Blackjack O'Hare is a fictional anthropomorphic hare in Marvel Comics. The character, created by Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema, first appeared in The Incredible Hulk #271 (May 1982).
Blackjack O'Hare is a mercenary and leader of the Black Bunny Brigade. He was hired by Judson Jakes and Lord Dyvyne to kidnap Lylla, the C.E.O. of Mayhem Mekaniks. He planned on betraying his employers by marrying Lylla and inheriting the company, but was found out. He was rescued by Rocket Raccoon and after a series of incidents that caused him to question his own loyalty, he aided Rocket in defeating the tyrants and left with his new friends to start a new life.[1]
All this appeared to be false when Rocket visited Halfworld and discovered that Blackjack, along with Lylla and Wal Rus, were all actually service animals for the mental patients who inhabited the planet. Blackjack married Lylla after Rocket left to ensure the imprisonment of a dangerous criminal.[2]
However, this story was immediately retconned as Blackjack returned as a mercenary and adversary to Rocket and Groot. Blackjack was once again working for Dyvyne with his next assignment being that he kidnap Princess Lynx. Rocket, Groot and Wal Rus arrived to defeat Blackjack, his brigade and Dyvyne, once again.[3]
He turned up again, disguised as an impostor Rocket and framing him for a series of murders.[4] He reveals his identity to Rocket and claims that the reason for framing him was that he ruined his chance to assassinate Princess Amalya and destroyed his reputation in the process. Amalya had become a "General" and arrived with Rocket's ex's in an effort to exterminate him themselves. Blackjack considered the possibility of assassinating her now, but was shot by Amalya because he was talking out loud. As a last ditch effort he fires a missile at Rocket, but it gets deflected and Blackjack is presumably killed.[5]

Okoye is a member of the Dora Milaje in Marvel Comics. The character, created by Christopher Priest and Mark Texeira, first appeared in Black Panther Vol. 3 #1 (November 1998).
She joined alongside her friend Nakia to be among T'Challa's wives-in-training. However, when Okoye discovered that T'Challa had no interest in marrying either of them, she immediately came to accept this.[6] She has since stood at T'Challa's side preferring only to speak in Hausa. Okoye accompanied T'Challa when he recruited Queen Divine Justice.[7] She was also with T'Challa when they tested Kasper Cole on whether he was worthy of the Black Panther garb. Okoye herself tested Kasper if he would stay with his pregnant girlfriend or leave her for Okoye.[8]

Danai Gurira portrays Okoye in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.[9]
- Okoye appears in Black Panther where she is the head of the Dora Milaje. She has the utmost respect for T'Challa and the nation of Wakanda and is the lover of W'Kabi. She stands beside T'Challa for the majority of the film, but is forced to switch her allegiance to Erik Killmonger when he usurps the throne. After seeing that T'Challa is alive, and thus still legally King with the personal combat challenge incomplete, she leads the Dora to fight against Killmonger the moment he invalidates his own claim by refusing to continue the challenge. During W'Kabi's fight with M'Baku, Okoye eventually convinces W'Kabi to stand down causing those fighting alongside him to also stand down.

Emily Osborn

Emily Osborn is a supporting character in Marvel Comics. The character, created by J. M. DeMatteis and Sal Buscema, first appeared (as a photo) in The Spectacular Spider-Man #180 (September 1991). She was Norman Osborn's wife and Harry Osborn's mother. Emily was apparently the only person that Norman ever showed love to, but their son's birth had weakened her, with her dying sometime after.[11]
Emily turns up alive where she faked her death and poses as a woman named "Emma", a nanny hired by Liz Allan to be there for Normie Osborn and Stanley Osborn.[12] She later took blood samples of her grandchildren for unknown reasons.[13]
During the "Go Down Swinging" storyline, Emily finds out that Red Goblin (which is her husband possessed by the Carnage symbiote) is coming after their grandchildren. To keep Normie and Stanley safe, Emily abducts the two.[14] Liz had tracking chips placed in the children as Liz, Mark Raxton, and Harry find the children and discover that "Emma" is actually Emily. When Red Goblin attacks, Emily gets away with Harry, Liz, Mark, Normie and Stanley while Red Goblin fights with Silk, Miles Morales, Human Torch and Clash. When Red Goblin defeats the group and catches up with the Osborn family, Emily witnesses Red Goblin place a fragment on the Carnage symbiote on Normie.[15] When Red Goblin throws Emily through the window, she is saved by Spider-Man. Emily leaves the area with Stanley. Following Red Goblin's defeat, Emily meets up with the rest of the Osborn family at Alchemax where she is forgiven for abandoning her family.[16]
Alternate versions of Emily Osborn
The Ultimate Marvel version is renamed Martha Osborn. Martha is killed by a muscular, grotesque, demonic-like monster.[17][18]
Emily Osborn in other media
- Emily Osborn is alluded in the 2002 movie Spider-Man. A picture of her can be seen. It is revealed that she left Norman Osborn and Harry Osborn, taking some of Norman's money; Norman believes Mary Jane Watson (Harry's girlfriend) is just another gold-digger like Emily.
- Emily Osborn has non-voiced appearances in The Spectacular Spider-Man cartoon series. She appears in the episodes "Competition", "Blueprints" and "Final Curtain". She hasn't said a single word, and she doesn't appear interested in anything that's going on around her. She was briefly considered a suspect as the Green Goblin's true identity. Had there been a third season, the character would've been voiced by Marina Sirtis.
