Funny Marvel Female Hero Scuba Gear Drawing

A few months ago, I interviewed Evangeline Lilly, who plays The Wasp in Ant-man and the Wasp.  I congratulated her for being the first female Marvel superhero ever included in the film title of any movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.  I also pressed her just a bit to see if she thought the rumor of an all female superhero movie could possibly be in the works for the MCU.

Let me just say – I love seeing female superheroes on the big screen and I love sharing this experience with my daughters even more.  We've gotten to see several in the past few years of MCU greatness. And their tremendous strength and power leaves much to admire. If we were to get an all female Marvel superhero movie, I imagine this would be the starting lineup!

Best Female Superheroes In the Marvel Cinematic Universe

1. The Scarlet Witch

By far, she is one of the most powerful superheroes in the Marvel world. Her powers entail warping and altering reality. Despite being the daughter of the villain Magneto, she switched allegiance and now fights alongside the Avengers.

2. Black Widow

Natasha Romanoff was once a great enemy of Iron Man. She was the daughter of a KGB agent and had once undergone a secret black widow program that not only brainwashed her but turned her into a spy. But she defected from that movement, and she now spends time doing good trying to make up for the wrongs she did.

3. Wasp

Janet Van Dyne or Wasp was played by Evangeline Lilly in Ant-Man and The Wasp.  She was the daughter of the brilliant Hank Pym thought the original Wasp was Van Dyne's mother. In the comics, Wasp was also a founding member of the Avengers.

4. Shuri

Shuri, played by Letitia Wright, is Black Panther's brilliant sister, notably the smartest person in the Marvel universe.  She is also trained as a Black Panther and in the comic books, has had to step in as the Black Panther when T'Challa becomes incapable.  Like…I don't know…If he were to become dusted for example?

5. Okoye

Okoye is played by Danai Gurira in Black Panther, where she is the head of the Dora Milaje, the all-female army of Wakanda.  She has the utmost respect dedication for the nation of Wakanda.

6. Valkyrie

Brunnhilde the Valkyrie was once part of an elite group of Asgardian warriors called the Valkyries. She resides on Sakaar as a bounty hunter, though her exact origins are unknown. Valkyrie is played by Tessa Thompson in Thor: Ragnarok.

7. Gamora

Gamora, played by Zoe Saldana, is the adopted daughter of Thanos. She has extraordinary fighting power and seeks redemption as one of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

8. Captain Marvel

Last, but certainly not least is Captain Marvel, also known as Carol Danvers. Having got her powers from encounters with aliens, she has fought a good fight for years. She is not officially part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but we have gotten ample hints that she will be coming to the big screen soon!

Best Female Marvel Villains

 Hela the Goddess of Asguard

We found Hela, played by Cate Blanchett last year as she made her appearance as the daughter of Odin in Thor: Ragnarok.  If there were ever to be an all female Marvel superhero movie, she would be a top choice of mine for the female Marvel villain to out-fight all other villains!

Honorable Mention – Ghost

The villain Ghost in Ant-Man and the Wasp was originally a male character in the comic books, but I have to say Hannah John-Kamen brought the character to life through her portayal.

Female Marvel Superheroes of Color

Of course, we have Shuri and Okoye who have quickly become two of the best known black female Marvel superheroes.  The character of Valkyrie was not a woman of color in the comic books, but the role was given to African American actress Tessa Thompson, much like the Ghost Character.  While the diversity in female Marvel superheroes has some room to expand, these are a couple more female Marvel superheroes of color to note.

9. Ms. Marvel

Despite this character being assumed by different women, the current, known as Kamala Khan is becoming a favorite among comic fans. Being a teenage shapeshifter, she has an excellent personality. Moreover, she's the first Muslim female superhero to lead her own comic.

10. Storm

Storm is a popular mutant who was recruited by Professor X to join the X-Men. She can manipulate weather. Ororo Monroe's powers are quite fascinating, and she portrays leadership skills in the moments she has led the X-men to battle. In the comic books, Storm was married to Black Panther, but the marriage was annulled.

There have been rumors circulating that she will be appearing in the upcoming Captain Marvel film, but that has not been confirmed to me yet.

12. America Chavez

American Chavez is mighty Latina in Marvel Universe and a member of the Ultimates. She's also the first  or most well known comic book character who is a member of the LGBTQ community.
