Russian superheroes: list. Russian superhero (Marvel)

Russian superhero is a fairly common phenomenon for the comics "Marvel". However, few know that today in our country publish their comics with their own superheroes. So, in this article, we'll talk about domestic and foreign superheroes, which are of Russian origin.

Bubble Publishing House

This is the largest Russian publishing house that produces comics. It was founded only recently - in 2012. But, despite this, managed to create and release several series, where the main actors are Russian superheroes. We list the list of these characters below. However, first of all, we note that to date, the publishing house produces six independent series of comics.

Major Igor Grom

Russian superhero Thunder - investigator of the St. Petersburg police. The plot of the comics develops around the confrontation of Thunder and Citizen (Plague Doctor). The supervillain, a man in the mask of a medieval doctor (a plague mask), begins to administer justice, coolly killing the disliked.

The main features of Grom's personality are devotion to Russia and faith in the law. For him, a person who decided to take justice into his hands is just a maniac who needs to be stopped. And not a truth-seeker, who deserves sympathy.

"Exlibrium"

Russian superhero-defenders continue the image of Lilia Romanova. She grew up in a family of eternally busy parents and those who did not understand her peers, so her only friends were the heroes of books, video games and movies. The girls were finding it increasingly difficult to find a common language with reality, so it became increasingly deeper in fictional worlds. However, her life changed dramatically when Lily unexpectedly met with the characters who had fled from the books.

From this moment a new life begins for her. Now she has to enter the ancient order, keeping the boundary between reality and fictional worlds of films, books and video games.

Russian Superheroes

One of the first characters created by the publishing house Bubble. Comic with this character started to appear in 2012.

The main character Danila - a hunter of demons. Once he was an ordinary soldier until his wife and daughter were killed by a demon. From this moment, Danila begins a war with evil spirits, but in the first battle loses. Wounded, bleeding, he dies. However, just before his death, some higher Powers are calling him, calling themselves the Council of Equilibrium. Danile proposes a deal - he agrees to be representative of the Council on the ground and will exterminate the demons, and they will save his life.

The streets of Moscow are filled with criminals, which attracts demons in the capital. The evil spirits conclude a deal with the scoundrels, becoming stronger. If you do not change the situation quickly, the world will be conquered by demons.

Danila agrees with the proposed conditions and becomes Infinite. The hero gets supernormal powers: the magical power to fight evil lies in the tattoos that appeared on his body. In addition, he is given enchanted pistols, which have enough power to kill the demon.

Red Furies

Nika Chaykin is an orphan grown in Russia. In her childhood, she was thrown into the circus, where she gradually mastered acrobatic tricks. However, the talents of little Nicky attracted the attention of an ancient criminal society, called the Brotherhood of the Crow. They kidnapped the girl and forced to undergo a brutal training in the Brotherhood. So Nick learned to steal, fight and manage with firearms.

She finished her education at the age of 12, after which she became a full member of the Brotherhood. And I worked for this organization for many years. However, she remembered perfectly that she was not here of her own free will. And when she had the chance, staged her death and fled the Brotherhood.

From that moment Nika began to work for herself, quickly gaining a reputation as the best thief of the world. However, soon it fell into the hands of an international agency. Before her there was a choice - either to help stop the Third World War, or to be behind bars. Of course, Nike did not want to go to prison. From this moment begins her long cooperation with the government.

Enoch

Another Russian superhero is Andrei Radov, nicknamed the Monk. After the death of his grandfather, the hero inherits a family relic - a cross decorated with stones. Without thinking twice, Andrei takes him to the pawnshop, and buys a car for the money he receives. It is on this machine that he and his brother get into an accident in a few days.

Radov renders in the hospital and falls into a coma. Here he begins to see visions of how his ancestors mined the same stones, encrusting the cross. It turns out that his ancestors for centuries kept Russia from evil. Having learned this, Andrei becomes a continuer of the family business and calls himself Inok.

From this moment, the dangerous and exciting journeys of the hero begin in time.

Russian superheroes "Marvel": list

A lot of characters of Russian origin appeared on the pages of comic books Marvel. The most famous was, mainly thanks to the film industry, the Black Widow, in the former Russian spy. But not only Russian superheroes appeared in American comic books, there were many super-villains too. For example, Red Omega, Rhinoceros, Chameleon and many others. However, once we want to emphasize that below it will be exactly superheroes.

1. The Black Widow

Natalia Romanova, or Black Widow - Russian superhero. Initially she was a KGB employee, then she was on the side of the SHIELD (an organization to combat crime), becoming his agent. The next period - she spied in the SHIELD for the KGB, listed as a double SHIELD agent.

No supernormal abilities are given, except for the fact that she was once introduced an analog of the very serum with which Captain America was created. However, he has an acute mind, good physical training, and possesses many types of firearms and knives.

As noted above, today it is the most popular hero of Marvel of Russian origin, thanks to the films about the Avengers and the game of Scarlett Johanson.

2. The Colossus

Peter Rasputin, or Colossus - Russian superhero from the team of the X-Men. The main ability - turns your body into metal, becoming invulnerable to most physical attacks.

Petra was born in Soviet times on the shore of Lake Baikal, on the collective farm of Ust-Orda. It was from here that he was later kidnapped by Charles Xavier, the founder of the X-Men.

Despite all his strength, Peter is distinguished by a peaceful and calm disposition. Not to mention the fact that for his sentimentality he gave his life. His sister died of a terrible virus called "Heritage". After a while an experimental antidote specimen was obtained from it. For testing, the experimental was needed, and Koloss immediately volunteered. As a result, he died in terrible agony. Fortunately, it later turned out that the dead body of Peter was frozen, but not cremated. This made it possible for the X-Men to kidnap him and resurrect him.

Interesting adventures of the Colossus in Russia post-perestroika period. This was asked of the hero by his distant relative Larissa Mishchenko. Someone systematically began to exterminate all the relatives of Peter. When the Colossus arrived home, it became clear that he was one of the heirs of the same Grishka Rasputin. Sinister (super villain, who opposes the X-Men) decided to resurrect Grishka, for which he had to exterminate all his descendants. Of course, Colossus did everything to ensure that his ancestor remained forever in his grave.

3. Red Guard

Another Russian superhero of the Marvel universe is the Red Guard. Three names were hidden under this name at different times. Created this character was like the Soviet equivalent of Captain America. Their costumes are similar - they both resemble the flag of the country they defend; Similar names; Both of them have the same origin - they were given super whey by serum.

The first Red Guard was Alexei Shostakovich. He was the husband of Natalya Romanova, who was informed that he was killed, although in fact he became the object of a secret experiment. It was in memory of her husband that Natalya became a scout.

Sometimes Alexis is referred to representatives of anti-heroes. This is due to the fact that he very often had to fight with America, defending the interests of his homeland. Nevertheless, before his death, he will save the life of Captain America, not allowing a shot at that.

The next Krasnogvardeets is Vladimir Fomin. Serum by that time was lost, so he did not receive any super abilities, except his own strength and endurance.

And the last Krasnogvardeets - Nikolay Krylenko. As a weapon used sickle and hammer. He was a mutant and could fight with such superheroes as the Hulk or the Iron Man.

4. Blind Faith

Alexei Garnov - Russian superhero ("Marvel"), operating in the times of the USSR. The government of the Soviet Union decided that the threat posed by the mutants was too great. This led to the beginning of a mass extermination of mutants. However, the most interesting representatives of the species were brought to Moscow, where they were experimented with by Wolfgang Weinrich, a former Nazi.

One of those who could openly oppose the new regime was the Catholic priest, a mutant who owns telepathy and empathy - Alexei Garnov. She helps her fellows and begins cooperation with American saboteurs.

His nickname arose from the fact that when he took control of the consciousness of a group of people, his eyes began to glow white.

5. Kraven the Hunter

The last in our list of Russian superhero "Marvel" is Sergey Kravinov, better known as Kraven-Hunter.

By origin - a Russian nobleman. From the youth Kravinov was fond of hunting, but gradually this infatuation developed into a real passion. Kraven does not recognize a firearm and prefers to face the beast face to face. That's why he often uses poisons and cunning traps. At one time, he took a special serum, which enabled him to acquire animal power.

Craven is often credited with villains because he hunted a spider-man. It was this hero that the inveterate hunter considered worthy for himself prey. However, this character is not entirely unambiguous, he was also on the side of good.

Abusively Russian superheroes

Not so long ago in Russia they began to say that we and our superheroes always had enough. Of course, the closest attention was paid to the three epic heroes. And the expression "Russian superhero Ilya of Murom" can be found today almost everywhere.

In addition, very often the "title" of the superhero is attributed to fairy-tale characters. For example, Ivan the Fool, Frog Princess, Moidodyr, Kolobok, Kurochka Ryaba (for her ability to carry golden eggs - obviously a humorous move) and many others. Even Aibolit is credited with super abilities. However, the talents of such superheroes are described quite ironically.

And if the epic heroes are taken quite seriously - their strength can really compete with the abilities of American superheroes - then the erection of fabulous characters in the rank of superheroes clearly has a satirical character.

Tomorrow

Continuing the satirical theme, one can not forget about one of the most famous primordially Russian heroes with a talking name - Tomorrow. Russian superhero with such a nickname, of course, refers to the characteristic line of the Russian people - to leave business for tomorrow.

Tomorrow is not a comic book hero, rather, it's a kind of mythological half-witted character. It is not surprising that he was born, you can say, among the people.

Thus, in Russia there are not only comic heroes, but also fairy-tale characters, to whom super abilities are attributed.
