[spoiler?] how did such powerful beings catch the virus - marvel zombies

From what I understand, the Hunger Virus is only spread through direct contact, right? So how were Namor, Wanda, Thanos, Carol, and Abomination infected? Considering that Captain Marvel could just idk stay in the air, or better yet SPACE, or just spam energy blasts every 2 seconds, while Wanda can use telekinesis to move zombies out of the way, Namor can fly and swim insanely fast, and none of the Talokan people would go to the surface world without him knowing, or get bitten, since they’re all tough warriors. Abomination has skin that bullets cant penetrate, so whose teeth did?

They were unvaccinated

Let marvel zombies be a lesson to the antivax crowd. If carol danvers can catch a virus then your overweight 50 year old ass certainly can too

Asgard encourages its citizens to do their own research.

Franken_Frank2025-10-14 19:09

There are many ways to theorize it but since magic exists, blame it

TargaryenKnight2025-10-14 19:12

Well seeing as how the avengers were the originals to start spreading the zombie virus and they keep their powers I’d say it’s entirely possible by them alone

EstablishmentAny69722025-10-14 20:51

thats fair, but i dont see the OG 6 or honestly any other-earth beings even touching carol
dr strange, wong and iron man were flopping hard against non-supe individuals which means theyre out of the equation, couldnt control their abilities
cap survived by some miracle but theres no way he infected carol if he was killed by Alexei

all the infecteds shown so far wouldnt even be able to get near carol, maybe s2 will clear this up

TargaryenKnight2025-10-14 21:24

I think Wanda is the he key here, she did end up infecting Thor. But then how was Wanda infected?

I saw a comic strip of human zombie Bruce bannner infecting bob, so that’s how they got sentry. They will most likely use that as the reason the powerful ones got infected

pokemonke2025-10-14 22:40

Wanda could have tricked others like she did Kamala. Easy to get to Carol if Carol doesn’t see her as a threat.

N8CCRG2025-10-14 22:06

The thing with Carol is she's isn't always invulnerable. That power she has to "turn on" sort of like Human Torch. Baseline she's Kree Starforce, which is their version of a super soldier, so if she doesn't know the bite is coming (like if it's from a tiny Hank Pym or something) then she's the same as Steve Rogers who we saw was able to get bitten.

E4EHL2025-10-15 19:17

if carol only came to earth because fury alerted her i dont think she would get caught off guard, especially when she sees empty destroyed cities

TheLightsChosen2025-10-14 19:13

Definitely one of the lowest points in the show, we should have at least seen how Carol got infected. It would’ve easily answered this question for everyone else too.

No_Imagination_24902025-10-14 19:14

Because it's a ✨Quantum ✨ virus. (Do you guys just put the word 'quantum' in front of everthing?) Which in the MCU basically means it's magic.

pennygirl1082025-10-14 19:14

Hank as an antman got captain America. He could have got a few of the others too as they wouldn’t have even see him coming.

repalec2025-10-14 19:18

Honestly the fact the first two to catch the virus were Hank and Janet can be your reason why for a lot of the major infectees.

You might not be able to break Abomination's skin with bullets, but a zombified Ant-Man or Wasp could certainly shrink down and feast on an area that isn't so protected. Who needs to bite through the skull when you can shrink into their ear canal and punch through into the brain itself?

-TrevorStMcGoodbody2025-10-14 19:15

One of them made a mistake, simple as that. Pretty believable too if you just remember they are heroes trying to save the world, one of the strong but not invulnerable ones probably got distracted trying to save somebody and got bit, then bit the other strong ones. So like exactly what happened to Thor

BlueCollarElectro2025-10-14 19:22

To be fair - a virus took down a hero in Wakanda Forever..............

Argylesox952025-10-14 19:22

TLDR: The zombies are way more powerful than normal zombies, this outbreak caught everyone off guard, and the mcu heros at the time are not as strong or as smart as you think.

Namor and his people could have spread because sea creatures got infected. as long as one of his people got infected (maybe they ate a bad fish), that could do it if they were caught off guard. we saw that eating infected flesh works too.

Wanda can be easily overwhelmed if there are enough people, and this is infinity war Wanda so not the most powerful form.

thanos would have been caught off guard cause it appeared as infinity war was happening.

Carol is strong, but she is often a victim of charging head first without a plan assuming she can just beat whatever. i could see another flying zombie hero getting to her or her trying to save someone and getting bit as a result.

Hulk can bite into abomination, a strong enough bite could hurt abomination.

E4EHL2025-10-14 21:07

hulk wasnt infected but i understand your other points

Smurfkilluh2025-10-14 19:37

A wizard did it

Left_Maize8162025-10-14 19:53

Marvel animated is a quantum virus. Who knows how that shit even works

EEDDDWWWAARRRD2025-10-14 19:55

Thanos went to the one place on earth with weapons most likely to pierce his skin.

Purely speculation here but I think Wanda had to be involved in Captain Marvel. Maybe she tried Cap before moving on to Kamala as a potential battery for the Infinity Energy, but once zombified there was no controlling Carol

Abomination and Namor may have been infected through the mouth. Biting zombies or guts through the water idk

Wolventec2025-10-14 20:12

I assume wanda may have done her zombie food trick a few times before she did it to new asgard

Left4DayZGone2025-10-14 20:38

That makes me think of a cool story idea… what if Superman, but a virus turns 90% of the Earth’s population into zombies… but Superman can’t turn, and can’t die. Now he has to seek out the remaining survivors.

EstablishmentAny69722025-10-14 20:46

quantum virus, prolly spreads through quantum air and quantum planes or something idk

seaman1872025-10-14 21:09

In addition to other points, we see that you can contract the virus without being bitten. The Asgardians are infected by consuming infected flesh.

nyehu092025-10-14 21:24

All it takes is one tiny mistake or oversight and you’re done.

Case in point: The way Hope got infected.

jrodfantastic2025-10-14 21:29

Not zombie related, but have you… a human… ever been bitten by a mosquito or bug?
