*Something’s a bit familiar about the new Marvel character MODAAK.
In the first Spider-Gwen comic book published on June 9th (offering a fresh take on the Spider-Man origin story), a new villain named MODAAK (Mental Organism Designed as America’s King) is introduced from author Jason Latour.
According to the blog Obsev.com, MODAAK lives on the U.S./Mexican border, he hates “foreign filth,” and his orange head is so ‘uuge that it can’t be supported by its legs. And if the inspiration for this character still doesn’t ring a bell, the man’s face looks exactly like Donald Trump’s.
“He is also armed with realistically tiny hands which, just like in real life, are a source of chagrin for the supervillain,” writes Obsev.com’s Luke Fegenbush:
Fortunately for the fictional United States, MODAAK was (spoiler alert) stopped by Captain America, which feels extra appropriate coming from Earth 65’s black, female Cap. In this universe, at least, he was stopped before dominating the world.
Trump, acting against his usual M.O., did not comment on how both the supervillain and comic book creation share an orange, pouty face or similar political agendas. But it doesn’t take a maniacal supervillain to know that this isn’t something you want to call attention to.
