Average
technician George Tarleton found his fate forever changed thanks to a random
selection by his boss, the Scientist Supreme of A.I.M., who needed a unique,
bio-engineered "living computer" in order to plumb the mysteries of the
Cosmic Cube. Tarleton was subjected to hideous experiments, mutating his body
into a massive-headed being possessing superhuman intelligence and extraordinary
psionic powers, and the process drove him mad. Given the code-name MODOC
("Mobile Organism Designed Only for Computing"), Tarleton instead
turned on his superiors, slaying them all and declaring himself Scientist
Supreme. Moreover, he changed his name to MODOK, with the "K" standing now
for "Killing."
