This episode, you guessed it, features yet another return by Doctor Doom. But what makes this episode stick out positively is the continuity within the series: Johan, a free-thinking Latverian citizen, also returns and brings the plot forth while the device Doom uses in this episode actually only works because of the guidance device Goron brought him in the episode "The A-B-C's of D-O-O-M".
At first, Doctor Doom's plan seems to be altruistic and Jameson even agrees to help him (as if that ever worked in the past and the name "Doctor Doom" wouldn't be any indication about his ulterior motives) but, spoiler alert, soon all of New York City is threatened by Doom.
The best part is that a great deal of the episode is used for an elaborate and really dark origin story for Doctor Doom although it is a little weird that they completely omit the Fantastic Four in his origin. The Doom origin plot actually is so good that you yet again wish for it to be part of a Fantastic Four series.
