DOCTOR DOOM BY CANTWELL & LARROCA

When Marvel's greatest villain Doctor Doom loses everything, can he even clear his name?

Victor Von Doom is at a crossroads. Wrestling with visions of an entirely different life—a better future—the lord of Latveria offers mankind a stark warning about the folly of a trillion-dollar global effort to create the first artificial black hole. But when a catastrophic act of terrorism kills thousands, the prime suspect is Doom. Framed for a crime he didn't commit, Victor finds himself stripped of everything: no homeland, no armies, no allies. Now the world's most wanted fugitive must go to extraordinary lengths to survive, including a literal journey through Hell, where his old foe Mephisto awaits.

WHEN EVEN DOOM IS HUNTED, WHO WILL STAND WITH THE FALLEN KING?

This is the propulsive chase through the Marvel Universe where Doom battles Taskmaster, M.O.D.O.K., and the Blue Marvel while seeking unlikely aid from Kang the Conqueror. To clear his accursed name, Victor must confront not only his enemies but his own demons—including visions of a parallel world where Doctor Doom became humanity's savior instead of its greatest threat. Perfect for fans ready to see Marvel's most complex villain in a rare heroic role, readers who love political intrigue mixed with super hero action, and MCU fans.
