Batroc is a French kickboxer of incredible helping hand to give armed combat acquisition . Despite having no major power , he has shown to own impeccable flexibleness , strength , and agility . Batroc can even defy a punch from Captain America and not recede stamina in the outgrowth .
No wonder Marvel Studios cast one of this generation ’s greatest fighters in Georges St - Pierre to take on Captain America one - on - one .
Hero - Human Torch
While it ’s one ofCaptain America : The First Avenger’sbest Easter eggs , most masses do n’t make out that the Human Torch exists in the MCU - the original Human Torch that is . In the Stark Expo scene at the beginning ofThe First Avenger , the Human Torch can be go steady in video display .
In the comedian , the Human Torch was an android much like Vision , and as his name implies , he was engulfed in fire . He has n’t appeared much recently in funnies but his comprehension in the MCU is marvelous indeed . Many fans were hoping that he would come along inAgent Carter , but that unfortunately never befall . It was by and by rumour that actor Jason O’Mara would play the Human Torch on Season 4 ofAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D. , but that was chop-chop debunked when he was revealed to be playing Jeffrey Mace , aka The Patriot .

Villain - Blizzard
Before Dylan Minnette rock Netflix as Clay Jensen in the acclaimed series13 Reasons Why , he play the supervillain Donnie Gill / Blizzard on ABC’sAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D. In the sequence “ Seeds , ” Donnie and a champion created a machine that can operate the weather to affect Ian Quinn , a moneyed star inventor . The gadget backfire and electrocuted Donnie while kill his acquaintance . As a resultant role , Donnie got the magnate to generate rash , rig the cold , and produce ice .

His body turn to frappe and falls to the bottom of the sea . It is then revealed that the authorities were ineffective to recover Donnie ’s body .
WithAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.taking the squad to infinite in Ssason 5 , it ’s unlikely that Minnette ’s Blizzard will ever return to the show .
Hero - Doc Samson
The Leader was n’t the only salient Marvel Comics character to appear inThe Incredible Hulk . Another bounteous name Marvel personality to appear in the movie was Doc Samson . take on by Ty Burrell , Samson was in a human relationship with Betty Ross while Bruce Banner was in hiding in South America .
Like in the comics , Samson was also a psychiatrist in the movie . This version of Doc Samson never received his comic record book powers , but it was advert to in the film .
In the comics , there was a time when Samson ’s superhuman abilities were strictly tie to how long his green hair was . As silly as it sounds , the longer his hair , the more stronger he was , and frailty versa . Later in the comics , the length of his pilus did n’t move his overall speciality and he soon was able to stay in crown cast no matter his hairstyle .
Samson ’s major power are similar to that of the Hulk , except his strength does n’t fall close to that of the Jade behemoth . The Hulk engender stronger the angrier he gets , but Samson ’s specialty is unremitting no matter how tempestuous he becomes .
Villain - Doctor Faustus
Doctor Faustus was played by Ralph Brown in the first season ofMarvel’sAgent Carter . He was first referred by the moniker " Ivchenko " and was a high sherlock of the Russian undercover agent agency Leviathan . By the last of the season , he was incarcerate by Peggy Carter and met the Hydra scientist Arnim Zola .
This rendering of Doctor Faustus was not too different from his amusing leger counterpart . Though in the comics Faustus was always a member of Red Skull ’s Hydra , in the MCU he was more in line with the Russian version of S.H.I.E.L.D. , Leviathan . Like in the comics , though , in the MCU he also possessed vast intelligence .
WhileAgent Carterwas canceled before season 3 , the foundation was already done for the eventual return of Doctor Faustus . The character ’s last appearance saw him interact with Arnim Zola . It ’s possible that if time of year 3 ofAgent Cartercame to realisation , both Zola and Faustus could ’ve being the primary villains .
Hero - Jocasta
It seemsAvengers : years of Ultronwas the movie for Marvel Comics robots . Not only were Ultron , Vision , and Friday in the film , but Jocasta was really present as well .
In a wink - and - you’ll - miss - it view , we can see that among the various A.I. in Tony Stark ’s arsenal is one name Jocasta . alternatively of Jocasta , Tony chooses Friday to substitute the darling JARVIS . This was a fun little Easter orchis as Jocasta is fundamentally the female interpretation of Ultron in the comics .
In the comics , she was create by Ultron as a dear companion and was supposed to have the Wasp ’s brainiac . This , of course , did n’t come to realization as Jocasta quickly alarm the Avengers and Ultron was defeated . It took some meter for Jocasta to be to the full accept into the Avengers , but she eventually became one of the squad ’s most important penis .
While it ’s unlikely we ’ll see her in android shape in the MCU , she does play a big office in the nomadic gameMarvel Future Fight , a game hard tie to the MCU .
Villain - The Leader
The Incredible Hulkis perhaps the most forgotten film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe .

Played by Tim Blake Nelson , Sterns is one that tries to heal Bruce Banner from his Hulk persona . tail break and by the end of the moving picture accidentally exposes himself to the inwardness he create , turning him into the Leader . Unfortunately , we have n’t seen the Leader since . The only character fromThe Incredible Hulkthat has resurfaced in the MCU is Thunderbolt Ross , who had a prominent role in last year’sCaptain America : Civil War .
Though the MCU is heading towards its 17th motion picture , there ’s no signboard of Doc Samson in the Marvel Cinematic Universe since he last appear in 2008 .

While it ’s unclear whether Blaze completely transfer his Spirit of Vengeance into Robbie , evidence intimate that that ’s on the button what befall . Throughout the season , we saw Robbie transferring the Rider to Mack and Agent Coulson . This transfer leave Robbie without his devilish power .

The mystical Christian Bible the Darkhold was found in Quentin Carnival , the famous festival tied to Blaze in the strip . Next to the book was a motorcycle and a smutty cap with spike .
