I would say the art of One World Under Doom #1 is just as hard-hitting as the story is. R.B. Silva draws with such an excellent amount of detail, it makes you feel right in the middle of the chaos. Adding in David Curiel on colors and Travis Lanham on letters, there's really no going wrong here. Read Full Review

Overall, One World Under Doom #1 has the potential to be a truly epic event. The premise is captivating, and the initial setup is intriguing. If executed well, this could be a defining moment in the Marvel Universe. Read Full Review

While some may quibble with some of the character portrayals (such as Doom telling a lie by omission), this first chapter of One World Under Doom is a solid start. The action and artwork are engaging, and the core message is uncannily well-timed. This may ultimately prove to be the best miniseries of 2025. Read Full Review

One World Under Doom #1 nails the complicated nature of what I think is one of the best villains out there and teases a story that might explore the current dilemma the world faces, demagogues promising the world in exchange for our fealty. There's massive potential in this series which is a concept we've seen before but one that's never been more relevant than today. Read Full Review

One World Under Doom #1 successfully kicks off an ambitious, nine-issue event by balancing high-stakes superhero action with a deeper narrative about control and propaganda. Ryan North's thoughtful approach to Doom's power play and R.B. Silva's dynamic artwork elevate the issue. This is an event worth following for both its scope and its fresh thematic underpinnings. Doctor Doom's greatest power isn't magic or scienceit's the ability to make you question who's really the villain in One World Under Doom. Read Full Review

Overall, One World Under Doom #1 delivers a solid opening act, but it will take time to see how or even if the series will reshape the future of the Marvel Universe. Read Full Review

Its the kickoff to the big event of the year, and its going to be a long one. While the premise is quite interesting, considering Dooms new role in the Marvel Universe, but the issue seems to be decompressed for the majority of it. Ryan Norths had a celebrated run on Fantastic Four, so having him on lead this makes sense, but not a lot happened here. If hes going to keep peoples attention for the next 9 months, hes going to have to amp up the action. Read Full Review

One World Under Doom #1 effectively kicks off Marvel's big event. Even when running into continuity heavy problems Ryan North and R.B. Silva make sure to have the focus be on the present. That allows Doctor Doom's declaration of becoming the Emperor of Earth and the plight Marvel's heroes find themselves in to fully get over. Read Full Review

Silva delivers beautifully detailed and stunning art throughout the issue. I love the visuals a lot and there is enough huge action moments to keep me engaged visually. Read Full Review

But its not all doom and gloom. Theres a Doombot T-Rex. Sue Storm has an invisible plane. Johnny Storm has patchy facial hair. And its all lovingly rendered by R.B. Silva, now a superstar artist in his own right thanks to his work throughout the Krakoa-era X-Men books. You can just tell when a comic is in good hands, and with the space to tell a longform crossover narrative, North is just getting started literally with One World Under Doom #1. Read Full Review

Fun comic, but feels a little dry in terms of telling its story. Read Full Review

One World Under Doom #1 elevates Doctor Doom, the current Sorcerer Supreme, to Emperor of the World with an action-packed script and an impressive Doom twist by the end. Unfortunately, Ryan North's lack of a plausible setup and obnoxiously blaring allusions to current-day politics kill the enjoyment factor. Read Full Review

Takes place in a fantasy world where the tyrant ruling America has a healthcare plan, dignity and a sense of style

Doom has concepts of a plan

Sign in to comment

All hope lies in Doom.

Plot
Doctor Doom, after six months in Latveria, launches a worldwide broadcast where he reveals that all the leaders of the world's countries swore loyalty to him and now all belong to LATVERIA UNIT, a single nation on the entire planet. Everything is monitored by the Doombots and any attempt at subversion will be cruelly attacked.

Doctor Doom's magical powers as the Sorcerer Supreme are omnipresent and extremely powerful.

The Avengers, Fantastic Four and other Marvel heroes gather to prepare an attack strategy, which is supported by Black Widow who has been spying on Baron Zemo and HYDRA, who reveals that HYDRA will never be under DOOM's command and they launch an attack on the border of Latveria and disappear. Minutes later Doom makes a worldwide broadcast where Zemo swears loyalty to him.

This whole situation is strange, so the Marvel heroes go to HYDRA headquarters and discover that Zemo is actually a DOOMBOT. Iron Man reveals this to the entire planet to show that Doctor Doom is a manipulative liar.This comic shows the strategies of a dictator, which although it is a fantastic story causes chills due to its familiarity with reality.

Doom interrupts Iron Man and justifies his actions as a way to end HYDRA, leaving him as a kind of hero, people are seeing him as a messiah and not as the tyrannical emperor that he is.

This event begins with mystery, suspense and a lot of action where we see that Doctor Doom has a well-planned plan since he took the mantle of Supreme Sorcerer from Doctor Strange, the premise is interesting and the development brilliant.

Art
It is very detailed, it creates an atmosphere of suspense that mixes magic with science fiction in the perfect balance with all the heroic poses, the art is as epic as the event.

Summary
Doctor Doom begins his plan of world control using lies and demagoguery as a weapon and his magic power as support. Doom appears to be more invincible and infallible than ever.

I actually liked this a lot. It wasn't perfect, but it looked good and made me care. I just think it's funny that Doom gives the world the things they want and the Avengers have to jump in.

One World under Trump… sorry, Doom.

But seriously, aside from being an obvious and biased metaphor for the political situation in the US, I have seen worse books. It’s not Ryan North‘s fault that he has to work with the current lifeless and boring Avengers roster, but he makes the most of it. It’s funny though to see Storm relegated to a bystander, considering she just had dinner with Doom and also should have a lot more to say about the situation in her role as a former queen and regent of Arrako.

I like the ongoing fantastic four run by North. I found this boring and mediocre. Someone else described it as hollow. That is a good description.

This book seems extremely hollow to me. We have already seen Doom take over the world and he ran it so well that he became bored. I really don't need a rehash of that story done exactly the same way. Ryan North is not a great writer. He's been on Fantastic Four going on three years and no one talks about it. Why would you have a mediocre writer kick off your multi-book event? He should have taken it in a different direction. Since he's sorcerer supreme, North should have taken to battle the gods of Asgard, or taken over the nine realms. It makes no sense for him to stay purely on Earth. And how the hell did Sue create an invisible plane in the vein of Wonder Woman and how does it propel itself with no engines. Entirely stupid. This was a one and done for me. I really don't care what happens next.

This is a bad comic. Uninspired art and atrocious story. Another Marvel idea to repell people from reading comics. All of you giving this piece of crap a positive reviews are the big problem.
