Echo Writer Explains Why Maya Lopez's MCU Powers Differ From the Comics

Echo co-head writer Amy Rardin offers a valid explanation of why the powers utilized by Maya Lopez in the Marvel Cinematic Universe differ from the comics.
Speaking with Screen Rant, Rardin insists Maya's MCU powers are more tied to her emotional growth and story, as opposed to her portrayal in Marvel Comics, following a recent trend with MCU characters. According to Rardin, it was important to add an emotional element for Maya to ensure Maya resonated better with audiences. "I think we talked a lot about deviating from the comics somewhat. I know probably the biggest place is her powers, and we talked a lot about her powers in the room and ultimately settled on a storyline where her powers were tied to her emotional story and her emotional growth. I think that's a big place where we deviated from the comics," she said.
