Line 47:
* [[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!
* [[Byronic Hero]]
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: My last fight with [[Black Panther]], when Doom easily [[Out
* [[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.
* [[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?!?'''
* [[Doomy Dooms of Doom]]: It is Doom's name, and it is what Doom shall bring to those that oppose him. Why should Doom ''not'' be allowed the psychological advantage frequent use of his name enables?
* [[Driven By Envy]]: For Reed Richards, who is and has always been slightly better than Doom at everythi- '' '''LIES!!!!''' '' NO ONE IS GREATER THAN '''DOOM!''' Richards is an arrogant and envious dolt whose feeble excuse for a mind cannot fathom that of DOOM! It is ''HIS'' jealousy that has driven him to these insidious acts of gross slander!! HE IS NOTHING BESIDE THE AWESOME MAGNIFICENCE OF DOOM!!! ''NOTHING I TELL YOU!!!!'' '''I WILL MAKE YOU PAY FOR THIS, RICHARDS!!!!'''
Line 65:
* [[A God Am I]]: Many times Doom will seek (and occasionally win) god-like powers in order to further his schemes. However, even when he is not empowered, his pride sets him above gods - even they should show him the respect he deserves.
{{quote| '''Doom''': ''No one rivals Doom! There is no power on Earth, no intellect in all creation, to equal mine!''}}
* [[Go
* [[Grand Theft Me]]: One of Doom's many abilities, which I learned from aliens and have used to escape death and imprisonment on occasion. Richards speculates the reason I do not use this more often is because of my vanity. He would be mistaken, as is always the case when he attempts to contemplate the mind of Doom.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: [[The Fantastic Four (Film)|Joseph Culp]] and [[Fantastic Four (Film)|Julian McMahon]] tried to impersonate me on-screen.
** [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: A few were so puny that only tried to talk like Doom! They include [[Fantastic Four (Animation)|John Vernon, Neil Ross, Simon Templeman,]] [[Spider Man the Animated Series|Tom Kane]], [[Marvel Super Hero Squad|Charlie Adler,]] [[Iron Man Armored Adventures|Christopher Britton]], [[Marvel vs. Capcom 2|Lorne Kennedy]], [[Fantastic Four Worlds Greatest Heroes|Paul]] [[Marvel vs. Capcom 3|Dobson]], [[Marvel Ultimate Alliance|Clive Revill]], [[Ultimate Spider-Man (Animation)|Maurice LaMarche]] and [[The Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes|Lex Lang]].
* [[I Gave My Word]]: I ''always'' keep my word. It is not my fault that [[Exact Words|others do not pay crucial attention to the exact words.]]
* [[Immortality Seeker]]:
Line 77:
* [[Jerkass]]: At times, malfunctioning Doombots or bruised egos of lesser beings may give the ill-informed an impression of this. For example, one once called The Leader to gloat that Stark and Richards sent [[The Hulk]] into space, thus cheating him of the chance to finally defeat Banner.
* [[Joker Immunity]]: Partly justified in that Doom has diplomatic immunity due to being ruler of a country. However, there have been numerous instances where Doom has seemingly been [[Killed Off for Real]] only to return later. Once subject to [[Lampshade Hanging]] during a time when I was trapped in Hell: Richards knew it was only a matter of time before I ended up running the place, and plotted to transport me to a prison of his own making before I inevitably escaped on my own (which I did, of course; no prison can confound the might of Doom).
* [[Know When to Fold
* [[Large Ham]]: Doom not only refers to himself in the third person, he can also speak '''IN CAPITALS''' when necessary. Doom can also speak with '''''[[Bold Inflation|BOLD STYLIZED ITALICS]]''''' when the situation warrants it. Which is to say, whenever Doom pleases to do so. '''''TREMBLE IN FEAR BEFORE DOOM'S [[Evil Gloating|TITANIC MONOLOGUES]]!'''''
* [[Like a Badass Out of Hell]]: I fought my way out once.
