Iron Man is dead, Captain America has retired and Thor needs a personal trainer. With all this in mind we are left asking ... is it really worth continuing on in the post Infinity Saga MCU?

The answer, as if you really needed to ask, is a resounding YES!

What sets the MCU apart from other Cinematic Universes is the amazing longevity, consistency and humour that it carries into every outing, where other shared universes have struggled to get off the ground or stumbled before hitting their stride, the MCU has gone from strength to strength. And it will continue to do so in the future.

With the impending release of Black Widow and the real beginning of Phase Four, let's dive into 10 reasons why it will only get better from here.

10. The Implications Of Time Travel

We all had the head scratching moment after 'The Snap', how in the world will The Avengers reverse all the damage done by Thanos. When it was revealed that time travel was the answer to the Mad Titan, there was a collective 'let's see where they're going with this' and to the MCU's credit they didn't fall into cliche and type when it came to time travel. With that being said however, the existence of time travel readily available (without the Eye of Agamotto or Time Stone) poses a rather large problem in terms of continuity and consequence.

Ideally Marvel will find a way to write time travel out of the MCU as it raises far too many questions (and there does seem to be a suggestion that's coming in Loki), however what about any of the unforeseen issues that will no doubt be brought up in future?

Even with Captain America returning the Stones to precisely the same time and place as they were taken there will be questions asked, perhaps even characters made aware of things they shouldn't know. Most glaringly there will have been a version of Steve Rogers with complete knowledge of the future up to the events of Endgame sitting on the sidelines (what a Disney Plus series that would make).
