TheCaptain Marvelsequel made history for inauspicious reason , achieving theMCU ’s lowest box office numbersto date . However , it was capable to succeed in setting up a young superhero squad which the franchise failed to do in the yesteryear . The concept of the A - Force , an all - women superhero team , was inclose briefly inAvengers : Endgame , butThe Marvelsprovides a much more viable setup for the team age later .

WhileAvengers : Endgametried to make history with itsall - distaff Marvel heroround - up gibe , the A - Force setup did n’t translate in the best direction . Marvel fans who wanted a succeeding A - Force encounter the moment to be forced , lazy , and cheesy , while more passing fan used it as a power point to fire criticism . What solidify the moment as a failure is that the MCU has yet to even bring up the implications of the moment since . However , The Marvelshas provided a glimmer of promise for the A - Force even if the team was never explicitly bring up .
