sorry to bring this up again guys...but im just trying to get my head around this all
i agree that reed and doom are the top 2 smartest humans, no doubt, thats probably a universal agreement amongst marvel fans..with hardly any dispute
but having tony as number 3 over t'challa...i always thought t'challa was number 3 since
1. T'challa seems to be more of a "polymath" than Tony, but maybe Tony is still smarter than him though in raw intellect
2. T'challa has done dimension/advanced science like Reed and Doom, "shadow physics" and the like...and im sure Tony has done similar things if not better?
3. it seems like T'challa has outsmarted Tony more so than vice versa in terms of their confrontations with each other?
3.
4. but one of the things is that T'challa is always with Reed as his main science partner..more so than Tony
im not trying to say T'challa deseves the number 3 spot or anything..im just trying to wrap my head around it thats all
