DR. DOOM
Gender: Male
Height: 6' 2" (6'7" armored)
Weight: 225 lbs (102 kg) (415 lbs armored)
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Brown

(Powers)
Gypsy Sorcery: Doctor Doom's potential in the mystic arts comes from the Roma (i.e. Gypsies, not the character Roma) heritage of his mother. He learned these abilities from his time with a secret order of monks in Tibet. He further developed his abilities by traveling through time and learning lost Dark Arts. Doctor Strange originally considered him magically proficient but only a mid-level mage, but now considers Doom one of the most powerful practitioners of sorcery and a potential Sorcerer Supreme. His knowledge and power is great enough to hold his own against the likes of Morgan le Fay and Doctor Voodoo, the current Sorcerer Supreme. His knowledge of spell-craft likely surpasses Doctor Strange's, former Sorcere Supreme. However, he considers his scientific abilities to be more important and has devices that do many of the same things.

* Mystical Blasts
* Mystical Force-fields
* Invoke Entities
* Spell Casting
* Summoning
* Teleportation
* Dimensonal Travel
* Mystical Ensnaring
* Mystical Portals
* Mind Transference: By training with an alien race, Doom has gained the ability to switch his mind with that of another nearby human being with whom he's made eye contact, a process which he learned from the alien Ovoids. However, Doom prefers his own body and only uses this transference power as a last resort.


(Weapons)
Titanium Armor: Dr. Doom's original armor is a nuclear-powered, computer-assisted battle suit. It was magically forged at a monastery in Tibet, but since then has been repaired by normal (technological) means.

* Enhanced Strength: Gives Dr. Doom the ability to lift (press) approximately 2 tons.

* Durability: The armor is fashioned of a high-strength titanium alloy.

* Flight: On some occasions, some of Dr. Doom's suits of armor gives him the power of flight without the use for jet-packs.

* Video Communicator: Built into the right wrist is a video communicator, which he can use to stay in contact with his bases from any point on Earth.

* Electric Shock: The outer surface of the armor can generate a massive electric shock on command.

* Jet-packs: The typical suit of armor has twin jet-packs mounted at the waist, though other suits (or modifications of the original suit) contain a single jet-pack mounted on the back.

* Concussive Blasts: Concussive bolts of force can be fired from the gauntlets and faceplate of the armor, though the mask only generates force blasts when it is not being worn.

* Force-field: The suit's best defense is the force-field generated by the armor, which has a maximum radius of eight feet (and so can encompass others); Doom cannot attack without lowering his force-field.

* Infrared Vision: Infrared scanners in the helmet allow the wearer to detect heat sources, permitting night vision and the ability to see invisible persons (unless they do not give off or can somehow mask their heat signature).

* Recycling System: The armor is self-supporting, equipped with internal stores and recycling systems for air, food, water, and energy, allowing the wearer to survive lengthy periods of exposure underwater or in outer space.

* Sensor Systems: Optical scanners in the helmet allow the helmet's eyepieces to be used as high-powered telescopes, and parabolic ear amplifiers fitted inside the helmet allow Doom to detect extremely faint sounds and unusual frequencies within the audible range for humans.

* Solar Energy Absorption: A thermo-energizer allows the armor to absorb and store solar and heat energy, and use it to power the armor's other systems; this system can only be used while the force-field is deactivated.

* Splinters of the True Cross: Doom claims that his armour contains splinters of the True Cross, along with other such defenses (presumably to protect him from undead enemies, i.e Dracula). Considering Doom's capabilities to time travel, there is possibility of this being true.

As a genius-level inventor and monarch of a sovereign nation, Doom can attain many other pieces of equipment as needed.


(Abilities)
Genius-level Intellect: Doctor Doom's most dangerous weapon is his genius-level intellect. He is easily one of the top mortal minds on the planet. Doom has constructed hundreds of devices, including a working time machine (the first of its kind on Earth), devices which can imbue people with superpowers, and many types of robots. His most frequently used robots are his "Doombots," exact mechanical replicas of the real Doctor Doom. They look like him, talk like him, and even act like him. Individually, Doombots have an advanced AI (artificial intelligence) so that each one believes itself to be the real Doom. As a safety measure, each Doombot has a dampener program that is triggered whenever the real Doom (or another Doombot) is nearby. These "body doubles" appear when Doom cannot be present or is unwilling to risk his own life, and are often responsible for Doom's return from certain death. Another common type of robot used is the Servo-Guard, the police force of Latveria. Doom specializes in physics, robotics, cybernetics, genetics, weapons technology, biochemistry, and time travel. He also has natural talents for leadership, strategy, politics, and manipulation.

Highly Influential Connections: As Monarch of Latveria, Doctor Doom has access to a vast collection of magical artifacts, technological and military hardware. Also has command of conventional military forces.

LEX LUTHOR
Gender: Male
Height: 6' 2" , (in armor) 6'11"
Weight: 210 lbs (95 kg) , (in armor) 595 lbs.
Eyes: Green
Hair: Bald

(Abilities)
Genius-level Intellect: Enhanced physical and cognitive abilities due to his cloned body's specific genetic design construction. Although Luthor possesses a genius level intellect, his scientific prowess is not as refined as his Earth-One, Earth-Two and Earth-Three counterparts who were able to create artificial lifeforms from scratch, interdimensional travel and functional time travel.

Trained Combatant: Lex Luthor is also trained in hand-to-hand combat, though his personal Amazon fighting instructors consider him a a sub-par combatant with poor form. Although he has single-handedly fought with Nightwing and Batman, in his fight with Nightwing his opponent had already been knocked off-balance by a gas that rendered him nearly unconscious, while in his fight with Batman he had injected himself with kryptonite-enhanced Venom.


(Weapons)
WARSUIT
* Super strength, durability, flight, force field generation all across the armor and seemingly unprotected head from the torso of the powered armor, Kryptonite energy blasts, energy blade in right gauntlet.

* Green Kryptonite energy generator in right forefinger, red Kryptonite energy generator in middle finger, blue Kryptonite energy generator in ringfinger, and black Kryptonite energy generator in pinky finger.

* Blue energy blasts from left gauntlet (which went clean through Starfire's right shoulder), super strength and durability, and energy shield in the left gauntlet.

* Sharp, green Kryptonite energy spike from right arm's under armor, flight at super speed due to jets in boots, and electrical surge generated across armor by pressing button on left palm.

Dr. Doom does not get caught by the good guys, ever. Doom wins, hands down. I like Lex better as a character though, he is just more fun. See scenario (Justice league):
Tala frees Grodd, who mounts an insurrection against Luthor with his fellow Secret Society members. Luthor manages to turn Grodd's own telepathy against him;

Lex says,"It could have gone either way"
Grodd says,"It really could have."
Lex says,"No, but why speak ill of the dead." (best line ever)
Grodd says,"....."then he forces Grodd into outerspace himself, apparently killing him.

I'm a big time DC mark and even I gotta go with Doom on this one. unless the fight happens when Luthor was president. I'll take the Marines over whatever piddly-ass army that Latveria can come up with.

I'd buy this comic book a million times if Lex had the Orange Lantern ring.

Doom has been able to get the powers of the Beyonder people. The powers of GOD. That's all that needs saying.
