A thread on the Marvel Rivals sub on Reddit has gone viral as it compares the art of the game versus that of the failed Marvel’s Avengers video game. It’s also made its way to X.
Wow, what a difference. And as I tweeted, it’s hilarious to see comments from fans that state they never noticed the art for Marvel’s Avengers is bad. Open your eyes, bro, lol.
Marvel Rivals Vs Marvel’s Avengers cosmetic comparison

Typically what happens is the fans see “Marvel” or “Avengers” (or whatever their favorite brand is) and accept it no matter what it looks like. That’s why you’ll have bozos defending things like Ms. Marvel, Captain Marvel, The Acolyte, etc. However, thankfully, most fans aren’t zombies, and as we’ve seen, all those previous concepts have been completely rejected.
Speaking of getting completely rejected, below you can check out a side by side comparison for the character designs for the Marvel Rivals video game versus Marvel’s Avengers. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe Marvel Rivals is developed by an Asian developer while Marvel’s Avengers was developed by an obvious woke American developer. Just imagine, you’re given the Avengers IP to develop into a cool video game and you completely blow it. WTF.
It keeps happening, because it is a deliberate choice, made over and over again.

Defeminization. No waist, no hips, hide the bust, square the jaw.
It’s the Western AAA female modeling formula.
It’s a pattern you can’t ignore. https://t.co/XyQXjbJboE
While the Marvel’s Avengers game failed miserably, Marvel Rivals looks to be a big hit. It’s also growing too as the game just teased the Fantastic Four where the art looks f’n awesome. Marvel Rivals is free to play and is available for PlayStation 5, PC/Windows, and Xbox Series X/S.
