There are some panels that I wish I could’ve found online but was unfortunately unable to provide, but for the most parts I’ve been able to provide some of my favorites. I've always liked Dr Doom, for no other reason beyond the green cloak and the armour looking cool, really, and had a vague idea of his backstory so picked this up when I saw it on sale. From his earliest disasters to his scientific triumphs to the tragedy of the fractured man he would become, this is the story you know, and the one you don't.

As the years passed however, magic brought him no success, causing him to turn to science instead, which he quickly mastered. Because Ed Brubaker brings it up in an interview that appears at the end of the Captain America: The Red Menace trade paperback. In the end, this collection of ‘Books of Doom’ makes for an okay tale and origin story, but it’s not nearly as good as one might hope for.There's a bit with a demon, there's magic and technology and war-torn Eastern Europe and for a while it all goes a bit Dr Strange and/or Ra's Al Ghul in Tibet. Werner gave his jacket to his son and warmed him in his embrace, at the cost of his own life, as he froze to death while the two slept. Then, he ends up in the US, at the same school as Reed Richards and Ben Grimm, and also works as a weapon/tech guy for the military. I feel like a story that would flesh out Doom in six issues should have done a better job than it did.

In fact a lot is not explained here, like all the resources Doom had in his gypsy caravan, to the “Baron”, to Tibet, to pretty much everything. Now, let's force the f***tards at Fox studios to read it, so that they may re-start the FF movie franchise properly.

The many people that Doom encountered in his life are perfectly-suited to give their brief but telling perspectives on the man behind that mask. Doom is a larger than life character and yet Brubaker manages to tell a small scale story with incredible weight. We get to see a lot of his early motivations and desires that lead him to becoming the powerful ruler everyone knows him as in the Marvel Universe.

Es el hombre más arrogante del mundo y extremadamente inteligente, y nada le impedirá lograr sus objetivos por mucho tiempo que tarde. but the writing was good, though you can see how Brubaker has grown since nearly 10 yrs ago on this. Victor encounters a lot of tragedy in his early years, his mother dabbled in the dark arts, and it cost her her life and soul; his father died saving Victor while they were on the run from the evil Baron in Latveria. From the black steppes of Eastern Europe, to the college campuses of New York City, and finally to the throne of Latveria -- this is the life of Von Doom! It was pretty entertaining, but only serves as a modern expansion on some ideas that had previously already been explored in Kirby's and Byrne's Fantastic Four runs.The Doombot card got played far too many times over the years but in this case, Brubaker was actually surprised me for once. So probably my favorite run on a comic ever was John Byrne's run on The Fantastic Four in the 1980s. In weiten Teilen gelungene Neuinterpretation eines alten Charakters, der auch sehr von den guten Zeichnunngen von Pablo Raimondi lebt.

He's a New York Times-best-selling donkus of comics like SEX CRIMINALS (winner of the 2014 Will Eisner Award for Best New Series, the 2014 Harvey Award for Best New Series, and named TIME Magazine's Best Comic of 2013), SATELLITE SAM, ODY-C, HAWKEYE (winner of the 2014 Will Eisner Award for Best Single Issue), wrote the longest consecutive run when re relaunced THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN (2010 Eiser Award winner for Best New Series) with Salvador Larocca and, oh, lordy, so many more. When I first read it, I took that scene to imply that the soldiers were under a spell of some kind but your intrepretation fits better.Superficially, it seemed to have similarities to Greg Pak's celebrated 'Magneto: Testament' and his much-underrated but excellent 'Red Skull: Incarnate, exploring the Holocaust-era backgrounds of two more of Marvel's greatest villains.
