John Walker made history in the Marvel Cinematic Universe by becoming the first human being to face consequences for killing someone. How Does the Country Feel About John Walker? Rest assured, however, that the Flag-Smashers will still be out there somewhere, smashin’ flags. Granted, Marvel may soon decide that it’s no longer interesting to continue to harp on one event from a 2019 film for the rest of its filmmaking history and begin to move away from blip-storytelling soon. The issues of the blip won’t realistically go away and the Flag-Smashers are sure to become an embedded political movement within the MCU. In fact, in the continuity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it is undoubtedly the single most consequential moment in all of human history. The so-called “Blip” of Thanos removing half the Earth’s population and the Avengers returning it five years later will continue to have enormous implications for years to come. Yes, one of Captain America’s most consistent villains (though he’s more like an annoyance) has been working with Sharon a.k.a. Georges Batroc learns a very important lesson in this finale: never ask Sharon Carter for a raise. Don’t be surprised if Torres pops up again in a future Disney+ adventure to support his friend just like always. There probably aren’t any big plans for Torres to become his own Falcon-style superhero (but remember, he DOES have Sam’s old wings) but as WandaVision and The Falcon and The Winter Soldier have made clear, the MCU always has a need for sympathetic “normal” characters. He appears only briefly in this finale as we see him watch Sam deliver his speech to the Global Repatriation Council and smile at how far his friend has come.

Torres was a consistent presence in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier’s first few episodes. When it came time for Sam Wilson to get his own Sam Wilson, First Lieutenant Joaquín Torres of the U.S. Hell, that’s how we got Sam Wilson in the first place.

It's all about kindred spirits trying to find their own space after a life of oppression. Ultimately, this conversation speaks to family and acceptance, with Fury seeing himself in Talos, and vice versa. Given this experience, Fury sympathizes with the Skrulls to the point where strong emotional connection may well have been the reason he married a Skrull. It's still a very violent era that hurt the Black movement. Their plight of being hunted by the Kree is something he endured all his life in a white-dominated America that systematically hates his people. This exchange highlights how Fury, since his younger days, recognized something was wrong with the world and letting it act as a battery for his moral compass.īy informing where that seed came from, fans can now connect with his motivation as a liberator taking up the Skrull cause. Before, he couldn't meaningfully discuss racism with the many white individuals he surrounds himself with. This is a Fury fans have not seen before, not even in the Captain Marvel movie.
