NOTE: This story incorporates spoilers for Physician Unusual within the Multiverse of Insanity.
As a lifelong Marvel Comics reader, I usually get an enormous kick out of the post-credits sequences within the Marvel Cinematic Universe motion pictures. Marvel does a improbable job of teasing new characters and storylines, giving followers simply sufficient info to get excited and debate what may be coming subsequent to the flicks and TV. Thanos' reveal in The Avengers made my theater erupt with comedian followers gasping over the potential of an Infinity Gauntlet story, and non-comic followers saying, "Who was that purple man?"
Because the film is over at this level, persons are freely chatting in regards to the tease of word because the credit roll, and I've had many conversations with strangers to fill them in on who a personality could also be or why a selected merchandise could also be of significance. It is an unexpectedly enjoyable a part of the Marvel film expertise.
The identical factor occurred after Physician Unusual and the Multiverse of Insanity' mid-credits sequence aired in my theater. I heard a bunch of individuals ask their buddies and other people close to them who Charlize Theron's character was. I too was a bit baffled. I had my suspicions, however Theron's go well with did not lineup with the imaginative and prescient I had in my head. I believed she could also be Clea or maybe a distinct cosmic character that will tie into the subsequent Guardians of the Galaxy or Captain Marvel film. It seems she's enjoying Clea. You might not know her now, however she's going to change into a family title if she ultimately takes over because the Sorcerer Supreme. Do not act shocked. You already know Physician Unusual might be going to die. Like actually die. The Earth-616 model.
As a lot as we love the heroes within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, all of them would seem to have brief expiration dates. Iron Man is gone. Black Widow is gone. Captain America is gone. And I hate to say it, however it will not be lengthy earlier than Thor, Hulk, Physician Unusual, and a lot of the characters from the primary 20 motion pictures are gone too.
These beloved heroes do not age (a lot) within the comics and might all the time revert again to their younger, unique varieties due to story developments. That is not the case with the MCU, and that is additionally what makes it form of cool. We have now precise progress within the superhero world, whereas the comics usually undo it to determine new entry factors for readers.
So, sure, Clea will doubtless change into the brand new "Unusual." She at present holds this rank within the comedian ebook world inside a brand new series merely titled Unusual. It is off to a improbable begin and is the results of the equally as wonderful The Dying of Physician Unusual story, the place he truly died. He'll doubtless be resurrected inside a yr or two, however for now, we get to see what Clea can do with these powers. I strongly urge you to expire to your comedian ebook store to select up this series' first two points (the one two which are out as of this writing) to get acquainted together with her.
So who's she? That is the place issues get sophisticated. Clea is an extra-dimensional vitality being and part of the Faltine race. She has robust household ties to the Darkish Dimension, and is the daughter of Umar (which makes her Dormammu's niece). She will be able to tackle a humanoid type, however may also appear like a fireplace being. See under:
Clea is a talented magic consumer who can bounce between dimensions. She is believed to be near immortal and in addition has enhanced power. When in human type, she ultimately research underneath Steven, falls in love with him, they wed, after which he dies...horribly. And that is the place we're at now. She's questing to convey him again, however is not having a lot luck but.
Clea made her first comedian ebook look in 1964 inside Marvel's Unusual Tales #126. Created by Stan lee and Steve Ditko, she's been out and in of comedian books for many years, however simply now appears to be taking maintain as a central determine inside Marvel's most important continuity.
If I needed to guess, she's going to change into the brand new Sorcerer Supreme within the MCU throughout the subsequent 4 to 5 years. I believe we'll see their relationship develop within the subsequent Physician Unusual movie, after which he'll doubtless die within the subsequent movie, which is able to give her the title and energy. There's an opportunity they're going to each stick round for some time – which might be superior – however as I identified, the heroes we love do not stick round lengthy. Brining in an excellent actor like Theron to tackle this function, tells me Marvel has massive plans for Clea.
Multiverse of Insanity' mid-credit scene is a bit goofy in its setup, as Physician Unusual does not suppose twice about diving into one other dimension, however what it establishes is gargantuan for comedian followers, as one other nice character is now part of the MCU.
