距离《Avengers 4》的预定上映日期尚有半年多，虽然到现时为止尚未有任何官方细节揭露，但网络上却一直有透过不同渠道的猜测出现，继早前《Avengers 4》的前奏曲漫画之外，此番另一本《Avengers: Infinity War》电影外传故事书就揭示了再有两位角色并没有「化灰」。早前，《Avengers: Infinity War: The Cosmic Quest, Volume 2: Aftermath》的作者 Brandon T. Snider 就在其个人 Twitter 上分享了其最新著作的封面及封底，位于封底的介绍就揭露了相关情报：
A deadly threat emerged from the cosmos — and it was fulfilled. In the wake of Thanos’ horrifying success, the people of Earth are left reeling in despair and confusion. Without any logical explanation for the blip-out event, those remaining must pick up the pieces.
Doctor Erik Selvig and his associate Darcy Lewis are determined to find and understand the cause of the devastation. With a team of friends both old and new, they embark on a pursuit of knowledge, eager to discover the links between their own pasts and the stones that decimated half of humanity — the Infinity Stones. Little do they know that a new foe who threatens to destroy them all is looming….
故事背景将定在 Thanos 成功把全宇宙一半生命「化灰」后，剩下的一半生命均陷入了绝望和困惑当中，而在《Thor》电影率先出现的 Erik Selvig 及助手 Darcy Lewis 就决心找出事情的真相。意味著这两位角色逃过了「化灰」的厄运，而且还有机会成为《Avengers 4》击败 Thanos 故事的关键。
