Bartholomew Jones is in his late 30s, with a shock of red hair that has been steadily falling out over the last few years. A large, muscular man, he was an all-star football player until an injury in college forced him off the team. With his knee mangled, he is now forced to wear a brace and walk with the aid of a cane. He is a photojournalist who lives in New York with his dog, Buddy. Bart is Angel's world and the other way around as well.

Elizabeth Cross mother
Elizabeth Cross, divorced from Bart since Angel was 1, remains a friendly and caring relationship with her ex-husband, to the point where she visits frequently when she travels. Also in her late 30s, a slender, blond woman, she's a lawyer who specializes in minority rights related cases – including mutant rights. She was caught up in the Seattle riots but managed to come out unharmed. While she doesn't see her daughter as often as Bart does, they have a warm and loving relationship and share frequent phone calls and emails.
