    Major Spoilers Question of the Day: Scary Dentist Edition

    Matthew PetersonBy Matthew PetersonApril 25, 20183 Comments1 Min Read

    Thanks to a sudden busted molar, my dentist-fearing wife ended up with an emergency appointment at the oral surgeon recently, and I honestly think she would rather have faced a super-villain.  For my part, I pretty much only go to the DDS offices when pain drives me there, but that’s more a matter of budgeting and general lack of funds than it is one of fear.  (It also means that I’ve had five different root canals, so the next one is half off!)  Still, now that she’s got heavy painkillers, I really think she could square off with Ultron or The Living Laser without skipping a beat, leading to today’s maxillofacial query…

    The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) reminds Faithful Spoilerites that is it Marvel Universe canon that Victor Von Doom has a dentist cousin named Bob who is scarier even than he, asking: Are you more afraid of Doctor Doom or a dentist?

    Once upon a time, there was a young nerd from the Midwest, who loved Matter-Eater Lad and the McKenzie Brothers... If pop culture were a maze, Matthew would be the Minotaur at its center. Were it a mall, he'd be the Food Court. Were it a parking lot, he’d be the distant Cart Corral where the weird kids gather to smoke, but that’s not important right now... Matthew enjoys body surfing (so long as the bodies are fresh), writing in the third person, and dark-eyed women. Amongst his weaponry are such diverse elements as: Fear! Surprise! Ruthless efficiency! An almost fanatical devotion to pop culture! And a nice red uniform.

      Were he real, I’d be more afraid of Doctor Doom.

      If I go to a dentist I know I am going, because I am seeking out specialized medical care. This knowledge helps me alleviate the nervousness (and guilt) I have for being in front of a dentist.

      I guess Dr Doom takes this one.

      Doctor Doom, for sure, although I’d rather go to the dentist than to the optometrist and have them shoot the air in my eyes!
