Key Takeaways

  • Werewolf by Night‘s success in the MCU paves the way for more supernatural heroes and teams.
  • The introduction of Legion of Monsters in Werewolf by Night’s sequel is anticipated.
  • Bringing in various supernatural creatures from Monster Metropolis could expand the MCU’s paranormal community.

As a gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the vibrant world of Marvel, I can’t help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation that borders on giddy at the prospect of the Legion of Monsters making their debut in the MCU through Werewolf by Night’s sequel. The intrigue surrounding these supernatural beings has been building since the success of Agatha All Along, and it seems Marvel is finally ready to unleash the full potential of their paranormal community.


It seems that viewers are increasingly drawn to the supernatural elements within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), as evidenced by the acclaim for “Agatha All Along”. As the MCU’s narrative progresses, stories are becoming more focused on blending magical and mystical aspects with cosmic themes. There is a growing appetite among fans for additional supernatural characters within the MCU. Following the postponement of Blade’s solo film, the character “Werewolf by Night” garnered significant success in its Halloween one-shot special.

In another name, he goes by Jack Russell, but in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this character is a potent werewolf battling to suppress his bestial transformations. Accompanying him on his global journeys is his friend, Man-Thing. With Elsa Bloodstone’s aid, they manage to evade the hunters hot on their trail. However, in the comics, there is a renowned team called the Legion of Monsters that Jack belongs to. This group could make its big-screen debut in the upcoming sequel to “Werewolf by Night.

The Legion of Monsters, Explained

Initially, Morbius the Living Vampire, Werewolf by Night, and Man-Thing formed the team. They united to confront a seemingly malevolent entity known as The Starseed, who turned out to be benign. However, their primal instincts overpowered them, causing them to attack each other. This incident left them unwilling to acknowledge their team bond. But things took a turn in the 2010 Legion of Monsters series.

Initially, there were three core members, including N’Kantu, the Living Mummy, and the Manphibian. Later on, Frank Castle, who had recently passed away at the hands of Daken (Wolverine’s son), joined the group. Morbius transformed this deceased individual into FrankenCastle – a monstrous version of The Punisher. Working together to safeguard Monster Metropolis, an underground city for outcast monsters, they employ the Morlock Tunnels for transporting monsters in and out of the city. The Punisher assists in this endeavor, protecting innocent monsters from the Special Forces Monster Hunter division.

Later on, I found myself confronting Elsa Bloodstone, who had sneaked into the city of monsters with the intention of capturing a beast linked to the deaths of several teenagers. Yet, upon her apprehension, it turned out that this creature was tormented by and manipulated by malevolent forces originating from Morbius himself. Subsequently, I encountered Red Hulk, who had arrived in the city due to being troubled by a specter. His presence caused fear among the monsters, and together with Red Hulk, we sought help from Doctor Strange. He eventually identified the ghost as the dark side of Doc Samson, who had recently departed this world, and we managed to drive the spirit away.

Legion of Monsters in the MCU

Previously, the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) introduced several characters similar to those in the initial “Werewolf by Night” installment, including Jack Russell. By introducing Man-Thing and Else Bloodstone as well, they expanded the realm of the supernatural in a unique manner that hadn’t been achieved before. However, it’s just a small fraction of the supernatural entities present within the MCU, and incorporating the Legion of Monsters into the narrative would serve as an excellent means of emphasizing the eerie yet heroic attributes of these creatures who are misunderstood and often feared by humanity.

It’d be fantastic to see characters like Monster Metropolis, N’Kantu (a powerful living mummy), and Manphibian (an alien cosmic character) join Werewolf by Night and Man-Thing in a project. While it might be unlikely for Morbius or an undead Punisher to appear, other supernatural beings could take their places. Characters like Frankenstein’s monster or one of the Ghost Riders from the Marvel universe could help revive the Legion of Monsters.

It’s still uncertain, but it seems that the Legion of Monsters could be the next adventure in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as hinted by Werewolf by Night. This development would expand the roster of MCU monsters and delve into the society where characters like Jack and Man-Thing belong. This exploration could connect to the climax of the first Halloween special, broadening the supernatural aspects of the MCU into a more intriguing part of the paranormal world. This might also introduce other supernatural teams such as the Midnight Sons, the Howling Commandos, and many others. A potential sequel to Werewolf by Night could elevate the monster universe within the MCU to new levels.
