The COVID-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc on the film industry, but Disney Plus has capitalized on the switch to streaming by producing high-quality television.  WandaVision and  The Falcon and The Winter Soldier both proved engrossing and they built well on the Marvel Cinematic Universe.  The Bad Batch has also been delightful, and Marvel fans await the  Loki series (set to debut on June 9) with great anticipation. Yet  The Falcon and The Winter Soldier bit off far more than it could chew. If you haven’t seen the show, beware: spo...

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Is a Subtweet of Civil War Iron Man was released 13 years ago this May. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) spans 24 films across almost a dozen separate sub-franchises over more than a decade. It would take more than a fortnight to watch all of it, including the spin-off television shows in all their nebulous canonicity. In theory, this is a lot of baggage.

Screenshot: Marvel / Disney When I saw that the title of the fifth episode of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was going to be “Truth,” I may have fist-pumped a bit. That was the title of the 2003 comic book miniseries by Robert Morales & Kyle Baker that introduced Isaiah Bradley, subtitled Red, White, and Black, and I was hoping that we’d see more of Carl Lumbly’s MCU version of Bradley. I was not disappointed, as the scene with him and Sam Wilson was one of several excellent scenes in this take-a-breath episode that paused from the fight scenes to remind us of some of the themes ...
