Spoiler warning.

Why did Dr. Doom appear in front of Franklin Richards in the Fantastic 4 first step mid-credit scene?

Well, I have two promising theories that might explain everything. Theory one, Doom needs Franklin Richards power. If you were paying close attention during the film's early scenes, you might have noticed something strange. Leverian leader seat is empty because Victor von Doom is the leader of Leveria and he is missing from the world stage. It could be because of a past conflict with Mr. Fantastic. Maybe Reed banished him, betrayed him, or stopped one of his experiments. Now Doom's been waiting, watching, and in the mid-credit scene, he finally makes his move. But why now? Because Doom needs Franklin Richard's cosmic power. We already know Reed Richards will lead the Avengers in Avengers Doomsday. So Doom's return is not just about power. It's also about revenge. And here's where it gets even deeper. In leaked concept art, we've seen Sue Storm and Franklin standing beside God Emperor Doom. It suggests Doom may eventually manipulate both Sue and Franklin, turning them against Reed Richards and using their powers to create a battle world, a twisted new universe shaped in Doom's image. That's why he's here. He's setting the pieces for the coming war. Theory two. Doom wants Reed's tech. Let's not forget Reed Richards has invented powerful teleportation technology called the bridge. This device can travel across the multiverse, accessing any timeline, any reality. And Dr. Doom wants it. But Reed would never help Doom willingly. So Doom does what Doom always does. He plays dirty. He takes Franklin. Doom knows how much the Fantastic 4 love Franklin. They risked everything to protect him from Galactus. So if Doom threatens Franklin, Reed will have no choice. He'll build whatever Doom wants. A ship, a portal, a weapon, anything to save his son. So whether it's Franklin's cosmic power or Reed's multiverse tech, one thing is clear. Dr. Doom is ready to reshape everything.
