Team Marvel Q and A: Name Your Favorite Super Scientist!

January 13th, 2017 Nicole Campos Exclusives, Interview, Marvel Gear & Goods

The current Marvel Gear & Goods theme is “Super Science,” celebrating some of the most legendary characters with skills in the science realm in the Marvel Universe!  We are incredibly excited for Marvel fans to get their hands on this selection featuring Black Panther, Ant-Man, M.O.D.O.K. and more classic characters.

Everyone’s got a favorite here on our team at Loot Crate, but we wanted to ask the folks at the House of Ideas themselves who they think is the coolest scientist in that universe – here are their answers, straight from Marvel HQ!:

Doctor Doom (Marvel)

Doctor Doom (Marvel)

“Bah! In the realm of scientific innovation, none are the equal of Doom! That you even dare pose such a question invites immediate incineration!”
– Tom Brevoort, Senior Vice President & Executive Editor, Marvel Comics; @TomBrevoort

“Although she’s new to the Marvel Universe, Riri Williams has to be my pick. Not only is she just 15 and at MIT on a scholarship, but she designs and builds an Iron Man suit on her own!”
– Judy Stephens, Producer for Marvel Digital Media; @OMG_Dj_Judy

“Nadia Pym, the new Wasp–she combines science and creativity in a really wonderful way, and she’s so enthusiastic about her work. The sky’s the limit for her!”
– Alanna Smith, Assistant Editor, Marvel Comics; @AlannaWrites

“The honor goes to Doctor Zola – without him, HYDRA would have never advanced in scientific accomplishments as far as they have. Also, who wouldn’t want to upload their unstoppable consciousness when faced with mortality?”
– Christine Dinh, Assistant Editor, Marvel Digital Media; @chrissypedia

MODOK (Marvel)

M.O.D.O.K. (Marvel)

“I gots to go with M.O.D.O.K. He’s big and beautiful, and so sure of his love for SCIENCE that he scienced himself to the max.”
– Ryan Penagos, Vice President & Executive Editor, Marvel Digital Media; @AgentM

Moon Girl (Marvel)

Moon Girl (Marvel)

“I’ve gotta say Lunella Lafayette, aka Moon Girl. She might be young, but she is determined and the smartest in the Universe! Who says there’s an age-minimum for the curious and capable?”
– Sana Amanat, Director of Content Development, Marvel Comics; @MiniB622

“What can I say? Riri Williams stole my (iron)heart! She’s a teen genius with great fashion sense… especially when it comes to her choice of mech suit.”
– Lorraine Cink, Host and Writer of THWIP! The Big Marvel Show & The Marvel Minute; @lorrainecink

“I like Howard Stark because of his mustache, and Bruce Banner because he is mean.”
– Blake Garris, Manager, Video & Content Production, Marvel Digital Media; @blakegarris

“Doctor Doom.  Because…he’s DOCTOR DOOM.”
– Axel Alonso, Editor-in-Chief, Marvel Comics; @axelalonsomarv
