Captain America/Winter Soldier: are within their comic's range but inferior stat wise, some people believe they have a strength edge. They would get stomped in a fight, but that's due to how ridiculous of a skill edge 616 has over MCU to the point that 616 Captain America could legitimately win while depowered. I know some people will call this comic wank, but Steve's wrecked three SSS enhanced individuals without his.

Black Panther: I'm not the biggest Black Panther reader, but he seems to be fairly close to his comic counterpart in strength, and actually has a bullet-timing feat so he's got better reaction speed. 616 has a massive combat speed and skill advantage, not to mention the insane differences of their suit to the point the fight wouldn't really be close.. but MCU is a respectable opponent.

Daredevil: MCU is massively inferior when it comes to pretty much anything that isn't his radar sense. While 616's gives him significantly better speed, I was discussing this with BruceRogers and I believe GhostRavage and they both said that 616 mainly uses hearing and doesn't have many feats with his other senses. MCU can taste iron in the air from blood, and smell cancer so he seems to have a possible edge there.

Spider-Man: MCU is massively outclassed right now, but MCU seems to have better strength and gear then 616 did at his age.

Hawkeye, Black Widow, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, Vision, Thor, Hulk, Dr. Strange, Loki, Ultron, Star Lord, Drax, Groot, Rocket, Gamora, Sam Wilson, 99% of Shield/Hydra/Hand, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Ronan: Massively Inferior/No Advantages.

I don't think the question is asking about power levels, people.

@anthp2000: Yeah that's my thing with CV. Not everything is about feats. That's fine in the Battle Forums, but like...once you're out of there, lore and backstory are so much more important. Even when looking at a character's abilities, tbh

Spider-Man is nothing like his comic counterpart. Spider-Man wasn't ever portrayed so childish or like so much of a rookie in the comics.

Iron Man's comic character has grown to resemble his MCU counterpart a lot more in the last few years, but historically he had a completely different personality.

Black Widow is like a completely different character with the same name and outfit.

Star Lord also has a completely different personality. He was a lot more serious in the comics.

Hulk hasn't really had a chance to shine since his solo movie in 2008. That movie also portrayed him a lot more accurately than the Avengers movies. I haven't seen Thor 3 yet.

Wilson Fisk is very different. In the comics he is just a criminal, but in the show he was portrayed as having a love for Hells Kitchen and was sympathetic. That aspect of the character does seem to be being tranfered to the comic character with the recent Daredevil comics which has Fisk as Mayor.

Quicksilver seemed pretty accurate, but the most interesting thing about him was him being a mutant and his relationship with his father. The movies couldn't explore that.

Daredevil may be the most accurate MCU character from my knowledge. At least to the way he was in the 2000s when he was a darker character.

I have commonly heard people say that Captain America and Punisher are pretty close, but I don't read them so I can't comment.

The battle forum has poisoned your minds.

Feat wise, they don't really come close. Personality wise, i'd say most are close.

Great post, but this one bit catches my eye. I don't think we have said that though since 616 Daredevil has feats like smelling blood pressure rise or feeling electromagnetic waves pepper his skin like raindrops. His classic stories had him 'see' colors by sensing the heat they give off. 616!Matt has the edge here too and his radar sense is much more developed. I am not even sure MCU Daredevil even has a radar sense or at least not like his comic counterpart.

Based on the replies, Black Widow is totally different from the comic version. For someone that has never read anything about her, can you state the difference? Personality, Stats, relationships etc

Nope.

MCU Cap has a motorcycle.

Motorcycle>car.

Cars run over mountain lions.

Black Panther is a mountain lion.

Can't disagree with that.
