Now it’s time to take the leap back and begin fixing things. We’ve just completed a most revolutionary experiment – a test jump through time. I’m writing this because I’m at a bit of a crossroads. The following content is a transcription of a letter penned by an individual claiming to be Anthony Edward “Tony” Stark. And that’s where this mind- and time-bending letter fits in. Years pass, and the remaining Avengers try to adapt, until Ant-Man (Scott Lang) reappears from the Quantum Realm where he was trapped and offers a potential method to travel back in time and collect the Infinity Stones from different points in history. In Endgame, the surviving heroes try to take the Stones off Thanos to perform a reverse snap, but he has already destroyed them. Unfortunately, things don’t go well and when Thanos brings the Stones together using the Infinity Gauntlet, he wipes out half of the population of the universe with a snap of his fingers. In Infinity War, the Avengers are trying to stop the villain Thanos from getting the Infinity Stones – powerful objects that each control an aspect of existence. įor those unfamiliar with the final two Avengers films, here’s a very quick, spoiler-heavy, synopsis.
