Marvel just delayed Doomsday and Secret Wars by 7 months—but is that the full story? Eric breaks down why this delay feels like the beginning of something bigger, including a compelling theory from Colton Ogburn (ScreenCrush) that suggests we could be getting a third Avengers film—possibly Secret Avengers—before the saga’s finale. Is Marvel slow-rolling the real Multiverse shake-up? Is a stronger middle chapter being built before Secret Wars? Let’s talk about what’s really going on with the Avengers timeline—and what this could mean for the MCU’s future.

Things slow down in Episode 2 — but that doesn’t mean we’re not building something big. Eric dives into Kamala’s power practice, school drama, and that suspiciously smooth new guy, Kamran. There’s no major villain yet… but trouble’s clearly brewing. Plus: the Department of Damage Control is back, Bruno’s catching feelings, and Eric reflects on ums, awkwardness, and embracing your own rhythm. 💛

I was planning to talk about Infinity War today… But after Thunderbolts, I can’t stop thinking about Marvel’s boldest twist in years— The New Avengers are here. And I have a lot to say. This isn’t a deep recap. It’s a raw, passionate reflection on what this new team really means. They’re not perfect. They’re not polished. But they might just be the most honest group of heroes the MCU has ever assembled. Let’s talk about redemption, mental health, and why this misfit lineup hit me harder than expected. If you’ve been obsessing too… this one’s for you.
