Marvel Mutant: My Ultimate Evolution into Doctor Manhattan

[Dark-leaning fiction + exposing the kill threshold + power fantasy + apocalyptic revelations + newly rated, with ratings set to rise]

Russell has been transported into the Marvel Universe as a Level One mutant slated for disposal after a failed experiment. Fortunately, his system awakens just in time.

Superhuman healing is only Level One?

No problem. Hard work pays off. Watch him push it to Level Three in a single night.

His telekinesis can only manipulate matter on a macroscopic scale?

No problem. System, add more points. He intends to become Doctor Manhattan-and walk on the surface of the sun.

Matter, molecules, atoms, subatomic particles... the doors to the microscopic world open before him.

Professor X: "I was wrong. He's the hope and future of mutantkind."

Magneto: "Compared to Russell, I feel like I'm not nearly crazy enough."

Nick Fury: "What? Russell's coming for me?!"
