Where the guide talks about them (3)
THE BLIP AND THE RETURN — Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2025)
Strange takes America to Earth-838, where he meets the Illuminati: Mordo, Peggy Carter as Captain Carter, Blackagar Boltagon (Black Bolt), Maria Rambeau as Captain Marvel, Reed Richards (John Krasinski), and Professor Charles Xavier — Patrick Stewart, in the animated-series wheelchair. Wanda kills all of them.
THE ROAD TO DOOM — The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025)
Set in a separate universe with a retro-futurist 1960s aesthetic, not on Earth-616. Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm have been public heroes for four years following a cosmic-radiation accident.
