While this solve out really well for some characters whose story greatly benefited from their prison term on the big screen , other adaptation of classic laughable characters might have left them worse off than they were in their original mass medium . So which comic fibre were lifted up by the MCU , and which were left in worse shape after their adaptation ?
Better: Ned Leeds
One of the skilful example of the MCU glow - up is Ned Leeds ( played by Jacob Batalon ) who first appeared in 2017’sSpider - world : Homecomingas Peter Parker ’s LEGO - fanatic best friend , confidant , andSpider - Man ’s confide guy - in - the - chairwoman .
The character is more similar to the Ganke Lee case from Miles Morales ' world , though his name references a Daily Bugle newsperson in Peter Parker ’s life who was marital to Betty Brant . Leeds was arrange up as theHobgoblinbefore he was remove by the soldier of fortune known as the Foreigner , so the MCU ’s version is well ahead of the game so far .
Worse: Jasper Sitwell
The case of Jasper Sitwell somewhat stretches the definition of bad , as both versions of Sitwell died in the line of duty , though the MCU ’s version ( play by Maximilliano Hernandez ) was actually a faithless fellow member of Hydra .
Sitwell in the comic strip was a fast assistant toNick Furyanddedicated S.H.I.E.L.D. agentwho would have kick the bucket before betraying his ally , and did so in the strip . And while the comics version of Sitwell was repair as a zombie , which could be consider worse than death as a traitor , he is still a loyal , albeit somewhat reasonless , Agent of S.T.A.K.E.
Better: Hawkeye
While the MCU ’s Hawkeye ( play by Jeremy Renner ) doubtless went through a saturnine geological period after Thanos erased half the population of the universe and all of Clint Barton ’s family , he still get along out comfortably off than other comic version of the part .
The mainstream comic version of Hawkeye has never had a family beyond the Avengers and is n’t always cognize as the happiest guy around , and the Ultimate Universe rendering of the eccentric had his own kin until they were savagely slay by the Ultimate interlingual rendition ofBlack Widow .
Worse: Janet Van Dyne
When the persona ofAnt - Manwas accommodate for the big cover , viewers pass over ahead a multiplication to follow Scott Lang ( played by Paul Rudd ) as the 2nd character reference to wear the cause , which then led to the reimagined Hank Pym ( played by Michael Douglas ) .
2018’sAnt - homo and the Waspintroduced an senior interpretation of Janet van Dyne / the original Wasp who worked alongside Pym before being lost for decades in the Quantum Realm . The comic version of Jan was a establish Avenger who was only briefly trapped in the Microverse ( same thing ) so did n’t turn a loss a chunk of her adult life sentence .
Better: Nebula
Karen Gillan ’s Nebula first appeared in 2014’sGuardians of the Galaxyas one of the daughter of Thanos who actively work against her adopted baby Gamora before the two reconciled and she became a phallus of the Guardians .
While the MCU version has found buyback and regained her sister thanks to clip - travel in 2019’sAvengers : Endgame , the comic translation live a tragic life and see extreme harm at Thanos ’s hand during theInfinity Gauntletseries , which has set her on a dark path that is far from the redemptive arc of the MCU ’s character .
Worse: Quicksilver
While Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch ( fiddle by Elizabeth Olsen ) has become a prominent member of the Avengers and will come out in the upcomingWandaVisionseries on Disney+ , her twin pal Pietro / Quicksilver ( played by Aaron Taylor - Johnson ) was n’t so lucky .
The amusing version has had his ups and downs as both a submarine sandwich and a scoundrel over the years , though he remain an alive Avenger , whereas the MCU rendering of the character was kill inAvengers : Age of Ultronsaving Hawkeye and a young boy from a hail of bullets .
Better: War Machine
James " Rhodey " Rhodes was a part of the MCU since its beginnings in 2008’sIron Man , and he adopted his War Machine armor in 2010’sIron Man 2(played by Don Cheadle ) and became apowerful member of the Avengers .
While the MCU ’s War Machine suffered a paralyzing injury that was part corrected by Tony Stark , the comic version has in reality interpret much bad over the years , as his body was almost completely replaced by machinery after a good - fateful harm , and he has beenviolently killed by Thanos , though he was brought back to aliveness by Stark .
Worse: Baron Zemo
2016’sCaptain America : Civil Warintroduced a new scoundrel into the MCU as Daniel Brühl bring in a version of Baron Zemo to the big silver screen , and is set tofaithfully repeat the rolewith his comic visual aspect inThe Falcon and The Winter Soldier .
Helmut Zemo in the comics was raised by the first evil Baron Zemo and follow in his father ’s footstep for a lifetime career of villainy , while the MCU character was driven to his crimes after lose his entire family , make his root a bit more heartbreaking than the comic edition .
Better: Steve & Peggy
Avengers : Endgamedrastically altered the MCU as it function as the culmination of the entire Infinity Saga andfeatured the deaths of some of the constitute member of the squad , though it also feature a happy finish for a particular pair of type .
WhenCaptain Americatraveled through time toreturn the Infinity Stones to the past , he returned to the past tense to regain his drop off life alongside his love , Peggy Carter . The comic version has found beloved a few multiplication in the modern earned run average , though he never quite received his happily ever after .
Worse: Iron Man
While Captain America received his happy ending andThorreturned to the stars alongside the GotG , Endgamealso be the MCU its biggest mavin as Tony Stark / Iron Man sacrifice his lifeto use the Infinity Stones and wipe off Thanos and his army from existence .
The amusing interlingual rendition ofIron Man has died quite a few time in the comics , but he has always been born-again through various substance , which is something that likely wo n’t happen to the MCU character . We bonk you 3000 .
