Yeah, it's interesting that Cantwell includes Victorious in this preview, so he's obviously up on the recent Slott stuff, and I'm curious if he's going to attempt to do anything to reconcile that a bit more with the Infamous Iron Man arc. (Though I struggle to see how when Slott's F4 is so wildly out of step with about the last ten years or more of Doom's characterisation and development. But I'll happily accept any weak handwave about deliberately burning his bridges and playing up to worst expectations after the trying to be a hero thing or whatever so we can just pretend it never happened and move on.)

And I was actually going to say that admittedly you can't always tell intended age from comic art, but I think the fact Doom asks about children implies she's the age to have younger kids and he doesn't know her that well, rather than being the mother of a child he grew up with. But I am kind of wondering if Cantwell just plain forgot or missed the detail of Valeria being established as Boris's granddaughter.
