Avengers vs X-Men in the MCU coming sooner.

The introduction and the small segment of the Illuminati in the Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness can be a set-up the Avengers vs X-Men in the MCU sooner. This event happened in the Marvel comics with the plot of having the Phoenix Force coming to Earth and looking for a mutant Hope Summers to become its host. To learn more about this comic event, check out one of the best storytellers in YouTube, Comics Explained.

So, how would this happen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe when the X-Men have not been introduced with the exception of Charles Xavier in the recent film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Also, even in that film, it was not even mentioned. Well hear me out.

With the destruction the 616 Scarlet Witch leaving 5 members of the Universe 838 Illuminati dead by using that universes Wanda’s body, this savagery is the catalyst of the feud of the Avengers and X-Men. But the iteration of this faction will feature two different universes faction battling each other. The X-Men in the 838 Universe will seek revenge against the 616 Avengers.

Blaming 838 Wanda

Someone needs to take the blame of Universe 838’s death of their prominent figures of different factions. The faction represented by Black Bolt, who probably would be the Inhumans - people who manifested their dormant powers with the exposure to the Terrigen Mist; the faction represented by the “Smartest Man Alive”, Reed Richards, who would probably is the Fantastic 4 of the Baxter Foundation; the 838 version Avengers that is represented by Captain Carter and Maria Rambeau, Captain Marvel; and the faction that is represented by Charles Xavier, which would be the beloved X-Men - people who have the “X-gene” mutation that gave them the classification of mutants. With all the possible witness, with the exception of 838 Christine Palmer, they would all turn to the cameras and will see Wanda Maximoff of the 838 Universe caused this carnage and will have all the blame pointed at her by all. Christine Palmer will probably the only one that could try to stop the blame at first but with the telepath other than Charles Xavier, they can probe the mind of Wanda and find out the truth. Some will not be able to take that as believable, but that telepath will protect Wanda along with the faction the telepath represent. That telepath that I am referring to is Jean Grey, the student and one of the mentors of the Xavier Institute and the X-Men. Being in the same gender and similar power set, there is a high possibility that 838 Wanda will be close to Jean Grey and worked together as an X-Men.

Read here about my reasoning about Jean Grey closeness to Wanda and why she is living a normal life when we were introduced to 838 Wanda in the film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.


838 Wanda is a Mutant and an X-Men

The 838 Universe that America Chavez and Doctor Strange visited in the film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, it appears as mutants are probably in the public knowledge with the presence of Charles Xavier. If not at least known to the superhero community. Everyone has their own gimmicks in the community and doing a classification on them will happen. The classification of mutant will be one of them and will be defined similar to the Marvel comics as somebody who have powers that was dormant and manifested in their early childhood or early teens. This type of phenomenon is identified as a person having the “X-gene”. This is all probable with the technological advantages and the way in the film they classify unique things. I mean they did number another universe. 838 Wanda have this “X-gene” and was approached by the X-Men to join the Xavier Institute thus becoming an X-Men.

Now how will this great battle occur?


Baron Mordo the Instigator

Having been embarrassed by 616 Doctor Strange and also having his Illuminati contemporaries killed, 838 Baron Mordo will instigate and declare war on the 616 Universe when the different factions meet together. The factions on the other hand would not prefer revenge and this also go with the 838 Avengers. Instead, this universe’s Avengers will blame the 838 Wanda for doing this as the evidence in the Baxter Foundation’s cameras that she was the one who were attacking. For the 838 Avengers, the reasoning of having another person from another universe controlling 838 Wanda is smoke and mirrors to hide the truth. I have a feeling that the Avengers and the X-Men do not go along well and have a bad history between them. The Avengers have knowledge of Charles Xavier’s powers and also other X-Men on psychic related attacks and probably thinks that 838 Wanda might be innocent, but another X-Men member were controlling her. Or possibly blaming the mutants of this universe. The X-Men defends 838 Wanda and are willing to prove it by looking for the so-called Scarlet Witch. And to do that, they are willing to go to the 616 Universe and find her along with America Chavez and Doctor Strange.

This will set-up the battle of the 616 Avengers against the 838 X-Men as the 838 X-Men will be looking for 616 Wanda Maximoff with none other than their iconic tracker the Wolverine that would lead to the Avengers compound as it is one of the places 616 Wanda stayed and will encounter the 616 Avengers. At this moment the Avengers compound will consist of Bruce Banner, Sam Wilson, and Bucky Barnes. There will also be a possibility that Scott Lang (Ant-Man) and Hope Van Dyne (Wasp) is in the compound after their adventures in the “Quantum Realm”. Hulk vs Wolverine. Captain America vs Cyclops. Gambit vs Winter Soldier. And the list goes on.


What you think about this possibility? Introducing another universe version of the X-Men in the MCU. Then set-up the MCU 616 version of them possibly at the end. This would also tie-up in the Multiverse problem of Incursions. And this event will cause more unstableness and are ready to be more and more dangerous.
