![]() ![]() Wanda Maximoff, even though no longer an Avenger, is without a second thought one of the most powerful Avengers there has been. He is a brilliant human being as well but even after being one of the strongest, this sole vulnerability of Iron Man pushes him to the fifth position. In Iron Man 2, we witnessed his near-death experience just because of his Arc Reactor. Iron Man is undoubtedly one of the strongest Avengers but only till his Arc Reactor isn’t damaged. ![]() The only reason I am putting Iron Man in the fifth rank is his vulnerability. Initially, he was portrayed as arrogant and full of himself but eventually went through a character development throughout his journey in the MCU. To combat it, he created a suit of mechanical armor for himself, taking up the mantle of Iron Man.Įven after being a fan favorite, his only flaw is that he is too smart and too rich, two things that don’t go well together. ![]() Seeing his weapons being used to cause mass destruction and innocent deaths, he decided to become a force against such things. Tony Stark, the owner of Stark Industries and a weapons manufacturer, was captured by a radical group. Since his first appearance in the year 2008, Iron Man became a cult-level fan favorite, and even after the death of Tony Stark in Avengers: Endgame, people love him as much as they did when he first appeared on the big screen. Even after being an extremely useful asset to The Avengers in the sky, and a formidable force with a firearm strapped to him, his vulnerability pushes him down on this list. A superhero whose sole power is limited to a wingsuit and who can be taken down by damaging his wings kind of makes him a little less, you know, super. After losing his friend, he quit military service and started a support group for trauma-suffering military veterans, and later on, took the mantle of The Falcon.Įven after being one of the coolest heroes in The Avengers, his lower ranking is pretty much explained in his origin. He was chosen to test a prototype wingsuit to infiltrate hostile territory, which was inaccessible to military choppers because of severe RPG fire.Īlong with his friend named Riley, he successfully completed the task handed to him, but Riley was killed in action by an RPG. Sam Wilson has a history of military service as a pararescueman for the United States Airforce and has been on multiple overseas missions as well. However, those changes were not included in the MCU's adaptation of the suit, since the costume was designed as a Captain America suit, which is why the cinematic version of the costume included the shield and helmet.Sam Wilson or The Falcon gained serious popularity after the Falcon and the Winter Soldier TV series was released on Disney+ in 2019. For that reason, he had a new costume that no longer included a helmet or his signature shield. At the time, Bucky Barnes was the Marvel Universe's Captain America, and Steve Rogers started operating as a super-spy, soldier and S.H.I.E.L.D. Indeed, the movie costume was based on the Commander Rogers outfit that the character wore during Marvel's Heroic Age in 2010. Of course, it's important to note that the covert suit Steve Rogers wore in The Winter Soldier as well as in the opening minutes of Avengers: Infinity War was first inspired by comics. Instead, he wears a navy blue tactical outfit that looks like a comic book take on the MCU's S.T.R.I.K.E. However, Steve doesn't put on the classic costume that he is currently sporting in the main Captain America series.
