A recent hobby
Started shooting all sorts of things for fun lately. The camera is an α7 IV — shoot in RAW, edit in Lightroom, that kind of thing.
Easter eggs, trivia and analysis
Episode 6: settling things with Gravik, and a one-woman Avengers
Talos gets avenged by his daughter G’iah!! Nice!!
Never expected the real DNA to actually get handed over lol
And G’iah has now picked up just about every power of every character who turned up in Endgame, Thanos included! Way too strong…!!! What do they even do with her now lol
Swapping with G’iah
The real one going to the hospital while G’iah went to Gravik was a bit of a surprise lol
All sorts of powers
Being able to use Ebony Maw’s and Mantis’s powers as well — she really was strong. So does this mean protecting the Skrulls from here on is going to be her job?
Rhodey comes back
Rhodey was the only one who looked seriously drained, so does that mean he was swapped out right after Endgame? Armor Wars starts after this, so it’d be great to have this swap touched on again!
The deal with Sonya
At the end it looked like G’iah makes a deal with Sonya and starts something up! Meanwhile, and more on this below, it looks like Fury is starting peace talks with the Kree as well. Is this blue space another storage facility for humans? Things have reached the point where nothing gets resolved without a Secret Invasion season 2, so where does it go from here?
At odds with America
Off the back of this whole incident the US government has gone and branded not just the Skrulls but every non-human species as hostile…. yikes… Does this get resolved in Secret Wars or The Kang Dynasty? Or Captain America 4?
Fury’s comeback
Back on his feet mentally, and the old toughness is back too! And so glad he patched things up with the one he loves~
Where this goes next

Fury turns up in the trailer for the latest film, The Marvels, so maybe the peace talks with the Kree get shown there?
How the Kree peace-talks side and the Sonya deal side end up crossing over will be worth watching~
