Ms. Marvel Episode 5 MCU Easter Eggs & References
Warning: This article contains spoilers for Ms. Marvel episode 5.
Ms. Marvel episode 5 only contains a handful of Easter eggs, which is perhaps intentional given its place in the show's setup. In the comics, there's a sense in which Kamala Khan has always existed in the shadow of other superheroes. Even her code name, "Ms. Marvel," is a legacy one — naturally means she's endlessly finding herself drawn into Carol Danvers' orbit. The MCU, however, has chosen to subvert that.
Ms. Marvelepisode 1 was packed with Easter eggs, largely because so much of it revolved around AvengerCon. The focus at that early stage lay on exploring Kamala Khan's relationship with the wider MCU, specifically in her being a major Captain Marvel fan. Kamala's world changed when she placed a mysterious ancient bangle around her wrist, activating a power that lay dormant within her bloodline. Since then, she's been on a quest of self-discovery, exploring her own history and heritage — literally in the case of Ms. Marvel episode 5, which features a time travel plot in which Kamala shapes her own personal family history. This approach naturally means the Easter eggs have reduced in number, and episode 5 has the least yet.
