| Origin |
| An agent-technician for
Advanced Idea Mechanics, George Tarleton was randomly and involuntarily
selected for an experiment in controlled mutation.
After the process Tarleton became grotesquely deformed and inhumanly
intelligent. Enraged, Tarleton killed the scientists who subjected him
to the experiment and assumed control of
A.I.M.
as the Mental Organism
Designed Only For Killing (MODOK). |
