10 Most Heroic Things Doctor Doom Has Ever Done

10. Fought His Future Self - Iron Man #250

People think Iron Man is all about business rivals trying to take down Tony Stark through giant robots or something, but back in the silver age he was just as freaking weird as the rest of them. Case in point, that time he and Doctor Doom got sent to future Camelot by Merlin to fight an even more evil version of Doom from the future.

Victor Von Doom is a pretty evil guy - just ask Mark Waid whenever you've got four and a half hours to spare, but he still has a code of honor, as well as a huge ego. So when he sees this future version of himself being a more evil and more successful Doom than him, oh you'd better believe ol' Vicky refuses to stand for it.

Instead of Iron Man saving the day, it's Doctor Doom, who strikes down and kills his future self, choosing to create god knows how many time paradoxes instead of tolerate a future version of himself outdoing him.

Which is definitely egomaniacal, but in his defense, that future version of him WAS a huge dick, so taking him out should definitely count for something.
