On this week's episode of Millions of Screens, Ben, Libby, and Leo discuss how Marvel has eschewed the typical moniker of showrunner for its first three series in favor of head writer for Jac Schaeffer ("WandaVision"), Malcolm Spellman ("The Falcon and the Winter Soldier"), and Michael Waldron ("Loki").
