Marvel honors some of its heroic dads for Father's Day, though its post also includes some eyebrow-raising picks... like Thanos. 😳
Marvel greets all of the MCU's superhero dads for Father's Day 2022, but also includes some eyebrow-raising picks like Thanos. More than ten years after it began, the MCU is still going strong with a robust mixture of movies and television shows. Currently, the behemoth franchise is unraveling its latest Disney+ series, Ms. Marvel, while gearing up for the July release of Thor: Love and Thunder. Beyond that, Marvel has She-Hulk in August and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in November.
When the MCU started in 2008, fathers were already a big part of the franchise's storytelling. Tony Stark was dealing with his problematic relationship with Howard Stark in both Iron Man and Iron Man 2. Meanwhile, in Thor, Odin's parenting of Thor and Loki received plenty of attention. Beyond Phase 1, fathers have come in all shapes and sizes. Hawkeye and Ant-Man are the most prominent family men in the franchise, not to mention Hank Pym.
As sweet as this post is, the comment section is littered with criticisms from fans. Some of them point out that it completely misses Tony, who didn't have a kid until the last five years of his life but functioned as a pseudo-dad for some characters like Vision, Peter Parker, and Nebula. Others oppose both Thanos and Odin's inclusion in this list.
Granted that no father is perfect and the MCU has shown its fair share of flawed but devoted patriarchs, it remains questionable about whether Thanos deserves to be a part of the above post. Despite Marvel Studios' attempt to humanize the villain, he was still abusive to his kids. If anything, Shang-Chi's Wenwu better fits the bill of disillusioned fathers who genuinely loved their kids.
