    Ah yes. The giant member of our race went evil and decided to destroy the entire universe so that he could do his job a little bit faster. He's dead now, but luckily we have the energy of this other member of our race who went evil to resurrect him. As a watcher I see no flaw in this plan.

    Marvel Cosmic stories: "My Infinite Power is more Infinite than your Infinite Power!"
    Did anyone else notice that the Watchers started out in his very video as technology advanced aliens that suddenly became Celestial level cosmic beings? I begin scratching my head when Doom pulled his Cosmic Power Sucker, patent pending, on Aron and got a Cosmic powered battery out of it. When Doom took the Silver Surfer's powers, the Beyonder's powers as well as... name names, Doom took their powers at some point... he used those powers to empower himself, not his armor. What did Doom take and what did Doom power? As a writing exercise, it looks more like a solution in search of a problem "Doom will be stopped when he has to reject his own armor/image or else die! How will he get in such a predicament though?"
    "I know, Doom will do something stupid as his first move...for example, he could take Ultimate Power and not make it his own! That's completely in character!"
    Doing something stupid that later has to be rectified with cool clear thinking? That's not Doom, that's Reed Richards!

    "A secret room inside the Empire State Building."
    A "secret" room that just happens to have a window overlooking all of Manhattan.
    Do the writers know how architecture or real estate work? Like a 15 foot tall alien with the head of a newborn baby would raise a lot of alarm bells but how in the Hell would he pay rent? Especially with that much square footage.
    Dammit Marvel, I can believe that there's an alien race who watches over humanity but I cant wrap my head around that room being secret.
