The Fantastic Four won’t stand idly by as Doctor Doom seeks global dominion, given their longstanding feud and rivalry with this infamous Marvel villain. Known as Marvel’s First Family, Reed Richards and his team have always been ready to thwart Doom’s nefarious schemes. In the storyline “One World Under Doom,” where Doom aims to rule the world, we get a glimpse of how the Fantastic Four will retaliate.
In an exclusive preview, ComicBook offers a first glimpse at Fantastic Four issue #29 penned by Ryan North and illustrated by Cory Smith. This installment links up with the “One World Under Doom” storyline and introduces She-Hulk as a guest star. The opening page showcases Emperor Doom, standing stiffly with his arms crossed, against the backdrop of waving Latverian flags and towering cityscapes. Later, Ben Grimm and Sue Storm send the children off on a school trip, but her expression suggests discontent once they depart. It is then that Ben comes up with the idea to take Sue out on a city adventure, and who better to accompany them than Jennifer Walters, also known as She-Hulk.
The extraordinary has occurred! DOCTOR DOOM has seized control of the globe, according to the account in Fantastic Four #29. However, this situation is not acceptable to the Fantastic Four. As Reed immerses himself in his lab, working tirelessly to find a solution to the Doom dilemma, Ben takes Sue on a trip to New York City with their shared friend, JEN “SHE-HULK” WALTERS, as an attempt to distract her from the current state of affairs. Yet, the residual tension still lingers after the vampires’ Blood Hunt, and when Ben, Sue, and Jen find themselves in a sticky situation with mob justice, they must make a decision…and one they will not be able to undo!
In our chat with author Ryan North, we delved into the primary sequence of his work titled “One World Under Doom“. This series explores the schemes of Doctor Doom for the Marvel Universe. During our conversation, we focused on the intricacies of Doctor Doom and the Fantastic Four, and North shared several tantalizing hints.
When inquired about who will be the main focus in the comic “One World Under Doom“, North answered, “Wow, there are plenty. A hint for the upcoming issue: Doctor Doom is headed to Valeria Richards, his goddaughter, where he says, ‘Despite most people on Earth not caring, I do value your opinion. Let me explain and justify this to you.’
He commented, “The bond between Doom and Valeria is one of my favorite comic relationships. On the surface, it seems unlikely. Why would Doom accept the daughter of his sworn enemy as his goddaughter? Yet, it happens and it’s captivating. It’s filled with drama and grandeur, and it’s immensely satisfying to delve into this unique dynamic.
Later on, North discussed the experience of pitting these renowned characters against one another. He mused, “There’s a part of me that feels a significant event is necessary whenever Reed [Richards] and Doctor Doom are in the same space because they are such polar opposites, yet share so many similarities. However, neither will ever acknowledge it. It’s an intriguing dynamic, truly enjoyable.
Undoubtedly, the events unfolding in the ‘One World Under Doom’ scenario have a significant impact on the Marvel Universe for the subsequent ten months. This influence, naturally, reaches the storylines within the Fantastic Four comics. During this period where Doom holds power and the question of how to deal with it prevails, there are numerous standalone stories and single issues that are being published.
