Marvel has always had some of the most amazing women in all of comics, thanks to Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, and of course, John Romita Sr. Marvel not only had wives and girlfriends, but many of Marvel's female characters were heroes themselves. The Invisible Woman, The Wasp, Scarlet Witch, Storm, and Black Widow were out there saving the day. Today, these wonderful women of Marvel can be seen on both the big screen and the small screen saving the world.
With the announcement of a Carol Danvers as Captain Marvel coming to the MCU, Marvel will release its first female lead superhero movie. Hopefully, that is just the first in a long line of female MCU movies. Today, we are going to guess which of these "Marvelous" ladies is your favorite.
So put your S.H.I.E.L.D. comm link on hold and pick out your favorite lady of Marvel. Is Black Widow your favorite or do you like Shuri better? Will Gamora top the list or do you prefer Scarlet Witch? Does Pepper ignite your Iron Man suit or do you like when MJ calls you 'tiger'? Give us your favorite Marvel ladies, and we will guess your favorite superhero.
Black Widow or Scarlet Witch?
We are going to start off with the ladies of the Avengers. Black Widow is the spy who can manipulate people so that she gets the best results. Scarlet Witch can manipulate reality to fix her problems. Which do you pick?
Betty Ross or Jane Foster?
We saw Thor and Hulk give each other quite a beating in Thor Ragnarok, but right now, we are going to see their love interest compete. Both of these ladies have brains as well as beauty, but which one do you like more?
Lady Sif or Gamora?
Lady Sif and Gamora are both warrior woman. They are known for their willingness to engage in a fight. Lady Sif is one of the most powerful fighters in Asgard, and Gamora is known as the most dangerous woman in the galaxy. Which do you prefer?
Peggy or Sharon Carter?
Peggy was Sharon's great aunt. Sharon grew up hearing her aunt's stories about Captain America. Due to being frozen, Captain America has dated both of these women, which seems a bit creepy. If you could pick, which one do you like better?
Storm or Jean?
X-Men was one of the first in the new era of superhero movies. It marked one of the first times that a Marvel movie had been taken seriously. Storm and Jean Grey were the first female superheroes shown on the big screen, and fans loved them at the time. Which was your favorite?
Storm or Jean Grey?
You just answered this right? Well, both of these characters were recast for X-Men Apocalypse, and so you get to choose a second time. People liked the recast versions of Storm and Jean better in most cases, even if the movie wasn't great. Which one did you like better?
Nebula or Wasp?
Nebula and Wasp may seem extremely different, but both characters grew up in homes where they felt ignored and unloved by their father figures. Both have father issues, though it is fair to say that Nebula's are far worse. Which is your favorite?
Valkyrie or Jessica Jones?
Both Valkyrie and Jessica Jones could gain a lot from visiting a good psychiatrist. They have both been through very traumatic experiences, and they both deal with them by consuming large amounts of alcohol. However, they are both very skilled at finding people. Who is your favorite?
Invisible Woman or Invisible Woman?
Fantastic Four seems cursed in the movies. The comics ushered in the Marvel Age of Comics. Their movies have been less than great, however, and we have seen two different versions of Invisible Woman. Which of them did you like the best?
Mary Jane or Gwen Stacy?
The question that has broken up more friendships than any other comic book question. MJ was introduced to be the fun-loving party girl, and Gwen was supposed to be Pete's one true love. However, fans loved MJ. Which one do you like better?
Gamora or Shuri?
Gamora is the brains behind the Guardians. She lets Star-Lord think he's in charge, but she is the rational adviser who helps him make the right calls. Shuri is the brains behind almost all of Wakanda's tech. She has improved on everything she grew up with. Who is your favorite?
Darcy or Maria Hill?
The battle of the sitcom stars. Maria Hill is one of the toughest agents of S.H.I.E.L.D in the Marvel Universe, and she was the toughest member of How I Met Your Mother. Darcy is the lovable smart mouth who likes to tase Thor, and she is pretty much the same character in Two Broke Girls. Which sitcom star was your favorite?
Rogue or Kitty Pryde?
Kitty Pryde sometimes gets stuck in her phased form, and when that happens she has trouble with human contact. Rogue can never touch people without sapping their strength. Both of these beautiful women can be dangerous, but which one do you like more?
Karen Page or Claire Temple?
Karen Page is the reporter of the Marvel Netflix Universe. She has been a link to Daredevil and Punisher. Claire Temple is the Night Nurse, and she has been the thread that has brought all of the Defenders together. Who is your favorite?
Scarlet Witch or Gamora?
Scarlet Witch lost her brother, Quicksilver, after she had started down the path to be a hero. Every life she saves helps to honor his memory. Gamora lost her family and was adopted by Thanos. She tries to do good to make up for his destruction. Which is your favorite?
Psylock or Mystique?
Psylocke was willing to work with Apocalypse, but she never seemed to buy in fully. Mystique has worked with both the heroes and the villains depending on which suited her needs most. Which do you like best?

With her powers, Scarlet Witch can change the very nature of the world and bend it to her will. Shuri can achieve these same results with the use of her technology. Which of these two do you like the best?
Hela or Okoye?
Hela is Thor's older sister. She is the goddess of death and she wants to control Asgard. Okoye is the trusted Dora Milaje of Wakanda. If any human was going to be able to beat Hela, it's Okoye. However, this isn't an actual fight, so who do you like better?
Scarlet Witch or Nakia?
Scarlet Witch and Nakia fight on the same side in Avengers Infinity War, but they see very little of one another. Scarlet Witch stays back with Vision while Nakia is on the front lines fighting for Wakanda. Which of these two do you prefer?
Pepper Potts or Shuri?
Pepper Potts is the executive assistant and love interest of Tony Stark. Shuri is the head of scientific research in Wakanda. Both women are smart, but Shuri has an edge there. Shuri is at Bruce Banner and Tony Stark's intellectual level. Who is your favorite?
Mantis or Gamora?
There are fan theories out there that state Mantis was one of Ego's kids. If that is true, then she may have had a father that was almost as bad as Thanos. Gamora would still win the contest for worst father. Which of these Guardian's do you like the best?

The battle of the Daughters of the Dragon. Misty Knight is the hard as nails cop, who is able to hold her own against the worst Harlem can throw at her. Colleen uses her grandfather's sword to help her fight crime with her friends. Who is your favorite?
Vanessa Carlysle or Trish Walker?

Black Widow or Shuri?
Black Widow is a spy and a combatant. Shuri is a tech guru and scientist. Their roles for their respective countries couldn't be much different, but they both like helping out their team, Widow with S.H.I.E.L.D, and Shuri with Wakanda. Which one do you like the best?
Gamora or Nakia?
Both of these ladies have been trained from a very young age to be tough. Nakia was raised as a royal who had to be ready to one day challenge for the throne of Wakanda. Gamora was trained by Thanos to be his daughter and fight for him. Which of these powerful ladies do you like most?
Which Aunt May was your favorite?
Spider-Man has been played by three different actors. Each incarnation of Spidey brought with him a different actress to play Aunt May. Rosemary Ann Harris, Sally Field, and Marisa Tomei have all given their talents to the role of Peter's concerned aunt. Which one was your favorite?
Valkyrie or Hela?
Hela is the reason why Valkyrie left Asgard, and she is also one of the reasons Valkyrie drinks to forget. Hela was eventually banished by Odin, but with his death, she came back. Valkyrie was able to get some revenge on Hela, even though it came at the cost of Asgard. Which one is your favorite?
Nebula or Gamora?
Nebula and Gamora were raised battling each other. Gamora won every fight, and each time Nebula lost, she was augmented. This constant battle between them caused a lot of anger, but they did make up in Guardians Vol. 2. Which daughter of Thanos do you like more?

Black Widow or Nakia?
This classic spy verse spy pits Wakanda's best against S.H.I.E.L.D's best. Nakia is not able to sit and wait while Wakanda stays neutral. Black Widow sides with Captain America against the wishes of S.H.I.E.L.D. Which of these spies do you prefer?

Jubilee or Negasonic Teenage Warhead?
X-Men always seems to have a young teenage girl on the team. In the 80s, it was Kitty Pryde, in the 90s it was Jubilee. Both of those characters hung out with Wolverine all the time.
