Manic Monday--Mar-Vell Invents The Internet!!

Because NASA scientists are stupid, stupid, stupid, they have accidentally created and unleashed Solam, a "photo-kinetic" being who is going to end up destroying the Earth.

Fortunately, the Kree have dealt with this before, and Mar-Vell has a plan!

Well? Get to it, NASA bigwigs!

Direct data intercommunication! Zoinks!! (But, really, is a video hook=up what you need here?)

And...they promptly used it to send cat pictures to each other and write screeds criticizing comic companies for the way they alphabetized.

Oh, and it worked. The proto-internet made enough bitcoin to stop Solam, or something like that.

Just how smart is Mar-Vell?

Smarter than your average NASA advanced theoretical mathematician.
