Oh, I agree with you on the missed opportunities, especially with Adam Brashear. I really don't know that much about him but I thought there was a wee bit of irritation(?) when Reed called him up earlier in the series. I could see Doom trying to exploit that if he knew about it. I hope we haven't seen the last of Morgan either. Zora might be getting back into his good graces after she came through with the Ultimate Nullifier. He did dress her down pretty badly for the Symkarian takeover. I don't think she could have done much about that anyway. Ge may just act like it never happened when he sees her again and just go on as if nothing happened. Doom does not make apologies. :-)
As to that Ultimate Nullifier I am still suspicious as to it's validity even with it's label. It coul be that Cantwell is being a bit outlandish or cynical in showing just what you may find on the black market these days. If you can even get your hands on something like that it's no wonder talking about gun control in this country is pretty hopeless.
And yes, that phone call to Reed was funny. For one thing, was Doom on a pay phone??? I'm sure he could hack into one but how did he know what number to call? Do they have a special hot line or something?
I think it's a bit disappointing that the chances of Marvel making much out of any domestic situation with Doom is pretty remote. At least I have the next 2 issues of X-Men/Fantastic Four to see if we get any more Doom/Valeria scenes together. I'm resigned in thinking that Amara and the child she is carrying is consigned to limbo, like Kristoff was for so many years and now once again. He's not been seen since Hickman's New Avengers. I was going over a scenario in my head the other day where Amara has had the child but is now married to someone else (not Stark). I don't think that would sit well with Victor knowing that a child of his will look at some other guy as his father.

BTW, there was an announcement this week that Marvel is working with another company on publishing some prose novels. Not much detail yet on who the writers will be but the one about Doom is titled Doctor Doom: The Harrowing of Doom. https://www.newsarama.com/49303-domino-doctor-doom-more-lead-new-marvel-prose-line-debuting-in-2020.html
