Mephisto Needs His Own MCU TV Spinoff (Like Agatha)

A standalone series featuring Mephisto, who first appeared as an enemy of Silver Surfer in 1968, could draw from a wealth of comic book material beyond his relationships with Riri and Parker Robbins. Initially, he tempted the Silver Surfer by offering him a way to reunite with Shalla-Bal, his love from Zenn-La. Although the Silver Surfer resisted, Mephisto continued to trouble various Marvel characters. For instance, he played a role in creating Ghost Rider by binding Johnny Blaze’s soul with the fire demon Zarathos, granting Blaze his fiery powers. Moreover, Mephisto has been a persistent antagonist for Peter Parker (Spider-Man), particularly during the “One More Day” storyline published in 2007, where he destroyed Peter and Mary Jane Watson’s marriage. It was later revealed that their daughter, Mayday Parker, is Mephisto’s arch-nemesis. With numerous other heroes and villains in the Marvel universe having crossed paths with Mephisto, there’s a rich tapestry of stories waiting to be explored for a potential series focusing on this character.
