15 Best Scientists In The MCU

If you think of the Guardians of the Galaxy as the Space Avengers, Rocket Raccoon would fill the role of Tony Stark. The small woodland animal has a bit of a Frankenstein complex and wise mouth, but is one of the most talented engineers and technicians in the MCU.

Rocket was genetically enhanced, resulting in intelligence that doesn't just far exceed that of raccoons, but most humans as well. Rocket has shown to be a highly competent pilot and expert criminal.

Where Rocket truly excels is mechanics and weapons design, which have enabled him to join the fight against some of the universe's most powerful beings. To date Rocket has created the Hadron Enforcer ( which he claims is capable of destroying a moon), gadgets that temporarily warded off Yondu's Ravagers and a bomb capable of killing Ego using nothing but a detonator and some anulax batteries.

Rockets other great feats of brain power include organizing a prison escape (also stating he had broken out of 22 previous prisons) and helping Thor revive a dead star. Rocket has shown as much resourcefulness as any character in the MCU, which seems fitting for a raccoon.
