Doom wins, and with some ease.

Lex would win...he'd find a way to cheat

knocking the board over is Lex's only chance at avoiding certain defeat.

that's a perfectly legitimate move in Chess, Kasparov did it to Short in 1998.

How much does dooms armor weigh?

Lex probably has a hidden camera on his person...with Reed Richards telling him every move to make via Lex's hidden ear piece.

Doom anticipated such a move and sent Sue a gift box from Victoria's Secret and a big selection of edible paints... Reed is going to be somewhat distracted.

yeah and they don't call Thanos THE MAD TITAN for nothing, he decides that Lex should lose, so hands over the transmitter to Edifice Rex ... and CHECKMATE.

Thanos wouldn't do that. Lex made the initial agreement with lady Death because he knew Thanos might double-cross him. Thanos is bound to not screw Lex over.

I'm not going to say that they're copying Darkseid's whole dealie in Countdown because the writers of Countdown by no means invented that motif but...yeah that looks a lot like what Darkseid was doing in Countdown, even down to a bunch of hero-shaped pieces knocked over.

To what are you exactly reffering, haven't read countdown.
Or do you just mean the cover?

The cover. Countdown to Final Crisis was basically just a chess game between Darkseid and Solomon the Monitor. A chess game which Darkseid eventually won.

Like I said, it was by no means a new idea. I'm sure the writers of that comic stole it from something older as well.

The cover is pretty good though, as it highlights what Doom is doing in the series.

My post was more or less meant as a joke, I would be heavily suprised if a cover like this wasn't used before (as you two already pointed out). The whole "chess metaphor" is as old as time itself.

I remember only one instance where Quan said Thanos would lose. It was in the Thanos/IG vs Scathan thread.

Doomwar is better than Countdown and has nothing to do with Countdown's premise.

Omega is a batshit crazy Darkseid fan rivaling Quan also.

Red Son Lex was awesome, if only mainstream Post Crisis Luthor could be written like him.

Actually since my technique of play involves countering and defeating the opponent's strategy by developing an on-the-fly counter strategy rather than a straight up opening strategy I do much better when I have the black pieces. Chess to me has always been a game of exploiting mistakes, and the first person to make a move is also the first person who can make a mistake.
