7 Avengers-Level Threats Too Big For The MCU

Avengers comics are known for their epic, large-scale battles against Marvel’s most powerful enemies. While the Avengers we see in the Marvel Cinematic Universe are strong, some of the threats from the comics – including villains, alien species, and dangerous situations – would be far too overwhelming for them.

34 Years Ago Today, Magneto Recruiting The X-Men’s Greatest Heroes As His New Acolytes Proved the Power of Xavier’s Dream

Chris Claremont dramatically reshaped the X-Men with a story many believed would be his last contribution to the series. Issues #1-3 of X-Men (Vol. 2) introduced a brand new group of mutant enemies, finally explained Magneto’s evolving motivations, and shockingly saw the X-Men’s Blue Team siding with Magneto in his fight against humans.
