Doctor Doom Journeys to the End of Time and Space in 'Doomquest'

'Doomquest,' a 10-part quintessential Doctor Doom comic book epic by Ryan North and Francesco Mobili, launches in May.

This May, behold what makes DOCTOR DOOM Marvel’s greatest supervillain in DOOMQUEST! The ten-issue maxi-series will be written by current FANTASTIC FOUR (2025) scribe Ryan North, following his masterful work on Doom in ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM (2025), with interior artwork by acclaimed artist Francesco Mobili (DAREDEVIL). No one in Marvel Comics history has had greater triumphs—or more bitter defeats—than Doctor Doom. Now, see him embark on his most ambitious quest yet in this definitive new DOOM saga from two industry superstars. 

A standalone, evergreen story, DOOMQUEST provides a perfect introduction and all-encompassing exploration of the character as he journeys through time to achieve glory for Latveria—and the ultimate victory over his archenemy Reed Richards! It’s a wild and adventurous odyssey that takes readers into the heart of Victor Von Doom, across edges of reality, into action-packed battles you can’t see anywhere else, and beyond! Fans can get a sneak peek at the series by picking up ARMAGEDDON/X-MEN #1 CGD 2026 on May 2, Comics Giveaway Day™, at their participating local comic shop.

THE DAYS OF DOOM!

Doctor Victor Von Doom is a great scientist, an unparalleled sorcerer and the ruler of his own nation.  He is, by any measure, a great man. And yet Doom wants more. And when Reed Richards – Mister Fantastic, his greatest enemy and eternal rival – is showcased at a prestigious international event to which Doom wasn’t even invited, Doom is outraged.

Reed shares his plan for his eventual retirement project: the total optimization of history. He intends to go back in time, to all the eras humanity wasted on war and conflict, and fix them, saving trillions of lives and ensuring humanity can achieve its greatest and final glory. The idea of Reed rewriting history in his own image is, of course, antithetical to Doom, and so he decides to do it before Reed does. But when the Fantastic Four intervene, Doom finds himself in a battle he never intended – across all of time and space!

On returning to the character after ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM, North said, “I thought we'd left Doom in a really interesting place with the events of ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM, and I was looking forward to seeing what others do with him now - and I still am! But when the chance came up to do an evergreen Doom story - meaning one set not in the immediate present but instead in the not-too-distant past, unshackled from his current status quo - it was really alluring, especially when I was told I could go as big and as crazy as I wanted. In short, this is the fun one: Doom at his absolute Doomiest as he careens his way through a quest through time, rewriting history in his image - all to ennoble and exalt his beloved Latveria. It's fun, it's bombastic, and I can promise some absolute banger Doom moments (and speeches!) in it.”

“I'm super excited to be part of this great new project!” Mobili added. “It has been a long time since I last worked as an interior artist for a Marvel book, and I can't imagine a better way to come back! Doctor Doom is one of the greatest villains in comic book history, and Ryan North is one of the most brilliant writers we have in the industry right now. This mix makes it super fun to draw, page by page, and I'm loving everything about Ryan's writing here. I can't ask for more, and I can't wait for you to see what we're cooking up!"
