A god with a scepter and an army through a hole in the sky, stopped over roughly eight blocks. Then Stark builds the second one himself and it tries to drop a country, which is the first time the scale goes past one city.
Six stones and one snap: half of everything, everywhere, at once. The only villain in the saga who wins, holds it for five years, and gets the arc while the heroes get the losses.
Set up across Quantumania and Loki as the saga's next Thanos: not one villain but every variant of him, at war with himself across all of it. Dropped when Marvel parted ways with Jonathan Majors, and the Multiverse Saga lost its ending.
The replacement villain, with the man who played Tony Stark for eleven years coming back as Victor von Doom instead. Recasting your dead lead as your new villain is a genuinely extraordinary thing to try.
