It’s not a great time to be Marvel right now. The superhero studio has suffered a steep fall from grace in a short amount of time. After a slew of subpar projects onscreen, and plenty of strife behind the scenes, Marvel’s cinematic universe is on shakier ground than ever. And if that wasn’t enough, The Boys is officially back with more searing satire. Season 4 is leaning a bit heavier on political parody than previous seasons, but its latest episode finds some time to squeeze in a jab or two about Marvel, starting with one of its most hallowed traditions: the D23 Expo.
