Editorial: What Direction/Story Should Avengers 2 Move To

Hello and I'm The Comic Critic,

Phase 2 of Marvel is moving fast now, with Iron Man 3 and Thor 2 on their way 2013 seems to be an exciting year. To mention possibly Ant-Man finally getting his own film plus Gaurdians of The Galaxy. With all of this in store for us we have to wonder, what would The Avengers 2 be about. It has been rumored Thanos was going to be the villian for Gaurdians of The Galaxy, so if Thanos is stopped in that film would their be a point of him being in Avengers 2. Or how about Loki we would have to wait and see what happens to him in Thor 2. But the Marvel Universe is endless and many things could happen. Including an Alternate Universe or time being reversed endlessly until the clock runs out.

In my opinion, The Avengers 2 should be about our heroes being trapped in an alternate timeline where Loki has ruled Earth and all hell is loose every kind of demon or creature you name it. How might this happen may you ask, possibly Thanos creates a deadly rift between both time and space creating alternate outcomes of previous events and major what if's. As so what if in a world where Tony Stark never became Iron Man or What if Agent Coulson is still alive. We will see these different what if outcomes and more alternate back and forth throughout the film itself creating an interesting movie piece. As if it was Inception but based in The Marvel Universe itself. I think Fox holds the rights to The Watcher because of Fantastic Four so they could invent a new version for the film. Loki and Thanos will be seen in supporting roles as they set part of this story also including the aliens. It would connect ever single previous film spanning across different and alternate timelines and such.

Now this may seem like a strange idea but it could work. It would involve many plot twist too throughout. It also opens the way to introduce new characters or heroes we have not seen yet since one of the alternate timelines I imagine takes place in the future. Joss Whedon has said in an interview it's better to go on a smaller scale and this would be the perfect chance to do so if they advanced with this type of story.

If you have any comments or suggestions post in the comics and I'll read them below.
