I feel like the Marvel Legends line hasn't totally delved into the alternate universe stories that they have under Marvel's comic belt; however, we recently got the reveal of a two pack based on the Old Man Logan comic book featuring a new Old Man Logan including baby Hulk, and Old Man Hawkeye. Both look phenomenal, and already I'm hoping that the Old Man universe is further expanded in the toyline as it is a very popular Marvel universe. These comics have given us alternate versions of a lot of great characters, and following Logan and Hawkeye here are the 5 I hope come next.

5. Multiple Man
I don't remember if this character was in the original Old Man Logan or not, but I know for sure he was featured in the Quill and Hawkeye storyline in the fun role of a gang out in the wastelands. I love this character and his power set, and any additional figures of him in the line can always work as army builders to be bought in droves. This design of the character also uses the black shirt with the green dots that I like, and the alternate heads can easily just have different colored bandannas.

4. Bullseye
One of the primary villains in the Old Man Hawkeye storyline was Bullseye who had a prosthetic eye upgrade and went rogue from Red Skull in order to track down Hawkeye, putting himself on Skull's bad side and ultimately killing off Skull's enforcer's as well that were sent after him. Bullseye was a really cool villain that posed a huge threat throughout the story and proved his danger after offing big characters like Winter Soldier. With Hawkeye coming out, this would be a perfect figure to go along with him.

3. Red Skull
Speaking of the Skull. He was the original big bad of the Old Man universe and the architect behind the heroes' fall. Red Skull was the one behind the huge villain team up that destroyed the world, and his appearance at the end of the story is one that would definitely make for an incredible and unique figure in the line. Red Skull wore the Captain America costume in the end of the story for his fight against Logan, which is unlike anything we've gotten in the line so far.

2. Hulk
If Marvel Legends are looking for a build a figure to do in their line, I have no better answer than the Hulk from Old Man Logan. Bruce Banner was a monstrous character in the story that spawned a whole gang of inbred Hulk hicks. They were a disgusting and infuriating lot of characters, and provided for the final battles in the Logan story after they killed his family. Hulk in particular is the most needed from the group for being an absolutely crazy design that would translate to a disturbing figure, and also giving us one of the most memorable moments in the comics in which he eats Wolverine who subsequently cuts himself out of his stomach.

1. Old Man Quill
Logan and Hawkeye were done quickly by the line, but the third member of the Old Man series that I've read so far is Peter Quill whose story didn't directly cross into the stories of Logan and Hawkeye, but it was still an incredible extra look at the universe with a very layered and meaningful story. It explored what happened to Sue and Reed Richards, as well as dealt with Galactus coming to the planet. Huge events, but the biggest point in the story had to be Peter realizing that the Guardians he had been traveling with were actually just figments of his own mind and they had been dead the whole time.
