He was created as a Superman copy in the first place - per WIkipedia:  Hyperion is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, of which there are several notable versions. The original Hyperion made his debut in The Avengers #69 (Oct. 1969), created by writer Roy Thomas and artist Sal Buscema.[1] The alternate versions are each from a different dimension of the Marvel Multiverse, and consist of both heroes and villains. Thomas says that the character was intended as a pastiche of DC's iconic hero Superman.

I still haven't seen Eternals, but I want Ikaris as the MCU's Superman. I'm definitely not a biased fan of Richard Madden..... no sir.....

Why does Marvel need a Superman? ???

There are always going to be characters very similar to an archetype such as Superman, anyway.

The MCU doesn't know how to handle power and personality; That's why all of their characters are nerfed into the ground. They would have no idea what to do with Hyperion, because he isn't charming or complex like Kal-El.

The Squadron Sinister’s version of Hyperion is closer to Black Adam as a character. A thug rather than charming.

I agree if the mcu brings in Hyperion they should use him as a villain slash anti hero!
