The Big Bang Theory and the Marvel Universe

[Terquem]

If the four primary male characters of The Big Bang Theory were simultaneously characters of the Marvel Universe, which supra-geniuses would they be?

I would think that Sheldon would be Mr. Fantastic (Reed Richards) but I could be wrong.

Given the other, of many, super-scientists of the Marvel Universe, Hank McCoy, Henry Pym, Tony Stark, and others, who do you think Sheldon, Howard, Leonard and Rajesh would most likely be?

Howard is a less suave, more horny Tony Stark. Raj's awkwardness and lack of ability to relate to romantic partners reminds me of Hank Pym. I would argue that Leonard is more like Mr. Fantastic than Sheldon, instead I nominate Sheldon for Doctor Doom. :)

[Terquem]

Nah Doom is more of an applied physics guy, whereas Sheldon is all theory, and that says Reed Richards to me (of course Richards was sort of good at both)

Sheldon would end up as the Leader (Hulk's opposite number), out of a sheer desire to provide crime with an efficient intellectual basis rather than any desire to do evil. ("Before I came along they were just committing crimes at random. It was anarchy!") Raj would end up as the Mole Man - it's the only role that would never require him to beautiful women (and as far as I can recall, the M.U. doesn't have any other kind of woman.) And Howard? Howard would end up in the witness protection program after what he said to She-Hulk.

That leaves Leonard, the only one socially adjusted enough to function in society - which I guess means he'd technically be a super-hero. He'd be, uhhh, let's say Hank Pym (the sane version)... but he'd wish he were Tony Stark.

This is all moot, of course, since Sheldon would insist on being Batman ("Copyrights are irrelevant! I'M BATMAN!")

[Terquem]

well, that's one way to look at it, but not really asking what "Super" Hero or Villian they would be, but what Scientist (and yes most of the scientists have alter-ego's of one kind or another, but really wondering where their science knowledge would place them).

Off topic kind of but just love this show.
