What is it about MCU fans and their obsession with Mephisto? Rumblings about the all-powerful demon appearing (with Sacha Baron Cohen's name attached at one point) began around the time that 2021's Paul Bettany and Elizabeth Olsen-starring WandaVision first hit Disney+ screens – with expectations building with each passing episode Except – it didn't happen[...]

It must be hard being a Marvel Cinematic Universe watcher, you wait ages for Mephisto to appear and then time after time after time, there's no sign of the fellow Not in Shang-Chi, not in Wandavision, not in Loki and it's not looking good for No Way Home either But in the Marvel Comics series,[...]
