    Yeah, and he de-greened Drax and Mantis, to boot. 'Cause that team, wow. Bug, Mantis, Drax, Gamora... And there's no reason why Groot couldn't sprout some leaves to complete the theme.

    Respectfully, there are enough (and better) Superman clones in the Marvel Universe. CoughHyperioncouph!

    Nightwatch.

    Really, enough said on that alone. Killed off in the back of a Spider-Man Unlimited annual.

    He was later revealed to be alive in She-Hulk and a super villain named Nighteater.

    I enjoyed Hyperion when he was with Squadron Supreme (fighting Avengers under the Sinister banner, then later Squadron Supreme) - and right through the 12 issue Limited series for Squadron Supreme (one of the best written stories in Marvel!) - and up to those last two specials (Death of a Universe and such) - but did not care for his character post 2000 or whenever they made him and the rest a part of the "regular" Marvel Universe. I feel like he (all of them really) lost their personalities we saw previously.

    That's a good point. You'd have thought the current Iron Man 2020 storyline would have been the perfect time to bring her back.
    It would be a great way to bring her back! Plus death's head was in that event in the marvel 1000 one shots so why not circuit breaker? Both are from the same comic and marvel owns both of them.

    Also what about robyn hood? She's a robot also. Has she showed up in this event yet? She should be in the new warriors or champions teams. marvel only used her in two issues then dumped her.

    Thanks for reminding me of that Avenging Spider-Man arc. Technically, she blew up at the end, but considering her CPU was saved by her creator, she could've been rebuilt at some point.

    Darkhawk - they keep teasing him and setting him up to be the next Nova but quickly discard and abandon him
    Toxin (Patrick Mulligan) - never given the chance to develop as a character before being killed off screen just so his symbiote could become Venom 2.0
    Night Thrasher - perpetually stuck in the 90's and never allowed to advance
    Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly) - never allowed to escape the stigma of the Clone Saga and (now) Clone Conspiracy, essentially become Kaine Parker 2.0 since his return.

    Cosigned, especially Night Thrasher and Ben Reilly, but given the New Warriors miniseries spinning out of the upcoming Outlawed event, I'm hoping that'll change for Night Thrasher.

    Darkhawk got some play (and upgrades) in the War of Kings/Realm of Kings stories. And he's popped up in Guardians of the Galaxy, I believe a few times.
    Night Thrasher appeared in the comic based off the mobile game (I want to say Contest of Champions?) - and was resurrected - appeared in Civil War II (for one issue) - and is now appearing in the upcoming New Warriors limited series.
    Scarlet Spider (if it's who I think it is - because it is a bit of a mess) - was a member of the latest New Warriors (granted, hard to believe it's been 5 years... and had his own series before that... not sure if he's appeared since... I've dropped 99% of what I collect)

    Wrong Scarlet Spider, the 2014 New Warrior who'd recently had a solo book was Kaine, not Ben. Ben was on the original 90s team near the end. There was a Scarlet Spider series a couple of years ago, which was primarily about Ben but did also feature Kaine.

    Yes, it was Contest of Champions in which Thrash was rescued from Stamford (he wasn't resurrected, he was actually pulled into the future just as the explosion happened, thus saving his life).

    Yeah, her body was destroyed - but that's happened to Vision before and he was rebuilt, so they can bring her back. Unfortunately, another comics company has a character called Robyn Hood, and the writer who wrote her issues is no longer writing for Marvel, so she's probably gone for good.

    She'd be redundant on the Champions anyway, since Kamala or Viv can do all the same stuff.
