Stan Lee wrote him as this amazing flawed character, always being undone by his inflated ego and thin skin. Over the years he’s been portrayed as both a menace and a joke and I think our show is much more interested in exploring him as a human being. A human being who’s also a Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing! At the end of the day M.O.D.O.K. is a giant-headed, petulant, insecure, egomaniac with zero social skills. - Patton Oswalt

[@DariusVincentHughes]

I’ve always thought MODOK had one of the coolest character designs in comic book history. I don’t think he’s ever been written to his full potential though.

[@tomatoesofdoom]

If done right MODOK would be the opposite of the corny villian. He's a test subject that has become so grotesque and reality-warping powerful that the facility which created him started bending to his will. Could you imagine walking into the room of a MODOK who scared his creators into serving him... as they sheepishly do his bidding while completely understanding what he is, how he came to be and what could've been done to stop him... There's also the angle that he's been corrupted so there's suffering, hatred, redemption, revenge, love (for science)... there's a lot of potential for emotion with the character as well. I'm picturing right now a seriously tortured MODOK that unnerves the viewer, someone filled with emotions but also a complete lack of humanity. I kind of wish that was real as I think about it right now. It would most likely be one of the most unsettling environments you could imagine.

[@kidz4p509]

If MODOK appeared in the MCU, they should make him look somewhat intimidating, like decaying features, or something like that. In short, an appearance that would make him be taken seriously.

[@ZeroAeon]

How MODOK was created varies in series, games and movies. In the past series, he was created by AIM. In Marvel's Avengers game, he is George Tarleton, an Inhuman scientist given Captain America's blood to survive and become strong. In Ant-man and the Wasp Quantumania, he is Darren Cross after his suit's mechanism got trashed and his body physique became disproportionate while going subatomic, and found by Kang's loyalists to become the "ultimate weapon".

I originally thought Arnim Zola as he appeared in The Winter Soldier was M.O.D.O.K. But upon further research, I came to the conclusion that I was wrong.

The greatest media interpretation of M.O.D.O.K outside of the comic books will always be the Avengers Earth Mightiest Heroes version.

Umm, Maybe I Am Again Showing My Age, But MODOK created the Cosmic Cube! Look at Namor #49 I believe. Create a Quantum Force Field for at least 48 hours and the power of a Beyonder will enter our realm. That power, is millions of times greater than our universe. But I will say, his goal wasn’t to destroy everything, he was just curious....

Given all the tech they have, why not just give him a giant robotic body to match the size of his head? It'd seem a lot more useful and practical than the wimpy limbs he's got now.

[@teddyblack2833]

does he really need the limbs. I mean he's got telekensis and telephathy. He doesn't actually need to grab anything.

[@JioVega]

Still, it would help. Flying around in a rocket powered chair would be unorthodox and clumsy.

[@ultracat9853]

I could totally see that with a giant robot body wrecking havoc and when his robot body is almost destroyed he can eject from his robot head and go back to the chair flying thing

[@Xurek]

BikouTenma that would defeat the purpose of the character. MODOK represents what someone would be like if they depended on intellectual powers alone. His weakness is the human elements which include not only limbs, but a social aspect as well. Comic book characters are not created to be the best possible villains/heroes, all of them have major flaws!
