Ka-Zar

Ka-Zar isn’t exactly an A-list Marvel hero, but his popularity is great enough that he has been suggested as the potential star of his own movie in the past. In the absence of that actually happening, a television series might be the best way to go in the current climate.

He’s very different to anything in the Marvel Cinematic Universe at the moment. He was born Kevin Reginald, Lord Plunder, in Castle Plunder, Kentish Town, London, England. However, when his mother and father were killed in the Savage Land, he was found and raised by the sabertooth tiger Zabu (who possessed near-human intelligence thanks to a mutation caused by radioactive mists).

Brought up with the name Ka-Zar, he became an expert hunter, trapper and fisherman, living off the wild land. He regularly encounters hostile tribes and creatures there, as well as invaders from the more mainstream and modern Marvel universe (he has fought against and alongside the likes of the X-Men, Magneto, Thanos, Spider-Man, Doctor Octopus and Daredevil in his time).

A Ka-Zar television show would introduce a completely new environment and a totally new type of hero into the MCU – and, quite frankly, we’d love to see it.
