A line tucked away in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Doctor Strange in the Multiv꧃erse of Madn𓃲ess has Marvel fans on high alert &nda🐼sh; because 🐼it could be setting up a major MCU crossover event.

Spoilers for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness follow. If you haven’t seen the movie, look away now!

Midway through the movie, Doctor Strange heads to Earth-838. There, he’s met by the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Illuminati, who fill him in on the fate of their Doctor Strange.

Long story short, it’s bad news: the 𒉰Sorcerer Supreme wenꦫt looking for a universe where he and Christine were happy, but ultimately caused an ‘Incursion’ – an event where two universes collide into each other, destroying both.

That Strange paid for his sins but, fast forward to the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Doctor Strange 2 post-credits scene, Charlize Theron’s Clea shows up and explains that Strange has caused his own Incursion with his actions and thaཧt he needs to sort out the mess.

Marvel fans reacted in turn, with , "They are 1000% leading up to a Secret Wars movie. They talked about Incursions and universes dying and shit that it's obvious that they're 🐎starting to lead up to a Secret Wars movie and I'm hyped!"

For the uninitiated, 2015’s Secret Wars was a Marvel comic book event written by Jonathan Hickman that saw two universes collide in a ‘Final Incursion.’ From the ruins, Doctor Doom created a 🦄world in his own image – bringing in a patchwork of characters and stories from other universes into one reality. Fantastic Four, X-Men, multiple Spider-Men, Thanos, Black Panther, the Infinity Gauntlet, and Doctor Strange were all involved in the crossover to end all crossovers.

Others ♛are also : "Now♓ the buildup towards Secret wars has officially begun," one wrote, but urged fans to remain patient. "It's like when Thanos was introduced in the MCU. Sure, he wasn't immediately the main villain, but we knew he was coming."

"It was praꦉctically spelled out at the end credits," . One , simply, "Secret Wars is comi♛ng!"

A Marvel fan was a little cooler on the tease, , "Secret Wars is a really cool event but um uh… it works best because of two LONG ass comic runs surrounding t♕he Avengers and F4, ♛how tf is the MCU gonna handle this?"

If all roads lead to Secret Wars, that’s a good problem for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Studios to have. Bring on God Emperor Doom?
