Fantastic Four: 10 Things The MCU Must Deliver
1. Make Them The New Avengers
We're fully expecting to see more of The Avengers in the MCU (there are even rumours of Captain Marvel 2 setting the stage for New Avengers), and that's definitely a franchise we hope to see continue.
However, after seeing them receive so much of the spotlight over the first few Phases, it's about time a new team step into the spotlight, and Reed Richards and the Fantastic Four are the right heroes to lead the charge moving forward. Just like the MCU's heroes rallied around The Avengers, so too should they turn to this iconic foursome when it comes to any future threats to this shared world.
As we mentioned, the Baxter Building can be a beacon of hope for Earth's Mightiest Heroes to rally around, and with threats like Galactus, Annihilus, and any number of villains from the Negative Zone all on the way to the MCU, it makes perfect sense for the Fantastic Four to be the first line of defence.
The Avengers should live on, but it's definitely time for this foursome to get their time to shine...
