I don't think I've followed anything really with those characters so I will have to think about what to vote on. In the meantime, I am going to write in my preference (based on what new characters I can even remember):
Marcus Johnson.
Robbie is one of my all-time favorite Marvel characters, to be honest. Maybe it was because his situation was similar to mine at the time I was reading, but he really resonated with me. His personality, his lore, his stories, his aesthetics, they were all so rich and engaging. It's a shame Aaron seems hellbent on destroying every interesting element
Gwen is my second favorite. Her story was so fun and creative, Gurihiru is peak aesthetic, and I love how her characters grew and developed in Beyond the Fourth Wall. I expected so little going into her solo, but I came out with a character I really cherish.
EDIT: Ms. Marvel would have been #2, if her later issues didn't make her into this unlikeable brat.
Neither of them are Hellion-tier, but truly, who is?
From the list, my top 3 are
1) Ghost Rider (Robbie)
2) Gwenpool
3) Spider Punk
But my true favorite is Dr Toni Ho.
Bringing back the old, killing the young: that's the Marvel way
Ms marvel. her series is what started me reading more Recent marvel titles. I read her first run in a day and a half.
This Post Contains No Artificial Intelligence. It Contains No Human Intelligence Either.
Tough choice among Silk, Ms. Marvel and KNULL.
"Cable was right!"
Best New Character Of The Last Decade: Kamala Khan.
4th Worst New Character Of The Last Decade: Ms. Marvel.
I went with the ones I follow Khan, Reyes, Poole, Cindy Moon, Viv Vision and to add characters not on the list - Samuel Alexander as Nova, Samuel Chung as Blindspot and Reader
Then for villains Gorr the Godbutcher and Muse .... for now.

I voted for Robbie Reyes, Ironheart, Ms. Marvel, Silk, and Viv Vision.
Ms. Marvel, The One Below All, Cosmic Ghost Rider, Tarn the Uncaring.
Ooh, I woulda picked her as well if she was on the list!
I picked Silk and Kamala, but shoulda picked Viv Vision as well. Ah well.
I'd totally pick Tarn the Uncaring as well. He's deliciously evil, and more interesting than the rest of the Arakki, save perhaps White Sword, of whom we know annoyingly little.
Only two of those characters appeared in books that I read and that was Victorious and Hyperion. I think I'll sit this one out and just enjoy the other responses.
