Disney Buys Fox: 8 Epic Storylines The MCU Can Now Adapt

5. Madripoor Knights

This storyline could present a whole bunch of headaches for Marvel, with its flashbacks to Cap and Wolverine's WW2 days potentially proving to be an issue, but it would make for a fantastic movie all the same.

Releasing just as the X-Men's popularity was beginning to increase with artist Jim Lee at the helm, Madripoor Knights told the story of how Steve Rogers, Wolverine and Natasha Romanoff first met. Cap and Logan end up saving a young Natasha (then being manipulated by The Hand and other mysterious organisations), before they all go their separate ways.

This is where Cap's story ends, but Logan and Nat eventually cross paths when The Hand resurface, with Wolverine, Jubilee and Psylocke all coming to the super-spy's rescue. It's a fairly simple story, and one that's likely to be overlooked all the same, but the idea of the MCU revisiting the past to influence the present is an appealing one, and one that's been used in both The Winter Soldier and the original Ant-Man to great effect.

With the upcoming Black Widow solo film said to be a prequel itself, how great would it be if Marvel could drop a Wolverine reference (or two) along the way?
