Reports Reveal Beloved MCU Villain’s Return in ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’

by

As a seasoned gamer and long-time Marvel enthusiast who has lost countless hours (and sleep) to the intricate narratives of the MCU, I can confidently say that ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ is shaping up to be the epic finale we’ve all been eagerly anticipating since ‘Endgame.’ The prospect of Doctor Doom as the primary villain and a potential soft reboot of the MCU has me absolutely thrilled!

‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ is anticipated to be the most momentous Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) release since ‘Endgame.’ This upcoming film is expected to play a pivotal role as the conclusion of the Multiverse Saga, with whispers suggesting it will feature at least 50 characters. These characters will include both fresh faces making their live-action debut and well-known figures hailing from other Marvel franchises.

Today’s theories about potential characters in ‘Secret Wars’ hold more credibility compared to other rumors you might have encountered.

In simple terms, ‘Secret Wars’ comic series is set to feature Doctor Doom as the main antagonist and it seems to adhere to the original storyline of the same name. This could potentially lead to a softer restart for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). However, prior to this restart, rumors such as those from MyTimeToShineHello hint at Thanos making an encore appearance.

He will return, sooner than you think

While MyTimeToShineHello might not always be fully trustworthy, some past statements by Brolin seem to give credence to this speculation.

About a year back, Brolin hinted that there were whispers suggesting Thanos might reappear. But it’s worth mentioning that this possible comeback could be linked to the ‘What If…’ animated show.

It’s quite logical that Thanos appears, even if it’s a different version of him, given that Doom has utilized Thanos in comic books to highlight his own prowess. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), they might choose to eliminate Thanos early in the movie to emphasize the terror that Doom instills.

Following the “Time Runs Out” saga, an enormous infiltration took place that ultimately shattered our familiar universe. Doctor Doom then utilized the might of the Beyonders to construct a fresh reality utilizing the fragments of the obliterated ones; this new world he named Battleworld.

In his reign, he assumed the title of Divine Emperor Doom, accompanied by Sheriff Stephen Strange, who served as a trusted advisor, while the Foundation functioned as his right-hand organization.

As a devoted admirer, I’d express it like this: In the tranquil expanse that is Battleworld, there was always an unsettled feeling within me – a sense of unfulfilled potential. Yet, that ‘I’ was none other than Doom himself, who saw his very existence as the blemish in our perfect realm. But curiosity had its way, and revelations about our origins began to surface. This ignited a wave of uprisings among the inhabitants, challenging my rule. In response, I wielded power with brutal force, quelling dissent violently and swiftly.

An unexpected enemy arose in the form of Thanos, intent on toppling Doom. Confronted by this challenge, Doom proposed a deal: Thanos could keep his possessions and territories if he agreed to cease his assaults and abandon his ambition to unseat the God Emperor instead.

Thanos felt greatly offended by Doom’s suggestion, pointing out that he had been a deity once and possessed the Infinity Gauntlet, commanding its colossal might. He labeled Doom as an imposter god and a phony, giving him the option to submit himself to Thanos.

In simpler terms, Doom pointed out that Thanos no longer had the Gauntlet, and in a horrifying display of violence, he ripped Thanos’s bones out, resulting in Thanos becoming a grotesque, motionless mass.

It’s possible that Thanos might take a secondary role, but rather than being a central character, he could be used to set up Doctor Doom as the most formidable menace the Marvel Cinematic Universe has ever known!
