Talk:Doctor Doom

Third Person

Why does Doom refer to himself in third person? Is that just because he is an uber narcasist?

He is royalty and talking in a rather oldish and dramatic style. People in position like that tended to do that sort of thing. -Oneiros

Numbers of issues

I have added all the refferences needed to the information I gave (specially sections "Doom´s honor", "Doom´s love interests", "Doom´s villains that he has defeated"). I supposse that now the problem of refferences will finish. If it stills, please, tell me what´s the number that I need to add.

MF Doom mention?

Image?

I think that there probably is a better image that could be selected for this article.

@Wrangler1981 @BOZ @Thebiguglyalien @Pokelego999 Would appreciate some feedback ModlordD (talk) 16:19, 29 August 2026 (UTC)

@ModlordD I feel a lot of these either too greatly obscure the character (Whether that be due to angling, shadows, etc) or are otherwise very detailed and have a lot going on. The infobox image should, for the most part, be an image that easily can be seen and viewed for simplicity if someone doesn't know what the subject is, which is why I feel the current image does a solid enough job. That said, if any image were to replace the current one, I'd choose the "One World Under Doom Cappuccio Virgin Variant" since, if edited to focus on just the front of it, it's a very clear picture of his character design and perhaps more detailed than the current one.

@ModlordD It's not bad, but I feel there can be better (I feel the current one is preferable to this since it shows the whole body and is not cut off, personally). Like, I feel it's very aesthetic, but I'm not sure it fits as the best visual depiction of Doom for readers. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 21:04, 29 August 2026 (UTC)

The reason I'm not the fan of the image used, aside from the aesthetic reasons, which I admit is partially why I wish to change it, is because the Alex Ross style that the image has is pretty distinct to that artist and is never used in other areas of comics. I think it makes more sense to have a comic image, rather than a painting. ModlordD (talk) 21:13, 29 August 2026 (UTC)

@ModlordD in that case, I still stand by Cappuccio Virgin Variant being my preferred choice due to it being a full body shot that gives good detail to all parts of the character's appearance, but I will leave this discussion open for other comments if anyone else has a preference here.
