The Shocking Revelation Behind Fury's Avengers DNA Twist Revealed in the MCU's Official Timeline
MCU's Timeline Revelation Exposes the Troubling Twist in Fury's Avengers DNA Storyline, Demanding Accountability Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Intensifies the Gravity of the Harvest Narrative
Summary
New information in the updated Marvel timeline unveils Nick Fury's DNA experimentation in Secret Invasion to be more severe than initially believed. In a clandestine manner, he covertly obtained biological samples from the Avengers without their awareness.
The link between Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Secret Invasion amplifies the complications surrounding Fury's storyline of harvesting DNA, particularly in light of the heartrending origins disclosed about Rocket Raccoon in the former movie.
Regardless of Fury's morally ambiguous character, his undertaking of collecting DNA samples from the Avengers without their permission cannot be rationalized, necessitating that he be made responsible for his conduct.
The latest update to the Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline worsens the impact of Nick Fury's DNA experimentation reveal in Secret Invasion. The return of Samuel L. Jackson's beloved MCU character in Marvel Studios' first Phase 5 Disney+ series brings a significant change to his character. After being absent for much of Phase 3, Fury's comeback in Secret Invasion is driven by a new crisis. Failing to fulfill his promise alongside Captain Marvel to find a new home planet for the Skrulls, Fury now faces the daunting task of stopping Gravik and his followers from taking over Earth and claiming it as their own.
While Secret Invasion draws inspiration from a vast Marvel Comics story, it takes an unexpected narrative path. With the loss of Maria Hill and Talos the Skrull at the hands of Gravik, Fury reveals his final move against this villainous alien using The Harvest DNA samples. In a shocking twist within Secret Invasion, it is revealed that Fury secretly dispatched Skrulls to collect DNA samples from the Battle of Earth. This grants him access to genetic material from nearly every Avenger who participated in the climactic battle of Avengers: Endgame.
Secret Invasion Taking Place After Guardians Of The Galaxy 3 Makes The Harvest Worse
James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 has made its debut on Disney+, prompting Marvel Studios to update the official timeline of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The revised timeline reveals that the events of the Guardians of the Galaxy threequel occur before the intense confrontation between Fury and Gravik in Secret Invasion. Although Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Secret Invasion exist in separate parts of the MCU without any obvious connection, the events preceding the Disney+ series significantly worsen Fury's actions in harvesting DNA. In Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, the focus primarily lies on Rocket Raccoon's poignant backstory as a tormented subject of the High Evolutionary, in his attempts to enhance and humanize animal lifeforms.
It is worth noting that Fury is likely oblivious to Rocket's disturbing ordeal at the hands of the High Evolutionary, as depicted in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. However, from a storytelling perspective, it becomes hard not to feel infuriated by Fury's actions. While the harvested DNA sample undeniably aided in defeating Gravik and preserving Earth from a takeover, the ends can by no means justify the means in this case, particularly if it establishes a dangerous precedent. Fury's decision to prevent the Avengers from lending a hand, only to secretly gather their biological specimens for personal use, is unequivocally unjust.
Guardians Of The Galaxy 3 Proves Just How Bad Nick Fury's Harvest Storyline Is
Fury's moral ambiguity has been a consistent theme in the MCU. Both in The Avengers and Captain America: The Winter Soldier, he was caught being less than honest about his true intentions and actions. Despite the sobering experience of being erased by Thanos, it appears that Fury's inclination for craftiness remains unchanged, as evidenced by the Secret Invasion twist. Though he may try to defend his actions, it is challenging to overlook the suffering Rocket endured as a result of the High Evolutionary's experimentation. It is essential for Fury to face the consequences of his actions.
