First scene opens with Maria Hill doing the nails on her feet and speaking at the phone with her mother. Conversation in very mundane (apparently Hill's mother questions her being "in charge") but gets interrupted by another call warning Hill Dr Doom in on board of S.h.i.e.l.d.'s Helicarrier. She goes meet him and finds him surrounded by some goons and other containment measures that apparently didn't work. Since he seems in control Hill speaks with Victor who tries to convince her to back off from hunting him (basically saying she would just waste precious resources in doing so) and especially to call off Ben Grimm and leave Amara alone. Hill tells him he's under arrest but when Victor asks where the Thing is and Hill answers she doesn't know one of her goons speaks out of turn revealing the Thing to be in Latveria. In the blink of an eye Doom is out of the Helicarrier and Hill is pissed.
In Latveria Doom has to deal with some memories of the place until he meets a group of children armed with AK47. He takes away their weapons and tells them to "go to school". Their answer is simply "what school" to which he doesn't have anything to say. Immediately after that Doom finds out a group of military soldiers stealing some crates. He overpowers them and forces them to tell him where a certain general Karadick is. That is the name of the man Doom gave Latveria before leaving.
Doom reaches Karadick's base and asks to meet him. He's attacked by a group of doombots but easily overides them. Then he meets Karadick who doesn't seem too pleased to realize Doom has returned. Apparently he resents him for going away and "leaving nothing in your place". Doom claims he appointed Karadik because he agreed to a free State and to "return the land to its people", instead Doom found a mess. Victor spends 5 seconds of his time to find out about a professor named Angela Kror who according to his reaearch would be a good chancellor for latveria and would help build a "proper government structure" allowing the people to "build Latveria for themselves". Karadick doesn't seem thrilled but Doom tells him to fix the situation. Then an explosion is heard coming from Doom's castle and he flies away. The general shoots him a dark look.
Doom goes investigating the castle and finds the Thing having lost a lot of his stone skin. Doom tells Grimm he doesn't need to speak and he knows who' there with them. He then greets his mother.
End of issue
A few notes:
-Great art.
-Doom looks cool when dealing with goons and military rabble
-Apparently he's an idiot because he couldn't realize a sudden vacuum in power would cause the collapse of Latverian central government.
-Another cliffhanger at issue's end.
