3. Ultimate Six (2003)

The Brian Michael Bendis-penned Ultimate Six event has all the markings of an epic cinematic crossover between Spider-Man and the Avengers.

Spidey goes up against five members of supervillain collective the Sinister Six - Electro, Kraven, Sandman, Doctor Octopus and Green Goblin - in this seven-part arc, making it the perfect vehicle to integrate the web slinger€™s greatest foes into the MCU.

Ultimate Six is tailor-made for cinema. It was Spidey€™s first crossover with the Ultimates, a modern-day reimagining of the Avengers, and this concept is a natural fit for the MCU. Sooner or later, Holland€™s Spider-Man will come up against a threat he cannot handle alone, which is where his Civil War contacts will come in handy.

Bringing the Sinister Six over to the MCU would trample all over Sony€™s plans for a standalone movie featuring the villainous crew, but let€™s face it, they were dead already.
