The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s multiverse hangs by a thread, and Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom has chosen an unexpected savior: Franklin Richards. Leaked details from Avengers: Doomsday expose Doom’s urgent mission to harness the young mutant’s reality-altering powers against apocalyptic incursions. This revelation reframes the iconic villain as a complex antihero racing to prevent universal collapse.
Why Does Doctor Doom Target Franklin Richards in Avengers: Doomsday?
Despite Loki’s sacrifice to stabilize timelines in Loki Season 2, the multiverse faces imminent annihilation. According to a verified report by The Cosmic Circus (July 2024), “only a handful of viable Earths remain,” with one shown “completely decimated by incursion” to demonstrate the stakes. This catastrophic backdrop forces Doctor Doom into drastic action.
Downey’s Doom—introduced in Fantastic Four’s post-credits scene—views Franklin Richards as the solution. The Cosmic Circus confirms: “He sees the incursions as a danger to the Multiverse and wants to stop it using Franklin Richards.” Mirroring Thanos’ conviction in Infinity War, Doom operates as a self-styled hero willing to cross moral boundaries. His plan leverages Franklin’s comic-accurate ability to warp reality, positioning the child as a living weapon against dimensional collapse.
Notably, Doom will command his own faction against Sam Wilson’s Avengers, the X-Men, and Loki’s allies. This multi-team showdown escalates tension for 2027’s Avengers: Secret Wars, where alliances could shatter.
How Faithful Are the X-Men’s Designs in Avengers: Doomsday?
Marvel Studios is delivering long-awaited comic authenticity for mutant heroes. Per The Cosmic Circus, the X-Men’s costumes blend Astonishing X-Men aesthetics with X-Men ’97’s vibrant palette—a stark departure from earlier films’ black leather uniforms.
“The costume department is bringing it with these looks,” the report emphasizes, validating fan demands for accurate adaptations. This design shift coincides with rumors that Doom will manipulate mutants into clashing with the Avengers, potentially causing casualties ahead of Secret Wars. The tactical inclusion of multiple superhero teams—including the Fantastic Four and New Avengers—sets Doomsday up as the MCU’s most ambitious crossover.
The multiverse’s survival hinges on a villain’s gamble and a child’s power in Avengers: Doomsday. With Robert Downey Jr.’s Doom defying traditional heroism and the X-Men finally embracing their comic roots, Marvel transforms cosmic disaster into human drama.
