How is it Lazy? You have the first appeareance of a "superpowered" person (whatever you want to call it) ..and you dont at least base him..in the roughest sense of of something even slightly significant from marvel history?
The MCU isnt always going to correlate to whats been done in comics...i get that..but it was an opportunity to please comic fans with a sign that these guys are well researched fans of marvel comics.
it was lazy dude..
In what way is that lazy? Like, this is what lazy means:

What you're describing isn't lazy. They didn't put in any less effort than they would have if they made him a pre-existing Marvel character.
And, again, I really feel like making him a pre-existing Marvel character would have missed the point of what they were trying to do. The entire point of his story and the pilot was that this is the toll that these huge events and people who shape our world have on normal folks. Having him be an adaptation of a pre-existing superhero, no matter how minor, would kind of work against the whole notion of this being an example of how people who aren't super heroes are effected by living in a superhero world.
