The world was talking about Agatha and for all the right reasons.
7. Welcome, Scarlet Witch

In Avengers: Endgame, Steve Rogers retired and passed on his legacy to Sam Wilson. However, the Disney+ series The Falcon and The Winter Soldier focused on Sam’s dilemma. He was hesitant in becoming the new Captain America but his journey to wearing the new costume, courtesy of Wakanda, was epic.

2. Spider-Man vs, Doctor Strange
