What is known for certain is that wherever he shows up next, U.S. Could she be forming an entirely different team with Walker that doesn’t have the same moral compunction as The Avengers? Also, maybe. Could Val be helping to put together an MCU version of the Thunderbolts that includes U.S. In the comics, Ross forms his own team of seemingly reformed villains called the Thunderbolts that was led by, you guessed it, Zemo. There’s also the matter of Zemo, who’s now being held at The Raft, the super prison under the purview of William Hurt’s General Ross. Judging by Val being positioned as a more pragmatic (and possibly evil) version of Nick Fury, it seems like Dreyfus’ character is putting something together. So that leaves the Earth without an Avengers team, and it’d be a solid bet that someone is going to step in and fill that vacuum. As for Thor, he jetted off with the Guardians of the Galaxy. They’re both off the table along with Iron Man, who sacrificed himself to defeat Thanos. In the five years between The Snap and The Blip, Black Widow and Steve Rogers were running the team. Here’s what we know: After the events of Endgame, The Avengers appear to be disbanded. The guy is still very unstable, and that can present problems down the line. Let’s not forget that Russell’s version of Walker killed an unarmed man in cold blood after recklessly injecting himself with super-soldier serum. In the finale, there is definitely some question marks around whether he’s really good or bad, and he seems to be concernedly pumped about working for Dreyfus’ Val.

However, things went south as it became evident that the Red Skull was manipulating Walker and the U.S. Walker, on the other hand, was an ultra-conservative, hardline Christian who was very eager to do the government’s bidding as the new Cap. In the ’80s, John Walker was introduced as the new Steve Rogers after Captain America retired over the questionable patriotic zeal of the Reagan years.

That’s how you’re supposed to feel about John Walker, especially now that he’s assumed his more well-known persona from the comics who’s been a divisive character from the minute he first appeared on the page. If you walked away from the finale confused about whether he’s a hero or a villain now, don’t feel bad. While the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been lauded for drawing inspiration from decades of Marvel Comics, yet still blazing its own trail that keeps the films (and now shows) fresh and unpredictable, the The Falcon and the Winter Soldier season finale delivered a surprisingly comics-accurate moment for its most controversial and morally ambiguous characters: Wyatt Russell’s John Walker.
