It is hard to believe that it was 8 years ago this week that Phase 1 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe came together in Avengers. In some ways, that seems like it was 25 years ago, because there have been such an influx of new films since then. After some initial casting troubles, the stars of Avengers have been a constant part of the MCU ever since (well, aside from some of them recently being written out due to death and/or time travel, but you know what I mean).
So, to celebrate where we all were 8 years ago, we’re reflecting on the character arcs of those initial heroes: Nick Fury, Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Black Widow, and Hawkeye. Which of them had the best arc after the initial film? We think there are a few that felt far more significant than the others, but we’re not taking the poll, you are! So, vote for your favorite MCU arc, and check back on Monday for the results!
