As a final goodbye to the brilliant year Marvel had in 2021, I am listing my top five favorite new additions to the ever growing cast of the MCU. This MCU year was incredible, in more ways than one. I think one of the many reasons I enjoyed it so much was because it was a little bit of joy in the COVID infested world we now live in. I hope Marvel brought you all as much happiness this year as it brought me, and I hope it continues to make you smile. This new year, stay strong, and never stop smiling. As Peter Parker said in What If…?: If we stop smiling when they can’t, then we might as well be gone, too. Higher, Further, Faster, everyone. I’ll see you in the stars.
