The 2006 comic Civil War by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven featured hundreds of characters, a dead Spider-Man, and a Captain America who surrendered and was assassinated. When Marcus and McFeely sat down to write the script, they knew a literal adaptation was impossible. Watch how the action beats service the emotional beats

The script’s genius is the de-escalation of the villain. When Steve and Tony arrive in Siberia, Zemo has killed the other Winter Soldiers. He doesn’t want an army; he wants a video tape. Too late

The script reintroduces humor and forgiveness without undoing the pain of the fight. It sets up Infinity War perfectly: the team is broken, but the phone is on the table.
