I honestly have no clue where that's from or if its legit (obviously the dialogue is phake). I've looked in my Nova stuff and I have no reference for it. The only time I know of where Nova has fought Doom ended up being a Doom bot.
Anyway, my two cents on the fight. It's semi long so I'm sure most will ignore it lol.
Even without going the high end route (Sphinx double ka stones, Ego etc), Rider has demonstrated the raw power to hurt people significantly more powerful then himself and the depth of his abilities and tactical mind shouldn't be underestimated either.
Up close and personal quick shield and blast

While weakened, dodges a blast of lightning up close, knocks away a brick with a wave of a hand. Gravity waves it looks like.

He's also got his energy absorption, general gravity manipulation abilities, nodes etc. And we haven't even gotten into the Worldmind aiding him as well.
Doom is the man. A villains villain. But I think a smart fighting Nova Prime has the tools to beat him more often then not in a random encounter. Especially given the fact that a random encounter for Nova is never as random as it would be for most given that he has extensive files on just about every hero, villain and alien race in the mu. And the Worldmind to really phuck with Doom's tech.
