After Marvel’s revival in recent years, it has badly needed a Chinese or Chinese-descended superhero. But in Marvel’s existing roster, there really haven’t been many suitable characters to choose from. As the saying goes, things reverse when they reach an extreme; prosperity declines at its peak. The Avengers may well represent the high point of this latest Marvel resurgence, and it will be difficult to sustain that momentum going forward.
