The Fantastic Four's iconic origin was just horrifically rewritten, turning Reed Richards from the leader of a beloved superhero family to the broken sole survivor of an experiment gone wrong. Marvel's new Ultimate Universe depicts a warped version of Marvel's timeline - one in which Reed Richards has become this reality's Doctor Doom. Now, fans get to see the horrifying events that led up to his transformation.
In classic Fantastic Four lore, Reed's miscalculations exposed his family to cosmic radiation, causing them to develop powers. However, 2020's Fantastic Four #17 revealed that Reed wasn't actually to blame. The corrupt leader of the alien planet Spyre was actually responsible for the cosmic rays that transformed the Fantastic Four , clearing Reed of the blame.

While this Doctor Doom may be heroic, his secretive experiments are a threat to the Ultimates' desperate fight for survival.
While the new Doctor Doom is on the side of the angels, fighting to destroy the Maker's power base, it's clear that he has his own agenda in trying to rewrite his tragic origin. The issue exposes Doom's experiments with "Project: Four," in which he has given four mice the powers of the FF, only for them to degenerate and die. It seems Doom intends to bring back his family and gift them the powers the Maker prevented them from having.
