One thing that always bothered me about Doom.. why does he wear that holster? His armor can fire bolts of energy that knock The Thing into the next county, he owns more weapons of mass destruction than the USAF, and he's packing a S&W Model 29?

Wait, Metallica did that song too? I just know the Bob Seger version.

Backup in case his suit loses power.

Also when you want to intimidate people a big pistol works better than your index finger.

Oh, yeah. Great cover.

They have an entire album of covers (they aren't called The Biggest Garage Band in the World for nothing, you know.)

Doom carries a pistol to use on people whom he considers unworthy of death via his armor.

Because it looks cool.

Beat me to it.

I think I saw one comic where he whipped it out, but it was a broomhandle mauser

Sometimes the use of the sidearm gives that personal touch.

It also can leave intact bodies--for whatever reason--not screw up all the radios and TV's in the area, leave someone wounded but alive, and allow Doom to interrogate by shooting each joint from the toes all the way up one at a time.

Just some ideas. Can't say I ever really read any of the comics.

But I must ask, is the cover superior to the original?

[gridlore.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm... The cover lacks the haunting saxophone, but has Metallica's driving anger.

I love them both, honestly.

One cover on there that exceeds the original is Astronomy. The Metallica take is less muddied-down with over-production.

Because nothing says "imposing power" like a pistol built in 1896 and notorious for jamming.

He built a blaster that looked like a C96. That's gotta be it.
