List of vehicles in Marvel Comics

List of vehicles in Marvel Comics

This is a list of fictional vehicles featured in Marvel Universe comic books published by Marvel Comics.

Black Knight's Atomic Steed

The Black Knight sometimes employs one of the "Atomic Steeds" built by the Knights of Wundagore, engineered by the High Evolutionary.

Blackbird

The Blackbird jet is the primary mode of transportation for the X-Men. See Blackbird.

Fantastic Four's Pogo Plane

The Pogo-Plane, so-called because of its tail-down landing/take-off attitude, was the first significant air-breathing engine design of Reed Richards. Employing new turbine blade configurations and a new titanium-alloy process, Richards increased overall engine performance to a very high thrust-to-weight ratio.

Fantasti-Car

see Fantasticar

The Fantasti-Car, a flying car, is an invention of Reed Richards and is used by his family and teammates, the Fantastic Four. The Fantasti-Car also appears in the 2007 film "", and the various FF animated series.

Reed continually reinvents the car, which originally resembled a "flying bathtub". In its typical design it has a modular structure, enabling it to separate into four vehicles.

In Ultimate Universe continuity, the Fantasti-Car was a fuel-less vehicle invented by Reed in case he wished to escape from the Baxter Building. It was replaced by a modular vehicle called the Seven Ten Split (although Ben Grimm, who found the name "Fantasti-Car" amusing, suggested calling it the "Wonder Bus").

Freedom's Lady

The Guardians of the Galaxy operate from the Starship "Freedom's Lady", a medium-weight, convert|700|ft|m|sing=on "Annihilator"-Class battleship of 30th Century Earth design. Trans-light power is furnished by inter-reacting tachyon and anti-tachyon beams. Fully equipped for deep-space and inter-galactic excursion, it carried a full complement of offensive weapons as well as an impenetrable energy barrier, divided into 14 overlapping segments.

Kang's Time-Ship

Kang the Conqueror's time-ship is a convert|20|ft|m|sing=on long, non-aerodynamic, space-worthy vehicle, and is mostly a housing for the large energy-generating devices that power the time machine. The time machine itself is a device whose major timestream-bridging components are the size of a two-drawer file cabinet. It utilizes energy to generate a chronal-displacement internal field, enabling a being or object to break through the "reality walls" of the timestream into the trans-temporal realm of Limbo, from which all time eras and alternate worlds are accessible. Kang's machine has the capacity to send him through time unencumbered by time-travel equipment save for a temporal beacon. It can also remotely snatch people or objects from other times and places. The entire time machine can also move itself, and Kang's space-worthy time-ship, through time with its pre-programmed control units aboard. The advantages of taking the apparatus with him are that he has immediate access to the machine, and he can safeguard against its unauthorized use. It has viewscreens permitting Kang to peer into other times and places by the dispatching of flying, micro-video cameras able to broadcast through time. He also has a wrist-sized viewscreen monitor that can be tuned to the master video screen.

Quinjet

Used primarily by the Avengers, the quinjet is first designed by the Wakanda Design Group, headed by Black Panther, T'Challa. Each one is equipped with VTOL capability and five turbojet engines. A quinjet can reach Mach 2.1. Two highly specialized ultra-large Quinjets were used to transport various superheros through space in the Infinity Crusade mini-series.

Quinjets are infamous for being destroyed soon after they appear.Also, in the New Avengers/Transformers crossover, the Decepticon Ramjet escapes, disguised as Captain America's Quinjet.

Hawkeye's Sky-Cycle

Hawkeye sometimes travels about in a custom-built sky-cycle (also called a skymobile), designed and built at Cross Technological Enterprises. It is voice-operated and requires no hands to steer. The sky-cycle first appeared in "Hawkeye #1". It was also featured in the "Iron Man" animated series.

Hellcycle

Ghost Rider's flaming motorcycle. The entire cycle is made of hellfire. Appeared in the 2007 film Ghost Rider (film).

Moon Knight's Helicopter

Moon Knight's copter is a VTOL vehicle capable of precision, computer-assisted maneuvering for air-land-and-sea rescues, tracking automobiles through traffic, and many other purposes. Moon Knight is in constant contact with the copter, piloted by Frenchie (but also with a sophisticated, computer-aided auto-pilot), at all times via a miniature transceiver with a microphone in his cowl. The on-board computer performs navigation functions, remote sensor image-enhancement, and radar interpretation. Moon Knight has had at least two different designs of copter. One resembled a conventional helicopter with a crescent moon tail. The second actually resembled an airship more than a helicopter but was also crescent shaped.

.H.I.E.L.D. Flying Car

The standard issue S.H.I.E.L.D. vehicle is the flying car, originally designed by Anthony Stark at Stark Industries.

.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier

See Helicarrier

hockwave Rider

The superhero team Nextwave steals the Shockwave Rider, its base of operations, from H.A.T.E., a compromised anti-terrorist organization.

The Shockwave Rider is powered by a Zero-Point Squirt Drive, giving it a nearly unlimited fuel supply. The Rider contains 5 tesseract zones, allowing it to be spacious on the inside while keeping it compact on the outside. To deploy in the field, the team dives through a pool of an orange membrane to exit via the underside of the ship. It was destroyed in Nextwave's final battle with the Beyond Corporation©.

The name was presumably taken from the title of the science-fiction novel, The Shockwave Rider, by John Brunner, as writer Warren Ellis has often borrowed from SF titles in the past (as when he borrowed the title of Kingsley Amis' history of science-fiction, New Maps of Hell, for a JLA story arc).

pider-Mobile

The Spider-Mobile was the short term and generally ill-thought of vehicle of Spider-Man. See Spider-Mobile.
