    Personally,
    Spoiler: show
    I was surprised that World War Hulk bested him, but then again, that version of the Hulk was angry enough to beat Black Bolt (even though that was retconned) and could only be dealt with by The Sentry (who is touted as powerful as a million exploding suns). So yeah it's questionable once we get into DBZ powerlevels.
    Honestly when I think of Dr. Strange I think of the Flash. Both characters have displayed monumental like Earth fucking shattering power yet they have to be written so they aren't as godlike. Otherwise what's the point of the comic if you can simply snap your fingers and turn a country to dust or run so fast you literally go back in time.

    In the Infinity Gauntlet comic, Strange plays a minor, albeit strategic role so perhaps the definition of power won't be a big deal in the movies.

    That's what I don't get. If Strange was powerful enough to ward off the infinity gems, why didn't he just take the gauntlet from Thanos?

    Author limitation in one instance, plot device in another. He simply wasn't as strong as the combined power of the Infinity Gems in Thanos' possession, even with his full array of artifacts. He was able to stay toe-to-toe with Gauntlet powered Adam Warlock because Warlock wasn't taking advantage of the Soul Gem and Strange capitalized on that fact. I have no doubt in my mind that Strange should have plotkai'd his way to the top if the authors wanted. At one point he was second only to Eternity in the comics.

    Thanos was holding back against the other heroes on purpose, just to give everyone a chance. Still rolled everyone.

    Spiderman played part in the original infinity war storyline, so there's definately precedence for him being there :D

    am I wrong or was it during infinity wars that Spidey found venom suit?

    Following main marvel canon, yes. Doppelganger was created by the Character Adam Warlock aka Magus during the Infinity War.

    Still no response from Marvel or Disney.

    I would like to see him in it, as far as him not helping much he would probably be better than black widow anyway.

    Spidey is stronger than Captain America but weaker than Hulk. Anyone who thinks he wouldn't be helpful has clearly never read Spider-Man. He can pick up cars, ffs.

    Powers aside, he's also pretty smart and good with tech. Not on the Tony Stark or Bruce Banner level, but he'd probably be able to contribute. He'd be good for some humor, if nothing else.

    With so many of the avengers going MIA/KIA during or after Avengers 2, we need some fresh meat to bring the comedy in.

    Hopefully Star Lord makes it in somehow.

    If I remember right, doesn't the Venom costume make Spider Man pretty broken? Eddie Brock had no super powers to begin with and was powerful as fuck with the costume, kicked Spider Man's ass since he no longer had it. So someone that is already a super hero wearing it, would be pretty ridiculous.
