The Most Powerful Female Superheroes Of The Marvel Comicbook Universe

These female superheroes of Marvel Comicbook and Cinemas are finally getting their long-due recognition and our minds are blown!

Marvel has been around since 1939, and it didn't take them long to introduce a female superhero, in the comic book at least. By 1940, Black Widow was introduced and since then, there have been a dozen women in the Marvel universe, both superheroes, and villains. Even though the Marvel Cinematic Universe can seem oversaturated with powerful male characters, the movies, television series, and the original comics have some of the strongest female characters ever written. All these women are physically strong and possess abilities that we can only dream of, they are also emotionally and intellectually superior to their male counterparts.  From telekinetic powers to superhuman strength, most of these ladies would make even the most powerful superhuman run for cover. Since the inception of Black Widow, there have been some amazingly powerful ladies pop up throughout the Marvel series. Women with the ability to manipulate the world around them, fly, create force fields, and many more abilities as such. Although most people have the sense to know that the likelihood of turning into a superhero is slim, the Marvel characters' backstories have given hope to thousands of people for decades. This list consists of some of the characters we hope to see more of because they are, without a doubt are among the most powerful superheroes of the Marvel Universe. 

 

1. Jean Grey/The Phoenix

From the movies itself, it was established that Jean Grey is one of the most powerful mutants on Earth. Even without the enhancement of the Phoenix Force, she is exceptionally talented, so much so that her mutant abilities is on the same level with that of Professor Charles Xavier and even exceeds his when merged with the otherworldly Phoenix Force.

2. Black Widow 

Twitter

Natasha Romanoff, AKA Black Widow, may not have the abilities of a textbook superhero, but she is a master spy. Only a few charcters in the Marvel Universe can match to her skill-set and her time with spy organizations across the globe, as well as working with various masterminds has made her one of the most powerful superheroes of all time. 

3. Scarlett Witch

Twitter

Scarlett Witch is one of those characters that has no limitations to her powers.  Although the Avengersmovies have shown Wanda Maximoff's mutant magic in action, they haven't explored the full range of her abilities, when compared to her comic book character. In the comic book, she has the ability to rebuild reality in order to suit her own desires by using just three little words. She has the ability to change the fate of all the characters in the Marvel Universe and there is no denying that you cannot become stronger than that. 

4. Emma Frost

Twitter

Emma Frost, AKA The White Queen, has telekinetic powers that allow her to create hallucinations in other people's minds. She can also understand exactly what anyone is thinking as long as she is in close enough proximity to them. She was introduced in the X-Men movie series but the extent of her powers were not at all discussed over there. Apart from changing her body into a diamond form, she can also perform psychic attacks to render her enemies useless. 

5. Spider-Woman

Twitter

Said to be the combination of Peter Parker's Spiderman and Natasha Romanoff's Black Widow, Spider-Woman is a formidable force to be reckoned with. Not only does she have every power that Spider-Man has, but she's also a super spy and private investigation, which, in turn, makes her physically strong, as well as tactically and intellectually powerful. Even though her convoluted origin story has been changed a few times, she still remains as one of the most powerful characters of all time. Spider-Woman, AKA Jessica Drew, has had many experiences with both S.H.I.E.L.D. and HYDRA

6. Captain Marvel

Twitter

As the recent 'Captain Marvel' movie showed, she is one of the strongest superheroes in this Universe. Captain Carol Danvers got her otherworldly superhuman abilities when caught in a blast of radioactive energy and she can absorb energy and project it at will, as well as create beams of light and heat. She can also fly and has enhanced physical strength and durability. This Marvel Superhero is blessed with Cosmic awareness that allows her to sense trouble long before it arrives and that gives the fans a lot of hope as to what will happen in the 'Avengers: Endgame' movie that will hit the theaters soon. 

7. Storm

Twitter

Storm is a character who is the part of the 'X-Men' series and has the ability to change weather according to her will. The character is so powerful that even if we say that the extent of her powers is colossal, that would be an understatement.  Storm can literally wipe-out entire areas by calling upon a tsunami, and lightning seems to be her favorite weapon as she can call it down from the sky at any given time to shock her opponents into submission. She is also a natural leader and tends to bring out the best in other's powers. 

8. Rogue

Twitter

One of the Marvel's most popular heroines, Rogue has been a part of the core 'X-Men' team for years now. She has the ability to absorb other mutant's powers with just a simple touch, she was not always the super strong character she is known for today. She spent a good amount of time in her life under the guidance of Mystique, she found the X-Men after immense struggles from permanently absorbing not only Ms. Marvel’s powers but her psyche too. After having two minds exist as one, the Ms. Marvel psyche was ripped out and destroyed, but the Ms. Marvel superpowers remained. With superhuman strength, stamina, durability, reflexes, and ability to fly, Rogue has since remained a beloved member of the X-Men family, even while her powers have fluctuated.

9. Invisible Woman

Twitter

The Invisible Woman, AKA Susan Storm is a founding member of the Fantastic Four and was the first female superhero created during the Silver Age of Comics. She received her powers by being exposed to a cosmic storm and she can deal with light waves which allows her to render herself and others invisible. 

10. Nemesis

Twitter

Nemesis is a Marvel character that resulted of bringing the six Infinity Stones together with the lost "Seventh Gem". Bringing these seven incredibly powerful objects together created this sentient being. She possesses all the powers of each Infinity Stone except she has them on a greater level due to the presence of the "Seventh Gem". So, just imagine the power of Thanos from Infinity War and times that by two or three. Without a doubt, she is the most strongest Marvel character but is also one of the most powerful creations of all time.
