there’s still a lot of stories that can
be brought to the MCU we have a few
suggestions welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top 10 Marvel story lines we want as
movies before we begin we publish new
videos every day so be sure to subscribe
for more great content for this list
we’re looking at classic Marvel Comics
stories that we want to see made into
movies especially now that characters
like the x-men and the Fantastic Four
can play in the Marvel Cinematic
Universe sandbox
we’re not counting stories that have
already been loosely adapted like when X
2 borrowed elements from the classic
x-men tale God loves man kills number 10
the sinister six before a deal was
reached between Sony and Marvel that
allowed the wall-crawler to finally join
the MCU a film is in development that
would have introduced a number of
Spidey’s greatest villains for an all
baddie adventure in Sony spider-man
universe there’s no reason that plan can
be carried over to the MCU and we can’t
think of a better follow-up to
homecoming than seeing Tom Holland
squaring off against a six-pack of
classic Spidey villains while the roster
has changed several times over the years
but the first iteration did include the
vulture
maybe the MCU version includes scorpion
– I’ve got some boys on the outside who
would love to meet him you don’t take a
picture slices thrown put his head in
the dryer number 9 Days of Future
present
well not as well-known as its similarly
named precursor this classic story
unites the x-men and the Fantastic Four
when an adult version of Franklin
Richards the son of mr. fantastic and
The Invisible Woman appears from the
dystopian alternate future of Days of
Future past but Franklin’s tampering
with the timeline draws the attention of
a vicious mutant hunter and two teams
rally together to protect the time
hopping hero well we can’t really
recommend the storyline as one that
could be used to introduce the two teams
into the MCU
it would be a fun adventure to see down
the line once both groups have been
established number 8 House of M while
she’s pretty stable on screen the comics
version of Wanda is often overwhelmed by
the magnitude of her powers and has gone
off the deep end on a few occasions
usually this means trouble for anyone
around her at the time and in this
instance
Wanda rewrites reality for all the
Marvel Universe creating a timeline
where her father magneto rules the world
and mutants are the dominating species
our heroes eventually realized what’s up
thanks to Wolverines memories of the old
world
band together for a massive battle for
the fate of the Marvel Universe when it
comes to Avengers x-men crossovers
doesn’t get much bigger than this number
7 miracle man a dream of flying this may
be wishful thinking and it would be a
pretty hard sell but it’s not impossible
one of the cornerstones of Alan Moore’s
legendary career this series sees a
freelance reporter discover his
long-forgotten alter-ego a superhero
straight out of the Silver Age of comics
but as reawakening throws the contrast
between the heroes of yesteryear and the
world of today into sharp relief and the
returned hero quickly begins struggling
to find a place for himself in the
modern era with no connections to the
Marvel Universe at large
bringing this book to screen would be a
serious gamble but Marvel’s taking
chances before and it’s always paid off
in the end
number 6 world war hulk when your
marvel’s favorite jay giant you have
some good days and some bad days a good
day is when you only smash one or two
conveniently empty buildings a bad day
is when you lead an alien armada in a
massive invasion of earth this epic
storyline chronicles one such bad day
for the hulk and sees the heroes of the
Marvel Universe fighting back as their
former ally returns from exile on a
distant planet with a vengeance it would
be hard to see this one fit into the MCU
but supporting cast members like Korg
and meek were introduced in Thor
Ragnarok so anything’s possible
number 5 Secret Invasion not every alien
invasion is as big an attention-getting
as the one seen in the first Avengers
especially when the Skrulls are involved
a shape-shifting race able to blend
almost seamlessly into other cultures
these aliens are set to be introduced as
the villains in the upcoming Captain
Marvel movie and their covert invasion
of Earth could easily be set up and
Carol Danvers big-screen debut it may
still end with a big show-stopping
battle between the invaders and every
single hero in the Marvel Pantheon but
the storylines edition of intrigue and
paranoia – the classic alien invasion
scenario would make for a fun Marvel
movie nonetheless number 4 Secret Wars
this one is a serious no-brainer one of
the original comics mega events this
landmark series begins when a powerful
cosmic being known as the Beyonder
transports a collection of Marvel heroes
and aliens to an alien planet to wage
the ultimate war between good and evil
not only is this storyline full of epic
battles
it also features the first appearance of
spider-man’s flat cost you while a few
alterations might need to be made
bringing this story or the 2050
follow up to the big screen would be a
Marvel event on a scale we have yet to
see with every team in the publishers
roster fighting an all-out war for their
future number three the coming of
Galactus now we know what you’re
thinking didn’t Fantastic Four rise of
the Silver Surfer already do this one to
which we answer no it didn’t because
Galactus isn’t a cloud when it comes to
Marvel villains it doesn’t get much
bigger than the devourer of worlds
himself in his true form as a giant dude
in purple and blue armor with some
seriously ostentatious head we’re
originally introduced in the pages of
Fantastic Four the world leading baddie
is nevertheless a threat that requires
the attention of every Marvel hero under
the Sun we can’t think of many villains
who could top the knows but this is
definitely one of them number two
annihilation this epic story begins when
an eyeless ruler of the chaotic
alternate dimension known as the
negative zone arrives in the Marvel
Universe with a massive Armada known as
the annihilation way and a serious bone
to pick with pretty much every living
thing in his path the crisis brings
together a number of Marvel’s cosmic
heroes including Nova the Silver Surfer
star-lord and others this story
relaunched Marvel’s cosmic side of
things where the action all takes place
away from Earth while guardians of the
galaxy already got the ball rolling for
the MCU this storyline would definitely
kick the emcee use cosmic adventures
into overdrive
number one Avengers vs. x-men when it
comes to comics there are certain
protocols to follow and one of the most
important of them is that when two
heroes or groups of heroes meet for the
first time they have to fight we don’t
make the rules we just enforce them and
now that the x-men and the Avengers can
conceivably meet on screen
it’s just a matter of time until we get
to superhero Throwdown to end them all
the comics version of this epic battle
has quite a bit of a backstory behind it
which makes bringing it to the big
screen tricky but that doesn’t mean we
wouldn’t be first in line for this epic
slugfest do you agree with our picks
