    M.O.D.O.K. 2.0 last edited by SlamAdams on 10/20/20 06:06PM View full history

    Origin

    After the Hulks destroyed the cluster of brains controlling the Scorched Earth program, another program was initiated which placed the last of the cloned M.O.D.O.K. brains into its new body. This brain was allowed to grow independently from the others. This self proclaimed M.O.D.O.K. Superior considers himself to be far more reasonable and evolved than his predecessor. Being that he embraces his purpose, rather than George Tarleton who was forced into the role, he believes he will succeed where his predecessor failed. Scorched Earth was actually a distraction to keep the heroes busy while he was created.

    Creation

    M.O.D.O.K. Superior was created by Jeff Parker and debuted in Hulk #29.

    Character Evolution

    M.O.D.O.K. Superior's personality is nothing like the previous M.O.D.O.K. His LMDs approach him with caution as they are used to the outbursts of their previous master. M.O.D.O.K. Superior assures them he is far more reasonable than Tarleton and believes he was always trying to overcompensate for something. He keeps his word on business exchanges and even believes himself to be falling in love.

The two men are shocked to have been paid with real money and left alive. M.O.D.O.K. unleashes Zzzax on a small town and watches as Red Hulk tries to save them. M.O.D.O.K. is able to control Zzzax and has him apprehend Red Hulk while he makes him an offer to work together again. When Red Hulk declines, M.O.D.O.K. threatens to destroy Annie. He is confused as to why Red Hulk cares so much for this particular LMD model as he does not see anything special about her. Red Hulk is able to tap into a mind link he previously shared with Zzzax and overrides M.O.D.O.K.'s control. He electrocutes M.O.D.O.K. who leaves to recalculate his plans.

    Planet of Fear

    M.O.D.O.K. retreats to his base beneath New York City and reprograms Zzzax so that he will not be taken over again.

M.O.D.O.K. pauses his advance on the Red Hulk due to Fear Itself. He watches as Red Hulk battles a possessed Thing. M.O.D.O.K. finds the same cloaked figure again observing the battle and realizes it is waiting to move in and kill Red Hulk. M.O.D.O.K. steps in right before Black Fog moves in to kill Red Hulk and saves him. The Thing heads towards M.O.D.O.K. who phases out of sync with time to avoid being detected. He see's Sin's army advancing towards the city and vows to save it. He saves some civilians from the Nazi-mech bots but is then attacked by Black Fog. M.O.D.O.K. manages to blow off one of Black Fog's arms before Zero/One calls him off. M.O.D.O.K. meets Zero/One and immediately recognizes her as a creation from the Omnisapient virus. She wishes to know more from him and connects to him with a mind link. They recognize themselves as beings of the future and join their forces to stop Sin's army. Throughout the heat of the battle M.O.D.O.K. believes he is falling in love with her.

    Avengers vs. X-Men

    M.O.D.O.K. Superior comes after a former A.I.M. scientist named Doctor Udaku who was being escorted by the Wakandan Ambassador to the Pentagon because he was going to betray his former organization and reveal a number of their secrets. M.O.D.O.K. attacks his target and comes into conflict with the Scarlet Witch who causes him to misfire on Dr. Udaku. M.O.D.O.K. has his mutated minions attack the Scarlet Witch and she is quickly surrounded until Ms. Marvel and Spider-Woman of the Avengers come to her aid. M.O.D.O.K., his minions and several A.I.M. soldiers are quickly dispatched and easily defeated.

    Powers & Abilities

    Though the extent of M.O.D.O.K. Superior's upgrades have yet to be seen, he appears to possess the same psionic capabilities as his predecessor. Being a clone it is expected that he retains all the same attributes as M.O.D.O.K. He has traded in his hover chair for one possessing several spider like legs. The legs are also capable of flight.
