Secret Invasion has proven that there is a power vacuum in the Marvel Cinematic Universe: The Avengers are no more. Following the events of Avengers Endgame, the MCU's Mightiest heroes deiced that getting a new team together wasn't worth the trouble. So in this video we talk about why that's a mistake (and also makes for good storytelling).
We breakdown the current whereabouts of Captain America, Bucky, Spider-Man, Dr Strange, Thor, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, Captain Marvel, Scarlet Witch, Vision, Hulk, She-Hulk, Moon Knight, and many more.

So the most important line we’ve he ard in the show secret invasion has been totally overlooked [if Avengers get back together]. This line confirms that the Avengers split up following Endgame. So this means that following the events of the infinity war, when every superhero stood arm in arm to save the universe, that a few heroes din;t bother to say, “hey, we should keep doing this.”
Now clearly the MCU has planned this for a reason-so I’m going to talk about how and why the Avengers will reassemble in phase 5-but I’m also going to tell you why I think this is a mistake. And that the reason phase 4 was the weakest phase is because we needed an Avengers movie.
So in the most recent episode of Secret Invasion, spoiler alert for episode 4-alien terrorists attack the president of the united states. This would ordinarily be a job for the Avenegrs-you know, the powerful people who can fight the battle that we never could.
In the old days, cap would have showed up with a quinject, or Tony would have dispatched the iron legion form space. But now, the Tony droines have all been seized and appropriated by Damage Control. The superheroes no longer have a contingency in place for disastrous events like this.
And I think that the decision to not reform the avengers was ultimately selfish-and as I’ll prove to you, these superheroes had their reasons-but as Fury would say they’re stupid ass reasons. The heroes have acted slefishly, and hung Fury out to dry.
Bow the show has given us an excuse for why Fury didn;t call superheroes for help [clip]. I actually think that there is another reason for this-a deeper, more personal reason that I’ll talk about later on.
But, first of all, I have to point out that all of this is adapted from the comics
-so I’m going to explain that adaptation, because it will inform what is going to happen next with the MCU. So back in the 1980s, the scarlet witch and vision had twin sons-conceived with magic, and complicated stuff. Then, in an issue of the west coast Avengers, it was revealed that wanda actually just imagined her sons into existence.
Visions’ memory was wiped, and the kids were absorbed back into mephisto-long story. The point is, that afterwards Agatha Harkness places a spell on Wanda to make her forget her children. This is because wanda has the power to rewrite reality, and her grief makes her unstable-and so for years, the Avengers lied to wanda, never mentioning that she had kids.
Then the wasp kind of let it slip, and the scarlet witch began to subtly sabotage the Avengers. Killing jack of hearts, summoning ultron bots to fight the team, destroying Avengers mansion. Then dr strange reveals that wanda doesn;t have mutant powers-she is a very powerful sorceress who uses chaos magic.
Doug: All this sounds familiar.
Yeah, it was all loosely adapted into WandaVision. Wanda mourns vision, creates a spell to make her forget, has twin sons, loses twin sons, and vision is resurrected with no memory. In both the comics and the movies,the Avengers failed wanda, and it caused huge problems. Eventually, Wanda's grief and proximity to the Darkhold drove her mad in a multiverse of madness.
But back to the comics-following this event, the Avengers decided that they should disassemble the team, for personal reasons. They failed their friend, they caused chaos and destruction, so the world was better off without the Avengers. After this, wanda rewrites reality to create a perfect world where mutants rule the planet, and she has a large family-which is like wanda creating the sitcom reality in wandavision.
Following Avengers disassembled, there was a new Avengers team formed, with luke cage, wolverine, spider-man-and also the young Avengers, who I’ll talk about a little later in the video.
