WARNING: The following contains spoilers for VisionQuest

With VisionQuest being the final MCU project to release before Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters, it’s only fitting that the new Disney+ series concludes with a tease of what’s to come on December 18.

The post-credits scene takes viewers back to the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Wanda Maximoff brings Mount Wundagore down on herself after destroying the Darkhold across the multiverse. For all intents and purposes, this scene marked the death of Wanda. However, VisionQuest reveals a different fate.

After the recap of the scene from Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness wraps up, Wanda is buried beneath the rubble of Mount Wundagore. Suddenly, a hooded silhouette arrives and lifts the rubble off of her. Although his face is masked by shadows, the man who finds Wanda is none other than Doctor Doom.

Doctor Doom tells Wanda, “Scarlet Witch, awaken. Your power will be mine,” after which Wanda’s eyes open wide and glow green.

So what does this all mean for Avengers: Doomsday?

For quite some time, there have been theories that Doom is so powerful in Doomsday because he has stolen the powers of other superpowered individuals. The post-credits scene of Spider-Man: Brand New Day confirmed that Doom collected Bruce Banner / The Hulk, presumably to adopt his powers. Meanwhile, the post-credits scene of VisionQuest confirms even more concretely that Doom is targeting extraordinarily powerful individuals to steal their powers and/or make them his servant.

As Wanda Maxmioff is one of the most powerful characters across the MCU, the fact that Doom has subsumed her powers automatically renders him equally, if not more, powerful than Scarlet Witch.

Heading into Doomsday, it will be interesting to see how Wanda is utilized, especially as recent comments from Anthony Mackie confirmed that Paul Bettany reprises his role as Vision in the movie. And, with Billy and Tommy Maxmioff now reuniting with their father Vision, Doomsday may be setting up a fascinating familial clash.

All eight episodes of VisionQuest are now streaming on Disney+. Avengers: Doomsday is in theaters December 18, 2026.
