    Give people second chances, and believe in them as you read five Marvel heroes who used to villains earlier.

    A powerful telepath, she used to be the queen of the Hellfire Club and mentored wayward mutants, turning them against the X-Men.

    Credits:
  • Namor first appeared in Marvel in 1939 and he was a good old fashioned villain.

    He could control the seas and threatened to drown cities and picked fights with superheroes.

    However, his powers and motivations of preserving his home in the waters fascinated fans.

    Thus comic creators worked off his popularity and made him a Nazi-fighting hero during USA's entry in World War II.

    Elektra: The assassin, the lover and the hero
  • Elektra first appeared in Daredevil as Matt Murdock's enemy.

    A deadly sai-wielding assassin, Daredevil promptly fell in love with her. The ambiguous fascinating backstory of the character piqued fans' interest as well.

    As a result, her character was allowed to grow organically. She would appear as daredevil's sidekick while occasionally also fighting him.

    However, nowadays, Elektra is a full-fledged hero in the comic books.

  • Falcon has been a hero long enough for fans to have forgotten his villainous roots.

    However, Samuel Wilson saw his parents get murdered and the angry young man became a criminal known as 'Snap' Wilson.

    An encounter with Red Skull however causes his memory to get wiped, and he becomes Falcon, joining Captain America's side and later picking up the mantle of Captain America.

    With the ability to absorb anyone's powers with a single touch, Rogue is also one of the deadliest mutants.

    Taken under the wing and nurtured by Mystique, Rogue continued to battle the X-Men before changing sides and becoming a hero.
