The so-called superhero fatigue relates to the casual audience/consumer. It's happened in large part because Disney/Marvel pumped out a lot of mediocre movies and TV shows after Avengers: Endgame -- Bob Iger even admitted to this. Even still, Spider-Man: No Way Home and Deadpool and Wolverine were massive theatrical hits, which shows the public will still pay to watch superhero movies that give them what they want.
These cards aren't even popular with Marvel collectors, which means they basically have no end-consumer and long-term market. Just like Marvel with the MCU and Marvel comics, it's been quantity over quality from Topps Marvel cards -- collectors and investors value quality.
