Reed pointed out a flaw in Doom's calculations, but Doom arrogantly ignored his warnings, feeling Reed was trying to upstage him, likely due to their dislike for each other. The machine exploded, scarring Doom's face. He was soon expelled for conducting unethical experiments. From then on, he blamed Reed Richards for the destruction of his face as well as his expulsion. Later we see him go back to his home and try to take over Latveria and get revenge I Will add more story to the characters is cast on disclaimer fantastic four is not big part of this story
