HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO XIAOWEI, JAMES AND ELAINE
Here I am going to talk abt the Fantastic Four's mortal enemy... DOCTOR DOOM!!!
Doctor Doom seems to be more based on his Ultimate counterpart. In the 2005 film, Victor Von Doom is a billionaire industrialist and old college rival of Reed Richards. In addition to funding Richards' trip to space, he also accompanies the future Fantastic Four on the ship. In this newer film, Doctor Doom is played by Julian McMahon of Charmed and Nip/Tuck fame, and, similar to Ultimate Doom, receives superpowers in the same accident that creates the Fantastic Four. Here, he is endowed with two abilities by the cosmic rays — exposure to the rays imbues him with electrokinesis, which, similar to his technologically-derived power from the comics, allows him to project bolts of superheated energy, the only difference being that it is derived from the accident in space. Also, an injury caused by a piece of irradiated shrapnel from the shields intended to protect the station imbedded in his flesh, is steadily beginning to mutate his body into an organic-metallic compound, also much like his Ultimate version. Doom accelerates the process to completion by exposing himself to a duplicated version of the cosmic rays, when Ben Grimm aka The Thing is inside a machine that reverts him back to human. However, this process deforms his face, so Doom angrily dons his familiar mask to hide his face and become a full-feldged supervillain (which is portrayed as a mask given to him by the people of Latveria as shown on a plaque on display in his office/boardroom).
