Doom is crying because the Planes missed the Baxter Building.
Also Magneto why are you there?? you are supposed to be death from the Wild Sentinel attack on genosha
Lmao Doom crying over a couple of dead stock brokers while the corpses of the homeless fill New York’s streets every day
For what it’s worth, the planes hit before the majority of the stockbrokers came in, so it was mostly maintenance workers and other non-ghouls.
America still deserved 9/11.

Doom crying, but on the inside he’s like this
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I’m fucking dead.
Dr. Doom would do 9/11 but bigger and more complicated. Also with robots and magic
And also mainly to annoy reed richards in some way
Also hasn’t Magneto attempted genocide, like, several times?
To be fair it was retaliatory genocide
I’d be surprised if that hasn’t been done in a storyline at least once over the years. But Magneto was a terrorist in the past. The first issue if i remember right is basically the xmen stopping him from doing some sort of atomic age version 9/11 lol.
This was such a weird moment for me
Like, most of Marvel’s villains have done worse than 9/11
Kingpin is the sole exemption, but he would probably be happy because he has fingers in every pot, he’s probably making bank off it
Dr Doom destroyed a universe because he saw a good version of himself that made him sick.
Kingpin is the sole exemption, but he would probably be happy because he has fingers in every pot, he’s probably making bank off it
Kingpin I agree is the only exception. He often plays into the affable New York businessman (it’s how he ran and was elected as Mayor). He might pretend to be sad about 9/11, while secretly angry he hadn’t shorted airline stock, and already planning how to get rich off the demolition and re-building.
It would have made more sense if it was a lot of street level or lesser New York villains. Like a guy like Shocker is going to be genuinely upset by 9/11.
Paste-Pot Pete would definitely be like “I can use my glue to help!” once he recovered from the shock
Shocker came to mind for me as well. Herman is a good egg
That’s what the good season of Netflix daredevil was about
I almost forgot Daredevil
10 years of MCU pap will do that to you
I did until the post jogged my memory. That first season kinda rocked
Then they had to bring in The Punisher and it all went to pot in season 2
I didn’t even watch it
Proceeds to not cry at the US levelling whole towns in Afghanistan.
I fucking hate this slop
This is liberalism distilled.
Couldn’t even bother showing one of them actually helping. All these people who have higher body counts then this need to do to be relevant here is be sad for a few seconds.

Was watching a video about why anime and manga are universally loved while American comic books and associated media pretty much are only popular in the states. One of the points that resonated with me was about how American comics will often denigrate and villainize races of people, and how people in different countries don’t want to watch media about how they’re terrorists, drug cartel members, etc.
I think about that a lot. Especially when it comes to things like this.
Manga isn’t just superhero
My point was that manga and anime aren’t cursed with American “politics” like the above either.
Like it or not, manga and anime have a wide appeal because they are widely appealing. Messages are universal and are presented in ways that are universally understood.
What exactly is the message in this panel? How does this appeal to anyone except for Americans? Even then, americans have a problem with it because it doesn’t even make sense for the character.
American comics have always done this kind of stuff; where self aggrandizing authors fellate themselves by writing in real life politics without offering any of the actual nuance people would normally afford a political piece.
In the end you get stuff like this, racist depictions of Asians, islamophobia, and the likes and no actual message beyond the current propaganda line.
American media gets to appeal only to Americans and everything else needs to have a ‘worldwide’ appeal that happens include America heavily in consideration as if there’s some sort of cultural hegemony or something
That everything else is Japanese.
I’m comparing one country’s comic industry to another.
Also, DC and especially Marvel have come out time and time again to talk about the difficulties with their media (especially movies) attracting an audience outside of America.
American comics are hyper specific, and as a result appeal to Americans only. On the other hand, Japanese mangas have global appeal because they aren’t hyper specific to the Japanese.
More people know who Goku is than superman. There’s a reason for that.
They aren’t hyper specific to the Japanese so they can market to Americans. The rest of the world also deals with this and their own imported American culture. America can be hyper specific to America because it’s America. Goku is popular in Brazil via America

Shit Juggernaut destroyed the twin towers gleefully and now he crying?
I only see his back, he could be smiling
g’hefuck! I didn’t even realize Juggernaut was there till you both said, and when I scrolled back up scanning the backgrounds for him he jump scared me
jet fuel can’t melt steel beams but it can melt dr. doom’s heart
Dr Doom sends Franklin, a little child, to hell. He’s crying over this? Lmao
So out of character for Doom especially, he doesn’t guve a fuck about
I remember this issue. It was selling for like $35 in 2009.
I sold mine because I needed money during the recession.
EDIT: I bought it for cover price at the time, $2.25. I sold it for $35.
Why the heck does Magneto care enough about this to be there personally? There couldn’t have been that many mutants or anyone else of note to him in the towers or he would’ve just stopped the planes???
Also pretty sure Magneto once had Juggernaut destroy the WTC
Is that why Juggernaut’s also in the background? To finish the job?
Juggernaut is a first responder
We can only hope
Also back then Magneto was Leader of Genosha which was a US enemy at the time so he has no reason to care about 9/11, plus in fatal attractions he did kill millions of people
There’s versions/times where Magneto might care about something like this somewhat so I didn’t want to assume.
Your telling me they had a version of Magneto who was
ed and they brought him back from the dead not to tie him to a rocket and fire him at North Tower but to cry about someone doing the exact same thing he would’ve done if he was still alive?Yea, but then he was still dead until a chinese monk revealed he was magneto all along and he send a bunch of new yorkers to furnaces to burn them alive, but then turns out he wasnt that guy and the real magneto just woke up from the rubble in genosha and was like “hello xavier, what did i miss?”
Comic books are weird.
Shit in 2001 there was the genosha genocide written I think… You know kang blowing up washing also happened that year in comics. Did comic writers feel some shit was coming that year?
Wait!? JUGGERNAUT???
I wonder if theyll make RDJ act this scene out
RDJ Doom crying over the MCU’s january 6
RDJ Doom crying over the MCU’s October 7th.
He should go method
Did y’all know that no Mutants died on 911?
The only one I think would genuinely care is Kingpin
