    for those upset Dr. Strange was not one of the top 10 most intelligent heroes don't worry. I think he makes this one

    I still think Marvel should make Sue Storm a medical doctor.

    Is this ranked?

    Coz I notice McCoy ranks above pym here, but pym ranks above hank in the smartness list

    Either there's no real ranking, no real internal logic applied, or its all nonsense

    Whatever the reason, this just makes me think the marvel ratified lists are not created with any coherent logic nor real integrity, but because it's just where they want to place certain characters to sell interest in them

    I'm ok with it, I just want honesty about it

    No time for them now

    If it's not ranked then that's different

    Re watched it, sorry I realise this is really a promo for the bbc

    No wonder it don't follow the logic set down in another list

    Gotta say marvel don't fill me with confidence in these lists, seems there more promos for characters or stories than anything else

    That all said I'm surprised adam brashir is not on the list

    While we're complaining about who we didn't see on the list, I would like to propose Morbius the Living Vampire. He was instrumental in finding the cure for the virus in Spider-Island, he brought Frank Castle back from the dead, he's developed a freaking cure for the damn zombie virus, and Reed Richards has consulted with him on several matters.

    Plus he basically cured his own leukaemia...sort of...I meam, it's not actively killing him anymore.

    Morbius is good but he ain't top 10 doctors in Marvel material.

    don't see it unless it was a shrink. She was a counselor of sorts in the foundation.

    She wasn't, the only one who had any sort of role was Reed. She was just being the mother of the team and foundation like she usually does.

    I can see her being a medical doctor, this list shows that Marvel is definitely lacking them. Only a few were in medical field. It suits her personality, powers, and history of her father being a surgeon. They even have a way to shorten the process now as years have passed for her while away with Reed and the kids.

    She was not in tittle but in action. You can belittle it by calling it being the mother (not that mother is an easy job) but she was the one who calmed the kids talked people down etc.

    The list does not show a lack of MDs it just lists picks for top ten doctors of all types. Even with that Pym and McCoy are Bio-Chem they know a great deal about the human body and how to heal it . That is why it made so much sense for McCoy to stay with the injured Jarvis in No Surrender (for a recent example).

    I don't see how traveling through space and universes gets time for med school which is what 6 years not counting any speciality rotations.

    I did not belittle anything. She wasn't a counselor to the team, she was just wrangling the unruly children (and adults).
    These are comics, they could give her the qualification and training in a matter of minutes if they wanted. All in all, It's a profession that suits the character and leads to interesting avenues for her both in and out if the team.
    With the film synergy going on and Marvel getting the FF back, it's better to do this soon and craft a good story out of it instead of retconning it into her history.
