It is Valentine’s Day today, and with another major Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movie coming up – featuring not one, but two Ant-Men and Wasps – we’ve decided to take a look at some of the most prominent superhero couples in the MCU and how they compare to their comic books versions.

By “superhero couples”, we mean that both partners are established superheroes within the MCU. For that reason, we’re ruling out Peter Parker and Mary Jane, Doctor Strange and Christine Palmer, and also Bruce Banner and Betty Ross.
