Forever my favorite character 😂 anybody can step up to bat and Doom will swing and do it in a smooth way. God-King Doom is by far the coolest looking character design imo.
I don't know that Doom is ultimately bad. He has his own morality and code of honor. And gods themselves acknowledge that Doom should rule the Earth for the greater good...
@@saadamehdi2848 Well, Marvel mostly has him be the "bad guy". Also he does the bad things for what only he thinks is good, whereas an anti-hero does the bad things for what everyone can agree on as being good.
Doom was either a comically written Villian, or an anti-villian back in the day. Now in recent decades, doom is either a schemer, but a true bad guy acting as a good guy, or hes an anti-hero in the most loose of senses. Unless you invoke anything involving Latveria. Then doom genuinely is a good guy in the context of Latveria, but everyone else? Nah. Hes still a bad guy unless there is something to gain. And marvel is pretty tongue in cheek about that now
I'd settle for an animated one. Dr Doom is the modern intriguing character from HBO shows before it was a thing. Super interesting and insufferable lol
I've just finished reading this story a day or two ago. It's an amazing read! Well written with impeccably drawn fight scenes. This story needs to be adapted somehow to the MCU.
This is hands down my favorite comic story ever and I'm so glad youre breaking it down because I feel its always overlooked when peeple talk about great comic book narratives. Especially with Doom being in the spotlight so much rn (fortnite and the mcu) its a fantastic story for people who want a look into Doom as a character. Plus Doc Strange crossovers are always fun lol
That bit you did about Doom and compared him to Black Panther and Namor reminded me of a quote from Maximus: "You're used to dealing with heroes... But what you don't have much experience with is kings. And that's your problem here. You can't think of them as normal men. You can't even think of them as behaving human--that's thinking too small... They are larger than that, bigger than that... They exist above other men because they were born that way. Authority began at the cradle, you see. Their very idea of morality is different than what you are used to. The people--their people--expect them to do violence to ensure a certain amount of peace and prosperity. And like gods, they are also expected to commit murder... So the people can sleep at night knowing they are protected. "
I can genuinely hear the pain in your voice. Sorry if that sounds rude or anything. My best friend had his life taken in a horrible, sudden drunk driving accident and I guess I judt recognize that voice. The before and after... i am....i was... the exact same way.. Its like a part of you dies with them. People say the same ol quotes and sure time does make it a bit easier but man. I hate that this life is so limited. There is just so so much to explore. To learn. So much we could all be doing together but there is just so much pointless death and hopelessness everywhere. I see empaths just being beaten down into the dirt and it tears my heart out of my chest. I genuinely care about others being in pain and maybe that makes me a fool but id rather live in a world that give hugs instead of punches. Im so sorry you had to experience that pain and that you now carry this weight. I cant say it will get easier or go away... but i CAN say you will see him again and it will all even out eventually. Just the curse of mortality I suppose....or what we are led to believe anyway. Much love brother
I remember reading this comic when it came out. I'm 72 and I've been a fan pretty much all my life. I remember buying Fantastic Four 1 when it first came out - I was about 11 years old. I couldn't afford all the comics, but I used to read them at the drug store. I'd hide behind the rack and spend an hour reading the ones I couldn't buy. The druggist was pretty cool; he probably read them himself. Anyway, this was an epic story and you do an excellent job recapitulating the storyline. Your enthusiasm is infectious. My memory isn't the best, but I seem to recall Mephisto's power vacillating at different periods in the Marvel multiverse. I seem to recall him losing to some other characters who weren't as powerful Doctors Strange and Doom, but perhaps that is only because he fought outside of his own realm.
mephisto: you can't "defeat" me with your stupid loopholes, I am the lord of loopholes! mephisto 7 loopholes later: GOD YOU GUYS ARE ANNOYING, JUST FUCKING GO ALREADY!!!
Dooms one and only interaction with his mother is her damning her own soul willingly to reject victors apparent treachery. He saved her soul but in his eyes he lost the love of his mother. 😢 *im crying*. I hope shes looking down from heaven and sees Victors deeds. That Doom would never be so cruel and evil. I hope Doom sees her scorn as a lesson to keep in his heart. I hate to see Doom go so far for dominance in other comics, but his mother i hope can be a pillar of his morality. I hope one day Doom and his mother can be reunited, and Victor be givin the reward he deserves, The love and admiration of his mother. 😢 This story is genuinely on of my favorites of all time. Up there with Thor and the priest. Amazing video. Thank you.
Rob all I can say is YES!!! I just recently bought a Used TPB as for a while was thinking about it for a while went to my local Comic shop and found that in the Doom Section snagged it and after all these years later it still slaps!
Vishanti not Multiverse powerful ... are YOU certain of this bub? They are able to dominate any of Dr Strange foes that are so called: "Elder gods" some who inhabit multiple universes with ONE consciousness & the Vishanti can destroy them!!! Peace & Love my Brother! P.S. You remember: "make mine Marvel?"

Usually a comic book reviewing TH-camr with more than a million subscribers that is verified or not won’t necessarily respond to requests & replies to comments.
Doom has always been with the Smoke for any villain or hero that’s in his path; and I respect it.
Facts he's an asshole but equal hands fair asshole
Forever my favorite character 😂 anybody can step up to bat and Doom will swing and do it in a smooth way. God-King Doom is by far the coolest looking character design imo.
If an anti-hero is someone who sometimes does bad things but is ultimately good, I think it's fair to call Dr. Doom an anti-villain.
I don't know that Doom is ultimately bad. He has his own morality and code of honor. And gods themselves acknowledge that Doom should rule the Earth for the greater good...

I think Doom quite nicely embodies "True neutral". He does anything necessary to achieve what he deems important, regardless of good or bad.
Doom ain’t ultimately evil tho and sometimes does bad, he usually does bad but usually never has a bad motive he a power freak

This is my favorite Dr Doom story. It's a masterpiece. A live adaptation of this story would be incredible.

Doom and Strange in a Comivs Explained vid? Say no more, I am in.
I love Comivs Explained.
Ong know this whole story but doesn’t matter robs the best ❤
Just a few adjective named characters short of a full band.
Comvis is rob tapping into his x gene
Arguably Roger Sterns best work, he saved Dr.Doom as character with this story

This is the exact moment Dr. Doom becomes Doom Slayer.
That’s _Doctor_ Muthafuckin’ Doom Slayer! 😆

You kinda left out that Strange was required to help Doom as part of his victory conditions for winning the wizards contest.
This may be one if not the best DrStrange book of all time

😢 what an amazing story between these 2. Thank you Rob
It was fun to see Stephen strange hold Dormammu captive!!
Great timing. Just got started doing work and needed something awesome to listen to
Always love some Doctor Strange content. Hope you cover more of him and his adventures!
Venturing into Mephisto's realm is basically like playing an action-roguelike with some CRPG elements.
“Aged Genghis” sounds like an expensive Mongolian beef steak
The more I learn about Dr doom the more I love the character, he’s just THAT guy fr lmao
The way you tell stories is unmatched!

I’ve been saying for years that this NEEDS to be a movie. There is so much greatness in this short book.

Dr Strange did a John Constantine 😂 Brilliant.....
YOOO TRIUMPH AND TORMENT. SOMEONE CALL SAL AND TIFF
Strange: i need to defeat this guy for the balance of humanity
Doom: he tried to scam me and i took that personally
What a ride of a story. Still an all-time fav ❤
I imagine Mephisto just like sitting down in his area with a Shark Tank type of setup so people just show up and he’s just listening to the pitch 😂
It was this story that made me truly love Dr. Doom. For even a man in armor still has a soul.
Been waiting for this comic covered for years. Tyvm rob
I have been waiting for this tbh
Something else to add: Mike Mignola (creator of Hellboy) worked on the art for this piece :-)
wth is with Strange's face at 4:40 lol
2:19
The Time stone being the "Eye of Agamoto"... Certainly merrrits being wildly powerful on a multiversal scale....
"Strange ! You must see this!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great video rob!
I hope they do this story in MCU. RDJ AND Dr strange together
Mr Voss favourite character..... Mephistopheles!!
Id not read this story. That was awesome, cheers mate.
Jean Grey scared Mephisto 2 years back in a comic story.
And I am wondering that it's taking two sorcerers to handle Mephisto? 🤯
If they had a broadway musical adaptation I’d still watch and live the story
Rob all I can say is YES!!! I just recently bought a Used TPB as for a while was thinking about it for a while went to my local Comic shop and found that in the Doom Section snagged it and after all these years later it still slaps!
2 mins baby! New record!
The video title is something I never thought I'd come across in my TH-cam notifications feed
Doom wielding ilyana Rasputin soulsword in Excalibur trying to get his mother back is awesome
1:37 we'll go with that 😄
Reminds me of an Adventure Time story about Ice King cheating at a wizard battle event by mixing magic with ninja moves. He was using ice nunchucks.
Victor’s mom has got it going on 🤣🤣🤣
Such a Dr Doom move it’s all in the name that felt like some reality drama like an episode or something
Ok but why did she have to be naked? There's no way that was part of the process.
