I actually really like this. Doom is so arrogant in his power that he can't even conceive that a brutish barbarian is any threat to him. The feeling of despair he must experience when the broekn blade first nacks into his neck would have been profound.

The argument I suppose is that even if you've been fatally shot, you might still experience the fall briefly before you die. You can't really say this is the case for Doom though - there's no way he could survive long enough to experience his head being thrown down the steps of the temple!
