Both are put into a room where they have to come up with the most diabolical plan to conquer the world. They are both allowed to use whatever resources they currently have. They are given 24 hours to come up with something and the winner gets to put their plan into action with the other serving as designated flunky.

Who wins?

Spite... Doom is at another 5 lvls over Lex.

Interesting. Lex has a better record. But his plans are long reaching. He doesn't merely wanna run the world. He wants the hearts of the people as well.

yup. he made the people love him, and even superman had to deal with it.

doom would get closer alot quicker then lex, but lex should win in the long run

then doom would just kill Lex

Lord Feron
Doom, with ease.

1. He has taken the Power of the Beyonder.
2. He has Taken the Power of Surfer.
3. He owns Latveria.
4. He is one of the most respected/feared beings of the MU even Thanos acknowledges the threat that is Doom.
5. Has created machines that are top tier tech.
6. He has knowledge of almost everything that goes on.

Doom is leagues above Lex.

After it's all said and done, Doom's work would fit right into whatever Lex is planning. Lex would some how use Doom's work to complete his diabolical plan. In the end Lex says to Doom, "You've been working for me this entire time."

Before Doom kills him? I doubt it.

Luthor doesn't want world domination, he wants world adoration.

Case in point: Superman: Red Son. Luthor hates Superman and goes out of his way to **** with him and the soviet union. But when he's gone? Luthor becomes the savior he always said he could be.

Granted, he didn't do this in the main DCU. But the point stands. Luthor wants an ideal like Red Son. And only if Superman died would he actually work towards that.

Should also mention that Luthor outsmarted Alex at the end of IC. And how DD Rex was the lynchpin of a deal between him and Darkseid. or how he worked with Sivana to doublecross Libra in FC. Or ressurecting himself in a cloned body and passing himself off as his own son. shock

Doom. He actually gave up his control over Earth in Emperor Doom. Lex had his Office of the US Presidency disgraced before he could lay it all at the feet of a dressed up Alexander Luthor corpse.

Here is another quick catalogue of other accomplishments. First, Doom has conquered a lot of places, a lot of times. First, he's brought America to its knees before in Fantastic Four #117:

Doom also conquered 616-Earth in the limited series, Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Comic Magazine #12:

He conquered 616-Earth again in Champions #16:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/oo326/OneDumbG0/DoomConquersEarth01Champions16.jpg

And he conquered 616-Earth once more in the graphic novel, Emperor Doom. What's notable about this instance, is that he begins to create a utopia and then voluntarily gives up rule because :

He also conquered Counter-Earth, the pocket-dimension Earth that Franklin Richards created during Onslaught, from Doom: Emperor Returns #2:

Both could conceivably conquer the world, although I'd say Lex comes off as the more creative of the two, since he often doesn't rely on sheer tech but manipulation.

He lost the presidency in S/B. A book notorious for screwing up characterizations. I mean, Kryptonite steroids? no expression There was literally no point to that and no reason for it.

Give me a ****ing break. Give Luthor credit where credit is due. It was a stroke of genius to trot out Alex with altered facial features made to ensure nobody would connect the dots.

Not to mention it's a different thing to be a global savior, than to be a benevolent ruler.

XV. DOOM'S ARMOR (cont'd)

...

His Excalibur Armor. Yes, he managed to infuse a shard of Excalibur into his armor making him invincible in Iron Man: Legacy of Doom #2:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/oo326/OneDumbG0/Doom%20Inventions/DoomArmor49-ExcaliburArmor2.jpg Doom has already wielded Excalibur. He even fused a piece of Excalibur with his armor. Whatever Doom has tried to do, he's eventually accomplished. And the scope of his accomplishments and the accomplishments he's actualized far outweigh Lex's.

Until Doom manages to permanently put down Mr. Fantastic like Red Skull permanently put down Steve Rogers I'm gonna say that ain't entirely true.

Doom has kicked his tuckus several times. Doom's beaten the FF more than Lex has beaten Superman. And I don't mean, won the battle only to lose the war type deals. He's completely and utterly beaten them. Doom's accomplished everything he's wanted to do: 1) Rule the world completely and utterly? Check. 2) Save his mother from Mephisto? Check. 3) Completely humble Reed Richards? Check.

Past that, Doom's got feats that'd make Lex's head spin.

If Doom has prep time in a certain thread (even if only a minuscule amount) most people give him the automatic win, without ever really giving a reason why... Other than, "he's Doom, teh prep GOD!!!" Not that I disagree, but out of all the underrated characters on KMC, I personally don't view Doom as one of them.

Anyhow, Doom ftw.

Doom absolutely owns Lex. Does anyone here really think that if Doom wanted to that he could not discover that Superman is really Clark Kent. Actually I beleive he already did once. Knowing that kryptonite is Supermans weakness that he would not be able to kill Clark.

Lex winning the presidency was able to happen in DC, because DC is not in the "real world" like Marvel.

You think Wilson Fisk, Norman Osburne or for that matterTony Stark could not become President if Marvel wanted him to.

You don't know much about Pre crisis Lex then. The guy was making time machines with dish washers. And creating super weapons with radios and toasters. Not to mention he created super monsters that could destroy worlds with his own Earth tech alone.

He's dealt with all soughts of tech from Kryptonian to Braniac's advanced universally diverse tech to super advanced 30th century tech. So he's no slouch in scientific terms, where Lex gets the most credit from me is his creativity.

Just pointing out what the character has done in his history. Post Crisis is more grounded but he's still constructed, applied and studied Braniac tech (which is the sum total of advanced tech from countless civilizations all arond the comos), advanced 30th century tech, Kryptonian tech even able to retfofit a self replecating Kryptonian dreadnaught with his own modifications etc

Even in the face of a tech god like Braniac, Lex is noted as the master of application.

He's like the Himon while Braniac's Metron.
