[Spartaculous]

This might be helpful to guessers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Marvel_Comics_superhero_debuts#1960s

[Aristocrat]

Clarification: does the QM consider mutants (X-Men) to be human? Canonically I think the answer is yes but figured it was worth asking…

Assuming the answer is yes,

Is the character either 1) primarily associated with the X-Men franchise, 2) female, or 3) both?

[damo666]

Fres guess: Bruce Banner

[DreamTrawler]

Kinda funny how the “real or fictional political officeholder/monarch” question actually rules out a lot of possibilities like Black Panther/Namor/Dr Doom/Magneto.

[Hominidae]

Fres guess: Bruce Banner

I would not be surprised if this is it.

Kinda funny how the “real or fictional political officeholder/monarch” question actually rules out a lot of possibilities like Black Panther/Namor/Dr Doom/Magneto.

I didn't think of this when I made the guess, but if Spider-Man had been correct the "arachnid" part of my question would have been funny in hindsight.

Assuming the answer is yes,

Is the character either 1) primarily associated with the X-Men franchise, 2) female, or 3) both?

To the clarification, yes.
To the question, no, none of those.

My definition of fictional creatures being "human" is that they have to biologically be mostly human as far as DNA and such is concerned. For example, Bruce Banner would be a yes, Peter Quill (half-celestial) would be a pass and Vision would be a no (to a question 'is this entity human').

Fres guess: Bruce Banner

No.
