DCnU: Predict the Smartest Characters in the DCU

Surprisingly, I liked Mr. Terrific. He is said to be the 3rd smartest man on the planet. Predict who #1 and 2 are. Wallace already said it's either Luthor or Hardware in this youtube interview.

I'm predicting Morrison will make Luthor out to be a beast in his run. Wallace will reveal who the other 2 are later on.

Also, who would be your top 10 super geniuses in the DCnU?

1. Luthor
2. ?? Maybe Ray Palmer
3. Mr. Terrific
4. Will Magnus
5. T.O Morrow
6. Batman
7. IQ Quimbly
8. The Chief
9. Dr. Sivana
10. Dr. Stein/Ultrahumanite

Magnus is the smartest man alive.

After that intelligence becomes too difficult to measure to make an accurate list.

I love Will Magnus! Creating artificial souls is pretty bad ass.

Don't sleep on the Chief, he's created the Candlemaker, a being that broke into the 4th Wall and into ours. Gave himself Krypronian powers in last Doom Patrol series, and brought Rita back from the dead.

The Chief doesn't smoke a pipe half as awesomely as Magnus, so he's less intelligent by default.

Edit: "Bruce is clearly in the top 10, maybe in the top 5."

He can eat a dick.
