    This series has been amazing from the start and a solid first issue is followed up with an amazing second. This is a smart series that mixes superheroics and a political mystery. Doctor Doom #2 is a fantastic issue that helps plant the flag for one of the best series on the shelves today. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Jimmy Hayes Nov 7, 2019

    Buy this issue and the previous one, if you didn't. I guarantee you this book isn't what you think it is. I have a feeling this title is going to be very sought out once people start hearing about how good it is. Read Full Review

    Weird Science Marvel Comics - Jim Werner Nov 6, 2019

    Overall this issue has a good pace to it. I like the idea of Doctor Doom on the run. Cantwell's writing keeps the story moving forward without too many words overtaking the art. Larroca's art is by far the stand out in this issue doing a great job with both the character design and action sequences. It is fun, with a good amount of action and definitely a must read for Doom fans. Read Full Review

    Major Spoilers - Jonathan Cadotte Nov 9, 2019

    There's some nice parts in Doctor Doom #2, but also some not so great parts. If you want to see a more humanizing take on the classic villain with some real human drama, this book has you covered. If you want a well structured, intricate plot, maybe look elsewhere. Read Full Review

    Outright Geekery - Antonio Pedro Nov 10, 2019

    So, in conclusion" This series has been cool so far and hopefully will continue to be as time goes on. While it lacks some of the more badass Doctor Doom moments, it's still true to his character and the intrigue is compelling enough to keep you going. It's only on issue 2, so if it appeals to you in any way, you can still catch up. I mean it's Doctor Doom for goodness sake. Who doesn't like Doctor Doom? Read Full Review
