Fans often make up alternative plots for Marvel stories

What if Thanos — the super-villain who makes even superheroes like Spiderman shake like a leaf with fear — had orchestrated the entire saga built in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) to ensure his own demise, because that’s the only way he could be one with Lady Death, whom he loves from the bottom of his heart?

That is an alternative ending that Nathan Patra, a musician who is a huge fan of MCU, tells us about ahead of an event this weekend that is based on conspiracy theories themed on the franchise. Prerna Deewan, founder of student community The Visionific that is organising it, says that the event will be broken down into two parts — a group discussion, followed by selected participants debating the veracity of a particular theory. The entire exercise is thus meant for people who are such hardcore fans that they can dissect alternative MCU plotlines at the drop of a hat. It’s not meant for people who don’t know Captain America from Adam.
