It really doesn't feel all that long ago that fans were racking their brains over what the MCU's second phase would include, with 2012's Avengers having blown the door wide open for future forays into Marvel Comics' most cosmic elements.

And yet, here we are, five years on from the premiere of Iron Man 3 and on the cusp of a whole new phase of movies to look forward to. Truly, no other franchise has developed quite the same way as the Marvel Cinematic Universe has done this last decade, and while it's fair to say that Phase 1 was tackling uncharted territory as well, it was Phase 2 that really set it apart from the competition.

With sequels to Iron Man, Captain America, Thor and The Avengers releasing alongside franchise newcomers Guardians of the Galaxy and Ant-Man, Phase 2 set itself apart immediately with a more adventurous style, recruiting the likes of Shane Black, Joe and Anthony Russo and James Gunn to tell a selection of timely, unique tales that drew inspiration from classic space operas, buddy cop movies, and seventies conspiracy thrillers.

But - in spite of its revered status among the Marvel faithful - how well do you remember it? With six marvellous films to draw from, come try your hand at our quiz all about Phase 2, and see who comes out on top!
