Which Marvel characters would you like to see have their own game?

I’ve been wanting to try the Villainous series, and the Marvel edition would be a great addition to include. I’d like to see a game specific to Captain America.
So far I’m loving Marvel Champions. I’m hoping against hope for the inclusion of the X-Men at some point.
I really want the new X-Men: Insurrection game that hasn’t been released. They need an X-Men villain Villainous. Magneto, Apocalypse, Sinister, Dark Phoenix, Sauron, Master Mold…
I would love most games on this list! Champions, United, Villainous, Legendary, Crisis Protocol. It feels like Marvel characters are pretty well covered by games at this point. Maybe more Defenders?
The Hero Rush game looks great. Something X-Men would be exciting.
Wakanda forever
