My own basic outline is thisTo convert INT to I.Q., multiply INT by 10. So a 10 INT is a 100 I.Q. This seems pretty reasonable and gives us a base for comparing super heroes to real world people. Note that the difference between each two points of INT is equal to a two standard deviations in I.Q.  or two orders of magnitude. INT 18: PHD's who are the head of their fields. In real life these people can change the world, or the way it is viewed. INT 20: A 200 IQ is a 1 in a billion phenomenon. This is the first level of 'super genius'. suitable for characters who have one or two super science inventions under their belt. Peter Parker, Mr. Freeze, Scarecrow, Bruce Banner.  INT 22: Never seen in the real world. Norman Osborn, Magneto, Beast, INT 24: Bat Man, Iron Man. INT 25: Heroes who are supposed to be smarter then even the geniuses of their world. Hank Prym. INT 30: Dr. Doom. INT 40: Mr. Fantastic. I choose 40 for Reed mainly because it is the highest INT a level 10 character could get (Peak Average Hero). Higher levels then this would be really hard to justify and roleplay. INT > 40: Galactus, Ultron.</blockquote>
