As Marvel‘s enterprise continues to spread across multiple movies and television shows, with properties landing everywhere from the big screen to your Netflix account, it’s understandable if you’re looking toward the horizon and feeling slightly overwhelmed, wondering how all these movies and shows will connect. Well, after you see "Avengers: Age Of Ultron" this weekend, you might want to print out the following infographic and hang it up on your wall.
Time has created this handy visual guide which does a great job at highlighting the relationship between the various characters, movies and more that are on the way. It’s great stuff for people (like me) who don’t know comics lore inside out, or sometimes can’t keep track of every thread of the endlessly circulating Marvel rumors. Yes, some of this stuff is speculation, but it’s not wild-eyed, and as a basic outline, seems to be a good roadmap for what’s ahead in the Marvel-verse.
