Far down the line. Speculation into the Avengers films.

Hello CBMers!!! A lot of editorials lately in which people speculate immensley about multiple things in regards to future CBMs. Yet one franchise that seems to not be garnering to much speculation, that of the Avengers. More specifically, the third Avengers feature. Everyone knows that the sequel will entail an epic battle between the Avengers and Ultron. And most believe that the third will continue the story thread of that Thanos teaser from the first Avengers. However I offer speculation into the idea of another villain, perhaps in league with Thanos. My own theory into how the Scarlet Witch and the Avengers Disassembled storyline could be adapted for the MCU.

The first Avengers film obviously gained its inspiration from the earlier Avengers tales. It was Loki who played the strings in the comics, helping the team first come together. The second looks to borrow from some of the later stories. Those great stories that featured Ultron as the greatest of threats. Perhaps for the third they could draw inspiration from a large Avengers story from the modern age. One of the biggest tales was that of the Avengers Disassembled, the story of how the team succumbed to the attacks of an insane Scarlet Witch.

Now we know she will be introduced into the film series with Age of Ultron. We also know she won't be a mutant or related to Magneto. Perhaps she could be from one of the other realms. It is in the other realms were characters of magic seem to inhabit, for example Loki. This would help explain her powers and could also be used to link her to Thanos. As seen in Avengers, Loki was in contact with representatives of Thanos, and Thanos was extremely determined to invade Earth, or our realm. Having failed by using a vessel for an all out up front invasion, Thanos could use a different route. Sending someone powerful to Earth, to gain Intel and befriend this team that managed to stop his first attempt at invading Earth. Many also think before Avengers 3 there will be a Dr. Strange film. Maybe Dr. Strange is a human who has gained entry to the magical realm, the one of Scarlet Witch's origin. He explores it and gains powers, also becoming a great ally to the Avengers in defeating Scarlet Witch.

This type of story also seems to make sense and could tie up that Thanos thread. It could also be a nice way to offer a "reset" to the franchise, allow the team to make drastic shifts and changes. It makes for a great threat, the former teammate who was a villain all along. It would be surprising and still seem to be inspired by the comics, the Avengers Disassembled storyline.
