Doctor Doom

Doctor Doom's History

Doctor Doom is the ruler of Latveria and the leader of the villains. He joins forces with Loki to find the Cosmic Bricks to use to power his Doom Ray of Doom which he will use to defeat Galactus and take over the world.

At the beginning of the game, Doctor Doom shoots down the Silver Surfer in his Doom Jet, stunning Iron Man in the process, and begins to collect the Cosmic Bricks dropped by the Surfer, as well as capturing the Surfer himself.

For most of the game, Doom works from behind the scenes, having his other minions do the work for him. He is eventually found in his Latverian fortress by the Fantastic Four and Nick Fury after they defeat Green Goblin, and with Loki's help, he escapes. He is found in an A.I.M. submarine by Iron Man, Thor and Spider-Man, and using the A.I.M. Agents and M.O.D.O.K. to stall time, he escapes in a S.H.I.E.L.D. submarine. However the heroes catch up to him underwater with the help of Jean Grey and he is temporarily captured, but again evades the superheroes thanks to Magneto's intervention.

He flew his Doom Jet to a space station where he planned to complete his Doom Ray of Doom. He is cornered by Captain America, Storm, Spider-Man and the Thing, and fought the team of heroes in a final duel in his space station with his Doombots. Eventually he was defeated and was punched all the way back to Earth by Thing. Loki revealed that he had manipulated Doctor "Dumb" and he summoned Galactus to Earth to take his

revenge.

Back on Earth, Doctor Doom makes a bargain with Nick Fury and decides to gather all the villains to help the heroes fight against Loki and Galactus. He meets up with Magneto and Abomination in New York before flying to the Helicarrier to meet up with the others. He then takes part in the battle against Galactus. After Galactus' defeat, the villains were given a head start to escape and Doom left with the other villains.

History

Victor von Doom was born to Cynthia von Doom, a witch who was killed in a dealing with the demon Mephisto gone wrong, and Werner von Doom, a gypsy healer who died from exposure. Raised by wandering gypsies, Doom dedicated his life to mastering all the sciences and the art of sorcery, but with intelligence came for him great arrogance. When the reputation of his genius reached the United States, Doom was offered a scholarship at Empire State University. Taking an instant disliking to Reed Richards because he found a rival to his intellect within him, Doom scoffed at Richards when he pointed out a flaw in a machine he created to allow the user to project his mind into other dimensions. Doom's vanity got the better of him in the end, as the machine's imperfection caused it to explode, horribly scarring Doom and causing him to be expelled from the university. For a time Doom wandered the world. By the time Doom reached Tibet, he dominated an order of monks and forced them to mystically forge for him a full-body suit of titanium armor. After returning to his homeland of Latveria, Doom usurped the throne from the monarch and made himself dictator and absolute ruler. Now, all Doctor Doom desires is the total conquest of the world, for he believed that he would be better than anyone to rule it. Fortunately, Doom has been consistently thwarted by superheroes like the Fantastic Four and the Avengers, much to his chagrin. As the Latverian ambassador in the United Nations, Doctor Doom has diplomatic immunity in America, preventing him from being arrested by the country's authorities.
