Recently I tried to create a “which Marvel superheroes still have parents?” infographic, but had to give up when the results got too complicated. To whit:
- Mantis, Gamora and Nebula all grew up with evil fathers (well, “fathers”) but only one of those evil fathers is dead
- Scarlet Witch’s parents have been erased due to rights issues
- Is Tony technically Vision’s dad???
- Both Peters have lost a total of three parents each: Peter P has lost Richard, Mary and Uncle Ben, and Peter Q has lost Meredith, Ego and Yondu.
- Queen Ramonda is the only living (biological) superhero mum in the entire MCU
- Should I count Peter Q as Groot’s adopted father??
- Seriously, is Tony Vision’s dad?
In the comics, Hank created Ultron who created Vision, and the comics fairly consistantly treat Hank as Vision’s granddad. So I’d…it’s a liiittle more complicated than that in the movie? But probably yeah Ultron is Vision’s dad, he did most of the legwork, which would make Tony and Bruce Vision’s granddad.
That seems fair! (Bearing in mind that I haven’t actually watched Age of Ultron for years…)
