10 Characters Fans Want In The MCU (And How They Can Be Introduced)

5. Abigail Brand

Nova Silver Surfer
Marvel Comics

The sarcastic and quirky leader of SWORD, Abigail Brand is a character many fans have been waiting to see in live action.

Brand is a relatively new addition to the Marvel Universe, having only made her debut in 2004, but is already a comic fan favourite. She carries the X Gene and her father was an alien, which means not only is she an accomplished fighter, but she can produce blue flames across her hands as well.

Brand is the commander of SWORD, an extension of SHIELD that is the first line of defence against extra-terrestrial threats. She is a fierce but funny leader and a character that would be an entertaining inclusion into the MCU.

SWORD have been confirmed to appear in the upcoming WandaVision series so fans are hoping that Brand will eventually make an appearance, either in WandaVision or another series in the future. It is possible that SWORD will be Nick Fury's creation and therefore be included in the recently announced Secret Invasion Disney+ series.

If you have clicked on here, get ready to be bored. I'm just a 20 year old white male who has a (probably) unhealthy obsession with pop culture Film and TV. Handy in a trivia game but not much else. My parents were never murdered, I'm not avenging my dead wife. Just plain, old sat at a computer with a head full of knowledge I mostly don't use I was born and raised in the Black Country near Birmingham, England however am now living in Manchester, England after I moved here two years ago. I currently attend the University of Salford, studying Broadcast Journalism. That's it really. Told you there was nothing special. If you're really that desperate for something to do, follow me on socials. Yes, I do like that ego boost.
