Doctor Doom, played by Robert Downey Jr, is coming to Avengers Doomsday later this year. And so he is all over Marvel Comics in the run-up, and beyond. It's not just the One World Under Doom book they'll be pushing (although it will be that), there will be lots of Doom related products… iuncluding this one. With Al Ewing revealing pivotal confrontations between Doctor Doom and his greatest rivals in Challengers Of Doom, series of comic book one-shots kicking off in July with Challengers Of Doom: Mister Fantastic with Mike Henderson and then every two months into 2027… with Challengers Of Doom: Spider-Man, Challengers Of Doom: Doctor Strange, Challengers Of Doom: Magneto and Challengers Of Doom: Namor. But first, the young Victor Von Doom "faces Reed Richards in a battle of the minds. Discover the secrets that ignite their legendary feud and the fateful events leading to Doom's transformation into the infamous super villain."

Challengers Of Doom will pit the Lord of Latveria against some of the prime movers of the Marvel Universe as a way of illuminating different facets of Doom's power, personality, intellect and skill. Through them, you'll get a full picture of just why Doom is the greatest of all Marvel's villains," says Marvel Comics' SVP, Executive Editor and still in the building, Tom Brevoort. With covers by Fabrizio De Tommaso, Alessandro Cappuccio, Kael Ngu, and Lucio Parrillo.
