One World Under Doom #7 doesnt just push the story forwardit drags you deeper into its oppressive world. The art remains superb, the atmosphere dense, the pacing taut. The plotting feels like the only reaction humans have left when faced with crushing inevitability: a desperate last stand. This issue doesnt shy away from its darknessrather, it embraces it, magnifying every beat into an echo chamber of tension. If previous entries earned praise for smart debate and surprise reveals, this one builds on that to deliver a near-perfect thriller. For fans of cerebral, emotionally driven comics, this issue is essentialterrifying, tragic, and deeply human. Read Full Review

One World Under Doom #7 maintains the tension with sharp social commentary, brutal action, and inventive character twists, but the extended event format risks diluting its impact. Even so, Ryan North and R.B. Silva deliver another engrossing chapter that makes Doom's rise feel chillingly plausible while staging a battle that crackles with energy. Read Full Review

Ryan North and R.B. Silva certainly know how to deliver a spectacle. Read Full Review

North keeps hitting home runs with One World Under Doom. Coming as it does on the heels of the previous issues revelations, there are many predictable elements here. But it benefits considerably from smart decisions North made earlier in the series. These strong ongoing narrative choices, combined with continuing outstanding art, make One World Under Doom #7 yet another big success. Read Full Review

One World Under Doom #7 is a mixed bag: a visually stunning and action-packed issue that, despite its strengths, feels like it's stalling the overall plot. While this issue is highly entertaining, it's ultimately a filler issue that holds the story back from the forward momentum it desperately needs. Here's hoping the next issue brings the much-needed progression to finally move this story forward. Read Full Review

One World Under Doom Issue 7 is a terrific battle against the world's greatest villain. Ryan North has always written an incredible Doctor Doom. He is terrifying, often stoic and calm even when unleashing pain and in the middle of a battle. Read Full Review

One World Under Doom #7 is a disappointing entry in the series. It doesn't move the story forward in any significant way. The writing is the main problem, presenting a villain and wow moments that feel cheap and unearned than memorable. The art has some good moments, but they aren't enough to save this from being a boring and ultimately forgettable issue. Read Full Review

It wasn't super exciting, but it had some good moments and was entertaining, overall.

I really liked the art. Silva did a good job.
The colors too are good (minus the lens flares).
The story however, Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Valeria Richards takes 3 pages to say that “Uncle Doom” has given up on wanting glory and instead just wants power. 3 pages to say what Mom, Sue Richards, said the same thing earlier in the book in a two small panels. Did we readers not read it the first time?

And despite all the horrors that Vic has done, including incinerating soldiers, for her to still call him Uncle (or to have ever called him Uncle) is absurd. But then the character is absurd as she was stillborn (FF #267).

Hill tells the heroes they have "one chance" to defeat him. She must have forgot all the other times there was a chance and the heroes (stupidly) flubbed it.

The heroes then all gang up on Doom for quadrillionth time and have their asses handed to them. Odd though that none of them will have a scratch on them despite those poor soldiers from a couple pages ago. Gives us some consequences!

Then comes the BIG WOW of the book. No, it’s not that Reed has learned magic- it’s that North has apparently never read FF #500 where Reed learned some magic and kicked Vic’s butt.

Reed then announces he’s the “Scientist Supreme” as if it were something we’ve never heard of. Guess North apparently never read Mighty Avengers #30 where Eternity gave the title to Hank Pym. [and yes, I’m aware that Loki said it was him tricking Pym (Might Avengers #34) but he’s not called the God of Lies for nothing].

In FF #500, Mark Waid had Reed dabble with magic; North has him mastering it. This is a significant change in Reed’s power set. Is he to become a full time sorcerer now? While it's "scientific" magic, the power still needs to come from somewhere. What nether godling does Reed owe alligance too? Was this change necessary? I say no.

And in the "short term memory" department, in FF #728, from just A COUPLE WEEKS AGO, Vic told Reed his weakness was babbling too much which gives Vic the opening he needs – so of course in this issue, Reed is babbling too much which gives Vic the opening he needs.

This series reminds me of Gilligan’s Island. Each issue the ‘heroes’ have a new plan, they engage the plan, it fails (often comedically).

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
