The MCU reached its peak in 2019 when Avengers: Endgame premiered and millions of people tuned in to watch the big fight between Thanos and the superheroes end in a final battle.

As Marvel True Believers will tell you, writer Al Ewing’s style is a fascinating synthesis of six different comics traditions. He has all of the bombast of Jack Kirby at his Kirbyest, the taste for the occult of Grant Morrison, the unrestrained imagination of Jim Starlin, the visual language of Alan Davis mixed with Christopher Priest, and the methodical formalism of Jonathan Hickman.
Ewing started his career on 2000 Ad books before quickly finding himself in the Marvel stable.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe lost its biggest hero when Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man fell in Avengers: Endgame, but not after saving the day/Earth 616. Ever since then, the MCU has struggled to create the kind of projects that made it such a global success in the first place.
While most fans have asked for Kevin Feige and company to focus on originality and come up with new narratives that delve into the wealth of characters the Comics have on offer, some have also pressed for a Robert Downey Jr. return. Whether that is a potential option especially considering the actor’s own wishes, Feige had previously claimed they would ‘never want to mafically undo’ Stark’s heroic death.

Amazon MGM Studios is adapting Don Winslow’s novella Crime 101. Mark Ruffalo is reportedly in talks to play the lead role. He is set to co-star with Chris Hemsworth and negotiate to star and produce alongside Ben Grayson, his producing partner.
The film will be directed by Bart Layton, who collaborated with Peter Straughan to develop the screenplay. Layton is famously known for his work as a director and writer of the 2018 heist movie American Animals, which starred Evan Peters, Barry Keoghan, and Ann Dowd.

There are few stories that have come out of Marvel that are as influential as Old Man Logan. There is no doubt, that the company has some of superhero fiction’s greatest stories, but few have the caliber and the complexity of a piece like Old Man Logan, which follows an elderly Wolverine, who has given up the use of his claws after he was tricked into killing the X-Men and other mutants in Xavier’s Institute.

The development of ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ has faced challenges, experiencing multiple delays due to poor test screenings and the SAG-AFTRA strike, leading to significant story revisions.
Details on the plot remain scarce, except for a brief clip shown at CinemaCon. Notably, the film is expected to feature Harrison Ford as Thunderbolt Ross, Tim Blake Nelson as The Leader, select members of the Serpent Society, and Red Hulk.
Talking about ‘The Leader,’ some time back, we shared a marketing concept of the character’s appearance, which left fans rather unimpressed. However, in a recent episode of Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum, Tim Blake Nelson dropped a surprising revelation. He mentioned that The Leader will primarily rely on practical effects, aiming to minimize the use of CGI as much as possible.
The Leader will be done “as practically as possible, with an absence of digital… stuff.

Agatha remains one of Marvel Studios' most intriguing upcoming projects, particularly with it serving as a follow-up to 2021's critically acclaimed WandaVision.
Nexus Point News has today shared new intel on the show's characters, starting with Joe Locke's Billy. They believe the plan is to reveal his true identity as the teenage son of Wanda Maximoff later in the series, making it a huge moment for non-comic book readers.
Aubrey Plaza is Rio Vidal, one of Agatha's antagonists, while Patti LuPone is Lilia Calderu, Sasheer Zamata is Jennifer Kale, and Ali Ahn is Alice Wu.
Miles Guiterrez-Riley, meanwhile, is said to be playing Eddie, Billy's boyfriend. Likely to disappoint fans is the fact it doesn't sound like he has any connection to Teddy Altman, a.k.a. Hulking. Perhaps we'll meet him down the line; then again, it could be that Bruce Banner's son first introduced in She-Hulk...

It was a disappointment not only for the heroes but also for the fans, who were shocked by the film’s ending. The film’s director Joe and Anthony Russo, aka the Russo brothers, once blamed the Avengers’ failures on Tony Stark and Captain America, played by Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans, respectively.
For the unversed, a rift was created between Tony Stark and Steve Rogers in Captain America: Civil War over the Sokovia Accords.

Edward Norton’s The Incredible Hulk was not as bad of a movie, nor was Norton a bad Hulk. In fact, many Marvel fans would love to have him as the Green Goliath instead of MCU’s Mark Ruffalo. Since the past decade, fans have been wanting to see more of the meaner and scarier Hulk instead of Ruffalo’s toned-down, friendlier version that we got in recent years.

So while fans might never get Edward Norton’s version of Hulk back, a notorious villain from the movie will be making his way to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Known as Mr Blue, Samuel Sterns will be the antagonist in Harrison Ford’s MCU debut film, Captain America: Brave New World.

Captain America: Civil War beautifully set the stage in a way for the Avengers: Infinity War. When Tony Stark reveals to Bruce Banner that the Avengers have broken up, Bruce innocently questions him, “Like the Beetles?” It generated a lot of laughs in the theatres, but that might not have been possible if Marvel’s Creative Committee stopped the Russo brothers from pitting Tony and Steve Rogers against each other in the 2016 movie.
Civil War was directed by the director sibling duo Joe Russo and Anthony Russo and featured most of the Avengers. However, Thor and Hulk were not part of the film.

Ang Lee's Hulk was released when the superhero movie genre was very much in its infancy. It joined a small club of early 2000s titles that includes Blade, X-Men, Spider-Man, and Daredevil, but the filmmaker's unique approach to adapting the Jade Giant for the screen split opinions.
Quite literally attempting to bring a comic book to life in a movie, the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon director didn't lack ambition with his approach, but the technology wasn't really there to pull off either his vision for the character or those comic book panel-inspired screen splits.
A moderate hit at the box office with a $245 million haul, the movie remains a disappointment in the eyes of many, including Lee himself. Five years later, Marvel Studios released The Incredible Hulk, and retained elements of this Green Goliath's origin story (albeit with Edward Norton replacing Eric Bana).

Every couple of months in comic book-centric social media circles, someone reposts a comics page in which Deadpool shooting Spider-Man in the head or decapitating an exhausted Bruce Banner. These panels usually spark arguments about whether or not these kills are in character (they aren’t) or if the entire thing is a joke (it is).
Eventually, someone points out that the pages come from Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe, a 2012-2013 miniseries by Cullen Bunn and Dalibor Talajic. The story involves Deadpool’s fourth-wall-breaking powers driving him so mad that he decides to kill all the other Marvel characters because they’re fictional and their lives don’t matter. Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe may have inspired controversy, but it also inspired several sequels, including Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe Again.
From all that we’ve seen so far, Deadpool & Wolverine seems to have little in common with Bunn and Talajic’s take.

Mark Ruffalo has been playing the role of Bruce Banner a.k.a Hulk in the MCU since The Avengers. The actor replaced Edward Norton after his appearance in The Incredible Hulk. Since then, Ruffalo has appeared in all the Avengers films, as well as Thor: Ragnarok and the Disney Plus series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.
While the actor has been an irreplaceable part of the Og Avengers, he is one of the few to not receive a solo outing yet. The MCU has also not explored much more dangerous and scarier versions of the Hulk, who has gone berzerk multiple times in the comics. Fans especially want Kevin Feige to introduce Maestro, who was already seen in the game Marvel’s Avengers.

These days, many fans know Mark Ruffalo for two major reasons. First is his portrayal of the mighty green Avenger, The Hulk, and second is hilariously giving away major plot points from whatever movie he stars in. However, his fanbase extends beyond the realm of gamma radiation and super strength.

The MCU itself is a global phenomenon, having raked in a staggering $30 billion at the global box office. However, Ruffalo, one of its most important cast members, does not believe that the MCU is his biggest claim to fame.

Akira Toriyama has created Super Saiyan versions in every color of the rainbow and more. So, of course, there are transformations serving all kinds of purposes, be it speed, strength, or fusion in Dragon Ball.
With so many Super Saiyan versions available, it is only natural that some of them would follow trends set by other superheroes. This time, the comparison is between Super Saiyan Rage and Marvel’s Hulk.
Similarities Between Super Saiyan Rage in Dragon Ball and Hulk Hulk | Marvel Wiki
Super Saiyan Rage, like its name, was achieved when Future Trunks felt unbelievable anger during the Future Trunks Saga in Dragon Ball. Marvel’s Hulk is also famous for being triggered by rage. While Bruce Banner learned to control the transformation over the years, the main ingredient to Hulk is still anger. Thus, the famous quote:
“I’m always angry.”

The upcoming Marvel film Captain America: Brave New World has had a rather rocky development, with rumors of poor test screenings, reshoots, and even delays leading to some wondering when the film will actually be released.
So little is known about the film, and the only hint at any story is its multiple subtitles, with the first being “New World Order” but being changed to “Brave New World” due to political concerns. This will also be the first Captain America film without Chris Evans as Falcon (Played by: Anthony Mackie) has taken up the mantel (as seen in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier).
But we may now know of a character that will be appearing in the film, one that will serve as the potential main villain of the story. That being Red Hulk. Red Hulk is the alter ego of Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross after he, too, was mutated like Bruce Banner,...

Tatiana Maslany, Star of MCU’s She-Hulk, Addresses Marvel Fan Sexism: “It Felt Like Part of the Fun”
If you’re part of the MCU fandom, no matter which “side” you’re on, chances are you noticed that most shows and live-action movies in one way or another focus on female superheroes. It’s part of the new progressive and inclusive strategy that aims to open up the exciting world of superheroes to more than just one demographic.
The success of that strategy remains uncertain for now, as plenty of backlash is generated overall. The most recent example of that is ‘The Marvels,’ the lowest-grossing MCU movie so far.
But before ‘The Marvels,’ there was the ‘She-Hulk’ live-action TV show that introduced Bruce Banner’s cousin to the MCU. Strangely, the show was largely praised by the critics but totally panned by fans, which led even its main star Tatiana Maslany to comment on how the chances of the show getting a sequel were slim.

Captain America: Civil War is considered to be one of the best films the Marvel Cinematic Universe has had to offer. Keeping the storyline aside, such intense love for the film came because fans got to see their favorite Marvel superheroes together on the screen. The airport fight scene is still one of the fandom’s favorites! However, Chris Hemsworth was clearly missing from the party.

When Chris Hemsworth realized Captain America: Civil War was a thing and that many of his “friends from work” were going to be in it, he was quite worried about his future in the MCU. He came to the conclusion that Thor was being kicked out of the superhero universe and decided to confront the higher-ups about the fiasco.

Marvel is known for making some of the most unique universes and variants of iconic characters including the Hulk, Iron Man, Spider-Man, and many more. Each universe has its own version of the superheroes. Sometimes they are evil, sometimes they are more heroic than fans best know them as. Sometimes they get the peaceful and happy ending they truly deserve. However, sometimes, they don’t wear pants.
The Hulk is one of Marvel’s pivotal superheroes
There is an entire comic book issue dedicated to the Hulk’s refusal to wear any pants. Something that, at first glance, would seem to be an obvious necessity in the waking world. For the superhero though, that was far from a priority. So much so that he was ready to start a fight with whoever chose to go against him.

The Incredible Hulk remains the black sheep of the Marvel Cinematic Universe despite being one of the earliest installments in the multi-billion dollar franchise. The film marks Edward Norton’s only appearance as Bruce Banner / Hulk from the Marvel Studios. However, the film also introduced the late William Hurt’s Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross who became a major supporting player in the MCU.

During an interview, the film’s director Louis Leterrier spoke about the tumultuous production process, which was only hampered by his constant arguments with Hurt. Leterrier revealed that he once had to resort to slight violence to assert his dominance over Hurt. Here is what Leterrier revealed about not getting along with Hurt on The Incredible Hulk.

Louis Leterrier's "The Incredible Hulk" was released in August of 2008, a year before Disney made their notorious $4 billion purchase of Marvel Entertainment. Once the Disney purchase was finalized, the company announced its plan to build out the then-new Marvel Cinematic Universe, which was novel at the time. Disney also retconned Paramount's "Iron Man," and Leterrier's movie (made for Universal) into the MCU, using a foundation that had already been built. The announcement of a whole string of interconnected superhero movies set the pop world on fire, and the ensuing decade would be crushed -- both positively and negatively -- by Marvel.
"The Incredible Hulk" was sort of the red-headed stepchild of those early films. It starred Edward Norton as Bruce Banner, and Norton, as with any of his films, attempted to assert creative control over the project. The tone of "Incredible" is steelier and more machine-like than the...

Marvel’s Avengers can be described as many things, but a successful game is not one of them, and the live service structure that Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics went with is one of the culprits. Failing to achieve the same success as the live-action films from the MCU, the game had the potential to improve where the films lacked, but it turned out to be a major disappointment.
Marvel’s Avengers Could Have Utilized Ultron Better Than the MCU
James Spader made his first and last appearance as Ultron in Avengers: Age of Ultron, and a version of the character was teased in Marvel’s Avengers.
The game was originally conceived with the idea of constant updates and content support from developers and an overarching story meant to span multiple seasons. Ultron was meant to appear as a villain, and actor Jim Meskimen had already recorded dialogue before the untimely cancellation.

Marvel is witnessing how big of a hole Robert Downey Jr. left in the MCU when his character heroically died in Avengers: Endgame. Most of the projects post-Endgame show a declining trend in audience interest in the films.
While this is a universal trend across Cbm films now, returning superheroes notably get a more positive reception. Fans have been suggesting that Marvel bring back Downey Jr. as Iron Man for the same reason.

But at the time, there were no concrete pieces of evidence to support these claims, and as new reports started to roll in, it seemed less likely that the character or the actress was going anywhere.

Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk had one of the most stagnant character arcs in the MCU, despite the hero being a crucial part of the Avengers team. While behind-the-scenes issues played a major part in the MCU’s failure to explore this character, even solving those issues may no longer help Hulk’s story. The universe has already introduced another superhero dealing with multiple personality disorder — Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight — which undermines the Hulk’s defining characteristic from the comics.

Marvel’s The Hulk happens to be one of the most crucial and significant characters within the franchise and over the years, the character has played a major role in the narration of the story. The Strongest Avenger is always on the list for being the most powerful Avenger, as he has fought many compelling foes including his own Avenger team at one time or another.

People are speculating a lot about who will be in the new Avengers, especially with the bunch of new superheroes introduced in the last phase and more expected in upcoming projects.
