First Appearance: Marvel Super-Heroes #8

Squirrel Girl might already be destined for the MCU on the small-screen, but with the New Warriors TV show said to be struggling to find a network, it could be possible that the character is heading for one decidedly bigger.

Created by Steve Ditko and Will Murray in 1991, Squirrel Girl has become one of Marvel's best and brightest characters, and (somewhat surprisingly) one of their most powerful as well. She famously toppled Galactus just the other year, and with the MCU lacking a through and through comedy, Doreen Green could be the hero to marshal that genre, particularly if inspiration is taken from the character's most recent stories.
