Porque não houve nenhum incidente grave após Capitão Marvel para Thor.
É por isso que Fury não sentiu a aceleração da Iniciativa Vingadores ou a fabricação de armas usando o Tesseract. No entanto, Fury nunca parou de procurar super-heróis para a Iniciativa Vingadores.
Na cena do crédito final de Homem de Ferro,
Tony Stark: Who the hell are you?
Nick Fury: Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. I'm here to talk to you about the Avenger Initiative.
Nem ele parou de fabricar armas usando o Teserract.
Bruce Banner: I’d like to know why SHIELD is using the Tesseract to build weapons of mass destruction.
Nick Fury: (pointing at Thor) Because of him.
Thor: Me?
Nick Fury: Last year Earth had a visitor from another planet who had a grudge match that leveled a small town. We learned that not only are we not alone, but we are hopelessly hilariously, out-gunned.
Thor: My people want nothing but peace with your planet.
Nick Fury: But you’re not the only people out there, are you? And, you’re not the only threat. The world’s filling up with people who can’t be matched, they can’t be controlled.
