Every Marvel Cinematic Universe superhero, ranked

21. Star-Lord
Star-Lord has a pretty awesome resume when it comes to his time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Peter Quill is, without a doubt, the MCU’s most charming goofball with Ant-Man coming in at a close second, but what really makes this hero standout is the fact that he is a hybrid celestial.
The son of Ego, the Living Planet, can grip an Infinity Stone in his bare hand, and when it comes tricked out gadgets, he’s a regular sci-fi James Bond. All of this isn’t bad for a guy who started out as an orphaned Terran who was raised by Ravagers that were constantly considering eating the young boy.
Even though he somehow, against all the odds, finds a way to do the right thing in the end, the young hero still has a lot to learn about leading a team. He lets his emotions get the better of him, like what went down on Titan against Thanos. His libido also entails him to make some slightly less than stellar situations as well. Once Peter Quill finally decides to grow up, he’ll be among the elite in the MCU. But until then, everyone’s probably better off if he handles any dance contests in which the fate of the universe hangs in the balance.
