I'll tell you how this fits into C.A.B.'s Halloween Hoo Ha 2012 in a moment… Before Hannibal Lecter and before Darth Vader there was the original Über villain in a mask, so cool and badass you could not help but love him. I speak, of course of Doctor Victor Von Doom. And here we find the indisputable baddie of the bad; nemesis of the Fantastic Four; and ruler of Latveria; putting a young Susan Storm (The Invisible Girl) to a tickle torture ordeal with brilliant technology that perhaps even Mr. Fantastic wouldn't understand. Why such high-handedness? To convince her to marry him instead of the rubber nebbish Reed Richards, of course. Pfft… he probably didn't even need to go this far, the dude owns his own country… now THAT is bad ass. What girl could say no to a self made prince?
To produce this recreation of what never was, I have done my best imitation of Jack "the King" Kirby; in homage to my all time favorite comic book artist.
Okay… Halloween. So back in the late 60's when Halloween was free of the razor blade in candy scare and kids were permitted to play with crayons without needing to don a crash helmet, I wanted so bad to answer the door one Halloween and see what the big kids were wearing that night. So dad stood by and let me open the door all by myself. There in the darkness staring down at me was the horrid visage of Doctor Doom. A cheap plastic mask to be sure, but enough to make me run all the way to my room, not wanting anything to do with scary, SCARY Halloween ever EVER again. 😉
