12 unusual comicbook characters and teams marvel should adapt.

12 unusual comicbook characters and teams marvel should adapt.

Marvel studios has touched the biggest properties of the comics so far. But there are many comic book properties they have not touched yet. This list is about unusual characters who deserve a appearance.

Please excuse my horrific grammar. I will edit if needed. Also this list will not include the fantastic 4 or xmen, as its obvious they will get a film

Marvel has touched the majority of the big boys of marvel. The Avengers, Spiderman, Iron man and Thor have all been done well. Not only that, it has also touched smaller characters, from A listers like daredevil, to b listers like the iron fist and Luke cage, and the inhuman's and then a few b- negative listers like agent carter AND DONE THEM GREAT. 

However this list is more about the smaller , and shot off , groups and characters, at least I, believe would work on film. 

 

12. The Initiative



After the evens of civil war, iron man and Reed Richards came up with a solution to make people safe. The idea was to train an army of superheroes and launch a team in every single state in America. These state teams had a relation with the state it’s protecting, like Texas has a cowboy looking team for instance. These teams also had an avenger leading them, with iron man leading the whole initiative they were cantered in camp Hammond and trained squads of superheroes until the secret invasion and dark reign.

This would be a useful movie, as it shows hundreds of heroes in different parts of counties; it offers new characters, and raises questions of security.  Not to mention is opens super hero storylines like KIA. So are basically avengers unlimited

11. She-Hulk



The female cousin to the hulk, Jennifer Walters received a blood transfusion from Bruce to save her life. This caused her to become She-Hulk. She-Hulk is a funny character, at one point akin to deadpool and got into many wack adventures comicwise. She also appeared in several video games and cartoons.

This is a character that would suit a TV show. Not only does she not require cgi, and her powers are not earth shaking like the hulk, she is also a lawyer, mainly for superheroes, which could add a good parallel to Matt Murdock. She is also funny and light-hearted, which offers something a little different from the Netflix shows.
 

10. The West Coast Avengers.


The West Coast Avengers formed when Hawkeye and vision wished to expand the avengers influence. They set up in California and fought villains like Graviton. The consisted off but not limited to, Scarlet witch, Hawkeye, War machine, Hercules, Namor, Mockingbird, Moon Knight and even the Silver Surfer. 

This would interesting, as it would show a team different to the normal avengers, without Cap or Iron man or Thor or widow. It would other characters to shine. I would even suggest making a TV show of the west coast avengers, perhaps a 6 episode arc. A risky move to be fair, but I believe it to be possible.

9. MoonKnight


This needs little introduction, as many fans want a good MoonKnight. An Egyption esq hero and one of there more mystical characters, he would be the prime use for a tv show, or possibly a movie. He is a ruthless hero, one of which that can blend with the darkness of the alley ways and the mystiacal nature of other worlds.

8. Hercules 



7. Hercules

Hercules is the demigod of Zeus and one of the lighter funnier heroes of marvel. He was first introduced battling Thor and since then has become a good counterpart to him. Carrying his mace and super strength he is one of the easier characters to do, as he does not require cgi. 

He does not require cgi and as a bonus would introduce the Greek gods. Marvel could use this as Asgard was destroyed and it is unlikely we will see the 9....8 realms for a while. Oh yes indeed, and he would also introduce his brother Ares, a much different version to dc's Ares.

The Savage land


Where Thor is the god of thunder, Hercules is god of plunder!! (Not true but I felt like saying it.)

6. The Young Avengers

The young avengers were formed by iron lad, running from the future and kang. It Consists of many great characters that need to be on screen like Kate Bishop, Hulking and Wiccan and Stature. 

Not much to say here.

5. The Thunderbolts.



The ThunderBolts are a team of villains secured by the goverment, similery to suicide squad (so they should probably change it up so it isnt so similer). In my mind it consist of Zemo, Whiplash, Ghost, MockingBird, Vulture, Juggernaut and possilby deadpool or Enchantress.

This would make a great crime, bank robbery film and give a evil team not just run by the goverment. It would also flesh out Zemo, one of the more tragic characters of marvel.

4. Monster Island


Monsters is something marvel lacks. In the comics there is an island known as monster island or isle, hiding many a beast. Such as fing fan foom, Gragg, Gluto and the two headed thing, and many many more. 

This would allow heroes vs kaiju. This is a risky move,  having two weird island's (i suppose they could stick these monsters on the savage land) AND warner bros has a monster island, named skull island. 

3. Blade


Blade the vampire hunter. This would be prime for a tv show, and it would introduce more supernatural villains. I would also suggest letting this headstrong a section of supernatural characters, such as ghost rider and mordu. 

2. The Masters of Evil



While there name is ludicrous (they can not mention there name though and refer to themselves as the masters) Marvel will eventually need an evil team to battle the avengers. I would suggest this after infinity war, before the secret invasion, as we would be alien tired out. 

1. Man Thing.




A fan favorite and Cthulhu esq tragic character. He would be a more outlandish character to introduce.
