You could say that the multiverse saga in the MCU doesn’t hit the same as the Infinity Stone Saga and you’d be correct.
With that said that doesn’t mean that it can’t get better and some recent fan art explores a possibility for Avengers: Secret Wars which should be dropping in 2026.
The art features Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man, Tobey Maguire’s Spiderman, and Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine.
'Secret Invasion': How It Changes The Marvel Universe
There's At Least One Super Skrull
G’iah now has the powers of lots of heroes and villains. When we see Gravik reading that the blood of Captain America, Gamora, Thanos, Captain Marvel, Abomination, Mantis, Cull Obsidian, Drax, Korg, Hulk, Thor Odinson, Valkyrie, Winter Soldier, are in the vial, he says, “It’s pure. You really wanna die.” After he turns the machine on to merge with the powers, Gravik’s Skrull form attacks Fury, but he blocks the punch with what turns out to be Hulk’s arm and punches him into oblivion. We then see it’s not really Fury, but G’iah. “You killed my mother. My father,” she says to Gravik. The two have an epic fight using these new powers and she stabs him in the chest with an ice arm. They use Captain Marvel’s powers to go airborne, and after Gravik thinks she’s knocked out, G’iah uses Mantis’ powers to make him sleep and crash head first back down. After G’iah rocks the classic superhero landing to end the battle, he says she’s just like her father. Just like “them,” she corrects him and blasts a huge hole through Gravik, killing him.
Rhodey and Ross Were Replaced By Skrulls
Following her battle with Gravik, G’iah goes back to the Skrull compound to free the hostages. Among them is the real Rhodey and Agent Ross (Martin Freeman). G’iah tells a weakened Rhodey that he’s been held hostage “for a long time.” But how long? Rhodey’s personality was obviously changed in Secret Invasion, but it’s hard to tell how long the Skrulls that took over him and Ross were impersonating them. Has Rhodey been a Skrull since the first Iron Man? Does he know anything about superheros? Was it ever him in the War Machine armor? Does he know that Tony Stark is dead? Have we ever known the real Ross? Was the ally of the Wakandians a Skrull the whole time? Was Julia Louis-Dreyfus’s Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine married to and divorced from a Skrull (and if so, did she know it? She seems to know everything).
Ritson Started A War
When Ritson addresses the American people about the motorcade attack, he reveals it was solely the work of the shape-shifting, alien-born species known as Skrulls. He reveals he will be presenting to Congress for immediate emergency authorization to designate all “off-world born species enemy combatants.” He then declared: “We know who you are. We know how to find you. And we will kill every last one of you.” With this kind of call-to-arms, he’s making the dire mistake of not distinguishing between those who want to leave peacefully and those who don’t. Following his announcement, Fury tells Ritson he took a bad situation and made it worse. “That’s real one-term-President stuff. But we have to act now.” As people are getting dropped for being Skrulls, Fury warns that the President’s “hit squads” are now inspired to kill the Skrulls who still want to help them. They are killing innocent people of power with no proof they are a Skrull, or putting themselves in danger of getting killed off by the real Skrulls. Ritson tells Fury that if he wants the Skrulls saved, he’s got to get them off his planet. With this war launched against Skrulls, will Ritson get killed off or be a one-term President like Fury predicted? In the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World, Harrison Ford is set to play President Thunderbolt Ross, so it’s got to be one of those two outcomes.
