Reading up on certain things hopefully they do House of M and Secret Invasion story lines. With how things are going idk how they dont introduce X-MEN and Fantastic 4 soon.(Reed Richards has so many important roles and Xavier/Magneto/Wolverine is so important in so many stories)

Marvel can keep the mainstream momentum after Thanos if they play this shyt right. It's still alot of interesting stories to be told.......imo:yeshrug:
Dr. Doom and Silver Surfer are gonna be very fun additions as well.

Watched this ep 3 days ago, been busy so I didn't have time to comment.

Not much to say, great ep. First ep I didn't mind Walker because it kinda resets the character.

Only two extremely minor complaints I have is:

1. The boat stuff, as far as Sam just calling everyone to help. Sarah could've done that at any point. But whatever, that whole subplot wasn't really about the boat.

2. Zemo going to The Raft. Wakanda should just keep his ass. Granted I haven't read comics since the early 90's so maybe there's something here I'm missing but I'm not understanding why they'd hand him over.

Lastly, and I said this before....Marvel just needs to stick to series. I couldn't care less if they make another movie. This format is 100x better for their content. X-Men needs to be a series.

I just binged the show. Great series. My two gripes are

1) The isolation of the characters doesn't make sense, as is the case in all MCU-related material. Why the hell is Sam struggling to keep his family's boat afloat? You mean to tell me one of the fricken Avengers couldn't get a bank loan? The government couldn't just GIVE him the money for helping save the friggin world? He couldn't hit up Pepper? Bucky with the Wakandan connect? A friggin GoFundMe?! :mindblown:

2) I don't like the fact that they haven't explained what happened to Sarah's kids' father; did I miss this? They just thrust another single black mother doing everything on her own with no backstory. I had to google that she's a widow.

Other than those two unfortunate peeves, everything else is stellar. It was funny how Sam had to correct the kid about his name not being The Black Falcon, only to have his race highlighted moments later and throughout the series.

Every black women in the MCU who that’s/was married to a black male becomes another single black mother

The more I think about it, I kinda don't want to see Sam take up the mantle. I'd rather them incorporate the next step in the 616 which is this upcoming United States of Captain America (or Capt A Corps or whatever they're gonna call it), with different people around the MCU becoming inspired to show what Cap represents for them. Of course I want to see Eli receive the shield and become Patriot. Eli is a different take because he knows his grandfather's story and views, and of being a young black man in US...so his take on things will be great. I also can't wait to see where they take US Agent. He really is a dope character

It's time for Marvel Studios to really reach in the bag for the underrated characters.

A Villa Straylight.
Somebody school me on Elaine's character. I have no idea who that is.

In the comics she's Madame Hydra as well as an associate of Fury and my associate i mean he was piping her out. Allegedly she helped restart the Thunderbolts and was in the Secret Warriors comic.
