Characters Marvel wouldn’t approve 

In a recent interview with The Breakroom, showrunner Jeff Trammell revealed that Marvel restricted certain characters from appearing in the series: "We thought Big Wheel would be a fun addition, but it just wasn’t in the cards for us. I couldn’t use the Fantastic Four. That was a bummer for sure. I had ideas for them, but I had to pivot. Sometimes, when you can’t use a character, it pushes you to explore new options. You can’t just play it safe, you have to get creative and bring in fresh ideas."
