The MCU Reveals Civil War's Avengers Problems Haven't Ended
Warning: Spoilers for Ms. Marvel episode 2
Ms. Marvel episode 2 reveals that Captain America: Civil War’s Avengers problems are still an issue in Phase 4. The Avengers may be defunct now, but Marvel’s recent movies and TV shows prove that there’s still a large number of superheroes currently doing their part to protect the world after Avengers: Endgame. Kamala Khan’s six-episode Disney+ series is providing a new perspective on some of the Earth’s protectors without actually showing them.
In a certain way, Ms. Marvel episode 1 felt like a celebration of the Avengers and several other MCU superheroes, particularly Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel. Kamala and Bruno’s trip to AvengerCon was jam-packed with MCU Easter eggs and references to multiple established characters. It confirmed that so many of the MCU’s heroes have developed sizable fan followings. Even Captain Marvel, who spent a very limited amount of time on Earth as a hero, had people like Kamala cosplaying as her at Ms. Marvel’s AvengerCon. The episode also touched on the public’s knowledge of the battle with Thanos and the Avengers’ efforts to take him down at the end of Avengers: Endgame.

Her sarcastic comment appears to be a reflection of this idea that superheroes are responsible for a lot of the problems they end up fixing. And admittedly, it was Kamala’s powers that put Zoe in danger in the first place.
