Are you tired of "Marvel Humor" that consists of A-list celebrities playing characters they know nothing about while saying dialogue that falls flat and serves no narrative purpose?
Try reading comic book prose! With prose, a writer can provide exposition to the audience while making each character feel unique.
In the above page, even if the audience has no idea who Silver Samurai is, his background is helpfully explained at a pace that can be chosen by the reader instead of being exposited through unfunny quips.
Jane's reaction to this information being that she wants to smack him upside the head remains consistent with her prior characterization.
Comic books as a medium do this all the time. The best it's probably been done on film is Superman 2025, primarily because the cast and crew behind that film familiarized themselves with comic books starring the titular character like All-Star Superman (2005).
If you'd like to read the comic book shown here and more, it's The Mighty Thor: Lords of Midgard (2016), which I read on Internet Archive.
There are so many comic books that you can find on Internet Archive for free. If you want to get into a character you liked from Marvel Rivals or the mixed bag of Disney's MCU, their books are on there.
