Could ironman hack a mother box?

Curious

if tony has hacked computers of alien origin, then theoretically he should be able to do so, though mother box's sentience might prove a challenge

With time, yes, but it won't be easy.

Should he be able too? Hell no.

Could he? He's a popular human character so ya writers would probably let him.

Nope.

If the plot demands it.

@dernman: I'd agree with you.

How? Both are from different companies lol.

If you're going to ask a question like the OP asked it demands the idea they are somehow make contact with each other.

If you need a more literal answer then crossover.

I was just joking, anyways I don't see DC allowing Iron Man to hack what is considered one of the most complex device of their universe.

Probably not he didn't even know about the "Sladon" metal repairer Rocket Racoon gave him to repair his armor.

I thought the integration of a Mother Box into Iron Man's arsenal in JLA/Avengers was an interesting move. That was a nice way of showing two versions of technology working in tandem.

@rustyroy: I don't see why they wouldn't. It's a lesser problem than having Superman pick up Thor's hammer for a time. It's not like New God tech is so far beyond DC human characters though it should be. Pandora's box and Cyborg are reversed engineered from Motherboxes. IIRC it's been hacked in the past. I could be wrong.

Because picking up Hammer doesn't diminish the other company, not to mention it was later shown on panel that Superman could not lift the hammer, Stark hacking Motherbox is like Aquaman breaking Adamantium, which won't be allowed by the rival company. Things even changed between the two companies from that time, they won't do that kind of crossovers again anytime soon.

Uh, no. A mother box gets it's power from the Source.

thats what i was thinking. if ironman could hack the source he would spank the entire dcu

I believe mother boxes are sentient, so i doubt it.
