Victor Von Doom is at a crossroads. Wrestling with visions of an entirely different life, the lord of Latveria offers mankind a stark warning about the folly of a trillion-dollar global effort to create the first artificial black hole. But when a catastrophic act of terrorism kills thousands, the prime suspect is...Doom. Left with no homeland, no armies and no allies - indeed, nothing at all - will Doctor Doom's reign come to an abrupt end? Forced to seek out an old frenemy for help, Victor will go through hell - literally. And his old foe Mephisto is waiting for him there. Doom will have to battle Taskmaster, M.O.D.O.K., the Blue Marvel and more - but to clear his accursed name, he must embark on a deadly covert mission with unlikely ally Kang the Conqueror.
