In Marvel Cinematic Universe continuity, Hope is absolutely not here for anyone\u2019s nonsense. Not her father\u2019s, not Scott Lang\u2019s, not any of the myriad of bad guys she\u2019s punched in the face. Losing her mother at a young age might have hardened the hero when it comes to dealing with others, but Wasp knows what it takes to keep the world spinning. Even if that means making the tough call.<\/p>\n<hr noshade=\"noshade\" \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.entertainmentearth.com\/s\/?query1=squirrel+girl&amp;utm_source=ee-blog&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=product\"><strong>Squirrel Girl<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<hr noshade=\"noshade\" \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_62108\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-62108\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-62108\" src=\"https:\/\/www.entertainmentearth.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/1200x630_wom_squirrelgirl-640x336.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"336\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-62108\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Source: Marvel<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>The phrase \u201cit takes all kinds of kinds\u201d rings true for superheroes as well.

Instead, it was she who got bitten by the radioactive spider instead of Peter Parker. While there are many things that change from Earth to Earth, one thing remains the same: superheroes are viewed as menaces to society. In Earth-65\u2019s defense, she did (kind of) kill Peter, but he was a giant lizard at the time.
