MCU: 12 Burning Questions We Have After Comic-Con
12. Why Was Armor Wars Completely Omitted?
Phase Four has been wildly different from the previous three phases of the MCU in many, many ways, but one of the biggest is the inclusion of the limited series on Disney+. From WandaVision to She-Hulk, this new platform has been huge for the franchise.
This won’t stop moving into Phase Five, with the likes of Agatha: Coven of Chaos, Secret Invasion, Daredevil(!), and many more set to premiere over the next few years. Most of the Disney+ slate confirmed for Phase Five was already known about, while Daredevil: Born Again was a new announcement, but there was one series that was left out of Kevin Feige’s Hall H presentation entirely.
So, where was Armour Wars? Everyone is already aware that Rhodey will be leading his own series on Disney+, but this was the only one that was not even mentioned. Seemingly the rest of Phase Five was detailed, it seems strange to omit just one.
Soon after the curtain fell on Marvel’s time at SDCC 2022, Armour Wars writer Yassir Lester took to social media to confirm to concerned fans that the series is definitely still happening. Could it be that it is a part of Phase Six and Kevin Feige didn’t want to take anything away from the Fantastic Four and the Avengers? This seems like a flimsy excuse at best, but there must be a reason, right?
