I've felt Strong Guy has been underused for pretty much the whole run of the latest X-Factor series. And poor Wolfsbane has been consistently poorly written for almost a decade now, even by David. Really hate that she's been used as a token homophobe because of her religion.
Am I a good man or a bad man?There needs to be a Daughters Of The Dragon ongoing. And bring back Immortal Iron Fist with more of the other Weapons. And a Masters Of Kung Fu with all the characters in the first two, plus of course Shang Chi. Throw in Luke Cage as a guest star here and there.

Oh, Equestria, we stand on guard for thee!Cloak and Dagger. I love Cloak and Dagger. They may be getting a TV series, so that's cool.
Karma. Honestly, that girl is built for espionage. She blends into the background easily, she's a librarian (so she knows how to find information), and her powers allow her to take control of people. Why is she not being used as a spy? Marjorie Liu is going to be using her in Astonishing, which makes me happy.
Death's Head. Both of them. I wanna see DH again! DH 2's cameo in Captain Britain and MI:13 was a cruel, cruel tease, and the original Death's Head's cameo in SWORD was awesome.
X-Men X-Pert, my blog where I talk about X-Men comics.I wonder: could Marvel make a Captain Universe series work? Imagine it, a series with NO regular main character, as the hero identity of Captain Universe kept jumping from one host to another! Talk about possibilities for stories!
Yay. Two guest appearances in low-selling books.
Daken was a decent series, but no one was reading it. Avengers Academy is awesome - the best Avengers book on the stands, and my second favourite book overall, right behind X-Factor and right ahead of Journey Into Mystery - but also doesn't have a lot of readers. I actually hope the Runaways arc brings in more readers. It's too good a book for such a low audience.
Regardless, the Runaways still aren't exactly getting shown the lovin'.

Yeah, but I don't know what's happening with the Runaways film. The Other Wiki mentions that production was stopped in October 2010 as Marvel focused on The Avengers. Doesn't seem to be any word since then.
And Brian K. Vaughan was involved in writing, so it'll be true to the spirit of the comics, if not the exact storyline. If it happens, that is. I'm honestly not very hopeful.

I'll be honest, I want Mockingbird away from Hawkeye for a long while. She sorta became "Hawkeye's girlfriend," and she's just too cool for that. I read her early, pre-Mockingbird appearances in Ka-Zar. She was a great character, fully capable of holding her own with Ka-Zar, verbally if not physically (and even physically, she was no pushover or shrinking violent who fainted dead away at the slightest pressure).
I don't want Mockingbird to be "Hawkeye's girlfriend." I want her to be "That chick who can kick serious amounts of ass."
As for the ABC series, it's weird. It's going to have her as a student hired to be a secret agent. We'll see how it goes, I guess.
X-Men X-Pert, my blog where I talk about X-Men comics.Another group of characters that deserves some true TLC: the New Warriors. It wasn't bad enough that Marvel had them killed in Civil War, they had to demonize them too?? And poor Speedball! as one of the best second-tier hero groups of the 90's -two of them even 'graduated' into The avengers- they didn't deserve that.

Here's another Marvel character that could use more love: Galacta, Daughter of Galactus. The last I heard, she was with her Daddy, and she found out to her shock that she is pregnant! Apparently, entities like Galactus and Galacta don't need a mate to have a...kid!?
