    • Is his passion for ruling the world justified?

    • Diplomacy with the X-Men, being godfather to Valeria Richards… is Doom really the villain, or the leader Earth needs?

    Case 2: Lex Luthor – Superman’s eternal rival.

    • His obsession with taking down the Man of Steel runs deep.

    • But… what if Superman did turn bad?

    • Is Lex right to prepare for the unthinkable?


    👨🏽‍⚖️ YOU be the jury. 👩🏾‍⚖️

    Will Doom and Luthor be condemned… or vindicated?
