>>24806290
Make sure we have 24 bottles of water in our dressing room. Also, is spiderman coming?

>>24806290
>Try to explain the redundancy of makeup to your dressing room crew

just let them do what ever just scan it first to make sure its not poison.


Make your TV appearance

ride in on a hover board, make sure to give john and spidey one (with enough for the audience.) (did we get spider man?)

>>24806379
>>24806383
Yes sir, spiderman was most pleased with the deal offered. I had to use a jetpack from the armory to talk with him. I apologise for not asking first

They seem to think you won't be wearing the mask, despite my attempts to convince them otherwise

>>24806413
>They seem to think you won't be wearing the mask

Do not worry Lucia, we will handle them personally.

"The mask will stay. Now be gone. SO COMMANDS DOOM!"

>>24806413
what? I thought we weren't wearing the mask and Armour but a nice Latveria suite? and a very strong glamor. his this changed I thought we were premiering a more human DOOM tonigh

>>24806383
>just let them do what ever just scan it first to make sure its not poison.
We're wearing an armored faceplate. And it looks amazing no matter what angle it's filmed from. Makeup is pointless.

>>24806290
>Finances stand at $18 billion dollars. Your new currency seems to be on the rise, being worth around $2.37 to one Latverian Victor
This is great news. We need to convert about 1 billion into other currencies. Shuffle it all through different companies we own. Begin buying stock in other major companies. Doom desires seats on the boards of directors of Roxxon Oil, Stark Enterprises, Porsche, Damage Control, Mercedes Benz, Apple, Microsoft, and World Bank.

Contact Doctors Without Borders. Inform them that we wish to donate 500 Servo-Guards equipped with non-lethal weaponry to safeguard their doctors. That will make a good talking point in the interview.

>>24806465
That idea seems to have been voted against.

I support the armour. It's classic Doom.

>>24806465
The armor, cape, and mask are integral to our image.
And we do not need a 'more humanized' DOOM.
We are a changed man, but we are still DOOM.

>>24806483
>Inform them that we wish to donate 500 Servo-Guards equipped with non-lethal weaponry to safeguard their doctors
Include solar cell-equipped refrigerators for each of their doctors.
You know what's just as important as Servoguards? Being able to keep antibiotics and medicines viable in tropical and desert conditions.

>>24806516
>You know what's just as important as Servoguards? Being able to keep antibiotics and medicines viable in tropical and desert conditions.
That is important, but not having their doctors kidnapped and beheaded by radical religious lunatics is kind-of a high priority as well.

>>24806497
>We are a changed man, but we are still DOOM.
NO! Nonono. That's not the point. We are NOT a 'changed man', we are doing the interview to explain to the world that we are the same man we've always been, without the lies of Richards and Fury and 'the heroes' clouding public opinion.

>>24806543
They're both high priorities, so why don't we just do both?

Now, we're going to have to keep our cool; the Daily Show is part comedy, which means that there WILL be jokes made about us and Latveria.

>>24806483
Yes sir. I believe, however, many of these companies have a large market value, such as apple costing $500 billion. With this money, however, I could purchase all of the shares in both Porsche and Mercedes benz

>>24806516
I shall have those constructed, sir. it would be impossible to convert these. I am sure they will be most grateful for this gift

>>24806516
>Include solar cell-equipped refrigerators for each of their doctors.


Include advanced Latvarian power-cell equipped refrigerators. The kind that last 30 years without needing replacements.

In fact, just tell the Doctors without borders people to send us a list of any equipment they need.

>>24806413
>>24806486
>>24806497

If the Audience eggs us on to take it off we probably should

Daily Show is a political comedy though right? don't watch too much tv

>>24806562
Except that's patently false and both heroes and villains alike would call us out on that, not to mention we've been on-air, on the public record, as actually saying we are going to take over the world, kill the Fantastic Four, and many other threats to the world.
You can't spin "And now I shall kill the Fantastic Four, and the world shall tremble before the might of Doctor Doom!" being holographically projected into the New York sky for everyone in Manhattan to see and hear, as being a simple misunderstanding.

>>24806671
uhh, reed did it

Sup Doombots

>>24806648
Lets put a glamour pf Richards face on for shits and giggles in case they do just that

>>24806671
Uhh yeah lets just go with the changed man schtick for now

>>24806580
>Yes sir. I believe, however, many of these companies have a large market value, such as apple costing $500 billion. With this money, however, I could purchase all of the shares in both Porsche and Mercedes benz
It's a good start. The dividends from those will increase our coffers considerably and speed the rate at which we purchase stock in major industries. Once we own a controlling interest in Porsche and Benz, have Victory Motors buy them out entirely. Victory will be the premier name in luxury.

One quarter of the income we get from these companies should go towards purchasing further shares of major companies. One quarter should go towards purchasing bonds and debts from America and other struggling industrial nations. China all but owns America at this point, and Doom desires a share. Eventually, we want to buy America's debt from China (long term goal). This will strengthen the Victor immeasurably. The last half will go to the treasury to help fund our other projects.

>>24806695
second this. It is a comedy show after all

>>24806695
>glamour pf
what is that?

>>24806721
Of course, sir. Shall I purchase the company outright or just get 51% of total shares?

Shall I arrange transport to the studio? There is a few hours before the filming, but there will be security checks and crew to meet.

>>24806762
Not the guy you are responding to, but p is next to o on the keyboard.

>>24806728
>>24806695
Do it in layers. They push us to take off the mask, so we do, and show Richards' face. If they push us to drop that glamour, we reach up and 'pull off' that face to show Colbert's. Then Stark's, then a glamour of our mask. At the very end of it all, use a glamour of what we looked like before the accident.

>>24806721
We should have an eye on buying major shares of Krupp, BAE, Howa Heavy Machinery, Daewoo International, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, and Siemens.

>>24806791
No showing face.
Final Glamour has to be another mask.

>>24806772
51%, and take your time. This is a long term goal. You have 6 months. We don't want anyone to notice or get suspicious until it's too late to stop us.

>>24806774
>>24806762
That was meant to be an O bt im currently typing from my phone as i usually do when im in this thread just make an educated guess at what im saying if i mistype.

>>24806791
you know what, I don't like this, I love it

>>24806791
I can get behind this, except that the final layer should be just another mask.

>>24806810
Agreed. Add them to the list.

>>24806772

51% is enough to do the job, buying the rest is pointless.

Before we go, ask Valaria if she has anything for her family. Letters/post card/souvenir/whatever. We can drop them off while we're NYC

>>24806772
Arrange transport to the studio now.

Also, spread the purchases out through holding companies, and go for 51% of total shares.

>>24806811
Wait no Ive got it our final.glamour IS deadpool complete with voice.

"Uh, Oh yeah! I wrote Mom a letter. Will you be back soon?"

The transport is one of your regular shuttles, though progress is being made in times square for your doomportals

>>24806812
Of course, sir. I am glad to have a new nighttime task. Baking is somewhat unsatisfying considering I can't eat.

>>24806811
Are you sure, sir? You are rather dashing

>>24806847
.... Save Deadpool's image, and him and his clone, for the Colbert Report.

>>24806920
I have to agree. Deadpool is a better fit for Colbert.

>>24806920
YOU....i like you

>>24806890
>Are you sure, sir? You are rather dashing
Yes, but this IS the Daily Show.
It's about comedy, and while DOOM has destroyed his regret and self-doubt, his sense of humor remains intact.

>>24806920
agree


>>24806890
always the mask always.

>>24806648
>Daily Show is a political comedy though right?
Yes it is. It's a political comedy show whose basic format is as a fake news show. They've won awards for both the quality of their comedy, and the quality of the actual journalism they do while setting up the jokes. It's widely considered the most trustworthy of all American news programs, beating out Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC.

>>24806989
> fake news show
> Trustworthy news

I suppose viewers just learn to read between the lines?

>>24806966
>>24806955
Of course, sir.
Would you like to meet with spiderman? I believe he is currently at the cast buffet. You will find the briefcase of money on the back seat of the transport. If not, I can do it myself.

>>24806989
Offtopiv: I find the fact that an American Satire show is a better news reporter than ACTUAL news station soberly Depressing.

>>24806966
Yes the last glamour is a mask.

>>24807025
Yes, I would like to speak with him personally. He is arrogant, brash, headstrong, but also unusually clever. He is not just a thug in primary colors like so many of the 'heroes', there is more to him.

>>24807025
>briefcase of money
Yes, Lucia. You shall hold on to the briefcase, and we shall meet with Spiderman. You shall hand him his payment.
It is beneath DOOM to handle such things.

>>24807025
>Would you like to meet with spiderman?

If we have time before the show we can say hello. Did he name the charity he wanted the donation to go to in his name?

Also, have the probes searching the system noticed anything else since we captured the Skrull ship?
And how long until the new deep-space sensor satellites are ready to be deployed?

>>24807025
Tell him "The Eye that watches the world is unprepared for the onslaught approaching", then walk off.
It doesn't mean shit, but it'll creep the fuck out of him.

>>24807134
Actually it does; the Illuminati that watches over the world is unprepared for the sheer scale of the Skrull invasion.
Let's not say anything that might give away our secrets.

>>24807071
You approach him, myself in tow with the briefcase. He seems to be eating a surprising amount of the most expensive things on the table

"Oh, hey there vic. What's up?

>>24807119
No, sir. The computer systems of the skrull ship made no mention of other ships in the system.
I can have the sensor range boosted but power is an issue. It may take some time, as other countries may not be happy with you launching so many sattelites

What do people think about announcing on the show that if Syria can come to a peace agreement in say 6 months or so DOOM will match the first 2 billion dollars in rebuilding and infrastructure upgrades donated by other countries.
Also tempted to put up a 5 billion dollar matching pledge for a peace deal between Israel and Palestine, with a time limit of 1 year.

>>24807179
>DOOM PORTAL for the ISS.

>>24807179
"Spider-Man. I am to be addressed as Doctor Doom."

>>24807199
I'd say keep it at 2 Billion risking clos to 5 is close to a 3 1/2 of our total treasury.

>>24807134
Do this while not breaking character.

Also i think we may have a use for our cyber family.

>>24807179
>It may take some time, as other countries may not be happy with you launching so many sattelites

Have them built and launched. We will be transparent about them, we will tell the UN and SWORD they are just deep-space sensor satellites and grant them live access to the sensor feed. (No access to their operation systems of course)

>>24807247
or Lord Von Doom

casually ask about science and inventing, see if he is still making things.

If he mentions anything about our obsession with RICHAAAARDS, Doom should pull out that tape of Richards hitting his kid. Then we say "You are mistaken, sadly. DOOM is not the obsessive one in our little rivalry. Sure, DOOM has instigated Richards at times, and enjoys shouting Richard's name in times of anger, but he is the one who takes it to an unhealthy extreme. DOOM gives this tape to play, that people will know just how far his obsession has gone. Know that this tape is undoctored, unedited, and that DOOM never lies."

And after the tape plays: "DOOM got this tape from an employee at the Baxter Building, afraid to stay there after that incident. DOOM shows this tape publicly, that Richards will be forced to see just what he has become. What he has been for some time. DOOM was sickened when Doom saw the tape. That Richards has sunk so low as to hit his own child, is something Doom cannot forgive. Doom cannot even shout his name in anger anymore. Merely disgust."

>>24807134
Yeah, no. Just hand him the case and congratulate him on whatever puny accomplishment he recently accomplished.
>>24807270
So, a total of 4 billion, 2 each?

>>24807270
You do know that saying that is pretty blatantly referring to the Illuminati, or even SWORD and SHIELD?
Not a good idea.

>>24807304
ONLY if the ask about it first.
We don't wanna be seen as petty.

>>24807304
By he, I mean John Stewart, not Spider-man, of course.

>>24807304
That tape should either being going to Child Services or straight to Sue.
We shouldn't be waving it around like this.
What does it say about us, that we have evidence of domestic violence and child abuse, and that we are doing NOTHING with it, except to slander Richards?
You have obviously not thought this out.

>>24807304
>DOOM got this tape from an employee at the Baxter Building,

Woah! Don't go around TELLING people we have a spy in the building.

>>24807329
So we have evidence of child abuse, that we've been hanging on to, in order to show it on national television, instead of immediately turning it over to either Child Protective Services or to the other parent of the child, Sue?
Have you any idea how petty, and irresponsible, that seems?

>>24807334
Agreed.

>>24807179
"... In the interest of diplomacy and keeping the peace, I will allow that to pass. This time. I have a rather important question to ask you. Where do you see yourself in fifteen years? Still running across rooftops? I know that you are not adequately compensated for your nocturnal activities, and your lack of excessive tools or expensive attire indicates that you do not possess a great deal of income. I know the difference between spandex and kevlar when I see it. This leads me to believe your 'day job' is not sufficient to fund your adventures. You've shown a great deal of ingenuity in the past. I have file footage of the 'spider armor' you wore briefly (thinking of the silvery one from the 80's). So, in all seriousness, where do you want to be in life? What is your retirement plan? I know you are not an ignorant brute or callous youth. You put thought into your actions. You may have heard that I have begun constructing colonies on Mars. One of them is intended as a safe haven for Mutants. Would you be interested in a position as chief of police there? You have extensive experience in preventing crime, and in dealing with police officers from both sides of the law. IF not, or if there are other areas you wish to pursue, other careers you think fit your life better, I'm sure I can find gainful employment for you somewhere."

>>24807334
Agreed.

>>24807304
Yeah, nope

>>24807304
Uh, sure. Hey, Doctor Doom.
"Not much, been working on something big, but if I tell you, you'll probably have it done, immediately."
He leans closer and whispers "You know I can't take you on my own if you flip out, so why are you paying me?"

>>24807348

Hmn.

That IS a point, i guess.

Sure, greater humiliation of reed richards and all... but at what point does the new and improved doom start caring for the laws and procedures of lesser nations instead of doing it the better, more efficient, doom way?

>>24807334
Yeah, you're right. Actually, we should have done it earlier.

>>24807363
Sorry, didn't notice this, working on it now

>>24807393
>so why are you paying me?"
see:
>>24807363

>>24807404
That's fine, just use it as the response to "why are you paying me?"

>>24807393
Ugh. We had several people say that this was a bad idea and to not do it.

>>24807395
>instead of doing it the better, more efficient, doom way?
So the 'better, more efficient Doom Way', as you put it, is to withhold evidence of child abuse from the mother and agencies whose sole purpose is to protect abused children, and instead use it to humiliate the father with no regards as to the child himself?
This is your better way?

You are not worthy of Doom.

>>24807393
A hero working constantly in New York City must have little time for a day job. Your presence makes people less worried about Doom. Lesser men tend to act scared around Doom, so having yourself will calm them.

>>24807393
>"You know I can't take you on my own if you flip out, so why are you paying me?"

"No need to worry, I have no intention of 'flipping out'.
It is simple, I have a reputation and make people nervous. You have a reputation and reassure people.
By having you on hand, people will be less nervous. Having everyone walking on egg shells, afraid that I'm about to launch some sort of attack would defeat my goal of improving public relations."

>>24807393
your here to reassure the people that they have hope,if I were to "flip out," not even the beyonder would survive.

>>24807393
"Two reasons. One, it provides the audience with a needed sense of security, even if it is somewhat false. Second, because you know that, and yet here you are, willing to try anyway. It is an... admirable trait.

>>24807393
>so why are you paying me
"Proper compensation for services rendered. Doom makes sure that all debts are paid in full.
"Your presence calms the fears of the peasantry, as ultimately ineffective resistance would be. Doom cannot do comedy if the audience are too fearful to laugh."

>>24807318
Shield and Sword dont actually know about the Illuminatis existence since they are you know an off the radar cabal of "Saving the world"

Anyway my idea for the cyber family is this we get them to spry "the eyes in the sky are watching" with various
Gps coordinates to sevral
Illuminati Members Houses/Work places attached so now we have some smart people clueing to the fact that something is up with these Characters while maintaining Plausiable Deniability.
ces

>>24807363
"Guess I hadn't really thought much about that. You're right, it doesn't pay too well. It isn't about that, obviously. I mean, don't take this the wrong way, your offer sounds good. Great, even. Something I'm not likely to see again, if I know you, but I have a life here. I have people I couldn't move out. Plus, then everyone would know who I am. Trust me, it's not the kind of thing you'd offer someone who looks like I do outside the costume. Sorry, but it's gotta be a no. Much as I'd want, people rely on me.

>>24807519
>>24807509
"Well, that's... Comforting. I guess. I won't waste it, either. Well, maybe a little.

I hand him the briefcase

"Uhh, thanks. Who are you again? anyway, can you donate it to a children's charity? Do it in your name. It'd be suspicious if I did it, and Jameson would probably say I robbed a bank or something"

They will begin filming soon, sir.

>>24807548
The Illuminati held their last meeting at the SHIELD heli-carrier.

In this timeline they clearly know about them.

>>24807622
They simply held a meeting there. While Director Fury may suspect, Namor stated that they didn't know they considered them the illuminati

>>24807548
>"the eyes in the sky are watching"
That could refer to the Illuminati, SHIELD, or SWORD.
Also, the Illuminati had their last meeting on the SHIELD Helicarrier, and they even called SHIELD troopers and Thor on us at the meeting, so I don't think SHIELD is as ignorant of the Illuminati as you say.

And having the existence of the Illuminati outed when we're in the middle of a Skrull invasion doesn't help us, and if the graffiti gets traced to people from Latveria who have nanobots in their bloodstream, it will lead back to us.

>>24807616
>They will begin filming soon, sir.
Very well. We shall watch the episode as it is filmed and go out onto the stage when it is time.

>>24807664
"Richards did it"

>>24807616
Lets get going then.

>>24807657
>While Director Fury may suspect, Namor stated that they didn't know they considered them the illuminati

Lucia my dear, if director Fury knows who these individuals are, knows they attend secret meetings together and can clearly see they have formed some sort of alliance..... Does it matter if he knows the /name/ of their group?

>>24807616
>Much as I'd want, people rely on me.
"Responsibility. I respect that."

>>24807707
Yes, sir.

You head to your dressing room and dismiss the various accumulated stylists. Donning a fresh cape, you settle down with a bottle of water and begin to watch the show

Most of the first part of the show is Stewart making fun of various American politicians denouncing your actions in Syria. A section on the various heroes activities for today is standard, with him offering commentary. Today seems to be some X-men vs the Juggernaut.

They cut to a break. Half a minute later, you hear a knock at your door.

>>24807664
Lucia already said that nick fury isnt clued in.on it also we kind of just appeared on the helecarrier out of thin air and seamlessly breached their Security without naming our intentions, we are one of Shields most wanted and have been known to take on the avenger and the F4 Simoultaneously so bearing the hulk Thors the biggest gun they have I dont think its surprising they sent him.

As for the possibility the message could refer to shield or sword why do you think i included gps coordinates of their houses?

And if the Illuminati is discovered by the Skrulls this affects us How?? DOOM has already proven more than a match for their Invasion as it is.

>>24807865
Lucia, answer the door.

>>24807885
Nick Fury may not know the name of the group, but he's not stupid or incompetent enough to not be able to put 2 and 2 together to realize that they are part of some kind of powerful alliance.

As for the Skrull invasion, we've only stopped one small Eastern European nation, and a single cruiser that was built for stealth rather than firepower. You underestimate the Skrull.

>>24807950
Yes a single Cruiser and an invasion plot from an empire whos most powerful assest is their ability to Shapshift and to the place of anyone.

The fact we know what they are up to now takes away that advantage.

>>24807950
It is a member of the stage crew
"h..he's on in 5 minutes."

>>24807824
Yes, sir. I apologise for my less than valuable insight. Perhaps you could ask Director fury?

>>24807993
>Yes a single Cruiser and an invasion plot from an empire whos most powerful assest is their ability to Shapshift and to the place of anyone.

This bears mentioning - we should send our Skrullbots BACK to the empire on a captured ship, and try to infiltrate them RIGHT back.

Pfah, puny biology, meet doom's science!

>>24807993
>The fact we know what they are up to now takes away that advantage.
I wouldn't say 'takes away'. Mitigates, maybe, but they are still capable of replacing anyone on the planet. They are sly, clever, have unknown numbers, and advanced firepower. It is not a threat to be understated.

>>24808015
Well grab a board and serf on out in 5minuets 5 seconds

>>24808015
We shall make our way to the stage to make our entrance at the appointed time.

>>24808035
Are we really doing that?

A bit late, but I have to vote against any cryptic messages. People already think we're a villain, and they'll think we're foreshadowing yet another 'evil plot' by us.

>>24808035
no

>>24808047
>>24808035
I wouldn't say 'surf' out there. Stand on the board, perfectly balanced, and gently lean so we drift out there regally, as if Gravity is meaningless to us. Which it is, usually.

We step off the board looking dignified, shake John's hand, and say. "Thank you for the invitation. You probably can't tell, but I'm smiling right now."

>>24808089
>as if Gravity is meaningless to us
Gravity IS meaningless to us; we can float on our own; we don't need a hoverboard.

>>24808089
we can just float anyway. If we did the hoverboard it'd look like we're stealing Valeria's stuff

>>24808119
But hoverboards are cool

>>24808062
Thats why i said we get the cyborg Family to do it, but if we get discovered all it does is drive richards further into paronoia if we allude to(in mockery and sarcasm)
an evil plot.

>>24808158
could someone tell me who the cyborg family are?

>>24808178
They're sleeper agents we created in the first thread by injecting nanobots into a Latverian woman who wanted to visit family that had emigrated to the United States. She visited them, and infected them with the nanobots, making them into cybernetic sleeper agents we can activate when needed.

>>24808178
A Latravian family we converted long ago to reunite with their Mother/Wife

>>24808089
You make your way to the stage left. From here, you can hear them getting everything into position.

A moment later, Jon Stewart is saying
"Welcome back! Now, for the part you've been waiting for. He's no stranger to our city. Some of you may even have seen him around. He's pretty hard to miss. Love or hate him, Here he is, Doctor Victor Von Doom!"

The crowd is pretty mixed, some cheers, some Boos.
You make your way to the stage, Shaking his hand.
"Thank you for the invitation. You probably can't tell, but I'm smiling right now."
That gets a small laugh
"Well, you're right there. Sit down, sit down."
You do so. Your chair creaks, clearly ill designed.

"Welcome to the show. Big fan by the way. Big fan of your recent work. Curing the flu, Stopping everything in Syria, and even going to space! Finally changing your ways?

>>24807363

>>24808325
>ring the flu, Stopping everything in Syria, and even going to space! Finally changing your ways?
working on it. Takes time.

>>24808297
Doom has always worked for the betterment of mankind. This is just the beginning.

>>24808297
"In a sense. My goals are still the same; the prosperity of Latveria, protecting Mankind and Earth, making a stronger and better future.
"I'm not sure when exactly it happened, but I came to realize that I wasn't getting anything done. None of us, the great minds of Humanity, were. We've known that aliens zip between the stars and the great voids separating galaxies for decades, but what have done about it? After the United States sent Apollo to the Moon, what have we done in the decades since them?
"Scientists and engineers, though no equal of DOOM, still world-class and some of the greatest of history, have developed stun rays and autonomous robots, but have they made their way into the hands of the average police officer, or done anything to bring peace to Africa and the Middle East?
"I realized, that if I was to be making my mark on history as I always said I was going to do, make a better future that my god-daughter could be proud to live in, it was time to stop wasting my time and actually get to work."

>>24808297
>"Welcome to the show. Big fan by the way. Big fan of your recent work. Curing the flu, Stopping everything in Syria, and even going to space! Finally changing your ways?
Laugh slightly. "Not as big a change as you think. These are things I've been working on for quite a while. Always one setback or another. Problems with nay-sayers, or other responsibilities, or attempts to assassinate me. You know how it is. You intend to get something done, and then LIFE happens and you get distracted, and fifteen years later you remember all the things you wanted to get done. Well, I'm finally in a position to begin moving things from the drawing board to the real world. I take it you've been following my Mars colonies? I'm quite proud of them. Is there anything you'd like to know specifically about them? Any questions at all, I'll be glad to answer. And don't worry, I won't bore you with the technical parts. And don't feel limited to the colonies, either. My new university, my interventions in Syria and [Name of skrull-controlled country that escapes me at the moment]. The food donations I've begun assembling to ship to impoverished regions of Africa, I welcome any questions you have on any subject."

That should leave him enough room to ask anything while guiding him to the subjects we want to talk about, so we don't seem to dominate the conversation.

>>24808477
Might want to include Latveria's complete disarming of all of her nuclear weapons, and our space mining program.

And our war was with Skrull-controlled Slovakia.

>>24808433

seams to open us up to personal questions better left unsaid.

yes

Surprisingly, you get some applause
"That's...pretty eloquent. Most people only really know you from the whole shooting lasers around and blowing things up side we used to see. Oh, right, your school! How could I forget? What's that all about? Going for even more of a rustic feel over there?

>>24808433
I like this one better.

>>24806648
DOOM does not cave in to the audience. We go in with it or without it.

>>24808550
"Magic is an untapped resource, perhaps more dangerous than some consider mutants. A gifted child could summon a demon that destroys half a city. Doom has made sure that the talent is properly harnessed, that they do not endanger the rest of the human race."

>>24808582
Too late dud the majority of us already decided to have a series of glamours.

>>24808585
This

>>24808585
"Good point, not sure that's something anyone wants. Really would have though Doctor Strange would have done it first. Can you teach me some stuff?

>>24808550
"Quite the opposite, really. We live in an amazing world. Men like Iron Man and Arch Angel fly about all day. Ordinary looking men like Spider-Man can easily lift entire busses with their bare hands. But for some reason, nobody seems to take the concept of 'magic' seriously. It is a viable field of study, but it is one that has not modernized well. No major breakthroughs have happened in centuries, and I attribute this to the secretive nature of its practitioners. What the Renaissance did for science, I wish to do for magic. I want to bring it into the 21st century, bring it into the public eye. Make it a useful part of modern life. Instead of dragging us back, I wish to drag magic forward so that it gets the same respect as science. Men like Doctor Strange and Brother Voodoo do just as much for the world as Tony Stark or Hank Pym, yet go largely ignored. They deserve the same respect and recognition. And if we can use magic to heal crippling injuries Science hasn't gotten around to yet, or accurately predict natural disasters? So much the better."

>>24808550
"Magic is a real force, as I can attest. It would be the height of folly as a scientist to reject the existence of magic when the evidence is so overwhelming.
"The Latverian Institute of Technology and Thaumaturgy seeks to bring back magic as a respected field of study, and not the domain of charlatans and con-men."

>>24808647
"DOOM REQUIRES A TOP HAT"

>>24808550
>>24808550
Magic, it has uses (take off mask skit here, Richards!, Spider man mask, John's face, our face before the , and back to the mask.)

long range teleportation for one (have the mask wink)
>>24808647
(very simple illusion)

>>24808477
Speaking of food donations, the biggest cause of famine in Africa is not because the lack of donations. In fact there's billions of dollars going around, but most of them just never end up in the peasants' hand (only less than 10% made it). And the food that got to the populace made people reliant on international aid. What we should do is send some servo guards to clean up the warlords and corrupted governments while playing international politics carefully. After that we shall take control of the diamond mines and raise the working conditions of the miners all the while introducing better agricultural techniques and working side by side with the UN and all the *without borders.

This shall hopefully gain us more prestge on the international scene while securing us a steady source of income.

>>24808660
Actually this because holy crap!

>>24808647
"If you have time to learn, certainly. Doctor Strange is a very busy man. He does more in a day to protect the planet than the entirety of the Avengers does in a week, and he does it all out of sight, making sure that the things he fights are never seen and never have a chance to cause any damage. His efficiency is something even I have to admire."

Do we have a 'cleaning spell'? Something that can remove dirt or stains quickly? If so, we can demonstrate it by breaking a pen on his shirt then teaching him how to whisk it away without a trace.

>>24808647
"Doctor Strange, is, of course, quite busy as Sorcerer Supreme. And while his resources ARE considerable, they are not the equal of a prosperous nation-state such as Latveria.
"And to be quite honest, from the headaches that the Headmistress has been complaining about already, I can see why Doctor Strange has stayed away from trying to teach rooms full of rambunctious children.
"As for magic tricks, a spark of magic is needed, but we can see about a ward or two, lucky rabbit's foot aside."

>>24808660
Hah, got someone telling me we haven't got time for that. Plus we're out of rabbits. Guess we should meet up sometime?

And yeah, You're right. I mean, Doctor Strange is one of my favorite heroes. Met the guy a few times, signed some stuff for me, but everyone always gives the credit to the Avengers or the Fantastic 4. Speaking of them, There was one slightly unusual student of your school. Was that your idea?

>>24808704
Which is why I suggested having the donations delivered exclusively by Doombots with portal tech who would stay, protect the rural villages from gangs and warlords, and in time maybe deliver valuable instruction on agriculture, hygiene, medicine, etc.

And of course, we need to get around to greening the continent. Mars can be our test bed for re-fertilizing dead soil and large-scale immigration.

>>24808822
"If you speak of whom I believe you are speaking of , THAT CHILD'S wishes led to the founding of that Academy"

might need revising.

>>24808759
A simple localized time reversal spell would do the trick, sir

>>24808822
"I take it you mean Valeria, my God-Daughter. She actually helped design the school you know. Quite the prodigy. Both I and her parents are very proud of her. She has a very curious mind, she wants to learn everything and know as much as possible. And she can do it, too. She heard a rumor that I knew magic as well as science, and asked to learn. Those early lessons while I babysat her are what eventually led to the school being founded in record time."

-pause here to chuckle slightly-

"Her parents were hesitant at first, but she managed to reason with them, eventually. Especially after Doctor Strange looked over the lesson plans and admitted they were a good starting point. But attending was really her idea."

>>24808822
"I don't talk about the lives of school children tv." (give him the best move it along tone of voice)

>>24808822
"Actually, it was that student's wish which led to the creation of the school. She even assisted in designing the school's main building.
"Her parent's were reluctant at first, but she eventually convinced them of the premiere education she would receive there, and Doctor Strange's endorsement of the curriculum allayed their fears."

>>24808869
Is it easy enough to cast that a mundane could do it, or does it require the spark of magic?

>>24808759
or we could demonstrate it by cleaning up the mess he makes when he spit takes. It's one of his standard gags

>>24808950
>>24808997
Of course, I heard something like that. How come I didn't get an invite?
Anyway, what is it with you and Richards? College rivalry?"

If I may mention something, sir, reports indicate the fantastic 4 have left a restaraunt they were at, and are driving somewhere at great speed

>>24809044
Given time, sir. It would require some study.

>>24809137
>college rivalry
"You could say that. We've always had our differences, and we are both very driven, ambitious men of science. Though I at least call myself by my actual name, instead of something ridiculous as 'Mr. Fantastic'. Honestly, he sounds like he should be doing a show at Las Vegas with a name like that."

>>24809137
You wish to go back to School John? An admirable choice, but to rob the masses of your televised charm? I wouldn't dare.

>>24809137
keep an eye on them. Still no luck in the hunt for Lyja?
And then chuckle "Something like that. We were pretty good friends in collage actually, then one day the pair of us were working in the lab one day, and well, there is a reason I wear this mask."

>>24809137
Ah yes, and Lucia, could you inform the Spiderman of this, knowing Richard's he'll run right here without any regards for other people safety.

>>24809284
If he asks to remove our masks, Our glimmers should be Richards, Colbert, stark, our mask again, and finally Ronaiah Tuiasosopo.

Oh, and we have to use, "No need to get Bent out of shape," when Richards busts in.

>>24809390
Would glamours be recorded on film? I don't want us to take off our mask and have the audiences at home only see our real, scarred faces and the studio audience laughing uproariously. That would kind of detract from the humor.

>>24809137
"It's a long story. It does date back to college though. I once asked Richards to assist me in building a portal between dimensions. He refused, which led to a series of events culminating in my face becoming horribly disfigured. Hence the mask. It's not entirely a fashion statement'

-pause for applause-

"We've been disagreeing over almost everything since. Somewhere along the way, things escalated rather severely, the UN has gotten involved more than once. I've been trying to mend fences and build bridges with him, but I think he's takin it all a lot more personally than is healthy."

>>24809390
Oh god yes, I forgot all about when Stewart blamed everything on him.

You wish to go back to School John? An admirable choice, but to rob the masses of your televised charm? I wouldn't dare.
A genuine laugh from the audience. It seems they may be warming to you
>>24809247
You wish to go back to School John? An admirable choice, but to rob the masses of your televised charm? I wouldn't dare.
Another laugh, he has to actually wait a second before he can get a word in

Ah, I see, he got the best superhero name, and you couldn't think of anything, right?

Not exactly. You see >>24809450

"Hah, Escalated is a good word for it I guess. One final question, and I'm sure it's been on everyone's minds. Are you going to take off the mask?"

It seems they are parking downstairs, sir. I sent spiderman at them

>>24809559
If we show our real face I will hunt down every person in this thread and kill them.

>>24809559
Stall for a bit before going with >>24809284

Let them interrupt us. Let them assault us on national television. Let them assault a sovereign head of state on national television.

>>24809572
How about an illusion of removing it, and then all the glamour ideas? Actually removing it with Richards inbound seems very unwise.

>>24809572
>killing pieces of our own mind

>>24809636
If Otto Octavius could do it, Doom could.

>>24809559
Sure do this>>24809390

>How this should have gone
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7wVO8JxSg0

>>24809559
"That is... A bit personal, don't you think? you don't ask an amputee disfigured in a horible car wreck to show off his stump, do you? Besides, I have put a lot of effort into building an image, this persona I wear. For all intents and purposes, I am not wearing a mask. That is my face. The burned flesh underneath is just a bit of internal flesh, not that important."

That should be our answer if the glamours can't be viewed via TV.

Also: john freauently has multi-hour interviews which he posts online, and only shows the highlights on air. That's why he never broadcasts live.

>>24809695
technically this was multihour

>>24809559
>Are you going to take off the mask?
And now do the fake faces skit. We'll do glamours of us removing it to only reveal a different face beneath.
According to this >>24809390

>>24809559
If the Fantastic Four burst in though, the mask goes back on in a flash. And then we recline gracefully and greet them.

>>24809695
I was almost certain that our illusions create magical light images, because they can fool Iron Man's cameras.

>>24809713
As you are about to reach for it, Richards bursts through the studio doors in a suit. Spiderman catches up a moment later
"He wouldn't listen, but technically this wasn't in my contract anyway"
"What are you doing here, Doom? Everyone, get out! He's dangerous"
There is a little shuffling, but nobody moves
The rest of the fantastic 4 enter, all in various forms of dinnerwear on. Storm has a girl with him
Reed, this is stupid. He's not done anything wrong!
"Yet"

>>24809733
You are correct, sir.

>>24809859
Create a magic ball of light. Make it seem as if we're doing some huge attack. Make appropriate grunts.
Throw the ball of light at Richards.

It contains the letter Valeria wrote for Richards.

>>24809859
Richards, don't get bent out of shape, I promise I won't attack the studio audience on international television.

I'm not sure if the correct response would be to HAM IT UP for comedy or Be nasty and expose Richards on national television

I'll leave it to you gents

Be light on spidey guys, he tried.

>>24809859
"I'm sorry, I don't believe you have tickets gentlemen. Or are they surprise guests Stewart? I say, they aren't a choice I'd approve of. Pity, I was about to take off my mask for you all too..."

Make them beg for it, but humiliate them first.

>>24809927
Seconding This

if Richards gets nasty
>>24809906
make sure when it comes into contact with him some illusion-esque version of confetti and streamers pop everywhere

>>24809859
"Well. This completely ruins the mood.
"Richards, really, there is no need to get so bent out of shape. Ah yes. Your daughter has a letter for you; here.
"Now, Jon, where was I? Ah yes, you wished to see underneath my mask. As you have been a gracious host, DOOM shall grant this request."
And do the glamour skit, but skip Richards; instead use the likeness of John Oliver.

>>24809859
Look at Richards, look back to john. "As I said, he seems to take our running feud very personally. You're lucky, he used a door this time. When he does this in my home, he usually knocks a hole in the wall. To say nothing of the hassles of modifying Latverian air traffic after his nuclear-powered flyig convertible breaks into our airspace without filig a flight plan and heads straight towards my home. Castle or not, you have to worry about the kind of mess that can make, especially when he does it on a monthly basis for over half a decade."

>>24809953
>>24809906
I vote against using the ball of light. Far too likely that there will be collateral damage, and the studio audience is right over there, with no shields or defense fields in place to contain Johnny's flames.

>>24809906
I'd go for something more along the lines of

"Ah, Richards, I have something for you..."

Reach into cape pocket ominously.

Pull out the letter.

>>24809997
Maybe we should just do over-exaggerated gestures and then just we just toss a letter at him like a card

File: 1368481122569.jpg-(13 KB, 252x200, doom mug.jpg)

13 KB JPG

>>24809906
No, no, we should lounge back in our chair like its our throne, raise our Daily Show guest mug like a goblet and say something like

"Ah, Reed. How good of you to come. I do hope you didn't have to wait outside too long for your tickets, I've heard New York is quite chilly at this time of year. Mr. Stewart,may I believe you know the Fantastic Four"

Sip from the mug.

>>24810008
probably make it look like we're gonna pull out a gun

And then bring up the letter

for maximum hilarity bring out a Hand-Mirror and then pull the letter out of our backpocket or something while looking at ourself

>>24810031
>Reed
NO
STOP
STOP

>>24809636
>>24809652
We've actually done that.

We destroyed parts of our psyche we considered a weakness.

>>24810053
Such narcissism does not befit DOOM.

>>24810031
>Reed
NO
RICHARDS!
IT'S ALWAYS RICHARDS!

>>24810057
It's RICHAAAAAAAAAAARDS

Looks like We'll have to condense this a little

>>24810031
Surely you mean richards

>>24809963
Works for me. Also, have we scanned this girl for being a skrull?

>>24810079
We could be doing it for irony though

RIIIIICHAAAAAARDS thinks we're incredibly vain and narcissistic does he not?

aside from the mirror thing [which I really just pulled from Tyrell Badd from Ace Attourney], We should definitely do the fake-out pull letter like a gun thing

Don't worry about it Spider-Man. You were hired to protect the audience and crew from me, not serve as a bouncer.

>>24810103
That's... some remarkably paranoid thinking. Very Doom-like. I commend you sir.

>>24809963
Sounds funny.

Can we all agree on something? OP's gonna have a meltdown

>>24809963
Seconded.

Also, scan the girl. If she's the Skuull we've been looking for, put a tail on her when they leave, we'll grab her later.

>>24810129
Well, if it is we could just say "Ah, hello Lyja, and then everyone was completely distracted."

>>24810192
Let's not start a shoot our with a studio audience full of innocent bystanders right here.

Tail her and grab her later.

>>24810227
Fair enough.

How piercing of a stare can we make?
Scare the shit out of Johnny's woman.

>>24810280
All of our stares are piercing

>>24810124
>aside from the mirror thing [which I really just pulled from Tyrell Badd from Ace Attourney], We should definitely do the fake-out pull letter like a gun thing

Actually, if we do the letter thing, we should ask john to sign it - so the fantastic four have some memorabilia to take home with them.

Or, perhaps, better yet, ask him to read it.

>>24810298
This, make Jon read it

>>24810298
seco->>24810330
Third?

>>24810298
>Or, perhaps, better yet, ask him to read it.

It's a personal letter Valaria wrote to her family.

Having it read out on TV would just be weird.

>>24810298
>ask him to read it.
And break Valeria's trust in us?
No, I think not.

>>24810124
>We should definitely do the fake-out pull letter like a gun thing
No, we shouldn't, because as stated before, there is literally nothing between the studio audience and the fight that would break out.

>>24810330
>>24810298

Do you asshats know what a letter is supposed to be? A private thing only to be read by the Recipitant

>>24810338
>It's a personal letter Valaria wrote to her family.
>Having it read out on TV would just be weird.

This is true, which is why I suggested having john SIGN it instead. plus, it involves the show.... and we can goad richards into reading it on air, and making HIM look like the fool for rushing all the way over here

>>24810298
I'm not sure that's a good idea. Would Valeria be okay with the whole nation knowing the contents of a letter to her parents?

>>24810298
No, just do >>24809963
Its got support, no one seems to mind it at all.

>>24810330
>>24810337
Do you even think before posting?
You'd have Jon Stewart read a private letter from Valeria to her family on international television?
You'd betray her trust in us to make sure that the letter is kept secure and delivered only to its intended recipients?

How much of a douchebag do you want Doom to look like? Because you're doing a pretty good job of making us out to be a terrible godfather in front of a world-wide audience.

>>24810124
No, don't do that, do this >>24809963

Ok So

This
>>24809963
>>24810126
- Scan Johnny's Girl discretely
- Ask Jon to sign Valeria's letter [the outside of it] Bonus points if RICHARDS! rips it up on camera for whatever reason

whoops post cut-off

Is this the general consensus guys?

>>24809988
I think this is the way to go, backed by an exasperated sigh. He just proved the point we made not two minutes ago.

>>24810397
We could include >>24809988
Making a not-so-subtle reference to how Richards emulates the 9/11 hijackers on a regular basis is a good way for Doom to insult Richards in a way he can't refute.

>>24810397
>>24810439

So some combination of all of this?

Probably the comment about this shit happening all the time, telling spidey it's all good, Glamour trick [scanning girl covertly while everyone is distracted by glamour trick]

and MAYBE the letter signing thing, otherwise just hand it off to Richards discretely

>>24810365
>I suggested having john SIGN it instead

You can't lie about your retarded ideas when they're posted on the interweb for the world to see.

>Or, perhaps, better yet, ask him to read it.

"Richards, really, there is no need to get so bent out of shape. Ah yes. Your daughter has a letter for you; here"
He stretches a hand across the room and snatches it out of your hand, then gives it to Susan
Now, Jon, where was I? Ah yes, you wished to see underneath my mask. As you have been a gracious host, DOOM shall grant this request."
The audience loves it, There are even some dense individuals filming it on their phones
I use this time to sneak over and scan Storm's friend

"What are you even doing? TV appearances? He's dangerous! Why would you want to be in the same room as him?"

"Reed, this was a bad idea" Susan says

"Shut up. I need everyone to get out. He's going to start shooting, I know it! This was a trap for us!"

"Richards, the world does not revolve around you."

*Wow audience with our illusion face gag*

>>24810609
It works

>>24810596
But that's wrong, you see.

I invited Spiderman here, in case you shown up, to protect the audience in case you decided to bust through the hall like the Kool Aid Man.

Susan, Grimm, I thank you for keeping him from doing that.

Spiderman looks round a little awkwardly, and Jon stewart seems to be doing that thing where he looks at the sheets as though there was something helpful on them

>>24810658
I'm not sure it'll come off through the mask, sir. I recommend exasperated gestures

>>24810596
>>24810609
No, no, go on.
Doom-Oliver: Hello, Jon! How does this dashing example of British whim and wit strike you?
Doom-Colbert: Hahaha! Never let it be said that Doom is without a sense of humor. And you, Mr. Colbert, are welcome to take a shot at DOOM!"*eyebrow-waggle*
Doom-Stark: I really have nothing against Stark, though years of my own research show that red does NOT make you go faster.
Doom-Doom: But enough of that. You shall see beneath the Mask of DOOM
Doom-Ronaiah: Hello Jon, miss me?

>>24810711
No, if Spidy thinks we're dragging him into this to manipulate the situation, he'll say something.

That's not true, saying that is just asking to be called out on live TV.

>>24810711

This. SO MUCH this. Or something like it

"That's not it at all. I invited spider man here to PROTECT the audience in case you or other heroes decided to crash the party and felt like blowing through a wall to do so. "

"In your hatred for me, you seem to have forgotten that I am a man of the people. I've found running a country does wonders for patience and tolerance; you should try it"


""

We should try to make Richard drop his spaghetti

>>24810768
John: Tuiasosopo!!!!!!!

>>24810804
Huh. I thought "Protect the audience" was in Spiderman's contract.

Was it?

Okay.


"But that's wrong, you see. I came here to talk.

I even invited Spiderman here, to ensure that the audience had nothing to fear from my demeanor.

Susan, Grimm, I thank you for keeping him from bursting through the walls like a certain Kool Aid Man."

>>24810711
Nah. lets not do that.
>>24810766
Just sound utterly bored "Sure, by Richards"

>>24810885
Stretchy spaghetti everywhere...

>>24810924
even if it wasn't, it seems like something he should be doing anyway

>>24810766
I think it best if we ignore Richards right now. Let him rant and fume in the corner, held back by Susan, Johnny, and Benjamin.

Continue speaking amiably with Stewart and Spider-Man.

>>24810596
>"Shut up. I need everyone to get out. He's going to start shooting, I know it! This was a trap for us!"

Put our hand over our mouth, and try not to laugh.

Our over-arching goal was to make richard's own paranoia destroy him... and we may not need to bait him into doing so.

>>24810924
lets not do this.

>>24810596
Oh, yes. Definitely time for the burn written here:
>>24809988
He's crucifying himself on national television. We're just handing him the nails.

"Oh, before I forget, I intended to stop by the Baxter Building after we finished here. To deliver that letter, and to speak to Mister Storm about a job proposal."

Can we do "DOOM ARMOR ,CAST OFF"

It'll probably alleviate the tension

Continue the interview.

"Ignore Richards, you can feed his ego next week."

>>24810924

"That's not it at all. I invited spider man here to PROTECT the audience in case you or other heroes decided to crash the party and felt like blowing through a wall to do so. "

"....I think I may have made an error in judgement, here"

"Yes, Reed, you did. Now can we go back to My BIRTHDAY? Susan says

There seems to be audible disappointment. Even Stewart seems to sigh a little

I seem to be getting positive skrull readings, sir.

"Now, Jon, will you and Colbert be attempting to run for the Presidency once Mr. Obama's term expires?"

We could always write them up a check for wherever they were eating just to show up Richards , doubles as opportunity to make a little note about Johnny's girl is a skull if we decide to go that route

>>24811246
nah just send message to ambasady to pick up a flower bouquet an send it to they tower

>>24811220
Storm's girlfriend, Lyja. His girlfriend is always Lyja, whether he knows it or not.

>>24811250
Doesn't she have a bunch of super powers? Taking her down won't be easy.

>>24811370
Don't need to take her down, evidence is all we require

Takedown or capture is a bonus

>>24811312
Along with a letter of apology even if this isn't our fault at all.

>>24811370
how about send the info to SWORD so they will do the dirty work?

>>24811370
It's not like we're going to go after half cocked.

We'll trail her and make preparations.

>>24811425

didn't we want to recruit her for something, anyway?

I think we had other plans besides capturing her. Isn't she kind of a human sympathizer?

>>24811425
Very well.

I'll have to leave it here for tonight. I'll be back tomorrow
Actually, would running from a couple of hours earlier until whatever this time now is for you work for anyone?
I'll read any responses in the archive. Goodnight

I also noted increased blood alcohol levels in Richards. This may have something do with his outburst

I also apologize for not doing Stewart well enough.

>>24811403
Best way to do it is to formally inform SHIELD and the Avengers that while we were in New York City we received a positive Skrull reading.
Since we can't send Latverian forces into sovereign American territory, they will have to look for the Skrull.

>>24811464
Yeah, in canon she sucks all of the skrull into the negative zone and then stays there to "find herself" we should help her find herself here. Plus, we might actually make it possible for her and Johnny to have a kid.

i wonder how long until he turn him self in to a villain (consider the What if comics probably very quickly)

>>24811464
We could always try reason first.

In fact, there is an obvious option we could try.

She is MADLY in love with Johnny. One of the big obstacles between them is the obvious Human/Skrull thing.

Skulking around as an enemy spy, being forced to hide who she really is or be arrested, being seen as an enemy by the man she loves and his family.

We can give her a way out of this. The other Skrull defectors don't need to hide themselves, they don't need to fear arrest by Human authorities. They wear the Latvarian uniform and serve the interests of Earth.

She can have the same.

We can give her a normal life on Earth and she can pursue a normal romance with the Torch.
Instead of pretending to be someone else just to get close to him, she can call him and invite him over for a drink.

We'll assign her to the NYC embassy. She'll be in walking distance and have regular working contact with the F4.

for tomorrow, we might want to mention that at the next UN meeting we will be presenting something important, and flatter the audience in doing so.

>>24811770
I support this.

>>24811489
Ah, you did alright

>>24806997
I don't watch it but from what i gather all the news is real the commentary though is an exaggeration and mockery of news pundits on both sides of the political spectrum. It is a comedy that shows news and is about real news.

This thread has made me want rule 34 of Lucia Von Bardas, does this make me a bad person?

>>24811770
>In fact, there is an obvious option we could try.

That is incredibly devious and fantastic

>>24811770
Should we have one of our Skrull agents make contact with her, or have it be done by Lucia or a Doombot?

Also we really need to start debriefing the Skrulls who defected: how united is the Skrull Empire, and were they sent as an infiltration and scout force, or is there a bigger invasion force on the way?

If this is after the Skrull throneworld is destroyed and the Empire shattered, then they are significantly less of a threat compared to a united Skrull Empire that controls the entirety of the Andromeda Galaxy.

>>24811770
But we don't want F4 to know that she's working for us or that she's a skrull. That'd defeat the whole point of having her on out side.

>>24812198
well she can do what ever she likes in her free time, no need to announce to entire world that she is a skrull and if anybody find/ask us about her we can say she was past of slovenia skrull that decide to work for us

>>24812198
What did you want to use her for?
I want to use her as a wedge between Johnny and Richards. Richards won't accept Johnny having a Skrull girlfriend or having her inside the Baxter Building.
This could set up a rift between the two as Richards' paranoia gets the better if him like it did this night.

>>24812198
>But we don't want F4 to know that she's working for us or that she's a skrull. That'd defeat the whole point of having her on out side.

Why would that be a problem? We want her because she is/was a high ranking Skrull officer, she's an intel goldmine.
Who cares if people know we employ another Skrull? We already employ hundreds that defected to us.

>>24812293
>I want to use her as a wedge between Johnny and Richards.

We don't need to do anything there. She loves the Torch and will pursue him on her own.

If she enjoys success, you know Richards will take a bitch-fit over it.

"Johnny! She's a Skrull AND she works for DOOM!"

We don't even need to get involved, just sit back and let it happen.

Capcha: wife orporaek
Capcha hears wedding bells for the two.

Guy who suggest the talk show the other thread here: Stewart wasn't what I had in mind, but that went about as well as I expected.

Which is -dare I say?- Fantastically. Good Job.

I like the thoughts with Lyja. Don't manipulate anything, remain honest and above board. If anything, act mildly surprised that she and the Torch are dating when/if Reed confronts us. "Really? You think the fact that she works for me would deter him. good for them." And then we return to something 'more important'.

While we're in New York anyway, we should see if we can contact Doc Ock and the Shocker. The good Doctor we already had some business with to convince him to assist us, and the Shocker is one of the current cons most likely to take our offer of a second chance.

He takes the bait, we dress him up and show that we're legit, others flock to us. Especially the tech guys, but we shouldn't turn down anybody who passes a pych test (or is willing to accept help).

We're DOOM. We can accept the huddled masses easily.

Hell, that could be our recruiting slogan: A poster of us standing proud with the word 'Come to Latveria, and accept your DOOM!'

There's absolutely nothing that can go wrong with that plan.

>>24812718

>accept your DOOM!

Alright, I'm going to agree with that.

BECAUSE it's a bad idea. This will serve as a Litmus test for our followers: Anyone with the balls to point out that it's a bad idea should be commended.

Occasionally we drop a bad idea with the good to see who's paying attention and sort things out. With them looking for flaws to prove their intelligence and loyalty, they'll catch any actual mistakes we make.

We can then pass this off as a test.

DOOM is never wrong, after all.

>>24812718
>'Come to Latveria, and accept your DOOM!'

This is the best slogan in all the multiverse.

>>24812803

Kinda what I was aiming for, yeah.

>>24812820

Of course. DOOM excels in all things, including advertisement. You should hear the cat-food Jingle DOOM composed back in college, sales rose by fifteen percent!

Claims of subliminal hypnotism are falsehoods directed in jealousy to both DOOM and Meow Mix.

I have an idea for a new invention of ours: The Modular Power Armor.
Essentially, Its a generic power armor line for superheroes. The base suit would be a lightweight armor that increases strength, speed and durability a bit. The real trick is that it is designed to work with or augment the superheroes already existing powers, either through customization of the base armor or the armor itself or it somehow auto-customizing to its user. So for example spiderman would get stronger, more durable, and have his spidey sense enhanced. Susan's forcefield would be enhanced and the suit would turn invisible with her, ect.

>>24812894
or you know for the mutant police force on mares , because they don't like bots

>>24812894
This could also be used to feed into Richards' paranoia. He would obviously be wary of any tech we give to heroes and thus would be a vocal opponent of adopting it. All we have to do is make it independent from us and not laying any traps for those who would use it against us. We could also use the armor for use with the students of our magical academy, after all magic can be dangerous, as we have been recently reminded.

I also suggest that we put more time and resources into finding a cure for Ben Grimm's condition as a cure freely given would also feed into Richards' paranoia.

>>24812894
I like this. Should spend extra time on Spiderman's though. Poor dude can never catch a break.

>>24813231
yes it should also have 2 pairs of robot limbs to go with his motif.

>>24813362
soft ones to hold people so he can sue both arms to web swing.

>>24813129
mares Mars other wise good idea.

>>24812718
We should visit the good Doctor before we leave NYC. If I recall correctly he politely refused our offer on continuing his energy research. Maybe a face to DOOM chat could change his mind.

>>24813565
>If I recall correctly he politely refused our offer on continuing his energy research
He specifically said that he will need to be convinced in person before he accepts.
Lucia was supposed to be attempting to arrange a face-to-face meeting at a place of Octavius' choosing.

>>24811489
Fine by me.

>>24807865
>Stewart making fun of various American politicians denouncing your actions in Syria
I'd really like to hear this part.
Aside from the fact that we're basically treating the Syrian Army and the rebels like a bunch of unruly schoolchildren, and demolish any inroads that Islamic extremists were making with the populace by having Latverian UN Peacekeepers distribute food and medical aid, what can they complain about?

>>24811770
I love this idea. We should do it asap. Between Lyja working for us and the extreme sports show we want to give Johnny, Mister Mediocre is going to be chewing the walls in frustration.

We need to see i there are jobs we can offer Susan and Ben. Something more important than "sit around the house all day and wait for Ruchards to drag them off into danger". Grimm is an excellent pilot whose rocky body has ruined his chances to fly normal planes or have a normal life. We need to perfect a cure that allows him to turn his powers on and off at a moment's notice. Also, we need to give him a standing passport to the mutant colony on Mars, where looking like a boulder wouldn't be that unusual. Not sure what Susan's education and life goals are. Fairly certain she is a bit constrained and under-appreciated as a housewife.

While we're in New York, we need to visit The Morlocks in their tunnels. The mutant colony could use a larger population, and they could use free health care, abundant food, free education, and productive jobs in a society that accepts their differences.

>>24812198
The point if having her on our side is to drag Johnny into the 'doom's not such a bad guy after all' camp.

>>24812803
Agreed. We don't want or need yes-men. We need people smart enough to know that we should be in charge, but brave enough to speak up about bad ideas. Like the kid in the story of The Emperor's New Clothes.

>>24815202
>Susan's education and life goals are
I thought we were going to help Namora bone the shit out her.

>> Morlocks

yea I am sure they would appreciate a personal invitation.


>>24812803
this so much

On the point of Octavius: we need to get him some counseling. I believe half of his issues stem from the sudden and traumatic nature in which he gained his powers, and the fact that he never received the psychological support needed to deal with that sudden life-shift. We need to offer him that support.

We also need to make that a new class at the Doomstadt Institute of Technology. Train psychologists to help people deal with newly-acquired powers. Especially mutants. They get their powers during puberty, which is a confusing, stressful, and psychologically damaging enough without suddenly having to deal with the ability to smell other people's thoughts or squirt acid from your eyes or whatever. We can talk to Xavier about these students working internships at his school to build up experience.

>>24815327
Yes, but that's what we're doing for Namor. We need to make the whole operation mutually beneficial to all involved except Richards. We've driven a wedge between her and richards. Now we need to lure he out of the house so she can socialize and build a life away from her abusive husband. Namor can take it from there.

One thing about the Marvel universe I don't understand: if Thor and the Asgard are a tangible, real existence, then do the monotheistic religions simply say that 'those polytheistic religions are just confusing superhumans with gods'?
What does the Vatican, and imams and rabbis, have to say about the confirmed existence of extraterrestrial life that not only lives beyond the edges of the Milky Way, but also can trace their history back well before the Great Flood on Earth?

>>24816415
It's never talked about. One person straight up tried to ask Thor one time, his response was 'Reality is very large, and quantumly indistinct. Maybe everyone is right. I can tell you my existence does not conflict with or negate your beliefs, but that's all I may say on the matter."

Really, they'd have to be REALLY careful about their wording, because people could turn around and use the same wording to dismiss their religion as just ancient supers showing off.

But it's telling that in the Council of Godheads (Hercules comics) all the non-monotheistic pantheons are represented. Greek, Hindu, Mexo-american, African, et. al. Does that mean that the monotheistic gods aren't there, or that they're just ego-maniacs who can't play well with others?

>>24815405
While we've got Spider-Man's attention, we should ask him his opinion, both professional and personal, of Otto Octavius. What makes him tick. Any hot-button topics to avoid speaking of.

>>24816582

We should also tell him that the offer (or at least, a similar one) will remain on the table if his circumstances or his mind changes.

Also, "The suit has noting to do with my opinion of you, Peter."

Because there's no fucking way we haven't investigated his identity due to his association with the FF.

Shit, with Doom's resources I could give you his life story based off the hints he dropped today.

I don't know about augmenting powers, but it should be custom-tailored to not impede powers and work with one's fighting style. Spider-man's should be high-flexibility and light-weight. I'm thinking ballistic fabric layers woven together with artificial myomer-style muscles, with tiny micro-force-field generators woven throughout. The muscle-suit would conform to his body and augment his strength, and the micro-forcefields would create an invisible skin-tight energy shell to distribute impacts and energy discharges. Throw in a hologram inducer and some color-changing tech for a stealth mode. If we can lease Octavius' robo-arm tech or make an improved version (lighter, stronger, faster, easier to conceal, Octavius' arms were designed in the 70's using off-the-shelf parts, certainly we can push the envelope much further. And put Stark's 'Iron Spider' costume to shame)

Octavius' tech has been copied and improved before. Note 'Carlyle Calamari'. Pic related.

Throw in a small police scanner, built in cell-service, and a rebreather for filtering air and extending one's time underwater, and you've got a winner.

As long as we're in New York, let's stop by Phineas Mason's current hidey-hole. Make The Tinkerer the same offer we're making Octavius. Lab, funding, salary, freedom. Pretty sweet deal.

>>24816694
>>24817111
I like this idea. What say we provide the armor to Spider-Man free of charge, but do it through a shell company? Have Lucia create a new company, specifically for creating law-enforcement products. Long range tasers, effective body armor, etc. Have a proxy call Spidey in for a 'consultation', and see if we can get him wearing a suit.

Let Spidey serve as a 'test bed' to see if it is feasible, and since he actually has a much more active fighting style, and more frequent adventures, than most other supers, we should listen to his comments on potential improvements.

Not only does he become our de-facto spokesman about the quality of our tech, but we can also gain valuable data on his fighting style and powers, and those of his opponents. If all goes well, we'll have half the Super community purchasing protective gear from us, and we can expand into Police, Swat, and Military armors as well. Stark may be afraid to publicize his technology and protect civil servants, but Doom has no such fear.

>>24817592
But would Spidey feel that we're manipulating him if we try to hide our connections like that?
Being open and upfront about everything has worked well for us thus far, throwing everyone off-balance and making them dance to our tune, rather than the other way around.

>>24817628
>But would Spidey feel that we're manipulating him if we try to hide our connections like that?

Our purposes would better be served here by inspiring him to create such a suit himself, and offering our input as to how best perfect it - that way we get the guidance, but he gets the credit.

We should do something ... dual purpose and sneaky, like asking for his help to make a powered walker/leg exoskeleton(as a gift to xavier), as a ruse(which we admit) to seeing if he's still got the spirit of an inventor and a maker... and then suggest he try making one for himself.
Nothing too fancy, just a collaboration between one scientist and another.

>>24817628
Hmmm.... Good point. Maybe make the company, but when he comes in for the consult, have our employees know that his name was sent to them from the founder and owner of the company, Victor Von Doom himself. That the CEO (Doom) was very impressed with his work recently and thought that he'd be the ideal independent contractor to test, refine, and possibly advertise the products.

Of course, down the road, if our stalker bots begin to exhibit fighting style reminiscent of Spidey's, well that's just a coincidence isn't it?

>>24817842
... Actually, get Octavius in on it too. Bring them both together, civilly, for the purposes of developing a lightweight exoframe for paraplegics. Lend our experience with powered suits to the mix. Spider and Otto have the most experience with tech like this, save for possibly ourselves and Stark. Both in its strengths and weaknesses. Spider-Man's work on high-tensile lightweight fibers (his webs, spider armor, et. al.) would be ideal for housing such a device without impeding range of motion. Octavius has the neural interface and micro-muscle technologies to make it move.

This can be Otto's 'Try-outs', to see if he can overcome his grudge and still work on a non-violent science project in a legitimate lab. If he does well, we can offer him a tenured position at the Latverian Institute of Technology for him to continue his fusion research, or any other tech he feels merits his attention. He has tried to 'go legit' before, but it always backfired for one reason or another. We'll offer him a clean start.

It also pushes Spider towards the 'Doom is a decent guy' camp, and we can drop hints that a suit of armor for Spider-Man wouldn't be a terrible idea.

If Richards finds out he'll flip his shit and badger Spider-Man to spy on the project and feed him info. If Spider feeds him honest intel about the peaceful collaboration and civilian technology, it'll fuel his paranoia. If Spider refuses, it'll alienate Richards from a powerful ally and further send him down the paranoia hole.

Triple play!

>>24812071
I guess not, really. I mean, there probably isn't much left to go on, though

>>24814419
That they didn't get to do it. Presumably we're also working with the terrorists
