    Default Which Marvel character could be reinvisioned as a cosmic character?

    In other words, what regular Marvel comics character not usually thought of as being cosmic do you think could make a cool transition into a Marvel Cosmic character?

    I'm going to go with Wonder Man cus he has to whole ion power thing going on. Is he able to breathe in space without oxygen?

    The way I would do it is he would be kidnapped by some space alien and trapped light years away from the Earth and he could go on space adventures and battle alien evil doers.

    This might be silly, but I would like to see the Hulk as a regular cosmic character, maybe Dr. Strange as well. I think the magic would a cool addition to a cosmic character.

    I imagine Pulsar(Marvel Woman) would be able to be one.
    I dont think her heart would be in it though.

    I know this is gonna sound weird but I have to say Forge. I always thought he should just build himself a ship and take off and go see the universe. Travel around a while get in to adventures, maybe smuggle some stuff for the Kree, put together his own little band of refuges, kind of a Cain from Kung Fu, just in space. Give him a cast kind of like the people from Firefly, a Skrull security officer, someone from the future for a doctor, maybe a Kree pilot for fun. It could be a kind of fun premice.

    I always found Scalphunter from the maruaders to be Forge's opposite , both are native americans ,both have similiar looks in the past , both are techo wizards and can design weapons on the fly as their mutant powers. They should have been pitted against one another. :)

    Sentry is the obvious powerhouse that can travel the cosmos.

    That's who I thought of, too. She's powerful enough to go cosmic, but she needs some motivation. I hated it when Monica more or less retired to go look after her parents. I'm not sure how to get her into space, unless she joins the fight against the Annihilation Wave, or the Kree come after her for using the codename "Captain Marvel" (which she'd point out she hasn't used in years). Or maybe hooking up with the Titans somehow, she was friendly enough with Genis.

    Well , Monica was in the space station with Quasar and she was fighting with Quasar in Space in Avengers : Infinity as well as the starblast crossover. She was also in space when she tried to captured Genis for the Controller. She has had experience in space.

    Here was my idea, kind of a throw back to the old cheezy 70's space stories, and kind of a comedy series.
    Forge finally decides to try and make some "bank" off his abilities and works on a communications device that works better than anything here on Earth, better range, sound, doesn't loose signal in a tunnel. He picks up some foreign language, he doesn't immediatly recognize, then he hears another language, then another. Curious he builds a "universal translator" and discovers it's a distress call from space. He decides to "check it out". First he stops by Stark Industries and asks for Avengers assistance Tony explains that he's got the whole Civil War thing going on. (Forge being a mutant and having worked for the government is already registered) Tony does hook him up with some of the Avengers files on alien races. Forge not finding anyone to help him builds his own ship and takes off. He uses the distress beacon to hone in on where they are at. Due to his mutant ability he builds in a stardrive. When he gets to the signal he comes across a devestated vessel. He finds several different aliens who he learns were on their way to the "paradise planet" Ky'lun, as one describes it. On their way they were attacked by "insect" like beings who had eaten everyone else but as they got to the last ones were called away to attack a massive power source (like a giant stardrive) Forge not knowing anybetter agrees to take them where they were going. He is unwittingly lead to a planet resembleing a giant LasVegas. Thinking this may be a once in a life time experience Forge goes about siteseeing but just ends up gambling, getting drunk and getting married. However he didn't marry her under his real name, or his real species he tells her his name is Charles Xavier, and that his species is called a Metepopsykle (yes a not to the 5th element there) this is how he justifies getting married. He awakens on his shuttle, and after figuring out where he is he makes his way to the bridge, bumping in to the aliens he picked up earlier. After alot of freaking out he learns that his "wife" is from a species that lays eggs in the males and that the young eat the fathers. They explain that he came to them for help and they misdirected his wife and all met back up on his ship. After a laugh about what had happened they had a few more and decided to go "explore the galaxy" so one of the aliens (some new type I'm thinking humanoid with multiple arms and legs but kind of a snout) convinced him to disconnect the navigation system and hit the stardrive and just go. Unfortunatly Forge had drank enough he was highly agreeable and said yes, and they had continued with this behavior of flying through space from space bar to space bar for a couple weeks. So 2 weeks later (Earth time), Forge wakes up, the ship's a mess and they had been traveling without navigation so he has no where to use as a point of reference. He reconnects his ships navigation computer to begin plotting his way and hope to find a way back. Trying to find his way back, they agree to help with a planets evacuation from Galactus, they get lost in Kree space, and have to get out with out alerting anyone, as they get out the stumble in to Skrull space and have to get out of there as well, they stumble across a planet infested with Brood, basically just get in to adventures. Finally at the end of say the sixth issue a stargate opens and a ship comes through hyperspace. It's Forges "wife" and she's angry, and she begins to open fire, without setting any coordinates just trying to get out of the situation Forge punches the stardrive, and heads off to who knows.

    Monica/Pulsar is a main character in 'Nextwave', if anyone here didn't know.

    As for which character should be cosmic? Easy: Jean Grey from 'X-Men'. I mean, she is linked to the Phoenix Force and the Phoenix Force IS a cosmic entity after all...

    With the directions Marvel is going, I wouldn't be suprised for Wolverine to show up in space as a cosmic character.

    Makes you wonder why we never saw a Wolverine vs. predator, or Aliens vs Wolverine comic.

    That's pretty good but I need more action. Firefly is a great type of show but Joss Whedon can't do Forge justice. Forge should go it alone, and explore the universe getting into fights in which he displays his ubertech and magical abilities and occasionally runs into a fan favorite like Silver Surfer or Thanos. That would be a great way to reinvent the character and make him the premminent tech-god in the MU.

    When I said Firefly type, I just meant that mismatched type of cast. A whiney person, a gung ho type or two, a funny person, a ho, just a melting pot of characters... oh, and Joss for all his greatness would not be the writer I would want. I know you're not attacking my idea I just wanted to clarify what I was getting at.
