    Default Marvels equivalent to Doomsday?

    Who is Marvels version of DC comics Doomsday?, Did they make a character thats an unstoppable killing machine that was too much like Doomsday?.

    More like if they decided to copy the Idea.

    marvel doesn't need one.

    Doomsday is a crappy rip-off of the Hulk. Why would Marvel copy something DC copied from them?

    I'm not sure there's a really close proximation.

    First thing that popped in my head was the Fury from the Captain Britian mythos... but that's not exactly a super close match.

    Maybe 1960s Mangog. He was pretty much unstoppable back then, at least physically.

    Marvel doesn't have an equivalent of Doomsday. DC has an equivalent of the Hulk.

    Right.

    Makes me think just how little of Spider-Man's adventures, I've read over the last decade or more.

    Research for a YouTube DC/Marvel copycat video?

    How mindless is Doomsday?

    From Thor, the Destroyer.
    One might argue Juggernaut even.
    I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
    A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:

    Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
    Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

    Onslaught was that when he first debuted. he, literally, just floored every big-hitter they could find.

    Except that both predate Doomsday by a couple decades or more. Doomsday really is more closely associated with the mindless version of the Hulk, probably as shown in Hulk #300 when he fought the Avengers and then Thor in NYC, and then when returned around #315 or so and took on both Avengers teams in the desert.
