Blue Beetle and The Silver Surfer Vs. Dr. Doom



Every Marvel movie has been building up to a battle with Thanos, which we are about to finally get in Avengers: Infinity War.  Once that mega-storyline concludes, there will need to be another overarching villain for the MCU... and who better than Doctor Doom?  Sure, he's tied in with The Fantastic Four, but he has had dust ups with just about every major Marvel hero over the years.  Let's hope he finally gets a proper cinematic treatment.

  1. Ted Kord vs. Doc Doom, solo?

    Winner: Doc Doom

    RIP, post-Silver Age Blue Beetle (again).

  2. I could see Beetle when he was at the height of his technical prowess beating Dr. Doom on a bad day (and Dr. Doom used to have a lot of them) but Dr. Doom is no longer that man.

  3. Back in the late Eighties/early Nineties, Ted Kord could have beaten Dr. LIGHT, single-handedly!

  5. Of course, Ted doesn't mention that his friend Oracle has already hacked into Doom's control systems...

  6. Dr. Doom, Rama Tut and Kang the Conqueror would make a good big bad.

  8. Hey Ross, I don't know if you look at the comments for older issues but just in case.

    Was this cover taken from Marvel Comics and The Electric Company present Spidey Super Stories #19, circa 1976?

    With of course Spidey in the Blue Beetle role?

  10. Kewel!

    Amazingly and amusingly enough I still have that comic, one of the few I've retained over the years, and I was just browsing through them.
