Thor Takes Command as Multiple Captains America Converge
A baseball-themed crossover promo during the World Series debuted just 24 hours before Marvel released a new promotional trailer for Avengers: Doomsday on Saturday. The footage showcases a lighthearted dynamic among the franchise’s multiple wielders of the Captain America shield alongside Thor and Mjolnir.

During a battle briefing, he rallies the gathered roster to confront Doctor Doom, warning that the villain intends to tear the world apart and urging the team to stay united.
