Doom's Division
Tiger Division roars into action once again - in service to Doom! Doctor Doom rules the planet! But instead of chaos, he's created world peace. Where does that leave Tiger Division, South Korea's foremost defenders? As agents of the National Intelligence Service under White Fox, they're ordered to uphold the new world order - with the help of some new team Wave, Karma and Aero! Their first mission brings them to Japan to stop a resistance being led by the molten mutant Sunfire! But not everyone is content in Doom's utopia. Tensions are high, and the stakes are higher. As members turn on each other, old allegiances break and new alliances form, the newly formed Doom's Division faces destruction from within - and not everyone may survive!

Tiger Division get their own One World Under Doom tie-in, which goes about as well as you expect.
The team's been repurposed to fight for Doom rather than for the good of Korea, and that sits badly with most of the team, including new additions Karma, Wave, and Aero. What ensues is a bit of a Tiger Division civil war, with some double crosses and reveals that you could probably see coming a mile off. There's nothing overly surprising here, and it feels more like a set-up for a second arc than a complete story in and of itself.
The artwork from Minkyu Jung is fine, but the colouring feels a little flat. The visuals are a bit lifeless compared to say, his work on Doctor Aphra most recently, or Ms. Marvel from a few years back.
Not bad, and it's always nice to get a spotlight on characters like this, but a little too predictable.

This commits the cardinal sin for a comic of being boring. It's a One World Under Doom book. The members of the Korean superteam of Tiger Division have to decide if Doom being in charge of the world is a good thing or not. And the answer turns out is "I don't really care".

Acho curioso como alguns materiais, principalmente da linha mutante, são barrados de serem publicados no Brasil, mas coisas aleatórias, como A Divisão de Destino, acabam sendo publicadas aqui. Será que uma equipe de super-heróis coreanos desconhecidos tem mesmo tanto apelo no Brasil ou foi o afã de publicar todo e qualquer material relacionado? A HQ não traz nomes conceituados do mercado internacional, talvez do mercado coreano. Ela não apresenta acontecimentos extremamente importantes para a compreensão da saga Um Mundo Sob Destino. Nem o roteiro nem a arte têm um destaque além do mediano. E eu só comprei porque adoro ver personagens que não são principais ganhando destaque. Mas se vale a pena comprar? Não. Vale a pena ter publicado essa matéria em detrimento de tantos outros inéditos? Não. E esse é meu veredito!

I wanted to give this book 3.5 stars. The main reason I makes it dow is I am as familiar with Tiger/Doom Division. I like the artwork and the the story is okay a bit drawn out, and coming back to me not knowing the characters very well is don't if they were in character or not for the final reveal.
Doctor Doom is the Emperor of the world and the Sorcerer Supreme. By the looks of things he is doing a pretty good job. Poverty is down, people can travel a world without borders, and regular people have access to education and medical that would have been out of their reach. The Tiger Division is divided themselves about Doom's intentions. With Sunfire offering resistance in Asia Tiger (now Doom) Division are tasked with taking him down. However the more they look into things the less people they can trust.
A good story, I would probably say read the first couple of volumes of Tiger Division before reading this to have a better understanding of the characters or you will be thrown into the deep end like I was. The book finishes with a variant cover gallery.

Good art, and I like how it started. Some really interesting characters I'm less familiar with, too. There was potential, but the story started to grow stale and the end was a little to Hallmark movie ending. And the connection up One World Under Doom was disappointing (I wanted this series to matter more the the overarching story).
More Sunfire.

A decent read. Tiger Division is a team I haven’t seen in some time. Marvel introduced them and then didn’t do much with them. I like seeing Doom’s reign in a different part of the world and how it tears this team apart. Not the biggest fan of the ending and how it plays out. But excited to see where we’ll see this team next.

Sifting between propogandist pedagogy and voicing an earnest belief, between flames that brutalize and flames that cauterize, between feuding disciplines of mutual opportunism. DOOM'S DIVISION queries whether people brave enough to scrutinize themselves are also brave enough to scrutinize their leaders.
The pan-Asian heroics of DOOM'S DIVISION constitute an excellent but spoiled example of "other" superhero comics that tend to flitter about in the background. Good characters. Compelling drama. Solid artwork to complement solid action. And an anticlimactic and wasted conclusion. Such is the life of the average reader of American comics.
On the heels of Tiger Division (2022), and on the shoulders of one of Marvel's uncountable annual events, readers return to South Korea but with an eye toward learning how the country's most notable hero team fares under the authoritarian gaze of Doctor Doom. Neat. But when a "renegade" Japanese metahuman (Sunfire) starts taking out Doom's regional allies, the Tiger Division jumps into action. The flexible but argumentative cohort of a pop star (Luna Snow, ice powers), demigod (Mr. Enigma, elemental powers), energy magic-user (Lady Bright), robotic tactician (Gun-R II), and power user (Taegugki) finds itself stuck defending increasingly dark and deformed principles. Sunfire presses the Tiger Division to discern whether it values protecting Doom's legacy more than the citizens its leader tramples.
DOOM'S DIVISION falls into the familiar ranks of books that were good but could have been spectacular. Few know what goes on in the mind of the senior editorial staff members who authorize tie-in books but steer their outcomes toward traditional "nobody wins; nobody loses" conclusions. In the case of the current comic, the Tiger Division witnesses a legitimate stress-test: Luna is having second thoughts about being a mouthpiece for the government, other Asian superheroes risk fomenting rebellion in the open, and the team's point-person bureaucrat (White Fox) is acting more and more like a despot.
That's the good news. The bad news is that the comic doesn't exactly stick to these tests of endurance. Some tests push characters to their limit (interesting), but others conclude in a ribald betrayal that is quickly walked back as a double-cross (not interesting). Some tests force characters to remember why they do what they do (interesting), but other tests toe the line of retconning the whole damn story by the end of the fifth issue (not interesting).
So, where's the value in a book like this? The expanded cast intrigues: female heroes join the fight from The Philippines (Wave, water manipulation), China (Aero, wind manipulation), and Vietnam (Karma, empath). And yet, their contributions to the story feel limited across the book's five-issue run. The art is fantastic, and the expansive and extraordinarily complicated fight scenes are worth checking out, but the story's most compelling twists and turns don't always pan out. Indeed, what's the point of a plot twist if the story simply straightens itself out again? The events of DOOM'S DIVISION don't change the lives of its characters, they simply change their color and shape.

The story: When Doctor Doom becomes Earth's new sorcerer supreme and somehow manages to convince all the world's leaders to make him our planet's ruler, Tiger Division, South Korea's superhuman response team, gets roped into being a part of a pan-Asian initiative called Doom's Division. People are doubtful, and reactions are mixed with some wanting to give Doom the benefit of the doubt, others less so. Luna Snow is assigned to make propaganda songs for the new world order, and Sunfire starts a violent resistance movement, which the newly formed Doom's Division is assigned to put a stop to.
Should you read this?: If you're reading the main One World story and wondering "Is it worth it to read a side story from another part of the world? Side stories on events like this tend to get a bad rap, so is it even going to be any good?" I'd say it's an unqualified yes from me to both those questions. In fact, I'd say almost all the side stories for One World have been remarkably high quality compared to a lot of other Marvel events. The author of this, Yoon Ha Lee, is a pretty well-known and highly regarded sci-fi novelist, and it really shows (very awesome Marvel managed to snag him to write this imo). The story, while it does start out maybe just a little slow, it really picks up and had me fully hooked by the end of the first issue. The story's got a lot of twists and turns, and does such a good job developing these characters.
The art: Pretty darn good really. It won't knock your socks off maybe, but it's very solid above average quality, I'd say.

Review of advance copy
Glad I didn’t waste money on the floppies because this trade was underwhelming. The art is serviceable but feels very corporate—slick without personality. The story never convinced me there were any real stakes; everything moves along without tension or urgency. Oddly enough, Doom never even shows up, despite the title and the supposed connection to “One World Under Doom.” That disconnect makes the whole thing feel like filler. The one bright spot? I learned about a South Korean superhero team I’d barely heard of before, which was interesting and could have been explored more. Unfortunately, the execution is iffy, and the event as a whole suffers for it. Definitely one of the lowlights of this crossover—an ambitious idea that fizzles out.

👎👎 gotta say it's pretty damn offensive to weaponize utilize the robust history of mass protest against fascism in the Korean peninsula in service of.... A fictional color revolution because doctor doom conquered earth and made healthcare and education free for everyone. Poorly thought out, poorly executed, and ultimately just an excuse to shoehorn Luna snow into an event because no one at marvel expected her to be huge in marvel rivals apparently.

I actually thought this was pretty good. I would’ve given 3.5 stars if I could. I think this team has potential (even if I like it less than the agents of atlas) but the cast is too big. I thought the focus on propaganda through Luna snow was interesting and gave her some depth she has not had in any other appearances. I also think this was one of the few OWUD tie ins that actually feels like it exists alongside the main series’ narrative and world-building and enhances it

I picked up “Doom’s Division” entirely because it was written by Yoon Ha Lee. I don’t follow mainstream superhero comics and so was not particularly familiar with the Dr. Doom taking over the world plot that this fits into. I wasn’t familiar with any of the characters beforehand.
The story isn’t horrible, and doesn’t rely on you knowing the characters ahead of time, but it was also pretty lackluster, if not typical. The Korean flavor of the primary heroes is the main selling point.

I really want to give the pan asian characters a chance but they lack any personality and this story adds nothing to the ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM story and it isn't a story on it's own. I wish someone saw more potential here.

Nice art with nice coloring all the way through, but the story could've been told in single issue format.
April 13, 2026
Rounding up because I don't know many of these characters. It's possible I would've enjoyed the book more if I weren't so confused. Also it is nice to see an Asian super team.

There is quite a bit of action, movement, but like a three card monte game, you can flip cards all day long and never get the red queen.

This one weirdly worked well for me. Good story and great art and I liked the characters.
