Watch this somehow be less grim than last week. I was kidding, show!

Also, {Spoiler} Having one of Boseman’s last line be…that is just…goddamn, man…

Also, {Spoiler}{Spoiler} Having one of Boseman’s last line be…that is just…goddamn, man… {Spoiler}"In my culture, death is not the end. They are still with us, as long as we do not forget them."
Knowing he delivered that line with just a few months left to live... man, that got me right in the feels.

Certainly the weakest of the episodes thus far, but is a pretty faithful upholding of the usual zombie movie tropes... {Spoiler}- The military are useless (or, in this case, the Avengers) - Survivors splitting up and getting killed (and doing so again later on) - Several attempts to make things better having the opposite effect - Underground military base - A character getting infected and using their last moments to save the rest - A character being unable to bring themselves kill their zombified loved one - Two "I'll hold them off" heroic sacrifices
And again, we have a setup for a potential sequel episode in season 2 - Wakanda's besieged by zombie Thanos and his zombie hoarde, and the fates of Hulk and Bucky are somewhat ambiguous.

Geez, couldn't we get something that ends uplifting?

{Spoiler}Now that I think about it, how did Thanos with all but one of the Ininity Stones get infected? His skin's virtually unbreakable, and even if he does get infected he can just rewind time or use the Reality Stone to heal himself.

I just got caught up on the last 3 episodes.
Good grief was this all kinds of awesome.
And to get Black Panther again!? Too emotional.

I think when Marvel first did their zombies thing, they end up capturing and eating silver surfer which gives several of the avenger zombies the power cosmic and leads to them eating Galactus and basically the entire universe if I remember correctly. So it's probably something along those lines. Although in the comics they regained their intelligence whenever they ate I think.

The hell was that pacing at the end?

Man that was DARK. Surprised Disney + gave the thumbs up on it.

It was dark for sure, yet also the episode with the most gags by far- I think they were trying to give it a more goofy undertone than a harrowing one.

{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}When Banner was sacrificing himself to save the others I thought the last thing you want is a zombie Hulk running around.

{Spoiler}I really enjoyed the zombie episode, another screwed up ending. I was shocked they finally mentioned Uncle Ben.

When Hope was making her sacrifice, though, I immediately thought that maybe shrinking back to regular size before she died would be a good idea.

We got ourselves a good ol' fashion mid-season trailer with a lot of hints towards something big at the end of the season.

I finally watched the episode last night and almost started watching Homecoming to see if he was mentioned in that because I can't remember. LOL
