Marvel’s recent adjustments to its Phase 5 and 6 release schedules suggest a strategy reminiscent of the comic book industry’s response to market pressures. As superhero fatigue begins to emerge in cinemas, Marvel is focusing on its core franchises like the Avengers while integrating lesser-known characters into these popular narratives. This approach allows for an exploration of new characters without the risk of standalone failures, mirroring successful comic book tactics. The strategy also emphasizes complete storytelling within films, ensuring each movie provides a satisfying narrative arc, addressing critiques of Marvel’s previous reliance on interconnected sagas that sometimes left individual films feeling incomplete.

My theory is Feige et al had zero long term plans in place after Endgame. And now are backpedalling.
I’m thinking this Ant-Man head and shoulders hideout smelled horrible for a very long time. 🤣
It’s not superhero fatigue 💯 we just want well written and acted stories not more failed dei, box checking, feminist agenda forcing, man hating 💩
