Avengers Endgame: This Marvel hero no one noticed at the end of the movie

Captain America, Iron Man, Scarlet Witch, Spider-Man, Captain Marvel and… Howard the Duck?! Did you notice the very discreet appearance of this unknown Marvel character in ‘Avengers: Endgame’, which airs Sunday night on TF1?

We are Avengers: Endgame. With all hope seemingly lost and Thanos preparing to unleash his forces to storm Earth, all the heroes who have been suppressed by the Mad Titan suddenly come back to life and join Captain America in the final battle.

With the super-soldier, the entirety of the Marvel Cinematic Universe putting itself into combat mode. Spiderman, Iron Man, Thor, Captain Marvel, Hulk or Scarlet Witch. No hero is missing, and the ranks of the Avengers are reinforced by the armies of Wakanda, Asgard and the Ravagers.

It’s hard to spot because the crowd is compact, but a very special Marvel character that 80s fans and kids really know is also showing off his beard in the latest episode of the movie, which TF1 just aired on Sunday night. Indeed, Howard the Duck is there, dressed in a suit, armed with a large machine gun.

The hero of the 1986 feature film directed by George Lucas, this “ugly duckling” of the Marvel team suffered a fate that was unpleasant, to say the least, when he emerged from the egg. Excluded from society, atomized by critics, Howard … A new breed of heroesRecounting the plight of alien algae dropped on Earth, barely managed to cover a third of the budget.

A bitter failure that, according to legend, forced Lucas to keep a copy of the film in a safe to prevent video exploitation, and led him to sell his animation division to a certain Steve Jobs, indirectly leading to the creation of Pixar Studios. .

More than 30 years after being stuck in the water, here’s Howard back on the big screen, among his superhero comrades in Idées Maison des.

however, Avengers: Endgame does not mark his first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Indeed, as you know, if you are used to staying until the end of the credits, the duck already appeared at the end of Guardians of the Galaxy, in the company of the collector, then in Guardians of the Galaxy 2, in a bar on the planet Contraxia.
