Be that as it may, his feud with Reed Richards is a huge part of his character. I don't want Doom to just be a big bad. He has the potential, all respect to Thanos, to be the best villain Marvel has produced. He's a guy who could easily have his own movie, if not series of movies. To do that we need to see what made him who he is and where his motivations were born. F4 plays a part in that, even if he's surpassed them long ago.
doom never surpassed the ff.
hacks at marvel were never good enough storytellers or artist to work on the flagship book.
which of course shooter and zeck held tha fukk down, then.
when shooter left marvel it was their end.
as every book in marvel lost its content and historical direction all at once.
plus, it allowed fukk'n hacks to butcher ff. As ff had its film rights all over the place because marvel was so inept. They were close to not owning themselves.
so ff flagship writing went in the trash can water.
along with everything else at marvel.
shooter is why marvel was marvel, period.
when, shooter was not there.
especially, being so close to the image situation.
it ruined the quality that made marvel marvel.
as marvel did not have the real editor there in shooter.
to veto and police the bullshyt thrown against the wall after that.
so of course hacks made doom more into this bullshyt punk ass character.
that eventually no one can fix it and we get what if stories in marvel told like they are real stories that make cannon based sense and they fukk'n do not.
ff became stinkin peach basket trash because there was no real talented editor nor writer there to police marvel or ff.
let alone xmen as well.
which is another discussion entirely as well.
as xmen has been garbage ever since thibert and nieves took over.
plus marvel top draws and flagships.
have been complete what if trash water can juice trash.
since Jim shooter was no longer there.
