Line 59:
* [[Doomy Dooms of Doom]]: It is Doom's name, and it is what Doom shall bring to those that oppose him. Why should Doom ''not'' be allowed the psychological advantage frequent use of his name enables?
* [[Driven by Envy]]: For Reed Richards, who is and has always been slightly better than Doom at everythi- '' '''LIES!!!!''' '' NO ONE IS GREATER THAN '''DOOM!''' Richards is an arrogant and envious dolt whose feeble excuse for a mind cannot fathom that of DOOM! It is ''HIS'' jealousy that has driven him to these insidious acts of gross slander!! HE IS NOTHING BESIDE THE AWESOME MAGNIFICENCE OF DOOM! ''NOTHING I TELL YOU!!'' '''I WILL MAKE YOU PAY FOR THIS, RICHARDS!!!'''
* [[Egopolis]]: A municipality is only worthy of the supreme honor and beneficence of Doom's ongoing presence if it also bears Doom's name! When Doom seized control of Latveria, the name of its capital was changed from Hassenstadt to Doomstadt, and other major towns followed suit. I left the name Latveria itself alone, however - even under Doom's benevolent new order, tradition and heritage have their value.
* [[Emperor Scientist]]
* [[Enemy Mine]]: So often have the accursed [[Fantastic Four]] had to call on Doom's aid that it is a wonder that the insipid masses still regard them and not Doom as heroes.
Line 73 ⟶ 74:
* [[Go-Karting with Bowser]]: During one of our many battles, Richards and I managed to finish our last, unfinished chess game, which we had ''memorized'' since college.
* [[Grand Theft Me]]: One of Doom's many abilities, which I learned from aliens and have used to escape death and imprisonment on occasion. Richards speculates the reason I do not use this more often is because of my vanity. He would be mistaken, as is always the case when he attempts to contemplate the mind of Doom.
* [[Herr Doktor]]: Much like Doctor Octopus, Doom was given a Germanic accent in ''[[Spider-Man: The Animated Series]]''. Still, in the same continuity, Doom was not only also able to harness enough power to repair his own face and return it to its original, handsome appearance, but finally outdo Richards by curing Ben Grimm... No regrets
* [[Honor Before Reason]]: A Large part of Doom's character. I will never destroy a weakened opponent (Such tactics are beneath a mind such as Mine) and I will always repay a debt to people who helped Me, even heroes (I owed Captain America for saving My life so I saved his).
* [[I Gave My Word]]: I ''always'' keep my word. It is not my fault that [[Exact Words|others do not pay crucial attention to the exact words.]]
Line 120 ⟶ 122:
** The fantasy also includes some [[Fetish Fuel]]: enslaved Emma Frost and Female Loki.
* [[Power Parasite]]: Doom [[Secret Wars|once held the power of the Beholder in his hands]]. Indeed, I wrested it from his grasp with my single remaining hand, after being dismembered in my courageous, one-man assault against the entity. Sadly, Doom was forced to relinquish the power in order to prevent the destruction of the universe due to the incompetence of my servant Klaw and the imbecilic interference of Captain America.
* [[Powered Armor]]: One of my first and most iconic creations, the technology of that upstart Stark pales in comparison with my [[Magitech]]-enhanced armored battlesuit, which contains a small arsenal of high-tech weapons (offensive and defensive), life support systems, flight capabilities via a [[Jet Pack]], a compact yet long-lasting power source, and cybernetic interface. Indeed, while the armor was one of Doom's first inventions (aside from Stark's, it's arguably the most famous example of this trope), it has been upgraded and improved several times over the years; no matter how powerful technology is, it can always be better. Doom also has other versions, including armor for underwater and outer space combat.
* [[Rasputinian Death]]: The Marquis of Death burned Doom, delivered a serious [[Mind Screw]] to break his will, turned his blood into acid and his heart to stone, and sent him back in time, right into the jaws of a giant, prehistoric shark. Doom survived. I have suffered worse.
* [[The Rival]]: Reed Richards. Sometimes [[Iron Man]], sometimes [[Black Panther]].
* [[Robot Master]]: The Doombots may be the most elaborate and complex robotic creations of Doom, but I have made other such devices over the years, including entire robotic armies. Far more reliable and easier to replace than human soldiers (who are often craven cowards when facing enemies of the superhuman variety). Doom has also made robotic duplicates of others, including a super-strong android in the shape of Benjamin Grimm; ''this'' one followed Doom's commands.
* [[Roma]]: Doom is of the Roma people. Persecution of Doom's kinsmen was one of the key forces in shaping Doom's destiny.
* [[Rule of Three]]: For almost as long as I can remember, three goals have defined Doom's career: One, utterly defeat my rival Reed Richards; two, conquer the entire world; and three, rescue my mother's soul from Mephisto. The third goal has been completed after gaining aid in the mystic arts from [[Doctor Strange]]. Vengeance against Mephisto is still pending - the demon is... problematic.
* [[Ruritania]]: Latveria, though far more technologically advanced than most examples, definitely ''looks'' the trope.
* [[Screw the Rules, I Make Them]]:
Line 129 ⟶ 134:
* [[Skyward Scream]]: '''''RICHAAAAARDS!!!'''''
** And more recently, '''''BAAANNNNERR!'''''
* [[Slouch of Villainy]]: The image on the top of this page is just one such example of Doom engaging in this. There have been ''many'' others throughout the years.
* [[Superhero Packing Heat]]: While Doom is extremely powerful, I do carry a regular gun. I only use it if my opponent is not worth using much effort.
* [[Surrounded by Idiots]]: It is inevitable, when my intelligence eclipses that of everyone around me.
