| Capt. Monica Kwok, M.D.
|
First Appearance: Forte
2000 #2
Monica's mother, Dr. Monice Kwok, was a physician for the SISRS prison system before joining UNCLE, and became a renowned expert on metahuman physiology. Monice served many years in UNCLE, including a long stint with the Seattle branch, where she worked with...and treated...the original Forte for several years. When she was forced into retirement due to age, she went to work for Johnny Quest at Questar Labs. Monica followed her mother into medicine, serving in a number of the nation's trauma centers before practicing medicine abroad for relief organizations. When her retirement began approaching, Monice began pressuring Monica to take up the mantle, and Monica finally caved in and became an UNCLE physician, learning from her mother's metahuman knowledge. She ended up in the Seattle office where her mother had served, and when a new Forte team arose, she became a familiar face to them at the "boneyard" (the UNCLE Seattle medical bay) as she both treated their wounds and provided valuable insights for their investigations. She's an exceptional physician and a brave and compassionate soul, as well as a talented singer (which is evidenced during UNCLE outings for karaoke). |
