Part 4/7:

The MCU’s Overreach and the Power of Kevin Feige

Behind this bizarre decision was the revelation that the entire concept originated from Kevin Feige himself, the president of Marvel Studios and the key architect of the MCU. According to series director Ali Salim, Feige insisted on a climactic fight involving the super scroll—an entity with access to all superpowers.

Feige’s vision for the finale was to let every superpower be “fair game,” leading to what critics now dub the “superpower chaos.” During the showdown, Gaia’s new abilities clash in a chaotic battle, humorously framed as a hypothetical game of rock-paper-scissors—an analogy that captures how arbitrary and nonsensical the power distribution appeared.
