Summary

Doom 2099 (1993) is a seminal science fiction and superhero comic book series published by Marvel Comics under its futuristic Marvel 2099 imprint. Created by writer John Francis Moore and artist Pat Broderick, the series revitalized Marvel's most iconic villain by placing him into a bleak, dystopian future ruled by ruthless megacorporations.

In the year 2099, Victor Von Doom mysteriously materializes in the ruins of his former homeland, Latveria. Disoriented and stripped of his former power, Doom discovers a fragmented world devoid of traditional heroes, dominated instead by unchecked corporate giants like Tiger Wylde and the mega-conglomerate Alchemax.

Refusing to accept the downfall of his legacy, Doom undertakes an aggressive campaign to reclaim Latveria. Upgrading his classical mystical armor with cutting-edge 2099 cybernetic nanotechnology, Doom transforms from a classic villain into a calculated, pragmatic anti-hero. His relentless ambition eventually drives him across the Atlantic to overthrow the corrupt United States government, establishing himself as the President of the United States to bring strict order, technological progress, and justice to a fractured world.
