One World Under Doom’s May slate detailed, including a (very) whittled-down FF

It’s gonna be a rough time for the superheroes of the Marvel Universe in May, as One World Under Doom rolls on.

Good luck

Doctor Doom is in one of his most powerful incarnations in One World Under Doom, a Marvel Comics event series that sees the Latverian monarch rise as Earth’s Sorcerer Supreme. Of course, he’s not strictly defending the world in the position, but has seen fit to rule it. And as you’d imagine, Marvel’s heroes aren’t taking it well.

But as May’s collection of crossover titles will show, crossing Victor von Doom isn’t good for one’s health.
