That's nothing to brag about. Sentry stalemated WWH, and WWH would get stomped by even a jobbing Apocalypse 😬Plus as others have pointed out, one-shotting Warlock. Two-shotting Magus.
Magus and Warlock weren't expecting Doom and Kang to show-up. So sneak attack.
Apocalypse however has had the edge over guys like Loki, Black Bolt, Cable and High Evolutionary.
Doom might be smarter alot smarter but Apocalypse is too versatile for him and has powers that would greatly help him with his technology and prep. Plus he has 2.5 times as much prep as Doom does.
In HOM, Black Bolt defeated Apocalypse. I don't know of any other occasions in which they fought each other. High Evolutionary was not at full power when Apocalypse defeated him because at full power, the High Evolutionary was able to contend with Galactus. Also, Apocalypse defeated Loki via sheer cunning and trickery. Otherwise, Apocalypse would have lost. Apocalypse defeating Cable is not an impressive feat since Cable was never at full power when contending with Apocalypse. Apocalypse may be more versatile, but that does not determine the outcome of this battle.
Doom has worked with technology similar to, or greater than Celestial Technology. For example, Watcher Technology, Pre-Retcon Beyonder's Technology, etc. Furthermore, he mastered the use of both pretty quickly.
I would love to see this battle, nevertheless. I wonder whose name sounds more menacing.
