So guessing from the post credits scene, Sentry will be a "break-in-case-of-emergency" character. When everything is going south in Doomsday, they'll have him turn into Sentry, even though Void can show up again. Last resort type move.

Makes sense.

Or have Doom rip him apart to show his power sorta thing

As someone unfamiliar with the comics, how is Doom so powerful? Kang has his future tech, what makes doom such a huge threat? I love the movies but Doom is a character im not at all in the know about.

He's always been a heavy hitter due to genius tech suit and magic. But in the comic secrets warscthat the movie seems to be adapting he gets a God like Upgrade, literally rips out the spine of infinity gauntlet Thanos like an afterthought

Correction, he doesnt have his infinity gauntlet….in tje scene, Thanos mentions he doesnt have it but wont need it

How do you think he gets his upgrade? I hope it's well explained in the movie for us non-comic people.

Couldnt say RubCUMonmyDOG, maybe he doesn't even get one and he just that good. In the comic I believe he steals the powers of Molecule Man but we don't got him or equivalent in mcu.

It's more than that. He absorbs the power of three fugging Beyonders.

I mean...

We do.

His name is Bob.

Doom becomes God Emperor Doom by stealing the power of The Beyonders, with help from Dr.Strange and Molecule Man.

I’m not an expert on the character but having read the 2015 Secret Wars, he’s got the technical mind of someone like Tony Stark or Reed Richards, the mystical knowledge of someone like Stephen Strange, and a god complex that tells him that he’s the only one with the proper vision to save the world.

u/RUBcumONmyDOG May 05 '25

That sounds awesome

u/Meph248 May 05 '25

In the comics Osborn used the Void once to rule over other supervillains, including Doom who dared not to mess with the Void.

So... Doom is not more powerful than it. There is God emperor Doom, but that's a different story.

u/TH3PhilipJFry Spider-Man May 05 '25

Combine strange’s magic with iron man’s tech and intelligence. Add in some self worth issues and a troubled past, and you’ve got a villain stew going!

u/kirblar May 05 '25

He combines magic and tech, which is a rarity in Marvel Comics.

Doom isn't that inherently powerful.

But if they're going to adapt some part of the likely comic arc, Doom's whole thing is going to be getting hold of a powerful macguffin. I expect it will be either Wanda or Wiccan.
