Awesome that he is on nickname terms with Spidey, I never noticed that before.
“Cower before the might of DOOM, Spidey”
“Not today, Vic me ol’ china”
So was this a prequel to the Spider-Man Clone Saga or something? Seems to be a nice recap.
Man, they really like Doom in those Mole Man shades, huh?
Wow, how long would it take in a modern comic to show that the clone was inferior? In Civil War it took half an issue with the clone Thor. And if you want to go back to the Clone Saga … well, you don’t.
Snap-Crackle but no pop.
His machine don’t work right :)
This may just be an English Joke.

Digging the inverted color scheme.
But then again I’m a sucker for all kinds of bizarro/evil clones or counterparts.
Except Nite-Wing.
Physical Comedy. All of the truly great ones understand its importance.
Chaplin knew it. John Ritter knew it. Von Doom knows it.
The sound effect on the second to last panel REALLY should have been “SPLAT!” Otherwise, pure gold.
Is it wrong that I enjoyed those panels UNironically?
Wow, Doom’s awfully cavalier about his imperfect Spidey clone.
“YES, MY CLONE OF SPIDER-MAN WILL BE INVINCIBLE!”
*SPLAT*
“Ah, hell with it. Renegade’s on.”
Even among the finest modern comics, this thing is a masterpiece.
Only a masterpiece of *evil*, Darth.
Particularly in that last panel, Doom should be voiced by Kelsey Grammer.
SNAP! CRACKLE!
Hey, where’s POP?
Your alt text on the photos is brilliant. They should be captions!
Like some long repressed horror, I remember that I bought this issue fresh off the spinner rack. Sure, maybe I was too old for it but “Amazing,” “Peter Parker the Spectacular,” “Marvel Team Up” and “Marvel Tales” just weren’t enough. I NEEDED MORE SPIDEY!
But I still can’t remember how the story turned out in the end. Probably with Dr. Doom treating everyone to ice cream or something…
But wait…
In the movie, the real spidey does exactly that and splats into a wall the first time he tries to web-swing.
Genius!

Nah, I figure it involves Delicious Hostess Fruit Pies. Either that, or Charles Atlas teaching the clone to “butch up” and kick sand in Doom’s face.
Oh, Victor! When will you ever learn?
Who knew that Doom sounded like Jackie Mason?
lovin’ the garish inverted costume. kind of shows the original up for how garish it is as well.
i was always a sucker for professor zoom’s costume, too.
If only Harry Shearer was the voice of Doom. “D’oh!”
I like that Doom slaps his forehead at the end. That’s gold.
And you’re right, that should be a Bowen mini-bust. Maybe even one of those giant Alex Ross things with Doom’s hand coming out of nowhere and slapping his own noggin.
