George Tarleton

Dr. George Tarleton (ジョージ・タールトン, Jōji Tāruton), also later known as "M.O.D.O.K." (モードック, Mōdokku), is fictional character and antagonist of the Marvelous DC's Justice Avengers series created by C. B. Cebulski and Jim Lee.

He is the technorganic leader of A.I.M. with tremendous mental powers and advanced weapons, the enemy of Iron Man, and one of the leaders of the Cabal Light. He had substantial mutagenic medical experimentations originally designed to increase his intelligence.

While successful, this experimentation results in a freakishly overdeveloped head, causing George's signature look and use of a flying chair for mobility for the rest of his life. After the experiments, he rebels against his masters and takes control of AIM.

"I will rid the world of superpowers...even if it has to end with me."

Against his father's advice, George adopted it, believing that he could tame it.

After the incident, Tarleton came to believe that creatures only acted on nature and couldn't be tamed.
