    Doctor Doom

    Character » Doctor Doom appears in 3789 issues.

    The very mention of his name makes lesser men tremble! The brilliant scientist whose iron mask conceals his scarred (but once handsome) face! Master of science and sorcery, Victor Von Doom is the monarch of Latveria, attempting the betterment of humanity through world conquest! Unequaled and unrivaled in every manner, Doctor Doom has had many conflicts with both earthly and cosmic super-beings, but he will always be known as the eternal nemesis of Reed Richards and his accursed Fantastic Four!

    Question....

    No, his powers come from magic and technology.

    Nothing he had no involvement with that, the movie just screwed up his origin

    Oh sorry, I got confused. I thought you were asking about the comic book Doom. Movie Doom got the ability to discharge electricity and it turned his flesh and tissues into some sort of organic metal.

    Ah I see, lol. Comic Doom wasn't mutated by cosmic radiation like the F4. He derives all his abilities from magic. He can issue magical blasts of electricity for example. Also he is wearing an armored suit, quite like Iron Mans.
