The Gloom Of DOOM

Doom is a brilliant inventor and scientist. While at the same time, he is one of the most powerful sorcerers in existence, making him easily amongst the most dangerous villains on Earth.

This is the truth. But at the same time, at the PRECISE moment of his victory he somehow screws it all up and allows his enemies to defeat him. It's almost like he doesn't want to win or he doesn't want all the responsibility that a 'win' would entail. He's smart enough to have figured that much out at least. So he rages and fights for something he will never have...control.
