Avengers: Secret Wars should be an Endgame-like event in which superheroes from all over the multiverse will help the Avengers we know and love defeat Kang. That’s not really a spoiler at this point. We assumed as much even before Marvel unveiled the titles of the Multiverse Saga’s two Avengers movies.

But we’ve already explained how Marvel can use Tony…

Quantumania will feature Paul Rudd’s Scott Lang and Evangeline Lilly’s Hope Van Dyne as they venture through an uncharted portion of the Quantum Realm controlled by Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror. Dastmalchian was confirmed to be returning in a past report, which led fans to believe that the MCU veteran would be returning as Kurt Goreshter, the character he played in both previous Ant-Man films.

Perubahan formasi ini memanfaatkan kualitas terbaik Roberto Firmino, sekaligus memungkinkan Darwin dan Mohammed Salah bermain lebih dekat, dan itu terbukti berhasil hingga jeda tengah…

On an ideal day for Pep Guardiola, the Manchester City manager saw plenty of hunger and ambition from his players If Thursday saw plenty go wrong for Pep Guardiola in the first half of Manchester City’s league game at Chelsea, Sunday’s FA Cup tie could hardly have gone better.

Not only that, a team that has struggled for years with penalties scored two of…
