As people speculate the atrocities Dr. Doom will commit to our beloved heroes, the only question left is will our heroes succeed in defeating the Doctor.

From Deadpool looking at the audience and begging for help to Mr. Fantastic being forcibly spread across all continents, the imagination of Marvel fans has ran wild with what Dr. Doom will do to the heroes of Marvel.

As Avengers Doomsday is discussed as the next Major film since Endgame there’s no telling what Marvel intends to do in the movie.

After the Avengers failed in Infinity War, the option of failure lingers in everyone’s mind as an option for the comic book heroes and heroines.

In recent ensemble movies, heroes have struggled against their enemies. In Thunderbolts they “defeated” their big bad with friendship which inherently temporarily mitigated the threat.

Similarly in The Fantastic Four: First Steps, the team couldn’t defeat Galactus and decided to send him to the far ends of the universe without his ship instead.

While delaying the inevitable is the solution for recent ensemble movies, fans won’t accept that solution for a major movie like Avengers Doomsday.

I speculate that Avengers Doomsday will have a focus on a few characters who will have to grow to contend with the Doctor, they will have to sacrifice multiple teams to defeat him or they’ll simply lose and give us a two parter once more.

I doubt Marvel would have everyone lose and leave their entire hero empire on the table so I’m excited to see what they have in store for everyone on December 18th.
