%%Needs context about her previous role.*** ComicBook/{{Storm}} does kick some serious ass, but gets little screen time overall, and doesn't have many lines until midway into the movie. {{Justified|Trope}} as her part was diminished due to Creator/HalleBerry's pregnancy.

** This happens to ComicBook/{{Storm}}, of all people. She is a major character in the comics, one of the most recognizable members of the X-Men, and featured as one of the main cast members of nearly all the previous animated adaptations. In this adaptation, she's portrayed as a background character to give Wolvie a bigger role. In fact, there's no real reason for Storm's presence in this adaptation at all since she doesn't factor into any of the story lines and the episode where she rejoins the team has nothing to do with the overall plot. It's possible that the writers only threw her in because viewers are used to seeing her in the comics and other adaptations.

*** Dr. Selvig also returns from ''Film/{{Thor}}'', in a role that's more plot-important but doesn't necessarily get any more screentime.



** Hogun the Grim makes a brief appearance early in ''Film/ThorTheDarkWorld'', having remained in his home realm to help rebuild it after the Marauders' attack; has another appearance, no more than a reaction shot, during the portal-hopping battle of the finale.
** Hogun and the rest of the Warriors Three (Fandral and Volstagg) fare ''[[FromBadToWorse even worse]]'' in ''Film/ThorRagnarok'', [[spoiler: getting killed in the first act, and with Fandral not even having any lines]].



** [[ComicBook/SpiderMan Peter]]'s late Uncle Ben is never shown or even mentioned by name in the movies, with his role as Peter's father figure usurped by Tony Stark. The only evidence of his existence in the MCU is his initials on Peter's suitcase in ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'', which gets destroyed with it being PlayedForLaughs despite it being apparently all he has to remember him by.

%%Needs context about how the size of his role has changed.** Polaris's long time partner ComicBook/{{Havok}} has gotten it just as bad. Despite being Cyclops' brother, Havok's role in story arcs and big events after his debut has consistently been comparatively small compared to rest of his family.

** Scorpia was introduced in 1995 as a DistaffCounterpart to Scorpion, with the individual quirks of having [[TheMafia Mafia]] connections and a tendency to hit on AnythingThatMoves. She was featured prominently for a year or two, got a spotlight issue in 2002, and has since been reduced to mostly appearing in crowd scenes.
