Good Doom

Suppose Doom wasn’t a supreme autist, listened to Reed, and his whole life turned out differently. What would a “Good Doom” be like?

That's not Doom

Crank the Whimsy up to 11
If Doom ends up a good guy things are gonna get real wacky real quick, Latveria will probably be more open but that will also leave it more vulnerable to attack, meaning Doom will defend his country.
Also the Doombots are no longer 1-1 copies and fodder, they're a group of unique Robots and Creatures Doom either created or found that help him out with stuff.

I like to think him and Reed eventually team up to kick mephisto's ass

>What would a “Good Doom” be like?
It's hard to imagine all the good a supervillain could do when most superheroes don't even do a fraction of the good they could do, especially vis a vis the propagation of science and magic which are both in Doom's wheelhouse.

He is a good guy. The world would unironically be a better place if he was in charge. This has been confirmed multiple times. To make him better you just have to make him not bored with winning so he actually stays in power forever. Erase his ego and he is still correct.
Doom without ego would be the best our world could hope for.

mephisto happens.

it's difficult to imagine "good" Doom because you have to factor things like ambition and cunning, which villains have in spades and heroes... less so, to say the least. is he ambitious, and he keeps his purported goal of global betterment under Doom? he becomes the God Emperor of Mankind by his second century on this here Earth after power-stealing Galactus

What is this from?

What If? (1977) Issue 22

it's from What If? 22, "what if Dr Doom had become a hero?"

>"Fellow scientists, Doom bids you a good day."
>"Whoops, looks like a Doom slipped out. Grab the lobotomizer."
>"No, my friends, we should work together to make doom doom doom doom. Doom? Doom!"

Then he wouldn't be Doom. The only thing that keeps him from doing actually good things for everyone's sake is his ridiculous insecurity and ego issues. And he's never EVER going to get over it, yes, but for the sake of shitposting let's assume that character growth is possible
If he actually got over it, he'd still be the same eccentric, bombastic, larger than life tin can, but one that actually has friends and most likely family. Things like pic related would be the norm and not something that happens once in a lifetime.

He would be another Tony Stark. Infamos Iron man is an example.

Shitfamous Schizo Man was such a horrible, horrible run for everyone involved. There wasn't a single character who acted like they should've, it's like Bendis did it all out of pure spite.

That'd unironically be great to see. Anime/manga characters tend to be overtly over the top because Japs are autists, so it'd be interesting to see a villain-concept be a bombastic hero-king. And seeing Doom with a family would be cute, wholesome and funny considering the shenanigans they'd get into. In many ways he's an immature manchild with Reed as the actual grownup.

>Doom and Reed kinda awkwardly bonding over how hard it is to be a good dad
Also, it's reasonable to assume that his kid would be the one to become Victorious in that universe, which is bound to lead to all sort of ridiculous situations.

That's not Lucifer, it's just that eternal jobber Mephisto.

Fucking Jobfisto.I remember when Age of Khonshu was hyping him up to be sort of eternal evil omega level threat, and yet for the longest time every time he appears he's either beaten up, or does absolutely nothing and fucks off. Even Nightmare, Dormammu and Shuma Gorath have better track records I think
