Doctor Doom's Rumored Sinister Interest in Franklin Richards Might Shape the Future of The MCU — GeekTyrant

There's a new rumor floating through the Marvel multiverse that could reframe how The Fantastic Four: First Steps connects to Avengers: Doomsday , andit involves Doctor Doom, Franklin Richards, and some very ominous plans. According to insider @MyTimeToShineH, 'Doom will take Franklin Richards and will use him for his plans.' That's a major claim, and if it holds water, it not only positions Doom as a central threat but also ties Marvel's First Family directly to the multiversal chaos unfolding in the Avengers films. Now, let's talk about Franklin Richards. This isn't just some sidekick-level character. On the page, Franklin is the son of Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman, and he's considered one of the most powerful beings in the entire Marvel Universe. We're talking cosmic-level, possibly omniversal-level. Franklin has reality-warping powers so vast, and in the comics Roma, the guardian of all realities, once said he was equal to the Celestials. He can astral project without range limits, manipulate time, and create life from nothing. He's formed entire planets, resurrected the dead, and even created a pocket universe. Oh, and he can also throw The Thing across a room with a single thought using his bio-blast telekinesis. If Doctor Doom sets his sights on that kind of power, it makes sense why the Fantastic Four would pursue him, or maybe send Franklin away to Earth-616 to protect him, inadvertently luring Doom there in the process. The upcoming First Steps post-credits scene reportedly hints at this connection. We still don't know if Robert Downey Jr.'s Victor Von Doom is from the same universe as the new Fantastic Four. If he is, that sets the stage for an emotionally and dramatically tangled relationship. If he isn't, it might mean Doom is chasing Franklin across realities, which makes the threat even more intense. Franklin isn't just another super-powered kid. He's a walking, talking reset button for reality. That makes him both a target and a weapon, and if Doom gets control of him, Avengers: Doomsday might live up to its title in ways the multiverse isn't ready for. Whether this is Marvel's plan or just well-informed speculation, it's exactly the kind of connective tissue that could make the next chapter of the MCU feel less like a reboot and more like an epic culmination. Either way, it seems Franklin Richards could be the key to everything.
