Marvel seems to have taken over the task of giving fans all they ever wanted after making them say goodbye to their favorite Avengers. The MCU shook the world with the announcement of its television content and standing true to its expectations, Marvel was able to produce television series taking us through stories that became the stepping stones to Marvel's phase four. The year started off with Wanda Vision and the hints of the multiverse, introducing us to the new Captain America while giving us a chaotic glimpse of Loki's afterlife. After such an eventful year on the small screen, it released its final series for the year with Hawkeye.

While the world is still basking in the release of Spiderman: No Way Home, the first season of Hawkeye will also be coming to an end today. The show filled with the spirit of Christmas has been a fun addition to Marvel's series this year. And just like the rest of its content, MCU was able to give the audience more surprises and characters that they have been waiting to watch again. The Avengers' failed Christmas day outing with his family, a future protege who wants to be like her hero, a lot of trick arrows that don't fail to amuse us, and two of our favorite characters merging the storylines in the universe.
