Those who follow Marvel comics know just how big this is, the smartest person in the universe is a real title within the community and Lunella is here to take over. Mark Paniccia, one of Marvel’s senior editors told Buzzfeed that this argument has been going on for ages.

“There’s always been a healthy debate about which super-genius is the smartest. Is it Tony Stark? Reed Richards? Victor Von Doom? Hank Pym? Amadeus Cho? The answer is gonna shock the Marvel Universe when it’s revealed to be 9-year-old Inhuman Lunella Lafayette,” said Paniccia.

According to Reed’s Twitter, Issue 9 of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur are out today. If there was ever a time to get into comic books, it’s now.

Flex, Lunella!

hell yeah. theyre gonna have to execute some next-level shyt to make it justifiably stick. but it's an interesting sell and the character has been portrayed fairly well so far. not as well as miles and ms. marvel. but she has potential.

if the story works, i'm with it. if not, fukk it. if they completely botch it and show no sensitivity towards the characters, the people, myself included, will let them know. but imo marvel, currently, has earned some faith with how they handle minority characters. way more faith than DC, that's for damn sure.

I'm feeling kinda about this too... I'm all for black people shining, but something tells me that they're just looking to further distance themselves from anything Fantastic Four related beccause of the movie rights. Maybe it's just the conspiracy theorist in me.

 

[Cat piss martini]

I'm fukkin with it...
Imagine Tony and Banner dropping
by the playground for tips on shyt.

Or an aqualad. Never forget the fukk shyt that was the black version of aqualad (and him being gay has never been the problem).
