Fans of Marvel's Doctor Doom

I haven't been following this title since the last Doom cameo I reviewed which was, er, all the way back in issue #7, so given the density of Hickman's plotting I expect to be a bit lost. But his version of Doctor Doom is always worth showing up to the party for.

Not sure if this plot thread will be immediately continued in issue #25 or Doom's part will be sidelined for a while again, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye out. Excellent stuff.

CBR has the lettered preview for Fantastic Four #9.

In other intriguing news, this Tom Brevoort interview about New Avengers reveals that Doom will be back next issue:

The introduction of Doom to the proceedings is not a one off, minor thing. We'll see him again immediately in "New Avengers #7, so he's definitely a player on the chessboard at this point.

Looks like the long, Doomless drought may finally be over! (...This is going to be bad news for my wallet.)
