Marvel’s Best Super-Powered Critters: Super-Pets That Decimate The Bad Guys

Starting out as a normal Japanese macaque, Hit-Monkey taught himself martial arts and how to use a gun after his clan took in an ailing assassin. Soon, other men with guns came looking for the near-dead assassin, hoping to finish the job. When they found him living with a clan of monkeys, they decided to murder the primates along with the assassin.

The only survivor was Hit-Monkey, who decided to use his newfound skills to avenge his clan. One of the only animal heroes—or, in this case, antiheroes—in the Marvel universe not to end up as someone’s pet, Hit Monkey’s fighting abilities are so strong he’s stood toe to toe with Bullseye—Earth 616’s most dangerous marksman—and lived to tell about it.
