Adam Warlock Guardians of the Galaxy

Originally Known As: Him

Species: Artificially-created human

Place of Origin: The Beehive, Shard Island, Atlantic Ocean

Joined the Team In: Never

Powers/Abilities: Super-strength/stamina/agility/endurance, flight, energy manipulation.

Who/What Is He: He’s an artificially-created human with strange cosmic powers.

Why We Want Him: While Warlock has never actually been a member of the Avengers, his history is pretty closely tied to the The Mad Titan, A.K.A. Thanos, A.K.A. that wrinkly-chinned guy who was pulling Loki’s strings in Joss Whedon’s The Avengers (before appearing during the end credits). In fact, if Thanos' Infinity Gauntlet is involved - the gnarly-looking glove that briefly cameoed in Thor - you can pretty much guarantee that Adam Warlock won't be far behind.

Frankly, I wasn't a huge Warlock fan until the Annihilation crossover and the excellent Guardians of the Galaxy series that followed, a property that Kevin Feige has spoken about as a potential movie franchise. But perhaps an appearance in Avengers 2 could pave the way for said franchise?
