Vote Here in We Bought a Bracket!
For the first year ever, we’re jumping in on the bracket madness that takes over the internet for the next two months! We decided that with Avengers: Endgame just around the corner, and Captain Marvel recently released in theaters, it would be a great time to do one themed on the Marvel Cinematic Universe! Welcome to We Bought a Bracket: The Mad Titan Championship! So, in that spirit, here is the MCU Madness: VILLAINS Bracket! On the list, we included various MCU characters who have been antagonists, villains, and evil-doers in the world of the Disney/Marvel Connected Universe. We cut out the X-Men, Fantastic Four, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and Sam Raimi Spider-Man franchises. Sorry guys, better luck next year!
You can find the link to the Google Doc below! We’ll post results here at We Bought a Blog, and we’re going to close the voting on March 20th, 2019. Voting for our Sweet 16 will begin on March 21, 2019. You can find the full schedule below!
