    I like Dr Strange, Dr Fate, Dr Doom, and Dr Reed Richards in that order....

      after thinking about it for a sec, I realized that Dr Bruce Banner could take on that entire list at the same time....

        That's why I left him out. (That and I forgot about him.....and Dr. Don Blake as well)

          Banner in the form of Banner doesn't last 10 seconds, and ditto Don Blake. So if it's a battle of the Doctors, those two are at the bottom of the list.

          You almost have to put the mystic guys in a separate category, otherwise Dr. Strange makes mincemeat out of this list. So I'd go with Reed Richards first and then Dr. Doom. (One of the rare villains to have his own book, at least for a while.)

          Now, if you add Dr. Manhattan, he's the hands-down winner against all of them at the same time.

            Doctor, Doctor give me the news,
            I got a bad case...

            Doom and Strange stand out (Hulk is a non contestant).

              Dr Strange might be able to deal with Dr Manhatten. Depends on the rules.

                Rules? We don't need no stinking rules.

                  I'm sorry, man, but I've got magic. I've got poetry in my fingertips. Most of the time--and this includes naps --I'm an F-18, bro. And I will destroy you in the air. I will deploy my ordinance to the ground.

                        You forgot to add Dr. Detroit.

                        放屁

                        Literally means "pulling your pants down to fart" which is a Chinese idiom for "wasted effort." Makes sense to me!

                          I mean he's not a Dr.

                            if Dr. Doom can take on the Fantastic Four, then i think he'd give just Mr. Fantastic a good fight. if you look up his powers these days on wiki:

                            1) Doctor Doom is a polymath scientific genius
                            2) Doctor Doom possesses considerable mystical capabilities due to teachings from Tibetan monks, and tutoring from his lover Morgan Le Fey.
                            3) The alien Ovoids taught Doom the process of psionically transferring his consciousness into another
                            4) Doom can exert technopathic control over certain machines.
                            5) Doom's armor augments his natural physical strength to superhuman levels and is highly resistant to harm, at one point even surviving heat levels equal to that of the sun. Doom's armor has been shown to hold its own against Ironman's.
                            6) The character has also used his scientific talents to steal or replicate the power of other beings such as the Silver Surfer, or in one case the Beyonder.
                            7) In Fantastic Four 566-569 Doctor Doom received a significant power upgrade. He was thrown back in time (perhaps about 50 million years) by the Marquis of Death. Doom then fought through time and space to get back
                            8) Doom has a remarkably strong will, as demonstrated in the graphic novel, Emperor Doom when he dared his prisoner, the mind controlling Purple Man, to attempt to control him and he successfully resists.
                            9) As the absolute monarch of Latveria, Dr. Doom has diplomatic immunity.

                            im not really that big of a fan of Dr. Doom, but show me powers that can top this, i think.

                              Dr Strange still has a shot, but the current "Smart Hulk/Dr Banner always in Hulk-form" is the only one that is a no-brainer....
