Since the announcement of the possible Marvel Series being produced for the Disney Play streaming service, starting with Loki and the Scarlet Witch, I have been reading up on their plans. With Kevin Feige overseeing the shows, it seems clear they will be willing to spend huge amounts of money to produce some quality content and I am all for that.
