No one rivals Doom. NO ONE. Doom is supreme. There is no power on Earth, no intellect in all creation to equal mine.
- —Doctor Doom
Doctor Victor von Doom is a supervillain from Marvel Comics. He appeared in the 49th episode of Death Battle, Darth Vader VS Doctor Doom, where he fought against Darth Vader from the Star Wars series. He returned for the 142nd episode, Lex Luthor VS Doctor Doom, where he fought against Lex Luthor from DC Comics.
History
Victor von Doom was born decades ago to a tribe of Latverian Romani people under the rule of an unnamed nobleman called the Baron. His mother was a witch, who died by the demonic Mephisto's hand while Victor was young. His father kept his wife's sorceress life quiet in order to protect Victor from a similar fate. Once in the United States to study science, Victor met fellow student and future nemesis Reed Richards, who was intended to be his roommate, but Victor immediately took a dislike to him. After a time, Victor constructed a machine intended to communicate with the dead. Though Reed tried to warn him about a flaw in the machine, Victor continued on with disastrous results.
The machine violently failed and the resulting explosion seemingly severely damaged his face. Expelled after the accident, Victor traveled the world in solitude with a newfound taste for revenge. He would later don a special suit of armor, complete with a scowling mask, that would serve as the divider between him and the world, as well as taking on a new name, "Doctor Doom". With his armor, scientific genius, and magical mastery, he took over his home country of Latveria, claiming the throne and transforming into one of the greatest evils of the universe.
