Why Was Captain Marvel Barely in Avengers Endgame?

She was teased as the ultimate savior after ‘Infinity War’, so why was Captain Marvel barely in ‘Avengers: Endgame’? The answer reveals a fundamental problem that has been growing within the MCU for years.

This video explores how Captain Marvel’s immense power created a massive storytelling challenge for Marvel Studios. We’ll break down why her solo film made her too strong too fast, the weak excuse given for her absence, and how her brief, game-breaking appearance in ‘Endgame’ is a symptom of a much larger issue: the MCU’s inability to balance its most powerful heroes.

Join us as we analyze how this “power creep” problem forces Marvel into a corner, leading to repetitive stories and villains that can’t measure up.
