Simple enough. Add, subtract or whatever to the roster.
Who? Why? Etc.
First tell me your Marvel team that would work. These "teams" would be the core of the discussion.
Secondly, your fan team across franchises. Just post these since I, and others, may be curious.
I'll give my two cents in due time. ~ ~ ~ Go!

Wolverine inspires a shit ton of fear. Even heroes are afraid of him. He would have made a great replacement for any one of the roster. The only drawback is that he is very difficult to control.

Honestly, bash all you'd like, but I think the new, darker, Rhino would have been a good choice. Abomination is coming back (or so promo art implied) so that might be a good way to put him back in the picture.

Everyone is afraid of Spider-Woman too.

Honestly, a suited villain perhaps Iron Monger or Titanium Man would have been cool.
An interesting fusion of man's science and evil's magic.

The problem with Iron Monger is that he has been dead since 1985. Titanium Man has died and came back a few times, but I never got to read Iron Man: Titanium to know his current status.
Do you have a link for that?

It was cover art I previously saw. Let me see if I can track it down/find a description.

I fail so hard with accurately judging time. The cover art that was fresh in my head was for a Chaos War tie-in (when he's grabbing Hulk and his eyes are flaming) No clue what his role was, but I'm assuming he's still dead

That was a pretty epic cover, but yes, he's back to being dead again.

As for my choices, Doom or even Iron Man can, and have instilled plenty of fear in their time.

Shame classic Cyber isn't around... Considering he made the runt afraid of him and all that

Sabretooth would have been a good choice, too.
Classic Venom was pretty good at intimidation, as well.
And Magneto would be great at it.

Punisher instills fear in pretty much everyone he meets.
Mister Sinister might have been good too.

Hmmm.... Let's see, the soon to be "Worthy" are Hulk, Juggernaut, Absorbing Man & Spouse Titania, Attuma, Grey Gargoyle & The Thing.
I would definitely keep Hulk & Juggy & most likely The Thing, coz they really do make people afraid. The other four i would change, though Absorbing Man is quite a good choice already but he's been keeping low for most of this time so his bad rep may have dwindled a bit.
Thinking this out i have come to some set of rules for myself in choosing them : . they must be non-godly or non-demonic or non-cosmic. . they must be from earth only. . they must be famous, infamous or well known & currently alive-"alive". . They must have struck fear into a large number of people & still do in someway. . doesn't matter if they are heroes, villains, anti-heroes/vigilantes or neutral so long as they have managed to scare the fecal matter out of a whole lot of people in their lives, whether on purpose or not.
So, my potential choices are : Dr. Doom - no explanation needed Magneto - ditto Ultron - i'm not sure if it will work on Ultron since he is a machine-lifeform but if it did work, Ultron has definitely made himself to be feared. Spider-man - due to J.J.J's spite, Spidey has been feared & hated for most of his life. Punisher - Criminals fear him & his rep travels. Carnage - Maximun Carnage, nuff said.
My top choices from the above to replace the 4 (Absorbing Man & Spouse Titania, Attuma, Grey Gargoyle) would be : Dr. Doom Magneto Ultron Carnage *Punisher (replaces Ultron if it doesn't work on a Machine-life form)

Anti-Venom as one of the worthy would be awesome. Oooooh, or Ghost Rider.

So, if the hammer's possess the wielder, wouldn't you just get a stunt rider with a bad-ass hammer? Well, what if the power took over the spirit of vengeance? Then we get Ghost Rider with a badass hammer AND he's a bad guy

I like those ideas.

Carnage and the Punisher would work very well indeed.
