Bulma built a time machine, and a radar that can track Dragoballz in far away Galaxies, she is no dummy.

You never saw Tony Stark invent candy that irresistibly compells you to go to the bathroom.

IIRC Bluma reverse engineered a broken alien spaceship when she was 5 years old, in like 10 minutes.

Also created her own Laser gun at the same age.

@supergoku17: @klasstyt: Future Bulma created a time machine, using tech more advanced than the one in the present timeline. And for the record, Tony also built a time machine, and he wasn't as nearly as smart at the time as he is now.

Those capsules sure would be handy. Your house, your car collection, and w/e the hell else in your pockets.

Dunno enough about Tony, someone will have to list his inventions. Bulma invented a time machine, gravity machine, interstellar space craft, dragon ball detector, the machine to turn Vegeta into a SS4.

I do believe I remember something about Tony inventing rocket-powered roller skates doe.

@mike_fowler: I am pretty sure that present Bulma said that Future Bulma used some tech that has yet to be developed, during DBS's Goku Black arc. That is why her future version sent her a guidebook full of notes to help her repair and/or provide energy for Trunks' time machine, right?

@krleavenger: Yea, and she found out it was something she was already in the cusp of discovery (of the necessary fuel I think it was). The only difference here is that Future Bulma is just that, future her (somewhat, parallel timeline and all that jazz). Tech advances with time, that's obvious, like in the real world, the point is she has been shown to have done it.

@thecount: The thing is, Tony has done it as well, while being younger, with less advanced tech, less years of experience and was not as smart as he is now. With Bulma it's the opposite actually.

A little piece of Stark tech once accidentally traveled to a society of barbarians and cavemen who, after discovering and studying his tech, ended up becoming Type III civilization capable of time travel, interdimensional travel, and ruled/colonized the rest of their galaxy. They were on the brink of self-extinction from this technology/knowledge after only FIVE generations after discovery of his technology. He's had Captain's of the Kree army visit Earth in order to bid at an illegal auction of stolen Stark tech, he's disabled the Kree's Supreme Intelligence with nanites, he's hacked and taken full control of the Kree security systems, and he's built stealth technology capable of avoiding Kree scanners from detection. This is a race that has Omega Level weaponry like the Kree Nega Bands or Ronan's hammer (which is capable of hurting Thor, rearranging atoms, creating invulnerable force-fields, freezing, gravity manipulation, telekinesis, time displacement bubble, teleportation, etc.). They've even built a device which could generate localized black holes. It's said that the Kree are about 10,000 years ahead of humans technologically. The Supreme Intelligence is one of the smartest beings in the Universe. They also created a device that can destroy multiple galaxies. The Kree and their forces (alongside Shi'Ar and others) were able to hold off Lord Mar-Vell's army. They were so powerful, they were able to hold off Celestials and even kill one of them. Kree tech is also advanced enough to overpower Annihilus's forces and their tech is so advanced, Annihilus used it to capture and restrain Galactus. They were also in a war with Skrulls for millions of years. The Skrulls themselves (who Stark has also hacked before) had advanced enough tech to counter Doctor Strange's spells and Black Bolt's voice. They are crazy advanced, yet he and his soldiers came to Earth to bid on and purchase Stark technology? Couldn't get past his stealth or hacking? Characters like Reed Richards, Doctor Doom, Hank Pym, etc. have not been above either complimenting Stark's technology as impressive/extremely sophisticated or they straight up used (in Doom's case stole) his tech in order to meet their needs. Hell, even the High Evolutionary stole some of Tony Stark's tech in order to go on to steal the Silver Surfer's power cosmic. Tony has built designs for over 600 planet ending devices, one of which was a dyson sphere which was only 2% completed and it still destroyed a planet as well as Kree, Shi'ar, Skrull, Badoon, and Annihilus armies in one blast.

She was in a dystopia where most people probably struggled just to find food. She had almost no resources to work with.

I'm sorry to be blunt but that's just a bad argument. It was only 20 years into the future, and the whole world went to shit even before the timelines split, which would put a fast end to any significant advances in global technology anyway so it might as well not even be 20 years into the future. People were living in shacks and ghost towns and starving.

@the_hajduk: And yet present Bulma had an extremely hard time repairing the time machine despite the fact that she was taking notes from her future self. Besides, logically future Bulma repaired all that future tech, or else she wouldn't even be able to build it. Damaged or not she still had better resources than her present self.

Extremely hard time? Didn't it take her like, a few days?

@the_hajduk: Based on her dialogue, it was. Sure, she fixed it in few days, but she was still taking notes from her future self. Tony created a time machine by himself, and he wasn't as smart as he is now (while Bulma who created time machine was older). And people who are not as smart as Tony also created a time machine.

Bulma was able to repair killer android machine who were stronger than frieza. Build a time machine when the world had gone to shit thereby the technological advancement would have gone to a crawl. Was able to build capsule technology than made her family rich. Is able to create radar that can locate objects across the universe.

Have to agree. Stark has done some impressive things. He's not as smart as Pym, but he has done a lot of impressive things.

You expect me to remember the issue of Iron-Man?!!!!! Its not like Pym only came to Iron-Man's rescue with his super genius only once. Pym has been using his superior intelligence to come to Stark's help gazillions of times. Here are but a few examples.

Stark is really smart; just not as smart as Pym. Pym has saved his butt (and other parts) numerous times. But my main point was before you distracted me - Stark is really smart.

Do I expect you to actually cite the issues you post your out of context scans from? No, of course not. Why would I ever want you to back up your lowballing with actual proof or logic? Why have integrity? I've already debunked every single one of those scans already, so just because you spam them over and over like a child that doesn't somehow make them valid. You have already lost all credibility by posting a scan of James Rhodes and passing it off as Tony Stark. Why don't you stick with your ad nauseam style debating on the off-topic section of comic vine? Battles and comic books don't quite suit you.

@straja: Tony Stark with less than a week of prep built a gun that could blow up the cosmic entity Pheonix in 5 and has cloned Thor via just his DNA. Has Bulma done anything close to that?

Merry Christmas to you!

I found the issue of Iron Man you asked about - 194 - and you were correct it was Rhodey. I was mistaken. What I am not mistaken about is that Stark has called on Pym numerous times for his help when he didn't know what to do. You suggested that my scans were all out of context. Here is the full page from IM 108. You can see for yourself that Stark has sought out Pym's help to save his girlfriend:

No Caption Provided

And if it had not been for Pym intervening - Tony Stark would now be Antoinette Stark. I am definitely not making up the fact that Pym gave Stark his "manhood" back.

But back to the topic at hand. Your dis of me does not change my mind that Stark is smarter than Bulma. Stark has a long history of incredible feats such as splitting the Phoenix force.

@brucerogers: Bulma created a watch that can morph her height and weight,created a time machine,fixed unknown android,fixed unknown alien technology (scouter) created drone that will follow goku during his adventures just via trash that was found in master roshi house...created dragon radar,created universal dragon radar,she created a candy that can make a host poop via voice commands...

In terms of greatest need she created time machine,after that she was no longer needed which means if it is up to bulma to create something in order to save the earth she will create it...Also she and her father developed capsules....

if plot ever asks for bulma to create someting,she will do it...

@just_sayin: What a surprise. Like I said, if you came here to embarrass me or Tony Stark as an intellectual you just epically failed and your credibility is shot. Anyone that reads what we say in this thread from here on out saw this and will keep that in mind as they continue to read your out of context scans you post. If they want to see me debunking you some more I posted a link to that thread too. But by all means keep spamming the same images and horrible arguments that I've addressed already. Maybe, just maybe, it will save you the embarrassment of being wrong. Merry Christmas. ??

Uh... Many people below the intelligence of Tony has done this. Hell, Black Panther who is below Tony in intelligence has created something far more superior than a time machine(Nowhere room?). A height and weight morph is something that the villains of Spider-Man who are scientist can do.

@noone1996: When you claim that you've disproved my claim Stark is not as smart as Pym, you are the one damaging your own credibility.

Stark has far more impressive feats than Bulma. For instance, Stark invented armor that became an AI That's impressive. It was so human like that it wanted to, how can I say this delicately, put it's electric cord in Stark's outlet (IM vol 3, 26 - and climaxing in 30).

No Caption Provided

Stark has done some impressive things with AI. But Pym is considered the God of AI. When Vision shutdown (Avengers 93), Stark thought he was dead and was ready to throw him away. Fortunately, a true genius was there, and Pym went into Vision, fought his internal defenses and fixed him.

Stark is smarter than Bulma. But he is always turning to Pym with the hard science stuff.
