September 10th, 2021 10:41 pm - 100 days of enemy recs: 39. DOOM
Do you not already know of DOOM? Surely there is no need to explain DOOM to you! But if I must, I shall, ignorant personage.

Victor Von Doom is one of the classic Marvel villains. Doom is associated mostly with the Fantastic Four (And thus, due to how the rights were split up, has not yet appeared in a live-action movie. nope, no movies for Doom. This will probably change now that Disney has the FF back though.) Doom is definitely a bad guy, generally, but if you had to pick a Marvel character to rule Earth with an autocratic and megalomaniac iron fist, Doom would probably be your best choice. Doom's experienced, Doom is actually fairly good at it, and Doom does truly care about the people under Doom's protection and their well-being. Also Doom has the power of science AND magic, which means Doom can do pretty much whatever needs doing. (These are also good reasons to date Doom.) Doom's personal pronouns are Doom/Doom. (Ditto).

Doom also has a tendency to be inappropriately close with heroes. Mostly Reed Richards, who Doom went to school with (at least in some continuities) and has been best mad science nemeses with ever since, with occasional forays into allies and/or being godfather to his daughter. Reed/Doom is another one of those obvious long-standing enemyships that doesn't have as much fanfic as you'd think. But there was also a phase awhile back in the comics where Doom made a turn toward the reformed and got super flirty with Tony Stark, so there's a fair amount of fic for them too.



Also I wanted to throw in a Sue/Namor rec here, because if you're going to mention Doom/Reed you gotta mention Sue/Namor too. But for some reason nearly all the Sue/Namor fic on AO3 has the share button turned off. But pretend there's a Sue/Namor rec here anyway!
