Summary
I do it the perfect Marvel Comics storyline that could be conform for theMCUto address major Mantis mysteries that were left unanswered afterGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 . James Gunn ’s final MCU movie did a in effect job of wrapping up escaped ends , but I ’m still curious about the luck of the members of the oldGuardians of the Galaxy team , which have been left open - all over . This includes Pom Klementieff ’s Mantis , who leave the team - along with Peter Quill , Gamora , Nebula , and Drax - to venture on a solo journeying of ego - discovery .

Pom Klementieff Could Return In A Special Presentation After GOTG Vol. 3
Marvel Studios Has Only Released Two Special Presentations So Far
Pom Klementieff recently talk toAgents of Fandomat this class ’s Superhero Comic Con , and suggested that she is"always open"to payoff to the MCU.Some of herGuardians of the Galaxycastmates have evoke thatVol . 3was the end of the line for their hero , but Mantis ' story may only just be beginning . While there have n’t been any furtherGuardians of the Galaxymovies confirm , andChris Pratt ’s Legendary Star - Lordis the only Guardians penis known to be generate , I remember Mantis ' story could continue in her own Special Presentation .
So far , Marvel Studios has only release two Special Presentations : Werewolf by NightandThe Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special . Both these project have been enormously successful , so I ’m a second confused about why Marvel seems to have desert this hopeful concept so chop-chop . The Special Presentations could be revived with Mantis in mind , however , as her solo journeying afterGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3could be compacted into an hour - prospicient dangerous undertaking , and I think one substantial Mantis storyline from Marvel Comics would be perfect for this task .
Marvel Comics’ Celestial Madonna Storyline Fits Mantis’ MCU Backstory Perfectly
The Celestial Madonna Is Destined To Give Birth To An Incredibly Powerful Child In Marvel Comics
Back in the seventies , Marvel Comics revealed thatMantis was actually the Celestial Madonna , a being destined to give nascence to an incredibly powerful tyke , the Celestial Messiah . Even though there has n’t yet been any mention of the Celestial Madonna as an personal identity for Mantis in the MCU , this would be a fantastic storyline to explore in a likely Special Presentation featuring the former Guardian of the Galaxy . If anything , this makes mother wit as Mantis is the daughter of a Celestial , so she may have some dormant abilities , similarly to Peter Quill .
Marvel Comics’Celestial Madonnastoryline also developed Mantis human relationship to other heroes , as she was then operating with the Avengers on Earth . Pom Klementieff ’s Mantis has previously met Earth ’s Mightiest Heroes , so it makes sense that she could , at some head , make her way back to Earth , perhaps to reunify with Peter Quill . This could introduce a more comical - precise Swordsman , debut the cosmic Cotati in the MCU , establish Mantis as a meaning hero without the Guardians of the Galaxy , and lend back a presently - disappointing supervillain .
Tony Dalton play a variation of the Swordsman , named Jack Duquesne , in the MCU’sHawkeyeseries , but this variant was a far shout from the Marvel Comics Avenger , who fall in love with Mantis and position down his life for her .
Mantis As The Celestial Madonna Can Make A Multiversal Villain Scary Again
Mantis Becomes A Target For Kang The Conqueror As The Celestial Madonna
Kang ’s former failures could be ignored , and he could become an even more terrific villain forwards of Avengers 5 and Secret Wars .
Despite being set up as the primary opponent of the MCU ’s Multiverse Saga , Kang the Conqueror and his villainous variantshaven’t present much of a threat so far . In fact , Kang ’s variant have been killed off in every project they have appeared in , as Sylvie dispatched He Who continue inLokiseason 1 , Scott Lang and Hope van Dyne defeat the Conqueror himself inAnt - Man and the Wasp : Quantumania , and Victor Timely met his demise several time inLokiseason 2 . Exploring theCelestial Madonnastoryline is the best way for Marvel to deepen this pattern .
Kang abducts Mantis during Marvel Comics’Celestial Madonnastoryline , hop-skip to use her to create a powerful inheritor for his timeline - cross empire . If this plot line is explored in a likely Mantis - focalize project followingGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 , Kang ’s former failures could be ignored , and he could become an even more terrifying villain ahead ofAvengers 5andSecret Wars . to boot , this would make Mantis one of the most important submarine in the Multiverse Saga , give the underused Pom Klementieff a probability to really showcase her talent .
