Jeff Parker (writer/artist of THE INTERMAN) is writing a MODOK arc for the children's AVENGERS book, and he had this to say in a Wizard interview:
>> And understanding the motivation of MODOC was of primary concern for the writer, who had to tweak the giant head’s name ever so slightly for the all-ages title.
“It’s normally MODOK, with the final letter standing for Killing,” explained the writer. “They said, ‘You can’t have him kill because it’s all-ages.’ So what I did was go with the spelling that originally substituted a C, for Mental Organism Designed Only for Computing. Of course, that didn’t seem scary enough, so we’re not using Computing, but Conquest.”
*lol* Computing & conquest, not killing. Love that. Brubaker had his MODOCs 'designed only for Combat' over in a recent Captain America arc (around issue 8 or so).
This is the story arc that Cameron did a cover for, right? (with all-MODOK versions of the Avengers) |
