It wasn't that much of a mystery though. As early as FF #10 it was clearly shown that Doom was seriously messed up. Byrne simply retconned it because that's what Byrne does...he has to change everything. He changed nothing. What he did was merge Lee's and Kirby's differing ideas of Doom's face into a coherent origin. Nothing. Other than the clear scarring on top of his noggin. And the grown people recoiling in horror at his visage. But other than that...nothing. |

Don't know if it'll make any difference to you, but check out this well thought out article on that scar and Kirby and Byrne's takes on it: captaincomics.ning.com/forum/topics/deck-log-entry-225-dueling-scars |

Exactly. People don't recoil at the little scar that Byrne shows him with. Especially not multiple people multiple times. |

MAX Fury raised it by one with someone called F**k Face (without the edit).

The hideously unattractive entrepreneur and originator of Mega-City One's ugly craze, Otto Sump, says "Get Ugly!"  I never knew that Mick Jagger made the cover of 2000 AD!😂 |

He sort of stopped me from finishing the LOEG series. You missed out. Icctrombone, say what you will about Kevin O'Neill's artwork -- I agree with Confessor on this one.
I also found Nemesis the Warlock to be a very engaging read; however, the over-arcing plot has more twists than a Dutch pretzel. |

I'm surprised no one mentioned this one, yet... Wrightson's most controversial story. "Jennifer" from Creepy magazine.  |
