So, can we talk about how the show just injected an incredibly overpowered character into the MCU in the last half of an episode of a series that not many people are watching?

Or how Fury's plan was to give the uber-mcguffin to someone else to give to the bad guy in the hopes that she could get super powered along with him and proceed to kill him on equal footing?

I wanted to like this show, but damn. Fury was a way better character before this started.

Comics introduce and forget about overpowered characters all the time, it's nothing new.

The Fury story was more Nick Fury's Secret War than Secret Invasion in the end. The whole Nick does something in secret that ends up threatening the whole world is straight from that book.

Man, Secret War with Nick Fury sending heroes (or in this case maybe skrulls) to infiltrate Latveria against diplomatic policy (maybe as a home on earth instead of suspicion of doom), and it being revealed that Nick had done this AND mind wiped his insurgents. All as a means to introduce DOOM. That would have been an INFINITELY better Bendis script to adapt to this show... Now I'm sad that I've had this thought.

The comics have the benefit of having waaaay more opportunities to address loose ends than the MCU

Isn't this show leading straight into the new Cap Marvel film?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It is. And other than Samuel L Jackson you won't see any crossover cast from this show. Not even the ultra powerful being with all of Carol Danvers powes they just left in London. Because why would you? It's the Marvel's movie not Fury's.

Not sure how they're going to hand wave that, since the whole movie is based on their powers being tied together. Why isn't Emilia Clarke being teleported around too?
