Every Headline MCU Protagonist Ranked From Worst To Best

11. Stephen Strange - Doctor Strange

Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness
Marvel Studios

Many admirable and noble superheroes across pop culture were once arrogant people who took what they had for granted, only to lose it all. Stephen Strange is a textbook example of one.

He’s a man who loved being a surgeon more than anything, so much so that he pushed away the people he loved and ended up becoming somebody unpleasant to be around as he slowly grew consumed by greed. But the moment he lost the ability to operate was when his life began to break down.

We all love seeing somebody come from a dark place and see them rise, and this is precisely what Strange does in one of the most compelling character arcs in the MCU as he learns to appreciate the people around him and realize that there are other ways he can help the world.

By the end of the movie, he’s become someone entirely different from who he was. Now he’s somebody we can all look up to, and he’s also someone that teaches us that we can all be something great no matter where we come from.
