Avengers: Infinity War is here, and millions of fans are trying to process all the things the film threw at them. The blockbuster kept a promise to upturn the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Thanos went about collecting the Infinity Stones, and its bit cliffhanger left audiences dumbstruck. In fact, most fans left the film with more questions than answers, but that is alright.
After all, ComicBook is here to breakdown some of the top unanswered questions Avengers: Infinity War left behind!
So, this is our obligatory spoilers warning. If you have not seen Avengers: Infinity War yet, do not read below this paragraph. Major spoilers for the film lie below! We repeat: MAJOR spoilers for the movie lie below. You’ve been warned.
From Xandar to Red Skull, the latest Avengers entry prompted a whole bunch of questions and very few answers. Time will only tell fans the answers to those queries, but the answer key may not rest within Avengers 4. With Ant-Man and the Wasp and Captain Marvel on the horizon, Marvel Studios has lots of space left to address your burning questions, and there are several that fans are dying to have answered ASAP!
Which questions did Avengers: Infinity War leave you hanging on? Let me know in the comments or hit me up on Twitter @MeganPetersCB to talk all things comics, k-pop, and anime!
Marvel Studios’ Black Panther is still in theaters, whole Avengers: Infinity War hits theaters today. It will be followed by Ant-Man and The Wasp on July 6, 2018, Captain Marvel on March 8, 2019, the fourth Avengers movie on May 3, 2019, the sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming on July 5, 2019, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in 2020.
The MCU knows how to slip important information by fans on the fly, but that doesn’t mean audiences don’t need to know the ins-and-outs of those bombs. When Avengers: Infinity War saw Thor confirm that Xandar had been decimated by Thanos, fans had a lot of questions about the ordeal and received zero explanation.
According to the film, Thanos went after Xandar as the world was hiding the Power Stone, and the Mad Titan needed it. The villain managed to wipe out at least half the planet’s population and stole the stone despite Xandar being powerful enough to stave Ronin way back when. Avengers: Infinity War moved beyond the issue pretty quick, but there is a chance fans will learn more about the planet’s destruction should Marvel Studios introduce Nova to the MCU soon.
The opening moments of Avengers: Infinity War left fans know a few major things, but it did little to assure fans about Valkyrie or the Sakaar gang. At the end of Thor: Ragnarok, the group of MCU newcomers were seen aboard the Sanctuary II, but they weren’t seen anywhere in the carnage Thanos’ Black Order left behind after they attacked the refugee vessel. The crowded scene didn’t have much room to address those characters’ fates, so fans are left to believe they managed to survive, escape into space, or were killed with all the other Asgardians. So, here’s to hoping Avengers 4 will shed more light on their status.
Clearly, a solid chunk of time has passed between the end of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and the beginning of Avengers: Infinity War. The intergalactic heroes come back into play when they receive a destress call, but fans can tell the biggest passage…
