For purposes of this list, in order to think outside the
box, I’m ruling out those properties that have already had a series or pilot/TV
special: Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Captain America, Hulk, Power Pack, Nick
Fury Agent of SHIELD, Generation X.
Daredevil and Thor technically also had backdoor pilots via Incredible
Hulk specials.
