▲Doctor Doom is a [[Marvel Comics]] villain wh- ''[[Killed Mid-Sentence|ARGH]]!''
'''''[[Silence, You Fool|SILENCE]], [[Troper]]!''''' '''[[Incoming Ham|You are not worthy to describe the glory of]]''' '''''[[Third Person Person|DOOM]]!''''' '''[[Self-Demonstrating Article|This task can be achieved only by DOOM himself]]!''' That is why Doom honored this [[Surrounded by Idiots|useless wiki]] with his presence. Sit and enjoy the tale of the greatest [[Evil Overlord]] and [[Mad Scientist]] that ever lived, as well as the greatest [[Badass]] who could easily [[Take Over the World]] if not for that [[Memetic Mutation|Blasted]]...(''seethes'') Reed. Richards. (''deep breath'') '''''[[Say My Name|RRRRRRICHAAAAARRRRRDDDSS!!!]]'''''
Line 40 ⟶ 39:
* [[Always Second Best]]: To Reed Richards and Doctor Strange in the fields of science and magic, respectively. That is, they are always second best to Doom. If you hear otherwise, it is because they have persuaded feeble-minded tropers that their jealousy-clouded account is the true one. Be wiser than they.
* [[Arch Enemy]]: '''''RIIIIICCCCCHHHHAAAARRRRDDDSSSS!!!!!!'''''
* [[Awesome McCoolname]]: ''Victor Von Doom''. [[Ultimate Marvel]]'s Victor [[Jean
* [[Badass]]
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Doom's intelligence is without question, and even without the [[Power Armor]] Doom is still a formidable (albeit [[Badass Normal|completely human]]) combatant; Doom has even killed a lion with his bare hands on one occasion (when stranded in the wild on an alternate Earth). While completely naked. And then Doom skinned it for meat and for sinew to make weapons. Then Doom [[Nemean Skinning|wore its carcass as clothing and used its face to make a new mask]].
Line 46 ⟶ 45:
* [[Big Bad]]: What Richards and his family often insist Doom is.
* [[Beauty to Beast]]: Doom was once a handsome man, until that meddling Reed Richards disfigured Doom's marvelous visage into a hideous shape that is hidden behind a steel mask. But Doom's will is ''steel!'' No mere scratch will tarnish Doom's resolve!
* [[Bond Villain Stupidity]]: BAH! Fools may mistake Doom's unpredictable strategies in this way - but ''only'' fools. Any oaf could destroy Richards with sufficient force: that is ''not'' Doom's goal. Only when Richards is shamed and humiliated, after Doom has brought his whole world down around him, when he recognizes his defeat as total - ''then'' and only then will Doom grant him the mercy of death.
* [[Byronic Hero]]
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: My last fight with [[Black Panther]], when Doom easily [[Out-Gambitted]] and crippled T'Challa. Though T'Challa paid Doom back for that in "Doomwar", I will not let that lie, I assure you.
* [[Deal with the Devil]]: Mephisto and I had a specific deal that allowed me to attempt to rescue my mother from Hell once a year, but each time I failed, the people of Latveria would hate me more and more. I eventually succeeded with some slight assistance from [[Doctor Strange]]. Though admittedly, with a [[Pyrrhic Villainy|very heavy price]].
* [[Depending on the Writer]]: Doom has been forced to suffer fools often in this regard.
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: During the ''[[Secret Wars II]]'', that idiotic upstart Thanos dared order me to kneel before him, reminding me he once held the unfathomable power of the Infinity Gauntlet. I told him I saw no reason to do so, as I saw no Gauntlet on him now, and he said his name should be reason enough. He regretted his folly when I ripped his skull and spine out of his body.
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: Some claim that Reed didn't do what Doom has sworn vengeance on him for. In fact, retcons suggest that Reed was wrong and Doom's device actually worked perfectly well—the problem was that Doom used it to look into Hell itself! Bah! No punishment is too great for that accursed Richards. Doom is greatly displeased by these ludicrous and patently false charges.
* [[Don't You Dare Pity Me!]]: ''Pity?'' '''PITY?!''' Only the weak are pitied, and Doom is never weak! '''DO YOU DARE TO IMPLY SUCH THINGS ABOUT DOOM?!?'''
Line 81 ⟶ 82:
* [[Like a Badass Out of Hell]]: I fought my way out once.
{{quote|"There is '''Doom''' enough for everyone!"}}
* [[Legion of Doom]]: Certainly, I have implemented such a Trope now and then, recruiting other superhumans into a team under my leadership, the most notable being the conflict that is now called the ''[[Secret Wars]]''.
** Also, I was offered a position in Loki's cabal during the ''[[Acts of Vengeance]]'' fiasco. While I found such a project interesting, {{spoiler| I had no time to engage in such a ruse personally, and had a Doombat deal with the matter.}}
* [[Mad Scientist]]: A greater one than that pitiful, prideful accursed Richards whom you impudent fools worship as the epitome of men of super-science!
* [[Magitek]]/[[Magic Knight]]: Doom is one of the few residents of the Marvel Universe who possesses the skill and genius required to combine sorcery and super-science.
Line 110 ⟶ 113:
** The fantasy also includes some [[Fetish Fuel]]: enslaved Emma Frost and Female Loki.
* [[Power Parasite]]: Steals Beyonders' ability is [[Secret Wars]].
* [[Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil]]: I wholeheartedly agree. I once rescued Sue Storm from this fate at the hands of a vile duplicate of myself from another world.
* [[Rasputinian Death]]: The Marquis of Death burned Doom, delivered a serious [[Mind Screw]] to break his will, turned his blood into acid & his heart to stone, and sent him back in time, right into the jaws of a giant, prehistoric shark. Doom survived. I have suffered worse.
* [[The Rival]]: Reed Richards. Sometimes [[Iron Man]], sometimes [[Black Panther]].
* [[Robot Master]]: While the Doombots may be the most elaborate and complex robotic creations of Doom, but I have made others over the years, including entire robotic armies. Far more reliable and easier to replace than human soldiers (who are often craven cowards when facing enemies of the superhuman variety). Doom has also made robotic duplicates of others, including a super-strong android in the shape of Ben Grimm; ''this'' one followed Doom's commands.
* [[Roma]]: Doom is of the Roma people. Persecution of Doom's kinsmen was one of the key forces in shaping Doom's destiny.
* [[Royals Who Actually Do Something]]: Indeed. Royals who do ''nothing'' are fools who do not face their responsibilities! King Vladimir Fortunov was such a fool... Killing him in order to seize the throne of Latveria was not only a simple deed but a benevolent one that has given security, comfort and a new sense of significance to Latveria.
* [[Rule of Three]]: For almost as long as I can remember, three goals have defined Doom's career: One, utterly defeat my rival Reed Richards; two, conquer the entire world; and three, rescue my mother's soul from Mephisto. Doom has completed the third goal after gaining aid in the mystic arts from [[Doctor Strange]]. Vengeance against Mephisto is still pending - the demon is... problematic.
* [[Ruritania]]: Latveria, though far more technologically advanced than most examples, definitely ''looks'' the trope.
* [[Screw the Rules, I Make Them]]:
Line 118 ⟶ 125:
* [[Skyward Scream]]: '''''RICHAAAAARDS!!!'''''
** And more recently, '''''BAAANNNNERR!'''''
* [[Slouch of Villainy]]: The image on the top of this page is just one such example of Doom portrayed this way. There have been ''many'' others throughout the years.
* [[Superhero Packing Heat]]: While Doom is extremely powerful, I do carry a regular gun. I only use it if my opponent is not worth using much effort.
* [[Surrounded by Idiots]]: It is inevitable, when my intelligence eclipses that of everyone around me.
