Morrison takes Reed out of the equation for much of the narrative. He's off working in the lab, and in that absence, Doom strikes. Not with weapons, but with offers of what Ben, Sue, and Johnny want. Doom starts with Ben, by suggesting that he can turn him human again. Ben accepts, only for the deal to have a monkey's paw-style side-effect, the first step in Doom's attempt to dismantle the family.After Doom fails to convince his fellow villains of the underlying threat, he tries to join the heroes before in exasperation, taking charge for himself… This truly king-sized and epically imperious compendium was released to celebrate the 60 th anniversary of the Lord of Latveria, who debuted in Fantastic Four #5 April 1962.

DOCTOR DOOM: THE BOOK OF DOOM OMNIBUS by Stan Lee | Goodreads

That was the first thing I thought when I saw the issues listed! Great story, great art – just epic. It should have been included. Post a ReplyAfter this issue, Doom is completely absent until 1995, though there are several issues where someone else pretends to be Doom: Fantastic Four #318-320 & Incredible Hulk #350, collected in Fantastic Four Epic Collection: The More Things Change… Overall, this omnibus is a book worthy of the name Doom, as it includes most of his best stories, but I can’t help the feeling that Doom himself wouldn’t be too happy with some of the elisions found within, especially in titles in which Doom himself starred. In other words, this isn’t going to end up in Latveria’s library as Lord Doom’s Complete Official History, but as a primer for the average Doom-curious person it’s more than enough to get an idea of why Doom is Marvel’s best villain.
