MCU Phase 4 Post-Credits Scene Finally Pays Off
One of Marvel's Phase 4 post-credits scenes is finally getting its payoff, continuing the MCU's tradition of planting seeds for future stories. Back during the Infinity Saga, these scenes became legendary for either being hilarious Easter eggs or major setup moments for what's coming next. Phase 4 had a rougher reputation overall, but apparently at least one of its post-credits moments is coming to fruition. It's validating to see Marvel follow through on plot threads instead of just abandoning them.
ComicsBuzz Take
This payoff probably matters less for what it accomplishes story-wise and more for signaling that Marvel's tightening up its long-form storytelling after Phase 4's scattered approach.
