Created by Stan Lee, this creature has firstly appeared in Marvel Comics, but thanks to the films about him, Hulk became more realistic and famous.
Mr. Incredible

A routine job and an uneventful life make ordinary people unhappy, but you would probably be more upset if you had supernatural abilities, like Bob Parr, known as Mr. Incredible. Moreover, Bob has a family, where everyone is a superhero. Thus, ordinary life is not for them. When Mr. Incredible gets a new assignment, he uses his exceptional strength to save the day together with his relatives and friends in the movie The Incredibles.

Thor

Created by Marvel Comics, this superhero was inspired by the namesake North god.

This is one of the best Will Smith’s superhero movies, in which he persuasively played his super character. Hancock does not look like an average superhero. He is disliked by people because of his negative public image and his bad habits. Catching criminals, Hancock can crash cars, damage buildings, and cause destruction in other ways.

NASA Plans to Put an 'Iron Man' Robot on Mars

NASA Plans to Put an 'Iron Man' Robot on Mars


At 6'2", 275 pounds, NASA's latest robot look like a decent football player, but Valkyrie could be earmarked for another human profession — astronaut.
The android — which was built to be a search-and-rescue bot — comes with sonar equipment, cameras embedded from head to feet and a giant backpack battery. Its arms, legs and hips aren't as flexible as a person's, but it moves in a similar fashion, which could be important for studying the limits of human motion on Mars.

"Likely NASA will send robots ahead of the astronauts to the [red] planet," Nicolaus Radford, head of the Dexterous Robotics Lab at NASA, said in a video about Valkyrie. "These robots will start preparing the way for the human explorers. And when the humans arrive, the robots and the humans will work together in conjunction."
Radford wants NASA's Mars-bound robots to help people build houses and lay the foundations of civilization on humanity's second planet, which means these android helpers are taking a big step up from their predecessors that were tasked with chores such as vacuuming.
Valkyrie, which looks so much like Iron Man it even has a glowing orb in its chest, will compete with other androids at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Robotics Challenge. The competition compares robots in categories such as strength and dexterity to determine which would be best to deploy in emergency situations that are too dangerous for people.
The competition looks stiff. DARPA's own robot, Atlas, shows an ability to avoid minor ground obstacles in this YouTube video, and has human-like details down to rotatable wrists. An android built by Team THOR (Tactical Hazardous Operations Robot) also demonstrates that its feet can adjust to changes on the ground.
None of these robots is likely to be the one that first visits Mars, but an advanced version of any of them could see the inside of a space shuttle in the not-too-distant future.
