Dictator Doom's History
House of M
Instead of fighting Magneto during the Mutant-Human War, Doom offered to fight by his side. Realizing that Mutants were obviously the next step in human evolution, Doom wanted to be on the winning side of the war-and he was. Doom became Magneto's most successful ally. Although neither of them truly trusted each other, each man respected the other's powers and abilities.
Fearsome Four
After the Mutant victory over the Humans, Doom took over the nation of New Latveria. He eventually married his childhood sweetheart and love of his life; a Latverian woman named Valeria, and adopted a young Latverian child, named Kristoff.
Acknowledging the rise and dominance of Mutants in society and his discovery of the Cosmic Rays irradiated bodies of Reed Richards, John Jameson, Benjamin Grimm, and Susan Storm; Doom discovered a way to advance himself, by combing mysticism, technology, and Cosmic Rays from the discovered bodies. By doing this, Doom empowered himself and those closet to him, resulting in:
- Doom created a liquid metal he could use as a body armor and manipulate into weapons.
- Valeria became The Invincible Woman.
- Kristoff became The Inhuman Torch.
Doom also recruited Benjamin Grimm, to serve him as the monstrous It. These four powered individuals became the Fearsome Four.
With their newly acquired mystical-based powers, the Fearsome Four became a strike force used by Magneto to keep other superhumans in line. It is a position Doom would prefer not to be in, but with the amount of mutants in the world, and the power Magneto has over them, it would be unwise to lash out in frustration. Especially with no concrete plan laid out for victory.
Following a failed assassination attempt by the assassin Sabretooth, the King of Wakanda Black Panther called forth a Council of Kings, consisting of himself, Dictator Doom, Emperor Sunfire, Queen Storm, and Prince Namor.
Black Panther stated that the assassination attempt was a sign that Magneto is trying to conquer their respected kingdoms and because of this they should unite against him, Doom however interjected stating this was motivated sorrily by race and thus why should he go against one of his own race; a Romani. Storm attempts to persuade him (stating that both Doom and Panther are human), but Doom departs from the Council's meeting, lastly stating to Storm's attempts, that human or mutant Doom will always stand alone.
Despite his failed coup and the death of his wife and son, Doom attends the House of M party, to keep up appearances (it is also possibly that following his fall from grace, Doom has accepted his role as a lapdog to Magneto and attended out of orders).
On arrival, Doom poses with Magneto for pictures by the media. During the attack on the House of M by the 'awakened' heroes, Doom fought against them and was seen grappling with Ms. Marvel.
