Alicia Masters

Alicia Reiss Masters is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. She is usually depicted as a supporting character to the superheroes the Fantastic Four and Silver Surfer. Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, she first appeared in The Fantastic Four #8 (Nov 1962).
Alicia is a blind sculptor who is able to create incredibly lifelike representations of real people by touch and memory alone; her sculptures of the Fantastic Four and other superheroes are frequently depicted. A caring, sensitive character, she has been a romantic interest and confidante of The Thing, a member of the Fantastic Four who is frequently ashamed of his monstrous appearance. She has also helped explain human life and emotion to the alien Silver Surfer. Actress Kat Green played her in the unreleased The Fantastic Four film from 1994, and then Kerry Washington portrayed her in the 2005 film Fantastic Four and the 2007 sequel Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.

Alicia met Ben as he was moping at a nearby bar in New York, where the bartender recognized him despite his appearance, Alicia offered to have a drink with him and to put them on her tab. Being she was blind, she noticed/felt how Ben was different and she assured it's not always a bad thing. Ben soon discovered her arts and crafts shop and she even did a large model of him! She did a little makeover of him, but Ben stormed away as bystanders mocked his rocky appearance. Fortunately, after Victor was frozen, Ben met her at the cruise honoring the heroes. They'd been close ever since.
She hadn't played many roles, other than being The Thing's moral supporter and Sue's close friend. She even attended hers and Reed's wedding, then Ben saved her as the helicopter was collapsing by Norrin's radiation. She was still invited to the Chinese wedding with Ben, and she was left with Frankie while the team went to Italy and deal with the Adriatic sinking.
She made a minor appearance wishing Ben luck before they looked for Shalla-Bal and stayed with Frankie. To Terri, she reminds her of Stevie Wonder, as he's also black, blind, and into the arts, in this case of music than crafts.
== Trivia ==
* As stated, Alicia does remind Ikran of Stevie Wonder, a blind, black artist into the arts, though she was more into sculpturing than music. Like Ben, Reed, and Myers, Alicia became an instant favorite to her since the 2005 film. So much so that she decided to pick a fan song for her and Ben, No One by, coincidentally, Alicia Keys!
