As a non-comic reader, I hate the multiverse stuff. It's "cool" factor reduces the stakes for anything.

This x1000. I really don’t think you can do any sort of series based around multiverse or time travel stuff, because once you pull on the thread (as you’ll do with a series of movies or shows), it’s clear that nothing matters as you said, because you can always just redo in some other timeline.

Additionally, it’s absolutely a mistake to try to put really important story stuff in tv shows. I’m a grown man who likes to sit in a theater from time to time and watch some Transformers or superhero’s fight each other with a box of popcorn, but you’re batshit if you think I’m watching these thousands of marvel shows that they’re making to be able to follow the plot. Nowadays when I try to watch one of these movies, nothing makes a damn clue bc I didn’t see whatever episode in whatever tv show introduced this character or plot twist.

It’s so silly and alienates anyone who doesn’t watch everything.
