NYCC 2024: Marvel Comics Unveils 'One World Under Doom' Series
Ryan North and R.B. Silva’s 'One World Under Doom' a nine-issue event series tied to the upcoming One World Under Doom status quo, launches in February.
Just now at New York Comic Con’s Marvel Comics: Next Big Thing Panel, the biggest comics panel of the weekend, Editor in Chief C.B. Cebulski, VP & Executive Editor Tom Brevoort, and FANTASTIC FOUR writer Ryan North revealed more information on what the future holds for the Marvel Universe next year in ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM.
First teased last year at San Diego Comic-Con, ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM is an overarching status quo shift coming to the Marvel Comics, the likes of which haven’t been seen since 2008’s DARK REIGN. Spinning out of BLOOD HUNT where Doctor Doom manipulated Doctor Strange into passing him the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme, ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM sees Doom accomplish his ultimate goal at last as he uses his new power to take over the entire world.
It’s a shocking and upending turn of events that will impact Marvel’s entire line of comics and see the launch of tie-in series and one-shots, collectively forming an era worthy of comic books’ greatest supervillain!
This new overarching status quo will be anchored by a core title launching in February—ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM. The nine-issue series will written by Ryan North, whose acclaimed current run of FANTASTIC FOUR will be heavily impacted by ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM, and drawn by one of the industry’s hottest artists, R.B. Silva, known for his defining work on the X-Men in titles like POWERS OF X and RISE OF THE POWERS OF X.
While Doom’s reign will be felt across the Marvel Universe, ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM will take readers behind the mask as they bear witness to the triumphs and trials of Doom’s rule, as well as the foolish attempts to topple it…
ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM!
Six months ago, Doctor Victor Von Doom became Sorcerer Supreme - then disappeared behind Latveria's closed borders. For most, there’s enough going on in the world that Doom's absence is not a priority, and some time without him feels like a blessing. Only a few recognize it for what it truly was... the calm before the storm. It is a storm that has now arrived.
The world has woken up to a new reality: Doctor Doom, Earth's Sorcerer Supreme, has magically taken over every broadcast medium on the planet and declared himself Emperor of the World - the ruler of a new United Latveria! And shockingly, impossibly, all of Earth's leaders seem to be going along with this.
Luckily, whether it's mind control or Doombots, whatever's affecting them hasn't affected Earth's heroes - and so they quickly form a strike team to stop Doom's machinations. But will they succeed? And what happens when some begin to welcome their new Emperor with open arms, clamoring for One World Under Doom?

"ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM sees Doctor Doom coming out of [Latveria], and overnight, taking over the world," North said. "Every country is a province of a united Latveria, and everyone answers to Doom, and he is going to make some changes... He gets to show the world that he’s the greatest at what he does, and that might not be great for people not named Victor Von Doom."
