Give Us Strength: The Hottest Male Marvel Characters


Give Us Strength: The Hottest Male Marvel Characters


When You Call My Name, It’s Like A Little Prayer

The MCU has blessed us with many handsome faces and rippled bodies over the years. From literal gods with chiseled abs to loveable men of metal, here are some of the hottest men Marvel ever graced us with.

1. Captain America

Whether it’s fawning over Steve Rogers in the comics or drooling over Chris Evans onscreen, Captain America has a special place in our hearts. He’s ripped, he’s smart, and best of all, he’s a good man who respects women.

2. Wolverine

The latest movie reminded us of everything we love about this popular X-Man. Sure, he’s a potty mouth who’s a little rough around the edges, but he’s also a kind-hearted hero who just happens to have a stellar physique.

3. Daredevil

If you weren’t in love with Matt Murdock before, Charlie Cox certainly sealed the deal. He’s a handsome lawyer with a penchant for justice and wooing pretty ladies. Heaven knows he succeeds at both.

4. Gambit

That smooth-talking card thrower charmed his way into plenty of bedrooms over the years. Who could blame them? He’s a powerful mutant, has a great accent, and speaks French. He’s also funny, which is always a plus.

5. Thor

Okay, how could we ignore those abs and luscious locks? Chris Hemsworth aside (though not too far), Thor was always portrayed as a beautiful deity equipped with his trusty Mjolnir. For a god with no physical weaknesses, he sure makes us weak in the knees.

6. Cyclops

Ah, Scott Summers, the only hottie who can rock sunglasses at night. This confident leader is your archetypal hero, trying his best to do what’s right and stand beside his friends. We love a good guy with a handsome face.

7. Iron Man

He’s got the money, he’s got the looks, he’s got the intelligence—and he has our hearts. Tony Stark’s wise-cracking attitude is only outshone by his brilliant mind, and we’re suckers for both. (He’s also the only man on earth who can rock a mustache and goatee combo.)

8. Nightcrawler

Don’t let that blue skin and tail turn you off. X-Men fans have fawned over Nightcrawler for years. Even though he looks demonic, he’s actually one of the nicest guys on the team and a charming mutant with incredible powers.

9. Black Panther

We love a strong-headed leader who turns away from the pomp and frills of superheroism. T'Challa is a step above the rest because he’s a gentle soul unencumbered by an everyday hero’s theatrics, making him handsome for all the right reasons.

10. Spider-Man

How could anyone hate Spider-Man? He’s a sarcastic hero devoted to doing the right thing. The biggest thing about Spidey is that he’s always been the good guy, and he’ll always be a handsome fella ready to make us laugh.

11. Angel

Angel may not be the coolest X-Man but Warren Worthington III is definitely worthy of our love. It’s hard not to lose our minds over someone with those muscles and literal wings. His Archangel arc also gives the bad boy girlies a little something, too. (No, you can’t fix him.)

12. Punisher

Speaking of bad boys, Frank Castle is a definitive antihero. Our neutral king might do some morally questionable things, but we can’t help falling for his constant cut-up look—or Jon Bernthal.

13. Human Torch

Hey hey, we did say “hottest” Marvel characters! Puns aside, female fans have adored Johnny Storm’s quick wit for years. It also doesn’t help that Chris Evans portrayed him in the first cinematic adaptation.

14. Killmonger

Alright, alright—we have to skip past a lot of supervillain stuff on this one, but it’s a list of handsome guys, not moral guys. He already had a dynamite look in the comics, though Michael B. Jordan took it to new levels in the cinematic universe.

15. Falcon

We love a man with wings, so we had to talk about Sam Wilson! He’s not only handsome but was personally appointed the new Captain America by Steve Rogers. A good guy with good looks? We’re in.

16. Colossus

You know what makes a man hot? His personality. Enter Piotr Rasputin: a loveable muscle man who’s as powerful as he is kind. Despite his massive size, he’s X-Men’s gentle giant and we can’t decide whether to be the big or little spoon.

17. Hawkeye

Clint Barton’s a hot mess at times but that doesn’t make him any less attractive. He’s a misunderstood hero with good looks and can rock purple spandex. Call us crazy, but we’re all about it.

18. Ant-Man

This little man takes up a lot of space in our hearts. Funny and smart? Count us in! Though Scott Lang has a questionable past, there’s nothing questionable about loving a fire-haired goofball with a big brain.

19. Loki

Loki in the comics was never particularly attractive, but Loki in the movies is a whole different story. It’s hard to say what we love more about him—his sympathetic backstory or Tom Hiddleston’s portrayal.

20. Bucky Barnes

Poor Bucky Barnes, Steve Rogers’ loyal best friend turned brainwashed Winter Soldier for decades. Make no mistake, though, the real Bucky is a good man with better looks, and we just want to give him the warmest hug.
