Spider-Man

While Spider-Man is by far the most iconic solo hero on this list, he isn’t classically an Avenger. He has, however, been a member in recent times and his existing profile is such that he definitely deserves a place on this list.

The Webbed Wonder AKA Peter Parker joined the team in Avengers #329 in February of 1991 and has been in and out of the team ever since.

Having previously only appeared in Sony-produced solo movies, the character is about to make his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, taking his rightful place alongside the likes of Iron Man and Captain America. Tom Holland will take on the role in this year’s Captain America: Civil War, before getting a solo movie in 2018 and joining the Avengers from that point onward – and that will be awesome to see.
