I think Zemo forms the Thunderbolts at The Raft, but Sharon Carter is the Power Broker.
Seems to on the nose, even for the MCU which is pretty heavy handed...but certainly a strong possibility.

Shang Chi’s father, is slated to be the real Mandarin...chances he could also be the Power Broker, curious timing for the trailer to drop 4 days before the finale 🤔
Too many loose ends. I almost feel like they made it messier than it had to be simply because they knew there was going to be a season 2.
I think they announced there is going to be a Captain America 4 movie instead of a TV show
Can someone explain why super soldier bucky with a vibranium arm has so much difficulty with rogue super soldiers?
It was explained. Kinda stupid. But noticed it during the last fights, he’s not using it. Not his dominant hand.He also seems to be going 70% compared to being the Winter Soldier. Guessing that’s his recovery messing with his mind?He also did a super hero landing.
Isn't he an extremely experienced fighter/soldier going against a bunch of gang members?I just don't understand how they can be on equal footing, combat-wise
Anyone catch Loki episode 1? Thoughts?
Really enjoyed it. It managed to be both fun and deep. I guess my only gripe might be the idea that all free will is sucked out of the universe with the existence of the TVA. If being unexpectedly late for work is something that can throw off the timeline and is thus regulated, doesn't it mean all the events of the MCU were just preordained and therefore inconsequential because they couldn't go any other way?I'm probably reading too much into it, but while I like the idea of variant Loki, I'm not sure how well the TVA will work out long term.
Loki variant is certainly an adversary not a villain, and my guess is we will rooting for them by shows end.The TVA is the big bad here, and I like the take they are worse than Thanos, controlling the universe for their needs, not some grand plan. If you are podcast fans, The Ringer Verse does two weekly shows, The Midnight Boys is quick reaction show, humorous and hot takes, and the deep dive show with Mallory Rubin is great too.It’s documented in the comics that Kang the Conqueor is a timekeeper, and he will probably make an appearance in Loki, and then more in movies like Dr. Strange II, and Ant Man 3.But in terms of the episode, absolutely loved it. Hiddleston and Wilson are absolutely fantastic together.
Would someone who knows very little about Loki or his backstory enjoy this?I have seen some of the Marvel movies, but nowhere near half of them. I have never watched any more than once, and I have never read the comics.
if you haven’t seen yet, watch Thor: Ragnorak, in my and many others opinion a top 5 MCU movie, with lots of Loki, and would be an excellent appetizer to the show Loki.If you haven’t seen the original Avengers and/or Infinity War and Endgame, you might be a bit confused, but you can read recaps. It’s really really well done
