Blowing the lid off this bogus docorate cover-up. Marvel and DC, please respond.
In the comic book world, much like in the real one, having "Doctor" in front of your name garners respect. But is it earned? Somewhere out there, a super-villain diploma mill is making a killing.
Let's look at the worst offenders.
"Doctor" Doom - Nemesis: Fantastic Four
Victor von Doom was expelled from University after causing a massive explosion. He doesn't even have his Bachelor degree. While Doom may claim to have received his Ph.D. from the Latverian university, it is null and void since you can't just give yourself doctorates.

"Doctor" Spectro - Nemesis: Justice League
Spectro was a fake supervillain created to cover up the exploits of the Captain Atom project. Of course, things went off script when Tom Emery decided to REALLY be a bad guy. Fake or real, Emery doesn't have a doctorate.

"Doctor" Sun - Nemesis: Fantastic Four
Sun is an alien robot with an organic brain. Any Ph.D. acquired on on other worlds is not viable for peer review on Earth due to LACK OF PEERS.
