WithScarlet Witch dead , presumably , and every Darkhold in the multiverse destroy , it would seem that the stability of the multiverse is secure , at least until Kang ’s plans begin to number to realisation . However , Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness ' Reed Richards cameo teased that Franklin Richards , boy of Reed Richards and Sue Storm , exists on Earth-838 . Considering that mutants also live on Earth-838 , as proven byDoctor Strange 2 ’s Professor X appearance , this Franklin could be a sport just like in the comic . If Earth-838 Franklin is preposterously knock-down as his risible book counterpart , then the multiverse could be in risk now that an all - powerful child who can produce and destroy universes at will is about to learn that his father was killed by a witch from another realness .

Scarlet Witch has caused that world great legal injury by pour down its most important heroes , which could have some consequences . One of those aftermath is how the other members of the Fantastic Four family unit , include Franklin Richards , will deal with Reed being murdered by an entity from another universe .

Doctor Strange 2 ’s first post - credits scenestrongly hints at incursions being the next most important plot line in the MCU , which make a potential Franklin Richards ' involvement even more dangerous . Unlike MCU ’s Scarlet Witch and Earth-838 Doctor Strange , comic book Franklin does not demand the aid of the Darkhold to influence other universes . MCU ’s Earth-616 Fantastic Four has yet to debut , but at least a variant of Franklin Richards in the multiverse is now right localise up thanks toDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness .
