Doom's magic, while not on par with Dr. Strange is waaay up there and that alone I think could cause Apocalypse much problems. You think it might be only amateur at best, since its not really a focus of his character. But the guy came in second place when the Vishanti were choosing the Earth's next Sorcerer Supreme. Dr. Strange obviously won that. And after that he fought the hordes of hell back in his war with Mephisto during the 'Triumph and Torment' storyline where he fights for the soul of his mother. Then there's his armor's might and his endless supply of Doombots and whatever trinkets he's got lying around, like some capsule that can suck cosmic energy or Onslaught's energy or the Beyonder's energy. Then there's the nasty skin upgrade to his armor in which Doom is just really evil. I mean... that is downright evil. Its like he lost his noble character for more power. The skin of your first love layering your armor? Ewww.
Apocalypse has gotten spanked by every mutant on the block. Cyclops, Stryfe, Cable, Magneto, Phoenix, X-Man. Hell, he's gotta brainwash Angel, Wolvie and the Hulk to set his plans in motion. I gotta say, the guy is probably the most poorly written villain and therefore the stupidest villain other than Mojo that the X-Men have faced. He's the first mutant in history, is immortal, has amassed centuries of knowledge and power and he can't beat the X-Men once? I mean... the Toad's probably beaten the X-Men more than Apocalypse.
Doom would cast the Crimson Bands of Cytorrak and hold him down, suck his power out with one gauntlet and crush his neck with the other. Then he'd be disgusted with himself for actually having touched such a weak loser. Apocalypse is all hype, he can make Horsemen out of people, control empires when there are no other real mutants around, but what has he actually done in a brawl?
