Biography

Origin

Victor von Doom

In the year 2099, Doctor Doom abruptly materializes via an energy sphere in the ruins of Castle Doom in Latveria, after disappearing 50–100 years ago. Latveria was now in the hands of a cyborg mercenary robber-baron called Tyger Wylde. Doom confronts the new dictator of the nation, but is quickly defeated by Wylde's superior technology — his armor depleted of energy and destroyed, and his face is scarred. Left for dead, Doom finds refuge with the last remnants of his Romani community, the Zefiro, via the seeress Fortune. With the aid of a brilliant Pixel employee he liberates from corporate enslavement named Dr. Celia Quinones, Doom creates a new, far more advanced and powerful suit of silver, blue cloaked armor capable of competing with Wylde's futuristic technology, in addition to performing neuro-cybersurgery on him. (Doom 2099 v1 #1) Doom becomes a freedom fighter, and successfully strikes back against an increasingly more frustrated Tiger Wylde. Doom stole Wylde's shipment of tritonium, an unstable radioactive mineral, useful both as a regenerating explosive and as a power source so powerful that a large handful could power Latveria for 59 years thereby prompting Wylde to attack.

One Nation Under Doom

Later on, he fought against the resurrected patriarch of the future nation of Wakanda who was a king named Thandaza. It was his granddaughter Princess Okusana who built him in a cyborg body to bring him back, so that she could avoid the pressures of leadership. (Doom 2099 v1 #11) Doom finally defeated Thandaza, returning him to a grateful death, but not before plugging in and ransacking Wakanda of its technology, including the design of their Environmental Maintenance Platforms that kept its air clean of pollutants. (Doom 2099 v1 #12) He then fought an ancient being known as Necrotek, who was once defeated by the three Eyes of Agamotto that were now in the hands of Caius the Spartan. With the help of the Romani’s young adept, Vox, and his single Eye of Agamotto, Doom banished Necrotek with a Caius Circle drawn in cyberspace, where Necrotek had anchored himself, using information Doom found in a hidden library of mystical texts. (Doom 2099 v1 #13) When the man-beast Ravage stole the plans from Alchemax's floating city Valhalla, Doom appeared to him and deciphered them, finding that the thrusters were its weakness. Doom traveled to Valhalla and met up with one of Avatarr's nano-engineered superheroes, Loki, as well as the body of Heimdall, defeated by 2099’s X-Men. Avatarr’s Thor appeared shortly later and attacked Doom, angered by Heimdall’s death. In an attempt to stop Thor, Doom overloaded the source of his power, Mjolnir, but the resulting explosion threw both combatants miles away. When Doom recovered, he returned to face Avatarr, and discovered that the flaw in the engines which would soon send the city crashing to the ground in the middle of New York was well known by Avatarr, who was oblivious to the damage it would cause. (Doom 2099 v1 #14) Doom teamed up with 2099’s Spider-Man, Punisher, and Ravage to bring down Valhalla. (Punisher 2099 v1 #13) However, once it was under control, Doom appropriated the flying city and made it a new providence of Latveria. (Spider-Man 2099 v1 #17)

Later, while searching for signs of the alien life that he remembered from the 20th Century, Doom stumbled across a source in Antarctica that was sending and receiving a signal from deep space. Doom traveled to Antarctica to investigate the signal and found a being called Radian who used a technology based on manipulation of light itself. (Doom 2099 v1 #15)
