Doom is so fully invested in the fact of his own righteousness, it cracks me up. One of many reasons he's my very favorite character in Marvel.

Well, he's so true to life in that respect.

We have plenty of mad rich people who think they're the hero in their own story.

Trump, Musk, Bezos, Gates, the list goes on...

I always kind of thought Doom was pretty well written because he's just as absurd as real people.

Reed Richards is the Yin to Doom's Yang.

EDIT: Anyone got sources of comics where Richards and Doom are in love? Asking for a friend.

You know what, I'm down. Reed and Sue break up after Reed confesses all his abusive behavior stems from self hate over living a lie.
