Latest Marvel News: Secret Invasion throws shade on Captain Marvel hate as near record-low viewership doesnt bode well for Disney Plus

Needless to say, most of the chatter in Marvel-land today sprung from the arrival of Secret Invasion‘s second episode, which perhaps didn’t hit quite as hard as last week’s premiere but nonetheless dropped another huge bombshell and may have just delivered the MCU’s most graphic scene ever. It’s just a shame that it’s being watched by a mere fraction of those that have tuned in for previous Disney Plus shows from the House of Ideas…

The numbers have been crunched, and Secret Invasion officially has the second weakest opening ever to a Marvel Disney Plus series, with its first episode failing to scrape past 1 million views in the United States across its first five days on streaming. While it did better than Ms. Marvel, this pales in comparison to the 2.5 million that watched Loki‘s opener over the same period. Is this a sign that those Marvel titles with less of a cultural cache are doomed to a similar fate when they arrive in 2024? Should we start praying now for the likes of Echo and Wonder Man?
