I agree with you about the Savage Avengers...the series didn’t interest me at all when it debuted. But I will only check it out because this is the first time AFAIK that Marvel’s top magic users have gotten together, two of them being Sorcerer Supreme. Unfortunately for Doctor Voodoo his tenure was IMO mostly outshone by Doom. ;-). I may just get the digital copy through Marvel and save a trip to the LCS.
The last time Taskmaster encountered Doom didn’t end up too well for Tasky either. He was a late addition to the Cabal after Namor and Emma deserted Osborn. When Doom saw him at his last appearance in front of the Cabal, he asked ‘“Who is this fiend”, which I found hilarious but odd. Doom’s intel would be up to date on him but he was probably dismissing him as third rate. Then the room was swarmed with nanobots and Doom blew the place up.
I think you must be right about Blue Marvel being the forgotten hero..IIRC his appearance has already been confirmed.

On another note, I read another bit of info from Bleeding Cool that orders are strong for issue #2 of Doctor Doom. It’s towards the bottom of the article. https://www.bleedingcool.com/2019/10/22/future-marvel-universe-doctor-doom-spoilers/
