These great women and extraordinary moms from the Marvel Universe will make you want to hug the moms in your life!
Several of these women have battled hordes of supervillains, aliens, or battled the fear and hatred of humanity itself. But all of that pales in comparison to her most challenging superhero job: being a mother in the Marvel Universe!
Do not miss: Aunt May: The best example of motherhood in Marvel
Celebrate the six most powerful mothers in the Marvel Universe with a focus on six special heroes who embody what it’s like to raise another.
ramonda
Mother of T’Challa and Shuri
T’Challa has always relied on the advice of his most trusted advisor: Mom. While Ramonda is technically T’Challa’s stepmother, she raised the young prince from his earliest days after her biological mother, N’Yami, died in a complicated childbirth.
Ramonda rose to the occasion to love T’Challa as her own, passing on her unwavering morals to a future king. During a period of political turmoil in Ta-Nehisi Coates’ Black Panther (2016), Ramonda encouraged T’Challa and her daughter Shuri to remain smart, steely and brave despite a wave of violence. Like the calm eye of a storm, Ramonda stands strong against anything.
May Parker
Peter Parker’s Aunt
Without a doubt one of the most important mothers of Marvel. A backbone for Peter Parker through her spider bite, a body swap, and a revolving door of supervillains, May Parker has single-handedly taught Spidey to enjoy those rare moments of peace, no matter how fleeting.
She also embodies the sacrifice required of parents: After losing their own mom and dad, May and her husband Ben stepped up to raise Peter as a loving, studious and kind young adult.
Which is why it was such a heartbreaking moment in Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #600 when Peter finally recognized his Aunt May as “mom.” The timing was right: At her wedding to J. Jonah Jameson Sr., May offered sage advice on the true source of happiness, and surprise, it comes from within.
Freya
Mother of Thor and Loki
The All-Mother of Asgard. A Daughter of the Vanir. The God of the Hunt. And “mom”. At least for Thor Odinson, Loki and Angela.
Frejya, an immortal goddess and reigning ruler of the Ten Realms, has lived in Asgard through soap opera-worthy family drama. The daughter of Odin’s (former) enemy, she became queen of the Eternal Realm, and Thor’s stepmother, through marriage.
Though Thor and Loki aren’t technically related to their mother by blood, it hasn’t made one iota of difference to Freyja’s unconditional love. And while she’s had millennia to understand the ins and outs of parenting, that doesn’t mean she hasn’t slipped up either! Most notably in Mighty Thor (2015) #5 when he made the mistake of trusting Loki.
All of your children are like the opposite sides of a three-sided coin. But despite her differences, she has respected them and shown unlimited support, even fostering a special relationship with the “wild child” Loki. In the retrospective issue War of the Realms: War Scrolls (2019) #2, this link was shown: Freyja encouraged her son to show the best side of her, even when others only see the troublemaker.
Jubilee
Shogo’s mother
Jubilation Lee, aka Jubilee, Fireworks Generator, was considered the baby of her mutant family, until she had a baby of her own.
In X-Men (2013), X-Woman evolved from a mall dweller to a mother when she adopted Shogo, an orphaned boy who was used as a host for an ancient sentient bacteria.
At first, every part of parenting was a curveball for Jubilee, made more difficult by constant attacks from alien enemies. But with the help of her supportive teammates, including former Gen X classmate Chamber, Jubilee overpowers him.
Now living with baby Shogo on the mutant island nation of Krakoa, Jubilee and her little sidekick kicked Otherworld’s butt in Excalibur (2019). Just like her mom, Shogo is a brave and cool kid.
Morales River
Mother of Miles Morales
Teenage Spider-Man Miles Morales has an especially close bond with his mother, Rio, and the two share a passion for science. More than that, Miles shared his costumed identity with his mother in Spider-Man (2016) #15, and even revealed his fears about needing to kill three issues later.
Rio didn’t miss a beat as his son shared his deepest, darkest parts, providing him with an emotional safety net to unload the burden of a hero.
Rio is Miles’s fiercest ally. she is firm she is fair and she has a sensible policy.
Sue Storm
Mother of Frankin and Valeria Richards
Susan “Sue” Richards went from Marvel’s First Lady to Marvel’s First Mom! In FANTASTIC FOUR ANNUAL (1963) #6, aka “Let There Be Life,” the Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic welcomed their son Franklin after a disappointing pregnancy.
And baby Valeria made four in FANTASTIC FOUR (1998) #54 (although Doctor Doom would take partial credit for saving the baby’s life).
The Invisible Woman is on our list because, like her impenetrable force fields, she’s equipped for the unexpected. Whether battling strange enemies in the Negative Zone, getting caught on the front lines of galactic warfare, facing a universal incursion, or coming to terms with her son’s vast powers over reality, Susan Richards has kept her cool, led fiercely, and loved dearly. . As a founding member of FF, she is not only the most powerful member of it, she is the heart of it.
