Marvel’s latest plan to combat comic book burnout is simple: overpower us with nostalgia. In 2021, Spider-Man: No Way Homereunited three different Spider-Men and broke franchise box office records. Similarly, Deadpool & Wolverine crammed in as many cameos as possible and upcoming blockbuster Avengers: Doomsday will feature the return of former Iron Man Robert Downey Jr. seven years after his gallant departure in Endgame. He’s unlikely to be the only OG hero getting a call back either – even if Chris Evans swears blind he’s hung up Captain America’s shield for good.
