Marvel's Thunderbolts* Marketing Push Continues as Dispute Between Sam Wilson's Avengers and the New Avengers Is Dragged Into the Real World

Oh, the girls are fighting. Marvel Studios recently revealed a whole new side of Thunderbolts*, the one that comes after that asterisk — and now, it's doubled down on what it started and brought it into the social media world.

Marvel has now added a copyright symbol to some of its social media bios for the official Avengers pages — which plays perfectly into the post-credits scene for Thunderbolts*.

Warning! Spoilers for Thunderbolts* follow.

Spoilers for sure, but this new team formed in Thunderbolts*, which have been dubbed The New Avengers, is clashing with Sam Wilson’s team, the one he began to build during Captain America: Brave New World. And in the film’s post-credit scene (brought to you by the Russo Brothers via the set of Avengers: Doomsday), we see that Sam has in fact copyrighted the Avengers name, so like I said earlier, the girls are fighting.

Shortly after Thunderbolts* debuted in theaters on May 2, Marvel Studios revealed that the asterisk at the end of the movie’s title actually referenced the project’s secret title: The New Avengers. To mark the occasion, the cast unveiled a new poster for the movie that features the new name — and naturally, the move has been a bit divisive, both in the real world and now, in-universe.

It’s clear the social media gimmick is most likely a hint for what’s to come between the Avengers and the New Avengers. Needless to say, this little dispute between heroes is going to be a key player in the overall story as we move forward within the MCU, especially considering many of the members are also part of the immense cast of Avengers: Doomsday.
