VisionQuest Post-Credits Scene Just Confirmed A Major Marvel Character Is Coming Back in Upcoming Avengers Films

Spoilers for VisionQuest and potentially Avengers: Doomsday are contained in the article below. You've been warned!

The finale of VisionQuest confirmed that one of the most beloved characters from the MCU will be returning in the upcoming Avengers films, seemingly under the control of Doctor Doom.

Following the conclusion of VisionQuest, Marvel snuck in a little teaser for Avengers: Doomsday and/or Secret Wars during the credits. The scene was excluded from advanced screeners provided to the press, so it came as a big surprise and shows that Marvel made a great deal of effort to keep this moment a secret.

The show cut back to the ending of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, where Wanda Maximoff, AKA Scarlet Witch, uses her powers to destroy the Darkhold and, in the process, sacrifices herself. Her fate has remained unknown for over four years now, but now, we finally know what's next for her.

Doctor Doom shows up and lifts a bunch of rubble off of her, uttering the words: "Scarlet Witch, awaken. Your power will be mine." Her eyes open in shock before the scene cuts to black. The plot of Avengers: Doomsday has remained relatively abstract for some time now. Universes are starting to catastrophically collide as part of a series of "incursions," but the why and how of it all has remained a secret. Doom's larger plan and motive have also been kept under wraps, but we've started to get a better idea over the last couple of months.

At the end of the recent Avengers: Endgame re-release, we see Doom abduct the Hulk following the events of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. We also saw him try to make contact with a young Franklin Richards at the end of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, though it's unclear if he succeeded in taking him. We have yet to see the powerful child in any of the promo for Doomsday, so it's not out of the question that he has been recruited into some kind of dark army being built by Doom.

It's unclear what other characters may be in Doom's legion, but it's obvious that he's building up an absurdly dangerous level of power that will give the Avengers a run for their money. Many have been wondering how Marvel would top Thanos... and Doctor Doom creating an evil anti-Avengers roster could certainly be the answer. We don't have too much longer to go before we get more answers, as Avengers: Doomsday finally releases next month.

It won't be the end of this story, though. Avengers: Secret Wars is currently slated to release next December, though filming reportedly hasn't even begun... so a delay to 2028 may not be out of the question. Regardless, you can seemingly expect Scarlett Witch to appear in at least one of these projects, if not both.
