Just when you thought nothing could steal the spotlight from Julia Garner's ridiculously sleek Silver Surfer or Ralph Ineson as the planet-devouring giant Galactus in "The Fantastic Four: First Steps," it seems the film's version of Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) has gone and grown himself a beard.

This article contains spoilers for "Ironheart" episodes 1-3. There are plenty of MCU characters whose stories have diverged from their comic origins. Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) had abilities similar to Reed Richards' embiggening powers on the page, which were changed to crystal-forming skills in her show. Baron Zemo (Daniel Bruhl), too, shifted from being the more comic-accurate son of a former Captain America foe to an elite and vengeful Sokovian soldier seeking justice for his family's loss.

It's hell on Earth in "28 Years Later." Well, for the unfortunate folks in the United Kingdom, that is. Danny Boyle's post-apocalyptic threequel (which starts a brand new trilogy of its own) drives the message home that the British Isles are all alone, having lost the battle to the rage virus. The world has carried on without them, giving us a brutal and bleak look at an alternate timeline where pivotal real-life events in British history never happened.

It's been two years since we last saw "Moon Knight," and while it's still possible we might get a second season, we're still no clearer on how or when we'll see the return of one of Marvel's most daring and original Disney+ shows. Clarification on whether the Fist of Khonshu would be making a comeback would be a treat for fans, especially given how the show ended by finally revealing the third personality of Marc Spector (Oscar Isaac), Jake Lockley.
