Marvel’s Most Infamous Doctor Doom Variant Is Back (and He’s Not Alone)

In a turn of events, Doctor Doom, once crowned as the Sorcerer Supreme and now calling himself Emperor Doom, rules over the world. However, a band of heroes originating from different universes, including one variant of Doctor Doom himself, are challenging his rule. The current situation is portrayed in the comic series “One World Under Doom“. Yet, even the most distant realms of the multiverse disapprove of Doctor Doom’s actions. To put an end to his reign, a future version of Doctor Doom has reappeared with the intention of halting his present-day tyranny.

Marvel shared a sneak peek for “Doomed 2099” #1, penned by Frank Tieri, Delio Diaz, Frank Alpizar, Andrew Dalhouse, and Travis Lanham (letterer). This preview brings readers up to speed with the recent happenings in “One World Under Doom,” particularly focusing on how teams like the Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men, and S.H.I.E.L.D have united against Doctor Doom. Following a near defeat by Dormammu in issue #5 of “One World Under Doom,” Doom decides to take preventive measures to avoid such occurrences in the future. As a Doombot is assessing the threat levels of potential adversaries, suddenly, Doom 2099 emerges out of thin air.

Doom 2099 Assembles Marvel’s 2099 Heroes to Stop Emperor Doom

In simpler terms, Doom 2099 boldly storms into Emperor Doom’s castle. He poses a question about whether Victor Von Doom considers himself among the most significant dangers. Emperor Doom queries who dares to interrupt him, and in response, Doom 2099 along with Spider-Man, Punisher, Hulk, Ghost Rider, and an X-Man from the future emerge. They have journeyed through time to prevent Doctor Doom from devastating their future.





As a dedicated comics enthusiast, I found myself captivated by the riveting debut of Doom 2099, a captivating narrative penned by the brilliant minds of John Francis Moore and Pat Broderick. First glimpsed in Marvel Comics Presents #118 before gracing the cover of his own solo series, this intriguing tale sets an eerie stage for the reemergence of none other than Victor Von Doom – after a century-long absence from Latveria.

The story unfolds with a riveting question at its core: Is this truly the legendary Doctor Doom we’ve come to know and fear? This latest incarnation of Von Doom is noticeably younger, and his visage remains undamaged – unlike the face-masked, scarred villain we’re accustomed to.

The suspense mounts as readers ponder whether this is merely a doppelganger or an alternate version of the infamous Doctor Doom. But fear not, my fellow fans! The truth eventually reveals itself: Doom 2099 is indeed a fascinating alternate universe take on our beloved mad scientist.

In short, if you’re in the market for a mind-bending, suspenseful tale that challenges your preconceived notions of one of comics’ greatest villains, look no further than Doom 2099 – an adventure well worth diving into.

When Tieri revealed the news about “Doomed 2099,” he mentioned that, due to his reputation as a ‘villains guy,’ working on this project featuring not just one but two of the most iconic bad guys was irresistible. He added that this single issue wouldn’t only double the Doom, but would also introduce friends from the future to balance things out. The question remains, is Doom 2099 aiming for the title of Sorcerer Supreme, or does his objective hide a darker purpose? Fans might be taken aback by the response.

In simpler terms, the comic book “Doomed 2099 #1” presents a perspective that the future is bleak, with the world being ruled by doom and gloom. However, a group from this supposedly dismal future, consisting of Old Man Logan, Rachel Summers Phoenix, Bishop, Cosmic Ghost Rider, The Maestro, and Deathlok, disagrees. They believe they can alter this dire fate. Yet, the question remains whether Doom 2099, a new Sorcerer Supreme, will support his past self or aim to eradicate him permanently.
