Spider-Man.) She is also pretty much the face of the Midtown High journalism department, including the school television station (and the voice of the school radio station's news segment). She hasn't hit the Big Time (tm) yet. But there are plenty of folks who have noticed, and it could potentially be 'any day now'. Seriously. In addition, Mary Jane now has an after-school and summer job working as a receptionist and all-around 'gal friday' for Defenders For Hire Inc., the private detective firm.
Say the name 'Red Sonja', and honestly most every person on Earth will simply look at you blankly. She has no media profile, and pretty much doesn't exist. ON THE OTHER HAND, if you run a Google search for 'hot redhead in armor bikini', your browser will asplode. Please, turn on Safe Search first; the fan art is dangerous. Apparently, some woman has been spotted a few times in the last year dealing with various 'situations'. The first was some cretin who tried to take hostage all the patrons of the Museum of Natural History, including a huge high school field trip group, while doing some kind of freaky magic thing. She kicked his arse, quite demonstrably, while wearing what can charitably be called a 'scale mail bikini' and wielding a sword that some swear they saw in one of the museum display cases before this incident began. She has since been seen a few different times around the city's burroughs, dealing with a street gang, some muggers, and a carjacker. Obviously, no one has ever gotten her name, and she doesn't do interviews. But she most definitely isn't shy.
