Doctor Minerva is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.

Doctor Minerva is a Kree geneticist. She was an enemy of the rogue Kree agent Captain Mar-Vell, and later became the partner of Captain Atlas.

Doctor Minerva first appeared in Captain Marvel #50 and was created by Scott Edelman and Al Milgrom.

Minn-Erva was born in Edelix, on the planet Kree-Lar. She became a geneticist and an agent of the Kree Empire. She was stationed on the Kree science cruiser, Ananim. She orbited the Earth in the starship, observing Mar-Vell. She then abducted Rick Jones, and lured Mar-Vell aboard the craft. She revealed to Mar-Vell her theory that the two of them would produce superior offspring capable of advancing the evolutionary potential of the Kree species. She was ordered by the science council head Phae-Dor to abandon her mission, but refused and was neurologically overpowered. She was rescued from the wrecked science cruiser by Mar-Vell. She later rendezvoused with the Kree scientist Mac-Ronn and docile Ronan the Accuser on a farm in Sullivan County, Texas. Later, she observed Ronan revive and escape custody.

Doctor Minerva later became partner to Kree Captain Atlas, serving aboard the Kree light cruiser Ramatam. She incognito commissioned A.I.M. to steal Quasar's quantum-bands. She abducted Quasar and revealed to him how she was transformed by the Psyche-Magnetron. She rendezvoused with Captain Atlas, and tried to remove Quasar's quantum-bands, but was instead banished from Earth.

Doctor Minerva was a member of the Kree Starforce during the Kree/Shi'ar war.
