The United States Department of Damage Control (DODC) first appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Initially, its job was to clean up the messes left behind after battles involving people with superpowers, starting with the 2012 Battle of New York.

We’ve seen this shift in Spider-Man: No Way Home, Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and the upcoming Wonder Man series, which will be available on Disney+ starting January 27th. According to reports from The Cosmic Circus, Tramell Tillman is playing the new director of the DODC.
