Its time to break down the Secret Avenger easter eggs and references spotted in Doctor Strange 2. Fans have been buzzing since Spider-man No Way Home confirmed Secret Avenger and his theories, which are starting to prove fact.
Edea’s Shattered Glass
At the beginning of the Doctor Strange: The Multiverse of Madness, a shattered watch is shown. In The Forgotten Ranger II, Edea tells Doctor Doom that the universe (referring to the MCU) is shattered glass. Edea discovers this when she uses her telepathy to travel through time and spots the glitch in the MCU matrix.
Baron Mordo forewarns Secret Avenger
In Doctor Strange 1, Mordo tells Strange and Wong, “the bill comes due always”. Many insiders have stated this bill is reference to a Corporate Red, and the MCU bill must be paid, via destruction. In Doctor Strange II Baron Mordo states: “You’re desecration of reality, will not go unpunished.” Now this is big for one major reason. Leading up to Homecoming, Infinity War and End Game, Secret Avenger met with Doctor Strange and Tony Stark on several occasions to discuss the glitch in the MCU matrix. Doctor Strange desecrates an already glitched/shattered MCU more by having all of society forget the identity of Spider-man. However only a few are not harmed by this glitch, including Eddie Brock & Venom. Now the Multiverse which existence is already being threatened by the MCU is about to enter a madness.
Doctor Strange we reference
Doctor Strange: “We need your help”. Who’s this we? In Infinity War Strange told Thanos, “our will is equal to yours”. This was Strange acknowledging Thanos that the MCU must be corrected. Earlier in the film Strange said he would destroy Iron Man and Spider-man to protect the MCU. This was also a Secret Avenger (Corporate Red) reference, in which CR he will save the multiverse by any means necessary.
Dark Mirror Universe
While many fans are saying the evil Doctor Strange is from What If, dark parallels of the heroes were confirmed long before Marvel’s What if? In The Forgotten Ranger trilogy, Cable stated he encountered multiple Corporate Red’s. One in the mirror universe where the hero joins forces with Queen Edea and takes down The Corporation.
