    For years there had been a debate as to the severity of the lab accident which had ruined Doom's face. Jack Kirby chose the simple scar element, while Stan Lee chose total disfigurement. It wasn't until the "genius" of John Byrne that the debate was "finally" answered. In doing so, both Jack and Stan were correct. First, the scar reveal. The very first post accident Doom, shown for the 1st time in that awesome bottom panel. And then later, while donning his red hot mask. Thus, destroying the whole of his face for good. In this one issue, Byrne combined both theories, laying them to rest. Thanks, John.

    I believe, though, that BOTH Jack Kirby, and, Stan Lee, DID say, in their own way, that Dr. Doom's facial disfigurement were a combination of events, the hairline scar, from his failed experiment in college, and, the burns it suffered when he placed the red-hot metal mask in his unprotected face! John Byrne just condensed it into ONE story. I believe, though, that in the original telling, it was multiple comics before the WHOLE story was divulged, and , the segment where Dr. Doom foresaw the future, and, saved his mother's soul from Mephisto, with the help of Dr. Strange, are later additions to Dr. Doom's history!

    The recent secret wars storyline should unmasked Victor and possibly the damage caused by putting on the hot red mask. The bridge of his nose was gone as well as some teeth and heavy scarring. In attempt to redeem Victor, Richards managed to repair his face, which, of course, was disfigured again, ironically, during a heroic act when Victor tried to be the new Iron Man. Either way, John Byrne managed to retain the notion. Jack Kirby put forth that it was just a tiny scar on his face, and his massive ego cannot allow the fact that he was no longer perfect.

    I feel like this could be perfect for the next phase! Bare with me here... Doom solo origin film showing the death of his mother, Mafesto (with the Prophecy he'd be a king) and his descent into dark magic. This is also the introduction of Reed Richards (Mr Fantastic) but before he got his powers. They work on a time machine, but when it explodes Doom finds out Reed didn't tell him about a mistakein the calculations, and blames him. The impact is minimised only by the help of a colleague who turns out to be a Tibetan monk who tells him to find Strange and dies in the explosion. After the machine explodes, it appears it works as Doom is visited by an older, cyborg Dr. Doom (from next phase) who is super evil but assumes Doom is too. He hates the hateful thing he's become and kills his future self, and decides to take the path the monk suggests, not realising it's the very path that leads to him becoming a villain. He says goodbye to Valeria and begins the journey to Tibet and the film finishes with his fight with the yeti, and being found by the monks. Then he appears in Doctor Strange as an understudy journey to master, and undergoes the tournament of mystics with Strange. He loses, but tricks Strange into fighting (and defeating) Mafesto, releasing his mother (but only in soul, enraging Doom who finally decides to melt the mask to his face after his failure). Strange is gravely injured in the process. Doom then becomes the new head of the order as the only other Master and takes on Dr. Doom. Other heroes try to save Strange covertly but lose to Dr. Doom, who pummels the new Iron Man/Spiderman (brutally) and offers to split Hulk/Banner (who agrees). Film finishes with Dr Doom vowing to take back his homeland. Whilst this is happening, Captain Marvel is fighting a dark new rising in space. She meets the Fantastic Four who have been on missions in space for years and know of Doom but not as he is now, and don't see him as a threat. They're ambushed in space and both F4 and Captain Marvel ends up getting beaten by (big reveal) Nova. Nova's notable absence is revealed to be due to him being the new herald of (bigger reveal) Galactus. They barely escape, but they're heavily wounded and take a while to return to earth and longer to recover. Back on Earth, Dr. Doom convinces the Guardians to join him, telling them he can resurrect Gamora with his dark magic (he can and does, but she's crazy without her soul). Dr. Doom and co return to Latveria, where people are under harsh rule of the killer of his mother. Dr. Doom takes over, armed with master tactics, tech and new magic, as well as the help from Guardians, Hulk + Strange (who he has manipulated into helping him). Dr. Doom becomes king, fulfilling the Prophecy Captain Marvel + Spiderman infiltrate the city to take him out, but realises he is loved when he regains power. They start to think he could be an ally against the impending Nova + Galactus before getting captured by Dr. Doom. Big finale for the Fantastic 4, Iron Man etc + Shield to get them back from Dr. Doom. Assault on Latveria, with a potential attack from Nova and Galactus inbound. Can they rescue the Captain and Spidy? Will Dr. Doom help in the fight against Galactus when the first wave arrives in the second half of the film, led by Nova? (Galactus start of next phase) I mean, come on...

    What made Doom's win over Mephisto, in Triumph & Torment, great is that he beat the Devil at his own game. Doom tricked Mephisto into releasing his mother's soul. It wasn't enough for Doom to just get his mother's soul but he slapped the Devil in the face while doing it.

    This was more to his backstory then I ever know. I always compared him with Ben Grimm (Thing). The most I know of Dr. Doom was he had a scar that wasn't so bad but, he made it into a disfigurement and put the full blame on Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic). While Ben had become disfigured to the point of not being able to show himself in public do to Reed. If anyone had the right to be mad at the world and seek revenge on Reed, it was Ben. But he choose to keep a positive view on life. This spoke to me on the levels of: just because something bad happens never means you have to be a bad person. But now. Learn how so much lead up to him becoming Dr. Doom and in a weird way.... doing good for what had happen to him and his family.... I guess I need a moment after watch this video to take it all in.

    13:07 Victor von Doom's progression to Dr. Doom could be tied up to the upcoming Dr. Stange in the Multiverse of Madness where the monks from Kamar-Taj could be the ones helping him. And as we see in the trailer Kamar-Taj is in destruction already as Dr. Stange and Wong have returned. Probably Dr. Doom the one opening the multiverse further to save his mother's soul as well as Wanda helping Dr. Doom later in the movie as she finds out that Dr. Doom has this ability.

    Well like the “perfect world” under Doom that was shown he needed to punish, kill, and threaten many people in order to create tolerance and unity. An authoritarian approach to peace. Many I’m sure would disagree with that, Richards, Xavier’s, and Avengers philosophy for example. An MCU example being Thanos who wanted to create a balanced world but needed to wipe out half the universe to do so. They have good intentions but catastrophic plans in conducting them
