Description

Marvel just pulled off the wildest magic trick in comic book movie history: they’re burying the Fox X-Men universe with one hand and rebooting the MCU with the other—while Robert Downey Jr. pretends to be someone he’s not (again). Pablo and Brian break down the Avengers: Doomsday chair-a-thon, dissect who’s really in control (spoiler: probably Doom), and why Marvel might be using this film as both a funeral and a fresh start. Plus: Cyclops redemption? Seb Stan glow-up? And the multiverse saga’s biggest plot twist—Feige might not even want the Russos back?! Let’s get into it.
