If you haven’t watched the new Echo television series on Disney+ Hotstar yet, then I highly recommend you do so (Read our review here!) It may not feature a major superhero, but in Maya Lopez a.k.a Echo, you have arguably one of Marvel’s most interesting female characters.

Created in 1998 by David Mack, in the comics, Echo is a deaf superhero with strong ties with Daredevil, and has the power to “echo” any ability she witnesses.
