Celebrate the new Doctor Strange movie by getting upset at this MCU baseball team we compiled

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness opens during baseball season—the perfect excuse to put together a ballclub of Avengers.

The arrival of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in the middle of baseball season got us thinking…how would our band of MCU heroes put together a ballclub?

Would they go for a Moneyball style or spare no expense like the Yankees?

How long would it take for the team to start fighting among itself?

Would anyone even be willing to manage them?

We filled out our lineup cards as best we could and put together what we think would be the best use of our heroes talents on the diamond.

As a note/small spoiler: a character dying in the MCU did not preclude them from entry here. We’re trying to build the best team out of the heroes we have. That also means no Loki—who is a hero or villain depending on how he feels when he wakes up each day. Basically, Loki is a modern day Jonathan Papelbon, but I digress.

Let’s get to the roster.

Marvel released a new Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness trailer and it is wild

If you need me, I’ll be watching this repeatedly frame-by-frame.

All the attention is on Sunday’s Super Bowl between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals, but Marvel took over the internet for a minute before the game with a well-timed trailer release.

The second trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness dropped on Twitter Sunday evening, leaving everyone to pour over every detail of the two-minute and 17-second offering.

Sam Raimi — who is known (among other things) for his work on the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man trilogy — is at the helm for Doctor Strange’s second entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it looks like he’s bringing his signature horror vibes to the movie.

Check out the trailer:

HOLD ON, WAS THAT PROFESSOR X? The movie is set to release May 6 and is the first MCU movie to hit theaters since Spider-Man: No Way Home in December.

Three takeaways from the new Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness trailer

Let’s dig into the latest from Doctor Strange.

The Marvel train keeps moving, this time with the first official trailer for this spring’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Benedict Cumberbatch returns as the titular Doctor Strange after making an appearance in the red hot Spider-Man: No Way Home that hit theaters on December 17. This is the second Strange movie, and it will build on storylines from Doctor Strange, Infinity War, Endgame, the Disney+ series WandaVision, and more.

This trailer was included as a post-credit scene in No Way Home, and A LOT happens. Sam Raimi — who directed the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man trilogy and several horror flicks — is at the helm of Doctor Strange’s sophomore entry into the MCU, and his impact is felt throughout.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is set to release May 6, 2022.

Check out the trailer, and let’s talk about what to make of this.

The ‘Loki’ finale delivered an epic plot twist, and Marvel fans couldn’t stop cracking jokes about Dr. Strange

Doctor Strange, of all characters, was the butt of Marvel fans’ jokes after the Loki finale.

This article contains spoilers from episode six of season one of Loki on Disney+. If you don’t want to know the plot points from the first season, then you should get out of this article as soon as possible. Like… right now. Last chance!

Doctor Steven Strange has a big job ahead of him. Sylvie and, to a lesser degree, Loki have created a multiversal disaster. I won’t pretend to know the scale of what Loki and Sylvie did in the finale, with Sylvie stabbing He Who Remains. But on first blush, it looked bad — really, really bad. The sheer chaos in the timeline was a gorgeous on-screen shot but, of course, it was as troubling as it was beautiful.

Marvel introduced the multiverse in episode one of Loki. And the MCU hurtled itself headlong into that multiverse in the finale. It’s mind-boggling to consider what comes next. But it’s clear that the MCU will focus on the multiverse for multiple movies, likely including Spider Man: No Way Home, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

We know which character is going to take on the brunt of the cleanup for Syvlie’s mess. It has to be Dr. Strange. Poor Steven.

When Marvel fans finished episode six of Loki, they took to Twitter to make the same joke.
