"Last week’s buzzy episode of WandaVision ended with a game-changing twist when it comes to the Marvel universe and its superheroes. A big twist! Huge! Nothing in the Marvelverse will ever be the same!" says Kevin Fallon. "I did not understand this twist in any way, shape, or form. But, oh boy, did I love it anyway. As an entertainment force, Marvel is overwhelming. Intimidating, even. There’s so damn much of it. There’s so much passion and devotion in its fanbase. As the years go by, the content churn intensifies, and the existing fan engagement deepens. What is ostensibly one of the biggest mass-market franchises in entertainment has become increasingly inaccessible to those with a more casual relationship to all things Avengers. That’s all a naval-gazing way to say I have come to not really like the Marvel universe. Yet, I love WandaVision. Is the Disney+ series, which filters a complicated mystery surrounding two of its marquee characters—Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff and Paul Bettany’s The Vision—through the prism of classic TV sitcoms through the decades, finally a Marvel project for people who don’t like Marvel?"
