Marvel Studios Reportedly Exploring Introduction of Multiversal Masters of Evil for ‘Avengers: Doomsday’

‘Avengers: Doomsday’ initially started as ‘Avengers: Kang Dynasty’ but due to legal issues that Jonathan Majors got himself into, the movie was largely reworked and now Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom is bound to be THE villain of the movie, replacing Kang.

We have no idea in what kind of direction Marvel Studios will take the plot of the movie, since Kang is no longer the focus previous rumors and speculations no longer apply.

One of the previous speculations regarding the movie’s villains is that Multiversal Masters of Evil will possibly appear. Multiversal Masters of Evil were created by Mephisto and Doom Supreme in order to face prehistoric Avengers. Their goal eventually grew into dominating hundreds of realities by changing the events of the past, saving Earth-616 for last.  The most notable members of the team were Berserkers, Black Skull, Dark Phoenix, Ghost Goblin, King Killmonger, and Kid Thanos.

The story of Multiversal Masters of Evil really begins with Doom Supreme, who achieved pretty much everything he could in his current timeline. He achieved the status of Sorcerer Supreme and Necromancer Supreme, dominating his reality in the most brutal ways imaginable. Until he got bored. However, the next frontier he could conquer presented itself soon after when Doom Supreme set out to travel to the past and kill the prehistoric Avengers. Still, the task proved to be more difficult than he anticipated, so he recruited various villainous variants from different timelines.

Doom Supreme time-traveled to 1,000,000 BC and met Mephisto, who proposed forming a team of supervillains since prehistoric Avengers proved to be much more difficult to defeat. The proposed team was the Multiversal Masters of Evil. The deal was to wreck prehistoric Avengers across the Multiverse, saving Earth-616 for last. Despite knowing the shady agenda, Doom Supreme was intrigued and agreed.

Doom embraced the idea and recruited a lineup of Multiversal scum, including Kid Thanos, Dark Phoenix with her Berserkers, King Killmonger, Ghost Goblin (Norman Osborn), and the Black Skull.

Now according to latest Alex Perez’s Discord AMA, the Masters of Evil might still appear in the movie, although this speculation depends on something he heard in the context of comics that served as the inspiration for a previous version of the movie:

Hifive326: Are we still going to get a Multiverse Masters of Evil for Avengers:Doomsday in addition to Doom?

Alex: I have no comment. When I mentioned them, it was because they were the main villains of a comic that I was told was part of the backbone they were incorporating for these movies, but I have no idea if they will be the main villains of Doomsday. But it would be a good idea if they were because they’d just be replacing the villains they were going to have in Kang Dynasty with Immortus, Rama-Tut and Centurion.

It makes perfect sense to include them since evil variants of various different villains and characters were always supposed to be the main focus of Multiversal Saga.
