Justice League: Infinite Earth Crisis - A blueprint for Avengers Five?
A recent Justice League animated film offers a remarkable road map for how the story might develop as the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) gets ready to explore its Multiverse Saga with Avengers 5. Particularly, Justice League: Crisis On Infinite Earths - Part 3, the last DC Tomorrowverse trilogy installment, presents a gripping narrative framework and resolution fit for the MCU's ongoing incursion plot.
Investigating the Incursions and Bleed
Inspired by the legendary comic book event, Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3 presents a multiverse whereby worlds collide owing to a concept known as the Bleed. Existing outside the multiverse, this dimension causes several worlds to "bleed" into one another, so endangering the fabric of reality. Fascinatingly, the Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness presented a similar idea with incursions, whereby the lines separating worlds weaken and result in catastrophic collisions.
Although the idea of multiverse stories has been around for a good amount of time, Justice League: Crisis On Infinite Earths - Part 3 provides a cinematic model for the consequences of several worlds entwine. Emphasizing the frailty of life in a multiverse environment, the movie graphically shows the terrible results of these meetings.
a Possible Fix for the Multiverse Saga
The way Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3 offers for the MCU's Multiverse Saga a convincing framework is remarkable. The heroes come to see the need of a single, steady universe to guarantee survival as they face the Anti-monitor, a powerful entity accountable for the collapse of the mult universe. This results in the combining of elements from many worlds into one Earth-Prime.
Although the precise course of the MCU's Multiverse Saga is yet unknown, Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3 offers a reasonable way to close the story. The MCU might start from a similar point—merging several worlds into a single entity—which would let for a reboot and reintroduction of legendary characters in fresh and interesting ways.
Does the MCU need a refreshing reboot?
The great breadth of the MCU—which features many characters and narratives—has produced a convoluted story terrain. Inspired by the resolution of Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3, a reboot could present a special chance to revive the franchise and investigate novel creative directions. By emphasizing a single, unified universe and keeping the core of known characters, this method may let the MCU negotiate a more simplified narrative path.
Although the Multiverse Saga has given the MCU both opportunities and difficulties, Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3 provides a useful guide for the kind of narrative Marvel might want for Avengers 5. The MCU's own multiverse story finds a strong template in the film's narrative structure, examination of the hazards of a multiversal collision, and final resolution.
