A flickering screen might be the biggest Spider-Man theory of the season. *Spoilers ahead for* Spider-Man: Brand New Day *and* Avengers: Endgame Encore.

### The Clue in Two Post-Credits Scenes

*Brand New Day*‘s post-credits scene used Ned Leeds’ Spidey Tracker app, zooming out from Earth to hint that Peter Parker is heading into space. Fans guessed the TVA had recruited him, or that he was headed for Battleworld.

The *Endgame Encore* stinger shows Bruce Banner in self-containment, explaining his gamma suppression serum. The screens flicker and the camera glitches, and Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom arrives to “collect” the Hulk.

Here’s the catch: the Spidey Tracker map also glitches and stutters multiple times as it scrolls through space. According to The Direct’s analysis, that similarity is likely no coincidence.

### Theory at a Glance

| Clue | Where It Appears | What It Suggests |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Glitching screens | *Endgame Encore* stinger | Doom’s magic interferes with tech |
| Stuttering map | *Brand New Day* post-credits | Same interference around Spidey |
| Joe Russo’s comment | Empire interview | Doom’s interest may go beyond Banner |
| Anchor being idea | *Deadpool & Wolverine* | Peter could be vital to Earth-616 |

### Why Would Doom Want Spider-Man?

- **Anchor being theory:** Many fans think Tom Holland’s Peter anchors Earth-616, which could make him valuable to Doom’s plans.
- **Battleworld spell:** Doom may need powerful multiversal beings to stitch reality back together.
- **Mind control:** He could turn collected heroes against their allies in the final battle.
- **Scheduling logic:** Holland isn’t expected in *Doomsday*, but he’s reportedly saved for *Secret Wars*, so removing Spidey from the board makes narrative sense.

### The Counterargument

The glitching could be coincidence or general multiversal interference. If so, the TVA remains a logical candidate to have recruited the web-slinger.

### FAQs

**Q1. What’s the Doctor Doom and Spider-Man theory?**  
Fans think the identical glitching in both post-credits scenes means Doom collected Spider-Man off-screen, just as he did with the Hulk.

**Q2. Is this confirmed?**  
No. Joe Russo only said Doom’s interest may extend beyond Banner. Everything else is speculation.
