Unsurprisingly , given that the MCU includes so many characters , some could give the Avengers as much of a outpouring for their money as Thanos . While these side characters may not have plot armor on their side , it ’s easy to see how they could also impart the Avengers to their knee .
A hero is usually only as compelling as their baddie , and the MCU has delivered a all-encompassing range of resister of varying power levels .
