I want to give a little love to the often overlooked members team. Talon the catman Inhuman, Replica the teenage Skrull, and Krugarr the Sorcerer Supreme of the future. Krugarr actually made it in the second movie.

Also lets never forget Yellowjacket II. Poor Rita went to the future and became a real hero and turned her life around only to be casually murdered in cold blood by Tony Stark upon her return to the present day.
