[[M.O.D.O.K.]] is a [[Marvel Comics]] super-villain created by [[Stan Lee]] and [[Jack Kirby]]. Making his [[Silver Age]] debut in ''Tales of Suspense #93'' (September, 1967), M.O.D.O.K. has been featured in over 40 years of Marvel canon. While originally a foe of [[Captain America (comics)|Captain America]], M.O.D.O.K is not tied to a single hero's [[Rogues Gallery]]. He has battled the likes of [[The Falcon]], [[Nick Fury]] and [[SHIELD]], [[Iron Man]], [[Sub-Mariner|Namor]], the [[Incredible Hulk]]. rival villains Mad Thinker and Yellow Claw, [[Ms. Marvel]], the Champions ([[X-Men/Characters/The Original Team|Angel, Iceman]], [[Black Widow (comics)|Black Widow]], Darkstar, [[Ghost Rider]], and [[The Incredible Hercules]]), [[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|the Thing]], and the Serpent Society. The later group managed to assassinate him back in 1986. But M.O.D.O.K. was revived in 1995 and has remained a prominent villain since then. In 2009, IGN.com ranked M.O.D.O.K. #100 on its [[IGN Top One Hundred Comic Book100 Villains]] list.
 
A lowly technician working for Advanced Idea Mechanics (A.I.M.), George Tarleton was nothing special. One day, Tarleton is picked by A.I.M.'s Scientist Supreme to be genetically altered into a living computer code-named M.O.D.O.C.: '''M'''ental '''O'''rganism '''D'''esigned '''O'''nly for '''C'''omputing. The experiment was a success: Tarleton's brain became enormous, granting him superhuman intelligence and vast psionic powers. Driven mad by the procedures performed on him, M.O.D.O.C. kills his masters in cold blood. Enjoying the slaughter, M.O.D.O.C. renames himself M.O.D.O.K: '''M'''ental '''O'''rganism '''D'''esigned '''O'''nly for '''K'''illing. Having eliminated the existing command structure, M.O.D.O.K. takes over A.I.M, declaring himself the new Scientist Supreme.
