So the series finale of Secret Invasion has thrown the world into chaos. Setting us up for Nick Fury’s newest mission in The Marvel’s and a fight with the new Kree villain, Dar-Benn. As well as setting up Thunderbolt Ross for his long-awaited revenge in Captain America: Brave New World, and Phase 5’s final film, Thunderbolts.

And a little later we’ll talk about how we could see an unlikely alliance between Thunderbolt Ross and Dar-Benn Den-Barr. [clip, would you like to form an alliance]

So for me, Secret Invasion was pretty underwhelming. I was really hoping that this show would be able to stick the landing and salvage the series. But… [clip]

But despite the series' anticlimactic ending, it did lay some serious groundwork for what's to come in Phase 5 of the MCU. The world is in absolute chaos. Despite Fury and Gaiah defeating Gravick to prevent a human-Skrull war from happening–it looks like it's going to happen anyway. [clip]

President Ritson’s reckless reaction to the Skrull invasion and attack on his life has lit a fire that I’m not sure could ever truly be stopped. The President of the United States just confirmed that shape shifting aliens exist and labeled them enemy number one.

So we all knew that Secret Invasion would likely end with Fury going back to space. Because, in The Marvels trailer we saw him back on the space station. He’s returning to space to begin talks with the Kree who are interest in peace talks with the Skrulls–meaning that we could see the Skrulls get to migrate to planet Hala and live in Harmony with the Kree.

Now this is pretty significant considering that the Kree and the Skrull were at war for a long time. In Captain Marvel we learned that unlike in the comics, the Skrulls weren’t the instigators in their war with the Kree. [clip]

So it makes sense that the Kree would be open to redeeming themselves of their Skrull genocide. After Captain Marvel defeated Yon-Rogg and The Supreme Intelligence and exposed their lies and manipulation to the other Kree, I could see new leadership looking to rectify their past transgressions against the Skrulls.

Doug: Why can’t the Skrulls go live on that planet Thanos went to after the snap?

Because that’d make too much sense.

So anyway, in The Marvels we’ll be meeting a new villain, Dar-Benn. In the comics Dar-Benn was very displeased with the Kree’s new leader and attempted to assassinate him and place the blame on the Skrulls.

I think this is EXACTLY what we’ll be seeing take place in The Marvels. A wartime character like Dar-Benn will be very critical of the Kree’s new leader as well as Carol Danvers Captain Marvel who she calls [clip]

She likely holds a big grudge against Captain Marvel for destroying the Supreme Intelligence and helping the Skrulls. So when Dar-Benn learns that the new Kree leadership is considering peace talks with the Skrulls, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see her assassinate the new Kree leader and try to pin it on the Skrulls, as well as Earth and Captain Marvel. Thus putting a stop to any peace talks.

And it’s worth mentioning Dar-Benn’s resemblance to Ronan the Accuser, both wielding these pretty badass hammers.. [clip]
