About This Quiz

We are pretty sure your real dad is probably a swell guy and all, but is he super? You might think he's super, but has he ever gone into the darkest reaches of space to fight off an intergalactic threat from beyond? Has he handled a guy with a red skull for a face for trying to take over the world? Did he build his own suit of armor in a cave in the middle of nowhere that became the basis of his world-saving powers? Has he ever saved the entire race of Asgard because it was the right thing to do? Probably not.

If your dad could be one of the Avengers, we're sure he would be great at it. But for now, if you had to pick from the existing Avengers and the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe crew, who do you think your dad would be? Which of these heroes would be up to the task of being the guy in your backyard grilling up burgers and fatherly advice on the weekend and then grilling bad guys 9-to-5 during the week? There's no time like the present to find out, so take the quiz and see.
