The 'Agents of SHIELD' finale had a brilliant connection to 'Avengers: Endgame'
Agents of SHIELD finally came to a close after seven impressive seasons and a number of references to the Marvel Cinematic Universe along the way. And with its final episode, the writers used a particular plot point from Avengers: Endgame to help keep the timeline in balance. The latest season previously referenced Earth’s Mightiest Heroes after namedropping one of the most iconic villains in the franchise. But this latest connection answered the mystery behind Fitz’s absence in season seven.
It’s revealed that Fitz has been using the Quantum Realm to observe different timelines and alternate futures. Fans will obviously recognize the Quantum Realm from Avengers: Endgame, which allowed the heroes to travel throughout time to assemble their own Infinity Gauntlet. The Agents of SHIELD team even travelled to it using their own Quantum Tunnel. Although when it comes to time travel, Back to the Future co-writer Bob Gale recently opened up about Endgame‘s reference to the classic trilogy. It wasn’t the only tie to the wider universe though, with Daisy Johnson heavily implying that she’d joined SWORD. Fans think the space-based agency appeared at the end of Spider-Man: Far From Home, which revealed Nick Fury in space.
