This has fansover on Redditconfused and annoyed.

If you saw the last Doctor Strange film, that featured Scarlet Witch as antagonist, you’ll be aware that the post-credit scene specifically hinted an ‘incursion events’ along the multiverse.

Well, if the rumour above is to be believed, that storyline seems to have been shelved.

AlmightyLoaf54 is on thesame line of thinking, “So does this mean that what was teased in the post-credit scene will be explored in Doomsday?”

It’s an odd move given that Strange’s character is so tied to the multiverse as a concept and he would have been the perfect hero to bring the multiverse to an end.

Of course, he’ll likely have some say as he’ll appear inAvengers: DOOMSDAYandAvengers: Secret Wars, but this means his own film will likely tell a new story.

“They really f**ked Strange in his trilogy,” said Purple-Mix1033,who continues, “Almost 10 years and only 1.5 movies. MoM only counts as half of a Strange movie.”

The complaints and confusion keep coming.

It’s a puzzling choice on behalf of Marvel with many fans wondering if the company just wants to end this saga and sweep it under the rug due to the whole Kang/Majors controversy.

Plus, Marvel and Disney are likely very eager to usher in the X-Men after seeing how popularDeadpool & Wolverineturned out to be.
