Fantastic Four: Books of Doom

In this 2006 Marvel miniseries, writer Ed Brubaker and artist Pablo Raimondi deliver a definitive, revisionist origin of Doctor Doom. Spanning from his childhood in Latveria to his fateful college encounter with Reed Richards, the story reframes Victor von Doom's descent as a tragic, almost sympathetic journey. It's a self-contained character study that deepens one of Marvel's greatest villains, making it essential reading for fans of the Fantastic Four's arch-nemesis.
