• Doctor Fate not only wields sorcery of a power and diversity that rivals his nearest Marvel Universe counterpart — he also has the classic power suite of a Flying Brick, above and beyond those magical abilities.
• Doctor Strange Depending on the Writer is either this or a Squishy Wizard, although he’s mostly this. Besides his Reality Warper abilities, Strange been trained in martial arts by Tibetan monks and he can boost his physical abilities with magic such as channeling the power of a God (which helped him give Hulk a good thrashing in World War Hulk) and he can usually bind foes far out of his weight class with his famous Crimson Bands of Cyttorak. He’s a Master Swordsmen who has access to a Cool Sword which can hurt people in their astral forms.

• Ghost Rider might not be usually duking it out with the Hulk or Thor (though he is in their same power class if not stronger), but he usually fights his demonic foes physically. But he also possesses Hellfire, can reconstitute himself and heal others, and his most powerful weapon is the Penance stare. He was even a candidate for Sorcerer Supreme.
• Grimjack is primarily a warrior, but he knows somethings about magic. He's better with guns and swords though. It's stated while he has a great deal of magical power, he doesn't have a great deal of control over the power.
• Heroes Reborn (2021): In addition to his Super-Speed, Blur possesses the ability to see into other realms and dimensions as well as encyclopedic knowledge of all magic. Downplayed in that he doesn't use his other mystical abilities very often, as his otherworldly sight typically requires him to sit still and meditate, which is pretty difficult for him, for obvious reasons.

• The Mighty Thor. Though his magical ability is mostly limited to Weather Manipulation, he has shown surprising proficiency with illusion magic in recent years, noting that he learned a few things while growing up with Loki.
• Nemesis the Warlock: Nemesis is a demonic space warlock, who is more than willing to engage opponents in sword fights rather than simply use his magic against them.
• The eponymous Spawn has a vast array of magical powers in addition to his superhuman strength and endurance. These include teleportation, necromancy, and firing blasts of necroplasmic energy.
• X-Men:
  • The other-dimensional, six-armed, cyborg, warrior-sorceress Spiral, who is one of Mojo's most trusted servants.
