Underrated Marvel & DC Characters Fortnite Must Add Next

Fortnite _ can capitalize on some of Marvel and DC's most underrated characters, by adding skins for some of comics' most underrepresented heroes and villains. While some players would agree that it's wrong for Marvel and DC characters to be in _Fortnite , with their use of the game's guns undermining some of their characters and leaving their unique powers unutilized, there is a benefit to these crossovers. Comic books are a crowded medium, with hundreds of heroes and villains headlining their own stories, each with unique powers, backstories, and relationships. As such, every one of these characters is somebody's favorite. While certain characters are more popular than others, even the lesser-known ones often have devoted followings, with many having starred in their own acclaimed comic book story-a

With the recent addition of an unlockable Doctor Strange in Fortnite , it appears that the comic book crossovers in the game aren't going anywhere anytime soon. Since many of Marvel and DC's most popular characters are either already in the game or Les Paul Gaming controller just plain don't work as a playable skin, it's time that Epic Games should look to some of the more underused comic book heroes, anti-heroes, and villains who would fit right into the game. Doing so could not only give Fortnite players an interesting surprise but could also convince hardcore fans of the characters to try Fortnite out, especially since their favorite character is rarely playable in anything e

The Thirteenth Doctor’s exhibit recites her belief that life is a "work in progress," while a mannequin bears her signature coat and trousers. This powerful line is uttered by Jodie Whittaker’s incarnation in the episode "The Woman Who Fell To Earth," as she details her plan to rescue Karl from the villainous Tim Shaw. It’s an inspirational piece of dialogue from the Doctor, with her words having struck a chord with many of the show’s f

Fortnite can take advantage of Sam Wilson's new role by adding the character as both the Falcon and Captain America. While Fortnite 's Marvel crossovers are getting boring , Sam Wilson is a unique and popular enough character to justify being added as a playable skin. Not only is Sam a great representation of the MCU's next wave of Avengers, but his abilities would also make him exciting to see in-game. Since gliders are a major part of Fortnite 's gameplay, Sam Wilson's mechanical Falcon wings (which he still uses as Captain America) would make for a fun integrated glider, allowing him to soar through Fortnite 's island in style. Leaning into his comic roots, it could also be fun to see his trusty falcon, Redwing, as a pet compan

The Cracks In Time cause many problems for the Doctor and his companions throughout Matt Smith’s tenure, as they cause some of the show’s most popular characters to be erased from the time stream. The fissures are most closely associated with Amy Pond, having first been seen on her bedroom wall in "The Eleventh Hour," and temporarily removed her fiance Rory Williams from existence. Its inclusion in Fortnite harks back to this most famous period of the sci-fi series, as the Crack In Time leers ominously over the brave pla

This mention of the Thirteenth Doctor’s favorite snack is a deliberate call-back to "The Ghost Monument," which introduces the TARDIS’s custard cream dispenser. Upon learning of her ship’s eccentric new contraption, the Doctor gleefully grabs a biscuit from the shoot, as she enthuses about the TARDIS’s handy new feat

Because of the diversity of comic book rosters, there are a lot of opportunities to make crossovers that work well. While characters like Hulk can't be playable in Fortnite , other heroes fit in a lot better. For instance, Black Widow (who is an expert with firearms) fits in perfectly with the rest of Fortnite's gun-wielding roster. Since often the more popular heroes, such as Batman and Spider-Man, are at odds with their characters shooting Fortnite's guns, it leaves Epic Games with the perfect opportunity to explore some of the superhero genre's lesser utilized characters. There are dozens of beloved characters that rarely (if ever) make their way into video games as playable characters, often because developers aren't sure if an expensive game surrounding a lesser-known character (even one with a cult following) will s

As seen in the trailer for Fortnite Chapter 3, Season 3, Darth Vader can be seen blocking enemies' hits with a lightsaber and then throwing it at pickaxe them, and it was circling back like a boomerang. This may very well be why there is no lightsaber pickaxe in Fortnite , as it may confuse players whether it is the weapon or just the
