#198 – Phase One vs. The Multiverse Saga

Marvel Maniac: an MCU Aftershow

Nick Fury once said, “There was an idea…” That idea didn’t end with the Battle of New York — it became the blueprint that built an entire cinematic universe. In this powerful reflection, Eric Sequeira (aka Mr. Honest) lines up Phase One against the Multiverse Saga, exploring how Marvel’s early conviction, patience, and character-first storytelling still echo across today’s multiversal landscape. From Iron Man’s gamble and Cap’s conviction to Doctor Doom’s looming debut in Phase Six, this episode asks what the MCU’s future can still learn from its humble beginnings. A celebration of belief, legacy, and the ever-evolving heartbeat of Marvel. Because the idea was never just about heroes — it was about us.
