4. Daredevil

Weakness: His heightened senses can be his downfall

Matt Murdock lost his sight when he was young. Since then, his other senses have been heightened to superhuman levels. These abilities have made him a human lie detector and more. Wolverine said that Daredevil could hear a pin drop a block away (Wolverine: Enemy of the State). That’s only his hearing; his other senses are great as well. As much as his senses have helped him, however, they’ve also been a hindrance.

Marvel Characters like Typhoid Mary and The Punisher have used speakers on full blast to help them stop The Man Without Fear. Deadpool’s stench has worked against Daredevil because it’s hard to concentrate when he’s around because he smells so bad. No matter how much Daredevil’s powers keep him safe, they’ve put him in positions where he’s almost been killed.

3. The Hulk

Weakness: Bruce Banner

The Hulk will tell anyone that he’s the strongest there is. Unfortunately for the people he’s fought, it’s true. The Hulk has gone toe to toe with almost every hero and villain in Marvel Comics and won. Nevertheless, there’s one weakness that a lot of people have exploited. They’ve got the Hulk to change so they can attack Bruce Banner.

On more than one occasion, people have found ways to turn Hulk back to Bruce Banner to take him out. It doesn’t always work, but it slows him down. Plus, people don’t have to worry about Bruce smashing everything in sight.
