At the moment, the first few words remain unknown. Will it simply state the film\u2019s release date? The July 25 date of the Comic-Con panel? Say \u201cComic-Con is Doomsday\u201d?<\/p>\n<p>For now, we just don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-150657\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/HNoptlebAAE1nPT.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1536\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-150656\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/HNoptlabMAArfox.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1536\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s not the only interesting clue we\u2019ve spotted today.<\/p>\n<p>Over at 230 Fifth Avenue (the former Heavenly Couture space that\u2019s hosted several Comic-Con activations over the years), work is well underway on what appears to be a secret offsite. Unlike most of the other builds happening around downtown, however, this one has been unusually secretive. Security has been stationed outside 24\/7, and blackout coverings have been used to shield the interior whenever crews aren\u2019t actively working, and it even has a code name \u201cMayo\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Adding another wrinkle to the mystery, we\u2019ve also noticed signs that iHeart Comix may be involved with the project. While that certainly doesn\u2019t confirm it\u2019s tied to Avengers: Doomsday, the timing, the secrecy, and the Gaslamp Arch installation all make for an intriguing combination.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Marvel Studios will have a presence at San Diego Comic-Con, with their Hall H panel on Saturday, July 25, surely being the first real look at the upcoming\u00a0Avengers: Doomsday film. However, some sort of offsite for the film would be the biggest thing in the Gaslamp.<\/p>\n<p>There are currently some fortress-like windows up, as well as the outline of a symbol and some fake \u201csnow\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/img_8319_720.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/img_8319_720.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/img_8320_720.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/img_8320_720.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here is also a closer look at the bases going onto the columns on the Gaslamp Arch:<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/img_8324-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/img_8324-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/HNn6jbkbMAAKqNY.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/HNn6jbkbMAAKqNY.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For now, though, that\u2019s all this is: speculation.
