10 Biggest Comic Book Characters Disney Could Buy From Fox

1. Wolverine

Of course Wolverine would top this list. He might be inactive now after the ludicrously brilliant Logan (though he's sure to return), but he's the most valuable brand in Fox's armoury and it's only a matter of time before we get more movies with him in - whether they're stand-alones or as part of a team.

If Marvel could bring Wolverine in, they could do as the comics did and have him become an Avenger (honestly, the idea of Luke Cage's New Avengers with Wolverine and Spider-Man both on the team is about the most exciting prospect in comic book movies right now). And they could already start adding noughts to their projections on the back of his involvement.

Wolverine is arguably THE enduring comic book movie brand of the last 20 years (obviously Batman would have a pretty big claim too, and so too would Cap and Iron Man, but none of them have survived as many disappointing films as Wolvie). Disney should be looking at a Fox deal for him alone.
