minus-squareDavid_Eight@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoThere was a short comic run where Dr. Doom becomes Ironman after Tony dies that I really liked. The only thing connecting them is that they’re both dudes in suits of armor otherwise.
minus-squareDragonTypeWyvern@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 months agoWell they’re also both arrogant super-genuises who like making robot armies.
minus-squareMicrow@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoNow that you say it, Infamous Iron Man could be part of the influences they want to draw from for a movie script here…
minus-squareDlayknee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-23 months agoI thought the same thing, except this is like a reverse-Infamous plot where (presumably) Tony is Doom rather than Doom is Ironman. I trust Marvel & the Russo Bros quite a bit at this point, but this is definitely a weird casting.
