Get ready to venture through the galaxies of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with me, Phil Smith, your trusty guide and fellow fan. We'll navigate together through a constellation of fan theories that could change the way you view your favorite Marvel superheroes, from Kamala Khan's research possibly hinting at the introduction of another character in Miss Marvel, to the formation of a council of Loki's in the Loki series.
