10 Ways To Get The Fantastic 4 Into The MCU (That Wouldn't Suck)
3. Use The Baxter Building
Reed Richards’ headquarters in the Marvel universe is the Baxter Building, a 35-storey office block with the Fantastic Four occupying the top five floors. The building is both the team’s base and Richards’ lab. It even has its own rocket silo for when the FF have to get to space in a hurry.
The latest iteration has a gift shop and museum to satisfy curious New Yorkers and superhero fans, which would make for a pretty awesome movie scene.
Given how much punishment the Avengers Tower and Stark’s mansion take, top of the line lab facilities are becoming scarce in the MCU. When Tony Stark or Bruce Banner need a place to perform some plot-critical experiments, they’ll find it in the Baxter Building.
Reed might help them, or the Fantastic Four might be off in space or another dimension entirely having their own adventures. The Fantastic Four are planted in the MCU, the audience’s imagination is sparked about what Reed and the gang are up to, and a new branch of the MCU is born.
