10 Marvel’s Forgotten Gems Deserve a Second Chance

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is home to a vast array of iconic characters, each with their own unique personalities and abilities. However, amidst the sea of well-known heroes and villains, there are several underrated gems that have failed to receive the attention they deserve. One such character is Luis, the lovable and charismatic friend of Scott Lang from the Ant-Man franchise. After Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, Luis seemed to fade into the background, a victim of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s tendency to overlook characters who aren’t as prominent.

Another character who deserves more recognition is Cosmo the Spacedog, the canine companion of the Guardians of the Galaxy. With her incredible powers and adorable personality, Cosmo has the potential to become a fan favorite, but is currently relegated to comedic relief in the holiday special. Mac Gargan, also known as Scorpion, was introduced in Spider-Man: Homecoming as a formidable villain, but his potential was never fully realized. Similarly, Daisy Johnson, also known as Quake, a protagonist in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., has unique powers that deserve to be explored further.

Lady Sif, a warrior from the Thor franchise, is another character who has been largely forgotten. After Thor: Ragnarok, she was relegated to the sidelines, and her fate was almost left to speculation after Thor: Love and Thunder. Xu Xialing, the sister of Shang-Chi, has leadership potential that has yet to be fully explored. Ghost Rider, a character from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., was a highlight of the show’s run, despite being a relatively new addition to the Marvel pantheon. His potential as a character was undeniable, but he too has been forgotten in recent years.

Danny Rand, also known as Iron Fist, was another character who failed to impress in his Netflix series. Despite his unique abilities and rich backstory, he was met with largely negative reviews. Man-Thing, a key character in Werewolf By Night, has fallen into obscurity despite being a refreshing addition to the cinematic universe. Finally, Werewolf By Night himself, a character with supernatural abilities, showed great promise in his initial release, but has since gone silent.

These characters, while not as well-known as Spider-Man or Iron Man, have their own unique charms and deserve more recognition in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Rather than being forgotten or overlooked, they deserve a chance to shine and bring their unique perspectives to the forefront. The article concludes by highlighting the importance of giving these underrated characters a second chance to prove themselves, and not forgetting the potential they bring to the cinematic universe.
