Puzzle Contest Answer
2007-07-12 14:19:12






I CAN ONLY EXPRESS MY LOVE FOR YOU IN CONTEST FORM, INTERWEB!!

The chance to submit answers to my brain teaser ended at midnight this past Tuesday. My Interweb minions are still sifting through the correct answers to randomly select a winner who will be drawn into SVTU:M11 #2.

IN THE INTERIM I WILL, IN MY INFINITE MERCY, REVEAL THE CORRECT ANSWER TO YOU!!

The puzzle consisted of this this picture beside the following five-number sequence:

001
164
034
141
256
???

The trick was to deduce the sixth number in the sequence.

The five numbers of the combination are the issue numbers of the first appearances of the six characters in the picture.

Chameleon first appeared in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1.

Deadly Nightshade first appeared in CAPTAIN AMERICA AND THE FALCON #164.

Living Laser first appeared in AVENGERS #34.

Mentallo first appeared in STRANGE TALES #141.

Puma first appeared in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #256.

Therefore, the last number in the sequence must relate to the only other character on the cover -- I, MODOK -- who first appeared in TALES TO ASTONISH #94.

The answer is 094.

THE ONLY THING I HAVE TO SAY IS, WHY I AM SO SMALL ON THE COVER OF MY OWN FIRST APPEARANCE?!? YOU CAN BARELY SEE ME BEHIND (finger quotes) "CAP'S" KNEE!! RIP-OFF!!!

I guess it could be worse. Mentallo and Chameleon don't even appear on the covers of their first appearances.

The three of us are going to go out and get drunk tonight and complain about it.

The winner with the correct answer shall be posted here soon!
You, Mentallo, and Chameleon drunk in the same room. I don't know whether to be amused or to be worried.

You're lookin' pretty chunkified in Ms Marvel last week. Well, more so than usual. Are you sure the "C" in MODOC doesn't stand for "cupcakes"?

Living Laser! Get back to work!
Don't you know the comic we star in together comes out tomorrow? What are you doing posting on this blog? Get some rest! I need you at your best by 001!

Personman101, there is this guy who is obsessed with chips I'd like you to meet.

O great calculator or calamity...
I beg of you, please continue your blog!!! This world is in desperate need of MORE MODOK, and you, o colossal cranium, are the only one who can provide that.

I would be particularly interested in having you tell us what went on "off-panel" that really turned you from a path of victory in your many encounters with Superpansies like Captain America (the cur...) and the like. Can you enlighten us?

Are you crying? Are you CRYING? There's no crying on MODOK! Pull yourself together or take a BRAIN BLAST to the...... dangit...... brain.

About this blog:
BLOGDOK is the psychotic ramblings of a Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing. Or is it merely a decoy for a far more sinister plot? I, MODOK, have over 2,459 wholly separate plans for world domination running simultaneously in my highly advanced 144-lobed brain, so not even I know for sure!

About the author:
I, MODOK, first appeared in Tales of Suspense #94, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby ("If This Be MODOK", Oct. '67) and I have been the butt of jokes about my giant head ever since. But now I shall have my revenge! IN BLOG FORM!!!
