The VisionQuest finale was massive as it planted seeds for future storylines. One of these future plotlines is the Young Avengers project, which has been rumored to be in development for a long time. The return of Joe Locke's Billy Maximoff in the finale solidified the speculation that Marvel might finally move forward with the Young Avengers project to the small screen, supposedly titled "Champions."

Moreover, the VisionQuest finale post-credit scene also sets up Wanda's role in Avengers: Doomsday, which is releasing in theaters this December. Thus, Elizabeth Olsen has finally returned to the MCU as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch for the first time since 2022's Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Billy Maximoff appeared in the VisionQuest finale twice. The first time we see him on the screen is early in the episode, when Tommy interacts with his twin brother psychically. The second time Billy returns in the finale is in the third act of the episode to revive Vision alongside Tommy. Thus, most of the family is back together by the end of the VisionQuest finale.

The only one missing is Wanda, who appears in the post-credit scene of the finale. The post-credit scene starts with Wanda's last scene in Multiverse of Madness. Mount Wundagore is collapsing on Wanda, and the screen goes black. But soon, we see a cloaked figure (Victor von Doom) levitating the debris and waking up Wanda and telling her that the Scarlet Witch's powers belong to him.

Marvel confirmed that Olsen is returning to the MCU with Avengers: Doomsday. Many fans believe that Wanda could be one of the three Latverian Witches on Doom's side in the movie. Given that Wanda expressed regrets at the end of Multiverse of Madness, she might be under Doom's mind control in the upcoming Avengers movie.

The reunion of Vision, Billy, and Tommy in the VisionQuest finale sets up a key plotline for the Maximoff family.


One of the key plotlines of the next two Avengers movies could be the reunion of the Maximoffs

The VisionQuest post-credit scene takes place during the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The solo Vision series takes place a few years after the second Doctor Strange movie. Wanda presumably has been serving Doom for all these years in the MCU continuity, and the heroes may finally learn that she did not die until Doomsday.

Thus, Avengers: Doomsday or Avengers: Secret Wars could follow the VisionQuest crew, including Tommy, Billy, and Vision, on a quest to find Wanda and bring her back to the good side. This storyline could adapt elements of the popular comic storyline, Avengers: The Children's Crusade.

The plot of the comic follows Billy trying to locate the missing Scarlet Witch, who he believes is his mother. But this quest is complicated, as Wiccan has to face his fellow Young Avengers teammates and other superhero teams like the Avengers and even the X-Men. The official synopsis of the comic reads:

"With his reality-altering powers spiraling out of his control, Young Avenger Wiccan sets out to find the one person who may be able to help him – the Scarlet Witch, the woman purported to be his mother. But as Billy Kaplan embarks on this quest, he finds himself pitted against the Avengers, X-Men…and even his teammates."

The MCU could adapt this storyline to include Vision in addition to other young superheroes like Kamala Khan, Kate Bishop, and Cassie Lang.
