Greetings Readers, At last Doom has all the power that he could ever want (ref. Secret Wars #11) and has made an effort to right all the wrongs of the past. All the good guys don't want anything to do with him. At the end of Secret Wars #11, we see that everyone is going to attack Doom and get him to "give up his power." Doom wants to free his mother's soul from Meohisto who is holding her in his dimension. Could it be that Cap. America and Reed are only considering Doom's past values? Why isn't it possible for Doom to have such god-like talents without conquering the universe. He said he was content with his new skills and that he wouldn't have anything to do with humanity (Galctus has a similar problem.) They should leave Doom to his own devices and assuming that he would hold true to his word as he has done in the past. In that way, he would be a different kind of person, like a Galactus or a Watcher. -Paul- "Beam us up Scotty. Spock's got to take a dump."

Because Jim Shooter's scripting the series. He has yet to do a good job of characterization on one of the good guys. Why should he start now? Only one more issue to go. Then we're all frreeeeeeee!!!

No such luck. The new issue of the Comics Buyers Guide
says that a 9-part Secret Wars II series will debut in April.
Written by Jim Shooter, art by Sal Buscema.
It will involve The Beyonder coming to Eatarth and taking
human form so he can learn more about human nature. Each
issue will tie into issues of other series.
