The members of KISS. From left to right: The Catman, The Spaceman (or Space Ace), The Demon, and The Starchild.
For detailed information about this series, see: KISS Wiki
KISS is a fictional rock band consisting of The Starchild (the vocalist/guitarist, portrayed by Paul Stanley), The Demon (the bassist/vocalist, portrayed by Gene Simmons), the Space Ace (the lead guitarist/vocalist, portrayed by Ace Frehley), and The Catman (the drummer/vocalist, portrayed by Peter Criss). Although these are the best known portrayals of the characters, over the years different people have played the personas making up KISS.
While the group made "real-world" appearances, performing actual concerts, they are still considered fictional, as the members have been best known under the fictional personas, and the group has a fictional backstory.
