9 Marvel Superheroes Who Desperately Deserve Their Own Netflix Series
3. Trish Walker, AKA Hellcat
Who They Are: For all you comic book purists out there, yes I do mean Patsy Walker. The character was however introduced in Jessica Jones as Trish, so for the purposes of envisioning a Hellcat series as one being a part of the MCU, this one inconsequential change shall remain.
After multiple appearances in The Avengers during the '70s, Patsy Walker went on to become a key member of The Defenders, and we all know how that team will be coming to the MCU.
She's an incredible hand-to-hand combatant and can out-think foes almost as well as Captain America, but also ends up with a pretty nifty set of mystical powers too. Whilst I doubt we'll so those move-sets in the future, Walker's been one of Marvel's foremost female heroes for a long time now.
Why They Deserve A Series: Like Daredevil before it, I absolutely loved Jessica Jones. Unlike that aforementioned series however I didn't really follow every minute detail of Jones pre-release hype, and so found myself more than pleasantly surprised when I saw that Trish Walker the famous Hellcat that made her debut in The Avengers back in 1976 was one of the series most prominent recurring characters. Initially, the show didn't really have any inclination to hint at Walkers eventual alter-ego (which made perfect sense for the story being told), but over the course of its 13 episodes we do in fact see her demonstrate some combat prowess something I can only hope will precede an arc to costumed-heroism in Jessica Jones next season.
Rachael Taylor was easily one of the series greatest aspects, and to have her acting talents receive sole focus in a show of her own would be absolutely fantastic. Make it happen, Marvel!
