She flies, she punches, she has a whiny teenage voice actor — everything you could ask for in a superhero. But just because America Chavez is going to appear in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness doesn’t mean we should expect her to be any different than her three predecessors. Under the guidance of Hannibal Buress and the world’s greatest sorcerer, will this young hero rise above it all or have to deal with breakups or boredom like Stan Lee predicted? Here’s everything you need to know about America Chavez’s abilities –

Who Is She?

America Chavez is a warrior from a different world. An orphan, she was raised to be humble and kind. She became one of her universe’s greatest heroes.

As a Marvel character, Ms. America has been at the center of many important Marvel Universe stories that have revolved around the Multiverse. One of her most prominent roles as a superhero was joining an almost entirely-male super team. She was charged with protecting a young sorcerer who would become destined for much more than anyone had imagined. It wasn’t until 2015’s Secret Wars storyline that America finally got to reside in Arcadia, a paradisiacal realm on Battleworld ruled entirely by women.

Ms. America is one of the most powerful people in the Marvel Multiverse, with Loki remarking that she may be indestructible.

One reason for this may be because of how few people have witnessed her killing someone – almost all her enemies have been made the same offer: if they will let themselves die, Ms. America will do so, making sure that everyone she kills survives their experience with her intact – but only a handful agree every time she offers them peace.

Whereas she shares her power with the likes of Thor, Hulk, Angel, and Ghost Rider to boot, it seems that Ms. America’s frequency is always locked onto an episode of Dr. Strange’s adventures which she refers to as a “multiversal GPS.”
