Stan Lee in 2016 gave an interview, thanks to which the universe of the doctor, the image of the doctor underwent a revision. Former President Marvel Comics stated that hero just "wants to rule the world," and this is not a crime.
In this regard, whether it was about to redeem the unfairly accused hero and reveal his identity on the other hand. Actually, the last comics do not go into incision with the conclusions of the creator. After all, after the civil war, the former ruler of Latvian stole the identity of the Iron man in the absence of Tony Stark.

Image and biography of Dr. Duma
Full name - Victor Back Doom. Born in the fictional state of Latvira. His parents - Gypsies by nationality. Father Werner is a doctor, and the mother of Cynthia, as the son learned later, is a witch. Molded, a man recalled her cold hands and a learned smile.

People learned about it and killed the witch. After the Werner could not cure Baroness from cancer, he took his son and ran from his native settlement.
The journey ended tragically - the father died in the mountains without food. Son saved Boris, one of the inhabitants.

The legends about the adventures of the young genius reached one American general who suggested a guy to study at the best university of the country. At 16, the teenager moved to America, entered the school and met the future enemy - Reed Richards.
They competed with each other in scientific achievements. Duma worked hard to create a device with which could go to another dimension and release the mother's soul from the lap methist. When the car was ready, Richards snuck into the room and studied the drawings. Reed told Viktor that some calculations are not quite true, but a self-confident student rejected help.
The Dum launched the device, but as Richards warned, an error occurred. As a result, the explosion thundered, and the car's creator got burns. After the incident, the guy was kicked out of the university and he went to Europe, where he met with Valeria - a girl who became his only girlfriend in Latvarian.

Soon, a man learned that the hated Baron of Latvira became the king, and Richards misunderstands himself as a smarter person in the world.

It is possible to consider the villain of the one who freed 500 thousand inhabitants of Latvian and hear a person with a fair character, "the question is rhetorical. But at the same time, the hero was ready to destroy New York to enslave with one person - Mr. Fantastic.
