2021 was a big year for the MCU.
After taking a full year off in 2020, Marvel is back big time in 2021. From the debut of WandaVision in January 2021 to the November release of the holiday-themed Hawkeye, there has been a slew of shows on Disney+. And with theaters reopening, there have been three blockbuster hits on the big screen as well. That means this holiday season is overflowing with great gift ideas for Marvel fans, making it a super time for anyone who wants it to be somebody’s hero.
WandaVision was only the tip of the iceberg this season. Fans have been treated to The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, and What If...? on the small screen. Black Widow, Shang-Chi, and The Eternals have all been major offerings for the blockbuster crowd, introducing new characters and, along with them, new merch! And while Hawkeye and Spider-Man: Far From Home are still to come, there’s already merch for those films too. And even with all the new stories to celebrate (and more coming next year), fans to continue to honor the Infinity Saga, along with Avengers: Endgame, because who doesn’t love Tony Stark 3000? Let’s run down some of the best things out there that a Marvel fan could want.

Periodic Table Of Marvel T-Shirt
There are tons of Marvel shirts boasting the Marvel logo and individual characters' faces. But the Marvel Periodic Table of Elements has several advantages. First of all, it's super nerdy, the type of shirt Bruce Banner or Tony Stark would geek out over. But more importantly, it manages to have every Marvel Cinematic Universe character on one shirt in a super-efficient manner. Considering how many characters that entails, it's no small feat.
WandaVision Coffee Mug
WandaVision understands that in suburbia, no one starts the day without a large cup of coffee. This double-sided mug reminds everyone that neighbors can have both sides, good and evil, no matter what decade you’re living through.
Morris Shang Chi Plush Toy
Of all the pieces of Chinese mythos Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings touched on, none were more snuggly than Morris. The Dijiang is a mountain patron god in Chinese mythology and a creature of chaos. The 9-inch plush version is super squeezable and perfect for kids and collectors alike.
What If...? Captain Carter Print
What If...? was one of Marvel’s more interesting thought experiments, remixing characters and plotlines to create alternate universes. It was also Marvel’s first animated series, and the artwork was gorgeous. A print of the art would be a perfect gift for fans of the show, especially those who loved the series’ episode featuring Captain Carter.
Marvel Avengers Symbols Cardigan
The Infinity Saga may be over, but the Avengers are forever. Keep all six of the original gang close with this gorgeous and cozy Avengers cardigan, featuring each of their embroidered symbols on the sleeves.
Loki Helmet Chain Pendant Necklace
Most people don't think of Marvel as a franchise filled with jewelry, but this Loki helmet pendant is a perfect way to tell a fan that “Love is Mischief.”
Eternals Eyeshadow Palette
Marvels’ Eternals is perhaps the most beautiful Marvel movie ever made, so it makes sense to give the gift of beauty to any Eternals fan with this Urban Decay makeup palette. The 10-member ensemble inspired the colors, and fans can mix and match to however they feel when it’s time to save the world.
The Falcon & The Winter Soldier Captain America Jacket
There’s a new Captain America in town as Sam Wilson steps up in the Disney+ series Falcon & The Winter Soldier. Fans can celebrate the first passing of an Avenger title with a jacket based on the new costume.
Black Widow Funko Pop! Deluxe
Marvel Funko Pops are just about everywhere for every movie and TV series made so far. But this Black Widow deluxe pop from the Avengers Assemble collection is perfect for celebrating her final turn in the franchise.
Hawkeye Christmas Tee
It’s time to get ready for the holidays with Hawkeye. The upcoming Christmas series is aimed straight at everyone’s hearts, and this shirt will remind everyone all they need is to put a bow on it.
EDITH Glasses
Sadly, most fans cannot afford to hire a JARVIS or are clever enough to make a JARVIS of their own. But EDITH is far more practical, and this gift can make a Marvel fan look sharp.
Wakanda Water Bottle
Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever won’t be out until late 2022, so everyone’s going to need to stay healthy and hydrated until it gets here. This Wakanda water bottle will be up to the task.
Avengers Highball Glass Set
It would be just like Tony Stark to have a personalized set of highball glasses ready and waiting for the Avengers after a hard day of planet-saving. Now fans, too, can drink to teamwork and defeating the bad guys.
Marvel Cloth Face Masks
No gift list in the 2020s is complete without a set of masks, and no superhero is complete without one. These from shopDisney are easily recognizable to MCU fans while also throwing it back to the original comics.
Subscription to Disney+
What Marvel fans want most is more Marvel. For that, the smartest gift you can get is a year's subscription to Disney+. Fans can not only watch most of the Infinity Saga, but also tune in for the MCU's newest offerings coming in 2022, including Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk, Moon Knight, and others.
