Robert Downey Jr. and the Russo brothers are bringing Doctor Doom back to the forefront! Marvel's upcoming storyline, "One World Under Doom," promises a prolonged era of Doom's reign, similar to "Dark Reign," rather than a short-lived event. This means the Marvel universe will continue throughout most of 2025, but under Doom's iron fist as World Emperor, Sorcerer Supreme, and leader of the Superior Avengers.
The Superior Avengers will feature a roster of villains, but with a twist. Familiar names will be attached to new characters:
This 6-issue series, launching in April, is written by Steve Fox and illustrated by Luca Maresca.
This concept isn't entirely new. The Dark Avengers, led by Norman Osborn in 2009, featured villainous replacements for the Avengers. Similarly, Hydra's Avengers in the "Secret Empire" event showcased a twisted version of Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
But how did Doom achieve this level of power? Let's examine the key events leading to "One World Under Doom":
Emperor Doom:
While not the first instance of Doom's global dominance, the 1987 graphic novel "Emperor Doom" perfectly encapsulates the concept of a world ruled by Doom.
President Doom 2099:
In Warren Ellis and Pat Broderick's "Doom 2099," a future Doom nearly conquers America, showcasing his ambition and unique worldview.
Secret Wars:
Jonathan Hickman's "Secret Wars" (2015) highlights Doom's relentless pursuit of power and immortality, even if his methods are questionable. This storyline showcases his ambition on a cosmic scale.
Blood Hunt:
Jed McKay and Pepe Larraz's "Blood Hunt" (2024) is a crucial stepping stone. Doctor Strange, in a desperate attempt to stop a vampire invasion, entrusts Doom with the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme. Doom retains this power, setting the stage for his ultimate victory.
As we await further details from Downey Jr. and the Russo brothers, let's prepare for a Marvel universe completely under Doom's control.
