@tammerodd@Calibur329015@Ga_ba_go0ber Not only are the Hand ninjas are kind of like zombies they’ve all been resurrected like 500 times, but the film literally shows you that he’s not affected by it at all lmao
We’re soon to forget Jaycee Horn, Cade Mays, Christian Rozeboom and Chandler Zavala (all starters at the time) were ruled out against the Rams Week 13 last year.
How did that one play out? 🧐
It’s going to be tough, no doubt, but don’t count us out just yet.
The Russo Brothers say that the visual of Doctor Doom being created at the end of ‘AVENGERS ENDGAME: ENCORE’ was “planned all along.”
“There is certainly a symmetry [between Iron Man and Doom] at play here. There is an interesting examination of good and evil at play.”

@primetimecar There’s blame on everyone imo but I don’t think all of this needs to be on Evero or the defense. Definitely did not do their job at the end but gave the offense plenty of chances especially early in the second half and thanks to the OL and questionable play calling we got no TDs.
Joe & Anthony Russo’s Foreword for the Marvel Premier Collection release of Jonathan Hickman's 'AVENGERS: TIME RUNS OUT':
“We grew up in Cleveland, in an old, ethnic neighborhood that felt like something out of a fairy tale. Our world was pretty small, but the comics we found didn't feel that way. We'd pick them up from drugstores and corner shops - sometimes out of order, sometimes years apart - and we read them until they were barely holding together. They were surprising and rich with ideas that gained more meaning as we got older, and they opened up worlds that felt bigger, stranger and more honest than anything around us.
Secret Wars spoke to us in that same way. Jonathan Hickman created a story that felt enormous but also incredibly personal. It followed a universe pushed to the edge and asked a simple question that carried real weight: What remains when everything else falls apart?
When we joined Marvel Studios for The Winter Soldier, we had no idea where the journey would take us, only that we wanted to tell the best story we could. Our focus was to tell a story rooted in feeling and grounded in truth, and as our work expanded through Civil War, Infinity War and Endgame, the canvas grew, but the emotional center stayed close.
Hickman's work reminded us that the heart of any epic story lives in the people trying to survive it.
And then there is Doom.
Doom is not just an adversary. He is ambition and fear woven together. In Secret Wars, he tries to hold reality in place through sheer will. He believes he can save everything if he controls enough of it. Hickman reveals the strain behind that effort and the human fragility beneath the armor. Even someone who can reshape existence cannot escape the emotions that define him.
We have always been drawn to characters who walk that line. People who reach for something noble and lose themselves along the way. Sometimes, destruction does not arrive as a single blow. It arrives through decisions made in uncertainty and through fractures between people who want the same thing but cannot find their way to each other. That is its own kind of ending. It is quiet, painful and incredibly human.
In Time Runs Out, one of the most striking elements is how the world begins to slip. It is not a dramatic explosion. It is fear. It is compromise. It is the slow erosion of trust among people who care deeply and still cannot prevent the fall. Stories like that linger. They ask us to look at who we become when pressure shapes every choice.
Over the past decade, we have worked on stories that pulled us into extraordinary spaces. We have followed soldiers, spies, cosmic beings and everyday people who shoulder impossible burdens. Through all of it, one truth has stayed with us. Scale only matters when it is anchored in sincerity.
Secret Wars carries that sincerity through every page. It turns the end of everything into a story about identity, hope and the cost of wanting to save something larger than yourself.
We are still those kids from Cleveland who opened comic books and felt the world expand. The medium changed for us, but the sense of wonder never left. And, yes, we enjoy blowing up a building or two on screen, but books like this remind us why we fell in love with storytelling in the first place.”

@ediblplaydough I don’t even have a problem with adaptations doing something different the issue is removing or changing the core most interesting aspects of the character for no valid reason whatsoever
@ErisYoutuber@vaughanilla_cos I'd love this but man every opportunity they have to introduce him gets skipped and I'm just resigned to the belief Marvel and Sony refuse to have him show up
