Well the DC Trinity exists on two levels.  Both the importance to the characters, and because in the real world, they are the 3 best selling characters.  Almost every DC hero looks up to or is affected by one member of the DC Trinity, or falls lightly upon one of their shadows.   
 
So in making a Marvel Trinity, you have to consider both the shadows cast to other characters and their sales. 
 
So I might recommend Spider-Man, obviously, for being Marvel's flagship character.  (Marvel admits this, more or less, in the Visual Guide.)  The X-Men are also a huge influence and sales driver, so I'd recommend Professor X too.  HOWEVER, Wonder Woman adds a female perspective to the trinity, so instead of Professor X, maybe Jean Grey or Emma Frost could represent both mutants and women in the Marvel Trinity.  And lastly, Captain America because EVERYONE looks up to him, even Spider-Man.  Even some villains look up to Cap. 
 
Spider-Man 
Emma Frost 
Captain America 
 
But...  They'd never get along very well.  And the DC Trinity in and of itself is almost a team.  Hell, even their sidekicks (Robin, Superboy, and Wonder Girl) get along and were a major force in the Teen Titans.  Marvel has always been more "realistically disorganized" then DC. 
 
Know what?  Marvel may not even have a "Trinity".  Just throw in the Illuminati team to serve the same function.  Although, Spider-Man's not in the Illuminati and neither were any women.

@Son_of_Magnus:  
 
I agree with Son_of_Magnus.  While Sentry is scared of his own shadow, Parallax only needs your body (and powers).  Neither Kyle nor Hal were exactly in charge while possessed.  So if Sentry were possessed by Parallax, I think Sinestro would have a powerful member of the corps.

Sentry can't die, but how about this for a victory scenario for Sinestro?   
 
Parallax possesses Sentry. 
 
The Sentry is already very vulnerable to fear.  Could you imagine a Parallax possessed Sentry?

In the 90's Spider-Man Cartoon, Spider-Man noticed the same thing.  

He thought it was because Carnage and Kasady bonded much more then Venom and Eddie did; that Carnage and Casady literally thought of themselves as one being together, while Venom and Eddie still thought of themselves as a partnership.

HA!  That's great.  


Mind if I borrow it?  I'd be glad to give credit and a link to you.

Where did the pics for this section come from? Alot of them look awfully similar to the pics on both my Red X based MySpace accounts.

Don't worry, if they did come from me I'm not upset.  I'd just like to know, and maybe get some credit for them.

Yo ho, I'd be that Red X that Nyxy mentioned. Thanks for the shout out, Nyx.

Red X was introduced as a mystery figure. Jason Todd was only introduced as a theory, along with... Robin's clone, long lost brother, inter-dimensional imp, Robin after time traveling, or a bionic monkey infused with Robin's DNA. So if Jason Todd is a valid theory, so is the bionic monkey. And, yeah yeah, Jason Todd was stealing the Batmobile's tires, but Red X was supposed to be a mystery. That way he wouldn't be a name or identity, he'd just be a living embodiment of Robin's mistake.
