Doom’s reign as sorcerer supreme and emperor of the world may be coming to an end soon, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be some fallout. At New York Comic Con, Marvel announced Dungeons of Doom, a three-issue miniseries that will find “a new cast of characters from various corners of the Marvel Universe” shifting through the wreckage of Latveria to find Doom’s secret weapons.
Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Benjamin Percy are co-writing the series, which will feature art by Carlos Magno, Robert Gill, Justin Mason and Georges Jeanty.
“Ben Percy is a kindred spirit, and we both love horror books,” Johnson said. “Without spoiling the events that lead up to this series, there’s going to be a big conflict in Latveria, and all these factions end up in a place they didn’t ever know that was there. It gives us a set up for a horror anthology in the Marvel Universe, where we’ll see various factions of the Marvel Universe opening these doors and finding these horrors that Doom has been keeping hidden.”
What sounds like the plot of a heist movie soon turns into a horror show:
With Doom’s castle empty and masterless, the superpowers of the world race to claim and control the untold power and technology that await inside. But when an explosion sends them all plummeting into a dungeon labyrinth that none of them knew was there, what began as an arms race becomes a terrifying game of survival. Who, if any, will survive? And what horrors lie within the DUNGEONS OF DOOM?
Look for the first issue to arrive on Jan. 14.
