Champions outside of marvel comics

Soumemiakas1926

How do you feel about champions that exist in the game but not in marvel comics? I think Aegon, Guillotine and act 8 final bosses are some of them. Are there others? I think it's a little weird that we play champions that don't exist in comics.

all of Marvel's games have original characters these days. Besides Guillotine, Civil Warrior, Purgatory et al in Contest, Future Fight has a Captain America who's Cap and Peggy's daughter from a timeline where he didn't get frozen, Luna Snow a K-pop star, Crescent a 10 year old girl with a magic mask and a team of 4 characters based on the Asian constellations, Puzzle Quest had Peggy Cap before anything else, Strike Force has Kestrel, a SHIELD medic. It's no big deal to me, it's no different to Firestar from Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, Morph from X-Men, X23 from X-Men Evolution or even Harley Quinn from DC...

The great thing is, all of these original creations from the game companies, eventually make thier way into the marvel comics. Nearly all of them has thus far actually. I dont think Kestrel or Aegon has yet but even guillotine had a comic run.

Soumemiakas1926

Really? Any example besides Guillotine?

Buttehrs

Luna snow and crescent. And I'm pretty sure the cap version of Peggy carter.

Actually only Guilly appeared on comics, and it was on MCOC comic so not really a Marvel comic

Laban’s original champs are indeed part of the Marvel comics universe, but they are yet to be used by writers on actual stories

I don't understand why i get so many disagrees. I just wanted a normal discussion.

Don't you feel weird playing thor, hercules and other mythology champs?

Guillotine appeared in the Contest series by Al Ewing and later guest appeared in Al Ewing's US Avengers as part of the European Champions team during the Secret Empire event.

From the Future Fight exclusives, Luna Snow and Crescent appeared in three Agents of Atlas miniseries, the first during the War of the Realms event and the other two after that. They, along with White Fox*, appeared in a series of solo one-shots called "Future Fight Firsts".

This glow in the dark Funko Pop of CW was used as the basis for Hydra!Cap (aka Stevil)'s armour in the climax of Secret Empire

Peggy Carter as Cap was in the Exiles comic back in 2016 or '17 after the character debuted in Puzzle Quest. A different Captain Carter had a miniseries last year. She also wasn't the same one from What If?

Insomniac Spidey had a few iirc. He at least appeared in one. He was also in ATSV

Soumemiakas1926

They are characters from marvel comics though.

They could put Jesus in the game, and I'd still have fun beating the **** out of other champs with him lol. But the versions int the game are actual marvel characters

im pretty sure the new kushala and the other one is a collab with marvel

ReignkingTW

Because people disagree with you.

Personally I couldn't care less.

SpideyFunko

kushala is a comic character

Buttehrs

Cheeilth is but kushala is definitely a marvel comic character and not a kabam original.

he was in the Spider-geddon event and I think had a mini or a one-shot.

*White Fox is not a Future Fight original, she actually first appeared in a South Korean web comic promoting Avengers Age of Ultron, before making her 616 debut in the aforementioned Contest comic.

(I'm a dumbass and forgot to put this on the bottom of my prior post, apologies)
