Todays Barside Buzz from a regular source says Eyes of Wakanda has time travel and RDJ’s Doctor Doom is from the same Universe as Fantastic Four. The information comes from Daniel RPK on his Patreon. RPK says that he’s heard upcoming animates series Eyes of Wakanda will feature time travel. Apparently a group of Wakandans will travel back in time to stop The Horde from destroying the World. He also comments that the show is set in the Sacred Timeline, i.e. 616.
We had already heard rumors The Horde would be first introduced within this show. Other rumored storylines are said to be the Trojan war, and one that involves Iron Fist. That leaves a fourth episode that we know nothing about yet.
Our second piece of Buzz from RPK is a claim that RDJ’s Doctor Doom will be shown to be from the same Universe as the Fantastic Four. We already know The Fantastic Four: First Steps has the team living in an alternate New York from the 1960’s. There has also been some hints around that Doom may be from that same place. Obviously, whilst this hardly confirms it, it’s a good source. Therefore, it’s worth taking note of this rumor for now.

My feelings are that most fans seem to think this makes sense. However, Marvel also needs to be aware that a lot of fans like it for other reasons. Namely that this could mean the 616 Doctor Doom is a brand new character and played by a different actor. Therefore, the choice of RDJ in this role, well, hasn’t really been as popular as I reckon Marvel expected.
