Doctor Doom 2099 is about to go hog wild, taking on Ultron in a new one-shot titled Doom 2099: Rage of Doom #1.
Written by Frank Tieri with art by Von Randal, the issue is a sequel to Doomed 2099, and finds the character who has become so hot in Marvel Rivals on a path to gain back his power and destiny.
“Behold the battle of two of comics’ all-time greatest villains!” Tieri said via press release. “After the shock ending to the last one shot—that Doom 2099 was responsible for wiping out his timeline and all life on Earth—fans of that book were clamoring to find out how things got that way. Well, they need wonder no more because we reveal it here in DOOM 2099: RAGE OF DOOM #1… And we’ve brought none other than Mr. AI terror himself, Ultron, along for the human life-ending ride! (Technically he doesn’t count as life on Earth, ya know…)
“When we rejoin Doom in our story, he’s a broken man who desperately wants to amend what he’s done—the only problem is he needs his time machine fixed in order to do it. Enter Ultron… but will the one-time emperor of the world get what he wants out of Hank Pym’s creation? Or will Ultron add him to the list of the nonliving?”
Added Editor Mark Paniccia, “If there’s one person who can beat Doom, it’s Frank Tieri. He really knows how to torture poor Victor! I almost feel bad for him. And in the first one-shot, we debuted the spectacular talents of illustrators Delio Diaz and Frank Alpizar. This time we spotlight another great new artist, Von Randal.”
Doom 2099: Rage of Doom #1 hits stores on April 29, with covers by Junggeun Yoon, Derrick Chew, and Peach Momoko. Check them out as well as the official synopsis below.
ULTRON VS. DOOM!
Doctor Doom’s spell didn’t just annihilate his enemies – it wiped out all life on Earth, leaving even him to regret the cost. In the desolate future of DOOMED 2099, Doom discovers Ultron’s buried head and risks everything to repair his time machine. But awakening a dangerously powerful machine intelligence invites new rebellion, and the path to redemption may demand a price even Doom never anticipated.
