Which comics do you recommend reading before Doomsday to get hyped?
It's been a while since I've dove into comics and would like to reread or read for the first time, some comics to get me hyped up for Doomsday. Any recommendations are welcome!
All of Jonathan Hickman’s run on Fantastic Four and Avengers/New Avengers. Specifically Time Runs Out.

Hickman is a MUST. Those are some of the best comics i have read.

Amazing! Already looking into the them now! They look great!

Agreed on some of the best comics I’ve ever read. Would recommend the reading order of the two Avenger’s Omnibusses into Secret Wars. I wouldn’t recommend just starting at Time Runs Out, starting at the top of Hickman’s run makes the payoff even better (tbh starting with Hickman’s Fantastic Four is my preferred way to read it).

Read everything from All-New, All-Different Marvel. You'll be so starved for some good superhero content that Doomsday will seem like The Shawshank Redemption by comparison.

Infamous Iron Man, if you want to see the OG stark/doom hybrid

I should really try to find the rest of that and fill out some more of my Hickman Avengers/New Avengers runs before hype really builds up, shouldn't I

I really enjoyed the more recent "One World Under Doom", its follow up "The Will of Doom" & "Dungeons of Doom".
Really fantastic (pun intended) art and it humanises him well.
Also the newest run of Captain America (Steve Rogers not Sam Wilson) #1-5 where Doom is the primary antagonist is also excellent by showcasing just how awful of a dictator Doom can be.

I think it'll play into Secret Wars more but I'm convinced Children's Crusade by Heinberg and Cheung is gonna be adapted in some ways.
