From Redditor u/ahs-freak-show:
In one of her last lines, she tells the Monsignor, “I’m [the devil] about to devour the last morsel of her soul.” Mary Eunice herself then breaks through, crying and admitting she’s tired of fighting. They were both always inside her, with the devil holding the reins for the most part but never 100% in control, because Mary Eunice was always there fighting to survive in even the slightest amount.

Matt Murdock Was Blipped, But Kingpin Wasn't
From Redditor u/ghostrider8303:
During the five year gap, Daredevil was blipped away but Kingpin wasn't. Hence Kingpin was able to get out of prison and regain some power through the Tracksuit Mafia. At the same time, Hawkeye/Ronin went on rampage killing them but there was no Daredevil to stop him.

The Darkhold Sent Agatha To Westview In 'WandaVision'

From Redditor u/jbafofi4:
I always found it strange how despite having the book for centuries, Agatha seems more sane and rational than Wanda. Agatha is evil but the spell book is really going hard on Wanda, corrupting her and making her a power hungry selfish beast.
Then it hit me.
The Darkhold likely did the same thing to Agatha. It sent Agatha to Wanda with the impression of “Hey, that mythical entity that is foretold to destroy the world? Yeah, no forget that. You can take her and take her powers for yourself, sis! Go into the hex!” Just like Wanda, Agatha was being influenced by the power of the book and being told things she wants to hear in order to fulfill what the book wants.
Rationally, Agatha would know she could never defeat Wanda, or that Wanda being destined to be the scarlet witch will come to fruition, but Agatha wasn’t thinking rationally because of the book.

Kingpin Leveled Up Illegally In 'Hawkeye'

From Redditor u/ProfessorOfLies:
This is speculation about how and why Fisk is muuch bigger in Hawkeye than when we last saw him at the end of Daredevil. He also appears waaaay stronger than he was in Daredevil. He not only throws Kate through a wall, but he survived a massive explosion without taking much damage. He got hit by a car and smashed THROUGH a shop front and tore a car door off its hinges with his bare hands. Even body builders can't tear steel like its paper. My speculation is that he has taken some sort of super soldier serum.
We know that the world never stopped trying to replicate it (TFATWS). Though it appears that all known sources are tidied up by the end of The Falcon, it's entirely possible that other efforts bore fruit. Efforts funded by Fisk. This will also go towards explaining how he survives a gunshot to the face when we next see him.

Aemond And Helaena Are Having An Affair In 'House Of The Dragon'

From Redditor u/Southern_Dig_9460:
Evidence for the theory that Aemond and Helaena are having a affair and the twins aren’t Aegon’s:
When they were kids Aemond said he’d be happy to marry Helaena it would keep the bloodline pure. Aegon found the idea repulsing. During Helaena’s toast she mentions Aegon ignores her most of the time. When Jace asked Helaena to dance Aemond looks more pissed than Aegon does. When Otto is walking out of Helaena's room Alicent says “Father?” To which if you listen closely one of the children say “Aemond” (maybe a stretch because the subtitles just say “babbling”).
Aemond walks into Helaena's room he’d have no idea his mother was in there probably had seen the maid take the kids out too, so why was he going in there for? Aemond stands in front of Helaena to protect her from Meleys. She even grabs his shoulder as she does. Got more of a lovers feel than a sibling one there.
Best evidence Aemond tells Cole he’s next in line for the throne behind Aegon. Only true if Jaehaerys isn’t really Aegon son but Aemond's instead. Hypocrisy seems to be a theme the writers of the show are trying to convey for the Greens and what’s more hypocritical than their King having bastards that are next in line or Aegon and Helaena having a open marriage like Rhaenyra’s was.

Homelander Is Going To Hand Pick A New Seven In 'The Boys'

- The Boys
- Amazon
From Redditor u/Hadesman1:
The Seven, while they are the premiere superhero team, clearly aren't actually intended to do much beyond movies, press, and very planned public crime fighting appearances, so their power levels seem inconsequential, but what mattered was the market they brought to the team. So when Ashley brought Blindspot, a differently abled supe, he would have fit in, had Homelander not wanted something different, and being insulted.
After the last season and Homelander almost being killed twice, I think he's going to want to be surrounded by people who are significantly more powerful than Starlight and the rest of the supes. He's going to fill The Seven with supes that matter less marketing wise, but fit a specific power need that he wants, so he can essentially lead a personal army.
I think he's going to make The Seven more closely aligned with a proper hero team, with training and the like, to really make up for last season's embarrassment to himself.
