While some of these sidekicks and supporting characters aren’t true superheroes, they’re all capable of delivering a powerful punch. Our favorite superheroes would have a lot harder time winning the war without these guys by their side, whether they’re fighting in the trenches, offering moral support, or lounging and hacking into some bad guy’s mainframe.

Would Thor have been able to return to Asgard without Erik Selvig’s assistance? And, without M’Baku and the Jabari, would T’Challa have been able to destroy Kilmonger and Ross’ army? Maybe, but most likely not.  This list includes the best MCU Superhero Sidekicks And Characters of all time.
