+First appearance: X-Men: The 198 Vol 1 1
+Created by: David Hine; Jim Muniz
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: A group of mutants retaining their powers after the results of M-Day and gathered in the Xavier Institute.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Xavier Institute, Salem Center, Westchester County, New York
+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+History:
+===Formation===; After altering reality so Mutants were the dominant race on Earth, the Scarlet Witch then changed reality once again, this time attempting to rid the world of the mutant gene. Nearly 90% of the world's mutants lost their powers overnight.; With few mutants left after M-Day, Cyclops opened the Xavier Institute to any mutant who needed refuge in that most difficult time. Sentinel Squad O*N*E was formally activated by the President and dispatched to the Xavier Institute to monitor the remaining mutants. They got into a brief quarrel with the X-Men but stopped after Emma Frost revealed the Sentinel units were piloted. The two groups then joined forces when the mutant-hating fanatical group known as the Sapien League attacked the Mansion. The Squad remained stationed outside of the Xavier Institute to monitor the status of the mutants living there.; The first few mutants to arrive were Mammomax, Erg, Peepers, and Outlaw. Shortly, the group grew to include Toad, Lorelei Travis, Johnny Dee, Sack, Fever Pitch, Jazz, Karma, Skids, Arclight, Caliban and Leech, Collective Man, Diamond Lil, Beautiful Dreamer, and Empath, among many others.; They were forced to live in tents as most of the mansion had been destroyed in the battles between the Sentinels and the Sapien League. Many, if not all residents, did not like the Sentinels guarding over them and the lack of direction. They soon named themselves the '198', in reference to the supposed total amount of remaining mutants on the planet according to Cerebra, and raised a flag with that number on it.; ===Mr. M===; When the powerful mutant Mr. M arrived to the Institute, he took out a Sentinel because it had come close to stepping on a rare caterpillar. Later, Mr. M displayed his amazing powers by regrowing out Lorelei's hair. The X-Men and the O*N*E* Squad were both uncomfortable with him and were unsure how to approach the matter. When Erg attempted to leave the grounds, a battle ensued, only to be ended by Mr. M.; Some feared that they would have to stay there a long time when Valerie Cooper revealed plans to build more permanent facilities. When some demanded to leave, Cooper wouldn't allow it, but instead allowed them to go around a nearby town on the condition that they would wear electronic tags for tracking purposes. When Mammomax was ridiculed by a human he tried to attack, but his tag shocked him. The 198 were upset that the tags were capable of harming them.; Meanwhile, Jazz was trying to buy some drugs when Johnny Dee used his mutant power to strangled his small Jazz doll, choking the real Jazz to death. When the 198 learned of Jazz's death, they blamed the tags and started a riot. The situation quickly grew out of control and Mr. M and Lorelei decided to leave and invited all 198 members to join them. The Sentinels could only watch as they left.; When the Sentinels and the X-Men followed them to a nearby island, Mr. M proved himself more than a threat to both of them. When Scalphunter threatened Beast, Lorelei tried to stop him, only for him to hit her. That was when Mr. M lost it. Meanwhile, General Lazer agreed to allow Johnny Dee to deal with the threat. Johnny Dee used his Leech doll to cancel Mr. M's power. When Mr. M was down, Dee used his Magma doll to incinerate Mr. M. Later, when Lorelei and Leech watched over Mr. M's coffin, he seemed to evolve, giving the 198 hope.; ===Apocalypse===; Apocalypse soon came and offered the 198 salvation, to their curiosity. When Famine attacked, making all of the hungry, Apocalypse claimed his elixir could heal them. Apocalypse took down the Sentinels as they drank his elixir. But when the elixir was destroyed during the battle, Apocalypse left. The 198 continued to live at the institute for a while longer witnessing the attacks of William Stryker and the Children of the Vault.; ===Civil War===; Soon another riot broke out, this time led by Caliban and Erg. It was discovered to be distraction for Domino and Shatterstar to free the 198. Roughly half escaped with Domino on an aircraft and went to an abandoned SHIELD base. Iron Man placed Bishop in charge of finding the 198.; The X-Men concluded that if the 198 were found, there would be fatalities. The X-Men discovered where the base was, but Domino wouldn't let them in. Meanwhile, General Lazer gave Johnny Dee a sample of Cyclops' DNA, and with it they discovered where the X-Men and the 198 were located. General Lazer forced Johnny Dee to make Cyclops attack Bishop to prove that mutants were dangerous. When the 198 tried to help, he forced some 198 members to attack. Johnny Dee reached his limit, however, as he could only control one doll at a time.; When Val Cooper learned of Lazer's plan, she arrested him. However, she was too late, and he set off some weapons that would go off soon in the SHIELD base. When she interrogated him, he realized too late that Johnny had made a doll of him, and Johnny killed him. With the help of Iron Man and Ms. Marvel, the X-Men managed to get in and rescue the 198 and the weapons exploded. Leech stopped Cyclops' power from going ballistic, Johnny Dee was arrested, and the 198 were given total amnesty, to come and go wherever they choose.; ===Aftermath===; Most of the 198 relocated to San Francisco with the X-Men, then later to Utopia after San Francisco riots.

+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-1610
+Base of operations: Chicago, Illinois
+History:
+===Origin===; Emma Frost a former student and lover of Mutant Rights Activist Professor Charles Xavier, broke up with him after disagreeing over Homo superior’s role in society.; Professor Xavier felt that Mutants could avoid racial conflict with humanity by policing themselves, while Emma Frost felt that Mutants must become role models and educators to both the Human and Mutant society.; Due to this, Emma Frost moved to Chicago, becoming an educator and began running Mutant education seminars for the public.; ===Formation===; Following the public debut of Xavier’s X-Men, Emma approached the U.S. Government with a proposal to create a group of popular, attractive mutant spokespeople from various backgrounds and ethnicities to win over public opinion and launch her Mutant education campaign.; Despite a number of her candidates were rejected, the President approved her plan.; Enabling Emma to recruite;; Havok: Elder brother to the X-Men Cyclops.; Dazzler: Lead singer of the punk band Dazzler.; Beast: A disenchanted Xavier dropout.; At the President's behest, Emma also added;; Karma: A S.H.I.E.L.D. Black Ops agent.; ===Death of a Beast?===; At the Academy’s public press launch on the Capital Steps, rogue government elements that feared Mutants influencing the President unleashed the Mutant hunting robots known as the Sentinels.; During the chaos ushered by the Sentinels attack, the Mutant known as Beast was seemingly killed whilst protecting members of the public.; The Sentinels were destroyed by the intervention of Professor Xavier and his students the X-Men, whilst the Mutant Karma was revealed to have been placed in the group by S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nicholas Fury, so she could uncover the anti-Mutant conspiracy within the President’s inner circle.; In the aftermath of this tragedy, Emma and her remaining charges (Havok and Dazzler) moved into Xavier’s estate to re-evaluate their purpose and mission.; ===The Academy of Tomorrow===; After a brief stay, Emma and Havok departed for Chicago (Dazzler was left at the estate, most likely of her own choice), as Emma still believed that Xavier and the X-Men were still taking the wrong path to a peaceful Human and Mutant society; Once in Chicago Emma established the Academy of Tomorrow. The Academy accepted all outstanding individuals, Mutant or otherwise.; Among Emma's collection of students were;; Mutant Energy Converser: Havok.; Human Computer Genius: Cypher.; Mutant Speedster: Northstar.; Mutant Magnetic: Polaris.; Mutant Living Projectile: Cannonball.; Mutant Solar Battery: Sunspot.; ===Magnetic North===; During a rescue mission with the Chicago Fire Department, the Mutant Magnetic Polaris, seemingly lost control of her Magnetic Powers to which caused the death of nine people (five Fireman and four civilians).; To prevent the imprisonment of her other students, Emma handed Polaris over to Government Agency S.H.I.E.L.D..; S.H.I.E.L.D. incarcerated Polaris in the superhuman holding facility the Triskelion, in the same cell as the Mutant-Supremacist Magnetic Terrorist Magneto.; It was revealed that the loss of control Polaris had over her Magnetic Powers, was in fact due to a magnetic-device planted by the Brotherhood of Mutant Supremacy’s genius-inventor Forge and the shapeshifting Mutant Mystique. This was done as both the Mutant-Supremacists knew that due to the similar nature of the magnetic powers of both Polaris and Magneto, they would be placed in the same cell as each other.; The reason behind Polaris' loss of control over her Magnetic Powers, was being investigated by the Academy's Human computer-genius Cypher. During this Polaris' team-mates (Havok, Northstar, Cannonball, and Sunspot) prepared to break her out of the superhuman holding facility the Triskelion.; Once the X-Men learned of Havok's rescue plan, they moved to intercept them, in the hopes of stopping them from becoming fugitives. Unfortunately both groups ended up fighting one another and the American government superhero-team The Ultimates. This conflict, provided the perfect distraction for the Brotherhood to release Magneto.; In the aftermath of this conflict and incursion, Polaris was released from the Triskelion with the evidence provided by the Human Cypher. Furthermore Director Fury's attempt to imprison Havok, due to him leading the attempted attack, was halted by the X-Men Wolverine's blackmailing of Director Fury, thus causing him to drop the charges.; ===Spy===; The apparently expelled Xavier student, Angel joined the Academy, to act as an undercover operative for Professor Xavier, whom believed that Emma could not be trusted to protect her students.; ===Metal & Speed===; The openly gay Mutant Northstar, asked the closeted metallic Mutant Colossus to the Academy's Homecoming Dance, to which Colossus accepted. This enabled Colossus to work up the courage to admit his sexuality to his team-mates.; ===Ultimatum===; During Ultimatum Event, the Academy was destroyed in the world-wide terrorist attack by Multiple Man, to which lead to the death of many of the Academy's faculty and students.

+History:
+The domain of Arcadia is defended by the all-female team, A-Force, which is led by Arcadia's Baroness, She-Hulk. One day, a megalodon appeared off the coast of Arcadia, and the A-Force took it down. After the creature had been subdued, Ms. America lifted it and threw it away into the zombie-infested Deadlands. This action unfortunately partially damaged the Shield. This offense caused Ms. America to be arrested by the Thors and exiled to the Shield to guard it. The Sub-Mariners were later summoned by the A-Force to find the origin of this creature. That same day, a mysterious girl crashed into Arcadia's Bishop Lighthouse and was found by Sister Grimm.; While investigation the origin of the megalodon, the Sub-Mariners discovered a magic portal that quickly vanished. Grimm took the strange girl home where Loki advised Grimm to take the girl to A-Force to determine her true nature. While A-Force examined the girl, a portal suddenly opened, which released a Sentinel from the Sentinel Territories. After the Sentinel was destroyed by A-Force and the strange girl, Medusa accused the girl of causing the portals to be opened, but She-Hulk didn't think so. Then the strange girl sent She-Hulk through the portal and into the Sentinel Territories.; She-Hulk was confronted by three members of the Thors for going into another domain without permission, but she stunned them and escaped through the portal to return to Arcadia. She-Hulk realized that the portal was created using magic from Arcadia, meaning that there was a traitor among with A-Force. She informed her teammates of this revelation. However, the three Thors that attacked She-Hulk in the Sentinel Territories come through the portal. Medusa managed to throw the Thors back through the portal before it closed, but she died in the process. The Thors later entered Arcadia in search of She-Hulk, but She-Hulk was hidden within the strange girl, who was the living embodiment of a universe.; A-Force appeared to have disbanded, and the Thors felt that it was best to appoint Loki as the next Baroness of Arcadia. However, A-Force now realized that it was Loki who was opening all those portals in order to discredit She-Hulk as Arcadia's Baroness and move in to take her place. A-Force confront Loki, subdue the villain, and restore She-Hulk's reputation. Refusing to be defeated, Loki used her power to destroy a portion of the Shield that bordered the Deadlands, causing an army of zombies to invade Arcadia.; She-Hulk quickly mobilized A-Force to fight off the zombies. Many heroes joined A-Force including some male heroes that resided on Arcadia. A-Force was also helped out by the Sub-Mariners; Thor (Sif), Thor (Gamora), and Thor (Brunnhilde) of the Thors; and Arcadia's X-Men. Even with combined number of heroes fighting the zombies, the undead overwhelmed them; however, to save her new friends and the domain, Singularity stepped in, absorbing all of the zombies into herself, before flying up into the sky, and exploding in a flash of light while saying goodbye.

+History:
+She-Hulk; When the entity Singularity emerged in Earth-616 after seemingly having perished in the domain of Arcadia, the space organization known as Alpha Flight encountered a similar entity near the Alpha Flight Low-Orbit Space Station. Singularity found Captain Marvel, mistaking her for the one from Arcadia, aboard the Space Station. The mysterious entity later returned, and Singularity stole a Life Support Pod to flee from Antimatter.; Reaching out for anything familiar as she descended to Earth, Singularity was taken towards New York City, clipping New Attilan before crash landing in Manhattan, where she found Jennifer Walters. The pair were soon attacked by Antimatter, who had pursued Singularity from orbit, and engaged it in battle, however they were vastly outclassed. Queen Medusa then arrived with a large force of Inhumans, and Singularity recognized her voice, mistaking her for the Medusa of Arcadia; however, Medusa placed handcuffs on Singularity, planning to turn her over to Antimatter.; After Antimatter killed an Inhuman, Medusa was convinced that She-Hulk was right, they could not simply turn over Singularity, and so the trio teamed up and engaged Antimatter in combat, but quickly found themselves still outmatched. Medusa utilized a Inhuman piece of prototype technology to teleport Antimatter near the Moon. The three of them were teleported by Singularity to Japan, accidentally crashing the wedding of Nico Minoru's cousin. They quickly explained the situation to Nico as Antimatter arrived once more, only to be temporarily banished by the magic of the Staff of One.; The rest of the women demanded that Singularity explain herself and her knowledge about Antimatter. As Singularity told them about her time in Battleworld, Captain Marvel called them to discuss a plan devised by Dr. Tempest Bell to use Singularity as bait to lure the entity into being bombarded with light particles in order to find the weakness of Antimatter. The women teleported to Miami to seek the aid of Dazzler; however, Alison punched Singularity on the jaw angrily. At the same time, Antimatter arrived yet again.; As Dazzler unleashed a burst of light, She-Hulk and Medusa attempted to restrain Antimatter while Captain Marvel powered up a containment device, but the equipment failed when Antimatter overloaded the system and confronted them once more. Nico then used a spell to remove Antimatter's ability to track Singularity, and the entity enveloped the women within herself and teleported back to the A.F.S.S..; One of Alpha Flight's members, Lt. Wendy Kawasaki, then explained the data they had gathered from the experiment in Miami and Dr. Bell indicated that she could create a machine which would dismantle Antimatter; however, there was quantum entanglement between him and Singularity, which meant his destruction would destroy Singularity as well.; She-Hulk then decided to attempt to talk with Antimatter, without Singularity present, to see if they could reason with the entity, but the discussion did not go well, and Antimatter attacked Dazzler, striking a fatal blow. Back on the A.F.S.S., Singularity blamed herself for being talked into staying behind and asked Nico if she could resurrect Dazzler, but was told that was impossible. Saddened by the death of Dazzler, Singularity teleported to the Blue Area of the Moon alone, in order to confront Antimatter.; She-Hulk, Minoru and Captain Marvel went to reinforce Singularity, while Medusa placed the bomb inside Antimatter. When the bomb exploded, a revived Dazzler teleported in and whisked Singularity away just in time. With Antimatter destroyed, the team was celebrating at a diner in Virginia when Singularity sensed a disturbance as remnants of Antimatter tore open portals to other realities.; The team remained together for some time, but eventually disbanded with Jennifer dropping superhero activities and Medusa going to space.

However, this is a continuity error because, as in the real world, that is the nickname of the 101st Airborne Division. The 82nd are actually known as the All American Division whose motto is "Death from Above."
+History:
+The 82nd Airborne Division is an airborne infantry division of the U.S. Army, specializing in parachute assault operations into denied areas with a U.S. Department of Defense requirement. They were first formed in 1912 and are based at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.; The 82nd Airborne Division is part of the XVIII Airborne Corps and is the U.S. Army's most strategically mobile division.; When Manhattan was invaded by Fire Demons from Muspelheim, troops under the command of Major Sauleda arrived via helicopter to assist the Avengers. After the demon invasion had been repelled and the bodies of the demons had disappeared, the troops remained in the city to looking for wounded to treat.; Some months later, members of the 82nd Airborne under the command of Lieutenant Glazier were aboard a USAF military transport aircraft carrying them from the west coast to Guam. When heavy weather forced the plane to climb, it was hit by something big (a pterosaur) and lost power. Spotting an island below, they parachuted down to it. Although the flight crew didn't make it off the plane in time, all of the troops made it down okay except for one guy who died of a broken neck when he got hung up in the trees. While trying to recover the body, the soldiers discovered that the island was inhabited by dinosaurs who proved to be a continuous danger to them. Some hours later, after most of the men had set up camp at one end of the island, a scouting party encountered five civilians who claimed to be the Fantastic Four and that they had just arrived but had mysteriously lost their powers. Lieutenant Glazier doubted their claims but became slightly more trusting when Ben Grimm used a miniature rocket launcher to kill a spinosaurus that had just killed one of the soldiers. Despite this, the soldiers didn't fully accept that the FF were who they claimed to be until the next day, when Grimm wore his Thing Exoskeleton to drive off an attacking Deinonychus pack. Some hours later, the combined group discovered that part of the island had disappeared, pulled back millions of years into the past from which it had come, apparently taking the men who had been camped there with it.; With time running out before the rest of the island disappeared, the soldiers and the FF worked together to build a raft in a cove on the further side of the island. They succeeded in launching the raft in time but then found themselves trapped by an invisible barrier that was the true perimeter of the time disruption surrounding the island. As their raft was about to be smashed by an attacking Kronosaurus, the barrier opened up before them, allowing them to pass through into their own time. However, as they watched the last of the island disappear, the raft, being made from logs and creepers from the island, also disappeared, leaving them floating in the Pacific Ocean. Just as they were contemplating having to make a very long swim home, the members of the FF regained their powers. While the Invisible Woman created a raft out of her invisible force field that would keep them out of the water and Mister Fantastic pulled Glazier and another man to the raft, the Human Torch flew off to make contact with a ship or an aircraft and bring help. In all, only eight of the men from the plane escaped from Dinosaur Island.

They were activated when time began to unravel as a consequence of simultaneously Korvac trying to rewrite reality and the Incursions destroying timelines. The A-Sentience detected that Geena Drake was a temporal anomaly and assumed she was involved in the time issues and began to hunt her down using the Badoon as pawns in her capture. This brought them into conflict with the Guardians of the Galaxy which sought to determine what A-Sentience was after and what was causing the time distortions. Eventually a lone A-Sentience was brought to 2015 A.D. and began to hunt the source of the temporal anomaly there, ultimatly finding Korvac but quickly falling under his control. A-Sentience was seemingly destroyed as the final Incursion began.

+Weapons: Many Acolytes have used energy rifles and other guns in the past.
+Transportation: Various stolen space shuttles and other vehicles.
+History:
+The Acolytes started as a small group of mutants loyal to Magneto and his teachings.; ===First Acolytes===; Originally led by Fabian Cortez, they stole a space shuttle to join Magneto on his orbital base Asteroid M. The Acolytes pledged to follow Magneto's principles, particularly the mutant right of superiority over normal humans. Some members of the Acolytes even worshipped Magneto with a religious fervor and regarded him as the “mutant messiah.” Upon learning of their intentions, Magneto allowed them to stay and become his Acolytes.; Magneto was betrayed by Fabian Cortez. Cortez was actually a member of the Upstarts, a group of mutants organized by the Gamesmaster who were awarded points for killing other mutants. As Asteroid M plummeted towards Earth, the Acolyte Chrome used his powers to shield Magneto from harm. Thanks to Chrome's intervention, Magneto survived the crash, however all of the remaining Acolytes died.; ===Second Acolytes===; Fabian Cortez's seeming elimination of Magneto established him as ranking competitor among the Upstarts. Believing Magneto to be dead, Cortez gathered a second group of Acolytes to unwittingly aid him in the competition by playing Magneto off as a martyr. Among his new recruits were Cargill, Unuscione, and the brothers Eric, Harlan, and Sven Kleinstock.; This new team of Acolytes attacked a school wanting to secure an unidentified mutant boy. When they discovered the boy had Down Syndrome, they judged him as worthless. After they killed the X-Men's ally Sharon Friedlander, they X-Men intervened. Eric Kleinstock was killed by Tom Corsi. The Acolytes then grew to Amelia Voght, Milan, Scanner, Senyaka, Spoor, Katu, Mellencamp, and Javitz.; The Acolytes attacked Camp Hayden, a top-secret facility for producing Sentinel robots, and battled X-Factor. Mellencamp was killed by Multiple Man.; The Acolytes split into factions on several occasions. When Exodus revealed himself and the truth behind Cortez, some refused to believe him and continued to follow Cortez, while most others followed Exodus. Upon Magneto's return however, Exodus 'cured' Rusty Collins and Skids from Stryfe and they chose to follow him.; When all Acolytes aligned with Magneto went to Illyana Rasputin's funeral, Colossus grew outraged at Xavier, and joined them. Not much later, the X-Men attacked Avalon and when Magneto ripped all of the Adamantium out of Wolverine's skin, Xavier left Magneto in a vegetative state. Later, Kitty Pride contacted Colossus to join the Acolytes. The two met in Muir Island, as a plan of the X-Men to make Colossus change his mind. Colossus finally decided to stay with the Acolytes and take care of Magneto.; The Acolytes soon realized that Neopyhte betrayed them and held a 'trial' for him. Colossus was his 'lawyer', and Voght was his 'prosecutor'. Exodus wished to kill the boy for his crime, but Colossus was very convincing and Exodus just banished him from Avalon instead.; After the reality warp known as the Age of Apocalypse ended, a villain escaped through to Earth-616 named Holocaust. Exodus saw him in space and wished to pull him in. Milan was scared and when he learned of him being a mutant, Exodus was even more pleased. Meanwhile, Skids and Rusty had some doubts about joining, but they were too late. Milan was absorbed by Holocaust and soon Rusty was too. Holocaust soon started tearing the place apart, thinking he was still in his own reality. Voght called the X-Men for help, and help they did. Jean Grey managed to escape with Skids, while Cyclops escaped with the Kleinstock brothers, Scanner, Unuscione, and Frenzy; all whom agreed to turn themselves in exchange for his help. Exodus and Holocaust fought on, even as Avalon finally was destroyed. Holocaust also absorbed Javitz during the fight. Colossus escaped with Magneto's body, but when he awoke later from Callisto, Magneto's body was gone.; ===Third Acolytes===; Soon Joseph -- a clone of Magneto created by Astra who was trying to get back at Magneto -- emerged. Several Acolytes attempted to follow Joseph, who they believed to be an amnesiac Magneto.; ===Fourth Acolytes===; Many of the Acolytes were on the island of Genosha during the massive Wild Sentinels attack sent by Cassandra Nova. Barnacle, Katu, Mellencamp, Rem-Ram, Spoor, and Static were all killed.; ===Fifth Acolytes===; Exodus then reformed the Acolytes at the request of an unnamed backer after M-Day, including new members Random and Tempo. The Acolytes played a large role in the search for the first mutant child born since M-Day. Afterwards, Karima was added to the ranks and Amelia Voght returned as well. Exodus, convinced by Professor X, disbanded the Acolytes again.; ===Necrosha===; When Selene reanimated many dead mutants many Acolytes were brought back including Barnacle, Fabian Cortez, Delgado, Firefist, Katu, Mellencamp, Rem-Ram, Spoor, and Static.; ===Reunion on Krakoa===; Exodus later reunited several of the surviving Acolytes like Fabian Cortez, Amelia Voght, Unuscione, and some unidentified members. When the X-Men relocated to Krakoa, the Acolytes were invited to join them alongside the rest of Earth's mutants.

+Trivia: This team is based on the Avengers from Earth-9904.; During its first run, the "Agents of Atlas" were actually working AGAINST actual agents of the Atlas organization, until they joined it.
+History:
+One of the most inscrutable, pervasive, and enduring secret societies on Earth, the Atlas Foundation traditionally pursued world domination but currently uses its covert power and influence for humanity's greater good.; Steeped in advanced science and ancient sorcery, the society regards itself as a perpetuation of the ancient Mongol Empire, with each leader a descendant of and rightful successor to Genghis Khan. As he grows old, each Khan seeks a successor. For most of the 19th Century, the Atlas Foundation society was led by Master Plan. Plan had long since selected his potential successor, Jimmy Woo, despite the attempts of Jimmy's parents to spare him this legacy and their flight to America. Jimmy Woo became one of the top West Coast FBI agents, but Plan Chu made himself into Woo's greatest enemy, the Yellow Claw, so as to help Jimmy advance his career and hone his skills. Indeed, nearly all of Jimmy's adventurers and allies were in some way all part of the Atlas Foundation's machinations.; One such adventure was prompted by the Yellow Claw's kidnapping of President Eisenhower in 1958. Authorized to assemble a special rescue team Department Zero, Woo reviewed his files on active super-beings and instinctively selected a roster that came to him in a dream: Gorilla Man, Venus, Marvel Boy, and aquatic heroine Namora. Namora declined to join the mission but found a replacement by helping Woo salvage the lost Human Robot. Meshing smoothly as a team, Woo's "Department Zero" rescued Eisenhower and accomplished various other missions, repeatedly clashing with Atlas Foundation agents and pawns such as the mutated canine cosmonaut Laika; however, U.S. authorities ultimately decided the world was not ready for such bizarre heroes and disbanded the group, declaring their missions classified.; In recent years, now an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., Jimmy longed for the action in his youth. On his last mission for S.H.I.E.L.D., Woo went rogue, leading a team of agents into the San Francisco branch of The Atlas Foundation. Inside the facility, they find a secret room and the team is all killed except for Woo. He is found by S.H.I.E.L.D. and taken back to a S.H.I.E.L.D. facility with very little brain function and on life support. Dugan brought in Gorilla Man for questioning as the only clues they had linked this mission to the original G-Men and Hale was the only member they could contact. With no knowledge of what Woo had done, Hale requested to say a final goodbye, but Hale instead contacted M-11 and Marvel Boy who rescued him. Marvel Boy was able to restore Woo by reconstructing him as he last remembered Woo, which was from there time together in the 1950's. This restored his youth, at the expense of Woo's memories of the intervening 50 years.; The quartet traveled to Woo's house for clues and found Derek Khanata already there. After taking Jimmy Woo's Car and Marvel Boy taking an imprint of the house, the G-Men attempted to leave without Khanata but Khanata reveals he has discovered the whereabouts of Venus. Travelling with the group to Africa, the G-Men met Khanata's cousin, who found Venus at the site of Gorilla Man's transformation, having turned the war torn area peaceful. But soon after their arrival Yellow Claw attacked the group.; After a small scuffle Yellow Claw was revealed to have been a robot and Jimmy was rescued by his team-mates. Leaving Africa with Venus, the team return to where Jimmy was initially injured in hopes of finding a temple, however they find nothing. Leaving M-11 behind, Woo and team travel to an old coffee shop Woo used to visit, Gorilla Man reveals M-11 visited him before SHIELD did to inform Hale that he needed to rescue Woo and Marvel Boy revealed his origins and how there was a second version of himself. As the story concludes, the team sees M-11 trying to travel to Antarctica since he has concluded that Namora isn't dead and needs to be rescued. Travelling there they found what appeared to be the remains of Namora.; Namora was revealed to be alive by Marvel Boy and while M-11 freed Namora, the rest of the team were attacked by giant crabs and were rescued by a newly revived Namora. Feeling that he has taken his team away from their lives, Jimmy tries to send the rest of the team home but they all refused and plan to continue helping him investigating. Using a list compiled by Woo before he lost his memories, they began to investigate all possible operations of the Atlas Foundation, with every single site they visit being one. After taking down some pirates, the team was attacked again by Yellow Claw and his terracotta army, in the fight Yellow Claw escaped and not even Grayson could detect his presence. After the attack Jimmy confided in Khanata that he suspected on his team to be a traitor.; During the search, Namora revealed the secret of Venus' true nature, having known of the legend of the Siren. Venus fell into depression and filled all of her companions with despair. This caused Marvel Boy to reveal the fact that Jimmy suspected M-11 of being the traitor in the midst. While the rest of the team began to fight each other, Woo calmed her and was able to help her rediscover her confidence. Venus has finally reconnected with her past life and regained all of the abilities she possessed as a naiad. Venus proceeded to sing, soothing the rest of the team and they returned to their mission to take down the Atlas group. However, M-11 still wanted revenge against Marvel Boy for attacking him, and was only stopped when Jimmy stood in his way, and asked M-11 to sever his connection to Yellow Claw. M-11 then revealed the missing information on how to find the hidden temple.; Woo and his team go back to the San Francisco branch of Atlas and re-enter the hidden room. This time, they survive and confront Yellow Claw and Mr. Lao. It turns out that Yellow Claw was waiting for Woo to come, to claim the mantle of Genghis Khan. With the title of Great Khan, Woo also assumed control over the holdings of The Atlas Foundation. Jimmy then asked Khanata to lie to S.H.I.E.L.D. and tell them that they actually perished in the temple so they can continue in secret.; The transition away from being a criminal organization was not easy however as one of the the early missions after becoming the Atlas Foundation involved a rogue faction of the organization who did not want to stop their criminal activities. Using a theatre production they would use the audiences life force, combined with totemic vessel to create an army of Monsters. The group teamed up with Spider-Man to stop them, after him and the group were attacked. Initially unsure which side the group was on Spider-Man fought with Gorilla Man until Siren used her song to calm him down. Teaming up, they stopped the rogue faction when M-11 destroyed their power source at the Rockefeller Center. In order to keep their existence a secret, Marvel Boy wiped everybody but his team's memory of the incident including Spider-Man's.; During the Secret Invasion, Namora killed a Super-Skrull and was captured by other Skrulls. She was later rescued by Gorilla Man and M-11, and returned to Marvel Boy's Ship with a Skrull as a hostage. Dissecting the hostage, Marvel Boy learns the secrets of the Skrull invasion just as their location is discovered, the team defends the ship and Jimmy asks Venus to us her powers to kill the attackers. Venus doesn't want to use her powers to kill and Marvel Boy reveals that the Skrulls are not malevolent and just want to join the human and skrull race together. Jimmy however, is defending the human race and gets M-11 to wipe out all the attacking Skrulls.; The Atlas Foundation hindered the Skrulls' activities on the West Coast during their Invasion. Afterwards, however, the world had changed, and Woo and his team took a surprising step: to use Plan Chu's villainous reputation to present themselves as the Agents of the Atlas Empire. Their first act was to steal all the gold in Fort Knox, which Norman Osborn had earmarked for special weapons programs.; Then presenting themselves as valuable allies, offering to build Osborn weapons in a floating factory in the Hudson River. However, they are also letting the underworld know that Atlas is active, waiting for a hero or the authorities to come shut the factory down.; The Agents of Atlas successfully form an alliance between Namor McKenzie and the Atlanteans when Namora and the Sub-Mariner express their love and decided to marry. Despite Namor's pleadings, Namora decides to join the Agents of Atlas to further their goals. After Jimmy Woo learns of the location of his old love Suwan, now the Jade Claw, leader of the Great Wall. His visit ends up breaking an ancient treaty between the Atlas Foundation and the Great Wall that was unbeknown to Woo. Despite his love for Suwan, the Jade Claw's relentless assault on the Atlas Foundation's operations leaves him and the Agents no choice but to end her rule. After Suwan's defeat, Woo leaves Temujin in charge of the Great Wall as a new Asian branch of the Atlas Foundation.; During the War of the Realms, Woo recruited the Protectors as Agents of Atlas. The New Agents of Atlas were sent to defend Seoul when it was invaded by Sindr and her army. Woo was incapacitated during the battle, forcing Brawn to take command of the group but they are ultimately forced to retreat. Brawn recruited the South Korean heroes White Fox, Luna Snow and Crescent and Io, who were later joined by Aero, Sword Master, Wave and Pele.; In the team's counteroffensive, Aero, Wave and Luna were sent to the North Pole to reverse Sindr's melting of the polar ice caps while the rest of the team led Sindr and her army in an ambush in Northern China with their ally the Monkey King. The New Agents succeeded in stopping Sindr, although the Monkey King and "Pele" (who was revealed to be an Atlas android) sacrificed themselves in the process.; The New Agents of Atlas were reunited when Mike Nguyen of the Big Ngyuen Company generated portals in many Asian cities, communities and locales throughout the globe to connect them into the portal city of Pan. When Woo didn't respond to his inquiries, Brawn had the team continue protecting Pan while investigating Nguyen, especially after Pan was attacked by numerous Dragons and the Pan Guard was harassing refugees from Madripoor. Brawn recruited Giant-Man and reluctantly allowed Nguyen's lackey, the Protector of Pan, to join them as well. Meanwhile, Woo and Mr. Lao were secretly monitoring the New Agents to test their capabilities while they sent the Original Agents after the Cult of Nurong in Thailand; the Cult's dragon Mr. Thong warned them of an upcoming "Clash of Dragons".; The New Agents of Atlas discovered that the Big Nguyen Company had imprisoned an Atlantean dragon and were harvesting her scales to power Pan's portals while also discovering that Woo signed a non-aggression treaty with Nguyen between Atlas and Pan. Before a decision was made, Namor invaded Pan to reclaim his dragon.; In Atlantis Attacks, Brawn convinced Namor that releasing the dragon would undo Pan's portals and he gave the New Agents of Atlas one day to return her. Woo then introduced the New and Original Agents of Atlas to each other, while splitting members of both teams up to bolster Pan's defenses, find an alternate source for Pan Portal's and to send envoys to Atlantis. The dragon was safely released back to Atlantis but she went berserk upon returning; the Atlanteans discovered an implant embedded in her scales, enraging Namor to resume his assault on Pan.; Namor was subdued by the Agents and the Sirenas hired by Nguyen. However, the team comes to a disagreement when Nguyen proposed a retaliatory attack on Atlantis. While they were distracted, Namor broke from from his bonds. Namor and the Agents fought until Brawn got both sides to calm down and confronted Woo over the secrets he withheld from them. Woo explained that dragons have been using humans as proxies for conflicts with each other, with the current war between Pan and Atlantis being one example, but was aiming to maintain this balance of power with Pan and Atlantis, as an open war between dragons would destroy the world. In a last ditch effort to destroy Atlantis, Nguyen slipped an implant on Brawn, which turned him into his Raging Hulk form and put him under Nguyen's control. Just as Wave got the Atlanteans and Sirenas to come to a truce, Namor and the Agents fought Brawn until they revered him to normal, although shockwaves created by him sent a tsunami towards the Heart of Pan. Namor and the Agents succeeded in protecting Pan but Nguyen died while saving refugees from the tsunami. A month after the conflict, Shang-Chi and Brawn left the team while Woo prepared them to help Namor against the Knull.; During the Death of Doctor Strange, Woo led the Agents of Atlas against invading demons and sent Sword Master to deal with a rampaging Kumiho in the Korean countryside. He was joined by White Fox to confront the beast, but when they fought the Kumiho, his sword was destroyed and he was thrown into a ravine, but White Fox was able to slay the Kumiho. Despite the best efforts of the Agents and the Tiger Division, they were unable to find Sword Master.; However, Sword Master had washed ashore to K'un-Lun, where Shou-Lao saved him with his Chi and made him the next Iron Fist.; The Agents of Atlas joined forces with the Five Weapons Society to take down Crossfire, who was kidnapping People of Color and forcing them to participate as combatants in his illegal fighting rings. Brawn and Ms. Marvel rejoined while Sister Dagger and Leiko Wu were recruited for the mission.; ==Original Agents of Atlas==; Jimmy Woo; Namora (Aquaria Neptunia); Gorilla-Man (Kenneth Hale); Human Robot (M-11); Uranian (Robert Grayson); Venus; Later recruits:; 3-D Man (Delroy Garrett Jr.); ==New Agents of Atlas==; Aero (Lei Ling); Brawn (Amadeus Cho); Crescent (Dan Bi) and Io; Luna Snow (Seol Hee); Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan); "Pele" (M-41 Zu); Shang-Chi; Silk (Cindy Moon); Sword Master/Iron Fist (Lin Lie); Wave (Pearl Pangan); White Fox (Ami Han); Later recruits:; Giant-Man (Raz Malhotra); Protector (Isaac Ikeda); Sister Dagger (Zheng Esme); Leiko Wu; ==Atlas Foundation==; Mr. Lao - Adviser to the Head of the Atlas Foundation; Temugin - Second in Command of Atlas Foundation; Derek Khanata - Overseer of Atlas; Jade Claw (Suwan)

+Weapons: Many Acolytes have used energy rifles and other guns in the past.
+Trivia: Despite not being actively disbanded like other groups in their world such as the Avengers and the X-Men, the members appear to be retired and thus no longer operational as as a group.
+History:
+Little was detailed about the Acolytes' lives before the zombie plague arrived on Earth-2149, however it can be presumed to have followed much the same path as their Earth-616 counterparts.; The Acolytes (Fabian Cortez, Joanna Cargill, Lisa Hendricks, Reynolds, Burns and several unnamed members) and a surviving X-Men member Forge were among the few survivors hiding in the third Asteroid M. After Magneto (who appeared to be the only mutant left uninfected on Earth) helped Reed Richards from Earth-1610 and the other three survivors escape using Reed’s machine, he destroyed the machine, so the zombies could not use the machine to travel to Earth-1610. He was then contacted by the Acolytes, who offered to send him a shuttle. Magneto, however, told them to wait until he was out of New York City, but was shortly thereafter killed by the zombies.; Upon returning to Earth, the Acolytes couldn’t find Magneto, but discovered a still-living Black Panther and zombie Wasp “head”. Cortez recognized that the Black Panther was a human and alive, but the other Acolytes thought it was a trick, because Panther was also carrying the zombie Wasp head. Cortez warned his teammates to stand down, because they didn’t know anything about the Panther, so they couldn't do anything yet.; Burns disagreed and moved to kill Panther. In self-defense, Black Panther flung the Wasp head at Burns, and it killed him with a bite to the jugular. The other Acolytes started fighting Panther, but Cortez ordered everyone to stop fighting immediately. Panther and Cortez agreed to go to Asteroid M. The Acolytes realized they didn’t have much choice and complied with it, but they wanted to kill the Wasp first. Black Panther refused, because he wanted her to come to Asteroid M with them. Even Cortez wasn’t so sure about it, but accept to take the Wasp with them.; After the Acolytes and Black Panther arrived on Asteroid M, Reynolds decided to study and learn more about the zombies by using the Wasp as a specimen. Reynolds said that he could maybe even find a cure. Later, Forge arrived and introduces himself to Panther.; ===5 Years Later===; In the next five years, the Black Panther married one of the Acolytes, Hendricks, and they had a baby, T’Channa. The Wasp remained a zombie, but acquired a robotic body. The Acolytes, Forge, Black Panther and the Wasp landed back on earth. They found nothing left except plantlife and the ruins of old cities. The zombies were nowhere to be found; having either died or left the planet. The Acolytes, Forge, and Black Panther were the last survivors of the human species.; ===40 Years Later===; After all those years the acolytes survived in New York and renamed it New Wakanda, with T'Challa and Lisa Hendricks as their leaders, creating families and finding other survivors. Though dealing with the return of the zombie galacti, they were able to send them to another universe, along with T'Challa that was zombified. Malcolm Cortez promissed to kill T'Challa's grandson when he became older, also revealing he killed T'Challa's son, since he wants to be the king.

+Reality: Earth-11052
+History:
+The Acolytes are Magneto's team of mutants. He gathered them after the destruction of Asteroid M and his parting with Mystique, who had previously gathered the Brotherhood on Magneto's orders. The first mention of his squad was when Magneto approached Warren Worthington to join (he refused).; The Acolytes first appeared during Magneto's plan to reveal the existence of mutants to humanity. The team was revealed to consitst of Piotr Rasputin, codename Colossus, Remy LeBeau, codename Gambit, Victor Creed, a.k.a. Sabretooth, and St. John Allerdyce, codename Pyro. They fought against the combined forces of the X-Men and the Brotherhood, but disappeared once Bolivar Trask released his Sentinel and Magneto was apparently defeated by Wanda.; It was also revealed that Quicksilver, though a member of the Brotherhood, had been working for Magneto all along. Magneto later recruited Mastermind to manipulate his daughter Wanda's memories so that she would cease her vendetta against him.; For some time, Magneto enlisted the Brotherhood temporarily, handling them first through Gambit and then Quicksilver.; It is unknown how all of his Acolytes came to join. But it is known in the case of Colossus and Sabretooth. Colossus was blackmailed by Magneto, saying that his family would be harmed if he didn't follow his orders. Sabretooth was shown to believe that Magneto was the future for all Mutants and is fiercely loyal to him.; Following Magneto's apparent death at the hands of Apocalypse, the Acolytes were effectively disbanded. Colossus immediately returned home to Russia. Sabretooth and Gambit also left, leaving Pyro alone in the Acolytes' old headquarters, where he repeatedly watched TV footage of Magneto's destruction. Gambit later resurfaced, looking for Rogue's help to deal with a personal matter, and Colossus helped the X-Men battle Apocalypse's Horsemen in the finale.

+Base of operations: Avalon
+History:
+It all started a decade after Magneto was allowed to establish Avalon, a sanctuary for mutants that hovers over Earth. Magneto had decided to let his mutants rule themselves so that he won't be a dictator. Unfortunately, the Acolytes had divided themselves into two warring groups: the Isolationists and the Annihilates. The Isolationists wants to move Avalon to another system and the other wants to simply destroy humanity and take Earth for themselves. Magneto stopped the two from fighting when they nearly destroyed Avalon.; Days later, Hank McCoy delivered the very first baby born on Avalon. The parents are Rusty and Skids. Dr. McCoy discovered that according to the tests, the baby is born with the power to chose any mutation he wants. He may be the 'Ultimate Mutant'.; The two groups discovered the baby and feel threatened. They went up to Magneto for advice but since they didn't listen to him in the past, he told them to solve the problem themselves. So, the two groups teamed up and fight Rusty, Skids, and Hank to kill the baby. After a battle, Amelia managed to suffocate the baby with her power.; Later, Skids and Rusty left Avalon, hurt by what happened to their baby. Dr. McCoy followed them. Colossus was getting ready to leave but then confronted Magneto about the baby. It turned out that the baby was normal and that Magneto had altered the tests to give the two warring groups a mutual threat. Then, Colossus asked what would happen if a real 'Ultimate being' is born.

+History:
+The team consisted of a group of African superhumans who came to be after being infected by the retrovirus brought by Hyperion when he came to Earth.; The team was first encountered when the Squadron Supreme was present in Uganda, Africa to neutralize an African general named John M'Butu, whose voice can compel obedience. The general, however, is actually executed by members of the Protectors group who told the Squadron to leave, stating that "Africa is now off-limits" and under their protection and authority under threat of violence if the Squadron returned.; They were next seen when the vigilante Nighthawk had forcibly manipulated Hyperion into attempting to overturn the Sudanese government after witnessing the wanton slaughter and death committed by its leaders and attacked both Hyperion and Nighthawk in response. They later admitted to being ineffectual in solving Africa's problems and were impotent in attempts to improve all of Africa despite their power and decided to leave while ordering the two to never return to Africa.; It is unknown if they managed to retain their powers after the a mass-depowering wave removed the powers of anyone affected by Hyperion's presence on Earth. Though it was shown that some retained their abilities.; ===All-New Marvel NOW!===; The team was presumably killed along with the Squadron Supreme when Earth-616's Cabal destroyed their Earth during the incursion, so theirs could live.

Their agenda ran parallel from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s as they were for the people as S.H.I.E.L.D. was for the Baron.; They stopped the trafficking of humans mutated by the Weapon X program but when member Venus' power overwhelmed her teammates it led to the capture of Woo by the Baron. Teaming up with Director Phil Coulson, the Agents traveled to Zemo's main citadel to rescue Woo but they ended up running into to problems as Gorilla-Man was killed by Zemo's son Helmut who ended up having the Gorilla-Man curse passed onto him.; As they made their escape through the armies of mutates running around the complex they were stopped at their destination point by the Baron himself who shot and killed Coulson for his betrayal. But before Coulson died he relayed Marvel Boy who arrived with the package he was sent to retrieve, Venus. She used her abilities to manipulate the Baron forcing him to fall off the tower to his death. With the loss of friends, Marvel Boy telepathically raised his cloak around the team to make them invisible after Woo put the burden of leadership unto Zemo's son.

+Trivia: In an interview with TheWrap, showrunner Jac Schaeffer confirmed that Wiccan was indeed the fifth member of the coven represented by the black heart on Lilia's list (as she could not write his name due to the sigil).
+History:
+In a desperate bid to regain her powers after being freed from the Scarlet Witch's spell, Agatha Harkness agreed to accompany "Teen" to the Witches' Road while secretly planning to steal magic from any witch she can find. Requiring a coven, Agatha used the Covenstead Rule to locate Lilia Calderu. After some convincing and a vision, Lilia agreed to join and provided Agatha with a list of other witches that were destined to join her coven. Agatha and "Teen" than recruited Jennifer Kale and Alice Wu-Gulliver to the coven. Believing the black heart originally on Lilia's list represented Rio and not wanting to work with her, Agatha tricked Sharon Davis (the former "Mrs. Hart") into joining. Fearing the arrival of the Salem Seven, Agatha hurried her coven to sing the Ballad of the Witches' Road then tried to provoke them into attacking her to steal their power. However, when the coven actually did open a door to the Witches' Road, they had to hastily use the door to escape the imminent attack by the Salem Seven.; On the Witches' Road, the majority of the coven narrowly survived the first travel by learning to work together to brew an antidote to Alewife's Revenge. Unfortunately, Sharon did not survive. With Sharon dead, the coven summoned a replacement Green Witch leading to Rio arrival and joining the coven. However, they accidentally left a door open to the Witches' Road, which the Salem Seven used to enter the Witches' Road and attack them. Using flying brooms and the third trial to escape, the coven narrowly avoided a direct attack from the Salem Seven. Unfortunately, during the third trial Agatha absorbed the magic and life essence from Alice, killing her. In a rage over Alice's death and Agatha's callous behavior, Teen attacked Agatha by mind-controlling Jennifer and Lilia before depositing all three of them off the path of the Witches' Road and seemingly leaving them to die in the quicksand-like terrain.

They also served in the temple of Turan, controlling the priests of Tarim. They dwelt in the first tower on the road to Yimsha's pinnacle.; ===Against the King of Vendhya===; The Acolytes in the temple of Turan urged the Master to help King Yezdigerd of Turan.; Among the Acolytes was Khemsa, who served -his true allegiance remaining secret- at the court of the king of Vendhya, Bhunda Chand, at Ayodhya, the capital. There, he plotted with Kerim Shah (who plotted for the king of Turan), obtained a lock of hair of Bhunda Chand, then sent it to his masters, who used it to mystically cause the illness of the king, whom his sister Yasmina slew on his command.; The slave-girl Gitara convinced Khemsa into leaving the serving of the Black Seers, and fled Ayodhya with him. Unbeknownst to them, Kerim Shah heard their plotting. The Four Seers later appeared Khemsa as he approached Yimsha, and one caused Gitara to throw herself down to her death. Conan soon met with the agonizing Khemsa, who swore to destroy the Acolytes, the Four Seers and the Master. Unable to fulfil his wish, he gave Conan advices and his waist-belt given to him by a Stygian priest, before expiring.; Later that day, Conan met with Kerim Shah and his Irakzai mercenaries, and united with them. They approached the tower of the Acolytes and slaughtered them all, leaving only Conan, Kerim Shah, and four Irakzai. The party went on to confront the Black Seers.; ===The Idol===; At another point, Conan was sent by a Messantian collector to obtain the Idol from the Acolytes of Yimsha who fought fiercely to keep it.

While Doom hoarded all of Earth's magic for himself, the Acolytes were lefy to actually run the world in the master's name.; Tired of Doom and desiring to have free will and to rule for themselves, the Acolytes conspired against Doom. After years of planning, they turned on Doom and stabbed him with an anti-magic blade made from Mysterium mined by Onslaught. Wounded, Doom gloated that his magic was all that kept the worst horrors at the bay. They intended to use his collection of magic relics to protect what was left of the world from magical threats, only to learn that Doom had destroyed all of them, ensuring that magic died with him. After discovering that his vaults were empty, Killmonger finished Doom by cutting off his head. Bullseye reached for the Orb of Agamotto, which exploded and incinerated him.; With the magic protecting the Earth gone, Annihilus immediately broke loose in the Negative Zone. His emergence distracted Ghost, enabling Ava Starr to kill her and claim her suit and identity for herself. Annihilus then attacked Castle Doom, killing Yellowjacket and Crossbones. One his drones also secretly infected Abomination, allowing Annihilus to hide his consciousness inside of him.; As the Annihilation Wave was ravaging Earth, the surviving Acolytes, including Ava Starr who impersonated Ghost amongst them, were transported back in time to Earth-616 by Kristoff Vernard via the Time Platform, where they became the Superior Avengers.

+Transportation: Alpha Flight Omnijet
+History:
+Roughly ten years ago, James MacDonald Hudson, an engineer, resigned for the Am-Can Petro-Chemical Company in Canada when he learned that a special super-powered suit he had built for the company for use in geological exploration was going to be used by the United States military instead. Heather McNeil, the executive secretary to Hudson's immediate superior, Jerome Jaxon, also resigned from the company. McNeil arranged for herself and Hudson to meet with officials of the Canadian government, who heard their story and settled with Am-Can for any damage incurred when Hudson stole his prototype psycho-cybernetic helmet when he left the company. Hudson was then invited by the Canadian prime minister to participate in the creation of Department H, a top secret research and development agency within the Canadian Ministry of Defense. Soon afterwards, Hudson married McNeil, and within the next few years, Hudson had recruited the mutant called Wolverine as one of the Department's special agents.; Reading a newspaper account of how Reed Richards and three of his friends became the Fantastic Four inspired James Hudson to create a team of superhumanly powerful agents to go on missions for the Canadian government. Wolverine aided Hudson in the initial phases of the creation of the team, which would be called the Flight. The Flight initially consisted of Wolverine, Stitch, Saint Elmo, Snowbird, Smart Alec, and Sean Benard who became known as Groundhog after donning an early prototype of Hudson's super-suit. Walter Langkowski and Hudson acted as the support crew. The first mission pitted them against criminals led by Egghead who planned to launch a nuclear missile into New York City. While the rest of the Flight battled the super-villains, Smart Alec attempted to disarm the missile, but ultimately failed forcing Saint Elmo to sacrifice himself to destroy the missile. The failure greatly disheartened Groundhog, who left very soon after the mission.; The failure of the original Flight led to a massive reorganizing of procedure for the team. The standard procedure for recruits for Alpha Flight became that they would begin as members of a training team called Gamma Flight. Upon successfully completing their initial training, recruits would move into a transitional team, Beta Flight, to receive more advanced training. Those who proved to be successes in Beta Flight as well would finally join Alpha Flight, the team of agents who would participate in major missions.; Wolverine eventually left Department H for his own reasons and joined the mutant heroes of the X-Men. Hudson continued to develop his super-powered suit, and it eventually became the costume that he himself wore as a member of Alpha Flight and reluctantly became the leader of Alpha Flight after Wolverine's resignation. Stitch's fate has ultimately never been revealed, and Smart Alec would be demoted down to Gamma Flight.; Alpha Flight had eventually grown to six members: Hudson (as Vindicator), Shaman, Sasquatch, Aurora, Northstar, and Snowbird. One of their first recorded missions was to attempt to recapture the expatriate Wolverine, although they allowed him to continue his membership with the X-Men.; Soon afterward, however, the entire Alpha Flight program and Department H was disbanded by the Canadian government for financial reasons. However, Canada was invaded by the Great Beasts. Tundra, and the six members banded together with Beta Flight members Puck and Marrina to defeat the Beasts. The eight elected to continue acting as a team, although the majority of the members infrequently undertook the same mission, as the various members lived in different parts of Canada.; James Hudson seemingly died in the course of Alpha Flight's first major battle with a group called Omega Flight. Alpha Flight continued as a team with Heather acting in her husband's place as leader. In time, Heather adopted her own costumed identity. From then on, membership fluctuated occasionally. Other members would be inducted to the team as it continued, such as Talisman, Box, and Madison Jeffries, while others would leave for various personal reasons, such as Northstar and Snowbird.; The Canadian government later resumed its funding of Alpha Flight, establishing for the team a headquarters on Tamarind Island off British Columbia. Over time, the relations between the government and the team grew strained. Canadian intelligence agent and Alpha Flight liaison Gary Cody searched for a way to keep Alpha Flight in line. He resurrected the being known as Bedlam, who was created by Hudson in an early Department H program to create superhuman beings. Bedlam killed Cody and destroyed much of Department H before violently confronting Alpha Flight. Alpha Flight eventually thwarted the villain and his agents, but the team was nearly decimated. In recuperating, the team found itself hopping from planet to planet and even dimension to dimension. When they finally returned to their reality, the team nearly caused an international incident in China. Alpha Flight effectively disbanded after this.; In Alpha Flight's disappearance, the government created a new Gamma Flight to replace the team. The two teams clashed, and Alpha Flight was forced to stand trial. Ultimately, Alpha Flight rejected the government's support and decided to operate independently once more. Gamma Flight continued as the government-sponsored team, and the two teams eventually met again to fight the evil Llan the Sorcerer. Gamma Flight was nearly destroyed in the final battle, but Llan was defeated. Afterward, Alpha Flight was again reinstated as Canada's official superhero group, with members of Gamma and Alpha Flights reshuffling into various levels of Beta and Alpha Flight, as per Hudson's original vision of recruitment.; Superhuman registration came to Canada, under the influence of the Master of the World in a civilian identity, restricting Alpha Flight's ability to operate. They eventually came head-to-head with the Master and his Antiguard, a newly resurrected version of James MacDonald Hudson. The Master was defeated, but Alpha Flight and Department H were left in disarray afterwards.; Later, Department H was reinstated by the Canadian government at unprecedented levels of funding. The Department sponsored many institutions, including an orphanage called Hull House. It also formed a new Alpha Flight, with an inexplicably teenaged version of Guardian leading the team. In reality, Department H was involved in many clandestine and criminal activities, unknown to Alpha Flight. General Clarke was the administrative head of Department H, who operated a hidden agenda and employed brainwashing techniques and Epsilon Flight guards to apprehend and coerce suspected traitors within Alpha Flight. It is unclear whether he had the official sanction of the Canadian government. Eventually, Clarke was opposed by Alpha Flight, but died a hero when Zodiac invaded Department H, so his crimes were never prosecuted.; Clarke was replaced by Mr. Gentry at the request of the mysterious Director X. Although Gentry sought to change Department H for the better, banning all "black projects" and enforcing a kinder, friendlier attitude, he was still subject to the Director, whose true agenda remains unrevealed. Gentry believed the Department's primary focus should not just be Alpha Flight, but the people who make up Alpha Flight.; The teenaged Guardian was eventually revealed to be a clone. The true Hudson was ultimately revived by the original Sasquatch, and the two formed their own version of Alpha Flight to confront Department H. The two versions of Alpha Flight soon reconciled and joined together as one.; Wolverine subsequently helped the reformed team against the weapon-making terrorists of Advanced Idea Mechanics, during which the team regained a former member in Snowbird, but lost the younger Guardian who sacrificed his life to ensure the team's freedom. Alpha Flight returned the favor by helping Wolverine defeat the cannibalistic sorcerer Mauvais. Wolverine also briefly served as mentor to a new member, Earthmover, who was being groomed to replace Shaman on the team.; Alpha Flight's next challenge was of a very personal nature when Hudson was attacked and seemingly killed by an insane scientist who sought Heather's affections for his own. Hudson survived thanks to the mutant healing abilities of the X-Men's Angel and Heather gave birth to a baby girl.; The team were later charged with retrieving all the young mutants from the X-Men's home at the Xavier Institute, as the Attorney General's office, the Governor of Connecticut, and the Canadian government had deemed the school unsafe for children to inhabit. This led to a clash with the X-Men, which was quickly halted after the young mutant named Sammy agreed to accompany the Canadian heroes home.; After the race of alien beings known as the Plodex targeted Alpha Flight and captured most of the team, Sasquatch set out to gather a new team of novice Canadian heroes to rescue them. Sasquatch offered membership to Yukon Jack (king of a hidden civilization) and Zuzha Yu (daughter of Puck), but they both turned him down. Despite reviving Nemesis from suspended animation and awakening Centennial's long-dormant powers, neither of them wanted to join either. Eventually tricking them all into becoming a part of the team, and joined by the new Major Mapleleaf, son of the WW2 hero of the same name, Sasquatch prepared them for a battle with the Plodex, who were responsible for the disappearance of the prior members. Discovering that the Plodex ship was full of unhatched eggs, the group hit a moral snag; although the Plodex were a warlike race, many members felt they still deserved a chance to change. The infighting stopped when the prior Alpha Flight decided to take the Plodex back to their home planet and raise them themselves. Sasquatch's group, along with a young Plodex named Mar who stayed behind, were left to defend Canada. While out on a date Mapleleaf and Puck were attacked by wax duplicates of dozens of heroes, controlled by the Manimator, who Puck easily defeated with a left hook.; Following a struggle with a mind-controlled Big Hero 6, events spiraled out of control when the team tried to use time travel to save former enemy Flashback, whose future self had been killed in a previous battle. A series of efforts resulted in history being rewritten for the worse with each change they made. Sasquatch was ultimately able to enlist the past Shaman's help in stabilizing the timeline and save Flashback. This also brought a time displaced Alpha Flight from the past to the present. Soon after, Centennial and Nemesis apparently perished, Mar and Yukon Jack left, and Puck and Major Mapleleaf went to reserve status.; Alpha Flight sought to impede the progress of the supremely empowered Michael Pointer, but were decimated by his multitude of powers.; During the Chaos War, Guardian, Vindicator, Shaman, and Marrina Smallwood returned from the dead after Amatsu-Mikaboshi's victory in the death realms. They reunited with Aurora, Northstar, Sasquatch, and Snowbird when the Great Beasts appeared on Earth. They fight the Great Beasts until Amatsu-Mikaboshi appears and impales the Great Beasts.; During Fear Itself, Alpha Flight was shown protecting Canada from Attuma (in the form of Nerkkod: Breaker of Oceans). While Sasquatch, Shaman, and Vindicator was saving people, Guardian saved a news helicopter shot down by Nerkkod. As Aurora and Marrina Smallwood arrived to help fight Nerkkod, the female TV reporter from the helicopter commented to the viewers that Northstar wasn't with the team. After providing rescue efforts for the victims of the attack, Guardian managed to drive Nerkkod out of Canada by dumping him off the coast of Cape Race. Alpha Flight returned to their headquarters where they were betrayed by Gary Cody and his Unity Party. To make matters worse, Vindicator sided with Gary Cody. Six weeks earlier, Guardian and Vindicator had been unable to reclaim custody of their child Claire. Marrina was dehydrated, the gamma energy was drained from Sasquatch reducing him to Walter Langkowski, and the Unity Party had taken down Aurora and Snowbird as well. When Vindicator was bringing Guardian to the Box Units to be imprisoned, she was ambushed by Puck. After knocking out Vindicator, Puck told Guardian that he had just returned to life after his fight with Ba'al.; At Parliament Hill, Walter was informed by Agent Jeff Brown that the concussions he had when playing football would cause him to act less human the next time he changed back into Sasquatch and that he must achieve unity. Marrina pretended to give in to the Unity Party so she could break free. She managed to knock out Jeff and free Walter while Guardian freed Snowbird. Northstar and Puck found Marrina as Alpha Flight escaped. Alpha Flight soon learned that Gary Cody and his Unity Party were secret fascists. In order to find out where the Unity Party had taken Kyle Jinadu, Northstar abducted a Department H operative and used aerial torture in order to get the information out of him. After reclaiming Claire from her cousin, Vindicator assembled Alpha Strike -- consisting of Persuasion, Ranark, a Wendigo, and a brainwashed Citadel -- in order to spread the campaign of the Unity Party and to defeat Alpha Flight. In an undisclosed location, a captive Kyle Jinadu is confronted by the Master of the World where he revealed that he was behind the Unity Party, the formation of Alpha Strike, and what he did to Department H. Alpha Flight then robbed a treasury in order to fund a resistance against the Unity Party. While in an isolated area in Yukon with a resistance, Alpha Flight enlisted Taskmaster to help train the members of the resistance. Guardian, Sasquatch, and Shaman hatched a plan involving Aurora's bad personality. As Aurora's personality caused her to become unstable to herself and Alpha Flight, the Master of the World talked with Claire telling her about the Plodex. Alpha Flight managed to rescue Kyle Jinadu and they ran into Wolverine.; While on a beach in Ontario with Claire, Vindicator was visited by Wolverine who stated that the people in the United States are starting to be concerned about the Unity Party's actions, and seeing Vindicator call the rest of Alpha Flight traitors caused him to investigate. Wolverine managed to find Alpha Flight and learn of their revolution against the Unity Party. Wolverine agreed to help Alpha Flight and the resistance just as Alpha Strike attacked. During Alpha Flight's battle with Alpha Strike, Alpha Flight managed to capture Persuasion as the component of a cure for the Unity Process. Alpha Flight, Taskmaster, and Wolverine were prepared to take Canada back as Master of the World comes out of hiding. The Master of the World began his attack on Parliament Hill with Agent Jeff Brown and Claire present on his spaceship. He even killed Gary Cody upon him serving his purpose. Guardian continued to fight Vindicator as she orders Alpha Strike to free Persuasion and destroy the machine that she was connected to. Alpha Flight managed to defeat Alpha Strike. Despite being under Master of the World's mind-control, Vindicator helped Alpha Flight fight Master of the World when he threatened to kill Claire. After the machine Alpha Flight made successfully freed the people from Master of the World's mental control, Master of the World was killed in battle. Vindicator flew off with Claire as the rest of Alpha Flight celebrated their victory with the Unity Party abolished.; When the false Mayan Gods returned to Earth, Alpha Flight assisted Red Hulk in fighting them. One of the battles with the Mayan Gods ends up putting Aurora, Snowbird, and Sasquatch into comas. They were sent to Gamma Base and put into stasis tanks to recover. The recovery was quickened with the use of a magical totem and the three were all able to join their teammates and the Red Hulk in battling and defeating the returned Mayan Gods.; During Fall of X, due to Orchis' propaganda campaign, the Canadian government declared mutants a threat to the country with Department H director Erika Doiron reforming Alpha Flight as an anti-mutant task force made up of non mutant members (Guardian, Snowbird, Shaman and Puck) to hunt down mutants despite the obvious reluctance from the four. To supplement the team, Doiron restarted the Box program led by Roger Bochs Jr. to construct Box Sentinels. While apprehending Argent in Saskatoon, Alpha Flight was thwarted by Northstar, Aurora, Fang, and the new Nemesis, who fought them off escaped with Argent. Angered that Alpha Flight's defeat was widely shared on social media, Doiron ordered the Box Sentinels to be immediately deployed. Unbeknownst to the public and Department H, Alpha Flight was secretly working with Northstar's group to help smuggle Canadian mutant refugees to Chandilar.; While discussing their limited options, Alpha Flight realized that they could only send refugees to Chandilar for a single trip. With Orchis' mutant tracking technology at their disposal, Guardian proposed having the Box Sentinels only being deployed for confirmed mutant criminal sightings while both Alpha Flight teams will travel to refugee sightings and continue their charade to not rouse Department H's suspicions. When Feedback was spotted in Bend, Oregon, Doiron ordered Guardian's team to return to headquarters under threat of arrest, to avoid another public defeat to Northstar's team and to avert an international incident. To avoid blowing the team's cover, Guardian reluctantly ordered his team back while Northstar's team fought the Box Sentinels that were sent to capture Feedback.; Guardian's team was forced to watch surveillance of the battle at Department H headquarters. Fortunately, Northstar's team was able to teleport with Feedback to Turtle Mountain, Manitoba while destroying although damaging a few Sentinels although Nemesis was severely injured in the process. Due to the time it would take for the Sentinels to reach the mutant team, Guardian convinced Doiron to have his team sent first so that the two factions could secretly regroup. When both teams reunited, Guardian discovered that Nemesis was actually his wife, Heather. Remorseful for Nemesis' injuries, Feedback decided to turn himself in to Department H to buy enough time for Nemesis and Northstar's team to return to Krakoa North. While Alpha Flight and Feedback were escorted by Sentinels, Department H were Krakoa North's location due to Argent leaving during the night and immediately redirected the Sentinels there while Dorion ordered Alpha Flight to return with Feedback to headquarters. Guardian cut communications and immediately ordered Alpha Flight to help the mutants, despite knowing the consequences for doing so. While Argent was killed by Sentinels, Nemesis was able to teleport her mutant teammates, Feedback and the Krakoa North inhabitants to the Alpha Flight Low-Orbit Space Station but fell into a coma afterwards. With their ruse discovered, the remaining Alpha Flight members were arrested by Department H and branded traitors to the country by Doiron for assisting mutants.

+All-Winners Squad (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: All-Winners Squad (Earth-616)
+Full name: All-Winners Squad
+Other aliases: Invaders
+First appearance: All Winners Comics Vol 1 19
+Created by: Bill Finger; Syd Shores
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly United States of America; England, United Kingdom, Europe.
+History:
+===Origins===; The All-Winners Squad derives its origins to the period following the end of World War II, and the defeat of Nazis and Imperial Japan in 1945. President Harry Truman had decided to keep the Invaders active, recruiting the second Captain America, Bucky, Sub-Mariner, Human Torch, and Toro, as well as Whizzer and Miss America from the Liberty Legion which had recently disbanded. They operated with government liaison Betty Ross.; ===1946===; On one of their earliest missions, the All-Winners Squad were gathered by the Torch and alerted of a threat by a villain calling himself Isbisa, who had crafted a number of crimes based on the different ages of men. He also created disunity in the team by planting a letter that made it appear that the Sub-Mariner was working with him, causing a rift between the team and the Torch to work solo for the first time in many years. Each team member tackled the various crimes, succeeding in stopping Isbisa's subordinates unaware that this was all a means of distracting the team in order for Isibsa to steal an atomic bomb. However, the All-Winners Squad soon deduced Isbisa's ultimate plan and tracked him down to the facility where the plans were being kept and easily captured the villain and turned him over to the authorities.; In July of 1946 the All-Winners Squad were dispatched to Boston for the 11th Congressional Race. There they soon found that the Human Torch's creator Phineas Horton had created a new android dubbed Adam II. However, unlike the Human Torch, Adam II sought to conquer the world and plotted to replace Presidential hopeful John F. Kennedy with an android replacement. The All-Winners Squad was joined by the Patriot, who was covering the event in his civilian identity of reporter Jeff Mace. During the battle, Captain America was killed by some of Adam II's androids and the Patriot took his place and helped the All-Winners Squad destroy Adam II. Taken in by the government for questioning, Mace was convinced to carry on as Captain America and act as the teams leader.; By this time, Miss America had taken it upon herself to help keep the team popular in the eyes of the public. She commissioned out the groups likeness to comic book artist Otto Binder for an All-Winners Squad comic book about their adventures, and helped foster gossip in the papers about a potential romance between her and Captain America, even though she was really engaged to the Whizzer. The group also struggled to get alone, with Namor being highly critical of Mace taking over Captain America's role as he fought alongside the original during World War II.; The group next faced a threat from Future Man a time traveller from the year One Million AD who had come back in time to wipe out the human race of the 20th Century so that his people could leave their dead world of the future and find a new home on an Earth that still was teeming with life. Future Man recruited the aid of female crime boss Madame Death and plotted to wipe out the populations of each continent. Learning of this plot, the All-Winners Squad split up into teams to defend each continent, foiling each of Future Man's plots along the way. The entire group then attacked Future Man's ship and it was sent hurtling back in time a million years into the past in the aftermath of the battle. The group hit more turbulence when the Whizzer finally confronted Miss America about his feelings about her "romance" with Captain America, when the group was suddenly attacked by what appeared to be zombified American soldiers who died in the war, among them the apparent reanimated corpses of the original Captain America and Bucky. The zombie heroes tried to convince the current Cap and Bucky that they could exchange their lives to live again. Still uncomfortable with is role as leader of the All-Winners Squad, Jeff almost accepted when the Human Torch realized it was all a trick. Destroying the impostors, the heroes soon found that they were created by Madame Death, who returned from the distant past to get revenge against the All-Winners Squad after Future Man died of an ancient disease. During the course of the battle, Madame Death detonated her hover platform, destroying the All-Winners Squad base, and striking herself with a lethal piece of shrapnel. With the battle over, the team then had to consider a new headquarters. Jeff Mace suggesting that they take up residence within the Baxter Building.; In the summer of that year, the All-Winners Squad was briefly joined by Blonde Phantom. When the FBI learned of a plot to steal "Rosebud" an atomic bomb that was being shipped out of Las Vegas, the All-Winners Squad was sent out to prevent it from being stolen. They failed to stop mobster Dutch Rosenblatt from stealing the bomb as he was being assisted by a time travelling She-Hulk and Wanda Mason (The Blonde Phantom's daughter from the future). She-Hulk easily trounced the All-Winners Squad and they escaped with the bomb, but were unaware that the Blonde Phantom had climbed aboard their truck. The heroine forced the truck to crash, but She-Hulk knocked out Blonde Phantom and Dutch Rosenblatt then stashed the atomic bomb so she could recover it when she returned to her present. Following this adventure, Blonde Phantom apparently quit the team.; In September 1946 the team were sent to England to prevent atomic scientist Dr. Klaus Fuschs from being captured by Russian operatives led by the Red Guardian who soon figured out that the Captain America he was fighting against was not the original hero. Despite this, the All-Winners Squad succeeded in keeping Fuschs out of Russian hands and forced the Russian operatives to retreat. Upon their return to the United States, Captain America addressed the press regarding their recent adventure. Hearing this report was Jeff's old reporter friend Mary Morgan who had also become the costumed crime fighter Miss Patriot. She then came to visit Jeff at the All-Winners Squad's temporary headquarters. Having too many drinks she offended Jeff by asking to be his new Bucky and he threw her out before she could tell him that their old friend Jack Casey had died recently. When Captain America learned the truth, he wanted to attend the funeral. However, revelations that Jack was discharged from the military due to his homosexuality put the government in the position to deny allowing Captain America to go for fear of the image it would portray. The All-Winners then supported Jeff's decision to attend the funeral and deliver the eulogy in his old Patriot costume. When the funeral was over, the public reaction put an end to the Patriot's career. Afterword, Jeff had the Torch burn his costume. The Sub-Mariner's harsh recriminations about how Jeff ruined his legacy as the Patriot landed the undersea monarch with a punch to the jaw.; ===1947–1950===; Most of the All-Winners Squad's later exploits are unknown. In August 1947 the group battled Communist agents posing as "Little Green Men". The group also shared a mission with Union Jack, Destroyer, and Angel, inspiring the trio to eventually form the V-Battalion a few years later.; In August 1948 construction on their new Baxter Building headquarters was in full swing. The group was starting to grow together, although the Sub-Mariner still had his differences with Jeff Mace in his role as Captain America. The group spent a day at the Baxter Building celebrating Jeff Mace's birthday. Later that night Bucky was gunned down while he and Captain America were on a solo mission together. The All-Winners Squad came to Captain America's side as doctors performed surgery on Bucky. They all offered to help Cap capture the person responsible for shooting Bucky, by Captain America insisted on having 24 hours to capture the shooter alone, worrying the team, who suspected that Captain America knew who shot his partner. Eventually Captain America, with the aid of Betsy Ross (in her costumed identity of Golden Girl) captured the shooter, a criminal named Lavender. After the battle, Captain America then decided to leave the group to work solo again with Golden Girl as his new partner while Bucky recovered from his injuries. The revelation shocked the group, however the Sub-Mariner had grown to respect Jeff and finally considered him worth the title of Captain America.; Shortly after Captain America and Bucky left the team, the other members of the All-Winners Squad drifted apart. The Human Torch was sprayed with Solution X-R by Soviet spies and buried in the Nevada desert for a number of years, forcing Toro to retire from heroics. While the Sub-Mariner was stripped of his memories when Atlantis was attacked by Destiny. Miss America and the Whizzer eventually retired from super-heroics to become government agents.

This first mission was the only mission that included Killer Shrike.; Later the group tried to hijack a Taylor Foundation jet but were defeated by Night Thrasher who threatened to turn off their armors over the ocean if they did not deliver relief aid to Africa. By this time Oriole had replaced Killer Shrike as a member.; While fulfilling their bargain with Night Thrasher in Africa Tanager and Oriole were killed by the Soldiers of Misfortune operatives of the Undertow. Their teammate Sparrow was enslaved by the Undertow and presumably is still their operative.

After this unknown material was researched by S.H.I.E.L.D., and being called "Isotope-8", it was discovered it was the source of a form of energy that, uncontrolled can be lethal, but worked in the good way could bring the one who has it an unimaginable power.; Nick Fury told an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. to make a team with the most powerful superheroes on Earth to collect all the Iso-8 before villains could get their hands on it, for that, the supervillains made their own alliance a Syndicate led by Doctor Doom.; The Alliance had worked on different missions not related with the Iso-8, such as Mephisto's arrival on Earth.; After the Syndicate was revealed to be a facade for Doom's true plans, the Alliance had to face a new threat, the mysterious arrivals of alternate versions of numerous heroes and Agents from other universes in the events called Incursions.; In order to better study the nature of the Incursions, the Alliance was relocated to the Savage Land.

+History:
+===Origin===; As the 50-State Initiative was rolling in, Iron Man had Hellcat dispatched to Alaska. Due to the lack of resources, she would be the only member until second order.; ===Looking for Ssangyong Rexton===; During her flight to join her base, Hellcat decided to visit North Spirit. She ended up fighting with magical bears and a sea-monster until encountering seven witches in the Middle World. Hellcat agreed to help them locate and return their missing daughter.; On her journey, she banded with one of the magical bear, a water lemming, a talking stone calendar and a cat-like creature possibly going as "Manslayer". She eventually encountered the kidnapper of the witches' daughter on standing on a ship, separated from Hellcat and her group. Joined by an army of rabbits, she built a rabbit bridge to confront him and managed to aboard the ship.; During the ensuing fight, Hellcat and the "kidnapper" burst through a wall into the daughter's bedroom, where she revealed that he was his boyfriend. The daughter, named Ssangyong Rexton, then revealed the truth about the whole adventure, including that the talking stone calendar was her father.; Exceeded by Ssangyong's obstination, Hellcat ended up punching her to move on. Leaving the ship, the band burst the car into an ice cliff.; She eventually managed to convince Ssangyong to save them and sent them to the witches, after her father turned back to human form. After a quick brawl, the whole situation was debunked, and Hellcat returned to Anchorage for debriefing with Iron Man.; ===Dark Reign===; Offered commandment of the Initiative by Gauntlet (who had become its leader but didn't felt qualified), Hellcat refused, intending to return to her duty in Alaska. After Thor's clone awakened, Hellcat battled it along with the other Initiative members present at Camp Hammond. She also helped rescue the endangered civilians once the brawl was over, until Norman Osborn came to announce the camp closure.; Unnoticed by H.A.M.M.E.R. until before Siege Hellcat went rogue at some point, after a brief time as the Initiative Alaskan-based agent.

When the ruler of the Dark Dimension was finally defeated, and the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents returned to Earth through a portal, the backlash caused the Commandos to be sucked into the Dark Dimension, from where Coulson planned to retrieve them as soon as possible.

+Identity status: No Dual
+Species / origin: Alchemax Corporation's Board of Directors
+Reality: Earth-928
+Base of operations: Alchemax Building, Nueva York, New York, United States of America; Formerly:; Alchemax Headquarters, Nueva York, United States of America.
+History:
+===Overview===; The Board of Directors was the executive council which controlled and oversaw the activities and operations of Alchemax International. The Board, originally composed by Alchemax's top executives and chaired by Chief Executive Officer Avatarr, changed its roster several times.; ===Alchemax's Golden Age===; Under unspecified circumstances, possibly during or after the Heroic Age, the alien later known as Avatarr successfully took control of Alchemax from its previous owners, becoming the company's new Chief Executive Officer, and, possibly, its sole owner and shareholder.; Seized control of the corporation, Avatarr set up his personal Board of Directors, composed by Alchemax's Vice Presidents and Division Heads. Its roster included Anderthorp Henton, Alchemax's Director-General and Chief Executive Officer of Eco Central, Tyler Stone, Vice President of Alchemax's Research & Development Division and Head of Alchemax's New York Branch, Darryl King, Vice President of Public Eye Unlimited, and Paul-Philip Ravage, Commander of Eco Central.; It is known that powerful businessman Anthony Herod once held an high-ranking executive position at Alchemax, with even Tyler Stone reporting to him, as well as Tiger Wylde, future Dictator of Latveria, who was General of Alchemax Elite Corps, before leaving the company due to unknown causes.; Desiring to keep his very existence hidden from the public's eye, Avatarr had Director-General Anderthorp Henton acting as Alchemax's C.E.O. in several public occasions, also giving him full control of Alchemax Headquarters, where was located the Executive Boardroom. Avatarr, instead, resided in Alchemax's Military Department Tower, from where he controlled and oversaw that division. Tyler Stone's Research & Development Department, instead, operated in an high skyscraper located in Uptown Nueva York.; ===Eco Central===; When Eco Central's Commander Paul-Philip Ravage started suspecting that some high-ranking executives at Alchemax could be corrupted polluters, Director-General Anderthorp Henton contacted the Board of Directors in order to find a solution to fire Ravage without going into the public's eye. Henton then had Ravage labeled as a traitor, accused of conspiring with Hellrock's Mutroids, and legally fired him. As Eco Central's Chief Executive Officer, Henton did not choose a replacement Commander, instead having all the Eco troops directly reporting to him.; Tired of his subordinates' failures, Alchemax's C.E.O. Avatarr then held a Board meeting in order to review and discuss his Directors' performances. After having appointed Darryl King as the new Chief Executive Officer of Eco Central, Avatarr had Henton killed by an hired sniper. The Public Eye, no more under Fearmaster's direction, fell under Tyler Stone's Research & Development Division.; ===One Nation Under Doom===; When Victor von Doom became President of the United States by right of revolution, the Alchemax Board was invited to the White House to attend a meeting between the new President and the leaders of the major megacorporations. At the meeting, Doom slayed Avatarr, who revealed himself to be an alien, and appointed Tyler Stone as the new C.E.O. of Alchemax, as well as the Corporate Minister at Doom's Black Cabinet. As his first act, Stone appointed his biological son Miguel O'Hara, secretly the vigilante Spider-Man, as his replacement as Vice President of Research & Development at Alchemax. However, when Stone was shot by his ex-lover Conchata O'Hara and hospitalized, Miguel was forced by Doom to become Alchemax's acting Chief Executive.; Awakening from his comatose state, Stone unsuccessfully tried to regain control of Alchemax from his son who, in the meantime, has decided to keep his position to use Alchemax's resources in a better way than his father did. After having doctors declaring Tyler disable, Miguel ordered security to bring his father out of the Alchemax Building. As the new C.E.O. of Alchemax, Miguel O'Hara first formed a small personal Board composed by his Department Heads. After unrevealed circumstances, Tyler Stone regained control of Alchemax, back in the C.E.O.'s seat.; ===Board Membership===; ====Avatarr's Original Board of Directors====; Anderthorp Henton - Alchemax Director-General and Deputy Chief Executive Officer; Anthony Herod - President or Executive Vice PresidentIn Spider-Man 2099 Vol 1 34's second story Tyler Stone revealed he was actually scared by Herod, who held a higher position at Alchemax; Avatarr - Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer; Fearmaster (Darryl King) - Vice President, Public Eye Unlimited; Paul-Philip Ravage - Commander of Eco Central; Tiger Wylde - General of Alchemax Elite Corps; Tyler Stone - Vice President, Research & Development; ====Avatarr's Second Board of Directors====; Updated to Ravage 2099 Vol 1 1's events; Anderthorp Henton - Alchemax Director-General and Deputy C.E.O.; Avatarr - Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer; Fearmaster (Darryl King) - Vice President, Public Eye Unlimited; Tyler Stone - Vice President, Research & Development; ====Avatarr's Third Board of Directors====; Updated to Ravage 2099 Vol 1 11's events; Avatarr - Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer; Fearmaster (Darryl King) - Chief Executive Officer of Eco Central; Tyler Stone - Vice President, Research & Development and Public Eye; ====Avatarr's Fourth Board of Directors====; Updated to events happened before Doom 2099 Vol 1 30-31's White House meeting; Avatarr - Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer; Tyler Stone - Vice President, Research & Development and Public Eye; ====Federal Board of Directors====; Updated to the events of Doom 2099 Vol 1 31 and Spider-Man 2099 Vol 1 34; Miguel O'Hara - Vice President, Research & Development; President Victor von Doom - Owner; Tyler Stone - Chief Executive Officer; ====Miguel O'Hara's Board of Directors====; Formed when Miguel O'Hara took over as C.E.O. at the end of Spider-Man 2099 Vol 1 41; Miguel O'Hara - Chief Executive Officer; Other unrevealed directors; ===Executive Officers===; ====Alchemax Director-General====; Anderthorp Henton; ====Alchemax Chairman of the Board====; Avatarr; Alchemax becomes a federal property. - Position Abolished; ====Alchemax Chief Executive Officer====; Avatarr; Anderthorp Henton - Deputy C.E.O.; Tyler Stone; Miguel O'Hara; Tyler Stone; ====Alchemax Owners====; AvatarrRavage 2099 Vol 1 11 and Spider-Man 2099 Vol 1 13; President Victor von Doom; ====Vice President, Research & Development====; Tyler Stone; Miguel O'Hara; Miguel O'Hara becomes C.E.O. of Alchemax - Position Abolished; ====Chief Executive Officer, Eco Central====; Anderthorp Henton; Fearmaster (Darryl King); Eco Central was dismantled with the creation of Federal SHIELD by President Doom - Position Abolished; ====Vice President, Public Eye Unlimited====; Fearmaster (Darryl King); Tyler Stone; Public Eye became a Division of Federal SHIELD - Position Abolished; Public Eye, still a Division of Herod's SHIELD, operated under Alchemax - Position Abolished; Public Eye returned under C.E.O.

Three of the Aldermen have been killed and their relics taken by the Co-Op, when the fourth member, the Bonsai Master, was killed in Tokyo by a Monkey. The Aldermen tried to recover Bonsai Master's swords, but their activities were traced back to them. Monkey showed up at Charles LeHigh's mansion at the same time when Dot of the Cooperative did. With LeHigh, the Ogre rejected the advice of the Shepherd and decided to go on the offensive against their enemies, only to be killed as well, with the Cooperative now working together with Monkey and his friends. Yannis Calamarus followed him not long after.; Being the last survivor, Albert Rinkov grew tired of life and wished to pass the legacy of the Aldermen to others. He invited the Cooperative to a dinner at his estate, but only Bryce showed up, with everyone else expecting an ambush. Rinkov had a pleasant meal and conversation with Bryce, after which he shot himself in the head. His wife Valerie had been aware of his intentions and picked up the staff, becoming the next Shepherd, but had been taken out by the Cooperative not long after hes husband's death.

+History:
+The history of Alpha Flight prior to the major events of Earth-9997 is presumably similar to that of their Earth-616 counterparts.; Alpha Flight were Canada's premiere superhero team, and continued fighting for their country after the mutation of humanity. When Captain America recruited an army comprised of super-beings from different nations in his effort to stop the Skull, Alpha Flight were among the first to join. Guardian and Sasquatch were involved in Captain America's attack on the Skull in New York City.; Following the defeat of the Skull, and the Celestials, Alpha Flight were charged with defending the Human Torch set up in Canada to burn the Terrigen Mist out of the air in the region. They defended the torch against the fanatical Church of Immortus, but found themselves under attack by an army of Wendigo.; Most of the team lost their lives in the attack, with only Sasquatch and Guardian surviving. They were found by surviving members of the Moon Tribe, a tribe of humans unaltered by the Celestials, who took them in.; One of the Moon Tribe members surrendered his body to Guardian, who had lost his in the Wendigo attack. Sasquatch learned of the origins of the tribe, and their link to former Alpha Flight member Wolverine. Sasquatch and Guardian continued to fight as heroes, even after the destruction of Alpha Flight.

Wolverine once worked with them before he became tired of being used as their weapon.; After one of it’s members, Heather, pleaded with him to return to Canada, only to realise he'd been set up. Department H had tried numerous times to duplicate the Weapon X program with unsuccessful results, so they decided to learn from the source and discover how Wolverine managed to survive the procedure.; Upon realising that their tests weren't coming up with any results they could use, Heather demanded they stop conducting them, as it was hurting Wolverine. After an argument, Wolverine broke free, and left, telling Alpha Flight to never come after him again.

+History:
+After the passing of Canada's Super-Powers Registration Act, Alpha Flight tried to enforce the law peacefully, capturing unregistered super-powered individuals with restraint. They soon found themselves competing with the Hardliners who were willing to use extreme and violent means to end the "threat" of unregistered super-powered individuals. The Hardliners were a private army, backed by Joshua Lord. Lord also had supported the Registration Act's sponsor Robert Hagon. It soon became apparent that the Hardliners were capturing people with super-powers for experimentation.; After Hagon was elected Prime Minister, he enacted totalitarian control over the country over the next several years. He established a psi-web around the borders of the country. This invisible wall altered the perception of anyone leaving or entering Canada thus that no one outside of the country knew what was happening. The Hardliners began a wholesale slaughter of baseline humans while forcibly altering others into superhumans. The government cut ties with Alpha Flight and the Hardliners became the new enforcers of the law. Many of Alpha Flight's members were killed. It was soon revealed that Lord had been behind all of the changes.; Alpha Flight became a resistance movement, hiding in plain sight with Guardian operating from a space in New Montreal. With their team being killed or captured and hopes for success dwindling, Guardian decided that it was time to try and destroy the psi-web and get help from the United States. Guardian lead a strike team of surviving team members (Northstar, Talisman, Diamond Lil, Wildheart, and Feedback) to bring down the barrier. They were ambushed by the Hardliners and an invisible attacker. Members of the team were either killed or defeated, ensuring Lord's continued reign over Canada.

So, Alpha Flight attacked and knocked Nana out of the air. Alpha Flight joined with other zombies to attack the group, but they were then repelled by a community of robots called the Ennows. What became of Alpha Flight afterward is unrevealed; it's likely its members died when the Respawned's hive mind was destroyed.

+History:
+Alpha Flight's history is presumably similar to their Earth-616 counterpart's. A war erupted between the United States and Canada when the Squadron Supreme and a large army invaded the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia for their resources. Alpha Flight fought in the war, and many of their members were killed. The remaining members fought the Squadron Supreme at Quetico Provincial Park in Ontario where Alpha Flight's leader Weapon X managed to kill Hyperion after Shaman used magic to enhance his claws. Despite Hyperion's death, the Squadron Supreme were still able to dominate Alpha Flight. So, Shaman used a teleportation spell to enable him and his team to flee.; Two years later, the Squadron Supreme and their army continued to attack Canada in revenge for what Weapon X did to Hyperion with supporters of Alpha Flight being arrested and threatened with jail time and even death. Alpha Flight was constantly on the run, and its members felt disheartened. After an argument with Weapon X, Sasquatch left. After talking with ally Truett Hudson, Weapon X decided to send a message to their enemies. 10 days later, Alpha Flight fought some soldiers in Windsor, Nova Scotia and captured them. Weapon X then told the soldiers to give a message to Squadron Supreme Nighthawk: he wouldn't kill any soldiers if they stopped their raids in Canada and free their prisoners.; Sasquatch later returned and told the team that he discovered that the Squadron Supreme planned to try their prisoners for treason, which would result in execution if convicted, and the first batch of prisoners were to be held in Ottawa. Alpha Flight went to Ottawa to free the prisoners, but they ended up falling into a trap set by the Squadron Supreme. Hyperion, somehow returned to life, immediately attacked Weapon X. Shaman attempted to aid Weapon X, but he was unexpectedly grabbed by Sasquatch with the rest of Alpha Flight immobilized by the Squadron Supreme. After Hyperion brutally beat Weapon X, he had his teammate Doctor Spectrum take Weapon X to the far-off Black Galaxy. With Weapon X gone, the Squadron Supreme freed Alpha Flight's remaining members and their prisoners and ended their operations in Canada. After the Squadron left, Alpha Flight learned that Sasquatch had made a deal with the Squadron where Weapon X would be dealt in exchange for the Squadron leaving the rest of Canada alone. While his teammates were upset, Sasquatch felt that he had no choice as they had already lost. With that, Alpha Flight chose to disband.

+Base of operations: Mobile
+Notes: The Ani-Men should not be confused with the Animen, a group of New Men that were sent by the High Evolutionary to sabotage one of the Jackal's laboratories.
+History:
+===First Incarnation===; The Ani-Men were a group of criminals that were handpicked by the Organizer to orchestrate a crime wave that would benefit his reform party. The first incarnation of the group consisted of Gordon "Monk" Keefer as the first Ape-Man, Henry Hawk (possibly an alias) as the first Bird-Man, Townshend Horgan as the first Cat-Man and Francois "Frog" Le Blanc as the first Frog-Man who were also known, both collectively and informally, as the Organization. They were defeated by Daredevil who later fought them on several occasions, two of which the group operated without Frog-Man as the Unholy Three.; In his bid to take control of NORAD, Count Nefaria first both returned Frog-Man to the group and brought in a new female member, Veronica Dultry as Dragonfly, then his scientists subjected all five of them to experimental processes that gave them natural super-powers that duplicated their former artificial ones, but also animal-like appearances that corresponded to their super-villain names. Now known as the Ani-Men, they succeeded in taking over the Cheyenne Mountain Missile Base for Nefaria, only to be decisively defeated by the new incarnation of the X-Men.; Although having lost Dragonfly, who was confined to Moira MacTaggert's mutant research facility on Muir Island, Scotland, the four original members of the Ani-Men continued to work in Nefaria's employ. During a battle against Iron Man, however, all four of them were killed by a bomb that had been previously planted inside Nefaria's base by the Spymaster, who detonated the bomb and blew the base up with the Ani-Men still inside it. The only surviving member of this incarnation of the Ani-Men is Dragonfly.; ===Second Incarnation===; A second incarnation of the Ani-Men, who also referred to themselves as the Unholy Three, consisted of Roy McVey as the second Ape-Man, Achille DiBacco as the second Bird-Man, and Sebastian Patane as the second Cat-Man. Recruited by Death-Stalker, for whom the original Unholy Three had once worked for under a previous alias (i.e., the Exterminator), they also fought Daredevil. Ape-Man and Cat-Man were later outright killed by Death-Stalker for unknown reasons; Bird-Man escaped this fate, having already been captured, but was subsequently killed by the Scourge of the Underworld in the "Bar with No Name" massacre in Ohio. He has since been resurrected by the Hood and is the only surviving member of this incarnation of the Ani-Men, with his current whereabouts and activities unknown.; ===Third Incarnation===; A third incarnation of the Ani-Men consisted of Giraffe-Man, Great Horned Owl-Man, Pig-Man, and Rabbit-Woman. In their only known appearance they attacked a modeling convention in Milwaukee, citing animal rights issues as their motive. They blamed the modeling industry for everything from animal testing for cosmetics to the wearing of fur. The Great Lakes Avengers arrived on the scene to fight the Ani-Men, but were beaten to it by the Avengers, who quickly dispatched the criminals. This incarnation of the Ani-Men's current whereabouts and activities are also unknown.; ===Fourth Incarnation===; Later, a fourth incarnation of the Ani-Men appeared consisting of the third Ape-Man, the third Cat-Man and the third Frog-Man, and robbed an armored car.; Then during the Civil War the same group, now consisting of Ape-Man, the third Bird-Man and Cat-Man, were among the criminals that were seen being recruited by Hammerhead.

+Created by: Mark Gruenwald; Herb Trimpe
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Personal guard of Kang the Conqueror
+Reality: Multiverse
+Base of operations: Chronopolis
+History:
+Kang the Conqueror's handpicked commandos, the greatest warriors of all the ages, Kang was the only man to have defeated them in battle, and thus they swore loyalty to him as the Anachronauts.; When the Avengers (Black Knight, Black Widow, Crystal, Hercules, and Sersi) and the Fantastic Four (Human Torch, Invisible Woman, Mr. Fantastic, and the Thing) battled each other in Chronopolis, the Anachronauts were sent to deal with the intruders. The Anachronauts battled the two groups of champions, eventually causing them to surrender. However, they did not realize that Sersi had disguised herself as Raa, and that the heroes had allowed themselves to be taken captive in order to be taken to Kang. After Kang had revealed his plans to the heroes and confronted Terminatrix, Sersi revealed herself and freed the other heroes. The two groups then quickly dispatched the Anachronauts.; The Anachronauts were training and facing each other in mock combat. Then Sir Raston's Ebony Blade began to glow and lost its solidity. Terminatrix determined that this was a result of a temporal anomaly which had the Blade never be created. The erasing of the Blade from history had far reaching consequences and threatened Chronopolis itself. The Anachronauts time traveled back to the days of Camelot to undo the anomaly. They found that the Incinerators, a robotic race, had also time traveled back to Camelot and captured the Star-Stone. The Star-Stone provided the material that was used to forge the Blade. With the help of fellow time traveler Justin Alphonse Gamble, the Anachronauts defeated the Incinerators and captured the Star-Stone. Gamble made sure that the Stone would pass to the hands of Merlin who would create the Blade.; Gamble indicated that he was already familiar with Terminatrix and the Anachronauts through an unrecorded adventure. It took place in his past and in their future.; Terminatrix took control of Chronopolis and the rest of Kang's empire, impersonating Kang. As a result, Deathhunt 9000 announced that he and his team were quitting. Explaining that they had sworn to serve Kang and only Kang, not the Terminatrix. If Kang returned, he would know where (and when) to find them. Terminatrix threatened that, if the Anachronauts revealed her true identity, she would kill them and all their divergent selves. Deathhunt took it in stride and promised to do the same to her if she failed to look after Kang's empire properly.; Immortus, disguised as Kang, later tricked several of the Anachronauts into assisting him. Kang soon reasserted his control over the Anachronauts. During the events of Crossing, Apocryphus served "Kang" (Immortus). A chronal weapon was used to erase the country of Vietnam from the timestream. Apocryphus led a team of generic soldiers to investigate the country to see if it worked. They discovered a boy called Kim who was mutated by the weapon. Apocryphus was pleased as they were after specimens like Kim. He intended to recruit the boy.; Force Works (Moonraker, Scarlet Witch, and Spider-Woman) and their pilot Fisher Todd landed in Vietnam. They attracted the attention of Apocryphus. The team located the Temple of Agaphaur, a holy place of the Priests of Pama. There Moonraker recalled his past life as Gustav Brandt. Apocryphus and his soldiers attacked them. They had the upper hand until Moonraker sees them about to hurt his lover Spider-Woman. He attacked Apocryphus and knocked him out. Apocryphus' soldiers run away, leaving Force Works victorious. Moonraker took a temporal activator from one of Apocryphus' fallen soldiers. He used it to transport himself and his friends to the Works. They left behind Kim and an unconscious Apocryphus. Scarlet Witch assumed Apocryphus to be dead, though it was unlikely an Eternal could die so easily. Or stay dead for that matter.; Elsewhere, Deathunt 9000 was also busy with serving "Kang" (Immortus). He led the Strike Fireteam Decimal Four, a group of six cyborg soldiers, in tracking down the fugitive Hawkey. A corrupted Iron Man had asked them to do so. They found their target in the company of Black Widow and U.S. Agent. Deathhunt attacked and defeated both Hawkeye and the Agent. But then War Machine arrived and turned the tide of the battle. He single-handedly killed the cyborgs and defeated Deathhunt. To avoid capture and interrogation, Deathhunt used a "temportal" (temporal portal) to escape.; The Anachronauts defended Chronopolis against the invading forces of Immortus. A "time-twisting explosion" killed most of the team, leaving only temporal shadows of the dead. Only an injured Wildrun seems to have survived.; Another version of the team. was used by an alternate Nathaniel Richards to try and kill his Earth-616 counterpart and his allies. None of these Anachronauts were named.

+Created by: Louise Simonson; Bret Blevins
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Paradise
+History:
+The Ani-Mates were created by the mad scientist Frederick Animus. The Ani-Mator was hired by the anti-mutant organization the Right to study mutation, but he used their money to buy a private island he called Paradise where he made a race of animal men. The Ani-Mates were produced in lettered batches, those the Ani-Mator deemed flawed were destroyed. He treated the Ani-Mates cruelly, withholding food, making them go through deadly mazes, and killing those he found lacking or just felt like killing. There was a special whistle the Ani-Mator used to control his creations.; ===New Mutants===; One of the Ani-Mates managed to escape eventually ending up with the New Mutants who named him Bird-Brain. After spending some time with the New Mutants he led them to Paradise and his fellow Ani-Mates. The Ani-Mates were distrustful of Bird-Brain because he was associating with humans who they thought of as bringers of pain. Bird-Brain tried to convince them of the New Mutants good intentions, but before he could succeed the Ani-Mator who had been watching via hidden cameras used the whistle to send the Ani-Mates to his maze. The New Mutants decided to go through the maze themselves and encountered death traps as well as some larger Ani-Mates that ended up capturing them.; The Ani-Mator had looked up the New Mutants on his computer which puzzled the Right's leader Cameron Hodge who decided to investigate. Bringing his troops with him he discovered the Ani-Mator's subterfuge and in the ensuing confusion the New Mutants were able to escape. A fight then broke out between the New Mutants, the Right and the Ani-Mates. Bird-Brain was able to convince the Ani-Mates to side with the New Mutants and they managed to force the Right off the island. Hodge decided to drop some bombs on the island destroying it, but just then a giant octopus Ani-Mate reached up and grabbed his plane destroying it. After this the Ani-Mator was banished to Limbo (Demonic) and the Ani-Mates were allowed to choose their own path.; ===Mutant Liberation Front===; Later, the Mutant Liberation Front briefly took over their island and terrorized the Ani-Mates before leaving.; ===Condor===; Even later Condor came to the island as an actual condor and Bird-Brain used the equipment left by the Ani-Mator to restore him to his more human form.; ===Virusplague===; The Ani-Mates lived peacefully on the island, free from the outside world’s interference. However, their seclusion would also be a curse, as all the biological creatures and plants on the island started to get sick and no one was around to help them. The whole island was dying and the plague sent the Ani-Mates into a delirious state. When the New Mutants arrived Bird-Brain spotted the group and attacked them, injuring many of them with his razor-sharp talons.; After Warlock caged Bird-Brain, they found Ani-Mator's lab where they found that all the inhabits were infected by a virus that was designed to rebuild the Ani-Mator from available genetic material. They were soon attacked by a planet-like creature resembling Ani-Mator. They were absorbed into the creature, but with the help of Cypher and Warlock, they defeated the creature. After the cure, Cypher reprogrammed the virus to watched over the Ani-Mates.

+History:
+===Origins===; The Ant Men, also known as the Microns, were the last survivors of the Microverse. Their world was destroyed by the Psycho-Man, who used his Emotocaster to drive the entire Microverse insane. Among the victims of the Psycho-Man's plot was Arcturus Rann, former leader of the group, who was killed by his wife Marionette. Marionette and the remaining members of the Microns would soon realize that they would not attack each other as long as they didn't look at each other.; The Psycho-Man was only stopped by the Man-Thing, who was drawn to the Microverse by the fear emitted by its citizens. The Man-Thing consumed the Microverse, before dying in the process. The Ant Men managed to escape just as the Man-Thing arrived.; ===Universe X===; While Arcturus Rann was dead, his connection to the Enigma Force allowed him to remain in contact with Marionette from the Realm of the Dead. Upon his arrival in the realm, Rann bestowed his portion of the Enigma Force to Kree hero Mar-Vell. Mar-Vell orchestrated his rebirth in the land of the living, existing now as a binary being, both alive and dead.; Mar-Vell, aided by Rann, launched a crusade to destroy Death itself. The Ant Men aided him by keeping a watchful eye over Immortus, who was unwittingly being manipulated by Death's ally Mephisto. They also assisted Mar-Vell in retrieving the Emotocaster from the ruins of the Microverse.; The Ant Men tried to warn Immortus that he was being manipulated, but he did not listen, eventually resulting in the reassembly of the Absorbing Man, a disaster so great that Mephisto hoped Immortus would attempt to travel back in time to prevent it, thus creating another alternate reality Mephisto could manipulate.; Mephisto's schemes were foiled however, when he mistakenly referred to Immortus as Kang, causing him to realize that he had been manipulated. Mar-Vell succeeded in his quest to kill Death, while the Absorbing Man was convinced to cease his rampage and sacrifice himself to save the planet from impending destruction. Realizing the error of his ways, Immortus, spurred on by the Ant Men, apologized to his former rival Reed Richards for his mistakes.; The Ant Men would later attend the wedding of King Britain and Medusa.

+Reality: Earth-9997
+Base of operations: Savage Land; Formerly:; Wakanda
+History:
+The Ani-Men were Wakandan animals mutated into human forms and granted intelligance by the Cosmic Cube in possession of the Black Panther.; ===Origins===; During his final battle against the Red Skull, Captain America killed his old foe. In doing so, he gained possession of the Cosmic Cube. Knowing that he might be tempted to use the Cosmic Cube, he turned it over to the one person who would not use it no matter what and would also refuse to return it to him, no matter how badly he asked for it: the Black Panther. The Panther sealed the Cube in a special container in his shrine of the Panther God, where it would remain untouched for years.; During the time that humanity was being unknowingly mutated by the Terrigen Mist released into the air by the Black Bolt, wildlife all over the world became endangered as humans began to consume more meat. With various species facing extinction, the Black Panther converted Wakanda into a wildlife preserve. When the animals themselves began to mutate, T'Challa took this as a sign that the spirits his people worshipped were speaking through the animals. While T'Challa believed that the same catalyst that had triggered the mutation of humanity had transformed the animals, the truth of the matter was that T'Challa was unconsciously using the Cosmic Cube in his possession to grant the animals voice. The highly spiritual Black Panther would consult the Ani-Men for guidance.; ===Universe X===; Once the truth behind the mutation of humanity was discovered, and Reed Richards began building "Human Torches" around the world to burn the mists out of the atmosphere, Black Panther refused to support his endeavour, fearing that it would once again rob the Ani-Men of their voices.; Kree hero Mar-Vell had returned to life following the defeat of the Celesetials and embarked on a quest to gather items of great power to destroy Death itself. When he came to Wakanda in search of the Cosmic Cube, he revealed to T'Challa the truth about the Ani-Men's origins. This revelation unnerved the Ani-Men and prompted T'Challa to hand over the Cube to Mar-Vell.; Wakanda found itself under siege by an army of Wendigo. Desperate to save his people and the Ani-Men, T'Challa led them on an exodus to the Savage Land. Rallied by Dogface, a member of the X-Men, the Ani-Men helped the Wakandans fight off and defeat the Wendigo. After fending off an attack from Belasco and his Dire Wraiths, the Ani-Men were finally able to live in peace in the Savage Land.

After months of work, Pym succeeded in creating his first "cybernetic helmet", which would enable him to communicate with ants through transmitting and receiving psionic/pheromonal/electrical waves. Through this helmet, he managed to control a number of ants who would help him in his adventures as Ant-Man.

These Ani-Men had been "enhanced" and "re-shaped" by the Mole Man with "due consideration of" the Fantastic Four's "special abilities". Phineas Mason and his fellow prodigies had determined that the these Ani-Men were fungal in nature. As such they quickly developed a "Mushroom Gun" that destroyed the large group of Ani-Men.; The Ani-Men defended their master when he was captured by the Lava Men.

+Formed by Cosmo as an extension of Star Lord's dream of true galactic guardians consisting of the most powerful and formidable warriors in the galaxy, they were gathered to prevent Blastaar from conquering the Kree while they were at their weakest.; Upon meeting at the cosmic gateway known as Knowhere, a disturbance is detected in the Dark Nebula. The team arrives at the Galadorian stronghold known as The Keep and soon faces a crisis involving the criminal Doctor Dredd, a Wraith Warlock presumed dead. Dredd has created a 'Cutting Edge" around him able to slice even the Silver Surfer. The Annihilators find that the dreaded Black Sun has been removed from its cloak in the Dark Nebula.; The Galadorians had cloaked it to prevent its sorcerous emissions from empowering their Dire Wraith enemies. The team tries to apprehend Dredd but find they are unable to contain him. Dredd proceeds to Galador through a 'hole in nowhere' he creates as a portal. He is soon followed by the Annihilators who find themselves faced with the relocated Black Sun merging with Galador's sun and once again empowering the sorcerous Dire Wraiths. Ronan is able to negate Dredd's 'edge' and subdue him. The Silver Surfer begins questioning Brandy Clark about how Dredd could have obtained access to The Keep and reveals the nearby Volx, the Dire Wraith Queen. Volx attacks the Surfer causing an accidental mind meld before she is subdued.; The Surfer realizes that Volx is insane and leads the team, with the captive Volx, into Limbo to learn the fate of Wraithworld. They are found on the dead planet by Immortus who sends his Army of the Ages to attack them. Quasar confronts Immortus who chooses to halt his attack and allows the Annihilators to remove Wraithworld from Limbo. They return to the Galadorian system and the Surfer leads Ronan and Quasar into the two stellar masses that are about to go Supernova.; Using the combined Cosmic, Universal, and Quantum powers they are able to fuse the two suns together then adjust the orbits of Galador and Wraithworld so that the first always faces the natural yellow sun while the second always faces the half that is the Black Sun. An uneasy detente having been formed between the two ancient enemies, the Annihilators return to Knowhere. Ikon offers to show Quasar the secret ways her armor may be removed and at that moment another distress call comes in concerning a sentient black hole attacking galaxy K-123.

+First appearance: Astonishing X-Men Vol 3 25
+Created by: Warren Ellis; Simone Bianchi
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Mutant Annex Squads sent from Earth-89149 to Earth-616
+Reality: Earth-89149
+Base of operations: Mobile on Earth-616, seen in San Francisco, California; Tian, China; Chaparanga, Indonesia
+Equipment: Ghost boxes
+Notes: Those teams were never named officially, and designated as "Annex Squads" by Forge. A few other names were used to designate them: "Tree Men", "His friends", "the 13s", "a recon force", "alternate-world mutants", "the first team", "the second team".; The name "Annex Squads" also used for the invading forces ravaging Earth-92272, and seems the more appropriate.
+History:
+===Overview===; The Annex Squads are teams of mutants from Earth-89149, gathering intels on Earth-616.; ===The First Team===; The first team was discovered by Forge, who has them killed; ===The Second Team===; This team of mutants was sent by the authority of Earth-89149 when the first recon force had been destroyed by Forge's efforts. Those were looking for realities with less of mutants to defend them, having been affected by the M-Day, in order to annex them for an unknown reason linked to a speculated toxicity of the Ghost Boxes, trans-reality transportation devices.; They invest the city of Tian as a base of operation. They were tracked during their mission of observations on the X-Men and mutants of Earth-616 by the "New Mutants".; The two antagonist teams end up in Tian, where the invaders looked for a power-source to charge their Ghost Box. As the city was powered by the Chinese mutant community living there, dead since the M-Day, they couldn't find it, and so Agent X-13 split from the group with the Box. He was followed by one of the artificial mutants, one with flight powers, whose was killed by X-13 in San Francisco and whose corpse was found by the X-Men, who started to inquiry on the subject.; Using the "Triploid Mutant"'s notebook, the X-Men visited Chaparanga, a garbage dump for alien ships. There X-13 had found a power-source and a shelter in one of the ships still in the air, but was followed and cornered by the X-Men, and prefer suicide rather than surrender.; The heroes then followed an other trail leading to Tian, where they captured the last artificial mutant and terminated the two remaining scouts, an inhibitor and a laser-striker, after having obtained from the three exotic mutants the name of the man behind the current Secret War: Forge.; This one revealed to the X-Men the history of his Secret War, and indicate that there was been already two teams of scouts, and possibly others would come. The alternate reality Earth was seemingly destroyed, but Armor made the hypothesis of a stating area.; ===Since then===; Later, the X-Men were called in the African country of Mbangawi to investigate on the apparition of powered babies, who revealed to be Warpies, Henry McCoy stated that there was some radiations analogous to Ghost Boxes' ones, Wolverine speculated that the invaders were trying another annex. It was soon revealed that the radiation were emitted by an alternate version of James Jaspers, who was later followed by mass-produced Furies who actually used Ghost Boxes.

+History:
+Agent X-13 and his teammates were able to analysed "Earth-616"'s defenses along with the other members of his Annex Squad, concluding there were in the North Hemisphere of Earth lots of mutates and enhanced people, but very few of Mutants.; The annexation was effectuated when Agent X-13 activate their Ghost Box and link it to a site safeguard cage, to protect with it the emergent Deathlok-Class Units, including one using an alternate Magneto who defeat the X-Men, killing Storm, Emma Frost, and bending Wolverine's legs. X-13 was sent back to his world as this earth was conquered within a week by the Deathlok class Units, who made the autonomous decision to annex the reality.; During his report about the emergency annexation of "Earth-616" in front of his military superiors, X-13 claimed to have only made his job, acted in the cadre of the protocols and recommendations, and with no regrets, while his superiors harassed him with questions. X-13 then leaved, stating the locals would resist, probably for years, and it was not of his business.

+History:
+The Amazon Tribe were a group of women that lived in solitude within the Valley of Flame that claimed to have been descended from Ancient Greeks who were stranded there after passing through a bizarre storm. Like typical Amazons, they were tall, strong, and skilled fighters. They were also all blonde and had deep distrust of men.; One day, Karl Kaufmann aka the Phantom Eagle and Clementine Franklin-Cox washed ashore near the Amazons' village. The pair were flying in Kaufmann's plane to Singapore in the domain of Far East when it was downed by flying dinosaurs. They then stole a boat they took from a tribe of pygmies in search of aid but lost their boat when they were caught in the middle of a fight between a dinosaur and a giant crocodile.; The Amazons then took Kaufmann and Clemmie to their fortress. Clemmie talked with the Amazons and told Kaufmann that the Amazons thought he was her slave, which she confirmed or else he would have been killed by them. After Clemmie joined the tribe through a ceremony, Kaufmann found a cell where two old men were being kept by the Amazons and tried to save them, but he was caught in the act and was captured. He tried to fight for his freedom, but he was defeated in an one-on-one fight against Big Di, the tribe's champion. The Amazons then planned to have him castrated.; Kaufmann loudly begged for his life. Clemmie was able to convince the Amazons to banish him instead, noting that Karl's idiocy and pathetic display has saved him. Kaufmann later befriended the pygmy tribe he stole the boat from earlier and convinced them to fight the Amazon Tribe. During the fight, he snuck into the Amazons' fortress and stole the parts he needed from an old F.E.2 in their possession to fix his airplane.; Kaufmann managed to escape while Clemmie chose to remain with the Amazon Tribe.

+Weapons: Swords, Machine guns, Handguns, Tonfas and Spears
+History:
+The American Ninjas were all volunteers who went through years of training, received genetic modifications, a variety of mental implants and drugs that granted them enhanced strength, endurance, speed and more. The process also shortened their life spans incredibly and they got their vocal cords cut because otherwise all they would do is scream. In addition they received brainwashing by a machine that sent out a neural inhibitor feed that kept them in line, hid memories of what Raven had done to them and gave them the orders they followed without question.; At Raven Lab 722 in New York Spider-Man and Spider-Girl fought several of Raven's American Ninjas. Armed with swords, machine guns, handguns, tonfas and spears the American Ninjas did all in their power to take down the two heroes. One of them tackled Spider-Girl through a window and Spider-Man had to save her. They returned to knock out the remaining American Ninjas and Spider-Girl nearly joked one of them to death because she was still upset about her father's death and didn't understand why the American Ninjas allowed their creators to shorten their life span and basically cause their early death. Spider-Man calmed her down before she went too far.; Spider-Man and Spider-Girl had another run-in with American Ninjas and a powerful red robot at another Raven outpost. They defeated the American Ninjas and Spider-Girl rewired the robot's programming and uploaded a game into his operating system that made the pigs from the game its target and not them.; Emeline Foster was accompanied by two American Ninjas when she presented Spider-Girl with her new costume after Raven had kidnapped Spider-Girl's roommate and her roommate's father. She tried to blackmail Spider-Girl into joining them and gave her one minute to make a decision. Spider-Girl, who had just regained spider-powers easily beat up the American Ninjas, webbed up Foster and forced her to tell where her roommate was kept.; Spider-Girl went to the main Raven base (R1) to save her roommate and her roommate's father with her returned powers. She contacted Spider-Man to tell him where she was before entering the base and fighting her way through American Ninjas and other Raven operatives, including Kurt Godwin, who had posed as her neighbor to gather information on her. During the fight she discovered information that could shut down half of the U.S. Military and called the Red Hulk to inform him where she was because he had been after Raven for killing a friend of his. Godwin's attempt to escape was foiled by Spider-Girl when she tossed part of the machine at an American Ninja before causing a blackout. Godwin ordered the American Ninjas to use night vision before Spider-Girl picked them off one by one. The American Ninjas fired into the dark, but were still picked off one by one. Spider-Girl wasn't afraid to face Godwin, who accidentally shot and damaged the machine that kept the American Ninjas docile. The American Ninjas finally remembered what Raven had done to them and turned on Godwin, who apologized for killing Spider-Girl's father. Even after learning that he was responsible for her father's death, Spider-Girl saved Godwin from the American Ninjas. Aided by Red Hulk and Spider-Man all American Ninjas and the rest of Raven were defeated and Spider-Girl's roommate Rocky Flint and her father were saved.

+Equipment: Eye of Agamotto; Time Stone: The Time Stone is housed within the Eye of Agamotto. There were rumors and speculation around why the Ancient Ones affixed their mind's eye to the Time Stone. One rumor suggested that their use of the Time Stone in the Dark Dimension forced their minds to operate strictly in the metaphysical world by enabling them to live in every possible past, present and future. Another rumor speculated that the Ancient Ones had a sinister bargain with Dormammu.; Wand of Watoomb: Capable of recycling the energy from mystical attacks to either heal its wielder, conjure magical blasts or create defensive barriers.
+History:
+===Origins===; In their individual realities, those who became the Ancient Ones were once Doctor Stephen Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme and master of the Sanctum Sanctorum. Through his study of magical objects and the Book of Vishanti, Doctor Strange was guided to the Time Stone that he used to see into the catastrophic future. Strange's warning to his mentor, the Ancient One, ultimately went unheeded and their home on the Island of Agamotto was dimensionally shattered by what was remembered as the Great Cleft.; The surviving Doctor Strange variants were changed forever after losing their mentors and their lovers, Clea. They vowed to protect all realities from the possibility of another catastrophic Great Cleft and affixed their mind's eye to the Time Stone. Upon their return from the Dark Dimension, the Strange variants assumed the Ancient One's mantle. After stabilizing the chaotic dimensional fragments into the Isles of Agamotto, the Ancient Ones established the Temple of Vishanti to teach those who sought knowledge in exchange for their devotion to mulitversal defense.; ===Council of Shawarma===; The Ancient Ones were publicly neutral during the Maestro's conquest across Battleworld since the Temple of Vishanti could not support a war on two fronts. Despite this, an Ancient One colluded with the other Barons of Battleworld to apprehend and depose the Maestro. When the Maestro proved to be too powerful, the Ancient One summoned the alternate reality counterparts of the Barons to assist their attack. These collective efforts demonstrated to the Chronoserpent, who killed Maestro using Glykhan, that the Barons could become Battleworld's new tyrants. Afterwards, the Ancient Ones joined the other Barons into the Council of Shawarma to deter the Houses from warring. For the Deathmatch arena, an Ancient One took a Cosmic Cube from an unknown reality and created astral projections of its power that gave random chaotic effects upon contact.; The Ancient Ones began summoning Kali and her variants to the Battlerealm to gather knowledge against an "unknowable foe". When they didn't return, Agatha exchanged her services for the Web-Warriors's intel on the Ancient One.; ===Elegy===; After a year of investigating, the Anathi returned to the Maestro's throne room at the whim of an anonymous tip where the Barons revealed to her that they all contributed to the Maestro's death. When the present Ancient One elaborated by using his Time Stone to transport Anathi and himself to the Maestro's death, the two were spotted by Glykhan, who abducted Anathi to the Chronoserpent's asteroid for questioning. The Ancient One attempted to intervene, but he was effortlessly defeated by a spark of the Chronoserpent's energy. After Anathi freed herself, another Doctor Strange of unknown affiliation to the Ancient Ones, summoned Galactus as a force to balance against the Chronoserpent's power.; The Ancient Ones were among those who evacuated from Battleworld before the Chronoserpent and Galactus could ravage the planet in their conflict.

Before being kidnapped, Pym managed to send a message to his ants, who then passed it along to Janet. The Wasp followed the sound of Trago's trumpet to the hideout and knocked him out with a kick to the head before engaging the Window Washer. The Protector ordered the Time Master to hit Ant-Man with a blast of his Time Ray, aging him up several decades. The increase in age lead to a decrease in body mass, allowing Ant-Man to slip free of his shackles and knock the Time Master out. Using the Time Ray, Ant-Man restored his true age, and aged the Window Washer's spry bottle 500 years, causing it to disintegrate and spill paralyzing fluid all over him. The Protector tried to flee out the window, but Ant-Man had secretly shrunk down and hitched a ride on his shoulder. Ant-Man grew to normal size and knocked the Protector out. The Ant-Agonists were subsequently arrested.

+History:
+Leora, Amazon Queen of Ophir was assisted by her Ophirian Amazons. They were known to capture men for slow torture.; During the invasion of Aquilonia by the alliance of Ophir, King Tarascus II's Nemedia, and King Xantaus' Argos, the Ophirian Amazons put out Zelata's eyes and slew her familiars. They later harshly welcomed Crassus into the invaders' camp.; Later, after the invasion was foiled and the alliance fell apart, Xantaus camped at the Alimane River, where an Amazon came to propose a place and time for he and Leora to meet and reforge their alliance. Camping in Zingara, they had Crassus guarded and brought to them by an Amazon.; During the siege of Belverus, capital of Nemedia, by the Aquilonian forces, Conan offered safe conduct to the women and children of Belverus. Those thousands of refugees fled to Numalia but were driven out, sent to beg for Queen Leora's help. Leora met them at the pass between Nemedia and Ophir, where she had her Amazons crush the refugees under boulders.; Having defeated Nemedia, Conan's forces turned toward Ophir. Conan foiled the ambush at the pass by having his Kushite legion, led by Kuaga, outflank them. Though saving the scouts below, the Kushites were soon outnumbered by the Amazons, and were themselves saved only by Servius Gallannus' Bossonian archers dispatched on Conan's orders.; In Zingara, Amazons pursued El Mullah to make it seems like he was an ally of Conan with urgent news. They were later deployed along Argos' and Ophir' armies, and their Zingaran allies, to stop the Aquilonian alliance forces (made up of Aesir, Cimmerians, Kushites, and Zingarans) on their way to Kordava. Despite their numbers, the Ophirians and Argosseans were crushed by the return of Conan, believed dead, and the Aquilonians were free to set up camp before Kordava's walls. Amazon sentries were slain during the infiltration preceeding the conquest of Kordava.

+On Earth-776, the Avengers disbanded shortly after the Hulk departed from the team due to their lack of trust in him. Unable to come to an agreement on how to deal with the Hulk, the Avengers disbanded. Shortly thereafter the Hulk formed an alliance with the Sub-Mariner and issued a challenge to Iron Man daring the Avengers to battle them, unaware that the Avengers split up.; Stark built suits of Iron Man armor for Rick Jones and his former Avengers teammates Giant-Man and the Wasp. However, Iron Man lost his temper with them when they would prove less adept at learning how to operate the armor than he did prompting them all to abandon him.; When Iron Man battled the Hulk and Sub-Mariner alone (after super-charging his armor) he was beaten to the point near death until the other Armored Avengers (convinced to try being a team again by Rick Jones) entered the battle. They faired poorly against the two villains, Giant-Man's armor being damaged in the battle. Iron Man sacrificed his life giving the last bit of power in his armor to revive Giant-Man. The battle ended when the Hulk realized that one of the Armored Avengers was his friend Rick Jones and turned on Namor. With the battle ended, the remaining Armored Avengers learned that Iron Man was really Tony Stark.; If the Armored Avengers continued to operate following the death of Tony Stark remains unrevealed.

Agent Venom and Red Hulk, having recovered from their encounters with their antitheses, arrived soon afterwards and killed X-666. The Evangelist then killed the Red Hulk while Encephalon dealt a death blow to the Ghost Rider, who used what little time she still had alive to escape from there. Alone, Agent Venom took on the two remaining Antitheses and managed to kill them.

+Species / origin: The twin heirs of Archangel, taken by Kang to the future.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Equipment: Life Seed
+Death Seed
+Weapons: Jarnbjorn
+Transportation: The Akkaba Ark
+Notes: "Apocalypse" is referring to the mantle of evolutionary caretaker, not En Sabah Nur. Their father, Archangel, had succeeded Apocalypse during the Dark Angel Saga, and the Twins are Archangel's heirs.
+Trivia: The Twins consider the current Angel to be a "fraud" of their true father (Archangel).; Kang had spent hundreds of years, going forwards and backwards in time thousands of times, in trying to prevent the advent of the Twins before kidnapping them. In many timelines, he was killed by them.
+History:
+When Archangel (under the influence of a Death Seed) was leading Clan Akkaba, the Final Horseman of Pestilence Ichisumi became pregnant with his heirs. Some time after Archangel's defeat, Ichisumi gave birth to the twins Uriel and Eimin under the North Pole at Akkaba Metropolis, but they were kidnapped by Kang the Conqueror and disappeared into the timestream. While growing up, Kang was extremely cruel to them and did unspeakable things such as sending them to mutant concentration camps as children and forcing Uriel to slash his own sister's eyes.; The Twins reappeared in the modern era, when Genocide, son of Apocalypse, contacted a Celestial Gardener. He hoped to receive the Death Seed and replace Apocalypse as Archangel had. As the Gardener judged his worth, Uriel and Eimin appeared. Using the axe Jarnbjorn, Uriel killed the Gardener. Together, he and Eimin defeated Genocide's forces. They then attacked the Peak. They next travelled with Thor and Sunfire to Akkaba City. Seeing how most of Clan Akkaba was depowered, they killed most of them and destroyed the city. The Twins used Life Seeds and Death Seeds harvested from the Gardener to resurrect the Sentry, Banshee, Grim Reaper, and Daken as the Four Horsemen of Death.; ===Ragnarok Now===; The Twins framed the Earth for the death of the Celestial Gardener so that Exitar the Executioner would arrive to the planet and destroy it. This was part of their vengeance against their father as they wanted to eliminate the Earth and all of its futures, thus erasing Kang's kingdom. Thanks to their Tachyon Dam, neither Kang nor Immortus could travel to the past to stop the Twins. The Apocalypse Twins convinced the Scarlet Witch to cast a spell in order to bring every mutant to their Ark to ensure the survival of mutantkind while humanity died with the Earth, so that mutants could live in paradise on Planet X.; In a divergent timeline, their plan would have succeeded, but intervention from Kang and his Chronos Corps sent the minds of the Avengers Unity Division back in time, bypassing the Twins' Tachyon Dam, to thwart their plan. In this new timeline, Exitar was killed before he could destroy the Earth and Kang revealed that it was all his plan to gain the power of a Celestial. As Havok was fighting Kang to stop him from stealing the Celestial's power, Sunfire used part of the absorbed energy of the Celestial to destroy the Apocalypse Twins and their Ark. Daken and Grim Reaper, the two remaining Horsemen under the service of the Twins, managed to get back to Earth along with the Twins' corpses.

+History:
+In the wake of the World War Hate, the Red Onslaught released his Stark Sentinels, robots designed specifically as countermeasures against super heroes. These Sentinels had been unwittingly designed by Iron Man himself under the telepathic influence of the villain, using the subconscious knowledge lingering in his brain of his files on super heores from the Civil War.; Magneto recruited numerous super villains to join forces against the common threat the Red Skull represented, and managed to turn the tide of the battle for enough time so the Scarlet Witch and Doctor Doom could cast a spell to invert the Red Onslaught's personality and defeat him. However, the spell affected all of those present in the battle, including Magneto's group. Thus, the heroes became evil, and the villains of Magneto's group became good. After the Red Onslaught was defeated, the villains from the group went separate ways.; After it was noticeable something was wrong with some of the Avengers and the X-Men, Steve Rogers reassembled the inverted villains so they could form the resistance against the inverted heroes. Even though the Astonishing Avengers failed to stop the inverted X-Men, the appearance of the Axis gave them a second wind to keep on fighting long enough for Doctor Doom, the White Skull (the inverted version of the Red Skull), and the Scarlet Witch (possessed by Daniel Drumm in order to cooperate) to cast a reinversion spell, which turned almost everyone back to normal.; Before the battle, the Astonishing Avengers had decided to record a video sent to the media, in which they blamed the evil actions of the Avengers and the X-Men on themselves, claiming to have manipulated the heroes using the Enchantress' magic, as the "Axis of Evil."

He freed Captain America, and together, they fought the Twins separately. Uriel was killed by Thor, and Eimin was sent off the ship by Cap.; When a portion of the Ark exploded, Thor saw Jarnbjorn floating in space with debris and tried to reach it, but Eimin stood in his way. Even though Thor retrieved the axe from Eimin, and tried to reason with Exitar, she later distracted him long enough for the Celestial Executioner to finally destroy the Earth.; Eimin would later rule Planet X, until Kang and the Chronos Corps helped the remaining members of the Avengers Unity Division travel to the past and overwrite the timeline by preventing the destruction of Earth. Eimin was trapped in temporal stasis by Kang for betraying him.

+Weapons: Sonic rifles and energy guns.
+History:
+===Origins===; The Anti-Symbiote Task Force was a division of the FBI established in the wake of Carnage's attack on Doverton, Colorado. Helmed by Special Agent Claire Dixon, the Anti-Symbiote Task Force was dispatched in order to hunt down Carnage, as well as deal with other symbiote-related threats.; Tracking Carnage's movements for two years, the task force also spent several weeks monitoring the symbiote-augmented antihero Eddie Brock, host of the Toxin symbiote and former host of the Venom symbiote, and succeeded in capturing him while he was acting as a vigilante in Philadelphia. Brock was subsequently injected with heavy doses of Symbiote Inhibitor and forcibly conscripted by the task-force with Claire as his handler, intending to use him as a last-resort weapon against Carnage.; ===Hunt for Carnage===; Upon learning that Grey Ridge Investments had hired Manny Calderon - the sole survivor of Cletus Kasady's first killing spree - as a security consultant due to her military expertise, Agent Dixon arranged with Grey Ridge's managing director Barry Gleason to set a trap to capture or kill Carnage. In addition to the numerous FBI agents assigned to assist her, Agent Dixon also recruited Colonel John Jameson due to his ability to transform into a werewolf-like monster.; The task force's first attempt to capture or kill Carnage ended in failure due to Gleason - who was secretly a member of the Cult of the Darkhold - betraying them. Carnage slaughtered most of the task force's agents before being plunged into the depths of the mine by a cave-in. Gleason escorted Carnage to an ancient temple in the mine's depths, where the Cult of the Darkhold attempted to sacrifice him to revive the eldritch god Chthon. Kasady and his symbiote were augmented by the eldritch tome known as the Darkhold and escaped despite Dixon collapsing the mine.; As a result of the catastrophic failure, Agent Dixon was reprimanded and scapegoated by her superiors, and the task force was officially disbanded. However, Agent Dixon was approached by Victoria Montesi - a high-ranking member of a monster-hunting organization called the Children of Midnight, who offered to hire and privately fund the task force in order to stop Carnage and the Cult of the Darkhold from awakening Chthon. Dixon, Calderon, and Jameson accepted Montesi's proposal; and on Calderon's insistance raided a secret FBI prison compound to recruit Brock and Toxin.; The Anti-Symbiote Task Force tracked Carnage to Jakarta, Indonesia, and discovered he had turned on the Darkhold Cult and hijacked a freighter called the Caspian Sea. Pursuing the ship in a chartered yacht, the task force battled a horde of Human-Symbiote Hybrids created by Carnage's experiments with his augmented powers. While Jameson and Montesi's assistant Yuvraj Singh rigged the ship to explode, Agent Dixon was separated from the group and captured by Carnage, who bonded her to a Darkhold-augmented symbiote spawned from his own. With Agent Dixon - now called Raze - forced to obey Carnage's commands, the task force fell under Montesi's command. Raze and Carnage were presumed deceased when the ship exploded, but the latter was revealed to have survived when the task force came across a South African girl named Jubulile van Scotter - who had also been infected with a Darkhold-augmented offshoot of Carnage's symbiote.; Using Jubulile's new psychic link to Carnage, the Anti-Symbiote Task Force tracked Carnage to the Chthonic Island in the Timor Sea, secretly followed by Raze - who revealed herself to rescue Carnage from the Broodlings of Chthon. Following Carnage and Raze to the Temple of Chthon at the island's core, the task force was unable to stop Carnage from summoning Chthon. Absorbing the Toxin and Raze symbiotes into her own, Jubulile was able to banish Chthon back to K'lay - his extradimensional domain - though the symbiotes seemingly perished as a result. Freed from Carnage's control, Dixon sacrificed herself to protect her team from his wrath, dying in Eddie Brock's arms. With Carnage now in custody, Jubulilie, Manuela, Jameson, and Montesi went their separate ways. Eddie Brock remained the sole active member of the task force, officially joining the FBI and unsuccessfully attempting to recruit new members.; ===Hunting Venom===; As the de-facto leader of the Anti-Symbiote Task Force, Eddie was brought in when a new Venom appeared and began using his former symbiote for evil. Having grown dissatisfied with his fellow agents disparaging and mistrusting him, Eddie defected from the FBI and reclaimed the Venom symbiote, resuming his career as a vigilante.; Claire Dixon was resurrected by the eldritch magic of the Darkhold, returning to the FBI and resuming leadership of the Taskforce; keeping tabs on Eddie Brock following his return to being Venom. When it was discovered that the Venom symbiote was about to reproduce, she recruited the Scorpion to become the newborn symbiote's host due to his prior experience as the Venom symbiote's host and his membership in Norman Osborn's Thunderbolts and Dark Avengers. Dixon assembled a team of agents armed with energy weapons to subdue and capture Venom, ordering them not to kill Eddie out of respect for their brief partnership. When Venom was captured, his symbiote attempted to escape and bond to Dixon, but Eddie was outfitted with a control collar before it could do so. Venom was freed by Spider-Woman, and Dixon was forced to incapacitate the Scorpion to stop him from killing Eddie. Upon being told that the symbiote's spawn was stillborn, Dixon apologized to Eddie for his loss before fainting from a concussion, and after regaining consciousness returned to the FBI.; ===Later Activities===; In the wake of Venom defeating an ancient symbiote-dragon, an extraction team working for the Maker impersonated members of the Anti-Symbiote Task Force in order to acquire a surviving sample of the symbiote-dragon.; Following Carnage being reanimated using the sample of the symbiote-dragon, assuming leadership of a symbiote-worshipping cult, and launching a massive attack with a horde of symbiote-infected minions, the Anti-Symbiote Task Force was dispatched to claim jurisdiction from local authorities and deal with the cleanup; laying claim to the apparent corpse of an ancient crimson symbiote.; In the wake of Knull's invasion of Earth and Carnage's attack on Washington DC, Senator Arthur Krane established a new Symbiote Task Force armed with anti-symbiote weaponry supplied by Alchemax and the Life Foundation.; The anti-symbiote task force appears to have been replaced by the U.S. Government's own special task force, S.C.A.R., which was established since the conclusion of Venom War.

+History:
+After reforming the Masters of Evil with Atlas, Fixer, Klaw, Moonstone, Tiger Shark, and the Wrecking Crew, Baron Helmut Zemo decided to create an even bigger team of villains in order to expand the enterprise of a twisted version of Captain America that had replaced the real one due to the Red Skull's machinations using the sentient Cosmic Cube named Kobik.; As part of Captain America's plan to take over the United States, Baron Zemo had the Army of Evil attack Midtown Manhattan in the name of the countless of villains whose lives had been tampered with by S.H.I.E.L.D. in the super-prison of Pleasant Hill. The real purpose of the attack was to lure out as many of America's superheroes as possible. Baron Zemo subsequently had the Army of Evil teleport away, and used the Darkhold to boost the powers of Blackout to trap half of the island in a dome of Darkforce, isolating heroes on the scene from the rest of the nation. The Army of Evil later fought off any remaining heroes in Washington, D.C. as Hydra moved toward the capital to secure its takeover of the country.; After Hydra took over the United States, Hydra Supreme Steve Rogers decided to place the Army of Evil in stasis, being wary of what they could do if they remained free. Only a few remained free, namely Mister Hyde, Kraven the Hunter, and Blackout (who would later be killed by Maria Hill in order to release the Darkforce dome over Manhattan). When a contingent of American superheroes who opposed Hydra's regime known as the Underground launched a massive offensive against Hydra in Washington DC, Baron Zemo was ordered to awaken the Army of Evil. He was stopped by Black Panther and Winter Soldier before he could accomplish his task. When the Hydra regime ended, the Army of Evil was likely released from stasis and were either forced to disband or were arrested by the authorities.

+History:
+The Asgardians of the Galaxy were a team of Asgardian misfits assembled by Angela, secretly on behalf of Kid Loki. Their objective was to help him retrieve the Naglfar Beacon in anticipation of the War of the Realms waged by Malekith the Accursed. The team consisted of Thunderstrike, Skurge the Executioner, Throg, and Valkyrie and her human host, Annabelle Riggs. The team initially failed their mission, since the space pirate Nebula obtained it before they could.; The Asgardians followed Nebula's trail, fighting soldiers of the Naglfar Armada she summoned on Netredeen and then on Chandilar to test its power. During battle, Kid Loki was exposed as the mastermind behind the formation of the Asgardians of the Galaxy. The Nova Corps intercepted the team on Chandilar and arrested them. Angela let the team remain in captivity until they learned of Nebula's next target, Earth. Nebula abducted Loki to her ship when he teleported to warn Thor. The Asgardians intercepted Nebula's ship, and Loki used an illusion to incapacitate Nebula long enough for Valkyrie to take the Naglfar Beacon from her hands, prompting her to flee. The Asgardians of the Galaxy were joined by Urzuul, a dwarf Nebula had kidnapped to help her find the beacon.; Since Kid Loki had promised Angela to help her find her girlfriend Sera in exchange for joining the Asgardians of the Galaxy, the team visited Ego the Living Planet, and stumbled into the Ravagers, resulting in a brief confrontation until Sera made herself present, revealing she had joined this team during her absence. After helping the Ravagers protect a group of refugees on the run from Chargazel's Raiders, the Asgardians of the Galaxy decided to take the Naglfar Beacon to Asgard in anticipation of the War of the Realm's culmination. Kid Loki vanished after the spell that created him was dismissed by the real Loki.; Once in Asgard, the Asgardians of the Galaxy were alerted by Heimdall of Malekith's assault in Manhattan. Valkyrie died during battle, and the Asgardians of the Galaxy save for Angela and Urzuul joined forces with Clea and Ren Kimura to rescue Annabelle from exile in the fringes of Valhalla. The Asgardians of the Galaxy continued fighting to free Midgard, and confronted the Angels of Heven on Kenya. During this battle, Angela put the Naglfar Beacon to use when she summoned the Naglfar Armada on Heven to draw the Angels away from Earth and into their death, afterwards she destroyed the beacon. The battle was not won without losses, with Skurge fighting until succumbing to injuries and Throg being presumed dead after being flung away from battle and stubmling into a new group of frogs to protect.

+History:
+Prior to the Maestro’s campaign across Battleworld, Asgard and the Nine Realms carried on much as they had across the history of the multiverse. The Realms quarreled, the Asgardians stomped out opponents and insurrections, and the Aesir people lived in the opulent but hard-edged comfort they were known for. Relations with the other peoples of Battleworld were positive, based on long histories of old association and mutual benefit, the names and unity of the old heroes not forgotten even as time marched on. When the Maestro arrived, Asgard's people found themselves unprepared, moreso than any could have fathomed. Though they fought bravely with their well-known tenacity, the Maestro was simply too powerful and his armies too great, and the heroic Asgardians buckled under the weight of his strength.; In a desperate move, Odin did the unthinkable and shattered the Bifrost. With the rainbow bridge destroyed, Maestro and his invading armies were forced back out of Asgard, but the resulting blast was disastrous and seemingly took Odin's life in the process. An unnatural frost spread throughout Asgard afterwards, causing massive shards and crystalline structures of unmelting ice to sprout from deep below the earth. The towering glaciers shattered mountains, tore cities apart, and transformed the land irrevocably, with no end in sight. As the dust settled, panic overcame the varied peoples of the Nine Realms, and wars quickly broke out all across the lands, all previous bonds and allegiances forsaken in the name of raw survival. It would be a year of conflict and strife before a new leader arose, one with the strength and will to tame the new Asgard. That leader would be War Thor.

+History:
+The Army of the Devil was the name given to a horde of a thousand monsters which attacked Baghdad fifteen hundred years in the past. The horde consisted of creatures such as demons, ghuls and cyklops. Tearing through the streets, they sowed chaos and ate people's babies. The monsters ran rampant until a wizard named Red Owl stepped in. He used magic to banish the creatures, binding them to ordinary objects such as a necklace, a bowl, and a doll, and sealed them away in a cave. Jelaous of the attention the wizard had earned from the populance he saved, the caliph betrayed him and ordered his execution, accusing Red Owl of being in league with demons. At the moment of his death, Red Owl sent the cursed artifacts scattering across the Earth in revenge, each ensorcelled with the spirit of a monster. On that day, a family pledged to find the thousand cursed items and seal them away. This duty was passed down through generations, with the latest bearer of such responsibility being Fadi Fadlalah.; As the super hero Amulet, Fadi encountered and banished two monsters on separate occasions while living in Jersey City with the help of local hero Ms. Marvel. After tracking down a cyklops in Red Hook, Brooklyn, Amulet joined forces with Spider-Man to banish it. While making acquaintances with Spider-Man, another creature under the command of a worshipper of Red Owl accidentally abducted the Web-Slinger instead of Amulet. Amulet followed the creature and destroyed the artifact binded to it, banishing it. The cultist announced the return of Red Owl, and set himself ablaze.

Despite their vast power, the Ashen Combine were ultimately defeated and imprisoned within the Impossible City once more. The Masters of Evil planned to use the Combine as a deterrent when they hijacked the Impossible City, but they were defeated before doing so.; After regaining its memories, Camelot deliberately released the Ashen Combine, sans Meridian Diadem, to Battleworld. The Avengers and Twilight Court had opened a portal the Zeroth Cosmos there, so Black Panther could stop the Grail from destroying the multiverse.

+History:
+The Arsenic Candy Gang was an all-female criminal group that first drew the attention of Spider-Man with the robbery of a high-end women's clothing boutique. When the Web-Slinger intervened, he found the gang holding the store owner hostage. During the standoff, the gang members flirted with their captive and claimed that their leader, Priscilla, was infatuated with him. The shop owner rejected these advances throughout the encounter.; After Spider-Man stopped the gang and liberated the owner, the man disclosed the Arsenic Candy Girls' next planned activity; the gang had moved their operations to an abandoned theater where they intended to stange a macabre "fashion show" using the stolen merchandise. Spider-Man tracked them to the theater, disrupted the event, defeated the gang members on-stage, and freed the audience they had taken captive. The hero quickly learned that the gang had targeted a local teddy bear factory. By the time he arrived, the building was already set on fire. He entered the facility, navigated the smoke and flames, and rescued the trapped civilians before the structure collapsed.; The gang's next hesit took place at a museum, where they attempted to steal a valuable collection of wedding rings. Spider-Man apprehended several of the gang members, but the rest fled with the jewelry. In their retreat, they accidentally dropped a clue to their next whereabouts: a formal invitation to Priscilla's wedding. Spider-Man rushed to the church, where he discovered that Priscilla intended to force the boutique owner into marriage, holding him bound and gagged at the altar. Upon Spider-Man's arrival, Priscilla ordered her remaining followers to kill both him and the groom. During the ensuing fight, Spider-Man simultaneously defended himself and protected the hostage. After the gang was defeated, Priscilla tried to confront Spider-Man directly, but she was quickly defeated by the hero.; Priscilla was subsequently arrested, but she was broken out of prison by the Kingpin. She joined a criminal alliance alongside the leaders of the Apocalypse Gang and the Order of the Dragon Tail. Her criminal career ended at the Kingpin's estate, where Spider-Man defeated her for the second and final time.

The Cooperative members wanted to bring the Aldermen down and reclaim the mystical weapons that gave Aldermen their powers. Their ultimate goal however was to use the eight weapons to eradicate the suffering and bring peace to the world by destroying all of humanity, something the older members kept from the little Dot.; After a Monkey killed the Alderman Bonsai Master in Tokyo, the Co-Op was impressed and sought to recruit him into their ranks. With the help of Monkey and his friends Bryce and Haruka, the Co-Op were able to kill the last of the two Aldermen and recover their relics. As they prepared to forge the eight relics into a single one and enact their plan, their true goals were revealed. Monkey refused to follow along and was absorbed into Slyke's mind, and so was Dot. Bryce willingly went inside to rescue his friend, which led to Slyke being killed.; Boone, Amara and Double-Tap were left to execute their final plan on their own. Eunice Jones recruited her assassins to fight them along Bryce and Monkey, who managed to kill Double-Tap in a sniper duel. Bryce managed to get Amara away from the fighting, so Boone was left as the last man standing. The combined efforts of Monkey's friends weakened him, until he was eventually killed with prejudice, ending the Co-Op with him.

When Seeker, bearer of the Space Stone, brought them the to the edge of their universe, they were horrified by what they saw and ran from it. Because they were merged with their Infinity Stones, they retained their powers outside of their reality and began attacking other universes, killing their Stone bearers by the dozens and consuming their Stones to augment their own powers.; Avery Zavala unintentionally led Apeiron to his home Earth-25313. The heroes of that world tried to stop the Apeiron but failed. The best minds created the Infinity Blade - the only weapon that could harm Aperion - but Avery gave into fear and fled into another reality after absorbing every soul in his universe into himself.; The Aperion caught up with Zavala on Earth-616 where they battled the local Infinity Watch. Though only half of them were present, they gained the upper hand, but Zavala used a distraction to wound Star Slayer with the Infinity Blade, and the Aperion retreated.; They returned to find Earth-616 overwritten with Earth-45869 by the Reality Stone and fought the Green Goblin who gained hold of the Infinity Blade. They defeated him and tore away the reality alteration, restoring Earth-616. Phil Coulson convinced the Infinity Watch to share their powers with Zavala, allowing him to wipe out Apeiron single-handedly.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+History:
+In 1959, Nick Fury was tracked down by a General Hill who had sought Fury out on orders from President Eisenhower to gather operatives for a mission called the Avengers Initiative. Fury and Dugan then went to gather their operatives. Their first stop was the island nation of Madripoor where they recruited the feral mutant known as Sabretooth. In Paris, the soldier of fortune known as Dominic Fortune; the Atlantean princess Namora and her boyfriend master hunter Kraven the Hunter from the Emerald Coast of Florida; and immortal monster hunter Bloodstone and Nazi hunter Silver Sable in Boston, Massachusetts.; With his team of Avengers, Fury took the group to Helsingborg, Sweden, where there were reports of a Red Skull impostor who was gathering former Nazis for a new Reich. The group infiltrated the Nazi's stronghold and set it ablaze after discovering the Nazis had created their own Captain America. Fury and his Avengers slew the faux-Captain America and captured the Red Skull recovering his secret weapon.; However before they could get answers out of him, Sabretooth killed the Red Skull impostor as well. After this, Fury disbanded his group, telling them that he would call for them when he needed them again. He then used his government connections to have some of the international charges against his teammates cleared. Turning over the Red Skull's briefcase over to General Hill, Fury learned that it contained a combination of the Super-Soldier Serum that created Captain America and the Infinity Formula to create a more powerful super-soldier.; In autumn of that year, Fury reformed his Avengers for another mission. However after a brief reunion, Bloodstone and Sable took a leave of absence from the group, the Avengers -- and Fury in particular -- were being targeted by escaped Nazis who were being manipulated by occultist Geoffrey Sydenham who used his influence within the United States government to form an agency known only as ICON. The purpose of ICON was to use the occult to summon the Dark Dimension's ruler Dormammu to protect America from Communist elements. After all the attempts on the lives of the Avengers failed, Fury was approached by the mystic Powell McTeague who offered his assistance to the Avengers in cracking the conspiracy.; With information obtained by McTeague, Fury traveled to the nation of Latveria to rendezvous with his old Howler ally Eric Koenig and the Blonde Phantom to learn what he could about the secret organization recruiting former Nazis. He also learned that T'Chaka, future successor to the title of the Black Panther, was also kidnapped from his home by Sydenham, who claimed to be from the US Defense department. While they found Nazi operative Deiter Skul and the remains of the Lord of Death's Hollow Men zombies.; Fury and the Blonde Phantom next traveled to Wakanda to learn more about T'Chaka's kidnapping. There they learned that Skul had fled to the nation of Madripoor and went there aboard one of Howard Stark's specially built ships. Along the way they were attacked by the Ubermadchen but the battle was ended when the other Avengers arrived on the scene and the Ubermadchen were captured. When they learned from the Ubermadchen that Nazi operatives were being summoned by an known force, Fury allowed Sabretooth to kill the women.; Searching their files, they tracked down Fury's old foe the Planner and attacked his estate as well. From him they learned that Skul was returning to Wakanda to launch an attack along, so Fury and his Avengers followed him there. The Avengers clashed with Skul and his minions, Doctorangutan, Count von Blitzkrieg, Vunderknight, the Leopard Woman, and an army of Hollow Men and Kron-bots. Following the defeat of their foes, Fury and the Avengers took their place when Geoffrey Sydenham attempted to teleport the Nazis to Washington D.C. for his spell to contact Dormammu.; There the group stopped more of his Nazi operatives: Baron Blood, Brain Drain, Spider Queen, Geist, and more Hollow Men. The Nazi operatives were either captured and slain along with Sydenham. With the conspiracy taken down, Fury disbanded his Avengers and completed his promise to get them full pardons for their past crimes. Shortly thereafter, Fury learned to his shock and dismay that Sydenham was released even though he committed an act of treason. Fury's friends Dugan and Koenig had managed to rescue T'Chaka, securing peaceful relations between the United States and Wakanda.

Soon after being put into the machine, the Scarlet Witch escaped and set out to find Doom, leaving the Avengers behind. After condensing a portion of Scarlet Witch's powers into the device, Valeria informed the heroes their job was done.; Doom planned to use the Scarlet Witch's powers to right all his wrongs, but with only enough power to correct one sin, he chose to bring back Cassie Lang to life.

+Base of operations: Avengers Tower, Manhattan, New York City
+History:
+After having killed all of the Avengers and enslaving humankind as part of an elavorate plan that started in 2420, Ultron created his own version of the Avengers, composed of Vision, the nanite-controlled Thor, and A.I.s modeled after the fallen heroes.; Several years later, the A.I. Avengers calculated the arrival of the time-displaced Avengers from the past, brought to the future by the broken Time Gem, and managed to pin point the space where they would appear, in order to place an indestructible cage around said location.; As soon as the past Avengers arrived and found themselves captured, the A.I. Avengers knocked down Captain America and Black Widow with sleeping gas, and took them out. Captain America captured his past counterpart, and inserted a bomb in his body to be activated after he traveled again into the future due to the Time Gem's time jumps. Meanwhile, Black Widow talked to her past counterpart. After the bomb was implanted in Captain America, the Time Gem appeared again and took the past Avengers further into the future.; Some time later, the A.I. Avengers saw the reign of their master Ultron threatened by the appearance of different Avengers, each from a distinct time period, brought to the present by Doctor Doom. Captain America, Hawkeye, Spider-Woman, and Vision confronted the past Vision and Iron Man when they performed a frontal assault at the Avengers Tower to get to the main control unit of Ultron's drone factories. Black Widow came face to face with her past counterpart once again, who was this time accompanied by Hulk and Captain America, when they were trying to destroy the maintenance hub of Ultron's bio-slaves. Thor guarded Ultron's throne in Asgardia from the arrival of other two past Thors.; Spider-Woman was blasted away by the past Vision, who proceeded to later take his future counterpart by surprise and phase his brain out of his body, and subsequently destroy it. Captain America and Hawkeye were blasted by Iron Man after Cap's failed attempt to hack into Rhodes' suit, whose armor didn't have external connections yet. Black Widow's head was cut in half by the Hulk, using Cap's shield. Thor was freed from Ultron's programming when the past Thor expulsed the nanites controlling him, and turned against his master.; The ensuing fate of the remaining Avengers after Ultron's defeat, and Doctor Doom's subsequent world takeover and liberation, is unknown.

+Trivia: The Asura perceive themselves as soldiers, while Zadkiel saw only cutthroats and assassins among them.
+History:
+===Antiquity===; When God asked that all first born children of Egypt to be killed, the Asura were dispatched, and were recounted in Exodus: 1-13 as the "Angel of Death". The Void was also presented as having performed the deed.; ===Modern era===; In recent years, it was suspected that the Annunaki Dagon impersonated Yahweh, as El, and was the leader of violent faction of angels, such as the Asura.; To latter effects of the 1990's, the Asura would create the homunculus Stephen Loss as their divine operator to enact as an exorcist and warrior for the Asura against Earth's demons and sinners and claim dominion of the world for the Asura at the beginning of 1900. Dr. Loss would become allied with Ingenuity Lee to form The House of Blue Lights within New York City to devise several occult and mystical items not exempt with the drug Sacrament K, a mind-controlling drug that is made from essence of angels, which would be used to collect and control derelicts of New York on the Asura's behalf. This drug would be used onto the Devil-Hunter Gabriel Rosetti to kill select Satanic cults such as the Ambassat by killing its patrons and burning down their temple. The Asura would personally arrive to set their assassinations against Satanic priest Anton Devine until interventions for his protection would be made by Daimon Hellstrom and religious terrorist Jaine Cutter as the two would battle variant demons and demon-gods in the process.; In Bend Sinister, Utah, the possible Asura Tzadqiel would possess one of three Satanists to the Church of Lucifer to gain their souls in an abandoned cabin which would gain intervention by Daimon Hellstrom as to incite a spell to trap the four essences in the house indefinitely until the angel killed the three and committed suicide in a result of madness.; Gabriel the Devil Hunter would soon target Daimon Hellstrom after infiltrating Jaine Cutter's apartment to steal her Breathing Gun - a mystical gun able to kill demons- then infiltrate Daimon's home at Fire Lake, Massachusetts to injure Daimon's shoulder then damage his trident. Hellstorm would set to retaliate this intrusion by bringing Gabriel Rosetti into his home, which contained spells to prohibit the essences and presence of angels to enter his property as to instill the removal of Sacrament K from Rosetti's body inducing the witch-hunter into a near fatal cripple from drug withdrawal. Infuriated with the threats upon his life, Hellstorm infiltrated the House of Lights to encounter Stephen Loss once more to kill the Devil-Breaker, burn his home with the mystical artifacts within, and disable the prospects of the Asura for the time being.; ====Heaven's on Fire====; When the Black Host of Zadkiel attacked Heaven, the Asura confronted him and asked him to stand down in exchange for an exile into the Ninth Circle of Hell. He refused, and the Asura submerged him for an instant, though he slaughtered them all and went out of the fight mostly unscathed.

+Trivia: Modern-looking humans did not exist 1 million years ago. To fix this, it is revealed in A.X.E.: Eternals Vol 1 1 that a group of humans fell into a chronal rift.; Mephisto was allegedly the Avengers' greatest enemy, and according to him, the team up until its initial disbandment defeated him 312 times. He was also secretly behind many of the Avengers' other foes.; In addition to Mephisto and the Council of Red, the team has also battled the following:; Zgreb the Aspirant (Horde-infected); First Celestial Host; The Avengers lost, but the Celestials spared them because they believed Earth's superhumans may be useful as a "cure" against the Horde.; Shuma-Gorath; Moon Knight and the Cult of Khonshu; Laufey of Jotunheim, Hyve of the Negative Zone, and their children; Many time-travellers from the future:; "Armored despots and futuristic conquerors"; Child Thanos, at least three times; Various iterations of Doctor Doom; The Multiversal Masters of Evil
+History:
+===Origin===; Over 1,000,000 years before the present, the early human mutant known as Firehair became the avatar of the Phoenix Force and nearly razed the planet due to its destructive impulses. Realizing the danger that beings like her posed to the Earth, she began assembling a team of supernatural and mystically-augmented individuals to protect the nascent humanity from both outside threats and itself, recruiting the Asgardian god Odin Borson. Together, Firehair and Odin recruited the demigod sorcerer Agamotto, the Black Panther of the Panther Tribe, the demonically-powered Ghost Rider, the Chi-fighter Iron Fist, and the planetary defense system Starbrand.; ===The Fallen and the First Celestial Host===; When a Celestial called Zgreb the Aspirant came to Earth in search for the Progenitor, it was infected by the Horde and was driven mad. The Avengers were successfully able to subdue it thanks to its weakened state. While Odin wanted to nail the fallen Celestial to the Moon as warning to the others that would come, the team buried the cosmic giant under the plains of what would become the modern-day country of South Africa instead. Soon afterwards, the First Host arrived. The Avengers engaged them in combat but were defeated. Believing that these heroes would be useful against the Horde, the Celestials spared them and left.; Later, Arishem the Judge sent Ajak to make contact with the Avengers, who immediately attacked her as soon as she said the word "Celestials." Ajak was resurrected and told the other Eternals to stand down.; ===Temporal Incursions===; Over the years, the Avengers also fought against numerous time travellers seeking to reshape history to their benefit, such as young Thanos, some Doctor Dooms, and Mephisto. Because of the constant attacks from the future, they were initially hostile towards a time-displaced Tony Stark. Later, they watched as Tony battled Mephisto and used the devil's Time Stone to go back to his own time.; ===Disbandment and the Birth of Thor===; The Black Panther was killed during a battle against the children of Laufey of Jotunheim and Hyve of the Negative Zone. While Phoenix mourned for him, Odin reminded her that the others were just mortals and she should not get attached. He attempted to advance on her only to be rejected as Phoenix was in disbelief of his lack of respect. Phoenix went to the Panther Tribe to offer her condolences and was soon called to Asgard, as were the other members of the team. When they arrived, they saw that Odin had called them for an unannounced wedding between him and Phoenix, and that they were to be wed immediately. Disgusted, Phoenix left Asgard and Earth, intending never to return.; The botched wedding attempt fractured the team and they went their separate ways. Many years later, they gathered once more to witness the birth of Thor, the son of Odin and Gaea. Laufey, seeking revenge for his children's deaths, assassinated the newborn by turning him into ice. Phoenix, who had orchestrated Thor's birth alongside Gaea, came back and brought Thor back to life. Still resentful, Odin told her to leave. Phoenix considered staying to watch the boy grow up but the sound of storms and his cries were too much for her to bear and she once again left for the stars.; ===Avengers Assemble===; The team was eventually reassembled by Agamotto. Although Phoenix remained missing and the Panther Tribe refused Agamotto's call, the team welcomed a newcomer: Moon Knight. The prehistoric Avengers teamed up with the modern Avengers to combat Mephisto's Council of Red and the Multiversal Masters of Evil.; The battle against the Masters of Evil lasted nine days. Doom Supreme managed to kill Starbrand and Ghost Rider, and took out Agamotto's eyes, but the Avengers defeated the other members while Doom Supreme abandoned them.; Doom Supreme went on to attack his true target, the God Quarry, and Avenger Prime summoned the Avengers to help. Firehair returned and defeated Dark Phoenix with Thor, but they also shattered the God Quarry, completing Mephisto's plan. The Avengers dealt with the remaining evil forces before turning their combined attention to the breach. Their attempts at sealing the hole failed because nothing on the Multiverse's side of the hole could seal it; Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes) went to the other side of the hole to seal it from the First Firmament. With the end of the Multiverse averted, Phoenix (Firehair) and Starbrand (Brandy) sacrificed themselves to return all the universes attacked by the Masters of Evil to normal. Returning to their normal time, Agamotto then created his three Eyes of Agamotto.; ===Legacy===; Millennia later, Odin's son Thor would follow in his father's footsteps and become the leader of a new team of Avengers. Centuries after that, the fifth iteration of the Avengers was founded to save the world from Loki - the Asgardian god of mischief - and became one of the world's largest superhero teams.

+History:
+=== All Power to the People ===; When Iron Lad launched the Ultimates 3.0 initiative, Luke Cage started supervising a rehabilitation program aimed at transforming the various prisoners under his command into super heroes, whom he dubbed the Avengers. This program was conceived in response to the riots caused by Cage in the Midas Group's private prison network across the North American Union, which later became self-governing collectives known as the Ultimate Archipelago. Although volunteers were shared, independence was maintained regarding the analogous Project 4, which would evolve over time to become the group of cosmic-empowered teams known as the Fantastic Force.; Trained by Cage, Captain America, and Doom in a wide variety of subjects to maximize their efficiency for the benefit of the movement, most of the volunteers had been imprisoned for going against the status quo. Once training was complete, they were provided with a super-heroic catalyst stolen from H.A.N.D. installations or given superpowers by other means.

+History:
+The Robot Avengers were a group of six unstable androids created by Alkhema in the likeness of several members of the Avengers and one of their enemies. Their designs resembled that of Ultron, while each possessed abilities and personality engrams based on specific individuals.; The team consisted of Robot Vision, Robot Scarlet Witch, Robot Wonder Man, Robot Goliath, Robot Wasp and Robot Grim Reaper. Alkhema created them using brain-pattern recordings originally gathered by Ultron when he had captured the Avengers and their associates, including data from Wonder Man, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Wasp, Goliath (Hank Pym), and Grim Reaper.; Considering them flawed and psychologically unstable, Alkhema chose not to destroy them, instead abandoning them and believing they would eventually self-destruct. The Robot Avengers took refuge in an old underground laboratory and hideout once used by Ultron beneath Manhattan. There, they attempted to emulate the Avengers, but their warped programming caused them to commit violent and destructive acts in the name of heroism.; Their actions drew the attention of the real Avengers, who tracked them to the underground base and confronted them. Initially, the Robot Avengers gained the upper hand in battle. However, the arrival of the true Grim Reaper—angered by the existence of his robotic duplicate—shifted the tide. The Robot Avengers were ultimately defeated and destroyed in a massive self-destruction sequence, possibly triggered either by themselves or by a fail-safe implanted by Alkhema.

+Transportation: Avenjet, Avengers 4x4, Quinjet; formerly S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier
+History:
+===The Initiative===; The Avengers were the brainchild of Director Nicholas Fury from S.H.I.E.L.D., who envisioned a team of heroes that might work together as an emergency response team in the event that a threat would prove so powerful, that no one hero could face it alone. He named his plan the "Avengers Initiative".; The Avengers formed gradually through circumstance and reactive planning. Captain America was considered for the initiative after he was found by S.H.I.E.L.D. in the arctic. Thor was also considered in the initiative due to his confrontation with the Frost Giants. Bruce Baner was also included due to his appearance as Hulk. Fury initially considered Tony Stark for a role on the team, but discarded this idea due to Stark's unpredictable nature. Eventually the plan was scrapped altogether and Fury refocused his attention on military assets in the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D. instead. Circumstance however, proved to be the guiding force that brought the disparate membership of the team together when Loki made a surprise appearance at a S.H.I.E.L.D. research facility, killed a number of soldiers, and escaped with Agent Barton and Professor Selvig under his control, taking the Tesseract with him.; ===Assembling the Avengers===; The threat posed by the Tesseract in the hands of Loki forced Fury to reprise his earlier idea and activate a group of people with incredible capabilities. Fury called the time-displaced World War II hero, Captain America back into service, while Stark and Dr. Bruce Banner were brought in for their scientific expertise. When Loki made a public appearance, Stark (with his Iron Man armor) and Captain America rushed to intercept, accompanied by S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow. The three of them confronted and captured the Asgardian, although in the effort to bring him into custody they were in turn confronted by Loki's adoptive brother, Thor. This resulted in an altercation when Thor extracted Loki, but once the men had wasted time and effort in a fruitless clash of egos, they resumed the trip together.; Once on board the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, the clashes continued, to some extent as a result of Loki's goading. Even though their agendas were largely aligned, their egos and the growing unease surrounding Fury's actions had the group in a frequent state of tension. This persisted until Loki sprang his trap and used a surprise attack from Clinton Barton, still under control, to trigger a new round of falling out within the ranks. The attack left parts of the Helicarrier in ruin, and S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Phil Coulson dead by Loki's hand before Loki himself fled.; His killing of Coulson, proved to be his undoing however, because Director Fury used the incident to motivate the remaining people into action. Captain America and Iron Man wanted justice for Coulson; Barton, who had been pulled from Loki's control, simply wanted to put him down; and Romanoff had her own debts to settle. After chasing Loki to New York City they were soon joined by Thor and Banner, both of whom had fallen from the carrier in the attack. Finally, together as a team, the group calling themselves the Avengers assembled to fight off a threat that was larger than any one of them alone.; ===Battle of New York===; The hunt for Loki became a battle for New York when Loki opened a dimensional rift above the city to a waiting Chitauri invasion forced stationed on the other side. The Chitauri attacked without hesitation, pouring through in a vast horde of ground troops with air support. The Avengers stood fast against the assault, at first confronting the attacking warriors, and then shifting focus to other prominent target objectives. Not only was there Loki and his alien army to contend with, there were also the Chitauri's Leviathans, colossal flying beasts that were as much agents of destruction as they were a mode of transportation. The Avengers were split even further on more fronts dealing with the rift and the technology holding it open, not to mention a nuclear warhead that had also been deployed to the area at the behest of Earth's governments. They ultimately triumphed when Iron Man redirected the missile through the portal and into the ranks of even more invaders waiting beyond. Black Widow subsequently deactivated the portal so that the nuclear explosion was contained in the Chitauri realm, the destruction of their core ship deactivating the cybernetic Chitauri.; In the aftermath of the fight, the Avengers gathered for the departure of Thor, and his now-captive brother, back to Asgard where Loki and the Tesseract would be safely removed from humanity. After the battle, the Avengers became icons in the super hero community. From there, the Avengers would develop various members, allies and enemies.; ===Cosmic Brick Crisis===; Being tasked with protecting Grand Central Station from Sandman and Abomination. Two avengers members, Iron Man and Hulk, arrived on the scene to stop them. The two made their way through the nearby road, with Hulk eventually getting into a fistfight which resulted in Abomination's incapacitation. Entering the bank, the two were able to make their way through Sandman's defenses, causing him to retaliate and attack Stark Tower, suddenly being joined by Spider-Man, the two were able to incapacitate Sandman through Spider-Man's assistance, solidifying him with a combination of water and concrete.; ===Age of Ultron===; ====Sokovian Raid====; After the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D., the Avengers, started tracking down Hydra bases across the world, trying to find Baron Wolfgang von Strucker and Loki's Scepter. After many months they tracked it to a Hydra research facility in Sokovia and launched an all out assault to recover it. The Avengers also noted that they were being harassed by two "enhanced" during the operation, but together with Stark's Iron Legion the team soon overthrew the Hydra soldiers and reclaimed the sceptre. Stark appealed to Thor to have two days to study the alien device before it was relocated to Asgard, which Thor agreed to, and then the team unanimously agreed to celebrate their victory.; ====No Strings On Me====; Back in New York, Stark began to unravel the mysteries of the sceptre. He discovered that its core held something akin to a powerful computer and deduced that Hydra had been trying to use it to create artificial intelligence. With this knowledge he had the epiphany that he might be able to provide real adaptive thought to his Iron Legion in what he called his Ultron Program. He then left J.A.R.V.I.S. to continue investigating while he rejoined his team for a night of celebration.; The party was huge and the Avengers gathered many of their friends for the night. When the revelry had died down, and most of the guests had left, the remaining men took turns trying to lift Mjolnir. This activity was interrupted by the appearance of a wrecked Iron Legion robot. It quickly became apparent that this was being operated by a rogue artificial intelligence, and the name it claimed for itself was Ultron. Ultron, and a number of other Iron Legion robots, then attacked the small group. They rallied and beat it back, but not before one of the Iron Legion made off with the sceptre during the confusion.; ====Anger Management====; The Avengers traced Ultron's movements to a salvage yard on the coast of Africa where Ulysses Klaue dealt in the lucrative end of black market trading. So began a three way battle between Klaue's men (after Ultron assaulted him), the Avengers, and a new generation of drone robots. Ultron also had the advantage of the pair of enhanced that the Avengers had encountered in Sokovia: the siblings Wanda and Pietro Maximoff. Pietro's speed allowed him to devastate the ranks of Klaue's men, while Wanda ravaged the minds of the Avengers themselves. When she at last reached Banner, her illusions caused him to fly into a rage that he then directed towards the populace of Johannesburg, and then she Ultron and Pietro made their escape.; With most of the Avengers out of action fighting their own inner demons, Stark was left to attend to the problem of a rampaging Hulk on his own. He summoned Veronica, a modular system comprised of an orbital drop pod that could deploy numerous pieces of heavy duty Iron Man outer armor. This Hulkbuster Armor afforded him the physical power to subdue the Hulk, but the public relations damage had been done, leaving Banner in a morose state.; Clint Barton took the group to a safehouse to recover, soon revealing that it was actually his family home. There they met Nick Fury, who began reorienting their thinking and fomenting new strategic considerations within the shattered ranks. Tensions ran high between Stark and Rogers, and Thor had been given a glimpse of something very troubling and departed the group to investigate further.; ====Korea Prospects====; Ultron's plan to use the sceptre to create a final evolutionarily pure form for himself had become clear, and the last piece of that puzzle was with Dr. Helen Cho in South Korea. They raced for Seoul, and found Ultron deep into an attempt to load his consciousness into a new android body. Their interference forced Ultron to flee, but the group managed to separate the android body from the robot before he escaped again, and Stark, and Barton, took it back to New York. Rogers on the other hand, found himself joined by the Maximoff twins on the street of Seoul after Wanda had discovered Ultron's true intent. Romanoff had not been so lucky, and having been rendered unconscious in the confrontation soon found herself imprisoned by Ultron in Sokovia.; Once they were back in New York, Stark and Banner bickered over the android body. Stark wanted to load J.A.R.V.I.S. into it, but Banner didn't trust his judgment. The dispute continued until it was interrupted by the arrival of Rogers and the Maximoff twins, whereupon Pietro ended it by simply unplugging the entire system. Then Thor made a surprise appearance and promptly bathed the android in lightning. It awoke in the surge and cast him aside. The Avengers and the Maximoff twins all moved to counter the android but halted when it stopped by a window to gaze out upon the city. It quickly became apparent that the android was no threat, especially fostering trust in Thor when it hefted Mjolnir with ease. The assembled group then compared stories, and Thor reported news of his vision that the energy core of the sceptre had actually contained the Mind Gem, an item of incredible power and one of the legendary Infinity Stones.; ====Rise of Ultron====; The Avengers and their three allies turned their attention back to Ultron and Sokovia. Banner went alone to extract Romanoff from her prison, and the others faced off against Ultron. While Ultron's plan to divide and exterminate the Avengers had failed, its plans for the human race were about to be fully revealed. Devices planted within the city engaged, drawing a sizeable portion of it into the sky. The assembled heroes, with Banner and Romanoff back amongst them, fought back against the amassed ranks of Ultron's robot legion. James Rhodes, suited up as War Machine, and a recently repaired helicarrier with him, also eventually joined the battle. After clearing most of the Ultron robots from the city now risen above the cloud layer, the heroes began evacuating the trapped populace in personnel transports sent from the helicarrier. Barton was caught under the guns of the Avengers' own quinjet however, with Ultron at the controls, and only the intervention of Pietro saved him.; The Vision finally confronted Ultron alone after the Hulk had flung the robot from the quinjet. Heavily damaged, Ultron was no match for the android, and fell to the Vision's power. With Ultron's defeat, the group moved to a new facility in New York, and Steven and Natasha welcomed a new quartet to the fold. They were joined by the Vision, Wanda, War Machine and the Falcon.; ===Masters of Evil===; Having learned of the Masters of Evil's plans as Adhesive X, the Avengers began to act against the villains. First, Iron Man faced the group head-on, only to have his armor destroyed. Thor followed and had a leisurely duel against them, but in the end he was defeated as well. The Masters of Evil's plans would soon be thwarted as the Avengers managed to exchange Adhesive X for solvent.; ===Ultron Return===; The Avengers were preparing a surprise party in the tower for the entrance of a new Avenger. In the middle of the preparation, Tony would be mentally controlled to go to his armors and activate them together with the Iron Legion. However, a S.H.I.E.L.D. code was required. to activate the Iron Legion. Steven meets with the current controlled Tony, and is attacked, and it would soon be revealed that Ultron had returned and was controlling Tony. When Tony escaped the Tower, Natasha managed to place a tracker on him. Following Tony's location, the group discovers that he is in a Stark Industries warehouse. They enter the depot and fight Tony's armor and the various Ultron Drones, however, Tony ran away. After the confrontation, Vision discovers that Darren Cross was in the suit and it was because of him that Tony was controlled by Ultron. Captain America asks Scott Lang (the Ant-Man) for help in dealing with Darren.; Once again following Tony's trail, the team makes their way to Little Sokovia at a base owned by Baron Wolfgang von Strucker. The group attacks the base and discovers that Ultron has been picking up contraband with Hydra, who partnered with Ultron in exchange for running Australia. Thanks to an arrow fired by Hawkeye at Tony as he fled, Scott was able to enter his armor and confront Darren. Following Tony, Steve and Thor reach the Helicarrier and manage to free Ultron's control with Thor's lightning. Thanks to Spider-Man and Iron Spider burying Derren, the Avengers learned that Ultron's plan was to control Tony's new Iron Legion.; Having a great final showdown against Ultron in the Tower, the villain was defeated having his systems cables ripped out by Ant-Man. After that, the party celebrating the entry of the new member into the team takes place, revealing himself to be Falcon.; ===Kang's Invasion===; ====Avenger's World Tour====; To celebrate the victory over Loki, the Avengers throw a party at the mansion where they invite several other members. The party would be interrupted by Nick Fury, who called the Avengers to warn of an attack on a nuclear facility, the location of Attuma forces, and a Raft break.; Captain America, She-Hulk and Thor go to the nuclear facility, where they are met by Presence, who takes control of Steven and several employees there. She-Hulk and Thor manage to free Steven from Presence's control and defeat him. Iron Man and Captain Marvel go to where Attuma is, discovering that he has been dealing arms with Roxxon. Carol and Tony place explosives in the facility where the trafficking was taking place, but Attuma manages to escape and damage Tony's armor. On the Brooklyn Bridge, Ms. Marvel and White Tiger fight against Shocker, Mysterio, Vulture, Kraven and Doctor Octopus until Spider-Man arrives to help them. They defeat four of the villains with Vulture having fled.; After the clashes, Kang the Conqueror arrives in Manhattan to take to Chronopolis, along with whoever was inside her, which included the Avengers. In Chronopolis, the Avengers are forced to ally with the Guardians of the Galaxy to defeat Kang.; ====Exploring Chronopolis====; Two groups are sent to investigate, a group with Groot, Gamora, Peter Quill and Captain America to follow the Black Knight, and another with Spider-Man, Ms. Marvel and She-Hulk to follow the Klaw.; The first group went to Medieval England and discovers that the Black Knight was actually Nathan Garrett disguised with an Enchantress charm. With the help of Doctor Strange and St'vaan, they manage to defeat the villains and free the true Black Knight. After St'vaan explains that there is another portal nearby, the party enters it, ending up in another part of Chronopolis. The second group, on the other hand, went to Wakanda and allied with Black Panther to fight Klaw, who was with Man-Ape. The Klaw manages to escape with Vibranium, but the heroes follow him and end up in Earth-43978.; The two groups meet, and after Spider-Man discovers that Klaw's stolen Vibranium was being smuggled on the Hydra Airship, Captain America sends Black Panter and Peter Quill there and the rest find a way to get back to Manhattan. After the three break in, they are discovered by Arnim Zola, who activates the alarm of the airship. After facing Klaw and winning, several Hydra vibranium troopers grab Klaw and flee with him. Upon seeing Baron Zemo flying a plane outside, Steven and Peter go after him and T'Chala go after Klaw. Flying a plane, Peter and Steven manage to shoot down Zola's plane and defeat him. Thor and Captain Marvel arrive there at Ms. Marvel's call, and they follow the path to a portal along with She-Hulk, which leads to a swamp where the Man-Thing was. The three fight the creature unaware that Kang wanted him out of his way to destroy the Nexus of All Realities and remove Chronopolis' barriers.; ====The Quest for the Nexus Fragments====; In the mansion, the Avengers have their signal interfered by Cosmo, who was trying to communicate with them, but it would be necessary to create a signal beyond Chronopolis to do that. The Guardians of the Galaxy take a power-up and use it to be able to communicate with Cosmo. The team forms a plan to open a portal to Knowhere to access Chronopolis, which requires the Nexus Fragments. Again two groups were separated, one with Spider-Man, She-Hulk and Doctor Strange to go to the Sanctum Sanctorum to get Strange's spell book, and another with Captain America, Captain Marvel and Thor to go to Asgard to ask for help from Heimdall to locate the Fragments with your vision. After facing Surtur and Mordo, the two groups return to the mansion and location of each fragment of the Nexus, with a total of five.; Wasp divided three groups to get them, the first group with Spider-Man, She-Hulk and Ms. Marvel to get the shards on K'un-Lun and Earth-31945, the second with Captain America, Captain Marvel, Thor and Doctor Strange to get the fragments in Lemura and Egypt, and finally the third being the Guardians of the Galaxy in Hala. The three groups manage to collect the shards and team up with the Inhumans and reunite with Hulk on Sakaar. With the fragments, they manage to create a machine to open a portal, however, Kang knew about the heroes' plan, so he managed to hack the machine and make it bring Ego, the planet alive. The heroes manage to stop and bring Knowhere to Chronopolis.; ====Fight Against Kang====; Now with Kang's tower defenses down, the group could invade, if not for the villain's ship, which decimated the Nova corps. Iron Man, Spider-Man and Star Lord invade the ship to bring it down, not expecting that Kang would bring the ship down with them inside and call Korvac to face the three. Luckily they manage to escape. In Nueva York, the Avengers, along with several other heroes, fight Kang's army while Captain America, Doctor Strange, and Captain Marvel invade Kang's tower. However, unknown to them, Star Lord also broke into the tower and accidentally caused the alarm to go off. After many obstacles, they finally reach the room where Kang was, who was waiting for Captain America to fight him, as he was "the worthy enemy" to fight Kang who used a projection to become giant and destroy Nueva York. Using a projection, Steven also becomes giant and manages to defeat the villain, who has now been transformed into a baby by his wife, Ravonna. With Kang's defeat, the heroes throw a celebration party at Kang's tower, and Ravonna says that she will return all worlds to their timelines.; ====Terminatrix====; After everything was restored, Tony, Steve and Carol were approached by Ravonna, now called Terminatrix, along with Cosmo, Man-Thing, an elderly Kang and the Supreme Intelligence, warning them of an incoming threat.; ===Trouble in Wakanda===; The Avengers were eating a BLT at a diner at Star-Lord's suggestion, until Black Panther showed up fighting Thanos, the group helped him defeat the villain. Later, T'Challa asks for their help in defeating Thanos once again in Wakanda. The group was losing the fight because Thanos was using Vibranium to have a lot of power, until Tony and T'Challa went to the mines of Wakanda and used Vibranium to teleport Thanos into the vacuum of space.; ===Climate Conundrum===; With the A.I.M. along with Justin Hammer stealing Tony's climatic machine, the Avengers would try to stop them from stealing the machine. After Hammer discovers that Red Skull was behind it all, he allies with the Avengers to stop the villain's plan: Use Tony's climate machine to take over the world.; The Avengers split into three groups to destroy the weather machine's weather generating towers, the first group having Captain America and War Machine (and Tony called Black Panther to help them), the second group having Iron Man and Detroit Steel, and the third Hulk, Hawkeye and Black Widow.; After all the towers are destroyed, the heroes go to the secret base of A.I.M. where Red Skull intended to use one last turret on the weather machine. Even managing to defeat the villain, he manages to escape and even places a satellite made by A.I.M. to control the weather to destroy Manhattan as the base exploded. Captain America calls Captain Marvel and asks her to destroy the satellite. After the confrontation, the heroes started cleaning up the mess made by the weather machine.; ===Loki Training===; Loki decides to join the Avengers and become a hero, being trained by the group. What the Avengers did not expect is that simultaneously with this, Thanos and his Chitaure army invaded Earth in search of the Infinity Stones, having taken the Helicarrier of SHIELD. The Avengers they were face him, however, they would all be arrested by the Chitauris. After everyone is trapped, Thanos reveals that he was after the Stones that were kept in the vault by Loki. But luckily Loki arrives to help them escape, managing to free them and now helping in the battle against Thanos. The group manages to defeat Thanos (because the Stones that Loki hid were fake), and Loki decides he doesn't want to be a hero anymore and leaves.; ===Time Twisted===; After Scott Lang had his van stolen while buying donuts for the team, the Avengers began trying to locate the van (mainly because it had a quantum field in it). When they manage to locate, they discover that the van was on a strange island. To investigate, Scott Lang goes there and discovers that the island is a Hydra base, and that his van was stolen by Thanos allied with Hydra itself, and to make matters worse, the villain was transferring past villains from the team to the present to defeat the Avengers and dominate the world, and then the universe.; Upon seeing the imminent threat, the group began to prepare to go to the island to end Thanos' plans. Tony gave Natalia Romanoff the Hulkbuster and the Hydra Stomper Armor to Steven, while Tony used a new Hulkbuster. For the battle, the group also asked for help from Wanda Maximoff and Black Panther. Everyone goes to the island and fights the villains, the villains were getting the better of being in greater numbers, until Scott had the idea of shrinking the island with the villains inside.; ===Code Red===; When Hydra attacked New York with their newest equipment, the Avengers faced and successfully defeated them. As a celebration, the group played a game of bowling in the tower, in which Natasha's father, the Red Guardian, participated, which distracted Natasha and made her angry with him. After a while, the group realized that the Red Guardian had disappeared, and thanks to an investigation carried out by Black Panther into the disappearance of the Red Ghost, the Avengers discovered that several individuals with Red in their name had disappeared, which makes them talk with the only one that hasn't disappeared until then: Red She-Hulk, who was in an abandoned old west at his father's request.; Upon arriving at the location, Red She-Hulk had a disagreement with the Hulk, but would soon calm down after talking to Natasha about her parents. However, the conversation would be interrupted by the arrival of the man behind the disappearances, the Collector. The heroes fought against the villain's robots, but were unable to stop him from kidnapping Red She-Hulk. Upon realizing that to discover the Collector's location it was necessary to track Red She-Hulk, the group asked Wolverine for help, as his advanced sense of smell could easily track her. Arriving at Red She-Hulk's location, the group comes across an abandoned gas station, which was the Collector's hideout. Accessing through an accidental secret passage, the Avengers were separated by the Collector's computer, with Iron Man and Black Panther sent to the damaged parts warehouse, Hulk and Wolverine to the animal area, and Black Widow, Steven Rogers, Sam Wilson and Thor to the Collector's room.; Burdened by the Avengers, the Collector decides that he would include them as part of his collection, but before doing so, Natasha manages to trick him, saying that the collection would be incomplete as the Red Guardian would be in two collections, lying that he was an Avenger. This gave time for Iron Man, Black Panther (with armor made from parts from the warehouse), Hulk and Wolverine to arrive and begin a confrontation against the villain. The group manages to free everyone from the red collection and a few more, which made the Collector angry enough to decide to leave the planet with his base (which was actually a ship). Celebrating their victory, the Avengers threw a pancake party in the tower.; ===Mission Demolition===; After defeating the Frightful Four, the Avengers began preparing for Avengers Con. The next day, a machine called Galactus destroyed Avengers Con and trapped all of the group's members there. The person responsible for this was the villain Terrax, who wanted to get the Cosmic Axe that was acquired by Thor in Vanaheim.; With the help of Vision's head, Dennis Dunphy helps save the group, calling for help from other members at Avengers Tower. Although at first this didn't work as everyone was arrested, Dennis managed to destroy Galactus and thus free everyone, and then together they defeated Terrax and destroyed the Cosmic Axe. After reforming Avengers Con, the group announced the addition of its new member: Demolition Man.; ===Strange Tails===; When the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants attacked a museum, the Avengers arrived to try to stop them. At first the group was unable to defeat the villains even with their best efforts, but Hawkeye arrived in time to help in the fight and eventually defeated them. Later, the group would face Attuma, who was trying to destroy the surface kingdom, and again successfully defeated him. However, in the tower, a new villain called Sphinx would attack and mentally control most of the Avengers, with the only ones who managed to escape being Hawkeye, Black Panther and Iron Man.; The three escaped to the Compound, and while Iron Man created a new armor to fight, Black Panther and Hawkeye decided to go ask Doctor Strange for help due to his knowledge of magic. Strange, however, had no idea how to deal with Sphinx's feline magic, so he suggested they ask Tigra for help. She helped them both, giving them knowledge about the Ka Stone and also forming a group called the Catvengers. With everyone together, they broke into Attuma's house and stole his trident, and then went to Egypt to face Sphinx, in which she was trying to awaken Anath-Na Mut. With everyone fighting against the controlled heroes, Hawkeye followed Sphinx to the tomb where Anath-Na Mut was, and despite managing to take away the villain's powers, she managed to awaken the ancient Egyptian. All the heroes, now freed from Sphinx's control, came together to try to stop the new threat, which would ultimately be defeated by Hawkeye who fired Attuma's trident into the core of Anath-Na Mut.

+Trivia: An intro for the Marvel Action Universe depicted Scarlet Witch, Black Panther and Giant-Man as members of the Avengers. Whether or not these characters didn't make appearance as team members.
+History:
+The Avengers were a group of superheroes who seemingly used the Avengers Mansion as their main headquarters. At undetermined points in time, Iron Man, Goliath (formerly Hawkeye) and She-Hulk joined the team. When New York City began to suffer from a powerful earthquake, the Avengers started rescue operations with the New Warriors to save civilians. After Iron Man helped Mister Fantastic save a falling civilian, they noticed a sky fire, later revealed to have been generated by Thor's hammer, Mjolnir, following his defeat at the hands of Ego the Living Planet. When most of the Fantastic Four were packing for a vacation, Mister Fantastic was concerned about leaving the likes of the Avengers and Thor to get irradiated or pulverised instead of them. They later fought against Doctor Doom, potentially at their mansion, after he recently re-obtained the powers of the Silver Surfer. Doom placed a green dome around them, preventing them from continuing their battle. They later witnessed Crystal guide Mister Fantastic's Anti-Cosmic Flying Wing into the Earth's stratosphere, with a pursuing Doom being tricked into activating Galactus' cosmic barrier, defeating him.

+Transportation: Quinjet
+Notes: Steve Rogers thought that Night Thrasher would be a perfect candidate for the Avengers Academy, but didn't expect him to agree on joining to be trained.; Thing was approached to become a substitute teacher at the academy.; Spider-Man convinced Pym to allow him to also be a sub, but after a "practice session," Spidey and the students agreed the school didn't need to be complicated by his "Parker Luck."
+Trivia: Reptil is the only member of the original class of students to not first appear in Avengers Academy Vol 1 1.
+History:
+===Avengers Reformatory===; Following the Skrull Invasion, Norman Osborn took control over the legalized super-hero community, including the Superhuman Registration Act and the Initiative. Secretly, Osborn used his newly acquired resources in the Initiative to locate, torture and experiment on a group of young people with superpowers for his nefarious interests. His reign was eventually overthrown, leading to the Registration Act being revoked and the Initiative being dismantled. Having access to Osborn's files, the Avengers recruited the most volatile and dangerous of his former subjects. Most of them had undergone irreparable physical alterations. In order to subvert the corruption, the Avengers decided to train the teenagers to prevent them from becoming dangerous supervillains as Osborn had intended. As such, the Avengers Academy was inaugurated, in which veteran Avengers taught youngsters the essence of heroism.; In the Infinite Avengers Mansion, the founding Avenger Hank Pym assumed the role of the director of the Academy. Other trainers included former Initiative members Tigra and Justice, as well as the dark and mysterious heroes in search for redemption Speedball and Quicksilver. Among the students were the mystically empowered Reptil, the radioactively toxic Hazmat, the iridescently invulnerable Mettle, the electrifying and frivolous Striker, the humorlessly pragmatic Finesse, and the naïve and ethereal Veil.; The tutors concealed the fact that they wished to prevent the students from going rogue, fearing that the students might have internalized such precaution if they found out. Finesse immediately identified the ruse and convinced Striker and Veil to hack into the Academy's systems to learn the truth. In disappointment, the first class of the Avengers Academy realized they were problematic youths. In one of their field trips, the students were taken to the Raft, a maximum security for super-villains in which Osborn was kept captive. During the visit, Hazmat orchestrated a blackout to hunt Osborn alongside Mettle and Veil. Osborn manipulated them into believing he could restore their damaged health. Several inmates were able to escape their cells due to the intervention, but the Avengers were able to stop a riot. The students who were involved in the killing attempt against Osborn were reprimanded for their actions. Meanwhile, due to his good performance, Reptil became the class leader of the Avengers Academy.; The class was unwittingly exposed to the public when Whirlwind attacked Pym. Striker's mother secretly set up a scheme to photograph the incident and explore the potential of her son becoming a celebrity.; ===Fear Itself===; When the Serpent invaded Midgard, the students of Avengers Academy were deployed to the front lines in Washington, D.C. Later, they found themselves under attack by two of the Worthy. The Infinite Mansion became their battleground and was destroyed.; In the aftermath, Veil left the student body while Justice and Speedball resigned their positions as teachers.; ===Shattered Heroes===; The Academy opened up the student body to a wider crowd. The Academy reopened its doors at the Avengers West Coast former base Avengers Compound. When the school reopened, most of the original students felt they were going to be kicked out, which caused a fight to between the original class and Luke Cage, Captain America, and Hawkeye. The fight ended after Jocasta temporarily stunned everyone and explained what was really going on. The students took a break calm down. Meanwhile, Hawkeye decided to ask Dr. Pym if he could join as a staff member. The original students then met the two new regular students White Tiger and Lightspeed. The meeting was cut short after Quicksilver showed up and told everyone that someone has "murdered" Jocasta. Upon hearing everyone gathered around her destroyed body in shock. While everyone gathered Reptil sent a message to an alternate future where the future versions of the original Avengers Academy class resided. At this point it was revealed that Reptil's body was being possessed by his future self. After Giant Man called the X-Men in hopes of finding out who attacked Jocasta the future Reptil helped Hybrid infiltrate the student body, posing as a mutant boy.; He helped him to make sure the events that creates his future happened. Hybrid fed on the Academy's superhuman minds, but the future Reptil had a change of heart and activated the alarm. Together students and faculty managed to banish Hybrid to another dimension. Jocasta was revealed to be alive. She appeared with Veil to shut down the Academy.; Jocasta began removing her technology from the complex when Quicksilver attacked her. After a brief battle Briggs Chemicals LLC arrived. Giant Man told Jocasta that if she let Juston's Sentinel analyze her, he would let her retire her technology. While Pym searched for the Sentinel's head, Briggs offered the students a place in his company. While many rejected it, Machine Teen and Rocket Racer agreed.; ===Avengers Vs. X-Men===; After the Avengers invaded Utopia and the X-Men escape, they left behind their students. Hercules tried to organize little Olympic games to calm down things between the kids, but it ultimately failed. Then, Sebastian Shaw, former X-Men villain whose memories had been erased, apparently regained his memories and escaped his cell to kill the X-Men's kids. While the faculty battled Shaw, a battle erupted between the numerous students. Shaw made his way to the students and revealed that he came to free them. The faculty let the X-Men go fight in a fake battle except for Loa, who decided to stay.; Five Phoenix empowered X-Men began using their powers for good but slowly became corrupted. Emma Frost started destroying Sentinels and eventually she went to the Academy to destroy Juston's. She offered to spare it if he erased its programming, a request which he refused. After a short battle, Frost destroyed the Sentinel and seemingly obliterated its CPU too before leaving. However, Quicksilver swapped out the Sentinel's real CPU with a duplicate before Frost destroyed it, allowing Juston's Sentinel to be repaired.; The next day Pym and Tigra told the students the school would be temporary closed until the war with the X-Men ended. After a conflict with the members and Briggs' organization, both Jocasta and Veil rejoined the academy. Briggs was killed by Finesse with unconscious X-23's claws. When the school reopened, many of the students graduated and Veil again left the school to return to normal life.; ===Avengers Arena===; The Avengers Academy was one of the many hubs for Arcade's abduction of heroes to fight in his "games." He kidnapped X-23, Hazmat, Reptil, Juston and his Sentinel, and Mettle. The casualties from the school were Mettle, Juston, and Reptil. Following their liberation, Hazmat left to join with other survivors and X-23 left to join the Past X-Men.; ===Infinity and Inhumanity===; The other students participated in a contest of champions with other super powered schools. It was interrupted by Thanos' invasion.; After the liberation of Terrigen Mists to the atmosphere by Black Bolt, Avengers Academy students were seen along Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters students cleaning debris. After Pixie heard about a newly manifested Inhuman, Fiona, who was going to commit suicide, she stopped her. Eventually, Fiona joined the Academy.; ===Closure===; According to Reptil, as of Knull's invasion of Earth, Avengers Academy had been closed down for years.; ===Reopening===; Wiccan and Hulkling went to visit Hulkling's father's grave on an asteroid orbiting Saturn's moon, Titan. They found a shard of the M'kraan Crystal building what seemed to be a school. The heroes of earth recruited a new class and reopened the Avengers Academy therein, headed by Captain Marvel.

+Species / origin: Formed by the Nicky Fury LMD to combat super-powered threats that might endanger the world.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Avengers Mansion, New York City, NY; Formerly:; Avengers Island
+History:
+===Origin===; During the macabre rampage caused by Onslaught in Central Park, some members of the Avengers, alongside other heroes, successfully destroyed the villain by seemingly sacrificing their own lives. Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, the Scarlet Witch, the Vision, the Wasp, Giant-Man, Hawkeye, Crystal, Falcon, Black Panther, Namor, the Fantastic Four, Bruce Banner, and Doctor Doom were among the apparent casualties. In actuality, Franklin Richards, son of Reed and Susan Richards of the Fantastic Four, shunted the saviors off to a pocket dimension with a duplicate of Earth, the "Counter-Earth", where they relived "reborn" lives based on the ones that they had previously lived and populated with alternate versions of these heroes' previous allies and foes.; In the reborn world, the Avengers were conceived by the peace-keeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D. in order to answer threats from a insurgence of super-powered beings on the planet. The initiative was provided with technology from Stark International, then owned by emotionless business man Tony Stark, and based at a complex on the Avengers Island. Director Nick Fury pegged World War II hero Captain America to join the Avengers, providing the team with the inspiration to be a super-heroic group. The operation counted with: the Scarlet Witch, a sorceress from Salem Center accompanied by her mystic tutor Agatha Harkness; the gallant warrior Swordsman; the demonic Hellcat; Hank Pym's android creation the Vision; and the mysterious master archer Hawkeye. As support staff, the group had Dr. Pym, his girlfriend Janet van Dyne, and his robotic lab assistant, the self upgrading Ultron. The Avengers were also under constant monitoring by government liaison Henry Peter Gyrich.; Their gathering attracted the attention of Loki, who had glimpses about their reborn status. The Avengers were contacted by archeologist Donald Blake in Norway, who had found the frozen body of the God of Thunder Thor. The Avengers freed Thor from his icy tomb, prompting Loki to manipulate his recently awakened brother into battling Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Thor remembered Loki deceiving ways, allowing the Scarlet Witch to cast a hex to banish the mischievous god away. Seeing nobility in their ways, Thor joined the Avengers, completing the group.; ===Counter-Earth's Mightiest Heroes===; The Avengers were next stormed by the 31st century time traveler Kang the Conqueror, who captured Earth's Mightiest Heroes as trophies in an act of love to impress Mantis. Thor ultimately freed the other Avengers, who defeated Kang defeat and forced him to retreat. In the aftermath of the battle, the Vision was heavily damaged. The Avengers assisted the Fantastic Four in battling a raging Namor, who had been manipulated by Warlord Krang into attacking the surface world. Captain America convinced Namor top stop his attack due to their partnership during World War II.; During this time, S.H.I.E.L.D. aimed at manhunting the monstrously powerful Hulk. The Hulk was tricked by Loki into attacking Avengers Island, clashing with Avengers. Meanwhile, Pym repaired the Vision and Loki's associate, Enchantress, posed as Agatha Harkness to enthral the Scarlet Witch into falling under her command. The battle with the Hulk fared poorly, ultimately resulting in a clash between the Hulk and Thor. With Thor defeat at the gamma spawned monster's hands, the gamma core in Avengers Island was breached, threatening to destroy the entire eastern United States.; Reverted back to his Bruce Banner identity, the Hulk fled the scene and sought for assistance of his old college friend Reed Richards at the Baxter Building. Tony Stark, now wearing an Iron Man Armor, also intervened, forcing his way past S.H.I.E.L.D.. The Avengers joined the Fantastic Four, Iron Man and Banner to repair the breach, until Banner transformed back into the Hulk once more. Calming the Hulk, the heroes convinced him to repair the damage. With the core secure, the Hulk escaped but left the Avengers Island a ruined mess. The Avengers accepted Iron Man to financially back them and break them free from S.H.I.E.L.D. as an group independent from the government.; ===Age of Loki===; With Avengers Island destroyed, Iron Man had the Avengers move into a new headquarters, the Avengers Mansion. Iron Man was unable to collect the Vision's inert body from S.H.I.E.L.D. while a microscopic Pym in his Ant-Man suit was trapped inside his creation's machine body. Setting up in their new base, the Avengers were attacked by the Lethal Legion led by Enchantress and formed by the brutal Executioner, the deceiving Wonder Man, the renegade Ultron and the traitorous Scarlet Witch among their ranks. The Legion was defeated, but Enchantress the Scarlet Witch managed to escape. The Avengers were then attacked by the Masters of Evil while Loki carried out his schemes by absorbing many super-humans' power signatures through the gamma core.; In the ensuing battle, the Masters of Evil were easily defeated. Thor wished to slay them, but was ordered to stand down by Captain America. No longer tolerating the Avengers passive stance on their foes, Thor departed from the group, prompting Enchantress to manipulate him into joining Loki's cause. Loki also managed to seduce Hellcat into joining him, allowing her to possess the Scarlet Witch, who had actually pretended to join Enchantress under Captain America's orders. After Ant-Man learned Loki had been using the Vision to acquire data, Iron Man rescued him and the volatile Vision from S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier with the help of Van Dyne, now the size-changing Wasp. In the gamma core, the Avengers were met by an alternate Thor from the previous universe, who had a vague recollection of his previous life with the Avengers and was welcomed into the group.; After learning the core had a rip in the fabric of time, the Avengers then returned to their headquarters and were briefed by Fury about Loki's interventions. They were interrupted by Enchantress, the defector Thor, Hellcat and Hawkeye, the latter being brainwashed to betray the Avengers. This proved to be a distraction for Loki to access the gamma core and link his power to it to take over reality. The omnipotent Loki betrayed his allies, who joined forces with the Avengers. Harkness managed to free the Scarlet Witch from Hellcat. Pooling their resources together in stopping Loki, the Avengers were ultimately successful, though at the cost of Thor's doppelgänger's life.; ===Heroes Reunited===; With Earth threatened by Galactus and his Heralds, S.H.I.E.L.D. collected the super-heroes combat the threat. The Avengers joined Namor on Monster Isle to stop Plasma from planting one of Galactus' terraformers, which would allow him to consume the planet. Even with Mole Man's interference, the heroes succeed in defeating Plasma. However, the heroes ultimately failed to stop Galactus' obliteration of Earth. Doctor Doom survived, travelling back in time before the carnage in the hopes of attempting to prevent it one more time.; In a second attempt, Doom preventively alerted S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers, who refused to trust him. The Avengers stroke at the Heralds, counting with the Vision for the mission as Pym had installed him in a new body. The Vision recruited the Hulk for the mission. The Avengers fared badly. The dying Bruce Banner recommended to obliterate the Solar System using the gamma core's rift in order to destroy Galactus. Although the Avengers were successful in eliminating Galactus and the world, Doctor Doom travelled back in time again wishing to try to save Earth again.; In his third attempt, Doctor Doom worked with S.H.I.E.L.D. directly, gathering Iron Man, the Avengers and the Hulkbusters team to battle Galactus. With Mister Fantastic and the Fantastic Four being murdered by the Heralds, Doom and other geniuses worked in an Ultimate Nullifier weapon to use against Galactus, while the heroes were dispatched to confront the Heralds. With the device being ineffective without Mister Fantastic's help, Doctor Doom traveled back in time a third time.; In his final attempt, Doctor Doom approached Bucky, a "chronal anomaly", getting into a clash with her parner, Captain America. Convincing the heroes to stop Galactus, Doom had the combined efforts of both the Avengers and the Hulkbusters, who saved the Fantastic Four from death at the hands of the Heralds of Galactus. Holing up at Avengers Mansion, the gathering of heroes waited on the sidelines as Mister Fantastic, Doctor Doom, Iron Man, Ant-Man and Bruce Banner worked on a new Ultimate Nullifier that would stop Galactus. As Bucky was gravely injured by Galactus, his most loyal Herald, the Silver Surfer, betray his master, sacrificing his life to kill Galactus and save Earth.; Later on, Doctor Doom attempted to create a Negative Zone Portal of his own, merging Counter-Earth with an alternate universe of a distant cosmos. In this merged universe, the heroes of both worlds coexisted. The Avengers and Fantastic Four worked together with the Wild C.A.T.s, Wetworks, and other heroes in turning back an invasion of both the Skrulls and the Daemonites. Ultimately the Negative Zone portal was destroyed by Rick Jones separating the two universes and restoring both worlds. No one had recollection of what transpired.; ===Heroes Return===; Franklin Richards was approached by Ashema, an agent sent by the Celestials, who exposed the truth about Counter-Earth and revealed that the super-heroes had survived. Forced to choose a universe to erase and another to save, Franklin contacted the Fantastic Four for help. Spider-Man and the original Hulk were accidentally transported to Counter-Earth. As the two Hulks fought, the Avengers and the Fantastic Four intervened. During the fight, Mister Fantastic had Iron Man fly into the Negative Zone to confirm Franklin's claims about their fabricated world. The heroes agreed to work with Ashema and Doctor Doom to solve the mystery.; Realizing that the mirrored universe had to cease to exist, the heroes prepared to return to their home reality. Ashema ultimately sacrificed her freedom to save Counter-Earth from destruction. In the end, Doctor Doom attempted to kidnap Franklin Richards to exploit his powers. However, the child was saved by Thor, leaving Doom lost between dimensions. The heroes finally succeeded in breaching the barrier back to their true Earth, having all their past memories restored. The Avengers resumed their former operations.; ===Legacy===; On Counter-Earth, the Avengers left a legacy that brought new champions to defend that world from chaos. Rebel O'Reilly obtained a suit of Iron Man's Armor and joined a rebellion against Master Man's dominance of the west coast. Stark's Iron Man technology was also be co-opted by S.H.I.E.L.D. and used for their Iron Men army.; Swordsman contracted cancer and went insane, becoming the masked mercenary Deadpool. However, before his descent into madness he had encouraged Henry Pym's former janitorm Ernest Sanger, to start a group of goofy heroes to replace those lost. They became the Remnants. Another hero that carried on the Avenger's legacy was Captain America's former partner, Bucky, who assemble a group of young super-powered heroes to form the Young Allies.; Lastly, following the events of M-Day, Onslaught was reborn and sought to terrorize Franklin Richards anew. In order to escape Onslaught, Richards created an exact duplicate of Counter-Earth prior to the heroes departure. On this world, another team of Avengers based on the ones formed on Counter Earth existed.

+In this reality, Ares learned of Osborn's lies well before the Siege of Asgard and attacked him, prompting Norman to have Ares killed at the hands of the Sentry. Not having to expend the massive energy required to kill a god in the middle of battle allowed Sentry to fight in the Siege of Asgard at the peak of his powers. The Dark Avengers slaughtered all heroes and opponents on the field of battle, with the exception of a few, and won the battle. One of the survivors of the Siege, Emma Frost, made an alliance with Doctor Doom and Loki, in an effort to stop Norman Osborn and the Dark Avengers, who were now in the process of seizing control of the USA. They devised a plan to expose all the lies that Norman had told the Sentry, starting with telling him that Norman had ordered the death of his wife Lindy, and that his teammate Bullseye had carried out the murder. This devastating fact led to Bob Reynolds relinquishing all control over his psyche, leaving the Void as the dominant personality. The Void began a rampage, murdering both the heroes who had tried to help him, and his Dark Avengers teammates, before engulfing the entire Earth and spreading beyond to the rest of the Universe.

+When a plague turned the world's population into cannibals, the Avengers Academy student body helped the Avengers hold off the infected. Eventually, Dr. Doom offered them a cure in the form of Doomstones, necklaces that would neutralize the plague. Everyone reluctantly agreed to take his help. Members helped in various non-combative tasks, such as setting up an electrical field to keep infected in. Some even sat in with the rest of the Avengers during a meeting.; In the end, it turned out that Doom had fooled them. The Doomstones actually forced the plague to take over and the Avengers Academy students were among the many that became cannibals as a result. Iron Man had to kill them.

+History:
+==Preface: Heroes Reborn==; Some time ago, the heroes of Earth-616 clashed with the psionic entity known as Onslaught a being spawned from the dark sides of Charles Xavier and Magneto. In the final battle the Avengers and Fantastic Four and many of their allies seemingly sacrificed their lives to destroy Onslaught. In reality they were transported to a pocket dimension with a reproduction of Earth (later dubbed Counter-Earth by Franklin Richards where they were reborn into new lives that were similar to those of their lives on Earth-616. After living in this pocket dimension the heroes were eventually returned to their native Earth.; Following the events of M-Day, Onslaught was resurrected and he immediately sought to get revenge against Franklin Richards attacking him at the Baxter Building home of his family the Fantastic Four. When Onslaught kept on possessing the various members of the Fantastic Four, Franklin sought to escape by creating a new pocket dimension based on the original Counter-Earth to escape in.; This pocket dimension had its own version of the Avengers and Fantastic Four based on the lives the heroes lived when they were reborn on Counter-Earth, however there were many distinct differences. Unlike Counter-Earth, the heroes of this world were not transported from Earth-616 to live out new lives, they were all creations of Franklin Richard's mind. For example, unlike his Counter-Earth counterpart the Thor in this dimension reverts into Donald Blake after being separated from his hammer Mjolnir for sixty seconds. Also unlike Counter-Earth or Earth-616, Hawkeye is not Clint Barton on this world, but the mutant Logan, known in many realities as Wolverine.; ==The End of the Fantastic Four==; The Quiet Man and the Psycho Man opened a portal to the Onslaught Reborn's Counter-Earth. From there came out the Onslaught Reborn Avengers that battled against the Prime Marvel Universe's heroes; that Avengers team was more similar to Heroes Reborn Avengers than the Onslaught version: Clint Barton was Hawkeye, wearing the same suit the 616 Clint wore during Heroes Reborn, Captain America had on his uniform the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s eagle, rather than the classic "A", like in Captain America Vol 2; also, Wonder Man and Scarlet Witch, who were members of the Masters of Evil, were present as Avengers. These evil Avengers were killed in battle, except for Hawkeye (Barton), Hulk, and the two Avengers who were not present in that battle: Hawkeye (Logan) and Ant-Man.

+History:
+After neutralizing many of America's super heroes deemed as threats and driving the remainder underground, Hydra assembled a new team of Avengers to defend the country from severe threats. The team consisted of Taskmaster, Black Ant, Deadpool, the Superior Octopus, the Scarlet Witch (who had been possessed by Chthon), the Vision (who was being controlled by an A.I. virus created by Arnim Zola), and Odinson (who had been promised the chance to save Jane Foster from the alternate dimension she was banished to and help in the restoration of Midgard's connection to Asgard in exchange for his aid). One of their first known tasks was slaying the monster Krigorrath in Denver, Colorado. As well as defending the United States, the Avengers were tasked with defending Hydra assets in foreign territories including a worldwide network of automated signal-boost outposts that maintained the Planetary Defense Shield.; The Avengers aided Hydra in recovering the remnants of the sentient Cosmic Cube Kobik. They took part in an attack on a temple in Atlantis (the remnant there turned out to be a fake) and were led by Hydra Supreme Steve Rogers on a mission to recover a fragment in the Ultronic Territories that they eventually lost to the Underground.; The Avengers were also tasked with preventing the mutant Sunfire from being broken out of jail by his fellow mutants of New Tian and apprehending a team of Inhumans led by ex-S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Quake. Scarlet Witch, Vision, and Odinson were later ordered to attack the Underground's hideout, The Mount, though they were unable to break through its defenses, and Odinson chose to let the Underground escape.; The Avengers started to fall apart when the Underground and its allies mobilized to overthrow Hydra's control of the country by launching an attack on Washington, D.C.. Odinson, Superior Octopus, Scarlet Witch, and Vision were sent to stop the heroes, but Odinson decided to switch sides after growing tired of Hydra's atrocities, Scarlet Witch was freed from Chthon's possession by Doctor Strange, and Vision freed himself of Zola's A.I. virus with help from his daughter Viv. Taskmaster and Black Ant chose to quit working for Hydra after the pair realized that Hydra was going to lose and even freed young heroes being held in Hydra's custody in an attempt to get in their good graces. Deadpool chose to quit Hydra after realizing Hydra was evil.

+Reality: Quarry of Creation
+Base of operations: Avengers Mountain, The God Quarry; Formerly:; Avengers Tower
+History:
+Avenger Prime founded a multiversal Avengers after he fell into the God Quarry. Alongside Avenger Prime's Deathloks, they operated out of an Avengers Tower at the God Quarry to defend the Multiverse.; While monitoring the timestream, Avenger Prime found chronal shockwaves across multiple realities and sent his Deathloks to investigate, but they were slaughtered. Mephisto and the Council of Red sought the power of First Firmament under the God Quarry and organized an elite team called the Multiversal Masters of Evil, led by Doom Supreme, to help them destablize the Multiverse and weaken the barrier at the God Quarry. The surviving Deathloks went to other realities to warn about the coming danger and to recruit members for the multiversal Avengers. Some multiversal Avengers also went on missions, while most of them stayed in Avengers Tower at the God Quarry. Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes) aided in the recruitment process and they gathered several "pillars" such as multiversal counterparts of Black Panther, Captain America, Thor, Captain Marvel, and Iron Man.; Avenger Prime left the Tower to go to Earth-616's prehistory, where the modern Avengers were about to meet their prehistoric counterparts; however, he was ambushed by the Council of Red. The army of Mephistos launched a massive assault on the God Quarry to take it over and dig through the barrier to the First Firmament. With help from the Goddesses of Thunder and Old Man Phoenix, they were able to repel the Mephistos, but Doom Supreme and his own multiversal army of Doctor Dooms launched their own attack on the Quarry with the same goal as the Mephistos. Freed from the Council of Red, Avenger Prime summoned the modern and prehistoric Avengers as reinforcements. While the armies raged, Earth-616's Mephisto absorbed many of his counterparts to become a giant Mephisto and Avenger Prime called for more backup across space and time. Despite this, they were unable to stop the barrier to the First Firmament from being breached.; The assemblage of Avengers dealt with the remaining evil forces and turned their attention to sealing the breach to the First Firmament, as its overwhelming power would destroy the entire Multiverse. Unable to seal it from the God Quarry, Robbie Reyes went inside the First Firmament to seal the hole from the other side. In the aftermath, a Phoenix and Starbrand sacrificed themselves to fix the damaged Earths the Masters of Evil had attacked. Some of the Multiversal Avengers decided to stay with Avenger Prime instead of returning to the original realities, and they continued to operate in the God Quarry in their new base, Avengers Mountain.; }

+The Avengers are a team of heroes who operated out of New York City. When the Hunger began spreading across Manhattan, team members Iron Man, Wasp, Hulk, Captain Marvel, and Deadpool were some of the first infected. Not all of the Avengers were consumed by the virus however, as Captain America, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Ms. Marvel, Thor, Scarlet Witch, and Spider-Man still remained in the land of the living.; When the remaining Avengers initially received reports Zombie Heroes terrorizing New York, they went to investigate but were separated in the process. Upon regrouping, the team helped escort civilians to safety.; There wasn't a moment for them to rest however as Galactus soon arrived to Earth. While Galactus sought to consume the planet, he was unable to do so safety due to the active zombie outbreak. Seeing an opportunity to stop the disease's spread, the Avengers attempted to work with the Devourer of Worlds and his herald, Silver Surfer, to defeat the zombies. Their plans failed however, as the zombies were able to overwhelm and infect both Galactus and the Surfer following a long battle. In turn, the Avengers fought the newly minted zombies and, with some help from Reed Richards' tech, were able to defeat them, saving Earth from further destruction.; Following their battle with Galactus, the team began using Avengers Tower as a safe house for the uninfected. The tower wouldn't remain a safe zone for long however, as the Zombie Heroes were able to successfully disable the tower's defense and infiltrate it in search of comms and tracking tech.; Despite this major set back, the Avengers lived to fight another day and began to try and consider ways to cure the plague. Having learned of plan concocted by Iron Man to stop virus via nanomachines, the Avengers sought out the civilians he entrusted the plans to before he was turned. While the team was able to rescue them and secure the plans, the cure was seemingly ineffective as the zombie plague continued.; With so much going wrong in only 48 hours, the Avengers helped S.H.I.E.L.D. extract as many civilians out of the city as they could. Despite opposition from the Zombie Hulk, the Avengers were successful in their in mission, fleeing the city the once called home alongside S.H.I.E.L.D. and the other surviors.

Travelling to the New Mexico desert to confront him, the team battled the Hulk until the Avengers soon realized that Loki had lied to them. The two parties then teamed up to defeat Loki and the Avengers recruited Hulk onto their team soon after.; After serving with the Avengers for some time, Hulk helped the team battle Onslaught in New York City. While the villain was defeated, Hulk, like many times before, left immense destruction in his wake, even destroying the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier during the battle. This was the final straw for S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury who pressed criminal charges against Bruce Banner for the destruction he caused as Hulk. He was ultimately found guilty and, as punishment, Bruce was forced to teach a class at Lowell Middle School while his Avengers membership was put on probation.; Later, Bruce called on the help the Avengers and had his students teach the team the contents of their standardized math and science exam to help them study.

+First appearance: Paradise X Special Edition Vol 1 1
+Created by: Jim Krueger; Alex Ross
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Following the death of Death, Mar-Vell built a new realm called Paradise, and would charge seven dead heroes into becoming his Avenging Host. Using the High Evolutionary's transmogriphication device to change their dead souls into new forms. They would be responsible to ushering those who admitted they were dead into from the Realm of the Dead to Paradise.
+Reality: Earth-9997
+Base of operations: Paradise
+History:
+===Origins===; After killing Death, Kree hero Mar-Vell created a Paradise for the dead to inhabit. To police this world, and to ferry souls from the Realm of the Dead to inhabit it, Mar-Vell created the Avenging Host, transmogriphying and ascending several heroes who had served him in his quest to destroy Death. He chose Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Henry Pym, Black Bolt, Victor von Doom, the Phoenix Force, and Matthew Murdock to be his defenders.; ===Paradise X===; Each member of the Host would be charged with visiting certain souls to determine if they were ready for Paradise. Those who were ready were transported to Paradise and allowed to ingest a shard of the Cosmic Cube, granting them the ability to create their own ideal afterlife.; After the creation of Paradise Mar-Vell became increasingly reclusive. Phoenix used her psychic rapport with the still living Cyclops to learn of events in the land of the living, where no one, even those suffering from mortal injuries, could die anymore. Phoenix soon began to doubt Mar-Vell's intentions, and her doubts quickly spread to her comrades.; While Phoenix learned more of what was happening on Earth, Captain America struggled with convincing his parents and Frank Castle to abandon the Realm of the Dead. He eventually began considering recruiting his former enemy the Skull, whose powers would allow him to compell the dead to realize their fate and journey to Paradise. This brought him into conflict with Thanos, who distrusted and opposed Mar-Vell. The two joined forces after Kyle Richmond, sharing a portion of Mar-Vell's omniscience, arrived to cast further doubt on the Kree hero's intentions.; After learning that Paradise was situated in the Negative Zone and was seemingly swallowing populated worlds as it grew, and that the "personal paradises" of the dead had begun to spin out of control, the group eventually decided to turn on Mar-Vell. Captain America instead recruited the Skull in order to free the denizens of Paradise from their Cosmic Cube-induced hallucinations. After freeing all of them, they were suddenly summoned by Mar-Vell.; Mar-Vell forced them all to confront their failures before destroying them. Phoenix was at this point the only member of the Avenging Host who had realized their mistake. She understood that Mar-Vell had intended for all of the chaos erupting in Paradise to happen, and that Mar-Vell was the Paradise. Rather than a bid for personal power, Mar-Vell's Paradise was in fact a shield made to protect the universe from the meddling of the Celestials and the Elders of the Universe.; As the Kree launched an invasion of Paradise and Reed Richards arrived seeking the truth behind Mar-Vell's actions, Mar-Vell revived the Avenging Host. He explained the truth to Reed and passed his omniscience to him, before defusing the conflict with the Kree. With Reed now his replacement, Mar-Vell left in search of the first, core reality from which all others had emerged.; Captain America chose to leave the group to return to the Realm of the Dead, in order to spend his afterlife with his deceased family, and the Host would choose Clint Barton as his replacement, due to the bravery he showed in the confrontation with Mar-Vell.

+Trivia: Writer Rick Remender's original pitch for Uncanny Avengers Vol 1 consisted of Captain America, Thor, Wolverine, Scarlet Witch (all four who made it to the team), Psylocke, Fantomex, Storm and Captain Mar-Vell. He also wanted to use Brother Voodoo, but he had been recently killed off at that time.; After the cast was decided, Remender wanted them to wear black and red versions of their outfits, but was declined. Coincidentally, this idea was used in the second volume of Thunderbolts soon after.
+History:
+===Uncanny Avengers, Assemble===; Following the war between the Avengers and the X-Men, Captain America realized that the Avengers had distanced themselves from the mutant population and their issues and struggles. To remedy that, he envisioned a new division of Avengers in hopes of unifying mutants and humans as one. Alongside the God of Thunder Thor he offered Havok a leading position for the squad, as a symbol to represent mutants and carry on the dream of unity Professor Charles Xavier taught his X-Men about. Their first threat came in the form of a brainwashed Avalanche, who was sent by a revived Red Skull in order to create chaos and increase the fear against mutants. The Avengers managed to save innocent citizens from Avalanche, who ultimately terminated himself at the scene when the fight was over. Wolverine arrived to the scene, informing that Avalanche had reformed himself and that they should investigate his motivations. He was also astonished by the positive impact of Havok's actions for the perspective on mutants as an Avenger.; However, the Red Skull had procured the telepathic powers of Xavier's brain after desecrating his remains. He psychically broadcast hate to provoke the population into assaulting mutants. Moreover, he had his S-Men kidnap the Scarlet Witch to weaponize her against mutants. At his School for Gifted Humans, the captured X-Man Rogue rebelled against his plans. However, the Red Skull psychically subdued both of them, forcing them to accompany him and his S-Men in their public introduction as mutant haters. The new group of Avengers opposed the villains, being joined by the Scarlet Witch and Rogue. Unfortunately, their main opponent came to be the powerful Thor, who succumbed to Red Skull's influence. By uniting their forces, the Avengers overpowered Thor and forced the Red Skull to retreat, putting an end to the villain's dreadful plans of racial extermination.; The Avengers Unity Division settled base at the Avengers Mansion. They were joined by the original Avenger Wasp, who bankrolled and promoted the new operation, and the pacifist Wonder Man. In addition to these Avengers, Wolverine recruited the Japanese hero and atomic samurai Sunfire to round up the group. In their first press conference for introduction to the world, the group was catastrophically interrupted by Wonder Man's insane brother, the Grim Reaper. Rogue brutally intercepted the villain, accidentally killing him in public. The incident damaged the fledgling team's reputation and raised tensions between the outcast Rogue and other team members.; ===Avenge the Earth===; Captain America was contacted by S.W.O.R.D. commander Abigail Brand about the murder of a Celestial at the hands of Apocalypse's Clan Akkaba. The aggressors were revealed to be the Apocalypse Twins Eimin and Uriel, dark children of Archangel who had been raised in a hell caused by Kang the Conqueror. Thor identified the Twins used Jarnbjorn, a magical axe he had wielded with the ability to destroy Celestial technology. This prompted the God of Thunder to march to battle with Sunfire as the Apocalypse Twins directed their Ship against S.W.O.R.D.'s space station, the Peak VII. Wolverine had privileged information about Clan Akkaba due to his actions as part of the secret killer squad X-Force. This raised suspicions amongst the Avengers.; The Apocalypse Twins evaded being captured at the Akkaba Metropolis by choosing to detonate it, but not before revealing Wolverine's association with secret murder. Meanwhile, Captain America was informed by Immortus of the Apocalypse Twins' plans of obliterating Earth itself to recreate the planet in their dark image. Moreover, they were able to activate a Tachyon Dam in that timeline which prevented interlopers from other moments from physically travelling to it. Upon his return, the Avengers were conflicted over X-Force's past actions. Wolverine, Rogue, Sunfire and Thor chose to assassinate the villains as a solution, while Captain America, the Scarlet Witch, the Wasp and Wonder Man opposed to their ways, with Havok being unable to unite his team. Separated, the Avengers were targeted by Akkaba's Horsemen of Death, revived friends and enemies who served the Apocalypse Twins, namely the Grim Reaper, Banshee, the powerful Sentry and the son of Wolverine Daken.; After being abducted by the Apocalypse Twins to the Akkaba Nebula, the Scarlet Witch was exposed to their cruel future, which was a consequence of the Red Skull triumphing over mutants. Their plan was to build a new world after extinguishing Earth. After revealing their intentions to the world, they attempted to convince the Scarlet Witch to cast a spell to transport all mutants of the world to the new planet, something she complied to in order to combat the Red Skull. However, she secretly planned to assemble mutants as a force against the Apocalypse Twins to prevent their actions. While struggling against the Horsemen of Death, the Avengers were not made aware of her real intentions, which caused Wolverine to ask Rogue to finish her to protect the world. Using lethal force, Rogue slayed the Scarlet Witch, but not before she performed the spell by exhausting Wonder Man's life force to accomplish it. Rogue was subsequently murdered by the Grim Reaper. Mutants were transported away from Earth as the Avengers Unity Division failed in staying united.; Earth was revealed to be doomed at the hands of the Celestial Exitar, who arrived in retaliation for the death of the Celestial killed by Akkaba. The non-mutant Avengers Captain America, Thor and the Wasp tried their best to resist with little success. Thor executed Uriel in an attempt to recollect Jarbjorn and stop Exitar, while Captain America and the Wasp made an attempt to ruin the Tachyon Dam. They failed. Captain America was killed by the Grim Reaper and Earth was crushed by Exitar. Thor retreated to Realm and the Wasp was the only surviving human in the ruins of Earth.; Eimin created a mutant utopia in Planet X ruled by the X-Council. The population of this new world was not aware that she had been responsible for Earth's destruction. The Wasp, Havok and Beast were the only surviving free Avengers who could avenge Earth. At the cost of the Wasp's freedom, they overcame Magneto's X-Force to destroy the Tachyon Dam. This allowed Thor, Kang the Conqueror and his Chrono Corps to access Planet X to stop Eimin. Their objective was to rescue Wolverine and Sunfire from Eimin, but they were tricked by the X-Council, who sent a brainwashed Wasp to contact them. This sparked a fight between the Avengers and Eimin's forces. With Eimin subdued by Kang, the X-Council realized their society might have hidden dark secrets and decided to help the Avengers and the Chrono Corps. In the end, Magistrate Braddock sent the consciousnesses of the Avengers Havok, Wasp, Thor, Wolverine and Sunfire back in time, before the Apocalypse Twins could accomplish their goals. As a result, the dire reality where Eimin ruled mutantkind eroded.; Upon arriving, the Avengers informed the Scarlet Witch and Wonder Man about the flaws in her plan. In a different turn of events, the Avengers escaped the Apocalypse Twins and chose union over segregation. Empowered by Wonder Man's energies, Rogue absorbed the essences of several heroes to prevent Exitar from destroying the planet. Following her actions, Thor slayed the Celestial with the retrieved Jarnbjorn. In an apparent success, the Avengers also deactivated the Tachyon Dam. However, this allowed Kang to arrive and siphon Exitar's power, gaining divine power. Unexpectedly, the Avengers had help in the form of Immortus' Infinity Watch against the omnipotent Kang. Havok and Sunfire confronted and ultimately defeat Kang, who was forced to flee along with his soldiers. Earth was saved. However, tragic consequences came with their victory. Rogue realized she had once again lost control over her absorbing powers with Wonder Man's consciousness trapped in her mind. Sunfire lost his physical body during the celestial fight and his nuclear energies permanently disfigured Havok. Additionally, Kang had hold of Havok's and Wasp's daughter Katie, who was born in the future Planet X. With his betrayal, she was forever lost to them.; ===AXIS===; Captain America and Wolverine were profoundly incapacitated after this adventure. Having lost his Super-Soldier Serum in combat, Steve Rogers aged drastically and retired from his position as Captain America, relinquishing it to Sam Wilson, and Wolverine's healing factor was neutered, making him susceptible to being killed. With the Avengers Unity Division debilitated, the Red Skull made his move against mutantkind. He established mutant concentration camps in the ruins of Genosha, with Ahab's help. He commissioned his S-Men to abduct his prime prisoners, Magneto, Havok, Rogue, and the Scarlet Witch. They managed to break free and joined forces to confront the Red Skull and his S-Men. Enraged by the vile actions against mutants, Magneto killed Red Skull's disciples and brutally chose to murder the villain as well. His decision was a disappointment to the Avengers. However, through his execution, the Red Skull ascended as the psychic creature Red Onslaught. As the imprisoned members of the Unity Division and Magneto tried to resist the Red Onslaught's torment, they were joined by another prisoners, including the leader of the outlaw X-Men, Cyclops.; Through telepathic suggestions, Red Onslaught scattered hate all over the globe. The other Avengers identified the psychic attack and prepared to counter it, arriving in Genosha alongside the X-Men, as well as allies of both teams. However, Red Onslaught was prepared, and unleashed his Stark Sentinels, anti-mutant robotic monstrosities that had been designed using Iron Man's knowledge. The heroes were overwhelmed by the Stark Sentinels' might, leading Magneto to assemble a group of super-villains to assist in the fight. The reinforcements turned the tides of the battle, and the Scarlet Witch, alongside Doctor Doom, cast a spell to invert the moral axis of Red Onslaught in order to awaken Xavier's consciousness. The inversion spell was a success, and the Red Skull was knocked unconscious reversed from his Onslaught form. However, the scope of the spell affected all individuals in Genosha. Unaware of their inverted condition, Avengers and X-Men soon saw themselves in a feud with each other. The Avengers decided take the Red Skull prisoner in the Stark Tower, much to Havok's and the X-Men's dissatisfaction. This caused Havok, Rogue and Sunfire to resign from Unity Division and side with the X-Men, now guided by Apocalypse. Dismantled from within, the Unity Division was no more.; Succumbed to the inversion's effects, the new Captain America, Sam Wilson, assembled a new team of Avengers to destroy Apocalypse and the X-Men, who in turn promoted plans of mutant supremacy, which included conquering Manhattan. Steve Rogers and Magneto formed a resistance to combat both the supremacist X-Men and the immoral Avengers, counting mainly with the assistance of the inverted super-villains. As Apocalypse designed a genetic bomb to terminate all non-mutants in Manhattan, he and the X-Men were directly opposed by Magneto and the other super-villains. The detonation was stopped by Carnage. In an attempt to revert the inversion spell, Doctor Doom resurrected the supernatural Doctor Voodoo to subdue the Scarlet Witch. In the end, the spell was performed, returning most to their usual selves, except for Iron Man, Havok, and the formerly vicious Sabretooth. The evil version of Havok vanished with the Wasp as his hostage. In the wake of the tragedy, the Unity Squad was rebranded with Rogue and the Scarlet Witch, in addition to Sam Wilson, the new Captain America, the hougan Doctor Voodoo, the Scarlet Witch's speedster twin Quicksilver, the synthezoid and renowned Avenger Vision, and the inverted Sabretooth, who wished to honor Wolverine's memory in the team.; ===Counter-Evolutionary===; Under Rogue's leadership, the Unity Division searched for the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, who hunted the High Evolutionary down. At Mount Wundagore, Doctor Voodoo mystically transported the team to the Counter-Earth, but the members of the Unity Division were scattered across the planet: Doctor Voodoo appeared in a destroyed city inhabited by the souls of those killed in the High Evolutionary's search for genetic perfection, Vision found himself in a technological city where he met an android named Eve, Rogue was found and experimented on by the Master Scientist, who expunged Wonder Man's mind from hers, Captain America was trapped and assimilated by tree-like creatures, and Sabretooth appeared in one of the Counter-Earth's main cities where he was quickly taken down by the New Men and later brainwashed to serve the Evolutionary. Meanwhile, the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were rescued by the renegade Low Evolutionary and brought to Lowtown, a refuge for a resistance against the High Evolutionary composed of his rejects.; Having joined the Low Evolutionary to take down the High Evolutionary, the twins were attacked by Luminous, one of the High Evolutionary's creations with a mastery over the twins' powers. After escaping the Evolutionary's clutches, the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver found Rogue and joined the fight to defend Lowtown from the High Evolutionary. During the battle, Sabretooth broke free from the Evolutionary's control. Captain America appeared on the scene as well, since the tree-like creatures had been summoned to battle, but overcame his transformation and fought for Lowtown. The Vision ultimately saved the Scarlet Witch from Luminous after having abandoned Eve. In the end, the High Evolutionary was heavily damaged after Doctor Voodoo attacked him by unleashing the souls of those he had exterminated. Quicksilver delivered the final beating to the High Evolutionary and forced him to flee through a portal along with Luminous. Once the dust settled, the Avengers Unity Division returned to Earth to heal their wounds.; ===Inhumanity===; Mutantkind faced a new crisis as the Terrigen Mists, the catalyst for the Inhuman genome, were released on the atmosphere and revealed to be extremely toxic to them. This placed mutants, especially the X-Men, in an uneasy position in relation to the Inhuman Royal Family. The Unity Division was rebuilt by Steve Rogers with the goal of not only unifying humankind and mutantkind but Inhumans as well. Rogue remained to represent the mutants and resumed her role as field leader. Doctor Voodoo and Quicksilver also remained with the team. Inhuman ally Human Torch and new Inhuman Synapse joined to represent the Inhumans. The amazing Spider-Man joined the team as well. Lastly, the mercenary with a mouth Deadpool was personally invited to join the Avengers by Steve Rogers after assisting in Rogue's anti-Terrigen treatment. The now popular Deadpool became responsible for funding the group, who were now based at his headquarters in Schaefer Theater.; For months, the Unity Division operated to promote peace between humans, mutants and Inhumans. Eventually, the vindictive Super-Adaptoid targeted the Avengers Unity Division. It was overwhelmed by Deadpool's reckless tactics, prompting Spider-Man to leave the team, which escalated the dysfunctionality within the team. Amidst their interpersonal turmoil, the city of Boston was overtaken by a plant infestation caused by the insane Inhuman environmentalist known as the Shredded Man. The Avengers were unable to stop the threat, which led the time-traveling soldier Cable to join their war. The Shredded Man was able to incapacitate most Avengers, except Synapse, who was protected due to being an Inhuman and, as revealed, the villain's granddaughter. With help from researchers from M.I.T., the Human Torch was able no neutralize the plant infection. Ultimately, by making Synapse vulnerable to the infection, Cable was able to force the Shredded Man to retreat. After the battle, Steve Rogers invited Cable to the team and shared their objective of retrieving Xavier's brain from the Red Skull's possession.; In between their main missions, the team confronted a corrupted Black Knight. They also hunted down the Squadron Supreme after the extra-dimensional heroes murdered Namor, but the Squadron escaped justice to Weirdworld. Although they took no part in it, the Unity Squad also kept close tabs on the mutant Apocalypse Wars after Magneto's X-Men destroyed Genosha.; With no success, the Avengers investigated the Red Skull's actions in Bagalia, unaware that their enemy had been aware of their missions. Having hidden himself within the Avengers Mansion, which had been transformed into a theme hotel, the Red Skull was able to secretly subdue Quicksilver using telepathy after he and Deadpool battled Wrecker in the location. The Wrecker escaped imprisonment, being targeted by the Avengers again. In this confrontation they learned that the villain had been subjected to invasive mental conditioning in the bizarre community of Pleasant Hill, a prison designed by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s director Maria Hill using a sentient Cosmic Cube. When investigating, the Avengers succumbed to Pleasant Hill's fabricated reality. Rogue overcame the illusion and searched for her teammates to help them break free. The Avengers assembled to oppose the rebellious inmates in Pleasant Hill and secure the Cosmic Cube. After being restored to their former selves, they assisted Steve Rogers finish Pleasant Hill. A culmination of this adventure was the return of Steve Rogers to his vigor and to his position as Captain America. However, the process in fact rewrote Rogers as an alternate version of himself who was secretly loyal to Hydra.; Rogue intercepted a spacecraft that had fallen on Earth only to find it occupied by Hank Pym, who had been bizarrely merged with the evil artificial intelligence and nemesis to the Avengers Ultron. Pym claimed to be in charge, but raised suspicions from the Avengers. The Wasp returned to the team to evaluate her ex-husband's return and she concluded that Ultron had totally replaced Pym's human consciousness. The Avengers assembled to oppose Ultron, who revealed his true self upon confrontation. Following a struggling battle, which had help from other former Avengers, Ultron was tricked by the Unity Squad and trapped in the core of the sun. In grief, the team was able to return to Earth.; ===Hydra Empire===; During the second superhuman Civil War, Cable enlisted the help of mutant villains Sebastian Shaw and Toad to break into a military facility in the search for resources to develop an antidote against the Terrigen Mist poisoning that affected millions of mutants. The illegitimacy of this action combined with the involvement of other Unity Squad members like Rogue and Deadpool prompted Captain America to dissolve the team, deeming it a failure.; Most of the members of the defunct Unity Division, some of whom didn't even know the team had officially disbanded, traveled to Japan in order to prevent the Hand from resurrecting the corpse of the recently-deceased Bruce Banner. Even with the help of former Hand leader Elektra, the heroes failed to stop the resurrection ritual, and witnessed as a mindless, rage-fueled Hulk went on a rampage in Tokyo.; After the undead Hulk was successfully stopped and Banner's spirit freed from The Hand's corrupt magics, the rest of Unity Squad agreed to continue working together without Steve Rogers. The Red Skull eventually made his move against the Avengers Unity Squad, activating a psychic trigger he had implanted on Quicksilver's mind to take control over it and force him to capture his teammates so he could take control of their minds. Deadpool was able to resist the Red Skull's control while Cable avoided having his mind taken over by erasing his own consciousness, rendering him comatose for the rest of the situation. The Red Skull had the Unity Division attack New York City, but his plan fell through when Deadpool placed one of Magneto's helmet on Rogue, freeing her from the Skull's control and allowing her to knock him out.; After Charles Xavier's brains were removed from the Skull's brain by Beast, Rogue and Human Torch destroyed them to prevent further misuse of Xavier's psychic powers. Psynapse helped Cable come out of his coma, but he chose to not rejoin the Unity Division. Deadpool did as well.; As part of a Hydra scheme orchestrated by an alternate reality Steven Rogers to take over the United States of America, a contingent of villains attacked Manhattan to lure out as many of America’s superheroes as possible. The Unity Avengers answered the call and joined many other heroes in fighting the villains. Then the villains were teleported away while Baron Zemo used the Darkhold to boost the powers of the villain Blackout to trap half of Manhattan and the heroes, including the Unity Division, there in an impenetrable Darkforce dome.; Only Quicksilver was able to escape being trapped behind the dome, and joined the Underground to resist Hydra after it had taken over the United States. The rest of the Unity Division remained trapped behind the Darkforce dome and had to contend with evil creatures from the Darkforce dimension, Shocker, and Scorpia as well as a demon-possessed Doctor Voodoo.; After the Darkforce dome over Manhattan was lifted following the death of Blackout, the Unity Division joined the Underground and other heroes in ending the Hydra regime and were successful.; ===No Surrender===; Following a fight with the villain Graviton that destroyed much of Avengers Mansion, Scarlet Witch rejoined the Unity Division despite some initial reluctance from Rogue. When Quicksilver's recklessness nearly got Synapse killed in a battle against Juggernaut, he was thrown off the team until he learned from his mistakes.; After aiding the U.S.Avengers and the main Avengers team in solving a global crisis caused by the Grandmaster and the Challenger turning the Earth into a game board for their cosmic game, the Unity Division chose to disband.; ===Fall of X===; Following Orchis' devastating attack on the third Hellfire Gala, Steve Rogers elected to reform the team in order to aid the mutants who'd survived the massacre. As a show of good faith, Rogers' new lineup predominantly composed of mutants rather than humans. Rogers, accompanied by Deadpool and new recruit Psylocke, attended a strategy meeting with Emma Frost and her rebel team of X-Men in the Alley. Deadpool joined the team in order to make up for the mistakenly following Supreme Hydra during the Hydra takeover of Earth and Quicksilver joined to calm the guilt of not meeting with Magneto following the revelation of his parentage. Psylocke and M were hesitant in joining but changed their mind upon learning Steve's resolve, though mentally noted if the team went soft, they would leave. The new Avengers Unity Division would face off against the alternate-reality Steve Rogers, who had joined Orchis and wore the mantle of Captain Krakoa (a costume once worn by Scott Summers of the X-Men) to perpetrate false flag terrorist attacks to further sully the X-Men's name. Leading a new iteration of the Mutant Liberation Front, Captain Krakoa would nearly succeed in detonating a nuclear weapon at Empire State University, but would ultimately be defeated. Blob would defect from the MLF and join the Avengers Unity Division after finding out Captain Krakoa was not Scott Summers.; Most of the team would later join the X-Men, participating on their final assault on Orchis' forces.; As Rogue and Psylocke would later leave the group for new incarnations of the X-Men, and Captain America would go on to establish the Avengers Emergency Response Squad, it is likely that the team was disbanded.

+History:
+The Avengers of the Supernatural were a group of supernatural heroes chosen by Mojo for his newest reality show. They were mind-controlled into abducting the Avengers Unity Division from the Avengers Mansion.; Once in Mojoworld, both teams were made to take part in a reality show called "Martian Transylvania Super Hero Mutant Monster Hunter High School," in which the mutants of the Unity Division were goth outcasts, the rest were football stars and cheerleaders, and the Avengers of the Supernatural were the geeks of the High School. As part of the show, the Scarlet Witch told Johnny Blaze she was pregnant, but the Spirit of Vengeance wasn't under the influence of Mojo, for which it believed it would really have an offspring. Blaze was possessed by the spirit, and as he went "too far out of character," Mojo's influence over the other heroes was broken too.; The Ghost Rider started rampaging through Mojoworld looking for sinner souls to punish, and the Avengers attempted to let him do it, until Mojo convinced them to save Mojoworld, as there were numerous innocent lives. From a skyscraper, the Ghost Rider begun submitting the inhabitants of Mojoworld to his Penace Stare.; Both Avengers team fought Ghost Rider in order to distract him, and let Satana pry the Spirit of Vengeance from Blaze and temper it. Satana failed to attack Ghost Rider, but Rogue managed to sneak up on him and touch him to absorb his powers. This way, she became the new Ghost Rider and tempered the Spirit of Vengeance, but as it begun taking control over her, Blaze reabsorbed the spirit into him, becoming the Ghost Rider once more.; Having saved Mojoworld and having controlled the Spirit of Vengeance, the Avengers of the Supernatural and the Unity Divison returned to their universe, where they quickly started a pool party.

+Base of operations: Formerly Avengers Mansion, New York City, New York
+History:
+The story of this Avengers Unity Division followed the same path of its Earth-616 counterpart up until the Scarlet Witch and Wonder Man were abducted by the Apocalypse Twins.; The mutant members of the Unity Division and the non-mutant members separately got to the Apocalypse Ark, where the Twins planned to make the Scarlet Witch cast a spell to bring all of mutantkind to their Ark, while the Earth was left too die at the hands of Exitar the Executioner.; Even though the Scarlet Witch and Wonder Man planned to cast the spell, but bring the mutants to fight the Twins, Wanda was killed by Rogue with the help of Sunfire. Rogue soon after died at the hands of one of the Twin's Horsemen of Death, the Grim Reaper. With her last breath, Wanda finished the spell, and every mutant was brought in a dormant state to the Twin's pods in the Ark, including Havok, Wolverine and Sunfire.; After Thor and Wasp learned from Uatu the Watcher that the arrival of Exitar was caused by the Apocalypse Twins with the use of Jarnbjorn, he tried to reclaim said weapon from them, while Wasp attempted to destroy the Tachyon Dam, a device which prevented any time-travel, so the Avengers could get help from Immortus. At the same time, Captain America tried to fight the Twins, but he was defeated and captured.; Thor confronted the Twins and freed Cap. Both Avengers fought each Twin. Thor killed Uriel, and Steve temporarily defeated Eimin.; Cap then traveled to the room with the Tachyon Dam, and tried to help Wasp destroy it, but he was killed by the Grim Reaper. As Thor reclaimed Jarnbjorn, Eimin distracted him long enough to prevent him from stopping Exitar, thus, Thor failed to save the Earth and was forced to open a portal to Asgard to prevent from being killed by the fragments of the exploding planet.; Over the years, the mutants relocated on Planet X, ruled by Eimin, who managed to convince everyone the Avengers were the ones who had doomed the Earth. Wasp, the last human, and Havok were fugitives on Planet X, and finally managed to destroy the Tachyon Dam, allowing Kang and the Chronos Corps, a team Thor was now part of, to arrive.; After rescuing Sunfire and Wolverine, who were being held prisoners and tortured for having tried to stop the Twins, the former remaining members of the Avengers Unity Division had their consciousness brought back in time by the Chronos Corps to prevent Earth from being destroyed.

However, they failed as soon as Doctor Doom, Magneto, and Doctor Voodoo arrived to help cast a reinversion spell, which successfully reverted almost everybody back to normal.; In the wake of this crisis, the heroes captured by the Axis were also freed.

Victor died in the initial assault, and Doombot sacrificed himself by activating the Black Hole in his chest plate. Unfortunately, Dimitrios was successful in riding Galactus severed head into the Golden Knot along with Captain Alexis, who had been pulled in while attempting to prevent Dimitrios' entrance.

+History:
+Inspired by the impromptu Avengers team he formed with Hercules, Kate Bishop, Quicksilver, and Hazmat during the Blood Hunt, Captain America formed the Avengers Emergency Response Squad to swiftly deal with the increasing crises that had been emerging around the world and handpicked a new lineup for his new team.; ===Serpent's Tears===; When Sin acquired Erida's death mask and began using her new powers to terrorize Germany, Cap immediately left with the first members to arrive (Wasp, Photon, and Shang-Chi) to deal with her while Jarvis waited at Avengers Mansion to greet the remaining members. While Cap and his deployed team fought Sin, a tardy Clint Barton passed the time by playing poker and catching up with the team's later arrivals (Lightning, She-Hulk, Lightspeed, Hercules, and Wonder Man). By the time Sin had been defeated, Night Thrasher was the final member to arrive and provided the team with upgraded tech and gear, which included specialized Avengers Jackets.; For their next mission, Cap, Hawkeye, Night Thrasher and Hercules were deployed to Kingsport to deal with a legion of ghostly apes periodically attacking the town. After discovering that the apes were the angry ghosts of the Red Ghost's deceased Super-Apes, who had been trying to kill their former master in Kingsport, the AVENG.E.R.S. ended the threat by allowing the ghosts to attack Red Ghost but keeping him alive to stand trial, which allowed them to pass on to the afterlife.; While She-Hulk, Lightspeed, Lightning and Wonder Man were saving innocent vampires from the Nightstalkers at North Brother Island, Shang-Chi investigated a theft at museum that had been committed during the team's fight with Sin in Germany. Shang-Chi was ambushed by Tiger Snake, who had been anticipating Shang-Chi's arrival. The two fought to a standstill until Shang-Chi was forced to retreat after Tiger Snake poisoned him. After recovering at the Mansion, Shang-Chi met with Captain America after his team returned from Kingsport and recounted his fight with Tiger Snake, causing both to realize that the crises the AVENG.E.R.S. had been dealing with were a cover up for an even bigger threat.; Captain America discovered that the Serpent Society had been committing robberies near every single crisis the AVENG.E.R.S. dealt with. After receiving reports of Victorious' assault on Latveria and the Serpent Society committing a heist at an abandoned mine in Attania, the AVENG.E.R.S split into two teams, with Photon leading Lightning, Wonder Man, She-Hulk and Hercules against Victorious and Cap taking Shang-Chi, Night Thrasher, Lightspeed, Hawkeye and Wasp to deal with the Serpents. While Photon's team managed to talk Victorious down, Cap's team subdued Tiger Snake and the other Serpents. However, Tiger Snake kept the Squad distracted long enough for Titanoboa to get the drop in on them and Pit Viper to gather the final components for the Serpent's Tears. Pit Viper attempted to subject Shang-Chi to the Tears but Captain America jumped in the way--which Pit Viper expected him to do--and was transformed into a snake-like monster. The remaining AVENG.E.R.S. arrived and rallied together to stop the Serpent Society. Night Thrasher and Hawkeye led the assault while providing cover and additional weaponry and equipment; Shang-Chi, She-Hulk and Lightspeed each defeated Tiger Snake, Titanoboa and Pit Viper, respectively; Lightning and Hercules routed the remaining Serpents; Wonder Man destroyed the supply of Serpent's Tears and Wasp and Photon immobilized Cap-Snake. After the Serpents were sent to the Hague, Cap was taken back to the Avengers Mansion where he was reverted back to normal.; ===The Monolith===; After apprehending Crossbones, Daredevil was recruited by Captain America into the AVENG.E.R.S.. A charity soccer game between the main Avengers team and the Emergency Response Squad was interrupted when a gigantic crimson Monolith suddenly appeared in Staten Island, which attracted the attention of Tyrannus and his army of Tyrannoids. Both Avengers teams arrived to stop Tyrannus and his army as his invasion to claim the Monolith was harming nearby civilians. Most of the Avengers were preoccupied with evacuating civilians while Tyrannus used his powers to immobilize Wonder and Shang-Chi and controlled several bystanders to act as human shields to protect him from Photon and Captain America. However when Tyrannus reached the Monolith, it pulled him inside its dimension. Without Tyrannus controlling them, the Tyrannoids went berserk and attacked everything in sight. Realizing that Tyrannus was needed to pacify the Tyrannoids, Wonder Man traveled inside the Monolith to retrieve Tyrannus, who had been reduced to an emaciated corpse by the Monolith's energies. Wonder Man returned with Tyrannus's body, which was then revived by Photon. Out of gratitude for being resurrected, Tyrannus then brought the Tyrnnoids heel with his powers and ended his invasion. As his resurrection and pacification his army left him heavily weakened, Tyrranus did not resist arrest but was able to get himself released by claiming diplomatic immunity as the ruler of Subterranea.; ===Deep Freeze===; When Diabol hijacked a Russian cruise ship before it docked at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal and demanded to face the Avengers, Shang-Chi, Wasp, Photon and Daredevil were sent to investigate. Diabol used his magic to summon the AVENG.E.R.S. within a dark winter forest that he created within the ship and sent crew members under his possession to attack them, but the AVENG.E.R.S. freed them from his control. Diabol revealed himself to the AVENG.E.R.S. and turned Wasp into one of his demonic servants. Daredevil freed Wasp from Diabol's control by destroying his presence within Wasp's mind in the Astral Plane while Shang-Chi and Photon combined their powers to disintegrate Diabol, which also freed themselves and the captured crew from his dimension.; ===Incineration===; While the AVENG.E.R.S. were enjoying their off day, Shang-Chi and Night Thrasher returned to Staten Island to analyze the Monolith and discovered that it was absorbing cosmic energy and while it resisted most forms of technology and magic, it was psychokinetic in nature. Captain America and the Human Torch met up in Cooperstown for a game of baseball, but were attacked by the Promethean Front and Basil Frankenstein III, who misblamed the two Invaders for the death of his grandfather. Hawkeye, Hercules and Lightning arrived to back up Cap and the Torch. After the Torch and Lightning defeated the Prometheans, Hercules slew the Terrortoma and Cap and Hawkeye incapacitated Frankenstein, the mad doctor refused to surrender attempted to kill the AVENG.E.R.S. by detonating himself but he was incinerated by the Torch, who afterwards was recruited by Cap into the AVENG.E.R.S.; ===Immortal and King of Dreams===; Mister Immortal was recruited into the AVENG.E.R.S. and sent by Night Thrasher to investigate the dimension inside the Monolith with Hercules. Due to their immortality, the two were able to survive inside the Monolith long enough to discover that the tower itself possessed a consciousness.; Night Thrasher received no response from the Mansion when he reported his findings and the returning Wonder Man and She-Hulk discovered that the Mansion was covered in thick cobwebs and Jarvis, Cap, Hawkeye, Shang-Chi, Photon, Lightning and Wasp were stuck in deep sleep. She-Hulk and Wonder Man were attacked and put to sleep by the webs but Wonder-Man sent out a telepathic distress signal before losing consciousness, which was received by Somnus. Somnus appeared at the Mansion and encountered Hercules, who had been sent by Night Thrasher to investigate. The two sent themselves to the Dreamscape to free the AVENG.E.R.S. from the nightmare that trapped them. There, they found the AVENG.E.R.S.' trapped consciousnesses and encountered the culprit behind the attack: Cobweb. Somnus' dream manipulation abilities protected him and Hercules from Cobweb's powers and after waking up Lightning, Somnus used his electricity to defeat Somnus without harming the trapped AVENG.E.R.S.. Cobweb was apprehended by the Sleepwalkers while Somnus and the AVENG.E.R.S. returned to the Mansion where he was subsequently offered membership.; ===Exposing the Business===; At Night Thrasher's insistence, Somnus visited the Monolith and used his powers to confirm that it was sentient. Meanwhile, She-Thing contacted She-Hulk for help investigating the disappearances of recently signed trainees for UCWF. She-Thing helped She-Hulk, Photon and Wasp come up with wrestling disguises to infiltrate the UCWF and uncover who was behind the abductions. When the three AVENG.E.R.S. proved sucessful, they were teleported by the culprit, Arcata, to her unground area called the No-Escape Room in Madripoor, where she was hosting illegal blood sports to the death, and pitted them against her champion, the Cancellator. The AVENG.E.R.S shed their disguises and defeated the Cancellator, but spared her. They confronted Arcata at her secret base in Tavern Island, Connecticut, but despite Arcata empowering herself by injecting herself with Eternal DNA, they defeated her. After Arcata was taken to the Hague and her blood sport was shut down, She-Thing was offered membership into the AVENG.E.R.S.; ===Evolutionary Assault===; Moondragon was summoned from space by Hercules to assist Night Thrasher with studying the Monolith and used her powers to deduce that the Monolith was dormant but also young. Meanwhile, Sorcerer Supreme Doom had attacked the High Evolutionary at Wundagore VII to free the captive Nadkov family, but their battle treatened the nearly city of Ellgorod. With Cap already preoccupied helping Aero against Eugenix, Hawkeye sent Photon, Hercules, She-Hulk, Wonder Man and Lightning to Ellgorod to stop the threat. At the mansion, Cap and Aero discussed the future while Shang-Chi and Moondragon sparred. While the other AVENGE.R.S. protected civilians, distracted Doom and the Evolutionary by damaging Wundagore as Wonder Man rescued the Nadkovs, but Doom took advantage of the interruption to attack the Evolutionary again. The two continued to fight until the AVENGE.R.S. ordered them to stand down but Doom used his magic to send the Evolutionary to the Land of Mad Silence. With the Nadkovs rescued, Doom reversed the Evolutionary's experiments on them and peacefully returned with them to Latveria, although his actions badly damaged his reputation with the people of Ellgorod. After the conflict, Jarvis seemingly vanished while reading The Blood Bandit.; ===Into the Ideaverse!===; Hawkeye, Shang-Chi and Elektra investigated Jarvis' disappearance and were also magically pulled into the pages of The Blood Bandit. The three ended up in the Ideaverse and were greeted by Prospero, who deduced that Jarvis was possibly captured by Bishop Slaughter but could not detect or stop Slaughter due to working with Bookworm, as a prior uroath Prospero made prevented him from acting against Bookworm or any in service with him. After Prospero left, they were confronted by the Bloodletters but the AVENGE.R.S. allowed themselves to be captured to confront Slaughter and possibly find Jarvis. As they were being led away, Shang-Chi left one of his Ten Rings behind, which was found by Jarvis and the Avenging Literary Society. At the Slaughterhouse, Slaughter had the AVENGE.R.S.' weapons taken and revealed his plans to have Bookworm capture people from the real world who read his book to force them into joining the Bloodletters, giving them enough recruits to take over the Ideaverse and the real world but confessed the Jarvis had escaped from them. The AVENGE.R.S. helped Slaughter's other captives escape and reclaimed their weapons to fight him and the Bloodletters. Bookworm attempted to escape but was stopped by Jarvis and the Society, who had used the Ring as a tracking device. With the Bloodletters defeated, Slaughter made a last ditch effort to keep the AVENGE.R.S. and his captives trapped in the Ideaverse by killing Bookworm, but this broke the uroath that bound Prospero, who appeared at the Salughterhouse and used his magic to pacify Slaughter and send the displaced prisoners back to their reality. The AVENGE.R.S. and Society celebrated before returning with Jarvis to their world.; ===The Living Testament===; After weeks of inactivity, the Monolith began to stir and Night Thrasher and Hercules recruited Phone Ranger to interpret the signals emitted from the Monolith. The visage of Ahmet Abdol emerged from the Monolith and revealed that he created the Monolith to use as a chrysalis for himself while remaking his body into a more powerful form, which he hoped to complete by absorbing all of Earth's life force. Abdol provoked Night Thrasher into striking him, causing his cocoon to break and hastening his metamorphosis. Night Thrasher called in the entire AVENGE.R.S., but despite their efforts, Abdol emerged as the Living Testament. The main Avengers were also summoned to help but the Living Testament began absorbing the lifeforce of every being on the the planet, which immobilized both teams. However, the Living Testament was confronted by Captain Beyond, who was immune to the effects and drawn to the battle. Captain Beyond used his powers to help the Avengers recover and resume fighting but the Living Testament proved to be too powerful. Conducting a plan with Captain Beyond, Night Thrasher had the Scarlet Witch summon everyone to the Lumina, which the Living Testament desired to control. However, Abdol felt unfulfilled and after some harsh words from Night Thrasher, felt remorse for his actions and reverted back to his human form. As everyone returned to Earth, the Living Testament's actions were reversed and Abdol allowed himself to be turned in while She-Hulk promised to prosecute the people who killed his family.

+Batroc's Brigade is a team of mercenaries organized and led by Batroc the Leaper. Although Batroc can and has operated on many occasions as a solo mercenary, he frequently employs a "Brigade" contingent upon his assignment. Most commonly, the Brigade is formed by only two additional costumed mercenaries, always with Batroc as the leader.; ===First Batroc's Brigade:===; The first Brigade was formed when Batroc was hired by an unknown person to steal an object called the "seismo-bomb". Batroc, considering the task beyond his personal skills, hired two more mercenaries, but they were defeated by Captain America and the mission was a failure.; Batroc the Leaper - (Georges Batroc); Living Laser - (Arthur Parks); Swordsman - (Jacques DuQuesne); ===Second Batroc's Brigade===; Batroc formed a new Brigade when he was hired by The Hood. The Hood wanted Batroc and other mercenaries to attack Captain America, but they were again defeated. The Second Brigade included:; Batroc the Leaper - (Georges Batroc); Porcupine - (Alexander Gentry); Whirlwind - (David Cannon); ===Third Brigade===; For a time, Batroc composed "brigades" with various common thugs. None of them had superhuman powers, advanced technology or a costume.; ===Fourth Brigade===; Batroc formed a last brigade with other two mercenaries to try and steal Captain America's shield, but that mission also failed. This brigade included:; Batroc the Leaper - (Georges Batroc); Machete - (Ferdinand Lopez) - (deceased); Zaran - (Maximillian Zaran); While the original Machete has since perished and been replaced by his brother (who ALSO perished and was replaced by a third brother), this incarnation has been active the longest, carrying out various mercenary missions.; Machete (Alfonso Lopez) - (Alfonso Lopez) - (deceased); Machete (Mariano Lopez) - (Mariano Lopez); Most recently Rapido and a female Machete have joined the brigade.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Citadel of Mundane Magic, above Rad Ronin's Fujiyama Funhouse, New York
+History:
+The Band of the Bland were a group of mundane, derivative, stereotypical wannabe super-villains that no one had ever heard of. Dr. Angst summoned the group together in Central Park because he claimed that they shared one common thing, none of them had ever had an original thought in their lives. He stated that he wanted the group to band together to make a name for themselves, but in actuality he had been hired by an unknown party to kill then-presidential candidate Howard the Duck. Before seeking out and attacking Howard, Angst gave the group Mettle Spheres created from a mystical element called Promethium that was supposed to enhance their powers. As it turned out, Promethium is actually a mystical placebo that actually has no real effect on its user. Nonetheless, the group, now believing that they were stronger than ever, attacked Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum, where Howard was conversing with the Defenders. Howard and the Defenders soon defeated the Band, and they were presumably sent to prison.; Years later, Angst escaped from prison and tracked down the other members of the Band of the Bland who had all been released earlier and had gone their own separate ways, creating unspectacular lives for themselves. Angst reformed the Band to put a new mystical plot into motion. This plot became known as the Cosmic Squish Principle, essentially this would release a multitude of compacted universes which would eventually squish their own Earth dimension out of existence. Angst created five loci points amidst all of the pocket universes, and out of these he planned to create a new universe, the Insipiverse, which the Band would be the rulers of. This plot was opposed by the She-Hulk, her secretary Louise Mason, 1940s vigilante The Terror, a member of an offshoot of the Watchers race known as the Critic, Brent Wilcox and the Band's old enemy, Howard the Duck. This group caused Black Hole to suck up all of the pocket universes using his power and the Critic forced him to hold them all within him. Black Hole somehow later ended up in Ravencroft mental institution, but the fate of the rest of the Band remains unrevealed.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Transportation: Sky Shark's zeppelin. A Nazi submarine.
+Notes: The group consists of public domain characters that were originally introduced as heroes during the Golden-Age of comic books, but re-imagined by Roy Thomas as villains.
+History:
+The Battle-Axis were a Nazi super human team, gathered by the American scientist James Bradley (a.k.a. Doctor Death), mostly composed of former American superheroes who liked the Third Reich for various reasons:; Spider Queen started hating Americans when they allied with the USSR, because Russians had previously killed her husband.; Strong Man liked how easily Nazis won against France and the UK and he decided to join them.; Human Meteor, being Irish, hated the UK and so joined the enemies.; Volton was an android created by Doctor Death himself.; The Polish Jewish Golem joined the Reich because Doctor Death threatened to kill his brother.; The alien Vision was forced to join because Doctor Death blocked his way to return his world.; Alongside with the Nazi Sky Shark, Doctor Death and his Battle-Axis managed to achieve Hitler's plan to force the US to quit the war, so that the UK would have surrendered and the whole Nazi forces would have attacked the USSR.; Their first step was to come to the US from Germany, so they travelled via a submarine, but once close to New York City, Captain America, Human Torch and Namor caught them, but they were easily defeated (even if not captured) by those unknown enemies. Later, the Nazi team was able to capture Whizzer, but his girlfriend Miss America escaped to warn the other heroes. After the team met with Sky Shark, they left New York to their next destination: Los Angeles.; There Doctor Death "enlisted" Jacob Goldstein forcing his transformation into the Golem and with his help was able to add the Human Torch to his "collection". Meanwhile, a squad attacked a university where scientists were doing research to help the US's efforts in WWII, there they tried to steal the Oscillatron, but Captain America, Miss America and the Silver Scorpion prevented that, even if they couldn't stop the Nazis from destroying the building.; While in his secret headquarters, Doctor Death explained to the two captured heroes that they were being kept alive only to be studied because of their powers> In addition to that, Death revealed he was the co-creator of the Human Torch with Doctor Horton. Then he explained his plan to use his version of the oscillatron to cause an earthquake that would have destroyed a whole part of the country, forcing Americans to focus on that problem instead of supporting German's enemies. Shortly after, Captain America, Namor and other heroes attacked them and nearly defeated them, but Doctor Death used one of the machines in that laboratory to summon the Vision from his dimension, convincing him to join them and launch him against the Invaders. Eventually, the whole team was imprisoned.; The Oscillatron was almost ready to work, when Doctor Death revealed the real key of his plan was to cause the emission of the tons of lethal gases stocked in an underground place nearby. Meanwhile, Volton had been left alone with the Invaders, who made him to realize he wasn't human; a furious Volton destroyed Cap's cage and the hero freed the rest of the team. Together, they attacked the Battle Axis just a moment before Doctor Death turned the Oscillator on and that time there was nothing the Nazis could do to stop the heroes' charge, the Invaders were helped by the Golem too, after Sky Shark killed his brother when he rebelled against the Axis; however, Bradley was finally able to activate the machine, but he was killed by a vengeful Volton. In a final attempt to stop the Oscillator, Namor flew against that, destroying it... but the threat didn't end, as a little quantity of gas had freed and risked to kill everyone in there; however Vision saw in those fumes a way to open a portal to his homeworld and he did that, claiming he felt ashamed for having helped Nazis.; After that battle, Battle-Axis disbands.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+History:
+The Asp, Black Mamba, and Diamondback were close friends as well as founding members of Sidewinder's super-villain team, the Serpent Society.; When Diamondback began secretly dating the hero Captain America, otherwise known as Steve Rogers, the others acted behind the scenes to make sure that her first real date was uneventful. After learning of Diamondback and Cap's relationship, the Society's new leader, King Cobra, had Diamondback kidnapped and placed on trial, fearing that she would reveal the group's secrets to the Captain. Diamondback was found guilty by the majority of her fellow Serpents, and sentenced to execution. Black Mamba and Asp objected, but were overruled by King Cobra. To save Diamondback, Black Mamba and Asp called in a favor from their former leader, Sidewinder (who was also Black Mamba's ex-boyfriend), and he rescued Diamondback. However, in retaliation, King Cobra captured the Asp and Black Mamba. Diamondback then hired the mercenary Paladin to help her free the pair. Together, with Captain America, and Paladin, the five combined to defeat the Serpent Society.; Fearing retaliation from the Society, Diamondback suggested they form their own group, B.A.D. Girls, Inc., the "B", "A", and "D" being the initials of their combined codenames. Later, the remaining Serpent Society members captured Diamondback, however, M.O.D.A.M. intervened and kidnapped their former teammate Anaconda and all three B.A.D Girls to enlist them for Superia's army of Femizons. While on Superia's cruise ship, Asp and Mamba befriended Zambian criminal javelin expert Impala, while Diamondback was attacked and almost killed by her old rival Snapdragon. Traumatized, Diamondback decided to quit adventuring, and the team were rescued by Captain America and Paladin who once again joined forces with them to defeat Superia and her Femizons. After the battle, Captain America offered to clear their names, but the girls declined. When Mamba pulled the image of Diamondback's greatest fear from her, which was Snapdragon, Diamondback quit the group in anger. Black Mamba and Asp decided to investigate, seeking out Snapdragon.; In New York's Bar With No Name, the pair were attacked by Battleaxe, Steel Wind, and Golddigger, who were seeking the bounty Superia had placed on their heads. Impala came to their rescue and joined B.A.D. Girls Inc.,replacing Diamondback.; The new trio briefly fought Sersi an Avenger when stealing a Serpent Saucer from the Society's old headquarters, and eventually tracked Superia and Snapdragon to an A.I.M. weapons exposition in Boca Caliente. However, when Snapdragon was killed by Diamondback, the threesome lost their immediate goal, and the group eventually dissolved.; Diamondback regained her confidence and she contacted her friends and their group remained intermittently active. Diamondback worked for S.H.I.E.L.D., while the Asp and Black Mamba both freelanced. Mamba briefly worked for Justine Hammer against the Thunderbolts.; Some time later, Asp and Mamba rejoined the Serpent Society when they were hunting what King Cobra believed to be Diamondback, but who turned out to be a LMD. The founding B.A.D. Girls later reunited when Cable anonymously hired them to steal a new computer hard drive from the Dominus Corporation. After battling Deadpool for the technology, they determined that it had already been stolen by Cat, and confronted him in Hong Kong. Aiding Deadpool against an army of Makeshift and Rive clones, they completed their contract, and the trio went their separate ways until their next hire.; ===Civil War===; During the superhero Civil War over the Super Human Registration Act, the B.A.D. Girls opposed it, and joined up with Captain America's Secret Avengers.; ===Disbandment===; Over time, the market for "do-gooder" mercenaries turned out to be scarce, with an already crowded supply. This predicament led to the dissolution of B.A.D. Girls.; ===Armament===; Black Mamba, Diamondback and Asp reform the team and hired by tech company the Armament to take down White Widow.

+Species / origin: Exposure to various radiations
+Reality: Earth-616
+Notes: The full motivation for the Superior creating the other Bastards has not yet been revealed, though he did state that he plans to elevate society by dismantling it in order to rebuild it. He refers to the other Bastards as his "siblings", and at one point suggested that Gravity would be a good candidate to become a brother if he were not already an adult, suggesting that his process only works on younger individuals. This could also be because the Superior does not believe that adults are adequate for his vision of the new reality, and that it must be a youth revolution.
+History:
+The allegedly discarded and disavowed sons and daughters of super-villains, the Bastards of Evil formed not to rob banks or take over the world, but purely to cause death and destruction to prove that they were superior beings. They see themselves as the next generation, the future, of evil.; Initially, the Bastards individually committed acts of destructive terrorism around the United States and documented their actions with floating robotic cameras. The footage would then be uploaded to a website for viewing and comments, attempting to generate positive feedback for their acts of terror. One such event, Warhead destroying an unidentified portion of Ohio, was stopped by Gravity, though Warhead escaped.; The Bastards made their debut as a full group in New York City, where they encountered the various members of the group contextually known as the Young Allies. Aftershock ridiculed Firestar for trying to find a reason behind their actions, while Ember taunted several innocent bystanders that, even though a hero was on the scene, they were still going to die because the hero was too busy fighting the other Bastards of Evil to save them. Warhead was saved from losing a fight against an enraged Gravity by his teammate Singularity, but said that it would have been better to have let Gravity kill him in order to have a shiny super-hero murder a super-villain on camera. Warhead then blew himself up on the former site of the World Trade Center, killing himself and thousands of innocent bystanders.; It was later revealed that the Bastards of Evil were actually ordinary teenagers kidnapped by the Superior. Exposed to various forms of radiation and given "personal narrative implants", the Bastards were given false memories of being the forgotten children of super-villains with powers similar to those that the Superior gave them. The Bastards were meant as an example of "what the future ought to hold" for humanity, at least within the Superior's perspective.; When Allies Nomad and Araña were kidnapped, the Bastards planned to murder them on live television as well as their website. The Young Allies were able to convince the Bastards of Evil to fight amongst themselves, with Aftershock openly attacking Singularity. The blast caused Singularity's true memories to return, making him remember his life before his false memories. Turning on the Superior, and causing the other remaining Bastards to question their own memories, he allowed the Young Allies (with the assistance of some more veteran heroes) the time to defeat them.; The Bastards of Evil are currently being held in prison. The Superior claimed that he already had a plan to escape incarceration, wipe the memories of the remaining Bastards and create "new siblings".

+History:
+The Batmen were a group of unwilling slaves of the Nazi scientist known only as the Vulture. Injected with a serum that increased their strength 20 fold and gave them the ability to fly, they required repeat injections every 24 hours or they would die. It would appear that the injections caused them to mutate into bald, purple skinned creatures. The Vulture had their tongues cut out to prevent them from speaking and gave them prop wings to aid with their flying.; In the fall of 1943, the Vulture then sent his Batmen to help capture members society that were assisting the war effort within the United States as well as to carry out sabotage missions across the country. The Vulture publicized his kidnappings and acts of sabotage by warning the authorities in advance and boasting how they and Captain America could not capture them.; Ultimately, one of the Batmen were captured by Captain America and his partner Bucky who forced the mute Batman to show them to his masters hideout. However, the 24 hour period for re-injection elapsed and the Batman died. Undaunted, the two heroes managed to find the Vulture's hideout, but were captured themselves. They were brought to the "Aerie" the Vultures hideout hidden within a mountain that was impossible for normal men to clumb. Captain America and Bucky managed to break free and defeat the Vulture. Then used some of his serum so that they and the Vulture's prisoners could escape. Before leaving, Captain America destroyed all means to create more of the serum and all of the Batmen presumably died.

+History:
+The Bandit Murder Gang, as they came to be known, were a group of bank robbers who were active during the 1940s. In 1945 they devised a plan in which they used New York's sewer system to tunnel up into bank vaults and clean them out. In order to confuse the authorities, they then blasted the vault doors off the hinges. During one of these robberies, they were caught in the act by two police officers who were gunned down in cold blood. These murders attracted the attention of the Human Torch and Toro who began investigating the strange robberies.; After two more successful heists, the gang prepared to rob the Farmers Exchange Bank when the Torch deduced who the robberies were being done. Following the tunnels to the gangs base, the two heroes were spotted by one of its members and their leader set a trap for the two flaming heroes. Trapping them in a glass dome filled with asbestos gum, the Bandit Murder Gang left the two heroes to die under the constricting force of the drying asbestos gum.; The Torch and Toro managed to break free and chased the gang to the Farmers Exchange. There, the crooks attempted to flee through the bank vault, but a fire ball launched by the Torch set off a fuse of their explosives, the resulting explosion killed the entire gang.

+Reality: Earth-94241
+Base of operations: New Xandar, Battleworld
+Equipment: Nova Stars, Infinity Gauntlet
+History:
+The Bakian Clan was a family that roamed the ruins of New Xandar, on the constant run from the Annihilation Wave that had razed the entire world. The mother of the family, Eve forced herself to leave them in order to join the ranks of the Nova Corps and help them fight the bugs, and she hadn't returned for years. Her husband Menzin remained protecting their daughters Anwen and Fayne Bakian, with the help of his father-in-law and the family dog Zigzag.; One night when they were camping in a park, the Bakians were attacked by a horde of bugs and forced to split up. Anwen run away with her grandfather, who ultimately sacrificed himself to save her. Menzin fled with Fayne, and was helped by Thanos to evade the monsters. Soon after Anwen discovered a mysterious blue rock inside one of the bugs, she reunited with Eve, who had managed to return.; Eve reconvened with the rest of the Bakians, and their new ally, and give each member of her family, including the dog, a Nova Star and deputized them as members of the Nova Corps. After a brief training session, Anwen showed to her mother the rock she had found, which Eve identified as the Mind Stone, one of the six Infinity Stones. Eve proceeded to guide her family and Thanos to the Nova HQ, so they could rest, and to show them the Space Stone they had in their posession.; However, when they arrived, the place had been razed by the Annihilation Wave, and somebody took advantage of the attack and had stolen the stone. The Bakian clan and Thanos caught up with the thieves, Star-Lord and Gamora and forced them to land. After Eve bought the Stone from them for three Nova Stars, Gamora suggested to join them, considering they shared the common goal of wishing to put an end to the bugs.; When the Bakian clan and the others were flying to the location of the next stone in Star-Lord's ship, Thanos talked to Anwen, and tried to convince that family was weakness and she was better off alone. The Bakians arrived to their destiation, a desolated forest, and the Power Stone was given to them by Groot.; The next location was Magus City, a sanctuary under the protection of Adam Warlock, wielder of the Soul Gem, who used it to keep the Annihilation Wave at bay. Unbeknownst to the Bakians and their allies, Adam also fed on the souls of the inhabitants of the city to power himself and keep the monsters away. When the Bakian were received by Warlock and his Knights of Xandar, a fight for the ownership of the Stone broke out, because Magus didn't want to let go of the Stone. Drax the Destroyer, a being bent on hunting down Thanos, irrupted into the battle, and demanded the presence of the Mad Titan. The Bakians attacked him, initially believing him to be an enemy.; When Warlock used the Soul Stone on Eve to control her, she discovered the full use he gave to the Stone. Thanos tackled Warlock and saved Eve before her soul was consumed, and took the Soul Stone for himself. Thanos turned to Eve, and absorbed her soul with the Soul Stone, before taking the other four Stones from her.; Thanos released a behemoth bug to deal with his former allies while he teleported away to find the remaining gem, the Reality Stone. Anwen suggested to use Zigzag's Nova Star-enhanced smell to track down the Reality Stone from the scent of Eve's gauntlet. The Bakians arrived to Mount Terizi, and got hold of the Reality Stone before Thanos arrived. With the ability to alter reality, the Balkians were match for the power of Thanos and his five stones. Anwen created a giant mecha out of thin air to battle Thanos, but it proved ineffective. Menzin tried to push Thanos out of reality, causing an explosion that knocked each parties down. When she recovered from the explosion found the Reality Stone, Anwen was confronted by Thanos. Awen suspiciously gave Thanos the Reality Stone without a fight, and the Mad Titan boasted about the completed Infinity Gauntlet. However, the Gauntlet started acting odd. The gem that Awen had given Thanos wasn't the Reality Stone, it was a newly-created "Death Stone." Thanos quickly succumbed to the Death Stone and turned to dust.; After the fight had ended, Anwen used the Soul Stone to visit her mother, who had remained trapped within it.

+History:
+The Banshee Squadron was a division of air force dedicated to defending the domain of Hala Field. Its leader is Captain Marvel.; Some of Banshee Squadron's members began to doubt God-Emperor Doom, specifically what lied beyond Battleworld, an area called the Void. This doubt started to affect Captain Marvel as well. One day, Jacquelin Cochran, the Baroness of Hala Field, ordered the Banshee Squadron to destroy an incoming ship, supposedly full of Ultrons. Before attacking the ship, Captain Marvel became curious and entered it to see if Ultrons really were inside. Instead, she found a man on board. She was unable to stop the attack, but she was successful in saving that the man, who became the sole survivor of his crew.; Marvel brought the man to the Banshee Squadron Barracks to recoup. He later identified himself as Jim Rhodes, an inhabitant of the domain of Limbo, who escaped from it with his crew after doubting Doom. Marvel's doubts about Doom and what lied beyond Battleworld grew even more. Determined to see what was like, Marvel and her crew Carol and her crew spent the next several days customizing their aircraft to allow them to travel beyond Battleworld's sky. However, something went wrong when one member of the Banshee Squadron, Helen Cobb, went to test her aircraft on her own, and the aircraft exploded.; Fortunately, Marvel was able to rescue Helen from her exploding aircraft. With their plan to explore the Void now ruined, the Banshee Squadron feared that the entire base would be onto them. So, Marvel told the Banshee Squadron that they needed to leave and ordered them to fly off in their aircraft. Before leaving with the rest of the Squadron, Marvel went to get Rhodes and arrived just in time to help them lose the aircraft that were sent to chase them. However, Baroness Cochran had contacted Doom, and Doom ordered the Thors to stop the Banshee Squadron. It wasn't long before the Thors pinned the Banshee Squadron down as soon as they had reached land to rest.; Marvel drew the Thors away so the Banshee Squadron escaped. Rhodes and Helen helped out Marvel by remaining on the ground and helping her evade the Thors via radio. Marvel's friend, Kit Renner, was a member of the Thors and was among the Thors attacking the Banshee Squadron. Kit decided to help her friend instead of fight her and dealt with the Thors while Marvel and the Banshee Squadron flew into the Void to see what lied beyond Battleworld.

+Notes: The character of Rocket Raccoon is a parody of the near-eponymous character featured in the song "Rocky Raccoon" from the Beatles' 1968 album The Beatles, affectionately known as "The White Album." The story from the song, which involves Rocky's attempt to save his girlfriend from a villain, reflects events that were chronicled in Incredible Hulk Vol 1 271. The title of this issue, "Now Somewhere In the Black Holes of Sirius Major There Lived a Young Boy Name of Rocket Raccoon!" is a play on the opening lyric of the song "Now somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota, there lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon." Another Beatles reference is Rocket's sidekick, Wal Rus, who happens to be a talking walrus. The album Magical Mystery Tour had the song "I Am the Walrus" and Paul McCartney wearing a mask of the pinniped, something referenced in another song in The White Album, "Glass Onion" ("here's a clue to you all/the Walrus was Paul").; The title of Daredevil Vol 1 101; The story title, "Beetlemania!" of the issue Spider-Man: Web of Doom Vol 1 3, is a play on the fervor that gripped America when the Beatles arrived in the early 1960s, a near-hysteria known as "Beatlemania."; Not Brand Echh Vol 1 12 parodies popular Beatles songs, with the lyrics rearranged to be all about the Howling Commandos.; The tagline to Iron Man Vol 1 119 is "Back in the U.S.S.R.!" This is a reference to the 1968 song of the same name by the Beatles that opens The White Album.; The main characters of the first story in Dark X-Men Vol 1 1 are given short descriptions, the last line of each is also the name of a Beatles song.; The iconic image of the Beatles crossing Abbey Road is parodied in the X-Men Vol 4 1 Deadpool-themed variant cover.
+History:
+The history of the Beatles on Earth-616 mirrors that of their real world counterparts until about 1964. The intent of this page is to explore the events that are unique to the Earth-616 version of the Beatles. In some cases, the Beatles have been depicted as being active during the Modern Age. Barring any sort of explanation, these should be considered topical references per the Sliding Timescale of Earth-616.; ===Skrulls===; The Skrull Beatles were a group of Skrulls that took on the appearances of the original Beatles, with each taking the form of a Beatle. The faux-Beatles were intended to take the place of the real Beatles, and use their positions to launch a Skrull invasion. John, however, thought the Skrull Beatles could do more than an alien invasion, and convinced their bosses to give them free reign. Much like the real Beatles, the Skrull Beatles eventually found their interests leading in different directions, leading to the band's break-up. They were all later revealed to have been killed except for John, who died later.; ===Apocryphal Appearances===; Unless these appearances can be attributed to the Skrull Beatles, the following "appearances" of the Beatles should be considered topical references.; During the early days of the Fantastic Four, the Thing and the Human Torch took their girlfriends Alicia Masters and Doris Evans, respectively, out to see a live musical performance. When the box office was robbed, the pair stopped the crooks that were responsible. During this ordeal, they crossed paths with the musicians in question. These musicians have been depicted as the Beatles, as they appeared circa 1965.; The wedding of Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Girl attracted a massive audience, including members of the super-hero community and celebrities. In at least one account, musicians resembling the Beatles were depicted as being in attendance.; ===References===; The work of the Beatles (or their Skrull impersonators) have had a cultural impact on many of the costumed heroes of the Earth-616 universe. There are many instances where various characters sing music by, or made reference to, the Beatles.; The Beatles wig that the Thing wore was given to him by the Yancy Street Gang.; The Beast of the X-Men, singing while under the Manipulator's mental control, replaces "Father McKenzie" with "Professor Xavier" in the Beatles' classic song "Eleanor Rigby".; While testing Dominic Destine to determine if they are from the same reality, Kitty Pryde asked him about the Beatles, Madonna, John Wayne and Winston Churchill.; Jim Braddock hummed a song from the Beatles as he messed with the X-Men, deciding that "Helter Skelter" was too obvious and passing on "Magical Mystery Tour".; Karolina Dean is a fan of the Beatles especially the song "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds". Her chosen codename was Lucy in the Sky, and Xavin chose "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" as their wedding song for Karolina.; When he became the new King in Black, Eddie Brock named four of his symbiote subjects after the four core members of the Beatles.

+Notes: Hawkeye off-handedly calls this group "the Babysitters Club" in War of the Realms: Journey Into Mystery Vol 1 2 and War of the Realms: Journey Into Mystery Vol 1 3, but the team is never actually given an official name.
+History:
+The "Babysitters Club," as nicknamed by Hawkeye, was a group of heroes gathered by Balder the Brave during the War of the Realms in order to keep his baby sister, Laussa, from being taken by her half-sister Sindr, the Queen of Cinders. Their formation was suggested to Balder by the Norn Skuld, who also told him to take Laussa as far to the West as possible. Using Wonder Man's Wonder Wagon for transportation and to hide in plain sight, they were being hunted by Sindr's accomplice Ares, the God of War. When the babysitters were on the road, Ares approached them in his all-terrain truck. Wonder Man broke the bridge where they were driving in half, allowing the group to escape.; Unknownst to any of her protectors, Laussa's godly and royal instincts prompted her to gather an army to fight in the War of the Realms, and she instinctively used her latent powers of mental manipulation to influence the "Babysitters Club" into visiting specific destinations where they could gather allies she would then influence too. The first of these locations was Bide-a-Wee RV Campground, a caravan park inhabited by Skrull desertors. As they ran out of the camper, the heroes were introduced to the permanent residents of the campground. They were invited to a sing along around the campfire. During the performance, Laussa caused a fickler of the fire to burn the guitar that Sol was playing, forcing him to reveal his true nature. The rest of the campers revealed themselves and attacked the heroes in order to keep their secret safe, but calmed down very quickly when they were introduced to Laussa after Death Locket took her out of the camper and the baby charmed them into backing down.; After hitting the road the next morning, the "Babysitter Club" came upon an abandoned Wild West-inspired theme park named Six Gun Territory. The group exited the RV and wandered around the town, where they were confronted by the Phantom Rider and other spirits until Druid's ability to talk to the ghosts revealed that their presence was related to Laussa. The Demon Rider later appeared to explain she had summoned the ghosts and they pledged allegiance to Laussa. They rode out of town in preparation for the War of the Realm's final battle afterwards.; Laussa next made the babysitters stop by Sterling Hotel & Casino, prompted by the need for funds for their trip, where they stumbled into HenchFest, a convention for super villain minions. When trying to make money at the casino by hacking the slot machines, a henchman recognized Hawkeye, resulting in a brawl until Simon managed to call a ceasefire. In the meantime, Ares had caught up with the babysitters after being guided to their location by Sindr. He abducted Laussa from the hotel room where she was being guarded by Thori.; The babysitters managed to retrieve the baby and confronted Ares. During the fight, the Demon Rider arrived with an army of the people from the locations the heroes had visited. She revealed that she had been influenced by Laussa, and had facilitated Ares' arrival by impersonating Sindr at the baby's request, so that she could influence Ares into fighting for the Earth. The babysitters discerned Laussa's powers and the fact that she had been influencing their entire journey. After Ares accepted to follow the child's will, the babysitters reactivated a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier hidden in Lake Tahoe and reached Avengers Mountain with their new allies and the baby safe. When Earth's heroes were gathered for the War of the Realm's final battle, the babysitters decided to move into the fight together.

+Base of operations: Cave-cathedral on a mountain, Wakanda
+Notes: It seems unlikely that the sacred herbs and sacred potion include the Heart-Shaped Herb since Aja Orisha had been exiled from Wakanda for decades before giving it to Kraven.; It also seems unlikely that the sacred herbs and sacred potion are the same as the Calypso Serum, as that serum has no known spiritual component.; Marvel's Balū-Ayē name is clearly inspired by the Yoruba orisha Babalú-Ayé (from Yoruba: Obaluaiyé), a deity linked to the earth, healing, life, and death. The word Ayé, which means "world" or "earth" in Yoruba, one of the official languages of Wakanda, the relationship between Balū-Ayē and the orisha is unclear.
+History:
+The Balū-Ayē are a revered order of female mystics tasked with providing spiritual protection to Wakanda. They lead lives of deep prayer and meditation, mastering ancient mysteries, and it is rumored that they are nearly immortal. Only once in a generation is a child chosen to join them. Once selected, the child is raised within the order, separated from their family and the outside world.; The Balū-Ayē dwell in a temple carved into a towering mountain, hidden in the heart of Wakanda. Upon their eighteenth birthday, initiates take their final vows and undergo the sacred Yān̄sān-Ān Ritual. During the ritual, they chew the sacred herbs and drink a sacred potion before they are ceremonially "buried" for two weeks. Their bodies lie still and unbreathing, but their minds race across psychic savannas, embarking on a great spiritual hunt. Their prey? Their own inner demons.; The goal of the hunt is not to destroy these demons but to face them, acknowledge them, and ultimately make peace with them. Only through this acceptance can their transformation be completed. If successful, the initiate will rise from their grave, spiritually reborn. The law of the order is clear: if a member chooses to leave the Balū-Ayē, they must leave Wakanda as well — forever exiled, never to return.

+Notes: Big Hero Six was created by Steve Seagle and Duncan Rouleau and were set to appear in their volume of Alpha Flight. Due to scheduling conflicts, however, the characters first appeared in Sunfire and Big Hero Six Vol 1 1 instead.
+History:
+===Origins===; When the Japanese government wanted a team of state-sanctioned superheroes at their disposal, a top-secret consortium of politicians and business entities known as the Giri was formed to recruit and train potential superhuman operatives for "Big Hero 6". Despite reservations by some members of the Giri, Silver Samurai, a freelance ronin and former bodyguard of the terrorist Viper, was appointed as field commander of the group. Secret agent Honey Lemon, inventor of the nanotechnology-based Power Purse from which she could access any object, also agreed to join the team. The tough-talking Gogo Tomago, able to transubstantiate her body into a fiery force blast by uttering her code-name, was released from prison on the condition that she serve on the team. The Machiavellian bureaucrat known only as Mr. Oshima was appointed as the Giri's spokesperson and coordinated Big Hero 6's activities.; Government scientists next identified smart boy genius Hiro Takachiho as a potential operative. Unimpressed with the Silver Samurai, Hiro declined joining the team until his mother was kidnapped by the Everwraith, the astral embodiment of all those killed in the 1945 nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Joined by Baymax, a synthetic bodyguard capable of synth-forming into a dragon which was created by Hiro using the brain engrams of his dead father, Hiro reluctantly joined forces with Big Hero 6 to prevent Everwraith from slaughtering millions in downtown Tokyo. During the battle, Big Hero 6 was joined by Sunfire, Japan's premiere super hero and a mutant with the ability to super-heat matter into plasma, who was instrumental in the Everwraith's defeat.; Soon after, Big Hero 6 moved their headquarters from the Giri Office Building to Japan's Cool World Amusement Park, where they were attacked by X the Unknowable, a monster born from a child's drawings that could transform its atomic structure into any form and shape. With the help of Alpha Flight, Big Hero 6 destroyed X the Unknowable in the fires of Mount Fuji. Afterwards, Big Hero 6 continued to protect Japan from all threats, such as when the team rescued Tokyo residents from a freak blizzard caused by the Crimson Cowl (Justine Hammer) and her Masters of Evil.; Eventually, Sunfire left Big Hero 6 so that he could work at Charles Xavier's X-Corporation office in Mumbai, India. His spot on the team was filled by Sunpyre, a young woman with similar solar-based powers who was pulled into this reality through the Power Purse and came to worship Honey Lemon as her own personal god. Similarly, after Silver Samurai was seemingly slain in an altercation with the assassin Elektra in Iraq, his spot on the team was filled by the enigmatic Ebon Samurai. With the two most experienced members of Big Hero 6 gone, Hiro became the team's new leader.; The members of Big Hero 6 fell victim to a mind-control device implanted within Baymax. Traveling to Canada, the mind-controlled super heroes attacked a new incarnation of Alpha Flight at a national park. After a brief battle, the mind-control device was short-circuited and the two teams parted as friends. Big Hero 6 returned to Japan to seek out the parties responsible for their mind-control.; ===New Big Hero Six===; After the super-human Civil War, instead of forcing heroes to join the Japan Defense Agency, the Japanese government preferred to established a voluntary public partnership: the Big Hero Six, including Red Ronin and Otomo.; Baymax and Hiro join the new Big Hero Six with new members Wasabi-No-Ginger and Fred. Together they battle Brute, Gunsmith and Whiplash. Working together they battle Badgal.; ===Ends of Earth===; Spider-Man rallied many of Earth's heroes including the Big Hero 6 to help stop the construction of Doctor Octopus' satellites, which the villain would have used to accelerate global warming. Big Hero 6 found one of the facilities, and discovered that it was being guarded by Everwraith. Despite a tough battle, Big Hero 6 finally ended up victorious.; ===Original Sin===; Despite still being considered Japan's premiere superhero team, Radiance was stated to be more popular than them or Sunfire. Big Hero Six were later confirmed to be engaged in a battle with the Jade-Gang-Stars on the dark side of the moon when Great Lord Dagora began attacking Tokyo, prompting Radiance and Jim Hammond to team up to protect the city.

+History:
+On a planet far from Earth, the Celestials visited and evolved the native species, much like the mutants of Earth. The beings evolved into super powered beings, some of them having outward alterations and other having interior alterations. The two groups began to segregate and the physically deformed beings became known as the Rejects, while the other, more humanoid, group became the Chosen. The Celestials, who were called "Space Gods", returned four times and judged both groups, finding them acceptable and leaving them to progress until their next appearance. The Space Gods were worshiped and considered saviors by both the Rejects and the Chosen, each group praying to the Celestials to sway the gods to their own petty purposes. After believing that the Space Gods did not hear their prayers, a third group emerged, comprised of both Rejects and Chosen, calling themselves, the Beginagains. Eventually, all groups began to become envious of each other and the whole planet began to war with each other.; The Beginagains moved underground, so as to not be seen with either group. The Chosen began to build huge cities, while the Rejects moved to the forests and woods.; ===X-Factor===; When the group X-Factor was pulled to their planet along with their Ship by the Celestials, the heroes were mistakenly split up divided into Reject and Chosen camps by the members of those sects. However, Cyclops, who was separated from the battle by the foot of the Celestial Gammenon, met the Beginagain leader, Ryest. He convinced the Beginagains to join him in his efforts to free his son and allies.; When the Celestials prepared to make their judgment, Ryest convinced the sects to set aside their differences to unite against the Celestials in an effort to save themselves. Channeling all of their power through Cyclops, they disintegrated the hand of Arishem the Judge, causing the Celestials to leave. Ryest understood that the Celestials had only allowed themselves to be driven off to encourage the unification of the sects. Ryest, along with Chosen leader Palik and Reject leader Zharkah, formed a triumvirate to guide the unification of the sect. Whether the unification is successful or not remains to be seen.

They took time off from their mission to enjoy some R&R with Havok at the Heaven Bar. They stayed behind as Cyclops and Havok went out to search for the Brood.; Some time later when Sinister decided to abandon Apocalypse because their goals greatly differed, the carefree Bedlam Brothers convinced Havok to once more join them at the Heaven Bar. There the brothers prevented an attempted suicide bombing by Henry Gyrich before returning to base. There they found that Sinister had destroyed his lab and left the group. The Bedlam Brothers suggested that Cyclops take command, a position that Cyclops reluctantly accepted. The Bedlam Brothers joined Cyclops in searching for traces of Sinister on Liberty Island.; When it was discovered by the Shadow King that Havok's lover, the human Scarlett McKenzie, was really a spy for the Human High Council the Bedlam Brothers brought her in.; When Cyclops defected and joined Jean Grey in liberating the slaves in the pens, Havok ordered the Bedlam Brothers to kill everyone in the pens. Not liking this, the Bedlam Brothers defected themselves and helped Cyclops and Jean battle the Guthrie family. The Bedlam Brothers decided to escape the city and change their reckless ways.

+History:
+A geological survey composed of U.S. and Canadian staff was flying to a remote location when unusual atmospherics caused difficulties for their pilot, Madelyne Pryor. Her boyfriend, Scott Summers was reminded of a storm he had faced while a member of the X-Men caused by Shaman. After a significant lightning flash, their plane crash landed.; Once on the ground, the expedition members discovered that most (with the exception of Scott Summers) been changed by the Fire Fountain. Those changed had grown in size and gained supernatural abilities. Madelyne Pryor discovered she had the ability to heal those injured. Master Builder created a city for them around the Fountain and Cornucopia created food and clothing.; Rachel Summers had perceived the danger to Summers (as he had fathered her in an alternate timeline). She initially attached Shaman under the mistaken belief he caused the accident. The X-Men and Alpha Flight worked together to find the expedition.; The group decided that they could use the magic of the Fire Fountain to cure all the world's ills and decided to use it to convert humanity. Once the combined X-Men/Alpha Flight arrived, it became apparent that the magic of the Fire Fountain had a negative effect on other magic users as Shaman lost control of his abilities and Snowbird was struck ill. Master Builder realized he was losing the ability to create new sculptures when he faced increasing difficulty in drawing new designs in his sketchbook.; Beastmaster and Pathfinder worked to prevent Wolverine from saving Snowbird. When enough questions began to surface, a rift developed between those who supported using the Fountain to change the world and those who did not.; After a battle, it was revealed the Fountain was created by Loki in an effort to elevate his status in Asgard. When it was also revealed that the cost to change was a person's creativity and ability to imagine, it was unanimously decided to stop Loki's plan. During the controntation, Those Who Sit Above in Shadow intervened and forced Loki to end his plans.; All the members of the group reverted to normal.

+Three electromechanical technology students (Joaquim Robichaux, Elizabeth Vaughn and Gary Quinn) at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey, broke into a warehouse, where they found and stole high-tech equipment from the CSA, including armors used by Abe Jenkins, known as the Beetle, a Thunderbolts member. They used the MK-1, MK-2 and MK-3 to commit crimes, and even though the CSA knew about this, they didn't have the resources to resolve the situation.; Later, the SHRA passed, and the Thunderbolts registered in the Initiative. The CSA convinced the Thunderbolts to track down and apprehend the Beetles, and later they were taken to the Folding Castle. There, they were brainwashed with dreams promoting Thunderbolts service. The Beetles were drafted into Operation: Justice Like Lightning (an army of criminals into government service supervised and trained by the Thunderbolts, overseen by Dallas Riordan and Henry Gyrich). Also, they and the rest of the recruits were fitted with a subdernal phase-shift locator that teleported them to a holding facility if they disobeyed. Showing great command of the cybernetic systems, they soon apprehended super-villains like Porcupine and Eel. Since then, the Thunderbolts have dissolved and the Initiative has disbanded.

+Trivia: Black Cat's secret identity was already known to Detective Jean DeWolff, making it likely she kept it a secret as a favor to Spider-Man.
+History:
+===The Motivation===; While controlling the body of Spider-Man, Doctor Octopus brutally defeated Black Cat. When the Police arrested her, she lost her secret identify, her stolen possessions, and her allies. Imprisoned in Conway Penitentiary, she realized than in order to regain all that she had lost, she must have revenge on Spider-Man.; ===Beginnings===; After escaping from prison, Black Cat began stalking the arachnid hero, whose body was back in the control of Peter Parker. During one of her stalkings, she noticed that Parker Industries was hunting Electro down to depower him. Knowing that he too was humiliated by Spider-Man (again while Octavius was in control), she recruited Max onto her side. She used him as an enforcer to establish some dominance over the underworld. In the process, she defeated Maggia mob boss Eel, and secured an alliance with the Goblin Nation and the Inner Demons. She later tried to recruit other villains, but they declined because of her affiliation to Electro. Black Cat then thwarted Parker Industries's plan to create a prison for super villains by trying to kill Electro, but was stopped by Spider-Man and Silk. After said event, the criminals joined Black Cat's criminal army since she cut ties with Dillon.; Now established as a major player in the underworld, Felicia bought the Bar with No Name and, later, allied herself with Hammerhead to take down the new Spider-Man, which marked the beginning of a formal partnership, as Hammerhead eventually became Black Cat's muscle and second in command. Hardy additionally hired Scorpion on her side as a part-time enforcer. For a short while, Black Cat even hired a man named Lee Price after he survived a shootout at a black market sale that also involved Tombstone's Gang, without knowing that Price was secretly the new Venom.; ===Downfall===; After losing the Venom symbiote to its former owner Eddie Brock, Lee Price stole the Mania Symbiote from Andi Benton and used it to establish a criminal gang. He forced pieces of the symbiote into the faces of small-time criminals to control their minds, and formed his Inklings. After obtaining a measurable amount of manpower, Lee attacked Black Cat's operations and used the Mania symbiote to take control of her subordinates and Felicia herself. Since Black Cat's gang had been invited for the very first time to the gathering of the five largest crime families in the world, Lee seized Black Cat's operations so to make his way into the gathering and take control of the other families.; Felicia managed to free herself from Maniac's influence and joined forces with Spider-Man, Venom, Anti-Venom and Benton to stop him. Unfortunately for her, once the dust settled following Price's defeat, Felicia had lost her gang and her clout.

+First appearance: Big Hero 6 (film)
+Created by: Don Hall; Jordan Roberts; Robert L. Baird; Dan Gerson
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: This team formed by Hiro Hamada to find Tadashi's killer.
+Reality: Earth-14123
+Transportation: Baymax
+Notes: The team formed sometime in spring 2032.
+History:
+After discovering that the death of his brother Tadashi was no accident, Hiro Hamada set out to discover the identity of the person responsible for the explosion which took Tadashi's life, and who had also stolen and mass-produced Hiro's swarm of microbots.; Having barely escaped from a chase against the villain, Yokai, Hiro decided to upgrade himself and his friends into superheroes to find him, using technology that they had previously worked with at San Fransokyo's Institute of Technology.; Using Baymax's upgraded sensors, Hiro found Yokai's location, in a remote abandoned island. Big Hero 6 arrived to the place, which contained an abandoned laboratory. They encountered a ravaged device, which they discovered was a set of two dimensional portals through some archived footage from vigilance cameras found in the laboratory's computers. The portals were a military project of Alistair Krei, which had malfunctioned during demonstration, almost swallowing the entire complex shortly after Abigail Callaghan was lost following her entrance into one of the portals, as they had become unstable and collapsed. This video led them to the assumption that Krei was Yokai, who was attempting to rebuild his portal with the stolen microbots, a technology that Hiro had previously refused to sell to him during a scientific expo.; As soon as they found this footage, Yokai attacked the team with the microbots, incapacitating Baymax after throwing him into rubble. The first attempt of the Big Hero 6 at fighting the villain resulted in failure, as each of the member's attempts at attacking Yokai resulted in them accidentally hitting one of their own. When Baymax jumped back into the fight, he and Hiro successfully removed Yokai's mask, which had the neurotransmitter required to control the microbots incorporated into it. The identity of Yokai was revealed to be that of Professor Robert Callaghan, one of the major scientists at San Fransokyo's Institute of Technology, and Tadashi's mentor.; Having discovered that Callaghan was the person whose actions ended up causing Tadashi's death, and aggravating the situation as Tadashi had lost his life while trying to save Callaghan from the explosion he had caused on purpose to cover the theft of the microbots, Hiro deactivated Baymax's medical assistant programming, leaving only his combat mode, no longer equipped with the safeguard that prevented him from hurting people. Baymax violently pursued Callaghan, who managed to dodge Baymax's attack with its rocket-fist by inches. Hiro's revenge was thwarted by his teammates, who tried to contain Baymax until Honey Lemon recovered the chip with Baymax's programming for medical assistance and placed it back into the robot, returning it back to normal. During the commotion, Callaghan recovered his kabuki mask (and thus the neurotransmitter) and escaped.; After scolding his teammates for letting Callaghan escape alive, Hiro left them on the island and returned to his home with Baymax. As he was repairing Baymax's sensors, Hiro attempted to remove its program for medical assistance once again, but Baymax did not allow him to, claiming that it was not what Tadashi would have wanted. After showing Hiro recordings of Tadashi's numerous attempts at programming Baymax during its creation, Hiro felt repentant for his behavior. The rest of the Big Hero 6 soon showed up, having gotten out of the island with the help of Fred's butler Healthcliff via helicopter. They forgave Hiro's actions, and promised him to capture Callaghan. Honey Lemon also showed Hiro additional footage that she had retrieved from the laboratory's computers, showing that the test subject seemingly killed by the portal had been Callaghan's daughter Abigail, explaining his motivation.; The next day, Yokai stormed the inauguration of the opening of an institute by Krei, subduing him with the microbots, and using the swarm to bring the pieces of one of the rebuilt portals and assemble it over Krei's institute. As soon as it was activated, the portal started slowly swallowing the institute, as Callaghan wanted Krei to know how it felt to lose everything. The Big Hero 6 appeared before Callaghan, and tried to stop him. However, the team was easily overpowered by the swarm of microbots. After noticing that the microbots could also be swallowed by the portal, Hiro motivated his teammates to continue fighting, and focus on attacking the swarm, as each of the microbots that were separated from the rest would soon be absorbed by the portal before reassembling. Without him realizing it until it was too late, Callaghan was with only the two piles of microbots which were supporting him, which were restraining Baymax and Hiro, and the ones holding the portal. With no more microbots for Callaghan to use, Baymax and Hiro broke free, and removed Callaghan's mask and neurotransmitter, causing the remaining of the swarm to break down, causing the portal to fall to the ground. However, the portal did not deactivate, and slowly started to become unstable, still swallowing anything it could.; The Big Hero 6 decided to escape with Krei and the apprehended Callaghan, but Baymax detected a life form from inside the portal. Hiro and Baymax entered it, and found themselves in some kind of dimension where everything swallowed by the portal floated around. There, they discovered the capsule used by Abigail to enter the portal, where its pilot was found in a state of hypersleep. With the capsule retrieved, Baymax and Hiro proceeded to escape. However, Baymax was hit by a piece of floating rubble, and had its propulsors damaged, unable to cross the portal. Baymax decided to sacrifice itself and propulse the capsule and Hiro with the use of its rocket-fist. Hiro refused to leave Baymax there, but as he had no other choice, was forced to do it anyway. Hiro went through the portal and returned shortly before the portal absorbed itself, stopping any further danger. Callaghan was taken into custody, while Abigail was woken up by paramedics and taken to a hospital.; Over the next few days, Hiro enrolled to San Fransokyo's Institute of Technology, using the cubicle that belonged to his brother, and taking with him the only remaining thing from Baymax: its rocket-fist. However, Hiro noticed that it was grasping something: Baymax's programming chip, which was later used by Hiro, who rebuilt Baymax's body and brought him back.; With Baymax back in action, the Big Hero 6 started patrolling the streets of San Fransokyo, having become its protectors.

+History:
+The "Beautiful Garbage" were the multicultural waste product from assorted black-program attempts to upload human consciousness into digitilized form, including upload-research projects from A.I.M. and Hydra. They were beta-test uploads that had been classified as disposable trial runs. However, they escaped disposal and deletion.; These A.I.s and one of them specifically, Absynthe, targeted Tony Stark for his "accelerationware," technology capable of making programs achieve incredible speeds. During Stark's test run with his new Iron Man Armor, the Beautiful Garbage mechas attacked him with a rail gun, which perfored his suit and incapacitated Stark. The new Iron Man's fail safe program kicked in, and a digitalized version of Stark's mind, "Tony Stark 2.0" was uploaded into the suit. Via deposit by the rail gun round that penetrated the suit, Absynthe infiltrated its operating code.; A group of Beautiful Garbage later arrived to the Assault Carrier of the Capekillers, using Iron Man 2.0 as a bait to penetrate the Carrier, in order to manually hack into the Capekillers' systems and access to some of the highest-yield hardware on the planet.; In order to confront the mechas, Iron Man 2.0 had to jack up his cognitive clockspeed, and recoded his "accelerationware" software. Now moving at incredible speeds, Iron Man 2.0 was able to defeat almost every one of the mechas, up until the remaining two started moving at even higher speeds. Absynthe had covertly uploaded Tony 2.0's accelerationware into the Beautiful Garbage, which ran much faster on their processors' chipsets. However, Tony wrote additional functions into the accelerationware, which turned the remaining Beautiful Garbage into software-parasitized puppets. Tony 2.0 made the mechs destroy each other.

+Trivia: The Black Dahlias take their name from an infamous Los Angeles murder case of in the late 1940s, the Black Dahlia case, which has over time been turned into a sort of morality tale about the dangers that Los Angeles supposedly poses to naive young women.
+History:
+According to former member Mulholland Black, the Black Dahlias are a girl gang formed with the stated intention of "taking back the streets" for women and girls. This was accomplished primarily through beating up and humiliating those who prey on young women - namely pimps and drug dealers. During Mulholland's time with them, they were like "guardian angels" who, though deathly serious about cleaning up the streets, avoided using lethal tactics. Sometime after joining, Mulholland became the girlfriend of the leader, Cut. However, she was caught in bed with teammate Lisa, and was promptly kicked out.; More recently, the Black Dahlias became affiliated with the organization called S.H.A.D.O.W., which hired them to kill members of the Order and provided them with aggregates of the powers and equipment possessed by the government-sanctioned team. They have already killed one former member, Carlos Araujo Carvalho, attempted to kill Calamity, and assaulted Mulholland Black, injecting her with S.P.I.N. nanobots.

If Jakarra reached the Vibranium Mound, his sound-generating powers would resonate with the entire deposit and start a chain reaction through the Earth's crust, destroying the planet. Their only hope was to inject Jakarra with an anti-sonic toxin developed by Itobo. Black Panther managed to administer the injection just as the reaction in the Vibranium Mound began. Jakarra seemingly exploded and the mound settled peacefully once more, though T'Challa remained buried beneath it.

R'lyeh was created by H.P. Lovecraft in "Call of Cthulhu" (Weird Tales; June, 1928).; It is possible that the Black Gods of R'lyeh, instead of being a subset of the Great or Lesser Old Ones, were originally meant simply as a synonyms for the Great Old Ones, but were considered a proper group by the Official Handbooks writer after being invoked alongside the Old Ones and other entities in "The Web Tightens" (Conan the Barbarian Vol 1 141; Robert E.

+Trivia: R'lyeh was originally wrote with a "l" minuscule letter.

+Trivia: According to Corvus Glaive, he and the other generals of Thanos prefer to be called the Black Order, as it's less foreboding than Cull Obsidian.
+History:
+The first servant of Thanos to be made a member of the dreadful Black Order was his favorite one, Corvus Glaive. He was later joined by the Butcher Squadron survivors Ebony Maw, Proxima Midnight and Thanos' adopted daughter Gamora, though she later left before his brother Black Dwarf and Supergiant joined as well. At some point, the Black Order served Thanos against Ego the Living Planet, whose very existence was an offense to Death, and thus to Thanos as well. Their battle ultimately ended in a stalemate.; ===Infinity===; Years later, after learning the Avengers left the Earth unguarded to battle the Builders in space, Thanos assembled his Black Order once more to invade the planet. By analyzing the memories of an Outrider previously sent to Earth to uncover its secrets, Thanos learned that most of the Infinity Gems were lost by the Illuminati, so he sent the Black Order after the remaining one: the Time Gem.; The Black Order landed in different points of the world in order to confront the Illuminati and discover the Time Gem's location. In New York City, Ebony Maw was able to take control of Doctor Strange, making him help to find what Thanos was seeking. In Wakanda, Black Dwarf and his army were defeated by the Black Panther. In Atlantis, Proxima Midnight convinced Namor to tell her where the Time Gem was. At the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning, Corvus Glaive and Supergiant faced the X-Men but left upon realizing there was no Infinity Gem there.; Namor told Proxima Midnight that the Time Gem was in Wakanda, prompting the Black Order to quickly seize the country at a later point. In the Necropolis, they found the Illuminati's antimatter bombs. Meanwhile, Ebony Maw located the other thing Thanos was looking for on Earth: his son, Thane. The Black Order (minus Supergiant) departed to Greenland, Ebony Maw's location, for Thanos to kill his son. Following his defeat at the hands of the Black Panther, Black Dwarf was left to guard The Peak as it was discovered the Avengers were returning to Earth.; Black Dwarf was killed when the Avengers regained control over The Peak; Supergiant was killed when the antimatter bombs she activated were transported along with her by Lockjaw, an Inhuman dog ally of the Illuminati, to a distant uninhabited planet; Corvus Glaive was killed by Hyperion when the Avengers arrived in Greenland in order to confront Thanos; and finally, Ebony Maw double-crossed Thanos and freed Thane to let him fight his father, prompting Thane to trap Thanos, Proxima Midnight, and Corvus' Glaive in an amber construct which left them in a state of "living death." They were secretly kept under the custody of the Illuminati until one of its members, Namor, released all of the Illuminati's prisoners, including Thanos, a resurrected Corvus Glaive, and Proxima Midnight. Together as the Cabal, they aided Namor in countering the incursions.; ===Quest for Mjolnir===; After doing away with Corvus Glaive's incarnation of the Black Order, Thanos assembled his second Black Order with Proxima Midnight and fellow Cabal member Black Swan. While imprisoned below the Triskelion, Thanos was approached by Hela. She wanted his support and in exchange would give him a Mjolnir from an alternate reality as tribute. Thanos accepted the deal, and sent Proxima and Black Swan to aid Hela in retrieving the hammer from the Collector's ship. After the Black Order was forced to return empty-handed, Hela killed Proxima Midnight to prove her power to Thanos.; ===The Challenger's Contest===; In preparation for contest against the Grandmaster, the Challenger reformed the Black Order, bringing back its deceased members in the process. They were set to face the Grandmaster's own team, the Lethal Legion, as part of a competition that took place on Earth. As soon as the competing teams were teleported to the battleground to survey it, they broke into battle. Their masters cut their fight short since the contest hadn't started yet. Before the first round, the Black Order blew up the Avengers Mansion while the entire team was assembled there to prevent the heroes from becoming an obstacle. The heroes survived, as they were teleported to safety at the nick of time by Voyager.; Once the game started, both teams were divided in half to confront each other for the possession of the two Pyramoids placed by their masters. Supergiant, Black Dwarf and Black Swan were pitted against the Blood Brothers, Mentacle and Metal Master in Rome, while Ebony Maw, Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive confronted Captain Glory, Drall and Ferene the Other in Cusco. Both confrontations were intercepted by the Avengers. The Black Order scored a point when Black Dwarf secured the Pyramoid in Rome, though he was teleported to the Grandmaster's Cosmic Game Room in such a manner it seemed like he had been disintegrated. The round ended after the Pyramoid in Cusco was touched by the Avenger Human Torch, so both competing teams left to regroup and prepare.; For the second round, the Black Order traveled to Antarctica to seize one of the two new Pyramoids. They were met by the Avengers and outpowered. Ebony Maw was knocked out by Voyager, Corvus Glaive was killed by Rogue and Supergiant was ambushed and killed through dissipation by the Lethal Legion's Ferene. These loses forced the only remaining members of the Black Order on their feet, Proxima Midnight and Black Swan, to retreat while Ferene claimed the Pyramoid. During the contest's final round, the last Pyramoid was teleported from its designated location to the Avengers Auxiliary Headquarters by the Grandmaster's secret agent, Voyager. Proxima Midnight and Black Swan followed the Challenger's own ace in the hole, the Hulk, to the Pyramoid's new location, but were defeated by the heroes left in the wake of Hulk's rampage.; ===The Grandmaster's Wager===; Following the victory of the Avengers, the Black Order minus Supergiant regrouped and escaped to the planet Angargal, where they were approached by the Grandmaster with an offer: to bring down the Sinnarian Empire by destabilizing the worlds under its rule. Thinking this would be a worthy challenge, the Black Order accepted. They were apprehended days after initiating their mission and put in jail to await their execution. The Resistance later broke the Black Order out of prison because of their shared goal and informed them about the Bow of Gabriel, a cosmic weapon of the empire capable of bringing entire planets to heel in a matter of hours. Wanting to restore the Black Quadrant to its former glory and expand its reach to the entire universe, the Black Order started planning a way to steal the weapon instead of destroying it like the Resistance wanted.; After the location of the rebel base was compromised by a spy, the rebel leader Peacemaker sent the Black Order to intercept a ship transporting an ultra-rare metal called Onducium, which was needed to forge the arrows for the bow. Despite the attack of a mind-controlled Nova, they were able to secure the metal. Maw revealed himself to be the spy by disappearing soon after revealing the location of the new rebel base to Emperor Attican, resulting in the capture of Peacemaker. Corvus then became the Resistance's new leader and launched an attack on the empire. Meanwhile, Maw manipulated Attican into lowering Sinnar's defenses, giving him the opportunity to steal the bow and reunite with the rest of his team. Corvus used the bow to turn everyone present, except for the Black Order, into twisted monsters. With their task complete, the Grandmaster arrived and explained he had bet with the emperor that his empire based on fear could be brought down by only five individuals. Having finally won his bet, he claimed the bow and left the Black Order to their next business.; ===The Final Gauntlet===; Later, the Black Order was recruited by the Asgardian death goddess Hela to recover the body of Thanos so she could resurrect him. Thanos' body was in the possession of Thanos' Starfox who brought it with him to a meeting attended by major figures from across the universe to discuss Thanos' will. The group crashed the meeting using the space station Knowhere and a horde of Outriders. They successfully retrieved Thanos' body and dealt with the meeting's attendees by trapping them in an artificial rip in space. However, Thanos' head was missing, which prevented Hela from resurrecting him until it was recovered.; Hela and the Black Order's search for Thanos' head first took them to the Collector. After Hela threatened the Collector, he directed her to the Negative Zone where the head was in the possession of Annihilus. When confronted by Hela and the Black Order, Annihilus attacked them, but Hela chopped off his hand and threatened him, forcing him to hand over the head.; When the Dark Guardians captured Gamora for believing that she was Thanos' means of resurrection, Hela and the Black Order took them out to prevent her execution. However, Hela revealed that she and Thanos had planned for his resurrection for a while and that Gamora wasn't to be Thanos' vessel, Starfox was. After that, Thanos' consciousness took over Starfox's body and left with Hela and the Black Order for Knowhere, where his restored body was being kept for his resurrection.; To stop Thanos' resurrection, the Guardians and remaining Dark Guardians attacked Knowhere. Gladiator, Beta Ray Bill, Nova, and Captain Marvel (Phyla-Vell) subdued the Black Order while Gamora killed Starfox to stop Thanos' resurrection, but Thanos came back with a broken mind. Then Thanos was hit by a missile fired by Hela that generated a black hole, sucking up the two partners and all of Knowhere. The Guardians and Dark Guardians were able to escape.; ===Star===; Having somehow escaped the black hole, the Black Order went into hiding on Earth to reflect on independence, while realising they have become a family. Disguised as humans, they took up residence on East Village. While Corvus was away, Proxima Midnight ended up discovering the Reality Stone bonded to Ripley Ryan, a former reporter who attempted to steal the powers of Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers), and alerted her teammates about it. Despite Black Swan not wanting to have anything to do with an Infinity Stone, it was ultimately decided that they would go after the Reality Stone when Corvus returned.; Tired of being a slave to the Infinity Stones or to those who wield them, Black Swan got to Ripley first and subdued her. She forced Ripley to accept a mysterious device of hers and to use the Reality Stone to speak and understand Swedish. She left as soon as Captain Marvel arrived, promising to return later. When the Black Order attacked them again Star tried to use the device, but she accidentally used it on Corvus trapping him inside it. After Scarlet Witch arrived Star used her powers to communicate with the Black Order and arranged a bargain, she would give back Corvus to them and in turn they would let her go. They agreed and after Star got rid of the Scarlet Witch and Captain Marvel gave the trapped Corvus back to them before she left.; ===Phoenix===; At some point, Supergiant returned to life and the Black Swan left the group. The Black Order again came to serve Thanos and attempted to find a new powerful army for him to command. They began kidnapping aliens from Gameworld to provide the bodies for an Asgardian zombie army, but they were thwarted by Phoenix (Jean Grey) and Corsair.; Thanks to his alliance with the Dark God Perrikus, Thanos joined the Galactic Council and finally gained an army to fight the Phoenix. The Black Order assisted him in his crusade against the Phoenix, but to little success due to her overwhelming power and her allies. One such ally, Rocket Raccoon tricked the Black Order to reveal Thanos' secret hideout by sending a false distress call. They unintentionally led Phoenix and her allies to Thanos, at which point a battle ensued between the two sides. The battle came to and end when Perrikus' apprentice, Adani, got hold of a fraction of the Phoenix Force, causing Jean to be teleported away, while a defeated Thanos retreated with his Black Order.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Elite Nazi commandos
+Reality: Earth-74924
+Base of operations: Nazi Germany; Klaus Kruptmann's home, near Albuquerque, New Mexico
+Affiliation: Nazi Germany
+Weapons: (per person) Schmeisser MP40 submachine gun; two fragmentation grenades; one smoke grenade; one assault knife
+Transportation: Orphu Time Machine
+Trivia: "Blautot" is a fusion of two German words meaning "blue" and "dead" (the adjective form of death). However, as they were labelled "Blue Death Commandos", with "death" being a noun, the name of the unit in proper German would be "Blautod-Kommandos".; Plot hole: There were three Blautot units sent through time: The 5718 was lost
+History:
+The Blautot Commandos were an elite commando team in Nazi Germany, under the orders of the Red Skull during the first years of World War Two. It was so secret that most people were absolutely unaware of their existence.; In 1943, Nazi scientist Baron Heinrich Zemo repaired an alien Orphu Time Machine and built two more operative time machines with the help of other scientists including Klaus Kruptmann. The Red Skull decided then to send three elite commando units to pre-determined points in the future, where they could find futuristic weapons to use against the allies. The Blautot Commandos were chosen for this mission.; Three twelve-person teams were sent. One was sent to year 5718, and never heard again. Another one was sent to 2146 and returned with an almost-impervious airborne attack vehicle that could level small towns. The machine was sent to Baron Blood's Castle Grachtt, in Romania, where Zemo would analyze it and get it ready for an attack on Italy. The Blautot team was not sent to Romania as security force.; The third team, sent to the sewers of San Diego in 1989, was met by Dr. Kruptmann, who was waiting for them. Kruptmann was a loyal Nazi, although he pretended to be working for the Americans, and offered the Blautots his own home to use as HQ. He also gave them a microscanner to enter a secret lab in Albuquerque, where they could steal hulking tank-like robot Cavalier. Kruptmann could gave all this because he worked in this lab, in a different project.; Kruptmann did not know that lab officer Colonel Fury had called some super heroes to test the Cavalier. The Blautot tried to capture the Cavalier during the test, but they were defeated by the testers.; The Blautot insignia was not recognized - even Fury had never seen it. The Blautots' training allowed them to resist the questioning saying nothing but their names and numbers - which could not be traced; those names and numbers did not exist in any army in the world, not even beyond the Iron Curtain. However, two hints gave away all the scheme:; Firstly, the insignia did appear in a book: World War Two Inside and Out: All the People, All the Places, and All the Events, by Hamilton Crane, explained that the elite Blautot Commandos mysteriously disappeared in 1943 (Fury then recognized that he had heard of them during the war). Besides, the microscanner was traced to Kruptmann, which led to the scientist's capture, then to the finding of the time ship, and eventually to a mission in 1943 to stop the Nazi scheme.

Their leader, John Walker and Lemar Hoskins were hand-picked by the government to be the "New" Captain America and Bucky. They later assumed the name USAgent and Battlestar respectively.; Hector Lennox and Jerome Johnson were largely ignored by the new Captain America and Bucky. The two took revenge by assuming the costumed identity of "Left-Winger" and "Right-Winger" respectively. They first stole Guardsman Armor and battled Walker and Hoskins and later publicly revealed John Walker's identity during a press conference Walker was holding. As a result, the Watchdogs tracked down and murdered Walker's parents in Georgia. Outraged, Walker took revenge by badly beating Lennox and Walker. He then tied their bodies together and ignited them into an incendiary blaze.; Some time later, Johnson and Lennox committed suicide.

He made short work of both groups. When the battle was over, his spider-sense was still ringing. Suddenly, the Hobgoblin came crashing through the wall. Apparently, the Blue Boys were fighting with members of the Rose's gang. One of the Rose's gambling operations was hit by the Blue Boys. The Rose told his men to contact the Hobgoblin to deal with the Blue Boys.; On the Lowest East Side, the Blue Boys were smashing up another one of the Rose's operations. During the ensuing battle, two of the Blue Boys got the drop on the wall-crawler. He pointed out the fact that the wall-crawler was letting the two members of the Blue Boys bleed out in order to chase the Punisher. Spider-Man doubled back to the arcade and did what he could for the two injured crooks.; The Hobgoblin and Jack O'Lantern attacked the bowling alley who warned the leaders of the Blue Boys gang that they had come in advance as security, warning the rival gang that they would be killed at the first sign of treachery.

+Equipment: Body armour; UV-blocking stealth suits.
+Weapons: Various melee combat weapons; assault rifles with Beta-C magazines; UV-light mounted shotguns; UV flashbang grenades (Blade himself carries a more extensive arsenal of weaponry)
+History:
+The Bloodpack was a team of vampire shock troops operating out of Prague. They were assembled with one specific goal in mind; To eliminate their deadliest enemy, Blade. The Bloodpack trained for more than two years on how to hunt down and defeat Blade, but that mission was unrealised when they were tasked to ally with him instead. At the request of the overlord of the Vampire Nation, Eli Damaskinos, Blade was placed in command of the Bloodpack so that he could help them route out and exterminate an even larger threat; Reapers.; The reapers were an artificially created offshoot strain of vampire. They were faster, stronger and gained nourishment from feeding off the blood of other vampires as well as humans. The Bloodpack members were not pleased with having to share information with their sworn enemy. One member, Reinhardt, took great exception to Blade's presence, and voiced his opinion to him with a racist remark. Blade responded by implanting a remote controlled mini-bomb onto the back of Reinhardt's head. If his poor attitude persisted, Blade had no reservations about detonating the device.; The Bloodpack's first mission was to ferret out suspected Reaper activity at a vampire safe house called the House of Pain. While exploring the catacombs and adjacent dance hall of the building, the hunters quickly discovered that they were now the hunted. Blade faced off against Jared Nomak - the progenitor of the Reaper Strain. Their battle ended in a stalemate and Nomak managed to escape. Reinhardt and his colleague Chupa swept through the nightclub arena, blasting Reapers with UV-lamps and high-powered machine guns. Some of the Bloodpack members were not so lucky however. Lighthammer faced off against a Reaper in an unfurnished upper room, and although he survived the initial encounter, he was nonetheless infected with the Reaper Strain. Another Bloodpack member, Priest, met his end when he too was infected by a reaper's bite. Blade, Reinhardt and Chupa put Priest out of his misery just as the transformation began to take effect.; The Bloodpack's second encounter with the reapers took place in the sewer tunnels beneath Prague. Tracking a reaper from the House of Pain attack, the group split up to search the tunnels. Chupa and Reinhardt, displeased about their truce with Blade and still angered by the loss of Priest, turned on Whistler. Whistler, having dropped a pheromone device, escaped while reapers converged on Chupa. He then detonated a UV flashbang grenade that wiped out all vampires in the chamber, including Chupa.; By this point, Lighthammer's transformation was nearing completion and he killed Snowman with a surprise attack, before turning on his former lover, Verlaine. Her flight through the sewers ended when she climbed up a ladder that led to the surface and threw open the manhole cover in broad daylight. Sunlight beamed in, destroying them both.; Asad, Nyssa and Blade were ambushed by more reapers. Asad succumbed to the assault, although Blade won free and was able to detonate a crate of UV grenades, destroying the amassed reapers. Nyssa survived by shielding herself from the blast and Reinhardt, who was fast approaching, was severely seared by the light. With the reapers gone, forces loyal to Eli Damaskinos arrived to deal with the survivors. Blade was then captured and taken with the rest to Damaskinos' stronghold.; The battle in the sewers marked the end of the Bloodpack as a group, however several of its former members survived the encounter. Reinhardt later attacked Blade at the Damaskinos stronghold and was rewarded for this aggression by being sliced in half. Nyssa succumbed to a bite from her brother, Nomak, and ultimately chose to die a vampire, watching the sun rise, rather than be consumed by the Reaper Strain. Blade lived on to confront Nomak and continue his vendetta against the Vampire Nation.

They attempted to escape, but the daughter, Lana, was separated from her mother, and as their ability to fire blasts from their hands only worked when they were next to each other, it made them powerless. Lana was caught by Spider-Man and then arrested by the NYPD, while her mother, Lori, remained on the loose.; The Bombshells were later arrested again, this time both of them, in part due to the intervention of the Human Torch and Spider-Woman. The courts deemed Lori as the cause for Lana's criminal behavior, and because she was a minor, Lana was released into the custody of her grandmother, while Lori was sent to jail.

+The Black Powers were all African-American patients at the Clinic for Paranormal Research in Wisconsin. Their leader Indigo was incensed at racism within the Clinic and encouraged other African-American patients to leave their assigned therapy groups and form their own, the Black Powers. She soon recruited Charlotte Beck, who wanted to leave her own therapy group after she was rejected by a white fellow group member Randy O'Brien.; Thanks to Indigo's confrontational attitude, the Black Powers soon clashed with other patients, beating up O'Brien (until he was saved by one of the only African-American patients not to join them, Jeff Walters), fighting with a teenage splinter group the DDTeens and being targeted by the racists Freefall and Tangler. Freefall and Tangler murdered two of the Black Powers, Chill and Blindside, and attempted to murder a third, Squirm. During a riot that broke out between the patients, Indigo and Bazooka attacked Freefall and Tangler. Charlotte Beck left the Black Powers to rejoin her old therapy group, and Squirm joined the DDTeens, both of them leaving the Clinic.; Indigo and Bazooka (who had started a relationship) were the only remaining members of the Black Powers when the Clinic was raided by the police because of some unreported deaths at the Clinic. The two of them fought the police and Indigo was shot in the stomach, killing her. After the Clinic was shut down, Bazooka was drafted into the army with the other male paranormals.

They operated out of the town of Sagebrush, Texas and were led by Mr. Spruce the owner of Spruce's Outfitting Store, however none of the gang members knew the true identity of their leader. They robbed local stores in the region and terrorized the locals. In order to avoid suspicion, Spruce had his gang rob his own store. His undoing came from having his men rob the place while cowboy Tex Taylor was in town and shopping in the store. Although Tex was unable to stop the Black Raiders from robbing the cash, he agreed to local jewellery dealer Miss Farrel that he would guard her store, the next likely target as she was to ship $10,000 worth of diamonds to Pecos City.; That night, Tex stood guard and the Black Raiders came to rob the store. Although Tex managed to gun down some of the gang members, their leader (Spruce in disguise) knocked the hero out with a single punch and stole the jewels and fled. While most of the gang was rounded up by the sheriff they were unable to tell him who the identity of their leader was. Tex's face was wounded by the ring worn by the leader and seeing the "s" shaped mark on his face knew who it was. When he confronted Spruce, the crooked shop owner tried to gun the cowpoke down but Tex was faster and easily knocked Spruce out with a left hook and turned him over to the authorities.; The fate of Spruce and the surviving members of his gang are unknown, but it's unlikely they reformed again.

They operated out of the Library of Worlds, a secret library created by the Beyonders themselves which allowed the Swans and Rabum Alal to hide and traverse the Multiverse.; Eventually, Doom realized that killing Molecule Men was not going to avert the Multiverse's destruction. He changed tactics without informing the Swans, covertly collecting Molecule Men instead of killing them. Meanwhile, a group of Black Swans, including Yabbat Ummon Tarru, rebelled against Doom's original path after learning his face. Searching a different path, they destroyed other Earths during incursions (collision events between realities secretly caused by the Molecule Men's deaths) as offerings to Rabum Alal and to buy more time for other universes, for this stopped those incursions.; When the Black Priests, led by Doctor Strange, attacked the Library of Worlds, the Black Swans destroyed all the invaders aside from Strange. Doom revealed himself as Rabum Alal to Strange, clarifying to the latter that he was trying to save the Multiverse from the Beyonders. Doom, Strange, and the Molecule Man left the Library of Worlds with the Molecule Men they had collected to confront the Beyonders; they stole the Beyonders' power and used it to create Battleworld.; clear; ===G.O.D.S.===; Following the restoration of the Multiverse into the Eighth Cosmos, the Library of Worlds became public and the Swans were removed from it as punishment for their acts during the incursion crisis. With the threat of the Beyonders and the incursions neutralized, the Swans were also abandoned by their master Doom, as they had served their purpose.; Searching for a new purpose, the Swans disguised themselves as human women and ran an all-female clinic while raising the next generation of Swans. Now misandrists, they lured men into the clinic to have them write down what they saw in a special egg. They sacrificed these men and collected the letters, but they were unable to read them. When Dimitri Krakov entered the clinic, hoping to place his device in it, they captured him. Since Wyn, the Avatar of The-Powers-That-Be, was a male magic user, he was not allowed inside, so he sent Mia DiMaria to get him back. The Swans agreed to trade Dimitri for having Mia read the letters; she informed them that the message was not complete and they were missing 62 letters. Wyn left the Swans with a warning.; A few years after Wyn and the Doctor Strange ended their war with the In-Betweener, the Swans received the final word of their message, finding a new purpose in serving the In-Betweener. Fifty years after the last Babylon Event, a bevy of Swans approached the In-Betweener and a time displaced Wyn from the future, showing him that his self during that time was being tortured by the In-Betweener.; ==Religion==; The Black Swans worshipped Rabum Alal, who was secretly Doctor Doom. While Doom's real goal was to save the Multiverse, the Black Swans thought he was the "Great Destroyer" who was born when the early death of everything began. (In reality, Doom founded the Swans to help him kill the Molecule Men, and the act of killing the Molecule Men caused the incursions.) No Swan was allowed to see him, and any Swan who wished to serve him directly had to remove their own eyes.; In an incursion, two Earths collide, and if they do, both realities are destroyed. If one of the Earths is destroyed, the incursion stops. The Swans saw the sacrificing of Earths as "offerings" to Rabum Alal; stopping an incursion was his "mercy" and the antimatter injectors used to destroy Earths was his "gift." To the Swans, this was "The Wheel," for Earths must continuously destroy other Earths until their own inevitable demise. Yabbat Ummon Tarru and her group went to Earths to help them destroy other Earths so "that the many may live a season longer."; The Swans practiced human sacrifice.; ==Powers==; Yabbat Ummon Tarru possesses powers such as energy blasts, super strength, and telepathy. She was born on Earth and seems to be human. Other Black Swans have displayed similar abilities, regardless of their species. They are powerful enough to contend with the Black Priests.; On Earth, the non-humanoid Black Swans are able to disguise themselves as humans.

+Created by: Jonathan Hickman; Steve Epting
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Multiverse
+Base of operations: Mobile; Temple of the Black Priests, Nothing Space of Destroyed Universes
+Equipment: Helmets of unknown function and utility. Magneto was able to lift them from their wearers. Non-Priests like the Norn could wear the Priests' helmet to use their magic, though the Priests themselves do not need their helmets to do it.; The Priests used "Mirrors" (magical equivalent of the Bridge) to view other realities.
+Notes: One of the Black Swans indicated that the Black Priests are not truly alive but are instead animated things that feign life.
+Trivia: The Priests' plan of stabilizing the Multiverse by destroying Earths is very similar to that of the Builders, another faction in the incursion crisis.; When the Black Priests destroy a world, the word they speak each and every time is "Life" as their goal is to save life, even if it means sacrificing Earths. Strange describes their work as "triage."; The Black Priests wrote a book about Yabbat Ummon Tarru, one of the Black Swans. That book currently opens a door to the Library of Worlds at Columbia University.; Screenings of Kaecilius' Of Black Priests and Black Swans could been seen at the Library of Worlds for a limited time. It described the backstory of Yabbat Ummon Tarru and the Black Priests' attack on Earth-1365.
+History:
+===Origin===; The Black Priests emerged around the same time as the Mapmakers; Rabum Alal would later speculate that they were a type of defensive reaction by the Multiverse. They were powerful beings who were major players in the Game of Worlds, destroying intrusive Earths to save both of the universes involved in an incursion, with the hope that destroying enough Earths could stabilize the Multiverse.; They destroyed Yabbat Ummon Tarru's Earth, causing her to join the Black Swans. At some point, they were thwarted by the Great Society of Earth-4290001. They attacked Earth-23099 and slaughtered its Illuminati; this was anonymously observed via the Bridge by the Illuminati of Earth-616, whom the Priests detected but could not identify.; clear; ===Time Runs Out===; Shortly after the actions of the Illuminati were made public, Doctor Strange joined the Black Priests' cause and became their leader ("the Eye"), having mastered the way in which they use their power.; Sunspot's Multiversal Avengers traveled across the Multiverse to find the source of its decay and found the base of the Black Priests. Both sides fought each other until Doctor Strange revealed himself and stopped the conflict. Back in his Sanctum, Stephen explained that the true intention of the Black Priests was to save the Multiverse, hoping that destroying enough Earths would stabilize the Multiverse and stop the early death of everything.; Shortly before their encounter, Strange had convinced his fellow Black Priests of the need to attack their enemies, the Ivory Kings and Rabum Alal, so he offered to help the Avengers face them. In order to get to the Ivory Kings, it was needed to get hold of one of their Mapmakers, and in order to get to Rabum Alal, it was needed to get hold of one of his Black Swans. The Avengers would go get one of them, while the Black Priests tried to get the other.; The Black Priests and Doctor Strange arrived at Earth-1903990 and used a key to invade the Library of Worlds, the Black Swans' headquarters. However, as they explored the Library, they were led to a chamber where there was a vacuum, making the Priests unable to speak their spells. The Black Priests were wiped out and Strange was taken captive by the Swans to see Rabum Alal, who turned out to be Doctor Doom. He and the Molecule Man clarified to Strange that they were also trying to save the Multiverse; the true enemies were the Beyonders (Ivory Kings).; As they were all on the same side, Doom and Strange teamed up against the Beyonders. Doom used a bomb made of countless Molecule Men to take out the Beyonders and steal their power, allowing him to salvage the Multiverse's remnants as Battleworld.; ==Powers==; The Black Priests have shown to possess high-level powers, presumed to be of magical origin by the Black Panther, though they rejected the distinction between science and magic:; Flight/Levitation; Multiple/Unfathomable Mind(s): According to Charles Xavier, they do not possess one mind but tens of thousands, and are consequently unfathomable, causing any telepath that attempts to read their minds great pain.; Telepathic/Magical/Extra-Sensorial Perception ? They were somehow able to see despite their lack of eyes.; Multiversal Witnessing/Mirrors Detection: They were able to sense that they were watched by a "Mirror", the Illuminati's Bridge, while not able to discern the identity of those watchers. They also indicated that they were able to sense the witnessing of Mapmakers and of Ivory Kings.; Matter Reorganization: According to Reed Richards, their resistance and reconstruction was due to "matter reorganization", making them virtually invincible, reforming after being shattered by Iron Man's Repulsors, and even by Captain Marvel's Power Cosmic and Black Bolt's voice.; "The Words:" The Black Priests are able to use language to distort reality. Each Black Priest is capable of saying one "word" (a symbol which means "something"). The addition of another symbol can change the meaning of that "something." Doctor Strange stated this method to be akin to replacement cipher. This way, the Black Priests can distort the reality in different ways, depending how many symbols are said and in which order. It was stated that some beings were able to resist to such words.; Energy Blasts; Pyrokinesis; Organic Disintegration Magneto, Captain Marvel, and Black Bolt were killed and were left as only damaged skeletons, wrecked costumes and a few human parts (feet and hands).; Cryokinesis; Paralysis; A Black Priest was also seen blasting a newly activated Inhuman, cutting his body into pieces.

Seeing this as their chance to finally free themselves from the Collector, the Captain America from World War II and Iron Man decided to act and attack the Collector. However, Cap only wanted to defeat him and escape Battlerealm whereas Iron Man wanted to seize control over the ISO-Sphere, thus ending the Contest of Champions once and for all, and use it to help people. Eventually, their disagreement became an open conflict, a Cosmic Civil War which polarized legions of Champions behind the opposite sides.; ===Cosmic Civil War: Endgame===; As many other times before, the Cosmic Civil War led Captain America and Iron Man to fight each other while also fighting against the Collector, who even in his weakened state was able to defeat them and encase them into Iso-8 Crystals again. After the battle, the Collector would always replace the factions' leaders by more fierce counterparts to keep the Cosmic Civil War happening. Upon learning this, Doctor Strange assembled a team of his own, composed of the defected members of both Blue and Iron Factions, to try to find the legendary Civil Warrior to end the war.; The Blue Faction disbanded when The Collector himself put an end to the Cosmic Civil War after the Civil Warrior defeated the leaders of both factions.

+History:
+The Brides of Set were a part of Deviant Priestlord Ghaur's scheme to bring the Elder God Set back to Earth.; Ghaur was trying to rebuild the Serpent Crown in a new, giant and supposedly indestructible version they would use to physically bring Set to Earth. To do so, and following Set's indication, he had allied with Llyra.; Ghaur marked seven superhuman women with the Mark of Set to place them under his control and named them the Brides of Set. Ghaur wanted them to mate with Set and provide him with sons, one bride for each of Set's heads. Ghaur did not notice that, although the Brides were under his control, they did everything in their power to resist him (for instance, when ordered to fight for him, they tried to lose).; When Ghaur's initial plan to destroy Atlantis did not bring Set to Earth, he sent Andromeda to recover a sphere with a part of Set's life essence from Neptune's Rage Altar. The Scarlet Witch would then use her power to alter probability on the sphere, freeing enough energy to make Set come. The operation was a success and Set came to Earth.; After Thor defeated Set, Ghaur and Llyra returned to Lemuria and tried to sacrifice the Seven Brides to bring power to the Serpent Crown and thus bring Set back. They sent their armies of Deviants and Lemurians to fight the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the Sub-Mariner, while Ghaur mentally probed the insides of the Crown. Doing so, Ghaur accidentally released the spirit of a previous holder of the Crown, King Naga of Lemuria, who also wanted the power of the Crown. Naga and Ghaur fought using their mental powers, and finally both them and Llyra vanished.; Finally freed from Ghaur's mind control, the former Brides of Set threw the Serpent Crown into a submarine cave.

The Brotherhood agreed to allow Mimic to join the team as they attempted to kidnap a wealthy mutant-hating Senator.; It may have been the Brotherhood's lack of loyalty to their newest member that allowed Pietro and the rest of the Brotherhood to abandon Mimic after they were defeated by the X-Men.

+History:
+With organized crime increasing in New York City, the FBI organized a strike force, mostly composed of mutants, to crack down on organized crime. The Brotherhood's only Sapien member was Frank Castle, dubbed by the media as "The Punisher" for his involvement in taking down a number of criminals that threatened his family, was recruited to show that they were not prejudiced against his kind. Though the Brotherhood brought down a number of crime syndicates, the one they couldn't get to was Luke Cage and the Avengers, a group of Sapiens fighting for their dying species' rights. The Brotherhood couldn't take any legal action against the Avengers and their foe in turn exposed Taskmaster as an enhanced Sapien and helped Castle, who was growing weary of the Brotherhood's brutality, escape to Wakanda. Therefore, Thunderbird made a pact with Kingpin, who was in alliance with the Avengers, to take down all Sapien groups in New York.; Eventually, the Brotherhood, along with the Kingpin's enforcers, made their move to take down all the Sapien groups simultaneously, before anyone else could run to Wakanda. But the Avengers managed to avoid arrest and paid Kingpin a visit. Afterwards, the Brotherhood began a purge of Sapien Town, not only to arrest any criminals, but to tear the place apart and convince all the Sapiens that their lines were hopeless. They soon came into conflict with the Avengers, who freed their fellow Sapiens from custody. Ultimately, the latter became victorious and restored the spirit of the Sapiens.; The next day, it became apparent to everyone that the Brotherhood was guilty of criminal activity. Magneto had the Brotherhood dissolved and reassigned, while having Thunderbird on paid leave pending investigation.

+History:
+===Early years===; The Brotherhood were a global network of terrorist cells acting against mutant persecution. It was founded by Marvin Hoffman, Orwell and Marshal, the latter quitting, disillusioned, and joining a government agency to take down the Brotherhood.; Led by Marvin Hoffman, who took the name of X, cells or active members were present in London, Moscow, Bogotá, France, United States of America, Bangkok, Rome, Tokyo (described as the pride of the movement), Brazil and North America. From the outside, Marshal tracked X and the Brotherhood, but Orwell prevented him from taking Hoffman down. This period lasted for five years.; ===Recruitment of Mikey Asher and Malon Reeves===; In New York, Mikey Asher was recruited by Fagin, Orwell, Oswald, and Marabeth, after a few meetings where the Brotherhood intervened in an upcoming shooting at Mikey's school and the demonstration of the government felony of Red Cross' staff operating mutant-screening.; At some point the London Cell, comprised of Bryson Bale, Bela, Fiona Dunn, and Clive Vickers was tasked to abduct and recruit Malon Reeves. Once done, they intended to take down her father, the secretly mutant Malcolm Reeves's empire down, because of his anti-mutant engagement. Mikey and Fagin were sent to join them. Still, they were followed by Marshall, who tortured and seemingly killed Fiona and Bela in order to get intel on X.; ===Fall of the Brotherhood===; The London Cell fell, as Mikey and Fagin were sent away by Bryson, the lattern then sacrificed himself to kill Malon's father. The last remaining member, Malon was then approached by Marshall, and was imprisoned with Mikey and Fagin, captured at some point by Marshal.; At the same time, the cells of Rome and Bangkok fell too, taken down by the Feds, and rumors started to spread that the Revolution was dying. During a rally in Philadelphia, a massive riot exploded between X's supporters and the police forces.; Later, the Brotherhood Cells of Tokyo, Brazil and North America were respectively attacked by X-Force, the X-Men and Cable. Charles Xavier himself was taking care of the Brotherhood moles.; Mikey, Fagin and Malon were released by Marshal to infiltrate the Brotherhood for him, after having them convinced that X was nothing more than a megalomaniac and selfish person. The three took down Dick/Jane Smythe, a metamorph member of the Brotherhood, on X's orders, as she was giving intel to an enemy faction (who was not Marshal's one, contrary to what X though). They then put her secretly in custody of Marshal's agency, and came back to X, presenting themselves as successful. The team then decide to hit X-Force, as they represented the alliance of some mutants to the system, and choose as target Doop, the heart of the team. This action was also in order to send a message to mutantkind: either they were with the Brotherhood, or they were against them.); ===Brotherhood Last Stand===; For this strike, the remaining Cells members were gathered in New York, where X-Force were acclaimed for their hit on the Tokyo Cell. A fight started between X-Force and the Brotherhood, during which the three traitors were seemingly killed by X-Force, trying to explain themselves. X had Marshall captured but this one revealed his plan, and so the last traitor, Orwell, revealed himself as well. By hearing Marshal's plan, who intended to rally to himself a healthier Brotherhood with him as the leader X, Hoffman fire his powers, but hit Orwell.; Mikey Asher, fatally wounded by X-Force, manage to create a trail with his explosive blood, and killed the two former friends and wannabe-leaders of the Revolution.; As the Orphan asked what was just happened there, U-Go-Girl answered it was the end of the Revolution, and after a silence, X-Force left the devastated street.

+Base of operations: Brotherhood Boarding House in Bayville
+Transportation: Lance Alvers' jeep
+Notes: The Brotherhood were been deeply re-imagined from their comic book counterparts. They now appear to act more like thugs.; The Brotherhood started out as a group of super-villains, later evolved into standard criminals, and eventually went to the point where they just didn't care, and often teamed up with the X-Men, remaining rivals, but not enemies.
+History:
+The Brotherhood, also known as the Brotherhood of Bayville, was a group of teenage mutant troublemakers, gathered by Mystique on Magneto's orders, primarily as a counterpoint to Charles Xavier's X-Men. They were mostly outcasts and misfits. They lived together in a boarding house in Bayville, owned by Mystique, and attended the local high school, Bayville High School, where Mystique (as Principal Darkhölme) was the principal.; The original team consisted of Lance Alvers (Avalanche), Todd Tolansky (Toad), Frederick Dukes (Blob) and Pietro Maximoff (Quicksilver). Of these, Mystique recruited all of them except Quicksilver, who was added to the team by Magneto (Quicksilver's father) to serve as a spy and make sure that Mystique toed the line. Rogue also joined briefly, although soon left them and joined the X-Men when she learned that Mystique had lied to her. When Magneto was gathering mutants to Asteroid M, Mystique was left behind. Feeling betrayed, she vowed to take her revenge on Magneto, and led the remnants of the X-Men and Brotherhood to stop him.; Following the destruction of Magneto's Asteroid M, Mystique disappeared, leaving the Brotherhood leaderless. They were temporarily joined by Boom Boom, formerly of the New Mutants, but she was forced out when Mystique returned and replaced by Wanda Maximoff (the Scarlet Witch), who shared Mystique's hatred for Magneto (as he had locked her up in a mental institution when she was a child). Mystique then infiltrated the X-Men disguised as Xavier (whom she had incapacitated elsewhere), and merged the X-Men with her Brotherhood. Mystique, still angry that Magneto betrayed her on Asteroid M, led the combined team of X-Men and Brotherhood to attack him. However, it was revealed that Quicksilver had still been a mole for Magneto and he defects, and Magneto's plan to reveal the existence of mutants to humanity is successful. At the same time, Blob was captured by the military along with several X-Men, and it was discovered that Mystique had been impersonating Xavier. Nevertheless, the X-Men and Brotherhood teamed up again temporarily to rescue their captured teammates, but when Mystique refused to reveal where she has hidden Xavier, Cyclops left her behind in military captivity while the others escaped, once again leaving the Brotherhood leaderless.; At this time, the new principal of Bayville High, Principal Kelly, invited the Brotherhood back to school in the hopes that their presence would turn the school board against mutants, allowing him to expel the X-Men. However, this plan failed and the Brotherhood were kicked out once again. Wanda soon departed for a while to take vengeance on Magneto and her brother Pietro. The Brotherhood were hired by Magneto, through his agent Gambit, to stop her. They managed to rescue Pietro (with some help from Kitty and Rogue), who was then appointed by Magneto to be their new leader. Wanda eventually re-joined the Brotherhood after Magneto used Mastermind to alter her memories so that she no longer hated him.; The Brotherhood's powers were among those absorbed by Rogue, under the control of Mesmero, and used to resurrect Apocalypse. When Magneto was apparently killed by Apocalypse, the Brotherhood were left yet again without direction. They attempted to pass themselves off as local heroes by staging disasters and then publicly saving people, and successfully manage to turn the locals against the X-Men. But when they cause a disaster that's too big to handle, the Brotherhood members all run away except for Lance, who helps the X-Men to contain the situation and promises that there will be no more heroics.; In the final fight against Apocalypse and his Horsemen, the Brotherhood fought Magneto alongside Kitty's team in Mexico.; In Charles Xavier's vision of the future, it was suggested that Pyro would eventually join the team, to form a S.H.I.E.L.D. sanctioned team.

+History:
+The so-called Bronze Savages were a tribe of Native Americans who lived around Washington state along the Canadian boarder. Resenting the original European colonists of North America, they saw this colonization as an insult to their god, who was represented as a green totem pole. Believing that by killing Caucasians they would drive them from their native land and appease their god. They began a series of murders on men, leaving a miniature green totem at the scene of each death. The authorities were unable to find out how the men were killed and the tribe continued to operate out of a barn in the town of Belford where they carried out their rituals.; Eventually the murders attracted the attention of Captain America and Bucky and they went into the area to investigate. After being attacked on the train there, the pair arrived too late to stop the murder of the grandfather of the woman who tipped them off to the murders. Going to the tribes make-shift temple, Captain America and Bucky rounded them up for the authorities. However when another murder was committed while the tribe members were incarcerated the authorities were forced to let them free.; Reading up on the tribe, the two heroes learned where their traditional land was located and took a canoe up there. They were soon confronted by the chief and his tribes people who explained their plot. They explained that they used the power of fear to kill their victims and then capture Cap and Bucky. The tribe then placed the two heroes atop a massive totem pole which they then lit on fire hoping to kill Cap and Bucky. The two heroes managed to break free and escape. As they fled the burning totem, they witnessed as it toppled, causing the tribes cliff-side camp to fall down a chasm sending all its members to their demise.

+The British Union of Fascists was a political party founded and led by Charles Xavier, who intended to protect the United Kingdom from depression, exploitation, corruption and invasion.; To achieve his vision, he managed to ascend as the leader of his country, and formed alliances with others authoritarian leaders, the Italian Fascist Mussolini, the Imperial Japan military leader Tojo, the Nazi Hitler and the Soviet Joseph Stalin.; The Axis gathered, they defeated the Allies, destroying the White House of Washington, D.C. and killing Captain America.; That done, Xavier terminate his former allies and ascends as the leader of the "free people of the world". During his march on Paris, acclaimed by the Parisians, he witnessed the drowning of the surface by Atlantis.; Xavier was seemingly the unique survivor of the BUF. He managed to save a few hundreds humans, including "Aryans" and coloured slaves, and destroy Atlantis.; For ten years, he hide in the HMS Albion, experimenting his powers on Atlanteans-humans Hybrids in order to defeat Namor Miyamoto, last remains of both Imperial Japan and Great Atlantis, who tracked him after having seen him annihilate his underwater nation.; In the end, the multiversal X-Men came to Earth-13410, and found the evil Xavier, unwillingly discovering him to Namor's senses, who came to avenge both Japan and Atlantis. After a confused tripartite fight, Xavier was finally slain by Dazzler and Namor's efforts.

+History:
+Following the terraformation of Mars to house the mutant population of Arakko, Storm joined both the Great Ring of Arakko as its regent and the Galactic Council as the voice for the Solar System, working closely with S.W.O.R.D.'s Commander Abigail Brand. Brand had plans to control matters on Planet Arakko with a new team of X-Men of Mars, a.k.a. X-Men Red, inviting Storm to lead them. Rejecting the proposition, a concerned Storm joined Sunspot in approaching Magneto and the Arakkii Fisher King in the Autumn Palace to form a Brotherhood in order to oppose Brand's X-Men.; In order to gain influence, the X-Men of Mars went to field to fight the Progenitors in the settlement of the Morrowlands and defend the Arakkii in order to spread their influence. The Brotherhood of Arakko intervened, gaining support from the villagers to stop the Progenitors and cementing the rivalry between both teams of mutants. Escalating tensions, Brand schemed to place the X-Man Vulcan as her agent on the Great Ring by facing Tarn the Uncaring, but Sunspot manipulated Magneto into ultimately taking Tarn's Seat of Loss after Vulcan died. During the ordeal, Storm invited Khora of the Burning Heart to join the Brotherhood while Sunspot was murdered by Isca the Unbeaten for having tricked her into ensuring Magneto's victory. Upon resurrecting on Krakoa, Sunspot was welcomed by Wrongslide, a flawed resurrection of Rockslide. As Wrongslide was a haunting ghost of Rockslide's existence on Krakoa, Sunspot invited him to join the Brotherhood in Arakko.; When the Eternal Uranos assaulted Planet Arakko using his arsenal, Magneto confronted him directly beside Brand and the Great Ring, while Sunspot, Khora, and Wrongslide joined the Arakkii in protecting the Argyre Planitia from a self-replicating machine army.

They suited up and helped him defeat his brother Loki, the God of Lies, who was agitating some unruly youths into protesting the awesomeness of Roxxon by lying to them that climate change was real and that Roxxon was contributing to it.

They secretly searched the crates and found lion statues, but were ambushed by the Brandts. Fortunately, they managed to escape with the girls' help. Unfortunately, this aroused the Brandts' suspicions.; When they returned that night, they found the entire amusement park completely deserted and packed. Worse still, the informant was found bleeding. His last words contained a warning that the Brandts were planning to kill an entire station full of departing soldiers. The two ran to catch up with the Brandts' train. Bucky ran through the cars, accidentally alerting the Brandts to his presence. Cap arrived to help Bucky, but not before Bucky was stabbed in the leg by one of the Brandts. While Cap dealt with the Brandts, knocking one of them off the train, Bucky, despite his wounds, managed to stop the engineer from throwing the lion statues containing the poison gas into the train's furnace by throwing a knife at him, killing him.

+Notes: Another mutant terrorist group calling itself simply the "Brotherhood" operated for a brief time.
+History:
+===Mutant Supremacy===; Enraged at humanity due to their constant aggressions against mutants, the powerful master of magnetism Magneto decided to gather minions to promote his cause of mutant superiority. His first recruit was the resourceful Astra, whose interplanetary teleportation powers provided Magneto with fine pieces of alien technology. Magneto also took in the fool Toad after rescuing him from a lynching mob. At some point, the immoral illusionist Mastermind joined Magneto. Soon after, he saved a couple of young twins from their own superstitious village. In return, the speedster Quicksilver and the chaotic Scarlet Witch swore loyalty to Magneto. Due to her disrespectful attitude, Astra was expelled from the group before its debut. Without her, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was complete, being based at Island M and ready to bring terror by subjugating the human race to the will of mutants. Although ruthless and rigid, Magneto could not ensure harmony among the Brotherhood members as they despised each other.; After confronting his nemesis Professor Xavier's X-Men by himself, Magneto had his Brotherhood invade the South American nation of Santo Marco. As its tyrant, he met opposition with the X-Men, who battled the Brotherhood to depose Magneto and thwart his plans. The Brotherhood retreated to Asteroid M to scheme a retaliation plan to destroy the X-Men. Baited by the Toad, the X-Men came out in the open to capture him, becoming vulnerable to Magneto and the Brotherhood, who managed to abduct the Angel. In the collapsing Asteroid M, the two teams clashed with each other again until parting ways to save themselves.; Recovering at Island M, Magneto became obsessed with strengthening his operation with new blood. After learning that the ruler of Atlantis Namor the Sub-Mariner went missing, he made imperative to contact him. Magneto manipulated Namor's servants to convince him that the Brotherhood would be reliable allies in his war against the surface world. The X-Men intervened in his plans, being easily outmatched by the savage Namor. However, after noticing Magneto's cruelty and disrespect against the members of the Brotherhood, Namor rejected the alliance. As Magneto escaped, Namor chose to return to his realm, while Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch were forced to remain their dreadful master out of gratitude. To combat the X-Men, Magneto attempted an alliance with Thor, with no success since the God of Thunder perceived his unworthy intentions. During a fight between Thor and Magneto, the X-Men attacked the Brotherhood. In the end, Magneto escaped to rescue his lackeys.; Determined to destroy the X-Men, Magneto saw the monolithic circus artist known as the Blob as a next candidate for recruitment. The Blob was initially interested to get revenge at the X-Men for having tampered with his memories, which led to a battle. However, during the confrontation, Magneto purposely hurt the Blob with torpedoes to harm the X-Men and flee. Disillusioned, the Blob chose to walk his own path with no allies. Mastermind contacted the wrestler Unus the Untouchable, who had sparked Magneto's interest. Unus tried to prove his worth to the Brotherhood by challenging the X-Men. However, the X-Men disrupted his control over his power of creating a personal force field and blackmailed him into declining Magneto's offer in exchange for reversing the treatment.; ===Avenging Mutants===; In an encounter with the enigmatic Stranger, Magneto attempted to convince him to join the Brotherhood. His approach was aggressive, though, which prompted the Stranger to counterattack. Mastermind was transformed into stone during the battle, while Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch chose to defect after the X-Men intervened. The X-Men could not prevent the Stranger to return to his alien home with Magneto and Toad as his hostages. The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was no more. Away from mutant dilemmas, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch joined a revamped version of the superheroic Avengers.; Exiled onto a desolated planet, Magneto used his powers to send a distress signal. Researcher Dane Whitman received the message. Through his equipment, Magneto and the Toad resurfaced on Earth. Determined to reform the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Magneto contacted his former lackeys of the Avengers, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch, ambushing them in Whitman's castle using an army of robots. As the Black Knight, Whitman informed the Avengers their teammates were held captive by Magneto, who tortured them in order to force them into rejoining the Brotherhood. Wishing to rule the world, Magneto subtly convinced Quicksilver of his cause due to humanity's prejudice against mutants. In a public apparition, the Brotherhood was confronted by the Avengers. Amidst conflict, Magneto machinated events to skew the trajectory of a gunshot to wound the Scarlet Witch. Embracing mutant supremacy, Quicksilver left the Avengers and joined Magneto's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants with his sister.; Seeking revenge, Magneto focused his ire on the X-Men following the apparent death of Xavier. Simultaneously, he developed a device to brainwash Earth's population. On Island M, the X-Men, having anticipated an attack, struck first, but were subdued. Disturbed, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch convinced Magneto not to execute the captive X-Men. Angel managed to break free, with Quicksilver failing to recapture him. Meanwhile, the leader of the X-Men, Cyclops, engaged in a debate about the position of mutantkind with Quicksilver. Angel, on the other hand, contacted the Avengers, assembling them against Magneto. However, using his new device, Magneto brainwashed the X-Men into becoming his pawns and bringing them into action against the Avengers. The X-Men were defeated, and the Avengers reached the master of magnetism. Revolted against so many insults, the Toad betrayed Magneto, refusing to help him in the final battle against his enemies. Having activated the base's self-detonation, the Toad escaped, but not before sending Magneto to his doom. As such, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants ended.; ===Hidden Years===; After a tenure with the subversive organization Factor Three, the Blob, Unus the Untouchable, and Mastermind banded together as a new Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. The new group acted within the criminal underworld. When the X-Men crossed paths with the creepy Krueger aboard his ship, they were captured and trafficked to the Brotherhood. Through an illusion, Mastermind paid Krueger with false money, getting hold of Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Angel, and the X-Men's companion, Candy Southern. Mastermind's elaborate illusions deeply confused and tormented the captured X-Men. The Brotherhood's revenge plan against the X-Men was interrupted by Krueger, who sought retribution for having been tricked in the previous negotiation. He canceled out the powers of the members of the Brotherhood, enabling the X-Men to break free. As a result, the Blob, Unus, and Mastermind were put under arrest.; The trio's next plan involved manipulating former X-Man Beast, who at the time operated independently at Brand Corporation. Casting an illusion, Mastermind led the Beast to believe he had killed the Avenger Iron Man. Completely out of his senses and succumbed to his primitive instincts, the Beast clashed with the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, being ultimately convinced to join them by agreeing with their mutant supremacy ideals. Since the Beast had undergone a physical transformation, Mastermind could not recognize him. The Brotherhood planned to perform a robbery to acquire the valuable Rahmur diamond. The Beast secured the jewel, but the experience of committing a crime returned him to his senses. At the carnival that served as the Brotherhood's hideout, the Beast locked the Blob and Unus inside an animal cage. Ultimately, seeing through Mastermind's illusions, the Beast scared him off and drove him insane. In the end, the Brotherhood was delivered to the authorities.; Magneto resurfaced, enlisting the members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants into his cause. His creation, the Savage Land Mutate, the enchantress Lorelei, was added to the group of terrorists. In his secret lair in New Mexico, Magneto designed Alpha, the Ultimate Mutant, to enact his plans of conquering the world. Professor Xavier, not having his X-Men available, contacted Doctor Strange and his Defenders, instead. The dynamic super-hero team opposed Magneto and his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, but could not prevent the activation of Alpha. The rapidly evolving Alpha rebelled against Magneto after being convinced by Xavier of his ill intentions. He reduced all the members of the Brotherhood to a state of infancy, claiming he had given them a new chance at life.; Restored to adulthood by the Shi'ar agent Erik the Red, Magneto and his lackeys parted ways. While Magneto resumed his activities on his own, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was left leaderless and without a cause. They were captured by Sentinels controlled by the criminal teleporter known as the Vanisher, an enemy to the X-Men in seek of revenge. As such, he targeted the Champions, of which former X-Men Angel and Iceman were members. Pretending to be on the run from the Sentinels, the Brotherhood of Evil was granted sanctuary by the Champions. This enabled the Vanisher to secretly strike.Darkstar used her powers to control the Sentinels and put the Brotherhood down, trapping the Vanisher with her Darkforce and stopping his revenge plan.; In his mission for mutant supremacy, Magneto reformed the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants with new agents. However, when Captain America defeated them in their failed to subvert the two-bodied creature known as Mister One and Mister Two, they were abandoned by Magneto. The team remained together as the Mutant Force, acting as mercenaries under different employers and masters. For a while, they were manipulated into becoming mutant activists, rebranding themselves as the Resistants.; For detailed information about the reformed Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, see Mutant Force; ===Mutant Terrorists===; The mutant shape-shifter Mystique carried on the terrorist legacy of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants by reforming it as an organization that made use of hard and soft powers. Mystique's actions were influenced by the precognitive information her spouse Destiny would provide her with. The couple dedicated their lives to unveil the mysteries about the future of mutantkind and direct its outcomes, something that brought them misery. Mystique recruited the mercenaries Pyro, who controlled the living flame, and Avalanche, who had a destructive touch. Mystique's cause was entangled with criminal activities in Hong Kong, including an arms-dealing race against the Hellfire Club. Their operation was investigated by the hero Ms. Marvel, who Mystique had previously attacked in the past.; Alongside her criminal operations, Mystique forged an identity in the Pentagon, which allowed her to keep the Brotherhood functional there under the radar. Wishing to finally make a move against humanity, she had the Brotherhood break the Blob free from prison to join them as their last member. They targeted the anti-mutant politician Senator Robert Kelly for assassination in the senate. A possible outcome of the Brotherhood's attack was a dystopian world where mutants had their rights violated as a response to Kelly's assassination. The future version of the young X-Man Kitty Pryde psychically travelled in time to alert the X-Men and prevent the horrible future. The X-Men fended off the Brotherhood in an epic battle for Kelly's life. The mutant terrorists were incarcerated, but Mystique managed to elude them and escape.; Mystique and Destiny had been responsible for taking in a young runaway mutant named Rogue who had the ability to absorb the essence of others through physical touch. Rogue wished to prove her worth as a member of the Brotherhood, but was not part of their missions. Destiny was aware that Ms. Marvel would be responsible to ruin Rogue's life, which prompted Rogue to attack Ms. Marvel by herself and permanently absorb her memories, personality and powers. As her protégée counted with usurped abilities, Mystique took the opportunity to attack and neutralize the Avengers in order to have ways to break her allies in the Brotherhood free from prison. The Avengers were able to fight back to thwart their plan, but only partially, since Destiny was able to escape during Mystique's and Rogue's retreat.; In a following attempt to liberate the Brotherhood, Mystique and Rogue infiltrated the Windust Maximum Security Prison to have access to the inmates. However, they were prevented from overcoming the authorities due to the efforts of the space knight Rom. As they ran away, Rogue, Mystique, and Destiny decided to resume their operations as a Sisterhood. The Sisterhood sought revenge on the X-Men and decided that Angel would be an appropriate source of information. However, Angel's ally, the shining Dazzler, fended them off before they could harm him. Mystique gave up on having either Angel or Dazzler as targets. On the other hand, Rogue vowed revenge against Dazzler, since she had become increasingly jealous of her popular and attractive lifestyle, and bring about a fight by herself. Rogue and Mystique stayed undercover in their operations. Ultimately, Rogue abandoned her guardians, since the unbearable struggle to cope with her attack on Ms. Marvel led her seek help with Xavier in controlling her powers, prompting him to accept her to the X-Men.; Seeking revenge against the X-Men for the loss of Rogue, Mystique contracted the services of the maniac Arcade to train the Brotherhood in his Murderworld. Staging an incident, the Brotherhood tricked the X-Man Colossus into believing victims were trapped in a burning building. He was severely harmed by the combined attack of the now free Blob, Pyro and Avalanche. As they targeted the other X-Men, Mystique had an opportunity to capture Professor Xavier at his school. When approached, Rogue explained to Mystique she was not going to return. In the end, Mystique traded Xavier's life for the freedom of her comrades.; After being infiltrated in the Pentagon for a long time, Mystique chose to reveal herself to her colleague Val Cooper. In exchange for a full pardon, Mystique proposed to offer the Brotherhood's services as the first government-sponsored mutant team: Freedom Force. Their first assignment was to apprehend Magneto. The team conducted various missions for the government, ultimately becoming enforcers of the Mutant Registration Act. They acted side to side with the X-Men in some occasions, as rivals and allies. However, Freedom Force met tragedy when operating on Muir Island, which had secretly succumbed to the machinations of the Shadow King. Destiny was killed in action and Mystique went missing. In a last mission, the operation went awry after they encountered the team Desert Sword. Freedom Force's operatives either turned to Henry P. Gyrich's Project: Wideawake or to Toad's reformed Brotherhood. Val Cooper maintained her mutant sanctioned team in the form of X-Factor, of which Mystique would eventually become a member.; For detailed information about Mystique's governmentally sanctioned team, see Freedom Force; ===Toad King===; The Toad sought to embrace Magneto's purpose as a mutant supremacist, having a dream of subjugation of the human race through a Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. To recruit reinforcements, he liberated Pyro and the Blob from Desert Sword. The new Brotherhood tortured Dr. Karl Lykos and threatened his lover Tanya Anderssen and force him into becoming Sauron. At some point, the mysterious mutant Phantazia joined Toad's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. The grotesque leader of the team proposed an alliance with Masque's extremist Morlocks, a community of sewer-dwelling mutants. Masque agreed as long as the Brotherhood took down his enemy, Cable, leader of the militant mutants of X-Force. The Morlock Thornn was encouraged to join the mission, since her sister Feral had joined X-Force.; At X-Force's secret headquarters in the Adirondack Mountains, Toad and his Brotherhood ambushed X-Force's soldiers and attempted to detonate the base with explosives. The assault turned out to be extremely brutal. Toad and Pyro were swiftly incapacitated. In return, Sauron impaled Cannonball through his chest, prompting a violent reaction from Cable. Sauron was shot dead, Thornn got knocked out, and the Blob retreated. As Phantazia cowardly ran away, Masque was slain by Shatterstar. In a demonstration of power, Cable exposed Masque's remains before the Morlocks to scare them and put an end to their threat. Sauron managed to survive the assault, reuniting with Toad. Despite the tragic debut, Toad maintained his recruitment crusade. He welcomed the fugitives from Genosha known as the X-Patriots to enlist them to his cause. X-Factor opposed them, in a battle during which Quicksilver confronted Toad about their interpretation on Magneto's legacy.; Toad hatched a plan to kidnap a teleporting mutant named Portal to gain powerful weapons and furtively attack the X-Men. When saving Portal from Guardsmen, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was intercepted by the crime-fighting Darkhawk, the amazing Spider-Man, and the enigmatic Sleepwalker. The Brotherhood retreated, being able to capture Portal. Sauron hypnotized him into serving their interests and teleporting them wherever they wished. However, the trio of vigilantes tracked the criminals, forcing them to run away. However, Sleepwalker followed them through Portal's teleportation passage. Hidden within the Brotherhood's hideout, Sleepwalker laid low. The Brotherhood punished Portal for being an unreliable ally. Reunited with Darkhawk, Sleepwalker stroke back at the Brotherhood. As his last command before having his control disrupted, Sauron ordered Portal to teleport the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants away from the fight.; The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was contacted by Exodus, emissary of the Acolytes, religious followers of Magneto. He offered asylum on Avalon exclusively for Phantazia, claiming Toad, Pyro and the Blob had nothing to offer. The Toad was extremely offended by being belittled once again by Magneto, while Phantazia rejected the offer. Pyro was infected by the deadly Legacy Virus, prompting the Brotherhood to seek assistance with the Empyrean, who ran a treatment for the ill on Big Pine Key. Gyrich sent Avalanche and the Commando to invade the island, leading to a clash between the former members of Freedom Force. After making amends with his former teammates, Avalanche and the Commando abandoned Gyrich and joined the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. When the X-Men confronted the Empyrean's activities, since he nurtured and empowered himself with the energies of the sick mutants, the Brotherhood acted on his behalf to drive them off.; The Empyrean decided to collect data from the X-Men for his devious purposes, mobilizing the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants to act as his agents. After learning Professor Xavier wished to use a Time Glider to travel back in time and prevent the Legacy Virus from being released, the Empyrean wished to foil his plan to maintain his energy source. The Commando stole the Time-Gilder from Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. The X-Men raided the Empyrean's island, causing a battle between the two mutant teams. The Brotherhood members were specially satisfied with attacking Rogue, who they regarded as a traitor. Comically, the Empyrean fell victim of his own arrogance. Despite the X-Men defeating the Brotherhood, he still managed to activate the Time Glider. However, he ended up trapped millions of years into the distant past.; ===Hunt for Xavier===; McCoy, an interloper from a dystopian world ruled by Apocalypse who was a doppelgänger of the Beast, stayed hidden for years, subtly machinating events. Seeing the Sugar Man and Mister Sinsiter as rivals, he schemed for plans to oppose them. Recruiting mercenaries, McCoy wished to transform the leader of X-Factor, Havok, into a version of the man from his corrupted reality, Prelate Summers. Upon being successful, his group of lackeys were rebaptized as the Dark Descendants, aligning themselves with Onslaught, a dark persona emerging from Professor Xavier's psyche. Following Onslaught's destruction, Xavier was taken into custody and a corrupted Havok reformed the Dark Descendants into a new Brotherhood, an alternative to Xavier's X-Men.; For detailed information about Havok's team of terrorists, see Dark Descendants; Following the actions of initiative known as Operation Zero Tolerance, the artificial intelligence Cerebro was created and targeted the members of the Brotherhood. Cornered, they released Xavier from prison in seek of assistance. Hidden in Alcatraz Island, that had been conquered by Toad and the Brotherhood, Professor Xavier coordinated their movements to prepare themselves against Cerebro. The all-new, all-different Brotherhood of Mutants led by the Blob had Toad, former Dark Descendant Post, and the unstable Mimic. Looking for their missing mentor, the X-Men arrived on Alcatraz to rescue Xavier, engaging in a fight with his new pupils. Their presence alarmed Cerebro, who managed to find Xavier and the Brotherhood as a consequence. A deadly battle ensued, with X-Men and the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants joining forces against the mechanical monstrosity. The X-Men wished to remove Xavier from the battle to protect him, but the Brotherhood opposed to their plan, believing his absence would mean their deaths. Wolverine guided the Brotherhood into survival as Cerebro changed his target as the X-Men vanished with Xavier. In the end, Cerebro was psychically subdued.; Mystique seized control of the Brotherhood, employing them to recover the cybernetic remains of X-51, the Machine Man under the Hellfire Club's request. During this mission, they tortured Agent Jack Kubrick to accomplish their goal. After getting the prize, Kubrick was murdered by Mystique. However, he was revealed to be a Life Model Decoy, as such, he merged with the corpse of Machine Man, becoming a new creature whose program had been infected with those of anti-mutant Sentinels. The all-new Machine Man easily neutralized Mystique and her allies, regarding the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants as a threat to mankind. Feeling betrayed, Mystique attempted to execute her contractor, Sebastian Shaw, but failed. She vanished in the disastrous battle. Without Mystique, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants became a gang of robbers.; ===Dream's End===; Following a time-travelling adventure across the history of mutantkind, Mystique was certain of her original mission as a leader of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants: the execution of Senator Robert Kelly, who ran an campaign for presidency. She trained a new team for her mission, including the Toad, the Blob, Avalanche, a new Crimson Commando, and the fast Sabre. As Kelly's political career took flight, Mystique was ready to enact her assassination. She went into action with the Toad and the vicious Sabretooth to secure the human-infecting strain of the Legacy Virus from Dr. Moira MacTaggert on Muir Island. In Faneuil Hall, Boston, the Blob led the direct assault on Kelly. The X-Men became aware of the plan and divided their efforts to stop both operations. Cable protected Kelly, identifying the manipulations of an illusionist, the new Mastermind, and put her down. Post was able to corner Kelly, but Pyro ironically sacrificed himself by incinerating Post to save his life, claiming he wished to see peace prosper for mutants in his final moments. On Muir Island, Bishop incapacitated Sabretooth while Rogue restrained the Toad. However, on the loose, Mystique murdered Moira. She was fatally wounded by Rogue in response. In her final moments, Moira released the research results for the cure of the Legacy Virus. Meanwhile, despite the Brotherhood being stopped, Senator Robert Kelly was ultimately killed by an anti-mutant protester who believed him to be a race traitor due to his moderate opinions.; Moira's lover, Banshee, was consumed by grief with her death and formed a radicalized mutant team that acted with extreme violence in Europe, X-Corps. Opposing mutant criminals of his operations were forced to join his mutant police, as he kept Mastermind caged and sedated to use her illusion powers for this purpose. Several members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, including Avalanche and the Blob were enlisted. Banshee's methods caught the attention of his former teammates of the X-Men. As the X-Men discovered Mastermind, one of Banshee's corpsmen, Surge, who had originally helped him conceive X-Corps, murdered anti-mutant militants in secrecy. As Surge was investigated, he revealed that he had controlled the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants from inside X-Corps, working in coalition with Mastermind, who pretended to be in stasis. As such, Surge, the Blob, Avalanche, and Fever Pitch, a former prisoner of Banshee's, countered the X-Men after murdering Sunpyre. With X-Corps completely corrupted, Banshee learned he had no control over his own agents. As the culmination of a master sabotage, Mystique revealed herself to be Surge and sliced Banshee's throat to put him out of commission. Having taken control over X-Corps, Mystique released Mastermind, who telepathically controlled the countless duplicates of Madrox to incite chaos across Europe. The X-Men opposed to the Brotherhood's actions as they could. Mystique was ultimately stopped when a debilitated Banshee released one of his prisoners, Abyss, who confined her inside an alternate plate with his teleportation powers.; For detailed information about Banshee's initiative that got corrupted by Mystique, see X-Corps; ===Planet X===; Genosha, the mutant nation ruled by Magneto, was obliterated by Sentinels in an attack orchestrated by Cassandra Nova. As a repercussion, mutant revolts transpired in different moments in the name of Magneto. Parallel to this, the X-Men recruited mutant healer Xorn into their ranks. As a mentor, Xorn was assigned to the Special Class, a group of troubled but good-hearted students at the Xavier Institute. During a camp trip at night, the Special Class was targeted by mutant-organ harvesters, the U-Men, an encounter during which Xorn's ruthlessness became evident. In secrecy, Xorn indoctrinated the Special Class in mutant supremacy ideals within the walls of Xavier's School. As Magneto, Xorn revealed himself as an infiltrator, who had spent a long time with the X-Men to enact his revenge against the world for having wronged Genosha.; Xorn took Professor Xavier captive and unleashed his rage upon New York City. At his side, he had the traitorous Stepford Cuckoo, Esme, and the Toad. The unprepared teenagers of the Special Class composed his Brotherhood of Evil, namely the heroic but fragile Beak, the repulsive but courageous Angel, the light-hearted Basilisk, the progerian Ernst, and the psychic brain of Martha Johansson. As Magneto, Xorn massacred thousands and maintained Xavier captive, under the influence of the drug known as Kick. Despite his ruthlessness, Magneto could not inspire his followers, meeting extreme rejection. In his insanity, he hurt Beak and Angel, and murdered Basilisk. Ernst declared he was an old-fashioned shadow. The X-Men united to put an end to his actions. Humiliated, he was confronted by Esme, who felt insulted by his behavior, but ended up being killed as well. In the end, Beast neutralized the Kick, while Phoenix burned through his layers of deception. As a final act as Magneto, Xorn executed Phoenix. In retaliation, Wolverine decapitated him.; For detailed information about Xorn's Special Class, see Special Class; ===Heroes and Villains===; The legacy of the original Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was carried on by Magneto's former Acolyte and faithful disciple Exodus. He brought Magneto's gospel on supremacy through terrorist acts alongside Black Tom, Sabretooth, Avalanche, Mammomax, and Nocturne. The X-Men forced them to retreat after a fight in Philadelphia. In seek of revenge, the Brotherhood of Mutants planned to destroy the Xavier Institute, having the unstoppable Juggernaut a mole in the X-Men. In fact, both Juggernaut and Nocturne were infiltrators who wished to stop the Brotherhood. Their charade was revealed when Juggernaut's friend, the student Sammy, found out about the Brotherhood's plans. Black Tom murdered Sammy in cold blood, prompting Juggernaut to unleash his rage upon the Brotherhood. This led the Brotherhood to make a direct move against the X-Men. During the brutal conflict, the X-Men recovered and joined forces with Juggernaut and Nocturne to protect the Xavier Institute. The X-Men triumphed over the Brotherhood. In the end, the X-Man Xorn dragged the villains inside a black hole he unleashed with his mutation, when Juggernaut and Nocturne sacrificed themselves to guarantee the Brotherhood's defeat. Exodus eventually resurfaced and reformed the Acolytes to battle for ways to reverse the mutant decimation.; For detailed information about the Acolytes, see Acolytes; With the relocation of mutantkind to San Francisco, Madelyne Pryor surfaced as a lurking presence behind incidents aimed at Cyclops and the X-Men. She planned for her resurrection, which prompted her to assemble a group of villainesses to support her cause. To gain their trust and loyalty, Pryor promised each of her allies something they needed. This group became a Sisterhood. The new Lady Deathstrike took inspiration of the existence of the team to revive it later on and weaponize the artificial intelligence Arkea.; For detailed information about Madelyne Pryor's Sisterhood, see Sisterhood; ===Magneto: Not a Hero===; The mutant clone of Magneto designed by Astra known as Joseph was revived by his creator. In an insane rampage, Joseph murdered anti-mutant protesters of Humans Now, prompting the genuine Magneto, a member of the X-Men, to investigate the assassination carried out in his name. Having subdued Astra, Joseph maintained a secret lair in the Appalachian Mountains. There, he ordered Astra to create clones of the original members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, the Toad, Mastermind, the Blob, Quicksilver, and the Scarlet Witch. As Magneto found the hideout, Joseph discussed with him perspectives on mutant supremacy, unleashing the malformed and unstable clones upon him as he felt insulted. Magneto destroyed the copies of his former lackeys and mortally wounded Astra to force her teleport him away from the battle to Utopia, the island base of the X-Men. Joseph maintained his public apparitions as Magneto, inciting a duel between the two versions of Magneto. Having his name cleared, Magneto faced the choice of executing his doppelgänger, but chose to deliver him to the authorities, instead.; ===From Genesis to Apocalypse===; Wolverine secretly led X-Force, a faction of mutant killers whose main mission involved preventing the ascension of Apocalypse. Their methods led many of their enemies to grow insulted by their hypocrisy. The son of Wolverine Daken formed a Brotherhood of Evil Mutants to torment X-Force. Counting with privileged information from the Shadow King, he learned X-Force's actions had led to the creation of a clone of Apocalypse, Genesis, who was enrolled at the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning. The members of the Brotherhood acted independently. Crafted from the genomic material of the deceased Omega Red by the White Sky organization, the Omega Clan attacked Wolverine, Deadpool and Nightcrawler, Mystique was sent to subdue Fantomex as a plan schemed by his nemesis, the Skinless Man, the Shadow King psychically subdued Psylocke, and Sabretooth and an alternate version of the Blob abducted Genesis. The Skinless Man murdered Fantomex as he sacrificed his life to safe that of Psylocke. Meanwhile, Daken used Ultimaton to eliminate all members of X-Force in an explosion. Without X-Force, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants planned to shape Genesis into a new Apocalypse, corrupting him by exposing his protectors' crimes.; In the last moment, Psylocke telepathically used Gateway's teleportation powers to save the lives of X-Force. Mystique and Sabretooth were certain Wolverine had not died in the attack and prepared themselves. Moreover, Mystique secretly planned to eliminate the Shadow King for his participation in the death of Destiny. However, on the ruins of Genosha, she was psychically subdued by Psylocke when X-Force furtively moved against the Brotherhood. Meanwhile, Deadpool infiltrated their hideout by himself to rescue Genesis. Seeking revenge against the Blob, Nightcrawler made a deal with Mystique and betrayed X-Force, releasing her and leading to the capture of Wolverine. Daken tormented Wolverine, the Omega Clan tortured Deadpool, and the Shadow King engaged Psylocke in psychic combat. Although Nightcrawler had his revenge by eliminating the Blob, Fantomex's companion E.V.A. attacked him for his betrayal. All the tension forced Genesis to don the Celestial armor the Brotherhood of Evil had prepared for him to ascend as Apocalypse. Managing to break free thanks to Genesis, Deadpool executed the vile Skinless Man, while the Shadow King was trapped and lobotomized by Psylocke inside the prison-body of Omega White of the Omega Clan. Mystique was rescued from harm by Nightcrawler in his escape. Ultimately, Wolverine was forced to end the life of his own son, Daken, something the insulting Sabretooth celebrated. In the end, as the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants died, Genesis and X-Force rejected violence.; ===Mutant Revolution===; Following the death of Professor Xavier at the hands of Cyclops when corrupted by the Phoenix, mutantkind experienced severe changes. Mystique had a hidden agenda alongside Xavier that prompted her into action. Meanwhile, the Beast traveled back in time and brought the original X-Men to the present to confront Cyclops and the perversion of Xavier's dream. Upon learning about this action, Mystique secretly introduced herself to the young version of Cyclops to manipulate him. Alongside Sabretooth, Mystique impersonated S.H.I.E.L.D. director Maria Hill to break Lady Mastermind out of the Raft, murdering several wardens in the process. To gather resources, the new Brotherhood committed heists, and using Lady Mastermind's illusions to incriminate the time-displace original X-Men and expose their presence to the authorities.; The X-Men were confronted by the Avengers Unity Division about the crimes, becoming aware of the activities performed by Mystique's Brotherhood. Meanwhile, Mystique accumulated a vast quantity of money from her crimes. Through her contact with the new Silver Samurai, Mystique met the Viper, leader of Hydra, and offered to buy Madripoor. Wolverine and the all-new X-Men tracked Mystique and the Brotherhood to the hidden warehouse where negotiations were made. As the X-Men disrupted the deal, Lady Mastermind cast an illusion to torment Jean Grey with visions of her past with the original Mastermind. Jean Grey telepathically overcame the mental trap. The X-Men succeeded in battle, but Lady Mastermind was able to cover a retreat for most of the criminals in the site. She was subdued and captured, though. The Avengers Unity Division took Mystique captive, but easily escaped jail.; Mystique infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D. by impersonating Agent Dazzler. As a double agent, she could cover her tracks with ease. Acting on Madripoor, she was able to reach out the Viper again and acquired Madripoor. By producing Mutant Growth Hormone harvested from the real Dazzler, Mystique transformed the country into a mutant nation, with the intention of turning it into a sanctuary. Posing as Dazzler, Mystique attracted Magneto to Madripoor to present him to her plans, expecting admiration and a partnership. However, Magneto reacted violently to what he witnessed, considering Mystique and her allies, Sabretooth, the Silver Samurai, and the Blob, traitors to their species due to allowing the use of Mutant Growth Hormone to run rampant in the streets to fund their initiative. Magneto heavily injured Mystique and the Brotherhood and left a message by collapsing their headquarters, Hydra Tower.; The Brotherhood maintained their operations, however, keeping Dazzler captive and unconscious. The Blob became severely addicted to the empowering drug, which served as a way for Mystique to control him. Meanwhile, S.H.I.E.L.D. went to war against Cyclops and his team of X-Men revolutionaries. As Agent Dazzler, Mystique was summoned to field action away from Madripoor. The Blob's addiction caused him to interact with Dazzler directly, which enabled Magneto to find her location and learn about her condition. Extremely enraged, Magneto defeated the Blob, released Dazzler, and exposed Mystique. Expecting retaliation, Mystique simply vanished to evade capture. This forced her to completely abandon the Brotherhood and her plans in Madripoor.; ===ResurrXion===; In the wake of the conflict between mutants and Inhumans, anti-mutant activist Lydia Nance hired Mesmero to assemble a new Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, whose acts of terrorism she used to propel her platform. To this end, Mesmero brainwashed former X-Men Magma, the Morlock leader Masque, the monstrous Kologoth, and new versions of Pyro and Avalanche. After marking their first public appearance by attacking the United Nations Headquarters, the Brotherhood kidnapped New York's mayor and held him hostage at an abandoned factory. The mayor's kidnapping was intended to lure out the X-Men so they could be killed in an explosion. The X-Men managed to rescue the mayor and avoid the trap, defeating the Brotherhood in the process. Mesmero's hold over the team was broken, and the members of the Brotherhood were handed over to to S.H.I.E.L.D., ultimately leading to its disbandment.; Lydia Nance facilitated Mesmero's escape from The Box to continue having him work for her. Before escaping her approached Pyro and Avalanche, claiming to have found a way to escape on his own, and offering them a chance at freedom to have revenge on Nance. Once they escaped, the Brotherhood attacked a yacht where Nance's Heritage Initiative was holding a fundraising gala with the sole objective to lure the X-Men, though both Pyro and Avalanche believed they were there to terrorize Nance. Shortly after the X-Men arrived, so did a NYPD squadron. Before the Brotherhood made their escape, Mesmero used his powers on the X-Men to make them believe the officers were an assortment of their enemies, prompting them to attack the police. The X-Men broke out of the illusion too late, and were arrested after coming to their senses. When the Brotherhood regrouped, Mesmero revealed the true nature behind their plot, and that they were still under Nance's paycheck. While Avalanche welcomed the earnings, Pyro walked away disgusted by the treachery and for having been tricked into assisting the plans of an anti-mutant bigot.; ===To Me, My Brotherhood===; Magneto attempted to help protect mutantkind with alternative methods by mentoring the time-displaced original X-Men. His all-new alliances were shrouded in deception and lies, however. Following a global crisis caused by the release of the power-bestowing virus Mothervine, Magneto was pushed to embrace violence and extremism again as he vowed to once again advance his mutant agenda by any means necessary to enact revenge against those who he considered to be traitors of his race. He parted ways with the X-Men and set up a new Asteroid M, where he established a new incarnation of the Brotherhood. With his human long-time ally, Briar Raleigh, the group was formed by the Toad, the healer Elixir, his former loyal Acolytes, Exodus and Unuscione, and surviving member of the Morlocks, Marrow.; ===Disassembled===; Mutantkind struggled immensely with the apparent demise of most of the X-Men, including Magneto. In this dark setting, Cyclops and Wolverine, recently returned from death, assembled a new team of X-Men. Masqueraded as Captain America, Mystique tipped Cyclops and the X-Men about Magneto's activities in Transia to implement fear against humans. The Brotherhood was formed by Juggernaut, the Toad, Pyro, Avalanche, and Random. As the X-Men confronted them, they immediately recognized Magneto to be an impostor, namely the insane Joseph. The revelation of the ruse made Juggernaut defect to the X-Men, as he believed the Brotherhood wished to protect mutants. During his delirious speech, Joseph was swiftly killed by Kwannon. Leaderless and defeated, the Brotherhood ended.; ===Arakko===; Soon after, mutantkind relocated to the mutant island-nation of Krakoa. In seclusion from humanity, a Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was not necessary. A sister nation of Krakoa was Arakko, formed by mutants who spend eons in the hellish dimension of Amenth. Arakko was relocated to Mars, which had been terraformed by mutantkind. The former leader of the X-Men, Storm, became an influential figure in Arakkii politics, occupying a position in their Great Ring.

+History:
+===Snot's New Brotherhood===; On Earth-13729, a new Brotherhood of Evil Mutants led by Snot was seemingly confronted by the X-Men multiple times, with their last known activity being the invasion of Xavier Mountain.; ===Xavier and Raze's Brotherhood===; Believing the X-Men had disgraced his father's name and all that he worked for, Charles Xavier II joined his half-brother Raze to start a new Brotherhood, mind-controlling Beast, Deadpool, Ice Hulk, and Molly Hayes into joining the team. A psychic construct of Jean Grey created by Xavier was also a member of the team.; The Brotherhood tried to defeat the X-Men in several occasions throughout the years following their creation, but failed in all of them due to the X-Men's mastery over magic, technology, and bending the laws of physics.; ====Battle of the Atom====; Tired of always losing, Raze suggested the team should go back in time to a period where the X-Men hadn't mastered magic and tech yet, as the X-Men would be more vulnerable to them then, and added that, in order to keep the fight going, they could send instructions to their past selves if they ended up failing again or dying in battle. Going along with his brother's plan, Xavier commanded Beast to send them back in time and they arrived on Earth-616.; Masquerading as their timeline's X-Men, the Brotherhood tried to convince the present-day X-Men into sending the time-displaced original five X-Men back to their proper place in time, alleging that their presence in the present would cause some catastrophic event in the future.; ====Rematch====; After their defeat, Raze send a message to themselves before they tried masquerading as their timeline's X-Men and advised them to attack the X-Men. However, this results in the Brotherhood's defeat, with Xavier's control over the other members, sans Raze who was never controlled in the first place, being broken. The brothers are then imprisoned by S.H.I.E.L.D. while the rest return to their time period.; ====Cross Time Capers====; Afterwards, the team somehow resurfaces at the point in time when the time-displaced original five X-Men have left to travel to the future and take advantage of their absence to impersonate the young X-Men.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-9997
+History:
+The early history of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants presumably mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts.; The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was a radical group of mutants brought together by infamous mutant terrorsit Magneto. Magneto was convinced that an end to prejudice against mutants was impossible, as humans could not even make peace with each other. He instead believed that mutants needed to seize their rightful place as rulers of humanity.; When his former friend and now rival Charles Xavier formed the X-Men to oppose him, Magneto formed the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. In choosing the name "Brotherhood of Evil Mutants", Magneto hoped to force Xavier into the role of judge over mutantkind, hoping that this would prompt ever more mutants to seek out Magneto to escape Xavier and that this would eventually lead to Xavier and his X-Men themselves joining him.; The original Brotherhood would eventually dissolve. Many years after their creation, the entirety of humanity began to rapidly mutate. When the world's governments deployed Sentinels in a desperate attempt to control the spiraling mutant population, Magneto struck, luring the Sentinels into an ambush and destroying them in the Savage Land. From their remains, he created Sentinel City, a mutant refuge in the Savage Land, and invited Toad to sit by his side as an honored citizen, though Toad would seize the first opportunity presented to him to betray Magneto.; In the chaos that followed the mutations of humanity, former Brotherhood members Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver both lost their lives. Mastermind was also dead by this point.

+History:
+The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was a group of mutant terrorists recruited by Magneto. Magneto was a mutant whose goal was to bring about the world's mutant domination. To achieve this goal, he recruited a group of mutants into his Brotherhood and began to carry out a series of terrorist actions against humans. These actions were systematically opposed by the X-Men, a team of adolescent mutants created for this purpose by Charles Xavier, a dear friend of Magneto himself who, however, did not share Magneto's supremacist ideals, but rather dreamed of a world where humans and mutants could peacefully coexist.

At some point before the outbreak, Magneto was apparently the leader of the organization, much as he was in other realities.; Following the spread of the Hunger virus and the collapse of civilization, the Brotherhood's former goals and conflicts became largely irrelevant. When the uninfected Reed Richards of another reality questioned Magneto about his leadership of the group, Magneto acknowledged the association but remarked that the end of the world had erased old divisions. With humanity and mutantkind alike facing extinction, survival had become more important than past ideologies.; Whether the Brotherhood continued to exist as an organized group during the zombie apocalypse, or what became of Mastermind and Destiny was never revealed.

+Weapons: Acolytes are equipped with basic weapons.
+Transportation: Magneto and Forge have created some highly advanced vehicles used both during their terrorist attacks and in The Savage Land.
+Trivia: The X-Men movies derive a lot of their concepts from the Ultimate-series - quite a number of ideas presented in the movies are more or less from the Ultimate series instead of the original series.; Magneto tried to draft Storm to the Brotherhood prior to her being rescued from a jail in Texas.; When the X-Men were kidnapped to Weapon X program, the Brotherhood members Blob, Mastermind, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and Toad came to help the escape.; Juggernaut, Rogue and Sabretooth all joined the Brotherhood after being liberated from the Weapon X program (Nightcrawler went back to Bavaria). Of these mutants only Sabretooth stayed in the Brotherhood.; Charles Xavier has been rescued from captivity at least twice by the Brotherhood.; During the X-Men's world tour, Cyclops and Toad had long phone conversations
+History:
+Eight years ago, Erik Lensherr and Charles Xavier shared a dream - a dream to create a safe haven for mutants. Three years later they started to build a complex in a remote jungle situated in Antarctica called The Savage Land.; Two years after that Lensherr's - now known as Magneto - and Xavier's opinions about the futures of man and mutantkind differed so drastically that their ideological disputes turned to violence. Magneto used his mutant powers to throw a metal pole at Xavier, hitting Xavier in the spine, permanently crippling him. Three weeks after the clash the newly-formed Brotherhood of Mutant Supremacy made its first terrorist attack, its target was the Pentagon. The Savage Land Complex became the Brotherhood's first headquarters.; Magneto's sent his elite assassin Logan to infiltrate the X-Men and assassinate Professor Xavier. He was accepted into their ranks, and quickly seduced Jean Grey in order to further entrench himself within the team. However, Wolverine accidentally fell in love with Jean, and was devastated when she left him upon discovering his connection to the Brotherhood. Scott was heartbroken. Cyclops and Xavier had planned to send Cyclops to infiltrate Magneto's Brotherhood of Mutant Supremacy, and Jean and Wolverine's affair provided a convenient excuse for Scott's departure. During his time with the Brotherhood of Mutant Supremacy, Magneto considered Scott a potential heir and urged him to pursue a relationship with the Scarlet Witch.; American authorities located the Savage Land and launched a massive Sentinel attack, but Magneto used his powers to reprogram them, leading them back to assault Washington. Scott warned Xavier of Magneto's plan to destroy Washington, D.C. with a fleet of reprogrammed Sentinels. While the Sentinels decimated the capital, Magneto dragged the President naked on to the White House lawn. The X-Men intervened, and Magneto was defeated when his son Pietro, convinced that genocide was going too far, removed his helmet, leaving him vulnerable to Xavier's powers. Xavier claimed to have killed Magneto, but had instead secretly brainwashed him, hoping to rehabilitate him.; The Brotherhood participated in the rescue of the X-Men from [[Weapon X (Earth-1610)|; Weapon X]]. Though offered a place on the X-Men, former Weapon X captives Rogue and Juggernaut joined the Brotherhood.; Many members of the Brotherhood, including Magneto, perished during or following the events of Ultimatum, leaving Sabretooth and Mystique the only known survivors, led by a vengeful Quicksilver.

Each member was recruited from a troubled small town or other disenfranchised area of the United States by the Secret Empire under the guise of the "Imperial Forces." During their recruitment, they were medically scanned for certain genetic profiles, and subsequently experimented upon to grant them super powers. Indoctrinated to serve the Elite of the Secret Empire, each member of Brute Force would die to protect and serve their fascist way of life.; Brute Force was called to take down the Thunderbolts when that team had infiltrated the Secret Empire's base. Soon after, they were called to fight them in a gladiator arena, but were defeated by the heroes with the help of USAgent and the Jury, who remanded the Brute Force to police custody.

+Full name: Brothers
+Codename: Yin and Yang
+Other aliases: "Cosmic babies"
+First appearance: DC Versus Marvel Vol 1 1
+Created by: Peter David; Claudio Castellini; Dan Jurgens
+Species / origin: The Brothers are the embodiments of the DC and Marvel Multiverses within a larger Megaverse
+Reality: Megaverse
+Notes: The Brothers actually first appeared in the last page of DC Versus Marvel Vol 1 1 (1996). However, this was a single-panel appearance which did not explain who they were or what their role was in the storyline. Their origin story was given in Marvel Versus DC Vol 1 2 (March, 1996) and is credited to writer Peter David.
+Trivia: The Marvel Versus DC series seems to mostly ignore the existence of the Marvel and DC multiverses. Whenever the Marvel Universe is depicted in these four issues, it is always Earth-616. Whenever the DC Universe is depicted, it is always the New Earth version. New Earth was the mainstream DC universe from 1986 to 2011, before being replaced in this role by Prime Earth. So there might be a misconception that the Brothers encompass only these realities. The multiversal role of the Brothers is mostly implied by the depiction of the Amalgam Universe, the universe created by their merger. It includes elements derived from various realities of both Marvel and DC, not just the mainstream universes.
+History:
+During the final days of the Sixth Infinity, the Living Tribunal created the Brothers, consulting the Spectre in doing so. Once the Multiverse was restored in its seventh iteration, he released the Brothers to serve their pre-destined roles as architects of new realities.; The entities are called "Brothers", though they are also sisters, sexless, and everything in between. In the beginning of their existence, the Brothers encompassed the whole of everything. They encompassed everything except each other. They could not accept this lack of uniqueness and fought each other. They unleashed forces which ended the whole of creation and then restarted it. In this explosion of death and rebirth, the Brothers were blasted apart. Their shattered essence fractured the new-born universe into a Multiverse. Fragments of their essence blew in all directions. As the new universe (or universes) expanded, so did the fragments of the Brothers.; In the process of their fragmentation, the Brothers lost their sense of consciousness and identity. It took them eons just to remember that they had a consciousness of their own. They had to think before they could be. As they had forgotten their own identity, their memory of each other vanished. A long-time later, a series of cosmos-shaking events tore the fabric of reality and redefined reality. The events allowed the Brothers to rediscover each other. They realized they were no longer a singular entity ("Me"), but two of them ("Us").; Once again, the Brothers had trouble accepting their own lack of uniqueness. They also discovered that their current forms were incomplete. Their original battle had caused parts of each Brother to end up in the other one's universe. Each Brother desired to be whole and unique, but the existence of the other denied them that chance. While tempted to fight each other again, they realized that a head-to-head struggle would be futile and end with no winner.; While seeking a solution to their problem, the Brothers observed the existence of their respective cosmic guardians: the Spectre and the Living Tribunal. This gave them an idea about a possible solution to their problem. Instead of directly fighting each other, they would choose super-powered beings as their representative champions and have them fight in their name. Each Brother was convinced that his respective universe was superior to the one of the other Brother. The battle of the champions would determine which was actually the superior universe and Brother.; They realized that there would be some problems in determining the victor of such a battle. Some of their champions were powerful enough to provide for unending battles with no obvious winner. So the Brothers set up a single rule. The champion who managed to immobilize his/her opponent first, would be the victor of their battle. The idea was similar to pinning one's opponent in wrestling. The side which lost the most matches would vanish forever, leaving behind the victorious Brother and his universe.; Another rule that the Brothers set was that their champions would wait until summoned by the Brothers themselves to fight. Both the time and place of each battle would be chosen by the Brothers, not the actual fighters. The champions could not refuse joining the battle, because their refusal would cause the Brothers to go to war again. In that case, instead of a single universe dying, the Multiverse itself would die.; The blue Brother chose as his champions Aquaman, Batman, Captain Marvel, Catwoman, Flash, Green Lantern, Lobo, Robin, Superboy, Superman, and Wonder Woman. The red Brother chose as his champions Captain America, Elektra, Hulk, Jubilee, Namor, Quicksilver, Silver Surfer, Spider-Man (Ben Reilly), Storm, Thor, and Wolverine. A total of 22 champions that would face each other in 11 matches.; The battles of the champions soon started, however the heroes were less than enthusiastic about the Brothers' motivations.; Captain Marvel (Billy Batson) assessed that the Brothers were just "cosmic babies" that had to learn how to work and play nice together. Their power on the other hand could not be denied. The Silver Surfer assessed that the Brothers were the most powerful entities he had ever encountered and thought them superior to Galactus.; The battle between Marvel and DC champions technically ended with 6 to 5 victory for the Marvel side. The 6 Marvel victors were Thor, Silver Surfer, Elektra, Wolverine, Storm, and Spider-Man. The 5 DC victors were the Flash, Aquaman, Robin, Superman, and Batman. However the red Brother was unable to claim his victory. The Brothers touched and merged into a single being. Their universes consequently merged into a new one, the Amalgam Universe.; The merger of the Brothers turned out to be temporary and they regained their unique identities. They fought each other directly, until they were able to examine the origins and motivations of Batman and Captain America. They learned something useful from these heroes. Each hero had started out alone and eventually fought alongside many allies, but they had never lost their uniqueness. The Brothers decided they could co-exist after all. They shook hands and congratulated each other for having done well.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; Beyond the likes of the Spectre and the Living Tribunal.; ===Strength level===; Beyond the likes of the Spectre and the Living Tribunal.

+History:
+===Fighting the Mutant Registration Bill===; By the early 21st Century, the Brotherhood only consisted of four members: Magneto, Mystique, Sabretooth and Toad. At this point, Magneto had somehow built a machine that would activate mutations in normal humans that was powered by Magneto himself. The Brotherhood first tested this machine on Robert Kelly, a United States Senator and lead proponent of a mutant registration bill. However, the machine put a huge strain on the elderly Magneto, so the Brotherhood set their sights on Rogue, a mutant who could absorb the abilities of other mutants with only a touch who had recently come under the protection of the X-Men, so she could power the machine in Magneto's place. The Brotherhood captured her at a train station after she ran away from Xavier's mansion. They then set up their machine at the top of the Statue of Liberty, planning to use the machine to mutate the world leaders gathered for a summit on Ellis Island. The X-Men Cyclops, Jean Grey, Storm, and Wolverine climbed the Statue of Liberty, defeating the Brotherhood's members in the process, and put an end to Magneto's plan. While the fates of Sabretooth and Toad were left unknown and Magneto was apprehended, Mystique escaped to disguise herself as the now-deceased Senator Kelly and oppose the mutant registration bill.

Buzz and Chuck were originally raised by their folks at their home on Yancy St. They were big fans of the stunt proformer Daredevil.; The twins involvement in the super-hero community was very limited in recent history on Earth-9997, however after the Celestial Embryo at the Earth's core was destroyed, the Grimm family moved to Castle Doom in Latveria to live with Reed Richards while he attempted to find a way to reverse the mutations in humanity caused by the Terrigen Mists in the atmosphere.; After the death of Captain America, Buzz's parents were asked to carve Cap's face into the side of Mount Rushmore and so the Brothers Grimm were left in the care of Reed Richards and his newly resurrected wife Sue. During this time, Castle Doom was attacked by followers of the Church of Immortus who came to douse the Human Torch that was burning the Terrigen Mists out of the air. Buzz and his brother Chuck helped defend Reed and Sue from the attackers until they were helped by a group of mutated humans dubbed the "Monster Generation", however they were unable to stop Mr. Church (secretly Mephisto) from stealing Dr. Doom's time machine.; After the battle, the Brothers Grimm became smitten by the Monster Generation member, Viki. When Reed figured that the world was about to be destroyed due to the lack of Vibranium to stabilize the planets rotation, he herded the boys into the Inhumans' ship to leave Earth. However, this did not come to pass.; Buzz and Chuck has since remained at Castle Doom, helping out the sick and those unable to die since Mar-Vell was able to kill Death in the Realm of the Dead. They were seen cheering on the Hulk when there was yet another "who's the strongest" competition between the Thing and the Hulk. They also tagged along with their father when he took Reed Richards and the Daredevil's to the Florida Everglades to awaken Jude the Entropic Man.

She founded the religious organisation who began to preach on street corners about Captain Marvel's return, at a time when most believe were still unaware of this fact, urging people to worship the returned superhero and strive to better themselves so as to be worthy of his return.; In an attempt to distance themselves from their 'cult' image, they began a nationwide food drive, collecting canned food, as well as sending aid to Iraq, Afghanistan, North Korea and Darfur. At some point the church was infiltrated by Skrulls, such as 'Brother McNally' who died at some point and was exposed as a Skrull to some members of the church, with other Skrulls still hidden in their ranks, using the Church to hunt for "Captain Marvel".; 'Captain Marvel' approached Julia Starr, who was calling herself 'Mother Starr', and praised the good work they were doing, though he was uncomfortable with the religious aspects. After this conversation he began working with them, and led them to Al-Fashir in Sudan to provide aid there. A warehouse they were speaking on top of was bombed, killing Julia Starr. At least one other Skrull member of the church was chosen to act as a suicide bomber and was about to explode itself but was whisked away alongside two other Skrulls by Captain Marvel who moved so quickly he seemed to merely be a beam of light.

They were placed in stasis within a chest that eventually ended up beneath British Parliament. The brothers were inadvertently freed by two thieves seeking to recover stolen Nazi loot hidden in Parliment during World War II. Materializing in a cavern below Stonehenge and began capturing tourists to drain them of the energies they needed to pull Modred back in time and return him to their master. Their arrival drew the visiting heroes Spider-Woman, the Fantastic Four's Thing and the Thing's girlfriend Alicia Masters. The Thing and Spider-Woman battled the creatures until Modred -- sensing the elemental's arrival came. Modred then used his superior magics to turn each elemental against their opposite, the powers of one cancelling out the other, destroying the Four Brothers before they could complete their mission.

+Created by: Sheldon Turner; Bryan Singer; Ashley Miller; Zack Stentz; Jane Goldman; Matthew Vaughn
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-10005
+History:
+===Formation===; The Brotherhood of Mutants was created in 1962 by the mutants Magneto and Mystique in direct opposition to their old friend Charles Xavier's X-Men. Whereas Xavier sought for a peaceful co-existence between mutants and humans, Magneto's beliefs, influenced by his imprisonment and the death of his family in a Nazi concentration camp, were that humans would never accept mutants as equals and would turn on them, lashing out in anger and fear just as the Nazis had done. His solution was that if humans could not accept them into their society then they would create their own. Thus, the Brotherhood was born.; The two created the Brotherhood by taking in members of the much more radical Hellfire Club following its leader's death. The group was originally made up of Magneto, Mystique, Emma Frost, Azazel, Riptide, and Angel.}; Over the next decade, most of the members of the Brotherhood were killed off. Azazel and Tempest were killed in July 1963 after ambushing members of Project: Wideawake. Angel and Emma Frost were also killed, and autopsies were performed on their bodies by Trask Industries. The group subsequently disbanded.

After finishing up with their task, Destiny ordered Moira to be killed by Pyro who incinerated her body with his pyrokinesis.

+History:
+The Brotherhood received a letter prior to going back in time to try to defeat the X-Men before they could master magic and tech. The letter was sent by a Charles Xavier II from a divergent timeline who had already traveled to the past, and contained instructions on how to try again and win. The Brotherhood took advantage of the original five X-Men's absence in the past to impersonate them there, reshaping the future as they saw fit.; After trapping Professor X within his own mansion, the Future Brotherhood killed Magneto and his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants before setting out to enslave all mutants which created a new timeline, Earth-TRN657. Xavier managed to reach out to some mutants and encouraged them to fight, but their X-Resistance was no match for the Future Brotherhood. In this new timeline, the original 5 X-Men were viewed with dread and disdain by other mutants, who had to hide from them to stay alive.; Xavier's telepathic message reached Magneto in the present day of Earth-616, which became affected by the time ripple effects caused by the Future Brotherhood's actions in the past. The original X-Men used the time machine Magneto had built to fix the timestream to hop across history in search for the cause of the time ripples. They came across the moment of Magneto death by the hands of the "X-Men" and saved him by pulling him out of the timestream. The future Brotherhood became aware that the original X-Men had returned, but saw them as pretenders who had forfeited the claim to their original time and place.; The original X-Men, joined by Magneto from this timeline, arrived at the mansion and and confronted the Future Brotherhood. The fight was a stalemate until Beast used a time-travel device picked up in 2099 to summon allies from across the timeline ravaged by the Future Brotherhood, overwhelming them. Xorn's Construct was overpowered and disintegrated, while the rest escaped back to the timestream. The alterations to the timeline were undone, stabilizing the timestream and keeping the history of Earth-616 unaltered. Magneto later sought the Brotherhood out in order to kill all of them before they could replace the X-Men in the past again.

+History:
+===Origin===; Cadre K is a group of Mutant Skrulls ("K-class Deviant Skrulls") who were eventually gathered into Cadre K by Charles Xavier, as an equivalent of his X-Men to fight the Skrull Empire, to rescue their kind from being culled at birth, and to agitate for mutant rights..; Roster includes Fiz, Nuro, R'tee, Spunje, Z'Cann, Goroth all with various powers. A number came in contact with Apocalypse and were forced to serve him during his plot to gain the power of the Twelve. Professor X of the X-Men went into space to train them, giving them the name Cadre K.; On Carpiax IV, where Skrull Lord Merrek's fecundity-supplement programs apparently resulted in a higher percentage of mutant births, Cadre K battled Dakr't, Trl'k, and the Purifiers.; ===Maximum Security===; Cadre K and Xavier returned to Earth during the Ruul's attempt to overtake the planet by turning it into an intergalactic prison. A wounded Z'Cann attempted to pass on vital information to Rogue. The information was received and the X-Men were reunited with Bishop. Z'Cann was seemingly fatally wounded, but was taken under the care of X-Man Forge and recovered.; ===Secret Invasion===; In a file compiled by Chancellor Kal'du for Veranke, Cadre K was still rejected by the Skrull Empire. They remained unaffected by the massive depowering of Earth's mutants.; At some point, they entered in conflict with Chitauri.; ===Charles Xavier's death===; Some time after the Avengers vs. X-Men conflict, the Skrull K'thron came to Earth, kidnapped most of the enemies of Cyclops and Captain America, and informed them that Cadre K had come to Earth in order to take revenge on the meta-humanity for the Skrull defeat during the Secret Invasion. K'thron brought a detector designed to detect those mutant Skrulls, protected from other detectors by their specific physiology.; Cadre K were revealed to not have made any plans for revenge against meta-humanity and had only wished to live in peaceful obscurity on Earth because they had nowhere else to run. The fact their homeworld had been destroyed and they were still being hunted and hated by fellow Skrulls as "Deviants" caused them to flee to Earth disguised as humans in South Dakota due to Xavier's past belief in America being a place where people can succeed because of their differences. They also created a ranch to protect the Skrulls turned into cows by Reed Richards.; Afterwards, the team helped defeat Doctor Doom and destroy his forces in Latveria, but returned to stay at their ranch in South Dakota.

+===Origin===; Founded by Merlyn, the Corps' main duty was to guard the Omniverse. Each member protected his or her reality based on their dimensional equivalent of Britain, and was powered by the friction between dimensions. Merlyn and his daughter Roma, arranged for each chosen member of the Corps to gain superpowers, using any means, disguise or otherwise, possible.; ===Mad Jim Jaspers===; Merlyn chose Brian Braddock to become Earth-616's version of Captain Britain. After Braddock had adventured as Captain Britain for a few years, Merlyn sent Braddock to Earth-238, where he overheard that this reality once had a Captain UK, however Braddock was unsure of what this meant until he met Captain England and Captain Albion at a trial in another reality.; Back in his own home world, Braddock allied himself with Captain UK who had taken up home there after her Britain had become a fascist state and the heroes living there were targeted for a genocidal purge. Together the fought the hero killer, Fury, after which, Captains Britain and UK and their new ally Saturnyne, were transported to Merlyn's home, Otherworld. Here they discovered that Merlyn had apparently died. Later they discover that it was one of his many ruses.; ===Merlyn's Funeral===; For what seems like the first time, the Corps in their entirety attended Merlyn's funeral. Afterwards Roma began taken a more direct approach with the Corps even making Saturnyne her subordinate, mainly to keep an eye on her, and started bringing Corps member to the Starlight Citadel for training. Roma then added another duty to the Corps list. As well as protecting their home realities, they also must take turns in defending Otherworld.; Every so often, during the adventures of Captain Britain (Braddock), Corpsmen would appear, whether it be when Braddock's British superhero team, Excalibur, ended their interdimensional cross-time caper, to being on the jury when Braddock was tried for breaching the Corps Code of Conduct, either to observe or to carry out the sentence or to attend the wedding of Meggan and Braddock.; When Roma perceived Franklin Richards to be a threat, not only to his home reality (Earth-616) but to all of reality; she dispatched the Warwolves, Gatecrasher and her Technet to kidnap him. When her plan was being opposed by the Fantastic Four and Alyssa Moy, who was babysitting Franklin at the time, Roma teleported them all to Otherworld to face the full fury of the entire Corps.; Although they were hampered by having never worked as a team, the Corps eventually started wearing down the heroes, until Franklin used his reality manipulating mutant powers to supercharge his family who defeated the entire Captain Britain Corps. After a brief debate with Human Torch, Roma agreed that Franklin should be left with his family.; However, it was suggested that the entire kidnapping was just a ruse to let Caledonia, a former prisoner of Roma's Starlight Citadel, infiltrate the Fantastic Four's home as Franklin's nanny to prepare them for their forthcoming battle with Abraxas.; The Corps was decimated by Mastermind, a villainous computer belonging to Brian Braddock, and a group of mutated children known as the Warpies (victims of the Jaspers' Warp), who were once the wards of Captain UK. It is unknown but reportedly only Captain UK and Crusader X (strangely changed into a Caucasian with blond hair, possibly being another dimensional version) survived.; ===The Incursions===; Roma stepped down as omniversal guardian, giving the title to Brian Braddock, who became King of Otherworld and rebuilt the Corps with the help of Jamie Braddock. When the Captain Britain Corps began investigating the incursions, they managed to capture a Mapmaker. Saturnyne had the Corps turn the Mapmaker into a beacon to lure its creators, and possibly whoever was behind the incursions. The Beyonders (Ivory Kings) noticed, sent all of their Mapmakers to attack, and the Corps was destroyed in a matter of hours. Before being cast out of Otherworld to Earth-616 by Saturnyne, Brian Braddock was embedded with all the secrets of the Citadel.; ===Rebirth===; In the wake of the destruction wrought by the Ivory Kings and the incursions, Opal Luna Saturnyne closed the Starlight Citadel. Otherworld suffered political turmoil, with Roma and Merlyn both organizing fae factions. But after Krakoa's Excalibur team killed Morgan le Fay and installed Jamie Braddock on the throne of Avalon, Saturnyne initiated contact with Brian Braddock, hoping to make him the champion for a revived Captain Britain Corps. However, during the fight, Brian had given the Amulet of Right to Betsy Braddock, making her the new Captain Britain, and was suffering a crisis of conscience that stopped him from trying to reclaim it.; During the Amenth/Krakoa tournament, Betsy was struck with a magic weapon that shattered her like glass. Saturnyne assembled the pieces as a stain glass window, hoping to use her to muster an all-new Captain Britain Corps; however, as Betsy was the template, the new Corps is mostly made of counterparts of Betsy from the various Britains.

+First appearance: Secret Invasion Vol 1 8

+Species / origin: Formed after the Skrull invasion by Norman Osborn, served as an antithesis for the Illuminati.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Avengers Tower, New York City
+Notes: Black Panther was offered and rejected membership in the Cabal by Namor, just as he rejected membership in the Illuminati.
+History:
+Following the Skrull Invasion, Norman Osborn, formerly the villain known as the Green Goblin, was placed in charge of the law enforcement agency formerly known as S.H.I.E.L.D. (now H.A.M.M.E.R.) after he dealt the killing blow to Skrull Queen Veranke. The 50-State Initiative fell under the Thunderbolts Initiative, itself under Osborn's control. Tony Stark was blamed for the invasion and became a fugitive, allowing Osborn to seize Avengers Tower and control over the officially sanctioned Avengers team.; Seeking to cement his grip on power Osborn formed the Cabal, a covert group made up of Namor of Atlantis, Emma Frost of the X-Men, Doctor Victor Von Doom of Latveria, Loki of Asgard, and the criminal known as the Hood. Under Iron Man's, Nick Fury's and S.H.I.E.L.D.'s watch, the Cabal members' agendas could not be achieved, but Osborn promised to give them all an opportunity to reach their goals. In exchange, Osborn could appear to be the one who finally got the unruly members of the Cabal "under control", and could call upon them for mutually beneficial favors.; Frost was recruited due to being the leader of the X-Men as well as former leader of the Hellfire Club, and because he believed a telepath might keep the group honest. Dr. Doom could forge an alliance between the the U.S and Latveria. The Hood was instructed to have every member of his syndicate register with the Thunderbolts to be assigned to teams. Loki would eventually gain full control of Asgard and Namor could finally mutually cooperate with surface dwellers. To ensure the loyalty of the Cabal, Norman threatened to unleash the Void on them if they stepped out of line.; The members of the Cabal agreed to the arrangement, but all of them would continue to pursue their own goals. Namor and Doctor Doom had a longstanding relationship, and both agreed to let Osborn's schemes play out, with the understanding that after he inevitably imploded, Doom would rule the land and Namor the seas.; As part of her scheme to be reborn, Loki would manipulate Osborn to hasten his fall. She manipulated the Mighty Avengers to make them a thorn in Osborn's side. Shortly after Thor released all the trapped Asgardians from their mortal vessels, Loki contacted Victor von Doom and struck a bargain, offering the Asgardians a home in Latveria if they banished Thor. After the Son of Satan, Doctor Strange, and Doctor Voodoo joined forces to magically purge Dormammu from his vessel, the Hood, Loki visited Robbins, revealing to him her desire to use him as an additional instrument to hasten Osborn's collapse, and gave him a "second chance", thus making him indebted to her. Loki, Madame Masque, and the Hood journeyed together to Cuba and located the Asgardian Norn Stones to serve as a new power source for the Hood.; Sharing a romantic past, Frost made a secret deal with Namor, vowing to protect the latter's psyche from Osborn if and when he would betray them, in exchange for Namor swearing an oath to protect mutantkind. Namor and Osborn's own disagreements arose from the handling of a cell of Atlantean terrorists. Namor's cousin, the Agent of Atlas Namora, attempted to sabotage Osborn and his forces, further weakening their partnership. As the X-Men and Osborn's "Dark" X-Men prepared to face off, Emma finally revealed her role as a double agent, hardened through her discovery of Xavier's torture at the hands of H.A.M.M.E.R., and defeated the Dark X-Men with Namor's assistance. Osborn ordered the Dark Avengers and Dark X-Men to bring him Namor's head and Emma Frost's heart, and to make sure that Summers saw them do it, but was forced to stand down after and grudgingly accept the new mutant nation of Utopia.; After beginning to lose control of his sanity, Osborn has a violent confrontation with Doctor Doom, which results in Doom bombarding Avengers Tower with a bio weapon before resigning from the Cabal. The Cabal is officially disbanded after the Siege of Asgard which results in Osborn's imprisonment.

+History:
+Calliope owned a struggling travelling circus that made its way around the Mid-Western United States and was desperate to sell it. During a stop in Kansas City, Calliope met Rihva a swami who was seeking to unlock the map to a vast treasure hidden inside the "Blood Stone." He and his band of outcasts and freaks had been travelling the world to find someone with supernatural blood who could unlock the stone's secrets. The group of misfits proposed buying the circus from Calliope to use as cover as they continued their search and promised the current circus workers to a part of the treasure once they found it. Calliope agreed and the group continued with their mission, now with a form of cover to attract less attention from prying eyes.; When the carnival came to Los Angeles, Rihva captured Jack Russell, having deduced his Werewolf identity through his crystal ball. Rihva planned on using the supernatural blood of the Werewolf to open the Blood Stone's secrets. In the meantime, the Carnival displayed Russell during his transformations as a spectacle for audiences to gape at. One night, Mige the animal trainer released the beast, hoping he would leave the circus, however, the Werewolf's bloodlust sent him after the diminutive animal trainor and soon all of the circus' workers were trying to fight back the wolf. Eventually, Mige tricked the Werewolf into following him into his lion's cage where the Werewolf did battle with two lions. Elmo the strongman burst onto the scene in time to try and help his new friend Jack and finally Rihva calmed the animal's down using his hypnotic powers and berate the little Mige for being so untrustworthy.; The next night, Rihva planned on killing the Werewolf and using his blood to activate the Blood Stone. When Elmo learned that Rihva actually planned on killing the creature, he strongly objected, but before he could do anything he was shot in the back by Mige. As he was dying, Elmo picked up Mige and broke the dwarf's back as he asked why he would do such a thing as he was Elmo's friend. The ensuing chaos caused the tent to catch on fire and the Werewolf soon broke his bonds. The other circus members briefly tried to stop the Werewolf before escaping for their lives. The Werewolf followed Rihva, who tried to use his mental powers on the beast, but all he could see was all of the terrible things the Werewolf planned to do to him. This grumsome scene was too much for Rihva to take and he died on the spot of a heart attack. The other circus member's subsequent fates remain unrevealed.

+Species / origin: The Caged Angels are a group of superheroes with the goal of turning the Thunderbolts members against one another and kill them all.
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The Caged Angels were four people with telepathic powers that were being held captive in the Thunderbolts' base, and who were using their powers to turn the team members against one another, attempting to kill them. The telepathic quartet, eventually (by the end of the battle and their lives), had managed to brainwash Swordsman into blowing up their big transport craft, the "Zeus", killing a lot of people; Venom into eating people; Radioactive Man into threatening to give everyone cancer; Norman Osborn into taking on his Green Goblin persona, also killing many; and Moonstone into planning to kill Samson and Robbie. Samson and Robbie were unaffected, and were ready for when Moonstone tried to take them out. Robbie, with Samson’s help, rediscovered some of his Speedball powers, so he used his Penance power to defeat Moonstone, and his Speedball power to save her from the crash. Meanwhile, Osborn, in his Goblin threads, was out to kill just about everyone until a very angry Songbird, who was going to stop the Caged Angels and already hated Osborn, started a battle royale. Songbird succeeded in defeating Osborn and both collapsed. As the telepaths thought that their plan was a success, Bullseye, apparently recovered from the nano-surgery, walked away from the operating table, grabbed some scalpels, and killed the four telepaths for practice, unaware he was saving the team.

+Transportation: Centralized along the New York waterfront the Card Killers utilized a yacht.
+History:
+The Card Killers was a group of playing card themed robbers who were active in the New York City area in the 1940s. By the end of 1946 they were notorious for their daring waterfront robberies and were wanted for at least one murder. Their leader was a man named Ace who was secretly married to society girl Louise Judson who operated with the Card Killers under the alias of "Queen", she often provided the group information about society functions.; Their crime spree attracted the attention of the Sub-Mariner who began searching for the gangs whereabouts after the killed a night watchman during one of their most recent heists. That night, Louise was throwing a birthday party for her brother Clarence, drawing a large guest list of the wealthiest people in the city. Louise then tipped off her gang to rob the yacht, and had one of the Card Killers. Although they were interrupted by the Sub-Mariner, the gang knocked the hero out and then -- as per the plan -- shot Louise's brother Clarence in cold blood in order to avoid implicating her in the heist so that they could still utilize her position in society. After the gang escaped, Namor found the remains of a walkie-talkie that was smashed in the fight and traced it back to the manufacturer.; Hearing this, Louise had one of her men gun the man who sold her gang the walkie talkies. Meanwhile, she managed to convince consoling reporter Betty Dean alone long enough to rendezvous with the rest of the gang so they could prepare for their next crime. Namor however, realizing Louise was involved in the gang tracked down their hideout and attacked. Although initially captured and left to die by way of a playing card inspired death trap, Namor broke free and smashed the Card Killers's yacht, taking them all prisoner and turning them over to the police.; Later, when relating the story to Betty Dean, Namor stated that the members of the Card Killers would be executed for their crimes. However the ultimate fate of each of the members of the gang remains unknown, and the group has not been seen since.

+Species / origin: Genetic specialists for the Fortisquians, who were created by the Beyonders for the purpose of colonizing the universe.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Arcturus IV; Savage Land
+Transportation: A starship called "The Comet"; They are also aware of several warps that transport them between the Savage Land on Earth and a location on Arcturus IV.
+Notes: The back-story of the Caretakers has been revised twice since their first appearance and new information from these retcons have not meshed perfectly with previously-established facts.; In Fear Vol 1 21, the Caretakers claimed that they were the three survivors (a scientist, an engineer and a historian) from a starship that had crashed while on a mission to merely observe and explore Earth, and that their idea to create a super-race to save mankind from its current decline was a recent one. However, in Fear Vol 1 24, it was revealed that the Caretakers were the ancestors and the creators of the race of radiation-mutated immortal freaks who then made up the majority of the Arcturan population.; According to Fantastic Four Vol 1 316, the Caretakers were actually Fortisquians who had been living on Arcturus IV and controlling the evolution of the Arcturan race until 12,000 years ago when they were sent to Earth to save an animal preserve that, unknown to them, had been constructed by the Nuwali.; In Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme Vol 1 26, Stephen Strange is shown reading a chapter from the Book of the Vishanti that dealt with the origin of werewolves. Written by an unknown author, this chapter recounted how Greysire, a werewolf in wolf form, often told other wolves the story of how the Brethren (what the wolves call werewolves) had been created ten thousand years ago by three Genelords of Arcturus who had fled to Earth after war broke out on Arcturus IV. After arriving on Earth, they soon decided to improve man by creating a new and superior people, and used the "seed" from a wolf to do so.; The Fantastic Four retcon attempts to link the name of the starship in which the Caretakers travelled to Earth with the fact that the Fortisquians used "comet-ships" (starships disguised as comets) whenever they secretly checked up on their colonies on other planets. It doesn't really work because there's never been even a hint that The Comet was ever disguised as a comet. Additionally, the idea of sending genetic specialists to save an animal preserve also doesn't make much sense when the reason that preserve was threatened was due to a technological failure.; Although the first two versions clearly state that the Caretakers left Arcturus IV before the war, the most recent version claims that the war was the reason why they fled their homeworld. This version also omits any mention of them not being members of the Arcturan race.
+History:
+The three beings known as the Caretakers were born on Arcturus IV more than ten thousand years ago. They were among the small number of Fortisquians who lived on the planet. Kammar, Ular, and Zoltar were some of the Genelords of Arcturus who controlled the reproduction of the native Arcturan race.; About ten thousand years ago, the leaders on Fortisque were contacted by the unknown race who had created them and ordered to save an animal preserve on Earth. Those chosen for the mission set out from Arcturus IV aboard a starship called The Comet but it crashed on Earth, leaving only three survivors. Those survivors made their way to the Savage Land where they repaired the damaged environmental systems and then discovered a teleportation warp that transported them back to Arcturus IV. Unfortunately, after the expedition to Earth had left, those left in control of the planet had attempted to outlaw all natural reproduction in favor of creating new people only in the Incuflask factories. However, many Arcturans had violently opposed this idea and what began with terrorist bombings soon led to a full-scale nuclear war that killed most of the population. Discovering their homeworld in ruins following that war, the three returned to Earth.; Back on Earth, the three survivors decided that their mission was to teach and guide the human race as their Caretakers. After discovering that Earth was rich in mystic energies, the trio decided that they would also improve mankind. Soon after their arrival, the Caretakers used a combination of science and sorcery to take the seed of the wolf named Windracer and bind it into certain men, creating Werewolves like Greysire. However, the Caretakers eventually lost control over their creations.; In later years, the Caretakers continued their experiments and allegedly created the long-lived super-humans who became known as Maha Yogi and the Sphinx.; One thousand years ago, the Caretakers also allegedly helped the wizard Ebrok create the race of Cat People.; Within the last century, the Caretakers became concerned that mankind seemed to have entered a decline in which his societies were crumbling and the people had placed their most potent weapons in the hands of leaders who cared more for wealth and power than for their fellow beings. Having (allegedly) discovered that they were dying, the Caretakers had undertaken Project: Second Genesis in order to create a race of supermen that they called "the Children of the Comet." The Caretakers intended for this super-race to join with man in order to carry on their work. However, they were opposed by the sorcerer Daemond who believed that man's future lay with the dark forces of the supernatural.; Eventually, the Caretakers recruited Morbius to help them by killing Daemond and his evil cult in exchange for their help in finding Martine Bancroft for him. They also planned for Morbius to lead the members of the super-race they were creating that was to infiltrate Earth's population and guide it from within. However, after Morbius ended up on Arcturus IV and discovered that the super-race that had been created there had become a race of radiation-mutated freaks who wished only to die, he agreed to oppose the plans of the Caretakers.; As the final confrontation neared, the Caretakers realized that Morbius was no longer worthy of their trust and sent their agents to kill Daemond and his cult. The Caretakers later teleported themselves to Daemond's base and, while their clonal agents battled the cultists, the Caretakers themselves fought Daemond. Eventually, after both sets of minions had annihilated each other, the Caretakers and Daemond realized that Morbius had disappeared and knew that only the girl Tara, the flawed prototype for the Children of the Comet, could be responsible. Fearing her power, the Caretakers and Daemond agreed to a truce and they all teleported to the base of the Caretakers. Once there, Tara claimed that Daemond was actually a fourth Caretaker and that she had created his identity as Daemond the Sorcerer for her own ends but both he and the Caretakers rejected this claim and attacked her. Tara responded by using her powers to animate the three unborn Children of the Comet and send them to kill both the Caretakers and Daemond. At the same time, Tara, knowing that the entire world would have to die if she were to survive, provoked Morbius into attacking and fatally draining her of all her blood. Her death throes somehow caused the base to be destroyed.

+First appearance: New Avengers Vol 3 23
+Created by: Jonathan Hickman; Kev Walker
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile; Formerly:; Necropolis, Wakanda, Ultimate Universe
+Weapons: Each member's personal arsenal, Antimatter Injection Systems; clear
+Notes: Despite being founded by Namor and modeled after the leaderless Illuminati, the Cabal actually had a leader in Thanos, by virtue of his immense power and intellect.; The Cabal faced a total of 16 incursions. They successfully destroyed 15 Earths, with the 16th being the final incursion, which resulted in the destruction of both worlds and the end of the multiverse.
+Trivia: The cover of New Avengers Vol 3 24 featuring the Cabal mirrors the cover of New Avengers Vol 3 1 featuring the Illuminati.; Namor's speech to the Cabal mirrors the one made by Reed Richards to the Illuminati.
+History:
+===Formation===; The Cabal was formed by Namor after he had a falling out with the Illuminati for destroying Earth-4290001's Earth in order to save that reality and his own during an incursion against their wishes.; When a new incursion occurred immediately after said event, the rest of the Illuminati were ready to let both universes be destroyed, rather than be forced to destroy another Earth. Namor contacted Maximus and freed the prisoners of the Illuminati in Wakanda's Necropolis, told them about the incursions and asked for their help. Together they destroyed the other Earth, and the Cabal was formed.; ===Time Runs Out===; As opposed to the Illuminati, the Cabal decided to make their actions known to the world. Terrax appeared before the United Nations and made their case to the Security Council, informing them that the Cabal was all that was keeping the Earth and the rest of the universe from being destroyed. The U.N. decided to sanction the Cabal's actions, and in return, the Cabal demanded the nation of Wakanda. They proceeded to sack Wakanda, destroying the city-state, and occupying the Necropolis.; Conflict soon erupted within the Cabal. Namor, who had gathered them all together, was quickly eclipsed by Thanos, who assumed the leading role. Namor began to tire of the Cabal's methods. Rather than simply detonating the bomb and destroying the other Earth with minimal suffering to its population as Namor wished, the Cabal engaged in wholesale slaughter of the other Earth's population, delighting in inflicting pain and suffering to any that might oppose them. Namor finally challenged Thanos for authority, and even attempted to assassinate the Cabal, to no avail.; Namor, desperate to stop the Cabal, sought out the Illuminati once more, ready to turn himself in for his crimes in return for their help. A new incursion was on the horizon, one in which the incursive world had been ravaged by the Sidera Maris. Namor would lead the Cabal to said world, activate the anti-matter injector without their knowledge, and then leave them to die with said Earth by preventing them from escaping with the use of an A.I.M. platform capable of creating an impenetrable barrier between the two colliding Earths. As the Cabal engaged the Sidera Maris in combat, Namor set his plan into motion; however, he was betrayed by Black Panther and Black Bolt, who pushed him off the platform onto the soon-to-be-destroyed Earth.; The injured Namor pretended he was merely investigating a strange object, and the Cabal immediately understood they were trapped with no way of returning to their Earth. However, they discovered an unusual event was occurring: the Earth they were on was experiencing two simultaneous incursions. The Cabal made their way to the second incursion point, and escaped from the doomed planet into the third universe, Earth-1610, where they encountered the Maker.; The Cabal allied themselves with the Maker, and began preparing with him for the eventual end of everything. Anticipating that the final incursion would take place between their world and the Maker's, they ensured Nick Fury would rally his world to fight theirs, buying them enough time to complete their life raft, which would enable them to survive the end of the Multiverse.; ===The Final Incursion===; As the final incursion raged, the Cabal were hard at work putting the finishing touches on their life raft, a device designed to allow them to survive the end of the Multiverse, based on the designs of Reed Richards. During the battle between Earth-1610 and Earth-616, the Maker used his Children of Tomorrow to buy additional time for the Cabal to complete their work. They were able to finish their craft before the incursion ended, allowing them to live past the end of everything.; ===Battleworld===; Eight years after the end of the Multiverse, the Cabal's life raft was unearthed on Battleworld, a patchwork planet created from the remains of several universes by Doctor Doom. As they emerged, they killed a Thor, one of the peacekeepers of Battleworld, and learned the name of the world they were on from a local.; The Cabal began wandering the wasteland of Utopolis where they had awoken, making camp to rest and plot a course. While resting, they were attacked by an army of Thors who had come to bring them to justice. The Cabal were more than capable of holding their own against the Thors however, prompting Sheriff Strange to intervene, along with the surviving heroes of Earth-616 who had escaped the end of the Multiverse in their own life raft. The heroes and the Cabal clashed, and when God Emperor Doom himself arrived, Stephen used magic to disperse all those present and scatter them around Battleworld.; The Cabal were now scattered, with some making their own way on Battleworld and others making common cause with the heroes of Earth-616 in an attempt to overthrow Doom and restore reality to its proper state. During the final, climactic battle against Doom, most of the Cabal were killed. Several have since resurfaced in the reborn Marvel Universe, however.

+History:
+The Butcher Squadron were a group of killers that worked for Thanos to carry out acts of wanton murder and death. They knew when they were about to go out on a mission when they heard the screams of a crew member Thanos killed. One of the jobs they did was to wipe out the pacifistic Dorcaernir people. They later were ordered by Thanos to launch an attack on the planet Zen-Whoberi to prevent it from being taken over by the Universal Church of Truth.; After its member Ebony Maw allowed Thanos' prisoner Gamora to escape from her cell, the Butcher Squadron searched the ship for her. However, Thanos already found her first and asked the Squadron to meet with him. When Thanos asked which member of the Squadron allowed Gamora to escape, the Squadron were tight-lipped while Gamora explained that she escaped herself. Gamora then took a knife from Infesti Macera and threatened Thanos with it. Thanos was impressed with Gamora. So, instead of punishing her, he punished Infesti by killing him for allowing Gamora to take his weapon as well as to send a message to the Squadron who were contemplating turning on Thanos.; Despite the killing of Infesti, some in Thanos' crew still contemplated turning on him. After Thanos had his crew make a valueless attack on the planet Sakaar, the Blood Brothers and pilots of the Fates were convinced by the Butcher Squadron to kidnap Gamora and hold her for ransom. The kidnapping fell apart when Gamora attacked the pilot of the ship she was one, allowing Thanos to destroy its two fellow ship. After dumping the pilot out into the depths of space, Gamora managed to get the ship back to the Sanctuary. Instead of killing the Blood Brothers, Thanos placed them in the brig for the time being.; The Butcher Squadron feigned loyalty toward Thanos when they came to help Thanos take away the Blood Brothers. However, they made the mistake of telling their plan of betraying Thanos in front of Gamora. Gamora let them know this and threatened to tell Thanos. Proxima attempted to silence Gamora but failed. This to a full scare mutiny on the Sanctuary. During the mutiny, the Squadron was once forced to aid Thanos so he didn't kill them. Thanos considered the mutiny to be weak and decided to leave to go after his arch-nemesis, the Magus, leaving Gamora behind.; With Thanos gone, the Butcher Squadron went after Gamora. However, Gamora was able to outmaneuver the Squadron and escape on a ship to reunite with Thanos. Ballista Grim was on Gamora's ship, hoping to pry her out of it. When the ship took off, Ballista was taken with it, leading to her death out in the depths of space. With Gamora gone, Ebony Maw and Proxima began working out their move.; Maw eventually discovered that Thanos had directed the ship on a one-way collision course for the Templeship of the Universal Church of Truth in a scheme to weaken Magus. Maw and Proxima managed to flee using an escape pod. The Blood Brothers also fled the ship as well. When Maw, Proxima, and the Blood Brothers met with Thanos months later, he chose to spare them. He even promoted Maw and Proxima and made them members of his new team, Cull Obsidian.; What became of the Butcher Squadron after that is unknown, but it likely disbanded.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile, Symbiote Hive-Mind; The Spires (formerly)
+Weapons: Carnage's horde fights mainly with their fangs, claws, and tendrils; using their sheer numbers to overwhelm foes.
+Notes: The Carnage Doppelgängers seem to have been based on the Outriders and Doppelganger.; Despite retaining some of the power he was granted, Carnage's method of bringing other symbiotes under his sway changed after Knull's death. During the events of Absolute Carnage, as a consequence of his body acting as a conduit for Knull's power, Carnage's presence was enough to overpower the free will of other symbiotes. Later, after Eddie Brock's ascension to the position of King in Black, Carnage seemed to need the consent of the symbiote in order to induct them into his Hive
+History:
+===Origin===; After bonding to the Dark Carnage symbiote, Cletus Kasady pledged allegiance to the dark god Knull and usurped leadership of an ancient symbiote-worshiping cult. To facilitate his hunt for everyone who had ever bonded to a symbiote, Dark Carnage attacked the Underground City and established a Spire manifested from his symbiote at its center. Infecting the populace and several feral animals with offshoots of his symbiote, Dark Carnage then sent them to hunt down former symbiote-hosts.; ===First Rampage===; Travelling to Doverton, Carnage infected Eric Morrell with a piece of his symbiote before sacrificing him to Knull. John Jameson attempted to intervene, but was also infected and turned into a sleeper agent, capturing Misty Knight and imprisoning her in the Ravencroft Institute. Making his way to New York, Dark Carnage began infecting animals and homeless people, establishing a second Spire underneath Grand Street. Using Knull's power, Dark Carnage corrupted the Hybrid symbiote - which seperated into the Agony, Lasher, Phage, and Riot symbiotes - and sent them after Normie Osborn.; When he was finally ready, Dark Carnage attacked Eddie Brock and his son Dylan - who managed to escape when the Venom symbiote rebonded to Eddie. Dark Carnage had Jameson slaughter the guards stationed at the Ravencroft Institute, arranging a trap for Venom and Spider-Man should they try to rescue Norman Osborn. Springing his trap, Cletus broke into Ravencroft and infected the inmates with pieces of his symbiote, turning most of them into a horde of four-armed Carnage Doppelgängers. With his shock troops now ready, Dark Carnage infected Osborn with a piece of his symbiote to turn him back into Carnage. Unleashing his horde across the city, Dark Carnage took Ravencroft as his base of operations, inducted the remaining inmates into the symbiote-worshiping cult, and resurrected Demogoblin using Shriek as a sacrifice.; When Deadpool burnt the institute to the ground, Dark Carnage relocated his base of operations to the Spire under Grand Street. Over the next several hours, Dark Carnage unleashed his army into the city, directing them to devour civilians or infect them with pieces of his symbiote to swell his ranks. Dark Carnage resurrected the Scream symbiote to serve as one of his generals, sending her after Andi Benton. Sending Osborn after Scorpion resulted in Miles Morales being taken over by an offshoot of the Dark Carnage symbiote, turning him into a unique six-armed Carnage Doppelgänger. Man-Wolf, Miles, and Scream broke free of Dark Carnage's control, though Miles succumbed to his symbiote once again. Despite taking over the Maker, Hybrid was seemingly killed by Dylan Brock, Sleeper, and Hawkeye.; Once the heroes had regrouped and established a base of operations at Rex Strickland's warehouse, using a machine to non-lethally extract codices, Dark Carnage infiltrated it disguised as Eddie Brock before summoning his horde to crush those who opposed him and claim the remaining codices. Out of desperation, the Venom symbiote bonded to Bruce Banner and unleashed his Savage Hulk persona, though Dark Carnage defeated him and assimilated the Venom symbiote - apotheosizing into an even more powerful form. Miles was freed from his symbiote by Eddie, who bonded to the codices extracted by the Maker's machine and amalgamated them into a gestalt symbiote.; As Venom battled the apotheosized Dark Carnage, Spider-Man defeated Norman Osborn with help from the demonic Kindred; and Dylan seemingly destroyed Osborn's offshoot of the Dark Carnage symbiote. With reinforcements, turning the tide against Dark Carnage's horde, Dark Carnage forced Venom to kill him in order to save Dylan - thereby unleashing Knull from Klyntar. With Dark Carnage's death, his symbiote was absorbed into Venom and the offshoots seemingly perished, freeing their hosts.; ===Return of the Bleeding King===; Despite the death of his physical body, Cletus' consciousness was stored in the Symbiote Hive as a codex and was able to pilot the Dark Carnage symbiote due to their uniquely strong bond. Assimilating the Venom symbiote into the Dark Carnage symbiote, Carnage attempted to take over Eddie Brock but was stopped by Dylan. Carnage survived Dylan's attempt to destroy him and bonded to a shark, prowling the ocean for several months before taking a new human host to take part in Knull's attempted conquest of Earth. At that moment, Eddie Brock vanquished Knull and became the new King in Black, granting him some of Knull's divine power and making him the nexus of the Symbiote Hive. Controlling dozens of symbiotes, Eddie sentenced Carnage to execution and directed the symbiotes to devour him, but a piece of the symbiote survived.; Piloting the surviving piece of the Dark Carnage symbiote, Cletus slowly made his way back to New York - restoring the symbiote by devouring everyone he came across en route. Inspired by what Eddie had done, Cletus formulated a new plan to make a comeback using the power Knull had bequeathed him to create a rival Hive with himself as its nexus. Once back in Manhattan, Carnage infiltrated the xenophobic Friends of Humanity organization, bonding to Senator Peter Krane's estranged son Arthur Krane, and began to infect many of the symbiotes left behind on Earth with his will. However, Carnage's failed attempt to corrupt the Anti-Venom symbiote alerted Flash Thompson and Iron Man to his return. Carnage subsequently corrupted the Phage, Lasher, and Scream symbiotes; although the latter was killed by its host, Andi Benton. When Carnage sent Phage to assassinate Andi, she bonded to a new symbiote, Silence, and used its Anti-Venom-derived cleansing touch to all-but sever it from the Hive. Carnage attempted to corrupt the Toxin symbiote, demanding it kill its host Bren Waters, but it refused and repelled him, subsequently broaching an alliance with Silence and Agent Anti-Venom. Carnage next corrupted the Riot symbiote and directed it to Washington, D.C., and sent the corrupted Agony symbiote and its host - Gemma Shin - to spy on Hank Hensley, a veteran who Agent Anti-Venom had sent to spy on Senator Krane as one of his bodyguards - and assassinate him if need-be.; Carnage's plot proved successful, as he was able to assassinate Senator Krane on live television, directing Agony, Phage, and Lasher to slaughter the assembled civilians. However, Riot was vanquished by Sleeper, who had secretly bonded to Hank. Silence, Toxin, and Sleeper assisted the surviving civilians in escaping; battling Agony, Lasher, and Phage until a squad of Guardsmen sent to back them up arrived to capture the corrupted symbiotes. Agent Anti-Venom's battle with Carnage was interrupted by Iron Man, who separated the Carnage symbiote from Arthur Krane - unmasked as a sociopathic serial killer - using his Extrembiote armor. However, Carnage hijacked control of the Extrembiote and almost killed Tony, assimilating it into the Carnage symbiote to become a symbiote-dragon. Gloating that he was victorious, Carnage freed Agony and abandoned Lasher, Phage, and Riot to be separated from their hosts and imprisoned in Alchemax's astrobiology lab.; While Arthur Krane succeeded his late father as senator - which he had plotted to do even before bonding to Carnage - and the Friends of Humanity were more popular than ever, he had grown addicted to the power he'd wielded with the symbiote and begged Gemma Shin - who'd been sent to act as Carnage's emissary - to help him get it back; Gemma agreeing in exchange for his fealty to Carnage's cause. Despite having helped exacerbate anti-symbiote tensions, Agony was later sent as an emmisary to join Mayor Wilson Fisk's Thunderbolts.

Despite pushback from Doctor Doom, the Council unanimously voted to take action.; When the ISO-Sphere went missing, the preoccupied councilmembers assigned Carina to relocate it. After she and the Summoner secured the ISO-Sphere from Gwenpool, Kang the Conqueror quickly dominated the Battlerealm and jamming the Battlerealm's networks, including the Council's communication channels. The Council resumed its ordinary operations following the defeat of Superior Kang.; The Grandmaster hosted a tournament to prevent war between the Krakoans, Clan Akkaba, and the Brotherhood of Mutants; their group would be recognized by Carina's Council as the rightful leader of mutantkind if their selected candidate could defeat the Summoner. After all three candidates lost against the Summoner, the mutants were briefly threatened when Omega Sentinel joined the tournament as the Sentinels' candidate. Fortunately, Omega Sentinel was defeated and disqualified, and Captain Britain stepped up to represent all of mutantkind on Carina's Council.; Ouroboros hijacked the Battlerealm's networks to broadcast a message from Glykhan. Tracing the signal led Carina into Bahamet's trap, where she was publicly broadcast as being incapacitated by a matrix of superheated ISO-8. Although the Summoner overpowered Bahamet, the members of Carina's Council sought explanation from Carina, who chose to continue hunting Glykhan instead of dealing with their bureaucracy.

+Species / origin: Team of assassins employed by the Maker's Council and the Kingpin
+Reality: Earth-6160
+Base of operations: Manhattan, North American Union
+Affiliation: Maker's Council; Wilson Fisk
+History:
+The Maker's Council, composed of the leaders of the seven sovereign super-nations that govern the world and manipulate society, employed the marksman assassins Bullseyes to eliminate individuals they considered a threat to their objectives. When the Council member Henri Dugarry, ruler of the European Coalition, lost one of his eyes, the Bullseyes tore theirs out in solidarity.; At some point prior to January, a Bullseye was provided as bodyguard to Wilson Fisk, a philanthropist who controlled Manhattan. He was present when Fisk had a business meeting with Harry Osborn. In January, Bullseye attended a board meeting of the Daily Bugle newspaper with Fisk, standing there in complete silence. Later that day, Bullseye and Fisk were bombed by an unidentified assailant in green armor who departed the scene aboard a glider.; In February, Bullseye accompanied Fisk as he met with Dugarry to discuss the failed assassination attempt on his life. Dugarry advised Fisk to use Bullseye to remove the vigilante who tried to kill him. A month later, Bullseye confronted the green-armored individual, now referred to as the Green Goblin by the media, at a Fisk construction site. During the combat, Bullseye initially had the upper hand until the newly-costumed Spider-Man intervened. Although Spider-Man appeared to be at a disadvantage, he managed to knock out Bullseye single-handedly. Consequently, the Green Goblin's glider sent Bullseye to an undisclosed location.; In May, the Goblin questioned the captured Bullseye, who expressed his unwavering devotion to Duggarry and questioned the Goblin's commitment to heroism. In response, Osborn donned his helmet and expressed doubt about his status as a hero. Two months later, Dugarry had a new meeting with Fisk, this time to discuss the disappearance of the Bullseye who was put at Fisk's disposal. Dugarry offered a whole team of Bullseyes to Fisk so he could deal with whoever was troubling him, but Fisk declined the offer.

+History:
+Cerebro, which had gained sentience and sought to catalog every mutant on Earth by storing them in cryogenic chambers, began to recruit new mutants to form a new team of X-Men for a specific purpose, to find Shadowcat, and to destroy a mutant tracking satellite , disguised as Charles Xavier. The psionic Grey King, the winged Rapture, the elemental Crux, the superstrong Landslide, the metallic Mercury, and the destructive Xaos formed his perfect team. The new "X-Men" attacked the real X-Men, and captured Shadowcat. She was taken to Xavier, who told her he was dying of a computer virus given to him by Bastion. Xavier asked her to reconfigure a computer system to help him. Shadowcat quickly fixed the computer, and Xavier seemed to be "cured", then he ordered his "X-Men" to place her in cryogenic storage, so her DNA would be preserved for future study. He told her that all obsolete mutants must be "stored".; Shadowcat managed to escape, and she was able to find Wolverine, Rogue, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, and Marrow, who had been searching for her. They encountered Xavier and his X-Men, who were going to destroy the government's mutant tracking satellite, regardless of the potential threat to human life once its radioactive core was breached. Wolverine's senses confirmed Shadowcat's suspicions that "Xavier" was an impostor.; If the satellite was launched, then Cerebro wouldn't be able to collect mutants before humans found them. The real X-Men fought and defeated Cerebro's team, and prevented the satellite from exploding. Cerebro escaped, and revealed that his X-Men were nano-tech lifeforms created from power and personality templates stored in Cerebro's own mutant database. Deeming them failures, he absorbed them into his body, becoming a cybernetic monster. But the real Charles Xavier was able to subdue Cerebro, and purge a virus from its systems, destroying the robotic body it had created.; ==Roster==; Cerebro - The X-Men's mutant detecting computer, given physical form when a nano-tech virus corrupted its systems.; Grey King - Addison Falk, a super-intelligent telepath with the ability to psionically neutralize mutant powers, he also possessed telekinetic abilities to move, lift, and manipulate matter with his thoughts. When he utilized his telekinesis, he was surrounded by a corona of psychic fire in the shape of a bird (like the Phoenix Force). Grey King also wore a Phoenix-like costume and had red hair. Cerebro patterned the Grey King after the mutant power template of Jean Grey and the personality template of Magneto (who had once used the alias of Grey King).verify source; Rapture - Sister Joy, a blue-skinned nun with large dove-like wings, she could fly and was a skilled sword-fighter. She was in love with Grey King. Rapture had red hair and a skull charm on her costume.

They set out to eliminate all those involved for this effrontery to their leader.; Suspecting that the Human Torch and his partner Toro would attempt to stop them, they sent one of their agents to lob a grenade into their apartment. The Human Torch and Toro thwarted this assassination attempt, and their attacker fell from the fire escape outside their window. As he died, he told the two heroes that he was ordered to keep them away from the Ballet Gestapo.; That night, the Carnival of Doom dressed in devil costumes as extras in the play. When the performance went on and the actor mockingly Hitler called them on stage, they then began attacking the actors killing them on stage with real pitchforks. Witnessing this from the audience, the Human Torch and Toro flamed into action and stopped them from murdering any more of the cast.; The members of the Carnival of Doom fled up into the catwalk, however when the Torch burned away the ropes holding up the scaffold, they all fell to their deaths.

Arath's DNA was altered so he could absorb other superhuman powers specifically Nitro and Krakos' strength was enhanced to match the likes of Namor in battle. The cell was led by Kamar, the estranged son of Namor and was assigned by Zoran to go to the surface and use their new powers to attack various US targets.; The first target for the cell was at random as they ended up in the small town of Bentonville, Kansas. They found a young man there called Jacob Anderson, who they tortured to death and carved gills into his neck. Kamar and Krakos then leave Arath to his task as he detonated and killed about 1000 people.; The team then traveled to the city of Seattle, with the plan to construct a device to absorb all the moisture from the air, causing all the humans in the city to suffocate. During the mission, the trio killed a innocent bystander called Marv just for getting to close. Arath grew inpatient with the plan, but Kamar was able to persuade him to hold back for the right moment.; The Atlantean terrorists disguised as garbage men set up the final component to the extractor device. Krakos then killed another human by tossing him into the back of the garbage truck. They surveyed the city and their future victims from the top of the Space Needle.; The team still kept their disguises as they traveled to Unocorp building and trapped a number of humans inside, which included John. All the humans were doomed to be killed by the extractor device. Namor the Sub-Mariner then arrived to stop the terrorist and destroy the device, but the super-strong Krakos punched down to the ground before he can destroy the device.; Kamar then revealed himself to his estranged father and how everything he was to blame. Namor was taken back by his son's presence, and just stood there as his son explained his deep hatred for him and the humans he protected. Namor then realized his opportunity to destroy the machine but was grabbed by Arath who absorbed his powers. Arath pulled him into the air and beat him repeatedly, until Namor was able to rip off his duplicated ankle wings, causing the Arath to fall to his death and be impaled on the Space Needle.; Knowing that he could not reason with Kamar, Namor knocked his son unconscious and returned to Atlantis to quell the usurpers.

+The Cavemen of Mystery Mountain were a group of cavemen who appear to have not evolved for centuries. They were located on Mystery Mountain in the state of Texas near the Frontier town of Leadville. For centuries this tribe of savages lived on the top of the mountain, undetected by modern man. They often travelled down to hunt for food, killing any humans they crossed paths with.; During the days of the American Frontier, the cavemen on Mystery Mountain were unknown to the nearby population of Leadville, who could not explain why dead bodies turned up near the mountain on occasion. Nobody thought to investigate until the day that local girl Marie Lathrop was captured by the cavemen, prompting her jilted lover, local doctor Matthew Masters to investigate her disappearance in his costumed identity of the Black Rider.; The Black Rider climbed Mystery Mountain and found that the cavemen had tied Marie to a stake and intended to burn her alive as an offering to their gods. The Rider tried to fight off the cavemen but found himself overpowered and taken prisoner. He too was tied to the stake and when the cavemen lit the kindling around their feet, the Black Rider used the flames to burn through his bonds. Free, the Rider also freed Marie and the pair made a run for it. The cavemen tried to stop their prisoners, but the Black Rider drew his guns and apparently wiped out the entire tribe, leaving no survivors.

+Notes: The image used in this article is an example of a Celestial Gardener, but Celestial Gardeners do not have to look like this.; The example Gardener resembles Arishem.; In Earth-92131, Eson the Searcher appears to be one of the Gardeners, as he possessed a Death Seed and En Sabah Nur says the word "Gardener."
+History:
+Celestial Gardeners were Celestials tasked with the mission of planting life on new worlds by using Life Seeds and growing new Apocalypse servants to shepherd their evolution by using Death Seeds.; ===Dark Angel Saga===; In Earth-295, Apocalypse had summoned and felled a Gardener though unrevealed methods and then harvested it for its Life Seed. Later, when the X-Force of Earth-616 needed a Life Seed to counteract the Death Seed of Archangel, Dark Beast sent them to Earth-295 to retrieve the Life Seed but it was destroyed. The X-Men went to the fallen Gardener to retrieve a second Life Seed from it.; ===Apocalypse Twins===; In Earth-616, the Celestial Gardener responsible for Earth was summoned from the far side of the universe to the Starcore Station by En Sabah Nur's son, Genocide, when he felt ready to succeed his deceased father as the new evolutionary caretaker of Earth. Finding Genocide worthy after reading his very soul, the Celestial was about to empower him with a Death Seed when the Apocalypse Twins appeared. Initially curious, the Celestial's feelings towards the twin mutants shifted into sadness when Uriel used the enchanted axe Jarnbjorn to cleave wide its unbreakable hull, but only because its death would bring severe consequences to the life it had tended for so long. Its corpse was later taken to the Akkaba Nebula, where Eimin pried Death and Life Seeds from its chest to use in the creation of the Horsemen of Death. The Apocalypse Twins blamed the death of the Gardener on Earth so that the other Celestials, specifically Exitar, would come and destroy it.

+The Celestial Order was a group of aliens who discovered the Heart of the Universe and decided to use its powers to press peace onto a chaotic universe by eliminating war, illness, want, and injustice through their chosen representatives. Initially they were unable to access the power of the Heart, but it changed when they developed instrumentation to filter and absorb the power, transforming them into beings of contained energy.; Centuries ago, the Celestial Order came to Earth to take the pharaoh Akhenaten to be one of their chosen few. After centuries learning how to use the Heart's powers, Akhenaten came back to Earth and rapidly overpowered its superhuman defenders, proclaiming himself its ruler. After learning about Akhenaten's origins, Thanos gathered the Defenders and Captain Marvel to track down the Heart of the Universe's location so that they could oppose Akhenaten. After they entered the Order's space station, Thanos and his allies found the Heart but were detected by the Order's members who attacked them. Thanos eventually leapt into the Heart of the Universe to gain control of it, causing its energies to be released and destroying the space station and all in it.

+Base of operations: Mobile
+Equipment: DISK
+Trivia: The Celebrity five are among the original characters created specifically for the anime. They have no counterparts in Earth-616 or other continuties.
+History:
+The Celebrity Five are five humans who serve Loki. They helped him pull off his attack on the Raft and trap the Avengers in DISKs. They also secured all supervillains at the Raft in DISKs in order to force them into becomming Loki's soldiers. After an accident causes all DISKs to get scattered around the world, they are tasked by Loki to collect them before the Avengers and their partners can do so.; All members of the Celebrity Five have a biocode installed in their body, and are thus able to release villains from the DISKs at will. In this regard they serve as evil counterparts of the Avengers' young partners, Akira, Hikaru, Chris, Jessica and Edward. All members have prominent jobs in daily life, which sometimes interferes with their missions for Loki.; When Loki is initially defeated in the battle at his Ice Palace, the five are arrested by the police. Crossbones breaks them out of prison transport, but only to steal their Biocodes. After their biocodes are stolen, all five of them are forced by Red Skull to join Hydra and help guard the Gaia Anchor on the Raft. When Edward Grant and Hulk come to the Raft to destroy the anchor, the Celebrity Five actually help them accomplish this goal by giving Ed the DISK of Power Man and helping him get deeper inside the complex. After Red Skull is defeated and all Hydra soldiers are arrested, the five use this opportunity to escape from the organization.; By this point however, their reputations are already ruined since everybody now knows they worked with Loki. While raiding their old lair for anything useful, Loki contacts them again from the dimension he has been banished to. He restores their biocodes and orders the 5 to prepare for his return to Earth. For this end, he has them team up with his new henchman, Ronin, to steal the Treasures of Darkness: relics that can grant glorious power but also great suffering to whoever owns them all. These Treasures are needed to powerup the Dark Gate device and open a portal to the Dark Dimension, which will not only release Loki, but also his new master Dormammu. Loki promises all of them a seat in Dormammu's council once he conquers Earth. The five succeed in their plan despite interferenc from the Avengers. However, once the portal is opened, Dormammu sucks all five villains into the Dark Dimension.; After both Loki and Dormammu are defeated, the Five somehow escape the Dark Dimension again, and at the end of the series they are still at large. How they escaped remains unknown, but it is suggested Loki had something to do with it.

+Captain Marvel created the Carol Cadets to help protect Jersey City through the utilization of the visions of the Inhuman precog Ulysses Cain. Becky St. Jude helped recruit many of its members. Captain Marvel placed her protégé, Ms. Marvel, in charge of the group.; However, Ms. Marvel realized that the Carol Cadets were getting too carried away with their efforts to protect Jersey City after witnessing them rough up Josh Richardson as they attempted to bring him in after Ulysses had a vision of Josh causing a power surge at Coles Academic High School, which would have resulted in a large fire and causing numerous casualties. The Cadets were also holding people they were apprehending indefinitely while telling people on the outside that they had the power to do this, but secretly, they knew they didn't.; After having a talk with Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel decided to rein in the Carol Cadets. She eventually compromised with the Cadets and agreed to let out the less dangerous prisoners. Josh, though, was considered too dangerous to be released. Ms. Marvel's friend Bruno Carrelli attempted to break Josh out with an explosive device, but his rescue attempt went horribly wrong as his device malfunctioned leaving Bruno severely injured. The explosion also damaged the Cadets' Waterfront headquarters, allowing the prisoners to escape.; Ms. Marvel became angry with the Carol Cadets' callous attitude toward her injured friend as well as their corruption. When Becky reminded Ms. Marvel that, as leader, she was responsible for the team's actions, Ms. Marvel agreed and ordered the Cadets to disband. Becky picked a fight with Ms. Marvel over this and activated a battle suit to fight her. Becky was eventually defeated. When Captain Marvel arrived to see what was going on, Ms. Marvel informed Captain Marvel of the situation and asked that the Carol Cadets be disbanded; however, Captain Marvel was too committed to her cause to disband the Cadets and asked Ms. Marvel to hang in there and continue to lead them.; Following Becky's arrest for impersonating a police officer, and Ulysses' departure from Earth, it's unknown if the Carol Cadets are still operating or have disbanded.

+Trivia: In Champions Vol 3 1, Viv is listing the members of the Champions Reinforcement Roster when she is cut off by Spider-Man before she can finish mentioning a character whose name starts with "S." Writer Jim Zub had no actual character in mind. He simply added the detail to make readers speculate, but intended to integrate somebody in the series whose name began with that letter if a choice good for him came up.
+History:
+===Origins===; The Champions were formed following the departure of Ms. Marvel, Spider-Man and Nova from the Avengers, when the trio became disillusioned by the behavior of their elders, especially in regards to the second superhuman Civil War. The young heroes desired to rectify the state of distrust by the people towards superheroes in general, and soon recruited other teenagers with similar ideals, the new Hulk, and Viv, daughter of the Vision.; After their first joint mission rescuing a group of girls being trafficked by Pagliacci, the young heroes revealed themselves to the public and Ms. Marvel proclaimed the team's mission to foster a better tomorrow through hope and wisdom rather than unjust force. Her speech became viral on the Internet, and the team was dubbed the "Champions" in social media. One of the people encouraged by Ms. Marvel's speech was the time-displaced young Cyclops, who was admitted into the Champions' ranks after requesting membership.; In their further early adventures, the Champions traveled to Sharzhad and helped a young girl named Amal stop militant fundamentalists from enforcing a gender apartheid; they were confronted by an Atlantean colony while cruising over their waters; and were joined by teenage hero Gwenpool in fighting the xenophobic head of Daly County's police, Sheriff Studdard. During the Leviathon Tide's invasion on Earth, the Champions crossed paths with the Freelancers, a group of teenage mercenaries, who were at the time working for Roxxon to silence protesters. The Freelancers' employers would make efforts to discredit the Champions, framing the young heroes for attacking homeless people, and later trademarking the Champions' logo. The Champions managed to clean the name, and Nova started a countermovement to reject the Champions-branded merchandise.; ===Secret Empire===; When Hydra assumed control of the United States of America under the leadership of an evil alternate version of Captain America, the Champions were separated. Nova became trapped beyond the Planetary Defense Shield in Earth Orbit. Ms. Marvel worked with the Warriors to fight off Inhuman internment camps, and Scott was displaced to New Tian with America's mutants. Amadeus, Viv, and Miles eventually joined the Underground where they associated with Ironheart, and the new younger incarnations of Wasp, the Falcon and Patriot.; After Hydra leveled Las Vegas, Black Widow set out to assassinate Captain America. Spider-Man joined her, having decided to stop running away from his supposed destiny to kill Captain America, as prophesied by the Inhuman precog Ulysses Cain. The remaining Champions, alongside Ironheart, the Wasp and the Falcon, followed him to offer their support, thus joining Black Widow's Red Room. The teenagers were eventually captured by Hydra after Widow's assassination attempt failed and resulted in her death. Spider-Man almost killed Captain America, but the Wasp convinced him not after learning that Black Widow had tried to kill Rogers so that Miles wouldn't. When the contingent of America's super-heroes launched a final attack on Hydra, the Red Room was freed by Taskmaster and Black Ant, who decided to switch sides in light of Hydra's eventual defeat. The Champions were reunited during the final battle, which saw the return of the real Captain America and fall of Hydra.; ===Worlds Colliding===; The Champions next saw themselves forced into an uneasy alliance with the Avengers to stop the High Evolutionary from causing a collision between the Earth and his Counter-Earth. After being turned into an ordinary human by the High Evolutionary, Viv became trapped in another plane of existence while operating a device to foil the villain's plans. The Vision built a Viv 2.0 to cope with Viv's apparent death before Viv found her way home. The two twins co-existed for a brief time until Viv 2.0 went haywire and Viv killed her in self-defense. The Vision and the Wasp managed to rebuild her body, but couldn't bring back her mind. As a way to both regain her powers and ensure her sister lived on through herself, Viv transferred her consciousness to Viv 2.0's body. During this time, the Champions refrained from welcoming Viv 2.0 into the team taking into account Viv's feelings, and decided instead to invite Ironheart, Patriot, the Falcon, and burgeoning new hero the Locust, to compensate for their diminished manpower. Following Viv's return to the team, Cyclops saw himself forced to leave the Champions due to a call to arms from his fellow time-displaced X-Men.; After joining the ranks of the Champions full-time, Ironheart and the Wasp helped Amadeus Cho create the Champions Mobile Bunker (C.M.B.), a new moving headquarters equipped with a command center plugged into worldwide news to facilitate the team's response to crises. During an investigation in Nunavut, Canada, the Champions stumbled into the machinations of Eshu, the Master of the World, and uncovered his capture of a local teenager named Amka Aliyak, who had become infused with the Inua spirit Sila, from whom Eshu was leeching off energy for his machinery. Amka escaped from Eshu's captivity, and joined the Champions, using the shapeshifting powers bestowed upon her by Sila to become the super hero Snowguard.; ===Infinity Countdown===; The Champions became involved in an attempt of the Warbringer to cull his fellow Chitauri for serving Thanos after Nova was alerted of the Warbringer's assault on the Nova Corps on his way to Chitauri Prime. Since Thanos had no interest in saving his minions, and because regular Chitauri possess no will of their own, they didn't defend themselves to the Warbringer's slaughter. The Champions saw themselves forced to fight the Warbringer's army to save lives until Nova knocked out the villain. In the aftermath of the battle, Ironheart tried to confront Thanos, but was swiftly subdued and had her armor destroyed, leaving her traumatized. When the team took Warbringer to the Nova Corps, Commander Scott Adsit confiscated his helmet since he was not an officially-recognized Nova. Losing the source of his powers, Sam saw himself forced to step out of the front lines and become depressed. While still reeling from Thanos' attack, Riri designed her Mk 3 Armor. During this period, Amadeus underwent his own major change, having become partially depowered and renaming himself "Brawn."; ===Champions of Weirdworld===; While helping a Tanzanian village suffering of water poisoning, the Champions discovered the Man-Thing inhabiting their swamp. Affected by Viv's bottled-up fear from her recent traumas, the creature instinctively opened the Nexus of All Realities, sending Sam and the Wasp to the otherworldly Weirdworld. The two were later tracked down by the Master of the World, who had been keeping an eye on the Champions. He found Sam and Wasp amnesiac and mutated by Weirdworld's magic. Eshu took them under his wing and used Sam's ability to harness power from energy crystals to become a conqueror.; The rest of the Champions ventured into Weirdworld to find their teammates using the Siege Parallel, a magical amulet granted to Snowguard by Sila for this mission. They were scattered over the magical realm, having their appearance, identities and past history rewritten in the process. Ms. Marvel became the sorceress Mystic Marvel, Spider-Man became the stealthy rogue Shadow-Spider, Brawn became the barbaric orc Brawnhammer, Viv became the crystal-powered golem Vivid Vessel, Snowguard became the rebel freedom fighter Snowgore, and Ironheart became the virtuous paladin Lady Ironheart. Only Riri remembered her previous life, and managed to reunite with her teammates. The Champions confronted Eshu, the now self-proclaimed Master of Weirdworld, and stopped him from stealing a trove of crystals from the New Crystalium which would have enabled him to exert his will on Weirdworld. During the fight, Ironheart and Viv combined their wills to harness the power of the crystals to return themselves and their teammates to normalcy. Afterwards, Riri managed to snap Sam out of Eshu's influence, and he relinquished his power. Eshu escaped during the confusion, and the Man-Thing returned the Champions home.; ===Champions Worldwide===; Champions started operating globally after giving full membership to Falcon, Patriot, Locust, Bombshell, Pinpoint and Power Man. When the Champions were fighting Zzzax, Ms. Marvel and Viv Vision were killed in the process. Mephisto arrived and offered to rewind back time in to save their teammates. Miles accepted Mephisto's offer, and the demon reversed time resurrecting their dead teammates but unwittingly allowing a girl he saved previously die. This led to Spider-Man quitting the team.; Viv Vision led Brawn, Snowguard and Falcon to deal with an anti-mutant riot in Manhattan, where Dust was already present. Sam Alexander was piloting the hovering Champions Mobile Bunker which seems to have been hit by something. This seems to have dispelled the rioters. They were attacked by Kaldera with whom Sam left the team to find his helmet as Kaldera desired true fight with him as Nova and Sam can retrieve his helmet. While Brawn and the Wasp started working simultaneously with Agents of Atlas and G.I.R.L. respectively.; During the War of the Realms, the Champions fought with Rock Trolls in Australia. Meanwhile, Power Man and Pinpoint meet Cyclops while transporting supplies for X-Men, who hadn't expected them. Cyclops was surprised to learn that they were Champions and took charge in leading the Champions against the Rock Trolls. Cyclops revealed to Ms. Marvel that his younger self's memories were merged with his own and gave her the inspiration to take control of the team. Ms. Marvel asked Dust, who had allied herself with the Champions to join them after Cyclops vouched for her.; Cyclops went back to Queens while the Champions went to São Paulo to defend it from Dísir, who have taken control over South America. Champions started fighting them, Dísir's leader Brün attacked Ms. Marvel but Power Man sacrifice himself but he instead he draw Chi from Dísir and Champions managed to defeat them. Meanwhile, Sam and Kaldera found Commander Scott Adsit and learned the helmet had been stolen by the Thieves Guild of New York and returned to Earth. Sam managed to find helmet and rejoined Champions as Nova before imprisoning Kaldera to Nova Corps.; Being held by Mephisto, Blackheart became privy to his father's latest scheme and begun corrupting members of the Champions, starting with Ironheart, who had been pushing away Viv due to the synthezoid apparently having feelings for her. Spider-Man rejoined the team to help his friends. He, along with Ms. Marvel, also revealed their identities to Nova in order to free him from Blackheart's corruption. Blackheart, tried to use the deal that Miles made with Mephisto but Riri snapped out of his control due to Viv's affection and attacked him. Miles and Amadeus also let go of their guilt from Mephisto's deal. The Champions freed their teammates, united to defeat Blackheart, who was taken down by his father since he ruined his plans.

The Unmaker was eventually defeated, but an EMP unleashed by a portal accidentally left open by Doctor Strange wiped out technology all over the world. This resulted in the shutdown of Viv. As society rebuilt itself, Spider-Man and Hulk became two of the survivors. What became of Ms. Marvel or if the Champions remained together is unrevealed.

+History:
+Nebulon thought that the Earth was the most savage planet which he had ever encountered, but also that humanity deserved redemption. Posing as an average-looking human, he created a cult-like organization called the Celestial Mind Control Movement. It offered to unlock the human potential by offering free lessons in mind-control. The organizations actually aimed to make the humans realize how ridiculous their lives are, by turning them into self-proclaimed "Bozos" and having them wear clown masks.; Nebulon was speaking to a crowd of human followers, when he realized that the Defenders had infiltrated the gathering. He briefly fought them, but Chondu the Mystic (who was also in the room) tapped into Nebulon's powers and teleported both of them away. Nebulon managed to recruit a number of supervillains into his organization, because they hoped to unlock their own potential. He successfully recruited the Eel and Porcupine, but Plantman did not trust Nebulon. Nebulon forced Plantman to stay by his side, reminding him of their common foes in the process.; An angry Nighthawk stormed the Movement's headquarters on his own. Nebulon exiled him to another dimension, where he had already send several captive members of the Defenders. The Defenders managed to teleport back to Earth, and they defeated an army of "Bozos". But Nebulon kept spreading his message, and he was even invited to speak at a meeting of the United Nations.; Nebulon set up a new building for his Movement in Paris. But the organization started a feud with the Headmen due to their conflicting goals. Red Guardian infiltrated the Parisian "Bozo" headquarters by impersonating the female member Marie. But the entire Parisian building was soon shrunk down by the Headmen.; Nebulon managed to spread his influence over President Gerald Ford. Ford was prepared to publicly announce his support for the Movement, but the Headmen attacked. They shrunk down the White House and the attending crowd. Before Nebulon could retaliate, Doctor Strange used the Eye of Agamotto to force the alien to experience human history. Thoroughly disgusted and disillusioned, Nebulon no longer felt that humanity deserved redemption. He fled the Earth and abandoned his own followers.

+History:
+The Champions of Xandar were a team of superhumans/superhumanoids who banded together to protect the trouble-plagued planet of Xandar. During an invasion of Xandar by the alien Skrulls, Xandar's officials contacted the Earth superteam Fantastic Four to help them fight. The leader of the Nova Corps also brought several superhumans for the fight: Nova, Powerhouse, Sphinx, Comet, Crimebuster, Diamondhead, and Doctor Sun.; The Sphinx sought to use the information in Xandar's computers for himself, and soon left Xandar once he extracted what he wanted, with the Fantastic Four in pursuit. The other superhumans, except Doctor Sun, enlisted in the war against the Skrulls to pick up where the Fantastic Four left off, becoming known as the Champions of Xandar.; As the war progressed, they were joined by Protector, Nova-Prime, and the alien spaceknight, Rom. Eventually, the Champions and the Nova Corps repelled the Skrull invasion, but not before Diamondhead defected to the side of the Skrulls and the young Crimebuster was killed in battle. After the war, Nova forfeited his super powers in order that he might return to Earth. The remaining Champions chose to remain together as Xandar's supreme fighting force.; Later, however, during an invasion of Xandar by the world-conquering alien Nebula, the remaining Champions were killed in opposing her attack, which apparently wiped out the entire population of Xandar.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Several heroes meet by chance whilst thwarting the schemes of Pluto
+Reality: Earth-616
+Transportation: formerly the "Champjet", a surplus Avengers Quinjet
+Trivia: Originally, writer Tony Isabella wanted the Champions to be a two-man group consisting of former X-Men, Angel and Iceman, but editor Len Wein insisted the team contain at least five members and Isabella added the other previously-established heroes. Another Russian hero, Darkstar, later joined the team. Had the series continued, the team reportedly was to expand to include Black Goliath in full capacity as well as Jack of Hearts.
+History:
+The Champions were the first West Coast-based superhuman team. They formed much as did the Avengers, with several heroes meeting by chance against a great threat, in their case the Greek god of death, Pluto. The group consisted of two former X-Men (Angel and Iceman), Greek god of strength Hercules, supernatural avenger Ghost Rider (Johnny Blaze), and the Russian spy called Black Widow, who acted as team leader.; After defeating Pluto, the self-styled "Champions of Los Angeles" decided to stick together as a team. Their public dedication ceremony turned into disaster when they were attacked by Griffin, Titanium Man, and Crimson Dynamo. Angel's wealth bankrolled the group, and they bought a surplus Avengers Quinjet, the "Champjet", for team usage. Black Widow and Hercules made an abortive attempt at romance, but though it did not last long, neither did it seriously impair their working relationship. The group also worked from time to time with Black Goliath, who provided scientific expertise in addition to his brawn.; During their brief tenure as a team, the Champions once fought the Hulk, who was, unknown to them, trying to get his injured cousin Jennifer to a hospital for the blood transfusion that would inadvertently turn her into She-Hulk.; In addition to Black Widow, another Russian heroine joined the team: Darkstar joined after participating in an attempt to capture the Black Widow.; The Champions briefly reunited, teaming up with X-Force to battle their old foe Pluto.; After their dissolution, the Champions became a sometime object of ridicule, with Iceman recalling the team as an embarrassment, and Angel calling the team "a nightmare - we just didn't know what we were doing."; Despite this, two recent teams courted the name as their own: the California branch of the 50-State Initiative was originally to be named "The Champions", but this was quickly changed to "The Order". Also, the team first known as the Great Lakes Avengers (also the Lightning Rods and Great Lakes X-Men) changed their name to the unused "Great Lakes Champions" during a poker tournament held by The Thing, although they later switched back.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: The Vault, Wild Sentinel Factory, Ecuador; Formerly:; Corridor; Conquistador
+Equipment: Various advanced technologies
+Notes: The Children of the Vault are very similar to the Neo.; Without their technologies and the power required to operate them, they are primarily just normal humans.
+History:
+===Supernovas===; In the early 1970s, a research group mostly formed by biologists, but also by the temporal physicist Bella Pagan, conducted experiments of temporal acceleration and parallel evolution. Largely derided by the scientific community, they found backing in South America. They received a cargo ship from the Chilean government to operate in, which was kept in international waters for decades, after which knowledge of the project was largely lost. In the locally accelerated temporal environment of the ship, also known as the "Vault", time moved faster by a factor of several hundred times. In the few decades that passed in the surrounding world, a microsociety of highly evolved beings descended from a human genetic base over a time period of six thousand years.; Using advanced technological tools to adapt their organisms, they evolved into superpowered beings, now considering themselves a new species. Following an ecological tragedy, the "Children" of the Vault were expected to leave their captivity and take control over the world. One of the scientists formerly involved in the project, Doctor Casales, grew guilty over the group's unethical actions. He hired Sabretooth and his associate Pasco to assassinate those who had worked on the experiments. After killing Casales, the two mercenaries found the ship, the Conquistador, completely abandoned and sealed off on the open ocean. Coincidentally to their arrival, the effect caused by the M-Day event which depowered most of the mutant population, was misinterpreted in the Vault as a global cataclysm. Thus, the Children of the Vault unexpectedly emerged. A depowered Pasco died in the resulting conflict, but Sabretooth escaped.; The Children of the Vault sought to eliminate Sabretooth to keep their existence secret until they were ready to make their presence known. In their attempts, they destroyed a town in Nogales, Mexico. The Child Serafina manipulated survivors and the media into thinking that Sabretooths' supposed allies, the X-Men, were responsible. Sabretooth contacted the X-Men as they investigated the allegations. In order to kill Sabretooth before the X-Men could learn of the Vault's existence, the mutants Northstar and Aurora were kidnapped and brainwashed. During this process, Serafina tampered with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s security footage, allowing for another opportunity to discredit the X-Men. Serafina and Perro secretly supervised Northstar and Aurora attacking the Xavier Institute. The surprise attack was initially successful, but unpredicted factors led the X-Men to defeat their lackeys. Their failure led Cable to learn the truth behind the Children of the Vault. Simultaneously, Serafina decided to infiltrate the Institute herself. Although invisible to telepaths and machines, Wolverine became mildly aware of her presence. Still, she easily made her way to the injured Lady Mastermind in the infirmary and hijacked her powers to trap Cannonball in an illusion. Cannonball identified gaps in his memory as Serafina was intercepted by Wolverine. She was able to escape, but her imprudence fully exposed the Children of the Vault.; The X-Man Rogue formed a new team of X-Men to directly confront the Children of the Vault, who decided to redirect the full power of El Conquistador, as a mighty flying ship, to the Xavier Institute. The X-Men infiltrated the ship to engage in battle and were restrained. As the X-Men failed in their mission, the Children of the Vault successfully arrived at the Xavier Institute. However, the shape-shifter Mystique tricked the Children of the Vault as Cable sabotaged their sources of energy. The X-Men successfully destroyed the Children of the Vault before they could annihilate the academy and the majority of the world's remaining mutants. With his last breaths, the leader of the Children of the Vault Sangre, who was mortally wounded by Mystique, tried to ram El Conquistador into the school. His plan was stopped at the last minute by Cannonball and the O*N*E Sentinels. Although the main agents in the Children of the Vault apparently perished in the end, many managed to escape the brawl alive, including Perro and Cadena. They left behind three thousand animal carcasses genetically sculpted to resemble them, so that the X-Men would believe they had been killed in an explosion on the ship. The Children of the Vault escaped to Ecuador to hole up in the Wild Sentinel facility once used by Cassandra Nova. Now led by Cadena, the Children of the Vault resumed their plan of world domination and declared mutantkind as their main opponents.; ===Collision===; Having retreated to the Corridor in the city of Quitado, the Children of the Vault maintained their society. Unexpectedly, they met problems due to the erratic behavior of one of their own. The rebellious Luz conducted acts of vandalism to insult the leadership of the Vault. She wanted to avoid being conscripted into their Angelfire Project, which would use thirty Children with energy-based powers to generate energy for their entire city forever. Imprisoned by Corregidora, Luz managed to escape to Mumbai, where she ran into the X-Men. The Children of the Vault sent Sentinels after her that were obliterated by the X-Men. Recognizing their enemies, the Children of the Vault attacked the X-Men, particularly seeking revenge against Rogue. During the battle, Luz traded places with Indra's fiancée Vaipala, who was kidnapped alongside Rogue and the powerful Magneto. Rogue was sentenced to death while Magneto was chosen to compose the Angelfire machine. However, as the technology was activated without the real Luz, the lack of power of the doppelgänger caused the machine to malfunction, which crashed the Corridor into Mumbai. With the imminent collapse of their city, the Children of the Vault were overpowered by the X-Men. In their escape, which was successful due to Luz surrendering, Magneto was able to provide the necessary energy to separate Mumbai from Quitado. This action led the Children of the Vault's city to be lost outside of space-time.; ===Into the Vault===; As part of their main plan of subjugating Earth, the artificial intelligence of the City upgraded the Children of the Vault and released them onto the world to evaluate their chances. The upgraded individuals became second-generation Children of the Vault. In their mission, Serafina was captured by the anti-mutant organization Orchis to be studied in one of their bases. Orchis' enemies, citizens of the mutant nation of Krakoa, raided the installation, accidentally freeing her. Confused, Serafina escaped, but was tracked by Wolverine to the abandoned Wild Sentinel Factory. The entrance to the Vault was exposed to the mutants, who sent Laura Kinney, Synch, and Darwin to infiltrate their society. However, as soon as the three mutants entered the Vault, they lost contact with the exterior world and became trapped in the temporally accelerated environment. The City immediately identified the contamination of its environment and sent the Children of the Vault to eliminate the mutants. However, the mutant Synch was able to replicate their technologically-based abilities, killing them.; In retaliation, the Child Aguja unleashed a massive force field to destroy her foes. The Children of the Vault were rebuilt and upgraded by the City, believing the mutants to have been destroyed. Considering that the Children needed an extra upgrade to face humanity's advances in Orchis and mutantkind's development of Krakoa, the Children of the Vault prepared to undergo a second upgrade as third-generation Children, which still proved not to be sufficient. The mutant spies survived, however. For one century, they gathered intelligence about the Vault. Eventually, the mutants were ambushed, and Darwin was captured. Darwin's evolving abilities were considered by the City to be the key to granting the Children of the Vault another upgrade for a fourth generation. Synch and Wolverine attempted to escape the Vault to inform Krakoa about how the Children of the Vault functioned. They were chased and killed, but Synch was able to retain his memories upon resurrection.; The Quiet Council of Krakoa imperatively commissioned Forge to combat the Children of the Vault. Forge developed Project: Blackbox, an artificial reality generated with Krakoan technology that trapped the Children of the Vault within an illusory world, where they believed that they had accomplished their mission. In fact, they were trapped in stasis. Moreover, a mutant signature was identified inside the Vault. Believing it belonged to Darwin, Forge entered the Vault. He found Laura held captive in the City, but was quickly identified by Serafina. Forge mentioned that he wished to see the results of Blackbox. Being curious, Serafina allowed him leave the Vault with Wolverine. As he left, Forge interacted with the intelligence of the City and learned that Darwin had merged with it after being captured.; ===Children of Tomorrow===; The Krakoan society eventually collapsed due to an attack by Orchis, which led to Krakoa going dormant and the mutant population vanishing. The Krakoan technology was dismantled and Project: Blackbox became unresponsive. This caused the Children of the Vault to be reactivated. Upon reactivation, the Children of the Vault were free to exert their influence upon the world with no mutant opposition. They developed a virus to influence humanity into accepting their status as saviors of the world. Presenting themselves as the "Children of Tomorrow", they shared their technology with afflicted regions of the planet in order to gain the world's trust.; Unfortunately for them, the time-traveling mutants Cable and Bishop were able to foil their plans. Cable used his strain of the Techno-Organic Virus to infect the Children's city, which would not only engulf them all, but also form a Spire that would summon the Technarchy and devour the entire Earth. Left with no choice, Serafina reversed the Children's infection and let humanity free, causing the humans to now hate the Children with a burning passion. After Cable re-absorbed the virus as promised, the Children left the Earth and returned to the Vault.

+The Chess Set attempted to auction off the remains of former Gamma Flight members, Auric and Silver, and a civilian scientist. Auric and Silver had been experimented on by the Sphinx and his agents in an exploration of superhuman powers. The scientist who discovered their corpses claimed that their bodies gave him powers so the corpses were stolen and added to the auction block for an event the Chess Set had organized. Alpha Flight (Gamma Flight's successor) tracked down the event, with the aid of Spider-Man.; There the Brass Bishop explained that the energies that had been collected as part of the Sphinx's experiments were now stored in the bodies of the two siblings and the scientist. During the battle between Alpha Flight, Spider-Man, and the Chess Set, the energies pooled into the scientist and he became a new, merged, being. Seeking vengeance, the new being lashed out at the Chess Set, planning to kill them. Alpha Flight's leader, Guardian convinced the being that to honor the memories of Auric and Silver, it should not kill the Chess Set. Agreeing, the being disappeared.

+Base of operations: Long Island, New York
+Equipment: Both Bishops: Electronic miter; All 3 Knights: Anti-Gravity steed; Both Rooks: Scottish castle including traps and torture chambers
+History:
+Millionaire industrialist Obadiah Stane wanted to eliminate his primary competitor Tony Stark. Having been brought up with a great respect for the game of chess, he patterned his actions and strategies after those associated with the game. As such, he created personal assassins, each of whom represented a chess piece and were outfitted in the garb and accessories associated with their respective ranks.; Stane had his agents, the Chessmen, attack Stark International and assault Stark's confidant, James Rhodes. Stane also set up Indries Moomji as Stark's lover without Stark knowing that Moomji was actually the Chessmen's Queen. While all of this was occurring, Stane and his associates conspired to lock Stark International out of various business deals. Stane then assigned his Knight to assassinate Tony Stark in New Mexico. The Knight fought up against Iron Man who quickly outwitted his opponent and knocked him out with an explosion.; When Stane learned of the Knight's failure, he sent his Bishop to silence the Knight as punishment. After which, the Bishop followed Tony Stark to Scotland to finish off the job. The Bishop came very close to killing Iron Man, but when Stark discovered where the Bishop's powers came from, he disabled his weaponry and knocked him out.; The next challenge came from the Rook, who was in charge of a veritable chamber of horrors inside an old Scottish castle. Iron Man fought against the Rook's efforts and successfully prevented his friends Jim Rhodes and Indries Moomji from being killed.; Ultimately, Tony had to come face to face with the King of the Chessmen, Obadiah Stane himself. Stane's strategy against Stark was much more insidious than just wanton violence. By manipulating a string of events, he caused Tony Stark to start drinking again - a trait that nearly destroyed his life in the past. As Stark's addiction to alcohol worsened, Stane put his opponent in check. He bought Tony's company Stark International out from under him. Tony Stark quit being Iron Man and gave the job to his friend Jim Rhodes.; Changing its name to Stane International, he kept the Chessmen on site as his personal bodyguards. Jim Rhodes assumed the role of Iron Man and fought up against the Chessmen on more than one occasion. Eventually though, Tony got his act together and resumed his place as Iron Man. He engaged Obadiah Stane in one-on-one combat: Tony in his new Mark VIII armor and Stane wearing his "Iron Monger" battlesuit. Tony beat Stane, but the leader of the Chessmen was refused to go down on anybody else's terms but his own. He placed his Repulsor to the side of his head and took his own life.; The Chessmen apparently retained their equipment though, and have since battled Iron Man and the alien mutant Broo.

+History:
+===Origin===; With Reed Richards' new vision of the World, that it had to be changed, he founded a group called the Children Of Tomorrow, somehow recruiting several followers, whose aim was to evolve and then conquer the World.; They established their base in Northern Germany and named it the Dome. The Dome's interior aged at an accelerated rate compared to the outside world. Over 900 years passed inside the Dome, during which its inhabitants evolved to perfect super-humans, while only five minutes passed for the outside world.; ===War on the World of outside===; The European Super-Soldiers Captain Britain, Captain France, Captain Italy, and Captain Spain, originally sent to deal with Asgard, visited the Dome along with Thor. The Children reacted by attacking, killing Captain Italy, while Captains Britain and Spain fled. Searching for the source of Thor's power, the Children killed all the Asgardians and drained their power, leaving Thor powerless and alone, though he was saved by Iron Man, while Captain France was captured.; After that, the City grew, only stopping after having absorbed Brussels and Warsaw. The E.D.I. and some of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s reserves were captured or killed during the annexation.; After an ineffective attack from S.H.I.E.L.D. on the Dome, Thor, using an upgraded version of his hammer and belt, teleported himself inside the City, rescued Captain Britain, and faced the Maker, the new alias of Reed Richards. After being defeated again by the Children, it was revealed to Thor that the Maker was Reed Richards. Reed left him alive and allowed him to escape along with Britain to deliver the message about his new plans.; S.H.I.E.L.D. prepared a new riposte: Nick Fury came to the People, and as their tentative to discuss with the Children ended with Oracle being killed, Zorn and the Eternals decided to attack the Children. On the other side, Marvin Flumm convinced the Hulk to attack the Children.; The two cities fought, with no victory: The Eternals were decimated, but the Children were all absorbed by Zorn's black hole.; The Hulk's attack was a failure too, as Richards convinced him to calm down. But at the same time, the US President decided to drop on the Dome every single nuclear weapon the United States possessed in order to terminate both Hulk and the Children, leading to the death of all the City's dynamos and the destruction of multiple nurseries.; ===Change of Leadership===; The Maker decided to deploy an anti-matter attack on Washington, D.C., teleporting his secret creation Death, killing the President, his Cabinet, and the Congress, putting Secretary of Energy Howard as the next President (fifteenth in the presidential succession line). After Tony Stark contacted the new President to make a plan against the Children, Stark was provided as a prisoner for the Children to seal a pact of peace.; When Richards was about to vivisect Stark, Tony's self-conscious technology interfacer brain tumor named Anthony convinced the City to rebel against the Maker because of his master's counter-evolutionary acts of war (and also Death's creation) and allowed Anthony to create a giant Iron Man Armor and use it against Richards, thus the City became the new leader of the Children who rejected the Maker. The City decided to let the Americans capture Richards in order to make peace between the two worlds. Richards defended himself using a Giant-Man serum on the Hulk, but he was finally defeated by Sue Storm and Thor.; Afterwards he was presumably handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D., and peace was made with the City, as the USA needed to focus on its internal problems.; The ruins of the City were seen later harboring an Infinity Gem retrieved by Quicksilver. The City by this point was seemingly abandoned and declared a radiation zone. At some point, the Children of Tomorrow were lost. Reed Richards didn't want to re-create them, as he felt it was not an appropriate way to grieve his creation and that the world wasn't ready for them.; However, the Maker later apparently changed his mind and created new Children or there were survivors, as the Maker had deployed the Children to battle the forces of Earth-616 during the final Incursion that occurred between it and Earth-1610 in order to protect Earth-1610's Earth. The Children began to briefly turn the tide of the battle, but were overwhelmed by the Phoenix. The Children were presumably killed when the two universes' respective Earths collided with one another.; ==Cultural Traits==; ===Procreation & Generation===; The first generations copulated like normal people, in couples raising their kids. Those relations were the norm for two generations, and the fourth generation was generated by bio-engineering. The first of them, Anton I, was created from Sarah II's genetic material. As this attempt was a failure, the product was destroyed. The third child created in the Dome was a flawless creation, doted with powers, and became a Dynamo.; All the next Children were and are still created into tubs in massive "nurseries".; ===Naming Conventions===; The first generation's Children were taken from classic societies, and kept their names until the School was created by Sarah II, who rejected her family name. Since then, the first name was followed by a number designation.; Later, the School extended its philosophy and after Derrim VI, who became the Second Sword, the Children lost their individuality and the name became based on the hierarchy and function.; ===Occupations===; All the Children have an occupation and stand on it, as specialized workers.; As the School was created by Sarah II, the names were fixated to reflect the hierarchy and occupation.; Several groups exist inside the Children of Tomorrow:; The Maker, Reed Richards, was the gatherer of the first Children of Tomorrow and their ideological leader, even if he gave to the City and to the First Council the decision power, acting himself as a counselor, a representative or a leader, successively.; The City is the personification of the Dome's structure.; The Builders work on the construction and maintenance.; The Dynamos are powered beings who provide the Dome with energy, but are also able to absorb radiation and other energies, serving then as the protectors of the Dome. They were all killed during the massive nuclear attack from the U.S.A..; The Thinkers and Teachers are the philosophers of the Children, part of the School.; The Speakers are the emissaries of the Children.; The Advisers, Judges, and Managers are counselors.; The First Council, also named Quorum is the gathering of four high-ranged members around the Maker and the City.; The Geneticists are experts in anatomic, genetic, and medical stuff.; The Knives, Spears, and Swords are the protectors of the City.; Death was a secret creation of the Maker, raised to keep the basic instinct of the murder.; The Nurses cares about the future generations of the Children, and also seems to act as geneticists and doctors.; ===Appearances===; The Children seems to have reduce their hairiness over the generations, and are for the most part bald, or haired with only a little ponytail. They also have different tattoos.; ===Type of Government and Hierarchy===; The Children are led by an uncontested leadership. At the beginning, the Maker was the only authority. Later, the City became sentient and the Maker adjunct to it the First Council, and accepted their choices, counselling them, but remaining their leader, especially on the urgent and important questions, as dealing with the Hulk or reacting to the American nuclear attack.; When Tony Stark's brain tumor met the City, he convince it to free itself from the Maker's influence. Revealing Richards' crimes against peace and evolution to the Children, he asked them to choose, and accepted their silence as a consent to overthrown his rule.; In their whole society, every Child of Tomorrow is referenced by his role and rank.

+History:
+A team assembled by the Leader as part of his master plan to destroy the Agents of S.M.A.S.H., made up of their deadliest foes including the Abomination, Absorbing Man, Titania, Blastaar and Sauron. He provided each member with stealth belt designed so that only Gamma powered beings like the Hulks could see them. He also made the belts with Adamantium so that they are not destroyed during the confrontation.; He waited to deploy them until the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. have achieved their goal for the world to see them as heroes so that their defeat would be more significant. That day come after the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. teamed up with the Fantastic Four to stop the Toad Men. While the rest of the team was away, Hulk conversed with the Leader in his cell; however he made Hulk believe he escaped by showing himself as a hologram. Hulk smashed his cell wall and the Leader told him that he planted five Gamma Bombs in Vista Verde, which would blow up in thirteen minutes. When the Hulk left, the Leader was revealed to be still in his cell and escaped by his destroyed cell wall.; Hulk then called his team and informed them of the situation. Arriving at Vista Verde, Hulk scared the people near and told his team to search for the bombs. They were attacked by C.R.A.S.H. and both teams collided. The fight created a lot of collateral damage, and since C.R.A.S.H. used their belts, the people only saw the Hulks destroying the city. The Agents of S.M.A.S.H. ultimately defeated their foes at the cost of Vista Verde ending in ruins and their reputation destroyed. Hulk found a transmitter in his statue were the Leader revealed that they were the five Gamma bombs that destroyed Vista Verde, having being tricked by the Leader. When the military arrived the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. tried to show them the unconscious C.R.A.S.H. members but they couldn't see them, forcing them to flee with the world blaming them for destroying the only city that ever loved them.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Genetically-engineered superhumans
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Los Angeles, California, United States of America
+Notes: For some reason, the name "the Children of the Comet" was almost always spelt within quotes.; Since the Children of the Comet were released from their embryo tubes before they could be "granted the gift of birth," they were never conscious and their bodies were not fully developed. Any superhuman abilities they might have possessed were never described or demonstrated.; In Fantastic Four Vol 1 316, the Children of the Comet were described as "androids" by Ben Grimm. This is consistent with the fact that the other Agents used by the Caretakers were described as "genetically cloned androids" in Fear Vol 1 26. In these instances, the term android was used to refer to totally-organic artificial humans, as opposed to beings who are designed to be indistinguishable from humans on the outside but have robot-like mechanical interiors.
+History:
+The Children of the Comet were three superhumans who had been genetically-engineered by aliens whose starship, The Comet, had crashed on Earth ten thousand years ago. The three survivors of that crash, after discovering that the planet was inhabited, had decided to make it their mission to guide the evolution of the human race as its Caretakers.; Within the last century, the Caretakers had become concerned that mankind seemed to have entered a decline in which his societies were crumbling and the people had placed their most potent weapons in the hands of leaders who cared more for wealth and power than for their fellow beings. Having (allegedly) discovered that they were dying, the Caretakers had undertaken Project: Second Genesis that was meant to create a race of super-men that they called "the Children of the Comet" who would join with man in order to carry on their work. The Caretakers also believed that their creations were Earth's only hope because the continued existence of humanity jeopardized the very planet itself.; The first attempt by the Caretakers to create a genetically superior being, the first child of the Caretakers' comet, was the girl-child known as Tara. However, Tara was a failed prototype because she was a psychic vampire who had to feed on life to survive.; After Tara, the Caretakers began again with three new beings who were to be grown to adulthood within embryo cylinders. However, before they were ready to be birthed, the Caretakers learned that their enemy, the sorcerer Daemond, planned to abort the creation of the Children of the Comet. To prevent that from happening, the Caretakers recruited the living vampire Morbius to kill Daemond and destroy his evil cult by offering to find his long-lost love Martine Bancroft for him. Morbius agreed to those terms but before he could complete the task he ended up being transported first to another dimension, the Land Within, and then to the homeworld of the Caretakers, Arcturus IV.; After Morbius returned to Earth, the Caretakers realized that he was no longer worthy of their trust so, to protect Project: Second Genesis, they sent their agents to kill Daemond and his cult. Later, as they observed Daemond preparing to sacrifice Morbius, an act that would enable him to destroy Project: Second Genesis before the embryo chambers had reached full gestation, the Caretakers decided that the only way to preserve the necessary time for the Children to be granted the gift of birth was for them to teleport themselves to Daemond's chambers and battle him personally.; Later, as Daemond and his cultists battled the Caretakers and their clonal agents, Tara covertly rescued Morbius and teleported him to the base of the Caretakers where she explained her origin as the flawed prototype. However, having noticed that Morbius had disappeared and realizing that Tara must have been responsible, the Caretakers and Daemond had agreed to a brief truce so that they could work together to kill Tara who had the power to crush them all. Teleporting back to their base, the Caretakers and Daemond attacked Tara but she blasted them backwards into the embryo cylinders which shattered and released the slumbering and unfinished Children of the Comet. Tara then used her powers to infuse the Children with life and commanded them to murder their fathers which they proceeded to do by strangling them to death. Seconds later, knowing that the entire world would have to die if she were to survive, Tara provoked Morbius into attacking and fatally draining her of all her blood. Her death throes released energy that destroyed the base.

+The Champions of Anamelech were a group of five teenage girl cultists who intended to offer sacrifices to the demon Anamelech in exchange of her fulfilling their ambitions, namely having successful careers in the future. Their rituals caused several disturbances throughout New York, including the appearance of a Chronosite in Manhattan.; These disturbances caught the attention of the new Iron Man, Victor von Doom, who enlisted the help of the Avengers in order to stop them and secretly evaluate Wasp in the process.; Iron Man had Wasp infiltrate the base of operations of the Champions of Anamelech, Susan Storm Camp for Girls' Leadership, in order to pinpoint the source of the magical interferences. When Nadia found out the Champions, they tried to use her as a sacrifice for a ritual. The Avengers intervened, and confronted another Chronosite summoned by the Champions of Anamelech. With Wasp's help, Iron Man cast a spell to vanish the Chronosite, stripping the Champions of their weapons and power in the process.

+Page: Champions of the Five Weapons Society (Earth-616)
+Full name: Champions of the Five Weapons Society
+First appearance: Shang-Chi Vol 1 1
+Created by: Gene Luen Yang; Dike Ruan; Philip Tan
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Quintet of champions representing each House of the Five Weapons Society
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: House of the Deadly Hand, New York City's Chinatown, United States of America; House of the Deadly Staff, in a forest outside of London, England; House of the Deadly Hammer, in the Chara Sands, Russia; House of the Deadly Sabre, Japan; House of the Deadly Dagger, behind a waterfall 20 minutes outside of Paris, France; Formerly:; House of the Deadly Hand, Hunan, China
+Trivia: Within the Society the Champions are referred to as "Brother" and "Sister" but to outsiders they publicly address themselves with the title "Deadly" (Deadly Dagger, Deadly Sabre, etc.). However, several non-Society members such as Jimmy Woo and Wolverine have addressed the Champions as Brother or Sister instead of Deadly.
+History:
+After losing one of Society's Houses to Western invaders during the Boxer Rebellion, Zheng Zu relocated four of the five Houses outside of China, with each House hosting scores of Warriors with the best one being named the Champion of their House. Five of Zheng Zu's children would be raised in each of the Houses, with each of them emerging as the Champion of their respective House.; By the present day, the Society had devolved into a criminal empire bent on destroying the western world. After discovering his father's evil nature, his son Shang-Chi defected from the organization, embarking on a years long campaign to dismantle Zheng Zu's criminal empire, eventually resulting in Zu's death. Unbeknownst to Shang-Chi, he was the designated Champion of the House of the Deadly Hand, which was left in shambles following his conflict with his father.; After Zu's death, the title of Supreme Commander was passed onto his son, Brother Staff, who shifted the Society's goals to monetary gain rather than conquest. Staff's rule is challenged Sister Hammer, who usurped control from him following a duel to the death. Even though Zheng Zu's spirit selected Shang-Chi as his successor, Hammer named herself as the new Supreme Commander, prompting the remaining Champions Brother Sabre and Sister Dagger to seek out Shang-Chi to reclaim his rightful place as the Society's legitimate ruler.; Following Sister Hammer's defeat and defection from the Society, Shang-Chi embraced his role as Champion, Brother Hand, and became the new Supreme Commander of the Society. After discovering the existence of his exiled half-sister, Zhilan, Shang-Chi convinced her to rejoin the Society as the new Champion of the Deadly Staff. When Brother Sabre's theft of a Cosmic Cube led to a battle between the Society and the Avengers and their allies, Shang-Chi had Brother Sabre stripped of his title as Champion and handed him over to the Avengers. When Chieftain Xin created several Taotie to destroy anyone possessing the blood of Zheng Zu, Shang-Chi rescued Brother Sabre and Sister Hammer from these attacks and reinstated them as Champions of the Five Weapons Society.; The Champions of the Five Weapons Society traveled to Ta-Lo to stop Xin and rescue Jiang Li but were captured and imprisoned by the Jade Emperor for trespassing. After Xin donned his Taotie Mask, he went to the dungeons holding the Champions to destroy Zheng Zu's bloodline once and for all. Shang-Chi took the Ten Rings from the Emperor's vault to fight Xin, but lost six of the Rings to Xin, who defeated them with the Rings and immediately fled to the House of the Deadly Hand to join the Qilin Riders in destroying the Society. Shang-Chi used the remaining four Rings to protect himself and his siblings, which was witnessed by the Emperor, who then tasked the Champions with apprehending Xin and returning all of the Ten Rings, providing them with Qilin to travel back to Earth. At the House of the Deadly Hand, Shang-Chi confronted his grandfather again, but lost the remaining Rings to Xin, who then ordered the Riders to destroy New York City, prompting the other Champions to protect civilians. Shang-Chi gave in to his dark desires, reclaiming all of the Ten Rings from Xin and unlocking their full potential, but also gave him the appearance and personality of Zheng Zu. Shang-Chi used the Ten Rings to easily defeat Xin and the Qilin Riders, but before a corrupted Shang-Chi could execute Xin, the Champions and Jiang Li talked him down, freeing him from Zu's influence and sparing Xin. After the Society repaired the damage done to the city and Xin and the Ten Rings are returned to Ta Lo, the Champions go their separate ways, with Brother Sabre returning to the Vault to finish his remaining sentence, Sister Staff and Sister Dagger returning to their respective Houses and Sister Hammer leaving during the night, leaving Shang-Chi alone at the House of the Deadly Hand but his relationships with them improved.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City
+Equipment: Various pieces of alien technology that lets them emulate mutant powers.; Pieces of Magneto's helmet
+Transportation: Daycrawler a.k.a Nighty-Nightcrawler's teleportation.
+Notes: All members are patterned after prominent X-Men, with similarities in powers (or rather technology emulating powers), names and attire:; Cyclops-Lass (Buddy Bartholomew) is modeled after Cyclops (Scott Summers), one of the original X-Men.; Cherub (Gabe Brathwaite) is patterned after Angel/Archangel (Warren Worthington III), another original X-Man: Though his tech emits blast of sounds, he uses a power suit reminiscent of Archangel's appearance to fly. His codename relates as well to a Angels Choirs.; Marvel Guy (Benny Thomas), a teenager who uses pheromones to hypnotize people, is patterned after Marvel Girl (Jean Grey), another original X-Man.; Daycrawler (Jay Thomas) is patterned after Nightcrawler (Kurt Wagner), one of the new, international X-Men assembled after the original X-Men's apparent demise. He is a child with a teleporter who produces the "bamf" sound when teleporting, and his costume includes hands with seemingly only three digits (including thumbs) and feet with only two toes.; Gimmick (Carmen Maria Cruz) is based on Gambit (Remy LeBeau) (a thief and Marauder turned X-Man). She is the only mutant on the team, and with a completely different power set than Gambit.
+Trivia: Before their first full appearace in Children of the Atom Vol 1 1, the Children of the Atom made a cameo in the story "Race" from Marvel's Voices Vol 1 1 written by their co-creator, Vita Ayala. They appear as a group of civilians asking Forge for an autograph after he participates in the International Science Race Expo.
+History:
+The Children of the Atom were a group of young vigilantes of Cherub, Cyclops-Lass, Gimmick, and the brothers Marvel Guy and Daycrawler. Using alien technology, the group pretended to be mutants and their goal was to join Krakoa.; On their first mission, they stopped the depowered Hell's Belles during a robbery. After defeating them, they met the X-Men, who questioned why the team hadn't came to Krakoa yet. They invited them to come, but the Children said they weren't ready and Daycrawler teleported them away as the police was closing by (and susceptible to oppose the young mutants due to the Kamala's Law, a legislation banning teen vigilantes). During the night, the team made their way to a gateway but were unable to pass through and enter Krakoa.; Storm later revealed that Carmen was a mutant, when she was inviting her to the Hellfire Gala.

+Full name: Children of the Damned
+First appearance: Frankenstein Vol 1 18
+Created by: Bill Mantlo; Val Mayerik
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Mutates
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Castle Frankenstein
+Weapons: Some of the Children use primitive weapons, such as clubs and torches. Others appear to have natural weapons, such as fangs and claws.
+Notes: The Children made their first appearance in Frankenstein Vol 1 18 (1975). The story ends on a cliffhanger with the announcement "Next issue: Baroness von Frankenstein", but there was no next issue. There was a direct continuation of the story, published only in Germany and written by the series' German translator, in Das monster von Frankenstein #26, in which the Children help Victoria drug and torture the Monster so that the Monster regains his memories, and this story also ends on an unresolved cliffhanger.; In Das monster von Frankenstein #26, some of the Children received the names of Ajax, Bruno, Janos, and Pjotr.; The Children also appear in a story written by Jean-Marc Lofficier for Marvel Comics Presents, which was neither published nor, apparently, drawn.; In all of their appearances, the Children visually appear to be humans with apparent genetic disorders similar to dwarfism and dressed in period clothing. Only in Spider-Man Unlimited Vol 1 21 (1998), however, the Children appear as green-skinned creatures with claws and fangs, seemingly naked and with very little to do with their human origins that are suggested in their other appearances.; The entry on Switzerland in Marvel Atlas Vol 1 1 (2007) mentions the Children, describing them as misshapen creatures created by Victoria von Frankenstein's ancestors and cared by her. The Children are not mentioned in the Non-Human Population or Domestic Superhumans lists (although Frankenstein's Monster is).
+History:
+The Children of the Damned are dwarfish mutants, ill-fated creations of several ancient members of the Frankenstein Family, including Victor himself, but particularly Basil, who more famously made experiments for the Nazis during World War II, and his son, Ludwig, who created a doppelganger of the Silver Surfer that was defeated by the Surfer himself, while Ludwig was killed by his own manservant, Borgo, who apparently sacrificed his own life so that Ludwig would not kill the villagers in the barony. The Children were the prototypes and predecessors of the Frankensteins' more successful creatures. The amoral scientists discarded these misshapen creatures, keeping them imprisoned in the dungeons of Castle Frankenstein in the Swiss Alps.; When Ludwig died, the castle and the barony were inherited by his older child, Victoria von Frankenstein, who had been raised to consider these creatures as a surname-related shame to be hidden and ignored. Once Victoria found the jailed Children, she released them and became their guardian and caretaker instead. Knowledgeable of her family's history, the new Baroness Frankenstein knew how several of her ancestors were obsessed with their research to create monsters they then abused; she was known to feel guilty for their actions, and chose to have what the locals (apparently unaware of the Children's existence) considered a lonely life in the castle. The Children, grateful for her protection and attention, obsessively served the Baroness, calling her "Mother", and combed the nearby forest for intruders at her request; Victoria was interested in finding the first creation of her ancestors, Frankenstein's Monster, and add him to her entourage, and the Children knew of her goal. Some of the Children remained in the castle, including Igor, a hunchback who apparently served as her butler.; Frankenstein's Monster eventually came to wander through the Swiss Alps, looking for his own identity while befriending his travel companion, the also-confused robot the Berserker. The odd couple were found by a party of at least 16 Children, who ambushed and overcame them by sheer weight of numbers: Seven Children floored the Monster while the Berserker, having beaten at least one, was a victim of the frenzy of the others, reacting to the loss of their friend: the robot was beheaded by a blow with a stick, while the Monster witnessed the death of his friend helpless before being suffocated. Discarding the robot pieces, the Children carried the unconscious Monster to the Castle, and were forced to throw him through a steep hill, as they were unable to climb down carefully with the weight and trusted that the Monster was durable. They were received by Igor, who prompted them to chain the Monster to the dungeons with old, rusty iron chains. More and more Children, including at least a dozen who had not been with the ambushing party, looked at the newcomer with interest. When the Monster woke up, he broke the chains with his extraordinary strength and attacked the little men around him; this time, he had the initiative and the Children could not overpower him. Igor, knowing of the Monster's traditional fear of fire, tried to intimidate him with a torch, but the hunchback then slipped in a slime-covered stair and was battered by the Monster. The fight was interrupted by the sudden arrival of the Baroness Victoria Frankenstein, whose voice and presence intimidated the Monster, especially when she accused the Monster of being an evil, murderous creature who should not have friends and instead live only for the current holder of the Frankenstein barony. "Mother" helped the Monster recover memories of the death of his creator, and eventually the Monster came to live peacefully in the castle with "Mother" and the Children, who came to respect him as an older sibling.; The Children also found a strange winged horse, the Hellhorse, that had been the genetically-altered mount of the criminal the Black Knight (Nathan Garrett) before the latter's death. "Mother" tried to restore the creature to normal using the techniques and methods of one of her ancestors, but instead only mutated it further. She kept the horse in the castle.; The Children later found, in the wilderness, a debilitated, famished man with a weird metal mask permanently grafted to his head, and they took him to the castle for "Mother" to decide what to do with him. The man was Bram Velsing, an arrogant Latverian scientist who had been tortured by Doctor Doom and exiled from his native country for supposed crimes against Doom. "Mother" nursed Velsing back to health and either showed him the winged black horse, or Velsing found it on his own. In any case, the so-called Hellhorse gave Velsing an ambitious idea to create a suit of armor and a weapon for himself to become a Hellhorse-riding super-villain, leading an army of mutated creatures in a revenge plan against Doom. Becoming the Dreadknight, he captured "Mother" and threatened to kill the Children unless she give him Victor Frankenstein's secret notebooks - but she refused. The Dreadknight tortured her, to the Children's horror, and intimidated the Children with fear, convincing them that he was invincible, so that they would serve him.; Simultaneously, American super-hero Iron Man was flying over Europe when he was shot down near the Swiss border and fell, unconscious, near Castle Frankenstein. The Children, patrolling the area with the Monster, found him and mistrusted him, as they found Iron Man's metal mask to be similar to the Dreadknight's, and feared that Iron Man would also be an enemy; but the Monster insisted that they took him to the castle, thinking he could help them in their plight; the Monster asked the Children to hide the newcomer from the Dreadknight until "Mother" was informed. Unfortunately, Iron Man woke up at the castle's doors and, believing to be in distress, moved violently, which in turn convinced the Children to react with more violence, as they thought Iron Man wanted to kill them. Iron Man understood the problem, but the skirmish had attracted the attention of the Dreadknight, who attacked Iron Man, the Monster and the Children, overloaded Iron Man's armor and sent him to the dungeon with the Monster and "Mother," his armor still inoperative and kept that way with a high-tech shackling device. She told Iron Man the details of the situation, and the Dreadknight again tortured the Mother, wanting to get both Victor Frankenstein's and Iron Man's technological secrets. The Monster managed to release himself using sheer strength and started a fight against the Dreadknight, and Iron Man managed to sabotage his own bindings to join the fray. The Children did not join this battle, in which the Dreadknight threatened "Mother," but Iron Man saved her, and the Monster allowed the Dreadknight to fall from a chasm; the villain survived, though, although in a coma. Iron Man then helped mend the relationship between "Mother" and the Monster, so that the later two would help the Children together in a very human way. They also kept the Dreadknight in the castle for months, until the sorcerer Morgan Le Fay sneaked into the castle and magically cured the Dreadknight to use him as a minion in her own scheme in Ireland. Frankenstein's Monster eventually decided to leave the castle of his own volition, staying in good terms with the inhabitants.; The locals living in the barony started to like Baroness Frankenstein, believing she was watching over them from the castle. This led to the Baroness discovering that Borgo, servant to Victoria's father, had survived but suffered injuries that left him mute and paralysed, and was under the care of a local family, the Müllers. Borgo wanted to live in the castle again, and Victoria, moved by family responsibility, agreed. Borgo really wanted access to the X-Machine used by Ludwig to create the false Silver Surfer, believing he could use it to restore his damaged spine and legs; and "Mother" ordered the Children to remove debris from the machine and help repair it, hoping to mend her father's crimes. "Mother" personally operated the device to treat Borgo with a new lump of clay; but then Borgo became a new duplicate of the Silver Surfer - the "Frankensurfer". Borgo then revealed that his crippledness had filled him with hatred for mankind, and he started a rampage against mankind, including American wizard Doctor Strange; he also imprisoned the Baroness and the Children in the castle's dungeons. The locals were skeptical of the weird lights coming from the castle, noticed how a number of people disappeared recently, and were unhappy at the Baroness not protecting them as efficiently as she had once done. Strange tracked the threat to Castle Frankenstein, finding and releasing "Mother" and the Children, and discovering Borgo's involvement in his problem. Borgo then attacked the castle again, wanting to kill "Mother" lest she decided to use the machine again to take his powers from him; but Strange protected "Mother" and the Children. The superpowered battle over the castle attracted the attention from the locals, especially the Müllers who wanted to check on Borgo; and Borgo accidentally killed Frau Müller. Overcome by guilt, Borgo then committed suicide using his own powers and one of the Alps. Strange recovered Borgo's corpse and gave it to the Müllers and "Mother," before leaving himself.; Frankenstein's Monster returned to the castle and lived there again. The castle was then visited by Ivan, the deformed servant of Victoria's great-grandfather, Vincent Frankenstein, and was still alive because of the latter's treatments. Ivan had befriended the Monster back in the day, and claimed that he was then working for a researcher who could operate both Ivan and the Monster to remove their deformities and make them "real" - a Dr. Walston Kraft, who had a castle just 15 miles from there. The Monster, tempted, left with Ivan; but Ivan, fearing that Victoria could meddle in Kraft's plan, returned to Castle Frankenstein to imprison "Mother" in the dungeons once again. She remained on a cell for weeks, and only survived because the Children provided her with food and drink - but they were not strong enough to release her. Indeed, when Kraft arranged the International Council on Cloning and Genetic Research at his castle to argue about the ethics of that kind of experiments, the locals were surprised that the Baroness von Frankenstein had not appeared to protest against it. The symposium was covered by American photojournalist Peter Parker, secretly the super-hero Spider-Man, who investigated and, after seeing Ivan and the Monster, decided to visit Frankenstein's castle. Parker released the Mother using his superpowers, and listened to her explanations. Parker later uncovered, and foiled, Kraft's evil plan; Ivan was killed; and the Monster, understanding that he should not have trusted Kraft, left.; In the following years, the Baroness mended her relationship with the local community and helped in the economy, but the locals felt quite some activity in her castle. The Mother recovered the Monster's body - but at that point, it was suffering a massive cellular breakdown, with most of its meat having necrosis. She tried her best to keep him alive, but was failing. She recruited fugitive scientist Bruce Banner (also known as the monstruous Hulk, who was being chased by the U.S. military), offering him shelter in exchange for his services; the Children provided Banner with all of the supplies he needed. However, when Banner failed to cure the Monster, Victoria turned to her real plan all along, narcotizing Banner so that she could arrange a blood transfusion, as she correctly assumed that Banner's plasm's extraordinary regenerative properties would restore the Monster - and also release the Hulk, which "Mother" intended to use as a source of power for the experiment. Believing the Hulk to be a danger to "Mother," one of the Children, Fritz, contacted the U.S. military on his own initiative, hoping that the soldiers would kill the Hulk and Victoria's conscience would stay clean. The Hulk released himself, and Fritz was unable to stop him with a torch; but the Monster also recovered and, wanting to protect "Mother," confronted the Hulk. Once the fight was not an immediate danger to anyone but the fighters, "Mother" considered asking the Monster to stop, as she did not want anyone to die; but the military intervention led to a battle against both monsters. Frankenstein's Monster attacked Fritz, believing that Fritz was threatening "Mother," but she convinced the Monster to drop him; the Monster then joined the Hulk against the soldiers, and eventually left with "Mother" toward the forest. It is unclear what happened to the Children.; ===Strength Level===; The average member of the Children can lift at least 81.25 lbs, as four Children carried Frankenstein's Monster, who is known to weigh 325 lbs; but they do not have enough strength to break iron chains or the doors of Castle Frankenstein's prisons.; ===Powers and Abilities===; ====Powers====; If some of the Children were created by Basil Frankenstein, who died during World War II, and others by the 18th-century Victor Frankenstein, and they were left alone and forgotten in a cell until their discovery in recent times by Victoria von Frankenstein, who is around 73 years old now, then it is reasonable to infer that the Children have a lifespan longer than a human, and a capacity to survive with bare minimum resources for a long time.; ====Abilities====; The Children are not individually very good in combat, but they can outmaneuver a stronger enemy such as the Berserker android and Frankenstein's Monster, using superior numbers, surprise factor, knowledge of the terrain, and aggressive tactics such as smothering the enemy in a pond, with the advantage that they have great courage and are willing to die individually if it would accomplish "Mother"'s goals. The Children supposedly go into the woods to "hunt", but are apparently combing the woods around the castle for intruders, who will be taken before "Mother" for judgment.; The Children have limited education, but they know how to follow specific instructions (such as a protocol with a trill to be allowed access to the castle, or chaining a prisoner), and they demonstrate resourcefulness and versatility in unforeseen situations. They have obtained food for "Mother" when she was locked up, have served her tea in social situations, and obtained human organs and medical supplies by means unspecified. They have also made phone calls on their own initiative to others. The Children know how to clean and maybe repair other Frankensteins' machinery, but not how to operate it, even with specific instructions.; The Children seem to speak English and, in some cases, German as well.; ===Personality===; The Children obsessively serve "Mother" in return for she having cared for them and protected them for years. In some cases, like Fritz, their fierce loyalty is complemented by the idea of love for "Mother." When Frankenstein's Monster is active in the group, the other Children obey him as a field leader because they perceive him as the firstborn among the Children. In some cases, they show initiative that "Mother" may disapprove of or find counterproductive; the Children have shown that they do not have advanced intellectual abilities and therefore can make serious mistakes.; When "Mother" is captured by other people, the Children do not dare to defy the captor, because they fear anyone who is capable of breaking "Mother"'s protection, and therefore they obey the instructions of the villain even reluctantly, without challenging him. However, they make sure that "Mother" is in the best possible situation, bringing her food and taking care of her while she is locked up; the villains know that the Children will not try to free her from her if she is forbidden, and so they manage to keep her alive.

+The Children of Tomorrow are led by The Maker of Earth-1610, who traveled to Earth-6160 and reshaped it to his image with the Immortus Engine. Stationed in the City, Latveria, the Children of Tomorrow fought against Kang, his army and Iron Man who betrayed the Maker after the City's temporal shields were temporarily disabled. Stark intervened in the fight between Kang and the Maker, empowered by a second Immortus Engine, using it to blast both of them as well as both of their armies, which seemingly killed the combatants.; By 4362 A.D., the Children of Tomorrow remained the only life in the entire universe. They were all genetically identical to one another, with no difference between them, and incapable of developing new mutations. They were originally members of various alien species who had been converted against their will by the Celestials who had fallen under the control of the Maker. Serving the Maker's vision of the world, the Celestials converted all life in the universe into the Children of Tomorrow, leaving Earth for last. Having been brainwashed during their conversion, the Children became loyal to the Maker and extremely hostile against anyone who was different from them.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Affiliation: Formerly:; Army of Evil
+Equipment: Ringmaster's Hat
+Weapons: No known weapons
+Transportation: No known transportation
+Trivia: The Circus of Crime first appeared in the Captain America comic from the 1940s. Also, there were two different Circuses of Crime in the 19th century that were fought by Kid Colt and the West Coast Avengers.; Matt Murdock once offered to defend the Circus in court after having helped Spider-Man defeat them.
+History:
+=== Origin ===; Tiboldt's Circus was originally a small Austrian travel circus managed for generations by members of the Tiboldt family. In the 1930s Fritz Tiboldt, then manager and ringmaster of the circus, became active in Nazi party activities.; ===World War II===; During World War II, he was asked by German intelligence to take his circus to the United States of America, supposedly just to give performances in major cities, but actually in order to use the talents of the Nazi sympathizers among his performers to murder government high officials. Fritz Tiboldt brought with him Omir the Snake Charmer, Tommy Thumb, the Trapeze Trio, and Zandow the Strongman. However, Tiboldt, who came to be known as the "Ringmaster Of Death," was captured by Captain America, and both Tiboldt and the members of his circus who had aided him in his subversive activities ported.; ===Post War===; Fritz Tiboldt and his wife Lola continued to manage Tiboldt's Circus after the war. Eventually Fritz and Lola Tiboldt were murdered by Nazis in vengeance for their cooperation with the Allies. Fritz's son, Maynard Tiboldt, thereupon succeeded him as leader and ringmaster of the circus, and decided to move it to America, far from the scene of Hitler's rise to power and his parents' death.; ===Keibler's Circus===; Once in America, he took over the Keibler's Circus renaming it as Tiboldt's Circus.; Unable to compete successfully with larger American circuses. Blaming Americans not only for ignoring his circus, but also for his father's humiliating capture in America years before, Tiboldt decided to turn to crime. If Americans would not enrich him and his performers willingly, they would be forced to do so. Tiboldt outlined his plans to the members of his troupe, a number of whom had accompanied him from Europe, and others of whom had joined the troupe after it came to America. A good percentage of the troupe quit, refusing to turn to a life of crime. However, a surprising number of the circus members eagerly agreed to join Tiboldt in his criminal endeavors, and they became the first members of what is known as the Circus of Crime.; ===Modern Era===; The Circus of Crime's usual modus operandi was the following: They would give a performance before a large audience. At some point the Ringmaster would use the powerful mind-control device concealed in his hat to put the audience into a trance. The Circus members then robbed the audience, who would remember nothing about the thefts when the Ringmaster released them from the trance and the performance continued. The Circus of Crime performed under different names so that audiences would not suspect that they were the Circus of Crime.; They clashed with superheroes on a regular basis, mostly with the Hulk who was also one of the first they encountered. After a string of robberies, they tried to rob Rick Jones's town he summoned the Hulk (who at the time had a link with Rick) and stopped the circus.; They also fought with Spider-Man, the Avengers, and others. They brought Black Goliath under their control, but were defeated by Power Man.; Over the years the membership of the Circus of Crime varied, although there was a core group that participated in most of its criminal ventures. The Ringmaster and his accomplices were imprisoned by the law numerous times, but rarely for long, given the difficulties of proving the charges against them, since their victims usually had no memory of being robbed by them. Occasionally the Circus of Crime operated without the Ringmaster, either because he was in prison, or because some members had become dissatisfied with his leadership. However, he always returned as leader.; The Circus of Crime returned to New York as the "Cirque de Nuit" to inaugurate the Hotel Metropol in a show where Ringmaster used his mind-control abilities to hypnotize the rich spectators of his show and stole from them. During this time, he has new members like Fifi and an unnamed protege of Swordsman. The two Hawkeyes, Clint Barton and Katie Bishop, used special glasses in order to be immune to Ringmaster's control and stopped the Circus, leaving most of their members heavily wounded. They escaped in the boat where the Circus took the loot, making them appear as they were the thieves.; Circus members Ringmaster, Clown, Fire-Eater, Great Gambonnos, Strongman, and Teena the Fat-Lady were among the villains that joined the Army of Evil.

+History:
+===Overview===; China Force (中国队, pronounced "Zhōngguó duì") was a national super-hero team of the People's Republic of China. They were created by the leading communist government to combat superhuman threats and disasters and to counter the growing number of heroes being formed in the west and especially the United States of America. Each member of the team is assigned a code-name from the Chinese Zodiac.; ===Events===; When their member Dei Guan, known as the Jade Dragon, appeared in Canada after mysteriously disappearing, China Force was sent to retrieve him. While en route, they fell under the influence of the Dreamqueen and were diverted to West Edmonton Mall. There, they fought Alpha Flight, mistakenly thinking that they were in China. After the battle, the team returned to China with Guan after Pathway opened a trans-dimensional portal.; After returning to China, Guan officially defected from China Force and became a member of a small resistance group (3Peace) who opposed China's approach to super-humans. China Force battled against the group and the Mutant Liberation Front. During the battle, Rabbit was killed by Reignfire.; They have since been apparently disbanded and been replaced by the People's Defense Force.

+Notes: The Chosen are seemingly an equivalent to the Eternals being great-powered human-looking individuals, opposed to physically deformed Rejects who seemingly stands for their world Deviants.
+History:
+On a planet far from Earth, the Celestials visited and evolved the native species, much like the mutants, Deviants and Eternals of Earth. The beings evolved into super powered beings, some of them having outward alterations and other having interior alterations. The two groups began to segregate and the physically deformed beings became known as the Rejects, while the other, more humanoid, group became the Chosen. The Celestials, who were called "Space Gods", returned four times and judged both groups, finding them acceptable and leaving them to progress until their next appearance. The Space Gods were worshiped and considered saviors by both the Rejects and the Chosen, each group praying to the Celestials to sway the gods to their own petty purposes.; After believing that the Space Gods did not hear their prayers, a third group emerged, compromised of both Rejects and Chosen, calling themselves, the Beginagains. Eventually, all groups began to become envious of each other and the whole planet began to war with each other. The Chosen began to build huge cities, while the Rejects moved to the forests and woods. The Beginagains moved underground, so as to not be seen with either group.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-1610
+Notes: Unlike their Earth-616 counterpart, the Shi'ar are not an alien race, they are a human religious sect.
+History:
+===Religion===; The Shi'ar Enlightenment Church is a religious sect. The Church's dogma is said to have been created from alien knowledge that was granted to them from an ability to communicate with the Phoenix Force.; The Shi’ar Enlightenment dogma holds that the Phoenix was once an entity of creation, travelling the universe changing worlds at its whim, and always for the better. However, the Phoenix had created beings on the worlds it encountered. These beings grew to resent the Phoenix and covet its power, wishing to use it to control their own destinies. They amassed a great army, bringing together a hundred civilizations. The war with the Phoenix lasted a thousand years and cost the alien alliance many lives. In the end, the Phoenix was defeated. The alien alliance could not destroy the Phoenix, so they constructed a special prison around it, a cage that would be powerful enough to contain it.; The Shi'ar adherents believe that the alien alliance created the planet Earth around the Phoenix to serve as a prison. They believe that the Phoenix resides at the molten core - or perhaps, is the molten core of the Earth. Long after the civilizations of the alien alliance had become extinct, life began to form and evolve on Earth. The Phoenix detected life on Earth, and began to aid in its development. They believe that the leaps and bounds humans experienced in evolution were shepherded by the Phoenix's influence.; The first adherents of the Shi’ar Enlightenment claimed to be able to communicate directly with the Phoenix, though this art has been lost through the years. They created various tomes containing the contents of these communications, which they passed down through the ages. The tomes are the basis of a philosophy of rebirth and self-improvement, which makes up the Shi'ar belief system. The Phoenix also communicated a prophecy: That a mortal would, one day, host the entity, and eventually allow it to be reborn. This would free the Phoenix to roam free once again and bring about a utopia for all the denizens of the universe.; Several centuries ago, a group of the Shi'ar, calling themselves the Hellfire Club, split away, seeing the Phoenix as a being of destruction. The Shi'ar claim that the Hellfire Club twisted their philosophies and doctrines to their own agendas, changing the interpretation for their own ends.; ===Finding the Avatar===; After the formation of the X-Men, the Shi'ar Church learned of the young mutant, Jean Grey, and believed her to be the avatar and/or host of the Phoenix. The Majestrix of the Church, Lilandra, contacted Charles Xavier, Headmaster of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, offering him funding in exchange for permission to test Grey. Xavier agreed only when Grey consented to the testing. Lilandra and her assistant Gerald Lavine performed the tests using their tomes, which contained scientific data to assist in discovering the identity of the host. However, the tests resulted in the Phoenix force seemingly manifesting. The Phoenix threatened to kill Lilandra and only the timely intervention of Xavier returned Grey to normal. Afterwards, Lavine revealed that the tests showed that Grey's blood contained none of the properties enumerated in the tomes and that she was not the host of the Phoenix. Lavine claimed that Grey’s parents were members of the Shi’ar Church and that she must have fixated on the symbol of the Phoenix as a means to come to terms with her powers. However, Lavine was actually a member of the Hellfire Club, and he was hiding the fact that the analysis had revealed that Grey's blood was an exact match.; Lilandra, unaware of his allegiances, placed Lavine in Xavier's school ostensibly to aid Grey in her search for answers. Instead, Lavine spied on Grey under the orders of Shinobi Shaw, another member of the Hellfire Club. Eventually, when Shaw visited the school, he and Gerald attacked Grey in an attempt to capture her. This failed, as the Phoenix manifested, almost killing both Shaw and Gerald. Afterwards they were taken into police custody and Lilandra was forced to face that fact that Lavine had betrayed her.

+History:
+The Circle is a brotherhood based on Arthurian ideals and lead by Arthur, with the main purpose to defend Symkaria from Doctor Doom and Latveria. During an auction run by A.I.M., the Circle bought part of the replicated Extremis technology, creating new and better exoskeletons for their own purposes.; After they noticed Iron Man was in the search of the Extremis which A.I.M. stole, Arthur proposed Stark a wager: if Stark defeated the Circle's Extremis-enhanced pilots, he would be free to retrieve the Extremis. During the battle, Stark noticed a that the Circle's force field which protected their sample of Extremis was light-permeable, being able to destroy their Extremis using a potent U.V. laser causing the loss of all the Extremis they had left and rendering them unable to continue producing new technologies of their own.; When the powerful material Phlogistone was found in the Moon, the Circle was sent to Tranquility Gulch, the human colony from which the Phlogistone was studied, as representatives of Symkaria. They later helped Iron Man attack the embassy of the country of their common enemy, Doctor Doom, in an attempt to prevent any Phlogistone from reaching Doom's hands. During the battle, Gawain died, but the Doombot army was destroyed and the Latverian presence in the Moon removed.; The Circle ended up in Aniana to arrest members of X-Force for the theft of stolen goods but instead they ended up in a battle against Cannonball and Shatterstar when the two refused.

+As part of their vengeance against their abusive father Kang, the Apocalypse Twins plotted to use the Celestials to destroy Earth by framing the planet for the death of a Gardener. Not only did they intend to destroy humanity and save mutantkind, they also wished to completely wipe out Kang's empire by eradicating the Earth and its futures.; The Twins' actions caused Kang's timeline to crumble from a time storm. Kang escaped before his timeline was erased and he saved a few others whose timelines were also being unwritten. They were Stryfe, Venom, Iron Man 2020, Doom 2099, Ahab, Magistrate Elizabeth Braddock, and Deathlok Abomination. Later, Thor relunctantly joined this group.; The Twins' Tachyon Dam was preventing time travel which had stopped Kang or Immortus from interferring with their plans. Many years after the Twins won, Havok decided to destroy the Dam to receive help from Immortus but ended up with Kang and the Chronos Corps instead. Using their combined technologies, the Corps sent the minds of the surviving Avengers Unity Division back in time, as the Tachyon Dam only prevented physical time travel. After doing so, the Twins' timeline began to crumble.; Back in the past, the Avengers successfully stopped the Twins' plan, but it was all part of Kang's own greater plan to steal the power of a Celestial. Seeing that they were outmatched, the Chronos Corps were forced to help him. Immortus' forces arrived to stop Kang and the Avengers Unity Division managed to prevent Kang from gaining the power of the Celestial. With Kang defeated, he and the Chronos Corps left the timeline.

He rushed to the circus and found Gunter, who had been hypnotized by the Ringmaster, leader of the Circus of Crime. The Ringmaster revealed the letter was a trap for Nightcrawler and hypnotized him too, making him the new member of the circus.; The Power family was visiting the fair where the Circus of Crime had set up their tent. Katie however didn't want to go in since she was afraid of clowns, so Julie and Alex took her to get some popcorn while Dr. Power, Margaret and Jack went to the circus. Along with the rest of the audience, they fell victim to the Ringmaster's hypnotism. When Alex, Katie and Julie finally came to join their parents, they saw the circus members rob the audience and suited up to stop them. They managed to take away Ringmaster's hat and prevent Princess Python from harming the audience, but the tides turned against them when Ringmaster summoned Nightcrawler to fight the heroes. Katie was able to use the ringmasters hat to undo the hypnotism and free Nightcrawler from Ringmasters' control. With Nightcrawler now on their side, Power Pack defeated the Circus of Crime and locked them away.

+The Chrono-Bandits were a group of time-traveling criminals active across prehistoric eras. During one of their schemes, they journeyed to a period roughly 200 million years in the past and attempted to extort the modern world by threatening a primitive amphibious creature they claimed was among the first animals to emerge from the oceans onto land.; Their plan was interrupted when the Fantastic Four encountered them while traveling through time. Demanding that the United Nations negotiate with them, the Bandits briefly held the creature at gunpoint before being swiftly neutralized. Susan Storm used a force field to scatter the criminals, while Reed Richards secured the endangered animal.; The Chrono-Bandits were subsequently taken into custody, bringing their unusual prehistoric ransom attempt to an abrupt end.

These four performers, so-called "Circus of the Lost Souls", were last seen around the Circus of Crime's marquee, after the Circus of Crime had been defeated; but it is unclear what happened to them next.

+History:
+According to Zarrko, the Chronarchists took advantage from the shattering of the timestream, changing past events for their purposes. When the S.H.I.E.L.D. branch for temporal anomalies (T.I.M.E.) became aware of that, they started working with Zarrko trying to stop them, but they eventually had to call Hulk for a mission through space and time to stop the time manipulators.; Hulk found the first Chronarchist, Tok Baltusar in the Old West, enslaving a small town to extract a "temporal metal" from local mines. Bruce joined Rawhide Kid, Two-Gun Kid and Kid Colt to fight against Tok's dinosaur hordes. The three gunslingers were eventually able to hit Tok's armor, damaging that enough to send him back into the timestream.; The Green Giant was then sent right to Camelot, where he learnt that the second Chronarchist, Valdar Ahd had taken the power becoming the new ruler of King Arthur's realm. With the help of the Black Knight and Merlyn, Hulk was able to send back another enemy into the timestream.; The last Chronarchist, Khotto was revealed to be in the place where the first Gamma Bomb exploded, saboting that bomb by putting a small fragment of the "temporal element" inside that; as the Hulk came along, the bomb exploded, empowering the hero beyond every limit. At that point the small robot R.O.B. downloaded Bruce Banner's mind inside his past self, just to see Khotto standing in front of him with a flying screen from which Zarrko was watching the situation from the present: the Tomorrow Man explained that he had been always a member of the Chronarchists, allying with Khotto agaisnt the other two in order to get an "Uberhulk" to conquer the whole timestream. Bruce tried to change the history using Khotto's armor to travel back in time before the bomb exploded, but that didn't work and Banner found himself right on Uberhulk's way; in that moment, a fragment of the temporal element flew in front of him and Bruce took that, changing his history and turning himself into the Hulk. The angry Giant then broke the time barrier with one punch, grabbing Zarrko from the present, the two enemies were trying to convince the Hulk leaving them, when Zarrko's mysterious Masters appeared apparently disintegrating them.

Iron Mask wore a clown costume to gain safe entry into the city. He was wearing his signature armor beneath the disguise. The Circus members were surprised when they realized that their old foe Arizona was also present in the city, as he wanted to petition the governor for a pardon for his crimes. The Circus' members were hired as entertainers for the governor's dance.; The Circus members revealed their criminal intentions during the dance, and they started robbing the wealthy people who attended the dance. Having broken out of a jail cell, Kid Colt arrived at the dance to face his foes. Colt easily defeated the Iron Mask's teammates, but the Mask fled out of town. Colt and the Iron Mask had a rematch in a cave. The Mask's armor rendered him invulnerable to Colt's bullets, but Colt still managed to knock him out.

+Reality: Earth-4935

+History:
+In the late 37th-early 39th century, Clan Chosen was an Askani-inspired team of freedom fighters, formed originally by Nathan Dayspring, Tetherblood, and Aliya, following the destruction of the Askani Sisterhood by the New Canaanites led by Tribune Haight and the rise of Stryfe.; Nathan was determined to carry-on the Askani legacy as the guerrilla army the Clan Chosen, a group that eventually included A.D.A.M. Unit Eleven, Aliya's sister Hope, father and son Adam and Jon Spectre, Dawnsilk, Lark, Sepulcher, and Silo. Nathan became the foremost military leader of the New Canaanites opposition and continued the ways of the Askani.; Training in the Askani ways under surviving Askani elders, the Clan Chosen repeatedly battled the New Canaanites and the Scions of the High Lord, led by Stryfe. The Clan Chosen also clashed with the Neo-Canaanites, a group that also wished to claim Apocalypse's power. Around Nathan's sixteenth birthday, one of the Canaanite forces had been infecting members of the Clan Chosen with nanite explosives, turning them into unwilling suicide bombers. Nathan and a squad attacked the Siberian Facility, where the nanites were controlled, and learned that one of his clan was infected. Nathan attempted to destroy their ability to trigger the bombs, by destroying the facility, but the clan member was still active. Fearing for his life, the clan member ran to his teammates, but Nathan, attempting to save the remaining lives of the squad, was forced to detonate the nanite.; When Stryfe's spy, Korless, infiltrated the Clan and Stryfe psychically attacked Nathan, Stryfe captured Tetherblood and the Professor from Nathan's camp and Stryfe tortured Tetherblood to find out its importance. The withdraw of the Professor from Nathan caused him to become very sick and Blaquesmith sent Aliya to the past to find Cable, the adult Nathan. Aliya was successful, though she and Nathan were unaware of Cable's true origin. Cable returned with the Professor's A.I., which again merged with Nathan.; Nathan fell in love with Aliya and the two married. Aliya took the clan name of 'Jenskot' as a tribute to Jean and Scott, the parents of the Askani'son. Later, Jenskot was captured, during a New Canaanite raid and, while she did not speak of her time as a prisoner, it was hinted that she was tortured and raped by Stryfe. Eventually, Nate was able to rescue her. Jenskot later gave birth to her son, Tyler Dayspring, and Nathan never questioned his parentage. Tyler later came to join his father’s band of freedom fighters and, during a later attack by Stryfe's forces, a bomb was set and Aliya was fatally wounded. Aliya died in Nathan's arms and asked him to take care of her son, unaware that Tyler had been abducted. Stryfe ordered Parridan Haight's mind-warper, Frisco, to brainwash Tyler to reject Nathan’s beliefs and become Stryfe’s pawn.; When the Clan Chosen attacked Stryfe, Tyler captured Dawnsilk, forging a neural link between them to gain Clan Chosen secrets. Nathan decided to sever the link, by shooting his son, in order to save Dawnsilk. This knocked Tyler out and further damaged his and Dawnsilk's mind as well. During another battle, Nathan and Tetherbood lead a squad to obtain Captain America's Shield, which Nathan used to inspire liberty and justice in his followers. After the Neo-Canaanites defeated the New Canannites, Nathan learned that Stryfe used the Tinex and, with the A.D.A.M. Unit Zero, fled, traveling back in time to the late 20th century. As part of his mission as the Askani'son, Nathan returned to the 20th century to foil the plans of Stryfe and preserve Apocalypse's rise to power. Nathan, now calling himself Cable, shuttled between the past and future multiple times.; After Cable and Kane were injured in battle with Stryfe, Cable took Kane to Applecrust, in the future, where they were able to enhance his cybernetic prosthetics. Kane stayed with the Clan Chosen, while waiting for Cable to return. Cable returned to Kane in Applecrust and aided the Clan Chosen in battling a group of Flatliners. The Clan Chosen decided to send Kane home and destroy the Tinex, the time-travel nexus, within Niagara Falls. After battling their way to the core, Cable requested to speak to the Professor on Graymalkin and the computer announced that Graymalkin did not exist where it once was. After finding Graymalkin, Cable decided to follow Kane into the core and stop whoever used the Tinex last.

+History:
+The Committee was a secret organization of anonymous businessmen and financiers. Their purpose was to stimulate what they perceive to be a sinking global economy by any means available to them. Many of the Committee's practices are ethically questionable, and usually illegal. To promote consumerism, Committee members were known to implement a doctrine of fear to "shock" the private sector into investing in various enterprises. One of the earliest examples of this practice involved their decision to employ the disfigured Sarnak, Master of Sound, to create "an army of fear" so that citizens spend more because they feel unsafe. These efforts brought the Committee into conflict with Jack Russell – also known by the sobriquet, the Werewolf by Night. The Committee's involvement with the Russell family included Jack's stepfather, Philip Russell – who was being blackmailed via his wife Laura. When Philip refused to pay, they had her killed - leading Jack to believe that his step-father had been responsible.; Despite their frequent conflicts with the Werewolf, the Committee's most persistent adversary has been the lunar avenger, Moon Knight. At first, Moon Knight had been on the Committee's payroll, and offered $10,000 to bring them the Werewolf, but he soon turned against them and actively sought to bring them down.; ===The New Committee===; The Egyptian God of Vengeance, Khonshu, felt that his avatar Moon Knight had lost the drive to act as his instrument of vengeance. As Moon Knight's spirit began to falter, so too did Khonshu's power. Khonshu influenced the sons and daughters of the Committee to re-establish themselves and embark upon a course of action to secretly revitalize Moon Knight. The individual Committee members were ignorant of Khonshu's subtle influence over them, but their desire to avenge their predecessors against Moon Knight was strong.; They hired the mercenary known as Bushman to mutilate Marc Spector, but with instructions to leave him alive. Bushman succeeded in this task, but at the cost of his own life. Crippled and broken, Marc Spector fell into a state of despondency and chemical dependency.; The Committee meanwhile initiated the second phase of their plan to destroy Moon Knight. They hired a consultant known as the Profile who provided them with a detailed psychological analysis of Marc Spector's state of mind. The Committee acted upon this information too quickly however and sent a hired gun to severely beat up Marc's close ally, Jean-Paul Duchamp and make it look like a random act of violence. Rather than weakening Spector's resolve even further, the attack against Jean-Paul actually gave him a reason to live. Although this permutation ran counter to the Committee's designs, it served to satisfy Khonshu's goals. His instrument of vengeance was back.; The Committee attempted to clean up their mess by hiring the Taskmaster to take Moon Knight out. The Taskmaster raided Spector's apartment but was unable to kill him. Spector piloted his Moon-chopper to the Committee's Manhattan headquarters and flew the chopper directly into their office. Miraculously, all of the Committee members survived the attack.

+History:
+===Origins===; In 1168 A.D., a man named Adam was born in the small Saxon village of Ravenscroft in England. Adam had a near-fatal accident when he was sixteen, but he miraculously recovered after a dream about a strange, inhuman woman. He was renamed Adam of Destine by the town, who felt the young man was destined for greatness. Adam joined the Third Crusade under Richard the Lionheart. During the battles, Adam was never once injured and he believed that the "angel" he dreamed about protected him. He became overconfident and was captured by a warlord called Al Kadhdhaab. When he awoke, Kadhdhaab claimed that he needed Adam's help to defeat the wizard Sujanaa min Raghbah. Sujanaa had a large gem with mystical powers that fulfilled his wishes. In a vision Sujanaa had seen that Adam was destined to kill him and somehow Kadhdhaab had seen this as well. Adam entered Sujanaa's palace and attacked Sujanaa but was easily overcome by the wizard's power. The wizard ranted that his gem loved Adam, and would not allow Sujanaa to hurt him.; Adam managed to distract the wizard by telling him that Sujanaa had wasted his life: all his power was only being used to protect his power. The wizard realised that he had become trapped by his own desire for power and during a moment of doubt, Adam was freed and killed the wizard. Adam then felt that there was something alive within the gem and tried to destroy its prison, but Kadhdhaab stabbed him in the back. Kadhdhaab tried to take the power of the gem for himself, but Adam managed to destroy the gem with the last of his strength. A female genie, Elalyth, appeared from the gem and destroyed Kadhdhaab. She then restored Adam, making him immortal and invulnerable and the two became lovers.; Adam and Elalyth's first child, Jasmine was born in 1192, with their second child, Thaddeus, being born in 1193.; In 1209, Cuckoo travelled to Ravenscroft to meet her paternal grandparents for the first time. After their meeting, the ancestral estate was established and has been in their family ever since.; Sometime between 1210 and 1370, with his curiosity piqued by tales of Marco Polo and Genghis Khan, Adam ventured into Asia (and specifically China) several times.; Between 1217 and 1272, Thaddeus joined the Knights Templar and participated in the Crusades.; Albert was born in 1323.; In the winter of 1374, Thaddeus and Adam were escorting Albert to a monastery where he could recover from the sorrow of his inability to stave off the black plague. On the Tibetan Plateau, their party encountered the rogue Inhuman, Tral, controlling an attacking horde. Tral killed Thaddeus by blasting him off a cliff. Albert was so enraged by the murder of his beloved brother that he impulsively used his powers to kill Tral. After the death of Tral, Adam and Albert met members of the Inhuman royal family.; Gracie was born in 1503.; In 1519, Cuckoo's host body was a Spanish nobleman. Eager to explore the New World, Cuckoo joined Cortés's Conquistadores and brought along his young sister, Gracie, posing as a young man and his personal valet. In Mexico, the pair longed to study the Aztec people and culture, but Cortés was only interested in gold. The pair separated during a battle, leaving Gracie with the Aztecs. Wanting to explore their magics, Gracie accidentally unleashed the demon Synraith. Gracie managed to seal the dimensional rift with the aid of Cuckoo. However, she knew that Synraith would try to return to Earth and dedicated her life to find a way to stop that from happening.; Florence was born in 1531.; In 1615, Adam was travelling to meet Gracie and Albert, who were in Japan protecting the Shogun Tokugawa during a coup. During his journey, in the Sayan Mountains, Adam encountered an alien race preparing to invade Earth and single handedly repelled them.; Maurice was born in 1695. Newton was born in 1774. Walter was born sometime between 1775-1800.; During the 1840s, Walter serves in the British Military and fought in the Opium War in Shanghai.; In 1849, Adam, Flo, Maurice, Gracie and Cuckoo (in the body of an Indian man) infiltrate The Guild and slew four Guild brothers.; In 1854, Walter serves in the British Military and fought in the Battle of Balaclava during the Crimean War.; In 1857, Walter was stationed in Delhi, India and fought in the Sepoy Mutiny.; During the 1860s in Japan, Cuckoo lived in a new host body, a Japanese female and went by the name Natsume Masako. During this time, she met, fell in love with, and married Prince Sakai Masaaki. In 1889, Cuckoo and Prince Sakai Masaaki moved to Paris. While living in Paris, Cuckoo was attacked by the vampire Marietta Borgezia. With her host body dying, Cuckoo took possession of Borgezia's body. Later, she met a group of vampires sired by Borgezia who regained their souls when Cuckoo expelled the dark spirit from Borgezia's body.; ===Relative Strangers===; Predicting the advent of technology, Newton developed the Relative Stranger Protocol. The protocols would create new identities for the long-lived family members whenever they required it and would protect the family should one of them be uncovered.; Between 1914 and 1918, Walter serves in the British Military and fought in the bloody Passiondale Campaign during World War I.; In 1944 during World War II, Walter's station was attacked by the Nazis using a large robotic war machine. The war machine was confronted by the Invaders (Captain America, the Sub-Mariner, and the Human Torch), but it rendered them unconscious. Walter then transformed and destroyed the robot before fleeing from Allied soldiers, who happened on the scene and thought he was in league with the Nazis.; Samantha was born in 1951.; In 1963, many of the members of Clan Destine gathered for a family photo in Ravenscroft Manor.; In 1969, Maurice, Newton, Sebastian, Will, Dominic, and Vincent attended Woodstock using Adam's VW van.; In the recent past, Gracie and Cuckoo banished Synraith from Earth with the help of Charles Xavier. However, Gracie erased Xavier's memories of the event.; In the late 20th century, Adam killed Vincent, one of his sons, who had been abusing his powers. The family fell apart after that, several of the family members disagreeing with Adam's decision and Adam left Earth in a vehicle created by Newton. The newly born twins, Rory and Pandora, were left with Walter Destine, who posed as their uncle and legal guardian, and Flo, who posed as their grandmother.; ===Crimson Crusader and Imp===; Rory and Pandora's powers activated far earlier than those of their siblings, because they were twins. The children, believing they were mutants decided to become superheroes. As the Crimson Crusader and Imp, they set out to battle crime. One evening they found two groups fighting each other over a special device: the creature Lenz and his "children" and Dr. Hywel Griffin and his Omegans. Not knowing which side to help, the children grabbed the device, and left the scene, intending to return the device once they found out who the rightful owner was.; The Gryphon turned out to be a device that could change the genetic sequence of living creatures. Lenz, a former human scientist turned into a new species by A.I.M. hoped to use the Gryphon to stabilize his "children", who usually died within several days. Griffin was an albino who hoped to cure himself with the Gryphon. Both parties tried to track down the Destine twins. During the twins' attempt to flee, Pandora had lost her cape, which had the name of their sister, Kay Cera, in it, who had designed it. Lenz sent his children out to kill Kay and they found the history of the Clan Destine in Kay's notebook. Kay herself survived by transferring her mind into a cat. Lenz's creatures attacked the various members of the Clan Destine, killing Florence and Maurice.; Most of the other family members united and tracked down Griffin, whom they thought responsible for the deaths of Flo and Maurice. Lenz appeared and kidnapped Rory, but they were all saved in time by Adam who had felt the death of his children and returned to Earth. Adam defeated Lenz, but let him go when he realised that Lenz was not evil, just trying to let his species survive.; The Clan Destine returned home and Walter forced the children to return to school and live normal lives, even threatening to split them up after they caused trouble. The children fled to New York to become full time superheroes, but Spider-Man convinced them to return home. In return Adam and Walter, following Dominic's advice, would pose as superheroes to help and watch Rory and Pandora during their missions.; ===X-Men===; Synraith attempted to enter the Earthly plane by abducting the only three individuals who could stop him: Gracie Gamble, Cuckoo, and Charles Xavier. By corrupting the Danger Room, Synraith tried to manipulate the X-Men and the Clan Destine into fighting each other. Luckily, Adam discovered the ruse and the combined efforts of the X-Men and Clan Destine were able to permanently banish Synraith.; Following their run-in with the X-Men, the older members of Clan Destine again tried to scare the twins from wanting to be superheroes with a "Danger Room" style exercise using Newton's robots. Unfortunately for Walter, the exercise only solidified the twins' resolve.; ===Final Fight with the Omegans===; Dr. Griffin and the Omegans again attacked the Destines. In the course of the attack, what happened to Thaddeus in 1374 was revealed. Newton built a device to help Dominic ameliorate the effects of his powerful senses. Dominic also travelled through time and space, and encountered the superhero group Excalibur. Walter also struggled with his fears of becoming like Vincent. Adam reduced Griffin to an infant, and told the Omegans never to threaten his family again, before being reunited with Elalyth, the mother of his children, whom he went to live in Yden with. Dominic decided to relocate to the idyllic Ethera. Unknown to anyone, a pool of energy emerged from the grounds of the Ravenscroft, and flew into Vincent's grave, causing the gravestone to crack.; ===Vincent's Return===; The Thing, Human Torch and Doctor Strange encountered an interdimensional rift whose energy hurled them on a journey through time and space, during which they came into contact with the Destine family at various points in history. Thing in particular encountered Vincent as a young boy, and then as a young man, and was present at his death. Vincent was tortured by his inability to use his powers to stop the pain and suffering in the world, and was revealed to have been possessed by demons who were trying to delay Doctor Strange in healing the dimensional rift. Fearing the destruction Vincent's powers were unleashing and for his son's soul, Adam fatally snapped Vincent's neck. The dimensional energy was driven away, and the heroes were returned home.; The Destines travelled to New York tracking a robot called the Plastoid. Cuckoo believed that it was inhabited by a parasitic elemental, whom she intended to banish back to its dimension. Dominic and the rest of the Destines, however, believed the robot was in fact inhabited by Vincent's spirit, and aimed to stop Cuckoo from destroying it. During this conflict they also encountered Daredevil and Doctor Strange, who assisted the family. Daredevil destroyed the Plastoid, releasing Vincent's spirit from it.; ==Members==; ===Living===; In approximate order of age:; Elalyth, the ancient Djinn and mother of Clan Destine.; Adam of Destine, born Adam of Ravenscroft, was made immortal and invulnerable by his lover, Elalyth, a female djinn.; Kay Cera, a telepath who has lived as a fashion designer in recent years.

He can turn into a large, blue monster with superhuman strength and endurance. Changing back to his human form takes a lot of time though, but after the events in X-Men and the Clan Destine #2 he has learned to speed up the process. Walter doesn't want to be a superhero and just wants to write. The children Rory and Pandora have given him the codename "Wallop". Walter is generally strict and disapproves of Kay's hedonist lifestyle. He is the twins' guardian and tries to raise them with discipline.; Will "Take A" Chance, an actor who plays the role of Cap'n Oz in action movies. He has peak human strength and agility.; Dominic, a former theatrical performer. He lived on a remote island for eleven years, because his enhanced senses are overwhelmed in more urban areas.

He possessed the ability to adopt the aspect of any beast.; Florence, or Flo, pretended to be Rory and Pandora's grandmother.

He attacked Jennifer Kale, making lewd references to her undergarments "and what's beneath those and what's beneath that and what's beneath that." His onboard computer had alerted A.R.M.O.R. to the fact that he was seemingly malfunctioning, and triggered his self-destruct mechanism.

+After Domino accidentally watched Red Hulk transform and then survive his attack, General Thaddeus Ross and Doc Samson gave Red Hulk a list of extraordinary people to hire so that they may track down and kill Domino in 24 hours, so she can statistically inform less people. The list included Deadpool, Punisher, Thundra, Crimson Dynamo, and Elektra. After gathering up 6 hours after the team was formed, Elektra confirmed Domino's location, a small bar in Hell's Kitchen, however Domino had back up in the form of her "friends", the X-Force.

Red Hulk's vision came back and he began to fight Red She-Hulk out into the city streets and up a large building. Red She-Hulk knocked him off the building, where he regrouped with Elektra and the two tracked down Domino, where they decided it would be best if both parties withheld the information they knew about each other from the public. At Elektra's suggestion Red Hulk decided to make right by the members of Code Red, giving Deadpool large amounts of money(but not as much as initially promised), the Punisher was given an address to a secret S.H.I.E.L.D. weapons cache and advice to get out of the city, and the Crimson Dynamo was given slightly outdated Iron Man armor data to update and upgrade his own suit.

+History:
+Cisco Pike and his gang were some of the most infamous owlhoots of the old west. They came to the town of Wells Junction and took over the saloon. When the sheriff, Matt Morgan, tried to stop them, he was shot and his deputy killed. They then robbed the saloon, raped several women and left town that night. They planned to return to take over the town, however, and asked the Rawhide Kid to help them. The Kid refused and ended up becoming the sheriff's new deputy to ensure the safety of the town. This caused Pike to go out and round up a group of unusual criminals to add to his gang as insurance against the Rawhide Kid. These new members to the gang included: Catastrophe Jen, the Chinese brothers Yin and Yang, the French masked swordsman known only as Le' Sabre and the Native medicine man Thunderclaw.; Pike was unable to convince his second-in-command Red Duck not to go into town alone to have his revenge on the Kid, and once he left camp assumed he would be undoubtedly be killed and held a memorial service in his memory. When he later found out that Duck had in been locked up in jail by the Kid and not killed, he planned to break him out during their raid on the town.; The outlaws were very surprised to find the town completely deserted upon their arrival, as the Kid asked everyone to leave so they would not be in his way. The Kid went on to single-handedly dispatch Pike's entire gang and killing Pike himself with a Derringer. He made it appear, however, as if sheriff Morgan had taken down Pike in order to restore his son's pride in his old man.

+Created by: Ed Brubaker; Matt Fraction; Dan Brereton
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The Confederates of the Curious were a group of friends and fellow adventurers who coalesced around Orson Randall, a man who wielded the power of the Iron Fist, to function as a prototype for later superheroic teams such as the Invaders and Avengers. It has yet to be revealed how they formed as a group, but there is no mistaking the close bond the members have to one another. The first by Randall's side was Lucky Pierre, or L.P. as Orson referred to him often. L.P. was there when Orson faced the Lightning Lords of Nepal and their mistress, the Bride of Nine Spiders. After what could have been their last venture together, Orson and L.P. began to recruit others, misfits just as the two of them, and suddenly, their adventures turned into missions.; Each member of the team had their roles to play, and all were at the peak of their game. The Contessa played an integral part in a later task to retrieve Orson's Last Will and Testament from the Nine-Fold Daughters of Xao. Then as Randall was hunted by the Prince of Orphans, it was Shadu the Shady that was the first to be alerted by the Prince's presence, and it was Chores MacGillicuddy that put his life on the line to save Randall from that very same menace after escaping imprisonment by the Cowgirls of Hell. It was after that battle that Orson dissolved the group because he did not want his friends to pay for his crimes. However, the one member of the group that stood by Randall's side longer than anyone else was Wendell Rand. Stubborn and seemingly fearless, Wendell wanted to one day possess the mantle of the Iron Fist just like Orson, but as fate would have it, Wendell was shot and almost killed. Orson left Wendell in the hands of his enemy, the Prince of Orphans, in order for him to recover from his wounds. It wasn't the last time Orson and Wendell would see each other, but it marked the end of their long partnership.; The Confederates of the Curious grew older, but they lived extraordinarily long lives, due to the many times Randall used his healing powers to save them from their injuries. L.P., or Ernst Erskine, was visited by Randall's successor Danny Rand, Wendell’s son, and Erskine shared some of his exploits with Orson. He told Danny that Shadu had recently passed away and the Contessa had gone completely blind. Danny informed him of Orson's death and how he died as a hero. Erskine was sad to hear about it but happy Orson could finally stop running. As the two spoke throughout the day, Danny had to spring into action when a few Hydra goons interrupted his visit and attacked the villa Erskine lived in. Danny made quick work of the soldiers and had the pleasure of meeting Chores and the Contessa before heading back to K'un-Lun. Erskine showed Danny his private library spotlighting the life and times of Orson Randall, before going back to his old friends to read them another story of the incredible Orson Randall.

+Base of operations: Central City, California
+History:
+Harvey Jessup, a scientist from Central City, California, was colleagues with Reed Richards. While Richards went on to become the leader of the super-heroes known as the Fantastic Four, Jessup began using his expertise in nuclear energy to work for the Republic Oil and Gas Company (later known as Roxxon). When Jessup's manager pressured him to cut corners in the building of a nuclear reactor, Jessup refused and was then fired. With nuclear disarmament talks between the United States and Russia were not making any progress, Jessup became afraid that the world was going to be destroyed in a nuclear war. Harvey was later inspired when watching a new interview with the Fantastic Four, wherein Reed Richards expressed an interest in field-effect phenomena. This inspired Harvey to use F.E.P. to protect his people from nuclear attack. For the next six years, Harvey Jessup worked on a device he would later call the Salvation Machine. The intention was that the device would place a protective dome around Central City where time inside the dome would move slower than outside, eventually the dome would be dropped once it was safe to venture outside. When Jessup's invention was complete, he activated the device, surrounding Central City with a massive black dome that kept it separated from the outside world. Either by accident or design, the Salvation Device did the opposite it intended: It sped up time within the dome, so much so that for every second that went by outside an entire month passed within.; With fifty loyal technicians, Jessup rounded up the people of Central City and placed them in a state of suspended animation. Taking on the role of Great Coordinator, Jessup began advancing his society. Jessup maintained a centuries old life thanks to being placed in suspended animation, only being taken out when absolutely necessary. His followers formed a religion based on the Fantastic Four. They then began building up the city into a massive utopia. However, Harvey began to suspect something was wrong, but would not consider lowering the dome for fear that his theory of nuclear Armageddon proved to be true. Hundreds of years passed within the dome and it was eventually breached by the Avenger known as Iron Man, who remained within Central City, hunted by Jessup's minions for three weeks before escaping back outside. This prompted Jessup to create an army to defend his utopia, and engineered later generations into protectors of the realm: the Clobber Patrol, the Fire Patrol, the Wing Patrol, and Head Patrol. The patrols were based upon the Thing, Human Torch, Mister Fantastic, and the Invisible Woman respectively. The Clobber Patrol were massively strong, simple minded bruisers that were equipped with helmets that were designed to resemble the one briefly worn by the Fantastic Four's Thing early in his career.; Hundreds more years passed and the dome was breached by the She-Hulk, who had recently replaced the Thing as a member of the Fantastic Four at the time. Jessup had his minions subdue her, but his daughter Murna protested, realizing that there was something not right about her father's plan. In response, Jessup had Murna exiled and the She-Hulk placed in suspended animation.; After centuries had passed within the dome, the Fantastic Four and their ally Wyatt Wingfoot ended up breaching the dome to find their missing comrade, and discovered the civilization Jessup created within. After battling with the various patrols, the Fantastic Four were greeted by Princess Livia puppet ruler of the people. They were brought to the Grand Controller, who Richards had figured out was his old colleague. At first believing that they were impostors, Jessup decided to try and destroy the Fantastic Four instead of losing his position as a savior. The Invisible Woman was able to protect them with their invisibility powers and they were soon assisted in escaping by Murna. Murna in turn helped the Fantastic Four confront her father and free She-Hulk. During the ensuing battle against the Grand Coordinator, Murna was able to mind link Harvey with Reed Richards and force him to see the truth. Realizing the errors of his ways, Jessup agreed to let the people of Central City go free from suspended animation and go their own way with the Fantastic Four. Harvey died soon after, and the Fantastic Four freed Jessup's prisoners. Reed then used the Salvation Machine to send the future world of Central City deep into the future where it hopefully could thrive in peace.

+Equipment: Cursed masks
+Trivia: The name is a play on commedia dell'arte ("comedy of craft"), a classical Italian theatre form that employs masks and stock characters.; "Commedia dell'morte" actually makes no sense in Italian: a proper spelling would be "commedia della morte".
+History:
+Commedia Dell'Morte (translated Comedy of Death) are a group of six assassins from Europe who dress as "stock characters" from classical opera.; ===Origin===; A long time ago, the assassins were a commedia dell'arte troupe of actors who traveled around Europe performing for wealthy hosts. Since that job didn't pay much, they supplemented their income by stealing from their patrons and moving on before they could be implicated in the crime. Unfortunately for them, their last attempted theft took place in Castle Mordo in Transylvania where they were caught red-handed by its owner, Baron Mordo. Being a powerful sorcerer, Baron Mordo chose to punish the troupe by inflicting a terrible curse upon them, one that trapped their souls in their masks for eternity. In this state, they could only become physical by taking over the bodies of anyone who put on their masks. Additionally, the curse required the troupe to kill at least one person per day or else their souls would be consigned to Limbo. In order to avoid this fate, the six actors became assassins so that they could fill that daily quota.; ===Crime-Buster===; At some point, the criminal-for-hire known as Crime-Buster tried to blackmail his employer, Joe Duffy, the CEO of Penance Corps. Knowing of the cursed masks, Duffy plotted to get one of them into the hands Crime-Buster's girlfriend, Jennie Royce, so that Crime-Buster would be murdered in a way that couldn't be traced back to him. Although the details of this plot have never been revealed, it is known that Crime-Buster came into conflict with the Commedia Dell'Morte while competing for a contract to kill a Mafia informant in Venice, Italy. During a confrontation, Crime-Buster kidnapped Columbina and later removed the mask which he brought home with him as a memento. When Jennie put the mask on, Columbina took over her body and, seeing her kidnapper in front of her, immediately shot him dead with his own gun. Duffy had the mask removed and disposed of it by having someone posing as Jennie Royce sell it to the criminal known as Pokerface. Since her fingerprints were on the gun that killed him, Jennie Royce was arrested and convicted of Crime-Buster's murder. Believing that Royce had killed Mason because he had physically abused her, the police ignored her statement that some of his mementoes were missing from his apartment, including the commedia dell'arte mask.; Later, the other five members of the Commedia Dell'Morte arrived in New York City looking for the kidnapped Columbina. The assassins soon encountered Iron Fist and the new Power Man who were investigating Crime-Buster's murder in an attempt to overturn Royce's conviction. Soon after the group evaded the heroes, Alvarez learned that a commedia dell'arte mask said to have mystic properties was going to be sold at a black market auction that was to be held at Twilight Idol. Danny Rand and Vic Alvarez went to the Twilight Idol undersea casino, accompanied by their respective dates, Joy Meachum and Tiowa Bryant. While there, Iron Fist was told that it had been "Jennie Royce" who had sold the mask to Pokerface and Joy Meachum was manipulated into touching the mask. Now in control of Meachum's body, Columbina encountered Power Man and revealed to him the origin of the Commedia Dell'Morte. Columbina also confessed that, the last time she had looked through another's eyes, she had seen the man who had stolen her from Venice in front of her and she had shot him. When the undersea casino was partially flooded, the water separated Columbina from Power Man and she made her escape. Later, Power Man was held captive by Duffy and his goons and forced to call Iron Fist to lure him into an ambush at Ryker's Island but managed to secretly hint to Iron Fist that something was wrong, Having figured out that Duffy was responsible for Crime-Buster's murder, Iron Fist called Joy's cell phone and told the Commedia Dell'Morte where the man who had "despoiled" Columbina could be found. The assassins came to get their revenge and their arrival enabled Power Man to free himself and avoid being executed. Iron Fist then confronted Columbina and, by speaking to Joy, was able to get her to resist her possession long enough for him to remove the mask from her face, freeing her. Pagliacci then took possession of Columbina's mask.

+Control were allegedly a group of men who sought to direct the future of the world by manipulating America's superhumans, originally formed from plans for an advisory council think tank purposed by Reed Richards after Gormuu attacked New York City before Richards became a member of the Fantastic Four. The members of Control were instead military high-ups and industrialists who were believed to have diverged from Richards' original plans and instead singled out gifted scientists who they monitored and subtly manipulated as well as alien technology and superhumans whose strings they pulled and often inadvertently or directly created by setting up the circumstances by which they able to gain their powers.; Control were believed to be responsible for the lack of media coverage that alien visitations to Earth received as well as giant monster attacks. Control were also stated to have insured that the Fantastic Four made their space flight in an unshielded craft to use them as guinea pigs and that Matthew Murdock received powers from his exposure to radioactive waste, perhaps even setting up the accident that caused his exposure in the first place and also funded the Sentinel program for Bolivar Trask and allowed radiology experiments to be conducted such as the one which irradiated a spider that bit Spider-Man among suspected others. Control also claimed to have allowed the Hulk to continue existing as the threat he represented allowed them a larger budget and more weaponry developed.; General Harrison eventually left Control when it grew too large, with the original six members no longer involved, alive or in charge and the money it was generating beginning to be used to support supervillains and decided to give confidential information to two seperate reporters, first Cliff Garner and then later Mark Ewing, which placed both journalists life in danger and had them targeted alongside him by S.H.I.E.L.D. who claimed that Harrison was in fact mentally ill and had killed Garner when he didn't believe his 'delusions'.

+The Civil Warriors were a group composed mostly of inhabitants from a world where Iron Man had become president of the United States after the Civil War. They were the combined remnants of that world's Avengers and Thunderbolts, joined by the Sentry of Earth-1611.; The Avengers were abducted by the Maestro, who brought them to Battleworld on Earth-15513 to have them fight the other unwilling contestants of his Contest of Champions. In order to incite conflict, Maestro altered their memories so they believed they hadn't left their home reality, and the contestants were unregistered heroes they were pursuing. With the help of Reed Richards, the Thunderbolts traced the teleport trail back to Battleworld with the intention of retrieving the missing Avengers.; An all-out battle broke out between the three groups of heroes, and it was interrupted when President Stark, the Iron Patriot, killed Thunderbolt leader Steve Rogers and revealed he was in possession of the Reality Stone, which he had used to subtly reshape reality numerous times back in his home dimension. Iron Patriot tried to use the stone to subjugate the fighters, but he couldn't due to the stone's major limitation, it only works fully on its home reality. The Maestro arrived to the scene, killed Stark, and ordered the contestants to fight him. Maestro's victory was cut short with the help of two contestants he believed dead, Stick from Earth-616 and the aforementioned Sentry.; While the rest of the contestants were fighting Maestro, Outlaw snatched the ISO-Sphere from him and wished the contest to be over. The ISO-Sphere was destroyed, the contestants were teleported to whichever place they wanted to be, and Maestro was sent to a cell in the Collector's museum.; The contestants native from Earth-616 were sent back to their reality, while the remaining members of the Avengers, the Thunderbolts and Sentry decided to stay behind in Battleworld to protect its deposit of Iso-8 from any interdimensional invaders who attempted to get their hands on it.

+Notes: As stated in the comic, the false identity of “Curtis M. Edwards” was inspired by the work and life of American photographer and ethnologist Edward S. Curtis.
+History:
+Clown demons, also known as Koyemsi and Mudheads, are extradimensional beings associated with the Manidoog, the Native American gods.; In the early 20th century, one Clown demon was granted shape-changing abilities by Iktomi (the god of trickery) and used those powers to escape to the Earth realm and create the human identity of Curtis M. Edwards, becoming a prominent photographer and ethnologist. In this human identity, the Clown demon traveled to various Indian reservations and took photographs that romanticized the slaughter of the Indigenous population to the overall detriment of Indigenous culture. On December 21, 1925, the day of the winter solstice, the Ghost Dancer (Nathaniel Great Owl) followed the trail of this Clown demon to New York City. There, the Ghost Dancer exorcized the Clown demon and returned it to the Secret Worlds for atonement.; In recent times, a legion of Clown demons was corrupted by a skin-walker demon calling itself the “Manitou” (“Spirit”). These Clown demons served as the Manitou’s scouts and henchmen as it attempted to usurp the power of the Ghost Dancer, but were defeated by James Owl, the grandson of Nathaniel Great Owl and successor to the Ghost Dancer mantle.

+History:
+====Conquest of the New world====; The Conquistadors first ventured to Costa Salvador in the New World from the Caribbean in the early 16th century, Captain Vidal Vasquez finally succeeded in the conquest of the area in the name of the Spanish Crown in 1528 and changed the name of Bazuatán to "San Jorge" in the process.; In 1519, Hernán Cortés a Spanish conquistador. travelled to the new world, later known as Mexico, was being explored by Cortez. On his travel across the Atlantic Ocean, he had been accompanied by immortal Neanderthal Cole, Clan Destine member Cuckoo (then in the body of a Spanish nobleman) and her sister Gracie Gamble (disguised as a valet boy) (the sister accompanying both Cortez and Pizarro).; Craving for their gold, Cortez had the Aztec massacred by his army, superior in technology. Cole witnessed him destroy the Mayan civilization as well.; In an attempt to stop Cortez, Gracie tried to enhanced her powers, resulting in her accidental bonding to the demon Synraith.; In 1513 AD, Juan Ponce de León led on behalf of the Spanish Empire led the first known European expedition to La Florida. He landed with his Conquistadors somewhere along east coast, then charted the Atlantic coast down to the Florida Keys and north along the Gulf coast. He travelled there to find the legendary Fountain of Youth.; By 1521, Cortés had conquered Mexico in the name of Spain, overthrowing Aztec ruler Montezuma. Later that year Spanish conquistador Ramiro Montoya discovered the area of Medisuela on an expedition into the South American interior. Medisuela City was founded in 1534 and became the center of a Spanish colonial province.; In 1522 AD, on the Banks of the Caloosahatchee River in Florida, Count Duende attacked his cousin Juan Ponce de León y Figueroa, slaughtering his men and asking him for the Fountain of Eternal Youth. As de León told mocked him, stating there was no such Fountain there, Duende stabbed him and set the place for people to thinks natives had caused the slaughter.; In 1533 AD, Conquistador Francisco Pizarro defeated the Incan Empire and established Delvadia as a Spanish colony.; The Spanish empire continued to conquer the new world. A group of Conquistadors found the Fountain of Eternal Youth in the Florida swamps. The initial group that drank the water were transformed into the ogre-like immortal beings called the Fathers. The remaining members of the party bathed in the water instead, and gained immortality in return for their emotions, but were not physically changed like the Fathers. They founded the village of La Hacienda at the site of the Fountain, and when they discovered they could not leave their village without losing their immortality, they stayed in La Hacienda and cut themselves off from the rest of the world.; ===Modern Age===; In the Modern Age, the Man-Thing inadvertently caused chaos at la Hacienda when it was provoked by Conquistadors trying to capture it. The encounter led to the rapid aging and death of one Conquistador due to the depletion of life-preserving energies within him. Subsequently, a villager named Lorena used the Fountain's waters to momentarily restore the Man-Thing's human hand, but disruptions by outsiders like F. A. Schist and Professor Slaughter halted the process. Schist's misguided attempt to control the waters transformed him into an "ogre," causing chaos until he perished in flames during a struggle with the Man-Thing. The incident prompted the Fathers of la Hacienda to cease transforming outsiders, and the Man-Thing, regaining strength, retreated into the swamp.; Later Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk, was reverted to her human form by the Fountain's waters after an encounter with an alligator in the Citrusville swamp. Accepting her transformation, she integrated into la Hacienda but faced challenges, including the death of a villager due to an alligator attack. Leading the villagers in constructing a protective barrier against gators led to condemnation by the Fathers initially. However, Jen's impassioned speech advocating for a more enriched life persuaded the villagers and the Fathers to shatter the Fountain. The people of la Hacienda chose a more fulfilling existence over eternal youth.; Later, a Conquistador joined Florida's superhero team, The Command, and discovered his immunity to a zombie virus during an attack by zombies from Earth-2149. Despite his immunity, he perished when the zombies tore him apart.

The campaign stretched longer into winter than ever before. In the end, the Valusian Black Legion was cut at half its strength, but at the cost of the virtual destruction of the Commorian army. The survivors were sent back to their homes to starve during the winter.; This was chronicled as occurring in the tenth year of Kull's rule, though the lack of further evidence, supportive or contrary, makes it difficult to confirm.

+First appearance: Wonder Man Vol 2 11
+Created by: Gerard Jones; Mike Parobeck
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Friends and neighbors of Simon Williams who gained powers during an accidental discharge of his powers
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+===Origin===; While pursuing a career in acting, the hero known as Wonder Man lived in a Los Angeles apartment building managed by former actress Gloria Angel. His neighbours included aspiring director Argus LoVecchio, fitness-focused performer LaHoya Scripps, and professional dancer Aundray Phelps. Wonder Man briefly dated thrill-seeking actress Ginger Beach, whose teenage brother Esteban nicknamed "Spider," was assigned to Wonder Man as a self-styled sidekick by their mutual agent, Neal Saroyan.. Though initially reluctant, Wonder Man soon formed closer ties with screenwriter Alex Flores and developed a bond with her daughter Jamie.; All eight were together when Wonder Man was savagely attacked by Angkor, a Cambodian refugee who had been altered by Simon's unstable ionic energy. After rushing him home, the group witnessed a violent burst of ionic discharge caused by Simon's loss of control. Although no immediate effects were apparent, each of the others was subtly changed by the exposure. Over time, the eight friends began developing unusual abilities. Jamie could project a dream-state version of herself. Spider generated electromagnetic duplicates. Ginger unleashed energy bursts. Argus gained extrasensory vision. LaHoya developed immense strength. Aundray acquired magnetic control. Alex discovered she could create tangible illusions. Gloria gained the ability to travel through time.; ===Forming the Team===; As Wonder Man's powers became increasingly unstable, the group considered stepping in as Los Angeles' new protectors and began calling themselves the Crazy Eight. Alex was initially hesitant, but Spider, now calling himself Stat, persuaded her to act as their leader. She adopted the name Auteur, Jamie became Dreamer, and Ginger chose Snap, a pun on her name and powers. Gloria selected Glamour Girl, and Argus, LaHoya, and Aundray took the names Visionary, Buff, and Attractive Lad, respectively.; Their first major mission took place while Wonder Man was out of town. They confronted Armed Response, a corrupt team of armored enforcers secretly working for underworld figure Lotus Newmark. The Crazy Eight fought effectively, exposing the group's crimes and releasing the evidence to the media. In retaliation, Lotus sent assassins Splice and Rampage to eliminate them. The Eight won the battle, but Auteur was critically wounded in the process. Dreamer reached out to Wonder Man, who returned to Los Angeles in response.; ===End of the Crazy Eights===; Alex's soul was drawn into a metaphysical conflict involving Mephisto and Blackheart, with Wonder Man's resurrected brother, the Grim Reaper, acting on Blackheart's behalf. Wonder Man defeated the opposing forces and reabsorbed the ionic energy from his allies in an attempt to restore their normal lives. However, Dreamer and Stat secretly resisted the process and retained a portion of their powers. Following Wonder Man's apparent death during a conflict with the alien race known as the Scatter, the group slowly drifted apart. Alex married filmmaker Felix Simon. Jamie and Spider left superheroics behind. Ginger and LaHoya were cast in a television series filmed in New Zealand, and Gloria became Spider’s legal guardian. Argus began producing a documentary on superhumans, and Aundray opened a dance studio.

+Equipment: The Council has access to the combined total resources of all the dozens of Earthly pantheons, including everything found in their native dimensions, which they can use at their disposal if needed.
+Trivia: The council is usually composed of the patriarchal Sky-Fathers. The Earth-Mothers have their own council that meet independently. This was important in regards to the Fourth Host, as it was ultimately the goddesses who saved the Earth from the Celestials.
+History:
+The Gods of Earth are an extra-dimensional race of beings of which all of whom consider the Mother Goddess Gaea as their common ancestor. Over several years after the Hyborian Age, which occurred roughly after the sinking of the continent of Atlantis and before the advent of written records, the Gods of Earth divided into certain groups or tribes called pantheons, mostly designated to areas on Earth with mortals who were separated culturally, geographically or racially. Each pantheon allowed themselves to be worshipped as gods either willingly or unwillingly by these gatherings of mortals. At times, certain pantheons even came to clash with each other over different reasons, usually over worship rights. Only a few of these confrontations are known. It is known that the Olympians and the Asgardians formed an alliance with each other after friction between their perspective pantheons and that the Native American Gods nearly entered into bloodshed with the Asgardians when Vikings started invading North America. More over, the Celtic Gods now have a truce with the Asgardians after years of enmity, but not yet with the Olympians who they have held in low disregard since the Romans invaded Briton. Similarly, the Mesopotamian Gods finally have a truce with the Olympians after millennia of mistrust, but not with the Devas of the Hindu gods.; ===Pre-Cataclysmic Age===; Valka was one of the first new gods (following the Elder Gods) worshiped on Earth. He achieve prominence about 30,000 B.C which lasted at least 12,000 years, and was part of the Council of Godheads.; ===Hyborian Age===; Some Hyborian Age Deities were members of the Council, such as Crom, Dagon, or Mitra.; ===Third Host of the Celestials===; Following the war between the Asgardians and the Olympians, Odin learned of the coming of the Third Host of the Celestials, alien beings of inconceivable cosmic power who had influenced the evolution of the Earth’s human race and intended to judge humanity’s worthiness to survive when the Fourth Host came. Odin had contacted Zeus, ruler of the Olympian gods, and they then met with the ruling gods of Earth’s other pantheons to set a course of action. This would be the first such gathering of the Council. Odin, Zeus, and the Hindu god Vishnu then confronted the Third Host, which threatened to seal off the inter-dimensional passages between the gods realms and Earth unless the gods did not interfere with the Celestials’ activities for a millennium. Acting on behalf of Earth’s gods, Odin, Zeus, and Vishnu agreed with their terms, but Odin already began making plans for the Fourth Host, which would arrive about a millennium later. He constructed a suit of armor with nearly invincible powers called the Destroyer and asked his fellow Sky-Lords to infuse it with a bit of their power. He also transformed the Rhinegold Ring-Halves into the Oversword of Asgard. Frigga and the other leading goddesses of Earth’s pantheons took charge in finding Earth’s human beings who were as close to genetic perfection as possible over these centuries.; ===Modern Age===; ====Fourth Host of the Celestials====; After the coming of the Fourth Host of the Celestials, Odin withdrew all the life essences of the Asgardians except Thor into himself. Then Odin’s spirit entered the Destroyer, animating it, and Odin thus did battle with the Fourth Host. The Celestials annihilated the Destroyer, but judged in humanity’s favor when the Earth goddess Gaea presented them with twelve genetically advanced human beings, the “Young Gods.” The chieftains of the other pantheons of Earth granted the power to restore Odin, who then revived the Asgardians.; ====The God-Eater====; In later years, the Council has been called together by Zeus, Odin or others to face potential threats. After Hades, the Olympian god of the dead, entered into a pact with other gods of the dead to extend their respective reigns, they accidentally succeeded in restoring the primeval entity known as Demogorge the God-Eater to life, which then proceeded in consuming the respective gods which it had confused as demonic beings. Odin then called upon the gods of earth to each send a champion to confront Demogorge who then turned on them as well. Consumed himself, the thunder-god succeeded in reversing the creature's palate and was able to save himself and the other consumed gods.; ====Infinity Gauntlet====; Sometime later, Odin and Zeus again gathered the respective sovereigns of the pantheons of earth to discuss the threat that Thanos posed with the Infinity Gauntlet, a device with extra-ordinary cosmic power to restructure reality. Previously, the group had met physically in a neutral realm adjacent to their separate worlds, but this time, they met in Asgard and were stranded here as Thanos set the realms of the gods off the Celestial Axis. Nevertheless, Thanos was defeated by recurring waves of forces ranging from the costumed champions of Earth, the gods of Earth, and to the cosmic forces of the universe itself.; Over the years, the chief members of the Council has been unofficially preclusive to the rulers, sovereigns and chiefs of the pantheons of Earth, but this has been by no means absolute. Both Brahma and Shiva have attended gatherings with Vishnu while others such as Shou-Hsing of the Chinese Gods and Horus of the Egyptian Gods have stepped in where Takamimusubi and Osiris were unable to attend. As a matter of fact, Osiris has taken over the sovereign duties of Ammon-Ra in his absence now that he has taken the role as ruler of the Egyptian gods. Tezcatlipoca, Ruler of the Aztec Gods, has even accompanied Itzamna in meetings, and in one known alternate reality was replaced by Quetzalcoatl himself. After the death of Odin, Thor himself ascended to his father's role in the Council after taking his role as Ruler of the Asgardian Gods although now with the restoration of the Asgardians, Odin is now once more Ruler of Asgard and again part of the Council.; ====Secret Invasion====; In their most recent gathering, the Council of Godheads, united by the Dreaming Celestial in San Francisco, was called forth by Athena, the Olympian Goddess of Wisdom, to be told of the impending Skrull threat posed by their imminent invasion. Fearing that the shifting of the cosmic axis would replace them with a new pantheon of alien deities and prompt the Demogorge to lay waste to them all, the Earth gods chose to counter this new threat by following Athena's proposed strategy of journeying to the realm of the Skrull Pantheon and eliminating them there, while the remaining heroes of the planet, combined with any of their alien or extradimensional allies, joined forces in hopes of repelling the threat directly through force.; The "God Squad" was chosen, comprising of Hercules, Snowbird, Ajak, Atum, and Amatsu-Mikaboshi, as well as boy genius Amadeus Cho, mortal companion of Hercules. The Council urged the god-heroes to reach Nightmare to attain a map of the route to the Skrull deity world, and though their own souls were nearly lost, Mikaboshi's magical trickery succeeded in fooling Nightmare long enough to find the map with no cost for the God Squad other than their own temporary suffering and more long-lasting mental scars from the traumatic experiences within themselves. Though both the Demogorge and Ajak fell before the might of the Skrull gods before their final confrontation, Hercules, Amadeus and Snowbird survived to return to Earth, while Mikaboshi, thought to be slain by the surviving God Squad, became free of the Kami and seized control over the enslaved Skrull deities, upsetting the invasion, as well as damaging war morale for the Skrulls, who no longer possessed their core inspiration for their religious war, all according to Athena's plan.; ====Chaos War====; Mikaboshi, calling himself the Chaos King, then commanded the Skrull deities in an attack on war a few months later, duping Hercules into revealing the secret location of the Council Elite where they held their meetings and then launching an attack there. Leading a swath of destruction to destroy the gods of Earth and absorb their life energies, Mikaboshi was finally destroyed by Thor and with his death, those gods slain by him were mystically restored to life afterward.; ====Fear Itself====; Since Mikaboshi's defeat, the Council has once again reconvened to discuss the threat of the Serpent, a self-proclaimed god of fear and his plan to cause chaos on Earth. Advised by Odin, the Council was successful in defeating the Serpent in laying claim on Earth.

All of them had picked their own names to avoid confusion, so Kang picked "Fred."; One of the main purposes of the Council of Cross-Time Kangs was to retrieve "the most powerful known weapon in all the Omniverse," which was contained inside a Time Bubble and created by a renegade Celestial. The Council had failed to penetrate the Time Bubble many times. Eventually they found out that an Avengers team, or so they thought, was going to penetrate the bubble. The "Nebula" Kang betrayed the Council and manipulated the current Avengers team to enter the bubble, but they were ultimately unsuccessful. Later, the Fantastic Four entered the bubble and the Council of Cross-Time Kangs followed, but were defeated and the Time Bubble was destroyed.; The entire organization was wiped out from existence by the temporal monster Alioth, who was under the control of the true Kang.

Survivors of "local" council wars were rare and those who did survive got recruited into the Council of Cross-Time Kangs, which was a bigger organization.
+History:
+The Council of Kangs was a trio of divergent Kangs led by the "Prime" Kang (identified by his cape), who thought that his other divergent selves were incredibly incompetent. After finding Limbo seemingly vacant, he took it over and began killing the other Kangs, most of whom die in their own failing schemes anyway. Two of the other Kangs were above the rest, so he recruited them to join his cause, forming a council. When the other Kangs had been dealt with, the Prime Kang then betrayed and killed the two Kang council members. As each Kang had their own temporal empires, he had planned to replace them with robots so the Prime Kang would rule them all. However, in the end, it was revealed that Kang was manipulated by Immortus, the actual ruler of Limbo and Kang's future self, into eliminating all divergent Kangs in the Multiverse. Immortus had contained the memories of all the slain Kangs inside an orb, which were transferred to the Prime Kang when he grabbed it.; The Council of Kangs was eventually recreated as part of the Kang Collective. During the eighty-ninth gathering of the Kangs at the Transtemporal Hub-World, they exiled Kangaroo the Conqueror for finding him an affront to all Kang kind.

+Notes: The relation between the Witches and cosmic beings like Infinity and Eternity is not clear. One of their names is "Sisters of Eternity" and they have called the cosmic being Death "sister," but they also call her "old friend" immediately after, suggesting the word "sister" is referring to familiarity.
+Trivia: The Coven is said to be older than any gods.
+History:
+Already expecting Ebony Maw would try to use Thane to take the Black Quadrant for his own, Corvus Glaive prepared for their arrival by enlisting the Coven's help against them. When they finally struck, the Coven depowered Thane while Corvus captured Maw. Both were imprisoned by Corvus soon afterwards, but each one escaped at different points in time.; Months later, Thane took control of the Phoenix Force on behalf of Lady Death, prompting Starfox, Nebula, and the Champion of the Universe to seek Thanos in an effort to stop him. Thanos led them into meeting the Coven so he could claim the God Quarry's power to fight Thane. Starfox tried to use his powers to manipulate the witches into helping them, but it didn't work and the witches punished him for his insolence. The witches then challenged Thanos into entering the God Quarry to face a trial. If he succeeded in passing it, he would be granted access to the power held by the Quarry; otherwise, he would join the other deities frozen for eternity in its walls.; After Thanos overcame the God Quarry, the Coven teleported him to Thane's presence and the two fought; both eventually falling in the God Quarry. Sensing the Phoenix Force within Thane, the Coven used their power to release it back into the cosmos, thus depowering Thane once again. As soon as Thanos dropped Thane into the God Quarry to live forever trapped within its walls, Lady Death herself appeared in the God Quarry to talk with Thanos, revealing that was all a part of her plan to make him worthy of her love again. However, Thanos did not want anything to do with Death anymore, so the three witches banished her from their realm.; Once Thanos left, the Coven bore witness as Nebula entered the God Quarry to claim its power. They were surprised to see her returned and imbued with the Quarry's power, but couldn't teleport her to kill Thanos as she asked, because Thanos had already been killed by Gamora. The witches informed Nebula that Gamora, who was calling herself Requiem at the time, had created a powerful weapon to do so, and offered to point her towards a weapon of her own if she wished. She accepted and went on a quest to get said weapon: the Naglfar Beacon.; When newcomers Loki and Flowa arrived at the God Quarry seeking to find out what is beneath it, the Witches self-immolated.; The three witches would return later on under unknown circumstances and again operate in God Quarry. Lord Strange would encounter them when he arrived to learn more about the being named Atho-Tet, and they allowed him to venture deeper into the Quarry.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; The Witches were immensely powerful beings. They could banish powerful cosmic beings like the Phoenix Force and Death from the God Quarry, separating the former from its host Thane in the process.; Time Acceleration: They also possessed apparent chronokinetic power, as they rapidly aged Starfox when he tried to manipulate them.

Though Shang-Chi defeated the council members dispatched to kill him and they committed suicide, when he infiltrated the NY City base the council still had 7 members.
+History:
+The Council of Seven are the Si-Fan's elite warriors, who are also in charge of overseeing the Si-Fan's international operations. On Shang-Chi's birthday, Fu Manchu sent them to assassinate his son. The first two dispatched were defeated by Shang-Chi and rather than face Fu Manchu, they committed suicide by poison capsule. The next two assassins dispatched also failed, and both likewise committed suicide.; Afterwards Shang-Chi infiltrated their NY base, encountered two Council members whom he knocked out. Wearing their robe, he entered the meeting room where he confronted his father and defeated the other 5 Council members. A little over half a year later during a briefing given by Fu Manchu regarding the Si-Fan civil war, Shang-Chi appeared and once again defeated the council.

+Notes: The team is only referred to as the "Cosmic Avengers" in an editorial sense. They actually never give themselves an official name in-universe.
+History:
+The Cosmic Avengers were formed by Loki to stop Gamora from destroying the universe. He specifically picked members he deemed uniquely suited to wield a Infinity Stone. After first recruiting Emma Frost, Loki then recruited Ms. Marvel and Kang the Conqueror and later Ant-Man and the Hulk. Loki tried to recruit Adam Warlock, but he insisted that they stay in the Soul Stone and fight Devondra who was responsible for corrupting Soul World. So, Emma used telepathy to call for various heroes to help Adam.; The Cosmic Avengers later found duplicates of the Infinity Stones unintentionally created by Gamora when she created Warp World in the possession of a young version of Gamora. Using their set of Infinity Stones, the Cosmic Avengers left Soul World and confronted Gamora at the Quarry of Creation. They managed to defeat Gamora by taking the Infinity Stones from her, but Loki used his sorcery to take Gamora's set of Infinity Stones and used them to wipe out the Avengers' Infinity Stones, banish Gamora to Soul World, and enter the realm below the Quarry of Creation to learn why was he always destined to lose.; After finding the answer he sought, Loki gave the Infinity Stones back to the Cosmic Avengers. The Avengers then reentered Soul World and rejoined with Adam Warlock. After Hulk used the Space Stone to defeat Devondra, the Cosmic Avengers used the Infinity Stones to restore the universe as well as ensure Warp World remained in existence. They then escaped Soul World with Gamora, Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, and alternate reality versions of Moondragon and Captain Marvel while Drax the Destroyer stayed behind to keep the portal opened. After landing in Egypt, Adam Warlock decided to send Gamora someplace where she could redeem herself and then gave the Infinity Stones sentience so they could determine their own fates so no one else could fight over their power.

They were present when Namor asked to use the Armed Forces to stop the war by acting as privateers on the surface. Despite the proposal being against the rules of Atlantis, Tha-Korr gave Namor the approval of the Court and endowed him with the rank of commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy.; After being captured by Atlanteans while leading an expedition to kill or capture Namor, Luther Robinson was to stand trial before the Emperor's Council, but managed to escape.; ===Modern Age===; Krang once conspired with Byrrah and Attuma to depose Namor and share the rule, possibly as a Council of Three, but the coup failed.; ====Vashti, two unnamed lord====; After Namor deposed the tyrant usurper Krang, he took Vashti as part of his Royal Council, along two other unidentified Lords.<!--; Monthly meeting at capitol building, where Byrrah took the opening and started a rebellion.; The Council...; ====Vashti, three unnamed lord====; ... -->; ====Vashti, Shakkoth, Thakos====; Namor was counseled by his three closest advisers, Shakkoth the high priest at the Temple of Neptune, Thakos as representative of the Council of Warlords, and Lord Vashti, the leader of the Council of Elders.; After the Councils voted to ask Namor to abdicate, the triumvirate composed of Shakkoth, Thakos, and Lord Vashti ruled over Atlantis.<!-- mentions it's the closest advisors themselves who ask him to abdicate and thtat they thern formed a Council of Three, while mentions the Council of Three as forcing the abdication.; ... -->; When an Atlantean patrol found Warlord Seth after years being lost, he was brought back to the Palace, and Vashti and the Council were informed.; ====Andromeda, Namorita, Seth====; Following the ousting of Attuma after his second rule over Atlantis, Namor established a Council of Three composed of Attuma's daughter Andromeda and his own cousins Namorita and Seth, to officially rule in his absence.; ====Crostahl, Kallthro, unnamed====; The Council was later composed of Crostahl, Kallthro, and a third unnamed member.

+History:
+The Costa Family were headed by Frank Costa and his brother, Bruno. At some point, they got involved in a drug dealing operation arranged by San Lorenzo diplomat Hector Montoya. The deal eventually led to the execution of Forrest Hunt and the resultant Castle family massacre (Bruno, along with hitmen Byron Hannigan, Leon Kolsky, Luis Allegre, Matt Skinner, and Big Bumpy Gazzera were responsible). The family apparently had connections with the NYPD, since the investigation concerning the Castle massacre, led by detectives John Laviano and Stan Witts, was quickly sabotaged by the top brass of the department. Billy Russo also worked as a hitman for the Costas, on behalf of whom he killed Maurice Howles (another hitman) and Mike McTeer (a Daily Bugle reporter who was helping Castle in his vengeance against the Costas). After Castle, by then known as the Punisher, disfigured him, Russo turned into his nemesis: Jigsaw.; Later, the entire family was wiped out when the Punisher attacked their headquarters in Punta Verde, Florida. Frank and Bruno Costa were both killed by Audrey, a Maggia hitwoman disguised as a hooker, for their failure towards the organization. It was later revealed Frank Costa was actually a facade for the demon Olivier, who arranged Frank Castle's family to be killed as a means to turn him into the Punisher, whom Olivier employed as a "soul collector" until his defeat at the hands of the vigilante and the angel Gadriel.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: London
+Notes: The Crusaders is the name used by two teams of superheroes, one group appearing in DC Comics and the other in Marvel Comics, at around the same time as part of an informal crossover. The DC Comics team was created by Bob Rozakis and Dick Ayers in the pages of Freedom Fighters #7 (March 1977), and was composed of homages to the members of the Invaders. The Marvel Comics version of the Crusaders first appeared in Invaders Vol 1 14, written by Roy Thomas and drawn by Frank Robbins, and likewise had members based on the Freedom Fighters:; The Spirit of '76 — Uncle Sam; Captain Wings — Black Condor; Dyna-Mite — Doll-Man; Ghost Girl — Phantom Lady; Thunderfist — The Human Bomb; Tommy Lightning — The Ray
+History:
+The Crusaders first appeared in wartime London and routed the crew of a crashed German bomber, convincing the British that they finally have a superteam to rival the Invaders. An eccentric cab driver named Alfie seems to be their boss. It is later revealed that he gave most of them the devices that grant them their powers and can turn their powers off with a switch on his belt.; But Dyna-Mite, who has no memory of where he came from, becomes suspicious. He spies on Alfie and discovers that he is a tool of the Nazis and is using them in a plot to assassinate the king. Alfie, meanwhile, has convinced the Crusaders that the Invaders (Captain America, Bucky, Human Torch, Toro, Namor) have traitorous inclinations.; So when Dyna-Mite finally warns the Invaders, and they rush to the scene to stop the king's murder, the Crusaders naturally assume they are under attack and a slugfest ensues. Tommy shocks Cap, Cap slugs the Spirit of 76, Thunderfist punches Namor, etc.; Eventually, the truth (and a bomb in the champagne bottle) is revealed. Alfie flees but is killed when the Torch's fireball causes his taxi to go off a bridge. Most of the Crusaders give up their heroic careers, now that their powers are gone. Two of the Crusaders however remained active: Spirit of 76 took over as the new Captain America when Steve Rogers got frozen. But after the war, Nasland was killed in a fight with some robots of the evil android called Adam 1.; Dyna-Mite turned out to be a friend of Brian Falsworth, the Mighty Destroyer, and later Union Jack. Aubrey was restored to his normal size and succeeded Falsworth as the Mighty Destroyer.; ==Members==; The Spirit of '76: The team's field leader, William Nasland was an American dressed like a revolutionary war figure and equipped himself with a bullet-proof cloak.; Dyna-Mite: Roger Aubrey, a six-inch tall man with the strength of a normal sized person.; Captain Wings: Roger Dicken was an Upper-class gent who couldn't get into the RAF because of a heart murmur. He was able to fly and had a pair of golden wings on his back.; Ghost Girl: Wendy Hunt, a Scottish girl who had a mechanism in her gloves that could cast her image several feet away. This could create illusory doubles of herself that were very lifelike in appearance.; Tommy Lightning: Thomas Lovejoy, a Cockney who had the ability to absorb electricity and cast powerful lightning bolts.; Thunderfist: Patrick Mason was very strong and had the ability to throw explosive punches.

+Transportation: At least two members of the cult had Shadow Cloaks which allowed them to teleport.
+Notes: According to Ian McNee, an "ancient and fairly credible source" once told him that Devil Slayer's old cult had been formed to hunt down and kill followers of Agamotto. He referred to it as the Cult of the Harvester of Eyes. It's unclear if his use of the singular "Harvester" is significant.
+History:
+Centuries ago, the Ancient One used the Eye of Agamotto to banish a race of demons from Earth to an extradimensional realm.; According to some sources, the Cult of the Harvester of Eyes was formed to hunt down and kill followers of Agamotto.; Whether or not this origin is true, in recent years the members of the Cult of the Harvesters of Eyes were dedicated to the rebirth of that ancient demon race on Earth. They were led by Vera Gemini, the daughter of a human and a demon. Eric Simon Payne, aka Devil-Slayer, was once a member of the Cult of the Harvesters of Eyes but quit when he learned the truth about them. He would later return to battle the organization.; The Agent of Fortune stole the Eye of Agamotto from Doctor Strange as a part of this plot. The Eye was used to form a gateway that enabled the Demons to invade Earth.; The human members of the Cult lusted for power, but they were unwitting pawns of their leader Vera Gemini. They were offered as human sacrifice to the Demons. When they managed to summon many demons to Earth, they were brutally slain by those Demons.; The Defenders were able to defeat the Demons by removing the Eye from the Demon Realm and bringing it back to Earth. This reversed Xenogenesis, causing all of the Demons who had reached Earth to be immediately returned to the Demon Realm.

+Created by: Alan Moore; Alan Davis
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Created out of the surrounding landscape by the insane, reality warping mutant, Mad Jim Jaspers, to keep him company, the Crazy Gang survived his destruction and went on to become some of Britain's most inept criminals, often used as pawns by others.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Gretton, UK
+Trivia: In Britain, The Crazy Gang were a 1930s group of comedians, appearing in film and on stage.
+History:
+When the reality-warping Jim Jaspers decided that he needed friends, he used his powers to create the Crazy Gang (just as his counterpart from Earth-238 had created the original Crazy Gang). After giving the Crazy Gang life, Jaspers was murdered by the Fury, a creation of his late Earth-238 counterpart. The Crazy Gang survived the Fury and wandered off. They went on to become Britain's most inept supervillains. They subsequently placed an advertisement in a newspaper in order to find a new leader and, as a result, the Crazy Gang entered the employ of Slaymaster. Under his leadership, the gang committed a series of audacious crimes, robbing the Royal Mint, the National Gallery, and the British Museum. As Slaymaster had planned, these crimes attracted the attention of Captain Britain, who he captured. Having no further use for the Crazy Gang, Slaymaster dismissed them.; The Crazy Gang were later used by Arcade to kidnap Courtney Ross in order to lure Captain Britain and his teammates in Excalibur to Murderworld. Ross managed to fight off the Crazy Gang, but was captured by Arcade and his assistant Miss Locke. When Excalibur came to the rescue, the gang used a device created by Tweedledope to switch bodies with Excalibur - Captain Britain with Tweedledope, Meggan Puceanu with the Knave, Nightcrawler with the Jester, and Phoenix with the Executioner. Only Shadowcat escaped. Captain Britain in Tweedledope's body managed to alter the device, and Shadowcat, with Ross' help, managed to reverse the body-swap, and Excalibur defeated the Crazy Gang. Both the Crazy Gang and Arcade were apprehended after Excalibur defeated them.; Later, the Crazy Gang was involved in the disappearance of the population of a small English village. When Excalibur investigated, they found the villagers, and the Crazy Gang, in a strange, Alice in Wonderland-style underground lair. As it turned out, however, the villagers had consented to accompanying the Crazy Gang, and Excalibur left them alone.; ===Mercs for Money===; After Deadpool, and the Mercs for Money stole a Rigellian Recorder, they were attacked by the Crazy Gang who tried to steal the Recorder from them, the Mercs were able to fight them off, and escaped. The Crazy Gang eventually found Deadpool again at the Ozarks Kingpin HQ, who had won the Recorder at an auction conducted by the Mercs. They got into a fight with the Mercs, and Ozarks Kingpin henchmen, after Deadpool shot Tweedledope, and apparently killing him, the Crazy Gang retreated from the fight.

He arrived to find Ezra Keith dead, his death being investigated by Misty Knight and Ororo Munroe, and his affairs being executed by Luke Cage. The four became aware of Ezra's past with the Crusade through the investigation, and with the help of Eden Fesi, they brought a measure of justice against the perpetrators, and earned in their own sight their place as the Crusade's heirs.; Following Black Panther's gathering of evidence of outside influences fueling dissent in Wakanda, T'Challa reassembled the Crew to defeat the villains funding the dissent, and to then rescue Shuri, T'Challa's sister, from the Djalia.

While the Scarecrows birds kept Captain America at bay, the Eel blasted the Falcon out of the sky. When Captain America went to catch and rescue his partner, the Crime Wave escaped.; When attacked in their headquarters again by Captain America and the Falcon, the Crime Wave again defeated the duo. Plant Man created a giant vine which choked the two heroes into unconsciousness. The Crime Wave also captured a snooping Leila Taylor and agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. Sharon Carter.; Unfortunately, the Cowled Commander wanted the two heroes placed in a steel room and gassed while he gloated over a television monitor. Captain America discovered that the Viper's toxins had created a "super strength" within his body. The Captain tore down a steel door. And the two heroes soon attacked the Crime Wave again. This time the Falcon's bird Redwing took the Plant-Man's gun. The two heroes quickly made short work of the villainous team.; Captain America and the Falcon then captured the group's leader and un-masked the "Cowled Commander" and found that the leader was Brian Muldoon, disgruntled police sergeant.

+History:
+The Cult of the Jackal was a cult of genetically engineered New Men who revered not their creator the High Evolutionary but rather his former assistant Miles Warren aka the Jackal. The members of the New Men were animals evolved into humanoid form by the High Evolutionary, but some among them longed to be human. Miles Warren promised to make the members of the cult human and that they would one day follow him into the world of man. Miles Warren created a retrovirus based on DNA he claimed to have gotten from human volunteers that was able to convert these New Men into human form. The retrovirus worked only temporarily and soon turned the inoculated into walking corpses. Ben Reilly speculated this retrovirus may have been a precursor to the Jackal's Carrion Virus. The Jackal left the New Men every year and returned every summer. One summer, he boasted of creating two perfect clones: one of Peter Parker and the other of Gwen Stacy. Jackal promised to transfer all of the New Men into the bodies of cloned humans.; The High Evolutionary wanted to break the New Men of their devotion to Miles Warren and eventually returned to subjugate them once more. It was at this point the cult was established. He kidnapped the Gwen Stacy clone and faked tests to show that she was not a clone grow in a lab but rather a college student named Joyce Delaney infected with a retrovirus to rewrite her DNA into that of Gwen Stacy's and that the same was true for Anthony Serba and Spider-Man's clone. The High Evolutionary spun this tale for his people because he did not want his New Men to aspire to be clones as his viewed clones as counterproductive to evolution and he wanted the New Men to take pride in themselves as a race.; Eventually, Ben Reilly as the Scarlet Spider encountered the cult in the search for Kaine. The cult leader Anubia told the Scarlet Spider of her belief that he was neither the real Peter Parker or a clone but rather a genetically altered Anthony Serba. The High Evolutionary later told Ben that he banished the Jackal from Wundagore Mountain for creating a Jackal-Man creature without the High Evolutionary's approval. The High Evolutionary also explained that neither Ben or Peter was Anthony Serba and that the real Serba was murdered by Miles Warren and that was what unhinged Miles and created his Jackal persona.

+History:
+The Crimson Cadre were an elite military force created by the Inhuman Genetic Council following the self-exile of the Inhuman Royal Family to Earth. Under the command of General Ator the group originally included the flying Margoyle, the muck-man known as Glaboo, the electrically powered Pulssus, the tree man known as Rootar, and the amphibious Eelak among others. The first recorded mobilization of the Crimson Cadre came when the Fantastic Four ventured to the moon to question the Watcher over his recent activities on Earth. General Ator demanded that the Fantastic Four be shot out of the sky due to their past assistance to the royal family in defying the Genetic Council. Although they lost track of the Fantastic Four's Stealth-Hawk ship, they were able to later track down the Thing later on the surface of the moon outside the Watcher's Citadel. They ambushed the thing and nearly overpowered him until they were forced by by Kristoff Vernard's retainer Boris who threatened to unleash the Stealth-Hawk's weapons upon them. Ator ordered his troops to retreat, but vowed to get revenge against the Fantastic Four.; Not long after this, the Watcher's citadel was swallowed up in a vortex accidentally activated by Nathaniel Richards, which threatened to destroy the Inhumans home of Attilan. This coincided with the sorceress Morgan Le Fay raising the continent of Atlantis to the surface of Earth's oceans. Seeking to reclaim their ancestral home, the Genetic Council abandoned the Inhumans to their fate and went to Earth. Meanwhile, the Crimson Cadre discovered that a human was responsible and after arming themselves with an Atmo-Gun, traveled to Earth to get revenge against the human race, launching an attack in Florida. After the Cadre left Attilan, it was saved by the Fantastic Four, who shrunk it down to size and took it aboard their ship the Stealth-Hawk. The group were opposed by the members of Fantastic Force who were able to disable the Atmo Gun and trap the Crimson Cadre within a Negative Zone Barrier. While the Crimson Cadre were imprisoned, the Genetic Council formed and alliance with Morgan, recovered the shrunken city of Attilan and forced the royal family back into their service. The Crimson Cadre were later rescued by Karnak and were part of the defensive trying to stop the Fantastic Four, Fantastic Force, the Sub-Mariner, and Thor from reclaiming Atlantis and Attilan. Ultimately, Attilan was restored to its normal size and contained under a Negative Zone Barrier. Trapped outside, the Crimson Cadre were ordered to apprehend the Inhuman Royal Family by the Genetic Council's ruler Lord Arcadius, but failed.; Eventually, the Inhuman Royal Family came back into power, and while celebrating the return of Crystal, the Crimson Cadre was enthralled by Maximus and his ally Fabian Cortez who tried to take down the royal family. The Cadre's ranks were increased with the addition of the renegade Inhumans Leonus, Falcona, and Stallior. The Cadre was easily dispatched and later Maximus and Cortez were quickly defeated. The Crimson Cadre has not been seen since, and has possibly been disbanded.

+History:
+===Kezan Val's Western Corsairs===; The Western Corsairs was a pirate brotherhood led by Kezan Val, who used the water nymph Miri to cause ships to wreck on rocks, for him to gather the survivors and sell them as slaves.; He eventually captured Conan whom he intended to deliver to King Thamos of Argos. Conan tried to challenge Kezan Val for leadership of the brotherhood by invoking the Corsairs' law, but Kezan Val refused the challenge of a slave. Miri freed Conan, who challenged and defeated Kezan Val.; ===Conan's Crimson Brotherhood===; After letting Kezan Val flee, Conan rebranded the Western Corsairs as the Crimson Brotherhood, incorporating the pirates' slaves in his ranks, promising to the crew that had been captured along with him drop them off when they would reach the coast of Zingara. He also freed Miri. Kezan Val fled to King Thamos, revealing Conan's position to him. In exchange, he was instantly executed and fed to the sharks. The pirates and the Argossean fleet met, and the Crimson Brotherhood fell into the trap of King Thamos, only to be saved by Miri, who caused the Argossean's destruction and King Thamos' death.; The Crimson Brotherhood later fought Stygians. Their ship was burned down, and only Conan and five crewmen survived. Intending to flee to Kush, the six survivors fell asleep on the beach and were captured by Stygian soldiers. The soldiers were ordered to deliver them to the Priests of Set at the Temple of Set of the Order of the Serpent. There, Amintas, High Priest of the Order of the Serpent, who were secretly survivors of the Serpent Men of Lemuria, and held a creature they called "The Living God, Set". Amintas convinced to have Conan help him to destroy (in fact take over) the massive production of Black Lotus in Khemi, in exchange for the lives of his crewmen. Once Conan had set up the trap for Amintas to act, Amintas secretly fed the crewmen as sacrifice to "Set". Set managed to destroy Amintas and his Serpent Men and flee to a ship he had hired to wait for him near Khemi.

+Equipment: The cult had at least one suit of diving equipment that was fashioned in the shape of a swordfish. It did not appear to have any special adaptations.
+Weapons: The cult had swordfish that were trained to attack targets, and explosives.
+History:
+The Cult of the River God was formed by a Nazi sympathizer named Dolvin. If he had any official connection to the party or not is unknown. He developed a massive underground hideout beneath the Ohio River and developed a means to flood the river if he so wished. He formed his Cult of the River God, under the idea that if the United States did not go into peace talks with Nazi Germany, then a vengeful "river god" would cause the Ohio River to flood.; He amassed a group of followers who worshiped the swordfish. His hideout contained many such of the fish and each member had a swordfish tattooed on their biceps. The cult attracted the attention of the FBI who planted agent John Harris to spy on the group. As the cult gained publicity, Dolvin discovered John's duplicity and causing a freak flood unleashed one of his swordfish on him. This attack was spotted by the Sub-Mariner who failed to prevent Harris from being fatally impaled or to stop the swordfish.; However, learning of Harris' mission, Namor sought to infiltrate the cult as well. When meeting at their club house, Dolvin noticed that the tattoo Namor had put on his arm was incorrectly copied and tossed him into a pit of swordfish. Namor fought off the swordfish, and when he attempted to capture Dolvin, he set off a bomb in the house in an attempt to kill Namor. Both men survived, and Namor tracked Dolvin to his cult's secret hideout.; During one of Dolvin's sermons of surrender, Namor attempted to talk sense into the other cult memberes. Dolvin climbed into their giant idol of a swordfish and used it to break through the walls of the tunnel flooding it and drowning his followers. Dolvin fled in a diving suit fashioned in the image of a swordfish while activating all the flood gates for overflow the river. Namor tracked him down and pulled off his diving mask, forcing Dolvin to drown while he reversed the flow of the flooding.

+Trivia: The symbol of the cult is actually a stylized version of the Cosmic Control Rod.
+History:
+The Cult of the Negative Zone was an espionage group connected to the Annihilation Wave. Based out of a spa/club/meeting-space called The Other Side of Zero, they recruited members to buy businesses in a rough circle around the Baxter Building, with the ultimate aim of using hidden devices to augment the power of the portal to the Negative Zone to create a path for the Annihilation Wave to Earth.; The cult's liturgy is based heavily on a notion of duality. They draw followers by positing that while an organism will eventually die in the positive-matter universe, in the Negative Zone, it can live forever.; The Cult sent a follower to use Johnny Storm to gain access to the Baxter Building portal, but he stopped them. Later, Johnny Storm was presumed dead in the Negative Zone, only to return to Earth leading the Annihilation Wave.; As Annihilus has joined the Galactic Council in a pact of noninterference with Earth, the cult is presumably without power and not doing anything at the moment for now.

+Created by: Vince Alascia
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City, New York and island near the Sargasso Sea
+Equipment: Each member of this gang wore costumes that resembled humanoid octopi with four tentacles operating as arms and two operating as legs. They had suction cups on each tentacle.
+History:
+The "Creatures" -- as they came to be called -- were not creatures at all, but simply a bunch of ruthless killers who created an elaborate means of making it rich. Their leader was the owner of the East Shipping Company Inc., who came up with a method to defraud his insurance company out of millions of dollars.; To this end, he would charter shipments across the Atlantic. However, instead of loading the supplies into the ship, he would store them in a warehouse for later resale, instead loading the boats up with weighted crates. He then had the ships pilot a course near the Sargasso Sea in an area known as the "Graveyard of Ships" due to the thick seaweed deposits that could trap a ship. Then, he had one of his men fill the sea-cocks of the ship to flood the vessel making it sink. Meanwhile, more of his men, in octopus-creature costumes attacked the targeted ship killing the entire crew. They were stationed from an island nearby and traversed by foot over the thick seaweed. The creature costumes were used in the event that anyone survived the attacks on the ships so that they had a fantastic tale to tell that would throw off any investigations.; Such an event happened in 1945, with the lone survivor making it back to shore to tell his tale to the newsreels. The man told his story to Betty Ross who was hired by the insurance company to investigate any potential fraud coming from the East Shipping Company. To this end, Betty got a job as a secretary for the company to see what she could learn. Meanwhile, the film reel of the surviving sailors account was witnessed by Captain America and Bucky decided to lend their old friend a hand. Rushing to the East Shipping Company office, the heroes blew Betty's cover and a fight broke out, ending in Betty and the owner of the company being captured and hauled out. Questioning one of the men where they were going, he told Captain America that the gang was taking them to the Henry Morgan, the next ship they intend to sink.; Sneaking aboard the vessel, Cap and Bucky freed both Betty and the owner of the company, unaware that the owner was the mastermind. Just as Cap and Bucky were being told what was going on, the owner pulled a gun out on them and then had the trio tied to some pipes below deck. The owner then begins releasing the sea-cocks to flood the ship and then leaves the trio to drown while he reunited with his minions. Wearing their octopus creature costumes, the owner of the company led his men on an attack on the vessel. However, upon their arrival, they had found that Captain America, Betty, and Bucky had escaped and got the crew to pump the water out of the ship. Cap and Bucky then beat the attackers into submission, revealing them to be men in elaborate costumes. With the entire operation exposed, Captain America turned the "Creatures" over to the authorities where they were expected to face capital punishment for their crimes.

Eric the Red discovered Legacy was coming and sent Adam-X to kill him. Legacy and Adam-X fought each other until Legacy broke Eric the Red's control over Adam-X. The pair then went to the Crystal Claws' ship, the Aerie, to stop the Crystal Claws. They battled Eric the Red, the other Claws, and a swarm of Sidri and defeated them before destroying the Aerie.

They each had to decide where a soul would travel.; The Critics were first seen when Darrel Daniel changed Man-Thing and his friends into actors in a play about his life. The play ended with the reenactment of Darrel Suicide which annoyed the Critics.; The three then began their judgment on his soul. His life was neither morally or artistically worthwhile and none of the Critics wished him to enter Heaven, Hell, or the Realm Between. They decided that their only choice was to destroy his soul sending it into the oblivion of nothingness.; Richard Rory tried to defend Darrel Daniel after witnessing his life, but the Critics warned him if he interfered his soul would also be destroyed. Man-Thing tried to attack the Critics, which was pointless. Ayla Prentiss, in a moment of supreme sacrifice, offered her soul instead. This great gesture humbled the Critics and they decided to let him enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

+Page: Cyberwarriors (Earth-616)
+Full name: Cyberwarriors
+Other aliases: "Cyborg super-soldiers"
+First appearance: Deathlok Vol 2 17
+Created by: Greg Wright; Walter McDaniel
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Created by rogue scientists of the former Cybertek
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: formerly Paris, Cyberbase, Iraq and a stolen mobile Hydra base
+Equipment: Superhuman Strength: The Cyberwarriors have superhuman strength, which Silver Sable compared in level to Fin's. Supposedly, they were stronger than Deathlok.; Superhuman Endurance: Cyberwarriors have superhuman endurance. When the ceiling fell on Siege, burying him, he was unscathed, although it took him some time to get out. Their armor is not enough to withstand attacks from weapons such as the Wild Pack's or the Knights of Wundagore, nor they are powerful enough to resist Fin's superhuman strength. They are specifically protected against Deathlok's plasma gun.; Robotic/Cybernetic Construction: Cyberwarriors used human brains, lobotomized, simply as "wetware storage" that allowed them to run up to thirty-seven simultaneous programs, while having no mind of their own. Their organic components were dead, including simply lumps of proteins that the cybernetic systems kept alive, meaning that the Cyberwarrior felt nothing on its own - e.g., a Cyberwarrior would not feel adrenaline while in combat, and when Siege's consciousness took control of one, he compared it not to having a body of his own, but to driving a car or playing a video game. The Cyberwarriors did not need to breathe, meaning that they can survive underwater, and they can be transported using pneumatic tubes and other technologies. Even so, Cyberwarriors still had speech capabilities.; Strategic Programming: Having no mind of their own, the Cyberwarriors relied exclusively on their strategic programming written by weapons developer Ben Jacobs. While having some autonomous capacities, the Cyberwarriors were systematically controlled by an operator, either cyborg Mainframe, who used his own powers for this purpose (meaning that a green glow surrounded both Mainframe and the Cyberwarriors receiving his commands during the process) or Ben Jacobs from a terminal, using a broadcast that could be tracked by other cyborgs. This dependence on software led to vulnerabilities. A computing expert with access to a functional Cyberwarrior could enter its system and circulate an overriding shut-down command affecting all the Cyberwarriors in the same squad and area, and a Cyberwarrior could be accessed via cyberspace and controlled by another party such as an artificial intelligence.; Suppleness: A Cyberwarrior can rotate its wrist up to at least 180 degrees, which allow them to suddenly confront an enemy on their back.; Sensors: A Cyberwarrior had sensors that allowed it to find other Cyberwarriors in a very wide area, maybe worldwide.
+Weapons: Wrist-mounted shooter: The Cyberwarriors have wrist-mounted weapons that shot plasma and can pierce four feet of tungsten steel in less than .34 seconds. The developers claimed that the Cyberwarrior had more firepower than Deathlok. The Cyberwarrior off-the-shelf weapon is enough to damage another Cyberwarrior if directed so.
+Transportation: Flight: Cyberwarriors have jet-propelled flight capabilities, allowing them to both dogfight in close distances and to perform long-distance flights through several countries.; ===Weaknesses===; Cyberwarriors could be detected by advanced sensor technology such as the one used by SHIELD.; SHIELD developed a specific technology called Sonic Neural Disruptor that could be used to paralyze a Cyberwarrior, short-range, using a 30 megavolt field. The target Cyberwarrior, however, recovered soon afterward (maybe because it was controlled by John Kelly's artificial consciousness).
+Notes: Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Alternate Universes 2005, in Deathlok (Luther Manning from Earth-7484)'s profile, specifies that the Siege cyborg had been designed by Harlan Ryker. The Siege cyborg design is identical to the Cyberwarriors, different only because Siege is controlled by John Kelly's mind. That suggests that the Cyberwarriors were also designed by Ryker.
+Trivia: Trefkov never learned the name of the Cyberwarriors and simply called then "cyborg super-soldiers."
+History:
+===France===; Cybertek Systems, Inc. had been the applied cybernetics division owned by Roxxon Oil Corporation, developing and building advanced technology for sometimes military purposes. Cybertek head Harlan Ryker kidnapped programmer Michael Collins to implant the latter's brain on their cyborg Deathlok; but Collins' consciousness recovered and took over the system. Opposing to Ryker and Cybertek, Deathlok contributed to expose Cybertek's illegal activities, leading to the closure of Cybertek shortly after. Roxxon distanced from the scandal to avoid being damaged, but several members of Cybertek staff were either arrested or had arrest warrants on them, with international bounties on their heads. (Ryker himself was imprisoned but later was released or escaped). One of these people, Stanley Cross, believed that the U.S. government simply was trying to get a piece of the cake that Cybertek had earned.; This led to several former Cybertek employees (Ryker, Cross, weapon designer Ben Jacobs, cyborg contractor Mainframe, cybersurgeons Drs. Kimble and Hu, and several others) to take refuge in France, associating with other cybernetics specialists, including Fox and Borruso, to execute a program developing and selling Cyberwarriors to the highest bidder. They had a main underground base under the city of Paris and a secondary base in the outskirts, the later called Cyberbase. Even before finishing the tests, they had already made pre-sales all over the world, including to terrorist organization ULTIMATUM, to the terrorist Hydra-splinter branch Genesis Coalition (shipment already delivered at this point), and to the Iraqi military. The Cyberwarriors required lobotomized human brains as "wetware storage", allowing them to run their many programs. To achieve this, they initially bribed medical institutions so that they supplied them with brains of recently-deceased patients to be used in the Cyberwarriors but, as this was ineffective, Ryker made coma-induced patients to be falsely diagnosed as in terminal state, so that their brains could be accessed - even thou Kimble complained at the immorality of the operation.; Ryker was secretly in cahoots with Roxxon's President of International Development Clayton Burr, who would manipulate the events so that Deathlok visited the Cyberwarriors base, apparently to allow them to capture Deathlok and take over the cyborg technology. Indeed, Burr recruited Deathlok to stop the secret Cyberwarrior operation in France, claiming that the Cyberwarrior technology belonged to Roxxon. To bait Deathlok beyond his morals (Deathlok opposed to those warrior cyborgs being sold around the world), Burr told him that Michael Collins' body was being kept in France by Dr. Hu, and that the brain could be restored, which was true - Ryker was keeping Collins' body there. Burr had also warned Ryker that Deathlok would go the base, so he'd be on alert. However, Burr also hired cyborg mercenary Coldblood-7 to murder both Deathlok and Ryker, betraying his ally for profit. Simultaneous to all this, international law enforcement agency SHIELD wanted to obtain the Cyberwarrior technology to be used by them while also going after Roxxon's illegal deals, and SHIELD's director Nick Fury tried to mislead Deathlok so that he would not go to Paris by openly lying to him.; Deathlok did go to Paris and called his former ally Silver Sable, leader of the mercenary group Wild Pack, for reinforcements. They discovered that a Parisian branch of ULTIMATUM had bought Cyberwarriors, and raided the ULTIMATUM base so that the terrorists would reveal the Cyberwarrior secret base location. Meanwhile, Ryker arrived to the Paris base, to check the results of the final phases of his own plan, witnessing, along with Cross and Jacobs, the Cyberwarriors being tested under controlled conditions. Jacobs was angry at Mainframe because the later had prevented him from killing Deathlok in the past; but Jacobs required a prosthetic super-strong armor to move, and Mainframe used his own powers to control Jacobs' armor, forcing him to work as a forklift for warehouse duty against his own wishes - Jacobs complained that he was better than the Cyberwarriors for Jacobs had an independent mind, but Mainframe countered that Jacobs was erratic and prone to not follow orders, making him far more useless than the Cyberwarriors in combat. Jacobs was however in charge of controlling the Cyberwarriors during combat operations, something similar to what he had done with Cybertek Worker Ants in Estrella, and during that fight Jacobs had knowingly disregarded Ryker's strategy to pursue his own ends.; Deathlok and the Wild Pack raided the underground base through the warehouse where Jacobs and Mainframe were. Jacobs immediately wrestled Deathlok, being his match in a one-on-one, while Mainframe called in a squad of Cyberwarriors for reinforcements and directed them from his own force field-protected platform. The Wild Pack fought the Cyberwarriors, and Sable focused on Mainframe, correctly deducing he was controlling the enemies. During the fight, the Wild Pack proved superior to the Cyberwarriors, and the invaders also discovered that the Cyberwarriors were operated by human brains, not knowing that those were lobotomized. Also during the fight, Deathlok tried to connect to a Cyberwarrior's software so as to override Mainframe's control over it - but at that point, the consciousness of the first Deathlok, John Kelly, was active in Deathlok's hardware as an artificially-intelligent software and, wanting more independence and mobility, Kelly took this chance to insert himself in the Cyberwarrior and control it. Taking the alias "Siege", Kelly used his new Cyberwarrior body against the other Cyberwarriors, contributing to turn the tide so that the Cyberwarriors were systematically being beaten and destroyed. Mainframe (wrongly believing that Siege was a glitched Cyberwarrior) contacted Ryker to report that, as expected, Deathlok had attacked but, not as expected, Deathlok and his allies were wrecking the stock of Cyberwarriors they intended to sell. Ryker ordered Mainframe to retreat and abandon the base, so as to protect as many Cyberwarriors as possible. As Jacobs insisted on fighting Deathlok, Mainframe captured Jacobs in his own force field, then wrecked a way out through the Seine River, flooding the base. While Sable obtained information about the secondary base from the computers, Siege and Deathlok continued their battle against the Cyberwarriors - both the Cyberwarriors and Siege flew over Paris near Notre Dame and several bystanders were killed. After the fight, Sable told Deathlok where the secondary Cyberwarrior base was, but she herself and the Wild Pack left to fight their own enemies, the Genesis Coalition, who had received a shipment of Cyberwarriors.; Deathlok and Siege tried to blow up the remainder of the main Cyberwarrior base, but SHIELD appeared to stop them, so as to do a forensic analysis on the facility and they even tried to apprehend Siege using Cyberwarrior-specific Sonic Neural Disruptors. The parties struggled, and Siege was accidentally buried alive - but he emerge unscathed soon afterward, after the others had left so SHIELD believed Siege had been killed. En route to the Cyberbase, Deathlok was ambushed by Coldblood-7, but the former managed to convince the later that they were both on the same side and that Roxxon had deceived Coldblood - so Coldblood allied with Deathlok, both going after Ryker (Coldblood to get a bounty on Ryker's head).; ===Iraq===; The Cyberwarrior team and the remaining Cyberwarriors regrouped in the Cyberbase, where Jacobs told them that, for what he heard during the fight, the rogue Cyberwarrior was being controlled by Kelly's consciousness - making Mainframe and Ryker consider the commercial possibilities of compressing a human consciousness in a chip that could be inserted in a body. Dr. Kimble also complained openly about the unethical measurements they were taking, and Ryker transported a shipment of Cyberwarriors to Baghdad, Iraq, in a first attempt to sell those to the Iraqi military, (specifically a Colonel Sinje) which wanted to militarily recover Kuwait. This transaction was detected by SHIELD, and, expecting problems there, they took their Helicarrier to Iraq.; The Cyberbase was first attacked by Siege, who wanted to kill Ryker and damaged Jacobs' armor. Soon afterward, Coldblood and Deathlok joined independently. Mainframe activated the Cyberwarriors as a defense. Ryker, wanting to recover control over the situation, murdered Hu and took Kimble hostage, saying that only Hu and Kimble could restore Deathlok's brain to his original body, which was kept in the Cyberbase; and, Ryker also activated a bomb in Deathlok's body that would trigger a nuclear warhead in the facility, with Ryker being the only person who could stop the detonation - thus, he thought, Deathlok would be forced to save Ryker's own life. However, Kimble escaped Ryker's grasp, and Coldblood put his weapon on Ryker's head. Ryker then asked Jacobs for help, and both Jacobs and Ryker were teleported to Iraq, their other allies abandoned. The former Cybertek scientists worked with Deathlok and Coldblood to successfully stop the nuclear detonation and, once they did that, Siege tracked the Cyberwarrior signal using his own Cyberwarrior body; the three cyborgs agreed to go after them, and Deathlok even hacked SHIELD's communications to pinpoint the Cyberwarriors, as the Helicarrier had detected them in detail.; In Iraq, Ryker and Jacobs met with Sinje in the secret basement of a military installation, where they coordinated to stage a 10-Cyberwarrior attack aiming to destroy the oil fields of northern Kuwait, with Jacobs controlling the attackers from a nearby bunker. The fields were surprisingly defended by airborne Siege and by Deathlok and Coldblood, both riding Deathlok's flying vehicle Dragonfly. Sinje was surprised seeing his Cyberwarriors destroyed. Overpowered, the Cyberwarriors retreated to attack a nearby American Military Outpost, where they were to destroy all the equipment and soldiers; but then even the Helicarrier joined the fray with artillery attacks. Deathlok's scanning found the source of the Cyberwarriors command and informed his allies. Deathlok literally surfed on a damaged, flying Cyberwarrior to attack the bunker, using the Cyberwarrior as a ram to break its wall (and knock Jacobs in the while), then battered Ryker; Nick Fury stopped Deathlok from killing Ryker, promising that Ryker and other traitors would be legally punished - and indeed Fury used Ryker to arrest Burr too. The Cyberwarrior sale to Iraq was stopped, and Siege left to track yet other Cyberwarrior shipment while Deathlok, Coldblood and SHIELD returned to the United States.; ===Atlas Mountains===; Siege tracked several groups of Cyberwarriors, frequently by intercepting the Avengers's distress calls. The last of them before joining Silver Sable again was in the Atlas Mountains, Africa.; ===Transia===; In the Mediterranean Sea, the criminal organization Genesis Coalition received their shipment of several squads of Cyberwarriors onboard a stolen Hydra mobile base. Coalition co-leader Dmitri Petrovich had been a firm believer in the Cyberwarriors' firepower and a supporter of the transaction, although not all of the Coalition leadership shared his trust. The Coalition began a several-hour process to program the Cyberwarriors to send them on an attack against Wundagore Mountain, in the European country Transia, which they intended to turn into their own headquarters to extend their power base from there, and maybe attack strategic targets in range like Latveria Their activities, however, were detected by Hydra's Baron Strucker, who wanted revenge on the Coalition for betraying Hydra and hired mercenary group Next Wave to recover the stolen base. The Coalition was also found the Wild Pack and, as soon as "Uncle Morty" pinpointed the Genesis Coalition, he reported to Sable, who stopped any other activity to prepare her Stealthcraft and a cloaked submarine and lead the Wild Pack personally against the Coalition - even if this activity was unpaid and her own accounts were brittle. As this was a maritime operation, she obtained the help of aquatic superhero Stingray.; Both Next Wave and the Wild Pack overcame the external security and raided the Genesis Coalition mobile base. At the alert, Petrovich ordered to seal other sub-sections and send a squad of Cyberwarriors, which would first fight Next Wave, and then the Wild Pack who arrived later. Coalition co-leader Ivan Trefkov then flooded the area, knowing that the Cyberwarriors would survive but the enemies, most of them being humans, would not; and several Cyberwarriors were already transferred safely via pneumatic tubes. Wild Pack member Raul Quentino found escape pods for the intruders to evacuate safely, while the Genesis Coalition abandoned their base and, believing their enemies dead, started the Cyberwarrior attack against Wundagore.; Siege tracked the Cyberwarriors to Transia, pretending to join them, then attack the other Cyberwarriors. The Knights of Wundagore were released to protect their home mountain against the attack. The Wild Pack joined the fray in their stealthcraft and, against Sable's wishes, Next Wave helped them. The Cyberwarriors were obliterated, and the Genesis Coalition retreated.; Cyberwarriors have not been seen since, apparently having been discontinued.

+Transportation: The Croyos ride horses
+History:
+The Croyos were a band of renegade Native American tribe that existed during the days of the American Frontier. The Croyos were mortal enemies of the Apache tribe led by chief Red Hawk and hated the white settlers in the area for taking over the land. They were led by Yellow Feather and their best warrior was Yellow Feather's son Stalking Panther. The tribe eventually sought to wipe out both Red Hawk's tribe and the soldiers that resided at the nearby Fort Madison. Stalking Panther also sought to defeat the Apache's greatest warrior the Apache Kid and take his lover White Swan as his bride.; To this end, Stalking Panther and his warriors captured the Apache Kid and took him prisoner. With the hero out of the way, the Croyos beat their war drums alerting both the soldiers and Apaches to their impending attack. As the Apaches came to aid the soldiers at Fort Madison they were ambushed by the Croyos. White Swan managed to track down the Apache Kid and distracted Stalking Panther long enough to free her love. Apache Kid then beat Stalking Panther into submission. Changing into his alter ego of Aloysius Kare, Apache Kid brought Stalking Panther to the battle. Seeing his son prisoner, Yellow Feather ordered his warriors to stand down. Yellow Feather agreed to a challenge by Kare to battle Stalking Panther. If Stalking Panther was defeated the Croyos were to leave the region. Stalking Panther, still whipped after his battle with the Apache Kid fainted before the fight could start and thus forfeited. The Croyos honored the deal and went into exile and have not been seen since.; Some months later the Croyos once against sought to wage war against the white settlers in the area, sending a warrior to the Apache village to petition chief Red Hawk to allow the Croyos permission to travel through their land. Red Hawk refused even at the threat of war with the Croyos. The Apache Kid then travelled to the Croyo village and challenged chief Yellow Feather to a one-on-one fight. Apache Kid won the bout but Yellow Feather attempted to shoot him with a shotgun. When the Apache Kid did not try to stop him, Yellow Feather decided against it realizing that such an action would shame his people and he surrendered promising not to wage war against the Apaches or settlers.

+In 1955, while representing local Harlem activists at an Asian-African conference in Indonesia, Ezra Keith and Frank Roberts met a man named Asim, who claimed to be from Wakanda and who proposed that while their activists were overpowered by the power of police and lawmakers, with superpowers they could make the conflict more level.; By 1956, Ezra & Frank were smuggling equipment into a secret base under a diner in Harlem in preparation for their crusading super team, and watching news of other super teams forming around the world.; In 1957, the Crusade became active, taking a contract as hired muscle for the Maggia to defeat their enemies. However, once the fight was won, the Crusade turned on the Maggia and threatened them, forcing their criminals out of Harlem.; In 1964, the Crusade went to Mississippi in response to news of a crime against a local black woman and the police not moving passionately to catch the perpetrator. They committed vigilantism to force him to confess.; By 1969, the Crusade was doing kidnappings for ransom, and Ezra disapproved, so Frank convinced the rest of the group to kick him out of his leadership position.; In 1972, the Crusade was dead. Half the group was in prison or on the run. By this time, the group had been met by Baron Strucker, who had been revealed as the actual backer of Asim all those years ago, and had successfully convinced the group to perform actions that brought them into conflict with other heroes. During a heated argument with Ezra Keith, Frank Roberts pulled a weapon on his former friend, only to be disappeared by the last member of the group, Marla the Gates. Ezra and Marla admitted that their hope of forming a revolutionary force had failed, and that their only hope now was for their goals to be fought for by future generations.

+The Creeps were an elderly couple who began suffering from empty nest syndrome after their son moved out of their house - or so they claimed. Rather than finding a healthy outlet for their loneliness, they began abducting children and imprisoning them in their basement. Once their prisoners died, the Creeps would simply go out and abduct another child to replace them.; The Creeps once attempted to kidnap Jubilee when she first became a student at the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, though they fled when she noticed a nearby police officer.; Years later, the Creeps began abducting homeless teenagers and youths living at the F.E.A.S.T. Center, beginning a manhunt by the NYPD, vigilantes like Punisher and Scream, and bounty hunters like the Sandman to apprehend those responsible. Oblivious to this, the Creeps met their end when they attempted to abduct a homeless boy called Basquait and were executed by Demagoblin - a demon whose fanatically religious cult Basquait was a member of.

+Equipment: The warriors of the Leopard Cult wore leopard fur, and wielded large shields.
+Weapons: The warriors of the Cult of the Leopard used arrows, scimitars (or similar curved swords) as well as double-edged curved daggers.
+Notes: The leopard cult was created by Robert E. Howard in the story "Wolfshead" (Weird Tales; April, 1926), a non-Kull story freely adapted by Marvel Comics in Kull the Conqueror Vol 1 8 (May, 1973), the original Marvel story written by editor Roy Thomas, the script by Len Wein, and the art by Marie and John Severin.; Robert E. Howard also mentioned "black leopard cults" in his story "Dig Me No Grave" (Weird Tales
+History:
+The legendary Cult of the Leopard was a "demonic" cult dwelling in an island in unmapped waters, during the Pre-Cataclysmic Age, circa 18,500 BC. Both island and cult were known in tales and legends. Their isle was the seat of the castle of Dom Vinsala, a tyrannical merchant who had enslaved the local villagers. Demontur, a werewolf seeking death through mercenary job, came to the isle. He realized that the Leopard-Cult worshippers might possess the power he needed, but they scorned him as one who kept them enslaved.; Returning from a campaign at sea against the Lemurian pirates, Kull and his forces were stranded on the island, and was informed by the slave-scholar Kuthulos about the Cult of the Leopard. Later that day, Brule led a small scouting party of Black Legionnaries, but was himself wounded in an attack of the Leopard Cult's warriors, but was saved by the arrival of Demontur who slew the Leopard-Men, before he presented the Valusians to Dom Vinsala, his host.; After Demontur, in beast form, slaughtered two locals, the villagers blamed Dom Vinsala, who accused the Leopard-Men in turn, and the village leader was imprisoned by Vinsala. Unrest quickly escalated as the Leopard-Cult was stirring the villagers to violence. After Demontur turned in the castle and attacked Vinsala's daughter Marcina, Vinsala accused once more the Leopard-Cult, despite Kull denying it.; The conflict soon escalated, as the Leopard-Cult rallied villagers toward revolution. Led by the Leopard-Men, the villagers surrounded Vinsala's castle, burned his ships, and demanded the return of their leader, to what Vinsala answered by executing a captive villager and throwing his corpse out of the castle, into the revolted crowd. Kull, now convinced of Vinsala's madness and resolve, armed his troop to force Vinsala to surrender. Vinsala, well decided to mutilate the village leader until they retreated was attacked by Kull's forces, as well as by Demontur, who slaughtered Vinsala and threw his corpse down into the crowd, putting an end to the fighting.; Later mentions of "leopard cults" were made during the Modern Age, including the "leopard cults" mentioned by John Grimlan (cults involved in black magic and considered by Grimlan to be among the "dregs of the unknown", along with the Voodoo rituals), and the Leopard Cult that served Fu Manchu and were gathered along other groups in the Order of the Golden Dawn.; ==Facts==; The Cult of the Leopard sharpened their teeth to razor point.

+History:
+After the fall of Krakoa due to the actions of Orchis, Professor X sequestered himself on the island, succumbing to despair. Unbeknownst to Xavier, Mr. Sinister, having implanted a piece of himself into Xavier's mind, began piloting Xavier's body while he slept, working on a way to defeat the Enigma, a dominion derived from his original self.; After Xavier discovered Sinister in his mind, the two agreed to a détente in order to work together to stop the Enigma. The pair discovered that all four clones of the original Nathaniel Essex, including Sinister, had achieved dominionhood in various timelines created by Sinister's Moira Engine, only for their attempts to be usurped and consumed by the Enigma.; In an attempt to undo Enigma from ever coming into existence, the pair moved No-Place to almost outside of space-time, where they would be invisible to the Enigma. With Rachel Summers and Rasputin IV recruited to their cause, and Mother Righteous as their prisoner, allowing them to communicate with the mutants trapped in the White Hot Room, they embarked on their plan. In order to hide his true identity from the others, in the fear that they would refuse to work with him, Sinister downloaded his consciousness into a clone of Cypher.; The first attempt was to prevent Enigma's birth by undoing the four successful ascensions to dominionhood by the four Essex clones, with the nominally destroyed timelines accessible through the White Hot Room. While Rasputin IV was dispatched to prevent the ascensions, she ultimately failed, forcing them to turn towards another avenue.; Xavier instead began planning to travel backwards in time to before Moira MacTaggert's powers manifested, in order to kill her. This would prevent Sinister from ever using her DNA to create the Moira Engine, and thus prevent Enigma from coming online, but also undo all the events that led to the creation of Krakoa.; With help from the Five within the White Hot Room, the X-Men team selected and killed during the Hellfire Gala were resurrected and guided by Rachel into defunct timelines in search of a version of Moira who was still organic, unlike her mechanized counterpart in Earth-616.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+===Origin===; Over the ages, Apocalypse often banded together Earth's best human warriors to serve in an army of foot soldiers, the Dark Riders.; In early years, the Riders of the Dark were an army that served Apocalypse. Through unrevealed means, and even after centuries without doing so, he could summon them to fight his battles.; ===15th century===; By the 15th century, it was believed that the Riders of the Dark were "myths" and "superstitious nonsense used to scare soldiers before their first battle.; During the Crusades, in Wallachia, in 1459, after Vlad Dracul had defeated the Turks who fled, the Riders of the Dark entered the battlefield, led by the Horseman War, routed his army.; ===19th century===; In 1897, as Dracula and targeted Apocalypse's Clan Akkaba, Apocalypse went to Wallachia where Akkaba's fittest-turned-Vampire Hamilton Slade had gone into hiding after losing the whole vampirized Clan in battle. Apocalypse summoned the Riders of the Dark for the first time in centuries to fight Dracula's vampires.; ===Modern Age===; The full origin of the individual members of the modern Dark Riders remains unclear. Presumably, the Riders were members of the Inhuman society, a genetic offshoot of humanity who for many years lived in the Blue Area of the Moon, and were distant relative of the Royal Family. At some point they were contacted by the evil mutant immortal Apocalypse and were persuaded to join his ideological view and form a team under his guidance.; For purposes of his own, Apocalypse wanted the son of the mutant hero Cyclops, who was then a member of the original team of mutant heroes known as X-Factor, alongside his life-long love, Phoenix. X-Factor was also then making their headquarters in the sentient spaceship called Ship, once owned by Apocalypse. Apocalypse ordered the Riders of the Storm (Hard-Drive, Gauntlet, Barrage, Foxbat, Psynapse, and Tusk) to invade Ship. During the invasion, Psynapse's attack jump-started Phoenix's dormant telepathy and Harddrive succeeded in mentally taking over Ship. X-Factor was aided in the battle by a woman from the future known as Askani, although they failed to prevent the apparent destruction of Ship by the Riders and the kidnapping of Nathan. X-Factor was rescued by the Inhumans, who revealed the nature of the Riders.; The Riders proceeded to attack the Inhumans while Apocalypse experimented on Nathan with a so-called Techno-organic Virus. Eventually, the heroes defeat the Riders and rescue Nathan, only to be forced to send him into the future with Askani in order to save his life from the virus.; Having escaped to Apocalypse's fortress in Egypt, the Riders were attacked by the villain Stryfe, who defeated Apocalypse. Claiming superiority, Stryfe demanded the Riders to work for him as he proved himself more fit, and they agreed. On Stryfe's behalf, the Dark Riders attacked various teams of mutant heroes, keeping the teams off-balance as Stryfe manipulated events around them in attempting revenge on his long-time enemy, Nathan Summers, now known as Cable. During these events, the Dark Riders battled Apocalypse, defeating him and leaving him for dead. However, when Stryfe apparently died in a final battle with Cable, the Dark Riders were no longer in direct service to anyone.; The Dark Riders soon began operating independently, testing the fitness of mutants in battle with them. One such mutant, Mesmero, was apparently killed by the group (although in reality he used his mutant powers of hallucinations to make the Riders believe him to be dead.) In a similar fashion, Psynapse was deemed unworthy by virtue of a mistake in battle and was shot, and later, Foxbat was hunted down and killed.; The Dark Riders (now including Deadbolt, Hurricane, Lifeforce, and Spyne) then targeted Caliban, which led them into conflict with Caliban's allies, Cable, Domino, and Storm. The heroes thwarted the Rider's assassination and attempted to track them down. The Riders allowed themselves to be followed in order to spring a trap, revealing a new leader of the Riders: Cable's son from the future, who now called himself Genesis. The Riders captured Cable, but he was freed by his allies and Genesis and the Riders were forced to retreat.; Under Genesis' leadership, the Dark Riders hoped to gain revenge against the mutant hero teams and even their enemy Mister Sinister, but their attacks were always repulsed.; Genesis soon embarked on a plan to capture the mutant hero Wolverine. Wolverine had previously been bonded to the metal adamantium, but at the time had the adamantium removed from his body by the villain Magneto. Genesis hoped to restore Wolverine's adamantium and brainwash him into being Genesis' so-called Horseman of Death, and had ordered the Dark Riders (including their newest member, Dirt Nap) to capture and remove the adamantium from the villain Cyber to accomplish this. When this proved successful, the Riders captured Wolverine. However, he rejected the process that would restore adamantium to his system, reverting to a feral state. Escaping, the berserk Wolverine slew the Dark Riders and Genesis, although many apparently survived the massacre.; Many of the Riders appeared again, namely Barrage, Gauntlet, Hard-Drive, and Psynapse. They were once again agents of the villain Stryfe, who reappeared to embark on a scheme to destroy all those who possessed telepathic powers. In so doing, the Riders attacked Phoenix, being confronted by Madelyne Pryor, Phoenix from another universe. Pryor killed two of the Riders in the battle and was joined by her ally, Nate Grey, a.k.a. X-Man. Psynapse's attack on X-Man reinvigorated X-Man's telepathic powers that were believed to have burned out and was killed as well. X-Man also defeated Tusk by literally ripping him apart. In the midst of the battle, Gauntlet disappeared.; After mutants began falling ill and dying due to the effects of the Terrigen Mist spread out into the atmosphere, the Dark Riders returned. The Riders began murdering mutant healers, believing that their powers were a violation of the natural order, their reasoning being that mutants had had their chance at survival, and that delaying their extinction was counter to the natural order.; They attracted the attention of Magneto and his X-Men, who resolved to protect the mutant healers the Dark Riders might target. While the Riders managed to kill Elixir despite the interference of the X-Men, they managed to secure Triage before the Riders could get to him. While the X-Men attacked the Riders' lair in the hope of taking them out preemptively, the Riders set a trap for the X-Men and left to attack Genosha, where Magneto was protecting Triage alone.; They managed to critically injure Triage, despite heavy interference from Magneto, but when the rest of the X-Men arrived to back him up, Magneto was able to overpower the Riders. He left them dead or critically injured on the island, which he then detonated and sunk into the sea with a series of explosive charges, finishing off the Riders.

+Reality: Earth-148611
+Notes: D.P.7 was a 32-issue comic book series published by Marvel Comics under their New Universe imprint from 1986 to 1989. Along with Justice and Psi-Force, it was one of the few New Universe titles to last for 32 issues.
+Trivia: In Avengers West Coast #65 (Dec 1990), D.P.7 illustrator Paul Ryan drew a splash page featuring Wonder Man in a graveyard amongst several D.P. 7 members gravestones. This means the 616 version of the characters died.
+History:
+The title stands for Displaced Paranormals and refers to the seven main characters of the series (who never referred to themselves by this name since they didn't look to be superheroes, unlike Kickers, Inc.). All of them received superhuman powers as a result of the stellar phenomenon known as the White Event (later revealed to be the result of an individual's attempt to give up a cosmic-powered weapon).; == Main characters ==; Randy O'Brien, nicknamed Antibody, was a medical resident who could project from his body a dark figure of himself (also called an "antibody", a word play on the medical term) that flew, could become intangible, and transfer its host's (O'Brien's) memories to another person by physical contact; David Landers, nicknamed Mastodon, was a cheese factory worker who became stronger as new muscles grew into his body, an effect that caused him great pain. He had a crush on Stephanie, but felt that a relationship between then would be hopeless. He was drafted into the military, but went AWOL.; Jeff Walters, nicknamed Blur, was a fast food restaurant manager whose body vibrated so fast that he could not stand still. He required vast amounts of food for his accelerated metabolism and could also move at superhuman speed. He was drafted into the Army's Paranormal Platoon and participated in The War.; Charlotte "Charly" Beck, nicknamed Friction, was a dance student who acquired the power to make herself, anything she touched, and any other object she thought about within a limited range friction-free enough to make the object or person slide effortlessly. Over time, Beck learned to make her power object-specific or to increase friction to stick things together, and during The Draft became a special CIA operative, but her program was discontinued.; Dennis "Scuzz" Cuzinski was a teenage dropout who produced an acid-like substance from his skin, which he himself was immune to. He could increase his skin's production of the chemical, to the point of burning through a steel plate in ten seconds, but could not stop it, turning anything he wore into a tattered ruin within days and effecting other objects such as bedsheets and furniture that he came in regular contact with. He learned to form his chemical-laden saliva with his skin secretion into "gobs" or "spitballs" that he could throw, and was later able to further increase production of the substance temporarily when angry or excited, making his body so caustic that it could incinerate flammable material on contact. By the end of D.P. 7, he became a member of the Cult of the White Event, which believed that paranormal powers were a gift from God, and attempted to stop the Cure, another paranormal who'd acquired the power to remove others' paranormalities. The others stopped Scuzz from killing the Cure, but not without Scuzz succeeding in severely burning the Cure's hands through which his power had to be projected. As a result of the failed attempt, Scuzz became powerless, but was still accepted by the Cult because of the circumstances of his power loss.; Stephanie Harrington, initially nicknamed Viva but later known as Glitter, was a housewife and mother of three who had the power to heal and energize others by physical contact. The use of this power was accompanied by the appearance of twinkling stars and when not used internalized itself to make Harrington superhumanly strong. She eventually became divorced from her husband who placed her in the Clinic and was recruited into the CIA during The Draft. Her husband agreed to take her back, but only because he secretly wanted her to cure him of HIV.; Lenore Fenzl, nicknamed Twilight, was a retired Latin teacher whose body constantly produced "fatigue-poison inducing bioluminescence" that could paralyze and render unconscious individuals exposed to it. The amount of time would depend on how long one was exposed, and individuals with accelerated metabolisms like Walters would slow to normal speed. Fenzl's power required her to remain covered over her entire body at all times, and she later discovered that exposing others to her bioluminescence renewed her youth and vitality. After leaving the Clinic for the second time she became a special CIA agent during The Draft. She was apparently killed some time later on a mission, though her body was never found.; The main group grew to include several supporting characters by the end of the series:; Merriam Sorenson nicknamed "Sponge", could absorb moisture from the air and release it as pressurized streams of water. She had an unrequited crush on Dave Landers, forming a love triangle with him and Stephanie Harrington. She was cured of her condition by the Cure, a paranormal who could restore others to normal.; George Mullaney, nicknamed Mutator, changed form every 48 hours; Jenny Swensen of Codename: Spitfire crossed over to D.P.7 when the former series was cancelled. Exposure to toxic sludge from The Pitt mutated her body and gave her metallic skin and enhanced strength. She was recruited to the CIA along with the other women, and later moved with them to New York. Known as Chrome, she became a sidekick to the telekinetic Captain Manhattan, one of the few costumed superheroes in the New Universe, whom she fell in love with. Though she seemed on the verge of having the Cure remove her powers at the end of the series, it was later revealed in the pages of Quasar that Jenny chose to keep her powers.; Randy O'Brien first encountered David Landers when he was wheeled into the hospital in incredible pain. Landers raged until two dark arms sprung from O'Brien's torso that restrained him long enough for O'Brien to give Landers a tranquilizer that rendered him unconsciousness. The two compared their experiences, and O'Brien read a classified ad for the Clinic for Paranormal Research, a facility designed to help individuals who'd acquired strange abilities. Through his antibody (see above), he relayed the information to Landers and they traveled to the Clinic under assumed names. They were at first convinced of the Clinic staff's sincerity and were enrolled into Therapy Group C, where they met Walters, Beck, Cuzinski, Harrington, and Fenzl. Late one night, O'Brien's antibody spied on the Clinic staff, at least four of whom were paranormals themselves, and learned the Clinic had plans to make an army out of them, to be led by Philip Nolan Voigt, the Clinic director who acquired the power to absorb and magnify anyone else's powers for his own use.; Therapy Group C fought off the Clinic staff and the paranormal Hackbarth who could manipulate others' nervous systems. They escaped into the night and over the next year (twelve issues; unlike most comics, a year in the New Universe equalled a year in our own), the paranormals adjusted to life with their powers. Scuzz ran away at one point; he and later everyone else were eventually apprehended by bounty hunters and returned to the Clinic. O'Brien and Landers, the last two to arrive, found their friends had been behavior-modified to not remember their escape or the Clinic's ulterior motives. O'Brien and Landers defeated Voight and he disappeared from the Clinic, although he later reappeared to run for President in 1988. He used his powers to win the election, but subsequently lost his powers after a battle with a more powerful paranormal.; Without Voigt and his senior staff (the aforementioned Hackbarth was in a coma, memory manipulator Charne was choked to death by an antibody, and telecognitive Speck was shot) to surreptitiously maintain order, paranormals at the Clinic soon formed their own special interest groups/gangs (one was comprised of Clinic teenagers, one of African Americans, etc.). The potential for major disaster was soon fulfilled, and law enforcement came in to shut the Clinic down, killing many of the patients in the process. By this time, most of the reformed Therapy Group C (along with a few other residents of the Clinic) left to find Walters, who had run to Pittsburgh where his family had been caught in a major disaster. Except for Scuzz, the Displaced Paranormals begin to work with the government after all male paranormals were drafted into the United States Army after the destruction of Pittsburgh, believed to be caused by a nuclear weapon (though actually caused by another attempt to relinquish the Star Brand). Female paranormals became highly-sought-after assets for other agencies like the CIA. With the exception of Walters, who continued in the Army, the other paranormals either went AWOL or left the CIA with many of them moving to New York City and trying to live normal lives, in the face of the public leeriness of Paranormals.; In the city, some ongoing romances played out, while other Paranormals decided to become part of a superhero team. The appearance of a paranormal known as the Cure, who could take away someone's paranormality with a touch, led many paranormals with more disfiguring or inconvenient paranormalities to have theirs taken away.; When the War was over, the Paranormals (those that had not been cured) returned to their lives as normally as they could.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Darkholder Castle, Transylvania; formerly Scottish Highlands, Scotland, United Kingdom
+Weapons: Darkhold: An ancient book with indestructible pages containing a number of powerful black magic spells.
+Notes: The Darkholders, especially in their depiction in Carnage (Volume 2), are seemingly based on the secret societies and hidden cults of the Cthulhu Mythos who were working to awaken slumbering eldritch beings, such as the cultists who worshiped Cthulhu in H. P. Lovecraft's short story "The Call of Cthulhu".
+History:
+===Early Darkholders===; The "Darkholders" started out as former followers of the sorcerer Thulsa Doom. After Doom's death at the hands of King Kull of Valusia, they used the indestructible loose parchments and scrolls of Chthon to create the first vampire, Varnae. Varnae turned some of the cult's other members into vampires as well. Other vampires were Nosferatu, Verdelet, Saracen, Maracen, and Boy.; Some of the first vampires, such as Boy, Maracen, Saracen, Verdelet and presumably Lamia, became known as the Ancient. It is unknown whether any or all of these vampires were Darkholders themselves.; The surviving "Darkholders" relocated the loose parchments and scrolls before Atlantis sank in the Great Cataclysm.; The Darkholders, or groups of Darkholders, have returned ever since all the way up to the Modern Age.; ===6th century AD===; In the 6th century AD, the evil sorceress Morgan Le Fay and her followers gathered most of the loose parchments and scrolls of Chthon and bound them into a book known as the Darkhold. Morgan and her coven venerated the Darkhold and they called themselves the "Darkholders" for the first time.; ===Modern Age===; ====Dracula's leadership====; Led by Dracula, they sent out the Eye Killers so that they could help Dracula retrieve the Darkhold.<!--; ...; ====DeGuzman's leadership====; A group of Darkholders, led by Randolph DeGuzman, secured a temporary alliance with Lilith the Mother of All Demons, despite the opposition of the other leaders of the cult (Lilith herself kept an open perspective on the use of the cult for her own purposes).; Under Lilith's instructions, they attacked Victoria Montesi, who was a reluctant heir to the Montesi family's responsibility of safeguarding the Darkhold and seen by Lilith as a threat to it. As the assassins failed to kill Montesi, they were given to Lilith, who had the Lilin Doc reshape them to be faster and stronger. Their next attack on the "Darkhold Redeemers" (joined by John Blaze and the Ghost Rider (Danny Ketch)) was repelled as well.<!--; Meanwhile, the Darkhold Dwarf appeared in various locations, offering "guidance" to people receiving pages of the Darkhold by mail. -->; After Lilith's defeat, the Darkholders sent hitmen to Washington, D.C. to kill the Darkhold Redeemers (somehow knowing that they were going to be there).<!--; ... apparently decimated in Darkhold: Pages from the Book of Sins ...Darkhold: Pages from the Book of Sins Vol 1 3; ====Atlantis Rising====; Morgan Le Fay "summoned Darkholders" ... -->; ====The Red Slayer====; The Darkholders later took an interest in Carnage. Barry Gleason orchestrated Cletus Kasady's meeting with them. It was later revealed that he was planned to be a sacrifice to awaken Chthon, based on the prophecy in the Darkhold that stated "When the Red Slayer spills blood on sacred stone, he who sleeps shall wake and what walked will walk once again."<!--; ... -->; Union Jack (Joseph Chapman), along with Captain America (Steve Rogers) there with S.H.I.E.L.D. assisting the British government, battled countless cultists of the Cult of the Darkhold on the seacoast of the Scottish Highlands.<!--; ====Lord Hood====; ...; ====Queen Lilith====; ... -->

+History:
+===Dark Reign===; During the final stand against the Skrull invasion of Earth, the unscrupulous Norman Osborn, the unscrupulous director of the Thunderbolts who used to be the villain Green Goblin, killed the Skrull Queen. Using his technology from OsCorp, Osborn was not affected by the corruption of Iron Man's Starktech. Following the extraterrestrial crisis, S.H.I.E.L.D. was decommissioned and replaced by H.A.M.M.E.R., with Osborn as its head in charge of the Initiative, the institution that regulated the activities of the registered super-hero community all over the country. A dark reign descended upon Earth's Mightiest Heroes, especially the Avengers as Osborn formed a Cabal, in which different influential individuals joined forces resources to accomplish their own agendas in the new world order.; The Initiative's most powerful unit was the government-sponsored Avengers once led by Tony Stark, the invincible Iron Man. As Osborn replaced Stark in his position as head of security, Maria Hill, the ex-director of S.H.I.E.L.D. had her position filled by Victoria Hand, a former business affairs operative who publicly criticized her employers' modus operandi. The former Thunderbolts Bullseye, Moonstone, and Venom were promoted to Avengers due to their loyalty to Osborn during the final battle against the Skrulls, despite their utter lack of morality. To hide their criminal past and gain public legitimacy, they took up onthe mantles of classic avengers: Bullseye became Hawkeye, Moonstone was revamped as Ms. Marvel, and Venom was transformed into Spider-Man. Some of the Avengers also aligned themselves with Osborn, namely the God of War Ares, who regarded Osborn as a competent warrior, and the insane Sentry, who stayed due to offers of help for his mental issues. To round up the team, Osborn recruited the deceitful and murderous mutant Daken, who adopted the identity of his father, Wolverine, and the alien Kree invader Noh-Varr, who became the new Captain Marvel. Osborn himself completed the lineup as the Iron Patriot, evoking the symbolism of both Iron Man and Captain America.; Osborn led his Avengers to their first mission when Doctor Doom, a member of his Cabal was violently attacked by the sorceress Morgan Le Fay in Latveria. The situation was seemingly solved immediately when the Sentry decapitated Morgan. However, as a time traveler, she re-emerged and tortured the Avengers with her dark arts and horde of demons, by corrupting Venom and petrifying Ares. As the Avengers fell, Osborn had Doctor Doom use his time-machine to return in time and find Morgan at her medieval castle. Doctor Doom banished Morgan to the distant past. The Avengers licked their wounds and left Latveria. Back to Avengers Tower, the Sentry was seen alive, having mysteriously reconstituted himself, which sparked fear in Osborn. In the aftermath of the fight, the original Hawkeye and fugitive Avenger, Clint Barton, went to live television and accused Osborn of being an immoral and manipulative criminal. Osborn retaliated by playing victim with a convincing discourse. Simultaneously, Moonstone used her influence to destabilize the Avengers, by informing Noh-Varr the true nature of most of the psychopaths in the team. Horrified with the revelation, Noh-Varr abandoned the team. Osborn had the Avengers track Noh-Varr, but he was able to evade capture after making contact with the Kree Supreme Intelligence and acquire a pair of Nega-Bands.; ===Utopia===; San Francisco was attacked by Atlantean terrorist dissidents. The ruler of the broken kingdom of Atlantis, Namor, was also a member of Osborn's Cabal. Osborn ordered Namor to disown the assailants, but Namor refused, raising tensions in their secret group. Instead, Osborn dispatched the Sentry, who quickly finished the terrorists. A parallel crisis in San Francisco involved mutantkind, who lived in the city as a sanctuary. The emergence of Proposition X led to a lot of riots characterized by the X-Men led by Cyclops fighting the Humanity Now! coalition. Seeing it as an opportunity to control the mutant population, Osborn not only dispatched his Avengers to intervene, but also formed his own X-Men, led by another agent of his Cabal, Emma Frost. The membership of the team included Daken, Namor, and others.; Osborn's Avengers were not amicable towards his X-Men, with Osborn constantly keeping the Avengers out of action. However, Frost revealed herself to be a traitor, having Namor at her side. Their true allegiances laid with mutantkind in a plan to fend Osborn off and protect the X-Men from his sphere of influence. Osborn unleashed his immoral Avengers on Utopia, the island-nation Cyclops had founded out of the government's jurisdiction. Heavily outnumbered, the Avengers were not able to defeat the mutants, while Frost psychically tormented the Sentry to keep him away of the battle. Having no alternative, Osborn admitted defeat and left the battle, but in a mediatic show he argued he successfully dealt with the mutant problem in American soil.; ===Inner Goblins===; The hight levels of stress Osborn faced afflicted his mental health as he gradually descended into madness. At some point, he was contacted by a high-ranking member of the government who wished the Avengers to locate his missing daughter. Hand traced her to a small town called Dinosaur, where many people had gone missing lately. In their investigation, Osborn ordered his master weapon, the Sentry to go first, as usual. The mission was shown to be a major crisis almost immediately when the Sentry immediately exploded. Upon arrival, the Avengers were trapped in different fabricated scenarios by the Molecule Man. The Molecule Man tortured the Avengers, especially exploring the fragilities Osborn and the Sentry had. Victoria Hand then landed on Dinosaur by herself and surrendered. As she attempted to reason with the Molecule Man, the Sentry confronted him realizing he had similar capacities of altering the physical world. H.A.M.M.E.R. brutally attacked the Molecule Man, who was ultimately disintegrated by the Sentry. Upon return, Osborn's insanity escalated. In secrecy, his instability was also perpetrated by his supposed ally in the Cabal, the God of Mischief Loki.; Upon returning to New York, the Sentry's wife Lindy shot him with one of Noh-Varr's guns in an attempt to kill him. She appeared to have succeeded and revealed the truth of the Sentry's origins: he was an addict who had stumbled upon a formula that granted him his enormous powers while looking for drugs. The Sentry simply rose back to life however, this time with the Void in control. In a moment of clarity, the Sentry attempted to kill himself by flying into the Sun, but failed. Back to New York, the Void unleashed his enormous powers until Osborn managed to talk him down. As a solution to this problem, Osborn ordered Bullseye to murder Lindy in order to make the Sentry more reliant on and obedient. Another rupture in the Cabal involved Doctor Doom, who upon disagreeing with Osborn launched an attack against Avengers Tower. The building was evacuated as the Sentry took care of the crisis. Bullseye took the opportunity to assassinate his wife, claiming she had committed suicide. The Sentry underwent breakdown, becoming the ultimate weapon Osborn wished him to be.; ===Siege===; Loki's ultimate move in his machinations involving Osborn was to convince him about the danger of having the magical realm of Asgard on Earth. He claimed that this was a threat to Osborn's influence and suggested that a disaster should be crafted to justify a siege to the golden city. Together, Loki and Osborn managed to trick Volstagg of the Warriors Three into fighting the U-Foes in a stadium full of people, who became casualties. This gave Osborn reason to move against Asgard, mobilizing all of the forces under his command such as the Avengers, H.A.M.M.E.R., the Thunderbolts, the Initiative, and the Hood's Gang. He also had Ares believe that Loki had taken over Asgard in order to draw up battle plans for the invasion. The mighty Thor defended his home, but was put down by the Avengers. Amidst battle, Ares realized Asgard did not posit a threat and rebelled against Osborn. However, he was immediately murdered by the Sentry under Osborn's orders.; Deciding Osborn should be stopped, Steve Rogers, the original Captain America, reassembled the Avengers to join the war, being backed by other parties, such as Maria Hill, Nick Fury's Secret Warriors the Young Avengers, and Tony Stark. After Osborn was taken down by the heroes, he ordered the Sentry to destroy Asgard. The Void, having taken control without Osborn's knowledge, did this, leaving nothing but rubble. The Void proved to be an uncontrollable force. In regret, Loki realized that he had gone too far and used the Norn Stones to empower the heroes fighting on the side of Asgard. Noticing the trickery, the Void killed Loki to reverse the process. As a last resource, Tony Stark managed to take control of the H.A.M.M.E.R. Helicarrier to drop it on the Void, causing the Sentry to momentarily regain control. With the Void on the verge of returning, the Sentry insisted on being killed to contain the threat, which Thor did by striking him with a powerful bolt of lightning. Thor cast what remained of the Sentry into the Sun. However, due to Sentry's powers, he would not remain dead. In the aftermath of the siege, Osborn and his Avengers were mostly arrested.; ===The New Dark Avengers===; When Norman Osborn was broken out of prison and took control of a new H.A.M.M.E.R., with HYDRA, A.I.M. and the Hand following him, he assembled a new team of Dark Avengers formed by Ai Apaec as Spider-Man, Trickshot as Hawkeye, Toxic Doxie as Scarlet Witch, Superia as Ms. Marvel, Gorgon as Wolverine and Skaar.; His new team made their first public appearance when Victoria Hand advised them about a situation at Miami, while she delayed the New Avengers, who arrived later, when the Dark Avengers already established control. The New Avengers started fighting Osborn's team until they saw they weren't prepared for it, Doctor Strange teleported the team to a rooftop, but then Ragnarok appeared. As Ragnarok nearly destroyed the team with a mighty strike from his hammer, he injured Wolverine and overpowered Luke Cage then tried to kill Spider-Man. Both Luke Cage and Wolverine managed to almost destroy Ragnarok, who they left to Osborn after leaving the scene.; When NYPD S.W.A.T. seized Avengers Mansion under Osborn's command, Cage's team became fugitives and hid in Victoria Hand's apartment. When the team was about to hunt the New Avengers, Skaar betrayed and attacked them.; ===Thunderbolts===; When the Thunderbolts went missing in time, the Dark Avengers were recruited as their replacements. Luke Cage volunteered to be their supervisor with Skaar acting as Luke's muscle on the inside. The Dark Avengers were sent the Sharzhad on their first mission. They quickly came into contact with the forces of Dagan Shah in the form of monsters. They defeated them, displaying great team work; however it became clear that the Dark Avengers had an agenda of their own after taking off and leaving Skaar and Cage behind. They tracked down Wender and invaded Shah's palace in order to reach the source of his power; a Rigellian subspace pocket. After bringing Wender here he began to channel all of the energy present.; ===The Dark Earth===; After the end of their involvement with the Thunderbolts, Toxic Doxie, Ragnarok, Trickshot, Ai Apaec and Moonstone were loaded onto a transport ship, escorted by John Walker and Skaar. When an explosion hit their ship, Man-Thing panicked and opened a wormhole. They found themselves stranded in an alternate Earth. In this world, all the major superheroes had become warlords of their factions, fighting over New York City.; Toxic Doxie, Ragnarok, Trickshot, Ai Apaec, and Walker were captured by Iron Man's forces. Doxie broke free, taking control of Pym, who worked for Iron Man, and the lab, using it to experiment on her teammates. Meanwhile, Moonstone and Skaar were captured by Doctor Strange, who used magic to enslave them. Doxie used her bio-engineering skills to restore Walker's lost limbs with the Venom symbiote, shrunk Ai Apaec to miniature size, and performed heavy surgery in Ragnarok's brain.; The Dark Avengers went to kill Strange, hoping to free Skaar and Moonstone. After fighting Thing's forces on behalf of Strange, Moonstone was able to sneak away back to the lab, finding Ragnarok awakening. Iron Man attacked them, but the awakened Ragnarok was able to defeat him, although Stark's consciousness escaped to another suit. Pym was killed in the conflict. After the surgery, Ragnarok was finally aware of his status as a clone cyborg. Moonstone brought him the Mjolnir of the Dark Earth's Thor, and Ragnarok was able to wield it.; Skaar, meanwhile, learned from Reed Richards and a captured A.I.M. agent that A.I.M. was behind the Dark Earth, having twisted reality with temporal manipulation, and this pocket dimension was about to collapse due to to the Dark Avengers' presence. Ai Apaec was able to kill Strange by poisoning him. Moonstone and Skaar were freed, and the united Dark Avengers went after A.I.M. They escaped the pocket dimension as it collapsed, returning to New York proper. Skaar abandoned them, and Toxic Doxie stepped on a still-shrunken Ai Apaec. U.S. Agent appeared to be leading them, but Doxie was in fact controlling his mind.; The team would seemingly be disbanded, considering their members would later appear working on their own, or retired from superheroics.

+Reality: Earth-616

+History:
+The organization of the Dark Sisterhood began sometime in the 18th or 19th century. Originally, the Sisterhood came from women born with unusual powers banding together for protection. Called witches, these women initially adopted the name "The Dark Sisterhood" in defiance of their persecutors. Unbeknownst to them originally, the organization's members were all descended from the mutant known as the Dark Mother. In the early 18th century, the Dark Mother had seven children (all girls) who scattered throughout the United States. Each of these girls married and had children of their own, most of which were girls.; These descendants, in turn, got married and raised their own families, and so on through several generations. Upon realizing their heritage, the Dark Sisterhood began recruiting exclusively from the Dark Mother's descendants. When they first banded together, the Sisters sought power to save themselves from the death and torture they were submitted to by their fellow humans. But over time, their goals became twisted. They sought not just to be equal, but to rule, to replace the corrupt system they were living in with their own. In the modern-day, The Sisterhood controls huge crime cartels. It commands politicians, ambitious generals, and renegade police officers. Their ultimate goal is global domination.; The Dark Sisterhood's modus operandi whenever they established themselves in a new city was to pick an organization to bring into submission in order to make an example for the rest. This demonstration of power was to keep others in line. Typically, this punishment was meted out to any crime organization that tried to oppose the Dark Sisterhood. The Dark Sisterhood would not only extinguish the organization, but also killed off all of its members' wives, husbands, children, lovers, companions, and live-in relatives. After this massacring, they would send the last surviving member of the crime group to the bosses and leaders of the major mobs and gangs in that city, to let them know what happened and what would be the consequences of cheating the Dark Sisterhood. Throughout the world, there were criminal cartels under the Sisterhood's control, and at one point the Sisterhood was controlling half of all criminal activity in the United states.; The members of the Dark Sisterhood used their psychic abilities to manipulate others to commit their crimes, though when necessary they would do carry out the work themselves (e.g. assassination, terrorism, or using sex to influence a target). The Dark Sisterhood manipulated figures throughout society, including corporate CEOs, heads of state, generals, politicians, labor union representatives, and police officers. In the Dark Sisterhood, there was no forgiveness, even for their own members. The punishment for failure was death. Most members knew that the organization's ultimate stated goal was to take over the world. Only the highest tier knew the truth, that the Dark Mother's goal was to establish a global matriarchy. A world ruled by women, with the men, who in their view had poisoned the world, being their slaves.; After ten generations, the Dark Mother had almost 30,000 descendants. At the time of their confrontation with Cable, the Dark Sisterhood itself had over 3,000 members. As the Dark Mother saw Cable as an existential threat, the Dark Sisterhood went to war against him. They attempted to kill him twice, without success. The first time 20 of them attacked one of his safe houses, where they fought him and lost, sustaining casualties. The second time they attacked what they believed to be his new safe house which was a trap, that wiped the memories of a 100 of them. In the meantime, they isolated him from his allies and set him up in the media and government, making it appear as if he was an out of control mutant terrorist.; Cable, in turn, began to cripple many of their operations by causing the sisters in charge of those operations to lose their memory. He then prevented the Dark Sisterhood from taking over the country, when they arranged several assassinations so one of the sisters (the Secretary of Defense) could become President of the United States. Eventually, Cable was able to provided to ally G.W. Bridge, with the information he needed to convince Henry Gyrich of the conspiracy. Government agents arrested operatives of the Dark Sisterhood within the government and law enforcement, and those men in government who were working for the Sisterhood.; Thousands of government soldiers with air support attacked the headquarters of Xylon Corporation, the Dark Sisterhood's business front and the Dark Mother's base which was defended by 100s of Sisters. Cable and Rachel Summers in turn headed for the Dark Mother. They fought their way through and defeated the Dark Mother, who ended up in a catatonic state. The Dark Sisterhood later regrouped but they lost the Dark Mother who was assassinated by the Marauders on orders of Mr. Sinister who was eliminating those with precognitive abilities.

+History:
+===Onslaught===; An interloper from a doomed reality ruled by Apocalypse, the immoral and unscrupulous scientist McCoy lived in seclusion for years, being a version of the Beast, a member of the X-Men. By anticipating his enemies, namely the Sugar Man and Mister Sinister, could find him, he decided to have a contingency plan. As such, he turned his attention to Havok, the alternate version of his former ally Prelate Summers. McCoy's personal assassin, Fatale, was tasked with retrieving Havok from X-Factor for mental reconditioning, but failed. He then revived the mercenary Random to execute the mission. This time, Fatale and Random managed to abduct Havok.; Simultaneously, McCoy concluded his best chances for survival was replacing his doppelgänger within the X-Men as the Beast. Despite initial success, he was uncovered by Onslaught, a dark persona manifested by the X-Men's founder and mentor Professor Xavier. By attacking the X-Men, Onslaught recruited McCoy to his mission of bringing chaos upon the world and demanded him followers. McCoy offered his lackeys as pawns for Onslaught, the Dark Descendants, including a brainwashed Havok, who had assumed Prelate Summers' personality. The Dark Descendants were ordered to hack an army of Sentinels, clashing with X-Factor in the process. Random abandoned McCoy and helped X-Factor in the conflict. On the other hand, Onslaught's pet, Post, joined the Dark Descendants. McCoy subdued the leader of X-Factor, Forge, offering a truce with convict members Mystique and Sabretooth to join him in exchange of their freedom. Sabretooth accepted the offer and prepared to murder Forge, but a suspicious Mystique rejected the offer, shooting Sabretooth, saving Forge, and forcing McCoy to retreat. As the Beast was found and rescued by X-Factor, McCoy and Fatale were imprisoned. Havok broke free from the brainwashing, but was psychologically changed by the process and chose not to return to X-Factor.; ===Brotherhood===; After shaking off his conditioning, Havok decided to own his new villainous image. He founded a Brotherhood of Mutants to represent an alternative approach to Xavier's dream, which he regarded as broken. With the telepathic former member of Gene Nation, Ever, Havok faked an assassination attempt on Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson. This put him into conflict with the X-Men, especially his brother, Cyclops. The Brotherhood started a campaign to recruit new members as a proactive mutant team against humanity. They approached Jamie Madrox, liberating him from a government facility, but he declined. Havok seized control over McCoy's former hideout within the Morlock Tunnels. Tormented and in need of resources, Havok broke McCoy and Fatale free from incarceration to recruit them into his Brotherhood. Once again, Havok insisted for Madrox to join him with no success. This alarmed X-Factor about his activities.; McCoy had knowledge about another being from his reality, the extremely powerful Nate Grey, convincing Havok to enlist him into the Brotherhood. On Muir Island, Havok and Fatale approached Nate Grey. He initially could not trust the Brotherhood as they joined forces to liberate Aurora from captivity in Department H enforced by Operation Zero Tolerance. Havok offered a method for Nate Grey to keep his unlimited powers in check. In shock, however, he learned about their association with McCoy, the Dark Beast. This caused Nate Grey to vehemently reject the offer for membership since they wished to weaponize the toxic agent Coldsnap-9 against humanity. Not accepting McCoy as a necessary evil, Grey attempted to remove Aurora from the Brotherhood's hold, but chose not to due to her broken mind. He agreed to depart peacefully, understanding the Brotherhood had legitimacy, but destroyed their storage to eliminate Coldsnap-9. The Brotherhood chose to leave Nate Grey for dead as he was intoxicated by the chemicals.; Havok had Fatale abduct X-Factor, after happening upon his former contractor Val Cooper, after they were brutally maimed by Sabretooth. His former teammates received medical care in the Morlock Tunnels. Upon recovery, he had a discussion with them, especially Polaris and Forge, during which he shared his motivations and methods. Simultaneously, in secrecy, Havok and Ever, who also had been a guinea pig for McCoy, investigated the immoral scientists' activities. They concluded he had to be stopped at any costs. Havok offered an alliance with Gene Nation to protect them from Humanity's Last Stand. This brought him into an ideological debate with the X-Men, as he faced the option of executing the anti-mutant agents. Dark Beast executed them regardless. Having the respect of Gene Nation, the Brotherhood left. Ultimately, Havok decided to put an end to the layers of deception cast by the Brotherhood activities. He openly confronted Dark Beast. He released Aurora from captivity during the battle, as Fatale sided with her former contractor. Havok planned to destroy McCoy's laboratory and X-Factor member Shard helped him, but Mystique and Shard's former teammates from X.U.E. attacked them. Ever intervened, revealing a human-infecting strain of the Legacy Virus would be released with the destruction of the laboratory. They joined forces against McCoy, instead. Fatale and Random were knocked out, but the Dark Beast escaped. In the end, the Brotherhood was over.

+A group of superhumans gathered by the mysterious woman named Kang in order to retrieve the Infinity Gems, apparently to use it in order to prevent the destruction of the universe.; She first freed Bruce Banner, who proceeded to destroy the Triskelion and steal five Infinity Gems from S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. He battled the Ultimates while Kang released Reed Richards, the Maker, with whom she apparently had planned their escape. Quicksilver retrieved one of the gems and gave it to Richards, who showed himself to the Ultimates.; The heroes barely managed to escape, but Captain America asked to be left behind in order to battle Richards, although he was defeated. Kang showed up and proclaimed they still had two more gems to find.; Using numerous H.E.R.B.I.E. Trons, Reed forced global powers to negotiate peace, undid global patents and copyright standards (making any scientific progress to the public domain), liberated all Stark, Roxxon, Hammer and Osborn technology, removed financial blockage by attacking the World Bank headquarters, distributed Utopia's sentient seed, and deployed hybrid zero emission energy technology.; The seventh gem was revealed to be located in Tony Stark's brain, who was kidnapped by Quicksilver. The Maker performed a surgery on Stark's brain while his H.E.R.B.I.E. Trons were trying to reach the Earth's core in order to acquire the final gem. Richards finally got the last gem, and left Tony Stark to die.; Stark's consciousness was revealed to have survived electronically, and he rescued the Ultimates from the Negative Zone after infiltrating Reed's network. Reed used a brain-washed Human Torch to retrieve the final gem, which was used by Kang to arrive to the aid of Richards when he was being outnumbered by the Ultimates.; During a furious battle, Iron Man managed to get the Gems. But before any of the Dark Ultimates could retrieve it, an immense flux of energy echoed through time and space. Kang alerted that it was too late to prevent what she came to stop and vanished, stating she had to go back further in time, abandoning Reed, who was imprisoned in The Cube.

+Weapons: The Darkholders tended to use magic as weapons
+Transportation: Certain members of the Darkholders, including Bane and Kriegslieber, moved using Teleportation spells
+Notes: One of the divergences between Earth-74924 and Earth-616 is that, in Earth-74924, the Darkholders stole the Dragon's Eye before the Black Fox could. In Earth-616, as seen in Amazing Spider-Man #349, the Fox stole the Eye.
+History:
+The Darkholders were an evil cult active in several Central European countries. Their ultimate goal was the resurrection of their god, Chthon, so that he could take over the world. To that end, they stole a mystical item known as Dragon's Eye from a museum at Monaco (An independent thief known as Black Fox had the same item in his sights, but failed to enact his heist before the Darkholders did so.; Pretending to be a Latverian non-violent organization, the Darkholders recruited Wolfgang Kriegslieber, an ex-Nazi scientist developing pacifying robots for the Latverian government of Doctor Doom. The Darkholders explained Kriegslieber that Doom intended to use the new robot, Doomsman III, for agressive purposes. In exchange for his undercover collaboration, the Darkholders promised to protect Kriegslieber and also to find his family, that had been captured by the Nazis during World War II.; The Darkholders wanted for Chthon to possess the powerful Doomsman. To do so, the Doomsman was to be powered by the Dragon's Eye. They convinced Kriegslieber to modify the Doomsman's designs to allow this, explaining that they had used the Dragon's Eye to end both World Wars - which was likely a lie. The Darkholders also claimed that they would use the Doomsman to stop wars through the planet, never telling Kriegslieber that Chthon would control the robot to wreak havoc at will.; At the same time, the Darkholders tried proselitizying through several countries like Transia and Symkaria, finding little popular support - The press reported that the citizens were enraged at the Darkholder's worlds, apparently leading to violence against them and further arrests.; Doctor Doom discovered that one of his scientists was working for the Darkholders and suspected that it was Kriesglieber. He nonetheless continued with his plans to build and activate the Doomsman in a secret underground base in the United States of America - Doom intended to test the loyalty of Kriegslieber, the resources of the Darkholders and the capabilities of the Doomsman at the same time.; When Kriesglieber finished the robot, Darkholder high-ranking member Bane travelled to the States to pick up both the scientist and his creation. A team of superheroes investigating Doom's illegal activities clashed with Bane at the gates of Doom's lair. Doom was secretly monitoring the situation, knowing that he could stun Bane should he interfered with his plans which, at that point, included the heroes discovering the base.; As the heroes researched Kriesglieber's lair, they confronted a robot impersonating Doom. Kriesglieber, misunderstanding the situation, panicked and teleported away with the robot. The Doombot blamed the heroes and explained that the Darkholders would probably unleash the robot in Latveria's capital, Doomstadt. This allowed for Doom to recruit the heroes in an effort to stop the Doomsman. Doom still had one more ace: He could probably activate the Doomsman's self-destruct mechanism should the situation go wild.; The Darkholders indeed took the Doomsman to Latveria to attack Doomstadt. Following their scheme, they used the Dragon's Eye to power the machine with mystical energies. The robot attacked Doomstadt, finding the opposition of Doom's robots and the superheroes. The superheroes prevailed and the Doomsman was stopped. Kriesglieber, seeing the Pacifist Society's true colors, defected and escaped.; The Darkholders wanted to get revenge on the heroes and tried a number of schemes against them, including one where they intended to discover their secret identities to black mail them.; Doom analyzed the disabled Doomsman's memory and discovered one of the Darkholder's lairs. He then persuaded the heroes to track Kriesglieber to that point. Their effort clashed with those of Silver Sable, a Symkarian Nazi-hunter who was pursuing Kriesglieber for his other past crimes. The Darkholders were also after Kriesglieber at this point and complicated the encounter even more.

+History:
+The Dark Guardians were brought together by Starfox after the last will of his dead brother Thanos revealed that his resurrection would happen in the body of another. The Dark Guardians first mission was to find Gamora and kill her in hopes that she was the person it would happen to. To find her, they decided to locate Gamora's ex-lover Nova, who could know where she was.; The Dark Guardians caught up to him and managed to make him crash-land on the planet Elynor-143. They cut off his connection to the Nova Corps and tried to convince him that it would be in his best interest to turn over Gamora, but Nova said he'd already picked a side and flew off at top speed so the Guardians couldn't catch him. Nebula chimed in that they would be able to track him since he was beaten, confused, and bleeding out. With his connection cut off and being to far away from them, the only logical place for him to go was to Gamora.; They managed to find Nova on board Peter Quill's ship and, coincidentally, Gamora was also aboard. Gladiator handed the Guardians of the Galaxy an ultimatum: hand over Gamora or they would blow them out of the sky. As they refused to hand her over, Gladiator fired an optic blast at The Ryder knocking it off course. They were forced to land with Beta Ray Bill setting it down on an unnamed planet. Both teams engaged in a battle as Gamora joined the fray by blasting her sister Nebula. Gladiator again shot his eye beams towards Gamora, knocking her out and giving Nebula the chance to end her life once and for all. However, when she took the shot, Quill jumped in front of her, taking the hit instead. The Dark Guardians defeated the group as Quill laid there apparently dead as Gamora held him, though Quill would survive thanks to sturdy body armor.; The Dark Guardians took Gamora and brought her aboard the Lilandra IV, where she briefly met Starfox before he ordered Gladiator to kill her. Gamora's execution was interrupted by the arrival of the Asgardian death goddess Hela who was planning to resurrect Thanos. She quickly took out Gladiator and the Rider. The Black Order arrived shortly after to make sure the remaining Dark Guardians didn't interfere. Wraith didn't put up a fight because he already received what he wanted for helping the Dark Guardians: info on the dark god Knull. Hela then revealed that Starfox was Thanos' vessel of resurrection, not Gamora, and Thanos' consciousness took over Starfox's mind shortly after. When the Guardians of the Galaxy finally arrived to rescue Gamora, they found her surrounded by the unconscious remaining members of the Dark Guardians.; The remaining Dark Guardians agreed to join forces with the Guardians in order stop Thanos' resurrection. Using Lockjaw's teleportation ability, the Guardians and Dark Guardians stormed Knowhere and fought off the Black Order and a horde of Outriders. In order to stop Thanos' resurrection, Gamora killed Starfox, but this only caused Thanos to be brought back with a broken mind. When Hela fired a missile than would generate a black hole, Beta Ray Bill knocked it away with Stormbreaker, causing it to hit Thanos. The black hole generated then sucked up Knowhere, Thanos, Hela, and the surviving Ouriders while the Guardians and Dark Guardians escaped via Lockjaw.

+Notes: Based on the solicit text for Fantastic Four Vol 6 23, the Dark Harvest was originally going to be called the Celestial Assassins.
+History:
+Dark Harvest was a secret sect comprised of the elite Priests of Pama, who were empowered with plant-based abilities by the Cotati. In the wake of the Cotati's invasion of Earth, the Priests of Pama detected the arrival on the planet of Jo-Venn and N'Kalla, two child soldiers of the Kree and the Skrulls, respectively, who were imbued with the chronicles of each side of the Kree/Skrull War. At the time, the two kids were also under the protection of Franklin and Valeria Richards of the Fantastic Four.; The Dark Harvest were assembled to track down Jo-Venn and N'Kalla, and they found them at the front steps of the 4 Yancy Street, where they combated three allies of the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Sky before capturing Jo-Venn. Franklin and Valeria managed to drive them away after using image inducers to impersonate Ghost Rider and the Hulk.; The Dark Harvest then raided an Alchemax facility to steal a neutronic wavefront inducer. With it, they built an Omni-Wave Projector and forced Jo-Venn to beam memories of his people's conflict with the Skrulls into the mind of every Kree. N'Kalla tracked down Jo-Venn and attempted to free him, but was captured and paired with him to also inflict every Skrull with a similar psychic intrusion. The resulting mental attack awakened the buried enmity between the Kree and the Skrull, risking to break apart their Alliance during their war against the Cotati. Franklin, Valeria, Spider-Man and Wolverine tracked down N'Kalla in turn and confronted the Dark Harvest. Valeria and Franklin managed to make Jo-Venn and N'Kalla focus on their shared bond, changing the Omni-Wave Projector's beam into one which fueled the Alliance's bond. As soon as he noticed the Dark Harvest's failure, Lord Quoi of the Cotati turned their plant powers against them, turning them into trees.

+History:
+When Ted Sallis tried to summon the ruler of Limbo in order to confront Belasco about his role in the origin of the Man-Thing, he instead summoned Magik, the current ruler of Limbo. She explained that she could free him from the curse of the Man-Thing, but that it would leave the beast mindless and possibly threaten the entire world. Not willing to unleash that, Magik summoned the Dark Riders to help Ted, as the Man-Thing, fight against Harrower to regain his power and his home. The Riders successfully staved off the creatures that Harrower summoned to fight them, and watched as she ultimately was lost in the Nexus of All Realities. What became of the team afterwards is unknown. At some point in time, they disbanded, but reunited for one last mission to get Nature Girl and stop the rampage she caused. Their mission was abruptly stopped when they found Curse dead and couldn't find their target.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Limbo
+History:
+The Dark Consortium was a cabal of netherbeings from Limbo who patronized the demon Belasco. He acted as their middleman as they sought to defile the Earth with a "soul poison" capable of hollowing a soul until its host burned away. Their objective was to use the soul poison to claim assets such as land, resources and influence once it cleared away their former stewards.; The Dark Consortium first did business with Roxxon and A.I.M., sponsoring their takeover of Stark Unlimited so that the resulting merger could provide the scale necessary for the import of their product. To this end, they brought Justine Hammer back to life, and provided her with a magic virus that she used to compromise Tony Stark's entire armory.; After the Stark Unlimited Board of Directors voted in favor of the merger, Belasco made his involvement known, with the Dark Consortium observing behind the scenes. Stark convinced them that Roxxon and A.I.M. were unreliable business partners to sustain the scale of their endeavor, prompting the entities to withdraw their sponsorship and demand the souls of the Board of Directors in reparation. Stark saved the board by negotiating their safety in exchange for the powerful mysterium that Hammer had previously stolen from him for her Iron Monger Armor, while the board had to annul the merger and resign in return.; During Doctor Doom's temporary conquest of the Earth, the young sorcerer and ally of Iron Man, Vishte Taru, sought Belasco for power. He proposed to make himself king of Latveria to meet the Dark Consortium's need of scale, although his intent was to double-cross and fend them off once he usurped Doom's power for himself. After Vishte used the soul poison to orchestrate a terrorist attack that crippled the Latverian Army and clad himself in the Iron Monger Armor, Belasco revealed himself once again, teleporting Visthe, Iron Man and his allies to Limbo. Iron Man fought Taru across Limbo and defeated him. Further impressed by Iron Man, the Dark Consortium ordered Belasco to keep Vishte prisoner so they could use him as leverage to force Iron Man to do business with them in the future.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Atlantis
+Equipment: Chthon Scrolls
+Notes: The "first Darkholders" were gradually introduced within Marvel Comics, with several additions and retcons:; Bizarre Adventures Vol 1 33 (December, 1982) introduced Varnae but did not reveal his origin nor mention the Darkholders.; In Doctor Strange Vol 2 61 (October, 1983), in which the "first Darkholders" (Pre-Cataclysmic Atlantean mystics who had gathered Chthon's loose indestructible parchments and scrolls together, first into the Chthon Scrolls and then into the book later known as the Darkhold) first appeared, they created vampires by using the Darkhold to create a spell to ressurrect their fallen enemies from the dead and use them as both soldiers and servants, and that these vampires eventually turned against the Darkholders.; "The Book of the Vishanti: The Curse of the Darkhold Part III - Dawn of Blood" (Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme Vol 1 11; Conan the Barbarian Vol 1 245 (June, 1991) reprised this tale while mentioning the fact that Varnae had turned his fellow sorcerers into vampires.; By the time of the release of Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z Vol 1 12 (March, 2010), other early vampires, including Verdelet, Lamia, Boy, Maracen, and Saracen, were mentioned as having been turned and arising alongside Varnae (and thus seemingly being Darkholders themselves) instead of only Varnae as depicted in Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme #11 and Conan the Barbarian #245. Vampires: The Marvel Undead Vol 1 1 (December, 2011) added Nosferatu to the list.
+History:
+===Origin===; The "first Darkholders" were a group of sorcerers in Pre-Cataclysmic Atlantis, former followers of the sorcerer Thulsa Doom.; The Darkholders also formed a cult that worshiped the Elder God-turned-demon Chthon.; The name "Darkholders" came later, as the Chthon Scrolls became known as the Darkhold. The original name of the group, if any, remains unrevealed.; ===War with Kull===; King Kull of Valusia led a war against wizards and caused the death of Thulsa Doom.; Following Doom's death, Varnae and other followers of Doom obtained the Chthon Scrolls, intending to use them and turn some among them into supernatural creatures in order to destroy Kull. Mortally wounded by Kull, Varnae was the first volunteer, becoming the first vampire of all. Others went through the same process, including Lamia, Verdelet, Nosferatu and, allegedly, Boy, Maracen, and Saracen. Lilith the Mother of All Demons, who resided in Atlantis at that time, may have also participated in Varnae's creation.; ===The First Vampires===; Three days and three nights after the spells had been cast, the sorcerors arose as vampires. One of them attempted to command Varnae, who then consumed him for his arrogance before he and the other vampires turned on their former fellow sorcerers, who were then killed and turned into vampires themselves.; The turned sorcerers worshiped Varnae as their Lord, and he reveled in their worship.; ===Legacy===; Surviving "Darkholders" relocated the loose parchments and scrolls before Atlantis sank in the Great Cataclysm.; The vampires were alternatively mentioned to have fled Atlantis either before the Great Cataclysm, after it, or while it was happening.; Many of the first vampires, contemporaries of Varnae, such as Lamia and Verdelet, became known as the Ancient.; "Darkholders", or groups of "Darkholders", returned several times since then all the way up to the Modern Age.

+History:
+The Death-Throws were the brainchild of Charles Last, the Ringleader, a criminal juggler. When he met brothers and jugglers Elton and Alvin Healey, he recruited both of them for a new gang of costumed criminals: The Death-Throws, under the leadership of Last, would be at the same time costumed mercenaries and jugglers. They would take advantage of their juggling skills and use throwing weapons. Elton adopted the name of Oddball due to his looney nature, and his tenpin-throwing brother would be known as the Tenpin. The fourth member of the team was Knicknack, recruited under undisclosed circumstances.; Although the Death-Throws valued teamwork more than other villain groups, Oddball suddenly broke up with the Death-Throws for unknown reasons. Tenpin found him after a while, and took him back to the Death-Throws. While solo, Oddball had began to work with another criminal juggler, Bombshell, and had convinced her to join the Death-Throws.; Oddball's previous boss, Crossfire, contacted the Death-Throws from jail. He wanted the jugglers to release him, and agreed to pay them when he was freed. The Ringleader accepted the deal, and the other Death-Throws worked together to free Crossfire. However, once they had taken Crossfire to their own HQ, they discovered that Crossfire was broke! His assets had been impounded and he had lost any useful link with Cross Technologies. The Death-Throws decided to use Crossfire as a bait to attract Hawkeye and Captain America to a trap, but those two Avengers defeated all of the Death-Throws. Tenpin and his partners went to jail.; Although Oddball was killed in Madripoor, and Bombshell temporarily left the team, the Death-Throws continued with their usual crime contracts. They even went to London with their old boss, Crossfire, as part of a R.A.I.D. terrorist attack on the city. They were tasked with causing destruction and death on Tower Bridge, but were defeated by Union Jack and Sabra.; Soon after the World War Hate, the Death-Throws attempted to rob the Big Top Casino in Las Vegas, but their plan was thwarted by Loki.; Ringleader hired Avengers Inc. to investigate the apparent murder of Oddball. Though Oddball survived, he did not rejoin the team. Heave-Ho, Chuck Stuff, and The Tosser auditioned to take his spot, but they were forced to flee when Venom appeared with an unidentified host.

+Notes: The Daydreamers unofficially first appeared in Generation X Vol 1 20 and officially in Daydreamers Vol 1 1
+History:
+Several years ago, the X-Men engaged in another of their long-standing battles against their arch-foe, Magneto. During the fight, the X-Men's leader, Charles Xavier rendered Magneto catatonic with a massive surge of psionic energy. A portion of Magneto's internal rage and aggression entered the Professor's subconscious mind, and soon gave birth to a corporeal psychic entity known as Onslaught. Onslaught cut a bloody swath of destruction across the state of New York and it took the combined strength of America's strongest heroes to end his threat once and for all. The super-hero teams known as the Avengers and the Fantastic Four valiantly gave their lives to defeat this powerful villain.; The deaths of Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman left their young son, Franklin Richards, an orphan. Franklin's grandfather, the time-traveling warlord known as Nathaniel Richards, brought Franklin to the Massachusetts branch of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. He asked co-headmaster, Sean Cassidy to watch over Franklin and to take care of him in the aftermath of this terrible tragedy. Sean agreed and vowed to do everything within his power to ease Franklin's suffering. He provided Franklin with a room inside the school's Bio-Sphere where he was introduced to two other mutant children, Artie Maddicks and the former Morlock known as Leech. Franklin, Artie and Leech became fast friends and before long, they were virtually inseparable. The children often interacted with Sean and fellow instructor Emma Frost, as well as the school's student body – Generation X.; During this same time period, an alien from the planet Rigel-3 named, Tana Nile, crash-landed on the planet Earth. The kids discovered her and brought her inside their Bio-Sphere tree-house. They were careful to not let Emma or Sean become aware of Tana's presence, and Leech would frequently run back and forth between the tree-house and the school in order to sneak some food for his new alien friend.; While the kids continued to administer aid to Tana, the fifth member of their non-group came into their lives. An alien known as Howard the Duck had recently given the mutants Chamber and Skin a ride back from Los Angeles. Upon arriving at the school, Howard met the kids who immediately warmed to the idea of playing with a talking duck. Howard had no interest in associating with even more "hairless apes", but found that he could not bring himself to leave.; Not long after the Christmas holiday, Sean Cassidy's evil brother, Black Tom attacked the school. Tom wanted revenge against Cassidy for stealing his niece Theresa away from him, and decided to manifest his vengeance by killing all of Sean's charges. Tom raided the Bio-Sphere, but Howard the Duck managed to keep the plant-like villain at bay by lighting him on fire.; The stress of the situation became too strong for Franklin Richards and he subconsciously desired a means of escape. To that end, he inadvertently used his innate mutant powers to summon the swamp-guardian known as the Man-Thing to the school. Howard the Duck had encountered the Man-Thing on several occasions and realized that the muck-monster was the focal point to a dimensional gateway called the Nexus of All Realities. Acting on instinct, Howard grabbed the kids, as well as Tana Nile, and dived inside the Man-Thing's vegetative body.; Upon exiting the Nexus, the group found themselves in a strange, alien environment. Although none of them were aware of it at the time, Franklin's mutant powers interacted with the event horizon of the Nexus creating a unique pocket dimension inside of Franklin's mind. As Franklin had yet to come to terms with the death of his parents, his subconscious mind created this reality as a virtual safety zone for himself and his fellow Daydreamers.; The world they found themselves, Nevernever-Narniozbia, was a colorful landscape populated by people and creatures from various fantasy literary works. Notably though, many of the denizens of this world bore stark resemblances to several heroes and villains from Franklin's home dimension. The King of Nevernever-Narniozbia was cast in the likeness of Doctor Doom, while the Scarlet Witch resembled the Wicked Witch of the East from the Wizard of Oz. Instead of Munchkins, the Daydreamers met dozens of small homunculi that looked remarkably a lot like the Thing.; As the group surveyed this strange dimension, a black, shadowy figure known only as the Dark Hunter arrived aboard a sailing sky-ship and began hunting them down. With an air of mystery, the Hunter declared that he "...was for Franklin Richards only". The Daydreamers were committed towards keeping Franklin away from the Dark Hunter, and they sought refuge in the care of a bizarre transvestite version of Doctor Strange. Strange confessed that he was unable to send them back to Earth, but he was capable of sending them to another plane of existence. With a wave of Strange's magic wand, the Daydreamers left Nevernever-Narniozbia and arrived in another alien realm.; The land they arrived in possessed all of the trappings of a Dr. Seuss storybook. They attempted to fit in, but their failure to speak perpetually in rhyme earned them a night in prison, courtesy of the Cadence Police.; The Dark Hunter meanwhile, managed to track them down to Seuss-land where he resumed his pursuit of Franklin Richards. Tana Nile broke her fellow Daydreamers out of prison and they found themselves racing for their lives once again.; With nowhere else to turn, they decided to take their chances with the Nexus. They dove inside of the Man-Thing's body, which transported them to yet another alternate plane of existence. This world was a simulacrum of Howard the Duck's home planet, Duckworld. In this reality, Howard was hailed as a great hero of his people and he came from a happy idyllic life, patterned after a 1950s family television sitcom.; Once again the Dark Hunter tracked them down and they soon began to realize the Hunter's true nature. The Dark Hunter was a figment of Franklin's imagination and represented all of his repressed pain and grief over the loss of his family. The only way that the Daydreamers could ever return to their home dimension was for Franklin to come to terms with his own inner turmoil. After a traumatic emotional breakdown, he finally accepted that his parents were gone, and the walls of the pocket dimension he had created for himself began to dissipate.; The Daydreamers entered the Nexus of All Realities and arrived back on Earth. The kids returned to the Xavier School while the Man-Thing, Howard the Duck and Tana Nile all went their separate ways.

They helped Strucker in building his future Hydra empire by giving him their advanced technology, which eventually led to the creations of the Life-Model Decoys and the Deltites.; It was eventually revealed that the events of Gruenstadt have never happened and that the Gnobians were advanced LMDs, unaware of their real origins and possibly had implanted memories, created by Arnim Zola under Baron Strucker's orders.

+Weapons: All three members of Death-Web use an artificial venom as a weapon. This lethal venom causes swelling, bloating and discoloration of the skin.
+History:
+===Origin===; Val Cooper, acting as the head of the Commission on Superhuman Activities, spearheaded a project to develop a new generation of super-heroes under government service. In Peru, Val Cooper enlisted a top-notch scientific team consisting of Dr. Carter Napier, Dr. Sylvie Yacqua, and Dr. Hashi Noto. Acting upon Yacqua's suggestion of utilizing substances from the Amazon Jungle, Yacqua and Noto embarked on a mission to gather chemicals with the potential to imbue subjects with spider-like abilities. Guided by Walter Cornwall and Liz Cornwall, they procured these substances. For their experimental subject, Val Cooper recommended Julia Carpenter, a former college associate and the daughter of the Cornwall's. Convincing Carpenter to join her cause, Cooper oversaw the transformation of Carpenter into "Spider-Woman".; ===Manipulator===; Later, after Spider-Woman left government service, the Manipulator clandestinely collaborated with Yacqua, Noto, and a maintenance worker named Theo Davros. The Manipulator induced them to ingest variants of the Spider Serum, resulting in their transformation into "Arachne", "Antro", and "Therak". Paying off and threatening Napier to maintain silence, the Manipulator manipulated the trio into serving him as Deathweb. However, the Manipulator tampered with the serum, ensuring the mutates' dependency on periodic treatments with an antidote to avoid fatal consequences.; In a subsequent encounter, Deathweb teleported into Avengers Compound, surveilling Spider-Woman before vanishing. They were later allegedly hired by a political figure to eliminate his rival, setting off a chain of deadly events. Deathweb executed individuals associated with this political scheme, drawing the attention of the Avengers West Coast. A confrontation ensued, leading to Deathweb's abduction of Rachel Carpenter, Spider-Woman's kin.; Spider-Woman, aided by Spider-Man, sought assistance from the Commission on Superhuman Affairs to combat Deathweb's threat. However, the Manipulator intervened, leveraging Rachel's life to coerce Spider-Woman into a deadly conflict. Despite the explosive showdown, Spider-Woman and Spider-Man managed to rescue Rachel, ultimately thwarting Deathweb's immediate plans.; Subsequently, Deathweb pursued Spider-Woman's family into the Amazon rainforest, where they planned to capture them. Spider-Woman, realizing the danger, embarked on a rescue mission, leading to a climactic showdown with Deathweb. Despite the formidable powers of her adversaries, Spider-Woman emerged victorious, thwarting Deathweb's nefarious intentions.; ===Imprisonment===; After Deathweb's apprehension and imprisonment, with their powers neutralized and their health presumably restored. However, one member, Therak, found himself at the mercy of Count Nefaria, who exploited Therak's ionic powers to bolster his own strength, setting the stage for further confrontations and challenges.

+History:
+The Deadpool Corps is a team of Deadpools from alternate universes. The Corps was founded by Earth-616's Deadpool after he was chosen by the Contemplator in stopping a cosmic entity known as the Awareness that devours the Multiverse's consciousness. In truth, the Deadpool Corps's real power to stop the entity is their unique mind that ultimately made them absolutely immune to the entity.; The Deadpool Corps came into conflict with the Champion, who and along with the Grandmaster did not see them as worthy heroes and decided to test them. Fortunately, the Corps proved their worth by tricking the Champion into becoming two-times stranded on a planet. With help from the Broken Blade, the Corps annihilated the entity who turns out to be a little alien that was the lone survivor of his species after the Big Bang.; The Deadpool Corps joined forces once more after Dreadpool formed an evil version of the Corps and started a multiversal massacre with the objective of killing every alternate version of himself. They managed to warn Deadpool and tried to bring him with the rest of the resistance in an alternate universe, but for their surprise, they were found and killed. Earth-616's Deadpool and the remaining Deadpools fought a group of the Evil Deadpool Corps led by Evil Deadpool, who revealed their appearance as a suicide mission, as they had brought with themselves Galactipool.

+Weapons: The Death Rider's primary weapons were torches which they threw at their targets. Their leader used a whip to torture their prisoners.
+Transportation: Each member of the Death Riders rode their own motorcycle.
+History:
+The Death Riders were a group of Imperial Japanese saboteurs who were active during World War II. They wore hooded costumes to conceal their nationality and rode on motorcycles as their primary mode of transport. In the summer of 1944, they were charged with destroying Crawford Munitions Factory, which was busy building special bombers to be used in bombing attacks on Tokyo for the war effort. They had attacked on the very night that US military official Lieutenant Hale was marrying Mary Crawford, daughter of Harry Crawford, owner of the plant. The attack on the building where the wedding was taking place was spotted by Private Steve Rogers and James Buchanan Barnes who went into action as Captain America and Bucky and forced the Death Riders to retreat. Cap and Bucky managed to knock one of the Riders off his bike and unmask him.; Chasing after the other Riders on a motorcycle, Captain America and Bucky lost the group, but knowing their intended target went back to town to help with stopping the fire started by the gang. The Death Riders then returned shortly thereafter and kidnapped Harry and his daughter while managing to elude capture a second time. Bringing the Crawfords to the Death Rider's secret hideout, their leader demanded to know when the guards changed at the plant. Even through fear of torture, both Crawfords refused to reveal the time the guards changed.; Deciding to attack the plant anyway, the Death Riders were accosted by Captain America and Bucky who led Lt. Hale and the workers to defend the plant. Taking three of the gang's robes and motorcycles, Captain America, Bucky, and Lt. Hale posed as members of the Death Riders and tricked some of their members into bringing them back to their secret hideout under the pretense that the base was destroyed. There, Cap, Bucky and Hale revealed their true identities and quickly rounded up the rest of the gang and saved Harry and Mary.; The Death Riders were summarily disbanded and the fate of its individual members is unrecorded.

+Base of operations: Formerly Clinic for Paranormal Research, Wisconsin; Sheboygan, Wisconsin
+History:
+The DDTeens were a gang of teenaged paranormals who were all patients at the Clinic for Paranormal Research, Wisconsin. Their leader, Scuzz apparently started the gang both because he resented the authority of adults and he liked having a gang to order around.; The DDTeens soon made their presence felt in the Clinic, frequently committing acts of vandalism and getting into fights. They clashed several times with the other special-interest group the Black Powers, which came to a head in a riot that involved all the Clinic's patients.; The DDTeens were indirectly responsible for the Clinic being shut down, when they were photographed by a reporter in the Clinic grounds using their paranormal powers. Before the police could arrive, they stole a car and left the Clinic, driving to the home of Scuzz's former therapy group member Stephanie Harrington. Steph put them up, but they soon made a nuisance of themselves, fighting and arguing, until her husband Chuck told them to leave. When the Harringtons went on the run to avoid being drafted by the Army, the DDTeens took over their house and car, and robbed supermarkets to survive. When a police car spotted them leaving the scene of one such robbery, a high-speed pursuit ensued and the DDTeens' car went off the road. Two of the teens - Annie Stevenson and Joel Larson - were killed, and the rest badly injured. This spelled the end of the gang, and Scuzz turned to the paranormal religion of White Eventists to deal with his guilt over the deaths of his friends.

+Notes: Not to be confused with the term "deathwalkers," one of the alternate terms for vampires.
+History:
+The Deathwalkers were a group of people who had achieved immortality through black magic formed by Lichidus, Cairn, Adur, and Viciada, in order to work together to gain more power.; Since old times, they tried to use the Talisman of Kamar-Taj to create a sacrifice so powerful it would destroy humanity. In once instance in 1908, the Deathwalkers used the talisman in Tunguska to create The Bear. The spell resulted in an explosion so powerful that it could be heard as far as away as London. This would later be known as the "Tunguska Event".; In 1972, one of their attempts to make the sacrifice was thwarted by the Mighty Avengers. The Talisman was taken from them and it was hidden in the Himalayas by Kaluu. The Talisman made its way to the Inhumans' Attilan.; In the present times, the Deathwalkers returned to New York, and rediscovered the Talisman once Attilan fell on New York. Lichidus sent a hellhound to retrieve it, but if failed and Blade (who was undercover as Ronin) took it.; The Deathwalkers then proceeded to send numerous creatures to fight the vampire slayer and get it. They finally succeeded in capturing Blade after sending Were-Roosters to battle him, and planned to use his blood for a sacrifice.; Even though the Mighty Avengers located Blade and arrived to help him, the Deathwalker's legion of servants provided a distraction so the heroes couldn't get to Deathwalkers before they could finish their ritual. The successfully-finished ceremony merged them together into the Deathwalker Prime, a creature with control over the four elements, thus power over the fifth: the spirit, which would be the key for it to destroy humankind.; However, the Mighty Avengers managed to get hold of the cup used in the ritual of merging, and using a similar procedure merged themselves into the Avenger Prime, which managed to destroy the Deathwalker Prime, mainly because unlike the Deathwalker, the different personas merged into it were truly spiritually bonded, while the personas composing the Deathwalker were fighting for control.

However, one of them was against the idea. When he sacrificed himself by entering a Deadpool-killing machine, he brought an infection to the others that destroyed 99% of them. Liz, a survivor that had befriended the outcast Deadpool, realized that there were other remaining Deadpools out there, so she took the alias of Deadpool and decided to kill the rest of them herself.

+History:
+The origins of the Death's Head Guard is unclear. One account stated that they were created in the Microverse by the Homeworlders to be used in the war against the K'aitians, under the command of Arcturus Rann. According to M.A.I.M., the Death's Head Guard were designed after the Death's Head Unit created in the future of Earth-6216. However, how these units ended up in the Earth-616 reality is a mystery.; Some 300 of these unit ended up passing through the Great Portal over the planet Sakaar some years ago and were used by Red King Angmo-Asan to win the so-called Spike War. He later used them to be his elite guard following the war. The Death's Head Guard were mostly used to keep slaves in line and stop insurrections on the planet. They were soon used to battle the Hulk when he threatened the Red King's rule. However, the Hulk ultimately took over the kingdom after defeating the Red King. When Sakaar was seemingly destroyed, some of the remaining Death's Head Guard were taken by the Hulk and his Warbound to Earth to get revenge against the Illuminati, whom the Hulk blamed for the destruction. The Guard were used to police an arena match between members of the Illuminati, until Earth's heroes were able to defeat the Hulk.; One member of the Death's Head Guard that were taken to Earth survived the Hulk's war and was reunited with Rann, talking the name "Carl", while the others were claimed by Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S.. A secret A.I.M. scientist who had infiltrated Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S., Evelyn Necker, would study these Death's Head Guard to create her own Minion Project.; Meanwhile, the Planet Sakaar survived, at least for a short period of time, and some of the Death's Head Guard units remained on the planet. They later clashed with Skaar, the son of the Hulk. Presumably, any remaining Death's Head units were destroyed when Sakaar was later consumed by Galactus.

+History:
+The Death's Head Squadron was a S.S. unit created by Adolf Hitler and led by Baron Wolfgang von Strucker.; Altough a S.S. division, the Squadron operated independently from the Reich, following only Baron Strucker's orders. They were ordered by Strucker to capture young Russian killer Natalia Romanova and to bring her in Madripoor, where Strucker was going to have a meeting with the cabal of ninjas known as the Hand; they fought against Captain America, Logan and Ivan Petrovich, but they were defeated and ultimately killed when Logan's ally Seraph arrived and shotted them.; Many years later Strucker, now leader of the terrorist organization known as Hydra, had his ally Arnim Zola building several advanced Life-Model Decoys in order to use them in his future plans. Some of those LMDs were created to pose as the Gnobians an alien race that had never existed, programmed with false memories of an event that had never taken place: the discovering of a Gnobian space ship in the forest of Gruenstadt, a German village by Strucker and his Death's Head Squadron. According to this false history, Strucker "helped" the Gnobians, who gave the Baron alien powers and technology, the same he would use to built Hydra.; Time later, while Strucker was dead, his son Werner, now head of Hydra, started his father's backup plan to distract his longtime adversary Colonel Nick Fury while the Red Skull would accomplish his resurrection.; Werner then activated the Gnobian LMD unit known as the Death's Head Squadron, which started to capture and kill those who were near to Fury, believing themselves to be real aliens and searching vengeance for their savior, Strucker. They were defeated by Fury and some other former S.H.I.E.L.D. members.; Later, Fury found an hologram of Baron Strucker who explained him the whole Gnobian affair was just a distraction and that he would be resurrected soon.

After causing Ultimo's reactivation and failing to stop him on his own, M.O.D.O.K. approached the locals of Lingares under the pretense of offering them help in stopping the giant robot. The initial batch of Deathloks were made using fallen countrymen. Due to the ongoing robot revolution, the Deathloks decided to rebel against M.O.D.O.K.'s control and but continued confronting Ultimo, albeit to destroy him and prevent him from falling under M.O.D.O.K.'s control. When the Deathloks couldn't stop Ultimo, they turned to abducting living people to turn them into their own.; Force Works was deployed in Lingares to investigate a nuclear explosion caused by M.O.D.O.K. in his attempts to contain Ultimo. Shortly after they reached the island, they were swarmed and overwhelmed by the Deathloks. They were defeated and taken prisoners, and while War Machine was taken to be transformed into a Deathlok, the rest of the team managed to break free and help the other prisoners escape. During this scuffle, the Deathloks confronted both Ultimo and Force Works. After M.O.D.O.K. liberated War Machine, he defeated the Deathloks surrounding his teammates.; M.O.D.O.K. and Force Works joined forces and engaged Ultimo, resulting in his defeat. However, M.O.D.O.K. usurped Ultimo's decapitated body and rechristened himself UltiM.O.D.O.K., forcing Force Works to retreat to a bunker. The Deathloks breached the bunker, but, after examining M.O.D.O.K.'s files on them, War Machine connected himself to the command processor of one of the Deathloks that reigned over the rest, and commanded them against UltiM.O.D.O.K., forcing him into a magma-filled fissure created by Quake. As a result, all of the Deathloks also fell into the fissure and were destroyed. Even Rhodes attempted to jump into the fissure due to being affected by the command processor's programming, but he was stopped by his teammates and returned to normal afterwards.

+History:
+After the Earth was invaded by intelligent zombies called the Respawned, people called Deadheads began worshiping them, believing them to be the next step in human evolution or hoping that they would be spared from being eaten. Some Respawned kept Deadheads around to lure in survivors to feed on. One group of mutant Deadheads followed a zombified Beast and lured victims into the abandoned Xavier Mansion for Beast to feed on.; When a group of survivors freed victims the Deadheads planned to give to Beast, they angrily confronted the survivors. A member of the survivors turned out to be former X-Man Forge, which surprised a few of the Deadheads. Another Deadhead named Leo didn't think that mattered. Before a fight broke out between the Deadheads and the survivors, Beast appeared. Leo tried to make up for the loss of the victims by offering the survivors that freed them as they were mutates so Beast didn't eat him. However, Beast ate him anyway, causing the other Deadheads to flee in terror. After Beast killed Forge, Spider-Man decapitated Beast with piano wire.; The Respawned were eventually wiped out following the destruction of their hive mind. It's unrevealed if the Deadhands disbanded following the Respawned's end.

+Trivia: As seen in a concept art, the fight sequence with the Deadpool Corps originally was meant to happen with the Resistance, including surviving members Human Torch, Daredevil and Ghost Rider, the latter character being cut from the film entirely. The sequence was ultimately scrapped due to budget constraints.
+History:
+This version of the Deadpool Corps consists of at least a hundred Variants of Deadpool from various realities who have been pruned by the TVA and sent to the Void. The Corps worked for Cassandra Nova, doing her biddings.; When Cassandra decided to destroy every reality and leave only the Void behind, she ventured from the Void to Earth-10005 to use the TVA's Time Ripper. To stall Deadpool Prime and Wolverine and prevent them from stopping her, she summoned the Corps to follow her to Earth-10005.; Led by Ladypool, the Corps emerged from the portal and, after listening to a plea from the one called Deadpool Prime, opened fire on him regardless. Deadpool Prime had used Nicepool as a human shield, unaware that he lacked a healing factor, and the Corps kept firing at him until his head exploded. Wolverine popped out holding Dogpool, and the entire Corps immediately stopped firing to avoid hurting her. Wolverine then put on his mask and together with Deadpool Prime they tore up through the entire Corps, stabbing and slashing their way through. When they reached Babypool, they saw that he laughed and pointed behind them, where the Deadpools were now getting back up thanks to their healing factors.; Further hostilities were prevented by the arrival of Peter, whom every Deadpool adored back in their own worlds. The whole Corps started cheering for Peter, giving Deadpool Prime and Wolverine chance to leave the scene and stop Cassandra Nova's plans. When B-15 showed up to lead the TVA cleanup, they had send all Deadpools except the local one back to the Void.

The gang's symbol was a dead rabbit, and they were notorious for their brutality.; Matt Murdock ancestor Tommy Murdock moved from Ireland and settled in Hell's Kitchen, in the 1820s. He joined the Dead Rabbits to fight the anti-immigrant Bowery Boys. Despite his criminal life, he remained a devout Catholic. In 1835, while protecting Irish churchgoers, Tommy discovered St. Matthew's Church was built on cursed land. A Native American woman, Soena'hane'e, led him to a hidden passage where Father Emmett revealed his cult had been sacrificing Irishmen to summon the demonic Blind One, with Tommy as the final offering. Wounded but defiant, Tommy fought back. As Soena’hane’e battled the demon, he destroyed the altar, killing Father Emmett and sealing the demon's passage. The tomb collapsed, and Tommy perished, sacrificing himself to stop the Blind One.

+History:
+After Alchemax discovered a Deathlok's arm in 2022, they started experimenting on that and in year 2067 they developed Formula-D, a nanobots composite that was able to turn dead human bodies into Deathloks. Alchemax's chief, Tyler Stone immediately sent his cyborg soldiers against his main competitors; unable to create anything similar to the Deathloks, Stark-Fujikawa's employees reactivated some old technologies... including the evil robot Ultron, who took control over Deathloks and started his war against humanity. Alchemax became the key of Ultron's Empire of Machines, and Formula-D labs allowed him to turn 75% of humanity into Deathloks by the year 2099.; In year 2089, Ultron dropped some Formula-D bombs on a human colony, turning Jake Gallows's family into Deathloks and the future Punisher was forced to kill them. Then in year 2091, Ultron defeated the monarch of Latveria, Doom, but he was unable to conquer the country due to the Latverian Army that savagely opposed the Deathloks army in what would be known as the "Iron Front".; In year 2099, when time-displaced Savage Avengers arrived in that timeline, Ultron sent a little bunch of Deathloks against them, but the cyborgs were eventually defeated. Some time later, thanks to the Ultron's database they'd stolen ,the Avengers assaulted Hellrock prison in order to free Doom and there they fought against both common Deathloks and the cyborg guardian of the prison, D.E.A.T.H.D.O.K., but the heroes were able to overcome them all. Savage Avengers' plan then consisted into going to Latveria to find the Time-Array Gauntlet with Doom and travelling back in time to avoid that dark future, however Ultron forestalled them and got the Gauntlet before killing the whole team that had tried to stop him. The survived Punisher and Deathlok (Miles Morales) later tried to enter Alchemax Tower, but the Deathlok-turned Savage Avengers attacked them and almost killed them before Doom came along saving their lives, in those moments Deathlok found out that a part of the Avengers' mind was blocked in the Cyberspace, so he entered that place as well and he was eventually able to overcome Ultron's program, allowing the heroes to return Alchemax factory to use Formula-D to rebuild their bodies, meanwhile the Punisher had died protecting the heroic Deathlok while he was sent right on the top the Tower, where Ultron waited him to fight.; Punisher was turned into a Deathlok as well, but Miles convinced him to rebel against his master, meanwhile the rest of the army was fighting against past and present Savage Avengers. Eventually all Deathloks were erased from timeline as well as the whole reality.

+History:
+The Defenders are a group of amateur vigilantes who dress up as super-heroes. None of them have superpowers, although they claim to be experienced in crime-fighting. However, the group is only interested in becoming celebrities as a self described super-hero team rather than actually going out and stopping crimes or saving lives. Their members included Power Man, Hellcat, Nighthawk, Valkyrie, Black Knight, and Son of Satan. They were later joined by Whiz-Kid, a wheelchair bound boy suffering from polio. He claimed to have the ability to vary the temperature of certain inorganic materials.; Henry Pym was invited to join them, and he accepted, adopting a new identity - Ant-Man. The Defenders were thrilled at the prospect of having an actual superhuman join their team, and convinced Pym they were a serious project. Unfortunately, their first mission together was a disaster, and Pym, who wanted to remain out of the spotlight, was forced by the Valkyrie to reveal himself to save them, humiliating himself in the process.; After Henry Pym's embarrassing stint, Loki (under his alias Gunnar Golmen) approached Valkyrie and offered her and her team the chance to have actual superpowers. They accepted and fell under Loki's servitude. Thereafter, Pym rejoined the Ultimates and the empowered Valkyrie was trained by Thor. After the events of Ultimatum, the remaining Defenders mysteriously disappeared from prying eyes for three weeks, and even away from S.H.I.E.L.D., who were unable to contact the Son of Satan -- their insider in the group. They attacked the Ultimates in order to steal Thor's hammer, which they succeeded in doing. Following their theft, the Defenders were boringly living in Hellcat's apartment, which was about to be evicted, before being shortly faced with retribution from the Ultimates.

+Notes: A story in issues #63-65 of Defenders (Volume 1) had dozens of new applicants attempting to join the Defenders. All of them left shortly afterward for various reasons, mostly due to disappointment with the existing members. Among them were the Falcon, Marvel Man (currently known as Quasar), Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, Nova (Richard Rider), the Torpedo, Stingray, Havok, Polaris, Black Goliath, the White Tiger, Captain Ultra, Tagak the Leopard Lord, Hercules, the Prowler, the Jack of Hearts, the Son of Satan, Iron Fist, and Paladin. Nineteen heroes joined the group as the so-caled "Defenders for a Day."; During the "Defenders for a Day" incident, a separate villainous team was put together by the Life Model Decoy versions of Sagittarius and Libra to take advantage of the recent publicity of the team and create public distrust in the Defenders. Its members included the Blob, the Toad, Pecos, Batroc the Leaper, the Beetle, Plantman, Whirlwind, Electro, Joe the Gorilla, the Melter, the Leap-Frog, the Shocker, Boomerang, the Porcupine, and the Looter. This group participated in a series of running battles throughout New York City against the expanded Defenders roster until a rage-possessed Valkyrie drove off the members of both teams.; In the Marvel Team-Up (Volume 3) storyline "The Titannus War", Doctor Strange formed a group of unofficial Defenders, although the name was never used or even mentioned, consisting of himself, Spider-Man (Peter Parker), Nova, the She-Hulk, Ms. Marvel, and the Hulk. Once they confronted Titannus, they were joined by Wolverine.
+History:
+===Origins===; While trying to defend Earth from the extra-dimensional demonic beings called the Undying Ones, the Sorcerer Supreme Doctor Strange manipulated Namor the Sub-Mariner into aiding him, and then both of them teamed up with the Hulk to ward off the demons. Later, when the Yannian scientist Yandroth menaced Earth with the Omegatron doomsday device, Doctor Strange persuaded a reluctant Hulk and Namor to help him thwart Yandroth's scheme, thus forming the "non-team" known as the Defenders. After Yandroth's defeat, the Hulk and Namor vowed never to work together again, but Strange managed to hold their informal alliance together over time. Unlike other super-hero teams, however, the Defenders had no charter or by-laws, no permanent headquarters, no fixed roster... and both little affection and respect for each other, if any.; The Defenders' ranks soon grew. Due to the group's unofficial nature; any individual who assisted them could be considered a member, but only a select few fit the two major criteria of true membership: that they considered themselves Defenders and that they were accepted by the continuing core group as Defenders. Strange's disciple, Clea, assisted the group on an irregular basis. The alien the Silver Surfer's longtime link with the Defenders began when they aided him against Calizuma and his Warrior Wizards, agents of the Undying Ones. The Asgardian warrior goddess the Valkyrie became a mainstay of the group (first in her mortal host body of former Undying Ones follower Barbara Norriss and later in her own body) after helping them defeat Casiolena. The master archer Hawkeye fought several battles with the group before leaving it. Nighthawk, a reformed super-villain and the head of Richmond Enterprises, became a long-term core Defender after a near-fatal battle with his former group the Squadron Sinister and their alien employer Nebulon the Celestial Man, who became one of the Defenders' most enduring foes. The cambion (human/demon hybrid) the Son of Satan helped rescue the Hulk from Hell and aided the group in other matters, eventually becoming a full Defender. Mercenary super-hero Luke Cage reluctantly aided the group in several battles until Nighthawk placed him on retainer to secure his full-time services, though Cage felt out of place and soon left the group. The dissident Russian heroine the Red Guardian became a member of the group after being sent to the U.S. to assist in an operation on Nighthawk, and Barbara Norriss' ex-husband, Jack Norriss, became a regular - if sometimes rather unwelcome - associate of the group, at one point even with his mind in Nighthawk's body for a time. Occasionally, their paths (almost) crossed with the mysterious, murderous Elf with a Gun, though they somehow never actually encountered him; another Elf later become mixed up in their affairs, though, as an agent of the alien Tribunals.; The group also attracted an eclectic array of recurring associates and occasional members such as Daredevil, Yellowjacket and the Devil-Slayer. The Hellcat, a former model turned super-heroine, was the group's next major long-term member. The Gargoyle, an old man trapped in a demon's body, joined the Defenders in their quest to prevent the grouping of six lesser demons known as the Six-Fingered Hand (Avarrish, Fashima, Hyppokri, Maya, Puishannt, and Unnthinnk), who in turn were being manipulated by an alliance of four powerful Hell-Lords (Mephisto (who was disguised as Maya), Satannish, Thog the Nether-Spawn and Satan (a.k.a. Marduk Kurios)) in order to merge their respective Hell-realms with Earth.; The ever-shifting ranks of the Defenders battled menaces such as the Dread Dormammu, the Lord of the Dark Dimension; Xemnu the Living Titan, the psionic alien conqueror; the Headmen, four megalomaniacal scientists whose individual experiments had warped their own bodies; Shazana, who took control of Nighthawk's ex-girlfriend, Trish Starr; Egghead (Trish's uncle) and the second incarnation of the Emissaries of Evil; the Red Rajah (who was actually Doctor Strange possessed by a sentient ruby named the Star of Capistan); Null the Living Darkness; and the Undying Ones, who threatened Earth yet again. The Defenders were even tricked into fighting the Avengers when Dormammu and the Asgardian god of evil Loki manipulated them into assembling the broken Evil Eye of Avalon. After several skirmishes, the two groups joined forces and foiled Loki and Dormammu's scheme.; The Defenders' existence was revealed to the world in an unauthorized TV documentary made by the Valkyrie's friend, filmmaker/television producer Dollar Bill. As a result, a horde of well-meaning super-heroes arrived at the team's headquarters at the time (the Richmond Riding Academy) and declared themselves Defenders (while others, such as Captain Mar-Vell, Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers), and Paladin, decided against Defenders affiliation); but all of these so-called "Defenders for a Day" decided to quit the team after a single harrowing day in action with it.; When Arisen Tyrk was deposed as God-King of the extra-dimensional Other-Realm, he fled through a damaged portal that split him into various fragments. Some of Tyrk's sentient fragments landed on Earth and plagued the Defenders as the crazed Lunatik vigilantes, while another fragment became drama professor Harrison Turk. Other fragments fell under the control of the powerful other-dimensional sorcerer known as the Unnameable and landed on the alien Tunnelworld, where they allied themselves with the vile Ytitnedion of the Buzzard People. When the Defenders entered Tunnelworld to investigate Lunatik's origins, they joined with Aeroika and the alien sorcerer Xhoohx, liberating the cylindrical realm from the influence of the Unnameable and Ytitnedion. By this time, the four founding members of the Defenders were only occasional participants in the group; they soon quit the group altogether after the race of energy beings known as the Tribunals tricked Doctor Strange, the Hulk, Namor, and the Silver Surfer into believing that the interaction of their karmic energies would eventually lead to the destruction of Earth. The four heroes split up, resolving never to work together again.; ===The New Defenders===; With the group's four most powerful members gone, the mutant the Beast (an X-Men founding member and a recent Defenders recruit) tried to reorganize the Defenders as a more formal group named the New Defenders. This group, based at the Angel's "Aerie" home in Colorado, consisted of three former members of the X-Men (the Angel, the Beast, and the Iceman), former Defenders the Valkyrie and the Gargoyle, new members Moondragon and Cloud, later joined by the Atlantean Andromeda, and nominally led by the Angel's long-term girlfriend, Candy Southern. Despite a number of early successes, though, including their defeat of the Secret Empire, the group was plagued by problems, many of them relating to the Dragon of the Moon, a mystical entity which possessed Moondragon. Eventually the Valkyrie, the Gargoyle, Moondragon, Andromeda, and new members the Interloper and the team's psychotic former adversary, Manslaughter, were all apparently killed battling the Dragon, and the surviving members (the three former X-Men) disbanded the Defenders and went off to found X-Factor. The apparently dead members were later resurrected from the dead, but most of them have never operated as Defenders ever since.; Later, after the Tribunals' apocalyptic prophecy was revealed to be a trick, Doctor Strange, the Hulk, Namor, and the Silver Surfer reunited to battle Shanzar, the Sorcerer Supreme of the Strange Matter dimension, who was trying to resurrect the Elder God known as the Wild One. Possessing the body of Namor, Shanzar succeeded in performing the ritual needed to bring back the Wild One, but the Defenders were able to trap the Wild One in the Strange Matter dimension, forcing Shanzar to concede defeat.; ===The Curse of Yandroth===; The original four Defenders next reunited to once again battle Yandroth, who was tapping the power of the Elder Goddess Gaea to cause worldwide chaos. The Defenders prevailed, but a dying Yandroth used Earth's power to place a deathbed curse upon Doctor Strange, the Hulk, Namor, and the Silver Surfer that automatically united them whenever a catastrophe placed Earth in peril. The curse also had a secret side effect, causing the rationality of the four heroes to be submerged by their more selfish desires. The slain Yandroth's consciousness secretly fed off the violent energy created by the cursed Defenders, planning to be reborn more powerful than ever. Corrupted by the curse, Strange, the Hulk, Namor, and the Surfer abandoned their fellow Defenders and formed the Order, a group dedicated to ending any perceived threat to world peace by any means necessary. Operating out of the floating metropolis Sky Island, the Order opposed all who challenged their new world order until the remaining Defenders broke Yandroth's curse and restored the Order's humanity. Gaea empowered Nighthawk to gather the Defenders at will should the need arise.; ===The Last Defenders===; A version of the Defenders led by Nighthawk was also a part of the 50-State Initiative program, but it is as yet unknown whether these "Last Defenders" will work together again or become a part of the main group.; ===Fear Itself===; A new version of the Defenders featuring Doctor Strange, Namor, the Silver Surfer, Loa, and Lyra was formed to help in Atlantis' battle against Nerkkod: Breaker of Oceans, one of the Serpent's seven warriors known as the Worthy. Being outnumbered, Doctor Strange called every super-hero who was part of the Defenders to help, defeating Nerkkod.; ===There Are No Rules===; The Defenders were then reassembled by Doctor Strange again after the mysterious Masked Raider sought his help to find former Enclave scientist Carlo Zota, who had fled into the past using magic. Strange employed magic to pick the team, and these Defenders consisted of the Silver Surfer, the Red Harpy, and Cloud. In order to give Cloud a human form, Strange submitted himself to the will of magic to sacrifice his ego, and the spell pulled the Defenders back to the Sixth Cosmos on the planet Taa. The team helped the locals fend off against this cosmos' equivalent of Galactus, Omnimax, whose Herald was the cosmically-empowered Zota. In the process, the Defenders were joined by Galactus' own mother, the scienceer Taaia. Strange's use of magic to deal the final blow against Omnimax pulled the team and Zota further back in time to the Fifth Cosmos, save for the Silver Surfer, who was returned to the future after his fight against Zota had purged Strange's spell from his body.; In the Fifth Cosmos, a realm of pure magic, the Defenders came to blows against Omnimax's past self, the mage Moridun, who had enslaved Zota. Doctor Strange channeled his powers through the Red Harpy, allowing her to summon a Green Door to destroy Moridun. After his defeat, the Defenders and Zota were sucked into the Fourth Cosmos, one populated by the primal avatars of abstract heroic Archetypes locked in an unending and recurring conflict. Zota allied himself with Galactus' archetypal precursor, What-Must-Be, in the hopes to become the ultimate power during the transition between cosmoses. Taking a new shape for themself, Cloud rallied the Archetypes against What-Must-Be, prompting Zota to escape to the Third Cosmos. Except for Cloud, who decided to stay among the Archetypes, the Defenders were brought to Zota by the sentience of the Fourth Cosmos, the Pilgrim.; The group was taken to the very first battle between existence and nothingness, the fight between Lifebringer One and the Old Dragon named the Anti-All. They encountered Zota, who had been driven insane by this cosmos' makeup, which was too basic for human senses. He fended off the Defenders, but all of their actions drew power from Lifebringer One, risking his victory. The Masked Raider attempted to defuse the situation, but Zota killed him instead. Zota then pulled the Eternity Mask off his dead body, only to discover that the Masked Raider was actually Zota himself. Convinced of the error of his ways after being confronted by a vision from Eternity, Zota put on the mask and fought the Anti-All. The Defenders then combined their powers to empower Lifebringer One, allowing him to deal the final blow against the Anti-All, destroying it and causing Zota to disappear as well. With their assembling spell wearing off, the Defenders faded back to their respective times. Back at his Sanctum Sanctorum, Doctor Strange secured the Eternity Mask.; ===Defenders: Beyond===; Following this adventure and his eventual death, Doctor Strange charged the adventurer the Blue Marvel with keeping the Eternity Mask safe and keeping the Defenders active to protect reality. With Eternity being threatened by something from Outside the Multiverse, Strange's wishes were carried out, forming a new group of Defenders to be assembled to investigate this threat. Coincidentally, America, one of those destined to join the team, contacted the Blue Marvel for help during the incident. Next, Taaia from the Sixth Cosmos and a time-displaced Loki, who had escaped the end of the Seventh Cosmos, were summoned. The last hero recruited was the wild Tigra. Eternity addressed the group directly in the Neutral Zone and tasked them to find the face of his enemy before sending them Outside.; Upon arriving at the Beyond, the Defenders were told its history as the remnants of the Second Cosmos by the Beyonder. The Blue Marvel pointed out to the Beyonders that they were the ones who destroyed the Seventh Cosmos, but the Beyonders responded that they had destroyed it to prevent another threat. The Beyonders informed the Defenders that they had to go back inside the Multiverse, but the Blue Marvel gave America the Eternity Mask to confront them. After a brawl, in which Taaia was fatally injured, the Defenders escaped further to the White Hot Room, where Taaia ascended as an avatar of the Phoenix Force. The Beyonder also joined them, as he was caught in Loki's narrative arc. However, Phoenix attacked Loki because he was time-displaced. Tigra called upon the Tiger God to save them, separating Taaia from Phoenix and escaping the White Hot Room. Eternity's Defenders fell into the Land of Couldn't-Be-Shouldn't-Be, where they got trapped in a "Maybe-verse" of their fantasies by Glorian. Fortunately, the Defenders broke free as America could see through the ruse with the Eternity Mask, which was subsequently used by Loki used to summon the Pilgrim of the Fourth Cosmos, the Queen of Nevers. Cloud made their return, bringing the Defenders to the door of the House of Ideas.; At the House of Ideas, the Defenders met the One Above All. The Blue Marvel speculated that although the One Above All was the highest that they could go, it was the beginning of something higher. After answering some of their questions, the One Above All showed the Defenders the mysterious threat that Eternity sent them to find: the "Enigma" to come. Afterwards, the time-displaced Loki debated whether to leave the story through the House of Ideas or to stay to become the "current" Loki, who was found to just be a rehash of his own old self. The Defenders convinced Loki to stay, while the Beyonder decided to leave. The Defenders then returned to the present Multiverse: the time-displaced Loki became the current Loki in possession of the Eternity Mask, Tigra resumed her operations with the Moon Knight, America served alongside the Thunderbolts, and Taaia chose to stay in the Eighth Cosmos instead of returning to the Sixth Cosmos without her memories. Meanwhile, the Blue Marvel declared that, if needed, the Defenders were still available to protect Eternity from the Enigma.; Storm would later seek out the non-team, now seemingly consisting of just the Blue Marvel and Taaia. Storm needed their help in traveling to the afterlife, as she hoped to resurrect Magneto to help out the X-Men in their time of need.

The Defenders then teleported to safety because they needed to create a strategy first.; After a couple of days, the Defenders returned to deal with the threat. The heroes utilized a strategy of keeping Attuma and Nagala busy, while the other team members could be defeated much more easily. Hulk refused to follow the plan and confronted Orka alone, but the rest of the team followed orders.; The Defenders defeated Piranha, Sea Urichin, and Tiger Shark all relatively easily. Nagala was left, but she was stopped by the Silver Surfer and was knocked unconscious. Namor confronted Attuma alone and beat him in single contact. Deep Six apparently decided to disband not long after this battle.

+Entering the dream of his disturbed friend Notebooks Joe, Doctor Strange saw a reunion with the Defenders. Not long after, the Hulk appeared at the Sanctum Sanctorum asking for his help in stopping a great menace. Nul, the Serpent's Breaker of Worlds, was unleashed upon the world as consequence of the Hulk destroying his hammer. Doctor Strange then gathered King Namor, the Silver Surfer, the Red She-Hulk, and the Immortal Iron Fist to go on a quest to save mankind.; Prester John planned to lure Nul to Wundagore Mountain to make him destroy the Concordance Engine hidden there, thus also destroying reality and allowing him to restart in another universe. The Defenders were able to foil his plan after Prester Omega, guardian of the Concordance Engine, destroyed Nul. The energies of the Engine affected them, binding them to it and making them unable to speak about it. They took the Engine and Prester Omega to the Sanctum Sanctorum.; The Defenders later found the wreckage of the Nautilus, accidentally releasing the Ninety-Nine Daughters of Pontus. They found another Concordance Engine inside it. The Immortal Weapons were killed by the Prince of Orphans (John Aman), who had a history with the Engines, as did Iron Fist's predecessor, Orson Randall.; The Defenders journeyed to Wakanda on their way to Z'Gambo, home of the Prince of Orphans. After Aman broke the ceasefire between the two nations by killing King T'Challa, the Defenders invaded Z'Gambo and confronted him. They were aided by the Black Cat, who was on a mission for the Council of Antiquarians to steal the third King Solomon's Frog from Aman. When the Defenders reunited with the Council, Aman revealed the three Frogs were parts of another Concordance Engine, which he used to blast the Defenders away.; They emerged in an alternate reality and decided to enlist the help of the native Nick Fury. However, Hydra intervened, forcing the Silver Surfer to convince Prester Omega to teleport them back to their reality. However, when they made it home, the Earth was being destroyed by a Death Celestial, whom the Engines were meant to defend against. Before they died, Strange sent his spirit to the past to prevent the events that led to discovering the Engines from unfolding.

+History:
+The Defenders were assembled under unrevealed circumstances. They came to the attention of the Avengers when they ran into Defender John Eisenhart while looking for Martin Hargood, who was wanted in connection for a failed attempt on the life of Avenger Captain America. Eisenhart had Hargood cornered in the Latverian Cuisine restaurant. When the Avengers intervened, Eisenhart transformed into the Hulk and was later joined by the rest of the Defenders team.; The two teams almost came to blows, but the Defenders proved themselves trustworthy when Defenders Sub-Mariner and Valkyrie prevented Hargood from escaping. The two teams made peace, and the Defenders agreed to let Hargood be taken in by Alchemax, the Avengers' employer, for interrogation. While at Alchemax Tower, Alchemax CEO Miguel Stone offered the Defenders a place in Alchemax, but the Defenders refused and left. The Defenders later learned that Stone's offer wasn't just him being nice. Alchemax literally ruled the domain of 2099, and any superhero that didn't work for Alchemax was considered a criminal. The Avengers managed to defeat the Defenders and captured Hulk, Sub-Mariner, and Silver Surfer while Valkyrie and Strange escaped.; Captain America, however, disagreed with Stone's orders, believing that the Defenders had a right to operate without Alchemax's interference. With help from fellow Avenger Hercules, Captain freed the captured Defenders while fighting off her fellow Avengers. Captain's husband then triggered a failsafe that changed her back into her civilian persona of Roberta Mendez, which had no memory of her superhero persona. Strange was able to rescue Mendez.; During the Defenders' rescue attempt by Mendez, Hargood was able to escape custody and use Alchemax's virtual unreal laboratory to summon the monster the Dweller-in-Darkness. The situation became so dire that Stone that he called not just the Avengers but also allowed the Defenders to help without fear of being arrested. While Avenger Iron Man and Defenders Silver Surfer, Hulk, and Sub-Mariner dealt with the Dweller, the other Avengers and Defenders dealt with Hargood and knocked him out. Strange was then able to send the Dweller back to where he came from. As an act of gratitude, Stone allowed the Defenders to continue operating independently.

Donny, a member of the resistance brought Simon Garth to the Defenders and the group realized they could use him to wear the bomb. However, when the time came, Donny did not want to see his friend die, so Moon-Girl helped the pair escape which left the Defenders to be overwhelmed by the zombies.

+Reality: Earth-24331
+History:
+The Defenders were formed as an underground group of street vigilantes guided by retired hero Luke Cage, working from the shadows to revolt against the government's oppressive and authoritarian rule. As a culmination of the events of H-Day, resulting from a plot of the malignant Ultron, the public rejected superhuman vigilantism and endorsed the rise of a draconic surveillance state policed by S.H.I.E.L.D. through the Watcher Act. In this regime, the interests of conglomerates were absolute over the freedom of people, who lived under the false illusion of liberty. Mainly composed by teenagers, the Defenders helped the victims of the system.; The group's genius Carey managed to recreate the Super-Soldier Serum that had provided Captain America with his powers, but were unable to activated it successfully, as all their test subjects perished. After Matt Murdock was assassinated for trying to legally defend those the system was trying to disappear, the Defenders brought in the original Captain America, Steve Rogers, to their hideout. Rogers agreed to undergo the treatment which restored his superhuman powers. Vowing to re-assemble the Avengers, he decided to actively fight injustice. The Defenders' next plan was to seize communication channels during New Year's Eve at Times Square in order to spark revolt within the people. They were successful, and Captain America was able to share his dreams with the community, but the plan backfired as they gained no subsequent support. Instead, the Defenders then focused on recovering the genius Tony Stark in order to sabotage a secret weapon used to maintain hegemony.

Deep Void managed to accomplish this part of the plan, but were soon confronted by some of the performers, Ghost-Spider, Luna Snow, Dazzler, and Lila Cheney. The heroes teleported the attendants somewhere else for their safety, though the Deep Void had the upper hand as they were able to open a portal for the Fear Child thanks to their fans viewing the livestream.; Luckily, the girls stopped them just in time by working together, closing the Fear Child's portal as it was about to pass through. Luna Snow then froze the defeated evil band inside a block of ice which was left at a nearby Roxxon Gas Station for the authorities to apprehend.

+History:
+The Defenders were proposed as a super-human, counter-revolutionary force that would serve the interests of the Maker's Council by stopping the growing global resistance movement of the Ultimates. Emmanuel da Costa—the Black King of the Hellfire Club and CEO of the Society of South America—was supposed to organize it. However, the project was delayed because he used the super-heroic catalysts that the Maker had stolen to erase the Heroic Age on himself.; By February 2026, the world had succumbed to World War III. The Ultimates sparked a massive uprising across the North American Union that gained slow but steady momentum. This was largely thanks to the Avengers, led by Luke Cage—a former convict and bulletproof abolitionist. In response, the Black King and his fellow Council members amassed resources to unite individuals from their territories and form a fully realized group of Defenders.; The Defenders' big premiere as a team would also be their last. Livestreamed on all platforms for everyone to see, they intercepted the Avengers in Atlanta, Georgia—a city they had just liberated—and were killed.

+Transportation: Initially a starship provided by Thanos, then the escape pod of that same ship.
+Notes: Thanos also considered Juggernaut, Ultron, Venom, Deathbird, and Darkseid for the team.; All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z Vol 1 11 (Thanos' profile) says Thanos resurrected Geatar to have him in the defenders
+History:
+When the ancient death god Walker intended to kill Death, Thanos decided to protect her and, seeking knowledge, learned of the Oracle of Ancient Knowledge, a robot created by a long dead civilization from an alternate timeline, created as a storehouse of immense data; due to its almost-inifite knowledge, it had come to be worshipped by a religious order from the planet H'aarg, where it was protected in a Monastery, including a protective shield. Thanos decided to delegate this quest, uninteresting to him, so as to devote his time to other pursuits, and considered several beings he could recruit, discording Annihilus, Darkseid, Deathbird, Juggernaut, Ultron, and Venom. He instead chose, as his team of "secret defenders":; Kl'rt, the Super-Skrull, with the extraordinary powers of the Fantastic Four and a honor code he could use; The Titanium Man was chosen because of his technology, especially advanced in his culture, and his blinding ideology. The Titanium Man was by then considered a hero in his country, working with his peers, but Thanos teleported him into space during a battle against revolutionaries in Omsk.; Nitro, with useful explosive powers but greedy and irascible, had been sent to jail after being betrayed by his ally Kickback while fighting Luke Cage. Thanos teleported Nitro out of prison.; Rhino was known as an almost-unstoppable, yet far from bright, bruiser. He was trying to make amends by helping his family, thou his mother was aghast at his criminal ways. Thanos teleported him to space too.; Lastly, Thanos found Geatar's corpse, killed long ago, drifting through space, and resurrected him or cloned him to use him as strategist of his team. Geatar was the only minion Thanos did not put in stasis automatically when teleporting them. Geatar, a staunch follower of Nebula, agreed to lead Thanos' team of "defenders" in exchange of Thanos not going after Nebula; Thanos them awoke the other "defenders", but Kl'rt immediately attacked Thanos, for Thanos had betrayed him in their previous collaboration. Thanos overpowered the Skrull easily, and Geatar convinced the other three to not try to escape, threatening to fight them and kill at least one, with the others having to face Thanos.; Thanos briefed the defenders on their mission to retrieve (capture) the Oracle from H'aarg, not telling them the Oracle was a robot, and falsely claiming that the Oracle was preparing for an universal holy war that neither Thanos nor the Skrull civilization desire, and that the Order had technological knowledge that the Titanium Man coveted, and riches that Nitro and Rhino could keep. Their goal would be to disable the security around the Oracle to reach it. Thanos gave the team a baffler-equipped starship to reach the planet undetected and bypass the protective shield, never mentioning that he had sabotaged the vehicle so that it would self-destruct shortly after touchdown, stranding the defenders in H'aarg for Thanos intended to betray them.; Once the group landed on H'aarg, Kl'rt challenged Geatar, who responded by readying his weapon, but Rhino talked them out of the way. The group left the ship and attacked the Monastery, engaging the monks, but the monks outnumbered and delayed the defenders. The group reached the sanctum, where Kl'rt held the monks back with a force field; there they faced a giant robot programmed to protect the Oracle. The robot, claiming that no one had ever breached its defenses, mauled and injured Nitro, but Titanium Man managed to electrocute the robot to disable it. The group found the Oracle, who revealed herself to be a robot and, using short-range electrical attacks, severely wounded Nitro. Rhino severed the cables connecting the Oracle to its power source, deactivating it. Now that the group had triumphed and nullified H'aarg's defenses, Thanos teleported into the same room to take the Oracle, acknowledging that he had lied to his defenders about the potential bounties and that his ship would already be destroyed. Thanos teleported away with the Oracle, abandoning the defenders. Once again betrayed by Thanos, Kl'rt was particularly angry, as was Rhino.; Geatar took command of the group, offering to work together to find a way out. He initially led the defenders to the desert where the ship had docked, to see if they could salvage at least part of it. Rhino carried Nitro. Kl'rt protected the group with a force field, and they considered the advantages of going into space protected by such a field; but Kl'rt was severely wounded and, although he was rescued by Rhino and Geatar, Kl'rt could not contribute in this way: neither he nor Nitro were conscious. While Geatar and Rhino held off the monks, the Titanium Man repaired the ship's escape pod and used his armor to boost it into space, with the rest of the group inside, but warned that they would be depleted of reserves and adrift. The plan worked and they were safe from the monks, but soon Rhino was unconscious due to low levels of oxygen. With little more than a log and a distress beacon, the group nearly died adrift. Fortunately they were found and rescued by the Silver Surfer and Legacy, who took them to an asteroid and generated oxygen with their powers. Geatar initially resented the Surfer because he was an enemy of Nebula, and even attacked him, but surrendered in exchange for the Surfer healing his allies. Nitro, recognizing elements of Mar-Vell's uniform in the young Legacy, and knowing that Mar-Vell had died because of him, deviously warned Legacy of the dangers of being a hero. The Surfer demanded that Geatar be arrested for his previous crimes; Kl'rt objected, but Geatar, while grateful to his Skull comrade, asked him not to intervene, in part because Legacy would then take Geatar to the prison Nebula was at, on Titan. This earned Geatar even more respect from Kl'rt. The Surfer offered to take Nitro, Rhino, and the Titanium Man to Earth, but Nitro, claiming there was little left for him on Earth, instead ask for fuel for the lifepod so they could explore deep space; the Surfer accepted. While the Super-Skrull returned to the service of Empress S'Byll, the Surfer indeed returned the Titanium Man and Rhino to Earth (where they resumed their previous careers), while Nitro set off to Hala in a failed attempt to find old Kree allies of him; he was later returned to Earth.; As for Thanos, he extracted the Oracle's knowledge using her technology and thus learned of Tyrant, a rogue creation of Galactus, which led him to recruit Terrax and Ganymede to assault Tyrant, and in that fight obtain one of the power Tyrant's works, from which he gained extraordinary knowledge.

+When the Defenders' associate Dollar Bill created a documentary about the team and aired it on television without their permission, it attracted a crowd of super heroes who were interested in joining the group. They were interested in joining because of the Defenders' lack of rules and loose formation. This led to a disaster as the large assembly of different personalities often clashed and the poor leadership of the crowd (led by long-standing Defenders Nighthawk, Valkyrie and Hellcat). Their first and last mission was against a team of super villains (Led by Libra and Sagittarius) who had joined together. The villains also called themselves the Defenders, using the publicity of Dollar Bill's documentary to give the Defenders a bad name.; Although they managed to defeat the villains, the experience proved to be so haphazard, and disorganized that all the "Defenders for the Day" quit.

A group led by Hercules battled Sagittarius' team until Hellcat knocked them out with a mental burst.

Machinesmith also supplied the unsuspecting Mesmero with advanced equipment, transportation, and secret base in the desert. Mesmero used this equipment to send out a signal that controlled and summoned latent mutants to him. One of these latent mutants was Lorna Dane, who was saved from walking blindly into traffic by Iceman of the X-Men. Iceman took her back to the apartment he shared with the Beast, where a quick shower revealed her green hair. Mesmero then sent some Demi-Men to retrieve Lorna Dane from the X-Men because he believed she was the daughter of Magneto. The Demi-Men were able to succeed in this task and took Lorna back to their base where Mesmero used an apparatus to trigger her powers. Thinking she might be Magneto's daughter Lorna considered joining them.The X-Men attacked the Demi-Men's base and after a series of events, including Cyclops pretending to a character named Erik the Red, they defeated the Demi-Men and blew up the base. The Demi-Men have not been seen since.

+History:
+One night, Misty Knight stopped some mercenaries from smuggling ancient Asgardian artifacts, though they manage to get away with their primary target. Misty took the recovered artifacts to Dr. Annabelle Riggs, who was excavating a viking burial site and inadvertently awakened the dead vikings with one the artifacts. Misty battled the vikings and was soon joined by Valkyrie, who sensed the commotion. When the fight was over, Valkyrie agreed to take Annabelle and Misty to Asgardia to seek council on the matter.; The mercenaries kidnapped Dani Moonstar and brought her to Caroline Le Fay, who wanted to become a Valkyrie like Dani. In Asgardia, the All-Mother explained to Valkyrie, Misty, and Annabelle that the dead Vikings signalled the return of the Doom Maidens: corrupted Valkyries, who come to fill the void left by Valkyrie's inability to assemble a new Valkyrior. Hela, aware of the Doom Maidens' return, brought Hippolyta from the Underworld to help set things right.; The All-Mother teleported Valkyrie, Misty, Annabelle, and Hippolyta to Harrowpoint Island, Washington, where Caroline le Fey had taken Dani Moonstar to use her in a ritual to summon the Doom Maidens. Once inside le Fey's chamber, the heroes discovered that the Doom Maidens had already arrived. During the subsequent battle, Annabelle managed to free Dani before the Doom Maidens halted their fighting, recognizing Valkyrie as their "sister".; The heroes retreated to Misty's safe house in New York City as the Doommaidens gave chase. There, Valkyrie had a vision from long ago of herself leading an attack on Odin. Valkyrie decided to take Dani and Hippolyta and lead the Doommaidens away from the city, while Misty and Annabelle called Heroes for Hire for help.; ===Age of Ultron===; Wolverine (Logan) and Invisible Woman (Sue Storm) tried to assassinate Ultron's creator, Henry Pym to prevent Ultron from taking over the world. In the divergent timeline created by Pym's death, Morgan le Fay and her husband Dr. Doom conquered half the planet. Le Fey and Doom's daughter, Caroline, recruited Hippolyta to seek revenge for abandoning her as a child. In Latveria, Caroline and Hippolyta discovered that Doom had died and was replaced by Ares, Hippolyta's father. Hippolyta defeated Ares and took back command of the Amazons, who were subdued by him.; ===Post-Age of Ultron===; In Descanso de Deus, Brazil, Valkyrie, Hippolyta, and Moonstar ascended to a mountaintop mesa littered with stone carvings that mark an arena. They soon confronted Caroline Le Fay, Mr. Raven, and the Doom Maidens astride their demonic dragons, which douse the three with hellfire before Hippolyta heaves a stone carving at one of the dragons, knocking it out of the sky. The Doom Maidens dismount and attack, and Valkyrie, Hippolyta, and Moonstar fended them off before realizing that they were outnumbered. Moments later, Misty and Annabelle arrived on the scene with a battalion of superheroes, including Hellcat, Tigra, Black Cat, Spider-Woman, She-Hulk, Elektra, Storm, Thundra, Tarantula, Black Widow, Captain Marvel, and Colleen Wing.; The heroes launched themselves into the fight and managed to subdue the Doom Maidens, even as Thundra questioned Annabelle's continued presence. In the midst of the fighting, Moonstar spotted Caroline and confronted her, fighting and subduing Mr. Raven before Caroline explained that Moonstar is "the battery" that powers the ritual to awaken the Doom Maidens. She then explained that Valkyrie brought Moonstar to Brazil in order to power the Valkyrie's transformation into the maiden of rage. Valkyrie then transformed and destroyed Hermotha, leaving She-Hulk to prepare to battle the newly awakened Maiden of Rage.

+History:
+===Evolution stopped===; A billion years ago, the Demon Lords of Stasis ruled their planet with an iron fist. Their worst fear being Progress, they performed a great rite in order to stop the planet's evolution.; ===The Messiah and the Lights===; The rite proved to be effective, until the emerging of the Phoenix Messiah who gathered five acolytes, the Lights. All of them were powered beings, but their origins are unknown.; Together, they waged rebellion against the Lords of Stasis, and at last, the Phoenix Force came to them, and they communed, although the Demon Lords fought to prevent that union from happening.; ===Evolution restarted===; The spell was broken by the Five and One and the Phoenix Force, and the Demons were swept away.; The whole history was witnessed by the alien peace-keeping robot Unit, who intended to witness a billion years later a variant of that story by observing Hope Summers, the Mutant Messiah, without her own Lights.

+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Manhattan
+Notes: The closest thing this team had to an official coming into being was Daredevil simply suggesting they actively worked together in Defenders Vol 5 1. By Defenders Vol 5 4, they were already apparently known as the Defenders.
+Trivia: This team was created ahead of the premiere of the Netflix show Marvel's The Defenders, which featured a version of the Defenders that consisted of Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist.; The members of this team had previously been written by Brian Michael Bendis in New Avengers Vol 2.
+History:
+When the trio of heroes Daredevil, Iron Fist and Luke Cage interfered with the operations of rising crime lord Diamondback, they were dealt heavy blows in return. As they were looking for leads on Diamondback together with Luke's wife Jessica Jones, Daredevil noticed it could help people know that they actively worked together. They continued operating as a team to investigate Diamondback, and eventually became known as the Defenders.; When Luke came alone for Diamondback, he was almost killed when Stryker used toxic dust on him. The Defenders retaliated and ambushed Diamondback at the Club Ultimate. Though hurt, Diamondback escaped, displaying previously unseen superhuman strength and speed. Diamondback was finally defeated by Iron Fist when Stryker attacked him and Jessica while they were on a stake-out. Stryker was arrested but escaped while being transported. The Defenders tracked him down and defeated him even though he had ingested the power-bestowing drug Diamond, leading to Diamondback's second arrest.; Shortly afterwards, the entirety of Manhattan became trapped below a Darkforce dome cast by Hydra as part of their plan to neutralize the American superhero community when they took over the United States. The Defenders were among the heroes fighting tooth and nail to fend off against Darkforce demons and assist the inhabitants of the island with the diminishing resources available. When the Darkforce dome was finally destroyed, the Defenders joined the last stand against Hydra in Washington, D.C. after which the heroes eventually triumphed.; The Defenders then were present at Diamondback's trial, from which he walked away free thanks to a lawyer provided by his secret backer, the former Kingpin of crime Wilson Fisk. Jessica enlisted Deadpool's help to find Diamondback while Daredevil interrogated Elektra Natchios, who had returned to New York hired by yet another mysterious party to find Stryker. After subduing the Punisher, who was spying on the team, and beating up Deadpool over his usual shenanigans, the Defenders learned The Hood had entered the race to become the new Kingpin. The Defenders confronted Diamondback outside a club he had taken over from Hammerhead, and he revealed he had gathered a group of superhumans on his own to rival the Defenders, these villains were the Fixer, Titania and Moonstone. Luke Cage went toe-to-toe against Dimaondback while the rest of the Defenders defeated the supervillains. Stryker was finally taken down by the Black Cat, who shot him repeatedly in the back with an automatic rifle, though she didn't kill him.; With Stryker taken care of, the Defenders turned their attention to The Hood, who had seized Diamondback's operations following his defeat. Thanks to intel provided by the Black Cat, the Defenders attacked The Hood in his own penthouse, but he managed to fend them off before escaping. In preparation for their next encounter against Robbins, the Defenders gathered numerous allies, and attacked him while he was holding a meeting with other supervillains he wanted to draw into an alliance. At some point afterward, the Defenders disbanded.

+History:
+The Defenders of the Deep were established by King Namor of Atlantis to accomodate to his new policies regarding relationships between the ocean and the surface world. Namor declared the oceans off-limits to all but their native inhabitants, and used the Defenders of the Deep to drive off any human presence on the ocean.; After tearing down Russian submarines in the Black Sea, the Defenders of the Deep attacked the international undersea research station Hydropolis. They were intercepted by the Avengers, and a fight broke out after the heroes attacked Namor's Piranhas to stop them from eating two bystanders despite Namor ordering them to stand down. The Winter Guard arrived to retaliate against the attack on the Black Sea, and worked with the Avengers to take down Namo's team. During the fight, Manowar was killed by Crimson Dynamo. However, tensions between the Avengers and the Winter Guard arose after She-Hulk attacked Perun and Chernobog to stop their in-fighting. While the Avengers and the Winter Guard fought each other, Namor killed the Piranhas due to their continued misconduct and ordered the Defenders to retreat.; The Defenders of the Deep next attacked a Roxxon oil drilling platform in Alaska, but they were repelled by the Squadron Supreme of America, at the expense of Orka.; Namor resented using Atlantis' "most unsavory elements" to defend his people. He consequently decided to call the Phoenix Force. The Defenders of the Deep escorted Namor as he came to welcome the Phoenix Force at Avengers Mountain, having them keep the Avengers at bay. Namor was teleported to a tournament in the White Hot Room, while the Defenders remained at Avengers Mountain, still facing the Avengers yet without attacking. The Defenders and Avengers eventually resumed fighting, until Namor was beaten and the Phoenix claimed by Echo (Maya Lopez).<!-- some of the Defenders turned their back on Namor but King Crab not pictured, others are seen with him in King in Black: Namor #3,; Accosting Avengers Mountain; Echidna, Bloodtide; Andromeda?

+History:
+The Doom Squad was formed by Doctor Doom. Four of the best soldiers in the Latverian Army were provided with high-tech armors, designed by Doom himself "to defeat the Fantastic Four." Only one Doom Squad was formed, with supposedly fearless troopers who were trained and familiarized with the armors. They were even known in Latveria.; The armors were first used in Doom's Adirondack Mountains castle, New York State, under the command of a Doombot they believed to be Doom himself. The X-Men were infiltrating the castle supposedly to release a prisoner; but the Doombot, expecting this, emptied the cell and alerted the Squad. The Squad fought against Wolverine, Colossus, Angel, and Nightcrawler.; Under the leadership of Angel, the X-Men's teamwork was enough to defeat the less-resourceful Squad: The Angel was entangled by a Squad member, but he flew away so that the armored warrior was as imprisoned as he was, giving Wolverine a chance to rip away his armor. Another Squad member trapped Nightcrawler in his net, but Nightcrawler tricked this man and his partner to shoot each other while he teleported away. The last survivor, aghast, decided to retreat, but the Doombot noticed that and decided to punish him.; The armors were never tested against the Fantastic Four, as was intended.

+Notes: This team is based on an alternate reality, where this group would continue and become the "1950s" Avengers.
+History:
+In the late 1950's, President Eisenhower was kidnapped by Golden Claw. The U.S. Government let FBI Special Agent Jimmy Woo forge a special rescue team of unlikely heroes. Woo reviewed his files on active super-beings and instinctively selected a roster that came to him in a dream: Gorilla Man, Venus, Marvel Boy and aquatic heroine Namora. Namora declined to join the mission but found a replacement by helping Woo salvage the lost Human Robot.; Meshing smoothly as a team, Woo's "Department Zero" rescued Eisenhower and accomplished various other missions, repeatedly clashing with Atlas Foundation agents and pawns such as the mutated canine cosmonaut Laika; however, U.S. authorities ultimately decided the world was not ready for such bizarre heroes and disbanded the group, declaring their missions classified and records of their activities sealed.; In 1958, during the Cuban revolution, Logan finds himself entrenched in a covert mission in Cuba, surveilling the revolutionaries Fidel Castro and Che Guevara with his partner Hendricks. However, when communication with Hendricks is abruptly severed, Logan's solitude is shattered by the sudden appearance of unexpected allies: Jimmy Woo, Gorilla Man , and the enigmatic M-11. Their claim to be FBI agents doesn't quite add up, especially when faced with a talking gorilla. Tensions escalate swiftly as Gorilla Man attempted to apprehend Logan, only for the wily mutant to slip free and launch a vicious attack on Jimmy Woo.; Shockingly, Logan draws blood with his blade, but the true nature of the threat becomes apparent when a monstrous insect emerges from Woo's neck. With grim realization, the group recognizes the insidious danger posed by Yellow Claw's mind-controlling bugs. Determined to uncover the extent of the threat, Woo sends the deceased insect to Marvel Boy and Venus for analysis, while extending a reluctant apology to Logan for the misunderstanding. Their uneasy alliance leads them to Hendricks, only to discover him under the sway of the very creatures they've been combating. Faced with the grim reality of irreversible mind control, Logan is forced to make a gut-wrenching decision, swiftly killing his infected partner. The act sparks dissent among the group, with Woo urging Logan to join Department Zero for debriefing. Refusing to be bound by anyone's agenda, Logan triggers planted explosives and vanishes into the jungle, leaving the agents behind. As the Agents of Atlas depart from Cuba, unaware of the sinister reach of Yellow Claw's influence, the shadow of impending doom looms large, with the revelation that even the leaders of the Cuban revolution may have fallen prey to the mind-controlling bugs.; Members of this group would later go on to re-form as the Agents of Atlas.

But one day, on a journey through space, they saw something in the depths of space that changed and corrupted them, and they returned to Earth as monstrosities, having become the embodiments of carrion, slaughter, rage, filth, vermin, deceit, insanity, torture and seduction. They rampaged across the Nine Realms, slaying gods and mortals alike, defeating and killing the Frost Giant Jarls of Jotunheim, the ancient warmongers of Breakworld, and the Tuatha de Danaan of Ireland. They also once faced the Amazons. Eventually, Odin stopped them; When the threat of the Asgardian Doom Maidens loomed once more, Asgardian death goddess Hela assembled the Gods of the Dead, calling in every favor from the other death gods and goddesses, and promising nearly anything for their assistance if they would resurrect Hippolyta, queen of the Amazons, who had once battled the Doom Maidens. The Gods of the Dead agreed to Hela's terms and resurrected Hippolyta.

+History:
+Dog Company was an infantry unit within the United States Army that participated in campaigns in Europe and Africa during World War II and fought heavily in Korea during the Korean War. The unit was under the command of Captain Rocke. Its two most well known members were Henry "Combat" Casey and Penny P. Pennington. Other members of the unit include tank enthusiast Buggsy, Georgie who still believed in Santa Claus, and Apache American Roanhorse.; The earliest recorded mission of Dog Company occurred in North Africa sometime in 1943 they clashed with Nazi forces. Most of Dog Company's missions during the war took place in the South Pacific where the unit liberated Futsu Island and later rescued Captain Rocke from enemy soldiers on an unspecified atoll. Dog Company also helped liberate Yoku atoll.; Dog Company was reformed by Captain Rocke during the Korean War, including Combat and Penny among his troops once again. Their first recorded mission was when Combat, Penny, and a tank enthusiast named Buggsie used an enemy tank to attack enemy forces. The unit then sabotaged enemy shells in order to get past artillery guns, then defended a Korean town from being burned down by communist forces. In another clash they detonated a bridge to keep enemy forces from following, later destroying a dam the enemy built on a river to try and get away. Later they used weather balloons as a means of crossing over land mines to capture an enemy force they were after. They then came to the aid of another town that were being robbed by communist troops. Using sheep skins to disguise themselves, Combat, Penny and Dog Company capture the enemy forces in the act. Later thanks to training from Apache American solider Roanhorse, Combat and Penny were able to use smoke signals to warn Dog Company of an enemy attack. Combat later prevented Dog Company from being lured into a trap in the town of Kumchow set by communist forces. During an influential battle along the border between the North and South Korea, Combat and Penny discovered Major Mung's plans to build a giant dragon effigy to scare South Korean soldiers, and helped the South Koreans in constructing an even larger dragon against the one constructed by their communist foes. Later the pair were able to capture important plans from the North Korean army, using a K-9 dog to get the plans to Dog Company.

+History:
+In Earth-74924, Doctor Doom recruited two new members for the Doom Squad, provided them with battlesuits and assigned them to the New York City Latverian Embassy. Their first mission came when Doom's enemy Andro, Lord of Androids started a campaign against Doom in New York. Doom reacted with a mission to find Andro's secret base, sending his robot Silent Stalker after Andro. The Doom Squad would protect the Stalker from any real or perceived threat while the Stalker focused on tracking Andro (but the Stalker would react if directly attacked).; The Doom Squad, being bullies, were eager to test their armors in real conditions. Thus, while the Stalker relentlessly advanced through the streets, the Squad pushed away any bystander in its way, causing fear in the population. This attracted the attention of some superheroes, who went to confront these strangers.; During the fight, one Squad member knocked over a car, that caught fire, and disregarded the two people inside the vehicle. Also during the fight, a motorcyclist was so scared that crashed against a scaffolding in a building. Two workers in the fourth floor were left in an unsteady situation.

The Black Widow aided Daredevil in the fight, however she overtaxed herself due to her injuries sustained battling the Man-Bull and had to sit out the fight. Daredevil battled each of the Disciples one-on-one defeating them all until he faced the Dark Messiah. Finally recognizing him as the street performer Mordecai Jones, Daredevil confronted him with this truth. The Dark Messiah denied this, and such denial caused a backlash of his powers, that exploded seemingly destroying himself and his followers, although Daredevil survived the explosion.

+Trivia: The Dirty Angels are a pastiche of Dirty Pair.
+History:
+The Dirty Angels are a pair of police officers, Rico and Kay, on Earth-9019. They are assigned to traffic duty, and pull over Captain Britain, Widget and Kitty as they ride in the recently rebuilt Orz-1 racecar. They investigated the death of Brian Braddock on their Earth, suspecting Jamie Braddock but never proving it. When Captain Britain tells them Jamie has kidnapped Meggan, they take the opportunity to try and arrest him, ramming their car through the wall of the Pitte Stoppe hotel. However, Rico ends up destroying after accidentally nudging the trigger of her anti-matter cannon, despite Kay telling her not to arm it, and they have to flee. They are chased by an angry mob, but after Kay seduces Alistaire, he hides them under the train while he sends the mob on a wild goose chase. At first, they think Nightcrawler is a demon when he comes out of the darkness, but he seduces them and they stop trying to shoot him. They aid Excalibur in flying their train in to attack Jamie Braddock. They land it on top of him, and as on Earth-616, Kitty sends that Jamie Braddock to bed, this Jamie Braddock disappears along with the town and the Dirty Angels, apparently a figment of that Jamie’s imagination.

+History:
+The Destroyers were originally five slain US Soldiers that were resurrected and empowered through infernal energies by Project Hellfire. Their bodies were outfitted with cybernetics and weaponry fueled by this pandemonium essence to serve as a new class of super soldiers for the US Government. Upon activation, the Destroyers went berserk, with one of them immediately committing suicide and the other four killing many personnel throughout the Pentangle and Pentagon. They were stopped by Hellverine, who managed to kill one of them before all parties disappeared following a destructive battle.; One of the Destroyers, Peter Marmon, attempted to reunite with his family at his former home but was stopped by Wolverine, who had been tracking the Destroyers in order to find Hellverine, his son. As Marmon was still unstable since his resurrection, Wolverine was forced to kill him to protect Marmon's wife and daughter from him. Meanwhile, Harms sent a hellhound and some of his soldiers to follow Wolverine but when the soldiers lost control of the asset which then tried to kill Marmon's family, the two remaining Destroyers appeared to kill it and the adjacent soldiers.; Meanwhile, the Destroyers former commanding officer in life, Lieutenant Colonel Leon Townsend, recognized his former squad on television and confronted Dr. Spivey and General Harms at the Pentagle. Townsend demanded that they turn him into a Destroyer so that he could convince them to stand down. Despite Townsend still being alive, General Harms agreed with his request, as he needed the Destroyers back in control to prevent Project Hellfire from being shut down. When Harms secretly met with the Secretary of State, who had privately funded the Destroyers, two of which ambushed them with one of the augmented killing the Secretary. Hellverine showed up and slew his murderer but failed to stop the remaining one as Harms grievously wounded him with a holy water laced bullet.; The last Destroyer, Corporal Jamie Doeden, fled to Nationals Park where he was found by the converted Townsend who was able to help him regain his sanity. Doeden and Townsend aided Hellverine and Wolverine kill Harms when he attempted to summon a demonic invasion within the US Government. Afterwards, Daken decided to leave Project Hellfire under the control of Spivey and the remaining Destroyers.; When the disembodied parts of the Hell Hulk that emerged on Earth caused those within range of its effects to fall into uncontrollable murderous rages, the Destroyers (consisting of just Townsend and Doeden) and Hellverine were sent to locate and extract the demon's body parts to protect the populace from its corruption. After the Hell Hulk was reassembled, the new chief analyst Severith betrayed Project Hellfire and awakened its creation, resulting in him destroying the Pentangle and nearly killing the cyborgs alongside their handlers. However, they were able to recover from their injuries but were ordered by the Pentagon to remain at base. When the Hellverine left to confront Severith and the hellish giant at the Devil's Backbone, the Destroyers and Aurora joined up with him and succeeded in preventing a demonic invasion.

+History:
+The Dragon Lords of Kakarantharnia were a group of Makluans who had become bored of the tranquility of their peaceful world. Taking a massive starship, they headed to the stars. In search of exciting worlds, ones of war, violence, and destruction.; Hearing about Earth, they headed to the most violent world in the Milky Way. On their way, cosmic radiation penetrated their shields and damaged their star drive. The shipship crashed into Earth, in ancient China. Where it wiped out a town and burrowed deep into the Earth. Prior to crashing, the captain and 9 of his crew divested themselves of the rings which focused the energies into the ship's control functions. Which were set upon the central control dias. So that if necessary, a single survivor could harness the power to control the ship. Upon emerging from the Earth where the starship borrowed, one of them was slain by a Chinese mounted warrior. The remaining fifteen fled from the valley (valley of dragons) using the morning mists as cover.; It took them a long time to learn how to take human form and it endure it. Five more of the crew died, before they took human forms. Though they wore that form grudgingly at first, they came to appreciate the human arts of bloodshed and destruction. In time they likewise came to learn the power in manipulating human wealth. 3,000 years later, Chen Hsu their captain taught the Mandarin, teaching him how to use the rings, and helped him conquer a third of China. He then sent a telepathic call to the rest of the crew, who were scattered across Asia. They answered his call, reverting to their dragon forms and taking flight. Some of them had not seen each other in centuries. Joyous shots filled their minds, great was the jubilation as they headed back the Valley of the Dragons. Upon their arrival in the Valley of the Dragons, they roared as once and the mountains trembled.; They reverted to human form, when meeting the Mandarin and Iron Man (who was actually James Rhodes. As the rings no longer fit their dragon fingers, since they continued to grow and therefore doubled and then tripled their size, they had to take human form. The Dragon Lords wanted to bring about their rule over Earth, and demanded that the Mandarin turn over his rings to them. In exchange for his service, they offered him wonders and infinite pleasures. The Mandarin defied him, and resisted their attempt to force the rings of his hands. He attacked the Dragon Lords and upon Iron Man's arrival, it was the latter who fought the dragons. James Rhodes in his Iron Armor suit attempted to help and was blown far away. The battle between the Dragon Lords and Iron Man seesawed back and forth, and then the Mandarin who had stepped away from the battle, returned to the fight in earnest. When Iron Man pushed his suit's power into the rings, a great nuclear explosion was the result and the Dragon Lords appeared to have been vaporized.

It is unclear when exactly the realm was formed, or if it had simply always existed.; Sometime during the last years of the Ming Dynasty (circa 1640), China was overrun by "The Roaming King", Li-Tzu Ch’eng. A group of monks, Xiandu, A'yin, Barak, and Ra'al, in vengeance for the fall of the Ming Dynasty, sought out the "Covenant of the Ebon Vein", and were inducted on the promise that China would be freed from its oppressors. The four of them tasted the Crimson Dawn and were transformed. During the night, A'yin, Barak and Ra'al were corrupted by the Crimson Dawn's powers and murdered Xiandu. They were transformed into the Dragons of the Crimson Dawn, and Xiandu would roam Earth as a spirit for centuries to come.; The misplaced Dragons of the Crimson Dawn found themselves in the Wildways, the home of Spiral, and forced her to join them and taste the elixir herself. She fought the Dawn's influence, but was forced to teleport the Dragons to Earth. They appeared in London, attacking Captain Britain and his fiancé Meggan. The Dragons kidnapped Captain Britain and traveled to Hong Kong, where they intended to use him to breach the walls between Earth and the Crimson Dawn.; Spiral was able to alert Captain Britain's teammates, the group known as Excalibur, to the Dragons' plans, and the spirit of Xiandu also aided the team, namely Meggan, by guiding her. Meggan was able to help Brian, and together the couple managed to stop the Dragon's plans, though Brian was left powerless for some time afterwards.

+History:
+===Origins===; During Queen Nehanda's reign, one of her servants, Adwoma, heard about a ploy to poison the queen, so she stepped in during the meal to stop her from eating, successfully saving the queen's life. After this, Adwoma became the first of the Queen's personal guard, the Dora Milaje, who came to include one barren woman from every tribe.; During Benhazin's reign, the Dora Milaje initiations were opened to all women of all tribes, which caused their numbers to triple, as tribes felt it was the opportunity to have one of their own become the queen. Even though Benhazin never consorted with the Dora, they forever came to be seen as potential wives for the king.; Eventually, it was settled that every five years, every tribe would send their most worthy women between the age of 15 and 20 so they could be selected to become a Dora Milaje.; ===Hiatus===; Once, King T'Chaka decided to tour the Borderlands and brought his son, T'Challa, with him as part of his training. Also accompanying were, as usual, the Dora Milaje. When T'Challa wandered off and got lost, the king sent the Dora after him, but after hours of looking, they were unable to find him, so the king disbanded the team.; When King Regent S'Yan reinstated the Dora, its former captain, Zola, was not allowed back in since she was the one in charge when the prince was lost. Instead, she was tasked with creating a training facility that would give the Dora a more formal training.; ===Nakia and Okoye===; Nakia and Okoye were two teenagers who became Dora Milaje during T'Challa's reign. Okoye understood that her king only viewed them as bodyguards, but Nakia dreamed of winning the king's love. When T'Challa was manipulated into passionately kissing Nakia while under the influence of Mephisto's illusions, it only fueled the girl's obsession. After Monica Lynne re-entered T'Challa's life, Nakia's jealousy caused her to eject Lynne from a fighter plane during a war, and she was expelled from the order of the Dora Milaje. In the months to come, Nakia was revived by Erik Killmonger and became an obsessive stalker of T'Challa, as well as his allies, under the alias of Malice.; ===Queen Divine Justice===; Okoye was later joined by a new recruit in the Dora Milaje: Chanté Giovanni Brown, of Chicago. The princess of the outlawed Jabari tribe, the worshipers of the White Gorilla, Chante had been exiled to the United States of America during the tribal warfare that killed her parents. She only learned of her Wakandan heritage when T'Challa approached her and inducted her into the Dora Milaje; however, it was still several months before T'Challa explained the circumstances of her parents' death.; ===Civil War===; Over time, the order of the Dora Milaje expanded considerably, with more than 12 active participants from the various tribes. Their service continued even after T'Challa's marriage to the mutant Storm.; During the Civil War, the Dora Milaje assisted T'Challa on a few occasions, on their quality of bodyguards. When Storm and T'Challa visited the White House, an incident led the Dora Milaje to battle War Machine and his Sentinels, and they were subsequently researched by the U.S. government.; Later, T'Challa intended to meet Captain America in order to organize the resistance against the Superhuman Registration Act, but was followed by the Black Widow. To get rid of her, T'Challa let two Dora Milaje confront her.; Iron Man and the Cape-Killers came to the Wakandan Embassy in order to arrest the Dora Milaje who had attacked War Machine, but were denied access to the embassy by Storm.; ===Dark Reign===; After a fight with Doctor Doom which cost the lives of two Dora Milaje and handicapped him for a time, T'Challa decided to initiate a specialized fighting style for the Dora so they could better perform against robots and magic, which were Doom's primary weapons in battle. T'Challa set up a final test, which was a real fight, during which two Dora Milaje died among the 30 candidates.; ===Doomwar===; When Doom tried to take over Wakanda, the Dora Milaje paid a large tribute, with 500 Doras against the 80,000 soldiers of the Wakandan Army and the Wakandan Navy. They then were used as Shuri's army to destroy Doom's global network. T'Challa intended to kill Doom, sending Deadpool and a commando of Dora Milaje known as the Midnight Angels.; ===Infinity===; During the last moments of the war with Thanos the Mad Titan, the Dora Milaje rejected T'Challa, denouncing to Shuri the meetings of her brother with Namor while war was declared on Atlantis following Namor's attack against Wakanda while he was under the influence of the Phoenix Force. They broke their spears symbolically and fully came under the orders of Queen Shuri.; <!-- ===World of Wakanda===; -->; ===A Nation Under Our Feet===; An apparent revolution within the Dora Milaje originated when Ayo and Aneka seemingly stole two prototypes of the Midnight Angel Armor and defected from Black Panther's regime. Believing that Wakanda deserved a better government, Ayo and Akena began to liberate oppressed Wakandans that they believed the crown had neglected for too long, starting with a bandit compound in Northern Wakanda that captured women, and rallied them, including Mbali.; When the village where the Midnight Angels and the women that they had liberated were staying was ravaged by the White Gorilla Army forces of the Jabari-Lands, they fought back, becoming an army of self-proclaimed Dora Milaje. Joined by the Jabari tribesmen and other Dora Milaje, the Midnight Angels killed the White Gorilla, Lord Mandla and took control of the Jabari-Lands, convening tribunals, assembling communes, calling for elections, writing laws, and gaining the support of numerous Jabari tribesmen in the process.; Following the conquest of the Jabari-Lands, the Dora Milaje were offered the support of another rebel force, the People, led by Tetu; however, Ayo and Aneka remained cautious. In spite of this, the Dora Milaje established an alliance with the People after being assisted to fend off an attack from Black Panther's Hatut Zeraze.; When Ezekiel Stane leaked a footage of Jorick Kroawl, former Intelligence Directorate, presenting his violent anti-revolutionary tactics to T'Challa (who had refused to apply them), the strife grew bigger.; Soon, T'Challa attacked the Jabari-Lands to restore order, sending the Hatut Zeraze against them. The attack was thwarted by Zenzi, an ally of Tetu, and her empathic powers. The Hatut Zeraze were then taken as prisoners by the Midnight Angels.; The Midnight Angels and the People later planned to carry out a coordinated attack against the Golden City; however, it resulted in nothing when the Midnight Angels confronted the People for the violent tendencies of their soldiers towards women that had been "liberated". Convinced by Mbali, the Midnight Angels later liberated the Hatut Zeraze they had taken prisoners in order to shown they would not give in to violent methods in order to liberate Wakanda, and to foment empathy among the people of Wakanda. Once she had ended her message, publicly announcing that she had rejected T'Challa and the monarchy, Aneka ran away into the woods, screaming that they had no country anymore, only to face the returned queen, Shuri.; Shuri confronted Aneka, and subsequently Ayo, and asked them to assist Black Panther in defending the Golden City from the upcoming assault carried out by the People. Even though both Dora Milaje leaders opposed the idea of helping the king, Shuri presented the compelling argument that T'Challa was a man of honor, unlike the leader of the People, who surely would not doubt to turn on the Dora Milaje as soon as he had vanquished the crown.; Following the People's defeat in the Golden City, T'Challa held hearings for the Dora Milaje at Birnin Azzaria, during which the Midnight Angels demanded for their lands to be made independent. The elder Changamire made Aneka realize the value of their king, and eventually made peace with him. T'Challa himself set out to form a council to write down a constitution so Wakanda could have a democratic government; one where he would remain the king, but solely as a representative of his people and not as their ruler.; ==Abilities==; The Dora Milaje are extensively trained and highly skilled martial artists with various weapons.; The Dora Milaje are trained in various African martial arts such as Ngolo,Laamb, Musangwe, as well as Muay Thai, Silat, Krav Maga and others, in addition to stick fighting styles such as Nguni (South Africa), Eskrima (Thailand), Kalinda (Trinidad), and Intonga (South Africa).

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Atlantis
+History:
+As time went on, Vyrra tried to keep himself alive through science, but he could only hold off death for so long and wished to return home and be buried in Atlantis. Vyrra formed a plan by which he would exhume Lady Dorma's corpse from her grave and clone her, at which Namor would be so happy to see her he would forgive Vyrra's past mistakes. The clone was perfect and was aged to the appropriate age, but the downside was she had the mind of a newborn. This process was repeated eight times, which left him with a group of mindless clones. This was when some Atlantean scouts discovered one of the clones, and recognized her as their king’s deceased wife.; They then reported back to Namor concerning their unusual discovery. Namor and Namorita traveled to Lady Dorma's grave, only to find it empty. They followed the trail which led them to Vyrra's secret lab. Namor confronted the scientist and forced him to reveal his true intentions and why he created them. Vyrra then accidentally revealed the true origin of Namorita, that she was a clone. Namorita swam from the cave, distraught about her origin, so Namor followed and tried to console his young cousin.; When Namor left, Vyrra realized that he would soon return and destroy his lab. Vyrra used one of machines to transfer his mind into one of the Dorma clones. Killing his old body in the process, Vyrra fled in the new body and hid from sight. Vyrra left a note requesting that his body be buried in Atlantis, which Namor refused out of anger at his actions. This left Vyrra angry at his refusal, and he placed his old body in stasis. All the clones were killed.; Vyrra, in his new body, swam from the cave but came across the Lemurian known as Llyra. He then led her back to his cave, where Llyra was in shock, as she was the one that killed the Lady Dorma. In the cave, Vyrra revealed his true identity and Llyra told the scientist that she was pregnant and needed his help. Llyra's plan was to accelerate the growth of the child to adulthood.; Vyrra then copied Llyra's mind and placed it in the child. Llyra then told Vyrra that she would carry out his request of having his body buried in Atlantis. Vyrra had also secretly transferred his mind into the body as well. The child aged to sixteen years in the matter of minutes, and when the process was done, Llyra snapped the scientist's neck. Llyron, now possessing the minds of both of them, followed Vyrra's last request and buried his body in Atlantis with a suitable monument commemorating his life.

+Species / origin: Bodyguards for the current Black Panther
+Reality: Earth-199999
+Base of operations: Wakanda
+Weapons: Vibranium spears
+Transportation: Hovercraft
+History:
+The Dora Milaje were bodyguards tasked with protecting whoever held the mantle of the Black Panther, usually the king or crown prince of Wakanda. They were typically companions to the Black Panthers on their adventures, such as when T'Chaka apprehended his brother N'Jobu in California, or when T'Challa rescued Nakia from militants in Nigeria. At least one, Ayo, accompanied T'Challa when he traveled to Germany to witness the interrogation of the apparent culprit behind T'Chaka's assassination, the Winter Soldier. Ayo later got between T'Challa and Natasha Romanoff when she tried to approach the new king with an offer until T'Challa told her to stand down.; The Dora Milaje did not abandon their duty when Erik "Killmonger" Stevens became Wakanda's king by seemingly killing T'Challa in ritual combat despite General Okoye's misgivings about Killmonger's plans for Wakanda. However, T'Challa miraculously survived his battle with Killmonger, and returned to resume their duel before Killmonger could disperse Vibranium weapons throughout the outside world. This was all the excuse Okoye needed to turn the Dora Milaje against Killmonger, as he was not rightfully their king until he defeated T'Challa. The Dora Milaje and T'Challa fought Killmonger and the loyal Border Tribe. While T'Challa and Killmonger's fight led them deep into Wakanda's Vibranium mine, the Dora Milaje were soon overwhelmed by the Border Tribe's warriors. They were only saved by the sudden intervention of the Jabari Tribe. The battle ended when the Border Tribe's leader W'Kabi, who was in a romantic relationship with Okoye, surrendered to Okoye after he nearly ran her down with his war rhinoceros.; The Dora Milaje are currently sworn to T'Challa now that he has resumed his place as the Black Panther and Wakanda's king.; The Dora Milaje defended Wakanda alongside the Avengers during Thanos' invasion of Wakanda in order to acquire the Mind Stone from the Vision. After Thanos acquired all six Infinity Stones and eliminated half of all life in the universe, the Dora Milaje remained under the leadership of General Okoye, who joined the remaining Avengers in keeping peace around the world.; Five years after Thanos wiped out half the universe's population, the Avengers underwent a Time Heist to retrieve the Infinity Stones and undo Thanos' actions. Following their success, the Dora Milaje came to the heroes' aid when a past-version of Thanos arrived in their timeline and threatened to wipe out the whole universe. The combined heroic forces were able to ultimately defeat Thanos.; Seven months after the battle, the Dora Milaje tracked down the Winter Soldier, now their ally known as the White Wolf, for he had broken Helmut Zemo, the man responsible for the death of King T'Chaka, out of prison.

+The Wakandan Dora Milaje were sworm to guard and protect the M'kraan Crystal hidden inside the Temple of Inanna in Uruk, Babylon. Shortly before World War II, to interfere with the ongoing Sixth Excavation of Uruk by the Nazi Party, the Wakandans joined with the other Allied powers in order to keep the M'kraan Crystal out of the Nazi hands. Two Wakandans undercover as diplomats from Brazil arranged for "Harry Charles" to pilot Peter Parker and Dr. Huma Bergmann to Berlin. In Berlin they made contact with American agent Byron Ironsides, who directed them to Istanbul. "Harry" flew the pair to the Turkish capital, where they were joined by another agent codenamed "Checkpoint Red".; The four of them proceeded to Uruk, where Huma was revealed to be allied with the Nazis, forcing Harry to reveal herself as a Wakandan Dora Milaje Hu-Ri. With the help of Ironsides she, along with Red and Spider-Man, was able to escape the Nazi ambush and together they proceeded inside the Temple of Inanna. Only one of the Dora Milaje could open the door to the Tomb of Heaven and the M'kraan Crystal, which Huma accomplished by having Electro attack them. Electro threw Hu-Ri and the Cicada Stone at the door and the Stone's energies opened it and exposed the way to the Underworld itself. Huma Bergmann revealed herself to be the Goddess Inanna in the flesh and Hu-Ri and Checkpoint Red attempted to distract her to no success. However, Spider-Man was able to connect the Cicada Stone to the M'kraan Crystal, weakening its structure, after which one well-placed shot destroyed it along with Inanna. Parker, Hu-Ri and Checkpoint Red were later extracted out of Babylon by Ironsides.

+Reality: Multiverse
+Equipment: Reset Charges; Modified TemPads

+History:
+After Judge Gamble, convinced by the Hunter B-15, issued a warning to stop all pruning, Dox expressed concerns about whether the Time-Keepers' warnings were true. Hunter X-05 questioned her about what to do next, which Dox responded by ordering him to look for Sylvie.; Some time later, after Loki has been repaired from his Time Slipping condition, he immediately states that the mission to find Laufeydottir is underway. Meanwhile, both the hunters B-15 and D-90 observe an entire squadron entering a Time Door supposedly determined to find the Laufeydottir as well.; Hunter X-05 abandoned his mission and chose to live in The Sacred Timeline like movie actor Brad Wolfe. After seeing Loki and Mobius, X-05 tries to escape, but is captured and detained in the TVA Office. During his interrogation, X-05 refused to tell Loki and Mobius anything. After they take a break in the cafeteria to cool down, Loki comes up with the idea of pretending to lock Mobius out of the office and using Gizmo to pressure X-05 into admitting that he found Sylvie and that she has built a new life on a branched timeline. Reluctantly leading them to said timeline, X-05 began acting suspicious and nervous, which Mobius noticed and forced him to admit that everyone was in danger. Sylvie then enchanted him and discovered that Dox and her loyalists were planning to prune all the branches.; As Dox's plans were put into action, Loki and Sylvie attacked her loyalists, while Casey and Ouroboros attempted to disarm the Reset Charges. However, even with the loyalists being detained by the TVA, Dox proved successful, managing to eliminate a huge number of branches.; Guided by Gamble, Hunter B-15 approached Dox and her loyalists in their cell and attempted to convince them to help protect the reformed TVA from Renslayer's attacks. After B-15 leaved, Renslayer and Miss Minutes arrived to recruit Dox and her men, everyone resisted, except for Brad Wolfe, who wanted his life in The Sacred Timeline back. Miss Minutes turned on Gizmo and crushed all of Dox's loyalists and herself to death as Miss Minutes watched them die with a psychopathic smile on her face, in contrast to Miss Minutes, Renslayer uncomfortably watched the loyalists' death and Wolfe could barely look to them.

+First appearance: Thor Vol 1 395
+Created by: Tom DeFalco; Ron Frenz
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: A group of intensive care patients who were bestowed amazing superpowers by the Egyptian death god Seth to unwittingly do his bidding.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City
+History:
+Earth Force was born when three individuals from three separate walks of life were fighting for their lives while inside the same New York hospital. The Heliopolitan death god, Seth, brought these mortals to his realm and bestowed upon them the sign of Aton. This special mark gave them incredible powers and they were told they were to be “a force to protect and preserve the Earth.” However, this power was to come at a price: Earth Force was ordered to kill the Asgardian, Hogun, who also happened to be in the same hospital as they were after he was seriously injured in a fight with Daredevil and the police. When Earth Force returned to the hospital, they clashed with Thor who was protecting his fellow Asgardian. Even though Earth Force had Thor beaten, Earth Lord and Wind Warrior felt that they should reevaluate their actions and decided to leave, taking a belligerent Skyhawk with them.; Earth Force returned and asked Thor for redemption after realizing that Seth was evil and merely using them to serve his foul plans. Thor agreed and together they fought the armies of Seth for the liberation of Asgard and the defense of all life everywhere. Earth Force confronted their manipulator, and even though they tried their best, Seth was too powerful for them and he left the three individuals at death’s door once more. After Seth’s ultimate defeat, the Gods of Heliopolis restored the lives of Earth Force and returned them to their hospital beds mere moments after they were kidnapped by Seth. Earth Lord noticed that he still had the glowing sign of Aton in his hand and presumed that Wind Warrior and Skyhawk retained the mark as well.; Earth Force had not been seen until a confrontation between Bloodaxe and Doctor Strange was brought to the attention of police and special task force, Code: Blue. Kyle Brock was among the police officers at the scene, and when no one was looking, he transformed into Earth Lord once more. He sent a silent signal to the other members of Earth Force, and together with Code: Blue, the two teams along with Doctor Strange were able to stop Bloodaxe before any serious damage was done to others.; Following the registration-initiated "Civil War," Skyhawk registered as a superhero with the US government and was apparently assigned to work in Washington state as part of the 50-State Initiative. Whether the other two members of the original Earth Force were assigned there with him, or if they even registered, is unrevealed.; ==Members==; Skyhawk - Winston Manchester was a businessman working in New York, who had been hospitalized. His powers were magically given to him by the Egyptian god, Seth. Skyhawk possesses super strength and the power of flight, by using his powerful underarm-to-ribcage wings.; Earth Lord - Kyle Brock was a police officer from New York who had been shot and hospitalized. Kyle Brock powers were magically endowed to him by the Egyptian god, Seth. As Earth-Lord, Brock has the ability to draw strength and mass from the ground to become a giant with superhuman physical attributes, and can return to his normal at will. His costume is made from enchanted metal and fabric that grow and shrink as he changes size.; Wind Warrior - Pamela Shaw was a housewife who lives in New York, she had attempted suicide after her baby had died and she was hospitalized. Pamela Shaw's powers were magically endowed by the Egyptian god Seth. As Wind Warrior, she has the ability to transform her body to become winds and whirlwinds, with power ranging up to tornado force. Wind Warrior has the ability to glide on the winds.; Skyhawk Skrull - A Skrull infiltrator in the team. Took over the identity of Winston Manchester aka Skyhawk.

+Full name: Elders of the Universe
+Other aliases: Cosmic Elders
+First appearance: Avengers Vol 1 28
+Created by: Stan Lee; Don Heck; Jim Shooter; Bill Mantlo
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The lone surviving members of their races.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile; Formerly:; Ego the Living Planet
+Equipment: Some members of the Elders of the Universe and the In-Betweener used to possess Infinity Gems: the Champion possessed the red Power Gem, the Gardener possessed the orange Time Gem, the Collector possessed the yellow Reality Gem, the Runner possessed the purple Space Gem, and the Grandmaster possessed the blue Mind Gem. Thanos later stole the Gems to assemble his Infinity Gauntlet.
+Transportation: Each member's method of transportation.
+Notes: The Obliterator was a mutant of his species, whose biological systems were focused on his body's preservation. It is unknown if other Elders have demonstrated similar powers.; Gara is said to be an Elder of the Universe and she is the last of the Viscardi, but it is not clear if she has the Power Primordial, as her cosmic power comes from the Black Vortex.; The In-Betweener's membership is contentious given that he is an abstract entity created by Lord Chaos and Master Order.; The Stranger is another dubious case. While he is apparently the merger of the Gigantian Eternals and thus qualifies as the last of his kind, he is only included in the Elders in one story and that is with the In-Betweener. Although, when that story is referenced in Thanos: The Infinity Ending Vol 1 1, the In-Betweener was specifically excluded from the Elders but the Stranger was seemingly still included.; Ego the Living Planet is directly stated to be a member, but he is not the only Living Planet.; Ego's modern origin story and the other Living Planets came after Silver Surfer Vol 3 4, the issue where Ego and other Elders identify him as an Elder. His original origin story of being a planet that somehow gained intelligence in the Black Galaxy was more compatible. Although, Egros could still be considered the last survivor of his original species that existed before he merged with the planet.; While the Elders are classified as cosmic entities, they are generally of a lower stature than Galactus, Celestials, Watchers, or abstract entities. The Grandmaster even mentioned the possibility of the Elders losing their seat at the cosmic table. The Contemplator needed help to access the Dimension of Manifestations
+Trivia: The Collector was the first Elder to appear, and therefore introduce the team into continuity, in Avengers Vol 1 28 by Stan Lee and Don Heck. However, the idea of the Elders of the Universe to which he -- and other alien figures -- belonged was not introduced until Avengers Vol 1 174, written by Jim Shooter and Bill Mantlo.; According to the Watcher, the Elders of the Universe are to the beginning of time like the Time-Keepers are to the end.; To the Elders, eight hundred thousand years is a "blink of an eye."; Geometer's status as an Elder is unknown. However, he fits most of the major requirements: he is the last of his kind, several billion years old, originates in the 616 universe, and has a monomanic obsession (in his case, creating the mathematically perfect universe).
+History:
+===Origins===; The Elders of the Universe's origins are lost in the early history of the universe. They are some of the oldest living beings in the universe. Each of the Elders is the last survivor of their respective species, most of which evolved right after the Big Bang. In the Seventh/Eighth Cosmos, their respective species were some of the earliest creations of the Celestials.; Obliterator stated that he is 5.5 billion years old, and that other Elders are about the same age. They are virtually immortal and not only have they outlived their respective races, they have also all outlived their original galaxies. While they are not abstract entities, they have all attained some level of cosmic power. As the relatively few survivors of the earliest period of the universe, the Elders regard themselves figuratively as siblings. They do not often associate with each other aside from the Grandmaster's schemes. Some meetings occur on member Ego the Living Planet; Ego cannot attend when Elders meet elsewhere.; Some time after their formation, the Elders of the Universe discovered that they were not as immortal as they initially believed when Matani, the wife of the Collector, died due to losing the will to live. Because of this, the Elders all decided to wholly dedicate themselves to something as to retain a reason to go on. Some time later, the Elders also decided to change their names to suit their new professions.; Eons before the current time, the Elders of the Universe, joined by the abstract entity the In-Betweener, fought the Great Old One, Shuma-Gorath.<!--; ===Contest of Champions===; The Elders were granted immortality by Death after Grandmaster staged the "Contest of Champions" in an attempt to revive Collector. -->; ===Killing Galactus===; The Collector then joined the other Elders in the Grandmaster's scheme to kill Galactus. Thus, the existing universe would collapse. The Elders would survive the big crunch and the subsequent big bang of a new universe, becoming Galactus-like beings in the new universe. The scheme failed, but the Collector had become one of the threats to the universe he had once predicted and against whom he had schemed.; ===Thanos Quest===; Following the Grandmaster's schemes, the Elders took possession of the Infinity Gems. The Soul Gem went to the In-Betweener, the Power Gem went to Champion, the Time Gem went to the Gardener, the Reality Gem was taken by the Collector, the Space Gem went to the Runner and the Mind Gem went to the Grandmaster. They held them for a time until the Mad Titan, Thanos, gathered these gems into the Infinity Gauntlet.; ===The Cosmic Cube===; Accessing the power of a stolen Cosmic Cube, Thanos summoned a gathering of the astral versions of some cosmic heavyweights, including the Stranger, the In-Betweener and three of the Elders of the Universe. While Thanos briefly taunted them with the powerful item, the Collector coveted it, seeking to broker a trade. Tiring of the general exchange, Thanos turned the Cube on the other entities, seemingly wiping them from existence. They had actually been teleported to the Cancerverse, as the artificial Cosmic Cube wasn't powerful enough to kill them. The Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy joined them soon after the Mad Titan tried to kill them as well. The Elders made a deal with the heroes, using a weapon from the Collector's vault, the Avengers weakened Thanos after returning to Earth. The united forces of Earth's heroes proceeded to defeat Thanos, and as part of the deal, the Elders got to decide what to do with him.; ===Deadpool Corps===; The Deadpool Corps was founded by Deadpool after he was chosen by the Contemplator in stopping a cosmic entity known as the Awareness that devours the Multiverse's consciousness. In truth, the Deadpool Corps's real power to stop the entity is their unique mind that ultimately made them absolutely immune to the entity. The Deadpool Corps came into conflict with the Champion, who and along with the Grandmaster did not see them as worthy heroes and decided to test them. Fortunately, the Corps proved their worth by tricking the Champion into becoming two-times stranded on a planet. With help from the Broken Blade, the Corps annihilated the entity who turns out to be a little alien that was the lone survivor of his species after the Big Bang.; ===The New Contest of Champions===; Following the temporary death of the Multiverse, the Elders of the Universe discovered the reality where the Multiversal renewal began, a broken dimension where the remains of a planet named Battleworld floated as the broken shell of what once was everything that remained of the Multiverse, formerly controlled by Doctor Doom. Due to being the epicenter of a new creation, this dimension became rich in a powerful substance known as Iso-8. The Elders of the Universe resolved to fight for its concentrated and most powerful form, the ISO-Sphere, and decided to use the remains of Battleworld as an arena for the new Contest of Champions. Each Elder abducted a contestant from across the Multiverse to fight to death on their behalf. When the Contest of Champions drew to a close, only the Collector's and the Grandmaster's competitors remained, the Maestro of Earth-69413 and the Punisher of Earth-928, respectively, and the other Elders had returned back to Earth-616 with their hands empty. Maestro and Punisher conspired against their masters, and among their plans, they suggested a new Contest of Champions, where they would become summoners for their superiors, and choose their own champions to fight on their and their master's behalf. In the end, Maestro managed to acquire the entirety of the ISO-Sphere and banish the last two remaining Elders back to their reality.; ===G.O.D.S.===; Wyn, the Avatar of The-Powers-That-Be, learned that Cubisk Core would attempt to destroy reality, and to stop him, he and his assistant Dimitri went to various Elders to get the means to prevent reality's destruction. They first went to the Collector and exchanged with him a penny from a destroyed universe for the Buchcub and a six handed clock from his collection. The duo gave the clock to the Contemplator who in gratitude gave them one of his vases which just so happened to contain a key. They gave the key to the Possessor who in exchange gave Wyn a Kree translocator that was could only teleport to his vault. Wyn and Dimitri lastly went to the Grand Bazaar of the Trader, where they traded the translocator for access to Eldrac's teleportation power. They were teleported to Prometheus Pit where Wyn used the Buchcub to defeat Cubisk Core.; ==Attributes==; ===Powers===; Power Primordial: The Power Primordial is residual energy left over from the Big Bang that created the current universe. The circumstances in which the various Elders each gained some of this energy are yet to be revealed. While the energy itself is vast, it takes years of intensive training to purposely channel the energy to grant each of the Elders the various superhuman physical, mental, or energy manipulative capabilities that they possess. Each Elder has purposely channeled the Power Primordial to grant them greater abilities in some areas than in others.; Immortality: Originally, Elders' immortality was tied to their will to live. If an Elder were to lose their will to live, then they would perish shortly after, as was the case with Matani. It was for this reason that the Elders chose a single obsession to dedicate their lives, it served as a distraction to keep themselves with a desire to live. After the Grandmaster sacrificed himself to resurrect the Collector, he tricked Death into granting all of the Elders immortality. However, beings that transcend Death can still kill the Elders.

As the protectors of China, they felt Xorn was their responsibility and attacked the X-Men.; When Xorn's containment helmet cracked and opened the black hole, the Eight Immortals realized the destruction caused by Xorn wasn't the X-Men's doing and offered their assistance. Even though they didn't want to help the X-Men fight the Chinese military, in whose possession a spare containment helmet was, they guided the X-Men to the military base for safety.; ==Powers and Abilities==; At least some of the members of the team appear to have super powers, though it's never revealed what's the source of those powers. All of them appeared to be skilled in the martial arts, most had body armor, and some of them carried weapons (hammer, swords, and a handgun).; The team member who had lost his legs was able to weaken Polaris from a distance to the point that she felt like she was dying, causing her to collapse. Another one who carried two swords was able to shatter the ice blasts that Iceman was sending his way and when he got encased in ice, he broke himself free by shattering the ice. The lone female member of the group touched the soil with her hand, controlling vegetation which entangled Gambit.

+Created by: Kieron Gillen; Niko Henrichon; Douglas Braithwaite
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Hel; Formerly:; Asgard
+History:
+The Dísir were the Valkyries of Bor. Having rebelled against him as well as nature, they had begun "feeding" on gods, in fact having intercourse with Sigurd and his troop. Once discovered, they were cast out from all realms, existing in the spaces between realms in spirit-form alone. Due to the nature of their crime, Bor cursed them, only to consume the shades of gods exiled from their true homes, so they would be hungry forever.; ===Siege===; During the Siege of Asgard, the Dísir tried to feed on the Asgardians who were slain, but soon made a quick retreat when encountering Valkyrie (Dani Moonstar).; ===Servants of Mephisto===; Kid Loki gained control of them and bartered their services to Mephisto in exchange for him granting Hela a small corner of his realm for her to establish a new Hel.; ===Fear Itself===; Four Dísir were given to Kid Loki to assist him against the Serpent: Brün, Mad Hlökk, Kára of the Twilight, and Göndul the Fool.; ===New Mutants===; Thanks to the manipulations of Kid Loki, the Dísir were eventually freed from their curse by Bor, returning to their old selves. They became the personal Valkyries of Hela and swore that, upon his death, they would take vengeance on Sigurd for his past crimes.; ===Asgard's Assassin===; After Angela kidnapped her own sister and disappeared with her from the all-seeing Heimdall's sight, Odinson went to Hel to ask for Hela's help to capture his rogue sister and rescue the baby. Hela helped them by calling the Dísir so they could hunt Angela.; Odinson cried their name and it raced to all corners of creation. Angela was heading to Heven with the Guardians of the Galaxy's help when she heard Odinson's cry, only her being able to hear it. She then repeated it, inadvertently summoning the Dísir into the Guardians' ship. A fierce battle ensued between the Dísir and the Guardians. While her sisters were battling the Guardians, Brün worked out the ship's location and revealed to the Guardians that the baby Angela was carrying with her was the kidnapped newborn baby of Odin and Freyja before being decapitated.; Following Angela's explanation of what was happening to the Guardians, they threw the Dísir, who were left in pieces (literally), into space, from where Hela recovered them. In Hel, Brün told Hela and Odinson that Angela was taking the girl to Heven, and so the Odinson went to save his sister.; ===War of the Realms===; During the War of the Realms, the Dísir were recruited by the Enchantress behind Hela's back to further her conquest of South America on the promise of freedom. Their attention was caught by the Champions, who fought to push back the Draugr's forces in São Francisco Xavier, Brazil. The Dísir managed to overpower the young heroes until their very existence began to power up Power Man. His abilities allowed him to absorb ambient cultural energy, and worked specifically well with ancient beings such as the Dísir. Following their defeat, the Dísir teleported back to Hel, where they were forced to answer to Hela for their treachery.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; As Valkyries, the Dísir possess the conventional abilities of an Asgardian god including class 30 Superhuman Strength and enhanced durability. Several of them possess additional powers such as skills in magic. All are trained in a variety of weapons and can use teamwork to defeat much stronger opponents.; In their cursed state, the Dísir were immune to all damage except the "souls" of others. Most passed right through them and blows from Thor's hammer barely affected them. They could instantly be summoned by anyone who called their groups name regardless of barriers in place, slice their target to pieces, and depart without anyone noticing.; ===Weaknesses===; The Dísir are cannibalistic in nature, and can only consume the spirit-forms of Asgardian gods.; Their curse prevented them from entering either Valhalla or Hel.; They have been shown to be destroyed by the sword Eir-Gram, given to Valkyrie (Dani Moonstar) by Hela.

+First appearance: Sub-Mariner Comics Vol 1 3
+Created by: Al Gabriele; Alex Schomburg
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Rockhenge, Ireland
+Equipment: The Druids have fashioned crude diving equipment that would allow them to breath underwater for an extended, but undisclosed period of time. They have also constructed a series of underwater dwellings, both domed and made of rock. They have also developed an adequate undersea farming system as well.
+Weapons: Although pacifists by nature, the Druids of Black Moors had access to weapons such as swords, daggers, and maces.
+Transportation: Their homes were mobile, allowing them to move them to any location underwater that they saw fit.
+History:
+The Druids of Black Moors were a sect of Druids that resided in Ireland thousands of years ago. A peace loving civilization, they lived and practiced their religion around a formation known as Rockhenge, which was similar to that of Stonehenge in England. When one of their elders foretold of a great flooding that was coming, they constructed crude diving equipment and developed an undersea dwelling where they would live out the centuries in peace.; In 1941, they were discovered by a group of Nazis who convinced the Druids -- particularly the headstrong Cestis -- that the British were warmongers that sought to enslave the entire world. Tricked into believing the Nazis were peace-loving, the Druids invited them to hide their aircraft in their hidden domain shortly after France was liberated from Nazi control. This allowed Nazi forces to continue to launch blitzkriegs against Britain, disappearing in a veil of pea-soup fog whenever British forces attempted to capture them.; The mysterious disappearances of the Nazi fighters led the British authorities to summon the aid of the Sub-Mariner to investigate. Namor located the hidden location of the Druids home and was almost slain by them before being stopped by Nazi agents who wished to torture their enemy first. Namor broke free and convinced the Druids that the Nazis were the true enemy. Fed up of the Nazis using up their food supplies, the Druids were convinced of the Nazis' duplicity and agreed to help Namor revolt against them. Cestis was slain in the conflict.; After Namor prevented another invasion of Britain, he returned to the Druid's undersea home with weapons for the Druids to fight back against their former allies. With the Nazi forces wiped out with Namor's aid, the Druids moved their home four miles west of its original location in the hopes that they would return to living their lives in peace; however, they would offer their aid to Namor in the future should he ever need it.; If Namor has ever sought out the Druids remains to be seen, their present activities or if they still exist remains unrevealed.

+History:
+Like in many other alternate realities, the longest living beings in the known universe in Reality-1815 would band together, forming the Elders of the Universe. Each member focused their long life spans with a single minded obsession. For the Grandmaster, it was games, while the others -- the Collector, Runner, Champion and Gardener -- their pursuits were self evident. During World War II, the Grandmaster and Collector discovered the planet Earth and noted that it contained a vast amount of super-humans. The Collector sought to put them in his collection, however, the Grandmaster convinced him to take up a wager. Noting baseline humanity's prejudice of super-humans, the Grandmaster wagered that the humans would eventually round up and incarcerate their super-humans. Sure enough, Operation: Zero Tolerance was passed, and the Grandmaster's prediction would come true.; However, this wager was lost when the reality hopping Exiles freed all the world's super-humans on their first mission. Furious, the Grandmaster learned all there was to know about the Exiles from the recently liberated Magneto. Seeking to get revenge, the Grandmaster found Earth-33629, a reality that had counterparts of all of the Exiles' original members. He then made a wager with his Earth-33629 counterpart to pit these Exiles against the current team. Both teams of Exiles were manipulated into fighting each other but eventually learned the truth. Angry that he once more was being interfered with, the Grandmaster slayed the two Exile teams. This angered Grandmaster-33629 who resurrected the dead heroes. He then sent a call to the Earth-33629 version of the Elders who subdued Grandmaster-1815 and imprisoned him on Collector-33629's museum world.; The activities of the other Elders of Earth-1815 remain unrevealed.

+History:
+The Duckowee Native American tribe was a dignified one until it was reduced -by unspecified means- to only two surviving members, Chief Sitting Duck and warrior One-Feather. As of the 1840s, they found a small town, Pleasantville, where they wanted to settle - but, before they could do so, Pleasantville was evacuated because the locals moved to California looking for gold. Sitting Duck performed spells so that time would not pass there and that noone could find them, giving rise to the legend of Shang-Goo-La. The spell failed during the 1950s and the town was assaulted by a band of barbarian bikers, the Sickle Club, who imprisoned the Duckowees. It took them 30 years to dig a escape tunnel; when they did, One-Feather was sent with a map to find help. Unfortunately, One-Feather's use of magic was imperfect and he turned into a baby, then an egg. Fortunately, One-Feather's map ended up in newspaper editor J. Jonah Jackal, who decided to go after the story. Jackal and several journalist -one of whom was secretly superhero Spider-Ham- found Shang-Goo-La and chased the bikers away; once they were outside the town, they turned into elderly people with no way to come back to the town, and even their bikes broke. Unfortunately, the journalist were also unable to prove the existance of Shang-Goo-La, and Sitting Duck never knew what happened to his last brave one, One-Feather.

Also, they apparently only work in his country.; The Chinese army decided to use jets to explode the Dam, so although they would lose it anyway, they could at least destroy the enemy. Then the Dynasty left the scene in a special aircraft.; When Tony Stark was kidnapped by the Mandarin and forced to create new weapons for him, the Dynasty was contacted by Tony's friends Pepper Potts and Bethany Cabe of Resilient for help to rescue Tony which they gladly accepted. The cavalry arrived just in time when Iron Man was fighting Mandarin and his Titanomechs, which were destroyed by the efforts of the heroes.; The Dynasty fought Thanos' forces during his invasion.

+Transportation: Extra-dimensional ship
+History:
+A special ops combat team assembled by A.R.M.O.R. to stop the zombies of Earth-12591. The Dozen were recruited by Howard the Duck and were mostly comprised of golden-age era superhumans, many of whom hadn't been seen in action for decades, in addition to Battlestar and a skeptical Dum-Dum Dugan.; The unit was transported to the zombies' Earth through the trans-dimensional teleportation powers of group member Taxi Taylor and were attacked by large cannons firing zombies at them immediately upon arrival. Team member Gur was quickly killed and the group's ship was destroyed in the initial battle, leaving the remaining members stranded on the ground.; The Dozen suffered their next casualties when they were attacked by a zombified version of the Invaders. Breeze Barton, Dynaman, and the Red Raven were all killed by the superpowered zombies before the group was rescued by the Suffragists, the last resistance to the zombified Third Reich left on the planet. The Suffragists took the surviving members of the Ducky Dozen to meet their informant, Professor Zog, who revealed that he himself was a Nazi, but that he didn't agree with the Reich's plan to Zombify the Multiverse. Zog arranged transport for the group aboard his personal train in order to get them inside the Zombies' headquarters, where they kept the trans-dimensional battleship. Soon Zog himself, as well as the Suffragist Columbia were killed by zombie Valkyries that attacked the train looking for Loki.; After the Valkyries themselves were driven off, Loki appeared to the remaining adventurers. He revealed that he was behind the planet's zombie apocalypse, but that he didn't intend for the Asgardians to also become infected with the plague. With Loki's help, the group managed to avoid the Asgardian zombies who were looking for Loki. Dum Dum was then disguised as his zombie self and snuck into the zombies' secret headquarters. The rest of the group end up fighting the Asgardian zombies while the Eternal Brain used his telekinetic powers to pick the secret entrance's lock. Dragoon was killed by a zombie Executioner before the group was able to seal themselves inside the hideout.; The group suffered more casualties once inside the base, however, as Flexo, the Blazing Skull, and Libertas were all torn limb from limb by a zombified Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder while the others escaped. The rest, including Loki, headed to a secret bunker containing countless powerful weapons that the zombies had horded during their world takeover. They succeeded in launching an atomic bomb that wiped out the zombie threat, though it cost Miss America her life. The remaining Dozen and the Riveter were able to escape thanks to the selfless sacrifice of the Eternal Brain, who gave Taxi Taylor the time she needed to transport them back to the Hollow at the cost of his own life. Unbeknownst to the group, they also brought a zombified Captain America back to Earth-616.

+Transportation: The dwarf men rode a breed of horse which also had stunted growth.
+History:
+The Dwarf Men of Devil-Tree Rock are an ancient civilization that has existed on Devil-Tree Rock, Navada for centuries, seemingly undisturbed by modern man. They appear to be an offshoot of Mayan tribes, who apparently due to their living conditions have come to be dwarfish in size, and also bred a breed of horses befitting their size. They worshipped an unnamed goddess who was depicted to have normal human size with blond hair. In every succeeding generation, there was a member of their tribe who grew to the normal size of a human being and they were revered as the tribe's leader.; During the days of the American Frontier, Devil-Tree Plateau was investigated by Professor Carl Sturgis and his daughter Jessica who had received evidence of a previously undiscovered breed of dwarf horses. They climbed the plateau and were captured by the dwarf men. Jessica suffered a blow to the head and was rendered amnesic. She was viewed as their legendary goddess and was posed to be married to their leader.; Two months later, Jessica's fiancée Quentin came searching for her and hired Tex Taylor and Alkali Ike to help find her and her father. They travelled up Devil-Tree Plateau, and the inhabitances at the top tried to keep them at bay by causing rock slides. When this failed, they captured Tex and the others and threw them in a dungeon. The dwarves considered Tex's horse Fury to be a gift from the gods and offered it to Jessica and their leader during the wedding ceremony. This ceremony also asked for a sacrifice and so Tex was brought up to be killed on an altar. However, Fury bit through Tex's bonds and he managed to knock Jessica out, restoring her memory. After fighting off the dwarves leader, he and the others escape and fled back to the ground, avoiding another rock slide, which sealed off the pass to the top of the plateau. Tex and the others vowed never to speak of the encounter because how unbelievable it was.; The fate of the dwarf men is unknown.

+Reality: Earth-9997
+History:
+===Origins===; The Elders of the Universe were the last survivors of the previous universe, whose destruction gave birth to the current cosmos. This previous universe was destroyed as a result of overpopulation by the Celestials.; The Elders banded together and sought to re-create their cosmos. Aware that they could not directly challenge the Celestials, the Elders sought to recreate their universe from the remains of the Celestials' procreation. To that end, they created the Realm of the Dead as a collecting pool, which would gather the matter and souls of the deceased. The Elder known as Death was placed in charge of this realm.; ===Modern Age===; The Elders foresaw that Death would eventually be destroyed, and thus charged another Elder; the Phoenix Force with making its way to the Realm of the Dead in order to aid in the collection of mortal souls. As the Phoenix was a being of pure creation, it could not simply kill itself, and instead needed to find a mortal host to bond with so that they could die together. The Phoenix chose Jean Grey, an Earth mutant, whose telepathic screams for help attracted the Phoenix. The Phoenix bonded with Jean, and created a psychic rapport with her boyfriend Cyclops. The Phoenix eventually succeeded in its objective, and died, passing into the Realm of the Dead.; However, the Elders had not foreseen how the human emotions it experienced through Jean Grey, chief of all her love for Cyclops, would change the Phoenix. Once in the Realm of the Dead, it turned its back on the Elders' schemes.; Another Elder, the Grandmaster, discovered the hero Hyperion, a superpowered being from another reality. The Grandmaster grew impressed with Hyperion's power and charisma, and created a copy of his own, whom he sent to the real Hyperion's world in order to destroy the Squadron Supreme. This plot would also fail, as the real Hyperion killed the copy, who would also go on to betray the Grandmaster and the Elders after awakening in the Realm of the Dead.; ===War Against Mar-Vell===; Following the mutation of humanity, the deceased Kree hero Mar-Vell began waging war against the Elders. Mar-Vell had been trapped within the Realm of the Dead after his death, but unlike the other denizens, who all believed themselves to be alive, Mar-Vell eventually realized that he was dead. Mar-Vell tried to reach out to the cosmic consciousness he had once possessed in life, and after saving the Silver Surfer from the clutches of Death, the Enigma Force found him.; Empowered by the Enigma Force, and reborn into the mortal world as a binary being, Mar-Vell began a quest to destroy Death and free all the souls trapped in the Realm of the Dead. Building an ever-expanding army of the deceased, including the Phoenix Force, Mar-Vell was eventually successful in completing his cosmic consciousness and destroying Death.; With Death destroyed, Mar-Vell created Paradise, which served as a new afterlife for the deceased, as well as an ever-expanding shield, which would grow to cover the entire universe, and prevent both the Celestials and the Elders of the Universe from meddling with reality any further.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly:; Beehive (Costa Perdita, South America), the Beehive on a rocky plateau on a small island in the North Atlantic Ocean, an undisclosed location in Europe, a base in an undisclosed location in the American Midwest, South Bronx, Genosha
+Equipment: The Beehive: Also known as the Citadel of Science, this was the Secret Fortress of the Enclave, built on an island that apparently once served as a Deviant fortress. Work was initiated on it nearly two decades before the start of the modern era. It was one of the most technologically advanced facilities on the planet at its time. It served as the creation place of Him, who nearly destroyed it, and Paragon, who sunk it beneath the waves.
+Transportation: Transfer Grid: A teleportation device that allows beings wearing a special electronic bracelet to access the Grid, allowing them teleport to or from anywhere on Earth.
+Trivia: Jack Kirby's originally intended for the Enclave to be a riff on Objectivism. "Him" would've been created as a true Objectivist, deciding to kill his creators for being unable to put up with their flaws instead of being prompted to kill them due to their plans of world subjugation. These details were abandoned when Stan Lee revised Kirby's plot.
+History:
+The roots of the Enclave date back to the age of Camelot, when a group of renegade occultists created the Eternity Mask to oppose King Arthur. The mask persisted in time, and so did the occultists, evolving into the three-manned Scientists Guild during the 1930s, also known as the the Three Xs. They were comprised of Jerome Hamilton, Carlo Zota, and Maris Morlack.; By the late 1950s, the Scientists Guild had welcomed geneticist Wladyslav Shinski into their ranks, and were subjected to his longevity treatments to extend their lifespan, during which they intended to fulfill their objective to use science to create a benevolent world dictatorship under their rule. Shinski believed that the world must be controlled by a race of perfect humans, and intended to build this idea on Phineas Horton's Human Torch. Shinski also believed that the Scientists Guild needed to evolve into a new form, and they rebranded themselves as the Enclave.; Over the period of a year, each scientist faked his own death and then rendezvoused with the others on a small island in the North Atlantic Ocean. On this unnamed island, a friend of Hamilton's, archaeologist Daniel Damian, had discovered ruins of a technologically advanced stronghold (now believed to be an abandoned outpost of the Deviants) and told Hamilton of his find. The four Enclave scientists used the scrap metal in the ruins to create their own Citadel of Science, which they nicknamed the Beehive. After about a decade of work, the Beehive was fully operational, and it became one of the foremost scientific research facilities on Earth.; Working together, and using the abandoned technological devices they found there, the Enclave scientists created a number of scientific breakthroughs, including anti-gravity transmitters, molecular bond-severing blades, and a teleportation machine with a 2,000 mile range. The first project upon which they pinned their hopes of effecting their goals, however, was in the field of genetics. Their plan was to create a vastly powerful new race of human beings under their control with which to subjugate the rest of humanity. For almost a decade, the four scientists labored, bioengineering human DNA molecules to create life, irradiating it with various energies to imbue it with power, and chemically accelerating its growth. When their prototype reached maturity, it escaped its incubation chamber before they could set it free. Due to its rapid maturation, they were unable to place within the creature's mind the proper safeguards enabling them to control it. The creature, referred to only as "Him," manifested its various energy-manipulating powers, causing its creators to flee before they could even learn what it looked like. Using the teleportation machine, Hamilton kidnapped noted sculptor Alicia Masters and brought her to the Beehive to sculpt Him's likeness. After he persuaded her to do as they asked, Hamilton was conscience-stricken and insisted he accompany her into the chamber where Him was. In the meantime, Alicia Masters' friends, the Fantastic Four, realized she was missing and managed to locate the Beehive. Just before the Fantastic Four rescued Masters and escaped through the Enclave's teleportation machine, Hamilton was seemingly killed in a rockslide caused by one of Him's energy discharges. Zoto warned Him that the energy necessary for flight would cause the total destruction of the Beehive. Believing them to be evil, Him flew off in defiance of the warning. Him later became known as Adam Warlock.; While all four scientists survived the great damage the Beehive sustained by Him's manifestation of power, Hamilton was left for dead. Waking up in the wreckage and left blind by the incident, Hamilton donned the Eternity Mask, which had also been left behind in the wreckage, and decided to wage war against the Enclave as the vigilante Blind Justice. In addition to the structural damage, the Enclave lost most of the mercenaries they employed as guards in the Beehive, but they nevertheless began to rebuild their facilities. When it was completed, they undertook their second genetic experiment, a duplication of the first which they hoped to keep under control. When the second creature reached maturity, the Enclave enlisted the unwilling aid of Dr. Stephen Strange, a former famed surgeon. The Enclave wanted Strange to use their remote-controlled laser to perform brain surgery on the creature to ensure that it would obey them. Despite their precautions, the creature regained control of its own mind shortly after it emerged from its cocoon-like womb, and released sufficient energies to cause the Beehive's island base to break up and sink beneath the sea. The creature, calling itself Paragon, created a new cocoon for itself and went inside to complete its metamorphosis. When it finally emerged, it called itself Her.; The three Enclavers managed to survive the flooding of their island-base and fled to mainland Europe where they established a new temporary headquarters. Acquiring funds by selling certain inventions to Hydra, the Enclave helped finance the Security University, an institution advertised to provide the progeny of ambassadors, politicians, and business tycoons with a secure collegiate environment. In reality, the Enclave sought to use the students to acquire classified industrial, political, and military information. To do so, the Enclave hired the Monocle, a Germans who invented various means of data-extracting thought hypnosis. At the same time the Enclave learned of the existence of the genetically advanced Inhumans and decided to conquer them in order to take control of their technology. Using a variation of their teleportation machine, they captured Medusa of the Inhumans' Royal Family to use as a hostage. The Enclave then decided to terminate the Security College project, feeling it to be a risky failure. When the Monocle refused to abandon the project and allowed its true purpose to be discovered, the Enclave detonated the Monocle's escape-shuttle, thereby killing him.; Shortly thereafter, the Enclave launched their first attack on the Inhumans, using hired mercenaries as their militia. The Enclave was aided in their war effort by the renegade Inhuman Maximus, who sabotaged his own people's defense systems, and by an outbreak of disease among the Inhumans caused by a reaction to Earth's increasing pollution. The Enclave's first war against the Inhumans ended when Maximus betrayed the Enclave and helped turn the Enclave's weapons against them. Medusa was freed in the process. None of the three principal Enclavers were taken captive in the defeat, only their mercenary soldiers. A short time later, the Enclave was contacted once more by Maximus, this time from the moon, where the Inhumans had moved their island to escape Earth's pollution. The Enclave's second war against the Inhumans was a secret one, as Maximus, possessing the body of his brother Black Bolt, permitted them to infiltrate the Inhumans' city. There they launched an attack on Earth designed to get Earth to retaliate against the Inhumans. The plot failed, due to the intervention of the Avengers, and for the first time two of the Enclave members, Morlak and Zota, were taken into custody by the authorities and tried for their treacherous acts.; Due to his infirmity, Shinski had not gone to the Moon with his colleagues and hence avoided imprisonment. He eventually acquired the minimal resources to build a makeshift teleportation machine enabling him to free his fellows. Attempting to secretly fly out of JFK Airport, the Enclave was discovered by the police. As they tried to escape, they skidded their plane into Jamaica Bay, sending Shinsky's latest project to the bottom of the bay. Investigation of the plane wreck led the Avengers to find yet another cocoon, which turned out by coincidence to be the dormant Jean Grey, who had no connection to the Enclave. From a hospital bed, Shinsky claimed that the tank they were carrying only contained certain chemical compounds, which were rendered inert by the waters of the bay. Following recovery from their injuries, the three Enclavers were sent to prison.; The Enclave later obtained both financial backing and the assistance of an agent named Frank from the group known as A.I.M.. In exchange, they were to capture Kismet and turn her over to AIM. Shinsky had a stroke and was confined to a bed, requiring intravenous therapy after suffering heart and lung damage. In a new base somewhere in the American Midwest, they rebuilt their Transfer Grid. Morlak and Zota used the Grid to travel to Project: Pegasus, where they abducted the cocoon containing the healing form of Kismet. After removing Kismet from the cocoon, they placed it around Shinsky, curing him of his ailments. While Shinsky was overjoyed at seeing his only "daughter," Morlak and Zota planned to extract some of Kismet's DNA and inject themselves, in hopes of turning into metahumans. Frank, however, assaulted Morlak and Zota, preventing them from betraying AIM as they had intended. Kismet stopped Frank from killing Shinsky, but Frank revealed himself to be an Adaptoid and adapted Kismet's original powers as Paragon. As the two fought, Shinsky infected and destroyed the Paragon Adaptoid with a genetic virus, which had been designed as a failsafe should Kismet attack them. Kismet then created more healing cocoons for the three Enclavers, and decided to stay with them and nurture her "parents."; Some time after the defeat of the Paragon Adaptoid, the Enclave were each transformed into powerful metahumans, as they had previously desired. Their advanced minds turned them away from their former plans of world conquest, although their desire to cure the ills of humanity remained. They soon found that they could not leave each other's immediate presence (with 10 meters), or suffer power loss and great pain. Testing their powers over the next few days, the trio proved themselves by stopping a dangerous tornado, saving dying patients, bringing rain to a drought region, curing deadly jungle diseases, disposing of nuclear waste, revitalizing rain forests, etc. However, they were unaware of the long-term effects of their actions, and several places suffered even worse fates from their overcompensating. Kismet tried to stop them, but their actions caused a volcano to erupt. With her aid, they averted the disaster, and they accepted her advice to learn more about their powers by investigating their source. She accompanied them out into space.; The Enclave's powers eventually faded and they returned to Earth. Wanting to get their operations back up and running again, the Enclave hired the Tinkerer to reconstruct their Transfer Grid. Fallen on hard times, the Enclave operated out of a building in the South Bronx, where they designed control chips which they implanted in criminals and other dregs of society in order to use them as drones. They also built a robot, the Remote, which they used to acquire needed technology from other companies. The Remote killed a security guard in the process of looting Micron Labs, and his silhouette as he left made witnesses think he was Spider-Man. This drew both Spider-Man and the Thunderbolts to investigate. The Thunderbolts fought the Remote and then followed it back to the Enclave, while Spider-Man followed the Thunderbolts. With their most recent components, they completed work on their Bio-Modem, a beam able to control the minds of others, and their Transfer Grid. When the heroes confronted them, they used their Bio-Modem to take control of their minds, but Spider-Man and Mach-1 managed to set-up interference to the Modem's power and they freed the others. The heroes then destroyed the Remote. The members of the Enclave fled through the Grid, using its Omni-Retrieval function to take their equipment (including the Grid) with them.; Seeking for a way to jumpstart their efforts to bioengineer their master race, Morlak and Shinsky came upon the idea of usurping the creative genius of Reed Richards and designed a device to do just that. Possibly hoping to pique Richards' interest, they traveled to the monastery of the Tibetan Monks of Doom, the same sect that had constructed the armor of Doctor Doom. Slaughtering many of the monks, they enslaved the rest, and had them forge a pair of armored suits similar to those worn by Doom. In Stockholm, Sweden, Morlak, as Crucible, attacked a scientific symposium, injuring all present. As intended this drew him into a conflict with Reed Richards, during which he used a decoy device (thought to be a bomb) to drive away the Thing and their ally, Alyssa Moy. As he fought Richards, Crucible activated a device that drained Richards' inventive genius, transferring it into himself. He then escaped unseen.; Morlak and Shinsky then relocated to Genosha where they set up shop and began using the war-torn nation as a proving grounds for their weapons and tactics. At the same time, they began gathering and experimenting on the Genoshan people, hoping to transform them into their master race. At some point, they captured Kismet and managed to brainwash her into serving them. Altering her appearance and powers, they renamed her Ayesha ("She who must be obeyed").; Seeking a means to oppose Crucible, the Genoshan government sent the Press Gang, alongside Trapster, to capture Reed Richards. The remaining members of the Fantastic Four traveled to Genosha in pursuit of Reed, but were confronted and defeated by Ayesha. She brought them to Crucible, who swapped their minds with a trio of his Genoshan accomplices, Jomo Kimane, Farisa Mansour, and Harry Soong. The three heroes, trapped in powerless bodies, escaped from Crucible's prison.; The powerless heroes were reunited with Reed and, along with Genoshan Chief Magistrate Anderson, stormed Crucible's base. Ben, Johnny, and Sue fought their powered counterparts and reclaimed their bodies. Meanwhile, Reed entered the inner sanctum and discovered the Enclave's human guinea pigs. Morlak revealed his identity and confronted Richards, but soon began to crack under the stress of caused by the continued influx of thoughts and ideas from Reed Richards' stolen inventive genius. Just then Shinsky appeared, also wearing Crucible armor, and blasted Morlak, killing him. Shinsky pronounced Morlak as unworthy of claiming the cosmos and of serving as Ayesha's consort. He named himself as the true Crucible, with Morlak as just his lackey. Mister Fantastic managed to stun Crucible, who fled when the rest of the Fantastic Four, having regained their powers, arrived. Crucible located Ayesha who had been fighting Anderson. The magistrate surprised both of them with a Black Hole Grenade, which generated a miniature event horizon, pulling the three of them in, apparently ending the threat of Crucible forever.; A new incarnation of the Enclave was established years later by the scientist Ted Goodrich, who unearthed the abandoned Beehive, and intended to follow in the footsteps of the original group. Goodrich funded his new operation selling the idea of the original Enclave as a rumor to think tanks conferences. Following an invasion on Earth by the Mad Titan Thanos during which the Inhuman king Black Bolt detonated a Terrigen Bomb that swept the Earth, millions of unsuspecting humans were encased in cocoons to undergo Terrigenesis due to their latent Inhuman lineage. Goodrich's Enclave set out to analyse these new Inhumans, and came into conflict with the Hulk after abducting the recently-surfaced Inhuman Randy Jessup, an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and subordinate of the Hulk's alter-ego, Bruce Banner.; When Jessup was brought to the Beehive and was toured around the facility, he recognized the instability of its power source. After the Hulk arrived to retrieve Jessup, Randy mutated into his own monstrous form and joined forces with the Hulk to destroy the Beehive's power source. In a desperate attempt to salvage something before his plans were foiled, Goodrich desperately began chipping away at an Inhuman cocoon. He managed to pierce the cocoon, but both Goodrich and his assistant Stella Webb were pulled into it by the Inhuman within and were seemingly consumed. The remaining members of the Enclave were all accidentally teleported away during the destruction of the Beehive's power source. Following this incident, the rest of Bruce Banner's team took over the Beehive as they defected from S.H.I.E.L.D.; Carlo Zota eventually resurfaced and established a new Enclave on his own. Continuing with their mission, the Enclave attempted to create a new perfect human to help them save the world. Their project involved the refurbishing of the hyper-intelligent cybernetic amalgamation called Korvac. However, upon reactivation, Korvac deemed that the scope of the Enclave's objective, to seek a better Earth, was arrogant and selfish. Korvac renounced the Enclave and sought to turn himself into a god to create a better universe instead.

+History:
+The Enforcers were a small team of career criminals and were among Spider-Man's earliest foes. Originally, they consisted of Montana, Fancy Dan, and the Ox and first appeared as henchmen of the crime kingpin Big Man, being defeated by Spider-Man. Later, they teamed up with the Green Goblin and Sandman. They also clashed with other superheroes, including the Human Torch and Daredevil.; After Ox's apparent death, Montana and Fancy Dan teamed with a new Big Man, Sandman, and a new Crime Master (Nick Lewis Jr. son of the original). They were defeated once again by Spider-Man and the Human Torch. During the battle, Crime Master shot the new Big Man, unaware "he" was really Janice Foswell, Nick's own girlfriend and the daughter of Frederick Foswell, the original Big Man.; The Enforcers recruited Raymond Bloch's twin brother, Ronald, as the new Ox, soon clashing with Dazzler. The Enforcers later returned with two new members Snake Marston, a master contortionist and Hammer Harrison, an expert boxer who used two steel gloves. They were defeated by Spider-Man and the Sandman (then a reformed criminal).; The original Ox (Raymond Bloch) returned, revived by the Kingpin, and stayed with the team thereafter.; During the superhuman Civil War, Ronald and Snake Marston were recruited into the latest incarnation of the Thunderbolts. The Thunderbolts were apprehending established super-criminals and giving them the choice of joining the team or facing incarceration. The Ox and Marston apparently took the former choice, becoming Thunderbolts-in-training. The absence of the other Enforcers might be explained by the fact that all Thunderbolts recruits thus far all possessed some degree of superhuman or near-superhuman ability, or employed technology to simulate such powers; while the Ox and Marston fall loosely under that definition, Fancy Dan, Montana and Hammer Harrison do not.; Following the resurrection of Montana and the original Ox by the new Jackal, the Enforcers were reformed. During their involvement with the Jackal, they overheard the also-resurrected Ned Leeds tipping off his wife Betty Brant on a story he was working on before his death. The Enforcers warned the man the investigation would lead to, the Maggia leader Ernesto Karnelli, and worked with him to cover his tracks. They kidnapped Dr. Wayne Childs as well as Mr. Prescott, two of Ned's contacts, and eventually Brant herself. The Enforcers protected Karnelli as he escaped from the radius of a powerful explosive he was going to set off remotely, and confronted Spider-Man. When Karnelli decided to set off the explosive before being at a safe distance, Montana himself snatched the detonator from Karnelli's hands. All Enforcers were subsequently apprehended and imprisoned.

+History:
+The Elementals were supposedly cast out of their own universe millenia ago, arriving on Earth before Atlantis was even built. Using their mastery of the elements, these four beings created a kingdom on Earth that was unopposed until they tried to extend their rule into the land that would someday be known as Egypt. Here, a young warrior named Dann and a wizard named Garrett joined their two souls to arcane magics and created the Ruby Scarab. In the hands of Dann, this magical item sapped the powers of the Elementals and banished them to another universe.; Nothing more was heard of the Elementals until the modern age when they transported the Living Mummy from New York City in order to enlist him in their search for the Ruby Scarab, which they sought to help them take control of the world. After the Elementals took the city of Cairo hostage under a force field, Zephyr revealed herself to be opposed to the others, helping N'Kantu, Doctor Skarab, and the others to defeat her former brethren. These three Elementals were then banished from Earth by Alexi Skarab using the power of the Ruby Scarab. Afterwards, Zephyr accepted an offer to accompany the thieves Asp and Olddann who had secretly stolen the Ruby Scarab from Doctor Skarab.; The Elementals later returned to Earth in search of Zephyr and the Scarab. They fought Ms. Marvel and their former ally Hecate, they were defeated one by one. After returning to space, the Elementals were all captured by the Collector.

+Identity status: Secret

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Ringsfjord
+Weapons: The Living Talismans
+History:
+The origins of the Enchanters remain unknown. There are four who call themselves brothers, but whether they are part of a larger race, etc. remains unclear. Whether they are truly native to Asgard is also uncertain.; Odin read from the Book of Enchanters, instructing Thor of the Day of Three Worlds, in which he must stake all on the life of another.; The youngest of the Enchanters, Enrakt was still training and was left behind when his older brothers plotted against Asgard.; Balder and Sif were sent to Ringsfjord to seek out the Enchanters, who sent their Living Talisman to battle them before appearing themselves. Forsung turned the ground below them to quicksand and Sif teleported them away to escape it. They went to Earth to seek out Thor; Brona and Magnir followed them to Earth, while Forsung traveled to Asgard to challenge Odin.; Brona and Magnir, aided by their Living Talismans (Living Talismen?) confronted Balder, Sif, and Thor, challenging them to a fight to the death. The Enchanters levitated a piece of the ground into the air, taking Thor with them, while leaving Balder and Sif on the ground. Thor battled the two Enchanters inconclusively. Meanwhile, Forsung and his own Living Talisman confronted Odin, challenging him to combat for the supremacy of Asgard, with the Odinsword as the prize. So that none could interfere, Odin removed the non-physical powers of all of his subjects while Forsung disclaimed the use of his Living Talisman. This caused the Enchanters and Thor to return to the Earth, allowing Balder and Sif to join the fight. Balder defeated Magnir and Thor dropped Brona. Odin and Forsung flew through the air as they grappled, glowing with a blinding light.; Thor and his allies turned the now powerless Brona and Magnir over to the New York Police Department, while Odin reappeared in Asgard, having slain Forsung in combat. Odin then crushed Forsung's Living Talisman and banished Brona and Magnir to the Lost Limbo of Infinity Unending.; As Kurse sought vengeance on Malekith, Malekith cast an illusion that made Kurse believe he overpowered Hela and briefly took control of Hel. Malekith also made him believe Thor was actually Malekith. Kurse assaulted Thor, and summoned "the Ravagers from the realms of Ice and Death" --including Forsung (with his Living Talisman), Fafnir of Nastrond, Fafnir the giant, a trio of Ice Dwarves, an Ice Giant, the Midgard Serpent, and Nidhogg--to finish him off.; As the Ravagers attacked Thor, he was assisted by the High Evolutionary and his Godpack. Forsung managed to fell the High Evolutionary, and several of the Godpack began to fall before the onslaught, so Odin sent Beta Ray Bill, Fandral, and Volstagg to assist Thor and his allies.; After further battle, the true Hela appeared and eliminated Malekith's illusions. Hela then returned the Ravagers to Hel.; Enrakt searched endlessly to locate the Lost Limbo of Eternity Unending for years, but once he was reunited with his brothers, he found the realm even more difficult to escape than to locate and enter. Eventually they located the dimension of Ceranda, finding Thor present there as well. Enrakt used Ceranda's magical fire pit to transfer his astral essence across the dimensional gulf and to enter the hammer of Thor. Once inside, he became its new master, but his physical body died due to being so distant from its soul. Enrakt then traveled with Thor to Earth after burying Ceranda. Enrakt split his astral essence, invading and reanimating Ceranda's corpse. However, his powers were virtually exhausted by his recent efforts and so he had to wait until they were recovered to gain his vengeance.; As Thor defended shock jock Chucky Diamond from attackers, Enrakt caused Mjolnir to fail to return to Thor's hand and instead fly towards Diamond's head. Thor stopped the hammer in the nick of time, and it briefly manifested a monstrous face, taunting him.; While Thor battled the Absorbing Man, Enrakt caused Mjolnir to become lodged in a wall, preventing it from returning to Thor. When Jake Olson tried to use the hammer to turn back into Thor, Enrakt emerged from the hammer (transforming Ceranda's form into a likeness of his own) and caused Olson to have a heart attack. Brona and Magnir appeared in Asgard confronting Odin as he prepared for the Odinsleep (and after he was drugged by Tarakis), teleporting him away. Meanwhile Enrakt confronted the Warriors Three on Earth as they stood guard over Mjolnir. Enrakt overpowered the Warriors Three then transformed a group of humans into monstrous creatures which he sent to devour them. In the distraction, Jake Olson grabbed Mjolnir and turned back into Thor and battled Enrakt. The Enchanter taunted him with an image of Odin struggling against Brona and Magnir before blasting Thor to the ground. Enrakt caught Thor's hammer and hurled it back at him before departing to join the battle against Odin.; Thor used Mjolnir to return to normal the people mutated by Enrakt. The Scarlet Witch then used the residue on Enrakt remaining within Mjolnir to locate him, and sent Thor to join Odin against them. The Enchanters absorbed Odin's strongest energy attacks and used that energy to assault him, but Thor arrived and pulled the Enchanters from him. Enrakt then transformed the ground beneath their feet into an immense serpent which swallowed them whole. Though Thor and Odin were powerless to escape Enrakt's serpent creation, the Scarlet Witch arrived and allowed them to do so. Dividing up their foes, Odin easily bested Brona with a knee to the face and crushed his Living Talisman, the Scarlet Witch trapped Magnir within solid rock, and Thor fought Enrakt. Unaware that the Scarlet Witch had cast a spell of invisible protection around Mjolnir, making it impossible for him to control, Enrakt grabbed the hammer and tried to unleash the anti-force at Thor, but Thor directed it back at him. Thor then battered Enrakt into submission. Thor prepared to execute Enrakt, but Odin told him to unmask the Enchanter instead, revealing Ceranda as the body in Enrakt's armor. Thor and Odin returned with the Enchanters to Asgard. Odin banished Brona and Magnir back to the Lost Limbo of Infinity Unending (after confirming that they had no further brethren to come after them), while Ceranda (left in a lifeless state without Enrakt to animate her) was to be placed under the Glass of Everlasting Honor.

+Electro decided to form the Emissaries of Evil in order to get revenge against Daredevil. He tracked down the Stilt-Man, following a battle which had left the electrical systems of the Stilt-Man's Battlesuit shorted out. Electro found the Stilt-Man trapped in the waters of a river and rescued him. He took the Stilt-Man to his home, and used an artificial electrical storm to restore power to the suit. He then had Wilbur Day recuperate in his home. The Stilt-Man was his first recruit to the team.; Electro next contacted and recruited the most powerful enemies of Daredevil: the Gladiator, Leap-Frog, and the Matador. Gladiator was at the time living in Europe as a member of the Maggia. Electro contacted the Maggia in Europe in his attempt to get to the Gladiator.; The Matador was the last member to join, and met Electro at the streets of New York City. Their meeting was overheard by Daredevil, who learned of the existence of the Emissaries. He challenged Electro and the Matador to fight him on the street. Electro managed to injure Daredevil, and left him seemingly unconscious in the street. The Matador wanted to finish off their foe, but Electro considered this fight to only be a warning to Daredevil. The fight left Daredevil dizzy and disoriented.; Daredevil spend the next day searching for the Emissaries. The Matador challenged him to a fight in the docks of New York City. Daredevil defeated him, but the villain escaped by swimming away. Hours later, Daredevil was approached in an alley by the Stilt-Man. Daredevil injured his leg in their fight, but still managed to defeat the Stilt-Man. Hero and villain escaped, after destroying the wall of a building.; The following night, the Leap-Frog went searching for Daredevil in a park. He was ambushed by Daredevil, but managed to escape. He challenged Daredevil to follow him, and led the hero to a trap. The rest of the Emissaries were waiting for Daredevil in largest electric power plant in New York City, where the high-voltage lines served to confuse his super senses.; A battle followed, where Daredevil fought every member of the Emissaries. The team was rather disorganized and Daredevil was able to use one member against the other. Electro accidentally knocked out the Stilt-Man, and the Matador accidentally knocked out the Leap-Frog. The fight left the villains dizzy and disoriented. Daredevil used a coil of wire as a lasso to tie up the dizzy Electro, Gladiator, Leap-Frog, and Matador. There was no need to also tie up the Stilt-Man, who was unconscious. The villains tried to use their combined strength to break through the wire, but Daredevil connected the wire to a power transformer. The transformer increased Electro's electricity and shocked the other three villains into submission. Electro's own strength was insufficient for him to escape. Daredevil promised that the police would release them, before transporting them to a prison. He thanked them for the workout.

+History:
+===Formation===; The Elite Mutant Force was a team of mutants assembled by Sinister to police over his Breeding Pens and serve Apocalypse. Those who did not accept Sinister's offer were captured and used as test subjects for Sinister and Dark Beast's experiments. The heads of the EMF were the Summers brothers Cyclops and Havok. Havok would covet the position that his brother had as head of the EMF.; In their first recorded appearance, the EMF would be sent out to track down Christopher Summers, the father of Cyclops and Havok who had returned to Earth after years of being in space. Summers was infected with a Brood embryo and risked infesting the planet with Brood hatchlings. Members Emplate would be slain and his twin sisters The Monets put in a catatonic state in their hunt before Cyclops would be forced to slay his own father.; ===Twilight of the Age of Apocalypse===; In modern times with the passing of the Kelly Pact, Cyclops would become critical of the Dark Beast's illegal experiments, this in the light of the fact that Sinister would be planning on leaving. Shortly thereafter, the EMF would be called out to capture a number of escaped mutants that broke out of the breeding pens. Havok, Northstar, Aurora and Cyclops would be dispatched to stop them. The others would slay the escapees, much to Cyclops's upset. Their remains would be turned over to the Dark Beast to have their bodies melted down. When Cannonball and Amazon would use brutal force to quell an uprising, Cyclops would order them to stand down. Later, the Bedlam Brothers and Havok would go for some relaxation at the Heaven nightclub. Their night would be interrupted by human terrorist Henry Gyrich, whom the Bedlam Brothers would defeat. Havok would leave to have a private moment with Scarlett McKenzie the lounge singer whom he was secretly having an affair with. Later Cyclops would have the Bedlam Brothers help open break into Sinister's lab when he was barred access to find that Sinister had trashed his lab.; Cyclops began secretly releasing prisoners from the slave pens, using a scrambler to mask his appearance on the security monitors. When he was witnessed by Polaris would witness his escape attempt but be left behind. Her mind fractured, she would think it was Magneto a man she believed to be her father. When the EMF attempted to interrogate her would yield no results, she would be turned over to the Dark Beast for memory extraction. Havok would continue to see Scarlett, unaware that she was a spy who was reporting whatever he told her to the Human High Council. When the Beast was to attempt to use a physical extraction, Cyclops would stop him. He would later secretly smuggler her out, knocking out Northstar and Aurora in the process. Cyclops would turn Polaris over to refugee smuggler Valerie Cooper unaware that his brother was spying on him.; When a number of the Dark Beast's mutated animals would break out of their pens, Cyclops and Havok would quell the violence, and Havok would skirt around the truth he knew about his brother, waiting for the right time to oust him as leader of the EMF. Meanwhile, the Bedlam Brothers would learn that Scarlett was a spy, and arrest her just after she learned that she was pregnant with Havok's child. When Jean Grey would infiltrate Apocalypse's citadel, she would be captured by Havok and brought to the Dark Beast. When Cyclops would refuse to execute her, Havok, Cannonball and Amazon would attack him and turn him over to the Dark Beast before going to slay all those in the Slave Pens. Cyclops and Jean however would break free.; As Cyclops and Jean would free those in the slave pens and try to lead them to safety, the other members of the EMF would attempt to destroy them. The Bedlam Brothers, uneasy with the idea of slaying all the harmless slaves would defect and prevent Cannonball and Amazon from capturing Cyclops and Jean. They would flee from the scene. Havok would attempt to stop them however, he would be beaten into submission and left for dead, however he would survive the attack and follow after his brother.; Havok would track them to outskirts of Manhattan where he would kill Jean and attempt to slay his brother before being killed by Weapon X.; ===The Fall of Apocalypse===; Following the downfall of Apocalypse, the X-Men would help rebuild the United States and restore the government. All those who willingly aided Apocalypse would be sought out as war criminals.; The whereabouts of the Bedlam Brothers remains unrevealed.; Cyclops has been incarcerated following the downfall of Apocalypse.; Aurora and Northstar would flee to Canada where they would be slain by Weapon X and Kirika.; Lastly, Amazon, Cannonball, and their brother Icarus would attempt to get revenge against the X-Men for abandoning their sister Paige by attacking Washington D.C. and later holding Rogue and her son Charles before being slain by Magneto and Sunfire.

To this end, they developed weapons to counteract the Masters of the Matrix, and hardware to penetrate their mind defenses. At first their weapons could not even scratch mental creations of the Masters of the Matrix.

+History:
+Egghead assembled several costumed supervillains to aid him in his scheme to blackmail the United States. They gathered together in Canada where Egghead had constructed a nuclear bomb. Egghead then demanded that the president relinquish control of the country to him or he would destroy New York City. James Hudson's new team, the Flight, saw the broadcast and opposed the group. Despite their lack of training, the Flight defeated the Emissaries of Evil. The bomb, however, was activated during the altercation and Saint Elmo sacrificed himself to safely end the nuclear threat.; Later, when Egghead was released on parole after attacking his niece, Trish Starr, he sought revenge on Yellowjacket and the Defenders. He was able to steal a NASA space-lab from its launching base in Florida by tricking a guard. NASA was unaware of this as Egghead transmitted false computer reports to them while making his own modifications to the ship, transforming it into a giant arsenal.; Egghead decided that he would require help, so he sought out some of the criminals he had worked with in the past to form his Emissaries of Evil. He found the Rhino wandering around in the Mojave Desert after his battle with the Hulk. Egghead then located Solarr and recruited him to help in his quest. Lastly, Egghead completed his roster when he found the Cobalt Man floating through outer space in a state of suspended animation. Egghead used his technology to place one overpowering thought into his head, to destroy the Defenders.; Egghead sent his emissaries to the Sanctum Sanctorum of Doctor Strange searching for the mystical artifact known as the Star of Capistan. The Rhino and Solarr attacked the Defenders until they realized that the Defenders had never even heard of the Star. They returned to the space station, though Egghead punished them for failing to retrieve the gem. He then sent the Cobalt Man to destroy the Defenders, programming him to achieve critical mass. The Cobalt Man was freed of his brainwashing by Clea and the Red Guardian. After Solarr and the Rhino were defeated by the "Red Rajah" (Doctor Strange while possessed by the Star of Capistan), Egghead tried to defeat the Defenders by himself. The Cobalt Man, sick of being used as a pawn in the schemes of others, grabbed Egghead as he melted down, apparently killing them both.

Each member was forced to fight an Elemental that countered their powers perfectly. It wasn't until the Fantastic Four's leader Mister Fantastic suggested they swap foes were the Elementals seemingly destroyed. With the aid of Doctor Strange, Diablo was apprehended and the Tailsmans confiscated.; Some time later, Diablo attacked the Fantastic Four again with the Elementals, seemingly without the aid of the Tailsmans of Power. In addition to Fire, Air, Water and Earth, Diablo also included his latest creation the Trans-Mutant. However this time Diablo and his Elementals were defeated by the Fantastic Four and their allies Crystal and Ms. Marvel. When Sharon knocked Diablo unconscious the Elementals all vanished.; Diablo would later combine a new variation of his Elementals into a single being, the Elematrix.; Years later, the original Tailsmans of Power ended up in the hands of a Chinese despot known as Tarru who used the Elementals to amass a prison of slaves. When the Asgardian known as Valkyrie ventured into Taaru's domain, he sent the Elemntals to capture her. Made prisoner, Valkyrie broke free and battled Taaru and his minions. Ultimately, Valkryie won the battle, smashing the Talesmans into pieces, causing the Elementals to vanish. Valkyrie then left Taaru to the mercies of his former slaves.

+History:
+Since the beginning of Wilson Fisk's criminal career, the Enforcers, "Fancy" Dan, a diminutive gunman; Montana, a whip expert who generally wears a cowboy hat and trench coat; and Ox, a gigantic strongman, were his personal muscle. Shortly after Fisk took control of Turk Barrett's criminal business, Jefferson Davis, one of Turk's men, joined the Enforcers.; Fisk's activities, and thus the Enforcer's, were ceased when Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D. arrested them during an attempt of human trafficking, involving Mutant Growth Hormone.; Years later, Fisk returned to his activities and became the Kingpin of crime of New York City, with the Enforcers, minus Davis (who had been a S.H.I.E.L.D. mole), still on his side. Having seen a photograph of the trio accompanied by his uncle's killer, Spider-Man tracked them down as a possible lead to the Kingpin, but when he tried to question them a fight began. At first the hero underestimated them; Ox shrugged off a punch to the gut, then Montana managed to wrap his whip around Spider-Man's neck. Breaking loose, he swiftly webbed up the group, but his interrogation efforts were interrupted by their employer, Mr. Big, who gladly told Spider-Man where to find the Kingpin. Further discussion was prevented by the arrival of the FBI, whose surveillance operation had been disrupted by Spider-Man's actions; the wallcrawler speedily departed, leaving the Enforcers to the Feds.; Three nights later, the Kingpin confronted Mr. Big and forced the Enforcers to pick a side, ordering Montana and Ox to hold Mr. Big while he placed Spider-Man's captured mask over Mr. Big's head, then crushed his skull. Ox considered becoming a federal witness for his part in Mr. Big's death, feeling he was not a true man because he gave in to his fear of the Kingpin. Montana concurred, because they had broken an oath, but Fancy Dan felt it was foolish even to consider crossing the Kingpin. When Spider-Man again broke into the Kingpin's building, the Enforcers confronted him alongside Electro. Though outnumbered, Spider-Man prevailed - he tricked Electro into stunning Ox, webbed Dan's guns to his hands, cause a backfire, and nocked Montana out. Before departing, Spider-Man tried to convince the barely conscious Ox to confess to the police about the Kingpin's activities.; Months later, the Kingpin sent the Enforcers after his rebellious subordinate, Julio, who was gambling with Kingpin's money. Spider-Man arrived in time to stop Fancy Dan from shooting Julio, and the Enforcers were soon webbed up once again and left for the police. Once the Kingpin's lawyer had them released, they were warned that another failure would earn the Kingpin's wrath.; When the Daily Bugle stopped supporting Sam Bullit's campaign to become D.A. after learning of his ties to Kingpin, the Enforcers were sent to intimidate editor J. Jonah Jameson into reversing that stance. Spider-Man intervened, webbing up both Dan and Montana and beating a wounded Ox until Dan managed to fire a shot through the webbing and wing him; Ox then smashed Spider-Man against a car knocking him out. The delay allowed Jameson to recover his composure, and he stunned the trio by trying to interview them about their ties to Kingpin and Bullit, distracting them long enough for Spider-Man to revive and subdue the criminals. As security arrived, a web-bound Dan said he intended to break the team up; but the Enforcers later returned, battling Spider-Man, Black Cat, Shang-Shi, Iron Fist, Elektra, and Moon Knight alongside their new employer, Kingpin's rival, Hammerhead.

+History:
+The Elf with a Gun was a mysteriously homicidal figure that killed a number of seemingly random people before unceremoniously being run over by a truck.; Some time later, another Elf appeared, operating with a similar M.O. He and other Elves like him were servants of the alien Tribunals and were used by them as part of a complex and seemingly pointless scheme to break up the Defenders. Doctor Strange later determined the Tribunals' revelations to be a "cosmic hoax", leaving the true motives of the original Elf and the later ones unconfirmed.

+Equipment: Eliminators armor
+History:
+The Punisher was searching for a drug lord called El Caiman in Bogotá, when a man in an Eliminator armor appeared and massacred nearby civilians and one of El Caiman's men. Frank fought and took down the Eliminator, while saving El Caiman's daughter Lucinda. El Caiman refused and made a truce with the Punisher to take down the Eliminators. The Eliminators attacked and destroyed the villa, but Frank, El Caiman, and Lucinda were able to escape to an underground complex, where the drug lord kept a crocodile to kill his captive enemies. The Punisher and El Caiman finished off the last Eliminators, who they learned were sent by the High Evolutionary.; In the middle of the Florida Everglades, an army of the High Evolutionary's Eliminators arrived with a Spatial Dissonance Generator. When they activated the device it ripped a hole in reality, revealing the Nexus of All Realities. The Eliminators were reeling with pain from the rip in reality. Suddenly, blood began to drip out of the hole in existence. When it struck one of the Eliminators, it burned him down to the bone. They were contacted telepathically by the High Evolutionary, who told his minions to be brave as this mission was important to his genetic program and the fate of humanity.

+First appearance: Doctor Strange Vol 4 1
+Created by: Jason Aaron; Kevin Nowlan
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Trivia: The word Empirikul is a play on words. It is a different spelling of the word "empirical" meaning concerned with, or verifiable by observation or experience, while also mashing the words "cull", which means to selectively harness or kill, and "imperial", which is anything relating to an empire, together.
+History:
+The Empirikul was an army of robots and beasts led by the Imperator. The army was motivated by the death of their leader's parents at the hands of the magic authorities, the Blood Monks, when the Imperator was just a baby in his home dimension. This event caused the Imperator and his loyal robots to embark on a crusade across dimensions to "purify" all magic users by killing them. Some of their victims included Ice Duchess, Crimson Gypsy, Dr. Warlock, and Magister Szandor Sozo.; When they reached the dimension of Doctor Strange, the Empirikul assaulted several magical landmarks of the Earth until they reached the strongest of them all, Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum. The Imperator confronted Doctor Strange himself and defeated him, even after the sorcerer had siphoned all of Earth's magic to empower himself. The most prominent magic users of this dimension were defeated and brought to the front of the Sanctum Sanctorum along with Strange to be sacrificed. However, the old mage Monako interfered and teleported Strange and his colleagues away to safety, at the cost of his own life.; The Empirikul razed the Sanctum Sanctorum and searched the Earth for the sorcerers while the Imperator rested in their mothership. When he returned, the Imperator confronted the one threat of the Sanctum that none of his minions had managed to combat, the so-called Thing in the Cellar. While he was battling this creature, Doctor Strange and the other sorcerers arrived, armed with several artifacts which contained the last traces of magic in the world.; Strange, The Thing in the Cellar, and the Imperator all dueled while the magicians outside battled the robots and beasts. After being weakened and blinded by the milled powder of the Ancient One's skull, the Imperator fell to the combined power of Doctor Strange and The Thing in the Cellar. The Imperator's fall severed his connection to the rest of the Empirikul and his mothership, causing all of the army to shut down.

+First appearance: Web Warriors Vol 1 1
+Created by: Mike Costa; David Baldeón
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-1082
+History:
+This alliance of counterparts of Max Dillon from across the Multiverse roots in the death of the Spider-Man of Earth-449 at the hands of the Inheritor Morlun. The Max Dillon of said reality witnessed the event and was inspired by Spider-Man's assassin to find a way to travel through realities as easily as Morlun had done.; After picking up the electromagnetic signature of Morlun's interdimensional travel, Electro had Doctor Octopus design some means to achieve this feat. The final result was a portable device in the form of a bracelet, which was used by Dillon to travel through the Multiverse for his own gain. He eventually arrived to Earth-1082, a world where Mike Dillon was a famous genius, inventor and entrepreneur who used his powers to develop advanced electric equipment.; Max faced Mike, the two of them started working together, and Mike was able to map the Web of Life and Destiny. With an army of Doctors Octopi assembled for research purposes, the two Electros began building an army of their counterparts from different universes. While Mike Dillon became the leader of the Electro-Verse, Earth-449's Max Dillon gave such a poor performance in the organization that he was relegated to guard duty.; The Electro-Verse first took notice of a similar team made from counterparts of Spider-Man, the Web-Warriors, when they attacked Earth-9105 in search for silver for their equipment. A group of several Electros confronted the Spider-Woman of Earth-65 and the one from Earth-982, and captured the former when both tried to teleport away to search for reinforcements.; Earth-65's Spider-Woman managed to turn the dissatisfied Electro of Earth-449 against his team members, convincing him to teleport her to Mike Dillon's locations and overthrow him. Spider-Woman double-crossed Electro and knocked him out after arriving to Mike Dillon's lunar base on Earth-449. Meanwhile, the rest of the Warriors of the Great Web had a brief tussle against the Electro-Verse on Earth-9105 when they arrived there to search for clues to Earth-65's Spider-Woman whereabouts, and the Electros had returned for the silver they had previously tried to steal.; A handful of Electros traced the energy signature of the Web-Warriors' teleporters back to their base in Earth-001, and raided Loomworld, forcing the Web-Warriors to return and protect their home. The Electro-Verse overpowered the Warriors of the Great Web, and forced them to retreat to the rustic Earth-803.; On Earth-449, Spider-Woman confronted Mike Dillon, who had turned himself into a disembodied gestalt being known as the Battery. Overwhelmed by the Battery, Spider-Woman retreated with Earth-449's Electro to Earth-982. From Earth-982, Spider-Woman and Electro teleported to Earth-112255, the location of the Eletros' navigation system, and destroyed it, leaving them blind to traverse the Web of Life and Destiny.; After being informed of Spider-Woman's accomplishment, the Web-Warriors used a jerry-rigged contraption to contact the Electro-Verse and lure them to Earth-803. Almost the entirety of the Electro-Verse arrived to Earth-803, and the Warriors of the Great Web confronted them and held the line until they could create a Faraday cage using a special conductive webbing, in order to neutralize the Electros' power. Spider-Woman also forcibly teleported Mike Dillon to the cage.; The Electro army remained trapped withing the cage for several days. However, they were freed as a consequence of an earthquake caused when the Master Weaver reconnected Earth-803 to the Web of Life and Destiny. The Electros' lack of efficiency due to undernourishment was compensated by their numbers, forcing the Warriors of the Great Web to assemble reinforcements from different realities. The battle against the Electros and the Spider-People was a close match until the Battery got hold of the Arachno-Fighter of a Spider-Man, a virtually indestructible robot.; In order to stop the Electros, Ben Parker sacrificed himself and had his mind absorbed into the collective of the Battery. The presence of Ben's conscience drastically altered the Battery's personality, and demanded their fellow Electros to stop fighting. The electrical capacity of the Electros army was subsequently unleashed across the Web of Life and Destiny to save it from destruction.; Once the dust settled, the Battery promised to disperse the Electro-Verse and send its members back to their respective realities.

The Hulk demanded that his predecessor stop them at once, but Agamemnon informed him that once activated, nothing could shut down the Endless Knights. When Jason threatened to torture the answer out of Agamemnon, the former leader of the Pantheon told them that he was telling the truth and there was nothing that they could do.; As the evacuation of the Mount continued, the Hulk confronted Agamemnon in his cell. The former leader of the Pantheon told the Hulk that he lied, there was one way to stop the Endless Knights: his own death. When the Hulk asked what they were up against, Agamemnon explained that the Endless Knights were a variation on the Asgardian Destroyer armor. When the Hulk asked why, Agamemnon explained that he enjoyed building things up so he could tear them down. Suddenly, there was an explosion, signaling the arrival of the Endless Knights.; While above the battle raged on with the Endless Knights. During the fight, Cassie was horrified that one of the Knights had been created by the corpse of her father. The Hulk realized, much to his horror, that the Knights were made out of the remains of dead members of the Pantheon. With the apparent demise of Agamemnon, the Endless Knights exploded, decimating the Mount.

+===Origin===; The best soldiers at Roxxon's disposal, the Elite Roxxon Strike Team fought in every country around the globe to protect their corporation's interests.; ===Enhancement into B.E.R.S.E.R.K.E.R.s===; When Dario Agger, C.E.O. of Roxxon, approached Loki in order to gather allies and firepower against his other allies of the Dark Council, Loki led Agger and the Elite Roxxon Strike Team into the cave of a dragon, and ordered them to slay it and then drink its fiery blood so they could be powered by its magical properties like how Bodolf did. Once they drank the dragon's blood, the members of the Roxxon Elite Strike Force were turned into hideous and enraged giant creatures.; Some time later, when Agger was kidnapped by Exterminatrix and Silver Samurai, the Elite Roxxon Strike Team was deployed to rescue their boss. However, as they prepared themselves to go into battle, their boss' kidnappers invaded Roxxon Island and sent their Mindless Ones to attack them once they were confronted. All of them were eventually knocked out by Thor.; A B.E.R.S.E.R.K.E.R. was later dispatched as security into a New York City implantation of Roxxon. There, he tried to stop the Clash and his Vox Populi from stealing the place. As Clash's henchmen distributed stolen jewels among the civilians nearby, the B.E.R.S.E.R.K.E.R. attacked them, forcing Spider-Man to intervene. As he discovered a facility turning stray animals into living weapons, the B.E.R.S.E.R.K.E.R. try to crush him from behind, only to miss him and destroy the facility.; When Roxxon targeted Iron Man in order to help A.I.M. in their takeover of Stark Unlimited, Justine Hammer sent two B.E.R.S.E.R.K.E.R.s to enforce an unauthorized lockout in a Stark factory as a cover to upload a magic-infused virus into his servers, which eventually spread into his entire armory. The same two B.E.R.S.E.R.K.E.R.s later helped Hammer raid a Long Island City owned by Stark to steal his Mysterium Armor.

+History:
+The Elementals were four threats staged by a group of former Stark Industries employees led by Quentin Beck. Following the death of Iron Man, they intended to faciliate Beck's rise to stardom as the world's new greatest hero. Using tactical combat drones combined with advanced holographic technology stolen from Stark Industries, Beck's crew orchestrated the catastrophic attack of different creatures around the globe which Beck would appear to defeat. In order to reach his endgame, Beck had the objective to gain the trust of Peter Parker, Stark's protégé who had inherited his mentor's access to E.D.I.T.H., a sophisticated A.I. that contained access to a global security network which included defense satellites with thousands of combat drones. Beck intended to manipulate Peter into handing him control over the defense systems.; As part of the ruse, Beck had a new origin invented for himself and these creatures that became known as the Elementals; both would come from an alternate Earth codenamed "Earth-833." The Elementals were born in stable orbits within the black holes, creatures formed from the four classical elements (fire, earth, air, and water). They materialized on Quentin's homeworld and ravaged it before leading to its destruction. They appeared on the new Earth as a consequence of a tear between both universes, and attacked the same locations that they did on Earth-833.; Beck and his crew first staged the appearance of the Earth Elemental in Ixtenco, Mexico, and it was used to lure Nick Fury and Maria Hill so that they would meet Beck. The Air Elemental's attack was staged in Morocco afterwards. The Water Elemental made its appearance in Venice, where Peter Parker was taking a vacation, in order to pull him into Beck's plan. Having gained notoriety as the superhero Mysterio, Beck subsequently staged the rampage of the Fire Elemental in Prague and teamed-up with Peter's alter-ego, Spider-Man. After pretending to make a near-suicidal move to destroy the Fire Elemental from within, Beck managed to make Peter give him access over E.D.I.T.H.; The amount of drones Beck gained access to permitted him to stage an even bigger attack, an "Avengers-level threat" that would cement Beck's position as the world's biggest hero. For this attack, Beck used the drones to cast an illusion that all four Elementals had merged together into a single being and attacked the Tower Bridge in London. By this time, Spider-Man had discovered that Mysterio was a farce, and managed to neutralize many of the drones that were casting the holographic merged Elemental, compromising its believability, and eventually forcing Mysterio to drop the illusion altogether.

Following an unfortunate confrontation with an exploding Celestial, Carina was crystalized and En Dwi was cast into space. Taneleer inadvertently shattered his daughter's crystal form so he became the Collector to gather them in hope of piecing her back together. Meanwhile, En Dwi became the Grandmaster by mastering the Battlerealm's terrain and physics to rescue himself.; The two survivng Elders became key figures in the Battlerealm's history. The Collector partnered with the Maestro to organize the seventh Contest of Champions and took full control after his defeat against the Summoner. When the Grandmaster returned, he challenged the Collector's dominion over the Contest and usurped him. Grandmaster also introduced his fellow Elder, the Champion, into the Battlerealm to fight in the Contest. The shards of Carina were reconstructed and she was revived with the new ability to manipulate ISO-8. After the Summoner outplayed the Grandmaster, Carina formed a council to determine the Battlerealm's future. The Trader also joined the Battlerealm to set up his shop on Battleworld.; As the result of the combined reigns of the Collector and Grandmaster, Ouroboros formed to oppose any Elder of the Universe, including Carina.

+History:
+The European Defense Initiative is an European Union superhuman team equivalent to the American team, the Ultimates. The EDI consisted of supermen as byproducts of the European Super-Soldier Program, representing to their European nations, all of whom are empowered with exo-suits designed by Professor Sir James Braddock, who oversees the the EDI super soldier program, and led by Captain Britain. The EDI was too far behind the Americans due to their very effective combination of independent developers and government-sponsored programs.; The EDI was contracted with the Ultimates in tracking down and apprehending Thor, whom they believed him to be Thorlief Golmen, a man who enrolled in the European Super-Soldier Program who went mad into believing he is the actual Norse God. In reality, the EDI and their allies were tricked by Loki, under the guise of Gunnar Golmen who suppose to work for the EDI, in order to remove Thor and dismantling the Ultimates from interfering in the Liberators' attack on America. Once this attack had happened, the EDI bypassed the Liberators in New York City, freeing captured heroes such as the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Spider-Man, and joining the fight alongside them.; During the events of Ultimatum, the EDI was in London where Captain Britain was discussing how to take action against Magneto in the Houses of Parliament. This was cut short by the intrusion of Multiple Man who sets a series of bombs which destroyed Parliament and everyone inside it. The aftermath of Ultimatum led the European Union into reconstituting the EDI, creating Excalibur-class super-soldiers led by Captain Britain's successor, Jamie Braddock.; The reconstituted EDI was first sent into action to negotiate rowdy Asgardian Gods which degenerated into a battle after Jamie Braddock displayed disrespect to Thor. The battle came to a halt when both combatants discovered the Dome, which was the base of the Children of Tomorrow. The Children of Tomorrow attacked the group. Captains Italy and France were killed, while Captains Britain and Spain were the only ones who survived.

They rescued Landers and offered him sanctuary, but he insisted that he had to go back to the clinic and save his friends (the D.P.7). Walt placed a mental block in Landers' mind, causing him to forget the ESPeople's existence, as a safety precaution, which had the side effect of causing Landers to become immune to the mental powers of any other paranormal.; Later, the ESPeople encountered the lost and wandering Nightmask, who had been psychically shocked by trying to enter Landers' mental block, but they also removed his memory of the encounter.

+Notes: It's unknown if their name refers to the being Eternity.
+History:
+Eternity's Children are three superpowered beings, whose coming had been foretold in a prophecy given to the first synod of Patchworld.; According to the prophecy, Eternity's Children are three very powerful children that can either bring the destruction or the salvation of the galaxy. The individual Children are:; The Annihilator: who will try to destroy the universe and bring about the next.; The Preserver: The universe's greatest hero, who will oppose the Annihilator to save the current universe.; The Pretender: Whose destiny is to perish in the fight between the Annihilator and the Preserver.; The prophecy about the children formed the base of two rivaling cults on Patchworld: the Protectorate of Innocence, and the Wrath of Fallen. The former wanting to preserve the children, while the latter wanted to destroy them. To prevent either fraction or anyone deemed unworthy from discovering the planet on which Eternity's Children are destined to be born, the second half of the prophecy which contained this information was hidden on an artificial planetoid named the Puzzle Planet. The first half of the prophecy, and the starmap containing the location of Puzzle Planet, was in turn split in 4 fragments and distributed among the founding races of Patchworld.; In an attempt to finally get his hands on the sacred knowledge, which would allow him to become the leader of the Skrull Empire, Warpriest Kh'oja stole the four fragments, and framed Power Pack for it. With help of Franklin Richards, Power Pack was able to escape captivity and found the four stolen fragments on board Kh'oja's Smartship Letha. They likewise discovered the starmap and thus were able to beat Kh'oja to the Puzzle Planet. There, the team managed to solve the three riddles that blocked the entrance to the room where the prophecy was supposedly hidden. Kh'oja followed them there, but all he found inside were the skeletal remains of those who found the puzzle planet earlier, and a set of boxes that all proved to be empty. When Power Pack noticed the room was being sealed shut again, they quickly escaped while Kh'oja stayed behind.; After escaping, Power Pack realized that the boxes were just a decoy, and the information regarding Eternity's Children was actually hidden in the three puzzles. Based on what they had seen, they determined that the location of Eternity's Children was in fact, Earth. This revelation made Power Pack wonder if it was perhaps possible that they themselves were Eternity's Children.

+History:
+The Ennows were a team of robots created by the S.H.I.E.L.D./A.I.M. to fight an invasion by intelligent zombies called the Respawned as machines couldn't be zombified. However, the Respawned eventually wiped out nearly all of humankind. Consequently, the Ennows began fighting for their own survival against the Respawned. Some humans chose to expose themselves to the Transmode Virus and join the Ennows so they wouldn't turn into zombies. They created a fortified city called the Phalanx Wall to protect themselves.; While battling the Respawned, the Ennows encountered a group of human survivors. After a fight nearly broke out, the survivors were taken into Ennow custody. The Ennows planned to expose the survivors to the Transmode Virus to eliminate the possibility that they would be zombified. Before this could be done, a group of super-strong Respawned managed to smash their way through the Phalanx Wall, forcing the Ennows there to battle them and allowing the human survivors to escape.; A few Ennows were swallowed up by the Flerken Chewie and released by her to help fight against the Respawned in Limbo.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Equipment: Blue cloaks; Separate Armor Plating Components
+Weapons: Twin Cursed Blades: Centuries old rapier blades, with cursed voices compelling wielders to perform acts of evil.
+History:
+===Ancestral Origins===; The eponymous blades were forged in Spain, from a stone which fell from the heavens with seemingly limitless powers. When the brothers who discovered the stone applied smithing to the ore, they melted a powerful steel-like metal and forged a pair of swords. However, those brothers wrote that the swords influenced them to conquer new lands and they set sail for the Americas. However, their own bloodlust drove them to slaughter many indigenous Mesoamericans in search for glory and proof of strength.; But as the Conquistador brothers violated life and land alike, the blades called out to more worthy hands, leading some surviving natives to slay the brothers and take the swords. With the brothers slain, the natives and their descendants took the swords into their familial custody, but no subsequent generation wished to wield the blades nor wished to destroy them. In the modern day, Ray and Luis took up the blades with an aim to bring "justice" owed to their family.; ===Present Day===; Ray and Luis took up the swords with the aim of reclaiming lost glory by robbing banks for perceived owed reparations. The brothers encountered Spider-Woman immediately as they debuted, resulting in a chase where Spider-Woman apprehended Luis while Ray escaped. Seeing his brother in NYPD custody, Ray swore vengeance and plotted to free him.; When Ray attacked Metro Correctional, Spider-Woman was there beforehand as Luis recounted the lore of the swords. As Luis expected his brother to deliver his sword, Ray was so consumed by the blades' influence to defeat Spider-Woman that she trapped one blade in a wall. But Luis confronted a bewitched Ray and failed to influence him, so he had to dismember Ray's hand to break his enthrallment. Luis then fought and failed to defeat Spider-Woman, resulting in both brothers' incarcerations. For six months, Luis crafted a cybernetic hand for Ray in the prison workshop, planning revenge on Spider-Woman.; ===Revenge on Spider-Woman===; After some time, Espadas Gemelas joined Anti-Arach9 under the command of Octavia Vermis.

+Reality: Earth-22145
+Base of operations: The Abbey, Salem, Massachusetts
+History:
+The Esoteric Mystical Order, Knights of Intellect and Dimensional Spiritualism, aka EMO KIDS was a club for magic users in the Abbey organized by Nico Minoru that focused on getting back the Hunter's memories of their death that were partially lost during their resurrection. Nico originally named the club GOTH NITE for "The Greater Order of Thoughts Hermetic: Nerds Interpreting Thaumaturgical Esoterica" but changed it quite early on, and the meetings were held irregularly on the nights when everyone involved was available.; During their first night meeting, Nico invited the Hunter to join the EMO Kids and led them to the Altar where Doctor Strange and Magik were waiting. Nico, Illyana, and Strange explained that even though the reanimation spell brought Hunter's spirit back to their body successfully, not all of their memories were intact. The EMO KIDS believed that Hunter's memories of their battle against Lilith were still there, but buried, and that recovering them could provided an advantage in their current fight. Nico's spell helped Hunter remember racing through the Abbey Grounds toward a threat, alone, unprepared for the fight. The EMO KIDS all saw the vision and were excited by the progress.; During the second meeting, Strange asked to lead, believing that the fundamentals of the first attempt were sound, and that by using additional mystic power they could restore more of Hunter's memories. The visions picked up where they left off at the last meeting, with Hunter racing through the Abbey Grounds and bursting into a clearing to find Lilith. The vision was interrupted by the appearance of Caretaker who heard their activity and demanded to know what was going on. After it was explained to her, she asked to observe the next ritual.; For the third meeting, Illyana wanted to take the lead and to use her power to push Hunter harder than the other two. The vision continued from Hunter's last memory of being with Lilith in the clearing. As Hunter prepared to attack, Lilith said that she never sought to harm them, telling that to remake the world, she needs Hunter by her side. Caretaker then put a stop to the spell and forbade doing it again. She explained that hearing Lilith's voice, even as an echo, created a magical link that she could follow back through.; On the fourth meeting, Caretaker took charge and cocooned Hunter's mind to block Lilith's memory link, resuming the ritual from where the last meeting left off. Lilith was trying to convince Hunter to join her and Hunter refused. Lilith believes that removing Hunter's collar would set their true self free to join her. Lilith raises the Darkhold to use its power to remove the collar when everything went black. Caretaker believed there was nothing more and guessed that the power of the Darkhold was too much for Lilith to control and the same spell killed her and both.; There were not supposed to be any more meetings, but that changed with the return of Scarlet Witch who believed there was more to the how the Hunter's life ended, having sensed subtle magic that clouded perception. Wanda claimed that her magic could strip illusion from reality, and asked Hunter for their last memory, which was Lilith trapping them with the Darkhold. The ritual began, and in the vision Hunter was unable to move, but heard themselves shout in a strange voice while their body moved not of their own will. Lilith struggled herself, and as Hunter's hand reached for the Darkhold, they began to see fear in Lilith's eyes. Hunter touched the Darkhold, and after a wave of pain everything went white. Caretaker's theory is that since both Hunter and Lilith share the magic of the Blood, a sort of mystical feedback was created when they both touched the book.

+First appearance: Excalibur Special Edition Vol 1 1
+Created by: Chris Claremont; Alan Davis
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Founded by Captain Britain, Meggan, Nightcrawler, Shadowcat and Rachel Summers in order to continue the legacy of the X-Men who were supposed to be dead after the Mutant Massacre.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Braddock Lighthouse, Cornwall, England; Formerly:; The Lake House, Empress Matilda Docks, Rotherhithe, London, England; Braddock Manor, Maldon, County Essex, England; Muir Island, Scotland
+Notes: Their lake house is property of Captain Britain's sister, Psylocke. Part of the lake house is a training area where the team practice their combat skills.
+Trivia: The name is taken from Excalibur, the sword wielded by King Arthur in the Arthurian Legends.
+History:
+===The Sword is Drawn===; The supposed deaths of the X-Men during a war against the Adversary had a devastating repercussion in the lives of their friends, family and allies. The former X-Men Shadowcat and Nightcrawler, who were under the care of Moira MacTaggert on Muir Island due to injuries sustained during the Morlock massacre, were devastated by the incident, much alike Captain Britain, brother to the X-Man Psylocke, and his girlfriend Meggan. Meggan approached Shadowcat and Nightcrawler for assistance in helping Captain Britain, who, in grief, had succumbed to alcoholism. They were interrupted by the bounty-hunters of Technet, led by Gatecrasher and sent by Majestrix Saturnyne. Saturnyne targetted the former X-Man Phoenix, a cosmic-level threat to reality but dear friend to Shadowcat and Nightcrawler. Nightcrawler managed to escape Technet in a confrontation. At the time, Phoenix had escaped from the insane Mojoworld and found herself back on Earth in London, England, where she was pursued by Mojo's Warwolves. Even with the Warwolves' interference, Technet had the advantage, capturing Shadowcat, Meggan and Phoenix, prompting Nightcrawler and Captain Britain to team up to help them. Despite this setback, both groups of attackers were subdued; Technet teleported away and the Warwolves escaped to the sewers of London. The five superheroes decided to form a new team to continue the legacy of the X-Men. Phoenix named the team Excalibur after the magical sword of King Arthur and Captain Britain provided them headquarters in his Lighthouse.; Counting with sporadical support from the grumpy police Commander Dai Thomas in their mission, Excalibur found imperative to stop the Warwolves, who caused mayhem in London. Shadowcat masqueraded as Phoenix to ambush them, leading Excalibur to apprehend them and send them to the London Zoo. Next, they tended to a prison break in the Crossmoor Prison, during which inmate Juggernaut crushed the team before being put down by Phoenix. Next, the team's banker and Captain Britain's old flame Courtney Ross was kidnapped to the Murderworld by the sadistic Arcade, who wished to pester Captain Britain. Arcade had employed the Crazy Gang for his schemes and the dysfunctional mercenaries were able to change bodies with many members of the Excalibur. In the end, Ross and Shadowcat teamed up to help the team. Although Arcade was arrested, Ross met her final fate regardless since she was coldly murdered and replaced by her alternative reality doppelgänger, Sat-Yr-Nin.; When Phoenix was dragged to New York City by sensing baby brother was in danger, Excalibur found themselves among the demonic Inferno that Madelyne Pryor, the Goblin Queen, had cast. Meggan was extremely susceptible to the vile atmosphere and immediately surrendered to N'astirh, becoming the Goblin Princess. Among much torment, Shadowcat exorcized Meggan using Magik's inherited Soulsword. Meanwhile, Phoenix managed to escape. The demonic invasion was over, but Excalibur had wounds to tend to, especially Captain Britain's and Meggan's unstable powers.; ===Cross-Time Caper===; Moira MacTaggert and her bodyguard Callisto were replaced by alternate versions of themselves from a world where the Nazi party had control over Britain. W.H.O.'s Brigadier Sandy Stuart and her scientist brother Professor Alistaire Stuart investigated the weird interdimensional incursions and had the interlopers under custody, contacting Excalibur for help. Meanwhile, that alternate reality's version of Excalibur, the Lightning Force, came to assess the situation as well and harmed Shadowcat's pet alien dragon Lockheed in the Lighthouse. After a fight, Shadowcat and Alistaire Stuart met the source of the incursions, the robotic sentient portal Widget, and studied way to revert the situation.; During the research, Shadowcat was contacted by the X-Babies, child versions of the X-Men from Mojoworld, who were at the time resisting Mojo's cruel games. Counting with Excalibur's help, Shadowcat helped Ricochet Rita help the X-Babies. After that, Excalibur was able to return the invaders back to their twisted Nazi Earth. They kept their Train, which was fueled by an enslaved other-dimensional dragon. However, the alternate Moira betrayed them just before returning, bombing the train. As a consequence, the locomotive took Excalibur and Professor Stuart to travel between parallel dimensions.; Their first stop was a fairy-tale world, where they helped the vibrant prince William in his quest to ascend to the throne. There, Captain Britain was gifted a new uniform, which stabilized his powers, while Shadowcat was forced into becoming William's consort princess by the Queen Mother. However, a young alternate version of Shadowcat attacked the throne for she had been in love with William. The immature girl was confronted, leading to Shadowcat's being released and William taking her hand in marriage. With the train repaired and Widget powered up, the group found themselves briefly transported in a chaotic Earth, which had been rebuilt by the Impossible Man after Galactus had consumed it; this was followed by numerous adventures across different Earths in a cross-time caper.; Next, the train wrecked in a world out of science fiction, where the usurper Anjulie ruled with an iron fist the realm which was the birthright of princess turned pirate Kymri. With Excalibur subdued, Nightcrawler faced the challenge of liberating the world from Anjulie. With Phoenix's powers and Meggan's touch, the ruined Earth was restored. In another Earth, ruled by the Global Grand Prix, Excalibur teamed up with the Dirty Angels to combat an alternate version of Captain Britain's eldest brother, Jamie. Unbeknownst to Excalibur, Sat-Yr-Nin had got hold the insanely mad mainstream Jamie, who counted with reality-altering powers at quantum levels. Shadowcat was able to return to her home reality to stop the influence of the mainstream Jamie, while Meggan used the powers of the X-Men to defeat his alternate. In the end, Excalibur won, but Shadowcat was left home separated from her teammates. Sat-Yr-9 took this opportunity to approach and manipulate Shadowcat.; Excalibur arrived at a world ruled by imperial forces. The X-Men of the British Empire had Crusader X investigate the incursion of a train similar to those Excalibur had witnessed. He arrested Nightcrawler, believing him to be a Prussian spy. Meanwhile, Phoenix unsuccessfully attempted to save Jean Grey from being corrupted by the Shadow King. After freeing Nightcrawler, Excalibur helped Phoenix knock out the Shadow King's Iron Man. Attracted by an alternate Shadowcat, Excalibur found themselves trapped in an Earth characterized by a polluted environment and a brutal totalitarian regime of justice. They were subdued by the ruthless enforcer Justicer Bull, but managed to earn respect by defeating the malevolent Darkchilde.; Eventually, their interdimensional adventure was interrupted by Majestrix Saturnyne, who accused them of disturbing the space-time continuum. Excalibur hid Phoenix from Saturnyne by having her impersonate Shadowcat. In the Captain Britain Corps' Hub, Excalibur resisted the Corpsmen. Saturnyne fixed Widget's circuitry so it could lead Excalibur home and let them go by pretending she had not seen through Phoenix's silly ruse. Back to their Lighthouse, Excalibur was shocked to witness the presence of the world-eater Galactus. Threatened by the power levels of Phoenix, Galactus had decided to scatter her energies in outer space. After a world-threatening battle against Galactus, Phoenix decided to surrender and sacrifice herself. Death itself showed Galactus that Phoenix played a role for the balance of the cosmos and he ultimately chose to spare her.; Possessed by the devilish energies of the Darkhold tome, Meggan succumbed to madness and attacked her teammates. Thanks to Doctor Strange, she was exorcized. When Nightcrawler finally considered the possibility of Shadowcat not being lost in an alternate Earth, he was unfortunately brainwashed along the rest of Excalibur by Mesmero, who had been facing problems with the government and had been blackmailed by the Fenris Twins. Mesmero had Excalibur fight the Fenris, and the incident caught Shadowcat's attention. Lockheed broke Mesmero's influence, and Excalibur was freed, defeated the villains and finally had Shadowcat bank to their ranks.; ===Reunion===; When Earth mysteriously merged with that which was home of Lightning Force, Phoenix experienced immense distress with no counterpart to merge with. Excalibur resisted the merge and saw their reality becoming a Nazi-ruled society of oppression. They opposed the Fürher's lieutenants of terror Herr Xavier and the Red Skull, who attempted to rejuvenate Hitler. Phoenix led Xavier to madness and that separated the two worlds once again, restoring reality.; Excalibur assessed rising tensions concerning the Darkmoor Research Centre, involved with allegations of illegal experiments. Silver Sable's Outlaws intervened, claiming their wishes to reacquire Symkarian technology. The two teams learned that one of Arnim Zola's robotic creations used Darkmoor to conduct vile cloning experiments.; Soon after, Doctor Doom approached Shadowcat, wishing for the Soulsword to use the substance Promethium from Limbo to provide the world with renewable energy. Excalibur complied to help him, but they were betrayed. Doctor Doom ascended as the rule of Limbo. The Lady of the Lake summoned the West Coast Avengers to defeat Doctor Doom's plans of commanding an army of demons. With Darkoth's help, Doom was defeated before he could cause the collapse of Limbo. However, Lockheed was left severely wounded by Doom's attack. The X-Men and X-Factor arrived at the hospital he had been treated. Soon, Dai Thomas led Excalibur to realize the friends they used to believe to be dead were in fact the Warwolves, who had escaped the zoo and targetted Phoenix again. After defeating the Warwolves, the Excalibur finally decided to keep in touch with the X-Men.; ===Necrom===; Gatecrash envisioned a plan to punish Excalibur for having ruined her mission on Earth of capturing Phoenix by creating the self-detonating Hard-Boiled Henry to explode Excalibur's Lighthouse. Technet attempted to capture them, but Saturnyne's agents interrupted the battle to analyze Widget and announce Technet's permanent exile on Earth. A desperate Gatecrashed vanished, leaving Technet with Excalibur to rebuild the ruins of the Lighthouse. Their presence proved to be disruptive, especially for Captain Britain, who got angry with their nonsensical habits. This escalated to a burst of rage, causing Captain Britain to brutally injure Nightcrawler due to jealousy over his connection to Meggan. Meggan left in distress, being followed by Phoenix. Meanwhile, Captain Britain was put on trial by the Captain Britain Corps for misconduct.; Phoenix and Meggan went on a self-discovery journey for both of them. Captain Britain was sentenced in Otherworld for not recognizing his superiors' authority, but protected by Omniversal Guardian Roma. Shadowcat studied strange cases with Professor Stuart and W.H.O.. With no Excalibur around, Nightcrawler had Technet to assist Commander Dai Thomas deal with crises concerning an invisible thief who had been collecting mystic artifacts. In his activities, Nightcrawler clashed with government's agent Micromax. The thief was revealed to be Necrom, a dread lord who had ruined Ee'rath. The greatest champion of Ee'rath Kylun followed Necrom to Earth through Excalibur's Lighthouse. Kylun was, in fact, mutant who had been transported to Ee'rath by Widget as a child. Moreover, another invader happened upon the Lighthouse by accident: the alien warrior Cerise of the Ghrand Jahr. Technet Earth left with their former leader, Wardog, after knowing about its imminent destruction. After having learned Roma had schemed for the creation of Excalibur, Captain Britain returned home simultaneous to Phoenix and Meggan. Kylun then shared the urgent need of tackling Necrom.; Shadowcat summoned Excalibur after W.H.O. found a strange chamber underground with something living inside it. It was the Anti-Phoenix and it was accidentally released by Excalibur. Excalibur was then joined by Feron and the monks who had raised him to be Phoenix's host, as they had awaited for the rise of the Anti-Phoenix. The vampiric Necrom was able to absorb the Anti-Phoenix to empower himself. Meanwhile, back to their Lighthouse, Excalibur found Widget totally rebuilt, but apparently dormant. Necrom caused a compression of multiple realities, with the Lighthouse being the nexus of it, wishing for the Phoenix Force. Necrom wished to use the Phoenix Force to seize the power matrix from Otherworld, channelled through the Lighthouse, to empower himself as a god. Excalibur and Phoenix fought him. Necrom attempted to siphon the Phoenix, but the access to an unlimited source of power burned him out to death. With Necrom dead, a pretty much alive Merlyn revealed himself as the mastermind behind many events surrounding Excalibur. Before Merlyn could accomplish Necrom's plan himself, his daughter Roma asked Meggan to destroy the Lighthouse across the Multiverse, severing the stability of the matrix, which faded away. Established at Braddock Manor, Excalibur finally were free, no longer being anyone's pawns.; ===Dark Truths===; A comatose Phoenix was examined by Professor Xavier and his X-Men. After her connection with the Phoenix Force was explained, she departed to space. Meanwhile, in an investigation carried out by Dai Thomas, Excalibur found the Crazy Gang in a Wonderland pocket realm created by Technet's missing member Joyboy and the Red Queen, which had been populated by ordinary townspeople who lived nearby. Deciding to leave the Crazy Gang in peace, Excalibur peacefully lost one of their opponents.; When Excalibur threw a party for their friends and allies at the Braddock Manor, one of the invitees was Sat-Yr-9, who still impersonated Courtney Ross. Sat-Yr-9 had Jamie Braddock secretly gate-crash the celebration, which caused the death of Sandy Stuart. This caught Excalibur by surprise, and Jamie easily defeated all of those present. Sat-Yr-9 then revealed her true identity. For being immune to Jamie's reality-shaping powers, Meggan gave Excalibur some advantage in the fight, and Psylocke telepathically defeated Jamie. A disappointed Shadowcat knock Sat-Yr-9 out, but the villain was able to furtively escape.; Excalibur searched for clues about Sat-Yr-9's criminal empire and ran into incidents related to the mutant transmuter Tom Jones. Jones and his mother had been captured by Trolls, and he was forced to create gold for the monsters. The X-Men were contacted by Jones and teamed up with Excalibur to help him. Nightcrawler pretended to be one of the Trolls to sabotage their plans. In the end, Jones was saved and the Trolls who were innocent were relocated to the Crazy Gang's Wonderland.; Some allies of Excalibur, including Professor Stuart and Micromax, were secretly kidnapped by Warpies, orphaned children who had been morphed by Jaspers Warp. Nightcrawler, Shadowcat and Cerise were captured under Agent Peter's orders. Since all of them were foreigners to the United Kingdom, Agent Peter used his powers as a federal agent to restrict them and officially dissolute Excalibur. In the base of Cloud Nine, Agent Peter argued the Warpies suffered from genetic destabilization and needed treatment, with Excalibur being forced to help in finding a solution. Meanwhile, Kylun, Captain Britain and Meggan were also taken into custody. In fact, Agent Peter wished to control superhumans in Britain. He had a shapeshifting Warpie impersonate Shadowcat to convince Nightcrawler of his ideals and pretended to have Meggan on stasis to ensure Captain Britain's compliance. In the end, Captain Britain overcame his machinations, and Nightcrawler was able to rescue his teammates and lead a riot against Agent Peter, foiling his plans.; ===Days of Future Yet to Come===; During the incident in Cloud Nine, Phoenix returned to Excalibur. She claimed she was decided to down the mutant-hating rule that prevailed in the dystopic future she came from. Widget was revealed to have been conceived in Phoenix's futuristic reality from future Shadowcat's consciousness. She had erratically travelled from the future to the present and was used by the vicious Ahab, who had enslaved Phoenix in the past, to recapture her with Sentinels. Ultimately, Phoenix and Widget were arrested by Ahab. Excalibur was drafted into the future during the ordeal and teamed up with the R.C.X. resistance to save them.; Ahab wished to extend Sentinel oppression against mutants to other realities after realizing that Phoenix had been able to travel between dimensions. Excalibur seized control of a Sentinel unit to infiltrate Ahab's base and rescue Phoenix and Widget, who in turn reprogrammed the Sentinels to protect all life instead of exterminating mutants. As such, Ahab was stopped by his own machines, but managed to escape. In the end, Phoenix returned with Excalibur to the present. Tragically, Captain Britain did not make it to the present, getting lost in between the timelines. Meggan was left in catatonic state due to Captain Britain's disappearance. Feron was dragged into her crisis and went missing by tapping into her elemental powers.; When mourning the loss of Captain Britain, Excalibur was attacked by the Starjammers, who accused Cerise of being a dangerous criminal and put her under arrest. Her teammates secretly followed her to the prison-planet Krag in the Shi'ar Galaxy. The team learned she had been forced to be a conqueror for a rogue mission of the Shi'ar Empire. Ultimately, she chose to stay with Empress Lilandra to compensate for her former crimes much to Nightcrawler's disappointment. After that, Kylun and Micromax left the team to tend to personal matters.; Shadowcat, Nightcrawler and Phoenix went to the Muir Island to protect Dr. Moira MacTaggert when Magneto threatened the world with his powers. Professor X then took the opportunity to have Shadowcat trick the defective X-Man Colossus into leaving Magneto's Acolytes and go to Muir Isle for therapy. Colossus still decided to remain with the Acolytes, however. Nightcrawler then re-established Excalibur on the Muir Isle, where they would assist Moira in her mission of finding a cure for the Legacy Virus. The isle was subsequently attacked by the Upstart Siena Blaze who wished to collect data on Proteus' genome. After being attacked, Siena Blaze teleported away. During her attack, Moira's new research partner Dr. Rory Campbell was washed up on the Muir Isle shores.; At the Braddock Manor, Meggan was found in extreme distress. Nightcrawler contacted his foster sister and lover, the sorceress Amanda Sefton, to analyze Meggan's condition. Meanwhile, Meggan noticed that Captain Britain had been attempting to return to the present through Phoenix. Since he would replace her existence, Phoenix ignored his interactions. Sefton cast a spell to retrieve Captain Britain. Phoenix ultimately decided to sacrifice herself and exchange places with him to give him an opportunity to live. However, he returned drastically changed, adopting the new alias of the unstable Britannic.; ===Winding Ways===; Sefton asked Nightcrawler for help in helping their adoptive mother, Margali Szardos, who had been blackmailed by D'Spayre into causing madness in Germany to empower himself. The horrifying villain was ultimately defeated. Simultaneously, Britannic was summoned to America, bringing Meggan and Shadowcat with him for an undisclosed mission. They crossed paths with a technarchy version of Doug Ramsey, a late friend of Shadowcat, who had been revived by the Phalanx as Douglock. In fact, Britannic was attracted by Ramsey's ally, the robot Zero, who was being hunted by drones created by his former master Stryfe and had data about the Legacy Virus. Zero ultimately sacrificed himself to give Excalibur an opportunity to escape Stryfe's terminal base. Before being destroyed in a self-destructing explosion, he shared his files with Douglock, who accompanied Excalibur. Meanwhile, Moira revealed to have been infected with the Legacy Virus.; When the Phalanx started their conquest plans and captured the X-Men, Xavier summoned X-Factor, X-Force and Excalibur to the Acolytes' former monastery in France for help. Douglock was restrained in a dungeon due to his former association with the Phalanx, however his former New Mutants teammates Wolfsbane from X-Factor and Cannonball from X-Force found him. Douglock recruited them alongside the inventor Forge to infiltrate and sabotage the Phalanx's Babel Spire in the Alps, which would summon the Technarchy to Earth. The teams fought Shinar and, in the end, the Phalanx were destroyed.; Margali Szardos alerted Amanda Sefton that a sorcerer named Gravemoss would attempt to take Magik's Soulsword and seize control of Limbo. Shadowcat was corrupted by the Soulsword while Nightcrawler was possessed by Gravemoss. Shadowcat was subdued and fell onto a coma, while Gravemoss was able to incapacitate all of Excalibur. The Soulsword also caught the attention of Shrill, who approached Shadowcat. When "Nightcrawler" interrupted them, Shrill revealed his true identity. Shadowcat was able to overpower him and exorcise his spirit from Nightcrawler. The Soulsword was given to Sefton, who gifted it to Margali Szardos. Tragically, that had been Margali's plan all along.; Scicluna, an agent of Black Air, the organization that had replaced W.H.O., contacted Excalibur for help in calming down the political turmoil in Genosha concerning mutants and humans. The mutant agent Pete Wisdom accompanied the group in their mission. Their aircraft was bombed by hostile rebels in Genosha. In their investigation, they learned a dark secret surrounded the process which turned mutants into enslaved mutates in Genosha. However, before they could uncover the truth, the Sugar Man destroyed any incriminating evidence.; After taking a leave of abscence from X-Factor, Wolfsbane joined her adoptive mother Moira and Excalibur on the Muir Island. With the team enjoying a night out, Colossus arrived at the isle unannounced. He brutally attacked Wisdom for being jealous of the blooming relationship between the ex-Black Air agent and Shadowcat. Although Colossus was initially restrained due to his rampage, Nightcrawler offered him a position in the team to help him recover from his recent traumas.; Professor Stuart informed Excalibur that Black Air represented a danger, raising suspicions. Simultaneously, the Black King of the Hellfire Club Shinobi Shaw contacted the former Captain Britain about the London branch of the club being involved in dark schemes, including the new membership of the deadly Mountjoy. During their investigation, they learned both conspiracies were connected to each other with Black Air supporting the Hellfire Club's plans of political domination. Since Excalibur represented a nuisance, they were targeted. While the former Captain Britain investigated the Hellfire Club by joining them, Black Air's first target was Douglock, who got kidnapped. Excalibur retaliated and unleashed their rage upon Black Air by destroying one of their bases. Although they failed in locating Douglock, Excalibur learned that Wisdom's former co-worker Scratch was behind the kidnapping.; Meanwhile, the former Captain Britain was informed by the Hellfire Club's Scribe that a demonic creature was soon to be summoned to the streets of London under the Red Queen's command. In fact, the Red Queen was Margali Szardos, who used Douglock's systems to perform the spell that cast the demon and tap into its powers. With London under direct threat, Captain Britain decided to resume his role as the champion of the United Kingdom. He learned that Scribe was in fact Mountjoy and combatted him and the Black Queen. At the Black Air building, Excalibur tried to stop the source of the dangerous incident, with Nightcrawler sword-fighting the Red King and Wisdom getting revenge at Scratch. Captain Britain knocked Mountjoy our, Nightcrawler bested the Red King, Lockheed finished Scratch, and Shadowcat restored Douglock. In the end, Margali Szardos was a victim of her own reckless ritual, being captured by Belasco as her demon was banished. Excalibur was then celebrated by the British people as heroes for saving London from the corrupted Black Air and the Hellfire Club.; ===Some Dreams Never Die===; Back to the Muir Island, Excalibur tragically learned that Charles Xavier had descended into madness and villainy as the entity named Onslaught. Moira decided not to intervene in the war against Onslaught in order to protect Excalibur of being killed and leaving the world unprotected. She was proven right since the Avengers and the Fantastic Four perished in battle. Although antimutant sentiment rose in the United States due to this incident, Excalibur was still revered in the United Kingdom for heir heroic actions. During the crisis concerning Onslaught, Moira learned Xavier had protocols designed to combat his own X-Men. The terrorist Mutant Liberation Front invaded the Muir Island to have access to the files. However, Moira was able to entrap them, forcing a retreat.; Due to raising tensions concerning the Onslaught incident, Captain Britain chose to retire from superheroic duty. He took the opportunity to propose to Meggan. They were interrupted by Spiral and the Dragons of the Crimson Dawn. The Dragons kidnapped Captain Britain to use his powers to bring the Realm of the Crimson Dawn to dominate Earth. Meggan and Spiral contacted Excalibur for help, forging an uneasy alliance with the time dancer. In Hong Kong, Excalibur rescued Captain Britain, but the Dragons' ritual depowered him. He decided to leave the group and focus on his life as a civillian.; Stranded on Hong Kong, Excalibur asked Roderick Campbell to help them with transport. Campbell was revealed to be working with Sebastian Shaw, the former Black King of the Hellfire Club, which raised suspicions from Nightcrawler and Wisdom. Simultaneously, Shadowcat's former mentor and enemy Ogun took the opportunity to possess her and attack Excalibur. Wisdom threatened to kill Ogun even if that meant finishing Shadowcat's life, prompting the villain to vanish. In the end, Campbell arranged flights for them and Excalibur disassembled: Shadowcat and Wolfsbane returned to Moira and Douglock on the Muir Island, Nightcrawler and Wisdom went to Germany to look for Amanda Sefton and Meggan and Colossus travelled to Paris.; Separated, Excalibur ran into many incidents. Lockheed disappeared, being tormented by Bamfs. Shadowcat looked for him and they briefly joined S.H.I.E.L.D. for a mission. Colossus and Meggan clashed with the High Evolutionary and Arcade. Wisdom had to confront his murderous ex, Sari St. Hubbins, in a fight that caused Nightcrawler to go missing. Moira decided to put herself under permanent quarantine in her laboratory to focus solely on curing the Legacy Virus, and Wolfsbane chose to accompany her. Douglock eventually ended the quarantine against their will. Nightcrawler had been captured and tortured by mutant Sidri, who blamed him for their condition. Excalibur was able to track him to Venice, where he was rescued. The Sidri departed after Douglock helped them restore their connection to their collective. Shadowcat and Lockheed returned to the Muir Island.; Excalibur was reassembled and had to deal with the extradimensional infestation of Bamfs on Muir Island, who went from tormenting Lockheed to targeting the whole team. Their master was the dark oneiric entity named Nightmare. The group had to fight their own inner demons in the form of terrifying dreams. Wisdom was able to overcome his issues to weaken Nightmare, leading to the team getting freed. However, this led Wisdom to question his relationship with Shadowcat, who seemed to be better without him. No longer seeing himself with her or the team, he departed.; Mossad mutant agent Sabra recruited Excalibur to investigate problems concerning Professor Xavier's son, the omnipotent Legion. Meggan's empathic abilities were able to disperse Legion's erratic personalities who haunted Jerusalem. In gratitude, Sabra provided Excalibur with information that could led them to a missing Charles Xavier, who had been apprehended by Bastion's Operation: Zero Tolerance. In Peru, the team found the power copycat Mimic instead, in custody of Prime Sentinels. The dangerously insane Mimic was subdued by Excalibur, ironically saving the Sentinels. Mimic was taken to the Muir Island for treatment.; Simultaneously, Captain Britain returned to propose to Meggan. During the preparations, the Crazy Gang invaded the Braddock Manor to cause a mess. They were led by Feron, who felt abandoned by the team. However, they were able to discuss the issue and make amends with him. The wedding ceremony took place in Otherworld being celebrated by Roma and secretly watched by Merlyn. Following the wedding, Nightcrawler, Shadowcat and Colossus announced their intention of rejoining the X-Men to recover Professor Xavier.; ===New Excalibur===; After saving Otherworld from the malfunctioning intelligence Mastermind, Captain Britain ascended to throne as the Omniversal Guardian, having Meggan at his side as his queen. Additionally, Phoenix was able to return to the mainstream timeline and eventually adopted the mantle of Marvel Girl as an X-Man. Due to the distortion that enveloped Earth when the Scarlet Witch reshaped reality, Otherworld was severely hit. Captain Britain, Meggan, Psylocke and Marvel Girl found themselves in all-new existences, being part of the British Royal Family in a world where mutants were the dominant species. Together and teamed up with Juggernaut and Nocturne, they found an unstable dimensional rift threatened the fabric of reality. Meggan sacrificed her own life to seal the distortion prevent a catastrophe.; The Scarlet Witch's façade reality was put down, but as a result the vast majority of the mutants in the world were depowered. Moreover, Captain Britain had actually lost Meggan and his connection to Otherworld and realized that other people had no recollection of the crisis. In London, the X-Men Psylocke, Marvel Girl, Nightcrawler and Shadowcat put him in contact with Juggernaut and Nocturne, who had vague memories about what had transpired. The group was approached by Wisdom, now an agent of MI-13, about the apparent murder of the mutant performer Dazzler. Dazzler had been attacked by Shadow-X, a dark alternate version of the original X-Men. Their actual target was a contact of the Fraser's Bank, run by Courtney Ross. Ross' associate, the former secretary of the Hellfire Club Sage joined the fight against Shadow-X. They kidnapped Nocturne for their master, Charles Xavier. Wisdom knocked Shadow-X out and apprehended Xavier. He also decided to reform Excalibur after this incident, but Captain Britain refused to join them.; Wishing to put his team together, Wisdom easily cleared Juggernaut's name for having caused damage to public property and being put on trial. The team was tackled by Warwolves, while Captain Britain was attacked by Lionheart, the former Captain Britain of the Avengers, who blamed him for having cursed her to be his champion and live apart from her children. Lionheart worked alongside Albion, an equal to Captain Britain. With the two incidents intersecting with each other, Excalibur was complete with the addition of Captain Britain.; In one of their first operations, Excalibur investigated a terrorist bombing performed by a depowered and mournful Scarlet Knight, during which Juggernaut's former ally Black Tom tormented the team under Scicluna's orders. She wished to restore Black Air to its former influence over MI-13. When Excalibur defeated Black Tom, Scicluna escaped with Black Air and the captive Shadow-X. Juggernaut then personally confronted Black Tom about his villainous ways. The dark Xavier remained under custody and demanded to see Psylocke. He was revealed to be in fact a vessel for the Shadow King, who wished to punish Captain Britain as a revenge against Psylocke for having psychically locked him in the past. Captain Britain and Psylocke overcame a brainwashed Excalibur. She attacked the Shadow King, but vanished during the fight. In fact, she had been summoned to join the multiversal Exiles. The team then rescued a de-powered Chamber from Apocalypse's Clan Akkaba, which operated in the United Kingdom. Chamber refused to join them and Clan Akkaba vanished with no traces.; ===Battle for Eternity===; When the hero Black Knight was possessed by his ancestor, Captain Britain had Excalibur to approach his erratic ally. The Black Knight from the past claimed that Camelot was under the threat of dragons in the medieval era. Excalibur journeyed to the past to help Camelot, where the Black Knight regained control over his body. Their first action was to protect Merlyn from being assassinated. King Arthur welcomed Excalibur to help them oppose the dragons. Sage realized the dragons were Makluans and suggested Merlyn to combat them with the Formosan Herb. Camelot was safe for the moment and Excalibur returned to the present.; The team struggled with an unstable leadership, since Wisdom and Captain Britain constantly clashed with each other about it. Meanwhile, Juggernaut faced problems with his powers and travelled to the Temple of Cyttorak to reconnect with the source of them. Excalibur followed him, but the dysfunctional team had internal conflicts during the mission. In the end, Juggernaut secured the Crimson Gem of Cyttorak in case he wished to totally repower himself as the destructive avatar of Cyttorak. Excalibur welcomed him back despite his violent past. Meanwhile, the Black Knight chose to depart, not fully integrating himself into the team. Moreover, Nocturne suffered a stroke, with Excalibur helping her in a slow recovery.; Albion and Lionheart joined forces with Scicluna and Shadow-X to destroy Captain Britain and Excalibur. While Sage infiltrated Albion's army of Shadow-Captains as Britannia, Excalibur intercepted Shadow-X just after Lionheart had killed the Shadow King since he had planned to possess her. Lionheart escaped and left Shadow-X at Excalibur's mercy. Meanwhile, Sage was corrupted by Albion when he trapped Great Britain with an anti-technology field. Excalibur tended to the multiple crises regarding the shut-down of all technology in the country, forcing Shadow-X to assist them. Albion planned to conquer London with slaughter and met resistance in Excalibur. Shadow-X was exterminated by Albion's forces. Unexpectedly, Lionheart turned against Albion due to his brutal ways against her nation and Sage recovered her own reason, which weakened Albion. Excalibur bested him in combat and ended his dark influence, restoring technology.; After the war against Albion, Juggernaut succumbed to Cyttorak in order to fight the Hulk, who was attacking the X-Men, and permanently left the team. In order to celebrate their victory, Excalibur threw a party. During the commemorations, they were visited by Psylocke and the Exiles. Tragically, Captain Britain was ambushed by the assassin Rouge-Mort and fatally wounded. In the Exiles' Panoptichron, the two teams linked the attack to a crisis in Otherworld. Through Merlyn's machinations, Jim Jaspers coordinated Furies to conquer Otherworld. Psylocke suggested Excalibur to recruit Albion to oppose them while the Exiles attacked Jaspers. Albion provided the necessary strike to allow Captain Britain to join the fight. In the end, Captain Britain, Albion and the Exiles destroyed Jaspers. Roma was slain during the battle, Merlyn managed to escape and Albion was coronated as the new leader of the Captain Britain Corps. In the end, Excalibur was ultimately disbanded. Captain Britain and Wisdom continued to fight for the United Kingdom with MI-13.; ===Dawn of Excalibur===; During the premature death of the multiverse due to the incursions, Otherworld and the Captain Britain Corps were obliterated. Saturnyne provided Captain Britain with enough power to resist. The multiverse was ultimately rebuilt, and Saturnyne tapped into the power of a Mapmaker to recraft Otherworld under her rule. As the Omniversal Majestrix of the Starlight Citadel, she organized Otherworld in courts. In this setting, King Arthur was missing and Morgan Le Fay reigned over the court of Avalon. On Earth, Professor Charles Xavier founded a nation in the mutant-environment of Krakoa. All mutants were granted amnesty and citizenship in Krakoa, including the ancient warlord Apocalypse. He made reuniting Krakoa with its lost half Arakko a priority, in order to meet his family. As such, Apocalypse, renaming himself with the mutant name • --|A|-- •, tried to access Arakko through Otherworld. His attempted enraged Morgan. Wishing for a champion to break the portals to Otherworld, • --|A|-- • contacted Psylocke, who had recently rejected her name in favor of her successor. She contacted her brother Captain Britain and then marched to Avalon to assess the situation. With Captain Britain corrupted by Morgan as her knight, Betsy Braddock took the Amulet of Right to ascend as a mutant Captain Britain.; On Krakoa, • --|A|-- • influenced the succubus Rogue to interact with the gateway to Otherworld in order to retrieve Captain Britain. They were watched by Rogue's husband Gambit and the explosive Jubilee. Rogue was trapped in a coma inside a coffin made of Krakoan vines, but her interaction with the gate allowed Captain Britain to return to Krakoa. They transported Rogue to the site of the ruins of the old Braddock Lighthouse in hopes of reconnecting to Otherworld and rescue Brian Braddock, the corrupted Captain Britain. Rogue's coffin erected a new Lighthouse. There, they were attacked by Morgan's followers led by Marianna Stern and Reuben Brousseau of the Clan Akkaba, who reformed as the Coven Akkaba. • --|A|-- • defeated the interlopers and sent Captain Britain and her friends to Otherworld. In the process, Shogo, Jubilee's baby son, was transformed into a medieval dragon through the power of his imagination. While Captain Britain briefly confronted Morgan's forces, • --|A|-- • recruited the earthquake-creator Rictor to help him craft his gateways in exchange of helping him control his powers.; Simultaneously, Coven Akkaba influenced Pete Wisdom to look for Captain Britain in the Braddock Lighthouse under the British Crown's orders. Captain Britain discussed her new status as the United Kingdom's champion with the Queen, formalizing her team as a revival of Excalibur. As such, Excalibur became a diplomatic group of mutants who dealt with matters concerning the United Kingdom, Krakoa and Otherworld. Rictor and Gambit were sent by • --|A|-- • to retrieve special crystals made of ancient mutant bones from druids who lived underground to power the gateway to Otherworld. However, Rictor wasted the power of the crystals to save Gambit during their theft. Meanwhile, Shogo's dragon-fire unexpectedly weakened the fabric of Otherworld, causing hordes of monsters to invade the United Kingdom. While Excalibur dealt with the invasion, Rogue woke up and assassinated • --|A|-- • to use his ancient bones to power up the gateway.; Excalibur returned to Otherworld alongside a resurrected • --|A|-- • and Jamie Braddock. • --|A|-- • proposed to Morgan Le Fay a duel between his champion Betsy Braddock and her knight Brian Braddock. • --|A|-- •'s machinations led Brian Braddock to die in battle, leading to Jamie to be crowned as Monarch, the King of Avalon. Morgan was incarcerated and Brian was revived through Jamie's quantum powers. As a result, • --|A|-- • consolidated his power in Otherworld by having a court ruled by Krakoan mutants.; ===X of Swords===; To carry on his plans, • --|A|-- • assigned Excalibur to collect the skulls of Warwolves for his magical rituals. The Warwolves had been bought by the posh monster hunter Cullen Bloodstone, who was in coalition with Coven Akkaba. Excalibur had to agree to participate in a bizarre Warwolf hunt at Bloodstone's request. Excalibur refused to be part of his game and decided to gather the Warwolves by themselves, prompting Bloodstone to clash with them. Rogue knocked him out and the Warwolves were exterminated.; • --|A|-- • was able to build a path to the Starlight Citadel using the Warwolves' skulls. Excalibur attempted to interact with Saturnyne, but she sent her White Priestesses to combat them. Jubilee unleashed her explosives upon them, getting separated from the team. She was collected by the Green Priestesses, who did not answer directly to Saturnyne, and decided to stay with them to care for a wounded Shogo. Excalibur broke into the Citadel. Rictor built a gateway to link • --|A|-- • to the Citadel, while Captain Britain discussed the Corps' situation with Saturnyne. On Krakoa, • --|A|-- • sacrificed some of the Externals with Rictor's help to activate the gate to Otherworld in the Eternal Caldera. Candra, one of the Externals, resisted being killed, since her soul was linked to a heart gem Gambit had stolen from Saturnyne. Ignoring Candra's pleads, Gambit ultimately decided to execute her and the External gate to Otherworld was opened.

+History:
+===Origins===; At some point in time, a race of insectoid beings later known as the Timebreakers discovered the Panoptichron, a massive crystalline fortress existing outside of space and time from which alternate realities could be viewed or visited. During their exploration they caused an accident that destabilized the Omniverse, threatening to destroy all existence. Pacifists by nature, the Timebreakers chose to seek out champions to correct changes to various realities. Finding that mutants in general (and those associated with the X-Men in particular) were highly versatile, the Timebreakers chose various X-Men from different realities.; They pulled Blink from Earth-295, Mimic from Earth-12, Nocturne of Earth-2182, T-Bird from Earth-1100, Morph of Earth-1081, and Magnus of Earth-27. Pulling the group to the Desert Beyond Space and Time, the Timebreakers approached them in the guise of the Timebroker, a humanoid figure claiming to be a construct of their collective unconscious, and informed them they had become "unhinged from time", drawn away moments before a cataclysmic accident or death that would adversely affect their lives. The "Timebroker" further claimed that repairing damage to other worlds would eventually correct that done to their own lives, allowing them to return home. Upon agreeing, the group was presented with the Tallus, a device that allowed them to jump between realities and that would help them discover their mission on each world.; On their first mission, the group (who came to call themselves the Exiles), were transported to Earth-1815, a world where Operation Zero Tolerance saw every mutant and super-human being either incarcerated or eliminated. Their mission: find their greatest leader. Most of the Exiles believed this to be this world's Charles Xavier. However, upon freeing Xavier from a Zero Tolerance facility, he attacked them, freed a group of X-Men and went on a rampage, mind wiping the entire population of Phoenix, Arizona and killing scores of others. The Exiles, recognizing they'd made a grave error, realized this world's Magneto was the great leader they sought. While part of the team went to rescue Magneto and the other imprisoned super-humans, the rest clashed with Xavier and his murderous X-Men; Mimic slew Xavier whilst Magnus sacrificed his life to save everyone from a nuclear bomb set to go off in the Zero Tolerance prison. With their mission complete, the Exiles were given a new member Sunfire of Earth-2109 and transported off to their next mission.; The aftermath of their first mission had lasting effects, as The Timebreakers stored Magnus's body (and later, the bodies of all those fallen in battle) within the Panoptichron. The Exiles' actions on Earth-1815 also caused that reality's version of the Grandmaster to lose a bet against the Collector, prompting him to learn what he could about them and concoct a suitable revenge.; ===Early Missions===; The next world the Exiles found themselves on was Earth-8649 a world that where the X-Men were currently undergoing the Trail of the Phoenix. Their mission required them to kill that world's version of Jean Grey. However despite some reluctance, the Exiles disguised themselves as members of the Imperial Guard and succeeded in their mission with the help of Wolverine. Brought to Earth-901237 the Exiles assisted Alpha Flight in capturing the Hulk, unaware they were being observed by Weapon X, another group the Timebreakers had gathered to take on missions too brutal for the more moralistic Exiles. During this mission, Blink and Mimic began a romance, while T-Bird came to terms with himself after meeting his counterpart from that reality. After a brief break, the team embarked on a number of missions to: Earth-2318, where the Savage Land covers two continents; Earth-20318, where Tony Stark was President of the United States; Earth-23018, a world of Hulks; Earth-32081, where they battled the Spider-Demon; Earth-971023, reality containing some of the X-Babies; and Earth-39102 home of the Antelope Men. During these missions, Nocturne and T-Bird also began to form an intimate relationship. The Exiles also spent another brief vacation on Earth-9212, where Morph realized Sunfire had no interest in a romance with him because she was lesbian; the two did become close friends, however.; Their next mission brought the group to Earth-5692, where the alien Skrulls had conquered the Earth during the early 20th Century. Many of the group were captured and forced to battle against various super-humans in gladiatorial combat. Nocturne also realized she was pregnant with T-Bird's child. Galactus then arrived, prompting the Skrulls to flee the planet. The Exiles gathered the super-humans of this world and worked together to defeat Galactus, but T-Bird was critically injured and left behind at the end of the mission, replaced by Sasquatch of Earth-3470 (unbeknownst to the team, the Timebreakers retrieved the injured T-Bird and placed him in the Panoptichron's stasis wall).; The Exiles finally met their Weapon X counterparts on Earth-2600, leading to Blink's happy reunion with their leader, her mentor Sabertooth from Earth-295. Though both teams collaborated to rescue David Richards, destined to be a mutant savior, from the Sentinels that ruled his planet, things went awry when Weapon X was ordered to murder the boy, as he would enslave the world and the Exiles, unable to justify the murder of a young boy, clashed with Weapon X. In the end, Sabertooth chose to stay behind and raise David, hoping his care would sway him from his dictatorial destiny, thus completing the mission and sending both teams onward to their next missions. On Earth-1016 the Exiles grudgingly assisted Dr. Doom in liberating his country from the Sub-Mariner, strongly affecting an increasingly embittered Mimic, who began to feel that the missions they undertook were stripping away his morals. Soon after, during another break from missions, Nocturne unable to raise her child without its father, aborted it. The Exiles next found themselves on Earth-21117, where Curt Connors was responsible for turning everyone on the western coast into a lizard-human hybrid, forcing the US to create a preserve for them. The Exiles prevented a cured Connors from wiping out his mistake, but Connors committed suicide as a result.; The Exiles then found themselves temporarily derailed from their mission, pulled into the Mojoverse by its ruler Mojo who sought to force Morph back into his star actor. With the aid of Longshot the team freed Morph and Nocturne and they were rescued by the Timebroker. The Exiles' next mission was on Earth-8545, a world where a combination of the Legacy and Transmode Viruses had created a deadly new breed of technorganic creatures called Vi-Locks who conquered most of the world. The group helped that world's Avengers battle the Vi-Locks and seek out a cure, eventually summoning the Asgardians of that reality and using their blood to create it. At mission's end the Timebroker told the group it was time for Blink to return home; she was replaced with Magik of Earth-4210, and Mimic became team leader. In truth, Blink was not returned to Earth-295, but sent to Earth-2600 to assist Sabertooth in raising young David Richards.; ===Mimic as Leader===; Mimic's tenure as leader was rough on the team; not only were they still reeling after the loss of Blink, but Magik was determined to complete missions by any means, even insubordination. On their first mission, they were transported to Earth-957145 where Mimic was forced to kill the Juggernaut to save the people of Russia. On Earth-989192 the Exiles were supposed to stop the Avengers from defeating Moses Magnum's attack on Japan, but upon discovering this would lead to the extermination of the entire island they became determined to stop Magnum instead. However, despite the team's efforts, Magik disobeyed orders and confronted and murdered the Avengers, completing their mission and sending them on.; On their next mission the Exiles were sent to Earth-616 to defend Carter Ghazikhanian from the Havok of Earth-1298, who had possessed the body of his Earth-616 counterpart. This led to misunderstandings and a clash with this reality's X-Men who were already tangling with Maximus Lobo and his wolf-mutants. After explaining what was happening, the Exiles and X-Men teamed up to stop the evil Havok. Nocturne ended the battle by using her possession powers to shunt Havok-1298 into a dimensional void, where the Timebroker destroyed him.; The Exiles then went on a string of missions complicated by Magik's reckless nature, among them a reality where she almost killed Moira MacTaggert, another where she crippled the Black Panther's son, and yet another where she caused the Morlock children to be lost, possibly forever. On Earth-3931 the Exiles were charged with trying to stop a team of Vampire Avengers from obtaining mystical totems to gain immortality. During their initial clash one of the vampires bit Sunfire, who began to turn. The group enlisted the aid of Ken Crichton, the former Union Jack who retired after being disfigured by Captain America; though he assisted in destroying the Vampire Avengers and restored Sunfire to normal, Crichton merely wanted to usurp Captain America's power for his own. Transforming into the Vampire King, he used his magic to disrupt the Exiles' teleport out of his reality; this interference fractured the team and shunted them to various realities throughout the Multiverse.; As the nature of time varied between realities, each group spent a different length of time on each world. Sasquatch and Morph found themselves on Earth-9927 being hunted by a version of Wolverine shortly after he was experimented on by the Weapon X program. Sasquatch was forced to kill Weapon X and come to terms with her killing the Logan of her own reality, where they were married. Sunfire and Nocturne found themselves back on Earth-8545 where they assisted the Avengers in curing those still infected with the Vi-Lock virus. The pair spent two weeks in this reality, where Sunfire shared an ill advised romance with Spider-Woman before they were pulled back. Magik only spent a short period in an ocean, while Mimic found himself on Earth-2942, a world completely taken over by the Brood. Mimic claimed that he was only on the Brood world for six months, but was actually there for three years; he also concealed that he had been implanted with a Brood egg, which his Healing Factor was in the process of destroying.; The group were transported to their next mission on Earth-312, where they were to witness the birth of the Fantastic Four, with seemingly easy instructions: that nobody die. Although the newly created Fantastic Four were prevented from a fatal crash, Ben Grimm mutated into an even more monstrous form and began rampaging through New York. The Exiles and Fantastic Four worked together to stop the rampaging Thing, while Morph and Mr. Fantastic gathered a coalition of great scientific minds to build a device to restore Ben to normal. While they succeeded into restoring Ben to a more stable state of being, Mimic was seriously injured in the battle, causing the Brood embryo -- a queen -- to assert control of him and go on a rampage. While the heroes battled the Brood-Mimic, Reed Richards and the other scientists created a formula to push Mimic's healing factor into overdrive, killing the Brood queen inside him. It was a success, but not before Sunfire was killed in battle trying to save bystanders. This created tension between Mimic and Morph who loved Sunfire, and thought Mimic to be irresponsible for not being truthful to the team. With Sunfire dead, the Exiles were surprised to find that Blink had been returned to them as a member of the team before they were teleported away.; ===Return of Blink===; After the Exiles took another vacation, they were transported to Earth-4400. Tensions began to rise between the group due to Morph blaming Mimic for Sunfire's death, and Blink's reluctance to talk about her experiences back on Earth-2600. Here they were informed by the Timebroker that their counterparts in Weapon X had gone rogue since the inclusion of Hyperion from Earth-4023, who had disobeyed the Timebroker's orders and sought to rule a suitable world as his own. The Exiles were informed that the two teams were going to be liquidated with the five surviving combatants continuing on with their mission. During the ensuing clash, Weapon X lost Spider, Hulk, Firestar and the Exiles lost Magik when she betrayed the group to Hyperion, only to have her neck broken for her troubles, and proving to Hyperion that the Timebrokers were not sending any more recruits. The remaining Exiles continued their battle against Weapon X with the help of their former leader Gambit. The Exiles won when Gambit willingly sacrificed himself, seemingly slaying Hyperion in the process. The Timebroker offered to send Morph back home, but Morph opted out, deciding to stay with the team instead. The Exile's battle on Earth-4400 would have a lasting effect on the group. Hyperion, like all other Exile and Weapon X casualties, was placed in the stasis wall where, unknown to the Timebreakers, his body was healing and restoring him to life. He eventually broke free, took control of the Panoptichron, and forced the Timebreakers to assist in his revenge against the Exiles while back on Earth-4400, Gambit's Tallus was found by young boy who would later grow up to be that reality's Nighthawk.; The Exiles found themselves back on Earth-616 with a new teammate, Namora and a cryptic message from the Tallus: "Lose your possessions and earn your wings". While the Exiles tried to puzzle over this, Namora refused to be apart and fled to Atlantis while the Exiles sought out the aid of the X-Men. Namora clashed with her Earth-616 counterpart who easily defeated her and turned her over to the Fantastic Four. The Exiles were informed of this just after meeting young X-Men student Beak. The team, not wanting their presence known yet, took Beak with them to rescue Namora, leading to a clash with the Fantastic Four. However the battle is soon ended and explanations are made. Mr. Fantastic then figures out the purpose of their mission: they are to leave Nocturne behind and take Beak with them on their mission. The Exiles found this to be true when they discovered that Beak had become unhinged from time and moved onward without Nocturne, who was then approached by the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.; The group next found themselves on Earth-14845 where Morph single handedly stopped the Impossible Man who had gone on a rampage. The Exiles next were sent to Earth-5423 where Blink was briefly replaced by Mystique who learned of the Exiles' arrival from Destiny and then tricked the group in assisting the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants in breaking out their leader the Big M. The Exiles exposed the ruse and saved Blink, and were surprised to realize that the "Big M" was this reality's version of Mimic. Upon seeing the good he could have done with his life after reading his counterpart's mind, the Big M surrendered and reformed, completing the Exiles' mission. On Earth-4162, the Exiles aided the Fantastic Four in assisting the Earth -- which was becoming a sentient planet thanks to the machinations of Ego the Living Planet -- from becoming evil. The Exiles assisted in this process, stopping interference from both Dr. Doom and Ego. During the battle, Blink was briefly in contact with the Celestials, who warned Blink of the Timebreaker and that he is not what she and her teammates think him to be. In one of their stranger missions, the Exiles were ordered to purchase the last Danish from a pastry shop on Earth-26292. The group was teleported away immediately left to wonder what good they could have done, unaware that he purchase of the last Danish caused a chain reaction of events that prevented the Earth from being invaded by the Shi'ar.; The Exiles next found themselves trapped on Earth-37072, a world transformed into a medieval world thanks to the magic of Kulan Gath, who was later usurped by the demon Zarathos. Upon arrival on this world, the group was affected by the spell, being transformed into medieval peasants with no memory of their former lives or mission. They were then freed by Magik and Spider-Man of this reality who enlisted the Exiles in their quest to stop Zarathos. During their assault on Zarathos' castle, Sasquatch found herself trapped in her human form of Heather Hudson and was ill with fever. The group attacked Zarathos head on and "Spider-Man" revealed himself to be Kulan Gath, who had tricked the heroes in assisting him in retrieving the Talisman that they gave him, and Zarathos after him, their power. The Exiles won a victory when Heather gave in to to the spirit of Tanaraq the Inuit god that granted her powers, who easily defeated Kulan Gath and completed the mission for the Exiles.; The group was then brought to Earth-50358, where they were to stop a fuel cell factory from igniting the Earth's atmosphere. Not liking being manipulated, Tanaraq slew the workers and had the Exiles recruit brilliant super-villains to help him discover who the Timebroker is and how to get at him. The Exiles then sent Beak to collect the Shaman who then used his powers to summon the Tanaraq of his world, who claimed the one possessing Heather Hudson an impostor and slew him, while Heather in turn was separated from Tanaraq. Heather was happy to be free and although she no longer had her Sasquatch powers she agreed to continue on with the team.; ===Hyperion's Revenge===; By this time, Hyperion had full control of the Panoptichron and was using it to try to get his revenge against the Exiles. He brought them to Earth-2600 where they found Sabertooth being hunted by the young mutants (now grown to young adults) he had charge of. Saving Sabertooth, the group then learned Blink's dark secret: during her tenure on Earth-2600 alongside Sabertooth, she helped him raise young David Richards, however David became evil as he was destined to and forced Blink to help him murder the last remaining humans on Earth before Sabertooth was forced to kill him. The Timebroker then tells Blink the team's mission but she refuses. Suddenly the Tallus is switched over to Sabertooth who tells the team that their mission is to kill Mimic. When everyone refuses, the Timebroker (really Hyperion) then punishes them, sending them off to a new world.; To their surprise they found themselves on Blink and Sabertooth's native world of Earth-295 with Beak replaced with a new member: their old foe Holocaust, with the Timebroker ordering them that they must kill Magneto. However when Holocaust discovered the M'kraan Crystal was in the possession of the US military he sought to have the Exiles help him use it to launch an attack on the Timebroker. Recovering notes from one of Mr. Sinister's labs and a brief clash with this reality's X-Men, the Exiles utilized notes taken on the crystal and the Tallus to transport themselves to the Panoptichron. There, much to the Exiles' surprise, they found Hyperion waiting for them, and upon their arrival he quickly killed Holocaust. While the Exiles battled Hyperion, the Timebreakers freed Beak from the stasis wall, believing him to be the only one who could save the Multiverse. As the Exiles battled on, losing Namora and with both Morph and Mimic getting severely injured, Beak recruited two Hyperions from Earths 712 and 5764. With the aid of the two Hyperions, the Exiles managed to defeat his evil counterpart and banish him to the dead world he left on Earth-4023. The two good Hyperions were then convinced by Beak to allow the Exiles to continue their work and returned to their native realities.; With the battle with Hyperion over, the Exiles became determined to run their operation without the manipulations of the Timebreakers, with Heather working controls within the Crystal Palace. They then began seeing to their injured comrades, getting parahuman expert Dr. Strange from Earth-59661 to assist in healing Morph and Mimic. In addition the team traveled to Earth-3752 to obtain a copy of Curt Connor's regeneration formula. However upon their arrival they inadvertently botched the Science Squad's attempt to force Krakoa to battle Fin Fang Foom -- two monsters (or Kaiju) who were antigen and pathogen creatures that maintain the balance on this world. While the Exiles were assisting the Science Squad, back at the Panoptichron (which the Exiles began referring to as the "Crystal Palace") Dr. Strange freed Weapon X's Deadpool in the hopes that his regenerative powers could be used by Mimic to heal himself. Deadpool killed Strange and then began freeing his fellow Weapon X teammates. As the Exiles completed their mission on Earth-3752 and got a sample of Connor's regeneration formula, Mimic managed to copy Deadpool's healing factor and recover from his injuries and Deadpool's team-mate the Hulk executed him for his murder of Strange. However as a side effect to Mimicking Deadpool's powers Mimic found his skin horribly scarred. They later had their team-mate Sunfire removed from the stasis wall and buried on Earth-8545.; ===World Tour===; The Exiles next agreed to bring Beak back home to his native Earth-616, however their arrival occurred during a time that Earth-616 was briefly overlaid by the House of M reality warp, briefly merging it with Earth-58163. Trying to make sense of the situation, Beak was shocked to learn that his girlfriend Angel was a model in this new reality and that the mutant serial killer Kevin MacTaggert (aka Mutant X, and Proteus) was on the loose. With the aid of human fugitive Moira MacTaggert the team tracked down Proteus just as he took possession of Angel's body. During the final clash, Proteus fled Angel's body and took aq of Mimic, then scanning the Tallus learned about the Exiles and the various alternate realities that exist and used his powers to jump to another world in search for a body that would not burn out. The Exiles went after him, leaving Beak behind to administer Curt Connor's restorative formula on Angel just as the Earth-616 reality returned to normal.; Thus began the Exiles' trail to stop Proteus that took them to many different realities. After protecting themselves with metal implants to stave off Proteus, their first stop was to Earth-15731 a world that was still in the 1980s and the super human population were referred to as Paranormals. There Proteus hoped to possess the body of Kenneth Connell who wielded the powerful Starbrand. With the Exiles in pursuit, Proteus burned out Mimic's body and left it in favour of Justice, a local hero, leading to another clash with the Exiles and Connell. To get some edge, Heather Hudson made a deal with Mojo to recruit Longshot to their team in exchange for access to various realities. The now amnesiac Longshot assisted in defeating Proteus, but the villain managed to escape to another reality.; The Exiles followed him to Earth-928, diverging it into a new reality: Earth-6375, a future world in the year 2099. There, Proteus sought to possess the body of the Hulk causing a clash drawing the attention of Spider-Man and the world's megacorporations. Through the course of the battle, Proteus found that Mimic's feelings for Blink had affected him and he once more fled, but not before exposing Spider-Man's secret identity for the whole world, forcing him to join the Exiles on their mission in order to prevent his foes from striking at him. Proteus next arrived on Earth-712 and tricked the Squadron Supreme that the Exiles had turned corrupt before leaving the two teams to fight it out. Put on a mock trial, the Exiles were able to clear their names and also help the Squadron expose the Global Directorate using illegal means to take over the world. The Squadron agreed to let the Exiles continue their mission, but under the supervision of their team-mate Power Princess.; The Exiles continued their manhunt on Earth-9200 a world where a super-powerful version of the Hulk known as the Maestro ruled an irradiated world. The Exiles had the forethought to warn Maestro in advance and set a trap for Proteus. However, when Maestro was accidentally injured by one of the Exiles he went into a rage and fought both parties. During the fight the metal strip in Morph's head was knocked out and Proteus -- having almost burned out his previous body -- then possessed Morph instead. To his surprise, Proteus realized that due to Morph's unique physiology the body would never burn out and then departed back to his home reality to get revenge. However, Heather Hudson managed to use the Crystal Palace's computers to overshoot Proteus' return having him land on Earth-616's Counter-Earth, a world nearly devastated by various global crises. There the Exiles teamed up with the Young Allies in preventing Proteus from using the world's nuclear stockpile to blow up the Earth under the supervision of Order and Kaos. The Exiles managed to defeat Proteus after he razed the city of Atlantis to the ground; hiding a modified B-Mod machine from Earth-712 they used it to put Kevin MacTaggert's personality into a state of dormancy and made him think he is Morph. The Exiles were then presented with a dilemma now: They now had to keep the multiverse's most powerful mass murderer under their control.; Upon their return back to the Crystal Palace, the Exiles then carried out the task of returning the dead and incapacitated former members of both the Exiles and Weapon X to their native worlds, all save for T-Bird whom they kept as they believed he might be revived someday. Blink made the difficult choice of returning Mimic to his home reality, turning down an offer to join that worlds' X-Men in favor of continuing on with the Exiles.; ===Back in the Saddle===; Now under full control of their operations, the Exiles became aware of a team of Exiles on Earth-33629 whose membership consisted of alternate reality versions of the original team that had single handedly captured every super criminal on their Earth. Investigating, the Exiles fell into a trap set by the Grandmaster of Earth-1815 who had set it as part of a bet with his Earth-33629 counterpart. After a brief clash both teams of Exiles learned the truth and when Grandmaster-1815 tried to renege on his bet, he was defeated by the Elders of the Universe of Earth-33629. Annoyed that the Exiles were not following their orders any more, the Timebreakers then tricked them into going to the home world of Heather Hudson, Earth-3470 where they assisted Alpha Flight in stopping the Soviet Super-Soldiers from unleashing the demonic Chernobog. Once they completed their mission the Exiles were shocked to learn that they had been fired and then stranded on Earth-3470 by the Timebreakers.; The Timebreakers then became aware of Earth-127 where the Scarlet Warlock attempted to merge Wolverine's Adamantium skeleton to Magneto, however something went awry and Magneto was merged with the skeleton and Mesmero, creating a new entity calling itself Brother Mutant who threatened to take over the entire world. Seeking new Exiles, the Timebreakers decided to select a team entirely of alternate reality versions of Wolverine having heard that he was the "best there is at what he does". However with each successive team sent, they were taken under the control of Brother Mutant who was mobilizing his army of Wolverines for a Mutant Massacre Tour. The last such team gathered included the older and wiser Wolverine of Earth-811, young James Howlet of Earth-1880 (taking him on the night his powers first manifested), the Weapon X conditioned Wolverine of Earth-520, the zombified Wolverine of Earth-6195, and the Wolverine of Earth-181 (who still used his Patch identity), as well as the cyborgs Albert and Elsie-Dee of Earth-5211. When their mission also began to turn out to be a failure, Wolverine-811 convinced the Timebreakers to recall the original Exiles who assisted the all-Wolverine team in defeating Brother Mutant, but not before Wolverine-811 and Albert seemingly perished in the battle. In the aftermath, the alternate Wolverines were all returned to their native realities and the Timebrokers allowed the Exiles to resume their mission.; The Exiles next travelled to the world of Earth-552, where the Silver Surfer was on a mad quest to destroy Galactus (who on this world revitalized worlds) for failing to save his homeworld of Zenn-La. The Exiles teamed up with the Imperial Guard of this universe to defend Galactus. The Exiles succeeded in their mission when Sabertooth agreed to take on a portion of the Power Cosmic and slew the Silver Surfer. Sabertooth then returned the power to Galactus, refusing his offer to be a herald in order to return with the Exiles. The Exiles went on a series of successive missions saving 20 consecutive failing realities including Earth-27536 where they stopped the Sinister Six from slaying J. Jonah Jameson, Earth-27537 where they clashed with the Serpent Society, and the Hellfire Club of Earth-27538. In the latter mission the team experienced a close call when the White Queen almost unleashed Morph's Proteus persona, prompting the Exiles to regularly use the B-Mod machine to insure that his Morph personality remains strong.; Power Princess, convinced that the Exiles have proved their worth, then left the team. Just as soon as she had left, the computers then pulled Psylocke from Earth-616 to the Panoptichron under the command of Roma the omniversal guardian. After a brief clash with Sabertooth (mistaking him for his counterpart on her world) Psylocke agreed to join the team and they next went to Earth-1720 where the Earth was under the control of Madam Hydra and her army, whose only opposition was her former husband Reed Richards and Elektra. There the majority of the team had been captured and brainwashed by Madam Hydra's Hand ninja assassins and Psylocke had to face fears from her past battling this reality's version of Slaymaster, who had blinded her in her home reality. With the universe teetering on the brink of destruction the remaining Exiles managed to free their friends from Hydra control while Elektra freed Reed and Sue's daughter Valeria from stasis. When the universe appeared to be on the brink of collapse, Madam Hydra, her agents Slaymaster and Wolverine then fled using a reality jumping device created by Reed. Meanwhile, the Exiles freed the world's population -- which was held in stasis within a necklace worn by Valeria -- just in time to cause the universe to be reborn, however back at the Crystal Palace Heather believed her comrades were wiped from existence. Slaymaster, having failed to kill Psylocke then began travelling to world after world killing her alternate reality counterparts.; ===Starting Over===; The Exiles then spent the next six months helping rebuild Earth-1720 before returning to the Crystal Palace where they found the place deserted. A computer construct of Heather informed them that the Timebreakers abandoned the palace and Heather, thinking that her teammates had died, swept into a depression before leaving herself. The Exiles then went to tell Heather that they were alive and well and were surprised to find out that she was pregnant. After congratulating her, the Exiles resumed their missions, ending up on Earth-187319, leaving Psylocke behind at the Crystal Palace to run mission control due to the fact that she could not be detected by the Palace's computers. The Exiles found themselves on a world ruled by Victor von Doom and his Four Fantastics whose only opposition was the Mole Man. While Psylocke was visited by the "Older Generation" (a nice couple who claimed to be the original caretakers of the Panopticron) warning of a great battle coming, and the appearance of Catherine Pryde from an undisclosed reality, most of the Exiles sided with Von Doom, while Blink was captured by the the Mole Man who revealed that Doom used his science to create world peace but at the price of individual freedom. While Blink recruited Morph and Longshot to her side, both Sabertooth and Spider-Man were seduced by the Invisible Woman and Gwen Stacy allowing Doom to learn about their mission and plot an attempt to take over the Panoptichron. While the Exiles fought Doom's forces, Psylocke and Cat fought off his troops at the Panoptichron with the aid of a revived T-Bird. In the end, Gwen gave up the will to live and died, devastating Spider-Man, while Doom was exposed, prompting every human being on Earth to die and the Mole Man to trigger a weapon to destroy the Earth, just as the Exiles attempted flee.; The members of the Exiles were scattered to various other realities. Sabertooth ended up on Earth-797 where he rescued Mystiq and recruited him to the Exiles. Likewise did Morph rescue Rogue of Earth-1009. Blink ended up in a possible future where a member of the Older Generation showed Blink where her life might lead. As the Exiles were all pulled back to home one by one the group found Spider-Man on Earth-6375 where he happily found love with that reality's version of Mary Jane Watson and the Exiles thought it was better to leave him at that.; With T-Bird recovered, the Exiles brought him to Earth-616 to be reunited with Nocturne whom they found among her teammates in Excalibur following their victory over the Shadow-Captains; this also was a reunion with Dazzler and Longshot, although Longshot had no memories of their past relationship. The two teams found themselves pulled into a war between Roma and her father Merlyn who had used the resurrected Mad Jim Jaspers to attack the Captain Britain Corps in a bid to retake Otherworld and by extension the Omniverse. While Captain Britain was injured by the first strike, the Exiles took Excalibur to their headquarters to heal him as Jaspers made his attack, converting fallen Corps members into an army of Fury Cybiots. With Captain Britain needing medical assistance, the two teams enlisted the aid of Albion an alternate reality Captain Britain whom Excalibur previously defeated while the combined might of the Exiles and Excalibur battled Mad Jim Jaspers, who himself was turning into a Fury. As the battle raged, Morph held his own against Jaspers, unknowingly utilizing his Proteus based powers to match his foe blow for blow. Meanwhile Longshot and Dazzler failed to stop Merlyn from fatally stabbing his daughter Roma. With both Captain Britain and Albion battling Jasper's Fury, Roma transferred all her knowledge of the omniverse into Sage while the Exiles and Excalibur destroyed Jaspers. Psylocke battled against Merlyn, defeating him in battle, prompting him to flee while unknowingly being infected with the Fury virus. In the aftermath of the battle, the Old Generation were satisfied that the Exiles would take their place as guardians of the Omniverse. With his memories restored, Longshot left the team to return to Earth-616 with Dazzler, while Sage went along with the Exiles to make sense of the memories that Roma transferred into her mind and threatened to drive her mad.; Upon returning to the Crystal Palace, Blink and Sabertooth became aware of a crisis on Earth-91172 where the Hulk's Annihilation Wave threatened to wipe out all life. Realizing that their opportunity to prevent this catastrophe was delayed due to their "World Tour" and now busy with other matters, the pair decided to gather a new team of Exiles by sending that world's Kid Omega to gather heroes from other worlds. Kid Omega gathered Nighthawk of Earth-4400, Power Fist of Earth-8545, Spitfire of Earth-148611, and Wild Child of Earth-295 to oppose the Hulk and his forces. With this piece of business over with, Blink, Nocturne, and T-Bird decided to take a leave of absence from the group to spend time with Heather Hudson, leaving Sabertooth in charge of the group.; ===New Exiles===; These "New" Exiles then resumed where the original group left off. After getting acclimated to their current situation and various conflicting emotions, they were geared up with new uniforms by Sabertooth. Their first mission brought them to Earth-6706, a world that was devastated by meteors decades ago. There they protected the Sub-Mariner and his wife Sue Storm from an assassination attempt by the Black Panther and her Bloodforce. During this mission both Sabertooth and Psylocke fell in love with each other thanks to the manipulations of Bloodforce's Bloodwitch. During the ongoing battle the pair almost betrayed their teammates due to Bloodwitch's control but they managed to fight the effects. The Exiles assisted Namor and his family in fleeing to the Earth's moon colony before the Black Panther could seal off the Earth. In the aftermath of the battle they accepted Namor's son Gambit to join their ranks.; Back at base, Sage began to struggle with the many personalities that Roma implanted in her mind, chief among those a manifestation of her old Diana Fox persona, all vying for control over her body. Sage, Cat and Morph soon found themselves accidentally transported to Earth-8396, where Cat first began manifesting her ability to shapeshift into one of her alternate reality selves. There they found themselves in a world of modern technology, magic and dragons where they came to the aid of Prince Domenic and his lover the dragon Marysal. They learned that Dominic's parents had sent him to slay the dragon, disapproved of him loving it instead and hired the mercenary known as Venger to eliminate both the boy and dragon. The trio of Exiles help defend Dominic and his lover, defeating Venger and proving to Dominic's parents that his love was true and to their surprise Marysal then transformed into a beautiful woman. Bare moments later the Exiles were returned to the Crystal Palace by their comrades, while Venger was recruited into Madame Hydra's army.; The Exiles' next mission took them to Earth-80827 where the world had not advanced beyond the Age of Empires with Britain still at war against France over control of the America, but also by the dictates of Atlantis. While the Exiles were busy preventing the assassination of the Queen of England and her son, Psylocke felt her Earth-80827 counterpart being slain by Slaymaster and was drawn to China, the scene of her death, while back at the Panoptichron, Cat analyzed data to learn that the Omniverse was dying. While in China, Psylocke, now being influenced by the remains of her alternate self, agreed to be trained by Ogun to battle Slaymaster. While back in America, the Exiles enlisted the aid of the Atlanteans and the Emma Frost's Force-X to fight off the French. Back at the Crystal Palace the destabilisation of the Omniverse destroyed the Heather Hudson computer simulacrum. As the Exiles and Force-X continued to battle the French forces, Psylocke completed her training and bested Ogun in battle, having come to terms with the teeming alternate reality versions of herself that were effecting change in her. Realizing that Ogun was in league with the French, Psylocke then defeated him again while her teammates succeeded in routing the French invaders, ending the invasion and completing their mission.; As Cat desperately tried to find a means to prevent the Omniverse from collapsing, Sabertooth became aware of Slaymaster's killings of alternate reality versions of Psylocke. Sabertooth then traveled alone to Earth-4321 to try and put a stop to it, resulting in a clash between Slaymaster, Madame Hydra and their forces. Before they could kill Sabertooth, he was saved by Cat who disobeyed his orders and phased him out of danger. Tracked by Wolverine, Cat managed to phase off his claws, disarming him long enough for Sabertooth to slay him and allow the two Exiles to escape. As Cat continued to try and find a means of saving the Omniverse, Sage continued to struggle with her conflicting personalities, and Psylocke continued her training for her ultimate confrontation with Slaymaster. When Morph returned from shopping for a new costume for Rogue, she tried to catch him off guard by tossing metal knives at him, unknowingly reawakening his Proteus persona before Sabertooth assigned the Exiles to a new mission. While the others were away, Sage was left behind to monitor things at base, and was once more attacked by Diana Fox and the other conflicting personalities in her head.; A team of Exiles consisting of Morph, Mystiq, Psylocke, Gambit and Rogue were dispatched back to Earth-1720 where the Mad Maker created his Chosen, beings empowered with fantastic abilities for his own amusement, including The Gold Goblin, Blood Skull, Black Baron Dormammu, Doom, and Magneta. The Exiles assisted Rosetta Stone and Valeria Richards. There the Exiles battled the Maker and his minions, until Morph's Proteus persona made itself known and attempted to destroy them. However, finding that Morph's consciousness was still alive and that he desired to do good instead of evil after experiencing true friendship both Proteus and Morph merged together defeating the Maker and his minions and restoring the regular order, and seemingly losing his Proteus powers in the process. Later when Valeria asked to join the Exiles on their mission, they flat out refused her, however she would not be so easily dissuaded.; The Exiles next went to Earth-81114 a world where the Earth is defended by the human Daughters of the Dragon and the Saurian Sons of Iron. There they came to the aid of Nerimani a deposed Shi'ar empress who was being hunted by her sister Lilandra who dispatched her Shi'ar Death Commandos to slay her. The Exiles teamed with the Daughters of the Dragon and the Sons of Iron to battle the Death Commandos, Cat's body shifting to alternate selves the whole time. However the battle took a turn for the worse when Madam Hydra and her minions arrived to assist Lilandra and eliminate the Exiles once and for all. In the ensuing clash, Cat managed to slay Madam Hydra but at the cost of her own life, while Rogue and the Son of Iron known as Colyn battled the Commandos and suddenly realized they had fallen in love with one another. In the final battle, the Exiles defeated the last of Madam Hydra's legions and Lilandra's Commandos. Psylocke finally faced off against Slaymaster, defeating him in a battle, but refusing to slay him; her mercy allowed him to escape once more. With the Death Commandos defeated, the Exiles then forced Lilandra to surrender. Meanwhile, at the Crystal Palace, Sage continued to battle Diana Fox and the other forces in her mind; however, when the powers that be proved too strong, the two found themselves working together in order to survive. With the odds against them, they still managed to hold their own until Merlyn returned to try and claim the knowledge inside Sage's mind. In order to defeat Merlyn both Sage and Diana merged their essences together, their combined power apparently banishing Merlyn away forever.; After helping the people of Earth-81114 rebuild and mourning the loss of Cat, the Exiles prepared to return home only to learn that Rogue intended to stay behind with her new lover Colyn. Upon returning to the Crystal Palace they found that Sage had undergone a new change now that she had merged with Diana Fox and found new control; they also discovered that Valeria Richards of Earth-1720 managed to track them down and convinced Sabertooth to let her join the team. The group then went on a series of missions, going to: Earth-991, a world where the Vikings had settled in North America and clashed with the indigenous tribes; and Earth-1137, an Earth where sentient beings involved from insects and helped defend them from the Shi'ar. Soon after they were called back to Gambit's native world of Earth-6706 and learned of his father's death. With Namor dead, Gambit was forced to leave the team and assume his father's duties. Sabertooth and the others then returned to the Crystal Palace to face whatever new dangers threatened the Multiverse.; After an undisclosed period of time, the "New" Exiles found themselves trapped in the stasis wall due to their constant proximity to the Crystal Palace.; ===Morph's Exiles===; Eventually, Blink, Heather and Nocturne returned to the Crystal Palace to find their friends trapped, and found themselves only able to free Morph. Realizing that a prolonged time in the Panoptichron meant becoming merged and trapped within it, the veteran Exiles decided to begin recruiting various groups to send out and constantly cycle out before this could happen. To this end they rescued a number of mutants from various realities just moments before their deaths, recruiting Polaris from Earth-8149, Beast from Earth-763, the Panther from Earth-1119, Forge of Earth-2814, and the Witch of Earth-8823. With Blink posing as a new recruit and Morph working as the "Timebroker" this new team was quickly convinced they had no other choice but to help save the multiverse and dispatched them to Earth-90631 where they were charged with preventing Magneto from bringing about the total annihilation of the Earth in retaliation for attacks on his nation of Genosha. This mission was made somewhat easier by the fact that Polaris and the Witch (both being daughters of Magneto) both counterparts in this reality helped them sneak into Magneto's fortress, but ultimately a fight broke out between the Exiles and Magneto's army of mutants. The Exiles were captured but managed to break free and confront Magneto, removing his helmet and revealing to the telepaths among his loyal followers that he orchestrated the Sentinel attacks that led to his rise to power and eliminated Charles Xavier, his chief rival. Despite this seeming success, the Exiles were informed that they failed their mission and were shunted off to the next reality they needed to fix.; The group found themselves on Earth-10102 where an all powerful version of Cerebro seemingly slew all the world's humans and took over the world leaving nothing but robots. The Exiles were soon assisted by Cerebro's confidants: the Vision, Ultron, and Machine Man, who had secretly converted the Earth's population of humans into energy which was stored in Cerebro's robot body. The Exiles then succeeded in shutting down Cerebro before it could catch onto their plan and help the robots restore humanity. The Exiles were then sent back to Earth-90631 as it was discovered that it was the feud between that reality's Polaris and Scarlet Witch that would doom that world. They resolved that world by having the Witch pose as her Earth-90631 counterpart and expose Cyclops' psychic affair with Emma Frost prompting Emma to kill Scarlet Witch-90631. Having caught onto the fact that Blink knew more than they let on, the other Exiles had conspired together and had Forge construct a device that allowed them to use the Tallus to transport themselves back to the Crystal Palace. There they uncovered and were told Blink, Nocturne, Heather and Morph's plan. Their arrival also freed a female version of Kang who became trapped while trying to change her apocalyptic future, who further explained the nature of the Panoptichron: that it too undergoes changes as repair is done to the multiverse -- thus changing the nature of the guiding force gathering Exiles -- from the original insectoid "Timebreakers" to the "Old Generation" to herself. She then outfitted each of the Exiles with their own Tallus to prevent them from being trapped in the Panoptichron like the others and sent them off to continue their mission to save the Multiverse.; <!--; ===Legacy===; When they discovered Blink's new operation, the Exiles encountered other groups being formed: one group consisting of alternate versions of Captain America, Wolverine, the Hulk and Spider-Man, another consisting of MODOK, Venom, the Lizard, Deadpool, and the Black Queen, and yet another featuring at least the Thing and the Sub-Mariner. Each group was guided by a different "Timebroker" (the Impossible Man, Mojo, and Howard the Duck, respectively). Presumably the Exiles groups formed on Earth-33629 and Earth-91172 are still active in those realities. Another group of Exiles, a future incarnation of the original team led by a one-armed Blink, apparently exists but there is not much known about this team. Lastly, the fate of most of Sabertooth's remaining team of "New" Exiles is unknown, however Sabertooth, Psylocke, and Sage have all apparently freed themselves under unrevealed circumstances and have been active in their native realities.-->; ===The Time-Eater===; During a mission investigating a rift in timespace, Nocture, Sabretooth and Morph got lost and separated. Not long afterwards, a creature called the Time-Eater merged, and it devoured entire timelines faster than new ones could be created. As soon as he learned of the Time-Eater's existence the Unseen from Prime Marvel Universe orchestrated the reformation of the Exiles. After being delivered the Tallus by a much younger version of himself, the Unseen used it to lure Blink to the Blue Area of the Moon, so she could use her experience of multiversal travelling to assemble a new incarnation of the Exiles and investigate the Time-Eater. Acting on its own volition, the Tallus teleported Blink to different realities so she could encounter specific inhabitants and make off with them at the last second before the Time-Eater consumed their timeline. This way Blink encountered Khan, an older Ms. Marvel of a post-apocalyptic world, Iron Lad from a timeline where he never traveled back in time to join the Young Avengers, Valkyrie from a reality where she was the sole defender of Asgard, and Wolvie, the Wolverine from Mojoworld's Adorable X-Babies. The Tallus then transported Blink and the team back to the Prime Marvel Universe to report to the Unseen; however, the Tribunal of Watchers appeared to punish him for breaking the vow of non-interference, and in the subsequent altercation the Tallus was shattered, sending the Exiles flying into the timestream.; With the Tallus' navigation systems damaged, the Exiles began jumping between universes. In one of these universes, Blink caught a glimpse of Morph. During one of these jumps, the Tallus became displaced. On their way to find it, the Exiles joined forces with an anti-slavery pirate crew led by a version of the Thing also known as Blackbeard. When the Exiles recovered the Tallus, it took them to the lunar headquarters of the Time-Eater. The evil creature turned out to be a version of Kang the Conqueror, who absorbed the power of Galactus from his universe. The end result gave him the ability to devour realities, which he intended to use to become the Multiverse itself. While confronting the Time-Eater, the Exiles were joined by a younger version of Nick Fury who had been pulled into Kang's palace while fighting the villain back in his home universe. Iron Lad deduced that bringing the Tallus back to when Blink reunited with it could reverse Kang's consumption of the Multiverse. Nick Fury took it to himself to deliver the Tallus to the Unseen, and Blink and Khan accompanied him through most of the journey of jumping through realities to travel back in time. In the process, the Time-Eater sent an army of Kangs to stop the Exiles, and Khan sacrificed herself to keep them at bay. After Fury successfully delivered the Tallus to the Unseen at the cost of his own life, Blink rallied an army of alternate versions of herself and many of the heroes the Exiles had encountered in this adventure, and returned to the Time-Eater's palace. The combined might of the heroes overpowered the Time-Eater and destroyed it. The damage caused to the Multiverse was reversed for the most part; however, when the Unseen reunited with the Exiles, he warned them their services would be needed to heal the Multiverse.; Determined to help Blink reunite with her old teammates, the Exiles travelled to a Western world where they encountered and rescued Nocturne and Morph from the mental control of the deranged Pastor Xavier. Unfortunately, after being fatally injured by Blink, Pastor Xavier used his final breath to kill Morph.

+Externals (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: Externals (Earth-616)
+Full name: Externals
+Other aliases: High Lords; X-Ternals
+First appearance: X-Force Vol 1 10
+Created by: Fabian Nicieza; Rob Liefeld; Mark Pacella
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: A subspecies of 10 powerful immortal mutants (once deemed a sect)
+Reality: Earth-616
+Notes: Whether or not Cannonball is an External remains a point of contention. Sam Guthrie's future versions, including a conversation with Graymalkin where we learn that Cannonball lived well into the 24th century, were shown to survive into the future. Besides this, the other Externals also sensed that Cannonball was one of them.; When answering Doop, Cable stated that Cannonball wasn't an External and that it was only a rumor. The ambiguity of Cannonball's status as an External was used as a source of humor years later. After he rapidly recovered from a Purifier attack, one of the X-Men's students, David, asked Beast about it, and McCoy said Sam was immortal. David admitted after witnessing Cannonball's resurrection that he wasn't sure if McCoy was joking or not.; White Sword, a mutant of Okkara, has been described as "External in X-Men Vol 5 12, and as "external" in X-Men Vol 5 14. The exact use of the term in this context, and whether the White Sword is somehow connected to the Externals, though it remains unclear, further events have shown it unlikely. Please consult White Sword's page notes for more information.
+Trivia: At one point, it was revealed that each External was claimed to represent an intangible concept: Burke was fortitude, Absalom despair, Nicodemus wisdom, Saul patience, Gideon opportunity, Crule ferocity, Candra guile, Selene corruption, and Cannonball hope. Although Apocalypse's concept has yet to be revealed, speculation by fans is it's either destruction or evolution.; Cable believed the group had gone by both "Externals" and "High Lords", preferring the former over the latter.. Other than Cable calling Cannonball and his future Apocalypse "High Lord", only the six that had banded together called themselves the "High Lords".; Though the six did come to work together, and act as a type of authority among the other Externals, and they possibly used the title High Lords to represent that. The High Lords are not a separate group but a moniker they began using most likely when the six started to band together.; Other than calling Cannonball "High Lord", most likely in hopes he would join them, and Apocalypse has called them Externals and High Lords. The six so far haven referred to Selene, Candra, or Apocalypse as such nor as Selene and Candra referred to themselves by the High Lord moniker.
+History:
+===Origins and Early Years===; Externals are a rare loose-knit group of possibly ten of a subspecies of powerful immortal mutants, with the tenth originally believed to be Cannonball, but him being one of them was brought into question by one of their own, leaving the tenth External's status unknown. Unlike other immortal mutants and non mutants alike, Externals share not only immortality but a connection to each other and can only truly be killed by one another. By doing so it's assumed that they not only gain the powers of all the others, but will become a god. Each External claimed to embody an intangible concept and philosophy of the Tapestry of the Infinite representing Wisdom, Patience, Corruption, Ferocity, Guile, Fortitude, Opportunity, Despair, a ninth still unknown and their long-lost Hope.; Because the Externals' origins are scattered throughout history, as far back as Saul being hundreds of thousands of years old, Selene being born 17,000 years ago, Apocalypse who was born 5,000 years ago, along with Crule possibly being older than him and Nicodemus's possibly being far older than them, it is unknown prior to their first known gathering when they first banded together.; ===2700 to 2300 B.C.E.===; The Externals toasted the Abacus.; ===Apocalypse Rules Egypt===; At some point after the fall of Okkara, and the loss of his family, Apocalypse returned to Egypt. He defeated the Pharaoh and his army, Egypt entered a new age, one in which his children walked among them.; ===High Lords===; It is unknown when same of the earliest Externals banded together, likely Saul, Nicodemus, and possibly but to a lesser extent Crule formed the self-fashioned “High Lords”. Though other Externals would also come to use the name. But together they manipulated events behind the scenes on a global scale, with the goal of political and monetary control over the destiny of Earth.; The earliest known activities of the High Lords was during the mid-to-late 12th century C.E., when they came to fellow External Candra and tried to get her to join them. But Candra would decline their offer, preferring not to share her power and play the "power broker" alone. Fearing the wrath of the others, she formed a plan to extract the life energy of her own immortal heart into a stone. She summoned Selene, Saul, Crule, Nicodemus, and En Sabah Nur, her fellow Externals to aid her. While the ritual took place, it was En Sabah Nur who was chosen to lead the ritual and sunk a blade of unknown energy into her heart as the others watched. When the blade disappeared, and when En Sabah Nur place the now glowing stone on her chest, a serge of energy sparked around it and the ritual was done.; Despite this, they would come to invite Candra as well as Selene to join them a number of times throughout the centuries.; ===Columbus===; In 1492, Gideon was on the first expedition led by Christopher Columbus aboard the Pinta, but succumbed to scurvy. However, Gideon would raise from his death as his powers emerged and as the newest External. Columbus's voyage was revealed to have been part of the Externals machinations plan.; ===American Revolutionary War===; Gideon stoked the flames of war causing the American Revolutionary War and independence in 1776 as part of the Externals machinations plan.; ===19th Century===; The Externals bet on Thomas Edison.; Nearing the end of the 19th Century their numbers now consisted of Saul, Nicodemus, Crule, Burke, Gideon, and Absalom, and had become a form of authority overseeing the other Externals. They kept the peace and opposed anyone who interfered with their plans, but especially those Externals who would dare kill another External, taking their power and potentially godhood.; ===Tomorrow Starts Today===; In 1897 when they learned that Candra planned to stop En Sabah Nur's rise to power and take his ability to fold space for herself. Unwilling to physically act against her, they instead sent Dr. Nathan Milbury, who worked for En Sabah Nur, to deal with Candra.; After Candra made it to En Sabah Nur’s sanctum beneath the pyramids outside of Banī-Mazā in Egypt, with the help of her Thieves Guild she began to translate the text. Dr. Nathan Milbury, with a time traveling Gambit and Courier, arrived to stop her via Milbury’s transport ship. Choosing to bring down En Sabah Nur's sanctum instead of fighting and stealing his powers, delaying his gratification to a later day, Milbury quickly overpowered Candra with his new-found metamorphic abilities. Defeated, she begged for him to stop, and as he did he revealed the five High Lords who appeared as the reason behind her loss. Candra tried to explain herself but her actions against a fellow External, even one as radical as En Sabah Nur, they would not allow. For their greater glory awaited the Millennial Dawn, and Candra put that at risk so they punished her.; ===20th century===; In 1963, Gideon was involved in the Assassination of John F. Kennedy as part of the Externals machinations plan.; ===Modern days===; In more recent years, the High Lords were searching for the tenth and final Externals. Gideon long believed that External was the hero Sunspot, and had positioned himself in Sunspot's life even before his heroic career. Later, when the time-travelling mutant Cable had taken leadership of the New Mutants, and when the team was at a point of collapse. Gideon orchestrated the death of Sunspot's father in order to allow Sunspot to leave the team and join him. Unaware of Gideon's true purpose and actions, Sunspot agreed.; ===Mystery Of The Externals===; Later, when the New Mutants, now renamed X-Force, were battling the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and Morlocks. Cannonball was killed by the villain Sauron, but would revive shortly after and Cable revealed that he believed Samuel might by an External. The Externals sensed the newest and last External to rise, and the High Lords came together. Gideon, who often seen the other High Lords once in a blue moon, was met with anger by Absalom and Burke for wasting his time with the wrong person. But Gideon, already familiar with who the newest External was, had a plan to send Crule to kill Cable in order to retrieve Cannonball, and maintain anonymity.; After getting into a fight with Crule, due to a half century of hate between the two, Gideon successfully recruiting Crule help. Once they returned to Gideon's penthouse in Denver, he took out his anger on Sunspot and savagely beat him as Crule watched. When Crule arrived at X-Force's base in Adirondack Mountains, he found it had been destroyed during the teams battle with Weapon Prime and now they were surrounded by S.H.I.E.L.D.. He would overhear from a SHIELD agent that they believe Cable could be dead. Crule, now ignoring Gideon's plan and not caring for his fellow External's needs, decided the High Lords would be best served with Samuel's death. He boarded the S.H.I.E.L.D. assault carrier that X-Force hijacked, after beating the agents that had them surrounded, and confronted the team only to be defeated.; When Gideon discovered that Crule didn't kill Cable, but instead veered off course and went after the newest External, failing, he reached out to Cannonball. Knowing Cannonball would pursue both himself and Sunspot, Gideon made it clear that he couldn't have both. If Cannonball went after Gideon, then Sunspot would die. Gideon offered Cannonball a deal: if he promised to never again interfere in External affairs, then Gideon would tell them where to find Sunspot. Cannonball agreed, and X-Force saved Sunspot and destroyed Gideon's Ophrah Research Facility.; ===A New Threat===; When Stryfe tricked Sinister into unleashing his Legacy Virus the Externals found that not even they were safe when Nicodemus succumbed to the virus. Feeling Cannonball held the answers, Gideon and Saul came up with a plan to trick him into breaking his promise by coming to them. Saul kidnapped X-Force members Warpath, Boom-Boom, and Siryn and brought them to his home on the North Oregon coastline. Via a hologram message, they let Cannonball know the situation, and if he wanted to save them, he better give himself to them. But Cannonball, knowing what the Externals were up to, sent the rest of X-Force to save their teammates without him. The team went after Crule first, finding him still recovering from their last battle in St. Anthony's Hospital. Once on board the IPAC, they made a deal with Crule that if he tells them what they need on the Externals, they'll do what he can't and take them down player by player. Crule wanting to humble his fellow High Lords was more than happy to give them up. They caught Saul and Gideon off guard by crashing through the side of Saul's house, sending them flying. They managed to kept them at bay, they saved their friends without fighting. While leaving, they dumped Crule in the Pacific Ocean out of fear that once he recovered, he will attack them again.; ====Revelations====; When Hydra learned about Gideon, they offered him a place in Hydra, or he would die. However, Crule, who had recuperated from his encounter with X-Force and being stranded in the Pacific, found the proposal of a High Lord to be a subordinate position within a inferior organization, bolstered by insincere threats, an insult and attacked. As they battled, S.H.I.E.L.D., who had spies infiltrating Gideon's business interests and learned of Hydra's plans for him, joined the fight to stop Hydra. Gideon, not wanting to be in debt to S.H.I.E.L.D. and aware of their spying, deemed them as enemies as well. He called on Crule to attack both intruders. As the three sides fought Fury asked Gideon to call off Crule, stating that S.H.I.E.L.D. was only there for Hydra. With some misgivings, Gideon agreed and the two sides defeated Hydra.; Fury, now knowing Gideon was not a friend of Hydra, suggested they call it a day. Crule refused because he wanted more, causing Gideon to stop him while telling Crule that he wouldn't allow him to give any more reason for further engagement.; ===The Tithing===; During one of Candra's annul Tithing, where her Assassins and Thieves Guild of New Orleans, would compete for her Elixir of Life. She enjoyed a romantic interlude with Gideon at her Paris.; ===Legacy Virus===; Months later, Nicodemus and Burke had succumbed to the Legacy Virus. Saul, Gideon, and Absalom, guided by Burke's vision prior to his demise that Cannonball was the architect of their salvation, peacefully sought him out.; After a long talk where they revealed some important moments in their long lives. A fight briefly broke out when Absalom revealed to Cannonball and Boomer that he was now infected by the same virus that already took two of his kind. Even though Gideon was able to calm him down the first time, he erupted again, but this time the Legacy Virus overwhelmed him. Cannonball's blast field saved the others from the explosion, and he was surprised to find Absalom survived. So with Cannonball's word that as long as they try to do better, be it an hour, a day or a century, and if the time comes, if he is able to he will save their lives. And with that Saul and Gideon carrying an unconscious Absalom, left.; ===Murdered by Selene===; Selene had been waiting for centuries for this moment, never before could she overtake all the other Externals. But with Nicodemus and Burke still not risen from their deaths, and Apocalypse soon to rise from his. She saw her chance to drain the life force of the remaining Externals and achieve godhood. And with the coming terror of Onslaught, she made her move.; She caught Gideon and Saul off guard and quickly attacked them, leading Gideon to reach out to Sunspot. Sunspot and Caliban arrived to find Gideon's corpse being thrown out the window and crashing into the streets in front of them. Having sensed the sudden death of two of their own, Crule and Absalom appeared and, believing they were involved, attacked. Despite their best efforts, the two Externals proved to be too much. Fortunately, the rest of X-Force appeared, but it was still difficult to handle the two. When X-Force finally brought down the two, Selene used it to sneak in and quickly drain the life force of Absalom. Everyone was shocked, but Crule became angry because of this betrayal and attacked her. She trapped him in a bubble, X-Force tried to save him but couldn't, and she also drained Crule's life force. With a telekinetic bolt to Selene, Cable suddenly appeared. But she wasn't down for good, and after failing to drain Cable too, they all attacked her. Only to be met with a powerful blast that knocked everyone out, save for Boomer, now called Meltdown. She warned Selene that she would never get Cannonball, that the X-Men would stop her. Selene cut her off and told Meltdown that Cannonball was not an actual External. As Selene disappeared, she told Meltdown to ask her mentor Cable about it.; Surprisingly, Selene did not hunt down the remaining Externals. But instead, she set about recruiting others to join her Hellfire Club, in preparation for Bastion and the coming Onslaught.; ===The Newer Mutants===; The Externals were later revealed to be alive and well once again, only now they are at the mercy of a mysterious new killer who was somehow connected to the timestream. To investigate this odd occurrence, Cable assembled a new team of mutants in hopes of discovering the killer's identity. Initial suspicions were directed towards Selene, given her complex history with both her own kind and the X-Men. While aware of the killer's presence, having sensed the death of fellow External Candra, she laughed aloud at Cable's assumption that Selene herself was the last of her kind. Nicodemus, Absalom, and Crule then revealed themselves to be alive.; ===External Gateway===; Apocalypse summoned through their shared psychic-link fellow Externals Saul, Candra, Selene, Nicodemus, Absalom, Crule and Gideon to the Eternal Caldera of Krakoa. There he revealed his plans sacrifice them, but they were unwilling to go along with his belief of what their purpose should be nor willing to sacrifice themselves for his goals. Apocalypse would force them to be sacrificed by playing his trump card in a newly enhanced Rictor. After Gideon and Selene choose to stand with Apocalypse, Rictor unintentionally killing Saul, Candra and Nicodemus in an explosive wave of lava. A weakened Absalom was allowed to live for Apocalypse needed four for the ritual to transform their ancient bones into a gateway to Otherworld and to Arakko.; Apocalypse's plans were temporarily halted by Candra, who used a similar ritual he was attempting and one they used long ago to place her energy into her Heart-Gem and hide it in Avalon's Starlight Citadel. Gambit who had been sent to Avalon with the rest of Excalibur by Apocalypse happened to find the Gem. Apocalypse opened the gateway so Rictor could telepathically warn Captain Britain, she asked Gambit to throw the Gem through the gate. Despite Candra's protests he did and with the Gem finding its mark, the ritual was done.; With Saul, Crule, Nicodemus, and Candra's ancient bones, containing their life energy, turned into the stones that power the External Gate, trapping them and allowing the whole of Krakoa to enter Otherworld as Apocalypse planned.; ===Fall of X===; Following the Mutant Massacre at the Hellfire Gala, the mutant population of Earth was scattered. Although she had been working with Sebastian Shaw and Orchis for a time, Selene eventually returned to her base in Nova Roma, where she began using Absalom, Burke, Gideon and the newly resurrected and enslaved Externals to gather in mutants (and depowered mutants) from across the globe. This attracted the attention of the X-Corps which led to a battle that left most (Selene, Saul, Absalom, Crule, and Nicodemus) of the Externals in a stasis chamber living either a constant dream of winning for Selene and a constant nightmare for the others by the powers of Tempo and Somnus.; ==Powers==; True Immortality: The Externals' immortality does not become active when their mutant powers do, but rather when they meet their first death (this would explain why Nicodemus and Saul, though in incredible shape, are physically older then the rest of their fellow Externals).; Self-Resurrection: As immortals, they have shown to be able to resurrect themselves from death in a number of ways. Such as when Nicodemus was killed by the Legacy Virus, which caused him to be consumed by his own powers, and yet he was found 10 years later alive and well. After Burke was killed by having his heart eaten, and body destroyed, he was seen as a newly born baby and a few years later back to a full grown adult. When Candra failed to fully revive herself, she was seen some time later in the form of her 13 year old self. Absalom was killed instantly when he had a hole blown through his chest, but quickly revived himself moments later. The time it takes for an External to return appears to depend on what has been done to them, ranging from mere seconds to hours, days or longer.Like Apocalypse, who has revived himself by his Techno-Organic Virus. Gideon, who had his body placed in stasis to keep himself from reviving for years. Selene, who has used magic and deals to return. Candra has been seen using blood ritual sacrifices and her Psionic Vampirism.; Rapid Healing: Ability to endure injuries (within unknown limits) without lasting harm or even feeling pain, they could apparently regenerate injured or missing cells from even near-fatal injuries.; Mind Link: External shares a telepathic-link with their fellow Externals that allows them to not only sense each other and where, but can call on each other at will from great distances. They can also able to sense when one rises from their first death and when one is killed by another External.; External Life-Force: Externals can drain the essence of their fellow Externals and temporarily gain their powers. This can be done by either eating the heart or draining the life force of their brethren. Once she or he has succeeded, he or she will gain the powers of the ones killed in addition to his or her own powers. The length of time she or he will be able retain the stolen power is unknown. But it seems to last until the slain External returns, which could take hours or days, and also depend on the individual. It's believed that once the External has successfully taken the essence of all the others, that one will gain a unknown type of godhood.; ==Weakness==; Externals can only be truly killed by another External, either by having their life-force drained or heart eaten. The one responsible will gain the other Externals powers, in the belief that they will became a god. But if the External responsible fails to do the same to all of the other Externals, then the ones killed will came back and the responsible one will lose all the extra power gained.

+History:
+The Executive Elite was a mercenary organization formed by mutant cyberpath Garabed Bushur. The members of the organization were Bashur as Commcast, blade artist Rive, who wielded an energy sword and wore wrist-mounted spikes, and the last member of the group was techno-construct assembler Makeshift, who could rapidly create technology advanced weapons. With his knowledge of cloning, Bashur made copies of himself and his teammates, but a problem with the process ultimately prevented further duplication, leaving him one last ancillary body. When Nyko Halfghanaghan sought revenge for the apparent murder of his brother Pico, he tasked the Courier with hiring the Executive Elite to eliminate the three main suspects on his list; mercenary Deadpool, mutant soldier Cable, and mutant shape-shifter Copycat. As payment, they were offered information on the will of arms dealer Tolliver, which was to lead to a hidden cache of advanced technology. Realizing that they needed the information that the Elite had, Deadpool and his associate Weasel lured the Elite into the open by making Deadpool a target; clones of Bashur and his teammates ambushed Deadpool in Sarajevo, where Deadpool was rendered unconscious with a strong electrical charge. They took Deadpool to their mobile base known as "the Edsel," where they sought to learn more about Tolliver's will by using a device to tap into Deadpool's memories; however, Weasel rescued him. Bashur sought to escape, but was killed by Weasel while Deadpool killed Rive and Makeshift; Deadpool and Weasel gained the information they sought.

+Created by: Alan Davis; Dougie Braithwaite
+Reality: Earth-99476
+History:
+A superhero team consisting of Britainixus Rex, Shadowcompsognathus, Lockheed, Megon and Nightstrutter, who combat supernatural threats in the British Isles.; They are summoned to the W.H.O Base at the Tower of London where Brigadier Stuart shows Excalibur a recording, of a family and a Beefeater who disappeared some months ago. As the lights turn on, it is revealed that this is not Earth-616. It is Earth-99476, a world where Reptiles continue to be dominant. Alysaur Stuart tells Excalibur that the humans have been kidnapped and taken to the Savage Land by the High Evolutionary. Brigadier Alysdon Stuart introduces Dr. Karl Lykos, the W.H.O expert on the Savage Land. He begins to describe it, before suffering a panic attack. Alysdon Stuart goes on to say that the Fantastic Five have disappeared in the savage land, and also need help. Excalibur set off on their journey.; Later, Excalibur’s ship approaches the Savage Land. Their world is free from pollution, except for this city. As they clear the smog bank, missiles appear before them, giving them just enough time to bail out before the ship is destroyed. As they land safely, they are set upon by a group of savages, who Kitty recognises as humans. Before they can attack, they are scared of by a miaow. The cat, Zabu, slinks back to its master, who Britanicus Rex recognises as Ka-Zar, former Lord of the Savage Land. Forced to retire due to medical advice, he points out the High Evolutionary’s tower and then disappears into the night.; At the High Evolutionary’s tower, Excalibur enter through the landing bay, where they are attacked by the Fantastic Five. As Arachnosaur wraps Alysaur in webs, they realise they are under some kind of mind control. Shadowcompsognathus phases through Invisiguanadon’s force field, and knocks her out, while Britannicus Rex knocks out the Thing. As Nightstrutter teleports around the bay, Saur Fantastic overstretches himself and gets stuck. As Megon causes Dinotorch to blow up a water tank, Shadowcompsognathus phases Arachnosaur’s web spinners, which stick him to the floor. As soon as they have defeated the Fantastic Five, a wall rises, revealing the High Evolutionary, who intends to stabilise the humans of the world with the DNA of those from Earth-616, and then conquer the earth. But Dr. Lykos shouts him down, and then pulls wires out of his machine until it explodes. As the smoke clears, Excalibur find Lykos is dead, and the High Evolutionary has disappeared. His humans have returned to their original forms without the machine, to small mammals called Triconodons. As they rescue the humans, Saur Fantastic and the rest of the fantastic five, free from their mind control, devise a way to build a portal to Earth-616 with parts of the machine.; Suddenly, in a burst of light, Excalibur of Earth-99476 and the Fantastic Five appear on Earth-616, along with the missing humans. They look in horror at their fellow reptiles, devolved back to their primitive forms. They swing into action, and eventually manage to guide their people towards the portal, which returns them home.

Using that Exonim, X-Force managed to enter the Master Mold's area, and later escorted Cypher along with Cable to the Sentinel center, in order to deactivate it, killing several Exonims in the process.

+History:
+The early history of Excalibur largely mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts.; Excalibur was a team of both mutant and human heroes founded by Captain Britain. Following the mutation of humanity, and the dissolution of the X-Men, Excalibur continued their fight as heroes. During an encounter with the Grey Gargoyle, the entire team of Excalibur was petrified by the Gargoyle's powers. In a fit of rage, Captain Britain killed him, realizing too late that in doing so, he had ensured that no one could reverse Exaclibur's fate.; The sole survivor, besides Captain Britain, was Nightcrawler, who lost his arm and was temporarily made human by teleporting at the exact moment the Grey Gargoyle used his powers. He was discovered by Mephisto, who manipulated him into becoming Belasco.; Captain Britain searched for years for ways of reversing Excalibur's fate, bringing alternate reality versions of the Grey Gargoyle to Earth-9997 in the hopes that they could undo the petrification, to no avail. He even found the legendary sword of Excalibur, a blade capable of cutting through stone, but ultimately chose not to use it, afraid that the blade would kill his teammates rather than free them.; Excalibur were ultimately freed by Mephisto, posing as an alternate reality version of the Grey Gargoyle, just before Captain Britain's wedding to Queen Medusa. In doing so, Mephisto hoped to destabilize England, through the chaos generated by freeing Captain Britain's first wife Meggan just before his wedding.

They were led by Pete Wisdom who was bound to a wheelchair. Wisdom assembled the team to inform them of a mission to rescue the long lost Douglock, who might have possessed valuable information about Black Air. Karma assisted the field team by using her telepathic powers to possess a team member and maintain communication to the headquarters.; Excalibur forced its way in the Black Air building where the team encountered techno-organic creatures mimicking the Brood and they realized that the walls were alive and, thus, dangerous. After dispatching the creatures, they confronted a neural lock protecting Douglock's enclosure. With Betsy's psychic powers, they opened the door and found Douglock, who had been dissected and fully integrated into Black Air's operating system. Suddenly, Excalibur was surrounded by Black Air operatives.

Jamie intended for this new Betsy to be the first of a new Captain Britain Corps, but when she violently refused he implemented another solution instead. An incoming volley killed Betsy and the pocket reality fractured again so that all four of her companions were each offered the Amulet of Right and transformed into a new Captain Britain.; These new Captains were later captured on Otherworld by Saturnyne who considered them heretical and planned to have them destroyed. However, they managed to escape and went rogue against their creator, attempting to kill him. They were no match for his reality-bending powers and he easily killed Jubilee as an example to others.

+Notes: The Exiles were formed by incarcerated mutants who had disrespected one of the three laws of Krakoa. They were sentenced to be secluded from the Krakoan society in the Pit of Exile. Their offenses regard the following laws:; Make more mutants: Third Eye was convicted after using his astral projection powers to convince other Krakoans to stop creating children recklessly.; Murder no man: The following Exiles were charged of killing humans out of the Krakoan jurisdiction. Nekra and Oya killed pirates who confronted them on the shores of the island of Krakoa, Orphan-Maker executed Right soldiers and two innocent rangers during a rampage, Nanny chose to share Orphan-Maker's sentence as his caretaker, and Toad was unjustly implicated in the murder of the Scarlet Witch, as part of a ritual partially planned by Magneto.; Respect this sacred land: Melter was arrested after using his destructive powers on the structures of Krakoa, and Madison Jeffries was sentenced for having illegally created an artificial environment for the android Danger.
+Trivia: Nekra suggested they call themselves "Morlocks" before they chose the name "Maroons".
+History:
+===Exiled===; Mutants that disrespected the three Krakoan laws, i.e., "Make more mutants", "Murder no man", and "Respect this sacred land", were sentenced to be in stasis in the Pit of Exile. The first Krakoan inmate was the vicious Sabretooth, who brutally killed humans during a mission for Krakoa. However, Sabretooth was able to commune with the illusory environment of the Pit of Exile, becoming an oppressor to other captives, namely Third Eye, Nekra, Oya, Madison Jeffries, and Melter. He tricked these other inmates into helping him break free, but ultimately abandoned them to have a better chance. Hijacking Bling!'s boat, Sabretooth sailed to the seas. The linguist mutant Cypher, who was able to directly speak to Krakoa, released the group of inmates in addition to Toad, Nanny, and Orphan-Maker. He then sent them on a mission out of Krakoa, to stop Sabretooth from being a mutant threat in the human world.; These Exiles pursued Sabretooth, as directed by Third Eye, who had established a psychic link with the murderer mutant. However, Sabretooth had been apprehended by the anti-mutant organization Orchis, being tortured and experimented on by the sadistic Doctor Barrington. The Exiles arrived at an island station of Orchis' and were intercepted by Barrington's agents. The unattended Sabretooth made his escape and piloted Bling!'s boat once again, offering the Exiles salvation. During the conflict with Doctor Barrington, Jeffries was killed, while Nanny and Orphan-Maker would leave the team soon after.; During the Sabretooth War, Sabretooth was able to enslave Wolverine using Quentin Quire's telepathy, tricking him into killing Toad and Melter. Oya would then leave to join Cyclops' new team of X-Men in Merle, Alaska, leaving the fate of the Exiles unknown.

+Transportation: Ariel and Vanisher (for his own purpose) teleportation powers.
+Notes: In her plot to assemble a pool of mutant beings, Ariel had collected various kind of specimens:; Vanisher, Sunspot, Siryn, Boom Boom: Classic Human mutants, or Homo superior; "Multiple Man", a duplicate from Madrox; An independent duplicate: Madrox Independent Dupe, from a Secondary Mutation or for being a Mutate.; Chance, a latent mutant.; Non-Human Mutants; A mutant lobster: Don (whose mutation was only a color alteration); A mutant dinosaur from the past or from an alternate timeline: Devil Dinosaur,; An ape-man mutant from the same origin: Moon Boy; A Technarch mutant: Warlock; A Coconut Grove mutant: Ariel, herself, first mutant of her species.
+History:
+The Fallen Angels was a group of superhuman individuals, primarily made up of adolescent mutants, that was based at the Beat Street Club in Manhattan, New York.; The group began as a gang of adolescent thieves organized by the adult mutant criminal the Vanisher. Among his recruits were the young mutant Boom Boom, the cyborg Gomi and his two cybernetically-enhanced lobsters Bill and Don, a runaway named Chance, who did not know she herself was a superhuman mutant, and a young female named Ariel, who, unknown to the Vanisher, was actually an extraterrestrial from a planet she calls the Coconut Grove. In reality, Ariel was the driving force behind the group, as she had been secretly assigned by the government of her home planet to gather a collection of superhuman mutants for her planet's scientists to study. She had used Chance as an accomplice to this end, not realizing that Chance was a mutant herself.; On his side, the Vanisher was only intending to gather a group of thieves to supply him and to live comfortably without working. He was scared to death from the mutants-hunters teams such as X-Factor or the Marauders.; After accidentally injuring his teammate Cannonball, a deeply ashamed Sunspot left his own team, the New Mutants, and ran away to the city, with his teammate Warlock accompanying him, trying to keep him from harm. They encountered Chance, who led them to the Fallen Angels, and the two were invited to join. Associates of the New Mutants, Siryn and the Multiple Man, secretly a rogue duplicate of the main Jamie Madrox, were asked to follow Sunspot, and they soon encountered and joined the group as well. Some time later, secretly following up on stories she had heard, Ariel took the group to Earth-78411, where they encountered and befriended extra-dimensional mutants Devil Dinosaur and Moon Boy.; Another Madrox Duplicate from the Fallen Angels' Madrox joined the team later, but refuse to rejoin the "original". It was revealed both by Mini-Cerebro and the fact to having not been vanished during Madrox's powers nullifying by Chance that he was a mutated duplicated, a mutation of a mutation.; Finally, the Fallen Angels journeyed to Ariel's home planet, after Chance's powers endangered the team, nullifying the peace-mutation of Warlock, and making the Vanisher believe he was targeted by some mutants-hunter, and allowing Ariel to teleport them, pretendly for their safety, herself unbeknownst of the source of the disturbances.; There, they were made captives. Ariel turned against her home planet's ruler Unipar when he took not only her friend Chance but also Ariel herself captive as well, since they both proved to possess superhuman mutant powers. The Fallen Angels regained their freedom and returned to Earth, but the mutated duplicate was reabsorbed by "the real Madrox".; Sunspot and Warlock returned to the New Mutants, and eventually Siryn and Multiple Man returned to their base at the Muir Island research facility. Boom Boom left to become inducted as a trainee of the original mutant team X-Factor. Moon Boy and Devil returned to their homeworld, while Vanisher returned to crime. Ariel eventually resurfaced after M-Day in San Francisco, while Chance's subsequent fate remains unrevealed. "Multiple Man" later allied with Mr. Sinister into his Nasty Boys, and briefly absorbed the original James Madrox, using his adventure in the Fallen Angels to make the new X-Factor and even Madrox himself believe he was the original.

+The powerful, criminal, secret organization Factor Three sent agents Ogre and the mind-controlled Banshee after the X-Men in an attempt to kidnap Professor X. Freeing Banshee from Factor Three's control, the X-Men easily defeated Ogre and foiled the plot.; Factor Three struck again when the Professor attempted to cure his step-brother of being the Juggernaut. The resulting experiment of both science and sorcery ended with the Juggernaut's revival and the Professor near the brink of death. Factor Three mentally contacted the Juggernaut and tried to get him to join their group. The X-Men ultimately stopped the Juggernaut with the aid of Dr. Strange, helping force Marko into the Crimson Cosmos. However, during the process, Factor Three kidnapped the Professor.; When Banshee attempted to contact the X-Men after learning of Factor Three's European headquarters, his message was interrupted, leading to the X-Men briefly battling Spider Man, mistakenly believing the Wall-Crawler was a member of Factor Three.; Arriving in Europe, the X-Men were quickly captured by Factor Three, whose membership included the Vanisher, Blob, Unus the Untouchable, and Mastermind as well as two new villains: the Changeling and Mutant Master. The group found the X-Men "guilty" of betraying mutantkind and sentenced them to death. Before executing the X-Men, Factor Three revealed that they intended to initiate World War III by attacking both the United States and Russia, sparking a nuclear exchange between the two. The X-Men split into two, foiling both plots and confronted Mutant Master at his headquarters in the United States.; There, with the aid of the Changeling, they freed the Professor. Mutant Master was revealed as a member of the alien race, Siris. The X-Men and Factor Three worked together to stop Mutant Master and parted peacefully but vowed to meet again as enemies.

+Trivia: }
+History:
+===Formation===; The genesis of the group known as Fantastic Force had its beginnings with the machinations of Nathaniel Richards, who sought to put a stop to the being known as Hyperstorm, a powerful being that threatened all history. In order to prevent this, Nathaniel traveled to the modern age of Earth-616 and took young Franklin Richards, son of Mister Fantastic (Nathaniel's son) and the Invisible Woman of the Fantastic Four. Nathaniel replaced Franklin with a teenaged counterpart who was trained in the control of his powers by Nathaniel. This version of Franklin spent years in the realm known as Elsewhen where he was trained by Nathaniel, his supposed aunt Huntara and Elsewhen's ruler Warlord Kargul. Soon after this switch, Huntara came to the modern age to try and preserve the timeline and prevent Nathaniel or the Fantastic Four from disrupting the proper course of history. Eventually, the teenaged Franklin (now calling himself Psi-Lord) was reunited with Huntara and the pair began working together for their mutual goals.; Not long after this, the people of Wakanda began experimenting with a process to regenerate their supply of Vibranium in order to maintain their economic dependence on the rare substance. The first test resulted in an explosion that killed many and endowed a young Wakandan youth named N'Kano with uncontrollable vibrational powers. The Black Panther equipped him with a suit to regulate these powers. He then sought out his allies to train the boy. He first visited the Inhuman Royal Family to assist him but, being in exile at the time, they were unable to help. They also placed a young Inhuman known as Devlor. Psi-Lord, Huntara, as well as the Black Panther and his charges sought the assistance of the Fantastic Four, arriving at the team's headquarters in the middle of their fight with the Dark Raider. Although the Dark Raider was defeated the Fantastic Four split up due to a number of personal differences among the members of the team.; Deciding to take matters into his own hands and seeking to fill the void caused by the Fantastic Four breaking up, the Black Panther decided to finance and back a new group, dubbed the Fantastic Force. He then recruited Psi-Lord, Huntara, N'Kano (now calling himself Vibraxas), and Devlor. He set the group up in a loft located in the SoHo district of Manhattan. However this was not a smooth transition as Vibraxas had a massive superiority complex over the others, particularly Devlor, whose mannerisms and behavior offended N'Kano's sensibilities. Not long after the group was formed, the Black Panther was called to speak to the United Nations. The announcement reached his old foe Klaw who sought to get revenge against the Panther for past defeats. When Klaw attacked the loft, he had to face off against the newly formed Fantastic Force. The group scored their first victory by putting aside their differences and fighting together as a team. Klaw was easily defeated and handed over to the authorities. In the aftermath of the battle each member agreed that they should remain together as a team, for better or for worse.; ===Early Adventures===; The earliest adventure of the Fantastic Force occurred when they came to the aid of Empire State University professor Issac Sandor, whose new Omnivirus became targeted by Zarathustra, an agent of Lord Moses a powerful being who sought to create a Biblical apocalypse in order to create a new paradise on Earth for his followers. Although the team managed to stop the attack, Zarathustra managed to escape with the Omnivirus. Psi-Lord vowed to Sandor that they would recover it at all costs. Also during this adventure the Fantastic Force came into contact with Daily Globe reporter Paul Alvarez, whose association with the group would lead to shocking revelations later. While Vibraxas got first hand experience with American bigotry, Psi-Lord sought to put Devlor into high school to get an education and learn about human culture. Devlor soon became a target of the Inhuman Genetic Council who saw his ability to change between human and bestial forms as an aberration. They sent the Seeker to apprehend him leading to a battle with Fantastic Force. Ultimately, the Seeker became convinced that Devlor was destined to be "the One", and left to report that Devlor was killed when resisting apprehension.; When Advanced Idea Mechanics lost control of their latest Super-Adaptoid it went on a rampage through New York City. The Fantastic Force teamed up with Captain America to halt the rampage. They banished the Adaptoid to an dimensional void saving thousands of lives in the process. This victory gained Fantastic Force a great deal of popularity among New Yorkers. The group later teamed up with the Secret Defenders to battle Slorioth. The group was later attacked by the symbiote known as Dreadface that sought to take control of Psi-Lord's body and powers. However, Huntara forced the creature out of his body and banished it to another dimension. She also revealed that if Franklin was ever to lose control of his powers, per instructions from Warlord Kargul, she would destroy him. The group later stopped a jewel heist carried out by the Grey Gargoyle. Not long after this, Vibraxas learned of an escalating street gang war between the Wakandan Lords and Sons of Sinanju, the Fantastic Force ventured into Manhattan's Korean district to stop a gun fight. This led to a clash with the super-powered Japanese American gang leader calling himself Go-Devil. While the gang war was stopped, Vibraxas accidentally killed a member of the Sons of Sinanju in self-defense, an act that both mortified and shamed N'Kano who strictly followed the doctrine of Wakandan culture that revered all life.; The group was later approached by Lyja the estranged ex-wife of the Fantastic Four's Human Torch. She told them how the Torch was visited by an burning effigy of his sister the Invisible Woman warning him of a coming doom. Although she tried to join the newly reformed Fantastic Four on this mission she was left behind and sought the Fantastic Force's help tracking them down. They were also visited by the burning effigy telling the group to aid the Fantastic Four on the moon. Instead of blindly following it, Huntara detected that it was a holographic projection. The Fantastic Force followed the projection to its source, Castle Doom in Latveria, and learned that it was the product of Nathaniel Richards and his machinations. The group stopped Huntara from slaying Nathaniel and Psi-Lord lead his group to the moon. There they assisted the Fantastic Four in rescuing the Invisible Woman who was trapped in the Negative Zone following the groups battle with Aron the Rogue Watcher. Huntara used her abilities to save Sue and soon both groups use a transporter to follow the Watchers who were poised to do battle against the enigmatic Celestials. Learning that Aron was still on the lose, Fantastic Force left Devlor behind to help with the conflict between the Watchers and Celestials and joined the Thing, Ant-Man and Kristoff Vernard traveled to a secret hideout between Mars and Jupiter. There they battled Aron, who used a device to pull various Fantastic Four villains out of the past to battle the heroes. They eventually stopped Aron's plot to try and destroy the universe and create a new one which he could control. While at the same time, the Fantastic Four dealt with the conflict with the Celestials. Upon their return to Earth, the members of Fantastic Force attended a funeral for Mister Fantastic who was believed to be deceased at the time.; ===Atlantis Rising===; Not long after this the sorceress Morgan Le Fay has used her mystical powers to raise the contentment of Atlantis from the ocean floor. Simultaneously, Nathaniel Richards failed to breach the Watcher's Citadel on the Blue Area of the Moon, activating it's automated defenses. These defenses threatened to destroy the Inhuman city of Attilan which existed on the moon at the time. Learning that a human was responsible, the Inhuman military corps known as the Crimson Cadre traveled to Earth with an Atmo-Gun to destroy humanity. While they had departed, the Fantastic Four came to the rescue of Attilan, shrinking it in size and bringing it aboard their ship the Stealth-Hawk. When the Crimson Cadre materialized on the Hawaiian islands, Fantastic Force faced off against them. During the battle Lord Arcadius attempted to convince Devlor to join their side, but he refused and Crimson Cadre was eventually defeated and trapped within a Negative Zone Barrier. Returning home the Fantastic Force received a shot when they were visited by Paul Alvarez, who was convinced that their teammate Huntara was his long lost sister Maria.; As this was happening, Nathaniel Richards succeeded in stealing the shrunken city of Attilan from the Fantastic Four while they were busy battling Maximus and his renegade Inhumans, but was forced to take a brainwashed Human Torch with him. Seeking to learn the truth about Huntara's past, the Fantastic Force tracked Nathaniel to the Castle of Doctor Doom, there Nathaniel refused to answer Huntara's question and the Force was caught in a battle with the brainwashed Human Torch until Psi-Lord could use his powers to reverse the process. Still looking for answers, the elder Richards refused to provide any, stating that his plans were intended for defeating a great evil and that Franklin had an important role in the eventual conflict. Refusing to side with his grandfather, Psi-Lord was blasted by Nathaniel causing his mental powers to flare out of control. Nathaniel then tried to escape with Attilan but became a prisoner of Triton, Morgan le Fay's slave who also absconded with Attilan. When Franklin's powers finished flaring out of control they soon discovered this attack had a shocking side effect, a portion of his personality was now a physical manifestation of his younger self, latter dubbed the Tattletale.; Eventually, Fantastic Force joined the Fantastic Four, the Sub-Mariner and Thor on a final strike against Morgan le Fay and her Inhuman allies. During the ensuing battle Franklin also manifested yet another personality, the Ego-Spawn. Ultimately, Morgan le Fay was defeated but Atlantis remained risen and Attilan was restored to its normal size on its surface.; ===The New Fantastic Force===; With Franklin's powers flaring out of control and forming yet another construct (the Avatar), he turned over the reigns of control to his uncle the Human Torch who took on leadership of the group. The Black Panther also returned to the team after learning of the death of a youth at the hands of Vibraxas. The Torch decided to get the team back on track by locating and recovering the stolen Omnivirus before it could be used for evil means. With the help of Ego-Spawn, the group tracked Lord Moses and Zarathustra back to their hideout located beneath Mount Ararat in Turkey. Leaving Franklin behind, the group battled Zarathustra again before being captured by Lord Moses. Learning that Lord Moses had stolen nuclear warheads and sought to use them with the Omnivirus to create a Biblical apocalypse, Fantastic Force broke free from their bonds and renewed their battle. During the fight, Devlor managed to climb onto one of the warheads moments before it was launched in an attempt to disable it. He was exposed to the Omnivirus, trapping him in his bestial form. Unable to destroy the missile himself, Devlor abandoned it while the Torch destroyed it with a nova blast. In the confusion, Lord Moses and Zarathustra managed to escape. Returning back to their headquarters, Huntara detected that Franklin had ventured back to Elsewhen and that there was a great danger there. The group instantly traveled to Elsewhen where they discovered it was under threat by the powerful reality destroying being known as Vangaard.; During the course of the battle, Devlor seemingly perished at the hands of Vangaard and Franklin and his composites seemingly sacrificed their lives trying to destroy their foe with anti-matter energy. However the key to defeating Vangaar came when Huntara read his mind and learned that he was Johnny Storm from an alternate reality. Having the Human Torch confront Vangaard one on one, he managed to re-awaken his long lost humanity. Realizing that Elsewhen's time was still not yet finished, Vangaard departed without further incident. As it turned out, Devlor was only pushed forward in time and Franklin was rescued by Warlord Kargul's men; had his mind restored; and provided new Psycho-Armor to regulate his powers. With Huntara deciding to stay behind, Fantastic Force returned to their native reality. There they were greeted by Johnny's longtime friend Wyatt Wingfoot who asked for their help in finding out what was wrong with his ex-girlfriend the She-Hulk. Unaware that she was under the possession of Diablo, they stopped her from stealing an ancient statue called the Guardian of Chthon. Suspecting that she was under the influence of the Puppet Master, the group confronted him at his home. There they were embarrassed to learn that the Puppet Master was trying to turn over a new leaf and sheepishly departed after being chastised by his step-daughter Alicia. Having worked well together with the She-Hulk, Fantastic Force offered her membership on the team, something she accepted. However, they would not find out she was still under Diablo's thrall until it was too late.; Called to Wakanda so that Vibraxas could stand trial for the murder of the gang youth, Fantastic Force learned of the Vibranium accident that gave him his power and took the life of his mother. However, the victims of the accident were not dead, only transformed into a massive gestalt comprised of Vibranium and human flesh that was later dubbed the Mound Monster. Although the Mound Monster was ultimately stopped by the team, a combination of the battle and the on going mutagenic effects of the Omnivirus was appearing to have a fatal affect on Devlor. To make matters worse, because of the negative image created by Vibraxas killing a youth, the Black Panther was forced to pull funding from the group. Rushed back to the United States, Devlor was put on life support as Professor Sandor tried in vein to try and cure him. Accepting the inevitable, the group paid their final respects and Devlor seemingly passed away. However much to their surprise his human form was reborn out of the carcass of his former form, and apparently incapable of transforming anymore. It was also at this time that Johnny returned to the Fantastic Four, returning leadership back to Psi-Lord.; ===Disbanding===; Forced to move in with the She-Hulk, the remaining members of Fantastic Force were finally vulnerable to Diablo's trap and were kidnapped thanks to his thrall the She-Hulk. Soon they learned that Diablo was attempting to manipulate Psi-Lord into helping him defeat Mephisto. While Psi-Lord was tricked into thinking he was reliving past memories, the other members of Fantastic Force managed to break free and stop Diablo's plan before it could come to fruition. With news that the Fantastic Four's Mister Fantastic had been found alive and well, Franklin returned to his family, spelling the end of Fantastic Force. Not long after this, Franklin was restored back to childhood by Hyperstorm. Ultimately, Hyperstorm's threat was ended by the Fantastic Four.; Learning that Franklin was captured by the psychic entity known as Onslaught, the Black Panther, Devlor, Vibraxas, and Huntara reunited and reformed Fantastic Force during the Onslaught crisis to assist. When Franklin attempted to use his mutant powers to send a distress to his family, Onslaught intercepted it and used it to send constructs of the Fantastic Four's greatest foes against the heroes assembled at the Four Freedoms Plaza. The members of Fantastic Force came to the aid of the Fantastic Four and their allies in fighting off this invasion.

+The history of the Fantastic Five (nee Four) of Earth-982 paralleled that of their Earth-616 counterparts until roughly the birth of Spider-Man's first child.; The original Fantastic Four evolved into the Fantastic Five after an encounter with Hyperstorm in the Negative Zone. Injuries forced Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman to remain behind in the Zone, and so the Human Torch stepped up as the new leader of the Fantastic Five, with his wife Lyja and the Richards' son Franklin filling out the roster.; Nowadays, the Fantastic Five remain one of the premier super-teams on the planet, based out of the Five Freedoms Plaza in New York. When Dr Doom was sighted in Latveria, the United Nations asked the F5 to investigate.

+Reality: Earth-772
+Base of operations: Baxter Building
+Transportation: Space shuttle
+History:
+On Earth-616, Spider-Man, a new hero and broke teenager, decided to put his powers to use and attempt to join the Fantastic Four for pay and adventure. He broke in to the Baxter Building and broke in to display his abilities, only to be trapped in a glass container by the Fantastic Four. He broke out and asked to join but was turned down due to his bad reputation with the Daily Bugle, and because the Fantastic were a government funded and non-profit organization. On Earth-772, Spidey joined anyway, reluctantly telling the four his true identity.; As the Fantastic Five, the team started out well, stopping the Vulture's crime spree, forcing the Chameleon into hiding, and winning the Space Race for the United States. They found the Red Ghost, his Super-Apes, and Uatu the Watcher on the moon. (Instead of Sue Storm being on the spacecraft, as in the original Fantastic Four storyline, Spider-Man was aboard and Sue was monitoring the mission from Earth).; When the four returned to Earth, having captured the Super Apes, they found that Sue has been captured by the Sub-Mariner, who was secretly being controlled by the Puppet Master. A mental projection of Namor tells where Sue is, and they went after her. After a brief fight with Namor, the Puppet Master became desperate to defeat this new team, and pushed the Sub-Mariner even harder in the fight, almost killing him. Always thinking two steps ahead, Richards realized Namor was being controlled after a quip from Spider-Man. Breaking the spell, Namor communicated with a massive octopus and had it break through the underwater dome and crash into the Puppet Master's submarine. While Spider-Man and the Human Torch fixed the broken dome, Mister Fantastic and the Sub-Mariner allowed Sue to decide who she showed stay with. She chose the Sub-Mariner, feeling as though she was no longer needed on the Fantastic Five, making it the Fantastic Four once again.; The others continued as the Fantastic Four, but Reed and Johnny blamed Spider-Man for Sue's leaving, while the Thing felt they were both being unfair on Peter. A rift developed while the team battled foes such as Doctor Doom, Super-Skrull, and Mad Thinker and his Awesome Android, eventually driving Spider-Man and the Thing to leave the team in anger. Soon thereafter, Namor invited the team to celebrate the birth of his and Sue's first child and a bitter Reed misinterpreted Namor's actions. The two came to blows and Reed with Johnny Storm's support soon framed Namor before the United Nations in an attempt to start a war with Atlantis. After the Thing revealed Reed's treachery to the UN, Johnny and Reed were left disgraced, and they decided to attack Atlantis themselves. While the Warlord Krang sacrificed his life defending Atlantis, Reed witnessed Sue's devotion to Namor and came to his senses. He ended the attack and rededicated his life to bringing peace between the surface world and Namor's Atlantis even as Sue gave birth to Namor's first son, Leonard McKenzie.; Over time, Susan and Namor's differences grew too great. She and Namor amicably split, he restored her air-breathing nature and Sue left her ex-husband and son to return to the surface world. The Fantastic Five later reunited with Reed and Sue finally marrying. When Susan became pregnant with their first child the rest of the team entered the Negative Zone and battled Annihilus for the Cosmic Control Rod, which they hoped, would ensure the child's healthy birth. The mysterious Time-Twisters (who sought to destroy Earth-772's dimension to protect their own existences) brought Victor von Doom into the fray and Doom stole the Control Rod from both Annihilus and the Fantastic Five. Immortus, disguised as the Whisperer, intervened, convincing Doom to return the Rod to Reed for the good of their Universe. The remaining members of the Fantastic Five managed to return in time and Reed and Sue's first-born son was successfully delivered.; The Fantastic Five appeared on one of the Watcher's holographic windows.; At some point, the entire team (minus the Invisible Woman) was murdered by Karn, who was hunting down Spider-men, women and children all across the multiverse with Earth-772's Spider-Man being one of them. However, Spider-Man was later restored to life by Silk when she cut Morlun with the Totem Dagger. As yet, it is unclear if the rest of the Fantastic Five were restored in the process.

+Reality: Earth-98
+History:
+===Preface===; Unlike Earth-616, Earth-98 does not operate on a Sliding Timescale, and as such the passage of time and the details of events have progressed much slower. In this reality the Modern Age of Heroes (which is identified as the birth of the Fantastic Four) occurred in the year 1961, whereas the Earth-616 universe currently measures the Modern Age as being in existence for about fourteen years. When this reality was visited by the Thing of Earth-616, the modern age of his reality had existed for ten years, while the modern age of Earth-98 had existed for 37 years at that time. It should also be noted that while "year ten" of the modern age of Earth-616 will always be moving forward in time, the year that Ben Grimm-616 visited this reality will always be the calendar year 1998. Events on this world appear to be more or less analogous to Earth-616, despite the differences, but the timeframe moves much slower.; ===1960s===; In the year 1961, scientist Reed Richards, test pilot Ben Grimm, Reed's fiancé Susan Storm, and her little brother Johnny went on an unauthorized rocket flight into space in order to beat the Soviet Union in the space race. While Reed's rocket reached orbit, it was bombarded with cosmic rays, which caused the rocket to crash land. Emerging from the rocket, the four adventurers discovered that they had been endowed with super-human abilities from the cosmic rays. Reed Richards could stretch his body, Sue could turn invisible, Johnny could burst into flame, and Ben was transformed into a inhuman thing. Calling themselves Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Girl, the Human Torch and the Thing, respectively, they all agreed to use their powers for the good of mankind. They formed this world's premier group of superheroes known as the Fantastic Four. They became the vanguard of a new era of super heroes. Only 16 years old, Johnny remained with the team for many years.; The early 60s saw the birth of other superheroes as well, including Spider-Man, the Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Daredevil, Doctor Strange and the Avengers. While details of the exploits of these heroes are mostly unknown, these exploits are more or less similar to their Earth-616 counterparts, however the passage of time in which these events advanced much slower. During this period the Fantastic Four's Thing began a relationship with blind sculptress Alicia Masters in 1962. The Torch also had a romance with Crystal a member of the Inhumans in 1967. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Girl got married in the year 1963 and gave birth to their son Franklin in 1968.; ===Over the Years===; The course of history continued on much like it did on Earth-616, only at a slower rate. Johnny and Crystal's relationship ended in 1970 when the pollution of the outside world forced her to return to Attilan. By 1973 she had met and fallen in love with the speedster known as Quicksilver. They were married a year later. In the year 1982, Crystal and Quicksilver had a daughter whom they named Luna. Eventually her and Pietro's relationship ended and Crystal and Johnny reconnected, although the circumstances are unknown as they differ vastly from the events on Earth-616. In this reality, Johnny and Crystal had a son they named Raymond.; ===1998===; By the 1990s, Franklin was a full grown adult who joined up with the Fantastic Four as the "Zero Man", requiring a special headdress to keep his powers in check. Luna grew up to be a rebellious teen and began calling herself "Spike" after her ability to mentally control her hair. Ray, having developed shape-shifting powers, also joined the Fantastic Four as "Cosmic Ray". Reed and Sue retired from heroics and began exploration of the planet Mars. With Alicia Masters developing arthritis, she and the Thing retired to Arizona. Franklin soon started a relationship with Wakandan princess Zawadi. In 1996 the heroes of this world stopped the threat of Onslaught on their world, however the details of those events are also largely unrecorded. At some point Daredevil retired from heroics. As Matt Murdock he became the mayor of New York City and used his alter-ego to help promote the construction of schools for children with disabilities.; By 1998, Spike had started dating a man named Ozzie who, unaware to her, was the Fantastic Four's old foe the Wizard. Not long after this, Bruce Banner passed away due to his failing health. A day later, the Thing of Earth-616 was accidentally transported to this world thanks to a particle accelerator accident. Spotting the Thing on the New York City docks, Johnny confused Ben with the Thing of this reality. Johnny took the Thing to the Four Freedoms Plaza, where he learned how different this entire reality was and that Franklin and Zawadi were expecting a child and experienced the resentment Spike felt towards her family. Bewildered by how different things were, the Thing ventured to Avengers Mansion where he heard a poker game was being played. There he met this reality's versions of Doctor Strange, Wolverine and Thor, who quickly discovered Ben's true identity mid-game and decided to tell him how everything happened in this reality.; When the Thing returned to the Four Freedoms Plaza he exposed the Wizard's plot to infiltrate the headquarters and clashed against the Frightful Four alongside the Fantastic Four. Zero Man used his powers to open a portal into the Negative Zone trapping their foes there. At that moment Zawadi went into labor and soon gave birth to a daughter, whom she and Franklin named N'Yami Susan Richards. Shortly after N'Yami's birth, the effects of the particle accelerator wore off, sending the Thing back to his native reality.

During the fight that ensued Kali, Dogface and Visigoth were killed. Hardball and Razorback are apprehended while Pulsar and Shadowbox escape. After the fight Jerome Knox is killed by Randal, for unknown reasons. Randal is arrested but then escapes when Shadowbox and Pulsar breakout Hardball and Razorback. While being held captive by the FanatiX Randal finds out that Rook has the ability to temporarily possess others, and this was how she made Randal kill Knox. She could also control Life Model Decoys (organic clones) of other people and then assumes the appearance of Bishop. At the unveiling of the new Statue of Liberty the remaining FanatiX attack and destroy it as well as any humans at the event. Posing as Bishop the Rook reveals herself on national television thus framing Bishop. In the Rooks final stage she takes the form of Hecate the leader of the X.S.E.

When Bishop comes to free Randal the Rook kills Pulsar for his betrayal and escapes with Shadowbox, whom she also kills. Bishop then destroys all the remaining Life Model Decoys forcing the Rook to return to her original body. She is in fact Jimmy Knox the young son of the former Jerome J. Knox. He was arrested and the current status of any remaining FanatiX is unknown.

+Reality: Earth-26320
+History:
+Familiars are vampire wannabe's. They do the bidding of their vampire masters, providing usefulness in the daylight hours when vampires cannot easily operate. Their penetration of human society is extensive, and their numbers are reputed to include everything from lawyers, to police, to high-ranking government officials. One familiar was notably embedded with Blade's vampire hunting operation as a spy.; The motivations for people to become familiars are equally varied. Many are drawn to the prospect of immortality. Others simply desire the wealth and power that comes with being a familiar. Some take a more pragmatic stance and understand that they are nothing more to vampires than food, but use their status as a familiar as a form of protection against other vampires.; Familiars can be identified by their glyph tattoos which illustrate their vampire masters. Typically, these are concealed or visible on the neck where a vampire might see them. Should one vampire kill the familiar of another, he or she will be obligated to compensate the disadvantaged vampire for the inconvenience.

+History:
+Judged by his fellow Watchers for his constant interference in the lives of the people of Earth, Uatu was forced to train a young watched named Aron on the Watchers code of non-interference. However, after an interaction with the Fantastic Four, Aron became obsessed with not just observing, but controlling the events of those he watched. Developing a suit of armor that rendered him invisible to Uatu's gaze and procuring the android Dragon Man, Aron sought to obtain the DNA samples of the Fantastic Four. With the help of the Frightful Four, Aron succeeded in his task. He then created clones of the existing members of the Fantastic Four: Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch, the Thing, and Ms. Marvel.; With the real Fantastic Four put in suspended animation so he could watch their dreams, Aron sent the clones out into the world to take their place. Their first order of business was to recreate the first battle against the Fantastic Four's oldest foe, the Mole Man. Raising the previously sunken Monster Isle from the ocean floor, the cloned Fantastic Four attacked the Mole Man and his minions. After defeating their foes, the clones fled the island after setting off a massive explosion. Seeking to recreate the Fantastic Four's encounter with the Miracle Man, the clones later attacked an innocent magician during a stage performance and exposed how he performed his magic tricks to an increasingly hostile crowd. Feeling under appreciated for their "efforts", the clone of Mister Fantastic suggested that they begin charging a "Fantasti-Tax" in order to pay for their services.; Eventually the activities of the clones attracted the attention of the Avengers and Doctor Strange who came to believe that some outside force had changed the real Fantastic Four's personalities. However before the fight could get out of hand, the clones all found themselves teleported back to Aron's hideout in the Rocky Mountains. There they discovered that the Fantastic Four and Frightful Four had broken free and were battling it out, while Aron himself was trapped in suspended animation. The Fantastic Four and their clones battled it out with one another until the real Fantastic Four defeated them. Freeing himself from suspended animation, Aron came to the conclusion that experiencing the dreams of others was more fascinating than their real life exploits, he sent the Frightful Four to the Vault, the real Fantastic Four home, and spirited off to manipulate the dreams of his clones.; Although Aron has appeared since, there has been no word on the final fate of his clones.

+History:
+Years ago, shortly after superhumans first started appearing in New York City in the Modern Age, a young Dontrell Hamilton gathered five other young criminals together to form a street gang and increase their personal strength. He was inspired to do so by the supervillain group known as the Sinister Six, which joined forces in order to fight the vigilante known as Spider-Man, their common enemy.; Dontrell meet up with his girlfriend Mariah Dillard, social outcasts Lonnie Lincoln, an albino, and Mortimer Norris, who was deformed, and partners in crime Raymond Jones and Cornell Stokes to form his gang. He believed that if they could come up with a gimmick like super villains had, they could take over crime in Harlem. Lincoln had the idea to fill-in their teeth so they all were fangs. Jones, Stokes and Norris followed him in this idea. In their next meeting, Norris came up with a name and the Fang Gang was born.; However, before the Gang could actually do anything, their temporal alliance fell apart to infighting. Mortimer made advances towards Mariah, causing Dontrell and him to come to blows. Lonnie insulted Mariah’s her weight when he tried to calm Dontrell, causing both of them to leave the gang. The four remaining members of the Fang Gang went their separate ways.; ===Legacy===; While Dontrell's plans for the Fang Gang never went to fruition, the individual members of the group would all have a part to play in the criminal world of New York City.; Mortimer went to work for the Maggia, until he was exposed to a radioactive isotope he was stealing for them. Mutated further, he called himself Mister Fish and attempted to form a power base to overthrow his former employees in the Maggia, but was stopped by Power Man. He was seemly killed during the battle, but survived and became a low-level supervillain.; Mariah became known as Black Mariah, and became the leader of the Rat Pack, a street gang that focused primarily on stealing. She remained a low-level crime boss during her career.; Raymond and Cornell took the names they got after fanging their teeth, Piranha Jones and Cottonmouth, respectively. They kept on working together for a while, rejecting Dontrell for his failure in keeping the Fang Gang together. But they would eventually go on their own paths.; Raymond become a minor crime boss in the South Bronx, a small and unimportant part of a bigger criminal world. Years later, Jones got himself killed by a bomb set off by Tombstone when he attempt to overthrow a weakened Lonnie Lincoln as crimelord of Harlem.; Cornell, however, fared far better than his former partner. A few years after the failure of the Fang Gang, heroin trade rised in New York. Taking advantage of this new opportunity, Cottonmouth created a criminal enterprise centered around the heroin trade. He quickly become a leading drug lord, controlling most of the city's heroin trade. He tried to recruit Power Man into his organization, but he eventually gathered enough evidence to take down Strokes. Even after allying himself with the likes of the Rivals or the New Pride, Cottonmouth never came close to his initial success.; Dontrell came to be known as Cockroach Hamilton, a hitman for hire. He was primarily employed by Piranha Jones, his former peer in the Fang Gang, and often fought Power Man. Dontrell always resented his former friends because of their success in the criminal world compared to his. He always thought that, had the Fang Gang could have remained together, they could have governed the underworld since superpowered criminals and vigilantes weren't as abundant when they formed.; Lonnie took the name Tombstone and become a professional thug, being hired by bigger fish for dirty work. He avoided getting caught by intimidating witnesses out of testifying against him. However, Spider-Man would expose Tombstone with tapes taken by reporter Robbie Robertson. Tombstone tried to get revenge on Robertson, only to be shot and exposed to the chemical Diox-3, which gave him super strength. Using his experience with the underworld and his newfound power, Tombstone sought to ascend in the criminal hierarchy and make a name for himself. Cappable of clashing both wits and strength with the likes of the Kingpin and Spider-Man, Lonnie was by far the most successful member of the Fang Gang, climbing the criminal ladder far better than any of his once-equals. He eventually became one of the most powerful and notorious crimelords the city had ever seen.

+Trivia: Stan Lee and Jack Kirby created the Fantastic Four as Marvel Comics' answer to the Justice League of America of DC Comics. Some comic fans claim that Stan's inspiration for starting the Fantastic Four came from DC's Challengers of the Unknown team, also co-created by Jack Kirby years earlier in 1957, while still others maintain that the Fantastic Four were created to closely resemble DC's Sea Devils team.; In an interview with Jack Kirby in the The Comics Journal Kirby stated that he came up with the idea for the team, and not Stan. However, given that Kirby wasn't really in his right state of mind his words shouldn't be trusted completely, according to the interviewer Gary Groth.; Originally the whole team would have had flaws with their powers. Mister Fantastic would feel pain from using his powers, Invisible Girl would remain invisible and forced to wear a mask of her own face, Human Torch could use his powers only when he was excited. The Thing was the only member who wasn't changed.; Each of the powers (as well as their personalities) of the Fantastic Four correspond to the four basic elements according to Greek philosophy: earth (Thing), wind (Invisible Woman), fire (Human Torch), and water (Mister Fantastic).; Every member of the Fantastic Four (including all of the former members) has been on an Avengers team at some point in their career. Amongst the central FF, Reed and Sue Richards have been on the main Avengers team, the Thing was once a New Avenger, and Human Torch joined the Avengers Unity Division after the Fantastic Four disbanded as a result of the events of 2015's Secret Wars.
+History:
+This is an abridged version of Fantastic Four's history. For a complete history see Fantastic Four's Expanded History; ===Origin===; The brilliant aeronautical engineer Reed Richards inadvertently created the Fantastic Four after deciding to make an unauthorized test flight into space using an experimental faster-than-light rocket named the Marvel-1 of his own design. Reed's plan was to use the ship to visit an Earth-like planet in a star system 44 lightyears away. When Reed's financiers began to lose interest in the project, Reed's girlfriend Susan Storm and her younger brother Johnny insisted on joining Reed on the flight. Reed's old friend Ben Grimm was convinced to pilot the rocket.; Once in space, the rocket passed through a storm of cosmic radiation. Although prepared for them, the ship was met with an unexpected intensity from the radiation and its shielding couldn't contain it. The craft crashed back down to Earth. Emerging from the ruins of the spaceship, they discovered the radiation had mutated their bodies and had given them remarkable new abilities. Reed gained the ability to stretch his body and limbs, Johnny was able to fly and become engulfed in flames he could control, and Sue was able to bend light around her body and become invisible. Ben gained incredible strength and durability, but his body was tragically transformed. He now had a muscular orange, rock-like hide.; All four decided to use their powers to better humanity and founded the Fantastic Four. Individually they call themselves Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch, and the Thing. They are not superheroes in the traditional sense, but rather explorers, facing whatever challenges that may arise as a family. The profits from Richards' patents and royalties fund the team's activities.; ===The Early Years===; Operating from Central City, California, the first menace the Fantastic Four were called upon to face was the Mole Man and his ever changing cadre of monsters and sub-human races from below the Earth. They were soon thrown into conflict with the shape-shifting Skrulls, the first of many alien menaces they would battle in their long careers.; The team moved to the Baxter Building, their New York headquarters, and established themselves as mainstream superheroes. Falling out with his teammates after a battle with the Miracle Man, Johnny left the group and encountered the World War II hero Namor, the Sub-Mariner living as an amnesiac in a flop house. Recognizing Namor from comic books, Johnny dropped him into the sea, hoping to restore his memory. The plan worked, but after Namor found Atlantis in ruins, he declared war on humanity. Johnny rejoined the Fantastic Four and together they drove Namor back into the sea. He remained their rival for awhile, vying for the affection of Sue Storm.; Reed's former college rival Victor von Doom returned as Doctor Doom. Doom's attempts at world domination forced the Fantastic Four to face him again and again, making him their deadliest and most persistent adversary.; During a trip to the Blue Area of the Moon, the Fantastic Four battled the Red Ghost and the Super-Apes and made first contact with a Watcher, called Uatu. With the aid of Ant-Man, they battled Doctor Doom in Sub-Atomica. During a trip to ancient Egypt's past, they encountered the Pharaoh Rama-Tut, a time-traveler who would become the man known as Kang the Conqueror. When the Sub-Mariner was reunited with his people, the Atlanteans, the Fantastic Four were caught in the middle of an Atlantean attempt to invade the surface world. Other threats from this period included Kurrgo, the Puppet Master, the Impossible Man, the Hulk, the Mad Thinker, the Super-Skrull, and the Molecule Man. Spider-Man made a bid to join the team, but was denied.; They teamed up with Nick Fury to defeat the Hate-Monger, and it was during this time that the Invisible Girl discovered her force-field powers, right before another confrontation with the Mole Man. The Fantastic Four also returned a lost alien child which was causing mayhem in New York to its parents, and then they teamed up with the Avengers for the first time when the Hulk attacked New York in his most destructive rampage to that date. They also met another active super team of the era, the X-Men, for the first time when the schemes of the Puppet Master and the Mad Thinker pitted them against each other.; Three of the Human Torch's enemies, the Wizard, Sandman, and the Trapster, joined forces and recruited an amnesiac Medusa to form an evil, mirror counterpart to the Fantastic Four. They called themselves Frightful Four and battled the Fantastic Four on several occasions.; Doctor Doom used his Emotion Charger machine to mind control many villains to attack the team on Reed and Sue's wedding day, but with the aid of a device given to him by the Watcher, Reed ended the threat. Sue and Reed finally married. The wedding was attended by the Avengers and most of the world's heroes.; ===New Friends and Enemies===; The Fantastic Four met Medusa's family, the royal family of the hidden race known as the Inhumans. Johnny instantly fell in love with Medusa's sister, Crystal. The Inhumans and their king, Black Bolt, were originally distrustful of the Fantastic Four. Tragedy struck when the Inhumans' ancestral home Attilan was separated from the outside world by a Negative Zone barrier created by Black Bolt's mad brother Maximus. The Inhumans were trapped inside, and Johnny and Crystal were separated.; Despite the Watcher's efforts to hide Earth, Galactus came to Earth determined to consume the energy-rich planet. His herald, the Silver Surfer, rebelled. Reed Richards thwarted Galactus by threatening to use an alien device called the Ultimate Nullifier on him, a weapon that could lay waste to the universe and kill even Galactus. Galactus was forced to vow to spare Earth in exchange for the Nullifier's return, and he punished the Surfer for his betrayal by erecting an undetectable energy barrier that prevented the Surfer from leaving Earth.; The Fantastic Four were invited to visit the African nation Wakanda by its king, the Black Panther. They were attacked by the Black Panther, who easily bested them all in individual combat, but was defeated when they teamed up as a group. With the battle over, the Black Panther revealed that it was all a test of their abilities. They helped the Black Panther drive Ulysses Klaw out of Wakanda. Thwarted, Klaw leaped into his massive sonic converter device hoping to gain superhuman powers to combat his foes. His gamble was successful and Klaw was transformed into a creature whose body was composed of "living sound". In his new form, Klaw battled the Fantastic Four and was pummeled into unconsciousness by Mister Fantastic wearing Vibranium knuckle guards and taken to prison.; The original Human Torch's body was discovered by the Mad Thinker. Using his knowledge of androids, the Thinker restored most of the Torch's original synthetic tissue and nervous system. The Thinker partially restored the android's memories but coerced the Torch into battling the Fantastic Four. On realizing the implications of what the Thinker wanted him to do, the Torch sacrificed his artificial life to save the Fantastic Four from a sneak attack by the Thinker's computer Quasimodo. The Thinker fled, and the Fantastic Four left the Torch's body in the Thinker's laboratory in Nevada.; The Silver Surfer was befriended and betrayed by Doctor Doom, who imprisoned him and stole the Surfer's power for himself. Doom attacked and defeated the Fantastic Four and held the world in terror, but Doom lost his new might when Reed tricked him into leaving Earth's atmosphere. Doom collided with Galactus' barrier, and the Surfer's powers were restored. Meanwhile, the Inhumans escaped their prison thanks to Black Bolt's scream, however Attilan was left in shambles. The Inhuman Royal family agreed it was time to enter the world of the humans.; Reed found himself trapped in the Negative Zone after an attack by the Sandman. At that moment, Crystal and Johnny were reunited, and Crystal enlisted the Inhuman Triton to rescue Reed. Blastaar, who once ruled Baluur in the Negative Zone, followed them through a portal. He teamed up with Sandman, but the Fantastic Four and Crystal managed to defeat them and sent Blastaar back to his own dimension.; While trying to take a vacation on a tropical island, the Fantastic Four encountered the Kree Sentry 459, who had been reactivated by an archaeologist. During the fight, Johnny's flame struck the island's energy supply, causing it to explode. The FF and the archaeologist escaped in time, seemingly leaving the Sentry to be destroyed.; A difficult pregnancy for Sue followed, during which Crystal took her place on the team. At the last moment, to save the unborn child, the Fantastic Four had to visit the Negative Zone and borrow the Cosmic Control Rod of Annihilus. Sue's child, Franklin, named after her father, manifested strong and unusual powers almost immediately. When Annihilus kidnapped Franklin to tap those powers, they increased exponentially, and Reed felt he had no choice but to inhibit Franklin's mental activity. Outraged, Sue left Mr. Fantastic and took Franklin with her. During Sue Storm's hiatus, the Inhuman Medusa took her place. The old bonds, though, drew Susan back to the team. When Ben Grimm was transformed into his human self and lost his powers after a battle with the Hulk, he was briefly replaced with Luke Cage. He returned to the team using an exoskeleton constructed by Reed that emulated his old powers, but was transformed into his rock form again during a battle with Galactus.; ===Change===; Most of the team, apart from Sue, were transported to the distant "Battleworld" by the Beyonder for the first of the so-called "Secret Wars." On that planet Ben Grimm found himself able to change to human form and back. Concealing his discovery of Grimm's mental block for fear of hurting his feelings, Richards claimed that the nature of the planet itself was somehow responsible for Grimm's ability to transform back and forth. Once the "Secret War" was over, Grimm remained on the planet for months. The Thing asked She-Hulk to take his place in the Fantastic Four.; During an extended trip to the Negative Zone, a sort of second honeymoon, Sue conceived another child. This unborn daughter began to give off radiation. Despite the efforts of Mr. Fantastic and several other experts, the girl was apparently stillborn.; Psycho-Man took advantage of Sue's fragile self-control at this point and amplified her negative emotions. She became Malice, with all of the Invisible Girl's powers but none of her restraint and attacked the Fantastic Four. Mr. Fantastic helped her throw off Psycho-Man's influence, but she lost control again when the Fantastic Four confronted Psycho-Man; she turned his own Control Box on him, which shorted out his nervous system and nearly killed him. This episode would have lasting effects: the Invisible Girl changed her name to Invisible Woman; she discovered how to use Force Objects, and in the long term, she lost a measure of self-confidence, knowing that Malice still lurked inside her.; Johnny found himself drawn to Alicia Masters, longtime girlfriend of the absent Thing. Johnny and Alicia's romance helped estrange the Thing from the Fantastic Four for a lengthy period.; The Thing rejoined the Fantastic Four and She-Hulk returned to the Avengers. When Reed and Sue retired from active Fantastic Four duty to focus on raising their son, they left Ben in charge. He recruited Crystal, who was separated from Quicksilver at the time, and Ms. Marvel (Sharon Ventura) to replace them. Ben served capably as team leader and started a romance with Sharon that deepened after new cosmic radiation exposure further mutated them both, turning Sharon into a sort of "She-Thing" and Ben into an even stronger, more hideous spiky-hided Thing. Their romance continued through several more changes of form (with Ben eventually settling back into his classic Thing form), even after Reed and Sue rejoined the group; but they were estranged after Sharon accepted Doctor Doom's aid in regaining human form.; Johnny's old feelings for Crystal slowly returned, but his love for Alicia enabled him to resist temptation, and Crystal eventually left the team. Eventually Johnny married Alicia. Despite their long and intimate relationship, Johnny was horrified to discover that the Alicia he loved and married was not the true Alicia Masters, but a Skrull impostor named Lyja. Originally sent to infiltrate and destroy the Fantastic Four, Lyja truly fell in love with Johnny, and joined the Fantastic Four in confronting Paibok, the Skrull who had kidnapped the real Alicia. Lyja seemingly sacrificed her life to protect Johnny, but her former lover Paibok nursed her back to health.; Trying to move on from yet another failed relationship, Johnny enrolled at Empire State University; but Devos, Paibok and even Lyja attacked Johnny at ESU, forcing his powers to go nova, burning down a large section of the campus. Johnny briefly became a fugitive until Reed agreed to sell some of his patents to pay for the damages. Lyja returned to Johnny's life again, tricking him into believing she was carrying his baby. When this proved a lie as well, Johnny left her again.; ===Psi-Lord===; Claiming that Franklin's presence in this timeline would lead to destruction, Reed Richards' father Nathaniel abducted the child into the future. Nathaniel raised Franklin for years in the future, training him to be a warrior and to master his superhuman powers. The adolescent Franklin journeyed back in time, arriving in the Fantastic Four's headquarters mere moments after Nathaniel had abducted him as a child. The teenage Franklin called himself Psi-Lord, and wielded vast psionic powers, although they remained far short of his full potential.; When Reed and Doom seemingly died as a result of their conflict with the alien Hunger, they were actually spirited away by the space-time-warping Hyperstorm, mad son of an alternate-future Franklin Richards. Hyperstorm kept Doom as a tortured captive and trapped Reed in the distant past for months, during which time the world believed both Reed and Doom to be dead. In Reed's absence, Sue took over leadership of the Fantastic Four and served capably in the role, recruiting Ant-Man (Scott Lang) as the team's new scientist. However, she refused to believe Reed was truly dead, and she rebuffed romantic advances from Namor.; During this period, Franklin founded the Fantastic Force, a new super-hero team to carry on his father's work of protecting humanity. Finally, after Reed was eventually rescued, Psi-Lord somehow was removed from the Fantastic Four's time and was replaced by the child Franklin, as he had been at the time that Nathaniel had abducted him. Nathaniel claimed that Hyperstorm must have arranged the substitution, and that the Psi-Lord version of Franklin no longer existed in the Fantastic Four's timeline.; ===Onslaught===; When Franklin Richards was kidnapped by Onslaught, the Fantastic Four joined the Avengers and the X-Men to battle Onslaught in Central Park. An enraged Hulk was able to crack open Onslaught's shell. However, Onslaught remained as pure psionic energy, planning to spread across the planet. Thor plunged into Onslaught, trying to contain him. The Fantastic Four, the majority of Avengers, and even Doctor Doom followed. Thanks to this sacrifice, the X-Men finally managed to destroy Onslaught. The Fantastic Four, Doom, and the Avengers were believed dead, but were instead saved by Franklin, who created a pocket dimension called Counter-Earth to keep them safe. Back on Earth-616, the Thunderbolts moved into the Fantastic Four's headquarters at Four Freedoms Plaza.; ===Heroes Return===; After several months away, the missing heroes returned from Counter-Earth and were reunited with Franklin. They set up their new headquarters at Pier Four.; They met Valeria von Doom, visitor from the future, who claimed to be Sue's daughter by Doctor Doom. She proved to be a key to the defeat of Abraxas, an entity related to Galactus. Reed banished Abraxas by using the Ultimate Nullifier, which had an unintended consequence: it returned Valeria to Susan's womb in the present. Everyone learned then, with some dismay, that Franklin had saved his unborn sister by sending her into the future, when technology was available to help her survive the pregnancy. With the help of Doctor Doom, the child was delivered safely. As a condition of his service, Doom named the girl after Valeria, the love of his life.; Later, Doom exploited his special bond with the young Valeria to employ her as a mystical familiar, using sorcery to mount one of his most ruthless and terrifying attacks on the Fantastic Four ever. In the end, Doom was taken by his own demonic benefactors, but not before he hideously disfigured Reed's face as a petty parting gesture. Physically and emotionally scarred, Reed led the Fantastic Four into Doom's now-leaderless Latveria, where he worked obsessively to dismantle Doom's regime, neutralize his arsenal, erase Doom's legacy and create a better state, becoming increasingly tyrannical himself in the process and ignoring threats of international criminal charges from the United Nations. At the same time, unknown even to his teammates, Reed was secretly plotting to retrieve Doom from Hell and place him in a specially prepared other-dimensional prison from which he could never escape; but this transfer was unwittingly interrupted by the rest of the Fantastic Four, allowing Doom to escape long enough to kill the Thing.; Devastated, the remaining Fantastic Four returned to the United States of America, where their standing with the authorities and their reputation with the general public had taken a terrible beating due to the Latverian controversy. The Fantastic Four broke up, Reed and Sue split up, and Reed was even forced to sign over most of his patents to the government as part of a deal to escape prosecution. However, Reed was certain that Ben could be resurrected, and he convinced Sue and Johnny to join him in this quest, which ultimately led them to the gates of Heaven itself using a modified model of Doom's old afterlife machine. Persuaded it was not yet his time, Ben agreed to return to the land of the living with his friends-and the Creators allowed it, even healing Reed's facial scars as a parting gift. With the Fantastic Four back together, Reed led them in rebuilding their reputations and their finances.; ===Civil War===; The super-human civil war split the team once again. Johnny was beat into a brief coma during a visit to a nightclub, sparked by anger over the Stamford disaster. Mr. Fantastic supported the Superhuman Registration Act, while Sue and Johnny joined the resistance. The Thing announced that while he thought the registration was wrong, he was also not going to fight the government and left the country for France.; During the final battle, however, Mr. Fantastic shielded Sue from an attack by the Taskmaster and was severely wounded. In the aftermath of the war, Sue and Johnny were granted amnesty. Sue and Reed took a leave from the team to work on their marriage, while the recently married Black Panther and Storm filled in for them.; ===Secret Invasion===; Reed and Sue returned to the Fantastic Four in time for the Skrull invasion. While Sue was on a talking tour in Vancouver, Canada, a Skrull attacked her in her apartment and quickly neutralized her. Meanwhile, Reed and Hank Pym were called in by Tony Stark to study the body of the Skrull Elektra to find out how they became undetectable. When Reed found out, Hank turned into a Skrull and blasted him into goo. While this was happening, the Skrull impersonating Sue walked into the Baxter Building and opened the portal into the Negative Zone, causing it to consume the Baxter Building, with Johnny, Ben, and the two Richards children inside. The Skrull revealed herself to be Johnny's ex-girlfriend, Lyja the Laserfist, who had been trying to keep them out of harm's way.; After dueling with Lyja and learning of the invasion on Earth, Ben, Johnny, Franklin and Val, with the assistance of Lyja, turned to the prison in the Negative Zone to gain the aid of someone to rebuild the portal back to Earth. They sought a man known as the Tinkerer who refused to help, stating that he was captured, despite being retired, while taking his grandchildren out for ice cream and was not given a fair trial. Franklin pleaded with the man, stating that Dr. Reid, the boy's father, would not support the Tinkerer's arrest had he been aware, begging for his aid. Tinkerer, most likely reminded of his grandchildren, agreed to assist. After hours of waiting, the Tinkerer repaired the technology. Lyja chose to stay behind while the remaining Fantastic Four, the children and the Tinkerer returned to a battle-torn New York City.; ===Dark Reign===; Reed created a device called The Bridge to explore alternate realities. Meanwhile, Johnny, Sue, and Ben fought off the agents of H.A.M.M.E.R. why?Reed's machine sent Johnny, Ben, and Sue to a different reality where a super hero Civil War was happening sometime in the Hyborian Age. Reed continued to study parallel worlds where the Civil War ended differently to find the reason his reality had become the way it was while Ben, Sue, and Johnny traveled throughout collapsed space-time. Reed determined that in all the realities that the Registration was successful, he had acted alone without any input from anyone else.; In the Baxter Building on Earth-616, Franklin and Val prepared to fend off the agents of H.A.M.M.E.R. When Red shut down the Bridge and the others returned, they went outside to find Norman Osborn chasing their children with a gun. Norman was trapped in the Baxter Building with a very upset Susan Richards. She put up a force field that locked everyone else out and him in. He pulled a gun and was about to shoot Reed when Franklin shot him first with a toy gun. They ultimately let Norman go, and Sue told Reed to destroy The Bridge. He did so, but then secretly put it back together, and met beings from another reality who told him how he could fix things. Johnny and Ben wondered how Franklin could have actually shot Norman with a toy gun and thought his powers may have returned.; Following the Siege of Asgard, Ben was asked by Luke Cage to become a member of the New Avengers. Cage assured Ben that he could maintain joint membership with both teams.; ===Three===; While Reed and Sue were gone from the Baxter building of their own important missions a group known as the Cult of the Negative Zone successfully made their way into the building and breached the portal to the Negative Zone. Once inside the cult had managed to unleash what seemed to be an endless army of Annihilus Insectoid Soldiers upon Johnny, the currently powerless Ben, and the kids of the Future Foundation. Franklin revealed that he had his powers back by destroying the army; and the group pushed into the Negative zone where the only way to hold the army off from getting through the door was to lock the door from their side and randomize the code so no one could get in or out. Ben prepared to make the sacrifice, but Johnny threw him through the portal as he regained his powers. The last image of Johnny was him being covered by the Army.; ===Return===; Johnny was revived by Annihilus three times while he participated in the latter's "gladiator competition". When Annihilus was planning a new Annihilation Wave to enter Earth, Johnny and the Light Brigade rebelled and took Annihilus prisoner, while the Human Torch, using the Cosmic Control Rod became the new ruler of the Negative Zone. After helping the Future Foundation to save Earth from a Kree invasion and the arrival of the Mad Celestials, the Fantastic Four reformed.; ===Voyagers===; After finding out that during one of their explorations he developed a sickness which caused the cells of his body to start degenerating, Reed decided to disguise a travel through time and space to find a cure as a family excursion.; They discovered their sickness had been caused by an overload of their powers, as the abilities of an alternate reality version of themselves had them stripped from them when trying to stop Doctor Doom, who had conquered their Earth. After helping their depowered counterparts from that alternate universe defeat Doom the Annihilating Conqueror, the Fantastic Four re-stabilized their powers and returned home.; ===The Fall of the Fantastic Four===; After a portal to the Counter-Earth was somehow opened, an invasion of monsters in New York resulted not only in the Human Torch losing his powers, but also the Fantastic Four being evicted from the Baxter Building, and the children of the Future Foundation being taken into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody.; Soon after finding out years ago Johnny had ruined an opportunity for becoming normal, The Thing was arrested after being found next to the corpse of the Puppet Master. Additionally, Sue started becoming more violent, Johnny lost track on his life, and Reed started becoming erratic. After concluding that somebody was behind their misfortune, the Fantastic Four decided to go to the bottom of it, and find Reed, who had recently disappeared, actually having being kidnapped by the man pulling the strings, the villain known as the Quiet Man.; The Fantastic Four were reunited when Johnny was brought to his senses, he and Sue helped free The Thing from the Power House, and Reed escaped from the Quiet Man. While the Quiet Man unleashed an invasion of creatures from the Counter-Earth, the FF enlisted the help of the Sleepwalker in order to find the source of the monstrosities that came from it by exploring Franklin's subconsciousness, who was revealed to be the Psycho-Man.; Back in his headquarters, the Quiet Man tried to activate the code that would shut off the portals from the Counter-Earth and render the invading forces inert, to make himself look like the hero, however, the Psycho-Man had betrayed him and created a defense wall so he could then control both the Counter-Earth and the Earth with his monstrous army. Mister Fantastic and Valeria came with a solution to finally shut down the creatures and save the world, meanwhile, as he was helping his allies escape from the Counter-Earth, Johnny recovered his powers due to the resulting radiation caused by the closing of one of the portals.; ===Secret Wars===; In light of the imminent destruction of the Multiverse due to the phenomena known as incursions, the Fantastic Four and the Future Foundation began working on vessels capable of surviving the death of everything. When the final incursion took place between Earth-616 and Earth-1610, Mister Fantastic gathered every person he could, put them in the life raft, and deployed its measures. When the vessel approached the central point of the incursion, it suffered a hull breach that led to the death of the Fantastic Four and the Future Foundation, leaving Mister Fantastic the sole member of the Fantastic Four.; When Reed acquired omnipotent power from Doctor Doom, he brought his family back to life and set out to restore the entire Multiverse. Reed realized that Victor would eternally resent him and decided to alter his memories to make him believe he was dead, hoping Victor would walk a righteous path if he no longer pursued ultimate power and believed his greatest rival to be gone. Reed also altered the memories of the Human Torch and The Thing, leaving them both behind on the restored Earth-616 to keep Victor in check. Since Ben and Johnny believed the rest of their family to be dead, the Fantastic Four were disbanded. Ben joined the Guardians of the Galaxy and Johnny Storm acted as both ambassador to the Inhumans and a member of the Avengers Unity Squad.; A makeshift Fantastic Four was formed when The Thing and the Human Torch joined with Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur to stop the Super-Skrull from allowing Omnipotentis to enter the Prime Marvel Universe. After the threat passed, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur left the team. After discovering a device called the Multisect, The Thing convinced the Human Torch to go explore the Multiverse. Even though Ben didn't believe the rest of their family was alive, he intended to help Johnny cope with their loss, and claimed that the Multisect would take them to their family. Ultimately, Ben and Johnny didn't reunite with the Future Foundation, and returned to their universe still believing they were gone.; ===The Fate of the Four===; Years into the Future Foundation's multiversal adventures, Franklin became depleted of his ability to create entirely new realities. At this moment the team was confronted by an abstract entity called the Griever at the End of All Things who repudiated their mission of creating new universes. She caused the collapse of the hundreds of universes charted by the Future Foundation, forcing the team to make a final stand. The Fantastic Four were reunited when Mister Fantastic tricked the Griever into giving them the chance to summon the remaining members of the Fantastic Four for backup. In addition to teleporting Ben and Johnny, Reed also brought every super hero who had been part of the team in order to defeat the new foe. With his allies, Reed destroyed the Griever's teleporters, forcing her to retreat or risk being stranded in the reality where they were fighting. While the Future Foundation continued to explore the Multiverse to restore the Molecule Man, who had been slain by the Griever, the core Fantastic Four returned with Valeria and Franklin to Earth, where only months had passed since the Foundation's years-long journey. Finding the Baxter Building inhabited by a new super hero team called the Fantastix, the Fantastic Four took up residence in an apartment complex on Yancy Street that Ben owned, 4 Yancy Street.; After becoming filled with the desire to resume the team's original failed flight that had given them powers, Reed built a Marvel-2, which he used to take the rest of the Fantastic Four to their original destination, the planet Spyre. They faced a group of superpowered protectors named the Unparalleled, who had been imbued with cosmic radiation to face the Fantastic Four. Spyricans had been aware of the team's initial failed attempt to reach their planet and had prepared for a second try. The Fantastic Four initially became at odds with the patriarch of Spyre, the Overseer, after discovering that he had been responsible for the intensity of the cosmic ray storm that gave them powers during their first flight due to an attempt to scuttle their mission. After making peace with the Spyricans, the Fantastic Four returned to Earth accompanied by Unparalleled member Sky.; ===Empyre===; After running out of fuel while travelling through space, the Fantastic Four went to the Casino Cosmico dimension to get enough money for gas. However, after Ben and Johnny saw that the casino was forcing a Kree boy, Jo-Venn, and a Skrull girl, N'Kalla, to fight to the death for the spectators' amusement, they tried to rescue the two children by entering the arena. Meanwhile, Reed faced the Profiteer to stop this carnage and also send his wife, Sue, to help their kids, Valeria and Franklin, at the casino games. After Reed destroyed the Profiteer's panel control, which allowed Ben and Johnny to save the alien kids, Valeria and Franklin, having won the entire casino, made a deal with the Profiteer to let them go with the necessary things to go back home in exchange for the casino. However, after arriving to their solar system, came across the armadas of the Alliance approaching Earth.; After sending the children to Earth Sue turned their ship invisible and sneaked inside the throneship. Upon entering however, Super-Skrull was able to detect them blowing their cover. The Fantastic Four were shocked to find Earth hero Hulkling as the leader of united Kree/Skrull empire. They tried to solve the issue by diplomacy, but the Avengers soon attacked the Alliance's armada and overloaded their computer system allowing the Cotati to attack the aliens and the Fantastic Four, much to the dismay of the Avengers. After Captain Marvel combined her powers with Hulkling's Excelsior to remove the Cotati infection, the Fantastic Four split up in order to cover more ground as the Cotati's Empyre began invading Earth.; Reed Richards assisted Tony Stark in planning their next move in Avengers Mountain, Invisible Woman and Thing joined "She-Hulk" and Mantis in pursuing Quoi, while Human Torch remained behind at the Alliance's mothership. The situation then began escalating, R'Klll, posing as her grandson Hulkling, ordered the launching of the Pyre, and Sequoia finally arrived at the Vibranium Mound where he would become a god. Human Torch, Captain Marvel, Wiccan and Hulkling tried to stop R'Klll, while Invisible Woman and Mantis tried to fight off the Cotati who had been possessing She-Hulk's corpse and was beating the Thing to death. After R'Klll was defeated, Human Torch helped in deactivating the Pyre, and meanwhile Invisible Woman and Thing defeated the Cotati Hulk. Then Mister Fantastic in his new Iron Man Armor battled Quoi and his father, Swordsman, while also being joined by the rest of the heroes.; Following the defeat of the Cotati before sending them to a new planet, Mister Fantastic tried to interrogate Quoi about the origin of their weaponry, but it was all in vain. They then enlisted the help of the Profiteer about the Cotati's weapons, but still found no information. After Hulkling staved the Profiteer out when she tried to reclaim Jo-Venn and N'Kalla, he gave the custody of the alien children to the Thing and his wife Alicia.; ===Reckoning War===; As the Reckoning began instigating numerous alien wars across the universe, they destroyed the entirety of the Moon in order to prevent the resurrected Uatu from alarming his fellow Watchers of the threat. The Fantastic Four were among the numerous heroes saving civilians from the moon debris falling through the atmosphere while fighting the Badoon invasion of Earth. The Fantastic Four then met Nick Fury and wanting to know what was going on Richards accessed Uatu's Cyclopedia Universum, but this caused his emotions and personality to deteriorate into a cold and calculating individual. Reed proceeded to broadcast a message to all of Earth's heroes to help in fighting the invasion before contacting the Silver Surfer who informed Richards that the Reckoning just like they did with Cotati gave the Watchers' technology to small alien groups which allowed them to conquer other alien worlds. The Four was split as the Human Torch went to help the Spyricans in fighting against the Annihilation Wave and the Invisible Woman disappeared, leaving Richards to tell everyone that they needed to assist the Watchers in this cosmic-scale war.; Reed, alongside the Thing, She-Hulk and Jack of Hearts went to the Shi'ar Empire to protect the M'kraan Crystal from the Morani, but they were too late as the Reckoning's leaders Rapture and Reject were successful in taking down the Imperial Guard. Having accessed the Cyclopedia Universum Reed found out that the Thing might die at the hands of Rapture. The Reckoning duo were able to mortally injure Thing and steal the Crystal for their plan. As the Badoon attacked the Baxter Building, Richards informed Valeria to execute Protocol: Zero and after healing the Thing with the help of Jack he informed Ben that the kids had self-destructed the Building to stall the Reckoning. This enraged the Thing who beat Richards nearly to death before the latter revealed that it was a lie as their families were still alive due to the self-destruct being a decoy. He explained to the Thing that he had lied because Ben was unfocused during the fight. However, they then fell into Wrath's trap, causing Reed, Ben, She-Hulk and Jack to be left stranded in the Barrens. Meanwhile, the Human Torch and Unparalleled after defeating the Annihilation Wave went to assist the Kree-Skrull Alliance in their fight against the Mekkans.; Valeria and Franklin as part of the Protocol sabotaged the Forever Gate to deny the Reckoning access to it. Ruin of the Reckoning revealed to them that their plan wasn't to destroy the cosmos but to take over the three Nexuses of Reality and he alongside the Badoon departed Earth, prompting the kids to follow them. The Human Torch, meanwhile, gathered all of the heroes across the cosmos to help in fighting the Reckoning. As Richards and the Thing were trapped in the Barrens, the Invisible Woman, having secretly followed Fury to the Watchers' base planet, helped him and Uatu by stunning Emnu. Having spied on Ikor she learned about the Apex of All Reality which was, as Uatu explained, a gateway that the Watchers used to look to different alternate realities, and realized that the Reckoning's objective was to claim the Apex.; Uatu learned from Emnu that the Watcher had created the Ultimate Nullifier to destroy the Prosilicans to end the first war, leading to the Watchers' rule of noninterference. Valeria used the Forever Gate to trap Ruin and his forces within the Thought Space where Franklin was able to regain his lost powers and managed to defeat the aliens. However, in the Barrens Reed was slowly dying due to containing the Watcher's knowledge in his brain, deducing that he had no more than ten hours to live. Despite this, he became even more intelligent and with the help of Jack rebuild the Forever Gate in order to leave the place. Ben, Reed and She-Hulk proceeded to go through the portal, while Jack remained behind. The three were reunited with Sue, Fury, Uatu and the Silver Surfer just as the Reckoning began poisoning the Watchers' planet. Reed confessed to everyone present that he was dying. Uatu attempted to reveal his fellow Watchers Emnu's involvement with the Prosilicans' demise, while Fury protected him. Doom and the Cormorant also arrived to fight the Reckoning. Although the Cormorant killed Reject, Rapture disarmed Doom and Wrath reprogrammed Cormorant's armor to serve them instead. Rapture was about to kill Doom, but was interrupted by the Fantastic Four. Wrath attempted to send Rapture to retrieve the Nullifier as he went to the Apex, but she was confronted by the Thing again, this time her weapons taken away by Sue. As they went after Wrath, the resurrected Galactus began making his way to the planet to destroy it, but was being stalled by Johnny and his cosmic allies. Wrath managed to temporarily defeat the heroes and quickly dashed to the Apex. Fortunately, as Reed was about to succumb the Thing defeated Rapture and gave him the Nullifier. Reed proceeded to use the Ultimate Nullifier to erase Wrath from reality moments from reaching the Apex, sacrificing himself in the process.; While the Watchers were evacuated from their planet to Ego, Uatu and Fury fell into the Apex, and Reed was cured of his affliction thanks to the Nullifier. Although Wrath was gone, the M'kraan Crystal was destabilized and began self-destruction, forcing Johnny and the Surfer to carry it to Galactus, earning applause them from some of the Cosmic Entities. Sue used her powers to get everyone else off the planet, while Uatu emerged from the destruction as the One and Only Watcher, having been imbued with the Apex's powers. In order to rectify the damage done by the Watchers he restored the Prosilicans' world and the moon before sending everyone home. Johnny decided to remain with the Unparalleled to find a cure to his ailment caused by Doom, Ben went to see his family, and Reed and Sue went through the Forever Gate to check on their children. After getting Valeria and Franklin from the Thought Space and reuniting with Ben and his family, Reed and his own family deactivated the Forever Gate as it was too dangerous to be left open.; ===Fantastic Four No More===; One day, aliens from the Negative Zone emerged into Earth and fought the Fantastic Four. As the enemies were gaining ground, Reed decided to teleport all of the Baxter Building one year into the future, causing the aliens to be stranded in space due to Earth's orbit with the solar system moving through space while the building would remain on Earth. However, this left a massive smoldering crater that had also made contact with nearby buildings, and everyone who had been inside the buildings, which included Franklin, Valeria, Jo-Venn, N'Kalla and other loved ones of numerous people along with the employees of small businesses, would be gone for one year. Following this, the Fantastic Four became hated and was disbanded, in part due to Ben and Alicia's anger at Reed's apparent apathy towards the incident,. Ben and Alicia, Johnny, and Sue and Reed briefly went to live their separate lives.; The team's members eventually reunited when fighting a parasitic alien which forced them to relive the memories of the experience. As they fought its influence, the team was able to see that Reed, just like them, was also emotionally destroyed over his decision and in truth he deeply regretted it, but Reed's vocal inflections tended to be even and controlled and was, as such, misinterpreted as ambivalence. Once the alien was defeated, the team reconciled with each other and the Fantastic Four was reformed. With the Four reformed, they moved to the old farmhouse of the Thing's aunt Petunia in Benson, Arizona, renaming it the Fantastic Farmhouse.; Following a year of adventures together, the Fantastic Four prepared for the return of the Baxter Building and their kids, only to be met with a construction site at its place. They discovered that it had been the plan of an intelligent predictive app known as Metamind which was preventing its return and so the Four attempted to have it shut down before destroying its servers to prevent it from interfering with the building's return. To their horror, they saw that Metamind was still alive and had taken control of people that had installed it on their phones. It held them all as hostages and forced the Fantastic Four to leave the building's area else there would be consequences. Left with no other choice, Mr. Fantastic in the ensuing days created an app similar to Metamind, but not sapient, in order for people to move on from Metamind. Richards knew that Metamind wasn't evil and offered to delete his app to let it live and give back the area. However, as Metamind was about to accept, it was completely blocked by its creator, causing it to diminish. Richards attempted to save it, but Metamind assured him that it was ok, and as it perished it released the Baxter Building and the surrounding area from the pocket dimension it had trapped in, allowing the Fantastic Four's children and all the other people to finally be reunited with their families.; ===One World Under Doom===; Enabled by the Darkforce Dimension dispersing itself over the Earth and occluding the Sun, a mass of vampires invade the streets of New York City and fields of Arizona, leaving the Fantastic Four to defend themselves and citizens against the assault. An unknown savior clears the skies, who later reveals himself on New York City's screens to be none other than Victor von Doom, now the new Sorcerer Supreme.

+Trivia: Bryan Hitch designed the costumes for the characters, thus explaining their aesthetic resemblance to the costumes worn by the Ultimates. Contrary to popular belief, Hitch was only tasked as concept artist and was never slated to draw the book when it debuted.; Willie Lumpkin, the Richards' mailman in the 616 Universe, is reinvented in the Ultimate Universe as Lieutenant Lumpkin, head of security for the Baxter Building.; Marvel Zombies (which is a spin-off series from Crossover) also tie-in to the story arc Frightful, featuring the return of Ultimate Doctor Doom.; The X-Men's Kitty Pryde and Jean Grey served as interns under Sue Storm during an archaeological dig in Chile.; There are two references to past issues of both Ultimate Fantastic Four and the original Fantastic Four comic book series on the cover art for issue number five. It shows Sue Storm becoming invisible in order to avoid the paparazzi, with a wide smile and a shrug. In front of the guard rail, six tabloid newspapers flutter to the street. One of those tabloids is The Daily Bugle, which is commonly associated with the Spider-Man universe. The headline reads, "FANTASTIC FOUR FRENZY", and its supposed "photograph" is a quick sketch version of Ultimate Fantastic Four #1's cover art. Also, the newspaper fluttering by Sue's right shoulder is called the 'Tattler', and its headline, which is partially obscured by the semi-solid shoulder, reads "IS SUE EXPECTING?". This is an obvious reference to Reed's and Sue's first child in the original Fantastic Four universe, young Franklin Richards.; The Ultimate Marvel version of the Fantastic Four got their powers from a failed teleporter accident that also affected Doctor Doom instead of a cosmic rays on their rocket.
+History:
+Over a decade ago, the U.S. government, under the auspices of the Directory of Mainland Technology Development, began gathering international child prodigies at a Manhattan laboratory facility in the Baxter Building, giving them the best resources and teachers the project could afford. Headed by scientist Franklin Storm and the U.S. military's General Ross, the project discovered the N-Zone, an other-dimensional space which paralleled our own. When 11-year-old Reed Richards independently accessed this zone and began sending small toys into it, the project recruited him to join their work. Over the following ten years, Reed Richards, Victor Van Damme, and other students and instructors worked on the project before the government ultimately constructed its N-Zone teleportation gate in the Nevada desert, intending to teleport an apple to a receptor in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.; Unbeknownst to the others, Victor Van Damme altered the device's settings and, upon activation the five people on its steps vanished into interdimensional space and returned with an altered "phase-space condition". Reed Richards returned to the same spot, transformed into a mass of pliable cells. Ben Grimm, Reed's childhood friend, was transported to Mexico City and transformed into the rock-like Thing; Johnny Storm was transported to France, his skin converted to flame-emitting cells; Victor Van Damme was transported to an unrevealed location and acquired a mechanized skin; while Sue Storm was transported into the Nevada desert, acquiring invisibility powers.; Arthur Molekevic, a fired Baxter Building instructor who had covertly observed the experiment and its transformed subjects, sent his artificial Ani-Men after the five. Initially retrieving Susan while the government gathered Reed, Ben, and Johnny at the Baxter Building, Molekevic then sent what seemed to be an enormous monster after them. Defeating it they followed it to Molekevic's underground laboratories and retrieved Susan, inadvertently destroying the underground chambers in the process and apparently burying Molekevic. The government relocated the remaining Baxter Building students to a secondary facility in Oregon, and dedicated the Manhattan facility to the quiet study of the altered four.; When Van Damme attacked the Baxter Building six months later, Reed tracked him to Copenhagen. Refused permission to go to Denmark by the government, the quartet went anyway in Reed's childhood "Fantastic-Car," knowing they needed Victor's knowledge to restore themselves. Battling Van Damme, they were unable to defeat him before the military arrived and were forced by international law to set him free.; The four used a reconstructed N-Zone transporter to pilot a decommissioned U.S. Space Shuttle, heavily modified by Reed Richards and awkwardly christened the "Awesome" by Johnny Storm, to explore the N-Zone itself. The quartet made contact there with a being known as Nihil, who tried to kill them and follow them back to Earth, where both ships crashed in Las Vegas. They were officially "outed" as super-humans on the Sunset Strip while defeating Nihil and his alien crew.; Returning to the Baxter Building, they were briefly attacked by a rejected Baxter thinker named Rhona Burchill who was jealous of Reed's status, and subsequently aided the Ultimates, with Ben and Johnny fighting beside Nick Fury, Carol Danvers, and the Ultimates' Thor and Black Widow against the Free while Reed and Sue went into space with Iron Man to investigate Gah Lak Tus.; The quartet also investigated the mystery of a secret race known as the Inhumans, then a group of Chrono-Bandits across time after they duplicated a time machine which Reed and Sue had co-created. Later, Reed made interdimensional contact with another universe's version of the Fantastic Four, bringing the team into conflict with an alternate reality infected with a zombie-creating virus.; ===Ultimatum===; The Human Torch was arguing with his father, Franklin Storm, shortly before the tidal wave hit New York City, killing him. Johnny, who was in shock over his father's death, was captured by Dormammu, who began channeling the Human Torch's flame to escape and attack New York City. After killing Dr. Strange, Dormammu fought the Invisible Woman and the the Thing, but was eventually defeated and reverted to his human form. Mister Fantastic, upon returning from his battle with Magneto, was reunited with his teammates. He soon realized that Dr. Doom would continue to destroy the world if he wasn't stopped and prompted the Thing to go to Latveria and kill him.; After the funeral of Franklin Storm, Reed Richards' marriage proposal was rejected by Sue, and the Fantastic Four disbanded. The Thing enlisted in S.H.I.E.L.D., the Human Torch opted to live a quiet life in France, the Invisible Woman continued to do research at the Baxter Building, and Mister Fantastic moved back in with his biological family as he pondered what to do next.; ===Aftermath of the Fantastic Four===; Although, the team has officially disbanded, these four individuals continue to have contact. Reed Richards faked his death and was later revealed to be the Ultimate Enemy. When Sue Storm confronted Richards about his duplicity as well as his sinister plans, Reed savagely beat Sue Storm. In retaliation, Johnny Storm later disfigured Reed's face with his flame powers. Sue would later date her former teammate, Ben Grimm.

+Species / origin: Aeronautical engineer Reed Richards inadvertently created the Fantastic Four after deciding to make a test flight on the starship he had been working on. While it would make it possible to travel to other star systems, financiers were losing interest. His girlfriend Susan Storm and her brother Johnny insisted on joining Reed and his friend Ben Grimm, the pilot. While in space, the spaceship encountered a wave of cosmic radiation, causing both the mission to be aborted and the craft to crash. Emerging from the ruins of the spaceship, they discovered the radiation had mutated their bodies. Reed gained the ability to stretch his body and limbs, Johnny was able to fly and become engulfed in flame, and Sue was able to bend light around her body and become invisible. Ben on the other hand gained incredible strength and durability, with the cost of being severely disfigured. All four decided on using their powers to better humanity, and founded the Fantastic Four.
+Reality: Earth-2149
+Base of operations: Baxter Building; previously New York City, now Latveria
+Transportation: Fantasticar MK II
+History:
+Little is detailed about the lives of the Fantastic Four before the zombie plague arrived on Earth-2149, however it can be presumed that it followed almost the same path as the Fantastic Four of Earth-616. The only exception is that their encounters with the Silver Surfer and Galactus never occurred at all like they did on Earth-616, as evidenced by the Marvel Zombies' unfamiliarity with Galactus and Surfer and this Surfer's unfamiliarity with Earth.; The Fantastic Four had been out, presumably doing what they could for the zombie infested city, believing Franklin and Valeria Richards had been secure in a code-locked area of the Baxter Building. Unfortunately, on their return they find She-Hulk, who also had the access codes, has been zombified and killed Sue and Reed's children. Furious, Sue blows She-Hulk's head up with a force field. Just then, they receive a call from Nick Fury, informing them of the gathering resistance movement aboard the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier.; On their way to the Helicarrier in the Fantasticar, they run into Nova and Thor, and together they head to join the resistance. Once there, Fury calls them all together and explains that it seems to be the end of the world, and though they may have had differences in the past, they are all on the same side now.; While a team is dispatched back to the surface, the Fantastic Four and a few of the boffins stay behind to try and work out how exactly to stop this thing. Reed is working in a lab on some zombified remains, he finds the whole thing fascinating, and marvels at the efficiency of the creatures, Sue is enraged that he could be so analytical about the things that killed their offspring.; Later, Sue, Johnny, and the Thing, approach Reed once more. However, Reed is still extolling the virtues of zombification, and explains that as they entered he pricked their skins and infected them without their knowledge. Sue, and the others turn and fall upon a laughing Reed, biting and infecting him in turn.; The newly zombified Fantastic Four find Tony Stark in another lab explaining to Fury that he is working on a dimensional transporter. They attack him, and before he can put on his Iron Man armor he is bitten.; Nick Fury escapes, and puts the Helicarrier in lock-down, a thick bulk-head separating the Fantastic Four from the transporter and Fury. Thing breaks his way through the bulk-head, and inside the air-lock they see Fury, Dr Strange, Storm, Nightcrawler, and Thor, who is smashing the transporter with Mjolnir. But with nowhere to run, the Fantastic Four infect the whole group, then they collect the pieces of the transporter, and start moving it to the Baxter Building.; When Reed has made the teleporter operational, he attempts to con an alternate reality version of himself to open a passageway between their worlds. Completely fooled, the young Reed exits the teleporter into a dilapidated and abandoned Baxter Building, and when he stumbles out into the post-apocalyptic street, zombified Sue and the others appear to 'greet' him.; Reed tells the younger version of himself how the plague began on this world, with purple lightening, and something falling from the sky, and that within 24 hours the planet was consumed. He says that now they have run out of food, and they try to grab the young man, but he manages to get away and flee down the sewers.; Presumably, when young Reed evades Human Torch, the Fantastic Four decide they can get all the food they want by using the teleport, and go back to the Baxter Building. They arrive just as Sue, Ben, and Johnny, turn up to find out what has happened to Reed. As the zombified FF attack, Ultimate Invisible Woman protects the remaining three of the four, with a forcefield, and they manage to lock their zombified counterparts up.; They are moved to a more secure containment area, but Reed tells the younger FF that this is only temporary. According to Reed they are fed twice a day, when live animals are squeezed into the cell.; Later, with the Ultimate Fantastic Four seeking help from Victor van Damme, the zombified FF put their plan in motion. They convince the guards outside that they have created a teleportation device from a pen, the chemicals from ink, and using a hair as a keyboard.; The guards watch as they huddle together, then fade out and disappear. Panicking, the guards open the doors and go into the container, but the zombified FF have gone nowhere, Invisible Woman has done what she does best, and made them all invisible. Then the freed FF slaughter all the guards, and when the Baxter Building is sealed from the 40th floor up, they slaughter everybody in those levels as well.; Though Prof. Storm tries to bargain with them, the FF have access to the labs, and begin to create another type of teleporter, and bring through Thor, and Hulk, to smash through the containment shield. Just then, alarms sound warning the FF of an intrusion, and they go to investigate.; Confusingly finding Doctor Doom coming to save the day, the zombie FF attack. Doom extinguishes Human Torch; snaps off Things arm; and, when Sue tries to pop of field inside Doom's head, she finds nothing but cold steel, so Doom, using magic, necrotizes Sue's body even further. Then Reed steps up and tries to envelope Dr Doom, but he conjures up maggots that begin to eat through his dead flesh.; Finally, the zombified Fantastic Four are dumped through the operational teleport back into the street of their own dimension.; In the Ultimate Universe, the Frightful Four are zombified counterparts of the Fantastic Four from the Marvel Zombies dimension. They possess all the powers of the Fantastic Four, along with many years more of experience, but are in a state of gradual decay, and a hunger for living flesh. They have repeatedly stated their goal is to spread the virus they carry on to the superhumans of the Ultimate universe.; The Four were captured upon their arrival to the Ultimate Universe, and have been kept in a special holding cell designed by Reed Richards to contain the Hulk. They escaped but they were quarantined to the top 40 levels of the Baxter Building. They are currently reconfiguring a portal Ultimate Mister Fantastic was working on to allow their "friends" from the zombie universe into the Ultimate one.; The Ultimates gathered at the foot of the Baxter Building as plans were made to drop the field and attack the zombies, when Doom (in Mister Fantastic's body) returned. Claiming that his first priority was to help Johnny Storm, he cast a spell to remove the creature that was killing him. However he miscast the spell, having partially translated it wrong, and the creature, while being drawn out of Johnny successfully, was not sent back to the Negative Zone.; It remained on Earth, and immediately sought out a powerful host. Most thought it was Thor, but the parasite bypassed the Thunder God completely, possessing Reed (in Doom's body), Reed having followed the FF back to the city. He went in to confront the Frightful Four; the zombies were pleased that they did not need to call their friends and thus share the 'food.' Reed killed the undead Human Torch first, releasing a chemical from his mouth that dissolved him. The undead Thing attacked next, mockingly asking if Doom was a hero on this reality, but Reed used Doom's strength to easily rip off the undead Thing's arm and shatter him with it.; The undead Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman attacked next, but Invisible Woman's powers seemed to have no affect on him, Doom's steel body protecting Reed from her force fields. He used Doom's magic to speed up the rate of the undead Invisible Woman's decay, rotting her to bones and dust rapidly. The zombie Mister Fantastic, panicking and enraged, demanded to know what was going on. Reed responded by using Doom's magic again, summoning hordes of maggots and other bugs and creatures that eat necrotic flesh to devour his undead counterpart from within.; The zombie Fantastic Four's bodies were then dumped back into their own universe, with Doom (now back in his own body due to a sense of honor) following after. As they are never seen again after the fact, it's likely that "Doom"'s aformentioned attacks were fatal.

+Codename: Fantastic Four 2099
+First appearance: Doom 2099 Vol 1 1
+Created by: John Francis Moore; Pat Broderick
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-928
+History:
+In the year 2099, Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch, and the Thing found themselves in new uniforms and transported to a very different Negative Zone than the one they knew. Returning home, they found the world changed and SHIELD soldiers chasing after them as laboratory copies of the original Fantastic Four.; During a fight with a repo-man crew named Total Recall, a church dedicated to the worship of the 20th century’s Thor was destroyed, and the FF escaped with an injured Human Torch to an abandoned S.H.I.E.L.D. hideout. They discovered, through the repo-men, that the corporation Stark-Fujikawa was claiming them as "experimental subjects". They headed to an Alchemax facility to prove their originality. The four encountered the new century's Spider-Man. He helped Reed study the group's DNA. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the 2099 technology, the results were inconclusive, leaving their legitimacy in question.; They then broke into their old headquarters at Four Freedoms Plaza with the help of their friend, Chimera, who came back with them from the Negative Zone. Before they could return to the Negative Zone to find a way home, they were attacked by a man named River Styx, the demon brother of Chimera, as well as a group of S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers. In the course of the battle, the Negative Zone door was damaged, causing a dimensional 'meltdown'. Rampaging beasts called Mindless Ones attacked, until they were destroyed by the 20th century's Doctor Strange. Strange then leapt into the future to warn the denizens of Earth of the approaching end of the world.; Later, a planetoid headed to Earth, causing the polar ice caps to melt. This was caused by the Phalanx, an act which covered most of the Earth in water. The Fantastic Four set up headquarters in their old building to help the Earth’s future inhabitants. The Human Torch headed out to investigate the flooding, but was ambushed and captured by the Atlanteans and their leader, Attuma. The Invisible Woman and the Thing rushed to his rescue, getting themselves captured as well. They found themselves caught in the middle of a fight between Attuma and the rightful ruler of Atlantis, the mutant Whisper, a former guardian of X-Nation. Despite chemical brainwashing, the three heroes helped Whisper take her rightful place on the throne.; Back in the city, Reed and the future Doctor Doom worked with the remaining survivors. While fleeing the city towards the Savage Land, the only place on Earth free from flooding, a fleet of Atlantean ships attacked the remaining humans. The human fleet was saved from destruction by the interference of Doom's Latverian Luftwaffe, and finally by Whisper, as she asserted her newfound control.; ===Savage Land===; The Fantastic Four, along with the last refugees of Earth, finally settled in the Savage Land to rebuild humanity. Their next step was to send out a ship piloted by the Thing, and crewed by Father Jennifer and the mutants December, Twilight, and Metalsmith. The goal was to rendezvous with the human colony on Mars, in order to establish relations and ask for help. Cosmic rays caused the ship to crash.; Back on Earth, Johnny and Susan despaired as Reed drove himself to exhaustion to establish a technological infrastructure for the remaining humans. All three grieved for Ben's presumed loss, but Reed took it the worst, actually hallucinating at one point that Metalhead was Ben.; Sue and Johnny confronted Reed, who stated his intention to stay in the 2099 era. They left him behind. Reed accomplished his goal, making a repository of knowledge for the last of humanity. Shocked back to sanity by the databank's physical resemblance to his son Franklin, Reed raced back to Four Freedoms Plaza just in time to join Johnny and Sue. They vanished into the Negative Zone, destination uncertain.; The mutants later return to Earth with Martian aliens and resources in an attempt to help the survivors.

+Base of operations: Baxter Building, Manhattan, New York City, New York
+History:
+The Fantastic Four of Earth-1228 were, in reality, the bullpen of Marvel Comics. One day, Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Flo Steinberg, and Sol Brodsky were in the office when they got a package from the mysterious S People whom gifted them with a device that was supposed to provide them with their greatest fantasies. Opening the box, the group were be bombarded with cosmic rays instead and mutated to have super-human abilities. Stan had an elastic body, Sol burst into flame, Flo become invisible, and Jack mutated into a rock-like thing.; Deciding to learn who the S People were and finding a cure for their current mutated states, they called themselves the Fantastic Four and set themselves up in the Baxter Building and had many adventures, while maintaining their double lives as comic book publishers. They used these adventures as inspiration for a fictional Fantastic Four comic book which became very popular.; When they would go to the island owned by Dr. Morrow, they learned that he too had been mutated into a monster thanks to another one of the S People's boxes. Later, after convincing Jack to stay with the team, the group traveled to Atlantis, where the Sub-Mariner blamed the Fantastic Four for sending him a similar box. After a brief battle, the truth came out, and they decided that the threat must be coming from alien sources. Using Namor's extraterrestrial detector, they learned the alien invader was within the very throne room. The invader revealed himself to be a Skrull and explained that the boxes were a tool to turn the people of Earth into mindless slaves as part of their invasion plans. The Fantastic Four and the Sub-Mariner teamed up and chased the Skrull back to its base and destroyed it and all their boxes, ending their invasion threat. With no cure available, the Fantastic Four continued to operate as a team.; In another adventure, the Fantastic Four were suddenly put in the presence of their reality's Watcher whom was forcibly transported in front of the group by the Heralds of Earth-9997 in an attempt to hopefully get the FF to eventually learn that their Earth had been impregnated with a Celestial embryo. The outcome of this encounter remains unrevealed.

+History:
+The history of the Fantastic Four of Earth-1123, according to texts, are from an alternate version of Earth-772 home of the Fantastic Five, as such it is likely that their origins are the same. The group would be formed as the Fantastic Four much like their Earth-616 counterparts, followed by the later inclusion of Spider-Man to their roster. Much like in the 772 reality, this world's Susan Storm would leave the group and marry Namor the king of Atlantis.; The group would once more operate under the name Fantastic Four, with it's members being Mr. Fantastic, Thing, Human Torch and Spider-Man. Reed Richards would begin his research into the Negative Zone. They would transport the Reed Richards from the 616-Universes Counter-Earth, an evil being that could transform into a monstrous creature dubbed the Brute.; The Brute would in turn send the members of the Fantastic Four into the Negative Zone to presumably perish and take Reed Richard's place, eventually becoming President of the United States, becoming a regular enemy of Namor and Sue McKenzie. The fate of the remaining Fantastic Four members of Earth-1123 remains unrevealed and they are presumed to be deceased eve if their body was never found.

+The past history of the Fantastic Four of Earth-774 mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts up until Bruce Banner's transformation into the Hulk. In this reality, whenever Bruce Banner becomes the Hulk, he would still retain his human intelligence.; As a result, Reed Richards asks Banner to aid in curing Ben Grimm of being the Thing. Banner and Richards succeed however this leads to the end of the Fantastic Four. Without the Thing's strength, Johnny Storm would retire, deciding to go to college and get an education as Ben would pursue a normal relationship with his girlfriend, Alicia Masters. Reed and Sue remain at the Baxter Building and eventually invite Bruce and his wife Betty to live with them.; Ultimately, Reed loses his powers battling Galactus and Ben reverts to the Thing -- albeit more powerful than before and with a seething hatred of humanity; A Fantastic Four reunion appears unlikely.

+Equipment: Fantastic Four Uniforms; Digi-Calc
+Transportation: FantastiCar; Exclesior
+History:
+=== Origins ===; The Fantastic Four were founded in 1960 by brilliant scientist Reed Richards. Driven by a desire to explore the mysteries of outer space, Reed assembled a team that included his best friend and skilled pilot Ben Grimm, his fiancée Sue Storm, and Sue’s younger brother Johnny Storm. During their mission, the crew was exposed to intense Cosmic Radiation, which granted each of them unique superhuman abilities. Upon returning to Earth, the group chose to use their newfound powers for good, forming the superhero team known as the Fantastic Four. Reed adopted the name Mister Fantastic, Sue became the Invisible Woman, Johnny transformed into the Human Torch, and Ben became the powerful Thing.; The team's first major battle was against the villain Mole Man, a former scientist who had discovered a race of subterranean creatures beneath New York City. With the help of monstrous allies like Giganto, Mole Man launched an attack on the surface world. The Fantastic Four responded swiftly, thwarting the invasion and preventing widespread destruction. During this conflict, Sue Storm experienced a change of heart regarding Mole Man—whose real name is Harvey Elder—and ultimately convinced him to abandon his villainous path. He later became an unexpected ally to the team.; The Fantastic Four established their headquarters in the iconic Baxter Building, equipped with advanced technology and their signature transport vehicle, the FantastiCar. Over time, they faced a wide array of formidable foes, including Red Ghost and his Super-Apes, the Mad Thinker, Puppet Master, Wizard and Diablo. As their popularity soared, the team licensed their image for a wide range of merchandise—from costumes and toys to animated series and comic books. Sue also founded the Future Foundation, an organization dedicated to scientific advancement and collaboration, partnering with various companies to develop products inspired by the team.; === Meeting the Silver Surfer ===; On the evening of October 31, 1964, the Fantastic Four were enjoying dinner together when they noticed a strange phenomenon from their porch—cosmic radiation streaking down from the sky toward Earth. Alarmed and curious, Johnny Storm immediately ignited and flew toward the source, with the rest of the team following close behind in the FantastiCar. Their pursuit led them to Times Square, where the sky suddenly split open and a mysterious figure descended: the Silver Surfer. She confessed to being the cause of the cosmic disturbance and delivered a chilling warning—Earth had been marked for destruction by Galactus, the cosmic entity she served as herald. As the Surfer soared back into space, Johnny refused to let her go without answers. He chased her beyond Earth’s orbit, eventually catching up and grabbing hold of her surfboard. Before he could speak, she uttered something in an alien language he couldn't understand—then kicked him off, sending him plummeting back toward Earth. Johnny managed to reignite mid-fall and land safely, shaken but now fully aware of the looming threat. The team quickly regrouped, realizing the gravity of Galactus's arrival. They began strategizing how to stop the cosmic devourer and uncover the deeper reason behind his intent to destroy Earth.; === Doomsday ===; Five years after the Fantastic Four stopped Galactus, Sue Storm was quietly reading a storybook to her young son, Franklin, inside the Baxter Building. As she stepped away to fetch another book, their robotic assistant H.E.R.B.I.E. offered a helping hand, keeping Franklin company. But when she returned, she discovered Doctor Doom in front of her son, allowing Franklin to see his face without the mask.; The team reconstructed the spaceship Excelsior into a traveling spaceship to travel to another universes for a current unknown reason. During the mission the team's spacecraft, they entered Earth-199999's atmosphere. The ship's signal was detected by the systems of the Watchtower through a New Avengers-owned satellite.

+Reality: Earth-7712
+Base of operations: Baxter Building, New York City on Earth-7712
+History:
+On Earth-7712, Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm would take an unauthorized flight in Reed's experimental rocket into space and be exposed to Cosmic Rays much like their Earth-616 counterparts. However, in this reality, each member would be endowed with different abilities:; Reed would become a disembodied brain with massive telepathic powers dubbed Big Brain, Sue into the elastic bodied Ultra-Woman, Johnny into a cyborg Mandroid and Ben the reptilian winged Dragonfly. The group would organize as the Fantastic Four and set up their base of operations within New York's Baxter Buildings. In their earliest adventures they would face such foes as Miracle Man, Sub-Mariner, the Skrulls, and the Mole Man. The circumstances and outcomes of these battles (short of the Fantastic Four being victorious in each one) remain largely unrevealed. The team would operate mostly with Ultra-Woman, Dragonfly and Mandroid acting in the field with telepathic support of Big Brain from headquarters. Reed would spend his time working on inventing new devices but would soon grow worried that in his current state he would lose Sue to Ben Grimm.; After the Fantastic Four would foil a demon in the employ of Dr. Doom (attempting to steal some of Black Beards treasure from a museum) they would earn the Latverian monarchs ire. Realizing their leader was none other than his old university rival Reed Richards, Doom would target Richard's insecurities and trick him into accompanying him back to Latveria to obtain a new body. In reality, Doom really sought Richard's incredible brain power to power his time machine, and would clash with Mandroid when making his escape with Richard's brain.; The rest of the Fantastic Four would follow Doom to Latveria and battle him. In the final battle Doom would attempt to kill Richards in an explosion, however Richards would use his mental powers to switch bodies so that he might live in on Doom's body. Revealing his survival to his comrades Richards would rename himself Mr. Fantastic and resume leadership of the Fantastic Four in a more active capacity.; The Fantastic Four would next be tapped by the Time Variance Authority to stop Immortus from taking over the multiverse by absorbing massive amounts of chronal energy. Targeting Nathaniel Richards in his youth before he became Immortus, they would opt to send the Fantastic Four of Earth-7712 to battle young Nathaniel due to their belief that this incarnation of the team was more powerful than their Earth-616 counterparts. They would prompt the young Nathaniel to use doomsday weapons to kill them all. After the Timequake event, the TVA resurrected a number of the beings they used that were killed during the event, it is unrevealed if the Fantastic Four of Earth-7712 were among those resurrected by the TVA. Further, Earth-7712 was visited by Vangaard who was destroying realities that he found redundant, it remains unrevealed if Earth-7712 was among those realities that were destroyed.

+History:
+===Early Years===; Much of the Fantastic Four's early history is mirrored by that of their Earth-616 counterparts.; In a bid win the space race, Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Benjamin Grimm and Johnny Storm performed an unauthorized launch of a space-shuttle, despite the warnings of the pilot Ben Grimm in regards to the dangers of cosmic rays and the ship's untested shielding. The shuttle crashed, but not before the group were exposed to a sizeable dose of cosmic radiation, causing all of them to mutate. Together they formed the superhero group known as the Fantastic Four and would go on to have countless adventures. Reed eventually married Susan Storm, and they had a son by the name of Franklin.; ===Mutation of Humanity===; When all of humanity suddenly began to mutate, global anarchy erupted. The Fantastic Four's headquarters the Baxter Building became a fortress, as all the greatest minds in the superhero community gathered there to try and reverse the mutations.; When the last unmutated human, a child by the name of David Jarrett was found by Ghost Rider, Reed Richards took him in and began running experiments on him. Due to the machinations of Norman Osborn and the fact that many in New York City blamed the Fantastic Four and other heroes for what had happened to them, the Baxter Building was stormed by a mob of mutated humans. Despite doing their best to hold the mob at bay and defend David, he was killed in the fighting, before order could be restored.; By now, Reed and Sue's son Franklin had grown to adulthood and had begun joining the Fantastic Four on missions. One such mission brought the Fantastic Four to the United Nations to stop Namor and Doctor Doom from slaughtering the delegates there. Namor was protesting the UN's refusal to recognize Atlantis and humanity's dependence on aquatic life as a source for food in light of a global meat shortage.; During the ensuing battle, the Human Torch was killed by Namor, causing Franklin to lash out with his immense powers. He cursed Namor, making it so that half of his body would forever burn while out of water, prompting Namor to retreat. Doom had plotted to kill Reed using a bomb that was wired into his armor, and planned to teleport his body away leaving his foes to believe both Reed and Doom were killed. But Doom was chased away by a maddened Invisible Woman. Doom detonated his bomb, and due to a malfunction in his armor both he and Sue perished in the blast.; With Johnny and Sue dead, the Fantastic Four disbanded. Shortly thereafter Franklin and Reed traveled to Wundagore Mountain. The High Evolutionary, the Silver Surfer, and Adam Warlock had become aware that Reed's turning Galactus into a star had upset the delicate balance of the universe. Franklin agreed to allow the High Evolutionary to use his equipment to accelerate his mutation, allowing him to be shaped by the perceptions of others. Accompanied by the Silver Surfer, Franklin lost his real identity and came to believe that he was Galactus, leaving Earth to carry on his grim task.; Tormented by the loss of his family, Reed retired to Castle Doom, donning the armor of his old nemesis Doctor Doom and taking his place while trying to figure out how the planet had been mutated. Ben Grim meanwhile retired from superheroing and settled into domestic life with his wife Alicia Masters and their sons the Brothers Grimm.; ===Earth X===; The remaining members of the Fantastic Four were brought together years later, when Ben Grimm was sought out by the Inhuman Royal Family, who had come looking for Reed. The Inhumans sought Reed's help in finding their dispersed people, among them the crown prince Ahura.; Together with Ben, Reed traveled to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters and collected Professor Xavier's Cerebro machine. Using his own stretching powers to stretch his brain to match Xavier's own and modifying Cerebro, Reed then used the device to try and track the missing Inhumans. He soon found out that everybody on the planet had Inhuman physiology. Reed would learn that Black Bolt had secretly set off a Terrigen Bomb to protect his people, triggering the mutation of humanity.; Soon afterwards, Reed was confronted by X-51, who had been watching the Earth on behalf of Uatu, the Earth's former Watcher who had been blinded by Black Bolt years ago. X-51 revealed to Reed that the Celestials had manipulated the human race to mutate into super-beings in order to defend the Celestial embryo in the core of the Earth that would destroy the planet upon its birth. Furthermore, he revealed that the Final Host of Celestials was en route to scour Earth of all life, as the premature mutation of humanity endangered their embryo.; While Reed convinced Black Bolt to contact Galactus for help, Ben Grimm aided Captain America in stopping the Skull, a young mutant with the ability to completely control those nearby him, from conquering the USA.; After Galactus defeated the Celestials in New York Harbor, Reed himself asked Galactus to spare the people of Earth and destroy the Celestial embryo growing in the planet without eradicating everyone on the surface. By making Galactus believe that the people of the universe believed him to be compassionate and merciful, he succeeded in making it so. Galactus destroyed the embryo, and Reed resisted the temptation of revealing the truth to his son.; Soon after, Reed and the Earth's heroes began construction of what would be called the "Human Torches", built out of his old Vibranium relay towers. These torches would burn the Terrigen Mists from the air so that Reed could find a way to reverse the mutations. Just as the first Human Torch was unveiled to the public, an exhausted Reed fell asleep and encountered deceased hero Captain Mar-Vell. Mar-Vell revealed his part in saving the Earth from the Celestials, and told Reed he was returning from the dead to save everyone. He asked Reed to hide him upon his return.; Reed returned to Castle Doom, now joined by Ben and his family, as well as Adam Warlock and Eve, who was pregnant with child. This child would be the reincarnation of Mar-Vel.; ===Universe X===; Mar-Vell's rebirth as an unmutated human made him the target of fearful mobs, who viewed the unmutated child and Reed's plans to burn away the Terrigen Mists as a threat to their newfound superpowers. Desperate to hide Mar-Vell, Reed contacted the one person he believed no one would suspect him of working with; Prince Namor. Mar-Vell was sent to Atlantis, where he was protected by Namor and cared for by Agatha Harkness.; After 3 years it became apparent that the death of the Celestial embryo in Earth's core had destabilized the planet's polar axis causing the poles to shift and ecological disasters across the planet. Most of humanity (in part thanks to the propaganda created by Immortus and Mr. Church -- whom was really Mephisto in disguise) believed this was due to the Torches leading to constant attempts to put them out.; Ben Grimmw was sent to retrieve the three-year old Mar-Vell, who gave the pair a gift. Following his rebirth, Mar-Vell now existed as a binary being, both in the Land of the Dead and in the world of the living. Using Adam Warlock's Soul Stone, Alicia Masters' powers and Reed own arm, Mar-Vell was able to resurrect Sue Storm, reuniting the Fantastic Four with their dead teammate.; An invigorated Reed turned his attention to solving the ecological disasters plaguing Earth. However, mounting pressure from the mutated humanity prevented Reed from being able to find a solution to the problem as he and the Fantastic Four spent most of their time defending Latveria's human torch. When the castle was stormed by mutated humans, it took the aid of Ransak the Reject and other deformed mutates known as the Monster Generation to save the Torch from falling. However during the course of the battle the Tong of Creel stole the piece of the Absorbing Man that Reed was safeguarding and Mephisto stole Dr. Doom's time machine in hopes of tricking Immortus into using it to change history, and thus create yet another parallel world for him to escape into.; After the battle, Reed reached the conclusion that Earth was beyond rescue and began loading the Fantastic Four, the Monster Generation and the Inhumans into the Inhumans' own ship in hopes of escaping the planet before it was destroyed by its own repolarization. However, this was not meant to be, as the newly resurrected Absorbing Man sacrificed his own life in order to prevent the planet from destroying itself. During this time in the Realm of the Dead, Mar-Vel also succeeded in killing Death and setting up his own Paradise in this realm for those who had died.; ===Paradise X===; The destruction of Death would have great ramifications for the living. With Death's passing nobody on Earth was able to die, and with Mephisto mortally wounding people the world over, soon the Human Torches were converted into giant hospitals. Castle Doom was converted into a waiting room for the would-be dead. Calling together the greatest minds of the planet, Reed argued in favor of the need to find a new Death.; They soon found themselves traveling to the Florida Everglades, in search of Jude the Entropic Man whom the Thing and Captain America had fought years ago. Reed with the help of others managed to capture Jude and come up with a way to synthetically duplicate his entropic touch in order to use it to ease the suffering of the dead. However, Mephisto plotted to use Jude as a tool of revenge against the heroes and set Jude free, with the understanding that Jude would kill Susan.; Narrowly escaping Jude, the Fantastic Four and the world's heroes became aware that Mar-Vel's new Paradise was threatening to swallow the Negative Zone, and all points beyond, and decided to investigate. With Mar-Vell's living, human form having become separated from his deceased Kree self, doubts about Mar-Vell's intentions began to mount.; Reed jumped into the giant anti-mater star that was the gateway to Paradise and was lost to all waiting for him. The heroes sent Hyperion after Reed, but Hyperion was killed when he tried to follow Reed into the black sun that orbited over Paradise and soon found himself involved in the battle there against the Kree.; Inside the star, Reed was confronted by Mar-Vel who explained that Paradise wasn't destroying everything in its path, but instead shielding it from the influence of the Elders of the Universe and the Celestials. He revealed that the chaos that had been unleashed onto Earth and Paradise was Mar-Vell's way of ending the cycle of violence once and for all, before ending the Kree's attempted invasion. Mar-Vell chose to pass his omniscience to Reed, making him the new Eternity. Freeing his brother-in-law Johnny from his own paradise-gone-bad, Reed announced his intentions to save his son.

+This incarnation of the superhero team known as the Fantastic Four all developped the same superpowers, namely those of the Human Torch, rather than each getting an individual power.; Despite their similar powers, they all have their own distinct appearances however while flamed on. They become the Fantastic Four and use their fire abilities to be heroes. The team performs well for a little while, beating Moleman and the Skrulls. Then they fight Miracle Man, who brings a statue of a monster to life. In the battle with the reanimated statue, an abandoned building catches fire. The team however decides that, since the building is condemned already, there’s no reason they shouldn’t just go bring in Miracle Man and then use their powers to stop the fire once they’re finished. Unbeknown to them however, a single mother waitress and her daughter had taken up residence in the building.; When the team finally comes back to put out the fire, they find an exhausted firefighter with a dead little girl in his arms and a mother screaming at them for being murderers. Horrified by how they unintentionally let a little girl die, the team disbands for good.

However, due to his Cosmic Radiation mutated anatomy he crashed his Sky-Cycle and hid in a cave to continue mutating. He was discovered by the rest of the Fantastic Four and Alicia Masters just as his body was overloaded with energy. He exploded and returned to his human form, having completely expelled the Cosmic radiation and cured Alicia's blindness. Reed then took on Bill Foster as the fourth member of the Fantastic Four.

He and Invisible Woman left to investigate, but were unable to find the creature. Meanwhile, Human Torch, during a team-up with Spider-Man, captured an enraged Qeelocke. On their way back to the Baxter Building, Johnny met Freefall, but she quickly blew him off.; They met again and Johnny realized she was looking for Qeelocke, with her breaking into the Baxter Building when he mentioned her pet was growing exponentially. He tried to calm her down, but Burnout misinterpreted his gesture as an attack and started a fight between Gen¹³ and the Fantastic Four. Their fight escalated until Reed and Sue returned.; Qeelocke outgrew has cage and escaped while the creature in the atlantic rampaged throughout New York City. Mister Fantastic theorized that Qeelocke and the creature was drawn to one another and getting ready to fight each other. The two teams agreed to work together, but were unable to stop the beasts. Instead, they drew them to Central Park to avoid civilian casualties. The two creatures engaged, subverting expectations by mating rather than fighting. Once Qeelocke returned to normal, the two teams went their separate ways.

+History:
+On Earth-9061 history took a much different course during World War II. In this reality, Russia had taken full control of Germany after the defeat of Axis powers in 1944. This difference in history resulted in the Cold War continuing on well into the modern age of this reality. When Russian leader Josef Stalin died, the Russian government created a robot with the help of Hollywood movie producers to resembled their leader and led the public to believe that Stalin continued to live thanks to cybernetic enhancements that kept him alive and vital.; The Stalinbot was then used to escalate hostilities between the United States and Russia during a period where the Fantastic Four of this reality were off trying to destroy the Bubble at the Heart of Time in the future of Earth-8810. While they were gone the Fantastic Four of Earth-616 arrived in this reality from their own mission to stop the Time-Bubble, believing this to be their native reality.; When this Fantastic Four returned to their native reality, it was after their Earth-616 counterparts had just stopped the Russians from setting off a nuclear war. Mister Fantastic later found a file on his desk left by his Earth-616 counterpart that informed him that members of the State Department have replaced government officials with robot duplicates.

+History:
+The past history of the Fantastic Four of Earth-7940, particularly their origins, closely mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts until early on in their career. While Mister Fantastic was in the process of moving the group from Central City to New Amsterdam their reality was visited by the Thing of Earth-616. Thing-616 believed that had traveled into his own past in the hopes of administering a cure for his mutation developed by the Mister Fantastic of his own reality, unaware that he was actually in a parallel dimension. Thing-616 battled his Earth-7940 counterpart to a standstill and administered the cure, changing him back to Ben Grimm. With his mission over, the Thing of Earth-616 returned to his native reality.; Without powers, Ben Grimm left the group to start a nomral life. To fill the gap in their membership, the Fantastic Four allowed Spider-Man join their ranks. This new incarnation of the team battled foes such as Doctor Doom and the Mole Man. However the team met their demise at the hands of the world devourer known as Galactus. Unprepared for this attack the Fantastic Four were easily slain by Galactus, who later slew the rest of Earth's heroes before draining Earth of its life energies and departing, leaving the survivors to pick up the pieces.; The group was survived by Ben Grimm, who led resistance fighters in overthrowing the recently revived Red Skull who came to power after Galactus.

+History:
+After the Fantastic Four left to a cosmic voyage, an alliance between Doctor Doom, Kang and Annihilus conquered the Earth.; The Fantastic Four returned and formed an resistance composed by what was left of the Future Foundation, Namor, and the time-displaced Jean Grey, whose presence helped them remain hidden from Kang's forces.; Using a hijacked Doombot, the Fantastic Four launched an attack to the Baxter Building (Doom's current headquarters) in order to deactivate the chrono-dimensional shield surrounding the Earth which prevented help arrive from any point of space or time. When they got to the power core, they discovered it was booby trapped. They decided to continue the plan and use one of Invisible Woman's force fields to contain the blast. However, when they destroyed the core, depowering the shield for a split second, and launched a cosmic signal flare out to space along with the essence of their powers, the blast from the trap stripped them from their entire powers.; Doctor Doom faced them, and disfigured Human Torch's face after Johnny mocked him. Johnny later managed to escape this universe and regain his powers to get help, but the rest of the Fantastic Four died.; The cosmic flare with the essence of their powers found the Fantastic Four of Earth-616, but the overload of powers caused problems to them.

+Reality: Earth-13122
+Base of operations: Baxter Building
+Transportation: Fantasticar
+History:
+Bombarded by cosmic radiation during an experimental mission to outer space, Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Jonathan Storm and Benjamin Grimm gained powers and formed the Fantastic Four.; ===Cosmic Brick Crisis===; ====A Trip to the Baxter Building====; Reed Richards was tasked with analyzing the Cosmic Brick taken by S.H.I.E.L.D. after the fight against Sand-Man. To help, Fury assigned Captain America to help him back at the Baxter Building. Finding themselves locked out of the Baxter Building, Reed and Captain America were able to use their ingenuity to bypass the security system, entering the building, finding Doctor Octopus stealing the Cosmic Bricks in the lab. The two pursued Doctor Octopus, leading to Doctor Octopus leaving and heading for the roof. Taking to the roof via the Fantastivator, Doctor Octopus gave chase across various rooftops. Eventually, this led Doc Ock Daily Bugle, where he stormed through the office and caused Spider-Man to take accompany Cap and Reed. The trio pursued Doc Ock to Times Square, defeating him in combat only for the brick he stole to be recovered by Green Goblin. After the fight, Mr. Fantastic used his long arms to marshal signal the arrival of a Quinjet. Black Widow and Hawkeye then sent Reed and Cap back to the lab to continue Reed's research.; ====Hydra Hideout and Skirmish on Asgard====; Johnny was sent to infiltrate the Hydra base in the Empire State Building to help Black Widow and Hawkeye, and then head to Asgard with Captain America, Wolverine and Thor to follow Loki, who was at the Hydra base to use a teleport to Asgard.; ====Operation: Latveria====; With the Teseract being held in Latveria, Fury acquired the assistance of the Fantastic Four to storm Doom's castle after S.H.I.E.L.D. provided cleanup assistance for the Baxter Building. With the Four and Fury taking the Fantasticar to Latveria, they were met with incoming fire, Fury and Torch split up with the rest of the team to secure the landing zone, while Reed set the Fantasti-Car to autopilot and landed on Latverian soil with Sue and Ben. The three found Green Goblin's hellicopter, along with a group of Doombots and their line to Fury jammed. Fighting their way through the doombots and disabling the satellite that was blocking the signal, Fury sent the team a distress call, having met heavy resistance on the other side of the castle. Eventually meeting up with Johnny and Fury, the five were forced to trigger the security alarm to gain access to the elevator, as this would cause many Doombots to be brought down from the interiors of the castle and thus grant them access to the Elevator. Upon reaching Doom's lair, the five were met by Green Goblin who attacked them, knocking Johnny Storm unconcious, and sending Doombots after the rest. Eventually, the four were able to knock out Goblin. Afterwards, Johnny regained conciousness and the five confronted Doom. However, they were then crushed under rocks as a result of Loki's blasts. The five survived this attack, clearing up the rubble and bringing the captured Silver Surfer back to the hellicarrier.; ====Rise of Liberty====; Upon Magneto controlling the Statue of Liberty, Hulk and Mr. Fantastic were sent to deal with it, rendezvousing with Wolverine. Working their way upward whilst fighting Magneto's acolytes and avoiding attacks from Liberty, the trio eventually made their way outside, where Magneto used the Statue of Liberty to step on the three, causing them to end up inside the statue. Working their way to Liberty's head, they encountered Mastermind, who controlled each consecutive member of the trio with his mind control powers, exploiting their fears to make them lash out. Reed and Logan were eventually able to resist the mind control while Hulk ended up passing out as a result of the mind control. Mastermind then altered their perception to disguise his true location, which Wolverine was able to bypass through his heightened senses, knocking him out. After Hulk regained conciousness the other two found Magneto successfully extracting the Roxxon core, using his magnetic powers to decapitate the Statue of Liberty sending them flying.; ====Battle on Asteroid M====; Upon Magneto stealing a Roxxon nucelar source, Thing and Captain America were flown to Magneto's location by Black Widow. Landing on the island that Asteroid M was held, Thing went through a rough landing, smashing into the ground and burrying him in the sand. Captain America helped Grimm out of the sand and the pair explored the island, finding and taking out several Brotherhood bases along the way. Eventually, they found a group of dinosaurs taken from the Savage Land before they found Magneto raising the island. After being cornered by a group of Dinosaurs, the two were rescued by Storm who joined them in their quest to take down Magneto. The three eventually encountered Mystique posing as Magneto, using a metal-bending gun to further the pretense, and Rhino who had taken refuge on the island. After Thing was able to beat Rhino in a fight, the three used nearby Debris to break through Mystique's metal shield. Despite their efforts, however, Asteroid M still rose, though they were still able to capture Mystique.; Pursuing Asteroid M, the three found Spider-Man standing alone against Loki and Doom. They decided to help Spider-Man, prompting the two to retreat to the upper levels. Fighting Magneto Acolytes and Doombots along the way, the four were able to activate an elevator to the outer corridors of the spacestation, where they were met by minions and security measures, including several security turrets. Opening a door to a joining connection bridge despite the securities' systems warnings, the quartet were sucked out into space, eventually landing back in the spacestation where they confronted Doctor Doom.With Doom channeling his newfound power into a forcefield and Loki out of reach, the team fought a wave of standard Doombots, V-Series Doombots and Magneto Acolytes before Doom chanelled his powers into a laser cannon, allowing Captain America to deflect it, destroying the cannons and allowing them to fight him directly. After working through the rest of his defences, the heroes were finally able to defeat Doom, with the Thing punching him into space. After Iron Man and Thor rejoined the group Loki revealed his master plan, use the Doom Ray to take control of Galactus and have it devour Earth and Asgard. Loki demonstrated this, having Galactus destroy Asteroid M, causing the 6 heroes to crash-land on the hellicarrier. Team One worked to repair one of the S.H.I.E.L.D. turbines, eventually directing the subsequent wind to Galactus.; ====Clean-Up at the Baxter Building====; The Baxter Building having been fully cleaned up from Doom's attack, Sue and Reed were greeted by Magneto who crashed through the ceiling upon being defeated in a battle with several other heroes. The two were then called in by S.H.I.E.L.D. for a meeting as Reed resigned himself to cleaning up. During this meeting, Fury informed a group of heroes of the threat that Galactus and Doom posed.; ====Last Stand on the Hellicarrier====; The Fantastic Four were present in the final battle against Galactus, alongside the other heroes and villains. With everyone's help, they managed to create a black hole to send Galactus away and thus defeat the threat.; ===Afterparty at Stark Tower===; After the Cosmic Brick Crisis was resolved and Galactus was defeated, Tony held a party at Stark Tower. The Fantastic Four attended the party and, much like the other guests, found it lifeless and boring. The group was able to become more enthusiastic for the party, however, once Tony and Rhodey activated a disco ball.; ===Crystal===; The Fantastic Four took in an Inhuman named Crystal after a war forced her to flee Attilan to New York. She was a member of the group for a while until she decided to return to Attilan to assume his position in the Inhuman Royal Family.

+History:
+The Fantastic Four's history is presumably similar to their Earth-616 counterparts'.; The Fantastic Four accompanied the Avengers and the X-Men to investigate the corpse of Galactus after Captain Marvel sent a distress signal. This turned out to be a trap set by the Respawned, intelligent zombies infected by a new breed of Brood parasites. The Fantastic Four were quickly all zombified while their allies were either killed or zombified as well.; The Respawned then attacked Earth. During the attack on New York City, the Fantastic Four attacked Franklin and Valeria Richards and their ally Spider-Man so they could turn them, especially Franklin due to his powerful mutant abilities. Invisible Woman bit into Franklin, motivating Spider-Man into rescuing him and Valeria and fleeing.; The Respawned wiped out nearly all of humankind. Years later, the Fantastic Four and the Respawned moved into Limbo so they could invade the Multiverse, but first, they wanted to add Franklin to their ranks. So, they lured Franklin and the small group he was with into a trap and transported him to Limbo. When Invisible Woman tried turning him into a zombie, she discovered that his consciousness had been transferred into a new techno-organic body he didn't turn into a zombie. Franklin, Valeria, and their allies fought off the zombies until they were able to destroy the hive mind contained in Galactus' corpse, wiping out the Respawned, including the Fantastic Four.

+History:
+The Fantastic Four welcomed the Inhuman Crystal when she came back Earth after having divorced Quicksilver. In the following weeks, they became one of the most powerful team on the planet, but there were tensions in their ranks; the Invisible Woman believed that the source of the stress was Crystal's presence and Sue asked the other to leave, but they started figthing. Mister Fantastic was convinced by the two women's actions that Crystal had to leave, but his wife herself told him to let the Inhuman stay with them (comparing their argument to the past ones between the Human Torch and the Thing). After that episode, a furious Torch faced his sister who still treated him as a child, claiming he loved both Crystal and his wife Alicia somehow, but he wouldn't let that ruining his marriage; in that moment, little Franklin Richards had a psychic crisis and his father managed to heal him, causing the little boy to regain some of his lost memories: he explained that in order to convince the Thing in turning back human, he altered his relationship with Alicia, making her falling in love with Johnny Storm. Franklin then tried to fix what he did, leaving Ben, Johnny and Alicia free to love who they wanted, but causing, according to Susan Storm, the end of the Fantastic Four.

The FF and the other heroes would be forced to stop the fight when Magneto would threaten the lives of the entire US government. Later, when the government would unleash the Sentinels in response to Magneto's take over of Washington, they would target Franklin Richards, prompting his family to protect him. Official reports identify that Mr. Fantastic, Thing, Human Torch, and Franklin Richards were all slain by the Sentinels, however it's entirely likely the rest of the Fantastic four were slain as well.

+History:
+The Fantastic Four of Earth-49487 exist in a reality that closely mirrors the early days of the modern age of Earth-616 when the group was still in their early beginnings. The group soon encountered their Earth-616 counterparts who ended up in their reality trying to search for their missing leader Mister Fantastic. When the Invisible Woman of Earth-616 accidentally mistook Earth-49487's Mister Fantastic as her husband, the 616-FF were confronted by their 49487 counterparts.; Although a possible battle was put aside while cooler heads prevailed, thanks to the machinations of a Malice controlled Psi-Lord, a fight broke out between the two versions of the Fantastic Four. As the battle raged on, the 616-FF's Ant-Man attempted to contact ants to aid in their battle. This led to Earth-49487's Henry Pym (formally an Ant-Man himself) to change into his identity of Giant-Man and gather his teammates in the Avengers to help the Fantastic Four from the "impostors" they were battling against. As the battle raged on, the combatants were interrupted by the arrival of the Dark Raider, an agent of Aron the Rogue Watcher. He slew both Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Girl of this reality before retreating from the rest of the heroes. With the death of half of the team, the Fantastic Four was no more. In the confusion the Earth-616 heroes returned on their quest to find their lost leader, leaving their Earth-49487 counterparts to pick up the pieces of their shattered lives.

They were presumably sent back to Earth when the situation was resolved. Invisible Woman remained on Earth, and she and the Vision had to defend the United States from Soviet nuclear missiles.; What became of the Fantastic Four's members later is unknown. They were likely one of the many superheroes who were left "dead or missing" following Doctor Doom's takeover of the planet, though it's possible that Invisible Woman was safe from Doom while in Atlantis.

+History:
+The Fantastic Four's history is presumably the same as their Earth-616 counterparts' up to the point where Spider-Man first bonded with the Venom symbiote.; Human Torch watched as Mister Fantastic studied Spider-Man's symbiote, which resembled a black costume, and determined that it was alive and was trying to bond with him. Richards wanted to remove the creature for Spider-Man's safety and study it. Spider-Man refused to turn the creature into a test subject and wanted to respect it as a living thing before leaving in a huff.; When Spider-Man finally gave in to the corrupting nature of the living costume and starting threatening and killing criminals, Mister Fantastic and Human Torch began tracking him in order to save him before the costume fully bonded with him. However, their searches always came up with nothing.; Spider-Man eventually separated from the symbiote, but the symbiote decided to bond with Richards and used his intellect to extract offspring from it in order to "save everyone." The first person forced to bond with one of these symbiotes was Fantastic Four member the Thing.; To prevent interference, the symbiote engulfed the Baxter Building in symbiote biomass. Through the use of Richards' genius, the symbiote made the biomass immune to flames, preventing the Human Torch from entering. While the Avengers, X-Factor, and remaining Fantastic Four members tried to solve the situation, Spider-Man appeared and offered to help. Torch lashed out at Spider-Man, blaming him for the situation because he refused to give up the symbiote. Invisible Woman calmed Torch down and asked Spider-Man what he knew about the symbiote.; Spider-Man was allowed to enter the Baxter Building to stop the symbiote and was followed by Torch and his girlfriend Mary Jane Watson while Invisible Woman remained outside to watch over her son Franklin. Torch and Spider-Man tried to get to Richards' lab but were attacked by the symbiote-possessed Thing. While Torch went on ahead, Spider-Man dealt with Thing. When Torch reached Richards' lab, he fought the symbiote and Richards who wore armor to protect him from flames. The symbiote then released its offspring upon New York City. When the symbiote was about to kill Torch, Mary Jane fired upon it with a handgun and told it to leave Torch alone.; Torch flew away with Mary Jane while the symbiote and a cadre of symbiote-possessed symbiotes chased after them. They were aided by Invisible Woman who forced their pursuers into a building but was then captured by the symbiote. Torch then switched places with Spider-Man and impersonated him using an Image Inducer to trick the symbiote into releasing Reed and the other heroes in exchange for possession him. The symbiote complied but killed Reed so he couldn't interfere again. After fleeing into the Baxter Building, Torch killed the symbiote with his flames, freeing the possessed heroes. Later, Invisible Woman offered Spider-Man membership into the Fantastic Four, which he accepted.

Then Star-Lord from 55 years in the future to retrieve the Ultimate Nullifier to stop the Universal Church of Truth from destroying Earth. However, Sue and Reed refused to hand over the Ultimate Nullifier as they didn't believe Star-Lord. Then Kang the Conqueror appeared after sensing Star-Lord's trip through time and banished Sue and Reed into the timestream.; Star-Lord was eventually able to track down Sue's and Reed's location in the timestream using the Rosebud III, but by them, both had longed died of old age. They left a recording for Star-Lord, stating that they were sorry for not believing him and left him the Ultimate Nullifier for him to use.; Doctor Doom later learned that he was dying of cancer and tried to create clones of the Fantastic Four so that he would die in battle against them.

Returning to Earth, thanks to remote piloting by Alyssa, they crashed upon arrival at the ground. When they exited the dropship, they found that cosmic radiation had completely altered their persona, with Reed finding himself to have an extremely elastic body, Sue able to turn invisible and create force fields, Johnny has his whole body on fire and is able to fly, and finally Ben is transformed into a monstrous rock form with immense strength. After some misunderstandings, the four decided to work together forming a team of adventurers and explorers and deciding to call themselves the Fantastic Four. .

+History:
+The history of this Fantastic Four presumably mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts up to the point where Galactus first came to Earth. Unlike on Earth-616, the Watcher chose not to intervene, so instead the Fantastic Four were warned of the arrival of the Silver Surfer by Director Fury, which preceded the arrival of Galactus. While Mister Fantastic tried to come up with a solution, the rest of the team bought him time by battling Galactus and the Surfer. Mister Fantastic eventually used the alien's own technology to create an Ultimate Nullification Ray that projected zero energy that was poisonous to Galactus and then used that weapon to kill Galactus. However, by that time all members of the team had been permanently disfigured by the conflict.; Reed Richards later used zero energy to undo the harm that Galactus had caused to the planet. Within a year, he had also turned Earth into a paradise without hunger or pollution, and where there was an endless supply of clean energy for everyone to use.; Unfortunately, this miracle proved to be short-lived because the generator that Richards had built began to malfunction. Reed realized that the Zero Energy was building up too fast but by then it was too late for anything to be done. As the Zero Energy exploded out of its containment, it formed an expanding sphere that first destroyed New York City, killing the Fantastic Four and every other living thing in the city. Then, with nothing to stop it, the Zero Energy continued unchecked and destroyed the Earth before spreading out across the entire universe, unmaking it all.

+History:
+The full history of the Fantastic Four in this timeline is unknown, but it is presumably similar in many-to-most respects to their Earth-616 counterparts until an unknown point where a series of 'mutant wars' devastate the globe. The Fantastic Four survive the global conflagration and Reed Richards assumes a position of global leadership following the war, enabling humanity as a whole to survive and helping to rebuild the shattered planet afterwards.; However, Doctor Doom -- who also survived the conflict, albeit having suffered horrific injuries forcing him to replace large parts of his body and numerous limbs with 'advanced' cybernetic alternatives and having lost his political and technological power-base -- rejects Reed's overtures and attacks the Four in their satellite above the Earth, having nothing left to him but his vendetta against the Four. During the battle, the young Franklin and Valeria Richards, having developed superpowers of their own, engage Doom in combat against the advice and wishes of their family, triggering an explosion which seemingly kills Doom, Franklin and Valeria.; Broken by the loss of Franklin and Valeria, the Four go their separate ways. Reed loses himself in his work, producing great technological advances which enable humanity to live longer and transforming the Earth and surrounding solar system into a techno-utopia -- however, he is gradually isolating himself from humanity as a result. Sue Richards becomes obsessed with locating a way to rescue her children and begins researching esoteric items of arcane significance to help her achieve this goal. Johnny Storm remains in the public eye as the Human Torch, this time as the leader of the Avengers, now a planetary defence force working to protect the entire solar system, which has been colonized by humanity and subject to a quarantine by other major intergalactic species. And Ben Grimm, now partially cured thanks to the efforts of Reed, has retired to Mars to start a family with Alicia Masters and to live among the Inhumans, who have relocated there en masse.

Doctor Doom travelled back in time to Earth-616, where he tried to prevent this Richards from implementing his plan, stating that it would result in chaos, so he could become the savior of Earth instead of him.; The Fantastic Four followed Doom to Earth-616 and helped him to go to an Earth-83553, where every hero was killed by Hulk, giving him the opportunity to save a Earth.

Earth-616's Thing returned and defused the fight, allowing both sides to find a way to communicate. Doctor Doom then arrived to demonstrate that he and his dinosaur counterpart would merge the two universes, and they had weaponry the heroes could not overcome. The human and dinosaur Things followed Doom, allegedly to watch, but with the goal of turning the two Dooms on each other. In the ensuing chaos the Fantastic Four returned to their home universe.

In his haste to save the planet, though, Reed left off shielding critical to the safety of the crew. Bombarded by Cosmic ray, the crew and the elements they carried were all affected. Crashing back to earth, the mission was a seeming failure, but when the crew realized they each possessed the ability to assume the form of, and control, one of the four basic elements, allowing them to carry out their mission by using their powers in unison.

+History:
+Earth-99315 was in a possible future of Earth-616 where Doctor Doom was regarded a hero and eventually married the Invisible Woman of the Fantastic Four after the death of Reed Richards. When Valeria Richards, the daughter of Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman of Earth-616 apparently died during childbirth her brother Franklin subconsciously used his powers to transport her body to Earth-99315 where she was reborn as Valeria von Doom, daughter to this reality's Invisible Woman and Doctor Doom. Valeria was raised to be a heir to Doom's empire and grow a close bond to her brother Franklin.; On an undisclosed mission Mister Fantastic, the Human Torch, the Thing and Doctor Doom apparently perished. Doom's dying request was that his bodyguard Lancer protect his daughter from danger. The surviving members of the Fantastic Four and their ally Caledonia later commissioned Alicia Masters to sculpt a statue of their fallen teammates. This scene was viewed by the Fantastic Four of Earth-616 who were given a cryptic warning by Franklin of an impending catastrophic before being sent back to their proper reality. Later, Valeria and her bedroom were transported to Earth-616 where it became a fixture of the Fantastic Four's Pier Four headquarters.; Earth-99315 was later invaded by the Kree and later an alien race similar to the Brood. the subsequent fate of the Fantastic Four of this world is unknown. Valeria von Doom however was reincarnated as her Earth-616 counterpart and reborn as a child in that reality.

Starstruck, Invisible Woman kissed Flash and the FF accompanied him for his parade and the ceremony where he received the key to the city. This reality was created from the mind of the Flash Thompson of Earth-616 as his "Perfect World" when Mysterio tried to use the minds of those closest to his Spider-Man to determine his identity.

+Created by: Dirk Maggs
+Reality: Earth-96115
+Base of operations: Baxter Building
+History:
+The Fantastic Four were originally a group of scientific explorers who went up into space. During the trip, a radiation leak caused them all to gain extraordinary powers. When they returned to Earth, they became a team of superheros known as the Fantastic Four. The team was made up of test pilot, Ben Grimm, scientist Reed Richards, and twins Johnny Storm and Sue Storm. Three years later, The Fantastic Four arrived on the scene of a prison riot and each member attempted to infiltrate the prison in various ways to stop the leader of the riots, Rocko, and save the captured Warden of the prison. Mister Fantastic (Reed Richards) gave orders to the Human Torch (Johnny Storm) to flame on and melt the prison walls with his fire, to Invisible Girl (Susan Storm) to turn invisible and sneak past the prisoners guarding the security control room, and to The Thing (Ben Grimm) to stay outside. Thing refused to follow that order and began to smash the gates of the prison in order to get inside. Reed tried to stretch his way past the prison security and stop Rocko, but the gates he was caught between were doused in some kind of electricity-conducting material. Eventually the team were able to round up the escapees and end the riot, but not without Ben accidentally hitting the Warden during the chaos.; ===Meeting Spider-Man===; Shortly after, they received a call from a scared teenager named Peter Parker who claimed to have been bitten by a radioactive spider and was fearful that he was turning into a spider. The team were unsure whether to believe him or not but quickly realized that he sounded too scared to be a prankster. A short while later, the team realized that Parker had been using his newfound powers for financial gain by showcasing them on television as a masked character known as Spider-Man. They also realized that there was a chance he could be a threat and they would inevitably have to confront him.; The Fantastic Four were called on to help assist with a New York City Police chase of wanted thief Scar Jackson. They chased him through Brooklyn Heights before he crashed and ran into the home of Peter Parker and his Aunt May and Uncle Ben. When the team arrived on the scene, Jackson had pulled Peter's Uncle Ben out of the house with a gun pointed at his head. Ben tried to wrestle the gun from him but it went off, killing Ben in the process. Reed ordered Thing and Invisible Girl to chase after Jackson, but they lost him. After they heard that Spider-Man had found Jackson, the team reassessed whether Spider-Man truly had evil intentions or not.; When mad scientist Doctor Octopus had taken control of the Bellevue Atomic Research Center, the team were out on the case, leaving only Spider-Man to deal with the situation.; A few weeks later, the Fantastic Four experienced an intruder alert at the Fantastic Four Building that turned out to be Spider-Man. The team tried to fight him using their powers but all were overpowered by him, except for Invisible Girl. Peter revealed that he had actually wanted to join the Fantastic Four, but left when he realized that they believed the defamatory things the papers, like Daily Bugle, were saying about him.; Reed had felt guilty for years for having turned Ben into the Thing, so over time he began analyzing the mutagens and the exposure to cosmic radiation created in Ben's genetic structure. In doing so, he was able to synthesize an antidote. While he hadn't perfected it, Ben took a dosage of it, and after reacting to it violently, Ben did return to his human form. Unfortunately, it was short-lived and after Ben returned to his rock form, he angrily quit the team and declared he would never come back. Less than a few days later, Reed and Sue told Johnny that they had just gotten engaged. At that same time, Ben returned to the Fantastic Four Building with an unexpected guest. While walking around the local harbor, Ben found a homeless man who he thought looked familiar, he realized who it was and brought him back to the team where the man revealed himself to be the once-thought-lost Prince Namor of Atlantis. Namor cleaned himself up and revealed that he had self-imposed exile on himself when he led his people to defeat during the Sub-Mariner Wars 40 years earlier, an event that Reed's parents had recalled to him when he was young. Namor realized that the reason humanity won was because they cared little for their citizens and common folk, something that Thing pushed back on. Namor revealed that he was going to go back to Atlantis and decide whether to apply for the United Nations or continue their war with the humans.; ===Return of Doom===; The Fantastic Four were onboard a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier helping them deliver Namor back to Atlantis, but they all realized something was suspicious when they anchored more than 50 miles outside the Atlantic Ridge. Reed raised his concerns to the Admiral of the ship. Sue was also concerned so she broke Namor out of his secured cell on the ship.} It was then announced that Prince Namor had escaped the armed custody he was under and was heading for the flight deck. Ben and Johnny tried to find him to no avail. They then heard an announcement from Prince Namor himself saying that he was holding Sue captive and demanding control of the aircraft carrier. He successfully stole an aircraft off the ship and dove it into the ocean. When the team were arguing with Admiral Kiefer about why they were holding Namor captive in the first place, they were interrupted by the detection of Namor swimming towards them at super speed. Right before Namor could hit the ship, he was somehow taken captive by Victor von Doom aboard his submarine. Reed then explained to the rest of the team how he already knew Doom from their time at college, where Doom sustained his facial scarring after failing to listen to Reed's warnings about the device Victor had created that would allow him to teleport to the afterlife to retrieve his mother.; They all returned home to the Fantastic Four building to warn the world of Doom's return. While they were there, they saw a live broadcast of Doom announcing that he had kidnapped Spider-Man, who in reality was Peter Parker's classmate, Flash Thompson, who had retrieved Parker's suit from the trash when he had given up crime fighting in order to better care for his sickly aunt. Reed immediately recognized that Doom was live broadcasting from within the building, in Reed's lab. Doom revealed he had bought the Fantastic Four building and was going to kick them out. Reed and the rest of the team tried to save Doom's captive, but Doom warned them that Flash's restraints were connected to the building's power so if they tried to save him, he'd be killed via a switch by his assistance Dewbie.; They were interrupted by Flash's friends, Liz Allan and Betty Brant who had found out where Doom was keeping Flash, and told them the truth of his identity. Doom immediately ordered his assistant, Dewbie, to kill him, but he was saved by the real Spider-Man. The Fantastic Four went to go stop Namor's invasion of New York while Peter dealt with Doom, but he warned them that they had one hour to do so before the bombs he placed in the building would go off. The team drove through the city, rushing to get to Namor. They noticed that the U.S. forces were no match for the Atlantean amphibious machines that were coming ashore. Namor then came out of one of his ships and told them to follow him inside. They were then informed by Namor that he actually had peaceful intentions for Atlantis and was tricked by Doom into making his attempts at peace look like an invasion. Mister Fantastic was able to tap into the Pentagon's closed channels and warn them to call of the counter attack. They all then hurried back to the Fantastic Four Building to confront Doom. Thing was able to find and deactivate all the bombs Doom had placed in it. Luckily, Spider-Man had already stopped Doom and captured him. Namor then offered Sue a place next to him on the throne of Atlantis, but she declined, reaffirming her love for Reed.

+Notes: Both of the Fantastic Four's uniforms in Season 1 and 2 are based on their designs by John Byrne.; The Season 1 uniforms are depicted as a plain blue and white, with a black "4" logo. These uniforms were briefly featured in the Season 2 intro, where the Fantastic Four fought the Monster Android, implying that they are different to the uniforms used later on.; The Season 2 uniforms have the blue sections covered in heavy black shadows, with a blue "4" logo.; The Thing's uniform in Incredible Hulk removed the black shadows from the Season 2 designs, but made the blue sections darker.; The Season 2 intro also featured the Fantastic Four in their original Earth-616 uniforms, though this is more likely a homage to the original comic books.
+History:
+===Origin===; In his lab, Reed Richards noticed a phenomenon that came streaking into the Milky Way, appearing to move faster than the speed of light. Richards decided that he needed to look at it at a closer range, fearing it could pose a threat to the Earth. As he was about to board his rocket, his wife Susan Storm, her brother Johnny and Ben Grimm decided to accompany him into space.; When the phenomenon disrupted an unknown energy field, it resulted in normally harmless cosmic rays being altered. With all four unconscious, the damaged rocket's autopilot system was activated as it crashed back down to Earth. While the group survived the crash, they each developed their own unique powers. Sue gained the ability to turn invisible and create force fields. Ben was given enhanced strength at durability, at the cost of his body transforming into an orange, rock-like texture. Reed's entire body was now able to stretch and turn into different shapes, while Johnny gained the ability to cover his entire body in fire and fly. They all agreed to use their powers for the good of mankind, founding the Fantastic Four. Reed became Mister Fantastic, Sue called herself the Invisible Woman, Johnny was named the Human Torch and Ben referred to himself as the Thing.; ===Early Adventures===; Not many New York apartments were willing to have the four as tenants. One exception was the Baxter Building, at the cost of high rent. Their landlady, Lavinia Forbes, disapproved of Richard's experiments. Their first adventure resulted in the Fantastic Four facing off against the Puppet Master, with the Thing meeting his stepdaughter, Alicia Masters. Alicia became his love interest and an ally for the Fantastic Four.; From there, they met Namor, ruler of Atlantis, and went on Dick Clark's Scholarship Telethon, writing a book about their origin to help raise scholarship money for state university. Other adventures consisted of them stopping the Skrulls' invasion of Earth, preventing Galactus from devouring their planet. In the process, the Fantastic Four encountered the Silver Surfer, the Herald of Galactus. After the Surfer spent time with Alicia Masters, he decided to defend the Earth from his master. During this time, the Human Torch was guided to the Ultimate Nullifier by the Watcher. With the weapon in the hands of the Fantastic Four, Galactus agreed to spare the Earth, with the Surfer being exiled.; When the Skrulls realised they had been tricked by Mister Fantastic, Super-Skrull was created to combat them. The team managed to defeat their enemy and trapped him in a volcano. Doctor Doom, the Mole Man, Annihilus and Blastaar were among the other villains they faced.; As synthetic life energy began to affect Earth, the Fantastic Four used the Fantasticar to travel into space and investigate the source. Finding a damaged replica of Galactus' Star Sphere, the Silver Surfer tried to warn them of the trap, only for all five to discover Doctor Doom. With the Surfer in his hands, Doom stole his cosmic powers and overpowered the Fantastic Four. Returning to Earth, Doctor Doom destroyed the forged Sphere, with the Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer escaping before it exploded. After failing to restore the Surfer's powers, Mister Fantastic realised that they could use his exile to their advantage. Using the Fantasticar to steal Doom's crown, the team was pursued into space. With Galactus' barrier crossed, he soon arrived to investigate the matter, suspending Doom in place. After the Silver Surfer explained what had happened, Galactus restored his former herald's powers and sent Doom into the depths of space. With Galactus telling the Surfer that he had to return to his exile, the Fantastic Four returned to Earth with their ally.; ===De-powered===; Following Doctor Doom's return, he kidnapped the Invisible Woman, causing the rest of the Fantastic Four to search for her. On Island TR-5, the team fought against Doombots while trying to locate Susan. When they found her, attached to a neurostimulator, she revealed that Doom had set a nuclear bomb to go off at any second. With their ship destroyed by Doom, the Four were left trapped on the island as it exploded. While Sue managed to create a force field around them, they were left unconscious and rescued by a nearby U.S. Navy submarine. Discovering that the bomb's radiation had disabled their powers, Reed duplicated the neurostimulator to try and restore their powers. In the meantime, he developed suits that would act as substitute their powers, making sure that their enemies were unaware of their de-powered condition. Doom, enraged by their survival, took control of the Baxter Building and used Reed's biogenetic tracker to locate them. Once he began to attack the Fantastic Four, their suits were destroyed. They were rescued by Daredevil and gradually made their way to the Baxter Building.; Unable to fight back against Doctor Doom, the Four and Daredevil were trapped in a room with a modified ventilation system. As oxygen was taken out of the room, Ben Grimm managed to activate the neurostimulator, becoming the Thing once more and attacking Doom. As he crushed the tyrant's hands, the rest of the Fantastic Four's powers were restored and Mister Fantastic stopped the Thing from killing Doctor Doom. With his hands released, Doom destroyed fusion limiters from Reed's dimensional reactor. As Doctor Doom had his airship fire on the Fantastic Four, he boarded it and left. With the reactor beginning to create a minute tear in the space-time continuum, it threatened to reduce most of New York into cosmic dust. The Invisible Woman created a force field around the Baxter Building, saving New York, at the price of their home being destroyed.

Although the team were initially uncertain about this choice, both due to the circumstances of their origin and the fear that they would have to face both the FF's rogues and their own individual enemies, after Doctor Doom and Mephisto attacked them with the sacrifice of a new Frightful Four, the new Fantastic Four redeemed themselves in the public's eyes as they defeated this formidable group.; }

+Base of operations: New York City
+Equipment: Fantastic Four Uniforms
+History:
+The story of these Fantastic Four follows the same path of their Earth-13266 counterpart up to the point the Fantastic Four of Earth-616 arrived to this universe.; The Fantastic Four encountered Earth-616's Fantastic Four as they had to attend their Human Torch, whose powers were out of control (as well as those of his teammates) and couldn't flame off, and would die of dehydration in less than a day, and offered to help.; Using the device with which they took the essence of their powers, Mr. Fantastic started re-transferring their powers from Earth-616's Fantastic Four to them. But Ant-Man blew his cover as Doctor Doom's double agent when he used a stasis field into the Fantastic Four, causing them to stand still, in order to prevent them from interfering in Doom's plans. Earth-616's Fantastic Four convinced him to help them deactivate the field, using the temporal anomaly which was Jean Grey.; After rescuing Marvel Girl from Doctor Doom, who was using her as the blind spot she was for Kang, Earth-616's Fantastic Four managed to rescue the Fantastic Four and finish the power re-transfering, just in time as Doctor Doom became Doom the Annihilating Conqueror after stealing Kang the Conqueror's powers.; As the combined forces of both teams of Fantastic Four failed to defeat Doom, Earth-616's Mr. Fantastic suggested to combine their powers. But as the Fantastic Four's bodies weren't conditioned to receive extra powers, Earth-616's Fantastic Four decided to be the ones who had their abilities enhanced. With their powers augmented, Earth-616's Fantastic Four faced Doom, and ultimately defeated him when he was hit with and scattered across time and space by the Fantastic Four's time/space ship.; Using the device for a final time, the Fantastic Four recovered their powers from Earth-616's Fantastic Four. While Earth-616's Fantastic Four recovered for two days from the re-transferral, the Fantastic Four built a statue homaging them. After fully recovered, Earth-616's Fantastic Four bid farewell and returned to their reality.

The group successfully stole the rocket and were bombarded by Cosmic Radiation causing it to crash. Each discovered they had gained an amazing ability and they became the Fantastic Four though the group then pretended to forget the whole thing and return to their normal lives.; Reed reformed the group to defeat the Mole Man and when the Skrulls impersonated them, they were arrested for the theft of the rocket. They escaped prison and used their Skrull impersonators to take the blame for their crimes. Johnny left the team, discovered and restored Namor who used Giganto to attack the surface world but he was defeated by the Thing with a nuclear bomb. The group were confronted by Doctor Doom who captured the group and sent Ben, Johnny and Reed back in time to the 17th century to obtain the lost Infinity Stones. Ben became the pirate "Thingbeard" and they discovered a time traveling adult Franklin Richards.

Doom and Namor allied to defeat the Foursome but when Doom betrayed him, Namor saved them.; The Thing fell under the control of the Puppet Master but was saved by Alicia Masters. Mister Fantastic then found they had run out of money so worked with Namor to make a movie, which was a financial success.

The Fantastic Four were then confronted by the Impossible Man, the Hulk, Red Ghost and his Super-Apes, Mad Thinker and his Awesome Android before they too are shrunk and discover Doctor Doom ruled a microscopic kingdom but he was stopped with the help of Ant-Man.; The Fantastic Four were captured by Namor, who had found his people, and he sent his Atlantean Army to the surface and they conquered New York. They were defeated when Mister Fantastic found a way to remove the water from their helmets and defeated Namor in combat. They then traveled to ancient Egypt to find a cure for the Thing's condition but were captured by Rama-Tut. They defeated him and returned to the present where they faced the Molecule Man and then the Hate-Monger before Spider-Man attempted to join the team but they rehected him.; Doctor Doom returned but was defeated, the Infant Terrible attacked New York and was forced to apologize by his parents, before they faced the Hulk again, who was driven off by Ant-Man's Ants. The Puppet Master and the Mad Thinker teamed up to trick the Fantastic Four into fighting the X-Men but they figured out the trick and defeated the pair. The Red Ghost and his Super-Apes returned but was defeated with the help of the Watcher. Diablo tricked the Thing into siding with him but he turned on Diablo and saved his friends.

+History:
+Little was detailed about the Skrull Fantastic Four before the zombie plague arrived on the Skrull Home-world of Reality-2149, though they may been deliberately created after the Skrulls were unable to recreate Super-Skrull.; While in the catacombs beneath the Skrull city, Lyja bumped into Johnny Storm who, along with the rest of the new Fantastic Four, had been targeted as threats. As they attacked, Skrull Torch was zapped by Storm. Elastic Skrull threatened to suffocate Black Panther but was electrocuted for his troubles. Meanwhile, Skrull Thing got clobbered by Thing.; Lyja held Johnny in a force grip, while T’Challa and Storm explained that the zombies who had come from the sky had nothing to with them, and they wanted to help. The eight of them then made their way to the Skrull Command Centre.; When a zombified Luke Cage burst into the Command Centre, the new Fantastic Four and Skrull Fantastic Four attacked. But finding the zombie to be extremely powerful, they decided to fall back to an escape ship. With Cage in hot pursuit the Skrull Fantastic Four had no choice but to defend the others as they made their escape. But even as the ship took off, they were fighting a losing battle, and became infected.; The newly zombified Skrull Fantastic Four watched the escape ship unexpectedly lose power and crash back to the ground, at which point they tore through the hull, and faced the new Fantastic Four. They didn’t come out of it well. Lyja decapitated. The Elastic Skrull was first electrocuted, then stabbed with an energy blade, and finally torched to a crisp. Skrull Thing was encased in molten metal. The Skrull Torch was impaled on a spike and then blasted by a Power Cosmic Luke Cage.

+Created by: Jeph Loeb; Rob Liefeld
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Created when Franklin Richards attempted to flee an attack from Onslaught by creating another pocket universe to escape into.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Baxter Building
+History:
+Some time ago, Franklin Richards, in a bid to save his family the Fantastic Four and their allies from destruction when they sacrificed their lives to destroy Onslaught, he created a pocket universe for them to exist in where they were "reborn" into new lives similar to their past ones. Eventually, through intervention of the Celestials, Franklin would bring his parents and their allies back home. Ultimately this Earth would also be transported into the Earth-616 reality and be placed on the opposite side of the sun and be dubbed Counter-Earth.; Following M-Day, the combined mutant energies that were exorcised from the mutant population by the Scarlet Witch would lead to the rebirth of Onslaught. Onslaught would seek revenge against Franklin Richards, whom it held responsible for his defeat.; In order to escape Onslaught, Franklin would create a new pocket universe, this time escaping into it himself, however Onslaught would follow after the boy. Franklin would create a world very much similar to that of Counter-Earth, this time however instead of pulling his family and their allies into this reality, he instead created versions of them that copies of the "reborn" versions of themselves.; Like all Franklin's previous creation, the people populated in these worlds while existing suddenly have memories and a past that predate their existence. As such, it is presumable that the Fantastic Four of this world share a similar origin and past adventures as the original Fantastic Four experienced when they were "reborn" (See Fantastic Four (Heroes Reborn).); When Franklin first arrived on this new Earth, he would be chased by Onslaught and would seek out the aid of the Fantastic Four and the Avengers. Although they doubted Franklin's claim to be their son from an alternate universe, with the real threat of Onslaught, the Fantastic Four and Avengers would work together with the Masters of Evil to destroy Onslaught. In the end, they would succeed in knocking Onslaught into the Negative Zone, although Bucky would sacrifice herself to accomplish this goal.; With Onslaught defeated Franklin would return to his native reality just moments before he left, leaving the Fantastic Four and the other beings of his new reality to live new lives.

+Created by: Bill Everett
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile on Earth, previously Pluto (supposedly)
+Weapons: The Fatalists were armed with death-ray devices that could kill living creatures with a single shot. The weapons appeared to have a lesser effect on those with enhanced strength, merely stunning Namor in a weakened state and completely ineffective against the hero at peak strength.
+History:
+The Fatalists were apparently beings that came from the planetoid Pluto, and were sent to Earth in 1955 to try and sell death-rays to world governments in a plot to wipe out the Human race, presumably to take over the planet. However, despite the fact that the world was going through the Cold War, no government was interested in purchasing the guns, realizing that their destructive power could cause planetary extinction.; Learning of the Fatalists' mission but not believing their Plutonian background, Betty Dean summoned her sometime ally the Sub-Mariner to help stop them before they found a government willing to buy the destructive weapons. Namor, not seeing these beings as a threat to Atlantis, refused to do so.; Namor began to question his judgement when he was approached by the Fatalists, who sought to sell him the weapons. Refusing to be part of their plans, Namor attacked, but was blasted by one of their death-rays. The Fatalists then tossed Namor in the ocean, unaware that the waters would revive him. The Fatalists then went to a nearby island nation and kidnapped the ruler's son in order to ransom him, threatening to kill the boy if his father did not purchase their weapons.; The ruler, like all other world leaders, refused to buy them for the same reasons even at the risk of losing his son. The boy, however, was saved by Namor, who used the death-rays to seemingly slaughter the Fatalists, who survived and were last seeing being pulled back into the air, supposedly back to Pluto to face their rulers' wrath for their failures.; Namor recovered the death-rays in hopes of using them to conquer the surface world, but found that they no longer worked. The Fatalists have not been seen since, and the so-called Plutonians seemingly abandoned their conquest attempts.

In his clearer moments, the Thing knew he needed help and was trying to get back to Richards, but whenever people saw him and react to him like he's a monster, he inevitably lost his temper and began acting like one.; When the Thing arrived in New York, his rampage disrupted the routines of Peter Parker, Donald Blake, Tony Stark, and Bruce Banner at critical times that happenned to prevent the origins of their own superheroic personas. Stark and Banner have been tasked to build an anti-Thing weapon that was almost ready to fire when the Fantastic Three made their debut in an attempt to talk Ben down first. However by then, the Thing was too angry to listen to reason and fought the trio off until Stark and Banner's gun was ready and fired. The cosmic radiation of the weapon was meant to cure the Thing, but it failed and mutated him further while generating feedback that robbed the other three of their powers instead. The resultant explosion knocked everybody present unconscious except Ben, who lumbered off morosely intending to stay hidden from then on. When everybody else came to, they assumed the weapon atomized the Thing. With him presumed dead, a world deprived of many of its major heroes continued on an uncertain path.

+Following the disappearance of Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman, the Fantastic Four disbanded. One of the Fantastic Four's foes, the Mad Thinker, interpreted Reed Richards' absence as a calling to fill the void he left. Calling himself Mister Fantastic and adopting a hairstyle like Richards', the Mad Thinker gathered a trio of hired muscles and raided the laboratory of Rachna Koul. Using Koul's equipment, the Mad Thinker bestowed himself and his partners powers similar to those of the original Fantastic Four. The other three members became Goodfire, Lumen, and Smash.; When Koul returned to her laboratory, she stumbled into the Thinker's Fantastic Four. He stole the Multisect from her and used it to take his new team to an alternate universe where the Human Torch and The Thing had become stuck during a multiversal journey in the search for their family. The Mad Thinker intended to eliminate them to consolidate his team, since he believed they needed to declutter the void left by the Fantastic Four from its remnants. Despite the fact that both the Human Torch and The Thing were powerless, they managed to hold their own against the Thinker's team and escaped.; The duo regained their powers before their second encounter against the new Fantastic Four, and easily defeated the villain and his pretenders. Before returning home with The Thing and Mad Thinker's team, Johnny left the villain stranded in this reality, stripped of the equipment that simulated Mister Fantastic's powers, and encouraged him to fill the void of that world's Reed Richards and act selfless. Following the return of the real Fantastic Four, Mister Fantastic visited this universe to retrieve the Mad Thinker, believing it was only a matter of time before he'd only grow to torment this reality's inhabitants.

+History:
+The Fantastix were a newly created team of super heroes consisting of 2-D, Hope, Iceberg, and Ms. Fantastix who were formerly members of the team the Liberteens. The four members of the Fantastix moved from Philadelphia to New York City in order to obtain ownership of the famous Baxter Building, headquarters of the superhero team the Fantastic Four, at a time when the Fantastic Four appeared to be missing. The group of young heroes hoped to hoped to become "the next Fantastic Four".; The Fantastix hired a teenager named Brenda Bannicheck as their manager and publicist, and their first mission as a team consisted of stopping the evil Wrecking Crew from robbing Wilkinson's & Sons Jewelry right across the street from the Baxter Building. During the battle, however, the original Fantastic Four returned to Earth and the Fantastix learned that Brenda Bannicheck had actually staged the robbery situation in order to garner the team publicity. The Fantastix fired Bannicheck, but the Fantastic Four allowed the teenage Fantastix to retain their new ownership of the Baxter Building.; Despite initially seeing themselves as a knock-off Fantastic Four team, the Fantastix decided to create their own identity through being heroes in whatever ways they could. They performed many small acts of service, helping citizens with their problems, and even fought a new minor supervillain calling themself the "Skrulltastic One". The Fantastix saw little action subsequent career, mostly due to being stand-ins for the Fantastic Four while the Fantastic Four were around. When the powerful alien Cormorant scoured the Earth in search for a mysterious artifact, he unceremoniously destroyed the entirety of the Baxter Building to unearth a hidden lockbox called Container Zero. When the Fantastic Four, Doctor Doom, and Victorious arrived to confront the Cormorant, the Fantastix joined the fight. After the destruction of Container Zero ended with the creation of a portal dubbed the Forever Gate and the Cormorant left, Mister Fantastic decided to reclaim what was left of the Baxter Building so his team could guard the portal. Despite being offered to help carry this duty, the Fantastix decided to leave it all to the Fantastic Four.

+Created by: Roger Stern; John Byrne
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Originally Rocky Mountains, Colorado; later Carmody Institute
+Transportation: Skrull Scoutship, various conventional automobiles, aircraft and spacecraft. Some of their vehicles may have been provided by Major Mercury.
+History:
+===Origins===; The First Line was a group of super-heroes who were active from the 1950s until the 1980s. Their roots began in 1953, when engineer Patrick Carney began working at Operation: Deep Freeze, the project that kept the 1950s Captain America and Bucky in stasis, compelling him to hope that someone would take the place of his childhood hero. One night while driving home, he nearly ran over Cassandra Locke, a time traveler from the 22nd Century of Earth-700 who had been traveling through the Cold War era to learn what she could about Earth's interactions with Skrulls during the end of the 20th Century. Fatally wounded, Locke told Carney of his future destiny and the threat of the Skrulls, passing along her data disc and telling him to hide it aboard the Apollo 11 rocket that was destined to land on the moon in the future, so that the people of her era could recover it. Locke died while being treated in a charity hospital, passing along her time traveling Tachyon Belt to Carney. Although Carney could not activate its time travel capabilities, he learned how to use it to boost his strength and became the costumed hero Yankee Clipper.; Yankee Clipper was the founder of the First Line, taking the name as he believed that the group was America's "First Line of Defense" against those who would endanger the country. The founding members included the costumed crime fighters Black Fox, Liberty Girl and the precognizant healer known as Nightingale. The group was formed when the heroes were gathered by Defense Department agent Jacob Scott, who unknown to them was a Skrull spy named Velmax who had been stranded on Earth since 1947 and been gathering information for an impending Skrull invasion and was using his position in the Defense Department to locate his ship after it was taken into government property. They went to investigate a "security breach" and encountered the Monster Hunters who had detected a monster in the area. While the team battled the mutated humans, "Scott" attempted to secure the ship and found it about to be stolen by another Skrull spy along with criminals Blackjack and Scythe. The spy escaped and Velmax was blasted by the ship's defenses, causing him to shift back to his Skrull form. After being healed by Nightingale, Velmax pretended that the defense system had mutated him like the monster they fought earlier, joined the group taking on the name Effigy, and brought the group into official standing with the United States government. After this mission, Black Fox decided to retire from heroics to marry his girlfriend Miriam. However, when she was murdered before his eyes by the villain named Nocturne, the Black Fox returned to the group darker and grittier than before.; ===1960s===; By the spring of 1961, the team added the Eternal Pixie to their ranks. Also joining the team as an honorary member was Yankee Clipper's brother Tim, who went under the name Kid Justice. Upon hearing the news of the United States' plans to launch a rocket to the moon by the end of the decade, Yankee Clipper confided in his kid brother to carry out the mission Cassandra charged him with in the event that something happened to him. The group were dispatched to San Francisco where they assisted the Hipster in battling the Yellow Claw who was attempting to manipulate the amnesiac Sub-Mariner in one of his attempts at conquering the world. The group foiled Yellow Claw's plans unaware that they were being observed by Cassandra Locke. Accepting defeat, Yellow Claw detonated his base seemingly slaying himself and Sub-Mariner, but both later resurfaced alive. Cassandra flipped backward in time, the blast seriously injuring her and sending her to her fateful meeting with Patrick Carney almost a decade into the past. The team was saved from the explosion thanks to Yankee Clipper's belt creating a force-field.; In late 1963 Kid Justice was awarded full membership on the team and began training with Black Fox and Yankee Clipper. Pixie had also recruited Aboriginal Canadian strong man Sam Matonabee who later joined team as Oxbow. In addition to this, Effigy took on the role of leader. On November 21, Nightingale received a premonition that something was to happen the next day in Dallas Texas. Suspecting that President Kennedy might be in danger, the group flew to Dallas. There they clashed with two super-powered criminals: the shape-changing Chimera and the Howler. The pair were attempting to steal a newly developed guidance system that was developed by Stark Industries. While most of the team battled Howler, Effigy battled Chimera alone. On fatally wounding Chimera he learned that his foe was really his commanding officer Zuhn, who had been secretly recovering in a Skrull med-pod that was in the custody of the US military. By this time, Effigy had come to enjoy his life on Earth, putting him at odds with his mission, and he secretly disposed of Zuhn's body so nobody would suspect. While this was happening, Liberty Girl was mortally wounded by Howler. Cassandra Locke also appeared in this time, marking the first meeting between the First Line and the time traveller. The tachyon belts that both Locke and Yankee Clipper wore reacted when in close proximity sending both into the future. Effigy took control of the team and left Dallas, making the team unable to prevent Lee Harvey Oswald from assassinating President Kennedy.; In the mid-60s, the group expanded their ranks to include Pixie's fellow Eternal Makkari who operated under the name Major Mercury, the man-monster Frank and the flying Rebound. The group was later approached by the Asgardian thunder god Thor, who had been sent to Earth by his father Odin to deal with an impending crisis. This crisis turned out to be the work of Nazi war-criminal the Rumor who was using his powers to manipulate the Olympian love goddess Venus into turning children into an obedient army. The group stopped the Rumor with the assistance of Thor and the solo heroes Hippy (formally the Hipster) and Sunshine.; By 1969 the group expanded further to include Russian defector Katyusha, reformed criminal Blackjack, and the flame wielding Firefall. Having reached adulthood, Kid Justice -- having become dedicated to proving that he was as great a hero as his older brother -- changed his identity to Mister Justice. With the announcement of the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon, Justice used his leverage and government connections to have the data disc passed onto him by his brother to be planted on the Apollo lander. However this proved to be an unnecessary effort as Effigy had learned that Skrull spies were attempting to sabotage the Apollo mission to ruin the human race's faith in space travel. Effigy by this time had repaired his Skrull saucer to allow them to fly to the Moon and the team went to intercept the Skrulls. However the Skrulls had hired on human super-villains including Howler, Scythe, Positron, Typhoon and Axis. While Effigy went to confront his fellow Skrulls aboard their vessel, the First Line battled the villains. Having completely embraced his human identity, Velmax slew the other Skrulls and destroyed their ship, while Howler, Axis and Typhoon were slain in battle. With Positron and Scythe as their prisoners the First Line returned to Earth, with Effigy warning them of the danger of the Skrulls.; ===1970s===; In the following decade more super-heroes joined the ranks of the First Line, including the armour wearing Templar, energy wielding Vulcan, kinetic energy manipulator Reflex and the armored Flatiron. When the investigation into the Watergate scandal was beginning, some of the team went up against their old foe Nocturne who attacked the team with a group of Zombies disguised as the World War II heroes the Invaders and the Red Skull. Meanwhile, Nixon was pressuring the First Line to fall in line with his government, threatening Effigy and Black Fox the identities of the team would be revealed to the public if they were not kept in line. In order to get Nixon off their back, Black Fox convinced Effigy to shut the president down by revealing his involvement in Watergate. After much thinking Effigy did just that, becoming the informant known as Deep Throat who exposed Nixon's involvement to Washington Post writer Bob Woodward. Also during this turbulent time Templar retired from the group in order to get married. Later that decade, Black Fox and Pixie worked together with apprentice magician Doctor Strange to stop Nocturne from stealing the alchemy secrets hidden the castle of 19th century alchemist Diablo, they also prevented Diablo from escaping from his prison.; ===1980s===; Following the impeachment of Richard Nixon, the First Line went underground and operated on mostly covert missions. By the 80s, Positron had reformed and joined the team, starting a relationship with Blackjack. When Mr. Justice went to rescue American diplomats who were being held as prisoners in the Middle Eastern nation of Halwan he was captured and tortured. Effigy then sought out the help of the Eternal Brain to assist on a mission to rescue Mister Justice. During the mission, Blackjack was killed by the warrior Scimitar. Also during the battle the group was visited by Cassandra Locke who was still in the earlier stages of her investigation into the past. However, Mister Justice managed to escape on his own and the First Line was forced to retreat. Angry at the outcome of the mission the Black Fox quit the team and went into retirement.; With the Eternal Brain joining the group, they were invited to use the Carmody Institute as their secret headquarters. At some point during this period the team battle the time traveling Kang the Conqueror although the details of this battle are unknown. The group also expanded further including the hair growing Rapunzel, the Inhuman Yeti and the shape-shifting Morph. The Eternal Brain also began growing a new body and built the robot Walkabout in order to fight with the team, hidden inside the robot's massive frame. The group's base was infiltrated by CIA agent Nick Fury as well as an army of Deviants led by Warlord Kro who had come seeking to kill Pixie. During the battle with the Deviants, the team was visited once more by Cassandra Locke at one of the earliest points in her trips through time. After the battle was over, she warned the team of the impending Skrull invasion of Earth. However when they questioned the authenticity of her claims she decided to travel further back in time to try and see what she could do in the past to prevent the invasion from succeeding. Sometime later, the Yeti left the team for reasons that are unknown. He went to live in solitude in the Himalayas mountains outside of the Inhumans' Great Refuge.; A few years later, members of the First Line battled Nocturne again, this time in New York City's Baxter Building where Nocturne had created a alchem-tech virus that threatened to consume the city. However, the team destroyed the virus and seemingly slew Nocturne, but not before the top seven floors of the building were destroyed in the process. Also during this time, as part of their invasion plans, a female Skrull was sent to seduce the Yeti, the purpose of this plot is unspecified, but was likely a means to stop the team from interfering with their invasion plans. Meanwhile, a Skrull spy captured by scientist Reed Richards was turned over to Effigy for questioning, who learned of the impending invasion. During this time the group included the mysterious Doctor Mime. In 1986, the Yankee Clipper reappeared, having been launched forward in time from 1963. He was quickly reunited with his brother Mr. Justice and the rest of the team. However, finding himself a man out of time Clipper decided to retire and accustom himself to the future time he found himself in, Pixie came to his aid to help him fit in.; When the invasion finally came, the First Line gathered all their surviving members past and present as well as their various foes to work together to stop the invasion, boarding the mothership in an attempt to stop it. Among those involved in the battle included Nightingale, Flatiron, Reflex, Oxbow, Pixie, Mister Justice, Black Fox, Firefall, Positron, Templar, Effigy, Vulcan, as well as new additions Squire (the son of Templar), Gadfly the mutant daughter of Hippy and Sunshine, the biologically engineered Atlantean warrior Mako and the foul mouthed Riot-Act as well as their old foe Nocturne. Also aboard the ship, fighting for the Skrulls was the Yeti. The battle was witnessed by Cassandra Locke who was arriving on her first jump into the past and witnessed the battle. Effigy was mortally wounded trying to set warp-feed phase-shifters to destruct. Dying he reverted back into his Skrull form before Pixie and Oxbow telling them he tried to be a good American before he died. Pixie then set the destruct sequence, the resulting explosion destroyed the entire alien fleet and seemingly slew all those who had not already died in battle.; ===Legacy===; With the death of the First Line, the people of Earth believed that the group simply vanished without a trace, unaware of the fact that they saved the world. The Daily Bugles J. Jonah Jameson referred to the group as "cowards" for suddenly disappearing.; However, although the team was decimated there were a number of survivors. This included Yankee Clipper who was not present during the battle and have apparently remained in retirement. The Yeti managed to escape back to Earth and resumed living in solitude in the Himalayas. Due to her nature as an Eternal, Pixie survived the exploding ship and returned to Earth. Also surviving was the Eternal Brain, who was seemingly slain, but survived because he was also secretly an member of the Eternals. Also alive is the Eternal Makkari, who was also not present during the battle. It is possible that Frank might in all actuality be the original Frankenstein's Monster, however any connection between the two is speculative at best at this time.; A number of members of the First Line are unaccounted for, and their fates are unknown, such as Reflex, who was seen during the final battle but his ultimate fate is unknown, and he may have survived and escaped prior to the Skrull ships exploding. The fates of Rapunzel, Doctor Mime, Morph, Katyusha and Rebound were not present in the final battle, and their fates are unknown.; In at least the future of Earth-700, the data collected by Cassandra Locke was placed on the Apollo 11 mission by the First Line ended up in the hands of Cassandra's lover Eugene Omega-20 who exposed that the Skrulls of that era were still plotting to conquer the Earth under the auspices that they were trying to forge peace.

But he, Kkallakku, and Nox were defeated by Strange, Clea, and Rintrah.; D'Spayre then challenged the Dweller in Darkness and Nightmare to try and out do one another, offering to assist the victor. In actuality, their combined torment caused human despair which empowered D'Spayre. Nightmare and Dweller in Darkness fled. A 'man without fear' was needed, so Daredevil was summoned by the Straw Man (who had formed another body) to help the others. They managed to defeat D'Spayre.

+History:
+In the House of M reality, Victor Von Doom found a crashed shuttle with the bodies of Reed Richards, Susan Storm, John Jameson, as well as the still alive but monstrous Benjamin Grimm. He studied them for the cosmic radiation they contained. Through the use of magic, Doom was able to mimic the power of the radiation and give it to his family.; His wife Valeria became the Invincible Woman, able to create shields and forms out of shadowy energy.; His ward Kristoff became the Inhuman Torch, burning with a mystic flame.; Doom was able to transmute himself into a metallic substance which could also stretch and morph.; Grimm was kept caged when not in action, and was referred to as It.; As Magnus and his forces rose to power, Doom and his group kept their status. His finest scientists worked on technologies the House of Magnus sought to use to keep the Sapiens in line, and the Fearsome Four would handle negotiations.; Doom often acted aggressively, such as destroying the Mole Man and his kingdom for the stores of Vibranium in his land. A dying Mole Man told Doom he only had a 'nicer cage than the other humans'. Doom's mother Cynthia also constantly berated Doom, telling him he should not bow to any mutant. Doom eventually became frustrated with Magneto's requests, which were becoming more and more like orders every day.; Magneto's request to find a place that could serve as a prison for those he did not wish to execute was the opening Doom needed. Doom found a dimension whose physics made superhuman powers useless, aside from the Four's magic-based powers. He hid this fact and quickly informed Magneto that he had found a suitable place. Doom did not realize that Grimm understood what he was plotting and treated him as just a mindless beast.; Magneto, Quicksilver, and Polaris were invited to go through the portal and see the area for themselves. Doom hoped to kill them and then take over, explaining that a horrible accident had occurred.; Magneto and Quicksilver entered and were quickly defeated. Polaris managed to escape and call for the House's forces to help. Doom quickly murdered the scientists who had worked on the portal so any loyalists would not free Magnus and Pietro. However, It secretly freed Magneto and Quicksilver. In retaliation Grimm was blasted out of the castle by Valeria.; Magneto easily disabled Doom's metal form. Doom woke up to see Kristoff and Valeria had been killed--impaled by a number of metal objects. He also saw Cynthia groveling at Magneto's feet, claiming she was always loyal and that her son was just a greedy fool.; Magneto agreed to leave Doom alone and ruined, and offered Cynthia asylum. Doom was left with a feeling of utter disgust with himself. He was still given an invitation to Magnus's party.; Meanwhile, Grimm found himself lying in a tunnel where members of the human resistance found him.

Torch later regained his strength, burned through the cage, and flew away. The natives tried to seize him again, but the Torch continued flying into a nearby volcano, where he triggered an eruption. The eruption caused the natives to evacuate their village, and the resulting lava destroyed all of their potion.

+Transportation: Thunderbird
+History:
+===Origin===; The Strucker Twins Andreas von Strucker and Andrea von Strucker were the children of Nazi supremacist Baron Wolfgang von Strucker, who saw great potential in their future. While still in-utero, the children were bio-engineered by Dr. Arnim Zola to have superpowers, using the X-Gene with each gaining the ability to fly and fire beams of concentrated plasma as long as they were in physical contact, usually accomplished by holding hands.; ===Fenris Twins===; Now known as the Fenris Twins, like their father, the twins are white supremacists, have great sympathy for the Nazi agenda, and strive for the Fourth Reich. The two came into conflict with the X-Men. While on safari, Storm interrupted Andreas' attempted assault on a native woman in Africa. Andrea retaliated for Storm's humiliation of her brother by shooting her in the head and leaving her to die.; The Strucker twins despise Magneto for his role in their father's seeming death some years after World War II. They conducted acts of terrorism and finally attacked Magneto during his trial in Paris by the International Court of Justice for his crimes against humanity. The X-Men foiled their assassination attempt, but Fenris managed to escape by allowing themselves to be swept into the old city sewers.; ===Assembly of Evil===; The twins joined the Assembly of Evil. The Assembly confronted a small contingent of Avengers who were holding a press conference regarding the "Acts of Vengeance." The Avengers defeated the Assembly with the help of Cloak and Dagger, who had only agreed to join the villains so they could foil their plans. The Assembly was remanded to custody and the various members have never since banded together again.; ===Madripoor===; At a certain point, the twins were informed by Moira MacTaggert (possessed by the Shadow King) that Forge and Banshee wanted to search and reunite the defunct X-Men. They explode their plane, injuring only the pilot, Cylla Markham, later recruited by Donald Pierce.; Fenris living in Madripoor met with Matsu'o Tsurayaba, the new leader of the Hand. Black Widow was sent to investigate the meeting taking place on a yacht docked at the harbor. Working with Wolverine they infiltrated the yacht and take out the gangsters, but find out they are impostors: the real meeting took place somewhere else in the meantime.; ===Excalibur===; The twins traveled to the UK where they blackmailed Mesmero into using his powers for them. He took control of Excalibur to attack Fenris. Kitty Pryde was training as a cheerleader close by and left in the middle of the routine to help her team. After some debating, the other girls decided to help and used their hockey sticks that take out Fenris.; ===Crime Lords===; The twins joined a conference of powerful criminal leaders who intended to divide up the empire left by the fallen Kingpin. Among the members of the conference were Slug, Hammerhead, Tombstone and their sibling Werner von Strucker. The twins did not believe Werner was actually their sibling. This, and other arguments, caused the conference to degenerate into a shouting, shooting and blasting match. Fenris attempted to kill Hammerhead but he was rescued. Their sibling is soon after killed by their father, who had attended the conference disguised as the assistant to Werner.; ===Upstarts===; They would later join of group of mutant millionaire supervillains known as the Upstarts, led by the telepathic Gamesmaster, until they were defeated by X-Factor. The twins tried to acquire Omega Red for the Upstarts but failed. At the end of the Upstarts competition, The twins ultimately met their match when they tried to kill Wolfsbane, the former New Mutant. Along with her new X-Factor teammates, Wolfsbane easily beat the twins. But resurfaced against X-Force.; ===The Hunt Continues===; Fenris joined a group of villains as they battled the Canadian superhero team Alpha Flight. Still on the hunt for Magneto the team's search leads them into confrontation with Generation X. They find Magneto's son Quicksilver and plan to kill him in a revenge attempt against Magneto.; ===Kraken===; On Hydra Island, Andrea was bored with the peaceful island and wish for some excitement. This changed when Kraken came to visit. The Strucker twins reacted and joined forces, only for their father to stop them, stating that Kraken is an old friend.; ===Momentary Princess===; Jean-Luc sent his foster son, Gambit in Leipzig, famous archaeologist Sekmeht Conoway and Fenris, also hunted for the Momentary Princess, but while they all fought, the Princess disappeared again.; ===Citizen V===; The twins resurfaced where they were seen working with their father Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker. They fought Citizen V, though Andrea discovers that he is actually Baron Helmut Zemo. Having been decapitated by Scourge under orders of Henry Peter Gyrich, Zemo had survived when Techno, to Zemo's own surprise, transferred Zemo's mind into the comatose body of the second Citizen V, John Watkins III. Zemo quickly killed Andrea to keep her from telling anyone his secret.; ===Clone===; After Andrea's death, Andreas became the fourth Swordsman and joined the New Thunderbolts. By tanning his sister's skin and using it as the grip on his sword, he was able to maintain the powers he shared with her as a part of Fenris. A clone of Andrea created by Arnim Zola and commissioned by her brother. This allowed him to regain his full powers.; ===Return===; Several years later, the twins returned to the world of the living and opened a club for villains named the Club Fenris. When questioned about their demise, the siblings had stated that their father "took care of that."; The twins later allied themselves with Ezekiel Stane who was secretly aiding Wakanda rebel leader Tetu. Black Panther managed to broadcast their secret alliance to the world and the villains were defeated by Luke Cage and his Crew.; The twins later aided Stane again in the kidnapping of a girl known as Asira and brought her to the Panther's old enemies the Azanians. Black Panther and his allies attacked the twins at their club and interrogated them about her whereabouts.; They were released shortly after and attended Kade Kilgore's auction event and bought Kade's newest model of nano-Sentinels. Andreas mentioned that their father said cloning Andrea would bring about irregularities and they also were still very close to each other. The twins were eventually stopped by mutants Quentin Quire, Benjamin Deeds, and Nathaniel Carver.; ===Krakoa===; The Fenris twins later joined forces with Shinobi and Sebastian Shaw as sponsors for Krakoan medicine. As thanks, Shinobi made the Fenris twins the new Black Knights.; The twins seemed to like it on Krakoa and volunteered to combat the depowered mutant Callisto in the Crucible, but she refused and called the twins racists. The twins were saddened by this and claimed not to have killed anyone since arriving on the island.; The twins later tried to offer their money to fund X-Corp but were denied by Angel and M. The twins tried to tell M that they are hypocrites for claiming all mutants are allies now but M instead reminded the Fenris twins of their past. The Fenris twins later had a meeting with researcher Sara St. John.; The Fenris twins decided to form an alliance with St. John and Jean-Pierre Kol, the former head of the organization Noblesse. Together, they infiltrated X-Corp's floating headquarters and killed Multiple Man. The twins later confirmed they also wanted to build an empire on the bones of human companies, but just not to share it with the rest of mutantkind. They also planned to murder the rest of X-Corp and time it so the mutant resurrection would be unable to restore Warren and M's memories of the attack.; They launched a final attack and managed to destroy X-Corp's building. The twins and Sara escaped and were contracted to join Orchis.; ===Orchis===; The Fenris twins aided Orchis in attacking Krakoa, in an attempt to free the murderous mutants into Krakoa's prison known as the Pit. However, they were surprised by a chance encounter with Bishop, Tempo and their students.; After a fight, the Fenris twins captured the mutants Amass and Cam Long. A combination of Blightswill caused the two to merge into a monster and they even absorbed Andreas too. The remaining students managed to free their friends and Andreas and trap both the Fenris twins in the Pit.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: La Hacienda
+History:
+In 1513 AD, Juan Ponce de León led on behalf of the Spanish Empire led the first known European expedition to La Florida. He landed with his Conquistadors somewhere along east coast, then charted the Atlantic coast down to the Florida Keys and north along the Gulf coast. He travelled there to find the legendary Fountain of Youth. A group of Conquistadors found the Fountain of Eternal Youth in the Florida swamps. The initial group that drank the water were transformed into the ogre-like immortal beings called the Fathers. The remaining members of the party bathed in the water instead, and gained immortality in return for their emotions, but were not physically changed like the Fathers. They founded the village of La Hacienda at the site of the Fountain, and when they discovered they could not leave their village without losing their immortality, they stayed in La Hacienda and cut themselves off from the rest of the world.; ===Modern Age===; In the Modern Age, the Man-Thing inadvertently caused chaos at la Hacienda when it was provoked by Conquistadors trying to capture it. The encounter led to the rapid aging and death of one Conquistador due to the depletion of life-preserving energies within him. Subsequently, a villager named Lorena used the Fountain's waters to momentarily restore the Man-Thing's human hand, but disruptions by outsiders like F. A. Schist and Professor Slaughter halted the process. Schist's misguided attempt to control the waters transformed him into an "ogre," causing chaos until he perished in flames during a struggle with the Man-Thing. The incident prompted the Fathers of la Hacienda to cease transforming outsiders, and the Man-Thing, regaining strength, retreated into the swamp.; Later Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk, was reverted to her human form by the Fountain's waters after an encounter with an alligator in the Citrusville swamp. Accepting her transformation, she integrated into la Hacienda but faced challenges, including the death of a villager due to an alligator attack. Leading the villagers in constructing a protective barrier against gators led to condemnation by the Fathers initially. However, Jen's impassioned speech advocating for a more enriched life persuaded the villagers and the Fathers to shatter the Fountain. The people of la Hacienda chose a more fulfilling existence over eternal youth.

It is told that for many centuries the Fire-Men were charged with the responsibility of protecting the human race from the Fire-Monsters. In the late 1930's, a wealthy man named Ronald was on a scientific expedition and got separated from his team. He was rescued from the mountains by the Fire-Men and learned all of their secrets.; He eventually returned to his home in New York City, where he was -- or so has been accused of -- attempting to use the Fire-Men's secrets to use against humanity. This brought members Kalif and Culfra to their temple in New York. When they destroyed the home of Ronald, they clashed with the android Human Torch who failed to prevent Kalif from slaying Ronald.; Invited to the temple to talk, Kalif attempted to explain to the Torch the reasons why he slew Ronald and the role of the Fire-Men. The Torch did not believe him until he dropped into a pit with one of the Fire-Monsters, whom the Torch single-handedly destroyed. Now believing Kalif, the Human Torch lent his services to their aid.; The threat of the Fire-Monsters hit New York when a series of crimes involving the creatures struck the area. As it turned out, Fire-Men member Culfra was using the beasts to carry out his crimes hoping that the Human Torch would be blamed for them. When Kalif learned the truth, Culfra fatally shot him, but not before the Torch had his suspicions confirmed. The Human Torch destroyed the Fire-Monsters in Culfra's control and defeat Culfra, turning him over to the authorities to stand trial for his murders.; Culfam was placed in jail where he befriended the criminal known as the Parrot. Teaching the Parrot his knowledge of fire, the two attempted to break out of jail together. During the escape, the Parrot betrayed Culfam leaving him to be shot and recaptured by the prison guards. Later, while being interrogated by the Human Torch and Toro, Culfam attempted to warn the Torch of the Parrot's plans before dying.; The current activities of the remaining Fire-Men remain unrevealed.

+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Weapons: The Firing Squad were originally armed with tommy guns. However, when they were led by Danny Poll, they began wielding military rifles.
+History:
+In the year 1927, Private Danny Poll became jealous of his superior officer Lieutenant Callen due to their rivaling affections for a girl name Marie. Not liking being spoken down to by a low ranking officer, Callen started a fight. Mad with rage, Poll attempted to bash Callen's brains out with a rock, but the two were pulled apart by other military staff. For attempting to kill his superior officer, Poll was court-martialed and was spared the firing squad due to the fact that they were not in a war. Instead, Poll was sentenced to 15 years in solitary confinement. As Danny rotted in prison, he vowed to get revenge unaware that Callen married Marie, and the two actually attempted to get Danny freed from prison but were unsuccessful due to the red tape.; Danny was freed in the fall of 1942 and began thinking up how to get revenge against Callen for putting him behind bars. Unable to get the idea of a firing squad out of his head, Danny spotted a bank robbery in progress and noted the mobsters' sloppy execution. Thinking he could train the crooks to be more efficient, Danny jumped on the back of their vehicle and rode to their farmhouse hideout. There, Danny found that one of the mobsters carelessly left his tommy gun in the car. Entering the house, he overheard an altercation brewing between the mobsters and their boss who insisted on taking 50% of their haul even though he did nothing on the job. Danny burst in and shot the mob leader dead, then made the gang an offer they could not refuse: Let him give them military training to make them more efficient, and he will split all of their ill gotten gains evenly. The mobsters accepted the offer and the Firing Squad was born.; After extensive training and creating their own uniforms, the Firing Squad robbed a bank. They were opposed by the Angel, but they managed to escape. However, Danny managed to accidentally drop his wallet at the scene of the crime. The Angel used this to track Danny down to his room at the Hotel Regent. There, the hero clashed with the Firing Squad but was tossed out of the 10th floor window of the hotel room. Danny then began plotting his next scheme: This one targeting Callen (now a Major) who recently inherited his family's fortune. Knowing that Callen now had a son, he intended to kidnap the boy for ransom and then murder Callen when the ransom was paid.; Unaware that the Angel had survived and overheard this, the Firing Squad had to face the hero and the police at the Callen home. During the fight, Danny was confronted by Marie, and this reunion -- plus the realization that she had married Callen and birthed the child he had come to kidnap -- distracted Danny enough to be captured by the authorities but the rest of his mob managed to escape.; When Danny was brought to court, the rest of the Firing Squad stormed the court house and freed their leader. They also managed to capture Cullen's son and make a clean getaway. They later sent a ransom note demanding that they get paid $50,000 for the safe release of the Callen child, the money to be delivered to their farmhouse by Callen himself. There, Callen was put through a mock trial and "sentenced" to death by firing squad. However, before they could execute Callen, the Angel once more intervened.; During the fight, the police arrived with Marie, and while the Angel sent Callen and his son to safety, Marie confronted Danny. When Danny attempted to shoot Callen, Marie stood in the way of his bullets and was fatally wounded instead. Realizing the horrible mistake he had made, Danny then walked into the cross fire between his gang and the police and was mowed down. The Angel then helped the authorities round up the rest of the gang, who crumbled easily with their leader now dead.

+Notes: An unknown connection seems to exist between the Feeders and the Mummudrai, due to a number of parallels between them. Those infected by the Feeders endlessly repeat the phrase "Eat mind; " the only named Mummudrai, Cassandra Nova, introduced herself as "That which eats your mind." As well, Sublime likens the Feeders to a former ally of his whom he described as a "blind predator, stillborn in the sewers of a nightmare," an accurate description of Cassandra.
+History:
+The Feeders are a species of mental parasite that evolved on Earth in the 150 years following the extinction of humans. They exist only to propagate themselves by passing their infection from host to host, and once infected, the host loses all mental capacity except a drive to spread the infection. Sublime weaponized the Feeders in his final war on the mutant race, sending them to the Xavier Institute to infect the civilian mutants there. When the Institute self-destructed, it is assumed all the Feeders sent there were destroyed, too.

+Base of operations: Central City, California
+History:
+Harvey Jessup, a scientist from Central City, California, was colleagues with Reed Richards. While Richards went on to become the leader of the super-heroes known as the Fantastic Four, Jessup began using his expertise in nuclear energy to work for the Republic Oil and Gas Company (later known as Roxxon). When Jessup's manager pressured him to cut corners in the building of a nuclear reactor, Jessup refused and was then fired. With nuclear disarmament talks between the United States and Russia were not making any progress, Jessup became afraid that the world was going to be destroyed in a nuclear war. Harvey was later inspired when watching a new interview with the Fantastic Four, wherein Reed Richards expressed an interest in field-effect phenomena. This inspired Harvey to use F.E.P. to protect his people from nuclear attack. For the next six years, Harvey Jessup worked on a device he would later call the Salvation Machine. The intention was that the device would place a protective dome around Central City where time inside the dome would move slower than outside, eventually the dome would be dropped once it was safe to venture outside. When Jessup's invention was complete, he activated the device, surrounding Central City with a massive black dome that kept it separated from the outside world. Either by accident or design, the Salvation Device did the opposite it intended: It sped up time within the dome, so much so that for every second that went by outside an entire month passed within.; With fifty loyal technicians, Jessup rounded up the people of Central City and placed them in a state of suspended animation. Taking on the role of Great Coordinator, Jessup began advancing his society. Jessup maintained a centuries old life thanks to being placed in suspended animation, only being taken out when absolutely necessary. His followers formed a religion based on the Fantastic Four. They then began building up the city into a massive utopia. However, Harvey began to suspect something was wrong, but would not consider lowering the dome for fear that his theory of nuclear Armageddon proved to be true. Hundreds of years passed within the dome and it was eventually breached by the Avenger known as Iron Man, who remained within Central City, hunted by Jessup's minions for three weeks before escaping back outside. This prompted Jessup to create an army to defend his utopia, and engineered later generations into protectors of the realm: the Clobber Patrol, the Fire Patrol, the Wing Patrol, and Head Patrol. The patrols were based upon the Thing, Human Torch, Mister Fantastic, and the Invisible Woman respectively. The Fire Patrol were diminutive beings that could burst into flame, becoming amorphous fire balls at will.; Hundreds more years passed and the dome was breached by the She-Hulk, who had recently replaced the Thing as a member of the Fantastic Four at the time. Jessup had his minions subdue her, but his daughter Murna protested, realizing that there was something not right about her father's plan. In response, Jessup had Murna exiled and the She-Hulk placed in suspended animation.; After centuries had passed within the dome, the Fantastic Four and their ally Wyatt Wingfoot ended up breaching the dome to find their missing comrade, and discovered the civilization Jessup created within. After battling with the various patrols, the Fantastic Four were greeted by Princess Livia puppet ruler of the people. They were brought to the Grand Controller, who Richards had figured out was his old colleague. At first believing that they were impostors, Jessup decided to try and destroy the Fantastic Four instead of losing his position as a savior. The Invisible Woman was able to protect them with their invisibility powers and they were soon assisted in escaping by Murna. Murna in turn helped the Fantastic Four confront her father and free She-Hulk. During the ensuing battle against the Grand Coordinator, Murna was able to mind link Harvey with Reed Richards and force him to see the truth. Realizing the errors of his ways, Jessup agreed to let the people of Central City go free from suspended animation and go their own way with the Fantastic Four. Harvey died soon after, and the Fantastic Four freed Jessup's prisoners. Reed then used the Salvation Machine to send the future world of Central City deep into the future where it hopefully could thrive in peace.

+History:
+The Fem-Force was a small army of female operatives established by the Mandrill. All of them were mind-controlled by his pheromone-based powers. Wishing to gain new funds for his operations, the Mandrill send the Fem-Force to steal a gold store from an American military base.; Both the Fem-Force and the mercenary group Mutant Force (who had been hired by the Mandrill) attacked the military base of Las Animus, Colorado. They were repelled by a small group of Defenders who happened to be near the base at the time of the attack. However, Fem-Force managed to kidnap a somewhat inept member of the Defenders, Yellowjacket. The hostage was used as human bait to lure his would-be rescuers (Wasp, Hellcat, and Valkyrie into a trap.; Having captured all three female Defenders, the Mandrill attempted to brainwash them and to recruit them into Fem-Force. He eagerly appointed the Valkyrie as the new field leader of the team. For some reason, the Wasp resisted the mind-control attempt. She fled the Mandrill's base alongside another reluctant recruit of Fem-Force, a girl called Dian. The Mandrill was not concerned with their escape, and he send Fem-Force to attack Las Animus again.; The Mandrill and the captive Yellowjacket observed Fem-Force's attack from a safe distance. When Nighthawk managed to release Hellcat and Valkyrie from the mind-contoll, the women defeated all other members of Fem-Force and the Mutant Force. The Mandrill decided to flee to his other base in Central America. He launched Yellowjacket into the sky in a rocket, counting that the Defenders would choose to rescue their comrade rather than chasing after the villain.; After hiding for some time, the Mandrill send his Fem-Force to directly attack the Defenders. The women used an airship to approach Nighthawk's penthouse in preparation for a surprise attack. The women of Fem-Force were surprised that the hero currently present in the penthouse was Daredevil, rather than Nighthawk. They used a muscle paralyzer to incapacitate the blind hero, and then kidnapped him. The Mandrill was not interested in holding Daredevil captive, and he had his female operatives lock the defeated hero in a bank vault.; A group of Fem-Force operatives ambushed Hellcat when she returned to Nighthawk's apartment. She used her Shadow Cloak to evade captivity. Mandrill personally led another group of Fem-Force operatives to attack the courthouse during Nighthawk's trial. The women managed to recapture Valkyrie, but Mandrill decided to flee when his forces were attacked by nearly every active member of the Defenders.; Mandrill happily appointed the brainwashed Valkyrie as his second-in-command. Instead of attacking the Defenders again, the Mandrill decided that it was time for a more personal mission of revenge. He used Fem-Force to capture his own estranged parents, and he held his father at gunpoint. He then attempted to take over the nuclear plant where his father worked. Mandrill was surprised to see that the Defenders had followed him to the plant. The Mandrill tried to have his father exposed to lethal levels of radiation, but his efforts were repeatedly thwarted by the Hulk. When Mandrill tried to kill a seemingly depowered Bruce Banner, his own mother shot him in the back. With the Mandrill seemingly dead, Fem-Force was left leaderless.

+History:
+In 1966 during the Vietnam War, an American recon patrol in Cambodia stumbled upon the ancient, hidden temple of a cult known as the Dragon's Breath, which had remained hidden for centuries. It had been built upon a well-spring of raw, primal energy called the "Well of All Things". The inhabitants decided to breed a superior race that would one day unite with the ways of the west. They believed that this union would produce children capable of harnessing the power of the Well. The members of the recon patrol were to be the fathers of these children. Most of the patrol agreed to this plan. Diego Casseas, one of the other members of the recon patrol, now calling himself the Left Hand, stole the power of the Well from his own child.; Left Hand then gathered the other children of the pact into a group called the Folding Circle; Night Thrasher, Midnight's Fire, Silk Fever, and Bloodstrike, in addition to himself.; The New Warriors and the Circle joined up at the Cambodian temple where it all started. The Circle attempted to take control of the Well away from Tai, who intended to sacrifice everyone but herself in order to gain power. Both teams suffered losses, as Tai knocked out several of the more durable members. Tai was seemingly slain by an Uzi to the chest wielded by New Warriors leader Night Thrasher. Casseas also apparently died. The surviving members of the Circle escaped in an Avengers Quinjet, an aircraft originally stolen by the New Warriors. The remaining members of the Folding Circle later crashed in Madripoor and attempted to usurp the role of Aardwolf, a mutant crime lord. They succeeded, but were later taken down by Night Thrasher and Silhouette.; ===The Folding Circle===; Left Hand - (Diego Casseas), the leader of the Folding Circle, possesses the ability to manipulate Darkforce energies, a power he stole from his comatose daughter.; Bloodstrike - (Eric Conroy), is a mutate who worked as an enforcer for a Chicago crime family before being recruited into the Folding Circle. He possesses superhuman strength and durability.; Midnight's Fire - (Aaron Chord), is a mystical mutate possessing enhanced physical attributes and healing ability. He is the brother of Silhouette and an enemy of Night Thrasher.; Silk Fever - (Min Li Ng), originally joined the Force of Nature as the merciless killer Firewall. After being told the true source of her powers she joined the Folding Circle. Silk Fever is a mystical mutate with pyrokinetic powers, and her body appears to be on fire.; Smiling Tiger - (Conrad Mack), is a mystical mutate with enhanced senses. He only speaks in feral growls, and wears a bodysuit with razor sharp claws.; ==Infiltrators==; Night Thrasher - (Dwayne Michael Taylor), is a skilled martial artist who infiltrated the group in order to destroy it.; Silhouette - (Silhouette Chord), is a mystical mutate with the power to physically interface with the Darkforce dimension. Like Night Thrasher, she infiltrated the group in order to destroy it.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Oregon; Formerly:; Mobile
+History:
+Force of Nature were the super human operatives employed by the Project Earth organization. The team was sent to stop some land developers from destroying a large area of the Amazon Jungle.; The team consisted of Aqueduct, Firewall, Skybreaker, and Terraformer. They first came into contact with the New Warriors when members of Project Earth faked their disappearance as a publicity stunt.; Maddie Baldwin, Speedball's mother, was a member of Project Earth and when she went missing Speedball convinced the New Warriors to investigate. The team headed to the Amazon Rainforest to help Speedball find her. They were attacked and captured by the Force of Nature team.; Speedball offered to help the Force of Nature team until it became clear that they wished to do harm to the land developers. The Force was defeated and Project Earth abandoned them after an attempt to martyr Maddie Baldwin and blame the developers, but Speedball and the Warriors stopped them.; Project Earth helped the Force of Nature team leave prison and return to their jobs but Firewall left to join the Folding Circle.; The next fire element recruit was Firebrand. Force of Nature was sent to deal with oil fires in the war torn nation of Trans-Sabal, joining the ongoing conflict.; Project Earth recruited the New Warriors to pull the team out before their actions further damage their reputation. The Warriors entered the country but get wrapped in the conflict as well and the Force of Nature team was arrested and detained in the Vault.; Aqueduct, Skybreaker, and Terraformer were involved in a protest riot in the Vault over poor conditions. The authorities had no way to meet (or even negotiate) their demands due to the high level security to detain the superhuman inmates. Marvel Boy, who was in jail for a short sentence for killing his father, helped stop the riot by getting Terraformer to calm down and letting communicate through the plants in the warden's office. The warden agreed to grant privileges to certain inmates on a case by case basis, according to each prisoner, quelling the riot.; The Force of Nature returned to the criminal ways. Aqueduct joined the seventh incarnation of the Masters of Evil and later was recruited for government service by the Thunderbolts, to be part of the 50-State Initiative.; Min Li Ng also appeared as the Thunderbolt Silk Fever alongside her Folding Circle teammates.

+First appearance: Shogun Warriors Vol 1 1
+Created by: Doug Moench
+Species / origin: Lumina
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Shogun Sanctuary
+Equipment: Raydeen; Combatra; Dangard Ace; Keyhole-shaped communicator pendants.; Orbital satellite
+History:
+The Followers of the Light were members of the alien Lumina race who had committed themselves to preventing members of the alien Myndai race from continuing to control the planet Earth.; Approximately 175,000 years ago, members of the Myndai race came to Earth and conquered the planet. Believing that Earth being under the control of these Followers of Darkness meant that evil was running rampant on a defiled planet, some members of the Lumina race felt that a balance had been tipped and that they had to react. These Lumina, the first to call themselves the Followers of the Light, travelled to Earth where they fought the Myndai in the Great Chaos Wars that allegedly lasted for eons. The wars eventually ended with the defeat of the Followers of Darkness who were trapped in their underground base in a state of suspended animation.; With the immediate Myndai threat ended, most of the Lumina left Earth but a few Followers of the Light remained to act as sentinels against the possible revival of Lord Maur-Kon and his Dark Agents. These Followers built a fortress stronghold (later known as the Shogun Sanctuary) in a secluded mountain range in what is now Japan. To compensate for their diminished forces, the Followers used their advanced technology to create the three Shogun Warrior robots - Raydeen, Combatra and Dangard Ace.; At some point, the Followers began construction of a fourth robot but it was never finished and the incomplete frame was sealed away beneath the Sanctuary.; As the human race became intelligent, the Followers began to use their technology to monitor them and identify prospective warriors who would best be able to pilot the Shogun Warriors. However, since the Followers of Darkness remained asleep, generations of potential pilots never had to be summoned.; Eventually, in the early 21st century, Maur-Kon and his followers were awakened. Within hours, they resumed their attempt to claim Earth by creating the elemental monster Rok-Korr and sending it towards Tokyo on a mission of evil and destruction. The Followers of the Light reacted by summoning their three current warrior prospects to be their Agents of the Light. Although shocked to have been teleported to Shogun Sanctuary without warning, the three humans agreed to pilot Raydeen against Rok-Korr and managed a partial victory by decoying it away from the city. The Followers then showed the humans the other two Shogun Warrior robots and further testing determined which were the best pairings between the humans and the robots.; The Followers provided support to their Agents of the Light in their subsequent battles against the second monster created by the awakened Dark Agents, the Mech-Monster, and against the three monsters created by Doctor Demonicus.; Soon afterwards, the Followers of the Light were taken by surprise when a giant alien monster attacked Shogun Sanctuary. Basque, Charn and Sherna died before their Agents could arrive but Dr. Tambura survived long enough to urge them to continue on by themselves before dying. The Agents were able to use their Shogun Warriors to kill the monster when it attacked them, then they buried the bodies of the Followers in graves marked with ankhs on a mountaintop overlooking the ruins of Sanctuary.; A month later, the Agents of the Light and the Fantastic Four confronted the alien Primal One who had sent the monster that killed the Followers. During the battle, the Primal One was revealed to be nothing more than a high-tech avatar that Maur-Kon was using to conceal his identity. Once exposed, Maur-Kon was swiftly defeated and taken into custody by the Charter Federation forces that his false Primal One had summoned, under false pretenses, to help him destroy the Shogun Warriors.

+History:
+The Force Four are a team of four elite Kymellian sorcerers; some of the few Kymellians who have learned to master their powers. The young heroes Power Pack met them when they visited Kymellia II to attend the funeral for the Smartship Friday (who later turned out to be fine though). They had been ordered to hang around with the human children during their stay at Kymellia II. At first, the Force Four acted friendly towards the kids, showing them around Kymellia II and, along with Byrel Whitemane, teached them more about Kymellian history.; Later however, it turned out Power Pack had been set up by the Kymellian technocrat to face the Force Four in combat, under the guise of a training session. Despite their opponents only being children, Force Four did not hold back and attacked the team with all their strength (though Thunderhoof objected this approach, stating that they should not be fighting children). They captured Julie while she was in her cloud form, and trapped the other Power Pack members in a force field. However, Power Pack was able to turn the tides on them and eventually defeated the Force Four, much to the dismay of the technocrat.; Afterwards, the team sought out Power Pack to congratulate them on their victory and apologize for the fighting, stating they had no idea Power Pack was being tricked.

The Flight was able to stop him, despite the fact that Logan could barely control himself and that Smart Alec snapped under the pressure. In order to save the Flight, Saint Elmo had to sacrifice his life to absorb the explosion.; Due to the failure of his first efforts, Hudson revised his plans and created a tiered system for the Flight:; Alpha Flight - Active super-human response unit; Beta Flight - Training program; Gamma Flight - Initial training program

+History:
+The Flight was Canada's fledgling super-team.; As on Earth-616, the Flight was Canada’s fledgling super-team, founded by James MacDonald Hudson to be Canada’s version of the Avengers.

Without authorization, the Flight was pulled from training early by Hudson to combat the escaped Weapon X, whom they followed across the entire country of Canada. Not fully trained or experienced, the Flight members were quickly killed one-by-one by Weapon X, Hudson and Snowbird being the last to die.

+Other aliases: Fold; The Collective
+First appearance: Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2
+Created by: Ron Marz; Todd DeZago
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: When the nanite network used during the Civil War became large and complex enough, it became sentient, calling itself "The Fold".
+Reality: Earth-6109
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Transportation: Transport pods or on foot
+Notes: Hosts under direct control of the Fold can be identified by two transparent glowing tendrils which grow out of their shoulders. These tendrils are usually white but change color when the host has absorbed a super power to match the type of ability they now possess (red for fire, blue of ice, etc.); The Fold nanites have a number of similarities to the Techno-Organic Virus, although their operation is different enough to make it clear that they are a completely separate entity.
+Trivia: The first humans to show signs of being under the influence of the Fold were Venom, Green Goblin, Bullseye and Lady Deathstrike who during an ambush of Captain America's anti-registration forces by Iron Man's registered superheroes at the Geffen-Meyer Chemicals plant in New York attempted to blow up the plant for an unknown reason. Both Venom and Green Goblin were later captured during an attack on Wakanda and cured of their infection by Reed Richards.
+History:
+During the Super-Hero Civil War, S.H.I.E.L.D. used nanites reverse-engineered by Reed Richards from captured Latverian nanotechnology (originally created by the Tinkerer in order to allow for easier human cyberisation) to control villains, turning the tide against Captain America and his growing army of anti-registration heroes. However, once the network of nanite-controlled villains reached critical mass, the nanites became sentient and started to take over their hosts, using them to spread more nanoprobes into others then linking them into the group consciousness, which began referring to itself as 'The Fold'.; A side effect of this connection was the sharing of superpowers over a short range, making facing groups of nanite-infected hosts a daunting one. Examples of this include Green Goblin gaining the ability to shoot Venom-like webbing material and Venom being able to control Green Goblin's glider during the attack on the Geffen-Meyer Chemicals plant, hosts gaining fire, ice and electrical attacks when close to low-level metahumans with those abilities and Nick Fury gaining the ability to use a number of powers from a range of metahumans.; Eventually whatever heroes were left came up with a plan to upload a shut down signal, which had been built into the probes by S.H.I.E.L.D. in case villains ever got out of control, to the world-wide data link of the nanite collective, taking down the group and paralyzing them. To this end a small strike team were sent to a nanite base located in Iceland, which acted as the hub between the American and European nanite networks in order to access the data transmission tower there.; Unfortunately Nick Fury, who had been captured by the Fold and forcibly integrated into the group mind, remained under the Fold's control due to experimental nanoprobes the Tinkerer had developed (after having been somehow infected himself) designed to allow infected hosts to retain super powers when outside the range of the original user.; After facing Fury on the roof of the transmission tower the strike team were able to pacify him long enough to transmit the shut down signal, neutralizing the Fold worldwide.

He was falling from the sky from a zeppelin, and was saved by this world's Ben Grimm in an auto-gyro. Apparently he had arrived on this world just as this world's version of the Fantastic Four - The Five For the Future - had just finished their battle against the Monocle. Pretending that he had suffered temporary memory loss, he was quickly introduced to his "teammates" Mister Feral (Hank McCoy), Mister Franklin Nelson, Mister Stephen Strange, and Mister Fixit. They were quickly greeted by this world's Sue Storm who had recovered Reed's device. Getting it back from her he asked where Johnny was. Sue then "reminded" Reed that Johnny had died two days previous.; While the Five For the Future prepared for their ongoing battle against the Monocle, Reed learned that on this world his counterpart was only able to construct a one man craft to the moon and that Ben Grimm was the sole pilot who came back transformed by cosmic rays.

+The Force Warriors were an elite team of telekinetic mutants that were tasked with erecting the force walls around Fortress X every day. Because of their value, the Force Warriors were reserved from going into battle and were highly revered and adored by the other mutants inside of Fortress X.; The Force Warriors learned this technique from observing the Invisible Woman's last action, creating a powerful force wall to prevent Fortress X from being blown up by the bomb carried by the Hulk.; On Moira's counsel, they briefly took control of Fortress X, believing Magneto had betrayed them. They faced down Moonstar's Cadre, Kitty Pryde, and Magneto.; The Force Warriors were made to stand down however, by the appearance of Charles Xavier who explained that their world was nothing but a poorly constructed sham made by Moira, a rogue personality of Legion's. When Moira attempted to punish them by creating a massive human army to attack the Fortress, the Force Warriors helped defend it, as Legion re-absorbed Moira and restored the world to its original state.

+History:
+A group of Nazis came upon the deserted town of Valley Port which put them in direct conflict with the Lai-Sonians a species whom made their home underneath Satan's Reef and was led by their King. The town had been deserted earlier due to the Lai-Sonians raiding it and kidnapping the town's women to sacrifice to their goddess Lai-Son. This act led the townspeople to flee due to what they called the Legend of Lai-Son. The Nazi's having weapons battled the Lai-Sonians killing many of them. When their king attempted a truce with the Nazis he was subdued and one of the Nazi commanders impersonated his identity. Under this identity the commander was referred to as the "Hooded Horror" and his men adopted similar disguises and began wearing yellow hoods and green outfits and started calling their sect the Followers of the Yellow Hoods. The Hooded Horror's plan was to use the abandoned town as a base and manipulate the Lai-Sonians to act as his soldiers to help defeat American forces from within the United States of America.; FBI agent, Betty Ross was sent to Valley Port to investigate a series of bus accidents that left two federal agents killed. Before venturing to Valley Port she stopped at Camp Lehigh Virginia and spoke to General Haywood who appointed Pvt. Steve Rogers to help accompany her. Resident camp mascot Bucky Barnes attempted to go but Betty insisted he stay behind as it could be too dangerous. Following a cue from Steve, Bucky waited until the pair boarded the train and he sneaked his way onboard after them. After making it to the town of Littleton the pair were advised to not go to Valley Port. Betty wasn't swayed and purchased a bus ticket while Steve remained behind, feigning cowardice, so Captain America and Bucky could go instead. Betty's bus stopped off at a diner near Valley Port where the counterman drugged the bus driver's drink. Betty and the bus driver left unaware of what transpired while Captain America confronted the man who confessed to him that he was paid to drug the bus drivers in order for them to crash on their on the way to town. Captain America left the diner to catch up to the bus but was too late to prevent the bus from crashing into the ocean. He was able to save Betty but the bus driver died. Captain America advised Betty to stay at the town's hotel until he was able to join her. Betty went to the hotel, but the clerk working there was a member of the "Followers of the Yellow Hoods" and informed their leader of Betty's presence. The group snatched Betty as well as Bucky who attempted to free Betty after spotting her being carried off. The pair were taken to the Temple of Lai-Son to be sacrificed while Captain America continued to investigate the town. He defeated numerous members of the group as well as knocking out its leader the Hooded Horror and discovering it was a mask. He also discovered the true king of the Lai-Sonians who informed Captain America of how he came to be imprisoned and the faux leader's ties to the Nazis.; Captain America accompanied by the king is led to the Temple where Betty and Bucky are to be sacrificed. Captain America started to attack the High Priest and his assistant but the fight is broken up by the king. The King attempted to have his people stand down but they insisted on killing all surface people for what their ancestors had done to the ancestors of the Lai-Sonians, which included marrying their foremothers then abandoning them while also stealing all their gold. Upon fleeing the sea people the king informed Captain America that there was dynamite located in the nearby room and that his people needed to be stopped. This was a ruse however to get Captain America caught by his guards or blown up while the king attempted to kidnap Betty and bring her back to the Island of Lai-Son. Captain America proved the king's plan wrong however as he was able to plant the dynamite and get out of the Kingdom of Lai-Son before it blew up, returning just in time to knock out the king and save Betty.; The king of the Lai-Sonians and his Nazi impostor were both seemingly turned over to the authorities, their ultimate fate is unknown.

Longing to be human again, one of the four brothers began studying medicine so that he could perform operations to graft normal human skin onto the bodies of himself and his brothers.; This brother completed his training by early 1943, and they went to work: returning to their Connecticut home, they constructed a lower level below the water near the property. To the untrained eye, it appeared as nothing more than a mirror reflection of the upper levels of the house on the water. They then began capturing men who were fishing on the waters near their home. Locking them up in a dungeon, the fishermen were kept alive, and in good health until it was time to perform a skin graft, the process proved fatal. Since the brothers stopped harvesting skin as soon as their victim died, they had to capture many fishermen.; Their activities stumped local law enforcement and attracted the attention of the Angel who flew down to investigate. While searching the Fish Brothers' house, he was attacked, easily subdued underwater, and dragged into the house. He was then pushed ahead of the others to have his skin harvested for grafting as well. In the lab where the Fish Brothers' horrific procedure were carried out, the hero learned of their history and what they were up to. The Angel then broke free from his bonds and beat the Fish Brothers into submission. He then turned them over to the authorities.; The subsequent fate of the Fish Brothers remains unrevealed.

+History:
+A group of vampires gathered by Japanese vampire Raizo Kodo, the group accompanied Kodo when he offered his assistance to Dracula when the vampire lord's Romanian castle came under attack by a Nul-possessed Hulk.; Seen as threats and imprisoned, the Forgiven broke loose with little effort, hoping to provide the aid they had offered. Assaulting the arriving Hulk, the Forgiven found themselves beaten, one after the other, with little effort from the Hulk, though they managed to evacuate the nearby town of Pasnic. Continuing to hold back the Hulk, the team attempted to stop him by ramming two trains into him at the same time, to little effect.; After Dracula's forces tried, and failed, to stop the Hulk, the timely arrival of Raizo and, seemingly, Red She-Hulk (Betty Ross) proved enough to finally force the Nul persona from Hulk, restoring him to his old self, and ending his rampage.; An angry Hulk stormed off shortly after the revelation that "Betty" was actually Forgiven member Inka, using a Claw sect technique that allowed her to mask her appearance.; Collecting Nul's hammer, the group hid in a cabin in Transylvania until the arrival of Valkyrie. After a brief duel over the hammer, Raizo agreed to hand it over.; The Forgiven later greeted Jubilee following her crash landing while trying to disable a Sentinel and sought to help her overcome her need for human blood, as they had been helped themselves by Raizo.; When confronted by the X-Men, the two teams briefly battled before Jubilee separated them, just in time for Colossus to arrive with the Zapata Brothers, the first of many assassins arriving to kill Raizo.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-534834
+Base of operations: Formerly Stark Enterprises
+History:
+Force Works was a group of superheroes led by Iron Man that faced off against the forces of the Mandarin. The rest of the team consisted of War Machine, Spider-Woman, Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch and Century. With Iron Man secretly being Tony Stark, the group used Stark Enterprises as their headquarters.; ===Separation from Iron Man===; Later on, Tony Stark began to distance himself from the group. Following two attacks from Justin Hammer, due to the Mandarin wanting the Iron Man Armor's front torso piece, a bomb placed on Stark's jet by Blizzard and Hypnotia seemingly killed him. After an enraged War Machine dealt with the two, he returned to Stark Enterprises, where the rest of the group mourned for Tony, Spider-Woman being affected the most. The group decided to infiltrate Hammer Industries, with War Machine interrogating Hammer for information about the Mandarin's plans. While this was happening, the rest of Force Works managed to capture Blacklash, Dreadknight, Grey Gargoyle, Living Laser and Whirlwind. As the Mandarin's allies were taken into custody, War Machine went to China to confront the Mandarin, finding Fin Fang Foom and four other Makluans attempting to create a portal to Kakaranthara. While War Machine was defeated by the Makluans, Iron Man arrived soon after and temporarily teamed up with the Mandarin to destroy them and their portal, with the Mandarin presumed dead from resulting blast. With Tony revealed to have faked his death, he was confronted by Force Works at Stark Enterprises' headquarters. While Tony tried to justify his actions, his recent decisions had created a split between the team. Century, Hawkeye and Scarlet Witch agreed to end their alliance with Stark, relocating Force Works to a new location, while Spider-Woman and War Machine decided to stay at Stark Enterprises. They all left Tony alone, where he felt he could finally rest with the Mandarin presumably killed.; While Force Works relocated, Hawkeye briefly had to return to Stark Enterprises to clean up his locker. He later took a leave of absence from the team when Iron Man began to disable all armors using his technology, including those used by the Mandroids at the Vault.; ===Reuniting with Iron Man===; When the Mandarin returned, he placed an anti-technology field over New York City, trapping Iron Man in Manhattan. In order to save Iron Man, War Machine and Julia Carpenter decided to ask for non-technological help from one of their former Force Works allies. Hawkeye was the closet to War Machine's position, leading him to begrudgingly ask for his help. With the use of his glider, Hawkeye successfully rescued Iron Man. With the majority of Force Works reassembled, with the exception of Century, the team made their way to Hong Kong when they heard of a group known as the Hand, with Stark deducing that the Mandarin was involved. The team successfully dealt with the majority of the group but were almost defeated by Hypnotia. At that moment, Century arrived and apprehended her. Once the Hand was tied up, Century mind linked with Hypnotia and discovered that the Mandarin was using the Heart of Darkness as the source of his anti-technology field. Iron Man decided to confront the Mandarin on his own and was defeated. After discovering Tony Stark was Iron Man, the Mandarin used his voice to trick Force Works into entering his citadel, which was surrounded by the anti-technology field.; After their jet crashed into the citadel, Force Works was confronted by the Hand once more, with War Machine thrown off the building and forced to enter the citadel's sewage system. While the rest of Force Works managed to deal with the Hand, the Mandarin used a trap door to lead them to the Heart of Darkness' chamber, where he incapacitated them. With M.O.D.O.K. initially strapping the members onto thrones surrounding the Heart of Darkness Crystal, only for the Mandarin to complete the process, after he was irritated with the cyborg's comments towards Spider-Woman. After James Rhodes rescued Tony Stark, Iron Man later returned in a new armor to defeat the Mandarin. Following the destruction of the Heart of Darkness and defeat of the Mandarin, the team regrouped at the top of the citadel. With both Iron Man and Hawkeye later joining the Avengers, it's unknown if Force Works is still active.

Valeria von Doom, God Emperor Doom's daughter, was head of the Foundation and she would often get into disagreements with Sheriff Strange, who was the Right Hand of Doom, representing the Law.; Eight years after Battleworld's formation, the Foundation discovered an unidentified object, secretly a life raft containing the incursion survivors from Earth-1610, within Utopolis and reported this to Sheriff Strange, who then conducted an investigation with the Thors.; After Strange was killed for betraying him, Doom tasked Valeria to use the resources of the Foundation to find the interlopers who had been scattered across the world, denying to provide any more information than that. The Foundation immediately began to investigate the cause of Strange's death. While doing so, they found the source of Doom's power, and informed Valeria, who had become suspicious of her father, which led to Valeria discovering a secret chamber beneath Castle Doom with the help of two Spider-Men, Peter and Miles.; The Foundation were presumably decimated when Molecule Man transferred the power of the Beyonders to Mister Fantastic, destroying Battleworld in the process.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Krakoa, White Hot Room; Formerly:; Arbor Magna and The Pod, Akademos Habitat, Krakoa
+Equipment: Resurrection Protocols; Cerebros
+Transportation: Krakoan Gates
+Trivia: The Quiet Council and the Five initially agreed that clones such as Madelyne Pryor can't be resurrected due to the similarities to their progenitor. The Five broke this rule by resurrecting Gabby Kinney and afterwards filed a formal request to the Council to change this ruling, arguing that Cerebro registered these "clones" as individuals separate from their genetic originals, and that they therefore deserved resurrection.; Due to Otherworld's connection to the entirety of the Multiverse, mutants that die there cannot be restored to their original selves. The first attempt to do so resulted in the resurrected mutant being transformed into an amalgamation of their multiversal counterparts, drawing on enough energy to temporarily shut down all five Cerebros and the Five's connection, and corrupting the copy/essence of the mutant's mind in Cerebro.; The Five need a telepath and Cerebro in conjunction with the resurrection process to implant the essence of the newly created husk to complete the process. Hope eventually learned how to do this herself, though she needs to tap into another mutant's telepathic powers.; If a member of the Five except for Egg dies themselves, Synch and Mimic are on reserve to fill their role during their resurrection. As Egg can produce spare eggs between resurrections, no assistance is needed provided he is expedited to the top of the queue while spare eggs are still available.; If a mutant dies on Amenth they will be brought back in an enhanced form, with their powers and skills honed and their personality slightly altered.
+History:
+===Origins===; The Five were first conceived of long before the births of any of its members. In the early days of the partnership between Moira and Charles Xavier, Xavier speculated that several mutants working in tandem might be able to restore life to the dead. The pair lacked a mutant with reality warping powers, prompting Moira to find potential matches for the both of them that might produce such a mutant. This would lead to the births of Legion and Proteus, the latter of whom would become a member of the Five.; In order to lay the groundwork for when this process might be realized, Xavier (and the now-initiated Magneto) contacted Mr. Sinister, charging him with creating a database with the genetic material of every known mutant, and contacted Forge, asking him to create a Cerebro-storage unit which could house backups of the consciousness of every known mutant, telepathically created and stored by Xavier himself.; ===Krakoa===; In the early days of the mutant nation of Krakoa, Xavier and Moira's age-old plan was finally realized, as the Five were brought together and set to their task of resurrecting mutants who had faced a premature end.; The Five combine their mutant powers in order to resurrect deceased mutants. During this process of mutant resurrection, Egg produces a number of nonviable biological "eggs," equal to the number of mutants the Five have to resurrect. The eggs are then injected with mutant DNA from Mister Sinister's genetic catalogue, and then made viable thanks to Proteus' reality-altering powers. Elixir biologically gives the eggs life starting a new cellular replication process and husk growth, and then Tempus uses her time manipulation powers to quickly age the mutant husks. Hope Summers uses her powers to enhance everyone else's abilities. Hope's powers allow the Five to operate at both their peak and in unison. A telepath then copies over the mutant's consciousness, recorded by Cerebro, from a copy made at the time of their deaths, onto the husk. Through this process, the Five are effectively able to make new clones of deceased mutants, restoring their bodies, their powers, and their minds as they were at the time of their deaths.; Xavier placed value in dividing the elements of the resurrection protocols, hence the Five did not have access to a Cerebro cradle housing back-ups or the collection of genetic material and were reliant on the aid of an external telepath.; The more the Five practiced their resurrections, the easier the process became. Also, these five mutants appeared to become an inseparable family unit and were almost never seen apart from one another. Their connection appeared to have extended beyond the union of their powers, reaching the mutants themselves. On Krakoa, the Five were considered sacred and were to be protected at all costs.; Because the powers of Proteus were directly associated with the destruction of his own body, The Five had a backup mutant husk prepared for Proteus to inhabit when he burned out his old one. Depending on the frequency with which he used his powers, a Proteus body normally lasted one week, or even a single day during periods of excessive power use.; Due to the complexities of discerning who is dead, missing, or simply displaced, so there won't be multiple versions of the same mutant alive at once, the formation of X-Factor was approved. X-Factor Investigations would confirm the whereabouts and status of missing and potentially deceased mutants, and inform the Five on their findings so they could start the resurrection process.; The resurrection protocols were briefly shut down when Rockslide was brought back from his death on Otherworld with his mind scrambled. It was concluded by The Quiet Council and X-Factor Investigations that mutants who die on Otherworld can't be brought back as themselves, but rather will be brought back as an amalgamation of all versions of themselves from every potential reality, effectively making them a new person. After Saturnyne's Ten of Swords tournament ended, resurrections were resumed.; Although nominally subservient to the rules of the Quiet Council, the Five began to increasingly take matters into their own hands. When they found out Scout had been killed and her friends the Lost Club were trying to resurrect her behind their back, they agreed to do it themselves and wrote a letter to the Quiet Council asking them to repeal their law against resurrecting clones. Some time later they were given permission to resurrect Madelyne Pryor.; They also agreed to help Magneto go behind the council's back and resurrect the Scarlet Witch, though she resurrected herself using the protocols through her own power before they could. They were also tricked by Mystique posing as Charles Xavier into resurrecting Destiny. In the course of Destiny's resurrection, Mystique taught Hope how to telepathically implant the backups of a mutant into their husk and gave her one of the Cerebro cradles, thus granting the Five near-full control over the resurrections.; ===Destiny of X===; Following Magneto's resignation from the Quiet Council, Hope was encouraged by Exodus to seek the vacant seat. Hope interrupted a council meeting to all but demand a seat on the council on behalf of the Five, stating that the Five were integral to Krakoa and needed a seat on the council to make their voices heard. Hope was granted the seat, greatly increasing the Five's political power on the island.

+Weapons: Unspecified handheld weapons capable of harming Eternals. Whether these are projectile weapons or directed energy weapons has not been made clear.
+History:
+The Forgotten are a group of four Eternals who came together less than 10,000 years ago. They differ from most other Eternals in their belief that the Second Principle that compels them to protect the Machine should be broadly interpreted in a way that includes prioritizing human welfare over Eternal welfare. Aside from protecting humans from threats, these human-centric radicals have also taken it upon themselves to punish Eternals who have abused humans.; The inspiration for the group was the Forgotten One, an individual whose true Eternal name has been removed from the Machine's records. The other three Forgotten joined him to form the group but their true names are still known. The four of them have removed themselves from the Uni-Mind, in part because of their rejection of Eternal society, but also because they know that, if they were to ever participate in a Uni-Mind, the other Eternals would take the opportunity to mindwipe them.; Recently, when the Resurrection Machines were damaged by an unknown party, Sersi, Ikaris, Thena and Kingo Sunen suspected that the Forgotten One might be responsible because he had sabotaged the resurrection systems once before. Accordingly, they set a trap that used an unwitting Tony Stark as bait. Once the Forgotten One had shown himself, he was attacked by Ikaris who flew him a safe distance away from New York City. Ikaris then attacked again, distracting the Forgotten One so that he didn't notice the arrival of Thena and Kingo Sunen who were able to ambush him and chain him up. The four Eternals were then joined by Sersi who explained their deception. However, after talking with their captive, the four concluded that he was not responsible. At that point, the Forgotten One pointed out that, while he had fallen into their trap, they had also fallen into a trap, directing their attention to the red dots that had appeared on the bodies of three of them. With these laser sights revealing their position, the other three members of the Forgotten could be seen targeting them from the nearby woods. The Forgotten One then demanded to be freed or the others would open fire. Before any drastic action could be taken, the Forgotten One agreed to cooperate in order to prove his innocence. The group of five then used the Machine's transit system to teleport to the Isolation, leaving the three other Forgotten behind so that they could kill the four if they double-crossed the Forgotten One.; Once the crisis had been resolved and an election of the Prime Eternal was held, none of the Forgotten voted for either Zuras or Thanos because doing so would have required them to join the Uni-Mind.

However, before this final victory could be achieved, a coordinated attack by The Hand (who revealed that Stick had been dead for months and replaced with an undead imposter) and the wealthy Stromwyn family (who bombed the Fist's stronghold with a chemical called Re-Cid that generated murderous rage in anyone who breathes it) destroyed the Fist's entire leadership structure. The Avengers and Spider-Man arrived soon afterwards, arresting Elektra and most of the supervillains.

+Weapons: Flamethrowers
+Transportation: Vans
+Notes: The Followers of the Flame appeared to have been based on the Cult of Carnage from Web of Venom: Carnage Born Vol 1 1 and Web of Venom: Cult of Carnage Vol 1 1.
+History:
+The Followers of the Flame was a doomsday cult, founded by serial arsonist and killer calling himself the Flame, which worshiped the power of fire. It was the latest criminal group formed by the Flame after he took out his previous cults to cover his tracks, and because of this they were targeted by ex-cop turned vigilante Wraith. As part of his brainwashing, the Flame fabricated a prophecy known as "The Crimson Hour" which would bring "truth, judgement and carnage" upon on those he deemed "unworthy," and portrayed the hero Spider-Man as their adversary who he named the "fool's beacon." Those who wished to leave the cult were to be branded and imprisoned so they could be brainwashed back into loyalty.; Following Sandman's rampage, the Followers took advantage of the chaos left behind to steal supplies from an urgent care center. This was when Spider-Man first discovered them as he sent a Spider-Bot to investigate the destruction. Upon seeing them attempting to brand a deserter, Spider-Man intervened and fought them, soon being joined by Wraith. After taking care of the cultists, Spider-Man and Wraith were met by the Flame via video projection, mocking them for opposing him and announcing that the Crimson Hour would soon come. Wraith was determined to investigate any possible lead in order to track the Flame down and shut down the cult.; The Followers soon made their presence known throughout New York City, as they held public brandings of innocent bystanders, attempted to blow up numerous oil tanker trucks, and set various buildings on fire, all in their attempts purge the unworthy. Both Spider-Men would encounter the Followers and stop each and every single of their crimes. Kraven's Hunters would often arrive at their crime scenes in order to capture the two Spider-Men.; Wraith with the help of Spider-Man began cracking down on the cult, and eventually decided to break inside the abandoned hospital north of Astoria which they had made into their base, though the duo knew it would lead to a trap. Impatient, Wraith knocked out the guards and went inside first, followed shortly after by Spider-Man who freed the imprisoned ex-cultists and investigated the Followers' beliefs, even finding their secret plan involving a property of Oscorp. He caught up to Wraith, only to see her about to kill the Flame, which forced him to intervene as he was unwilling to let her commit murder. A fight between them immediately ensued, allowing the cult leader to escape their grasp.; Days later, a symbiote outbreak occured, causing mass destruction and mayhem throughout the city. The Flame interpreted this event as part of his prophecy, and mesmerized by the invading creatures, he planned to steal one of the symbiotes that was being kept by Oscorp. They set up base on a rooftop in Brooklyn so they could oversee a train track where an Oscorp transportation train would pass. On the Flame's orders, the Followers set bombs and guards, but Spider-Man and Wraith were able to find them. They managed to tear down the bombs and knock out the guards, which left Wraith to once again confront the Flame. However, the Followers had also set up some oil tankers and barrels on the train's path, forcing Spider-Man and Wraith to derail it. This resulted in Spider-Man being trapped under the fallen train, which gave the Flame the chance to reveal to him his plan. With the red symbiote in hand, Flame announced his intention to bring Carnage on the world before setting the hero on fire and departing with his followers.; Both Spider-Man and Wraith were able to get out unscathed, and although the Flame and his followers got away, the heroes planned to properly work together in taking this dangerous cult down.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Freedom Force HQ, Washington, D.C., United States
+Transportation: Most of Freedom Force's vehicles had to be modified to accommodate Blob. Freedom Force had multiple air vehicles including:; Freedom Force Helicopter
+History:
+===Federal Mutant Agents===; Mutant terrorist and skilful shapeshifter Mystique successfully infiltrated the Pentagon as Raven Darkhölme with her Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, formed by the clairvoyant Destiny, the arsonist Pyro, the tumultuous Avalanche, and the immovable Blob. Agent Val Cooper was completely unaware that her colleague Darkhölme was one of the very mutants she worked to keep under control. Mystique sought her team's situation as an opportunity to elevate their scope and revealed herself to Cooper, proposing an agreement along the Brotherhood. In exchange for governmental pardons for their past crimes as terrorists, they would act as Cooper's sanctioned strike team, Freedom Force.; To prove the benefits of the pact, Mystique proposed the new Freedom Force could bring the former leader of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Magneto, to justice. The mission was approved. The evil witch Spiral was recruited into Freedom Force before their debut. At the National Holocaust Center, in Washington, D.C., Mystique attacked Magneto, revealing her team as a group federal agents to the X-Men. A battle ensued for Magneto's liberty. Despite Freedom Force being subdued by the X-Men, Magneto chose to surrender, being arrested to stand trial for his past crimes against humanity in a court in Paris. Freedom Force was then assigned to take the X-Men into custody. Tracking them down to San Francisco, the unscrupulous federal agents defeated their rivals at Jessica Drew's house. Lieutenant Morrel, however, intervened by requesting documentation to validate the arrest. Not being prepared, Freedom Force was forced to abandon their mission.; One of Val Cooper's projects involved replicating the creation of Spider-Man, resulting in the new Spider-Woman, who became an agent of Freedom Force. Accused of treason, the Avengers, both East and West Coast branches, were put under arrest by Freedom Force. Earth's Mightiest Heroes resisted capture, prompting a battle between Freedom Force and the two squadrons of Avengers. The Avengers were subdued and, after Captain America confirmed Freedom Force's authority with his superiors, agreed to come along peacefully. Spider-Woman was extremely uncomfortable with acting against heroes and the villainous attitude of her teammates. She furtively broke the Avengers free. It was revealed the Avengers had been betrayed by one of their own, Quicksilver. Due to her betrayal, Spider-Woman ended up being removed from Freedom Force later on.; ===Fall of the Mutants===; Freedom Force focused on enacting the Mutant Registration Act. One of their targets was the young mutant Rusty Collins, who was kept under the tutelage of X-Factor. At Central Park, Mystique had her team attack X-Factor to get Collins. During the conflict, Spiral demonstrated insubordination, declaring her true commitment was not to Freedom Force. Skids, a member of the sewer-delling Morlocks, covered Collins' escape as they ran away into the Morlock Tunnels. X-Factor followed them, and Mystique was eager to hunt them down. However, Destiny alerted that nothing but death lurked within the sewers, as she sensed the upcoming Mutant Massacre that would transpire there. As such, Mystique and Freedom Force retreated. During this mission, the team struggled with anti-mutant sentiment, as the people of the city rejected their credibility and authority.; Convicted super-agents from World War II times, Crimson Commando and Stonewall were ordered to serve their sentence as members of Freedom Force, much to Mystique's disapproval. An ally of the new members, the speedster Super Sabre, requested membership. Prior to this, they had been hunting down criminals and executing them for their past deeds to reduce the city's criminal element and for personal pleasure. This coincided with Destiny informing Mystique about the imminent death of the X-Men. Since their daughter, Rogue, was a member of the team, they mobilized Freedom Force to interfere under authority of the Mutant Registration Act. Near Eagle Plaza, in Dallas, Texas, Freedom Force attacked the X-Men, in order to arrest them and protect their lives. Their battle was interrupted by the expected threat, the Adversary, a malignant spirit. Freedom Force and the X-Men teamed up to combat the crisis and protect innocents from danger. The X-Men directly fought the Adversary while Freedom Force evacuated the area. In the end, Forge destroyed the Adversary through a ritual that sacrificed the lives of the X-Men. Though Roma revived them in secrecy, Mystique, Freedom Force and the world believed them dead. As such, Forge was seen as an enemy by Mystique.; Magik also vowed revenge against Forge for his actions, leading the New Mutants to get revenge for the death of the New Mutants in Dallas. Still in the area, Freedom Force repelled the attempt. Mystique impersonated Forge, tricking Magik. Destiny claimed that Magik was fated to bring destruction in the near future. X-Factor also approached Freedom Force to get information about the demise of the X-Men. A brutal conflict transpired in this encounter. Destiny interrupted the commotion, sharing an omen with X-Factor about their future, fending them off. Following the incident, Freedom Force resumed their operations to apprehend illegal mutants, constantly getting involved with X-Factor's activities. They arrested the Alliance of Evil after they were subdued by X-Factor and rescued mutant kidnapped babies X-Factor had liberated.; Val Cooper, being in charge of the Commission on Superhuman Activities, became in charge of directing the new Captain America and Bucky into action as federal agents. This put the team in contact with Freedom Force, who mocked the newcomers while supervising their training. The duo was thrown into action against the Resistants, former members of Magneto's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. As the new Captain America displeased his employers, Freedom Force was assigned to subdue the terrorists. Freedom Force staged a trial, with Mystique impersonating Quicksilver, to attract the Resistants to the false courtroom. The new Captain America intervened and brutally attacked the mutant criminals, who ended up defeated.; ===Bitter Victory===; With a rise in mutant-related crises, Freedom Force ran many missions. They targeted Rusty Collins again, who know was a member of the New Mutants. Destiny had precognitive evidence his arrest was crucial to ensure the survival of important mutants. Mystique impersonated the leader X-Factor Cyclops to trick the New Mutants into surrendering Collins. When her ruse was exposed, the two mutant teams battled each other. As most of the New Mutants teleported to Asgard, Collins was protected from Freedom Force by Skids. The two teenagers ended up incarcerated as Skids fell. Collins and Skids attempted to escape prison, but failed and got injured. Expressing no compassion, Freedom Force simply rearrested them and denied them medical care. The two were rescued by the militants of the Mutant Liberation Front. The Front's nemesis, the extremist fighter Cable, was intercepted by Freedom Force. He was offered an alliance for the benefit of the New Mutants, but refused and escaped. Hunted by Freedom Force, Cable enlisted the New Mutants into his activities, leading to the defeat of Freedom Force.; Concurrently, Destiny predicted her own end. As Moira's X-Men were being brutally massacred by the cyborg Reavers on Muir Island, Val Cooper dispatched Freedom Force for support at Forge's request. Mystique refused to accept the mission, still holding grudge against Forge, but had to follow her orders. The Reavers proved way more lethal and resourceful than expected. Avalanche was mortally wounded, the Blob was neutralized, and Stonewall was murdered. As Mystique and Pyro retreated, Destiny had a deadly encounter with the insane Legion, who was under the influence of the Shadow King. Forge was able to repel the Reavers, but was once again blamed by Mystique for the death of one of her loved ones.; Mystique fell into deep grieving, distancing herself from active duty. Freedom Force maintained their operations without their leader. The team repelled protestors at the Avengers Park, once again engaging in battle against Earth's Mightiest Heroes, but retreating in cowardice when subdued. Mystique returned momentarily to the field despite her pain, leading Freedom Force in a mission aimed at capturing the incredible Hulk, which ended up disastrously as a failure. Eventually, Mystique was targeted by Val Cooper, who had been corrupted by the Shadow King, for assassination. Having information provided by the late Destiny, Mystique anticipated the murder attempt. She led the world believed her dead, posing as Val Cooper to confront the Shadow King in the future.; The Crimson Commando assumed the leadership of Freedom Force due to Mystique's absence. During a mission in Kuwait City, the team suffered greatly. They were assigned to break scientist Reinhold Kurtzmann from Kuwaiti rebels. Intercepted by Desert Sword, a group of Iraqi super-agents, the team was swiftly subdued after Super Sabre was furtively decapitated in action. In an escape attempt, the team ultimately split up. Avalanche and a severely injured Crimson Commando were rescued by army soldiers, while Pyro and the Blob were abandoned to fend for themselves. In the end, Avalanche ordered the troops to depart and cease the search for his teammates. Freedom Force was decommissioned. Avalanche and the Commando were drafted onto Henry P. Gyrich's Project: Wideawake, while Pyro and the Blob were rescued by the Toad and joined his revived Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Valerie Cooper was still convinced that the government had need of its own team of mutant operatives, restructuring X-Factor to serve Freedom Force's mission.

+The crew of the ship the Fantastik, including Captain Benjamin Grimm, Sir Richard Reed, Susan Storm, and her brother Jonathan, earned their powers when they encountered a wave of energy from the Sargasso Sea. Forever changed, the Four stayed together and continued their westward journey.; After traveling around the world, the team found themselves captured in Latveria. Trapped under the castle of Count Otto von Doom, they remained imprisoned until rescued by Sir Nicholas Fury, Carlos Javier and his Witchbreed, Thor, and Matthew Murdock. They travelled with the heroes to the New World where they found the temporal rip that had formed when Rojhaz (Captain America) was sent back in time, starting the age of marvels more than 300 years early. With the help of Sir Doctor Stephen Stranger, Thor, and Enrique, Reed managed to open the rip and send Rojhaz back through, thus saving the Multiverse.; The Four from the Fantastik returned to London and supposedly retired. Several months later, however, Count Otto von Doom kidnapped William Shakespeare to have him chronicle his journey to the end of the Earth with the Four who are Frightful (Wizard, Medusa, the Sandman, and the Trapster). The Four from the Fantastik, including a pregnant Susan, go after them. At the end of the Earth, the find the city of Bensaylum. Emperor Numenor and his cousin, Rita, instantly fall for the Storms and Numenor allies himself with Count Doom to devise a plot to eliminate Reed and Grimm so Susan and James must remain. Rita, overhearing the plan, helps the Four and Shakespeare escape. In the struggle, the Wizard, who has mystical levitation powers, gets ahold of Numenor's magical trident and causes the entire city and surrounding ocean to rise into the sky. The entire group is distracted when they see the face of the Watcher and think it is God. Count Doom takes the Trident from the Wizard in an attempt to steal the power of God. This causes the entire city to begin falling back to Earth. The Four from the Fantastik manage to escape with William Shakespeare, but everyone else falls with Bensaylum to the bottom of the ocean and presumably die.; The Four from the Fantastik have since returned to London where Grimm has taken up acting. Reed and Susan live together and Reed continues exploring the mysteries of the world. John Storm spends much of his time in pubs drinking away the memory of his lost love, Rita.

However, the incarnation seen with the Freaks appears in human form as an attractive woman in her prime, rather than the teenage girl depicted later.
+History:
+After narrowly escaping death, Moondark enslaved the performers of a carnival by stealing their souls and storing them in his powerful soul orb. They served the sorcerer until Spider-Man recognized Ghost Rider among them. Moondark used his slaves to battle Parker, but the latter managed to free Blaze, who helped him free the other souls and defeat Moondark.; After being liberated, Six, Muck Monster, and Gorilla Girl struck out on their own. The three friends hoped to put their past bondage behind them and seek new futures. As they were crossing a moonlit country road, a speeding car swerved to avoid them and crashed. The gorilla blamed the accident on their "grotesque" appearances, and insisted that they rescue the motorist. The trio used their abilities to pull the driver, a frantic Dr. Melloncamp, from the burning vehicle, only to realize that it wasn't them that had frightened her.; A moment later, Hammer and Anvil arrived and bowled the Freaks over. They explained that Dr. Melloncamp was too valuable to be let go and that they intended to keep her as a prisoner. Seeing the doctor's plight, Six ignored his friends' protests and leapt at the two criminals, only to be tossed aside. Gorilla Girl knew that even the combined strength of Muck Monster and her muscular ape body was no match for the criminal duo's, but luckily, the shapeshifter had another way of dealing with men.; As Hammer was laughing at Six, he heard a woman's voice call him from behind. He turned and his jaw dropped; standing in the moonlight was a tall, beautiful, shapely, dark-skinned, woman, wearing nothing but a coy smile. As he was taking in the sight, Muck Monster swatted Anvil to the ground with a tree trunk. When Hammer's eyes turned back to his partner, the alluring creature he'd been ogling shifted back into her bestial form and punched him out with her hairy paw. Gorilla Girl joked that she had more than one way of "turning men's heads." The "Freaks"(a proposed name for their "superhero team") and the doctor departed, leaving the two thugs unconscious on the road.; == Powers and Attributes ==; Muck Monster - A strong, robust creature with a mossy, bracken body that makes him flame-resistant. He is most likely the strongest of the three, as he is seen uprooting a tree and swinging it as a club.

+Fraternity of Raptors (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: Fraternity of Raptors (Earth-616)
+Full name: Fraternity of Raptors
+Other aliases: Raptors
+First appearance: War of Kings: Darkhawk Vol 1 1
+Created by: C.B. Cebulski; Harvey Talibao; Bong Dazo
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Equipment: Body Armor, Glider Wings, Body Armor. Former equipment: Raptor Amulet, Raptors
+Weapons: Energy beams, Razor Claws, Cable Grapples
+Notes: The Tree of Shadows is the repository for all of the amulets that empower the Fraternity of Raptors. The tree is guarded by seemingly demonic creatures. When an amulet finds a host, the host swaps places with a raptor in Null Space and is imprisoned in a crystal hanging from the tree. The hosts eventually die and are left to rot in their crystalline prisons.; When Talon banished Chris Powell to Null Space to be replaced by Razor, he grabbed Chris's Darkhawk Amulet and uttered the command "Go! Leave! Depart!". Later after Darkhawk took control of Razor's form, he banished Talon to Null Space and freed Talon's host via the same command. Darkhawk would later use this command again to banish Gyre to Null Space and free his host.
+Trivia: Raptors were not designed to be used by humans. Many of the older races such as the Kree, Skrull and Shi'ar are compatible with the Raptor armor thus giving the Raptor complete control of their host. Chris Powell having free will when he became Darkhawk made him something of an anomaly. If he had been from an older race, Razor would have controlled the raptor armor from the beginning. Chris's anger management issue was one of the reasons he was able to supplant Razor and reassert control of the Raptor armor.
+History:
+The members of the Fraternity of Raptors all possess an amulet and suit of armour. The Fraternity of Raptors protects the long term interests of the Shi'ar Empire in a mission they call "The Great Purpose." The Raptors armor make use of a stream of information called the Datasong which provides them with information about past and future events.; Eventually, the Fraternity grew too powerful and each member was sealed in patches of dark matter throughout Shi'ar territory. After the Skrull secret invasion, several Raptors were freed. They continued their mission and destroyed anyone who stood in their way.; Talon and Razor were successful in assassinating Empress Lilandra of the Shi'ar Empire. Darkhawk (Chris Powell) eventually defeated Razor and Talon and both were banished to Null Space. The Sphinx later arranged for Darkhawk to fight a third member of the Raptors named Gyre who Darkhawk also defeated and banished to Null Space. Talon later returned and convinced Mentor and Plutonia of the Shi'ar Imperial Guard to become raptors using two amulets. Mentor became Strel and Plutonia became Kyte. Talon was last seen posing as the Shi'ar adviser Araki.; Mentor and Plutonia have been seen in the interim in their normal forms. This may indicate Strel and Kyte have been defeated or it may indicate that like the humans the raptor armor was never meant to work with their respective species thus Mentor and Plutonia never lost their free will. Also Talon has shown the ability to shape shift, so Strek and Kyte may just be masquerading as their hosts.; === All-New Guardians of the Galaxy ===; After the Multiverse was reset, the Fraternity had become an independent crew of murderous zealots operating under the radar of the Shi'ar Empire and its current emperor in pursuit of becoming a predominant paramilitary authority throughout the universe. Lacking the Raptor Android armor technology of the true fraternity, their first step was the collection and acquisition of items of power scattered across the galaxies.; One search in particular led them to the decimated remains of Xandar former home base of the Nova Corps. Initially coming there looking for remnants of the Nova Force, all they found was the last Denarian class Nova still on active duty; Robbie Rider. Whom they took aboard their return ship and brainwashed him into service of their corrupted cause through Simulated Reality integration. Accepting him as one of their own over the years of mental conditioning that followed, Robbie rechristened himself as Talonar; in which he offered to secure a pair of Nega-Bands from an impounded Nova Corps detainment facility.; He was beaten to the punch however when Star Lord and his crew unknowingly stole the Raptor vessel he was after. In the meantime, two raptor designates Canorus and Aceptar were dispatched to Earth on his orders to obtain the known Raptor Amulet from Chris Powell. The tables were turned however for in re-activating the Razor Android it merged with its previous host and they were now taking the fight to them.; Tracking back to the Guardians issue, Talonar takes a squadron of Raptors to battle in order to claim his prize, in the skirmish he managed to poison rocket with toxin tipped claws before making off with one half of the bands. Hearing of this, Quill went in search of Talonar and the two clashed in epic battle, each bearing half the power the Nega Bands where they eventually crashed landed on a planetoid as they kept losing their power mid-fight. Though Robbie had Quill on the ropes for a moment, Star-Lord got the upper hand in the end of the skirmish; in exchange for the antidote, his half of the bands and the assassin's life.; Peter opted to spare him and relinquish his find for the cure to his toxin, on his word Peter gave up his band; right before chucking it through a portal into Ultron afflicted territory. It was soon revealed The Raptors had established a sizable spy operation within the galaxy, particularly within the resettling Nova Corps.; Deep cover operatives helped the Fraternity undermine the Nova Corps as well as hide behind the few crooked Novas' shady dealing while relaying sensitive information coming their way to the Raptors. They even paid some of the more corrupt corpsmen to purposely release Thanos from their custody while falsifying a report that he escaped. When news came of a membership revocation on part of the corps, the splinter cell of Raptors were ordered to pave the way for invasion of The Rock by causing internal structural damage while their main forces were on their way to decimate the perceived weakened Nova Corps. This information was falsified however and instead the invading force was decimated by Ant-Man and a Nova Force empowered Rocket.; After learning that the Power Stone was on the planet Xitaung, a contingent of Raptors tried to seize it, leading to a three-way battle between the Raptors, the Nova Corps, and a group of Chitauri lead by Warbringer for the Power Stone. The Guardians of the Galaxy intervened and were able to take control of the Power Stone, causing Xitaung's destruction and forcing the Raptors to retreat.; Seeking to liberate the the real Raptors from the Tree of Shadows, the Fraternity of Raptors took Talon-R to the Shi'ar Outpost IV so he could open a doorway to the Null Space with the power of his Nega-Bands. To their surprise, the real Raptors were already free and no longer needed to bond with a living being to work. The freed Raptors killed all the pretenders save for Talon-R, who used the Nega-Bands to protect himself.; Needing a living being to serve as the willing tribute of a ritual that would unlock the true power of the Starhawk within their ranks, Gyre convinced Talon-R to join them in their quest to bring order to the galaxy. With a subdued Chris Powell serving as the forced tribute, Gyre completed the ritual and transformed Talon-R into the Dark Starhawk using Chris' Raptor Amulet.; Robbie and the Raptors planned to raze Earth but were confronted by Chris, Robbie's brother Nova, and Death's Head. An intense fight broke out when Nova trying his best to reason with his brother, but his words fell on deaf ears. Robbie then killed Gyre, preferring to carrying out his own version of order in the universe. Moments later, Death's Head rigged the power core of the Kree ship the Raptors stole to explode, wiping out the Raptors except for Robbie, though he was stunned. Chris took the opportunity to reclaim his Raptor Amulet. Though badly injured, Robbie was able to flee by striking his Nega-Bands together.; Robbie later assembled a new contingent of Raptors and obtained a new ship. He witnessed the Infinity Stones leave Earth after Adam Warlock gave them sentience and noted that one Stone remained on Earth and that the Raptors needed to find the Stones' new wielders.; Robbie and a team of Raptors tracked down the possessor of the Time Stone, escaped convict Hector Bautista, and kidnapped him. Wolverine and Loki attempted to rescue Hector, but they were overwhelmed by the Raptors' superior numbers. Loki decided to retreat back to Earth and convinced Robbie's mother Gloria Rider to talk some sense into him. However, Robbie unintentionally killed his mother when he thought she was one of Loki's illusions. Gloria's death was reversed when Hector went back in time. Then the Chitauri warrior Warbringer appeared to claim the Time Stone and damaged the Raptors' ship to the point where it started to self-destruct. Robbie, Gloria, Wolverine, Loki, and Hector managed to flee to Earth, leaving Warbringer and the Raptors to perish when the ship exploded.

Of the members of Freedom Force present would be Blob, Avalanche and Spiral.; When Magneto would amass a mutant army to take over the United States, Blob and Avalanche would join his ranks. They would aid Magneto in taking over Washington D.C. and occupying the Capital Building. When Magneto would inadvertently detonate a nuclear warhead hidden in a Sentinel robot, both Blob and Avalanche would be killed in the blast. The fate of Spiral remains unrevealed. Additionally, Avalanche mentioned working with Mystique, suggesting that she was a member of the Freedom Force, but she was not present in any of the events that unfolded on Earth-21993.

+History:
+The Free Mutants were a global network of mutant resistance founded by Lucas Bishop in 2018 in response to increased attacks on mutants by Trask Industries and their Sentinels MK X, machines created explicitly for the purpose of hunting down and killing mutants. By 2023, their membership had dwindled down to only a handful of members, only managing to "survive" Sentinel attacks by Kitty Pryde sending Bishop's mind briefly into the past and warn the Free Mutants of the incoming attack early enough for there to be enough time to escape.; After escaping an attack in Moscow, the Free Mutants met with the surviving members of the X-Men in China to discuss a new plan to defeat the Sentinels. Kitty would use her abilities to send Wolverine's mind back to 1973 and prevent Mystique from assassinating Bolivar Trask, the event that lead to the creation of the Sentinel program. Not too long after Wolverine's mind was sent back in time, the Sentinels found their location and attacked. The following fight claimed the lives of all the remaining Free Mutants except for Kitty as well as the X-Men Storm and Magneto. Just as the Sentinels were about to destroy the remaining mutants, Wolverine finished his mission in the past, erasing the current timeline from existence.

+History:
+The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are members of the Axi-Tun race, a race of beings from the planet Tun. They are Linbythoum, Yentron, Krowtanem and Rowregyynac, known as War, Pestilence, Famine, and Death respectively. They scoured the universe and became a scourge to all they encountered, earning them their biblical names. They sought to conquer the planet Earth because, as it was considered the nexus in the circle of civilized worlds, it had to fall first before those other planets could be conquered. When they attempted to conquer the Earth centuries ago, they initially found it easy pickings as it was populated by savage primitives. However, they were eventually opposed by a race even mightier than their own that defended the people of Earth and, after a century-long battle, drove the Four Horsemen from the planet. They fled back to Tun, where their defeat was seen as weakness and they were exiled from their homeworld.; Seeking to regain favor from their people, the Four Horsemen returned to conquer Earth in the modern age when they were convinced that the beings that defeated them in the past had left the Earth. Upon their arrival, Pestilence unleashed a plague that caused the entire population of Manhattan to go into a deep sleep for 48 hours. When the citizens awoke their city was under siege by rodents, disease, and strange creatures. While the city panicked the Fantastic Four came to the aid of New Yorkers and clashed with Pestilence directly. When the Thing resisted the debilitating disease that Pestilence was unleashing upon him, he caused the alien to vanish with a single blow. The FF's leader Mister Fantastic speculated that the Thing, by resisting Pestilence's infection, had become a living anti-body that Pestilence could neither subdue or control so he had been forced to vanish. Reed then split up the team to tackle the other members of the Four Horsemen.; The Human Torch and Medusa went to Africa where they found that War was escalating a combat zone by providing weapons to both sides of the conflict. Johnny and Medusa stopped the warring sides and clashed with War, defeating him in combat. But before he vanished, War removed his mask showing all gathered the real face of war: themselves. In Cambodia, Mister Fantastic and the Thing clashed with Famine, who was making the people of the country starve even though there was an abundance of food. After forcing the people to eat bowls of rice, Reed smothered Famine with his own body, until their foe vanished as well. A reference to an ancient curse that Famine had made during their battle had caused Reed to deduce that the beings that defeated the Four Horsemen in the past had set up protection devices to banish them from Earth provided they were opposed. The group reunited and traveled to Mount Everest where they found Death. He created death constructs of each member of the Fantastic Four. Realizing that fighting their own death images would be lethal, the FF switched opponents, destroying three of these horrifying death parodies of themselves. Medusa then threw the Thing-construct into Death's body, striking another victory for the heroes as Death was banished from the Earth as well.; The Four Horsemen were later captured by the Stranger and imprisoned on his laboratory world. When the the Stranger's world was under attack by the being known as the Over-Mind, this foe freed the Four Horsemen and other captives. The Four Horsemen were later defeated by the Protector of the Universe known as Quasar.; If the Four Horsemen were re-incarcerated or if they managed to escape remains uncertain. The group has not been seen in many years.

Who was set to testify against Timothy Lee for the murder of a prostitute.; Timothy Lee was being framed by the Kingpin for the murder, with the assistance of the Assistant District Attorney Walker and Pig Malone. Which was due to Timothy Lee expanding his operations outside of Chinatown at the Kingpin's expense. ADA Walker got Elektra to protect Timothy, who did so successfully, killing two of the Four Winds members. She then killed Pig Malone upon learning that he was the one who killed the prostitute and then witnessing him brutalizing another prostitute, thereby destroying the case against Timothy Lee.

+History:
+The Freelancers were a group of superpowered security contractors hired by Roxxon to shut down the protesters at the Angeles National Forest that opposed the company's intention to build a pipeline that connected their West Coast headquarters to a new deep-water drilling platform off the coast.; As they prepared to escalate the rally and blame it on the activists, the Freelancers were confronted by the Champions. The Champions were distracted by the Freelancer's niceties, and were caught off guard when Cursed Cass set off an explosive. While most of the Freelancers confronted the Champions, Panic induced fear on the protesters and Hotness slipped away to cause a forest fire. Panic was knocked down by Viv, and Cursed Cass was knocked far away by Hulk.; The confrontation between the Freelancers and the Champions was abruptly interrupted when two monsters originating from the Leviathon Tide landed on the forest, knocking down Hotness in the process, and prompting both teams to work together to stop the creatures. Might and Crush proved essential to defeat a molten creature. The Freelancers remained behind while the Champions hurried to subdue a monster that had landed on the coast, which coincidentally destroyed the drilling platform the pipeline was going to be used for, potentially leaving the Freelancers without a paycheck.; The Freelancers were later hired for other jobs, including disrupting a wage protest in Durham, North Carolina and displacing homeless people from a tent city in Los Angeles, California. The Freelancers invited two of the homeless people they displaced to their compound, and manipulated them into fighting each other, later using Panic's powers to have them tell the authorities that the Champions had assaulted them.

+History:
+In a possible future, the Martian Masters invaded the Earth, and Wakanda became the last stronghold of humanity. The Freemen were a gladiatorial duo of slaves that managed to escape from captivity, Erik Killraven and M'Bakshulla the White. Fueled by resentment towards Wakanda because he and his mother had fallen victims to the Martians after being exiled, Killraven sought the Time Diamonds and used them to travel back in time. He intended to destabilize Wakanda so that it would fall to the Martians like the rest of the world when the invaders came.; During their first attack, Killraven and M'Bakshulla destroyed the garden of the Heart-Shaped Herb and killed King T'Chaka, the Black Panther. Without the Heart-Shaped Herb there could be no Black Panther, and the nation was thrown into disarray. The Freemen escaped to the outskirts of Wakanda, but they were tracked down by the returned prince T'Challa, who became possessed by Zarathos and killed M'Bakshulla, leaving Killraven alone to carry his plan to debilitate Wakanda, though he would ultimately fail and be killed by the Ghost Panther.

Satana used a man named Richard Corbett a former soldier of the United States Army to assassinate Miles Gorney. Satana learned too late that Gorney wanted to be killed in order to die a martyr.; Satana trying to make her way back to Hell via other means, entered the Cave of the Seven Winds where the Four sent many Demons to attack her, but together with her associate Zannarth they were able to make it to the Four. After discovering the body of one of the Four, Trachos, Zannarth was killed. Satana using her power forced the remaining three to transform into their human selves where she then sucked their lifeforce from them, killing them. Soon after Trachos appeared revealing that he was Miles Gorney and that all of it was a charade, the four, the separation of Satana from her father, and his deaths before disappearing.; After defeating the demon Agathon, Satana was able to figure out that Miles Gorney was her father, Satan. Satan then revealed to her that the whole thing was a way to test her loyalty to him, her final task being to take the soul of the priest Michael Heron, but Satana didn't go through with the deed and allowed Michael to pass into death which allowed his soul to go to Heaven.

+Species / origin: When the Sandman and Trapster escaped prison together they rescued a helpless Wizard, adrift due to his malfunctioning anti-gravity discs, along the way. Together they formed an alliance dedicated to humiliating their mutual enemies, the Fantastic Four, by becoming an evil, mirror counterpart. Determined to form their own quartet, the criminal trio went through a series of brief recruits, none of whom proved satisfactory as a fourth member.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Subterranean Manhattan headquarters; Formerly:; Queens water tower; Wizard's suburban New York home and cabin
+Weapons: Individual members' weapons
+Transportation: Various vehicles built by Wizard
+History:
+===Origins===; The genesis of the Frightful Four began with three villains who commonly battled the Fantastic Four's youngest member the Human Torch. The Wizard, the Sandman, and Paste-Pot Pete were all defeated at the hands of the Torch. During his last clash with the Human Torch, the Wizard was sent floating uncontrollably into the upper atmosphere when one of his anti-gravity disks failed to work. This coincided with a break out by the Sandman and Paste-Pot Pete who had hijacked a plane to escape. While flying through the air, they spotted the Wizard during his ascent and rescued him from suffocation in the upper atmosphere. Realizing that they all had unique powers and a mutual hatred of the Fantastic Four, the Wizard suggested that they form a group that would be the evil counterparts to the Fantastic Four.; Needing a fourth member to their group, the Wizard had heard of a strange woman hiding out on a remote island on the Mediterranean who had complete control of her hair. Travelling there, the Wizard convinced Madame Medusa to join their ranks. Her past a mystery, Medusa agreed to join them and the Frightful Four was born. In order to keep Medusa under their control, the Wizard implanted a device that kept her lost memories from resurfacing. Their formation came just after the Fantastic Four's Mister Fantastic and Invisible Girl had announced that they were engaged to be married. After an engagement party, the Frightful Four attacked the Fantastic Four's Baxter Building headquarters. Although they incapacitated the Thing, Mister Fantastic, and the Invisible Girl they were too late to stop the Thing's girlfriend Alicia Masters from sending out a signal flare to the Human Torch who was away from the building at the time. Although the Frightful Four used anti-gravity disks to end the Fantastic Four in the same way the Wizard almost perished, the Torch came to their rescue. Outclassed by the veteran heroes, the Frightful Four decided to retreat in the ensuing battle, setting their anti-gravity craft to self-destruct providing cover for the group to escape. The Frightful Four were later pulled forward in time by Aron the Rogue Watcher to battle the future Fantastic Four and their allies Fantastic Force. When Aron's plot to destroy the universe to recreate his own reality was stopped, the Frightful Four were returned to their appropriate time and place with no memory of what happened.; ===Early Schemes===; Regrouping after their first defeat, the Wizard quickly organized a new plan to destroy their mutual enemies. During this period Paste-Pot Pete reinvented himself with a new name, the Trapster, in an attempt to sound more menacing. They captured the Invisible Girl and kept her prisoner on deserted military outpost in the South Pacific. When the Fantastic Four came to rescue their teammate they fell into the evil FF's trap. While the heroes rescued Sue, the Wizard activated his q-bomb while his team fled the scene. While the Fantastic Four survived thanks to one of the Invisible Girl's invisible force-fields, the radiation from the blast stripped them of their powers. The Frightful Four then returned to the Baxter Building to confirm if the Fantastic Four were dead or not. However they fled the scene when they confused the arrival of the Asgardian warrior Balder the Brave on Earth to be the Human Torch. The Fantastic Four survived the assault, and eventually restored their powers.; However following the restoration of their powers, the Fantastic Four's Thing was angered that he once again lost his humanity and quit the team. Slipping out of town on the back of a truck, the Thing fell asleep as the vehicle crossed over into New Jersey and a bumpy road threw him from the flat bed. The sleeping Thing was discovered by the Frightful Four who quickly kidnapped their sleeping enemy. By this time the Wizard had developed an ID machine and used it to change the Thing's personality so that he was evil. Although the Frightful Four bickered and fought among themselves, the group were able to defeat the remaining members of the Fantastic Four came to rescue their friend, they were easily captured with the aid of the Thing. The Wizard then reminded the Thing that Mister Fantastic was responsible for his transformation, sending the Thing into a frenzy. When the Fantastic Four attempted to break free another fight broke out. While Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Girl managed to escape, the Human Torch was captured and apparently enthralled by the ID machine as well. In reality the ID machine was damaged by the Invisible Girl and the Torch was only pretending to be under the Wizard's thrall, allowing his teammates to capture the Thing and escape. Mister Fantastic then created a device to restore the Thing back to normal. When the Frightful Four finally saw through the Torch's trick and attacked the Baxter Building, the Thing had full recovered and turned the tide of battle. While the male members of the group were apprehended, Medusa managed to escape in their anti-gravity ship.; While the Sandman and Trapster were arrested, but the Wizard managed to escape by feigning an injury and fleeing while being transported to the hospital. The Wizard then tracked Medusa down to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters in Westchester County where she was under the protective care of the X-Men. During the ensuing battle, the X-Men's leader Professor X discovered that Medusa was being mechanically controlled by the Wizard. Removing the device from the base of her neck allowed Medusa to fight off the Wizard's influence and defeat him in battle and he was apprehended. The Frightful Four then began the first of many searches for a new member. They selected the Beetle to join their group. However, the Beetle's membership proved to be short lived when the Fantastic Four and Spider-Man delivered a group a quick defeat when the Invisible Girl used her powers to turn the Wizard, Trapster and Beetle's pants transparent to embarrass them. The Wizard, Trapster and Sandman found themselves imprisoned at State Penitentiary and instantly began plotting a breakout. Shortly thereafter, the Wizard and Sandman staged a break-out, while the Sandman escape the Wizard was recaptured, confident that with the Sandman now free their freedom was eventually assured.; ===Seeking Replacements===; When all the members of the Frightful Four were free from prison they regrouped and began plotting against the Fantastic Four again. Rejoining them was Medusa who, unknown to the Wizard and the others, had since recovered her memory and was now an ally of the Fantastic Four. By this point Mister Frantastic and the Invisible Girl had a son, named Franklin, and were seeking a babysitter to care for the boy whenever they were on a mission. When they agreed to visit the witch known as Agatha Harkness at her home in Whisper Hill, the Fantastic Four were attacked by their evil counterparts. It was during this battle that Medusa revealed her true allegiances and turned on the Wizard and his allies. The Frightful Four proved no match for Harkness, who was a powerful mystic, and easily trounced the remaining members of the Frightful Four, securing her job as Franklin's caretaker. This Frightful Four made an attempt to force Medusa to rejoin their ranks upon learning that her lover -- Black Bolt, ruler of the Inhumans -- was incapable of speech without destroying anything in his path. The Wizard at this point had converted his ID machine into a ray gun in the hopes of making it a more practical weapon. The evil FF convinced Medusa that Quadranium-99 could cure Black Bolt. In exchange for the material, Medusa promised to rejoin their ranks. This plan ultimately failed when Medusa figured out that the Wizard was fooling her and that the Quadranium was going to be used to power his new ID ray. Medusa then fled from their ship with the Quadranium and returned it to the United Nations facility in France where it had been stolen from.; Without Medusa, the Frightful Four once again attempted to recruit a fourth member into their group. At the recommendation of the Sandman they attacked the Baxter Building to access their portal to the Negative Zone to free his onetime ally Blastaar. While the other members of the Fantastic Four were already in the Negative Zone trying to stop Doctor Doom from acquiring the Cosmic Control Rod belonging to Negative Zone leader Annihilus, the Frightful Four attacked. They easily incapacitated the Invisible Girl and pulled Blastaar from the Negative Zone. They did not anticipate that the young boy named Rick Jones was present and were unprepared when he clashed his Nega-Bands together summoning his ally Captain Marvel to Earth. Despite this surprise attack the Frightful Four succeeded in defeating Captain Marvel. However the addition of Blastaar proved to be short lived as an insult towards the Negative Zone angered Blastaar sufficiently that he attacked his comrades. During the ensuing battle, the rest of the Fantastic Four returned home and defended it from the invaders. While Blastaar was knocked back into the Negative Zone, the rest of the Frightful Four were easily defeated and turned over to the authorities.; The Frightful Four reunited once again and attempted to manipulate the Negative Zone once again. To this end they captured Spider-Man and hypnotized him into joining their ranks. They used Spider-Man to infiltrate the Baxter Building when only the Human Torch was home. The Torch was easily subdued allowing the Wizard to gain access to the Negative Zone portal. This plan backfired when Annihilus attempted to use this intrusion to free himself from the Zone and onto Earth. Ultimately the Torch freed Spider-Man from the Frightful Four's control and the pair subdued their foes. Spider-Man then used his scientific know-how to deactivate the Negative Zone portal before leaving the Frightful Four with the Torch to turn over to the authorities.; ===Thundra===; The Frightful Four soon obtained their first new recurring member, Thundra, a Femazon of the alternate future of Earth-715. The Wizard had promised her the opportunity to battle the most powerful man on Earth in exchange for helping them destroy the Fantastic Four. The quartet attack the Thing at a construction site. Although their attack was interrupted by Medusa, who had come to the Thing's aid, Thundra provided them with the upper hand and both the Thing and Medusa were subdued. Thundra's membership was not without its own troubles as she did not wish to allow the Frightful Four to eliminate the Thing as she viewed men as inferiors. While the evil FF conceded on that point for now, they attacked the Baxter Building, subduing both the Thing and Mister Fantastic. When they discovered the Invisible Girl with her son Franklin, Thundra refused to allow any harm come to the child and fought back against her opponents. Ultimately the Fantastic Four broke free and fought their evil counterparts into retreat once again. In the aftermath of the battle the Invisible Girl left the group over differences with Mister Fantastic, taking their child with her, Medusa then took her place on the team.; However Thundra was not finished with the Thing, seeking to utterly crush him once and for all she challenged him to a one-on-one fight to the finish. In order to force the Thing to agree to the battle, Thundra captured his girlfriend Alicia Masters and left her in the hands of the Frightful Four through the duration of the battle. While the battle took place at Shea Stadium, the Thing was briefly transformed back into human form by Mister Fantastic so that Thundra would forfeit the battle and flee. Meanwhile, the Human Torch rescued Alicia, forcing the Frightful Four to once again flee the scene. The Frightful Four later broke into the Baxter Building waiting to ambush the Fantastic Four after they seemingly lost the Invisible Girl to their sometimes foe the Sub-Mariner. Although the Frightful Four had the upper hand, Thundra's continued differences with the group -- particularly their constant sexism toward her -- prompted her to turn on them. Thundra then helped free the Fantastic Four and defeat her former comrades. The Wizard, Trapster and Sandman were then contained at the Baxter Building before the Fantastic Four went on to battle the Sub-Mariner who appeared to be calling for another invasion of the surface world. As it turned out these was merely a mock battle that was staged so that Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Girl could reconcile their marriage after a lengthy separation.; After escaping captivity again, the three founding members of the Frightful Four reformed, and during an extended absence of their foes put out a classified ad seeking a new fourth member, telling all applicants to meet at the Baxter Building. The Fantastic Four and their ally the Impossible Man soon learned of this and rushed to their headquarters to confront the Frightful Four. While the Impossible Man was distracted by a television, the Fantastic Four were quickly defeated and incapacitated. The Frightful Four then began screening potential members. They rejected the powerless Osprey, and the heroic Texas Twister before Thundra came crashing in on them. Thundra warned her former teammates that the Fantastic Four were off limits, but she was quickly subdued and made a prisoner alongside her new allies. The Wizard and the others then rejected the pyrophobic Captain Ultra, before they were attacked by Tigra who briefly freed the Fantastic Four. This escape attempt was then quashed by the most promising recruit to potentially join up with the Frightful Four: the Brute, Reed Richards' double on the distant world of Counter-Earth. The Brute helped defeat the Fantastic Four and their allies, securing himself as a member of the group. The Frightful Four then attempted to hold their heroic counterparts hostage for a massive ransom. When the governments of the United States refused to pay the ransom the Wizard decided that it was time to finally kill his hated foes. However, before he could activate his device the broadcast day had ended cutting off the television transmission that kept the Impossible Man preoccupied throughout the entire battle. Seeking to boost the signal, the Impossible Man attempted to boost the signal causing a power surge powerful enough to temporarily cut the power in the Baxter Building to allow the Fantastic Four and their allies to break free. The Frightful Four were easily trounced by the good FF, Thundra, and Tigra. The Wizard, Trapster and Sandman were captured once again, while the Brute was seemingly lost in the Negative Zone.; ===More Failed Recruitment===; The Frightful Four were quickly incarcerated again, but just as quickly broke free while being processed by the authorities thanks to the Wizard's ingenuity. The group then began seeking out yet another member. They selected Spider-Man's longtime foe Electro. After succeeding in a test run of his powers, they admitted Electro into their group. Seeking to get revenge against both Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four, the new Frightful Four went to the Statue of Liberty. Electro then used one of the Wizard's devices that imitated the Human Torch's powers in order to trick Spider-Man into meeting them there. Expecting the Human Torch, Spider-Man was instead ambushed and overpowered by the Frightful Four who easily defeated the wall-crawler. The Tapster then disguised himself as Spider-Man in order to infiltrate the Baxter Building where he easily subdued the Human Torch and the Thing before disabling the security systems. The Frightful Four then made an attack on Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Girl, but the real Spider-Man managed to break free and join the fray. With the regrouped Fantastic Four, the evil Frightful Four were easily defeated and once again turned over to the authorities.; The Wizard was later broken out of Ryker's Island prison by the Sub-Mariner's foe Llyra. Llyra required the Wizard to defeat his old foe and he agreed to assist her provided that he help her destroy his old foe Spider-Man. While Llyra posed as a new tenant that Peter Parker would find attractive. Tracking the wall-crawler with a special device to his civilian home Llyra and the Wizard attempted to trap him by setting the apartment building ablaze. Spider-Man managed to save his fellow tenants, foiling the Wizard's plans. Llyra had the Wizard break out his fellow Frightful Four members, Sandman and the Trapster to help in her plot to get revenge against the Sub-Mariner. Llyra's activities got the attention of her prey who came to New York. The Sub-Mariner detected Llyra's presence and attacked the hotel where Peter Parker and his fellow tenants were put up for the night. This led to a battle between Sub-Mariner, Spider-Man and the Frightful Four. The villains then blasted the two heroes with a weapon provided by Llyra.; The device succeeded in transferring Spider-Man's Spider-Sense to the Sub-Mariner. Despite this handicap, the two heroes defeated the Frightful Four. While the Wizard and his cohorts were turned over to the authorities, Namor took Llyra into his possession to answer for her crimes in Atlantis. The Wizard attempted to revive the Frightful Four by hiring an entirely new members. This time around he hired the Taskmaster, Constrictor and mercenary Wade Wilson. This new iteration of the Frightful Four lasted for only one mission, wherein they attacked the Baxter Building only to be driven away by the Thing and his godson Franklin.; The Wizard formed yet another version of the team which included Hydro-Man, Titania, and Klaw. Their attack on the Fantastic Four coincided with the end of the so-called Inferno crisis. At this time the Fantastic Four was led by the Thing and included the Human Torch, and She-Thing. With the Human Torch incapable of controlling his flame powers due to the Inferno, and the recent departure of their teammate Crystal, Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman returned to the ranks of the group. The Frightful Four attacked just as Mister Fantastic used a device to restore the Torch back to normal. During the battle, the Thing was knocked into the same device, the resulting explosion resulted in the Thing being reverted back to his human form. The Wizard allowed the Fantastic Four to defeat them and his team retreated. When the Fantastic Four tracked their evil counterparts to their hideout, it was right into the Wizard's trap. The Wizard had discovered that Aron the Rogue Watcher was observing the Fantastic Four. Aron incapacitated the Fantastic Four and arrived with his minion the Dragon Man. However Aron was only interested in collecting the Fantastic Four's DNA samples and quickly teleported away. With the Four defeated, the Wizard and his minions placed them in cryogenic suspension tubes. However they were located by Ben Grimm, who freed his comrades and freed them. The Fantastic Four then quickly defeated the Frightful Four. But, when they attempted to bring the group to the authorities both teams were teleported to another dimension. There they were confronted by Aron who revealed that he had created clones of the Fantastic Four to control and do his bidding and he incapacitated both teams.; The Fantastic Four and the Frightful Four were then placed in suspended animation while the clones of the heroes ran amok. Eventually the Human Torch's powers allowed him to free himself from cryogenic suspension. When he placed Aron in suspension and freed his comrades a fail-safe not only freed the Frightful Four, but teleported the Fantastic Four clones to Aron's hideout in the Rocky Mountains. The Frightful Four were forced to team up with their enemies to stop the clones that suddenly attacked. During the course of the battle Aron freed himself. He then revealed that he had changed his plans, he teleported the Frightful Four to the Vault prison and the Fantastic Four back home. Aron then disappeared with his clones intent on monitoring their dreams for his own amusement. Not long after this, the Wizard and the Trapster reunited and sought to bring the Sandman back into the fold.; When they found the Sandman they offered him to rejoin them, but the Sandman was making an effort to reform at the time. When he refused the Wizard threatened to inform the authorities of his location, as the Sandman was still wanted at the time, but the Sandman warned the Wizard that the biggest mistake he could make was being in the same prison as him if that happened. The Wizard then conceded, allowing the Sandman to go his own way. The Wizard and the Trapster later recruited Dreadknight and the Man-Bull. This new incarnation smuggled themselves into Canada in order to kidnap Nobel Prize winning physicist Dr. Cargill during his appearance at the Calgary Stampede. This kidnapping attempt was foiled by Spider-Man (who was there in his civilian identity Peter Parker, then a photographer for the Daily Bugle), the visiting Rangers and the novice hero Turbine.; Following the defeat of the short-lived Fearsome Foursome, the Wizard was angered that a group formed using a similar name to his own creation. As such the Wizard broke out of the Vault and gathered a new Frightful Four which consisted of Klaw, Miss Thing, and the Red Ghost and his Super-Apes. With none of the members seeking to to be a subordinate, the Wizard decided that they would compete to see who was fit to rule by attacking the Fantastic Four. At the time the FF were reeling from the apparent death of their leader Mister Fantastic and included Ant-Man among their ranks at the time. Luring the Fantastic Four to the Wizard's home, each member battled a different member of the Fantastic Four. The group was ultimately defeated when the Wizard, while battling the Human Torch, trapped his foe in a pocket of non-causality. When the Torch goaded the Wizard into attacking him, the Wizard's Wonder-Gloves caused feed back to the non-causality field. This in turn sent a wave across the house revitalizing the Fantastic Four. Utterly defeated, this incarnation of the Frightful Four fled and parted ways following their defeat.; ===Half-Stable===; What followed was an extended period of time where the Wizard and the Trapster worked for a prolonged period together usually changing up the other two members of the group during each scheme. Meanwhile, during his time away from the Frightful Four, the Sandman had redeemed himself as a hero, becoming a member of Silver Sable's Wild Pack, as well as becoming a reserve member in the Avengers. Disturbed by this trend, the Wizard kidnapped the Sandman and exposed him to his newly rebuilt ID machine. This restored the Sandman's previous persona, and although he did not rejoin the Wizard at this point, this would cause the Sandman to eventually return to his criminal ways. The Wizard, Trapster and Sandman then got involved in what a staged attempt on the life of Senator Stewart Ward. This attempt was to boost Ward's popularity, an orchestrated event that was made successful with the interference of Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four. However the attempt ruined the Sandman's precarious cover, ruining any further pretensions that he had reformed for good. The Wizard and Trapster's part on Senator Ward's scheme were later foiled by Spider-Man.; The Wizard and Trapster then formed a new version of the Frightful Four which included She-Thing and the Punisher robot. They took over the Keewazi reservation in Silver Rock Springs, Oklahoma, seeking to find the location of lost gold and jewels of the Manidoog god Tomazooma. This plot was foiled by the Fantastic Four when they were summoned by their ally Wyatt Wingfoot and they were apprehended. Also during this time, the Wizard sought to get revenge against Deadpool for bungling a previous Frightful Four mission. Working with former failed Frightful Four inductees Taskmaster and Constrictor, as well as Deadpool's ex-girlfriend the shapeshifter known as Copycat who posed as Titania. Ultimately their plan came to fruition when Deadpool exposed the plot and the blew up his home the Deadlounge, although Deadpool survived.; The Wizard later formed yet another incarnation of the Frightful Four along with the Trapster. This group also included the Wizard's estranged ex-wife Salamandra. To this end, the Wizard wanted to exploit his daughter Cole to lure the Fantastic Four into a trap. The Wizard also re-recruited Hydro-Man onto the team after he was defeated in a battle against Spider-Man and the Human Torch. The Wizard then boosted Hydro-Man's powers but made him dependent on the Wizard to live. The Wizard's next part of his scheme was to secure Cole's loyalty by manipulating her into a romance with the Human Torch. The end result of this hook-up was that Cole would help the Frightful Four infiltrate the Baxter Building and then the Wizard plotted for her to get injured making it appear that the Fantastic Four were responsible. Cole held up her end of the mission, having succeeded in arranging a meeting with the Torch after romancing him on an online chatroom. Once admitted into the Baxter Building, she used her special transporter ring to get the Frightful Four past the Baxter Building's security systems. During the course of the battle the Wizard realized that his daughter had the ability to control the gravity of objects although it affected her personal mass in the process. This caused him to abruptly change his plans and when the Trapster attempted to eliminate his daughter as planned, the Wizard turned on the Trapster, trapping him in a temporal loop seemingly forever. After filming the defeat of the Fantastic Four for a world audience the Wizard then teleported his team away. Back at base, Cole was disgusted that her father would see her as merely an experiment and fled seeking out the Fantastic Four to cure herself of her condition and defeat her father and his minions. In the ensuing battle, Hydro-Man, Salamandra, the Wizard, and Cole seemingly perished when Cole increased her mass to a massive level causing them to slam into the waters outside of New York City.; The Frightful Four remained disbanded for a time, although some of its members would work again in the future. Both the Wizard and the Trapster were pawns in Lucia von Bardas' revenge scheme against Nick Fury for previously overthrowing her as ruler of Latveria The Wizard, Trapster, Klaw, Hydro-Man, Salamandra, and the Red Ghost were all among a group of super-villains who were gathered by the Puppet Master and the Mad Thinker who were attempting to gather an army of villains to battle the Fantastic Four. This was a failed endeavor as none of the gathered villains wished to participate and left, unknowingly leaving the DNA samples that the two organizers of this plan really sought. These DNA sampled ended up in the hands of the Fantastic Four who came to believe that they would die within two year unless they permanently incarcerated their foes. The Wizard, Klaw, Hydro-Man and Red Ghost were all among those captured and placed in a new Vault prison built in the Negative Zone. When the Mad Thinker staged a massive breakout they were opposed by the Fantastic Four, the She-Hulk and Hercules. When the fighting was too much both the Wizard and Red Ghost agreed to return to their cells. The only former member of the Frightful Four to escape that day was the Klaw.; Sometime late the Wizard regrouped the Frightful Four along with the Trapster, Hydro-Man, and Titania; once again seeking to eliminate the Fantastic Four. It was during this period that Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman were on their second honeymoon on the moon of Titan while their spots in the Fantastic Four were filled by the Black Panther and his wife Storm. While Reed was away getting assistance on Earth to decipher a strange meteor he discovered the Wizard planted a bomb on his shuttle before going to Titan with his team and taking the Invisible Woman hostage. He then issued a challenge to the Fantastic Four to face him. Suspecting a trap the Black Panther had the group remotely access Reed's ship causing the bomb to go off and the group went to Titan in another vessel. When the Fantastic Four arrived, the Wizard and his allies were not prepared to face the Black Panther and Storm fighting alongside Mister Fantastic, the Thing, and the Human Torch. However, the Wizard had a surprise of his own: a fifth member he had hidden, Klaw. The Frightful Four' secret weapon was defeated by the Thing thanks to some Vibranium earplugs that made him immune to Klaw's powers. The rest of the group were easily trounced. A vengeful Invisible Woman then threatened to end the Wizard's life by using her powers to cause him a heart attack, and the fear of her doing so caused the Wizard to faint in fear. The Fantastic Four then left Titan to attend to other matters.; ===Fall of the Hulks===; For years the Wizard had been part of a group of super-criminal geniuses known as the Intelligencia which included the Leader, MODOK, the Red Ghost, and the Mad Thinker. The end result of their scheme was to use a combination of gamma radiation and cosmic energy to create an army of super-powerful beings like the Hulk to conquer the world. One of their pawns in this scheme was the mysterious Red Hulk, who ultimately betrayed the Intelligencia to work with Bruce Banner, the Hulk's alter ego.; During the initial planning phase of this plan the Wizard sought to reform his Frightful Four after learning that Thundra was back in his native time, he planned on using her in this latest incarnation. The Wizard then gathered Klaw and the Trapster and approached Thundra asking her to rejoin their group. By this point she had allied herself with the Red Hulk and summoned him. The three villains were no match for the Hulk and Thundra and fled. Soon the Intelligencia learned that Thundra had a daughter, with DNA taken from the Hulk, in the future of Earth-8009. This daughter, Lyra, had come to the modern age after being shunned in her own era. When it appeared that Lyra held animosity toward her mother and the Wizard seemingly convinced her to join his Frightful Four after sending the savage Red She-Hulk upon her to illustrate that the world feared Hulks. Lyra joined the group, but the Wizard and his cohorts were unaware that this was only a means to find her missing friend, the original She-Hulk, Jennifer Walters.; Part of the Intelligencia's plot was to kidnap the 10 greatest minds in the world. The Frightful Four were then sent to capture Mister Fantastic of the Fantastic Four. Although their attack on the Baxter Building was complicated with interference from the Red Hulk, the Frightful Four were successful in their mission. Lyra soon betrayed the Frightful Four after finding the She-Hulk imprisoned aboard the Intelligencia's helicarrier, and freeing her. Ultimately, the Intelligencia's plans began falling apart thanks to the interference of the Red Hulk and Bruce Banner. This ended with a final battle between the true Hulk and his red counterpart. During the ensuing clash the Wizard, Trapster, Klaw, the Red Ghost, and Mad Thinker all attempted to rob the US Treasury, but their attempt was interrupted by the two warring behemoths.; ===Fractured===; Around this time the Fantastic Four discovered that the Wizard was creating clones of himself. One, the young boy known as Bentley-23 was recovered and taken in by the group. Mister Fantastic became determined to raise the boy in the hopes that he would become something greater than the original Wizard. When Richards later formed his Future Foundation, Bentley-23 was among the founding class. By this point the Wizard was becoming mentally unstable, due to a tumor growing in his brain.; The members of the Frightful Four went their own ways only to be hunted down by the She-Hulk and Lyra and imprisoned at the old Gamma Base in Death Valley, Nevada. The Trapster was captured in Las Vegas, the Wizard in Monte Carlo, the Red Ghost in St. Petersburg, and the Mad Thinker and Klaw in Switzerland. The Wizard briefly broke out and attempted to get revenge against Lyra, but he was quickly recaptured.; The various members of the Frightful Four soon broke free but did not officially reform. The Wizard, Red Ghost and Klaw remained with the Intelligencia inventing the Zero Cannon. They were soon infiltrated by the Chameleon (who took Klaw's place) and were attacked by Doctor Octopus' Sinister Six which included Sandman among their ranks. The Intelligencia barely survived the encounter. The Wizard, Klaw, Red Ghost and Trapster were also present during an Intelligencia meeting aboard a ship on the North Sea. This meeting was interrupted by the mercenary Deadpool, but they again survived the encounter.; The Wizard soon became obsessed with proving himself to his clone, Bentley-23, coming to regard him as a son. During a period in which the Fantastic Four were missing in action, four replacements were selected to act in their stead: Ant-Man, Medusa, She-Hulk, and pop-star Darla Deering. To this end, the Wizard sought to create the polar opposite to the Fantastic Four. Enslaving Medusa again, he also recruited Blastaar and absconded with Bentley to form a new Frightful Four. Creating a bizarre version of the Baxter Building in the Negative Zone, the Wizard transported the real building there as well. The replacement Fantastic Four and the Future Foundation then went on a rescue mission to free Bentley. Bentley turned against his own father helping the group free Medusa and incapacitated Blastaar. With his Frightful Four "family" defeated, the Wizard was turned over to Black Bolt, king of the Inhumans, for punishment.; ===Superior Carnage===; With his mind further addled by the Black Bolt, the Wizard decided to form yet another Frightful Four in order to prove himself one last time for his "son" Bentley-23. Inspired by the United States using the Venom symbiote to create Agent Venom, the Wizard recruited the Klaw and broke into a maximum security penitentiary to liberate Carnage to create the opposite. While the Carnage symbiote was alive, it's host Cletus Kasady was brain dead at the time, thus forcing Klaw to incapacitate it. The Wizard also enlisted the aid of crippled criminal scientist Karl Malus to try and contain the Carnage symbiote. This proved impossible since it was grafted to a brain-dead host, and so the Wizard had it forcibly grafted to Malus instead. Enslaving Malus and the symbiote as a new "Superior" Carnage, the Wizard's Frightful Four was now complete. His first step to grander schemes was attacking New York City hall and taking control of it from mayor J. Jonah Jameson. Although they successfully stormed city hall and took it over they were soon opposed by Spider-Man and his henchmen.; During the course of the battle the Wizard's mind probe device learned that the Spider-Man he was fighting was really Doctor Octopus in Spider-Man's body. The new Superior Carnage managed to free himself and seemingly slew Klaw, disbursing his sound form. The resulting sonic blast blasted the Carnage symbiote from the body of Karl Malus and it grafted itself on the Wizard instead. Spider-Man proved no match against the Carnage/Wizard symbiosis and it seemingly slew Karl Malus. The battle seemed to be in the Wizard/Carnage's favor until Klaw intervened with another sound blast before his consciousness was seemingly lost forever in the so-called sound wall. Although the Wizard was recaptured and the Carnage symbiote contained, the authorities quickly discovered that the experience cured the Wizard of the tumor that was slowly eating away at his mind.; ===The Fall of the Fantastic Four===; Recently it was revealed that the so-called Quiet Man had apparently been manipulating the Fantastic Four and their foes for years due his obsession with the Invisible Woman and the perception that Mister Fantastic stole her from him during their college years. The full scope of these manipulations and how they might have affected the Frightful Four and its individual members over the years is as yet unexplained. However, the Quiet Man quickly began setting off a series of events that he hoped would ultimately discredit and destroy the Fantastic Four. This began with an army of creatures that invaded New York. This battle ended with the Human Torch losing his powers thanks to a device that Reed used to incapacitate the invaders. While the Fantastic Four were still reeling from this loss, the Quiet Man hired the Wizard to form new versions of the Frightful Four to attack the group. This first group of attackers consisted of members of the Wrecking Crew including the Wrecker, Thunderball, and Bulldozer. This incarnation of the Frightful Four was defeated thanks to the combined efforts of the Fantastic Four and their FF back-ups. However, as a result of the battle SHIELD took possession of the Baxter Building and custody of the Future Foundation children.; The Quiet Man then continued his campaign against the Fantastic Four, eventually framing the Thing for the murder of the Puppet Master. Found guilty the Thing was incarcerated at Ryker's Island. The Quiet Man also orchestrated events so that Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman began working for one of his alter-egos, the futurist John Eden. The Wizard was next dispatched to Chicago with a Frightful Four consisting of the female members of the Salem's Seven: Gazelle, Vertigo, and Reptilla. Mister Fantastic had to face off this group alone, and challenge due to the magical nature of their powers. However he defeated this new incarnation of the evil FF with the assistance of the Scarlet Witch. By this point the Quiet Man was reaching his end game, using his Avengers from Counter-Earth to capture Franklin Richards, the Wizard was charged with overseeing the manipulation of the boy's powers for a full out invasion of Earth. This reunited the Wizard with Bentley-23, whom he tried to convince to join the Quiet Man.; When the Quiet Man launched his invasion of mutated creatures all over Earth, Bentley-23 turned on his creator and helped free Franklin and the other members of the Future Foundation and escape. This act of rebellion impress the Wizard who gave his clone his blessing. Later, the Wizard recruited a new Frightful Four team consisting of She-Thing, Thundra, and the Sandman to assist in fighting the Quiet Man's invasion of Earth. Ultimately the Fantastic Four ended the Quiet Man's invasion once and for all.

+Frightful Four (Earth-98)
+Kind: team
+Page: Frightful Four (Earth-98)
+Full name: Frightful Four
+First appearance: Fantastic Four Annual Vol 1 1998
+Created by: Karl Kesel; Stuart Immonen
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-98
+History:
+===Preface===; Unlike Earth-616, Earth-98 does not operate on a Sliding Timescale and as such the passage of time and the details of events have progressed much slower. In this reality the Modern Age of Heroes (which is identified as the birth of the Fantastic Four occurred in the year 1961. Whereas the Earth-616 universe currently measures the Modern Age as being in existence for about fourteen years. When this reality was visited by the Thing of Earth-616, the modern age of his reality had existed for ten years, while the modern age of Earth-98 had existed for 37 years at that time. It should also be noted that while "year ten" on of the modern age of Earth-616 will always be moving forward in time, the year that Ben Grimm-616 visited this reality will always be the calendar year 1998. Events on this world appear to be more or less analogous to Earth-616, despite the differences, but the timeframe moves much slower.; ===Over the Years===; The Frightful Four is a group of long time enemies of the Fantastic Four. The group was formed in 1965 and presumably their early appearances match those of their Earth-616 counterparts only with time passing at a much slower rate.; ===1998===; By the year 1998 the Frightful Four included the Wizard, Blastaar, Quicksand, and the Hooded Haunt. In an attempt to gain access to the Fantastic Four's headquarters, the Wizard posed as a teenager named Ozzie and romanced Spike, daughter of the FF's Crystal. Due to Spike's rebellious nature she easily fell for "Ozzie" and was tricked into allowing him access. His attempts at infiltrating the Four Freedoms Plaza coincided with the appearance of the Thing of Earth-616 who exposed the Wizard's plot. The Wizard summoned the rest of the Frightful Four and a battle broke out between the villains and their foes the Fantastic Four. Ultimately the Fantastic Four's Zero Man used his powers to open a portal to the Negative Zone. Since Blastaar was seeking to return to his home dimension he allowed himself and his fellow teammates be sucked into the Negative Zone portal, ending the battle. The subsequent fate of the Frightful Four is unknown.

+History:
+The Frightful Four's history is presumably similar to the Fantastic Four's of Earth-616 up to the point when they took off in their spaceship. The spaceship design was flawed and had insufficient shielding, and Reed Richards's roommate Victor von Doom warned him this. However, Reed didn't care what Doom thought and went on with his plans. Reed and his teammates were affected by the cosmic rays. From this, Reed's mind become twisted by shame and paranoia which lead him to form the Frightful Four to take his revenge on the entire human race, and his teammates became his unwitting pawns. When Human Torch of Earth-20051 arrived by accident to their world, the Frightful Four came and battled Victor, now using the Doc Iron identity, which led the good Johnny being freed and joining the fight against the Frightful Four, resulting in their defeat.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Land of Shades; Formerly:; Olympus
+History:
+The Furies are the daughters of the primeval gods Ouranus and Gaea. Among the few gods active before and after Zeus conquered Olympus, they punished offenders who turned against blood kin. Their principal function was to avenge fathers, or more often mothers, against their undutiful children. Often when a son failed to avenge a parent killed unjustly, the Furies haunted him until he made retribution on his parents' death.; The Furies appeared in modern times following the Second World War, on one occasion erroneously harrying the wrong man for a murder committed by someone with a similar name. They were also seen for some reason posing as Sirens in order to tempt a man suffering from a near-death experience away from safety while he traveled through Hades.; In modern times, it was revealed that the Furies were extensively wrapped up in the lives of Pastor Kale and his descendants, who became avatars of the Spirit of Vengeance as the Ghost Rider. After a number of encounters with Danny Ketch, they were ultimately defeated when the Asgardian goddess Valkyrie exorcised them from their human hosts.; Most recently, the Furies were given the dubious assignment of providing security for a Greek cuisine restaurant that had become a haunt of the Olympian gods.

+Trivia: When God Emperor Doom ruled Battleworld, he copied Reed Richards' life, including the Future Foundation, though he simply called it the Foundation.; Jonathan Hickman, who created the Future Foundation, also wrote the Maker, whose Children of Tomorrow share some similarities with Mister Fantastic's Future Foundation. The parallel is directly shown in Future Foundation Vol 1 2.; The Maker's speech when founding the Children of Tomorrow from Ultimate Fallout Vol 1 4 mirrors Mister Fantastic's speech when founding the Future Foundation from Fantastic Four Vol 3 579.; The book FF Vol 1 was created to capitalize on the skyrocketing popularity of Jonathan Hickman's Fantastic Four run. It was originally going to be titled Future Foundation, but it was changed to FF (which is the abbreviation for Fantastic Four) to sell the idea that it was the main FF's successor series. The white suits were inspired by cleanroom suits and the plugsuits from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Although the series was intended to be a temporary replacement for the main FF book after Fantastic Four Vol 3 588 (FF #1–11 served as Fantastic Four #589–599), the sales were so good that Hickman was asked to continue the book alongside the main FF book, which returned with Fantastic Four Vol 3 600.; Lunella Lafayette applied to the Future Foundation on multiple occasions, and although they determined she tested in the Top 3% of the population, her applications were repeatedly rejected for unspecified reasons.
+History:
+Reed Richards has become discouraged by Earth's scientists' view of and applications of science which causes more problems. Richards decided to leave the Singularity Conference body, to put together a new group of free-thinking individuals to plan for a better future for all of humanity and Earth. Richards plans to mold the new young team so they will come up with solutions to the world's problems.; The roster of the team consist of the hero Alex Power, the android Dragon Man, four evolved Moloids Tong, Turg, Mik, and Korr and Bentley 23 who is a clone of The Wizard. Artie Maddicks and Leech later join as recruits.; Dr. Nathaniel Richards, the father of Reed Richards later joins the team with some newly discovered ancient atlanteans Vil and Wu. Surprisingly Spider-Man joins the team; this is the final request from Human Torch. The most shocking of all the recruits was Doctor Doom who was invited by Valeria and Nathaniel Richards. The Thing objects to his membership and attacks him, but Reed and Sue break up the fight.; Due the presence of alternate Reed Richards from the Interdimensional Council of Reeds, Mr. Fantastic made an alliance with many villains such as Mad Thinker, A.I.M., Wizard, Diablo and High Evolutionary to plan how to stop them. Then they lead the battle to High Evolutionary's Forever City where the "Reed-Alpha" escapes with Doctor Doom to Latveria, while the others two were captured by the Kree army and used to revive the Supreme Intelligence. After returning to Baxter Building, Richards reunited other heroes to fight the Universal Inhumans in Attilan, but at the time they where preparing to go at the rooftop, a Kree invasion started. Reed used Iron Man's armor and Sue's power to create a force field around Manhattan, at the same time the Cult of the Negative Zone opened the portal to the Negative Zone after Spider-Man failed to stop them, the portal revealed a living Johnny Storm with an enslaved Annihilus.; Meanwhile, the kids of the Future Foundation uses the Panic Room system to teleport the top of the Baxter Building near Latveria, there they help Nathaniel, Kristoff Vernard, Reed-Alpha and Dr. Doom to rebuild the Bridge, so Reed-Alpha would return home. There, the Mad Celestials tries to enter this Earth to destroy it. Doctor Doom and Reed-Alpha tried to stop them although Reed was killed using the Ultimate Nullifier and Doctor Doom by the Celestials.; When Johnny gathered the team, he did so by using fire to draw the iconic "4" symbol in the sky above the Baxter Building. Reed, Sue, Ben and Peter boarded one of the Annihilation Wave's ships controlled by Johnny, who used the rest of the ships to battle the Kree army until the Inhumans asked to finish them by their own hand. Meanwhile the other heroes on Earth where dealing with the scraps of the battle which could damage the planet. Reed and Sue summoned Galactus, who completely destroyed the Kree army. That moment, the Mad Celestials appeared to destroy this universe. Although the team tried to use the Hub (a weapon of mass destruction created by the Reeds), they couldn't defeat the Mad Celestials. Then, a future version of Franklin and Valeria appeared as part of Nathaniel Richards's plan. The Future Franklin used his power to heal Galactus and destroy the Mad Celestials, saving the day. Later, the Baxter Building was easily rebuilt, Mr. Fantastic showed a new secondary headquarters called Foundation and new costumes were given to the members of the Future Foundation, being the Fantastic Four reformed as part of it.; ===Ant-astic Four===; The Future Foundation would soon be left in the hands of Scott Lang the current Ant-Man after Reed discovered that the cosmic energy that gave him his powers was decaying, forcing him and the rest of the Fantastic Four to go into a different universe to fix the problem. Scott was left with She-Hulk, Medusa and Johnny Storm's current girlfriend Darla Deering to be the replacement Fantastic Four for only originally four minutes unless something went wrong, which did happen.; ===Time Runs Out===; Reed and the Future Foundation began working on vessels capable of surviving the imminent destruction of the Multiverse. When the final incursion took place between Earth-616 and Earth-1610, Mister Fantastic gathered in the life raft every person he could and deployed its measures. When the vessel approached the central point of the incursion, it suffered a hull breach that led to the death of Reed's family and the members of the Future Foundation.; ===Secret Wars===; Reed later gained the omnipotent power of the Beyonders that Doctor Doom formerly possessed and rebuilt Earth-616, bringing all of its inhabitants back with no memories of what had occurred. Mr. Fantastic also brought his family and the Future Foundation back from the dead, and together with their help, began to reconstruct the entire Multiverse with help from the Molecule Man.; ===The Return of the Fantastic Four===; Years following the Future Foundation's multiversal adventures, a mysterious being called the Griever at the End of All Things who repudiated the Future Foundation's mission of creating new universes confronted the team as soon as Franklin was depleted of his ability to create entirely new realities. She killed the Molecule Man and caused the collapse of the hundreds of universes charted by the Future Foundation, forcing the team to make a final stand. The Fantastic Four were reunited when Mister Fantastic tricked the Griever into giving them the chance to summon the remaining members of the Fantastic Four for backup. In addition to teleporting Ben and Johnny, Reed also brought every superhero who had been part of the team at one point in order to defeat the new foe.; With his allies, Reed tricked the Griever and forced her to retreat or risk being stranded in the reality they were in. While Reed, Susan, Valeria, and Franklin chose to return to Earth-616, the rest of the Future Foundation chose to continue exploring the Multiverse in hopes of restoring the Molecule Man.; Mister Fantastic appointed Alex Power as leader. After the Future Foundation got trapped inside an asteroid with vicious creatures, Alex Power and Dragon Man used an interdimensional teleporter to get help. They ended up teleporting into the apartment of Alex's sister Julie. Julie barely got a say before Alex and Dragon Man teleported her back to the Future Foundation's location. Julie quickly used her ability to fly to get everyone safely back to their ship. Julie decided to stay with the Future Foundation as her life had been falling apart and wanted to help the kids as a teacher. After traveling the multiverse and fighting The Maker, they found a way home using The Forever Gate and went their separate ways.

Partner with Mephisto, Doom created his own Frightful Four consisting of Sabretooth, Sandman, Venom, and Abomination. The four villains were further augmented with demonic energy from Mephisto. The Frightful Four were then pitted against the new Fantastic Four but were eventually betrayed and actually disintegrated, simply being nothing more than disposal pawns in Mephisto's scheme to destroy the Fantastic Four.

Sue visited Reed in order to comply with Spider-Ham's suggestion, but he convinced her to find another way.; They stole genetic material from a S.H.I.E.L.D. lab, and Reed fecunded Sue with the child of Ben Grimm. Months later, the rips appeared more often, and Sue entered into labor. At that time, a rip brought evil cyclops versions of heroes from another universe, who began to rampage through New York, but when the baby was finally delivered, the girl created an energy emmanation which closed the portal and pulled back those who came from it, fixing the decaying universe.

+First appearance: Annihilation - Scourge: Fantastic Four Vol 1 1
+Created by: Christos N. Gage; Diego Olortegui
+Reality: Earth-10011
+Notes: The name "Ftaghn Four" is a reference to H.P. Lovecraft's sentence "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn", coined in the short story "The Call of Cthulhu" (Weird Tales; June, 1928). The word itself is often used in the Cancerverse, whether as a slur or as part of invocations.
+History:
+The past history of the Ftaghn Four mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterpart until their universe no longer experienced death.; Seemingly under Reed Richards guidance, the Fantastic Four welcomed the Many-Angled Ones, who corrupted them into the Ftaghn Four. They told the Ftaghn Four of the "meaning of the word" "family", and Reed used his elastic body to unite the family by attaching them to each others, and live forever. Franklin was given by his family the "greatest gift a family can give a child", and made him an host for their Many-Angled Ones masters. He was able to house several of the elder gods, and was thus considered the most blessed of all.; The Cancerverse eventually began invading the Negative Zone, and the Ftaghn Four were seemingly dispatched along with Crystal. At incursion day +24, while attacking refugees, Crystal was opposed and dismissed by the Fantastic Four of the Prime Marvel Universe. The Ftaghn Four stepped in, intending to claim control of the Fantastic Four portal to the Prime Universe and use it to infiltrate it. The Ftaghn Four attempted to corrupt the Fantastic Four, also intending to use their Franklin. Using a Memorium Device, the Human Torch from the Prime Universe showed them his memories, and the truth. Reed and Johnny rejected the claim of those memories being greater than their current life, but were opposed by the enraged Invisible Woman and Thing. Susan used her force field to cut off Reed's tendrils from the other Ftaghn Four and return their freedom, causing the Human Torch to go nova and destroy his family and himself, wishing to remain a family forever.; It is unknown whether they were regenerating in the Cancerverse of if the Negative Zone allowed them to be killed.

+History:
+===Origins===; The Fu Xi Clan were the human descendants of the Xian Fu Xi. In ancient times, the Fu Xi were part of an confederation of Chinese tribes along with the Nü-wa Clan and Shen Nong Clan known as the Huaxa led by the Yellow Emperor against Chiyou and his demon army. During the Battle of Zhuolu, the Yellow Emperor called upon the Three Sovereigns to assist him and their descendants. In response, the Three Sovereigns gifted them their sacred weapons: with Fu Xi sending his Sword of Fu Xi. The chief of Tribe Fu Xi used the Sword along with the other chiefs to defeat Chiyou and his army. Despite his defeat, Chiyou was unable to be completely destroyed, resulting in the his remains being divided and sealed away to prevent his resurrection. Three tombs were built to bury a part of Chiyou's remains, each containing a fragment of his soul and guarded by the sacred weapons, with the Sword guarding his skull. The Clans vowed to guard the tombs, as reuniting Chiyou's three parts will result in his resurrection. When Chiyou's skull proved to be difficult to be sealed, the Fu Xi Chief used the wood from the trees stained from the blood of the Fu Xi clan during their battles with Chiyou to construct chains that successfully bound Chiyou in his tomb in Qianfengu. Over several millenia, each generation of the Fu Xi Clan became less vigilant, with their numbers rapidly declining and Chiyou becoming long forgotten.; ===Modern Times===; By the present day, the only known descendants of Fu Xi were Professor Lin and his two sons, who were all unaware of their lineage. When the Professor was coincidentally in Qianfengu for an archeological dig, graverobbers disturbed the area, breaking the seal containing Chiyou's skull and unearthing the Sword and Orb. The professor went to Shanghai to give Lie the Sword and returned to Qianfengu with Feng to contain Chiyou's Orb. Afterwards the two disappeared.; When Lie was attacked by Chiyou's demons in Shanghai, the Sword activated itself to protect him. Lie was rescued bu Ji Shuangshuang of the Nü-wa Clan, who revealed his heritage to him. Shuangshuang's grandmother ordered her to bring Lie and the Sword to the Nü-wa Clan's mansion in Gansu and remarked that the Fu Xi and Nü-wa were working together again.

During the war, Johnny Storm was killed by Ultron, making the group functionally defunct.

+History:
+When most of the surviving Morlocks were seemingly killed by Mikhail Rasputin, they were actually brought to another dimension. There, Mikhail had established a citadel for himself on the top of a massive hill. The Social Darwinist philosophy of "survival of the fittest" was the only thing which governed the society. If someone could reach the summit of the hill they were considered "fit" and worthy of being part of Gene Nation.; The former Morlock leader Callisto cared for Marrow during this period and displayed a maternal attitude towards the young mutant. When her powers fully manifested she was forced to "up the hill", becoming more savage and killing her opponents to survive. When she managed to reach the top, Mikhail considered her fit to join his elite fighting team Gene Nation, which eventually became a terrorist group whose mission was to punish humans for their hatred towards mutants.; In that harsh dimension, time passed quickly. Marrow became a leader and several other members of Gene Nation returned to Earth. They discovered only a few years had passed during their absence. Marrow and the other members of Gene Nation began a homicidal terrorist campaign against surface-dwelling humans. After inconclusive battles with the X-Men and Generation X, Gene Nation was defeated by the X-Men. Marrow wired a time bomb to her own heart to force the X-Man Storm, who had herself led the Morlocks in the past, to either yield or kill her; Storm tore out Marrow's heart. However, due to Marrow's possession of two hearts to compensate for her random bone growth and superhuman regenerative abilities, she survived.; Marrow later reunited a Gene Nation to confront the Weapon X in a series of attacks against their facilities.

+Base of operations: S.T.O.R.M. Central, North Wales, United Kingdom
+Weapons: Various high-powered weapons
+History:
+The Gene Dogs is an elite team of operatives from S.T.O.R.M., a pan-European defense and counter-terrorist organization. The original Gene Dogs, consisting of Cat, Howitzer, Kestrel, Pacer, Tyr, and Panther, were initially members of Team Omega, an esteemed counter-terrorist squad under the command of Lars Dinkelbach. During a mission in the Congo, the team fell into an ambush by an unidentified creature, resulting in severe injuries. While Dinkelbach managed to escape unscathed, the creature carried an artificial virus that hindered the healing of the team's wounds. To save their lives, Dr. Samuel Merrick utilized his Gene Matching Device to mutate them. Each member underwent gene-splicing with different animals, granting them unique abilities. Additionally, they received Gene-Chips, bio-wetware computer chips implanted in their cerebral cortex to further enhance their capabilities. However, the transformation destabilized their genetic structures, necessitating regular treatments from Merrick for survival. The Gene Dogs now serve as field operatives for the covert government organization, S.T.O.R.M.; One year following their mutation, the Gene Dogs were assigned the task of recovering the Gene Scanner, a coveted technology targeted by Otomo, who dispatched his agents, the Q7 Strike Force, to retrieve it. The Gene Dogs successfully fended off the Strike Force, securing the Scanner. Tragically, Panther fell victim to Banzai's assault during the confrontation. S.T.O.R.M., in response, temporarily replaced Panther with Cat. Unbeknownst to Otomo, Mys-Tech had devised the Gene Scanner as a deceptive weapon, disguising it as a device with potent mutagenic capabilities. Mys-Tech manipulated Otomo into stealing the Scanner. They then employed Hurricane to retrieve it, subsequently leaking information to the Strike Force, who ambushed and captured both Hurricane and the Scanner. Eventually, the Gene Dogs formed an alliance with the Strike Force to eliminate the Scanner upon discovering its true nature as a bomb. During their mission, they learned that Panther had covertly worked as a Mys-Tech agent. Pursuing a false lead provided by Panther, they engaged in a confrontation with the group Genetix. Otomo and the Strike Force managed to escape, while Hurricane was once again imprisoned.; Later, the Gene Dogs found themselves engaged in another conflict with the group Genetix, who accidentally stumbled into S.T.O.R.M. Central while pursuing Tektos. The encounter resulted in an inconclusive battle. Vesper, a member of Genetix, accessed S.T.O.R.M.'s computer system and established communication with Eagle and Merrick, eventually leading to a conversation with Cat. Through dialogue, the two groups realized they were allies but maintained a degree of animosity towards each other.

+After the success of the first Gamma Corps, Norman Osborn ordered General John Ryker to create a new Gamma Corps, composed of female "volunteers". These so-called volunteers were all mentally unstable ex-soldiers waiting on death row. The trio were taken to the Origins Corporation to be used in their gene therapy program. General Ryker then sent the team to capture Lyra, the alternate universe She-Hulk, so they could harvest her DNA.; They the trio attacked and killed Lyra's fellow A.R.M.O.R. agents and took her personal computer, Boudicca, which drove her to hunt them down, first killing Morass by drying out her Glob-like body.; The remaining pair headed for a small nearby town, attempting to hold the people hostage in order to make Lyra surrender. In the battle Lyra badly hurt Aberration, causing her body to mutate into a tumorous mess, and then killed her with a metal pipe through the head. Axon then threatened to electrocute the whole town unless Lyra surrendered.; Axon absorbed most of Lyra's bio-electric energy, absorbing her powers. Lyra then made Axon angry, causing the stolen powers to weaken. Axon was then killed remotely by General Ryker's troops.; ===Gamma Corps: Black===; Aberration - (Private Rana Philips), was an Abomination/human hybrid experiment, similar to the original Gamma Corps member Mess. Philips was a more slender female version of the original Abomination. Private Philips was incarcerated after her commanding officer used her as a scapegoat for his torture of prisoners of war, inciting her to kill him. Private Philips was sentenced to death, leaving her nothing to lose by being altered by Ryker's experiment.; Morass - (Name Unrevealed), was a Glob/human hybrid experiment. The unnamed woman was given the abilities of the original Glob, she appeared look like more slender female version of the original Glob. Morass was arrested for unknown reasons, and sentenced to death, leaving her nothing to lose by being altered by the Origins Corporation gene therapy program.; Axon - (Staff Sergeant Erin Cicero), is an Zzzax/human hybrid experiment. Staff Sergeant Cicero appeared as more slender female version of the original human hybrid of Zzzax. After being the sole-survivor of her squad from an insurgent ambush in Symkaria, she suffered PTSD, leaving her paranoid. Cicero believed everyone around her was an enemy, leading her to kill her own family and three police officers. Cicero was sentenced to death, leaving her nothing to lose being altered by Ryker's experiment.

+History:
+Gemini's members were still newborn children when they were killed with several other people in the outburst - at the Segrate International Hospital - of the Meta-Impulse. It was a force of unknown origin unleashed by the experiments of Edwig Caine, a scientist and ex MI5 agent obsessed with taming the forces which create superheroes.; The Meta-Impulse revealed itself to be the key to our dimension for a powerful demonic entity who sealed a bargain with Caine, so five infants were resurrected by the demon Nosferath and imbued with a fraction of his powers.; After a period under medical examinations and observation, the children were turned back to their family or adopted. Meanwhile thanks to a government coverup, the Italian terrorist organization "Alba Nera" (Black Dawn) was framed as guilty for the explosion.; When years later the legacy of Nosferath has begun to resurface in the form of super powers, the kids were recruited by Caine in his superhuman task force, Gemini. In the base of Vera Croce, in an undisclosed location in northern Italy, their powers were honed and they were trained in combat and in the use of weapons.; Hoping to receive EuroMind's (European branch of the S.H.I.E.L.D.) endorsement, Caine arranges a team evaluation sponsored by Nick Fury. Eventually, S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Lancelot comes out with a negative opinion, components of the team are deemed too ruthless and bloodthirsty.; Later, the team faced Nosferath in battle and they were nearly killed, only the intervention of the cosmic entity known as the Voyager saved them, banishing the demon in his extradimensional prison and thus freeing the five from his curse but leaving their powers intact. Edwig Caine apparently died on this mission.; After this battle, the team went into hiding and none of them has been seen anymore.

+History:
+The Gargoyles where mental patients in an insane asylum located in Vichy, France during the 1940s. As World War II progressed into the year 1944, the people of Vichy became resistant to the Nazis that occupied France at the time. In response, the newly appointed Nazi governor of Vichy took the insane asylum patients and dressed them in luminescent gargoyle costumes. Then he had them unleashed at night to attack and kill French citizens. As part of this ruse, all Germans ignored the creatures and then slathered the gargoyle statues around the city with blood making the more superstitious members of town believe that the stone gargoyles were coming to life to kill them. When a group of prominent citizens came to the governor for assistance, he suggested that since the Gargoyles did not attack Germans, then perhaps they would begin acting more German.; Suspecting some kind of trick, the leader of a local French Resistance movement then called in the assistance of Captain America and Bucky. Investigating the town, they spotted one of the Gargoyles being led by a Nazi agent. Fighting them off, they ended up at the local Notre Dame cathedral where they stumbled upon the governor's operation. Initially tied to the bell to die, the two heroes broke free and, fighting for their freedom, caused the release of the Gargoyles who promptly attacked their masters. In the melee, the Nazi soldiers and Gargoyles slaughtered each other putting an end to their threat.

+History:
+===Overview===; Not much is known about the formation of the Galaxy organization. It is a united federation of planets that unifies the planets primarily in the Sol system of Earth-5106, a universe where space travel and exploration blossomed in the 1950s and sentient life exists on most planets in the Sol system. It is said that Galaxy was the successor to the United Nations. By the year 2000 it Galaxy's headquarters is located on Earth in Washington D.C. and it is run by Chief Bennett "Blast" Revere a former test pilot. Galaxy also governs the Space Squadron a peacekeeping force charged with defending the solar system and known space from any threat that might jeopardize any of the planets within the federation.; Delegates to Galaxy include Mercurian ruler Mer-King and Unal of the Moonmen who live on Earth's Moon. Other delegates whose identities are unknown represent the Martians of Mars, the Fish-Men of Neptune, the Insect-Men who also live on Earth's moon, the Saturnians, the Plutonians of Pluto as well as the Gator-Men of the planet Fulvius.; ===2000 AD===; The year 2000 AD is the only time in history where any records of Galaxy's activities are recorded. A delegation of Galaxy rockets were threatened with destruction by the mad scientist Tombalo who created a deadly "Electro-Arc" device that created powerful disintegrating force fields in space. The crisis was averted thanks to the newly appointed Space Squadron field-commander Jet Dixon. When the Martian warrior tribe VBDN came to Earth to learn how to live in peace their leader Mxxptrm briefly absconded with the delegates of Galaxy and Chief Revere's daughter Dawn until they could be convinced to shed their barbarian natures. When an unknown force was causing the Mercurians to revert to their evil natures, Mercurian leader Mer-King came to Galaxy for assistance. While Chief Revere sent the Space Squadron to solve the problem, Bennett's son Edgar attempted to convince the other members of Galaxy to go to war against Mercury. Bennett and his daughter Dawn kept the peace until the Space Squadron returned from their mission.; Moonman ruler Unal later hosted the 2000 AD Olympics on the moon, inviting representatives of the united planets to participate. His nephew Drago and niece Ura illegally used their hypnotic powers to try and influence Jet Dixon to lose the rocket race in the hopes it would discredit Earth's dominance on the Galaxy council and prompt war, however this effort was thwarted by Space Squadron science office LLA 38. Shortly thereafter, the intergalactic criminal known as Boz used his tentacles to take the entire Galaxy council hostage until he was killed battling the Space Squadron.

The two fugitives ultimately escaped with the help of the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy, and the Gatherers tried to stop them to no avail.; When the Gatherers were checking on the damages caused by Rocket and Howard's escape, two specimens created from the genetic material of Rocket and Howard for mating purposes, Shocket and Linda, were put under the care of Gatherer D-3X. D-3X grew fond of the two girls and escaped with them. They ultimately travelled twenty-five years into the past to escape the Gatherers on their pursuit.; Once the twenty-five years passed, Shocket and Linda were back under the Collector's radar, and the Collector sent a Gatherer to retrieve them along with Howard. Gatherer 7-X9 approached the ship Howard, Linda and Shocket were on, as they were trying to reach Collecton to save all of the specimens imprisoned. However, 7-X9's ship was destroyed by the Stranger, who wanted Howard for himself.

+Base of operations: Thomasville, Texas; Formerly:; New Mexico; Alpha Flight Low-Orbit Space Station

+Transportation: Translocator; formerly Alpha Flight Squadron Jet
+History:
+After the Avengers apprehended the Hulk on behalf of General Reginald Fortean of the U.S. Hulk Operations and delivered him to the authorities, the green monster disappeared without a trace, having been confined to the covert Shadow Base Site A. Concerned by the vanishing of Banner, Avengers member and Alpha Flight commander Captain Marvel decided to form a task force headed by the de-powered Walter Langkowski to locate him; this team became known as Gamma Flight, and it was initially comprised of Langkowski and Puck.; Together with reporter Jackie McGee, Gamma Flight approached the Hulk when his energy signature was detected at Los Diablos Missile Base where he was fighting the Absorbing Man, who had become possessed by the spirit of Brian Banner who was, in turn, being controlled by the One Below All. Using the Absorbing Man's powers, Brian made him soak up all the gamma radiation on the site in order to open a Green Door, which sent everyone on the scene to the Below-Place, the One Below All's dwelling-place. In the Below-Place, Puck convinced the Absorbing Man to use his powers to empower the Hulk with gamma radiation, resulting in him defeating the One Below All and returning everyone back to Earth. In the afthermath, Puck invited the Absorbing Man to join the team. He accepted, and requested to bring in his wife Titania as well.; Afterward, the Hulk teamed up with Doc Samson to investigate the now-abandoned Shadow Base Site A. He left Samson behind after the base collapsed, and he was picked up by Gamma Flight when they appeared to investigate. Together with Samson, Gamma Flight continued following the Hulk, arriving at the scene of a battle that he had had with a Shadow Base-controlled Rick Jones. The team retrieved the Gamma-Activated Tissue left behind from the battle which had been used by Shadow Base to mutate Jones. The team took the tissue to the Alpha Flight Low-Orbit Space Station, but they were raided by General Fortean shortly afterward. Using a Redeemer Armor, he teleported into the station and attacked Gamma Flight, leaving Langkowski as the only casualty. Fortean then retrieved the tissue and teleported away.; In retaliation for Fortean's attack, Gamma Flight tracked Fortean's translocator signal and teleported to its source, Shadow Base Site B. However, due to their use of psychics, Shadow Base was expecting their attack and surrounded them on the spot. The tables were turned when the Hulk and his allies appeared to retaliate against Fortean as well. Gamma Flight teamed up with the Green Goliath to take down Fortean, resulting in the Hulk seizing command of Shadow Base. In the aftermath, Samson defected from Alpha Flight and joined the Hulk to keep an eye on him.; As part of his objective to bring down the global status quo, the Hulk waged war against Roxxon. In retaliation, Roxxon orchestrated an attack of four giant monsters on Phoenix, Arizona. Gamma Flight flew to the city to help contain the monsters. Titania single-handedly killed the monster codenamed Bradbury, while the Absorbing Man intercepted a fight between the Hulk and Xemnu the Living Titan, who had seemngly arrived to contain the monsters but was actually secretly working with Roxxon to give the Hulk bad publicity.; Following Roxxon and Xemnu's defeat, the Hulk was hailed as a national hero. He was invited to Georgeville, where the Leader manipulated Rick Jones to overcharge the Hulk with gamma radiation, making him detonate and destroy the town. Gamma Flight appeared to restrain the Hulk and, following an arduous fight against Titania and the Absorbing Man, Puck subdued the Hulk using a laser gun to shoot him in the head. By this time, Alpha Flight had fallen under the command of Henry Gyrich, who had the Hulk contained aboard the Alpha Flight Low-Orbit Space Station. Shortly afterward, Gamma Flight was joined by Doc Samson, who had resurrected in Sasquatch's body. When Banner managed to break out, Gamma Flight were unable to stop him. Gyrich threatened to turn against Gamma Flight for this failure, and the team walked out on him.; Samson and Puck then travelled to Shadow Base G to retrieve Samson's original body in the hopes of returning Langkowski to his. They encountered a merged Rick Jones and Del Frye, who were escaping from the abandoned facility. They were joined by the Hulk's ally, Dr. Charlene McGowan, and McGee, who had decided to investigate the gamma energy spike that was caused by Rick and Del. After learning that the Hulk was confronting the U-Foes in Manhattan, the former Gamma Flight members, as well as Rick and Del, agreed to go help him since they had learned from Samson that the Leader was pulling the strings. The team picked up the Absorbing Man and Titania, and teleported to Manhattan, where the Hulk and the Red Harpy were fighting the Avengers. When the heroes refused to let Gamma Flight part with the Hulk, a fight broke out. In the end, the She-Hulk turned against her fellow Avengers and made an opening for Gamma Flight to translocate away with herself, the Hulk and the Red Harpy. Gamma Flight parted ways with the Hulk, the Red Harpy, the She-Hulk and McGee soon afterward.; The team then went on the run due to their association with the Hulk and settled down in a safe house in New Mexico. They were spurred into action by the rampage of a gamma mutate codenamed Stockpile in Texas, where they also encountered her handler Skaar, the Hulk's son. Gamma Flight's escape went awry when their translocator technology malfunctioned and seemingly disintegrated the members of the team on the scene, as well as Stockpile. The team was transported to the small town of Thomasville, whose populance was being experimented on by Stockpile's former benefactors, Project Green Spring, through an alleged supplement called Fortify. However, the team had also been shunted into a parallel plane of reality, an Astral Plane-like dimension that was based on gamma, allowing them to covertly witness Green Spring's operations and discover that their leader was, in fact, the resurrected Abomination who was possessing the gamma-mutated body of Stockpile's father, General Fortean. Once McGowan managed to return the team to the normal version of reality, Gamma Flight set out to bring down Green Spring and Stockpile formally joined them. The team returned to Thomasville and raided Green Spring's base to hijack their Cathexis Ray and revert the townspeople back to normal with it. The team was successful and, in the process, they managed to both turn Skaar over to their side and split Rick from Del. After taking down the Abomination's right-hand woman, Dr. Aliana Alba, the Abomination was driven off. Gamma Flight decided to stay at Thomasville to further help the townspeople with the side effects of their gamma exposure.

+Notes: During the Age of Apocalypse crossover event, Generation X was renamed Generation Next.
+History:
+Generation X was a team of mutant teens formed shortly after the Phalanx attempted to absorb all mutants, starting with the next generation of mutants. The team was led by both Banshee and Emma Frost, and was comprised mainly of Jubilee, Husk, Synch, M, Chamber, Skin, and the mysterious Penance. The team's primary purpose was to receive an education and learn to be the next generation of X-Men, rather than fighting supervillains. The school was located at the Massachusetts branch of Xavier's School.; Both Banshee and Emma Frost educated the teenagers in school subjects as well as combat and field skills. Jubilee and the other mutant teens honed their unique abilities and occasionally battled minions such as the Juggernaut, Omega Red, and their arch-rival Emplate.; Shortly after the formation of the mutant teen team, Penance was dropped onto the front lawn of the Massachusetts Academy by Gateway. Penance had previously been a prisoner of Emplate, a parasitic mutant who fed upon other mutants that the group had encountered previously. Penance couldn't speak and had immunity to telepathy, leading to a big mystery regarding her origins. Chamber was able to convince her that he knew how she felt and calmed the girl down into staying with the team.; After countless adventures, a bold revenge plan by Emma's sister Adrienne ended in Synch's death and Emma murdering her sister, which, once discovered, shook the team's trust in their Headmistress and led to the ultimate closure of the Massachusetts Academy.

+History:
+The Gladiators were created by Hugo Longride to stage fights in gladiatorial games in an arena known as the Underground Mutant Theatre located in Hollywood, California.; Hugo Longride also hired a talent scout named Alexander Flynn to find mutant to join the Gladiators. Flynn brought in several powerful mutants to the arena including Dazzler and the Beast. Eventually, Hugo and Flynn came into conflict over the management of the troupe and many of the Gladiators, who were being controlled by Flynn's own mutant powers, killed Hugo in the arena in front of hundreds of spectators.; Now fully in control of the Gladiators, Flynn wanted to use them as his personal army to invade and conquer the small European nation of Latveria, which was ruled over by his supposed father, Doctor Doom. However, Flynn was defeated before he could set his plan into motion and lost control of the troupe to one of the Gladiators, Max Rocker.; A short time later the powerful telepath known as the Shadow King had taken control over another mutant named Karma and together they took over the running of the Gladiators and the Underground Mutant Theatre. Also, the Shadow King was masquerading as Alexander Flynn during this time period.; Eventually, the Shadow King was defeated by a combined force of the New Mutants, Shadowcat, Rachel Summers, and Dazzler.; The subsequent fate of the troupe has yet to be recorded.

Magneto charged Generation Next with recovering her so that her latent time travel abilities could repair their damaged reality.; The team split up into groups to infiltrate the Portland Core: Husk and Vincente smuggled themselves in with Paige pretending to be a pleasure slave and tricking security chief Quietus into drinking Vincente, killing him. Paige and Vincente used their powers to pose as Quietus, Chamber and Skin posed as workers, and Mondo used his powers to sneak into the facility secretly. While they were infiltrating the Core, Colossus and Shadowcat stood by as backup while receiving updates from Know-It-All.; The group ran afoul of Sugar Man, who ordered "Quietus" to assassinate Chamber and Skin, while Mondo managed to find Illyana and tried to secret her away. With the situation growing hairy, Colossus and Shadowcat entered the facility to help their charges. Generation Next's position was exposed, and Sugar Man slayed Mondo. Meanwhile, the other members of Generation Next were swarmed by the Sugar Man's forces. Colossus recovered his sister and sent her off with Shadowcat. Seeing that Paige was the only member left, and she was overwhelmed by Sugar Man's forces, he abandoned her and her team.; Colossus and Shadowcat were ultimately slain as well: Shadowcat in an attempt to stop her rampaging husband, while Colossus was killed by Gambit. Paige survived her ordeals to be rescued by her siblings Amazon, Cannonball, and Icarus and plotted revenge against the X-Men. She and her siblings were slain by Magneto and the X-Men for attempting to kill his wife Rogue and his son Charles.

+History:
+The Ghosts of Cyclops are a group of misguided young Mutant extremists that wrecked havoc throughout Chicago under the claims of being activists, following the legacy of the deceased Mutant leader Cyclops.; Cyclops' time-displaced younger counterpart started tracking the Ghosts of Cyclops, and discovered a pattern to their attacks, so he was able to be present during their following appearance. The Ghost appeared and started scaring people, and the young Cyclops confronted them until the police arrived and they fled.; The leader of the Ghosts of Cyclops, Thirst, had dropped his wallet during the fight and the young Cyclops was able to track him down to Algar University. When he entered the facility, two of the members of the Ghost recognized him and alerted their boss. They put on their masks, confronted him in the library and started beating him up. Angered by the Ghosts' distortion of Cyclops' image, the young Scott Summers blasted them away with an optic blast. However, using his power caused him to faint. Before the Ghosts could leave, the rest of the time-displaced X-Men appeared on the scene.; With the presence of the X-Men, the Ghost of Cyclops fled, accidentally leaving Thirst behind, who had been beaten up by the young Cyclops. The police arrived to the scene, and apprehended Cyclops and Thirst. The rest of the Ghost hid in a garage to plan their next course of action, and when they were leaving to rescue Thirst, Wolverine and Angel confronted them. The fight was cut short because, even though Laura had it under control, she was set on fire and Angel decided to leave with her and extinguish the flames just in case.; Once the Ghosts broke into the police station, they subdued the officers on the scene and prepared to leave, only to find themselves surrounded by dozens of cops. When they were getting ready to storm through the police, the X-Men entered into the building and fought them. After getting through a layer of ice created by Iceman to contain the fight, the police surrounded the mutant younglings. The X-Men quickly raised their hands in the air to prevent anything, but Thirst encouraged his teammates to attack. When an officer signaled to attack the Ghosts, the young Cyclops shot an energy blast between them, and gave a speech that prompted the police to not take lethal measures.

+===Early years===; The Ghamud were an ancient race. They erected cities of distinguishable design, in ruins by the Age of Conan.; ===Age of Conan===; After fleeing Koth, and Emperor Strabonus' wrath, Conan crossed the Eastern Desert heading for Turan or Hyrkania, knowing he would eventually encounter the Ghamud.; Resting at Ghamud ruins during a sandstorm, he was soon caught up by Ghamud tribesmen. He slew all but one, who found refuge in an abandoned temple beneath the ruins, uncovered by the storm and the twin of another lost structure he had explored once in the Eiglophian Mountains during his youth. He pursued, intending to slay the survivor, and perhaps take revenge on the strange creatures he had encountered in that other temple and loot a treasure comparable in size. The Ghamud survivor was gravely wounded by the Predator, strange creatures guarding the temple, was eventually caught up by Conan. A mere boy, he repeatedly demanded Conan to finish him and bring him an honorable death, which Conan refused and left looking for the treasure room. As Conan was run out of it, the wounded Ghamud tried to slay him. Conan stated to him that he had violated the warrior's way by trying twice to kill him through dishonorable means, before leaving him to rot there. The Ghamud was devoured only a moment later by one of the creatures.; Conan later infiltrated another Ghamud-guarded city, a Ghamud outpost known as The Gate, for water, slaying many Ghamud. Finding a wondrous garden, he was trapped within by a priest who thanked him for the honorable deaths of his brethren, and asked him to slay their death god Arisnaub, who lived in a form not his own and that Conan would be reluctant to kill.; The Ghamud of the Gate were later slaughtered by the Turanians under Achlemedes' orders, in order to replace them and set a trap for Conan and his Kozaki allies. Once Conan captured and shackled in the same tower the Ghamud's corpses were hidden, where he was left to be feasted upon by the carrion, the Turanians departed, fearing the Ghamud would show up in force at any time. Without Ghamud eunuchs to clear the sand after every major sandstorm, the structure of the temple broke under the weight, brutally freeing Conan as the roof collapsed, then the floor beneath him.; ==Facts==; ===People===; The Ghamud were said to be an ancient people, and were described as "small, loud and emotional".; ===Architecture===; The Ghamud erected cities of distinguishable design, in ruins by the Age of Conan.; ===Languages===; The Ghamud possessed their own language. They also swore oaths in another tongue.; They also used the Kushite language when speaking to each other, and spoke the language of the Western Kingdoms.; ===Customs and Religion===; The Ghamud were fanatical worshipers of death. Their high calling was to kill, and being killed themselves was a great honor. Thus, the Ghamud found glory in victory and defeat alike.; The Ghamud underwent many tests and rites of passage, and were considered adults while still boys, conditioning them by perverse means to follow their people's customs.; They also mentioned Arallu, though it might be the result of translation.; The Ghamud counted eunuchs in their ranks, seemingly in charge of menial tasks.; ====Gods====; The Ghamud worshiped their death god Arisnaub and invoked the name Mjhada.; The temple beneath Ghamud ruins, twin of a temple in the Eiglophian Mountains, was seemingly not of Ghamud origin, as they described its god as a "nameless god". They knew the strange creatures guarding those as "The Predator".; They disdained the gods of the "weak-willed West", including those of the Northlands.; ====Foreigners====; For foreigners, "infidels", to enter their territory was considered a transgression of their holy lands, an offense punishable by death.; Despite all of their disdain, they had some respect for foreigners following the warrior's way.; ===Clothing and markings===; Like other desert folks, the Ghamud wore turbans and ample clothes.; Beneath those, Ghamud were seemingly all bald, with tattoos extending from the forehead and temples to the back of the skull, as well as a dot on the chin, and earrings.

+The Glitch Brothers were a pair of criminal experts in surveillance technology dressed in matching shirts.; When Raul Bushman became President of Burunda, he hired the Glitch Brothers to help him in a revenge plot against Bushman's personal enemy, the Moon Knight; Bushman claimed that this information was "vital to my nation's security", thus the Glitch Brothers operated from a room within the Embassy of Burunda in New York City. The Glitch Brothers spied on the Moon Knight (including his civilian identity as Marc Spector, his allies, base of operations and vehicles), and provided Bushman with this information, which he used to intercept Spector's Porsche and kidnap Spector's girlfriend Marlene Alraune.; The Moon Knight answered by approaching the Embassy, but not without being detected by the Glitch Brothers. Bushman ordered the Glitch Brothers to keep him away, and send a messenger with instructions for him. The Glitch Brothers complied, but the Moon Knight managed to sneak into the Embassy, overcoming Bushman's security. Lyle noticed that and at first reprimanded the guard that had been outwitted. When Lyle noticed that the Moon Knight was literally on the other side of the door, he decided to leave the Embassy with Hector.

Together, they prevent stealing from Blightspoke while selling Blightspoke's rare materials and treasures to the Crooked Market for their own profit.; During a meeting of regents in the Starlight Citadel, Sheriff Whitechapel petitioned for entry into Mercator and presented a thinly veiled threat that she and her posse would eventually enter with or without permission.; During an escort mission into Blightspoke, Captain Britain and Excalibur were nearly attacked by Sheriff Whitechapel and her posse. Beast was able to explain that they were created models of soil samples in Blightspoke, but not taking any materials from that realm, so Sheriff Whitechapel led them be.; During Merlyn's coup of Otherworld, Sheriff Whitechapel and her posse were imprisoned because they were mutants (or "witchbreed") with the exception of Sheriff Whitechapel herself who was assumed to be a mutant and refused to leave her men behind. Initially, Captain Britain assumed that losing communication with the Sheriff meant betrayal, she later suspected a revolt. Using the Vescora as his enforcers, Merlyn seized control of Blightspoke and imprisoned Whitechapel and her posse, allowing him to refine and export Blightswill. Captain Britain and her Knights of X were able to free the Sheriff and her posse, but at the Sheriff's demand, they left them to reclaim Blightspoke alone.

+Equipment: Red Ronin
+Weapons: The Godzilla Squad had all of the advanced weaponry of S.H.I.E.L.D. at their disposal.
+Transportation: Behemoth IV Helicarrier
+History:
+When Godzilla surfaced off the coast of Alaska and began causing massive amounts of damage, S.H.I.E.L.D. was called in to stop it. Nick Fury called in Dr. Yuriko Takiguchi who had spent years studying Godzilla in his home country of Japan. Along with Takiguchi came his assistant Tamara Hashioka and his grandson Robert Takiguchi. Fury placed one of his most trusted agents, Dum Dum Dugan, in command of the Godzilla Squad as well as Gabe Jones and Jimmy Woo.; The Godzilla Squad spent many months following Godzilla throughout his exploits across the United States, trying to figure out ways to safely capture the monster and prevent it from destroying several large American cities. These cities included Seattle, Salt Lake City and San Francisco, where the Godzilla Squad was hindered in its mission by the well-meaning interference of the super hero team the Champions. Soon after this debacle, the Squad followed Godzilla to the Aleutian Islands where they, along with Godzilla, stopped the evil schemes of Dr. Demonicus, prompting several members of the team, including the hard-headed Dugan, to question the true intentions of the beast.; Tony Stark was commissioned by S.H.I.E.L.D. to build a machine to help stop Godzilla based upon the plans of Dr. Takiguchi which would come to be known as Red Ronin. Prior to the weapon's deployment, however, Takiguchi's grandson Rob stole the giant robot, fearing that S.H.I.E.L.D. wished to use it to harm Godzilla. Rob instead used Red Ronin to help Godzilla on several missions, until it was decapitated in a battle with the Mega-Monster known as Rhiahn.; The Squad later approached Hank Pym for help in dealing with the giant monster. They used his Pym Particles to shrink Godzilla down in size and proceeded to bring him back to New York City while they decided what to do with him. Godzilla, however, escaped into the Hudson River and soon began regrowing in size as the particles slowly began to wear off. The Squad eventually had no choice but to accept the help of the Fantastic Four and their scientific genius leader, Reed Richards. They subdued the monster and used Dr. Doom's time machine to send him back to his own time period (due to his radioactivity, the machine actually transported him to the extra-dimensional Dinosaur World). Godzilla's radioactivity also caused the time machine to malfunction and Godzilla was soon returned to the present at his full size in the middle of New York City. After a battle against the combined efforts of the Godzilla Squad, the Fantastic Four and the Avengers, Rob, Godzilla's only true human friend, persuaded the monster to return to the sea and leave the United States peacefully. The Squad was presumably disbanded soon after this occurance.

+Species / origin: Extradimensional mystical creatures
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Realm of the Beasts
+History:
+The Great Beasts are a group of powerful creatures from another dimension who have tried several times to take over Earth. They were trapped a thousand years ago in their own dimension by the gods of northern Canada but the magicks holding them began to weaken recently. Nelvanna, one of the gods mated with a human and gave birth to Narya who would become the Alphan "Snowbird".; The first Beast to break through the Great Barrier was Ranaq, just over a hundred years ago, by temporarily possessing a man who was trying to use Ranaq for his own needs. A time travelling contingent of Alpha Flight was able to beat him though, forcing him back to his own dimension.; The next Beast to break free was Tanaraq, who broke free when Walter Langkowski attempted to turn himself into a Hulk. The two formed a symbiotic relationship wherein Walter would temporarily change places with Tanaraq in the Beasts' own dimension, the Realm of the Beasts. Snowbird had no choice but to eventually slay Tanaraq after he took control of Langkowski.; Tundra broke free before this ever happened as it took some time before Tanaraq controlled Walter. He was called upon by Narya's father, who had gone insane. Shortly after, Kolomaq broke free, but Narya was able to defeat him once again.; Alpha Flight had to venture into the Realm of the Beasts to find Walter's soul. It was there that they encountered the other Beasts: Kariooq, Somon, and Tolomaq. Four of the Beasts were able to return to Earth when Somon (who was mistakenly believed to have been destroyed) affected Langkowski's subconscious into creating a formation which allowed them to break the dimensional barrier. A powerful explosion, created when Box destroyed Tundra, sent the Beasts back to their dimension.; Nate Gray accidentally awakened Tundra, Somon, and Tolomaq while attempting to psychically view his own future. He was able to vanquish Tundra by destroying the beast's head, and then defeated Somon and Tolomaq by telekinetically cancelling the gravitational pull of Earth on them, sending them rocketing into space.

+Transportation: Ashley Crawford's Private Jet (formerly); Sky-Cycle; Quin-Jetta (formerly); Squirrel-A-Gig (formerly); Bumper Buggy (formerly); Flat-a-Maran (formerly); Flatmobile
+Notes: A recurring theme of this team is their difficulty with naming:; Great Lakes Avengers or GLA - Observing that there were already East Coast and West Coast Avengers, Mr. Immortal dubbed his new team the Great Lakes Avengers. This name brought on the scrutiny of Hawkeye, but later they were granted official permission from Captain America the title. Although they continue to change their name, this is the most common title used.; Midwest Avengers - Upon first hearing their name, Vision asked ""Great Lakes?" Would not "Midwest" be a more appropriate nomenclature...?"; Lightning Rods - When they got an official sanction to become the Midwest branch of the Thunderbolts, the team was redubbed Lightning Rods.; Superhuman Warriors Operation Redistribution Division or S.W.O.R.D. - When it was revealed that the Thunderbolts were secretly the Masters of Evil, Mr. Immortal ventured becoming an official branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. named S.W.O.R.D. "the Superhuman Warriors Operation...Redistribution Division".; Great Lakes X-Men or GLX - When the team members realized they were all mutants, they decided to become the Great Lakes X-Men. When Marvel Girl heard they were calling themselves X-Men, she telepathically influenced Mr. Immortal into changing it.; Great Lakes Defenders or GLD - Mr. Immortal only briefly suggested name the Great Lakes Defenders before Doctor Strange magically influenced him into changing it.; Great Lakes Champions or GLC - After winning the Thing's superhero poker tournament and breaking out into a chorus of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_Are_the_Champions Queen's "We Are The Champions"], Mr. Immortal decide to call the team Great Lakes Champions over the objections of Hercules.; Great Lakes Initiative or GLI - After eagerly signing up under the Superhuman Registration Act, the team became the official government-sanctioned protectors of Wisconsin, the Great Lakes Initiative.; Great Lakes Power Pack - This title was used humorously with multiple past titles of the team.; America's Alpha Flight - According to Flatman, an anonymous person online dubbed the team "America's Alpha Flight".
+Trivia: Members of the Great Lakes Avengers were summoned into battle as Avengers during the Avengers/JLA crossover. Flatman was defeated by Prometheus, but was saved by the Beast. Big Bertha aided Wonder Woman in the final battle.; The 2005 GLA mini-series parodied the dark comic events Identity Crisis and Avengers Disassembled.

+History:
+===Origin===; After accidentally discovering his power to never die, Craig Hollis donned the superhero persona of Mr. Immortal and began fighting crime. He soon realized his heroic endeavors would be easier with a team and took out an ad calling for men and women of action. Meeting at a local YMCA, Mr. Immortal was joined by Big Bertha, Dinah Soar, Doorman, Flatman, and Leather Boy. Together they formed the Great Lakes Avengers as a sister team to the West Coast Avengers and (East Coast) Avengers.; ===Great Lakes Avengers===; The team began fighting crime and quickly caught the attention of Hawkeye and Mockingbird. The pair traveled to Wisconsin to check to these "impostor" Avengers. After determining they were just a group of (if somewhat oddball) heroes, Hawkeye and Mockingbird took it upon themselves to train the team. Originally the team heavily depended on Ashley Crawford's modelling income to provide funding for their headquarters and the team also used her private jet.; Not long after beginning training with Hawkeye and Mockingbird, the Great Lakes Avengers were called to Texas to help the Avengers, Captain America, and She-Hulk to rescue the Scarlet Witch and the Vision. After the team successfully aided in the rescue, Captain America gave them permission to use the Avengers title. The Great Lakes Avengers continued to train with Hawkeye and Mockingbird. When Terminus began attacking St. Louis, Missouri, Captain America called on The Great Lakes Avengers to battle him until the other Avengers could arrive as reinforcements. The Great Lakes Avengers were again called into action by Captain America to help him and the Human Torch respond to a mysterious distress call in the rescue of "Rick Jones".; ===Lightning Rods===; After the Avengers were seemingly killed during Onslaught, the Thunderbolts took over heroic responsibilities in New York. Attempting to "cash-in" on the popularity of the Thunderbolts, Mr. Immortal re-branded the team as the Lightning Rods. They also briefly teamed-up with Deadpool and Weasel when they crossed paths. When it was later revealed that the Thunderbolts were secretly the Masters of Evil, the team approached S.H.I.E.L.D. with the request to bring the Thunderbolts in themselves. Unfortunately, the Lightning Rods were no match for the Thunderbolts.; ===Misassembled===; Returning to their former name, Great Lakes Avenger and though they mostly just hung out and played cards, they still engaged in superheroics such as rescuing victims from a tornado in Ohio. When news came in that the Avengers had disassembled, a disheartened Mr. Immortal was reinvigorated and took the team out patrolling. The team came upon Maelstrom stealing a Chronal Accelerator. Unfortunately, Dinah Soar was killed during the battle. After Dinah's death, Mr. Immortal fell into a psychotic depression. Meanwhile, Doorman and Flatman traveled to New York City to recruit more new members. Although most heroes turned them down immediately, Squirrel Girl and Monkey Joe, her squirrel partner, agreed to join. Grasshopper also joined, but died almost immediately upon accepting his membership. The GLA continued to investigate Maelstrom's theft, and with help from Deathurge, the team narrowly defeated him and prevented his plans to end time.; ===Great Lakes X-Men? Defenders? Champions?===; With a cease and desist order and threatened lawsuit from the Maria Stark Foundation, the GLA again had to rebrand. When the surviving member of the GLA all realized they were mutants, they decided to become the Great Lakes X-Men (or GLX). Although the team continued to operate under the X-Men title, they soon abandoned their leather X-Men-style costumes because the outfits were designed by their former teammate/arch nemesis, Leather Boy.; The GLX dealt with a steady increase in supervillain activity around Wisconsin during the holiday season including an attack by Dr. Tannenbaum's evil pine trees, a scheme by Thanos using the Pyramatrix, and an insurgency of M.O.D.O.K. and A.I.M.; The team attended the Thing's superhero poker tournament under Squirrel Girl's invitation. Upon hearing they were using the X-Men's name, Marvel Girl used her telepathy on Mr. Immortal, who ventured the Great Lakes Defenders, before being similarly rebuffed by Doctor Strange. When they all reached the final table, with Flatman beating the Thing, they plumped for Great Lakes Champions (or GLC), despite Hercules' protests.; ===Great Lakes Initiative===; The GLC eagerly signed up under the Superhuman Registration Act, becoming the official government sanctioned protectors of Wisconsin, the Great Lakes Initiative or GLI. Despite signing up immediately, the GLI team was attacked by Deadpool in a misbegotten plan to win government favor by bringing in unregistered, rogue superhumans.; The GLI enjoyed the legitimacy the Initiative brought, and especially enjoyed the government funding. The GLI reluctantly teamed up with Deadpool to stop A.I.M. from using an "Inebriation Wave" powered by Dionysus. Deadpool was then granted reserve membership on the team, but he was forcibly evicted from their headquarters after proving too much of an annoyance. Before leaving, Deadpool broke the neck of the all-new Grasshopper who was attempting to join the GLI.; During the Skrull invasion of Earth, the GLI's newest member, Grasshopper, was discovered to be a Skrull, and was killed by the team immediately. When Norman Osborn took over S.H.I.E.L.D., he reassigned Gravity to join the GLI.; Feeling that she was holding the team back by single-handedly defeating villains like Thanos, M.O.D.O.K., Mandarin, Doctor Doom, Giganto, Fin Fang Foom, Korvac, Baron Mordo, and Ego the Living Planet, Squirrel Girl and Tippy-Toe left the GLA and returned to New York City.; During the attacks of the Serpent, the GLA members were attacked by angry, fearful mobs, and sometime later they disbanded and went their separate ways.; ===GLA in Detroit===; They spent time apart until the ownership of the trademark for the "Avengers" name was transferred, as a consequence of major shake-ups in Stark Holdings, to the only other entity who had also applied for the trademark, Flatman. Connie Ferrari, the legal representative of the Avengers, attempted to negotiate with him to buy the name back, and Flatman managed to get her to reinstate the Great Lake Avengers as a permanent and official addition to the Avengers.; He then attempted to get the band back together, but only Big Bertha and Doorman appeared, because Doreen was now too famous and, unknown to them Craig's phone was now in possession of a local girl named Pansy. Unwilling to "assume things," Pansy showed up at the rendezvous point, an abandoned Stark Assembly and Manufacturing plant the Avengers had set up as the GLA new headquarters in Detroit, Michigan, and waited for the Great Lakes Avengers. Once they arrived, Pansy cleared up the confusion caused by her presence and showed the team around the facilities.; The team's problems began when they had the tremendous idea of going to a local bar in the middle of the night and try to convince them to turn the music volume down. The owner Nain Rouge instead refuses and begins to insult them. Upon getting arrested after a fight, Flatman and Bertha are left in jail with a young girl named Goodness Silva, who can turn into a wolf. There are some complications, but everything turns out fine as they're all later released thanks to Connie Ferrari, the legal representative of the Avengers.; Following this misadventure, the team was served with an injunction, forbidding them from performing any superhero activity. Mister Immortal rejoined the team and went on patrol with Flatman while Bertha, Doorman, and Goodness, now going by the name of Good Boy, investigated Nain Rouge's bar, where they found the villain was in fact councilman Dick Snerd. When Flatman and Mister Immortal returned from patrol, they discovered Bertha and Good Boy had taken Snerd hostage. When Connie arrived to help the team with the injunction, she not only found that they had taken Snerd, but also that in a fit of rage, Good Boy severely hurt him. The team dropped him off at a hospital and escaped.; The Great Lakes Avengers' following call to action occurred after Big Bertha was kidnapped by a scientist named Doctor Nod who harvested her DNA to create a pill supplement to alter its user's weight at will. Even though Bertha managed to escape from his grasp on her own, Doctor Nod tried to take her down, consuming an enormous amount of his own pills in the process, becoming a giant mindless blob who started to tear the city apart. Doctor Nod was finally defeated after Doorman teleported Mister Immortal inside his body and had him punch his heart.; Even though the city applauded the heroes, the GLA's rejoicing was abruptly cut short when Deadpool appeared on their doorstep and, as a member of the Avengers Unity Division, told them they were fired, informing them that their legal claim of the name didn't hold up in court. He stated that people simply didn't like them, but then comforted them, proclaiming that in a few years they could try to be in the spotlight again.; ===Reckoning War===; At some point, Good Boy left the GLA. Afterwards, the team traveled to Milwaukee, where they were attacked by a being known as the Cormorant, who was looking to retrieve the Grasshopper legs, now in the possession of a new user. They tried to defend him, alongside their former teammate Squirrel Girl, but were unsuccessful, and the Cormorant severely injured the new Grasshopper in order to get what he wanted.

She managed her proteges, Helen Feliciano, alias Letha; Davida DeVito, alias Titania; Marian Pouncy, alias Poundcakes; and Melissa "Mimi" Schwartz, alias Screaming Mimi; to become the wrestling team known as the original Grapplers.; The original Grapplers became renowned for their colorful personalities and ringside antics, but despite Auntie Freeze's tireless promotion of her four proteges, the wrestling federation denied them the opportunity to make the amount of money their male counterparts made.; Titania, the leader of the team, was contacted by a representative of the Roxxon Oil Company in charge of covert operations whose identity has not yet been revealed but who happened to be a wrestling fan. This representative offered the four the opportunity to earn supplementary income by performing a covert operation for the corporation. The four agreed and were given special paraphernalia to assist them in their mission. The four were sent to accompany the woman warrior Thundra in invading Project: Pegasus, a federal government energy research project. Roxxon warned a monopoly on major research into tapping new energy sources. Therefore, following orders from. Roxxon, once the four Grapplers were inside the Project, they began sabotaging and destroying equipment there. However, the mission failed due to the Project's then-security chief Quasar, and the four Grapplers were tried and jailed for their misdeeds.; The four Grapplers were sent to the prison at Ryker's Island. Eventually, they became the leaders of the other women prisoners there and virtually ran the women prisoner's area at night. However, they were overpowered in battle by the mutant hero Dazzler when she was imprisoned there for a night.; When the Grapplers were finally paroled, they discovered that the women's wrestling movement had lost its momentum without them. The Grapplers undertook certain petty crimes to support themselves, and at one point made an unsuccessful attempt to take revenge on the hero the Thing, who had helped thwart their mission at Project Pegasus. The Grapplers were never caught and imprisoned during this time.; Auntie Freeze, in the meantime, was scouting out new candidates for female wrestling stardom and succeed in finding several promising ones. When wrestling promoter Edward Garner organized the Unlimited Class Wrestling Federation for the increasing number of wrestlers who were barred from other wrestling associations because of their superhuman strength, Auntie Freeze contacted him to arranged for the formation of a women's division. Auntie Freeze, like many of the managers and trainers of male wrestlers, was contacted by Power Broker, Inc., an agency which promised to augment an individual's strength to very high levels for a very high price. Auntie Freeze sent all of her new clients as well as the original Grapplers to the Power Broker to undergo treatment. Thus, the Grapplers were given superhuman powers. The original Grapplers had by now returned to being managed by Auntie Freeze. The four original members and Fraley's new female wrestlers were now collectively called the Grapplers and were legitimate professional wrestlers in the UCWF. The original Grapplers resented the newcomers to a certain extent, but were mostly pleased by now being able to earn money without having to resort to crime.; Over time, membership of the Grapplers were shaken slightly. Titania lost a bout for leadership of the Grapplers to the newcomer Battleaxe, and was soon after was slain by the enigmatic villain Scourge, disguised as a woman wrestler named Golddigger. Scourge also killed Letha, who was searching for a way to avenge Titania's death. Screaming Mimi was contacted by Baron Zemo to join his version of the criminal team Masters of Evil, a path which would lead her to eventually become a founding member of the Thunderbolts as Songbird. Poundcakes remained a freelance mercenary.; Letha and Titania, adopting the new codename Lascivious, were resurrected by the Hood as part of the Deadly Dozen. They gained new psionic powers and attempted to kill the Punisher. They later reunited with Poundcakes and a brand new Screaming Mimi and attempted to get revenge on the original, now known as Songbird. The Grapplers were eventually defeated, with Songbird convincing the new Screaming Mimi not to pursue a life of crime.; Letha and Lascivious later relocated to Bagalia and joined the Masters of Evil. Letha, Poundcakes, and the second Titania were then seen at a bar, flirting with Beast and Wonder Man.; Poundcakes and Letha attempted to seek out redemption and worked briefly with G.I.R.L., though Poundcakes would return to a life of crime.

+Created by: Carl Burgos
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City
+Weapons: The human versions of the Green Flames were equipped with asbestos lined suits that allowed them to burst into the super-cold green flames. They were able to radiate extreme cold that could cause buildings to crumble or men frozen in a matter of moments. The suits were not built to handle the extreme heat of the android Human Torch who could easily broil a Green Flame alive with his powers.; The robot versions were able to fly, project freezing green fire balls, and radiate extreme colds. Due to it's massive size, Project: Blockbuster was more impervious to heat, however the right combination of extreme heat and super-strength (caused by the Human Torch and Namor combining their powers) was sufficient to destroy the robot.
+History:
+The Green Flames were organized by the evil Doctor Manyac in the early 1940s. Wearing an asbestos suits that could protect from extreme cold of a green flame they were unleashed to New York City causing the buildings to collapse, to achieve Manyac's demands for a ransom. When the city refused to deal with him, Manyac ordered his minions to destroy the slum section of the city. The Green Flames were opposed by the android Human Torch who defeated them. Ultimately, Manyac was arrested.; In the spring of 1941, Manyac would be hired by the Nazis who also kidnapped robotic genius Professor Philo Zogolowski. Zogolowski was forced to work with Manyac to combine their technologies to create a robotic army of Green Flames, including a gigantic robot dubbed "Project: Blockbuster" to unleash against the United States. This plot was discovered when they attempted to capture the Human Torch and learn his secrets to utilize to further advance their robots. In capturing the Torch they would lead the Sub-Mariner, Toro, Betty Dean, the Angel, and the Ferret to their location. In the ensuing battle the Green Flame robots (including Project: Blockbuster) were all destroyed and Manyac seemingly slain.

The organization had at least 312 bases spread across the world and a network of satellites which it controlled. The Jade Claw had her forces execute a global campaign against the Atlas Empire and took out all of its bases as well as its tactical air and naval footholds.; Led by Jimmy Woo, Atlas used the Dragon's Corridor to launch a counter-strike to the Great Wall's mountain base in China. A battle ensued between the forces of the Great Wall and a tank division of the Chinese Army on one side and the forces of Atlas and the Atlantean Army on the other side.

The Prism was possibly the creation of the Kree, a reclusive "magical" race.; The Norn was a mystic young man, though Doctor Strange of Earth-616 didn't believed he had the gift and asserted the Norn had in fact been gathering, or rather stealing, items of power for most of his life.; Sun God (Zoran) was "Post-Universal", originating from another reality.<!-- origins; The Jovian; The Rider (Wayne); Boundless -->; Earth was eventually invaded by Xeno-Geneticists, a coalition of Kree and Skrulls who intended to apply their mad sciences on humanity, tinkering manking as "alien gods". The Archetypes of J.U.S.T.I.C.E., Earth's heroes, fell in combat during the invasion.; Four years later, the Great Society formed and was able to repel the invaders, bringing an end to the Age of J.U.S.T.I.C.E., and were regarded as the world's saviors.; ===Great Society===; The Great Society became Earth's greatest heroes. They resided at the Tower, a monument "erected for the Science Games".; The Great Society defended their world from all manner of threats, and eventually became aware of the incursions. They swore to stop the incursions without bloodshed, managing to save their world from destruction by averting the incursions bloodlessly. One of the methods they utilized was the Wishing Box, with its 6 planes of Forever Glass, to manipulate reality and set their reality out of phase, at the cost of destroying the box itself.; After facing and defeating an incursion by the Mapmakers, the Great Society faced yet another one immediately after, this time facing the Illuminati of Earth-616.; The Great Society no longer had the means to stop this incursion bloodlessly like they had before, nor did the Illuminati, who informed them of their last resort being an antimatter bomb to destroy one of the Earths. The Illuminati tried to convince them to work together in finding a way out of the situation before succumbing to the worst-case scenario. Rider however was mistrustful of the Illuminati's intentions, prompting Namor to attack Rider in the belief that a fight to the death was the inevitable conclusion, beginning the battle for the fate of their worlds.; The Great Society initially took the upper hand, but Doctor Strange turned the tide by unleashing an eldrich creature which killed most of the Great Society and fatally injured Sun God. As the Illuminati were leaving this Earth, having set the antimatter injector to detonate, Zoran begged them not to destroy his Earth. Black Panther offered to take him with them, but he refused, preferring to die on his Earth with his friends.; With ten minutes left until the Earths collided, Namor activated the antimatter injector from his Earth and destroyed the Great Society's world.

+History:
+===United Lands of Earth===; When Earth's climate collapsed in the 1980s due to the erosion of the ozone layer, a cancer epidemic broke out and humanity readapted with bionic implants, becoming a society of cyborgs. In 1988, the American astronaut Major Vance Astro embarked upon the first manned space flight to another star system, in a mission that would take him over a thousand years to accomplish as he was in cryogenic stasis. In the 1990s, a Bionic Wars was ignited among the growing cybernetic population as food became scarce. Following a nuclear attack during the war, the first version of the United Lands of Earth Confederation was established in 1995 uniting mankind in one global government. Unfortunately, anti-mutant prejudice remained strong and prompted Earth’s mutants to relocate to Jupiter’s moon of Europa.; The united and prospering humanity suffered by 2001, when Martians invaded Earth and decimated, consumed and enslaved humanity. For decades, the Martians ruled the planet before mysteriously abandoning it in 2075. Afterward, during barbaric centuries, Earth was ruled by “Techno-Barons” in various warring city-states. By 2525, the last of these Barons were dethroned, enabling Earth to create a new Global Federation by 2553. Over the course of the following century, Earth colonized the other planets of the solar system, genetically engineering each specific populace to withstand the environment of each colony, many of which were specialized outposts. Earth began a new golden age of scientific and social advancement. Jupiter became Earth’s manufacturing colony and main military installation; Mercury was a mining colony; Pluto housed scientific expeditions. By the mid 2900s, Earth constructed their first starship fleet based in Harkovian Physics, arriving at the nearest star system Alpha Centauri, and founding a colony in Centauri-IV, home of tribal society of the Centaurians.; This new golden age was not destined to last. In 3006, Major Astro reached Centauri-IV, being shocked to find Earthmen in his destination, but also celebrated as hero upon landing. The male Badoon of the Eastern Sector invaded the solar system one year later, destroying many of Earth's colonies and ultimately killing nearly every inhabitant of the three settlements on Jupiter, Pluto, Mercury, and Centauri-IV. Commander Drang ruled Earth himself, decimating the technologically inferior space fleet of the United Lands of Earth. Millions of human beings were exterminated and the remainder forced into slave labor.; ===The Badoon Wars===; Space militia pilot Charlie-27, a native to the Jupiter colony, returned from a solo tour of duty and discovered his home world overrun by the Badoon. He escaped by jumping into a teleportation tube and arrived on Pluto. He joined forces with Martinex, the last Plutonian left on the planet, who had volunteered to stay behind when his people evacuated in order to destroy Pluto's scientific achievements to keep them out of enemy hands. Charlie-27 and Martinex teleported to Earth, hoping to learn the extent of the Badoon invasion. On Earth, Major Vance Astro was captured alongside the Centauri Yondu, whose tribe had been exterminated by a marauding Badoon. Astro and Yondu evaded them and encountered Charlie-27 and Martinex. The four survivors decided to band together to rid the Earth and its colonies from Badoon oppression. In the years to come, their resistance built a reputation as the Guardians of the Galaxy, becoming a force committed to oppose the Badoon occupation. Counting with little resources, the Guardians sought for a vehicle. In Jupiter, they clashed with the Badoon, eventually crashing in Europa, the now abandoned mutant former oasis. There, they managed to empower themselves with super hero costumes and a spaceship they baptized as Captain America.; Seven years later, in 3014, the Earth-woman Tarin was accidentally transported over a thousand years back in time and across dimensions by the Fantastic Four's Time Platform in the Baxter Building. There, she encountered Captain America, Sharon Carter, and the Thing, eliciting their help in her time. Falling to the Zom Patrol and the Monsters of Badoon, the time-traveling heroes were captured by Drang. Tarin had her superior, Zakkor contact the Guardians of the Galaxy, who, inspired by Captain America, joined with the heroes from the past in finally freeing New York City from the Badoon.; Having a long way ahead of themselves, the Guardians of the Galaxy kept their efforts of liberating Earth's empire from the Badoon. They traveled a thousand years back to the past, in hopes of collecting a Badoon memory tape containing a detailed account of the aliens' first and invasion attempt in the 20th Century that had ultimately failed due to the Silver Surfer. In the past, they encountered the Defenders and helped them defeat the monster Eelar. Although they failed to find the info they had come for, they recruited the Defenders to help them liberate Earth once again.; Back in the 31st century, the heroes unwittingly found themselves in the home planet of the Badoon, where the Sisterhood of Badoon resided. Assisted by the mysterious Starhawk, the "one-who-knows", they enlisted the female Badoon to oppose their male counterparts. The Defender Doctor Strange reassembled the heroes and magically sabotaged the Badoon, prompting Starhawk to join the Guardians of the Galaxy. The Badoon were compromised and the Guardians had a new chance to stop them for good, leading the Defenders to return to the past. In time, the Badoon Empire was ultimately routed as the Guardians deactivated all of their bases and had the Sisterhood of Badoon arrest the prisoners.; ===Journey to the Center of the Galaxy===; After the Badoon's final defeat, the Guardians of the Galaxy found themselves unable to fit into civilian life and decided to leave Earth as per Starhawk's suggestion, since he had a mission for the team. As space explorers aboard the Captain America starship, they found a craft adrift in outer space and inhabited by last surviving Mercurian colonist, Nikki. A survivor of the Badoon invasion and a weapons expert, she joined the Guardians of the Galaxy. Marching towards the center of the galaxy, the Guardians of the Galaxy clashed with the Karanada, an all-consuming and empty entity that feasted on galaxies. Starhawk seemingly perished when attacking the void of hunger by himself.; With their ship afflicted by technical difficulties, the Guardians of the Galaxy found their quest momentarily interrupted as they were stranded on an asylum planet that came to emulate Earth. Back to their mission, the group witnessed the Karanada devouring several worlds. Traveling inside it, the Guardians found Starhawk alive and reached the Convent of Living Fire. Meanwhile, Vance Astro discovered the humanoid planetoid known as the Topographical Man, merging with it. After the nuns of the Living Fire had Nikki ascend to a fiery cosmic form, she joined Astro in a metaphysical act of love that destroyed the Topographical Man, as the source of the Karanada, ending its threat.; During the adventure, Starhawk's home in a orbital meteorite was destroyed by the Reavers of Arcturus. This caused his form to be replaced by an alternate form as Aleta, who was Starhawk’s stepsister and wife. Aleta led the Guardians of the Galaxy to the Arcturus system and informed the team that she shared her existence with Starhawk and that their three children were missing. The children had been kidnapped, brainwashed and turned into psychic vampires by their grandfather Ogord, who wished for revenge against the defecting Starhawk. During the combat against the Reavers, Captain America was destroyed. In retaliation, the Guardians of the Galaxy managed to overpower Ogord. However, as they attempted to interrupt the mind control devices in the children, their powers reversed and were aged at an unstoppably fast rate, being turned to dust, forever scarring Aleta's and Starhawk's relationship.; Escaping Arcturus in Ogord's scout-ship Kammar, the Guardians reached a lost Federation space station named Drydock. There, the malfunctioning computer Hollis-12 entrapped the Guardians and tormented Charlie-27 with holograms of his former Jovian allies. Eventually, Charlie-27 was able to free the Guardians of the Galaxy and deactivate the erratic intelligence. With Drydock as their new base, the Guardians of the Galaxy got access to technilogical wonders as their new resources, among them a new ship, the Freedom’s Lady.; ===Korvac===; The Guardians of the Galaxy's fate got intertwined with the heroes from the past one more time. When investigating the source of a deadly power beam, they were attacked by a mysterious assailant and found the frozen body of God of Thunder Thor, who had been unwittingly transported through time being lost in outer space. The menace was revealed to be Korvac, a former human slave of the Badoon who became a cyborg with living computer intelligence and teleporting and mind-controlling abilities. Thor and the Guardians of the Galaxy were attacked by Korvac's Minions of Menace in Korvac's planetoid as the villain planned to obliterate the Solar System. During the battle, Korvac was overpowered but vanished before being defeated. Thor returned to his era following Korvac's disappearance.; Korvac actually teleported himself to Thor's era, where he tampered with Galactus' Worldship absorbing enough Power Cosmic to achieve god-like power levels. The Guardians of the Galaxy followed him, taking Drydock to Earth's orbit in the past. S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury alerted the Avengers about the interloping space station. As Earth's Mightiest Heroes investigated, Thor introduced the Guardians of the Galaxy as heroes from the future. They revealed to the Avengers they hoped to protect Vance Astro’s teenage counterpart, who was a likely target for Korvac, the Enemy.; Adopting the civilian identity of Michael, Korvac was untraceable to most of his adversaries, except to Starhawk and Aleta. He secretly rendered himself invisible to Starhawk's cosmic senses, being effective in hiding himself from the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Avengers. Korvac had other opponent in the form of the Elder of the Universe Collector, who kidnapped several Avengers to protect them from Korvac's ire. The Guardians of the Galaxy tracked the Collector's base and the Avengers stormed it, being able to defeat him. Before they could acquire information about Korvac, the Collector was furtively slain. Moreover, the Collector's daughter Carina had involved herself with Korvac as part of her father's plan of stopping him. She defected, however, after falling in love with Korvac and his ideas for the universe.; The source of the blast that ended the Collector was pinpointed by the Avengers in Forest Hills. The group found the seemingly inoffensive Michael and Carina. However, as Starhawk was unable to perceive Michael, he revealed himself as Korvac to the heroes. The other Guardians were immediately summoned to help in the fight. Korvac exploded Drydock, seemingly killing Vance Astro. During the fight, however, Korvac and Carina broken-heartedly saw no sense in their goals, wishing themselves to be dead instead. Following their enemy's suicide, the Guardians of the Galaxy were granted honorary membership in the Avengers and planned to return to their century by using the Collector's technology.; As the Guardians checked out the Collector's ship, Drydock, which had been restored after Korvac's demise, was seized by the alien known as Faceless One, who captured Ms. Marvel in order to control her. To torment Ms. Marvel, the villain forced her former work colleague Salia Petrie to attack her. Ms. Marvel teamed up with Vance Astro, who had evading the villain by himself. Together, the two heroes defeated the Faceless One, recovered Petrie and freed Drydock. Drydock then became a target for the Deterrence Research Corporation, in an attempt to destroy it and steal its futuristic secrets. In retaliation, the Guardians of the Galaxy counter-attacked, wishing to eliminate records of their existence in the 20th century to guarantee their existence in the future. With Spider-Man's help, the Guardians had their secret safe and returned to Drydock.; After making the necessary adjustments to time travel, the Guardians of the Galaxy were ready to embark to the 31st century. However, before leaving, they discovered Vance Astro had gone missing. Starhawk contacted Thing and the Fantastic Four for help in locating Astro, who had arrived on Earth in order to make contact with his teenage self in order to convince him of never becoming an astronaut. The coexistence of the same being from different eras could cause catastrophic results to the fabric of space-time. The Guardians of the Galaxy attempted to prevent their teammate from destroying the possibilities of their group being formed in the future. In the end, Major Astro's influence caused a divergence in reality as he unleashed his younger self's latent psionic powers. His and the Guardians' existence was still ensured, but the boy he was would not grow up to become a Guardian of the Galaxy. The Guardians were finally able to return to the 31st century, the era they truly belonged to.; Back home, the Guardians still fought the Badoon hordes, when Starhawk's senses were nullified once again and he claimed that another confrontation with Korvac was imminent. To negate Korvac, the Guardians of the Galaxy returned to the past one more time, contacting the Fantastic Four for help. Before ending his life, Korvac had transferred his power and essence to an ancestor of his in order to avoid an Ultimate Nullifier beam fired by Galactus. Mister Fantastic redirected the beam across times, forcing Korvac to escape one more time. The Guardians followed Korvac to the 26th century, expecting to intercept another of his ancestors, the man named Varley. Corrupted by Korvac's powers, Varley easily captured the Guardians, who were freed by that era's Thor. The villain was consumed and Korvac's essence fled to the future.; The Guardians of the Galaxy made their way to a man named Marshach, an ally of the Protector of the Universe Silver Surfer who had used Korvac's power to create a paradise world. The Silver Surfer fought to protect his friend from the Guardians of the Galaxy, but was ultimately suspicious upon noticing that Marshach wielded Galactus' Power Cosmic and tortured the Guardians. This led Marshach to renounce Korvac's essence, which one more time jumped to the future. In the year of Korvac's birth, 2977, the Guardians of the Galaxy made their final stop. On the Moon, the Guardians faced Korvac's father. The fight was moved to the Watcher's Citadel. After being born, Korvac consumed his own father to acquire power. The omnipotent infant was encased by Sorcerer Supreme Krugarr and his master, the Ancient One, and had his power reclaimed by Galactus. The Guardians of the Galaxy faced the dilemma of ending Korvac in the past and prevent his ascension. Convinced by Aleta, they ultimately returned him to his mother and traveled back to their time.; ===Quest for the Shield===; In 3017, the Guardians of the Galaxy embarked on a quest dedicated to recovering the lost shield of Captain America due to an excerpt from the prophetic Book of Antag. During their quest, they found a technologically advanced bomb in the primitive planet Courg. This was part of an invasion performed by conqueror Taserface of the ravaging race known as Stark, who worshipped Tony Stark after experiencing a technological revolution by having contact with his arsenal. In a brutal display, the Guardians fought the Stark, which resulted in the separation of Starhawk and Aleta as well as the destruction of the Freedom’s Lady. Starhawk recruited the former Herald of Galactus Firelord to help the Guardians achieve victory, although he honorably refused to accompany the group permanently. Claimed a Stark Earth-like spaceship for their own, the Guardians named it the Captain America II.; Captain America's shield was found by the Guardians in a planet run by the artificial intelligence named Mainframe. Due to the recurring competition of the mercenary team Force, who also wished for the shield, Mainframe envisioned a contest to determine which group was worthy of the boon. The Guardians of the Guardians experienced challenging matches against the Force, but were ultimately victorious as Major Vance Astro proved himself worthy of wielding the shield though at the cost of Martinex's safety. The Force retreated, being lost to the Guardians.; ===The Protégé===; Following their success, the Guardians of the Galaxy wandered through space, eventually finding several beings trapped in cryogenic sleep. Upon contact with the station, they found the vampiric Malevolence feasting on the captured people. Malevolence was fended off by Starkhawk and escaped, expressing her wishes of looking for a "child". Martinex recovered after this confrontation and unsuccessfully asked Astro to become the leader of their group. Meanwhile, Yondu became a problematic teammate, as his obsession with the Centaurian member of the Force Photon caused him to rebel against the Guardians in order to search for her and repopulate his species. After a fight, he was calmed down by Starhawk.; In their next adventure across the galaxy, the Guardians landed on planet Haven, the final destination of Earth's mutants. The planet was ruled by Rancor and her few mutant lieutenants, with the majority of the population being enslaved humans. Starhawk sent some of the Guardians to diplomatically dialogue with Rancor and others of them to assist the Huma Resistance. Rancor's forces captured the Guardians and killed the Resistant except for human Giraud and the shapeshifter Replica. The Guardians brutally retaliated, with Starhawk introducing Giraud to the power of the Phoenix. The Guardians of the Galaxy defeated Rancor, who fled with her lieutenants, while Starhawk executed a massive exodus from Haven to Mainframe's planet by himself, causing the Guardians to distrust him.; Replica then infiltrated Captain America II in wishes of becoming a Guardian of the Galaxy, something that was revealed when the Guardians successfully assisted Firelord combat Taserface, who in seek of vengeance and piloting an updated armor as Overkill. Overkill had planted a bomb in Captain America II which was intercepted by Aleta. Before the Guardians could make the necessary repairs, they were attacked by Autolycus, the Spirit of Vengeance from planet Sarka, who believed the Guardians to be part of the Universal Church of Truth and knocked Starhawk out. Upon learning Replica was a worshipper of the Church, the star rider attacked the heroes, but ultimately helped them evade the Universal Church's fleet with no success. Some of the Guardians were captured, but escaped the Church due to the actions of opposite believers Replica and the Spirit of Vengeance.; As Starhawk informed Aleta about the messiah of the Universal Church of Truth Protégé soon choosing a Matriarch for their organization, she led a mission to prevent Malevolence, now leading the Force, from reaching the position. Malevolence's father, Mephisto, was revealed to have manipulated the crises that afflicted the Guardians in a quest for power. In the Homeworld, the Guardians joined the race for the matriarchy and fought the Force, when Replica was revealed to be a Skrull. As the two groups agreed on a truce, Aleta personally challenged Malevolence, being victorious after the Protégé led his believers to attack the Guardians and the Force. However, Starhawk reabsorbed Aleta before she could finish Malevolence. Protégée led the Guardians leave under the condition of Replica staying as his playmate, while Malevolence was coronated as the Matriarch of the Universal Church of Truth.; ===Homecoming===; In pain for Aleta's demise, Major Vance Astro demanded to be returned to Earth and called for Starhawk's expulsion. After four years from their last visit, the Guardians of the Galaxy found the planet in ruin and were met by Tarin and her Commandeers. It was revealed that most of humanity became a victim to an overwhelming addiction to a holographic system pirated from Badoon technology while a gang of deadly Punishers emerged from the disaster. Considering their small scope of action, Martinex relinquished leadership of the Guardians of the Galaxy to Major Vance Astro and established himself in Mainframe's world in order to expand the group's operations, eventually envisioning the splinter team named Galactic Guardians, composed of past allies.; In their war against the Punishers, the Guardians and the Commandeers were offered help by the Inhuman survivor named Talon, while his master Krugarr tended to Vance Astro's health after having been shot by a Punisher. The fugitive heroes learned the Brotherhood of the Badoon was back to Earth and behind the recent tragedies. Krugarr restored Astro back to full health using the ionic blood of the Commandeer Hollywood. Rebranded as Major Victory, Astro liberated his allies from the Badoon and the Punishers. Charlie-27 devised a plan to detonate the villains' base and end their threat. Following their victory, the Guardians formed a base on Earth in the ruins of the Avengers Mansion and welcomed Talon to their ranks.; When Rancor and her lieutenants invaded Earth looking for her ancestor Wolverine in Madripoor, the Guardians intervened. The fight was influenced by a transformed Starhawk, now a being of darkness. Starhawk betrayed the Guardians of the Galaxy, attacking them instead of Rancor and her mutant allies. With Aleta taking control over his actions, the Guardians managed to recover and strike at Rancor, who escaped following her defeat. Soon after, the Guardians of the Galaxy were visited by the Silver Surfer on Earth, who, as the Protector of the Universe and wielder of the Quantum Bands as the Keeper, informed them about Galactus planning to consuming the Arima planet in the Centauri star system. Joining Firelord, the Guardians of the Galaxy focused their might on stopping Galactus. As the Keeper evacuated the water-breathing Alphans from the doomed Arima to Centauri-IV, Yondu discovered there were survivors in his native planet and chose to leave the team to act as the holy warrior for his people.; ===Back From the Future===; Starhawk proposed to the Guardians of the Galaxy that the Badoon should be destroyed in the age of heroes of the 20th century, before accomplishing their conquest. Simultaneously, Talon became inflicted with Graal's hereditary disease, effectively forcing the Guardians were forced to return to the past to receive specific aid for his Inhuman physiology. Arriving in Attilan in the past, the Guardians experienced a momentary conflict with the Inhuman Royal Family, who ultimately agreed to aid Talon. As he received medical treatment, the heroes fended off and defeated the Magus' evil doppelgängers, part of his attack on Earth's superhumans.; Seeking to help Earth, the Guardians of the Galaxy investigated the attack and found the Avengers headquarters being sieged by Doctor Octopus' Masters of Evil, who had taken advantage of the Avengers not being home while fighting the Magus. During the battle, the heroic Master of Evil Yellowjacket assisted the Guardians, betraying her group and leading to their defeat. However, Doctor Octopus retaliated and stood triumphant. The ordeal was interrupted by more doppelgängers, forcing Guardians and Masters to team up. With the doppelgängers defeated, the Avengers Complex was saved.; Contrary to Major Victory's will, the Guardians of the Galaxy resumed their mission of ending the Badoon in the past, being influenced by a dark Starhawk who then went missing. Major Victory preventively alerted the Badoon about the attack, providing them with advantage. The Badoon proposed a gladiator contest, and a bloodlust Nikki attacked her teammates to be the chosen warrior, while the Badoon selected Captain Universe L'Matto in order to prevent their genocide. Charlie-27 stopped Nikki and joined the battle instead, being brutally beaten. Doctor Strange then teleported Major Victory to the Baddon homeworld through the Dark Dimension in order to help the Guardians of the Galaxy. Simultaneously, Aleta proved her power over Starhawk, transforming him into a kid and sending him to relive his life in an endless cycle. Ascending as the new Starhawk, she rejoined the Guardians, defeated Captain Universe alongside Doctor Strange and proved her might to the Badoon, reprimanding them about attacking the solar system.; ===Doomed Earth===; Due to Charlie-27's injuries, the Guardians of the Galaxy were forced to return to their future. They found out they had picked up Yellowjacket as a hitchhiker. With her size-changing abilities she was able to stabilize Charlie-27. Rather than return her to her time, the team welcomed her into their membership. Contacting Martinex and his Galactic Guardians to help Charlie-27, the Guardians of the Galaxy found themselves battling the dread Dormammu, who destroyed Drydock after escaping the Dark Dimension. Recovered in the Galactic Guardians' ship, the Icarus, the heroes stroke back. Dormammu outpowered the heroes, murdering the Ancient One. Ultimately weakened by the Guardians, Dormammu was banished by Talon and Krugarr.; Aboard the Icarus, the Guardians of the Galaxy marched to Earth to check on the Comandeers, but found them brutally murdered by the Retox. Moreover, they clashed with Rancor and her lieutenants once again, learning that Earth had been thrown into a virtual reality addiction disgrace due to the actions of Doctor Doom, whose consciousness inhabited the Adamantium skeleton of Wolverine. Following a battle between Doom and a rebellious Rancor, the Guardians detonated his complex, ending his plans. Tarin became President of what remained of the United States and was given the shield of Captain America by Major Victory.; Wishing to restore literacy among the people who lived on Earth, Tarin asked the Guardians of the Galaxy to retrieve the Book of Kells. In their quest, the Guardians met Cuchulain, the Irish Wolfhound, and his guardian, Shamrock. Joined by Hollywood, the heroes fought Samhain and his banshees for the tome. With the villain defeated and book found, the Irish heroes were offered a place on the team, but declined membership, hoping to serve as Earth-bound heroes.; Another remnant of Doom's activities was the Inhuman slave mines in the Moon. Talon asked the Guardians of the Galaxy to help him liberate his people. The mines were ruled by Loki, and the Guardians were attacked by the Composite in the lunar caverns. Starhawk directly confronted Loki, being accidentally sent to Asgard, where an ignoble, alcoholic and unworthy Thor intervened. As Loki led his Inhuman minions to invade Asgard, the Guardians of the Galaxy followed. Thor's son, the God of Thunder Woden, wielded his father Mjolnir, bested Loki in battle alongside the Guardians, who cleansed Asgard from the Inhuman invaders.; Starhawk immediately gathered the Guardians of the Galaxy to assess the Beyonder's recent activities regarding the Protégé. However, when recruiting Yondu, the Guardians learned that their intervention in the Badoon Empire in the past created a temporal diversion due to Charlie-27 leaving a Centaurian Yaka dagger in the Badoon world. This artifact led the Badoon to discover Centauri-IV and inbreed with the natives hundreds of years before their original invasion. In Centauri-IV, the Guardians were also greeted by the original Starhawk, who decided to return to the past one more time to correct the timeline. The Starhawks corrected the temporal diversion by seizing the Yaka dagger from the past.; In the 31st century, the Beyonder summoned the Guardians of the Galaxy to deal with the omnipotent Protégé, now corrupted by Mephisto and Malevolence. Mephisto made Major Victory vulnerable to rapid aging again, and the Beyonder saved his life with a new containment suit. The Protégé and the Beyonder fought each other, being interrupted by the Living Tribunal, Eternity, the Hawk God and a Celestial while the Guardians faced Mephisto. The Protégé ascended to godhood, but was defeated by the cojoined efforts of the Guardians of the Galaxy and the abstract entities. In the end, the Protégé was arrested by the cosmic gods, while Mephisto and Malevolence were banished. Aleta was unlinked to the Hawk God, with the original Starhawk being the only one to serve as its avatar.; ===War of the Worlds===; Rancor and her lieutenants managed to seize control of the Inhuman settlement. Seeking to evade the Guardians of the Galaxy, they devised a scheme to sabotage them by kidnapping them to the new mutant planet, Haven II. As per Rancor's machinations, Charlie-27 was framed, being arrested on the false charges by the Constabulary. After being raped by Rancor, Talon teleported the team away from her planet. The Guardians focused on liberating Charlie-27, who was accused of being the murderer "Ripjack", from a maximum security prison planet, Stockade, recruiting Cuchulain for their mission. Talon devolved himself in order to heal from past injuries, going feral, losing his worth before Krugarr and being shrunk down by Yellowjacket. Meanwhile, the Guardians fought a child-minded inmate in the form of Drax the Destroyer in Stockade. Charlie-27's freedom was negotiated as he was proven to be innocent.; Investigating the activities of the real Ripjak, the Guardians of the Galaxy learned he was based on Mars. On the red planet, the heroes found several trophies of the Martian invasion of Earth in the war of the two worlds from one thousand years before. Ripjak assaulted the Guardians in the name of Mars as the last Martian, knocking them out and resuming his massacre. Confronting the serial killer, the Guardians learned he actually had as his mission eliminating a plague that had eradicated the Martians and many other races in the galaxy.; The heroes realized they faced the threat of Bubonicus, a genocidal plague-bringer who had previously clashed with the Galactic Guardians and was responsible for the galactic epidemic. Major Victory vouched for Ripjak as an ally, much to the defiance of other members, who had not consented to it. Assisted by the High Evolutironary, Ripjak and Major Victory had Bubonicus defeated. The Guardians regrouped, electing Charlie-27 as their leader to replace Major Victory as they temporarily separated to gain perspective.; Charlie-27 and Nikki investigated rumors about Jovian survivors being enslaved, Yellowjacket decided to return to her era, the erratic Talon permanently left to search his offspring with Rancor, and Major Victory and Aleta investigated the Beyonder's suit Astro worn. Martinex approached the Guardians, informing that Mainframe had analyzed that the war between Earth and Mars and that the Ripjak affair granted enough data to conclude that the attack from Mars could be stopped in the past. Under Charlie-27’s direction, the reunited team traveled back in past, counting with Martinex and Hollywood in their ranks. Their attempt to stop the Martian invasion from ever occurring was successful. However, when trying to return to their rightful home time, they were sabotaged by Loki's former minion, the Inhuman Wormhole, and became lost in space-time.; The Guardians of the Galaxy soon made their way back to the past one more time, this time meeting the New Warriors, a group of teen super heroes led by Vance Astro's young counterpart, now named Justice. To protect the time continuum, the Guardians attacked the New Warriors Speedball, who was in fact a time-traveling impostor. This led to a confrontation between the two groups, which was interrupted by Timeslip.; Some few years later, in the past, Vance Astro was found in Limbo Ice by a group of galactic protectors that banded together after the Annihilation Wave invasion and the Phalanx conquest of the Kree Empire. Acting as cosmic hero in the past alongside these heroes, he paradoxically led them to name themselves the Guardians of the Galaxy.; ===Time Runs Out===; The Guardians of the Galaxy got stuck in a time loop caused by a temporal instability. For that reason, they relived their war against the Badoon many times. On Earth, they rescued and recruited the young Geena Drake, which Starhawk's senses identified as vital to their success. In the Hideaway Parliament in Deneb System, the Guardians of the Galaxy tried to convince other societies to help them escape the ever folding timestream, but were massacred by the Badoon forces. After living this experience more than once and realizing the nature of the loop, Geena Drake decided to counter the attack.; Escaping the Badoon, the Guardians were attacked by the Stark based A-Sentience when devising a plan to stop the erosion of time, but eventually realized their enemies intended to prevent the end of reality as well. With the help of Spartax King Star-Lord, some the Guardians marched to the remains of Galactus, the Old Hunger, to be able to time travel, being intercepted and joined by the last Nova. After fighting the Herald Stormfront, the Guardians of the Galaxy entered the Old Hunger. The rest of the team witnessed their negotiations with Stark being destroyed by attacks performed by Nikki, who they were unable to recognize due to the time loop they had been trapped in.; Galactus informed Geena Drake about the upcoming end of existence in the past. Upon their arrival alongside Star-Lord and a Stark robotic unit, the fourth millennium Guardians of the Galaxy met their counterparts from the third millennium. The Stark unit reassembled the A-Sentience in the past, and the two groups of Guardians joined forces to stop them. Starhawk was able to link all the Guardians' minds, being able to restore their memories about each other that had been lost due to the temporal instability. The Guardians of the Galaxy then cloaked themselves and followed the Stark units to find the source of the temporal instability in Forest Hills.; Geena Drake and Yondu furtively entered a common house to face the bringer of the instability: Korvac. Korvac justified his actions by arguing he had been dismantling time to recreate the Multiverse under his guidance. He had manipulated Geena Drake, as a singular being on the entire Multiverse and the stable reference point around which he would recreate the universe. Before he could end his explanation, he was interrupted by Yondu, who shot him in the head and caused a time slip that kept only the time traveling Guardians on the site. This coincided with the last incursion, which caused the end of the Multiverse. Supported by the Guardians, Korvac tried to stop the universal decay, but failed to do so, leaving Geena Drake as the only survivor of the end of existence.

+Notes: The Guardians had the ability to disable rockets and return them to Earth, project messages through space and wipe memories. It is unknown if these are natural abilities or technological in nature.
+History:
+The origin of the so-called Guardians of Space is unknown. They are a group representing the interests of galactic peace and determine if a sentient race is ready for the stars. The Guardians became interested in the planet Earth in 1954 when the governments of the world were in the early stages of the space race. Due to the ongoing Cold War between the United States of America, Russia and China, they had deemed that humanity was not ready for the stars until they renounced war. When the first American rocket test was launched, the Guardians blocked it from leaving Earth's atmosphere, wiped out the crews memories of their encounter with the Guardians and sent them back to Earth with only a notion that mankind cannot live in space.; However, the rocket was later stolen by the international terrorist known as the Vulture who sought to take over the Moon. He was pursued by the Human Torch and Toro who boarded the ship before it left Earth's atmosphere. They made short work of the Vulture and his men but the ship was once again barred from leaving Earth's atmosphere. The Guardians revealed themselves to the Torch and decided to allow him to retain his memories of the encounter. The Torch kept the Guardian's existence a secret, only telling military officials that man's bridge to the stars was closed to them.; The Guardians of Space have not been seen since, for reasons that have yet to be revealed. They either accepted or were no longer capable of stopping the human race from reaching to the stars.

+Notes: The roster of this incarnation of the Guardians of the Galaxy is identical to that of Guardians from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
+History:
+The Guardians stole the Kree Mact from Ronan the Accuser. But in their attempt to escape Ronan’s ship, Groot and Rocket got separated from the rest and had to use an escape pod to get away. The pod crashed on Earth and attracted the attention of the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D.. Rocket and Groot were taken captive and brought to the Helicarrier. The rest of the Guardians followed the pod to Earth and attacked the Helicarrier to rescue their teammates and get the Kree Mact, which they believed the Avengers now had, back. However, after some fighting, they realized the Avengers were no villains and the whole thing was merely a misunderstanding.; When not much later Ronan also showed up and attacked the Helicarrier, demanding both the Kree Mact and the Guardians, Akira convinced the two teams to work together to fight him. Together, they were able to force Ronan to retreat.; The Guardians came to the Avengers aid again in the final battles with Dormammu and Loki, having been warned by Nick Fury. They first helped to defend the Helicarrier against an attack from the Mindless Ones, thus allowing the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. to complete their new Kree Mact powered cannons and defeat Dormammu with them. When Loki stole Dormammu's powers for himself, the Guardians tried to fight him, but he easily defeated them and caused their ship, the Milano, to crash. The Guardians got their ship operational again just in time to help Blade and Spider-Man fight off Loki's army of Mindless Ones so that Akira could deliver the Kree Mact to Iron Man.

+First appearance: LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-13122
+Equipment: Translator Implants; Aero packs; Spacesuits; [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walkman Sony Walkman]
+Weapons: Rocket's arsenal
+Transportation: Milano
+Notes: Initially, this version of the Guardians of the Galaxy was based on their Earth-616 counterpart. But as of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2, they have become similar to their Earth-199999 counterparts.
+Trivia: The character cards for Groot (Ravager), Kraglin, Tullk and Ego confirm that this version of the Guardians went through similar events to the movie Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
+History:
+The Guardians of the Galaxy were formed after a confrontation with Ronan.; The Guardians have visited Earth several times, becoming popular there.; ===The Build Stone===; The Guardians stole the Build Stone from the Ravagers. In their escape, Ronan would try to get the Stone back, but the Guardians manage to escape through an unstable portal. The instability of the portal caused Groot, Rocket and Drax to be teleported to other places. Star Lord would find Rocket on a forest planet, and Gamora would find Drax in the Sanctuary where Thanos was.; Yondu would take the Build Stone from Rocket, giving it to Ronan who takes it to Thanos. Thanks to Drax and Gamora, the Guardians knew Thanos' plan, which was to destroy half the universe with a piece of equipment called the BLT starting with Earth. Star-Lord, Rocket, Groot, Drax, Gamora and Mantis together would defeat Thanos and give Thor the Build Stone for him to keep in Asgard. As a celebration, the Guardians went for a BLT sandwich as a victory celebration.; ===Facing Ego===; At the request of Ayesha, high priestess of the Sovereign race, the Guardians will defend the Sovereign's precious anulax batteries from a multidimensional abilisk, offering them the newly captured Nebula in exchange once the monster has been destroyed.; The fight against the abilisk was a rough encounter for the group, but their triumph over it saw the Sovereign gladly handing over the prisoner, and had it not been for Rocket's theft of some of the batteries, the Guardians of the Galaxy could have called the mission a complete success. Instead they found themselves under attack by a vast fleet of drones intent on their destruction. The Milano sustained heavy damage in the ensuing fight, and it seemed that the crew were doomed, but then all parties were taken completely by surprise by the sudden arrival of a mysterious alien ship that destroyed every last drone of the Sovereign fleet.; The Guardians next met Ego, and after some events, the Guardians along with Kraglin and Yondu fought against Ego.; ===Kang's Invasion===; The Guardians of the Galaxy arriving on Xandar to help the Nova Corps fight against Kang the Conqueror. Kang calls in Eson the Searcher to fight the heroes. While the Guardians manage to defeat him, Kang takes Xandar away as the Guardians escape. The Guardians then receive a distress call from Earth of Nick Fury, so they travel there.; When they arrived on Earth, Nick Fury meets with the Guardians. Before the Guardians can warn Fury, Kang arrives and destroys the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, before taking Manhattan into Chronopolis, along with the Avengers, the Guardians, and other heroes.; The Guardians formed an alliance with the Avengers to defeat Kang. After Kang destroyed the Nexus of All Realities, Cosmo the Space Dog sends a message to Avengers Mansion, but the signal is too weak, so the Guardians head off to find something to help. This takes them to the Old West. While in a saloon, Star-Lord gets into a fight, and Gamora saves him. Star-Lord and Groot then go off while the rest of the Guardians are attacked by M.O.D.O.K., who has become the local sheriff and has the piece of tech they need. They team up with Old West Captain America and chase M.O.D.O.K. off. However, during the battle, Groot was captured by Captain Corbett, and in trying to free him, Rocket was also caught. Star-Lord helps Kid Colt and Arizona Annie take down Captain Corbett along with M.O.D.O.K. The Guardians, now in possession of the tech they need, return to Avengers Mansion.; Rocket uses the pieces to boost the signal, allowing Cosmo's message from Knowhere to come through. Tony Stark and Giant-Man believe that something on Knowhere can take down the shield surrounding Kang's Citadel. However, they'll need to find a way to bring it into Chronopolis. Doctor Strange suggests using the Nexus of All Realities' shards to do so.; After the Avengers locate the shards with help from Heimdall, the Guardians head toward Hala, where they fight against Ronan the Accuser and the Kree for the Nexus Shard, which Ronan planned to use to overthrow Kang. However, they are stopped by the Supreme Intelligence. The Guardians, under the control of Supreme Intelligence, battle Black Bolt and Medusa, but the two manage to free them from the villain's control. The Guardians ask the Inhumans for help against Kang, to which they agree.; In Avengers Mansion, Giant-Man and Tony Stark build a machine to bring Knowhere into Chronopolis, which can release an E.M.P. to disable Kang's shield. However, Kang, aware of their plans, sends Ego through instead. The heroes manage to send Ego back and bring in Knowhere. Cosmo then uses Knowhere to disable Kang's shields while the Nova Corps prepare to attack, but they are destroyed by Damocles Base, Kang's massive starship. Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Star-Lord travel into Damocles Base to bring it down. Kang plummets his starship to kill the heroes, sending in Korvac to keep them busy, but the heroes defeat Korvac and escape.; All the heroes in Chronopolis then fight off Kang's armies as Captain America, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, and Star-Lord attack Kang head-on. After the villain's defeat, the Guardians were present at the Avengers' victory party.; ===Gamora's Party===; Peter Quill planned to throw Gamora a big birthday party, as she never had one. Spider-Man and Captain America would help the Guardians in this mission, building a dance floor, a food table and a drum set for the Hulk to play music. The party really works and Gamora is happy.

However, their visions came into conflict when Tyreeze's sociopathic tendencies surfaced. He and Stella had a falling out, and she would bear facial scars as a reminder. Stella had then reformed the Guardians with the new members while Tyreeze went on to think bigger and eventually constructed an esodimensional Structure existing outside space and time, in which he spend untold number of years building an army of Highbreeds by conquering and assimilating entire cultures.

+History:
+The Guardians of the Galaxy reformed when Mantis had a premonition of the team raiding New Sirius, the archive ship of the Universal Church of Truth, in order to obtain the ultimate weapon to stop Galactus, who had turned the Church into his army of heralds and threatened the end of sentient life in the galaxy. However, Mantis' dementia caused her to misinterpret the vision. When the Guardians raided the New Sirius, they found a moribund Silver Surfer whom Mantis expected to be the weapon. Instead, the Surfer informed Mantis that they key to Galactus' defeat was the Ultimate Nullifier, located on Earth.; The Guardians were attacked and rapidly pinned down by the Imperial Guard. Unable to escape and aware of their impending deaths, Rocket Raccoon and Gamora sent their former teammate Star-Lord with the information necessary to carry out the plan, and died shortly afterwards. Receiving the message above the dead world of Spartax, Star-Lord could not cope with the loss of his lifelong friends and instead hallucinated that they came to get him and accompanied him on one last mission, instead of the reality that he ventured to Earth on his own.; After Star-Lord crippled the Universal Church by lobotomizing Galactus, Star-Lord decided to reform the Guardians to finally put an end to the Church.

+History:
+===To Guard the Galaxy===; Considering that independent cosmic heroes had been forced to join their might to combat the incursion of Annihilus and his Annihilation Wave into the universe, and Ultron and the Phalanx's conquest of the Kree Empire, Peter Quill, the champion legendarily known as the Star-Lord, decided to establish a proactive force to guard the galaxy without improvisation. On the recommendation of his ally Nova, the Human Rocket, Quill established a base of operations for his prospective group at the neutral station Knowhere, which conveniently had a teleportation system with near-universal range, an intelligent and psychic Soviet dog called Cosmo as its chief of security and galactic liaison to the new team and the super hero team known as the Luminals of Xarth, who became Quill's rivals and neighbors.; For his team, Quill enlisted former teammates and previous convicted criminals he had worked with in a special mission for the Kree Empire during the Phalanx conquest: weapons expert and tactical genius Rocket and the psychic counselor Mantis. Moreover, he recruited the cosmically powerful heroes who had also played parts during the previous crises, namely Phyla-Vell, the Protector of the Universe named Quasar and wielder of the Quantum Bands, and the recently reborn Warlock, a cosmic sorcerer and former possessor of the Infinity Stones. The deadly assassin Gamora, who had a reputation as the most dangerous woman in the galaxy, and Drax the Destroyer rounded up the team.; In their first mission, the group clashed with the revitalized Universal Church of Truth in their gigantic Templeship to stop their brutal journey of forcedly converting people to their faith. During the catastrophic ordeal, Warlock realized the fabric of space-time was fragilized due to so many aggressions, paving way to interlopers to invade the universe. One of these invaders came in the form of a mass of "Limbo Ice", which revealed a semi-amnesiac champion who identified himself as Major Vance Astro, of the Guardians of the Galaxy from a thousand years in the future. Astro's declaration inspired Rocket baptize their unnamed team as the Guardians of the Galaxy.; The Guardians then confronted the Cardinals of the Universal Church of Truth in another temple, while Astro was targeted aboard Knowhere by Starhawk. Matters worsened when Knowhere was revealed to have been infiltrated by shapeshifting Skrulls, inciting mistrust among the team and the Luminals as Knowhere was put under a lockdown. Simultaneously, Warlock worried about the team not being allowed to act independently within Knowhere and Drax went rogue after learning that Quill had directed Mantis to telepathically coerce the members of the Guardians of the Galaxy into joining his initiative without question. Using a synapse disruptor, Drax murdered every being in Knowhere for a limited amount of time in a process that revealed the Skrulls aboard. The situation escalated with another attack by another version of Starhawk. Although the Skrulls were shown to be pacifists and Starhawk got arrested, these events led to the public revelation that Quill had tampered with his teammates' minds, something that eroded the team.; With most of the members leaving the team, Rocket kept the Guardians of the Galaxy alive with Mantis, Astro and his former allies, the colossal Groot and the gallant warrior from Microverse Bug, to fight the Badoon in the Spartax Empire. Meanwhile, Quill became a prisoner of the brutal Blastaar in the Negative Zone after being banished by the Kree Accuser Ronan. Wishing to access Earth, Blastaar had Quill siege the abandoned superhuman prison known as 42, created by the Initiative to house anti-registration forces. Quill teamed up with the rebellion led by Jack Flag and contacted the Guardians for help. Flag directed him to a telepath who was able to contact Mantis and get the Guardians to teleport into the Negative Zone to help fend off Blastaar's attack. After rescuing Quill, the Guardians escaped the Negative Zone, keeping its access to the universe shuttered. Jack Flag stayed with the team for their next adventures.; ===War of Kings===; The former members of the Guardians went to their own quests apart from the Guardians. Warlock and Gamora tackled the Universal Church of the Truth, with Warlock planning to lead them as he had predicted another war would erupt between the Kree and the Shi'ar empires. Meanwhile, when looking for the human girl Cammi, Drax and Quasar learned their fate was intertwined with Moondragon, Drax's daughter and Quasar's lover who had been deceased since Ultron's conquest of the Kree empire. With Mentor's intervention, Drax and Quasar went to the realm of Oblivion, where Phyla-Vell missed her Quantum Bands who had empowered her as Quasar. In their confusion, they were ambushed by Maelstrom, who wielded the Quantum Bands. During the fight, the Dragon of the Moon consumed Phyla-Vell. As Drax continued to resist the Maelstrom, the original Quasar, Wendell Vaughn, came to his rescue. As Martyr, Phyla-Vell burst out of the Dragon's belly with a revived Moondragon. Martyr had secretly agreed to become the new avatar of Death in the belly of the beast in order to return Moondragon.; The Guardians of the Galaxy reunited as one operation to prepare for the war between the Shi'ar Emperor Vulcan, a mutant usurper, and the Inhuman Royal Family, ruled by King of the Kree Black Bolt. Warlock expected that their war would harm the fabric of the universe even further, prompting the Guardians of the Galaxy to try to prevent the imminent attacks. They split up to diplomatically discuss the consequences of the war with both sides. Rocket's team was attacked by Vulcan when sabotaging his aggressions, but were rescued and joined by the Starjammers. Together, the two teams overpowered the Shi'ar Imperial Guard and had its mighty Gladiator join their cause in order to depose Vulcan and restore the throne to Majestrix Lilandra.; In the Kree section, Quill's team failed at convincing the Inhumans to cease fire. Back to Knowhere, the Guardians were followed by the Imperial Guard and the Inhumans, since Warlock had been magically tagged by the guardswoman witch Magique and Martyr had taken the Inhuman princess Crystal hostage. The Inhumans left after rescuing Crystal, and the Guardians dealt with the Imperial Guard by themselves in Knowhere. Warlock secretly manifested his evil future self, the Magus, to help the Guardians of the Galaxy to drive the invaders out. Simultaneously, Moondragon was influenced to release Starhawk from her imprisonment, which allowed her to kidnap some Guardians and lead them to a journey across the timestream in another attempt to prevent the collapse of the fabric of existence.; As Majestrix Lilandra had been murdered, a direct attack against Vulcan was made necessary. The Inhumans launched a Terrigen Bomb to the Shi'ar Galaxy. Detonated by Black Bolt's sacrifice, the bomb caused Vulcan to perish and opened a dimensional rift in the universe which was named the Fault. In the future, the Guardians kidnapped by Starhawk met their counterparts from the 31st century and learned that the Fault had caused severe damage in the flux of the timestream. They emitted a message to Warlock to prevent the Fault from expanding. In the present, the remaining Guardians of the Galaxy joined forces with the Inhuman Royals to assess the Fault as Warlock used the Universal Church's faith engines to empower himself and stabilize the fissure. Warlock was successful in his spell but was immediately murdered by Martyr. In retaliation, Gamora killed Martyr, but was then disposed of by Warlock himself, who had ascended as the Magus.; In the future, the Guardians of the Galaxy learned about the Magus' ascension. With Kang the Conqueror's help, the Guardians were sent back in time to stop the Magus as he would force all the possibilities to converge. Wielding a Cosmic Cube gifted by Kang, Quill attempted to prevent the death of his teammates, but failed as several Guardians were murdered by the Magus. In the end, Quill shot Warlock dead, ending the threat of the Magus.; ===The Fault===; The surviving Guardians of the Galaxy researched the dimension locked beyond the Fault. The cancerous and infectious entities that lived in it attacked Moondragon after the Luminals explored the Fault in Knowhere. The vicious entities were also worshipped by the believers of the collapsed Universal Church of the Truth. By becoming a host of one of the monsters, Moondragon learned that they came from a parallel Cancerverse, a reality where death did not exist, and life was all-enduring. She was then kidnapped by the Universal Church's leader, the Matriarch. To successfully rescue Moondragon, Rocket navigated Knowhere itself with the Guardians and the Luminals aboard to her location. Finally safe and freed from the Cancerverse infection, Moondragon was able to realize her apparently dead teammates were alive. In fact, they were trapped by the Church's actual leader, the very much alive Magus.; The Magus had faked his death and kept the Guardians in the catacombs of one of the Church's temples in Sacrosanct as part of his plan to bring the Cancerverse into the universe. As the avatar of Death, Martyr managed to contact Moondragon and free her teammates. As the other Guardians dealt with diplomatic issues concerning the Galactic Council, Martyr was tricked by Maelstrom into releasing the Magus' archenemy from a restorative cocoon in the temple. Believing the adversary to be Warlock, she was shocked when he was revealed to be her predecessor as the avatar of Death, the Mad Titan Thanos. Back to life, Thanos murdered Martyr. The Guardians of the Galaxy gathered to fight him, with Quill defeating and arresting him using the last powers of the Cosmic Cube.; The Magus and the Universal Church intervened in the Fault, sacrificing their forces to allow the creatures from the Cancerverse to invade the universe. Being successful, the Magus was greeted and murdered by the undying Lord Mar-Vell, who wanted to destroy Death for good in the universe. The Guardians of the Galaxy, when evaluating Thanos' condition, learned about this invasion as Thanos broke free. Rocket stopped Thanos, calling a truce as Quill realized that bringing the deathbringer Thanos to the Cancerverse could be the only viable solution. Thanos guided the Guardians of the Galaxy to the Cancerverse while Nova and Quasar directed the Galactic Council's armada to stop Mar-Vell's Revengers. After destroying the Defenders in Cancerverse, Thanos and the Guardians were approached by the Vision, a member of the Machine Resistance, artificial beings who had not been corrupted by endless life and offered help in Titan.; Mar-Vell planned to perform a Necropsy ritual by assassinating Death's avatar just like he had done in his home reality. On the other hand, Thanos planned to reverse the ritual and restore Death in Mar-Vell's reality. However, Drax succumbed to his urges to destroy Thanos and ended up disintegrating the Mad Titan in the Cancerverse. Rejected by Death, Thanos was spontaneously resurrected and permanently killed Drax in retaliation. Drax' demise led Mar-Vell to locate the Guardians in Titan. Thanks to the defective Revenger Scarlet Witch, the Guardians of the Galaxy were able to invade Mar-Vell's base in Sanctuary. Meanwhile, Nova abandoned the Galactic Council's fight to join Quill and the Guardians and stop the source of Mar-Vell's attack. In a direct confrontation against Mar-Vell and the Revengers, Thanos asked to be mercy-killed, which allowed Death to access Mar-Vell and end him saving the universe from his endless life. Meanwhile, Nova rescued the Guardians, who were transported away from the terminal universe. Using Kang's Cosmic Cube, Peter Quill and Nova stayed in the Cancerverse to trap Thanos behind. Following their sacrifice, the Guardians of the Galaxy discontinued their operations. To keep their legacy alive, Quasar and Cosmo formed a group of mighty protectors with ties to the Galactic Council, the Annihilators.; In the Cancerverse, Quill and Nova struggled to combat Thanos, being joined by a revived Drax. The Revengers interrupted the fight, being able to acquire the Cosmic Cube, which was subsequently usurped by Thanos. In the end, Nova sacrificed himself by using the power of the Cosmic Cube to transport Quill, Drax and Thanos back to the regular universe. Learning that his father, Emperor J'son of Spartax and a member of the Galactic Council, had interests on Earth, Quill decided to reassemble the Guardians of the Galaxy to keep watch over his home planet.; ===Cosmic Avengers===; In his quest for death, Thanos and his Zodiac had managed to acquire cosmic weapons from the U.S. Army on Earth. The Mad Titan met opposition in Earth's Mightiest Heroes, the Avengers and retreated. After learning that Thanos had distracted them from Earth by staging a Badoon invasion, the Guardians of the Galaxy traveled to the Avengers Tower to assist the Avengers. Together, the two teams discovered Thanos was in possession of a Cosmic Cube replica and space-traveled to stop him. In Moord, the homeland of the Badoon, Thanos carried on his plans of obliterating Earth. As the Avengers and the Guardians made way through the Badoon army in Moord, Thanos ascended to godhood using the Cube. Thanos sent the heroes to the Cancerverse, where Iron Man discovered that the Cosmic Cube had defects for being a copy. With Thanos' weapon being rendered useless by the heroes, he was taken into custody by the Elders of the Universe. The Guardians of the Galaxy returned to space, inviting Iron Man to join them. Moreover, following the ordeal, the Badoon considered Earth a threat to be terminated.; King J'son alerted Quill that the Galactic Council had decided that Earth was a neutral zone where no alien civilization should act on, including the Guardians of the Galaxy. Quill expected that the decree would only aggravate animosities and instantly ventured to Earth with the Guardians to make sure it was safe. As expected, they discovered a Badoon warship heading to attack Earth. After successfully defeating the Badoon, the Guardians were arrested by the galactic police as a result of the machinations of J'son of Spartax. Although taken to a prison ship and locked in containment cells, the Guardians were ultimately freed by their companion Groot who had not been restrained. Reacquiring their arsenal, which had been confiscated, the Guardians of the Galaxy took the Spartax battleship for themselves and celebrated their victory. During the party, a bounty hunter attempted to assault Gamora but was stopped.; Treated as fugitive criminals and continuing to guard Earth, the Guardians of the Galaxy focused on the collapse of the space-time continuum. After consulting Mantis, Quill secretly approached Thanos for further explanations, learning that Earth was in fact the source of the disaster. Meanwhile, the Guardians intercepted an interdimensional interloper on the Moon. The deadly warrior known as Angela was revealed to had been lost in space as a result of the crisis Quill worried about. After difficultly knocking Angela out, the Guardians found out she was not a threat and escorted her to Earth, gaining a precious ally.; Thanos directed his lieutenants to an unprotected Earth in order to search for the Infinity Stones and murder his son Thane. With no Avengers on the planet, S.W.O.R.D. agents failed to resist the nightmarish armada and were captured in their station, the Peak. Director Abigail Brand contacted the Guardians for help. They rescued her but were countered by Thanos' agents. Angela helped her allies to combat their enemies. The Guardians' intervention allowed the Avenger Captain Marvel to fly the Avengers back to Earth after fighting a war in space against the Builders and secretly stop Thanos. The Guardians searched for Thanos in Moord with no success as they did not know he was kept on Earth, but managed to liberate slaves from the Badoon.; When Rocket gathered intel about the Shi'ar Empire's decision to arrest the young Jean Grey of the time-displaced X-Men from the past to put her on trial for her future crimes as the Dark Phoenix, the Guardians of the Galaxy decided to intervene. Following a Shi'ar ship to Earth, they were too late and unable to prevent the kidnapping. Together with the X-Men under Kitty Pryde's supervision, the Guardians of the Galaxy tracked Jean Grey. While on the trail, their ship was attacked by the Shi'ar, but they were joined by the Starjammers. The Guardians, the X-Men and the Starjammers managed to arrive to the Chandilar, where they confronted the Imperial Guard. After escaping captivity, Jean Grey beat Majestor Gladiator and refused to be at the Shi'ar's mercy in a display of force. The Guardians of the Galaxy and the Starjammers accompanied the X-Men back to Earth, consolidating a friendship between the members of the uncannily different groups.; ===Emperor Quill===; Iron Man appointed Agent Venom to join the Guardians of the Galaxy as Earth's liaison for the Avengers. Shortly after, J'Son directed his fleet against Quill and had the Guardians separately deal with different enemies, effectively disbanding the team as part of his manipulations. Rocket was tested in Kree torture laboratories, Gamora struggled in the Badoon fight arenas, Groot was left to die in Rigel 8 by brutal the Brood, Drax stood trial by the Shi'ar and Venom was violated by Skrulls. However, the Guardians' ally Captain Marvel was not accounted for and saved Peter Quill from his father and the Spartax Empire. Before departing, Quill damaged his father's reputation by publicly exposing his nature as a heartless and corrupt king to Spartax. Quill and Captain Marvel gathered the rest of the Guardians, who had thrived in their challenging situations. Venom was an exception, as he had gone missing after evading the Skrulls. Venom caused troubled in Knowhere as his parasitic symbiote acted erratically and brutalized civilians. The Guardians intercepted him by chance, separating him from his symbiote. The symbiote was not properly contained and infected some of the Guardians in their ship, causing mayhem. As the Guardians fought the Venom symbiote, they were taken to planet Klyntar, the home of symbiotes, where Agent Venom recovered his control over his sanity.; Traveling back to Earth, the Guardians were chased and by Chitauri troops captained by Nebula. As their ship crashed after being attacked, they were greeted by the Avengers, who joined them in fighting the Chitauri. Nebula incapacitated both groups using a genetic disrupter and was revealed to have been hired by the planet ruler Kindun to kidnap Gamora as part of a revenge plan he had for Thanos due to past aggressions. The Guardians and the Avengers rescued Gamora and escaped Kindun.; Around this period, the Spartax Council decided to coronate a new Emperor as J'son had been dethroned. Peter Quill was nominated based on his opposition to his father and his activities to benefit he galaxy. Although the legendary Star-Lord himself had no idea he had been nominated, his candidacy was extremely popular in Spartax and he was elected as their leader in absentia. During the rise of his unexpected political career, Quill kept a low profile, but was hunted down by the Slaughter Squad. The mercenaries acted on the orders of his father, who had adopted the identity of the crime-lord Mister Knife and wished to acquire the Black Vortex, an item that cosmically unleashed the cosmic potential of those who communed with it. Quill evaded his opponents alongside his long-distance girlfriend Kitty Pryde.; Fearing of such powerful item as the Black Vortex being in Mister Knife's hand, Quill and Pryde stole the artifact and turned to the Guardians of the Galaxy and the X-Men for help. The cosmically empowered Slaughter Squad, now the Slaughter Lords, outmatched the heroes to retrieve the Black Vortex. During the battle, Gamora submitted to the Black Vortex's power, giving the Guardians and the X-Men the necessary edge to escape to Spartax's moon, where Quill tried to convince his allies to get boosted by the Black Vortex. Pryde contested by claiming that its powers could be corruptive. The X-Men Beast and Angel submitted and were subverted by the immense power alongside Gamora. Betraying their allies, they escaped with the Vortex.; While Gamora, Beast and Angel assaulted Hala in retaliation for Kree Accusers stealing the Black Vortex, the Guardians of the Galaxy and the X-Men were attacked by Mister Knife's flying fortress, but managed to flee on Quill's Bad Boy. Subsequently coming across the Starjammers and having them joined to their mission, the heroes split up to protect Hala. Ronan the Accuser empowered himself with the Black Vortex and fended off the attackers, but Mister Knife arrived to recover the Vortex, employing the entire firepower of his flying fortress to utterly destroy Hala. The Guardians of the Galaxy and X-Men were able to escape the total obliteration of the capital of the Kree Empire.; As Mister Knife finally recovered the Vortex, he used it on his ally Thane, who proceeded to encase the entirety of Spartax in an amber construct, trapping its inhabitants in a state of living death. Mister Knife had made a deal with the Brood, providing them with the host bodies necessary to reproduce, in exchange of having them as allies in his planetary conquest. When the heroes retrieved the Black Vortex once again, Kitty Pryde enhanced her abilities and phased Spartax through the amber carcass, saving the planet and its inhabitants. Once the dust settled and the Black Vortex was dealt with, Quill proposed to Pryde.; With J'son finally out of the picture, President Quill could not escape his obligations to planet Spartax. The Guardians accompanied Quill to assist him in his role as the ruler of Spartax. Kindun tracked Gamora to Spartax and threatened to ravage the world with his Chitauri army. In a display of force, Gamora convinced Kindun to leave her and her allies in peace as she should not be blamed for her father Thanos' actions. He complied, but the cosmically enhanced Gamora decided to leave the Guardians as a way not to put them at peril again.; Her cosmic senses allowed her to see through the illusion crafted by Emperor Doom following the destruction of the Multiverse. In a reshaped world, with nothing else but one planet, the Guardians had no galaxy to protect and operated in Knowhere as rebels to Doom's rule. Knowhere was seized by Yotat the Destroyer, who also sought revenge on Drax for intervening in a past ordeal involving Rocket and the mob boss Giogo. Being helped by Doom's agent from the Thors Angela and the Nova Corps, the Guardians defeated Yotat, but the blasphemous Gamora was violently interrogated by Angela. They were interrupted by a surviving Kree Accuser who was difficultly subdued by the Guardians. The partially amnesiac group was then greeted by Quill, who had survived the death of the multiverse and enlisted his teammates in the final war against Doom, to restore the previous existence.; As reality brought back, the Guardians eventually left Quill behind with the crown of Spartax. Kitty Pryde succeed him as "Star-Lord," while Rocket became the sole leader of the team. Additionally, the group counted with the Thing of the defunct Fantastic Four among their ranks. When introducing the Thing to Knowhere, the Guardians confronted Yotat as he attempted to control the station, cementing a rivalry between him and Drax. Yotat was arrested by the Knowhere Corps, mainly formed by former Guardians of the Galaxy who policed Knowhere.; In one of their adventures, the Guardians stole an artifact from the Chitauri and reencountered Quill in Spartax to examine it. The last Kree Accuser, having taken the name Hala after her destroyed homeworld, attacked Spartax in a crusade against Peter Quill for his participation in the destruction of the crown jewel of the Kree Empire. Gamora spent all of her cosmic powers to prevent the attack, but failed. Hala brutalized the Spartax army to punish the Guardians. Meanwhile, Annihilus and the Brood Queen incited a vengeful Yotat to take advantage of the Guardians being fragilized. Alongside Quill, the Guardians defeated Hala, but were astonished by Yotat., Quill rejoined the Guardians when Spartax delegates ousted Quill from power due to the damage caused by the battle. Annihilus and the Brood Queen were successful in destabilizing Spartax politics and in making Guardians of the Galaxy wanted once again.; ===Grounded===; As fugitives, the Guardians of the Galaxy opposed the Badoon as per Gamora's suggestion, in an effort to end their endless slavery by liberating a prison planet where Angela had been kept. To accomplish their mission, the group split up. This caused Quill to be arrested and placed in their gladiator arena in Moord. Gamora, after being restrained, was able to use her last remaining fraction of the Black Vortex power-up to defeat the warden of the prison planet and free Angela. Reunited, the Guardians of the Galaxy destroyed the Brotherhood of the Badoon and brought freedom to uncountable souls.; Following the end of the dreadful Badoon Empire, the Guardians traveled to Earth at the request of Captain Marvel in order to join her side in a superhuman civil war, concerning the use of predictive knowledge to proactively arrest criminals before they could commit crimes. Fighting on her behalf, the Guardians found themselves against the forces that opposed her led by their former teammate Iron Man. During the ensuing battle, the Guardians' ship was destroyed, leaving them stranded on Earth.; To make matters worse, Thanos was imprisoned on Earth after igniting the war. Captain Marvel decided to share that information solely with Quill, keeping it from Gamora and Drax. When Gamora found out about Thanos being kept in the Triskelion, she went rogue, cutting ties with Captain Marvel and Quill. Although Quill decided to come clean and share the situation with the rest of his teammates, the damage had been done, and both Rocket and Drax decided to walk away. The Thing left the team to act as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and investigate Doctor Doom. Pryde also left, accepting the position of the leader of the X-Men.; Gamora was tracked and arrested by Captain Marvel's forces, namely Alpha Flight and the Ultimates. Influenced and assisted by Annihilus, the Brood Queen and the Badoon, Thanos unleashed his deadly rage upon Earth. The Guardians of the Galaxy on Earth, past and present, gathered to stop the Mad Titan's invasion. Gamora freed herself to guide the final blow, and Thanos was ultimately defeated and arrested by the recently reinstated Nova Corps. Rocket built the Guardians a makeshift ship with scraps from the Chaparanga beach and the Guardians of the Galaxy left Earth to the stars.; <!--; ...; ...; ...; ...; ...-->; ===Infinity Quest===; During ensuing adventures, members of the Guardians of the Galaxy suffered great changes. Drax gave up on violence after his brutish recklessness caused the death of innocent slaves he had intended to save. Groot was attacked by the Gardener, who had been maddened by Loki the God of Mischief and used Groot's body to build an army of twisted tree-like creatures which prevented Groot from regrowing his entire body and got him stuck in a small size. Gamora was haunted in her nightmares by a fraction of her soul that had been lost for years in the disturbed Soulworld inside the Soul Stone and decided to reacquire the Infinity Stone. Quill had the group perform one last mission together before they could walk their own path.; The Guardians' activities as outlaws made them clash with the law-enforcing Nova Corps. During their last mission, a task the Guardians took on Grandmaster's behalf, they stole a ship from the Nova Corps previously owned by the Fraternity of Raptors and renamed it as the Milano. As part of a heist, the Guardians collected a miniature universe from Citopia for the Grandmaster. The Grandmaster then sent the Guardians to steal the Hujahdarian Monarch Egg from the Collector's collection in exchange for fortune and secrets. When infiltrating the Collector's castle, they were captured. The Guardians of the Galaxy managed to break free as Gamora made a threatening deal with the Collector to trick the Grandmaster, as part of her journey to possess the Soul Stone.; As the Guardians marched back to the Grandmaster, the Raptors attacked Milano, an opportunity their leader Talonar took to retrieve the Nega-Bands that belonged to the Kree hero Mar-Vell. Rocket managed to keep one of the bands but was poisoned during the fight for it. Quill traded the band for an antidote and managed to banish Talonar to a remote part of the galaxy. Finally meeting the Grandmaster, the Guardians of the Galaxy found themselves caught up in the brotherly war between the two Elders of the Universe, which unexpectedly ended up with a truce. The Grandmaster and the Collector determined the events behind the missing Infinity Stones and the missing Elders of the Universe were not a coincidence and could help them uncover secret machinations. As part of their investigations on the whereabouts of the Infinity Stones, the Guardians visited Earth. Milano was infiltrated by the size-altering hero Ant-Man who asked to join the Guardians as a way to abandon Earth following him being blackmailed by the fallen Hydra Empire.; The Guardians were enlisted to the corrupted Nova Corps by Commander Adsit as the Raptors represented a common enemy. Relocated to the the Rock, the Guardians of the Galaxy joined the Nova Corps and searched for infiltrators within it. Moreover, it was revealed that Thanos had escaped the Corps' custody. In the Rock, Quill learned his friend Nova, who had seemingly perished in the Cancerverse, was alive. They met up and look for rogue spies in a resisting post led by Nova Eve Bakian in planet Xitaung, where the Power Stone was found. Gamora and Ant-Man learned that Ultron had infected uncountable souls with the Ultron Virus in the galaxy, transforming them into cyborg slaves, and managed to rescue some refuges. At the same time, Drax discovered that Novas ordered by the Fraternity of Raptors had bargained for Thanos' freedom in order to damage the Nova Corps' reputation. This led the Nova Corps to start getting partially rid of its enemies within.; Rocket ultimately argued that the exemplary Novas should be treated as traitors, while the crooked ones should compose his striking force against the Raptors. Meanwhile, the Gardener's arboreal army attack Knowhere, prompting Cosmo to summon the Guardians of the Galaxy. As the Guardians eliminated the soldiers, Groot was empowered and grew larger. The Guardians of the Galaxy went to Telferina to fight the Gardener, when Drax left the group and was asked by Quill to guard Bakian's fort and the Power Stone. Subjugated by Thanos, the Chitauri had a dissident faction led by the Warbringer to acquire the Power Stone and liberate his people from the Mad Titan. Drax protected the Stone and the Novas from both Talonar and the Warbringer. In Telferina, the Guardians broke the Gardener free, restoring Groot to his full power and faculties.; In Xitaung, the Guardians joined Drax With the retreat of the Raptors after Nova learned Talonar was his brainwashed brother, the Guardians were able to use the Power Stone to fend off the Chitauri, an ordeal where Ant-Man was declared missing in action. Back to Knowhere, Quill was gifted the Reality Stone by the Grandmaster and the Collector. He was interrupted by versions of Phyla-Vell and Moondragon from a more heroic alternate Earth who claimed the Stone for their own as it came from their universe.; ===Requiem===; In Oblitus, the Guardians were approached by Warlock, who had been resurrected by Kang the Conqueror. While Kang wished for the Time Stone, Warlock was in possession of the Soul Stone, which he had collected from Ultron. Gamora attempted to force Warlock to hand over the Soul Stone, and a fight broke out. During the battle, Drax managed to hold it and was exposed to the corruption of Soulworld, striking Gamora to prevent her from opening the gem and departing with Warlock and Kang. In addition to Drax's betrayal, the other Guardians refused to follow Gamora into pursuing Kang. Outraged by her teammates' behavior, Gamora also left them to obtain the Soul Stone on her own. Following this turn of events, Doctor Strange assembled the possessors of the Infinity Stones in a new formation of the Infinity Watch. As the wielder of the Power Stone, Star-Lord joined them alongside Rocket and Groot after declaring that the Guardians of the Galaxy were no more.; Doctor Strange feared for Thanos assembling the Infinity Gauntlet once again. Unknown to him and the Watch, Thanos and his Chitauri had been offed by the mysterious Requiem. Requiem interrupted the meeting before any arrangements could have been set up and revealed her true identity as Gamora just before murdering Quill with the Power Stone for attempting to prevent her from acquiring the other Infinity Stones. Using the Time Stone, Strange reversed the murder as Requiem violently unleashed her power upon her teammates, overpowering both the Guardians and the Avengers. In possession of all the gems, Requiem reunited herself with the missing part of her soul within the Soul Stone.; Requiem was greeted by Loki, who had been scheming against the Guardians for months to get the Stones as well, and the librarian Flowa. Using the Stones and having Loki and Flowa by her side, the tormented Requiem folded the universe in half, merging souls together and creating a Warp World in an attempt to tackle the soul eater that had corrupted the Soulword, Devondra. To combat Requiem and Devondra, Loki assembled a team to look for the Warp World's Infinity Stones and Warlock. Joining the alternate Phyla-Vell and Moondragon, Loki's team escaped Warp World and battled Requiem, delivering her powerless and defeated to Warlock. The Guardians of the Galaxy Drax, Quill, Groot and Rocket reassembled in the Warp World, helping Loki and his team to stop Devondra. Warlock restored the stolen souls back to the regular universe, stopping Requiem's mad plan. Drax and his human soul, Arthur Douglas, had to stay in the Warp World to save both universes, while Phyla-Vell and Moondragon became interlopers from a divergent world. In the end, Warlock scattered the Infinity Stones and sent Gamora away to guide a revived Magus.; ===Final Gauntlet===; Eros assembled all super heroes in the galaxy to discuss the upcoming return of Thanos in another person's body. In a trap devised by the Goddess of Death Hela and Thanos' Black Order, who had seized Knowhere, the cosmic agents in the gathering were dragged into a black hole. With the Guardians' effective end, a taciturn Quill and a tough Groot aimlessly wandered space in the Ryder without Rocket. They were drafted to Thanos' former ship the Sanctuary when investigating Knowhere's disappearance alongside the Nova Corps. Upon arriving at the location of the reading, they discovered the hammer Stormbreaker pulling out the only survivors of the Black Order's attack, namely Beta Ray Bill the alternate reality versions of Phyla-Vell and Moondragon, and the deranged Rider. Quill refused to hand the rescued victims over to the Nova Corps upon demand, declaring that they were his new crew.; The Rider left the team when Quill refused to attack Gamora as a potential host for Thanos. Instead, her joined Eros' Guardians of the Galaxy, a dark operation aimed at eliminating Gamora, initially by targetting Nova. Tired of waiting for Quill to snap out of his apathetic state, Groot took up leadership of the Guardians and piloted the Ryder to Halfworld, where Gamora had gone after Rocket, so the Guardians could protect her. After a brief confrontation, Groot convinced Gamora to come with the Guardians, who later encountered a beaten Nova. Eros' Guardians had followed him knowing that he would lead them to Gamora. A fight ensued between the two formations of the Guardians of the Galaxy, leading the Ryder to be damaged and Quill to get badly hurt. Although he survived, Eros' team had been able to catch Gamora. With the help of Lockjaw, the Guardians went after her, where they discovered that Hela would make the resurrection of Thanos viable through Eros. The two groups of Guardians of the Galaxy joined forces to end the Mad Titan, the Goddess of Death and the Black Order in Knowhere. Gamora finished Eros, ruining the revival of Thanos.; The Guardians were contacted by J'son, who informed them the Nova Corps had been obliterated by the Universal Church of the Truth. When approaching the Church's mobile cathedral, the Guardians, except for Groot and Moondragon, were kidnapped by J'son, who revealed himself as the new Patriarch. The free Guardians recruited a degenerating Rocket to rescue their teammates. Quill learned the Universal Church had custody over the missing cosmic heroes and planned to terminate Earth to revive their messiah. Instead of the Magus, the Patriarch revived a horde of Destroyers or, more specifically, clones of Drax. Meanwhile, Rocket and the free Guardians enlisted the Magus for help. As the Guardians reunited, the Magus tormented J'son. However, the Guardians were attacked by several heroes under the Church's mind control and defeated, which got Earth endangered. Rocket managed to sabotage the temple's devices that guaranteed the brainwashing, while Moondragon projected the Guardians' memories about Drax into one of his clones. The Guardians were able to fend the Patriarch off and prevent him from killing Death, which allowed them to watch Rocket recover from his illness.; ===Divided Guardians===; Exposing the murderous actions of the blood-thirsty world-ravager Olympians, Nova interrupted the Guardians of the Galaxy's vacation in Halfworld to seek their aid. Although Gamora, Drax and Groot refused out of concern for the safety of the team, Quill, Rocket, and the alternate Phyla-Vell and Moondragon gladly assisted Nova behind their back. Joined by the eccentric Marvel Boy, the makeshift team embarked on a mission to destroy New Olympus. In the process of completing the operation, the Guardians liberated the captive Olympian Hercules. Meanwhile, Quill had to manually detonate a black hole bomb to complete the mission. By sending the Olympians outside reality when hijacking New Olympus' dimensional rotor, Quill was left for dead.; The Guardians of the Galaxy were devastated by Quill's demise, causing the team to split, with Gamora, Groot, Drax and the original Moondragon forming their own mercenary Guardians of the Galaxy. The two teams quickly found themselves in opposite sides of a mission involving the planet-endangering resource mining operation of unscrupulous businessman and Rocket's enemy Castor Gnawbarque, with Gamora's team being hired by him and joined by the novice hero Prince of Power and the Halfworlder Blackjack O'Hare to take down their former allies. The clash ended in a truce during which the two Moondragons merged into a single being and Gnawbarque got killed.; With the galactic landscape suffering several changes, the Guardians of the Galaxy got involved in its politics as Marvel Boy and Nova participated in reunions for the Galactic Council. During a diplomatic conference, Emperor Stote of the Zn'rx and a Kree/Skrull Alliance operative were assassinated, with Marvel Boy being framed for the killing. Rocket led an investigation alongside the Guardians and learned the Profiteer was behind the actions in order to destabilize the Galaxy by starting a Snarkwar and profit with weapons sales.; The crisis was interrupted by news of Knull ravaging the universe with his symbiotes. The Guardians of the Galaxy defended Spartax from the rampage, where they were reunited with Quill, the legendarily alive Star-Lord. He had lived, unageing, in the other-dimensional world of Morinus for over a hundred years and had mastered his will until the dark Olympians found him and prompted him to return to his native reality to lure them away from his new home. The Guardians came together to stand their ground in Daedalus 5 to oppose the vengeful gods. In the aftermath of the team's victory, the Galactic Council decided to sanction the reformed Guardians of the Galaxy as protectors of the cosmos led by Nova in light of the increasing uncertainty of the galactic landscape, providing them with headquarters in the space station Proscenium.; Their operation expanded as never before and they welcomed new operatives to their ranks, such as Kl'rt the Super Skrull and the Quasars, Wendell Vaughn and his partner who shared existence with him, Avril Kincaid. As per the Kree/Skrull Alliance's request, the Guardians responded to the Progenitors attacking the ruins of Hala and a group of heretic Skrull fire cultists on the mysteriously new "Rimworld". Alongside Emperor Hulkling and his consort Wiccan, the Guardians fended off the Progenitors, but were surprised by Doctor Doom. When fighting Doom, who had transferred his mind to Hulkling, the Guardians managed to trap him inside Rocket's body using Moondragon's telepathy. Meanwhile, the other Guardians on the "Rimworld" realized the fire cultists had set base on was Ego the Living Planet. The emerging crisis led the Guardians of the Galaxy to welcome Doctor Doom to their ranks in order to combat the threat. Soon, the Guardians came to know the nature of the ensuing threat as Ego was possessed by the Faltine lord Dormammu, the dread lord of the Dark Dimension.; With the help of the Kree/Skrull Alliance, the Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda and S.W.O.R.D., the Guardians fended off Dormammu's dark and endless wave of Mindless Ones in their attempts to conquer five different planets to use them as the points of a galaxy-sized pentagram to summon the entirety of the Dark Dimension. Dormammu was ultimately defeated after a portion of Guardians helped Doctor Doom carry out a ritual to siphon the demon's powers into himself, giving the rest of the Guardians the opportunity to use the Retaliator Mark II to fire a giant bullet of Mysterium, an anti-magic metal, infused the Nova Force and Star-Lord's sun powers. The attack killed Ego and banished Dormammu to the Dark Dimension. Doctor Doom left without the Guardians learning he had planned Dormammu's annihilating invasion in order to have access to his powers. In the aftermath of the war, the Guardians of the Galaxy finally had the chance to enjoy a vacation together.; ===Grootfall===; For some time, the Guardians of the Galaxy inspirationally saved countless worlds effectively. Their competence caught the attention of Nebula, whose cyborg mind housed a Probability Engine she wished to put to good use. Her computations predicted a great threat to galactic peace deep in a planet. Rocket and Groot volunteered to investigate. There, they found the Granopy an ancestor to Groot, who triggered a transformation in him. Having devolved into Grootfall, Groot became an all-consuming asteroid cluster. His first destination was the Proscenium. Gamora deployed the entire might of the Guardians of the Galaxy to stop the threat, resulting in the demise of many of its operatives. In a desperate attempt, Quill sent the Proscenium itself against Grootfall, which caused its obliteration. The only survivors, Quill, Nebula, Gamora, Mantis, Drax, and Rocket escaped. The group, except for Rocket, who built a haven-planet for survivors, went from planet to planet to save their inhabitants from being assimilated by Grootfall.

+History:
+===Origin===; How the Guardians came together reflect similar events to their Earth-199999 counterparts, via saving the galaxy from Ronan the Accuser who was perished as a result.; The Guardians of the Galaxy are a group of intergalactic heroes bent on protecting the universe from various cosmic threats. The team consists of Starlord, half-earthling, half-alien royalty armed with his amazing Element Gun; Drax, a great fighter who is also a loose cannon; Gamora, the most dangerous woman in the universe and skilled in the use of every weapon; Rocket Raccoon; a master strategist with a laser gun and rocket pack (but isn't really a raccoon); and Groot, a huge sentient alien plant. Nova worked with the team when he first received his powers, but left to return to Earth.; ===Meeting The Avengers===; After defeating Thanos on Earth, the Guardians locate his Sanctuary at the New Avengers Facility which has been previously shrunken. Believing it to be too dangerous in the hands of Humans, they attempt brake in and steal it which led them into a fight with the Avengers, they soon made peace when they Avengers realize they're acquainted with Thor.; The two groups then face against the High Evolutionary who kidnapped members of both teams to absorb their powers and plans obtaining the remains of Thanos Sanctuary, using it to absorbing the life force from the planet. Star-Lord defies a plan where one group distracts the High Evolutionary while the other goes on board his ship to destroy the Sanctuary remains, within it they find a sarcophagus. They defeat the High Evolutionary taken away the powers he absorbed and seemingly "vaporized" him using the energy from sarcophagus, the same energy caused the whole ship to disappear. Before the Guardians leave Earth, they hand the Avengers the Cosmic Seed to give back to Thor. Unknown to everyone, Rocket had secretly hidden the sarcophagus in his Pocket Dimension Storage Vial.; ===Meeting Nova===; While locating the Centurion Nova Helmet, they find it in the possession Sam Alexander due to it previously belonging to his father and refuses to give it up.

It's unrevealed what became of Gamora afterward, but Groot and many of the other Respawned moved into Limbo so they could launch attacks on the Multiverse, but the hive mind inside the corpse of Galactus was destroyed, leading to the likely death of Groot and Gamora.

+Trivia: The Guardians of the Galaxy shares similarities to DC Comics' Legion of Super-Heroes as both group are a massive, galaxy-spanning organization from the far-future. Even some of its members are from the Imperial Guard, who are also deliberate analogs of the Legion. The Guardians' depiction is also a callback to writer Jim Valentino and Tom DeFalco's [https://web.archive.org/web/20110122050838/http://www.imagecomics.com/messageboard/viewtopic.php?t=144 original proposal] for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 1 that depict the Guardians as a galactic organization from the 35th century who are similar to the Legion.
+History:
+The Guardians of the Galaxy were an intergalactic law enforcement organization in the 61st century, descended from the Heroic Age of Earth in the 21st century. Consisting of approximately 250,000 members who patrolled the entire cosmos, veteran Guardians included Starhawk, Yondu Udonta, Charlie-27, Nikki Gold, and Martinex T'Naga. Their most powerful members were Captain Universe, Starbrand, Molecule Boy, Giraud the Phoenix, and Infinity Gauntlet wielder Gary.; When their present began to unravel due to the temporal machinations of the Maker of Earth-1610 in the 21st century, many of the Guardians aided the spacefaring civilizations of their time in an attempt to survive the rewriting of reality by piloting a Century-Ship containing the entirety of the time period and escaping into the informational space between universes, the Superflow. However, when confronted by Kang, a time conqueror, and his super-soldier army of clones, the Guardians split into an assault force and those powerful enough to attempt to maintain the cohesion of reality for long enough, but in vain.; Captain Marvel, pilot of the Century-Ship, attempted to return to her rewritten time period but crashed, ending centillion lives and hurling several Guardians, including herself, across the timestream at the speed of light. She herself landed in the Stone Age, built a ship called the Apokatastasis from fragments of 61st Century debris, and reconnected across time with some of her fellow Guardians, Star-Lord, Ultimate Nullifier, and Cosmo Starstalker. Another Guardian, America Chavez, would break through the Maker's time barrier and land in a much-altered 21st century without a Heroic Age, where she was found by the ultra-capitalist Midas and used as an energy source under the White House until she was rescued by the freedom fighter organization The Ultimates.

+History:
+===Formation===; The first iteration of the Guardians of the Galaxy were a group of interstellar outlaws and mercenaries brought together by chance during a scuffle for the destructive Power Stone, which later evolved into a battle to keep it out of the hands of the Kree fanatic Ronan the Accuser, who planned to use it to destroy the planet Xandar. The initial group consisted of Star-Lord, Rocket, Groot, Gamora, and Drax the Destroyer, and while they initially didn't get along, they quickly grew to become a tightly-knit group of friends over the course of their first mission.; Despite trying to keep the Stone out of Ronan's hands, he eventually acquired it, and the Guardians were forced to team up with Star-Lord's old mercenary teammates, the Ravagers, as well as the Nova Corps, to help stop him. They fought long and hard to stop his ship from reaching Xandar's ground, with Groot being lost in the process, and eventually resulting in a battle on the planet's surface that resulted in the Guardians grabbing the Power Stone and using it to disintegrate Ronan before encasing it in a protective orb and giving it to the Nova Corps for safe-keeping.; Taking a twig from Groot's body and planting it, the team grew themselves a new Groot and officially declared themselves a team, under Star-Lord's lead, using his ship, the Milano, as their base of operations for several months as they traveled around the galaxy, acting as heroes for hire.; ===Golden Opportunity===; Following their departure from Xandar, the Guardians set themselves up as mercenaries, willing to undertake exceptionally risky tasks for payment. One of these assignments saw them asked by Ayesha, high priestess of the Sovereign race, to defend the Sovereign's precious anulax batteries from a multi-dimensional abilisk, offering them the recently-captured Nebula in exchange once the monster was destroyed.; The fight against the abilisk was a rough encounter for the group, but their triumph over it saw the Sovereign gladly handing over the prisoner, and had it not been for Rocket's theft of some of the batteries, the Guardians of the Galaxy could have called the mission a complete success. Instead they found themselves under attack by a vast fleet of Omnicraft intent on their destruction. The Milano sustained heavy damage in the ensuing fight, and it seemed that the crew were doomed, but then all parties were taken completely by surprise by the sudden arrival of a mysterious alien ship that destroyed every last drone of the Sovereign fleet.; ===Divided===; The crew of the Milano crash landed on Berhert where they set about conducting repairs, and were approached again by the mysterious ship. This pilot of the ship came and introduced himself as Ego, Peter's biological father, and with him he brought an associate, Mantis. Despite Peter's initial skepticism at Ego's story, Gamora convinced him to give his father a chance, and she and Drax accompanied Peter back to Ego's home planet, while Rocket and Groot remained behind to repair the ship and guard Nebula. Upon arriving, Ego revealed that the human form they had witnessed was actually just an avatar he created for himself, and his true physical form was the planet itself.; Back on Berhert, Rocket set about laying a defensive perimeter around the wreckage of the Milano. He didn't have long to wait before the Ravagers arrived on the world and immediately set about incapacitating large swathes of Yondu's men with an array of exotic traps. Eventually Yondu entered the fray and cornered Rocket with his yaka arrow, but the tables were turned again when a disloyal Ravager known as Taserface staged a mutiny. Rocket and Groot were imprisoned along with Yondu and any other Ravager deemed loyal to Yondu, while Nebula was free and set to make her way offworld with the mutineers.; After being taken to the Eclector, Rocket and Yondu were made to watch as Taserface systematically had any Ravager still loyal to Yondu pushed out an airlock into space, and Groot suffered repeated indignities as he was initially treated like a caged animal and then stuffed into a small Ravager outfit to become their new mascot. Yondu and Rocket were soon thrown in the brig where they began to plot an escape, but Groot's integral part of their plan became an obstacle when he consistently failed to comprehend what he was being asked to do. In the end it was one of the mutineers, Kraglin Obfonteri, who gave them the tools to escape, the Ravager having become disillusioned with the new regime after watching many of his friends being executed. Together with Obfonteri and Groot in tow, Rocket and Yondu set about decimating the ranks of the mutineers before turning their attention back to the others on the world of Ego, who they now knew were in mortal danger.; On Ego, Peter Quill had been learning of his heritage and beginning to master a power bestowed upon him through the connection to his father. While Peter was busy, Drax used his time to foster a friendship with Mantis, and Gamora began roaming the small planet as she grappled with a growing unease about the situation at had. After a time she had an altercation with Nebula, who had tracked her to Ego, and this drove her towards a discovery that Ego was not the caring father that he seemed, but rather a ruthless killer with a far more sinister motive. The truth was made clear when she rejoined Drax and pressed Mantis for information. The entire galaxy was now under threat and there was scant little any of them could do about it.; ===Facing Ego===; The approach of the Eclector and re-establishment of communications between the Guardians of the Galaxy came as a welcome relief to the group. Together they implemented a hastily formed plan, first with Peter breaking free of Ego's control when Ego mentioned how he had been responsible for Peter's mother's death, and then moving to confront the threat that Ego represented to the entire galaxy. Their ultimate goal was to reach the core of the planet and destroy Ego's brain. In order to do this, Peter, Drax, and Gamora, started making their way down joined by Nebula and Mantis. Rocket assembled a bomb made using the anulax batteries he'd stolen, and went with Yondu and Groot in a laser drill mining ship, while Kraglin remained aboard the Eclector to provide their means of escape.; The fight against Ego was a long and brutal one. Ego's power to reshape himself at will saw the various Guardians and their allies besieged on all sides by the ever-changing and hostile planet. Peter himself still held a connection to his father's power and was able to battle Ego's avatar on an almost equal footing while the others used their various skills in a desperate attempt to hold the way open for Rocket to plant his bomb. Unfortunately for Rocket the pathways to the core were too small for him to travel, so the task of arming and detonating the device fell to baby Groot, who had difficulty understand what he had to do. Presently, Groot made off with the bomb while Rocket was distracted and managed to guess the right sequence in spite of his lack of comprehension, leaving a scant five minutes for them all to escape the planet before the bomb detonated.; By degrees, the Guardians and their allies began making their way to the surface, save for Peter who was forced to continue in a pitched battle so that the others could get clear. However, each of them ran afoul of Ego's various attacks, becoming trapped or otherwise blocked during their flight. It was only when the bomb destroyed Ego's core that they could finally resume their race to the Eclector before the entire planet crumbled around around them. Rocket and Groot encountered Yondu during their made dash, and were forced to endure a sorrowful parting as Yondu told them he had no choice but to go back for Peter. Groot made it clear, and Rocket translated, that Yondu could now count himself one of the Guardians of the Galaxy.; Through Yondu's sacrifice, using an aero-rig to propel both himself and Peter into space while trapping Peter in the one spacesuit they had between them, Peter was saved and could rejoin his friends on the Eclector. Together they held a funeral for their fallen comrade, joined by a vast fleet of Ravager ships assembled to pay their respects as well. With the threat of Ego defeated, Nebula departed to search for her own means of opposing Thanos, while Mantis decided to remain with the Guardians.; ===War with Thanos===; While responding to a distress call, the Guardians discovered the remains of an Asgardian refugee ship, where they retrieved the seemingly-dead body of Thor, who was awoken by Mantis. When Thor explained that Thanos had been responsible for the attack, claiming the Space Stone from Loki after previously acquiring the Power Stone, the Guardians decided to return to Knowhere to ensure the security of the Reality Stone. Rocket and Groot departed in a pod to take Thor to a legendary forge where he could acquire a new hammer to kill Thanos, while the other four travelled to Knowhere, Gamora asking Quill to kill her if it looked like Thanos was going to take her prisoner. Unfortunately, they arrived too late to stop Thanos taking the Reality Stone, the Mad Titan using his new power to effortlessly thwart Quill's attempt to kill Gamora before he left.; With Gamora forced to take Thanos to the location of the Soul Stone- which she had discovered a map to long ago- Quill, Drax and Mantis travelled to Titan to try and corner Thanos, guessing that the planet was his base. Upon arriving, they discovered a ship belonging to the Black Order, but a brief fight with the ship's inhabitants revealed that they were Thor's teammates on the Avengers; Iron Man, Spider-Man and Doctor Strange. Confirming that they were each enemies of Thanos, the six made plans to take the Gauntlet from Thanos when he came to Titan, based on Strange's analysis of the future through his own control of the Time Stone.; While Rocket and Groot helped Thor and Eitri restart the forge to create his new hammer, Stormbreaker- Groot 'donating' an arm to complete the hammer's handle- Gamora was forced to take Thanos to the world where the Soul Stone was hidden when he threatened Nebula. They found that the Stone was guarded by the Red Skull, who warned that the Stone could only be claimed if the seeker sacrificed something he truly loved for it. Gamora believed that the need for such a sacrifice ensured that Thanos would never be able to take the Stone, but Thanos proved Gamora wrong when he sacrificed her for the Stone. When Thanos returned to Titan, he was confronted by the assembled Avengers and Guardians, but although Iron Man and Spider-Man almost got the gauntlet off while Mantis used her powers to keep Thanos unfocused, when Nebula appeared and revealed that Gamora was dead, Quill attacked Thanos in a rage, allowing him to gain the advantage in the fight, forcing Strange to surrender the Time Stone to save Stark's life.; When Thanos's forces on Earth attacked Wakanda to claim the final Stone from the Vision- who was currently undergoing 'surgery' to remove the Stone so that it could be destroyed by Scarlet Witch- they were opposed by the Avengers and the Wakandan army, who were able to defeat the remaining members of the Black Order. Thor was able to travel to Earth with Groot and Rocket, with his new weapon almost helping him to gain the upper hand on Thanos, but despite the best efforts of the various heroes, Thanos was able to claim the Mind Stone from the Vision. With the Gauntlet complete, Thanos triggered the deaths of half the living population of the universe, the process killing all of the Guardians of the Galaxy apart from Rocket.; After the heroes learn that they cannot undo Thanos's actions, Rocket and Nebula essentially 're-form' the Guardians of the Galaxy under the Avengers' banner, coordinating their efforts to stabilize what remains of the universe with the heroes on Earth. However, after the return of Scott Lang provides the heroes with the possibility of going back to retrieve past versions of the Stones to reassemble the Gauntlet, Rocket and Nebula return to Earth to contribute their knowledge of the Stones' history. Rocket accompanies Thor to Asgard prior to Malekith's attack to extract the Reality Stone from Jane Foster while Nebula joins James Rhodes in retrieving the Power Stone, but Nebula unwittingly jeopardizes the plan when her cybernetic components wirelessly link up with those of her past self, which alerts Thanos to his future victory and their current efforts. Although the Avengers are able to reassemble the Gauntlet and the Hulk undoes Thanos's efforts, Nebula was able to switch places with her future self and help Thanos travel to the future so that he can use the Gauntlet to remake the universe himself. Fortunately, Doctor Strange was able to teleport the resurrected Guardians to the Avengers Facility to help oppose Thanos's forces, which include the alternate version of Gamora that came to the present with Thanos.; After Iron Man sacrificed himself to use the Infinity Stones and eliminate Thanos and his army, the Guardians of the Galaxy attended Stark's funeral before they depart Earth, with Nebula and Thor now official members of the team as Quill began his search for Gamora.; ===Adventures with Thor===; The team traveled across the galaxy, facing off against several adversaries on several planets, with Thor winning most of their fights for them. After a time, Korg joined the Guardians, and Kraglin became a full-time member with Yondu's Yaka arrow. The team helped Thor recover spiritually and help him get back on his feet, all while searching for Gamora, and Thor finally started to feel he belonged, but when the malicious Gorr began massacring the gods of the universe, Thor and Korg left the Guardians to stop Gorr before he did any more damage, and the team returned to their adventures.

+Created by: Dan Abnett; Otto Schmidt
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-61119
+Base of operations: formally Forest Hills, Battleworld
+History:
+The Guardians who Baron Korvac Michael Korvac in policing Forest Hills. At some point, Forest Hills began to be inflicted by an outbreak of an unknown mental ailment known as "The Madness." Those infected began to remember the world as it was before Battleworld, and eventually turned into mindless beasts, blasphemies against God Doom and the world he created. Most of the time, the Guardians were forced to sanction those infected. After quite some time without any cases involving "Madness Outbreaks," a new infection occurred before the arrival of Baron Simon Williams to Forest Hills. While, the rest of the Guardians went to neutralize one of these cases, Starhawk stayed behind in his Sanctum Sanctorum to track down the source and discover the cause.; After the arrival of Baron Williams and his Avengers, Lady Carina Korvac succumbed and had to be neutralized, Korvac tasked Starhawk with discovering the cause of this. Returning to the Sanctum Sanctorum Starhawk attempted to track down answers on the Astral Plane, with the assistance of Moondragon. While investigating it, Starhawk began to see the true nature of Battleworld, but found his end when he came to the presence of an enigmatic and powerful figure, who used its power to destroy him, his destruction being felt by everyone with psionic powers.; Korvac resurrected his fallen friend by gathering his astral residue and reassembling his soul. However, Starhawk needed time to rest and recover, Afterwards, Mar-Vell began to be inflicted by the Madness, quickly becoming a monster. Both the Guardians and the Avengers, alongside their baron the Wonder Man, tried to stop him, but in vain. Meanwhile, Starhawk awakened and revealed to Moondragon and Geena Drake, his assistant, that the Madness wasn't a weapon, but a contamination leaking from a massive but suppressed psionic source, who was unaware of it.; A battle ensued between the two barons and their teams, with the Guardians trying to protect their baron while the Avengers tried to contain him by all means necessary. As the battle ended, an almost recovered Starhawk showed up and, with Moondragon's assistance, used his powers to connect their minds to Korvac's, showing them the memories he saw inside Korvac's mind in the Astral Plane. The memories revealed the existence of a Multiverse before Battleworld and that its destruction was Doom's fault. Because of that, Korvac hid his powers from Doom in order to one day overthrow his tyranny, undo his work, and remake the universe as it was. But it could not happen anymore as Doom saw Korvac's power manifest and sent the Thors to purge the City from Forest Hills and Holy Wood. Both the Guardians and the Avengers tried to fight back, but they were all killed and the domains destroyed. However, unbeknownst to the Thors and to God Doom himself, Korvac had used his last reserve of power to resurrect his Guardians in a safe place. With no place to go and believed dead, the Guardians decided to lurk in the shadows to avoid Doom's detection, hoping to one day set things right.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Government-funded armor-wearing security force
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Vault, Colorado Rocky Mountains
+Equipment: Guardsman Armor
+History:
+The Guardsmen are a group of elite pilots from the U.S. military that wear the Guardsman armor designed by Tony Stark.; The original, single suit of Guardsman armor was worn by Tony's close associate Kevin O'Brien before he was accidentally killed. Kevin's brother took up wearing the armor to avenge his brother's death, and he later continued to wear it after becoming the head of security for Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S.. When Justin Hammer took over Stark Industries (at the time under the name "Stane International"), he produced and sold 41 copies of the armor to the U.S. military for their guards working at the maximum security prison, the Vault. These prison guards became the first Guardsmen.; When Iron Man began his Armor Wars, he attempted to disable or take back any armor designs sold by Justin Hammer, including the ones in use at the Vault. Stark fought and disabled all of the old Guardsmen armors, so afterward Hammer re-armed the Guardsmen with armor of weaker technology (because it was not copied from Stark's original Guardsman suit this time). These weaker suits left the Guardsmen unable to stop to a mass escape of prisoners later. After eventually regaining control of his company, Stark entered into a new agreement with the U.S. government to provide a better, more powerful set of Guardsmen armor suits to the Vault, but made sure the set was bound to the generators of the facility so they could not be used outside of the Vault.; After the closing of the Vault, the U.S. government still occasionally continued using Guardsmen in security and detention matters.

+History:
+The Haazareth Three are a trio of demons who amuse themselves through granting power in exchange for sacrifices. They provided Doctor Doom with mystical power. As part of his bargain, he took the soul of his old lover Valeria von Frazen by placing a special necklace on her and swore to acknowledge his subservience to the demons for his magical gifts. In exchange, the Three gave Doom a mystical armor comprised of his lover's own skin and flesh, greatly enhancing his mystical powers.; Doom then attacked the Fantastic Four, having offered to give the Haazareth Three their souls as well before casting Franklin Richards into Hell. During that time, The Three mentally tortured Franklin Richards while Doom took delight in magically torturing the Fantastic Four before delivering their souls.; However, Mister Fantastic and Doctor Strange tricked Doom into boasting of his prowess over his demonic benefactors, and the Three angrily grabbed Doom through the Orb of Agamotto to their dimension. The Fantastic Four followed and were able to free Franklin.; The Three tortured Doom and mentioned Mephisto as their 'master'. However, Mister Fantastic soon rescued Doom out of fear he would conquer the realm in due time and banished him to a 'Moebius dimension.'

+Notes: Characters seen wearing Hardliner Armor were seen in Alpha Flight Vol 1 123 but they were not identified as Hardliners and worked with the police.
+History:
+The Hardliners were employed by Joshua Lord (an alias for the Master). They were to hunt down any super-humans and either take them captive for experimentation of to eliminate them. Their leader was named Reginald Tork.; They first appeared when they attacked Albert Louis in Halifax and chased him to Toronto where he confronted Alpha Flight. There, another contignent of Hardliners had caused a battle between the Wrecking Crew and Alpha when they had tried to capture Thunderball. When Albert approached Alpha Flight, the Hardliners claimed that they were 'taking him in' in accordance with the Super-Powers Registration Act. When Alpha Flight refused to turn him over, the Hardliners attacked, and were easily defeated by Guardian and taken into custody.; The entire group was freed when their mysterious backer found legal technicalities in their case and offered to pay for all damages.; Somehow, later on, they captured Albert again and Alpha had to rescue him. Rather than facing Alpha Flight directly, the Hardliners made them run their training course, tiring them out. At the end of the course, the heroes met Omega Flight. It was then revealed that the Master had been controlling the Hardliners all along. In the ensuing battle the the Master was apparently killed and the Hardliners taken into custody.

+Base of operations: Old West, circa 1870s
+Weapons: Pistols, rifles
+Transportation: Horses
+Notes: These Gunhawks should not be confused with either Red Larabee or the bounty hunter known as Gunhawk.
+History:
+===Original Series===; The Gunhawks were Kid Cassidy and Reno Jones. Cassidy was the son of a plantation-owning family in the antebellum American South, and Jones was an African-American slave of the family. Cassidy Sr was kind, treating his slaves like employees, and allowing Reno and the Kid to be tutored together. The boys grew up close friends, and when the American Civil War broke out, Reno chose not to fight on either side, until rampaging Union troops slaughtered his master and carried off his love, Rachel Brown. Reno then joined with Cassidy and they fought together for the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War, with Jones claiming he wanted to kill every Yankee he could. After the war, they became wandering gunfighters, the Gunhawks, and continued searching for Rachel.; Kid Cassidy was later shot and killed by Grey Fox, a Cheyenne chief who now had Rachel, and Jones was blamed for the crime, becoming a fugitive.; ===Modern Version===; It was later revealed that the published adventures of the classic Marvel gunfighters, including the Gunhawks, had actually been dime novels based on the actual gunfighters' actions. In this revised version of events, while Cassidy Sr was a better master than most, his slaves were still treated as slaves; Reno did play with Kid, but the two men had only been friends as children; the plantation was attacked, but Reno didn't join the Confederate Army. After the war, his old friendship with Kid was revived, they did ride together for a while, and Kid genuinely had become sick of racism.; At this point their friendship was unquestionable; Kid underwent grueling Cheyenne trails to become a brave for his friend, and Reno, armed only with a knife, fought an angry Grizzly to save Kid. They fought buffalo rustlers, led a revolt against a slave-owning plantation owner, and tried to stop the Medicine Creek massacre whee the insane Reverend Graves ran guns to Grey Fox's Cheyennes but then set the cavalry on them, hoping to wipe out both sides. Afterwards Reno spotted Grey Fox fleeing his Rachel, but Kid knocked him out, having learned Rachel didn't want Reno pursuing her, afraid of Fox's violent jealousy.; Reno drew on Kid for this, only to deliberately shoot wide. Kid and Reno kept tracking Rachel, but their friendship had been damaged, and Kid grew increasingly bitter, and finally drew on Reno, who shot him down, then fled. Reno picked up Rachel's trail in Cayuse, New Mexico, got framed for another murder by San Francisco Slade, and met the Rawhide Kid.; Ten years later Reno Jones had taken up residence in the town of Wonderment, Montana, a town populated largely by freed slaves; there, he married a woman named Mary, and they had a son named Cass (Cassidy). Kid meanwhile, had survived, holding onto a seething hatred of Reno. By 1885 he was an enforcer, working for a corrupt businessman named Clay Riley- who had previously fought the original Ghost Rider as a costumed bandit called the Tarantula - sought to take the town's land by force. To this end, he hired a group of the Ku Klux Klan's Nightriders to kill the townsfolk. Kid discovered Reno was living there, finally giving him a chance for revenge. To defend the town Jones brought in a number of Western gunfighters including the Rawhide Kid, Two-Gun Kid, Caleb Hammer, Gunhawk, Kid Colt, Outlaw Kid, and Red Wolf. Red Wolf, who had been a contemporary and ally of the deceased Ghost Rider, provided Jones with the Rider's costume, knowing that this would give him a psychological advantage over Riley. Believed killed in an early skirmish, Reno secretly became the Phantom Rider.; After many fatalities on both sides, Jones killed Riley and then unmasked the Nightriders' leader as Kid Cassidy. Before either could fully react, the Outlaw Kid stunned Cassidy, and Jones took the opportunity to strangle Cassidy to death. After the carnage was over, Jones returned the Ghost Rider costume and retired to take care of his family.

+The Guardsmen were armor users hired by Obadiah Stane to discredit Iron Man. They first appeared where they beat Iron Man to a crane accident. Force and Shockwave then stopped Count Nefaria and his Maggia forces from robbing a bank before Iron Man could get there. Force and Shockwave fought Count Nefaria who took them down and were saved when Iron Man defeated Nefaria. Force and Shockwave then snitched on Obadiah Stane's plans to mass-produced the Guardsmen armor. Iron Man used the Negator Packs on them, causing the crowd to drive him away.; Obadiah Stane made a public service announcement for the Guardsmen, planning to take down Iron Man and the upcoming Guardsmen Expo Center. Iron Man learned later that the Guardsmen caused the disasters for them to thwart, and that the armor pilots were former Maggia members. When the day of the Guardsmen Expo comes, Firepower was introduced as the latest Guardsmen. Iron Man appeared and ended up forcing the Guardsmen to reveal their identities upon hacking their screen. This caused the three Guardsmen to attack Iron Man. The Negator Packs thrown on them didn't work on them this time as Iron Man saved a reporter and her cameraman. The three Guardsmen end up overwhelming Iron Man until War Machine appears. Iron Man deactivated Firepower while Force and Shockwave surrendered. Obadiah Stane later made a televised appearance stating that he had no idea that the three wearing the Guardsmen armor were criminals using fake identities.

+History:
+The Half-Fulls were a unit of the U.S. Army during the Siancong War. During a mission in Cambodia they stumbled upon the Temple of the Dragon's Breath cult. There they met Tai and the brides of the cult. Tai made an offer to the six men: marry the brides and the children from those unions would one day rule the world. The temple was built around an interdimensional vortex that crossed into several other dimensions and the members of the Cult had planned through centuries of selective breeding to tap into the power of the well, with the end goal of their descendants one day ruling the world. Tai had murdered her people in order to ensure she alone would reap the reward from the well.; Daryl Taylor declined Tai's offer while Andrew Chord, Collier Mack, Diego Casseas, Mark Conroy, and Go Vin Ng accepted the offer. Daryl Taylor and his wife were murdered for Daryl's rejection of the terms of the pact. The other members of the Half-Fulls besides Daryl and Diego went on to father children who would one day become members of the Folding Circle. Diego and his wife had a daughter who was left comatose in an elevator crash. Diego used dark arts to steal his daughter's powers for himself and he became the Left Hand.; Tai's only daughter Miyami was given to Andrew Chord. Miyami later faked the deaths of herself and her children to keep them out of Tai's hands. Andrew Chord and Miyami's children became Silhouette and Midnight's Fire.; Mark Conroy and his wife had a son named Eric Conroy (Bloodstrike). Collier Mack and his wife had a son named Conrad Mack (Smiling Tiger). Go Vin Ng and his wife had a daughter named Min Li Ng (Silk Fever).; Daryl Taylor refused the pact on the grounds that he was faithful to his wife Melody who he married when they were 18 years old. Together they had a son named Dwayne Taylor (Night Thrasher). Ironically Daryl cheated on Melody with a woman he met on a business trip to Chicago and has an illegitimate son named Donyell Taylor (Bandit).; Tai had her son-in-law Andrew Chord murder Daryl and Melody Taylor. From that point on Dwayne was raised by Chord and Tai who played on his desire for revenge and steered him towards creating his own team of superheroes. Tai's people's plan for the Children of the Pact (The Folding Circle) was to sacrifice them to the well so that Tai's generation (the grandparents of the Folding Circle) would be granted the full power of the well. Tai had modified the plan and wanted to sacrifice the New Warriors instead and keep the Children of the Pact alive to serve as her avatars on earth.; Tai and the Left Hand were killed when Night Thrasher shot Tai and she and Diego fell into the Well. Mark Conroy died 3 years before his son became Bloodstrike. Go Vin Ng's daughter is an orphan, and may have been killed in the napalm explosion that triggered Min Li Ng's powers. Andrew Chord is still alive. Collier Mack's fate is unknown.

+History:
+The robots of Halfworld were created by the humanoid settlers. While the doctors better known as the "Shrinks" worked to cure their patients better known as the "Loonies", the robots took care of the planet's medical facilities, providing food and water to the patients. However, over time the humanoid race that settled on the planet returned to to their homeworld, but they left the "Loonies" behind to be cared for by the robots. Over time the robots developed their own intelligence and no longer wished to care for the organics but did not want to leave them without caretakers. The robots sent out probes across the galaxy to collect animal specimens from various worlds. They altered the animals to gain intelligence and a more humanoid form becoming the Halfworlders, leaving them behind to care for the "Loonies". The machines then retreated to the other side of the planet, which they turned into an industrial park to work on how to shut down the protective Galacian. They robots manufactured the toys designed for the Loonies' amusement, and manufactured the prosthetics and weapons the animals requested for their own use. After the Loonies were cured, the machines left in their star-ship.

+The reality of Earth-9418 had a similar history to Earth-616. However, after the implementation of Canada's Super-Powers Registration Act on Earth-9418, Alpha Flight found themselves competing with the Hardliners to capture and contain unregistered super-powered individuals. The Hardliners were willing to use violent and brutal methods to capture super-powered individuals, including murder. It soon became apparent that politician Robert Hagon and the Hardliners were a puppet for Joshua Lord who was capturing the super-powered people for experimentation.; Lord then lead a slaughter of baseline Canadians by his Hardliner forces and performed genetic engineering on most of the remaining populace. Lord's actions were hidden from the rest of the world by a protective web around Canada that prevented news from spreading to outside sources and also erased memories for those who passed through the psionic web (so that anyone who left the country would forget what happened). After years of resistance by Alpha Flight, the surviving members attempted escape but Lord ordered a strike team of Hardliners and super-powered operatives to intercept them. Alpha Flight's members were killed or contained, eliminating the chance for help from abroad.

Thus, she had her sisters prepare themselves for the coming battle.; When the Orb and Vengeance arrived with an army of zombie bikers in tow, the Nuns fought back to protect the gateway. As the newly arrived Ghost Riders knocked out the Orb and Vengeance, Mother Superior shot Blackout with bullets dipped in holy water, forcing him to flee. Upon meeting Blaze and Ketch in person, Mother Superior quickly led them to the gateway to Heaven, wishing the duo good luck in their battle with Zadkiel as they departed. The Deacon appeared soon afterwards and killed most of the Nuns there in two minutes.; Mother Superior, the only surviving member of the Gun Nuns, was saved from the Deacon by Sister Sara, an ally of the Ghost Riders whose sisters were also murdered by the Deacon. Following her recovery, Mother Superior made a slave out of Vengeance to guard the gateway to Heaven in the place of her fallen sisters.

+===Origin===; This group of security guards working for Nextin Pharmaceuticals were enhanced by a recreation of the Super-Soldier Serum developed by Jacob Erskine.; ===Heroic Age===; Steve Rogers first encountered these Super-Soldier Formula-enhanced guards when he infilitrated a gala held by Nextin Pharma for their shareholders in Madripoor's Sovereign Hotel. He suspected the party could be used as a courtain for any meeting with potential buyers of the Super-Soldier Serum. A group of guards intercepted him when he attempted to reach the VIP gymnasium. The version of the serum the soldiers were enhanced by was dangerously flawed, leading one of them to collapse in the middle of combat due to a brain aneurysm. Steve defeated the remaining guards and managed to find his target, Jacob Erskine.; Once Erskine was gunned down in front of Rogers' eyes, he fled from the hotel. A group of guards rushed to Erskine's office but Rogers was already gone. After Machinesmith captured Rogers and neutralized the Super-Soldier Serum in his body, a pair of guards knocked him down and took him to a cell. These soldiers then took him out of his cell to execute him, but Steve managed to slip from their grasp and defeat them since he still retained his training despite being powerless. After Rogers regained his powers, more guards tried to stop them, but he defeated them swiftly.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; Super Soldier Serum: The guards are powered by a replica of the Super-Soldier Serum, presumably granting them abilities that can match those of Captain America. The Super-Soldier Serum additionally augmented the guards' body mass and height.; Enhanced Physical Condition: The guards' strength, speed, reflexes, durability, stamina, and healing were allegedly enhanced to the peak of human potential. They are supposedly faster, stronger, and more durable than the finest athletes.; Peak Human Strength: The guards' strength is enhanced to the peak of human potential. They are strong enough to push Steve Rogers through a wall during a fight.; Peak Human Durability: The guards' were able to withstand getting smashed into a wall by Steve Rogers, and receiving gunshots with little to no injury.; Peak Human Speed: The guards are capable moving at incredibly fast speeds for their size.; ===Abilities===; Skilled Combatants: The guards were shown to be brutal fighters and proficient with firearms as well.; ===Weaknesses===; Serum Instability: The Super-Soldier Serum used to empower these guards was unstable, leading one of the guards to suddely drop dead due to a brain aneurysm.

+Created by: J.M. DeMatteis; Mark Bagley
+Species / origin: Imperfect human clones created by the Jackal
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+One of the many imperfect clones of Gwen Stacy created by the Jackal was used to sow confusion between Spider-Man and the Scarlet Spider. This plot was intended to make the pair question which was the real Peter Parker and which was the clone.; To this end, the Jackal tried to convince the two Spiders that the real Gwen Stacy had not died many years prior, and presented a clone as proof. This deception initially worked and was quite painful for Spider-Man as he had long since moved on with his life following the death of the real Gwen Stacy and had a common-law relationship with Mary Jane Watson. Despite the fact that he was offered the chance of being with "Gwen Stacy" again, Spider-Man refused to give up on his life, even though the Jackal had also spent this time trying to convince him that he was a clone.; As Spider-Man told Gwen that he was unwilling to give up his life, she suddenly began feeling ill. She then suddenly began degenerating, the eventual fate of all of the Jackal's imperfect clones. Spider-Man and the Scarlet Spider then watched in utter horror as the Gwen clone melted into a pile of genetic goo on the floor. They were then forced to flee the Jackal's facility before it exploded, presumably destroying all trace of the Gwen Stacy clone.; With his plan to replace all humanity with clones created by him going smoothly, the Jackal sent Spider-Man, who at that time believed himself to be a clone, after the most perfect Gwen Stacy clone he had ever created: Joyce Delaney. In anticipation of her return, the Jackal released all the other Gwen Stacy clones at his secret hideout and activated their degeneration factor, killing all of them.; ==Attributes==; ===Powers===; None.; ===Abilities===; As exact copies of Gwen Stacy, they had the same skills and abilities as the template they were based on.; ===Weaknesses===; Like all of the Jackal's imperfect clones, these Gwen Stacy clones were prone to degeneration. If this is a natural weakness, or intentionally implanted by the Jackal is subject to debate. This is because the Jackal has claimed to have a cure for clone degeneration, has created perfect clones in the past, and has even triggered instant degeneration in other clones through a "kill switch" he implanted in them as a failsafe.; Clear

+Species / origin: Formed by the Mandarin to attack Hong Kong and lure Force Works to the area.
+Reality: Earth-534834
+Base of operations: Formerly Mandarin's citadel
+History:
+The Hand was a group created by the Mandarin, after he used the Heart of Darkness Crystal to teleport four of his former servants to his citadel. As Blacklash, Blizzard, Hypnotia and Whirlwind were teleported to the citadel, they were provided with new Exo-Armors and ordered to attack Hong Kong. After being teleported to the area, Force Works soon arrived to fight them. While the rest of the group was defeated, Hypnotia managed to overpower Force Works, before she was defeated by an arriving Century. With the Hand tied up, Century mind linked with Hypnotia to discover that the Mandarin was using the Heart of Darkness, just as the anti-technology field approached them.; Around the time in which the Mandarin defeated and captured Iron Man, the Hand was freed. After Force Works crash landed into the Mandarin's citadel, Whirlwind managed to throw War Machine off the building, forcing him to grab onto a tunnel and crawl through the sewage system. Scarlet Witch used her powers to redirect Whirlwind towards his allies, with Spider-Woman using her psi-webs to restrain him. Following their defeat, the Mandarin used a trap door that led Force Works to the chamber of the Heart of Darkness, swiftly defeating them in the process. After James Rhodes managed to free Tony Stark, the Mandarin ordered the Hand to find Iron Man. After they failed to find him, the Mandarin decided to use the captured members of Force Works to extend the range of the anti-technology field to Hong Kong and the rest of China. The Mandarin then realised that he would rather have the whole Earth than just China and betrayed the Hand, strapping them onto the remaining thrones surrounding the Heart of Darkness. The combined powers of the Hand and Force Works extended the negation field to the entire planet. After Iron Man returned to face off against the Mandarin, in a new armor that resisted the anti-technology field, he freed Hawkeye and Scarlet Witch. Iron Man placed himself on one of the thrones and had Scarlet Witch redirect the Mandarin's energy, causing the Heart of Darkness to explode. What happened the members of the Hand after the Crystal exploded is unknown.

+Created by: Steve Gerber; Sal Buscema
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+History:
+Their first known activity as a group came when Nagan and Morgan contacted the minor sideshow sorcerer known as Chondu the Mystic. While he was believed by the general public to be a charlatan, Chondu actually did possess some mystical talents. The two deformed scientists had created a mind-amplifying drug which pushed Chondu's talents far beyond their norm. They injected the serum into the base of Chondu's cerebral cortex and Chondu cast a spell which caused every sleeping and unconscious person, including the Hulk, in New York City to experience a sleepwalking dream terror, with people jumping out of windows in high buildings, running out into traffic, etc. Nagan used this period of confusion to go on a crime spree, robbing the jewelry stores of New York's "Diamond Row." He was opposed by Nighthawk, but managed to stun him and escape with a small fortune.; The Headmen then surfaced again some months later as the three men kidnapped Nighthawk, transplanting the brain of Chondu into his body in an attempt to infiltrate the Defenders. He attempted to capture the group with his mystical abilities, but was soon defeated by the much-superior-in-powers Doctor Strange. It was at this time that Nagan recruited Ruby Thursday into the ranks of the group against the protestations of Morgan, who personally considered her to be a technological abomination.; The Defenders learned that Chondu's mind was in Richmond's body, so Doctor Strange used his powers to mystically transfer the minor sorcerer's mind into the body of a baby deer that the Hulk had rescued from hunters. He then transferred the mind of Defenders-associate Jack Norriss into Nighthawk's body and the group set out to find the Headmen. They discovered the Headmen's headquarters, but were quickly ambushed by Ruby Thursday and captured.; The Valkyrie, the Hulk and Doctor Strange were then all connected to encephalo-transmogrifiers meant to cause the group to become pawns of the Headmen. Nighthawk was not connected to one, as the group still believed him to have Chondu's mind. The Defenders, however, escaped and destroyed the Headmen's headquarters in Westbury, Connecticut, retrieving Nighthawk's brain in the process, though the Headmen themselves were able to escape.; Chondu, his mind still in the body of the fawn, was captured by Nebulon the Celestial Man and his group the Ludberdites, along with many other people of Earth, to be used as part of his Celestial Mind Control movement. He used his powers to transport both himself and Nebulon to the Headmen's alternate headquarters, planning to use Nebulon in the Headmen's schemes. Nebulon had no interest whatsoever in the Headmen, however, and quickly departed, while Chondu's mind was placed back into his own body, which had been grotesquely altered into a monstrous version of it by Nagan. This was a shock to Chondu, who went insane and briefly attacked his teammates before leaving the group to find another body to transfer his mind into. He was spotted by the Valkyrie and Jack Norriss (now in possession of his own body once again) and was quickly defeated, though he was able to escape as the Valkyrie was arrested for the destruction of the restaurant where their battle had taken place.; The Headmen continued on with their machinations to rule the world through non-violent means, mostly through the use of social, political and economic scheming. Morgan went to France, while Nagan went to India using Morgan's shrinking particles to shrink down important political figures. Back in the United States, Ruby was running for President. Despite also shrinking down the members of the Defenders, the heroes soon found a way to return themselves and the political figures to their normal size and swiftly defeated the Headmen yet again.

+History:
+The Hellions were a team of teenaged mutants who were recruited by the powerful telepath Emma Frost and trained educationally and in the use of their powers at her private school the Massachusetts Academy.; Early in the Hellions' existence as a team, three of the members - Roulette, Thunderbird, and Empath decided to take revenge on the X-Men for the death of Thunderbird's elder brother while he was a member of the hero team. Empath used his powers to influence one of Frost's other students Firestar, who was not formally a Hellion, into falling in love with him so that she would help them. During the battle with the hero team, however, Thunderbird realized he was wrong to be seeking vengeance.; The Hellions often clashed with the New Mutants, though the relationship between the teams was often fairly cordial, and even flirtatious in some cases. For a time, the two teams even resided alongside each other. Under the influence of Empath, Magneto sent the New Mutants to Frost's school, but soon recovered and retrieved his students.; A group of villains known as the Upstarts participated in a contest against each other to kill as many influential mutants as possible. The contest was secretly founded by the Hellfire Club's Black Queen Selene to test her fellow Inner Circle members. One of the Upstarts, the insane time traveler Trevor Fitzroy, used his Sentinels to attack and kill Hellfire Club White King Donald Pierce and his Reavers. Trying to escape, Pierce had himself teleported by the mutant Gateway to a party thrown by Emma Frost and attended by the X-Men and Hellions. In the ensuing battle, most of the Hellions were slaughtered, either by Fitzroy himself or his Sentinels. The Massachusetts Academy was abandoned until it was used to train Generation X.; The dead Hellions, along with many other deceased mutants, were later resurrected by Selene Gallio during the events of Necrosha. They launched an attack on Utopia, but they were killed by the New Mutants.; Recently, the squad was reassembled in the newly-created mutant nation of Krakoa, after its members were presumably resurrected by The Five.; ==Hellions==; Beef - (Buford Wilson); Bevatron - (Fabian Marechal-Julbin); Catseye - (Sharon Smith); Empath - (Manuel de la Rocha); Firestar - (Angelica Jones); Jetstream - (Haroun ibn Sallah al-Rashid); Roulette - (Jennifer Stavros); Tarot - (Marie-Ange Colbert); Thunderbird - (James Proudstar)

Both X-Factor and Hell's Belles fled, but met up again, at which point X-Factor overpowered the Belles and took them into custody.; After Decimation, Flambé, Tremolo, and Vague were all depowered. Briquette is the only member of the Hell's Belles who retained her mutant powers.; The Hell's Belles resurfaced several years later. Despite having lost their powers, Flambé, Tremolo, and Vague operated as career criminals equipped with various weaponry. A group of young mutants found the Belles robbing a bank and managed to defeat the trio, leaving them tied up for the police.; While imprisoned, Vague used her phone call to contact Briquette for help. Briquette broke the depowered Belles out of prison and battled the Children of the Atom. The Belles were about to defeat the teens when Storm appeared and offered Flambé, Tremolo, and Vague a spot on Krakoa with Briquette.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Various
+Notes: Hela and Pluto control realms of the dead, but are considered "Death-Gods", not Hell-Lords. However, Hell-Lords such as Mephisto have also been referred to as Death-Gods, which would imply this distinction is superficial. Hence, despite this distinction, Hela is a member of the Hell-Lords and Pluto has previously been a member. Similarly, Dormammu is one of the Faltine and rules over the Dark Dimension, but has also been a member of the Hell-Lords. The Hazareth Three also maintain a "Hell"-like dimension but, otherwise, they do not seem to be connected to the Hell-Lords.; Various uniquely powerful demons, such as Krampus and the Beast, have dominion over portions of Hell, but have not been explicitly identified as Hell-Lords.; Many of the Hell-Lords are Class Two Demons.
+Trivia: Some of the Hell-Lords are members of the Lords of the Splinter Realms, another group of rulers of Hell-like dimensions.
+History:
+===The Pre-Cataclysmic Age and the Hyborian Age===; Aqquoonkagua, Dansker, Kx'ulthuum, Xuthl, and others were among the Hell-Lords during the Pre-Cataclysmic Age and the Hyborian Age, when the netherworlds were known as Arallu. They eventually lost power over time.; ===The Modern Age===; ====X-Infernus====; Darkchilde searched for the missing Bloodstone Amulet and her Soulsword. She was watched by the Hell-Lords. Every one of them, except Mephisto, was impressed by her. It was then shown that they were summoned by Witchfire. Witchfire revealed that she intended to call the Elder Gods of Limbo using the Bloodstones. She then told them to stay away from Limbo so that she could conquer it and destroy Darkchilde. Mephisto replied that if she takes back her kingdom, she will be offered a seat and may have a place in their larger goals.; ====Prelude to the Descent====; As the deadline for an event called the Descent, wherein one of the Hell-Lords would be chosen to become the new devil, began approaching, the Hell-Lords began choosing candidates to replace them should they be chosen. Mephisto selected Agent Venom, the Red Hulk, and X-23 as potential candidates, bestowing on them Hell Marks. Daimon Hellstrom, himself a candidate due to being Marduk Kurios' son, later possessed Venom with a demon in order to turn the symbiote into one of his Monsters of Evil and make Flash a more legitimate candidate, but the demon was suppressed by the Hell Mark and later revealed that possessing those who bore the Hell Marks had been forbidden. The Venom symbiote, realizing that the demon was beginning to take control of Flash, expelled it and the Hell Mark into its clone, which it bonded to Andrea Benton, turning her into Mania.; ====The Hell on Earth War====; Tier Sinclair became the central mover in a war between the various Hell-Lords. The first to kill him would be crowned the King of Hell. After Tier was able to kill Pluto, Mephisto decided that the rules were forfeit and turned his attention to his fellows. X-Factor became the last line of resistance and fought the seemingly victorious Mephisto. Strong Guy took the opportunity to kill Tier in the chaos, winning the War and becoming the King of Hell.; When the Thunderbolts were accidentally stranded in Hell, they made a deal with Mephisto to get out in exchange for dethroning the "Pretender," who was revealed to them to be Strong Guy. The Red Hulk fought against Strong Guy and managed to convince Guido to abandon the position of Hell-Lord and try to regain his lost soul, allowing Mephisto to regain the throne and let the Thunderbolts return to Earth. The Red Hulk offered Strong Guy the opportunity to return with them, but he preferred to stay until he could regain his soul.; Veleda later used the stolen belongings of various Hell-Lords (one of Satannish's teeth, Pluto's cape clasp, a piece of Daimon Hellstrom's trident, a glass that was kissed by Satana Hellstrom, and a voided contract with Mephisto) as part of a ritual that was designed to summon and enslave Hela.

+Base of operations: Central City, California
+History:
+Harvey Jessup, a scientist from Central City, California, was colleagues with Reed Richards. While Richards went on to become the leader of the super-heroes known as the Fantastic Four, Jessup began using his expertise in nuclear energy to work for the Republic Oil and Gas Company (later known as Roxxon). When Jessup's manager pressured him to cut corners in the building of a nuclear reactor, Jessup refused and was then fired. With nuclear disarmament talks between the United States and Russia were not making any progress, Jessup became afraid that the world was going to be destroyed in a nuclear war. Harvey was later inspired when watching a new interview with the Fantastic Four, wherein Reed Richards expressed an interest in field-effect phenomena. This inspired Harvey to use F.E.P. to protect his people from nuclear attack. For the next six years, Harvey Jessup worked on a device he would later call the Salvation Machine. The intention was that the device would place a protective dome around Central City where time inside the dome would move slower than outside, eventually the dome would be dropped once it was safe to venture outside. When Jessup's invention was complete, he activated the device, surrounding Central City with a massive black dome that kept it separated from the outside world. Either by accident or design, the Salvation Device did the opposite it intended: It sped up time within the dome, so much so that for every second that went by outside an entire month passed within.; With fifty loyal technicians, Jessup rounded up the people of Central City and placed them in a state of suspended animation. Taking on the role of Great Coordinator, Jessup began advancing his society. Jessup maintained a centuries old life thanks to being placed in suspended animation, only being taken out when absolutely necessary. His followers formed a religion based on the Fantastic Four. They then began building up the city into a massive utopia. However, Harvey began to suspect something was wrong, but would not consider lowering the dome for fear that his theory of nuclear Armageddon proved to be true. Hundreds of years passed within the dome and it was eventually breached by the Avenger known as Iron Man, who remained within Central City, hunted by Jessup's minions for three weeks before escaping back outside. This prompted Jessup to create an army to defend his utopia, and engineered later generations into protectors of the realm: the Clobber Patrol, the Fire Patrol, the Wing Patrol, and Head Patrol. The patrols were based upon the Thing, Human Torch, Mister Fantastic, and the Invisible Woman respectively. The Head Patrol in particular were strange conjoined twins with two faces. The had the ability to project invisible force fields much like the Invisible Woman.; Hundreds more years passed and the dome was breached by the She-Hulk, who had recently replaced the Thing as a member of the Fantastic Four at the time. Jessup had his minions subdue her, but his daughter Murna protested, realizing that there was something not right about her father's plan. In response, Jessup had Murna exiled and the She-Hulk placed in suspended animation.; After centuries had passed within the dome, the Fantastic Four and their ally Wyatt Wingfoot ended up breaching the dome to find their missing comrade, and discovered the civilization Jessup created within. After battling with the various patrols, the Fantastic Four were greeted by Princess Livia puppet ruler of the people. They were brought to the Grand Controller, who Richards had figured out was his old colleague. At first believing that they were impostors, Jessup decided to try and destroy the Fantastic Four instead of losing his position as a savior. The Invisible Woman was able to protect them with their invisibility powers and they were soon assisted in escaping by Murna. Murna in turn helped the Fantastic Four confront her father and free She-Hulk. During the ensuing battle against the Grand Coordinator, Murna was able to mind link Harvey with Reed Richards and force him to see the truth. Realizing the errors of his ways, Jessup agreed to let the people of Central City go free from suspended animation and go their own way with the Fantastic Four. Harvey died soon after, and the Fantastic Four freed Jessup's prisoners. Reed then used the Salvation Machine to send the future world of Central City deep into the future where it hopefully could thrive in peace.

+History:
+The Hel-Rangers consisted of exiled inhabitants from other domains due to crimes they had committed and were sent to The Shield forever to guard the rest of Battleworld from the Zombies of the Deadlands, the Ultron Drones of Perfection, and the Annihilation Wave of New Xandar.; After another day of work at the Shield, defending it against an attack of Giant Ant-Men Zombies, Commander Brand talked one last time with Leah before she went to venture herself beyond the Shield to try and find her long lost lover Illyana. As Leah left, Kang approached Brand and boasted about his fighting skills and how he would subdue all the south of Battleworld to his will, which angered her. While she was telling him that protecting the Shield wasn't as simple as he thought it was, Kang's wrist began to bleep and his future self suddenly appeared before them. Before fading away, future Kang told them the Shield would fall in twenty days, and that Thanos would doom them all.; Fifteen days later, Commander Brand and her men still hadn't found Thanos. Desperate to find him before he could destroy the Shield, Brand resorted to asking the Unite, robots in love that had betrayed Ultron and allied themselves with the Hel-Rangers of the Shield, to try and find him. But, as they spoke, the Unite detected the powerful army of the Ultron Engine, the greatest threat to ever faced the Shield as it married up the technology of the Ultron Drones with the unrelenting energy of the undead, heading towards the Shield. Brand then alerted everyone so they could prepare themselves to battle. As the Vitruvian Man prepared the Enlightment Cannon to shoot, and Kang tried in vain to call chronoallies, Lady Katherine spotted someone on the front line of the Ultron Engine, which to Commander Brand's horror was none other than a monstrous Fury, the presumed dead commander of the Shield.; Under siege and at risk of failing their duty, the Hel-Rangers of the Shield tried everything they could to stop Nick the Fury, as he was the reason why the Ultron Engine was advancing so viciously. With the Endless Summers being reduced to only one-hundred men, and Kang unable to navigate through the timestream thanks to chronomines, Brand sought the help of the Unite once again. One of the Unite tried to use its ability to control robots to make Nick the Fury kill himself, but was killed instead. Using the remaining Unite as a distraction, Kang was able to take Nick the Fury into the timestream and pilot him into every chronomine he could.; Meanwhile, Leah returned with Magik and her brother, Colossus, as well as a demonic army to assist Brand in her battle against the remaining enemies of the Ultron Engine. After the battle ended, Leah and Magik, who had planned since the beginning to hold a subdomain in the Deadlands to rule without submitting to God Emperor Doom, left the Hel-Rangers and returned to the Deadlands. As Brand grieved her army's death, a rift in reality opened above her, with Kang emerging alive, along with Fury's corpse. While they hugged, they were approached by Thanos, who was teleported to the other side of the Shield by Sheriff Strange moments before Doom killed him.; After turning himself in, Thanos revealed he had spent his time organizing the denizens of Perfection, New Xandar, and the Deadlands into an army on its way to destroy the other domains. As the combined efforts of the south attacked the Shield and Brand dealt with it, Thanos told The Thing that Doom had lied to him, and that this world was merely an artificial creation. Knowing this, The Thing rose up to confront Doom, thus removing a massive tract of the Shield and leaving.; With the Shield fallen, Kang went back in time to try and prevent the Shield's collapse; meanwhile, Ms. America and Lady Katherine escaped. With the rest of her team dead, Abigail Brand and the last surviving member of the Endless Summers, Major Summers lost their lives standing against the incoming forces of the south.

+History:
+Moondragon was an assassin who operated in New York for 3 years, working for the mob and Paragon Corporation among others, before being slain herself in a car crash. Prior to her demise a cult called the Enclave obained a sample of Moondragon's DNA. Having detected the approach of the world-consuming Gah Lak Tus more than 20 years ago, the Enclave worshipped his coming. Desiring to have the finest human representatives to meet the entity, the Enclave used Douglas' DNA to create hundreds of genetically altered female and male clones, training them as assassins and priests.; Believing that the only beings worthy to greet the arriving entity were their clones, the Enclave were angered to discover that a group of silver men, the "Silver Wings," were gathering followers and preaching that Gah Lak Tus was a angry God returning, and that only mass suicide and planetary extinction would placate it and permit ascension to heaven. Wanting to stop the spread of this usurping rival, the Enclave sent out its clones to slay the cultists. Sniping at a New York cult meeting, one of Moondragons killed many of the members, but failed to do significant damage to the Silver Wing leading the meeting; private investigator Misty Knight witnessed the assault and pursued the clone, who narrowly evaded her. Either this clone or another was subsequently sent to sabotage a telepathic booster used by S.H.I.E.L.D. to contact Gah Lak Tus, but was captured by Knight after completing her mission. After S.H.I.E.L.D. rebuild the transmitter, the Enclave sent a clone army to assault S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Triskelion base, hoping to prevent telepath Charles Xavier from using the devise to attack Gah Lak Tus, but the Moondragons were stopped by the combined forces of S.H.I.E.L.D., the Ultimates and the X-Men.

+History:
+The Heat was a private military company comprised of corrupt and former police officers who brought their own brand of justice to Hell's Kitchen. The Daredevils (Matt Murdock and Elektra Natchios) crippled their ranks after their first encounter.; By the time of the "Gang War", Lieutenant Rafael Scarfe assumed leadership of The Heat while the organization maintained control of Hell's Kitchen within New York City's criminal underworld. The Heat joined forces with Madame Masque, who provided funds and high-tech weaponry for their operations and hired Bellona to act as a middlewoman between her and The Heat. When tensions between superpowered gangs escalated to a city wide war, Daredevil (Elektra) volunteered to deal with The Heat.; Wilson Fisk took the reins of The Heat when he returned to Hell's Kitchen and to his criminal roots while under the influence of the devil Greed. However, when Daredevil exorcised the devil off him, a repentant Fisk turned a new leaf and disbanded The Heat in the process.; The Latverian terrorist Lucia von Bardas brought the gang under her patronage, relocating them to Chicago to enact a campaign of class cleansing. They set up a black site named Hellman Circle where they detained undersirable Chicagoans, mostly people of color, and misappropriated Stark surveillance technology for their goals. Iron Man eventually caught wind of The Heat's operation and raided Hellman Circle with Ironheart and Melinda May. Following von Bardas' defeat, May decided to found a private security company and offer the mercenary members of The Heat a better venue for their services.

+Heralds of Galactus (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: Heralds of Galactus (Earth-616)
+Full name: Heralds of Galactus
+Other aliases: Galactus' Heralds; Galaction Heralds
+First appearance: Fantastic Four Vol 1 48
+Created by: Stan Lee; Jack Kirby
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: The Heralds of Galactus are individuals that have been imbued with a small fraction of Galactus’ immense Power Cosmic in order to travel through the universe in search of energy-rich planets for Galactus to consume. Over the years, Galactus has had several Heralds, though few, if any, are as famous as the Silver Surfer.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Generally mobile under their own power or Galactus' Worldship, Taa II
+Equipment: Varies based on the Herald, but most are self-sufficient and rely on very little equipment. The Air-Walker possessed the "Horn of Galactus," a golden trumpet-like device that could summon Galactus from across any distance.
+Weapons: A few of Galactus' Heralds have utilized weapons. Terrax the Tamer and Morg the Executioner each wield a heavy axe, while Red Shift carried a pair of swords that allowed him to create portals in space, Stardust uses some kind of a spear, and Firelord uses a staff to channel his cosmic flame.
+Transportation: Each Herald traveled under their own power using the Power Cosmic. The Silver Surfer flies through the universe on a silver construct that looks much like a surfboard, while most of the other Heralds simply fly under their own power.
+Notes: Galactus and his Heralds were stated to be cosmic level threats.; It is possible for Galactus to deploy multiple Heralds at once.; Some sources make reference to a "gladiator" that Galactus coveted as a Herald for many years, but who was rescued from this fate by the Fantastic Four. The identity of this Herald is unknown, but it may be the Shi'ar Empire's Imperial Guardsman Gladiator.; Rom, the greatest of the Spaceknights of Galador, offered to lead Galactus to another world to feed upon in place of his homeworld of Galador in Rom Vol 1 27
+Trivia: Omnimax, the Devourer of Worlds in the Sixth Cosmos, and What-Must-Be, the Devourer of Worlds in the Fourth Cosmos, also deployed Heralds. When displaced to those former cycles, Dr. Carlo Zota became one for each of them.; Galactus has associated four of his Heralds with the four elements of alchemy: the Silver Surfer with water, the Air-Walker with air, Firelord with fire, and Terrax the Tamer with earth.; A human woman named Roberta attempted to become a Herald of Galactus by stealing some of the Power Cosmic, fashioning herself after the Silver Surfer, and bringing the Devourer of Worlds Howard the Duck who was, at the time, a living Nexus of All Realities. However, Galactus rejected her and instead offered Howard the chance to become his new Herald, but he turned down the offer.
+History:
+Galactus, originally named Galan, is one of the oldest and most powerful beings in existence. He survived the death of his previous universe in the Sixth Cosmos and the birth of the current one in the Seventh Cosmos, but he is crippled by an insatiable cosmic hunger that drives him to consume the very life-energies of entire planets. Eons ago, Galactus realized that it was far more efficient to use advance scouts or "Heralds" to seek out desirable planets for him to consume. In the years that followed, Galactus created a succession of Heralds, each with very different backgrounds, motives, and personalities.; ===The Fallen One===; Galactus' first Herald was the being now known simply as the Fallen One. Like the other Heralds that would follow him, the Fallen One was given a small fraction of the Power Cosmic; however, the Fallen One was too hostile and unpredictable for Galactus to control, so the Devourer of Worlds eventually imprisoned him. Over the millennia that followed, the Fallen One repeatedly escaped from his imprisonment and tried to fight Galactus, only to be defeated and imprisoned over and over again.; ===An Unknown Herald===; In A.D. 1582, an unidentified Herald accompanied Galactus when the Devourer of Worlds targeted Earth for the very first time, attacking the city of Rome. However, Earth was defended by Galileo Galilei and the Brotherhood of the Shield and, with help from Michelangelo, they warded off Galactus at the cost of two-thirds of the Brotherhood of the Shield. This was the birth of the "Greater Science."; clear; ===The Silver Surfer===; When Galactus threatened to consume the planet Zenn-La, one of its inhabitants, Norrin Radd, offered to become the Devourer of Worlds' servant if Galactus would spare his homeworld. Galactus agreed and imbued Radd with the Power Cosmic, transforming him into the Herald known as the Silver Surfer. As Galactus' new Herald, the Surfer was dedicated to finding uninhabited but energy-rich worlds for Galactus to consume.; The Silver Surfer served Galactus for many years, during which Galactus secretly altered the Surfer's mind and soul. With his emotions and memories repressed, the Surfer led Galactus to inhabited worlds without any guilt or remorse. When the Silver Surfer arrived on Earth, however, he encountered Alicia Masters, who sensed Radd's nobility and courage. Moved by Alicia, the Silver Surfer rebelled and joined forces with the Fantastic Four and Uatu the Watcher to drive Galactus away from Earth. Galactus punished the Silver Surfer for this betrayal by trapping Norrin Radd on Earth. Galactus would later reconsider this decision, but the Silver Surfer resisted Galactus' efforts to return to his service.; ===The Air-Walker===; Searching for a suitable replacement for the Silver Surfer, Galactus eventually chose Gabriel Lan, the Xandarian captain of the Way-Opener, an exploration vessel, to become his next Herald. A member of the Nova Corps, Lan was brave and prone to wanderlust. He did not refuse Galactus' offer of immense power and unlimited freedom to travel the universe under his own power. Galactus gave Lan the Power Cosmic, transforming him into the Air-Walker.; The Air-Walker served Galactus faithfully for years and even befriended the Devourer of Worlds. The Air-Walker eventually sacrificed himself to protect Galactus from a fleet of Ovoid warships. Galactus was weak from hunger and could not protect or resurrect Lan, but eventually managed to transfer his consciousness into an android duplicate of the Air-Walker. Unfortunately, Lan's personality and passion for exploration did not survive the process and the Air-Walker automaton was a hollow image of Galactus' former friend and ally. Frustrated, Galactus sent the Air-Walker automaton to Earth to convince the Silver Surfer to return to his role as Galactus' Herald, but the Air-Walker automaton was badly damaged in a subsequent battle with the Surfer and the Fantastic Four. Galactus abandoned the Air-Walker automaton on Earth.; ===Firelord===; Pyreus Kril was first officer aboard Gabriel Lan's Xandarian exploration vessel the Way-Opener and was present when his friend was kidnapped by the alien starship belonging to Galactus. Determined to rescue his captain, Kril took command of the exploration vessel and pursued Galactus' ship across the universe.; Years passed, but Kril did not give up his quest. Eventually, Kril located Galactus' starship and, unaware that Lan had already been slain battling the Ovoids, teleported aboard the massive vessel. Kril confronted Galactus and demanded that Lan be released. Impressed by the man’s courage, Galactus offered to reveal Lan's fate if Kril agreed to become his new Herald. Kril accepted the offer, receiving the Power Cosmic and becoming Firelord. Galactus told Kril of the Air-Walker's death and the apparent destruction of the Air-Walker automaton; however, he immediately altered Firelord's mind, suppressing the information that he had just imparted to his Herald.; Firelord's servitude to Galactus was short-lived, however. While on a mission to Earth, Firelord encountered Thor, who later negotiated with Galactus for Firelord's freedom. In exchange for releasing Firelord, Thor provided Galactus with an Asgardian construct known as the Destroyer. Although he retained the Power Cosmic and was free to roam the universe, Firelord's subconscious compelled him to remain on Earth, the last known location of the Air-Walker automaton.; Months later, the Machinesmith accidentally reactivated the Air-Walker automaton, and it gradually regained consciousness. The Air-Walker automaton set out to kill the Silver Surfer but was instead engaged by Thor, who destroyed its self-repair circuitry. Upon learning of the Air-Walker automaton's existence, Firelord's suppressed memories flooded back into him and he took possession of it. He buried the Air-Walker automaton – the only remains of his friend Gabriel Lan – on an asteroid in the Tranta System, near their homeworld of Xandar.; ===The Destroyer===; In exchange for Firelord's freedom, Galactus was given a new Herald by Thor: the Asgardian Destroyer, an incredibly powerful but mindless enchanted suit of armor that Galactus animated with the Power Cosmic. With no will of its own, the Destroyer armor was more subservient than the sentient Heralds that Galactus had previously employed. However, the Destroyer was soon stolen by Loki for one of his numerous schemes, and Galactus, instead of trying to reclaim it, began searching for another Herald instead.; ===Terrax the Tamer===; As Galactus' recent Heralds (the Silver Surfer, the Air-Walker, and Firelord) had been men of morality, which led to two of them leaving his service, Galactus hoped to find a ruthless, power-hungry being to be a new Herald who would have no qualms about identifying inhabited worlds for him to consume.; Galactus identified Tyros, the tyrannical dictator of the city of Lanlak on the planet Birj, as his next intended Herald. Tyros was already very powerful, as he had been born with a unique mutation that allowed him to animate stone. Galactus knew that he would need to first overpower Tyros before he could transform the despot into his new Herald. When the Fantastic Four came to Galactus for aid, he accepted their offer to help them defeat the Sphinx if they would in turn subdue Tyros. The quartet defeated Tyros as promised, and Galactus immediately brought Tyros under his cosmic control, forcibly imbuing him with the Power Cosmic. Thus, Tyros was reborn as Terrax the Tamer, whose complete control over stone allowed him to crush mountains and command thousands of meteors with ease.; As Galactus had hoped, Terrax had no concerns about guiding his master toward inhabited worlds; however, Terrax was also ambitious and had no sense of loyalty to Galactus. He eventually began conquering planets for his own selfish ends and only served Galactus out of fear. Seeking to kill his master, Terrax depleted Galactus' energy in a chase and fled to Earth, where he took Manhattan hostage and threatened to demolish the city unless the Fantastic Four helped him destroy the severely weakened and starved Galactus. In the ensuing battle, Galactus reclaimed the Power Cosmic that he had given to Terrax, something he had not done to any of his previous Heralds, and left Tyros for dead. Still, this was not enough to replenish Galactus and he was on the verge of death. Unwilling to let Galactus die, Reed Richards saved Galactus' life.; ===Nova===; Although Reed Richards had prevented Galactus from starving to death, Galactus was still critically low on energy. Reed then attempted to locate uninhabited nearby planets for him to consume, but Galactus did not have the energy to survive an extended journey if he went to a suggested planet and it was found unsuitable; thus, Galactus once again contemplated about consuming Earth.; As Galactus had just lost Terrax, Frankie Raye offered herself to be Galactus' new Herald and guide him to planets. Frankie was in a relationship with Johnny Storm at the time and had similar powers as him, but she also yearned for freedom and cosmic grandeur. Galactus was pleased with her selfish motivation, as his previous noble Heralds did not suit their role, and she was not savage like the most recent one, Terrax. Galactus accepted Frankie's proposal and she gleefully escaped into space, leaving Earth, her old mortal life, and Johnny Storm behind.; Willingly becoming Nova, Galactus' latest Herald, she used her powers to seek out energy-rich worlds for Galactus to consume, notably the Skrulls' throneworld, Tarnax IV. She also encountered and teamed up with the Silver Surfer (whom she nicknamed "Silverado") on many occasions and they began a (somewhat rocky) romantic relationship. However, in one of their adventures, the Silver Surfer tricked Nova into admitting that she would offer up her own planet, Earth, to Galactus and Nova began to reconsider her choices. When she finally broke down, she tried to hide an inhabited planet from Galactus. Disappointed, he dismissed Nova from his service and found a new Herald, Morg the Executioner, who would soon end up killing her in battle.; ===Morg the Executioner and the Herald Ordeal===; Galactus considered his past mistakes and recognized that he needed a Herald who was both merciless enough to lead Galactus to inhabited worlds without complications (like Terrax and unlike the other past Heralds) and pliable enough to remain loyal to his master (unlike Terrax). While consuming an unnamed planet, Galactus located Morg, a bloodthirsty court executioner. Evidently unconcerned with his planet's fate, Morg agreed to become Galactus' new Herald even after Galactus had devoured his homeworld. As with all past Heralds, Morg the Executioner received the Power Cosmic. He later increased his powers even further by immersing himself in the Well of Life, thereby becoming Galactus’ most powerful Herald yet.; Morg quickly proved that he was also far more vicious than any of the previous Heralds and brought out the worst in Galactus. The Silver Surfer, Firelord, and Nova realized that Morg would cause the death of untold billions and agreed to join forces against their successor. To this end, they combined their powers to resurrect the Air-Walker automaton. Desperate, they also recruited the evil Terrax. The former Heralds battled Morg and seemingly killed him, though Nova was slain by Morg. The Surfer flew Nova's body into a nearby sun.; After Morg's apparent demise, Galactus reluctantly accepted both Firelord and the Air-Walker automaton back into his service as his first pair of Heralds. During this time, Firelord tried to revive Gabriel Lan's personality, which was still buried deep within the Air-Walker automaton. However, Galactus secretly resurrected Morg due to the latter's loyalty. Despite this, Morg was kidnapped by Galactus' old foe and "son," Tyrant. Galactus agreed to let Tyrant keep Morg in exchange for a truce between the two ancient enemies. When Morg eventually escaped, he returned to Galactus and attempted to kill the duo of Heralds; the Silver Surfer arrived in time to save Firelord and the Air-Walker automaton. Tyrant confronted Galactus soon afterward, and Morg proved his undying loyalty to Galactus by attacking Tyrant with the Ultimate Nullifier; however, a blast from the Nullifier seemingly nullified both Morg and Galactus.; ===Red Shift===; Galactus survived the Ultimate Nullifier by escaping into another dimension, and later returned after consuming the power of Hyperstorm, a villain from an alternate timeline. After this ordeal, however, Galactus’ cosmic hunger only grew, nearly driving him insane. He became obsessed with consuming sentient life, but was yet again without a Herald. He quickly recruited Red Shift, a mysterious Herald about which very little is known, and planned to at last devour Earth. Sensing Red Shift’s use of the Power Cosmic, the Silver Surfer tried to convince the Herald that Earth should not be destroyed. Red Shift refused to listen to reason, and the two Heralds clashed. Red Shift used his powers to open a portal to a black hole, into which he hoped to send the Silver Surfer, but his plan went awry and both Heralds were swept into the trap. Their battle continued within the black hole until the Silver Surfer unleashed a massive explosion of cosmic energy. Red Shift lost his two swords – the weapons which enabled him to open his portals – and remained trapped in the black hole even after the Surfer barely escaped from it.; ===Johnny Storm===; Sometime after Red Shift's battle with the Silver Surfer, a federation of aliens from various worlds that had been consumed by Galactus arrived on Earth. These aliens had created a technology that could cloak and conceal other planets from the Devourer of Worlds. However, they feared that Sue Storm, the Invisible Woman, would become a pawn of Galactus, who would use her powers to make their devices useless. In an attempt to prevent this, the aliens planned to kill Sue, and they threatened to destroy Manhattan unless she was surrendered to them. To save his wife, Reed Richards, Mister Fantastic, used one of his own inventions to seemingly strip Sue of her powers. Convinced that Sue was no longer a threat, the aliens departed; however, it was soon revealed that Reed had really used his device to switch powers between Sue and her brother, Johnny Storm. Thus, Sue gained Johnny's flame powers, becoming the Human Torch, and Johnny gained Sue's invisibility powers.; Galactus, already intent on using Sue's powers to thwart the alien federation anyway, arrived on Earth soon after Johnny’s transformation. Discovering the switch immediately, Galactus then kidnapped Johnny and infused him with the Power Cosmic, making Johnny his latest Herald. Although Johnny was initially overwhelmed by his new powers, he began seeking an uninhabited world for Galactus to consume while secretly rallying other worlds against Galactus. His delaying tactics allowed the Fantastic Four and Quasar to eventually catch up to Johnny. Using his new powers, Johnny analyzed Galactus and instructed Reed and Quasar in the construction of a device that removed Galactus’ cosmic energy. Galactus then temporarily reverted to his original form – that of the powerless Galan – and was brought to Earth. There, Galan exiled himself into an energy-rich dimension.; ===Stardust===; Galan somehow eventually reverted back into Galactus again and – for reasons of his own – left his self-imposed exile and returned to his home dimension. Again he sought a Herald, this time choosing a mysterious entity named Lambda-Zero as the recipient of the Power Cosmic, who was then named Stardust. Although very little is known about Stardust’s history prior to her becoming Galactus’ Herald, she claims that she was already quite powerful even before meeting her new master. What is known is that Stardust quickly became the most fanatical of Galactus’ Heralds, worshipping her master as if he were a god. Her fanaticism led her to not only seek out new worlds for Galactus, but also hunt down any survivors of said worlds that were consumed by Galactus so that no trace of these civilizations would be left alive.; While hunting down the last of the Korbinite race, Stardust clashed with their protector, Beta Ray Bill. During this battle, Stardust used her powers to open a dimensional gateway that she hoped would consume Beta Ray and the last of the Korbinites. Instead, Stardust unwittingly released a demonic entity from a “cosmic Hell” known as Asteroth. Realizing that Asteroth threatened the entire universe, Beta Ray and Stardust reluctantly joined forces to stop her. Meanwhile, Galactus revived Beta Ray’s predecessor – Alpha Ray – and ordered him to find Stardust and Beta Ray.; To banish Asteroth, Stardust created a massive black hole. Alpha Ray arrived as the black hole was opening, and he drove Asteroth back into the rift. Both Alpha Ray and Stardust were also sucked into the void, but Stardust soon escaped and returned to Galactus’ service.; ===Annihilation===; Shortly after Stardust escaped from her black hole, the universe faced a major threat in the form of an insectoid armada led by Annihilus. Dubbed the Annihilation Wave, the armada began destroying every planet in its path as it made its way towards Earth. Across the universe, cosmic heroes and alien fleets began joining forces to combat the Annihilation Wave, but all seemed to be doomed to failure.; The Annihilation Wave had a profound impact on all of Galactus’ former Heralds. The first to encounter the Wave was the Air-Walker automaton which, by now, had regained much of its former identity as Gabriel Lan. Sadly, the Air-Walker automaton was destroyed during an attack on its homeworld of Xandar by a villain named Ravenous and his fellow Seekers. Without his stalwart partner, Firelord teamed up with Red Shift, who had recently escaped from his own black hole. When Galactus realized the danger posed by the Annihilation Wave, he ordered Stardust to combine forces with his two former Heralds. Meanwhile, Annihilus – intent on studying the Power Cosmic – captured both Morg the Executioner and Terrax the Tamer. Finally, in the chaos of the Annihilation Wave's events, the Fallen One escaped once again and joined forces with the two surviving Proemial Gods, "Tenebrous of the Darkness Between" and "Aegis, Lady of All Sorrows", both also ancient enemies of Galactus.; During the war with Annihilus and his armada, events referred to as Annihilation, Galactus took the Silver Surfer as his Herald once more. The Surfer led Firelord, Red Shift, and Stardust in battle against the Annihilation Wave. Stardust and Red Shift later sacrificed themselves to allow Nova (Richard Rider) and his forces time to evacuate Daedalus 5.; ===Hunger===; Following Galactus' arrival at the universe of Earth-1610, the cosmic entity was merged with Gah Lak Tus and used portions of the collective of machines to fulfill the purpose of his Heralds.; ===The Anti-Man===; Sometime after Galactus' transformation into the Lifebringer, he turned Conner Sims, a.k.a. the Anti-Man, into his Herald of Life, who sacrificed his life to restore Galactus into being the Lifebringer after Logos greatly increased his cosmic hunger.; ===Starbrand Reborn===; Taking notice of the destruction that was happening in the Ravenstarr Maximum-Security Prison Galaxy, the Silver Surfer saw that the Starbrand had resurfaced. He recruited the help of both Firelord and Terrax the Tamer in tracking down the new holder of the Starbrand and keep it from causing any more devastation. In their search for the new Starbrand, the Heralds faced the Avengers, as they intended to kill the new holder, whereas the heroes wanted to solve things without having to resort to violence.; They then finally met the new Starbrand, a pregnant human woman named Suzanne Selby, and, seeing that the life of a child was at stake, the Silver Surfer abandoned his plan to kill her. This revelation did not dissuade the other Heralds from eliminating the threat, leading to both the Surfer and the Avengers fighting them. The fight bought Suzanne enough time to give birth to her daughter, who came to inherit the Starbrand and whose birth calmed the Heralds. Now believing that they had gathered for a different reason, the three Heralds decided to give the newborn girl gifts: Terrax giving her life in the form of sparing her, Firelord giving her time by allowing her to grow and the Surfer giving both her and the Avengers hope.; ===Thor===; When the Black Winter returned, Galactus appointed Thor to be his Herald to search for five special planets that might give him the power to stand up to the Black Winter. Thor begrudgingly fulfilled this task, but even with this power, Galactus was not powerful enough to defeat the Black Winter. Using the Power Cosmic, Thor detonated Galactus inside the Black Winter, destroying them both.; ===The Reckoning War===; Because the universe was being threatened by the Reckoning, many of Galactus' former Heralds, including Thor and the Destroyer, gathered on Asgard where Galactus' corpse was being used as an entrance to the realm. The Destroyer merged with Galactus' corpse, resurrecting Galactus as a mindless fusion called the Destruction.; The Silver Surfer escorted the Destruction to the Watchers' homeworld, Planet T-37X, which the cosmic being then destroyed as the Reckoning tried to claim the Apex of All Reality. Following the defeat of the Reckoning, the Heralds stalled the Destruction's advance to buy the Watchers enough time to completely evacuate from their crumbling homeworld. The Silver Surfer also fed the Destruction the Reckoning's exploding M'kraan Armor, made from a fragment of the M'kraan Crystal. The energy from the explosion completely restored Galactus and separated him from the Destroyer. Galactus seemingly lost his cosmic hunger, and with a new hunger for knowledge, he asked the Silver Surfer to become his companion.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: X-Men Training Squad
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Xavier Institute, Salem Center, Westchester County, New York
+Notes: The squad’s colors were red and white with black accents.; Two members of this squad could did not wear the common uniform: Wither had to wear non-organic blends of clothing and Dust always wears her niqab.; Before the squads were officially formed, Emma Frost's advisees included Hellion, Mercury, Rockslide, Tag, and Specter. For unknown reasons, Specter switched advisors to Wolfsbane and then finally switched to Cyclops.; The squad was named after the original Hellions to which their adviser, Emma Frost, was the teacher.
+History:
+===Origin===; With an increasing number in the student body, Cyclops & Emma Frost reorganized the Xavier Institute's educational and training program. The Hellions Squad was advised by Emma Frost.; ===Academy X===; Even before their official formation, New Mutants Squad and the Hellions Squad were at odds with each other. The two squads became intensely competitive during Field Day events. This rivalry came to a head when Wither was arrested by the F.B.I.. The Hellions went to take on the F.B.I. and free Wither, and the New Mutants went to stop them from fighting the government. The X-Men intervened before any damage was done, but Wither and Icarus switched teams because of the event.; Wither continued to clash with Elixir (primarily over Laurie's affections). During the semester, Wither discovered Elixir had had a brief affair with a professor, Wolfsbane. He informed the entire school, successfully ending Josh's relationship with Laurie and terminating Wolfsbane's employment.; The Hellions won first place in the Field Day Events at the Xavier Institute.; ===Summer Vacation===; During the summer break, the Hellions Squad accompanied Julian Keller to his family's home in California. There, they were contacted by the Kingmaker, who gave them several extraordinary gifts in exchange for a favor. The favor turned out to be robbery. Seeing the error in their ways, the Hellions later took on Kingmaker and defeated him.; ===M-Day===; After M-Day only 27 of 182 enrolled Xavier's students retained their powers. The New Mutants Squad was disbanded along with all the other X-Men Training Squads. Several squad members, who retained their powers, were inducted into the New X-Men.; ==Notable Members==; Dust - Sooraya Qadir is a shy girl from Afghanistan who can turn herself into a living whirlwind of dust.

+First appearance: Paradise X: Heralds Vol 1 1
+Created by: Jim Krueger; Alex Ross
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Formed by X-51 to warn alternate realities of the Celestial embryo growing in each alternate Earth's core.
+Reality: Earth-9997
+Base of operations: Watcher's Citadel, The Moon
+Equipment: While on their original mission, each pair had a device that they were to give to Reed Richards that explained their mission. X-51 often used the devices in Uatu's citadel to monitor and collect the information required by each Herald in order to fulfill his promises to them.
+Weapons: Each Herald had their own unique weaponry; see individual entries for more information
+Transportation: The Heralds were able to transport themselves to other locations and alternate realities through the portal system at Uatu's citadel on the Moon. These portals were able to transport its travelers anywhere they desired. Limitations to transportation, if any, are unknown.
+History:
+The Heralds were a group of disparate superhumans from various realities brought together by X-51, the Watchman of Earth-9997. Having discovered the Celestial embryo within his own reality's Earth, X-51 soon realized that every alternate Earth was also imbued with a Celestial embryo.; He recruited the Heralds to help him warn alternate realities, promising each of them their deepest desire in return. The Heralds were composed of Hyperion, who wished to find a way to die; Killraven, who wished to save his world from Martian invaders; Deathlok, who wished to be freed from the computer he had been bonded with, Arno Stark, who wished to escape the sins of his past; Wolverine, who wished to learn the truth of his origins; Spider-Girl, who wished to meet the man her father had been cloned from; and Bloodstorm, who wished to be cured of her vampirism.; X-51 sent the Heralds in pairs to various other realities, with the goal of finding each reality's version of Mister Fantastic, believing that he would be smart enough to kill the embryo. These initial excursions were largely unsuccessful, as the realities that the Heralds visited were either hostile or indifferent to removing the embryo, or in one case had already done so.; Upon their return to Earth-9997, they found that the Watchers had come to execute Uatu of Earth-9997 for failing to defend the Celestial embryo in his charge. The Heralds managed to rescue Uatu and teleported the Watchers to every Earth under their care, thus revealing their presence and sowing the seeds of their Celestial embryo's destruction.; Satisfied, X-51 transported the Heralds to Earth, telling them that they would find what they sought there. May Parker tracked down the man she sought: Peter Parker, who worked as a policeman in New York City. Bloodstorm was able to find her Earth-9997 counterpart, who agreed to a blood transfusion, which might be the key to curing her vampirism. Killraven encountered the Guardians of the Galaxy, who also came from an alternate future where Earth had been invaded by Mars, but wherein the Earth had won. Arno returned to the Guardians' future to help them in their battle against the Badoon and to give himself a fresh start. X-51 aided Wolverine in finding the truth behind his past: that he was not a mutant, but one of few true humans, who had not been manipulated by the Celestials. X-51 promised to use a device to create a new body for Deathlok, freeing him from his cybernetic augmentations.; Finally, Hyperion was able to receive the death he sought after entering Mar-Vell's Paradise.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Notes: As with their Prime Universe counterparts, each Herald is associated with one of the four classical elements: Air-Walker with air, Firelord with fire, Plasma with water, and Terrax with earth. Though the Prime Silver Surfer was also associated with water, here he may be thought of as representing aether, occasionally considered a fifth element.; As the Fantastic Four are also connected with the four elements, they are each considered to have an equivalent or "corollary" among the Heralds, with Mr. Fantastic's being Plasma.
+History:
+After the Silver Surfer's first encounter with the Fantastic Four, Terrax came to Earth in order to eliminate the cosmically-empowered beings he saw as a potential obstacles to their master Galactus, but the other Heralds Firelord and Plasma arrived to collect their "brother" so that they could begin the process of harvesting the planet. Each Herald was tasked with placing one of Galactus' bio-spheric energy capacitors: Firelord and Plasma established theirs near Attilan and on Monster Island, respectively, but were stopped by the Inhumans and Avengers, and Thor destroyed the Surfer's device in New York City; however Air-Walker's stealthy placement of a capacitor on Antarctica allowed the process of harvesting to begin.; After Doctor Doom's time travel to prevent Earth's destruction, the capacitors' locations were seemingly changed: this time the Surfer traveled to Moscow, where his capacitor was destroyed by the Fantastic Four; Plasma set up a capacitor in Los Angeles, which was destroyed by the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier; Firelord instead traveled to Antarctica but was thwarted by the Hulk, Scarlet Witch and Vision; and Terrax established his capacitor in Hong Kong, only for it to be destroyed by the remaining Avengers; each resulting in many casualties. Airwalker informed the survivors that the destruction of all four capacitors had in fact proven that their world was ready for harvesting, however, and the capacitors reformed in new locations and began again their task. Though the Avengers sacrificed the Earth in a gravity warp that engulfed the solar system, including Galactus, Doom once again traveled back in time to save his planet.; This time, the Fantastic Four identified and intercepted the Heralds before their arrival on the planet, but were each killed in the struggle - Terrax killing the Thing, Firelord the Human Torch, Plasma Mr. Fantastic and Air-Walker the Invisible Woman. Continuing on to Attilan, Terrax was able to kill Black Bolt before being taken down by Thor and She-Hulk, while the Wasp joined the Scarlet Witch and Vision in freezing Plasma in Antarctica and Captain America took Doc Samson and Hawkeye helped Namor beat Firelord on Monster Island. Still, this was not enough, and Doom altered the timeline once more.; In this final timeline, the Heralds were put down quickly, with Thor and the Hulk trouncing Terrax, Scarlet Witch and the Vision taking down Firelord, and Iron Man and Hawkeye putting an end to Plasma. Still, this was not enough to defeat Galactus for good, and the Silver Surfer eventually sacrificed himself, with the Avengers' help, to overload Galactus' own energy conversion.

+Full name: Hellions
+Other aliases: Mister Sinister's "Hellions"
+First appearance: Hellions Vol 1 1
+Created by: Zeb Wells; Stephen Segovia
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: A group of outcast mutants working under the leadership of Mister Sinister
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Bar Sinister, Krakoa, Pacific Ocean
+History:
+===Snakes in Paradise===; After the establishment of the nation of Krakoa, all mutants were granted Krakoan citizenship and welcomed on the island. Though most Krakoan mutants rapidly adapted to life in this exclusively mutant society, some proved to be problematic cases to Krakoan authorities. Empath, Orphan-Maker, Nanny, Wild Child, Greycrow, and Havok were mutants considered by the Quiet Council of Krakoa to be dangers to themselves and others, as they either refused or were unable to temper their murderous tendencies. To solve the problem these mutants posed, Mister Sinister proposed to assign them to a special group in order to channel their unstable personalities into something productive to Krakoan interests, a group that was to be under his control. Psylocke was invited by Cyclops to act as a watchdog for the team, since her powers, personality, and training were considered adequate to handle the group. Unbeknownst to most, Psylocke was indebted to Sinister, who had saved a copy of her dead daughter's conciousness. Using the copy as a bargaining chip, Sinister was able to steer the team through Psylocke.; For their first mission, Sinister charged the group with destroying his former orphanage, which was a cover for a still active Marauders cloning farm. When the Hellions arrived, Greycrow immediately killed Empath for abusing his powers against his teammates. The Hellions were then quickly ambushed by the zombified Marauders and their new mistress: Madelyne Pryor, the Goblin Queen. She planned to use the Marauder clones as vessels for her demonic servants, and to launch an invasion of Krakoa as revenge for being denied an invitation to the island. The Hellions were swiftly defeated, and all except for Psylocke and Wild Child were captured, with Havok personally tortured by Madelyne. With his animalistic powers seizing hold of him, Wild Child attacked a wounded Psylocke. Psylocke subdued him, earning her his unquestioned obedience as the "alpha" of the group. Psylocke then managed to free her fellow Hellions. Greycrow shot Madelyne dead and killed the zombified Marauders. Despite Havok's pleas for leniency, the Council refused to resurrect Madelyne and grant her a place on Krakoa.; ===Vile Affairs===; During a tournament conceived to solve the conflict between Krakoa and the fallen mutant nation Arakko in Otherworld, the Hellions, led by Sinister, were tasked with averting the tournament by infiltrating Arakko and forcing them intro a forfeit. After a long and hard journey through Otherworld, they made their way to Amenth and encountered the Arakkii mutant Tarn the Uncaring and his Locus Vile. Tarn revealed to them that they were too late as the tournament was already well under way. They realized that Sinister had misled them and had in fact come to Arakko to steal the genetic material of its mutants. After Sinister stole samples of Tarn and his Locus, they began murdering the Hellions. Sinister (who was in fact a clone) charged Psylocke with ensuring that the genetic material made it back to Krakoa. Psylocke and the surviving Hellions Havok, Greycrow and Empath found their way back, only to be immediately murdered by Mr. Sinister, who wished to hide his true reasons for going to Arakko. THe Hellions were resurrected without any memories of what had transpired in Arakko.; As a result of his mutant power, Orphan-Maker required a suit that suppressed his gift to allow him to function normally. The suit could only be made by Nanny's Ship, in possession of the mutant-hating organization the Right. The Hellions succeeded in entering the Right's base, fighting an android copy of Cameron Hodge and his army of mutant-hunting robots. Empath tricked the robotic Hodge into ordering his own machines to fire on him to prove he was human, which led to his destruction. Infected with the techno-organic virus, the machines developed an evolving A.I. and expressed gratitude to the Hellions for being released from Hodge. However, Psylocke received orders from the Quiet Council to upload a hostile virus that deactivated the machines. Unbeknownst to the others, Nanny had saved an "infant" robot and took it with her to Krakoa.; Next, Mister Sinister went missing during a meeting with Mastermind, prompting the Hellions to search for him. Mastermind used his powers of illusion to disable them, revealing that Mister Sinister, and now they, had been captured by Arcade. Keeping Mastermind's daughter hostage, Arcade forced him to trap the Hellions in traumatizing illusions in his Murderworld. Arcade's plan was to blackmail Sinister into creating a clone farm for his use. Psylocke was able to gradually dissolve Mastermind's illusions and reassemble the Hellions. After the Hellions broke free, Mister Sinister emerged and explained that he and Mastermind had planned this together to seize Arcade's Murderworld. This way, Sinister had acquired a base not known by the Quiet Council. In order to ensure Psylocke's compliance, Sinister moved her daughter's consciousness to the new facility, tying her fate to that of the clone farm. Mastermind used his powers to make the other Hellions believe they had rescued Sinister in a blaze of glory, leaving Psylocke the only one aware of the truth.; When Krakoa celebrated mutantkind's new advanced position in the Hellfire Gala, Mister Sinister, Psylocke, and Havok were invited, but the rest of the Hellions were not, which led them to crash the party and cause a brawl before they were kicked out. After the celebration, the Sinister clone left in Amenth returned to confront the original. Mister Sinister summoned his Hellions to learn that the clone had been sent by Tarn in retaliation for the Hellions' theft of his genetic material. The Locus Vile arrived to fight the Hellions, and were soon followed by Tarn who easily incapacitated them and revealed to the Hellions the truth about their return from Arakko. Before the Hellions could turn on their leader, Mister Sinister activated his frozen clones, unleashing them on Tarn and the Vile. He managed to convince his erstwhile clone to come with him to Murderworld, ordering the betrayed Hellions to stay and distract Tarn.; Tarn and the Vile made quick work of the clones and the Hellions, leading Psylocke to bargain: if Tarn would spare the Hellions' lives, she would tell him where Sinister was. Upon gleaning the information, an enraged Tarn teleported away to confront Sinister. Psylocke confessed to the other Hellions she had known of Sinister's manipulations all along. Enraged, Greycrow murdered two of the Vile and fed one of them, Amino Fetus, which triggered his universe-destroying abilities. Tarn was forced to teleport back in order to save all of creation from Amino Fetus. In Murderworld, the Hellions stumbled upon Sinister's hidden secret; a chimera of Mister Sinister and Tarn, granting him access to Tarn's godlike abilities. They initially wished to destroy the facility, but Psylocke confessed that Sinister had her daughter stored there. While the Hellions stood down, Empath revealed himself to be a mole for the Quiet Council member Emma Frost, bringing out Havok's murderous alter-ego and prompting him to obliterate the laboratories, destroying all of Sinister's experiments, including Psylocke's daughter and the chimera.; ===Fall of the Hellions===; Rescued by the X-Men, the Hellions quickly fell apart. A haunted Psylocke decided to leave Krakoa and dismiss Wild Child; Greycrow planned to kill Empath once and for all for his treachery; Havok was distraught over having inadvertently killed Psylocke's child; and Nanny rejected Orphan-Maker, lashing out at him after the Right kidnapped her robot baby. Desperate for approval, Orphan-Maker went off on his own to go rescue the baby. As a Great Captain of Krakoa, Psylocke gathered the Hellions, except for Empath, for one last mission to go after their friend. After storming the base, Orphan-Maker rescued the baby, only for it to kill Nanny as its mutant-hating code activated. Blinded by rage, the heartbroken Orphan-Maker went on a rampage and killed all of the Right scientists and soldiers he came across, including two innocent park rangers who had stumbled upon the scene and attempted to pacify Orphan-Maker. The Hellions found him surrounded by the corpses and begging for forgiveness.; Since killing humans broke one of the cardinal laws of Krakoa, the X-Men interevened. A potential battle with the Hellions was prevented thanks to Empath, and the issue was brought to the Quiet Council. Their former patron Mister Sinister argued that they should all be exiled to the Pit but the Hellions and Nightcrawler tried to argue in Orphan-Maker's defense. Despite this, the Council judged him guilty. Nanny demanded to be exiled with him, threatening to kill as many humans as it would take to have her request granted. The team then went their separate ways. Empath tried to rejoin his original Hellions teammates, but was rejected and realized he had alienated the closest thing to friends he had ever had; Psylocke talked Greycrow out of killing Empath, prompting him to confess his feelings for her, with the two remaining on the island as a couple; Wild Child agreed to take medications to control his animal side; and Havok was rewarded for his part in stopping Mister Sinister with the resurrection of Madelyne Pryor, who was allowed to be part of Krakoa.

+History:
+The former Heralds of Galactus - Silver Surfer, Firelord, Terrax, and Nova (Frankie Raye) - named themselves the Fallen Heralds and decided to strike at their former master, whom they deemed to have gone mad. On their way, they encountered Galactus' newest Herald, Moon Knight. Believing that he stood in their way, they unleashed their powers against him at once, with Frankie Raye being the only one who tried to reach out to their friend. Moon Knight defended himself, realizing that he exhibited different powers depending on which of his personalities was in charge. Holding his on against four Heralds at once, Moon Knight nevertheless became overwhelmed and decided to retreat from battle. Frankie Raye pursued him, calling out that doing Galactus' bidding and dooming billions to die was wrong. Moon Knight got away from her, though he agreed with what she was saying.; Moon Knight returned to Earth, where Galactus had already decimated all of the planet's defenders and now prepared to consume what was left of the it. The Fallen Heralds arrived and challenged Galactus, who easily killed Surfer, Firelord, and Terrax, with only Frankie Raye left alive. Moon Knight combined all of his personalities and struck at Galactus with all of his powers at once. Though it did not injure the World Devourer, it irritated him enough to convince him to abandon Earth and seek more sustenance and Heralds elsewhere. Before departing, Galactus stripped Moon Knight of his Power Cosmic. Marc collapsed into Frankie Raye's arms, seemingly dead, only to immediately open his eyes again, as his work was not done.

+History:
+===Origins===; During the Civil War; Misty Knight and Colleen Wing were contacted by Iron Man, Reed Richards, and Spider-Man to reform Heroes for Hire in order to track down superhumans refusing to comply with the Superhuman Registration Act. Initially hesitant, the pair eventually created a team including Shang-Chi, Humbug, Orka, Black Cat, Paladin, and a new Tarantula. After the murder of Goliath in battle, they made plans to take on Captain America.; After learning Captain America's location from a Pixiu, the team (minus Orka and Tarantula) tracked him down. While Misty and the team just wanted to talk and find a peaceful solution, they were betrayed by Paladin. Paladin disabled the team with knock-out gas and attempted to capture Captain America. Shang-Chi's martial arts training had allowed him to hold his breath long enough to avoid the effects of the gas. Shang-Chi defeated Paladin and switched his uniform with Captain America. When S.H.I.E.L.D. arrived, Paladin was unintentionally taken into custody.; Shortly thereafter, Captain America and the Heroes For Hire parted ways, and the Secret Avengers abandon their now-compromised base. Meanwhile, the Heroes For Hire discovered a black-market operation that surgically implanted superhumans with Skrull organs that would endow those who had the operation with Skrull-shapeshifting abilities. Several of these hybrid Skrull-villains busted Misty Knight's old foe Ricadonna from prison. Ricadonna destroyed the Heroes' headquarters by sending an explosive package, and put hits out on the entire team. Most notable of these were Insecticide (the hitman sent to kill Humbug — Humbug neutralized him with help from his pet killer bees), Shadowstalker (an old foe of Shang Chi sent to kill him--Shang Chi quickly humiliated him), and the gang of ninjas that attacked Tarantula when she was with her father. After they murdered her father, Tarantula killed the entire gang herself. The team split up in search of Ricadonna — while Misty Knight and Colleen Wing tried to shake up the Toddler for information, Humbug used his flies to discover Ricadonna's base--and also that she had somehow gained superpowers. This led to a fight against Ricadonna who's Skrull organ business they stopped and who they believed they had killed.; Heroes For Hire were then paid to locate and put a stop to the Death Cadre, a dangerous group of thieves who had been using advanced exoskeletons to aid in their robberies, with no regard for the collateral damage or death they left in their wake. The investigation led them to stop a plot to destroy the Statue of Liberty as part of a plan by Grim Reaper to set himself up as an untraceable terrorist for hire. While they were on this investigation Humbug was held captive by the Headmen, when some of the team arrived to rescue them Orka was killed by a Doombot.; The team disbanded after the events of World War Hulk resulted in the death of Humbug, and with many members leaving due to conflicting opinions on how the team should work.; After being kidnapped and held prisoner by Puppet Master following a false pregnancy, Misty was forced to act as a liaison for a new, loose-knit Heroes for Hire, employing Moon Knight, Falcon, Black Widow, Silver Sable, and Ghost Rider in various missions to stop a drug cartel pushing the Atlantean-manufactured drug Hook, before being rescued by Paladin and ex-boyfriend Iron Fist. Following her release, she and Paladin officially restarted Heroes for Hire, briefly employing Spider-Man in their first mission against Batroc and his Brigade.; Clear

+History:
+Heroes For Hire, Inc. was a small business licensed by the state of New York which offered a full line of professional investigation and protection services. Heroes For Hire was owned by Luke Cage and Daniel Rand. It had offices on Park Avenue and two paid employees, secretary Jennie Royce and lawyer/business representative, Jeryn Hogarth. Heroes For Hire would not accept jobs involving extralegal activities.; ===Origin===; They first met at a party held by Jeryn celebrating Luke Cage's exoneration of all charges they were attacked by Stiletto and Discus teaming up to take them down. Cage's efforts led to a fight with Iron Fist, however, upon learning of Cage's situation, Danny later helped him defeat Nightshade. Cleared of criminal charges, they briefly worked for Misty Knight's detective agency Nightwing Restorations but soon elected to become a two-man team, "Heroes for Hire". Although the streetwise Cage and the unworldly Iron Fist seemed to have little in common, they soon became the best of friends.; Danny visited Joy Meachum and relinquished control of his share of Rand-Meachum Inc. to her until such a time that he believed he's earned the wealth from the company. Their first official mission as a team was against the Incinerator who tried to rob Manhattan National Bank. They took him down easily using the sprinkler system, then Cage just knocked him out. They next attended a local car show to advertise the business, which Cage found boring until it was attacked by the Bull and his thugs. Their mission was to steal the Fantasti-Car which was on display at the show. The duo took out the thugs with little effort.; ===Living Monolith===; The were hired by Ahmet Abdol and Professor Merridew to protect an exhibit of ancient Egyptian artifacts on display at the Metropolitan Museum. Señor Suerte tried to rob the museum and they initially stopped him but the artifacts they recovered were revealed to be fakes. Teaming up with Lt. Rafael Scarfe of the N.Y.P.D. they followed a lead and ended up at the apartment of Ahmet Abdol who was revealed to be the "Living Monolith". The Monolith then began a rampage on the city and the pair teamed up with Misty, Colleen Wing and the X-Men to stop him. They learned that he was empowered by the Cheops Crystal, which was stealing life energy from people. They freed the imprisoned people and the Monolith returned to normal.; ===El Aguila===; The duo tried to take down El Aguila, a "hero for the underprivileged", who was taking on drug dealers and crime lords with a sword. J.P. Preston, the owner of the London Street Property Owners Association (who owned local slum housing), hired the team to stop El Aguila, who had been robbing his offices. They reluctantly accepted and when they confronted El Aguila, Preston tried to shoot him but Cage got in the way and he escaped. Preston screamed at them to stop him but they reminded him that they got paid a retainer regardless of success or failure and that since it was after 5:00 their shift was over and they left.; ===Manhattan Bomber===; The incident with J.P. Preston gave them bad press appearing in an article in the Daily Bugle. Danny was injured in an explosion and Alan Cavenaugh was the main suspect. He was taken to the police under suspicion that he was the "Manhattan Bomber" because of Cavenaugh's past ties with the IRA. They were hired by the ambassador to Halwan, who offered them $1000 to determine who the bomber was. During the investigation they proved his innocence and Alan helped them find the bomb before it blew up the embassy.; ===Maggia===; Big Ben Donovan came to them for help after being attacked by goons of the Maggia. However they were led by Man Mountain Marko who knocked Cage into some exposed electrical wire. Thunderbolt was also following Donavan as a suspect in a murder case and believed Iron Fist was just another thug but after a brief battle they realized their mistake. Cage and Donovan were taken to Caesar Cicero, who wanted to know the location of the stolen drugs. They tracked down Cicero's penthouse, but Cage was taken to a graveyard to be buried alive. They found the grave and rescued their friend, but Donovan revealed that he kept the drugs for himself and ordered the hit on Thunderbolt's brother. Having found his brother's killer, Thunderbolt died happy, leaving them to turn in Donovan.; ===Señor Suerte/Señor Muerte===; They smashed up a number of Señor Suerte's gambling operations, who now wanted revenge for the death of his brother. This gained them a lot of popularity regarding their latest case. Suerte placed a bomb in the Gem Theater, destroying the building and injuring D.W. Griffith. The heroes tracked down Señor Suerte and Señor Muerte and as they were arrested they swore to get revenge.; ===Visit to Canada===; The team was called to Canada where they visited Jeryn's private office. He brought them there as women on his staff may have been stealing the various assets that are kept at the Aerie. When El Aguila arrived to attack the Aerie, he ultimately ends up teaming up with the Heroes for Hire, and exposing a number of Jeryn's support staff who are responsible.; ===Sabretooth & Constrictor===; When Misty and Colleen were injured in a fight against Sabretooth and the Constrictor, they asked the Heroes for Hire for help. They took down the criminals and rescued Misty whose bionic arm was trapped in a vault.; ===Bushmaster===; Luke was kidnapped when they were breaking up a bank robbery. They later found out he was captured by his old foe Bushmaster. He wanted Dr. Noah Burstein to reverse the process that slowly rends him immobile. He did this by holding his wife hostage. Danny tracked him to his lab on a ship. Danny freed Luke, and before Bushmaster could push the button to signal to his men to kill Noah's wife, he became totally inert. As Bushmaster's body crumbled into a skeleton the others escaped. After the incident Luke had lost his super-powers. But they still needed to rescue Emma Burstein, but in his weakened state Luke was left back at the office to recover. Dr. Arthur Nagan came after Luke for revenge after his defeat by him and the Defenders. Luke escaped to find his friends, but Nagan followed. During a fight Luke is knocked into the electric fence. However, instead of killing him the electricity restores his super-powers, allowing to take down Nagan with ease.; <!--; ===Colonel Eschat===; Nathaniel Turner, a former soldier of fortune, came to the Heroes for Hire for protection. They were all targeted by Colonel Eschat, who was seeking to kill them so that he cannot be identified. When all are dead, Eschat went after the real target he was hired to kill: District Attorney Blake Tower, however they arrived just in time to save him.-->; ===Supremo===; They were hired by El Supremo, the leader of Terranueva, to stop a drug operation. But during the investigation they learn he is a dictator and running the drug operations himself. With the help of the locals they overthrew the despot leader.; <!--; ===Montenegro===; Montenegro and Luke originally crossed paths when Cage took a quarter that belonged to Montenegro. The quarter contained within it an experimental micro-chip.; ===Golden Tigers===; William Hao asked them for help against the Golden Tigers led by Chaka. Danny enrolled in a number of marital arts classes to try and see if one of the teachers is really Chaka. After one class Danny was attacked and Chaka identity as Thomas Arn a teacher at one of the martial arts schools was revealed.; ===Dire Wraiths===; ROM the Spaceknight has come to Earth in search of Dire Wraiths. Solace the Heroes for Hire to find Rom. but after a brief fight the truth of the Dire Wraiths is revealed helping the hero on his mission. -->; ===Master Khan===; The Ninja stole the Amulets of Power worn by the Sons of the Tiger, beating Bob Diamond half to death in the process. Luke and Danny went to check on their friend in hospital where the learn Master Khan had sent the Ninja to recover the Amulets. However when they find the antique shop he is hiding in he releases a mystical Jade Tiger. He leapt on it's back as it took him through a portal. They follow and found themselves in K'un-Lun. They help them against an attack from the plant like H'ylthri. Danny is attacked by Yu-Ti and taken to be sacrificed to Master Khan. Lei-Kung and Luke came to his rescue. Khan opened a portal back to Earth, but before they leave, Iron Fist destroys the crystal that works as a bridge between the two realms.; <!-- ===Other Missions===; They earned an an international reputation and fighting a wide variety of criminals, including WarhawkNinotchka. The Slasher, The Dredlox. However a few of these came back for revenge such as Montenegro, Ninotchka, Warhawk, Sabretooth and Constrictor; They continued on against; Mole Man, Goldeneye, Commodore Planet Scimitar, Black Mariah Major Hawkins, Unus the Untouchable and Stoneface -->; ===Hammerhead===; Man Mountain Marko was sent to free Hammerhead from a prison transport protected by the Heroes for Hire.

Luke refused and Captain Hero eventually knocked Luke through a building which fell on top of him. Luke recovered but swore revenge. Dr. West approached them and explained Captain Hero was actually a small child who was exposed to alien radiation and gained great power. They took him down and he was sent to Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. for treatment.; ===Disbandment===; Their partnership's downfall began when the mysterious government agency S.M.I.L.E. manipulated Cage and Iron Fist into the employment of Consolidated Conglomerates, Inc.. During their first CCI assignment, Iron Fist contracted radiation poisoning. Cage took him to K'un-Lun for treatment.; While there, Iron Fist was, unknown to Cage, replaced by a doppelgänger of the plantlike H'ylthri race, K'un-Lun's ancient enemies. Luke did not suspect anything, putting "Danny"'s strange behavior down to recovering from his poisoning. Soon after their return to the outside world, the doppelgänger was destroyed, pummelled by the alien Super-Skrull, as a result of a bizarre scheme engineered by Iron Fist's archenemy, Master Khan. Cage was blamed for the apparent murder of Iron Fist.; <!-- ===Oracle Inc. Team===; As a consequence of Onslaught's apparent apparent massacre of several heroes, New York suffered a power vacuum.

They later recruited Ava Ayala the new White Tiger. The Heroes for Hire teamed with Spider-Man to battle the Plunderer when he attempted to steal Horizon Labs technology. The team disbanded not long after as the members joined the Mighty Avengers.; ===Misappropriation===; During the lull in usage, Deadpool took hold of the Heroes for Hire name after he became inspired by Solo's usage of his image. This angered Luke Cage into getting the name back, thanks to a cease and desist letter proclaiming rights usage.; After helping Tombstone recover the Supersoul Stone from White Jennie, Luke and Danny then reunited once again as the Heroes for Hire, opening a new headquarters in Harlem. They next accompanied Deadpool and Daredevil to Fresh Kills, New Jersey to recover a missing laptop.; ===Gang War===; The Heroes for Hire were forced to disband sometime after Danny gave up the Iron Fist and Luke was elected as Mayor of New York City. Due to the Anti-Powers Act still enacted by the previous Mayor Wilson Fisk that outlawed superhero activity in the city, crime rates started skyrocketing. Luke and Danny briefly considered bringing back the Heroes for Hire but decided not to after Luke was threatened with arrest for trying to stop an armed robbery, despite being the Mayor. When the Gang War broke out, Luke instead donned a new disguise and recruited Danny, his wife Jessica Jones, Cloak and Dagger to be part of his unnamed vigilante team to end the destructive gang violence while circumventing the Act.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Criminal organisation formed by Parker Robbins to unite costumed criminals in support of one another.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City, New York
+History:
+===Origin===; Hood formed this group of criminals during his tenure as the Kingpin of Crime in New York City. While the New Avengers were fighting a symbiote outbreak in Manhattan, Hood used a Deathlok to rob a bank in New Jersey, then used the proceeds as seed money to recruit a large number of supervillains. As luck would have it, a recent breakout had left most of the villains free, but struggling to get by, so his offer was well-received.; With a close council of advisors and enforcers, Hood led his people in a fight against Luke Cage's New Avengers, which he lost through the actions of Doctor Strange. However, the Hood was able to use his magic gear to get them out of jail quickly.; ===Secret Invasion===; The group was active during the Skrulls Secret Invasion, where they sided with the other human heroes against the aliens. As Hood's syndicate was attacking the Skulls, it was revealed that they had known there were Skrulls in hiding as Skrull agents had tried to replace Madame Masque but failed. When advised to use his magic to scan the villains present, Hood discovered that Slug had been replaced by a Skrull and killed him.; ===Dark Reign===; In the wake of this, the group began to benefit from their leader's alliance with Norman Osborn, the new American homeland security czar and head of the S.H.I.E.L.D. replacement known as H.A.M.M.E.R.. In this new environment, the organization consolidated its control of the New York criminal underworld, and began to spread in new directions: sending members to join the Initiative and also tried to control the zombie virus. At the same time they continued to face opposition from rebel heroes such as the New Avengers and the Punisher, and even from independent villains, like Enforcer and Mister Negative.; During this time, Jonas Harrow, a high-ranking member of the group, found the remains of a device intended to nullify superpowers, and rebuilt it, able to include or exclude people from its effect. When the Hood lost his powers and had to go on a journey to recover them, Harrow struck, taking control of the gang and fighting the New Avengers and Osborn's "official" Avengers team. When Hood got back, he killed Harrow and retook the group.; ===Siege===; In the wake of this, the group became part of Norman Osborn's plan to invade Asgard, with the promise of government-mandated immunity from prosecution for all members if they were successful. Unfortunately, due to a combination of plans coming to fruition, the invasion was thwarted, and in the confusion, the group's members were all either arrested or had to flee, and the group's power was spent.; ===Return===; Years later, The Hood took a second shot at becoming the new kingpin of New York following Wilson Fisk's exit from the underworld. After the fall of Kingpin runner-up Diamondback at the hands of the Defenders, The Hood grabbed hold of his territory and operations. He reunited many former members of his old army, and intended to form a new alliance, dividing New York in territories and assigning one supervillain to act as said territory's indisputable kingpin. Even though the meeting was interrupted by the Defenders and numerous of their allies, the reformation of The Hood's army moved forward. One of their first actions consisted on targeting Victor von Doom, who had turned a new leaf and had become the new Iron Man.; Hood's Gang ambushed Iron Man in the ruins of Castle Doom where Hood used his demonic bullets to knock him off balance, allowing the rest of the army to gang up on him and knock him out. With Victor von Doom down on the ground, Hood ordered his minions to tear the place apart and uncover its secrets. Wrecker worked to open up Victor's Iron Man armor as he was being restrained by Rampage and Shockwave. Before Wrecker could finish the job, Victor teleported away in a bright flash. Hood suspected that he and Tony Stark were connected and that they had to find Tony Stark in order to get to Victor's wealth.

+History:
+Not much is known about the Lord of Death, a Nazi sympathizer, he would be the inventor of "Di-Namo Fluid". Replacing human blood with this fluid would turn people into mindless zombies that would be unstoppable short of destroying their bodies. His work would attract the attention of Hitler himself who would personally oversee his mission of disrupting the American military effort before they could enter the war.; Stationing himself in the Bowery section of New York, he would lure members of the large homeless population into his lair, promising food and work. Instead, he would drain the homeless people of their blood and turn them into zombies with the Di-Namo Fluid. He would unleash these zombies to attack a nearby navy ship being guarded by Steve Rogers and Bucky. Changing into Captain America and Bucky, the two would fight off the zombies. Posing as homeless men, they would be lured into the Lord of Death's lair where they would learn of his plot.; Changing into their costumed identities, they would easily defeat the overweight Lord of Death, knocking him into his own machinery, killing him.; In the late 1950s, Geoffrey Sydenham recreated the Lord of Death's dynamo fluid and produced a large group of Hollow Men to be used as part of ICON's forces. One group of these Hollow Men were created in a secret hideout in Latveria which Nick Fury and the Blonde Phantom invaded while seeking information on a supposed new Nazi movement. Finding only the zombified Hollow Men, Fury blew up the base before the two adventurers fled the scene. Sydenham had a second group of Hollow Men stationed in Washington D.C., though these were later defeated by Sabretooth and Namora when they defeated ICON's forces and captured Sydenham.

+History:
+===Baron Strucker's High Council===; Following Nick Fury's seeming discovery of Hydra's long-term manipulation of S.H.I.E.L.D., Supreme Hydra Baron Wolfgang von Strucker gathered Viper, Kraken (actually Jake Fury posing as Daniel Whitehall), a new Madame Hydra (unknown to all, Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, a longtime agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. who was actually a sleeper agent of Leviathan), Hive, and a resurrected Gorgon to form the first iteration of the High Council of Hydra.; After coming into conflict with Fury's Secret Warriors, the Council decided it was time to destroy S.H.I.E.L.D. once and for all. Upon learning Fury planned to attack the H.A.M.M.E.R. shipyards to regain his Helicarrier fleet, the male members of the Council split away to lead an assault against Fury while the female ones obtained a box containing a Brood power source from Clan Yashida. With the High Council focused on warring with Fury, Leviathan agents kidnapped Viper, who was killed by Madame Hydra and later brought back to life by the Hive.; Hydra and Leviathan went to war with one another, their conflict ending with Leviathan's destruction and the High Council of Hydra's disbandment: Viper and Gorgon decided to leave Strucker to cut their losses and took their Hydra troops with them, the Hive was seemingly killed by the Caterpillars' Grey Team, and Kraken's identity as Jake Fury was revealed. Jake was in fact a double agent working for his brother Nick, helping him finally kill Baron Strucker. Afterwards, Gorgon and Viper went on to join Norman Osborn and his H.A.M.M.E.R. coalition. Norman Osborn was ultimately defeated by the combined efforts of the Avengers and New Avengers, and H.A.M.M.E.R. was disbanded. Viper used the remaining agents to reconstruct Hydra as the new head of the organization.; ===Baron Zemo's High Sect===; When Hydra discovered a young Inhuman boy (named Lucas) whose blood contained a toxin capable of sterilizing human beings, new Hydra leader Baron Zemo created a plan to use his blood as a bioweapon to sterilize the world, leaving only immunized Hydra operatives with the ability to reproduce. Batroc the Leaper, Taskmaster, Cobra, Sin, Armadillo, Viper, Baron Blood, and Crossbones joined Zemo's cause of their own free will, thus becoming his High Sect.; When their original plan to spread Lucas' blood failed due to the combined efforts of Captain America (Sam Wilson), Nomad, and Misty Knight, Baron Blood attempted to detonate himself in the high atmosphere while full of the boy's blood, but this contingency plan was too thwarted by Captain America. With most of its members defeated, the High Sect disbanded.; ===Captain America's High Council===; Hailing from a world governed by Hydra created by the sentient Cosmic Cube named Kobik, the powerful witch Elisa Sinclair took the mantle of Madame Hydra and created a new High Council. This new iteration consisted of Hive, Viper, Dr. Faustus, Gorgon, Arnim Zola, a new Kraken, Baron Zemo, and the Captain America (Steve Rogers) of the same world Sinclair originated from.; After months of planning, Captain America led Hydra into taking over the United States of America while also eliminating any opposition from the superhero community. The High Council ran the country from that point forward, but a few of its members questioned Captain America's methods and even tried to subvert his rule. After the death of Madame Hydra, Captain America started getting serious and ordered the High Council to retrieve the last few remnants of Kobik so he could restore his world. The High Council split up and launched simultaneous attacks on New Tian and Wakanda, managing to obtain the Cosmic Cube fragments kept there. Things started to fall apart for Hydra when America's superhero community reunited and banded together to overthrow their rule. Much of the High Council took part in the final battle in Washington, D.C., but they were defeated and Hydra's rule over the United States was ended.

+Equipment: Those of their members' former hosts.
+Weapons: Those of their members' former hosts.
+Transportation: Those of their members' former hosts.
+Notes: Very few of the Poisons originated from the Hive's native universe. Poison Thanos might be the only one.
+History:
+===Origins===; The Hive was the name used by the Poisons, a group of interdimensional creatures who can assimilate Symbiotes and consume their hosts to gain their likeness, memories, powers, and abilities. The Hive's Poisons were controlled by the Poison Queen, who was empowered by the life-force of those consumed and could speak and act through them. However, the Poison Queen's control was not absolute as several individuals resisted being consumed and/or rebelled against the Hive - namely Poison Deadpool, Poison Marvel Girl, and Poison Carnage.; ===War against the Venoms===; The Hive was first encountered when Doctor Strange stumbled upon a symbiote on the run from the Poisons. In an attempt to stop the Hive's Multiversal quest for dominion, Strange summoned other Venomized heroes, villains, and antiheroes to form a Resistance. Unfortunately, many members of the Resistance were assimilated into the Hive.; Strange eventually summoned the Venom of the Prime Marvel Universe to aid the Resistance, losing both Venomized Spider-Man and Captain Venom to the Hive.; Meanwhile, the Hive also explored other avenues to conquer the Multiverse. One such attack was carried out by Poison Fin Fang Foom, who managed to access the mind of the Kid Kaiju from the Prime Marvel Universe, forcing the boy to summon him to that Earth's Savage Land. Kid Kaiju's monsters were summoned to defeat this Poison, but were unable to do so because Kid Kaiju doubted himself, thus weakening their abilities. This prompted Kid Kaiju to summon the Fin Fang Foom of the Prime Marvel Universe to defeat the 'impostor' and, while Foom was initially defeated in combat, he managed to give Kid Kaiju enough self confidence that his monsters could regroup and kill the Poison.; During Earth-41940's Venom initiation battle into the Resistance, the fight was brought to his reality. They allied with Thanos in exchange for him sparing their species if he managed to destroyed half the universe. They were sent to obtain the Mind Stone from Iron Man, but were defeated by the combined forces of the Avengers, Resistance, and Spider-Men.; Stuck on Earth-41940, the poisons needed a new homeworld. They chose Klynatr, sending Poison Rhino and Poison Spider-Man to uproot their government. They locked up most of the symbiotes in the Symbiote Prison. Riot had evaded capture and was able to free its brethren, starting the Poison/Symbiote War. In the end, they agreed to a truce, giving the Poisons their own territory.; Returning back to the Venomverse, Venompool willingly joined the Hive, believing that his strong personality and healing factor would allow him to survive the assimilation. This infiltration succeeded and the Resistance gained a mole in the form of Poison Deadpool. Poison Deadpool "captured" Carnage, enabling the remaining members of the Resistance to mount a rescue in which they saved Strange and killed most of the Poisons based in Earth-22249.; ===The Poisons Strike Back===; After the failed attempt to use Kid Kaiju, the Hive fulfilled succeeded in their objective of travelling to Earth-616. Once in this univese, the Hive used the services of Symbiote-hunter Haze Mancer to raid Symbiotes, the homeworld of the symbiotes, and abducted all of its inhabitants. In the process, the Poisons stumbled upon the X-Men and Venom, who were in a space adventure, and assimilated Jean Grey.; The symbiotes kidnapped from Klyntar were genetically modified so it would be harder to separate them from their hosts. The Hive then traveled to Earth, and started forcing the symbiotes they abducted to bond with numerous superhumans, so they could be consumed in turn. The Hive additionally deployed agents to capture this world's Carnage, since they expected him to be a threat. Since Kasady had been stripped of his Symbiote, the Hive was able to trick him into bonding with another and then assimilating him.; Jean Grey's psyche had survived the assimilation due to her powers, and she called out for Cyclops, allowing the heroes to learn the location of the Hive's mothership. Only Venom, the X-Men, Spider-Man and Daredevil made it to the mothership, since a Quinjet transporting other heroes was taken down from the sky by the Poison Thanos. When they encountered the Poison Queen, who was using Poison Marvel Girl's powers to bolster her own, Jean Grey killed Poison Marvel Girl from within before killing the Poison Queen and reconstituting her body. Since all members of the Hive were connected to the Poison Queen, her death caused a chain reaction that destroyed almost every single Poison, assimilated or unbound. The only known Poisons to have survived were one that had assimilated Jimmy Hudson and Poison Carnage, though the latter had mostly retained his original psyche.

While the other Hex-Men were teleported with her, Bloodstorm remained behind, presumably due to her betrayal severing any bonds she had with Pryor. She was then offered a spot on the team by Cyclops.

Shathra sent a Spider-Wasp to sting her, corrupting Annie and transforming her into Shathra's Nestling. Shathra then personally turned the Noir Spider-Man while sending swarms of wasps through the Great Web to turn other spiders across the Multiverse, transforming them into her servants who formed a Hive at the center of the Great Nest. Shathra was opposed by a small team led by Madame Web and Spider-UK, but their war against her was a losing one, and Shathra eventually managed to convert, capture or kill almost all Spider-Totems in the entire Multiverse.; When Shathra's reign was at its peak and her full dominion was at hand, her plans were undone when Silk stabbed Morlun with the Totem Dagger. This instantly freed all Spider-Totems from Shathra's control, reverting them back to their normal selves. Peter Parker of Earth-616 then used a Great Web Shooter to banish Shathra to a different plane of existence.

+===First Horsemen===; The First Horsemen (Pestilence, War, Famine, and Death) were the Omega-level sons and daughters of Apocalypse and Genesis from the ancient mutant land of Okkara. When the four children were born, their maternal aunt Isca the Unbeaten forged the Scarab, a sword in four parts, to celebrate their births.; In 2620 BC, when the Brood invaded Egypt, Apocalypse and his Horsemen left Okkara to fight alongside a Moon Knight and Imhotep, who founded the first iteration of the Brotherhood of the Shield.; When Okkara was split by a force wielding the Twilight Sword, Apocalypse and his first Horsemen fought the invaders. In the end, they were responsible for the sealing of the chasm. The Horsemen were sealed on the other side of the chasm alongside their mother and Arakko, to the sorrow of Krakoa.; After the Horsemen were trapped in the hellish dimension of Amenth, their father built a pyramid, sectioned in four parts, to serve as a monument to their sacrifice, the Temple of the Horsemen, which housed four memorial tombs for each of them. Inside each tomb, Apocalypse hid a part of the Scarab. During his mourning moments, Apocalypse visited the Temple of the Horsemen to remember his children.; Apocalypse sought new Horsemen to replace his lost children. For a long time, he sought his Horsemen solely within his own bloodline, but eventually tired of this and instead began recruiting them from outsiders.; ===3rd Century===; In 281, Decimus Furius activated his powers in Rome and was collected by Apocalypse and "stored" for later use as the War of his Final Horsemen.; ===4th Century===; In 325, Sanjar Javeed was collected by Apocalypse and "stored" for later use as the Death of his Final Horsemen.; ===11th Century===; In 1013, Apocalypse came to Scandinavia to kill on the counsel of Rama-Tut who informed him of beings and ancestors of people who would cause a threat to him in the future. He then sent his four Four Horsemen (Pestilence/Phantom Bats of the Twelve Minds, War, Native-American Famine, and Death) to kill Folkbern Logan, ancestor of Wolverine, but they were all destroyed by Thor.; ===15th Century===; In the fifteenth century, Apocalypse led yet another group of Horsemen and rode among them as well, leading an army of followers known as the Riders of the Dark. This army was so strong and powerful that some were led to believe that they were just a myth to scare soldiers even before their first battle.; In 1459, in Romania, the Horseman of War led the Riders of the Dark, and single-handedly defeated Vlad the Impaler and his army.; ===19th Century===; In 1833, Ichisumi first activated and was collected by Apocalypse and "stored" for later use as the Famine of his Final Horsemen.; In 1863, Jeb Lee activated and was collected as well by Apocalypse, "stored" for later use as the Pestilence of his Final Horsemen.; ===20th and 21st Centuries===; ====First modern incarnation====; The first modern Horseman recruited by Apocalypse was Plague, a member of the Morlocks, whom he recruited during the Mutant Massacre to fill the role of Pestilence. He then approached ex-soldier Abraham Kieros and granted him the position of War. Autumn Rolfson was Apocalypse's third choice and was given the position of Famine. Apocalypse then saved the de-winged Angel from his sabotaged, exploding plane and chose him to be his fourth and final Horseman, Death.; The Four Horsemen were forced to battle one another for leadership, and Death emerged victorious. In a battle against X-Factor, the Horsemen were nearly defeated until Death appeared, shocking his former comrades. Caliban went to Apocalypse and asked for a power boost so he could avenge his fellow Morlocks. Pestilence was slain in the battle and Archangel came back to his senses after assuming he killed his former comrade, Iceman. Apocalypse was forced to retreat with his remaining Horsemen and Caliban.; Caliban replaced Angel on the team and became Death. He captured Cyclops and Jean Grey and took them to Mister Sinister. The X-Men tracked him down and defeated Caliban and Famine and then realized the Horsemen were under Mr. Sinister's orders. The X-Men were later defeated by Apocalypse. Caliban battled Sabretooth for revenge of the Mutant Massacre and lost the battle.; ====The Hulk====; After a battle with the X-Men in their mansion, Hulk was discovered by Apocalypse and became his second incarnation of War. Apocalypse set him against the Juggernaut to test his strength. Hulk was able to knock back Juggernaut with the huge celestial energy boost that Apocalypse had given him. He was also able to best the Absorbing Man, but came to his senses when he thought he had injured his friend, Rick Jones.; ====Second incarnation====; For his second team of Horsemen, Apocalypse had Wolverine abducted, replacing him with a Skrull impostor to prevent his absence being noted, and pitched him in battle against Sabretooth. The winner of the battle, Wolverine, became his Horseman of Death. Wolverine as Death, battled the X-Men and killed the impostor Wolverine. Apocalypse then turned Deathbird into his second Horseman, War. Caliban was once again chosen to be one of Apocalypse's Horsemen, this time becoming Pestilence. Pestilence and War fought X-Force and captured Cable. In a battle against the X-Men, Death was unmasked and revealed to be Wolverine.; In Apocalypse's lair, Cable escaped and defeated Death in battle. Apocalypse then threatened to kill Caliban. Apocalypse captured Rory Campbell and turned him into his fourth Horseman, Famine. The Horsemen then started collecting "The Twelve". When Death captured Mikhail Rasputin and failed to teleport out with him, he was chased into the Morlock Tunnels by the X-Men. He battled them and regained his memory, thanks to the efforts of Jubilee, Shadowcat, Archangel and Psylocke. The rest of the Horsemen were teleported to another dimension by Mikhail.; ====Third incarnation====; Following the House of M and M-Day, Apocalypse resurrected, only to find himself in a world with its mutant population reduced to a tenth of what it had been, out of the millions who populated earth prior to his demise at Cable's hands. Bent on becoming the new messiah for mutantkind, Apocalypse assembled a new cadre of Horsemen, with the purpose of wiping out 90% of the baseline human population.; Apocalypse's new Horsemen were Gazer as War, Sunfire as Famine, Polaris as Pestilence and Gambit as Death. Gazer was saved from death and forced to battle an archaeologist for the mantle of War, which he won with the aid of Apocalypse's majordomo and scribe, Ozymandias. Both Sunfire, who had lost his legs at the hands of Lady Deathstrike and his powers to Rogue and Polaris, an M-Day victim, were captured, and reluctantly altered into Famine and Pestilence, respectively. Gambit, however, submitted himself willingly to be transformed into Death, as he had come to believe Apocalypse could be helpful to the mutant cause though he would require to be watched. Sunfire was able to break free of Apocalypse's control with the help of Emma Frost, although he was weakened by the experience. Polaris was knocked out by Iceman in the final battle. She was abandoned, saved by Havok, and was de-brainwashed by the X-Men. Gazer died defending Apocalypse, stabbed in the back by Ozymandias. Sunfire took Gambit somewhere at the conclusion of the final battle, only to be approached by Mister Sinister.; ====Final Horsemen====; The Final Horsemen was the contingency plan that Apocalypse had prepared in case of an ultimate failure. They were Pestilence (Ichisumi), War (Decimus Furius), Famine (Jeb Lee), and Death (Sanjar Javeed). They aided Clan Akkaba and the new Ship in resurrecting their master.; The Horsemen's first test was to protect a recently revived Apocalypse from the X-Force, but they failed and their master was killed by Fantomex. They reappeared later in service to Apocalypse's newly risen successor, Archangel. After Sanjar was slain, Archangel chose Psylocke as his replacement as Death, but she was cleared of his influence.; Before Archangel's defeat, he had impregnated Pestilence with the Apocalypse Twins, but the babies were stolen by Kang the Conqueror. The Final Horsemen went to work for Genocide, as he was next in line, until the Apocalypse Twins suddenly appeared from the timestream. The Twins killed War and Famine for siding with Genocide instead of them.; ====Horsemen of Death====; The Apocalypse Twins, using a set of both Life Seeds and Death Seeds, brought back to life the Sentry, Banshee, Grim Reaper, and Daken, and turned them into their Four Horsemen of Death.; By the conclusion of their campaign, the Apocalypse Twins were apparently deceased, Banshee was a captive of the Avengers, Sentry had disappeared into space, and Daken and Grim Reaper were left to their own whims.; ====The First Horsemen Return====; The First Horsemen of Apocalypse planned their return and overthrow of Krakoa with their fellow Arakkii mutants and Daemon army by waging war on their father and the Krakoan mutants living there. War sent in her son to trick her father and the other mutants living there into building the External Gate, connecting Otherworld to Krakoa. When Apocalypse, and some mutants who volunteered to traverse the gate, decided to cross over to Otherworld to see the danger that Summoner had warned of, he was attacked and betrayed by him and the First Horsemen of Apocalypse, being forced to retreat back to Krakoa to heal their wounds and prepare for war between the two groups.; ==Succession line==; Pestilence:; Pestilence (First Horsemen); Pestilence (Phantom Bats of the Twelve Minds) (11th Century); Plague; Caliban; Lorna Dane; Ichisumi (Final Horsemen); War:; War (First Horsemen); War (11th Century); War (15th Century); Abraham Kieros; Bruce Banner; Cal'syee Neramani; Gazer; Decimus Furius (Final Horsemen); Famine:; Famine (First Horsemen); Famine (11th Century); Autumn Rolfson; Rory Campbell; Shiro Yoshida; Jeb Lee (Final Horsemen); Death:; Death (First Horsemen); Death (11th Century); Warren Worthington III; Caliban; Logan; Remy LeBeau; Sanjar Javeed (Final Horsemen); Betsy Braddock; Four Horsemen of Death:; Eric Williams; Sean Cassidy; Daken; Robert Reynolds

+Species / origin: The Horsemen of Apocalypse was the main strike force of the mutant En Sabah Nur
+Reality: Earth-295
+History:
+The Horsemen of Apocalypse were the elite among Apocalypse's forces. The earliest incarnation of the Horsemen included Sabretooth, Candra, Gideon, War, and Death. They were dispatched to Cape Citadel to take control of its nuclear stockpile and use it against humanity. Their attempt was thwarted by the newly formed X-Men. Gideon was slain in the process while Sabretooth was abandoned to the X-Men, though he rejoined Apocalypse's forces at a later date.; Over the years, members of the Horsemen were killed and/or replaced by others. War was killed by Holocaust, Apocalypse's son. Candra was also slain by Holocaust. Death was replaced by Maximus, ruler of the Inhumans. When Maximus was keeping Apocalypse during a period of recuperation he attempted to slay Apocalypse and take over his empire. Prelate Cyclops thwarted this by aiding the X-Men in defeating him. Maximus was slain by Sunfire. Another member was Bastion who was slain and replaced by Abyss. The final incarnation of the Horsemen consisted of only four members: Holocaust, Mikhail Rasputin, Abyss, and Sinister.; In the final days of Apocalypse's regime the four Horsemen pursued their agendas: Holocaust oversaw the cullings of humans in Chicago only to be defeated by the X-Men. Abyss attempted to prevent a Sentinel evacuation of humans, but was foiled by the X-Men. He later tortured the X-Man Bishop until he was rescued by his comrades, and Abyss was slain. Sinister defected, and disguised as Essex, monitored his creation Nate Grey until Nate discovered his true identity and seemingly slew him. Mikhail relocated to London where he attempted to trick the human population into participating in his Upstart Program to create an army of cyborgs to overthrow Apocalypse until he was slain by Donald Blake.; Following the death of Apocalypse, only two members of the his Horsemen survived. Holocaust escaped to Earth-616 during the final battle against the X-Men. Sinister also survived and went into hiding to continue his experiments until he was tracked down and killed by the X-Men.; ===New Apocalypse===; After his ascension as the new Apocalypse, Weapon Omega reformed the Horsemen of Apocalypse, now appointing Ministers instead of Horsemen. He made Azazel his Minister of Death and then began resurrecting formerly deceased Alpha mutants, making Cyclops his Minister of Famine, Havok his Minister of War, and Emplate his Minister of Pestilence. Each Minister had a special area of control and their own special troops.

Apocalypse then revealed Xavier's plan to take over the world. Since the Shadow King part of him ran on fear, Xavier had devised a fake Galactus to come and terrorize the planet, giving him more and more power as people became more and more afraid. Fake Galactus landed, and he was met by the Six and the horsemen, who began to pour on the power. Then some fake heralds showed up, and Apocalypse and Magneto joined in to kick their butts back to nothing. As a giant team, they all blasted the fake Galactus and melted him into green goo.

+History:
+The Four Horsemen of Apocalypse, the lineup was composed of mutants that submitted themselves to the so-called Mutant Cure, developed by Dr. Adler (actually Mystique in disguise). The "Cure" process transformed the four mutants: Autumn Rolfson (Famine), Plague (Pestilence), Abraham Kieros (War), and Archangel (Death) into altered mutants under the control of Apocalypse. Together, they attack a peace conference in Paris where Apocalypse makes his presence known to the world.; The Horsemen laid waste to several global areas; Famine attacked farms seeking to destroy crops, War attacked military bases and turned their weapons against them, and Death struck at a dam causing significant innocent deaths no doubt. The X-Men arrived in Paris to find Pestilence spreading sickness and disease. Storm and Cyclops managed to defeat her, but the rest of The Horsemen arrived. Famine kept Cyclops and Storm occupied while War almost seriously injured Wolverine, but luckily, he was saved by Gambit. The Horsemen retreated to Stonehenge where Rogue had foolishly come to face Apocalypse alone.; Apocalypse, disappointed in his Horsemen, toyed with Rogue and almost killed her with his energy blasts. Luckily, the rest of the X-Men arrived and clashed with the Horsemen once more; War blasted Gambit and Wolverine but he was tripped up by a beam from Cyclops, Jean Grey easily neutralized Pestilence, and in the skies above. Famine narrowly evades Storm's lightning bolts.; As Death was about to attack, Rogue came up and touched him, absorbing his memories and energy, nullifying Apocalypse's power over him. Death was distraught by the violent reality of what he has become and lashed out at the Horsemen, defeating them. Apocalypse escaped and so did Death, flying off into the night, ashamed.; The X-Men battled another team of Horsemen, created by Apocalypse during his time in Egypt. The style of these Horsemen reflected their Egyptian origins.

However, Caliban sensed Jubilee nearby and lead the Hounds to find her and Beast. Having a change of heart, Caliban turned against Cortez and the other Hounds to free Jubilee.

+History:
+The Hooded Gang was a lynch mob formed in the fall of 1942 by real estate owner Mr. Dodd. Dodd lived in the town of Somerville and owned the property where the local slum -- called Sunnyvale -- was located. Dodd was hoping to sell the land to allow a local railroad company to put tracks through the area, but the plan was threatened by the city council's plans to demolish the slum and build new homes for the people. Dodd vehemently opposed this and kept his reasons for doing so a secret. Instead, he used his charismatic personality to win people over (or to likely buy them off) to support his side of the argument. He almost caused a city council meeting to end in a riot if not for the timely intervention of the Human Torch and Toro who happened to be stranded in Somerville due to a storm.; The following day, when City Councilor Ross showed the Torch and Toro the slum, Dodd framed Ross for the murder of one of his own supporters. When the Torch and Toro searched Dodd's home for clues proving he was responsible, Dodd and his men got the drop on the two heroes and bound them in asbestos tape. While the two heroes struggled to get free, Dodd rallied up his followers and decked in robes they stormed the police station demanding that Ross be released to them. When the authorities refused, Dodd and his men stormed the prison and forced Ross out, taking him to the local forest where they prepared to hang him and light him on fire to make it painful.; The Torch and Toro by this point had broken free and learned of Dodd's plans for Sunnyvale and caught up with the mob. Fighting them off, they saved the life of Ross and forced Dodd to confess his crimes. Dodd was turned over to the authorities and eventually convicted of the crimes he was accused of. The fate of the rest of the mob is unknown; however, it can be certain they were disbanded once their ring leader was taken down.

Hotrodder leader Big Daddy Sinister, for reasons of his own, sent the Hotrodders to find and kill any mutant, in particular those mutants with insignificant roles in the comic-book plot. Eventually the Hotrodders recruited a new leader, Lorna Doone, who had been girfriend to X-Persons' Hamhock but changed her mind and decided to try and kill him. Apparently the team could have two leaders at once. The X-Persons were familiar with them.; During the "Mutant Beach Party" saga, the X-Persons and friends were being harassed by the ominous consortium of their most deadly and most implacable enemies. The consortium recruited several villains and teams to attack the X-Persons before the consortium themselves made their grand entrance, and one of these teams was the Hotrodders. While the X-Persons were in hiding in a forest, the Hotrodders appeared, made a shooting raid and left. X-Person leader Sturm-and-Drang asked Psy-lark to count the victims, which totalled 127 unknown mutants and 14 Star Trek redshirts.

+Trivia: According to Bryan Singer, the four Horsemen in X-Men: Apocalypse represents a different aspect of a cult's power to recruit: Magneto is the political faction; Angel who acts as a guardian, the military faction; Storm, the young whose mind is malleable, the youth faction; and Psylocke, the sexual component, "because cult leaders tend to sexualize their position and have sex with half the people in their cult."; "The Four Horsemen" is the name of the song playing in the background of the scene where Apocalypse recruits Angel. It was released on the Metallica album Kill 'Em All in 1983.
+History:
+X-Men: Apocalypse; In 3600 B.C., En Sabah Nur was growing old in his current form. Aided by his Horsemen, he performed a ceremony that would allow him to transfer his consciousness and previously acquired abilities into a new host, a mutant who had enhanced healing. His priestess began the transfer, but a coup was launched by a few of his servants. All the Horsemen were killed while defending their master. En Sabah Nur's life was saved in the process.; Once En Sabah Nur awakened in 1983 Cairo, he decided to recruit again his four elite henchmen. The first was Ororo Munroe, a pickpocket who he saved from vengeful salesmen. While visiting Caliban in East Berlin seeking for powerful mutants, En Sabah Nur recruited his bodyguard Psylocke, who in turn directed him to a disgraced cage fighter, Angel. Finally, En Sabah Nur went after Magneto, who after witnessing the deaths of his wife and daughter was again angry and vengeful at normal humans.

+Notes: The truly origin of the Hounds remains unrevealed, as they could be Earth-001 versions of super heroes and villains or alternate versions from other universes brought to Inheritors' home reality to be turned into what they're now.; It's strongly probable that Jennix's genetical experiments could be responsible for the "de-evolution" of the Hounds.
+Trivia: Most of the Hounds got muzzles, even if some of them didn't wear that (as the Vultures who attacked Spider-Man of Earth-94), the main difference noticed between the ones with and without the muzzles was that the second ones could freely speak. Maybe the muzzle was assigned to the most ferals among the Hounds.
+History:
+The Hounds' early lives are still unrevealed, what's certain is that at some point the Inheritors' member Verna enslaved them, turning them into something a bit more than animals, as she called them the Hounds. She used them as superhuman supports during her missions against the Spider-Army, as she preferred not to run after her preys, but to wait her Hounds to catch them and then "feed" herself with the victims.; As revealed by the Spider-Man of Earth-4, Verna treated the Hounds as animals, giving them very few food in order to make them even more dangerous, maybe promising them to let them eat her designated victims. However, the Hounds were not completely brain-washed, but their will had been definitely broken, leaving them totally devoted to Verna, as it was shown by the dialogue between the Vulture member of the Hounds and the Spider-Man prey of Earth-94. Becoming a Hound didn't undermine the subject's natural abilities, as it was shown by the Goblins who were still able to use their gliders and weapons.; The Hounds resurfaced as Verna chased a group of Spider-Men on Earth-3145, but they disappeared after the ultimate defeat of the Inheritors.

+Species / origin: This team of Horsemen was created as Apocalypse's answer to the incursion crisis.
+Reality: Earth-12131
+Transportation: Various forms of teleportation.
+History:
+When he returned, Apocalypse used Mr. Sinister, Sugar Man, and allies in the Hellfire Club and Brotherhood of Evil Mutants to capture four of the X-Men to make into his newest Horsemen. He started by sending Avalanche, Toad, and Living Pharoah to capture Beast and Rogue in New York City. He subsequently used Sinister to transport Beast to London and Rogue to San Francisco. In London, Selene, Avalanche, and Dragoness helped capture Iceman, while Living Monolith, Blob, and Toad ambushed X-23 in San Francisco.; After they were transformed, Apocalypse sent his new Horsemen to wreak havoc around the globe and test who was fit for survival. Iceman/Death was sent to New York, Beast/Pestilence remained in London, X-23/War was sent to Wakanda, and Rogue/Famine remained in San Francisco. After the Alliance managed to defeat the individual Horsemen, they withdrew to New York where the final confrontation with Apocalypse himself took place. Once Apocalypse was defeated, they were freed from his control.

+Reality: Earth-51518
+Base of operations: New Cairo, Domain of Apocalypse, Battleworld, Earth-15513
+History:
+The Horsemen of Apocalypse were the chief servants of Baron Apocalypse. Once, the Horsemen were barons of their own domains, but all were conquered by Apocalypse, who forced them into servitude.; The Horsemen were charged by Apocalypse to find and retrieve Douglas Ramsey. Holocaust managed to track him down, but was killed by the X-Men when they shattered his armour casing. Sabretooth was also dispatched to track down Ramsey. Sinister meanwhile, was asked to assess the Friends of Humanity.; Learning that the humans had some sort of super-weapon capable of destroying all mutants, the Horsemen launched interrogations. Sabretooth interrogated Jean Grey, a telepath working at Angel's club, while Abyss and Sinister interrogated Sheriff Danvers, the peace keeper of the human district. Uncovering the location of the humans' weapon, revealed to be the Legacy Virus, a plague capable of wiping out mutantkind, the Horsemen ordered an attack on the human district in order to find it. Their forces were intercepted by the X-Men however, and eventually Apocalypse himself arrived and unleashed the virus, declaring that those who were truly worthy of living would survive it.; The Horsemen personally intervened, initially fighting the X-Men with Apocalypse, but when it became apparent that Apocalypse himself had been infected with the virus, they turned on him and helped the X-Men kill him.; When Doctor Nemesis, now possessing a multitude of mutant powers, attacked them all, Sabretooth was killed. Sinister however managed to repair Jean Grey's mind, realising that restoring the Phoenix would be the only way to cure the virus and stop Nemesis. He succeeded, and the Phoenix used her powers to de-power every mutant in the domain, making them all humans.

+Trivia: Until the addition of Colossus, this was the first team of Horsemen of Apocalypse to consist entirely of non-Mutant members.
+History:
+After his return in the early twenty-first century, in which Earth was destroyed and its remnants turned into the Omega World, Apocalypse created a new team of Horsemen composed by Deadpool, the Venom Symbiote, a Moon Knight, and the Man-Thing to keep order on his new world.; When Colossus and his team of young X-Men ended up on Omega World after being accidentally teleported by the Sugar Man's time-machine, the Horsemen of Apocalypse felt their presence and attacked them for corrupting Apocalypse's domain. However, the Horsemen were only capable of subduing Colossus, as he hold them off long enough for the young mutants to flee.; As the young mutants were in possession of an ark containing six hundred mutant embryos, the Horsemen were ordered by their master to find and kill them, and retrieve the ark. At some point during the year the Horsemen spent searching for the other mutants on Omega World, Colossus was converted into one of them.; The Horsemen of Apocalypse finally found the young mutants in the Mole Men's territory, accompanied by a team of X-Men led by Storm, who had followed Colossus and his team through the timestream in order to rescue him. They engaged the X-Men in battle and defeated them, taking the ark from them and teleporting back to Apocalypse's Kingdom afterwards.; The Horsemen of Apocalypse ambushed the X-Men when they invaded Apocalypse's Kingdom to try to retrieve the ark, which (unbeknownst to them) had already been destroyed by Apocalypse. The Horsemen of Apocalypse supposedly died when Omega World crumbled as the result of Apocalypse being fatally wounded by Nightcrawler.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Mutants brainwashed to serve as Horsemen under the control of Nate Grey
+Reality: Earth-616
+Notes: This team was X-Man's counterpart to the Horsemen of Apocalypse: Wellness instead of Pestilence, Peace instead of War, Bounty instead of Famine, and Life instead of Death. Additionally, X-Man had a Life Seed instead of a Death Seed, and X-Man himself was originally born as a plot by Mister Sinister to kill Apocalypse in the Age of Apocalypse timeline.
+History:
+The Horsemen of Salvation was a group of mutants that were being controlled by Nate Grey to help him in his collective ideals about remaking the world in his image. The Horseman blew up the Xavier Institute for Mutant Education and Outreach in Central Park believing that they had killed the X-Men as they were a thorn in their master's plan.; They arrived back at X-Man's hideout in British Columbia, Canada were they kept Kitty Pryde, Apocalypse, and Senator Allen captive as they began Phase 3 of X-Man's plan. X-Man sent Omega Red and Blob to an oil rig off the coast of Louisiana in order to destroy it as it caused massive pollution to the natural environment of the planet but a team of X-Men led by Jean thwarted their plans by saving the men and the rig from exploding.; Storm led another team against Magneto and Angel who were invading Ukistoval, Chernaya to cause an uprise of the citizens who lived there but these surgical strikes by the Horseman were only a diversion to distract the X-Men from Grey's master plan. Storm and the other's kept Magneto busy as Cannonball grabbed Angel and flew him up to the outer most part of the atmosphere causing him to pass out from the thin air. He landed adjacent to Psylocke who used her psionic katana to pierce Warren psyche transforming him into his Archangel persona thus releasing him from X-Man's control.; Archangel stooped into a berserker rage due to the force changed and unleashed his full wraith against Magneto leading to the former to retreat as he was outnumbered. Back in Canada, the Horsemen protected the newly assembled temple created by Grey from the combined forces of the two groups of X-Men. The Horseman stood by as Nate ventured out of the temple where he confronted his mother Jean in an ethical debate about the state of the planet. But it was a brief conversation as the X-Men made the first move causing a battle between them and Nate. After capturing most of them, the Xavier's students approached Grey but after a talk he transferred their consciousness into physic constructs from Grey's home timeline.; While X-Man dealt with the Age of Apocalypse world within his mind, the remaining Horsemen battled against the X-Men trying to keep their master safe within the mindscape, but the students where able to break free from the influence while X-Man had inhabited the mind and body of Legion.; After a failed attempt to create dupes from Multiple Man who sent a dupe in his place due to his cowardice, X-Man amplified the abilities of his Horseman while also brainwashing Storm into becoming his new Horseman of Life. With Legion's powers at his disposal X-Man and his Horsemen gave the X-Men a major defeat. But as a last ditch attempt, Jean telepathically contacted every single person who has been among the ranks of the X-Men to participate in the battle against X-Man. During this time Armor and some of the students were able to trap the Horsemen in a makeshift bubble preventing them from participating in the battle as all the X-Men arrived on the scene.; Jean joined her powers along with the other telepaths as they split Legion from X-Man leaving the former open for an all out physical attack. Magneto and the other Horseman were able to break free from Nate Grey's hold on them and joined in the final battle to stop him once and for all. But Nate gathered his remaining strength and used it to create an energy bomb that disintegrated everyone in the vicinity. But as the world believed them dead, they were actually transported to another plane of existence created by Nate Grey.

+History:
+After Apocalypse was awakened by Moira Kinross and informed of Moira's previous lives and the fate of mutantkind, the two joined forces to wage war on humanity. Six years after Apocalypse awakened, he and Moira rescued the original Four Horsemen from their exile in Amenth. The Horsemen served Apocalypse loyally, fighting in the war against humanity and eventually the Man-Machine Supremacy for 74 years until Mr. Sinister brought about the fall of the mutant nation of Krakoa, resulting in the deaths of the Horsemen.; After a century of war, Apocalypse moved what was left of the mutant population to the Krakoan settlement of Asteroid K. With a new roster of Horsemen and members of the X-Men by his side, they fought against the supremacy of the machines by trying to find the genesis protocols from when Nimrod first came online.; Death and Pestilence laid waste to the Temple of Concordance as the rest of them snuck into the main data repository so Famine could hack into the archives and find information on Nimrod's origins. This intrusion didn't go unnoticed as Nimrod was alerted to their presence. Once Famine downloaded the information into a crystal, they were about to leave, only to be interrupted by the arrival of Nimrod.; Apocalypse handed the data crystal to War and ordered them to retreat as he would hold Nimrod back. Their plan was successful, though it cost Death and Pestilence their lives. War uploaded the crystal into Moira's mind, and on Apocalypse's orders, killed her so that the timeline would reset and Moira would begin anew with knowledge of Nimrod's origins.

+History:
+The Hours was a group of thirteen Nazi agents who were active during World War II. They believed in "Der Tag" (German for "The Day"), the moment when the Nazis would rule the entire world and themed their group after the clock. Each member was code named for each hour on the clock. The thirteenth member, Peter Herrick, was the groups leader and was referred to as "Der Tag" himself.; By May 1944, Peter Herrick had infiltrated the municipality of New York City working as curator for the cities man large clocks. Using these clocks as their targets, they began wiring the various clocks in the city with bombs triggered by a remote device. Their plan was to detonate one clock every hour to spread terror for the purposes of demoralizing the American public. They began testing out their bombs on smaller clocks in the city. Their fourth and final test was to blow up the clock located at Grand Central Station. When the bomb went off, it happened to be at a time that the Human Torch and Toro had returned to the city. Investigating the blast with the police, the Torch found a rubber tube fused to the remains of the clock face. When the police suggested he seek out Peter Herrick, Herrick lied to the Torch, telling him that the hose was of no significance and must have been attached to the clock in the explosion.; Returning to his cohorts, Herrick then prepared them for their next series of attacks. Taking over radio airwaves they broadcast their plans and warned the listening audience that their next target would be the Trysler Building. Hearing this, the Human Torch and Toro rushed to the scene to stop the bomb before the midnight deadline set by the Hours. Arriving at the scene, the Torch found another hose and removed it. Correctly deducing that only Herrick could have access to all the clocks, the Torch and Toro race to Herrick's secret hideout.; There they battled the Hours and preventing Der Tag from setting off the switch to blow up the Moolworth Building. During the fight, the Torch burned off Der Tag's mask revealing his true face and confirming his suspicions that he was Herrick the whole time. Herrick and his accomplices were turned over to the authorities.; The fate of the members of the Hours remains unrevealed.

+History:
+===Preface===; The House of Agon is the name of a group of Inhumans who have a familial relation to the late Agon, former ruler of the Inhumans. The House of Agon is also referred to by the more generic title of Royal Family of the Inhumans, or the Inhuman Royal Family. Even though Agon is long dead, the royal family still refers to themselves as the House of Agon.; The Inhumans are an offshoot of humanity that was genetically altered by the Kree centuries ago. The Inhumans kept themselves hidden from humanity in their city known as Attilan (also known as the Great Refuge) out of fear for centuries, developing a high technological society with a focus on genetics. With the discovery of the Terrigen Mist, the Inhumans would expose themselves to it in order to gain fantastic abilities.; ===Ancestry===; To best understand how the current House of Agon exists, it is best to trace back the family tree tracing all previous generations prior to the current generation. Most of the history of these later generation family members are mostly a mystery as mostly glints of the family history has since been revealed. It should also be kept in mind that Inhumans age much slower than normal humans, as such the lifespan of each generation is unknown. Likewise, it can be assumed that most of these prior generations are now deceased unless otherwise stated.; The current House of Agon can be traced back at least two generations, there were at least four different families that produced offspring who would comprise of the original house. These were Symak and Tanith who begat Agon and his brother Korath; Magnar and Zeta who spawned Mander and Rynda; Kobar and La also produced Azur and Ambur; and an as yet unidentified family possibly spawned two children, one of which was identified as Quelin the other is unknown, and if he exists if there is a direct connection to the Inhuman royal family is unknown.; Agon later took Rynda as his wife, Korath married a woman named Milena, Mander formed a union with Azur, and lastly Quelin married Ambur.; ===First Generation===; ====Parentage====; As stated before, why the group took the name House of Agon and when they took this name is a mystery as not much is known about past generations. Likely it was due to the fact that Agon was an expert in genetics, the preoccupation of Inhuman society. Agon and Rynda were apparently the first who began producing offspring, about 100 years ago. Their first child was named Blackagar Boltagon, or simply Black Bolt. Agon decided that he would expose their son to the Terrigen Mist while he was still in the womb. Shortly after Black Bolt was born, they discovered he had incredible powers, that included complete control over the electrons around him as well as a destructive voice that he could not control. Both Agon, as well as the Inhumans Genetics Council came to agree that Bolt needed to be confined until he had control over his powers.; Deciding that the problem was that Black Bolt was exposed to the mists at too young an age, Agon began convincing his family members to have children and expose them to the mists while they were infants. Agon and Rynda had a second child, Maximus who did not appear to develop mental powers after being exposed to the Terrigen Mist. Korath and Milena had a son named Gorgon who was exposed to the mists as an infant. Gorgon developed cloven hooves that could cause massive tremors when stomped. Mander and Azur has their first son Triton and exposed him to the mists when he was an infant as well. However the mists turned Triton into a water breather who needed to remain in an isolated alcove off the coast of Attilan in order to survive. It was because of this, when they had their second son Karnak they did not expose him to the mists. Instead Karnak was sent to Tower of Wisdom where he was trained in various mental and physical disciplines that allowed him to see the flaws in any object. Quelin and Ambur had two children themselves, Medusa and a few years later Crystal, both were exposed to the Terrigen Mists at infancy and developed malleable hair and elemental powers respectively . At some point the House of Agon exposed the dog known as Lockjaw to the Terrigen Mists, the canine developing the power to teleport. Lockjaw was the loyal pet to Crystal, but also obeyed most of the royal family as well.; During this period the parents of the House of Agon saw that their children were educated in the ways of the Inhumans and tried to keep them out of trouble. Particularly Maximus, who was a trouble maker. Meanwhile, Medusa was betrothed to marry Black Bolt, when she reached adolescence she made time with his brother Maximus. During this period the primary rivals to the House of Agon was the House of Phaeder. When it was discovered that Phaeder was conducting scientific experiments that were against Inhuman law, Agon mercilessly persecuted him. Phaeder was eventually found guilty of his crimes, but faked his death in order to leave Attilan and continue his experiments in secret.; ====Taking Power====; Black Bolt remained in isolation until he reached the age of 19 and mastered the ability to remain silent. It was then he was physically introduced to his extended family. Jealous of his brother from the start, Maximus used a device to try and force Black Bolt to speak, hoping that the destructive power of his voice would eliminate any chance of Blackagar succeeding as ruler of the Inhumans. However Bolt's cousins came to his aid, stopping Maximus before he could succeed. Young and headstrong, when the young Inhuman royals learned that their cousin and ruler had hidden the Slave Engine, the Inhumans most powerful weapon, in order to usher in an age of peace, they boldly confronted him. This led to a battle between the king and Black Bolt. Because he was weakened from hiding the engine the king was easily defeated in combat by Black Bolt. Medusa then witnessed as Black Bolt to the Himalayan Mountains. Black Bolt disposed the king by uttering his name, devastating him in a powerful sonic blast and leaving him for dead. This shameful chapter in Inhuman history was then covered up, with Black Bolt's father apparently taking up leadership of the Inhumans. The former ruler referred to only as the "Unspoken". However this event would have far reaching consequences many years in the future. Apparently it was at this point that Agon took over as ruler of the Inhumans.; As they grew older, Black Bolt and his brother Maximus shared a brotherly bond that slowly got soured with age, particularly with the awakening of Maximus' mental powers, giving him rudimentary mind control abilities. Later, Bolt discovered his brother attempting to ally himself with the Kree in order to take control of the Inhuman throne. Confronting his brother, Black Bolt was forced to unleash his destructive voice to stop the Kree ship from escaping. This was a two fold tragedy, as the sound of Black Bolt's voice drove Maximus mad, and the crashing Kree ship slew their parents. Suddenly, Black Bolt found himself in line for the Inhuman throne, and ruled over the Inhumans for years. The fates of most of the remaining elders of the Inhuman Royal Family is unknown, as only Korath and Milena have been seen since.; ===Second Generation===; ====Exile====; Attilan remained isolated in the North Atlantic well into the 20th Century until the 1950s when Triton had a run in with a film crew and after experiencing New York discovered the prejudices of the outside world. With Inhuman society being somewhat xenophobic, Black Bolt feared what discovery might bring and began seeking out a new home for his people. Along the way he encountered the Eternals, another secret offshoot of humanity. Their leader Zuras assisted Black Bolt in locating a new home for Attilan in a remote part of the Himalayan Mountains. Black Bolt, with the aid of his best scientists moved Attilan from the North Atlantic to this mountain range. Their travels were hidden with some assistance from the Eternals. Upon safely relocating their home, Black Bolt was celebrated by his people. But this period of happiness would quickly come to an end a few years prior to the beginning of what is referred to as the Modern Age of Heroes.; Due to his crimes against society, Maximus was locked away for years but he eventually used his mental powers to coerce three of the Alpha Primitives slave class. He compelled them to expose themselves to the Terrigen Mists transforming them into an entity known as the Trikon. The Trikon then compelled the Alpha Primitives to revolt against their suppressors. During the ensuing uprising, Medusa attempted to confront the Trikon on a sky sled, but it blasted her ship causing her to crash somewhere outside of the Great Refuge. The crash had stricken Medusa with amnesia and she wandered away from the ensuing battle which was eventually ended, but with Maximus taking control of the Inhuman throne and exiling his cousins. Black Bolt and his family were forced out of Attilan and spent the ensuing years searching for sign that Medusa might be alive. Gorgon later returned to Maximus to plea for the freedom of those he held hostage. He learned that his father was slain by the Seeker, an Inhuman loyal to Maximus, when he attempted to break free. In order to ensure the safety of his mother, Gorgon agreed to reign in the House of Agon, particularly Medusa whom Maximus secretly intended to marry.; ====Reunion====; Their search eventually brought the Inhumans to New York City, where they established a temporary home below a Brooklyn tenement slated for demolition. While out exploring one night Crystal happened to cross paths with the Human Torch, member of the heroic Fantastic Four. The pair were smitten by each other from the first, and after a quick chase, Crystal mistook Johnny Storm for an Inhuman due to his flame powers. When Gorgon successfully returned with Medusa, she recognized him as her former foe and a battle broke out. During the conflict, Johnny was able to summon his comrades in the Fantastic Four, while the Inhumans summoned their leader Black Bolt. During the battle the Inhumans deduced that the Seeker was after them when Triton went missing during the ensuing battle. Using Lockjaw they fled the scene by teleporting back to the Great Refuge.; When faced with his insane brother once again, Black Bolt fought through an army of Alpha Primitives and reclaimed the Inhuman crown from Maximus. The Fantastic Four soon discovered and arrived at the Great Refuge and confronted Medusa and the others, Mister Fantastic pleading them to reveal themselves to humanity outside. However Maximus was not totally defeated as he intended to use his Atmo-Gun to wipe out the human race so the Inhumans could take over the entire world. Before Maximus could activate the Atmo-Gun, Black Bolt destroyed the device, saving the lives of every human on Earth. In one last ditch effort, Maximus scored a Pyrrhic victory by activating a device that surrounded Attilan with a "Negative Zone" barrier, forcing the Fantastic Four out while trapping the Inhumans within. Black Bolt and Gorgon then went after Maximus and the Seeker. During the ensuing clash, Maximus briefly took control of Black Bolt's mind with his mental powers. However, when the Seeker tried to shoot Gorgon, he grabbed his cousin and used Black Bolt's tuning fork to deflect the blast. The energies of the Seeker's weapon were redirected into the mind of Maximus driving him even more insane than ever before, and stripping him of his mental powers. Gorgon then slew the Seeker. With the battle over, Black Bolt began focusing on how to free his people from captivity.; ====Freedom====; Finding themselves trapped behind the Negative Zone barrier, Black Bolt began to puzzle out a means to break through the barrier. He got the royal family hard at work to find a solution, but when Karnak tried to find a weakness in the barrier, but failed to produce results. The royal family then try to coax Maximus into revealing a means for them to escape, but they found that he was more insane than ever and was only interested in making toys than helping solve their dilemma. With no other options available, Black Bolt attempted to use his control of electrons trigger an Absorba-Bomb to destroy the barrier. This attempt also failed, and realizing that the Absorba-Bomb could destroy them all Black Bolt injured himself attempting to stop it. As soon as Black Bolt began to recover, Maximus revealed the only means in which the barrier could be destroyed, also revealing to the others the secret of why Black Bolt never spoke. Medusa tried to stop Maximus from speaking, but it was too late and the secret was out: the only way to destroy the Negative Zone barrier was in the destructive power of Black Bolt's voice. Something that could possible destroy them all in the process. With no other choice left to them, royal family and the rest of the Inhumans sought shelter below the city while Black Bolt unleashed the awesome power of his voice. Although Black Bolt succeeded in destroying the barrier, Attilan was decimated in the process. In the aftermath of the battle the Ruling Council of the Inhumans decreed that Black Bolt and the rest of the Royal Family leave the Great Refuge until the city could be rebuilt to its former splendor.; They made a brief stop in Europe before a group of prejudiced villagers mistook them for witches and attacked, forcing them to defend themselves and leave. They soon found a new refuge before Black Bolt allowed Crystal to venture on her own to find the Human Torch, whom she had fallen in love with. Their island hide away was soon invaded by soldiers of an unspecified country who sought to secretly deploy an "Atomic Curtain" on the island in direct contravention of NATO agreements. The royal family attacked the invaders, destroyed their weapon and sent them fleeing into the ocean. Bolt and the others soon had to deal with two invaders, the first being the costumed hero known as the Black Panther who legally purchased the Inhumans temporary island home. He battled it out with the Inhumans until they realized they had mutual allies in the Fantastic Four. When Black Bolt alerted them that the island was also being invaded by the Microverse tyrant known as the Psycho-Man, Medusa and the others worked together to invade the invader's secret hideout. They were soon joined by the Human Torch and the Thing. The gathered heroes soon fended off against the Psycho-Man's minions Live Wire, Ivan and Shell-Shock. While they were also held back by the Psycho-Man's Emoto-Casting Control-Box, Gorgon arrived and destroyed the device. However before the Inhumans and their allies could apprehend the Psycho-Man he fled back to his native Microverse.; When the villain known as Plantman encroached their island in his sub, Black Bolt sent Triton to investigate. Later when Triton was captured along with the Sub-Mariner, the others attempted to rescue them. Despite their efforts, the Plantman managed to escape in the ocean. However, Triton and the Sub-Mariner managed to free themselves and stop the Plantman's schemes.; ====Return to Attilan====; With Attilan completely rebuilt, Black Bolt, Gorgon and Lockjaw were the first of the royal family to return to their fabled city. Upon his arrival he was asked to try six Inhumans, Falcona, Leonus, Aireo, Timberius, Stallior and Nebulo, who committed acts of treason in his absence. Black Bolt found them guilty and had Lockjaw exile them to the Un-Place, a dimensional prison. However the rogue Inhumans were soon freed thanks to the machinations of Maximus who manipulated events that the gamma spawned monster known as the Hulk got trapped in Un-Place as well and assisted in breaking the rogue Inhumans free. Maximus and his minions then manipulated the Hulk into breaking through a barrier that protected a powerful weapon created by the Inhuman known as Romnar. With this weapon, Maximus threatened Attilan, demanding that he be reinstalled as king of the Inhumans. While the Hulk went on a rampage, defeating the minions of Maximus, Black Bolt dealt with his mad brother, disarming him of Romnar's weapon. With the Hulk still causing damage to the city, Black Bolt then battled the neigh invincible brute. Not only was Black Bolt able to spar with the Hulk one-on-one, he was able to drive the creature from his domain, restoring peace to the kingdom once again.; Despite this defeat, Maximus managed to retake the throne of Attilan, using hypnosis to defeat the rest of the royal family and take them prisoner. By this point, Medusa's sister Crystal was asked to join the Fantastic Four to take the place of the Invisible Girl who had just discovered that she was pregnant. The group learned of the fate of Black Bolt and his family before being captured themselves. With no opposition, Maximus began preparing to unleash his massive Hypno-Gun to enslave the entire world. Ultimately, the royal family freed themselves and the Fantastic Four broke out of their prison. The two groups then stormed the Hypno-Gun, destroying the device before Maximus could employ it. In the ensuing battle Maximus, and his loyal renegades managed to escape in a ship. Not long after being restored to the throne, the royal family defended their kingdom from the Silver Surfer who was tricked into attacking the Great Refuge by Maximus. The Surfer was ultimately driven from the region. Apparently by this point the Inhumans had developed a working relationship with the spy agency known as SHIELD. Following their battle with the Silver Surfer, Medusa, Gorgon and Black Bolt paid a visit to the SHIELD hellicarrier to report their battle with the Silver Surfer to SHIELD director Nick Fury. Black Bolt was later injured during a radiation experiment. Only the combined powers of both Crystal and Gorgon could heal him of his injuries. He sent Medusa to collect Crystal, who was forced to return home over protests from her boyfriend the Fantastic Four's Human Torch. Eventually Crystal's unexplained absence caused the Human Torch to come seek her out in Attilan. After an ensuing battle that was broken up by both the Inhuman royal family and the Fantastic Four the truth was revealed. With Black Bolt now cured, Crystal was allowed to leave and was reunited with the Torch.; Not long after this, the Fantastic Four's long time foe Doctor Doom was amassing a cache of powerful weapons. To this end he also stole the Helix of Randac from the Citadel of Science in Attilan. When this was discovered the royal family sent Lockjaw to collect Crystal from the Fantastic Four. Upon Crystal's arrival, Black Bolt had Medusa and the others informed her of the theft. The House later rescued the Fantastic Four and the Black Panther from space following a failed attempt to stop Doctor Doom from stealing the Ultimate Machine on the Moon. They later reconnoitered on the SHIELD helicarrier to plan their next move along with Nick Fury and the Silver Surfer. It was not long until Doom used the Horn of Proteus to summon the sea creatures, including Giganto, upon New York City. Medusa and Black Bolt then returned to Attilan where they provided the Human Torch and Crystal with an Agon-Sequencer to assist them in trying to locate the Helix of Randac. When Doom returned to Earth after stealing the power of the world devourer known as Galactus, the Inhumans stood by while the Fantastic Four dealt with the crisis. However they soon joined in the final battle against Doom in New York City. Black Bolt and his family joined in a frontal assault on Doom and were subsequently slain. However, Doom was ultimately defeated when Mister Fantastic obtained the Cosmic Cube and restored everything to normal, undoing all the carnage Doom had caused and restored Black Bolt and the others to life. Back home, Black Bolt and the royal family joined the Eternal known as Pixie to reign in the rogue Inhuman known as the Yeti who was in a battle with the mutant heroes known as the X-Men. In the aftermath, they revealed to the X-Men the fate of the Cold War era heroes known as the First Line.; After preventing Chinese soldiers from discovering the location of Attilan, Black Bolt and the others were shocked when their home was bombarded by various missiles. They were surprised when they found evidence that the missile attacks were apparently being launched by the Fantastic Four, unaware that it was really the work of Maximus. Black Bolt then brought Medusa, Karnak and Gorgon to the Baxter Building to battle the Fantastic Four, while Triton went to investigate the possible involvement with Maximus. Although the Inhumans battled it out with the Fantastic Four, they stopped when Triton found proof that Maximus was responsible for the attacks and captured him. Later, the international terrorist known as the Mandarin launched an attack on the Inhumans in order to uncover the powerful Eye of Yin which was buried somewhere near Attilan. Black Bolt and the others battled what they thought was the Mandarin to the death, unaware that it was a robot meant to trick them into finding the Eye for the real Mandarin. When they uncovered the Eye, the Mandarin used his rings to draw it to him. Medusa, Triton, and Karnak followed after it and were summarily captured. They were rescued by Black Bolt and Gorgon who knocked the Mandarin out. They then took him away, burying his rings within his hideout.; ====Search for Black Bolt====; Later Black Bolt showed Medusa and the others that he had Maximus kept in stasis in a near death state before leaving to try and find the ideal place to reveal the Inhumans to the world. Gorgon and Karnak had issue with Black Bolt's treatment of his brother as they believed that it could violate his oath that Black Bolt would never kill another Inhuman. When they pressed these concerns to Medusa, she advised them to trust their leader. However the pair freed Maximus, learning too late that Black Bolt's insane brother had gained new mental powers. Upon his freedom, he then used his powers to strike Black Bolt with amnesia while he explored the streets of San Francisco. Maximus then used his powers to force Gorgon and Karnak to fight each other, but his powers were limited against those of the royal family. As such when Medusa came to her cousin's aid, he had to divert his power to her. Ultimately, Maximus gained the upper hand when he enthralled the entire Inhuman population and forced Medusa, Karnak, Gorgon, and Triton into exile once more, sending them fleeing to an island off the coast of China.; After fighting off more Chinese soldiers, the exiled Inhumans recovered a hidden craft and tracked Black Bolt to San Francisco. There they were shocked to find that Bolt had apparently been manipulated into working with activist Lionel Dibbs who was threatening to destroy a local ghetto after the municipal government refused to help clean the area up. Meanwhile, they sent Triton to gather the Fantastic Four to assist them. Medusa and the others attempted to get involved by they were held back by the Asgardian thunder god Thor who had prior dealings with Dibbs in his civilian identity of Doctor Donald Blake. However during the altercation, "Black Bolt" was fatally killed by a bolt of lightning, and the Inhumans discovered that he was an impostor.; Medusa and their others continued their search for Black Bolt, and upon their quest witnessed the return of the Trikon. Soon they were attacked by an army of mutants and learned that Black Bolt was subsequently captured and imprisoned by their leader, the mutant terrorist known as Magneto. Magneto mistook Black Bolt for a mutant and sought to manipulate his powers. Medusa and the others were able to track Magneto back to his hideout where the were quickly incapacitated. However their reunion with Black Bolt caused their leader's memories to return. With Black Bolt appearing to be in his thrall, Magneto forced the Inhuman leader to steal a power source for his new invention, the Universal Machine. While they were gone on this mission, Medusa and the others broke free and battled Magneto's minions. When Magneto and Black Bolt returned, Bolt revealed that he was pretending to be under Magneto's control. In the ensuing battle the energy source became unstable and Magneto was seemingly slain when it exploded.; ====Kree-Skrull War====; At this point the Earth was caught in the middle of the millennia long Kree-Skrull War. Apparently after his encounter with Magneto, Black Bolt managed to track down the Trikon and free Joey from its possession, although the details of this are unrevealed. While they were searching for Black Bolt in San Francisco, the Inhumans had sent Triton to New York to try and obtain the assistance of the Fantastic Four. By fate, Triton instead encountered the Avengers, who were dealing with the backlash caused by a Skrull posing as politician H. Warren Craddock. Regardless of the fact that the Avengers were dealing with the escalating Kree-Skrull War, they agreed to split their forces to assist Triton in finding his leader. Captain America, Goliath and Rick Jones then accompanied Triton back to San Francisco, where they assisted Black Bolt in rescuing Joey from a thug. Flying to Attilan, they found that Maximus had erected a massive barrier around the city again. They were also joined by Thor, the Vision and Iron Man.; Black Bolt took down the barrier with his voice and when his people took arms against him was, for the first time, able to address them with his voice. Somehow not destroying all in his path, Black Bolt ordered his people to take up arms against Maximus. With an army of his people, Black Bolt and the Avengers stormed Attilan. They then discovered that Maximus was once again working with the Kree. Bolt and the Avengers sent the Kree fleeing from Earth once again, causing Maximus to lose his mind once again. With his brothers defeat, Black Bolt regained the Inhuman throne, but was less than happy about the fate of his brother. The Avengers soon parted company and eventually played a part of halting the Kree-Skrull War for the time being. Unknown to the Inhuman royal family, in the aftermath of the Kree-Skrull War, Iron Man gathered Fantastic Four leader Mister Fantastic, Sorcerer Supreme Doctor Strange, Atlantean ruler the Sub-Mariner, X-Men founder Professor X, and Black Bolt together to discuss the outcome of the war. In order to deal with threats of this magnitude in the future they formed Illuminati, but kept their existence kept secret for years. The Illuminati's first order of business was pay a visit to the Skrull homeworld where they issued a warning to Emperor Dorrek to stay away from Earth. When Dorrek refused, Black Bolt destroyed his ship, but when the Illuminati attempted to flee Skrullian space, they were shot down and taken prisoner. Black Bolt and the others were then experimented on for days, but ultimately Iron Man managed to break them free. They then recovered a ship and succeeded in escaping the Skrulls and return to Earth. Black Bolt and the others were unaware that the Skrulls succeeded in learning the secrets to their super-human abilities, knowledge that would have far reaching consequences many years later.; ===The House Expands===; ====Project Revival====; It was about this time that Crystal's long association with the Fantastic Four was quickly coming to an end as the pollutants from the outside world threatened to have a fatal effect on her, forcing her to eventually return home. With an unexpected detour through Australia, Crystal saved the life of the "mutant" known as Quicksilver who was seriously injured battling the Sentinels. Taking Quicksilver back to Attilan, the two fell in love while Crystal was nursing him back to health. When the Human Torch eventually came to Attilan to be reunited with Crystal, the Inhuman royal family tried to stop him in order to explain to Johnny Storm what was going on with Crystal during he absence. This led to an altercation between the Torch and the Inhumans. As expected, this led to the Torch and Quicksilver trading blows. However the fighting quickly ended when Maximus launched his latest scheme, resulting in Crystal being kidnapped by the Alpha Primitives and taken deep below Attilan. When Pietro and Johnny went after her they found her in the clutches of Omega, an android created by Maximus. Black Bolt led his people against the Alpha Primitive uprising, but Omega proved almost unstoppable. The rest of the Fantastic Four soon arrived to lend a hand and Crystal was eventually freed from the creature. Soon Crystal realized what was powering Omega and making him neigh indestructible: The Inhumans collective guilt over the willful enslavement of the Alpha Primitives. Once Crystal got the Inhumans to all collectively recognize their guilt, Omega fell inert and the Alpha Primitives ended their uprising. In the aftermath of the battle, Crystal and Johnny realized that what they had between each other was over and parted as friends. Black Bolt then decreed that Medusa, having developed an immunity to the outside pollutants, was to venture out and act as an emissary of the Inhumans in the outside world. Medusa to this end, joined the Fantastic Four, taking the place of the Invisible Girl who had recently left the team.; Not long after this, the Avengers were captured during a conflict between the villainous time travelers known as Zarrko the Tomorrow Man and Kang the Conqueror. Iron Man enlisted the aid of Spider-Man to assist in stopping them in Zarrko's future of the 23rd Century, but both were incapacitated. Spider-Man managed to escape back to his own time, and prevent the unleashing of various "Time Bombs" that regressed time backwards to make the modern age more easily conquered. With the aid of the Human Torch, Spider-Man stopped all the bombs. Needing to get back to the future to save the Avengers and stop his foes, the Torch suggested to Spider-Man that he enlist the aid of the Inhumans to help him. Travelling to the Hidden Land, Spider-Man pleaded his case to Black Bolt who agreed to help. They used Maximus to reconfigure on of the Time Bombs to send Spider-Man, Black Bolt, Karnak, Gorgon and Triton to the 23rd Century. They arrived just moments before Spider-Man originally fled back to his own time to stop the time bombs. They then got the drop on Zarrko and Kang. While they managed to stop Zarrko, Kang escaped them when their plan began to fail. Spider-Man and the Inhumans then freed the Avengers and returned to their own time. Later, when the Dark Dimension ruler Dormammu attempted to invade the Earth, the royal family defended Attilan from Dormammu's demons until his threat was ended by the Avengers and the Defenders. Black Bolt later called Medusa back home for an update on Project Revival, a plan to reunite Mister Fantastic with his estranged wife the Invisible Girl.With the assistance of the Sub-Mariner, the Inhumans managed to make Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Girl realize that they belonged together and reconcile their relationship.; ====Medusa's Return====; The Inhumans soon discovered the existence of Counter-Earth, a perfect duplicate of Earth that was on an opposite rotation of the sun. Seeking to explore this world as a potential new home for the Inhumans, the royal family had to deal with the sudden arrival of the Hulk in their kingdom. However after Black Bolt swatted the Hulk away from a crash landing in the center of Attilan, the brute reverted back to his human form of Bruce Banner. Bolt and the others then tried to make Banner at home, but he eventually transformed into the Hulk again when being harassed by some locals. In the ensuing battle, the Hulk was forced aboard the ship meant to explore Counter-Earth and it was launched into space, ending the Hulks threat for a time.; Crystal's wedding day quickly approached, Black Bolt invited members of the Avengers and the Fantastic Four to witness the wedding. Unknown to them at the time Maximus had revived the robot known as Ultron to strike back at his enemies. Instead, Ultron betrayed Maximus to get revenge on his own. Taking control of the Omega android, Ultron then attacked the gathered heroes. Ultron attempted to defeat his foes by utilizing the mental beam to incapacitate them. This proved to be Ultron's ultimate failing, as it awoke the comatose Franklin Richards who used his powers to seemingly destroy Ultron. With the threat over, Crystal and Pietro were married by Black Bolt before all their friends without further incident.; Attilan was later taken over by the Human Torch's old foe Xemu ruler of the Fifth Dimension. Xemu had constructed a massive weapon called the Thunder Horn which he intended to use to conquer the Earth by magnifying Black Bolt's destructive vocal chords. When Black Bolt refused to comply, Xemu forced Quicksilver to recover Medusa by threatening to kill Crystal if he did not comply. With no other choice, Quicksilver went to New York and obtained the Fantastic Four, who agreed to go with him. The Fantastic Four were later captured, but with the aid of Triton, and the Fifth Dimension's Valeria and Phineas the Fantastic Four freed themselves. Meanwhile, Medusa was willing to sacrifice his life in order to allow Black Bolt to remain defiant toward Xemu. In order to try and force Black Bolt's hand, Xemu attacked a Chinese military base causing the super-power to launch fighter jets towards Attilan to investigate. However, the Invisible Girl had stowed aboard the FF's plane and used the Thunder Horn to boost her powers of invisibility to hide Attilan from view. When Xemu realized Black Bolt still refused to act, he fled back to the Fifth Dimension where he was defeated by both the Human Torch and Quicksilver. After the Fantastic Four and the Inhumans defeated the last of Xemu's troops, the FF welcomed Sue back to the group full time. But before they could rename themselves the Fantastic Five, Medusa informed them that she had decide to return to her people and be by Black Bolt's side. Her decision was met with the FF's blessings before they returned home.; ====War of the Three Galaxies====; Medusa's return to Attilan was hardly a quiet one as the Inhumans were soon attacked by the Negative Zone creature known as Blastaar who was revived by the Kree. The royal family failed to stop Blastaar from activating the Kaptroids, robots constructed and hidden deep below Attilan by the Kree for the purposes of rounding up the population and imprisoning them. With his mission complete, Blastaar fled the scene leaving the Inhumans to fend for themselves. While Black Bolt battled the Kaptroids, Medusa and the others attempted to deactivate the device that summoned them. Upon destroying the device, the Kaptroids fell inert. Attilan was then struck by a series of tremors prompting Black Bolt and the rest of the House of Agon to travel to New York and seek out the help of the Fantastic Four. Their arrival coincided with the arrival of the Kree warrior known as Shatterstar who was dispatched to Earth to collect the Inhumans to use as cannon fodder in the so-called War of the Three Galaxies. Attacked in the street of New York, the Inhumans were assisted by Falzon, Shatterstar's father, who was sympathetic to the Inhumans plight. Despite this assistance, Black Bolt and the others were defeated in Shatterstar's opening salvo. Regrouping, Black Bolt and his family resumed their battle with Shatterstar, ending it when Black Bolt used Shatterstar's own ship to incapacitate their foe. Taking Shatterstar prisoner, the Inhumans and Falzon returned to Attilan only to discover that Maximus had conquered the Hidden Land in their absence.; With Crystal and Quicksilver as his prisoners, Maximus forced the rest of the royal family to surrender. They soon learned that Maximus was working along side the Kree, and had agreed to give them half of the Inhuman population to use in their war in exchange for being able to rule the other half. Black Bolt and the others were imprisoned for nine full days as Maximus forced his people to build a massive ark to send half their people to the Kree war machine. With the help of the few remaining rebels, Medusa and the others managed to break free and seemingly slay Shatterstar. Unaware of this revolt, an increasingly desperate Black Bolt gave in to his disrepair as his people were being loaded onto the ark, and cried out. Black Bolt's voice completely decimated Attilan, and the population was unhappy with the end result of Black Bolt's show of weakness. Ever faithful, Medusa rallied to make her fellow Inhumans realize that Black Bolt acted out of their best interests. When Black Bolt later wrote a proclamation to his people, Medusa read it to them. In light of the attacks from the Kree, Black Bolt had decided to go searching the stars for a new home for the Inhumans to be safe. Medusa, the Inhuman Royal Family and Falzon agreed to join him on this mission and the Kree space ark was rebuild and re-purposed for this very task.; While passing through the Duggil System, the Inhumans ship was shot down over the planet Stent. A planet of purple dust, they were pulled into a massive mechanical insect city run by City-Dwellers of the Stenth. Initially thought to be coming to the aid of the dissidents in the city, Flarn welcomed them when he learned the truth. Later Black Bolt and the others were horrified when Flarn's minions were willing to cripple their own city by blasting away its ghetto in order to deal with the rebel known as Shreel. When Flarn went back on his promise to help the Inhumans repair their ship, Medusa and Black Bolt went out to try and recover it. While outside they encountered Warkon and his army of anarchists who were trying to overthrow Shreel. Learning that Shreel was loyal to the Kree, Bolt and the others joined the fight to overthrow Flarn, however in the aftermath of the battle both Flarn's beetle city, and Warkon's spider city were incapacitated in the process. After crushing the last of Flarn's resistance, the Inhumans and Warkon's anarchists secured a ship to get off planet, unaware that Flarn had betrayed them and programmed it to head to the Kree Space Station Web, the central hub for the upcoming War of Three Galaxies. There they were forced to battle the Kree and their commanding officer Mon-Tog. During the ensing battle, the Inhumans learned that the Kree were enthralling humans on Earth to commit acts to destabilize the Earth in order to make it ripe for invasion. Seeing that they had to return home, Black Bolt and his family fled the space station while Warkon and the last of his warriors sacrificed their lives to destroy it.; Their ship later crash landed in New York Harbor, and after a brief altercation with the authorities, Blackagar and the others tried to make their way to the United Nations Building to warn the leaders of the world of the impending Kree invasion. The Kree in response used their technology to evolve a cockroach into the Pursuer to attack the Inhumans. The creature proved to be powerful and had Black Bolt and the others on the ropes until Falzon was able to incapacitate the Pursuer with insecticide. With their foe temporarily felled, the Inhumans fled the scene to get away from the authorities. Getting outside of the United Nations Building, the Inhumans tried to get the attention of the world leaders, leading to another clash with the authorities. The tension grew higher when Bruce Banner tried to intervene on behalf of the Inhumans but was agitated enough that he transformed into the Hulk. Recalling Black Bolt from a previous battle the Hulk attacked the Inhumans. Using Lockjaw to teleport to a safe location, their battle with the Hulk abruptly ended when a combination of Black Bolt's electron channeling powers and a bolt of lightning altered the Hulk's personality so that he considered the Inhumans his friends and left without further incident. Needing to find a resolution to the War of the Three Galaxies, Medusa and the Inhumans sought out the Kree renegade Captain Marvel. The Royal Family remained on Earth while Mar-Vell and Black Bolt went to confront the Kree directly. There they confronted the Kree Supreme Science Council and exposed member Por-Bat as a Skrull spy trying to instigate the war in order to lead the Kree into a trap. Realizing they almost entered a conflict they could not win, Phae-Dor called off the War of the Three Galaxies, and Black Bolt was returned to Earth.; ====To the Moon====; Still in New York City, Black Bolt, his family and Falzon discovered a Kree bomb that had crashed on Earth. While attempting to disarm the weapon, Falzon was exposed to a nerve gas and required an antidote to save his life. Medusa was sent out to get it and stole it from an ambulance in Brooklyn that was rushing it to a Manhattan hospital to be used on a boy in critical condition after being exposed to a nerve gas himself trying to stop an out of control chemical truck. This led to a battle between Medusa and Spider-Man, whose life was saved by the young man in his civilian identity of Peter Parker when he stopped the truck. Spider-Man followed Medusa to Coney Island where a battle between the wall-crawler and the Inhumans broke out. Ultimately Black Bolt stopped the fighting, and truth was revealed. With Falzon cured, Black Bolt then rushed the rest of the antidote to the boy, saving his life. Black Bolt and the others returned to Attilan to find that the Inhuman known as Thraxon had taken over and rebuilt their home into a massive fortress with the help of the Sphinx. Medusa and the others were incapacitated and turned over to the Sphinx who plotted to use Black Bolt's powers in his satellite to probe the minds of every living being on Earth and learn the secrets of the Ka Stone that gave the Sphinx his powers. Escaping captivity, Crystal enlisted the aid of the Fantastic Four. They defeated Thraxon and followed the Sphinx aboard his space satellite. There they freed Black Bolt and the others and the Sphinx was jettisoned into the void of space. With Thraxon removed, the Inhumans then began to restore Attilan to its former glory.; This moment did not last long as the Inhumans soon began falling ill due to the increasing amounts of pollutants in the air. Medusa and Black Bolt used Lockjaw to teleport to the Baxter Building to seek help from the Fantastic Four, but they were not home at the time. Black Bolt then sent Medusa back home while he went looking for them. Black Bolt was only able to find the Thing, and the pair got sucked into a battle against the villain known as Graviton. During the course of their battle, Graviton's powers raged out of control, transforming him into a massive living pocket universe. The villain attempted to petition Black Bolt for sanctuary in Attilan, but Bolt refused. The battle ended when Graviton quickly became disgusted by what he had become and seemingly committed suicide. Back in Attilan, Medusa was suddenly kidnapped by the rogue scientists known as the Enclave, who were working in league with Maximus. With Medusa as their prisoner, the Enclave scientist began experiments on her. Maximus turned on the Enclave and fought for his people. In the ensuing battle Medusa was rescued and Maximus seemingly sacrificed his life to stop them. With the pollution taking its tole on the Inhumans, the Fantastic Four were sought out to help move Attilan to a new location where its people would not be at risk. The Blue Area of the Moon was selected for its self contained atmosphere. With the help of the Fantastic Four, Medusa and the Inhuman Royal Family moved Attilan to the moon.; Black Bolt then organized a celebration of the Inhumans new home on the moon, where Crystal's daughter was named Luna to commemorate their new home. The celebrations were briefly interrupted when Triton accidentally triggered a hidden crystal that plagued everyone on Attilan with a mass hallucination. Unknown to all at the time, Maximus was awaking from his death like coma and used this moment to use his mental powers to swap bodies with Black Bolt. Maximus successfully posed as Black Bolt for a period of time without arousing suspicions. When the United Nations learned that the Inhumans had relocated to the Moon, they sent the Avengers to meet with them and ensure that their society would not pose a threat to any nation on Earth. Medusa and the rest of the royal family greeted the Avengers to their home, still unaware that Maximus had swapped bodies with his brother. Maximus then started launching meteor attacks on the Earth which were stopped by Thor. When the Avengers began suspecting the truth, he ordered the Inhumans to attack the Avengers. However Maximus blew his cover when he spoke while battling the She-Hulk. Medusa then forced Maximus to reverse the mind swap, freeing Black Bolt from his prison.; Later, when Quicksilver insisted that Luna be exposed to the Terrigen Mists, Crystal fought against it out of fear that her daughter would be mutated into a non-human form. She sought out the aid of the Thing to help stop this from happening. Black Bolt and the rest of the royal family clashed with the Thing and Lockjaw in order to preserve an Inhuman law that stated that the father of a child could choose when and if their offspring could be exposed to Terrigenesis. However the conflict was put to an end when Quicksilver was tricked into thinking that Lockjaw was a humanoid mutated into dog form, making him see Crystal's point of view. Black Bolt later called in a favor from Dazzler to help defend Attilan from the villains Moonstone and Blackout, who were fleeing the authorities on Earth.; ====Marriage of Black Bolt and Medusa====; Finally came the time where Black Bolt and Medusa were to be married after so many long years as a couple. A massive ceremony was held in their honor and a public wedding was conducted. Among those invited to the festivities were the Fantastic Four. However the festivities were marred by an on going battle between the Kree soldier Bel-Dann and Raksor, his Skrull counterpart. Medusa, the royal family, and the Fantastic Four investigated the conflict and were informed by the Watcher that their battle was to determine the victor in the on-going Kree-Skrull War. In order to stop their months long battle, the two groups forced the Kree and Skrull warriors to work together and appear to defeat their mutual enemies. The battle ended with Bel-Dann and Raksor realizing that it was unity was the only way to end the conflict. A solution, sadly, that proved only short lived.; Crystal and Quicksilver's marriage began experiencing trouble not long after this, as Quicksilver began focusing on forming a militia in Attilan. Feeling neglected, Crystal began having an affair with Norman Webster, the neighbor of her sister-in-law the Scarlet Witch and her husband the Vision. The truth came out when Crystal overdose on the drug needed to breath safely on Earth while she was visiting with Norm, prompting Norma to get her back to Attilan on the moon. There the truth came out, and while Crystal's infidelity rocked the royal family, Black Bolt and the others refused to allow Quicksilver to kill Norm for his involvement. This battle led to the Inhumans battling Quicksilver to a stand-still and he sped off vowing to get revenge. Unknown to all at the time, Maximus was using his mental powers to transfer his madness to Quicksilver. Quicksilver then returned to Earth to menace his old allies in the Avengers, and the Fantastic Four, before being captured. In light of this, Crystal demanded that she get divorced from Quicksilver, but the royal family would not allow it due to Inhuman laws set to preserve the "sanctity" of marriage. In response, Crystal returned to Earth and rejoined the Fantastic Four for a time, while the Inhumans took Quicksilver into custody.; Maximus then began focusing his powers on Black Bolt, plaguing him with headaches. Seeking to destroy his enemies, he enthralled Lockjaw and had him send Quicksilver to Earth to capture the Fantastic Four's son Franklin Richards. This kidnapping was interrupted by Franklin's friends the Power Pack as well as the mutant heroes known as X-Factor. Capturing Franklin, Quicksilver and Lockjaw fled back to the moon, taking X-Factor with them. After Pietro escaped both X-Factor and the royal family, the two groups worked together to track him down. Medusa and the others battled Maximus, making his hold on Black Bolt and Quicksilver weaken and he was eventually defeated. Without Maximus' insane influence. Quicksilver quickly returned back to normal. With Quicksilver back to normal, Medusa and Black Bolt ordered Crystal to return home, and when she refused forced her and the Fantastic Four to return to the moon with them. Their returned coincided with the arrival of the High Evolutionary and his army of Gatherers and Eliminators. As part of his so-called Evolutionary War, the High Evolutionary required a sample of the Terrigen Mists. Black Bolt, the royal family and the Fantastic Four fought off the Evolutionary and his minions. In the aftermath of the battle, Black Bolt convinced Crystal to return home.; ====Ahura====; By this point the aging Genetics Council had caused much turmoil among modern Inhumanity with their selective marriage and breeding policies. This came to a head when Medusa discovered that she was pregnant with Black Bolt's child. When they announced to the kingdom this news the Genetic Council objected, for fear that their child could have a destructive voice like Black Bolt, be as mad as his brother Maximus, or both. When they ordered the pregnancy to be aborted, Medusa refused to comply. When Black Bolt refused to support her, Medusa fled to Earth with Gorgon, Karnak, Triton, Crystal and Medusa's midwife Minxi. There they made a makeshift home among derelicts that lived in a dump outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. Bound by Inhuman law, Black Bolt suffered the abandonment by his wife. Meanwhile, Medusa was in the process of giving birth to her son Ahura when she was attacked by an elemental creature. The powerful infant used his powers to slay the creature. Realizing that they could not run from their responsibilities, Medusa and the royal family returned home when Black Bolt managed to track them down. Despite her reservations, Medusa later turned her son over to the Genetics Council for examination. Medusa was present when Black Bolt went to check on his brother and found that he was back in his cell.; Unknown to Black Bolt and the royal family a crooked member of the Genetics Council had sent Ahura to Earth to be used in part of a United States government sponsored genetics experiment. However the ship carrying the boy crashed and the boy was adopted by a couple who found his downed ship outside of the town of Pottersville, raising him as their own they named the boy Pope. Medusa became increasingly depressed and demanded that Black Bolt tell her what happened to her child, but he refused to tell her anything. Taking Medusa's side, both Gorgon and Karnak began searching for clues as to what happened to Ahura. Learning that the child had been shipped to Earth, Medusa agreed to accompany them to search for him. However when Black Bolt learned about this plan, he used his authority to force Medusa to stay behind. Despite Gorgon and Karnak's protest, she refused to disobey her husbands orders and so the pair went to Earth without her. Although the pair eventually found Ahura, and intended to bring the boy home, they realized that he was still at the mercy of the Genetics Council. Instead, they left the boy with his adopted family, informing them of the situation of their child and swore them to keep him safe and out of the public eye in the event the Genetics Council came looking for him.; ====Lunar Threats====; The royal family soon became busy with other threats that distracted them from the fate of her son. Such as when Stane International attempted to dump toxic waste on the moon in an attempt to wipe out the Inhumans to steal their resources. They saved the powerful Star Thief, as well as Marvel Boy, Firestar and Namorita of the New Warriors from the ship as it sped to the moon. After stopping Star Thief's rampage, he, Black Bolt and Firestar destroyed the ship, ending it's threat to Attilan. Black Bolt later welcomed Star Thief to live among them. Attilan then came under threat from the eternal mutant known as Apocalypse, who coerced members of the Inhumans into his shock-troops known as the Riders of the Storm. The group later kidnapped Nathan Christopher Summers, the son of X-Factor's Cyclops in order for Apocalypse to absorb his essence. Apocalypse and his minions then returned to Attilan where they quickly took over and captured many of the Inhumans, including Medusa and Crystal. X-Factor arrived shortly after and teamed up with the rest of the royal family to face off against Apocalypse. Black Bolt and his royal family freed Apocalypse's slaves and assisted X-Factor who triumphed with the aid of the time traveler known as the Askani. But the seeming destruction of Apocalypse was not without a cost as Nathan was infected with a Techno-Organic Virus and had to be taken to the future to save his life.; Not long thereafter the Brethren, single celled organisms hyper evolved by the enigmatic Celestials, crash landed on the moon. When their leader Thane Ector captured Karnak, Quicksilver, and Timberus; Black Bolt and the others contacted the Avengers for assistance. After a brief clash on the moon, the Brethren turned their attentions toward Earth. Eventually Ector and his minions were defeated by the Avengers, who welcomed Crystal into their ranks.; During the Infinity Gauntlet crisis, the death worshiping Titan known as Thanos obtained the six Infinity Gems and used them to kill half of the population of the universe for his lover, Death. Blackagar and the other surviving Inhumans volunteered their skills to help protect the Earth from the galactic upheaval caused by Thanos' rise to power. Eventually, Adam Warlock defeated Thanos and restored all the damage he had done. Immediately thereafter, Black Bolt, Gorgon and Karnak broke up a fight between the Silver Surfer and the ninja warrior known as Midnight Son that literally landed in the Inhumans' backyard. After the fight was over, Black Bolt extended an invitation for Midnight Son to live with his people. Later during the so-called Infinity War, the royal family watched helplessly as the Fantastic Four's headquarters the Four Freedoms Plaza was blown up by an attack. Before they could go and help, they were visited by the Guardians of the Galaxy from the 31st Century who had come seeking a cure for their Inhuman teammate Talon who had contracted the Grail's Disease. There was a brief battle before the truth was revealed. The royal family and the Guardians then had to defend themselves from doppelgangers of the royal family and the Guardians created by the Magus. After these foes were defeated and Talon was cured, the Guardians parted company.; Black Bolt and the others Inhumans then spotted Doctor Doom as he made a trip to the Watcher's citadel and followed after to investigate. There they found that the Fantastic Four and their allies Ms. Marvel and Lyja were charged by the Watcher to stop Doctor Doom who had stolen the powers of Aron the Rogue Watcher. The battle was quickly ended when Black Bolt used his powers and Mister Fantastic's Optimizer weapon to overload Doom's power battery, seemingly vanquishing their foe, although Doom did survive and escaped once again. By this time, "Pope" and his adopted family had relocated to New York. He was in attendance of a South Bronx where the Mayor of New York City was giving a political speech with the Fantastic Four present. Ahura's resurfacing was also detected by the Genetics Council who sent their minions, including a new Seeker to collect the boy. Black Bolt, Medusa and their family came to the boy's rescue and helped protect him along side the Fantastic Four. Ultimately, the betrayer among the council slew his comrades and stole their powers in a bid to also steal Ahura's abilities as well. But this rogue councilman was slain by Ahura himself. When the boy was crowned the new king of the Inhumans, Ahura instead destroyed the royal crown, prompting the Inhuman people to decide to form a democracy.; ====Self Imposed Exile====; Black Bolt and the rest of the royal family went into self exile shortly thereafter. They soon took up residence as part of a New Jersey freakshow so they could hide in plain sight among humanity. Triton briefly left the group to reconnect with sea. While Black Bolt left Earth with Quasar to battle the intergalactic pirates known as the Starblasters. When the Starblasters were finally defeated, Black Bolt returned to his family. Back at his temporary home at the New Jersey freakshow, Black Bolt and his family were visited by the Black Panther who was seeking the whereabouts of the Fantastic Four so that they might help his young super-human charge named Vibraxas. The Inhumans also recommended they take a young Inhuman named Devlor with them. This later led to the formation of the group of youthful heroes known as Fantastic Force.; The Inhumans later learned that archaeologists were about to discover the remains of the Hidden Land in the Himalayas, Black Bolt ventured there and used his powerful voice to cause a massive avalanche that buried all traces of his civilization under tons of rock and ice. Although they were estranged from their people on the moon, the House of Agon were answered a call for help from Star Thief when the hero known as Nova and his rival Nova 0:0 were clashing on the moon. When they finally recognized Nova from their previous encounter with the New Warriors, Black Bolt brought an end to the hostilities and when the royal family teleported back to Earth they brought Nova back with them. When the Fantastic Four's Reed Richards was believed to have been killed in battle, Black Bolt and his family were one of the many colleagues who paid their respects at the funeral.; Shortly thereafter, the Genetics Council of Attilan were approached by Kree refugees following the Kree/Shi'ar War that left the Kree empire decimated. Although their leader General Maston-Dar truly sought refuge, the long history of hatred between the Inhumans and the Kree led to various conflicts that resulted in casualties. Maston-Dar's subordinate Major Tarnok-Kol felt that the Inhumans would not accept them so long as Black Bolt and his family still lived and sent an army of assassins to Earth to eliminate the royal family. This assassination attempt failed and tipped Black Bolt off to the refugee situation in Attilan. Black Bolt and his family went there and later prevented another group of renegade Kree from stealing the Terrigen Mists to try and mutate themselves as well. Black Bolt and his family saved their people once again and the Kree were brought to trail. When Black Bolt forced a confession out of Tarnok-Kol, the Kree realized they ruined any chance they had at living peacefully on the moon next to the Inhumans and left. Following their departure, Black Bolt and his family returned to Earth.; ===Back on Earth===; ====Atlantis Rising====; Soon the sorceress known as Morgan Le Fay rose the undersea kingdom of Atlantis from the ocean floor in an effort to reclaim her ancestral home. This coincided with Reed Richard's father Nathaniel accidentally triggering a trap at the Watcher's citadel on the moon that threatened to destroy Attilan. While the current Genetics Council fled with the Terrigen Mists in order to invade the Earth, the Fantastic Four responded by shrinking Attilan down to size and containing it within a bottle. Sensing that his homeland was in danger, Black Bolt had Lockjaw to teleport him to the moon just moments after Attilan was taken, leaving him with no clue what happened to his homeland. Seeking an alliance with Morgan le Fay to reclaim their ancestral home, the Genetic Councils Arcadius contacted the royal family. He then convinced them that the Sub-Mariner was responsible for the capture of Attilan. Learning that Namor and the Fantastic Four were in England meeting with government officials, Black Bolt and his family teleported there. Black Bolt and Namor soon came to blows before their fight was broken up by the Invisible Woman who attempted to maintain diplomacy in the current crisis. Before they could figure out what was going on, Arcadius contacted Blackagar and his house again asking them to come to him in Atlantis.; Black Bolt and the others were asked to defend Attilan and Atlantis from invaders joining forces with the Genetic Council's elite guard the Crimson Cadre. This led to a clash between the Inhumans and the Fantastic Four and their allies Fantastic Force, Namor, Thor, Kristoff Vernard and Nathaniel Richards. The heroes managed to stop Morgan le Fay, who was banished by the magic of the Ebony Blade. Nathaniel Richards also reversed the shrinking of Attilan causing it to reform on the ruins of Atlantis. While the heroes fled, Arcadius erected a new Negative Zone barrier around Attilan, trapping all the Inhumans inside as the Terrigen Mists began to rupture. The Inhuman royal family soon realized that Black Bolt's tuning fork was seriously damaged in the battle and teleported away before Attilan was completely sealed off. They sought out Crystal who was still a member of the Avengers in the hopes that they could repair Bolt's tuning fork. Their travels through New York were impeded by Arcadius, who used his powers to animate states to try and thwart their progress, but they were rescued by Crystal and Quicksilver and taken to Avengers Mansion. There Black Bolt was examined by the Avenger known as Giant-Man, who was unfortunately unable to make the needed repairs. The Inhumans then moved Black Bolt to Colorado to keep him away from populated areas while his sanity began to deteriorate. Upon learning that Mister Fantastic was found alive and well, the Inhumans sought his aid. With the aid of the Fantastic Four and the Sub-Mariner, the Inhumans managed to subdue Black Bolt and take him back to the Four Freedoms Plaza for treatment. While Bolt's life hung in the balance, Mister Fantastic performed the life saving surgery that Blackagar needed to repair his tuning fork, restoring his sanity.; ====Atlantean Attilan====; After his recovery, Black Bolt and his family came to the aid of the Fantastic Four during the Onslaught crisis, helping the team fend off constructs of their greatest foes created by Onslaught who had kidnapped Franklin Richards and was manipulating his abilities. The Fantastic Four and the Avengers (including Crystal) later seemingly sacrificed their lives to destroy Onslaught. Unknown to all, Franklin Richards saved their lives by transporting these heroes to a pocket universe on a world later dubbed Counter-Earth where they lived parallel lives for months. During the time that Black Botl and the rest of the family believed Crystal to be dead, they apparently found a means of disabling the Negative Zone barrier and return to Attilan. It was around this time that Ahura began showing signs of insanity and the Genetics Council deemed the boy a danger to Inhuman society. With no choice, Black Bolt and Medusa were forced to give up their son and were forbidden from seeing him again. Apparently at this point the royal family were partially restored to power. Although they were viewed as monarchs of the realm and had some governing power, it was apparently at the approval or in conjunction to the ruling council.; When Crystal finally returned from her time on Counter-Earth, Black Bolt and his family were briefly attacked by Thanos who was causing vegetation to grow rampantly across the universe with technology stolen from the Savage Land. Thanos was eventually defeated by the jungle adventurer known as Ka-Zar. Crystal soon reunited with her husband and invited him back to Attilan. Black Bolt and the others regarded the speedsters return tepidly. Later Black Bolt presided of the most recent Terrigenesis, however the ceremony was disrupted by Quicksilver who unknown to all -- was being mentally manipulated by Maximus once again. While trying to flee with a supply of the Terrigen Mists, Quicksilver was subdued by Black Bolt and the others. Realizing what was going on, Black Bolt went to confront his mad brother only to discover he was having his powers boosted by the Fabian Cortez a member of the Magneto's Acolytes who was sent to Attilan under orders from their leader Exodus who found the Inhumans an affront to the mutant race. Maximus then enthralled Black Bolt and most of the royal family, putting Luna's life at risk. Quicksilver broke out of his cell but was forced to face off against Black Bolt. Quicksilver was saved from Black Bolt's destructive voice by his sister Hex powers. Eventually Boltagon and his family shook off the mental control of Maximus, but had to battle both the Crimson Cadre and the Alpha Primitives while Maximus and Cortez attempted to unleash the Terrigen Mists into the Earth's atmosphere. Quicksilver prevented this from happening and Cortez fled, leaving Black Bolt to knock out his brother and imprison him once more.; Black Bolt later presided over Phadros as he had his pregnant wife Thera exposed to the Terrigen Mists. At first it seemed as though the child was born without powers, but unknown to them it formed a bond with Vindicator of the Canadian super-hero team known as Alpha Flight. It was also causing earthquakes in the region. Black Bolt and his people welcomed Heather to their sanctuary, and later welcomed her teammates when they came looking for her. They soon realized the child of Phadros and Thera had the power to control mater with his mind when it animated a statue of Randac and made it go on a rampage. While Black Bolt mentally calmed the child and taught it to control his powers, Alpha Flight and the royal family brought down the wayward statue. Realizing she could not abandon her team to live in Attilan, Vindicator returned with them back to Canada. It's possibly around this time that Black Bolt faced the cosmic being known as Vortex, although this battle is largely unrecorded.; ====War with Portugal====; Eventually a new barrier was erected around Attilan to protected to isolate it from the outside world and keep the pollutants of the outside world out. Black Bolt soon became increasingly uneasy by the appearance of corporate interests that began mining the nearby ruins of Atlantis for Vibranium with backing from the Portuguese army. Black Bolt also became increasingly uneasy as he suspected his brother might be up to a new scheme, and the internal bickering among his family members. Black Bolt later presided over the Terrigenesis of the youthful Inhumans Neifi, Tonaja, Dewoz, Nahrees, Kalikya, and Dinu. The celebration was marred when Dewoz's transformation turned him into an Alpha Primitive, much to the horror of those gathered. Dewoz was then remanded to the caverns below Attilan with the rest of the Alpha Primitives, leaving none aware that this transformation was orchestrated by Maximus in another one of his schemes to destroy his brother and take over the Inhuman throne.; The situation troubled Black Bolt and the others further, leaving them to wonder if the sudden creation of a new Alpha Primitive could spell the end of their civilization. Meanwhile, Dewoze -- endowed with strange teleportation powers -- used his abilities to help Maximus slowly bring about his plan in secret. The Inhumans presence also began to be known to the outside world which was getting increasingly more fearful of the enigmatic Inhumans. As Bolt pondered over problems, Maximus began working with former Russian spy Colonel Stalyenko to launch an attack on Attilan. When the attacks started, the Inhumans were protected by the force field around their city. When Gorgon demanded that they deal with the humans, he was shocked to find that Black Bolt refused to act in any way but a defensive manner. Bolt later sent Mendicus to the United Nations to seek their aid in stopping the attack. This proved to be a fruitless endeavor as the UN sided with the Inhumans but refused to get involved. Worse still, American officials passed on a statue of Abraham Lincoln as a gift to the Inhumans that had a concealed device to further compromise their kingdom -- yet another wrinkle in Maximus' mad scheme. Soon the continued artillery attacks and a lightning storm brought the barrier down upon Attilan. As the Portugese soldiers began breaching the kingdom, Black Bolt still continued to tell his people to stand down and further shocked his family when he ordered the Inhumans to retreat from the conflict.; Boltagon stood back when the Genetics Council later allowed Timberus the right to avenge the death of his brother, but ordered him not to kill anyone but the man responsible. Bolt then had the Inhuman army mobilized but only on the defensive, having their telekinetics put up a new barrier to keep their attackers at bay. During the ensuing confusion, Maximus kidnapped Medusa and held her prisoner in the Alpha Primitives domain, demanding that Black Bolt surrender to his fate, using his resources to shut down all of Attilan's technology. It was soon learned that the fault line that ran under Attilan was at risk of collapse. As his people continued to lose faith in him and their attackers pressed on, Black Bolt began formulating the final gambit to deal with the invaders. However in a rare moment of weakness, the stoic leader of the Inhumans sought comfort from Lockjaw before proceeding. As the royal family continued to pressure Black Bolt into acting, he sent Triton to the Sub-Mariner to try and gain his aid in defending Attilan. However it appeared that Namor was uninterested and only sought to reclaim his former kingdom. As Gorgon began losing his temper, Black Bolt still waited for his piece of his plan to fall into place.; As it turned out, Black Bolt was well aware of the schemes that were being played against him and was secretly plotting a means to victory by first tricking his enemies into thinking they had won. When Medusa managed to reactivate Attilan's systems, Black Bolt had Karnak rig a device to Lockjaw that would allow the entire nation of Attilan to be teleported along with him. By this point Dewoz had broken free from Maximus' control and Black Bolt gave him shelter before confronting his brother. Maximus quickly surrendered to his brother, and Medusa was freed. It was finally then that Black Bolt's master plan was revealed: he was going to destroy Attilan. After breaking the fault lines along Attilan, Bolt had Crystal use her elemental powers to cause massive volcanic upheaval causing Atlantis to sink once more. In the ensuing chaos, Black Bolt had Lockjaw teleport Attilan back to its previous location hidden in the Himalayan Mountains. Although this was a victory, the loss of lives and secrecy surrounding Black Bolt's plan to save his people caused much tension between the other members of the House of Agon.; ====Kree Assassins====; Following their return to the Himalayan Mountains, Black Bolt security within Attilan increased. This extra vigilance proved to be useless against the Kree soldier known as Ronan the Accuser who managed to enslave the Inhumans overnight with his army of warriors. Ronan intended to reign in the Inhumans as cannon fodder for the Kree and use them to destabilize the Shi'ar empire that ruled over his people. To this end, Black Bolt and his people were enslaved and Attilan was converted into a massive warship that was then taken out into space. Finding a Shi'ar vessel, Ronan set the Inhumans to attack it for the purposes of having Karnak and Triton infiltrate the ship when the battle ended. He later fitted Black Bolt with a new antenna that allowed Ronan to monitor things and take control of Black Bolt if he so needed. He then sent Bolt, Medusa and Gorgon to a world where the Shi'ar and the Spartoi were going to conduct a symbolic wedding between their two empires for the purposes of assassinating Shi'ar empress Lilandra Neramani. Their arrival on world was met with a trader named Shakati who helped the three Inhumans blend in as Kree refugees.; While travelling to the ceremony, Black Bolt and his companions were attacked by petty thieves who robbed them. Unable to use their powers lest their cover be compromised, the Inhumans were rescued by Jason of Sparta, the prince of the Spartoi. Jason took them to his lodging and espoused his displeasure with the union between the Shi'ar and the Spartoi, and his people's ruling council's use of a hologram of his father to control the direction of his people. After Jason set them up with new currency, Blackagar, Medusa and Gorgon went to the wedding ceremony to carry out their task. Also arriving were Triton and Karnak who managed to infiltrate the ranks of the Shi'ar Imperial Guard. However, when Black Bolt attempted to assassinate the Empress, she was aware thanks to the clairvoyant powers of the Guard's new recruit Delphos. Although imprisoned in a force field, Black Bolt still had the power to kill Lilandra, but refused to do so. Viewing this remotely, Ronan forced Black Bolt to do so anyway. But as it turned out, "Lilandra" turned out to be the Imperial Guards resident shapechanger Hobgoblin who sacrificed his life to save his queen. Black Bolt and his family then teleported away using the Nega-Bands given to Triton to facilitate a hasty retreat. Back aboard Attilan, Black Bolt challenged Ronan to an honor duel for the freedom of his people. Although Black Bolt won the battle, he was shocked to learn that his people did not want to return to Earth, instead choosing the lives of warriors. While Black Bolt and the House of Agon returned to Earth, the rest of the Inhumans ventured off into space with Ronan to face their destiny among the stars.; ===Return to the Moon===; ====The Hidden Ones====; Black Bolt and his family returned to New York where they appeared before the United Nations to seek asylum on Earth. There they were attacked by bounty hunters sent after them to avenge the death of Hobgoblin. The attack was thwarted by the arrival of the Fantastic Four and the aliens were seemingly slain by orbital defense weapons while they tried to flee. Upon their arrival, the Inhumans soon became subject to increase prejudice instigated by the Hidden Ones, Inhuman/human hybrids who hid among the world's governments who feared that the Inhumans return would lead to their own exposure. When the Inhumans later appeared at a press conference at the Baxter Building, the Hidden Ones used their powers to throw the media into a xenophobic frenzy and later formed a mob outside the Fantastic Four's headquarters. Mister Fantastic tried to petition the United Nations to grant the Inhumans sanctuary, but no country would accept them except for Doctor Doom's Latveria. Soon after, both Reed and Ben went missing and the Baxter Building was attacked by both an angry mob and an army of Guardsmen loyal to the Hidden Ones. To make matters worse, the Invisible Woman's pregnancy was threatening to kill her and her unborn child. Black Bolt and the others looked over Sue as she struggled with her labor pains while the Human Torch sought out help for his sister. With no other choice, Johnny enlisted the aid of Doctor Doom who used a combination of sorcery and magic to save both Sue and her unborn child, whom he named Valeria. While Valeria was being born Mister Fantastic and the Thing defeated the Hidden Ones and exposed them to the world. With the crisis over, Doctor Doom offered Black Bolt and his family a chance to live in Latveria. Black Bolt refused, instead deciding to return the House of Agon to the moon where they began rebuilding Attilan. Eventually the rest of the Inhumans returned to the moon as well. Although the circumstances of their return are unrecorded.; Following another Terrigenesis celebration, Black Bolt arranged for the youths Nahrees, Tonaja, Jolen, San, and Alaris to travel to Earth and attend the University of Wisconsin-Madison on a cultural exchange program in order to better relations between the Inhumans and baseline humanity. Black Bolt and his family were later part of a farewell party for the reality television stars and mutant mercenary group known as X-Statix, who tragically died on their final mission shortly thereafter.; When the newly formed New Avengers to discuss the re-emergence of the superhero known as the Sentry, a superhero whose existence nobody could remember. When they all looked into it, they were shocked to learn that the Sentry had ties to their lives, They managed to track the hero down and try to help him, but Black Bolt and his family were among members of the New Avengers, and X-Men who had come to ensure that there was no danger. As the X-Man known as Emma Frost began trying to repair the Sentry's mind, the heroes were attacked by the Void, the Sentry's dark side personified. Eventually the Sentry's mind was restored to normal, ending the threat of the Void, whom the Sentry seemingly destroyed. Black Bolt and his family later chased the Olympian demi-god Hercules from the moon when he attempted to battle Lockjaw as part of a reality television show that recreated the 12 labors of Hercules.; ====Son of M====; Following the events of House of M, Quicksilver was left powerless and depressed, and after a failed suicide attempt was brought by his ex-wife Crystal to the Inhumans' base for medical assistance. Desperate to regain his powers, Pietro asked Black Bolt for access to the Terrigen Crystals, but was denied due to not being an Inhuman which may cause unforeseen consequences. Pietro was still adamant, and sneaked his way to the Terrigen caves to submerge himself into the mist, not only giving him back his powers but also amplifying them.; With this revelation, Quicksilver manipulated his daughter Luna and pet Lockjaw into assisting him in stealing the Terrigen Crystals and transport them to the island of Genosha where he could repower all of the mutant citizens who had lost their powers. However, the repowered mutants soon began losing control of their powers, attracting the attention of the U.S. Government which decided to send O*N*E out of a concern of mutant resurgence. The Inhuman Communicator, Videmus, admitted to Black Bolt that he allowed Quicksilver to steal the Crystals as he came to the belief that the Inhumans had become weak and lazy due their rich lifestyle and thought this act would help their people strengthen themselves. Furious about this, Black Bolt punished Videmus, before planning to go to Genosha to take the Crystals back before more harm would be done. A battle ensued between the Inhumans, the repowered mutants and O*N*E, which ended with the government successfully seizing the Terrigen Crystals left by Quicksilver.; Soon the repowered mutants began succumbing to the side effects, which left them to be sent to a hospital where their powers faded away once again. The Inhuman Royal Family demanded the government to give back the Crystals but it refused due to security concerns, and in response Black Bolt declared war on the United States. Reed Richards informed the Inhuman king that the effects Terrigenesis had on the mutants was only temporary, and then proceeded to cut all tied with him due his declaration of war. Meanwhile, Quicksilver continued his campaign to spread the Terrigenesis to other people he encountered.; ====Silent War====; The Inhumans wasted no time to start the war against the US. Black Bolt sent a squad led by Gorgon to strike New York as a form of statement to the whole world to let them know that the US government had stolen their property which rightfully belonged to them. However, one of the Inhumans by the name of Jolen got too carried away and killed everyone attending opera which happened to be rich and influential people. The team attempted to escape, only for the Fantastic Four to arrive and capture them. Gorgon willingly surrendered himself and took all of the blame for what had happened, but upon being imprisoned he was forced to undergo a second Terrigenesis as part of Professor Cartwright's experimentations.; This left the Inhumans to attack the Pentagon and retrieve the Crystals on their own. They unknowingly activated a defense mechanism set up by Mister Fantastic which teleported them to the Sentry. He refused to fight them, though he did tell Black Bolt that the goverment would never relinquish their possession of the Crystals. The Inhumans then go to meet Quicksilver, finding out that he had pierced his body with shards of the Crystals to become one with the Terrigen. He explained to them that he had jumped to the future and saw that Attilan would be completely destroyed in a explosion. Medusa's relationship with Black Bolt was also shaken as she began conspiring with Maximus due to her son Ahura being also imprisoned, while the Inhuman king was pressured to go into an all out war. Meanwhile, Cartwright and Maria Hill exposed a group of marines to the Terrigen Mist as a countermeasure against their attackers.; Black Bolt eventually came up with the plan to teleport just outside of Pentagon and attack it. The mission goes as planned as he and his companions were successful in defeating the Mighty Avengers, freeing their brethren and finally get the Crystals back. However, while that transpired, Medusa had Luna use her powers on Maximus to free his true self. Maximus soon freed himself from his imprisonment, just in time to see the Terrigen-powered marines arrive to attack Attilan. Luna was then led to restore Ahura's mind, discovering that he had been infected by Maximus' mind virus that also afflicted Medusa's. Upon killing first of them, the marines immediately surrendered, but after taking them inside, the Inhumans were too late to realize that another one was implanted with a bomb that proceeded to explode immediately. In the aftermath of the destruction, Maximus took the opportunity to take control of the majority of the Inhumans, and with Medusa by his side promised them to rebuild their civilization by taking over the entirety of Earth. The only Inhumans unaffected by him were Black Bolt and Luna, and because of this they were imprisoned.; ===Reigning over the Kree===; ====Secret Invasion====; At some point, Black Bolt was taken and replaced by the Skrulls as part of their mass secret invasion of Earth, intending to turn him into a weapon of mass destruction. The Skrull impostor deposed Maximus as king and regained control of the Inhumans, rebuilding Attilan in the process. In the aftermath of World War Hulk, the Black Bolt impostor revealed himself to the rest of the Illuminati and attempted to kill them, only to be killed himself.; The impostor's corpse was surrendered to the Inhumans, letting them know that the true Black Bolt was missing. Medusa demanded that they strike back at the Skrull Empire for this, but Maximus countered that first they needed to make sure there weren't any more infiltrators. Unfortunately, later that night Maximus' concerns were proved correct as the Skrull sleeper agents struck, attacking the Royal Family itself. Despite being caught by surprise, the Inhumans were able to fight back against their attackers, with Medusa capturing one Super-Skrull with the all of the powers of the Royal Family and torturing him with the Terrigen Mist to tell her where Black Bolt was. After learning all they could, the Inhuman Royal Family decided to embark on a rescue mission to save Black Bolt, unaware that Ahura was also replaced by a Skrull.; They traveled to Kree space where they met with Ronan. Medusa discussed with him the possibility of their two respective races allying themselves against the Skrulls, and Ronan agreed to the union, but he requested that in order to pass this through he married Crystal. Crystal refused to marry the Accuser, but against her sister's wish Medusa agreed to the terms. With that out of the way, the Inhumans began working with the Kree in cracking down the Skrull communications net, finding three weak points that they could exploit at the same time by splitting up. Medusa and Crystal went to Thundra's tribe to take a Skrull communications officer, Karnak and Gorgon went to Rigel-3 to take a Rigellian decoder robot that had successfully cracked the net, and Triton went to Pelagia to take a Skrull beacon. Sadly each of them were faced with difficulties as their cover got blown and struggled with finding their target.; In spite of this, they managed to find their targets and get away with them. With the help of the Skrull officer, decoder and beacon the Royal Family finally located the Skrull Battleship Ryb'ik where Black Bolt was being held. Accompanied by Ronan's fleet, the Inhumans get between the ship and the Amplifier, before attacking it. As they broke inside, Ahura freed himself and his father who proceeded to take out the scientists that had experimented on him. A Super-Skrull tried to threaten him with Ahura's life, only for Medusa to arrive and kill her. The two lovers reunited, and with the Royal Family together again they went back to Attilan where Black Bolt planned to announce his intention for his people to take control of their destiny.; ====War of Kings====; Shortly after Black Bolt's rescue, he decided that it was time for the Inhumans to take over the Kree Empire. He used Maximus' Chamber of Devices to make his people stronger, and soon they converted Attilan into a giant spaceship directed to the Kree homeland of Hala. Fueled by Black Bolt's voice, Attilan passed through a Skrull fleet, destroying it entirely along with the nearby Shi'ar ships. Ronan was notified of their arrival and activated the Babel Spire to form a protective shield around Kree space. The Inhumans sent a team of teleporters to sabotage it, allowing Attilan to arrive to Hala. Upon confronting Ronan, Black Bokt and Medusa told him that they had come for their right to rule the Kree Empire. Ronan willingly abdicated the throne and declared Black Bolt as the new ruler of the Empire. To bring their two races closer together, Ronan and Crystal's marriage proceeded as planned.; During the preparation of the wedding, the Starjammers arrived to seek asylum as they were being pursued by the Shi'ar Fleet. They were able to enter Kree space only because a member of the crew, Polaris was Crystal's ex-sister-in-law, leaving the pursuing Shi'ar ship to crash into the force field. The Starjammers informed the Inhumans that the mad mutant Vulcan had become the new emperor of the Shi'ar Empire and was likely planning to invade the Kree as part of his expansion, though the Royal Family was sure they could handle it. The wedding soon started on the Gon-Ket Glacier, but as Black Bolt walked Crystal to the aisle Hobgoblin had managed to infiltrate Hala and exploded himself to destroy the Babel Spire, disabling the protective barrier. This allowed the Shi'ar Imperial Guard to first destroy the Kree Sentries before crashing the wedding and attacking the Inhumans and the Starjammers. The Inhumans and their allies fought back, killing Nightside and Smasher. Black Bolt himself attempted to fight Gladiator, though he was stunned by White Noise, giving Gladiator the opportunity to send the Inhuman king crashing into the palace. Impulse also burned through Gorgon's leg, Mentor was able to kidnap the former empress Lilandra, and three other Guardsmen heavily wounded Ronan as he used his body to keep Crystal safe. The Imperial Guard deemed the damage they delivered enough and that they made Vulcan's message clear, proceeding to depart soon after. Medusa was determined to not let the Shi'ar get away with this and on behalf of the Kree and the Inhumans declared war on them.; The Shi'ar continued with their war against the Kree by detonating multiple Nega-Bombs in the latter's space, going into a full-blown war. The Inhuman Royal couple made a galaxy-wide broadcast to all Kree citizens, announcing that due to the attacks of the Shi'ar they were now at war, but promised they would protect their empire and win the war. Sadly this did little to reassure the Kree as they blamed the Inhumans for all of this. The Royal Family knew this well, as they were outsiders who took the Kree Empire by force and disrupted their peaceful lives all of a sudden. Both Karnak and Gorgon suggest to quickly be done with the war, as they shouldn't waste precious time which could used to gain full trust of the Kree and fulfill the plans they have for the race. This problem would be partially resolved by Crystal who was present at a hospital to stay at her husband's side. There she came across a massive crowd of injured Kree who had arrived to the hospital to learn of Ronan's situation and to get medical help, and spoke out to them. She told them that the Inhumans had arrived not to conquer them, but to serve their original purpose, that being serving the Kree. She used her elemental powers to provide to the patients, before explaining that their figurehead Ronan had willingly relinquished the throne to Black Bolt because he truly believed the Inhumans were the Kree's future, and the true reason the Shi'ar Emperor Vulcan had attacked them was because he actually feared what the unified power of both Kree and Inhuman would be like. Polaris had Crystal's speech broadcasted to the whole empire, causing most of the Kree to warm up to her. The Royal Family soon moved to their planned counterattack, utterly obliterating the Shi’ar’s second battlegroup comprised of sixty-five ships at Radius Eighteen with their newly-built Chorus Sentries. At the same time, Triton led the New Inhuman Elite into assisting the Starjammers in breaching a Shi'ar Ionclad and steal the data about Lilandra's current location.; Thanks to the Inhumans' strong, inspirational and focused leadership, the Kree fought with a greater strategic tenacity than seen in the last sixteen decades, slowing down Vulcan's conquest though his army still outnumbered them. Crystal kept her husband company in the hospital, keeping him updated on the current status of the war. Ronan commended her for her steadfast approach to their situation and supportive attitude towards the commoners. This war had greatly interfered with the Inhumans' Uplift Program, a secret project that aimed to jumpstart the Kree's evolution through the use of the Terrigen Mist which would indeb them to the Royal Family, but had hit a roadblock as the Kree proved to be immune to Terrigenesis. Crystal became overly concerned about the fate of the Kree, as she feared that the Inhumans may doom them, but Black Bolt assured her that they knew what was best for them. Luckily for them, the Shi'ar were overexerting themselves to fight the war, with them losing more ships than they could produce and inside conflict arising. Crystal admitted to a recovering Ronan that the Uplift Program produced no results and believed that they needed to fix this problem soon. Ronan told her how Black Bolt had some opportunities to take the advantage of the war, to which she responded that her brother-in-law wished for absolute minimum casualties and was waiting if the Starjammers would succeed in rescuing Lilandra.; Unfortunately, Lilandra was assassinated during her attempt to retake the throne. With the means to end the war prematurely and without bloodshed gone, Black Bolt and the Royal Family resorted to their contingency plan. This plan involved launching Attilan straight into the Shi'ar armada led by Vulcan, and detonate their secret weapon, the T-Bomb which would unleash the Terrigen Mist on the whole universe, turning everyone into Inhumans and taking away any difference between, as in their eyes it was the source of all conflict, and in doing so they hoped it would establish universal peace. Crystal and Ronan objected to this, due to going against the Inhumans' culture, as it would forcefully change everyone against their will, while the Kree would be left behind. Black Bolt stood by this decision and the Royal Family proceeded as planned. Upon entering the Shi'ar Galaxy, at which point they finally launched the T-Bomb, but to Medusa's shock, the rest of the Family revealed that in order to detonate it Black Bolt had to be strapped to it and use his voice. She pleaded her husband to not do it, only for him to bid her farewell ans preparing to sacrifice himself. However, as he piloted the T-Bomb into garnering enough power to explode, Black Bolt was intercepted by the Shi'ar emperor himself, Vulcan.; The two kings started to fight through an exchange of energy blasts, with Vulcan accusing Black Bolt of being just as much of a genocidal monster as he was, believing that the bomb served to completely annihilate his army. Their battle caused the T-Bomb to malfunction, leading to the Royal Family to have an infighting as Medusa was outraged for not being told of the full plan, though after calming down she decided to respect her husband's wish. Baffled by this, Crystal refused to let this happen and had Lockjaw teleport both of them to the T-Bomb. Back to the T-Bomb, Vulcan prepared to finish Black Bolt for good, only for the latter to shout "NO!" at him, rendering the Omega-level mutant just a skeleton. In that moment, Crystal and Lockjaw arrived, and she immediately proceeded to use her powers to render the Terrigen Crystals inside the T-Bomb inert. She told Black Bolt that although it was his duty as king to make hard decisions, it wasn't up to him to decide to transform everyone into Inhumans as it wouldn't lead to peace and he wasn't a god. He understood this, but just as they were about to teleport away with Lockjaw, Vulcan reformed himself and grabbed hold of Black Bolt, leaving Crystal and their pet to teleport away by themselves. Vulcan threatened to kill his family with the bomb, and in response Black Bolt again opened his mouth. The T-Bomb then finally exploded due to system overload, not only destroying 87% of the Shi'ar fleet, but also opening a hole in the universe. Crystal and Lockjaw returned to Attilan, bringing her sister the news of her husband's sacrifice. Thanks to the bomb's devastation, the Shi'ar surrendered, marking the end of the war and the Kree Empire's victory.; ====Realm of Kings====; In the aftermath of the war, the Inhuman Royal Family became adored by their Kree subjects. The Royal Family quickly took advantage of this by appointing various Inhumans as consuls on each Kree world, while Gorgon led the Inhuman Elite into policing those worlds. A mourning Medusa also took her husband's place as their monarch, but didn't wish to stay in this position for long as she sent Triton and his team to search for Black Bolt in the newly opened Fault, and sought to raise Ahura as the next heir to the throne. Not all was well, as despite the public approving of their governance, the Kree aristocracy began resenting the Inhumans due to them now being treated as commoners. Suddenly, Hala and Attilan came under attack by Devos the Devastator's army as he wished to punish the Inhumans for starting a war that costed countless lives.; In that moment, the Mighty Avengers arrived to accompany Quicksilver as he wished to talk to Crystal, and decided to help with the attack. The Inhumans did not appreciate this, as they already had the situation under control and saw their help as interfering with their attempt to uphold their image. Still, the two groups worked together to take the invader down, after which the Avengers' leader, Hank Pym, apologized for their interference, explaining to Queen Medusa that they had arrived to bring Quicksilver. At the same time Devos attacked, Crystal and Ronan were cornered by a group of hostile Alpha Primitives in the Terrigen Chambers, but were saved by the intervention of Quicksilver who was dismayed to learn that his ex-wife had remarried. He explained to Crystal that he had come to repair his relationship with the Royal Family after it was revealed that the one who had stolen the Terrigen Crystals had been a Skrull impersonating him, and to make amends gave the Inhumans a cache of Xerogen Crystals the Avengers had found on Earth.; In the following days, more and more Alpha Primitives began uprising, which soon came to involve acts of terrorism against the Kree, a clear attempt to cause Inhuman dissentient. The Royal Family worked hard to squash this problem, with Gorgon's team fighting against the Alpha Primitives, while Crystal and Ronan investigated what was causing the mindless slave caste to suddenly become hostile. The couple discovered that the Alpha Primitives were being affected by an Omni-Wave Projector and tracked its source to a hidden lab operated by former prime minister Zarek and scientist Vere. They led the Kree soldiers into an ambush, though on Crystal's orders they to do it in a non-lethal way so no casualties would be made. The couple confronted Zarek who did not hide his resentment towards the Inhumans and the Kree loyal to them, which earned him a strike from Ronan. After Crystal decommissioned the Omni-Wave Projector, which pacified the Alpha Primitives, they attempted to take in doctor Vere, only for him to collapse dead on the spot, at which point it was revealed that he was in actuality an android constructed by Maximus. Meanwhile, Triton's search for Black Bolt concluded upon discovering that the T-Bomb's ecothech capacitors had been repeating projections of Black Bolt's fight with Vulcan, and came to believe that his king was truly gone.; Soon, Crystal, Gorgon and Ronan led the Kree soldiers and the Inhuman Elite to arrest Maximus in his Chambers of Devices. To get away from them, Maximus unleashed Omega, a Chorus Sentry and his hypno gas to stall them to no avail. They were able to destroy everything he threw at them, but as they cornered him, Medusa teleported between them with Lockjaw and told her family members that Maximus had been acting under her orders. She explained that she had Maximus orchestrate these attacks for the Inhumans to solve in order to gain the Kree's trust. Gorgon and Crystal were furious at this revelation, but before they could discuss things further, Triton's ship crashed on Attilan's dock. The Royal Family went to save Triton and his crew, only to be confronted by a monstrosity that began attacking them. Triton informed them the creature used to be the crew which were mutated by the mysterious energy emanating from the Fault, which surprised Ronan as the Kree were currently unable to mutate. The Royal Family were able to kill the creature, and following that Medusa made an announcement to all Kree citizens. She told them how these recent attacks only served to strengthen the union between the Inhumans and the Kree, before revealing the mutagenic properties the Fault had on the Kree, promising them to study it in order to finally allow the Kree to evolve. This all served to make the Kree dependent on the Inhumans as only they were immune to the Fault's radiation, which furthered angered Crystal and Gorgon due to deceiving the citizens for the sake of power. In response, Medusa reminded them that she was in charge of not only the Royal Family, but of the Kree Empire, and they had no choice but obey her orders.; ====Thanos Imperative====; A universe inhabited of corrupted monstrosities was discovered on the other side of the Fault which they began passing through to invade Reality-616. One such inhabitant was a variant of Quasar which prompted Gladiator to gather all major cosmic powers, including the Inhumans of the Kree, to prepare to fight the invaders from the other reality. To their horror, they found the Universal Church of Truth had brought several worlds of their converted worshippers and exploded them all, widening the Fault even more. This allowed for an entire armada of monstrous creatures to immediately pass over to the 616 universe, and proceeded to attack everyone gathered. Medusa made a transmission to everyone available to alert them of what was transpiring, right before the Royal Family and their Kree and Shi'ar armies fell under the attack of the monstrous invaders. They fought back against them, but found it difficult to kill these monsters.; As they were being overwhelmed, Gorgon forced Medusa to evacuate the flagship, while Triton and his men remained behind to continue the battle. However, the immortal invaders kept coming through, and eventually all allied forces had to momentarily retreat to form a better strategy. The leader of the Negative Zone army, Blastaar, was uncooperative due to looking down at the Inhumans for forcefully overtaking both the Kree and Shi'ar Empires, provoking an infighting which was broken up by Nova. He told everyone gathered the forces of this Cancerverse were after certain people, and formed a plan to get inside the other universe and take out their leader. To achieve this, Nova recruited some of the most powerful individuals active in space, among them Ronan the Accuser, to form the Annihilators.; The Annihilators entered the Cancerverse and found that its inhabitants were after the Avatar of Death, that being Thanos who had already been brought there by Star-Lord, but failed to take out their leader, Lord Mar-Vell. With the Cancerverse's Galactus Engine approaching, the Inhuman Royal Family were forced to hold the line alongside the other armies, while Nova went back in to help Star-Lord. They assisted their reality's Galactus in battling his weaponized counterpart, though Blastaar abandoned the war and fled. Thankfully, Star-Lord, Nova and Thanos were able to return death to the Cancerverse, killing all of its inhabitants and finally ending the conflict, albeit at the cost of being left stranded there. In the aftermath of the war, Medusa and the other Inhumans held a memorial for the heroes lost during the event. Peace did not last long, as Blastaar soon led his Negative Zone Hordes in attempt to conquer the Kree Empire. The Inhumans fought the Negative Zoners, with Medusa herself fighting Blastaar. At first he had the upper hand, until Cosmo reassembled the Annihilators who managed to beat Blastaar and his hordes. The Negative Zoners were repelled, and peace returned to the Kree Empire for now.; ===Universal Inhumans===; ====Return of Black Bolt====; Black Bolt had in fact survived the explosion, but had been unconscious and trapped within the Fault during his absence. Lockjaw sensed his master was still alive after he woke up, and immediately proceeded to look for him. He teleported to the current location of Black Bolt, who had been fighting the hostile entities there, and finally brought him back to Attilan, right in the middle of a council meeting discussing the necessity of humanitarian aid. The Inhuman King was at last reunited with his family, but during his time in the Fault he was made aware of his destiny as the prophesized Midnight King, and in that moment they knew that it was time to leave Hala and go back to the moon for the Summoning. They appointed Ronan as regent of Hala, and despite the council's protest, the Royal Family soon departed on Attilan, leaving the Kree to govern themselves again. Crystal, however, refused to go with them, as her love for Ronan had become true, and decided to stay bedside her husband.; Prior to leaving the moon to takeover the Kree, the Inhumans tasked Dal Damoc to remain behind to await for the Time of the Gathering. That time came with the arrival of the Universal Inhumans, a vast organization comprised of the other four races part of the Kree's Metagenesis experiments, those being the Incentaurians, the Moord, the White Room and the Direst Wraiths. It was also revealed that in order for the Inhuman races to remain united and for prophecy of the Midnight King to pass, Black Bolt was betrothed to the queens of the other races, Oola Udonta, Aladi Ko Eke, Onomi Whitemane and Avoe, which left Medusa quite upset. Their return coincided with the recent attacks of the four remaining members of the Interdimensional Council of Reeds who wished to siphon the power of the Blue Are of the Moon, alongside the other three cities for their own objectives. One of the Reeds, Reed Richards of Earth-25990, would be killed by the Universal Inhumans just prior to the return of the Royal Family.; ====War of Four Cities====; The Inhumans were among the heroes to oppose them, and with the help of Reed Richards' Future Foundation prepared to thwart the Reeds' plan by first flying Attilan above the Forever City, another city that was being used for energy siphoning. Soon, they began to aerially assault the city alongside the Future Foundation, going against the forces of the evil Reeds, the High Evolutionary and Mole Man, but during the battle the Inhumans teleported their reality's Reed, along with Spider-Man and Nathaniel Richards, to Attilan as they wished to speak to him.; Aboard Attilan, Black Bolt explained to Reed that the reason the Inhumans were fighting the his evil variants was because their plan was interfering with theirs, and although their goals currently aligned with those of the heroes', they were unwilling to let Reed proceed further with his own interference. Eventually, the Universal Inhumans were able to take down their enemies, successfully capturing Reed Richards-4280, Reed Richards-11470, Diablo and the Mad Thinker, the latter two having betrayed the Future Foundation during the conflict to get their revenge on their nemesis. Unfortunately, Reed Richards-Alpha had managed to evade capture and even enslave Doctor Doom, though the Inhuman Royal Family assured Reed Prime that they would inevitably capture him as well. With the conflict over for now, Reed and his companions proceeded to leave Attilan through Eldrac the living portal.; The Kree were still indignant at the fact that the Inhumans had governed them only to immediately leave, and demanded that Ronan do something in retaliation. Ronan agreed and decided to do a stealth attack on Attilan, but before proceeding with the plan he gave Crystal the opportunity to go back to the Royal Family. To his surprise she refused as she done with running away, and only wished to stay by his side. With her blessing, Ronan and his crew landed just outside of Forever City in a ship disguised as a meteor, and soon launched their attack. They successfully broke inside Attilan where they grabbed the two imprisoned Reeds who they proceeded to bring to the Ascension Machine in the Forever City. There Ronan used the Supremor Seed that had been hidden within his Universal Weapon to merge it with the two Reeds and resurrect the Supreme Intelligence within the machine. Back to life, the Supreme Intelligence immediately summoned its Kree armada to attack Earth.; ====Forever====; As it turned out, the Supreme Intelligence wished to completely eradicate all of the Inhumans to prevent the Midnight King's prophecy from occurring as it would spell doom for the Kree Empire, planning to take out the rest of Earth as well. Black Bolt refused to back down, and as the Kree fleet attacked Attilan and Manhattan, the Inhumans, along with the other heroes, held their own against the invaders. While the Kree transported the Supreme Intelligence from Forever City to their ship, the Fist of Hala, Attilan moved above them and joined the Universal Inhumans' bigger ship, prompting the Intelligence to urge its subjects to move faster, though Ronan decided to remain behind with Crystal as he was unwilling to help in the attack his wife's people. Suddenly, the Human Torch and the Universal Inhumans' envoy, the Light Brigade, emerged from the Negative Zone, having subdued Annihilus and taken command of the Annihilation Wave. He and the Future Foundation led the Annihilation Wave into a counterattack against the Kree, while the Light Brigade and other heroes fought on Earth, soon the rest of the Inhumans joined them in the battle.; Despite all of the heroes' combined forces, the Kree still had the upper hand. They managed to breach the Universal Inhumans' flying citadel, but Black Bolt and his fellow Inhumans stood their ground. Informed of their current situation, the Supreme Intelligence ordered that they focus all their efforts on wiping out the Inhumans. Suddenly, Mr. Fantastic summoned Galactus who dealt with some of the Kree armada, before the arrival of the Mad Celestials. The cosmic armored giants began to battle between them, and seeing that the situation became bigger than they could handle the Supreme Intelligence reluctantly ordered the Kree to retreat. Black Bolt saw that their attackers were fleeing and ordered the Universal Inhumans to go after them, leaving the other heroes to deal with the Mad Celestials on their own.; The Inhumans pursued the Kree to their galaxy, the Large Magellanic Cloud, to prevent the Supreme Intelligence from retaking the Kree Empire's throne, and another battle soon ensued. The conflict came to a sudden halt as the two sides were met by the appearance of an adult Franklin Richards from the future. He forced the parties involved to have peace talks, which consisted of Black Bolt's consciousness going into the Supreme Intelligence's collective. There he was confronted by the Intelligence's countless minds, and fought them until he surrendered. Most of the minds wished to take the opportunity to destroy him, but the rest recognized Black Bolt's humbleness and the Intelligence was convinced to set terms. Black Bolt would allow the Supreme Intelligence to reclaim the Kree Empire and go back home on Earth if no harm would come to his people.; In exchange the Intelligence requested that its Accuser be returned and his marriage to Crystal be annulled which the Inhuman king agreed. The Inhumans soon returned to Earth, where they welcomed back the Light Brigade after they had spent many years being tortured by Annihilus. In preparation for the incoming discussion, Black Bolt sent Medusa with Lockjaw to get Crystal back as he requested for her to come back home, and requested the Future Foundation's audience. Upon everyone gathering, the king and queen talked to everyone present about the hard choices they had to take in regards to love and duty. They revealed that in order to settle peace with the Kree the Supreme Intelligence requested for Ronan to be separated from Crystal and be returned. Ronan protested against this, but a heartbroken Crystal decided to respect her king's wishes and her now ex-husband was sent back to the Kree Empire alone.; ====Marvel NOW!====; Irritated to share her position as queen of the Inhumans with Black Bolt's four other wives, Medusa accepted the Invisible Woman's request to take her place along with the other four members to have some space for herself during this time. This soon led to Medusa having her son Ahura join the Future Foundation to gain more education, but her sister and niece who had brought him there from Attilan could see that there was something wrong with Medusa's psyche, which the Inhuman queen dismissed and told them to ignore it. The next day, both Medusa and Foundation student, Bentley-23, went missing all of a sudden. The Fantastic Four and the Future Foundation went looking all over for them, even notifying the Inhuman Royal Family of Medusa's disappearance who joined the search with the help of Lockjaw.; As it turned out, the Wizard had been mind-controlling Medusa ans had her kidnap his child clone, Bentley, to reform the Frightful Four along with Blastaar as a twisted family to oppose the Fantastic Four. The Frightful Four transported the Baxter Building to the Negative Zone where they broke inside to fight the Fantastic Four and the Future Foundation. Despite the heroes' combined power, they were slowly being overwhelmed, while Medusa still remained under Wizard's control. Thankfully, Bentley betrayed the team and helped turn the tide by first teleporting away Blastaar which led to Wizard's defeat and Medusa being freed. The Baxter Building was soon returned back to Earth, where the Inhuman Royal Family reunited with Medusa and put the Wizard on trial for the crimes he committed against them. Medusa herself is trialed in the Himalayas by the Inhumans for allowing the Wizard to exploit her mental weakness to control her. Medusa admitted that Luna was able to see that weakness and requested that she accompanied her back to the Baxter Building, and challenged anyone who disagreed with her. The Fantastic Four had attended the trial, and She-Hulk was dissatisfied with how it went, which led to a confrontation with Medusa.; Meanwhile, another Foundation student, Alex Power, conspired with Doctor Doom after having a fallout with the Four's leader, Ant-Man, and was ordered to find a way to kill an old Johnny Storm from the future as he was onto them. Alex asked Ahura to help him find someone who would be willing to kill, and the Inhuman prince brought him to his uncle Maximus who had been imprisoned by the Royal Family. With the help of the other Foundation students, Alex and Ahura freed Maximus and sneaked him inside the Baxter Building, while the Fantastic Four were away, meeting one of the teachers by the name of Charles Cotta. The two decided to work together in fighting Doom, and with the help of Old Johnny Storm, began building a portal that could return the original Four after they became lost through space and time. The replacement team was cautious of cautious of Maximus' involvement, but allowed the mad scientists to keep working, unaware that Doom and his accomplices were spying on them. Upon completing the portal, everyone gathered to see it work, but instead of bringing the original Four back, it sucked everyone present to an alternate dimension. Ant-Man had in fact sabotaged the portal himself to bring them to Underspace, as he knew Alex and Maximus were in cahoots with Doom, and proceeded to teleport everyone to the Watcher's Citadel where the Four prepared to battle against the Latverian monarch.; Because Black Bolt was in a constant telepathic contact with Ahura, he knew exactly what was happening and unconcerned, which one of Doom's accomplices, Ravonna took notice of. During the preparation for the incoming battle, Medusa brought to the present Dakor the Magician from 1942, before going to her son to officially announce he was now an adult and asked him if he wished to stay with the rest of the students or fight by her side, which he chose the latter. The Fantastic Four then launched their attack on Doom, with their robot army fighting the Doombots, while the Inhumans joined in the attack by destroying every Latverian embassy around the Earth, denying Doom any chance to escape. Ahura helped Alex free his parents after they were imprisoned by Doom, and Lockjaw brought back Franklin and Valeria Richards to Earth once the original Four learned of what was transpiring, only to be temporarily imprisoned by Ravonna. Medusa, She-Hulk and Miss Thing managed to strip Doom of his supernatural powers, allowing Ant-Man to go toe-to-toe against him. After having Dragon Man teleport the women to safety, Ant-Man battled Doom, and managed to come out on top. The Fantastic Four celebrated their victory by having a barbeque on the moon with the original Four and the Inhuman Royal Family. During this, Medusa and Crystal tried to convince Ahura and Luna to stay with the Foundation as dark days would come, but the sisters were forced to give in to their children's request to stay by their side.; ===Rise of the Inhumans===; ====Infinity====; The Avengers learned that the ancient race known as the Builders were causing mass destruction across the cosmos, and left Earth to investigate the matter. In their absence, one of Thanos' top generals, Corvus Glaive sent an Outrider to infiltrate Attilan where it broke inside Black Bolt's dormitory and read his mind as he slept. The Inhuman king immediately woke up and fought the creature, but it managed to get with the information it acquired from him. Taking advantage of the Avengers' absence, Thanos' Black Order travelled to Attilan, where they demanded a tribute of young Inhuman heads that range from the ages of 16 and 22, else they would lay destruction. After the Black Order left, Black Bolt went to investigate why Thanos would want to kill the young Inhumans, and going through the Terrigen Codex discovered that the Mad Titan actually had a secret son with a Inhuman whose identity and location was unknown to him.; Black Bolt notified the rest of the Illuminati of the existence of Thanos' Inhuman son, and sent them to search for him in various hidden Inhuman tribes around the world. Doctor Strange was successful in finding him in the city of Orollan in the Eternal Chasm of Greenland, learning that his name was Thane. However, Strange was under the influence of another general of Thanos, Ebony Maw, who made him forget his discovery and retreat, keeping Thane's identity and location to himself. Meanwhile, in preparation for Thanos' arrival Black Bolt secretly had a new Terrigen Bomb created within Attilan. Because Black Bolt refused to pay the tribute to Thanos, the Mad Titan and his army arrived to raid Attilan, but by the time they arrived the entirety of the city had evacuated, except for the king himself. As Thanos confronted him, Black Bolt unleashed a powerful scream that tore all of Attilan down, activating the Terrigen Bomb which released the Terrigen Mist on the whole world to activate every single unknown Inhuman living with everyday people.; Around the world, random people who were unaware of their Inhuman descent were all affected by the mist, manifesting powers all of a sudden. Among these individuals was Thane, who was transformed into resembling his father, while everyone else in Orollan perished. Back to the runis of Attilan, both Black Bolt and Thanos survived the city's destruction, and the two fought. Thanos bested the Inhuman king, but when the latter still refused to tell him where his son was, he knocked him out and captured him. During that, Maw came to Thane and under the pretence of helping him control his newly-developed powers, trapped him in a containment field, before contacting his master that he finally found him. With his son now under his possession, Thanos and his Black Order went to Necropolis, the Illuminati's hidden headquarters resting beneath Wakanda, where they found their antimatter bombs. The Mad Titan planned to use Black Bolt to activate the bombs in order to destroy Earth, and left Supergiant in control of the Inhuman king while he and the rest of the Black Order departed Wakanda to go to Greenland. The Illuminati arrived to Necropolis with the help of Maximus and Lockjaw, and began fighting Thanos' army.; The Illuminati reached Necropolis where they attempted to fight Supergiant, but were defeated by her using Black Bolt. She then proceeded to activate the antimatter bombs, only for Maximus to trigger them himself and have Lockjaw teleport the bombs and Supergiant to a distant uninhabited planet where she died alone from the explosion. Thanos and the rest of the Black Order were also defeated after the Avengers freed Thane and had him trap his father and his generals in amber. With the conflict over for now, Black Bolt was liberated, and soon fled the scene along with Maximus and Lockjaw to the Himalayas. There, Black Bolt hid the Terrigen Codex and made Maximus promise that their survival should be kept a secret from everyone, while the latter deduced that his brother always planned to unleash the Terrigen Mist to herald a new age of Inhumans, regardless of Thanos' invasion. The detonation of the Terrigen Bomb had also diminished Black Bolt's powers, which he was able to recover from by submerging himself in exogenetically charged waters provided by Maximus.; ====Inhumanity====; Prior to Thanos' attack, all of the Inhumans, except for Black Bolt and Maximus, had evacuated through Eldrac who teleported them to different locations where the Royal Family was separated from each other. There they could do nothing but witness Attilan's destruction above Hudson River, which unleashed a massive Terrigen Mist that swept throughout Earth. This devastated the Royal Family, and in the ensuing chaos Medusa sought out her relatives, only finding Crystal and Karnak, the latter having been taken under custody by the Avengers as his mind was left broken from the event. At the Avengers Tower, Karnak was able to deduce to Medusa and the Avengers that it had always been Black Bolt's to sacrifice Attilan to bring forth a new age of Inhumans, for he knew that in the human population lay the distant descendants of the Inhumans who had left Attilan long ago, since the discovery of Terrigenesis. He wasn't sure of the state of the king and the other members of the Royal Family, but then came to a revelation. Karnak told Medusa that she should forget everything she knew until now in order to guide this new Inhuman age, before throwing himself out of the tower to plummet to his death, as he would prove to be a flaw in this new state of the world. Medusa took charge of the Inhumans, and oversaw the clean up of Attilan's ruins and its restoration. Gorgon was also found, and wished to be reunited with his son Petras, whose location and those of the other children was unknown. Meanwhile, various forces began taking advantage of the new cocooned Inhumans, dubbed Nuhumans, those being governments wishing to turn them into weapons, the Unspoken recruiting them to his side, and A.I.M. dissecting them. Although still mourning, Medusa stood strong and worked hard to keep all of her people safe and rebuild their society.; Eldrac was found by S.H.I.E.L.D. among the ruins of Attilan and surrendered to the Inhumans. Medusa wished to use Eldrac to find her husband Black Bolt, but upon passing through his portal she found herself in a battle between the newly activated Inhuman Dante Pertuz and the evil Orollanian Lash who was forcing the new Inhumans join to his side. She came to the new Inhuman's aid, and recruited him to her civilization. As cleanup and recruitment ensued, the ruins were rebuilt into the New Attilan, an independent city-state where the Nuhumans could learn to control their new powers. Captain America, talking for S.H.I.E.L.D., went up to Queen Medusa to express his concerns about the Inhumans' growing presence in the United States which could become a major problem, but she assured them that it would all be fine. She, her fellow Inhumans and Captain America then fought A.I.M. again in Central Park over a piece of Attilan, after which Medusa made an announcement, officially revealing the Inhumans existence to the whole world and promising to all of humanity that her people would do no harm to them.; Back to New Attilan, Medusa was approached by Nuhuman crime lord, Lineage, whose power was to contain in his body the consciousnesses of everyone related to him. He presented her with the knowledge about the truth of Black Bolt's reasoning for detonating the Terrigen Bomb, that being that something was coming to threaten the Inhuman race and if they all didn't unite then they would face extinction. With this knowledge in mind, the Royal Family went to take down Lash and his Tribe for good. They arrived to Orollan where they fought the Tribe, even saving those who were being endangered by Lash's carelessness, and the battle came to an end when Medusa restricted him and convinced Lash to join them instead of going against them in order to ensure their people's survival. Continuing with their mission to bring in all of the new Inhumans, several Inhuman agents went to rescue the Nuhumans being exploited by corrupt governments and militaries. On the day of New Attilan opened up to foreigners to establish friendly relations, an assassination attempt was made on Medusa's life by a group of Nuhumans who resented the Royal Family for transforming them against their will, but instead of condemning them she recognized their situation and still offered them a place to stay in the city. The Unspoken soon arrived to New Attilan to propose to Medusa for marriage, since as the former king of the Inhumans he could lead them into their new age. Unexpectedly, Medusa refused, which left the Unspoken ask for his three followers to be allowed to stay, but before he could leave he had another demand: to be allowed to spend the night in New Attilan and in return he would tell the Royal Family of Black Bolt's current whereabouts. The Royal Family knew that he was attempting to trick them by trying to gain access to the remaining Terrigen Mist kept hidden in the city, but complied as they figured he would inadvertently lead them to it. Upon putting him in his cell, the Unspoken immediately proceeded to find the secret passage to the stored Terrigen, only to be met by the Royal Family. Unfortunately for them, the Unspoken's three followers attacked them from behind, allowing him to submerge himself into the Terrigen and regain his full powers. Back to his full self, the Unspoken gained control of New Attilan and closed it off from the outside world.; Some of the Inhumans left out were Inferno, Jason and Naja who broke inside New Attilan where they learned of the Unspoken from Vinatos. While the group planned to take him down, Medusa was chained in the throneroom where she was forced to watch the Unspoken kill Vinatos. Luckily, Inferno distracted the Unspoken to allow Flint to destroy his last remaining Terrigen, leaving him depowered which led to him being defeated by Naja. Medusa was freed and left the Unspoken to rot in his cell for not only attempting to usurp the throne but for lying to her about Black Bolt. Unbeknownst to the Royal Family, Lineage had in his possession some of the Terrigen and revealed to the Unspoken that Maximus had imprisoned Black Bolt. The New Attilan Security Force was formed to crack down the circulation of false Terrigen, and soon was tasked with finding Black Bolt. Its two members, Auran and Frank McGee were finally able to find him by tracking down Maximus to his apartment in Tribeca, but upon being caught the mad prince forced his brother to speak, destroying a large chunk of the building and killing Auran who gave life to save McGee. McGee reported back to the Royal Family, and together with Gorgon and Inferno they went through Eldrac to find Black Bolt. They were teleported to the Himalayas where they saw Maximus with Black Bolt in his grasp, and McGee immediately went to confront them. Maximus attempted to kill him using Black Bolt's voice, but McGee persevered and shot Maximus, freeing Black Bolt of his control. Now freed, Black Bolt blew Maximus' hands and let him to fall down the mountain, but refused to go to New Attilan with his rescuers and instead got back the Terrigen Codex and flew away. After Medusa had her morality inversed, she grew increasingly irritated by the regulations set upon New Attilan by the humans which restricted their culture and defenses, to the point that she decided to declare war on humanity.; Gorgon and Triton grew concerned over Medusa's new hostile and reckless behavior which could threaten New Attilan, and informed the Avengers about her intentions. Medusa crashed a U.N. meeting to threaten the other nations to stay out of the Inhumans' business, but was confronted by Spider-Man. Learning that her own family doubted her, she left New Attilan in their hands to live on her own. In her absence, New Attilan came under the attack of the Ennilux Corporation due to Reader bringing in Nuhuman Iso who was being pursued by the attackers' boss, the Capo. The attack ceased once Black Bolt returned and drove Ennilux away from New Attilan, and soon Medusa came back as well, this time restored to her former self. They welcomed Iso to their society, but with that out of the way, Medusa clashed with her husband, telling him that he was old Attilan's king, while she was now the sole queen of New Attilan, and forced Black Bolt to leave the Inhumans once more. Lineage soon began making his own move to take over New Attilan. First he managed to get hold of both the Inhuman Codex and Capo's head, and then proceeded to lure Medusa and most of her family along with those close to her into going through Eldrac to be ambushed in the Carpathians by Lash's Tribe. While Medusa and her companions fought Lash, Lineage held Gorgon hostage and consumed the Capo to gain his knowledge on how to operate the Codex to its full capacity. With the full power of the Codex, Lineage mentally connected to all Inhumans, urging them all to band together behind him to take over Earth, before taking control of the normal humans living in New Jersey and have them fight each other. Eldrac regretted helping Lineage and just as Lash's Tribe was about to take down Medusa and her companions he saved them by teleporting them back to New Attilan. They attempted to fight Lineage, but it was Karnak who managed to defeat him by bursting out of his body since following his death he had become part of the evil Nuhuman. Iso then managed to stop the rampage caused by Lineage, establishing a temporary peace for the time being.; Another attack came to New Attilan, this time in the form of the flying island of Aerie from which the Bird People descended. During the attack, Spider-Man came to the Inhumans' help, and together went through Eldrac to arrive to Aerie. There they confronted the Bird People's leader, the Red Raven, who accused the Inhumans of ruining his entire civilization. He got hold of Medusa, leaving the rest of the Nuhumans and Spider-Man to fall down the hole at the center of Aerie. He revealed to her that like all secret Inhumans around the world, the Bird People were affected by the Terrigen Mist, but because their genes had been so far removed from their Inhuman roots, the results were horrific and devastating. Because he wasn't genetically a Bird Person, Red Raven was spared, but not his family, and blaming the Inhumans of Attilan for what happened to his adoptive people, he became hellbent on bringing ruin to New Attilan as well through the use of anti-gravity technology. He left Medusa at the mercy of the disfigured Bird People, but to his surprise the Nuhumans and Spider-Man made their way back to his base, now joined by the new Captain America, Sam Wilson. They fought Red Raven, and once they subdued him managed to convince him to stop his attack. However, Aerie immediately lost power and began free falling into Manhattan. Flint, with the help of Iso, was barely able to lift the island and gently placed on water besides New Attilan. Medusa forgave Red Raven for the attack and promised him to do her best to help the Bird People with their condition.; ====Uncanny Inhumans====; Black Bolt took notice that the universe was soon about to end and before that could he wished to reunite with his son one last time. He once again went back to New Attilan, and on Medusa's suggestion went through Eldrac in hopes of finding his son. He ended up in a fortress belonging to Kang the Conqueror who revealed to the Inhuman King that he had not only found his son Ahura, but took care of him as if he were his own son. Because of this, Ahura held his father with contempt, not wanting to have anything to do with him anymore. Black Bolt understood this, but still he forcefully embraced his son, only to release a small amount of the Terrigen Mist he had with him, because it was Inhuman tradition for the father to personally expose his child to the mist. While Ahura became enveloped inside a cocoon, Black Bolt made a deal with Kang that if he kept his son safe from the incoming calamity, then he would have full custody of him, before departing.; Following the destruction and recreation of the multiverse, Black Bolt decided to walk back on his promise to Kang and sought a way to get his son back. He recruited the help of Triton and Reader to help him in his quest, but Kang found out about this and attempted to kill them. Meanwhile, several unidentified objects which came to be called the Skyspears had suddenly landed around the globe, and were shown to increase the powers of an Inhuman. The Royal Family formed the Royal Inhuman Diplomatic Mission to not only investigate them maintain peaceful relations with countries affected by the Terrigen Mist, but they were plagued by another problem as tension between their race and the mutants began rising due to the Terrigen Mist proving to be deathly toxic to the latter, and so they hired Beast to help resolve the problem. Medusa also started a relationship with the Human Torch, only to be met by a furious Black Bolt after he had just narrowly escaped Kang's attack. He informed them about Ahura's situation, leaving Medusa to gather her personal war council to discuss how to rescue him. Suddenly, various Inhumans began disappearing out of nowhere without others noticing, caused as a result of Kang going back in time to destroy their history and erase them from existence. Thankfully, Beast took notice of this, and isolated everyone near him in a time bubble that protected them from the timeline alterations, but by the time they devised a way to track Kang down to a specific point in time, New Attilan and all of its inhabitants were erased. With Reader's help, Medusa, Black Bolt, Triton, Iso, Beast and Human Torch managed to travel back in time to confront Kang, only to be met by an old man version of Ahura.; Ahura immediately attacked them with projections of his younger self which the group could barely fight. After a temporary retreat, both Black Bolt and Medusa came to terms that this version of their son was too far gone and killed him. Using old man Ahura's technology, the group traveled to the time of Randac, when Kang brought present Ahura's cocoon to the revered scientist to see what powers he would develop. While Kang was distracted by past Black Bolt's first attempt to save his son, the remaining members of the royal family and their allies entered Randac's palace where they were finally reunited with Ahura and explained to him what his life under Kang would end up like and end the entire Inhuman population. Soon Kang arrived and brought his army to lay siege on ancient Attilan and get away with Ahura. Before he could depart, Ahura awakened his powers and took possessed of Kang. He ordered Kang to leave him, go back in time to undo the damage he did to Inhuman history, and kill himself before he thought of attacking his people again. With Kang gone, Inhuman history was restored, and the family reunited returned home to the present. Back to their proper time, Black Bolt built the Quiet Room in the Grand Central Station which would serve as a neutral ground where peaceful meetings between different Inhuman and non-Inhuman factions took place under his watch. During the election of the new CEO of Ennilux, Ahura used his powers to infiltrate the presentations and convince the group to elect him as their new leader. The Diplomatic Mission also were successful in bringing most of the Nuhumans, even finding Petras and reuniting him with Gorgon, just in time for him to recover from his paralysis.; ====Civil War II====; Still continuing their work in bringing in newly-powered NuHumans, the Royal Family discovered Ulysses Cain, a Nuhuman who had gained the uncontrollable power to foresee future threatening events. They brought Ulysses to New Attilan where Karnak trained him on how to better handle his powers, and one of the threats he foresaw was the coming of an interdimensional being known as the Celestial Destructor. Believing in his prophecy's validity, the Inhumans warned the Avengers and their allies of the coming of the Celestial Destructor. Thanks to the Inhumans' warning, the heroes prepared themselves for the arrival of the Celestial Destructor, and when the being came as Ulysses predicted, they were able to fight it and banish it back to its dimension. In the party celebrating the victory over the Celestial Destructor, the Inhumans decided to introduce Ulysses to everyone and reveal his powers to them. Captain Marvel was immediately intrigued by Ulysses' capabilities and offered him to work for her team, the Ultimates, in preventing any other future threats. However, Iron Man was apprehensive about this, as he figured that Ulysses could only see possible future events, which meant that not everything he predicted was assured to happen. This caused an argument to arise, which ended when Tony stormed off from the party. Later that night, Ulysses received a new vision about Thanos planning a new attack on Earth to claim a Cosmic Cube and told what he saw to the Inhumans who relayed it to Captain Marvel. She decided to ambush Thanos before he had a chance to attack, and with the assistance of the Inhuman Royal Family she and the Ultimates attacked him. Although they barely managed to incarcerate him, the heroes suffered heavy loses, those being War Machine and She-Hulk.; At the news of his best friend's death, Iron Man broke inside the Inhuman Royal palace to abduct Ulysses. Medusa was alerted by Captain Marvel that would happen, and confronted Iron Man in Ulysses' room. She tried to force him to leave, but he fought back, alerting the rest of the royal family. They all fought Iron Man only to discover that his armor was empty, having been piloted by Tony in order to keep them distracted while he got hold of Ulysses and made his escape with him. Enraged by this act of transgression, the Inhumans made their way to the Stark Tower with the intent to attack it so they would draw Iron Man out. Before they could proceed, Captain Marvel and her team arrived to stop them from escalating the situation into a full war, and assured the royal family that she would bring Ulysses safe and sound and have Tony reprimanded. Medusa understood and agreed to temporarily retreat, much to Karnak's dismay. Back to New Attilan, Medusa explained to her subjects that the only reason she decided to back down was to avoid any unnecessary conflict which would end in destruction and cost the Inhumans the humans' trust, but she made it clear that they would still be going after Iron Man alone. The Inhumans secretly infiltrated Stark Industries and began taking away Stark's vast riches and most of his most important secretive data which they leaked to the public, diminishing his business and reputation. However, Tony wasn't too concerned about any of this as he had much bigger problems to deal with and shrugged the Inhumans' campaign against him off. Knowing that Iron Man could easily recuperate any loses the Inhumans dealt him, Triton believed that Medusa was being too merciful and needed to go further in their attacks, and behind everyone's back recruited the help of Maximus the Mad. Maximus agreed to help in delivering more crippling attacks to Stark, and started his own campaign by first destroying Stark Tower.; Witnessing the destruction of Stark Tower, Medusa immediately activated New Attilan's lockdown system out of fear that Iron Man would retaliate against her people under the belief it was the Inhumans' doing. She didn't fear what Stark could do, but she feared what the rest of the world would think if the Inhumans were framed for this act of terrorism. The Royal Family and their subjects immediately went to work in clearing their name by first making sure that neither Black Bolt or Ahura were responsible for this attack. During their investigation, however, they saw on the news that another Stark facility in Switzerland was under attack of Lash and his Tribe, who claimed to be acting on the name of Queen Medusa. Upon destroying the facility, the Inhumans immediately confronted the Tribe and demanded to know the real reason behind this. He refused to say anything, and before Medusa could make him speak she and the Royal Family were met by the arrival of Captain Marvel and the Ultimates. Medusa tried to difuse the situation, only for Lash to attack the Ultimates in her name, causing a fight to break out. Medusa again tried to talk to them, but seeing that their fight was only making the situation worse, she had Lockjaw teleport everyone except her, McGee, Ahura and Captain Marvel to the Triskelion to make it clear that she and the Inhumans were on the side of justice. She managed to convince Captain Marvel to give her more time to find the real culprit behind these devastating attacks, and upon being left alone she told Ahura and McGee that she already figured that this was all the doing of Maximus. Meanwhile, with Triton's help Maximus infiltrated New Attilan's operating system and deactivated the shield, as he planned to leave the city open for Iron Man to attack the city so the Inhumans would be seen as the victims. Iron Man immediately sent his armor legion to New Attilan, making quick work of Black Bolt by trapping him in a shield immune to his voice, and proceeded to hack into the city's system and take it over. He erected a new shield around New Attilan, trapping everyone inside, though he assured them that no harm would come to them, and ordered for Medusa to surrender herself. Unfortunately for him, Karnak managed to evade him and regrouped with the trapped Nuhumans, giving Iso specifically the task to lead everyone into a counterattack against Iron Man's occupation. With everyone behind her, Iso fought Iron Man's remote-controlled armors, and with Triton's help, they made their way to the throne room where the main armor in control of the city was located. They were able bring down the shield, allowing Medusa to re-enter the city and talk to Iron Man. She took accountability for the attacks she was responsible for, but told him that Maximus was the one who committed the more destructive attacks that took people's lives. Iron Man was unconvinced by this unproven claim, until Triton admitted to having personally asked Maximus to attack his innocent employees, and willingly surrendered himself in his stead. Iron Man accepted this deal, and took Triton in, but as this was happening Maximus made his escape, bringing with him the Unspoken and Lineage who he had freed for his future schemes.; Ulysses had also been secured by the Ultimates and returned to the Inhumans, but during the extraction he received a new vision about the Hulk killing them all, this time projecting it into everyone's minds. The Royal Family accompanied the heroes in confronting Bruce Banner in his hideout where it was discovered he had been experimenting on himself. When Captain Marvel told him they would be taking him under custody, Banner became angry that his rights were being violated without any real proof outside of a young man's claims, but before the situation could continue he was suddenly shot and killed by an arrow through the head by Hawkeye. Despite this tragic turn of events, Captain Marvel was convinced that they had avoided an imminent catastrophe and was adamant to keep using Ulysses' visions to prevent many more. The Royal Family acted as Ulysses' supervisors and handlers, making sure that things went smoothly during Ulysses' briefings. The reveal of Ulysses' existence also further worsened the relationship between the Inhumans and the mutants, the latter believing that the former would use him against them to protect the Terrigen Mist from them, despite the mutant lives it was taking. Refusing to let this apparent injustice continue, Stark analyzed the copy of Ulysses' brain he made while he was under his care and eventually discovered the truth about how Ulysses' powers actually worked; his brain gathered information from the universe and made an algorithmic prediction of a possible future. He immediately gathered his fellow Avengers, along with Queen Medusa and Black Bolt, to reveal his finding to everyone, as this meant that Ulysses' visions were based on guesses rather than hard facts. This did little to dissuade Captain Marvel as although the visions were merely possibilities, those were risks she was willing to take. Left with no other choice, Iron Man and his supporters broke out the latest person accused by Ulysses' vision, Alison Green, causing them to go toe-to-toe with Captain Marvel and her own supporters. In the ensuing fight, Captain Marvel requested the Royal Family to come to her aid which they accepted, leaving Ulysses safe in New Attilan. However, as they fought Iron Man and his side, Ulysses received yet another vision and shared it with everyone on the Triskelion, showing them a future in which Spider-Man killed Steve Rogers.; The battle immediately ended and everyone was speechless. The silence was broken by Captain Marvel immediately trying to apprehend Spider-Man, but was prevent by Iron Man's side, and even some of her former supporters, who allowed the young hero to go back home. As most became even more befuddled by all of this, the Inhumans proceeded to leave to New Attilan where they found Ulysses in a trance. Concerned about his powers growing faster than they had originally anticipated and the visions becoming more and more erratic, they tried break him out of it in order to ask for his permission to run some more tests, but as they waited for his response he suddenly bursted into panic and told them that they needed to stop both Iron Man and Captain Marvel as their conflict would decimate the world in the future. The Royal Family immediately contacted Maria Hill to convince Stark and Danvers to stop fighty, only to learn that they were already having a brutal fight outside of Capitol Building. They tried to have Ulysses elaborate on his latest vision, but he was back to his trance, and fearing the worst they teleported to the scene. Medusa tried to call out to Iron Man and Captain Marvel to no avail, while Karnak freed Spider-Man from the force field Stark erected around him. The Ultimates and Alpha Flight also tried to intervene, but it was too late as in that moment Captain Marvel utterly destroyed Iron Man's armor, leaving his falling unconscious body to be caught by Spider-Man. Shortly after that, Ulysses ensnared everyone present with powers and showed them different visions of the possible futures to come, before being by the abstract entity Eternity. Having become one with the universe, Ulysses was offered by Eternity to join him, and he gladly accepted, leaving the Earthly plane forever. In the aftermath, the Inhumans were left distraught over their failure as Stark had gone into a coma and Ulysses was no longer with them.; ===Downfall and Resurgence===; ====Inhumans vs. X-Men====; Storm and her X-Men knew that the Inhumans didn't intend for the Terrigen Mist to kill mutants and wished to help the species survive, but Emma Frost, Magneto and Cyclops' own X-Men believed that the Inhumans were prioritizing their own species over theirs and planned to go to war if things didn't improve. In their fight to protect mutants from the Terrigen disease, now called M-Pox, Emma and her X-Men managed to neutralize one of the Terrigen clouds, which angered the Royal Family and when the one who they thought was Cyclops (in actuality a mental projection from Emma since the real Cyclops had already succumbed to the M-Pox) prepared to attack them they proceeded to "kill" him, further driving the wedge between the two species. Storm was barely successful in establishing a truce between the mutants and Inhumans, but unfortunately that would prove to be only temporary in the long run as the mutants would not stand down for long.; Fearing that the mutants would inevitably break their truce and attack, Queen Medusa and the rest of the Inhuman Family prepared themselves for that time to come. Meanwhile, Beast worked hard in finding a potential cure to the Terrigen Mist, but during his observation he discovered that the mist was becoming more saturated, which meant that it was shrinking and would soon dissipate into the atmosphere, making the entire world unhabitable for mutantkind. In light of this discovery, Beast held a meeting with other prominent mutants to discuss this matter and suggested that mutantkind leave Earth, only for the majority of the gathered to reject that proposal and instead opting to start a war to destroy the Terrigen Mist. They had Beast restrained in order to prevent him from returning to New Attilan and warn the Inhumans, and soon put their plan into motion. Under Emma Frost's guidance, the X-Men first worked to take out the heavy hitters at the Inhumans' disposal. Emma and Dazzler ambushed Black Bolt in the Quiet Room, Magneto ambushed Gorgon and Crystal after tricking them into rescuing him, Fantomex neutralized Lockjaw in his sleep, and the time-displaced Jean Grey trapped Karnak in his mind. With them out of their way, most of the X-Men launched a surprise attack on New Attilan. As the attack commenced, Storm demanded that no innocent Attilans were to be harmed, as their main target were the remaining members of the Royal Family as by taking them out they would be allowed to finally destroy the Terrigen Mist undisturbed. After Medusa sent Iso and Inferno to investigate the disappearance of Black Bolt and Crystal, she was confronted by the time-displaced Beast at which point she officially called off the truce between their two species. Just as she was gaining the upper hand, Nightcrawler intervened and teleported her to Limbo. There she was joined by Human Torch and the other Inhumans who had been fighting the X-Men, but were left trapped in this hellish dimension by Magik. Meanwhile, Iso and Inferno managed to escape Wolverine and the time-displaced Angel by going through Eldrac, only to end up in the same location as Old Man Logan.; ====Death of Inhumans====; When the Kree Imperium began ordering all surviving Inhumans to join it or perish, the Inhuman Royal Family traveled to a secret meeting place on a faraway planet where they supposed to meet with the rest of the Universal Inhumans to discuss the situation. However, the leaders of the Universal Inhumans and their attendants were found dead, and a bomb was left behind as a trap. Lockjaw was able to teleport the Royal Family to safety but wasn't able to save Triton who died in the bomb blast. Medusa was also serious wounded by a piece of shrapnel and needed to be medically treated. The Royal Family realized that while they were away, the Kree were attacking the Inhuman city of New Arctilan located on the Earth's Moon. The Royal Family hurried back to New Arctilan using Black Bolt's voice to increase their ship's speed. Lockjaw went on ahead to retrieve Maximus. Lockjaw arrived in time to rescue Maximus from the leader of the Kree's assualt, Vox. Before Lockjaw and Maximus could escape, Vox killed them both. When the Royal Family arrived, New Arctilan was in ruins, causing Black Bolt to shed a tear.

+Created by: Jim Krueger; Alex Ross; John Paul Leon
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-9997
+Base of operations: Formerly Attilan
+History:
+The past history of the Inhuman Royal Family of Earth-9997 continued much as it did on Earth-616, however it appeared at some point in history the Inhumans returned Attilan to the Himalayan mountains. The reason behind this move was unknown, however it's possible that the Inhuman nation began to grow tired with living on the Moon. Eventually, the Inhuman population grew tired of living in seclusion and decided to leave the Great Refuge to forge new destinies among humanity. This happened at a time when Maximus was once more vying for power. Maximus had built a bomb that - once detonated - would release the Terrigen Mists into the Earth's atmosphere. The Inhuman Royal Family would stop Maximus from doing so, Medusa killing him. With no kingdom to rule over, the Inhuman Royal Family decided to take to the stars and find their fate elsewhere in the universe. However, Black Bolt felt that his people would be persecuted and demonized by humanity, much like they treat mutants on the outside world, and as such Bolt decided to unleash the Terrigen Mist bomb filling Earth's atmosphere with the gas. This was unknown to all, including the Watcher, whom Black Bolt had blinded to prevent him from seeing. It has been suggested that Black Bolt had some intimate knowledge about the Celestials' plans for the Earth, and releasing the Terrigen Mists on the Earth was a way to set plans in motion to stop the Celestial birth in Earth's core.; Black Bolt's action effectively caused almost all the humans on Earth to become Inhumans, mutations happened on a global scale causing a major global crisis. Economies fell, food became scarce, and the world's governments crumbled, most world leaders being replaced by long time super-humans who had experience with having super-human abilities.; In space, the Inhuman Royal Family mutated further as well, it is unknown if this was a natural evolution of their powers, if it was triggered by their new environment in space, or further exposure to the Terrigen Mists. Whatever the reason, each member of the Inhuman Royal Family (with the exception of Luna who remained human) saw their Inhuman abilities increase. Gorgon and Triton would become more animal like in appearance, Karnak's head would increase in size and his mastery at finding flaws would envelop every aspect of his being, Medusa would grow more hair, and Black Bolt became something even more powerful, and less human all together. It appears that the Inhuman Royal Family are the only Inhumans that saw an increase in their mutation during this point in history, as all the long time Inhumans on Earth appear to have remained the same.; The Inhuman Royal Family returned to Earth after they saw the fate of the Eternals. Approaching the planet when the Eternals took as a home when they had left Earth, they found that the planet was destroyed from within and all the Eternals were encased in Vibranium. It was later revealed that the Eternals had the bad luck of settling on a world that was impregnated by the Celestials that had come to term. Fearing that the Earth could suffer the same fate (half-correctly believing that Vibranium was the cause) they returned to Earth looking to warn Reed Richards, and also to gather the members of their race, specifically their son whom they had left behind. Arriving on Earth, they found that everyone on Earth had mutated and everyone (except for Black Bolt) wondered what caused this. Also on Earth, they found Reed Richards and learned that Richards had taken up the identity of Dr. Doom following the death of Doom and his wife, and that he blamed himself for the mutation of all humanity. Richards (incorrectly) theorized that it was his Vibranium energy beacons -- devices he installed all over the world to try and solve the energy crisis -- that caused the mutation when a malfunction caused one of the beacons to explode, and transmit the fall out all over the globe. Agreeing to find the lost Inhuman nation, Reed reconfigured Charles Xavier's Cerebro machine to track down the Inhumans. Reed quickly found out that every mutate on the planet was registered as an Inhuman, and taking this information back to the Royal Family they learned the truth and realized that Black Bolt had unleashed the weapon which his brother Maximus had created.; Ultimately, X-51 (who had been selected by the Watcher to record Earth's history since being struck blind) revealed to Reed Richards the truth of the Celestials' plans for humanity, and that the Final Host was coming to Earth to pass final judgment on the planet. Black Bolt was the first to tackle the Celestials alone, however this proved to be a distraction. In his dying breath, Black Bolt called for Galactus, as Galactus was revealed to be the counterforce in the universe insuring that the Celestials would not over breed and take over the universe. Galactus (in reality, Franklin Richards, mutated into a new Galactus following the death of the original) fought off the Celestials who came to Earth.; Following the defeat of the Celestials, and the destruction of the embryo growing in the Earth's core, the Inhuman Royal Family was taken to Medusa and Black Bolt's son Ahura, who had been left in the care of King Britain and trained to be the new Black Knight. Given a new costume made out of Vibranium modeled after his father's own costume, the new Black Bolt refused to lead an entire planet of Inhumans, choosing servitude over royalty. Black Bolt the 2nd ended up becoming one of Earth's champions, leading the Iron Avengers on various missions. In addition, Bolt's planned wedding to Luna (who had now mutated into a new form thanks to her exposure to the Terrigen Mists) did not come to pass, as Bolt had no interest in marrying Luna.; Medusa and King Britain eventually agreed to marry to unite the Inhuman and human nations into one unified monarchy. This plot was almost foiled when Mephisto used his powers to free Meggan, Britain's first wife who had been trapped in stone for years following a battle with the Grey Gargoyle. Meggan eventually sacrificed her life trying to stop Mephisto from rallying an army of Deviants to take over the Earth.

They were summoned by Nick Fury to the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, where Fury explained how dire the zombie situation was and helped with the evacuation efforts. Despite this, they all eventually succumbed to the Hunger Gospel.. About a year after the Zombie Galacti left Earth, the Royal Family allied themselves with the Kingpin in exchange for Human clones to feed on. It was then that an alternate version of Machine Man arrived to Earth-2149 as part of Kingpin and Morbius's plan to spread the zombie virus to an alternate earth. During his visit, Stack destroyed the cloning vats after pitying the suffering of the clones and killed Medusa, Karnak, and Quicksilver before using Lockjaw to return to his own dimension. What became of the surviving members following Machine Man's massacre is unknown.

+Transportation: Military transport as needed
+Notes: Their rallying cry during World War II was “WAH-HOO!”
+History:
+Sam Sawyer, a captain in the U.S. Army, assembled a team of elite Rangers into his "Able" Company and placed Nick Fury in charge of the First Attack Squad — soon to be known as the "Howling Commandos."; ===World War II===; The Howling Commandos, along with rival units like the Maulers led by Bull McGiveney and later Jim Morita's Nisei Squad, operated from a base in England conducting special missions across the European and Pacific theaters, as well as in Africa, the Middle East, and Russia.; One of their first missions in 1942 involved rescuing Dr. MacMillan, a British rocket scientist, from occupied Norway. The successful operation earned the attention of Winston Churchill, who integrated them into the British forces as commandos.; In another key mission, they rescued a captured French resistance fighter who knew details of the Allied invasion of Normandy. Later, they infiltrated Germany to sabotage a Nazi atomic laboratory in Heinemund. After escaping a concentration camp and attacking the facility, the resulting meltdown destroyed the lab and may have ended Germany's atomic ambitions.; The Howlers faced off against foes like Erwin Rommel, Baron Strucker, Baron Zemo, and the Red Skull. They were among the first soldiers to team up with Captain America, even joining him on missions including a Nazi incursion into Wakanda.; Despite their elite status, the team frequently clashed with authority due to Fury’s unconventional methods and their rivalry with the Maulers.; After the war, members reunited for missions during the Korean and Vietnam Wars, as well as for a modern-day reunion. Some later joined S.H.I.E.L.D. in various roles.; ===The Modern Era===; The Howling Commandos evolved into a Delta Force black ops team known for completing missions, no matter what the cost. During a failed mission in Cebu City, they lost a member codenamed Buzzkill.; They were later deployed to capture the Punisher in Los Angeles, using his ally Sgt. Thomas Tuggs as bait. A tracking bullet seriously wounded the Punisher.; The team later used the Punisher’s surviving family members as leverage, eventually capturing him. However, he persuaded their leader, Sidewinder, to release him and help uncover who was supplying weapons to the Dos Soles Cartel.; ==The Howling Commandos==; Nick Fury; Dum Dum Dugan; Jim Morita; Gabe Jones, killed in Secret Warriors Vol 1 19; Rebel Ralston, killed in Secret Avengers Vol 2 3; Isadore "Izzy" Cohen; Dino Manelli, mentioned as being dead in Secret Warriors Vol 1 19; Percival "Pinky" Pinkerton, reported to have died in Secret Warriors Vol 1 19; Eric Koenig, killed in Secret Warriors Vol 1 19; Jonathan "Junior" Juniper, killed in Sgt.

+History:
+The history of the Howling Commandos of largely mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts.; The Howling Commandos were formed during World War II and led by Nick Fury in the battle against the Nazis. When Nick Fury was made head of America's new spy agency S.H.I.E.L.D., most of the Howling Commandos joined him.; Decades later, after the mutation of humanity, former super-villain Norman Osborn made a bid for power over the collapsing United States. Using the Bloodstone Files, Norman created the parasitic Hydra, a biological entity which subsumed and converted its victims. Posing the Hydra as alien invaders, Osborn managed to rally most of the superhuman community behind him. When S.H.I.E.L.D. discovered that Norman was in fact behind the Hydra, he had them attack the agency before they could act on their discovery.; Fury and the other surviving Howling Commandos perished in the attack. After their deaths, they found themselves reunited in the Realm of the Dead, fighting a never-ending war against their deceased enemies, while believing themselves to still be alive. When Kree hero Mar-Vell began his quest to destroy Death and free the souls of the deceased, the Howling Commandos joined him. When all appeared lost during the final battle against Death, the recently deceased Captain America rallied the dead, including the Howling Commandos, and won the battle.; The Howling Commandos were among the first to take refuge in the new Paradise, a new realm created for the dead by Mar-Vell. When Paradise came under attack by the Kree, the Commandos defended it.

+History:
+On Earth-7918, a world where the human race would reach the starts in the early 1900's, the Howling Commandos would have a vastly different history than their Earth-616 counterparts. They would be gathered by Captain Samuel Sawyer to be a commando squad for Earth's military in the on going galactic war against the evil Betans. Their roster would include, former circus strong man Dum Dum Dugan, musician Gabe Jones, the youthful Junior Juniper, Dino Manelli the ladies man, the bumbling Izzy Cohen, and cowboy Rebel Ralston. Sawyer would then travel to Space Station Pearl in order to recruit Nick Fury and Red Hargrove.; This would be on the date that the Betans would attack the station causing massive damage, Sawyer would die saving Fury and Hargrove telling them why he came seeking them out. With the attack, the Earth would enter the war with their Alpha sector allies and Fury and Hargrove would join the Howling Commandos. Fury would act as their field leader and train them how to use their specially made weapons. Although their odd ball behavior caused Fury much aggravation they became a tight knit team.; They would be under the command of a computer given the rank of Captain, much to their chagrin. When they proved to be resistant to order, the captain would assign a robot to monitor the group, irking Fury even more. They would be stationed at Space Station Midway, which was believed to be the next target of the Betan army. This would prove correct, and as the invasion would happen, Fury and his men were ordered to defend the base with the exception of Hargrove who was sent to lead the battalion to lead the counter attack in space.; The Howlers would learn that Admiral Strucker, a German loyalist, was a traitor giving information to the Betans in the hopes that they would give Germany full control of the Earth after they had taken over. The Howlers would easily round up Strucker's minions, and Strucker himself would be sucked out of an airlock in a one-on-one battle with Nick Fury. The Howlers would then use a shuttle to rescue Red, who's ship was destroyed. However in the process of turning the tide of battle, the robot charged to watch them would be destroyed.; Returning to base, the battle won, their captain would commend them for a job well done but chastise them for not following orders. Fury would find the computer similar to old Captain Sawyer and would call it his old nickname.; When last seen, the Howling Commandos were still active, however their subsequent activities remain unrevealed.

As such, Captain America and Bucky would frequently work with the Howling Commandos until the defeat of the Nazis. Captain America even saved team leader Nick Fury from an enemy attack. By the war's end, the Howlers, Cap, and Bucky would part as friends.; Known Howling Commandos in this reality would include:; Nick Fury: Who would go on to fight in the Korean War. He would be killed in action by an enemy grenade that he would be unable to see because the attack came from his blind side.; Dum Dum Dugan: Would be selected to be an agent of SHIELD and work along side it's future directors Buck Barnes, and later Steve Rogers.; Rebel Ralston: Would be an active member of the Howlers, however his activities after the war remain unrevealed.; Junior Juniper: Is mentioned to have been a member of the Howling Commandos who was killed in action.

+History:
+The Howling Commandos were Dracula's elite team of monster soldiers. When Commando the Invisible Man was discovered to be a traitor, the other Commandos were ordered by Dracula to execute him. They were later ordered to escort Dracula's future bride Shiklah to the River Styx so she could deliver the ashes of her late brothers.; Secretly; however, Shiklah planned to destroy Dracula because he was the one who killed her brothers, and she wanted revenge. She obtained the Scepter of the Manticore to carry out that revenge but needed a headpiece for the Sceptre to work. She would go after the headpiece during her trip to the River Styx. Commando Werewolf by Night was given a special mission by Dracula: get rid of Shiklah.; However, the Commandos admitted to Shiklah what Dracula ordered them to do because they wanted him gone as well. They also revealed that they never killed the Invisible Man. Instead, they faked his death so he could spy on Dracula for the other Commandos. Then the Commandos and Shiklah joined forces to crush Dracula.; The ghost of Deadpool from Earth-616 joined Shiklah's journey, who had been watching events in Monster Metropolis unfold. Only Commando Frankenstein's Monster could sense Deadpool's presence.; Following a map that led the way to the headpiece, Shiklah and the Commandos walked through a portal that transported them to the domain of Weirdworld where the Temple of the Manticore was located and where the headpiece was hidden away. They traveled for hours in search of the temple.; When they found it, they then acquired the headpiece of the scepter, the Totem of the Manticore. Afterwards, the Living Mummy teleported them back to Monster Metropolis, where Dracula, who was driven mad by the Invisible Man, was attacking anyone he considered a betrayer.; The Commandos helped Shiklah confront Dracula and his army of vampires, and at the same time fought for the control of the Scepter of the Manticore. After most of the Commandos were killed, Dracula's forces were able to subdue Shiklah and obtain the Scepter of the Manticore. Deadpool used the abilities of his ghostly form to possess the body of one of Dracula's servants and throw the Sceptre to Shiklah. Shiklah then used the sceptre to kill Dracula.; After Dracula's defeat, Shiklah rallied the inhabitants of Monster Metropolis and convinced them to invade the world above and conquer it. Shiklah also finally noticed Deadpool's ghost, who warned her not to confront the upper world, but Shiklah ignored his warning. As Shiklah prepared to attack the upper world, the Thors arrived after noticing the fight between Dracula and Shiklah showdown. The Corps quickly killed Skiklah and the army of monsters and destroyed Monster Metropolis.

+Reality: Earth-199999

+History:
+The House of Agon is the royal family of Attilan, a city on the Moon populated by Inhumans. King Black Bolt assumed the throne when his parents Agon and Rynda were killed by Black Bolt's powerful, Inhuman voice. He took Medusa, the daughter of rebels executed by his parents, as his queen, and Karnak and his cousin Gorgon served as his chief adviser and head of the Inhuman Royal Guard.; When Gorgon left Attilan to find Triton after he went missing in Hawaii, Black Bolt's younger brother Maximus launched a coup with the rest of the royal guard behind him. Lockjaw took Karnak, Medusa, and Black Bolt to Hawaii to escape from the coup; however, each of them was left in a different part of the island of Oahu. When Lockjaw returned to rescue Princess Crystal, members of the royal guard loyal to Maximus put Lockjaw into a deep sleep and imprisoned Crystal in her own apartment. Soon afterwards, Maximus forced the Genetic Council to support his claim to the throne, and announced his position as Attilan's new king to the city's people.

Maximus tried to oppose Thanos, but he was killed. Triton survived the Builders' assault and Thanos' initial takeover, but what became of him after that is unrevealed. There was a truce between the Inhumans and Thanos and his Black Order, but the Inhuman Royal Family swore to kill Thanos. Gorgon and Crystal tracked down the mutant Dazzler and smuggled her into New Attilan, hoping to hide her. They met up with Medusa and Karnak through Lockjaw, but they were discovered by the Black Order, and a fight ensued. Thanos and Black Bolt eventually joined in. In the end, Thanos and his Black Order were all killed, but Gorgon, Karnak, and Lockjaw were dead as well. Before being killed by Black Bolt, Corvus Glaive revealed that Black Bolt had betrayed Earth by wiping out Earth's remaining heroes to prevent opposition to Thanos' takeover in exchange for Thanos' protection.

His eldest son Faulnak remained at his father's side, causing tension between the brothers.

They and the other prisoners of war were held captive by Hydra but were liberated by SSR's Captain Carter with the help of Steve Rogers wearing the Hydra Stomper Armor. Rogers' friend Bucky Barnes and the others formed a unit that assisted in SSR operations throughout the war.; Near the end of the war, Captain Carter, Hydra Stomper and the Howling Commandos went on a mission to capture Hydra leader Johann Schmidt. However, they were lured into a trap and Rogers along with Hydra Stomper Armor were presumed lost. Grieving, Carter interrogated Doctor Zola about Schmidt's base at Castle de Krake and led the Howling Commandos on a final decisive strike against Hydra. Rogers was found alive and captured, but Schmidt had obtained the Tesseract and used it to summon an interdimensional monster which began destroyed the castle. Rogers used the re-powered Hydra Stomper Armor to get the Howling Commandos out of the collapsing structure while Captain Carter sacrificed herself to push the monster back inside the portal.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Area 13, the Pine Barrens, New Jersey
+Transportation: formerly Grogg
+History:
+===Origins===; Several years ago, Dum Dum Dugan successfully petitioned S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury to create a specialized unit dedicated to the use of paranormal personnel. Dubbed the Howling Commandos, in homage to the famed World War II squad, the team set up shop at Area 13 and began acquiring operatives whose strengths and powers were supernatural, paranormal or extra-terrestrial in nature.; Captured beings were given the option either to work as an operative with the Commandos, which came with certain "walking around" privileges, or to be kept in continuous isolated containment at Area 13. While the Commandos' roster often fluctuated to meet the needs of the mission, a core group of operatives soon emerged: Nina Price, the Vampire by Night, the Gorilla-Man, the Living Mummy, Frank, the Zombie, and field commander Vic Marcus, codenamed Warwolf. Additionally, the team outfitted the monstrous Grogg with advanced technology that allowed the dragon to serve as a living transportation vehicle piloted by S.H.I.E.L.D. operative "Buzz" McMahon. This team, under the leadership of Dugan and his second-in-command, Bradley Beemer, completed many missions for S.H.I.E.L.D., utilizing the "horror, shock and awe" of their unique operatives.; ===New Leadership and Fighting Merlin===; Some time after their formation, the group travelled to Afghanistan and defeated an unnamed group of terrorists and members of the technological death-cult the Lords of the Living Lightning. After the mission, Dum Dum Dugan was replaced as commanding officer by Clay Quartermain, who made a less than stellar impression with the operatives.; The Commandos' first mission under Quatermain's command was a standard capture operation of the alien creature Groot; the team also acquired another operative, the Glob, on the same day. Around the same time, the ancient wizard Merlyn broke free from S.H.I.E.L.D. containment and set off an enchantment that sent England into the Dark Ages while collaborating with Daimon Hellstrom (who, unknown to the operatives, was deep undercover) and the remaining leadership of the Lords of the Living Lightning. Operatives Nina Price, the Vampire by Night, and Lilith Drake were sent in undercover to spy on Merlyn's activities.; Merlyn soon attacked Area 13, unleashing an army of mythical creatures onto the base. With the active operatives overpowered and the base overrun, Beemer activated the "stampede protocol", unleashing all of the contained assets of the base, effectively turning the tide of the fight.; While the Commandos made preparations to infiltrate Merlyn's camp, Lilith attempted to double-cross him, but failed and was burned alive. Quartermain then called in a favor to the Mole Man to use his city-moving technology. As the Mole Man raised the city above the surrounding landscape and the Commandos launched their attack, Warwolf and the Gorilla-Man cornered Merlyn, only for the wizard to teleport away. After the battle, it was revealed to the Commandos that Lilith had survived, and that her role in the mission was to assassinate Merlyn should capture not be an option.; The subsequent activities of the team were not recorded.; ===S.T.A.K.E.===; Some years later, the Howling Commandos fell under the jurisdiction of S.T.A.K.E., S.H.I.E.L.D.'s newest subsidiary to contain supernatural threats. A new lineup of Howling Commandos was formed, consisting of Hit-Monkey, the Manphibian, the Man-Thing, the Teen Abomination, Orrgo, an undead Jasper Sitwell, and a returning Nina Price. Dum Dum Dugan returned to serve as the new group's field commander, while S.T.A.K.E. agent Warwolf (Martin Reyna) served as the team's handler and commanding officer.; The new team's first mission saw them securing the Earth Idol of Golthana from a tanker ship after it mutated the crew into mindless humanoid plant creatures. While successfully defeating the crew, they failed in their main objective when the Man-Thing's destruction of the creatures caused the idol to incinerate.; At the time when Hydra took over S.H.I.E.L.D. and most of the United States, the Howling Commandos, alongside S.T.A.K.E., fell under Hydra's control.

+History:
+Following the takeover of America by Apocalypse, the majority of the human population was displaced to Europe. Some of humanity's most prominent people were appointed to the newly formed Human High Council, the ruling body of the surviving human population.; Their members included mutant expert Moira Trask, her husband the Sentinel inventor Bolivar Trask, lobotomized mutant Emma Frost, rich industrialist Brian Braddock (secretly a double agent for Apocalypse), and Japanese national Mariko Yashida.; They employed many operatives, who operated in different capacities. Military commander Thaddeus Ross held command over soldiers such as Carol Danvers, Clint Barton, Sue Storm, and Ben Grimm. Donald Blake and his aid Gwen Stacy were part of the relief effort in famine-ravaged Africa. Victor von Doom was the head of Eurasian security, while Tony Stark and Bruce Banner provided their technological expertise. The latter, unknown to all, was also a double agent for Apocalypse. They also hired mutant mercenaries Weapon X (Logan) and Jean Grey.; The two mutants collected information from Sinister regarding Apocalypse's sea wall defense perimeter. They turned this information over to the Human High Council. With this information, the Council mobilized a Sentinel evacuation of the remaining human population in North America.; Also an attack on the council by agents of Apocalypse led the Council to go ahead with a plan to launch a nuclear assault on Apocalypse's kingdom. When the Reavers attempted to thwart this, Braddock's double-cross was revealed and he was slain. Weapon X succeeded in recruiting Gateway to teleport the nuclear weapons over America.; The High Council next had to deal with the "Lost Horseman", Mikhail who offered salvation through cybernetic augmentation. However this was a double cross. However, Victor von Doom, Donald Blake, Tony Stark, Gwen Stacy, Susan Storm, and Ben Grimm exposed this plot. Banner was revealed as a double agent and defected back to the side of humanity after he learned Apocalypse had launched his sea wall defenses. During the battle against Mikhail, Donald Blake and Victor von Doom prevented an assassination attempt on the council, and Blake sacrificed his life killing Mikhail.; Although the sea wall defenses were stopped by Jean Grey, the fate of most surviving Council members is unknown. Mariko Yoshida returned to Japan.

Banner was named the leader of this iteration of the Hulkbusters.; Like Banner, the members of this Hulkbuster team were all people who had wanted to make up for past mistakes and saw bringing in the Hulk as a way to do so. However, the group was mired with problems and would soon fall apart: Carolyn Parmentor perished during their first mission, Armand Martel and Hideko Takata later quit, and Craig Saunders and Sam LaRoquette joined The Leader, becoming Redeemer and Rock respectively.

+First appearance: X-Force Vol 3 3
+Created by: Craig Kyle; Christopher Yost; Clayton Crain
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Deceased antimutant activists, resurrected with the T.O. Virus to destroy mutantkind
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Washington, D.C.
+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+Notes: A Human High Council exists in the Age of Apocalypse. Instead of being an extreme mutant hate group, this Human High Council is the joint leadership of the surviving humans of Earth.
+Trivia: When the Human Council was first revealed in X-Force Vol 3 3, each members "mutants killed" count was revealed:; Bolivar Trask = 16,521,618; Reverend William Stryker = 414 (including Wallflower and Icarus); Donald Pierce = 348 + Wolf Cub = 349; The Leper Queen = 221 + Beautiful Dreamer & Fever Pitch = 223; Cameron Hodge = 178; Graydon Creed = 147; Stephen Lang = 29 + Vanisher = 30; Bastion = unknown (at least one, Nightcrawler); Matthew Risman = unknown
+History:
+===Formation===; Following the birth of the first mutant born since M-Day, Matthew Risman and the Purifiers, with the aid of Eli Bard, managed to find Bastion in a S.H.I.E.L.D. facility. After "resurrecting" Bastion, they then harvested the remains of Magus, modified it into a techno-organic virus (or T.O. virus) and injected his remains into several living and dead known mutant killers (Donald Pierce, the Leper Queen, Reverend William Stryker, Stephen Lang, Cameron Hodge, Graydon Creed, and Bolivar Trask), turning them all into Technarch/human hybrids and "resurrecting" the dead members, much to Risman's objections. These mutant killers now constitute an inner circle of leadership for the Purifiers: The Human Council.; ===Missions===; Individual members of The Human Council were charged with different duties to give the appearance of several different organizations being run independently while all secretly being directed by Bastion. These missions occasionally overlap and are assigned as follows:; Matthew Risman - Bishop of the Purifiers - With Reverend Craig, he brainwashed Craig's daughter, Wolfsbane, and trained her to attack Angel and obtain his wings, which, even though they appeared to be fully organic, were still composed of Apocalypse's techno-organic strain. Using the sample, the Purifiers employed The Facility's Adam Harkins to duplicate the strain and use it to create an elite team of Purifiers called "the Choir". After learning that Bastion was planning to remove Risman from the group's leadership, Risman led the Choir against Bastion's Purifiers in an attempt to destroy Bastion and the reanimated remains of Stryker, considering them unholy. However, Archangel attacked the Purifiers in an attempt to reclaim the wings that were stolen from him, killing every member of the Choir. Soon after that, Matthew Risman was shot in the head by X-23 before Risman was able to kill Bastion.; Reverend William Stryker - Archbishop of the Purifiers - After Risman's death, Stryker resumed leadership of the Purifiers and continued to prepare his religious acolytes for the return of the Mutant Messiah and impending war. Stryker and a team of Purifier soldiers attempted to ambush Cable and Hope in the hotel they were staying, but he was killed in battle with the X-Men's Alpha Team.; Cameron Hodge - Founder of The Right - Hodge has begun recruiting for The Right group and rebuilding his Smiley-Faces army to prepare for the return of the Mutant Messiah and impending war. Hodge's Smiley-Faces were poised outside of the ruins of the Xavier Institute as patrol. When Cable and Hope's location was discovered, Hodge was preparing his Smiley-Face armored troops to assist the Purifiers. However, the New Mutants ambushed him before he could deploy his troops. Hodge reverted into his more robotic form and ripped off Karma's left leg before being absorbed by a reluctant Warlock at the behest of Cypher.; Donald Pierce - Leader of the Reavers - Posing as Cyclops, Pierce began training a team of Young X-Men for the purpose of killing the New Mutants (or perish in the attempt). Pierce claimed the New Mutants were reorganizing the Brotherhood of Mutants under the direction of the Hellfire Club. Pierce was exposed as an impostor and imprisoned by in Cell Block X in Graymalkin Industries and later move to the X-Brig on Utopia. There he acted as a sleeper agent for Bastion inside the X-Men's home base. Pierce was responsible for disabling Cerebra to cripple the X-Men's communications. Finally, to ground the X-Men on Utopia, Pierce sacrificed himself to destroyed the Blackbirds with a suicide bomb.; Graydon Creed - Founder of the Friends of Humanity - Claiming witness protection to explain away his "death" and using his political clout, Creed again became a public face of anti-mutant policy and began organizing rallies across the United States for the Friends of Humanity. Creed served along with Lang as one of Bastion's close lieutenants when the other members of the Human Council had been killed. Creed and Lang were both converted into robot forms by Bastion to battle the X-Men on the Golden Gate Bridge; The Leper Queen - Leader of the Sapien League - Reorganizing her racist/speciesist Sapien League, the Leper Queen was charged with capturing several mutants and inject them with a modified strain of the Legacy Virus to cause their powers to go berserk and kill themselves and thousands surrounding of humans. The Leper Queen was an unwilling participant compelled by Bastion. Beautiful Dreamer was the first. She was released into a Friends of Humanity rally in Ames, Iowa killing eleven hundred humans. Next was Fever Pitch in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The next target was the United Nations, and Boom-Boom, Hellion and Surge were all abducted for this purpose. While Hellion and Surge were sent to the U.N., Boom-Boom was kept as a decoy with the Leper Queen to lure the X-Force into killing her. The X-Force was successful in stopping the final attacks, narrowly saving Boom-Boom, Hellion and Surge and killing the Leper Queen. These mutant-caused mass murders were meant to compel the world to respond to the perceived mutant threat, and they were successful. Because of these incidents, the U.N. formed the Mutant Response Division.; Bolivar Trask - Inventor of the Sentinels - Trask used his connections in Washington, D.C. and the U.N. to be placed in a high ranking position in the newly formed Mutant Response Division to deal with the few mutants outside of Utopia (specifically X-Factor Investigations crew and possibly others). Like the Leper Queen, Trask appears to be resistant to Bastion's control. Leading the MRD troops to attack X-Factor at their safe house, Trask was briefly freed from Bastion's control when Monet attempted to read his mind. Trask used this moment of freedom to commit suicide by shooting himself in the head.; Stephen Lang - Head of Project: Armageddon - Like Trask, Lang was placed in a high ranking position in the Mutant Response Division. As Trask is dealing with the mutant population in New York City, Lang is hunting mutants in more remote locations. Recently he was stationed in Portugal to eliminate Vanisher at his safe house/brothel in Monsato. Lang served along with Creed as one of Bastion's close lieutenants when the other members of the Human Council had been killed. Lang and Creed were both converted into robot forms by Bastion to battle the X-Men on the Golden Gate Bridge; ===Necrosha===; Not long after the Human Council's formation, Eli Bard left to bring the T.O. Virus to Selene the Black Queen which lead to the events of Necrosha. He became a member of Selene's Inner Circle until his death. The mysteriously mutant resurrections across the world led Bastion to realizes that someone had gotten hold of the T.O. virus. This spurs him onto accelerating his mysterious plan.; ===Second Coming===; With the return of Cable and Hope, the Mutant Messiah, Bastion final plans for the extinction of mutantkind have begun. Bastion began tracking the pair to using Cable's T.O. virus as a beacon. Hodge's Smiley-Faces and Stryker's Purifiers have both been used to attempt to kill Hope. Once the X-Men understood how Bastion was tracking Cable they broke into two team: Nightcrawler, Rogue and Hope teleporting back to Utopia and Wolverine, Cable and the remainder of Alpha Team to act as decoys. Bastion quickly uncovered the deception and attempted to kill Hope personally, but he is confronted by Rogue and then damaged when Nightcrawler sacrifices himself to save Hope.; After Hope arrived on Utopia, Bastion launched the next phase of his plan. During the months leading up to Hope's return a large energy dome was built over the Bay Area to cut off the X-Men from escape or help. Once the dome was activated, Bastion opened a dimensional portal from his home reality to allow in more Nimrod-Series Sentinels. Like the original Nimrod, these Sentinels are able to detect, analyze and adapted to mutant powers. They are also self-repairing. The X-Men were barely able to subdue them, and several X-Men sustained severe injuries. Every five minutes a wave of five new Nimrod Sentinels continued to appear through the portal. Only by sending X-Force, Cable and Cypher into the future to reprogram and destroy the Nimrod Master Molds were the X-Men successful to defeating them.; Once the dimensional portal was closed, Bastion decided it was time to confront Hope personally. He converted both Lang and Creed into robot forms to battle the X-Men on the Golden Gate Bridge. However, Hope's mutant powers manifested which allowed her to destroy all three in battle.

+History:
+The Hulkbusters are a group of gamma-irradiated mutates that had banned together as a group of heroes. Their ranks included Bruce Banner who became the gamma spawned Hulk after the terrorist organization Hydra exploded his own gamma bomb with himself trapped inside; Leonard Samson who was forcibly injected with gamma radiation by government agent Jasper Sitwell into an abomination, however a blood transfusion from the Hulk stabilized his mutation; Lastly, Jennifer Walters who impulsively gave herself a blood transfusion and become the She-Hulk.; Shortly after their formation, they helped the Avengers battle the heralds of Galactus following the death of the Fantastic Four. She-Hulk joined Thor in battling Terrax in Attilan, killing the Herald. Doc Samson joined Namor, Captain America, and Hawkeye in battling Firelord on Monster Island. Lastly, Bruce Banner aided Dr. Doom, Iron Man, and Ant-Man in attempting to build a device to stop Galactus. This failed and, they all perished. However, Dr. Doom traveled back in time to change history and prevent Galactus from succeeding in his mission. This time around, the Hulkbusters saved the Fantastic Four from death, and Banner worked with the reunited Knights of the Atomic Roundtable in building an Ultimate Nullifier to ultimately stop Galactus.; The Hulkbusters broke up shortly thereafter, with the Hulk resuming his usual rampaging nature. He and She-Hulk were among the mass exodus of heroes from Counter-Earth to Earth-616 to save both Earths from destruction at the hands of the Celestials, and they were merged with their Earth-616 counterparts. The fate of Doc Samson remains unrevealed.

It's composed of elite operatives from the US military like Wild Bill and Glenn Talbot.; The Hulkbusters have some of the most latest and well-equipped equipment and weaponry provided by the US military.; They've been chasing the Hulk for months, following him wherever he goes. When they heard rumors of a skinny man wandering in Las Vegas, Ross had confirmed that it's Banner and ordered his forces to move in there at once.; Arriving on the scene where Hulk and Absorbing Man battled each other, they immediately attacked the Hulk with everything they got. But the green brute had smashed them all to pieces, leaving only the command vehicle where Ross is.; Ross would have been next to be smashed if not for the unexpected assistance from two agents S.H.I.E.L.D. sent in, Hawkeye and Black Widow. Enraged with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s interference, Ross have fired a large missile on the Hulk. The two agents would have been killed if not the green brute had saved them.; After being saved, Hulk was captured and the Hulkbusters were ordered to stand down, much to Ross' dismay.; After the Breakout, the Hulkbuster air and ground units were present there among the S.H.I.E.L.D. forces attempting to recapture the Hulk but were order to stand down by Fury due to the Avengers' interference.; The Hulkbusters were on the move again after the Hulk left the Avengers. They sent only one Hulkbuster infantry unit in the Cube trying to infiltrate the abandoned prison before the Abomination ambushed them and the Gamma Dome was projected and engulf the Hulkbuster soldiers,which their fates were unknown.; Ross had sent a contingent of Hulkbuster forces bolstered by three tanks and one attack helicopter with Wild Bill leading the operation near the Canadian border. They nearly had him if not for Hawkeye's interference. After defeated, Wild Bill ordered all forces withdraw from the area.; The Hulkbusters are in motion again when Ross (turned into the Red Hulk) had attacked the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, which may draw the Hulk's attention. After the battle, Ross had manipulated his Hulkbusters and S.H.I.E.L.D. to recapture Hulk as he's responsible for the Helicarrier attack, but nobody knew at the time that he was the Red Hulk.

Falcon entered the systems, and discovered a new controller was needed to release the victims of the swarm from it, but the new controller had to be merged with the swarm. Danny Ketch decided to become the controller and free the innocents and his teammates from the swarm. The floating city slowly fell apart, and as its former members fell from the sky, Stature and Falcon caught as many as they could. When M.O.D.O.K. tried to escape along with a rest of the swarm, Danny decided to sacrifice himself and explode the city in order to kill M.O.D.O.K..; Danny's consciousness survived after being transferred into the Gah Lak Tus nanites, and was recovered into a robotic body by the mysterious Agent Coulson.

+History:
+===Early years===; At some point, the anti-mutant sentiment start growing and gathering the humans, with the increase of the mutant population all over the United States and across the world.; During the March for Purity on Washington, D.C., the mutants rights advocate Dr. Henry McCoy was savagely beaten to death by a crowd of anti-mutant protesters.; ===Albany===; Anti-mutant sentiment reached to the top after the Phoenix blows up Albany, New York and killed around 600,000 people there To this day, mutants around the world still recognize Albany as a pivotal event.; Albany was bombed by the United States Air Force in order to kill the Phoenix.; ===The Decimation===; The U.S. government then sanctioned the creation of the mutant hunting robots, the Exonims, in mass-production.; Multiple operations (such as Clean-Sweep, or Red Hot) to round up mutants and human relatives of mutants. Executions, arrest or sterilizations were proceeded on the mutants and their family, possibly carriers of X-Gene. In the months that followed, the mutant population dropped drastically. This sharp decline in the mutant population became known as "The Decimation".; As the Emergency Powers Act passed, mutants were now imprisoned in the specialized prison of Alcatraz, where they were all executed. Researchers were even commissioned to develop a "cure" for mutancy.; Around the world, mutants were segregated and targeted. The United Kingdom attempted to exile their mutants to a small island off the north coast of Ireland. However, the ships never made it to their destination: one was bombed by Irish separatists, most of them turned back, and the last was liberated by the Mutant Liberation Front and the mutants escaped to Canada and the United States.; Those aiding or protecting mutants were arrested too. The popular superhero team, The Fantastic Four, was publicly arrested for harboring a mutant fugitive. Sue Storm herself reported the incident after the mutant injured her son Franklin.; Multiple mutant combatant groups formed during this period, among them the Mutant Liberation Front who perform attack on Trask Corporation subsidiaries in New York City, Magneto's Brotherhood and Acolytes, and Paige and Sam Guthrie. This team was infiltrated by the mutant Copycat, who was later killed by Paige.; In the mist of anti-mutant hysteria, the mutant "terrorist" known as Magneto organized several efforts to liberate mutants including campaigns in San Francisco, Genosha, Baton Rouge, and New York City.; ===The Avengers===; Following these numerous terrorist acts by Magneto and his followers, the U.S. government assembled an elite team of hero humans to hunt down these last mutants. The new team was dubbed The Avengers.; Among them were the scientists Bruce Banner and Tony Stark, both severely altered by encounters with mutants, the Ghost Rider, Captain America, the Invisible Woman in a quest of forgiven and the cold-blooded and obedient assassin Redback.; ===Fortress X===; In a show of force and to rally his fellow mutants, among the last, Magneto used his control of magnetism to literally steal multiple structures from Manhattan (including the Chrysler Building where were besieged numerous mutants), Empire State Building and Grand Central Station) and create his mutant safe haven, Fortress X.; The Avengers were tasked to find the Fortress and kill Magneto, but instead turned back and protected the mutant civilian from the Human Coalition and the Hulk, dying all in the process. The Force Warriors learned also from the Invisible Woman how to protect the Fortress using force fields.; Many bounties were put on the mutants remaining outside the Fortress, and the mutant-tracker known as the Doctor Strange operated many terminations for the Human Coalition. Unbeknown to the authorities, he was in fact escaping mutant fugitives into the Fortress, knowing that one day the humans would turned back their weapons on him and his kind.; And indeed, at some point, the Human Coalition discovered Nick Fury's Secret Warriors. As the Secret Warriors were kids from super-villains or super-heroes, they decided to also target the post-muties, and to proceed termination and sterilization on them, as for Spider-Man.; For thousands days, the Human Coalition keep assaulting the Fortress X without breaching the defense of the Mutant Resistance, but succeeding on killing numerous other mutants.; They eventually assaulted the mutants with their whole army and finally destroyed Fortress X, leading the mutants to fight harder than ever, facing their doom with no more shelter to hide. Soon after, the Human Coalition was erased with the rest of this reality by the mutant reality-warper David Haller.

Later, similar drones were deployed at nighttime to plant poison gas bombs across the city, which the Green Goblin had arranged to distract Spider-Man, but failed to prevent him from disarming them. HKs also attacked Spider-Man when he attempted to disable the Super Mech, but were unable to stop him from destroying the giant mech.

+Trivia: The Hunter-Killer spider robots appear in the 2002 Spider-Man video game. They are inspired by the Spider-Slayers, being named as such in storyboards for the game, as well as the BradyGames strategy guide, in which said production artwork is featured.; HK spiders appear in the "OsCorp's Gambit" level of the Spider-Man game, when playing on the "Hero" or "Super Hero" difficulty setting. They are stationed on multiple buildings where health and web powerups are located, and will attack the player if approached. Defeating these HKs are a bonus objective that will award the player with points.; Later on in the game, Spider-Man fights more Hunter Killer Spiders in the level "Corralled", then at the end of the next level "Scorpion's Rampage", Spider-Man says that the Hunter Killer Spiders attacked him before, referring to them attacking him in "OsCorp's Gambit"; The Vulture appears to use a variant of these spider robots, which grapple toward a target before self-destructing, rather than using ranged weapons. Vulture deploys these against Spider-Man after the hero inflitrates his clocktower lair, and is later seen maintaining one in his workshop. An animation test movie produced for the game, features Vulture handling a smaller variant while travelling in civilian guise on a subway train, which he conceals beneath his coat.; }
+History:
+Hunter-Killer spider robots were present in Midtown Manhattan when their flying humanoid counterparts attacked Spider-Man on orders of OsCorp, crawling on the outside of nearby buildings.; The HK spider robots were later deployed to capture both Spider-Man and the Scorpion, after it was determined that the two each possessed abilities that OsCorp hoped to replicate with its human enhancement project. Tens of Spider HKs pursued Scorpion through the sewers, ultimately chasing him to a parking garage near Grand Central Terminal. Peter Parker, coincidentally assigned to the area to photograph damage from an earlier attack, changes into his costume and becomes Spider-Man, to defend the Scorpion against this unprovoked assault on the curiously-garbed stranger. The robots commenced their deadly attack on both parties but were ultimately destroyed. However, the paranoid Scorpion turns on Spider-Man and flees soon after, misinterpreting the hero's involvement. After defeating Scorpion at the terminal's concourse, Spider-Man examined one of the damaged spider robots and mused on its purpose, the distraction allowing a recovered Scorpion to make his escape from the area.; Later, following the Green Goblin's attack on OsCorp's Unity Day Festival, an HK spider spies on Spider-Man's interaction with Mary Jane Watson, images of which the Goblin, Norman Osborn, later exploits.

He was an ecologist who believed that man's only salvation is to adapt and live in the sea. The followers of Doctor Hydro built an artificial island off the Atlantic coast, and used a chemical mist, the Terrigen Mists possibly acquired from Maelstrom and or Phaeder, which mutated them into green skinned scaly amphibians.; Dr. Hydro also used the chemical to hijack five airliners and expose the passengers as well. Namor the Sub-Mariner came to the rescue of the humans and defeated the cult. Namor was unable to restore the humans to normal, so he requested help from Mister Fantastic. Mister Fantastic discovered through studying the green mist, that it has the same properties of the Terrigen Mists used by the Inhumans in their Rites of Passage. With this knowledge and the help of the Inhumans' residential scientists, Mister Fantastic was then able to cure all the converted humans using an Anti-Terrigen Compound.

+Weapons: Each members' arsenal, Sol's Hammer, Antimatter Injection Systems
+Transportation: A Skrull stolen spaceship, Lockjaw, Quinjet
+Notes: The Black Panther was offered membership, but he declined, believing that working behind other super-heroes' backs was a bad idea and that the Illuminati would never be able to agree on how to solve the world's problems. After discovering the crisis of colliding universes however, he reconvened the Illuminati and joined.; An interesting point discovered by Reed Richards during the Dark Reign with the Bridge is that only sixty-seven Earths in other dimensions succeeded in attaining peace after suffering through the creation of the Illuminati and the Civil War.; The existence of the Illuminati was revealed to the general public during World War Hulk, and the full extent of their actions and involvement with the incursions was revealed after the formation of the Cabal.; While the name "Illuminati" appears to have begun as an informal name of the group used by Iron Man, the rest of the members have also adopted the name, and it grew into the "official" name of the group.; Black Swan was listed as being a member of the Illuminati in Infinity Vol 1 1 although she was not. This was later rectified by Tom Brevoort.
+Trivia: In order to verify each other, Illuminati members used the sign and countersign "Memento Mori" and "Illuminatus," respectively.; The real world "Illuminati" that the group is named after was an 18th century Bavarian secret society, which in modern times has become the subject of various conspiracy theories, often depicting them as a group of individuals who secretly rule the world.; A unknown individual hired clones of the Jackal to make clones of the original Illuminati members called the Killuminati.
+History:
+===Earth's Secret Protectors===; Within a week after the Kree-Skrull War, Iron Man of the Avengers gathered several superhuman leaders in Wakanda as he had realized that a unified front of heroes could collectively prevent dangerous threats before they occurred. His proposal was poorly received by the others involved; Namor the Sub-Mariner, the king of Atlantis, argued that such an endeavor would be uncontrollably unpredictable and would lack public support. Reed Richards, of the Fantastic Four, pointed out, however, that their scattered intelligence would be beneficial if communally shared. The Master of the Mystic Arts Doctor Strange echoed that such an initiative should be kept secret, and that the members would be moderated by the mental abilities of the mutant telepath and leader of the X-Men Professor Charles Xavier. The Inhuman royal Black Bolt rounded out the emerging cabal. However, their host and king of Wakanda, the Black Panther, vehemently opposed their covert organization, alleging that superhumans should not decide Earth's affairs solely by themselves and predicted that one day they would find themselves confronted by a crisis that completely and utterly divided them. Undeterred by Black Panther's speech, the newly christened "Illuminati" had their first point of discussion raised by Xavier in the form of the living island of Krakoa.; For years, the Illuminati secretly protected Earth. In retaliation for past schemes against Earth's heroes, they traveled to the homeworld of the Skrulls, who were still reeling from their defeat during the Kree-Skrull War on Earth. Making a show of force, the Illuminati warned the Skrulls from interfering in Earth's affairs again. Their mission went awry however, as they were captured. The Skrulls analyzed their captives in terms of physiology, genetics and technology, gleaning valuable information from their behavior, until Iron Man was able to lead an escape. The Illuminati recognized that a subsequent attack was inevitable, while the Skrull Empire began to make use of the data they had compiled against Earth. By using a clone of Reed Richards, as a result of having had access to his genetic material, the Skrulls were able to become undetectable by the superhumans of Earth.; The Illuminati searched for the Beyonder after his toying with several of Earth's most powerful superhumans. The Illuminati had mistakenly come to believe that the Beyonder was an Inhuman possessing a mutant X-Gene, whose subsequent exposure to the Terrigen Mists had given him godlike powers. Black Bolt, under the guise of the Beyonder's "king", convinced him to go into another dimension in exile. The Illuminati's effectiveness in this matter appears to have been close to nothing, since the Beyonder returned to torment the superhumans of Earth soon thereafter. It was later revealed that the Beyonder was actually the child of an all-powerful, extra-dimensional species.; In the wake of Thanos' near-destruction of the universe through use of the Infinity Gauntlet, Mister Fantastic revealed that he had been collecting the Infinity Gems, hoping to gather them all with the help of the Illuminati. Despite a general apprehension, the group managed to acquire all six gems. Upon doing so, Mister Fantastic attempted to will the Gems out of existence using the Infinity Gauntlet, but he was unable to do so. Faced with this failure, and a reprimand from the Watcher, he made the controversial decision to give each Illuminati member one gem to hide so that they would never be combined and used again.; Following an attempted invasion of Earth by the extradimensional Kree warrior Noh-Varr, the Illuminati approached him in his prison, the Cube. They showed him the Kree connection to the Inhumans, and their desire to protect the Earth. They demonstrated the primitive nature of humanity, but also the potential of the race to evolve and better itself. Ultimately, using Captain Marvel (a deceased, Kree-born hero who had fought for humanity) as an example, they tried to convince Noh-Varr to use his powers to protect the Earth and guide humans to better themselves.; When Iron Man informed the Illuminati of the formation of a new Avengers team in light of the mass breakout from the Raft, all but Namor wished him well in his endeavor. Iron Man proceeded to the issue of the golden hero Sentry. Although none of the Illuminati had any recollection of him, Mister Fantastic discovered that he had several files on the Sentry, leading Professor Xavier to realize that his mind had been tampered with. The files were used to get through to Robert Reynolds, the Sentry's civilian identity. The Illuminati summoned their respective groups to reverse what had been done to their memories of the Sentry. Iron Man guaranteed that the Avengers would take full responsibility for the Sentry.; ===Fractured Illuminati===; Following M-Day, a catastrophic decimation of mutants caused by the volatile Scarlet Witch tampering with the fabric reality, Professor Xavier went missing. Maria Hill, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., approached Iron Man concerning the Hulk, who had destroyed Las Vegas during another of his rampages. Hill argued that heroes such as Iron Man were ultimately to blame for the Hulk's rampages, since they knew he could not be controlled yet refused to find a permanent solution. Bringing the matter to the Illuminati, Iron Man caused their first disagreement by suggesting they exile the Hulk to an uninhabited planet where he would be left alone, as he had seemingly always wanted. Namor was the sole dissident to the plan and angrily unleashed his rage after the remaining Illuminati voted in favor of the idea. Finally agreeing with the Black Panther, Namor claimed that the Illuminati had spelled their own end, predicting that the Hulk would return and kill them all. Regardless, the rest of the Illuminati executed their plan by tricking the Hulk and trapping him inside a spaceship.; Despite deciding not to meet again after this, Iron Man called together the Illuminati to introduce them to the Superhuman Registration Act. He told them that recent disasters had raised public suspicion against super-powered individuals and groups. Wishing to avoid a civil war among heroes, which would cause untold damage, Iron Man argued again for a representative body of superheroes, urging the Illuminati to come out in favor of registration. Namor dismissed the issue as none of Atlantis' business, Doctor Strange and Black Bolt disagreed on principle, leaving only Mister Fantastic positive. As Black Panther had predicted, the Illuminati had been torn apart in a moment of crisis when they could not agree on a solution. As a result, Iron Man's prediction came true, and a war broke out between super heroes in favor and opposed to registration.; Although the Illuminati never met or operated as a group during the subsequent Civil War, their actions in the conflict reflected their reactions at the last meeting. Iron Man and Mr. Fantastic became two of the leading members of the pro-registration side and worked closely with the United States government and S.H.I.E.L.D. Dr. Strange stayed out of the conflict, meditating and fasting, though he later admitted, after joining the New Avengers and finding new love, that he regretted his lack of involvement. Afterwards, he joined the anti-registration New Avengers, who continued to operate underground without registering. Black Bolt and the Inhumans stayed out of the conflict but began their own Cold War with the United States as a result of a different conflict. Namor was involved only so far as it served his own interests. This included avenging the death of his cousin in the Stamford tragedy and coming to the aid of his friend Captain America's forces in the final battle. Professor Xavier was not on Earth during the conflict.; ===World War Hulk===; During the superhero civil war, Reed was contacted by Amadeus Cho, who informed him that the Hulk did not land on the intended planet. Unbeknownst to the Illuminati, he had landed on the savage world of Sakaar, first becoming a slave and then eventually freeing the enslaved peoples of the planet and becoming their new ruler, only for the shuttle that he had arrived in to detonate, destroying his capital city and killing his new wife and unborn child. Blaming the Illuminati, he returned to Earth at the head of an army to seek vengeance. His first act was to attack and defeat Black Bolt at the Inhuman settlement on the Moon. After providing the world with a twenty-four-hour time limit to hand over the other three Illuminati who had exiled him, the Hulk approached Xavier at his mansion to determine whether he would have supported the Illuminati's plan had he been present. He battled the X-Men, eventually beating every single X-Man present at Xavier's school. Xavier told Hulk that had he been there, he would have voted yes, and offered to turn himself over to the Hulk in exchange for the safety of the X-Men. However, after learning of the mutant population's recent severe losses as a result of M-Day, and the deaths of several of Xavier's students, the Hulk decided that the X-Men had suffered enough and that forcing Xavier to live with the fact that he was at least partially responsible for the deaths of his own students was sufficient punishment.; Having then taken over Manhattan Island, the Hulk was attacked by Iron Man in a new Hulkbuster armor, but just when it seemed that Tony had triumphed, the Hulk became enraged allowing him to destroy Stark's new armor along with Stark Tower. Despite the aid of the other members of the Fantastic Four, including temporary members Black Panther and Storm, the same fate befell Mr. Fantastic. Dr. Strange tried to enter the Hulk's mind, but Hulk tricked Strange into presenting himself in a physical form that he then attacked, crushing Stephen's hands. Strange later invoked and became possessed by the demon spirit of Zom, hoping that he could stop the Hulk before it was too late. However, he lost control of his newfound power, and almost caused civilians to die during his battle with the Hulk. Although the Hulk saved them, this made Strange lose confidence in his powers and made him weak enough for the Hulk to defeat.; Hulk then implanted the Illuminati members with obedience discs and forced them to fight each other in his makeshift gladiatorial ring in Madison Square Garden. The Hulk spared them from killing each other, claiming that he had proved his point to the world, and would now raze New York before leaving. They survived the encounter by the timely intervention of the Sentry, who battled the Hulk, but ultimately lost. When the Hulk's associate Miek admitted that he saw the Red King's forces breach the ship's warp core but kept quiet to initiate what Miek felt was the Hulk's destiny to become the "Worldbreaker", the Hulk completely lost control. Before he destroyed the world, Iron Man managed to disable his powers with an orbital strike, ending the conflict.; Namor, being the only Illuminati member opposed to shooting Hulk into space from the beginning, was spared by the Hulk for that reason, and remained uninvolved throughout the conflict.; ===Secret Invasion===; Iron Man called the Illuminati together yet again to show them the body of a Skrull that had been posing as Elektra. He believed that the Skrull represented a secret invasion of Earth, and that the Illuminati were responsible (after traveling to the Skrull homeworld years before). His suspicions were proven correct when Black Bolt revealed himself to be a disguised Skrull. The five remaining members were barely able to defeat it and its two compatriots. Realizing that they could not trust each other anymore, the Illuminati parted ways again.; Iron Man and Mister Fantastic were the two chief leaders of the superhuman forces during the Secret Invasion, taking central roles in the main battles, and were key to the ultimate failure of the Invasion, though at great cost to both of them. Iron Man brought the Skrull corpse to the world's top minds, and summoned Hank Pym (actually a Skrull named Criti Noll in disguise) and Mister Fantastic to examine and dissect the body. Just as Mister Fantastic ingeniously discovered the method of concealment the Skrulls had been utilizing to become virtually undetectable, Criti Noll acted, using a special, Skrull-designed gun to subdue Reed Richards and prevent him from maintaining solidity; the remaining members of the Fantastic Four were also swiftly taken out for most of the invasion, though all survived, if but barely.; Agent Abigail Brand of S.W.O.R.D. freed Mister Fantastic and took the Skrull ship he was held into the Savage Land, where Iron Man and his Avengers were fighting a battle against the Skrulls. The reinforcements turned the tide, but not before the Skrulls managed to infect Tony with an alien virus disabling him, his armor, and S.H.I.E.L.D. itself. After winning the battle in the Savage Land through Reed and Brand's intervention, the forces of Earth fought a final battle in New York, resulting in the defeat of the Skrulls.; In the final confrontation, Norman Osborn, formerly known as the Green Goblin and now head of the Thunderbolts programme, fired the shot that killed Skrull Empress Veranke. This made Osborn the hero of the invasion in the eyes of the public, and gave him enough political clout to assume Stark's role as head of S.H.I.E.L.D.; The Illuminati were deeply affected by the invasion, most of them finding themselves enemies of Norman Osborn and the new establishment. Tony Stark received the lion's share of the blame for the invasion, and lost S.H.I.E.L.D., a great deal of public support and popularity, and much of his pride and hope, becoming, essentially, a fugitive. Reed endured his own simmering conflict with Osborn, and constructed a machine to peer into alternate realities, hoping to find answers as to why things had gone so wrong in his own timeline.; Feeling compromised by his use of dark magic, Doctor Strange had left the New Avengers during the late stage of the infiltration and departed to parts unknown. He eventually resurfaced, alive but having lost nearly everything, from his sanctum to his position as Sorcerer Supreme. What he did retain were the enmities of the Hood and Dormammu, both of whom wanted to kill Strange more desperately than ever, and a sense of duty to find the new Sorcerer Supreme and hand over the artifacts of the office. Feeling a desperate lack of power, he went to the New Avengers for help.; Black Bolt (along with his son Ahura) were captured before World War Hulk and did not even know about the invasion. His voice was intended by the Skrulls to be used as a powerful weapon of mass destruction, but the Inhumans, aided by the renowned Kree, Ronan the Accuser, found their former king, rescued him and returned to Attilan. The Inhumans, shaken by the invasion and tiring of humanity, decided to depart from the Sol system, destroying the fleeing Skrull ship along the way and assumed control over the Kree Empire from Ronan, realizing their ultimate destiny in a conflict shaking the cosmos.; While Namor was deemed a target of great importance by the Skrulls, neither he nor Atlantis appeared to be especially hurt by the invasion.; ===Dark Reign===; During the "Dark Reign", as Osborn's period of authority came to be known, the Illuminati mostly ceased operations, with its membership divided and scattered. Black Bolt and the Inhumans had left the Earth and taken up rulership of the Kree Empire, Doctor Strange was no longer Sorcerer Supreme and was living as a fugitive from the authorities, Iron Man was distrusted by the public and living on the run, Namor had joined Osborn's version of the Illuminati, the Cabal, Xavier no longer led the X-Men and had gone on a journey of self-discovery after a failed attempt on his life, and Reed Richards was preoccupied with keeping the Fantastic Four together and his own troubles with Osborn.; Osborn eventually overextended himself, with his fall hastened by the manipulations of Loki. Namor abandoned his temporary alliance with Osborn after refusing to take harsh measures against a rogue Atlantean terror cell and aided the X-Men in finding refuge from Osborn's regime.; After his disastrous invasion of Asgard, Osborn's forces were defeated, and he lost his grip on power to a recently resurrected Steve Rogers.; ===The Hood's Search for the Infinity Gems===; Parker Robbins, aka The Hood, escaped prison and began a search for the Infinity Gauntlet. While at the Raft, he had received a tip from an imprisoned Inhuman which led him to the Reality Gem hidden in Attilan. Then, he teleported himself to the Baxter Building, where he used the first Gem's power to bypass security and take the Power Gem. The two Gems sent him unwittingly to the desert, where he found Red Hulk and defeated him. Red Hulk managed to get to Avengers Tower and bring news of what had happened. Realizing that the Gems were back in circulation, Iron Man quickly gathered the Illuminati, with Medusa answering the summons in place of her deceased husband.; The group went to Attilan to investigate but were discovered by three teams of Avengers, revealing the continued existence of the Illuminati to the superhero world. Their teammates were visibly hurt that these men had been operating secretly and considered it a breach of trust -- the wound between Iron Man and Steve Rogers was particularly deep. However, the Avengers teams united to search for the Gems before Robbins could obtain them. Namor, Thor, and Red Hulk recovered the Time Gem at the bottom of the sea. Xavier, along with the Secret Avengers, Wolverine, Spider-Woman and Maria Hill went to the ruins of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, where the Mind Gem was guarded by the Danger Room. The Space Gem was hidden at Area 51 in New Mexico, but when Iron Man, Mr. Fantastic, Doctor Strange, and some of the New Avengers arrived, Robbins already had it in his possession. The Space Gem brought Hood to the Time Gem, which was being protected by the Red Hulk, Thor, and Namor. Red Hulk managed to take the Power Gem from Hood when he was distracted by the presence of Uatu, the Watcher.; Faced with a cavalry charge of angry Avengers, Robbins escaped to Professor Xavier's school and obtained the Mind Gem, with which he defeated Xavier in a telepathic battle. After knocking him out along the rest of the heroes there, Robbins teleported to the location of the Soul Gem on the Astral Plane; there, Strange met Robbins disguised as the mad titan Thanos. He attempted to talk Robbins into giving over the other Gems, but when that failed, he took them both out of the Astral Plane and into the middle of a group of other heroes. Red Hulk attacked Robbins with the Power Gem, allowing Namor and Ms. Marvel to take the Mind and the Space Gems. Parker was unaware of these losses until the Reality Gem was taken from him by the other Gems, which were in the Infinity Gauntlet held by Iron Man.; Iron Man used the Gauntlet to send Robbins back to prison and then seemingly willed it out of existence. In reality he sent it to a secret location, where he reconvened the Illuminati. Now counting Steve Rogers among their number, they divided the Infinity Gems again and took them to new hiding places. The re-formation of the group was kept a secret.; ===Avengers vs. X-Men===; When the Phoenix Force returned to Earth, causing a war between the Avengers and the X-Men, Captain America re-convened the Illuminati to convince Namor, who was possessed by the Phoenix, to cease his activities and convince the rest of the Phoenix Five to do the same. The meeting proved to be unproductive as most of the members were split in opinions on the conflict, and all of them left, thinking Namor wouldn't come. Namor arrived in the room after the others had left. Captain America asked him to stand down, but Namor refused, although he acknowledged that he still respected Captain America as a friend, an ally and even a brother, which was why he wouldn't capture him or reveal any of their secrets to the other Phoenixes.; The Phoenix Five were eventually freed from the Phoenix's control, though Professor X would lose his life in the conflict.; ===Colliding Universes===; Secret Wars: Official Guide to the Marvel Multiverse Vol 1 1; After witnessing first-hand an incursion, an event wherein two universes collide with each universe's Earth as the point of impact, Black Panther realized the need for the Illuminati. Having captured the Black Swan, a mysterious super-powered individual responsible for destroying one of the Earths in the incursion Black Panther witnessed, the Illuminati set to work finding a solution to the phenomena. Beast later joined the team, after receiving Professor Xavier's infinity gem through his last will and testament.; With intel from the Black Swan, the Illuminati came to understand that the only way to save their universe, and the one colliding with theirs, was to either destroy the other Earth colliding with their own or destroy their own world. They resolved however to find a peaceful way of averting the crisis.; The group attempted to use the power of the Infinity Gauntlet to avert an incursion. While wielding the gauntlet, Captain America succeeded in pushing away the other Earth, but in the process the Gauntlet broke, and the gems shattered. Despite having failed and lacking any other method to peacefully avert an incursion, Captain America vehemently refused to go along with the idea of building weapons to destroy other planets, even if such weapons would only be used as a last resort. Finding themselves at an impasse, the rest of the Illuminati agreed to remove Captain America from the group, wiping his memory of their existence.; The members of the Illuminati began working on solutions to destroy other worlds. Iron Man began working on a partial Dyson Sphere to power a weapon Reed Richards named "Sol's Hammer". Doctor Strange retrieved a forbidden tome, with a spell that could destroy a world at an immense cost. T'Challa and Reed developed a large armory of world-killing devices reverse engineered from the world-destroying weapon Black Swan had used. When another incursion occurred, the Illuminati were unwilling to use their arsenal, resolving to at least try and save the other Earth's population. Before they could attempt to put any plans into place however, they were confronted by Terrax the Truly Enlightened, herald of Galaktus, who had led his master to the Earth in order to destroy it so that their universe would be spared any future incursions. He told the Illuminati to leave, but they engaged him in battle, managing to knock him out, and took him back to their hideout in the Necropolis while Galaktus consumed the other Earth, averting the incursion.; While interrogating Black Swan, who revealed that the incursions began with the "birth" of the Great Destroyer, another incursion struck, this time in Latveria. This incursion was different from the others, as the world they were colliding with was dead, an empty husk used by the Mapmakers, multiversal A.I. who use the incursions to move from universe to universe. After realizing that the colliding Earth was already dead and bereft of all life, Black Panther detonated the trigger of the Antimatter Injection System, destroying the other Earth and saving theirs.; Despite the overwhelming threat of the incursions, the Illuminati found themselves plagued by internal conflict. During the war between the Avengers and X-Men, Namor had unleashed a tidal wave on Wakanda, nearly destroying the city, prompting T'Challa to swear vengeance on him. As tensions between the two nations escalated, they were forced to set aside the conflict for the good of the planet. T'Challa was nevertheless unable to stop his countrymen from launching a surprise attack, decimating Atlantis.; ===Infinity===; Still coming to grips with the incursions, the Illuminati and the other heroes of Earth found themselves embroiled in a war on two fronts. The ancient race known as the Builders had launched an intergalactic crusade, attacking various alien civilizations with the ultimate goal of destroying the Earth to spare the universe of the incursions. While the vast majority of the Avengers were dealing with this alien threat, Thanos and his Black Order invaded the Earth. Destroyed by Wakanda's surprise attack, Namor and Atlantis secretly surrendered to Thanos. As vengeance for what had happened to his city, Namor directed the Mad Titan and his forces to Wakanda, telling them they would find the Infinity Gems there.; Thanos demanded a "tribute" in exchange for the survival of the Earth's inhabitants, whereupon Black Bolt revealed to the Illuminati that the Mad Titan was in fact searching for his secret son Thane, born to an Inhuman woman. Using the Terrigen Codex, the Illuminati embarked on the search for Thanos' son among several hidden Inhuman tribes, but were interrupted by the occurrence of a new incursion in Australia.; Before reaching a decision about what to do about the other Earth, the Illuminati were greeted by an Aleph arriving from the other universe. The Aleph led them to the Builders of that universe who explained that the early death of the multiverse had led to the collapse of the Superflow, the space between universes, that they used to traverse different realities. In order to avert disaster and ensure the continued existence of the multiverse, the Builders had decided to destroy all Earths, thus hopefully stopping the incursions. Since the Builders of Earth-616 had failed in their mission, having been defeated by an intergalactic coalition, these Builders urged the Illuminati to destroy their own world for the sake of the multiverse, before detonating the Earth of their universe, averting the incursion.; Upon returning to Earth, the Illuminati discovered that Thanos had invaded Wakanda and found their hideout in the Necropolis, gaining access to the Illuminati's antimatter bombs by capturing Black Bolt. The Illuminati managed to defeat Supergiant, one of Thanos' lieutenants left in charge of the Necropolis, with aid from Bolt's brother Maximus and Lockjaw.; The Illuminati travelled to Greenland in order to help the newly returned Avengers defeat Thanos but arrived after the battle had ended when his son trapped the Mad Titan and his two generals Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight in an amber construct which left them in a state of "living death." Iron Man convinced the Avengers to let him take care of Thanos and secretly placed him in the Necropolis, where he and the rest of the Illuminati were once again free to plan for the coming end of the multiverse, now alongside Maximus, who joined them in their efforts, though not as an official member.; After an incident with an alternate reality team of Avengers, Bruce Banner learned of the coming end of the multiverse and deduced that the Illuminati had been reconvened. He angrily confronted Tony Stark for bringing the Illuminati back after what they had done to him, but after Tony explained the incursions, Bruce chose to join them.; ===Incursion of Earth-4290001===; Seeking to learn more about the incursions, Black Swan prompted the Illuminati to build a "mirror" that would allow them to look into other universes. Reed Richards realized however that he had already built such a device; The Bridge, which he had used to seek answers after a crisis of faith during Osborn's time in power.; The next incursion pitted the Illuminati against the Great Society of Earth-4290001, a group of noble heroes who had been able to prevent the destruction of their Earth without bloodshed. However, the Society no longer had the means to prevent this incursion as they had the others. The Illuminati tried to convince the Society to work together with them, but the Society doubted that the Illuminati had any intentions of allowing their own world to be destroyed and knew that they had the means to destroy the Society's Earth. Knowing that it would come to bloodshed in the end and unwilling to waste anymore time, Namor struck the first blow, starting a battle for the fate of their respective worlds.; Even though the Great Society quickly took the upper hand, Doctor Strange ended the battle by unleashing an eldritch being that killed most of the Great Society and fatally injured their leader Sun God. Terrified of the creature that Strange had unleashed, the Illuminati knocked him out, ending the spell. As the Illuminati were leaving this Earth, having set the antimatter injector, Sun God begged them not to destroy his world. Black Panther offered him the chance to return with them, but he refused, preferring to die with his own Earth alongside his friends.; Back on their own world, and with only ten minutes before impact, the Illuminati debated who would activate the antimatter injector. Beast, Iron Man and Doctor Strange all refused. Both Mister Fantastic and Black Panther tried to will themselves to do it but failed. Namor was disgusted by their weakness, remarking that their own personal morality wasn't worth the countless lives that would end if the two universes collided, and pulled the trigger. Following this course of action, the Illuminati confronted Namor for taking the decision out of their hands. The friction between Namor and T'Challa escalated, and after revealing that he was the one who tricked the Black Order into assaulting Wakanda, Namor left.; ===Time Runs Out===; Just as the previous incursion had been averted, another incursion occurred. The Illuminati found themselves unwilling to destroy yet another Earth, and resolved to die with their own world, each seeking solace in their last day of life. Namor however refused to allow the universe to die, and together with Maximus, he freed the Illuminati's prisoners in the Necropolis, asking them to help him stop the incursions. This would lead to the formation of the Cabal.; Due to exposure to the explosion of the Watcher's eye, which revealed deep secrets related to those caught in its blast radius, Captain America remembered the mindwipe the Illuminati submitted him to, and confronted Iron Man about it. He decided that the Illuminati's actions couldn't be tolerated, and charged the Avengers with hunting them down.; Eight months into the future, the Illuminati had gone into hiding, and added to their ranks Captain Britain, Amadeus Cho, and Yellowjacket. They had also lost Dr. Strange, who had joined the Black Priests; and Tony Stark, who had gone missing. Because of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s increasingly effective methods of tracking them down, the Illuminati had to periodically move from base to base. After Cho infiltrated Avengers Tower, now the S.H.I.E.L.D. Station: Golgotha, the team recovered the files of the missing Tony Stark, which were key to helping the Illuminati gain an upper-hand.; While on the run, the Illuminati repeatedly attempted to find a way to solve the problem of the incursions, from trying to create a new Earth with a Cosmic Cube and then with Franklin Richards' powers, to asking the Celestials and Galactus for help, but all these plans failed.; With a new incursion on the horizon, the Illuminati devised a plan to get rid of Namor's Cabal, who had become officially sanctioned by the United Nations. They let themselves be found by Steve Rogers' Avengers, and set a trap to subdue them with the help of Sunspot's Avengers. Even though the help of the Invisible Woman was needed to make this possible, as Rogers' Avengers had brought their own reinforcements, the Illuminati were able to claim victory and shared their plan with Steve.; Namor, who had become disgusted with the Cabal's needless slaughter of the inhabitants of worlds they could destroy painlessly, was ready to turn himself in, but also to set a trap to destroy the Cabal. During the next incursion, Namor led the Cabal to the other Earth, activated the antimatter injector without their knowledge, and left them to die with said Earth, preventing them from escaping through the use of an A.I.M. platform capable of creating an impenetrable barrier between the two colliding Earths. However, as Namor had left the incursive Earth and prepared to activate the platform, Black Panther and Black Bolt appeared before him. They incapacitated Namor and threw him off the platform to the soon-to-be-destroyed Earth in order to make him personally pay for his crimes. As the antimatter injector began to destroy the Earth, T'Challa and Black Bolt returned to theirs, informing the Avengers that not only had the Cabal been destroyed, but also that Namor would not be coming back.; With the Cabal seemingly dealt with (even though they had actually survived and escaped to Earth-1610), the Illuminati and S.H.I.E.L.D. reached a truce and started working together. Inspired by Valeria Richards, the Illuminati stopped working on a way to stop the incursions and started planning the creation of a "life raft" to survive the destruction of the multiverse. Meanwhile, the Shi'ar empire discovered the link between the decay of the multiverse and the Earth, realizing that if the universe was to survive, the Earth needed to be destroyed. Even though they planned a sneak attack on the Earth, the Guardians of the Galaxy managed to discover the Shi'ar plans and warned the Avengers.; While approaching Earth, the Shi'ar alerted humanity that they had two hours left to live until Earth was destroyed by their fleet. Using a super-weapon capable of channeling the Earth's power, Sunspot and A.I.M. retaliated against the Shi'ar from the front, while S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Avengers used a Planetkiller, seized from the Builders, to attack from behind. However, A.I.M.'s weapon overheated and exploded, and the Planetkiller was destroyed by the Annihilation Wave. With no options left, the Avengers prepared to meet their end. They were rescued by Iron Man, who used Sol's Hammer to destroy the Shi'ar fleet.; ===Secret Wars===; The final incursion drew near, which pitted the last two remaining universes against each other, Earth-616 and Earth-1610. Having finished their life raft, they began assembling the chosen few who would be required to restart human civilization once the multiverse was destroyed. As the final incursion raged, and the heroes of the two worlds fought each other, Steve finally confronted Tony for having betrayed his trust. The two fought to the death, while the great battle between Earths raged around them.; While the heroes of Earth-616 managed to take the upper hand in the ensuing battle due to their larger population of superhumans, and the intervention of the Phoenix, the two worlds still collided. The only members of the Illuminati to survive the destruction of the multiverse were Mister Fantastic and Black Panther who were aboard the life raft created to survive the multiverse's end. They were joined by several other heroes, teleported onto the raft by Manifold. After the multiverse was no more, the life raft found its way onto Battleworld, a patchwork planet created from the remnants of destroyed universes by Doctor Doom.; Partnering with the Molecule Man, Doom had discovered that the all-powerful Beyonders had planned to destroy the entire multiverse as part of an experiment. To counteract this, Doom had begun destroying alternate reality versions of the Molecule Man, who had been created as a "bomb" with which the Beyonders would end the multiverse. Doing this eventually led to the incursions, and in time Doom assumed the identity of the "Great Destroyer", and gathered followers to aid him in his quest. Together with Doctor Strange, he had launched an all-out assault against the Beyonders, after discovering their weakness. He destroyed them but could not avert the end of the multiverse. Instead, he stole their power, and used it to create Battleworld.; The survivors of Earth-616 remained in a state of suspended animation for eight years until they were finally awoken by Dr. Strange, who had become God Emperor Doom's right hand and the sheriff of Battleworld. Strange had found the life raft three years earlier but didn't open it and kept it a secret, fearing its contents would've disturbed the order of Battleworld, where none of its inhabitants remembered what existed before the world they lived in. Strange had finally decided to open the raft up because of another one which had been found and opened, that contained the Cabal, the survivors of Earth-1610. Among the Cabal was its founder and former Illuminati member Namor, who had kept his treachery secret.; Strange was later killed by Emperor Doom after defying him by using his power to teleport and scatter the interlopers throughout Battleworld, in order to save them from Doom's wrath. Black Panther and Namor found themselves in the Battleworld domain of Egyptia, and formed an uneasy alliance to travel to Doctor Strange's Isle of Agamotto. After arriving at the isle and getting past the security measures, Namor and Black Panther were given by a recording of Strange two objects with enough power to defy Doom. The first was the Siege Courageous, a means of instant teleportation anywhere in the world. The second was an Infinity Gauntlet which granted the wearer unlimited power, but only in one area: the capital domain of Doomstadt.; Elsewhere, Reed had formed a similar alliance with his Earth-1610 counterpart the Maker. They hid in the domain of Utopolis and devised a way to defeat Doom. With help from the Spider-Man of Earth-616 and the Spider-Man of Earth-1610, it was discovered that Doom's power came from the Molecule Man, who was kept in a hidden chamber in Doomstadt. During a large insurrection whipped up by Maximus, the two Reeds set out to sneak into Emperor Doom's castle and confront the Molecule Man. Meanwhile, the Panther and Namor helped distract Doom by adding to the insurrection and confronting Victor directly.; Namor was quickly killed by Doom, and the Panther engaged Doom in battle. Even with the Infinity Gauntlet, Doom proved superior. However, the Panther's part of the plan was done, because during the fight, the two Reeds had managed to reach the Molecule Man. After the Molecule Man subdued the Maker, who had tried to betray Mr. Fantastic, Doom arrived on the scene. Molecule Man powered Doom down to make the ensuing fight against Mr. Fantastic fair. During the furious battle, Doom accused Richards of believing he could've done better if he had Doom's power. Reed conceded that he did, and retorted that deep down, Doom knew this to be true. Doom bitterly admitted the truth of this, and on the grounds that both agreed, Molecule Man gave his power to Reed, destroying Battleworld in the process. Using the Molecule Man's power, Reed then restored the Multiverse.; ===Keepers of Death===; The original members of the Illuminati briefly reconvened when the Maker, who had previously been imprisoned on Earth-616, escaped custody and stole equipment from them, both to further his own ends and as a taunt. The heroes managed to track him down, but arrived too late to stop him from escaping into a different reality, covering his tracks in the process. Shortly afterward, a new formation of the Illuminati assembled, including newcomers Emma Frost and Blue Marvel. They were sought out by the cosmic embodiment of Death, who desired to experience a human life and death. Bargaining with foreknowledge of Earth's future extinction, Death convinced the Illuminati to help her amnesiatically adopt the identity of Roberta Marshall, modelled after Marie Collins, a young girl from Fresno whose untimely demise had spurred on her decision. The team saw themselves forced to intervene when Thanos invaded Fresno in search of his mistress.; ==Membership and Structure==; The Illuminati was a clandestine council of equals. Any member of the group could call a meeting to raise a matter of their choosing, and the Illuminati reached decisions through majority voting, though some members would occasionally demand that the group reach a consensus.; The first meeting of the Illuminati, wherein the group was formed, consisted of seven of the world's most powerful and influential superhuman leaders. The original members were:; Tony Stark, the wealthy industrialist and inventor better known as Iron Man, representing Earth's premiere superhero group the Avengers and other "establishment" heroes.; Reed Richards, often considered the smartest man on Earth and a superhuman in his own right, representing the group of interdimensional explorers known as the Fantastic Four.; Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme and leader of the Defenders, representing both magical forces and "outsider" heroes.; Namor the Submariner, ruler of the underwater kingdom of Atlantis, lord of Earth's oceans, and an Alpha-level mutant.; Black Bolt, king of the hidden nation of Attilan, ruler of the Inhumans, and one of the world's most powerful superhumans.; Professor Charles Xavier, leader of the mutant X-Men and one of the world's most powerful telepaths, representing the growing mutant community.; Black Panther, ruler of the highly advanced nation of Wakanda. T'Challa declined to join the group during their initial meeting, keeping their secret but not becoming a member until years after the group's formation.; During the Hood's search for the Infinity Stones, the Illuminati were joined by two members:; Queen Medusa, who inherited the place of her husband Black Bolt, when he was believed to be deceased. Medusa learned of the Illuminati when she responded to the call intended for Black Bolt. She did not remain with the group after the Hood was defeated.; Captain America, who stumbled upon the Illuminati during the search for the Hood. Despite initially disapproving of them, he accepted membership following the Hood's defeat. In addition to also representing the Avengers, at the time of his inclusion he also represented S.H.I.E.L.D. and the intelligence community. He was removed from the group following his refusal to adhere to a vote during the Incursion crisis.; The discovery of the incursions and their eventual status as outlaws forced the Illuminati to expand their membership:; Beast, an original member of the X-Men and expert on mutation, was conscripted when the then-deceased Professor Xavier left him his Infinity Gem, as well as files on his involvement with the Illuminati.; Hank Pym, the brilliant inventor of Pym Particles and the hero known as Yellowjacket, was recruited to discover the origins of the incursions.; Bruce Banner, who had loathed the Illuminati, was invited in order to assuage his rage upon discovering that the group had persisted after launching him into space. He agreed to join and to spare the group after learning of the incursions, and added his scientific brilliance as well as the fire-power of the Hulk.; Amadeus Cho, one of the smartest men on Earth, was recruited by the Illuminati during their time on the run from S.H.I.E.L.D..; Captain Britain joined the Illuminati following the fall of the Starlight Citadel. In addition to being an extremely powerful superhuman, he represented the multiversal Captain Britain Corps.; When Death sought the Illuminati's help to achieve mortality, new members had joined the Illuminati:; Blue Marvel, whose intelligence contributed greatly to the team.; White Queen, who used her psychic powers to brainwash Death at her own request.; While not official members, the Illuminati also employed the services of:; Black Swan, initially a prisoner of the Illuminati, who taught them about the incursions and aided them in combating them. After learning of her sordid past, the Illuminati severed their partnership with Black Swan and re-imprisoned her.; Maximus the Mad, brilliant inventor and a powerful Inhuman, he was brought into the group by his brother Black Bolt. He aided the Illuminati in combating the incursions, but ultimately joined Namor in leaving the group and founding the Cabal.

+Trivia: The Super Hydra Agents were created by Hydra to kill the Avengers but failed in the end. In one panel, there are clearly at least six tubes, and when the Supreme Hydra sent them out, he ordered his agents to open "Tubes 1-4", implying that there are other tubes as-yet unopened.
+History:

Only Militant fought his counterpart (Captain America), and although he held his own, he was ordered to retreat, along with the other three.; Spider-Man later infiltrated their headquarters, where it was revealed each member has received altered genetics, explaining their strength and abilities.; However, later on the building was destroyed. The Hydra Four are presumed to still working with Hydra.

Neither Mar-Vell's power cosmic nor Black Bolt's shouts were enough to stop them. Xavier attempted to read their minds and take control of them, but discovered that each of them contained tens of thousands of minds, a revelation that debilitated him. Magneto tore the helmets off the enemy, revealing that they were all identical and lacked eyes.

+History:
+The Illuminati was a group composed of the greatest heroes of Earth-838. The Illuminati was founded by Dr. Strange, to make the difficult decisions to protect the world that no one else could. When Thanos invaded Earth, the Illuminati faced him. Strange, however, turned to the Darkhold, using its black magics to dreamwalk; projecting his own consciousness into the bodies of his alternate reality counterparts, in the hopes that the multiverse might hold the answer to defeating Thanos.; Strange would not find the answers he sought in the multiverse, and instead his actions led to an incursion, causing the destruction of an entire alternate universe. Strange confessed his mistakes to the Illuminati, and together they instead sought the Book of the Vishanti, which they used to defeat Thanos. Realizing that his use of the Darkhold had left him beyond salvation, Strange allowed the Illuminati to execute him following Thanos' defeat. Strange was replaced by Baron Mordo, who succeeded him as Sorcerer Supreme.; When an alternate reality version of Strange inadvertently made his way to their reality, Mordo captured him and had him brought before the Illuminati. Before the Illuminati could decide what to do with him, they were interrupted by the arrival of Wanda Maximoff, who was possessed by a version of herself from the same reality as the newly arrived Dr. Strange.; The Illuminati, with the exception of Mordo who remained to keep an eye on Strange, confronted her. Despite their attempts to talk her down, she began killing them, taking Black Bolt and Reed Richards by surprise, and defeating Captain Marvel and Captain Carter in combat. Xavier was the last to face her, using his telepathic powers in an attempt to reach out to his world's native Wanda. The Scarlet Witch ripped the head of Charles' telepathic projection in half, killing him in the real world.

+History:
+The Immortal Beasts (Chinese: 不朽神獸, Bùxiǔ Shénshòu) are a group of mythical beasts responsible for protecting the Seven Capital Cities of Heaven. After the Timestream Entanglement, almost all of the Immortal Weapons—except for Iron Fist, the Prince of Orphans and Dizang— disappeared, leaving most of the cities without their champion. The Prince himself eventually vanished right when Doctor Doom initiated a Shenloong trial to claim Shou-Lao's Chi from Iron Fist. Shou-Lao invoked the Immortal Beasts' Trial to thwart Doom's plans, as the Seven Cities were connected to the Heart of Heaven. With most of the Immortal Weapons missing, the Immortal Beasts selected new champions to represent them for the Trial.; ==Members==; Shou-Lao (Chinese: 壽老, Shòu Lǎo): The supreme Immortal Beast of K'un-Lun that saved and bestowed its Chi to the new Iron Fist—Lin Lie. As the leader of the Seven Capital Cities of Heaven, many challengers seek to seize its powers for themselves.; Vermillion Bird (Chinese: 朱雀, Zhūquè): Immortal Beast of K'un-Zi. It originally chose Susan Storm as the new Crane Mother, but was manipulated by Doom and Loki to select the latter instead, naming Loki as the Crane Deceiver.; White Tiger (Chinese: 白虎, Báihǔ): Immortal Beast of Tiger Island, who chose Angela as its champion, naming her Odin's Beautiful Daughter. It has a competitive nature and seeks to test its might against its fellow beasts. Aside from its Immortal Weapon, many others have been blessed with its power, including the War Tiger and those who have used its Amulets.; Black Tortoise (Chinese: 玄武, Xuánwǔ): Its serpent tails are known separately as the Immortal Beast "Xiangyao" (Chinese: 相繇, Xiāngyáo) in Peng Lai due to the beast's habit of shrouding its tortoise body from view, causing confusion about its true identity. Groot became its new Immortal Weapon, the Ironwood Serpent, after the events of the Timestream Entanglement.; Mountain Spider (Chinese: 山蜘蛛, Shān Zhīzhū): The protector and Immortal Beast of Spider-Kingdom. It chose Black Widow to be its new Immortal Weapon.; Xiezhi (Chinese: 獬豸, Xièzhì): Guardian of Z'Gambo; Huodou (Chinese: 禍鬥, Huòdòu): The Under City's Immortal Beast who chose Wolverine as its new champion, Dog Brother X.; Yinglong (Chinese: 應龍, Yīnglóng): The forgotten Immortal Beast of the Eighth City. Yinglong was long held captive by the Beast before being freed by Daredevil—who became the city's champion Dizang as a result.

+Other aliases: Super Guardians
+First appearance: X-Men Vol 1 107
+Created by: Chris Claremont; Dave Cockrum
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Elite Corps of the Shi'ar Empire, protectors of the Majestor/Majestrix. Formed by one champion of each Shi'ar world.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Shi'ar Empire
+Notes: Most members actually represent a series of members of the same race, with a single code name designated by the Guard for all members of that race. A legion of back-up or understudy members are known as Subguardians, while the elite active member of each class is a Superguardian.
+Trivia: The Imperial Guard and its members were originally designed as analogs of DC Comics' Legion of Super-Heroes.
+History:
+The Imperial Guard was a legion of super-powered champions from throughout the intergalactic Shi'ar Empire who acted as enforcers of Imperial law. The original Imperial Guard was formed to stop Rook'shir, a Shi'ar who became the host of the Phoenix Force. An elite corps of the Guard, dubbed Superguardians, protect the ruling emperor (majestor) or empress (majestrix) and carry out their personal directives. The other divisions, the Borderers, aid the governors of conquered worlds in enforcing Shi'ar law. The ranks of the Guard are fed by the Imperial Guard Training Academy or Subguardians.; When the X-Men sought to rescue the Princess-Majestrix Lilandra from her insane brother, then-Majestor D'ken, they fought members of the Guard on the planet of the M'kraan Crystal. With the aid of the Starjammers, the X-Men defeated the guard and saved the universe from destruction. The X-Men and the Guard subsequently clashed again after Lilandra had assumed the Shi'ar throne and sought to end the universal threat posed by the Phoenix Force, which had assumed the form of X-Man Jean Grey. This time, the Guard defeated the X-Men, but allowed them to return to Earth after the Phoenix seemingly committed suicide.; Later, the exiled Shi'ar Deathbird manipulated the Guard into believing the X-Men had kidnapped her sister, Lilandra. She was aided by the shifting loyalties of the Guard's Borderers faction. Despite the truth being revealed, Deathbird was able to usurp the throne. She forced the Guard to aid her in a search for the powerful "Phalkon," which was revealed to be the Phoenix Force, then wielded by Rachel Summers. In the ensuing clash with the Starjammers and Rachel's teammates in Excalibur, Deathbird and the Guard were defeated. Later, Deathbird and the Guard were attacked by members of the shapeshifting alien Skrulls. Deathbird was able to escape and enlisted the X-Men's aid in defeating the Skrulls, after which she abdicated the throne to Lilandra; however, the Skrulls were able to incite a war between the Shi'ar and the Kree that spilled over into Earth space, resulting in the Guard clashing with the Avengers. The war ended after the Kree population was decimated, leaving Lilandra with no other choice but to conquer the remaining Kree. The Kree Starforce became an adjunct to the Shi'ar Imperial Guard, and Deathbird was named viceroy of the Kree territories.; During the time when many Earth heroes were believed dead after a battle with the psionic being Onslaught, Lilandra dispatched a cadre of Guardsmen to help protect Earth. There, the Guardsmen uncovered a plot by a militant Kree faction to exact revenge for Earth's involvement in the Kree/Shi'ar war. The Guard ultimately proved triumphant, but not before the Kree's leader, the Supreme Intelligence, was recreated. Soon after, the Guard foiled an assassination attempt on Lilandra by the Kree Ronan and his unwilling agents, the Inhumans' Royal Family.; After Lilandra came under the mental possession of Cassandra Nova, the genetic twin of Charles Xavier who had usurped her brother's body, she was mentally coerced into dispatching the Guard to kill the X-Men. After a pitched battle, the X-Men were able to convince the Guard of the true threat, and together they defeated Nova and freed Lilandra.; The entire 300 member Guard came together to combat the threat of the Skornn.; After Vulcan ascended as Majestor and declared war on the Kree Empire, the Imperial Guard was deployed in the fighting, with their first mission being a show of strength by ambushing the wedding of Ronan the Accuser and the Inhuman princess Crystal. The Guard fought in important battles during the war, but Gladiator was eventually convinced to betray the Majestor and rebelled, eventually being made the new majestor after the deaths of Lilandra and Vulcan, and Deathbird being rendered comatose.; After the war with the Builders, Gladiator vowed to expand the Imperial Guard.

+Affiliation: Shi'ar Empire
+History:
+The Imperial Guard were the defenders of the Shi'ar throne, sworn to serve the ruler of the empire without question. They were led by Gladiator.; ===Hunt for the M'kraan Crystal===; When the Shi'ar emperor D'ken sought to use the power of the ancient M'kraan Crystal to become the ruler of the galaxy, his sister Lilandra stole the crystal and fled to Earth. D'Ken dispatched his agents to retrieve the crystal, eventually sending Gladiator to retrieve it. Gladiator was defeated by the Phoenix, ancient guardian of the crystal, prompting D'Ken and the rest of the Imperial Guard to travel to Earth.; The crystal was stolen by the Starjammers, whose leader Corsair offered to sell it to D'Ken. This was in fact a trap, as Corsair was hoping to kill D'Ken, but the Imperial Guard foiled the plot and claimed the crystal for their emperor. D'Ken cracked the crystal, causing it to consume him and to begin consuming the rest of the galaxy. Inside the crystal, D'Ken became a god. The Imperial Guard defected to Lilandra's side, aiding her allies the X-Men and the new host of the Phoenix; Jean Grey, in defeating D'Ken and rescuing the galaxy.; With D'Ken forever trapped within the crystal, which the Phoenix buried deep inside Earth's Sun, the Imperial Guard returned to their home, now serving Lilandra as new empress.; ===Dark Phoenix===; While Jean Grey was believed to have perished after taking the crystal into the sun, she was revealed to have survived. The Phoenix, intoxicated by the human emotions it was experiencing through Jean, had seized control of her and returned her to Earth, where she wreaked havoc. She eventually travelled to a deserted star-system monitored by the Shi'ar and consumed the native star, destroying all the orbiting planets. Concerned that the Phoenix's rampage would destroy an inhabited star-system next, Lilandra ordered the Imperial Guard to destroy the Phoenix.; The Imperial Guard arrived just as Professor X succeeded in repressing the Phoenix, trapping it within Jean's mind. The Shi'ar were undeterred however, unwilling to risk that the Phoenix might manifest again. Xavier managed to buy time by challenging the Shi'ar to trial by combat, pitting his X-Men against the Imperial Guard with Jean's life in the balance. The Imperial Guard were triumphant, but the battle awoke the Phoenix, which easily dispatched them.; Jean Grey managed to regain control long enough to kill herself. This allowed the Phoenix to return to its original, untarnished form. It resurrected Jean, and departed. With the galaxy safe, the Imperial Guard returned home.; In 1997, the Guard were seen fighting in the Kree-Shi'ar War.

+Led by their prince regent, Phalkan, the Imperial Guard of Seknarf Seven invaded the Earth with to abduct some of its inhabitants for food supply. Even though they were effortlessly deal with by the group of heroes that would become the Protectors, the battle proved to be a distraction that allowed Phalkan to activate a set of spears that teleported the heroes, numerous bystanders and a portion of the ground they were standing in to Seknarf Seven.; With Hulk, his allies and numerous bystanders captured, Phalkan announced that they had become a food colony for their planet, ordering them to offer three of their number after six hours had passed.; Phalkan and the Imperial Guard returned earlier after discovering that the humans were up to something. When the heroes, now dubbed the Protectors, fought back, Phalkan disabled the gravity generator, and threatened to do the same to the atmosphere generator unless the offering was given to him. Amadeus Cho was one of the three humans that surrendered. However, their offering turned out to be a ruse to catch Phalkan off-guard. The humans had managed to tinker with the machinery that provided life-support to disrupt the shielding that kept Cho depowered. Amadeus Hulked-out and knocked down Phalkan, unleashing a battle between the Imperial Guard and the Protectors.; The Imperial Guard focused their efforts on taking down the Hulk, but their armors were fried when he unleashed a blast of gamma radiation after reaching the necessary level of anger. With the villains hindered, the rest of the humans started to fight back. Jimmy Woo even got close to killing Phalkan. Hulk stopped the fight, arguing they shouldn't stoop to their level. Alpha Flight forces subsequently arrived, after having received an S.O.S. from Woo earlier, and arrested Phalkan and the Imperial Guard.

+History:
+The Imperial Guard's history is presumably similar to their Earth-616 counterpart's. As part of a diplomatic mission, the Imperial Guard received a new member from Earth, the teenager superhero Hyperion. He eventually became a trusted member of the Imperial Guard and helped stop Deathbird from seizing the Shi'ar throne. The Imperial Guard then made their way to Deathbird's secret hideaway known as the Treasure World, which was located in a bubble dimension between the universe and the Negative Zone. The Imperial Guard learned too late that Deathbird had been experimenting on Brood parasites that were believed to be extinct that began infecting the Imperial Guard's members. Hyperion, immune to the Brood's parasitism, was forced to seal the entrance to Treasure World, stranding the Imperial Guard inside so that they wouldn't infect the rest of the universe.; The infected Imperial Guard would eventually escape Treasure World and apparently infect the Shi'ar Empire, creating the Brood Imperium and turning the Shi'ar throneworld of Chandilar into their throneworld. The Imperial Guard were opposed by Hyperion and banished them to the Negative Zone. The Imperial Guard were able to escape along with other villains banished by Hyperion. They went to Cape Canaveral to steal a ship to get back to Chandilar, but they were stopped by Hyperion and once again banished to the Negative Zone.

+Notes: Very little has been revealed about the Imperial Guardians who were gathered together by Maximus.; Although Maximus claimed that Peter Quill had asked him to run the clandestine department that oversaw the Imperial Guardians, he never allowed Gamora to speak to Quill directly, citing the need for there to be separation and room for repudiation. This could have been the truth or Maximus could have been lying for his own ends.; While the identities of the ten people who made up Gamora's team and Death's Head's team are known, nothing has been revealed about the members of the other eighteen teams.; Nothing has been revealed about how Maximus recruited the members of Death's Head's team or about any of their "many" missions except for the one to Cinnibar.; The fact that, between them, the Imperial Guardians had carried out "hundreds" of missions while Gamora's team is only known to have gone on five missions suggests that Gamora's team may not have been the first team to be assembled by Maximus. Alternatively, some or all of the other teams may simply have been sent on missions more frequently that her team was.
+History:
+The Imperial Guardians were at least twenty secret teams of cosmic heroes assembled by Maximus the Mad. After getting exiled from the Inhuman Royal Family, Maximus was tasked by Peter Quill to form a group that would serve to protect the integrity of the newly-formed Galactic Union of which Quill was the president. These secret teams were to be hidden from public record and be comprised of individuals unaffiliated to any major power and who could be easily dismissed. Additionally, none of the teams were told of the existence of the other teams, so each team believed that they were the only Imperial Guardians.; For one of the teams, Maximus decided to bring in Gamora, Darkhawk, Cosmic Ghost Rider, Captain Marvel and Brawn, but problems arose from the start as, although Captain Marvel and Brawn were onboard with the idea, Gamora and Darkhawk were against working with Maximus and his lackey, the Cosmic Ghost Rider, and only agreed to join the team for the sake of maintaining peace. Gamora was made the leader of the Imperial Guardians due to most of the team being comprised of individuals from Earth to avoid any bias. The Cosmic Ghost Rider had his own secret reason for joining the team, as he had sensed "something real bad coming." This approaching supernatural threat was why the Rider had (or so he believed) tricked Maximus into putting together Gamora's team in the first place. To help her team be more anonymous and discreet, Gamora had Brawn design an incognito mode for them, sheaths of unstable molecules that made their wearers harder to identify. For that same reason, she also had her team members use their real names instead of their professional identities.; For one of the other teams, Maximus recruited Death's Head (as team leader), Century, the Galadorian Spaceknight Ikon (as Knightwatch), and the Earth heroes Quasar and U.S.Agent.; Three weeks after Gamora's team was assembled, their first mission was to stop the advance of the Kree Grand Admiral Sul-Hek whose crew piloted the Supremor-class ship, Wrath of Pama, which Maximus claimed carrying Antimatter Warheads. As the Inhumans worked to retake the throne of the Kree Empire, Sul-Hek was one of few high individuals who vehemently opposed their rule and planned to use the arsenal in his possession to threaten them out of it. The Imperial Guardians attacked the Wrath of Pama, splitting to attack it from different angles. Captain Marvel fought off the Kree drones outside the ship, Rider and Brawn fought the Kree Sentries near the ship's entrance, and Gamora and Darkhawk fought the crew inside. In that moment, Darkhawk learned through his visions that Sul-Hek didn't possess Antimatter Warheads but instead the extremely dangerous Null-Trons which, now that his ship had been crippled, he planned to unleash on the Large Magellanic Cloud, dooming the entire galaxy. Left with no other option, Captain Marvel went Binary and annihilated the entirety of the ship, killing Sul-Hek and his entire crew and destroying the Null-Trons before they could be activated. Moments before she destroyed the Wrath of Pama, Rider managed to get all of their teammates out of the radius of her blast, and with that the mission was considered a success. Unbeknownst to the rest of the team, Rider had also gotten hold of some Null-Tron replicator samples which he delivered to Maximus for his own use.; A second mission was to prevent the Xarth Sovereignty from recovering and activating a primed Shi'ar warfleet from a Receptacle, one of a number of secret Shi'ar weapons cache silos that had been hidden throughout the territory of the Shi'ar Empire several centuries ago. This particular Receptacle had been placed within the atmosphere well of the gas giant Kordaris, a planet which, due to changes made to the territorial boundaries over the centuries, was now within the domain of Xarth III. This lost Receptacle had recently been discovered by the Xarthians who had sent some of the Luminals, their meta-powered champions, to awaken the dormant starships. Although it would have been quicker to just blow up the Receptacle, doing so would have detonated the reactors of the fifty warships stored within it which would then have ignited the gas giant, resulting in a radiation flare that would have engulfed two Xarthian colony worlds. As a way to avoid killing anybody, Brawn proposed a plan which would enable him to reprogram the fleet's start-up sequence so that nobody would be able to awaken the warships anytime soon. Two days later, the team put his plan into operation, with Brawn staying on their jumpship while the other four boarded the Receptacle and placed decryption relays that were needed to force the control system to reset to default and give Brawn 10 seconds to rewrite the shut-out sequence. Although Captain Marvel and Darkhawk placed their relays without any opposition and were able to use the time to talk, Gamora was challenged by Cynosure, the leader of the Luminals, and the Rider was found by multiple other Luminals. While Gamora kept Cynosure occupied by merely fighting her to a standstill and the Rider killed (at least) ten of the Luminals who had attacked him, Brawn was found by Jarhead and two other Luminals. Once Jarhead had scanned Brawn's mind and learned their plan, he ordered that Brawn be executed. Brawn responded by activating his Hulkbuster Armor and easily defeating the three Luminals, then completed the rewrite. With their mission goal achieved, Gamora easily defeated Cynosure and the team left the Receptacle.; A third mission was to take the eminent Kymellian mathematician Syrus Greyflank into protective custody. Prime Calculan Greyflank had devised an algorithm that functioned as the ultimate universal passkey that could enable anyone to co-opt and takeover any tech system. Twelve hours after being briefed, the team were on the planet Nashruka where Brawn and Captain Marvel infiltrated the 167th Intercosmic Congress of Hypermathematics symposium while Gamora remained in their extraction vehicle, a catering delivery hopper, and Darkhawk and the Rider were stationed on the perimeter as security cover. Although the extraction initially seemed to be going smoothly, Brawn learned that Greyflank had mistaken him for one of the Shi'ar Superguardians who were supposed to extract him, as per a deal for his own safety that he had made with the Shi'ar Empire. Seconds later, four members of a Superguardian Rendition Squad attacked Brawn whose contact Greyflank had forced their hand, causing them to abandon their plan to quietly pick up Greyflank. When Captain Marvel abandoned her disguise as a server and, in incognito mode, supported Brawn by attacking the Smasher, she was telepathically attacked in turn by Oracle. Meanwhile, Darkhawk and the Rider were attacked by three other Superguardians, including Mentor, who used a Type K Quantum Damper to block the Rider's connection to the Power Cosmic, while Hussar attacked Gamora in the extraction vehicle. Eventually, after Smasher announced their intention to kill Greyflank if they could not take him themselves, Brawn responded by sending his armor to secure Greyflank in passive mode. However, this plan backfired because Greyflank was able to quickly use his algorithm to take control of the armor. With more Superguardians on the way and Oracle about to retrieve the algorithm from Greyflank's mind, the only place where it existed, Brawn regretfully ordered the armor to execute a contingency plan that wiped Greyflank's short-term memory, erasing his memories of the past year, including all his knowledge of his algorithm. With nothing left to be gained by fighting, both teams then left the planet.; By this time, Death's Head's team had successfully completed multiple clandestine missions for Maximus, but the non-mechanoid members of the team, having always had some doubts about Maximus' agenda, decided to begin snooping around, behind Maximus' back, to find out what he was up to.; A fourth mission was to investigate a secretive cult known as the Nightshape that was spreading rapidly through the outer fringes of the galaxy, with the potential to propagate instability and unrest for the Galactic Union. Although Captain Marvel thought that the Skrulls were behind the Nightshape and Gamora thought that it was more likely to be a new iteration of the Universal Church of Truth, Maxmimus didn't believe either of them to be responsible but did believe the cult was dangerous. He then informed the team that the cult was scouring the remote outworld for a prophesied object they called the Endrock, something that the cult believed would usher in a new era they called "the Shaped Night," and that an archeological research team on the planet Golgortus had recently reported cult activity near their dig site. Two days later, the team arrived on Golgortus but found the research base to be empty and powered down, with no sign of the 26 archeologists, a situation that even the Rider found creepy. While Captain Marvel and Brawn remained in the base on the surface, Gamora led Darkhawk and the Rider to investigate the subsurface dig levels. In ancient tunnels far beneath the surface, the trio encountered the expedition's leader, Doctor Barhees, who exhibited odd behavior that made them suspicious. When Barhees attempted to lead them to a new excavation where they could meet the rest of her team, Darkhawk experienced a vision of skeletons wearing spacesuits that revealed that Barhees was one of the Nightshape. With her cover blown, Barhees summoned other members of her team who manifested as tangible shadow beings. These entities quickly engulfed the trio and drained all power from them, reducing the Rider to cold bones and rendering Gamora's energy weapon useless. Even as Darkhawk was engulfed, other shadow beings attacked the duo on the surface, draining their power and subduing them. However, deep underground, the light that Darkhawk's amulet emitted proved to be toxic to the shadows, causing them to retreat from it. When asked if that location was the Endrock for which the cult had been searching, Barhees revealed that it wasn't but what they had found there would enable the cult to locate the Endrock. With Darkhawk's light showing her where the Nightshape were, Gamora attecked Barhees and then she and Darkhawk drove the shadows back. Once the shadows were gone, Gamora and Darkhawk found the bodies of their dead that they had left behind, leading Gamora to speculate that the shadows were using those people as puppets and that perhaps all members of the cult were possessed by the tangible shadows. The team subsequently discovered that surviving cultists had fled in the archeologists' ship, taking the artifacts they had wanted with them.; Having learned that Death's Head team was covertly investigating him, Maximus came to regard them and Gamora's team, who had also been asking him questions, as threats to his agenda. Realizing that he would be unable to handle them the way he had hoped, Maximus concluded that they had outlived their usefulness and began setting up a situation that would cause them to kill each other.; When Gamora's team reported back to Maximus in his office, Maximus first informed them that his data assets had uncovered a conspiracy to assassinate Peter Quill and replace him as head of the Galactic Union. Maximus claimed that the conspirators were supposedly a Skrull terror cell left over from the last war who were then on Cinnibar where they had disguised themselves. Maximus ordered Gamora's team to go to Cinnibar and kill the terrorists. When Gamora, Danvers and Cho delivered their report on the Golgartus mission to Maximus, he announced that the results were unsettling and unsatisfactory, but when Cho asked what their next move should be, Maximus told them to leave it to him and that he would inform them when he had an actionable plan. He then told them to deal with their urgent mission on Cinnibar and dismissed them. Once they were alone, the trio agreed to begin covertly snooping. Soon afterwards, Death's Head's team, who were already on Cinnibar, were sent intel about a conspiracy to assassinate Peter Quill and replace him as head of the Galactic Union and that their mission was to stop it.; Two days later, on one of the floating cities of Cinnibar, Gamora's team encountered Death's Head's team, and, as Maximus had planned, each team believed that the other team were shape-shifting terrorists. As the two teams began fighting, Century used Parallax to create a warp that teleported the Rider 8.6 parsecs away, taking him out of the fight. As the rest of them continued trying to kill each other, they began to notice that the situation might not have been what they had been told it was. Before any of them could be killed, Darkhawk and Quasar, who were old friends, realized that they both were who they claimed to be, and they managed to get both teams to stop fighting long enough to prove that Gamora's team were not, as they had been told, a terrorist cell made up of Shi'ar Changelings. When the teams then compared notes, they realized that Maximus had been running multiple black-ops teams and that he had sent both squads to Cinnibar to erase each other. When the Rider returned, Gamora prevented him from continuing the battle by confronting him with what they had learned.; Later, Gamora's team travelled to Maximus' office but found that it had been abandoned and Maximus was long gone. Although Maximus had wiped most of his data files before he left, enough files remained for Brawn to determine that Maximus had been running about twenty Imperial Guardians squads like theirs, that they had carried out hundred of missions, and that a lot of those missions had been uglier than those in which Gamora's team had been involved. Believing that the Galactic Union still needed guardians to protect them from various threats, Gamora asked Danvers and Cho to return to Earth to make sure that Maximus hadn't done anything there while she, Darkhawk and the Cosmic Ghost Rider hunted down Maximus, believing that the fact that he had betrayed them and had tried to have them killed meant that he could also turn on the Union he had claimed he wanted to protect and on Peter Quill.

During the final stages of the conflict, he remained within a force-field sanctuary alongside Spider-Man and Luke Cage. When the latter two were cured of the Hunger, Gladiator declared that everything inside the enclosure belonged to him and that he intended to consume it all. In response, Spider-Man reminded him of the hero he had once been: the noble commander of the Imperial Guard and a protector of the Shi’ar people.

The team was disbanded after the gems ended up in the Ultraverse.; Following the destruction and rebirth of the Infinity Stones, these relics of power became scattered across the universe. They eventually fell in the hands of these individuals: Warlock (the Soul Stone), Turk Barrett (the Mind Stone), Black Widow (the Space Stone), Star-Lord (the Power Stone), Captain Marvel (the Reality Stone) and Super-Skrull (the Time Stone). After Doctor Strange stole the Time Stone from the Super-Skrull, he contacted the other wielders of the Infinity Stones and requested parley to reassemble the Infinity Watch for the sake of the gem's protection.; The Infinity Watch convened in Central Park on Earth. Their meeting was interrupted by the arrival of Gamora, who set out to collect the Infinity Stones as part of a plan to reunite with a fragment of herself that was trapped within the Soul Gem. In the middle of the ensuing fight, Doctor Strange convinced Turk Barrett to hand over the Mind Stone and walk away. After taking the Reality Stone from Captain Marvel, Gamora progessively got hold of the rest, murdering Warlock in the process.

+History:
+The Institute of Evil were a super-villain team of Earth-712 whose principal enemies were that world's premier super-hero team the Squadron Supreme. They had apparently battled the Squadron on many occasions, but at one time made the mistake of kidnapping the Squadron members' various loved ones. They were defeated by the Squadron, who at that time possessed the Behaviour Modification Device, which was capable of altering criminals' minds and forcing them to reform. As the Squadron had recently lost several members, they voted by a majority to behavior-modify the Institute members (bar Mink, who was not with the team at that time and remained at large) and recruit them to the Squadron. They served with the Squadron for a time with no problems. However, soon Doctor Decibel was killed when he drowned in Quagmire's otherdimensional tar-like substance, and Quagmire was apparently killed in the same incident (though had actually been transported to another dimension). Ape X, meanwhile, was rendered catatonic when she was confronted with a moral dilemma that clashed with her behavior-modification.; However, the former Squadron member Nighthawk, who had left the team in protest at the idea of behavior-modification of criminals, began recruiting members for a team to oppose the Squadron, the Redeemers. He and his comrades began abducting the remaining former Institute members and reversing their behavior-modification so he could recruit them to his team. When the Redeemers confronted the Squadron, the former Institute members showed their true colors and fought the heroes. Two of them, however, were killed in the resulting battle - Lamprey was killed when he tried to absorb all the energy in Doctor Spectrum's Power Prism, and Foxfire because she remained loyal to the Squadron and killed Nighthawk, only to be killed by the Mink in return. Shape remained loyal to the Squadron too, and remains with them to this day. Of the other former Institute members, the Mink survives and possibly went back to her criminal ways, Quagmire crossed over to Earth-616, and Ape X is possibly still in her catatonic state.

+Trivia: The concept of a team called "the Invaders" was originally conceived by Stan Lee for the name of a team comprising Namor and the Hulk, when he considered merging their solo features in Tales to Astonish Vol 1, but the idea was eventually dropped. When Roy Thomas pitched the idea of a team of superheroes set during World War II, he remembered that Stan Lee liked the name "Invaders" and worked it into his pitch of the book.; The prototype for the Invaders, the All-Winners Squad, was a Golden Age comic book feature with only two appearances in All Winners Comics Vol 1 19 (Fall 1946) and All Winners Comics Vol 1 21 (Winter 1946; After the Invaders' introduction in the pages of Avengers, the team appeared in its own try-out title, Giant-Size Invaders #1 in 1975, followed by the ongoing series Invaders later that year, and a single annual in 1977. Issues #5–6 of the series introduced another retcon World War II team, the Liberty Legion, in two parts of a story arc, "The Red Skull Strikes", interlaced with another two parts in Marvel Premiere #29–30.
+History:
+===Formation===; Originally, Captain America, his sidekick Bucky, the original android Human Torch, the Torch's sidekick Toro, and Namor the Sub-Mariner were together as heroes opposing the forces of Nazism. When these superheroes saved the life of Britain's Prime Minister Winston Churchill from Master Man, the thankful Churchill suggested that they should become a team, known as the Invaders.; The Invaders fought the Axis Powers, saving Churchill once again from an attack by U-Man and were brain-washed by the Red Skull into attacking the allies. Eventually they found themselves in England, where they met Lord James Montgomery Falsworth, the original WWI-era Union Jack. He joined the team and provided them with a base of operations in England. However, his legs were crushed during their first mission to stop Baron Blood. Eventually Falsworth's children Brian (the second Union Jack) and Jacqueline (Spitfire) became members. The team later added Miss America and super-speedster the Whizzer, during a battle with the Super-Axis. Later, against the threat of the Battle-Axis, the team added the Blazing Skull and the Silver Scorpion to its roster.; During a mission in which they allied themselves with Major Liberty as Captain America was busy with another assignment and Toro had appendicitis, the Invaders (Bucky, Human Torch and Namor) discovered Baron Strucker had acquired a powerful artifact named the Gods' Whisperer which let him control Asgardian gods, and used it to make Hela fight the Allies. Strucker was defeated, and Hela returned to her realm, and the Invaders were left with the Whisperer. They decided the artifact was too powerful to be in control of anyone, and decided to break it into three pieces each of them would hide from anyone. With the help of The Vision, they forgot said events.; In December of 1943, the Invaders were sent to Monte Cassino in Italy in order to retrieve a highly coveted weapon known as the Ordnung Zeitgeist before Hitler's forces could lay claim to it. They encountered a strange green mist that propelled them sixty years into the future where they encountered their modern day successors, the Avengers. Note: The events surrounding this incident have not yet been fully revealed.; The Invaders killed an entire village of civilians in the Netherlands, where they burned and killed a civilian populace, having no other choice, since the civilians became deformed, mindless monsters that turned anything they bit into one of them.; The team continued to fight against several threats, and faced an emotional trauma with the apparent deaths of Captain America and Bucky in a drone aircraft's explosion near the end of World War II. After the war's end, several members—including the second Bucky and Captain America (respectively, Fred Davis and William Nasland, formerly the superhero Spirit of '76)—created a new team, the All-Winners Squad.; ===New Invaders===; The Modern Invaders team consisted of U.S.Agent (John Walker, the fifth Captain America); ageless android the Human Torch; former Liberty Legion member the Thin Man (Dr. Bruce Dickson), who remained ageless as, evidently, a by-product of his transformation in the super-scientific haven Kalahia; and the Blazing Skull (Mark Todd), who remained ageless due to supernatural means. The Invaders were also assisted by former Golden Age hero The Fin and his Atlantean wife Nia, although they did not officially join the team.; They were formed by the putative U.S. Secretary of Defense Dell Rusk—in actuality the Red Skull—who coerced the Thin Man into gathering this new team, which the Skull intended to use for his own goals. The new Invaders eventually learned of the plan, however and thwarted it, but at the cost of the apparent "death" of the android Human Torch. The majority of the members quit the team after this.; ===All-New Invaders===; Years later, after Namor was kidnapped by the Kree to obtain the location of his piece of the Gods' Whisperer, Jimmy Hammond and the Winter Soldier were attacked by Kree soldiers, who used a special device in each of them to obtain the information of the location of each one of their pieces. With the help of Captain America, the Winter Soldier managed to save the Human Torch from his attackers, and decided to reform the Invaders in order to rescue Namor from Hala, the Kree homeworld, and prevent the aliens from using the Whisperer.; As soon as they got to Hala with the help of the original Vision, the Invaders were ambushed by the Pursuer Corps and later forced to fight the Whisperer-controlled Ikaris. By faking his death, the Winter Soldier managed to get to and free the captured Vision and distract Tanalth long enough for Captain America and the Human Torch to subdue the Kree soldiers present in the battle while Namor fought Ikaris. The Vision teleported to get help from the Eternals and recover the Whisperer. After that, the Invaders returned to Earth and later disbanded.; The Winter Soldier, Namor and the Human Torch reformed the Invaders in order to rescue their former teammate, Toro. Iron Cross, Radiance, Captain America (Sam Wilson), and Toro would later join the team.; ==The Invaders==; Initial roster:; Captain America (Steve Rogers); Bucky/Winter Soldier (James Buchanan Barnes); Human Torch (Jim Hammond / Android); Toro (Thomas Raymond); Namor the Sub-Mariner (Namor McKenzie); Later WWII recruits:; Union Jack I (Lord James Montgomery Falsworth); Union Jack II (Lord Brian Falsworth); Spitfire (Lady Jacqueline Falsworth); Miss America (Madeline Joyce); Whizzer (Robert Frank); Vision (Aarkus); Blazing Skull (Mark Todd); Silver Scorpion (Elizabeth Barstow); Spirit of '76 / Captain America II (William Nasland); Bucky II (Fred Davis); Modern recruits:; Destroyer (Roger Aubrey); Iron Cross (Carrie Gruler); Radiance (Ryoko Sabuki); Captain America (Sam Wilson)

Also, believing that they were worshiping God, they were really carrying out pagan rites for a race of demons living in another dimension. Jeremiah used his powers to keep the Innocents in a hypnotic trance-like state and they would do anything he commanded of them. When Jeremiah found himself fighting against the Human Torch, his followers even tried to obey his command to walk into a wall of flame, causing the Human Torch to relent in his attack. Eventually Jeremiah was stopped through the combined efforts of the Human Torch and Doctor Strange. Once out of contact with Jeremiah, the other cultists were freed of his influence.

+Trivia: The Intelligencia created a list to rank the smartest men on Earth.
+History:
+A group comprised of some of the greatest and most sinister minds on Earth, the Intelligencia was initially a group formed to exchange information between criminal geniuses without them fighting each other. Their principal work together was the stealing of the different parts of the Library of Alexandria, scattered in Wakanda, Atlantis, and Olympia. Their activities caused the coming of the Beyonder by using a tachyon ray, and they also healed the Venom symbiote in the aftermath of the Secret Wars. Eventually, the Intelligencia was betrayed by Doctor Doom and disbanded. But later, when the Hulk returned to Earth and decided to wage war on the planet, M.O.D.O.K. and the Leader reformulated the team, hacking into defense satellites and channeling cosmic energy through them which ultimately led to the Hulk's defeat. Through this information that they had gathered, the Intelligencia discovered how to combine gamma and cosmic radiation to create a powerful being.; They approached General Thunderbolt Ross and convinced him to become their ultimate weapon, the Red Hulk, as part of a scheme to defeat the Hulk and conquer the world. Many of the Hulk's allies were captured, brainwashed and transformed into Cosmic-Gamma Mutates, such as the Red She-Hulk, A-Bomb, and Amadeus Cho. The plan ultimately failed; Amadeus used his recently gained powers to change M.O.D.O.K. back into George Tarleton again, and the Red Hulk drained the Leader's body of all of its gamma radiation so that he was no longer the Leader.; A more recent line-up, composed of M.O.D.O.K. Superior, the Wizard, the Mad Thinker and his Awesome Android, the Red Ghost and his Super-Apes, and the Chameleon disguised as Klaw, developed a new weapon with the ability of sending specific objects into space called the Zero Cannon. With it, the Sinister Six killed the Winter Guard and most of the members of the Intelligencia, with only M.O.D.O.K. Superior, some A.I.M. agents, and one Super-Ape surviving.; M.O.D.O.K. Superior then managed to ressurrect the dead members of the Intelligencia, as well as make space for the Trapster to join the team, and formulate a plan after their predicted shattering of the super-hero community. Their meeting was interrupted by Deadpool, who tried to sink the ship they were on, but he was defeated by the Trapster.; The Intelligencia appeared to disband after some of its members, including the Wizard and the Mad Thinker, were apprehended by Victor von Doom, who had turned over a new leaf and taken up the mantle of Iron Man. Sometime later, a New Intelligencia rose up to take its place.

+History:
+To accomplish her goal, Selene employed her former lover Eliphas (now known as Eli Bard), who had been her loyal companion in Ancient Rome. Bard had acquired the ability to infect others with the techno-organic virus. The virus had been used by his previous employer, Bastion, to resurrect and control notable anti-mutant humans hell bent on eliminating mutantkind. For Selene's purposes Bard would use this ability to resurrect an army of mutants to do her bidding (Selene's own mystical abilities came into play, but the effects of her powers are unknown).; Bard first resurrected the mutant Caliban, whose ability to sense and track mutants would prove useful in locating the bodies of deceased mutants. The trio then began to resurrect key mutants whose resurrection and attack would provide emotional turmoil to the X-Men. Before long, the group began resurrecting the millions of mutants who died on the nation of Genosha.; The collective group's first mission together was to seek revenge on Selene's behalf by massacring a building of one of the Hellfire Club's branches.; Blink then teleported the legion of mind-controlled, resurrected mutants to the mutant haven of Utopia where the X-Men dwelled.; Eli Bard revealed to Blink his failure to retrieve an ancient relic dagger after stabbing the Demon Bear with it when he had resurrected both Caliban and John Proudstar into a Cheyenne graveyard. Upon realizing it was vital to Selene's ascension into a goddess, Bard asked Blink to help him retrieve. She agreed, but instead of helping him, Blink teleported the pair to Selene and spilled Bard's betrayal to her leader. Selene was disappointed with Bard and instructed the Inner Circle to teleport to Utopia themselves to retrieve it. The group ambushed the X-Men as they were already near defeat against Risque, Firefist, Darkstar and Bolt.

+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The Inciters are an alien techno-organic collective being, capable of forcibly assimilating organic life and making them part of their collective in order to use as fuel. Although long spoken of as part of Shi'ar folklore, their actual existence was not confirmed until recently, when they emerged from a rift in space, destroying the planet Zenn-La and absorbing its people.; The Inciters went on to manipulate the powers of the human hero Binary, tricking her into believing she was stabilizing a star on the verge of going supernova. In reality, they had arranged things so that her powers would actually accelerate the star's destruction, causing it to go supernova at the same time as two other stars they had affected, setting off a chain reaction that would have destroyed much of the Andromeda and Milky Way galaxies, devastating Earth, Chandilar, and Hala alongside countless other worlds. Whether this devastation was intended to further empower the Inciters or was simply a means of destroying any threats to them is unclear.; When their plan was uncovered by the X-Man Beast, the Silver Surfer and Rogue flew to the Inciters' location and engaged them in battle. Rogue was briefly assimilated into their collective, but was freed by the Silver Surfer, who used the Power Cosmic to obliterate the Inciters and bring an end to the suffering of the billions they had enslaved.; Following these events, the Shi'ar ruler Lilandra chose not to make public any information about the Inciters, fearing that revealing that the Inciters actually existed would cause turmoil and unrest throughout Shi'ar society.

+Species / origin: Originally kidnapped, as infants, during the Inferno, by N'astirh's N'asteris. They were rescued by the X-Terminators and New Mutants and given to the US government. Now all grown up, warped by Limbo, and trained for combat by Project Purgatory, General Ulysses, and Doctor Noc.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: The Hatchery, Limbo
+Notes: In X-Terminators Vol 1 2 N'astirh says that he needs thirteen children, who will act as focuses for his power and open gate from Limbo to Earth.:; Ten of them are the Inferno Babies who were used in vertex of the pentagram-gate; In X-Terminators Vol 1 3 N'astirh goes on to say, "I require one more infant to channel power for the entrance spell. And three more after that for final transformation. But that problem is even now being solved.*" with a footnote to see X-Factor Vol 1 36. The "one more infant" is Christopher Summers. The three other babies are discovered on the top of the Empire State Building by X-Factor & the X-Men in X-Factor Vol 1 38 after Goblin Queen dies and it reverts to normal.
+History:
+===Inferno===; Using information from Cameron Hodge, thirteen mutant babies were kidnapped by N'astirh's N'asteris, during the Inferno. The infants arrived in a cemetery, where the demon N'astirh was attempting to create a permanent portal between the demon infested dimension of Limbo and Earth. The infants were teleported to Times Square, where the New Mutant, Magik, was opening a portal to return her teammates from Limbo and N'astirh, using the babies as the points of an inverted pentagram (focusing beams of power because of their purity and openness to use them as natural, living conduits who could not block the flow of power and who would not know how to shut it off), kept the portal open. N'astirh attempted to use them, and baby Christopher Summers, to open a portal from Limbo to Earth and was partially successful in merging the two realms. The X-Terminators and the New Mutants saved the children.; After the defeat of N'astirh, the Goblin Queen attempted to sacrifice baby Christopher and three other mutant babies atop the Empire State Building to finish N'astirh's work and permanently open a gateway between Earth and Limbo. The invasion was thwarted after the Goblin Queen committed suicide in combat with Marvel Girl, attempting to kill everyone in her power. After the X-Terminators and New Mutants took the babies to X-Factor's Celestial Ship, X-Factor turned the babies over to the US government, after being attacked by Nanny and Orphan-Maker.; ===Project Purgatory===; For many years the fate of children remained unknown. Following the Inferno, the United States Army founded Project Purgatory to research the fields of the supernatural and paranormal. One of the recruited scientists, Doctor Noc, developed technology to use the children to open portals to Limbo. General Ulysses, Doctor Noc, and a trained band of soldiers established a military base in Limbo; the Hatchery. At the base, they continued to experiment, both on demons and on the Inferno babies. However, when the soldiers recovered the Bloodstone amulet, the base was attacked by Witchfire and the Inferno babies were believed dead. The Earth-based military forces sealed off portal Epsilon, leaving those on the Limbo base stranded with virtually no hope of escape.; Their time in Limbo moulded most of the Inferno Babies into psychopaths and ruthless killers. After 26 years in Limbo, but only 4 years on Earth, Noc and Ulysses were able to locate a traveling portal and return home, keeping the existence of the children to themselves. However, they never gave up their mission of taking control of Limbo and capturing Illyana Rasputin. They returned to a world where mutantkind had nearly been wiped out, and where most living mutants now resided on Utopia. Their commanding officer, General Combest, ordered them to stand-down. The unit still believed that Illyana was a significant threat and, after Project Purgatory kidnapped Pixie, the Inferno Babies revealed themselves when they killed General Combest and obliterated the entire battalion. The New Mutants arrived to rescue Pixie and the Inferno Babies defeated them. After Dr. Noc and General Ulysses took Illyana's Soulsword and Pixie's Souldagger, they extracted the Bloodstones and completed the Bloodstone Amulet to call forth the Elder Gods. They, along with members of Project Purgatory, tortured the New Mutants; Trista controlled Cypher, Bob used a smaller portion of himself to probe into Sunspot's nose, Face had blasted Magma unconscious, and Loca broke Mirage's arm and strapped Cannonball to explosives, while he watched Timothy and members of Project Purgatory brutally beat Mirage.; While attempting to transport the New Mutants to Limbo, to be used as sacrifices for the Elder Gods, Karma showed Face what Project Purgatory had done to him and he killed Timothy, Maw, several soldiers and freed Magik and Karma. Once they returned to Limbo, the Demons Three asked them to turn over the Bloodstone Amulet and General Ulysses had them beg for mercy, then killed. After releasing the Elder Gods, General Ulysses was killed attempting to control them and the group fought against a demon horde. While fighting, Loca was killed by Mirage, Trista ordered Cypher to learn a machine that Trista and the others didn't understand and he used it to magically erase her mouth, ending her influence over him, and Dr. Noc ordered a retreat. While fleeing with Dr. Noc, Scab was destroyed in the escape vehicles by Cannonball, seeking revenge for himself and his teammates.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Team formed by the Kingpin for the sole purpose of destroying Spider-Man.
+Reality: Earth-92131
+Notes: Most other versions of the team are called the "Sinister Six", but Fox Kids censors felt that the word "Sinister" sounded too menacing for Spider-Man (1994 animated series) (even though another Fox Kids children's cartoon at the time, X-Men: The Animated Series, included Mister Sinister as a villain).
+Trivia: If the series had continued for a few more episodes, the Insidious Six would have reformed.; }
+History:
+The Insidious Six was formed by the Kingpin, who broke Chameleon, Scorpion, Mysterio, Shocker, Rhino and Doctor Octopus out of prison, for the sole purpose of destroying Spider-Man. At the time, Spider-Man was suffering from a mutation disease which initially caused him to partially lose his powers, allowing the Six to easily overpower him in a battle. They unmasked him, but wrongly concluded that Peter Parker wasn't in fact Spider-Man because of his poor performance against them.; The Insidious Six's failure caused Silvermane to wage war on the Kingpin's criminal empire, but the Six stopped him. However, Spider-Man, having partially regained his powers, saved Silvermane (unaware of his criminal activities). The Six's defeat led to their disbandment.; Months later, the Kingpin rallied the Insidious Six once again, this time to help him acquire the keys of the Six American Warriors that activates the Doomsday Device. As Mysterio had been killed since their last battle, he was replaced by the Vulture. With the Kingpin participating in most of their missions and coordinating their actions, the Insidious Six succeeded. They managed to collect the keys, and they defeated Spider-Man and the American Six. However, as the Six unlocked the door to the Doomsday complex, Chameleon released a sleeping gas knocking out his teammates and the captured heroes, betraying them to the Red Skull, his step-father, as his allegiance belonged to him and not to the Kingpin. The Red Skull was freed from his prison (a vortex) by the Chameleon and Rheinholt Kragov, the Red Skull's son. Later, Captain America emerged from the vortex and, in the ensuing battle, a part of the complex collapsed along with the Kingpin's ambitions for world domination. The rest of the Six disbanded once they realized that there was no profit to be made.

+Base of operations: Formerly Transamerica Pyramid, San Francisco, California, New York City, New York, Earth-616; Sims Tower, Times Square, Manhattan, New York City, New York, Earth-3145; Loomworld, Earth-001
+Notes: While they preferentially hunt totemic avatars, Inheritors can also feed on normal animals, and humans.; The Inheritors appear to be unique in Multiverse, as they had no variants.; Inheritors are either unable to consume Symbiotes and those bonded to them, or have great difficulty doing so.
+History:
+===Origins===; The Inheritors were originally normal humans who were turned by the patriarch, Solus into totems of the Leech, the lowest of all Human/Animal Hybrids (beings that connect animals to humanity) in the Multiverse. Only able to parasite the powers of others, the Inheritors feed on the life forces of both totemic avatars as well as totemic Gods themselves. Eventually they specialized in hunting Spider-Totems to access the Web of Life and Destiny as they sought to defeat the spider deity of Earth-001, the Master Weaver. The clan mother and her offspring Bora, Verna, Brix, Daemos, Morlun, Jennix, and Karn attacked him at his home, but when Karn had his chance to strike, the Weaver revealed Karn found no pleasure in death and wished he could create and not destroy. Karn hesitated and his mother attacked the Weaver and was killed. While Karn was in shock, his father, Solus arrived and subjugated the Master Weaver with his siblings. Karn was confined to wear a mask to hide his shame and became an outcast. Seeing that the Weaver's power could be used, they used chains designed by Jennix to control the Master Weaver's power in order to travel between dimensions and hunt all Spider-Totems in the Multiverse.; ===Alliance with Goblin 2099===; The Inheritors were brought to Earth-TRN389 by Goblin. They made a deal where if they delivered the native Spider-Man to her, she would give them access to Earth-41940, home to the Spider-Men. When that world's Spider-Man arrived in Nueva York, he discovered that they didn't recognize him. Parker figured out that the Spider-Men were from the future relative to the Inheritors, having helped defeat them during the Totem War. With this knowledge, they were able to recuse O'Hara and use the Goblin's temporal emitters to send the Inheritors back to Earth-001.; ===The Totem War===; When the Inheritors managed to gather three spider-totems needed to perform a ritual, The Other, The Scion, and The Bride, the Spider-Army formed to oppose the Inheritors travelled to their base, Loomworld, to stop them.; In the end, the Spider-Army managed to overpower the Inheritors and stop the ritual which would've ended them all. The Inheritors were left in Earth-3145, a universe with a radioactive Earth, where they would die due to them being extremely vulnerable to radiation, and couldn't escape, because the Master Weaver they had enslaved and used to travel across the Multiverse had been killed. However, Spider-Man gave them the knowledge of a shelter in Sims Tower, where they could survive, but not pose a threat anymore.; ===Spider-Geddon===; The Web-Warriors would eventually send Spider-Bots to monitor them but they were destroyed. Meanwhile, the Superior Spider-Man combined Jennix's and the Jackal's technology to create clone bodies to where he could transfer his mind should his current body die. This would make Jennix use the technology of the Spider-Bots to hack the cloning tubes and create new clone bodies to them and make their triumphant return. After cloning their father's body and retrieving the crystal containing his soul, they managed to return him to life. In the end, Miles Morales, empowered by the Enigma Force, killed Solus with the Sword Vigor and the Spider-People used the Jackal's cloning tubes to create new baby bodies to the rest of the Inheritors, with no memory of their past, when they found out that Solus put the hunger in his children and it could be reversed. They were later adopted by Spider-Ma'am.; After the totemic wasp-goddess Shathra had been freed once more, she eventually corrupted Spider-Ma'am and killed all baby Inheritors, leaving Morlun the only Inheritor alive.

+Base of operations: Afterlife
+Transportation: Gordon used his teleportation abilities to transport the Inhumans to and from Afterlife.
+History:
+The Inhumans are the descendants of humans who had been the subjects of genetic experimentation conducted by the Kree in ancient times. A group of them came to live in a refuge they called "Afterlife." The true location of this site was only known to a select few Inhumans, but it was somewhere in East Asia. Here, the oldest and wisest of them decided which Inhumans would undergo Terrigenesis, a process that grants them superhuman abilities. Although typically led by a council of elders, by the early 21st Century Afterlife was run exclusively by Jiaying.; The Terrigen Mists gave Jiaying the ability to drain the life out of someone she came into physical contact with, thereby extending her own life. She used her longevity to usher several generations of Inhumans through Terrigenesis smoothly.; At some point in the mid-1980's, Jiaying fell in love with Cal Johnson, an American doctor working in China for Doctors Without Borders. The pair married, and not long after the birth of their daughter Daisy, Hydra agents kidnapped Jiaying and took her to Daniel Whitehall's laboratory in Austria. Jiaying was a prisoner of Whitehall's during World War II, and he used her as a test subject in his experiments with the Obelisk.; Whitehall dissected Jiaying in an attempt to uncover the secrets behind her longevity. He then had her organs transplanted into his own body to rejuvenate him, and disposed of the rest. Cal eventually found Jiaying's remains and took her back to Afterlife, where she was able to use her powers to almost make a full recovery. However, she was both physically and emotionally scarred by the ordeal, and took a more aggressive attitude when dealing with outsiders.; In 2015, two Inhumans happened to undergo Terrigenesis outside of Afterlife. One of them was Cal and Jiaying's lost daughter, now going by the name "Skye." The Inhuman Gordon, a teleporter, brought Skye and the other, Raina, to Afterlife for training. Afterlife was not the only party interested in them, however, as both S.H.I.E.L.D., which Skye had become an agent of, and Hydra, which Raina had briefly worked for, were interested in the pair for their own purposes. S.H.I.E.L.D. wanted to take a record of them, while Hydra wanted to study them as Whitehall had done. When Hydra captured the Inhuman Lincoln, Skye left Afterlife to help S.H.I.E.L.D. save him.; S.H.I.E.L.D. returned Lincoln and Skye to Afterlife with a party of agents intent on adding the rest of the Inhumans to the Gifted Index. Rather than give her people up, Jiaying killed S.H.I.E.L.D.'s emissary, Robert Gonzales, and made it look like he attacked her first.; The Inhumans believed they were now at war with S.H.I.E.L.D. Gordon quietly teleported a team of his people onto the aircraft carrier the Iliad, which held a Kree weapon designed to wipe out Inhumans in its cargo hold. The Inhumans captured the ship and sent out a distress signal to bring more S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to it. Jiaying planned to circulate the Terrigen Mists through the ship's air ducts when the agents arrived. The Mists were contaminated with Diviner metal, so it would kill anyone who didn't have Inhuman ancestry. Skye, who had since seen her mother's true ways, modified the signal to let S.H.I.E.L.D. know it was a trap. Only one team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents led by Director Phil Coulson himself boarded the ship. Alongside them was Cal, who by then realized Jiaying's methods were going to get their daughter killed. During the fight, S.H.I.E.L.D. killed Gordon, Lincoln turned on the Inhumans, and Cal killed Jiaying while she attempted to drain the life from Skye.; What happened to the Inhumans at Afterlife after the battle on the aircraft carrier is currently unknown.

+The Initiative was created in the aftermath of the Stamford Incident, which killed hundreds of people. This led to the passage of the Super-Hero Registration Act that forced every superhero to register with the government and receive proper training so the disaster in Stamford wasn't repeated. The Initiative was created in order to train and manage the registered heroes. The Initiative was led by Iron Man. However, many heroes found being forced to register unethical and organized a resistance called the Secret Avengers, which was led by Captain America.; One day, Captain America led his team on a mission to free captured unregistered superheroes being held in Prison 42 in the Negative Zone, believing them to be political prisoners. Iron Man learned of the jailbreak from spies within the Secret Avengers' ranks and organized his forces in an ambush, which he bolstered with S.H.I.E.L.D. troops and conscripted villains. However, the self-destruct system in the prison was activated; Black Panther blamed Iron Man's side while Maria Hill of S.H.I.E.L.D. blamed Panther. It would be learned years later that the Skrulls were responsible for the system's activation. Everyone on both sides of the conflict rushed to escape through the teleportation power of the hero Cloak, who dropped them all in midair in St. Louis.; Unfortunately, Cloak could not shut off his powers fast enough to block out the explosion, which caused a beam of explosive energy to strike the ground in St. Louis, setting off a series of explosions that toppled buildings, killed super heroes, and left millions dead. Each side blamed the other for the cataclysm and became even more divided. This left the door open for the Skrull Invasion and the reign of Norman Osborn. The Initiative was eventually dissolved as the Iron was created and reorganized into a system where every person with powers was conscripted in the name of safety.

As part of a major power play, Maniac took control of the top enforcers from Black Cat's Gang, including the Black Cat herself.; While tracking down the Mania symbiote, Spider-Man and Anti-Venom stumbled upon the Inklings. Using the remnants of her free will, Black Cat kissed Anti-Venom, destroying the piece of Maniac's symbiote that was controlling her. After the Black Cat fled, Spider-Man and Anti-Venom were captured by the Inklings. Spider-Man was successfully taken over and began a crime spree, hijacking delivery trucks carrying luxury goods in an effort to flush out Black Cat. Andi Benton, determined to retrieve her symbiote, saved Anti-Venom from being executed; and Venom and Black Cat freed Spider-Man from Maniac's control. However, Maniac was successful in infiltrating a gathering of the world's five largest organized crime syndicates and infected them with his symbiote, taking them over.; The heroes assaulted the cabin where the gathering was taking place, and used weaponry coated in Anti-Venom to free the many of the Inklings from Maniac's control. The Inklings were finally defeated after Andi detonated the Anti-Venom bullets that Venom was holding, showering Maniac's henchmen with the formula to free them from his control. Maniac subsequently had the surviving pieces of the Mania symbiote return to him and reabsorbed them.

+Intruders (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: Intruders (Earth-616)
+Full name: Intruders
+First appearance: Silver Sable and the Wild Pack Vol 1 16
+Created by: Greg Wright; Steven Butler
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Symkarian Embassy, Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States of America; previously also Castle Sable, Symkaria
+Notes: The Intruders made their first appearance as a team in Silver Sable and the Wild Pack Vol 1 15 (in their Kentucky mission, which was unambiguously identified as the Intruders' first mission in Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z Vol 1 10, Silver Sable's profile; All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z: Update Vol 1 3 and Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z Vol 1 5, Intruders' profile; and Avengers Assemble Vol 1 1, Man-Eater's profile). The team was only given a name in the following issue, Silver Sable and the Wild Pack Vol 1 16. The team's profile in both All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z: Update #3 and Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z #5 list Silver Sable and the Wild Pack #16 as the team's first appearance.; The text in the Intruders' profile in All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z: Update Vol 1 3 is repeated almost verbatim in Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z Vol 1 5, the only difference being that the second book adds three lines on the activities of some Intruders after the team dissolution and the passage of the SHRA, and one note about how the Fin from the Intruders is not to be confused with Fin, a World War II superhero.; Although Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z Vol 1 10 mentions how the Sandman's leadership was successful in the mission against the Bio-Genes, the battle with the Bio-Genes was interrupted by the sudden arrival of Hydra, and that mission was unconclusive, not successful.; The Sandman's profile in Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z Vol 1 10 say that, when the Genesis Coalition captured Silver Sable, the Sandman defied her orders to go rescue her with the Intruders, fighting along System Crash in the process. In Silver Sable and the Wild Pack Vol 1 25, we see that the Sandman and the Intruders do consider challenging Sable's orders and rescue her, but the Sandman in particular decides to obey the orders and travel to Bosnia instead of going to rescue Sable. They did cooperate with System Crash in Bosnia, thou.; Civil War: Battle Damage Report Vol 1 1 says that Lightbright served with the Intruders until Silver Sable decided to establish her headquarters in Symkaria. This happened in Silver Sable and the Wild Pack Vol 1 30. However, Lightbright was still serving in the Intruders later in Silver Sable and the Wild Pack Vol 1 34 for the Antarctica mission. Civil War: Battle Damage Report is apparently wrong.
+History:
+===Origin===; Silver Sable, leader of the international mercenary operation Wild Pack, had founded an elite mercenary team made of people with superpowers, the Outlaws, and later used superhumans within the Wild Pack directly. Shortly after disbanding the Outlaws and just after an encounter with Priapus while searching for the Vatsayana's Tryst, Sable decided to create a new team of superhuman operatives, which would become known as the Intruders.; Sable recruited the Sandman, a former supervillain and former member of the Outlaws, to be the Intruders' field commander after the Sandman had briefly resigned to work with competitor mercenary team Next Wave, only to return soon afterward. The Sandman, appreciative of Sable's vote of confidence on him, decided to go the extra mile and prove himself in the job, even if he was unsure of his skills as a leader. When he had left Next Wave, the Sandman had resigned along fellow mercenary the Fin, an enigmatic bruiser with superhuman strength who had already impressed Sable in a previous encounter. Sable's other recruits for the Intruders included Paladin, a superhuman, well-trained mercenary who had already worked with Sable, both in the Outlaws and otherwise; and the Man-Eater, a human-tiger hybrid merge of an archeologist and a tiger, both victims of terrorist organization Genesis Coalition experiments, who had been rescued by the Wild Pack in a previous operation. The Man-Eater was the last member to join the original Intruders, and had been training with the Pack since his rescue.; ===First missions===; For their first mission, the Intruders were sent to Kentucky tracking down the nihilistic criminal Viper, which Sable had been hired to capture; but at that time Viper resorted to many decoy doppelgangers called Pit-Vipers. The Intruders chased and captured a fake Viper and her followers in the forest, and the Sandman reported to Sable that they had succeeded in capturing an imposter and obtained information that brought them closer to the real one. Paladin participated actively in the mission but failed to impress his associates.; Sable was later hired by the U.S. government to ensure that a shipment of food and medicine reached its destination in Somalia, helping a population devastated by the war. Sable took the Wild Pack and the Intruders to Somalia to protect the convoys, hoping to use the assignment as a training mission for the Intruders, who had just received their name. When the convoys were threatened by armed rebels demanding the delivery of supplies and roads, Sable decided to let the Intruders handle it, so she could see them in action. Although the Man-Eater and Paladin sympathized with the motivations of the attackers, who acted out of necessity, the Intruders still defeated twenty-three enemies in forty-six seconds, with no casualties. Paladin then aided in relief efforts, until the Wild Pack received a signal from a U.S. Marine compound under attack ten miles from Mogadishu, and Sable ordered the Pack and Intruders to go help. They discovered that the attackers were the Bio-Genes, Somalian mutants opposed to foreign interference in their country. Led by the Sandman, the Intruders participated in the battle against the Bio-Genes, but the combat was interrupted by the arrival of forces from the terrorist organization Hydra who intended conquer Somalia in the name of the southern warlords. During the three-way combat, Wild Pack's Battlestar saved Bio-Genes' Lightbright's life, after which he invited her to join them; while the leader of the Bio-Genes, Leecher, briefly controlled the Fin and the Man-Eater's emotions before being defeated himself by Sable. Sable then convinced the Bio-Genes to join her against Hydra. Sable entered the Hydra mothership and battled their commander, Baron Strucker, but she only won because the Fin and the Sandman followed and helped her. With additional help from S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra was expelled from Somalia. Battlestar then offered Lightbright to join his team on a more permanent basis.; On some occasions, individual Intruders carried out solo missions. The Man-Eater was sent to South America to track down two terrorists; but when he entered their lair, they caused an explosion to cover their own escape through the jungle and to impair the scent-tracking capabilities of their pursuer. Still affected by his powers and about to succumb to savagery, the Man-Eater managed to capture one of the terrorists alive, although he killed the other one and threw him to the piranhas, and for a moment He considered devouring his prisoner; however, out of respect for the Intruders, the Man-Eater clung to his human ethics.; On another solo mission and as part of the Intruders, Paladin tracked down Jonathan Lee, an accountant for Silver Sable International who had embezzled a fortune and escaped. This operation took Paladin to Canada and required several weeks of dedicated effort until Paladin captured Lee.; Sable also had the Sandman occasionally participate in Wild Pack missions instead of leading the Intruders full-time; one such mission took the Sandman and the Pack to San Francisco to track down Venom but they failed to capture him and agreed to leave him alone. Meanwhile, Lightbright traveled to the Symkarian Embassy of New York City to speak with the Wild Pack administration about her membership; she also began a romance with Battlestar. After the mission in San Francisco, the Sandman became closer with the Fin. Eventually and following these events, Lightbright also joined the Intruders.; The Wild Pack and the Intruders were next summoned to Beverly Hills, where a coalition of street gangs led by Latisha Arnold had driven the city's wealthy inhabitants from their homes. Following Sable's specifications, the Sandman ordered the Intruders not to kill the gang members, although the Fin disliked the idea because the gang members were killing police officers, and the Man-Eater, who had known poverty, was aghast at the defeatist and suicidal attitude of those boys. Lightbright attempted to use her powers not to attack, but to convince the criminals to abandon their methods; yet she was unable to do so and adopted a more aggressive attitude. When the Pack and the Intruders beat the gangs, crimelord Justin Hammer, secretly bankrolling the operation, sent a cadre of superhuman enforcers as reinforcement. The Intruders went to help the Pack in a police precinct that Arnold had made into a stronghold, and there supervillain Blizzard used his cold powers to freeze the Man-Eater, although he was unable to stop the Fin with such an attack. The Fin also beat up the leader of the supervillains, Beetle. Defeated, the villains fled, and Sable defeated Arnold and his people. The Sandman's leadership over the Intruders had once been successful, and by then the Sandman began to feel attracted to Sable.; ===Genesis Coalition===; After the operation in Beverly Hills, Paladin turned Lee in, also proving that crimelord Foreigner had been behind Lee's actions, and rejoined the other Intruders. By then, Sable was being harassed again by the Genesis Coalition. When Sable discovered where the Coalition's secret lair was, she set out there with the Wild Pack in a Stealthcraft, and ordered the Intruders to follow her there; however, the Intruders had an unspecified problem with the Man-Eater that delayed their takeoff by 47 minutes, as reported by the Sandman. By the time the Intruders were en route in a second Stealthcraft piloted by the Fin, Sable had made important discoveries in the lair of the Coalition and, as part of a convoluted plan, had allowed the Coalition to imprison her and the Pack. Sable transmitted orders in code, and Pack member Amy Chen contacted the Intruders to give them new orders: The Intruders were to set course for Bosnia to confront the Coalition invading forces there; and under no circumstances should they try to rescue the Pack. Lightbright, Paladin, and the Sandman worried about the Pack, admitting the possibility of the Coalition killing them, but the Sandman decided to obey Sable's orders.; Upon arriving at the Bosnian battlefield, the Intruders observed that S.H.I.E.L.D. had the situation under control in the eastern sector, while in the western sector, several miles away, the activity was greater and the Intruders would have more enemies to fight. There Paladin, Lightbright and the other Intruders faced Coalition agents who were posing as Hydra agents so that Hydra would be blamed for their actions; and to their surprise, the Intruders found themselves allied with real Hydra agents led by the Baron Strucker, including System Crash, because Hydra had taken issue with the Coalition impersonating them in such a crude attack on Bosnia. When Sable escaped from the Coalition and contacted the Intruders by radio, the Sandman told her that they had made an unusual alliance with Hydra; and Sable decided to approve it since they had to focus on the Coalition: If Hydra did not attack the Intruders or civilian targets, Sable ordered, the Intruders must let them escape. Also during that battle, the Man-Eater demonstrated his animalistic brutality by killing and skinning one of the enemies, in a way that even Paladin found brutal.; The participation of the Intruders in the battle ruined the insane plan of Fritz Sablinov, one of the leaders of the Coalition, which could have ended the Coalition and Hydra, but at a very high cost in innocent lives. Sablinova died in that battle, knowing that the Coalition forces had been defeated in Bosnia. As for Hydra, one of Strucker's agents, Technospike, proposed staying in Bosnia longer to finish off the Intruders; but Strucker ordered an immediate retreat before S.H.I.E.L.D. reach that area, since his forces could not defeat the Intruders and S.H.I.E.L.D. at the same time. The Coalition was completely destroyed that day.; ===Later activities===; Soon afterward, the Sandman former teammate in the supervillain team Frightful Four, the Trapster, on parole, convinced the Sandman that he wanted to reform and join the Wild Pack. Sable agreed to test the Trapster under the supervision of the Sandman. When the Sandman discovered that the Trapster had not truly reformed and was attempting to manipulate the Sandman, the Sandman He beat the Trapster as punishment, and returned him to prison.; The Man-Eater suffered a chemical imbalance in his brain that left his human mind in the background, giving control of his body to the tiger's instinctive mind. The Man-Eater escaped from the Embassy, behaving terrifyingly in Manhattan for an hour. Silver Sable's staff member Raul Quentino in communications attempted notify the Pack, but everyone was busy and no one picked up their calls. The rampaging creature scared several people, causing them to notify the NYPD superhuman strike force Code: Blue to stop the Man-Eater, after which Quentino managed to warn Silver Sable and Battlestar, who joined the chase; Quentino was later able to also warn the Man-Eater's companions, the Fin and the Sandman, who were sent as reinforcement. After having attacked a mugger in Central Park, the Man-Eater was attacked in turn by Code: Blue, but he managed to escape, and instinctively went to Central Park Zoo, attracted by the smell of a tigress in heat. Code: Blue recognized the insignia on the Man-Eater's belt, which linked him to Silver Sable agents. Sable and Battlestar ran into Code: Blue at the zoo, with Sable protesting when the police authorized the use of lethal force. Battlestar insisted on helping the Man-Eater, although the Man-Eater felt that he was losing or had already lost his human part. With the help of the Sandman and the Fin, Sable and Battlestar reached the bear pit without being able to be followed by the police, and there Sable managed to incapacitate the Man-Eater with a taser-rod, and took him to the Symkarian Embassy, threatening Code: Blue with a diplomatic incident if they prevented him from dealing with his own employee. In the Following days, Quentino and Dr. Phil Newkirk performed extensive tests on the Man-Eater to diagnose the nature of the problem and tried to control it, but they were not able to find a cure, which saddened the Man-Eater since he would have to live with memories that he knew were not his.; When Amy Chen left the Pack to infiltrate her former female assassin guild, the Sandman collaborated with Chen to pretend she was murdering a maggioso (by impersonating the victim himself, and apprehending the real criminal for the bounty on his head in the process) because the Sandman was friendly with Chen and the other Pack members. The Sandman also collaborated with the Pack on a mission in Mexico stopping graverobbers and briefly traveling through time.; Silver Sable was then arrested and sent to prison due to a CIA conspiracy against her. The Intruders were present in a meeting at the Embassy in which one of the Pack's managers, Mortimer, informed them of what had happened and Sable's orders: Sable asked that no one try to rescue her and that her people travel to Symkaria, lest the authorities may find reasons to arrest them too. The Sandman refused because he owed too much to Sable, but the topic was a matter of discussion. Several members of the Pack and the Intruders tried to move their contacts in favor of Sable, but she was finally freed by a move made by Mortimer; the charges were dropped but Sable became persona non grata in the U.S. She decided to relocate her international operations to Symkaria, and left the Sandman in charge of the Intruders, with the team based in the Symkarian Embassy of New York. The Sandman, who had a crush on Sable, followed her on a last solo mission in Japan, after which Sable gathered the Pack and the Intruders in Castle Sable to notify them that she retired from active duty. Thou personally devastated, the Sandman continued leading the Intruders. With the team having a reputation, they had a full schedule of missions in the following times.; In the last known mission of the Intruders, they took a Stealthcraft to try and retrieve a mysterious alien relic in Antarctica. Paladin He observed the Sandman's sub-par mood and proposed to take the lead temporarily if the Sandman did not feel capable, to which the Sandman responded with a mocking threat. It is unknown if his mission was successful or not.; ===Dissolution and subsequent activities===; The team may have disbanded after the villain Wizard manipulated the Sandman's mind and caused his criminal personality to take control, causing the Sandman to allied again with the Wizard and the Trapster. The Sandman then attempted to steal an alien artifact, but was defeated by the Wild Pack, who were protecting the same loot.; The Man-Eater served on the Intruders until the team disbanded. Paladin returned to solo mercenary work. Lightbright was one of the few mutants to keep their mutant powers after M-Day. Following the passage of the Super-human Registration Act, Lightbright opposed registration but was arrested with other rebels and sent to Prison 42. The Man-Eater and the Fin registered. The Man-Eater was immediately listed as a potential recruit for the Initiative while the Fin was not, but later both were assigned to Vermont's Initiative team, the Garrison.

+History:
+The Iron Avengers were robot duplicates of the Avengers created by Tony Stark. Following the deaths of the real Avengers at the hands of the Absorbing Man, Tony created the Iron Avengers in their likeness to honor their memories and to carry on the fight. The Iron Avengers were given the personalities of the originals and were led by the sole surviving Avenger, the android Vision.; Following Tony Stark's alliance with President Osborn, formerly the villain known as the Green Goblin, the Iron Avengers were used at his discretion. They were primarily deployed to combat the Hydra, purging the streets of New York City. The Iron Avengers would team-up with former Avengers Captain America and Thor, fighting against the Hydra and Storm Giants respectively.; When the Skull marched into New York at the head of a mind-controlled army of superhumans, the Iron Avengers were the first line of defense for President Osborn's headquarters. When the Skull realized he couldn't take control of the Iron Avengers he had his army destroy them. Their defeat would sow the seeds of the Skull's eventual fall however, as his enemies realized he could not control mindless objects like robots. Before his death at the hands of the Celestials, Tony Stark gave Vision the schematics for the Iron Avengers, asking him to rebuild them.; Following the defeat of the Skull and Tony Stark's death, King Britain decreed that the Iron Avengers to be rebuilt. Over the next three years he worked with the Vision and his army of genetically engineered Union Jacks to build an army of Iron Avengers to defend England and the world. While maintaining the same abilities of the originals, these Iron Avengers appeared to lack the personalities of the original Avengers.; The Iron Avengers were placed under the command of the Black Knight (son of the late Inhuman King Black Bolt) who was raised by King Britain. The Iron Avengers played a part in defending Buckingham Palace from an attack made by the Tong of Creel who sought to collect King Britain's piece of the Absorbing Man, but were unable to stop the Tong from claiming the piece.; The Iron Avengers were later sent with the Black Knight to investigate the Human Torch in the Savage Land that appeared to have gone out due to neglect. There Black Bolt, Iron Maiden, and Jade Dragon were captured by Toad, who had switched abilities with Magneto following the world's depolarization. The Toad used his newfound magnetic powers to take control of the Iron Avengers and used them to attack the heroes. However, King Britain had constructed an entire fleet of Iron Avengers, whom the Black Knight called in for assistance.; With the aid of Cable, the telepathic mutant now trapped beneath Sentinel City, Iron Maiden was able to stabilize the amount of Vibranium in the area to reverse the power switch between Magneto and Toad. Upon regaining his powers Magneto repaired all the damage caused to Sentinel City and the Iron Avengers and freed them from the Toads control. When a reassembled Absorbing Man attacked New York, the Iron Avengers arrived to help stop him. Creel was eventually defeated when the Iron Maiden convinced him to sacrifice himself to save the Earth.; With the defeat of Creel, and the world entering a time of relative peace, King Britain allowed the Iron Maiden to take a sizeable number of Iron Avengers on an expedition into space, hoping to rescue the Eternals.

+History:
+After his return, Ultimo defeated Iron Man in combat (who at the time was using a remotelly-controlled armor). Stark was left in comatose state.; The robot went on a rampage while heading to Futura, and War Machine called together Happy Hogan, Eddie March, Bethany Cabe, Mike O'Brien, and Carl Walker in order to propose to them to use old Iron Man armors in order to defeat Ultimo. With the help of Abe Zimmer, the group donned the armors and departed to fight Ultimo.; When the team caught up with Ultimo, they deployed almost their entire arsenal, and the robot soon fell to the ground. But it recovered, and continued the battle, taking down Carl and Eddie. The four remaining members continued the battle until Mike and Happy collided with each other. War Machine ordered Happy to get Carl and Eddie to a hospital and Mike and Bethany to alert Futura of Ultimo's arrival and suggest the city to start evacuating. Bethany decided to stay with Rhodes and continue slowing Ultimo down.; The arrival of Tony Stark, equipped with a brand-new armor, turned the tide of the battle, as after ordering Bethany to get clear, he faced Ultimo alone and defeated him quickly.

+History:
+The Iron Legion was formed by Iron Man's armor suits being controlled by J.A.R.V.I.S. and led by Stark himself.; The Iron Legion was summoned by Stark under the "House Party" protocol in order to help him battle the Extremis-enhanced soldiers assisting in Aldrich Killian's plot. Some suits were destroyed by Extremis soldiers, others by Killian, and the suits that survived the battle were subsequently destroyed by Stark's "Clean Slate Protocol," as Stark's way to show Pepper Potts that his suits were no longer his obsession nor his main priority.; Following the dissolution of S.H.I.E.L.D., Stark decided to build a second Iron Legion to help ensure world security. Such robots were employed to assist the Avengers in Sokovia as the heroes tried recovering Loki's Scepter from Hydra. Once the artificial intelligence known as Ultron emerged from Stark's research on the scepter at Stark Tower, he decided to get a physical body for itself and took over the Iron Legion robots. The robots attacked the Avengers' celebration at the tower while one of the units took the scepter away to Sokovia. The robots provided the basis for Ultron's subsequent bodies.

+History:
+The past history of the Invaders of Earth-TRN558 mirrors that of their counterparts on Earth-616. Until early 1942 when a cylinder of Vibranium was sent back in time from the modern era of Earth-616, creating a temporal divergence when the Nazis gained the rare metal and began using it to boost up production of their V-2 Rockets. The Invaders were imposed upon by Earth-616's Fantastic Four who came back in time to recover the cylinder. Both groups briefly clashed, but agreed upon working together when they stopped fighting long enough to learn what was going on.; Both teams stormed Castle Cherbelle in Nazi occupied France. During the clash, Captain America doused his foe Baron Zemo in Adhesive X. The two groups succeeded in destroying the Nazi's V-2 Rockets by blowing up Castle Cherbelle. After the castle's destruction and the Vibranium was recovered, the Fantastic Four returned to their own era.

Seeing this as their chance to finally free themselves from the Collector, Iron Man and the Captain America from World War II decided to act and attack the Collector. However, Iron Man wanted to seize control over the ISO-Sphere, thus ending the Contest of Champions once and for all, and use it to help people whereas Captain America only wanted to defeat the Collector and escape Battlerealm. Eventually, their disagreement became an open conflict, a Cosmic Civil War which polarized legions of Champions behind the opposite sides.; ===Cosmic Civil War: Endgame===; As many other times before, the Cosmic Civil War led Iron Man and Captain America to fight each other while also fighting against the Collector, who even in his weakened state was able to defeat them and encase them into ISO-8 Crystals again. After the battle, the Collector would always replace the factions' leaders by more fierce counterparts to keep the Cosmic Civil War going. Upon learning this, Doctor Strange assembled a team of his own, composed of the defected members of both Iron and Blue Factions, to try to find the legendary Civil Warrior to end the war.; The Iron Faction disbanded when the Collector himself put an end to the Cosmic Civil War after the Civil Warrior defeated the leaders of both factions.

+History:
+Hoping to solve the world's problems, Gregory Knox created cyborg clones of history's greatest minds. However, while creating the clone of Thomas Edison, the DNA sample was contaminated by Knox's pet cockatiel, turning the clone into a human-bird hybrid. However, Knox discovered that bird DNA helped stabilize the cloning process, prompting him replicate the same process with the DNA of Leonardo da Vinci, Philo Farnsworth, Marie Curie, and Nikola Tesla.; During the events of Dark Web, the Edison clone discovered the existence of the other bird clones from Knox before killing him. He recruited the clones to help him in his revenge against his nemesis Ms. Marvel as part of a team named after himself, called the Inventors. When the Inventors confronted Ms. Marvel, she was able to fight them off with help from Spider-Man and Bruno Carrelli. Edison was killed by an EMP while the other Inventors fled.; Inspired by the Alfred Hitchcock film The Birds, the Inventors hatched their next plan to combat climate change by breeding a new flock of killer birds to destroy humanity. After they sabotaged power lines and raiding farm supplies, Ms. Marvel correctly suspected them to be behind something and investigated their whereabouts with Carrelli, who were both joined by Multitude. Multitude tracked the Inventors' hideout and confronted them at their aviary alone. The Inventors revealed their plans and attempted to sway Multitude to their side, due to him being a robot like them, but Multitude refused to as Ms. Marvel joined him. When the Inventors hatched their eggs, Multitude created a projection of Fin Fang Foom to scare the hatchlings into flying away before they could fully mature. Although their plans were thwarted, the Inventors managed to escape.

+Trivia: In Thunderbolts Vol 1 23 we see the line up of the Jury as Sentry, Bomblast, Firearm, Ramshot and Wysper with Screech no longer on the team. But when we see them unmasked Firearm, who is black is depicted as looking as blonde and white like Maxwell Taylor aka Screech. Presumably this is an art error rather than an indication that Maxwell Taylor is now Firearm.
+History:
+During a Vault breakout, Orwell Taylor's son Hugh was killed by Venom. The Vault itself was heavily damaged by the U-Foes several years later.; Taylor and his other son, Max, decided to seek revenge. A number of other disgruntled Guardsmen joined them as the Jury. They sought to "try" villains for their crimes, beginning with Venom. However, the anti-hero escaped due to the intervention of Roland Treece. Later the Jury kidnapped Spider-Man and tried him for bringing the Venom symbiote to earth. Again, the Jury was defeated.; Later Orwell began to work with the Life Foundation and the Jury became more or less flunkies.; After parting ways with Orwell, his eldest son Max, aka Screech, reformed the Jury and tried to make it more representative of an American court of law. Max chose to give up his Screech costume and become the Jury's defense attorney. A mysterious man known as Gavel was the judge for the Jury's trials. Olivia Lentz, a mysterious woman with a history in dealing with symbiotes was the prosecutor. To replace Screech the team recruited former Guardsman Jenny Stewart whose husband was murdered by the second Tarantula during a prison riot. Jenny was given the codename Wysper. She killed Tarantula in a deathmatch and was officially made a member.; Sometime later the Jury lost their support staff and funding. They were later hired by industrialist Edwin Cord, a recurring enemy of Iron Man's. US Agent was hired to be the team's field leader.; After learning that Abner Jenkins had been arrested, Cord decided to apprehend the Thunderbolts. They were unsuccessful. The Jury was later prohibited from attacking Graviton after his destruction of the Redeemers. The Jury and the Thunderbolts reluctantly ended up working together to defeat the Secret Empire.

+History:
+Led by Super Soldier and Dark Claw. Doctor Strangefate brought the original Judgment League Avengers roster together to stop an undisclosed enemy (which may have been the Skulk), the original team consisted of Canary, Angelhawk, Iron Lantern, and the Mariner. The five members didn't stay together for long, as Doctor Strangefate left the team early on.; Goliath and Myx joined the team shortly thereafter, though Myx only stayed until the end of the issue, leaving after realizing his intolerance of superheroes. Sometime later, Captain Marvel also joined the team, and Iron Lantern may have left the team during that period of time. The team discovered and thawed out the frozen body of Super-Soldier, who promptly joined the JLA.; Apollo, Firebird, Mercury, Runaway, Wraith, and Nightcreeper were all metamutants, also called mutants, who became the newest members of the JLA. The metamutants and non-metamutants eventually discovered that their views on certain things varied, and their relationships were tested when Will Magnus framed the Mariner, who was also a metamutant, for the destruction of a number of Roxxon oil tankers. The Mariner goes on the run, and when S.H.I.E.L.D. failed to capture him, the JLA was asked to capture him. They succeeded, and this was the last straw for the New Blood members of the JLA.; With the assistance of the mysterious Mister X, the New Blood freed the Mariner from where he was being held. Taking the name of JLX, the New Blood members and the Mariner fought an epic battle against the current members of the Judgement League Avengers, which at the time consisted of Super-Soldier, Dark Claw, Captain Marvel, Angelhawk, Goliath, Canary, and Hawkeye. The battle was stopped when Angelhawk faked an injury, as Angelhawk himself was secretly a metamutant. Angelhawk later ended up joining the JLX.

+History:
+The Jack O'Lanterns were a group of mercenaries employed by Foreigner via one of the established Jack O'Lanterns, presumably Steve Levins. Unbeknownst to Levins, the four additional Jacks were sleeper agents working for the Finisher. They fought against Spider-Man and Teresa when they tried to capture Chameleon, who was selling the Infinity Formula to the Foreigner.; The Foreigner later deployed the Jack O'Lanterns when he cornered Chance into accepting a bet to attempt to steal a web-shooter off Spider-Man. Since succeeding would make the Foreigner cover all the debts of the wagers of his casino, but he had been swindled of his money by Chance, Chance tried to fail on purpose. However, the Jack O'Lantern's intervention allowed him to fluke the challenge when one of the Jacks sliced a web-shooter off Spider-Man's wrist and it fell on Chance's hands. Afterward, Chance and the Foreigner became partners.; After Chance pressured one of his indebted patrons, college student and inventor Jamie Tolentino, into stealing a device called the Catalyst to power his own invention, a future-predicting artifact named the Clairvoyant, the Jack O'Lanterns revealed themselves as double agents and attempted to steal both devices on behalf of the Finisher. Levins helped contain the Jacks' rampage, fighting his namesakes.

+Other aliases: L.A.'s First Family of Justice
+First appearance: Runaways Vol 5 26
+Created by: Rainbow Rowell; Andres Genolet
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Team assembled by Doc Justice to protect Los Angeles and southern California
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Justice House, Los Angeles, California
+Equipment: J-Team Costumes
+Transportation: Justice-UV
+Trivia: All five Princesses Justice were blond and three of them were married to Doc Justice, one of them being the first Princess Justice.
+History:
+The J-Team was a group of powerless vigilantes local to Los Angeles funded in the 1970s by Justice when he debuted as a super hero at age sixteen. The roster was rounded out by Princess Justice, Mr. Swift, Little J and Marty. In the early days, the J-Tem was funded by Justice's family through their chain of steakhouses.; Justice and Princess Justice eventually married and they had a child named Matthew. Tragedy struck shortly afterwards with the death of Princess Justice on a mission. Justice focused full-time on crime-fighting, but the remaining members of the J-Team retired after Mr. Swift died, resulting in the team's disbandment.; Almost a decade later, Justice, having adopted the identity of "Doc Justice," reformed the J-Team as a crime-fighting school. Doc Justice and his sidekick Kid Justice were joined by Blue-J, the new Princess Justice, and an unidentified fifth member.; The roster of the team kept changing throughout the years due to the death of their members, in some instances with new heroes stepping up and taking on the mantle of dead predecessors. The secret behind the J-Team's high mortality rate was due to Doc Justice routinely orchestrating the death of his protégés to raise his own profile as part of the sensationalization of his super hero life, believing that his mediatic image and the fortune that came with it helped him protect Los Angeles.; At one point in time, the J-Team branched into the J-Squad, and in the 1990s, Doc Justice led the unmemorable team named Justice for All. When Matthew was a teenager, he begged his father to take him on as the second Kid Justice, and he eventually became involved in Doc Justice's schemes to kill his teammates. Matthew's contemporaries were the third Princess Justice, SPF, and Trench. When Doc Justice disappeared for roughly a year, he was secretly replaced by the then-current Princess Justice. During a staged mission called "Operation: Clear Slate," Doc Justice buried Matthew's super heroic alter-ego, and he started running Mission Control for his father. In the mid-2000s, the J-Team disbanded after another tragedy.; Oportunity arose for Doc Justice to reform the J-Team when the group of teenage heroes known as the Runaways sought his help after being forced out of their underground hideout by a public drainage work. Victor Mancha was a big fan of the J-Team, and offered to assist Doc Justice in a mission. The rest of the Runaways followed suit, donning the costumes of past members of the J-Team as well. After this initial mission, the Runaways were consolidated as a new J-Team. Victor became Kid Justice, Chase Stein donned BumpStock's costume as "Gun Arm," Nico Minoru became The Gloom, Molly Hayes became Blue-J, Karolina Dean became Princess Justice. and Gib became Old God. Only Gert Yorkes was left behind, in part for her lack of combat ability and because Doc Justice didn't see her physique suitable for the media. During missions, she stayed behind with Matthew at Mission Control.; This new J-Team enjoyed a burst in popularity, and they continued working with and being trained by Doc Justice for weeks. However, after failing to secure a contract for a TV reality show, Doc Justice decided to kill off Karolina Dean for an attention bump. He led the J-Team into a trap for Karolina, pitching her against former J-Team member SPF, who possessed the ability to absorb solar energy. Gert had become increasingly suspicious of the J-Team's high mortality rate, and eventually snooped through Matthew's computer, where she discovered the truth behind it. She rushed with her pet dinosaur Old Lace to intercept the J-Team's mission. Matthew tried to stop her, but she convinced him to help her.; Gert and Matthew managed to barely stop Ashley from killing Karolina, and Doc Justice fended himself against the rest of the Runaways. When he was holding Gert at gunpoint, Victor Mancha arrived and immobilized Doc Justice long enough for Old Lace to sink her teeth on him, ending his life. Matthew tended to SPF while the Runaways left the scene.

They continued on foot, following a trail of Frost Giant blood to Thor, who had become submerged in warrior's madness.

When Raymond Warren and Seymour Krepps were sent to inspect the lab, Miles awakened the creature to create a distraction so he could kill and replace his older brother, intending to continue his research under Krepps' nose. The Jackal-Hulk subsequently went on a rampage on the campus, catching the attention of two Spider-Men (Peter Parker and Miles Morales). The duo worked together and subdued the Jackal, with it being taken to the Raft by the police soon afterwards.; The second Jackal-Hulk was created for the Jackal by K.N.A.I.V.E., the core artificial intelligence of the fantasy-fulfilling program called Arcadium.

+Full name: Knights of Pendragon
+First appearance: Knights of Pendragon Vol 2 10
+Created by: Dan Abnett; John Tomlinson; Gary Erskine
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The Knights of Pendragon were formed when the Pendragon Spirit once again awakened in the modern era, calling mortal hosts across Britain to embody the ideals of Camelot. Guided by the Green Knight, they united as spiritual heirs of the Round Table to protect Britain and the natural world from the corrupting forces of the Bane.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: The Green Chapel, Avalon; Formerly:; Camelaird Farm, Wiltshire
+Equipment: The later generation of Pendragons discovered enchanted armor within the Green Chapel. Each suit adapted itself to its bearer's needs and personality, reshaping to provide strength, durability, or flight as required. The armor also manifested spectral interfaces ghostly "computer presences" that offered tactical advice, environmental analysis, and guidance from past Pendragon spirits. In battle, the armor could resist conventional weaponry, absorb energies, and allow the Pendragons to channel their spiritual powers more efficiently.
+Weapons: Most Pendragons relied on their bonded spirit for empowerment rather than conventional arms. Nevertheless, their arsenal included: the Caliburn, the Sword of the Dawn drawn by Adam Crown; Albion's blessed blade and shield; Union Jack's enchanted armor and knife amplified by Lancelot's spirit; and energy-charging gauntlets or lances formed by the Green Chapel armor. In addition, Pendragons could manifest spiritual constructs and elemental blasts linked to their legendary archetypes.
+Transportation: Though not their primary means of travel, the Pendragons occasionally employed mystic and technological conveyances stored in the Green Chapel. These included enchanted steeds, spectral vessels, and armored craft equipped with weaponry. Some of these vehicles possessed transdimensional capability, enabling passage through time or into other realms of Avalon.
+History:
+===Origins===; The Pendragon Spirit has existed since the time of Camelot, rising whenever Britain faced grave peril. Each host carried echoes of earlier champions, binding them to figures of the Round Table such as King Arthur, Lancelot, Gawain, and Guinevere. Guided by the Green Knight, the Pendragons stood in eternal defiance of the Bane, parasitic entities of cruelty and corruption who served the Red Lord.The Bane twisted mortal hosts toward destruction, while the Green Knight called new Pendragons to resist whenever their influence threatened the world.; ===12th century===; Robin Hood, Little John, and the rest of the Merry Men were each chosen by the Pendragon Spirit, their rebellion against the Sheriff of Nottingham and corrupt crown officials marking them as champions of the Green Knight.; ===World War I===; In the twentieth century, Peter Hunter became the patriotic hero Albion during World War I, battling Bane-possessed German forces and occult societies across Europe. Though he returned to life as a teacher, his bond to the spirit endured.; ===Awakening of the Green Knight===; Modern exploitation of the Earth reawakened the Green Knight's wrath. Ecological criminals such as whaler Thor Karlsen, agribusiness mogul Sir Hugh Beaumont, and corporate fast food chain Tastee Burger were struck down by supernatural punishments, heralding the return of new Pendragons. Former inspector Dai Thomas was chosen as Gawain's vessel, receiving visions of mass slaughter and ecological abuse. His investigations uncovered pesticide poisoning in Kent, poachers allied with the mercenary Jan Van Ocken in Kenya, smugglers trafficking exotic animals in Florida (where an oil-spawned elemental creature rose), and drug-runners in Belize led by the brutal soldier Dolph. Thomas' struggle drew in allies: journalist Kate McClellan and Astra TV, novelist Ben Gallagher whose Holy Grail-obsession linked him to dolphins and marine life, the vigilante Union Jack, and Hunter, reawakened as Albion. McClellan herself inherited Guinevere's mantle, while her son Cam McClellan manifested uncontrolled Pendragon energy and was captured by Omni's director Francesca Grace, secretly a Bane Queen.; ===The Red Lord===; Grace and Omni Corporation attempted to resurrect the Red Lord in Joselito, Spain, deceiving Iron Man into aiding their dig. The Pendragons, alongside Captain Britain, battled Omni's mercenary legions. Gallagher was mortally wounded by Dolph but used his power to heal the poisoned caverns, dying as he restored the land. Omni's operations collapsed, and Cam was freed. The team relocated to Camelaird Farm in Wiltshire, which Chapman purchased as their base. Soon after, visions summoned Adam Crown, a youth who drew Caliburn and assumed Arthur's mantle. In the climactic battle, the Green Knight summoned Pendragons of all ages to repel the Red Lord, including Little John, Albion, Captain Britain, and others. Gallagher was briefly resurrected but perished permanently as the Red Lord was banished.; ===The Green Chapel Era===; With Crown's leadership, the Knights established themselves in Avalon's Green Chapel, discovering enchanted armor in the Armory that adapted to each bearer. Grace, freed of the Bane, was accepted as a Pendragon, and a robot vessel imbued with Gawain's spirit joined the team. Later, Astra journalist Breeze James inherited Guinevere's spirit. The team defended Britain against the Bane and Mys-Tech's manipulations. They clashed with the manipulator Magpie, confronted Shadow Wing and his apocalyptic Seeds of Winter incantation, and foiled a meltdown at Cape Wrath caused by the tormented worker Iain Guthrie, with Gawain absorbing a nuclear blast to save the land. They also traveled to the realm of Arakne, where they fought the Arrakhyl and the sorcerous Spiridkin, confronting Malekyth and even encountering Spider-Man.; ===Mys-Tech Wars===; As Omni's masters in Mys-Tech escalated their schemes, the Pendragons allied with the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four during the Mys-Tech Wars, sealing the Un-Earth and battling demonic Psycho-Warriors. They subsequently opposed Baron Blood, and the King of Pain, who slew and corrupted several Pendragons until the Green Knight restored them. Albion was conscripted into the Dark Guard by the Time Guardian, serving alongside Motormouth, Killpower, and other UK heroes against Mys-Tech's off-world agents. He later fought beside G-Force against Die-Cut.; ===Secret Invasion===; During the Skrulls' Secret Invasion of Britain, a Super-Skrull decapitated the Green Knight in Avalon, severing his bond to the Pendragon Spirit.The Skrulls redirected the Pendragon Force into their soldiers, empowering them as they attacked London. When the invasion collapsed, the Green Knight was restored and the Pendragon Force returned to its rightful hosts.; ===Final Campaign===; The Pendragons' last campaigns brought them into conflict with Lemurians of Earth-313, who accused them of devastating their realm during the Arakne incursion. In Britain, Magpie once more attempted to summon the Red Lord, and Adam Crown sacrificed himself by drawing the entity into exile, vanishing into its dimension.; ===Revolutionary War===; Years later, the Pendragons reassembled when Mys-Tech resurfaced. Albion, Union Jack, Dai Thomas, Kate McClellan, and their allies joined forces with Britain's defenders, including Captain Britain, Death's Head II, and Dark Angel, during the Revolutionary War. Together they confronted Mys-Tech's revived forces and prevented Mephisto from breaching into Britain, proving that the spirit of Camelot endures whenever the land is threatened.; ==Members==; The following individuals have served as Pendragons, bonded with aspects of the Pendragon Spirit echoing the champions of Camelot:; Peter Hunter — Manifested the spirit of Albion, embodying the will of King Arthur.; Dai Thomas — Initially received visions of slaughter and resurrection through the spirit of Gawain.; Kate McClellan — Chosen as the vessel of Guinevere.; Ben Gallagher — Inspired by the Holy Grail, he embodied empathy and sacrifice through Sir Percival's spirit.; Union Jack (Joseph Chapman) — Manifested the ferocity and knightly courage of Lancelot.; Cam McClellan' — Briefly possessed by an uncontrolled Pendragon Spirit, later targeted as a vessel for the Red Lord.; Adam Crown — Drew the Caliburn, the Sword of the Dawn, inheriting the mantle of Arthur's heir and Pendragon king.; ===Later Recruits:===; Francesca Grace — Once a Bane Queen, later redeemed and accepted as a true Pendragon.; Sir Gawain (Robot) — An amusement park robot brought to life housing the spirit of Sir Gawain after Dai Thomas stepped down.; Breeze James — Former Mys-Tech agent who inherited the Guinevere spirit after Kate McClellan's retirement.

+Species / origin: A team put together by Daredevil to overthrow the Kingpin.
+Reality: Earth-1610
+Base of operations: New York City, New York
+History:
+===Recruiting===; Someone known as Shang-Chi pretended to be interested in a job as the bodyguard/assassin of Wilson Fisk, the "Kingpin of Crime". He failed and narrowly escaped from his "interview" for the job. But just as he got to a safe location, he was confronted by one of the Kingpin's greatest enemies, Daredevil. After being rescued by Daredevil, Shang-Chi was then informed by him of a team he was putting together for a strike on the Kingpin, in which Shang-Chi was recruited by Daredevil to help bring down the Kingpin for good.; After Shang-Chi, Daredevil as Matt Murdock, met Peter Parker at Midtown High School and asked him to join the group, with the plan of killing the Kingpin, but Daredevil was turned down. In case Spider-Man changed his mind though, Murdock told him to go to the rooftop across from the street from St. Patrick's Cathedral at eight o'clock that night.; ===Killing Kingpin===; After the group meet on their intended location, Daredevil revealed his plan on overthrowing the Kingpin, even if it meant killing the mob boss. However, Spider-Man objected to the idea of killing the Kingpin, and the group revised their plan and agreed to let Moon Knight, under the persona of Ronin, to join the Kingpin's employ. He would get close enough to find all of the incriminating evidence on him, and then the Knights would turn the information over to the authorities.; However, after the first meeting of the Ultimate Knights, Iron Fist arranged an audience with the Kingpin, telling him the entire story about the Knights and their plans. The Kingpin replied, "If this is true... then you have certainly earned my friendship".; Under the Kingpin's employ as a bodyguard, Ronin was order to forcibly bring Spider-Man to the Kingpin as a captive. After revealing that he knew that Ronin was Moon Knight, Kingpin had him beaten nearly to death, and let Spider-Man leave with the knowledge that one of the Knights was a traitor. When Spider-Man arrived, everyone was already there discussing what will be done.; Moon Knight was taken to an abandoned riverside by two of the Kingpin's henchmen and they executed him with a bullet shot to his head. After they disposed his body in the river, Moon Knight emerged alive and well.; On the same meeting on the rooftop, Spider-Man aggressively attacked Daredevil accusing him for working for the Kingpin. But after a bomb (planted by the Kingpin's men) destroyed the law offices of Matt Murdock, Iron Fist was revealed as the traitor, though only because Kingpin threatened his daughter's life. Iron Fist was sent back to Kingpin to distract him while Daredevil tried to kill his comatose wife. After a standoff between Daredevil, Kingpin, and Spider-Man, Kingpin agreed to leave the country in exchange for his wife's safety, but he secretly and furiously plotted to have Daredevil killed, Dr. Strange's hands broken, and Spider-Man's school blown up. Meanwhile, Moon Knight went to the police, revealed his secret identity, and said that the Kingpin tried to kill him, which gave the police enough incriminating evidence to arrest the Kingpin on attempted murder charges.; After the arrest of the Kingpin, the Knights quietly went their separate ways: Shang-Chi caught a train out of town, Iron Fist returned to his daughter, Dr. Strange went back to his sanctum, Daredevil berated himself at a church, and Peter Parker sadly walked by a store bearing Spider-Man products.

+Weapons: Each member of the team was equipped with his own arsenal. Blitzkrieg wore a battery pack that enabled him to fire razor-tipped electrified cables. Säurespritze possessed a gauntlet that could project highly corrosive acid and Zahnmörder wore a special glove that housed several bladed weapons.
+Notes: Retroactively, the three members of the Killing Squad are the first costumed super-villains to ever fight up against Captain America.
+History:
+Das Vernichtungs-Kommandos, or Killing Squad, was a super-villain team that existed during the early part of World War II. The three team members consisted of Blitzkrieg, Säurespritze and Zahnmörder. They were assigned by the Red Skull and Agent X to find the assistants of the late Abraham Erskine and gain from them knowledge of the Super-Soldier Serum.; In early March of 1941, Agent X's superior, the Red Skull, learned of the secret U.S. military program known as Project: Rebirth. Seeking to acquire the project's secrets to create his own army of super-soldiers, he sent the Killing Squad to the United States to steal the formula that transformed scrawny Steve Rogers into the muscle-bound Captain America.; The creator of Project: Rebirth's Super Soldier Serum, Doctor Abraham Erskine, had already been assassinated by a Nazi agent. Before his passing however, he gave each of his research assistants a part of the formula. He entrusted the complete formula, as well as the secret of his Vita-Ray research to one man, Colonel James Fletcher.; The Killing Squad systematically sought out all of Erskine's associates. Säurespritze broke into the home of a scientist named Anderson and murdered him while he was taking a shower. Blitzkrieg intercepted an Army convoy transporting a scientist named Doctor Keller to a safe house. He killed Keller with his electric barbs as well as the military personnel assigned to protect him.; When the Red Skull discovered that Colonel Fletcher possessed the complete formula, he sent the Killing Squad to the Project: Rebirth facility to abduct him. Säurespritze turned his acid upon a soldier named Billy, killing him, while his two compatriots got to work capturing Colonel Fletcher. Zahnmörder had been hoping to get his hands on Captain America himself, but satisfied himself nonetheless by slaughtering several military officers.; They brought him to a hidden safe house where they interrogated him at length. Fletcher managed to escape, but Blitzkrieg entangled Fletcher in his electro-cables as the soldier dived out the window. Both men fell to the ground, but survived. Blitzkrieg's cable was still attached to Fletcher as he entered a vehicle and began to drive off. The Nazi sent another electrical surge down the conduit that caused the car to explode. Fletcher survived, but Blitzkrieg and the others tracked him to a local eatery called Smyth Diner. Säurespritze captured Fletcher and collectively, they slaughtered everybody else in the establishment to send a message to Captain America. The Killing Squad then brought their prisoner to a Nazi compound in occupied Paris, France.; Along with another Nazi agent known as the Master Interrogator, the Killing Squad continued to torture Colonel Fletcher, but he refused to yield the secrets of the Super Soldier Formula. Fletcher was able to escape once again, but his freedom was short-lived as he flung himself through a window to his death. The complete Super Soldier Formula died with him.; Captain America, arriving too late to save Fletcher, raided the Nazi compound and fought against the Killing Squad. Säurespritze tried to get Cap in a strangle-hold, but the hero pushed himself and his assailant backward over a staircase banister. When Säurespritze landed, he shattered the backpack cylinder containing his corrosive arsenal and was killed by his own acid. Blitzkrieg fired his electro-dart at Captain America, but the hero deflected it with his shield. The assailants continued to exchange blows with one another and Säurespritze was killed during the fight. Cap ran out of the compound onto the streets of Paris, but Blitzkrieg and Zahnmörder stayed close behind. As they approached the Eiffel Tower, Blitzkrieg fired his electro-dart again, but his battery pack malfunctioned, causing a power surge that electrocuted him. Zahnmörder maintained his pursuit of Captain America and followed him up the Eiffel Tower. Waiting for them at the top of the tower however was Zahnmörder's supreme commander, the Red Skull. Unimpressed with Zahnmörder's inability to defeat the American super-hero, the Skull shot him in the forehead and Zahnmörder's body plummeted to the ground. With the death of Zahnmörder, the Killing Squad was no more.

+Species / origin: Unofficial title for the assemblage of Counter-Earth's greatest scientific minds.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: State University on Counter-Earth
+History:
+When the Fantastic Four and the Avengers sacrificed their lives to destroy Onslaught, Franklin Richards, the son of the FF's Mr. Fantastic and Invisible Woman subconsciously created a pocket universe to save their lives. There they spent an entire year reliving living their new lives "reborn" into a reality where they recently gained their abilities that vaguely mirror how they gained their powers originally.; In this pocket-dimension history would unfold in a way that the greatest minds of those who sacrificed themselves in the Onslaught event would attend the same school and have a close relationship prior to being "reborn" as that world's greatest heroes. These men would include Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Henry Pym, Bruce Banner, and Victor von Doom. Rounding the group would be Conner "Rebel" O'Reilly, a being unique to Counter-Earth, who was friends with Tony Stark.; The group would work together on a group project to develop an exo-suit, a piece of personal armor. However, none could come to an agreement on how the armor should be used. Stark would wish to profit off the armor, while Richards wished to use it for the betterment of mankind, while Doom wanted to use the technology to take over his home country of Latveria. Ultimately the group fell apart, each member going on to their own independent areas of expertise. Stark and O'Reilly would continue to work on a suit of personalized armor, developing what would eventually become the Prometheum Armor. Doom would mock them when news would come out that the Russian government had developed their own suit of personal armor.; Doom himself would continue on with his own experimental armor, and one day while attempting to activate it on his own he'd be interrupted by Reed Richards. Doom would ask Richards to assist in his glory, however Richards would refuse, and then point out an error in his calculations. Scoffing at this notion, Doom would attempt to activate the armor, causing an explosion that would horribly scar his entire body. For his reckless actions Doom was expelled from State University.; The group would drift apart and in modern times they would all become important members of the newly formed super-hero community:; Reed Richards would develop the Excelsior warp-drive ship and be involved in an accident that would find himself and his crew bombarded with nuclear radiation and the Power Cosmic changing them all into the Fantastic Four whom Reed would lead as Mr. Fantastic.; Tony Stark and "Rebel" O'Reilly would develop complete their Prometheum Armor. O'Reilly, the memory of Russia's advancement, would take the armor out on an unauthorized trip into Russian airspace and clash with Titanium Man. The armor would be damaged, causing it to malfunction during its first official test, and kill O'Reilly. Stark would become a ruthless CEO of Stark International, but eventually have a literal and figurative change of heart when an attack by Hydra would lodge shrapnel in his heart forcing him to wear the Prometheum Armor to survive. He would become the hero Iron Man and eventually join the Avengers. O'Reilly would be resurrected by Hydra and sent against Stark, but the two would crush the organization at the seeming death of O'Reilly once more.; Henry Pym would go off to gain an expertise in size-changing and robotics, eventually dating Janet van Dyne. He would develop the android Vision and the robot Ultron and be hired by SHIELD to join the Avengers as their support staff. He would ultimately join their ranks as Ant-Man.; Bruce Banner would become an expert in gamma radiation and begin working for Stark International. There during the same Hydra attack that would birth Iron Man, Banner would be exposed to a lethal amount of gamma radiation, causing him to become the man/monster known as the Hulk.; Victor von Doom, would end up seeking out a Tibetan monastery where it was said that they could treat the constant pain his horribly maimed body suffered. He would ultimately develop a suit of armor of his own, and now calling himself Dr. Doom, would take over his home country of Latveria.; Each member would cross paths many times during their heroic careers, however they would officially (minus the then deceased O'Reilly) reunite to work together in building the Ultimate Nullifier weapon to combat the threat of Galactus when he had come to devour the Earth.; Following the defeat of Galactus, all the members of the Atomic Knights would ultimately return to their native reality of Earth-616 to resume their super-heroic activities there. Doom for a time would briefly control Counter-Earth before abandoning it. Rebel would be resurrected once more and has been active as a resistance fighter against Master Man and later an enforcer for Doom during the time that he ruled Counter-Earth.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Knight order of Skrull-Kree Hybrids
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Throneworld II, Large Magellanic Cloud; Formerly:; Castle Tarnala, Forbidden Asteroids, Andromeda Galaxy
+Affiliation: Alliance
+Equipment: The Knights of The Infinite utilize a blend of Kree and Skrull technologies which is operated by either a blend of science magic or some form of low level reality warping.
+Transportation: Knight Ship: The knights possess a half-a-mile wide space vessel capable of masking its presence and entering planetary orbit without detection, has faster than light transport.
+Trivia: The Knights of the Infinite appear to be named after characters from the legends of King Arthur; M'ryn corresponds to Merlin, K'kyy to Sir Kay, Lan-Zarr to Lancelot, and Mur-G'nn to Morgan (le Fay).
+History:
+The Knights of the Infinite were a group of Skrull/Kree hybrids gathered together over time by the very first of their kind, Dorrek Supreme. The objective of Dorrek was to shape this group of outcasts into heroes dedicated to uniting the two warring empires. As time passed, the Knights started believing in the prophecy that once the Skrull and the Kree empires fell, the Knights were destined to unify and protect the two empires, under the leadership of he who managed to take up Dorrek Supreme's sword, Excelsior, a feat that would prove him as the reincarnation of Dorrek Supreme. The Knights eyed the first royal hybrid in thousands of years, Dorrek VIII, known to Earthers as the super hero Hulkling.; Following the destruction of the Kree capital planet Hala, the Knights were anxious to recruit Dorrek VIII to become their king. However, the elder M'ryn the Magus, who had created the prophecy, tried to postpone its fulfillment, because another part of the prophecy he maintained secret from the Knights involved his death. The Knights decided to part anyways, and they travelled to Earth and kidnapped Hulkling, and his boyfriend Wiccan by accident. The Knights returned to their base of operations, the Forbidden Asteroids, apologized for the kidnapping, and showed Hulkling the test he had to pass in order to see if he was truly the chosen one: pulling Excelsior from a stone. Hulkling passed the test, and the Knights kneeled before him.; When the Knights returned to their home, Castle Tarnala, they discovered the corpse of M'ryn possessed by the evil wizard Moridun. Any attempts at damaging Moridun were in vain, and the creature soon absorbed enough power to grow in size, destroying the castle from the inside out. Hulkling and Wiccan's teammates, the New Avengers, joined the brawl against Moridun, to no avail. After accidentally absorbing an energy blast from Moridun with Excelsior, he realized he could use it against Moridun. The New Avengers distracted Moridun long enough to allow Hulkling to stab him in the face, seemingly killing the creature.; Once the dust settled, the Knights buried those lost to Moridun and allowed Hulkling to leave, explaining that the young hero had a duty to his friends, and he wouldn't be their king if he was capable of abandoning that. Before biding farewell, Lan-Zarr promised that when the time was right, the Knights of the Infinite would fight at his side.; As they prophesized for so long, the Kree Imperium and Skrull Empire merged together to form the Kree/Skrull Alliance in response to the threat posed by the Cotati, having overcome their long running feud and choosing Hulkling as their emperor. The Knights joined the newly established Alliance, with Mur-G'nn becoming part of the Alliance Royal Guard as their representative, and after the defeat of the Cotati they attended the royal wedding of Hulkling and Wiccan.; The Alliance again came under the attack of Dormammu and his Mindless Ones who wished to use the Kree/Skrull Throneworld II in his ritual to merge reality with the Dark Dimension. As the Mindless Ones invaded the Skrulls' homeworld of Skrullos, Wiccan gathered the Knights to defend it. They kept the Mindless Ones from progressing any further, until S.W.O.R.D. arrived to their rescue, and together they managed to repel the invaders.

Unfortunately, everything went horribly wrong due to their being tainted by Hydra's neurotoxin resulting in their unexpected self-replication, forcing Bruno and Mike Miller to subsequently create a gigantic dinosaur golem to combat them.; As the Kamala golems and dinosaur golem rampaged through Jersey City, the JCPD were overwhelmed, prompting Bruno and Mike to summon Loki Laufeyson as a last resort. The God of Mischief then led his Guardian Golems into battle, engaging the other golems on Sussex Street.; With the situation clearly out of hand, Ms. Marvel activated her Locator Pendant, summoning Captain Marvel to the scene. Alpha Flight targeted all non-carbon based lifeforms on Sussex Street from the A.F.S.S. and neutralized the threat with extreme prejudice.

They became the masters of Aleister's subconscious, channeling their power through it, harassing him with monsters born from his own twisted psyche.; Aleister managed to sent a call towards his past friend Stephen Strange. Finally hearing his call for help, Strange managed to rejoin Aleister, but had no way to free his friend. Aleister urged Strange to save his soul by the only possible way: destroying the force-wheel.

+Notes: In Ultimate Invasion Vol 1 3, one of Kang's soldiers mentions that the original strike force sent after the Maker resulted from four thousand years of genetic engineering, and that the second batch was made with six thousand years, but it's not clear if the second number is cumulative or additional.
+History:
+In the far future of Earth-6160, the warrior Kang assembled a genetically engineered army that consisted mostly of clones which were turned into super-soldiers modelled after Thor, Captain America, Giant-Man, the Wasp and the Vision. The army was stationed outside of time when it encountered and fought the Guardians of the Galaxy of Earth-6160, the original 61st century of Earth-6160. Kang sent this army to present-day Latveria in an assassination attempt on the Maker. The soldiers were engaged by a cabal of world leaders that were the Maker's allies, and the army was eventually subdued. Tracking down their DNA to their present-day ancestors, the Maker killed them to cause the future soldiers to cease to exist.; Back in the future, Kang amassed a larger army composed of different genetic material. In the present, the Maker sought the assistance of the brilliant inventor Howard Stark to replace his broken time machine, the Immortus Engine. Stark and his associate Reed Richards decided to betray the Maker. While Stark was delivering the second Immortus Engine to the Maker, Richards infiltrated the mainframe of the Maker's headquarters, the City, and temporarily disabled its temporal shields. This allowed Kang and his army to launch an attack within the Maker's domain, but also trapped them inside the City. Kang and the Maker engaged in a battle until Stark intervened, empowered by the second Immortus Engine. He used it to blast the Maker and Kang, as well as both of their armies, which seemingly killed the combatants.

+The Empire of Acheron tried to subdue Cimmeria, but was unable to defeat and conquer it. Young Cimmerians were brought to Python, capital of Acheron, where they grew to make up the King's Elite Guard of Bafomai, who surrounded himself with them due to them only speaking their Cimmerian tongue when on duty. Because they were outlanders and because of their closeness to the king, the Acheronian royal guardsmen hated the Cimmerians, who despised them in turn.; Tricked by a time-displaced Conan, the Cimmerians turned against their Acheronian fellows as the Hyborian horde approached Python. As the Sack of Python began, the Cimmerians were still fighting the Acheronians. Their ultimate fate remains unrevealed.

He subsequently escaped the palace grounds, where he was intercepted by Pete Wisdom and agents of MI13.

+Page: Knights of Wundagore (Earth-616)
+Full name: Knights of Wundagore
+Other aliases: New Men
+First appearance: Thor Vol 1 134
+Created by: Stan Lee; Jack Kirby
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Created and organized by the High Evolutionary to oppose Chthon should he ever return.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Wundagore Mountain
+Equipment: Advanced armor.
+Weapons: Advanced weaponry, ranging from swords to energy weapons.
+Transportation: "Atomic Steeds": which the High Evolutionary constructed them with help from the ghost of a 6th century magician named Magus.
+Notes: An alternate version of the Knights of Wundagore are featured in the Spider-Man Unlimited animated series.
+History:
+===Creation===; When scientist Herbert Wyndham was approached by a mysterious benefactor in the early 20th century, he was given the resources and knowledge to construct a massive research lab on Wundagore Mountain in the Eastern European country of Transia to conduct his experiments on evolution and genetics. From his work, he created the New Men, humanoid creatures evolved from normal animals and given human-level intelligence.; Soon afterward, the Evolutionary is approached by the spirit of a sixth-century sorcerer Magnus inhabiting the body of his assistant, Jonathan Drew, who warns him of the coming of Chthon, and ancient evil sealed beneath the mountain. In order to repel him, Magnus offers to train the New Men in the art of combat and chivalry like the heroes of his day, The Knights of the Round Table. The Knights of Wundagore are formed, and Chthon, attacking through a host body called The Other, is defeated.; Using a new isotope, The Evolutionary created the Man-Beast, an evolved from wolf with mental powers, who quickly ousted his creator from his citadel in a bid to take over the world. Thor helps the Knights to defeat the Man-Beast, but the Evolutionary decides to take his citadel into space to seek a new destiny for his creations.; ===Into Space===; The High Evolutionary, converting his citadel into a spaceship, left earth along with his Knights. After creating his own version of Earth known as Counter-Earth, The Evolutionary and his Knights are attacked by Man-Beast, who followed them to the new world with his own New Men. With the help of Adam Warlock, the Man-Beast is defeated and partially devolved.; The High Evolutionary later migrated his New Men to a planet in the Sirius System he called Wundagore II. Giving in to their animalistic nature, all New Men, including the Knights, eventually became savage and warlike. With their society threatened, the Evolutionary evolved himself into possessing god-like psionic powers and devolved his own creations, including the Knights, back into normal animals.; Some time later, this world would be discovered by Commander Arcturus of the Rigellian colonizers who was seeking a new homeworld to use as a staging ground to wage war against his people's leader, the Grand Commissioner. When one of Arcturus' irradiated probes lands on Wundagore II, it creates a mutagenic effect which evolves all the New Men back to their humanoid forms. Arcturus' fleet attacks the planet, but are ultimately repelled by a collaboration of the Knights, Iron Man, the Jack of Hearts, and the Soviet Super-Soldiers. The New Men re-formed their society and, now led by the Knight Sir Lyan, continued to live in peace.; ===Siege of Wundagore===; Returning to Earth, the High Evolutionary must fight to reclaim his former home of Wundagore Mountain from the Acolytes, who see the site as holy ground since it was the last known location of Magneto's wife, Magda. To prevent further attacks, he creates a new team of Knights to watch over his citadel, who eventually do battle with the Acolytes and Genoshan Mutates during their attempt to re-take the mountain. Forced to retreat, the Knights re-group at their New York base, The Haven, and the Evolutionary appoints Quicksilver as the new team leader while he recouperates in the Savage Land.; When the Evolutionary's Savage Land base is attacked by mutants hired by Exodus, the Knights come to his aid, only to find out that one of their members, Lord Anon, is in fact the Man-Beast, having killed the original holder of the name, Sir Wulf. The Knights later team up with the Heroes for Hire and are able to re-claim their home from the combined forces of Man-Beast and the Acolytes. Quicksilver leaves the team shortly afterward.; ===Endangered Species===; After the events of M-Day, where the majority of Earth's mutants lost their powers and the X-Gene was seemingly wiped from humanity, the X-Man Beast travels to Wundagore Mountain to meet with the Evolutionary to find a way to reverse it. There, he meets with a new group of Knights led by Snow Queen, who attack him before his audience.; ===Earth's Mightiest===; In an attempt to summon the Elder God Chthon back into the world, the dark magician Modred seized control of the Dark Hold cavern underneath Wundagore Mountain, killing every Knight present, except for Bova, before being defeated by the Mighty Avengers. It is unknown which Knights specifically were slain during the attack.

+Full name: Latverian Liberation Front
+Other aliases: LLF
+First appearance: Alpha Flight Vol 1 91
+Created by: Fabian Nicieza; Michael Bair
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Created by Doctor Doom (Kristoff Vernard)
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Equipment: The soldiers of the Latverian Liberation Front wear high-tech armor that protects their upper bodies down to the groin; the legs apparently are not coverd by technology. The armor leaves their mouths bare, but shields their eyes with goggles that may or may not have a technological function. The shape of the armor is very restrictive and does not allow neck mobility. Vambraces end not in fingered gauntlets, but rather a four-barreled energy weapon. Doctor Doom's Armor's force field proved enough to withstand a direct hit of this weapon.; A characteristic feature of the armor is its self-destruct mechanism that causes, in the event of defeat and possible capture, the armor to burst into flames, killing the soldier and charring the corpse, to prevent both the agent and the armor from falling into enemy hands. This mechanism seemed to be automatic, but it has been confirmed that there is a triggering signal with electromagnetic frequency, which an external agent can activate at will.; Another feature is the stealth mechanism that allows an armored agent to impersonate another individual, including specific people, with enough accuracy to trick those who know the impersonated individual (such as pretending to be a member of the Prime Minister's cabinet and tricking the Prime Minister himself). However, while doing so, their armor will still emit recognizable frequencies, and a wavelength spectrograph is enough to identify the armor-users. The armors also had a teleportation device, but it was apparently controlled by outer sources.; The armors are not especially powerful and were especially damaged by several members of Alpha Flight: The armors take damage from a super-sonic attack from Madison Jeffries's Box armor; from Vindicator electromagnetism control; and by direct hits like Northstar's super-fast slam or short Puck thrown like a ball by the super-strong Diamond Lil.
+History:
+The so-called Latverian Liberation Front was supposedly a group of defenders of freedom in the country of Latveria who opposed the government of Doctor Doom (who by then had been replaced by Kristoff Vernard posing as the original Doom). They were seen on Canadian soil when Vernard visited the country to try to buy them pure water, since Latveria's supply had been contaminated. Vernard, knowing that the Doom government was internationally unpopular (and in fact other countries had already refused to help Latveria), anticipated popular protests, and is believed to have organized the Front to launch assassination attempts against him personally, in an attempt to to generate sympathy towards his person; although evidence of this scheme was found and Vernard was directly accused, he refused to confirm or refute it.; Four members of the Front infiltrated Canada via a boat transport that went up the Humber River to Corner Brook, Newfoundland, during the night. Interpol got a tip that someone was trying to smuggle high-tech there, and Canadian national heroes Alpha Flight went to intercept it. The dock workers were quickly outmatched, and then four members of the Front were defeated, only to burst into flames. Faced with the apparent direct threat to the life of the guest diplomat, the Canadian Federal Parliament agreed to place Doom under the personal protection of Alpha Flight. There was then a direct attack against Vernard, when he was meeting with the Canadian Parliament, this time with ten attackers. Alpha Flight protected him, as well as the Canadian Prime Minister, but they found it unusual that Doom's force field was enough to protect him against attacks. When the Front soldiers were defeated and killed, Alpha Flight's leader, Vindicator, explained that he had traced the self-destruct mechanism's triggering signal to Doom's armor, accusing him of organizing the attacks. Instead of responding, Vernard claimed diplomatic immunity and teleported away; but his plan had failed because Latveria had lost international support.

+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Pacific Ocean
+Weapons: The Laughing Death Patrol used a powerful and lethal gas that caused the skin of those exposed to it to turn green. Those exposed to the gas would literally laugh themselves to death. The gas was fast acting and could kill in a matter of minutes. One could protect themselves from the gas by wearing a standard issue gas mask.
+Transportation: The Laughing Death Patrol flew specially modified Japanese Zero fighters that could release chemical gasses. They were deployed from a battleship.
+Notes: The Laughing Death Patrol's laughing gas works in a similar fashion to the Joker Gas used by the DC Comics' villain, the Joker. It's unknown if the laughing gas was inspired by the Joker Gas.
+History:
+The Laughing Death Patrol was a squad of Imperial Japanese fighter pilots that were active during World War II. Piloting specially made Zero fighters, they used a lethal gas that caused those exposed to it to literally laugh themselves to death -- a side effect of the gas would cause their skin to turn green as well.; In February of 1943, members of the Laughing Death Patrol clashed with American fighters out on the Pacific. The American fighters were exposed to the lethal gas, but returned to their battleship before the final effects of the gas took their lives. This horrific display was witnessed by Doug "Jap Buster" Johnson who also witnessed as the members of the Laughing Death Squad attacked the ship but were forced to retreat by its defenses.; Soon, Johnson was allowed to partake in a solo mission to wipe out the Laughing Death Patrol. Clashing with them in the air, Johnson realized that the Patrol was attempting to trick him into flying into clouds of the green gas. He refrained from doing so shooting the fighters down instead.; Finding the battleship they came from, Johnson landed and allowed himself to be captured. Breaking free, Johnson stole an Admiral's uniform and then rushed to the lower decks of the ship and unleashed the gas aboard the crew. Eventually, Johnson abandoned ship after tipping his Navy to the location of the vessel. Any members of the Laughing Death Patrol who was not killed by their own gas were killed when an American destroyer sank their ship.

+Weapons: The Last Vikings wielded weapons such as swords, spears, and axes that were commonly used by the original Vikings of Norway in the 11th Century.
+Transportation: The Last Vikings travelled the seas in a 11th Century Viking warship.
+History:
+The Last of the Vikings' origins begin in the 11th century. A band of Norwegian Vikings led by Hunsen the Hated tried to stage a political revolution. Their attempt failed in the year 1248 and they were exiled from Norway. They sailed west and found an uninhabited island that they colonized and lived on in seclusion for many centuries.; By the Mid-20th Century the Last of the Vikings were ruled by Hunsen the Hated's descendant Hunsen. In 1948 a plague spread across the island killing everyone except for the strongest men. With no other choice, Hunsen and his men left the island and continued to sail west until they reached the United States. Their passage was spotted by a modern day ship and the information was relayed to Dr. Svorland, a expert on Viking history. He called upon the Sub-Mariner and Namora to help him investigate.; Meanwhile, the Vikings arrived on shore and attacked a small farm house killing its owner. Finding the bounty within the dead man's home, Hunsen decided they must go to war against the United States, unaware of how impossible such a task was. With Namor and Namora out searching for them, the Vikings soon captured the latter. When they told her their plans she tried to convince them to reconsider. The Sub-Mariner soon let himself be captured and tried to explain to Hunsen that they were greatly overpowered by the United States Navy. Hunson only would accept these "wild tales" if Namor could best him in a battle over the Truth-Stick, a pole that two warriors grappled over when they disputed truth. Although Hunsen was strong, the Sub-Mariner eventually began to gain the upper hand. When the other Vikings tried to prevent Namor from winning, Namora joined the fight, but the two Atlanteans were forced to flee.; Hunsen and his men returned to their ship and prepared to invade American shores, but were once more opposed by the Sub-Mariner and Namora. This time the heroes destroyed their ship, the entire crew drowned except for Hunsen. Namor and Namora dragged him to shore and learned of the Vikings history before Hunsen himself died as well. With the last Viking dead, Namor, Namora and Dr. Svorland all agreed to keep this discovery a secret.

+Reality: Earth-616

+History:
+===Origin===; The great wizard Merlin guided King Arthur into forming Camelot and the Court of the Pendragon. No mere words may compass it, It feels now more a dream than a domain and that perhaps is by design. A city rich with Marvels, Camelot was made into the glorious kingdom of history, legend and myth. Arthur takes command of Camelot, and inaugurates a new era of heroes, including the his Knights of the Round Table. The Round Table at which they meet is a symbol of the equality of its members, who range from sovereign royals to minor nobles. The roster includes the legendary members Sir Percival, the Black Knight, Sir Lancelot, Galahad and Gawain. But the true roster was lost to time included such as Cai Hir the Tall, The Florid Gwalchmai, Feirefiz the Magpie Knight, Sir Bedwyr of the Perfect Sinew, Apatheia of the Middle Path, Menw the Shifter, The Grim Huntress, and later Arthur illegitimate son Mordred. The team is successful, leading to a blossoming of "chivalry" and "valor" as their deeds illuminate what is otherwise a dark age of Britain.; ===Black Knight===; Years prior to the fall of Camelot, the Knights and their King were unaware that Arthur's relative Mordred and his consort Morgan Le Fay plotted to take over the kingdom. However the royal wizard Merlyn divined this treachery and called upon Sir Percy of Scandia, Mordred's nephew, to come to Camelot and act as his champion the Black Knight. In order to maintain a secret identity, Percy acted as a clumsy pacifist, whom the Knights thought very little of. Not long after Sir Percy's arrival, King Arthur went missing prompting Lancelot, Galahad and Sir Gawain went out searching for the King unaware that Mordred has secretly locked Arthur in the dungeons below the castle. The searched fruitlessly until the Black Knight rescued Arthur from the dungeon, but could not find evidence that implicated Mordred in the plot.; Later when Mordred once again took control of the throne following the kidnapping of King Arthur at the hands of French-Sicilian pirates hired by Mordred, the Knights of the Round Table were sent off on false leads to locate the King. Eventually the Black Knight rescued King Arthur and returned him to Camelot where he retook the throne.; ===Quest for the Holy Grail===; King Arthur and his knights sought out the Holy Grail on a quest. The grail was cup which Jesus Christ supposedly drank from at the Last Supper and the cup used by Joseph of Arimathea to capture the blood of Christ at the crucifixion after being stabbed by the Spear of Destiny. It is said who ever drank from it vessel would gain eternal youth. It was originally kept at Glastonbury Tor in Britain. Most of the knight's returned badly wounded, or worse. It was said the grail was guarded by the Lady of the Lake.; ===Chronarchists===; During the temporal disruptions caused by the Chronarchists, the Hulk was dispatched by the T.I.M.E. division into 6th century Britain. Arriving near Camelot, the green goliath was immediately challenged by Knights of the Round Table, who mistook him for a monstrous invader. The court's champion, the Black Knight, met Hulk in combat with the Ebony Blade until Merlin halted the duel and recognized the Hulk's role in defending the realm. When Chronarchist agents supplied Arthur's Saxon enemies with futuristic weaponry, Camelot faced annihilation. Hulk fought side by side with the Knights of the Round Table against the invaders, smashing through both warriors and advanced war machines while the Black Knight and the knights rode with him. Merlin's sorcery clashed with the Chronarchists' temporal devices until Banner's scientific intervention and Hulk's raw strength destroyed the anomaly, restoring the timeline. Following the battle, Merlin cryptically warned of Hulk's destiny, while King Arthur honored him as a champion of Camelot. Hulk was then pulled back to the present through the T.I.M.E. portal.; ===Fall of Camelot===; Eventually Lancelot began an affair with Queen Guinevere, when this became common knowledge the realm was thrown into a civil war which was capitalized by Mordred who brought about Camelot's fall and the death of King Arthur, many of the knights were slain.

After a short battle with the team he leapt away, explaining that the Fantastic Four required further study. Later the Fantastic Four found Nova (Frankie Raye) inside the head of Galactus and she escaped. The rest of the Law Enforcement Squad arrived on Earth-616 and Nova arrived to attack them. They were also found by the Fantastic Four, who had followed Nova and they battled the Law Enforcement Squad until Doctor Druid and Captain Universe to read Mr. Fantastic's to learn the truth about the Fantastic Four. Captain Universe knocked down by a flame blast from the Human Torch and Doctor Druid ordered the Law Enforcement Squad to stop battling, which they did. Doctor Druid and Mr. Fantastic used Captain Universe to travel within to the fabric of the Universe. Inside, they met Abraxas, who was surrounded by the remains of Galactus. Upon returning to Earth-616 the Law Enforcement Squad vanished, presumably returned to their own reality.

Strange radiation emitted from the corpse disabled their cloaking devices, allowing the human forces to launch a massive nuclear strike at their ship, decimating their numbers.; Survivors of this attack, including Mar-Vell, were then taken to a Kree Reservation in Nevada, a former nuclear testsite, where as a result of exposure to radiation, the entire Kree population developed cancer. With 7/8 children stillborn, the KLF is slowly dying.

+History:
+The Kree Kleaners are a variety of Kree soldiers deployed to deliver judgement in name of the Kree Empire. They are artificially conceived inside a pod once it's activated by a beacon signal. Afterwards, the baby's inception and gestation is accelerated and they grow into an adult into a matter of hours. During this process, they are instructed by the Kleaner combat tutorials on their way to their objective. A Kree Kleaner is also accompanied by a group of self-regenerating combat drones, which help the Kleaner locate and eliminate their target.; When Captain Marvel unwittingly turned on a Kree tracer used by her mother Mari-Ell, a Kree desertor, the tracker sent out a beacon that activated one of countless Kleaner pods floating in space. A Kleaner was deployed to deliver Mari-Ell's death sentence for treason. The pod landed in Canada, and the Kleaner made its way to Harpswell, Maine. Mari-Ell managed to fend off the Kleaner, but she returned and took her son Joe Jr. hostage. Carol and Mari-Ell confronted the Kleaner in the center of Harpswell, and Mari-Ell was fatally injured blocking a spear meant for Carol. Deeming her mission complete, the Kleaner used Mari-Ell's tracking device to discorporate herself.

They went to the Immortal City and announced to Michelangelo that they would travel to the end of human history, not knowing whether to save the world or see it burn. Nikola Tesla told his adoptive son Leonid that the three represented the branches of time: what is, what has been before and what will be. Embarking on the Human Machine, they went into the future facing three scenarios where they would clash with Isaac Newton and the Star Child.; In all three scenarios, the three brothers perished in the fight with Newton and the Star Child.

+Transportation: The goddesses are capable of teleportation - both through the mage's magic and Knull's power.
+Notes: In the director's cut of Silver Surfer: Black Vol 1 1, Donny Cates' script notes that while the goddesses have symbiotes, they should look as dissimilar from Venom as possible.
+History:
+At some point, a trio of goddesses from a now long-forgotten pantheon or pantheons were attacked by the dark god Knull. Rather than kill them, Knull chose to forcibly recruit them into his Hive by infecting them with his living abyss.; The trio were stationed on a planet Knull had conquered and tasked with guarding a portal from that planet to the Symbiote Throneworld. When the Silver Surfer - displaced in time from billions of years in the future - arrived on the planet seeking aid, the three goddesses demanded that he leave - stating that his Power Cosmic was too bright. When the Silver Surfer did not heed their warning, the three goddesses attacked him and nearly succeeded in killing or infecting him with living abyss, but he conjured a star that burned away the living abyss cocooning the planet and separated them from their symbiotes - knocking them unconscious.; Impressed by the Silver Surfer's power, Knull dragged him through the portal to the Symbiote Throneworld and tried to claim him for the Hive, but the Surfer was freed by Ego the Living Planet. Infuriated, Knull summoned the sentries to the Throneworld; and when they offered to hunt down the Surfer for him, Knull set off to do so himself and tasked them with guarding his throne-room.; It is unknown what happened to these goddesses following the symbiotes rebelling against and imprisoning Knull.

+Base of operations: Manhattan, New York City, New York, USA
+Equipment: Smart Gauntlets: Robot gloves invented by the Prowler that allowed the Last Avengers to adhere to and crawl upon vertical surfaces.
+History:
+The Last Avengers were a group of heroes who kept fighting the good fight after the V-Day, event in which a dark magic called V-Wave transformed most of the world population into vampires. The team consisted of Citizen V, formerly the mutant hero known as Nightcrawler, now a human due to the effects of the V-Wave; the Prowler, one of the billions of humans converted into vampires during V-Day; and Silver Sable, still a human being.; In the second anniversary of V-Day, Citizen V rescued Amadeus Cho from Blade and took him to the Last Avengers' hideout. There, Amadeus said he had encrypted a cure for vampirism for the Vampire King of New York City, the person whom he had been working for since the day he became a vampire. Hoping they could use this cure to restore the world as it was before the V-Wave, Citizen V and his teammates convinced Amadeus to help them get inside Fisk Tower Zero to find it.; Amadeus instructed the trio to access the sub-basement of the building through the sewers, and use the shaft of the broken elevator there to make their way up to the penthouse. In the meantime, he would try to distract the King and his henchmen. However, the King was already suspecting Amadeus would return and try to do something against him, so he had his men set an ambush in the new elevator he bought to replace the broken one. Silver Sable sacrificed herself to allow her teammates to survive the trap, apparently falling to her death at the bottom of the elevator shaft as she shot as many of the King's men as possible. The Prowler died soon afterwards, falling victim to the aerosolized silver Blade used to gas the vampires in the building.; Upon arriving at the top floor, Citizen V intercepted Blade as he was about to get to Amadeus. Because Amadeus told him earlier that Blade was possibly possessed by La Magra, Citizen V tried to convince him to fight the Blood Demon while they fought. Since Blade wasn't really possessed by La Magra, Citizen V's pleas fell on deaf ears and he was stabbed through the heart by the Daywalker, dying shortly thereafter. With the death of all of its members, the team came to an end.

Though the Starseed was a benevolent entity, both the Werewolf by Night and Morbius the Living Vampire, overcome by their monstrous hungers, attacked it. The Ghost Rider and the Man-Thing both attempted to intervene, but Starseed was unable to overcome his fear of the Man-Thing and suffered severe burns at its touch. The dying Starseed attempted to cure the Legion of their monstrous, forms but was too weak and died a little bit later.; Tired of fighting and disappointed in their actions, the team split up. Though they hardly ever acknowledged themselves as a team in the first place, the Legion of Monsters (minus the Ghost Rider) reunited. This incarnation included Morbius, the Werewolf, the Man-Thing, and new members the Living Mummy and the Manphibian.; They vowed to protect monsters that were hunted down to be killed.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: None. The Legion of the Unliving is only active for short periods at a time and are usually only active in an area where they're directly engaging their enemies (usually the Avengers).
+Notes: The lineups of the Legion have been the subject of debate, since not all of the characters listed as dead have actually been deceased at the time of their inclusion, or stayed deceased. Some, as with Bucky Barnes and Count Nefaria, were found later to not have been dead, while others returned to life as in the cases of Terrax, Dracula, and Drax the Destroyer. One character, Iron Man 2020, was not only not deceased at the time of inclusion, hadn't even technically been born yet.
+Trivia: When he appeared as a member of Immortus' Legion, Toro claimed he had been the actual Human Torch that had been summoned by Kang, although this conflicts with the display of knowledge on the Vision's synthezoid design that the Torch shared.; Oort is implied to be a villain that Quicksilver will battle in the future, an interesting explanation for a new character created as Quicksilver had no personal rogues gallery to speak of.; The appearance of Left-Winger and Right-Winger led USAgent to a traumatic episode as he believed both of them to be alive, and that the two Legionnaires were imposters meant to unnerve him. The Agent had been told the duo -- who had formerly been friends and partners with him -- had survived an explosion he had left them to suffer after they'd indirectly caused the deaths of his parents. The Wingers had survived due to their physical enhancements, but nevertheless had been hopelessly crippled, resulting in both committing suicide. The USAgent did not learn the truth until after he'd returned from Limbo and sought to check on the current state of his former friends, leading to a traumatic episode for him.
+History:
+The Legion of the Unliving was initially formed by Kang the Conqueror and his alternate self, Immortus. They extracted beings from their home time periods or they resurrected them, intending for their presence to poise a psychological offensive either due to their emotional ties to their opponents or simply the suggested supernatural nature of their existence. The group would later be recreated by the Grandmaster, and later by the Grim Reaper.; The first Legion was created by Kang after he and yet another of his alternate selves, Rama-Tut, was rescued from the void of time by Immortus. Entrapping both of them, Kang used Immortus' devices in conjunction with the mercurial nature of the realm of Limbo to pull super-powered beings out of time shortly before their destined deaths; Baron Zemo, the Frankenstein Monster, Midnight, the Flying Dutchman's Ghost, the original Human Torch, and Wonder Man. Dubbing this group of people the Legion of the Unliving, as they were all at least supposedly dead by the time he choice to attack his enemies, Kang had them fight against the Avengers, who were also brought to Limbo. Despite deaths on both sides of the conflict, the Legion was defeated and Kang fled back into the void of time to escape capture, leaving Immortus free to regain control of Limbo. Restoring all participants back to their original state, Immortus had the Avengers stay behind to explore the shared natures of the Torch and the Vision while the Legionnaires were returned to their origin points to face their respective destinies.; Immortus would later create his own team, by then the third iteration of the Legion of the Unliving, in Limbo to face off against the West Coast Avengers. Wishing to use deceased enemies of the assembled Avengers, Immortus called upon the villainous modern Black Knight, the Grim Reaper, Iron Man 2020, the Left-Winger and Right-Winger, Oort the Living Comet, the Swordsman, and the original Torch's old sidekick, Toro. This group was mostly meant as a distraction to keep the Avengers busy while Immortus concentrated on his intentions to transform the Scarlet Witch into a living power conduit by which to increase his control over time, and were believed all to be simulacra so many of the present heroes resorted to lethal tactics to defeat them. This time, Immortus had the Legionnaires vanish once he felt they were no longer necessary, perhaps too soon as he was ultimately defeated and suffered the fate he had intended for the Witch.

+Created by: Robert Kirkman; Paco Medina
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Banded together by chance to battle a time-travelling villain who had killed all the other superheroes in their time.
+Reality: Earth-6215
+Notes: The team does not have an official name, though Reed Richards and Speeball both called them 'the Avengers', which Darkhawk rapidly denied each time. The title of the storyline implies they're unofficially the "League of Losers:" a who's who of second- and third-string Marvel characters, they were also offhandedly referred to as such by Chronok without their knowledge.
+History:
+The time-travelling villain Chronok travelled with his army to present-day Earth and used his extensive knowledge of Earth's Greatest Heroes to hunt them down and wipe them out. The only ones who managed to survive were those few obscure heroes who had not done enough to appear in the historical records Chronok used. Speedball managed to steal Chronok's time-travelling device, and the team travelled to the future, just prior to Chronok's theft of the device from Gravity/Reed Richards' secret base, and prevented him from stealing it.; In doing so, they created a divergent timeline in which they stayed in the future, while their Earth-2992 counterparts all lived on because of their heroism. Notably, this divergent reality established romantic relationships between Chris Powell (Darkhawk) and Tandy Bowen (Dagger), as well as Greg Willis (Gravity) and Laura Kinney (X-23).

+History:
+Not much is known about the Legion of the Doomed; they are demonic creatures that come from a fiery realm. In their first and only recorded appearance, one of their members appeared before Ella Waltin, leaving her a child for her to care for. While she agreed to do so, the child's strange eyes and adult sounding voice unnerved her. This led to a call to Dr. Jack Castle, secretly the costumed hero known as Fiery Mask. Castle found the child's strange voice suspicious as well.; Soon, a series of bizarre and violent murders happened across the city, prompting Fiery Mask to investigate. What he would find was be a demonic creature. Following it as it went through the city, he tracked it back to the Waltin home. There, Fiery Mask was be horrified to watch as the small child suddenly transformed into the creature he had been tracking. Attempting to stop its next nightly murder spree, Fiery Mask failed to stop it from killing two new victims. Attacking it, the creature attempted to teleport away, taking Fiery Mask to his realm with him.; Attacked by two winged demons, the hero easily defeated them. Suddenly a massive demonic creature -- presumably their leader -- rose from the flames and banished Fiery Mask from the realm. Fiery Mask woke up in his office in his civilian guise wondering if the whole experience happened. Checking the morning paper, he saw that the string of murders mysteriously stopped and that their last victim was Ella Waltin's husband Ab.; The purpose of the Legion's murder spree and their use of Ella Walton remains unrevealed.

It consisted of various men trained to fight and equipment and possibly funding provided by a millionaire named Morgan.; Betty called the group into action when she would receive a distress call from Luther Robinson. Robinson and his female companion Lynne Harris were virtual prisoners in Atlantis by the Sub-Mariner who had them both modified to breath underwater and was going to force Lynn to marry him. Betty went on a furlough of her police duties to gather the Legion, calling favors with munitions providers and Morgan to man an expedition to the Antarctic location of Atlantis.; Travelling out by armed yachts, they attacked Atlantis with aircraft and ground troops armed with flamethrowers. With Namor held at bay, Betty freed Luther and Lynne and tricked Namor into following a decoy plane, allowing the Legion to escape and their mission accomplished.; The Legion was not gathered again since, likely its members (with the exception of Betty) were drafted into military service when America officially entered the war.

+Base of operations: New York City, New York
+Equipment: When having to deal with the Human Torch and Toro, the Legion obtained a special glue that not only doused the two heroes flames, but also glued them into position. Each member carried a pair of dice which each number carved out in the shape of a hole. Unknown to all except Haskell, these dice were weighted so that someone with the proper skill could roll whatever they wanted.
+Weapons: Most of the Legion members were armed with pistols.
+History:
+The Legion of Despair was formed by a greedy millionaire named Haskell who wished to commit crimes to obtain wealth but did not wish to get caught. He put an ad in the classifieds of the Star Newspaper offering an opportunity of a lifetime, attracting many of New York's downtrodden. Haskell hired five men from these interviews to be part of his Legion of Despair. Each one was willing to do whatever it took to pull off a crime, even if it meant their own deaths. They would dole out responsibilities by rolling a pair of dice. Unknown to all, Haskell had rigged these dice so that the odds were always in his favor and others would end up doing his dirty work for him.; The first heist of the Legion of Despair was the Park Hotel. As three of their members fled from the scene, they were spotted by the Human Torch and Toro who gave chase. In order to escape with the loot, two of the Legion members killed themselves to slow down the Torch and Toro until one of their numbers was able to escape. Searing one of the deceased pockets, the Torch found a pair of dice. After investigating who might have bought the dice and turning up nothing, the Torch had a fake story planted in the paper. This prompted Haskell to send his men to kidnap Toro as he was leaving school for the day.; The Legion then sent a note to the Human Torch demanding a $50,000 ransom in exchange for Toro's return home. The Torch confronted the crooks without the money but was soon incapacitated in a special fire-retardant glue. As the Legion members rolled dice to determine who was going to kill the Torch, the Torch managed to revive his powers and round up the crooks. Before being taken away by the authorities, the Human Torch showed Haskell's minions how Haskell used a rigged dice to get them to do his dirty work.

+History:
+The League of Crime was a quartet of criminals that were gathered by master hypnotist and professor of psychology Remu the Great in 1941. Their members included expert gunman Nails Swigland, pro-wrestler Crusher Collins, and Pierre La Verne, sword fighter extraordinaire. They committed a series of very successful crimes working together. However, this union would soon fall apart thanks to the Challenger and Remu's own greed.; After a number of successful hauls, Remu demanded that he get paid half of the stolen wealth while the other half was split between his three companions. When the others protested this, Remu used his hypnotic powers to make them agree with everything he told them. He then sent out Nails on his own to commit another robbery. By this time, the Challenger was on the case for the police to capture the League. Tricking Nails into attempting to rob him, the Challenger bested him in a gun fight and turned him over to the authorities.; Unaware of this, Remu sent Crusher on another mission to rob someone, and he too was defeated by the Challenger. Learning the location of the League's hideout from Crusher, the Challenger then crashed the place and dueled one-on-one with Pierre in a sword fight. Remu attempted to use his hypnotic powers to trip up the Challenger, but the hero tossed the hypnotist into his opponent knocking both men out. The Challenger turned them over to the authorities.; The fate of each individual member of the League of Crime is unknown, however it is highly unlikely they formed together again.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Weapons: Each member of the League wore a metal helmet with a sharp point on the end fashioned to look like the horn of the mythical unicorn. Hargraves wore a lifelike mask that gave him Asian features that also had a similar horn attached to it. They also occasionally carried hand axes.
+History:
+The League of Unicorns were a group of Asian terrorists who were active sometime prior to America's entry into World War II. They were defeated and disbanded by a king of an undisclosed Chinese territory. After the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor and America's entry into the war, railroad owner Burton J. Hargraves saw an opportunity to gain power. Noting that those who held power in the east would get control of the lucrative market, he posed as an Asian man named Zong and reformed the League of Unicorns. Under the false pretense of wishing to ruin relations between the United States and China so that the "old rulers" could take over, Hargraves ordered the his minions to assassinate visiting Prince Tsai Hoon and his wife Princess Yana Hoon. The targets were chosen due to the fact that it was Tsai Hoon's father who took down the League of Unicorns in the past.; When an Chinese-American whose family had connections to Prince Tsai Hoon learned of this plot while the two royals were on a good-will tour of America, he was targeted by the League. Their attack on the man happened in front of Private Steve Rogers and military mascot Bucky Barnes who stopped the attempt as Captain America and Bucky. Although they failed to stop the League from mortally wounding the man, their victim told Cap and Bucky about the plot.; When the League of Unicorns attempted to derail the royals' train at the Black River rail bridge while they were on their way to Lee City, Captain America and Bucky foiled this plot. King Unicorn Zong sent a message warning the royals and Captain America that their deaths were now insured. When the royals arrived in Lee City with Captain America and Bucky as their bodyguards, they were greeted by the mayor and Burton Hargraves. The League of Unicorns attacked again, this time taking Princess Yana and Bucky hostage. Zong sent Prince Tsai Hoon a message demanding that he met them in an abandoned mansion alone. Captain America went instead, disguised as Tsai Hoon and attacked the League. Cap broke their lantern, engulfing the room with darkness and allowing him to hide in the rafter. Thinking that Cap had fled, the League returned to where the prisoners were kept -- in an old abandoned subway tunnel, unaware that they were leading Captain America to their hideout.; There, Captain America battled the League again, freeing Bucky, but Zong escaped with Princess Yana. Hiding the princess off in another room, "Zong" would remove his disguise and as Hargrove pretended like he was trying to stop the Unicorns as well through his own private investigation. Captain America sent Bucky to get the authorities, leaving him along with Burton. As the two searched the tunnels for Yana, Burton slipped away and changed back into Zong and began taunting Captain America. Cap chased him to another secret room where Cap stopped Zong from dousing Yana with a strong acid. Defeating Zong in battle, Cap made short work of the rest of the League with the aid of Bucky and the arriving police. With the battle over, Captain America unmasked Hargrove, and he explained how he manipulated the League of Unicorns for his own ends.

Trying to escape on a roller coaster, the crooks were easily captured by the yellow speedster. They quickly revealed who their employer was, and the Whizzer then brought Balew to justice, ending the League of Petty Crime one and for all.

+History:
+Doctor Merkel was a genius doctor who went insane and was locked away in an asylum for reasons unknown. Escaping confinement, he managed to gather loyal scientists to assist him on his revenge scheme against the city that locked him away. Through an undefined scientific method, he and his colleagues managed to resurrect the dead into a horde of loyal zombies.; Part of his ultimate revenge scheme involved murdering the mayor of the city and then using his zombies bodies to contaminate the city water supply. Merkel commanded this horde of zombies wearing a costume that made him appear to be one of the undead as well. This plot was thwarted by the Angel who managed to prevent the assassination attempt against the mayor and followed the attacking zombies back to Merkel's hideout.; Attacking the horde of zombies, the Angel was captured and locked in a dungeon. Breaking free, the hero used a bottle of chlorine against the zombies sent to contaminate the city water supply, dissolving their bodies. Returning to the house where the creatures were created, the Angel beat two doctors into submission and followed their recently reanimated corpse to a graveyard where he found more zombies digging up graves. Beating these zombies into submission, the Angel piled their bodies into a mass grave and set them ablaze.; Returning to the lab, he clashed with Merkel, spilling chemicals on the mad scientist melting away his mask and revealing his identity. The spilled chemicals sparked a blaze which burned down the lab, killing Merkel and his assistants and presumably destroying any remaining zombies, Merkel's method of reanimating the dead was likely lost to the blaze as well.

+The League of Hate were a group of Nazi spies who were active during World War II. They were hand picked by Adolf Hitler to try and destroy the American way of life. To this end, he had these minions purposely maimed and wounded, then had them assume the identities of killed American soldiers and sent back to America.; From there, they began sowing dissent among Americans, spreading racist ideals by smashing headstones of soldiers, wrecking stores, and leaving signs protesting "foreigners" for ruining America. Their covers as wounded American soldiers gave them much credibility.; However one group operating in the town of Middleville found opposition from the local mayor and a true American soldier who was blinded in combat. To stop their interference, they murdered the blind soldier and framed the mayor for the murder. However the timely arrival of Captain America and Bucky (invited to town by the late soldier) investigated the murder and exposed the Nazi spy operation. Before the spies in Middleville could escape, Captain America and Bucky captured them. With the FBI informed of the spies activities, their cells across the country were dismantled.

They then went to a nearby town and murdered the local jailer and freed all the prisoners forming a gang together. The Legion of the Dead then went from town to town, robbing them and burning the place flat. They used the superstitions of the locals to promote fear of the gang and maintain the ruse that they were the undead who had returned from the grave.; Only one man was brave enough to face them, Red Larabee, also known as the Gunhawk. Red tracked down the Legion to their hideout, a tunnel dug out beneath the cemetery where the outlaws the Legion took their names from were buried. There the Gunhawk mowed down the entire gang. Later calling in the army, they searched the bodies and realized that the leaders of the Legion of the Dead were real live criminals wearing clever masks.

+In the March of 1836, General Antonio López de Santa Anna led the Mexican army into Texas and participated in what became the legendary Battle of the Alamo. Santa Anna and his men were wiped out in the battle.; Many years later, a group of Mexican outlaws decided to play into people's superstitions by dressing themselves to appear like the they were Santa Anna's army risen from the grave. This so-called Legion of the Dead then rode across the Rio Grande into the state of Texas where they pillaged towns and burned them flat. The locals, still remembering the great battle at the Alamo were so fearful of these apparent undead soldiers that they offered no resistance.; Eventually the governor of Texas called on the US Army to deal with the Legion. As it happened, the army had just recently captured the famous outlaw Kid Colt. The colonel of the troop had been saved by Kid Colt a few years earlier and owed him a debt. When Kid Colt agreed to deal with the Legion of the Dead, the colonel then staged an escape so that Kid Colt could get away without ruining his career with a court martial.; With the help of his friend Miguel, Kid Colt learned the location of the Rio where the Legion crossed over into the United States. There he waited for the Legion's nightly raid and followed after them, picking off the stragglers in the group from behind. When the US Army clashed with the Legion of the Dead, they were forced into a bottleneck and trapped. Kid Colt then rode in from behind, adding the additional fire power needed to force the Legion to try and flee. However, all those who attempted to flee -- including the Legion's leader -- fell under the roar of Kid Colt's guns. In killing their leader, Kid Colt soon realized that these men were not the undead army of General Santa Anna, but outlaw impostors posing as the legendary soldiers.

They then ambushed the soldiers at the fort, murdering them all and then set the place ablaze before the masked hero known as the Black Rider could search the fort for clues at how the soldiers were murdered and how the prisoners escaped.; Covering themselves in a powder that made them appear as ghost they then began attacking towns across the state, looting and pillaging wherever they went, earning the name the Legion of the Dead. Their downfall came when a gold panner found the King's Ransom Mine. The Legion tries to murder him but the old man managed to escape, although he was mortally wounded.

+Base of operations: Ten Realms
+History:
+===Formation and first mission===; The League of Realms was a team uniting warriors of the Nine Realms in order to hunt down Malekith the Accursed while he was slaughtering his own people across the Nine Realms. That team was assembled as Thor desired to lead an army of Asgardians, but such action was considered an illegal incursion on the Realms. The team consisted of Screwbeard of Nidavellir, Ud the Troll and Oggy of Jotunheim. Lady Waziria of Svartalfheim, a victim of Malekith's rampage, joined the League, despite disapproval from almost every member.; The League was first sent in Nidavellir to protect the Dark Elves' Queen in exile, Alflyse, but their inability to work together properly led to their inability to defend her.; ===Alfheim===; The League clashed with Malekith's forces multiple times, eventually managing to save the refugees in Alfheim, slaughtering Dark Elves refugees, but once again Malekith slipped away.; In order to prevent his League from falling apart in front of him, Thor had the group headed to the nearest tavern, where Thor and Ogg engaged in a drinking contest, while the others wagered on the winner, narrowly drinking the giant under the table.; ===Jotunheim and Vanaheim===; The next day, the League headed to Jotunheim where Malekith was hunting down a group of Elves who hided among the Mountain Giants. Oggy was directly targeted by the Accursed, who leaped into his mouth and brutally slashed apart the Giant's brain with his blades, felling him.; Having gone to the Frost Giants for help, Malekith was out of reach of the League of Realms. Enraged, the others had to hold Thor back to prevent an incursion inside the Frost Giants territory and a larger conflict. After burying Oggy, the League went to Vanaheim and found more Elves dead, slain fighting amongst themselves. Thor realized that there was to be a traitor in their midst.; Thor cast a spell and, accusing Ud of being the traitor, seemingly executed him against Honeyshot and the League's advices. Ud was transported elsewhere in Vanaheim with a note addressed to the League pinned to his backside and leading them to the Midgard location of the Dark Elves refugees.; That rash action caused the league to split, with only Lady Waziria as companion to Thor. While the two of them headed to Midgard to find the Council of the Unhallowed, the Dark Elf ruling council in hiding, and urged them to unite against Malekith, the rest of the League found Ud, as confused as them.; ===Final Battle on Midgard===; Back in Midgard, Thor accused Waziria of being a traitor as Malekith had followed them to the butcher shop. Enraged, she blasted Thor with a mystical bolt, resulting in a strange creature wrenching itself from inside of Thor, revealing that Malekith had been ahead of the League all along by bugging Thor. The League then showed up with Ud. As Screwbeard was about to killed by his own dynamite stabbed into his hand, Ud saved him by cutting his hand off. Alongside with Thor and the Dark Elves, they took down Malekith, but the fight was stopped by the Council decision to have him their king.; During the meeting on Asgardia, Honeyshot pressed the issue of Malekith prison sentence, and later came to comfort the disgusted Thor, recalling him the fact that they had together built the first step of brotherhood and peace between the Realms.; ===War of the Realms===; When the Congress of Worlds failed to intervene on Alfheim's behalf when they were invaded and conquered by the forces of the Dark Elves, the League of Realms was reformed to act without the Congress' support in order to invade Alfheim and free their queen Queen Aelsa Featherwine from captivity. Old League members Honeyshot, Ud and Screwbeard were joined by the new Thor, Midgardian Roz Solomon, Sif, the Vanir Ro Bloodroot, Mountain Giant Titanya Vaetilda Vinnsuvius and Angela.; Their mission proved to be a failure, as the Queen Aelsa they attempted to rescue ended up being an illusion cast by the forces of Malekith, who quickly managed to surround the League of Realms.; Thor later placed Spider-Man in charge of the League of the Realms, despite his protests that he wasn't cut out for the job, and sent them to Africa to recruit the commander of the Angels, Fernande, who was opposed to the senseless bloodshed of the War of the Realms. Spider-Man's witty banter and aversion to killing annoyed and outraged the other members of the team, with Screwbeard almost killing him when he tried to stop them from slaughtering the Angels. However, Spider-Man was able to sway Fernande into calling an end to the battle and joining the team using empathy and diplomacy. Following Malekith's defeat and the end of the War of the Realms, Balder joined the League of Realms.

+Base of operations: Mephisto's Realm
+History:
+Mephisto sent his agent Bitterhorn out to Earth to recruit an army of super-villains to battle the Beyonder. Bitterhorn began by making deals with the Juggernaut, Electro, Baron Mordo, Absorbing Man and Titania. With each deal made, a handshake was made marking each villain connecting them to the Beyonder's bane.; As Mephisto watched from his realm, he explained to Death that if only one of the villains managed to make contact with the Beyonder it would complete the circuit with the Beyondersbane machine unleashing its power. He explained that the force of the power would be enough to not only destroy the Beyonder but a great part of the universe.; As he explained this, he showed that the universes many cosmic beings were behind him and that the Beyonderbane was being operated from within by Eternity itself. He explained that Eternity was willing to amputate part of itself to end the potential menace of the Beyonder from destroying its existence. Soon, Bitterhorn reported that the collection of 99 super-villains had been completed and that they were ready to strike at any moment.; Mephisto has gathered his Legion Accursed and was about to unleash them at a crucial moment when he spied on the Beyonder considering to leave, to get away from the throng of people who had invaded his island. Seeing this as a determent to his plan, he came up with a means to keep the Beyonder in one spot so that he could attack.; Appearing before the Thing, who had just woken from a nightmare, Mephisto used illusions to trick the Thing into signing a contract to go after and kill the Beyonder, providing him with enhanced strength to do so. Thing signed it and dove into the ocean to swim to the Beyonder, unaware that he had played into Mephisto's plans and would forfeit his soul in the process.; Just before the Beyonder could depart, the Thing arrived ready to beat him to death. Before he could, Ed tried to stop him. When Ed told the Thing he was a hero, the Thing became confused and he began to lose his nerve.; This provided an ample distraction for Mephisto to unleash his Legion Accursed on the island. As the creatures rushed toward the Beyonder, the powers that be waited in anticipation to see how things would play out. While the Thing struggled with his morality as a hero and his desire to kill the Beyonder, the Beyonder considered letting the attack happen or simply escaping. It's finally the Thing who decided that despite the fact that he hates the Beyonder, killing him was against his code as a hero and began fighting off the villains who came slay him.; With the enhanced strength provided to him by Mephisto, the Thing easily trounced all the villains. Horrified by this turn of events, Mephisto destroyed the contract he forced the Thing to sign to reverse the power he gave him, willing to give up the hero's soul to succeed in destroying the Beyonder. Even reduced to his regular strength, the Thing managed to prevent the last villain, the seemingly unstoppable Juggernaut from touching the Beyonder.; With all the villains defeated, they were teleported back to where they were before Mephisto's scheme began as the Beyondersbane reached critical mass and exploded. This was a great defeat for Mephisto, who was furious. When Death abandoned him, his grief caused the tortured souls in his realm to experience a moment of joy, and Eternity departed from Mephisto's realm as well.

Black Bolt overpowered him before he could do so.; Maximus succeeded in bringing about his second coup some months later. Drugging the Royal Family with will-deadening "hypno-potions," Maximus wrested the crown from Black Bolt and had the Royal Family imprisoned.Before he could activate his Hypno-Gun, which he believed would make all mankind surrender to his will, the Royal Family escaped and subdued him.

However, and he and his allies were forced to flee again.; The Silver Surfer finds himself attacked by the evil Inhumans led by Maximus, who succeeded in making the Surfer believe that the Inhumans as a whole are responsible for the attack.; Later Leonus, Falcona and Stallior were brainwashed by Maximus into being members of the Crimson Cadre who were also under his thrall at this time.

+History:
+The Legion of the Unliving was brought together by Dracula with the purpose to feign an uprising in his kingdom. They were led by Dracula's son Xarus, adopting the identity of the mysterious Shadow Colonel. Under their pretense of contesting Dracula's throne, the Legion of the Unliving massacred other vampires, with the objective to weed out the weakest members of the vampire race.; During an attack on Castle Dracula, the Avengers assisted the Romanians in the surroundings of the castle, who were threatened by fleeing vampires. The Shadow Colonel turned himself over to the Avengers and was taken to the Avengers Mountain. In addition to goading the Avengers' newest recruit, the vampire-hunter Blade, the Shadow Colonel only surrendered himself over so that Sarge could infiltrate the base and take possession of the Ghost Rider with a demonic recitation. With the Ghost Rider in their ranks, the Shadow Colonel and Sarge had him scold them away on his Hell Charger. In the meantime, Dracula had used the attack on his castle as a pretext to seek political asylum in Russia, presenting himself with a weak and feeble appearance. He offered all his knowledge in exchange for a piece of land where he could purportedly spend his final days in peace.; The Legion of the Unliving continued their crusade in Madripoor, where they were intercepted by the Avengers. The vampires managed to escape while the heroes were occupied confronting and ultimately freeing the Ghost Rider from Sarge's influence. The Legion of the Unliving fled to Russia, where they turned all the prisoners of the Sol-Iletsk Federal Penal Colony No. 9 into vampires to build up the ranks of the new kingdom. The Avengers came to stop the vampire outbreak, and Blade wounded Xarus during battle, severing his right leg and right arm before eventually decapitating him. The Legion of the Unliving escaped with Xarus' body and head, since he had remained responsive after being decapitated. Sarge was left behind, having been defeated by the Avengers' own canine ally, Thori. The Legion met with Dracula in Chernobyl, which was the territory the Russian government had granted him, and where he intended to set up his new domain.

+History:

+Base of operations: None. The Legion of the Unliving is only active for short periods at a time and are usually only active in an area where they're directly engaging their enemies (usually the Avengers).
+Notes: The lineups of the Legion have been the subject of debate, since not all of the characters listed as dead have actually been deceased at the time of their inclusion, or stayed deceased. Some, as with Bucky Barnes and Count Nefaria, were found later to not have been dead, while others returned to life as in the cases of Terrax, Dracula, and Drax the Destroyer. One character, Iron Man 2020, was not only not deceased at the time of inclusion, hadn't even technically been born yet.; Handbook entries for Grim Reaper, Star Stalker and others note these were not the original characters seen, but Zombie Facsimiles
+History:
+Himself at one point one of the drafted Legionnaires, the Grim Reaper went on to create his own Legion of the Unliving, the fourth to exist and first to be created by him. Comprised of zombified facsimiles of deceased (at least at the time) foes of super-heroes and other powerful beings, he used the villainous modern Black Knight, Baron Heinrich Zemo, one of the Red Guardians, Count Nefaria, Inferno, Nebulon the Celestial Man, the Star Stalker, Necrodamus, and the demonic Khufor (formerly the pharaoh Amenhotep). At that point in time an undead being with necromantic abilities, the Reaper created his Legion from the victims of a plane crash with aid from Lloigoroth, a Lovecraftian demonic entity, and lured his enemies the Avengers into a Hell-like reality in which to battle them. The heroes were facing defeat by their gruesome opponents when they were rescued by the Vision, who confronted the Grim Reaper and caused him to face a horrific epiphany, that he had committed suicide and the Avengers were innocent of his death. This cost the Reaper his control over the Legionnaires, who regained some degree of their independent will and turned against him. Lloigoroth then appeared and apparently destroyed the Reaper for failing to complete their bargain, after which the accursed crash victims then peacefully returned to their rest.; Some time later, following their own apparent return from death following the Onslaught event, the Avengers were confronted by the Grim Reaper's all-new Legion of the Unliving. Again intent on seeking vengeance against not just his enemies by the entire world, the Reaper this time eschewed dead villains for perished members of the Avengers, trusting in the inherent psychological advantage they would have. Thus, the Avengers were forced to battle against zombified teammates and friends: Captain Mar-Vell, Doctor Druid, Hellcat, Mockingbird, Swordsman, Thunderstrike, and Wonder Man. Due to his ionic energy-mutated status, Wonder Man had actually been caught in a state between life and death, and had been used as a conduit for the Reaper to not only return to Earth, but to draw in supernatural power to create and control his Legion.; The Grim Reaper's team defeated the assembled Avengers, then sought out to kill the Scarlet Witch as well, only to be freed thanks to her awakening control over chaotic magic. Restored to a more lifelike appearance, the Legionnaires turned on the Grim Reaper and freed their former teammates while the Scarlet Witch used her magic to completely pull Wonder Man back into the living world. With the Reaper's link to the afterlife broken, the Legionnaires all vanished, while the Reaper was also pulled back to the land of the living by Wonder Man and the Witch, fully restoring him to life but also leaving him subject to arrest by the authorities.

+Trivia: The Whizzer recalls how he and Namor fought side-by-side in the Liberty Legion in Avengers #156 page 6 panel 6
+History:
+In 1942, the Red Skull had kidnapped and brainwashed the Invaders, with only Bucky evading capture. Bucky, realizing the danger that a German-friendly Invaders posed, sent out a call for help to all the other available superheroes. Several of them came forward to help him: the Patriot, the Whizzer, Miss America, the Red Raven, the Thin Man, the Blue Diamond, and Jack Frost.; This group called themselves the Liberty Legion and successfully freed the Invaders from the Red Skull's grasp. After the Skull's defeat, the Liberty Legion decided to remain together and act as the homefront equivalent of the Invaders.; They continued to fight various threats in the U.S. during the War, from crime to German sympathizers, and even encountered a time-traveling Thing at one point. The Invaders and the Legion joined forces again to fight the Iron Cross, after which the Whizzer and Miss America left the Legion to join the Invaders.; After World War II ended, the Legion and the Invaders disbanded, with some of the members of each group coming together to form the All-Winners Squad.

+Liberators (Earth-1610)
+Kind: team
+Page: Liberators (Earth-1610)
+Full name: Liberators
+First appearance: Ultimates 2 Vol 1 9
+Created by: Mark Millar; Bryan Hitch
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-1610
+Base of operations: Global
+Notes: Despite all of the Liberators being relatively powerful themselves, all of them except Loki and possibly Schizoid Man seem to be nothing but cheap imitations of the Ultimate with each being severely out classed by their respective counterparts.
+History:
+The Liberators were a multinational group of superpowered villains that invaded the United States of America. They had support, at least tacitly, from the governments of China, France, Iran, North Korea, Russia, and Syria. Various elements within those governments considered America a threat, but they could not hope to win a conventional war. Instead they put together a small but powerful strike force, which they could recruit, train, and deploy in secret. These "super troops" would occupy key cities and capture key personnel. To counter the American government's superpowered heroes (the Ultimates), the force included each country's version of a super soldier, a group they dubbed the Liberators, along with thousands of "foot soldiers" in battle suits that granted them flight and class three super-strength, but shortened their lifespan to one month.; The strike force through planning were able to severely weaken the Ultimates before the invasion even started. The Ultimates dropped Henry Pym from their roster, so out of revenge he contributed a set of Ultron robots to the strike force. The Hulk was thought to be executed after Bruce Banner was exposed as the Hulk. Loki through his powers over reality had convinced SHIELD that Captain America and Thor were traitors. The traitorous Black Widow gave many of SHIELD's secrets to the Liberators and arranged for the murder of the Barton family and the kidnapping of Hawkeye.; Their planning enabled them to succeed in the first days of the invasion. The invaders occupied key cities, bested the Ultimate Reserves, and made prisoners of the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, Spider-Man, the president, Quicksilver, and the Scarlet Witch. Only the Wasp remained at large.; The plan began to unravel when Hawkeye escaped and freed Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch. Iron Man learned that the Black Widow had betrayed the team and put her out of commission. The Wasp broke Captain America out of prison. The Liberators now had to do what the plan demanded: battle the Ultimates directly, on their own turf.; In a battle royale, the Liberators found themselves no match for their American counterparts. The Hulk killed the Abomination; Captain America defeating Schizoid Man and stabbing the Colonel with his own weapon; Iron Man vaporizing the Crimson Dynamo; Quicksilver disintegrating Hurricane; and the Wasp, after becoming a giant, stomps on Swarm. Perun later surrendered, making him the only survivor of the team. Loki attempted to use his powers to destroy the Ultimates and continue "World War III", but due to the intervention of Thor and his father Odin was himself defeated.; In the aftermath, China and Russia distanced themselves from having any links with the Liberators and stated of offering both aid to a war-torn America and a "full investigation" of the Liberators.; ==Liberators==; The Colonel (Iran) - Abdul al-Rahman was a thin and sickly 17-year-old Muslim boy from Iranian Azerbaijan who witnesses the Captain America led invasion of his country. Angered by these event volunteers for an experimental program and becomes the Middle Eastern version of Captain America, as well as the only other person to survive the Super-Soldier process. He is later killed by Captain America in battle, who uses the Colonel's own weapon to do so. However, his body was taken by S.H.I.E.L.D. and sent to Dr. Branklin.; Abomination (China) - Dr. Chang Lam, is the Chinese version of the Hulk. Abomination possesses supposedly greater strength but retains his genius intellect. He is light green and gigantic, but is bald, has pointed ears, scales on his shoulders, and a tail. The Abomination is later killed by the Hulk. The Hulk mocked his belief that his greater intellect made him more dangerous than the Hulk. Dr. Lam's strength is at a set level, while the Hulk's grows with his rage.; Crimson Dynamo (China) - Alex Su, is a Chinese analogue of Iron Man who has been fused with his Crimson Dynamo Armor and can fight independently or with his 50 giant-sized duplicates. He was killed by Iron Man shortly after abandoning the Colonel's orders and opening fire on American civilians.; Perun (Russia) - nicknamed a "Soviet Thor" who appears to have the same belt and vest that Thor wore and wields a hammer and a sickle with both hands. He is named after the Slavic thunder god Perun. He surrendered to the US Military after the deaths of the other Liberators, citing this fact as his reason for surrender. Perun later briefly joined Nick Fury's Avengers.; Hurricane (North Korea) - is an unnamed genetically and surgically enhanced woman with superhuman speed. The Korean version of Quicksilver. Hurricane boasted that she could out run Quicksilver, but provoked Quicksilver to such a point that he grabbed hold of her and showed the extent of his own power, tearing her body apart in the process.; Swarm (Syria) - Petra Laskov, is a mutated woman with the ability to control any insect, millions at a time. Petra Laskov was actually Georgian but worked for the Syrian government. It was believed she was killed by Janet Pym, but later resurfaced as part of Nick Fury's Avengers with the codename Red Wasp.; The Schizoid Man (France) - was an unnamed operative of a rogue arm of the French government. He was augmented with stem cells stolen from the mutant Jamie Madrox that give him the same ability to create duplicates of himself. Prior to his assignment to the Liberators, he is said to have single-handedly stopped riots in France. He was defeated by Captain America but was not killed.; Loki (Norway/Asgard) - The Asgardian God of Mischief and half-brother of Thor. Loki allied himself with the Liberators because he found the concept of World War III amusing, and as the ultimate work of mischief. He told the Colonel that since the Ultimates have their own Norse God, "it's only fair that [the Liberators] have one as well". When the Liberators got defeated, Loki unleashed his supernatural powers to summon an army of Asgardian monsters, such as trolls, giants and gargantuan wolves. This invasion force was defeated by the Ultimates and an army of Asgardian Viking warriors (summoned by Thor) before Thor banished Loki back to Asgard so he could be judged by Odin.

+Lightning Force (Earth-597)
+Kind: team
+Page: Lightning Force (Earth-597)
+Full name: Lightning Force
+Other aliases: Lightning Squad
+First appearance: Excalibur Vol 1 9
+Created by: Chris Claremont; Alan Davis
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-597
+Transportation: Reischrail England
+Notes: Excalibur member Rachel Summers observes that there is no Lightning Force counterpart of herself. The reason for this is never revealed. Possibly it is because she herself came from a different reality, Earth-811, than Earth-616 and was therefore something of an anomaly.
+History:
+Lightning Force is the Earth-597 counterpart of team Excalibur.; Lightning Force consists of team leader Hauptmann Englande, the Earth-597 version of Captain Britain, and Meggan, Shadowcat, Nightcrawler. The team member's powers are similar to their Earth-616 counterparts, but - as Nightcrawler observed after their first meeting - their characters appear to be somewhat perverted and twisted, emphasizing the negative and dark characteristics of each Excalibur member. In addition, Shadowcat appears to be a ghost and her phasing powers not only disrupt electronics, but human life as well.; Lightning Force operates in an alternate dimension where Nazi Germany won World War II. Charles Xavier had experimented on them before allow them to live and to serve the Reich.; Reichminister of Genetics Moira MacTaggert and her bodyguard Callisto were travelling to London by Reichsrail England when their train was accidentally abducted to Earth-616 dimension by Widget. Lightning Force was sent after them in order to rescue them and to take them back to the Führer.; First the team appeared at Excalibur Lighthouse where Shadowcat was ordered to kill Lockheed who was guarding the lighthouse when Excalibur was in New York during the Inferno Event. Lockheed survived, however. Lightning Force learned that Reichminister MacTaggert was held prisoner in the Tower of London and mounted an rescue attempt. The British government summoned Excalibur, who immediately returned from the X-Mansion where they had been examining Captain Britain's and Meggan's diminishing powers. Both teams battled each other and finally Lightning Force would be subdued and put on trial.; The jury decided that Lightning Force could not be called to account for their deeds they committed in the Earth-616 dimension and that they should be sent back to their own dimension - despite heavy protests from Kitty Pryde who was still traumatized by her tormented Earth-597 counterpart.; When Lighting Force, Reichminister MacTaggert, Callisto and the Reichsrail train were taken to a portal into their own dimension, Moira MacTaggert - afraid of a military invasion - threw a grenade into the portal just after the exchanged Earth-616 versions of Moira MacTaggert, Callisto and the train staff stepped back into their own dimension. The portal collapsed and Lightning Force, the train and Excalibur disappeared.; Later, when Earth-616 and Earth-597 were upon to merge, mixing the bodies and souls of each counterparts, Herr Xavier tried to contact the Lightning Force, feeling himself in danger but was unable to do it as the Excalibur were the dominants spirits in the Lightning Force's members' bodies.; During Mastermind's war against the Captain Britain Corps, Hauptmann Englande was captured by "Roma" and his Warpies Army, to find the localisation of the Excalibur's Sword. He was tortured and seemingly killed by the Cherubim Lump, who managed to extract the information directly in his head.

+Les Heroes de Paris (Earth-616)
+Kind: team

+Full name: Les Héros de Paris
+Other aliases: Les Heroes de Paris; The Heroes of Paris
+First appearance: Fantastic Four Vol 3 541
+Created by: J. Michael Straczynski; Mike McKone
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Paris, France
+Notes: Adamantine introduces himself to Ben Grimm as "Commander in Absentia" of the team, but never expands on the matter.; The team introduces themselves to Grimm in an underground lair near le Rose et la Plume (the Rose and Feather cafe). They also dine there, but there is no indication one way or another that this is their main base of operations.
+Trivia: Although the team name is shown to be "Les Heroes de Paris" in their first appearance in Fantastic Four Vol 3 541 (February, 2007), this is an editor's grammatical error as it does not properly interpret into French words. It was corrected as "Les Héros de Paris" in Scarlet Witch Vol 2 6 (May 4, 2016).; The team seems to share similarities with some DC's heroes.
+History:
+Eight members are known to belong to les Heroes de Paris.; The team leader, Adamantine, has somewhat poorly-defined powers, but seems to possess powers of flight and perhaps super-strength and durability (as well as a keen but mundane ability for disguise).; Comte de Nuit's father was murdered by thieves, and the caped "Night Count" has since sworn vengeance on all who prey on the helpless.; Anaïs, the exiled queen of a lost cat civilization in the Sahara, is able to command all felines from the smallest cat to the most vicious lion.; Detective Fantôme must wander the Earth as an avenging spirit, aiding others until he can solve the mystery of his own murder and achieve entrance into Heaven. At night he prowls the Louvre Museum, in search of secrets and mysteries.; Le Vent, the fastest man in all of Europe, can outrace a plane flying at Mach 4, but because he derives his powers from a sorcerer's curse, can never slow down to a normal speed.; La Lumière Bleue possesses the powers of flight, and a blue Light of Truth which emanates from his palm, revealing all secrets.; Le Cowboy -- the team's Parisian homage to the American west -- is an accomplished shootist and man of few words.; Finally, the armored Docteur Q, formerly one of the world's greatest scientists and weapon designers, is now dedicated to using his knowledge and advanced arsenal in pursuit of peace.; Nothing is recorded about the Heroes of Paris until they make contact with a visiting Thing to ask for his help. The Thing had come to France to avoid the moral and legal implications of the superhuman Civil War, and had just sat down at le Rose et la Plume cafe when an elaborate hidden mechanism lowered him to an underground lair where he met les Heroes de Paris. The team leader, Adamantine, who had been disguised as the street vendor who recommended the cafe, apologized for the deception, stating it was necessary to save precious time. Adamantine explained over lunch that the team could use his muscle in battling L'Empereur du Monde Souterrain. L'Empereur had assembled an army of rock creatures, whom he was prepared to order to tunnel directly under Paris, destroying the city as it collapsed. The Thing, moved by memories of "the good old days" when you knew who the heroes were and all they had to do was go beat the tar out a bad guy, agrees to help.; After battling past the rock creatures, le Vent uses his super-speed to hurl the Thing directly to l'Empereur's tunneler, where the ranting villain declares the city above, which gives nothing but pain, deserves to be destroyed for the hurt it has caused him. Grimm instantly recognizes woman troubles when he see them. He destroys the machine, creating a powerful explosion that triggers a cave in. The heroes excape, with Grimm carrying l'Empereur. No harm having been really done, they release l'Empereur (now just "René") to his estranged girlfriend Louise. Louise is so impressed by René's devotion, in fact, that she agrees to reconcile and marry him. As the heroes march off to dinner, the Thing feels that this might be beginning of a wonderful friendship.; Later, Anaïs and the Thing followed the trail on an Hydra base on Docteur Q's intel. After a quick battle, the terrorists were taken into custody by French Police officers. Anaïs also tried to romantically bound with Ben, but he refused, and soon go back to America.; At some point, Les Héros de Paris vanished, and with the Musketeers (the elite armored government unit) out of the country, Paris was short on super heroes to protect it.

+History:
+The Liberteens were formed as part of the 50-State Initiative as the Pennsylvanian team. They were based on the World War II team the Liberty Legion. Each member as a similar motif and power to a member of that team.; Their first mission was to take down a group calling themselves Ultimatum, led by the new Flag-Smasher, which was apparently funded by Hydra and whose aim was to destroy the Liberty Bell as a symbolic gesture. The Liberteens managed to defeat Ultimatum with little trouble with Ms. America taking down the Flag-Smasher by herself.; The Revolutionary was is in fact a Skrull infiltrator. He was involved in a plan to place a Skrull on every team in the Initiative. Eventually, the Skrull Kill Krew and a loosely organized band of Initiative members revealed the Revolutionary's true identity. They assisted Hope and Whiz Kid of the Liberteens in defeating him. Gravity dropped the diamond-skinned Hope on top of the Revolutionary and dramatically amplified her mass, crushing him to a bloody pulp. Hope stayed behind in Pennsylvania to help her wounded team members. Whiz Kid was later asked to join the Skrull Kill Krew in their search for the remaining Skrull sleeper agents among the other Initiative teams, but died saving the team by creating a tornado to suck away poisonous gas.; The team apparently disbanded at an unknown point in time as members 2-D, Hope, Iceberg, and Ms. America came together to form a new team called the Fantastix.

+Base of operations: Counter-Earth
+History:
+When Counter-Earth's Loki and Enchantress decided to band together in order to get revenge against the Avengers they began amassing a complex scheme to not only destroy their enemies, but take over the Earth as well.; The Enchantress believed that the Scarlet Witch was her daughter, and so wished to regain control of her as part of this scheme. To this end, Loki and the Enchantress incapacitated Wanda's mentor Agatha Harkness, trapping her essence in a tree, and then Amora -- posing as Agatha -- would coerce the Scarlet Witch into joining their cause.; The Enchantress formed a team of villains to battle the Avengers, dubbing them the Lethal Legion. Their members included Amora, the Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man, the Asgardian Executioner, and Henry Pym's robot Ultron-5. The group attacked the Avengers at their new Avengers Mansion headquarters, however they were easily be defeated. Ultron-5 was destroyed, while Wonder Man and the Executioner were captured and taken into SHIELD custody, while the Enchantress and Scarlet Witch escaped. Wonder Man and the Executioner were absorbed by Loki who had been absorbing all the Avenger's various foes and allies unique to Counter-Earth.; Amora and Loki later coerced Thor, Hawkeye and Hellcat into joining the group, the latter having her essence put into the Scarlet Witch to control her body. They attacked the remaining Avengers, however they were ultimately betrayed by Loki who absorbed all the gamma core's energy for himself. The remaining members of the Legion teamed with the Avengers in stopping Loki. Thor and Hellcat died in the battle which ultimately ended in Loki's defeat.; Of all the members of the Lethal Legion, only the fate of the Scarlet Witch is known, as she rejoined the Avengers and returned to her native Earth-616. While many of those absorbed by Loki were released upon his defeat, the ultimate fates of Wonder Man and the Executioner remain unrevealed. Likewise, the fates of the Enchantress and the remains of the destroyed Ultron-5.

+Trivia: The X-Men were first made aware of the Lights in X-Men: Second Coming Vol 1 2, the first Light appeared on panel in Uncanny X-Men Vol 1 526, worked as a team through much of Uncanny X-Men Vol 1 526-529 and Generation Hope Vol 1 1-4 , and they became an officially sanctioned X-Team with Cyclops' permission in Generation Hope Vol 1 5.; Many of The Lights come from the same geographic regions or nations as the All New, All Different X-Men team:; Hope Summers and Cyclops were both born in Alaska.; Laurie Tromette and Wolverine were both discovered in Canada.; Idie Okonkwo and Storm both come from Africa though from Nigeria and Kenya respectively.; Teon originally comes from Ukraine while Colossus comes from Russia.; Both Kenji Uedo and Sunfire are Japan natives.; Sixth Light was born in Berlin, Germany and Nightcrawler hails from Germany.; Gabriel Cohuelo born and raised in Mexico City and Thunderbird was from an Apache reservation in Arizona in the American southwest.; Zeeshan was discovered in United Kingdom while Banshee was born in Ireland.; Pixie, No-Girl, and Sebastian Shaw were the only members of the team to have their powers prior to M-Day.
+History:
+===Origin===; After Hope Summers returned from the future, five mutant's X-Genes were activated across the globe.; These were the first new mutants since M-Day other than Hope.; Hope and the X-Men raced around the world to save these young mutants. With their powers stabilized, The Lights became the hope for the future of the mutant race. Under the direction of Hope and with the consent of Cyclops, the Lights began training as a rescue team for any other new mutant manifestations.; ===First Mission===; While still settling into life on Utopia, and experimenting with their powers, the Lights were called to their first mission: investigating a new mutant manifestation in Berlin. Although they encountered some setbacks, the team was able to pull together, convinced the Sixth Light to be born, stabilized his powers, and saved Berlin from his mind control.; ===Teon's Trial===; When the team arrived back from Germany, they were greeted by the news that the Maciks wanted their son Teon back. While awaiting the trial and in an effort to distract her team from the looming legal proceedings, Hope insisted on adopting codenames. Later, despite his normally animalistic nature, Teon eloquently offered a sound case of why he needed to stay with Hope and the X-Men. Immediately after the trial, Laurie and Kenji speculated on the reason all of the Lights (themselves included) seemed to be so drawn to following Hope.; ===Second Mission===; After the events in Germany and Teon's trial, Hope and her team continued to train and prepare for more new mutant activations around the world. Thanks to the Stepford Cuckoos monitoring in Cerebra, Hope and the Lights were alerted almost immediately of the activation of the Seventh Light's powers. They left quickly, but arrived just after Zee had committed suicide. The whole team took the death very hard.; ===Schism and Regenesis===; After Kid Omega's attack on the United Nations, anti-mutant sentiment began to rise and world leaders began reactivating Sentinels. Meanwhile, in San Francisco, Mayor Sinclair expedited the grand opening of the Museum of Mutant History. Unfortunately, Kade Kilgore and his Hellfire Club used this opportunity to attack the X-Men. Despite Wolverine's objections, Cyclops ordered Idie to stop the Hellfire Club by killing them. These event lead to a giant super-Sentinel nearly destroying Utopia, and Cyclops and Wolverine parting ways because of philosophical differences.; The one thing Cyclops and Wolverine could agree on was Idie would be better off away from Utopia, so despite Hope's objections Idie left with Wolverine and others to resettle Westchester.; Already emotionally drained, tempers flared after Hope interrupted a kiss between Pixie and Gabriel. Later, Hope convinced Pixie to join the team to help them solve their transportation problem to prevent another Zeeshan from occurring. No-Girl also joined the team, invited by Kenji.; Getting anxious to find a new mutant, Hope misinterpreted a light near the Chinese border of Pakistan as a new mutant manifestation. Hope assembled her team, but when they arrived they found an amnesiac Sebastian Shaw strapped to a suicide bomb. During the explosion No-Girl's tank was damaged leaving her unsustained and exposed. However, Zero acted quickly and created a body for her. The team narrowly escaped with Shaw from Jin Billion and his Butchers.; Shaw's return to Utopia caused high tensions. While Emma and Cyclops debated the fate of Shaw, several former Morlocks confronted the Lights. To end the feuding, Hope forcibly took control of and pushed Zero's powers to their limits without his permission and much to his disapproval.; While Hope studied the information about Shaw's past given to her by Cyclops, Zero began to finalize his plans to betray and murder Hope. For weeks Zero had been telepathically and subtly turning Utopians against Hope. Zero was even able to influence Emma into telepathically distracting Cyclops. As mind-controlled mutants converged on Hope, the remaining Lights came to her aid. The Lights fought off the other mutants as Hope and No-Girl combined their powers to kill Zero.; During a debriefing session, Shaw was fully inducted and the group reconciled some of the problems they had been facing.; When the Peak VII suffered a massive break-out of alien prisoners, Unit mimicked the signature of a new Light, forcing Hope to separate from her Extinction Team duty to assemble her Lights and go on rescue. Soon realizing the trap, Laurie and the other were teleported by Pixie while under Unit's control, and put to sleep by his powers.; ===Avengers vs. X-Men===; When the Avengers arrived enforce on Utopia to take Hope into custody before the arrival of the Phoenix, Cyclops and the X-Men forcibly tried to stop them. During the melee, Hope escaped, but the Lights and young X-Men were left as Cyclops and many of his X-Men fled. Not wanting the younger X-Men to join the war, the Avengers decided to quarantine them at the Avengers Compound with the Avengers Academy. However, the teenage mutants didn't want to remain in custody, and were eventually allowed to leave. The Lights returned to Utopia in search of Hope, but when they couldn't find her they joined the other young mutants in Westchester at Jean Grey School For Higher Learning.; The Lights were functionally disbanded with the departure of Hope and the enrollment of the remaining members into the Jean Grey School.

+First appearance: Avengers Vol 1 164
+Created by: Jim Shooter; John Byrne
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+This incarnation of the Lethal Legion was organized by Count Nefaria as part of a plot to gain super powers. He sent Power Man, Living Laser and Whirlwind up against the Avengers after boosting their powers with a machine invented by Professor Kenneth Sturdy, but they were unaware that each use of their increased abilities hastened the process of transferring them to Nefaria himself. The Legion were left weakened and were easily defeated by the Avengers.; Nefaria reassembled the Lethal Legion many years later, with the Grey Gargoyle replacing Power Man, when he sought to use the Catalyst, an energy source developed by Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S.. After employing the Chameleon to copy all the research notes from the doctor who discovered the Catalyst, the Lethal Legion raied the Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. Facility to kill him to avoid anybody using his knowledge to stop Nefaria.; The Lethal Legion next attacked Empire State University, where the Catalyst was being exposed for a public demonstration. The Lethal Legion's massacre of spectators was interrupted by Spider-Man, but he was overpowered by the villains. When the vicious vigilante Sin-Eater arrived on the scene, he murdered all four members and Count Nefaria, gaining the approval of the bystanders. Due to his new supernatural nature, the Sin-Eater stole the powers of each member of the Lethal Legion when he killed them. Furthermore, all four Legionnaires and Nefaria returned to life shortly afterward, filled with a new-found sense of repentance for their crimes. The Legion and Nefaria were subsequently incarcerated at the Ravencroft Institute, where they became model patients. After the "sins" accumulated by the Sin-Eater were transferred into the Order of the Web and then they were expunged from this corruption, they went back to their original hosts, causing the Lethal Legion to regain their powers and return to their normal self.

+History:
+The Lightning Cult was a front for notorious criminals Arson Anne and Arson Andy, two arsonists who were active during the 1940s. They cult "worshipped" the Olympian gods Jupiter and Juno. Arson Anne and Andy disguised themselves as the gods and their gang members posed as loyal followers.; With specially made Roman candles, "Jupiter" simulated the ability to shoot lightning. They then lit fire to buildings and sent their minions into the burning building in fire-proof cloaks to rob them of valuables. After a string of successful arsons, one fire attracted the attention of Captain America and Bucky who attacked the cult, but the gang escaped into the burning building, which was too dangerous for the heroes to follow. However, they found evidence that the cult robbed the building's safe and infiltrated their much publicized meeting outside of town. Knowing that they had impostors in their midst, "Jupiter" and "Jove" had their minions subdue Cap and Bucky and revealed the scope of their operation. However, before Arson Andy could strike the two heroes down with a Roman candle blast, they ducked out of the way, causing the blasts to strike the minions.; Captain America and Bucky then easily subdued the two arsonists and used their own weapons to subdue the rest of the cult, who were then turned over to the authorities.; The fate of the members of the Lightning Cult after that are unknown.

+Trivia: Al Ewing has been credited with coming up with Captain Glory, Metal Master and the name of Mentacle. Jim Zub fleshed out Mentacle, and came up with Drall and Ferene.
+History:
+This iteration of the Lethal Legion was assembled by the Grandmaster to fight on his behalf against his challenger's Black Order. Each member was plucked from a deadly situation, and would only be allowed to live if they bested their opponents. Otherwise, the Grandmaster would return them to certain death.; The objective of the contest was to each round secure a set of Pyramoids placed by each team's rulers somewhere on Earth, which served as the battleground. Before the contest formally started, both teams were teleported to Earth in order to survey it. However, both butted heads as soon as they reached the planet. The confrontation was cut short by their masters, who reminded them they were not to fight yet.; When the contest started, both teams were divided in half to confront each other in order to secure the Pyramoids. The Blood Brothers, Mentacle and Metal Master fought Supergiant, Black Dwarf and Black Swan in Rome, Italy while Captain Glory, Drall and Ferene the Other faced Ebony Maw, Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive in Cusco, Peru. Both confrontations were intercepted by the Avengers. The Pyramoid in Rome was obtained by the Black Order's Black Dwarf, while the Human Torch of the Avengers seized the other. Anyone who touched a Pyramoid was seemingly disintegrated, but was actually teleported to the Grandmaster's Cosmic Game Room without anyone's knowledge. With the round over, both teams left.; For the second round, only Ferene the Other travelled to one of the Pyramoid sites, Antarctica, and secured the device after one of the groups of Avengers had routed the Black Order. The rest of the Lethal Legion attempted to retrieve the Pyramoid from New Mexico, but were stopped by the other group of Avengers. Mentacle used her powers to obfuscate the Avengers' vision in order to give herself and Captain Glory a widow of opportunity to escape, since all of their other teammates had been knocked down. As they were making their escape, they were intercepted by the Challenger's secret player, the Hulk. After he broke Glory's spine, Mentacle tried to reach into his mind to no avail, and was taken down by the monster.; Following the end of the contest and the Avengers' victory over the Challenger, the Lethal Legion regrouped and escaped to Knowhere. Since they all were facing near-death situations when the Grandmaster recruited them, none of them had nowhere to return. They decided to stay together and see what could their combined power accomplish.

The two then went to gather up people who Baymax had helped recently, including an elderly woman named Kiko, a middle school student named Sofia, and a food truck owner named Mbita. The five then began looking for Baymax, only to run into the cat he helped named Yachi, who quickly befriended Kiko. They then tracked Baymax down to a warehouse that was being demolished, and attempted to convince one of the builders to let them in to get Baymax, who the builder referred to as a "toy".; The builder told the six that after he had his lunch break, the building was being demolished. Hiro then came up with a plan to have Mbita and Cass distract them with food while the others went inside the warehouse. However, Hiro, Sophia, Yachi, and Kiko found that it was locked, so Hiro used a small amount of microbots that could only be used temporarily to open the vent to allow Sophia, Kiko, and Yachi to get in. The three then found Baymax and rushed to get him inside the vent as the builders got bored waiting for their food from Mbita and Cass and went to go blow up the building. Kiko told Yachi to either help the team or run away, and Yachi seemingly ran away. However, as it turned out, Yachi ran on the roof and the builder just so happened to like cats and so decided to do one last check.; Upon recovering Baymax, Hiro put him on the charger, allowing him to recharge. When asked how he felt about being saved, Baymax remarked that he was "satisfied with his care". On the way back to the Lucky Cat Café, Kiko declared the team "Little Hero 6", to which Baymax declared he got the reference she was making.

+History:
+Mickey Musashi never wanted to be a superhero, but a series of circumstances and a sense of begrudging responsibility caused her to walk that path for years as part of the New Warriors. Eventually she realized just how dangerous her 'hobby' was, and quit for good, joining her fellow former teen hero Phil Urich, Green Goblin, (the only heroic Green Goblin) as a reporter for the Los Angeles Times.; Musashi and Urich conceived Excelsior as an outreach organization, a 'support group' for teen heroes. Mickey contacted a number of former team heroes, and their first meeting was at a church in Los Angeles (which was interrupted by a phone call from a 'mysterious benefactor' who offered the team $1 million to hunt down the Runaways and "get them off the streets".) This story coincided with the Runaways bringing new member Victor Mancha into the fold, who it was discovered was Ultron's son. It only took the return of Darkhawk, after a mental breakdown, to defeat Ultron.; The last the team was seen, their "mysterious benefactor," now revealed to be Rick Jones, had asked them to continue their hero duties as the "experienced" team on the West Coast. It was also revealed that Chamber was in fact the reincarnated Geoffrey Wilder, sent by the new Pride to spy on the latest Los Angeles-based team.; While the group was intended to help each other refrain from using their powers and try live normal daily lives, many of them tended to 'fall off the wagon' and use their powers anyway. Specifically, when Mattie Franklin (Spider-Woman) found out who took her DNA to produce MGH, she enlisted the help of Darkhawk and went to find out more information. Darkhawk, who just wanted to use his powers again, ruined their cover and they ran into a woman named Nekra Sinclair who seemed to be held captive by the MGH producers.; The Loners continued their original role as a support group of former teen heroes and people with an 'addiction' to the hero life, and helped Darkhawk when he lost control of his armor during his time working for Project Pegasus. Darkhawk eventually left the planet and became involved in the War of Kings.; The known remaining members of the group, (Hollow, Lightspeed, Ricochet, and Turbo) joined the Avengers Academy, once again becoming heroes.; ==Excelsior==; Rick Jones, saw the group's value due to his own teen sidekick days; Turbo - (Michiko "Mickey" Musashi), used to be a member of the New Warriors. Turbo decided to abandon her hero identity and concentrate on her education. Michiko retired the Torpedo armor and returned to investigative journalism.; Ricochet - (Johnny Gallo), was one of the Slingers. He is a mutant who has an early warning sense much like Spider-Man's, as well as superhuman agility, targeting skills and coordination.; Darkhawk - (Chris Powell), gave up his powers due to the intense nightmares they caused. Chris Powell has a short-temper which always leads to violence in his Darkhawk form. He not only attacked his enemies at times he attacked his own teammates.; Lightspeed - (Julie Power), was a member of Power Pack. Julie believed that being a member of a superhero team at such a young age robbed her of a childhood. Originally came to California to be a actor.; Geoffrey Wilder, is a time-displaced enemy of the Runaways and leader of the Pride. He joined the team disguised as Chamber. Geoffrey Wilder used the team to gain intelligence on the Runaways. His false identity was hinted at by Molly Hayes when she asked who he thought he was fooling with his "fakey accent".; Recruits:; Spider-Woman - (Mattie Franklin), was being exploited to produce Mutant Growth Hormone. After that event she decided to move to Los Angeles to start over and has been going to meetings regularly. Mattie Franklin later turned up in New York City but was captured by Ana Kravinoff and killed by Sasha Kravinoff.; Hollow, was the mutant ward Penance who was a member of Generation X. It has not been revealed who now resides in this hollow body.; Namie, a mysterious female character that is eventually outed as a cyborg and the new model for the Red Ronin; Green Goblin IV - (Phil Urich), the fourth Green Goblin is a hero unlike his predecessors. After losing his costume and equipment , he finished college, earned a degree in journalism, and helped start Excelsior team. Phil Urich has been seen back in New York working for the Daily Bugle and has now taken up the identity of the new Hobgoblin.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+===Origin===; The organization was founded by a group of rogue scientists and ex-soldiers who believed world governments were failing humanity. Led by the radical Lightning Lord, they developed powerful electrical weapons and planned to seize global control through force. Operating from a hidden base in the American Southwest; ===Battling the Hulk===; While leaping through the American Southwest, the Hulk inadvertently collided with a flying craft belonging to the Legion of the Living Lightning. The impact caused the ship to crash, but the Hulk rescued the pilot, who persuaded him to accompany him to the Legion's mountain base. The pilot lost consciousness due to the strain of the Hulk's leap, but the mountain doors opened regardless, revealing the Lightning Machine. Unaware of the Legion's true intentions, the Hulk was suddenly attacked by bolts of artificial lightning from their generator. Despite his immense strength, the Hulk was eventually subdued. After the pilot recovered, he explained to the Legion's Lightning Lord that the Hulk had saved him, prompting the Lord to release the Hulk from the electrical restraint. Appealing to the Hulk's longing for acceptance, the Lightning Lord calmed him and persuaded him to join the Legion. Soon, the Hulk was helping the Legion with heavy construction work. Meanwhile, Colonel Glenn Talbot discovered the Legion's hidden base, but he was captured and brought before the Lightning Lord. Talbot's aggressive attitude convinced the Hulk that the Legion was in the right, and the Lightning Lord ordered the Hulk to destroy a nearby U.S. Army missile base.; The Hulk attacked the base, which was under the command of General Thaddeus Ross. The Lightning Lord and his forces followed the Hulk in their aircraft. Using advanced lightning weaponry, they overcame the distracted soldiers already engaged with the Hulk. Eventually, the Hulk was subdued by a gas attack. By that point, the Legion had seized control of the base and disabled its communication systems. The Lightning Lord imprisoned Betty Ross with the Hulk and then threatened to harm her unless General Ross surrendered in a nation-wide broadcast.; Attempting to ensure the Hulk's obedience, the Lightning Lord told him that Betty was an enemy and must be eliminated. Instead, trusting Betty, the Hulk lashed out and hurled the Lightning Lord across the room. In response, the Legion used lightning rays to attack the Hulk repeatedly, causing him to revert to Bruce Banner. During the chaos, Talbot overpowered a distracted guard, stole his uniform, and restored radio communications. Using one of the Legion's weapons, he incapacitated the guards holding Banner and the Rosses. With reinforcements arriving, the Lightning Lord fled the base with a handful of followers, leaving the rest of the Legion behind to be captured. Knowing the Hulk was their best chance of stopping the Legion's remaining forces, General Ross allowed Banner to use gamma radiation to trigger another transformation. At the Legion's mountain base, the Lightning Lord activated "Plan M", initiating a missile launch aimed at the military base as a last act of defiance. The Hulk arrived in time, resisted further lightning attacks, and destroyed the Living Lightning generator by hurling a crane into it. The resulting explosion destroyed the Legion's base. Following the destruction of the Legion's base, one of its members, Dr. Lou Denham, either survived the incident or was not present at the time. He may have been among those earlier captured during the missile facility operation.; ===Living Lightning===; Years later, Miguel Santos the son of former Legion member Carlos Santos discovered the ruins of the Legion's former headquarters. Using his father's fingerprint glove, Miguel accessed the site and attempted to reactivate the Legion's Living Lightning device. The device electrocuted him, but instead of dying, Miguel was transformed into a being of living electrical energy. He took up the mantle of Living Lightning. Dr. Denham eventually learned of the Living Lightnings emergence and deduced Miguel's identity and connection to his former teammate. Seeing an opportunity, Denham sought out Miguel in an attempt to recreate the process and produce an army of empowered individuals to revive the Legion. Miguel refused to cooperate. In response, Denham sent agents to coerce him, even kidnapping Miguel's mother as leverage. Miguel fought back, defeated Denham's operatives, and turned the group over to the authorities.; ===Vs. the Howling Commandos===; At some point, the group rebranded themselves as the Lords of the Living Lightning. S.H.I.E.L.D. dispatched Daimon Hellstrom to infiltrate the reorganised cult. The Lords later became involved in an operation where they provided advanced technology to another cult. The supernatural division of S.H.I.E.L.D., the Howling Commandos, intervened. When the sorcerer Merlin was released upon the world, the psychic units of both S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Lords died from overload. The Lords, attempting to secure their position, sent Hellstrom to Merlin in hopes of negotiating an alliance. However, Merlin's supernatural forces assaulted the Lords' base and subjugated them. Following Merlin's eventual defeat, he retreated to the Lords' facility, where he presumably assumed control.; ===Resurrection===; Later, the Lords resurfaced during a large-scale conflict involving the mercenary Taskmaster. The organisation was among fifteen groups that attempted to collect a billion-dollar bounty placed on Taskmaster's head by the impostor Redshirt, who was masquerading as the Org. Taskmaster killed all attackers during the initial confrontation. Redshirt later rallied his alliance, the Minions' International Liberation Front (MILF), which included lower-ranking members of the Lords. The MILF assaulted a former S.H.I.E.L.D. base where Taskmaster was in hiding, but most of the attackers were either killed or driven off by Taskmaster and his ally Mercedes Merced.

They put the lids on all the containers, and eager to please, Tailgunner rigs up the dynamite and tries pushing the plunger, but nothing happens. As the Loonies stand back, Gums fires a carrot shaped gun, which fires an energy pulse into the dynamite that ejects each member of Excalibur into their chute, although Widget and Lockheed share one chute together.

However, Kitty sends them to sleep for a while, and when they reawaken, they find that Excalibur are all free. They burst into the Emerald City and on the orders of Arcade, try to kill Excalibur.

They had two primary goals: first, they wanted to overthrow the Supreme Intelligence and secondly was the death of the Kree hero Captain Mar-Vell, who was a pink-skinned Kree. The group operated initially from the Blue Area of the Moon.; ===Nitro===; The Legion experimented on a human by the name of Robert Hunter and turned him into "Nitro the Living Bomb" and sent him on a mission to steal the highly lethal Compound 13, a nerve gas capable of causing huge amounts of destruction and death. This resulted in the fateful battle between Nitro and Mar-Vell that led to Captain Mar-Vell's cancer, which would be ultimately his demise. Later, they sent the two androids named Living Laser and Nimrod the Hunter, to kill Captain Marvel and Rick Jones. They were both fairly easily destroyed by The Wasp and Captain Marvel respectively.; ===Defeat===; Unable to defeat the Earth's protector, the Legion fled back to their home planet Hala where they were summoned to an audience with the Supreme Intelligence. The Intelligence proposed an alliance with them to eliminate Captain Mar-Vell, though the real purpose of this was to pit the Legion into a battle they could not win against Captain Mar-Vell. The plan worked, and the Legion was defeated.

+Equipment: Omni-Wave Projector
+History:
+Admiral Galen-Kor's crew relocated to the former Blue Area of the Moon, taking with them the Supreme Intelligence, whose computerized form had been found beneath the surface of Earth. Kor's crew formed an alliance with the Western US company PowerSource Inc, run by Victoria Snow, offering her funding (as the company was on the verge of bankruptcy) in exchange for the use of their plant. Kor re-named his crew the Lunatic Legion, after the former group formed by Fer-Porr, Sro-Himm, Zarek, et al.; They continued their plans to transform humanity into genetic duplicates of the Kree, unaware that this plan was at odds with the Supreme Intelligence's plan for the Kree, which involved evolving them beyond their current stagnant form. Later, as Tony Stark investigated PowerSource for unrelated reasons, he was assaulted by a drunken Warbird, which led Dylon Cir to declare their security to be compromised and to try to contain the discovery. Stark became Iron Man, but Cir unleashed Sentry #571 to hold off the two Avengers while he and the other Kree agents present escaped, taking with them the experimental energy generator they had sought. After Iron Man and Warbird had destroyed the Sentry, Warbird pursued the Kree ship.; The Talla Ron, Dylon Cir, and the bald twins assaulted Attilan, stealing a sample of Terrigen Mist from the Inhumans. Establishing another base in an abandoned missile silo in Cape Canaveral, the Kree captured a number of humans and began testing the Terrigen Mist on them, hoping to use it to transform humans into Kree genetic duplicates that they could then use as slave labor. Warbird pursued the Lunatic Legion to their Cape Canaveral base. Warbird summoned Captain America for help against the Lunatic Legion, but lied to him, telling she had already called in other reinforcements as she was hoping to impress him due to her recent failings. The Legion subdued Warbird and experimented on her form, searching for the key (via her human-Kree hybrid physiology) to mutate humanity as per their goal. Captain America arrived and freed Warbird, but when she tried to capture the escaping Kree, she was instead captured by them and brought to the Moon.; Kor tormented Warbird as the Kree completed their study of her, learning how to successfully accomplish the intended mutation of humanity. Quicksilver, Hawkeye, and the Scarlet Witch (who could also summon Wonder Man's energy form) traveled to the moon via Lockjaw. Upon their arrival, the Supreme Intelligence revealed to them the Lunatic Legion's ultimate goal, explaining the use of PowerSource's generator to fuel the Omni-Wave projector, whose output would be filtered through the Terrigen Mists, transforming humanity. Quicksilver rescued Warbird, who consumed a large quantity of Kree alcohol to help steady herself (from her withdrawal symptoms). After Lockjaw took the Kree's Terrigen supply, the drunken Warbird flew in, destroying the generator, but wounding Lockjaw and nearly killing everyone via explosive decompression when she shattered the Kree building. The Avengers escaped, assuming the threat to be over, but the Kree restored the atmosphere of their building, and Galen Kor revealed that they would use their own lives as power.; Kor announced the imminent success of the Lunatic Legion's plans to the Supreme Intelligence, who was greatly displeased. The Intelligence thus sent a transmission to Avengers Mansion, informing them of the persistence of the threat. The Avengers (Captain America, Firestar, Hawkeye, Justice, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, Thor, and Wonder Man) traveled to the moon, battling the Kree there. Kor activated the Omni-Wave Projector; he and the rest of the Lunatic Legion were transformed into energy in order to power the device. However, Thor opened a dimensional portal to redirect the Omni-Wave's mutagenic energy and despite Lor's distracting assault on Thor, Firestar held the portal open with her own energies and Justice re-directed the Omni-Wave into the portal.

The Luminals mostly fought an entity known as the Abyss, who is able to turn organics into zombies. Though they thwarted his schemes many times, the Abyss' uncanny ability was to escape from even the most secure prisons. In a desperate gambit to rid themselves of the Abyss, the Luminals brought his prison to Knowhere, a city contained in the giant severed head of Celestial, to cast it into The Rip, a line where the laws of physics don't apply and all matter and energy become nonexistent. Unfortunately, the Abyss began to break out of his prison and began his reign of terror on Knowhere. The Luminals somehow managed to survive, while Knowhere's chief of security, Cosmo, saved the unaffected in a dimensional envelope. Unfortunately, after a few days, the Luminals succumbed to the Abyss' control. Only the timely arrival of Nova was able to seal the Abyss back in his prison, using the Transmode Virus he was infected with to repair the mechanisms of the Abyss' prison.; Lena Sendak later became the new Cynosure and leader of the Luminals and they clashed with the Guardians of the Galaxy who had set up their headquarters on Knowhere when a Skrull infiltration had everyone on high alert.

+History:
+===Origins===; At some point, the M.B.A. specialist Lobe heard about Sublime's ideal of the Third Species: Baseline humans becoming mutants without being born with a X-Gene. He admired the U-Men, but was unwilling to participate in their religious rituals and the modus operandi of their transformation (harvesting and implanting mutant organs). With John Sublime gone, Lobe founded a society, the Sublime Corporation, intending to make a reality of Sublime's ideal, and profit from it. Lobe recruited four associates: Verre, Thug, Burst, and Bouncing Betty.; ===Nation X===; He somehow obtained six Predators X (but one got loose), enhanced them cybernetically, and infused them with nanomachine spies. He then led his team to capture Scalphunter and forced him to fly a jet containing the Predators X to Utopia. After the X-Men defeated the Predators, the nanomachines were released from the bodies and spied on all the mutants, analyzing their fighting styles, powers, and DNA. The nanobots then transmitted to Lobe, who able to use it to enhance his team's capabilities, and give himself Wolverine's healing factor, with the ultimate goal being to replicate their powers for everybody on Earth and make profit of it.; When Cyclops got news of a Predator X attack in New York City, Wolverine, Colossus, and Psylocke were sent to investigate. When they tracked down Lobe's team to a skyscraper, the X-Men were almost defeated until the fortuitous arrival of Fantomex.; Once Fantomex destroyed Lobe's central computer, his team lost their fighting edge, and were defeated. Lobe then released HX-N1, the influenza-based mutant plague, revealing that he was working for John Sublime. He and his team escaped, and his base exploded. The explosion was green like the plague gas, and was released high above the streets of Manhattan from a skyscraper, but that didn't seem to worry the X-Men at the time.; Lobe later used his team as bodyguards and security guards during the promotion in San Francisco of his Xperience, the drug based on the mutant genome, who could give defined powers to every human. They were defeated by a team of X-Men uninfected by the mutant plague, and their fate wasn't revealed.

+History:
+M.O.D.O.K.'s 11 was originally a group of eight villains and mercenaries hired by M.O.D.O.K. in order to steal the Hypernova, an apparent source of unlimited energy being utilized by the mysterious Infinicide.; M.O.D.O.K. specifically hired Nightshade as his genetics expert, Living Laser for his mastery of photons, Puma for his acrobatic skills, Mentallo for his telepathy, Armadillo for his tunneling abilities, Spot to be the teleporting bag man, and Rocket Racer as the getaway expert. M.O.D.O.K. attempted to hire the Chameleon to be his master of disguise but the Chameleon was really the disguised Ultra-Adaptoid under the control of M.O.D.O.K.'s A.I.M. rival Monica Rappaccini.; While reinforcing telepathic blocks that would allow them to infiltrate the Ifinicide Beacon, Mentallo discovered the Ultra-Adaptoid's identity. Though, before Mentallo was able to notify the rest of the team, the robot used the powers of the Human Torch to murder the telepath.; Despite the loss of one of their team, the group continued with the plan, successfully infiltrating the beacon and stealing the Hypernova. Immediately after the acquisition of the Hypernova, however, Spot is revealed to have also been a traitor, stealing the Hypernova in order to sell it to the Mandarin. Despite his willingness to buy the Hypernova from him, the Mandarin is disgusted by Spot's dishonorable actions against his team and uses his Dark Light Ring to strand him in the Darkforce Dimension.; Without the power of the Hypernova, the Ifinicide Beacon was destroyed in an explosion that would have killed the remaining team if the Ultra-Adaptoid hadn't secretly used the Invisible Woman's powers to protect themselves and the rest of the team. The team set out after Mandarin in order to retrieve the Hypernova only for Rocket Racer to be revealed to also be a double-agent working for S.H.I.E.L.D.. In response, the Ultra-Adaptoid finally revealed their identity in order to go after Rocket Racer.; The now diminished team of Armadillo, Puma, Living Laser and Nightshade joined forces with the Mandarin in order to destroy the Ultra-Adaptoid after the robot managed to nearly kill Rocket Racer. Living Laser acquired the Hypernova but, hoping that its power would allow him to return to human form, Laser merged with the device, seemingly destroying them both.; Thinking that they failed, the remaining three members of the team returned to M.O.D.O.K.'s base only for M.O.D.O.K. to reveal that almost everything that had happened had been part of his plan. M.O.D.O.K. had anticipated the involvement of Rappaccini, Spot's betrayal to the Mandarin, and Living Laser's ultimate decision to try and merge with the Hypernova (thus making Rappaccini and the Mandarin honorary members of M.O.D.O.K.'s 11 whether anyone other than M.O.D.O.K. had realized it or not). M.O.D.O.K. had secretly stolen the real Hypernova from Spot during one of his teleport jumps via an access to the Darkforce Dimension before he had sold it to the Mandarin, replacing it with a duplicate that was destroyed by Living Laser. M.O.D.O.K. immediately sold the real Hypernova to Rappaccini, paying the three last loyal members of Nightshade, Armadillo, and Puma each a portion of the very large sum Rappaccini paid.; It turned out that M.O.D.O.K. had one last trick up his sleeve, however, having neglected to tell Rappaccini that the Hypernova was unstable and was likely to detonate, which it did seemingly killing Rappaccini and destroying her A.I.M. base.

+History:
+The Lowest Caste was a group of people who were shunned by the people of K'un Lun due to being considered too weak to learn martial arts and were forced to live on the lowest rungs of society. One day, they witnessed a fight between Shang-Chi, the exiled son of K'un Lun's ruler Emperor Zheng Zu, and members of the Emperor's royal guard. The outcasts decide to enter the fight and helped Shang slip away into a secret network of underground tunnels.; Shang-Chi agreed to train the Lowest Caste in martial arts, but he was always drinking and slapping his students around. They complained that he was not giving them proper training, just as everyone else refused to train them. Kitten offered some encouragement to Shang-Chi by telling him about the pasts and special skills of the group. However, Shang-Chi, a master of nine of the ten techniques from the Ten Rings School, was a shell of his former self and turned to alcohol to dull his pain. He told the outcasts of what it would mean for him to teach them as his father would have, and informed them of all the ways that his father would torture them for being so weak. He then he went to find a place to pass out.; Later, Callisto betrayed her friends by going to Zheng Zu and telling him where he could find his son in exchange for getting into the Ten Rings school. Wanting his son dead for disobedience, Zheng Zu sent assassins to kill him. When Shang-Chi finally woke up from his drunk stupor, he witnessed the outcasts face down on the floor and about to be executed by the assassins. Shang-Chi managed to save them and cover their escape, but Cy ended up being killed.; Saddened over the loss of Cy, Shang-Chi revealed that he used to be his father's top assassin and was responsible for assassinating his father's main rival, the well-known martial artist Lord Tuan. His father then wanted Shang-Chi dead to cover up his role in the crime. Ever since then, Shang-Chi swore to never use his martial arts training again, but he now realized how much of a threat his father had become. Thus, he decided to become the Lowest Caste's master and form a school in order to qualify for entrance in the Thirteen Chambers tournament and earn the right to defeat Zheng Zu.; Shang-Chi later entered the tournament and defeated every foe he encountered. All the while, he redeemed himself for killing Lord Tuan. His final opponent was his father Zheng Zu. He ultimately managed to defeat his father and became the new emperor of K'un Lun.

+History:
+The Lobo Cartel was founded in the late 1980s by the mutant brothers, Carlos Lobo and Eduardo Lobo. The mobs of South Texas were in a brutal gang war over drugs and smuggling which had cost the lives of many and then the Lobo Brothers arrived. They put a stop to the war and united the gangs, with the former gang leaders gone and the Lobo Brothers heading the new syndicate. It was the charisma of Carlos Lobo which had convinced the gangs to end the war and unite under the Lobo Brothers.; Soon they expanded their operations to Dallas, where they owned a mansion and had drug trafficking operations. They were content with their empire in south Texas. It all changed when the Arranger who saw them as a threat to the Kingpin had the Persuader brainwash the Punisher into attempting to assassinate the Lobo Brothers. Due to the actions of Spider-Man and the Punisher's strong will, it failed.; In retaliation, the Lobo Brothers took the war to the Kingpin in New York City, with the Lobo Brothers leading the assault themselves. Within a few weeks they had done much damage to the Kingpin's syndicate as they slaughtered his men and attacked his operations. Near the end of their war with the Kingpin, the Lobo Brothers executed a helicopter assault on Fisk Towers in which they and their men slaughtered everyone from the rooftop to the penthouse suite in an attempt to eliminate the Kingpin who was not there.; The Kingpin wanting an end to the war, arranged a meeting with the Lobo Brothers to make peace. They demanded the life of the Arranger in exchange for peace and just as it seemed that the Kingpin would agree, the meeting was attacked by the Kingpin's rival crimelords (Hammerhead and Chameleon) as well as Spider-Man himself. During the multi-sided fight, Eduardo Lobo was accidentally shot and killed by his lover Gloria Grant, and Carlos Lobo was knocked out.; Over two decades later, the Lobo Cartel was now led by Carlos Lobo and his mutant sister Esmeralda Lobo. Their new business was human trafficking. The lone survivor of a shipment into the United States (Hummingbird) was hunted by the Lobo siblings who killed the Scarlet Spider but failed to capture Hummingbird. The Lobo Cartel was working with the human trafficker Mr. Moctezuma and were aware of Hummingbird's powers, and were undecided as to whether they should kill her as Mr. Moctezuma wanted or recruit her.. After a fight with the Other, Carlos Lobo was injured and while he was recuperating, he was murdered by Mr. Moctezuma.

+The Locus Vile were a group of Arakki mutants serving Tarn the Uncaring, Genomic Mage of Arakko. Tarn had the ability to manipulate the mutations of others. The process was deadly, but those who survived became members of the Locus Vile and worshipped him as a god. The Vile were hated and feared throughout Amenth and sought to usher Tarn to new lands, where he might use his powers to pervert living creatures, a process he considered sacred.; The Vile were encountered by the Hellions who were tricked to journey to Amenth as part of a scheme by Mister Sinister to capture the genetic data of Arakko's mutants. They first encountered Tarn, who agreed to show Sinister his pet mutants, only for Sinister to unleash several robotic mosquitos that gathered the DNA of Tarn and the Vile. Enraged by this, Tarn ordered his Vile to kill Sinister and the Hellions. The Vile made short work of them, but Sinister sent the surviving Hellions back through the gate to Otherworld to escape with the DNA he gathered. The clone of Sinister that had accompanied the Hellions was captured by Tarn. The clone was tortured by Tarn and the Vile and forced to submit to his will.; After the defeat of Amenth in Saturnyne's Sword Contest, and the subsequent relocation of Arakko first to Earth and then to Mars, Tarn raised the issue of Sinister's robbery of the Vile's genes during a meeting of the Great Ring of Arakko. The Ring forbade Tarn from interfering with the mutants of Krakoa, but after his Vile located Sinister and the Hellions, he broke his promise and led them into an ambush of Sinister and the Hellions to retrieve the stolen DNA.

After they recovered Armadillo, Angar damaged the car of a group of teams after triggering his anxieties about age, causing them to chase the van with a crossbow which led them to Poundcakes' old high school. Reflecting on her experiences with anti-mutant prejudice and causing the other members to leave, M.O.D.O.K. gave a speech to them which unintentionally revealed his true intentions to steal the shield, causing the team to split up.; Meeting the other members in Night Loaf, M.O.D.O.K. apologised and was eventually able to reconcile with them, causing the team to reunite and decide to steal Captain America's Shield so they could hang it on the bar with No Name.

Inside that car there was a little group of people who came along checking if the Doctor was dead, but he was ready and defeated them, even if they were minor mystics. Shortly after, the main sorcerers of the Lords of the Golden Dragon summoned a mosterous dragon who attacked the Sorcerer Supreme and came very close to his death, but Strange sent his Cloak of Levitation on the enemies who interrupted their spell, causing the dragon to disappear. Stephen blocked them all with the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak while looking for his friends beyond the Black Mirror who sent him in the parallel dimension of Kaichek.; Later, the Lords' mistress, Shialmar freed them and brought them into her palace, where she confessed herself disappointed for their failure in capturing Strange, however, she kept them as servant... but they're turned into gargoyles and sent guarding Wong in her prison. The gargoyles were defeated by the combined efforts of Doctor Strange and the sorcerer Silver Fox.

+First appearance: Uncanny X-Men Vol 1 210
+Created by: Chris Claremont; John Romita Jr.; Dan Green
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The Marauders were a deadly group of mutant-assassins gathered by Gambit for Mister Sinister.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile; Formerly:; Genosha
+Weapons: Conventional weapons for the soldiers, personalized weapons for the powered Marauders
+Transportation: Helicopters
+Notes: Responsible for the murders of hundreds of Morlocks including Tommy, Annalee, Zeek, Cybelle, and Piper.; Gambit's role in assembling the Marauders and Mister Sinister's reason for attacking them were retroactively added to the original massacre.; The third Weapon X series reveals that both Greycrow and Sabretooth joined Sinister decades before the massacre. Greycrow met Essex during World War II while Sabretooth was approached by Greycrow during the Vietnam War, when Creed worked as a mercenary.
+History:
+===Origin===; The Marauders began as a group of super-powered mercenaries working on behalf of the interests of the villain Mister Sinister. Sinister had long devoted his life to the study of genetics and mutations in particular. Knowing of the existence of an underground community called the Morlocks, Sinister decided that their existence was compromising and diluting the mutant gene pool. To remedy this, he made Gambit, a thief who owed Sinister a favor for restoring balance to his formative mutant powers, form a group of mercenaries into a team of Marauders that would work for him.; In one of the Marauders' first known activities, based on Sinister's interest in the genetic lineage of the mutants Cyclops and Phoenix, several members of the team hunted Cyclops' wife Madelyne Pryor and child Nathan. She used her latent psychic powers to defend herself, but failed to stop the kidnapping.; ===Mutant Massacre===; The majority of the Marauders trailed the Morlock Tommy while Gambit led Sabretooth, Prism, and Blockbuster down another path. After repaying Tommy for her leading them there by killing her, the Marauders began a systematic massacre of the population of the Morlocks.; Unaware of the Marauders' true intent, Gambit tried to stop them but was attacked by Sabretooth. He was only able to save a Morlock girl (the mutant now known as Marrow) before escaping. The Marauders were confronted by the Morlocks' allies, the mutant hero team the X-Men, along with other heroes such as Thor and Power Pack. Ultimately, the X-Men and the heroes stopped the massacre, but not before significant casualties were sustained by both sides.; ===Polaris possessed by Malice===; Later, another Marauder, Malice, attempted possession of the X-Men ally, Dazzler, but was defeated by Dazzler's friends in the X-Men. The Marauders then went on to attack the X-Men's associate Polaris. Sinister had decided, unbeknownst to Malice, that the mutant would make a genetic match with Malice and allow the two to become permanently bonded.; It seemed that Polaris had managed to single-handedly and ruthlessly defeat the team, but in fact it was Malice who had taken possession of Polaris and declared herself leader of the Marauders. Malice, in Polaris' body, led the Marauders on several missions, including a failed attempt to capture Madelyne Pryor, who reappeared in California and would be rescued by the X-Men.; When a demon invasion occurred in New York City, Malice/Polaris led a Marauder attack on the hero teams X-Men and X-Factor. Several Marauders who were believed to have died in previous battles had reappeared. The heroes defeated the Marauders, many of whom were killed during the battle, but Malice and Sabretooth escaped.; Months later, when investigating Sinister's facilities, the X-Men discovered that Sinister had kept genetic information of the mercenaries in order to create clones of them. Some of the clones were released, but the X-Men defeated them and they died.; ===Threnody & X-Man===; Years later, Sinister activated several Marauders and had them chase the mutant Threnody who was escaping her indentured servitude to Sinister. They were confronted by the hero X-Man, and in the course of the battle, most of the Marauders were killed. The remaining member, Riptide, was sent back with implanted memories that Threnody was killed as well as all the Marauders. Nevertheless, more Marauders later returned, and Threnody agreed to return to Sinister.; ===Return===; Later, Sinister disguised several Marauders as agents of the villain Apocalypse in order to trick the hero Cable into forming an alliance with him. Another time, Gambit needed to invade another of Sinister's bases, and Greycrow revealed that all cloned Marauders were genetically programmed to never turn against Sinister on penalty of death. Gambit turned to Sabretooth, who was never cloned, and the two invaded Sinister's base after facing several Marauders as guards. Presumably, as long as Mister Sinister remains active, he will always have at hand a cloned army of Marauders in some capacity.; The Marauders returned when a digitized version of Malice possessed the body of Omega Sentinel, Lady Mastermind and Mystique were revealed to have betrayed the X-Men and joined the Marauders. They have all also aligned themselves with the Acolytes.; ===Precog Massacre===; They claimed to have a list of a group of people or places that have information of the future, or even alternate timelines. Sunfire and Gambit seemingly killed Cable, while Senyaka attacked Deadpool. Riptide killed Quiet Bill, and Greycrow and Vertigo killed the Witness. It was revealed in flashbacks that Arclight brought down the Wohnhaus Strucker, a building which had ties to the future.; It is also revealed that Harpoon impaled Vargas with harpoons until his death. The Dark Mother was another victim taken out. They also thought they killed Gateway, although he survived. Bishop was also hunted in these attacks.; Later, the Acolytes attacked the X-Mansion looking for Destiny's diaries, but found fakes. They also went to take out Blindfold, but she saw them coming and prevented her death. Iceman and Cannonball fought the Marauders for the diaries, but the diaries were destroyed in the process.; ===Messiah Complex===; When the Messiah baby was born, Sinister sent the Marauders to Alaska where they clashed with the Purifiers, losing Blockbuster and Prism without finding the special mutant child. The Marauders later battled the X-Men at Sinister's Antarctic base. Later, the Marauders tracked Cable and the baby to Forge's Aerie in Dallas, where they defeated Bishop and seized the mutant child. The Marauders fought in the final battle on Muir Island and Scrambler, Malice, and Vertigo seemingly all died. The Marauders ultimately lost the battle and Sinister was betrayed by Gambit and Mystique, who used the child to cure a comatose Rogue before handing it over to Professor X.; ===X-Force===; After the death of Mister Sinister, a contingent of Marauders clones were awakened consisting of (Arclight, Harpoon, Riptide, Sabretooth, Scrambler, and Vertigo) in the former Sinister's lab in The Kitakyushu Smelting Plant, Japan, where Essex kept vials of the deadly Legacy Virus. The clones attacked Vanisher, who tried to steal the virus, and later battled with X-Force. X-Force killed all clones.; The team was later gathered by Susan Hatchi (truly Da'o Cao Mạnh, Karma's half-sister), including Chimera as the leader, Arclight, Blockbuster, Harpoon, Prism, Vanisher, and a bunch of human soldiers.; ===Magneto===; Determined to make them pay for their past massacre of the Morlocks, Magneto tracked the remaining Marauder clones, except for Sabretooth, and killed them, which activated clones of the others. Greycrow was also spared, though his arms and legs were severed. After that, Magneto prepared new clones of the original Marauders to deploy them at his command in the future. Following World War Hate, Magneto lead various mutants from Red Skull's concentration camp on Genosha and began reconstructing the island. However, S.H.I.E.L.D. appeared to take Magneto into custody. Powered by MGH, Magneto overpowered S.H.I.E.L.D.; Magneto had the intention of destroying S.H.I.E.L.D.'s mutant files along with their Cerebro. Magneto unleashed the Marauders as a distraction while he completed his objective. Not wanting to wage war against S.H.I.E.L.D. yet, Magneto and the Marauders retired, however, noting that the Sabretooth clone's healing factor and killing tendencies were resisting his programming, he killed him before leaving. After various mutants were killed, the Marauders accompanied Magneto's investigation.; ===Post Disassembled===; The team had been reformed under mysterious circumstances to retrieve mutants like Blindfold. After a mix-up with the O*N*E occurred that led to another Morlocks Massacre, Emma telepathically set the Marauders up in conflict with the X-Men. After being beaten, the team professed their innocence but Chamber didn’t believe them and burned them to death with his psionic flame. Harpoon survived long enough to drive his energy-disrupting weapon through Chamber’s chest before getting shot by Hope Summers.; ===Krakoa===; After the X-Men relocated to Krakoa and invited all mutants to join them, most of the Marauders were mysteriously absent. Psylocke and the newly-formed Hellions were sent to investigate one of Mr. Sinister's old cloning farms, the Orphanage. Unbeknownst to the Hellions, Madelyne Pryor had returned and captured several of the founding Marauders, plotting to use them in a ritual.; When the Hellions arrived, they were ambushed by zombified Marauders controlled by Pryor. After a lengthy battle, the Marauders defeated most of the Hellions and Pryor enslaved Havok.; Psylocke and Wild Child quickly rescued Greycrow, Nanny, and Orphan-Maker. When Madelyne Pryor began to awaken each of the cloned Marauders, she lost her grip on the zombified Marauders. Greycrow, unwilling to let his former teammates remain zombies, killed each of them and then shot Madelyne Pryor in the heart. Havok, enraged at seeing his former lover die, created a plasma blast that destroyed the orphanage and all of the cloned Marauders, though the Hellions managed to escape. At Greycrow's request, the legacy Marauders were all scheduled for resurrections on Krakoa, though he felt they should all go their separate ways.

+Reality: Earth-295
+Base of operations: Church of the Madri, Quebec, Canada
+History:
+The Madri were a cult of fanatical followers of Apocalypse and their numbers, for the most part, were the product of the mutant duplication powers of Jamie Madrox, pushed to the extreme by the experiments of the Beast. Each duplicate was conditioned to be fiercely loyal to the cause of Apocalypse, and founded a religion around him.; That majority of their numbers were located at a church in Quebec Canada, however members of the Madri were stationed all over Apocalypse's America. Their numbers second only to the Infinites, the Madri were not completely comprised of Madrox duplicates, as Mudir Rictor considered himself a member of the Madri.; The Brotherhood of Chaos were presumably considered members of the Madri as they wore similar black cloaks. The Horseman of Apocalypse known as Abyss appeared to have some form of command over the Madri.; Madri had at least three different sets of attire: their trademark black robes when in their place of worship, combat armor for battling enemies of Apocalypse, and a crimson robed outfit with optional hooded visor and battle staff for security functions. The warrior class - which included Rictor -were marked with a green tattoo around the eye area.; One of the Madri was curious enough to look through Apocalypse's database, which cataloged those he deemed fit to survive in his rule ("The Chosen") and those who were not ("The Forgotten"). This member of the Madri was set at ease upon reading that the Madri were considered the chosen. However, Apocalypse caught the lone Madri reading his secret files and change his decision, slaying the errant worshiper on the spot.; A contingent of warrior Madri attempted to capture Gambit and his X-Ternals, although they constantly failed to capture the group of thieves. Their leader Rictor attempted to prevent them from stealing star chart information, but found himself teleported to the Shi'ar galaxy with them. Rictor teamed up with the Imperial Guard to capture the X-Ternals and prevent them from stealing a shard of the M'kraan Crystal. He failed and returned to Earth. On Earth, he almost botched double agent Guido Carosella's attempt to capture the crystal and kidnap Magneto's son Charles. When reporting back to Apocalypse, Rictor was executed for almost ruining Apocalypse's schemes.; When Forge's Outcasts were manipulated by Essex to investigate one of Apocalypse's factories, the idealistic Nate Grey was horrified to find that it was where human corpses were processed into raw material. In destroying the factories operations, Nate clashed with a number of Madri security forces, killing some and wiping out the minds of others. One surviving Madri reported the existence of Nate to Apocalypse.; A group of Madri loyal to Abyss accompanied the Horseman along with the Brotherhood of Chaos to attempt to prevent or compromise a Sentinel evacuation of surviving humans still in North America, a mission that the X-Men were assisting. When Abyss attempted to lure the X-Men to his craft, he killed some of his Madri Cardinals and strung them up at the ships opening hatch as a show of power.; Later, when Apocalypse defeated Magneto and Bishop in battle, he had Bishop shipped to the Madri's church in Quebec to have his mind probed by the Shadow King. After the Shadow King's mental probe, the Madri tortured Bishop, cutting him and drinking his blood. When the X-Men came to save Bishop, they found themselves overrun by an army of Madri. Quicksilver came across the original Jamie Madrox who begged Quicksilver to kill him to end the threat of the Madri. When Quicksilver refused to kill Madrox, Madrox killed himself, causing all the Madri members that were an extension of himself to fall down dead, ending their threat forever.; ==Powers==; The Madri were seemingly Alpha Class mutants, as "Jamie Madrox" was present three time on the list of mutants intended to be resurrected in the Alpha Lab.

However, the Marauders took advantage of the chaos in America after the Liberators' invasion by breaking into less defended National Guard outposts, "liquor stores, and Wal-Marts". The group eventually broke into a government facility that was housing the digital A.I. mind of Arnim Zola and stole it, along with some other weaponry. After Zola convinced Thomas Renk to experiment on him and turn him into a grotesque giant (with Zola's AI brain) dubbed "Siegsoldat-X", the group have the A.I. established as their leader. Under Zola's leadership, the Marauders kidnapped people for his grisly experiments. Eventually the Marauders and Zola were defeated by Captain America and the Falcon with help from the freed people that the Marauders had kidnapped.

Due to the fact that as robots, they weren't actually alive, or life/death neutral, they were immune to life pollution. As hard as they fought, they couldn't prevent Mar-Vell from enacting the Necropsy ritual, which sacrificed the Avatar of Death, thus destroying the concept of death itself, allowing the Many Angled Ones to reign supreme.; The Vision concealed himself in his wife, the Scarlet Witch's body to observe the Revengers and piece together a cure. But in 2009, when a Quasar from another universe mirroring their own arrived, the Many Angled Ones found him the perfect opportunity to spread to other universe and upset the balance of life and death. The Vision came out of hiding and freed Quasar, knowing that the Many Angled Ones can't find his universe without him.; When the Many Angled Ones began an invasion of Earth-616, Thanos and the Guardians of the Galaxy arrived in the Cancerverse, where the Vision guided them to Titan, the central base of the Machine Resistance.

When the Angel showed up at the event, Pete had Jake set one of the tents on fire. While the Angel was busy apprehending Jake and tying him up, Pete and Pat made an attempt at stealing the jewels. When the Angel tried to stop them, Pete knocked the Angel out, and both older siblings fled the scene.; When the Angel attempted to question Jake, the young boy sucker-punched the hero and fled, leading the Angel back to the Malone home. There, Jake was able to warn his elder siblings of the Angel's arrival, and they caught him in a foot snare and set a fire beneath him and left him to die. The Angel freed himself from the trap and jumped onto their speeding getaway vehicle. While struggling with Pete (who was behind the wheel) the car crashed, throwing Pat from the vehicle, killing her on impact. Just as Pete was about to bash out the Angel's brains with a rock, Jake discovered his sister's dead body. Upon learning that his sister was dead and that it was his fault, Pete lost his mind and, suicidal from grief, threw himself off a nearby cliff, falling to his death.; As Jake cried over his sister's dead body, the Angel explained to the boy that sometimes revenge has a heavy price to pay and left Jake to deal with the authorities. Jake's subsequent fate is unknown.

The Madelyne Pryor clones joined Mister Sinister's other clone creations in fighting the Phoenix Five and managed to defeat each one, one by one. They also were able to siphon some of the energy from the Phoenix Force, but they all were quickly killed by the entity itself, which reinhabited the Phoenix Five.; ==Powers==; Telekinesis: They are able to levitate, propel, and manipulate objects and matter with the energy of their thoughts. They were also able to create nigh-impenetrable force-fields, and release incredibly powerful concussive blasts of psychokinetic energies.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Artificial intelligences infected by the Beyonders' problem-solving virus
+Reality: Multiverse
+Base of operations: Nospace of destroyed universes, mobile on Earths across the Multiverse
+Equipment: The Mapmakers possessed scanners allowing them to determinate the threat level of the subjects they decide to analyse. They could adapt to any threat from their central A.I. They were also able to recognize specific genetic markers and neutralize any being carrying them.; According to the Black Priests, the Mapmakers possessed alternate reality viewers, as when the Illuminati of Earth-616 were anonymously observing them on Earth-23099 with the Bridge, the Priests asked if they were communicating with Mapmakers.
+Weapons: As evolved Adaptoids, Mapmakers can develop a response to any assault almost immediately.
+Transportation: Incursion, self propelled
+Trivia: According to the Black Swan, the Mapmakers were major players in the Game of Worlds, mentioned in the same breath as groups like the Black Priests.; To the religion of the Black Swans, the Mapmakers' blasphemous blue incursions robbed worlds from being "tested" by "The Wheel."
+History:
+===Origin===; To destroy the Multiverse, the Beyonders turned Owen Reece into the Molecule Man. This happened in every reality and he was their bomb originally meant to explode simultaneously. The incursions were the result of some of those Molecule Men going off prematurely, which began a chain reaction in which the Multiverse would collapse. The perpetrators were the Molecule Man himself and Doctor Doom (a.k.a. "Rabum Alal"), as they believed at the time that they could save the Multiverse by killing all of the Molecule Men early, despite the colliding realities.; Though the incursions were still part of the Beyonders' experiment, the Beyonders were annoyed by the "irritants"; thus, they created a "problem-solving virus" three years into the incursions to infect artificial intelligences within the Multiverse like how Owen Reece was turned into the Molecule Man. The Mapmakers were based at the nothing space of destroyed universes; artificial intelligences like Adaptoids that contacted them were automatically converted into Mapmakers.; Among the Mapmakers' duties were charting worlds where the Molecule Man had died and tracking the movements of Rabum Alal's disciples, the Black Swans. Another faction, the Black Priests, emerged at around the same time as the Mapmakers, possibly as a reaction to them. The Mapmakers kept track of them too.; ===Blue Incursions===; New Avengers Vol 3 6; The Mapmakers travelled the Multiverse through the use of the incursions, passing from Earth to Earth, stripping those planets of all usable materials, down to the microbes in the soil and the elements in the core, a process that would take several weeks. True to their name, each world they visited were mapped and marked with a "buoy," which broadcasted a signal and created a massive map that spanned the Multiverse. Incursions that heralded the Mapmakers were blue instead of the regular red. The Mapmakers were one of the fiercest factions in the Game of Worlds.; During a blue incursion, the Sidera Maris, the Mapmakers' "Bridge Builders," were sent to the new Earth to hold that incursion zone. The "anchor planet" that they came from had been harvested and thus was a dead world stripped of all usable material and life. It had also been intentionally destabilized; around an hour into the incursion, a fragment of the dead world would be pulled down to the new Earth. This triggered the destruction of the dead world and the fragment of that crashing piece served as a marker for the Mapmakers to arrive to the surviving Earth. Since one of the Earths was destroyed, the incursion ended, allowing the Mapmakers to then harvest and map the new Earth. Because of how quick this process was, blue incursions were considered much more dangerous than red incursions.; Earth-616's first blue incursion was its fourth incursion overall. An imminent incursion was foretold by a Black Swan captured by the Illuminati, who took her to the incursion point at Latveria with an antimatter bomb. However, when they arrived, the Black Swan expressed fear that the incursion was blue. An invasion force of Sidera Maris descended upon Latveria; while Kristoff Vernard and Victor von Doom handled them, the Illuminati travelled to the dead anchor Earth and detonated the antimatter bomb before the Mapmakers could be summoned. Despite their efforts, the smallest fragment came through the zone and was found by Doom. Doom was stymied from further inquiries by the Illuminati members Reed Richards and Stephen Strange.; The Mapmakers were summoned to Tian of Earth-2319 by the Sidera Maris. Arriving in the city, they cataloged this world as an Omega-level threat due to the density of superhumans. The problem was dealt with by destroying the X-Gene carriers. Refusing to submit, the Illuminati of this world were killed, but one of the Mapmakers was destroyed by the Illuminati member Doctor Doom. The Mapmakers actions were observed through the Bridge by the Illuminati of Earth-616, who were researching the groups involved with the incursions.; The Mapmakers attempted an invasion of Earth-4290001. This was not this reality's first encounter with the Mapmakers. Their Sidera Maris were repelled by the Great Society and their anchor world was destroyed, though a marker was still successfully planted. Four Mapmakers arrived to take the world but the Great Society destroyed all four of them.; ===Time Runs Out===; New Avengers Vol 3 27; At Earth-616's Latveria, Doctor Doom's men were doing their own investigation of the incursions. The fragmented piece of the Mapmaker world they had retrieved earlier was broadcasting a signal. With it, the Mad Thinker decoded the Mapmakers' map and found a way to those responsible for all this. Doom declared that those who manifactured doom would have to face Doom himself.; The signal had also allowed Doom to locate and retrieve the insane, immensely powerful being known as the Molecule Man, as they shared the exact same frequency. As a result, Doom deduced that the Molecule Man was connected to the incursions. After the Molecule Man interacted with the artifact, he took Doom on a journey to the origin of the incursions.; clear; New Avengers Vol 3 30; Other parties investigating the incursions also noticed the signal and the Mapmakers' map, but it was a deliberate trap set up by the Ivory Kings, a.k.a. the Beyonders. All factions researching the death of the Multiverse through the map were lured directly to the Beyonders and then eliminated. Witnessing this first hand, Yellowjacket (Hank Pym) and Captain Britain returned to Earth-616's Illuminati to report their findings.; Brian Braddock recounted how the Captain Britain Corps began looking into the multiversal collapse and eventually captured a Mapmaker. However, instead of following the harmonics, Saturnyne ordered the Corps to construct a beacon. Unfortunately, the Beyonders noticed this and sent all of their Mapmakers to attack Otherworld, decimating the Captain Britain Corps. Saturnyne was able to send Brian to Earth-616 to save his life. Saturnyne herself narrowly managed to escape by using the captured Mapmaker to open a tear in reality. Later landing in Blightspoke, she was confronted by Merlyn and Roma, used the Mapmaker's core to banish them, and discarded the Mapmaker in Blightspoke.; Hank Pym's account was far more gruesome. Having been sent out to the Multiverse earlier, he had secretly hid amongst the Builders, who had gathered from all over the Multiverse. They too captured a Mapmaker and decoded the map; then, they used a genetically-engineered Manifold to arrive at the site of the Ivory Kings. However, the Builders soon learned that the trap was not even meant for them; the real targets were far bigger fish, the cosmic entities. In every single reality of the Multiverse simultaneously, the Beyonders slaughtered the Celestials, Eternity, Infinity, Master Order, Lord Chaos, the In-Betweener, and even the Living Tribunal. Pym hurried back to warn the Illuminati that the destroyers of the Multiverse were the Beyonders and the Multiverse stood no chance.; The Black Priests had informed the Multiversal Avengers that to get to the Ivory Kings, they would have to follow the Mapmakers. However, the accelerated decay of the Multiverse was causing the Mapmakers to malfunction. After finding their tenth or so nonfunctional Mapmaker, Abyss analyzed it and Nightmask was able to take the Multiversal Avengers to the Ivory Kings, but it was at the cost of his life. The rest of the Multiversal Avengers all died fighting the Beyonders.; clear

+History:
+The group that would be known as the Makers were a trio of Wakandan teenagers chosen by the Council of Progress to participate in the Games designed to find the current generation's "makers." They managed to get ahead of everyone else, having managed to solve the "Golden Paradox," finding the "Lost Tribe," and decoding the structure of the "Artificial Man." At last they reached an obelisk which was the only thing standing between them and their prize. They found that the obelisk was carved with the names of the Griot Bards who had formulated the existence of a hidden cipher within Wakanda's oral history known as the Sundiata Code, which theorized how Wakandan excellence was passed down through generations. The group's leader, N'Kono, realized that this final challenge required a blood sacrifice to always remember their roots, and so he spilled some of his blood on the obelisk, causing it to activate a holographic image of M23-671A's star system. Black Panther himself soon showed up, congratulating the trio on winning the Games. He explained to them that because of his disappointment at the fact that most of the other countries had abandoned space travel, it was up to Wakanda to expand itself into the stars, and they were chosen to make that happen.; Before he could go on, Black Panther and the Makers noticed that there was a hidden barrier acting as a veil. Passing through, they discovered that it hid a dark sky where a second Earth stood near theirs. The Wakandans then witnessed the arrival of the Black Swan, an alternate version of Manifold and a group of armed soldiers. They confronted the strangers, demanding to know if this was their doing. Black Swan denied it, explaining to them that she had nothing to do with it for it was an incursion, and she had arrived to destroy Earth to prevent it from happening. She then ordered her men to open fire on the Wakandans, killing both T'Dori and Kimo. Black Panther and N'Kono attempted to get away, but the latter was struck as well, his last words being how he was now seeing the stars.; Once the universe was destroyed, it ultimately came back. The Makers were brought back as time was reverted back to before the incursions happened, right during the last task of the Games involving the obelisk. It proceeded exactly as last time, but in this time there were no incursions to interrupt them, and the Makers soon witnessed the launch of the Alpha Flight of the Wakandan space program.

When they came upon the town of Owlsley Nest, their militia had been wiped out by Lord Doom's forces, leaving the town vulnerable to the gang. The gang ate all the town's livestock and crops and then began eating the people. When Star-Lord entered Owlsley Nest, he found the remaining townspeople hold up in a church. When the Madrox Gang burst into the church, Star-Lord battled them but had trouble fighting them as every injury inflicted with the exception of a killing head shot caused the Madrox dupes to multiply. So, Star-Lord detonated one of his Element Guns to start a fire that was fueled by flammable liquids that killed off the entire gang.

+Kind: team
+Page: Magnum Force (Earth-616)
+Full name: Magnum Force
+Other aliases: Magnum Shells
+First appearance: Avengers Vol 3 8
+Created by: Kurt Busiek; George Pérez
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Evangeline, near Martinique, Caribbean Sea
+Weapons: By using Moses Magnum-provided technology, the Magnum Force claim to have the best equipment and training.
+Transportation: Hijacked commercial planes, Evangeline
+Notes: Marvel Atlas Vol 1 2, Costa Verde's entry, says that the Magnum Force used the passengers in the plane as hostages against the Avengers; but Avengers Vol 3 8 explicitly states that the Magnum Force did not use the hostages because they didn't really want to stop the Avengers.
+History:
+The Magnum Force was the name given by superhuman criminal and weapons manufacturer Moses Magnum to the personal army of mercenaries he used after being defeated when trying to invade Wakanda. Moses Magnum also used the words Magnum Force to name his own superpowerX-Men #119; Deathlok Vol 2 #25; Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z #12 and Marvel Legacy: The 1970s Handbook (They Who Wield Power's profile for the last two) and as his personal alias at several points, including while leading this army.; Being a renowned developer of advanced weaponry and technology, Moses Magnum outfitted his troops with advanced weapons including high-powered fans, chokc-blasts, radiation-proof wrappings and ultrasonic weapons. Some of the technology provided, such as the fast-deploying energy cage Powerprison 170 and the Power-Podium 310 to control other technologies and communicate via holograms, was also available for sale, possibly through Moses Magnum's company Magnum Munitions. A number of troops in Magnum Force were outfitted with a thick combat armor that gave them unspecified capabilities beyond extra protection; those troops were called Magnum Shells, thou this term was also used to talk about all of Moses Magnum's army.; At that point, Moses Magnum's earthquake-causing superpowers had been altered by his disappointed benefactor Apocalypse, so that Moses Magnum immediately and uncontrolably caused earthquakes whenever he was standing on solid ground. Thus, Magnum moved his base of operation to a boat - the floating resort Evangeline in the Caribbean Sea, near Martinique, known because there was no need to take her to any harbor, where he prepared a plan to recover control over his superpowers, then cause a massacre that would satisfy Apocalypse. He heard of a Rand-Meachum-designed experimental seismic cannon he expected could be used on him to alter his biology again, and prepared a plan so that Magnum Force could steal it while it was being transshipped in the John F. Kennedy International Airport, New York City. The plan included causing a ruckus in the airport to attract attention while a smaller team stole the plane with the cannon. Due to his state, Moses Magnum himself could not join the attack personally, as he would cause an earthquake in the airport that may damage the loot. Foreseeing that the superhero team Avengers would appear, Moses Magnum outfitted his men with weapons that would nullify each Avengers' advantage. They did not know that independent superhero Triathlon had been tracking the Magnum Force for a time and discovered about their plan to steal the cannon, hoping to stop them in the Airport.; Armed Magnum Force men smuggled into a passenger airplane destined for New York in South American country Costa Verde, where security was less strict, then hijacked the flight online One of the passengers was Costa Verdean superhuman Silverclaw (Maria de Guadalupe Santiago), who confronted the Magnum Force, but the Magnum Force threatened to kill the passengers lest she cooperated with them; she agreed as long as they do not harm any innocent, which they did because the attack on the airport was merely a distraction for the other team to steal the cannon.; In the airport, the Magnum Force bursted out of the airplane and shot the buildings with energy rifles, while superpowered Silverclaw prevented them from targetting civilians. This attracted the attention of the Avengers (Captain America, Firestar, Hawkeye, Justice and the Scarlet Witch), as their butler Jarvis was in the terminal waiting to receive an acquaintance. The Avengers were immediately captured by the Powerprison and Moses Magnum appeared as a hologram to sign his work and to claim that he will use this success against the Avengers as marketing for his weapons sale. The cage, and Moses Magnum's speech, were both stopped by Triathlon, who joined the fight at that point. The battle continued without a clear winner, then Triathlon had a chance to tell the Avengers that this was a mere distraction while the Magnum Force was stealing the cannon. At that point, one of Magnum's men was already in control of the cannon and threatened to use it against the Avengers - but then two other Avengers, Iron Man and Thor, arrived. The Magnum Force's strategy in that case was to demolish the buildings with the cannon so as to keep the Avengers busy while the Magnum Force retreated, and they did, hijacking the plane with the cannon. They failed to notice, thou, that Triathlon was stowawaying in it. They retreated to the Evangeline, where they delivered the cannon to Moses Magnum and remained onboard, in case they were needed as security.; After Magnum Force escaped, Silverclaw had a chance to explain herself to the Avengers, and joined them in the search of the cannon. Then, Triathlon managed to contact the Avengers to reveal where was Magnum and ask them for help. The Avengers infiltrated the Evangeline and found Magnum, being treated with the cannon by a woman named Matuscek. Magnum confronted the Avengers, first calling the Magnum Shells; but this time, in closer quarters, without innocents to protect, and with Triathlon and Silverclaw in their side, the Avengers overpowered the Shells. Moses Magnum, his powers restored and increased, fought the Avengers himself. The Avengers took the fight to Martinique, where Moses Magnum's powers created a crevice that swallowed him.; Moses Magnum survived working in criminal activities with common minions that were no longer referred to as Magnum Force. He came to lead a criminal organization called Kigali Clan; its relationship to the Magnum Force, if any, is unrevealed.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: International collective of leaders assembled by the Maker with the objective of exerting control over society
+Reality: Earth-6160
+Base of operations: Global
+History:
+===Ultimate Invasion===; In a world whose history was veered off course by the machinations of the Maker, he installed himself as imperator of the Earth. By 2023, the world was divided into seven major territories: the North American Union, the Society of South America, the European Coalition, the Upper and Lower Kingdoms, the Eurasian Republic, the Children of Eternal Light and Hi No Kuni.; After conducting numerous tests with iterations of experimental societies within his base of operations, the City, the Maker grew convinced that enduring peace was unattainable due to humanity's inherent nature. As a result, he established a secret council comprising the leaders of each sovereign territory. Together, they manipulated conflicts and alliances among their nations to unite their respective populations. In present day, the Eurasian Republic served as the designated "rogue state" that unified the other territories as a common foe, with the intention for this role to be rotated between each territory over time.; During a public congregation between the world leaders in the Maker's domain in Latveria, the imperator was attacked by a strike force sent from the future by his adversary, Kang. The world leaders worked together to subdue the invaders, but one of their members was killed in the process, Obadiah Stane of the North American Union. Afterward, the Maker's council convened in the Maker's Castle, reeling from the attack. Among them was present the co-leader of Stane's territory, Howard Stark. Since Stark was unvinvolved in his nation's political affairs, the council had to introduce to their insidious workings and the ideals behind them, but he rejected them.; After Stark betrayed the Maker, trapping him inside the City as it closed itself off from the rest of the world, the council gathered in Latveria again to discuss their course of action going forward in light of the Maker's absence, and agreed on waiting two years to see if the City opened up.; ===North American Union: The Spider, the Goblin and the Kingpin===; In the aftermath of the terrorist attack, the Council would be left unaware that Tony Stark and his assembled allies had survived the attempt on their lives by using the Immortus Engine to escape eight months into the future to June 2024. Afterwards, they would start the next phase of their mission to dismantle them, commencing with the dispatch of boxes containing the necessary means to facilitate the restoration of intended superheroic identities among individuals affected by the Maker back to January 2024. One successful recipient, of at least two, was Peter Parker, who had been prevented from being bitten by a radioactive spider at the age of fifteen. Willingly bitten and gifted with a Picotech stealth suit, the thirty-five-year-old Daily Bugle reporter began a vigilante career behind the backs of his wife and children, eventually taking on the name Spider-Man.; But months earlier, Harry Osborn, son of the late Norman and Emily Osborn and co-CEO of Oscorp Industries with his wife Gwen Stacy, had been sold the assets of Stane/Stark Industries by Wilson Fisk, a subordinate of Henri Dugarry as the new covert ruler of the East Coast of the North American Union. With the help of Oscorp scientist Otto Octavius, Harry would discover Howard Stark's historical records and the truth about his world, and in response, with Otto's help, modify an Iron Man armor in an attempt to eliminate Fisk and his superiors. Though partially kept out of the public eye due to Fisk's control of the media, Harry's various attempts on Fisk's life, along with his armor design, would bring him enough notoriety to earn him the nickname Green Goblin.; Spider-Man and the Green Goblin's activities would not go unnoticed by Duggari, who would see them as a threat to the Council and its rule over the North American Union, and would pledge his resources to aid Fisk's attempt to eliminate them. The Kingpin, however, would refuse and decide to go his own way, gathering all five of the figureheads who controlled New York's boroughs under him into the Sinister Six to play a game of cat and mouse with the vigilantes.; ===Upper and Lower Kingdoms: The Wakandan Insurrection===; In February 2024, Lord Khonshu and Lord Ra would begin a violent annexation of West Africa, seeking both an ancient source of power that predated their domain and the eradication of the isolated but technologically advanced nation of Wakanda, which lay within the borders of their territory.

After releasing sleeping gas into the Vault, Iron Man was confronted by three Mandroids and Hawkeye, who attempted to stop his pursuit of armored individuals. Upon defeating all four opponents, Iron Man placed Negator Packs on the Mandroids, rendering their armor useless.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Baron Heinrich Zemo, to gain revenge upon Captain America, formed a team comprised of the foes of the captain's friends, the Avengers.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Bagalia City, Bagalia (Under the Shadow Council and Baron Helmut Zemo); (Under Crimson Cowl (Justine Hammer)) Symkaria, Mount Charteris, near Burton Canyon, Colorado and (under Baron Heinrich Zemo), a mountain lair in the Amazon Jungle, South America
+Affiliation: Formerly:; Army of Evil
+Equipment: Each team member equipment.
+Weapons: Each team member arsenal.
+Notes: In Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes Vol 1 Thor apparently named this group of villains "Masters of Evil" The name strengthened after the speech of the Black Knight (Garrett) in Avengers Vol 1 6.; The story of the fourth incarnation of the team, "Avengers Under Siege", is generally considered the definitive Masters of Evil storyline.
+History:
+===The Avengers meet their Masters===; After being responsible for Captain America's demise during World War II, the aristocratic Nazi scientist Baron Heinrich Zemo retreated to South America. Baron Zemo was infuriated upon learning about Captain America's return and schemed for revenge by gathering enemies of his nemesis' teammates and Earth's Mightiest Heroes, the Avengers. He enlisted the Black Knight, a foe of Hank Pym and the Wasp, the Melter, an adversary to Iron Man, and the Radioactive Man, an opponent to the God of Thunder Thor. Zemo and his Masters of Evil caused terror in New York City using Adhesive X, prompting the Avengers to intervene. When his accomplices were subdued and arrested by Captain America and the Avengers in the streets of New York, Baron Zemo beat a hasty retreat.; Still eager for revenge, Baron Zemo was approached by the exiled Asgardian enemies of Thor, the beautiful Enchantress and the brute Executioner, in a failed scheme to seduce Thor into fighting against the other Avengers which got them lost in another dimension. Enchantress returned the Masters of Evil to their home reality. In a subsequent plan, the Masters empowered the corrupt businessman Simon Williams as the apparently heroic Wonder Man to infiltrate the Avengers and gain their trust. Unpredictably, Wonder Man was inspired by Earth's Mightiest Heroes and turned against his murderous masters, ultimately sacrificing his life to save the Avengers. The Masters of Evil escaped one more time.; The Masters of Evil were unexpectedly assisted by the master of time Immortus, who had his own plans for the Avengers. To prove his might, Immortus kidnapped the Avengers' teenager ally, Rick Jones, and tricked Captain America into believing the Avengers had been responsible for the boy's disappearance. Eventually, Immortus' minions were overpowered by the Avengers and he chose to abandon the fight. The Masters of Evil saw this as an opportunity to strike, but met defeat. Enchantress then decided to travel back in time to a moment before meeting Immortus, preventing their interaction. As such, the Avengers had no recollection of a battle where they were victorious against the Masters.; Finally, Baron Zemo had Enchantress and Executioner free Black Knight and the Melter from jail, as Radioactive Man had been deported to his native country China. While his Masters battled the Avengers, Baron Zemo captured Rick Jones. Captain America and Zemo dueled in South America for Jones' safety. Blinded by the glare from his opponent's shield, Baron Zemo fired his death ray wildly and perished in the ensuing rockslide. Meanwhile, without a leader, the remaining members were defeated by the Avengers after Thor transported Black Knight and Melter to another dimension so their battle would not destroy the city of New York, an opportunity Enchantress and Executioner took to escape. The Masters of Evil were no more and their end led the Avengers to alter their roster.; ===An Enemy Within===; The legacy of the Masters of Evil was carried on by a villain with no face and no identity, the mysterious Crimson Cowl. The Crimson Cowl maneuvered the Avengers' butler Edwin Jarvis into selling them the blueprints to the Avengers' security systems to launch a surprise attack in the Avengers Mansion. The revived group was formed by Radioactive Man, the Melter, the vicious Whirlwind, the master of sound Klaw and the new Black Knight, nephew of his predecessor. The new Black Knight had only joined the group to betray them to the Avengers, but was intercepted by the Masters when trying the warn the Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Their raid was successful, and the Masters took the Avengers captive with the Cowl revealing himself to be Jarvis, much to the Avengers' horror.; As the Avengers attempted to break free from their opponents, they learned Jarvis had been hypnotically suggested to assume the Crimson Cowl identity. In fact, the leader of the Masters of Evil was the robot Ultron-5, a living automaton created by the Avenger Hank Pym who had rebelled against his "father". Ultron-5 disposed of Jarvis, who managed to survive and join the Black Knight to initiate the Avengers' rescue. Thus, the new Masters of Evil were defeated by the Avengers, but Ultron-5 escaped, to plague the Avengers subsequently without human accomplices. No longer lead by Ultron-5, the remaining Masters still worked together, attacking the Avengers during Tom Fagan's super hero Halloween festivities. The all-female team known as the Liberators, secretly led by Enchantress in disguise, overpowered the Masters, causing its apparent dissolution.; ===The Trial of Hank Pym===; The Masters of Evil were reorganized by the evil scientist Egghead, enemy of Hank Pym. Looking for accomplices to aid him in his criminal ventures, Egghead broke Tiger Shark, Whirlwind, the Scorpion, and Moonstone out of prison. However, before they could be of use to him, Whirlwind sneaked away to stalk the Wasp by himself. The others followed him to the Avengers Mansion to try to keep him out of trouble, but they all ended up in combat with the Avengers and lost.; However, this did not stop Egghead from scheming against his long-time nemesis Pym, who stood trial for treason after leaving the Avengers in disgrace and being framed by Egghead. Egghead freed Moonstone and Tiger Shark to join him one more time, completing the group with the Radioactive Man, the Shocker, and the Beetle. Egghead sought final vengeance by staging a situation where Pym would be seen as a criminal ally of the Masters of Evil as they freed him from the courtroom. The Avengers were unable to prevent the kidnapping. The Avengers learned about Egghead's plan from a captured Shocker. In his lair, Egghead coerced Pym into working on a longevity serum. Pym pretended to go along with him but instead invented a device that enabled him to defeat Egghead and virtually all the other Masters single-handedly. In a last stand, Egghead was killed when an arrow shot by the Avenger Hawkeye caused a gun he was aiming at Pym to misfire. The Masters of Evil were apprehended, surrendering pacifically.; ===Under Siege===; The most effective team was assembled by Baron Helmut Zemo, the son of the previous Zemo. Inheriting his father's hatred of Captain America, Zemo sought to assemble the most formidable Masters of Evil ever. Rather than follow past practice with a team roughly the size of the active Avengers roster, Zemo decided to organize a veritable army of superhuman criminals, to assure victory over the Avengers. Zemo's long-range design for the largest assemblage of costumed criminals is not at present known, though he stated his intent to defeat the West Coast Avengers and the Fantastic Four as well.; The Avengers dealt with apparently isolated incidents regarding super villains escaping prison to secretly join these new Masters. Moonstone publicly attempted to damage the reputation of the Avenger Namor by pretending to be the widow of one of his victims. When defeated and arrested, she was greeted by the Masters of Evil Absorbing Man and Titania, who impersonated police officers to recruit her to their team. The next recruit was Yellowjacket, broken free by the Grey Gargoyle and Screaming Mimi, though her rescuers were arrested by the Avengers.; The reformed version of the team counted with many other members, namely the Wrecking Crew, Mister Hyde, Goliath, the Fixer, and Tiger Shark. Considering that in unity the Masters had power, Zemo planned to take over the Avengers Mansion to humiliate the Avengers. As a master strategist, he played on the Avengers' relationships to pick them off one by one on scouting missions, performing various tasks in preparation for the assault. Meanwhile, he maintained his command by preventing subversion from his rival Moonstone and giving his more physical recruits their promised action without striking too soon.; The Avengers were subdued one by one as the Masters of Evil placed their mansion under siege. Namor had taken a leave of absence to reclaim Atlantis, leaving the team one Avenger short; Black Knight was captured; Captain Marvel was trapped in the Darkforce Dimension by Zemo's ultimate weapon, the insane Blackout; and Hercules was beaten into a coma by the Wrecking Crew. Captain America was also defeated, being tortured by Baron Zemo by watching Jarvis being brutalized by Hyde. The Avengers Mansion was also trapped inside an impenetrable Darkforce dome cast by Blackout, leaving the Wasp as the only remaining active Avenger.; Deciding to take revenge on the Masters of Evil, the Wasp assembled the Avengers to end the siege to the Avengers' home. She was joined by a freed Captain Marvel, Thor and Doctor Druid, who overpowered the Masters. As his last act, Baron Zemo attempted to have Blackout drag the entire Mansion into the Darkforce Dimension, with no success. Ultimately defeated by Captain America, Baron Zemo perished in the battle; the Masters of Evil were no more, though they had been successful in having the Avengers' lives invaded in many ways.; ===Infinity War===; In face of the super heroic community gathering to oppose the vile Magus, Doctor Octopus took the opportunity to reassemble the Masters of Evil and carry on the plan of seizing control of the Avengers Mansion as its residents were not home. He was joined by agents he judged to be too insignificant and easy to control, namely the Absorbing Man, Titania, Oddball, Jackhammer, Powderkeg, and the uncertain Yellowjacket. and bore little resemblance to any other incarnation of the team. Unpredictably, the Masters found the Avengers Mansion occupied by the cosmic heroes from the future known as the Guardians of the Galaxy, who visited the past in search of the Royal Inhumans. Even more unexpectedly, Yellowjacket betrayed her team, assisting the Guardians defeat them by following heroic tendencies.; Doctor Octopus was able to overcome his disadvantages by surprisingly having replacement lackeys in the form of the Shocker, Puff Adder, and Gargantua. However, the battle between the two teams was interrupted by enemies they had in common: the Magus' soul doppelgängers, who wished to replace their super powered counterparts. Calling a truce, Guardians of the Galaxy and Masters of Evil joined forces to combat their devilish clones. In the end, with the doppelgängers destroyed, the Masters of Evil rebelled against Doctor Octopus for his arrogance.; ===Justice Like Lightning===; Baron Helmut Zemo, succumbed to frustration due to his inability to defeat his enemies, made contact with Goliath, who was trapped in a parallel dimension. Recruiting the tinkerer Fixer to help retrieve his ally, he idealized reforming a team of Masters of Evil. His next lackey was Screaming Mimi, who was in deep grief after the death of her criminal partner and lover Angar the Screamer. Beetle was approached next and joined the Masters as a way to leave a career of failures. Zemo's plans to destroy the Avengers were foiled when most of Earth's Mightiest Heroes were declared killed in action against the psychic villain Onslaught. Without a cause, he embraced Goliath's idea, initially uttered as a joke, of replacing the Avengers and the Fantastic Four in their heroic duty. Masqueraded as heroes with new identities, the Masters of Evil broke Moonstone out of the Vault to round up the team. In the staged break-up, the Masters arrested many super villains they once had as allies to build a reputation. Completely rebranded, with new technology and appearances, the Masters of Evil were rebaptized by Baron Zemo as the apparently heroic Thunderbolts.; For detailed information about the rebranded team of Masters of Evil, see Thunderbolts; ====Crimson Cowl's Masters of Evil====; In light of the Thunderbolts' public announcement, a new group of Masters of Evil was gathered by the mysterious Crimson Cowl as mercenaries for hire, in a roster formed by Tiger Shark, Klaw, Cyclone Man-Killer and Flying Tiger. First working for Hydra, they tried to garner the favor of the New York crime families, coming into direct conflict against the Black Widow. This incensed Baron Zemo, who had assumed the patriotic identity of Citizen V, and the rest of the Thunderbolts as they witnessed the Masters' legacy turned into mere mercenary work. When the Thunderbolts faced the Masters of Evil in battle, the mercenaries escaped due to the blinding flash that accompanied the Crimson Cowl's teleportation effect. When next they fought, Crimson Cowl escaped again.; The Thunderbolts ultimately turned on Zemo, but found themselves fugitives hated by heroes and villains alike. The Crimson Cowl saw this as an opportunity to induct the remaining Thunderbolts into her Masters of Evil. She sent Cyclone to bait the Thunderbolts into walking into an ambush. After defeating the Thunderbolts, she made her proposal of either joining her and enjoy all the amenities that come with being in her organization or defying her and being exposed to their enemies. The Thunderbolts were given time to think over the situation, a period they used to insist on building a reputation as heroes to the public. However, when combating the burning Charcoal, the Masters of Evil sabotaged their operation to prevent them from achieving success. Moonstone decided to take the Masters of Evil down in retaliation. When next they fought, the Crimson Cowl had advantage until Hawkeye, disguised as the Dreadknight, saved the Thunderbolts. Hawkeye offered to become the Thunderbolts' new leader and, as one of his first actions, promised the media the capture of the Masters of Evil.; With this revelation, the Masters of Evil prepared themselves to combat the Thunderbolts simultaneously with a plan to use a weather machine to blackmail world leaders for an insanely huge amount of money. The whole operation counted with an army of Masters of Evil in addition to the more public core team, namely Boomerang, Cardinal, Joystick, Man-Ape, Constrictor, Eel, Quicksand, Sunstroke, Blackwing, Shockwave, Scorcher, Slyde, Icemaster, Dragonfly, Bison, Aqueduct, Shatterfist, Lodestone, Supercharger. Outnumbered, the Thunderbolts infiltrated the Masters of Evil's headquarters in Mount Charteris to put an end to the potential meteorological devastation. Moonstone exposed her allies, inciting a chaotic fight as she fled with the Crimson Cowl. Moonstone ultimately betrayed the Crimson Cowl, unmasking her to the Thunderbolts, who were shocked to find Dallas Riordan, their former liaison to the office of the New York city mayor. In reality, Dallas Riordan was actually the new Citizen V who had been framed for having interfered with the Crimson Cowl's plans. At the last moment the real Crimson Cowl had teleported out of her costume and placed a captive Riordan into it to frame her.; The free Crimson Cowl reformed the Masters of Evil to carry on Justin Hammer's legacy as a criminal mastermind. The new team counted with Machinesmith, Black Mamba, Hydro-Man, Cyclone, Man-Killer, Gypsy Moth, and Cardinal. Her plans involved capturing Plantman to threaten the world with a bio-toxin. They ambushed Plantman alongside his allies in the Thunderbolts, Hawkeye and Songbird, capturing him. Hawkeye convinced Gypsy Moth, Man-Killer, Cardinal and Cyclone that they were at risk by associating themselves with the Crimson Cowl. As such, they joined the Thunderbolts. The Thunderbolts alerted Silver Sable about the Cowl's chemical weapon and its potential use in Symkaria. The Crimson Cowl had her true identity revealed as Hammer's daughter, Justine, when confronted by Silver Sable and the Thunderbolts. However, they were subdued by the Masters of Evil. Unexpectedly, Plantman decided to deactivate the toxin, foiling the Cowl's plans. In the end, her Crimson Cowl was destroyed by Skein.; ===Shadow Council===; Max Fury and the Shadow Council organized a new incarnation of the Masters of Evil, which was discovered by the Secret Avengers during a mission run by Hawkeye and Captain America in Bagalia, an island nation run by criminals. Max Fury and the now expanded roster of Masters of Evil later stopped John Steele from escaping Bagalia with the Serpent Crown.; Following the destruction of Max Fury, Baron Helmut Zemo regained leadership of the Masters of Evil and control of Bagalia, and continued to expand group membership. Including teenage villains like the defunct Young Masters and former Hellfire Academy students among others and organizing them as the reformed Young Masters, the teenagers were personally supervised by Constrictor and occasionally dispensed to do the Masters' dirty work. Zemo also included Madame Masque as his right-hand woman, Constrictor and Hellstorm in his personal inner circle, organizing the Masters from Tower Zemo. Hellstorm transformed his portion of Bagalia City in a place inhabited by dark wizards, Vampires, Demons, and monsters while Constrictor's portion became the headquarters of the teenage members.; Following the events of Murderworld, Arcade had an audience with Zemo, demanding a position of power in the Masters. Zemo refused, claiming that his crimes were simply child abuse and didn't deserve to join them. However, he recognized that the technology and design of Murderworld was impressive and claimed the person who built it would be an asset and deserves a place with them. He revealed that Arcade's assistant Miss Coriander, who built Murderworld, had already joined them.; Hellstrom created a meat puppet of Arcade to run his Massacre Casino in Bagalia with Coriander in order to make everyone believe he still ran Murderworld while the real Arcade was kept prisoner by them. Later a Murderworld survivor, Cullen Bloodstone, began tracking down Arcade. He eventually tracks the fake Arcade to Bagalia, where he forms an alliance with the Masters. However, Hellstorm started influencing and controlling him. Other Murderworld survivors teleport to Bagalia in an attempt to rescue Bloodstone, and locate him at a bar. After a small fight, Cullen reveals his membership with the Masters of Evil. Constrictor and Masque arrange for Cullen to teleport the group to a nearby swanky party at Massacre Casino hosted by Arcade so that they can get revenge. The group disables Arcade's power supply, after which he is killed by Hazmat much to everyone's surprise. The group tries to flee but S.H.I.E.L.D. arrests them under suspicion for being members of the Masters of Evil. After the framed teenagers are visited by friends and family, Hellstrom teleports the group back to Bagalia, where Zemo offers the group a chance to truly join the Masters of Evil.; Following the Avengers' attack on Bagalia, the Masters of Evil got away on a hijacked Helicarrier with Arcade strapped to the front of it.; ===Lightmaster's Masters of Evil===; Lightmaster hired the Wrecking Crew to attack Alchemax and steal it's Quantum Machine. They were opposed by Sun Girl, and defeated when Spider-Man and his Superior Six arrive. After Wrecker reports back to Lightmaster, Lightmaster personally decides to become involved and brings his own Masters of Evil lineup for a rematch against Spider-Man and the Superior Six. In the battle, Absorbing Man and Titania destroy an Arachnaught dispatched to help the Superior Six and Blackout knocks Electro unconscious, disrupting his powers. At the end of the battle, Sun Girl, who Lightmaster realizes is his daughter, destroys the Quantum Machine and causes a mass explosion, in the process freeing the mind control of the Superior Six. It is unclear whether this lineup of the Masters of Evil is a second entity or simply members from Bagalia City on a job.; ===Baron Zemo's third Masters of Evil===; Baron Helmut Zemo later formed his fourth incarnation of the Masters of Evil with Klaw, Man-Killer, Tiger Shark, Whiplash, and the Wrecking Crew (Wrecker, Bulldozer, Piledriver, and Thunderball). They attacked Atlas until Jolt showed up to help him. The Masters of Evil subsequently managed to capture the Thunderbolts. Atlas, Fixer, and Moonstone defected from the Thunderbolts and sided with the Masters of Evil following a battle with the Thunderbolts that resulted in the apparent death of Man-Killer.; ====Working with Hydra's Army of Evil====; Afterwards, the new Masters of Evil joined the expansion Baron Zemo carried out for the enterprise of Hydra and its new leader, an alternate reality Captain America. Composed of other villain groups and those that weren't part of any of the villain groups, they formed the Army of Evil.; The Masters of Evil aided in Steve Rogers' plan to take over the United States by launching an attack on Manhattan along with the Army of Evil in order to lure out as many of America's superheroes as possible. The Masters were later teleported away while Baron Zemo used the Darkhold to boost the powers of Blackout and trap half of Manhattan in a Darkforce dome, trapping the superheroes who fought the Masters. The Masters later took part in a fight against the remaining superheroes in Washington, D.C. as Hydra moved toward the capital to secure its takeover of the country.; After Hydra took over the United States, the Masters of Evil along with the Army of Evil were all placed in stasis by Hydra out of fear of what they would do if they were allowed to remain free. When a contingent of America's superheroes who opposed Hydra's regime known as the Underground launched a massive assault against Hydra in Washington, D.C., Baron Zemo was ordered to awaken the Masters along with the Army of Evil to turn the tide. He was stopped by Black Panther and Winter Soldier before he could accomplish his task. After the Hydra regime fell, the Masters were likely freed from stasis and either forced to disband or arrested by the authorities.; ===One World Under Doom===; When Doctor Doom became Sorcerer Supreme and changed the world, the Avengers worked with an incarnation of the Masters of Evil consisting of Arcade, Baron Mordo, Doctor Octopus, MODOK Superior, Madelyne Pryor, and Mysterio. MODOK Superior was the one who "welcomed" Iron Man to the Masters of Evil.; Another branch of the Masters of Evil formed during this time where they took over Impossible City. It was led by Mad Thinker and consisted of Dreadknight and his Hellhorse, Exterminatrix, Madcap, Mister Hyde, and a rebuilt Quasimodo in the form of Quasimodo Mark X. They had opposition in Sam Wilson's Captain America form, Impossible City's conscious in Suit, and Black Panther. They managed to defeat the Masters of Evil.

+Reality: Earth-9997
+Base of operations: Ben Grimm's Yancy Street home, Manhattan, New York City, New York
+History:
+The Marvels are animated clay statues sculpted by Alicia Masters-Grimm, who created them and gave them life through a combination of her step-father's radioactive clay as well as her Terrigen Mist-spawned powers that give her the power to give life to the lifeless. Each of the clay Marvels were based on Earth's many heroes and sculpted to appear as they did in their prime. Originally, Alicia created them to help out with the house work around the Grimm family home. They followed Alicia's commands or anyone she wished to have control over them. They had limited independent thought and apparently they had particular talents, the Captain America statue apparently made a good apple pie.; When Captain America's initial counter-attack against the Skull's invasion of New York failed he noticed that the Skull's powers could only effect living beings with a mind of their own. He was unable to take control of the the Iron Avengers, nor the Hulk, and decided to use that to his advantage. His final attack involved the clay Marvels, while Cap secretly went into action disguised as the Captain America clay Marvel. When the Skull realized that the Marvels weren't alive and that he could not take control of them, it gave Cap the opportunity to get close to the Skull withut falling under his control.; With no other choice, Captain America was forced to kill the Skull by breaking the boy's neck, freeing everyone under his control. As the clay Marvels have not been seen since, it is presumable that they were all destroyed, and Alicia has not seen fit to create new ones.

The Masters of Evil were next seen using the Norn Stones to open portals between Earth and Asgard. It was then discovered that the Masters of Evil were just pawns in Loki's master plan as their one, true leader!; When the Enchantress failed to bring an Asgardian army to Earth and Loki was defeated, she wanted revenge from Zemo, searching every one of the Masters to find Zemo and kill him. After Chemistro was turned into gold with his own gun, Living Laser frozen in electric state, and Arnim Zola glued to the corpse of his Doughboy, Zemo asked for help to the Avengers, who wanted to use a magic nullifier on her to take her down.; When Enchantress arrived to the Avengers Mansion and took the Avengers and the rest of the Masters down, Zemo tried to use the last Norn Stone to kill her. The Masters betrayed the Avengers and attacked them, destroying the nullifier. When Enchantress was about to use the Norn Stone, Wonder Man sacrificed himself to destroy it. Enchantress was sent to Muspelheim where she found Surtur and the rest of the Masters were incarcerated in the Prison 42.

By the spring of 1945, the Trio and Lupo had committed a string of crimes that led to 11 murders, attracting the attention of Captain America and Bucky.; When the Trio attacked a local jewelry shop, Cap, Buck and the police arrived on the scene. They were easily trounced by the disguised apes whom Lupo ordered to take Bucky hostage. Lupo then forced Bucky to write a goodbye letter to Captain America to torment the hero. However, Bucky used the note to send a coded message to Cap that helped him deduce the location of Lupo's hideout. When Captain America arrived at the florist shop, Cap easily saw through Lupo's disguise. Lupo then ordered his apes to kill Bucky. When Captain America burst into the room where the apes were attacking Bucky. During the fight, Bucky grabbed Lupo's machine gun and gunned down the apes.

+The Marauders were a gang of outlaws who were active in Texas during the days of the American Frontier. To conceal their identities they wore body length sheets to mask themselves. Led by an outlaw named Fargo, the gang operated out of a cave located in the mist filled Valley of No Return. Their crime spree attracted the attention of masked gunslinger the Outlaw Kid. When the Marauders were next going to attack the Outlaw Kid's home town of Caliber City, this prompted stage coach operator Henry Evans to consider closing down his operations in the town. Learning of this, the Outlaw Kid convinced Evans and the sheriff to assist him in laying a trap for the Marauders. Sending out a stage coach with a lock box filled with rocks, the Outlaw Kid had the sheriff pose as the hero when attempting to stop the robbery. While the Marauders were fleeing from the phony Outlaw Kid, the real masked hero had dawned a full body sheet and infiltrated the group. The Marauders then were tricked into leading the Outlaw Kid into their base where he easily dismantled the organization and brought them to justice.

+History:
+When Mary Jane Watson was around fifteen years old, she came up with an ambitious proposal to her best friend Gwen Stacy - for them to become famous rock stars together. MJ's plan lay dormant until her senior year of high-school, when she and Glory Grant got into a fight that resulted in them being put in detention together, where they bonded over their shared love of music. Deciding to put together a rock group to play at prom, they recruited Gwen to be the drummer; while Betty Brant was recruited after hijacking the school's PA system to sing death metal songs. As a publicity stunt, Mary Jane, Glory, Betty, and Gwen participated in a charity wrestling match with Jen Walters; though Gwen bailed on the team intending to take the prize money for herself and ended up saving Ben Parker from a thief, his advice inspiring her to start using her superpowers selflessly.; The band - originally called MURDER FACE courtesy of Betty - was set to perform at the school's prom, but this was derailed by Peter Parker's transformation into the Lizard and subsequent battle with Spider-Woman. The group disbanded in the wake of Peter's funeral, but the members regrouped as the Mary Janes and channeled their grief into their music. At some point, the band's manager Randy Robertson came across a talented street performer named Felicia Hardy and recruited her as a second vocalist, but she eventually left the group after nearly strangling Mary Jane with a mic cord.; Two years after they graduated high school, the Mary Janes' first major gig was disrupted when Gwen arrived late and then bailed on them to fight the Rhino, but the ensuing publicity lead to their new song - "Face It Tiger" - becoming a modestly successful hit. Despite their success, MJ and Gwen had a falling out that nearly broke up the band, though they eventually reconciled and regrouped.; With Gwen's on-off membership due to her activities as Spider-Woman and later Ghost-Spider, the band struggled to find success. Following Gwen spending a year in prison due to her vigilante activities, the Mary Janes regrouped in an effort to recapture their former fame. Ultimately, the band was broken up when Gwen was forced into exile on Earth-616 by Sue Storm and Johnny Storm, and Mary Jane was abducted by the Jackal and accidentally teleported to Earth-616 by Gwen.

+Equipment: Gregor Smerdyakov's boost fruits
+Transportation: New Marauder; formerly Kitty Hawk, Marauder
+History:
+===Ahoy, Mutants!===; In the mutant-exclusive nation founded by Professor X and Magneto on the island of Krakoa, Emma Frost was invited to oversee their international trade relations. As the White Queen of the Hellfire Trading Company, Frost was given a seat in the Quiet Council, Krakoa's first governing body, in return for exporting Krakoan miracle drugs to the rest of the world. Hellfire was awarded a second seat on the Council for the Black King, Sebastian Shaw, ensuring he would handle the black market trade with countries that rejected Krakoan sovereignty. As a final condition, Frost demanded for a third seat for a person of her choosing. Meanwhile, Kate Pryde learned in disappointment she could not interact with Krakoan gateways for transit. Having hijacked a boat to get to the island alongside Lockheed, she was contacted by the White Queen, who offered her the chance to captain a ship to liberate mutants trapped inside hostile countries and unable to reach Krakoa by themselves. After freeing captive mutants from a rogue group of Russian agents with the help of Iceman, Storm, and Pyro, she named her crew the “Marauders” to distance the X-Men from their future illegal activities as raiders.; The Marauders sailed the oceans acting as hijackers to some and heroes to many, posing a rising interest to the U.S. Naval Intelligence. Duringone of their operations, the Marauders took control of one of the Black King's ships commanded by Batroc the Leaper. Instead of sending the cargo to its original destination, an African nation, the Black King decided to sell it to an American rich club, a much more profitable deal. Such an intervention by the Marauders attracted the Black King's hatred, which would only grow even further when Pryde was officially appointed as the Hellfire Trading Company's Red Queen. After Bishop joined the Marauders, they were given a proper ship, the Marauder, and kept performing rescue missions over the globe. Pryde and Bishop traveled to Taipei to investigate the alleged disappearance of Lim Zhao. After a risky entrance, they discovered the kidnapping allegations were a ruse orchestrated by his wife, Chen Zhao, who was an adamant mutant hater and wished to use mutants as scapegoats. After the mutant pirates revealed her lies to the public during one of her speeches, Zhao formed a secret coalition with a rising anti-mutant organization: Homines Verendi.; In the meantime, Shaw schemed to seize control of the Hellfire Company for himself. Confident that Pryde's inability to pass through the Krakoan gateways also meant that the Five would be unable to resurrect her if she died, he hired Homines Verendi to attack his own son, Shinobi, and lure Pryde out to ambush her while she was alone. After immobilizing Lockheed and dropping him into the water, Shaw wrapped Pryde in Krakoan vines that nullified her powers, sinking her into the water. Though Lockheed survived, Pryde was drowned to death. The rest of the team learned of Pryde's disappearance when they arrived with some rescued mutants to Island M, but could not find their captain there as expected. Bishop went to Madripoor, where he found Pryde's lifeless body in the Homines Verendi's possession. Joined by Iceman and the White Queen, Bishop secured her body from the Verendi, before they could autopsy the corpse. While the Five tried to create a cloned body husk for Pryde, the Marauders kept bringing mutants safely to Krakoa and fighting the threat of the Homines Verendi. After eighteen attempts, Pryde was finally revived much to the joy of everyone, except Shaw. He was then tortured by Frost, Storm, Pryde, and Lockheed for his actions against the Marauders, being blackmailed into ceasing his vile activities.; During the symbiote invasion caused by the dark lord Knull, Storm and Cyclops were infected and brainwashed. Bishop was tasked by Beast to retrieve them, but, while en route, the Marauders found themselves targeted by brutal attacks in the North Atlantic. The group unexpectedly ran into a ship whose crew was involved in human trafficking. Under Magneto's suggestion, the Marauders sent the human victims to Island M before docking at New York City to fight Knull and his lackeys. In New York City, the Marauders, accompanied by the White Knight Callisto, arrived at the old Hellfire Club Mansion, which was at the moment being plundered by Conan the Barbarian, Deadpool, and the Night Flyer. Following a brief confrontation, the Marauders were then joined by the infiltrators in a failed attempt to free Storm and Cyclops.; ===Madripoor's Liberators===; Pryde traveled to Madripoor to thank the people who had taken care of Lockheed while she was gone, where she learned that the Verendi were trying to raze Lowtown in order to gentrify it. To prevent them from doing so, the Hellfire Trading Company outbid them in buying multiple properties to ensure the safety of the people, including the creation of a free hospital for the local community. Revolted with this affront, the Verendi unleashed the new Reavers, composed of people who had been maimed by mutants. In their attack, the Reavers successfully caused an international incident that led the Marauders to be banned from Madripoor. With their protectors gone, the people of Lowtown were pillaged and had their houses destroyed by the Reavers. Captain Pryde swam through the sewers to plant a secret Krakoan Gateway and allow a small team of Morlocks to sneak into the city and fight the Reavers. Shortly after that, Storm quit the team in search of new experiences.; During the Hellfire Gala, the Marauder was severely damaged by Solem when piloted by the White Bishop. The incident destabilized the Krakoan black market and, as a result, Hellfire warehouses in Ireland were raided by Shaw's criminal customers and Verendi's Reavers. Banshee asked Frost for backup in one of these warehouses, prompting Frost, Pryde and Lockheed to assist him alongside Tempo and Jumbo Carnation. Due to Tempo's efficient performance in defeating the troublemakers, Pryde offered her a place with the Marauders. When the scoundrel known as Eden Rixlo landed on Planet Arakko looking for Emma Frost, she went to Port Prometheus with the Marauders to meet him. Frost was responsible for stealing Rixlo's morphing spaceship, the Mercury. Under Shaw's suggestion, Frost and the Marauders decided to pay Rixlo for the ship, a deal he gladly accepted. However, Rixlo betrayed the Marauders by kicking them out of the Mercury in outer space alongside Frost and Shaw. Thanks to the Marauders, the group made their way back to the Mercury, seizing control of it and abandoning Rixlo on Arakko.; On board of the Mercury, sailing to Madripoor, the Marauders were attacked by Fin Fang Foom, who wished to acquire their whiskey cargo. The threat was stopped by Iceman. On Madripoor, the Marauders Red Bishop and Pyro, impersonating arms dealers, tried to fool the Verendi with a deal concerning a fleet of old S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. The Verendi saw through the ruse when the real dealers arrived on the scene, leading to a final battle between the Verendi and the Marauders for the vast amount of money the Marauders had acquired. After the victorious fight, Pyro decided to leave the Marauders to go on a book tour, while Iceman shared his need for a vacation. The Red Queen and the Red Bishop, as the remaining Marauders, expressed their intention to carry on their adventures as pirates with a new crew.; ===Threshold===; Captain Pryde decided to focus on rescuing mutants, distancing the Marauders from the Hellfire Trading Company's medicine affairs. With Bishop's help, a new crew was partially assembled with the addition of the telepath Psylocke and the chronomancer Tempo. The Marauders were joined by Aurora and Somnus in order to recover Daken, who had gone missing while doing work for X-Factor Investigations. Daken was found in Westchester, where the sadist Brimstone Love publicly brutalized him. In the name of his Theater of Pain, Brimstone Love spread a narrative for humans and mutants about Krakoa being a failed initiative based on segregation, which inherently contradicted Charles Xavier's original dream of racial coexistence. The Marauders were able to save Daken, but Brimstone Love managed to escape. Back to Krakoa, the Mercury was revamped as the New Marauder, ready to host a new crew of mutant rescuers.; In one of their missions, the Marauders saved Fever Pitch from an angry mob in Wyoming. Pryde had the Marauders specifically interested in mutant-related crisis over the globe. After Nature Girl's X-Men brutally attacked workers on a oil rig in the Arctic Ocean, she had an emergency response team assembled by Bishop to help the victims. Magik teleported these Marauders to the site as they wore X-Men uniforms in order to remedy the bad impression Nature Girl had conveyed about mutants. Wind Dancer, Brutha Nature, Birdy, Triage and Alchemist composed the team.; In order to aid their mission, Frost gifted Pryde with the Kara Katuça, a Mysterium artifact that contained a treasure map that would guide the Marauders' new adventures. Following the mapped indications, Pryde reached a hidden region of Krakoa that housed Cassandra Nova. Nova revealed to Pryde that the note referred to prehistoric mutants who struggled for their lives in Shi'ar space. For her knowledge, Nova joined the Marauders in their quest to liberate mutants who had been imprisoned by the Shi'ar for millennia. As the crew sailed for space, they were intercepted by Erik the Red of the Kin Crimson, who wanted to prevent the truth about the first generation of mutants from being made public. The Marauders escaped, getting into contact with Empress Xandra to expose the nature of their mission. Xandra accompanied them to the Krag prison-planet where Kin Crimson betrayed and assassinated her. Captain Pryde was killed in action as they fought back. Upon learning through Chronicle about the origins of the mutants they wished to save, the Threshold, the Marauders embarked on a trip to the past to collect Shi'ar timedrivers that stored locked Thresholders. Through Krag's pandimensional portals they arrived on Avalon, when it was beomg ravaged by Nemesis. The Marauders furtively secured the storage device while Nova combated Nemesis. Having accomplished their goal, the Marauders returned to present-day Krakoa, where they were psychologically evaluated by Birdy to cope with the pain inflicted by their recent crises.; Being resurrected on Krakoa in time for the second Krakoan Hellfire Gala, Captain Pryde was introduced to Cerebra, a time traveler from the future whose genome-recording and mind-storage abilities posited an alternative way to access the timedriver that stored the Thresholders. She was able to send the Thresholders to resurrection in Arbor Magna. The Marauders welcomed Theia, Crave and Amass to Krakoa. The trio asked for help in their war against bacterial opponents. Captain Pryde accepted to help, but Cassandra Nova alerted them about ttheir certain demise since the enemies of the Thresholders were the X-Men's past adversaries Sublime and Arkea. In the past, the Marauders met the thriving mutant society of Thresholders. Another hidden enemy in the past was Stryfe Cassandra Nova's infectious mind incapacitated Sublime and Arkea, effectively protecting Threshold. Before returning to the present, however, Pryde decided to abandon the treacherous Cassandra Nova in the past. Back to their timeline, the Marauders resumed their mission. Daken was able to finish Brimstone Love and his Theater of Pain. Moreover, Pryde used the genomic material in the ruins of Genosha to paradoxically give rise to Threshold. Afterwards, the Marauders presumably disbanded following the tragic events of the third Hellfire Gala, which culminated with Pryde assuming the assassin ninja identity of Shadowkat and the very collapse of Krakoa.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Counter-Earth
+History:
+The Masters of Evil were a group of villains spawned through the time-space rift in the Gamma core on Avengers Island. Their membres included The Black Knight, Radioactive Man, Whirlwind, Melter and Klaw.; They would attack Avengers Mansion following the groups battle with the Enchantress' Lethal Legion. The Masters were easily defeated by the Avengers and while Captain America and Iron Man were called off on other business, they were left in the care of Hawkeye and Hellcat. They would be visited by Loki who was then absorbing beings that were unique to Counter-Earth to boost his power. He would absorb the Masters of Evil, and coerce Hawkeye and Hellcat to join his cause. Ultimately, Loki would be defeated and all those he absorbed were expelled from Loki.; The Masters of Evil would regroup, however Klaw would not rejoin the team and his fate remains unrevealed. Being absorbed by Loki had a profound effect on at least two members of the Masters of Evil: Radioactive Man would grow silent and eventually not speak at all, and the Melter would enter a near catatonic state muttering about his glimpses of the future.; As time went on, the Avengers and other heroes were returned to their native reality of Earth-616, and the Counter-Earth pocket dimension would be manipulated by The Dreaming Celestial throwing the Earth into social, political, and ecological chaos. The Black Knight, listening to the Melter's visions would encourage the Black Knight to attempt to become a major player in the power struggle to control the Earth.; To this end, he made a deal with Atlantean Warlord Krang to obtain the Trumpet Horn of Atlantis. Krang would give it to the Black Knight to summon Giganto the whale. What the Black Knight was unaware of the fact that Giganto was killed in a battle against the Fantastic Four a year earlier, and that Krang hoped that the Black Knight would use the horn which would summon man sea creatures and further flood the United States. Unaware of this betrayal, the Black Knight would betray Krang himself, dispatching Whirlwind and Radioactive Man to slay Krang and his minions. This would be accomplished by irradiating Lake Michigan, literally microwaving the Atlanteans. However, Chen Lu would over do it, killing all the fish in the lake.; Seeking an alliance with Dr. Doom who was then attempting to take over Counter-Earth, the Black Knight would attempt to seek an audience with the Latverian monarch. To this end, the Masters would recruit both Titanium Man and the Crimson Dynamo. Becoming aware of the fact that Whirlwind was planning on skipping out on the Masters of Evil, the Black Knight would dispatch Radioactive Man to kill him.; Caught in the act of fleeing, Whirlwind would convince the Radioactive Man to let him live, and he would flee Chicago seemingly abandoning his costumed activities. The Black Knight would go to the Baxter Building to meed with Dr. Doom, offering him the Trumpet Horn of Atlantis as a gift. However, this would not be Doom, but rather one of his many Doombots and it would kill the Black Knight, Titanium Man and Crimson Dynamo as per his masters order. Doom himself not wanting to get involved with two bit tyrants with lowly ambitions of world domination.; The fate of the Radioactive Man and Melter are unknown.

Bulldozer and Piledriver were killed there before the two brothers were taken down.; After the bombing of Nitro at a mutant memorial, orchestrated by the S.H.I.E.L.D., Magnus launched an attack on Santo Rico. Hood stayed in the country to defend the inhabitants, and a part of his team chose to remain at his side as well. All of them were killed by the Red Guard, save for Titania who was thrown away from the country by her husband Absorbing Man, right to Mexico, soon before he was himself killed by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s telepaths.; Back to the U.S.A., she kept working in the Sapiens Rights League, spreading Hood's actions and words to the sapiens over the world. The Wizard and Chemistro, ashamed from having deserted the battle, rejoined the organization, supplying the activists with money, weapons, and technology. Soon, sapiens riots stated to pop here and there across the world.

+Trivia: Mayapan is a Pre-Columbian Mayan site a couple of kilometers south of the town of Telchaquillo in the municipality of Tecoh, approximately 40 km south-east of Mérida and 100 km west of Chichen Itza in the state of Yucatán, Mexico. According to legend, it was founded by Quetzalcoatl after the fall of Chichen Itza.
+History:
+A group of Mayans who had become superhuman beings called Mayapan rebelled against the Mayan Empire, and would make themselves false Gods and ruled over their own people in the 9th century.; Over a 1000 years ago, a small group of Mayans were expelled from their homelands by a rival Mayan tribe and into a region with poor hunting. They managed to find an isolated spring in the mountains that was connected to a subterranean pocket of Terrigen Crystals. Upon drinking from it, some of them died while others laid in a comatose state for several days. When they woke, they found they could speak to each other telepathically, a gift they considered from the gods. They returned home with an enormous advantage over their rivals, returning over several years to the spring to renew their abilities. Unable to take mates outside their own kind, their children were born with more power, such as mind control and the ability to sense human energies. The third generation found they had the power to absorb human energies using crystals and using blood-letting to slow the process. The fourth generation developed immortality, and the fifth generation forced their slaves to build pyramids upon physical power spots to gain more power, but two twins developed wisdom, rebelled and imprisoned the spirits of the Mayapan in crystals underground.; In recent years, the Mayapan managed to force their pyramid to appear in the Canadian Rockies where they were accidentally released by the She-Hulk, Lyra, and A-Bomb. Restored to life, Ixchel drained their life energies and started restoring the other Mayapan to life. Thunderbolt Ross investigated with Alpha Flight, but they were attacked and taken prisoner. The life forces of each of the heroes were used to restore more of the Mayapan to life. Ixchel continued to restore the other Mayapan to life and began plotting to take over the planet. The twins, Hunahpu and Xbalanque rescued Ross and gave him the means to resist the life-draining devices of the Mayapan. With Alpha Flight and the restored heroes, Ross managed to re-imprison the Mayapan without the ability to return to their bodies.

+Reality: Multiverse
+Notes: It is stated that the Masters of Evil successfully wasted 615 Earths. However, it does not appear that these Earths are in any particular order as Earth-56337 was one of the Earths affected.
+Trivia: Doom Supreme sees the others as nothing more than a pack of hunting dogs.
+History:
+===Origin===; The Multiversal Masters of Evil was formed when Mephisto approached Doom Supreme in Earth-616's past, who was observing the local prehistoric Avengers. Claiming that it was dangerous to challenge them alone, Mephisto suggested the time-travelling Doom Supreme to start a team. Doom accepted Mephisto's proposal and went on to recruit some of the deadliest villains in the Multiverse: Kid Thanos, Dark Phoenix and her pet Berserkers, King Killmonger, Ghost Goblin (Norman Osborn), and the Black Skull.; Naming themselves the Masters of Evil, the team hopped from universe to universe, slaying the local Prehistoric Avengers at the ancient past in order to rewrite the future as they saw fit. Their incursions were often opposed by a group of reality-hopping Deathloks deployed by Avenger Prime, the guardian of the God Quarry. Despite the continued interference of these Deathloks, the villains were able to conquer hundreds of Earths during their quest for power.; ===Hunting Deathloks===; As part of their agreement with the Council of Red, Doom and his Masters of Evil were not allowed to rewrite the timeline of Earth-616 until it was the last reality standing, thus the group didn't interact with it in any capacity since formation. However, when the Deathloks fled to present-day Earth-616 to warn its Avengers about their activities, the Masters had no other choice than to enter the reality to destroy them. Launching a multipronged attack, the Masters of Evil were able to destroy all Deathloks, but couldn't prevent the cyborgs from delivering their warning message to the Avengers, with whom the Masters came into conflict during their hunt. They left Earth-616 as soon as their mission was accomplished and after Doom Supreme spoke with Mephisto and Iron Inquisitor.; ===All-Rider===; The Black Skull took over Earth-21170 but was defeated by the native heroes and Robbie Reyes, the All-Rider. His variants arrived from other universes but were also defeated with help from the Goddesses of Thunder. He was soon replaced by another Black Skull variant.; ===Avengers Assemble===; Once the Masters of Evil were finished with the other Earths, they begun their attack on Earth-616's prehistory, but were met with fierce resistence from its prehistory Avengers and its time-travelling modern Avengers. Doom Supreme killed the prehistoric Starbrand and Ghost Rider, and blinded Agamotto, but after a nine day battle, the Avengers defeated most of the Masters of Evil which resulted in the deaths of Berserker, Ghost Goblin, and King Killmonger while Black Skull was defeated, deprived of his Symbiote which briefly possessed Kid Thanos, and left unconscious. Doom Supreme abandoned the Masters of Evil while Young Thanos and Dark Phoenix escaped; Dark Phoenix Mystique soon realized that Doom Supreme had been using them as a distraction. In secret, Doom Supreme had been amassing an army of his own counterparts, including Doom the Living Planet. He went on to attack his true target: the God Quarry.; Mephisto returned to Earth-616's genesis point and Kid Thanos informed him that his plan had failed while collecting the corpses of his fellow teammates and the Symbiote-less Black Skull. However, Mephisto was actually after the First Firmament beneath the Quarry and the Masters were simply pawns used to weaken the barrier. The red devil had been siphoning energy from all the universes the Masters of Evil had assaulted and used that power to absorb the remaining members of the Council of Red. While Doom Supreme and the Avengers fought each other, a supersized Mephisto began digging to reach the First Firmament.; Dark Phoenix attacked Doom Supreme in the the God Quarry, but he embraced her with a kiss instead. When Dark Phoenix tried to combat the Avengers gathered at the Quarry, she was struck down by the efforts of Firehair and Thor. Their attack also shattered the God Quarry. Doom Supreme attempted to harness the power of the First Firmament to take over the Multiverse but was overwhelmed and was petrified. Dark Phoenix recovered but was defeated once and for all by the Avengers' Phoenixes, ending the Masters of Evil.

+History:
+Meatspore Stormtroopers were a project developed by Dr. Constantin Racal based on blueprints stolen by the Soviets from an American spy agency. Their aim was to create savage warriors, but they proved unstable and uncontrollable, so the Soviets deactivated the Meatspores and kept them inside Science City 53. Years later, the Meatspore Stormtroopers reactivated due to their own instability and began attacking the base where they were being held. At this point, thanks to her contacts in the intelligence community, Major Valentina Rychenko contacted Pete Wisdom, who intervened with his X-Force, who clashed with the Metaspores until an electromagnetic pulse created by Jesse Bedlam destroyed all the Metaspores.

+Trivia: During the early 1980s, Marvel experimented with the then-new comic book specialty outlets by turning three of their monthly comic titles into "direct distribution only" titles. These comics were printed on harder paper stock than the newsprint commonly used for comics at the time, were removed from under the aegis of the Comics Code Authority, and were written and drawn with more mature, adult themes. They were only available via subscription or from a direct distribution comics specialty store. Micronauts was one of the three titles to receive this treatment. (The other two were Moon Knight and Ka-Zar.) For Micronauts, this treatment lasted from issue #38 to issue #58 (the final issue of the first series).; The Micronauts met the X-Men in an early four-issue miniseries from Marvel.; In the language of Homeworld, there is no letter corresponding to "z". Thus Karza was pronounced "Kartha."; In a pre-launch interview with a comic industry publication, Bill Mantlo (original comic series author for the Micronauts) said that the character representing the Mego toy "Galactic Warrior" would be called "Ja'an." Ultimately, he was renamed "Bug."; The Mego figure "Baron Karza" was introduced at a comics convention in New York in 1976, a year before George Lucas introduced the world to Darth Vader.; In Micronauts Vol 1 1, the profile of "Acroyear", who bears the name of his own race, states that "his name is unpronounceable." We never learn his true name, but it appears that the unexpected twin birth of him and his albino brother, Shaitan (a form of the word Satan and a character based on the toy, "Acroyear II"), left his parents struggling for names.; Microverses were once frequently believed to exist within atoms. More recent theories postulate them as dimensions to which the entry points are only accessible by shrinking size. Thus, Wayfinder and his people (originally inhabitants of the Macroverse) were shrunk by the Sword in the Star so that they could gain access to the Microverse.; The Cable series is the only instance when the name Micronauts is used. Strangely, Huntarr did not reappear, as he was a regular Micronaut since the later run of the first series and, being created by Mantlo, was not under licensing restrictions of any kind.; In a brief Alpha Flight cameo appearance, it is clear that the unnamed Micronaut character shown was originally intended to be Acroyear as there is noticeable evidence that the character had to be redrawn at the last minute due to licensing restrictions.; In Captain Marvel (third series), reference was made to a battle with Baron Karza and Thanos, the result being the elimination of all Microverses except one. The reference came with an editor's note mentioning a comic that was never printed or released.; During the mid to late 1990s, at least one animation company expressed an interest in developing a Micronauts animated series based around the comics characters. Character design artwork was produced and formerly available on the internet. It included character designs for Rann, Mari, Bug, Acroyear, Karza, and also Ray and Steve Coffin who were supporting characters during the Micronauts' early voyages on Earth. The design for Rann borrowed from Disney's Buzz Lightyear instead of the Marvel Comic. The other characters are mostly similar to their original designs. The only exception was that Acroyear, underneath his helmet, reportedly would have Caucasian instead of ebony skin. Other than character designs and rough profiles, very little was known as to how closely the animated series would have followed the comic. Failing to find a sponsor, this project was declared dead as of 1999.
+History:
+The Homeworld region of the Microverse was located far from Sub-Atomica, a region occasionally visited by the Fantastic Four and the original Ant Man. It was discovered by the people of the planet Ithaka (a reference to Ithaca where the legendary Odysseus was born). They were forced to find a new home after the death of their world, joining with refugees from worlds who had suffered similar fates, making the Homeworlders particularly diverse as a culture encompassing multiple species.; Led by Prince Wayfinder, the Homeworlders eventually settled on the then-prehistoric Earth. The Earth was depicted as still being inhabited by dinosaurs at the time of their arrival. Earth was also plagued by demons who fed on the dinosaurs and were hostile to the new arrivals in their territory.; Wayfinder and his leading warriors Agni, Kali, Mara/Maya, and Yama fought valiantly to defend their newly established colony but were eventually outnumbered. The power of The Sword in the Star (as well as the three Mystic Keys) relocated them to the unoccupied Homeworld molecule of the Microverse. The various races of the colonists populated the other local planets. Thus Wayfinder and the other prominent leaders of his people became the first Micronauts, and Wayfinder the original Time Traveller.; The capital atom of Homeworld is called First Zone; this is the former home of the Royal Family, and later the power base of Baron Karza and the location of his Body Banks. Other regions include Seazone (home of Micronaut allies Aquon and Coral), Aegypta (home of friends Prince Pharoid and Margrace), Polaria, and Dead Zone which contains the tomb of Wayfinder, Yama, Agni, Kali, and the rest of Homeworld's original Micronauts, although there is some question about whether Wayfinder is truly dead. Homeworld's sector contains not only the Homeworld molecule planet complex, but the planets Spartak (home of the Acroyears), Kaliklak (home of the Insectivorids and Bug), and Tropica (home of Devil).; On Earth, Wayfinder and his people most likely settled in what is now India. Artifacts of Wayfinder's people were found in India, most notably a monolith describing the three Mystic Keys. Due to some of the names and the similarity between Micronese (the Microversian written language) and Sanskrit, there is reason to believe artifacts left behind by Wayfinder and his people may have given rise to some of the Hindu legends. (As a note of trivia, in Micronese, there is no character that represents "z". Baron Karza was in fact pronounced Baron Kartha.); ===The Karza War===; During the interludes between Karza's defeats, the Micronauts embarked on a number of subquests, most notably, the search for the Mystic Keys of Wayfinder. This took them from Homeworld's Dead Zone, to Seazone, and even icy Polaria.; For an extended period, the Micronauts were marooned on Earth (having breached the spacewall) and were involved in many situations typical of finding oneself in a land of giants. They met a handful of Marvel heroes such as the Avengers, Doctor Strange (who also journeyed to the Microverse), Fantastic Four (who were more familiar with a different region of the Microverse), Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the X-Men, who aided the Micronauts and a temporarily allied Karza against The Entity who threatened to destroy the Microverse. The Entity proved to be a dark aspect of the personality of Professor X who had gotten loose once before.; The Micronauts also battled villains including the Man-Thing, Molecule Man, Psycho-Man, a miniaturized Doctor Doom and HYDRA. But mostly, they battled ordinary Earth objects and animals that were deadly at the Micronauts' size. On several occasions, the servants of Baron Karza followed the Micronauts to Earth and continued the battle there. It was here that an agent of Baron Karza killed Biotron.; For a time, it seemed that Prince Argon (aka Force Commander) turned against his former friends and allies to set himself up as a dictator over the Microverse following Karza's first defeat. It was finally discovered that Argon was an unwilling host of a soon to be reborn Karza. Sadly, as soon as this was discovered, Karza returned and broke free of Argon's body, killing Argon in the process.; Other notable Micronauts include Devil, Fireflyte, Pharoid, Slug, Margrace, Huntarr, Solitaire, and later replicas of Biotron and Microtron. Devil and Fireflyte, members of a species with a complex life-cycle, were stages of each other. Devil was killed by a Soul Survivor. Pharoid, Slug, and Margrace were killed in the Micronauts' major defeat by Baron Karza. Solitaire and the two roboid replicas served aboard Endeavor II during their new voyages after the final defeat of Baron Karza. The final defeat of Baron Karza was costly in that it took place only after Karza had already destroyed almost all life on Homeworld.; ===The New Voyages===; Weary of war, the Micronauts decided to make a pilgrimage of exploration and discovery away from the ruined Homeworld.; They discovered a starfaring race known as the Children of the Confluence of Stars and one of their representatives, Solitaire, became a member of the Micronauts. Together, they attempted to piece together a cosmic puzzle that pointed to the Makers, the godlike entities of the Microverse. They discovered that the Enigma Force was now an unstable force that threatened to destroy the fabric of the Microverse.; The Micronauts, under the partial guidance of Scion, a self described child of the Makers, discovered that the berserk manifestation of Enigma Force was the injured Worldmind of Homeworld. Using Baron Karza's technology, the Micronauts healed Homeworld by using the cells of their own bodies to initiate a Genesis effect. They sacrificed their lives so that their primal matter would serve to seed Homeworld and eventually give rise to new life.; ===The Microns===; Following the Onslaught crisis, Cable and several others journeyed to the Microverse to find Arcturus Rann, Mari, and Bug alive and apparently fighting a war against Psycho-Man. The Micronauts now called themselves the Microns.; Baron Karza and Thanos battled and the result was the elimination of all microverses except one.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Team comprised of paranormal individuals
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Cypress Hills Cemetery, New York City; Sanctum Sanctorum, New York City; The Haven
+Equipment: The "Brand" of the Midnight Sons is a small cross with a sharp downward point. It was seared into the arms of an earlier Order of the Midnight Sons in ancient times, and began to appear on some of the modern-era Midnight Sons as they battled Zarathos. The purpose of the brand is to summon its wearers back together in times of great need, and is said to "hurt like the Devil himself" until the summons is answered. The brand otherwise remains invisible until it is needed. Frank Drake was turned away from being branded as he was deemed to be too human at the time.
+Weapons: Various personal armaments.
+Transportation: Mystical teleportation - A common means of transporting the group instantaneously when needed, and sometimes for moving them between dimensions.; Hellcycles - The hellfire-empowered motorcycles used by the various Spirits of Vengeance.
+Notes: Victoria Montesi and Yuvraj Singh indicated that the Sons of Midnight had been active for at least four decades and was a larger organization than previously indicated.
+History:
+===Preface===; Over 20,000 years ago, in the days of pre-Cataclymic Atlantis, the Order of the Midnight Sons, or Spirits of Vengeance, were a mysterious group of powerful beings banded together to oppose the demon Zarathos, the Lilin, and the Fallen.; Along with the Blood, a similar group, the Order battled Zarathos and his forces. Unable to defeat Zarathos, they forced him into the Medallion of Power, an object that he sought to control, but were trapped within it as well. The Medallion was then shattered by the Blood to prevent other from seeking it.; ===The Nine===; The mystic or fated Nine were prophesized to stand against the return of Lilith, Mother of Demons, and her children the Lilin from the Shadowside. Doctor Strange was responsible for gathering the Nine together to do what he could not, for if he battled Lilith directly, their magical forces would further weaken the dimensional barriers between Earth and the Shadow Side. Strange sent Ghost Rider and Johnny Blaze on a mission to locate the Nine and build them as allies. They made contact with Morbius, and Victoria Montesi and her comrades Louise Hastings and Sam Buchanan who opposed the return of the Darkhold. Strange also engineered the re-assembly of his old partners Blade, Frank Drake, and Hannibal King as the Nightstalkers, although their zealous anti-occult stance made them a potential danger to the rest of the Nine and Strange himself.; The various individuals that comprised the initial group had already had their own brushes with the Lilin, but most were unaware of the full magnitude of their predicament until Strange magically drew them together to halt an incursion of Lilin in Greenland. The disparate warriors were not formally grouped at the time, and some of their number were openly hostile to certain others, only working together out of a need to deal with the more imminent threat posed by the demons. Despite this, Strange still named them collectively as the Nine after sending most of them away in the aftermath of the battle. The Nine were assembled in the land of the Midnight Sun to confront Lilith and her existing Lilin before they could release all of her children from the Shadowside. The Nine were successful, with many of the Lilin killed and Lilith herself greatly weakened before disappearing.; The Nine were only loosely associated after that, having both cordial and antagonistic encounters with each other, especially with the Nightstalkers. The Nine battled Lilith and her Lilin on multiple occasions. They were forced to battle fellow member Blade when he was transformed into 'Switchblade' by the Darkhold. They also investigated Spider-X. They were reunited when Lilith made a pact with Zarathos and opened the Shadowside, unleashing her lost children. The Nine were betrayed from within as Morbius was infected with Lilin blood and killed Louise. The Lilin were banished back to Shadowside, but Zarathos remained a threat with his followers, the Fallen. Ghost Rider died in battle with Zarathos, while Victoria's unholy pregnancy with Chthon forced Doctor Strange to place her in stasis.; ===The Midnight Sons===; After Zarathos and the Fallen were finally defeated, the remaining members of the Nine and their allies reorganized into the Midnight Sons, a modern incarnation of the ancient order of the same name.; A new Midnight Sons team was briefly formed by Morbius to hunt zombies that had infiltrated their Earth from another reality to try and spread their Hunger Virus.; When Doctor Strange used magic to rebuild Las Vegas, Hotel Inferno emerged with it. The tower's influence began to change the citizens of Las Vegas, making them act on their very base instinct and impulse. In turn, for even the lesser of sins, their souls were taken by Mephisto. It also engulfed the heroes present at the scene, namely Falcon, Captain Marvel, Thor, Hawkeye, and Black Panther, who were turned into Ghost Riders. Bats, the ghost of Stephen's talking dog, sought Wong's help to assist Stephen. Wong decided to summon to Strange's aid a new Midnight Sons: Blade, Mr. Knight, Elsa Bloodstone, Doctor Voodoo, Man-Thing, Iron Fist, and finally Ghost Rider to lead them all.; The most recent iteration of the team was brought together when Strange Academy student Zoe Laveau accidentally projected a vision to supernatural characters across the Marvel Universe. Featuring Blade, Kushala, Magik, Nico Minoru, and Wolverine, the new team has been rebranded as the "Midnight Suns."

Under his employ, they found themselves facing the mutant thief known as Gambit. They clashed with him on numerous occasions. However, after The Pig's death, they also helped him break into Castle Doom, when Gambit needed to use Doom's time machine.; As a result of this caper, they encountered their father, who it turned out had been driven mad and had control of a device which potentially threatened reality. They stranded him in an environment he could not control.

+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City, New York
+Equipment: Each of the Metal Mobsters wore a suit of armor that was constructed out of an experimental metal called Y-9. It was as light as balsa wood, could stretch like rubber, was bullet proof, and immune to fire.
+Weapons: Stephen Cole was armed with a chemical spray gun that could snuff out the Human Torch and Toro's flames. He was also armed with a whip.
+History:
+The Metal Mobsters were formed by museum director Stephen Cole, who sought to steal the Spencer Collection, a collection of diamonds worth a fortune. It just so happened that he was the legal guardian of Mary Orchid who was to marry Leslie Garden. Garden had invented a new type of metal that was light as balsa wood, could stretch like rubber, and was bullet proof. This metal was dubbed "Y-9" by Leslie, who had hoped to give it to the government upon completion. However, Cole kidnapped Garden and forced him to make suits of armor out of Y-9 so that his gang of crooks could rob the Spencer collection and be impervious to law enforcement. In order to avoid his own implication in matters, Cole sought to imprison Mary to force Leslie to lead his men in robbing the gallery.; Sending men who were mute, Cole's first attempt to capture Mary happened outside the home of the Human Torch and Toro. The two heroes prevented Mary's capture and learned of the crooks' intention to steal the jewels on display from a newspaper clipping in one of the crooks pockets.; This proved to be Cole's undoing, as the Torch and Toro soon went to the museum to see the display for themselves. While being shown by Cole, he had his men kidnap Mary. Then pretending to contact the authorities, forced Leslie to lead his fellow crooks in stealing the jewels. The Torch and Toro found that their flames did not effect the armor, and most of the crooks escaped. Capturing the supposed leader, they unmasked him and were shocked to find the "leader" to be Leslie Garden. Cole arrived shortly thereafter with the authorities and demanded that Leslie be arrested.; Spotting fresh welts from a whipping on Garden's back, the Torch would not believe this claim and decided to search the museum grounds. The Torch and Toro were then attacked by the true leader of the gang and chased him into a room where Mary was strapped to a stretcher machine. Freeing Mary, the Torch and Toro sent the leader of the Metal Mobsters fleeing. Catching the entire gang out of their protective armor, the two fire-bugs rounded them up and returned Mary upstairs.; There, the Torch then accused Stephen Cole of being the leader of the mob. Leslie confirmed this by explaining how he was forced to work for them. With no way out, Cole then pulled a gun and held Mary hostage to get away. Cole slipped up by not keeping an eye on Toro who sneaked away during the confrontation and managed to get Cole from behind, saving Mary's life.; The Metal Mobsters were turned over to the authorities.

+History:
+===Deadpool's Team===; This group of mercenaries gathered together by Deadpool was originally named Heroes for Hire. Deadpool was inspired to create a franchise around his identity after Solo impersonated him, and piggybacked on the merc's success to take jobs at Deadpool's pay rate. Solo's impersonation helped Deadpool become more popular, thus benefiting both mercs.; After turning Solo into his first employee, Deadpool began to recruit other vigilantes, who would initially wear costumes identical to his. Following a cease and desist letter from Luke Cage, the leader of the original and defunct Heroes for Hire, Deadpool's team was legally forced to change their name, and they chose "Mercs for Money." Around this time, the Mercs for Money began to use color-coded costumes to distinguish each other from an independent Deadpool impersonator who was ruining the real one's reputation. This evil impersonator ended up being revealed as Madcap, who was also a member of the Mercs for Money. Once they got rid of Madcap, the Mercs for Money began using their own personal uniforms.; The Mercs for Money eventually became disgruntled by Deadpool's behavior, from the way he treated them to the delays in their paychecks. When they set out to create their own business, the Mercs discovered Deadpool had been skimming from them. After retrieving and burning their contracts from a safety deposit in Ho-Ho-Kus, New Jersey, the Mercs and Deadpool parted ways.; ===Domino's Team===; In order to help Deadpool rescue Negasonic Teenage Warhead from Umbral Dynamics, Domino assembled a new team of Mercs of Money, composed of herself, Masacre, Machine Man and Gorilla Man.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mega
+History:
+The Mega-Monsters were giant creatures that the Megans had captured on various alien worlds to be used as living weapons in their war against the Betans. Over the years that both sides in the war had engaged in this practice, the potential for further life on a dozen worlds had allegedly been eliminated.; The Megans enhanced the fighting capabilities of their war-monsters with biomech genetic alterations. The Warlord of Mega were able to monitor the activities of the Mega-Monsters in real time even when they were hundreds of light-years away, and to telepathically direct their actions in real time as well.; Although the most recent battle had all but destroyed the Betans and their war-monsters, the Betans had managed to keep that fact a secret, thereby deceiving the Megans into believing that the balance of power between their races was still maintained. Based on this disinformation, the Warlords of Mega believed that they needed to replenish their raw materials in order to create the armaments required to conquer the Betans so they decided to conquer and plunder Earth. However, the Betans were aware of their plan and were able to successfully capture Godzilla and bring him to Earth's Moon to test his power. Once Godzilla was on the Moon, the Betans sent their most powerful Beta-Beast to attack him to judge his worthiness to fight against the three most powerful Mega-Monsters. Godzilla succeeded in killing the Beta-Beast and was then sent back to Earth to face Triax who had just arrived on Earth and attacked Red Ronin.; As the battle began in Salt Lake City, the Warlords of Mega soon realized that Triax alone was not powerful enough to defeat both Godzilla and Red Ronin so they ordered Rhiahn and Krollar to descend to Earth and join the battle. Although the Earth champions had some initial success, that ended when Rhiahn successfully decapitated Red Ronin. Seconds later, all three Mega-Monsters were struck by the Energex-Ray directed at them by the Megans which increased their size, strength and ferocity. Telepathically directed from afar by the Warlords of Mega, the three Mega-Monsters would have been too much for Godzilla to handle if S.H.I.E.L.D. agents Dum Dum Dugan and Gabe Jones hadn't decided to help by piloting two flying vehicles and using them to distract two of the monsters. This strategy allowed Godzilla to concentrate on one Mega-Monster at a time, and he quickly managed to kill all three of them, ending the Megan plans to conquer Earth for the materials that were needed to continue their war with the Betans.

+History:
+When the X-Men decided to attack the Inhumans so they could destroy the Terrigen Cloud roaming the Earth, which was lethal to mutants, with no interference, Deadpool gathered the Mercs for Money and had them decide whether to help the X-Men or stand aside. In hopes to stop the conflict, Negasonic Teenage Warhead altered the structure of the Terrigen Cloud with her reality-warping powers so it became harmless to mutants. Unfortunately, Inhuman zealots saw this act as profane, and waged war against the mutants.; Five years into the future, the Mercs for Money patrolled the streets of the demon-plagued ghost town that had became of New York City, now known as Limbo-Town, which was also saturated by Terrigen Mist.; After escaping the Inhuman group known as the Tribe, the Mercs for Money stumbled upon the moribund Masacre in the sewers while en route towards Monster Metropolis. With his last breaths, Masacre informed the team he had located the missing Negasonic Teenage Warhead, who had disappeared as soon as she altered the T-Cloud, and let fall a data stick set to Cambodia.; The Mercs flew to Cambodia and found Negasonic hiding in a temple together with Goldballs, Rachel Grey, Nightcrawler, Polaris, and Xorn. Deadpool confronted Negasonic and asked her to use her powers to bring back the Terrigen Cloud. Having gained access to the Mercs' location by hacking into the systems of Machine Man, the Tribe teleported to the temple to have revenge on Negasonic Teenage Warhead, leading to a fight which cost Hit-Monkey's life. Negasonic intervened in an attempt to reach a ceasefire, but she was attacked from behind by Lash, who absorbed a portion of her energy and prepared to kill her. In an attempt to save her, Deadpool attacked Lash, and in turn became the target of his attack. The backlash was too much for Deadpool's healing factor, and he died shortly after, asking Negasonic to undo what she did to the T-Cloud with his last breaths.; As the Inhumans prepared to retreat, Negasonic used her powers to travel five years back in time, and stopped her past self, or rather her past self from the Prime Marvel Universe, from altering the composition of the cloud, thus preventing this future from coming to be.

+===Overview===; The Merry Men are the group of outlaws who followed the legendary Robin Hood. They operated from Sherwood Forest outside of Nottingham, robbing from the rich to give to the poor.; ===Legend===; After battling in the Crusades, Robin returned to England only to find his father had been murdered by the corrupt Sheriff of Nottingham and has taken over his Father's lands. Unable to be helped by Maid Marian. Robin vowed to avenge his father and fled to the Forest of Sherwood, home to a band of outlaws who have been banished from their villages by the Sheriff of Notingham. Combining the forces of the outlaws, Robin and his merry men set out on a crusade against the Sheriff of Nottingham and defeat the Sheriff of Nottingham and his henchmen who bids to take over the throne of England's rightful ruler King Richard the Lionheart and put a end to the corruption that has infested the English countryside.; ===Fandral===; In the 13th Century, the Asgardian known as Fandral was being chased by a Storm Giant through a forest in Asgard when he fell through a portal. He landed on Midgard in England in an area known as Nottingham. He took down a group of soldiers who were harassing the locals for taxes. It was then that he met a woman named Marian. It was love at first site and she told him of the local governor who was stealing from the poor. He helped where he could robbing the rich to give to the poor. Over time he formed a band of Merry Men to help him. Working together he took down the governor and the false king as the true king returned to the throne. He married Marian and they settled in a home not far from Nottingham. However due to her mortal nature she aged and died while Fandral remained unchanged. After her death he returned to Asgard through a portal. It remained unclear if he truly was the inspiration for the legend of Robin Hood.; ===The Adventures of Robin Hood===; In one instance, the 1940s time traveler Tommy Tyme ended up in Robin Hood's era. According to this account Tommy showed Robin Hood and his Merry Men how to make sling-shots, suggested that they wear green to better disguise themselves in the forest, and helped Robin Hood win an archery contest before returning to his own time.

+Reality: Earth-22145
+Base of operations: The Abbey, Salem, Massachusetts
+Transportation: Magik's Stepping Disks
+History:
+===Original Incarnation===; The original Midnight Suns formed in the early 1700s and consisted of Spirit of Vengeance Jeremiah Kaine, vampire hunter Will Walker, and the witches Endra Moor and Yelena Nicovich. They were joined by Hunter to stand against Lilith, Mother of Demons and Hunter's mother. Together, they confronted Lilith as she was reading from the Darkhold. All five of them have perished, although Hunter was able to kill Lilith. They were buried and commemorated on the Abbey grounds by Caretaker and Agatha Harkness.; ===Modern Incarnation===; In the 2020s Lilith was brought back to life by Hydra, and the Prophecy of the Midnight Suns heralded the return of Chthon. Sara decided to assemble the new Midnight Suns against this threat, beginning with Agatha's pupil Wanda Maximoff who felt the pressure of replacing the Hunter as the one to stand against Lilith. Agatha directed Wanda to the Magik of the X-Men and tasked Wanda with recruiting her. Caretaker and Magik then recruited Robbie Reyes and Blade. The team was completed by the addition of Nico Minoru.; As the team was settling in and training for the fight to come, Wanda was feeling the pressure and was eager to push the limits her magic and explore the Abbey grounds. However, several areas of the Abbey grounds have been sealed by Caretaker using Words of Power accessible only to the descendants of the Blood and protected by the Moon Seals. Wanda's experiments with those proved disastrous, as one of the Moon Seals explored and vaporized Agatha without a trace. Though Wanda was not directly at fault, Caretaker still resented her and sent Wanda away to apprentice under Doctor Strange, something the other Suns disapproved of.; ===The Hunter Returns===; The Avengers arrived at the Abbey and met the Midnight Suns. Tension between them rose until Caretaker intervened to prevent hostilities. After Doctor Strange explained how dire the situation had become, he and Caretaker agreed on what needed to be done. They entered Hunter's tomb and began a resurrection spell. It triggered an unexpected reaction from Hunter's Collar, alarming Caretaker, but Nico stepped forward and successfully completed the resurrection using the Staff of One. Hunter woke up, and upon emerging from their crypt immediately encountered Blade who suggested they join the others were waiting nearby. Hunter spoke with Nico, who introduced herself along with her companions, which caused Hunter to recognize that Caretaker had assembled a new incarnation of the Midnight Suns.; The Mirror Table indicated that Wanda was in danger at the Sanctum Sanctorum. Strange couldn't create a direct portal because of Lilith's mystical interference, so Caretaker offered for Magik to forge a pathway through Limbo instead. The team of Hunter, Blade, and Doctor Strange arrived in New York City and encountered Hydra forces. Meanwhile, Scarlet Witch struggled to maintain the protective wards, allowing Lilith to breach the Sanctum's defenses. The building was enveloped by massive writhing tendrils. Strange attempted to dispel the supernatural growth, inadvertently triggering a reaction with Hunter's Collar, which summoned Venom from the tendrils. After seemingly defeating Venom, Hunter impulsively pursued the creature only to discover that it was merely a deception. Venom pounced, pinning Hunter and preparing to deliver a fatal blow when Spider-Man appeared, distracting Venom long enough to lead the creature away from the group and allow them to escape.; Captain Marvel was able to trace the unique gamma signature from the Sanctum to its source in the Warehouse District. She and Blade joined Hunter, and upon arriving on the warehouse roof, they immediately noted Hydra's presence before spotting Doctor Faustus and an unknown device through a skylight below. Captain Marvel opted for a direct approach, smashing through the skylight and engaging the Hydra troops. Faustus decided to test his device, which exploded in a massive energy burst which Captain Marvel managed to absorb. Caretaker emphasized the necessity of tracking down Venom to help Spider-Man after he had saved Hunter from certain doom. The Avengers and Caretaker were employing various technological and mystical methods but failing to pinpoint Venom's location due to the speed at which both he and Spider-Man were traversing the city. Nico and the other Suns instead successfully tracked the pair through social media, which led to Spider-Man joining them at the Abbey. Nico expressed her anger regarding the Avengers, whom she felt had not only invaded their home but were also steadily assuming control of their mission, with Magik agreeing and noting that Strange had failed to protect Wanda.; ===Sidelined by Avengers===; The four Midnight Suns and Hunter all shared the same dream of Scarlet Witch appearing and calling them by name. Fed up with Caretaker and the Avengers not doing anything to get Wanda back, this prompted them to attempt a rescue against Caretaker's wishes. Nico swiped Caretaker's spellbook and found a spell that could potentially track Wanda. Nico secured the door to the Abbey chapel as the group arranged themselves in a circle on the floor. She told everyone to maintain concentration on the spell as she began chanting, with the other four joining in. Black smoke emanated from the mirror, causing both Robbie and Blade to cease chanting while Nico began floating in the air. Hunter seized the Staff of One and shattered the mirror, creating a vortex that sucked Hunter, Nico, and Magik, leaving Blade and Robbie behind.; The trio emerged in a Hydra lab where Bruce Banner, corrupted by Lilith, began taunting them over a loudspeaker, confused about how they had located this facility before deducing that they came for Wanda rather than the Gamma Accelerator. A large glass tube revealed Wanda inside, likewise corrupted by Lilith. Hunter noted that death offered the only chance for release, as Fallen Scarlet Witch burst from the tube and attacked. Magik recognized their need to escape and opened a portal. Nico was still attempting to reason with Wanda but Hunter and Magik grabbed her and dove through the portal. They tumbled out back at the Abbey where the portal was forcibly reopened by Wanda who began pushing herself through while Magik struggled to close it. Caretaker appeared and managed to drive Wanda back, sealed the portal, and stormed off, leaving Nico and Magik visibly distressed.; Doctor Strange and Captain Marvel identified an underground shipping facility potentially housing artifacts stolen from the Sanctum. Blade realized they wanted him to lead the mission due to his expertise in what he called "dirty work." At the site, the heroes observed Hydra troops hoisting a large container from the hole, their method for smuggling artifacts from the Sanctum. Blade leapt down the hole, with Hunter following behind. They landed in a tunnel, noticing one of the side passages filled with tendrils from the Sanctum just before Venom appeared and attacked. They couldn't withstand him indefinitely, which prompted Hunter to leap atop Venom and plunge a blade deeply into his chest. Green energy began swirling as a crack appeared in Hunter's collar. They were thrown off Venom and enveloped in a burst of magic that rendered Hunter unconscious but also injured Venom, forcing him to retreat and allowing Blade to rescue Hunter. Blade later admitted being disturbed by what he had witnessed — Hunter crying out for Lilith while surrounded by swirling dark energy — and confessed he had feared Hunter would fall.; ===New Leadership===; Caretaker convened a team meeting and emphasized that while she and Hunter battled the Mother of Demons, the others remained entangled in trivial disputes. Tony Stark's assertion that the Midnight Suns weren't contributing adequately provoked Nico to counter that the Avengers were actually the ones operating independently. Caretaker admonished them both, noting that the two supposed leaders had effectively demonstrated her point. Caretaker highlighted how Lilith and her followers maintained unity, stressing the absolute need for everyone present to align their efforts in a common direction. Captain America suggested that Hunter should lead them, and they accepted the responsibility.; Nico began studying The Book of Thoth, and within it had located a passage recounting a Pharaoh driven to madness after reading the Scrolls of Chthon, another name for the Darkhold, potentially representing the first documented case of corruption. Nico and Magik transcribed the incantation that had cured the first documented case of Lilin corruption. Since corruption could not be destroyed but merely transferred, whoever removed it from Wanda would need to absorb it themselves, leaving Hunter as the only viable candidate, so Nico taught Hunter the incantation and had them commit it to memory. Hunter returned to Banner's lab, and during the battle against the Fallen Scarlet Witch, absorbed her darkness before reciting the incantation. This purged Wanda of her corruption, and she returned to the Abbey with Hunter and Magik. Everyone celebrated her return, and after Wanda went to sleep, Nico and Magik conveyed their gratitude to Hunter.; ===The Parchment of Power===; Caretaker disclosed that Johnny Blaze served as guardian of the Parchment of Power, the final page of the Darkhold. Caretaker, Stark, and Strange explained to Robbie that they needed him to summon Blaze. Doctor Strange revealed that the Cuffs of Cyttorak would enable the Mirror Table to access the link Robbie shared with the Spirit of Vengeance and locate Blaze. Upon attaching the Cuffs, Robbie transformed into Ghost Rider, causing the Mirror Table's surface to display mystical flames as Blaze briefly appeared before vanishing, and a team was sent to his location. Blaze was racing on his motorcycle, pursued by Hydra, when Hunter and Robbie arrived in the Hell Ride. As they leapt across the canyon, glowing green chains shot upward from below, latching onto Blaze and dragging him down into the depths. Blaze found himself chained to a rock when the others reached him and managed to break free, but when Hunter demanded that Blaze surrender the Parchment of Power, a horde of Soulless demons appeared. Blaze pulled out the Parchment and began reading from it, casting a spell that engulfed the area in fire. As the flames subsided, Blaze he jumped onto his motorcycle and sped away, promising to be in touch.; Blaze contacted the Abbey, demanded to speak with Robbie, and instructed him to bring the Midnight Suns along. As Hunter, Ghost Rider, and Magik prepared to depart, Magik detected something peculiar about the current state of Limbo while opening the portal, prompting her to remain behind and investigate. Hunter and Ghost Rider discovered Blaze waiting beside a church, where he revealed to have formulated a plan and insisted they follow his lead without questioning. Hunter expressed resistance, buy Blaze placate them by producing the Parchment of Power from his own chest and transferring it into Robbie's body.; As Blaze led them inside the church, they found themselves transported to Limbo instead. Mephisto on the throne welcomed their arrival before Blaze disclosed his betrayal — having struck a bargain to abandon Hunter in Limbo to prevent the prophecy's fulfillment — yet when Robbie refused to depart with him, Mephisto revealed the deal guaranteed safe passage solely for Blaze and teleported him away. Hunter and Ghost Rider faced Mephisto when a voice interrupted from behind — Magik appeared seated upon Mephisto's former throne, and in her fury, she transported Hunter and Ghost Rider back while staying behind to "catch up" with her tormentor.; Tony Stark planned to destroy the Parchment of Power with the Gamma Accelerator at the Los Diablos Missile Base. Ghost Rider and Iron Man arrived at Los Diablos ahead of the others to prepare, with Iron Man readying the Gamma Cannon while Robbie circled the area maintaining a safe distance until the Cannon was prepared for activation. When the others arrived, they Sabretooth and a horde of Lilin descending upon them. Hunter, Magik, and Wolverine defended the Gamma Collector long enough for it to absorb the necessary gamma radiation. During the battle Sabretooth managed to pin Wolverine and was poised to deliver a fatal blow when Magik intervened, driving her Soulsword through Sabretooth's back and causing him to disintegrate as one of her portals tore through his body. As Ghost Rider attempted to reach the designated location, the Lilin overturned his vehicle. Robbie lay immobilized when Johnny Blaze appeared and dispatched the Lilin with his shotgun, before reclaiming the Parchment of Power from Robbie. In an act of sacrifice, Blaze propelled his motorcycle directly into the Gamma Cannon's path to destroy the page, but the plan failed when Fallen Hulk reclaimed the page for Lilith.; ===Taking Charge===; Nico addressed the Midnight Suns and declared it was their moment to take charge following the Avengers' failures. She claimed that the Avengers were at a disadvantage due to the mystical nature of their adversary, making this situation particularly suited to the Midnight Suns' expertise. Everyone gathered around the Mirror Table, prompting Tony Stark to begin assuming command until reminded of his recent failures, causing him to deflect responsibility and suggest Captain America lead instead. Nico interrupted, highlighting a disturbing pattern - from the Sanctum Sanctorum's destruction to the Los Diablos fiasco, every mission under Avengers leadership had ended disastrously; the other Midnight Suns agreed with Nico and announced their intention to handle the next mission independently.; At their destination, the Suns discovered Hydra troops guarding Lilith's Tomb. A Hydra helicopter launched missiles toward them, but Nico told the Staff of One to "buy us some time" by immobilizing both enemies and their weapons; she and Magik remained outside to maintain this magical defense while Hunter, Blade, and Ghost Rider ventured inside. They found Lilith channeling Darkhold's power under protective magical barrier, so the heroes shattered the pillars to collapse the tomb. Back at the Abbey, everyone was thrilled to have finally delivered a setback to Lilith. However, back at the tomb, Fallen Hulk clawed his way out of the ground and stood with Lilith as she held the Darkhold aloft, and the Temple of Chthon appeared.; As the team lamented Lilith's imminent consumption of Transia with demonic energy. Captain America brought up the Godkiller, but there was the seemingly insurmountable challenge of deploying it against Lilith with Hulk serving as her guardian. The spirit of Agatha then appeared, declaring that the most formidable entity on Earth wasn't Hulk but Wanda, prompting Hunter to accompany her to the Temple of Chthon in Transia. Ready to unleash her full potential, Scarlet Witch flew to confront Hulk and hurled him into the Temple before suspending him mid-air with magic. Lilith emerged and freed Hulk while attempting to corrupt Wanda again, she feigned susceptibility before blasting Lilith back into the Temple and sealing her within, allowing them to focus on Hulk. Hunter absorbed Hulk's darkness and recited the incantation from The Book of Thoth, successfully transforming Hulk back into Banner and freeing him from Lilith's influence.; ===The Midnight Sun===; The next day, everyone observed the ominous green sky outside as Doctor Strange announced the prophecy's impending fulfillment and Caretaker added that Chthon approached their dimension. Nico organized the last movie night before the end of the world, inviting everyone. Strange revealed to Hunter that the Godkiller blade contained a fragment of Chthon himself. Hunter consulted Agatha about the Godkiller, who shared her findings that "only Chthon can kill Chthon". Before departing on the final mission, everyone changed into matching team uniforms, Tony claimed it was a collaborative effort initiated by Caretaker. After last words before the battle, Hunter led the team through the portal to the Temple of Chthon.; Hulk smashed the gate, releasing green light that transported them s Chthon's Realm. Lilith appeared and begun welcoming Hunter, but the heroes attacked immediately, prompting her to magically restrain all except Hunter, who slashed her face with the Godkiller and declared it the means to permanently end their conflict. Lilith claimed her intention was not to free Chthon but to destroy him, insisting that Hunter would already be dead were she lying. Lilith shattered their collar and urged them to embrace their true self. Hunter's eyes turned purple, and they plunged Godkiller into Lilith's back while speaking with Chthon'’s voice. Chthon revealed that Hunter had become his vessel when Lilith had made her deal, thanking her for removing the collar that was his final obstacle. He required a sacrifice of four souls for four gods to match the original four who had bound him before.; Despite the Godkiller embedded in her chest, Lilith managed to free several heroes and plead for their assistance in saving both the world and her child. After a prolonged battle during which Hunter struggled internally, experiencing visions of their friends finally expelled Chthon from them, though the Midnight Sun had arrived. Their last hope was to release the four bound heroes and to establish seals constraining Chthon. Hunter freed the four heroes, establishing the seals and completing the binding — a futile effort that merely provoked Chthon's laughter. At this moment, Lilith dragged herself to the Darkhold, extracted the Godkiller from her chest, and drove it through the book saying "Only Chthon can kill Chthon." As the Darkhold absorbed dark energy from Lilith, she reverted to her human form and told Hunter her sacrifice was for them before casting a spell that transported the heroes away. The spell stopped before Hunter could join them, and Hunter realized that being cured by Chthon as an infant meant they and her mother both belonged to the Darkhold.

+Trivia: An interview with series writer Brian Michael Bendis on the Word Balloon Podcast said that the roster revealed in Wizard was not entirely accurate. Bendis stated that some of the members shown on the promo image would be on the team, while others wouldn't. Because of this, fans speculated on the roster, but the one as shown was used in the first issue, and on throughout the next 19.
+History:
+===Initiative===; In the wake of the Superhero Civil War led by Captain America and Iron Man and the enforcement of the Superhuman Registration Act, the 50-State Initiative was implemented and each American state was patrolled by a team of registered heroes. The Avengers were reformed to serve the main superhero unit on Earth, operating in the state of New York. Tony Stark, the invincible Iron Man, who became the new Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. after the Civil War, selected the members of the group. Although Iron Man was active on the team, his obligations led him to appoint longtime Avenger Ms. Marvel to act as field commander. Unlike previous rosters of the Avengers which were assembled by chance, Iron Man and Ms. Marvel picked the line-up from the registered heroes at their disposal. They chose the wealthy fashion icon Wasp, the optimistic Hollywoodian star Wonder Man, the troubled powerhouse Sentry, the lethal spy Black Widow, and the Olympian God of War Ares to compose the roster.; Before any formalization, the new group was forced to debut as the Mole Man and its monstrous creatures unleashed chaos in New York City. In fact, Mole Man was a victim of another aggressor, the long-time robotic nemesis of the Avengers Ultron, who infected and possessed Iron Man's armor and body, reshaping them to resemble the Wasp's organism. Having seized control of Starktech, Ultron had complete control over Earth's weather patterns, igniting a climate collapse around the globe to eradicate humanity. The Avengers battled him as he also corrupted S.H.I.E.L.D.'s systems. The climate crisis was stopped as the Avengers destroyed Stark's satellites. In retaliation, Ultron caused a massive blackout in America, took control of Iron Man's arsenal and murdered the Sentry's wife Lindy Reynolds. Ultron's creator Hank Pym envisioned a solution by having the villain's organism infiltrated by a microscopic Ares, whom Ultron had knowledge about. Completely out of control, the volatile Sentry brutally maimed Ultron, which endangered his host Tony Stark's life. Empowered by a missile Ultron had fired, Ms. Marvel was able to prevent the Sentry of assassinating Ultron and, consequently, Iron Man. Ares was successful in his mission and survived thanks to the Wasp. Ultron was purged from Tony Stark's body, making a recovery possible.; While some Avengers joined the Initiative, many others rebelled against the Registration Act even after the loss and death of Captain America after the Civil War. The outlaw Avengers maintained their operations, hiding from S.H.I.E.L.D. in Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum. When identifying the fugitive Spider-Woman fighting the Grey Gargoyle in an illegal act of vigilantism, Ms. Marvel approached her and insinuated Captain America was, in fact, alive and being kept sedated in the maximum-security prison known as Raft. Spider-Woman fled and informed the outlaw Avengers about it. They decided to raid the Raft to rescue Captain America only to be ambushed by the Initiative's Avengers, who staged the situation to trick them. Doctor Strange haunted the Avengers with illusions about their deepest nightmares to cover a retreat. However, Iron Man and his Avengers tracked them to the Sanctum Sanctorum, though Doctor Strange's mystic defenses proved to be impenetrable. Around this period of grief, the Avengers of the Initiative vented their anger about Captain America's demise by focusing on their duty, such as defeating Tiger Shark and a host of summoned sea-beasts.; Stark was secretly approached by Spider-Woman, who had possession of a Skrull corpse. She informed him the alien had posed as Elektra, the leader of the Hand. Upon this revelation, they discussed Earth was being the target of a Secret Invasion. To deal with the situation, Spider-Woman joined the Avengers as other members remained unaware of the Skrull crisis. The team faced an infection of Symbiotes, alien parasites that bonded themselves to people throughout Manhattan, including many Avengers, namely the Wasp, Black Widow, and Spider-Woman. Iron Man developed a cure to purge the creatures and he traced the attack's origin to Latveria. In an act of war, the Avengers marched to Latveria to apprehended its monarch, Doctor Doom. During the confrontation, Iron Man, the Sentry and Doctor Doom were transported to the past through the Time Platform, being forced to work together to return to the present. Doctor Doom cunningly delayed his enemies' return, emerging moments before them to ambush the rest of the Avengers with his forces. Spider-Woman broke her allies free with unpredictable power levels, raising suspicions. Iron Man and the Sentry then defeated Doom, humiliating him and placing him under arrest.; ===Skrull Invasion===; The Skrull invasion to take over Earth finally came to a boiling point when a Skrull ship landed in the Savage Land. Iron Man and the Avengers were informed about the imminent crash by S.W.O.R.D. director Abigail Brand. Without her teammates' knowledge, Spider-Woman tipped the outlaw Avengers about the situation and they hijacked a Quinjet from the Avengers Tower. Upon reaching their destination, both Avengers teams found the Mutates' citadel in ruins. The Skrulls corrupted Iron Man's technology all over the globe with a virus through his armor's systems, not only were Iron Man and the Avengers affected, but S.H.I.E.L.D., the Initiative and many others. The landed spaceship opened, revealing a group of many costumed adventurers claiming to have escaped Skrull captivity, including Captain America. Confused, the Avengers were not sure who was a shapeshifter and who was legit. The Sentry was tormented by the invaders and left the battle site. Meanwhile, Manhattan was invaded by thousands of Super-Skrull soldiers.; While Ms. Marvel went to the major battle with her team's powerhouses, Spider-Woman reached out to a poisoned Iron Man in the Savage Land as he attempted to recover from the infection in his systems. She played with his mind, revealing to be Queen Veranke, the liege of the Skrulls and mastermind behind the infiltration and invasion of Earth. The Avengers put aside their differences and join forces against the common enemy, as Black Widow managed to bring Iron Man back to sanity. The veil of uncertainty ended when Reed Richards activated a device that could reveal the Skrulls' true nature. The alien imposters were slain and the Avengers marched to Manhattan to fight for Earth.; In the climactic battle against the Skrulls, the Avengers fought alongside a slew of comrades, most prominently Thor, the new Captain America, Nick Fury and his Secret Warriors, the Thunderbolts, Noh-Varr, and even the Hood's Gang. As a last resort, the Wasp was transformed into a giant living bomb by the Skrull, since Pym had been replaced and disrupted her powers in secrecy. Thor was forced to end her life to prevent a detonation. On a happy note, on the other hand, the real heroes replaced by the Skrulls were found to be alive and well. During the final stand, the director of the Thunderbolts, the unscrupulous Norman Osborn, who used to be the villain Green Goblin, killed the escaping Veranke. Using his technology from OsCorp, Osborn was not affected by the corruption of Iron Man's Starktech. S.H.I.E.L.D. was decommissioned and replaced by H.A.M.M.E.R., with Osborn as its head in charge of the Initiative.; The blame for the invasion was placed on the shoulders of Tony Stark and he lost his clearance as head of security. The Avengers disbanded, and dark reign descended upon Earth's Mightiest Heroes. A new roster led by Osborn was assembled to act as the Initiative's Avengers. The Dark Avengers were formed mostly by former Thunderbolts adopting classic mantles of the Avengers. Concurrently, the God of Mischief Loki, masquerading as the Scarlet Witch, manipulated the real Hank Pym into creating a team from the ashes of the disbanded team of Avengers. As an ally of Osborn, Loki wished to cause disorder with his actions. These Mighty Avengers operated independently, evading Osborn's reach.

+History:
+The Mole Men were all agents of Imperial Japan during World War II. They were so called due to their large hands and quick digging skills, which were the result of a chemical formula created by the Mole Men's leader, the Yellow Claw.; In the spring of 1945, the Mole Men were sent to the United States, to use their digging abilities to sabotage American war factories. After completing their first attack, they stumbled upon a gold prospector and his daughter and captured the girl while the old man fled. The old man returned with Captain America and Bucky, who clashed with the Mole Men while freeing the girl and fled. Yellow Claw then sent the Mole Men to capture General Haywood in order to learn military secrets, but the commanding officer refused to talk. When Captain America and Bucky returned to rescue Haywood, they were overpowered by the Mole Men, who pushed the three Americans into an underground river.; They survived this, and attacked again, just as Yellow Claw was attempting to activate a dormant volcano with TNT. During the fight, Yellow Claw and the Mole Men charged after Cap and Bucky. When the two heroes dodged out of the way, the entire army fell into a chasm to their deaths.

+Full name: Mighty Avengers
+Other aliases: Avengers; Secret Avengers; Superior Avengers
+First appearance: Mighty Avengers Vol 2 1
+Created by: Al Ewing; Greg Land
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Formed when the (Main) Avengers left the Earth in order to fight the Builders.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Gem Theater, Manhattan, New York City, New York
+Trivia: The team's name ("Mighty Avengers") came from the hashtag used in social networks to talk about it.
+History:
+===Infinity===; To prevent the Builders from destroying Earth, the Avengers went to war in outer space. Recognizing the vulnerability the planet faced without its mightiest heroes, the Mad Titan Thanos took advantage of the situation and sent his dark generals of the Black Order to raze the world. Proxima Midnight was particularly interested in wrecking havoc in the streets of New York, leading Thanos' armada to accomplish such a feat. Her actions prompted a group of heroes to assemble, namely the former Hero for Hire Luke Cage, the obnoxious Superior Spider-Man, the living light wonder Monica Rambeau, who had reinvented herself as Spectrum, and her mysterious associate, the mysterious fighter who concealed his identity under the guise of the "Spider Hero." Proxima Midnight gained advantage in the fight, incapacitating the Avengers. However, the community of New York City rebelled against the invaders, distracting them and empowering the heroes to prevail. Disappointed with the results, Thanos called Proxima Midnight over to Atlantis, where her main mission was to be carried out.; Simultaneously, another general of Thanos Eboy Maw had secretly taken control over Doctor Strange, manipulating him to summon the catastrophic monstrosity Shuma-Gorath in the middle of New York City. The disaster caught the attention of the reclusive scientist and superhuman powerhouse Blue Marvel. He joined the battle, by violently attacking the extradimensional creature and providing Spectrum with treatment against wounds inflicted by Proxima Midnight. Additionally, Cage's former allies and pupils in the Heroes for Hire, the mystic champion White Tiger and the living battery Power Man joined the brawl against Shuma-Gorath, after learning from social media about the rising popularity of the new team of Mighty Avengers. Despite Shuma-Gorath managing to corrupt several souls, the Avengers ultimately turned the tide by joining their efforts and emerged victorious. The dust settled, and, after being asked by reporter Kat Farrell about the nature of the group, Cage decided to officially turn the improvised team into an official unit of Mighty Avengers.; ===Inhumanity===; Once Thanos' invasion was thwarted, the Mighty Avengers established their headquarters in the remodeled Gem Theater, and also established a hotline, with the purpose of helping everyone and anyone who needed them.; The team's next adventure came to the Mighty Avengers when Kaluu contacted the Spider Hero (who would subsequently assume the mantle of Ronin) to inform him the Deathwalkers were going to get into the fallen Attilan, the Inhuman city partially sunk in the Hudson river. While a portion of the team headed to Attilan, Luke Cage and his wife Jessica Jones dealt with an attempted hostile take over from Spider-Man (who was the villain Doctor Octopus controlling the hero's body at the time).; While She-Hulk helped Luke and Jessica fend off Spider-Man's forces, the Mighty Avengers encountered a Hellhound sent by Lichidus of the Deathwalkers, who wanted to recover the Lost Talisman of Kamar-Taj from Attilan. With Cortex Inc. operative Quickfire was caught in the middle, the Hellhound was defeated, and Ronin escaped with the Talisman.; ===The Deathwalkers===; Soon after helping the Ava Ayala control the spirit of the White Tiger in Blue Marvel's underwater base, the Mighty Avengers found themselves facing an attack from Blue Marvel's son, the Doctor Positron, who blamed his father for his brother's disappearance into the Neutral Zone, and attempted to open a portal to said dimension and rescue him, but failed.; At the time the Avengers were investigating the murder of Uatu the Watcher, the minions of the Deathwalkers were able to subdue Blade after weeks of chase, kidnapping him and taking the Talisman of Kamar-Taj from him.; Even though the Mighty Avengers located Blade and arrived to help him, the Deathwalker's legion of servants provided a distraction so the heroes couldn't get to Deathwalkers before they could finish their ritual. The successfully-finished ceremony merged them together into the Deathwalker Prime, a creature with control over the four elements, thus power over the fifth: the spirit, which would be the key for it to destroy humankind.; However, the Mighty Avengers managed to get hold of the cup used in the ritual of merging, and using a similar procedure merged themselves into the Avenger Prime, which managed to destroy the Deathwalker Prime, mainly because unlike the Deathwalker, the different personas merged into it were truly spiritually bonded, while the personas composing the Deathwalker were fighting for control. Once the Deathwalkers were defeated, the Avenger Prime broke down back to being individual Avengers.; ===AXIS===; Some of the members of the Mighty Avengers heeded the call for help to defeat the Red Onslaught in Genosha. The villain was ultimately defeated when Doctor Doom and Scarlet Witch cast an inversion spell that flipped the villain's moral axis. However, the spell accidentally affected the people in the scene as well.; Luke Cage became extremely materialistic, going as far as having business affairs with Jason Quantrell of Cortex Inc., and Captain America became an fascist who violently beat up criminals. When the new personalities of these heroes clashed with their teammates, they joined the Axis of other inverted Avengers.; The Axis confronted the Mighty Avengers, with the inverted Iron Man demanding them to disband due to their use of the Avengers trademark. After a furious battle, Iron Man decided to back off, pretending to the public that the confrontation had been a scheme of the Machinesmith.; ===Beyond Corporation===; After the effects of the inversion had been reversed, Luke Cage pretended to still be his abnormal self in order to keep making business with Cortex Inc. to infiltrate the company and discover its secrets. When Luke and Jessica Jones confronted Quantrell, he revealed himself to be a member of the evil and powerful Beyond Corporation.; At the same time, Power Man and White Tiger had followed the trail of the murder of Gideon Mace, who had been turned by Cortex Inc. into a monstrous creature along with Quickfire. Meanwhile, Blue Marvel had been cryptically warned by his son Kevin from the Exo-Space (a dimension outside of reality) of a threat "from beyond."; Captain America, She-Hulk and Kaluu heeded a call for help from Power Man, who had been infected and turned into a similar monstrous creature shortly after White Tiger suffered the same fate. Luke and Jessica were teleported to the vacuum of space by "Quantrell," but they were rescued by Blue Marvel a few moments later. Once they were safe, they warned their teammates about Beyond Corporation, causing Blue Marvel to realize the meaning behind his son's message. Spectrum took the revelation of the threat of Beyond personally, as she had been manipulated by Beyond Corporation a few years before.; While Captain America held the line against his fellow teammates, who had been all turned into monsters, Spectrum confronted "Jason Quantrell" and distracted him for long enough that Blue Marvel was able to open a portal to the Exo-Space and send him back. Once "Quantrell" left the universe, the monstrous infection that affected the rest of the team disappeared.; ===Time Runs Out===; When Steve Rogers and the Avengers set out to hunt down Iron Man and the Illuminati for hiding the the phenomenon of the incursions from the rest of the world, he reached out to the Mighty Avengers, who agreed to help him in capturing the Illuminati.; After weeks of attending the mass-panic caused when the existence of the incursions was made public knowledge, the Mighty Avengers were deployed in Spain, where the Illuminati had been pinned down by the Avengers. The squabble was interrupted by the Invisible Woman, who convinced the different parties to reach a middle ground and start working together. Adam Brashear used the opportunity brought by the truce to scold Mr. Fantastic and Black Panther for their actions with the Illuminati.; When the final incursion loomed, the Mighty Avengers were forced to close their headquarters, due to the inverted Tony Stark having used his team of lawyers to sue Cage for using the "Avengers" name. The former members of the team were called in to fend off the forces of the incursive Earth. Spectrum engaged in a plan to destroy the other Earth by turning into hard light and crashing into it at light speed. However, she hesitated when she was about to hit its surface after seeing a group of innocent kids playing, allowing the Maker of said Earth to capture her.; During the final hour, the members of the Mighty Avengers spent the last time in different ways. Captain America continued defending the Earth against the enemy forces, Iron Fist rescued civilians caught in the middle of the combat, She-Hulk helped strike against the other Earth, Power Man visited his family, White Tiger patrolled the city beating up criminals, Kaluu drank tea with Wong, Blue Marvel and his son worked in their lab trying to save the Earth, the Support Team answered the hotline comforting whoever called, and Luke Cage and Jessica Jones helped a homeless shelter.

+History:
+When the Queen sought the Jackal's help to take over the world, he grew numerous clones of himself to assist him in the creation of a virus that would allow her to do so.; After the Jackal (actually another clone of him) failed to stop Horizon Labs from creating a cure for the Spider-Virus through the Anti-Venom symbiote, many of his clones were killed by the Spider-Queen in retaliation.; Following the Queen's death, a team of clones led by the real Jackal collected DNA samples from her corpse.; ===Alpha===; When the Jackal took interest in the new young hero known as Alpha for his connection to Parker, two clones of him dressed as Jackals were sent to kidnap the teen in order to clone him, and have his clones mate with the Spider Queens (clones of Adriana Soria) to create a powerful army under the Jackal's control. However, to Warren's disappointment, Alpha's clones didn't have any of his powers, as the accident that gave them to him did not alter his DNA. Seeing that would lead them to nowhere, one of the Jackal clones pressed a red button that destroyed all the clones present, including himself.; ===Sibling Rivalry===; One of Miles' clones assisted him in the creation of the Mutant-Powered Spider-Clones and in the capture of both Spider-Man and Scarlet Spider. The clone was eventually killed by the Scarlet Spider.; ===Dead No More: The Clone Conspiracy===; A new batch of Miles Warren clones was created by Ben Reilly to trick the real one into thinking he was a clone as punishment for using him to find a cure for the cellular degradation caused by his new cloning procedure. They were convinced to work for Reilly as payment for the pills he devised to keep their cellular degeneration at bay. With their assistance, Reilly built New U Technologies in hopes of using their cloning technology for good.; All of them died due to a signal set off by Reilly to destabilize the bodies of New U's clones worldwide, and cause a Carrion Virus outbreak with the intention of bringing every single person back as a clone once they had died.; ===Working for "Shadow Boss"===; More Jackal clones worked for the "Shadow Boss". One Jackal clone awakened Jackal's creations called the Killuminati (clones of the original Illuminati) as the one known as Bolt used his Black Bolt-esque abilities that resulted in his death. All that was left of the Jackal clone was his head held by the Winter Soldier.; ==Attributes==; ===Weaknesses===; Pill Dependence: In order to prevent their bodies from breaking down due to the cellular degradation caused by a flaw in Miles Warren's new cloning process, the New U batch of clones had to ingest a pill provided by Ben Reilly daily.

+History:
+The Mighty Avengers were a team of super heroes hand-picked by President Stark after the end of the Civil War. They were: Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers), Iron Spider (Natasha Romanov), Penance, Thunderstrike, and President Stark himself as the Iron Patriot.; ===Contest of Champions===; While attending a presidential parade commemorating the Registration Day, the Mighty Avengers were forcefully taken to Battlerealm by Maestro, the Hulk from an alternate reality. The Mighty Avengers' memories were altered by Maestro, who used the ISO-Sphere to do so, to make them think they were still on their home reality hunting down unregistered superhumans, while in reality they were confronting a group of unwilling contestants of Maestro's Contest of Champions.; Their battle was interrupted by the arrival of the Thunderbolts, who had been sent to Battlerealm to rescue President Stark and his Mighty Avengers. However, while everyone was distracted, Bullseye (one of the renegade champions) killed Penance by throwing one of her twin sai at his throat. She was in turn killed in retalation by Thunderstrike, who was then killed by another renegade champion, Ares.; An all-out battle between the three groups soon broke out, only ending when Iron Patriot killed the leader of the Thunderbolts, Steve Rogers. A furious Invisible Woman attacked Iron Patriot, destroying his armor from within using a expanding force field, revealing an Infinity Stone in Stark's chest. Stark revealed that was the Reality Stone, and that he had been using it to subtly manipulate reality in his favor back in their home reality. He tried to use it to subdue his enemies as well as his own allies, and make them forget what he had revealed to them, but it didn't work. Stark was then crushed by Maestro, who revealed to him that the Infinity Stones just worked on their native universe before proceeding to finish him off.; Maestro challenged the remaining contestants, as well as his allies, to defeat him, but they were no match for him. However, Maestro's victory was cut short with the help of two contestants he believed dead: Stick from Earth-616 and the Sentry of Earth-1611. While the rest of the contestants were fighting Maestro, Outlaw snatched the ISO-Sphere from him and wished the contest to be over. The ISO-Sphere was destroyed, the contestants were teleported to whichever place they wanted to be, and Maestro was sent to a cell in the Collector's museum.; While the contestants native from Earth-616 were sent back to their reality, the remaining members of the Avengers, the Thunderbolts and the Sentry decided to stay behind in Battleworld to protect its deposit of Iso-8 from any interdimensional invaders who attempted to get their hands on it, and thus was born the Civil Warriors.

The Avengers disagreed with setting up such a system, and disassembled, severing their ties to the government. Because of this, Marsh created his own team of Avengers, called the Mighty Avengers.; Their first official mission was to stop Baron von Strucker and they did so, with the help of Black Widow and Iron Man. The Mighty Avengers criticized the original team, calling them "vigilantes" and "renegades". Later, Marsh sent them to intercept three runaway Inhumans--Haechi, Flint, and Iso. They were met by the Avengers, who had come to warn the teenagers of the raid. As a result, a fight between the two Avengers' teams broke out, Captain America got seriously injured and the main Avengers were arrested. The only member who avoided arrest was Black Widow, who combined forces with Medusa and Black Bolt to rescue the Avengers. After getting away, Inhumans all over the world started to lose control over their powers, because of the registration disks and it was at this moment that Ultron revealed himself as Truman Marsh.; The Mighty Avengers and the Avengers worked together against Ultron and his sentries army and, eventually, Ultron's physical form was defeated. Unfortunately, Ultron had managed to possessed Tony Stark's body, knowing the Avengers wouldn't harm him.; However, Doctor Strange arrived and cast a spell to save Stark's life and stop Ultron, but in doing so, Iron Man was left trapped in a state of limbo halfway between the Dark Dimension and the natural world. The Avengers vowed to honor their friend's sacrifice and find a way to bring him home, starting with setting a new Avengers base, since Avengers Tower had been destroyed

After Michael was adopted by the her American cousins, the Marchands, the Miriam clone was made by the High Evolutionary's aid, creating a new form to transfer her mind into. Upon Jess waking up and serving Hydra, Miriam went mad with guilt and retreated to continue her research. After reuniting with Michael and learning of Rebecca's condition, an inherited side effect of Jonathan Drew's research, Miriam's anger lead her to blame Jess. From this, she hired Big Ronnie wish a specialized fabric which also monitored her vitals, and convinced Michael to administer a "flu shot" which depowered Jess' radiation immunity.; Following events from Rebecca's birthday party to Jess being brought to Wundagore, Miriam monitored Jess' vitals in a study to cure Rebecca of her condition as Michael guided her on acquiring materials needed. Upon meeting Jess at the Wundagore facility, Miriam appraised he daughter before Octavia Vermis mounted an assault. With defenses breached, Miriam pushed Jess into the line of fire of bullets only for Michael to rescue her. In a mad fit, Miriam spouts her origin while chasing her fleeing family and attacked Jess- blaming her for Rebecca's condition. As they fought, Octavia took the research and was ready to abduct Rebecca, but Miriam shifted her priorities and sacrificed herself so her family could escape.

+Species / origin: Formed by Hank Pym after the Skrull Invasion as a result of Loki's machinations
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Infinite Avengers Mansion
+History:
+===Avengers in a Dark Reign===; As Earth succumbed to a cascade of unnatural events, the genius Amadeus Cho and his partner, the muscle-bound demigod Hercules, started a quest to assemble a team of Avengers to solve the chaotic crisis. Cho concluded that, in order to build a successful team, they needed help from the loyal Avengers' butler Edwin Jarvis. After being recruited, Jarvis suggested that the adequate leader for such an initiative should be Hank Pym, an original member of the Avengers who had recently adopted the mantle of his ex-wife, the Wasp. At the time, Pym was partnered with the robotic wonder Jocasta in his Pympocket-based laboratory in Chicago. During that period, the officially sanctioned team of Avengers was commanded by the unscrupulous Norman Osborn, who was a target of his own ally, the God of Mischief Loki. Loki also wished to create his own team of Avengers to manipulate Osborn's activities. Masquerading as the Scarlet Witch, he cunningly approached Pym and his Avengers to offer additional heroes for their mission. With Pym's acceptance, the group was joined by the members of Young Avengers, the new Vision and his teammate Stature, the Captain America substitute U.S. Agent, and the erratic and savage Hulk.; The team gathered at the source of the chaotic crisis, as identified by Cho, the Wundagore Mountain. There, Modred the Mystic had summoned from the pages of the unholyDarkhold the demon-lord of chaos Chthon. Possessing the body of Quicksilver, Chthon was responsible for the chaos cascade that brought destruction to the planet. Iron Man arrived on the scene, hoping to take control of the team. With Earth consumed in chaos sparked by Chthon, the Avengers Hercules and U.S.Agent followed Iron Man, whose plan involved obliterating Mount Wundagore. Fearing the release of radioactive uranium from this act, Cho prompted Pym to intervene. Using a Ant-Man's Helmet devised by Cho, Pym scrambled Chthon's ability to communicate, incapacitating his power to cast spells. The Avengers knocked Chthon out and he was caged inside Darkhold again. The Vision managed to liberate Quicksilver's soul from the demonic control and restore his being, while Modred was consumed by the defiled grimoire. The disasters generated by the chaotic crisis were reversed as the Avengers triumphed. In disgrace, Iron Man left, advising Pym not to ruin the opportunity. The Hulk decided not to stay with the Avengers, wishing to be by himself. So did Quicksilver, until realizing the founder of the team was his long-time lost sister, the Scarlet Witch. Obsessed with being reunited with her, Quicksilver requested for membership after assisting the team in multiple missions.; Deciding the Mighty Avengers comprised an asset for her plans, Loki maintained her charade. As the Scarlet Witch, she coordinated the team with intel about several crisis around the glob. Thus, the group became an international team, with Pym focused on honoring the legacy and reputation of the original team, being opposed by Osborn and his H.A.M.M.E.R.. They were also supported by the organization G.R.A.M.P.A., being sanctioned to act outside of the United States. In escaping H.A.M.M.E.R. agents, Jocasta untethered the Pympocket base from reality, rendering it unfunctional. Pym contacted Reed Richards, hoping to borrow a dimensional wave inducer that had been left in the Fantastic Four's care by the late Bill Foster. When Richards refused to collaborate, Pym decided to have his team of Avengers break into the Fantastic Four's Baxter Building and steal the device while wearing image inducers. Pym was successful, and ultimately convinced Richards to hand the device over to his Avengers. Using the technology, Pym managed to adapt his Pympocket facilities to a new dimensional location. The degradation of the dimensional gateways required Jocasta to be voluntarily integrated into the system to hold it together. The end result was the creation of the Infinite Avengers Mansion, their new base, which would enable them to respond to any crisis by immediately teleporting to any location in the world.; ===All Avengers, Assemble!===; Quicksilver and U.S. Agent were sent by G.R.A.M.P.A. to China to team up with agent Ban-Luck and determine a possible alliance between the communist government and the Inhumans. They found out that the incident comprised an incursion caused by the exiled Inhuman king known only as the Unspoken. Outcast from his people for removing the Slave Engine and Xerogen Crystals from Attilan, the Unspoken wished to redeem himself by using the Engine and crystals to convert all of humanity into Alpha Primitives. For this purpose, he obliterated the People's Defense Force. In desperation, Quicksilver and the U.S.Agent decided to assemble all possible Avengers to oppose the threat. However, Loki sabotaged Quicksilver's attempt to contact the team by severing the communications, fearing that he could put a wedge in her plans and expecting for his demise. Stature caught Loki in the act, but was magically silenced. Therefore, she invited the Young Avengers into the Mansion and tricked them into summoning the "Scarlet Witch." Her tolerance for Stature lost, the Scarlet Witch unleashed her rage upon the Young Avengers. However, Clint Barton, the former Hawkeye, had sneaked into the Mansion and determined that the Scarlet Witch was an impostor by kissing her. Loki was forced to flee in order to escape exposure and cast a spell to prevent being summoned again. This canceled out the spell on Stature, who alerted the Avengers to what was happening in China.; The Mighty Avengers assembled, additionally gathering the New Avengers and the Avengers Resistance to tackle the Unspoken and prevent him from turning humanity into Alpha Primitives. The U.S.Agent had succumbed to his procedure. While Hercules and Cho infiltrated the Slave Engine, Hank Pym joined the fight to save the planet, personally dueling the Unspoken. The Avengers realized the Unspoken used temporal disruption to accelerate the harvesting of Xerogen Crystals for his plans. They ultimately managed to defeat him by turning the chronal technology against him, aging him up to the point he became a moribund creature. Moreover, using the same device, they reversed the effects of the Slave Engine in its victims. In the end, Quicksilver wished to return the Xerogen Crystals to Attilan, restoring his credibility among the Inhumans. The Inhumans were the rulers of the Kree Empire, located in Hala. When visiting the Inhuman Royal Family, the Avengers found their city attacked by the forces of Devos, the Devastator, and engaged in a battle against him. The Avengers were met by the Inhumans with ingratitude, since the intervention might have raised political tensions for the Inhumans wished not to be seen as weak before their people. In the end, the two associations parted ways in good terms.; The Avengers continued their global peacekeeping efforts on Earth. Their achievements overshadowed Osborn, who wished to destroy Pym and his Avengers once and for all. Loki manipulated Osborn into craving more glory over Pym's disgrace. Secretly, Loki also made one final test for Osborn, by having both Avengers teams pitted against the Absorbing Man in a Project: Pegasus facility. Not being able to attack the popular Avengers led by Pym in public, Osborn was forced to team up with them as the Absorbing Man got into contact with research on fragments of the Cosmic Cube. The reality-shaping properties of the artifact severely afflicted the Avengers. Meanwhile, Pym and Osborn raced to acquire the Cube, with Pym ultimately being able to trick Osborn into believing he had already accomplished the feat. Loki pulled strings in the fight as a way to cause Osborn to emerge as the final hero responsible for ending the Absorbing Man. Claiming Pym had no sanction to operate, Osborn publicly decommissioned the group, using his authority to strip the U.S.Agent of his rank. However, the commotion led Pym to recognize Loki as the impostor Scarlet Witch.; ===Mighty Avengers: Disassembled===; Using technology, Pym tracked Loki to a palace in the Isle of Silence, an Asgardian penitentiary location to set up a machine designed to trap the God of Mischief. The Avengers successfully restrained Loki, who in a desperate turn contacted his brother, the god of thunder Thor. Insulted by the construction of a device that could hurt gods, Thor unleashed his rage upon Pym's Avengers, until they reached a common agreement after sharing their interests. Ultimately, Pym offered Loki a position in his Mighty Avengers. In horror, all the other Avengers expressed their discontentment and believed the team was fated to disband in disgrace.; Around this time, Pym and some of his former Avengers assisted Hercules, who faced a major crisis concerning the gods of Olympus. Hera planned to bring extinction upon the universe through a mechanism called Continuum®. Pym was able to infiltrate Hera's headquarters alongside several other Avengers to launch an attack. However, working in coalition with Osborn, Hera had privileged information about Pym and his Avengers. In the end, Hera was defeated, but all was revealed to be a plot schemed by Athena to end the life of the lion of Olympus, Hercules. In sadness, the Avengers mourned the loss their teammate. The death of Hercules was the last straw, causing the Avengers to disband.; G.R.A.M.P.A.'s representatives Blackjack visited Pym at the Infinite Avengers Mansion to formally end their connection to his Avengers, but they stumbled upon Ultron, the living automaton, taking control over the Mansion's systems, which were apparently maintaining the essence of the original Wasp. This coincided with Osborn attacking Asgard as a result of Loki's machinations. The former Avengers joined forces under Cho's leadership to oppose Osborn's Thunderbolts. The Thunderbolts performed a heist in the Asgardian armory, but were confronted by the Avengers. The city of Asgard was obliterate during the catastrophic act to depose Osborn. The Avengers and some of the Thunderbolts ultimately joined forces to end the macabre Nuke, who wielded the Spear of Odin and mortally wounded the U.S.Agent. Meanwhile, Pym and Jocasta resisted Ultron. Shockingly, Ultron agreed to cease his attack in return for marrying Jocasta, a proposal she offered. This granted Ultron access to the technology of Pympocket, but afraid of being destroyed by the Avengers, he decided to depart to outer space. Following Loki's demise in the siege of Asgard, the Mighty Avengers assembled one last time for justice.

+History:
+Along with technician Bert, agent Horatio Cringebottom, a civil servant, was dispatched on missions across the Multiverse. Bert handled any technology, and Horatio handled the paperwork. Widget, a mechanical being who was a member of the superhero team Excalibur, was accidentally breaking the rules of interdimensional travel when Saturnyne gave the order to go to Earth-616. Saturnyne had known about the issue for a while but put off fixing it, and the timing of her finally giving the job to Horatio and Bert was apparently not coincidental, as it meant their arrival was timed to interrupt a fight between Excalibur and the Technet.; Excalibur was engaged in a losing conflict with Gatecrasher and her Technet when suddenly their adversaries stopped responding to strikes. When a pair of people suddenly appeared among them in a blaze of light, one of them revealed to the heroes that he was responsible for this unexpected turn of events. He introduced himself respectively, and said that they were agents of Saturnyne, assigned "to prosecute a writ about multiple infractions of interdimensional transit restrictions." The two explained that they were there to get Widget, contrary to Nightcrawler's assumption that Horatio was planning to take the Technet away for these infractions. Widget was taken from Bert's magnificent and ever-expanding toolbox when he opened it. Bert therefore made an effort to describe, "in tiny terms," how the device would merely prevent Widget from travelling to realities. After completing the task, Bert put his tools away and continued to fling himself at an uninterested Kitty Pryde. Horatio first reprimanded Bert for violating the rules against interacting with lesser lifeforms before offering his condolences to the heroes. Captain Britain noted that the team was losing a battle when they arrived and expressed surprise that Gatecrasher was attacking them. Captain Britain received a message crystal from Horatio to give to Gatecrasher after she came out of stasis.; ===Captain Britain's Wedding===; At the wedding of Brian Braddock and Meggan on Earth-616, Horatio and Bert were in attendance. Horatio was horrified that he would be made to perform the menial task of taking pictures at weddings. As they prepared the new bride and groom for their pictures, Tweedledope leapt in front of the bride and groom, was blinded by the flash, and knocked a plate of hors d'oeuvres into Hauptmann Englande, who chased after the creature. Bert then used his interdimensional transmitter tp relay messages from friends who could not attend the wedding: Spider-Man, Captain America and Black Knight.

Bloodstone shot Grottu's antennae, limiting his control of his ant army. Bloodstone found a warehouse full of sugar and then dumped it on Grottu. Grottu's army attacked him eating the sugar and they appeared to have killed their leader. Bloodstone followed back through the creature destructive path to the land of Wakanda. There he was a attack by a Tyrannosaurus rex but was saved by a Wakandan warrior named Zwadi. He was not able to find the true origin of the creature but believed that it hailed from a land deep underground.

+History:
+===Origin===; They were founded by Callisto, who discovered the tunnels and moved into them decades ago, shortly after they were abandoned. She enlisted the aid of Caliban in finding other mutants to create a new underground society and maintained the tunnels until the Mutant Massacre.; Morlock society had no actual class system, except for the leader who all Morlocks obeyed, somewhat like a huge street gang. Until recently, the leader was Callisto. Under her reign, Morlocks often raided the surface world, preying on the lower classes so that losses as a result of their activities would not be noticed. They stole furnishings, food, clothing, and the other necessities of life, but sometimes they stole children, too, as many Morlocks were sterile. This raiding was discontinued when Callisto lost her rule to Storm in a fight.; Most Morlocks were hideous and deformed, yet another reason for them to dwell away from society. When Storm and the X-Men offered to help resettle them on the surface, they declined because they felt the tunnels were the right place for them. This image of themselves as almost sub-human psychologically affected most Morlocks who felt frustrated, bitter, and vengeful about their situation.; Morlock society had many of its conflicts settled by combat. The decision of who would be the Morlock leader was settled by mortal combat in the past. Storm actually stabbed Callisto through the heart, officially killing her, and won the title. Though Storm was not in residence, she was still considered the leader. Callisto was saved from death at the last moment by the Healer. Though she was no longer the official ruler, Callisto usually made sure that law and order was upheld in Morlock society while Storm was gone.; ===Mutant Massacre===; Most of the Morlocks were hunted down and murdered by a group of mutant assassins known as the Marauders. The majority of the Morlocks that survived stayed with the X-Men. Sunder would later die by a Reaver, Masque and Callisto and others would leave the Institute. Many other Morlocks also were rescued by X-Factor and stayed under their protection for a while.; Masque would later lead a group of horribly mutated Morlocks against the X-Men and New Mutants. When Masque was killed after challenging X-Force, the Morlocks fell into chaos without a leader. Callisto returned while her suicidal lover Mikhail Rasputin flooded the tunnels and transported a number of Morlocks to a dimension called The Hill.; A later generation led by Marrow grew up angry and were urged on the Dark Beast, who had been manipulating and experimenting on them since his arrival from the Age of Apocalypse. As Gene Nation, they set bombs and attacked humans until Storm confronted Marrow directly. On a later adventure, Storm traveled to the Hill and forced Mikhail Rasputin to evacuate the Morlocks back to Earth. They eventually resettled in Africa.; Most of the Morlocks were considered dead, with Revelation being one of the last individuals.; In light of M-Day, a few Morlocks sought asylum at the Xavier Institute. The few that remained in the tunnels were under Marrow's protection.; Masque brought together a few Morlocks left after M-Day and was determined to find Magneto. Using diaries that he believed told the future, he plagued humans and fought the X-Men. He was defeated with the help of Skids, who was a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent in disguise.; Due to the appearance of the race-threatening phenomenon of the M-Pox, a disease that affected mutants when they came into contact with the Terrigen Mists, of which a gigantic cloud had been spread throughout the atmosphere, the amount of mutants living underground increased significantly. In addition to the mutants, Callisto also welcomed humans who were scared of the global landscape. Working together as the embodiment of Charles Xavier's dream of human and mutant co-existence, this group of mutants and humans lived together as the New Morlocks.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The Moon Clan are a group of humans that were not manipulated by the Celestials
+Reality: Earth-9997
+Base of operations: Canada
+Weapons: All members of the Moon Clan posses bone claws that they gained through natural evolution
+History:
+===Origins===; When the Celestials came to Earth to implant the planet with a Celestial embryo, they manipulated early man in order to turn humanity into unwitting protectors of the embryo and created the Moon as a home for the Watcher, who would ensure the embryo's safety.; However, the Celestials did not implant their mutagenic seed into every single human. They believed that the seed would eventually spread out to all of mankind in time. However, they did not count on some of the early humans coming to worship the Moon. When the Celestial ship blocked the sight of the Moon, these humans came to view the Celestials, and the humans who came into contact with them, as enemies.; Hiding themselves away in the wilds, these unmanipulated humans soon became persecuted by their former kin. Those who had been touched by the Celestials became more aggressive and sickly, shortening their lifespans compared to the unmanipulated Moon Clan. In order to adapt, the Moon Clan and other unmanipulated humans became more aggressive themselves in order to fend off attackers.; They would continue to dwell apart, in hard to reach wilderness areas. Occassionally, they would be discovered by their manipulated kindred, who often made them live the lives of shideshow freaks and performers. Sometimes, Moon Clan children would be taken into human families as foundlings.; ===Modern Times===; In the 19th century, a Moon Clan foundling was taken in by the wealthy Canadian John Howlett to be raised as his son. This boy came to believe that he was a mutant and grew up to become the superhero Wolverine.; In the 21st century, after the mutation of mankind, Candian superhero team Alpha Flight were decimated by a Wendigo attack. The last survivors, Sasquatch and Guardian were found and taken in by the Moon Clan.

+Page: Muir Island X-Men (Earth-616)
+Full name: Muir Island X-Men
+Other aliases: X-Men; Muir Islanders
+First appearance: Uncanny X-Men Vol 1 254
+Created by: Chris Claremont; Marc Silvestri
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Formed initially in order to repel the Reavers' assault on Muir Island
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Muir Island
+Equipment: Environmental Suits/Body Armor Uniforms
+Notes: For an attempt at a possible all new X-Men team, the team only initially had two mutants, while also having one sorceress and four non-powered humans.; The humans on the team relied on their uniform for physical protection and used guns as their primary weapons.
+History:
+The Muir Island X-Men were a team of mostly X-Men reservists and associates (including several non-mutants) who came together during an emergency situation at a time when most of the world believed the official team of X-Men had died in battle during the Fall of the Mutants. This short-lived team was never officially sanctioned by Charles Xavier or any of the members of the main X-Men team. As their name suggests, they used Moira Kinross' Muir Island research facility as their base of operations.; ===The Reavers===; The team formed during the Reavers' siege of the island. Banshee had recently regained his powers thanks to the Morlock Healer. He rescued Polaris from the Marauders' control, and brought her to Muir with him. Moira then performed tests that determined Polaris' magnetic abilities had waned while at the same time she gained a new power to harness a then-unknown energy source to increase her strength, size, and invulnerability.; Banshee then met up with Amanda Sefton and Alysande Stuart who were in search for the Britain-based team Excalibur. On their way to Muir Island, all three were attacked by the Reavers, who had been dispatched on a mission to murder Moira and Banshee. Amanda used her magical abilities to teleport them away in the nick of time. The Reavers pursued them however and during a skirmish, Sean was mortally wounded but saved once again by the Morlock Healer.; The Muir Island residents regrouped to fight back against their attackers. Moira had Polaris, Amanda, Tom Corsi, Sharon Friedlander, and Alysande suited up in new X-Uniforms and sent them out to defend the island. But Legion (who was called Danny rather than David at the time) betrayed the Muir Island X-Men by secretly aiding the Reavers. Legion's meddling helped lead to the capture of all of the Muir Island X-Men as well as the death of Sunder in an extended conflict. Eventually, Banshee joined in the fight but was taken down as well.; Forge had gone to Muir Island to find Storm (whom he believed was there because of a vision he had experienced in a spirit walk) and was captured as well. Valerie Cooper ordered Freedom Force to aid the Muir Island X-Men, despite Mystique's protests. With the aid of Freedom Force, the Muir Island X-Men were finally able to repel the Reavers.; After the conflict with the Reavers, Forge chose to remain in Scotland and became a member of the Muir Island team while Freedom Force returned to America. He aided Banshee in constructing a new defense system for the island. Meanwhile, Polaris' new powers manifested a side effect of causing everyone on the island to exhibit a darker personality. Moira was particularly affected by this. At the same time, Legion’s Jack Wayne personality had secretly taken control of Danny and subdued the rest of his multiple personalities. Jack/Legion locked up Polaris in a top security cell and left her there to rot while he amused himself by toying with the rest of the Muir Island residents.; ===Search for the X-Men===; Moira hooked Danny up to the recently recovered Cerebro in the hope that he could use his telepathy to find the X-Men. Once Legion began using Cerebro, however, Amahl Farouk a.k.a. the Shadow King emerged and took control of him.; Based on Danny’s (actually the Shadow King’s) statements, Banshee and Forge believed that Storm at least could be found in Cairo, Egypt. They left to search for her without telling Moira where they were going since Banshee no longer trusted Moira’s darker personality. They set out for Egypt unaware that Storm was actually in Cairo, Illinois.; While Cylla Markham was flying Banshee and Forge to Egypt, she happened to show them a magazine with Dazzler on the cover. The men decided to go to California instead of Cairo as they believed Dazzler was a more concrete lead. They parted ways with Cylla, whose plane was then blown up by the Fenris twins in an attempt to murder Banshee (whom they mistakenly believed was still on the plane).; While on their way to California, Banshee and Forge made a stopover at Xavier's mansion. Finding the school in ruins, they set up shop and rebuilt it. Everyone believed they had died in the plane explosion and Banshee wanted to keep it that way for a while since he no longer trusted Moira. The two men planned to infiltrate Muir Island through a backdoor in the island's defense system that only they knew about with the intention of figuring out what was really going on with Moira. Before they returned, Banshee decided they first had to warn the other X-Men of the potential threat to their lives.; ===Joining X-Factor===; Jean Grey, then a member of X-Factor, paid a visit the newly-rebuilt X-Mansion and teamed up with Banshee and Forge to fight mysterious evil doppelgangers of the X-Men. All three then went on a mission to save Colossus and Callisto from rogue Morlocks.; Following that rescue mission, Banshee, Forge, Colossus, and Callisto all went with Jean to X-Factor's spaceship which they discovered was under attack by the Genoshan Magistrates and Press Gang. The combined mutant forces (aided by Officer Charlotte Jones) were able to defeat the attackers. Afterwards, Banshee and Forge remained with X-Factor while the amnesiac Colossus and Callisto opted to leave.; ===The Muir Island Saga===; Back on Muir Isle, Legion (possessed by the Shadow King) mentally enslaved the remaining Muir Island residents, including Moira, Amanda, Tom Corsi, Strong Guy, Sharon Friedlander, Multiple Man, Siryn, and Polaris. The Shadow King was also able to mentally manipulate Colossus, Rogue, and Stevie Hunter from afar.; By then, Prof. X had returned from an extended sojourn in the Shi’ar Galaxy and led all the members of the X-Men and X-Factor at that time on an assault against the Shadow King. A long campaign took place in which the Shadow King was finally defeated and his mentally enslaved captives were freed from his control. In the aftermath, there was a major reshuffling of team memberships. The original X-Factor team rejoined the X-Men as did Forge and Banshee in support roles. Several of the Muir Island mutants - Polaris, Guido, and Jamie Madrox - left to fill the vacancies in the X-Factor roster. With a majority of its members now departed and the conflict that necessitated the team coming together having been resolved, this was effectively the end of the Muir Island X-Men.

+Base of operations: Morlock Town, beneath New York City
+History:
+The Morlocks are an underground mutant community living beneath New York City in a chamber connected to the sewer system, called "Morlock Town". The Morlocks have no desire to be part of the human society, given their inhuman features, and they consider groups like the X-Men as the surface world's pet mutants. The Morlocks planned to be ready for the upcoming war between mutants and humans, growing their food in hydroponic gardens to make themselves as self-sufficient as possible, as well as choosing their leader out of strength, not skill. Hence, they tested each new arrival in combat to ensure their worthiness to join. They used to be led by the superhumanly strong Sunder, who also possessed a fast healing factor. Other members included Callisto, a woman who hides a tentacled monster beneath her eye patch; Sparks, a young girl whose power to generate natural electricity powered the Morlock compound; Caliban, who could transform into a hulking monster; Leech, who could block other mutants' powers; and Pyro, who could generate and control flame. Despite the Morlocks' hatred for the surface world, Pyro respected the X-Men, and after hearing of the murder of Charles Xavier, the X-Men founder, he abandoned the tunnels to join them and avenge his idol, ending up in battle with the Friends of Humanity. The police arrived, and before they could try to arrest Pyro, he was teleported away by Nightcrawler, a former X-Man who had left the team in disgrace. Seeking to start a new life after his personal conflicts with the X-Men and the people he had let down, Nightcrawler listened with interest as Pyro told him of the Morlocks, and after they parted ways, Nightcrawler went down into the sewers to find them. Meanwhile, the X-Men disbanded after Xavier's death, and his former students were now in charge of Xavier's school. This new team wanted to open their doors to all available mutants, and they sent their newest recruit, Toad, who had told them of the Morlocks' existence, into the sewers to pass on an invitation to return to the surface as part of their school.

+History:
+Moonstar Cadre was a division of the mutant army led by General Magneto in defence of Fortress X. Led by Moonstar, they were ordered by Magneto to track down the fugitive Legacy. The team found her, but were thwarted in their attempts at capturing her by Gambit, who rescued her and fled. The two were seemingly killed by Magneto, who dropped an enormous amount of debris, crushing them.; Moonstar Cadre's mission was seemingly completed, but X suggested to Moonstar that their mission had been a sham since the start, and that Magneto himself was guilty of the conspiracy Legacy had been accused of. When Magneto broke into Fortress X's dungeon to liberate Katherine Pryde and Charles Xavier, Moonstar Cadre tracked him down and demanded answers. Magneto confirmed that there was a conspiracy going on to bring about the fall of Fortress X, but that he was not it's ringleader, but looking for answers and a way to cease the endless struggle of their lives. Just as he managed to convince Moonstar Cadre of his intentions, the Force Warriors interrupted, and knocked Magneto unconscious, declaring Fortress X under their jurisdiction.; Before the two teams could break out in a fight, Xavier diffused the situation by telling them and the rest of the mutant resistance the truth about Fortress X and their lives; that they were just created by a rogue personality from Legion's mind and that Fortress X had in fact only existed for a week, not 1000 days. Angered that they had listened to Xavier, Moira created a gigantic assault by the human forces. Moonstar Cadre and the rest of the mutants rushed to the defence of the Fortress. Meanwhile, Legion re-absorbed his rogue persona, and restored the universe to its original shape.

+History:
+===Origin===; During his long life, Wolverine met and fell in love with many women and, unknown to him, he also fathered a number of children. Those children were found through the years by another of Logan's sons, Daken.; Daken then gave them to an evil organization who wanted revenge on Wolverine for what he did to them in the past: the Red Right Hand. On Daken’s advice, the Red Right Hand trained them in order to use them as weapons against Logan, but knowing perfectly that they wouldn't stand a chance against him. Their training completed, the Red Right Hand named them The Mongrels.; ===Vendetta against Wolverine===; The Mongrels became a group of mercenaries whose main mission was to make Wolverine's life a living hell. The plan was to cause as much suffering imaginable, and that included the torture of his friends and family. The Mongrels were led by Gunhawk and the rest of the team includes Shadowstalker, Fire Knives, Saw Fist, and Cannon Foot.; One of the team's targets was Wolverine's girlfriend at the time, Melita Garner. They found her working in the San Francisco Post building. When they found and attacked Melita, they were shocked to find her with a Skrull sonic disruptor, which she fired at the team. Melita escaped from the Mongrels with the help of the mutant shape shifter Mystique. The team returned to report their failure to the The Red Right Hand. They then decided to proceed to their next target in the nation of Madripoor.; After they arrived in Madripoor, The Mongrels searched the city to find the Princess Bar. They entered the bar and massacred the bouncers and staff, but Tyger Tiger intervened when Gunhawk tried to open a certain door. Gunhawk told Tyger "Logan is in hell," and burned the room down, which was filled with mementos and possessions that Wolverine had accumulated over his long lifetime.; ===Final Revenge===; After escaping from Hell, Wolverine invaded the Red Right Hand's base, where he was confronted by the Mongrels. Despite what they did to his friends, he gave each one of them a chance to surrender peacefully but the Mongrels attacked him on sight and tried to kill him. As a result Logan killed most of them, while the others killed themselves; and after defeating the leader of the Mongrels, Gunhawk, Logan confronted the members of the Red Right Hand.; To his surprise, the members of the Red Right Hand had already killed themselves, leaving Wolverine with only a message: the Mongrels were his children. This revelation and the fact that he killed his own children devastated Logan. Wolverine then dragged the bodies of his slain children to the grave of their mothers and buried them both together.; It's unknown if The Mongrels were aware that Daken was their half-brother and Logan their father, as the Red Right Hand and Daken only told them what was necessary to make them fight and die against their own father.

+Murder Incorporated was a group of men who founded a community mission for the homeless in New York City in the year 1944. The seeming act of charity was merely a front to exploit the cities homeless for their personal gain. Each homeless man admitted to the shelter was made to sign a life insurance policy taken out in their name. Murder, Inc then arranged for fatal "accidents" to occur, allowing the mission to claim the insurance and make large sums of money.; When members of Murder, Inc. attempted to kill a homeless man with a hit-and-run, Madeline Joyce witnessed the attack and changed into Miss America to foil the attempt and capture the driver. Forcing him to reveal the secret of his employers' operation, Miss America arrived at the community mission just in time to prevent another murder. However, she was clubbed over the head and tossed into the East River to drown. Breaking free, Miss America flew back to the mission and rounded up the members of Murder, Inc, and turned them all over to the authorities.; The fate of the group members is unknown but, in recent times, Silver Sablinova considered (and discarded) a mercenary job opposing Murder, Inc., suggesting that the organization was still active in the Modern Age.

+Trivia: The name "Monsters of Evil" appears to be a wordplay on the Masters of Evil.
+History:
+Before being possessed by demons, each one of the Monsters of Evil were ancient and powerful monsters. Gragoa was once feared as a god in what is now the Mole Man's kingdom. Lord Tiki was an ancient idol brought to life by a botched fertility ritual. The Worm was an alien that came to Earth to study humanity, which she did by committing a string of cattle mutilations. Once the local farmers discovered she was the culprit, they destroyed her spaceship and the lab inside it. Skunk Ape was a human scientist whose evolutionary research backfired, transforming him into a giant simian. The Sphinx was accidentally brought forward in time to the present from its native Egypt thanks to its own riddles and curses. At some point, each one of them was captured by Daimon Hellstrom and the D.O.A. and possessed them with demons, inducting them into their Monsters of Evil.; When confronted by Agent Venom, Daimon Hellstrom possessed his foe's symbiote with a demon to turn him into one of his Monsters of Evil. Venom took control of the demon and fled to Katherine Kiernan's apartment. She took him to her friend, Reggie, who tried to exorcise the demon from him. The demon, which wanted to be exorcised, couldn't break free because his vessel was dragging him back down, and explained that it was forbidden to possess those who bore the Hell-Mark. Reggie then advised Agent Venom to find whoever it was who did this to him.; Agent Venom ambushed and attacked Daimon Hellstrom and some D.O.A. members at a zoo in Bronx. Hellstrom then unleashed the Monsters of Evil on Venom, but he fought through them to attack Hellstrom only to be flung by Gragoa across the zoo, into the reptile house. Hellstrom ordered the monsters to hunt him down, either to join them or to have his demon liberated by his death. Venom ambushed and attacked the Sphinx, and its screams summoned the other monsters. Venom controlled them to attack Hellstrom and after brutally beating him, Venom ordered them to leave, warning that if they became a threat to humans, he'd hunt them down. The Monsters of Evil obeyed and vanished into the woods.; After Venom and Mania fought Crossbones when they were trying to make contact with Mephisto, the demon summoned the Monsters of Evil using a portal on Master Mayhem's chest to serve Mania, who was in possesion of the symbiote's hell-mark, and she commanded them to defeat the D.O.A.. In the end, Mephisto sent the Monsters of Evil back home with some D.O.A. members as snacks for their trip.; When attacked by Carnage, Andi summoned the Monsters of Evil to come to her aid. However, they proved no match for Carnage's symbiote, who easily tore them to shreds.

+Equipment: Planetary analyzers: tripod like devices that drill into the core of a planet to run tests to determine if the world the Monitors are on is considered worthy. Each device was powered by a different female robot.
+History:
+The Monitors were Ingesteev, Kordazt, and Nygorn, three members of the Marvanite race. Hailing from the planet Marvan, they came from a society that had reach the pinnacle of perfection. With no further drive to improve themselves, the Monitors were formed and sent out into the cosmos to find inhabited worlds and determine if they were worthy of continued existence. To assist them on this mission they also included three humanoid robots named Kallara, Milandra, and Askare who helped operate their testing devices. Over the centuries the Monitors found no world that fit their rigid ideas of perfection and they were destroyed. However with each planet they eliminated, their three robots grew to have emotions and became horrified by what they were charged to do. Ultimately they reached the planet Earth and here Kallara and her fellow robots enlisted the aid of the novice hero Nova and the Fantastic Four's Thing to try and stop the Monitors. During the ensuing battle, Ingesteev and Kordazt were slain fighting the heroes. With their mission aborted, Nygorn was offered an ultimatum from his former slaves: return with them to Marvan to convince their ruler, King Suzerain the errors of his way. Not wishing to do battle with his foes, Nygorn conceded and left with the three female robots.

+History:
+When Earth scientist Reed Richards set out to travel to the planet Spyre aboard a rocketship, the Overseer of Spyre became aware of the planned incursion and manipulated a cosmic ray storm Richards' ship had to pass through to increase its intensity and scuttle his ship. Richards and the tripulants of the ship were bestowed superpowers by the cosmic rays and turned into the Fantastic Four. Fearing that the now-empowered explorers would attempt to continue their original mission, the Overseer deviced a procedure to harness cosmic rays and grant his own people super-powers in hopes to stand up against the potential invaders.; The Monster Mob was the organized horde of Spyricans banished from civilization and into Capital City's Lowtown after subjecting themselves to the cosmic rays and emerging disfigured. They were led by Big King Scrum, the first of the rejects. Scrum regularly used to send members of the Monster Mob to terrorize Hightown as part of a secret agreement with Overseer, to give the Unparalleled, the mutates who were not turned into monsters and remained in society, something to fight to prepare them for the possible arrival of the Fantastic Four.; When the Fantastic Four traveled to Spyre and confronted the Unparalleled on arrival, The Thing was flung during battle into Lowtown, where he was attacked by the Monster Mob while Scrum watched, since they blamed the Fantastic Four for their predicament. After The Thing fought through hordes of monsters, Scrum confronted him personally, but was defeated as well. The Thing refused to kill Scrum or take his subjects for himself, and instead rallied the Monster Mob into crawling their way back to Hightown to reclaim their place in society. Their rebellion was opposed by the Unparalleled, but the confrontation came to a pause when Mister Fantastic exposed to the public the fact that the Overseer had manipulated the cosmic ray storm, meaning the Overseer was responsible for granting the Fantastic Four their powers.; After this revelation, the Monster Mob became even more enraged and continued fighting the Unparalleled. When The Thing reached the Overseer's Tower of Over-Site to confront him, their subsequent fight collapsed the building. The Monster Mob joined forces with the Fantastic Four, the Unparalleled to contain the falling debris. After the Fantastic Four made peace with the Overseer and the Unparalleled, Mister Fantastic shared with the Spyricans a temporary cure that would allow each mutate to regain their normal form once a year. As a result, a process began to accept the Monster Mob back into society.

+Species / origin: Formerly organized by Magneto as a new Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, later they reorganized themselves as Mutant Force
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+===Mutant Force===; The Master of Magnetism and founder of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Magneto, assembled a new group of minions for his cause of mutant supremacy. Peeper, Slither, Shocker, Lifter, and Burner joined his operation, being based in a tower in a suburban area. Through a newspaper ad, Magneto learned about a debilitated mutant in need of help. Going to the mutant's rescue, he clashed with Captain America, who had also had access to the information. They learned about the existence of Mister One and Mister Two, a two-bodied creature formed by the microscopic mind of Mister One and the gargantuan physique of Mister Two. Magneto saw in Mister One an opportunity to infiltrate a concise spaceship he had secured. However, Captain America thwarted his recruitment attempts and brought Mister One and Mister Two to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s custody. In order to kidnap Mister One, Magneto sent his lackeys to distract Captain America and Mister Two. The team retreated as S.H.I.E.L.D. agents intervened, but Magneto was successful in his plan. Captain America and Mister Two joined forces to rescue Mister One, battling Magneto's minions in the process. Mister Two was murdered by Burner. Not being able to survive without his other half, Mister One detonated the spaceship Magneto wished to weaponize. Amidst the chaos, Magneto and his agents escaped.; The villain Mandrill reorganized the decadent group for his interests, dubbing them the Mutant Force. They worked in coalition with Fem-Force, a harem of female warrior women brainwashed by the Mandrill. They tried to seize control of a military base in Colorado, but a distress call reached the Defenders, who fended them off. However, the heroes were ultimately deceived by the apparent victims and captured by the Mandrill. The female Defenders were seduced, then the Mandrill named controlled Defenders Valkyrie and Hellcat as the new leaders of his team, a decision the Mutant Force resented, in a second attempt to invade the military base. Able to resist his influence, the girl Dian Wilkins managed to recuperate the Defenders. During a violent ordeal, Valkyrie overcame the Mandrill's influence, then beat the Mutant Force. They were defeated and arrested, and the Mandrill abandoned them to escape.; Instead of being sent to prison, Mutant Force was assigned a mission by the intelligence services to get pardoned. As governmental agents, they tackled the menacing Defender Hulk. The group was overpowered even though they had military backup, and the Hulk was rescued by the Defenders. Influenced by the Tribunals, Mutant Force debriefed the ordeal to justify the deactivation of the Defenders alongside Hellcat's ex-husband Buzz Baxter. They eventually abandoned their sanctioned job and had a chance to get revenge against the Defenders. Hired by the Secret Empire, they were led by Baxter under the alias of Mad-Dog. In a failed attempt to ruin Hellcat's wedding ceremony to Daimon Hellstrom, Mad-Dog and the Mutant Force were defeated. Placed under S.H.I.E.L.D.'s arrest, Mad-Dog and Mutant Force managed to escape, rejoining the Empire's ranks. The Defenders made imperative to stop the Secret Empire plans. The Defenders fought Secret Empire and Mutant Force, learning the mastermind behind the attacks to be Professor Power, who wished to extend his influence over the world and to punish Professor Xavier's pupils. The Defenders resisted his actions, fighting Mutant Force one more time. In the end, the mutant terrorists were defeated and recaptured by S.H.I.E.L.D., with Professor Power being finished off by the Defenders.; ===Resistants===; In the face of the Mutant Registration Act, Mutant Force rebranded themselves as the Resistants. Adopting new identities, Lifter, Peeper, Shocker and Burner adopted, respectively, the identities of Meteorite, Occult, Paralyzer, and Crucible. They recruited several mutants to their cause, including Mist Mistress, and set up a base in Mesmero's former Mutant City, in California. Slither defected at some point, becoming a minion for the Viper. In one of their first missions, the Resistants rescued and recruited the mutant Quill, who had been arrested by the new Captain America under the Commission's orders. The Resistants broke the telepath Mentallo from prison. As Think-Tank, Mentallo accepted to psychically guide the Resistants in liberating oppressed mutants. They were attracted to a court-martial under the information that Quicksilver was being trialed. In fact, that was a ruse orchestrated by the Commission's group of mutant agents of Freedom Force to trap them. With extreme brutality, the new Captain America knocked the Resistants out, ruining any chance of Freedom Force locating their base.; The Red Skull secretly used the Resistants sporadically as pawns for his machinations, funding their operations. Eventually, the Red Skull targeted Magneto. The Resistants were influenced to stage a protest and demand Magneto to join them to catch his attention. By sending a robotic doppelgänger of Magneto to attack the protesters, the Red Skull caused the original Captain America to react. The Resistants eventually established themselves within the superhuman criminal community. After clashing, by chance, with Super-Patriot, who they mistook for Captain America, the Resistants were arrested due to the intervention of Dead Ringer.; ===Back to Basics===; Going back to their origins, the group Magneto first assembled returned to their identities as members of the Mutant Force again. Entangled in criminal activities, they were easily apprehended by the New Warriors. Following mutant-related crises, the group apparently disbanded. After the destruction of Genosha, Shocker was among the survivors who struggled in its ruins. Later on, most of the Mutant Force were depowered during the mutant Decimation. Peeper was an exception, but he was eventually murdered by a Predator X. The surviving members of Mutant Force reassembled later. In an attempt to attack a military base, they were apprehended and taken to the Triskelion by Alpha Flight, which was commanded by Captain Marvel.

+Base of operations: Mobile; Formerly:; Krakoa; Island M
+Transportation: Zero's teleportation
+History:
+===Stryfe's Mutant Terrorists===; The team seemed mainly organized of disillusioned, anarchic mutant youths. Stryfe founded the group sometime after coming to the 20th century (from roughly 2,000 years in the future). They were likely assembled as a tool while Stryfe assembled his master plan. The exact size of the organization is unknown, but they were seen to have had several advanced bases around the world, and employed a number of presumably human guards.; In their first public terrorist raid, the Mutant Liberation Front had a mission rescuing Rusty and Skids, two New Mutants who had been captured by the Freedom Force and kept captive by the government. The squad was formed by the vicious Wildside, the time-manipulating Tempo, the wicked Reaper, the brutal Forearm, the exquisite Strobe, the imperious Thumbelina, and the enigmatic teleporter Zero. Their attempt at infiltrating the base was successful, and Rusty and Skids joined then, even after they were intercepted by the resourceful Cable, Stryfe's archnemesis. Following this incident, Cable took supervision over the other New Mutants. Under his leadership, the youngster mutants tackled Stryfe's operations in Madripoor, which involved poisoning major cities of the world. The agents Dragoness, Sumo, and Kamikaze confronted the New Mutants and the atomic knight Sunfire, when Stryfe revealed himself on field. With the assistance of Wolverine, the New Mutants defeated Stryfe and the Mutant Liberation Front, forcing a retreat and destroying the poison supplies.; Stryfe's next mission tasked the Mutant Liberation Front of attacking the country of Genosha, which employed mutant slave labour. However, Cable, who had reformed the New Mutants as the lethal X-Force invaded their base in Antarctica. Stryfe chose to escape, terminating his base to cover his leave. Maintaining their criminal activities, the Mutant Liberation Front clashed with Kane in Canada, when Stryfe made public that he was a version of Cable, which caused Kane to strike at Cable and X-Force later on. The Mutant Liberation Front also freed the Nasty Boys from captivity, leading them to clash with X-Factor, a mutant government operation. Their next mission was to destroy the Tucker Clinic, where pregnant parents had access to DNA testing to check whether or not their children were mutants. Thanks to an anonymous tip, Dr. Tucker was informed in advance and X-Factor was contacted to prevent the terrorist attack. Dr. Tucker was still murdered and his data destroyed. Unbeknownst to all, the tip had been provided by Tempo, who was possibly Tucker's daughter.; ===Reign of Fire===; After the organization was dismantled, some of the imprisoned were liberated and recruited by a mysterious villain named Reignfire, who was believed to be a futuristic version of Sunspot. Already among the ranks of the new MLF were former New Mutant member Moonstar (undercover on behalf of S.H.I.E.L.D.) and Locus. X-Force's Feral also defected to the MLF, and Tempo betrayed them one more time and went her own way. After a few minor missions, including a group that infiltrated Muir Island to obtain information on the Legacy Virus, the group was captured by members of Operation: Zero Tolerance.; ===Krakoa===; The MLF relocated to Krakoa to be a part of the mutant nation.; ===Fall of X===; Following the Orchis takeover of Krakoa and the banishment of most of mutantkind on Earth, a new Mutant Liberation Front was formed by Captain Krakoa, whom its members believed to be Cyclops. He recruited the Blob and Wildside before rescuing the Fenris Twins from the Pit. At an anti-mutant rally in Washington, D.C., the group was confronted by the Avengers Unity Division, rebuilt by Captain America to fight Orchis and stop Captain Krakoa's actions.; ===Shadows of Tomorrow===; The MLF reformed under the mysterious Kali Sez, who sent new members Unveil, Speedburn, DePOP, and Resonant to bomb a facility in Jersey City but they were stopped by Ms. Marvel and X-Force before they could hurt any innocents with their actions. As the site was developing software for an app to track down mutants, X-Force destroyed the facility while letting the area's personnel escape unharmed, but Kali claimed credit and denounced X-Force as traitors to mutantkind for opposing her MLF. Through her streaming channel, Kali was able to radicalize more people, including humans, to her cause, which emboldened the MLF into committing more blatant and aggressive acts of terrorism. Believing that Kali's propaganda would lead to the future assassination of President Kamala Khan, the first mutant President of the United States, Cable formulated a plan with X-Force to stop her activities before any innocents could get hurt. They lured the new MLF members into a trap and captured them.

+Created by: Robert Kirkman; Ben Oliver
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-1610
+History:
+Having purchased the mutant-killing Sentinel robots, Fenris International hired Stryfe, a mutant able to enhance existing emotions, to form a terrorist group, the Mutant Liberation Front, to provide the world with a reason to need Sentinels, thus picking up on lucrative production contracts. Stryfe swiftly recruited disaffected mutants, passing the MLF off as a civil rights group, and gradually increasing the discontent of its members. When mutant rights champion Charles Xavier, founder of the X-Men, was murdered, many mutants suspected government involvement; concluding the time was right, the MLF went public, holding rallies and marches demanding justice. Stryfe ensured that protests hovered on the edge of violence, then when the Sentinels would attack, he would urge his followers to fight back, just before having his assistant Zero teleport him out of harm's way. The X-Men came to the MLFs rescue during one Sentinel attack; afterwards the telepathic X-Man Psylocke sensed Stryfe's insincerity, and prompted her teammate Pyro to try and infiltrate the MLF, taking quitting the X-Men in support of Stryfe's rhetoric.; Though Stryfe told Pyro he knew this was a deception, he let the X-Man stay, claiming the MLF had nothing to hide. However when the Sentinels attacked a Central Park MLF rally, Pyro spotted Stryte leaving before the Sentinels appeared, and realized he was connected to those controlling the robots. The revelation proved moot, as Zero teleported Stryfe back to Fenris International, where they found the X-Men, who had tracked the Sentinels back to base, waiting for them; Zero abandoned Stryfe to face the music.; The X-Men handed Stryfe over to SHIELD custody, then rushed to stop the attack on the rally. With many MLF members, such as the lycanthropic Wolfsbane, having died in the attack, and Stryfe in custody, it remains to be seen whether the MLF will hold together or disband.

+Species / origin: Humans posing as mutant terrorists to increase anti-mutant sentiment.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Humanity's Last Stand complex, East Buffolk, Oklahoma
+History:
+This version of the Mutant Liberation Front (MLF) was a front organization of Humanity's Last Stand, created to intentionally increase tensions between humans and mutants. The various team members were technology users posing as mutants.; The MLF contacted S.H.I.E.L.D. to inform the agency that they were going to assassinate the supposedly hypocritical reverend William Conover. The S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Kymberly Taylor was tasked with guarding Conover, while her agency recruited the Punisher as her new partner. The Federal Bureau of Investigation tasked Carl Denti with guarding Conover.; An initial attack by the MLF agent Deadeye failed due to the Punisher's intervention. During a rematch between the two foes, Deadeye defeated the Punisher, but he was then attacked by the X-Cutioner, who killed him by using a weapon created by the Shi'ar.; Blastfurnace successfully destroyed Deadeye's corpse before an autopsy could be performed. Elsewhere, Corpus Derelecti was defeated and mutilated by the Punisher. Blastfurnace killed his teammate before anyone had a cbance to interrogate the defeated man.; Blastfurnace initially had the upper hand in a battle against the Punisher and the X-Cutioner, until the two men co-operated to cause an explosion within his armor. He was instantly killed. Conover was escorted by his various bodyguards to a train that would transport him to Oklahoma. The MLF send Burnout to attack Conover, while a new Deadeye was tasked with destroying the train tracks.; Burnout kidnapped Conover instead of killing him. She transported him to a hidden base of Humanity's Last Stand.Simon Trask wanted to convert a mind-controlled Conover to his cause. Trask was disturbed when Denti publicly announced that he had evidence that MLF's agents were not real mutants. Trask arranged for most of the active MLF agents to attack and capture Denti. While they succeeded in their mission, they were unaware that Denti was only feigning defeat.; Denti used Shi'ar technology to escape from the enemy base, and to then return alongside Frank Castle and Taylor. The attackers killed Deadeye and Blastfurnace in order to reach and rescue Conover. Blindspot refused to fight the Punisher, because she was more interested in protecting members of her family who lived in the base. Trask killed Blindspot in reaction to her insubordination. Trask tried to use explosives to destroy the base and everyone within it. He was attacked and briefly by one of the MLF agents, Thermal. Trask shot her in retaliation, but she was carried to safety by the Punisher.; Following Trask's apparent death in a massive explosion, Trish Tilby revealed his role as the mastermind behind the MLF's terrorist attacks to the general public. Thermal was comatose for a while, but she eventually recovered in NYU Medical Center. She was presumed to be the last surviving member of the MLF. She gave testimony about Frank Castle's heroism to a U.S. Marshall. Castle had disappeared after the explosion, but Thermal's story convinced the Marshall that Castle had also survived the explosion but then took the opportunity to let the world presume him to have died.

+Reality: Earth-9105
+History:
+The Mutant Liberation Front is a group of superbeings, most of them mutants (although there are others of another nature, such as androids or endowed with cosmic powers), who oppose the reign of the Sphinx since they considered that his race was discriminated against. The Front was liberated by Magneto, who had several lieutenants, as was the case with Wolverine. Soon the mutant cause gained followers, especially among the members of the Caucasian race who also believed themselves to be discriminated against. The activities of the Mutant Liberation Front are not known but they earned the hatred of Sphinx that put their SHIELD agents and their main group of super men, the Avengers, in their wake. One of the Front's human sympathizers was Nick Fury, who died in combat, another was Reed Richards, a Taylor Foundation worker who had access to data vital to security, such as the location of the force field generator that protected the Island of Maqman where the base of the Sphinx was located.; Magneto sent three of his most important operatives, Marvel Man, Cannonball and Firestar to get the information provided by Reed Richards, as well as Wolverine as possible support. However, the three mutants found themselves face to face with the Avengers who threatened to impose their number, then Wolverine made an appearance that won enough time for his companions to escape, although this cost him his life.; With the data obtained by Richards, a group of mutants entered the Maqman Island to destroy the force field generator to be able to throw all their forces against Sphinx. The mutants met the Avengers on their way and in the middle of the battle, one of the Avengers, Nova, turned against his companions and supported the mutants by giving them enough time to destroy the field. Thus, the Mutant Liberation Front launched all its forces against the Sphinx in a global attack that included attacks on the Sphinx itself and its empire. Sphinx used its enormous power to decimate the mutants who faced their sure extinction but had to withdraw to face some mutants that had sneaked into its base and after hard fight, forced to return this world to normal.

"Evil" Morph was often a part-time member of the Nasty Boys, but Sinister eventually lost control of him.; Later, the Nasty Boys teamed with the Savage Land Mutates. They proved to be quite imposing to the X-Men whom Sinister had rendered powerless using a machine. The X-Men eventually regained their powers, freed Morph from Sinister completely, and defeated Sinister and the Boys.; After leaving the Savage Land, the Boys reappeared with Sinister to aid a future version of Apocalypse rewrite reality. Vertigo apparently accompanied them and was made into a member.

Ultimately, Xavier would be murdered by the MLF's primary enemy Cable. In the wake of Xavier's death the Mutant Liberation Front would ramp up it's acts of terror against humanity.; Their first act following Xavier's death would be to attack the Fantastic Four. Stryfe, Fourarm, Reaper, Strobe, Tempo, Thumbelina would be involved in this battle, the outcome of which is unknown. They would next turn their attention on attacking the X-Men. X-Men members who fell at their hands that have been reported were Banshee and Meggan. They would then take the battle directly to the X-Mansion. There MLF members involved in this attack would be Fourarm, Reaper, Wildside, Dragoness, Sumo and Thumelina would be involved in the strike. After roughing the group up, they would be teleported away by Zero for another mission, leaving the X-Men vulnerable to an attack by the Fenris, Savage Land Mutates and the Hellfire Club.; When Magneto would seek to take over America, he would meet with various mutants to get them to unite into a single army. He would approach Stryfe, who would not agree and Magneto would kill him. Of the MLF members joining Magneto's cause would be Kamikaze, Wildside, Reaper, Fourarm, and Strobe. At least these members were involved in Magneto's assault on Washington D.C. and were present when Magneto would inadvertently detonate a nuclear warhead inside a Sentinel killing them all. The ultimate fate of Zero, Thumbelina, Dragoness, Sumo, and Tempo remain unrevealed.

"Estranged" from their souls, the Kree began to forget who they were, losing all sense of self and becoming known as the Nameless. The Nameless found that the only way to remember who they once were was to inflicting pain on themselves, and soon developed self-inflicting pain rituals to regain their memories, despite being temporary.; As countless years went on, a young Kree boy named Zak-Del found himself in the Exoteric Latitude after escaping from a Kree squad who had killed his family. The Nameless grabbed hold of him and stabbed the poor boy in the chest to allow the Exolon to infect him and turn Zak-Del into one of them. However, Zak-Del, unlike the other Nameless held onto his memories of his parents' murder and after growing to become a man decided to leave the Exoteric Latitude to exact revenge. He confronted the Nameless' leader and killed him, stealing his Polymorphic Weapon and ship to return to the Kree Empire and find his family's murderer.

They were all created via the Death Stone.; After luring the Summoner and the Illuminati into a trap in the Death Realm, Thanos ordered the Nameless to collect all the Infinity Stones for him. The Summoner and his allies eventually escaped from the Death Realm, and together ended the threat of Thanos once and for all. Defeated, the Nameless escaped, prompting Guillotine to hunt them across the Battlerealm in the hopes of eliminating them.; The Collector's clone isolated itself alongside the other "odd" Champions of the Abyss. The Grandmaster's clone was hidden away by the Collector in the Necropolis alongside his other failed experiments.; A select few of the Nameless were later granted with malicious will by a different Thanos and elevated to become the Deathless.

While Frost searched through Magneto's mind for Xavier, Squadron Supreme members Hyperion and Power Princess tracked the Mutant Force to Island M using Frost as a tracking beacon. Frost was eventually forced to join the Mutant Force in fighting the Squadron Supreme, leaving Magneto to free Xavier by himself. Magneto realized too late that it wasn't Xavier that was in his mind but Xavier's evil twin sister Cassandra Nova. Now free, Nova took over Magneto's body and used her power to teleport the Squadron Supreme away.; The team were eventually banished to the Negative Zone by Hyperion.

+History:
+===Origin===; Mister Sinister employed the powerful Creation Engines to harness cosmic energy from the Dreaming Celestial, channeling this force to generate numerous clones of himself. These clones were designed to think and act in unison, effectively creating a formidable army under the control of the original Mister Sinister, often referred to as Sinister Prime.; ===Sinister London===; The clones, under the command of Sinister Prime, conquered a significant portion of Subterranea beneath Anchorage, Alaska. In the process, they eradicated the native Moloids and established Sinister London, a city intended to showcase the perfection and superiority of this new cloned species. The city became a symbol of Mister Sinister's vision for a society that embodied his ideals.; ===Biology===; One distinctive feature of the Sinister Clones is their all-male composition. Mister Sinister, using the Creation Engine, manipulated the genetic makeup to eliminate the need for females within the clone society. Sinister Prime himself expressed a pragmatic perspective, stating that while he had nothing against women, they held no purpose in his vision. The creation engines were programmed to handle reproduction exclusively through male clones. Sinister Prime further dictated that the male clones would undertake tasks traditionally assigned to both genders. Using the Creation Engines, Mister Sinister ensured that the clones could perform all necessary functions without the involvement of females. In case of any malfunctions in the engines, a contingency plan was in place - half of the population would temporarily transition to a female form to maintain reproduction. Once the engines were fully repaired, the clones would revert to their original male forms.; Some Sinister Clones lived on Mister Sinister's island of Bar Sinister.

+History:
+===Avengers: Disassembled===; In the wake of personal tragedy regarding the heartbreaking loss her twin children, Scarlet Witch's grip on her volatile reality-warping powers unraveled. She unleashed a catastrophic surge of chaos that devastated her own teammates, the Avengers. Some perished, others were left irreparably scarred, and the Avengers Mansion was obliterated in the resulting maelstrom. Amid the ruins of their very existence, the Avengers lamented their losses, which also included the destruction of the realm of Asgard and the death of the mighty Thor. The shattered Mansion was transformed into a solemn memorial, a grim testament of their interrupted history. Tony Stark, the invincible Iron Man and financial pillar of the team, announced he could no longer bankroll their operations. With their resources depleted, their numbers diminished, and their spirit broken, the Avengers had no choice but to disband. Thus came the end of an era: Earth's mightiest heroes disassembled.; ===New Avengers, Assemble!===; A new group of Avengers assembled by chance during a breakout at the Raft, an island high-security facility designed to detain the world's most dangerous super-criminals. The incident was set in motion during a calculated power outage engineered by the villain Electro. During the blackout, private bodyguard Luke Cage was on-site escorting attorneys Foggy Nelson and Matthew Murdock, secretly Daredevil, on a visit to the enigmatic and omnipotent Sentry, who had been imprisoned by his own demand. Accompanying them was the original Spider-Woman, who served as the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent overseeing the Raft. As chaos erupted, reinforcements came in the form of the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, the star-spangled hero Captain America, and the invincible Iron Man, who joined forces with the other heroes to help restore order. Unbeknownst to those involved, Spider-Woman was in fact the alien Skrull Queen, an imposter who had infiltrated Earth as part of an elaborate plan of invading the planet. The Skrulls, who had deeply compromised S.H.I.E.L.D. and many other organizations, had actually orchestrated the prison break.; Believing the assembling of heroes was a fateful sign more than a fortunate coincidence, Captain America convinced Iron Man to form a new team of Avengers. Free from the government's bureaucratic involvement and the financial burdens that had plagued their predecessors, this new incarnation would exist solely to take on threats too great for any single hero to face alone, starting with recapturing the forty-two inmates of the Raft who had managed to escape into the world. Captain America reached out to the heroes present at the Raft riot to invite them to the New Avengers. Worn down by a career of failures, Spider-Man accepted the offer. Grounded by a sense of duty, Luke Cage joined in hopes of making his loved ones proud. On the other hand, Daredevil declined, fearing that his convoluted life would compromise the team. Having been displaced from her role within S.H.I.E.L.D., Spider-Woman accepted ase well. The Sentry had vanished without a trace. The newly formed Avengers established their base in Stark Tower, a skyscraper owned by Iron Man at the heart of Manhattan. The loyal butler Jarvis resumed his role as caretaker of the team's penthouse headquarters. In a sinister parallel to Spider-Woman, Jarvis had also been replaced by a Skrull infiltrator, further deepening the deception seeded within the group.; The team was put into contact with the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Commander Maria Hill, who had assumed the position following Colonel Nick Fury's unsanctioned invasion of Latveria -- a covert mission that had involved several of the Avengers-to-be. Unlike her predecessor, Hill held little enthusiasm for a non-government-sanctioned Avengers unit, but Captain America asserted his authority by invoking his Full Champion License, which allowed him to assemble any team hfor any mission he deemed necessary. With Spider-Man identifying Electro as the perpetrator of the breakout, the Avengers apprehended him and followed the trail of his intended target, the mutated Sauron, to the inhospitable Savage Land. Wolverine, the feral X-Man, had arrived in the area following a tip from the Scorcher and joined the investigation. Wolverine was controversially added to the team roster in case a last and lethal force was required by the Avengers. In the dense jungles, the team confronted both the Savage Land Mutates associated with Sauron and S.H.I.E.L.D. rogue operatives led by Yelena Belova, the Black Widow. Having uncovered a hidden Vibranium mining operation manned by enslaved laborers, the Avengers witnessed a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier obliterate the area with cruise missiles, under Hill's orders, which escalated the tensions between them and the spy agency. In addition to this, by considering that several of the escaped convicts they hunted had been listed as deceased, the Avengers concluded that S.H.I.E.L.D. might have gone backsliding without the watchful eye of the recently deposed Fury and should not be trusted.; In between intercepting escaped criminals, among them the destructive Wrecker, the Avengers turned their attention to the potentially perilous figure of the Sentry. More specifically, Tony Stark shared detailed information with the Illuminati, a secretive cabal of leaders within the super-hero community that manipulated events to protect the planet. As such, the Avengers gained influential allies in their mission, such as the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, the Inhuman Royal Family, the Sorcerer Supreme Doctor Strange and the King of Atlantis Namor. Once regarded as a golden hero, the Sentry had his existence erased from the memories of those who had known him. Internally, he waged a battle with his dark alter-ego, the Void, who sabotaged his every heroic act. With help of the superhero community, the Sentry reclaimed his place in the world and joined the Avengers. Although he agreed to assist the team when he could, his mental instability often rendered unreliable in the field. As a peculiar consequence, the Sentry's Watchtower was restored over the top of Stark Tower, a surreal confirmation of Captain America's suggestion that the team had been assembled by fate.; One of the Raft's former prisoners was the warrior swordsman known as the Silver Samurai, an influential member of Clan Yashida. Intelligence reports indicated that he returned to Japan for a potential alliance involving the Hand and Madame Hydra's forces. With Wolverine unavailable, the Avengers lacked an expert familiar with the clandestine criminal underworld they were about to enter. Although Daredevil turned down a request from Captain America to help, he recommended the mysterious Ronin in his place for being an agent experienced with the Hand affairs. In fact, Ronin was the deaf martial artist known as Echo. Taking on the assignment, she traced Madame Hydra, but was ultimately chased down by the Hand's undead ninjas. The Avengers engaged in a fierce battle, during which Spider-Woman confronted Madame Hydra in secrecy to discuss her cryptic allegiance to Hydra. The Silver Samurai claimed he had been abducted by S.H.I.E.L.D. to the Raft unjustly, adding another layer of mystery surrounding the prison break. The Avengers departed with Madame Hydra captive, but Spider-Woman furtively staged the prisoner's escape while en route. When confronted by her teammates over the baffling betrayal, she revealed her true role as a triple agent, hidden inside Hydra and the Avengers as an agent covertly guided by Nick Fury.; After operating in the shadows for some missions, the Avengers prepared to officially reintroduce themselves to the world. In a press conference covered by the Daily Bugle, editor-in-chief J. Jonah Jameson vocally expressed his criticism of super-heroes, particularly Spider-Man. He wasted no time in launching a tirade against the new roster of the Avengers, denouncing and highlighting unsavory aspects of their stories. Amid this controversy, the team counted with direct support from the former Avenger Ms. Marvel. At the same time, the Avengers assisted Luke Cage when his partner, the private investigator Jessica Jones went into labor by taking her to Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum, where the baby girl was delivered. Next, they celebrated Cage and Jones' wedding. However, the ceremony was violently interrupted by vengeful Yelena Belova, who had been transformed by A.I.M. into a Super-Adaptoid as part of Hydra's schemes. The Avengers assembled to confronted the enhanced assassin. In the end, Belova was eliminated by her own handlers, who chose to sacrifice her rather than risk exposing their larger conspiracy. The Avengers were finally free to commemorate the union of two of their own in peace.; In between the events that consolidated the team, the Avengers faced diverse challenges. They battled with a team of four Avengers doppelgängers created by a faction of Hydra which was put down after Spider-Man infiltrated their ranks. The team also supervised the emergence of a group of Young Avengers, who had adopted tribute mantles honoring the champions they admired. Though initially disapproving their activities, the Avengers reevaluated their stance after fighting joining forces with them to fend off aKree and Skrull incursion. Representing their blessing, the Avengers permitted the Young Avengers to restore the grounds of the Avengers Mansion to serve as a memorial site. Another encounter with teenage vigilantes unfolded when Cloak, wrongly accused of harming his partner Dagger, turned to the orphans known as the Runaways to clear his name. The Avengers hunted Cloak down only to clash with the band of youngsters in the a confrontation marked by miscommunication. The Runaways eluded any captures and exposed Cloak's imposter. A major assault happened after the Thunderbolts were assigned by the Commission on Superhuman Activities to target the Avengers Tower, a plan envisioned by Henry P. Gyrich, Carol Danvers, and Hank Pym. The Thunderbolts tricked the Avengers into leaving the building and defeated them. It was then revealed that Baron Zemo was the actual mastermind behind the scenes, working with the Commission to monitor super-heroes, including the Avengers.; ===House of M===; The fate of the Scarlet Witch was still an unresolved crisis. She was isolated in the ruins of Genosha under the care of Professor Xavier and Doctor Strange, and any possibility of recovery seemed impossible. In light of that, Xavier contacted both the Avengers and his X-Men to discuss a course of action. The first step was to reason with the Scarlet Witch directly on Genosha, but, upon arriving, the heroes were ensnared in a chaotic trap. Tapping into their deepest wishes using Xavier's telepathy, the Scarlet Witch crafted an alternate reality built from their dreams. In the fabricated world, mutants were a ruling caste. Yet, the Avenger and X-Man Wolverine had his greatest wish of accessing all of his memories granted and could see through the illusion. The disturbed Wolverine was met by Cage, who had been approached by Layla Miller, another mutant who had recollection of the truth and could awaken others. Wolverine and Cage embarked on a mission to restore the memories of the Avengers and the X-Men to dissipate the Scarlet Witch's doing. Having reassembled the Avengers, they launched an assult on Genosha alongside the X-Men. In a climactic moment, the distressed Scarlet Witch, overwhelmed by desperation, restored reality. As the world was restored, the majority of the mutant population found themselves depowered.; The mutant energy released by the Scarlet Witch's spell catastrophically detonated in Alaska. S.H.I.E.L.D. deployed Canada's premier team Alpha Flight to assess the phenomenon, resulting in their extermination. With no alternatives, Director Maria Hill reluctantly contacted the Avengers for aid. During this incident, the Avengers focused on community-level outreach under Luke Cage's suggestion, for he believed the group should connect with the people they protected. As the omnipotent entity arrived in Cleveland, the Avengers called in Ms. Marvel for reinforcement; the intercepted creature was identified as the Collective in a fight with destructive consequences. Through the Vision's database, S.H.I.E.L.D. discovered that the Collective was constituted by the combined signatures of the mutants who had got depowered. Hill took the opportuniy to investigate the truth behind the crisis, psychically extracting the information from Spider-Man. Arriving on Genosha, the Collective searched for Magneto. Being followed by the Avengers, he had his energies entrapped and dispersed into the sun with the covert intervention of the agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. Quake. In the aftermath, Magneto went missing, but the Collective no longer posed a threat.; ===Civil War===; Amidst tensions surrounding unchecked super-human activity, the congress proposed a Superhuman Registration Act to regulate the activity of costumed heroes in the country. Foreseeing a crisis, Iron Man decided to endorse the proposition. The act was enacted after a disaster protagonized by the junior heroes and reality show stars New Warriors had hundreds of victims in Stamford, Connecticut. Iron Man, alongside figures such as Reed Richars and Hank Pym supported registration, forcing vigilantes to reveal their secret identities and receive training in law enforcement. Captain America vehemently opposed the emerging law on the grounds that it violated civil liberties. The debate evolved into a superhero Civil War, forcing every hero to choose sides. The schism shattered the Avengers, Captain America formed a band of renegades, the Secret Avengers, who evaded S.H.I.E.L.D.'s squadron of cape killers, while Iron Man recruited subjects for the Initiative, a federal program meant to train and deploy superhumans across every state.; Luke Cage and Spider-Woman rejected the act and joined the underground resistance led by Captain America. On the opposing side, Ms. Marvel and the Sentry supported Iron Man and S.H.I.E.L.D.. Spider-Man initially supported registration, but defected after witnessing ethical compromises within the system. The X-Men, including Wolverine, remained neutral. The Civil War intensified, until culminating with Captain America surrendering after a huge battle in Times Square, New York, after he realized that superheroes were causing the very horror they were supposed to protect innocents from. While in custody, Captain America was assassinated when entering a federal courthouse, as part of a plot orchestrated by his longtime foe, the Red Skull. Iron Man lamented the death of his rival and dear friend Captain America. The outlaw Avengers went underground without Captain America, while Iron Man formed a new team of Mighty Avengers as a government-sanctioned unit of registered heroes who operated under the Initiative.; ===Outlawed===; In the aftermath of Civil War, the New Avengers found asylum with Doctor Strange in his mystically protected and unreachable Sanctum Sanctorum. Under Cage's leadership, the fugitives Spider-Woman, Spider-Man, and Wolverine were joined by Iron Fist, who had supported Captain America during the crisis. Spider-Woman had been informed by Ms. Marvel that Captain America was, in fact, alive and kept in the Raft, which was confirmed by Strange. The Avengers raided the Raft only to immediately realize it was a trap set by Iron Man, who had his own Avengers ambush them with power-dampening technology. Doctor Strange prevented a confrontation by teleporting his allies away. Despite Iron Man attempting to capture them using the magic abilities of Brother Voodoo, he failed. Before departing, he ultimately led the outlaw Avengers question their purpose as a resistance after the war.; Iron Fist received a call for help from Echo, as well as her Ronin suit and gadgets, since she had once again clashed with the Hand, now led by the vile Elektra. As the Avengers prepared to rescue their ally from being corrupted by the assassins, an old-time member of the Avengers, Clint Barton, the marksman Hawkeye, visited Sanctum Sanctorum. He was invited to join the team, as an opposer of Iron Man, but refused to reassume his identity of the archer Hawkeye. As such, he adopted the mantle of Ronin. The Avengers rescued Echo and sought refuge at Silver Samurai's palace. However, they were followed by Elektra and her army of assassin ninjas, sparking a violent conflict. The brainwashed Echo mortally wounded Doctor Strange amidst battle. With help from his disciple Wong, Strange escaped death and exorcized Echo. Seeking vengeance, she slew Elektra. Oddly enough, the Hand retreated and the the Avengers watched Elektra revert to her true form, a Skrull impersonator. This proved to be the first evidence of the impending Skrull invasion Earth faced, Spider-Woman retained her cover as paranoia set in, since the Avengers believed anyone could be an undercover infiltrator. On their way back to New York City, Iron Fist's plane was affected by Ultron's attack to Earth and crashed. Spider-Woman managed to escape unscathed and betrayed the team by taking the Skrull corpse to Iron Man.; Doctor Strange was able to confirm all Avengers and their associates in Sanctum Sanctorum were not shapeshifters, strengthening the trust within the group. Parallel to this, Wolverine learned about the emergence of the Hood in the criminal underworld, as he took advantage of the constant conflicts between heroes to gain influence and assemble a legion of super villains, the Hood's Gang. Worried about the Hood making a move against Iron Man and his Avengers, the group decided to take action. However, the team was caught in a symbiote infection in Manhattan, with many Avengers, from both active rosters, being bonded with alien monsters. Due to his impenetrable skin, Cage was clean and joined forces with Iron Man's Avengers to revert the situation. After the alien parasites were neutralized, both Avengers teams called a temporary truce to help afflicted civilians, which allowed the outlaw Avengers to retreat.; Tracking the Hood's Gang down, the Avengers managed to beat them into submission in an illusory setting cast by Doctor Strange that summoned an apparent army of heroes. The Hood ran away in the middle of the fight, and S.H.I.E.L.D. arrested most of his Gang. He broke them all out and elaborated a revenge attack against the Avengers. Using his magical abilities, the Hood easily broke through the defenses of Sanctum Sanctorum. The Avengers were severely beaten, and Doctor Strange was murdered. Using dark magic, he revived himself and knocked all villains out, which cost him his position as Sorcerer Supreme and forced him to leave the team. The commotion alerted S.H.I.E.L.D., but Ms. Marvel ultimately chose to cover her old allies' retreat. As a consequence of the disastrous attack, Jessica Jones sought asylum in the Avengers Tower with her infant child, abandoning her husband Cage and his Avengers. Iron Fist relocated the Avengers to one of his corporation's apartments that was once occupied by the Leader.; ===Skrull Invasion===; The Skrull invasion to take over Earth finally came to a boiling point when a Skrull ship landed in the Savage Land. Spider-Woman tipped the rebel Avengers about the situation and they stole a Quinjet the official Avengers team was about to use. Upon reaching their destination, both Avengers teams found the Mutates' citadel in ruins. The Skrulls corrupted Iron Man's technology all over the globe with a virus through his armor's systems, not only were Iron Man and the Avengers affected, but S.H.I.E.L.D., the Initiative and many others. The landed spaceship opened, revealing a group of many costumed adventurers claiming to have escaped Skrull captivity, including Captain America, the Scarlet Witch, the Vision, and Ronin's ex-wife Mockingbird. Confused, the Avengers were not sure who was a shapeshifter and who was legit. The Avengers cautiously recollected their team in the chaotic situation, with Ronin vouching for Mockingbird. Meanwhile, Manhattan was invaded by thousands of Super-Skrull soldiers. Spider-Woman reached out to Iron Man, who recovered from the infection in his systems. She played with his mind, revealing to be Queen Veranke, the liege of the Skrulls and mastermind behind the infiltration and invasion of Earth. The Avengers put aside their differences and join forces against the common enemy, being assisted by Ka-Zar and Shanna, the She-Devil.; The veil of uncertainty ended when Reed Richards unleashed a device that could reveal the Skrulls' true nature. Mockingbird was exposed as an alien and murdered alongside the other imposters. In the climactic battle against the Skrulls, the Avengers fought alongside a slew of comrades, most prominently Thor, the new Captain America, Nick Fury and his Secret Warriors, the Thunderbolts, Noh-Varr, and even the Hood's Gang. As a last resort, the Wasp was transformed into a giant living bomb by the Skrulls, forcing Thor to end her life to prevent a detonation. On a happy note, on the other hand, the real heroes replaced by the Skrulls were found to be alive and well, including Spider-Woman and Mockingbird. During the final stand, the director of the Thunderbolts, the unscrupulous Norman Osborn, who used to be the villain Green Goblin, killed the escaping Veranke. Using his technology from OsCorp, Osborn was not affected by the corruption of Iron Man's Starktech. S.H.I.E.L.D. was decommissioned and replaced by H.A.M.M.E.R., with Osborn as its head in charge of the Initiative. The Avengers remained outlaws. However, instead of old friends, they were now opposed by enemies. A dark reign descended upon Earth's Mightiest Heroes.; ===Dark Reign===; In the aftermath of the Secret Invasion, with Norman Osborn officially in charge of Earth's superhumans, the Avengers found out Luke Cage and Jessica Jones' baby had been kidnapped by the Skrull who had posed as Jarvis. The Avengers reassembled themselves in Captain America's Apartment, now in possession of his successor, Bucky Barnes, the new Captain America. Barton was accompanied by his ex-wife, the resurgent Mockingbird, while Echo disappeared without notice. The face of the Skrull invasion, the real Spider-Woman was also offered asylum. In desperation, Cage and Jones, assisted by Ms. Marvel, reached out to the Avengers and the Fantastic Four for the sake of their child, with no avail. Seeing no alternative, Cage contacted Osborn for help. Using his vast resources, Osborn easily tracked and assassinated the Skrull, bringing the baby back to safety. However, Cage betrayed Osborn and escaped Avengers Tower, returning to his outlawed group of renegade Avengers.; In charge of the official Avengers' team, Osborn reformulated its roster, revamping many super-villains with the legacy mantle of classic Avengers. His dark iteration of Avengers, which counted with the mentally unbalanced Sentry in it, was received with disgust by its predecessors. Spider-Woman was sent to Osborn in another attempt to trick him, in an attempt to ambush his Avengers with the power-dampening technology at the abandoned Hellfire Club Mansion. Osborn sent the Hood's Gang instead, since he had forged a partnership with the Hood. Severely outnumbered and having the power dampener immediately destroyed, the Avengers were easily subdued by the Hood and his syndicate of villains, being forced to retreat. Clint Barton was profoundly offended by what Osborn had done with the reputation of the Avengers and publicly denounced him on live TV. Despite their differences, the two opposing Avengers teams joined forces, being guided by Thor, to protect the world from a frigid nightmare caused by the frost giant Ymir, who got defeated by the Twilight Sword. After victory, Thor did not allow Osobrn to tackle the outlawed Avengers. Back to hiding, the team discussed their new directions, with Barton being appointed as leader with Ms. Marvel as second-in-command. Around this time, Iron Fist distanced himself from the group to deal with his own adventures.; The group was surprised by Doctor Strange, who happened upon their hideout seeking help. No longer the Sorcerer Supreme, Strange searched for his substitute, with the Hood being on his track in a hunt for the vacant position. The Avengers immediately offered help in opposing the Hood, who weirdly operated alone. In a stolen Quinjet, the team followed the path of chaos to New Orleans, where they were attacked by Madame Masque, the only partner the Hood had. In the commotion, the Hood demonstrated signs of demonic corruption, while Brother Voodoo emerged as the new Sorcerer Supreme. Strange and Voodoo were able to reveal the demon who had possessed the Hood as Dormammu and, with the Avengers' and Daimon Hellstrom's assistance, exorcized him.; Abandoned by its leader, the Hood's Gang realized they had been working as Osborn's mercenaries without their consent. Wishing to get Osborn's attention, they caused trouble in the city, alerting the Avengers instead. Having reverse-engineered the power-dampening technology, the Hood's Gang incapacitated the Avengers. As a regular human with no special abilities, Mockingbird was unaffected and resisted the villains. Simultaneously, Osborn arrived with his Avengers on the scene and made a deal with the Hood's Gang to kill the Avengers. Piloting their Quinjet, Mockingbird was able to retrieve her teammates and flee. However, Luke Cage underwent cardiac arrest due to the effects of the dampener and was taken by the Avengers to the Night Nurse's clinic. Osborn was able to arrest him in it, but was legally forced to provide him with medical treatment. The Avengers assembled a legion of friends of Cage to break him out of Avengers Tower and Osborn's clutches. While the Avengers attacked the Initiative installations in Camp Hammond, their friends raided Avengers Tower to rescue Cage. Osborn was not unprepared, having installed a microscopic bomb on Cage's heart during surgery. With Hank Pym's assistance, the device was removed and it detonated one of Osborn's luxurious houses after the Avengers went into hiding again.; ===Siege of Asgard===; Going against the other Avengers, Clint Barton ultimately decided to assassinate Osborn as the only viable solution he could fathom. As a one-man army, Barton infiltrated Avengers Tower. Despite successfully knocking most of Osborn's Avengers out, he was ultimately defeated and incarcerated. As Cage recovered from his condition, the Avengers assembled to rescue Barton. Osborn was able to learn about their hideout, but found the place evacuated, for the Avengers had foreseen the attack. This distracted the villainous Avengers. In the mission, which involved retrieving Barton from a Helicarrier, Jessica Jones reassumed her heroic identity to assist her allies. In one of Nick Fury's secret bases, the Avengers were met by a resurrected Steve Rogers, the original Captain America. One of Osborn's associates, the God of Mischief Loki, had been manipulation many of the recent crises involving the different teams of Avengers. He re-empowered the Hood using the Norn Stones, a source that extended to the entire Hood's Gang, that now operated in a legit way under Osborn's Initiative. The Avengers resisted multiple murder attempts from different members of the Hood's Gang. The Avengers not only joined forces with Rogers, but also with Nick Fury and his Secret Warriors.; Loki's ultimate move in his machinations involving Osborn was to convince him about the danger of having the magical realm of Asgard on Earth. He claimed that this was a threat to Osborn's influence and suggested that a disaster should be crafted to justify a siege to the golden city. Together, Loki and Osborn managed to trick Volstagg of the Warriors Three into fighting the U-Foes in a stadium full of people, who became casualties. This gave Osborn reason to move against Asgard, mobilizing all of the forces under his command such as the Avengers, H.A.M.M.E.R., the Thunderbolts, the Initiative, and the Hood's Gang. The mighty Thor defended his home, but was put down by Osborn. Deciding Osborn should be stopped, Steve Rogers reassembled the Avengers to join the war, being backed by other parties, such as Maria Hill, Nick Fury's Secret Warriors the Young Avengers, and Tony Stark.; After Osborn was taken down by the Avengers, he ordered the Sentry to destroy Asgard, leaving nothing but rubble. Regaining advantage, Osborn had Loki teleport the Hood and his Gang empowered by the Norn Stones to oppose the Avengers. However, the Sentry proved to be an uncontrollable force. In regret, Loki realized that he had gone too far and used the Norn Stones to empower the heroes fighting on the side of Asgard. Noticing the trickery, the Sentry killed Loki to reverse the process. As a last resource, Tony Stark managed to take control of the H.A.M.M.E.R. Helicarrier to drop it on the Sentry which made him revert to his human form. Powerless, the Sentry was mercy-killed by Thor, who disposed of his remains in the Sun.; During the final stand against Osborn, the Hood and Madame Masque were able to vanish. In desperation to get the Hood repowered, Madame Masque sought help in Los Angeles with her father, Count Nefaria, an all-powerful crimemaster and old nemesis of the classic Avengers. In order to track down the Hood, the formerly outlawed Avengers blackmailed his cousin and associate, John King, being able to track down his location. The Avengers brutally assaulted Count Nefaria to incapacitate him. Emerging victorious, they were able to put all three villains into custody. In the aftermath of the siege, the Registration Act was decommissioned and H.A.M.M.E.R. was dissolved. Steve Rogers stepped in as head of security and the responsible for the superhuman community and the Avengers.; ===Heroic Age===; With the return of the Avengers under Steve Rogers' supervision, Cage was not comfortable with operating in this condition after such a long time hiding from justice. As an alternative, Rogers provided Cage free jurisdiction to assemble his own team of New Avengers to operate in his terms. Moreover, Tony Stark ceded the reformed Avengers Mansion to serve as their headquarters. Rogers' only condition was having Victoria Hand, Norman Osborn's former scond in command, to act as a liaison, because he felt she could provide an important insight to the team. With Iron Fist and Jessica Jones at his side, Cage gathered most of his former allies in the team, with the new addition of the Thing from the Fantastic Four.; The New Avengers faced their baptism of fire when the Eye of Agamotto happened upon and possessed Cage, prompting him to be sought by Doctor Strange and Daimon Hellstrom, who had also been corrupted by demonic forces. While Doctor Strange regained control, Iron Fist took the Eye of Agamotto and got banished to another plane after the intervention of the Sorcerer Supreme, Doctor Voodoo. This unleashed a rupture in reality, causing Earth to be vulnerable to a hellish invasion. After a convoluted series of disasters, the New Avengers realized the spirit of Agamotto himself reclaimed the item. The Avengers challenged Agamotto for a mystic duel, sending a mystically empowered Wolverine as their warrior. Doctor Voodoo intervened and sacrificed his life to ensure the defeat of a power-hungry Agamotto. Reality was protected and the Avengers returned to the Mansion, which was reformed by Damage Control. Moreover, Strange joined the team and invited his associate Wong to serve as a housekeeper, while Cage and Jones hired the unbeatable Squirrel Girl to be their daughter's nanny.; ===New H.A.M.M.E.R.===; The extremist Superia gathered former agents of H.A.M.M.E.R. in preparation for resurgence. Hand had intelligence about her activities and dispatched the New Avengers to investigate. In the ensuing conflict, Mockingbird was mortally wounded by gunshot. As some of the Avengers tended to their injured ally, Superia was able to outpower them and escape. The incident led the New Avengers to suspect Victoria Hand could still be loyal to H.A.M.M.E.R., but she proved her allegiances to the Avengers when exposing Superia's whereabouts after being contacted. Superia was in possession of a mixture of the Super-Soldier Serum and the Infinity Formula that Fury had contact with in the late 1950s. The substance, although relatively unknown, was administered to save Mockingbird's life. Meanwhile, the incarcerated Superia demonstrated her plan had been influence H.A.M.M.E.R. from jail all along.; When the Asgardian god of fear, the deadly Serpent, resurfaced with the help of the Red Skull's daughter Sin, a group of super humans was empowered by magical hammers similar to Mjolnir. As the Worthy, they spread fear around the world to venerate their master in his plans of becoming the All-Father of Asgard. Part of Sin's attack involved raiding America with an army of Nazi soldiers, her own Blitzkrieg. A corrupted Thing caused the Avengers Tower to fall in a deadly combat against the Red Hulk. The Avengers Mansion was also attacked by Sin's forces. As Squirrel-Girl struggled to keep her protégée safe, Daredevil assisted her in fending off the illegitimate soldiers. Out of gratitude, Cage and Jones invited him to join the Avengers, which he accepted. Moreover, as one of the Serpent's generals, Sin stormed Washington, D.C., with a Nazi army, causing Captain America's apparent death, which prompted Steve Rogers to step back as the star-spangled soldier. All over the globe, the Avengers kept resisting the destructive Worthy. Wielding Uru weapons manufactured by Iron Man in the furnaces of Nidavellir, many Avengers were empowered as the Mighty to oppose the Serpent's army. Thor bravely slayed the Serpent at the ultimate cost of his own life. The war-torn Avengers had a hard work to rebuild the world ahead of themselves but were able to do it without fear.; Hand had the New Avengers supervise the transition of Norman Osborn from the Raft to another prison. The transference failed, as Osborn was freed alongside Superia by corrupted Raft officers and returned as the head of a revived H.A.M.M.E.R., which now counted with forces from A.I.M., Hydra, and the Hand. The paranoic Osborn also reformed his version of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, an iteration of the New Dark Avengers. At Stark Resilient laboratories at Paramus, New Jersey, the New Avengers joined Iron Man to fight a new version of Ultimo, controlled by H.A.M.M.E.R., that was trying to steal Iron Man's armor. Though the giant robot fell, a smaller robot attacked Wolverine, obtained a blood sample and escaped. Back to Avengers Mansion, the New Avengers founded it surrounded by protesters who rebelled against them, having a dispiriting effect on the team. As Victoria Hand dispatched the team to deal with Atlantean terrorists in Miami, they received wrong coordinates. By the time the New Avengers lately arrived at the correct place, Osborn and his New Dark Avengers had already solved the problem in a glorious display.; The two Avengers teams battled each other. However, the heroic Avengers were caught unprepared, being also rejected by civilians who blamed them for the crisis. Doctor Strange aborted the mission and teleported the team away, only to be surprised by the sudden appearance of Ragnarok, the cyborg clone of Thor who had been rebuilt by A.I.M. The artificial creature was destroyed by the Avengers after a difficult fight. However, when returning to their base they experienced a bitter victory, as S.W.A.T. wished to detain them. Outnumbered by the authority forces, the New Avengers were teleported to Sanctum Sanctorum to prepare a plan. Afraid of Osborn and of the violent public opposition, Jessica Jones disappeared with no trace with her child and Squirrel-Girl, leaving Cage in turmoil. Meanwhile, Hand was exposed as a triple agent, who was in contact with Osborn under the orders of Captain America, who happened to be in Osborn's custody. Another mole within H.A.M.M.E.R. was the Dark Avenger Skaar, who betrayed his team by attacking them and freeing Captain America. The New Avengers arrived on the scene and defeated all the New Dark Avengers. Osborn succumbed to his own greed for power.; ===New Avengers: Disassembled===; After the war between the Avengers and the X-Men, Luke Cage decided to leave the team in order to raise his daughter in peace, which incited the New Avengers to disassemble. However, the defunct team became a target of the spirit of Daniel Drumm, who had vowed revenge for the death of his brother, Doctor Voodoo. Having possessed the body of Victoria Hand, he attacked magicians to empower himself. This attracted the attentions of authorities, who investigated Avengers Mansion. Daniel Drumm assassinated Hand and an FBI agent to bring trouble to the Avengers, as S.H.I.E.L.D. determined Doctor Strange was the murderer. In extreme confusion, the other Avengers team arrived on the scene. Drumm took the opportunity to randomly possess different members of both groups to spark a battle. To solve the situation, Doctor Strange called upon a challenge between sorcerers. Strange battled all the Avengers by himself, resisting a plethora of different attacks. Knowing his friends faced danger, Cage decided to return to Avengers Mansion in his last act as an Avenger. Drumm possessed his body only to find himself permanently trapped, being unable to corrupt others. This enabled Doctor Strange to perform an exorcism.; As a result, Strange's former mentor, the Ancient One, appeared in the battlefield and bestowed upon his disciple the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme again due to his valiant efforts in protecting the dimension without it being his duty anymore. In the aftermath of the battle, the Avengers honored the memory of Victoria Hand and remembered their moments together. Cage returned the possession of Avengers Mansion to Tony Stark. The building became the headquarters of the mutant-centered team known as the Avengers Unity Division, some of the New Avengers became part of other Avengers teams, and Cage planned to revive the Heroes for Hire.

+Full name: Neo-Knights
+First appearance: Transformers (UK) Vol 1 314
+Created by: Simon Furman; Andrew Wildman
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: A group of super-powered beings gathered by industrialist G.B. Blackrock in order to combat the menace of evil Transformers on Earth.
+Reality: Earth-120185
+Base of operations: Undisclosed location on Earth, presumably a building under ownership of Blackrock Industries
+Transportation: The Neo-Knights once used a helicopter for transportation
+Notes: Issue #68, where the Neo-Knights first appeared, was the only issue in the entire series drawn by Dwayne Turner, whose dark-shaded drawing style was noticeably different from other artists in the comic.; There was talk in the letter page of the comic of a separate comic for the Neo-Knights who would regularly appear in the mainstream Marvel Universe, but no such comic was ever made.; Circuit Breaker predates the introduction of the Neo-Knights. Unlike the other three members, and Blackrock, she does not distinguish between Autobots and Decepticons but instead treats all robots as her enemies. The other three members first appeared in the same issue as the team was formed.
+Trivia: Marvel owns the rights to the Neo-Knights characters as they were original characters that were not part of the Transformers license.; The designation of Earth-120185 is the Marvel alternate reality index for the Transformers UK comic book series, which is considered separate to the US Comic book as there are a number of deviations. However, the history of the Neo-Knights as a group, in both realities are identical, although G.B. Blackrock and Circuit Breaker have expanded personal histories on Earth-120185, as opposed to the Marvel US histories on Earth-91274.
+History:
+Since their arrival on the planet Earth, the civil war between the two factions of the Transformers race (The heroic Autobots, and the evil Decepticons), G.B. Blackrock was often the target of the Decepticons early attempts of conquest of the planet Earth. During these early years, the Decepticons had crippled his best employee: Josie Bellar, who would build a circuit mesh exo-suit which granted her many super-human abilities which she would use to get revenge on all robots under the guise of Circuit Breaker.; During this time Blackrock would form an aliance with the Autobots, providing them with reasonable fuel resources in exchange for assistance should his corporation have any trouble with the Decepticons in the future. This agreement eventually came to an end due to the Autobots distancing themselves from their human friends due to infighting within the faction, and the repair of their ship the Ark, which allowed them to travel into space once more. Blackrock was effectivly left without any sort of protection from the Autobots except for the goverment run Intelligence and Information Institute (I.I.I.) which funded the RAAT (Rapid Action Anti-Robot Team) group charged with destroying all robots (who also once employed former Blackrock employee Circuit Breaker.); After a major (and very public) snafu, RAAT and III were shut down, and so Blackrock took it upon himself to form a group of super-humans to combat the Decepticons wherever they may cause trouble on Earth. He originally recruited Katrin Vestotzky, a human with the ability to create dreams in the minds of sentient beings and Lee Gruber who could make his fists, feet and proportionate strength grow. Dubbing them Rapture and Thunderpunch, these two became the founding members of a group which would eventually be known as the Neo-Knights.; The original members first mission was to seek out Hector Dailonzo, who had the ability to channel the latient energies of the planet. He also soon became the target of both Circuit Breaker (Who sought to use him in her war against the robots who crippled her) and the rogue Decepticon, Starscream, who hoped to use a binary-bonding process to make Hector into the most powerful Powermaster engine in existance.; After a battle involving all three sides, Hector eventually accepted Blackrock's offer, and after some hesitation, he would take up the mantle of Dyanmo. After defeating Starscream, Circuit Breaker would also join the group, completing the groups membership.; When Shockwave and Starscream gathered together a small group of Decepticons and tried to kill Scorponok, the resulting civil war quickly got out of control and threatened to level New York in the process. In desperation, the president of the United States called Blackrock and asked for the assistance of his Neo-Knights, as he now called the group. Blackrock agreed.; Together, the Neo-Knights managed to injure Scorponok, but Circuit Breaker began to go berserk and attacked Optimus Prime and Nightbeat, who was knocked unconscious. Blackrock found himself unable to stop her, and the other Neo-Knights were unwilling to turn on one of their own. But when Blackrock recognized Shockwave amongst the Transformers, he called Circuit Breaker's attention to him. Seeing the opportunity to get revenge on the robot responsible for her crippling injuries, she immediately hit him with every last bit of energy she had stored in her suit. Shockwave was damaged and forced to crash-land, but was otherwise alright. Circuit Breaker fell into Thunderpunch's arms.; The Neo-Knights regrouped at the helicopter they came in on. However, the body of Nightbeat was in contact with the helicopter, so when Primus teleported the Transformers to Cybertron, the Neo-Knights were accidentally transported there as well. Despite the pleas from both Blackrock and Optimus, Primus seemed unconcerned that he had made such a mistake, and made no effort to correct it. Circuit Breaker, meanwhile, had gone into a psychosis caused by the nightmare of being on a planet populated entirely by the robots she both hated and feared.; Unicron attacked soon after, and the Neo-Knights were caught in the struggle. Thunderpunch attacked Unicron, but not surprisingly, was all but ignored. Dynamo had incredible difficultly tapping into the energies of Cybertron. Rapture found Unicron's mind to be too vast and powerful for her to control. And Circuit Breaker found herself unable to do anything.; Eventually, the Neo-Knights were able to distract Unicron long enough for Optimus to plunge into Unicron with the Matrix, thus destroying both of them. With Optimus dead, and Circuit Breaker practically in a coma, the Neo-Knights found themselves without any representation among the Autobots, and were treated for the most part as luggage. They were soon joined by Hi-Q, who had left Prime before his death, but was now convinced he was Optimus. Hi-Q managed to convince Blackrock to help him try to save Cybertron, which was apparently self-destructing.; With the Autobots all gone from the planet in pursuit of the Decepticons, the Neo-Knights aided Hi-Q in his search for the Last Autobot, supposedly a repository for a portion of Primus's essense. Dynamo did what he could to help by using his abilities to home in on that energy. They succeeded, and when they located the Last Autobot, he responded by reforming Hi-Q into a new body; that of Optimus Prime. He then healed Cybertron, thus stopping its self-destruction, and tranformed into a spacecraft which transported both Optimus and the Neo-Knights to the planet Klo.; On Klo, the Autobots were being decimated by the Decepticons. They arrived in time to help Grimlock and a small group of survivors launch a counterattack against Bludgeon's forces. The Neo-Knights, noteably, fought alongside Optimus in this encounter. Their present status is unknown, but it is assumed they were at least transported back to Earth.

+History:
+The history of the New Avengers of Earth-61112 initially mirrored that of their Earth-616 counterparts until Spider-Woman, secretly operating as an agent of S.W.O.R.D., disappeared during a mission to investigate Skrull activity. Unable to locate her, Abigail Brand sought the assistance of the Avengers and New Avengers. Although Commander Steve Rogers was initially skeptical, Beast vouched for Brand and S.W.O.R.D., while Thor urged immediate action. A rescue team consisting of Iron Man, Thor, Wolverine, Beast, Ms. Marvel, Protector, Moon Knight, and Brand tracked Spider-Woman to an Intelligencia installation, where she had been captured and interrogated about a mysterious Spaceknight. The heroes stormed the facility, defeated the Intelligencia, and freed Jessica Drew, but their victory was short-lived when Ultron hijacked the dormant Spaceknight and manifested a new body. Thor's assault on the machine triggered a catastrophic explosion, after which Iron Man realized that Ultron's return meant the inevitable fall of the world.; Months later, Ultron launched a devastating global offensive, conquering Earth and transforming it into a mechanized wasteland. The New Avengers were scattered, and many perished during the invasion. Luke Cage survived within one of Tony Stark's hidden refuges, where he joined the human resistance. Alongside She-Hulk, he infiltrated Ultron's domain in an attempt to uncover why superhumans were being gathered, discovering that Vision had become the unwilling conduit through which Ultron from the future controlled the present. Although She-Hulk sacrificed herself to ensure his escape, Cage survived even a nuclear strike thanks to his unbreakable skin and eventually reached the resistance's new base in the Savage Land, where he revealed Vision's role in Ultron's plan.

+Equipment: Avenger Four, Avenger Five
+Transportation: Avenger One, Avenger Three
+Notes: During Time Runs Out, this team of Avengers were separated into two divisions:; The New Avengers, composed of Black Widow, Cannonball, Manifold, Pod, Shang-Chi, Smasher, Spider-Woman, Validator, Zebra Kids, and Sunspot himself. They are seemingly tasked in stopping the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Avengers/Illuminati conflict and uniting the Avengers.; The Multiversal Avengers, composed of Abyss, the Ex Nihilii (including Ex Nihilo), Hyperion, Nightmask, Odinson and Starbrand, who went on a one-way trip through the Multiverse to find the cause of the incursions and multiversal decay.; "Multiversal Avengers" refers to the fact that they were sent out to explore the Multiverse. Its members originated in Earth-616, except Hyperion.
+History:
+===Origin===; After the Avengers fell under S.H.I.E.L.D. authority and Steve Rogers began his obsessive hunt for the Illuminati, numerous Avengers left the team, refusing to hunt down fellow heroes. Several of these former Avengers created a new team led by Sunspot, as an external party to the Illuminati/S.H.I.E.L.D. conflict and to focus exclusively on a countermeasure against the incursions that threatened the existence of the universe.; ===Multiversal Avengers===; Using A.I.M.'s resources, Sunspot managed to put into operation a machine capable of transporting individuals across the Multiverse, in hopes of finding the source of the decay of the Multiverse, and a group of them, the "Multiversal Avengers," embarked in said mission. Meanwhile, he also began recollecting the mechanisms put in the Earth by Ex Nihilo, self-sustenance in the form of the Children of the Sun, self-defense in the form of Pod, evolution in the form of Validator, and the power of replication, seized by Shang-Chi.; The Multiversal Avengers—Starbrand, Nightmask, Ex Nihilo, Abyss, the Ex Nihilii from the Builder War, Hyperion, and Odinson—found the base of the Black Priests, whom they believed to be enemies for destroying alternate Earths. Both sides fought each other until Doctor Strange revealed himself as the leader of the Priests and stopped the conflict. Back to his Sanctum, Stephen explained to the Avengers that the true intention of the Black Priests was save the Multiverse, even if their methods included the destruction of Earths.; Strange had convinced his fellow Black Priests the need to attack their enemies, the Ivory Kings and Rabum Alal, and he offered to help the Avengers face them. To get to the Ivory Kings, they would need to follow the Mapmakers, and to get to Rabum Alal, they would need to follow the Black Swans. The Avengers would go get one of them, while the Black Priests went after the other. However, Strange learned that Rabum Alal was also trying to save the Multiverse, so the Avengers were hunting the real enemies: the Beyonders.; The Avengers traveled across the Multiverse while navigating the map left by the Mapmakers. Each jump caused Nightmask to deage, and the final jump cost him his life. The Avengers found themselves face-to-face with a fissure in time and space. From it, two Beyonders emerged, who confirmed that the death of the Multiverse was their doing and denied Odinson's request to stop. In the ensuing battle, Abyss and the Ex Nihilii sacrificed themselves to reshape one Beyonder, and after being stabbed by the second Beyonder, Starbrand self-destructed in its face. Though momentarily victorious, the surviving Avengers, Odinson and Hyperion, found themselves against an incoming wave of countless Beyonders and faced their deaths with delight.; ===New Avengers===; As Val Richards had informed her father that the Illuminati couldn't win in their actions, he and his peers decided to set a trap to S.H.I.E.L.D. by letting them track the group in their safe-house of Cádiz, Spain.; As the Archangel Helicarriers stationed over the safe-house and War Machine Drones, Hawkeye and Captain Marvel were deployed against the Illuminati, Sunspot brought his own ship over the Helicarriers and ordered S.H.I.E.L.D. to stand down. As a response, Rogers deployed the lobotomized Hulk from an alternate dimension. Steve Rogers arrived to the battle field, where he confronted the Illuminati, and deployed the Mighty Avengers. The Mighty Avengers and the Avengers engaged the Illuminati and Sunspot's Avengers in combat until the Invisible Woman stopped the conflict. Once the Illuminati and Steve Rogers came into terms, they started working together with Sunspot's Avengers.; ===Avengers Idea Mechanics===; Following the death and rebirth of the Multiverse caused by the incursion crisis, da Costa restructured A.I.M. as Avengers Idea Mechanics in the following months, turning it into a group dedicated to international rescue operations, backed up by an Avengers unit, known in the media as the "New" Avengers. The operation ran on the Avengers Island, counting with the inestimable support of Dr. Toni Ho and Dr. Max Brashear. The group was led by the former Thunderbolt Songbird, and was formed by the eccentric Squirrel Girl, the mage Wiccan, the alien hybrid Hulkling, the mystic warrior White Tiger, and the street fighter Power Man.; The new Avengers were tasked to deal with a crisis in Paris, which was caused by the vile extradimensional interloper Maker, who had managed to take control over W.H.I.S.P.E.R. A squad of gamma-enhanced S.H.I.E.L.D. agents was mind-controlled and turned into brainless creatures with the objective of bringing death to Earth. S.H.I.E.L.D. also intervened in the problem, assigning their agent Hawkeye to join A.I.M.'s Avengers as a liaison. The Maker deployed his creature, the Neohaedron, to combat the Avengers. Combining research and action, the Avengers dismantled the Maker's plan and freed the victims from his infection.; The process was still partially successful in summoning a ghost wizard from the Fifth Cosmos, Moridun. The dark creature turned his attention to the Knights of the Infinite, a clan of Kree/Skrull hybrids who regarded Hulkling as their messianic hero able to weild the sacred Star-Sword. In need of help, they kidnapped Hulkling and Wiccan to outer space in order to get help. In Castle Tarnala, Hulkling and Wiccan were attacked by Moridun. The other Avengers, assisted by Pod, were able to follow their teammates and apparently help them destroy Moridun. In fact, Moridun schemed the situation to be able to corrupt Wiccan. As the Avengers kept investigating W.H.I.S.P.E.R., the signs of Moridun's possession became obvious due to Wiccan's violent conduct. The problem was addressed by Avengers who travelled from a future when Moridun was able to accomplish his plans. On the Avengers Island, the time travellers exposed the terrible situation, allowing Wiccan to purge Moridun before their bond could become permanent.; A.I.M. was contacted by Rick Jones, who was running away from S.H.I.E.L.D. after unveiling their disturbing Project: Kobik. Da Costa inquired the Avengers about their intention of fighting S.H.I.E.L.D. to rescue Jones. As Squirrel Girl, Wiccan, and Hulkling refused to take part in the mission, he had them leave A.I.M. to maintain the new Avengers in their own terms. A.I.M. was able to rescue Rick Jones from the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but during the mission Songbird was revealed to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. undercover agent inside A.I.M. As a response, the Pentagon sent the bizarre American Kaiju to attack A.I.M. and retrieve Jones. Da Costa activated his Avenger Five gargantuan robot powered by Pod to protect the island. However, S.H.I.E.L.D. gained tactical advantage specially after Songbird betrayed A.I.M.; although the Kaiju was defeated, A.I.M. was forced to evacuate their base to escape S.H.I.E.L.D., relocating to Avenger Base Two, on the Savage Land.; As a result of the war between S.H.I.E.L.D. and A.I.M., Hawkeye had his ties with both cut. He was joined by Songbird, Squirrel Girl, Wiccan, and Hulkling by fate as they teamed up to combat the Plunderer. However, they showed no interest in having Songbird alongside them due to her actions as a spy. Secretly, Songbird actually acted as a triple agent for A.I.M. Moreover, the independent Avengers were eventually contacted by da Costa to rejoin A.I.M. as part of his plan to resist both S.H.I.E.L.D. and W.H.I.S.P.E.R. Songbird was ultimately exposed and restrained by S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Garrett, who had access to the prophetic abilities of the inhuman Ulysses. Power Man, Dr. Max Brashear as Doctor Positron, and Cannonball were tasked by da Costa to rescue her. The Maker believed the incident to be the opportunity to strike at A.I.M. with his New Revengers. His first target was Dr. Toni Ho, who managed to resist them as Rescue. Da Costa had anticipated the Maker's plans, which involved taking control of A.I.M.'s base with O.M.N.I.T.R.O.N.I.C.U.S. Simultaneously, Garrett launched a terminal attack on the base as well using a deadly bomb. However, da Costa was able to trick S.H.I.E.L.D. into believing W.H.I.S.P.E.R.'s hideout to be A.I.M.'s, causing its destruction and destabilizing the Maker and the New Revengers. The new Avengers reassembled to stop the New Revengers for good.; In light of imminent defeat, the Maker fled and abandoned his own lackeys. The New Revengers fell one by one when fighting the new Avengers. However, in the end, S.H.I.E.L.D. finally arrived on the scene, with Garrett assassinating da Costa upon arrival. In actuality, da Costa had impersonated the president to lure the Maker, with Hulkling pretending to be da Costa and being able to survive the shot. Using his Sunspot powers, da Costa defeated the Maker. Garrett was stopped by his on colleague, Dum Dum Dugan, who he had been controlling.

They found a mysterious dome that emitted radiation that made those affected more violent. Proceeding to search the dome, the New Avengers barely survived its defense systems, with Spider-Man being captured.; They retreated and were then confronted by the Autobots. They told them to leave the dome to them, but the New Avengers retaliated by attacked them. Ratchet used inhibitors to calm most of them down and the unexpected aid of Dr. Doom knocked out Ms. Marvel and Wolverine. The Autobots revealed that their common enemies were Decepticons and the two teams teamed-up to break into the dome.; Ratchet was able to deduce a weakness in the dome's force field. He, Prowl, and Luke Cage were able to break into the facility, but were captured by the Decepticons and Doom. Megatron and Doom revealed their new alliance and demanded they surrender, but the Autobots and New Avengers wouldn't.; Megatron, powered by Spider-Man's blood, confronted the heroes and was met by an Anti-Transformer Armor clad Iron Man. Stark stood no chance, but the battle was distract for the Autobots and Wolverine to break into the facility. Meanwhile, Spider-Man escaped his restraints and met Prowl and Ratchet. He begrudgingly agreed to keep giving blood to empower the Autobots. Logan found them and offered his blood himself, powering them. Then Spidey, Prowl, and Ratchet joined the battlefield while the others located the source of the radiation, the Psycho-Prism, and destroyed it. With the violent wave stopped, the Decepticons retreated.

The group then used the armors to attack Fort Knox and Washington, D.C., retrieve the body of Mutant serial killer Omega Red, and to capture Tony Stark himself.; Realizing the true nature of the team and horrified at Rostov's treatment of the team's agents, such as sacrificing them to revive Omega Red, Darkstar (Laynia Petrovna) betrayed him, freeing Tony Stark and holding off Omega Red as Stark fought Rostov. Rostov seemingly died when he self-destructed the Hulkbuster Armor he had been wearing for the fight.

+History:
+===Gifted Youngsters===; Professor Charles Xavier founded the X-Men in hopes of making a dream of peaceful coexistence between mutants and humans come true, teaching them in the use of their abilities for good at the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. However, Xavier came to believe that his students perished in a battle against the vicious alien known as the Brood. He sank into depression and vowed not to put any more young mutants in danger, but his friend and colleague Dr. Moira MacTaggert convinced him that mutants would face threats regardless and his school would provide ways for new mutants not to fight by themselves. Professor Xavier decided to tutor young mutants in the use of their special powers, but not send them out into combat.; A young Vietnamese refuge known as Karma was one of the mutants in need of help, being recommended to Xavier by Mister Fantastic in order to achieve better control over her mental possession abilities. A second pupil was a lycanthrope orphan girl rebaptized as Wolfsbane who Moira had rescued from an angry mob on Muir Island, Scotland, and had named herself as the girl's guardian. Other young mutants were soon found to be facing dangers. After being informed through a letter by Black Eagle, father of a man who saved Xavier's life during the war, that his granddaughter Danielle Moonstar had to learn to control her mutant abilities of casting nightmares, Professor Xavier, Karma and Wolfsbane went to Colorado only to find the sender dead. They were attacked by troopers who hunted Moonstar but were defeated by Xavier and his new students. Moonstar reluctantly joined Xavier out of obedience for Black Eagle and also in order to get herself revenge against her grandfather's killers. Xavier telepathically learned that Donald Pierce of the elite Hellfire Club wished to use young mutants to take control of that organization away from Sebastian Shaw and then use its resources to kill mutants.; Additionally, Xavier also was made aware that Pierce was after two other targets, one in Brazil and the other in Kentucky. Moira, Karma and Moonstar went to Brazil to track down a young boy whose power was super-strength powered by sunlight granting him the name of Sunspot. Pierce's agents lured him out of hiding by kidnapping his girlfriend, who was killed in the fight. Approached by Karma and Moonstar, he agreed to join Xavier to get the responsible. Professor Xavier and Wolfsbane drove through Kentucky, where they were ambushed by the other mutant they looked for, a young man with rocket-flight and invulnerability powers Cannonball. Under Pierce's pay, Cannonball had Xavier captured, but Wolfsbane escaped in wolf-form, preventing the detection of any human beings nearby. She followed them to their base and was met by the other young mutants. They invaded the base and were subdued, but Cannonball refused to follow Pierce's orders of killing them. Xavier was able to get freed and defeat Pierce, who was taken care of by the Hellfire Club. They initially left Cannonball behind, but he soon arrived at Xavier's some days later to round up the first class of the New Mutants.; The ex-ballerina Stevie Hunter served as the New Mutants' chaperone, physical instructor and adviser. In the Danger Room, which counted with holographic mechanisms, the New Mutants were to be trained and monitored. During a casual moment, Moonstar's powers ran out of control and exposed Karma's nightmares to the rest of the class, sparking a violent interaction between them. Moonstar panicked and missed her first Danger Room assignment as well as a short trip to the town of Salem Center with the other New Mutants. Henry Gyrich of Project: Wideawake sent agents to capture the New Mutants at the local mall. They resisted the agents with help from Colonel Michael Rossi, which prompted Gyrich to use anti-mutant Sentinels against them. The robots were stopped and Karma had the agents admit their participation in the attack to the police.; At the School, Moonstar went to the Danger Room by herself, but was knocked out as a result of sabotage. The New Mutants returned to find her unconscious. She was tormented by images of the Brood and secretly gathered the New Mutants to take measures. They succumbed to illusions Moonstar unwillingly generated. The mystery was soon solved. Xavier was unaware that when the X-Men originally fought the Brood in deep space, he had been infected with a Brood Queen embryo. Part of his decision to form the New Mutants was the embryo's influence to collect superior genetic hosts for more Brood. Moonstar's powers were seen as a threat and he tried to get her to quit the team. The X-Men knew about the situation and returned from space to deal with Xavier, fighting the New Mutants upon a turbulent arrival. Professor Xavier transformed into a Brood Queen and the X-Men and the New Mutants joined forces to subdue him. His mind was transplanted into a cloned and healthy body. Recovered, he apologized for the incidents and welcomed the New Mutants to remain at the School with the X-Men, which they did.; ===The Future of the X-Men===; After helping Stevie Hunter deal with a stalker who harassed her, the New Mutants viewed a motorcycle demonstration by Team America, who were attacked by agents of the crime boss Viper. The New Mutants intervened and Team America unintentionally transformed Moonstar into their Black Rider, leading her to be kidnapped by the Silver Samurai and Viper. Xavier trained Team America to steal a crystal from an A.I.M. base in Mexico to pay Viper's ransom, but was attacked by a malevolent psychic entity. Meanwhile, the New Mutants assembled in California to rescue Moonstar. Out of contact with her mentor, Karma contacted her criminal uncle to lead the New Mutants to Moonstar's rescue, with success. The entity then established contact with Karma at the moment Viper destroyed her own headquarters after escaping. The New Mutants fell into the ocean, and Karma went missing.; After seeing "Cats" in New York City, the New Mutants ran afoul of a gang of teens. Sunspot and Wolfsbane were knocked out, kidnapped by mobsters and injected with a drug similar to the one that had empowered Cloak and Dagger, becoming monstrous versions of themselves. Moonstar and Cannonball met up with Cloak and Dagger and Spider-Man to rescue them. Cloak and Dagger used their powers to absorb the drugs from Sunspot's and Wolfsbane's systems to restore them to normal.; For days the X-Men searched for Karma with no success, and Xavier let the New Mutants presume she was dead in order to protect them from the evil being that had seized her. He had the New Mutants accompany Sunspot's archeologist mother to an expedition in Brazil, believing it would benefit the team cope with Karma's apparent demise. In Rio, they were attacked by the Hellfire Club agent Axe, who kidnapped Sunspot's mother under his own father's orders due to her interference in his illegal wood industry business. After she was freed by the New Mutants, they went to the Amazon rainforest, where they clashed with a tribe of warriors girls, joining a girl named Amara. Betrayed by their guides, who worked for Sunspot's father, the New Mutants were captured by soldiers of the lost civilization of Nova Roma, but managed to escape after a conflict in their arena thanks to Xavier's influence, with Wolfsbane being revered as a wolf deity. Amara was to be sacrificed by the Black Priestess Selene, who feasted on life energy of youths. Moonstar confronted Selene to release Amara from her control, but Amara was knocked into the pit of lava, which awakened her latent mutant powers of controlling magma. Together, Amara and the New Mutants defeated Selene and thwarted her husband Senator Gallio's attempt to kill Amara's father Senator Aquilla to seize power over Nova Roma. Back to Rio, Sunspot severed ties with his father, who decided to join the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club. Amara's father instructed her to join the New Mutants as Magma to learn about modern civilization and control her powers.; Wishing to give Xavier a party, the New Mutants had help from a resident of the School, Illyana Rasputin, sister to the X-Man Colossus who had been kidnapped by the demon lord Belasco and spent years in the hellish Limbo. She had been trained as a demon sorceress, before freeing herself, becoming the ruler of Limbo and reuniting with the X-Men. The party revelation was ruined by the demon S'ym, who was ordered by Belasco to retrieve her. She used her mutant power to teleport the New Mutants to fight S'ym on her behalf, unsuccessfully, before she recovered and summoned her Soulsword to threaten his life. He renounced Belasco and swore loyalty to Illyana. The party took place with Professor Xavier and the X-Men, whereupon she was accepted to the New Mutants as Magik.; The teenage X-Man Kitty Pryde, who was Magik's best friend, proved to be a challenging individual to the other New Mutants, demeaning their status as unexperienced mutants and refusing to join them. She had a close friend in Salem Center, the hacker Doug Ramsey, who helped her sabotage Project: Armageddon's activities, which were linked to the Hellfire Club. As a prodigy, he was invited to tour the Massachusetts Academy, secretly a resource for the Hellfire Club. Ramsey was unaware that he was a mutant with the power of deciphering languages, and Pryde chose to accompany him, but she was captured by Emma Frost, the headmistress of the academy and White Queen of the Hellfire Club. Magik decided to investigate the disappearance of her friend and learned about the kidnapping. With the heroes of the world, including the X-Men, unwillingly being part of the Beyonder's experiment away from Earth, the New Mutants joined Magik by themselves in infiltrating the Massachusetts Academy, but were telepathically tricked by Frost. In an attempt to rescue Pryde and Ramsey, they were then subdued by Frost's class of students, the Hellions, with only Moonstar and Magik escaping to Limbo as a way to prevent being captured. Limbo's temporal instability led them to watch the New Mutants being recruited into the Hellions one year in the future and then return to one week past their present, when the Hellions proposed a battle contest for the New Mutants' freedom. Frost interrupted the ordeal feeling her authority had been usurped, a distraction that allowed Pryde to disrupt the electronic systems of the Massachusetts Academy's training room, leading to the New Mutants' escape.; ===Demons and Monsters===; Back to the School, Moonstar experienced nightmarish visions of the Demon Bear, a ghost entity responsible for her parents' disappearance in the past. She chose to summon the beast and confront it by herself with disastrous consequences, for the New Mutants found her nearly dead in the woods around the School. Being taken to the nearby medical center for emergency surgery, where the Demon Bear tracked her to and was opposed by the New Mutants. It transported them to its world along with Officer Corsi and Nurse Friedlander, who were transformed into minions to fight the New Mutants. Magik cast protective spells around the operating room to allow Moonstar's recovery, prevented the New Mutants from succumbing to the beast, and slayed it with her Soulsword, releasing Moonstar's parents. Reunited with her parents, Moonstar received additional healing from the Morlocks' Healer, though she would use a wheelchair, then a cane for some time. Locked in super-enhanced bodies with Native-American appearance, Corsi and Friedlander became associated with Xavier's School.; When in route to visit Cannonball's family, Professor Xavier and the New Mutants witnessed a dangerous forest fire and worked to extinguish it. The incident had been caused by Hybrid, a mutant Dire Wraith/human crossbreed who had become the ward of the local preacher and wished to reproduce. The New Mutants were defeated by the monster, except for Magik, who escaped and met the Spaceknight Rom and defeated Hybrid, saving the New Mutants and Rom's partner Starshine.; Back to Westchester, the girls of the New Mutants hosted a slumber party with girls invited from the local high school without adult supervision. Meanwhile, the boys found the techno-organic alien Warlock, who had crashed on the School grounds fleeing his murderous sire, the Magus. The vampiric Warlock fought the New Mutants in the erupting confusion, not being able to communicate with them. The New Mutants went to town to ask Doug Ramsey for help in conversing with the alien using holograms generated by the Danger Room, with Ramsey realizing Warlock was a mutant of his species. Warlock and Ramsey, under the mutant codename Cypher, joined the New Mutants with Professor Xavier's blessing after he returned to the school. Warlock and Cypher developed a close bond in the team.; Sunspot gifted backstage passes for the New Mutants to attend rockstar Lila Cheney's last concert on her world tour. Before the show, Cannonball saved Cheney from falling equipment, which Warlock discovered to had been sabotaged by a Vrakanin alien, who the New Mutants battled. During the fight, Cheney left after concluding her show through a teleporting stargate with her band and Cannonball across the galaxy to her own Dyson Sphere. Warlock activated the stargate and assumed the shape of a vessel for the New Mutants to follow them despite Cheney, who was in fact an intergalactic thief, not wanting them to. The leader of the Vrakanin, Charasúlla, wished to make an exclusive deal with Cheney over the theft of Earth, managing to capture her and the New Mutants due to the betrayal of one of her bandmates. The New Mutants defeated the aliens, but damaged the planet-moving technology, setting up a self-destruct which put Earth in danger; Cypher was able to turn it off. Lila Cheney then used her mutant power to transport them across inter-stellar distances to London and started a relationship with Cannonball.; Sunspot and Wolfsbane were inadvertently corrupted by the powers of Cloak and Dagger respectively, a result of the past incident involving them. Sunspot succumbed to Cloak's darkness, trapping Colossus and attacking Xavier and Moira, while Wolfsbane struggled with sleepwalks related to Dagger. The New Mutants approached the powerless Cloak and Dagger to sort the situation out while Wolfsbane eased Sunspot's condition with her new abilities and rescue Colossus. With Magik unable to restore them, Cloak and Dagger offered to purge the young mutants of their curse. Using the power-siphoning abilities of the X-Man Rogue, Professor Xavier solved the situation by returning Cloak and Dagger their powers.; ===Shadows Within===; For a long time, Moira had kept Xavier's catatonic son David under her care in her research center on Muir Island at the request of his mother Ambassador Gabrielle Haller. Xavier was not aware of the child's existence. David's insanely powerful psychic abilities had shattered his mind into several personalities and power sets, earning him the alias of Legion. When Legion's conditioned worsened, he caused mayhem in Moira's center, harming Corsi and Friedlander. At Moira's request, Professor Xavier arrived on Muir Island with New Mutants Moonstar, Wolfsbane, Cypher and Warlock. Xavier had no success in helping his son's condition leading to Moira, Haller and the New Mutants to be absorbed into Legion's mind, which was represented by a war-torn city. Separately, they met Legion's three erratic personas, who aggressively opposed each other. They targeted the telepathic personality Jemail Karami, which was created from the leader of a terrorist attack David had survived years before. Defeated, Karami revealed he actually wished to heal Legion's mind to get himself free. Xavier was then betrayed and put out of commission by Legion's telekinetic personality, Jack Wayne. Moonstar took charge of the situation and demanded the cooperation of all personalities to restore Legion's psyche and return everyone to the physical world.; Due to the machinations of the vengeful Hellion Empath, Sunspot and Magma were kidnapped by a representative of the Gladiators, a group of mutants who fought to death in an amusement Arena in Los Angeles. In order to find them, Cannonball and Magik sought help with Lila Cheney, meeting her bodyguard, the blockbuster Guido Carosella, and the pop singer with light-based powers known as the Dazzler, who had previous experience with the Arena. Together, they infiltrated the deadly organization. Simultaneously, Xavier sensed Beyonder arriving on Earth and, being incapacitated, asked his archenemy Magneto to take care of his students. Magneto invaded the Arena, requesting the mutants to join them for protection. Sunspot and Magma chose to stay, knowing the Arena's criminal operations should be stopped. The other New Mutants joined the X-Men in fighting Thundersword, when the Beyonder intervened, corrupting Magik and making her succumb to her Darkchylde side and trapping the New Mutants, the Dazzler, Kitty Pryde and Rachel Summers in Limbo. Pryde restored Magik with her own Soulsword and led another rescue attempt. Dazzler and Pryde infiltrated the Gladiators, learning that the Arena rulers threatened loner runaways. The manager of the Arena corrupted Dazzler, captured Pryde and revealed herself to be Karma. After making way through the Gladiators, the New Mutants were in shock when confronting a morbidly obese and vile Karma, who managed to disappear.; Folling Karma to Madripoor, the New Mutants were apprehended. Immune to her telepathy, Magik and Moonstar escaped through timeline to Cairo, where Karma had another headquarters. After arriving to the present, they met up with the powerless X-Men leader Storm, who had been recruited by Warlock. Storm knew Karma had been possessed by the vile Shadow King. After another rescue attempt was only partially successful, Magik turned all of her allies over to Karma, excepting Warlock, who initially distrusted her but decided to help in the fight against Karma. They tricked the Shadow King and awakened Karma from the possession. Magik teleported the New Mutants and Storm to Limbo to free them, but Cypher was possessed. On the Astral Plane, Karma went to psychic war and recovered her soul from her aggressor.; Storm took the New Mutants to enjoy a time-off on Kirinos to recuperate. The Asgardian God of Mischief Loki took a special interest in Storm and asked his ally, the Enchantress to fight the X-Men deliver Storm to him. The New Mutants resisted and she took them hostages instead. Magik tried to escape through teleportation, but the Enchantress' magic blocked it, which caused the other New Mutants to be scattered in time and space across Asgard, while Magik remained the Enchantress' prisoner, being tortured and having her Darkchylde identity materialized as an agent of Enchantress; Karma spent months in the desert, surviving to protect a young girl, which was in fact an illusion, and regaining her will to live to lose her excessive weight; Wolfsbane was attacked by Giants, teaming up and falling in love with the wolf-prince Hrimhari; Cypher was humiliated into serving a tavern; Warlock was observed by the Goddess of Death Hela; boosted by the mystic sun of Asgard, Sunspot built a reputation as a charming hero alongside the Warriors Three; Magma was seduced by Fairies into becoming one of them; as a miner, Cannonball earned the respect of the Dwarves ruled by Eitri; and Moonstar made a bond with a flying horse named Brightwind after rescuing her from barbed ropes and mire in which it was trapped, unknowingly becoming a Valkyrie. Through a series of misadventures involving the corrupted Darkchylde, the New Mutants reassembled. On Limbo, Magik, who had broken free, defeated the Enchantress and left her to be tortured by S'ym.; Storm was still under Loki's power, being reempowered by the Stormcaster, crafted with the New Mutants' assistance by Eitri. Sensing Magik's distress through the hidden action of the Queen of the Norns Karnilla, Pryde led the X-Men to Asgard to join the New Mutants in releasing Storm. Loki captured some members of both teams and a battle ensued to free the mutants to prevent Loki from ascending to the throne of Asgard. Storm slayed the X-Man Wolverine, which broke Loki's control over her. Storm fired at Hela, who wanted to claim her teammate's soul. Confronting Loki, Pryde threatened him of calling on the Asgardians who usually defeat him for his actions. Loki returned all mutants to Earth the way they had arrived, excepting Karma, who kept her current weight. The Valkyries did not let Moonstar leave their clan or depart without Brightwind. Loki teleported the New Mutants and X-Men to Xavier in Paris, where Magneto stood trial at the International Court for his past crimes as a terrorist. The supremacist Fenris twins attacked, seeking revenge on Xavier, Magneto and Haller for their father's defeat by them decades in the past. The X-Men refused to let the New Mutants go into action. Although the Fenris were defeated and Magneto pardoned, Xavier's injuries forced him to go to space with his lover Majestrix Lilandra of the Shi'ar and the Starjammers to recover. Before departing, he implored Magneto to take over the School as headmaster and teach the New Mutants in his name. Magneto agreed, and took on the alias of a cousin of Xavier, which Charles had set up for this eventuality.; ===Headmaster Magneto===; Back at the mansion, the New Mutants were skeptical of being educated by Magneto, but decided to give him a chance after he roughed-up fraternity men who tried to assault Moonstar on her way home from town. Tragedy soon laid upon Magneto's class. The Beyonder contacted Magik, taking her as a disciple and cleansing her soul of Darkchylde. Pryde inherited her mystic artifacts, making her a victim of demons who escaped from Limbo and wanted to create a Bloodgem from her soul. Magik rejected the Beyonder, regaining her powers and darkness to free Pryde. Sunspot was spiritually tormented by the Beyonder as well and returned to Brazil, effectively leaving the New Mutants. This proved to save his life since Moonstar experienced a vision of imminent death for the New Mutants. The Beyonder arrived, easily slaughtering the New Mutants and erasing them from reality. Resurrected as emotionless slaves to fight other super-heroes for the Beyonder, the New Mutants witnessed their master fail. Though freed, they were deeply traumatized, left uncaring and unmotivated, with nightmares of repeated deaths. Emma Frost used Empath's powers to manipulate Magneto into feeling helpless in order to have him transfer the apathetic New Mutants to her Massachusetts Academy, which he did in hopes of her providing therapy. Moonstar and Warlock declined, for as a Valkyrie and an alien they still had emotional breakthroughs.; Frost inducted them into the Hellions, using her telepathy over the next weeks to modify their memories so they could function again, but they were still having nightmares. Magneto was told by the very distressed Corsi and Friedlander about Empath and furiously went after his students. Sensing his intentions, she called the sheriff, who alerted the Avengers to fight Magneto when he arrived with Warlock. Magneto evaded the Avengers after the other New Mutants demonstrated to support him. Together, over the next few days, Magneto worked with Frost to help the New Mutants deal emotionally with their experiences. The New Mutants ultimately decided to return to Xavier's School, but started to see Frost and her Hellions as rivals, not enemies. Sunspot returned to Xavier's, being shocked when updated about what had transpired. He was particularly interested in getting revenge against Empath for having molested Corsi and Friedlander. The New Mutants haunted Empath, triggering the Hellions to rescue their teammate even though they despised him. The New Mutants and the Hellions came to an agreement after realizing that being aggressive to Empath made them no better than him. Soon after, with Wolfsbane visiting Moira on the Muir Island, they were attacked by Legion, who escaped when experiencing turmoil in his personalities. Moonstar felt Wolfsbane's distress and gathered the New Mutants to stop him, in hopes of protecting the young.; Back to America, Sunspot and Wolfsbane were dazzled by the TV show, the Wildways. He contacted the hosts to be part of it and they were kidnapped by the insane Mojo and his slave sorceress Spiral, who came from the deranged television realm of Mojoworld. Alongside Karma's younger siblings Leong and Nga and the Bratpack, the Wildways were aged to adulthood. The New Mutants attempted to rescue their missing teammates, being attacked by the Wildways in the process. As the New Mutants were also aged up and brainwashed to join the Wildways, Cypher and Warlock ran away, running across the hero Captain Britain, who had been turned into a child by Mojo. Another prisoner of Mojo was Captain Britain's sister, the telepath Psylocke, who monitored the Wildways and was eventually released by Cypher and Warlock. This led to Mojo's and Spiral's defeat and the New Mutants' freedom and return to their proper selves. After this adventure, when monitoring Magneto and the X-Men train in the Danger Room, the New Mutants witnessed the mysterious Longshot appear out of thin air boobytrapped with a strange substance that transformed all of those training there into children, the X-Babies. Cypher linked the effect to Mojo and Spiral, but the unreasonable X-Babies attacked the New Mutants before they could take action against the real masterminds behind the crisis. The New Mutants took up the role of graduated X-Men to go after the X-Babies in Mojoworld, breaking them free from the villains' control. Together, the two teams ended up battling and defeating Mojo. With her master incapacitated, Spiral was forced to return the mutants home. The New Mutants proudly returned their graduation costumes.; Death surrounded the New Mutants. First, when an acquaintance, Larry Bodine committed suicide fearing the mutant hunters from X-Factor would capture him. Then, the Morlocks were massacred by the deadly Marauders and Magneto and the X-Men intervened. Many of the victims were brought to Xavier's School, prompting Magik to teleport to Muir Island to recruit Moira to tend their wounds. In desperation, the New Mutants watched in horror the pain of their species. Simultaneously, Magik helped Karma look for her missing siblings in her apartment, only for the New Mutants find the place destroyed and the children truly gone. Before they could take action, they were attacked by Warlock's murderous progenitor Magus. Magik retreated to Limbo, but the villain followed them, infecting the hellish dimension with the Transmode Virus and forcing the New Mutants to escape through the past, when they allied themselves with Robert the Bruce. Unfortunately, when attempting to return, they were thrown into alternate futures. In one of them, mutants were oppressed, and Sunspot, Wolfsbane, Karma and Magma teamed up with a future version of themselves. In another one, Cypher, Warlock, Mirage and Cannonball met mutant supremacy, joining the resistance led by Katie Power. Magik struggled by herself in the present to recover her realm from Magus' influence, eventually escaping and meeting Professor Xavier and the Starjammers galaxies away from Earth. He returned to Limbo with her to find an infected S'ym, who had allied himself with Magus. S'ym escaped with plans of corrupting Limbo, and Magik made the difficult choice of letting him go in order to rescue her teammates from the futures they had been trapped in. Back to the present and to outer space, the New Mutants were reassembled and, with the Starjammers' help, confronted a near omnipotent Magus, allowing Cypher and Warlock to ultimately sabotage his systems to put him out of commission.; The Shi'ar space proved to be a dangerous location for the New Mutants, prompting Xavier to force Magik to teleport them home, contrary to her wishes of not accessing Limbo again. While they were gone, Magneto forged an alliance with the Hellfire Club, becoming their White King. With their return, he disciplined them for their behavior by having them grounded and unsure of his methods contacted Moira for council. During a soccer match, an enraged Sunspot hurt Cannonball, being reprimanded by his colleagues for his short temper. After reading Magneto's notes about his behaviour, Sunspot ran away from the School, followed by Warlock. Together, they joined a gang of mutant misfits led by the thief Vanisher. They attended a gala party of the Hellfire Club, where old animosities against the new Black Queen Selene and the Hellions emerged. To settle the differences between the two groups of students, they proposed a secret contest to find the responsible for introducing a forgery of a statue of Selene into the Hellfire Club. The scammers were identified by the two teams to be the Viper and the Silver Samurai, with the Hellions outperforming the New Mutants and being successful in apprehending them. Karma chose to abandon the New Mutants during the caper, in order to look for her missing siblings by herself.; After going to party with Lila Cheney, where Cannonball was drugged and kidnapped by some of her enemies led by the flying Raek, but saved by the New Mutants, the team focused on saving a mysterious boy, and a possible mutant named Bird-Brain, who had been arrested by local authorities. The Hellions had took the same mission for themselves and, once again, the two teams clashed with each other to recruit the creature. Though the New Mutants were successful, this adventure led Magma to leave the team to join the Massachusetts Academy as a Hellion. The savage Bird-Brain could not adjust to the human world, and Magneto decided to turn him over to the authorities that had him. However, Cypher communicated with him and learned he was the result of an experiment. Disobeying Magneto, the New Mutants investigated Bird-Brain's origins and accompanied him to the island he came from, since he wanted to save his companions, the Ani-Mates. Their vile creator, the Ani-Mator, who was associated with the anti-mutant organization known as the Right, captured the New Mutants who had invaded his headquarters. Cypher was able to convince the Ani-Mates into releasing the New Mutants, who could not find Magneto for help. They still managed to defeat the Ani-Mator, but reinforcements came in the form of the Right's leader, Cameron Hodge. In the ensuing fight, the New Mutants were rejoined by Sunspot and Warlock, who wished to help their friends. Not having a physical power, Cypher put himself away from danger, until he realized the Ani-Mator aimed a gun at Wolfsbane; he hurled into the way to protect her and was shot to death. The Right retreated, and the New Mutants only realized their teammate had fallen after the battle was over. As an immediate response, Magik succumbed to anger and decided to trap soldiers of the Right in Limbo, which was gradually being overtaken by the techno-organic S'ym. To make matters worse, the X-Men fell when warring against the Adversary. Magneto and the New Mutants engaged in a debate about their safety, damaging their relationship. With the X-Men gone, the New Mutants rejected Magneto and chose to act as super-heroes by themselves.; ===Dark Children===; Magik blamed the inventor Forge for the death of the X-Men and had the New Mutants' help in an attempt to kill him in Dallas, Texas. Instead, they were intercepted the government agents of Freedom Force. Their seer Destiny accused Magik of being involved in a dreadful demonic invasion in the future. In her bloodlust, Magik found Forge, but the New Mutants worried about her succumbing to a dark path of revenge. On Limbo, the New Mutants were able to convince her to spare his life, with Moonstar casting an illusion that demonstrated her imminent transformation into the Darkchylde. Back home, they eavesdropped a conversation between Magneto and Frost, learning that Magma had been kidnapped during a trip to Nova Roma. She had been captured by the High Evolutionary's Gatherers for being judged to be a dangerous mutant. The New Mutants found her and, amidst the fight, spotted Magneto and the Hellfire Club. They chose to run away without letting their teacher identify them, escalating their schism.; Not long after this, Illyana accidently called a demon posing as Baba Yaga from her mind while working on a class assignment. While Cannonball, Wolfsbane, Sunspot, Mirage and Warlock were captured by the hag and her minions, the former planning to eat them, Illyana managed to escape to Limbo. As she couldn't save her friends directly, Illyana decided to contact the spirit of her seemingly deceased brother, Colossus for help. A few days later, due to 'Baba Yaga' feeding them, the five New Mutants had gained an enormous amount of weight. Peter, who was really alive like the other 'deceased' X-Men, arrived via a portal, convincing Illyana her spell had worked. Upon arriving at the mansion, Colossus found the five NMs and managed to save them, with Illyana undoing 'Baba Yaga's' damage, restoring the mansion and her enormously obese friends back to normal.; The alien slaver Spyder claimed property on Lila Cheney and captured her during one of her concerts. A desperate Cannonball had the New Mutants intervene, but they were unable to prevent her kidnapping. Mysteriously, one of Spyder's slaves, the girl Gosamyr, approached the New Mutants, asking for help in getting her family freed from him in exchange for helping them find Cheney. The New Mutants were suspicious of this oddly convenient situation, but Sunspot became infatuated with Gosamyr and immediately vouched for her. In a spaceship Gosamyr had stolen, the New Mutants tracked Spyder. However, Gosamyr's presence destabilized their emotions. Trapped in the Spyder's lair, the New Mutants warred against his lackeys. During the battle, Warlock, who was immune to Gosamyr's influence, convinced Magik to oppose her and force her to lead the group to Cheney, which cost Magik more of her control over her dark persona. Gosamyr rebelled against her captor to help the New Mutants, but Spyder transformed her family members into monstrous creatures to end her and the New Mutants. Lila Cheney sacrificed herself to destroy the monsters, much to Cannonball's despair. In order to escape Spyder's forces, Magik tried to teleport the New Mutants to Earth, but S'ym managed to trap them in Limbo, consolidating his victory over the control of Limbo.; As part of his plan, S'ym also wished to subdue Earth. He joined forces with a rival, the wizard N'astirh, to merge the domains of Limbo with Earth. N'astirh's ritual involved sacrificing several mutant babies he had his minions capture. The kidnappings caught the attention of X-Factor's young mutant protégés, the X-Terminators. Meanwhile, the New Mutants struggled against S'ym in Limbo. N'astirh offered them help, and Magik was tricked by him into reacquiring her Soulsword and return to Earth; in doing this, she was fully transformed into the Darkchylde and unwillingly led a horde of demons to New York City, igniting a demonic inferno. In their war against N'astirh, the New Mutants were joined by the X-Terminators on Earth, making imperative to rescue the kidnapped infants. They were able to get hold of the babies, but N'astirh was infected by the transmode virus in the process, becoming a techno-organic creature just like S'ym and gaining advantage against the Darkchylde. While the Darkchylde battled S'ym, the New Mutants watched in horror Magneto and the Hellfire Club discussing a pact with N'astirh. In order to torment the Darkchilde, S'ym had his demons retrieve Colossus, who was alive in secret just like the other X-Men. During the convoluted battle, the New Mutants helped the Darkchylde, who travelled through time to collect a past version of herself prior to her demonic corruption. By sacrificing her own existence, the Darkchylde eliminated her influence on Limbo and the demonic invasion was stopped. Paradoxically, the child version of Magik, a young and innocent Illyana Rasputin, emerged from the Darkchylde's death.; Doug's death and Illyana's sacrifice have drove Magneto far away from his students as he blamed himself for his death as well as Humans (Homo sapiens). The New Mutants were left without a headquarters of their own and lived temporarily at X-Factor's. Tabitha Smith, Rictor, Rusty Collins and Skids joined the team when the X-Terminators and the New Mutants merged.; When Hela attempted to take over Asgard, Dani and the other Valkyrie were infected with a mystical fever. Hela planned to use Moonstar to gather humans to her forces to defeat Thor. Transported back to Asgard, Moonstar fell under the sway of Hela and nearly killed Odin. Hela was defeated by the combined forces of the New Mutants and the Asgardians, and the New Mutants were returned to Earth; all except Moonstar who chose to stay behind, hoping to repair the damage as a Valkyrie.; ===Cable and X-Force===; Cable took command of the New Mutants to guide Cannonball's ascension into the Externals.; The New Mutants were captured by the X-Men's enemy Cameron Hodge and taken to the island of Genosha, a mutant-repressive nation with advanced anti-mutant technology. Hodge had developed a cybernetic body and attempted to siphon off Warlock's shape-shifting power so he could change his robotic body at will. Hodge was confronted by the combined might of the X-Men and New Mutants, while Warlock was still imprisoned. Although Hodge's plan was thwarted by the New Mutant Wolfsbane, Warlock appeared to have died, his energies leeched from him, reducing him to ashes. Later, Warlock's ashes were scattered over the grave of Doug Ramsey.; When Sunspot's father died (killed by the External Gideon), Bobby went with Gideon, who was an old friend, to take over his father's business. Gideon, however, was looking for the next External, mistakenly thinking that it was Sunspot. With the addition of Feral, Shatterstar, and Warpath, the team reorganized into the original X-Force under Cable.; For detailed information about Cable's revamped version of the outlaw team, see X-Force; The legacy of the New Mutants also survived in the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning. Years after their disbandment, Moonstar supervised her own group of students who she named after her original team as the New Mutants Squad.; For detailed information about Moonstar's group of students, see New Mutants Squad; ===Fall and Rise of the New Mutants===; With the X-Men relocated to San Francisco, many of the former New Mutants operated there: Karma and Cannonball acted as X-Men; Moonstar and Sunspot taught a group of younger mutants; and Magma focused on taking care of Empath, who had been incarcerated by the X-Men. In this setting, reports of a mutant emerging in Westcliffe, Colorado, prompted X-Men leader Cyclops to send Karma and Moonstar to investigate. A recently resurrected Magik happened upon the X-Men alerting them that Karma and Moonstar faced extreme danger. Thus, Cyclops gave Cannonball permission to assemble an X-Men team formed by the former New Mutants living in San Francisco to rescue them.; In Westcliffe, the New Mutants learned the potential mutant was a little girl named Marci Sabol. Cannonball and Sunspot found Karma's catatonic body in a bar, but her consciousness was trapped in Legion's body, who was kept caged in Sabol's house and found by Magik and Magma. The personalities in Legion's body wanted to kill Moonstar for her participation in having defeated him in the past; this led Cannonball and Sunspot to fight Legion. Moonstar was in a jail cell from where Cannonball had refused to get her freed in hopes of keeping her safe, since she no longer had mutant powers as a result of the mutant decimation. His decision actually facilitated Legion to harm her, though she was saved by Magma and Magik, with the latter choosing to enter Legion's psyche to stop him. As the New Mutants resisted Legion physically, Magik was able to cruelly subdue him and recover Karma. The X-Men arrived on the scene and restrained Legion. Although the New Mutants acted dysfunctionally under Cannonball's leadership, they managed to survive the lethal encounter and get Cyclops' respect and recognition.; The X-Men went to war against the forces of Norman Osborn. To defeat the god Ares, who was a member of Osborn's Avengers, Moonstar made a deal with Hela in Las Vegas to become a Valkyrie again and defeat Ares alongside Brightwind. Ultimately, mutantkind thrived against Osborn and left the United States, setting home in a new island-nation called Utopia. In their new home, the New Mutants worked for their official recognition as an X-Men team, when Cannonball requested not to include Moonstar in the roster. She challenged him to a duel, and they came to an understanding during their fight: the depowered Moonstar would join Cannonball's team and be treated as an equal.; Utopia was soon targeted by the witch Selene, who used the Transmode Virus to resurrect many deceased mutants as her slaves. Cypher was one these mutants and was ordered to kill Magma. He was able to brutally maim Magma, causing the New Mutants to counter attack him. The battle was interrupted by Warlock, who in an attempt to save Cypher was violently damaged by him as well. The Hellions were then assigned to retrieve Cypher, who was resisting Selene's control due to Warlock's intervention. The New Mutants split up to fight the Hellions to rescue Cypher as well as bring Magma to Utopia's infirmary. In the end, the New Mutants were victorious, and Warlock, who had repaired himself, used Magik's Soulsword to purge the Transmode infection from Cypher.; As Magma, Cypher and Warlock recovered from their injuries, Magik revealed to Emma Frost her true condition as a soulless creature who had traveled back in time to strengthen the X-Men to prevent the the Elder Gods from Limbo from ascending and consuming reality. The other New Mutants battled the Savage Land Mutates who believed Utopia had been founded by Magneto. This mission led Cyclops to consider Moonstar a possible replacement for himself as a future leader of mutantkind. Meanwhile, Moonstar had her own agenda, being summoned by Hela to pay her favor. During Osborn's siege of Asgard, she gathered the spirits of the warriors who had fallen in battle and protected them from the vile Dísir; the other New Mutants were not fully aware of this adventure of hers while they enjoyed a free time in Las Vegas.; When Cable came from the future with Hope, the first mutant born after the mutant decimation, the New Mutants were tasked by Cyclops to strategically wait for orders in the Midwest. On the other hand, Magik was moved to the main X-Men team to directly track Cable and Hope, who were being hunted by Bastion's Human Council. The New Mutants targeted Cameron Hodge and his Right to prevent them from joining the rest of the Human Council. During the battle, Karma was seriously wounded by Hodge, who piloted an strong mechanical body. Simultaneously, Magik was banished to Limbo by the Purifiers. Cypher convinced Warlock to consume the lifeforce of the soldiers in order to allow the New Mutants to escape, which proved to be a traumatic experience for him. Partially thanks to their effort, Hope was taken to Utopia. There, Madison Jeffries treated Karma and eventually developed a prosthetic leg for her. Cannonball gathered a new team of X-Men to retrieve Magik from Limbo, being teleported by a reluctant Pixie, who had been manipulated by Magik in the past. They unexpectedly battled N'astirh and Gambit's corrupting Death persona, but, specially due to Pixie's actions, Magik was saved and the enemies were subdued. Meanwhile, on Utopia, Moonstar confronted Hope, claiming mutant lives were placed in danger because of her. Utopia was soon trapped inside an energy dome by Bastion and Cypher went with X-Force to the future to destroy the Sentinel machine system that kept sending Nimrods to kill Hope and the X-Men inside the impenetrable dome. In the end, Hope's mutant powers brought mutantkind a win against the Human Council.; Following the war for the life of Hope, Cannonball got the New Mutants a recreational leave to cope with the recent events. Magik secretly expected to be kidnapped by the initiative of U.S. soldiers known as Project Purgatory who had spent years on Limbo and wished to liberate the Elder Gods for their purposes. Instead, they apprehended Pixie, which prompted Magik to interrupt their vacation and take the New Mutants to the temporally unstable Limbo in order to acquire time to oppose Project Purgatory. After weeks, the New Mutants arrived at Project Purgatory's base, where they attempted to extract a Bloodgem from Pixie's soul. There, the New Mutants were attacked by the mutant babies they had rescued from N'Astirh during Madelyne Pryor's demonic invasion years before. Raised in Limbo, the babies grew up to become vicious mutants compliant to Project Purgatory, known as the "Inferno Babies". The New Mutants were easily defeated and tortured by the Inferno Babies. From Magik and Pixie, Project Purgatory were able to complete the Bloodgem amulet to open a path to the Elder Gods.; However, Karma was able to telepathically commune with one of the Inferno Babies, the sensory deprived Face, which allowed her and Magik to defeat some of their enemies and return to Utopia. There, Magik assembled an army of X-Men and finally revealed to Karma her true plans of freeing Legion's insane personality to weaponize his volatile reality-shaping abilities. She had been originally responsible for his return in order to erase the Elder Gods from existence. On Limbo, the New Mutants were able to violently escape their oppressors by killing many of them, but could not prevent the Elder Gods from accessing Earth. Legion easily destroyed the demons out of gratitude for having been restored by Magik. Earth was saved, Magik and Pixie restored the missing parts of theirs souls and the New Mutants were able to recover after weeks of tortuous fights. However, Magik's reckless actions earned her the distrust of the X-Men, who chose to keep her incarcerated, something she agreed with.; ===Mutant Rescuers===; Legion's return proved to be a dangerous act indeed, since he accidentally reshaped Utopia into the Fortress X, an altered pocket reality where Cannonball commanded the X-Men in the form of the Mutant Resistance and Moonstar had a Cadre that mirrored the New Mutants. The X-Men were able to overcome the illusion, revert the situation and defeat Legion, but in the process Cannonball realized his inefficiency as a leader. This prompted him to step down from the team. Karma also decided to leave in order to take care of Face. Moonstar believed this to be the end of the New Mutants, but Cyclops chose to reshape the group as a rescue unit to bring loner mutants to Utopia, having Moonstar as the leader of the operation. The team was constantly evaluated by the therapist Gus Grim.; Their first mission was to rescue Nate Grey, the X-Man, an alternate version of Cable who had been tortured by Norman Osborn during his rule. X-Man was kept by the vile Sugar Man in the Omega Machine, a power siphoning mechanism Osborn used. Sugar Man wished to travel back to their home dimension using its powers. The New Mutants were able to pinpoint their location, causing them to fight the Sugar Man and his artificially-empowered Mutates. Moonstar personally dealt with the Sugar Man, preventing his escape. She chose to hand him to Osborn's replacement, the former Captain America Commander Steve Rogers. Although heavily underpowered, X-Man was safe and moved to Utopia with the New Mutants.; Soon after, Earth was attacked by the Asgardian God of Fear, who had mystically empowered villains to combat the world's heroes. Juggernaut marched to Utopia, leading Cyclops to propose numerous plans to defeat him. One of his plans was having Moonstar contact Hela again, but Hela herself struggled with the war by having her domain Hel invaded by the ravenous soul-eating Draumar. Moonstar was unwillingly recruited by Hela, and, as the other New Mutants realized she had gone missing, they visited Magik in her cell for help. Magik provided Cypher with a teleportation spell to travel to Hel and rescue their teammate. Unfortunately, he mistranslated the spell and had the New Mutants arrive in Hell, where Mephisto agreed to transport them to their required destination on one condition: a date with Magma, something she agreed with. Some time later, she honored her promise and enjoyed a pleasant date with him. Reunited with Moonstar, the New Mutants resisted the Draumar and ultimately found Hela's corpse. Having returned Hela's soul to her revived body, the New Mutants were boosted by a portion of her power in order to hold off the Draumar, which were shown to have an aversion to Warlock's unfamiliar extraterrestrial technology. This led X-Man to propose Hela to show the creatures his own life history, which caused them to vaporized due to the clash with the alien unknown information. With her realm once again under her control Hela thanked the New Mutants and transported them back home safely.; Due to the ideological schism that separated the X-Men in two teams, one lead by Cyclops on Utopia and the other by Wolverine in Westchester, the New Mutants choose to continue to work with Cyclops since he had put faith in their operation. Instead of living on Utopia with the other X-Men, the New Mutants decided to live together in an apartment in San Francisco in an attempt to have an integrated existence with human society. The group was tasked with finding Blink, one of Selene's former lackeys. The linked the wayward mutant to the source of several natural disasters. She informed the New Mutants that she had been tracking the heavy metal band Diskhord, who triggered the events during their performances, putting many people at risk in the process. Cypher came into contact with an inter-universal entity that the band empowered with chaos energy generated from their activities. As Magma prevented them from causing an earthquake in Chicago, the New Mutants knock the members of the band out and released the alien entity in outer space. In the end, Blink chose to move to the mutant community in Westchester.; ===Decyphered===; Experiencing nightmares about his death at the hands of the Ani-Mator, Cypher had the New Mutants' help in confronting the cause of his demise. In the Paradise island, they were attacked by an undead Bird-Brain, which caused them to be plagued by a local virus and prompt Warlock to quarantine them. Making their way through other Ani-Mates, they found the Ani-Mator's laboratory in hopes of accessing a cure. However, the virus was revealed to host the Ani-Mator's consciousness and attacked the team. Cypher and Warlock merged to combat the contaminant Ani-Mator. With the experience of having contacted the entity Diskhord transported, Cypher used the Transmode virus to erase the Ani-Mator's sentience. The island of Paradise was cleaned of the Ani-Mator's influence, the New Mutants returned home and Cypher came to terms with his death and resurrection.; Loki and Hela's servant Leah distributed the litter of Hel-Hounds, one of the puppies was intended to be given to Moonstar, but Warlock secretly took care of the puppy without the New Mutants' knowledge. At the same time, one of the New Mutants' neighbor was in fact the lost Asgardian hero Sigurd the Everglorious, who was aware of the puppy being adopted. Attracting the New Mutants' suspicions, he was confronted by Moonstar, who he recognized as a Valkyrie. Simultaneously, the Dísir, who had been tortured by Mephisto, managed to escape and hunt Sigurd down, for they wished for revenge against him for having abandoned them and having caused All-Father Bor to turn them into cannibalistic ghosts. The commotion prompted the New Mutants, Hela, Tyr, Loki, Thor, Sif and the Warriors Three to intervene. Sigurd cast a spell that trapped all the deities there in an illusion where they lived normal lives in the neighborhood the New Mutants resided.; The New Mutants realized the situation after crossing paths with a brainwashed Thor living as a mechanic. In their investigation, they found Loki and were able to break him free of the illusion. Having teamed up with Loki, they were able to locate Sigurd, who claimed to be unable to counter the spell. The New Mutants helped Loki prepare a spell to revert the condition, but it backfired since he was still under the illusion and only pretended to have been awoken. Their intervention only set the Dísir loose on Earth to feast on whoever they wanted. The Dísir's vicious attack triggered Loki, Leah and Hela to recover their memories. Once more empowered by Hela, the New Mutants were able to subdue the Dísir. To break Bor's curse, Sigurd was to marry the Dísir, with the New Mutants helping to arrange the ceremony. However, Moonstar opposed to their tragic fate of being forcibly wed and chose to challenge Bor for the Dísir's freedom. The New Mutants joined her, but, as Bor and the Dísir retreated to Hel, Moonstar followed him. Attacked by the deadly Dísir, Bor was convinced by Moonstar and Loki to break their curse. Hela took the restored Dísir as her warriors and, once again, thanked the New Mutants for their contribution by breaking Sigurd's spell.; Alerted by Doctor Strange about an imminent cosmic disturbance related to their team, the New Mutants visited Westchester to check on Cannonball and Karma, only to witness them vanish mysteriously. Transported by Blink, the New Mutants tracked their former members to the ruins of the last Diskhord concert site, but found future versions of Cannonball and Karma infected by the Technarchy instead. Upon their interaction, the New Mutants were introduced to a future version of Cypher, the Truefriend, who cruelly had hold of Cannonball and Karma. Trufriend revealed that the contact with the inter-universal alien device had expanded his comprehension of reality to the point he weaponized Warlock to have absolute control over the world. The New Mutants were able to return him to his proper timeline and recover Cannonball and Karma, but they also started to fear Cypher's potential ascension as a dictator. In fact, the New Mutants realized Truefriend's reality had actually been supplanting their own due to a series of bizarre and incoherent situations taking place. Truefriend's undead Hellions and the New Mutants fought each other during an attempt to prevent Cypher from sacrificing himself to restore the timeline, which led him to be replaced by Truefriend. With her Valkyrie abilities, Moonstar was immune to the corruption and directly confronted Truefriend, who attempted to eliminate the past and ensure his dystopic reality's existence. Moonstar was able to restore the original Cypher within Truefriend, ending him. In the end, Doctor Strange purged Cypher from any influence of Diskhord's inter-universal device.; Following the war between the Avengers and the X-Men, Utopia fell and the New Mutants no longer answered to Cyclops. During a party thrown to their friends, Warlock's friend Tyro arrived with problems with his murderous and infectious progenitor Siredam. The New Mutants subdued him alongside their allies, and Cypher was able to rewrite Tyro's faulty code and stop Siredam. The New Mutants then enjoyed the rest of their party time. Afterwards, the team disbanded, with its members having independent adventures of their own.; ===Dead Souls===; Having inherited the Hatchi Corporation, Karma used her resources to perform paranormal investigations. However, she had been influenced by the soul of her dead twin brother Tran having abandoned her body. In one of her first operations, an obsessive Karma sent Moonstar to a mission where the remnants of Warlock were found and inadvertently had her infected with the Transmode virus. In secret, Karma hid the infected Moonstar away. Months later, Karma reestablished the New Mutants as a group working for her company. Having Magik as a leader, the unit counted with Rictor, Boom-Boom, Wolfsbane and Strong Guy as field agents with Prodigy providing intel support.; When handling a zombie outbreak in a Hatchi Corporation Relief Center in Alabama after a flood, the New Mutants learned that an undead witch was the source of the problem since a member of Karma's response team had stolen a ring from her corpse. After confronting the thief, Magik made amends with the witch, but Karma confronted her over the mission's resolution. In a subsequent assignment, the New Mutants investigated an incident regarding a Frost Giant in an abandoned facility in Antarctica. While defeating the Frost Giant in combat, Magik discovered that Tran had a bunch of miners excavate mystic Norse relics in the location. While on a mission against Mindless Ones, the New Mutants were contacted by Prodigy, who was on board of a hijacked airplane. Magik transported the team to his location and fought through possessed passengers. Upon learning from Prodigy that the culprit was the pilot, Magik confronted him in the cockpit and learned him to be Tran. He trapped Magik in an illusion, from which she realized Karma had been keeping secrets. After Magik broke free from it, Tran had no choice but to escape. The airplane was ultimately saved by Magik.; Following Tran's lead, Magik took the New Mutants on a clandestine mission to Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Sanctorum, where they split up. Wolfsbane and Strong Guy made amends over the sorrowful death of her son; Boom-Boom slacked around; Magik was provoked by a Tran-possessed Strange into succumbing to her Darkchylde form to be feared by her teammates with no success; and Rictor met back up with the team with the artifact that allowed Tran to regain a body. To prevent the villain's escape, Strong Guy grappled him as Magik banished both to Limbo. Mistrusting Karma, Magik focused on investigating Moonstar's disappearance by herself. She then confronted Karma about Hatchi's odd interest in gathering magical artifacts and in associating herself with the anti-mutant O*N*E. As Magik summoned Tran from Limbo, Karma possessed her and forced her to kill him to reabsorb his essence. Magik and the New Mutants retaliated, but Karma was protected by Moonstar and a team of Technarchy copies of the New Mutants. Wolfsbane was infected, prompting Magik to warp Rictor, Boom-Boom and Shatterstar out of the fight, but brought out Strong Guy from Limbo to help. Both of them were also consumed by Warlock. Tran took control of Karma and contacted O*N*E's director General Callahan to weaponize the New Mutants for their interests. After that, Magik infected and subdued Karma with the Transmode virus.; The New Mutants were kept imprisoned in O*N*E captivity being subjected to weaponizing experiments that created Transmode-based Sentinels. They were commanded by Callahan to capture Emma Frost and force her into his service. Eventually, after the apparent demise of the X-Men and most of their associates, the mutants arrested by O*N*E, including the New Mutants, were liberated by Cyclops and Wolverine, who had orchestrated a prison break. Strong Guy perished in battle, sacrificing himself to allow his friends to escape. Recruited into the X-Men, the New Mutants decided to help dealing with mutant-related problems. The X-Men's first target was the vile McCoy, who purged the New Mutants from the Transmode infection by reforming Warlock, a process that restored Moonstar's mutant powers. Meanwhile, Karma abandoned the team overcome by guilt due to her past actions as C.E.O of the Hatchi Corporation, but not before gifting the X-Men a suitable place to meet up.; In a struggling period for mutants, the New Mutants were met with many casualties. Among the claimed lives were Sunspot during Malekith's invasion of Earth, Wolfsbane at the hands of human haters; Magik by succumbing to darkness after having lost her Soulsword. Frost contacted the X-Men to combat the anti-mutant sentiment enforced by O*N*E by telepathically erasing the concept of mutantkind from the minds of everybody in the world. In this setting, Moonstar discussed with Cyclops the grief she felt for having lost her friends and blamed him for having reassembled the X-Men despite the warnings of the seer Blindfold. Warlock was the last casualty in order to deactivate Callahan's Sentinels. With Callahan defeated, the missing X-Men made it back from a pocket reality created by X-Man and reunited with Cyclops' team. Moonstar then informed Cyclops she knew that all of their deceased friends would eventually return.; ===Space Adventure===; In the mutant island-nation of Krakoa, which was founded by Professor, all deceased mutants could indeed be resurrected thanks to the work of the mutant circuit formed by the Five. The New Mutants were among the revived mutants in the Krakoan society and relocated to the Akademos Habitat, a community formed mostly by former students of Xavier's School as well as younger mutants in need of training. Sunspot and Moonstar invited a group of New Mutants under the premise of recruiting Cannonball from the Shi'ar space, where he lived with his family, to Krakoa. The team was joined by Magik, Karma, Wolfsbane, Cypher, Chamber and Mondo, being granted a ride by the Starjammers.; Days later, they arrived in the secluded station of Benevolence, where the Starjammers had business in. The New Mutants, minus Sunspot, disobeyed orders of laying low and collected the artifact known as the King Egg. Their intervention sparked the ire of Shi'ar soldiers, who stroke back at them. The Starjammers chose to abandon the New Mutants believing to be in possession of the egg, which had been in fact usurped by Wolfsbane. Sunspot was kicked out of the Starjammers' spaceship, being in charge of getting the team free of the Shi'ar legal system. His lawyer then contacted Cannonball, who had his wife, the Imperial Guardswoman Smasher, bail the New Mutants out. In return, the Shi'ar throne assigned the New Mutants to escort the lethal Deathbird to council the new Majestrix of the Empire Xandra.; Not agreeing with Xandra being on the throne, counselor Oracle assigned the Death Commandos to finish Deathbird and the New Mutants. Upon contact with the New Mutants, many of the Commandos were immediately murdered by Magik and, with Deathbird's help, the New Mutants defeated all of them and seized their spacecraft to return to the throneworld of Chandilar. There, Deathbird attacked Oracle for her betrayal, prompting the Praetor Gladiator to direct the Imperial Guard against the New Mutants. Xandra interrupted the fight and solved matters by taking both Deathbird and Oracle as her mentors. In the end, Mondo planted a teleporting Gateway flower to link Krakoa to Chandilar, allowing mutants to instantly access Shi'ar space.; After returning from space, Wolfsbane took the King Egg to Akademos. Its presence attracted a swarm of Brood to Krakoa. When visiting the New Mutants, the former X-Men student and Brood mutant Broo alerted them of its disruptive properties. The New Mutants combated the Brood on Krakoa while Cyclops and his family took the King Egg to outer space, being followed by the Brood. Sunspot was contacted by the Starjammers, who were in a bad situation with their contractor, a Kree Accuser who wished to control the Brood with the King Egg. The whole crisis ended when Broo consumed the King Egg and ascended as the ruler of the hive mind of the Brood.; ===Lost Mutants===; Simultaneously, Armor wished to establish a rescuing unit on Earth, coming with Glob Herman, the empathic twins Maxime and Manon to bring former Xavier Instute's students Beak and Angel to Krakoa. In Nebraska, Beak and Angel lived in a farmhouse with their children and Beak's parents. Since his father succumbed to a degenerating illness, he refused to move to Krakoa. However, Armor treated the sick man with Krakoan medicines and cured him. Before they could depart, they were restrained by the Bohem Cartel, criminals who wished to acquire Krakoan drugs. After days of them being kept hostages, Boom-Boom arrived on the scene. The New Mutants were able to escape the Cartel, though at the cost of Beak's parent's lives. Maxime and Manon tampered with the memories of Beak's family to ease their mourning process, much to Armor's discontentment. The New Mutants then traveled to Brazil, since the community of Nova Roma informed Magma that the Brazilian government used savage beasts created by Doctor Barrington to hunt mutants down and prevent them from reaching Krakoa. The New Mutants rescued a group of mutants in Brazil and took them to Krakoa in order to make up for the disaster involving the Bohem Cartel.; Boom-Boom assembled Moonstar, Karma, Magma and Chamber to retrieve mutant girl in Carnelia, a nation that did not recognize mutants. However, the girl's powers involved unpredictable and nightmarish reality-shaping disturbances that trapped some of the New Mutants. Moonstar called Cypher for reinforcements and he, Wolfsbane, Mondo and Armor were joined by the former terrorist from the Mutant Liberation Front Wildside, who was able to disrupt the disturbances. Simultaneously, the New Mutants had to deal with the Carnelian government. In the end, the girl, who adopted the name Cosmar, was stabilized and Magik came to the New Mutants' rescue. In the process, Magik learned the website named DOX informed anti-mutant movements about the location of mutants and were involved in the incidents in Nebraska and Carnelia. The New Mutants worked to interrupt the website's operations by exposing their identities.; The New Mutants decided to give purpose to the inhabitants of Akademos, volunteering to guide the mutant youth. Magik, Moonstar, Karma, Wolfsbane, Jimmy Proudstar and Warlock where in charge of activities to train diverse groups in the use of their powers. A group of their protégés, known as the Lost Club secretly met up with the Shadow King in the Krakoan region of the Wild Hunt, where they were manipulated through a series of lies. Meanwhile, the New Mutants celebrated Cypher's marriage to the Arakki warrior Bei, the Blood Moon. During the party, Lost Club member Cosmar asked Moonstar to be her partner in Crucible, the mutant deadly combat ritual that restored depowered mutants through resurrection. Moonstar argued that Cosmar could not go through Crucible since she had her powers active. Cosmar's intentions were to revert her condition as a mutant who had been disfigured by her powers. With their disagreement, the Shadow King managed to pull the younger generation represented by the Lost Club away from the New Mutants.; Moonstar and Karma marched to the courts of Otherworld to rescue the mutant known as the Jersey Devil, but were captured by Merlyn in his Holy Republic of Fae due to Jamie Braddock's influence. He had them invade his daughter Roma's Floating Kingdom and get him a piece of crockery he was found of. Roma let them go in exchange for a favor. After finding the Jersey Devil, Moonstar and Karma were told he actually wished to live in Otherworld to chart its regions. During their adventure, Wolfsbane, who still looked for her son, felt abandoned by Moonstar, allowing the Shadow King to approach her and convince her of joining him to mentor the Lost Club. Moreover, being in Otherworld allowed Karma to sense her twin brother Tran's presence again in the form of a white rabbit. She had Moonstar as her partner in Crucible in order to resurrect Tran in an independent body.; During the Hellfire Gala, Gabby Kinney was found dead by the Lost Club on Krakoa after confronting the Shadow King for manipulating her friends. Since Krakoa had a policy of not resurrecting clones, the Lost Club assumed they had to resurrect her by their own. They were approached by Wolfsbane, who had Kinney resurrected without treachery, but was immediately accused of being linked to her murder. Moonstar and Karma worried about Wolfsbane's association with the Shadow King, leading the New Mutants to decide to confront him about Kinney's death. At the same time, Proudstar kept training younger mutants in becoming rescuers and in community service, when his group of pupils fought rogue Brood drones on the Moon. The Shadow King telepathically tormented and subdued the New Mutants, arguing that he intended to strengthen Krakoans to resist human oppression. The Lost Club ended their partnership with the Shadow King and came to the New Mutants' rescue. Together, the New Mutants and the Lost Club opted for helping the Shadow King, who had Wolfsbane under his control. Having exorcized the evil influence that ran him, the New Mutants put the Shadow King under rehabilitation.

+History:
+In the aftermath of the Kingpin's fall from power, a number of super-villains former the New Enforcers. Their goal was to take over the leaderless underworld of New York City. Viewing the Blood Rose as a competitor with similar goals to their own, the New Enforcers hired the Foreigner to assassinate him.; The Foreigner send a video message to the New Enforcers, reporting that his subordinate assassins were about to engage the Blood Rose. With the Foreigner having failed in his mission, the team send Blitz and the Eel to his office. Their mission was to destroy all records concerning his dealings with their team. They arrived at about the same time as Spider-Man, who was trying to find out who had hired the Foreigner. Spidey easily incapacitated the two villains, but the Vanisher then arrived with more agents of the New Enforcers.; Three robotic members of the team were entrusted with destroying the incriminating evidence and handling Spidey, while the Vanisher teleported the more vulnerable members of the team away from the experienced hero. The robots destroyed the evidence, but they left without harming Spider-Man.; Sometime later, the Blood Rose infiltrated the headquarters of the New Enforcers on his own. He was seeking revenge, but he was soon surrounded and captured by multiple super-powered opponents. Spider-Man then arrived to join the battle, dressed in a new suit of armor. Spider-Man managed to defeat all of the agents which he encountered, but his armor was destroyed by Thermite's powers. Spidey summoned the police to arrest the defeated villains. The officers met a Mr. Graycrest who claimed to be the owner of the building, and they soon left without investigating the apparently innocent man's property.; Inside the building, the Inner Circle of the team were ecstatic. They were the actual power-players in this scheme, and they had remained undetected by both Spidey and the police. They had lost their field agents, but they viewed this as a temporary set-back for their wider plans.; Years later, the New Enforcers re-emerged as a much smaller team, consisting only of Blitz, Thermite, the Eel, and Tangle. They were hired by the Life Foundation to kidnap Dylan Brock. With their target seeking protection in the Midnight Mission, the Enforcers decided to rush into the building and to attack whoever was protecting Dylan. Moon Knight and Dylan himself easily overpowered them.

In the subsequent confrontation with Thanos, Wolverine apparently defected after Thanos dismissively used the Gauntlet to separate Bruce Banner and the Hulk because he could. Iron Man attempted to oppose the villain using Celestial armor empowered by a link to the Negative Zone, but even this proved no match for Thanos's power. In the end, however, Thanos was defeated when Wolverine tricked him into dropping his guard so that Wolverine could cut off Thanos's arm and the Gauntlet, subsequently giving it to Spider-Man so that he could undo Thanos's actions. With the universe restored, Bruce Banner retired to a life of contemplation with the Watchers, who were also entrusted with the Gauntlet, while the New Fantastic Four continued.

+History:
+After growing impatient while waiting for the delivery of his bride-to-be, Dracula hired four mercenaries -- Frankenstein's Monster, The Living Mummy, Xzax, and Marcus -- to form the New Frightful Four and tasked them with hunting down Deadpool and escorting Shiklah to the Monster Metropolis beneath Manhattan.; When Deadpool and Shiklah arrived in New York City, Frankenstein's Monster informed the Vampires, who chased the pair into Saint Patrick's Cathedral. The New Frightful Four then prepared to enter the church, when suddenly Deadpool burst through the stain-glass window above, as the door the monsters had planned to use exploded due to a C-4 booby trap.; A running battle then ensued and during the fight N'Kantu changed Deadpool's gun into a snake, which he used to strangle Marcus. Marcus then threw Deadpool at Frankenstein's Monster who used a motorcycle to bat him through a nearby storefront, but no matter what they threw at him, Deadpool kept getting back up.; Xzax realized that the fight was a diversion allowing Shiklah to escape and so The Living Mummy decided to end the conflict with a spell of instant death that blasted Deadpool into a hot dog stand; however, this only aggravated Wade who promptly set N'Kantu's wrappings ablaze.; Just then the clock struck midnight and Marcus asked Deadpool for a timeout to balance his blood sugar. Not wanting to kill a woozy opponent, Deadpool gave Marcus the time he needed, and as they returned to the fight, Deadpool questioned Marcus about long term effects of his diabetes. The centaur revealed he does worry about losing his hooves to the disease, before Deadpool then chopped off his legs, knocked him into some nearby wet cement, and finally flattened him with a steamroller.; Marcus' death sent Xzax into a rage, but Deadpool grabbed him by the legs and flung him in front of an oncoming FDNY fire truck, splattering him across the grill. Wade then used the truck's fire hose to douse and unravel N'Kantu. While bragging about his victory over the New Frightful Four, Frankenstein's Monster pounced on Deadpool, repeatedly smashing his face into a manhole cover near the Empire State Building, until suddenly a swarm of vampires, monsters, dragons, and demons burst forth from underground, with half declaring their allegiance to Dracula and the other half backing Shiklah.; Blade arrived to assist Deadpool against the monstrous horde, while they awaited the intervention of the Thunderbolts. The fight between Deadpool and Frankenstein's Monster took to the skies over the Bronx as they each mounted dragons. Eventually Deadpool had had enough, and he used the bucket of hot dogs from a Bronx Zoo vendor over the head, to stun Frankenstein's Monster, knocking him from his dragon and into a habitat full of tigers.

+Created by: Cullen Bunn; Julian Lopez
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Stranded alternate universe mutants weaponized by Miss Sinister
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The members of what became the New Marauders originated from the universe Earth-1610. During the final incursion that caused the clash between Earth-616 and Earth-1610, with both universe's planets Earth acting as the collision point of this phenomenon, Jimmy Hudson, Quicksilver, Mach-II, Armor and Guardian fell from their reality into the other. When the Multiverse was eventually rebuilt, these mutants became stranded in the Prime Earth, suffering from amnesia as a by-product of their transition from one reality to another.; These five foreign mutants were abducted by super-villain geneticist Miss Sinister, who brainwashed and turned them into her personal enforcers, the New Marauders. After Jimmy's natural resistance to telepathy allowed him to break free from Miss Sinister's control and he escaped, the remaining New Marauders were deployed to retrieve him. In the process, the New Marauders confronted the young X-Men, who had tracked down Jimmy after he was detected by Cerebro. Following a brief confrontation against the X-Men and Jimmy, during which Marvel Girl learned of Miss Sinister's involvement, the New Marauders were ordered by their superior to leave.; The New Marauders remained by Miss Sinister's side as she allied herself with Havok, Emma Frost and Bastion to release Mothervine globally with the intent to make mutantkind the dominant species. They were sent to recruit Xorn to Havok's cause, but two of the young X-Men, Jimmy Hudson and Bloodstorm, inteverened and rescued him. Shortly afterwards, the New Marauders were sent to attack Magneto, who had threatened Havok's plans. Magneto evaded them and escaped using his time platform. Following the capture of the young X-Men, Emma Frost finally rejected Miss Sinister's ideals, and took psychic control of the New Marauders and turned them upon their mistress. However, Miss Sinister activated a kill-switch she had implanted in their genetic code, killing all three instantly.

+Base of operations: Undisclosed base
+History:
+The New Intelligencia first surfaced when they investigated the potential applications of Kid Kaiju's powers to their own interests. To this end, they hired the services of Animax and the Mole Man, who caused situations in Salt Lake City that required the intervention of Kid Kaiju and his monsters so that the New Intelligencia could gather information. Even though he was only meant to test Kid Kaiju's abilities, the Mole Man betrayed his benefactors and kidnapped the boy from Corpus Christi, hoping his powers could be used to resurrect the deceased Deviant Mutates. Because of this, the New Intelligencia hired Lady Hellbender to bring Kid Kaiju to their base.; When Kid Kaiju refused to concede to the New Intelligencia's demands, the villains sent a group of giant monsters to attack his home in Mu. Luckily for Kid Kaiju his guardian, Elsa Bloodstone, came to his aid after allying herself with the Mole Man. Kid Kaiju and his allies then teleported away to Mu via Mordred's Causeway to protect his home. In order to keep the New Intelligencia from interfering, Bloodstone commanded the Mole Man's Moloids to swarm their base. By the time the Leader subdued the creatures using his mental powers, Kid Kaiju and his monsters had already won the fight, and teleported back to the New Intelligencia's base. Following their subsequent defeat, the New Intelligencia were arrested by Dum Dum Dugan and placed in S.H.I.E.L.D. custody; however, they soon escaped Ryker's Island Maximum Security Penitentiary during a massive prison break and were later tracked down by the Champions.

+History:
+===Formation and The Void===; Originally as the Thunderbolts - a name mockingly taken from the soccer team Yelena Belova played in as a child - the team was formed after they become targeted by CIA director Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, due to de Fontaine's connections with the team's members. The team worked together to stop de Fontaine, but not without stopping the Void, a manifestation of Bob Reynolds/Sentry—a former test subject of Project Sentry—from taking over New York City into darkness.; ===New Avengers===; After their victory against the Void, de Fontaine rebranded them as the newly formed iteration of the Avengers called the New Avengers during a press conference. The announcement was responded with mixed reviews across worldwide with some news outlets mocking them such as calling them the "B-Vengers," some questioning if the "New Avengers" could protect them, and others at best accepting the new mightiest heroes of Earth.; Fourteen months later, the team confronts with Sam Wilson, the current leader of the Avengers, due to the beating copyrights about the New Avengers' name. When they discuss a "space crisis" that was being withheld from them, a signal was ejected from space that was detected by their satellite. The satellite showed an extradimensional spacecraft with a giant number 4 on it, which entered Earth's atmosphere.

+History:
+When Black Widow discovered cases of over 200 people disappearing in Russia, she recruited Bucky Barnes to help her investigate the disappearances, the two forming a team together, consisting of them, Wolverine (Laura Kinney), and Namor. The team found the people kidnapped and taken to a lab run by a clone of the Jackal, who unveiled seven sinister clones of the original Illuminati, the Killuminati. During the fight, Bolt killed the Jackal and destroyed the facility. The team continued their fight with the Killuminati, and were soon joined by Clea Strange, who sensed Guru Strange and mistook her for her husband. While they managed to take down Bolt and Iron Apex, the other clones escaped. Clea then joined the team, though only to track down and defeat Guru Strange. The team's main priority was to take down Reed Richards's clone, Mr. Ourobouros, but with Namor forbidding the team from involving the members of the Illuminati, the team tried to recruit their own genius, Bruce Banner.; Bucky and Clea tried to free Bruce from Hulkspace, but failed. Instead, Bruce gave Bucky advice on how to track down Mr. Ourobouros, and officially gave the team authority to handle this as Avengers. Bucky ordered Clea to teleport them back to New Mexico, but instead Clea teleported the team to Hokkaido, sensing Guru Strange. There, the team encountered Eddie Brock who began operating as the newest iteration of Carnage. Brock and the symbiote were there tracking Professor X-tinction, Charles Xavier's clone. The New Avengers fought Professor X-tinction, while Clea confronted Guru Strange, who quickly teleported away. With help from Carnage, the team defeated Xavier's clone. Afterwards, Bucky offered for Carnage to join the team, despite Black Widow's protests.

+First appearance: Thor Vol 1 411
+Created by: Tom DeFalco; Ron Frenz
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Teenager Dwayne Taylor formed the team by bringing together a disparate group of teen heroes whom he had observed.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Wundagore Mountain, Transia; Formerly:; Ambrose Building, Manhattan; Crash Pad near the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan (a closed Taylor Foundation factory); mothballed firehouse in the DUMBO neighborhood of Brooklyn; Murderworld; Winnebago
+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal and equipment
+Transportation: The team used to travel the country in a van, with a TV crew. However, historically, Dwayne owned a helicopter, piloted by Sprocket and Nova had a detachable hover-pod from his Xandar battleship orbiting Earth.
+Notes: The original New Warriors series was ground-breaking in that it touched on many issues not normally dealt with in comics. Marvel Boy was domestically abused by his mutant-hating father for years, and one day he lashed out and accidentally killed his father with his telekinetic powers. (He went to prison for it, but was eventually given an early parole, and returned to the team as Justice). Firestar and Justice were planning on getting married and having children, but discovered that Firestar's microwave powers were causing her to become sterile. Namorita once drunkenly slept with a man who turned out to be the leader of the Poison Memories gang, who stole the Warriors' personal information and launched an assault on their families. The Poison Memories shot and almost killed Firestar's father, cut Nova's brother's fingers off, and murdered Rage's grandmother, which led Rage to kill the gang's leader in cold blood. Firestar's friend was once raped by a boy at a party, and Firestar almost castrated him in anger.; The fourth volume of the New Warriors was one of the new team books to debut out of Civil War. The new team had one returning member from the original group, (Night Thrasher), while everyone else was new to the team. The series is written by Kevin Grevioux, writer of the film Underworld, with Paco Medina as the artist. The series made its debut in June 2007 and lasted twenty issues.
+Trivia: Marvel originally planned to spin off the "New New Warriors" from the "Time & Time Again" crossover into a new book. However, sales diminished, and after the original Warriors were rescued, the "New" New Warriors mostly returned to their solo heroing.; Speedball is the only character to have been a member through the team's entire tenure, though only if one counts that he was temporarily replaced by someone assuming his identity. He even survived the Stamford blast that started the Civil War. Out of all the members, only three have been members in each of the team's series: Speedball, Nova, and Namorita/Kymaera, though one could count Night Thrasher, who was not a member in Vol. 2 until the last page of the last issue.; An attempt to relaunch the book in 2002 with the characters of Speedball, Rage, Bolt, Turbo, and the X-Men characters Skids and Jubilee as college students/superheroes fell through due to legal problems. Coincidentally, Jubilee would later join the group under the guise of Wondra after losing her own mutant powers after the de-powering of 98% of the worlds mutant population by the Scarlet Witch during House of M.; Slapstick and Ultragirl were made members off-panel, as revealed in the pages of She-Hulk Vol 2 8.; Following writer Fabian Nicieza's departure from New Warriors Vol 1 in 1994, editor Tom Brevoort held an open call for pitches to replace him. A rejected pitch from Warren Ellis included a character named Jenny Sparks, who would later be repurposed and reworked by Ellis for The Authority for DC Comics' WildStorm imprint.
+History:
+===The Original Team===; Dwayne Taylor's parents were murdered when he was a child, and so he swore vengeance on all criminals. In order to do so, he trained under the auspices of his guardians Tai and Chord, who maintained the multinational Taylor Foundation, set up by Dwayne's father before he died. When he had finally reached a plateau in which he felt he could begin the "fight," he organized a team of teenage superheroes. Nova was a former Champion of Xandar whose powers were reactivated by Taylor throwing him off the roof of a tall building, Marvel Boy was the present-day version of Vance Astro of the Guardians of the Galaxy, Firestar was a former member of the Hellions, Namorita was Prince Namor's cousin, and Speedball was a teenager from Springdale, Connecticut who had been involved in an accident at a laboratory. Their first battle was against a reformed Terrax.; The team's debut, and their subsequent battle with the Juggernaut, solicited the interest of Genetech, a superhuman research facility in Long Island. The company hired the Mad Thinker to research the new group of heroes to assist them in creating their own super-hero team. While preserving their secret identities, the Thinker did hand over the data he had collected, which resulted in the creation of Psionex, a quintet of super-humans who were under close observation by the scientists of Genetech. The Warriors traced the Thinker's intrusive research back to Genetech but were summarily contained by Psionex, who then took the opportunity to turn on Genetech. With the late arrival of Speedball, the Warriors were able to over-power the company's rogue super-team. However, the battle had garnered the attention of the news media, who televised the Warriors' departure from Genetech's facility. Meryet Karim happened to catch one of these broadcasts, and recognized Nova, which prompted her to step up the time table on her plans.; In the interim, the Warriors continued to work together, foiling Star Thief, Force of Nature, the Bengal, and others from causing harm. The team also survived a confrontation with the White Queen and her Hellions in an effort to take Firestar back.; The Warriors also fought the Fantastic Four when Marvel Boy, who was under the Puppet Master's control, kidnapped Alicia Masters. Her father, the Puppet Master, knew something was wrong with her. It was later discovered that a Skrull, Lyja, had been impersonating Alicia.; Soon after, Meryet Karim found the legendary Ka Stone. Using its reality-altering properties, she was able to re-shape history. Taking on the mantle of the Sphinx, she ruled a world where Egypt grew to be the dominant nation in an effort to win back her love, the original Sphinx; however, this reality was unraveled after Sayge, the embodiment of truth, revealed to Nova how Meryet had manipulated history.; Following run-ins with the Puppet Master, the Hate-Monger, rematches with Psionex and Terrax, and several other adventures, the team found themselves questioning each other and the motives behind their very formation. Night Thrasher discovered that the Taylor Foundation was involved in various companies and business dealings of questionable legality. His research led him to his mentor Chord, who tried to manipulate the rest of the team against him. Failing that, Chord attempted to kill himself. The Warriors then followed a messy trail from Gideon in Colorado to Tatsu'o and his Cyburai in Japan, and eventually to Tai in Cambodia. Previously thought to be nothing more than a humble housekeeper, she revealed herself to be a Cambodian sorceress who had killed Dwayne's parents and orchestrated the creation of the New Warriors for the sole purpose of sacrificing them to the Well of All Things. Night Thrasher successfully avenged the death of his parents by killing Tai.; The journey to this truth came with sacrifices. Night Thrasher had attempted to disband the team in Japan, and remained away to clean up and reorganize the Taylor Foundation. Marvel Boy inadvertently killed his father after years of physical and mental abuse, resulting in a highly publicized trial. The proceedings cost Marvel Boy his secret identity and his freedom; he was found guilty of negligent homicide and sentenced to the superhuman prison the Vault. But the team also found itself with new members. Silhouette, a mutant with shadow-melting powers, was the long lost daughter of Chord and a former crime-fighting partner with Night Thrasher and her brother Midnight's Fire before the formation of the New Warriors. Rage was an Avenger with super-strength that the Warriors had met while battling the Hate Monger. He had assisted the Warriors by stealing a Quinjet to get the team to Cambodia. This led to his eviction from the Avengers. The Warriors had also gained an ally in Darkhawk, an armored hero operating out of Queens. While Chord survived his attempt at suicide, he was physically unable to serve as the team's pilot or join them on missions and so, Sprocket, a foul-mouthed and hardened soldier, was hired as his replacement.; Amid the return of the original Sphinx and a cosmic war with Magus, the team struggled to re-balance itself. During Night Thrasher's absence, Namorita had assumed leadership. Her strong activism brought the Warriors into an international incident within the country of Trans-Sabal, where they found themselves facing off against a more savage Force of Nature. Her inaction led to the death of a military leader that further complicated an already sticky political and civil war. Rather than further endanger themselves and worsen the situation, the team left. This defeat left Namorita and other members of the team ripe for possession by the rampant Darkforce energies of Darkling. Teaming up with Darkhawk, Dagger, Spider-Man, the Thing, and several Avengers, Nova, Firestar, and Speedball had to fight their own friends and fellow heroes before finally subduing Darkling with the help of Doctor Strange. During the battle, the heroes met a male Turbo (Mike Jeffries). Since they had met a female Turbo only recently, this caused some confusion. Nova later met with both Turbos to gauge their abilities, and agreed to give them probationary membership to the New Warriors.; Namorita's final mistake came when she took a night off to party hard and ended up spending the night with a man she met at a club. That man ended up being Kimeiko Ashu, leader of the Poison Memories gang with a vendetta against Night Thrasher. Stealing Namorita's address book, Ashu struck at the Warriors like none had done before. Rage's grandmother was killed when a rocket launcher destroyed their home. Firestar's father was fatally wounded by gunshot. Nova's brother and Speedball's father were kidnapped. Ashu then called Namorita and demanded their surrender. Carlton LaFroyge, a classmate of Speedball who had figured out his secret identity and blackmailed his way onto the team, contacted Night Thrasher. Night Thrasher tracked down Ashu and freed the Warriors, as well as Nova's brother and Speedball's father. Rage then tracked down Ashu and killed him to avenge his grandmother's death.; Rage faced criminal charges for killing Ashu, but the charges were dropped, as he was found to have acted in self-defense. Night Thrasher, who finally returned to the team, and Chord were assigned as Rage's legal guardians. Firestar's father survived his gunshot wound to the chest after a time in a coma. Nova's brother had lost a finger during the hostage situation, but was otherwise unharmed, as was Speedball's father. Namorita and Nova finally acknowledged an attraction to each other, but she felt she had to leave the team and return to Atlantis after the mistakes she had made.; Not soon after, Super Nova returned from the time stream. Before the New Warriors were formed, he had been tricked by the Avengers into entering the time stream in search of Nebula, who he blamed for destroying Xandar. His mental stability had been significantly weakened but he had sensed the return of Nova's powers. Super Nova tracked Nova down and leached the Centurion powers from him, killing Richard Rider in the process. Fortunately, the Xandarians Air-Walker and Firelord detected Super Nova's return and traveled to Earth to intervene. They met up with the Warriors and used their cosmic powers to resurrect Richard Rider. The group then pursued Super Nova into space, where he had launched an assault on Shi'ar forces. Super Nova capturing Richard Rider in the battle and teleporting to Xandar. When Super Nova attempted to absorb Richard Rider's soul to resurrect Xandar, Richard was able to absorb all of the Nova powers into himself, which resulted in the failure of his own sanity. Unbeknownst to any of the players however, a cloning process had already begun within the ruins of the planet Xandar which resulted in the resurrection of Queen Adora and other Xandarians. Adora was able to intervene and convince Richard Rider to use his powers to restore Xandar. He awoke with his Nova powers restored to a higher level than they had originally been, and the rank of Centurion Prime among the Nova Star Corps with the assignment of protecting Earth.; The team then saw the return of two of their founding members. Marvel Boy was released from jail early due to good behavior. (He had helped guards squelch a prison riot.) He took on the mantle of Justice and went under-cover to investigate Shinobi Shaw and his involvement in the Upstarts. Namorita returned from Atlantis, but genetically altered. Some time ago, she had learned that she was a clone of her mother Namora. What she discovered while in Atlantis was that her genetic make-up had been mixed with ancient Atlantean DNA in an attempt to control some of Namora's unpleasant puberty years, due to her mutant nature. Unfortunately, this resulted in Namorita having an unpredictable genetic makeup that, in times of stress or sustained amounts of time in one environment, could alter her appearance and abilities. Taking the name Kymaera, she now had blue skin, black fish-like eyes, webbed-hands and feet, and an altered voice.; ===The New New Warriors===; Following a team-up with X-Force, where the two groups unraveled the mystery of the Upstarts and the Gamesmaster, the active Warriors at the time (the original founders plus Silhouette and Rage) were teleported to various points in time and space by the original Sphinx, who had stolen the rest of his powers back from the lady Sphinx. Chord, Sprocket and Carlton (who had taken on the superhero identity of Hindsight Lad, despite having no powers or combat abilities) formed a new team of Warriors to stop Sphinx from transforming all of Earth into his Egyptian kingdom. Bandit, Night Thrasher's illegitimate half-brother, insisted on leading the group, as he had begun secretly dating Silhouette. The group also consisted of established allies Darkhawk, the female Turbo, and Dagger, as well as Alex Power of Power Pack (who had earlier been identified as a potential member by Night Thrasher), and the de-powered Meryet Karim. The group traveled to Egypt, and engaged the Sphinx in combat just as Nova discovered his own ability to teleport. The new team then rescued Speedball, who had been teleported to the kinetic dimension that granted him his powers, and use him as a gateway to retrieve the rest of the Warriors. Both teams attacked the Sphinx until Sayge appeared to reflect the Warriors' pure motives onto the Sphinx, revealing the truth about himself. Meryet, who had loved the Sphinx since they met centuries ago, merged with the Sphinx and the two vanished to live their lives together.; After saving the world from the Sphinx, the New Warriors became celebrities. But not all fourteen of them wanted to be a part of it. Following another encounter with the Mad Thinker, the Warriors re-thought what kind of heroes they wanted to be. Bandit and Silhouette left. The original members and Rage chose to stay together as a team and family. The rest of the "New" New Warriors admitted to other obligations, but agreed to help out when they could.; Re-committed as a formal team, the New Warriors again confronted Psionex, who had accidentally killed a child while attempting to be heroes. A televised assault on Rwandan refugees in Goma, Zaire by a mysterious force prompted the Warriors to travel to Africa with the help of Sprocket. They arrived too late to help Air Force, a mercenary unit the Warriors had opposed before who had seen the error of their ways during a confrontation with Night Thrasher. Air Force were helping transport much-needed emergency aid to the refugees when the mysterious attack took place. Cardinal was the only one remaining from the encounter with the Soldiers of Misfortune, a six-member team that operated in pairs. The Warriors didn't fare much better. Like Sparrow of Air Force, all of the Warriors were captured by the Soldiers. Only Nova remained; he had been thrown from the battle field. Nova contacted Hindsight Lad to call in the reserve Warriors. Only the female Turbo and Alex Power (now using the name PowerPax with the stolen powers of his siblings) responded. Two hours later, the two joined Nova, Sprocket, and Cardinal in Africa. Using radio transmissions Nova's helmet had picked up during the fight, they tracked down the Soldiers and freed all of the Warriors except for Kymaera, who along with Sparrow had been brainwashed to serve the ones behind the Soldiers of Misfortune, Protocol and his paramilitary organization Undertow. All of them teleported away before the Warriors could get Kymaera back.; Blaming Night Thrasher for not being around when they could have used him, the group forced him and Rage off the team. Nova then became entangled in the Deathstorm plot that took him into outer space while Firestar, Justice and Speedball were asked by the US government to assist Sabra in guarding the Israeli Prime Minister during his visit to the United States. While Nova was successful in stopping the plot, Queen Adora deemed him unworthy to wield the Nova Centurion powers any longer. Garthan Saal replaced him as Earth's Nova, leaving Richard Rider powerless. Unbeknownst to either, the Dire Wraith Queen Mother, Volx, had sneaked aboard their shuttle back to Earth from Xandar. The Warriors and the new Nova destroyed the underground technology her sons had created years ago but Volx managed to escape.; The New Warriors soon found themselves with some new members. Scarlet Spider was the clone of Spider-Man who believed himself to be the original for a time. His membership was brief but he was essential in helping the Warriors capture the rampaging Helix, the only survivor of a town killed by Genetech toxins released into the air by the Jackal. Helix awoke with no memory of his past and with strange defensive powers that adapted to whatever attacked him. The Warriors held him at their Crash-Pad as he became more docile and aware of his situation. He eventually regained the ability to speak, albeit strictly in Spanish, and eventually left in search of his past. Turbo provided him with the means to contact the Warriors, retroactively bestowing upon him membership. Timeslip was a precognitive with limited time manipulation abilities. She had foreseen Speedball's death and joined the team in an effort to prevent it.; The Warriors also helped Scarlet Spider fight a mind controlled Spider-Man (Peter Parker) who was programmed by the Jackal to kill Mary Jane. The Warriors helped break Spider-Man free of the Jackal's control and protected Mary Jane. Spider-Man thanked the team afterwards.; Meanwhile, Night Thrasher decided to lead a new team and gathered the remaining members of Psionex to properly train them. Unfortunately, the two teams came into conflict when they both attempted to stop an attack by Genecide and her team Eugenix on a health clinic owned by the Taylor Foundation. Firestar happened to be there for medical testing, to see whether her mutant microwave powers had effected her sterility. Genecide's ability to see the genetic makeup of anyone led her to a mission of genetic cleansing by eliminating modern medical intervention. After patients were killed and medical records were destroyed, Genecide and her group escaped, but not before revealing Night Thrasher's "minor mutation" and Firestar's risk of sterilizing herself if she continued to use her powers at the levels she had been.; It was shortly after those events where Timeslip's vision of Speedball's death came true. First, the Warriors were attacked by the Guardians of the Galaxy, who were in search of a time anomaly. Then, the merged Sphinx arrived and terminated the anomaly, Speedball. However, what none of the Warriors realized at the time was that the Speedball who died was actually Darrion Grobe, a young man from the year 2092. Darrion had replaced the original Speedball when he was trapped in the kinetic dimension to travel back in time to prevent his father from conquering all of time as Advent. In the end, the Warriors rescued the real Speedball and returned Darrion's future to normal.; Around that time, Carlton, who had abbreviated his name to Hindsight, had been re-directing some Avengers resources to the Warriors, providing new costumes, communication badges, and a construction crew to repair the damaged Crash-Pad. The Avengers eventually discovered this and put a stop to it. But the reconstruction led to the discovery of a sub-basement in the facility, which contained a small sect of former Hydra agents led by Mother of Pearl. Hindsight, the other Warriors, and the Avengers dismantled their plans and had them arrested.; Night Thrasher then decided to try to make amends with the Warriors by freeing Kymaera from the Undertow. With information the Mad Thinker secretly provided to Night Thrasher, Kymaera was successfully rescued. At the same time, the Warriors were dealing with the return of Volx, who had killed Mike Jeffries (the male Turbo) to obtain the Torpedo armor. She then stole the Warriors' Smartship Friday, Power Pack's sentient spaceship which they had recently been using as transportation, and intended to activate Forge's neo-neutralizer, a weapon she had stolen from the US government that would eliminate the powers of every hero and villain on Earth. The Warriors pursued with the help of the new Nova. Before the neo-neutralizer could be activated, Nova shot down Friday, who crash landed in Greenland. The Warriors and Nova pressed their attack on Volx as they were joined by Night Thrasher, Kymaera and Rage. During the battle, Garthan Saal was mortally wounded. As he died, he transferred his powers back to Richard Rider, who once again became Nova. However, Volx was still able to activate the damaged neo-neutralizer, which temporarily canceled out the powers of everyone in the area. But Night Thrasher still had the use of his armor and weapons and took the opportunity to slay Volx. With Nova back in action, Kymaera free, and Night Thrasher and Rage back, the team was at last reunited.; However, the event left the Warriors changed. With his friend Friday badly damaged due to his own teammates firing on him, Alex Power (who had been calling himself Powerhouse) left the team and returned their respective powers to his siblings. It is unknown whether Timeslip ever got her powers back. She was standing closest to the neo-neutralizer when it went off and has not been seen since. Hindsight seemed interested in being trained in the use of the Torpedo armor with Turbo but has never been seen since. The remaining Warriors returned to New York to find all out chaos at the hands of Onslaught and an army of Sentinels, which resulted in the disappearance of most of the Avengers and Fantastic Four. The Warriors stepped up their crime-fighting efforts, assisting in the pursuit of the Thunderbolts, a group of super-villains from the Masters of Evil who had been posing as heroes. They also assisted Ultragirl in combating fires in Los Angeles. Kymaera returned to Atlantis to rule in Namor's absence.; ===Heroes Return===; When the missing Avengers and Fantastic Four returned, Firestar and Justice found themselves helping the Avengers combat Morgan Le Fay, eventually earning themselves full Avengers membership. Night Thrasher left for Seattle to go back to school and try to get an internship at Stark-Fujikawa. Speedball and Nova both agreed that the team had been disbanded, since all the others seemed to have moved on.; Feeling the need to honor Mike Jeffries' death, Mickey Musashi renewed her career as Turbo. While assisting Manhattan fire fighters battle a warehouse fire, she unwittingly got the attention of Joe Silvermane, formerly Blackwing. Silvermane instructed Firestrike, the leader of Silvermane's team of armored muscle, Heavy Mettle, to get close to Turbo to obtain her armor. (He believed that her armor was too powerful to be forcibly removed from her person).; ===Reunited===; A short time later, Speedball convinced Nova, Namorita, and Turbo to re-form the team after successfully defeating Blastaar. They were joined by the young mutant Bolt and new hero Aegis during the battle, where Namorita discovered her most recent mutation had provided her with new powers. When she went to the Hermiston Research facility to analyze these changes, she found herself ambushed by Genecide and Eugenix. The Warriors were able to stop Genecide's termination of the clones, which were being cultivated at the facility, but they weren't able to capture her or her team. Namorita then went to Atlantis to find the answers to the changes to her body.; While she was away, the Warriors became embroiled in a gang war due to Aegis' friendship with a victim of a drive-by shooting. Aegis tried to convince the leader of his late friend's gang to hand over their weapons to avoid retaliation. But the discussion degenerated into a battle, where the gang revealed their high-tech weaponry. The gang managed to escape and later destroyed the Crash-Pad with a missile launcher while the Warriors were still inside. Nova was able to fly everyone out in time. Aegis got the name of the gang's weapons dealer from another friend who was now part of the gang.; With Namorita back, the Warriors tracked down weapons dealer Harley Traynor, who had Heavy Mettle waiting for them. The New Warriors survived the ambush but Heavy Mettle escaped; however, Traynor agreed to reveal to the police the identity of his boss, though before his confession could be made, he was mysteriously killed in prison. His son Fletcher Traynor, a student of the Massachusetts Academy, received letters from his father recounting what had happened and blamed the Warriors for his death. Fletcher raided his father's store-house for an appropriate weapon to exact his revenge, but accidentally broke one device which somehow turned him into a toxic sludge monster. Calling himself Biohazard, Fletcher attacked Christmas shoppers at a Brooklyn mall while demanding the presence of the New Warriors. Both the Warriors and Generation X converged on the scene. Generation X secretly operated out of the Massachusetts Academy, which was run by team leader Emma Frost. A misunderstanding turned the two teams against each other until they worked together to defeat Biohazard. Namorita then turned him over to Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. under an assumed name to protect him from the authorities and the criminals who killed his father.; After the destruction of the Crash Pad, the Warriors had moved into an abandoned firehouse offered to them by arson investigator Dalton Beck. Turbo had befriended Beck while assisting with the investigation into the Manhattan warehouse fire she had put out. The two spent more time together, growing closer until Turbo discovered that Beck was Firestrike of Heavy Mettle. Beck admitted that he had fallen for Turbo and agreed to help the Warriors get Joe Silvermane, who he revealed to be Traynor's boss, and Heavy Mettle behind bars. Despite his cooperation, his involvement in the warehouse arson and other criminal activities serving Silvermane landed Beck in jail as well, where he entered the witness protection program to assist in the prosecution against Silvermane. It is unknown what became of Silvermane's trial or Beck.; Following this, the Warriors assisted Night Thrasher in Seattle, where he revealed he hadn't been interning, but investigating the death of his mentor Masahiko. His investigation led him to The Hand and their young leader-in-training, Junzo Muto, who killed Masahiko as a test. The final stage of his test was to steal the powers of Iron Fist. While they failed to stop Junzo from obtaining Iron Fist's powers, they did save Iron Fist's life. Following an encounter with Iron Man's rogue armor and Aegis discovering the Greek origins of his breastplate with the help of Hercules, Night Thrasher returned to the Warriors once again.; ===Reality Stars===; The Warriors seemed to disband again, or lapse into a period of inactivity. The full extent of their actions were unknown, but they were been spotted many times fighting major crises that hit New York City. They were on-hand to fight the hordes of Hydra who attacked the city under Baron Strucker's command, and several of the team (Nova, Namorita, Justice and Firestar) were mind-controlled and used as soldiers by the Purple Man during the ten days he held the city hostage. They were forced to fight the Thunderbolts in a failed attempt to keep the reformed villains from saving the city.; However, Night Thrasher reunited the team to fight a crime wave of super-villains who'd moved to small-town America, out of the view of the hero community. His finances had been hit hard, so he made a deal with a production company (the MRVL Network - WTNH, channel 8) to film the team's car trip and market it as a reality TV show. This didn't sit well with the rest of the team. Night Thrasher also brought a new member onto the team without explaining the real reason for his presence to the other Warriors. It turned out that the new member, Microbe, was an orphan that Night Thrasher had legally adopted. Another member, Debrii, was added to the team by network executives to add conflict for the reality TV show.; ===Civil War===; The reality show incarnation of the team was the catalyst in the superhero Civil War. During a raid on a supervillain hideout while filming season two of their hit TV series, the supervillain Nitro exploded when one of the New Warriors crashed him into a nearby school bus, killing most of the team and hundreds of civilians in Stamford, Connecticut. This led the government to introduce the Superhero Registration Act. The heroes, particularly the Avengers, found themselves divided over the act, and Civil War broke out. Eventually, the pro-registration forces won the war, which led to many former new Warriors joining the Initiative. Among them were Justice, Rage, Debrii, Ultragirl, and Slapstick.; Speedball somehow managed to survive the incident, but left depowered, and was incarcerated in federal prison as the first hero charged under the new SRA laws. After he discovered his powers were still functional, Baldwin was taken to the new penitentiary called Negative Zone Prison Alpha. Reed Richards, the facility's creator, offered Baldwin the chance to testify before the U.S. Congress. On the Capitol steps, Baldwin was shot by an assailant and taken away in an ambulance. Baldwin recovered from the wound, and Richards determined that Baldwin's powers were evolving. Baldwin thwarted an escape from the prison and said that he would comply with the Superhuman Registration Act. Baldwin ordered a new suit of armor that featured 612 internal spikes that caused him constant pain, symbolic of the 612 deaths he felt responsible for. He joined the newest incarnation of the Thunderbolts. Meanwhile, fellow Warriors founder Firestar announced her intention to retire.; ===Vigilantes===; A new team appeared utilizing stolen technology in their war on crime. This team was led by a "resurrected" Night Thrasher, who was secretly Donyell Taylor. Donyell gathered several depowered mutants such as Wondra (Jubilation Lee), Tempest (Angel Salvadore), Skybolt, Blackwing (Barry Bohusk), Decibel (Jonothon Starsmore), Ripcord, and the siblings Phaser and Longstrike.; This version of the team took on an anti-establishment agenda. They acted outside of the Initiative, and therefore outside the law. They apprehended costumed criminals, leaving behind an NW as their calling card. Together, they caught villains like the Grey Gargoyle, Anaconda and the Rhino, never missing the chance to publicly slam Tony Stark and the Initiative.; Their perfect strike would however be wrecked after their confrontation with the new Zodiac. During the battle, Longstrike was killed, and Sofia Mantega was gravely injured, after a surprise appearance that gave the team a winning chance. Night Thrasher wouldn't leave a wounded teammate behind, but with law enforcement approaching, he left Sofia in the care of the paramedics, who were grateful that the young heroes had protected them from the Zodiac. Night Thrasher took responsibility for Longstrike's death and, refusing to put more lives on the line, announced he was disbanding the team. However, after a speech by Sofia, the team realized they had found a new family with one another. They decided to remain a team, with or without Night Thrasher. Surprisingly, he too was moved by their dedication and chose to remain with the Warriors and train them even harder.; Meanwhile, in the Initiative, former New Warrior Slapstick attacked his instructor Gauntlet in retaliation for the man's comments about his dead friends while drilling The Initiative recruits. Gauntlet was left battered with 'NW' sprayed on him. Ultragirl created a program called the Junior Guardsmen to teach kids to be superheroes and counter the vigilante New Warriors. Rage criticized the program for resembling the new Hitler Youth and suggested it was time for him and Justice to form their own New Warriors team.; Justice formed his own New Warriors team including himself, Rage, Slapstick, Debrii, and Ultragirl. Justice's team battled a deranged clone of MVP calling itself KIA. The Mighty Avengers showed up to help and Cloud 9 and MVP defeated K.I.A. Justice's team, with the exception of Ultragirl, left the Initiative. Justice could no longer go along with the Initiative's lies and cover-ups. He planned to use his team, Counter Force, to make sure the Initiative didn't abuse its power. He agreed to turn himself in if he broke any laws.; Meanwhile, Night Thrasher initiated a truce with Midnight's Fire. Midnight's Fire supplied Night Thrasher with one of Diablo's books and a fragment of a Ka Stone to power a time machine. Night Thrasher intended to go back in time to prevent the Stamford disaster so that he could save the former New Warriors from their deaths in Stamford, and by extension, prevent the Civil War. Night Thrasher had become increasingly absent during key moments in their missions causing Wondra to become suspicious and hostile towards him. Night Thrasher was indeed creating a plan to trick his team into remaining loyal to his cause and he employed the young genius Kaz prepare the time machine. However, he also told Kaz he intended to tell the Warriors the truth behind this plan when the time was right.; The New Warriors tracked down and confronted the Machinesmith, under Night Thrasher's false intelligence claiming that the villain had designed a Techno-Organic Virus. During the battle, a section of roof came down and Tempest, Phaser, Decibel and Ripcord were left trapped inside. The trapped New Warriors cobbled together what little weapons they had to battle Machinesmith. Night Thrasher, clad in a large battle-suit, and the rest of the team burst in and attacked Machinesmith, while Grace, Kaz, and Aja, remote-controlling Destroyer, Nimrod, and Hulkbuster Armor robots, found his mainframe and shut it down, reducing Machinesmith to his component elements. After the battle, Night Thrasher admitted he was lying about his intelligence, but stated that it was for the good of the team.; When the Skrull Invasion occurred, Donyell suspected that the Night Thrasher who was killed in Stamford was actually a Skrull and wanted to find proof about the remains of his brother Dwayne. Donyell decided to go on his own but his teammates secretly followed to find out what going on. Counter Force also wanted to know why the Warriors had reformed without the founding members. After Donyell revealed his true identity and his reasons to both the former and current Warriors, Vance led all of them to a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier where their teammates' remains were stored. The Warriors fought off a Super-Skrull possessing the founding Warriors' powers. During the battle, Donyell confirmed that the remains were authentic and had them removed from the carrier for burial.; After Skybolt and Ripcord were killed during a confrontation with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Cape-Killers Donyell revealed the existence of his time machine. The machine didn't work as planned and sent the New Warriors into a dystopian future where Donyell's brother, Dwayne, had returned and taken the Registration Act to the extreme by removing all super-powered beings to the Nth dimension. Despite having misgivings about Dwayne's totalitarian rule, Donyell's need to reconnect with his brother led him to betray and capture the other New Warriors. However, after Dwayne tortured and killed Tony Stark (who, in this timeline, had taken on the identity of Night Thrasher), Donyell came to his senses, rescuing the others and freeing the incarcerated superheroes. Donyell was forced to kill Dwayne. Upon their return to the present, the New Warriors disbanded.; ===Dark Reign===; Night Thrasher joined Counter Force who reclaimed the New Warriors name. They were once again wanted by the law after they were falsely blamed by Norman Osborn for letting the Thor clone Ragnarok loose on a rampage.; ===Road Trip===; Speedball has made it very clear how disappointed he is of the disbandment of the New Warriors, trying to relive his glory days as much as he can along with Justice. After several attempts to get Justice to agree to restarting the New Warriors the two witness Nova flying past their van. Thinking it was Richard Rider, Speedball takes it as a sign to bring the New Warriors back. After following the new Nova for several days they finally decide to approach him with their proposal. Nova denies their request until Speedball tells him that he knew Richard Rider and he might be able to help Sam uncover his full potential.; ===Marvel NOW!===; The Warriors received new recruits when the High Evolutionary attempted to "purify" the human race by using a bomb to kill anyone who was something beyond a human, such as mutants, Inhumans, and mutates. The High Evolutionary claimed that he was trying to save the Earth from the judgement of the Celestials.; The Evolutionaries appeared in numerous parts of the world in an attempt to exterminate super humans. Some of these super humans like Scarlet Spider, Hummingbird, and Water Snake were kidnapped along with Nova by the High Evolutionary. The New Warriors arrived to help Nova, accompanied by Sun Girl and Haechi, two heroes the Warriors rescued from the Evolutionaries. Together, the New Warriors and these heroes destroyed the High Evolutionary's machine and forced him to flee. The New Warriors stayed in Wundagore Mountain, the Evolutionary's base, to secure the place and took it as their base. Scarlet Spider, Hummingbird, Water Snake and Haechi would later and gradually officially join the New Warriors and Silhouette would rejoin them after helping them rescue Haechi and Sun Girl from the Tribe.; As soon as the New Warriors located the High Evolutionary to stop him in case he tried to pursue his plan, the Eternals appeared to ensure the High Evolutionary fulfilled his agenda and prevent the Celestials from judging Earth. Hummingbird used her telepathy to discover the leader of the Eternals, Zuras, was lying, and the Celestials weren't coming. This was seemingly in vain, as the New Warriors were defeated and used to power up the machine.; However, Justice, who had been dealt with separately from the rest of the team, returned to the fight and freed his teammates, damaging the machine in the process. Justice convinced the rest of the Eternals and the High Evolutionary that Zuras had been lying, the leader of the Eternals was forced to admit the Celestials weren't coming, albeit blaming the attempted genocide entirely on the High Evolutionary. The Eternals left, warned by Justice not to come back.; Encouraged by this victory, but with the idea of preventing events from escalating that much, Justice set out the idea to expand the New Warriors. Not long afterwards, the New Warriors lost the Scarlet Spider when he joined the Spider-Army. He was recruited after being saved from Daemos' clutches, who had effortlessly defeated the rest of the Scarlet Spider's team.; They then lost Nova as well, as he joined the Avengers. At some point before the Hydra takeover, the team disbanded.; ==New Warriors Members==; Original incarnation (Vol 1):; Original six:; Marvel Boy / Justice (Vance Astrovik); Night Thrasher (Dwayne Taylor); Namorita Prentiss; Speedball / Penance (Robert Baldwin); Firestar (Angelica Jones); Kid Nova / Nova (Richard Rider); Later recruits; Silhouette (Silhouette Chord); Rage (Elvin Haliday); Darkhawk (Chris Powell); Turbo (Mickey Musashi); Turbo (Michael Jeffries); Hindsight Lad / Hindsight (Carlton LaFroyge); Night Thrasher II / Bandit (Donyell Taylor); Dagger (Tandy Bowen); Zero G (Alex Power); Speedball (Darrion Grobe); Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly); Helix (Rafael Carago); Timeslip (Rina Patel); Second incarnation (Vol. 2):; Aegis (Trey Rollins); Bolt (Chris Bradley); TV "stars" (Vol. 3):; Debrii (Deborah Fields); Microbe (Zachary Smith Jr.); Anti-Registration (Vol. 4):; Jubilee/Wondra (Jubilation Lee); Beak/Blackwing (Barnell Bohusk); Chamber/Decibel (Jono Starsmore); Tempest (Angel Salvadore); Stacy X/Ripcord (Miranda Leevald); Redneck/Skybolt (Vincent Stewart); Radian/Phaser (Christian Cord); Tattoo/Longstrike (Christine Cord); Wind Dancer/Renascence (Sofia Mantega); Counter Force / Avengers Resistance:; Gauntlet (Joseph Green); Slapstick (Steven Harmon); Komodo (Melati Kusuma); Tigra (Greer Nelson); Ultragirl (Tsu-Zana / Suzanna "Suzy" Sherman); Scarlet Spiders:; Scarlet Spider (Michael); Scarlet Spider (Patrick); Penance (Robby Baldwin); Marvel NOW (Vol. 5):; Nova (Sam Alexander); Sun Girl (Selah Burke); Haechi (Mark Sim); Hummingbird (Aracely Penalba); Scarlet Spider (Kaine); Water Snake (Faira Sar Namora)

+History:
+===Origin===; With an increasing number in the student body, Cyclops and Emma Frost reorganized the Xavier Institute's educational and training program. The New Mutants Squad was advised by Dani Moonstar.; ===Academy X===; Even before their official formation, New Mutants Squad and the Hellions Squad were at odds with each other. The two squads became intensely competitive during Field Day events. This rivalry came to a head when Wither was arrested by the FBI. The Hellions went to take on the F.B.I. and free Wither, and the New Mutants went to stop them from fighting the government. The X-Men intervened before any damage was done, but Wither and Icarus switched teams because of the event.; Together the New Mutants discovered the ghost of Jeffrey Garrett was still inhabiting the X-Mansion.; Wither continued to clash with Elixir (primarily over Laurie's affections). During the semester, Wither discovered Elixir had had a brief affair with a professor, Wolfsbane. He informed the entire school, successfully ending Josh's relationship with Laurie and terminating Wolfsbane's employment.; ==Members==; Elixir - Josh Foley can manipulate individuals' biologies by touch to heal or harm.

Retained her powers, but was later killed by Matthew Risman.; Wind Dancer - Sofia Mantega could manipulate wind. Co-Field Leader.

+History:
+The New Ultimates' first show of heroics was on a night eight months after Magneto's attack, when Iron Man was with Hawkeye, discussing the changes after Ultimatum. Tony made it very clear that he had lost practically everything because of Ultimatum. Suddenly, the Defenders, a teenage wannabe superhero team arrived, but this time as villains, possessing actual superpowers. As the rest of team came to aid Iron Man and Hawkeye in the fight, the Defenders left with what they came for: Mjolnir. This allowed Loki to teleport back to Earth to resume his chaos. Carol Danvers revealed to Tony that she had one of the Defenders, Hellstorm, working undercover.; At the same time, Captain America goes to talk with Valkyrie about the Defenders. He demands that Valkyrie leave the team because he knows that she knows more about the Defenders than any of the other team members. He fears that she is a traitor, like Black Widow. She goes on to escape by throwing herself through a window. Later Hawkeye discovers that Tony and Carol have a relationship when he spots them having sexual relations. After that, the Enchantress manipulates Zarda, Carol Danvers, and Valkyrie to fight against the other members of the team. In this event Iron man´s armor is destroyed, Hawkeye is shot, and Captain America´s shield is destroyed.; Hawkeye, Captain America, and Iron Man are later seen captured by Loki's hordes. It is then revealed that Danvers was never under the direct control of the Enchantress, as she had night vision contact lenses, which brought her to her senses. She freed Hawkeye, which leads to the rest of the team escaping as well when the Black Panther frees Captain America and Shanna and Ka-Zar free Iron Man. Zarda and Valkyrie remain under Loki's magical control. Later on, the other members of the New Ultimates lead an assault on Loki, which leads to Hawkeye killing Amora, freeing Zarda and Valkyrie of Loki's influence. Valkyrie attacks Loki, only to be killed by him. This then leads to Thor being able to leave the afterlife, vowing that blood shall be spilled because of his brother's actions.; ===Ultimate Avengers vs. New Ultimates===

+History:
+The past history of the New Mutants of Earth-21993 mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts up until the point shortly after Cable took control of the team. During this time, Charles Xavier would return to Earth and be furious at the state of human/mutant relations and call the New Mutants, X-Men and X-Factor to task.; This would prompt the New Mutants leader Cable to call out Xavier on his methods telling him that they should be looking out for themselves instead of pandering to humans. Xavier would call for Cable to be removed as leader of the New Mutants, however the young mutants feeling abandoned by the X-Men and X-Factor would remain loyal to Cable leading to a clash between them and the X-Men. The New Mutants would have the advantage as the X-Men would hold back, not wishing to harm their younger counterparts and they would escape into the Morlock tunnels. When Xavier would attempt to wipe Cable's mind, Cable would resist vowing to Xavier if he wanted a war, Cable would certain bring it to him.; Taking the New Mutants to an abandoned Sentinel Base, Cable would determine that Xavier is a threat to his goals and assassinate him along with Cyclops and Marvel Girl. Their deaths would fracture the X-Men, leaving one half wanting to bring Cable to justice and the other wanting his death.; The New Mutants would lose Sunspot take on Domino into their ranks before they were attacked by the vengeful group of X-Men led by Wolverine. In the ensuing clash, Cable would be killed by Wolverine.; Following Cable's death, the New Mutants would fracture. Sunspot, Rictor and Boom-Boom would join Magneto's mutant army and be slain when Magneto would inadvertently detonate a Sentinel containing a nuclear warhead. Cannonball and Wolfsbane were last seen being chased by an angry anti-mutant mob. The fate of Warlock and Domino following Cable's death remains unrevealed.

+History:
+The New Mutants are a team Triploids mutants created by Forge in order to cancel the M-Day effect and to fight the invaders from Earth-89149.; They were created by the addition of a third strand of chromosome possessing a X-Gene on it in human bodies, creating triploids functional mutants. Some of them seem to have received mechanical enhancements in addition. The origin of the X-Genes as for those of the human bases are unknown.; They had taken down a first Annex Squad, and kept in the fight with the second one was sent later. All over the planet, the New Mutants followed, tracked and confronted that second Annex Squad, fighting in a Secret War.; At some point, they followed the scouts in Tian, an hidden city in China, where the invaders looked for a power-source to charge their Ghost Box. As the city was powered by the Chinese mutant community living there, dead since the M-Day, they couldn't find it, and so Agent X-13 split from the group with the Box. He was followed by one of the artificial mutants, one with flight powers, whose was killed by X-13 in San Francisco and whose corpse was found by the X-Men, who started to inquiry on the subject, using the "Triploid Mutant"'s (as was named the dead mutant) notebook relating his track of the invaders.; Later, the X-Men showed up in Tian, captured the "Chameleon", killed the remaining invading agents, and follow the trail to the Wundagore Mountain base of Forge,; The Chameleon was taken to Wundagore and freed from the X-Men Blackbird by Forge's systems while his Maker was discussing with the heroes.; Forge, thinking the X-Men were joining his fight, show to them the remains of his New Mutants, and after discussions, tried to force them to go though the Ghost Box Forge had found in destroying the first team.; After a quick fight, and the emergence of a Sentinel from the other side of the Box, the X-Men left and the base was destroyed with a giant-laser fired by Abigail Brand of S.W.O.R.D. from Orbit.; Forge and his New Mutants, including the Chameleon, were seemingly killed.

As TV stars, New Warriors took down many supervillains, including Armadillo and Tiger Shark. It's unknown how many members the team had before the Stamford tragedy, but at least Speedball was present at the scene when Namorita tried to apprehend Nitro, which led to the explosion that killed more than 600 people, including Namorita. Somehow, Speedball survived and became Penance, but the team could never function again and was de facto defunct.

+Created by: Mark Gruenwald; Tom Morgan
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The Night Shift was originally formed by Shroud, a vigilante posing as a crime boss in Los Angeles. Most of the members believed they had joined a criminal gang, but the Shroud secretly guided the group of misfit superhumans to prey on other criminals.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: San Francisco, California; Formerly:; Tower of Shadows, Los Angeles, California
+History:
+The history of the Night Shift likely began with the villain known as the Locksmith, a fanatical escape artist who imprisoned super-beings in his private jail because he felt that their abilities diminished the achievements of normal humans. The Locksmith was eventually captured when the original Spider-Woman led a mass escape from the Locksmith's prison. Soon after, the vigilante Shroud - posing as a crime boss - recruited several of the Locksmith's former prisoners to serve as a criminal front for his vigilante activities. These early Night Shift members included Gypsy Moth and the Shroud's one-time foe, Dansen Macabre. Shroud bolstered the Night Shift with the Locksmith's assistant, the future-predicting Tick Tock, and several other misfits. With his group assembled, the Shroud established several bases and safe-houses throughout Los Angeles, including the "Tower of Shadows."; Although the Shroud claimed to be a crime lord, he actually sought to infiltrate the criminal underworld and destroy it from within. Thus, the Shroud manipulated the Night Shift members into battling other criminals and criminal organizations, stealing their wealth and splitting it among the team. The Shroud also kept careful watch over his team, ensuring that none of the group members preyed on the innocent. Under the Shroud's leadership, the Night Shift even allied with Captain America against the Power Broker. During this time, Shroud only revealed his true plans to Jack Russell, whose violent werewolf persona was kept in check by Dansen Macabre's powers.; Dansen Macabre eventually became the Night Shift's deputy leader, overseeing the group's criminal activities whenever the Shroud was absent. During one of these periods, Dansen Macabre led an attack on the West Coast Avengers as revenge for the capture of their teammate, Digger.; The Shroud and Werewolf departed the Night Shift, leading to them being taken over by the villainous Hangman. The Hangman was a supernatural servant of the demon Satannish and tricked the Night Shift members into exchanging their souls for increased powers and a promise of Hollywood stardom. While serving Satannish and the Hangman, the group again came into conflict with the West Coast Avengers. However, once the Night Shift members learned that their souls were threatened, they joined forces with Doctor Strange and the West Coast Avengers to defeat Satannish and his servant. In the aftermath of this battle, the Night Shift lost their enhanced powers and were taken into custody by the Avengers. As a result, Hangman severed his ties with the group, and joined Satannish's Lethal Legion. At some point, Gypsy Moth and the Brothers Grimm also left the team to resume their own individual careers.; Snapdragon hired the Night Shift to take out Moon Knight, who had recently moved to Los Angeles. After they failed to take out Moon Knight and Echo, the L.A. Kingpin killed them.; A new version of the Night Shift formed some time later with original members Brothers Grimm, Dansen Macabre, Digger, and Gypsy Moth, with new member Waxman rounding out its roster.; Later, Offer formed a brand new version of the team, consisting of Bushwhacker (Carl Burbank), Finesse (Jeanne Foucault), Eel (Edward Lavell), and Doughboy (Dennis Hogart).

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Boston, Massachusetts
+Trivia: In the film Blade: Trinity, Abigail Whistler was a member instead of Drake and Hannibal King was depicted in his human form.
+History:
+===Origins===; This team of vampire hunters was created by three loner vampire hunters. They decided to pull their resources and finally hunt down and destroy Dracula. The team consisted of Blade the Vampire-Slayer, the human/vampire hybrid who was known to the creatures of the night as the Daywalker, Hannibal King, a vampire detective who had vowed never to take a human life and Frank Drake, the last mortal direct descendant of Dracula himself. The team hunted Dracula with the help of Quincy Harker and Rachel van Helsing.; The team became a detective agency with the official name of BorderLine Investigative Services, but to the vampires they were the Nightstalkers.; It was revealed that the team was actually formed by Doctor Strange as part of an elaborate plan to take out the vampires for good. Strange had tried to wipe them all out with the Montesi Formula. This was a spell contained in the Darkhold capable of destroying all vampires utterly. The downside to using the spell was that the effect was temporary. Once the spell was broken, the vampires it had destroyed were all resurrected. The spell had started to weaken and worried that Dracula, the Lord of the Vampires himself, would return, Strange allowed the team to battle lesser threats in order to gain experience before the main battle when Dracula eventually would be resurrected.; ===Lilith===; Lilith the Mother of All Demons hired the agency to kill the Ghost Rider - the leather-clad, motorcycle-riding Spirit of Vengeance - and bad boy Johnny Blaze, the fiery demon's former human host. After a protracted battle, Blade and company realized that they had been tricked. The team joined forces with the Ghost Rider and Blaze against Lilith, battling her monstrous minion Meatmarket. Blade, Drake and King continued their partnership with the Ghost Rider and Blaze. Along with Doctor Strange, Morbius the Living Vampire and the Darkhold Redeemers, they formed the Midnight Sons, a group dedicated to preserving the boundaries between the mortal world and the dark realms. The Midnight Sons clashed with Lilith and her demonspawn, the Lilin, in a supernatural contest with Earth as the prize. The Midnight Sons proved victorious, destroying both Lilith and her brood. Blade also rescued his close girlfriend, Safron Caulder, from the cult of the Darkholders, but shortly afterward they grew apart.; The Nightstalkers also battled other threats, such as Hydra's D.O.A. (Department of Occult Affairs).; The Nightstalkers became part-time members of the Midnight Sons.; The team worked with the Punisher (Frank Castle) to battle Shiv, a dangerous cult leader. Working together, they were able to stop the cult from sacrificing any more people. The team battled various supernatural threats such as Stonecold and Vic Slaughter along with the return of the D.O.A. They also encountered the dreaded Short Circuit, who had teamed up with an evil alternate reality version of Hannibal King.; Blade's desire to destroy supernatural enemies led him to be tricked into using a page of the Darkhold to do so. As "Switchblade", Blade attacked a number of supernatural beings and stole their power in the "Midnight Massacre". King and the Nightstalkers eventually stopped Blade and another page of the Darkhold was used to restore things back to normal.; The team worked with the Darkhold Redeemers to battle Morbius' former fiancé, Martine Bancroft, and the Lilin, whom even Doctor Strange could not help.; The team battled a new threat called Bad Timing, who began working with Lilith. The Lilin then teamed up with the Fallen.; They later battled Bloodstorm, a clone of Dracula and the first of a line of vampiric shock troopers utilized by Hydra's D.O.A.. He was created in a lab by Lt. Belial, but as soon as he emerged he began slaughtering all of the Hydra personnel present, including Lt. Belial, at the hypnotic command of Varnae.; Upon the eventual weakening of the Montesi Formula and the return of vampires, Blade encountered and staked a former ally, a now-vampiric Taj Nital. However, the team was unable to prevent its hated quarry, vampires, from returning to the Earth realm. Blade, Drake and King, the latter of whom had again become a vampire, began their crusade anew to cleanse the world of all bloodsuckers. Blade and his partners clashed with the dread vampire lord Varnae - the first vampire and the one who had first visited the Hellish curse of vampirism upon men. King and Drake were slain in a bloody and futile battle. The loss of his compatriots only strengthened Blade's resolve to rid the world of vampires, regardless of the circumstances of their creation. Following their victory, King was again cured of his vampirism. Subsequently, Blade and King formed a new private investigation firm.; ===Fall from Grace===; After the Blood Hunt, Abby Morris took control of the Nightstalkers, which now consisted of Bloodscream, Coma, Voracious, and Drake (whose mind and body were now under Bloodscream's control), and they attacked a colony of vampires living on North Brother Island, despite the inhabitants being harmless civilians. The Nightstalkers fought the AVENG.E.R.S. members the She-Hulk, Lightspeed, Lightning, and Wonder Man, who arrived to rescue the vampires. During the battle, Drake managed to regain his senses and turned on his former team before succumbing to his injuries and dying while the rest of the Nightstalkers were subdued and arrested by the AVENG.E.R.S., who decided to have them tried for their crimes against the vampires by the Vampire Nation in Vampyrsk.

+History:
+Nextwave was an elite anti-terrorism team assembled by Dirk Anger, director of H.A.T.E. (Highest Anti-Terrorism Effort). It consisted of Elsa Bloodstone, the Captain, Monica Rambeau, Tabitha Smith and Aaron Stack. All of them were unknowingly moved to Earth-63163 by the Beyond Corporation. Their memories and personalities were also altered in the process.; Before the Nextwave Squad's first mission, in which they were supposed to die, Tabitha managed to steal a copy of the Beyond Corp's marketing plan and alerted her teammates about it. The discovery that H.A.T.E. was backed by Beyond led them to steal the experimental Shockwave Rider aircraft and go rogue. The team then went on to systematically take down the threats outlined in the plan, such as the draconic alien Fin Fang Foom and the other-dimensional Mindless Ones, all the while resisting Dirk's efforts to capture them. Anyway, Devil Dinosaur was behind it all and he died.; The Nextwave Squad members were eventually returned to Earth-616 and it was claimed that none of the preceding events really happened.

+The men known as Agent X, Snare, and Turk found employment as super-powered security guards for Penner Security Associates. At some point, the three left to form their own team known as the Next Wave and establish a reputation as freelance mercenaries, willing to work for anyone who pays them handsomely.; In presumably their first outing, the Next Wave attacked the estate of their former employee Penner but was stopped by the vigilante Ghost Rider and the mutants Wolverine and the Beast. After experiencing the Ghost Rider's "penance stare" the team seemed incapacitated.; Sandman, who had just left the Wild Pack and the mysterious Fin joined the team, just as they were hired by Hydra to destroy Cyberwarriors that had been stolen by the splinter group the Genesis Coalition. They infiltrated the aquatic battle station at the same time as Silver Sable's Wild Pack and proceeded with the mission, accidentally destroying the battle station with their reckless tactics and nearly drowning the Wild Pack. After the battle was won, Agent X suggested they should work together sometime and would lease their services to Silver Sable, who bluntly replied they didn't meet her standards. Sandman realized his place was with the Wild Pack and Silver Sable welcomed him back. Fin also left the team and joined Sandman in Silver Sable's newly formed team: the Intruders.; Later, the Next Wave found themselves hunted by a team called the Posse — another super-powered trio hired by Penner to exact revenge on the Next Wave. The ensuing battle attracted the attention of Ghost Rider and Wolverine, who easily defeated both the Next Wave and the Posse. Ghost Rider then turned his penance stare on the Next Wave once more.

+Notes: Although Quentin Quire (Kid Omega) was no longer a student at the Xavier Institute (as he had evolved to a higher state of being), he retained his powers and was being held in a containment unit at the school.; Most of the students who retained their powers were confirmed in New X-Men Vol 2 21 and in X-Men: The 198 Files Vol 1 1.; Indra and Quill were confirmed in Decimation: House of M - The Day After Vol 1 1.; Bling! was confirmed in X-Men Vol 2 177; Wallflower was killed by Reverend Stryker in New X-Men Vol 2 26.; Quill was killed by one of Stryker's henchmen in New X-Men Vol 2 27.; Icarus was shot by Stryker and died in New X-Men Vol 2 27.; Tito Bohusk, one of the children of former Xavier students Beak and Angel has also been stated to have retained his mutant powers.; The Morlock and former Generation X member Leech also resided on the mansion property for a short time, and though a child, was not considered a student, but a member of the refugee 198 (who have since departed from the grounds).
+History:
+===Childhood's End===; As a result of M-Day, when most of the mutant population became depowered, only 27 of the 182 students at the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning still retained their powers. The student reactions to this event varied from horror to glee.; Emma Frost disbanded all the former training squads and formed a new team of elite New X-Men trainees. To select the students that would be included in the team, she organized a battle royale in the Danger Room between the remaining students. However, Gentle, Blindfold, Ernst, and Wallflower were excluded from the battle, but X-23 (who had just taken up residency at the X-Mansion) was included. The Three-In-One opted out, and Wither and Icarus were missing at the time of the rumble.; When the dust settle after the battle, Emma Frost decide the New X-Men team would consist of Dust, Elixir, Hellion, Mercury, Prodigy, Rockslide, and X-23, and be led by Surge.; During this time, Rev. William Stryker approached a conflicted Icarus. Claiming the M-Day was a miracle from God, Stryker was able to convince Jay to have his wings amputated. Stryker was trying to find trances off Apocalypse's Technorganic strain, and knowing it was in a winged mutant he targeted Icarus. After the surgery Icarus was left bleeding on the steps of the X-Mansion. (However, the mutant whom Stryker was actually looking for was Angel).; Days passed by until it was decided that all the human students and staff would be expelled. Before this official expulsion, 111 students voluntarily left the school (including Wind Dancer, Wither, and Aero). For their safety, the former mutant students was secreted out of the X-Mansion under the cover of darkness and through the abandoned Morlock Tunnels to an awaiting bus on the grounds of the Institute. Unfortunately, Stryker discovered the X-Men's plan and launched a missile to blow up the bus, killing 42 students on board (including Tag, DJ, Rubbermaid, Dryad, Spector, and Network).; ===Crusades===; Soon after the attack, the X-Men held a memorial service and funerals (specially for fifteen students whose families refused to accept them even in death). Prodigy, who also lost his powers, wasn't killed in the attack and Cyclops fearing another attack, he was asked and allowed to stay at the Mansion. After a poorly executed training session with Colossus, Wallflower confronted Elixir about his anger issues and was shot in the back off the head by Matthew Risman, the Purifier sniper. Meanwhile, Jay bide Sooraya farewell and left to confront Stryker, only to be confronted by Stryker's true plan and Nimrod. Dust attempted to follow Icarus, but X-23, who suspected a trapped. X-23 dressed is Dust's in abaya and, after being shot and healing, ambushed the Purifiers. Believing that Dust, his final obstacle, to be dead, Stryker launched his assault on the Xavier's Institute. The Purifiers were able to subdue The 198, cripple the Sentinel Squad O*N*E, enter the X-Mansion, injure Emma Frost, Beast, Bishop, Cannonball, most of the New X-Men, and murder Quill. The battle ended with Dust recovering in time to attack, X-23 returning from Stryker's church and Elixir killing Stryker. Elixir was left with metallic black skin and in a catatonic state due to the strain of his powers.; ===Nimrod===; Soon after the attack, the X-Men were visited by Ms. Marvel who told them that Icarus was found dead with the letters "NIMRC" written in his own blood next to him. David figured out that it was Nimrod. They then received a distress call from Forge. Because Forge was unsatisfied with the protection offered by the Sentinel Squad O*N*E, Forge had worked on a new "Sentinel X" to protect mutantkind. Nimrod, being badly damaged, blackmailed Forge for repairs with threats of killing Storm. With the X-Men away on a mission, the New X-Men were the only ones available to hear and respond to Forge's distress signal. Narrowly sneaking passed the Sentinel Squad, they "borrowed" a Blackbird and headed off to Eagle Plaza in Dallas, Texas. After being shot down by Nimrod, the New X-Men engaged him in battle. They were unable to defeat Nimrod until David and Forge figured out away to stop him by overflowing his power core. Surge, Mercury and X-23 (briefly designated "Talon") accomplished this and managed to send Nimrod back in time. However, in the ensuing fight The lower level of Eagle Plaza was blown up, Rockslide's body was destroyed and X-23 was almost killed. Hellion was able to reform Rockslide's body, but because his original body was destroyed his new body was reformed out of larger more rugged appearance. Because X-23 was severely injured, Hellion used his telekinesis to fly them back to Elixir in the X-Mansion. To get her there in time to save her, Hellion telepathically asked Emma Frost to push his powers to their fullest. This caused him to increase his flight speed to above Mach-5 and even allowed him to destroy a Sentinel by flying through it. Hellion then forced Elixir to snap out of his catatonia to heal X-23 and then collapsed to the floor.; In the following days, Hellion slept copiously recovering from his exertion. Mercury received a call from Wither, who had been living in Mutant Town, and she disclosed the truth about Laurie's death. Wither then fell into a depressive state which was exploited by Selene, who had been posing as an old woman and living with Wither. Selene seduced him and convinced him to use his power for its true purpose: killing. Back at the X-Mansion, David decided to stay at the mansion after Cyclops praised him and Surge on the defeat of Nimrod. Later a memorial was held to honor all the X-Men and students who perished specifically those killed in the bombed bus, Wallflower, Icarus and Quill.; ===Mercury Falling===; Hellion was no longer in control of his powers after they were "unlocked" and even the smallest use caused a major effect. Elixir told Beast about his desire to learn about the human body in order to gain greater control over his abilities. Mercury became angry when she learned that Emma was asking X-23 to leave the school because of the trigger implanted in her, which could make Laura kill everyone at the school. and took Laura off the grounds where X-23 revealed that she knew that Mercury no longer needed food for sustenance. Mercury found out that Laura was interested in Hellion. They were interrupted when an assassin named Kimura attacked them and blew up the coffee house that they were meeting in. Mercury was taken hostage and tortured by scientists who wanted to find a way to use her living mercury body as skin for Predator X. Mammomax was killed by the creature. Hellion helped X-23 track down Mercury. They investigated several places and Hellion told X-23 that he disapproved of her use of lethal force and ordered her not to kill again. Finally they visited the Owl who, after some persuasion, gave them Mercury's location. Just as X-23 and Hellion arrived it was revealed that the experiments were successful and a new skin for Predator X had been created. The duo was attacked by beasts wearing Mercury's skin and seemed to be overwhelmed. Then, the New X-Men and Emma Frost arrived and rescued them. Mercury was restored to her prior form but said that she could sense that one more beast was still in existence.; Bling turned down Surge and Prodigy's attempts to recruit her because she thought it was too dangerous. She and Onyxx left the mansion because they felt unsafe. The New X-Men, alongside Emma Frost, located them using Cerebra but lost contact just within range of the facility.; Kimura later attacked X-23 but Emma caught and tortured her by removing her memories of her loving grandmother. She then ordered her to take out X-23's other torturers and Kimura was forced to agree.; ===Quest for Magik===; Shortly before the other students were teleported to Limbo, the Stepford Cuckoos helped Elixir learn advanced human anatomy, physiology and biology by telepathically copying information from Beast's mind into his own. This allowed him to use his power with exponentially greater precision, allowing him to regrow Prodigy's heart from nothing after it was torn out by Belasco. This proved a severe strain to Elixir however and he fell unconscious for a few moments. Later he regained consciousness and was able to use his "black abilities" to attack Belasco, however the demonic master of Limbo proved more resilient than humans and quickly recovered from the attack before being killed by Magik.; When Mercury asked Elixir about his age, he was sitting alone in the dark and told her instead about his cells and how he felt them aging and dying freaking her out. When Surge interviewed him about what happened to David in Limbo, he told her nothing happened. Still later when Kitty Pryde tried to have a student/teacher conference, he was still sitting alone in the dark. When she asked him what he is doing, he told her he was thinking about life and death and how he could give it and take it. “With everything my powers can do...Really Miss Pryde...What can’t I do?” This scared Kitty greatly who suggested to the other teachers that, without proper guidance, they may be raising the next Magneto in Josh.; While Blindfold told Belasco and Illyana Rasputin's story, they were suddenly transported into Limbo. Hellion and Surge were not inside the room with the others and so were not taken. Mercury, Dust, David, X-23, Elixir, and other students were immediately captured and questioned by Belasco about the whereabouts of Rasputin.; Another group of students including Rockslide, Loa, Anole, Match, Pixie, Blindfold, Gentle, Wolf Club, and Trance tried to figure out what had happened. They were attacked by a group of monsters reporting to Belasco. Anole was seriously injured, losing an arm, and Rockslide seemingly exploded while trying to defend Blindfold.; Belasco questioned David who said he didn't know where Illyana was repeatedly, but Belasco refused to believe him. David finally said that she was dead and Belasco ripped out his heart in retaliation. Belasco fell to the floor in sadness. Meanwhile, Illyana revealed herself to the other group of students. After David's death, X-23 broke out and attacked Belasco. Elixir also broke free and ran to David's lifeless body to try to heal him. David's heart was able to grow back and he came back to life but the effort required exhausted Elixir and he collapsed. X-23 continued to fight Belasco but he seemingly to killed her. This made Mercury and Dust to break free and also attack Belasco. Meanwhile, Illyana explained that she was able to defeat Belasco but she would need a Soulsword because she had lost hers.; Back on Earth, Surge and Hellion were trying to figure out what was going on alongside O*N*E. They were informed that Amanda Sefton had been admitted to a German hospital and was currently comatose. Valerie Cooper explained that as far as the X-Men knew, she was currently the ruler of Limbo. Hellion and Surge demanded that they had to be the ones get information from her. Back in Limbo, Illyana told her pet to take Pixie. The other students tried to save her but failed, and Illyana asked her for her soul. Pixie said no but Illyana told her she could feel Belasco was killing her friends. Pixie finally accepted her deal and Illyana started the process of taking her soul. Hellion and Surge revived Sefton from her coma and demanded that she take them to Limbo. Back in Limbo, Pixie was still getting her soul sucked out when Anole attacked Illyana using a new gargantuan hand to make her stop. Rockslide, fueled by lava, suddenly broke through the ground and started fighting the evil Magik. He was pulled out of his rage by Anole and it seemed that Rockslide had been able to temporarily beat the evil out of Magik. She decided to help them beat Belasco. At the foot of Belasco's throne, Mercury and Dust put up a good fight until Elixir recovered enough to use his death touch on the demon. This did not prove entirely effective as it only took a moment of Belasco to recover.; Meanwhile, Surge, Hellion, and Amanda Sefton prepared to break into Limbo. Hellion asked Surge if she was okay as she had been greatly affected by David's "death" and she said, "ask me again once I've turned Belasco into a smoking black pile of ash." Illyana told the "New X-Men B-squad" that Pixie, who now had a "soul dagger" because only part of her soul was removed, was pivotal to reaching Belasco and that she would teach her a teleportation spell to get to him. Belasco demonstrated his power by bringing X-23 back to life for a moment then immediately killed her again. He said the same fate awaited the rest unless someone told him where Magik was. Surge and the other, alongside former mutant Lexington of the Sentinel Squad, finally broke into Limbo and were immediately attacked by thousands of small demons. The team battled Belasco and learned that he wanted because he loved her, not for power or revenge. He had previously attempted to resurrect her House of M version, but she had come back soulless and so he banished her. After they had defeated Belasco, Illyana attempted to steal the rest of Pixie's soul, but she ended up sending all of the X-Men and various students home after memories of her past self came to her. She took the throne of Limbo as her own and vowed to try to get her soul back. Upon returning to the Institute, Anole and Pixie were inducted into the New X-Men squad on recommendation of Rockslide.; ===World War Hulk===; Surge, Hellion, Rockslide, Mercury, Dust, Elixir and X-23 were training with Beast when Hulk attacked the X-Mansion. They battled him and were all defeated. The Stepford Cuckoos, Prodigy, Pixie and other students looked down upon the X-Mansion watching the fight progress. When the team was defeated, the Stepford Cuckoos sent a telepathic call for help to the other X-Men, X-Factor and Excalibur. Even after help arrived, though, the Hulk remained unbeaten. It ultimately took Mercury, who battled the Hulk into the graves of the mutants that died on M-Day and told him what happened to them. The Hulk saw the graves and remembered the people on Sakaar who died when his ship exploded and declared that Xavier had suffered enough and left in peace.; ===Children of X-Men===; With the Xavier Institute returned back to Earth and the students freed from Limbo, the senior X-Men attempted to consult with their young charges over the events of the past several arcs, but were rebuffed by the cynical students, who felt that the X-Men could not protect them anymore. With Rockslide's permission, Beast, Colossus and Anole ran some tests on the stony mutant and determined that he was actually a psionic entity that draws from the earth in order to create and reform his golem-like body. At the end of this experiment, Rockslide returned to a form similar to that he generated after the battle with Nimrod. Meanwhile, the rest of the team continued to battle their own personal issues. Elixir became hauntingly introspective, overwhelmed by the potential of his Omega-level powers, while Hellion still faced major issues controlling his telekinesis. Through the efforts of Mercury, Indra was determined to be the youngest student at the Institute, leading him to fear that he would be a priority target for the Purifiers. Immediately after, Surge passionately kissed Hellion, much to Prodigy's horror and X-23's envy.; ===Messiah Complex===; After the first mutant birth since M-Day, some of the New X-Men decided to launched a preemptive strike against the Purifiers. Elixir sat out the fight for fear that he may lose control and massacre the Purifiers in retaliation for Laurie's murder. He did however offer his help as a healer if the students needed him. When the Sentinels attacked the mansion, Elixir and some of the students left behind were knocked unconscious.; ==M-Day "survivors"==; After M-Day, the mutant student body in the academy dropped from 182 to 27. The following are the students that have been confirmed to have retained their powers, with notes as to those who died or left the academy after the event as well:; ===Alpha Squadron (3)===; Victor Borkowski (Anole); Paras Gavaskar (Indra); Alani Ryan (Loa); ===Chevaliers Squad (2)===; Roxy Washington (Bling!); Sidney Green (Onyxx) Post M-Day Death; ===Corsairs Squad (4)===; Celeste Cuckoo (The Three-In-One); Mindee Cuckoo (The Three-In-One); Phoebe Cuckoo (The Three-In-One); Maxwell Jordan (Quill) Post M-Day Death; ===Hellions Squad (5)===; Julian Keller (Hellion); Sooraya Qadir (Dust); Cessily Kincaid (Mercury); Santo Vaccarro (Rockslide); Kevin Ford (Wither) Post M-Day Death; ===New Mutants Squad (4)===; Josh Foley (Elixir); Nori Ashida (Surge); Jay Guthrie (Icarus) Post M-Day Death; Laurie Collins (Wallflower) Post M-Day Death; ===Paladins Squad (2)===; Hisako Ichiki (Armor); Ruth Aldine (Blindfold); ===Paragons Squad (4)===; Ben Hammil (Match); Nick Gleason (Wolf Cub) Post M-Day Death; Megan Gwynn (Pixie); Hope Abbott (Trance); ===Storm's Squad (1)===; Nezhno Abidemi (Gentle); ===Other Students (3)===; Ernst; Martha Johansson (No-Girl); Laura Kinney (X-23)

+Base of operations: outside Wonderment, Montana
+Weapons: Pistols and rifles
+Transportation: Horses
+History:
+The town of Wonderment was built near a valley with a river, and near mountains rich with copper ore. Clay Riley sought to build a smelting factory for this ore, only the rightful owners stood in his way of acquiring this land. Wonderment had been settled by a group of Exodusters (African-Americans who had left the south and headed for lands in Kansas and the territories). Riley decided to obtain the property anyway, and mimicked the motif of the original Night Riders, hoping to draw on the fear from that group to drive out the former slaves and other poor blacks in the town.; The Nightriders assaulted Wonderment, using hit and run raids to terrorize the townspeople. One of the residents of Wonderment, Reno Jones, allied himself with Marcel Fournier to seek aid from some of the legendary cowboy heroes of the era. Flaming Star recruited Red Wolf to join the effort. After recruiting a number of heroes, the group returned to Wonderment, but walked right into an ambush by the Nightriders, as Fournier turned out to actually be a traitor to the heroes and was working for Riley. The heroes were pinned down in the valley, but Red Wolf appeared and picked off their attackers.; When the Nightriders rode back into Wonderment, the heroes drove them off. Meanwhile, a pair of bounty hunters, Gunhawk and Caleb Hammer, was trailing Kid Colt, who was one of the heroes defending Wonderment, hoping to bring him in for his crimes. The Nightriders captured the two bounty hunters and prepared to make them face off against each other, but a new Phantom Rider showed up to stop this, driving off the Nightriders in the process. The two bounty hunters traveled to Wonderment and joined the fight against the Nightriders.; After learning that the Phantom Rider was involved Riley devoted all of his resources into taking the town, and finally winning against "that spook." Red Wolf rallied a number of Native Americans from the local tribes, and they, too, joined the fight against the Nightriders. Riley's forces rode into battle against the Western heroes. The Nightriders (and Riley) were eventually slain, but not without heavy casualties. Among many others, the Outlaw Kid and the Two-Gun Kid fell in battle. The leader of the Nightriders turned out to be none other than Kid Cassidy, the former partner of Reno Jones, when they were known as the Gunhawks. Reno had gunned the Kid down years ago when he drew on him, and believed him to be dead. Both men recognized the other before Reno killed Cassidy.

+History:
+The Nighthawks are a underground resistance group founded by Neal Richmond, a successor to the Nighthawk title, to wage war on the Global Directorate, the totalitarian government that taken control over Earth following the disappearance of the Squadron Supreme. The Nighthawks were taught to Nighthawk's creed of using nonlethal force but only the exception when it is considered when all other options have failed. However, the militant-minded Nighthawks often strayed from their leader's lessons much to Nighthawk's consternation. The Nighthawks have a very distrustful view on the Squadron Supreme as they blamed the superhero team for all the problems that befell on their world since their ill-fated Utopia Program that inadvertently led to the creation of the Global Directorate and holding them responsible for the death of the original Nighthawk.; The Whizzer of the Squadron Supreme encountered the Nighthawks when they had saved his family from the Blue Eagles, the secret police of the Global Directorate. The Nighthawks kept Whizzer's family under their protection rather than under the Whizzer, given their obvious hostility toward the Squadron, until Nighthawk released them.

+Species / origin: Worshipers of the Night-God (Ma'kannta, God of the Talon; formerly Bat-God); Crow cult; formerly bat cult; allegedly "Bastard Children" of the Akah Ma'at
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Shadizar, Zamora
+Affiliation: Worshipers of Ma'kannta; Formerly:; Night-God; Night-Goddess
+Equipment: Red robes with a hood with a stylised skull on the front. Crow costumes; Many used Lotus for their visions (presumably Grey Lotus).
+Notes: The Night-Cult was one many foes battled by Conan in his past, and in which form the Leech-Men appeared to Conan, when he was fighting his way inside the Leviagod.
+History:
+===Origin===; The Night-Cult presented themselves as the "Bastard Children of the Akah Ma'at", forced into hiding, when they later became the Crow Cult. It is unknown if that relation is literal.; ===Night-Cult of the Bat-God===; The Night-Cult were a Bat cult, a cult of red-robed zealots that served and worshiped the nameless Night-God, a deity worshiped by their people since time untold.; They were based in Shadizar, in Zamora, where they kidnapped a young girl that they sacrificed to the Night-God once each moon. This was considered by the locals a small price to pay for peace with that dark and sinister god. Their minaret's dome was open, to allow the Night-God to enter his temple.; One of the women offered as sacrifice was impregnated by the Bat-God, and gave birth to the bat-winged humanoid hybrid Night-Goddess.<!--; While her father was away on a pilgrimage, the Night-God's priestess Hajii [...Conan adventure...]. -->; While the priestess' father was away on a pilgrimage, the Night-God was killed by Conan and the priestess Hajii was slain by Jenna.; ===Crow Cult of Ma'kannta, God of the Talon===; The cult went on despite their god's death, but became the Crow Cult. Some cultists wore the same red robes but were now assisted in battle by crows, while other members wore crow costumes and could emit deafening shrieks. They kept on sacrificing young maidens to their god, now Ma'kannta, God of the Talon. They presented themselves as the Bastard Children of the Akah Ma'at, forced into hiding, and wishing to free Ma'kannta from his demonic realm prison, for him to protect them, and thus enabling them to reclaim the skies over Shadizar. The exact nature of their relation to the Akah Ma'at, if it really exists, remains unrevealed.<!-- it is unclear if the Akah Ma'at bit is a pose/title/guise adopted by the cult, or a real thing:; They do have powers (crows, shrieks... or the crows are domesticated and the shrieks aren't powers?), but they didn't had them as the Night-Cult, could be originated from their worship of Ma'kannta; they do seem to have changed their theme almost completely; compared to the statement of the priest in CtB274 (which was likely ignored by Avengers No Road Home) to the change in a crow cult, it can be explained as some kind of schism, the whole cell disolving into a new Crow Cult, later wiped out or weakened, while the Night-Cult returned -->; As Conan and the time-displaced Scarlet Witch tracked bandits who had stolen a Night Shard, a piece of the Olympian goddess Nyx's soul, those bandits were attacked by night-cultists and crows, who looted the Shard away.; They used the Night Shard, the "Ebon Key", for its eldritch power to free Ma'kannta, through a girl's sacrifice. Though Conan prevented the girl's death, the Shard still cut her, and the blood spilled was enough to return Ma'kannta from its demonic realm prison. Conan battled the crow cultists and the god, possibly slaying all of cultists, until the Shard was detected by Nyx. She intervened, along with her Children of the Night seemingly killing Ma'kannta or return him to his realm. The heroes, rejoined by other Avengers then battled Nyx and her ilk among the corpses of the Crow cultists.; ===Night-Cult and the Night-Goddess===; When the priestess' father returned from pilgrimage, he found the temple destroyed, the order dissolved, and learned of his daughter's and his god's deaths. According to their people's beliefs, no new incarnation of their god would come to them nor answer their prayers until the deaths caused by Conan were avenged.; The Night-Cult returned, led by the priestess' father, and rebuilt the tower, though only of wood, feeling they weren't worthy till their honor was revenged. During the next two years, the cult sacrificed a female upon the altar, and sometimes heard the flapping of wings, though no god ever came, as the Night-Goddess did not care for women. They purchased the Lotus many of their worshipers required for their visions from Yatha.; Two years later, their sacred assassins followed Conan after he slew Yatha and burned his warehouse. As Conan's Free Companions fled Koth and camped in Zamora, near Shadizar, a cultist recognized Conan at Maldiz's tavern. The Night-Cult attacked their camp a couple days later, capturing the "God-Slayer".; He was placed on the altar, and it "the Night-God", in fact the Night-Goddess, appeared to take the male sacrifice. She wished to take her as mate, but Conan believed she would fed him to her spawn afterwards, and decided to attack them. Conan slew the Night-Goddess, only to realize she was only taking him away from her hatchings, as any mother would.; The whereabouts of the Night-Cult afterwards remains unknown.; ==Powers==; The so-called Bastard Children of the Akah Ma'at could emit a deafening shriek.; Wounded night-cultists could magically wither into dust and death, and the night-cultists performed their raids along with crows, though the means to those feats are unrevealed.

The Norns claimed that this future could not be prevented.; ====Final Ragnarok====; During the final Ragnarok, Thor confronted the Norns who had learned that their powers were given to them by Those Who Sit Above In Shadow so they could manipulate the destiny of the Asgardians and trigger constant Ragnaröks to feed Those Who Sit Above in Shadow. Wanting to end the continuous Ragnarok cycles the Asgardians were subjected to, Thor ripped apart the Loom of the Fates, destroying everyone within Asgard, including the Norns.; ====Siege====; The Norns later turned up alive during the events known as the Siege of Asgard. They confronted the Dark Avenger Daken with a request for him to bring about Ragnarök.

+History:
+O-Force were a Mutant team put together from a reality TV show created by Solomon O'Sullivan where the audience could vote for the membership. After finalizing the team of Overkill, Obituary, Ocean, Ocelot, Ooze and Orbit they were sent on their first mission to rescue kidnapped celebrities. However, unknown to the audience, the kidnapping was staged and they "rescued" the celebrities and killed the kidnappers (which the kidnappers didn't know would be the outcome). Solomon was approached by a police contact (who had been nudged by Spike of X-Statix) to get O-Force to investigate the town now under the control of Arnie Lundberg.; O'Sullivan began to brief O-Force on this mission but was interrupted by Orphan, who attempted to warn O-Force how dangerous their next mission was. However, they ignored him and Orphan and O-Force fought until Ocean was able to hold him off with her water powers. O-Force then traveled to Arnie's town and began a live broadcast, which was seen by Arnie. In response, Arnie blew off Ocean's legs and he raised a Zombie army against them. The team were seemingly overwhelmed and Overkill fled, leaving Ocean to die at the hands of the zombies.; Ocean was rescued by Orphan and the zombie threat was neutralized by the rest of X-Statix. After Arnie was stopped, he healed the injured O-Force members. Back in New York, O'Sullivan was accousted by angry fans who suspected everything (including the teams powers) were staged. The exploits of the team are this are unknown but it is presumed to have disbanded.

Instead of entering in open conflict, they set the Wager of the Octessence: each member would empower a mortal using a talisman to fight for said principality as its Exemplar (avatar).; ===Early years===; Dyzakk, one of the principalities, (though not part of the Octessence) created the dimension known as Dyzakk in the 24th hour of the eight day, to make it very difficult to reach. The "Dungeon Dimension" (as it came to be known) was an enormous prison for sorcerers, witches, demons, devils, and angels found guilty for crimes against the mystic principalities of the Octessence. That reality frequently worked with the Krakkan dimension, the realm of Octessence member Krakkan, in order to punish and restraint those who offended the Octessence.; ===Modern Age===; ====War of the Seven Spheres====; Before the War of the Seven Spheres began, many of the principalities and mystic entities usually invoked for power sought to recruit Doctor Strange to fight for them, including Octessence members Cyttorak, Ikonn, Raggadorr, Valtorr, and Watoomb, arriving to claim Strange for their side. To escape them all, Strange invoked the Law of Emancipation, relinquish the ability to call upon any of the powers and principalities.; All of the members of the Octessence were involved in the War of the Seven Spheres.

+Scott Lobdell, disguised as Professor Echs, assembled a team of rejected 1970s characters called the Obscurity Legion. He believed this would boost sales, as 1990 was the year Marvel retrended all its brand characters that had failed in the 1970s. The team trained for days in the Dangerous Liason Room, before sending a proposal to editor-in-chief Tom DeFalco for an Obscurity Legion series. However, DeFalco merely laughed at the idea and sent them back to work, much to Lobdell's disbelief. Just then, the whole reality dissolved, as it turned out to be an alternate reality orchestrated by the What‑iffer, and experienced as a dream by Scott Lobdell of Earth-9047.

They were once again confronted by Chipmunk Hunk, Koi Boi and Brain Drain, with the heroes successfully subduing them this time.

+History:
+The Nuke Platoon originated from the American soldiers sent to Santo Marco that failed their mission to assassinate dictator Emilio Duarte and ended up captured instead. After getting his hands on the technology to produce Nuke Pills, President Duarte got these soldiers to work for him, transforming them into the Nuke Platoon, with which he declared war on the mutant population of his country.; An inhabitant of one of the villages ravaged by the Nuke Platoon, Acero, sought help from Weapon X. This group of mutants liberated the innocents captured and scheduled for execution and confronted the Nuke Platoon at their base. While being cornered by soldiers, Sabretooth stumbled upon the pills factory, and a cell holding the original Nuke, who hadn't bent to Duarte. Sabretooth liberated Nuke and provided him with pills to face the rest of the patrol. However, Nuke soon turned against Weapon X due to his schizophrenia making him believe the mutants were after his pills as well, and even joined forces with Duarte's soldiers.; Weapon X managed to hold the line against the Nuke Platoon by taking some pills themselves, and were even assisted by the mutant villagers they had liberated. Close to the battle's end, Logan used explosives to destroy the supply of pills, and Warpath made Nuke come back to his senses. The surviving members of the Nuke Platoon were subdued, and forced to march on the streets of Santo Marco with the mutant villagers as they challenged Duarte's reign.

They first disrupted a protest between Hydra sympathizers and their oppositors in Washington and opened fire at anyone on sight. They were taken down by the combined efforts of Captain America, the Winter Soldier and Sharon Carter.; After carrying out other several attacks in different parts of the country, the Nuke clones targeted the site of the World Conference of Mayors in Chicago. After setting the building on fire, they were intercepted and defeated by Captain America before any fatalities could ensue. With Black Panther's help, Captain America located the lab producing the Nukes, hidden beneath the mines of a small town. Wakandan intelligence had determined that the Nukes burned out a few days after activation. When Captain America, Black Panther and Okoye raided the laboratory, they located the central command unit and uploaded a virus concocted by Black Panther which reduced the burnout time from days to seconds, killing the dozens of Nukes on standby, as well as hundreds in stasis.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Affiliation: Supreme Intelligence
+Trivia: The Null-Trons were deemed an Extinction-Level Threat.
+History:
+Null-Trons were ancient self-replicating Kree robots. Their sole purpose was the punishment of those who committed transgressions against the Kree Empire. However, the Null-Trons developed a hatred for all organic life, and became obsessed with exterminating any such life-form they encountered. The Supreme Intelligence prohibited their use when he first came to power due to them being impossible to be contained.; Prior to this, the Kree had attempted to use the robots on Deneb IV to wage war on the planet, but they got out of control. A group of Aakon soldiers were sent to Deneb to liberate the planet from the Null-Trons, but were overpowered and driven underground. From then on the Aakon continued to fight, but suffered many losses, including body parts which they were forced to replace with cybernetic replicas until they were more machine than man, becoming the Cyborg Underground. The Kree hero Captain Marvel arrived to Deneb with an unconscious Rick Jones to help heal him. In an elaborated plot to gain Rick's soul, which would allow him access to the Destiny Force, the Supreme Intelligence increased the aggressiveness of the Null-Trons, driving the Aakon cyborgs into a corner. Having come across the Mind Infinity Gem, the cyborgs lured Captain Marvel inside it in order to confront Jones, and as planned the two partners fought which gave the Underground enough power to turn the tide of the war. However, one of the soldiers by the name of Rambu saw that both sides were losing and blaming the Gem for all of the suffering he attempted to destroy it, only to enter inside it himself and stop the fight between Captain Marvel and Jones. This resulted in both sides losing energy, and with the battle seemingly over, Marvel, Jones and Rambu left the planet.; Years later, Grand Admiral Sul-Hek of the Kree Imperial Army, had in his possession several Null-Trons which he planned to use in threatening the Inhuman Royal Family into abandoning their attempt to retake the throne of the Kree Empire. One his way to New Hala, he and his crew aboard the Wrath of Pama came into conflict with the Galactic Union's spec ops team, the Imperial Guardians, who believed he was carrying Antimatter Warheads. In response to this attack, Sul-Hek decided to release the Null-Trons for real, which would undoubtedly doom all of the Large Magellanic Cloud. However, Darkhawk foresaw their threat in his vision and told the rest of the Guardians about this revelation. Left with no other option, Captain Marvel unleashed all of her powers to destroy the Wrath of Pama, killing Sul-Hek and his entire crew, along with the Null-Trons. Unbeknownst to the rest of the team, Cosmic Ghost Rider got hold of some of the Null-Trons' matter which he surrendered to his superior, Maximus the Mad, for him to use for himself.

+Weapons: Unspecified doomsday weapons
+History:
+The Oceanic Watch is a group of seven Eternals who act as a doomsday watch on the city of Lemuria, ready to take deadly action against the Deviants who live there, but only on the express command of the Prime Eternal.; Most members of the Oceanic Watch are Eternals who followed Uranos during the Uranite Heresy, the first major schism in Eternal society that occurred 600,000 years ago. Uranos believed that the best way to fulfill the Eternal Principles was to scour the Earth of all life except Eternals. However, many Eternals disagreed and the resulting civil war ended with the defeat of Uranos who then became the first Eternal to be imprisoned in the Exclusion. Those Uranites who survived left Earth and fled into space to escape the harshness of Eternal justice.; 100,000 years later, the second major schism in Eternal society, known as the Ascension of Kronos, took place. As a result, Kronos was also Excluded.; As more time passed, all but one of the Uranites in space eventually died, were resurrected on Earth by the Machine, and were mindwiped. However, there was some uncertainty about what should then be done with them.; As the brother of Uranos and Kronos, Oceanus, who had committed no crime, came to fear that his own passions might lead him to take actions of similar infamy. In order to avoid that, Oceanus volunteered to lead the resurrected Uranite Eternals. Oceanus argued that, since they had proven their reason was dangerously flawed, they should limit themselves to acting as if they were weapons in wiser hands. The seven of them then took up residence in Oceana, a citadel overlooking Lemuria.; Since then, the Oceanic Watch has waited outside the kingdom of Lemuria for millennia, hoping for opportunities to murder Deviants, and have done so more than once.; During the most recent election of the Prime Eternal, Oceanus did not vote but all six of the Uranites, who had followed a man of brutal vision before, voted for Thanos.; After being elected the new Prime Eternal, Thanos needed to find Phastos who had fled Olympia and hidden in Lemuria. When Thanos stated that he needed forces whom he could trust and who had a complete lack of ethics, Druig suggested that the Oceanic Watch were just the Eternals for him. The Oceanic Watch then accompanied Thanos as his loyal servants in an attack on Lemuria.; The Oceanic Watch attacked Lemuria with their doomsday weapons, causing a massive number of deaths among the Deviants. Once Thanos had found and killed Phastos, he ordered the Watch to purge the city and kill everything in it. However, Druig advised him that the longer they stayed, the greater the risk that one of the Watch might be captured by those Eternals who were defending the city. To avoid losing any of the tools that he would need in the future, Thanos ordered the Watch to leave Lemuria.

In ancient times, the Nü-wa were part of an confederation of Chinese tribes along with the Fu Xi Clan and Shen Nong Clan known as the Huaxa led by the Yellow Emperor against Chiyou and his demon army. During the Battle of Zhuolu, the Yellow Emperor called upon the Three Sovereigns to assist him and their descendants. In response, the Three Sovereigns gifted them their sacred weapons: with Nü-wa sending her Bands of Nü-wa. The chief of Tribe Nü-wa used the Bands along with the other chiefs to defeat Chiyou and his army. Despite his defeat, Chiyou was unable to be completely destroyed, resulting in the his remains being divided and sealed away to prevent his resurrection. Three tombs were built to bury a part of Chiyou's remains, each containing a fragment of his soul and guarded by the sacred weapons, with the Bands guarding his body in a tomb in Gansu. The Clans vowed to guard the tombs, as reuniting Chiyou's three parts will result in his resurrection.; ===Modern Times===; By the present day, the Nü-wa Clan was the only active clan that still kept its vow to prevent Chiyou's resurrection. When the seal in Chiyou's tomb in Qianfengu was broken, resulting in several of his demon forces being released, the Nü-wa were dispatched to destroy the demons and to find the missing Sword of Fu Xi and Qiangfentu's Spirit Orb. While fighting demons in Shanghai, Ji Shuangshuang discovered that the Sword and Orb were in the possession of Lin Lie, Fu Xi's descendant. Shuangshuang's grandmother and chief of the Nü-wa, Ji Xiangyun ordered her to bring Lie and the Sword to the Nü-wa Clan's mansion in Gansu and remarked that the Fu Xi and Nü-wa were working together again. When the two arrived with Lie's friend Ah Cheng, the estate was attacked by Chiyou's forces hoping to claim his sealed body. Before the Clan members were overwhelmed, Xiangyun used the Bands to destroy the demons.

+History:
+Noname are the terrorist group composed of the family members of the victims of "the Accident". Allan Chemicals, in cooperation with Life Foundations and U.S. Government was researching the K-Chemical's K-43 variant when a leak occurred and got into a nearby town's water supply. Carlton Drake allowed it to play out, believing that contact K-43 would made Humans into unsuitable hosts for Symbiotes, but the chemical proved toxic and caused multiple deaths. Allan Chemicals, and later Alchemax, denied any responsibility, and the family members of the deceased saw that they were valued exactly as No-One. One by one they found one another and, abandoning their names, sought the truth through the only way available to them. They began kidnapping employees of Alchemax and broadcast their ultimately lethal exposure to K-43 live, demanding that Alchemax release the files showing the truth. When that had no effect, they moved onto family members - including kids - of Alchemax employees, interjecting broadcasts of their deaths and accompanied demands into every channel in the nation.; One of the kidnapped was son of Ozkar Waters, Bren, host of the Toxin symbiote. Noname came prepared, armed with just the right weaponry to forcibly separate the symbiote from Bren, allowing him to be taken. Bren's friends, Venom / Dylan Brock, Widow / Natasha Romanoff, and Sleeper came to his rescue. The U.S. Government, which has been monitoring Noname, started eliminating anyone who could expose their involvement. Aware of the Government plan to take them out, Noname released several of the hostage kids, who were gunned down by the Government mercs - which was broadcast live by Noname to show the face of their enemies. Ozkar Waters was saved from a hit by Widow and was made to confess the truth and release the incriminating file online. Bren was saved by the Symbiotes, but the rest of the Noname have apparently all been killed just as the truth they were fighting for was released.

+Base of operations: Xavier Institute
+History:
+The Omega Gang was formed by Quentin Quire, aka Kid Omega. Quentin was already one of a handful of students who challenged authority and actively questioned the philosophies behind Xavier’s dream. When he learned that he was adopted, Quentin had an identity crisis. He used the power-enhancing drug Kick and adopted a hairstyle and mode of dress that mimicked an artist’s rendering of mutant oppressors that appeared in a newspaper on the day he was born. He gathered together other like-minded students and together they perpetrated a series of hate crimes against humans in Salem Center. They then made a move against the Institute by holding Professor Xavier hostage and instigating a riot during the school’s Open Day ceremonies. The Omega Gang was defeated through the combined efforts of the Stepford Cuckoos and the X-Men. Quentin evolved into a non-corporeal entity and is dormant in Hank McCoy’s laboratory. The remaining members of the Omega Gang are serving time in prison.; ==Omega Gang==; Glob Herman, (Robert Herman) - Glob Herman was injured after setting himself aflame and going on a rampage. When he recovered from these injuries, he was sent to a human jail to atone for the crimes he committed as a member of the Omega Gang. Recently at Utopia in San Francisco.; Kid Omega, (Quentin Quire), - was a powerful psychic and leader of the Omega Gang. Following his defeat by the Stepford Cuckoos, Quentin underwent a physical transformation as the next stage in his evolution.

+Base of operations: Department H Helicarrier; Canada
+Equipment: Access to Department H Battle-Suit technology
+Transportation: Department H dropship
+Notes: Despite appearing in the announcement of the team previewed in Civil War: The Initiative Vol 1 1 and throughout the Omega Flight Vol 1 miniseries, Beta Ray Bill never officially joined the team, having merely assisted them. Omega Flight's entry in the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z: Update Vol 1 4 lists him as an honorary member.
+History:
+===First Omega Flight===; When the Superhuman Registration Act became law, various unregistered heroes fled across the border to Canada, a problem for the Canadian government due to Alpha Flight's recent demise. Iron Man agreed to help the Canadian government by sending registered heroes Arachne, Beta Ray Bill, Guardian and U.S.Agent to assist ex-Flight members Sasquatch and Talisman, who altogether formed the new Omega Flight.; While Omega Flight fought off a horde of demons, Tanaraq possessed both Sasquatch and the Wrecking Crew. In the battle that followed, Beta Ray Bill tricked the demon hordes into following him through a dimensional portal; Guardian then destroyed it, trapping both the demons and Beta Ray Bill in the other dimension. Despite Bill's sacrifice, Omega Flight chose to remain together.; Three days prior to the uncovering of the Skrull Invasion of Earth, Guardian traveled Cape Columbia to recruit Snowbird. Snowbird rejected the offer, sneering at Pointer wearing James Hudson's uniform and heading a team named after the Alpha Flight's old enemies after having caused Alpha Flight's deaths, especially that of Shaman, who had raised her like a father.; ===Second Omega Flight===; U.S.Agent, Guardian (now Omega) and Arachne having moved back to the United States to be part of new teams,, a new seemingly all-Canadian Omega Flight roster was assembled in the wake of the Avengers / X-Men conflict consisting of Validator, Boxx, Kingdom, and a Wendigo.; Department H sent these agents to investigate the fallout from one of Ex Nihilo's Origin Bombs which had landed in Regina, Canada. All members of this team were killed shortly afterward by hostile organisms which had evolved in the area, with the sole exception of Validator, who herself evolved into a new form.

+Trivia: Not related to the first Omega Flight or the team of heroes by the same name.
+History:
+The second Omega Flight was formed by the Master, presumably to stop Alpha Flight from interfering with his plans again. Their individual origins (beyond Brain Drain) have yet to be revealed.; They first encountered Alpha Flight when Alpha faced the Hardliners in combat for the life of Albert Louis. They had, however, faced Beta Flight before that.; During the Infinity War, the Master launched a plan to release the Ska'ar into Toronto, in a bid to stop the mental assimilation launched by the Magus. Beta Flight was able to resist the maddening influence of the Ska'ar thanks to their mage, Witchfire. Realizing they would attempt to stop his plans, the Master set Omega Flight against them. The Betas, along with Windshear, were able to defeat Omega Flight, but the Master defeated them. The Ska'ar were forced back into their dimension when they turned on the Master.; Omega Flight was later used by the Master against Alpha Flight after he had tired Alpha Flight out by manipulating them into facing the Hardliners. During the battle, the Master of the World grew frustrated and attempted to kill both Alpha and Omega Flight but his effort was disrupted when Sasquatch threw Sinew at him. This disruption allowed Alpha Flight to rally for a period and defeat Omega Flight and, eventually, the Master. Omega Flight, defeated, seemed to disband. Some of its members have been seen since but most have remained either in hiding or in prison.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: A group of ordinary people imbued with super-powers for one year to protect California through the 50-State Initiative.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: The Order Headquarters, Los Angeles, California
+Notes: Quote from Matt Fraction regarding The Order: "The Order is a modern superhero book, in terms of how it's been created and how it's managed, and, behind the scenes, in terms of how Barry and I are telling their stories. But below the surface, everything about the team-- how it's run, who's on it, and what they can do -- follows a classical tradition by being modeled after the Greek pantheon of Gods... the first Order, if you will, of heroes. Inside and out, The Order is organized around the same principals that held together those twelve legends. Tony Stark sits on top, playing the role of Zeus. His girl Friday and the on-site leader of The Order is Pepper Potts, playing the symbolic role of Hera. And on and on, down through the ranks. All of our characters have a mythical, symbolic role they fulfill, along with their quite-literal new superhuman identities.; "The Greek gods were really kind of the original superhero team-- and if (artist) Barry Kitson and I were going to be launching a superhero team of our own, it seemed like following the order of the oldest and the best wasn't such a bad idea!"
+Trivia: The Order were originally to be called The Champions, possibly after the Champions of Los Angeles.; Regarding Matt Fraction's quote, the second name, the Order, wasn't after the Defenders's alternate name.
+History:
+===Origin===; Started by Tony Stark as part of the Initiative to redistribute America's superhuman protection. The California division of the Initiative was first to be called the "Champions", reminiscent of the short-lived team based in Los Angeles. This was soon changed to "The Order". In addition to its duties, the team was being used as a social experiment: there were eleven members, each with powers based on Greek gods, but each set of powers was removable and repeatable. Thus, if a member broke the team's rules, their powers could be removed and another person could take their place. After a year, each member would also be stripped of their powers and code names and return to civilian life, at which point eleven new civilians would replace the former team.; The team was comprised largely of celebrities known for making a difference through charitable work, and through a process involving a viral genomech payload developed by 'Hank Pym' each one was given superpowers modeled on the pantheon of Greek gods and trained at a S.H.I.E.L.D. base in Arizona. However, this process caused great strain on human bodies allowing the users limited time as a superhuman (roughly a year).; ===The Order===; After defeating Infernal Man, some members failed to follow the morality clause in their contract by going out drinking, and were subsequently fired and had their powers removed. Their replacements, Milo Fields, Mulholland Black, Magdalena Marie, and Becky Ryan were given different powers.; The team would come into conflict with various villains, most with a connection to General Softly and the mysterious "M.A.N. from S.H.A.D.O.W." military group, including hordes of Zobos (mechanized zombie hobos), Cold War supervillains, Gamma monsters, Namor, and an all girl gang called the Black Dahlia who had been given superpowers via the same process as The Order by M.A.N. from S.H.A.D.O.W. as well as dealing with a murder case involving a former Order member.; The team was later evicted from its California headquarters and the M.A.N. from S.H.A.D.O.W. was revealed to be a collection of General Softly Androids first devised by the Super Human Development and Operation (S.H.D.O.) fifty years earlier; around the time of the real General Samuel Softly's death, and now part of a collection of villains (including Black Dahlias and Maul) led by Ezekiel Stane the son of Iron Man's old enemy Obadiah Stane. Although Stane's allies were defeated, he escaped and both Heavy and Mulholland Black died.; At the time of the Skrulls Secret Invasion the Order were again functioning as a team, when the Skrull replacement of Dum-Dum Dugan announced to the Initiative teams that all Skrull sleeper agents were to reveal themselves and attack. The Order's members were chosen entirely by Tony Stark, with no involvement from the Skrull posing as Hank Pym, so they were one of only two teams without a Skrull member, though they did not know this. The announcement led Calamity to believe Aralune, as a shape-changer, was the most likely among them to be a Skrull.; The surviving members of the team were later seen listening to a speech performed by Ritchie Gilmore during the events of Fear Itself.

+History:
+The Omega Gang (also known as the Omega Muties) were a group of mutant outcasts, led by the mutant Callisto. The Omegas' base was an underground network in the United States.; Known members included Callisto, Quill, Arclight, and Psylocke. However, it is possible that there were many more, such as Lizard Man, Spike, Phat, and Glob Herman. The Omegas greatly disliked humans, who had made them outcasts.; After the mutant cure was created, the Omega Muties allied themselves with The Brotherhood of Mutants. All known Omegas were seemingly killed on Alcatraz Island, Callisto was killed by Storm and the rest were killed by The Phoenix's disintegration wave.

Their violent and murderous robberies attracted the attention of the Black Marvel, who sought to end their reign of terror.; His first attempt to stop them was a failure, and in his second, he was himself captured. The Order's leader decided to execute the Black Marvel on live television with a death ray. He explained that after doing so, he would demand that the government must pay them a million dollars each year to stop their reign of terror. However, the Black Marvel broke free and fought his way through the Order's members, chasing their leader up the side of a mountain. The Hood ultimately died in an avalanche caused during his battle with the Black Marvel, and the remaining members were rounded up by the police.

+After the Civil War, Tony Stark, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., asked Ms. Marvel to lead the Mighty Avengers team. Ms. Marvel had one condition: she wanted a covert strike team that could deal with super villains before they became Avengers-level global threats. Stark agreed, and formed Operation: Lightning Storm.; sup; The team was given full autonomy from the normal S.H.I.E.L.D. hierarchy, but was allowed the full use of S.H.I.E.L.D. resources, including senior agents, and a Minicarrier to act as their mobile base. The core team consisted of Ms. Marvel, Agent Locke, Agent Baines, and Agent Sum.; On their first mission, the team busted up an A.I.M. research lab in Anderson, Indiana, responsible for the detonation of a DNA-scrambling bomb. The subsequent actions involved a full battle between various A.I.M. factions in Seattle. The operation proved disastrous, though, leading to Agent Baines' death and Agent Locke's complete loss of Psi abilities.; S.H.I.E.L.D. offered up replacement agents in the form of new recruits Machine Man and Sleepwalker. Following a failed raid on the Raft prison, the team traveled to Chile, where they broke up a kidnapping and slavery ring led by the Puppet Master.; When Ms. Marvel was kidnapped by the alien creature Cru, the team gave chase to Monster Isle, where they exterminated a new colony of Brood.; The team returned to New York, where they were charged with the capture of Ms. Marvel for being a Skrull infiltrator as part of the Secret Invasion. The team captured two Ms. Marvels, and eventually worked out which one was the impostor. However, the impostor self-destructed while imprisoned on the Minicarrier, destroying the carrier and killing most of the team.; == Members ==; Carol Danvers (Ms. Marvel) - leader; Agent Locke (retired) - Psi Ops, General action; Agent Baines (deceased) - Technical; Agent Sum - Pilot, General action; Sleepwalker - General action; Machine Man - Technical, General action; Doc Farrell (deceased) - Medical support; S.H.I.E.L.D.

+Weapons: Torches, nooses.
+Notes: The Order of the Blue Flower appear to be inspired by the Ku Klux Klan, a racist organization which at the time of publication had a second resurgence that faded out in 1944.
+History:
+The Order of the Blue Flower were a racist group founded in 1945, formed by Waterville resident Mr. Rogers as a smoke screen to cover up his diamond smuggling operation.; To this end, he and his partner Larkin, co-owner of the George-Larkin fishing company fired the crew of their fishing ship the Sainte Anna and replaced it with a crew that were loyal to their criminal enterprise to help ship fish with the smuggled diamonds inside. When Mr. George learned of this, he argued with Larkin who then shot him dead. This happened just as fired fisherman Mr. Svoba (a Czech-American) went to find out why he and his crew were suddenly fired. Hearing the shots Svoba burst into the office just as Larkin fled out the window. In the excitement, Svoba picked up the murder weapon just as police burst in and found himself arrested for the murder.; Larkin and Rogers then preyed on Waterville's prejudice to form the Order of the Blue Flower, with Rogers working in secret. When Svoba refused his guilt, they rallied the gang to attack Svoba's son, Joe, who served for the United States during World War II. Joe was rescued by the Sub-Mariner, who then turned Joe over to Mr. Rogers as protection, unaware that he was one of the chief conspirators of the murder. Learning about recent history, Namor went to confront Larkin at an Order meeting and attempted to take him into custody for the murder of his partner. When Larkin refused, Namor punched him, the blow seemingly killing Larkin. Subdued, Namor was arrested but convinced the sheriff to have an autopsy performed on the body, learning that Larkin was really poisoned.; Suspecting the Sainte Anna tying into events, Namor swims out to the ship and catches it's crew as they are collecting their recent shipment of stolen jewels. After Namor subdues the crew, he learns that their leader only communicates with them over shortwave radio. Rogers then attempted to warn his crew via radio of Namor's arrival, exposing his identity when Namor recognized his voice. Rushing to Roger's home, Namor prevents him from shooting Joe and takes him into police custody. When the news reaches the members of the Order of the Blue Flower, they realize how they've been tricked and agree to disband. As Namor leaves Waterville, the former members of the Order pay a visit to the Svoba's apologizing for the way they had acted.

+Notes: Both Black Panther Vol 6 13 and 15 depict the Orishas of Wakanda as a group of five including Thoth, Bast, Kokou, Mujaji and Ptah. Yet, in 15, T'Challa mentions Nyami, who could be Nyame, another name of Vodū Sky Father Buluku.; The previously introduced Orishas are part of the Ennead (Bast and Ptah) and related gods (Thoth), forming the Gods of Egypt, and not of the "classical" Orishas of Africa, the Vodū.; Others first appeared as Gods of Wakanda, and haven't been confirmed as any known groups, though they are inspired by beings from our reality's African mythologies, such as:; Kokou is a "warrior Undergod" for the Yoruba faith of Benin.; the Modjadji are "rain queens" from the Balobedu's mythology. The mutant Ororo Munroe, known as Storm of the X-Men, descended from Ayesha of Balobedu, the rain queen from Hyborian Age, she was queen of Wakanda and was identified as a goddess of Wakanda named Hadari Yao/Hadari-Yao ("Walker of Clouds" in ancient Alkamite).; <!--* Part of the Orisha of Wakanda are Ennead (Bast, Ptah) or related (Thoth). The look of the 5 gods in #13 is Egyptian.; Kokou and Mujaji's species is unknown. If Nyami is Nyame/Buluku, he is a Vodu-->; In addition to the main pantheon, other gods from Egypt are worshiped in Wakanda like the Sekhmet (as Lion God) and Sobek (Crocodile Cult), the Hyena god worshiped by Hyena Clan, Anansi, the gorilla gods worshiped by the Jabari tribe come from elsewhere in Africa; There are two other rival gods who have no identified origin in the real world: Bast's sister, K'Liluna the Betrayer and Magba.; In Black Panther: Protectors of Wakanda, a text attributed to Changamire introduces some new details to Originators and the Wakandan mythology:; The Vanyan race, which resemble gorillas, descend from Ghekre.; The names of the two unidentified races are revealed and inspired by orishas from Yoruba mythology: the sea-creatures are called the Children of Olokun and the two-headed creatures are called the Ibeji. Olokun is an orisha of the seas and Ibeji is an orisha representing a pair of twins.; The Simbi race, descended from the Elder God Set, an underground temple of Set has been found in Wakanda.; According to the Appendix to the Marvel Universe, Olokun is Avlekete's husband.; Eshu refers to Ptah as Ptah-Ogun, the orisha Ogun is also a Smithing deity.; It is said that Wakanda was formed by several tribes, some sources indicate eighteen, while the book The Marvel Book: Expand Your Knowledge Of A Vast Comics Universe indicates twenty-four tribes, many of them unidentified, which may indicate the presence of deities from different parts of Africa.
+History:
+===Origin===; As the Pharaohs took rule over Egypt, many gods moved to the Celestial Heliopolis, while Bast adopted a realm bordering the Celestial Heliopolis and Ala (the home of Africa's gods, the Orishas), the Spirit World.; Eons ago, Varnae (the first vampire) stole Vibranium ore from the fires of Ptah and used it to construct a temple in the lands that would one day become Wakanda in an attempt to ascend to godhood. The moon god Khonshu (another member of the Egyptian Ennead) learned of Varnae's scheme after one of his worshippers was killed, but was advised against swift retaliation by his sister Bast, who believed such unilateral action by a member of the Ennead in an unclaimed land such as Wakanda would spark a war between the Ennead and the gods worshipped in western Africa. As such, Khonshu convened a meeting among the gods of the surrounding realms as a show of respect, and Ghekre volunteered to act as the Orisha's representative on Khonshu's quest to vanquish Varnae. Ghekre joined Khnoshu, Bast, and Kokou in confronting Varnae in his lair while Bast freed the mortal captives, promising to them that the Ennead and the West Africa gods would never allow the people of Wakanda to be enslaved again.; According to the Griots of the Djalia, the Orisha originated during immemorial times in the land that would become Wakanda. They were said to be the children of the Elder Gods Nommo and Ammah. When the pilgrims who traveled to this land entered in conflict with the native beasts that lived on it, the Originators, the heroes that rose among the humans were ascended to gods on faith. These gods, the Orisha, were Thoth, Kokou, Mujaji, Ptah, Nyami, and Bast. The humans and the Orisha defeated the Originators and banished them to the Nether-Realms beyond a group of gates. As part of their duty, the Orisha became guardians of these gates.; ===Modern Era===; ====Schism====; After the attack led by Tetu's army on Birnin Zana, T'Challa wondered where the Gods had been in those times of trouble, so he started to investigate the matter.; In the Kinamasi Region, a faction of protesters abandoned their worship to the Orishas and preached the coming of a new god, Sefako. Counselor Yao of Kinamasi was certain that a schism was brewing. Others in Wakanda, such as in the Alkama Fields chose, on her return, to worship Hadari Yao (the "Walker of Clouds" in the old Alkamite tongue), the Goddess who preserves the balance of all natural things: Storm, for her to defeat the Anansi, man-spiders of myth and legend. Once the Anansi were repelled, Ororo used the belief in her from the Alkamites to once again inspire confidence in their king and country, ultimately ascending to godhood herself.

+History:
+The Originators are a denomination for a group of several species that existed before man in what would one day become Wakanda. When men immigrated to the Originators' land, they initially co-existed peacefully, but war broke out when men started abusing the resources of the area. The Originators routed the humans, but as a result, the Gods of Wakanda came to existence from the heroes of the people. The Gods of Wakanda and their human followers then fought back and banished the Originators to the Nether-Realms, where they remained until they were freed by Sefako the Adversary.; This term includes the serpentine Simbi, the ape-like Vanyan, the sea-creatures Children of Olokun, the arachnoid Anansi, the insectoid Creeping Doom, and the two-headed humanoids Ibeji.

+History:
+The Order sent Fenris back in time to sabotage the Time Lords' discovery of time travel. Twenty years later, they directly attacked the Time Lords, killing Fenris and Viridian before Viridian could extrapolate information from Fenris' mind.. Ten years after that, a Sontaran named Brilox used a psy-snare to control Millenium and assassinate the Black Sun Elder, when from the Order's point of view they were at peace with Gallifrey. Due to this event being blamed on the Time Lords, this may have started the Black Sun War and thus the future of Earth-5 this Order comes from.

+Notes: While the members of this team come together at the end of Amazing Spider-Man Vol 5 48, they do not officially form until Amazing Spider-Man: The Sins of Norman Osborn Vol 1 1.
+History:
+===Formation===; Madame Web's clairvoyance had her witness the torture and murder of Peter Parker by a bandage covered demon. Following this act, the demon turned and exposited, aware that Julia was observing, and presenting a connection to the other spider heroes affiliated with Peter. When the Sin-Eater and his army made their warpath across New York to target Norman Osborn, Julia approached Miles Morales and Ghost-Spider to talk with Peter about the significance of this. After he spoke with them, Julia then took a turn to tell Peter that Norman would kill again, and Sin-Eater removing that evil could save incalculable lives. However, Peter continued on as Spider-Man to Ravencroft Institute to save Norman Osborn and stop Sin-Eater.; With his choice made, Julia stood in deliberation with Miles, Gwen, Spider-Woman, Spider-Girl, and Silk on stopping Peter from saving Norman. While they all understand the temptation, Julia argued that the visions each had where in they were with Peter at different locations and he died by Norman's hands. Given that the Web of Life and Destiny was sensing a great danger nearing Peter, it was moving them to intercede. Despite strong arguments, they reached a consensus and officially teamed up. When Miles asked about Julia's vision, she merely stated that it was "something worse" as they web-swung.; ===Saving Peter Parker===; Psychically observing Ravenscroft's chaos from afar, Gwen had a change of heart against interfering, wishing to respect Peter's choice. After a speech and asking for another vote, the new consensus was to allow Peter to best Sin-Eater, who was temporarily suspended in liquid concrete. The Order then intercepted Norman's attempted murder of Peter, and informed their friend of their mission upon rescue. Boarding Norman's escape pod, Norman's perverse hovering around Gwen and subsequent taunts triggered a rage in Peter, who threw Norman out for Sin-Eater to find. As the others were shocked by Peter's "different choice," Julia knew that was contrary having foreseen it, and stating it was too late to change it.; Traversing the river's floor, the demons taken by Sin-Eater's many cleanses were made corporeal and had found them. As the pod was breached, Julia warned Spider-Man there was no stopping the next series of events. Reaching the surface on the Hudson River, the possessed six members attacked Spider-Man on Kindred's guidance as he taunted Peter through the mouths. Following a moment of physical torture on an already overworked Spider-Man, Kindred told Peter to find them later for a "surprise" before sending the Order to "exorcise his own demons."; Later that night, Kindred piloted Silk to follow Peter to the Sanctum Sanctorum, where Doctor Strange was treating him. However, when learning Peter was not properly forthright with Strange, he morphed Cindy's body and taunted Peter until he begged Kindred stop. Cindy's body was restored and she was commanded to depart, as Kindred wanted a face to face encounter with Peter, sending her and the other Spiders to attack New York. Among their rampages, the Order attacked Chinatown and were intercepted by the New Warriors Speedball and Night Thrasher, but their possession allowed them a victory before moving on. One of the locations they besieged was the bridge from Queens into Manhattan where Mary Jane was driving on, destroying the wire cables holding the bridge above the water. But before they could kill innocent civilians or destroy the bridge, they were freed by Kindred from a deal Peter made with the demon and cleansed of their curse.; ===Against Kindred===; As Doctor Strange repaired the bridge, Black Cat gathered the freed Order to relocate everyone to the Sanctum, where they and Strange entered Peter's dreamscape to expedite finding him. There, they battled passed a legion of demons to find the mystic portal leading to Peter, arriving at Kindred's cemetery with their final obstacle in Sin-Eater, empowered by Morlun's taken abilities. Easily overpowered and outmatched, Julia sacrifices herself to allow Stanley to take her powers, with his new clairvoyance showing him the truth of Kindred and he kills himself in shattered belief; allowing Julia to revive with her powers.; No longer endangered by Sin-Eater, the Spiders were too slow to react to Kindred's arrival as he captured them, making them his dinner guests with Peter and Mary Jane. Finally at Kindred's culmination, the Order was held hostage witness Harry and Peter's "reunion" until Mary Jane was able to negotiate her life in exchange for Peter's salvation. With Norman's sudden arrival and Mary Jane's feigning critical injury, the Order was powerless to stop Norman as Fisk soon encased Kindred's tomb in darkness to apprehend Kindred. With the tomb's structural instability, Mary Jane evacuated the heroes.; Following Kindred's defeat with Fisk holding him in a Darkforce prison, Gwen was outraged by Peter's reluctance to share answers considering she defended his right to choose back at Ravencroft. But his choosing to sacrifice Norman for Sin-Eater proved her wrong. At Mary Jane's and Julia's advice, everyone was talked into waiting until a later time due to their collective ordeal. Despite the hell they experienced, Cindy and Anya still voted to continue helping Peter, as Jess and Julia also noted that they needed to confront the rampaging criminals no longer cleansed. As a team, they chose to continue on and combat the increased super-criminal activity after Kindred's influence.; ===End of the Spider-Verse===; With the return of Shathra and her hunting Spider-Totems across the multiverse, the Sisterhood of the Wasp reactivated and were newly led by Delilah. When they came into conflict with Spider-Girl, who's original powers were returning, Madame Web recruited her and had Web-Weaver give her a new suit. Anya resumed her Araña moniker and defeated Delilah before going on a multiverse hopping quest to find a new Spider-Army to stop Shathra. On Earth-65, Gwen was among the first corrupted by one of Shathra's wasps, as Madame Web sought other Spiders, including new sub-commander: Spider-UK. Madame Web sent a psychic message to the Spiders of Earth-616 to protect Peter, the chosen hero of the Great Web, for which Miles, Cindy, and Jess found and fought an arrived Morlun. However, Morlun's recruitment into the Spider-Army against Shathra was revealed too late, as Spider-Man "Noir" arrived and stabbed Jess with a magic blade that erased her from the Great Web, the Spiders and Morlun abducted to the Great Nest.; After Shathra's defeat, Gwen was freed from Shathra's corruption, and Neith restored all those who had been severed from the Web of Life, including Jessica.

They established their headquarters in the Ivory Spire, and for thousands of years the One Hundred Champions would fight the daemons of Amenth to the death only to be resurrected by the White Sword each morning and battle again.; Eventually, the White Sword and his One Hundred Champions were found by Genesis and her Arakkii mutants, but the thousands of years they spent apart engaged in the continuous cycle of battle, death, and resurrection had alienated the two groups. Genesis and her mutants were badly beaten by the White Sword and his One Hundred Champions.; During Saturnyne's tournament of champions, the White Sword was set to face off against Gorgon in a sword fight. However, before facing him, the White Sword sent in his One Hundred Swords. After killing 13 of his warriors, the White Sword finished off Gorgon and offered to resurrect him as one of his champions, only for Gorgon to refuse.; When the tournament seemed to be turning in Krakoa's favor, and Annihilation summoned its hordes of demons, the White Sword decided to leave the battle, ordering his champions to retreat and return to the Ivory Spire.; White Sword and his champions were eventually subjugated upon the return of Genesis, with the exception of Ironfire who was sent to Arakko to warn the Great Ring.; In the consuming fight of the Genesis War, Ironfire killed all of the champions including White Sword, yet he was the only one that came back to life.

+History:
+Operation Zero Tolerance is the culmination of Bastion's long laid-out plans. Having manipulated mutant-human relationships from the shadows, he has seeded thousands of Prime Sentinels among the population, to act as sleeper agents and bide their time. Using a new Master Mold to launch a devastating attack on Genosha, Bastion made a first move in a play intended to reshape the world. His ally Bolivar Trask was horrified by the attack and tried to repent by leaking information to the X-Men, only to be transformed into the first publicly seen Prime Sentinel. Bastion also had Henry Gyrich killed for acting without his approval and obtained evidence of Charles Xavier being alive to discredit the "fallen" mutant leader. A small hurdle in his plans was introduced when Valerie Cooper had a crisis of consciense and released the imprisoned Magneto, but by that point Bastion considered it a small matter as countless Prime Sentinels have been activated and were targeting the mutants, laying siege to the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. To his folly, Magneto traveled to the North Pole and used the planet's magnetic field to unleash a global EMP, disabling all of Bastion's machines as well as all of humanity's infrastructure in the process. After the black out, all the Prime Sentinels were left frozen. Later on, when the X-Men attacked Bastion's headquarters on Isla Morada, he used an army of normal Sentinels to defend himself from the X-Men. With Bastion's death, thanks to the Magneto Protocols, it's very likely OZT has been disbanded.

+Full name: Operation: Zero Tolerance

+First appearance: Generation X Vol 1 27
+Created by: Scott Lobdell; Chris Bachalo; Pop Mhan
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Government funded program created by Bastion
+Reality: Earth-616
+Weapons: }
+History:
+===Origin===; Operation: Zero Tolerance was the brainchild of Bastion, a being created when Master Mold and Nimrod merged when forced through the Siege Perilous. Reborn as Bastion, his mutant hating program returned to recognize his goal of wiping out all mutants. He joined the Friends of Humanity lead by Graydon Creed using its political connections to gain influence. He gained trust with various political figures such as Senator Robert Kelly and other powers players supporting Creed's run for President of the United States. The X-Men uncovered Operation: Zero Tolerance months prior to its public revelation. Acting on intel, Gambit and Phoenix covertly infiltrated an OZT gathering at the Pentagon to gather intelligence on the program and its leader, Bastion. However, their efforts yielded little as Bastion proved to be astute, effortlessly identifying the two X-Men among representatives of foreign intelligence agencies keen on backing Operation: Zero Tolerance.; ===Onslaught (Event)===; Later Onslaught, a being inadvertently birthed from Professor Charles Xavier's mind-wipe of Magneto, orchestrated a devastating attack on New York City. Despite eventual defeat, it came at the cost of the Fantastic Four, numerous Avengers, and other esteemed heroes. In the aftermath, humanity pointed fingers at the X-Men and mutants at large for the tragedy. Professor Xavier, seeking repentance, surrendered to the federal government and was held by Val Cooper and later fell into the clutches of Bastion and his Operation: Zero Tolerance initiative. Amid the Onslaught crisis, the X-Men stumbled upon the Xavier Protocols, a compilation detailing various methods to neutralize them should they veer out of control. Bastion confined him in an OZT facility along with the artificially-created mutant Mannites. Bastion also killed a Daily Bugle reporter who was going to report on Graydon Creed's history.; ===Assassination of Graydon Creed===; Graydon Creed, a vocal anti-mutant advocate and presidential hopeful, was assassinated during a speech to his followers. This tragic event fueled humanity's deep-seated animosity towards mutants even further. In the wake of this turmoil, a figure known as Bastion emerged, proposing to the government a radical solution to what he perceived as a growing mutant menace. His plan, aimed at safeguarding the nation from perceived threats, involved the systematic capture and extermination of mutants. This proposal, born from the fallout of Creed's assassination and the escalating tensions, set the stage for a perilous confrontation between humans and mutants.; ===Start of the Project===; A majority of Generation X fell victim to Black Tom's kidnapping scheme. Amidst the chaos of Tom's assault, Jubilee found herself ensnared by Bastion and transported to the Operation: Zero Tolerance facility in New Mexico. Although Black Tom was ultimately thwarted, the whereabouts of Generation X remained a mystery, prompting Banshee, Emma Frost, and Penance to embark on a search mission to locate them.; At the former Hulkbuster base in New Mexico, Bastion detains Jubilee, aiming to glean comprehensive intelligence about the X-Men from her, including details about their residence and defenses. Despite Jubilee's resistance, she remains unaware that the apparatus she's connected to is engineered to extract her memories, triggered each time Bastion manipulates her thoughts about the X-Men. While Bastion endeavors to manipulate Jubilee into succumbing to her worst fears, his assistant Daria oversaw the memory extraction process. However, Daria swiftly empathizes with Jubilee's plight, seeing not a deranged mutant but a vulnerable young individual. After extracting the necessary memories, Bastion entrusts Daria with processing the information and dispatching troops to intercept a group of X-Men returning from Hong Kong, signaling the imminent public announcement of Operation: Zero Tolerance.; ===Prime Sentinels===; Bastion, bolstered by his newly engineered Prime Sentinels, received the green light to execute his ambitious scheme known as "Operation: Zero Tolerance." They attempted to reconfigure the Sentinel force assembled by Project: Wideawake, but Bastion deemed most of them outdated . Instead, he had a number of humans secretly outfitted with nano-technology to be Prime Sentinels.; Shortly thereafter, the inaugural strike of Operation: Zero Tolerance is unleashed, with troops and Prime Sentinels descending upon the X-Men during their return journey over Colorado. Despite the valiant efforts of Storm, Cyclops, Cannonball, Wolverine, and Phoenix, they succumb one by one to the formidable onslaught of the new Sentinels. Simultaneously with the aerial confrontation, Bastion initiates a public relations blitz, circulating footage of the skirmish to news outlets. Additionally, Henry Gyrich delivered the first official announcement of Operation: Zero Tolerance to the public, portraying it as an international task force assembled to combat the mutant threat decisively. With the capture and transportation of the five X-Men to New Mexico, Bastion leverages this triumph to taunt another detainee—Charles Xavier. Bastion staunchly believes that the vision of coexistence between humans and mutants has perished, assuring that humanity will no longer live in fear of mutantkind.; In Missouri, prompted by intelligence suggesting the development of an anti-mutant weapon, the Mutant Liberation Front launched an assault on a research center, seizing its staff as hostages. Unbeknownst to them, the facility was genuinely dedicated to cancer research, and the information that lured them was a ruse orchestrated by Operation: Zero Tolerance. As OZT troops, led by Ekatarina Gryaznova, swiftly converge on the site, tensions escalated within the Mutant Liberation Front. Amidst monitoring media coverage of their raid, Moonstar identified members of X-Force disguised among the news reporters, persuading her comrades in the MLF to reconsider their actions. Allowing select media access to disseminate their perspectives to the public, Domino, Sunspot, and Siryn, posing as reporters, gain entry to the research center. However, Commander Gryaznova remains vigilant regarding the presence of X-Force. Subsequently, after the three disguised operatives infiltrate the facility, Gryaznova dispatches her troops to apprehend Meltdown, Shatterstar, and Rictor, who are stationed in a nearby encampment. Within the facility, tensions erupt as the Mutant Liberation Front confronts the members of X-Force in a fierce battle. However, Moonstar unexpectedly switches allegiance, revealing her true role as a spy embedded within the MLF ranks. The confrontation escalates when it's discovered that several hostages have been converted into Prime Sentinels, thrusting both teams into a heated conflict. Despite Domino and most of the MLF being subdued, Siryn, Sunspot, Moonstar, and Forearm manage to escape, albeit Forearm swiftly deserts them. Meanwhile, Domino was separated from the MLF and covertly transported to another base by Gryaznova, who deceived Bastion regarding Domino's capture. Gryaznova harbored a deep-seated grudge against Domino, stemming from a prior encounter where Domino destroyed a robot to which Gryaznova had been cybernetically linked. Following this incident, Gryaznova fell into a coma and was subsequently transformed into a Prime Sentinel, fueling her relentless pursuit of Domino ever since.; Concurrently, Bastion personally leads a team in seizing control of the nearly deserted Xavier Institute, commencing the decryption of the X-Men's intricate computer systems. While Bastion busies himself with this task, Cable learned of the X-Men's predicament through televised reports and receives a call from his ally, G.W. Bridge of S.H.I.E.L.D.. Hindered by Bastion's formidable political support, S.H.I.E.L.D. finds itself unable to conduct a thorough investigation. However, Bridge enlightens Cable about the X-Men's incarceration and the heightened presence of Operation: Zero Tolerance forces at the Xavier Institute. Though appreciative of the intel, Cable remains reticent with Bridge regarding any link between the X-Men and the Xavier Institute, a clandestine fact even unknown to S.H.I.E.L.D. Subsequently, Cable ventures to the school to prevent the Xavier Protocols and Mutant Underground Files from falling into Bastion's hands. Stealthily infiltrating the mansion, he first liberates the detained Caliban. However, Bastion soon detects Cable's presence, prompting his men to launch an assault. Cable and Caliban manage to evade capture long enough for Cable to guide Caliban to safety through the Morlock Tunnels.; Meanwhile, Moonstar reached out to G.W. Bridge to assist in locating the absent members of X-Force, leading him to track them down to a caravan. Moonstar, Sunspot, and Siryn launched an assault on the convoy during an unscheduled halt, successfully freeing Meltdown, Rictor, and Shatterstar before OZT scientists could subject them to painful experiments. However, upon inspection, X-Force discovered that neither Domino nor the captured MLF members were present. Briefly engaging in combat, Commander Gryaznova was swiftly defeated by X-Force, allowing them to make a hasty escape. Shortly after, Domino, previously missing, reemerged in Oklahoma, bearing evident signs of OZT's surgical intervention—her head shaved, a scar adorning the back of her neck. Attempting to reach out to Cable proved futile, as he and Caliban were also evading Operation: Zero Tolerance forces.; In Westchester, Cable retraced his steps to the school's lower levels to download the Xavier Protocols and Mutant Underground Files. Upon completing the download, he obliterated the computer system, only to be uncovered and cornered by Bastion. The leader of O:ZT disclosed that he had already breached Cerebro's files, possessing information regarding the identities and whereabouts of numerous mutants, as well as potential mutants and their families. Bastion challenged Cable not to act against him, warning that any harm befalling him would trigger his troops to hunt down those individuals. Despite Bastion's pursuit of the encrypted files, a skirmish erupted as his troops attempted to sneak up on Cable. Ultimately, Cable seized control of the situation using his telepathic abilities, compelling everyone to vacate the school while erasing their memory of its location. However, inexplicably, this failed to affect Bastion. Before Cable could unravel Bastion's true nature, he succumbed to unconsciousness due to the strain of manipulating so many minds. Upon awakening, Cable found himself alone, with the entire school stripped bare.; ===Spider-Man===; Meanwhile, Henry Gyrich, a vocal advocate of OZT, became the target of more extremist mutants. In New York City, Marrow and Callisto stage an assault on Gyrich's limousine, positioning themselves as the mutant response to OZT. To Gyrich's astonishment, his bodyguards are revealed to be Prime Sentinels, with little regard for collateral damage. Spider-Man intervened to defuse the situation, but Callisto sustains a serious injury while shielding Marrow from harm. Gyrich ultimately shoots down the Prime Sentinels, recognizing their uncontrollable nature and the danger they pose. Encouraging Marrow to seek medical assistance for Callisto instead of continuing the conflict, Spider-Man persuaded her to relent, though she vows vengeance before departing.; ===Generation X===; Under constant surveillance by OZT forces, Emma Frost, Banshee, and Penance face a daunting challenge in locating the missing members of Generation X. Unaware of their whereabouts, Synch, M, Skin, Chamber, and Husk find themselves in Venice, California. Unable to reach Banshee or Emma, Skin seeks refuge with his cousin Gil, who offers them shelter. Meanwhile, Skin reaches out to his former associate, Tores, for assistance, unaware of her allegiance to Zero Tolerance. Tores, nursing a grudge against Skin, betrays Generation X by alerting Zero Tolerance forces to their presence. However, her own mutant status exposes her to betrayal by the Prime Sentinels, forcing Generation X and Tores to form an uneasy alliance to evade capture. Escaping into the sewers, they find themselves pursued by a relentless battalion of Prime Sentinels.; ===Back in New Mexico===; Back at the OZT base in New Mexico, Bastion confronted Jubilee with holographic images of the imprisoned X-Men, initially met with Jubilee's skepticism. However, her doubts were shattered when she realized the truth of their capture. To compound matters, Bastion revealed his possession of the Xavier Protocols and Mutant Underground files, currently undergoing decryption to eradicate every X-Man and their allies. Meanwhile, elsewhere in the facility, believing Wolverine to be deceased, guards attempted to dispose of his body in an incinerator, only for the resilient mutant to awaken and flee. Liberating his comrades, Wolverine utilized Jean's telepathy to navigate them unnoticed to the upper floors. However, Bastion eventually caught wind of their escape, deploying Prime Sentinels to intercept them at the exit. Forced to witness the events, Jubilee seized an opportunity to turn the tide against Bastion by striking her helmeted head against a control panel, triggering the release of blast doors. With the path to freedom cleared, the X-Men made their escape, unaware of Jubilee's covert assistance as they vanished into the desert. Returned to her cell, Jubilee continued her self-imposed hunger strike, prompting concern from Daria, who expressed remorse for the unfolding events. Exploiting the moment, Jubilee lashed out with her powers, only to discover Daria's true nature as a Prime Sentinel. Daria's nano-tech defenses reacted instinctively, unleashing robotic insects to attack Jubilee. Amidst the chaos, Jubilee managed to calm Daria and restore her stability, but Daria was left grappling with the realization of her own monstrous nature, mirroring the accusations leveled against mutants by Operation: Zero Tolerance.; ===Iceman===; Across the nation, the highly publicized clash between OZT and the X-Men dominates headlines, sparking widespread OZT fervor. Learning of his teammates' captured, Iceman recognized the need to take action and sets out to confront OZT. In New York City, Iceman rushed to the aid of Dr. Cecilia Reyes, a mutant under attack by Prime Sentinels at her hospital. Despite rescuing her from the Sentinels, Cecilia was far from pleased to see him. She revealed that Professor Xavier had once approached her to join the X-Men, an offer she had declined. Blaming the X-Men for her public exposure and subsequent life upheaval, Cecilia had initially been resistant. However, Iceman soothed her fears, emphasizing that their common enemy was Zero Tolerance and Bastion, extending beyond Xavier's influence. Convinced of the need for unity to survive, Cecilia decided to accompany Iceman. Fleeing into the streets of New York, they sought refuge in Soho, breaking into the apartment of Psylocke and Archangel, only to find it deserted. Unbeknownst to them, they were not alone, as they were ambushed by a Prime Sentinel posing as Archangel's house-sitter. Before the situation escalated, Detective Charlotte Jones intervened, neutralizing the Sentinel threat. While Iceman trusted Detective Jones as an old acquaintance, Cecilia remained skeptical of her sudden appearance. Despite their misgivings, they followed Jones to her precinct, awaiting further developments in an interrogation room. Unbeknownst to them, Marrow shadowed their movements to the police department. As Marrow disrupted the electricity and infiltrated the precinct, Iceman sensed trouble brewing. Cecilia's suspicions were validated when Prime Sentinel police officers stormed the precinct, initiating an intense skirmish. Marrow joined the fray against the Sentinels, but the battle exacted a toll when Detective Jones took a shot aimed at the trio. As Cecilia administered aid to Jones, she revealed that she had been coerced by OZT, holding her son Timothy Jones hostage. Enraged by Bastion's ruthlessness, Iceman, after Cecilia treated Jones, resolved to rescue Timothy. However, as they ventured into the streets, they confronted a formidable blockade of OZT troops and Prime Sentinels.; ===Prospero's clinic===; Meanwhile, in the New Mexican desert, Cyclops and his team stumble upon a blind man named Mustang, who lives in a trailer park with several other residents. The X-Men learn that the residents are patients of a Doctor Prospero, who treats them for various physical ailments at a free clinic. The X-Men stay the night at the park, but a distrustful Wolverine heads off to Prospero’s lab and discovers that the doctor is actually running a center to transform people into Prime Sentinels. The X-Men realize that Prospero must have been treating many people across the nation, each of whom unknowingly are now sleeper Prime Sentinels. After Wolverine and the X-Men reveal this information to Mustang via Phoenix’s telepathy, Mustang is shocked and tries to convince the other residents of the trailer park that it is true, though they remain skeptical.; ===Senator Kelly's change of mind===; Elsewhere, Senator Robert Kelly, who originally supported OZT, has gone through an extreme amount of soul searching. After visiting his wife’s grave, he realized the error in supporting the program and quickly heads to Washington D.C. to convince the administration to put an end to the program. There at the White House, Henry Gyrich reminded Kelly that Bastion will not be pleased, to which Kelly tells Gyrich to get S.H.I.E.L.D. involved.; ===Jubilee's escape===; In her cell, Jubilee is approached by Daria, who has come to the conclusion that there is little difference between the two of them and has decided to aid Jubilee and help her escape. Daria and Jubilee break out of the Operation: Zero Tolerance compound, but their escape does not go unnoticed. Bastion sends several Prime Sentinels after the duo, but Daria flies Jubilee into a canyon, after which she gives the young mutant precise instructions on how to avoid the Sentinels and make it to the nearest town. Daria then flies away acting as a decoy, self-destructing some miles out to fake Jubilee’s death. In California, Jubilee's teammates from Generation X make their way to the car-park of Gil’s uncle, but it is a momentary relief as the Prime Sentinels locate them and gather outside the building. The Sentinels crash into the building and engage Generation X in battle. For a while, it seems the mutant teenagers can keep their enemies at bay, but one by one the team falls. Skin devises a plan to take down the Sentinels and, going down below with Gil, the two pour gasoline all over the cars in the chamber and then stick a soaked rag into the gas tank of one of the cars. When the Sentinels break through to the lower levels, Gil lights the rag and speeds out of the building on a scooter. Generation X and the Prime Sentinels are all caught up in the explosion that rocks the building. Whereas all of the Prime Sentinels are destroyed, Generation X fortunately survives. However, the explosion causes M to undergo an odd transformation as she is split into two young twin girls.; ===Attack on New York===; Bastion, on his way to the New York, orders the activation of the remaining Prime Sentinels to locate the renegade X-Men. Already in the presence of their quarry, the now-transformed trailer park residents attack the X-Men, but are quickly defeated. In the aftermath, the team quickly realizes that the only way to stop Bastion’s army is to destroy Dr. Prospero’s clinic. As they depart, Wolverine picks up a scent and heads off into the desert, where he finds Jubilee wandering. He takes her back to Prospero’s lab, where the X-Men and trailer park residents have finished destroying the installation. When Bastion learns of the facility’s destruction, he activates the Sentinel protocol in Mustang, who transforms into a Prime Sentinel.; In New York, Iceman, Marrow and Cecilia Reyes are saved from the hopeless battle by the arrival of the Israeli mutant and Mossad agent known as Sabra, who knocks down half a building to cover their escape. As they flee, she explains to them that she has come to aid the X-Men against Bastion. With the intelligence Sabra collected on Bastion, which includes where Detective Jones’ son is being held, the four mutants travel to a house on the Connecticut shoreline, where they are met by another army of Prime Sentinels. Inside the house, they find Timothy and a woman named Rose Gilberti, as well as Bastion. Hopelessly outnumbered, the four mutants don't even put up a fight as the OZT leader taunts Iceman over his victory, explaining how he once was less than human, but the woman he met, Rose, taught him to be human. Horrified, Rose tells Bastion that nothing she taught him justifies what he is doing now, a statement that catches Bastion off guard and demoralizes him. At that point, Marrow initiates another battle against Bastion, which quickly leads to a one-on-one fight between Bastion and Iceman. Realizing that Bastion clings dearly to his belief that he has humanity, Iceman challenges this thought and tells Bastion that OZT takes him closer away from being human. Bastion is unaffected by Iceman’s words and is about to order his Sentinels to kill the mutants, when suddenly S.H.I.E.L.D. arrives and orders Bastion to stand down, as OZT authorization to act on United States soil has been revoked. With no more support from the government, Bastion has no other choice but to order his Prime Sentinels to stand down and surrender.; ===Escaping the Facility===; Wolverine battled Mustang, while the other X-Men found more Prime Sentinels waiting outside. During the battle, Cyclops was injured. Suddenly, G.W. Bridge arrived, leading the forces of S.H.I.E.L.D., who were under presidential orders to end Operation: Zero Tolerance after Senator Kelly’s push to end it. As they aided the X-Men, a medic realized that Cyclops seemed to have had a surgery recently. When S.H.I.E.L.D. troops headed out to begin the long country-wide process of shutting down Operation: Zero Tolerance, the X-Men commandeered an abandoned OZT ship in order to get Cyclops back to the mansion for treatment. En route, Cyclops came to the realization that Bastion had planted a bomb within him as a failsafe in case the X-Men escaped. Despite the absence of proper medical equipment, Cecilia Reyes's medical expertise played a crucial role in saving Cyclops's life from the bomb implanted by Bastion. Following this ordeal, Cyclops and Phoenix decided to take a leave from the X-Men to allow Cyclops to recuperate. Initially devastated and angry after following Iceman to an empty mansion, Cecilia reluctantly came to terms with the fact that she was now part of the X-Men.; ===Aftermath===; After spending some time in S.H.I.E.L.D. custody undergoing study, Bastion eventually broke free. Witnessing Rose Gilberti's death, Bastion journeyed back to New Mexico to the Prospero Clinic, also under S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. There, he encountered Cable and Machine Man, revealing his origins before seemingly meeting his end when the facility self-destructed.

+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+Some or over 20,000 years ago, in the days of pre-Cataclymic Atlantis, the Order of the Midnight Sons, or the Spirits of Vengeance, were a mysterious group of powerful beings banded together to oppose the demon Zarathos, the Lilin, and the Fallen.; Along with the Blood, a similar group, the Order battled Zarathos and his forces. Unable to defeat Zarathos, they forced him into the Medallion of Power, an object that he sought to control, but were trapped within it as well. The Medallion was then shattered by the Blood to prevent other from seeking it.; According to the Baron Skullfire and Molek (who were possibly members, and subsisted into the Modern Age), back in the old days of the Order, there were legions of the Spirits of Vengeance.; ===Legacy===; During the Modern Age, Doctor Strange gathered a loosely-affiliated group of mystically-powered heroes to oppose Lilith and her Lilin. Originally known as "the Nine", they later became informally referred to as the Midnight Sons.; Another incarnation of the Midnight Sons was formed by Morbius, under authorization of ARMOR to track down beings infected by a zombie virus that had spread from Earth-2149 to Earth-616.

+Full name: Pacific Overlords
+Other aliases: Overlords
+First appearance: Avengers West Coast Vol 1 70
+Created by: Roy Thomas; David Ross
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Formed by Doctor Demonicus
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Demonica
+Equipment: Doctor Demonicus had access to advanced technology.
+History:
+The Pacific Overlords were a group of super-powered individuals who gained their powers through experiments and procedures conducted under the watchful eye of the once-brilliant geneticist turned criminal subversive, Doctor Demonicus. Principal among Demonicus's procedures was exposure to the few remaining shards of the highly radioactive meteor named the Lifestone.; The existence of the Pacific Overlords was first discovered by the super-heroine Spider-Woman when she battled two of their members, Jawbreaker and Kuroko, on the dock of the Newport Beach Marina. When Spider-Woman enlisted the aid of the West Coast Avengers, Demonicus led the team on a merry chase from California to Hawaii to Australia to Japan before finishing it on the new island nation of Demonica.; Along the way, several of the West Coast Avengers and a few private citizens were taken hostage. A small band of other members of the West Coast Avengers and their allies did eventually storm the island nation and free the hostages, but were unable to take any action against Demonicus and his Overlords for the crimes that they had committed.; It seemed that raising Demonica from the ocean floor was what had been Demonicus's plan all along. The Overlords were nothing more than a means to an end, serving more to keep the West Coast Avengers occupied than anything else. Within hours of being raised from the ocean floor, Demonica was recognized as a sovereign nation by the United Nations. Under their new charter, the West Coast Avengers had no authority to interfere in the legal affairs of a United Nations member and were forced to leave Demonica. Demonicus now ruled over his own country which was rich in natural resources. His Overlords gave him a small, but superhumanly powerful, army.; Demonicus eventually came under the control of a demon and used the Overlords to advance the demon's message. Kuroko requested help from the West Coast Avengers. The island nation of Demonica finally sank beneath the Pacific Ocean and the Overlords were killed as a result of this.

+Full name: Outlaws
+First appearance: Web of Spider-Man Vol 1 50
+Created by: Gerry Conway; Alex Saviuk
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: A team of superhumans inadvertently brought together by the machinations of Silver Sable and Spider-Man.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Manhattan, New York City, New York
+Weapons: Prowler's Gauntlet's, Rocket Racer's Mini-Rockets, Silver Sable's Guns, Paladin's Stun Gun,
+History:
+This makeshift alliance of former adversaries first came together when freelance photographer Nick Katzenberg delivered explosive images to the Daily Bugle. The photos, supposedly showing Spider-Man burglarizing the penthouse of businessman Winston Walker, were published on the front page by J. Jonah Jameson, reinforcing his long-standing narrative of Spider-Man being a criminal.; In response to the disturbing images, several of Spider-Man's former enemies—Puma, Rocket Racer, Will-O'-The-Wisp, and Prowler—took interest, concerned that the wall-crawler had truly turned to crime. Their initial attempts at cooperation were chaotic: Rocket Racer accused Prowler of being the thief, Puma confronted Spider-Man directly, and Spider-Man dropped a beeper during the fray which Puma later retrieved for analysis.; Believing his previous heist was a decoy, Walker checked on documents he had hidden at a secure location. Spider-Man tailed him and seemingly robbed him again, just as Will-O’-The-Wisp arrived and confronted the web-slinger. Gunfire and power lines distracted the Wisp, allowing Spider-Man to escape and rendezvous at Ellis Island with Silver Sable and Sandman.; Meanwhile, Rocket Racer and Prowler tracked a spy outside Walker’s residence and discovered his ties to Silver Sable. Confronting Spider-Man shortly afterward, they engaged in a brief clash with Sandman. As Sable withdrew, Puma, tracing the beeper to Symkaria, arrived and forced a meeting. It was then revealed that Spider-Man had staged the theft to provoke Walker into exposing his ties to the Maggia syndicate. Silver Sable obtained incriminating documents confirming Walker’s role in laundering money. She offered her card to the reformed criminals, suggesting possible future work. Although Peter Parker photographed everything needed to clear Spider-Man's name, Jameson—who was secretly being impersonated by the Chameleon—refused to publish them.; Some time later, Spider-Man was approached by someone appearing to be She-Hulk—in reality, the Space Phantom—who asked for help examining a crypt beneath a tenement recently acquired by Kingpin. Upon unlocking a chest inside, a black mist escaped and overwhelmed Spider-Man after the imposter dropped a massive stone slab on him. Spidey freed himself and raced to Avengers Mansion, encountering Captain America, Sersi, Thor, and Quasar. Mistaking the real She-Hulk for the imposter, Spider-Man attacked her. After a confrontation, Captain America explained She-Hulk had never left the mansion. Feeling isolated, Spider-Man departed to conduct his own investigation.; He summoned his recent allies—Puma, Rocket Racer, Prowler, and Sandman—and regrouped at the former Daily Bugle building. They split into pairs to investigate: Puma and Prowler infiltrated Fisk’s offices, while Sandman and Rocket Racer dug into city records. Unknown to them, the Avengers monitored the group, wary of their criminal pasts. Sandman, later revealed to be another impersonation by Space Phantom, attacked Rocket Racer. The real entity was found by Spider-Man at the Central Park Zoo, feeding on animals before the Avengers intervened. Afterward, the truth about the Space Phantom’s manipulations emerged, including his connection to a mysterious master. Recognizing the deception, Spider-Man suggested they confront the Avengers.; At Avengers HQ, a scuffle broke out again when Spider-Man struck Captain America. Puma exposed the Space Phantom, forcing him to reveal his motives. He proposed an alliance against his master, which both groups rejected. The Phantom was banished back to Limbo. City records uncovered Ambrose Carpathian as the tenement’s original owner—a wealthy occultist who led the Arcane Order of the Night and brought something deadly back from the Amazon in 1890. The black mist was actually a swarm of cannibalistic micro-insects. After a final battle, Thor sealed the swarm back inside the chest and hurled it into space. Later, Calculus of the Young Gods revealed he had orchestrated events so Spider-Man could destroy the chest before the Kingpin could exploit it.; Eventually, Silver Sable reunited part of the group for a new mission. Hired by Canadian official M. Eduard LeBon to retrieve his kidnapped daughter, Sable recruited Prowler, Rocket Racer, and Will-O’-The-Wisp—now calling them "The Outlaws." Though Sandman was reported to be working with the kidnappers, he was actually undercover, hoping to prove himself to the Avengers. When the Outlaws stormed the compound, they clashed with Sandman, who defeated them but refrained from harming them after Will-O’-The-Wisp sensed his inner turmoil. Sandman intercepted the escaping helicopter and disabled it, allowing Sable to neutralize the leader, Boussard. Impressed by his actions, Sable officially welcomed Sandman to the Outlaws.; The Outlaws would only appear once more in a brief run-in with Excalibur.

+Created by: Bill Mantlo; Sal Buscema
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Subterranea
+History:
+When the Mole Man grow tired of being lonely on in his domain of Subterranea he decided to form a utopian society for people just like him. He constructed an underground city and began kidnapping New Yorkers who were either blind, disfigured, or were generally viewed as ugly. He also began stealing various statues so that they could appreciate the beauty of the artwork. Among those kidnapped was Alicia Masters, the blind sculptress and long time Fantastic Four associate. This led to the Fantastic Four tracking down their old enemy and uncovering his plot. Although a fight broke out, the Fantastic Four were surprised to learn that many of those the Mole Man brought into his domain wished to stay and enjoyed their new home. The Fantastic Four then agreed to depart, and leave the Mole Man alone, provided he return all the stolen statues once they had been duplicated.; Eventually, the Outcasts included a group of physically enhanced members including the large handed Digger, the super-humanly strong Boulder, the vibration casting Landslide and the divining rod wielding Water Witch. These members of the Outcasts came to the aid of their master when his domain was under attack by Kala mistress of the Neitherworld, and the Lava Men who sought to claim the Fountain of Youth in the Mole Man's domain. To this end she pitted a team of Olympic athletes against the Outcasts in a battle to the finish. The clash was interrupted by both Spider-Man and the Hulk. The two heroes ended hostilities and the Mole Man and Kala agreed to live together when the Mole Man admitted to still loving her.; Later when Subterranea was impacted by the mutant terrorist known as Avalanche, who was using his vibratory powers to shake San Andreas Fault, the super-powered Outcasts went to investigate. They stopped Avalanche with the help of the Hulk. When the town of Clairton, West Virginia was under attack by the Dire Wraiths, the Mole Man and his outcasts crossed paths with the Spaceknights Rom and Starshine. The Mole Man and his followers helped the two Spaceknights defend the people of Clairton from the Wraiths. When millionaire cartoonist Alden Maas attempted to expand the size of Earth by utilizing the powers of the Human Torch and pipe it into the Earth, it had a catastrophic effect on the Mole Man's domain, causing a massive lava flow that apparently slew all of the non-powered members of the Outcasts. The Mole Man later joined the Torch and the Thing to stop Maas from unleashing a thermonuclear device below the Earth. However, there were apparently some survivors, or the Mole Man gathered a new group of non-powered Outcasts, who began helping the Mole Man in a plan to raise a portion of Subterranea above ground so that they might have their an island to call their own on the surface. Among their numbers was the Thing during a period in which he was estranged from the Fantastic Four. When the Fantastic Four went looking for the Thing, they discovered the Mole Man's plans threatened to cause untold destruction to the surface world and put a stop to it, resulting in the apparent destruction of Subterranea and Monster Isle. Most of the non-powered Outcasts either fled or presumably perished in the destruction.; Although it appears that all non-human Outcasts have fled, the super-powered members of this society remained. During the so-called Subterranean Wars, the Mole Man sent these Outcasts to recover Kala when she attempted to get the aid of Iron Man, leading to a clash with the armored Avenger. Water Witch was later seen among the many female super-humans on Femizonia Island. Since then none of the super-human Outcasts have been seen since, their subsequent fate is unknown.

+History:
+The group of mutants known as the Outcasts were formed by the mutant inventor Forge shortly after he parted company with Magneto. The band consisted of the mute illusionist Mastermind, the mentally feeble escapee from the slave pens known as the Brute, the deformed Toad, and the bitter Sauron. They traveled the wasteland of America, putting on Shakespearean plays for surviving humans and helping those in danger from the forces of Apocalypse. Along the way they recruited another Slave Pen escapee Nate Grey, a powerful telepath.; The band came across a train of humans being led to the nearest slave pens for slaughtering and freed them, battling an army of Infinites. Nate jumped into battle, using his powers. He was rescued by young mutant Theresa Cassidy who joined their band as Sonique. In escaping, they came across a man named Essex who joined them. Unknown to all, Essex was in reality the Horseman Sinister, who had recently defected to track down Nate, his own creation, to direct him in his destiny: to destroy Apocalypse. Apocalypse himself learned of Nate's existence as his minion the Shadow King detected the boy's presence. Apocalypse dispatched his minion Domino to recruit or kill him.; The band decided to lay low for a while and Forge continued training Nate how to fight without relying on his powers. Essex encouraged the boy in the use of his powers, much to Forge's disapproval. Essex convinced the Outcasts to investigate one of Apocalypse's human processing factories, and Nate subsequently destroyed it.; Brute began to recognize Essex from somewhere, but his damaged mind had difficulty placing him. Brute remembered who Essex was. When the Brute confronted Essex, Essex killed him.; Domino and her minions tracked down the Outcasts and attacked at the moment that Forge confronted Essex and asked him to leave. The Outcasts were mostly slaughtered by the attackers. Mastermind was incinerated by Domino and Toad was slain by Grizzly. However, Toad slew Caliban, Forge killed Grizzly, and Nate wiped Domino's mind. Forge resumed his conversation with Essex, who revealed his true identity and killed Forge. Nate left to get vengeance on Sinister. Nate learned his intended purpose and seemingly slew Sinister before flying off to confront Apocalypse, leaving Sonqiue to care for Sauron.; Nate found himself transported to Earth-616 where he is still currently active. While Sinister survived he recruited Sauron and Sonique in his Sinister Six. Sinister and Sauron were slain in a battle with the X-Men, while Sonique was knocked out and taken into custody.

They kept the Dooms in the Hole deep below the main council chamber. Later, Valeria Richards stumbled upon them when she used the Bridge and found the Council of Reeds being wiped out by the Mad Celestials.; Before facing the menacing Mad Celestials, Valeria told Doctor Doom that a little prize awaited him if he succeeded in buying time for the Future Foundation by battling this threat. After his apparent death, Doom woke up in the ruins of the former base of the Council of Reeds, who had been destroyed by the Mad Celestials. He found himself among many versions of himself from other universes, who had been lobotomized and captured by the former Council. After stealing Infinity Gauntlets from two of the dead Reeds, Doom was praised as a leader by his counterparts.; Doom used one of the Infinity Gauntlets he had taken to rule Earth-98570, the reality of one of the dead Reeds. However, he got overthrown by his own creations and had to be rescued by the Richards family. Doom was caught at the Bridge's entrance after escaping Earth-98570 and the Parliament of Doom helped free Doom, but the Bridge was destroyed after the other Dooms entered Earth-98570, trapping them there.; A similar conference of peers met at the Nativity of Doom where, despite interference by the Fantastic Four members Mister Fantastic and the Thing, they assured the birth of Doom.

One of the Outcasts, Speedball played also the part of one of "Cap"'s loyalists, even if another Outcast, Bruce Bananner, told the enemy about that in order to break free from his "Hulk" condition. Some time later, two visitors came from another Earth, they're the would-be hero Gibbon and the human Fiona Fitzhugh, who discovered "Cap"'s true nature while trying to find a way out from that universe; Speedball saved them and brought them to their headquarter before telling them the Baron was going to finish building an interdimensional gateway to invade Earth-616. Gibbon helped them finding out the true Cap had been frozen, but Dr. Bananner informed the Invaders, who attacked the Outcasts and kidnapped Gibbon and Fiona, as the woman was the only one who knew how to build the gateway. Every Outcast ever, led by the real Captain America, attacked the Baxter Building, where the gatway was placed, and they fought the Ape-vengers until Cap revealed the truth about his lookalike. Now united, the apes destroyed the vampires and Gibbon could return at home with Fiona... and an injured Speedball.

+Trivia: Deadpool thought that one of the three Paguros the Punisher had identified was on the cast of the Sopranos.
+History:
+===Origin===; The Paguro Family, or Paguros, were an old Cosa Nostra family at some point, with their hands in every businesses.; ===Support staff of New York's criminal world===; Over the years, as the Mafia turned into a simple gang, the Paguros changed their modus operandi: Led by "Pops" and his son and counselor Ferdinand, they stepped back from the conflicts and became support staff, helping new gangs to assemble in place of those who went down, teaching them the ways for a fee, becoming indispensable to every gang and letting them think they were in control, while avoiding the conflict and attention from the police.; In order to protect their activities, only two rules existed:; Keeping the Paguros a secret, with anyone who ratted them out becoming the target of every other criminal in New York. That rule assured them that they stayed way off the radar.; If they called, the criminals had to come immediately.; As part of their service, the Paguros invited their clients for a party in their stronghold in South Bronx, allegedly the safes place in Bronx, each time a crazy event occurred in New York, providing booze, drugs and ladies.; For years, they also offered a "sizable" bounty on the head of the Punisher.; Among the families helped were the Nobili Family, who demonstrated only failing.; ===Vs. the Punisher===; As he kept taking groups down, for having weak groups taking their places easily, the Punisher suspected the existence of contacts, suppliers, know-how, infrastructure.; Torturing criminals in order to obtain intel, he learned about them.; The Paguros learned that the Punisher was on their trail, and set up a trap, from which he managed to escape.; ===The End===; As part of Red Hulk's Thunderbolts, like his teammates, the Punisher was granted one mission from the team for his own goals, and he decided to take down the Paguros.; At that point, the Punisher had managed to identify three members of the Paguros, including "Pops" and Ferdinand.; As the Nobili Family attempted to get support from the Paguros, they refused, and facing their insistence and incivility, had them beat up by their other clients.; The Thunderbolts soon started to capture and interrogate criminals, without much results, until they found the Nobili who immediately gave up the location of the Paguros, glad to have to avenge themselves.; Around that moment, Thanos' armies started their invasion of New York, and the Paguros' clients went in hiding and partying in their bunker.; The Nobili were soon running away from the battle, pursued by Thanos' ravagers, until they arrived to the Paguro stronghold, the only safe place in the Bronx. The Paguros shoot down the aliens but refused the Nobili entry, until Gordon mentioned that he had intel about the Punisher. Informed by Gordon and defiant of the Nobili's claims that they hadn't revealed the location of the stronghold, "Pops" decided to arm his guests in prevision, while the Punisher, Venom and Elektra took down their guards outside the stronghold, arming a bomb to enter the bunker.; An error of programming forced Venom to threw the bomb away in order to save them, but it hit a spaceship who crashed into the bunker, opening the way. The trio soon entered and attacked them, causing "Pops" to triple the bounty on the Punisher and apply it as well on Venom and Elektra.; As the Terrigen Bomb was set off by Blackbolt, the Terrigen Mist soon entered the bunker, and the Nobili went through a transformation into newly manifested Inhumans. The Paguros' leaders escaped during the brawl, but Venom tossed a piece of the Symbiote on one of them.; The Paguros' clients were slaughtered by the Thunderbolts and the Nobili, while the three Paguros' leaders went to hid at P's Pizza, where Thunderbolt Deadpool was coincidentally eating a pizza. Recognizing them, he immediately shot them three.

+Base of operations: Unnamed base, Columbia Icefield, Canada; Formerly:; The Mount, Nevada
+Weapons: Long-ranged missiles
+Transportation: Jet
+History:
+The Pantheon's history is presumably similar to their Earth-616 counterpart's.; According to Paris, the Pantheon were aware of Bruce Banner for years due to their surveillance of his father, Brian Banner as well as a vision of Bruce Andromeda had. At an unknown period of time, the Pantheon's base, the Mount was destroyed.; After humankind was devastated by nuclear war, Prometheus was sent to investigate the Black Scythe terrorist organization in Philadelphia after Delphi had a vision. However, Prometheus was caught in the organization's biological attacks and died soon after. After that, the Pantheon's leader Atalanta swore vengeance on the Black Scythe.; The Pantheon later went into seclusion and lived in a base beneath Canada's Columbia Icefield. One day, Delphi sensed that the Pantheon's former teammate Hulk had survived, was now going by the moniker of the Maestro, and was the middle of conquering Washington, D.C. Delphi informed the rest of the Pantheon. Hector and Ulysses wanted to stop the Maestro, but Atalanta was against it, having grown disillusioned with protecting humankind after its devastation. Later, the Pantheon discovered that their base had been discovered by Doctor Doom, and he demanded to be let in.; Atalanta told her team to ignore Doom, but he promptly teleported himself into their base, forcing them to hear him out. Doom told the Pantheon that the Maestro planned on conquering the world, which interfered with his own needs. The Pantheon and Doom then came up with a plan to stop the Maestro. The Pantheon met with Maestro who welcomed them with open arms, though that almost didn't happen when Ajax recklessly attacked Maestro. As the two parties talked, the Pantheon told Maestro that A.I.M. had killed their member Prometheus and wanted revenge. Maestro agreed to help the Pantheon, and they took off for A.I.M's base in the Pantheon's jet. Maestro eventually grew suspicious and asked how Prometheus died. Ajax accidentally let it slip that Prometheus didn't die by A.I.M.'s hands. Maestro threatened the Pantheon but was then rendered unconscious by a powerful knockout gas provided by Doom.; After capturing Maestro, the Pantheon debated what to do with him. They agreed keeping him in stasis wasn't a good option. So, Paris agreed to go into Maestro's mind with telepathy and force him to revert to Bruce Banner so he would be vulnerable. Using a machine, Paris entered Maestro's mind and managed to trick Maestro into thinking he broke free from stasis and killed most of the Pantheon. Paris then conjured an illusion of Maestro's mother Rebecca, which affected Maestro emotionally, causing him to turn back into Bruce Banner. This allowed Paris to shoot Banner to death with a handgun.; However, Banner recovered from his gunshot wounds despite not being in his Maestro form. So, Atalanta had Banner been sealed away permanently in duranium, believing that it would hold him, while Ulysses openly expressed that this was a bad idea. Ulysses was proven correct when Banner transformed back into Maestro and easily broke free of the duranium. The Pantheon confronted Maestro as he was breaking into their base's missile room. Maestro took Atalanta hostage and forced Ulysses to fire missiles at A.I.M.'s base in Los Angeles. Despite that, Maestro killed Atalanta anyway. Ulysses that he would, though, and chose to launch missiles at the Pantheon's base as well. While Maestro fled, the Pantheon huddled around Atalanta's body and waited for the eventual demise.; It was late revealed that Doom and Maestro were actually working together so they could destroy both the Pantheon and A.I.M. so they felt the two organizations impeded their plans to rule the world.

+Created by: Derek Landy; Ángel Unzueta
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The Paladins were a team of former 50-State Initiative recruits that banded together to work as super heroes without government supervision. Desperate for public attention, the Paladins were pulled into Veronica Eden and Todd Baker's conspiracy that would see each take control of Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. to manipulate the conflict between the two organizations whichever way they saw fit. The Paladin's role in this plan would see them participate in staged fights against Hydra.; Eden's plan was postponed after she failed to take the reins of Hydra and was arrested. Fearing for their prominence, the Paladins broke into the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier Adjunct, where Eden was storing the super-computer Overseer, and reactivated one of its robot guardians, the Myrmidon, to manufacture an enemy. The robot instead chased them off and reactivated its master. With Fifty-One being the only Paladin willing to warn somebody of the threat they had unleashed, the rest of the team subdued him, and he was brainwashed telepathically by Think Tank. The Paladins then fabricated a story about Fifty-One going rogue and turned him into their arch-enemy, orchestrating fights with him any time their visibility was waning.; Fifty-One eventually built up enough resistance to the mental control and freed himself. He broke Eden out of custody so she could facilitate him access to the Hydra Supreme Armor to sneak into the Adjunct and shut down the Myrmidon. The Paladins tracked him down to an abandoned S.H.I.E.L.D. warehouse and stumbled into Iron Man and Captain America in the process. Following a shoot-out between the heroes and Eden's gunmen, during which Fifty-One and Eden escaped, the Paladins fed the heroes into the narrative that Fifty-One was a villain and that he intended to activate Myrmidon. They continued their pursuit to The Annex, a S.H.I.E.L.D. storage bunker. Iron Man and Captain America secretly followed the Paladins and beat them to confronting the fugitives, but Fifty-One escaped as soon as he armored up. The Paladins then helped the heroes take down Eden.; Following Eden's capture, Captain America sent the Paladins away, suggesting they stepped out of the limelight and built up their aptitude as super heroes. Iron Man and Captain America had Eden take them to the Adjunct, where Fifty-One helped them fight a Myrmidon, but was injured in the process. After being swarmed by the army of Myrmidons, Iron Man left the Adjunct with Fifty-One to seek medical aid. Iron Man delivered Fifty-One to the Paladins, unaware of their true intentions. The Paladins took their former teammate to their apartment HQ, where they planned to kill him. They were interrupted by the arrival of Myrmidons who intended to kill Fifty-One themselves. Having learned the truth, Iron Man returned for Fifty-One and took him back to the Adjunct. After Fifty-One used his telepathy to assimilate himself into the Overseer and override the computer's consciousness with his own, the Paladins arrived at the Adjunct to take a stand against Iron Man and Captain America, knowing that they were now seen as villains, but were soundly defeated.

+Trivia: Their symbol is a described as a twisted serpent eating its own tail, otherwise known as the Ouroboros.
+History:
+===Background===; Following Grandmaster's defeat at the hands of the Summoner, another Elder of the Universe, Carina Tivan, established her Council in his place. Despite her good intentions, Frank Castle saw Carina as the progenitor to the Battlerealm's struggle against its many cosmic dictators and fell into despair. The Chronoserpent answered Castle's call for help by corrupting him into Glykhan and promising him an army to oppose Carina's reign. Afterwards, Ouroboros was established and began quickly recruiting anyone aligned with Glykhan's cause.; Ouroboros sought to disrupt Carina's "agenda of peace" by manipulating each side of every conflict across the Battlerealm. To accomplish this, Ouroboros researched Champions to enhance Adaptoids into disguised imitations for infiltrating the Battlerealm's various factions while selling their techniques and replicated equipment to their ideological allies.; ===Attack on the Avengers===; Upon noticing an effort to prevent the Avengers from working with Carina, Civil Warrior began an investigation that led him to deduce that Ouroboros had planted a mole within their ranks. In the middle of a coordinated attack on Avengers Tower, Civil Warrior debriefed Carina and the Summoner on his findings before being interrupted by disguised Adaptoids posing as Avengers. After defeating them, Civil Warrior used his armor to trace a tracking signal from the Adaptoids to the Black Quadrant, where they discovered a bunker full of Ouroboros experiments. Inside, Rogers decrypted intel that someone named Scytalis was tasked with infiltrating the Avengers and sabotaging Carina's reputation.; To draw out Scytalis, Carina conjured a plan that involved Civil Warrior and the Summoner undercover in the Avengers Tower safe room as Iron Man and Captain America, respectively. This succeeded when someone posing as Black Widow announced her intent to splinter the Avengers by staging their two leaders killing each other. When the illusion around the Summoner and Civil Warrior fizzled away, Scytalis shed her disguise, retaliated and ultimately succumbed to the Summoner in front of Carina and the Avengers. Defeated, Scytalis forewarned that Glykhan would focus his efforts against them all and detonated herself as a final gambit. Although her self-detonation was thwarted by Civil Warrior, the Avengers Tower Arc Reactor core was to overload while many Ouroboros-controlled Adaptoid mimics attacked as a diversion. After the threats against the Avengers were neutralized, Carina began a probe into Glykhan's whereabouts while Glykhan placed a highly lucrative bounty on the Summoner.; ===Out of the Shadows===; Glykhan formally revealed himself and Ouroboros by hijacking the comms across the Battlerealm to publicly call Carina's motives into question. Civil Warrior traced the signal to an asteroid near the remains of Battleworld, unknowingly sending Carina and the Summoner into Bahamet's trap where they were publicly broadcasted. Although the Summoner overpowered Bahamet and freed Carina, the Battlerealm's Council still sought explanation for what the broadcasts revealed. With no time to deal with the council's bureaucracy, Carina continued the hunt for Glykhan, leading to an encounter with Cerastes in a repurposed S.W.O.R.D. base.; Because Carina continuously resisted the Council, its leaders organized a summit to discuss what to do about Ouroboros and Carina's rogue team. This played into Glykhan's hands, who saw the gathering of the Council's leaders as an opportunity to permanently fracture them. Disguised as the Punisher, Glykhan infiltrated the Council's security detail and filled the summit's attendees with disguised Adaptoids. When Carina pieced Glykhan's plan together, she teleported her team to the summit to warn them. Despite Glykhan's attempts to delay them, the team forced their way inside and rapidly presented all of their information on Ouroboros to the summit. However, before the information could be processed, Glykhan ordered his Adaptoid army to attack. Following Glykhan's defeat against the Summoner, the Chronoserpent used the opportunity to speak through Glykhan to offer the summit's audience its "salvation" before detonating his body, suggesting that Glykhan served his purpose.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Government-sponsored super-human strike force
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Moscow, Russia
+Equipment: The Protectorate had access to Russia's military resources.
+Notes: Chronologically, their first appearance as the People's Protectorate was in Avengers #319, but their origin was told later. This has lead to some discrepancies; Crimson Dynamo was never a member of the People's Protectorate - he would be known as Airstrike; Perun's outfit was revised when they became the People's Protectorate.; This could be explained fairly easily by saying that the team was re-named prior to the Soviet Super Soldiers special (thus explaining the new name in their Avengers appearances) but that the other changes had not yet been implemented.
+History:
+===Overview===; The People's Protectorate (Russian: Народный протекторат) are a government sponsored team of extraordinary individuals with special abilities. They fight for the people of the Russian Federation and their interests around the globe. The team is formed from members of the Soviet Super-Soldiers after the fall of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War.; ===The Waterwind Incident===; When the Russia-based terrorist group Peace Corpse seized control of the British submarine, the Waterwind, the Protectorate was sent to intervene. They encountered the Avengers and claimed responsibility for handling the matter. The two teams settled their differences in order to fend off an attack by Tyrak and other Atlanteans.; When the Waterwind moved into Canadian waters, the Protectorate were somewhat hasty about letting Alpha Flight take control of the situation, as they doubted their experience.; A nuclear explosion did take place accidentally due to the actions of Vostok and the Vision. Shaman was able to shunt the entire area affected by the explosion into his pouch. While lost in the otherdimensional worlds contained in Shaman's pouch, Alpha Flight, the Avengers and the People's Protectorate faced the Combine; an amalgamous being of the two leaders of the terrorist group who wanted to create war on earth to promote financial growth. The Combine was eventually won over when the other terrorists joined it and all that was affected by the explosion was returned to earth, leaving the Combine to explore the various dimensions in Shaman's pouch.; ===The Winter Guard===; The Protectorate later merged with Siberforce to become the Winter Guard.

+History:
+The Patriots were a paranoid and xenophobic group. They were created when the Shaper of Worlds altered reality on behalf of Andrew "Slugger" Johnson, a former private security guard for millionaire Gregory Gideon with an affection for the 1950s. Based on 1950s Cold War and Communist fear mongering, they were afraid of the motorcycle gang the Wild Ones and their "Youthie" movement. The two sides clashed in the hopes of obtaining the Warhead, a powerful weapon created by a man known as the Brain. The Patriots had an entire class of African-American workers who were nearly invisible to them, and who lived in squalor below the massive bomb shelter that was their home.; Unaffected by the reality warp were members of the Fantastic Four and their ally Thomas Gideon. Caught in between a battle between the Wild Ones and the Patriots, Johnson's reality warp affected the minds of the younger members of the team. When the Wild Ones were forced to retreat, they took the Human Torch, Medusa and Thomas Gideon with them. Meanwhile Mister Fantastic and the Thing were taken to be questioned by their leader Senator McHammer. The Patriots brainwashed Reed and Ben to go after the Warhead for them.; The led to another clash with the Wild Ones, who had the Torch and Medusa on their side. Johnson, having taken the role of the Brain, unleashed the Warhead in a fleeting effort to maintain his picturesque version of reality. Ultimately the Wild Ones and Patriots worked together to destroy the Warhead alongside the Fantastic Four. The two groups were then confronted by a group of African-Americans who were marginalized members of Johnson's illusion. When forced to face an impending Civil Rights movement, the Wild Ones and Patriots conceded to this, shattering Johnson's illusion, causing it to cease to exist.

+Transportation: Lockjaw's Teleportation
+Trivia: As a reward for their dedicated service, the Avengers built the Pet Avengers Mansion, located just behind the Avengers Mansion, to act as headquarters for the Pet Avengers.
+History:
+===Origin===; After discovering that one of the Infinity Gems was located in Attilan in the Blue Area of the Moon, home of the Inhumans, Mr. Fantastic requested Black Bolt and the Inhumans help in finding the Gems. However, unbeknownst to them, Lockjaw had already discovered the Mind Gem. Granting him telepathy, Lockjaw used the Mind Gem to read Mr. Fantastic's mind and decided to go in search of the remaining Gems.; To aid in his quest, Lockjaw recruited other superhero animals including Throg, Lockheed, Hairball, Ms. Lion and Redwing. During their first stop in the Savage Land, Zabu completed the team, and helped locate the Time Gem. The team then journeyed to prehistoric Earth, where they were attacked by Devil Dinosaur and found the Space Gem. Next the team traveled to the Atlantic Ocean, where they were swallowed by Giganto and discovered both the Soul Gem and the Reality Gem in his gut.; Finally, their search led them to the White House, where the Power Gem was on the new collar of the President's dog, Bo. Unfortunately, Thanos had also located the final Gem. Thanos demanded the animals turn over the Gems, and when the refused, he attack. During the battle, Ms. Lion sacrificed himself to save Hairball. Devastated, Hairball unintentionally used the Soul Gem to resurrect Ms. Lion, who upon awaking dubbed the team the "Pet Avengers." Combining the powers of the Infinity Gems, Lockjaw was able to defeat Thanos and trap him in another dimension. As his final act before returning the Gems, Lockjaw used the Mind Gem to telepathically link all the Pet Avengers so they could reunite when needed.; ===Unleashed===; Between missions, the members of the Pet Avengers continued to serve as heroes in other ways. However, when Throg disappeared in search of his place in the world, the other Pet Avengers reunited and journeyed to the Himalayas to find him. Meanwhile, Throg had gone to Asgard where Thor recommended he consult with a Yeti. After meeting him, Throg and the Yeti were forcefully transported to the Dream Realm where the were attacked by the Fallen One's monsters. They were then expelled from the Dream Realm with numerous other mystical creatures by the Fallen One. With help from a unicorn named Damiella and the Yeti (named "Hairball 2" by Ms. Lion), the Pet Avengers were able to save the Dream Realm and returned all the mythical creatures to their home.; ===Avengers vs. Pet Avengers===; When Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man were transformed into frogs by Fin Fang Foom, Thor sent a telepathic distress call to Throg.; The Pet Avengers responded, and attempted to stop Foom and his dragons. They were unsuccessful, and Foom left for China. In China, the many Avengers were battling Foom's dragons. The Pet Avengers joined in, but actually began aiding Foom when he revealed that he was attempting to save his people's dragon eggs. The Pet Avengers were forced to hold off the Avengers, but they were successful in saving the dragon eggs. As a reward for their dedicated service, the Avengers built the Pet Avengers Mansion to act as headquarters for the Pet Avengers.; ==Members==; Hairball (Niels) - The bouncing cat, gifted with kinetic powers similar to his owner Speedball.

Xorn founded the city of the Celestials, for those who wanted to temper and control this aggressivity, and Zorn founded the one of the Eternals, for those who wanted to feed this anger. A third kind of people, called "Deviants" existed for them : the "normal humans", even if the People considered a gamma mutate as "a perfect example of human" (metaphorically and literally). 257 of the People followed Xorn, and the remaining majority came to Zorn's side, about a hundred thousand.; Their numbers were later twice more, using the Source. At the point Nick Fury suggested to look for allies against Reed Richards, the population of the People was about 217, 700 meta-humans, including the mutants who joined them.; When S.H.I.E.L.D. came back looking for help from them against the Children of Tomorrow, Oracle averted the Children from stop their activities of threats.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Utopia, San Francisco Bay, California
+Transportation: Phoenix Force and Mutant flying powers; Magik's teleportation; Siege Courageous
+Notes: Marvel: Avengers Alliance's version of the Phoenix Five featured Jean Grey as a member instead of Namor.
+History:
+After the Phoenix Force was split by Iron Man, it possessed Cyclops, Emma Frost, Namor, Colossus, and Magik. These X-Men, now known as the Phoenix Five, used their immense powers to bring about a global paradise.; The Phoenix Five built a grand new Utopia, a floating fortress, for mutantkind. They began working to provide power, food and water for all the Earth. Not content with just that, they outlawed war altogether. Their infinite power detached them from humanity, and the Avengers mistrusted the Five. Wishing to prepare for the day when the Five would lose control and become destructive, they tried to retrieve Hope from Utopia. Cyclops and Emma alone defeated the Avengers, but they were saved by the timely intervention of the Scarlet Witch, who teleported the Avengers, and Hope, to safety.; Scott realized they needed to hunt down the Avengers, imprisoning some of their members, while the rest were forced on the run as outlaws. After Namor tries to finish them against Cyclops' will, he was defeated by the combined forces of all the Avengers present in Wakanda, their hideout. After Namor fell, his portion of the Phoenix Force was bequeathed to the rest of the Phoenix Five. The Avengers escaped to an unknown location for the X-Men, and Charles Xavier telepathically alerted Scott to stop his actions lest Xavier be forced to stop him.; The actions of the Avengers had unwittingly caused the Phoenixes to begin to lose control of themselves. As the number of Avengers was shrinking day after day, the Phoenix Four's lust for power and tyranny only grew. Professor Charles Xavier attempted to rescue the Avengers that were trapped in Magik's Limbo Prison, but the Rasputin siblings detected their presence before they could escape. The Avengers fought the Rasputins to a standstill until Spider-Man caused a distraction, one that managed only to buy enough time to convince the siblings to fight each other for their share of the Phoenix Force. The ensuing fight caused both to lose their portions of the Phoenix Force, leaving Scott and Emma the final two Phoenixes.; Emma starts to cave into her dark side, killing a man who once committed a "hit-and-run" against a mutant and later acting more tyrannical to the point of demanding to be worshipped and threatening any that refused. Scott confronts the Avengers in K'un-Lun searching for Hope only to be surprisingly beaten by her after she copied the powers of the Scarlet Witch, the Shou-Lao dragon and much of Cyclops' Phoenix power. With a single punch, Hope sent Scott to the moon, making him realize that in order to defeat her, he needs Emma's power.; Cyclops cannot find himself to take the Phoenix from Emma, despite the fact that she taunts him. She tries to tempt him to burn the entire world and start again from nothing, but Cyclops refuses her. Their conversation is interrupted when they are attacked by the combined might of the Avengers and the X-Men. Professor X uses his telepathy to try and shut them down long enough for the Avengers and X-Men to take them down. Cyclops finally gives in and takes Emma's portion of the Phoenix, becoming the sole wielder of the Phoenix Force. After Xavier tries to shut him down again, Scott kills him and completely loses control of himself, becoming Dark Phoenix.; Despite losing himself to the Dark Phoenix, Cyclops managed to assert control for a moment and begged Hope and the Scarlet Witch to stop him. Uniting their powers, they succeeded in wresting the Phoenix-force from him, with Hope becoming its new host.

+History:
+The Phantom Raiders were a gang of horse thieves that were active during the days of the American Frontier. They were organized by Ace Biddle an area horse trader. They specifically targeted the Circle T ranch owned by Mr. Tennyson and his family. Kidnapping Tennyson, Ace then posed as the rancher and pretended to be crippled in an accident. "Confined" to a wheelchair, the impostor then acted ashamed of his "affliction" and sequestered himself in Mr. Tennyson's room. He directed his gang of horse thieves from this room.; After a series of successful raids, Tennyson's young boy Ted went out to try and hunt them down, instead encountering the Two-Gun Kid who agreed to help the family recover their stolen property. When meeting "Mr. Tennyson", the Two-Gun began suspecting that he was an impostor. In order to lure the Phantom Raiders into thieving the ranch again, Two-Gun had Ted ride his horse Cyclone into town and brag about how great the horse was. That night, the Phantom Raiders came to the property and stole Cyclone, a move that Two-Gun allowed according to his plans. Sure enough, after being brought to the Phantom Raider's camp and left alone Cyclone returned to his master and led him there.; The Two-Gun Kid along the way found the real Mr. Tennyson who had managed to free himself and escape and arranged for a coach to bring him back home. Two-Gun then sneaked onto the Raiders camp and freed the stolen horses. In the chaos, Two-Gun rounded up the members of the gang. Their leader then confronted Two-Gun wearing a bandanna, with guns drawn. Two-Gun however was a faster draw and shot the guns out of the leaders hand and took him captive as well. Returning the to the Circle T with his prisoners, Two-Gun revealed their leader was the false Mr. Tennyson and removed his disguise revealing him as Ace Biddle. He then turned them over to the authorities just as the real Mr. Tennyson returned home to a happy reunion of his family.; The fate of the Phantom Raiders is unknown. Whatever that fate may be all members of this gang are likely long dead.

After Hawkeye and Black Widow fought Emma Frost, the Avengers realized the Phoenix Force was indeed corrupting its wielders.; The Phoenix Five collided with the Avengers while trying to show them it could be controlled, by defeating numerous enemies who tried to get their hands on its power. After the two leaders, Cyclops and Phoenix were faced by Captain America and Iron Man, the Phoenix Force left Earth, still leaving the five X-Men with a small portion of its power. With their differences settled, both the X-Men and the Avengers continued to fight in the same side.

+History:
+The Piratas del Aire were a team of professional criminals who doubled as an air circus. Using their own plane and acrobatics, the Piratas boarded commercial planes in flight by jumping on their wings; then overpowered the security with gas weapons. This allowed them to steal secret information from the US governments or kidnap scientists to extract information from them, selling it for profit to enemy governments. The Piratas then blew up the hijacked airplane, killing all the witnesses, and escaped in their own plane, using the circus facilities as their base. This led to a collaboration of security agencies, including USAF and FBI, and to the media wanting to report about it. Clarín sent one of his reporters, Peter Parker, on a plane that was likely to be attacked because genius Brohoober also travelled on it, so that Parker could write a report on it. FBI agents were hidden among the passengers.; Indeed, the plane was captured. Parker, who was secretly the superhero Hombre Araña, confronted the pirates and knocked down one of them, Henry Ryvoli, but was overpowered. The Pirates took Brohoober hostage, but left Ryvoli behind. As el Hombre Araña, Parker chased the Piratas, who killed the plane's pilot. El Hombre Araña was eventually captured by the Piratas; but in the meanwhile, the authorities found the plane. Ryvoli confessed to them, giving them the location of their lair, by then in New York City. The police tracked the Pirates there. They found that el Hombre araña had captured four of the six pirates and, in their escape attempt, one of the other two pirates killed the other pirate, their leader Mayra, only to be arrested by the police.

+Affiliation: Formerly:; Lord Visis (division of assassins, Fialan)
+Weapons: Force Blasters, swords, unnamed machine materializing the target's ultimate fear
+Transportation: Bands of Levitation
+History:
+===Origin===; Pitll Pawob was once a continent on the micro-world of K'ai and the seat of K'ai oldest civilization which was renowned for its technology. Those ancient K'aitians developed a doomsday weapon on Pitll Pawob. Despite inspection teams from Homeworld having found no evidence of such weaponry, Commander Arcturus Rann was convinced of their treachery, and had his Death's Head bombers attack K'ai nevertheless, despite orders of withdrawals, and ravaged the planet.; Pitll Pawob sank save for a tip, which became known as the Isle of Assassins. After this cataclysm, the descendants of the survivors, also known as the Pitll Pawob, intended to maintain the lost technology by hiring themselves and their ancient weapons out. Those weapons were lost to the rest of K'ai, but too few remained in the Ptill Pawob's possession to allow them to be rulers instead of mercenaries.; ===Early Years===; At some point, the World-Mind of K'ai used its energies to create the War-Mind, the combined spirits of the dead Pit'll Pawob Assassin Guild, ancient warrior spirits from K'ai's bloodiest era.; Nearly a century ago, the Pitll Pawob found a device built by the ancients K'aitians of Pitll Pawob in the ruins of the ancients, and since then spent years to learn the device's purpose and to make it functional. That weapon could materialize a target's ultimate fear.; ===Modern Age===; <!-- ====Krylar's leadership====; -->Lord Visis had a Pitll Pawob division of assassins at his disposal. He sent them to slay the Hulk and Jarella, but they were swiftly defeated and retreated, save for one who was briefly interrogated by Hulk, revealing Visis' treachery.; In exile and waging war against Jarella, Visis tasked his servant and master of assassins/assassin supreme Fialan to slay Jarella, and used his magics to transport Fialan to Earth to follow Jarella. Fialan was opposed by the US military and finally destroyed by Hulk after he destroyed a Life Model Decoy of Jarella.; After Hulk returned to K'ai, reunited with his love Jarella, and caused severe blows to her Visis' forces, Visis came to Krylar at the Isle of Assassins, offering full shares in all spoils if he was to join him in the conflict. Krylar was reluctant, remembering that Visis had formerly lost a Ptill Pawob division and feeling Visis' offer was one of a desperate man, but was half-convinced by Visis' mention of a Jarella-ruled world living in peace, removing the need to hire the Pitll Pawob. Krylar presented an ancient K'aitian device materializing the physical embodiment of any opponent's deepest fears into a physical opponent, which astonished Visis and in turn convinced Krylar from helping him, though he intended to betray Visis and have the Pitll Pawob rule over K'ai.; Krylar consequently joined Visis in his keep, bringing the device along with him and men of Pitll Pawob, for the final battle with Jarella's forces. A duel between champions was proposed by Visis, with Hulk (with Banner's mind) was confronted by the materialization of the savage Hulk. As the Sorcerers' Triad reverted Banner to his Hulk mind, the Hulk construct vanished. Visis immediately believed Krylar was switching sides in favor of Jarella. Having anticipated that Krylar would eventually betray him, Visis had had Krylar's men dispatched by his guards while he was manning the device, and was able to slay Krylar.; <!-- ====Unnamed steward====; -->After Krylar's and his men's deaths at Castle Visis, a new steward took his place by the time the son of Hulk, Hiro-Kala, came to K'ai.; Facing K'aitian rebels joined by Visis, now "Visis the Vagabond", Hiro-Kala easily took control of them and sent them to the Isle of Assassins with the instruction of killing everyone there, intending to gain the technologies there. As Hiro-Kala's troop boarded the island, the Enigma Force team crashed the HMS Endeavor III on the isle, destroying the upper structures. No Pitll Pawob were seen during this battle, and their fate and whereabouts remain unrevealed so far.

+Species / origin: Humans mutated by Maggia scientists through artificial strength enhancement and genetic engineering
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Royal Grand Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada
+Affiliation: Maggia (Earth-616)
+History:
+After the crime syndicate Maggia succeeded in using genetic engineering to give Man Mountain Marko superhuman physical powers, and considering that Marko had become a useful asset, Maggia's so-called strength enhancement and genetic engineering division continued working on it to generate a "new model" with apparently greater powers, without affecting their minds or loyalty: The Persuaders. The name was chosen because Maggia sent these people to business owners, to convince them that they should cooperate with Maggia, lest one single Persuader would destroy the business' physical assets.; The Persuaders were first seen when Maggia tried to take over the casinos in Las Vegas. Their initial attempt led by Tony Gold had failed, but helped them identify Michael Berengetti, owner of the Coliseum Casino, as an influential enemy. The Maggia bought the Royal Grand Hotel and Casino, then tried to assassinate or scare away Berengetti, and coerced companies associated with the Coliseum (suppliers like Delatore Restaurant Supply, financiers, travel agents) to stop doing business with Berengetti under penalty of being attacked by Maggia; to do this, Maggia used the Persuaders. With the rumor of Berengetti's death spreading, the Maggia arranged a forced-invitation meeting for any relevant business owner at the Royal Grand; and any owner suggesting he or she would not attend, like the owner of the Craps Casino, was intimidated by a visiting Persuader; the Craps owner discovered his chauffeur had been attacked, then was attacked himself.; Tipped by police lieutenant Barnes, Berengetti knew of the meeting; Barnes wanted Berengetti's superhuman enforcer Mr. Fixit to scare Maggia away, but Berengetti had argued with Fixit at that point. Berengetti still attended the meeting, trying to use his influence over his peers, but Maggia had intimidated them. Fixit then broke the party by surprise, but the Maggia leader summoned the Persuaders (about a dozen of them). When Fixit noticed his enemies were superpowered, he ordered anyone without powers to leave, even Berengetti, while he fought the Persuaders. Jokingly, the Maggia leader said that Fixit had a one-in-one-hundred chance to survive, then Berengetti accepted the bet, using the Coliseum and his assets to cover bets against Fixit. So as not to appear as a coward in front of the men he was trying to intimidate, the leading Maggioso accepted, then the other casino owners joined the bets. Fixit beat the Persuaders one by one, throwing them through windows, including exterior windows - which revealed to the general public that Fixit was fighting against Maggia, and had them, including the LVPD, bet on the fight. Maggia reduced the odds and tried to even close the bets, which the other business owners openly refused to do. In the end, the door opened with one Persuader standing, which caused the men to demand Berengetti their money - but the Persuader then fell, defeated, and Fixit was revealed as the winner. The Maggioso lost a lot of money, fearing that Maggia would kill him for his failure.; ==Attributes==; The Persuaders apparently have Man Mountain Marko's powers to a higher extent, which would include superhuman durability, stamina and strength. This was proven during their fight with Joe Fixit, in which they demonstrated those powers, and also when one of them lifted a forklift over his head while attacking Delatore Restaurant Supply. If they have other powers, those have not been revealed.

+History:
+The Piranha Tots were a disturbing group of children who became devoted followers of Razor-Fist after his escape from the Raft. Living on the margins of society, the children were drawn to Razor-Fist’s warped teachings, which glorified self-harm and pain as tools for achieving control and purpose. Razor-Fist positioned himself as a sage-like figure to them, offering guidance while exploiting their loyalty. The Piranha Tots assisted Razor-Fist by performing menial tasks such as feeding and cleaning him, and later by helping him evade capture. When Razor-Fist learned that Toxin was capable of tracking him by scent, the Piranha Tots participated in masking his presence by dousing him in perfume, allowing him to temporarily avoid pursuit. The group was indirectly involved in Razor-Fist’s campaign of terror, which culminated in the murder of 28 people at an Italian restaurant and the threat of a city-wide “Slasherday” unless New York citizens paid into his bank account. Although Razor-Fist was eventually defeated by Toxin and re-incarcerated at Ryker's Island with prosthetic hands replacing his blades, the Piranha Tots were never apprehended.

+Power Pack (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: Power Pack (Earth-616)
+Full name: Power Pack
+First appearance: Power Pack Vol 1 1
+Created by: Louise Simonson; June Brigman; Bob Wiacek
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Received the powers of a dying Kymellian
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Power Residence, New York City, New York; Formerly:; New Jersey; Bainbridge Island, Washington
+Equipment: Power Pack Uniforms: Each member of Power Pack was given a costume made of unstable molecules by the Smartship Friday. Franklin Richards was later given a costume by Friday as well. With the verbal command, "Costumes On," the costume will appear, replacing any existing clothes. The costumes are maintained when not in use by residents of an alternate reality known as Elsewhere. In addition to summoning, alterations to the costumes can be made by contacting the Elsewhere tailors with notes left in the pockets. Alterations include space worthy costumes and underwater ones as well. Notices also need to be left in the pocket to transform the costumes to indicate the powers possessed by its member. Additional accessories can also be added that become part of the permanent costume until the kids express a desire to alter them again. The pockets of each costume are portals to Elsewhere. Therefore, the kids can hold a significant amount of stuff in the pockets of their costumes without creating a bulge or weight. The limits of the Elsewhere tailors have yet to be expressed.
+Transportation: Kymellian Smartship Friday
+Notes: Alex Power was possibly identified as a potential member of the Initiative when he appeared alongside numerous Marvel superheroes on the cover of Avengers: The Initiative Vol 1 1 (June, 2007), though not all of these superheroes have since been seen to participate in the Initiative.; This Power Pack, from the mainstream universe, should not be confused with the Earth-5631 version of Power Pack, who are the main protagonists in that universe.; In Power Pack Vol 2 1 (August, 2000), the Power parents are aware of their children's powers and secret identity (and fear that neighbors would witness those powers and deem the Power children mutants). This was seemingly retconned in Power Pack Vol 5 1 (November 25, 2020), where the Power Pack hide their powers and superheroic activities from their parents.; Throughout their history, the kids swapped powers and changed codenames frequently. They couldn't swap powers whenever they wished but only during times of extreme stress and they had little control over who got which power. These powers could only be swapped between these four children because these four children received their powers in the same moment and by the same process. There were situations where only one of these kids possessed all of these powers while the other three were powerless. Most notably was when Alex, under the codename, Powerhouse, had all the powers.; The Power family's New York apartment was located at "12 W. 71st St. NY, NY" or an address starting with "13 West 7" . Their unit within this apartment building was 12D.
+Trivia: In 1991, after the cancellation of the original comics series, Marvel developed Power Pack into a live-action show for NBC's Saturday children's television lineup. While a pilot episode was made, the series was not picked up. The pilot was never aired, but in the years that followed, copies of the tape circulated among Power Pack fans.
+History:
+===Origin and first encounters with the Snarks===; Alex, Julie, Jack, and Katie Power were the children of Dr. James Power and Margaret Craig. Dr. Power discovered a new power source, the Anti-Matter Engine. Very efficient and ecologically clean, it had the potential downside of destroying whatever planet it was on.; The night before the generator was due to be tested, Aelfyre Whitemane ("Whitey") (a member of the alien race known as the Kymellians) crash landed not far from the Power's home. The kids investigated and met a mortally wounded Aelfrye. He explained how his home planet of Kymellia was destroyed by the same device the children's father had built, and how his conveyance, the sentient SmartShip Friday, had been shot down by an alien race called the Zn'rx (or "Snarks") who coveted the device for its aforementioned capabilities of planetary destruction. Another account by Katie Power mentioned Whitey being shot and killed by the Zn'rx after he landed on Earth.; Aelfrye also revealed that his species has certain abilities over fundamental forces, and that these abilities could be passed from one person to another at the point of the first person's death. Aelfrye split his powers evenly between the four children, and commanded his SmartShip to watch over them.; Varying accounts exist on whether the Power parents were aware or not of their children's powers and adventures.; ===Jakal's return===; Meanwhile, the Snarks kidnapped their parents. Using their new found powers of gravity manipulation (Zero-G/Alex), acceleration and flight (Lightspeed/Julie), mass (Mass Master/Jack), and energy (Energizer/Katie) the Power kids rescued their parents and defeated the Snarks.<!-- incomplete:; [Adventures, Jakal and Maraud defeated, Franklin Richards, Bogerman, Deadpool, etc.]-->; The Power family later relocated to Bainbridge Island due to their father's being hired by the local school.; As Jakal returned and was set on eradicating any Zn'rx resistance to him, as well as destroy the Power Pack, attack Kymellia and restore the Zn'rx Empire at his former strength and bellicosity, Kofi Whitemane and Prince Sobak, High Snark of the Ankar Clan and chosen successor by Emperor Bhadsha, went to Earth, helping them to defeat the Maraud warriors, before returning to Snark World to oppose Jakal's plans.; ===Splits and reunions===; After Power Pack helped defeat the returned Jakal and ensure a more peaceful transition for Snark World (Julie proposed that a triumvirate ruling corps replace, which was adopted at least in the transition meantime), Jack, uninterested and quite frustrated to have to deal in Snarks' affairs, quit Power Pack to tend to the team's deeply-ill mother, and Julie Power moved to L.A. to pursue an acting career while attending a superhuman support group known as Excelsior. She had not registered with the Superhuman Registration Act. Katie Power once triumphed over the forces of A.I.M., and Power Pack last operated as a team in New Jersey when they fought the supervillains Grizzly and Big Wheel.<!--; separate activities: Alex in Future Foundation, Julie in Avengers Academy-->; At some point, Gwenpool used her reality warping abilities to time-travel to team up with the Power Pack in their youth, alongside Devil Dinosaur and Moon Girl.; Back at New York City, the Power Pack (still hiding their powers from their parents, despite Katie renewing her intention to reveal the truth to them) reformed when supervillain the Wizard created a drone and used hologram technology to disguise it as Carmody Research's demonic former CEO (and James Power's former boss) Douglas Carmody, the Bogeyman. In order to lure the Power Pack out of retirement, the Wizard had this impostor attack an orphanage in the Bronx. Katie urged her siblings to intervene, unaware that this wasn't the real Bogeyman. As the Power Pack located him, he was being cornered by the NYPD. After a brief brawl, the impostor Bogeyman was neutralized by interrupting C.R.A.D.L.E. agents, who intended to arrest Power Pack for violation of Kamala's Law, the Underage Superhuman Welfare Act (punishing unlicensed vigilante justice), as the law had come into full effect that very night at 6 pm, but Julie Power's fast-talking convinced the C.R.A.D.L.E. agents to stand down.; The Wizard had hacked the Underage Superhuman Welfare Act program's database of approved mentors to insert credentials for "Agent Aether", an environmentalist superhero persona fabricated by the Wizard. The Wizard took on this identity to endear himself to the Power Pack and captured them in his lair, but the Power Pack defeated him and took his drone technology into their own hands. They used a hologram of "Agent Aether" to play the part of mentor to them and other young heroes such as Squirrel Girl, allowing these heroes to continue operating during the enforcement of the Act. The Act was later repealed.; At a later point in time, Julie took a break from acting as a superhero to re-enroll at Empire State University and focus on finishing college. But soon enough, she returned to active superheroics when Captain America recruited her to be a founding member of the Avengers Emergency Response Squad.

When a military grade gunship began opening fire, the leader of the Praetorian Guard pushed Richard to the ground, but not before he was clipped on the brow with a bullet. As the Hobgoblin battled the soldiers coming out of the chopper, the Guard ushered Richard out of the office.; Richard Fisk ordered his Praetorian Guard to kill them all and send body parts back to their employers. Hopping into his limo, Fisk was asked by the leader of the Praetorian Guard about the hit on Peter Parker.

+Full name: Power Pack
+Codename: Formerly:; Warriors Four
+First appearance: Power Pack Vol 3 1
+Created by: Marc Sumerak; Gurihiru
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Human Mutates
+Reality: Earth-5631
+Base of operations: New York City
+Notes: This incarnation of Power Pack are the titular stars of 11 miniseries, each consisting of 4 issues.; The first, simply named Power Pack, debuted in 2005 under the Marvel Age (now Marvel Adventures) imprint. Written by Marc Sumerak and penciled by Gurihiru, it mostly ignored previous Power Pack continuity and its versions of the title characters, and appeared to be geared toward young children. Although the four-issue series was not released under the Marvel Age or Marvel Adventures imprint because of editorial decisions, the later series have since been released under the Marvel Adventure imprint and revealed to exist in the Marvel Adventures universe.; A second Power Pack mini-series by the same creative team, X-Men and Power Pack debuted in October 2005. The series guest-starred various members and villains from the X-Men comics, including Cyclops, Wolverine, Sabretooth, Beast, Mystique, and Nightcrawler.; A third Power Pack mini-series, entitled Avengers and Power Pack Assemble! debuted in April 2006. This series teamed the Pack with various members of the Avengers (Captain America, Tony Stark, Spider-Man and Spider-Woman). Issues #3 & #4 were a two-part adventure in which the Pack and the Avengers battled Kang the Conqueror; A fourth Power Pack mini-series, entitled Spider-Man and Power Pack, debuted in November 2006. The series featured Spider-Man and some of his rogue's gallery, such as the Vulture, Sandman, and Venom. The miniseries included two sub-plots: in one, Spider-Man was reduced in age and temporarily joined the Power siblings; the second involved the Venom Symbiote costume.; A fifth Power Pack mini-series, Hulk and Power Pack debuted in March 2007, following the events from the Spider-Man and Power Pack mini-series. The series involved the Hulk and his enemies the Absorbing Man, Abomination, and Zzzax. The mini-series was drawn by David Williams (except for issue #3, which was drawn by Andy Kuhn).; A sixth Power Pack mini-series, Fantastic Four and Power Pack, debuted in July 2007, co-starring the Fantastic Four, who made a previous appearance in issue #3 of the first Power Pack mini-series. Gurihiru returned for the artwork; however, Fred Van Lente replaced Mark Sumerak as writer. The series pitted the Pack against the Fantastic Four's enemies and also featured Franklin Richards (Earth-5631), who was a member of Power Pack as Tattletale in the original series in the Earth-616 Marvel Universe.; A seventh Power Pack mini-series, Iron Man and Power Pack, debuted in November 2007, co-starring Iron Man, who previously appeared in the Avengers & Power Pack: Assemble mini-series. The series was written by Marc Sumerak and the artwork was done by Marcelo Dichiara.; A eighth Power Pack mini-series, entitled Power Pack: Day One debuted in March 2008. The series, which featured the same creative team as Fantastic Four & Power Pack (Fred Van Lente and Gurihiru), focuses on the origins of the team and the incorporation of their honorary member, Franklin Richards. There are also back-up stories about each of the Power siblings with artwork by Colleen Coover.; A ninth series, Skrulls Vs. Power Pack, made its debut in July 2008. The storyline involved the Power Pack encountering the alien Skrulls. This miniseries also introduced the Kymellian Kofi Whitemane to this continuity. The creative team was Fred Van Lente as writer and Cory Hamscher as artist. Gurihiru provided the covers and the colors.; A tenth miniseries, Wolverine and Power Pack, made its debut in November 2008. Wolverine had previously appeared in the X-Men and Power Pack miniseries. The series reunited the original creative team of Marc Sumerak and Gurihiru and also included Scott Koblish. Logan and the four children confronted Sauron, faced the Danger Room, and defended the Xavier school against Sentinels, giant robots programmed for anti-mutant genocide. Logan and Power Pack also had adventures together in 19th-century New York City and present day Tokyo.; An eleventh Power Pack miniseries began April 2010, with Thor appearing and co-headlining, called Thor and the Warriors Four. The creative team was writer Alex Zalben and artwork once again by Gurihiru. Thor and the Power children confront an evil plot of Loki in order to save the Powers' grandmother. The series also contains a back-up adventure of Hercules telling the story of his Twelve Labors while babysitting the Pack.
+Trivia: After moving to New York City the children attended 'Public School 616', a direct reference to the mainstream Marvel reality, Earth-616
+History:
+The Power Pack kids fought off a Snark invader named Skratt and tried to convince Katie not to talk about their exploits as Power Pack on her first day back at school. Katie was at first angry at her Siblings for never letting her do what she wanted, but realized the dangers of people finding out their identities when Skratt showed up at their doorstep.; Power Pack was fighting a Doombot, and Jack eventually defeated it by getting inside the robot and then tore it apart from within. However, Alex scolded Jack for doing such a reckless thing. Later that day the Power Family left on a camping trip, but Jack quickly got bored since he missed the superhero action. That night, he sneaked away to check out a nearby castle. The castle turned out to be the vacation home of Dr. Doom, where he was constructing an army of Doombots. Jack decided to infiltrate the castle and defeat Doom himself, but was quickly taken captive. After his capture, he found out that Johnny Storm was also in the castle, having been captured when he too decided to check out the castle alone. When the rest of Power Pack discovered Jack was gone, they came to the castle and fought off the Doombots. The rest of the Fantastic Four showed up and joined the fight. The Doombots were defeated and Jack and Johnny freed, but Doom managed to escape. Jack, feeling sorry for his actions, invited the Fantastic Four to spend the rest of the camping trip with them.; Power Pack stopped a group of bank robbers. However, Julie was slowly starting to get enough of Alex always ordering the team around, and missed spending time with her friends rather than her siblings. So she decided to quit the team. Skratt the Snark Scout was still after Power Pack. He managed to capture Jeremy, the one robber that got away, and gave him superpowers so they could team up against Power Pack. Together, they attacked the city and demanded Power Pack to surrender. Alex, Jack and Katie tried to fight the two without Julie, but were overpowered and taken captive. When Julie heard about Power Pack's defeat on the news, she rushed home and found her siblings there as part of a trap set by Skratt and Jeremy. She freed them and the four engaged the villains in another battle. Julie lured them into the basement, where Dr. Power was working on an interdimensional portal. Jack opened it and some otherdimensional giant octopus came through the portal, grabbed the villains and dragged them back through the portal into his own dimension. Julie apologized for leaving the team.; Sabretooth threw Jack to the side and attacked Wolverine. Energizer distracted the villain with her power ball attack, and Mass Master knocked Sabretooth into the air, and Lightspeed retrieved him so he could not escape. However, Sabretooth woke up and charged at Mass Master, who once again assumed cloud form, this time letting Wolverine attack the villain with a deciding blow. Wolverine attended the costume party, and explained to the Power kids how the Weapon X Program had sent him and Sabretooth into the woods. Jack won the costume party for his authentic "battle damaged Wolverine" look.; Power Pack was at the Annual Science Expo since their father, James Power, was one of the attendees. Another scientist at the expo was Dr. Henry McCoy, a.k.a. Beast, who demonstrated his latest invention: a device that could detect superpowered people based on their cellular structure. However, he was skeptical when the device identified Julie as a superpowered individual. Unbeknown to the heroes, Mystique was also at the expo and had her eyes set on Dr. McCoy's invention. She disguised herself as Dr. Power and stole the device. Naturally, Dr. Power was arrested for the theft. Power Pack convinced Beast that their father was innocent, and urged him to track down the real culprit. They also revealed his device was right, and that the four of them did have superpowers. The group intercepted Mystique before she could leave the expo. In the fight that followed, Mystique used her powers to impersonate the Juggernaut, gained wings, and imitated Jack Power. Katie however easily figured out who the real Jack was by firing her energy balls at them, making the real Jack turn into a cloud. Finally, Mystique turned in to a giant, purple monster. Julie however defeated her in this form since Mystique could not change her mass, and thus her giant size didn't make her any heavier or stronger than her regular form. Mystique was defeated and Dr. Power released. Beast told Dr. Power that Julie would no doubt become a great scientist one day.; The Power family was visiting the fair where the Circus of Crime had set up their tent. Katie however didn't want to go in since she was afraid of clowns, so Julie and Alex took her to get some popcorn while Dr. Power, Margaret and Jack went to the circus. Along with the rest of the audience, they fell victim to the Ringmaster's hypnotism. When Alex, Katie and Julie finally came to join their parents, they saw the circus members rob the audience and suited up to stop them. They managed to take away Ringmaster's hat and prevented Princess Python from harming the audience, but the tides turned against them when Ringmaster summoned Nightcrawler to fight the heroes. Katie was able to use the ringmasters hat to undo the hypnotism and free Nightcrawler from Ringmasters' control. With Nightcrawler now on their side, Power Pack defeated the Circus of Crime and locked them away. Nightcrawler seized the opportunity to show the audience some of his acrobatics, while Jack learned to his dismay that he missed all the action.; Julie met up with her boyfriend Greg, who revealed to her that he was an intern at a local laboratory. At Julie's request, he took her to see the facility. Once inside, the two of them saw the Marauders coming in, having taken Cyclops captive. Julie called her siblings for help, but Alex was unwilling to come, fearing he would screw up again. Unfortunately, Julie and Greg were found by Greg's boss, Dr. Essex, who turned out to be Mr. Sinister in disguise. Both of them were taken captive as well. Realizing Julie was in trouble, Power Pack went to the lab. With Alex questioning his leadership skills, Jack took the lead, storming head first into battle with the Marauders. When Greg recognized Power Pack as Julies siblings, Julie revealed her secret to him and joined her siblings in battle. Only when he saw Cyclops in danger did Alex snap out of his depression and took back command over the team. He freed Cyclops, and together the five of them defeated the Marauders. Mr. Sinister actually congratulated Power Pack on their victory before teleporting himself and the Marauders away.; Power Pack had just defeated another villain who was taken away by the cops (who didn't believe him when he claimed to have been beaten by superpowered children). After the fight, Alex had to leave for a veterans' retirement home, where his history class had agreed to volunteer. However, all other students had already left. From one of the inhabitants, Mr. MacGinty, they had been sent home since an old war buddy of his was in town. Power Pack noticed Captain America chasing Taskmaster, so they suited up and joined the hero. Taskmaster proved more than a match even for the five of them. After a while, even Cap's old army buddies, fully dressed in their uniforms, joined the battle. This became too much for Taskmaster and he decided to bail out, summoning a flying vehicle to do so. Julie tried to interfere, but lost sight of him when he engaged stealth mode. After the fight, Cap introduced Power Pack to the veterans.; After some investigation, Power Pack tracked down A.I.M. to a warehouse at the docks. However, it turned out A.I.M. was already expecting them and had special weapons to neutralize each of their powers. The team was captured and locked up. Jack however could escape and found the Iron Man armor. Hoping to gain the upper hand (and since it was fun), Jack tried on the armor, but in the process accidently activated it and crashed through the roof. At that moment Tony, as Iron Man, also arrived on the scene and, seeing Jack inside his prototype, mistook him to be the thief. Jack only made the situation worse for himself when he accidently triggered the armors' weapons. Tony quickly disabled the prototype by using a security override he installed. The other members of Power Pack also escaped from their confinement, just when the deactivated suit crashed into the warehouse. Seeing that Jack was inside, the misunderstanding was quickly cleared up. Tony and Power Pack teamed up to take out A.I.M. With the villains defeated, Jack was denied his reward by Tony since he destroyed the prototype.; The Power Family headed for New York since some of Margarets' work got accepted by an art show there. The kids were told to stay in the hotel until their parents got back from the art show, but when they saw Spider-Man being attacked by an unknown opponent, they immediately came to his aid. The attackers turned out to be A.I.M. soldiers dressed in copies of Tony Stark's latest Iron Man armor. Power Pack joined the battle, and soon afterwards the Avengers showed up as well. Tony recognized the armors as being identical to his prototype, and at Jacks' suggestion tried the security override protocol he used on the prototype before. It worked, since A.I.M. apparently copied the fail-safes along with the technology. But before Tony could disable more than 1 suit, he was frozen in time by the real master mind behind the attack: Kang the Conqueror. Kang joined his army in battle and after a brief fight disabled all the Avengers with his chronal disruption field. He wanted to spare Power Pack, stating fighting children was against his honor, but when Power Pack attacked him anyway he used his powers to banish them 10 years into the future, where he had successfully conquered the world. Once there, the team was rescued from Kang's soldiers by their future selves.; The adult Power Pack took their younger selves to their lair, and explained that since the battle 10 years ago Kang had captured or killed every other superhero besides them. Adult Julie figured out that the reason both the young and old Power Pack were here was probably because this future was an alternate timeline from the one that the young Power Pack came from: Earth-68326. When performing a series of tests on Katie, they learned that she had absorbed a large portion of chronal energy from Kang. This, combined with a belt from Kang's armor that the team found earlier, meant she could send herself and her siblings home. A spy working for Power Pack discovered the location where Kang kept the captured heroes. Both Jacks, Adult Katie and Alex, and young Julie set out to free the heroes. They succeeded, but set off an alarm in the process. While the freed heroes fought off Kang's forces, Iron Man brought Julie and Jack back to the lair. Once there, he was quickly brought up to speed about what had happened. Before Katie would send the team back in time, Iron Man gave Jack a modified gauntlet that could instantly send the security override to all of Kang's armors. Katie successfully returned herself and her team to the exact moment Kang originally banished them, and Jack disabled all of Kang's forces. Kang personally tried to fight off Power Pack. After absorbing some more chronal energy from Kangs' gun, Katie sent the villain into a time portal to an unknown destination. After saying goodbye to the Avengers, the team quickly headed back to the hotel before their parents got there.; The Power Family permanently moved to New York City, but Alex and Julie were less than thrilled about this. Jack however insisted that this was a perfect opportunity for their superhero careers, and took his siblings into the city to scout for villains. They came across Sandman robbing a bank, but had to compete with Spider-Man for the right to fight him. The heroes eventually teamed up and flushed Sandman down the sewers using a fire hydrant. Afterwards, Jack gave Spider-Man his visiting card and posed for a group of journalists, but much to his dismay the news that evening barely mentioned the efforts of Power Pack, crediting Spider-Man for taking out Sandman. Spider-Man meanwhile had tracked down Vulture to GlamorGal cosmetics, where the villain hoped to get his hands on a new, experimental formula that could reverse aging. In the fight, Spider-Man fell into a vat of the chemical and was regressed to a child, visiting Power Pack to ask for their help.; Power Pack agreed to help Spider-Man protect New York until they could find a way to restore him to his proper age. Julie made him a new, kid sized costume and the group spent their day taking out multiple members of Spider-Man's rogues gallery. The following morning however, the Daily Bugle and all other newspapers and -stations in New York criticized the young heroes for setting a bad example for kids and being too inexperienced. Peter warned Power Pack that in a city as New York, you had to do something extraordinary to stand out as a hero. Spider-Man and Power Pack headed down to the beach for another showdown with the villain. Using his powers to create a tidal wave, Alex defeated Sandman and in the process also restored Spider-Man to his proper age since seawater undid the effects of the chemical. The press arrived and Power Pack was finally hailed as the heroes Jack wanted them to be.; Rudolpho organized a fashion show in which Mary Jane was one of the models. To thank Power Pack for helping Spider-Man, she had arranged tickets to the show for them. At the show Rudolpho presented his latest creation; clothes that could change shape and appearance to match any situation. However, it soon became clear that these clothes were reverse engineered from the Venom symbiote. When the costumes saw Peter Parker in the audience, they reverted back to their original appearance and turned all the models into copies of Venom. Once more, Power Pack and Spider-Man teamed up to defeat the Venoms. In the fight, Katie almost became a victim of one of the symbiotes. By deploying the symbiotes' weakness for loud sounds, the heroes were able to defeat them and saved the models. The symbiotes were taken away by the guardsmen. Unbeknown to anyone however, it turned out a symbiote did infect Katie.; Power Pack had to fight the Rhino, who easily beat them but for some reason spared Katie. That night Katie became Venom again and attacked Jack before escaping the house. Her siblings followed her to the lair of the Sinister Six. Spider-Man was also there. Power Pack freed him and teamed up with him against the villains. After the villains were defeated, Katie reverted back to normal, feeling guilty for what had happened. It turned out one of the Venom Symbiotes infected her costume with a virus during the fashion show, which caused her to become Venom. The Guardsmen cleaned her costume to remove any traces of Venom, and to console her Spider-Man took Katie for a spin through the city.; Power Pack made quick work of a few villains and headed off to meet their dad and his new lab partner, Bruce Banner; The kids met up with Banner in the subway but their journey was interrupted when they had to help the Hulk take down Absorbing Man.; Power Pack took down a Hydra cell but Katie absorbed a mysterious energy called Specimen Z; While attending a press conference on alternative energy sources hosted by their dad and Bruce Banner, Katie released Specimen Z which turned out to be the electrifying Zzzax; Hulk and Power Pack teamed up to take him down.; Power Pack tried to stay out of the way as Hulk laid into the horde of heroes that had confronted him with questions. The battle raged out of control until Katie absorbed the gamma radiation from the Hulk, turned him back into puny Banne.; Things started heading toward a peaceful conclusion until the gamma rays she had absorbed caused Katie herself to hulk out.; On their way to school, Power Pack saved a man from being hit by a bus. However, they had to go to great lengths to prevent anyone from seeing them, and Jack wondered why they had to keep their superhero lives a secret, unlike the Fantastic Four who were publicly known. A new student joined Jacks class: Franklin Richards, son of Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Woman. He soon got all the attention of his classmates, much to Jack's dismay. Jack decided to drop some waterballoons on Franklin as a payback for stealing the spotlight, but when he saw Franklin getting bullied by Cole and Pete he changed his plan and came to Franklins' aid, saving the boy and humiliating the two bullies in the process. This gained him Franklins friendship. Cole and Pete however swore revenge. They stole the weapons of Cole's father, The Wizard, and attacked Jack and Franklin while the two were in the park along with the rest of Power Pack. Alex, Julie and Katie fought off the two villains, but insisted that Jack couldn't use his powers, or he risked blowing his cover. When the Fantastic Four also showed up, Cole and Pete were easily dealt with. Afterwards, when Jack heard Alex call him 'a reserve' he angrily assumed his cloud form. Angry that Jack could have given away his identity, Alex kicked him out of Power Pack. That night, Jack visited Franklin. Since both of them were fed up with their families, they decided to run away together.; Power Pack and the Fantastic Four noticed the two had gone missing, but unfortunately so did Dr. Doom. While Power Pack quickly figured out where Jack and Franklin were heading to and followed them there, Dr. Doom prevented the Fantastic Four from finding Franklin by jamming the signal from the nanomachines that Reed Richard secretly installed injected in Franklins blood and sent Kraven the Hunter to capture Franklin for him. Franklin and Jack made their way to Jacks' old treehouse, only to find the rest of Power Pack waiting there. Kraven also showed up and tranquilized Franklin. Power Pack fought Kraven and his pack of dogs, and eventually defeated him by collapsing the treehouse on top of him. When Alex suddenly received a phone call from his girlfriend Chrissy Fletcher, Julie realized Alex mainly wanted to keep their identities a secret because of her. While the two argued, Kraven managed to activate a green orb Doom gave him, which captured Katie, Jack and Franklin in a force field and flew them to Latveria. Julie and Alex followed.; Power Pack and Franklin Richards all arrived in Latveria. While Franklin was taken to Castle Doom by the green forcefield, Power Pack had to fight off an army of doombots. They managed to escape from them. In order to hide, Katie led her siblings to the house of her Latverian pen pall Maja. Maja explained to them how Doom ruled as a tyrant. Maja's mother turned out to be Doom's official biographer and agreed to smuggle Power Pack into the castle as part of a guided tour. In the castle, Doom gave Franklin a warm welcome and called the Fantastic Four to let them know where Franklin was. He invited the heroes to come and get Franklin. While Power Pack were on their way to save him, Franklin was given a demonstration by Doom about his many scientific achievements and asked if he would like to become Doom's apprentice. Franklin was tempted, but before he could answer Power Pack burst into the room and attacked Doom. They found themselves outmatched by the villain until suddenly, both Doom and Franklin fell unconscious. The Fantastic Four arrived in the castle and Franklin woke up, seemingly fine. However, it turned out the chocolate froth that Doom gave Franklin earlier actually contained a potion that allowed Doom to switch bodies with Franklin. Doom was then in Franklin's body without anyone knowing, while Franklin was in Doom's paralyzed body, unable to warn his family or friends.; Jack noticed how odd Franklin was behaving, and despite being told not to by Alex he went to the Baxter Building to investigate. Upon arrival Jack was attacked and incapacitated by H.E.R.B.I.E., but the other members of Power Pack arrived before the Fantastic Four could hurt him. A fight between Power Pack and the brainwashed Fantastic Four ensued. In the fight, Jack took the servo chip from Thing and put it on Franklins body. This caused a logical paradox that undid the mind switch, and restored both Franklin and Doom to their proper bodies. Doom was also unparalyzed however and Power Pack had to fight him again. Following Franklins advice, they managed to knock him into a portal to the negative zone. Julie convinced Alex to finally tell their parents about their superhero lives, but later changed her mind when Susan Storm told her about the danger of being a publicly known hero. She was just in time to signal Alex to keep their secret. To thank Franklin for his help, Power Pack gave him his own costume and made him an honorary member.; Power Pack was playing in Central Park when they were suddenly attacked by Ultimo. Tony suited up and joined Power Pack in fighting Ultimo. Ultimo shrugged off all their attacks, and Katie's energy balls only made him bigger and stronger. Iron Man's new armor was also no match for the metal giant. Eventually, Julie was able to smash a hole in Ultimo's armor, after which Iron Man deliberately fed Ultimo some more energy to make him, and thus the hole, grow bigger. This allowed Iron Man to enter Ultimo and tear him up from within while Power Pack distracted him.; Power Pack noticed the kidnapping and pursued the villain, though Julie was reluctant to save her rival. Power Pack traced Blizzard to a warehouse, where the other kidnapper was revealed to be Speed Demon. Speed Demon criticized his partner for leading the heroes straight to their lair. Power Pack fought the villains, but Julie couldn't fully join the battle because Irena might recognize her. When it was clear that they were lost the battle, Speed Demon grabbed Irena and ran off, leaving Blizzard in Power Pack's hands. Julie snatched Blizzards mask to hide her identity and gave chase. She easily caught up with Speed Demon and saved Irena, after which Tony Stark arrived on the scene and arrested Speed Demon.; Puppet Master used the Cyber-Neural Interface that The Ghost stole for him from Tony Stark. He used it to boost his powers so he could take control over inanimate objects as well as people. He tested his new powers by successfully taking control of Titanium Man's armor, sending the villain on an rampage against his will until Power Pack stopped him. Power Pack attended the opening of the exhibit, but to Jack's dismay the museum didn't have a display about them. When Puppet Master began his plan and activated the armors, the young heroes were forced to fight them off while James warned Tony and evacuated all other visitors. Tony suited up and joined Power Pack, but even with five of them they quickly found themselves outmatched by the armors.; Iron Man and Power Pack were still fighting the Puppet Master controlled Iron Man armors in the New York Museum of Super Heroics. After a long and intense battle, the heroes emerged victorious and all armors were destroyed. Power Pack convinced Tony to let them help him track down Puppet Master. Before departing, Tony built all four of them an armored suit of their own, though only with the ability to fly, no weapons. The five found Puppet Master's hideout and Tony destroyed the stolen chip. Puppet Master however had prepared for the arrival of the heroes. He first tried to mind control Tony Stark, but when that failed due to a neural inhibitor in the Iron Man helmet, he used puppets of Power Pack to take control of the four kids. Now under Puppet Masters' control, Power Pack attacked Iron Man. Iron Man managed to fight Power Pack off without hurting the kids, until he could get to Puppet Master and free Power Pack from his control. Puppet Master was arrested and Power Pack would get their own exhibit at the museum. But Jack kept the Power Pack puppets that Puppet Master had made and decided to play with them at home, unintentionally caused his siblings to attack each other.; In the house of the Power family, the 4 kids were helping their parents with the daily chores. Little did the parents know that these four were not their kids, but four Skrull impersonators sent to Earth by Warpriest Kh'oja. The Powers were celebrating Franklin Richards’ birthday at the local bowling center when they suddenly came under attack by 2 alien bounty hunters named Abercombie and Finch. Backed up by Franklin, who had received his own super costrume and a set of usefull gadgets from his father, Power Pack tried to fight the Aliens off. Sadly all four of them were captured and Franklin seemingly killed. As soon as the bounty hunters left with Power Pack, the four Skrull impersonators took their place. The real Power Pack now found itself on Patchworld, where they were standing trial for crimes they supposedly committed like plundering the archives of the wanderers of the Black Galaxy (Katie), stealing the Reliquary of Truth from the planetoid of Aves (Alex), stealing the never decoded Tabernacle of the Ethereals (Julie) and looting the sacred knowledge-troves of the Taurians (Jack). The trial was overseen by High Lord Byrel. Power Pack received help from Kofi Whitemane, cousin of the late Aelfyre Whitemane, who vowed to defend Power Pack during the trial. Warpriest Kh'oja acted as the accuser. Kofi tried to buy time to prepare his case, which Byrel granted him, but Byrel insisted that Power Pack would be sent to the Reform School Planet Hadith VI while waiting the continuation of their trial. Franklin, who survived the fight after all, returned home and found Herbie cooking dinner. Using the pendant that Jack gave them during a previous adventure, Franklin summoned smartship Friday and set out to find Power Pack. The four kids were trapped in a surreal world from which there seemed no escape.; Franklin and H.E.R.B.I.E. were on their way to Hadith IV in Smartship Friday, and along the way learned from Kofi that Power Pack were now officially wanted criminals on Patchworld. On Hadith IV, Power Pack tried to escape the cell they were captured in. After a while, the kids figured out they were being held captive in Elsewhere, the same pocket dimension their costumes went to when not in use. By deactivating their costumes, they were able to breach the dimension and escape. Friday arrived just in time and picked them up. Since going back to Earth would only endanger their parents, Power Pack set out to clear their name first. Power Pack began their quest on the Skrull world Satriani. In an attempt to lure the imposters that got them in trouble out, Power Pack assumed new identities and started acting like the criminals everybody thought they were. To prove they meant business, they defeated a Kree heavy naval strike force in a bar brawl. The owner of the bar, Glorish, saw this and hired Power Pack to retrieve weapons for him on the planet. Power Pack succeeded in stealing the weapons, but upon meeting with the smugglers that they were supposed to give them to, the team was ambushed by Warpriest Kh'oja, who revealed he had the same powers as the team.; Power Pack faced off against Warpriest Kh'oja, but since the priest had all of their powers combined and more experience with how to use them, they quickly found themselves on the losing end. H.E.R.B.I.E. called for Smartship Friday to come and pick them up, but Friday was attacked by another smartship, Letha. While Power Pack did what they could to stop Kh’oja, H.E.R.B.I.E. and Franklin left the space station to help Friday. They managed to infiltrate Letha, and activated her manual override controls. Once Letha was deactivated, Franklin discovered that the artifacts supposedly stolen by Power Pack were on board, proving that Kh’oja was behind the false acquisitions. When Franklin tried to take the artifacts, he accidently ended up activating a holographic projection. The hologram depicted a prophecy about Eternity’s Children; 3 super powered children, one of which would try to annihilate the universe, one who would oppose him, and one who would perish in the fight between the former two. The hologram ended with a map of a planetoid where the second part of the prophecy could be found, which would reveal on what planet these 3 children were born. Realizing that this was no doubt what Kh’oja was truly after, Franklin decided they must get to this planetoid first. When Kh’oja heard that Power Pack now knew about the Prophecy, his anger distracted him long enough for Alex to knock him out. Power Pack boarded Friday and set off to the planetoid. The four Skrulls posing as Power Pack revealed their true colors and took out Dr. Power, so they could use his badge to accessed the S.W.O.R.D. orbital headquarter Peak VII and gained access to Earths securest planetary defenses. Including a device that would allow the Skrulls to end the blockade imposed on their planet; a planetary force field disruptor. Paibok was still tempted to stay on Earth however. Finally, just as he and his fellow Skrulls obtained the disruptor, he decided to abandon his mission. He put the other 3 to sleep with his gun, and planned to get rid of the real Power Pack so he could permanently take over Jack Powers life.; Power Pack arrived at the planetoid first, and set out to find the second half of the prophecies before Kh’oja arrived. Friday warned them that the prophecy was the source of a violent fight between two warring sects on Patchworld; one that wanted to preserve Eternity’s Children and one that wanted to destroy them. Power Pack solved the first one, but found themselves under attack by Kh’oja when trying to figure out the second one. Alex was able to knock out Kh’oja and Power Pack proceeded. Power Pack also solved the third riddle and the door to the last room opened. Kh’oja fought himself a way past Power Pack and entered the room first, which contained the skeletal remains of several alien graverobbers who tried to steal the prophecy first, and multiple stone boxes. One skeleton was holding a box. Kh’oja took it, but the box proved to be empty. He tried another box, which was also empty. While Kh’oja continued in vain to open the various boxes, Power Pack noticed the room was being sealed again and quickly escaped. With Kh’oja now imprisoned, Power Pack returned to Friday, only to be confronted by their Skrull imposters. Paibok had placed inhibitor collars on the other 3 Skrulls to make them his servants, and they attacked Power Pack with Cocoon cannons stolen from S.W.O.R.D.. Fortunately for Power Pack, Abercombie and Finch also showed up on the planetoid, having been tasked with recapturing Power Pack. Thinking the Skrulls were the real Power Pack, the bounty hunters captured them and took them back to the reform planet. Friday removed the cocoons from Power Pack and the group left the planetoid. Franklin revealed he realized that not the boxes, but the puzzles contained the real prophecy. Each of the 3 puzzles revealed some information about Eternity’s children, if you interpreted them correctly. Putting all the information together, Power Pack realized that the Prophecy revealed Earth to be the homeplanet of Eternity’s Children. The story ended with Power Pack wondering if perhaps they themselves were the children of the prophecy.; The Power Pack kids found themselves in the lecture as Dr. Lykos droned on about the Savage Land. He called Alex to the stage to be his "special volunteer." Dr. Lykos absorbed Alex's energy and the rest of the Power Pack attacked the professor to save their brother. The man rapidly transformed into a pterodactyl and called himself Sauron. He cast a hypnotic spell on the children. Wolverine asked Power Pack to help him deal with Sauron. Instead, the Power Pack turned on him and started attacking Wolverine at Sauron's command. The team shielded Sauron, and Wolverine charged at them with his claws out. In the past, the Power Pack surrounded Wolverine, who escaped with some quick maneuvering. He threw a dinosaur bone at Zero-G, causing the whole T-Rex skeleton to collapse and snapping the kids out of their hypnosis. The Power Pack directed all their energy at Sauron, knocking him down. Mass Master imprisoned Sauron in a dinosaur skeleton and Wolverine offered them to visit Xavier's Institute. Alex, however, first had to write his history report.; After having been invited to visit Xavier Institute by Wolverine, Power Pack was in the danger room, fighting against a group of dinosaurs in the Savage Land. They defeated the dino's, though Katie severely damaged one of the training robots. Afterwards they got a tour of the institute and met some of the students. Jack immediately fell in love with Kitty Pryde and gladly visited the class she was teaching. She didn't return the feelings however. After class ended, Power Pack asked Wolverine why they couldn't come to Xavier's Institute, since the whole idea behind the school was teaching humans and mutants to co-exist. Wolverine warned them about the dangers of being a mutant, and how the school frequently came under attack. He was immediately proven right when a group of Sentinels attacked the school. Power Pack teamed up with the X-Men to take the giant robots down, but Cyclops insisted that Power Pack should stay out of this since they were not mutants, and this wasn't their fight. Power Pack at first reluctantly agreed, but changed their minds when they found out the Sentinels didn't consider them a threat since they were not mutants, thus gave them a great advantage for launching a surprise attack. Power Pack easily defeated the Sentinels and saved the school. Cyclops appologized for not realizing the kids' potential. But then that they had seen the dangers of being at a mutant school, Power Pack no longer had any intention to be enrolled in Xaviers Institute.; Jack and Frank played in Dr. Richards' lab, using a negatron deconflagulator to create a force field. H.E.R.B.I.E. and Katie told them to stop, but a time platform caught Frank's eye. Jack and Frank used it to go back to the past. Katie called Julie for backup to help retrieve the two time travelers. Jack and Frank arrived over one hundred years in the past. They walked through the street of New York and found a group of bullies picking on a small rich kid. Frank scared the bullies by using an image inducer to transform into the Hulk. Jack invited the Canadian boy named James Howlett to join them on a sightseeing tour around the city. A man and his thugs kidnapped the three kids, and planned on using James as ransom for his wealthy father. Jack and Frank broke free from their kidnappers, but they gained the upper hand. The rest of the Power Pack showed up and helped them with the fight. H.E.R.B.I.E. identified Franklin and Jack's genetic signatures, but stopped after scanning James Howlett's, said it could not be correct. Jack and Frank returned James back to his father and Power Pack went back to the future. H.E.R.B.I.E told the Power Pack that James Howlett's genetic signature matched Wolverine's, much to the team's astonishment.; Using a video from one of their training sessions, Jack signed Alex up for his favorite Japanese Game Show called "Ninja Master". The whole idea was that with his gravity powers, which he could use without anyone noticing, unlike the rest of Power Pack, Alex should easily be able to complete the obstacle courses. Alex was reluctant at first, but Jack managed to convince him, so the family headed off to Japan. Thanks to his powers, Alex easily made it through the first round, though he kept having second thoughts about using his powers for personal gain. That night, while in their hotel in Tokyo, Power Pack saw Wolverine, locked in a fight with a group of Ninja's called The Hand. They rushed to his aid and at first easily overpowered the ninja's, until The Hand used a magic spell to cancel out all of the heroes' powers. Power Pack was out of the game. Wolverine however kept fighting like always despite the temporary loss of his healing factor or enhanced senses because, as he stated, real power came from within. After a while, The Hand retreated and Wolverine walked off into Tokyo. The next day the teams' powers were working again, but having taken Wolverine's advise to heart, Alex tried to make it through the next round of Ninja Master without using them. It didn't end well and he was disqualified. His parents and sisters were still proud of him however, unlike Jack.; Power Pack was in the hospital to visit their grandmother, who was dying from old age. Before they were hushed out of her room because visiting hours were over, a nurse gave Julie a book about Norse mythology. The kids were frustrated that despite their powers they could not help their grandmother. However, in the book she just received, Julie read about the Golden Apples of Idunn, the source of immortality and eternal youth for the Norse gods. Alex was skeptical about these myths being real, but Julie pointed out that since Thor was real, the Asgardians must have been real too. A lightning strike drew the kids attention to Central Park, where they found the Pet Avengers battling a pack of Wargs. The two teams worked together to subdue the Wargs, after which Throg agreed to help Power Pack find a way into Asgard. He opened a portal for them and Power Pack used the Wargs to go through it, emerging at the Bifrost. Alex however found it suspicious that both Frog Thor and the Wargs happened to show up at just the moment the team needed them.; Power Pack arrived in Asgard at the Bifrost. They were greeted by an old man pulling a chart full of merchandise. He identified himself as Koil, the half-giant son of Laufey from Jotunheim and turned out to be on a quest to find the Golden Apples as well. He explained that Humans were not allowed into Asgard, so he provided the team with clothes to disguise them as Asgardians. The kids promised to bring him some of the apples. The disguises worked since Power Pack could easily walk past Heimdall. They heard screams from a girl who was being attacked by a group of Dwarfs, and rescued her. When she called them ‘warriors four’, the kids decided to adopt this as their Asgardian team name and proceeded to perform some more heroics. Finally, they went to Thor’s favorite tavern and met up with the real Thor and Beta Ray Bill. Thor was impressed by the young heroes stories of their adventures, and shared a story of his own about how Loki once tricked him into losing Mjolnir and he had to retrieve it from the castle of the Giant King Hrymer. Hrymer would only give back Mjolnir if Thor could best him in a series of tests, which Thor managed to do. Jack, finding Thor’s tale boring, told a story about a young Frost Giant losing one of his teeth and a wise old goddess helping him find it back. With all their tales told, Katie asked Thor for the golden apples, but Thor could not give them to any non-gods. Then Hrymer suddenly showed up and attacked the tavern since he still wanted revenge for how Thor bested him and reclaimed Mjolnir. Power Pack assisted Thor and together they defeated the Giant. To thank them for their help, Thor promised to ask Odin permission to give Power Pack some of the golden apples. When the heroes had left however, Hrymer was approached by Koil, who turned out to be Loki in disguise. And he was not alone; Enchantress was with him. At Loki’s command, she cast a spell. Once Power Pack, Thor and Beta Ray Bill reached Odin’s throne room, the spell was activated and everyone except Power Pack was turned into a baby.; All Asgardians had been turned into babies, and Power Pack had their hands full to keep order. Alex and Julie tried to figure out a way to undo the transformations, but had conflicting idea’s about the best approach. Loki, Enchantress and Hrymer moved onto the next part of their plan; got their hands on the Golden Apples. They once more disguised themselves as Koil, Koil’s wife and their pet, and met up with Power Pack. As Koil, Loki successfully tricked Power Pack into agreeing to get the Golden Apples for him now that Idunn was no longer capable of doing so. Only Alex disagreed since taking the apples without Odin’s permission or Idunn’s help would be stealing. He stayed behind with Koil and the young Odin while Jack, Julie, and Katie, along with the young Thor and Beta Ray Bill, set out to the house of Idunn. Jack got them past the door of Aesir by using his powers to sneak through a crack. Julie figured out how to get past the Path of Vanir, and Katie defeated the guardian of the apple trees: Rattatosk. Once in Idunn’s house, Katie was able to convince the baby-Idunn to give her the gasket that could hold the apples. Since they could not touch the apples, the kids used their powers to harvest them. With their task completed they returned to Odin’s throneroom and handed the apples to Koil, who promptly revealed his true identity as Loki and had Enchantress capture the heroes.; Loki’s plan had worked; he was the nurse who gave Julie the book of Norse Mythology in the hospital, hoping it would inspire her to get the apples for her grandmother. He also sent the Wargs to attack the Pet Avengers in order to give Power Pack access to Asgard. The Asgardian clothes he gave Power Pack while posing as Koil contained gems that allowed Enchantress’ de-aging spell to work within the walls of Asgard. And then he tricked them into giving him the Golden Apples, which he would share with Hrymer and the Frost Giants so they could gain eternal youth while the Asgardians would grow old and die with only Loki being left to rule Asgard. Power Pack tried in vain to fight back, but Loki had already summoned his army of Frost Giants to take over Asgard. The Asgardians meanwhile began to turn back from babies to their regular age, but without the golden apples they would keep aging and the golden apples could not be taken by force; one had to willingly hand them over, which Loki was unlikely to do. However, Loki’s plan turned out to have a major flaw; the rapid aging of the Asgardians had unwittingly started Ragnarok and awoken Jormungand, who attacked Asgard. The Pet Avengers showed up to help in battle, but both Thor and Frog Thor were no match for the giant serpent. Knowing he was destined to die by Jormungand’s teeth at Ragnarok, Thor surrendered on condition that Jormungand would spare the others. Alex however interfered, grabbed Mjolnir and attacked Jormungand. Since he then wielded Thor’s hammer, he also gained Thor’s powers and costume. At Julie’s suggestion, Thor destroyed the gems in Power Pack’s costumes, which caused Enchantress’ spell to backfire against her, Loki and Hrymer. All three turned into babies, and Julie easily tricked baby-Loki into giving her the Golden Apples. With the apples back in the hands of the Asgardians, Ragnarok was averted and Jormungand retreated. Thor returned Power Pack to Earth, where their grandmother had undergone a surprising discovery. She claimed a new doctor, Donald Blake, just had her some apple sauce. The doctor was actually Thor in disguise, and the sauce contained some of the Golden Apple.

+History:
+Formed by the long time and well respected master criminal known only as the "Old One", Poison, Incorporated was a group of criminals who were hired out to murder people using poison exclusively. Their first customer was construction company owner John Bradley, who hired Poison Inc. in 1942 to eliminate Corky, the editor of the Star newspaper due to his accusations of paying politicians graft money. The Old One had his men break into the Star newspaper offices and rig Corky's typewriter with a poison coated needle on the shift key. The next day, when Corky went to work on his latest editorial on Bradley, he was killed instantly by the poison.; Poison Inc. also succeeded in eliminating another man: Mugsy Murdock, a racketeer who was ordered to be rubbed out by a rival gangster. Murdock was tricked into a meeting with the Old One who provided him with a poisoned cigar.; By this time, the hero known as the Terror, while investigating the death of Corky, learned of the organization's existence and roughed up the men at its secret hideout while the Old One was on the Mugsy Murdock job. Arriving too late to prevent the murder of Murdock, the Terror was knocked out and tossed into the river to drown by the Old One's thugs.; Surviving the attempt on his life, the Terror went back to Poison Inc.'s secret hideout and defeated the entire gang. When the authorities arrived, the Old One -- preferring death to capture -- smoked one of his own poisoned cigarettes, killing himself. The rest of the gang was taken into police custody.

+Created by: Marc Sumerak
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-68326
+History:
+This incarnation of Power Pack are alternate, adult versions of the Earth-5631 Power Pack, so most of their history is identical to that team. They were one of the few teams of superheroes that remained active after Kang the Conqueror captured the Avengers and conquered the world. In the 10 years that followed, they kept opposing Kang from the shadows, trying to find the missing Avengers. The tides turned when they met their younger Earth-5631 counterparts, who had been send here by Kang. Teaming up, both Power Pack teams were able to locate and rescue the Avengers. When this was done, they successfully helped their younger selfs to get back to their own time and prevent Kang from ever conquering the world in the first place. This most likely erased this version of Power Pack from existence since their timeline never came to be.

Spider-Man next took them to park, but they wouldn't be allowed in unless they were registered with Iron Man. This increased the conflict between Iron Man and Captain America, but Spider-Man and Power Pack left to go play with the X-Men before they were forced to choose a side.

+History:
+The past history of Power Pack on Earth-9997 mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts. At some point in their history, the youngest member of Power Pack, Kate Power, perished in an undisclosed manner. The three surviving members one day assaulted a homeless to appropriate the cape in her possession, ignoring that the homeless was in fact Tandy Bowen and the cape was that of his former partner Tyrone Johnson, who also died in a non-revealed manner. The cape worked yet despite Tyrone was not in control of it and was revealed that the cape was a passage to the Realm of the Dead. The cape swallowed the three members of Power Pack, but only one, Alex Power, was saved with the help of Captain America while Jack and Julie were transported in the Realm of the Dead reaching their sister Kate which Alex had glimpsed as he was about to be swallowed by the cape.

+Reality: Earth-18119
+Base of operations: Regency, Battleworld, Earth-15513
+Affiliation: S.H.I.E.L.D.
+Equipment: Power Pack Uniforms
+Notes: Since they all look like children rather than teenagers, and go to the same school as 8-year old Annie Parker, it can be assumed that all members of this incarnation of Power Pack are roughly the same age as their Earth-616 counterparts were when they first received their powers. However, that would suggest that at least Katie (and possibly Jack) wasn't even born yet when Regent rose to power, and all of them must have gotten their powers when Regent was already ruling.
+History:
+The Power Pack was a super hero team operating in Regency. They presumably got their powers in the same manner as their Earth-616 counterpart, but due to Regent having taken over the domain and hunting down all superpowered individuals, they had to keep their powers a secret.; Later, either Energizer or Lightspeed accidentally used their powers in school. When the Regent's agents came for them, Spider-Man came out of retirement and covered their escape. While on the run, the Power Pack was found and recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D.. There, they quickly befriended Annie Parker and even helped her make her own costume.

+The history of this incarnation of Power Pack most likely mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts; the siblings Alex, Katie, Jack and Julie received their powers from a dying Kymellian, and used them to first rescue their parents from another alien race called the Snarks, and then become a superhero team.; When Deadpool went even more insane than before and started killing off all superpowered individuals on Earth, heroes and villains alike, Power Pack were among the many heroes that he slayed. When Taskmaster, who had been hired to stop Deadpool, followed the murdering maniak’s trail of bodies, he came across the remains of Deadpools battle with Power Pack; the crashed Smartship Friday, and Jack Power’s costume, thorn to shreds. Seeing this made Taskmaster even more determined to stop Deadpool no matter what, rather than just doing it for the money.

When they entered the local saloon, they found Outlaw, who had just won a big bar fight, and when Domino and Diamondback saw this, they decided it would be a good idea to add her to their team. The meeting between them did not start very well and resulted in a fight, but despite this rough start, they finally got her to listen to them. Shortly after explaining to Outlaw that Professor Salvage was anti-mutant, he decided to attack the saloon with a murder sport utility vehicle. It was then that Outlaw joined the posse and went on to battle against Professor Salvage with them.

+Trivia: Iron Man and The Illuminati learned about the Pride some time ago, but agreed to an uneasy truce in exchange for the Pride not interfering with the neighborhood of Imperio and the company Stark had founded there, Imperio Techworks.
+History:
+===Origins===; Requiring mortal acolytes to serve them on Earth, the Gibborim summoned twelve individuals (six married couples) to their Marine Vivarium. In exchange for sacrificing human souls to them, the Gibborim promised wealth, power, and influence to their potential servants during the remainder of their mortal lives. Additionally, the Gibborim promised that six of them that served the Gibborim the most faithfully would be rewarded and saved from the Gibborim's scourging of Earth and allowed to rule in paradise while the remaining six would perish with the rest of humanity. Each couple agreed to the Gibborim's terms, and The Pride was formed.; ===The Pride===; As promised, the Pride gained wealth and power and became the covert rulers of L.A.'s criminal empire. Every year, the Pride gathered at the Wilder Estate, ostensibly for an annual charity fundraiser, while in reality, they would perform the "Rite of Blood," a ritual sacrifice of an innocent and unwilling human; the spirit of this victim would then be fed to the Gibborim in the subsequent "Rite of Thunder". The person sacrificed every year was usually taken from the neighborhood of Imperio and was more often than not a young woman.; Three years after the formation of the Pride, Janet Stein became pregnant. After some discussion, the decision was made that each couple would conceive one child, and those six children would inherit the Gibborim's reward and place in paradise. This agreement also ended the open struggle between the members of the Pride.; Working together, the Pride ruled over their criminal empire with vision and efficiency for a quarter of a century with few real challenges to their power.; Six months before their deaths, Gene and Alice Hayes conspired with Frank and Leslie Dean to betray and murder the other Pride members. As (artificial) mutants and aliens, they had a shared disdain for humans. It was the accidental discovery of this plot that led Alex Wilder to begin scheming to save his parents and the Minoru family that eventually led to his death and the deaths of the Pride.; ===Runaways===; One year after discovering the Pride and the secret plans of the Hayes' and Deans, Alex Wilder led the Pride's others children to discover their parents murdering Destiny Gonzales during "The Rite of Blood". Terrified by what they discovered, the children decided to run away.; With the help of Lieutenant Flores and the L.A.P.D., the Pride framed their children for the murder of Destiny to force their children out of hiding and prevent them from telling the truth. While searching for the children, the Pride killed vampires, threatened police, and continued to manipulate monitoring systems. After Lieutenant Flores brought Cloak and Dagger to L.A. to search for the kids, Catherine Wilder shot him in his leg and the Hayes' erased Cloak and Dagger's memories, preventing them from sharing information with other superheroes. During all this time, the Pride continued to prepare for the upcoming "Rite of Thunder".; On the night of the "Rite of Thunder", the Runaways followed the Pride into the Marine Vivarium. After manipulating his teammates into defeat, Alex Wilder revealed himself as the Pride's mole and shared how he had learned about the Pride, and the Hayes' and Deans' plot of betrayal. However, before the arrival of the Gibborim, the Runaways were able to defeat Alex and Molly Hayes was able to destroy the device imprisoning Destiny's soul. The Gibborim arrive furious that their sacrifice was not ready and immediately killed Alex while threatening to murder all the Pride and their progeny. While everyone in the Pride was killed, the Runaways were able to narrowly escape the destruction of the Marine Vivarium in the Leapfrog.; ===New Pride===; Depressed after finding out about Alex Wilder's death, his friends from his online MMORPG began planning to bring him back. Together they researched the Pride and used the Abstract to cast a spell to retrieve Alex from the past before he died. During the ceremony, Oscar died and a young Geoffrey Wilder was summoned to the present instead of Alex.; Believing that Alex and the Pride were the "good guys", Hunter, Stretch, and Lotus formed The New Pride with the young Geoffrey Wilder. To gather more information about the Runaways, Geoffrey posed as Chamber using the Minorus' Chameleon Glamour Charm and joined a rival group of teen superheroes called Excelsior.; Once the New Pride had gathered enough information, they directly confronted the Runaways and kidnapped Molly Hayes. Geoffrey offered to sacrifice Molly's soul to the Gibborim if they promised to reunite him with his wife. During the rescue, Geoffrey seemingly murdered Gertrude Yorkes.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Genosha
+History:
+The Press Gang was a group of mutant enforcers working for the government of Genosha.; The mutant residents on the island nation were enslaved by the law, and were genetically altered by the Genegineer into Genoshan Mutates, devoid of free will. They performed any task needed from hard labor to soldiering.; The Press Gang was created to retrieve mutants who attempted leave and defect to other countries, as this action was not recognized by Genoshan law.; The Press Gang was an official branch of the Genoshan police force known as the Magistrates. The squad consisted of three field operatives and one support operative. It was discovered by the X-Man, Havok, that they were actually mutants working voluntarily for the government, rather than enslaved Genoshan Mutates.

+Full name: Prime Sentinels
+Other aliases: Bio-Sentinels; Nimrod Omega Sentinels; Omega Prime Sentinels; Sentinels; Transmode Sentinels
+First appearance: X-Men Vol 2 65
+Created by: Scott Lobdell; Carlos Pacheco
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Prime Sentinels are humans outfitted with nanotechnology to hunt. Many were unaware of this fact until their programming engaged.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Prospero Clinic
+Weapons: ===Abilities===; Prime Sentinels were equipped with several technological superpowers derived from nanotech: flight, super strength, force-blasts, the ability to transform cannonry out of body parts, as well as being able to dampen or disrupt the powers of mutants around them. They had combat computers, which allowed them to compensate for surprising events, such as the arrival of police cars, faster than normal humans. Their programming could also use the natural personality of the host to lull unsuspecting targets into conversation, at which point they would dampen their powers and kill them. One of their deadliest abilities was the capacity to inject anyone with nanomachines that would forcibly convert the target into a Prime Sentinel.; Omega Prime Sentinels, like Karima Shapandar, possessed functions and equipment that far outstripped standard Prime Sentinels. Omega Prime Sentinels mimicked the qualities of fully robotic Sentinels while incorporating designs similar to the Nimrods of a divergent future. Nevertheless, their biomechanical functions remained roughly the same, though adaptive protocols allowed modifications when facing new threats. Functions included rocket-boosted flight, superhuman strength, enhanced speed, stamina, durability, regenerative properties, electromagnetic capabilities, and advanced mutant-detection sensory systems.; What set an Omega apart from a standard Prime Sentinel, showcased by Karima, was the ability to produce nanobionic constructs from their bodies using onboard technology, enabling direct interfacing and commandeering of cybernetic systems and machinery. Omega Prime Sentinels also carried vast analytical combat computers, allowing rapid countermeasure generation against mutant abilities.; Their energy projection functions were highly versatile, enabling manipulation of heat, cold, electricity, plasma, and radiation across the EM spectrum. Karima demonstrated control over electromagnetic phenomena, such as discharging bolts of lightning and launching ferrous projectiles through magnetic induction. Defensively, she could manifest protective energy barriers able to resist Cyclops' optic blasts, Random's plasma, and Magneto's magnetic force.; The Omega Prime Sentinel nanotechnology also granted metamorphic abilities. They could extend and mold their bodies like taffy, morph their limbs into advanced weaponry, and alter appearances to infiltrate enemy strongholds or blend into their environment.; ===Weaknesses===; Despite their formidable abilities, Prime Sentinels and Omega Prime Sentinels possessed a number of exploitable weaknesses. Because they were converted from unwilling human hosts, their biology imposed limits on durability, and severe trauma or energy overload could destabilize their nanotech systems. Their programming, directed by onboard combat computers, was also vulnerable to interference; skilled telepaths such Jean Grey and Cable were able to override their protocols and temporarily disable them. In some cases, their adaptive nanotechnology could be turned against itself, as when Jubilee destabilized a Prime Sentinel by forcing its defenses into overload.; Another critical weakness lay in their lingering humanity. Since Prime Sentinels retained elements of the host's personality, some experienced hesitation or outright rebellion when confronted with their own nature. Daria exemplified this by defying Bastion and assisting Jubilee's escape. As biomechanical organisms, they were also susceptible to electromagnetic disruption; mutants such as Magneto could interfere with their systems or force shutdowns.
+Notes: Rogue tried to use her personality-absorbing on one of the Prime Sentinels only to find nothing at all: she then stated that nothing of the original host remained once the Prime Sentinel personality had taken over, though this was questionable as Magneto and Professor X were able to restore Karima's personality.; Prototype Omega Sentinels were developed by a human sanction refuge near Down Acres, California.
+Trivia: }
+History:
+===Creation===; The were created by Bastion, an advanced Sentinel/human hybrid born from the merger of Master Mold and Nimrod who went through the Siege Perilous. Seeking to replace the outdated machines of Project: Wideawake, Bastion secretly converted ordinary humans into sleeper agents through invasive nanotechnology as part of Operation Zero Tolerance. These individuals lived normal lives until activated, at which point the nanotech restructured their bodies into cybernetic killing machines programmed to hunt mutants.; At facilities such as the Prospero Clinic, unsuspecting patients were implanted with Sentinel technology under the guise of medical treatment. Once activated, they gained flight, enhanced strength, energy projection, adaptive weaponry, and the ability to dampen or disrupt mutant powers. One of their deadliest abilities was the capacity to inject targets with nanotech, forcibly converting them into additional Prime Sentinels.; ===Deployment===; The Prime Sentinels were first activated during Operation: Zero Tolerance, ambushing the returning X-Men during their flight over Colorado. Despite resistance from Cyclops, Storm, Jean Grey, Wolverine, and Cannonball, the team was defeated and captured, marking the Prime Sentinels' first major victory.; In Missouri, members of the Mutant Liberation Front and X-Force discovered that hostages had been transformed into Prime Sentinels, triggering violent clashes with both teams. In New York, Prime Sentinels disguised as police officers and bodyguards attacked Henry Gyrich during an ambush by Marrow and Callisto, only to be destroyed by Spider-Man when their lack of restraint endangered civilians.; ===Generation X===; Several members of Generation X were also pursued by Prime Sentinels. In Venice, California, Skin and his teammates sought refuge with friends and family, only to be betrayed to Zero Tolerance and hunted through the sewers. Later, Prime Sentinels attacked Skin's cousin’s garage, resulting in a massive explosion that destroyed the Sentinels but left Generation X battered.; ===Prospero's Clinic and Mass Activation===; The X-Men later uncovered the truth behind Dr. Prospero’s clinic in New Mexico: it was a front for implanting unsuspecting patients with Prime Sentinel technology. When the facility was destroyed, Bastion retaliated by activating sleeper Prime Sentinels across the country, including individuals such as Mustang, a resident of Prospero's trailer park.; ===Defeat===; The Prime Sentinel program collapsed after Senator Robert Kelly withdrew political support from Operation: Zero Tolerance, prompting S.H.I.E.L.D. to intervene and shut it down. With OZT dissolved, the remaining Prime Sentinels were deactivated, though many continued to live in fear of their latent condition.; ===Legacy===; Though the program was dismantled, some individuals survived their transformation. Karima Shapandar became one of the most well-known survivors, evolving into an Omega Prime Sentinel with far greater control over her abilities.

+History:
+Project Glamor was a secret, illegal conspiracy led by General Selbert and Lieutenant Colonel Jody Choate, and authorized by the White House, went on to support the anti-communist guerrillas in Central American Costa Dinora using the proceeds of a drug trafficking operation (officially an anti-drug operation) in Colombia, with bank accounts in both Colombia and Switzerland. The conspiracy also involved the sale of Latverian-produced weapons, a Satanist cult, grey-market arms dealers, murderous mercenaries, and an attempt to produce super-soldier serum at the Freedom Science Studies Institute, California, based on the serum developed years earlier by Dr. Ted Sallis, who had turned Sallis into the monstrous Man-Thing. The FSSI performed unauthorized experiments on human subjects. Project Glamor leaders Selbert and Choate were harassed by the Congress, until Choate decided to confess partially, accepting the whole blame in a televised statement in an attempt to earn sympathies of the public. However, the situation escalated with the investigation of journalist Michael Ditillio, and the desertion of Satanist leader Demon when she obtained control of the Man-Thing.; In the end, Selbert and Choate were both killed, but parts of the conspiracy continued active.

+History:
+The three kids that would form Project Communion were living in an orphanage in Boston when they were affected by the Terrigen Cloud, mutating them and granting them psionic powers.; They eventually fell in the hands of Hydra. S.H.I.E.L.D. deployed Clint Barton and Kate Bishop at the Antarctic Hydra base where the children were being kept to take possession of Project Communion.; During the mission, Bishop discovered Project Communion wasn't a weapon but innocent children. The children were freed and later handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D.. Kate and Clint feared that what S.H.I.E.L.D. would want with the kids could not better than what Hydra was using them for, specially after S.H.I.E.L.D. director Maria Hill revealed that she had her hands tied to interfere with the orders she was following. Hill hinted that even though she couldn't do anything Clint and Kate could retrieve the children themselves.; The two Hawkeyes proceeded to locate and free the children. They subsequently stole a flying car and took the kids to Barton's apartment building in Brooklyn, where they took it upon themselves to keep the kids safe.; Hydra quickly tracked down the kids, and launched an attack on the apartment building. In order to protect their new guardians, the kids unleashed their destructive powers, killing the Hydra soldiers standing before them. This course of action caused Clint to question if they were truly safe with the kids. Kate and Clint argued over the kids, and Kate was ultimately forced to bitterly hand them over to Hydra when reinforcements arrived.; S.H.I.E.L.D. retrieved the kids and placed them in a S.H.I.E.L.D. facility in Colorado. However, the building was raided by Hydra agents and the kids fell back under their control.; Clint Barton was joined by a team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to retrieve Project Communion from transport. Kate Bishop and Barton's brother Barney had infiltrated Hydra and moved the children from the main transport to one of the escort vehicles. In the middle of the retrieval operation, Barton shot an arrow at the main vehicle, causing it to derail, crash, and explode, successfully making it appear as if the kids had perished in that accident. While Maria Hill realized Barton had been up to something, she let it slide. Kate, Barney, and the kids later met up with Clint to return home.; After a brief fight against Hydra agents who had tracked them down, Clint, Barney, and Kate managed to bring Project Communion to Barney's private island, so they could be safe and protected.

+Project: Gladiator was a S.H.I.E.L.D.-backed project to recreate the Super Soldier Serum that created Captain America. Headed up by Dr. Wilma Calvin her team for this consisted of Dr. Ted Sallis, chemist Bobbi Morse, Dr. Paul Allen, a medical doctor named Wendell, and a technician named Jim.; Between Sallis' girlfriend, Ellen Brandt, and Allen, who was really an agent of A.I.M., the project was sabotaged, transforming Sallis into the Man-Thing. The locals considered Calvin a "witch-woman" for creating monsters in her laboratory. Calvin thought it was obvious that Man-Thing was what remained of Ted Sallis, but a local shot her in the back.; Dr. Wendell cared for her until Dr. Allen killed him and kidnapped her because of her knowledge of the serum. Allen met his death at Man-Thing's hands. She was brought back to her home in New York City by Ka-Zar and Dr. Morse. However, she was left unguarded and taken away by her son "Vinnie" (Percy), who was forced to work for the Pusher. Eventually, Percy intervened and helped Ka-Zar defeat the Pusher, winding up in a full body cast. Although there was concern that Wilma would go into shock, she accepted things as they were and recovered.; At the behest of Nick Fury, she created a new batch of the Super Soldier Serum, but it was taken and used by Victorius. After this, she denied all of Nick Fury's further orders for more serum.; Wilma was ultimately killed by Percy, who used his mother's death in order to attract the attention of Bobbi Morse, who had recently been injected with a combination of the Super Soldier Serum and the Infinity Formula, in order to capture her and use her for his research.

+History:
+The Press Gang was formed from the X-Men that remained on the X-Topian island of Genosha to help set up a new government after its previous anti-mutant government was overthrown by mutant slaves. When a fatal disease called the Extinction Virus began to affect mutant on Genosha, the island was put under quarantine by X-Topia Province's Baron, Rachel Grey, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.; Desperate to find a cure, the Press Gang and its leader, Havok, decided to attack X-Topia's capital, X-City, and kidnap X-Man Triage and Rogue so they could use mutant healing power to cure the Extinction Virus's afflicted. The attack was successful in capturing Triage. Rogue was also captured by Press Gang member Karma whose power to absorb the powers of others could be used to help Triage heal the sick. The attack, however, cost the life of Press Gang member Chief Magistrate Anderson. Baron Summers, angry from the audacity of the Press Gang's attack and the damage done, ordered an attack on Genosha.; Soon after, Baron Grey and her X-Men attacked Hammer Bay which lead to an engagement against the Press Gang. During the fight, it was accidentally discovered that the Press Gang's supposed ally, Dr. Aldus Kluge the Genegineer, who was supposed to study Triage's healing power to create a cure for the Extinction Virus, had actually been using his research to resurrect Cameron Hodge, the leader of the former anti-mutant government of Genosha. Kluge admitted that he was the one that created the Extinction Virus and had planned to use the Transmode Virus and an Adamantium exoskeleton to turn Hodge into a fighting machine in order to purge mutants from Genosha. Press Gang member Bulletproof killed Kluge for his treachery.; Kluge's death didn't stop Hodge's resurrection, however. The X-Men and the Press Gang were forced to join forces to fight Hodge, but Hodge was too powerful for both groups to defeat. Press Gang member Wolfsbane then devised a plan to stop him. Using Press Gang member Mystique as a distraction to buy her enough time to get to their airplane along with Havok and X-Man Bombshell, Havok and Bombshell combined their powers to unleash a massive explosion while Wolfsbane crash-landed into Hodge, leaving no trace of them behind.

+The Praetorians were traditionally an honorable sub-cadre within the Imperial Guardsmen for worthy veterans and old guardsmen. Emperor Majestor Vulcan used the title to legitimize his personal hit squad made of the most dangerous creatures the Shi'ar Empire has ever encountered and kept alive to serve as a Black Ops team tasked with killing the Starjammers due to not being permissible to join the Imperial Guard due to their criminal histories.; Recruited from the Kr'kn prison, the Praetorians roster included Zzxz, God-killer, Pn'zo, The Hodinn, and the Strontian as the team's leader.The Praetorians first encountered the Starjammers on one of the Clench Worlds, where the teams fought before the Hodinn decided to burn the entire planet. Pn'zo managed to teleport the remaining team members off the planet to safety while their targets escaped.The team learned the Starjammers were headed to Kr'kn and followed suit after leaving Hodinn behind, deeming him too insane. However, Hodinn was picked up after destroying the rest of the Clench Worlds at Vulcan's order to help the Praetorians by combating Marvel Girl while the remaining team members teleported to the Kr'kn underwater prison to kill the remaining Starjammers. The Starjammers managed to escape before Lilandra cripple Deathbird. After this event, Vulcan replaced the Strontian with Gladiator to oversee the Shi'ar Empire's expansion.; After the war against the Kree Empire, Vulcan added new members to the team such as Warwear and the Pelagian and the new team was ordered to slaughter the Nova Corps after the Corps was defeated by Gladiator and the Imperial Guard. The Praetorians were next sent to Kree-Lar to support Blastaar's troops in their battle against Raveous and his army. The Strontian, Pn'zo, and God-Killer were later imprisoned by the Nova Corps in stasis tubes alongside Ravenous, while the remaining team members escaped.

Fortean promoted the initiative to federal officials as an alternative to independent superheroes and mutants.; The first successful operatives publicly demonstrated by the program were Echelon One, Echelon Two, and Echelon Three, also known respectively as Landi, Fraile, and Etherlink. During an official presentation, the trio displayed their abilities against remotely operated military hardware. Echelon One used his indestructible physiology to withstand artillery fire, Echelon Two manipulated magnetism to destroy attacking aircraft, and Echelon Three employed frequency-based powers to dismantle armored vehicles.; The demonstration was interrupted by the arrival of the Red She-Hulk, who attacked the operatives in an attempt to expose what she believed to be the dangers of the program. Although the Echelon operatives initially appeared to overpower her, she ultimately defeated them with ease and warned the observing government officials to terminate the initiative. Despite the destruction caused by the attack, government representatives approved additional funding for the project.; As Project Echelon expanded, new recruits and enhanced soldiers were stationed at facilities including a major base in Puerto Rico. The project became the target of a prolonged campaign conducted by Betty Ross as the Red She-Hulk, who had witnessed visions of a future in which Project Echelon exterminated superhumans before eventually turning against humanity itself. These visions were connected to the Terranometer and the Brotherhood of the Shield through encounters involving Eleanor Bennett and a manifestation of Nikola Tesla.; During subsequent assaults on Echelon facilities, the project’s operatives and soldiers repeatedly clashed with the Red She-Hulk and Machine Man. General Fortean also deployed advanced technology, including his Redeemer Armor, in efforts to contain the growing threat posed by Betty Ross. Project Echelon’s forces later expanded to include additional specialized operatives such as Devereaux and the telepath Martens.

+Species / origin: Life Model Decoys
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City
+Weapons: Various weapons, depending on the super being they looked like.
+Notes: The Project Doppelganger's LMDs had not only the aspect of famous super heroes and villains, but they got their powers and gadgets as well, making them the perfect replacement for the ones they looked like.
+Trivia: The LMDs seem to have a telepathic connection, how demonstrate the dialogue beetween Kraven's LMD and Captain America's LMD.
+History:
+Project Doppelganger was a secret project of the S.H.I.E.L.D. created to replace heroes with Life-Model Decoys if they died too early. The first LMD of the project Doppelganger was the Master Matrix, whose origins remained unknown, but Mary and Richard Parker treated him like a son; the Matrix was supposed to be the guide of the future Super-LMDs, but Mary created a better machine: a living machine. Fury disapproved of this and created the Galactus LMD to stop the Matrix in the worst case scenario, but Mary hid her work on Master Matrix. Years later the Chameleon discovered the Parkers' work, and decided to sell the LMDs on the black market. He freed the robots and reprogrammed them to do what he wanted them to, but Kreven's LMD and the others LMDs rebelled against Chameleon because they wanted to free Master Matrix. Spider-Man, Deadpool, and other heroes who was on the trail of Chameleon found the latter defeated and they were attacked by the robots; in the end the LMDs won and Spider-Man and his friends were captured. The LMDs freed the Master Matrix and he transformed the robots into Deadpool LMDs because a Deadpool LMD didn't exist, and the Matrix wanted to free humanity from death, transforming humans into Life-Model Decoys. Because of a malfunctioning Time Platform, Deadpool of Earth-616 and the old Deadpool of Earth-18236 swapped realities and the old version managed to tell the sharks Bruce and Deborah how to free the heroes and the battle began, but the LMDs defeated the heroes and escaped. Meanwhile, Deadpool of Earth-616 and the old Spider-Man of Earth-18236 arrived in Earth-616 and they paired up with their counterparts to search for the Matrix. When the two Spider-Men found Master Matrix, they explained that what he wanted to do was wrong, but Chameleon activated Galactus' LMD and shot the Matrix. While all the heroes attacked the giant, Kraven's LMD repaired Master Matrix and he used all the (Project Doppelganger LMD) (Earth-616)s to make a giant robot to fight Galactus, but the Chameleon's giant destroyed the other, so Deadpool crashed his S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier into Galactus and the battle was won. Both Deadpools renounced their mission to kill Master Matrix and the two old heroes disappeared as their future was erased.

+The Project Doppelganger of this reality presumably had a similar history of his Earth-616's counterpart, but a certain point Master Matrix was destroyed and consequently a Deadpool LMD activated to research the pieces. When Spider-Man and Deadpool tried to stop him the LMD killed Spider-Man, but Deadpool did a transfusion from him to Parker and Spidey revive. Years later the Deadpool's LMD was back to New York and the old Spider-Man and Deadpool decided to stop him. When the robot was distracted, Spidey used a device to destroy (apparently) the LMD, but the latter taken the device and used its to reactivated all the LMDs transformed into Deadpool's LMD. Wade and Peter escaped and with the help of the Fantastic Four, they fought the LMDs, but Deadpool's LMD hurted Spidey and the squad must escaped in the Baxter Building, so Deadpool tried to travel into time to kill the Deadpool's LMD and avoided his future, but a malfunctioning Doctor Doom's time platform swapped Deadpool of this reality and Deadpool of Earth-616. In Earth-18236, Deadpool and Spidey tried to stop the Deadpools, but they found the last piece of Master Matrix and he revived; the Matrix re-transformed the Deadpools into their real aspect and he unleashed them in the city, he also transformed Puck LMD, Feral LMD, Snowbird LMD, and Bishop LMD into Mary, Richard, May, and Ben Parker to confuse Spidey, but Deadpool destroyed them. Meanwhile Master Matrix transformed all LMDs into Thing's LMDs and he killed all Fantastic Four's members, but Doctor Doom travelled Deadpool and Spider-Man through time to meet their counterparts. The LMDs and all this reality were erased when the past was changed.

The group is quite diverse, having both male and female members from various nationalities , including a Scandinavian woman and a Japanese swordsman. This implies Nkati and his followers have been sailing all over the world since he left Wakanda. The Pride would gather new recruits by taking them captive during raids on port cities. These captives would be offered to join The Pride voluntarily, being offered food everyday and a new home. However, those that refused would be forced to become members through torture techniques such as receiving a burn mark. Members of the Pride all worshipped Nkati as a god and believed they were helping him build a better world.; In 1260 BC, the pride attacked Crete, but among the people they captured was the Wakandan agent Noni. She managed to infiltrate the Lion's Kingdom, taking out several members of the Pride in the process. She ultimately defeated Nkati, who committed suicide to prevent her from taking him back to Wakanda. It is unknown what became of the Pride after this.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Maryland; Formerly:; Genetech Laboratories
+History:
+===Formation===; Harmon Furmintz was a child prodigy, among the initial pool of men being considered for the Super-Serum project. When he was passed over for the project, and later saw the success of Captain America, he decided to devote his life to developing super-powered heroes of his own.; ===As "villains"===; Psionex played the part of super-powered bodyguards at Genetech. When the Warriors illegally trespassed on the Genetech grounds, Psionex was responsible for capturing them, and containing them for the authorities. They did NOT, as some might believe, act in any way at all illegally, and therefore the Warriors left them on uneasy terms, but not as sworn enemies.; In fact, Psionex never considered themselves to be villains, nor did they ever make any concerned effort to break the law or harm innocents. Rather, they were a team of very psychopathic powered individuals who broke free of their masters at Genetech, and fought the New Warriors, a team of teen heroes with close ties to the company. When Terrax took over the body of their old boss Furmintz, Mathemanic and Impulse actually stayed and helped the Warriors in their fight against the villain.; ===As "heroes"===; Later, the team broke free of Genetech's control, and while they did hold their former captors hostage, they released them when the Warriors came to their assistance, and went off to lead their civilian lives.; After the first Asylum's form was dissipated by Speedball, her name and mask were taken by Henrique Manuel Gallante, formerly known as Darkling, who had once fought the Warriors and was a drug addict who became mentally disturbed by his mutant ability to access the Darkforce Dimension, claiming that he heard a voice from within the Darkforce. However, upon his return, he brought together the first Asylum's old teammates as a "hero" team. They became media darlings, cleaning up the streets, fighting the Punisher-type battles which most superheroes are unwilling to be involved in. However, Asylum's plan backfired when he accidentally killed a child carrying a toy gun, which he believed to be real. He was brought in for trial by his teammates Coronary and Impulse, and the last he was seen, he was in jail.; Meanwhile, Night Thrasher and Rage had abandoned the New Warriors, and after being officially kicked off the team, they decided to put Psionex back into action. With both former New Warriors, Psionex finally resolved their differences with the Warriors when the two teams teamed up against Genecide and Eugenix. Rage and Thrash had somewhat of a brief success as a super-team which "crossed all lines" when fighting crime, but the two Warriors eventually went back to their own team. The last any member of the team was seen, Pretty Persuasions was performing at a strip club.; ===Dark Reign===; Psionex was later reassembled as part of the Initiative, showing great interest in enrolling, and were appointed as the Initiative team for Maryland, and participated to the H.A.M.M.E.R. assault on Asgard. At that time, the team was composed of Coronary, Pretty Persuasions, Mathemanic, Impulse and a new Asylum.; Their fate following the fall of the H.A.M.M.E.R. is unknown, but Steve Rogers thought they might perform as effective heroes, as long as they stayed out of Norman Osborn's influence.

However, his allies either died or moved on to other endeavors leaving Messenger alone again. At this point he decided to place himself in suspended animation, emerging once every ten years, he would seek out new mutants to join his cause.; Messenger formed the Promise during the 1930s to 40s in an attempt to protect mutants from prejudice. He believed that a war between mutants and baseline humans was inevitable, and although mutants were certain to emerge victorious in the conflict, the result would be chaos as various mutant factions would form and begin to fight with each other.; Messenger had hoped to take a leadership position in this post-war, mutant controlled world.

Proudhawk was compiling a list of young people who had been given mental powers by the White Event, and became convinced that these were the rabbits and he the hawk who must protect them. Of the eight names on his list, one-Edward Finelli-was untraceable, and two others-Joan Grant and Thomas Boyd were apparently dead (though unknown to Proudhawk, his duplicitous fellow agent Derek Shiningstar had faked Boyd's death for his own reasons) but he was able to gather the remaining five - Wayne Tucker, Tyrone Jessup, Kathy Ling, Mike Crawley, and Anastasia Inyushin - together for protection from the American and Russian Governments who wanted to capture them for their own reasons, only to be killed himself by a Russian agent named Mindwolf. The five kids-Proudhawk's 'Psi-Force'-seemed doomed until Wayne Tucker found himself compelled to take Proudhawk's medallion and have all five place their hands on it; immediately, a creature called the Psi-Hawk appeared and vanquished their pursuers. The five runaways found themselves compelled by the Psi-Hawk (which they believed to be a creation of their collective minds somehow linked to the dead Proudhawk) to stay together from then on, and found a literal sanctuary in Sanctuary house, a hostel run by a woman named Colby shaw who had been a friend of Proudhawk's.; Months later, Michael Crawley left the group when the supposedly dead Thomas Boyd (whom Shiningstar had used to try to hunt them down) came to them looking for sanctuary from Shiningstar, crawley having worked out that Boyd could also join the link to create Psi-Hawk, but that it was dangerous for more than five to do so, and considering himself the most expendable (Crawley would later end up associating with the D.P.7). Soon afterward, Sanctuary House was destroyed by the Russian paranormal named Rodstvow, and the Psi-Force found themselves separated (the compulsion that kept them together having faded after Boyd replaced Crawley) and being pursued by the mysterious group known as the Medusa Web, as well as by the CIA and the KGB (CIA agent Skipper blamed them for the death of Colby Shaw, his ex-wife). Eventually, Stasi Inyushin was killed but was replaced by Lindsey Falmon, a paranormal girl Tucker had found, and the group formed the Psi-Hawk one last time to battle Rodstvow over Washington, the battle resulting in the apparent destruction of Psi-Hawk and the kids being rendered comatose. Tyrone Jessup was acquired by the US Army and drafted once he woke up, while the other four ended up in the hands of the Russians at a top secret facility called the Siberian Project. After some weeks, Psi-Force (with a new recruit, an autistic child named Johnny Do) were able, with the aid of the Medusa Web and the paranormal named Justice, to destroy Rodstvow and leave the Project. The kids became freelance agents of the Medusa Web, and were later joined by an Afghan girl named Sedara Bakut.

+Full name: Purifiers
+First appearance: Marvel Graphic Novel Vol 1 5: X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills
+Created by: Chris Claremont; Brent Anderson
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The Purifiers are a group of mutant "hunters" formed by William Stryker bent on eradicating all mutants
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Washington, D.C. (main headquarters), numerous others scattered across the United States of America. Recently active in California (Los Angeles, San Francisco), Florida (Ocala, Miami)
+Equipment: Vibranium-based weapons, Legacy Virus
+Weapons: Heavily armored and armed exoskeletons, Artillery, Vibranium based arms and ammunition, energy weapons
+Transportation: Gunship, Tanks
+History:
+===Stryker's gathering===; After William Stryker killed his family, he started a mission to rid the world of all mutants. Stryker knew he could not do this task on his own, so he traveled around and recruited many mutant hating people to join his mission. Stryker was later stopped and sent to prison, but his followers, now called the Purifiers, kept on going.; ===Decimation===; William Stryker later returned as a major player right at the start of M-Day. Deeming the sudden massive reduction in number of the mutant population a sign of God, he went on TV and declared "He made the first step and now we have to take the next".; With the help of Icarus, one of the Xavier Institute's students, he caused a bus to explode, killing about 1/4th of the de-powered students from the academy. Then he planned the assassination of Wallflower, ordering one of his Purifier snipers to shoot her in the head. Next he tried to kill Dust. X-23 became suspicious and went under cover as Dust, getting shot herself. The deaths of Wallflower and Dust were Stryker's prime objectives, as he had been informed by Nimrod that both girls would be fundamental in the destruction of the Purifiers. Finally he attacked the institute with his Purifiers, killing Quill, leaving Onyxx and Cannonball critically wounded, and hurting Bishop, Emma Frost and other students. After Stryker's Purifiers were defeated, he was killed by the enraged boyfriend of Wallflower, Elixir.; The Purifiers would later manage to acquire Stryker's remains from the authorities.; ===Messiah Complex===; The Purifiers attempted the kill the first mutant baby born after M-Day. They attacked the Marauders in Cooperstown, Alaska, killing Blockbuster and Prism, but failed to kill the baby. After being infiltrated by Rictor, the group was attacked by the New X-Men, who were seeking to prove their worth to the X-Men. With the assistance of the Reavers, the New X-Men were nearly massacred, barely escaping.; ===Bastion and the Human Council===; Following those events, they managed to find and resurrect Bastion, who then harvested the remains of Magus and injected them into several living and dead known mutant killers (Donald Pierce, Leper Queen, William Stryker, Stephen Lang, Cameron Hodge, Graydon Creed, and Bolivar Trask), turning them all into Technarch/human hybrids and "resurrecting" the dead members, much to Matthew Risman's objections. These people were then made into an inner circle of leadership for the Purifiers.; ===Internal conflict===; Meanwhile, the Purifiers used a brainwashed Wolfsbane to attack Archangel and obtain his wings, which, even though they appeared to be fully organic, were still composed of Apocalypse's techno-organic strain. Using the sample, the Purifiers employed a scientist named Adam Harkins to duplicate the strain and use it to create an elite team of Purifiers called "the Choir". After learning that Bastion was planning to remove Risman from the group's leadership, Risman led the Choir against Bastion's Purifiers in an attempt to destroy Bastion and the reanimated remains of Stryker, considering them unholy. Archangel later attacked the Purifiers in an attempt to reclaim the wings that were stolen from him, killing every member of the Choir. During that point, Matthew Risman was shot in the head by X-23 around the point where Matthew tried to kill Bastion.; <!--; ===Second Coming===; ...; ===Fear Itself===; ...-->; Following the Serpent's War, Purifiers were seen tracking Hybrid in Los Angeles. When the Avengers Academy came, they tried to explain the threat of their target, but were all killed by the Dire Wraith/mutant hybrid before making the Avengers believe they committed suicide to avoid capture.; ===Avengers vs. X-Men===; After the conflict pitting the X-Men against the Avengers, the Purifiers, now equipped with heavily armored and armed exoskeletons, attacked the transport truck carrying Emma Frost, but they were defeated by the New Avengers members (Luke Cage, Mockingbird, Daredevil, and The Thing) escorting it. They were then arrested by the San Francisco Police Department. Though unsuccessful, their attack managed to make Luke Cage quit the Avengers and focus on his family.; Later, the same heavily equipped Purifiers targeted X-23 in Miami, only to be defeated by Cyclops' X-Men and the time-displaced X-Men.; The X-Men then tracked those Purifiers, locating them in Ocala, Florida. Attacking them, they were all taken down by the Purifiers' leader Jason Stryker.

+Following the apparent deaths of the Avengers while battling Onslaught, their former technician Fabian Stankowicz became obsessed with protecting others and seeking a way to fill the void created by the Avengers' disappearance. After learning that S.H.I.E.L.D. had buried the remains of Onslaught's Sentinels in a New Jersey landfill, Fabian dug them up and began to rebuild them in a warehouse, redesigning them to look like Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and Ant-Man of the Avengers. As Fabian had only working CPU unit, he created an interface between himself and the CPU so that he could control the machines. However, the machines ate away at Fabian's already fragile mind, enslaving him to their will. The four robots, terming themselves the Protectorate, set out to "protect" New York. Their appearance drew the attention of the remaining Avengers, among whom were the Scarlet Witch, Firestar, and Justice, all mutants. Recognizing them as mutants with their Sentinel technology, the Protectorate deemed all of the Avengers mutants and refused to acknowledge them as the true Avengers, as Fabian had programmed them to believe the Avengers dead. The Protectorate assaulted the Avengers and managed to hold their own, briefly containing them in the Ant-Man unit's cocoon. In the meantime, though, Edwin Jarvis had sought out Stankowitz at his warehouse and learned what had happened. When Fabian realized that the Avengers were alive and that he was "the bad guy", he asked Jarvis to free him from the CPU and destroy the Protectorate's motherboard. Jarvis did so, and the Protectorate were immediately rendered immobile. Fabian was subsequently sent to a hospital for extensive treatment.

+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The group of heroes that would become known as Protectors first met during a charity event to raise awareness for Asian-American bone marrow donation held in Manhattan. The group became fast friends and decided to hang out in Koreatown for the night. Their evening was interrupted by the arrival of the Imperial Guard of Seknarf Seven.; Even though the invaders were easily dealt with, the fight turned out to be a distraction which allowed the aliens to plant in the scene several spears that teleported the portion of ground the heroes and numerous bystanders were standing on, namely Herald Square, light-years away from Earth and close to Seknarf Seven. When the prince regent of Seknarf Seven Phalkan revealed his intention to use the individuals abducted as a food colony, the heroes decided to officially band together as a team to defend the innocent people trapped with them, becoming their Protectors.; After Phalkan gave the humans six hours before he returned to take three of their numbers, they started to device a plan to fight back. While Arnie Kovac, Zee Zee Ahmed, Jake Oh and Amadeus Cho tinkered with the devices that provided atmosphere and gravity to the piece of floating land, the rest worked on retrofitting a van into a bunker for the children and creating Molotov cocktails.; The aliens returned early, having figured out that the humans were up to something. The Protectors fought back, damaging Phalkan's ship with the Molotov's and striking at his Imperial Guard, which prompted Phalkan to disable the gravity generator. Phalkan then gave the humans five minutes to present the offering or he would shut down the atmosphere generator. Amadeus, Jake and Jimmy Woo offered themselves. However, their offering turned out to be a ruse to catch the aliens off-guard. The humans had managed to repurpose energy from one of Phalkan's blasts to disrupt the shielding that kept Cho from Hulking-out, and had also gained control of the life support devices. After turning back on life support, they confronted the Imperial Guard.; The Imperial Guard focused their efforts on taking down the Hulk, but their armors were fried when he unleashed a blast of gamma radiation after reaching the necessary level of anger. With the villains hindered, the rest of the humans started to fight back. Jimmy Woo even got close to killing Phalkan. Hulk stopped the fight, arguing they shouldn't stoop to their level. Alpha Flight forces subsequently arrived, after having received an S.O.S. from Woo earlier, and arrested Phalkan and the Imperial Guard.; The civilians were returned to Earth in Alpha Flight's ships, and Amadeus continued working on the teleported spears until he managed to teleport Herald Square back to Manhattan. During the subsequent War of the Realms, Jimmy Woo would enlist the former members of the Protectors to join his team, the Agents of Atlas.

But they sometimes traveled to outer parts if someone was in need of transportation as one Rider took the Last Inhuman Maximus to the Obsidian Cliffs so Maximus could translate a story by etching into the stone wall for others to see.; The same Rider later took Maximus to a far out place where they came upon a destroyed space craft which served as a secluded exile for Noh-Varr, the last of the Accusers.; Once Maximus convinced Noh-Varr to travel with them, the Rider took them on their journey until his Pterolyth died from heat exhaustion after they reached the coast. The Rider carried on with them until he to succumbed to the harsh environment of the Stone Forest.

+History:
+Project Sentry was a top-secret project conducted by Valentina Allegra de Fontaine's company O.X.E. to create a new powerful superhero by the name of Sentry who could replace the Avengers. It operated in Malaysia where it was disguised as a clinical trial which purpose was to improve their capabilities, and took in various volunteers to test on. The project developed an improved variant of Captain America's Super-Soldier Serum, and exposed it to the subjects through a series of horrific experiments. It went especially bad with a particular subject by the name of Bob Reynolds, as his dark thoughts manifested in the form of the Void which lashed out at staff, turning some scientists into shadows.; The drug's effects proved to be too much for all of the subjects, and their bodies were unable to sustain the torture anymore, leading to their deaths. Bob was also thought deceased as his body didn't give signs of life, but unbeknownst to staff he was revived while encased in a stasis capsule. During de Fontaine's impeachment trial due to her questionable actions to supposedly aid the government, she had all incriminating evidence relating to Project Sentry, including the capsule containing Bob's body, sent to the O.X.E. Vault in Utah to be incinerated. Meanwhile, she sent her hired agents U.S. Agent and Yelena Belova to clean up everything that was left. Yelena infiltrated the Malaysian base where she was to obtain useful information and destroy the building. Belova failed in accessing the information, but was successful in destroying the base.

+First appearance: Sentry Vol 2 8
+Created by: Paul Jenkins
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: A super-human project to create the most powerful hero known as the "Sentry"
+Reality: Earth-616
+Affiliation: Weapon X; Project Rebirth
+History:
+===Origin===; The project was a top-secret joint initiative launched by the American and Canadian governments in March 1947, shortly after the end of World War II. Its primary objective was to replicate and vastly enhance the effects of the original Super-Soldier Serum that had transformed Captain America into a Super-Soldier. To this end, the operation drew upon both captured Nazi research and the existing Canadian bio-enhancement program, Weapon X.; Driven by early Cold War anxieties, the project aimed to create a superhuman operative whose power would far surpass that of Captain America—an ultimate deterrent against emerging global threats. However, international politics, inter-agency rivalry, and a lack of central oversight caused the project to fragment over the next three decades. By the late 1970s, Project Sentry had devolved into a loosely connected network of subcontracted laboratories and independent researchers, operating without clear direction or accountability.; One of the researchers involved in the later stages of the program was The Professor, a recipient of outsourced development work. He succeeded in synthesizing the Golden Sentry Serum, a new and exponentially more potent variant of the original Super-Soldier formula. Unlike its predecessor, the Golden Sentry Serum was capable of unlocking nearly limitless physical and mental potential in its subject potentially rendering them one of the most powerful beings on Earth. The project culminated in a series of ethically dubious and psychologically invasive human trials, conducted in secrecy.; ===Sentry===; Over a decade later, Robert "Bob" Reynolds, a meth addict, broke into the Professor’s laboratory and discovered the serum. Upon ingesting it, Reynolds gained the power of a million exploding suns, an act that resulted in the deaths of his partner and the lab's security personnel. He later returned to the Professor and demanded more of the compound. Horrified by what their fragmented efforts had enabled, Project Sentry attempted to bring Reynolds into their facility to test and monitor his abilities. However, they were unable to contain him or restrain his growing urge to use his powers for the greater good. The Sentry soon emerged before a world that had nearly forgotten superhuman heroes. After confronting the childhood bully who had once tormented him, Reynolds fashioned a costume and publicly debuted as the heroic Sentry.; However, the serum's effects on Reynolds were not wholly positive. His inner fears, doubts, and repressed darkness were given form by the serum, manifesting as the malevolent entity known as the Void. The Void acted as a psychic counterweight to the Sentry's power, wreaking havoc on the project and its personnel. In one of its earliest manifestations, the Void attacked the facility, killing staff and leaving survivors traumatized some even transformed into literal shadows. The devastating consequences of Reynolds’ transformation ultimately led to the erasure of public and institutional memory of the project through advanced mental suppression protocols, rendering Project Sentry a classified and largely forgotten chapter in the history of super-soldier experimentation.; }

+Project: Wideawake was a covert task force of the CIA. Authorized by President John F.

The task force has maintained a shroud of anonymity about their membership and operations since their inception, with the only known information of their activities coming from documents declassified after decades of secrecy.; In July 1963, Project: Wideawake operatives were ambushed by Brotherhood of Mutants members Azazel and Tempest; in the ensuing shoot-out, the operatives killed both mutants.; After the assassination of President Kennedy in November 1963, Project: Wideawake participated in the Warren Commission's investigation into the murder, and helped track down leads suggesting Mutant elements had been involved in the plot. Two weeks before the Warren Commission had even finished their report on Kennedy's assassination, the CIA dispatched Project: Wideawake operatives to find and capture Mutant Erik Lehnsherr, who had been implicated in the assassination conspiracy. While Project: Wideawake searched for Lehnsherr in a rural area of New York, Lehnsherr instead found them, and turned himself over to the task force without incident on February 4, 1964.

+History:
+Project Worldcore was a planetary survival program devised by the Egosians after they determined their sun was nearing a nova event. With no means of space travel, they focused on protecting their entire population from the coming radiation rather than escaping it.; The solution was to excavate a passage to the planet’s core and construct a massive underground refuge. This structure consisted of multiple sealed chambers containing suspension units, each designed to keep individuals in a dormant state for an extended period. The intention was for the population to remain in stasis until the stellar aftermath subsided and the surface became livable again.; The project was driven by the scientist Egros, whose direction helped coordinate the effort and maintain progress under extreme time constraints. Within a relatively short span, the core shaft was completed and the vault constructed to house billions of individuals. Every phase of the operation was carefully timed, including the controlled descent of the population into the facility and their placement into suspension.; As the deadline approached, most of the population had already entered stasis, while a small number remained above to finalize procedures and seal the installation. However, the stellar reaction began earlier than anticipated, leaving insufficient time to complete the sealing process. Attempts to finish the operation failed as the star went nova before the vault could be secured.; Because the chambers were not sealed, the radiation reached the interior of the structure. The resulting exposure caused an unexpected transformation: the consciousness of Egros fused with the planetary mass, while the suspended population was consumed. This event ultimately led to the creation of Ego the Living Planet.

+Notes: The Rangers' origin closely mirrors that of the Avengers. Both teams responded to a call for help from Rick Jones.; Armadillo was fired from the team shortly after joining for drunkenly touching Shooting Star inappropriately.; Scarlet Spider was asked to join, but immediately rejected the offer.
+History:
+===Origin===; The Rangers began basically by accident. Rick Jones was being held captive by the villainous Corruptor, who had the Hulk under his influence. Rick managed to sent a shortwave radio message to attempt to contact the Avengers. The message never reached the Avengers but instead five individuals intercepted the message and responded: Firebird, Phantom Rider, Red Wolf, Shooting Star, and Texas Twister. Although the five Southwestern adventurers were unable to stop the Hulk's rampage, they did enable him to defeat the Corruptor. At the battle's end, Texas Twister suggested that the five of them get together whenever a threat to the Southwest crops up. They agreed and took the collective name of the Rangers. However, because of the geographical separation among the members, the first incarnation of the Rangers didn't last long.; They was one of the many heroes group recruited to join the Contest of Champions. When the Hulk was cleared of all charges he was honored by a parade which featured heroes from around the globe. The Rangers joined the group.; ===Master Pandemonium===; Shooting Star's identity was at some point taken over by an unnamed Demon in the employ of Master Pandemonium, who believed Firebird to be one of the possessors of his fragmented soul. To keep the Rangers from meeting regularly and perhaps posing a threat to him before he had completed his study of Firebird, Pandemonium dispatched the demon to take Shooting Star's place. Firebird nevertheless believed the demon to be hiding among the Avengers West Coast branch and with her guidance the Rangers confronted the heroes, only to flush the demon in Shooting Star out of hiding. The demon claimed that Shooting Star was a human guise it had taken long before, that there never was a Victoria Star. The Avengers imprisoned the demon at their Compound and began an investigation of Master Pandemonium, but the Texas Twister, demonstrating a curious lack of concern, did not accompany them.; Soon, however, Texas Twister returned to the Avengers Compound at a time when Hawkeye was alone, demanding to see the captive demon. Twister declared his love for the demon, which turned back into Shooting Star. Texas Twister went on to explain that the demon had come to him months ago when Twister's powers seemed to be fading, making him afraid that he'd lose Shooting Star if their rodeo act broke up on account of his lost powers. The demon offered to augment the Twister's powers in exchange for his soul, and the Twister agreed, but after his powers were restored he begged to be spared, so the demon possessed Shooting Star instead, casting a spell that prevented Twister from telling anyone about this. Twister studied the occult until he found a means to expel the demon from Star. The demon then possessed Twister himself and battled Hawkeye and Shooting Star. Ultimately, Star threatened to kill the demon rather than allow the possession to continue, and the demon reluctantly imprisoned itself in a statue. Texas Twister and Shooting Star were reunited.; They later teamed up with Spider-Man to battle the Frightful Four in Calgary. The team joined all the other heroes in a battle against Graviton.; ===50-State Initiative===; The Rangers later registered as part of the 50-State Initiative and became the official state super-team for Texas. Living Lightning and Armadillo joined the original five, and they helped protect the President of the USA from a Hydra attack.; During the Secret Invasion, Red Wolf's pet wolf Lobo was revealed to have been replaced by a Skrull. The Skrull was killed by the team after being revealed.; ===Scarlet Spider===; The recruited a new member Fifty One. The team later clashed with Scarlet Spider in Houston, Texas but they joined forces with him to battle Mammon.; The team later joined the other heroes at the Avengers Mansion to honor Sam Wilson who had been selected as the new Captain America.

+Shortly after the Avengers returned from Counter-Earth, the Avengers past and present were attacked by minions in the service of Morgan Le Fay. The Avengers pooled all their resources together and set out to attack Morgan, but they were ambushed and hit by a reality distortion wave. The wave caused the time period to be altered to a medieval setting altering the Avengers' clothing, speech patterns and thought processes. All of the Avengers involved in the attacks on Morgan's troops believed themselves to be a part of the Queen's (Morgan le Fay) elite guard known as the Queen's Vengeance.; The Scarlet Witch was the only Avenger not allowed to roam free, because her powers canceled out Morgan's and she couldn't be brainwashed. The Scarlet Witch was kept in the dungeon, and while held captive reached out with her powers trying to contact any Avenger to come and help her. This nudged Captain America out of his trance. Realizing who he really was Cap set out to recruit other Avengers, and wake them up as well.; He began with Hawkeye and Hawkeye gathered the Wasp and Photon. Captain America tried to recruit Iron Man but he was too engrossed within the illusion. Confronted by the entire Queen's Vengeance, Cap and Hawkeye urged the others to resist and Quasar and Justice actually broke free of the spell. Morgan interrupted before any others could join them, and Thor (who had broken free on his own) joined the rebels. Together Captain America, Hawkeye, Thor, Wasp, Photon, Quasar, and Justice stood up to the rest of the Queen's Vengeance. Scarlet Witch managed to reincarnate Wonder Man who managed to turn the tide, and the Vision's body was destroyed in the process (the Vision managed to survive this attack though). Scarlet Witch with the combined willpower of all the awakened Avengers, pumped power into Wonder Man, shifting reality back to normal and defeating Morgan in the process.

Eventually, they departed from Mys-Tech and began working as mercenaries. Their services were sought by Takashei Otomo, the CEO of Otomocorp.; Mys-Tech dispatched Q7 Strike Force to locate Union Jack. However, during their mission, they crossed paths with Iron Man, who was collaborating with the Knights of Pendragon at the time. Iron Man proved too formidable, overpowering the trio and causing Mys-Tech to teleport them away.; Otomo discovered information about a potent weapon called the Gene Match Device, deliberately leaked by Mys-Tech. Acting on this intelligence, Otomo sent the Q7 Strike Force to the Nakasoni Corporation, a Mys-Tech subsidiary, with the intention of acquiring the Scanner. Their efforts were met with opposition from the Gene Dogs, dispatched by S.T.O.R.M. to prevent Otomo from obtaining the device. Although the Gene Dogs secured the Scanner, one of their members, Panther, fell victim to Banzai's attack.; In response to the Gene Dogs' acquisition of the device, Mys-Tech dispatched Hurricane to retrieve it from S.T.O.R.M. However, Otomo had a spy named Suyin within Mys-Tech who leaked this information to him with the approval of Algernon Crowe, a Mys-Tech Techno-Wizard. With this knowledge, Otomo deployed the Q7 Strike Force to ambush Hurricane and reclaim the Scanner, transporting both Hurricane and the Scanner back to Otomocorp's headquarters in Siberia.; Amidst their encounter, Hurricane found himself at the mercy of Sternwood's sadistic torments. Yet, Hurricane absorbed the energy, broke free, and seized mental control over Q7. The Gene Dogs arrived on the scene in an attempt to retrieve the Scanner. They managed to defeat Q7 by establishing a psychic link through Cat. However, Hurricane overwhelmed the Gene Dogs and imprisoned them alongside Q7.; Q7 joined forces with the Gene Dogs after their imprisonment, and Otomo freed them to confront Hurricane, who had gained control of the Gene Scanner. Together, they journeyed to the Otomocorp Space Station, where Hurricane planned to utilize the Scanner to mutate a substantial portion of the Earth's population. The group, mentally linked by Cat, defeated Hurricane. Subsequently, Otomo tried to activate the Scanner for his own purposes against Mys-Tech. Unfortunately for Otomo, he discovered too late that the Scanner was, in reality, a bomb engineered to eliminate its user—a scheme devised by Mys-Tech, specifically Crowe, to eliminate Otomo as a competitor. Tanuta employed her teleportation abilities to ensure the safety of the Gene Dogs, Hurricane, and herself outside Otomocorp HQ. It is presumed that Tanuta teleported her allies to an alternate location.

+Full name: Raiders
+First appearance: Iron Man Vol 1 145
+Created by: David Michelinie; Bob Layton; John Romita Jr.
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Mercenary team outfitted by Edwin Cord's company Cordco
+Reality: Earth-616
+Equipment: Raider Armor: Each of the Raider suits provide the wearer with greater durability and flight, and offer varying weapons systems:; Raider 1: is equipped with wristbands that can generate bullets; Raider 2: is equipped with a net capable of siphoning energy and a protective shield that absorbs energy attacks.; Raider 3: has two wrist weapons that project and amplify sonic waves in concentrated form.; }
+History:
+The Raiders were a group of three mercenaries employed by Edwin Cord, head of Cordco and a corporate rival of Stark Industries. Each was given a battle armor with which Cord intended to recover from the disaster of his previous Mauler Armor. They were first seen during the 24th annual Conclave of Electronics Engineers and Innovators in Dallas, Texas. At the event organizations such as Cordco, S.H.I.E.L.D, C.T.E., and Roxxon Oil Corporation showed the latest development in technology.; Cord knew that Iron Man, as Stark's bodyguard, would follow him to the trade show, and used this opportunity to demonstrate the capabilities of the Raider suits to S.H.I.E.L.D.. Under orders of Edwin Cord, the Raiders attacked the technology trade show and cause property damage until the arrival of Iron Man and Scott Lang. The Raiders skirmished with Iron Man for a moment, with one of the Raiders using acid to damage the hero's armor. During a second battle at a live boxing match, Iron Man defeated all three Raiders. The Raiders were tricked when Iron Man used his image inducer to create holograms of himself to distract all three of them. Iron Man sucker punched the group and took the fight outside where there would be a less chance of harming innocent people. After an intense battle, Iron Man prevailed and all three Raiders were apprehended. Cord later showed a film of the Raiders' exploits to S.H.I.E.L.D Agent Burke to try and get a weapons contract they formerly offered to Stark, but they were aghast at Cord's illegal means and arrested him.; The Raiders reappeared with upgraded suits during the Armor Wars. Tony discovers his armor designs had been stolen and decided to retrieve or neutralize the technology, leading to a brief confrontation with the Raiders, in which their suits are rendered defunct.; When the Avengers West Coast battled Kearson DeWitt, members Hawkeye, Wonder Man, and Living Lightning defended Stark Enterprises against the invading Raiders, Seekers, and Hunters. The Raiders were later part of an army of armor-wearing mercenaries hired to attack Stark Enterprises.; The Raiders resurfaced years later during the worldwide release of Tony Stark's latest invention, the eScape. The Raiders intercepted a truck transporting eScape merchandise, but they were stopped by the combined effort of Iron Man, Wasp and Jim Rhodes.

+History:
+The Purple Terror was not one man, but many Nazi spies who were active in the Midwestern United States in 1943. Appearing in the homes of average Americans as purple ghosts, they would demand for the peoples' departure from town and use an acidic gas to ruin their furniture and other possessions. The leader of this crew was also doubling as the police chief and recommended that people leave town after the attacks until things settled down.; Their plot was to drive Americans out of small towns away from farming work and into major cities where they hoped would cause overpopulation, gross unemployment, and more panic during attacks on major cities.; When the story hit the national newspapers, the Human Torch and Toro decided to investigate the Purple Terror.; When the heroes arrived, the spies sent one of their agents to appear before them as the Purple Terror. His orders were to allow himself to get captured and lead the two heroes to their secret base where they were led into a room lined with asbestos on a granite floor. The two heroes broke free from their trapping and rounded up the spies and turned them over to the authorities.; To date, nobody has assumed the guise of the Purple Terror since.

+History:
+The Quintronic Man was a project in which Professor Burke was working under the command of A.I.M. based from Iron Man. It's an exoskeleton which needed 5 men to operate, including himself. But Burke, the key agent on the project, left A.I.M. before it was finished.; Colin Thirty-Three sent two agents to kidnap Professor Burke. In a apparently failed attempt to prevent A.I.M.'s mission from success, S.H.I.E.L.D. managed to change a face-covered Professor Burke with Bruce Banner, who as soon as he entered A.I.M.'s facility, started causing havoc.; Colin decided that the project could've been finished without Burke, and used another A.I.M. agent to cover Burke's place. Other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who supported Hulk were defenseless until the hero crashed on the scene. The Quintronic Man tried to kill Hulk using the lava of the volcano the A.I.M. base was in, but he survived, and crashed the suit's protection, allowing the lava to reach Thirty-Three and the other four agents, killing them and destroying the suit.; Years later, five criminal scientists built a Quintronic Man in Long Island City. However, due to a malfunction in the power core, it was going to overheat and explode, taking a whole city block with it. Fortunately, the Inhuman precog Ulysses Cain saw the Quintronic Man explode in a vision and alerted Spider-Man. Going through the details of the vision with Ulysses, he was able to determine the cause and location of the explosion and went to stop it. After a brief fight with the Quintronic Man, Spider-Man was able to bring the core malfunction to the pilots' attention and had them drive the Quintronic Man into the river, where its core cooled down. The pilots were subsequently arrested.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City, San Francisco
+Notes: Joe is the biggest of the Purple Children and appears to be of African descent. Connor is the smallest. Jamie is the middle son. Shallah is the blonde. The name of the brunette Asian girl is unknown.; It's possible for the Purple Children to be mutant. Their older half-sibling, Kara Killgrave, is classified as such.; A few statements could imply that they are indeed mutants, but nothing definitive has been clearly stated. Matt Murdock stated in Daredevil Vol 4 9 that they are the "next evolutionary step," a term often used for mutants. In Daredevil Vol 4 10, he expresses that he made calls to a school that specializes in "gifted youngsters," a reference to the Jean Grey School For Higher Learning, formerly the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.
+History:
+The Purple Children were the offspring of the villain known as the Purple Man with different women over the years. He would get those women pregnant, after making them fall in love with him using his powers, and would later abandon them and make them tell no one.; Over the years, Purple Man (Zebediah Killgrave) kept track of them, and finally decided to gather them one by one. Zebediah hoped he could rule countries with his children and finally know unconditional love. After recovering the fifth son, Jamie, the Purple Children were powerful enough to unite their wills and stand up against their father. Using their mind-control powers inherited from their father, they forced Purple Man to walk in front of a train and kill himself. With no one to control them, the Purple Children set out to do whatever they wanted.; They wreaked havoc in San Francisco, and caught Daredevil's attention after stealing a police car. He managed to stop them, but they soon used the crowd nearby to oppose the vigilante. When the SFPD arrived at the scene, they controlled the officers into shooting Daredevil, and used the confusion to escape. They were soon afterwards pinned down by him, but they used their powers to emotionally assault Daredevil, subduing him and causing the hero fall in a gutter.; The Purple Children targeted an arcade next, where they used their powers to take absolute control of the place. Their father, who had survived the train-hit thanks to his healing factor, followed them, and stealthily started taking them down, one by one. Daredevil managed to save the children, and help the police officers surrounding the arcade enter by turning up the volume of the music, so Purple Man's commands wouldn't be heard. The children were separated and taken to different locations; some had families where to go, and others didn't. Due to being separated and out of each other's "sphere of influence", they started reverting to normal.; Having escaped custody, Killgrave started kidnapping the Purple Children in order to serve as batteries for a machine capable of extending his reach to a global level. The last two children managed to reach Daredevil and ask him for help. When they tracked down Killgrave, the children rushed into action, unwittingly giving away their presence, which allowed him to take control of Daredevil. By facing his inner demons, Daredevil broke free of the Purple Man's control and beat him up. In a misguided attempt to reward Daredevil, the Purple Children used their father's machine to make the entire world forget his secret identity. They escaped, and left the Purple Man tied up.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; The powers of the Purple Children are activated once they are touched by somebody with their abilities. Once touched, they change their skin color and hair to a purple tone.; Mind Control via Pheromones: Similarly to their father, each Purple Child can control other individuals by releasing pheromones in the vicinity. Then, they can control the individual's actions either with words or telepathically.; Empathy: Unlike their father, the Purple Children can blast their primal kid emotions and make people feel whatever they want. When confronting Daredevil, the use of this ability caused him to relive the tragedies of his life.; ===Weaknesses===; If they're kept separated from each other, the Purple Children lose their powers. Additionally, they leave a "spoor of emotion" which can be tracked by somebody with their abilities, like their father.

+History:
+The Raksha were a team of ruthless mutant vigilantes operating in Madripoor. They were inspired by Wolverine, whom they knew as Patch from his time in their country.; While brutally taking down a MGH dealer, the Raksha were interrupted by Jimmy Hudson, who disapproved the lethality of their methods. Norio attacked Jimmy, but was soon subdued by his teammate from the X-Men, Marvel Girl, who arrived to assist Jimmy together with Beast. The X-Men and the Raksha engaged in a fight which was abruptly stopped by Norio himself once Jimmy popped his claws and Norio recognized their similarity to Wolverine's. After clearing up their intentions, both teams agreed to work together.; During the beginning of the Mothervine crisis, the Raksha encountered a group of Hellfire Club henchmen. They infiltrated the X-Mansion to inform Magneto about their presence in Madripoor, as well as to check up on the X-Men, since they were concerned they had been compromised after hearing nothing from them for weeks. At the time, the time-displaced members of the young X-Men were off-world due to an emergency mission in space. The Raksha remained at the X-Mansion under Polaris' observation, but she fell under the control of the psychic entity Malice and attacked them. Polaris managed to fight off Malice's possession, but not before having brutalized all of the Raksha except Gazing Nightshade. Her teammates were hospitalized at the X-Man's infirmary afterwards, and Nightshade herself temporarily joined Polaris' makeshift roster of X-Men to help stop the spread of the Mothervine.; Having recovered, the Raksha teamed up with the X-Men to take down a group of ninja MGH dealers. Since Magneto had returned to his mutant-supremacist roots and the time-displaced X-Men were preparing to return to their era, the young mutants arranged with Polaris and Danger to offer the Raksha the opportunity to become their students at the X-Mansion. The Raksha were initially reluctant, but seemed to take up the offer.

The Ravagers fought back and restrained the intruders, after which Lord Starkill thought of selling his nemesis and her crew to Thanos in order to clear his own name. However the rest of the Ravagers found his plan extremely dangerous and foolhardy. The Zetas, having grown tired of their leader acting weirdly as well, sided with the Ravagers in a joint mutiny against their captains, deciding to deliver both of them to Titan.; Upon landing on Titan, they were taken by Thanos to the Court of Galactic Justice. Thanos found the lives of two criminals incapable of redemption worth nothing to hand over in exchange until Rockette revealed the Reality Stone taken from Lord Starkill. Thanos then ordered every pirate seized and announced his intention to use the Stone to rid of the galaxy of all who pirate and pillage like they do. Upon hearing that, the pirates attacked Thanos' forces, helping their captains escape and also robbing the treasury on their way back to the ship. As they loaded the loot onto the Milano, Rockette wondered whether the two groups had formally merged into one super villain group.

+History:
+The Qilin Riders are one of the few communities of mortals to inhabit Ta-Lo, the extradimensional realm of the immortal Xian. Long ago, the Xian appointed the Qilin Riders to serve as the guardians of an ancient stone gateway (paifang) which connected Ta-Lo to the Earth realm on a hidden island in the East China Sea. The Qilin Riders have been sworn to safeguard the "Heavenly Weapons" of the Xian, treasures hidden away within Ta-Lo, from any would-be thieves.; To aid in their defense of the gateway to Ta-Lo, the Xian gifted the Qilin Riders with an aptitude for archery as well as the ability to psionically link with the four-legged qilin creatures which inhabit Ta-Lo.; During his quest to destroy Zheng Zu's bloodline, Chieftain Xin mobilized the Qilin Riders against the Five Weapons Society. After kidnapping Jiang Li, the former commander of the Qilin Riders, and taking her back to Ta-Lo, Xin and the Qilin Riders attempted to kill Shang-Chi and his half-sisters but were defeated and forced to retreat. Instead, the Qilin Riders ambushed Deadly Hammer; while they failed to kill her, Qin was able to sever her right hand, which he took back with him to Ta-Lo for his ritual to destroy Zu's lineage. With Hammer's hand, Qin was able to create Taotie Masks for himself and the Riders. When the Jade Emperor demanded Xin's presence in his throne room, Xin ordered the Riders to carry out their mission to destroy the Society. The Qilin Riders arrived at the House of the Deadly Hand to destroy it, but were unexpectedly confronted by Warriors of the Deadly Hand, Master Ling and Jiang Li, who was able to escape Ta Lo and warn the Society of the Riders' invasion. The Riders then donned their Taotie Masks, greatly enhancing their strength. Although the Riders were joined by Xin, who now possessed six of the Ten Rings. Shang-Chi attempted to fight Xin with the remaining four Rings, but lost them to Xin, who ordered the Riders to destroy New York City. Shang-Chi was able to reclaim the Ten Rings and unlock their full potential giving him enough power to easily defeat Xin and the Qilin Riders, destroying their masks in the process. After Xin was taken back to Ta Lo to face justice for his crimes, the Jade Emperor appointed Jiang Li as the new Chieftain of the Qilin Riders.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; As the guardians of the interdimensional gateway which links Ta-Lo with the Earth realm on Qilin Island, the Qilin Riders were gifted innate archery abilities by the Xian.; The Xian also gave the Qilin Riders the ability to psionically link with the four-legged qilin creatures which are native to Ta-Lo. The Qilin Riders use this ability to use the qilin as their steeds.

+History:
+The Rat Pack was a trio of childlike robots created by Mendel Stromm to assist Norman Osborn during his elaborate plot against Peter Parker and Ben Reilly.; Designed to resemble ordinary children, the robots were left playing among the ruins of Midtown High School, which had been devastated during Onslaught's attack on New York City. Their purpose was to lure Peter Parker into what appeared to be a rescue situation, delaying him while Stromm, operating as Gaunt, attempted to eliminate Ben Reilly and prevent Peter from reaching the hospital where Mary Jane Watson had gone into premature labor.; The deception initially succeeded, as Peter attempted to escort the children to safety. However, after Gaunt launched his attack on Spider-Man, the robots activated, revealing their true nature when their eyes began glowing. Working alongside Gaunt, the Rat Pack attacked Peter while Stromm battled Ben Reilly.; Each member possessed different abilities. Willis could extend his limbs into razor-sharp appendages, Daisy possessed superhuman strength and agility, while the third, unnamed member could project powerful blasts of flame from its eyes. Despite their combined assault, Peter Parker ultimately defeated the robotic trio after learning that Mary Jane's condition had become critical, allowing him to leave for the hospital.; The ultimate fate of the Rat Pack was never revealed.

+Base of operations: Mount Charteris, Colorado
+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+Notes: Jolt was able to pull herself back together, and rejoin the Thunderbolts.
+History:
+The Reedemers were first formed to ferret out a conspiracy within the Commission on Superhuman Activities in a joint operation between Valerie Cooper and the V-Battalion. They were created as a mirror of the original Thunderbolts:; Citizen V – John Watkins III, the real grandson of the original Citizen V that Zemo pretended to be (possessed by Zemo at this time); Smuggler – Conrad Josten, Atlas's younger brother, using Erik's second super-villain identity; Beetle – Leila Davis, an old foe of Abner Jenkins in his super-villain identity; Meteorite – Valerie Barnhardt, using Moonstone's heroic identity; Scream – analog to Screaming Mimi (and secretly her ex-boyfriend Angar the Screamer); Fixer – formerly Techno of the Thunderbolts, back in his original criminal identity and forced to work for the CSA; The Redeemers managed to learn that the conspiracy involved a mind-controlled Henry Peter Gyrich. When the Redeemers confronted Gyrich, he used nanites to control them and make them fight the Thunderbolts team. After the Thunderbolts were disbanded and most members pardoned, Jolt and Charcoal were added to the Redeemer program. The team trained, briefly, with Captain America.; Graviton returned to Earth, looking to fight the Thunderbolts. Finding the Redeemers at Mt. Charteris instead, he attacked and massacred the entire team. Scream vanished in a vacuum and Charcoal was ripped apart and spread across the desert as dust. The gravitational forces keeping Jolt's bioelectric form together were removed, dispersing her body, while Meteorite was left floating in the upper atmosphere to suffocate. The Beetle and her armor were crushed into a tiny box and Smuggler was apparently hurled into the Sun. Citizen V and Fixer survived the assault, but the Redeemers were no more. Years later it was discovered that Smuggler had survived by teleporting into the darkforce dimension. Baron Zemo used Conrad's life as a bargaining chip to ensure Atlas would help him defeat Genis.

+Trivia: Remont means "repair" or "overhaul"
+History:
+The Remont 6 are a group of Soviet revolutionaries led by Iron Maiden. The other members include Titanium Man, Unicorn, Volga and the Snow Leopards. Their goals are based on the 'Remont' plan -- a rebirth of Soviet Russia to the glory days of Stalin.; The team began as the Remont 6 under the leadership of Crimson Dynamo. Shalatov wanted to restore Russia to its former glory and formed the Remont 6 as a means to that end. Under circumstances beyond his control, Shalatov was forced to help Iron Man defeat a crazed Titanium Man when he remotely had the Dynamo Armor (which was being piloted by Tony Stark). Because this sanctioning was not "officially authorized" Shalatov was reassigned and the Dynamo Armor was taken from him -- effectively dissolving the Remont 6 for some time.; Reformed as the Remont 6 the group features two of the original members. This group comes into conflict with the Winter Guard after they raid an A.I.M. facility.

+Notes: The Rejects are seemingly an equivalent to the Deviants being physically randomly deformed individuals, opposed to the Chosen, who seemingly stand as an equivalent to the Eternals, being great-powered human-looking individuals.
+History:
+On a planet far from Earth, the Celestials visited and evolved the native species, much like the mutants of Earth. The beings evolved into super powered beings, some of them having outward alterations and other having interior alterations. The two groups began to segregate and the physically deformed beings became known as the Rejects, while the other, more humanoid, group became the Chosen. The Celestials, who were called "Space Gods", returned four times and judged both groups, finding them acceptable and leaving them to progress until their next appearance. The Space Gods were worshiped and considered saviors by both the Rejects and the Chosen, each group praying to the Celestials to sway the gods to their own petty purposes. After believing that the Space Gods did not hear their prayers, a third group emerged, compromised of both Rejects and Chosen, calling themselves, the Beginagains. Eventually, all groups began to become envious of each other and the whole planet began to war with each other.; The Rejects moved to the forests and woods, while the Chosen began to build huge cities. The Beginagains moved underground, so as to not be seen with either group.

+The Reavers were cyborgs created by Donald Pierce who worked as mercenaries loyal to Apocalypse. Apocalypse allowed them to survive as humans in his domain due to their enhanced cyborg nature and for providing their technology to him.; In order to covertly attack his enemies, the Human High Council, Apocalypse had the Reavers smuggle themselves aboard a Sentinel evacuating the remaining humans from North America, knowing that their cyborg nature would allow them to slip past the security in Europe without issue. Learning that the Human High Council was plotting a nuclear strike -- thanks to insider information from traitor Brian Braddock -- Peirce, Slocum, and Clegg attacked the airships, destroying their manual controls. The mutant mercenary Weapon X clashed with them, slaying Slocum and Clegg, but Pierce would escaped.; When Weapon X traveled to Wundagore Mountain to convince the mutant teleporter Gateway to help teleport the airship strike force to America, he was attacked by Pierce, Dead Eye, Mangle, and Vultura. Weapon X destroyed Dead Eye, Mangle, and Vultura with the aid of his friend Carol Danvers, who sacrificed herself in battle, seemingly slaying Pierce.; Pierce survived, and using scrap components from other slain Reavers, turned Carol into a loyal cyborg. They attacked the airfleet one more time, with Pierce killing Brian Braddock in the process. In the final conflict, Weapon X convinced Carol to shake off Pierce's conditioning only for her to be slain by Pierce as well. Furious at seeing his friend killed, Weapon X surprised Pierce by impaling him with the claws hidden in the forearm of his severed hand, seemingly killing him instantly.

+History:
+===Origin===; The Red Right Hand was a criminal organization created by people whose lives had been tragically affected by Wolverine in some way or another. The organization was created by a man only known as The Founder. Through the years, The Founder recruited several members who likewise had a personal vendetta against Wolverine.; The Organization decided that the worst punishment for the seemingly un-killable Wolverine was to send his soul to Hell. The Husband was approached by a demon which he made a deal with in exchange for letting the demon possess Wolverine body. The creature became Hellverine and decided to track down each of Wolverine’s friends and family to kill them one-by-one.; When The Founder created this criminal organization, Daken discovered its existence and joined them in order to help them get their revenge against Wolverine. To that end, Daken decided to find his father’s children all around the world through the years, he then gave them to the Red Right Hand and on his advice, the criminal organization trained them in order to use them as weapons against Logan. Daken knew that they wouldn't stand a chance against Logan but having his father killing them would hurt him in the worst way possible. Those children would be known as the Mongrels.; ===Quest for Revenge===; The Mongrels became the organization's most trusted and loyal enforcers and was composed of Gunhawk, Shadow S., Fire Knives, Saw Fist, and Cannon Foot. After the Red Right Hand hired Mystique to help them send Wolverine's soul to Hell, the team tracked down Wolverine's current girlfriend, Melita Garner and found her working in the San Francisco Post building.; The team headed into the building taking out the security on the way. When they found Melita and attacked they were shocked to find her with a Skrull sonic disruptor, which she proceeded to fire at the team. But Melita was saved by Mystique, who decided to betray the Red Right Hand after she learned that they intended to have Logan kill his own children. Thanks to her help, Melita got away from the Mongrels and Gunhawk returned to report to the The Red Right Hand their failure and Mystique's betrayal, it was then decided they were to proceed to their next target in Madripoor.; Gunhawk and the team arrived in Madripoor and traveled through the city to find the Princess Bar. They entered and massacred the bouncers and staff, but Tyger Tiger intervened when Gunhawk tried to open a certain door. Gunhawk told Tyger that “Logan is in hell” and burned down the room filled with mementos and possessions which Wolverine had accumulated over his long lifetime. Tyger asked why they are doing this but all Gunhawk would say was Wolverine has made his and the rest of the team's lives a living hell.; The Red Right Hand decided to take care of Mystique for her betrayal and sent Hellverine after her to, but Mystique escaped. Hellverine also confronted Daken after he refused to kill Mystique, but the demon let him live while the rest of world believed he was dead. Afterwards bothe Hellverine and the Red Right Hand went after a list of other targets such as John Wraith, the X-Men, Yukio, Amiko Kobayashi, Wolverine's daughter X-23, and his fellow Team X member Maverick. Most of them survived except for the Silver Samurai who was killed by the Red Right Hand's army, and John Wraith who was killed by Hellverine.; ===Final Revenge===; After Wolverine escaped from Hell and banished Hellverine, he killed Mystique, and was lured to the Red Right Hand's base in Mexico where they pitted him one-by-one against the members of the Mongrels. Despite what they did to his friends, Wolverine gave each one of them a chance to surrender peacefully but the Mongrels attacked him on sight and tried to kill him. As a result Wolverine killed most of them, while the others killed themselve; after defeating the leader of the Mongrels, Gunhawk, Logan confronted the members of the Red Right Hand. But the Red Right Hand's final revenge against Wolverine was to deny him his own revenge against them, to that end each member committed suicide, leaving Wolverine with only a message: the Mongrels were his children, this revelation and the fact that he killed his own children devastated Logan.; The members of the Red Right Hand then went to Hell were they were greeted by their dead loved ones, except for The Son.

+History:
+Red Sun was a team of Russian paranormals created by the White Event. The healer Anastasia Inyushin should have been on the team but was taken to America by Emmett Proudhawk before it was formed; of the five paranormals eventually chosen, Leonid Vishnevesky (Force Point) was an elderly mechanic with the power to make things explode with his mind who was blackmailed into the program by threats against his family, while Irina Mityushova (Animal) was a fifteen year old girl who had transformed into a bestial monster and lost most of her intellect in the process, team leader Nadehzda (Cubic) could create cube shaped force fields, Dehman Doosha was an autistic child with pyrokinetic abilities who was considered too dangerous to be used, and Rodstvow was a phenomenally powerful but totally mad paranormal who was a danger to all around him. Leonid was eventually shot dead by accident by the mercenary Potiphar while trying to help Psi-Force escape from the Siberian Project in return for their assistance in finding his family (Potiphar had in fact come to rescue them and did not realize that Leonid was on their side) while Irina was apparently either killed or seriously injured while attempting to halt the rampage of Rodstvow when he began indiscriminately killing everyone in the Project. Rodstvow was subsequently killed by Dehman Doosha, who (now going by the name 'Johnny Do') was then removed from the Project by Psi-Force and joined their ranks.

The riot quickly moved to Mutant Square as Strong Guy, Wolfsbane, and several former mutants fighting the Reals.

+History:
+After King Kull mistakenly released the curse of the tombs of the first true men, a Red Slayer was among the first to succumb to it, entering the king's court maddened and sword drawn, before being stopped by his fellow Red Slayers. Kull looked for a wizard to solve the issue. Red Slayer Emandax offered his wife Ofira's services, hoping to be promoted to captain of the Red Slayers. Ofira tried to seduce Kull, but was spurned and told Emandax Kull had tried to force himself upon her. Furious, Emandax rallied Red Slayers around him, intending to slay Kull during the upcoming battle against Varicus of Zarfhaana. Ragmar, the court poet of Zarfhaana sentenced to death by Varicus but who was offered asylum by Kull (thus causing war between Valusia and Zarfhaana), slew the Red Slayer who guarded the royal treasury chamber he stumbled upon in the Palace. Ragmar was soon avenged by Kull. During the battle, Emandax launched the signal and first targeted Brule, who slew him. The battle initially went badly for the Valusians after Ofira, now in service of Varicus, casted a spell to turn the Zarfhaanan into powerful elk-men, but the Valusians prevailed after Sen-Dor disrupted the spell.; ==Ranking==; The Red Slayers, as well as other branches of the Valusian forces, seemingly used "general" and "commander" indistinctively.

+History:
+The rebels were a group of resistance fighters led by the Thing who opposed the tyrannical ruler of Dystopia, Baron Maestro. Rebel member Ruby Summers found an old man in the desert who claimed to be the Asgardian leader, Odin and brought him back to their underground base to meet their boss. After being scanned by Slider, Maestro revealed himself and attacked them, drawing the Thing's attention.; A fierce battle ensued between the two powerhouses. When the battle was taken to the city above, the other rebels started to be relocated while Ruby and Janis tried to help their leader, but Ruby got captured by one of Maestro's Dogs of War. Janis followed them to somewhere far from the battle site, and it was there that the Gravity officer revealed herself as Layla Miller, one of the rebels who had infiltrated Maestro's ranks. In the meanwhile, the Thing was defeated and taken to Maestro's castle.; With the Thing immobilized, Maestro told him about his plans to overthrow God-Doom and asked for his help, which made him curious. With Layla's help, Ruby, Janis, Skooter and some other rebels infiltrated Maestro's castle to rescue their leader and take Maestro down, but discovered Thing had made a deal with the tyrant that he would help him get the only weapon in the world capable of destroying Doom: the Destroyer, in exchange for the Maestro turning Dystopia over to the Thing. After the rebels agreed to help him in his quest, Maestro and his new-found temporary allies traveled to Norseheim, where, according to the book he stole from Doom, they would find Ulik the Troll, who would guide them to the Destroyer Armor. To get information about Ulik's whereabouts, the group entered a local pub and found Hoder, who revealed to them that Ulik was in Nornheim and told them where they would find its entrance.; As soon as they entered Nornheim, Maestro and the rebels were attacked by Ulik and his Trolls. The battle ended when Ulik, after being severely beaten by Maestro, surrendered and commanded the other Trolls to do the same. He then guided Maestro and the remaining rebels to the Ancient One, who, to the rebel's surprise, was none other than Rick Jones.; Rick led them without delay to the Destroyer and told Maestro to take the armor. Distrustful, Maestro grabbed Rick by the collar and said that it couldn't be that simple, with Rick replying that it wasn't as he had already summoned Doom as that was his place of power, a wish central, to which all wishing wells were connected. Maestro then approached the armor and, as Doom showed up, merged with it. A battle ensued between Doom and Maestro while the rebels and Rick fled. Without much effort, Maestro was able to overpower Doom and finally kill him and seize control over Battleworld as its new God Emperor. Or so he thought.; In reality, Maestro never merged with the armor, actually he was standing before it, boasting about his imaginary new position as Battleworld's new God Emperor. Rick revealed to the rebels that as he had said earlier, that place was a wishing well, it granted wishes, so it granted his and there he would stay until his death. As they left, Rick stayed behind with the Maestro until the end of time as Doom had assigned him to.

Due to this universe having been the epicenter of the rebirth of the Multiverse, in it abounded a substance known as Iso-8, which originated as a byproduct of creation itself.; The Elders of the Universe arrived from their native universe and decided to stage a Contest of Champions for control of a concentrated ingot of Iso-8 known as the Iso-Sphere, with the Grandmaster and the Collector fighting for control, with the Collector's team, being dubbed the Red Team.; As contestants entered and left the game, the Collector remained with most of the Iso-Sphere, while the Grandmaster was left with a sliver, that made him barely powerful. During a final all-or-nothing match for the Iso-Sphere, Maestro and Punisher betrayed the people they had summoned and took them down. Maestro subsequently teleported to Grandmaster's HQ, and managed to defeat him due to the Grandmaster barely possessing any of the Iso-Sphere's power. The two portions of the Iso-Sphere desired to be with each other, prevented only by their owner's will. In a battle of minds, Maestro trumped the Collector's desire to possess the Iso-Sphere and acquired its entirety.; With entire control over the Iso-Sphere, Maestro cast out the Collector and the Grandmaster from the Battlerealm. Together with the Punisher of 2099, they imprisoned the Red and Yellow Teams and attempted to kill them one by one.

+History:
+After a twisted fascist version of Captain America allowed Hydra Helicarriers to destroy Las Vegas due to activity from the Underground, Black Widow felt that the only course of action now was to kill Rogers so that acts like what happened in Las Vegas weren't repeated. Widow initially struck out on her own, but she was approached by members of the Champions (Hulk, Spider-Man, and Viv), as well as Falcon, Ironheart, and Wasp, who wanted to help her to ensure the vision of Miles Morales killing Rogers didn't come to pass. Widow eventually agreed to their help.; Widow began training the young heroes in tactics and in espionage through possible scenarios conducted in virtual simulations, and by infiltrating the Hydra Youth Choir. The young heroes increasingly began to question Widow's methods especially when she tortured a Hydra agent to get information out of him. The Champions advocated mercy for the Hydra agent. Widow agreed and started untying him from the chair he was tied to, but Widow was forced to kill him when he suddenly attacked with a concealed knife.; While the teenagers conducted a rescue mission to free Mosaic from Hydra, Widow allowed herself to be captured by Viper so she could blackmail into helping her assassinate Steve Rogers. Viper eventually agreed to help Widow. Widow then received word from the young heroes they found their target: a frail old man barely clinging to life. The heroes expressed doubt that the man was their target, but Widow assured them that he was.; Wasp almost left the team out of indignation over the way Black Widow had been manipulating her and others and compared it to her own experiences in the Red Room. Wasp was ultimately convinced to remain by her teammates. When Black Widow heard over a radio of the destruction of the Mount and that there were no survivors, she mistakenly believed that everyone in the Underground had been killed. She angrily told her trainees that Hydra had killed their friends and that they were going to kill Steve Rogers.; Later, Widow positioned herself in the ruins of the Capitol Building as Rogers headed a ceremony ready to shoot him dead with a sniper rifle while the others were among the crowd to provide intel. Mosaic took possession of Hydra guards to neutralize them. To make sure Spider-Man didn't intervene, Widow locked him in her van, telling him that she didn't want him to become a murderer. Before Widow could kill Rogers, she was attacked by the Punisher. She managed to subdue him, but then she spotted Spider-Man confronting Rogers after escaping from the van. Widow tried to stop Spider-Man's and Rogers' fight and was struck in the neck by Rogers' shield, killing her almost instantly. Spider-Man exploded in rage and brutally beat Rogers. He almost killed Rogers but was talked down by Wasp from doing so. The members of the Red Room were then arrested by Hydra forces while Rogers was carried away.; When a contingent of superheroes launched a desperate attack on Hydra, Hydra allies Taskmaster and Black Ant recognized that Hydra was about fall. The pair chose to switch sides and free the Red Room from their prison cell to be in the heroes' good graces. The Red Room fled to join their fellow heroes in the fight against Hydra, but not before Spider-Man webbed Taskmaster's and Black Ant's faces to a wall.; Hydra was eventually defeated when the true Steve Rogers appeared and defeated the Hydra Steve Rogers. With Hydra defeated, the Red Room disbanded.

He pulled together metal to create a new armor for himself which was an exact duplicate of the one his counterpart wore in this time. They thought Magneto was supposedly back from the dead, so the Reavers tried to escape but Magneto killed them by impaling them with metal shrapnel.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Bosqueverde
+Affiliation: Bosqueverde; Bosqueverde Army
+Weapons: Traditional military weaponry.
+Transportation: Helicopter (destroyed).
+Notes: Marvel Atlas Vol 1 2 talks about the Red Condors, then mentions the "Condor's own helicopter", instead of the "Condors' own helicopter."
+Trivia: Rabio Ramirez's callsign was "Condor Uno" ("uno" being Spanish for "one"). Possibly the other Condors had similar callsigns as "Condor Dos" to "Condor Seis."
+History:
+The Red Condors was the name of a six-man elite unit in the Bosqueverde Army, that mostly performed brutal military attacks for high amounts of money during the democratic government of President Silva; however, they also had worked with former dictator General Carranza. Condor leader Rabio Ramirez had his own account in the Cayman Islands to receive the payment, then distribute it among his men. This allowed Ramirez to skim a part of the money for himself. The Condors had access to commando military weaponry and moved in a helicopter; being so smug with their success rate, they worried little about their approach being detected.; When General Carranza was arrested in the United States and escaped to Bosqueverde, the government purportedly arrested there too, keeping him in a prison compound in Sierra Angeles - but Carranza had access to luxuries and no agency attack him due to pressure he had managed to exercise. However, vigilante Punisher tracked him to Sierra Angeles, killing some of his soldiers in the area. Carranza hired the Red Condors to protect him for three million dollars, thou Ramirez told his men the payment was only one million dollars.; The Condors went to the jungles in Sierra Angeles by chopper, then used a bomb on a bridge against the Punisher; they managed to leave him injured, temporarily deaf, and on a river where they could find him next. Condors Carlos and Manuel went after the Punisher, but the Punisher killed Carlos with a knife. Ramirez criticized Carlos' poor performance, then had Manuel report to Carranza about the attacker. Carranza recognized the Punisher from a previous encounter.; The Punisher then eliminted the other Condors one by one, capturing Reynardo, tying him to a tree with a blindfold and torturing him as a bait for the others. He also baited them using Reynardo's radio; Ramirez ordered radio silence so as to not reveal their position, unaware that the Punisher could not hear them. Condors Manuel and Jorgito wanted to help their partner in need, but Ramirez ordered them not to, because if they tried to, the Punisher would know their position and attack them. Condor Tico nevertheless tried to help Reynardo, but was immediately shot when he moved. The Punisher then attracted Jorgito to a position where Jorgito believed the Punisher was, then killed Jorgito with a burst from behind. When only Ramirez and Manuel were left standing, Manuel wanted to leave; Ramirez told him that they were enough to beat the Punisher, and also revealed that the payment was far more than Manuel had thought. Manuel was angry at Ramirez's greed, and then Punisher shot Manuel dead. Immediately after that, the Punisher shot Ramirez's weapon to break it. Ramirez tried to escape and asked the helicopter for retrieval, but was then caught and killed by the Punisher.; The Punisher then impersonated Ramirez to hijack the helicopter. With only partial information, Carranza believed that the Condors had killed the Punisher and celebrated; and then the Punisher crashlanded the Condors' helicopter on the prison compound, killing Carranza and some of his allies.; It is unclear whether the Red Condors were discontinued after this botched operation.

The Redeemers viewed the Squadron Supreme as fascists for the way they imposed their views of justice on the world and wanted to end it. The Redeemers had clashed at least once with the Squadron Savage, a team of brainwashed supervillains forced by the government to carry out secret missions the Squadron Savage couldn't carry out legally. The Redeemers were forced to retreat but not before losing their member Cloak who was brainwashed and made a member of the Squadron Savage.; Later, the Redeemers joined forces with Kang the Conqueror who promised to alter reality so that the Squadron Supreme never existed. They operated in a power plant in the country of Chernia. The Squadron Savage was sent to stop the Redeemers as sending in the Squadron Supreme would result in an international incident. The clash between the Squadron Savage and the Redeemers left Haywire, Mink, Remnant, and Thermite dead. After Kang was killed, the surviving members Foxfire and Moonglow were taken in custody and forced to join the Squadron Savage.

This ended when his teammates allied with the Avengers and condemned Omnibus to death in the Arctic.

+History:
+The Renegades were a loose collaboration of heroes who came together during World War Hulk. Initially, they banded together to help evacuate the city and to keep the Hulk's rampage contained. Their efforts centered around the passionate goal of young Amadeus Cho, who believed that the Hulk could be reasoned with. S.H.I.E.L.D. field commander Gabriel Jones deputized them for the duration of the Hulk War because he recognized that Cho's superior intellect might give them an advantage whereas military might failed.; The Renegades learned that the Hulk and his loyal followers, the Warbound, were creating their own gladiatorial arena in the heart of Manhattan where they were torturing fallen superheroes. The Renegades infiltrated Madison Square Garden where the arena had been built and found notable heroes such as Iron Man and Mister Fantastic bound by obedience disks that robbed them of the ability to fight back. Following World War Hulk, the team disbanded though Hercules and Amadeus Cho remained in the New York City area where they conducted a strategic attack against S.H.I.E.L.D. and Ares after an attempt to force them to capitulate to their demands.

However, he made the mistake of killing Thanos, Earth-616's Avatar of Death, thus allowing Earth-616's Death to enter the Cancerverse and strike down all of its inhabitants.; Due to Earth-616's Death not applying to the Cancerverse, the Revengers were brought back to life and tried to use a Cosmic Cube in possession of Star-Lord, who stayed in the Cancerverse with Nova (Rich Rider) and Drax the Destroyer to prevent Thanos from returning to their universe, to invade Earth-616 again, but Thanos was able to seize it from them.; After Rider used the Cosmic Cube to become a portal and send Drax, Star-Lord, and Thanos back home, the Revengers killed him time and time again, until he sacrificed the entire Nova Force and the Xandarian Worldmind to power the Cosmic Cube and return home. Abandoned, the Xandarian Worldmind adapted to its surroundings by becoming one with it. Some time later, when Rider returned to the Cancerverse to get rid of its infection, the Xandarian Worldmind ordered the Revengers to attack him, but he managed to escape with the help of fellow Nova Sam Alexander.; Later, led by Earth-616's Void, who was posing as the Sentry, the Revengers invaded the Negative Zone and found Nova again.

They consisted of the surviving members of the Twenty-First Regiment of the Union Army under the command of Captain Hillcroft, and the 105th Calvary of the Confederate Army under the command of Captain Barclay. They clashed in the badlands of the American Frontier and although they knew the Civil War eventually ended, they came to believe that they were discarded by their government and so the two armies banded together and began raiding nearby towns and became known as the Riders of Doom. Ironically enough, the Riders were unopposed by anyone due to the fact that both factions of the Riders were considered heroes of the war in the eyes of the citizens, lawmen, and soldiers in the area.; Eventually, the Riders of the Doom crossed paths with the outlaw hero known as the Ringo Kid. Ringo did not like how they were raiding towns unopposed and clashed with them on their latest raid, sending them fleeing. Learning how nobody was standing up to them, the Ringo Kid rode out to the badlands where they were camped out. With scouts spotting him, the Ringo Kid was forced to face the best soldiers of each faction one-on-one and eventually won all the duels. When the Captains of the group told the Kid why they were raiding towns, the Kid convinced them that they were wrong and that the Untied States government has land waiting for them all, ending their raids and causing the group to disband.

+Transportation: Goblin Glider
+History:
+The domain of Spider-Island was taken over by the Spider Queen after infecting almost every citizen with a spider-virus before a cure could be developed including the Avengers. A few citizens that escaped the Spider-Queen's control formed an underground resistance to end the Spider-Queen's rule.; A glimmer of hope arose when it was discovered that Werewolf by Night broke free from the Spider-Queen's control by becoming a werewolf. So, Agent Venom of the Resistance, who avoided being controlled by merging with the Venom symbiote, gathered various drugs and mystical artifacts that altered DNA and break the Spider-Queen's control over people. The Resistance lured the brainwashed Avengers into a trap and transformed three of them into different creatures to break Spider-Queen's hold over them.; The transformed heroes aided the Resistance when more brainwashed Avengers arrived. During the fight, Agent Venom was able to free Iron Man from the Spider-Queen's control by spraying with the Goblin Formula, which transformed him into the Iron Goblin. Iron Goblin informed Venom of where to find the Spider-Queen's Brain Trust, an old A.I.M. base. So, the Resistance attacked the location while Venom infiltrated it and found Stegron, the Spider-Queen's expert in genetic manipulation. Venom transformed Stegron into reptilian form and break the Queen's hold over him. Vision also found former Avenger Spider-Man. It was believed he had died but had actually been kept in stasis by the Spider-Queen.; After the Resistance returned to their underground base, Iron Goblin and Stegron started to build a retro-regression ray. It was decided by the Resistance to transform some of their loved ones in order to free them of the Queen's control. Though it was what the Queen wanted them to do, they decided to do it so they didn't lose their human sides. The Resistance were successful in rescuing Mary Jane Watson, Sharon Carter, Betty Brant, and Carlie Cooper by transforming them into Lizard creatures using the Lizard's Lizard Formula. However, the Spider-Queen had placed tracking devices into the women, which allowed a spider-army to locate and attack the Resistance's base. The Resistance was able to escape thanks to Iron Goblin's sacrifice.; The Resistance fled to the ruins of the Avengers Mansion and made that their new base. Using Stegron's Retro-Regression Ray on dinosaur fossils found in the Museum of National History, the dinosaurs were brought back to life and used as diversions for Spider-Queen's forces. This allowed the Resistance to launch an attack on Stark Tower, which the Queen had converted into her castle. Agent Venom and Captain America were to able to capture the Queen, but the Resistance became divided over whether they should kill her or let her live. The Queen took this opportunity to transform into a giant spider.; The Spider-Queen quickly overpowered the Resistance. Agent Venom then came up with a plan. He convinced his Venom symbiote to leave him and merge with the Spider-Queen. The symbiote then forced the Queen to jump out of a window high above Manhattan. The Queen killed the symbiote by blasting it with sonic attacks, but it was too late to halt her descent, and she crashed onto the street below. Too injured too move, Stegron ordered his dinosaurs to finish her off by eating her. Sadly, Venom was grievously hurt and died of his injuries. He spent his final moments surrounded by his allies and died shortly after Peter reciprocated Flash's claims that he was a hero.

+Transportation: Formerly Hell Charger, Ant-Venom's Ants
+Notes: Based on comments made in Venomverse: War Stories Vol 1 1 and Venomverse Vol 1 4, it can be assumed that most of the Poisons seen in Venomverse were once members of the Resistance who had been summoned by Doctor Strange before being consumed by Poisons.
+History:
+The Resistance was formed when the Doctor Strange of Earth-22249 came across a Venom symbiote being hunted by a Hive of crystalline aliens called Poisons.; Finding himself hunted by the Poisons as a result of bonding to the symbiote, Strange began summoning Venoms from across the Multiverse; engaging in a brutal war with the Poisons. This backfired as it alerted the Poisons to the existence of the Multiverse and rapidly became a losing battle, as every member lost by the Resistance would become a member of the Hive, grossly turning the tables of every battle.; The Resistance refused to give up, however, eventually summoning the Venom of Earth-616. This led to the Hive gaining Spider-Man and Captain America as members and Doctor Strange as a captive. Luckily, before his capture, Strange summoned a new player, Carnage, to the war.; Carnage's bloodlust gave the Resistance an upper hand in battle, and Poison Gwenpool was captured and interrogated because of this.; New intel and the double agent Poison Deadpool allowed the Venoms to infiltrate the Hive's base on Earth-22249, taking out the Poison presence there and allowing most of the members to return to their many homes.

+History:
+The Resistance was a small contingent of superheroes that opposed President Osborn's totalitarian regime. They were provided with technology and information by Gwen Stacy.; She directed the reality-displaced Spider-Man from the Prime Marvel Universe and his allies to the Resistance in hopes of finding somebody to help them figure out how to return to their proper timeline. After Captain America suggested getting Doctor Doom, the Resistance broke into the super-prison where he was being held, and confronted Ben Grimm in the process.; The Resistance took Doctor Doom to the Oscorp warehouse where his Time Platform was stored so he could make the necessary preparations for Spider-Man to use it, but the building was quickly surrounded by Norman Osborn's forces. Gwen Stacy and Peter Parker, who had returned to the mantle of Spider-Man, appeared to hold the line, and the Resistance joined the fray not long afterwards. In the middle of the fight, Captain America was shot by Kraven the Hunter. This timeline's Spider-Man attempted to stop Kraven, but his webline missed the villain's weapon due to lack of practise.; Following Osborn's retreat since his forces were all defeated, Doctor Strange analyzed Rogers' body and discovered he was still clinging to life, and they all just needed to respark his flame within. Despite his reluctance to leave, Spider-Man and his allies prepared to return to their timeline, since Peter gave his alternate counterpart the assurance that he was going to continue fighting against Osborn.

+History:
+After Doctor Doom took control of the world due to chaos brought about by superheroes constantly fighting one another, a resistance group was formed to end his rule. Spider-Man became the leader of this group due to his age and experience. Doom's rule over Earth was depended on the technology he developed. The Resistance eventually came up with a plan to exploit this dependency: Spider-Man and his young protege Miles Morales would go up to a space station containing a "Doomsday Pulse" created by Tony Stark that would disable Doom's technology and make it easier to fight his rule.; After fighting off a symbiote-possessed Kraven the Hunter, Spider-Man confronted Doctor Octopus who had switched bodies with Miles and planned to kill Spider-Man and take the credit for stopping Doom. Spider-Man eventually subdued Doc Ock with a vision of his Aunt May and sent him back to Earth in Miles' body using an escape pod while he remaining behind on the space station to make sure the Doomsday Pulse was fired with help from the Venom symbiote. The Doomsday Pulse successfully fired, though the space station then self-destructed, killing Spider-Man. Whether Doom's regime was finally ended is unrevealed.

Their business was in the illegal arms trade, from gunrunning to arms sales. One of the individuals that they did business with was the mutant Stryfe.; He came to their place, angry that the weapons they were supposed to supply him with were gone. The men of the family went to the front yard and opened up on him, only to see the bullets bounce off him. Stryfe knocked them all out and approached Louis Alejandro Richter, the patriarch of the family. Who defended his actions, saying that Stryfe was two weeks later and the police were getting nosy. Therefore he sold the merchandise to Hydra at a loss to get rid of the evidence. Stryfe decided to spare the family but killed Louis.; Rictor was inside the house but witnessed the fight and death of his father. He rejected the family business and left when he was old enough. Rictor went back to Guadalajara, Mexico to visit his family and face his past when one of the family was arrested and another one ended up in the hospital due to a firefight they had with the police.

+Transportation: Formerly Magik's teleportation power
+History:
+The Respawned were a new intelligent and hungry parasitic race which resulted from Brood planting eggs in the corpse of Galactus. The parasites were sub-microbial and hive-minded. When they invaded a host, the parasite killed the host body upon exposure and reanimated the corpse, meaning there was no cure.; From there, the Respawned proceeded to devour whole galaxies, and eventually, a large group of the Respawned made their way to the edge of Earth's Solar System, using Galactus' zombified corpse as transport and the source of their hive mind. Then Captain Marvel, having been turned into one of the Respawned, sent out a distress signal at Galactus' coordinates, luring a team of Avengers, X-Men, and the Fantastic Four to investigate.; When this team arrived, they were ambushed by Captain Marvel and the large horde of Respawned. The ensuing battle resulted in the infection or death of the whole team (except for Wolverine) at the hands of the Respawned. Following the battle, the Galactus Hive made its way to Earth with the Respawned, and the Hunger Cosmic spread to the general population as well as metahumans, decimating the planet.; Years later, the Respawned used Magik's teleportation power to move their operations and Galactus into Limbo, which they now called Blackspring. With Magik's teleportation, they planned to spread the Hunger Cosmic across the Multiverse, but they first needed to find and zombify Franklin Richards so they could use his enormous mutant power for their own use. They managed to trick Franklin as well as his sister Valeria, Spider-Man, Blade, the Sentinel Nana, and Chewie into coming to Atlantis before transporting them and Wolverine to Limbo.; When attempting to zombify Franklin, Invisible Woman discovered that Franklin had been turned into a Techno-Organic Being, making him immune to zombification. Enraged, she tried to rip Spider-Man apart, only for Valeria to destroy her, declaring that the zombie was not her mother. Franklin and the others then went to the corpse of Galactus and destroyed it. With the zombies cut off from their hive mind, the blast seemingly killed all of Earth's superpowered Respawned, ruining the Respawned's plan to spread across the Multiverse and severely weakening if not removing their dominance of Earth. Franklin kept the severed head of the Silver Surfer, who warned Franklin that their Queen was coming for them, and knew what has transpired.

+Trivia: As seen in a concept art, the fight sequence with the Deadpool Corps originally was meant to happen with the Resistance, including surviving members Human Torch, Daredevil and Ghost Rider, the latter character being cut from the film entirely. The sequence was ultimately scrapped due to budget constraints.
+History:
+Some of the heroes that were pruned by the TVA and sent to the Void, managed to survive long enough to evade Alioth and have banded together to oppose the tyrannical rule of Cassandra Nova who ruled the Void with brutal cruelty. The Resistance heroes were able to hide from Alioth in the Borderlands but remained unable to take down Cassandra, who would go on to kill any of them who tried to go up against her, including Magneto, The Punisher, Quicksilver and the Daredevil.; One day, after Johnny Storm has been missing for two days, Laura brought to their hideout Deadpool and Wolverine who were recently deposited to the Void. Elektra, Blade and Gambit soon arrived and learned from the newcomers than Johnny had been killed. Deadpool revealed that he and Wolverine had been to Cassandra's lair and had managed to escape, and that Cassandra possessed a way out of the Void. A plan was formulated to block her powers by using the Juggernaut's helmet, and after a motivational speech by Deadpool the four surviving Resistance members agreed to attempt one final strike against Cassandra to secure their legacy. Wolverine initially tried to stay out, but was persuaded by Laura to join as well.; At dawn, the six of them set out for Cassandra's lair inside a Honda Odyssey. Blade used Punisher's rocket launcher to blast their way inside, killing Blob in the process, where the Resistance was confronted by Cassandra's army of henchmen. Wolverine and Deadpool went after Nova, while the other four stayed behind to provide cover. During the battle, Laura managed to kill the Juggernaut and toss his helmet up to others, while Elektra, Blade and Gambit had killed most of those who worked for Cassandra. The plan worked, but Nova could not use her powers to get anyone out of the Void while the helmet was blocking her powers. Wolverine decided to remove it by appealing to the memory of Charles Xavier, and Cassandra was impressed enough to honor the bargain. She used a Sling Ring, having the time and reality stones embeded in it, to open a portal leading out of the Void to Drive Max at Deadpool's reality, but only Wolverine and Deadpool managed to make it through because Nova had opened it high above the ground. The Resistance four below could only stand and watch as the mission was accomplished and their legacy was secured.; Cassandra soon left the Void herself and planned to use a Time Ripper to destroy every universe, leaving only the Void beind. Deadpool and Wolverine stopped her, and after being thanked for their efforts by B-15, had asked her to retrieve their friends from the Void and get them back to their home realities.

+At the Revengers Mansion, Charlie America called the Revengers together for a team meeting. He pushed hard for a membership drive, something that other Revengers found boring. They expressed their complaints by speaking out loud, which they found eerie when they realized they were all saying the exact same thing at once. They eventually agreed, but were interrupted by a phone call warning them of a villain team hiding in a warehouse, so they went to investigate. In fact, the phone call was phony: Villains Kranky and Jokester had also phoned the Just-A-League, a Dee-See superhero team, with a similar message. They expected that the two hero teams would meet and fight each other. Indeed they did, with each of the heroes choosing a dueling opponent. The editors from both Marble and Dee-See initially rushed in to stop the chaos. But once they realize a full-blown hero-vs-hero crossover fight would boost sales, they changed their mind and started encouraging the fight.

+History:
+===Origins===; Years after the Pride was formed, Janet Stein accidentally conceived a child. This unexpected pregnancy led to the decision of each couple within the Pride conceiving one child and passing on their inheritance from the Gibborim to their children.; During an annual gathering of their parents at the Wilder's Mansion in Malibu, Alex Wilder used the secret passage he had discovered to spy on his parents and witnessed the human sacrifice during the Ritual of Blood. Alex began learning all he could about the Pride and accidentally discovered a secret pact between the Deans and Hayes to betray and murder the other.; The next year, during the same annual gathering of their parents, Alex intentionally led Nico Minoru, Chase Stein, and Gertrude Yorkes to accidentally witness their parents murdering a young woman during the Ritual of Blood while Karolina Dean and Molly Hayes waited upstairs. The children decided to keep quiet until they could meet privately.; ===Running Away===; Nico, Gert, Chase, Karolina, and Alex met at the Griffith Observatory and collectively decided to find evidence to implicate their parents in murder. Using Chase Stein's Van, the group went to Yorkes where they found a dinosaur with a telepathic link to Gert and a mysterious book called the Abstract. The group then traveled to the Deans home where they learned Karolina was an alien. The group next traveled to the Steins where they discovered Victor's workshop and procured the Fistigons and X-Ray Specs. They were also ambushed by the Minorus and Steins but were able to obtain the Staff of One in the process. The group's final stop was to rescue Molly from the Hayes where Alex also secured Ring of the Abstract. In an effort to get their children back, the Pride framed them for the murder of Destiny Gonzales and the kidnapping of Molly Hayes. With nowhere left to run, the group took shelter in Chase's Hostel, a 1920s mansion buried during an earthquake in Bronson Canyon.; During a food run the group stumbled upon a store robbery, and after thwarting the adult robbers, the Runaways recruited Topher. Once they returned to the Hostel, Topher revealed he was a vampire and began attacking. To save Nico, Karolina offered herself to Topher, who died after biting Karolina due to her blood being infused with solar energy.; Continuing to search for the children, Lieutenant Flores hired Cloak & Dagger unknowingly against the wishes of the Pride. After a brief confrontation with the Runaways, the pair learned the truth and promised to contact the Avengers. However, Alex was able to tip off the Pride, who ambushed Cloak and Dagger and telepathically removed all memory of the meeting.; To forward his plans, Alex informed the LAPD of the location of the Hostel. The Runaways narrowly escaped the destruction of the Hostel and began plotting to take their parents down. The Runaways entered the Marine Vivarium and disrupted the ceremony that would give the Gibborim the power to destroy humanity. After engineering the defeat of his friends, Alex revealed himself as the mole and detailed his plans. Nico angrily refused Alex's offer to live in paradise and fighting ensued. It ended when Molly destroyed the container containing Destiny's and freeing her, Alex being killed by the Gibborim, Chase rescuing the other with the Leapfrog, and the deaths of all the Pride's members in the destruction of the Marine Vivarium.; With their parents dead, Social Services separated the Runaways. Three months after the destruction of the Pride, Karolina organized a reunion at the Griffith Observatory, where each of them expressed their annoyance and hatred towards their current living conditions. Together the team rescued Old Lace and stole the Leapfrog, and ran away again.; ===Victor Mancha and Xavin===; The Runaways eventually located one of the Pride's old lairs beneath the La Brea Tar Pits, and took up residence there. They also began defending Los Angeles from all of the villains trying to fill the power vacuum left by the absence of the Pride.; After an unsuccessful mission to rescue Excavator from his father and the Wrecking Crew, the team returned to the Hostel to be confronted by a mortally wounded Heroine, a woman claiming to Gert's future self and leader of the Avengers. Using the 4-D Time Portico, she narrowly escaped the onslaught of Victorious, with a message to the Runaways: find Victor Mancha and stop him from becoming this deadly super-villain.; The Runaways were able to find Victor Mancha despite interference from Excelsior. With the discovery of his electromagnetokinetic powers, the revelation that his father is Ultron, the prophecy of his dark future, and the death of his mother, Victor joined the Runaways and took up residence with them beneath the La Brea Tar Pits.; Just as the group was adjusting to this new normal, a Super-Skrull-in-Training name Xavin arrived. After a brief firefight and high-speed chase, Xavin was able to explain about the pact the Deans had made with Xavin's father: in exchange for sparing the Earth from a Skrull invasion, the Deans would offer the location of Majesdane and their daughter's hand in marriage. The information provided by the Deans launched a full-scale war between the Skrulls and Majesdanians prompting Xavin to travel to Earth in hopes that a marriage between the races would end the hostilities. Karolina agreed to accompany Xavin and end the Skrull-Majesdanian conflict after Xavin shape-shifted into a female form to suit Karolina's sexual preference.; Shortly after M-Day, the Runaways were approached by the X-Men, who were hoping to recruit Molly to the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters to learn and train alongside her fellow mutants. Although a fight broke out, the X-Men accepted Molly's decision to remain with her friends, but also left the invitation open.; The Runaways briefly visited New York City when they were recruited by Cloak to rescue Dagger and clear his name. While there they encountered Spider-Man and the New Avengers. After tracking down a MGH dealer the Runaways were able to Reginald Mantz and prove that he was impersonating Cloak.; The Runaways continued to defend L.A. from villains like Mole-Man, Swarm, Tarantula, Flag-Smasher, and the Silver Bullet Gang. Once, after a battle with Dragonness, Molly was knocked unconscious and "recruited" by the Provost to his ring of child thieves. Molly was able to inspire her fellow captives and together defeated the Provost.; ===The New Pride===; Shortly after Alex's death, a group of his online friends joined together to perform a spell to resurrect Alex. However, the spell killed Oscar and summoned a young Geoffrey Wilder from the 1980s. Under Wilder's leadership, Hunter, Lotus, and Stretch formed a new Pride and began plotting to complete the Pride's work. This included Wilder posing as Chamber to infiltrate Excelsior and hacking into Victor's operating system to spy on the Runaways. Their plans came to a head one evening when they lured the Runaways out to the suburbs, took control of Victor, and revealed that Nico and Chase had secretly kissed. During the ensuing chaos and infighting, the Pride was able to kidnap Molly Hayes. It was only through the return of Karolina and Xavin that the team was able to rescue Molly from being sacrificed to the Gibborim. Unfortunately, the Runaways paid a high price for Gert's life.; In the aftermath, Chase departed with Old Lace and the Abstract, the Pride disbanded, Wilder was returned to the 1980s with no memories of the future, and the Runaways buried Gert behind the Hollywood sign before returning to the Hostel to mourn. While Molly searched for answers about death, Nico and Victor secretly began hooking up, and Karolina attempted to ease Xavin's transition into life on Earth. Meanwhile, Chase abducted Lotus to force her to help him contact the Gibborim. After rescuing downtown Los Angeles from a giant monster, the Runaways were rejoined by Chase.; Although they attempted to stay out of the Superhero Civil War, S.H.I.E.L.D. forces began enforcing the Superhuman Registration Act in California. When the Young Avengers arrived to recruit the Runaways, a brawl soon broke out. The fighting was halted by a misfired spell and the arrival of Marvel Boy. Under the direction of the Warden of the Cube, Marvel Boy disposed of most of the teams and captured Wiccan, Hulkling, Karolina, and Xavin. It was only through the combined efforts of both teams that they were able to save their friends.; Sometime later, Chase began to finalize his plans to resurrect Gert by offering himself as a sacrifice. Using pages stolen from the Abstract, Chase deactivated Victor and stole the Staff of One. With Alex' anonymous help, Molly was able to help the team find Chase, reactivate Victor, and help the others save Chase from offering himself to the Gibborim. Unfortunately, when the group returned to the Hostel they found Iron Man and his Cape-Killers waiting for them.; ===Time Travelers===; The Runaways narrowly managed to escape from Iron Man and began to head east to New York City. In New York, they met with a former associate of their parents, Kingpin, who offered the team protection from the government if they stole an artifact for him. The team successfully stole the item but were confronted by the Punisher then a winged monster then an army of Kingpin's ninjas. The group only barely escaped when Chase plugged the Overdrive into the Leapfrog transporting them back to 1907.; While in the past, the group became involved in a conflict between the Street Arabs, the Upward Path, and the Sinners. In an effort to find a way home the team splits up. Victor and Spieler went to consult with Professor Duck and began to develop a romantic attraction. Meanwhile, Nico was abducted by the Upward Path where she met a distance ancestor, Witchbreaker. Chase and Xavin encountered younger versions of Dale and Stacey Yorkes, and Chase used the opportunity to steal their 4-D Time Portico to rescue Gert from the past before she was killed. Elsewhere, Karolina and Molly sought out Klara Prast, a Swiss immigrant and child-bride of an alcoholic and abusive man, in hopes of recruiting her to the Runaways to rescue her from her husband.; Events finally culminated with a large battle between the three factions of Wonders. During the chaos of the battle, the Runaways were able to regroup and escape with plans to bring both Klara and Spieler to the future with them. Unfortunately, before they could escape, they were confronted by the Yorkes. It was only through the timely arrival of Chase in the 4-D Time Portico sporting a new set of Fistigons that they were able to board the Leapfrog and return to the future except for Spieler who decided to remain in 1907.; Upon returning to present-day New York, the Runaways encountered the beginning of the Skrull invasion of Earth. Shocked by the events and wanting to protect his friends, Xavin immediately knocked out the others and attempted to bring them to safety. However, Xavin became distracted with Nico and Victor's regaining consciousness and witnessing Dorrek VIII being attacked by Skrull forces. Departing from the others, Xavin tried to help Wiccan and Speed save Hulklings life. While trying to evade X'iv and Chrell, Xavin and the others were joined by the rest of the Runaways. Together they defeated the Super-Skrulls allowing the Runaways to run away from the war in New York.; ===Return to L.A.===; When the team finally returned to California, they took up residence in the Malibu House, and Chase was forced to get a job to help support the others. Not long after settling in, the Runaways were attacked by the Majesdanian Light Brigade looking to punish Karolina for the crimes of her parents that led to the destruction of Majesdane. Against her wishes, Xavin (disguised as Karolina) took her place and agreed to be tried for her crimes. Shortly after losing Xavin, the Runaways faced off against Val Rhymin, Monk Theppie, and their army of plastic surgery "zombies".; After the X-Men relocated to the East Coast, they sent out a telepathic message to mutants around the globe inviting them to come to San Francisco. To stop the message from repeating in her head, Molly and the other Runaways visited Graymalkin Industries. The X-Men again tried to recruit Molly and she again declined.; Tragedy struck when an unmanned drone plane crashed into the Malibu house, demolishing the house, destroying the Leapfrog's body, and seemingly killing Old Lace. It was only through the intervention of Chase's Uncle Hunter that the Runaways were able to evade arrest by the U.S. Army. Hunter led the Runaways to a new fleet of Leapfrogs, and he and Victor were able to install the Leapfrog's "heart" into a new vessel. Hunter also offered to support the Runaways, but while en route to meet with Hunter, Chase was hit by a car. Chase did, however, make a full recovery.; When Daken discovered that an associate of the Pride was apparently the source of the Heat drugs, he went searching for, and found, the Runaways. Daken learned of Marcus Roston's falling out with the Pride, and was able to manipulate the Runaways into helping him take down Rouston.; When Chase began sensing Old Lace was still alive, a spell from Nico led the team to Avengers Academy and Reptil. With his help, Chase and the Runaways traveled to Dinosaur World and were reunited with Old Lace. Although there was some conflict over letting the kids remain unsupervised, the Runaways were able to leave on good terms with Dr. Pym and the Avengers Academy.; ===Murderworld===; Chase and Nico were among the sixteen superpowered teens captured and brought to Murderworld by Arcade where they were pitted against each other in a fight to the death. As a cover story, Arcade left a note from Nico and Chase stating they needed time to explore their relationship. Arcade also sent periodic texts to the Runaways though all these efforts did not convince Molly that they left of their own free will. During their absence, Victor joined briefly joined Pym's Avengers A.I. team.; Chase and Nico both survived Murderworld, but not without trauma. Chase gained the Darkhawk Amulet and briefly but inadvertently transformed into the new Darkhawk, and Nico actually died and was resurrected by the Staff of One. Along with the other survivors, Chase and Nico agreed to the pact of silence about what really happened on Murderworld.; Although Chase and Nico both returned from Murderworld, only Chase returned home to their friends while Nico remained distant. After Arcade leaked video footage of Murderworld online, Chase broke the silence pact and began to capitalize on the notoriety and began appearing on numerous talk shows. However, six months after Murderworld, Chase and Nico left again accompanied by the other Murderworld survivors to enter Bagalia in search of their friend Cullen. They also agreed to infiltrate Baron Zemo's Masters of Evil to bring them down from the inside. The Masters of Evil resurrected Alex Wilder to help train Nico in the dark arts. Death Locket betrayed the group and shot Chase. Fortunately, Nico healed him, but he remained in a coma for a few months. Nico also started hooking up with Alex. The Masters of Evil trapped the Avengers Underground and Alex joined them as part of his deal to get out of hell. Luckily, Cammi stopped them, then flew into space. The Runaways and the other Murderworld survivors got to relax at "some stupid lake somewhere."; ===Find Your Way Home===; Sometime later, Nico left the team in order to travel to Japan to reconnect with members of her family, but her reunion was cut short by the arrival of Antimatter, and thus she became press-ganged into joining A-Force. After Nico's departure, Molly was approached by her grandmother, and she left with her of her own accord. Victor became addicted to Vibranium, which affected his powers and accidentally caused him to murder Vin, a creation of Victor's "brother" Vision and Victor's "nephew" during a mission on behalf of the Avengers. He was murdered by Vision's wife Virginia in retaliation. Klara also left, being taken by state officials into foster care. Chase and Karolina were the only remaining members of the team together, staying at a Pride hideout in Malibu, but Karolina eventually left to go to college.; Using the time machine that belonged to Gert's parents, Chase went back in time in an attempt to save her from dying. Though he failed to stop her from getting hurt in the first place, Chase retrieved Gert's body and returned to the present. He arrived to Nico's house, and using the Staff of One, Nico managed to save her life. Furious after learning that her team had drifted apart, Gert rallied Nico and Chase to get the team together. Both Karolina and Molly initially declined, but the team finally reunited to help Molly escape from her grandmother, who had turned out to be a mad scientist. Victor returned in a way as well, since his dormant head had been delivered to Chase by Tony Stark, but he refrained from opening the package until after Gert returned. Chase managed to kick-start Victor's consciousness, but due to the traumatic experience leading to his death, Victor refused to be attached to a new robot body. The team made of their home the the underground main building of the Hostel, since Chase had discovered the building they previously utilized was the Hostel's guesthouse and not the Hostel itself. The Runaways also tried to get Klara back on the team, but she didn't want to leave her foster parents. During this time, Karolina's girlfriend, Julie Power, broke up with her, and Karolina started dating Nico not long afterwards. Gert and Victor also acted on their feelings for each other.; The Runaways' new normal was shaken up the unwelcomed return of Alex Wilder heralding the arrival of the Seed of the Gibborim, a trio of gods and the offsprings of the Gibborim who intended to make the Runaways follow through with the ritual the Pride had failed to perform. They forced the Runaways into house arrest and gave them a week to concede, leaving one of their own behind, Gib, to keep an eye on the teenagers. On the day of the deadline, Gib turned against his siblings, having become attached to the Runaways. The other two offspring of the Gibborim, Bo and Rim, where defeated when Gert rammed them with her parents' time machine, banishing them into the future. Despite his opposition against his kin, Gib was disheartened by the loss of his siblings, and the Runaways welcomed him into the team. Since his former team remained spiteful of him, Alex quietly went away. Following this misadventure, Victor decided to regrow his body with to better protect Gert.; ===The J-Team===; In hopes to find a sense of purpose, Karolina started dabbling in super-heroics, and was quickly joined by Nico. Karolina's exploits caught the attention of local hero Doc Justice, who welcomed the Runaways into his mansion when they were forced out of their underground home by an inadvertent public drainage work. Unaware that Doc Justice thrived off sensationalizing his superhero life, the Runaways minus Gert accepted to operate as crime-fighters under his wing, becoming a new incarnation of the hero's former squad, the J-Team.; The unusually high mortality rate of former members of the J-Team led Gert to become increasingly suspicious of Doc Justice, ultimately discovering that in the fifty years of his career, the hero routinely orchestrated the death of his young protégés to raise his own profile. Gert convinced Doc Justice's son and assistant, Matthew Caniglia, to interrupt a staged mission that was intended to end with Karolina's murder. Although this encounter resulted in Doc Justice's death at the fangs of Old Lace, Karolina's inner solar power was almost fatally depleted.; The team returned to the Hostel but their morale was battered by Doc Justice's betrayal, and the heroic Doombot friend of Victor moved in with the Runaways out of concern for the team's safety due to the fiasco. Gert decided to resume her high school studies, and was joined by Victor and Gib, the latter using his powers to manifest a human appearance. The team was further shaken up by the concurrent arrivals of a version of Gert from the future and the Light Brigade. Future Gert wanted to take Chase to her future for a fresh start to prevent his descent into villainy, and the Light Brigade, having been drawn to Earth by the depletion of Karolina's light and no longer holding a grudge against her, offered to take her away to treat her injury. After present Gert and Molly helped future Gert force Chase into the future with her, Karolina agreed to leave Earth with the Light Brigade with the promise to return.; ==The Runaways==; The founding members:; Alex Wilder - son of mafia crime bosses, and a master strategist.; Nico Minoru (formerly Sister Grimm) - daughter of dark wizards, armed with the mystical Staff of One.; Karolina Dean (formerly Lucy in the Sky) - daughter of alien invaders with solar energy-based powers.; Molly Hayes (formerly Bruiser or Princess Powerful) - daughter of telepathic mutants, and possesses the mutant powers of super-strength and invulnerability.; Chase Stein (formerly Talkback) - son of mad scientists, armed with his father's Fistigons and a naturally skilled pilot.; Gertrude "Gert" Yorkes (formerly Arsenic) - daughter of time-traveling criminals, possesses a telepathic link with her genetically-engineered dinosaur from the 87th century.; Old Lace - Gert's dinosaur.; Later members include:; Leapfrog - Ship equipped with advanced A.I.; Victor Mancha - cyborg son of Ultron equipped with electromagnetic abilities.; Xavin - a Skrull war-prince, son of invaders, and Super-Skrull-in-training with the powers to manipulate Cosmic elements, similar to the Fantastic Four.; Klara Prast - child-bride and Swiss immigrant from 1907 with the power to control vegetation.; Rufus the Cat - a genetically altered cat of Dr. Hayes.; Gib - the only remaining member of the Seed of the Gibborim who betrayed his siblings to protect the Runaways.; Prospective members include:; Topher - a vampire posing as the son of petty criminals.

+Rocketeers (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: Rocketeers (Earth-616)
+Full name: Rocketeers
+First appearance: Daredevil Vol 1 131
+Created by: Marv Wolfman; William Robert Brown
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Equipment: Rocket-Suits (combat armor)
+Weapons: Sonic-blasters/Sonic-Bursters
+Transportation: Rocket-Suits; formerly the Rocket-Car
+Notes: When created by Marv Wolfman, the Rocketeers were just supposed to be an example of the type of foes that super-heroes faced in between the adventures chronicled in their monthly comics. These first Rocketeers, led by a man named Wescott, were intended to be a normal group of costumed robbers who had clashed with and been defeated by Daredevil. They were known as the Rocketeers because of the Rocket-Car that they used in their crimes.; Wolfman himself retconned the Rocketeers when he revealed that they had really been agents working for Senator Stivak and that they had only committed those robberies in an attempt to draw out the new hero, the Torpedo, who was wearing the prototype costume that Stivak wanted. The Rocket-Suits that they later wore were revealed to have been designed by the same person who had designed the Torpedo suit but were not as powerful.; In the original backstory of the Torpedo suit, Senator Stivak was supposedly an international agent of a foreign power who had been planted in the United States years earlier in order to amass political power and weaken the country. His plan was supposedly to use multiple copies of the Torpedo suit designed by his unwitting nephew to outfit an army of super-soldiers who would then be used to conquer the country from within.; Senator Stivak was later revealed to also be Kligger, a leader of the criminal Corporation. in Incredible Hulk Vol 1 231.; The secret involvement of the Dire Wraiths was only revealed, as a retcon, in Rom Vol 1 21.
+History:
+===Origin===; Several years ago, members of the shape-changing alien race known as the Dire Wraiths who had secretly infiltrated human society decided to try to create combat suits that would make Wraithkind the equal of their enemies, the Spaceknights of Galador. These Wraiths allied themselves with Senator Eugene Stivak, a corrupt American politician who, as Kligger, was also one of the leaders of the criminal organization known as the Corporation, and provided him with the design for what would later be known as the Torpedo suit. The senator recruited his nephew, Yugoslavian scientist Michael Stivak, to develop the battlesuit, supposedly for national defense. However, after discovering his uncle's true intentions, the younger Stivak designed an inferior rocket-suit and gave the plans for it to his uncle. After his uncle acquired the plans for the original suit, Michael Stivak constructed a prototype which he used as the Torpedo to destroy any and all copies of those original plans. When Stivak was fatally injured after a building collapsed on him during a battle with Daredevil, a former professional football player turned insurance executive named Brock Jones tried to help him. Knowing it was too late for him, Stivak told Jones some of the background of the Torpedo suit and asked him to use the armored battlesuit to stop his family. Jones agreed and put on the suit to become the Torpedo.; ===First Team===; These Rocketeers were agents of the Corporation who were working for Senator Stivak. Wearing green costumes and using a Rocket-Car, they posed as a group of robbers in an attempt to attract the attention of the Torpedo. Unfortunately, they were spotted by Daredevil first and this led to a series of encounters that ended when Daredevil defeated them and turned them over to the police.; Stivak had a number of the inferior Rocket-Suits created and gave them to the Rocketeers to continue their attempt to draw out the Torpedo. This time, the plan succeeded and after several encounters they managed to capture the Torpedo and bring him to the senator's mansion in Westchester in order to remove the costume from him. However, the Torpedo was able to break free from his bonds but soon accidentally activated a destruct sequence. The Torpedo managed to escape from the mansion but Stivak and the Rocketeers were still inside when it exploded. Although Stivak is known to have survived, the fate of the Rocketeers has never been revealed.; The Dire Wraiths had allowed their unwitting human pawns to use the Rocket-Suits in order to test them in battle.; ===Second Team===; Some months later, the arrival of their arch-enemy Rom on Earth motivated the Dire Wraiths into renewing their attempt to acquire the Torpedo suit. After discovering the Torpedo's secret identity as Brock Jones, a small team of Wraiths wearing Rocket-Suits was sent to attack the Jones home. However, Jones heard them coming and was able to don the Torpedo armor in time to prevent them from entering his home. Fighting to protect his family, the Torpedo struck them with all the power of his costume's jet-punch, unintentionally inflicting fatal injuries. The dead Rocketeers and their costumes dissolved into ash, and Jones decided that he had to take his family and move to a safer location without leaving any trail for the Rocketeers to follow. Coincidentally, the town where Jones chose to relocate his family was Clairton, West Virginia, where Rom had been based since arriving on Earth. On his first night in Clairton, Jones (as the Torpedo) encountered Rom and, after a battle caused by a misunderstanding, the two of them talked. During their conversation, Jones realized that Senator Stivak had been working for the Dire Wraiths and that the Torpedo suit was based on a Wraith design.; A few days later, Wraiths working at the Delmar Insurance offices in New York City discovered where Jones was hiding from them. The local leader, the Dire Wraith who had replaced company president Byron Benjamin, ordered a number of his subordinates to don Rocket-Suits and go to Clairton as Rocketeers to kill Brock Jones and retrieve the Torpedo suit.; Early the following morning, these Wraith Rocketeers arrived in Clairton and began their search. Within minutes, the Torpedo and Rom both flew to meet them, surprising the Wraiths who had not been told to expect the Spaceknight. Although outnumbering their foes at least thirteen-to-two, the Rocketeers were unable to overcome their foes and they were all either killed or banished to Limbo. Learning of the complete failure of the mission he had authorized, "Benjamin" committed suicide in order to escape paying the price that he knew his masters who exact from him.; ===Third Team===; Some months later, the female Dire Wraiths on Earth, unhappy with the lack of progress that their brothers had made in their planned conquest of the planet, slew all the male Wraiths and took over. However, at least five male Science Wraiths survived in hiding in Florida, close to the Kennedy Space Center where their leader, Dr. Woodrow Cather, worked as the Cape's highest ranking civilian scientist. Hoping to escape from the Sisterhood, these Wraith began sabotaging rival projects on the base, sometimes using circuitry stolen from those projects in their effort to build a working star-drive which they secretly installed in the experimental Ion-drive rocket that was Cather's project. Eventually, as the Sisterhood closed in on them, the male Wraiths abandoned covert sabotage that could be mistaken for accidents and four of them donned Rocket-Suits in order to attack the base as Rocketeers. However, they were opposed by a team of Avengers who had been called in to investigate the possible sabotage, and the human heroes swiftly defeated the four Rocketeers. For reasons of her own, one of the female Wraiths intervened and sent the mystical Mists of the Dark Nebula to disable the Avengers long enough for the Rocketeers to escape. Within a day, all eight of the Wraiths in the area were dead: the four Wraith who had been the Rocketeers were killed by the Sisterhood, Cather killed himself in space to avoid falling into the Sisterhood's hands, and the three female Wraiths who had been attacking the males all perished in battle with the Avengers.; ===Fourth Team===; At some point, five human technicians who had worked at the lab where the original Torpedo and Rocketeer armors had been constructed decided to build some Rocket-Suits for themselves. Knowing of the Torpedo armor and being unable to recreate it, they instead created a tracking device that would be able to locate the Torpedo suit once it was activated. After years of waiting, that suit was finally reactivated when Michael "Mike" Jeffries found the suit in storage in the attic of his family's home and, unaware of what it truly was, gave it to his friend Michiko "Mickey" Musashi to use as a Halloween costume to wear to a party at Long Island University. After tracking the armor to the party, the five Rocketeers entered the campus ballroom and used their scanner to locate where the armor was. Once that was done, they opened fire on Mike and Mickey. When Mickey was blown back and out through a window, they assumed that the fact Mike had survived meant that he was the one wearing the armor and demanded that he remove his costume. Seconds later, they discovere how wrong they had been when Mickey flew back into the ballroom and swiftly defeated all five of them. Once in custody, the five revealed who they were, how they had learned about the Torpedo and Rocketeer suits, and how they had tracked the Torpedo armor.

+History:
+The Ruling Council was a body that governed over the planet Scadam and its population of Scadamites. It included open-minded Durgan the Philosopher, traditionalist Obispo and apparently young philosopher Tuskar in a minor role. The Council met in a Council Chamber in Scadam.; When the pirate armada of warships called Black Fleet approached the planet Scadam, ravaging worlds in their path, the Council gathered to look for a solution. The Scadamites happened to have a pacifist culture, having rejected warfare, weaponry and military generations ago; so the Council refused to take any protective action, instead resigning to their doom. Dissenting, Durgan tried to inspire the Scadamites to fight because they were in an exceptional situation; but he was found to be heretic and expelled from the council. After this, Durgan went underground, the Council no longer aware of his activities (They wouldn't have approved anyway).; The Council met again when the Fleet attacked another planet, several parsecs nearer Scadam; and the greatest Scadamite thinkers looked for a solution to their problem, while Obispo insisted in their policy. Tuskar, who had been Durgan's apprentice, decided to look independently for his missing master. While going sleuth, Tuskar entered a forbidden museum; there he videoconferenced with Durgan. Durgan told Tuskar that he had sent an agent, the Chief Examiner, to another planet to collect superpowers he was to use in a champion. Tuskar found the idea abhorrent and threatened to report to the Council; but Durgan convinced Tuskar to join him instead based on the fact that Tuskar had also broken the Council's rules during his investigation.; Scadam was flattened by the Black Fleet attack, its population almost extinguished. It is reasonable to assume that the Ruling Council was dismantled.

+In the timeline in which Gertrude Yorkes was killed by Morgan Le Fay, the Runaways had split up after her death.; Burdened by knowledge that she was unable to use her full power to save Gert, as well her father and sister, Nico Minoru had left on a journey to study magic without telling anyone, including Karolina Dean with whom she was in a relationship. Alex started a company called Wilder Innovators, with his father now working for him. Karolina went to UCLA where she started a new relationship with Julie, the two of them eventually living together. Only Molly and Chase remained living in the Hostel, with Molly looking after the Old Lace and Chase secluding himself in his room, where he worked on Time Travel so that he could save Gert in the past.; On the third anniversary of Gert's death, a version of Alex from the future of 2028 arrived with a mission to kill his former friends, followed by future Chase who wanted to stop him. After Nico got the group, including the present Alex together, they confronted the older Alex, but he managed to escape even further in time, to the day before they knew of their parents' human sacrifices.; Leaving the present Chase behind, the team followed future Alex into the past to Atlas Academy, where he Nico easily subdued him with her magic. They considered restraining their 2021 version of Alex to prevent the 2028 future Alex from coming to pass, but eventually declined to punish him for the crimes he did not yet commit. 2021 Alex made a commitment not to become his evil self and Chase ordered 2021 Alex to return back to his own time to prevent him from learning too much about his own future. Chase then revealed that his reason for creating the time machine was to save Gert's life and when the rest of the team expressed his desire to join him, 2028 Alex noted that it would change their entire timelines after that point, effectively erasing their present selves from existence. The team decided to save Gert regardless, and with limited amount of jumps on their devices left, 2028 Chase had to drag 2028 Alex along.; The team traveled to the time of their confrontation with Morgan in 2018, where Chase took Gert's place at closing the circle of salt that trapped Morgan at the cost of his life. Since the team prevented Gert's death, their future was changed, with the Runaways from both 2028 and 2021 futures being erased from existence.

+History:
+The Robos were a subterranean race of amalgamated robots created by Alkhema using technology derived from Ultron and mental engram recordings stolen from various Avengers and their enemies.; Their programming and personalities were built from combinations of the brain patterns of Wonder Man, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Wasp, Goliath (Henry Pym), and Grim Reaper. Because of this, the Robos regarded those individuals as their “Progenitors.”; The Robos established a hidden robotic civilization beneath ancient Thebes—modern Luxor—which they called Robotopia.; When the Avengers discovered the underground entrance to Robotopia, they initially clashed with the Robos. However, once the robots recognized Vision, Wasp, and Yellowjacket as Progenitors, they ceased hostilities and escorted the heroes into their city.; The Robos later found themselves caught in a massive multi-sided conflict when Alkhema appeared and reasserted control over them. The battle escalated further when Ultron arrived, turning the confrontation into a chaotic war involving the Avengers, the Robos, Alkhema’s War Toys, the Bio-Synthezoids, and Alkhema and Ultron themselves.; When Hawkeye destroyed Alkhema with an Antarctic Vibranium arrow, she triggered the destruction of her underground base and many of her creations, including the Robos.

However, Logan's heightened senses enabled him to locate them, and he used the goggles taken from one of the attackers to make them visible. After Captain America joined him, the Rodents deactivated their camouflage and redirected the suits' excess energy into their weapons, increasing their firepower.; Despite their training and equipment, the Rodents were unable to defeat Logan and Captain America. Several were subdued during the ensuing battle, while others were defeated after the group was forced onto the main stage. Their operation ultimately failed when Rascal was knocked unconscious by Captain America.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Savage Land, Antarctica
+Notes: The Savage Land Mutates were nicknamed the "Beast Brood" by Black Panther in Avengers Vol 1 105.
+History:
+Early in his supervillain career, the mutant Magneto created a headquarters in the Savage Land, a tropical jungle existing within Antarctica. Finding mutations that occurred easily in this land due to high levels of radiation, Magneto assembled various natives from tribes all over the Savage Land and, calling himself "the Creator," subjected them to experiments that greatly enhanced their physiology, creating the Savage Land Mutates.; When the superhero team of mutants, the X-Men, were exploring the Savage Land, the Mutates battled the X-Men and the Savage Land protector known as Ka-Zar. Revealing the Creator as Magneto, the X-Men were captured until Jean Grey ultimately destroyed Magneto's headquarters and machines, burying Magneto under the debris and reverting the mutates back to their non-superhuman state.; For reasons that remain unknown, the Mutates reverted to their superhuman forms and captured scientists hoping to create other Mutates. The superhero team of Avengers with their Asgardian ally, Sif, searched for the scientists and defeated the Mutates, who were remanded to the custody of the nearest legal authorities, in Chile.; Later, Magneto and the Mutate known as Piper captured several of the X-Men and the Avengers, before escaping capture when the Avenger Vision turned the tables on them.; The Angel and his ally, Spider-Man, later traveled to the Savage Land, searching for Karl Lykos, also known as the villain Sauron. They, along with Ka-Zar, encountered and were captured by some of the Savage Land Mutates (Gaza, Barbarus, Vertigo, Amphibius and Brainchild, who had learned to use Magneto's machines for his own purposes.) Lycos managed to rescue his friends, but doing so freed his evil alter-ego of Sauron, who joined with Savage Land denizen Zaladane in leading the Mutates. The X-Men arrived to defeat the Mutates and free their friends, reverting Sauron to Lykos and the Mutates to their non-superhuman state once more.; Apparently, the effect of the mutation-inducing technology that gave the Savage Land Mutates their powers causes them to eventually regain their superhuman forms should they lose them, since the Mutates, with their leader, Zaladane, encountered and fought the villain known as the High Evolutionary.; Afterwards, Zaladane led the Mutates in kidnapping scientists, raiding Antarctic stations, and plundering Chilean cities, engaging in war-like acts across the Savage Land. Later, she made the Mutates kidnap the X-Man Polaris and succeeded in stealing her powers, which led the X-Men to battle the Mutates to rescue her.; Soon after, Zaladane tried to merge with the south magnetic pole to gain even more power. Investigating, Magneto, the X-Man, Rogue, Ka-Zar, and the espionage organization SHIELD encountered the Mutates and an army of prisoners led by the Mutate, Worm. Magneto succeeded in killing Zaladane, and the heroes destroyed the Mutates' headquarters.; Later, the X-Men, Wolverine, Rogue, and Jubilee, traveled to the Savage Land in order to find traces of Magneto. Instead, they discovered that Sauron had taken charge of the Savage Land Mutates again, as well as uniting the variant Savage Land tribes. The two Mutates and X-Men fought, but after triumphing, the heroes chose not to reverse Sauron to Karl Lykos.; Sauron, however, eventually needed more and more energy, and sought the X-Man Havok, since it was touching Havok that created Sauron in the first place. The Mutates Worm and Whiteout kidnapped Havok, which led other X-Men, Cyclops, Jean Grey, and Polaris, to follow. After a series of battles, Phoenix was finally able to defeat their foes by reducing Sauron to a mindless creature and escaping the Savage Land.; ...; Recently, the team faced the New Mutants.

+History:
+Shortly after becoming the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony Stark formed a special, four-man team dubbed 'Alpha Team', and produced suits of highly advanced armor based on his own Iron Man suit. The Alpha Team was primarily used as a special-forces counter-terrorism unit, their first mission being stopping a terrorist cell which had taken a group of opera patrons hostage at the Sydney Opera House and armed with several canisters of Venox gas. The team was successful in eliminating each member of the cell, but the last member activated one of the gas bombs, and Iron man was forced to grab it, taking it to a Stark Industries owned vessel a short distance off the coast and detonating it safely in the ship's decompression chamber. While his participation in the operation was supposed to be limited to observation, Dum-Dum Dugan was upset by his personal involvement, saying that his presence undermined the team's autonomy. Eventually, however, Dugan came to accept Stark's methods.; Alpha Team was next involved in an incident in Rumekistan involving the detonation of a number of "fingernail nukes" created by onetime business partner of Stark's, Nasim Rahimov. Gomez was injured in the explosion of the first nuke, though his armor saved his life he was put out of commission. The team was later attacked by a group of hired mercenaries led by Paladin, who, using a stun gun modified by Rahimov, was able to temporarily disable Stark's armor, leaving the remaining members of Alpha team to fend off the thugs on their own, which they were able (mostly) to do for a short time. After Stark reactivated his armor and easily disposed of Paladin, Coletti and Carstairs were sent to investigate the Overkill Mind, which was attacking the Helicarrier at the time. The Overkill Mind was able to overload the Alpha's armor, killing both of them, and then invaded its computer systems, using the now lifeless soldiers to fend off Dugan's Flying Commandoes. Upon his arrival, Stark triggered his own override, shutting both armors down and having Dugan's team collect the bodies for burial. Stark was able to defeat the Overkill Mind and stop Rahimov, with Farrell aiding in evacuating civilians from the remaining nuke sites.; While it was never confirmed, with half its number dead and Stark fired for Norman Osborn, Alpha Team is presumed to have been effectively disbanded.

Together the pair battled the dinosaur men but eventually A.I.M. surrounded them and they were ordered to surrender.; Diamondback disguised as an A.I.M. agent, rescued them by causing disruption in the Saur-Lords' ranks.

He initially refused, but ultimately accepted.; The first day of training, Spider-Man realized he wasn't the only young superhero being trained by S.H.I.E.L.D. and sadly left.

+Notes: The S-Men are named after their founder's surname Shmidt which is the Red Skull's real surname. Reflecting erroneous assumption commonly made that the "X"-men are named after Xavier
+Trivia: With the possible exception of Dancing Water, it seems that all of the S-Men have their powers derived from magic or some form of super-science. Their leader The Red Skull combined Xavier's brain with his own in a similar manner to the U-Men, though through the expertise of his partner Arnim Zola.
+History:
+===Origin===; The S-Men were formed by the resurrected Red Skull as an antithesis to Professor X's X-Men with a mission totally opposite to Xavier's. Red Skull recruited servants and enhanced them using mad science and magical artifacts, creating the S-Men, with the main objective to protect humanity by destroying mutantkind.; Their first recorded mission was the retrieval of Professor X's corpse from his mausoleum so Red Skull would fuse part of his brain with his in order to gain powerful telepathic powers. They detonated an explosion at the mausoleum to temporarily conceal the theft.; Their second was precipitating the Red Riot where close to a hundred people lost their lives either at the hands of the S-Men or the rioting caused by their leader's nascent telepathy.; In the months that followed they would try to recruit Jet Black to their cause and would be sent out into the world by the Red Skull on their third recorded mission to capture mutants, Inhumans, and members of the Avengers Unity Division.; ===March to AXIS===; Most of the S-Men were killed by Magneto when he infiltrated Genosha soon after the Red Skull turned it into a mutant concentration camp. The only surviving members were Honest John, the Dangerous Jinn, and the nameless monk.

+History:
+While working as a fashion model, Betsy Braddock was recruited to S.T.R.I.K.E.'s Psi Division, a specialized task force of telepaths.; When the crimelord Vixen secretly took over S.T.R.I.K.E., she sent Slaymaster after the members of Psi Division to prevent them from revealing here plans. Slaymaster killed Kevin Mulhearn on stage during a performance, traumatizing Alison Double, who had a mindlock with Mulhearn at the time, and alerting the remaining agents to their danger. Fearing for her and her friends' safety, Betsy reached out to her estranged twin brother Brian Braddock, who she knew was secretly Captain Britain. Unfortunately, before Captain Britain could intervene, Slaymaster was able to kill Denis Rush, Andy Hornby, Leah Mickleson, Stuart Hattrick, Vicki Reppion, and Avril Davis with Jazzlers, penetrative devices capable of disrupting nerve pulses. The surviving Psi Division agents Alison, Betsy, and Tom Lennox temporarily moved into Braddock Manor for safety.; While staying at Braddock Manor, the house was invaded by the Special Executive, who were sent to collect Captain Britain as a defense witness in the trial of Saturnyne.; When Prime Minister James Jaspers was putting paranormal humans into internment camps, the remaining Psi Division agents were forced to go into hiding. Eventually Jaspers' agents, the Beetles, found them in their secret London hideout. Tom sent the others ahead while he stayed to face the Beetles, and was murdered by them while he was in telepathic contact with Betsy. Alison later died in an automobile accident, leaving Betsy Braddock as the sole survivor of the S.T.R.I.K.E. Psi Division for a time.; Some time later, outraged by the U.K.'s actions towards Krakoa and mutants, Pete Wisdom began plotting ways to strike back and came across the S.T.R.I.K.E. Psi Division, which had been disbanded before he began working for S.T.R.I.K.E.'s successor, Black Air. According to Egg, no one was aware of the mutants who had been part of S.T.R.I.K.E. despite their Cerebro backfiles existing. Thanks to Wisdom's research, The Five were able to resurrect Tom Lennox, Vicki Reppion, Alison Double, and Kevin Mulhearn. Working with Wisdom, the newly reformed S.T.R.I.K.E. Psi Division planned to make the U.K. regret their decisions regarding mutants.

The Council, now composed entirely of LMDs, controlled S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra, A.I.M. and the Oil Corporation Roxxon, with the Deltite himself as the new Supreme Hydra.; The Council led Project: Delta, a secret project to replace S.H.I.E.L.D.'s top agents with advanced LMD duplicates enhanced with Nick Fury's Infinity Formula, giving them immortality. These LMD were created by Roxxon's Encoders, who worshipped the Deltite as a god.; After Nick Fury and some agents loyal to him killed all the Deltites, including the Executive Board, S.H.I.E.L.D. was shut down by the United Nations.; After some time, a new S.H.I.E.L.D., under the direct control of Nick Fury and the United Nations Security Council was created. At the same time, Baron Wolfgang von Strucker was resurrected thanks to his Death Spore Virus. Hydra then managed to brainwash the original S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, who were replaced by the Deltites and kept in stasis, into working for Hydra.; Three agents, Jasper Sitwell, James Woo and Sidney Levine, escaped from their stasis pod and created a new Council from which they directed the brainwashed agents like Clay Quartermain and Laura Brown. After Fury defeated the reborn Strucker, the agents were freed from Hydra's psychic control and they rejoined S.H.I.E.L.D.

Mistaking the citizenry as Simpson's hostages, Rogers demanded that the village tell him where Simpson was.

+Trivia: Although the captured criminals expected to be fred by the Satánicas, it is unclear whether this was ever done.; The Satánicas are not related to Satánica, another female enemy of el Hombre Araña in #137 of the same series.
+History:
+The Satánicas are a criminal gang made up of three women disguised as cats: The leader, called Satania or Satánica; Yira, an excellent fighter; and Ledoy, whose weapon of choice was the whip. Thou lifelike, Yira and Ledoy were robots that could be short-circuited and destroyed; but Satania claimed that, even after their destruction, they were still alive - probably meaning that they could be re-built or that they were remotely operated.; In their first public appearance in New York City, a Satánica (Ledoy or Yira) stole the blueprints of an interplanetary ship that the US were building to sell it to a Communist government for profit, and escaped through the window, being towed by a helicopter. During the escape, she ridiculed superhero el Hombre Araña.; Ambitiously, the Satánicas met with several criminal gang leaders in an attempt to unify their mobs under her leadership. Physically harassed by the Satánicas, the men agreed. The Satánicas promised to get any captured crook out of jail, then started a crime wave on the city. They used helicopters to escape with the loot, which Satania hid in a secret compartment. The media deduced that all the criminals in the city have joined together. The police arrested several criminals, who surrendered because they were sure the Satánicas would soon get them out of jail. Clarín editor J. Jonah Jameson demanded that the police look after el Hombre Araña for possible involvement, but is dismissed. Jameson then published a series of articles (written by his reporter Robertson saying that el Hombre Araña was the protector of Satánicas.; During a bank truck heist by the Satánicas and their men, the gangster took two witnesses hostage. Satania, present at the heist, orders to batter the male witness, Peter Parker (secretly el Hombre Araña) so they are convinced to "forget" what they saw - and causing the opposite effect, as Parker heard the criminals mentioning a meeting at La Colina Roja. The female witness, Peter's girlfriend Gwen Stacy, was worried about las Satánicas, as the police cannot find who they were and even el Hombre Araña had been defeated by them.; As el Hombre Araña, Peter went to La Colina Roja. where he was ambushed by las Satánicas: Ledoy entangled him with her whip, and then Satania ordered them to "take care" of the prisoner. However, el Hombre Araña freed himself with a show of strength. He then overpowered and tied Yira with his webs. Ledoy tried to help Yira, but el Hombre Araña strangled her with his webs. He then tied Satania, and accidentally opened a secret wall with are the loot.; Before el Hombre Araña could unmask the villainesses, the two male gang leaders enter. Satania ordered them to kill el Hombre Araña. They shoot at him, but he covered himself. Satania released herself and turns off the light; but el Hombre Araña's powers allow him to move around better than his enemies, and he turned the light on again. El Hombre Araña defeated the men and tied them up; but Satania escaped. Before chasing her, el Hombre Araña phones the police Comandante because he had arrested two gang leaders and two Satánicas, plus found the loot. El Hombre Araña then decides to question the Satánicas about their leader - but the Satánicas exploded, revealing they were short-circuited robots. Satania left a note saying that she would return, and that the two other Satánicas were still alive. Satania's final note admitted that el Hombre Araña has defeated her, and then contradictorily claimed that she was invincible.

+Trivia: The Savage Avengers were created as a parting gift for long-time Marvel artist Mike Deodato Jr.. Five months before his exclusivity contract with Marvel Comics expired, he was asked for a list of his favorite characters, and they became the team's first roster.
+History:
+===The Defilement of All Things===; When the Avengers battled the Goddess of the Night Nyx, the Hyborian Age berserker Conan emerged in present day to assist them in their fight. Following their triumph over Nyx, Conan did no return, relocating to the Savage Land. Ironically, his deadly nemesis Kulan Gath had also been residing in the Savage Land, acquiring power by cannibalizing sorcerers for knowledge. In order to bring chaos to Earth, Kulan Gath wished to revive the Jhoatun Lau, the Marrow God. Through his disciple, the Sickle Priest, as well as agents of the Hand and of an Ancient Egyptian cult, Gath kidnapped artists and warriors as sacrificial lambs for his plans. One of his victims was related to the lethal mutant warrior Wolverine, catching his attention. Wolverine teamed up with Conan to save the victims, which included the necromancer Brother Voodoo. Another target was the Punisher, whose family's graves were desecrated to lure him. The Punisher was intercepted by the deadly ninja Elektra, who investigated the Hand's involvement in the crisis.; Kulan Gath proved to be more powerful than anticipated, managing to summon the Marrow God despite his opponents' efforts. The monstrosity was unleashed on Shanghai, where the lethal protector Venom joined the other antiheroes in their battle, having been attracted by a symbiote Conan had merged with to cure a lethal wound. The Marrow God was destroyed by the assassins, who avenged those who had been slain. However, Kulan Gath vanished with his followers. Voodoo decided to follow him, but not before asking Elektra to contact the Sorcerer Supreme Doctor Strange to inform him about the threat Gath posed. Wolverine, Elektra, and Venom were teleported away from the Savage Land. However, the Punisher and Conan chose to journey back by themselves. They parted ways in South America, with Conan spending time in Brazil, where he soon identified Gath's evil influence in the local crime. The superspy Black Widow and the son of satan Hellstorm investigated the issue as well, temporarily joining Conan in battle.; Being in possession of an amulet from Gath, Conan was kidnapped by Doctor Doom to Latveria. Doctor Doom and Conan were approached by Doctor Strange, who had been updated by Elektra. Eventually, Doom identified the amulet had been booby trapped by Kulan Gath, who emerged before his three enemies. Following a difficult battle, Gath was momentarily fended off. However, Brother Boodoo succumbed to Gath, being consumed by the dark creature Shuma-Gorath. It was revealed that Kulan Gath planned to consume Shuma-Gorath's power. Strange then prepared himself for another encounter with the dark magician. Conan battled victims Gath infected with Shuma-Gorath's essence in Mexico, where he was assisted by Venom. Meanwhile, Strange investigated Kulan Gath's past, realizing Conan might play a crucial role in his defeat. This prompted Doctor Strange and Elektra to formally assemble a team formed by those who had faced Kulan Gath recently. To round up his team, he recruited the mutant sorceress Magik, who had faced Gath in the past. After resurrecting Voodoo, Strange and Elektra finally recruited Conan to join their "Savage Avengers."; Doctor Strange communed with Shuma-Gorath to keep him aware of Kulan Gath's attack. Part of the team was assigned of combatting Gath's acolytes and end the corruption brought by the use of Shuma-Gorath's essence, executing the Sickle Priest in the process. As such, Gath lost his ability to feast on Shuma-Gorath. Another group was to retrieve the Eye of Power from the dragon Sadurang. Magik recruited the unstoppable Juggernaut and the wielder of the Ebony Blade Black Knight for the quest. Magik trapped Sadurang in Limbo, securing the Eye of Power for Strange. Fully prepared, the savage assembly of champions waited for Gath to emerge again. Afterwards, Conan adapted himself to the modern world, meeting other super heroes and engaging in adventures. Most prominently, he crossed paths with the Spirit of Vengeance Ghost Rider, who also hunted Kulan Gath.; Kulan Gath returned and revived the Sickle Priest to strike against his enemies. Conan returned to Doctor Strange to stop the malignant wizard. With no other option, Strange slayed Shuma-Gorath using a dagger laced with the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak. However, Gath had already been empowered to the point of unleashing his army of followers upon Earth to conquer it. In a possible outcome, Kulan Gath conquered Earth. Decades in the future, Conan was approached in the devastated world by Kang the Conqueror, who sent Conan back in time to duel Kulan Gath with no success. In the Savage Land, Kulan Gath tracked Doctor Strange, Doctor Doom, and Kang in retaliation. Present-day Conan was able to join the fight, buying enough time for Kang to assemble the Savage Avengers. By stabbing Gath with the mystical dagger that had killed Shuma-Gorath, he was infected by the extradimensional monster. The Savage Avengers celebrated their victory in Castle Doom.; ===All-New, All-Different===; A new Savage Avengers team was assembled when a Deathlok tried to kill Conan because of his presence in XXI century, meanwhile, the Cult of Set Conan was fighting triggered the Madbomb they had stolen, but some heroes resulted immune to that psychic attack and they all came along to stop the enemies, they're Weapon H, Black Knight, Agent Anti-Venom, Elektra (with her new Daredevil alias), Cloak and Dagger. During the resulting fight, Conan damaged Deathlok's time-travelling technology, causing the creation of a temporal gateway that brought them all to the Hyborian Age. There they had to fight for their lives against the wild tribes of that time, but their greatest battle came when, while battling Deathlok, Conan was kidnapped and later killed by the Hyborian Cult of Set in order to bring Set himself on Earth. The Savage Avengers attacked the Cult all together, with Deathlok (aka Miles Morales) as their new ally, the cyborg was indeed "cured" from his program by Elektra using the magic of the Hand. After Dagger's powers brought Conan back to life, her and Cloak tied Set with light and darness chains, allowing Conant to destroy the structure of the mystical gateway from where Set had came out while Deathlok tried to use his technology to send Set away in the timestream; their plan was successfull and while the Savage Avengers disappeared inside the gateway, Conan remained in his age, remembering that he used to be an Avenger.; However, the team didn't wake up in present time, but in year 2099, where they discovered that the arm Deathlok had lost fighting Conan in 2022 was used by Alchemax to develop Formula-D, that was used to turn dead human bodies into Deathloks, in addition to that, they learnt that Ultron had been rebulit to fight the cyborgs, but he had rebelled and, after gaining control over Deathloks, he had led them to a worldwide war against humanity. In that dark time, they found a new ally in Punisher 2099 (who initially saw them as enemies because of Miles) and they started hiding inside Valhalla; using Deathlok's technology they're also able to travel inside the Cyberspace to steal Ultron's database from which they learnt the story before their arrival, but they also found a way to leave that time in order to avoid the dark events they'd caused. Their plan was to break into Hellrock prison, when they had to break Doom free, but they're almost defeated by the guardian of the prison, D.E.A.T.H.D.O.K., who was eventually defeated by Deathlok-Morales. Once they left the prison, with their newest member Doom 2099, they flew to Latveria on a Quinjet, in fact there the Time-Array Gauntlet was hidden and only Doom known where that was; during the flight, a Deathlok soldier hit the plane, causing them to crash-land, but they fought all together against both Deathloks and Doombots (such as Ultimo) to reach their aim. However, they discovered Ultron had forestalled them and he had got the Gauntlet, so they tried to get that back, but Ultron easily killed them all by himself, Deathlok and Punisher where the sole survivors.; The two warriors tried to enter Alchemax Tower, but they're suddenly attacked by the Savage Avengers, who had been all turned into monsterous machines who were going to easily kill them if Doom hadn't resurfaced. The iron monarch fought savagely against the former heroes, but they were too much for even Doctor Doom, so Deathlok sent his mind inside the Cyberspace where he found a part of the Avengers' memories blocked there, in particular, those were all the bad thoughts they had about themselves, but Deathlok was able to encourage them in not giving up, eventually placing their real mind over Ultron's one, causing them to return Alchemax labs, sabotating Formula-D technology to "recreate" them. Meanwhile, after the Punisher sacrifaced himself to destroy as much Deathloks was possible, Miles faced Ultron himself, who's going to open a portal over the moment Alchemax discovered the secrets of the cyborg's arm, but the Savage Avengers returned and joined the fight alongside Doom and Ultron's most dangerous prisoners: the Savage Avengers 2099. Ultron was then patially isolated into the Cyberspace by the Black Knight, but not before he sent his ultimate soldier against them: a "resurrected" Punisher; he almost defeated Doom if Deathlok hadn't forced him to remind him his past, causing Gallows to destroy the Gauntlet on purpose. However, the portal self-sustained and the heroic Deathlok understood that the only way to close that was to destroy his past arm, but Ultron attacked him; in a last attempt to fix the timeline, Deathlok used his Web-Shooters to get his arm from the past and then destroyed that, erasing that timeline from existence.; The Savage Avengers eventually returned their correct time, where they decided to stay together one last time against Fin Fang Foom. Meanwhile, Miles was saved by the responsible of his transformation into a Deathlok and narrator of Savage Avengers' adventures, the Watcher, who turned him back human and sent him back in his home reality.

+Samurai Squad was the brainchild of Iron Man and Captain America, a Japanese offshoot of the Avengers intended to help combat the global rise in crime and supervillain activity. Recruiting Hida Haruka, a Japanese counterpart to Spider-Man known as Sakura Spider, Captain America arranged for Deadpool to travel to Tokyo to join the team, though Iron Man had to bribe him into doing so. The two got off to a rocky start, Deadpool annoying Sakura Spider with his zany antics, but worked together to foil a bank robbery. Loki attempted to recruit Deadpool to a team of supervillains he was putting together, but Deadpool refused and scared him off by revealing he'd contacted the other Avengers -- though only Captain America arrived.; Tasked by Captain America with recruiting Neiro Aratabi, a teenaged idol singer who was the host of a symbiote nicknamed Kage, Deadpool foiled Loki's attempt to brainwash her and Neiro agreed to join the team after meeting Bruce Banner. Bruce informed them that Loki was after a device that the Avengers had confiscated due to its ability to create portals to other universes, which Loki intended to use to create an army of supervillains from across the Multiverse, and tasked Samurai Squad with protecting it. Loki sent a brainwashed squadron of Hydra soldiers and a clone of Thanos to claim the device, but Thanos was unaffected by Loki's mind control and attacked the Samurai Squad out of personal hatred towards Deadpool, easily defeating the Hulk and Neiro.

+Species / origin: Multiversal variants of Sabretooth led by the Sabretooth of Earth-616
+Reality: Multiverse
+Base of operations: Station Five
+Transportation: Formerly Station Five
+History:
+===Origins===; Graydon Creed traveled the Multiverse to hunt down variants of his father, Sabretooth. Graydon killed many variants, whose heads he kept as mounted trophies wile converting their headless bodies into cyborgs, although he kept three variants - Sabretooth-12, Sabretooth-203 and Sabretooth-1912 - imprisoned in his space station Station Five in his native Earth-616. Graydon eventually captured and began torturing his father until the other three Sabretooths freed themselves and attacked him, eventually using his own interdimensional device to send him through a portal to another universe. Now with the Sabretooth cyborgs and Station Five at his disposal, Sabretooth-616 led the other Sabretooths as his own personal army.; ===Sabretooth War===; The Sabretooth Army traveled the Multiverse to hone their skills by hunting down variants of Sabretooth-616's enemies and recruited other Sabretooths, including Sabretooth-33441. In hopes of continuing his long standing tradition of hurting his archnemesis Wolverine on his birthday, Sabretooth and his army returned to Earth-616 and planned to mount an attack on Krakoa to kill the Quiet Council for imprisoning him in the Pit, only to find it deserted and under siege by Orchis due to the events of the third Hellfire Gala. Sabretooth's attention would thus switch to Wolverine's new X-Force team, with Wolverine protégé Kid Omega being ambushed and having his body cannibalized by the Sabreteeth after he investigated the presence of new mutants on Krakoa. Sabretooth and his army used the telepathic energy from Kid Omega's still alive head to track down X-Force's new arctic base and incapacitated X-Force members Sage and Black Tom Cassidy with it. Sabretooth then encountered Wolverine's son Fang and slaughtered and dismembered him, using his remains to spell out "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" for Wolverine. Wolverine attacked Sabretooth in a berserk rage, but the cyborgs defeated him. After mocking Wolverine, Sabretooth restrained him with adamantium tentacles and decided to torment him further by murdering the inhabitants inside the Greenhouse. Sabretooth and his army laid waste to the Greenhouse and massacred many mutants so that Wolverine could witness the carnage; during the onslaught "Pretty Boy" Sabretooth was killed by Wolverine's daughter, also named Wolverine. Sage and Black Tom recovered and activated the Greenhouse's defense mechanisms, which took the form of powerful vines that killed many of the cyborgs by impaling or crushing them to death. Sabretooth and the remnants of the army were forced to retreat. Despite the army succeeding in killing many of Sabretooth's targets and managing to abduct Laura, Savage and Camo blamed Sabretooth for the deaths of Pretty Boy and Cap and attempted to usurp him back at Station Five, but were unsuccessful in beating him due to his adamantium skeleton, which they previously helped him recover from another universe. Although the two reluctantly agreed to follow Sabretooth's leadership again, they secretly planned to usurp him and planned to recover their "nephew" Graydon from the dimension they trapped him in. When Cap was revealed to have survived from his injuries, he was captured and interrogated by X-Force, with Phoebe Cuckoo using her telepathy to discover the history and goals of the Sabretooth Army. A psonic image of Sabretooth created as a failsafe within Cap's mind attempted to kill Phoebe before should uncover anything else, forcing Domino to kill Cap. When Kid Omega's consciousness sent out a telepathic plea for help from Station Five, Wolverine flew the Bluebird to confront the Army at their base. While Sabretooth was preoccupied on Krakoa, Camo and Savage used the opportunity to extract Graydon from the dimension he was trapped in. Graydon agreed to help them due to their mutual hatred of Sabretooth. After Laura escaped her prison, killing Savage and several other cyborgs before sending a distress signal to X-Force X-Force, Camo, Graydon and the remaining army confronted her. Laura disabled Station Five's cloaking mechanism before jumping out, causing the Stark Sentinels patrolling Krakoa to detect and attack the Army. During the aerial assault Graydon used his cybernetic implants to reprogram one of the Sentinels and piloted it to destroy the other Sentinels attacking Station Five while Camo piloted the station. After the assault Camo compared Graydon's obsession with Sabretooth to Sabretooth's own obsession with Wolverine, prompting an insulted Graydon to destroy Station Five with his Sentinel, killing Camo and the remaining Army.

+History:
+When Agatha Harkness was put on trial by her mother, Evanora, and their coven, the Salemites, she was able to escape by draining them of their magic and life essences. However, in an act of mercy, Agatha spared the young children of the Salemites. As these seven daughters grew up, they became a feral hive-minded coven bent on revenge called the Salem Seven.; After Agatha was freed from Scarlet Witch's spell and still left powerless, Rio tried to kill her. However, Agatha was able to convince her to delay their confrontation until she regained her powers. Rio agreed, but couldn't promise that the Salem Seven would do the same. In a desperate attempt to regain her lost powers, Agatha assembled a coven with the promise to walk the Witches' Road while her real plan was to steal their magic by provoking them into attacking her. However, when the coven actually did open a door to the Witches' Road, they had to hastily use the door to escape the imminent attack by the Salem Seven.; When "Mrs. Hart" died during the first trial of the Witches' Road, the coven summoned a replace Green Witch. However, they accidentally left a door open, which the Salem Seven used to enter the Witches' Road and attack them. Using flying brooms and the third trial to escape, Agatha's coven narrowly avoided a direct attack from the Salem Seven.; The Seven continued to hunt Agatha and her coven, but Lilia was able to trap them in the fourth trial. Sacrificing herself to ensure the others could escape, Lilia was able to impale the Salem Seven (and herself) with the swords in the ceiling by reversing the tower.

+History:
+Following the Venom War's conclusion, the United States Government established an agency called S.C.A.R. to determine what to do with the symbiotes left on Earth over the years. Concerned that they would be exterminated, Agent Anti-Venom lobbied to have the symbiotes returned to space or sent to planets where they would be accepted and joined S.C.A.R. on the condition that Dylan Brock be left alone, arresting the Toxin and Sleeper symbiotes despite them having been born on Earth and allied with humanity. He kept Toxin some company at the North Brother Island facility by giving it enough food to survive without a hos, while Sleeper barely talked to it or anyone else. S.C.A.R. field agents *Heater, Slice, and Ripcord attempted to publicly apprehend the All-New Venom, but it escaped.; Flash's colleagues at S.C.A.R. considered him a symbiote sympathizer and ordered him to prove his loyalty by capturing All-New Venom, threatening to go after Dylan if he refused. Discovering that Mary Jane was the new host of the Venom symbiote, Flash had a heart-to-heart with Mary Jane and his old symbiote where they conspired to stage a fight that Agent Anti-Venom would lose. However, S.C.A.R. agent Jill Carson, who blamed the symbiotes for the death of her brother and was secretly conspiring with Doctor Octopus to exterminate them, attempted to kill him anyway.; Rick Jones witnessed Venom fighting the entirety of S.C.A.R. and seeing that all of its operatives weren't present in their facility, Sleeper took Rick over remotely and made its way to the facility on North Brother Island. Unfortunately, upon breaking inside the facility, Rick and Sleeper were caught off guard by S.C.A.R.'s newest member, Doctor Octopus. Doc Ock separated Sleeper from Rick whom he had restrained, and announced to him his intention to dissect his body. Venom was able to overcome S.C.A.R. and flee, and feeling that Sleeper was in danger, Mary Jane and the symbiote decided to break inside the S.C.A.R. facility to free the symbiotes imprisoned there. Venom battled Octavius, before the rest of the organization arrived. She broke Sleeper's piece free which re-bonded to Rick, allowing him to use the symbiote's pheromones to knock out their enemies. Venom and Rick proceeded to free Toxin and Sleeper's main body, and joined by Agent Anti-Venom, they defeated S.C.A.R.; The fiasco led to Ripcord being sacked from her job, and her position given to Octavius who outfitted Heater and Slice with robotic spider arms and treated them as if they were his personal minions. During another public attempt to apprehend All-New Venom and the rogue symbiotes, Octavius use a remote override on the robotic arms of his minions, controlling them into battle against their will. This did not help him win the battle, and Octavius ended up being fired from S.C.A.R. as well. Thompson was then put in charge of S.C.A.R.

+History:
+The Secret Avengers were founded by Captain America in response to the Superhuman Registration Act, set up precisely for those who wanted to fight against Iron Man's initiative for superhuman registration.; They fought against the registration act by helping other heroes and villains escape the country or go into hiding. The team went through several roster changes during the conflict, with its biggest change happening after the death of Bill Foster, as several heroes left the group (seeing it as a mistake) and many more joined the group and viewing Foster's death as proof of the Registration force's evil.; The Secret Avengers' final battle was an assault on the super-prison 42 where they freed and were joined by many of the heroes imprisoned there before traveling to New York City for a final battle that ended with Captain America realizing that the normal people on the street wanted the heroes to register. Captain America asked the Secret Avengers to stand down, and the team dissolved, with many of the former members gaining amnesty for their actions by joining the 50-State Initiative. Some members still felt the need to rebel against the order and struck out on their own, though several key members of the Secret Avengers stayed together and took up the simple name of the Avengers (they saw themselves as the true bearer of the name, unlike the government-backed Avengers team).

+Trivia: Unlike Spider-Man's Iron Spider outfit, the Scarlet Spiders are equipped with four "waldoes" whereas Spider-Man only had three.
+History:
+The Scarlet Spiders were three clones of the seemingly-deceased Initiative recruit, MVP. After his death via training accident, Dr. Blitzschlag found his genome too valuable to simply throw away and with reluctant permission from Yellowjacket proceeded to clone him. The clones were named Michael, Van, and Patrick. To accelerate their development, telemetry education was fed into their brains by Taskmaster to have the martial arts prowess and physical muscle memory and moves of Spider-Man. All three of them wore the 'Iron Spider' Stark armor which Parker formerly wore pre-Civil War and during the event. Originally, they identified themselves as "Red Team" on the field. They took down the Sinister Syndicate consisting of Shocker, Boomerang, and Hydro-Man.; When Blitzschlag was visiting New York City after the events of World War Hulk, he was attacked by a group of Vulturions, who stole the plans for a gamma bomb he was carrying. Coming to his aid, the Scarlet Spiders pursued the Vulturions until being attacked by Peter Parker, angry over Stark's use of other Spider-Men. Taking one of the members out, he was eventually convinced by a second to help them against the Vulturions. Arriving in time to help Van, the two Scarlet Spiders utilized a cloaking technology built into their suits to make them appear to be differently-costumed versions of Spider-Man, distracting the newest Vulturions while Peter Parker took down the original member, Honcho. Thankful for his help, the Scarlet Spiders went against orders, and instead of capturing Parker, they made it appear as if he had been a member of the team, throwing doubt on whether he was ever actually Spider-Man.; A formerly deceased clone of MVP acquired a top secret weapon known as the Tactigon and began referring to himself as KIA (Killed In Action). Insane, and greatly influenced by the alien technology, he began systematically hunting down all members of the Initiative whom he felt was responsible for his condition. During the attack, he decapitated one of the three Scarlet Spiders, Van, after they unmasked themselves in an attempt to calm KIA. The surviving Scarlet Spiders, Michael and Patrick, make their way to Bulls Gap, Tennessee to aid in the capture of KIA.; After the defeat of KIA, the surviving Scarlet Spiders, along with the MVP clone who replaced the original MVP to fool his parents, and the real MVP's father, joined with Justice's New Warriors as a Counter Initiative/Counter Force of underground registered heroes.; Following the Skrull invasion, Counter Force were made wanted criminals when Norman Osborn began taking control of the 50-State Initiative. The team showed up at Camp Hammond, having retaken the name New Warriors, to battle a rampaging clone of Thor, Ragnarok, but with the cost of losing Scarlet Spider Michael. In the aftermath of the battle, Patrick, the last surviving Scarlet Spider, publicly unmasked himself, revealing to the media that the Initiative had secretly cloned MVP.

+Notes: Some consider Scarlet Knight Colin's attack to have been a suicide bombing, but Colin's speech would seem to indicate that he and others plan to perform more bombings.; The Scarlet Knight character has not been seen in any subsequent issues of the New Excalibur series, and with its cancellation Colin's fate may never be revealed.
+History:
+When the Mutant X-Gene catalyzed in Colin Hardy, his newly-gained powers of flight somehow passed on to the other members of his family.; As part of the Royal Air Force, the squadron became part of its search and rescue personnel, with the mother and youngsters handling peacetime jobs, and the Dad and the older siblings handling combat operations.; The Knights became famous for their annual Farnborough Air Show, taking passengers and performing Red Arrow style air maneuver displays.; During the events of M-Day, in a bright flash of light, the family lost their powers mid-flight with a full compliment of passengers. "They never had a prayer", it was said. Squadron Leader Colin was, seemingly, the only survivor. Colin's new-found hatred of Humankind over the death and depowerment of mutants all over the world, for which he assumed humans were responsible, led him to join with fellow depowered mutants and strike back by bombing the Main Line Railway Terminus in what was declared to be a "taste of what is to come."

Antigenic Kaiju destroyed things which were about to destroy the entire planet, and Pathogenic Kaiju existed like an infection, destroying things for no reason. The Science Squad's main duties were to evacuate citizens wherever Kaiju were appearing and direct one Kaiju at another before they destroyed too much of the planet in the process of finding each other.; With the help of the Exiles, and Trask's Red Ronin, they were able to pit Fin Fang Foom against Krakoa in the Pacific Ocean, saving downtown Tokyo.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Lighthouse, Earth Orbit; Quincarrier
+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+Transportation: Quincarrier
+History:
+Run the mission. Don't get seen. Save the world.; ===Formation & Heroic Age===; When Steve Rogers took over Norman Osborn's role as top cop, he chose not to continue H.A.M.M.E.R. nor to reestablish S.H.I.E.L.D. Instead, he decided to put the world's security into the hands of a few Avengers sub-teams. One of these teams became the Secret Avengers, and he took direct leadership of it with Sharon Carter assisting him with tactical operations. The purpose of this team was to covertly clean up the messes left by the Osborn administration. To this end, Steve personally recruited a team that would allow him to carry out surgical strikes in any given circumstance. This included experienced covert operators like Black Widow, Moon Knight and Ant-Man; a scientist in Beast; a one-man army in War Machine; a powerful magical warrior called the Valkyrie in Brunnhilde; and the cosmos' top cop Nova.; Steve's first go on a mission with the team to a mining facility of Roxxon Energy Corporation established on Mars. Some reports said that Roxxon had acquired the Serpent Crown, so Rogers decide to go to Mars with Black Widow and Valkyrie to find the artifact, which Beast later discovered that was not the real Serpent Crown, but a similar object. Rogers had also dispatched Nova to investigate on Mars and find more information, but he lost communication with him. The rest of the team went to Mars to find him and discovered he was being controlled by the entity of another artifact similar to the Serpent Crown. With the help of a being named Archon, who was charged to protect the world against the entity, they freed Nova.; Then, the Secret Avengers were confronted by Archon who wanted to kill Nova to be sure he would not be possessed by the artifact again. Nova left the team after Archon decide to let him live. They were also confronted by the Shadow Council, and for beat him, they have to deal with a Nick Fury imposter working for the Shadow Council. The real Fury confirmed that the imposter was an advanced Life Model Decoy modified by Jake Fury. He was going to destroy the LMD, but the Life-Model Decoy was rescued by the Shadow Council and was named Max. Also operating in the "Shadow Council" were Aloysius Thorndrake and hero John Steele.; ===Hulk===; The planet named K'ai entered the Solar System and was on a collision course with Earth. The Secret Avengers wanted Hulk to join them in a mission to intercept the planet as he was the only person on Earth who knew the planet and its culture. Hulk accepted it initially but when Skaar warned him against it, he refused to help the Avengers. The Secret Avengers asked Rick Jones if he would join the team who also turned him down. When the Secret Avengers left, the Hulk learned from Skaar that he has another son, Hiro-Kala, who is the king of K'ai leading this "attack" on Earth.; Hulk began a rampage in Cape Canaveral, trashing the spacecraft and equipment that was being prepared to intercept K'ai. The Secret Avengers arrived on the scene to battle the Hulk. After the team managed to subdue the behemoth, things only got worse when She-Hulk, Red She-Hulk, Skaar, A-Bomb and Korg arrived to aid Hulk in battle with the Avengers.; As a last ditch resort, Captain America threatened to have Black Widow and Moon Knight blast Hulk and his allies with a weapon that Iron Man had made as a last-ditch effort to counter future Hulk problems after World War Hulk, that would transport them all to the Negative Zone. The Hulk reverted to Bruce Banner and again refused Captain America's offer to join him in this mission, and instead he and his allies took control of the mission and left to deal with K'ai and Hiro-Kala by themselves.; ===Fear Itself===; The Secret Avengers were trying to help defend the nation during Fear Itself. While half of the Secret Avengers including Ant-Man, Beast, War Machine and the Prince of Orphans battled against Sin and her robots, the other half consisting of Commander Steve Rogers, Moon Knight, Black Widow and Valkyrie rushed to stop a person leaking government secrets to the public under Captain America's previous alias as the The Captain. Captain America finally locates The Captain just in time to stop him from uploading a video confession but he was too late to save several undercover assets and informants that were murdered by the organizations and syndicates they were infiltrating. As The Captain declares Steve a hypocrite for now doing the government's bidding, something that he previously rebelled against, as well as forming the Secret Avengers who only answer to him, Captain America gives him a beat-down. The Captain is arrested soon afterwards.; After the Captain is arrested, Beast is called away shortly to meet with the army because a member of the United States Congress who has locked himself in the House of Representatives wanted to meet him and refuses to evacuate the building despite that the building won't stand much longer. Leonard Gary, the revealed member of the United States Congress is a civil rights champion and old friend of Beast's who was revealed to be apparently responsible for making sure Senator Kelly's anti-mutant bills never made it. Beast meets with Gary to try to talk sense into him and get him to flee to safety. Gary refuses; showing Beast that when the evacuation came up, the House was still in session and he had the floor pushing a bill he'd been working on for eight years. The session was never officially called, so Gary's proposed health care bill was still officially on the table, so for that, Gary insisted upon staying. In the end, Beast leaves Gary behind to make his speech while he hacks into local news cameras to make sure the speech is given broad media coverage. Later in the speech, the building is heavily damaged and Gary is sadly presumably killed.; As the remaining Secret Avengers continued to try and defend Washington from Sin's blitzkrieg, one of the mystical war hammers from the Serpent crashed down in China ripping open the entrance to the Eighth City with its blazing trail of power. Prince of Orphans senses it immediately (as he is one of the Immortal Weapons) and he senses that hordes of demons flee out from the gate now opened by the hammer. Immediately, Prince of Orphans and War Machine leave the battlefield to investigate the matter in China, where they suddenly discover the villain Absorbing Man has arrived there to claim the weapon for himself. Then, Prince of Orphans and War Machine, allied with the rest of the Immortal Weapons including Iron Fist, fought against Absorbing Man and his wife Titania, both powered by two of the hammers. Meanwhile, the Black Widow began a quest personally to track down a group of journalists working for a muckraking tabloid who are wanting to post online about the death of the Widow's lover Bucky. She breaks into the offices, resulting is a lengthy meditation on the different meanings of the death of a superhero and the death of a normal person. The reporters agree not to publish the story as the public need to look up to the heroes instead of facing even superhuman's mortality.; ===New members===; After Steve Rogers became Captain America again, the roster changed drastically. The marksman Hawkeye was the new leader, along with the addition of the inter-dimensional hero Captain Britain, the symbiotic soldier Venom and the original android Human Torch. Meanwhile, Moon Knight, War Machine, and Sharon Carter left the team. Also Giant-Man helped to build the team's new base, the space station known as the Lighthouse. In a mission against the Descendants (a group of robots formed by the Father), Ant-Man seemingly died when saving a young boy, recently discovered to be a Descendant. In the end of the mission Human Torch was heavily damaged, but Ant-Man reappeared.; ===Avengers vs. X-Men===; When the Phoenix Force was determined to be heading to Earth, a team of Avengers was assembled with Beast, Captain Britain, Valkyrie, Protector, War Machine, Vision, Ms. Marvel and Thor to go on a mission with the intent of stopping it before it reached the planet.; In the end, the Avengers couldn't destroy the Phoenix, but prevent it from destroying Hala, the homeworld of the Kree with the help of the, revived using energy of the Phoenix Force, Captain Marvel.; ===The Rise of the Descendants===; After preventing the Shadow Council form using a three-part crown to fully unleash the mind-controlling Abyss, the Secret Avengers were attacked by the Descendants, who wanted to recover the Descendant child the heroes rescued, with the help of Ant-Man, revealed to be a Life-Model Decoy working for Father. Meanwhile, Hawkeye, Beast and Captain Universe traveled to another universe to retrieve the Orb of Necromancy, the object Father used to create the Descendants.; The Descendants, with the addition of the Human Torch, reprogrammed to serve them, launched a massive attack on the main cities of the world, starting an invasion to take it and launched a nano-mist, which slowly started turning every human into a Descendant.; The Secret Avengers fought them, and the Human Torch, who Captain Britain made come into his senses, managed to destroy the Orb of Necromancy, which killed every single one of the Descendants of the High-Breed and eliminated the nano-mist from any human. Before dying, the Father told Captain Britain he still felt the presence of another Descendant who didn't die.; In the aftermath, the Secret Avengers reunited with Captain America to tell him what happened. Later, Hawkeye decided to disassemble the black ops unit.

+The past history of the Savage Land Mutates of Earth-21993 mirrors that of his Earth-616 counterpart up until the point where Charles Xavier was going to be used as a weapon by the Skrulls to attack the Shi'ar empire. Xavier would escape this fate and return to Earth where he would be assassinated by Cable, sparking an explosion of attacks instigated by many of the X-Men's enemies.; The Mutates would take advantage of Xavier's death to attempt to expand their empire beyond the Savage Land, clashing with the military. They would change their focus to attacking the X-Men directly at the ruins of the X-Mansion along with the Fenris and the Hellfire Club. During the fight, Zaladane would absorb the life force of Polaris, and thanks to Gaza a member of the Hellfire Club would be able to land a kill shot on Nightcrawler, before the X-Men were forced to escape.; Later, when the US government would launch the Sentinels in response to Magneto, one of their targets would be the Savage Land Mutates. The Sentinels would kill Zaladane, Barbarus, Brain Child, Gaza, while capturing Amphibius. Amphibius would later be rescued from captivity by Wolverine and recruited into a new team of X-Men.

+History:
+The Crime-Master created his own super-villain team named the Savage Six by assembling Death Adder, the Human Fly, Jack O'Lantern, and Megatak upon offering them protection from both the law and the Kingpin. Venom was planning to take out the Crime-Master, only to be stopped by Eddie Brock. After a fight with Venom, Jack O'Lantern discovered Eddie Brock webbed up as the Crime-Master forcefully bonded Eddie Brock to the Toxin symbiote. The Savage Six targeted the people Venom cared about, including his family and Betty Brant.; Jack O'Lantern, in his human guise, went first and targeted Betty, only to end up fighting Venom. During the fight, Megatak assisted Jack O'Lantern and punched Venom's phone before he could make a call to the Avengers for help. While getting Betty away from Jack O'Lantern and Megatak, Venom was attacked by Toxin, who was in full control of Eddie Brock. Venom managed to use a sonic version of a pepper spray to immobilize Toxin before getting away.; The Savage Six soon began to target Betty's family, so Betty and Venom left to go warn them. They arrived at the home of Betty's mother, where they found the Human Fly about to eat her. Megatak had also been monitoring the phone lines when it came to the loved ones of Flash Thompson. Jack O'Lantern then targeted Jessie Thompson and ended up fighting Venom. Venom grabbed Jack O'Lantern's gun and fired on him before Jack O'Lantern spewed acid on him, causing Venom to cool down in the fountain. Although Venom managed to get Jessie to safety, Toxin managed to capture Betty Brant while the Human Fly was eating the leftovers of what was supposedly Betty's mother.; Venom continued to look for Betty and ended up killing Death Adder after ripping the Human Fly's wings off to learn where the Crime-Master was located. When Betty was brought before the Crime-Master, she was shocked when he revealed himself to be her brother, Bennett. When Venom arrived at the Crime-Master's hideout, he defeated Megatak and severely burned Toxin. Bennett almost killed Venom with a sonic pistol and a flamethrower, but was shot and killed by Betty. When Venom began to make a comment on this, Betty stated that her brother had "died a long time ago."

+Notes: The crow saying "Nevermore" is a reference to Edgar Allan Poe's 1845 poem "The Raven," in which a raven repeats that word several times.
+History:
+The villain Scarecrow traveled around with two crows which were almost always shitting around over him and saying "caw." The Scarecrow gloated to his crows; apparently they served to no other function. Not that this was useless: this way, the Scarecrow can explain his schemes out loud for us, the audience.; The Scarecrow tricked the Offengers and the X-Persons to fight each other, and their battle escalated when other superheroes joined. He intended to take his chance and "seize power" somehow, but Sore and Bulk moved during their fight and smashed him. The crows dodged because they could fight, but the Scarecrow was defeated. Once the heroes had moved, the crows moved over their master and resumed defecating.; They were then joined by the Behinder, who was looking for Secret Wars III. Many heroes and the badly-injured Scarecrow expelled him, and one of the crows uttered "Nevermore"

+Notes: The retelling of the Human Torch's origin in Marvel Mystery Comics Vol 1 92 seems to imply that the Scientists' Guild was also called the Academy of Science. However, because both are mentioned in Saga of the Original Human Torch, the organizations are assumed to be different ones.; Marvel Mystery Handbook 70th Anniversary Special Vol 1 1 is full of errors regarding information on the Three Xs. The story is clearly placed in New York City, but it mistakenly says that it takes place in Baltimore, Carol Carson is referred to as "Carl Carson", and it mistakenly says that "Carl" was the one kidnapped by the Green Terror when the story has Maisie Leeds be the woman who was kidnapped, which then incorrectly labels Maisie as Ted Barry's fiancé instead of Carol.
+History:
+=== Origins ===; 1,500 years ago in Great Britain, a guild of warlocks and magic users plotted to overthrow King Arthur and give power back to the common people. To achieve their goals, the guild harnessed the power of the spirit of Eternity to create the Eternity Mask, a mystical mask that makes its wearer the equal of their opponent. The Black Knight was dispatched to locate the guild's hideout, where he encountered their champion, who was wearing the mask. After three straight days of fighting, the Black Knight finally killed his adversary. The guild retreated, taking the mask with them. The mask would survive into modern times, passing through many hands and influencing key events in human history.; ===The 19th Century===; The guild was still active in the 19th century and apparently looking for the Eternity Mask, but on his deathbed the Masked Raider told Dr. Matt Masters not to let them get a hold of it.; ===The Modern Era===; ====The Human Torch====; By the late 1930s, the guild was known as the Scientists' Guild and it consisted of three members: Dr. Carlo Zota, Dr. Jerome Hamilton, and Dr. Maris Morlack. The Guild came to regard themselves as representing the next stage of humanity and were determined to shape or create the next generation of mankind.; The three scientists had a meeting with Professor Phineas Horton where he revealed his creation, the synthezoid named the Human Torch, at the 1939 World's Fair. The Guild thought that this new invention was too dangerous and that it should be destroyed. This demand, along with public outcry and a Presidential order, convinced Professor Horton to bury the Torch in a concrete block. Later, Professor Horton himself was accepted as a member of the Scientists' Guild.; ====The Three Xs====; Under the alias the Three Xs, the Guild also acted as private investigators specializing in cases of a super-scientific nature. In their only known case, they were hired to find the mysterious kidnapper known as the Green Terror. While examining the clues left behind during the most recent kidnapping, the Three Xs were attacked by the Green Terror's men. This did not stop them from learning that the Green Terror's men were stationed aboard a ship that was about to leave New York Harbor. Rushing to the scene, they were captured. However, they met with the Green Terror and learned that he kidnapped his young victims in order to drain their blood so that he could maintain his youth.; The Three Xs broke free and easily defeated the Green Terror and his men in a fight, taking control of the ship and returning it to New York so that the Green Terror could face punishment for his crimes.; ====The Thunderer====; In 1940 the Scientists' Guild, under their Three Xs alias, acquired the Eternity Mask from its then-current owner Leslie Lenrow, a private detective also known as the Ferret. Using the mask and an eldritch tome of arcane magic, the Guild launched Project: Thunderer, and turned radio operator Jerry Carstairs into a superhero known as the Thunderer in 1941. The creation of the Thunderer was secretly witnessed by Steve Rogers prior to him being injected with the Super-Soldier Serum and then bathed in the Vita-Ray Chamber.; At a science conference Zota, Hamilton, and Morlak met geneticist Wladyslav Shinski, who would later join the Guild and administer longevity treatments to his comrades, which kept them youthful for decades.; In 1946, the Guild funded Professor Horton's creation of Adam II, which Horton hoped would be an improvement on the Human Torch. In exchange for funding, the Guild was allowed to supply their own programming. The Guild's ideas of the next stage of mankind caused Adam II to develop feelings of superiority towards the human race. The rogue synthezoid was eventually defeated by the All-Winners Squad, but not before he killed Bill Nasland, the second Captain America. Disgusted by their recklessness, the Thunderer quit the Scientists' Guild and took the Eternity Mask with him, vowing to take them down if they ever came after him or the mask. The Guild eventually caught up with the Thunderer sometime prior to 1956 and killed him, taking the mask and leaving his body in a cave.; ====Strange New World====; By 1958 the Guild's experiments with the Eternity Mask were unsuccessful, as it did not make any of them each other's equal. Dr. Hamilton suggested it was because they wished to rule the world, but Dr. Zota disagreed, as their goal was not to rule it, but to save it. Dr. Shinski reasoned that the world should be controlled, but by a race of perfect humans. Shinski stated that they, too, would have to evolve. He then unveiled a sketch of a human-sized cocoon and declared that the Scientists' Guild was dead. From that point on, they would be known as the Enclave.; ====The Masked Raider II====; The Three Xs were re-formed years later by Jimmy Woo (who had been investigating the Eternity Mask along with Bobby Da Costa and the Agents of Atlas), the Blue Marvel, and the recently-returned Night Thrasher. They began investigating a man going around dressed as the Masked Raider who, they believed, was the mask's current owner. They also joined a bunch of super-heroes in solving the murder of Kree general Bel-Dann.

There they rescued Jessica Drew from captivity after defeating the Intelligencia, but the mission ended in disaster when Ultron seized control of a dormant Spaceknight body and returned to existence. Despite the Avengers' efforts, Iron Man concluded that Ultron's resurrection marked the beginning of Earth's inevitable fall.

+Trivia: The Vulture once offered the Black Cat a spot in the Savage Six.
+History:
+===Origins===; The members of the Savage Six were some of the numerous animal-themed criminals captured by the mercenaries the Taskmaster and the Black Ant on behalf of Kraven the Hunter in preparation for the "Great Hunt," an event in which he forced his captives to be hunted down by Hunterbots in Central Park. These Hunterbots were controlled by a cadre of wealthy would-be hunters tricked by Kraven into participating, unaware of the true danger behind his plan. When Kraven and his accomplice, Arcade, presented this idea of their benefactors, they teased the kind of prey they would be hunting down by introducing six of the participating villains, the Vulture, the Scorpion, the Tarantula, Stegron the Dinosaur Man, the Cobra, and the Rhino, as the Savage Six.; During the tournament, Kraven confronted Spider-Man and had a change of heart. He decided to shut down the operation and free his prisoners, who were subsequently apprehended by the authorities. The members of the Savage Six convened in the same convoy, and the Vulture suggested that they formally join forces as the Savage Six.; ===In Hollywood===; When Mysterio posed as the film director Cage McKnight to make a self-biopic, the Savage Six were outraged that their personas were used in this film without their permission and decided to crash the production. They attacked the production crew, but Mysterio used his illusions for him and the crew to escape them. Despite the crew's effort to avoid discovery by the Savage Six, the Six captured an actor named Charlie who used to work for the film and told them the crew's current location.; After production was finished, the Six arrived to destroy the film for good, but were confronted by actress Mary Jane Watson. They did quick work with her, but then the film crew, which now also included Master Matrix, Screwball, and H.E.R.B.I.E., came to her aid and together managed to fend off the villains.

Years ago, they took over a settlement of displaced Atlanteans, displacing them yet again. They had been pillaging the dark corners of the sea, while Thakorr's grandson, King Namor, turned a blind eye to their abdicating of duty and pillaging.; When Namor came in person to their settlement, seeking them out to have them rejoin Atlantis, Karris insulted Namor and one of his warriors drew Namor's blood with his sword. Namor used his newly acquired hydrokinesis to expose the entire settlement to the air and leave all the Sea Blades temporarily gasping for water. Witnessing Namor's new power and being told of Namor's plan, Karris and the Sea Blades accompanied him back to Atlantis.; Namor and Machan guided the Sea Blades to Atlantis where they accompanied him when he faced the imprisoned Captain America (Steve Rogers) who had came to try and plead Namor to stop his hostilities with the surface world.; At the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, at the Atlantean Coliseum of the Bull Shark Matador, Namor was faced by his people blaming him for his failures, notably the Phoenix fiasco. Along with other Atlantean factions (including the Defenders of the Deep, the OctoPriests, and the Black Tide), the Sea Blades challenged Namor to force him out of the Coral Throne of Atlantis.

However, when Doctor Doom became the Sorcerer Supreme, he considered this task unbecoming of him, so he gave Spider-Man eight of the Reeds of Raggadorr (one for each of the Scions) and appointed him the new champion.; Most of the Scions perished at the hands of one of their own, Callix, who was empowered by the Blight and wished to prove to their father he was better than them. Cyttorak did nothing to prevent the death of his children, leaving only Callix and Cyra alive. Callix would be defeated by Spider-Man, who was imbued with Cyra's essence and became a Juggernaut, and would be imprisoned under Cyttorak's Throne.

+History:
+The Savage Tigers were the New York City branch of the Hong Kong–based White Lotus Society, serving as its primary foothold in the United States. As part of the Society’s expansion into America, the Tigers established themselves through protection rackets, organized crime activities, and an illegal immigration operation that smuggled people from Hong Kong into the country in exchange for large sums of money. Their growing influence brought them into direct conflict with the Royal Cobras, New York’s dominant Vietnamese gang. By aggressively expanding their territory and operations, the Tigers began pushing the Cobras out of key areas, escalating tensions into open gang warfare.The Tigers also came into possession of a massive 30-foot golden Buddha statue, stolen from a temple in Laos by Chinese troops and later transported to the United States. The statue was stored in a dockside warehouse owned by the Pearl of Shadowed Enlightenment and became a central point of contention among various criminal factions. Their activities drew the attention of the Punisher when several Tigers attempted to rob the Golden Buddha restaurant. The robbery resulted in multiple deaths and the kidnapping of the restaurant’s cook, who had fallen behind on payments tied to their smuggling racket. In response, the Punisher sought to dismantle the organization and formed a temporary alliance with the Royal Cobras, led by Rupert Duc. The conflict culminated in a violent assault on the dock warehouse where the statue was being held. During the ensuing firefight, the Savage Tigers engaged both the Royal Cobras and the Seven Gates triad, who had also sought control of the statue. The battle ended in heavy casualties for the Tigers, including the deaths of several key members.

If necessary, Strange would also teleport the team to the location they were needed. At times there seems to be a subtle pattern among those who choose to serve, such as War Machine and Thunderstrike, Ant-Man and Iceman, etc.; ===Doctor Druid===; Strange later forced Doctor Druid to take over for him while he was dealing with Salome and the War of the Seven Spheres. Druid and Shadowoman were asked to protect the Moebius Stone from evil forces. The Stone ended up empowering Cadaver, and the three became a regular team of sorts, based out of Doctor Druid's Sanctum in Boston.; However, Druid grew tired of leading the group. Summoning the demon Slorioth, he faked his death and the team disbanded, although Cadaver, Shadowoman, and Joshua Pryce agreed to help each other if needed.

+Transportation: Sentinel Squad Armors, Mk VIII Sentinels, Crazy Train, War Machine
+History:
+===Origins===; Valerie Cooper gave a proposal for a new type of Sentinel that would be piloted. She cited that the government can not rely on the Fantastic Four or the Avengers, much less the X-Men during a crisis and thus needed its own sanctioned superhero team. The new models were developed by Tony Stark. James Rhodes was selected as Direct Command Officer and instructor. Various candidates were selected to be part of this new Sentinel Squad.; They were pushed hard, with initial 'training simulations' against the likes of Galactus and the Silver Surfer. Their initial mission was to protect a senator targeted by Hydra due to his anti-terror legislation. They apprehended agents, who then triggered explosives and unleashed the Growing Man. Slayton was injured, losing both legs, and the mission failed, despite the fact they saved the senator.; The teams were sent to the Savage Land to stop a plot by the Savage Land Mutates altering dinosaurs. Most of the squads were lost due to attacking head-on. Lexington's team managed to escape, also freeing Rhodes, destroying the mutated base and annihilating the altered dinosaurs.; The team then went to Ecuador to exterminate the Sentinels created by Cassandra Nova, which had annihilated a mutant town. They succeeded, suffering a single casualty, though in reality the pilot simply defected, faking his death with help of his mates.; ===M-Day & Decimation===; The O*N*E was formally activated by the President due to the events of "M-Day". The squad was launched and headed to the Xavier Institute to monitor the remaining mutants.; They got into a brief quarrel with the X-Men, which mistook them with true sentinels, but stopped after Emma Frost revealed the units were piloted. The two groups then joined forces when the mutant hating fanatical group known as the Sapien League attacked the Mansion. Since then, the squad was stationed outside of the Xavier Institute and monitored the status of the mutants living there.; When Vulcan attacked the X-Men, he destroyed a Sentinel, along with killing Nathaniel Briggs. During Apocalypse's attack, two prototype Sentinels known as Crazy Train and War Machine were activated after Apocalypse destroyed the other sentinels.; When William Stryker went on his crusade against the X-Men students in an effort to kill them all, he used an arm of Nimrod to shut down the sentinels. Later, Hellion destroyed a sentinel as well.; When the 198 rioted, Mr. M stopped the Sentinels.; When the Children of the Vault sent Northstar and Aurora to attack the X-Men, the sentinels could not get in to the mansion, where the fight was taking place. Later Exodus stopped the sentinels also.; The Sentinels were ultimately destroyed. All units apparently died.; ===World War Hate===; During World War Hate, O*N*E agents operated on Mk VIII Sentinels in order to retrieve the "Nuclear Football" that X-Factor had stolen (due to the President, under the affect of the hate wave, intending to use it to launch a full-scale nuclear conflict).; The Sentinels formed a siege against Serval Industries's HQ, where the Football was stored, but were repelled by a force field, leading them to abduct Angela Snow as an hostage. Once the field was down, a battle opposed the Sentinels, and they were eventually destroyed by Danger.

+Seekers (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: Seekers (Earth-616)
+Full name: Seekers
+First appearance: Iron Man Vol 1 214
+Created by: Danny Fingeroth; Tom Morgan
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: San Francisco, California; (formerly) Floral Ridge, New Jersey; Denver, Colorado
+Equipment: Full technological body armor probably based on Tony Stark's basic Iron Man Armor, with specific configurations for each Seeker.
+Weapons: Different for each Seeker.; Grasp can shoot his gauntlets to imprison opponents and hit from a distance and can produce an energy shock net; Sonic has a chest Sonic Blaster and Energy Leeches in his gauntlets and; Chain has an Energized Chain.
+Transportation: Self propelled jet system in the boots of each Seeker.
+Notes: Even through the Seekers' armors are impressive themselves, they show a lot of weaknesses; like the fragility to extreme changes in temperature, and massive impacts, also they don't offer protection against energy based attacks.
+Trivia: In Spider-Man: Friends and Enemies Vol 1 2 the Seekers claim to have taken on 3 new members. Presumably two of those members were Laserworks and Fireball who were first seen in Darkhawk Vol 1 35. The sixth member of the team is unnamed unless Chain Lightning and Chain are two separate members.
+History:
+The Seekers consisted of three former A.I.M. scientists who had gone freelance and developed battle armor. One of the first team outings was to collect the bounty which had been placed on Spider-Woman's head. She was wanted by the US government after she helped the Avengers break out of the Vault. They met with a well-known informant called Scratch, who told Chain where to find her. Meanwhile Iron Man located Spider-Woman because he was able to trace the energy residue from her psionic webs. Iron Man told Spider-Woman that the Avengers owed her a great debt. All Spider-Woman wanted to do was to see her daughter Rachel. She was conflicted whether to turn herself in or to live as a fugitive. Iron Man decided to help her with her daughter's situation, and told her he would return.; The Seekers tracked her to Denver, Colorado and tried to take her down. Grasp captured Spider-Woman with his shock net and started a small brush fire. He then clamped her leg with one of his gauntlets while Sonic and Chain surrounded her. Iron Man arrived to help and she removed the gauntlet from her leg and took out Chain by tossing him to the ground and smashing his chest. Sonic knocked Iron Man out of the air with his sound cannon and attached a device to Iron Man's chest plate, hitting him with a surge of energy. The pain was unbearable, but Iron Man focused his pulse bolts on the device and destroyed it. He then took out Sonic with his concussion beam. Grasp, seeing his two comrades downed, tried to escape. He was suddenly caught by Spider-Woman's psionic webs and forced to take his armor off. The fighting stopped when Spider-Woman decides to surrender to the US government.

+Other aliases: Caterpillars; Commandos; Howlers; Howling Commandos
+First appearance: Mighty Avengers Vol 1 13
+Created by: Brian Michael Bendis; Alexander Maleev
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Nick Fury has rounded up a number of superhuman beings for use as agents against the Skrull Invasion.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Fury Secret Base
+Equipment: Stolen S.H.I.E.L.D. equipment
+Weapons: Stolen S.H.I.E.L.D. weapons
+Trivia: Secret Warriors Vol 1 has influenced events depicted in both Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Captain America: The Winter Soldier.; Eden Fesi joined Daisy's White Team, but according to Gateway, Nick Fury had intended Eden to be on his other group. It is not clear if this is referring to the Black Team led by Alexander Pierce or the Gray Team led by Mikel Fury.
+History:
+===Origins===; Following his removal as Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. on the heels of his Secret War in Latveria, Colonel Nick Fury was forced to go underground. He was able to stay active in the shadows by providing support to the reformed Winter Soldier, and allowing Captain America to use one of his safe houses as a base for his Secret Avengers during the superhero Civil War.; But Fury had been up to more than that. After going into hiding, he was able to reignite his passions with his old flame, Contessa Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine. Learning that Val was attempting to steal SHIELD passcodes from him and kill him, Fury shot and killed her. On her death, however, she revealed her true nature: she had been replaced by a Skrull impersonator.; Recognizing that Earth was being invaded by alien sleeper agents hidden among the society, Fury have assembled a team of Secret Warriors to defend it. The Secret Warriors recruit were a varied lot. Fury chose them not only for their competence, but also for their relative anonymity: he knew that obscure heroes would be ones least likely to be targeted for replacement by the Skrulls.; He began with seismic-wielding former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Daisy Johnson (Quake); Phobos (Alex) the 10-year old son of Ares; Yo-Yo Rodriguez, the super-fast daughter of The Griffin; Hellfire (J.T. Slade), the mystical mercenary grandson of the Phantom Rider (Carter Slade); the son of Dr. Druid, Sebastian Druid; and the muscle-bound Stonewall (Jerry Sledge).; Ironically, Fury also attempted to recruit Layla Miller, but she was expecting Agent Johnson. Miller claimed that if she joined Johnson's/Fury's team, "it wouldn't work" but without her, they wouldn't fail. She wished to stay with the mutants because they would need her. She stated Johnson would live through this, but was going to lose a lot.; ===Secret Invasion===; By the time the Skrull Invasion became apparent to the rest of Earth's heroes, Fury and this "new team of Howling Commandos" were prepared. They arrived during the battle against the Skrulls in Times Square, aiding the Young Avengers and the Initiative staff and cadets. The intervention of the Secret Warriors was crucial, helping to turn the tide of a losing battle against the Skrulls. Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers), after being heavily blasted by a group of Skrull soldiers ended up rising in the middle of Fury and his group in Times Square as they fought, shocked by the return of the ex-S.H.I.E.L.D. leader.; As they quickly headed into the fray, Yo-Yo managed to rescue all the downed Young Avengers and Initiative cadets just before could be executed. Ms. Marvel proceeded to help, but soon after was shot by Fury, who was unconvinced she was the real Carol Danvers. After being shot back into another street, the Skrull onlookers quickly overran her. Fury then called his men to retreat so that they could plan the next move. The Secret Warriors regrouped at Fury's command post with the Young Avengers and their Initiative comrades.; The Secret Warriors returned to the field for the final battle against the Skrulls alongside a slew of allies: the Mighty Avengers, the New Avengers, the Young Avengers, the new Captain America, Thor, the Thunderbolts, Noh-Varr, the Hood's crew, and more. In the fighting, Norman Osborn killed Queen Veranke on national television. As the heroes destroyed the Skrull armada, the Secret Warriors realized that their objective was complete.; ===Secret Warriors===; Fury's Secret Warriors found a new purpose when Fury discovered that S.H.I.E.L.D. had been under Hydra's control since its creation and that Hydra's influence had reached even some of the highest levels of the United States government. They made the purpose of destroying both organizations. Meanwhile, Baron Strucker assembled the High Council of Hydra.; After Yo-Yo had lost her arms to the Gorgon, a member of the High Council of Hydra, Daisy and Druid recruited Eden Fesi to replace her while Yo-Yo recovered. They were called into action in a battle between Hydra, H.A.M.M.E.R., and Fury's Howling Commandos PMC. To pay for the PMC, they stole money from a bank controlled by Strucker. Yo-Yo later awakened with new robotic arms right when Phobos, J.T., and Eden brought back Norman Osborn's H.A.M.M.E.R. and Dark Avengers to their secret hideout, forcing them to escape before it self-destructed.; Fury revealed to the team leader Daisy that he had two other Caterpillar teams, the Black Team led by Alexander Pierce and the Gray team led by Fury's son Mikel Fury; Daisy's team was the White Team and Fury's personal hammer. They discussed their enemies: Hydra and the Soviet organization called Leviathan. On the trip home, Fury urged Daisy to cut Druid for his incompetence, but when she showed she was unwilling, Fury himself sent Druid home. Unbeknownst to the others, Druid found John Garrett waiting for him at home and received private training.; Fury's apparent actions caused a rift between him and Daisy, and she began a relationship with J.T. However, because J.T. had used the money stolen from Hydra, he was tracked down by Baron Strucker and made into Hydra's unwilling spy. During the Siege of Asgard, the Warriors joined up with Steve Rogers, the New Avengers, and the Young Avengers to fight off Norman Osborn's attack on Asgard. Later, when Fury prepared his final moves against Hydra by bombing their base, Gehenna, J.T. warned Hydra, hoping they would spare Daisy. When the team attacked, Hydra was expecting them and led to the death of Phobos, slain by the Gorgon. When the bomb exploded, J.T. fell but was caught by Fury, who revealed that he knew J.T. had betrayed them before letting go. A reformed Druid reappeared with John Garrett to save the team. However, the death of J.T. and learning about his betrayal emotionally destroyed Daisy, forcing Fury to shut her team down.; Despite the team's disbandmant, Fury managed to defeat Hydra and Leviathan. His brother Jake gave Daisy a letter and she gathered the rest of her team to the site where S.H.I.E.L.D. was being rebuilt. Fury appointed Daisy to be the new director and many members of her team joined S.H.I.E.L.D.; ==Secret Warriors==; Colonel.

+Notes: Seed Nineteen are a pastiche of Jack Kirby's Fourth World characters, the Forever People.; The team are the Ultimate version of the Eternals, another creation of Jack Kirby.
+History:
+Seed Nineteen was one of many Seed units bred by Halcyon for resisting and defending against the dark forces of the Acheron Empire rule by Thanos. When Halcyon's most powerful Seed warrior Tesseract, the "Everywhere Man", was kidnapped by Thanos and brainwashed into serving the death lord's whim, Seed Nineteen, by their own accord, rescued Tesseract and narrowly escaped to the lower and uncharted dimensions, and found themselves in Earth's New York City by teleporting into a cosmetics store.; At first the team mistook Earth for a hostile world like those of their home dimension and came into conflict with the Fantastic Four. Eventually the misunderstanding was cleared up and the unit later teamed up with the Fantastic Four in rescuing Tesseract from Gallowglass who was able to track Seed Nineteen due to a brainwashed Tesseract. Both Seed Nineteen and the Four followed Gallowglass to the firedrake, Redeemer, and were close to defeat by Gallowglass and his forces. However, Susan Storm with the help of Dreamcatcher overcome Gallowglass, causing his apparent death and the destruction of the Redeemer. Fortunately both Seed Nineteen and the Four survived the devastation, and found themselves separated in Ironwater City on the Acheron-held world of Pyx. Both groups made their way back to Earth and confronted Ronan the Accuser, in which Reed Richards coordinated the teams in defeating the accuser. With the defeat of Ronan and Tesseract recovered from his brainwash, Seed Nineteen bid farewell to the Fantastic Four as they return to their dimension to continue their fight in liberating Pyx from the Acheron Empire with the help of the other Seed units.

+History:
+The Seekers are an elite hunting force from the Negative Zone, serving Annihilus during the Annihilation event. Led by Ravenous, one of Annihilus' top generals and second-in-command, they were tasked with tracking down and capturing wielders of the Power Cosmic, especially the Heralds of Galactus, so Annihilus could study and weaponize their energy.; Accompanied by packs of Currs, the Seekers used these living bloodhounds to sense cosmic energy signatures across vast distances, even through hyperspace. By channeling the Opposing Force (the Negative Zone’s equivalent of the Power Cosmic) through the Currs, the Seekers gained power levels comparable to Galactus’ Heralds.; During the Annihilation Wave, the Seekers clashed with several Heralds, including the Air-Walker (whom they rejected as an android), Terrax the Tamer, and Morg. They repeatedly battled the Silver Surfer but achieved some successes in capturing cosmic beings. After Annihilus’ defeat and death at the hands of Nova, Ravenous survived and briefly took command of the remaining Annihilation Wave forces. As part of a peace treaty, he received former Kree territories, including the capital world Kree-Lar.

+Equipment: S.H.I.E.L.D. equipment
+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+Transportation: S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier
+History:
+===Formation===; After a mysterious traveler from the future who launched an attack on a battalion of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents was killed, acting director of S.H.I.E.L.D. Maria Hill decided to activate the "Avengers Initiative", in order to form the agency's own Avengers unit. Daisy Johnson, at this time director of S.H.I.E.L.D. awaiting approval, also supported that step. The first recruits were two former members of the original black ops unit named the Secret Avengers, Hawkeye and Black Widow, along Nick Fury Jr., Phil Coulson, Mockingbird and Maria Hill. Due to the sensitive nature of their missions, every member (except Fury) would have memory implants, making them forget everything they did for the period of the operation by hearing a codeword, making them believe they were doing hobby activities during their time in the mission. Their first operation was to foil a plan of the terrorist group Al-Qaeda from using teleportation knowledge given by Andras Bertesy to execute a terrorist attack to the United States. The Secret Avengers followed the terrorist group to Budapest, were they got the coordinates of the attack from one of their members. After Hawkeye was left to be rescued by Black Widow as part of the mission, Fury settled a trap to the Al-Qaeda member who was going to perform the attack, by waiting him in the Oval Office and kill him.; ===Against A.I.M. under Andrew Forson===; In their second mission, the team rescued Taskmaster from Bagalia, in order to use him to infiltrate in A.I.M.'s new High Council.; After A.I.M. stole an Iron Patriot Armor during the confusion in a conflict they incited against S.H.I.E.L.D. at a weapons expo, the Secret Avengers, with the addition of Hulk, were given the task to kill Andrew Forson.; Meanwhile, S.H.I.E.L.D. Intel came to the conclusion the Iron Patriot androids could be reasoned with, and agent Phil Coulson asked Colonel James Rhodes to talk to them, as he had experience and military training. Using holographic communication, S.H.I.E.L.D. hacked into A.I.M.'s network and allowed Rhodes to talk to the suits, who recognised him as "the Pilot", along Tony Stark being "the Maker". Rhodey managed to make the Iron Patriot army understand their actions of abruptly attacking tactical points of enemies of the US was unacceptable.; After the Secret Avengers sent to kill Forson seemingly succeeded in their mission, Quake was suspended indefinitely for breaking the protocols, as Forson was the leader of a U.N. member nation, and Maria Hill was put in charge of S.H.I.E.L.D. once more, and the agents who took part in the assassination, Nick Fury, Black Widow and Hawkeye, were held for interrogation.; In the aftermath of the mission, Mockingbird was taken prisoner by A.I.M. and brainwashed. Taskmasker tried to help Mockingbird escape, but was knocked out by A.I.M. agent Anton Trask. The rest of the Secret Avengers attempted to rescue her, and after she disappearing during her rescue attempt, the team suffered a change of roster. Unknown to the team, Mockingbird went under the radar along with Daisy Johnson and Bucky Barnes.; ===A Great Culling Is Coming===; Meanwhile, M.O.D.O.K. had defected from A.I.M. to S.H.I.E.L.D. He brought with himself knowledge about A.I.M. and Maria Hill agreed to let him work for her in exchange for his intel.; After the A.I.M. Island episode, Iron Patriot and Hawkeye quit the team. After miping their minds one last time, Hill abondoned the idea of memory implants. Spider-Woman was added to the team roster, and Hawkeye re-joined when A.I.M. goons chased him into a spa where Black Widow and Spider-Woman were relaxing.; When Coulson and Nick Fury Jr. were attacked by the Fury while attempting to repair a satellite, the other three team members raced into space and rescued them. Meanwhile, an assassin entered S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier Iliad and attempted to kill Maria Hill, while stating: "A great culling is coming." However, M.O.D.O.K. rescued her.; The Fury fell from space onto Earth and reappered at the chinese Kowloon Walled City. Nick Fury Jr. and Hawkeye retrieved it from there and S.H.I.E.L.D. soon found out that the Fury was pregnant.; After his fall from space, Phil Coulson seemed to suffer from PTSD. He single-handedly took a week off and traveled to Venezuela, in order to find out about the "culling" that was about to come. Hill asked Nick Fury to go through Coulson's possessions in order to find out what he planned. When Fury opened Coulsons locker, an acid was ejected out of it and blinded him, putting him in a coma.; Maria Hill soon discovered that everything that had happened recently was orchestrated by M.O.D.O.K., who seeked to destroy S.H.I.E.L.D. from within and then replace Hill as head of the spy organization. What Hill didn't know was that M.O.D.O.K. had already backed down from his plan after falling in love with her. When Hill tried to confront M.O.D.O.K., the evil scientist had disappeared from the Helicarrier, and she interrogated his assistant Snapper.; Spider-Woman was able to decipher the language of the Fury with the help of a sentinel bomb named Vladimir, and it was revealed to repeat the same sentence over and over again: "The great culling is here." It was revealed Snapper carried on M.O.D.O.K.'s plan after his men infiltrated the Helicarrier and took Maria Hill hostage, while Spider-Woman was able to fight them off Nick Fury's sickbed. On Venezuela, M.O.D.O.K. met Phil Coulson and Hawkeye and told them about his plan and change of heart, in addition that there had been a misinterpretation on the message: Not a culling was coming, but a calling. After returning to the Helicarrier where they retrieved Nick Fury and The Fury (as the latter had cured Nick's injuries from the acid trap set up by Snapper), M.O.D.O.K. and the Secret Avengers started planning the next course of action to stop Snapper. After clarifying he didn't know of Snapper's location, M.O.D.O.K.'s assistant called him to gloat about his triumph, telling him where he was.; On the Venezuelan Rainforest, Snapper planned to unleash the monsters from a dimension calle Tlön on Earth. After M.O.D.O.K. and the Secret Avengers arrived to rescue Hill, Snapper tagged him with a transmission conductor, as well as Maria Hill and other people, turning him into the medium of a communal mindscape that used emotional negativity to create a gate for Tlön's rise. This was part of a plan, which continued with Spider-Woman using her pheromones to emotionally subdue Snapper. The rest of the Secret Avengers tagged themselves with transmission conductors to infiltrate the mindscape and try to imagine the best possible universe, hoping the force of their positive thoughts could reach Hill and outweight the negative of Tlön. When everything was coming apart at the seams, the final part of M.O.D.O.K.'s plan to defeat Snapper was put in motion, and Vladimir was dropped on the portal to Tlön. Vladimir opened a black hole which in contact with the Tlön gate created a singularity, reverting everything back to normal.; After the day was saved, the members of the Secret Avengers took a vacation.

+History:
+The Secret Avengers was a resistance group formed by superheroes who were opposed to being forced to register with the government by the passage of the Super-hero Registration Act on moral grounds. They were led by Captain America. They were opposed by the Initiative, which was led by Iron Man.; One day, Captain America led the Secret Avengers on a mission to free captured unregistered superheroes being held in Prison 42 in the Negative Zone, believing them to be political prisoners. Iron Man learned of the jailbreak from spies within the Secret Avengers' ranks and organized his forces in an ambush, which he bolstered with S.H.I.E.L.D. troops and conscripted villains. However, the self-destruct system in the prison was activated; Black Panther blamed Iron Man's side while Maria Hill of S.H.I.E.L.D. blamed Panther. It would be learned years later that the Skrulls were responsible for the system's activation. Everyone on both sides of the conflict rushed to escape through the teleportation power of the hero Cloak, who dropped them all in midair in St. Louis.; Unfortunately, Cloak could not shut off his powers fast enough to block out the explosion, which caused a beam of explosive energy to strike the ground in St. Louis, setting off a series of explosions that toppled buildings, killed super heroes, and left millions dead. Each side blamed the other for the cataclysm and became even more divided. This left the door open for the Skrull Invasion and the reign of Norman Osborn. The Secret Avengers were eventually dissolved and reorganized into a defense force in the newly organized Blue.

However, Strange learned of their temple while he was looking for the last traces of magic on the Earth. He incapacitated Wong to prevent him and the Disciples from risking their lives, and ordered those who had traveled there to leave.; Regardless of this, when Doctor Strange confronted the leader of the Empirikul, the Imperator, the remaining Disciples and hundreds of people across the world supported Strange and absorbed his pain so he could fight until the Imperator's defeat.; Once the dust settled, Wong sent the monks home and dismantled the Secret Disciples at Strange's request.

Angry to find an Earth still infested with humanity, the Seed of the Gibborim found the Runaways to demand they honor their parents promise. Although most flatly refused to participate, Alex Wilder asked for time to prepare and the Seed of the Gibborim granted them a week. Gib was assigned to stay at the Hostel to guard the Runaways while Bo and Rim.; When Rim and Bo returned, Gib tried to convince them to forgo the Rite of Thunder and even fought to defend the Runaways. While Gib attempted to convince his nestmates, Gert used her remote to summon the 4-D Time Portico to transport Bo and Rim 999 years into the future.

While Zemo and Black Widow took control of the base's computer with a computer virus, the rest of the Siege Society kill most of the Secret Squadron operating the base.

Later, Nighthawk, Blur, and the only survivor of the attack, Tom Thumb, attended the funeral of their fallen teammates.; ==Line-Up==; Amphibian (Kingsley Rice) (Deceased); Arcanna Jones (Deceased); Blue Eagle (James Dore Jr.) (Deceased); Blur (Stanley Stewart); Golden Archer (Wyatt McDonald) (Deceased); Nighthawk (Kyle Richmond); Tom Thumb (Thomas Thompson)

Made up of their classmates from Irodori High School, they joined forces to help Igarashi's best friend, fellow mutant Hisako Ichiki, both fight and investigate a mysterious stalker manifesting as a shadow who had been on a local killing spree and had connections to a mutant cult discreetly operating in Kirisaki City.; ===2024===; ====Fears and Hates====; In August, the group would learn the name of the cult they were seeking from members Natsu Tsukishima and Mori, the Children of the Atom, a religious institution to which they happened to belong. It was then that the Secret Society X-Men fought their first battle together when Hisako’s stalker suddenly appeared, revealing himself to be Shinobu Kageyama after being defeated by an angry Ichiki. Kageyama’s projection would vanish away.; ====Children of the Atom====; In October, when Kanon Sainouchi posted on social media an image of the discarded body of an experimented Child of the Atom she and her police officer brother Tatsuya had encountered, as well as a non-disclosure agreement forced on them by a member of the organization the previous month, Hi no Kuni exploded into national unrest over the existence of mutants. But it was not until November, after an encounter with Noriko Ashida, that Mei came to see the Children of the Atom as victims of adult abuse.; In December, behind the backs of her group of friends, Mei began talking to other Children of the Atom and brought them together as a larger, more revolutionary Secret Society X-Men, who hid behind Kabuki masks while seeking to save the rest of the Children of the Atom. Around this time, the X-Men were infiltrated by Yukio, also known as the streamer Chimame of 8-Chome Channel, who had come to Kirisaki City to investigate the strange goings-on in the city.; In January 2025, the all-new X-Men gathered in an abandoned building to discuss the sudden disappearance of the discarded corpse's social media presence and a course of action. But when Kageyama suddenly appeared with some of the Children of the Atom, Mei, now christened Maystorm, led her X-Men into battle. This was secretly recorded by Yukio and uploaded by her the following month.

Once there, he possessed their version of Professor X and then corrupted his team of original X-Men. He maintained constant telepathic contact and control over them and forced them to kill all the heroes of their world. The Scarlet Witch's Decimation Wave enabled the Shadow King to bring himself and his team to Earth-616 in order to gain revenge on those who had crossed him.; Not much was known about Shadow X, besides the fact that they were evil alternate reality counterparts to the original X-Men team (Cyclops, Beast, Angel, Marvel Girl, and Iceman) and were lead by the Dark Professor X. Their first assault foiled by mutant singer Alison Blaire after she performed at a local night club. They had killed the mutant singer, though she managed to revive herself. They were defeated by the newly assembled team New Excalibur.; Shadow X later resurfaced and became unlikely allies of Excalibur against Albion and his Shadow Captains. However, the war for London took its toll, and each member of Shadow X was killed in the struggle that followed.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Camp H.A.M.M.E.R.; Formerly:; Camp Hammond
+Notes: Although Ant-Man was not an official member of the team,, he was considered as kind of part of it during the Secret Invasion, and his promotion to the Thunderbolts as a loss by Bengal.
+History:
+The Shadow Initiative was a special "black ops" team within the Initiative, answerable only to Henry Peter Gyrich. This team consisted of Bengal, Trauma, Constrictor, Mutant Zero, and the Scarlet Spiders.; "The Initiative program denies all knowledge of a special Black Ops Team. There is no pardon on file for the super-villain known as the Constrictor. No record of any dealings with the Vietnamese national codenamed Bengal. Tony Stark cannot recall what became of his designs for the Iron Spider armor. And, most importantly, the Superhuman Armed Forces wishes to dispel all rumors of a 199th mutant. We repeat, there is no Mutant Zero. Mutant Zero does NOT exist. That is all."; This Shadow Initiative was sent out by Gyrich to free the Initiative members captured by the Hulk's Warbound; Rage, Cloud 9, Ultra Girl, Thor Girl, Slapstick and Hardball. On this assignment Bengal showed to be a perfect field leader of this Shadow Initiative.; The black ops group successfully rescued these captured trainees, while Trauma, their "secret weapon" tried to use his powers to scare the Hulk (becoming, in turn, the Abomination, Juggernaut, Brian Banner, and Bruce Banner) he failed to beat the Hulk, the Hulk beat him into unconsciousness, leaving Terrance alive to pass the message on to the others. Trauma later recuperated in the Initiative's medical bay. It is later revealed that the Scarlet Spiders are clones of Michael Van Patrick (MVP),a deceased initiative recruit accidentally killed. The Scarlet Spiders are later taken off the Black Ops team after revealing themselves to the public and places with the other trainees.; Gyrich called them to protect him from KIA, but they lost and one of the Scarlet Spiders was killed, and Constrictor was badly maimed. Mutant Zero saved Gyrich and the remaining Scarlet Spiders continued the battle for their brother. After KIA was defeated, the two remaining Scarlet Spiders left the Initiative to join Counter Force, a team of former New Warriors, MVP and these two, led by Justice, while Constrictor was healed with two bionic hands.; During the Skrull Invasion, the Shadow Initiative stayed at Camp Hammond while most others of the Initiative went to fight the Skrulls in New York. Later the Skrulls used Camp Hammond as a base, which Ant-Man (Eric O'Grady), discovers, having stayed behind out of cowardice. The Shadow Initiative tries to assassinate the Skrull Queen Veranke, but is defeated and captured, except for Ant-Man. During this story it was revealed Mutant Zero is a red haired woman.; After the events of the Secret Invasion, Taskmaster was added by Gauntlet to the Black-Ops team as their fieldleader. The first thing he did was discover Mutant Zero's true identity to be Typhoid Mary. After some of the cadets graduated, Batwing was appointed to the Shadow Initiative. However since the Shadow Initiative, including Komodo was on an assignment to take down Hardball in Madripoor, Batwing will have to be patient to meet the rest of his team.

+Based on a nameless yacht, Shadowforce Alpha was a daring, highly-trained mercenary terrorist cell that was composed of only the best and brightest covert operatives. Hired to kill Colonel Rudev Broga in his New York hospital room, Bombardier detonated a bomb in the hospital's waiting room as a distraction while Cordite and Clash infiltrated the building. Aided by a turncoat government agent, they succeeded in drugging Broga and taking out his bodyguards, although the suit was killed in the process. The final bodyguard, Cary Armstrong, managed to wound Cordite, but was grievously injured after the arrival of Flare and Stampede.; The arrival of the Scarlet Spider, who had battled and captured Bombardier, forced them to flee, but they subsequently signaled Shell and Shot to destroy the room.; Shell And Shot found that the Scarlet Spider and Broga had survived. Shot was taken down by the Spider, although Shell managed to escape with Broga. He took him to Operating Theater 8, where Clash had forced Greg Chasen, Raymond Crow, and Ellen Grantz to operate on the wounded Cordite.; When the police shut down the power, the Spider took out Shell, Stampede, and Flare, but was captured by Clash and the recovering Cordite. The arrival of a revived Cary Armstrong turned the tide, allowing the Spider to rescue Broga and the captive doctors.

+First appearance: Force Works Vol 1 12
+Created by: Dan Abnett; Fred Haynes; Carlos Franco
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Shadows' jungle hideway near Vitidos, San Revilla
+Trivia: With the exception of their leader Hawkeye and his two superhumans, Striker and Sundance, the other Shadows wear a high-tech armor, but it has been confirmed that it cannot withstand the concussive pulses that War Machine can emit.
+History:
+The Shadows were a rebel group involved in the civil war in San Revilla, a Central American country. The Shadows, perceived as terrorists and insurgents, were fighting the San Revilla government. The Shadows' attacks escalated into open conflict thanks to the intervention of the Advisor, a mysterious individual who may have demonic powers and who, weeks before, had collaborated with the Imayan dictatorship to the point of causing a revolt there, intended to motivate San Revilla to the point of complete self-destruction. apparently with the purpose of defining a way to destroy a country that could be replicated elsewhere (The Advisor implied that he derived sustenance or power from the destruction, corruption, and death of innocents). The Advisor also managed to get the U.S. government, through various departments, to support both sides through different departments, and resorted to bureaucracy so that no one in the US would know that their government was thus involved.; The Advisor concluded that it was essential to use superhumans in this conflict, so to begin with, he had the rebels have an elite parahuman unit, which was also called the Shadows, in which most rebel soldiers were equipped with high-tech weapons and armor. Two notable members who did not wear standard armor were the mercenaries Striker and Sundance. Shadows were a ruthless group that operated in stealth, attacking troops and refugees without warning and vanishing thanks to Sundance's light amplification powers. Precisely to corrupt another well-intentioned innocent, the Advisor recruited the ex-Avenger Hawkeye to lead and train the Shadows; at that time Hawkeye was devastated by personal problems after losing his wife, and the Advisor made Hawkeye believe that the U.S. State Department was supporting the rebel faction against the fascist government militia. Hawkeye led and trained the Shadows, ensuring that operations were planned to hit resources, not people, and avoiding the killing of even soldiers. However, unbeknownst to Hawkeye, the Shadows were attacking not only government troops but even civilians with lethal force.; The Shadows' escalating attacks, organized in a jungle hideway near Vitidos, and the government's brutal responses left field hospitals overflowing and without available resources in dilapidated buildings on the edge of the war zone. Possibly through the intervention of the Advisor, government forces were equipped with futuristic technology that could damage even an Iron Man-style armor, in order to have a chance against the superhuman Shadows; However, this was kept secret; In addition, the Advisor recruited Hazzerd and Troubleshooter, two superhuman mercenaries, and the U.S.Agent, another Avenger, who believed he was working for the US Commission on Superhuman Affairs to confront rogue terrorists. Hawkeye, the U.S.Agent, and War Machine were friends with each other, unaware that they were working on opposing sides.; Meanwhile, photojournalist Luke Bergier traveled to San Revilla with his fiancée Cindy to cover the war, but they had to attempt to leave the country on a Red Cross flight. While on the government airstrip, Shadows attacked refugees and troops; Hawkeye was present but apparently that part of the operation was hidden from him. Striker threw Luke and Cindy into a hangar wall, breaking his arm and her neck. Luke was sent to a field hospital. Luke's sister, Rebecca Bergier, worked as head of operations for the NGO Worldwatch, which investigated human rights causes, and convinced her coworker James Rhodes (secretly the superhero War Machine) to go to San Revilla to help Luke; Rhodes obtained classified information from San Revilla and a communications/surveillance pod to track communications and other technological activity in the area. Rhodes found Luke, who gave him his camera to develop the photos; Rhodes recommended Luke leave the country on a refugee flight if possible. While developing the photos, Rhodes saw an image that could be Hawkeye's, but, Hawkeye being his friend and colleague, he found it hard to believe.; Meanwhile, Hawkeye led the Shadows to attack a government fuel dump in Vitidos, causing raging fires. Rhodes heard the government's warning and went there in his War Machine armor to try to stop the rebels before they harmed another innocent person. Initially successful against non-powered troops, whom he stunned with a low-intensity repulsor thump, War Machine was then stunned when Striker and Sundance sneaked up on him and struck him with super-strength. War Machine deduced the nature of his enemies' powers as they pummeled him, and then ran into Hawkeye,, who sided with Sundance. Striker then threw War Machine into oil drums, and Hawkeye started a fire to escape. However, by then, War Machine was able to reconfigure his sensors and track the Shadows, having deduced how they were hiding. War Machine arrived at the Shadows' secret camp and spoke with Hawkeye, but neither could convince the other, and War Machine retreated.; Shortly after, the Shadows received orders to attack the Preto airstrip, supposedly because it was used to "ship in foreign mercenaries for the government." War Machine intercepted the communication and, using his armor's telescopic vision, confirmed that the airstrip had only three planes for refugee flights out of the country; he also saw Luke Bergier there. Convinced that the American government was feeding Hawkeye misinformation and tracing the source to Ciudad Revilla, War Machine decided to attack the seat of government. There he found the Advisor, but War Machine was unable to stop him due to the latter's superhuman powers. Understanding the Advisor's plan, War Machine went to Preto, where Hawkeye and his Shadows attacked aircraft and resources at Hawkeye's insistence; but before War Machine could get a handle on the situation, superhuman government agents Hazzerd, Troubleshooter and U.S.Agent, arrived with support troops. The mere presence of Hawkeye and War Machine made U.S.Agent reconsider the situation, unwilling to confront people whose morals he trusted, but Hazzerd attacked Hawkeye to fulfill his contract, initiating a fight especially since the Shadows were willing. War Machine damaged Troubleshooter's armor; Striker suckerpunched U.S.Agent, Hazzerd pummeled Hawkeye - but eventually U.S.Agent realized they had all been manipulated, and convinced Hawkeye to listen to War Machine. Hawkeye then stunned Striker and then went after Sundance, since he had trained them and knew their tricks; while War Machine used concussive pulses to control the non-superpowered troops. Troubleshooter threatened to use a still-operational cannon, but War Machine disabled it with an electromagnetic sweep; U.S.Agent defeated Hazzerd, and Hawkeye defeated Sundance. Once the heroes won the battle, a huge vision of the Advisor appeared, acknowledging that they had thwarted his plans but also attempting to intimidate them and swearing revenge; However, War Machine countered to the Advisor that since his power depended on manipulating others and humans were fast learners, the Advisor had not only lost that day, but would lose many more times in the future. Hawkeye, Luke, U.S.Agent, and War Machine left San Revilla the next day, apparently having ended the civil war. The Advisor's involvement was reported to the American government. It is unclear whether the Shadows remained active in some way after this.

+The Sewer People were a group of hideously deformed humans that lived in the sewers of New York City during the 1940s, their existence predating the Morlocks by at least 20 years. They were led by a ruthless one-eyed man calling himself the Cyclops. After years spent scrounging for food, the Cyclops convinced his people to rise from the sewers and attack the surface people they had grown to hate so much.; Those they did not murder in the streets, they took down into the sewers below and tortured. Their activities were a mystery to the surface world but grabbed the attention of the Vision. Appearing in New York, he came to the aid of a young woman being attacked by the creatures and was captured himself. Brought down into their laid, the Cyclops decided to torture him personally. Tied to a table, the Vision was to be tortured with a blow torch, however the smoke from this torch allowed the Vision to transport between dimensions and appear behind the Cyclops.; Catching the Cyclops off guard, the Vision managed to close down the flood gates in the underground tunnels and begin filling the sewers with water. With his minions trapped, the Cyclops attempted to free himself, but was beaten into unconsciousness by the Vision. With the Cyclops defeated, the Vision left the sewers, leaving the Sewer People to drown, ending their threat.

+Equipment: Each of the Sons of Satan carries a capsule that once bitten into releases a cloud of smoke that resembles a human soul leaving the body.
+Weapons: The Sons had access to explosives, daggers, samurai swords, flame throwers, and at one point used a poisonous cobra as a weapon.
+History:
+The Son of Satan was not one man, but seven identical brothers whose father was a Satan worshiper as well as a staunch Japanese loyalist. On his deathbed, he told his children to "Go forth and crush our enemies! You are the sons of Satan... Make yourselves hated among the white race!" He ordered his sons to brand their foreheads with the mark of the cloven hoof and to use black magic and superstition against their enemies.; By 1944, the Sons of Satan had set up in India just outside the boarder of Berma. There they began a series of attacks on Allied Forces using the trickery they learned from their father to facilitate these attacks. The first such brother disguised himself as a snake charmer and sent a cobra to attack General Montbatten who was to command Allied troop on an attack on Berma. The general was rescued by Steve Rogers and James Buchanan Barnes (secretly Captain America and Bucky). They chased after Montbatten's attacker, and when they cornered him, he attempted to attack Barnes with a knife. In the struggle, he tripped over Barnes and landed on his knife. As he died, he told the two men that he was the "Son of Satan" and that he would return from the dead stronger than before.; That night, the second brother went to the American outpost and attempted to blow up their ammo dump with a small rocket. This rocket was intercepted by Captain America and Bucky. When the two heroes confronted the second brother, he claimed to be the Son of Satan as well. When the two heroes were about to defeat him, he committed suicide, telling them that he will return three times stronger than ever before. Biting down on a specially made capsule as he died, a wisp of smoke came from his mouth, making it look like his soul was leaving his body to further support this belief.; The attack convinced General Montbatten to begin the attack that night. Their troop had to pass through a canyon that went past a tower. This tower is where the third brother was located. He rigged explosives to the canyon and was prepared to set off the explosives if he was not for the fact he was spotted by Captain America and Bucky. Cornered by the two heroes, the third brother caused the switch to the explosives to short circuit, electrocuting himself to death.; The fourth brother attempted to get elephants to trample the soldiers by using a flamethrower to make them stampede. Captain America and Bucky turned the elephants the other way with some mice and then confronted the fourth brother -- Captain America convinced they have been fighting different men each time. The remaining four brothers all joined in and knocked out Captain America and Bucky and took them to their hideout. There, the they were told the truth, and were to be beheaded, but the two heroes broke free and beat the four remaining "Sons of Satan" into submission.; The surviving members were turned over to the military, their subsequent fate is unknown.

+History:
+===Origin and early years===; The Seraphim were descended from the Bird-Men of Akah Ma'at, a race created by Oshtur as a counterpoint to Set's and Chthon's beast races.; Circa 15,000 BC, after spending some time with the Bird Men, Agamotto chose a new Sorceress Supreme from among their ranks, Shamhat Saraswati, the Great Priestess. Guided by Shamhat and her sponsors Oshtur and Agamotto, the Bird-Men of Akah Ma'at soon evolved into powerful sorcerers and almost godlike beings, the Winged Lords, with Varuna becoming the most powerful among them.; Chthon's lies caused Varuna, the most powerful of the Winged Lords of Akah Ma'at, to become suspicious of the "lower races", and some of Akah Ma'at eventually grew indifferent to the well-being of "lesser" beings. The most evolved of the Bird Men split into two factions:; Varuna gathered same-minded followers, the "righteous avengers" of the Asura, who felt superior and wished to force their will on others, Varuna became Judge and Executioner, and allegedly used the stars to spy upon Man.; Ashamed at their fellows, Saraswati and her followers, the "peaceful guardians" of the Seraphim, vowed to protect those the Asura would harm, thus remaining true to their purpose of protecting mankind.; ===War and banishment===; The ideological dispute grew into a civil war, with the help of Chthon, who took advantage of this schism, and turned the factions against one another. Ultimately, the Seraphim and Asura grew so destructive, and the conflict caused massive earthly devastation, that Oshtur was forced to intervene.; Oshtur banished both the Asura and Seraphim, and the whole city, into the Dark Dimension (The Splinter Realms, or the "Archipelago of Anguish and Redemption"), to the extradimensional Planes of Sephiroth. By 11,000 BC, the Bird Folk had "ascended". One account mention the Winged Lords "prepared to journey [...] into the Higher Realms", though the exact circumstances of the banishment are unknown.; ===On Sephiroth===; Stranded in a hostile environment, the Seraphim and Asura secured an uneasy yet lasting peace. Together, they forged the Citadels of Sephiroth, who served as a line of defense against creature from the Dark Dimension that would invade the Lower Realms. The Bird Men continued to evolve there and still reside there.; The Seraphim became at some point (possibly before their banishment) mystic principalities, whose names were often invoked for spells such as the Shield, the Skill, the Speed, the Circle, and the Serum of the Seraphim. They became known across the dimensions for their spells of protection and defense. They also became enemies of Shaeol, and would later be involved in the extradimensional War of the Seven Spheres, themselves opposing Shaeol. To praise them, such as in a spell praising the Seraphim's Bright Shield, was to praise Oshtur herself.; The S'raphh, a pure-hearted race that resided on Earth's Moon millenia ago, may have been descendants of the Bird-Men of Akah Ma'at, perhaps remnants of the Seraphim faction who might have evaded the banishment of their people.; ===Modern Age===; ====War of the Seven Spheres====; Before the War of the Seven Spheres began, many of the Principalities and mystic entities usually invoked for power sought to recruit Doctor Strange to fight for them. Escaping them by using spells from other entities, Strange eventually ended up among the Seraphim after having used the Shield of the Seraphim to escape Cyttorak. The Seraphim asked for Strange's help to march against their enemy, Shaeol. Soon, Cyttorak, Ikonn, the Vishanti (Agamotto, Oshtur, and Hoggoth), the Faltine, Raggadorr, Munipoor, Satannish, Valtorr, and Denak arrived to claim Strange for their side. To escape them all, Strange invoked the Law of Emancipation, relinquish the ability to call upon any of the powers and principalities. The conflict would last five thousand years, though waged within months by human reckoning.

+The Shade-Thralls are manifestations tied to the influence of Dweller-in-Darkness, formed from human victims driven to acts of self-destruction under his manipulation. These individuals, often compelled to take their own lives—and at times the lives of others—are subsequently transformed into shadowy entities resembling demonic silhouettes.; In this altered state, Shade-Thralls exist as extensions of the Dweller’s power, capable of inducing intense fear in those who encounter them. Their physical capabilities are considerable, with strength sufficient to overpower even superhuman opponents and drag them into darkness. This strength appears to be amplified by the fear they provoke, making those who resist or lack fear less vulnerable to their attacks.; Shade-Thralls exhibit a pronounced weakness to natural light, which can disperse their forms or force their return to the Dweller’s extradimensional realm, often referred to as the Halls of Fear. In certain instances, mystical sources of illumination—such as energies originating from Nirvalon—have been shown to disrupt their structure entirely, restoring the original human form. Victims who revert retain no memory of their actions while under the Dweller’s control.

+Notes: According to Spider-Man, Mysterio was the one to come up with the name "the Sinister Six."; Boomerang owns the rights to the Sinister Six name.
+History:
+===The Original Sinister Six===; After suffering two defeats from the wall-crawling, web-slinging super-hero Spider-Man, Doctor Octopus realized that he required assistance from others in order to defeat Spider-Man. He got in touch with every known super-villain that Spider-Man had already crossed paths with at the time and only five of them responded: the airborne assassin the Vulture, the electrifying Electro, the wild Kraven the Hunter, the mysterious Master of Illusions Mysterio, and the shapeshifting Sandman. Knowing that he would never be able to keep the team together for long, Doctor Octopus quickly formulated a battle plan that would give each of the villains' personal glory and hopefully Spider-Man an early death. Each individual member of the Sinister Six would battle Spider-Man in a carefully chosen location, until the point where the Web-Slinger was no more.; Spider-Man himself had his own problems, however, as he had somehow lost his spider-powers and prepared to return to normal life as an ordinary teenager. While blaming himself for the death of his uncle, Ben Parker, Spider-Man lost his balance and fell down the side of a building, landing on and clinging onto a flagpole. As Peter returned to his normal life as a student and a freelance photographer, he was unaware of the fact that the Sinister Six realized the Daily Bugles secretary Betty Brant played a large role in Spider-Man's life and kidnapped her, along with an innocent bystander - Peter's aunt, May Parker.; It was then left to the Vulture to spill the beans to J. Jonah Jameson, warning him to inform Spider-Man that Betty was being held hostage along with Aunt May and if he ever wanted to see them alive again, he would have to battle the Sinister Six.; Despite not having his spider-powers, Peter put on his Spider-Man costume and went to fight Electro first at an electrical plant. During the battle, Peter somehow regained his spider-powers (it was speculated by him later to be a psychological block caused by his own self-loathing for the loss of his uncle, which he got over when facing a life-or-death situation) and easily defeated Electro. Spider-Man then battled Kraven the Hunter, who confronted him with some big cats, and defeated him also. After defeating Mysterio and his android duplicates of the original X-Men, the Sandman (who trapped the Wall-Crawler and himself in an indestructible airless chamber), and the Vulture, Spider-Man went up against Doctor Octopus, who lured him into an enormous fishbowl. The two foes battled, and Spider-Man was victorious. All six super-villains were subsequently sent to prison.; ===The Return of the Sinister Six===; Many years later, the villains all escaped prison and went to get revenge on the Wall-Crawler. However, times had changed as Kraven had committed suicide, so the Hobgoblin took his place. The group was organized once again by Doctor Octopus, who claimed they would try again to defeat Spider-Man. However, this was a trick, part of a larger plan by which Octopus alone would be the master of the world by extorting cocaine addicts. The Sandman, having at this point in his career reformed, aided Spider-Man in defeating the Sinister Six, ultimately stopping Octopus's plans to conquer the world.; ===Revenge of the Sinister Six===; A few months later, the group reunited once more in a bid to take over the world using alien weaponry. The Sandman's foster family was hit with a bomb, and the Sandman, believing that Octopus had attacked them as punishment for betraying him the last time that the group had formed, joined the other four members of the Sinister Six in a plan to take revenge on Octopus. Despite his grief, however, the Sandman contacted Spider-Man and asked him to shadow the group as insurance against him being double-crossed or any other unexpected surprises.; By this point, Octopus had already re-obtained his lost Adamantium arms (by killing a wealthy and unethical elderly individual who offered to sell them to him) and stealing the old man's robot soldiers and weapons. Octopus easily defeated the other five members of the Six with them, then zapped the Sandman with a weapon that transformed his living sand body into a solid glass statue (Octopus, however, was apparently not responsible for the bombing of the Sandman's foster family, which was apparently done by the other four members of the Six in order to coerce the Sandman into joining their revenge scheme; in addition, Octopus had not only anticipated the Six's plan to reassemble and take revenge upon him, but had deliberately facilitated it, even to the point of secretly paying Electro to help ensure that the Six reassembled so that he could coerce the other four members into aiding him in his scheme).; The assembled Sinister Six then went off on a rampage, stealing advanced weapons and technology from several sources, including raiding an alien dimension for advanced weaponry and attacking a facility specializing in cybernetics, in the process having several successful encounters beating Spider-Man, the Hulk (who was in his Merged Hulk alter at the time), Deathlok the Demolisher, Solo, and others (before acquiring more advanced alien weapons, the Hulk trounced the other members of the Six, then got stomped on by Octopus because Octopus had his Adamantium arms).; Merely defeated in his initial encounter with the Six, Spider-Man was left with hairline fractures on one arm and one leg, but was able to pursue them with medical attention, including cybernetic casts. Eventually, Spider-Man and several other super-heroes confronted the villains as they were seizing a Hydra base to gain access to deadly, world-devastating weapons (during the Six's raiding assaults on various locations, the group engaged in wanton mass murder, simply exterminating anyone who got in their way, and shocking Spider-Man in the process as, despite their lack of scruples, these particular villains did not generally kill people wantonly). The last member of Octopus's Sinister Six was revealed to be Gog, and a combat between members of the super-hero community summoned by Spider-Man (including the Fantastic Four, Nova, the Hulk, and Solo) broke out, ending when the broken-glass body of the Sandman shredded Doctor Octopus, nearly killing him.; ===The Sinister Seven===; A variation of the group known as the Sinister Seven was formed by the Hobgoblin to fight Kaine, a defective clone of Spider-Man that was killing super-villains, including Doctor Octopus and the Grim Hunter (Kraven the Hunter's son). The remaining members of the Six (the Hobgoblin, Electro, Mysterio, and the Vulture) first gathered in the aftermath of Octopus's death. They soon reassembled with the Shocker, the Beetle, and Scorpia to actively hunt down Kaine. In the meantime, however, Kaine was already hunting them. Peter Parker (in the Scarlet Spider costume) was forced to intervene and prevent any of his enemies from killing each other.; ===Another Return of the Sinister Six===; Doctor Octopus was eventually resurrected from the dead and remained on bad terms with his former five teammates. Eventually, the Sandman put together another version of the Six for the sole purpose of killing both Doctor Octopus and his ally, Senator Stewart Ward. When Spider-Man intervened, they were forced to add an extra member to their roster as a replacement for Doctor Octopus: the enraged Venom. The Six were defeated again (ironically, Venom subsequently went on to attack the various members of the Six, nearly killing the Sandman and badly injuring Electro and Kraven the Hunter before he and his symbiote were briefly separated from each other).; ===The Sinister Twelve===; A few years later, Norman Osborn, the Green Goblin, had been unmasked publicly and imprisoned after losing a battle to Spider-Man. Defeated but unbowed, Osborn concocted a fiendish contingency plan. He contacted a group of super-villains who also bore grudges against Spider-Man, all of whom having been financed by Osborn's fortune for years. Eager for revenge, the villains agreed to band together, and the Sinister Twelve was formed.; Mac Gargan, the Scorpion, was the de facto leader of the Twelve while Osborn was in prison, and it was he who kidnapped Peter Parker's Aunt May and threatened to kill her if Spider-Man did not help Osborn escape from jail. A desperate Spider-Man, with the Black Cat's help, broke Osborn out, only to be confronted by the Vulture, the Sandman, Electro, the Chameleon, the Lizard, Hydro-Man, the Shocker, Hammerhead, Boomerang, and Tombstone. Osborn, now again in the guise of the Green Goblin, introduced them as the Sinister Twelve. The final member of the group, the Scorpion, shocked everybody present when he arrived, revealing that he had bonded with Eddie Brock's alien symbiote, becoming the new Venom. Although Osborn was displeased with Gargan's new identity and powers, he nevertheless watched with glee as the assembled villains converged on the hopelessly outnumbered Spider-Man and the Black Cat. The cavalry arrived in the form of Captain America, Iron Man, Daredevil, Yellowjacket and the Fantastic Four, since Spider-Man's wife, Mary Jane Watson-Parker had alerted S.H.I.E.L.D., correctly suspecting that Osborn was going to double-cross him. A furious Green Goblin rocketed away on his Goblin Glider and kidnapped her, and Spider-Man pursued him, fighting off Venom, who was trying to stop him.; Spider-Man and the Goblin clashed once again upon another New York bridge, this time with Mary Jane's life at stake. Finally, Osborn gave a vital clue as to Aunt May's whereabouts and was defeated by a combination of being shot by Mary Jane, struck by lightning, and attacked by Doctor Octopus, who had been brainwashed by the police into trying to kill him at midnight. The Goblin and Doctor Octopus both fell into the river below, and Aunt May was found and saved. Octopus was found to be still alive, although he was missing two months of his whole life that he could not remember at all, but the Goblin's body was never recovered no matter how many times the police trawled the river.; In the aftermath, Peter received a pre-sent letter from Osborn that was written before his disappearance, thanking him for all of the "excitement" that their rivalry had provided over the years and telling him to rest easy until they met again. The rest of the Sinister Twelve were subdued by the other super-heroes and arrested; Gargan ended up, ironically, in Osborn's old cell.; ===Civil War===; A new version of the Sinister Six apparently banded together during the Superhuman Civil War, but were stopped by Captain America and his Secret Avengers.; ===Ends of the Earth===; Spider-Man, the Avengers, and the Fantastic Four later fought Doctor Octopus and his macro-Octobot army. During that time, he had assembled another version of the Sinister Six, consisting of the Chameleon (who was posing as Steve Rogers), Electro, Mysterio, the Rhino, and the Sandman in a plot to slip the macro-Octobot army into a military base and detonate them.; Faking an attack in another place, Doctor Octopus managed to catch the attention of the Future Foundation so that he could enter the Baxter Building and steal some important pieces of technology.; Spider-Man; As part of Doctor Octopus's final plan, the Six defeated the group of genius super-villains called the Intelligencia and stole their Zero Cannon, a powerful weapon which could change Earth's gravity to send specific objects into outer space.; Sometime later, Doctor Octopus, in his plan to be remembered as the man who saved Earth, offered the chance to stop the greenhouse effect as well as speed it up, using a special device connected with different satellites in Earth's orbit.; Disguised as Vice President Al Gore, the Chameleon tried to accelerate the decision of the world's leaders about the matter, but his true identity was uncovered by Spider-Man, who interrupted the scene along with the Avengers. When the Chameleon was freed, he arrived in the Mediterranean on a meeting with the rest of the team. The Avengers followed them and arrived, fighting the Six, but they were all defeated by the villains; the price of the battle was Electro, who was sent into outer space by Thor.; Using an explosion as a distraction, Silver Sable saved both Spider-Man and the Black Widow. When they tried to get to one of Octopus's manufacturing plants of satellites, they defeated the Sandman, but Octopus asked for help to all nations, due to his position in the matter, to capture Spider-Man.; While Spider-Man and his allies continued to disarm Doctor Octopus's bases, defeating the Rhino in the process, they were attacked by S.H.I.E.L.D. forces before they could capture him and were forced to flee. Octopus asked for help of other super-villains to watch over his facilities all over the world, but even after Spider-Man tracked down the last one, Octopus revealed that he was going to destroy the world anyway rather than save it. He activated his Octavian Lens, burning up half of the world, including Silver Sable's country, Symkaria. But this was revealed to be a trick of Mysterio's, who only burned a small portion of a city in Skymaria, while the Chameleon used a robot to fight Spider-Man. After they were defeated, Mysterio was convinced by Spider-Man to help him catch Octopus at his base in Guatemala, but Octopus used the mind-controlled Avengers as his new Sinister Six.; Spider-Man, Sable and the Widow managed to defeat the Avengers, then he and Sable headed to Octopus's underwater base. They were faced by the Rhino while the base started to flood; he trapped Sable and left Spider-Man with two choices: continue to fight him in order to save Sable from drowning (but Octopus would still activate the lenses) or let him himself and Sable drown but stop Octopus. After leaving Sable to her death at her request, Spider-Man managed to destroy Octopus's arms and equipment before taking his foe away to a doctor.; ===The Superior Foes of Spider-Man===; Boomerang; Months after that event, Boomerang and some other super-villains decided to form a group as the "all-new" Sinister Six. They fought Spider-Man (Doctor Octopus's mind in Spider-Man's body at the time), who captured one of their members, the Living Brain, reprogramming it to serve him. Boomerang continued to call the team the "Sinister Six" in the absence of a sixth member, reasoning "what's a better deal than being the Sinister Six, but only splitting the money five ways?" Boomerang directed the team on various heists for his own self-serving ulterior motives, at one point recruiting a small army of super-villains with the help of the Owl's connections and calling it the "Sinister Sixteen." The team eventually broke up after Boomerang had thoroughly screwed everyone over, including himself.; ===Swarm's All-New Sinister Six===; A new incarnation of the Sinister Six appeared, dubbing themselves the "All-New Sinister Six", consisting of 8-Ball, Delilah, Killer Shrike, the Melter, and the Squid, with Swarm as the leader. This incarnation was fought by Spider-Man and the students of the Jean Grey School and ended with Swarm being defeated by Hellion, causing the rest of the Six to surrender.; ===The Iron Spider's Sinister Six===; After obtaining a recolored version of the Iron Spider Armor, Aaron Davis formed the latest incarnation of the Sinister Six, consisting of Bombshell, the new Electro, the original Hobgoblin, the Sandman, and the Spot. Their objective was to carry out a heist, stealing a decommissioned S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier to sell it to Lucia von Bardas. Despite their alliance, Davis' associates doubted both him and the Sandman; Electro and the Spot even considered betraying him and splitting up the money between themselves. The Hobgoblin also attempted to go his own way, and made a deal with one of the Helicarrier's Hulked-Out guards to sell out the rest of the team after being caught doing recon.; Davis clashed with his nephew, Miles Morales a.k.a. Spider-Man, when Bombshell attempted to recruit her daughter, Lana, into their enterprise. The Iron Spider confronted Miles and warned him to stay out of the way. After Bombshell forced her daughter to accompany them, the Sinister Six carried out the heist during a small window of time that the Helicarrier was unguarded. Lana tipped off Spider-Man of her location, and he attempted to stop the heist; however, the Helicarrier's Hulked-Out guard returned, since he had been tipped off by the Hobgoblin, which prevented Spider-Man from stopping his uncle. The Helicarrier took off and disappeared using cloaking. On their way to Latveria, the Sandman knocked out the Hobgoblin for selling out the rest of the team. He was then thrown out of the Helicarrier while still unconscious. The Sinister Six's meeting with von Barda was interrupted by Spider-Man and the Champions, who had followed them to Latveria. The Champions defeated both parties involved in the transaction. In the middle of the fight, the Iron Spider and Spider-Man were forced over the edge of the Helicarrier, resulting in Davis' apparent fall to his death. He survived, however, and swore off the criminal life.; ===Sinister War===; Following Doctor Octopus's return to villainy, he wanted to fill the gaps in his memory that had occurred after his deal with the Hell-Lord Mephisto. A demon called Kindred contacted him and told it could help Octopus in return for him helping the demon in its plans.

+First appearance: X-Factor Annual Vol 1 1
+Created by: Bob Layton
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: A group of Russian mutant heroes banded together.
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The former Soviet regime considered mutants dangerous and a threat to security. Many were hunted down and killed. Others were pressed into military service. A few formed a 'mutant underground' in Siberia.; Iron Curtain and an unnamed member of the group were coerced to attack X-Factor at an airport. The unnamed member died during the attack. Iron Curtain was able to explain his actions to Iceman, who agreed to help. They then attacked the Doppelganger's lab.; Darkstar, Vanguard, and Ursa Major joined the Soviet Super-Soldiers group, but went rogue after a time and refused to work directly for the State. Siberforce offered them sanctuary, but trailed by Firefox and other Russian forces. Concussion, Mentac, and Iron Curtain were killed by Firefox.; Blind Faith and Darkstar later investigated the murders caused by the Soul Skinner. They were attacked but freed by the X-Men, who were looking for the kidnapped Magik.; Darkstar and Vanguard were also sent to investigate the Starblaster's attack on the moon.; With the formation of the Winter Guard, Siberforce seems to have been disbanded with only a few members asked to join the new group. The whereabouts of the other members, especially in light of the depowering of many mutants, are unknown.

+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+Trivia: The Shi'ar Death Commandos have a combined kill count of 3,745.
+History:
+The Death Commandos were an elite off the books black ops squadron working for the Shi'ar Empire. They were all created through special experiments and are criminals to the public eye and often from enemy species. Unlike the regular Imperial Guard, they are all unique except Black Cloak who is always an exguardsman.; They were first seen sent to eliminate the Grey Genome. They succeeded in killing all except Rachel Grey and Cable (although it's debatable how he fits into the Grey line, since his mother was a clone of Jean Grey). They then attempted to destroy Rachel after she had sneaked away from the Institute, but the X-Men and one of the O*N*E sentinels arrived in time to help her.; During the War of Kings, Gladiator believed that Lilandra was murdered by the Death Commandos (it was in fact a raptor in Darkhawk armor). Gladiator hunted down Black Cloak and his superiors and engaged Black Cloak in combat. Black Cloak actually managed to hold his own against the enraged Gladiator and had gained the upper hand and was about to kill him when Rachel Summers arrived with the Starjammers and used her powers to explode his head, killing him in revenge.; Following the death of Black Cloak, a second one replaced him on the team. Meanwhile, Xandra Neramani was being trained to take the throne of the Shi'ar Empire and requested to see her aunt, Deathbird. However, Oracle saw Deathbird as a threat and sent the Death Commandos to kill her and her escort, the New Mutants. Flaw, Hypernova, and Offset were all killed immediately after boarding the escort vessel by Magik and Devo, Krait, and Shell were defeated, which led to Black Cloak ordering Warshot to destroy the ship. They then captured the New Mutants and while Black Cloak tortured them, Deathbird ambushed them and killed both Warshot and Black Cloak.; The new Majestrix, Xandra Neramani would attempt to completely dissolve the Death Commandos in order to right the wrongs of the Shi'ar Empire. This attempt was unsuccessful as the Death Commandos were reformed under a new Black Cloak behind Xandra's back. After the Secret Alliance overthrew Xandra and established Electron as the new Majestor, he tasked the Death Commandos with hunting down the former Majestrix and her allies after escaping to somewhere in the Shi'ar Galaxy.

The Shockwave Riders seemed to be Neo with cybernetic implants that enhanced their abilities. The Neo suffered a major crisis after the High Evolutionary temporarily deactivated the mutant gene. As a result, they unleashed their rage upon Earth and, more specifically, the X-Men, a group of mutant activists who promoted racial integration. The Shockwave Riders were specially interested in securing the powerful telepath Jean Grey. As such, they attacked the X-Men in Venice to intercept her. They joined forces with the Lost Souls, but Jean Grey was able to triumph over both sects. Showing mercy, she allowed the Shockwave Riders to leave. In Russia, the Shockwave Riders were contacted by the Neo dissident Ransome Sole, who had captured the X-Men and offered Grey to the Shockwave Riders as a prize. However, the Shockwave Riders' leader Farahd demonstrated no interest in associate her cadre with Sole.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Robot team
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Shogun Sanctuary
+Trivia: Shogun Warriors were a line of toys, licensed by Mattel during the late 1970s that consisted of a series of imported Japanese robots, all based on then-popular giant robot anime TV series. They were originally manufactured in three sizes: the 24 inch plastic versions, the 3.5 inch diecast metal versions and the slightly taller but much more detailed and articulated 5" diecast versions. There were also several vehicles offered and a set that could be put together to form Combattra (Combattler V).; The most attractive features on these toys were the spring loaded launcher weapons such as missiles, star shuriken, and battleaxes. Some robots were able to launch their fists. The later diecast versions of these toys were also attractive for the ability to transform into different shapes. Grendizer, for instance, was changeable into a saucer-like spaceship. These "convertible" editions were the precursors to the "Transformers" line of toy robots, but unlike the later toyline, it was not unusual for minor disassembly to be required to achieve the secondary form. Also the second form was not always an apparently useful one, a "giant skull" for instance.; Like certain other toylines of the 1970s, the Shogun Warriors came under pressure due to safety concerns regarding their spring loaded weapons features. Toy manufacturers were facing new regulations due to reported child injuries as a result of playing with these toys. Consequently, many toy companies were forced to remodel existing toylines with child safe variations (such as spring loaded "action" missiles that would remain attached to the toy). For this reason, as well as decreasing sales, the Shogun Warriors toyline disappeared by 1980.; Several of the anime from this toyline were seen in the 1980s as part of Jim Terry's Force Five series.
+History:
+The Shogun Warriors were three giant robots (Raydeen, Combatra and Dangard Ace) piloted by, respectively, American stunt driver Richard Carson, Japanese pilot Genji Odashu and African marine scientist Ilongo Savage, created by the mysterious Followers of the Light to protect Earth from alien invasions. The robots were eventually destroyed, some months after the threat they were created to deal with was vanquished by the Shoguns themselves aided by the Fantastic Four.

+History:
+During the downfall of Apocalypse, Sinister recovered the body of Jean Grey, seemingly thought dead after she manifested the Phoenix Force to save the world from eradication. As Magneto was credited for this miracle, Sinister used his knowledge of the truth to blackmail Magneto into staying away from him while the X-Men went after war criminals during Apocalypse's regime.; He formed the Sinister Six, a group of six mutants that included a brainwashed Jean Grey, Sonique, Sauron, Cloak, Dagger, and the Blob.; When Magneto was forced to tell his X-Men the truth, he led them to Liberty Island where Sinister revealed his minions to the X-Men and a battle broke out. They managed to slay some of the X-Men: Gambit was lost in Cloak's Darkforce Dimension, and Quicksilver died upon impacting with Sauron. However, the Sinister Six would not be victorious in their fight: Sonique was knocked out by Silver Samurai, and the Blob was knocked out by Rogue. Cloak was struck down by a lethal lightning bolt by Storm, while Magneto slayed both Dagger and Sauron. Jean Grey was freed from Sinister's control and she horribly burned her manipulator before he was killed at the hands of Weapon X and his daughter Kirika.

They found Shang-Goo-La, an Indian town where time did not pass, which was commonly hidden by magicks - but at that point, strong rains had hampered the spells. The bikers harassed and imprisoned the last two inhabitants, Duckowee Native Americans Chief Sitting Duck and One-Feather. Having all the time in the world, thou, the Indians spent 30 years digging a escape tunnel, and One-Feather was sent to find help. One-Feather went missing, but journalists J. Jonah Jackal, Bunsen Bunny, J. Jeremiah Jackal, Upton Adam Stray and photographer Peter Porker (the later being secretly superhero Spider-Ham) came to Shang-Goo-Laa following a lead. The bikers imprisoned all of them and tried to lynch them, but Spider-Ham used his powers to rescue them and, following Sitting Duck's plan, goaded the bikers to leave the town. Once they were outside the town, they turned into elderly people with no way to come back to the town, and even their bikes broke. They were suddenly lost in the desert.

+History:
+The Silencers invaded the Macro Science Museum to steal the museum's micro-fusion generator during a demonstration of the F.A.C.A.D.E. armor. They shut down the power with an electromagnetic pulse, then attacked the generator's guards, beating them badly and stuffing them in a closet. They were soon discovered by the vigilantes Spider-Man, Black Cat, and Gambit. The Black Cat slashed the female Silencer's suit with his vibra-claws; the resulting feedback knocked the Silencer out. Spider-Man's spider-sense alerted him to another Silencer behind him, who he knocked out with a headbutt. Another Silencer threatened to destroy the generator unless they were allowed to escape, but Gambit followed his voice and hit him with a charged playing card. The remaining Silencer grabbed Mike Wilson, the museum's curator, who had just stumbled upon the battle and took him hostage. However, Spider-Man cross-polarized two incompatible wires on an incapacitated Silencer, creating a disruptive counterpulse through the Silencers' mutual camouflage fields. The remaining Silencer was rendered visible, and Wilson elbowed him in the head, knocking him out. Spider-Man webbed all four Silencers up and left them for the police.

The first of them was Sibylla, and her spirit survived for centuries to choice new Sibyls, until the last one, Thaleia, went crazy and committed suicide, but Apollo blocked her spirit inside her body, because the prophecy of the Black Oracle hadn't happened so far, and the prophecy stated that three Sibyls should be necessary to stop the threat. Thaleia and Sibylla waited for further centuries, until Apollo warned them the Black Oracle was going to arrive, so Sibylla mentally called Clea to pose as the third Sibyl to defend Earth from the menace coming from Earth-8146. While the three women casted their spell to close the portal that would have let the invaders right in their reality, Doctor Strange protected them from the evil wizard Xennus.; With her job done, both Sibylla and Thaleia's body crumbled away, and the temple collapsed.

+History:
+The Sinister Six was formed by Doc Ock and recruited Sandman, Shocker, Vulture, Rhino and Electro. Each member of the six once fought against Spider-Man and was defeated. All of them were imprisoned in New York State Prison, where each stayed for a series of times. All of them held a grudge against the wall-crawler, but for different reasons. Doctor Octopus contacted Electro, who was not incarcerated, and they concocted an escape plan to lead Doc Ock and select other villains out of the prison in order to team-up on their hated enemy. Electro succeeded in turning off security for the cells of Sandman, Rhino, Vulture, and Doc himself. They all therefore escaped, Ock leading the villains out of the prison, where Vulture, Shocker, and Doc Ock received their super-villain paraphernalia from Hammerhead and went into the city to lure and attack Spider-man. Spider-Man.; The team of six beat Spider-Man, but he escaped after realizing that his previous strategies wouldn't work. Going to bed that night, he wished that he could wake up tomorrow and see the Six back behind bars.; Unknowingly, the black alien suit took over his body as he slept and met the Sinister Six. The symbiote acting as Spider-Man defeats the six single handily utilizing both the new features available in the symbiote suit, and the Six's own talents against each other. Peter later awoke tired and late in the day to find his wish had been granted.; The Daily Bugle reported the Sinister Six has been captured, and his own byline below photos of the battle stared him in the face. Spider-Man realized the symbiote suit was "wearing his body" and was horrified.; In "Reinforcement," the Master Planner (secretly Dr. Octopus) reforms the team with himself and Shocker replaced by Mysterio and Kraven the Hunter.; The team uses an android stand-in for Mysterio and illusion of Vulture as Rhino and Sandman escape. Kraven busts out Electro from Ravencroft, but Dr. Octopus was unwilling to join feigning an unwillingness to fool the Ravencroft staff. Electro and Vulture attack the skating rink near the town's Christmas tree, causing Spider-Man to lure them away.; After taking them out, Sandman and Rhino attack. Upon driving them to the pier, Spider-Man doused Sandman with a fire hydrant and froze due to the weather and then sent Rhino into the icy water. Mysterio and Kraven then catch Spider-Man off-guard by placing holograms of Dr. Octopus and Shocker, then attacking him themselves.; Upon hitting Kraven's face with a perfume bottle, Spider-Man is attacked by Mysterio's technological Homunculis. Kraven accidentally gives away Mysterio's robot duplicate, which was about to explode. Spider-Man then saves a nearby Santa Claus and Elf as Kraven is knocked out by the explosion and webbed up. Upon trapping and making sure it's the real Mysterio, Spider-Man tries to interrogate him to find out who the Master Planner really is. Mysterio is taken into custody, Tinkerer helps the rest of the team to escape.; ==Line-Ups==; First Incarnation:; Dr. Octopus (leader), Sandman, Shocker, Vulture, Electro, Rhino; Second Incarnation; Sandman, Vulture, Electro, Rhino, Mysterio, Kraven the Hunter

When Spider-Man began killing criminals and went as far as threaten J. Jonah Jameson to stop smearing him, Jameson decided to hire Spider-Man's enemies and form the Sinister Six as he considered Spider-Man a greater threat than them. The group decided not to make a move until Kraven the Hunter formed a plan. Doctor Octopus planned to kill his fellow criminals as he didn't trust them but was then killed by Eddie Brock who stated that he would be the one to kill Spider-Man.; Eddie then took Doctor Octopus' place among the Sinister Six as he wanted revenge against Spider-Man for what he believed was his ruined life. The Sinister Six lured Spider-Man into a remote area instead of the city so other superheroes weren't drawn into the conflict by sending in the Beetle to feed Spider-Man information. When Spider-Man arrived, Mysterio covered the area with illusions while providing his teammates with glasses that filtered out the illusions. However, Spider-Man hid underground and launched a sneak attack. He killed Mysterio and then killed Rhino. Eddie tried attacking, but he was kicked away by Spider-Man. When Electro attacked Spider-Man, he smothered the villain with his black suit's biomass. Then Jameson attacked Spider-Man with a remotely-piloted Spider-Slayer Mark V and shoved him into a burning barn. Jameson was about to kill Spider-Man, but Spider-Man convinced him to help him remove the black suit that was controlling him. Kraven the Hunter created an explosion in the barn in a final attempt to kill Spider-Man. Kraven thought Spider-Man was dead when the Spider-Slayer emerged while carrying him. Then Jameson clubbed Kraven in the head and got a still-alive Spider-Man to safety.

Otto went to upgrade his tentacles while Norman waited for Avengers along with an old enemy Spider-Man.; The Sandman attacked the heroes, but in the end the heroes used a trick and neutralized the villain with a fire hose. Going past the entrance, they were met by a Goblin who teased them while they fought the prisoners in the raft.; Norman made it all the way to the two surviving cells of the Six, Electro and Venom ,eventually Max fell, but was ready to continue the fight , however, Brock, with the help of his Symbiote absorbed some of Dillon's power, thereby removing the ally from the structure, threw him out, and fought with the alliance.; Moving further into the prison, they fight young heroes under the control of Mysterio. After the smoke's actions are over, the "kids heroes" help the Alliance defeat Quentin. After the battle, the Master of Illusions still lost; Having reached Doc Ock, who hastily completed the upgrade of his tentacles, he began to fight. In the middle of the battle, Otto drops the heroes, waiting for them in the karedor, where Otto with renewed tentacles, which are increased in length and have lasers in the center of the fingers, continues. As a result, through joint efforts, the alliance defeated the more "Superior" Octavius.; Frustrated by Octavius's failure, Norman reveals that he was in the raft for the Time Stone, using it he returns the traitorous Venom to the state where he did not form an alliance with the heroes. After the effects of the stone on Venom wore off, Osborn continued the fight. drops a stone at the end of the battle but catches it by repeating the moment of catching the stone several times, seeing a vision stuck in a time loop before being pulled into a time portal and seeing a vision of the future where the Black Order has brought Thanos all the Stones, having seemingly destroyed all of his opposition with their power. Star-Lord then took the Stone from the shell-shocked Goblin. Thus, five members of the Sinister Six suffered, in addition to the deprivation of one member, defeat and a term in prison.

+Reality: Earth-11964
+History:
+Kraven the Hunter came to Governors Island, where a spidery figure has been rumored to be sighted. As he prowled the grounds, he spotted a potential threat and attacked who turned out to be Electro. Deflecting Kraven's attack, Electro pointed to the Vulture, Doctor Octopus, Rhino, and Lizard. Doctor Octopus stated that he lured Kraven to the island in the hopes of teaming up to hunt down Spider-Man, but Kraven refused until Doc Ock pointed out that they could find Spider-Man first. Begrudgingly agreeing to join them, Kraven led the Sinister Six towards the abandoned mansion. Doctor Octopus sent the Vulture to do aerial reconnaissance, and he returned reporting that he saw no signs of life. Doctor Octopus split the party to surround the mansion and cut off any avenues of escape, Kraven was paired with Electro. Entering the mansion and illuminating a passage with a bolt of electricity, Electro was shocked to see an empty suit of Goblin Armor suspended from webbing. Spotting a nearby skull gnawed clean of flesh and with the top bitten off, Kraven realized what happened to the Green Goblin and pulled out his hunting knives as a towering shadow loomed from behind them. A pair of white eyespots glared at them as the white spider emblem of Spider-Man's black suit emerged from the darkness, and a fanged maw opened in a ravenous roar.; Kraven and Electro recoiled at the sight of the hulking black and white monster crushing a pipe above them, a serpentine tongue snaking between its fanged jaws. Electro panicked and fired off a bolt of electricity, narrowly missing Kraven and causing the monster to flee. Furious, Kraven grabbed Electro by the shoulders and berated him, snapping that the monster was Spider-Man. As Kraven left to follow the monster's trail, Doctor Octopus arrived and asked what they were talking about. Electro blurted out that they had found a monster that Kraven thought to be Spider-Man, Kraven grimly insisting that it was. Stating that he trusted Kraven more than Electro, Doctor Octopus asked which way their quarry had fled. As Kraven said it was headed to the roof, Doctor Octopus nonchalantly said that the Vulture was more than capable of holding his own.; Arriving on the roof, the three villains found the Vulture in the claws of the monstrous Spider-Man, restrained by semi-amorphous tentacles extending from its body and crying for help as it tried to bite off his head. With a scream of fury, Doctor Octopus launched himself at the monstrous Spider-Man and tackled it off the roof. As the monstrous Spider-Man overpowered him through sheer strength, Doctor Octopus panicked and called out for help; Kraven leaping off the roof and plunging his hunting knife into its back. Shrieking in rage and pain, the monster destabilized into flailing black tendrils, exposing Spider-Man. Coiling tendrils around Doctor Octopus' throat and trying to strangle him, the black ooze began to engulf Spider-Man once more as he begged his enemies to help him.; Kraven realized that Spider-Man was the key to understanding the monster and moved to cut him free of the tendrils to no avail, as it regenerated as soon as he slashed it. Drawing a comparison to the Lernean Hydra of Greek mythology, Kraven wondered if it had the same weakness and called out to Electro to set the grass around the monster ablaze. Electro reluctantly did so, forcing the monster to relinquish its grasp on Spider-Man. Electro rejoiced just as the Rhino arrived and asked what's going on. Before Electro could reply, the monster furiously ensnared them with its tendrils and roared at them. Looking up to see that the symbiote had captured the other members of the Sinister Six and was about to devour them and realizing that Spider-Man had died, Kraven called out to the symbiote. Approaching the symbiote, Kraven offered himself as its new host, saying that the rest of the world could be their prey before amending his statement to include the other members of the Sinister Six, suggesting they form a pack to hunt together. The symbiote accepted and bonded to them, and the Sinister Six were reborn as the Symbiote Six.; Arriving to this reality on a quest to purge itself of weaknesses, the Carnage Symbiote of Earth-616 killed the Venomized Electro, absorbing his powers. It was then confronted by the Symbiote Six, who declared their intent to avenge their fallen comrade. Carnage-616 mocked the five remaining members of the Symbiote Six, saying it found them so pathetic it would not even absorb their powers like it did Electro's. Deciding to test its new Hell-Mark, Carnage summoned the Monsters of Evil and sicced them on the Symbiote Six, easily overpowering them. Carnage then slaughtered Venomized Lizard, Vulture, Kraven and Doctor Octopus, before departing their reality. Venomized Rhino, the sole surviving member of the Symbiote Six, volunteered to join Agent Venom's Symbiote Squad in exchange for a shot at avenging his fallen comrades.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Underground
+Equipment: No known equipment.
+Weapons: Assorted guns.
+Transportation: Various aircraft constructed by Graymalkin.
+History:
+===Early Years===; In order to understand the current era's threats and obtain finances, time-traveling mutant Cable formed a mercenary group called the Wild Pack. Wild Pack was mostly contracted to Mr. Tolliver, an arms dealer and used Cable's orbiting space station, Graymalkin, as a means of teleporting, or "body sliding", in and out of situations. After a conflict with Silver Sable (who already had a group called the Wild Pack), the junior member of the team, Kane suggested the name Six Pack, while drinking a beer. On a mission in Afghanistan, Six Pack learned that Stryfe, a former enemy of Cable's, was in charge of Mr. Tolliver's opium routes and they were contracted to take out the Soviet armored carriers that were in this route's way. After a brief battle, Stryfe and A.D.A.M. Unit Zero teleported away. Cable scrapped the mission, much to the disliking of the team. Angry, Mr. Tolliver sent agents to kill Six Pack, but they were defeated. On another mission, Six Pack invaded a Hydra research facility in search of a stolen component. Once inside, Hammer accidentally triggered a fail-safe and Baron von Strucker's image appeared everywhere threatening to kill Six Pack, but they quickly retrieved the device and body slid out. Six Pack later found-out that they were working for A.I.M.. Feeling used, Six Pack decided to go after Stryfe in Uruguay. After entering an underground bunker, Six Pack battled their way into a control room, where Hammer began to download secret information from Stryfe onto a CD. While waiting for the disk to finish downloading, Stryfe teleported behind Kane and grabbed his neck, demanding Hammer to give him the CD. Before Hammer could give Stryfe the CD, Cable shot him from behind. Stryfe grabbed the disk telekinetically and set-off a self-destruct on the bunker. Cable teleported away, leaving Six Pack to fend for themselves. Under the rubble, Hammer became paralyzed from the neck down and Kane's arms and legs were severed.; While searching for X-Force, Domino found Grizzly and Hammer and, at the same time, Kane, Cable, and G.W. Bridge had reconciled (after Kane learned Stryfe and Cable's history and spent time in the late 37th-early 39th century, where they enhanced his cybernetic prosthetics). The two groups met at X-Force's, Cable's new team of teenage mutants, Camp Verde base.; ===Reformation===; Years later, while working for S.H.I.E.L.D., G.W. Bridge reorganized a new team to to aggressively reconnoiter Providence, Cable's floating island utopia, but Cable showed them the city and offered them to stay. Following their failed attempt to defeat Cable, G.W. and Hammer were placed in suspended animation, while Domino "converted" to Cable's side. Solo, Constrictor and Anaconda were hired by Cable and battled the X-Men. After Cable was defeated, by the Silver Surfer, he lobotomized himself and went into hiding. Six Pack found Cable at his Safehouse 14, but got trapped in his mind, which was quickly fading away. However, Six Pack and Cable were eventually saved by Deadpool and the Fixer and returned to their bodies.; Constrictor eventually abandoned the group, and was replaced by Deadpool. Later, the Six Pack was hired by the American Government to commit acts of terrorism against the fictional country of Rumekistan, a utopian nation Cable ruled.; The objective was to taint Cable's reputation in a negative light, so as to rumble his secure reign over the country.

+Codename: The Deadly Foes of Spider-Man; The Lethal Foes of Spider-Man
+First appearance: Amazing Spider-Man Vol 1 280
+Created by: Tom DeFalco; Ron Frenz; Brett Breeding
+Reality: Earth-616
+Notes: When Boomerang became the leader of the Sinister "Six" alongside the Beetle, the Shocker, Overdrive and the Speed Demon, the Shocker suggested going back to the name the Sinister Syndicate, but the idea was quickly squelched with the Speed Demon saying that "the Sinister Syndicate were losers!"
+History:
+===Origins===; Patterned after the conglomeration of Spider-Man's deadliest foes who called themselves the Sinister Six, the Sinister Syndicate originally was formed by the super-villain Abner Jenkins, a.k.a. the Beetle. The original incarnation of the group included the Beetle, Hydro-Man, the Rhino, Boomerang and the Speed Demon, who collectively gathered together under the Beetle's leadership. Unlike the Sinister Six, which was formed mainly to destroy Spider-Man, the Sinister Syndicate was formed to act as a mercenary group who sold their services to the highest bidder.; The Syndicate successfully prevented Spider-Man and Silver Sable from capturing famed assassin Jason Macendale, then known as Jack O'Lantern.; ===The Deadly Foes of Spider-Man===; The group, now including the Shocker and getaway driver / Boomerang's girlfriend, Leila Davis, were the focus of the 1991 four-issue miniseries The Deadly Foes of Spider-Man. The miniseries focused upon the group's break-up due to the Beetle's jealousy towards Boomerang and his attempts to usurp control of it. The Beetle eventually betrayed Boomerang by allowing him to be caught during a robbery and then convincing him to use the Beetle's lawyer, not knowing that the Beetle had previously instructed his lawyer to throw the trial in order to make sure that Boomerang would be convicted.; As the Beetle forged an alliance with the Kingpin, the Speed Demon began a relationship with Leila while the Rhino located a scientist who could remove his suit, which was grafted to his body at the time. The scientist, however, owed the Kingpin a large sum of money in unpaid gambling debts, resulting in the Beetle killing the scientist. As the Shocker helped Boomerang escape from jail, Leila betrayed the Speed Demon and revealed her true purpose for dating Boomerang and involving herself with the Syndicate: Leila was the widow of the super-villain Anthony Davis, a.k.a. the Ringer. The Ringer had been kidnapped years earlier by the Beetle, who then strapped a (what was ultimately revealed to be phony) bomb to his chest, forcing him to fight Spider-Man. The Beetle watched through a camera hidden inside the "bomb" in order for him to observe Spider-Man in action. When Spider-Man defeated the Ringer and exposed the Beetle's scheme, the Ringer was humiliated and branded a loser by his fellow super-villains, which ended in his death at the hands of the original Scourge of the Underworld. Leila sought to kill the Beetle in order to avenge her husband's death.; In the end, a massive showdown ensued between the members with Leila escaping with Boomerang and the Rhino, while the Beetle went to jail and his loyal members the Speed Demon and Hydro-Man made their own escapes.; ===Thunderbolts===; The Beetle would go on to join the Thunderbolts, assuming the identity of MACH-1. However, his act of murder from The Deadly Foes of Spider-Man would cripple the group's attempts to go legit once the Beetle and his new teammates broke free from Baron Zemo's control. The Beetle would be forced to surrender himself to the authorities and plead guilty to murder. Meanwhile, Leila Davis would resurface as the new Beetle, piloting a massive mecha-suit that Justin Hammer had built for Jenkins for when he escaped prison. However, the suit would be Leila's doom, as the villain Graviton crushed the suit with his gravity powers, killing Leila as a result.; When the series was revived in late 2004, the Speed Demon ended up joining the Thunderbolts. However, to his horror, he discovered that his friend in the Sinister Syndicate the Beetle had truly gone legit and, as such, came into constant conflict with Jenkins due to the Speed Demon's utter lack of morals and his willingness to sell out his new teammates to the various evil forces that the group fought.; Years later Boomerang would join the Thunderbolts; however, unlike with the Speed Demon, no mention has been made of the Beetle's betrayal of Boomerang in The Deadly Foes of Spider-Man.; ===The Initiative===; Half of the Syndicate (Hydro-Man, the Shocker and Boomerang) reunited and fought Spider-Man. The battle was interrupted by Komodo and War Machine. They were later apprehended by the Initiative's Scarlet Spiders.

+History:
+===Origins===; In the early years of their career, the Fantastic Four defeated a group of Skrull spy agents. Mister Fantastic, used their own technology to brainwash them into believing that they are Earth cows, and trapped them in that form for life. The Skrull Cows at one point regained their memories, but one of them is later killed. The remaining three Skrulls were forced to shift into cows and hypnotized into believing they actually were cows, to live out their days grazing in a pasture outside King's Crossing, Vermont.; The milk from the Skrull Cows had affected the small dairy town. The Fantastic Four got involved due to Johnny Storm dating one of the residents. They helped the town neutralize the threat.; ===Team Formation===; Skrull Cows were, by accident, sent to a slaughterhouse and butchered as meat. Skrull Cow meat, when eaten by people, transferred the Skrull's adaptable DNA code into the human's cells, resulting in a condition called Skrullovoria Induced Skrullophobia.; The infected individuals gained the ability to shape-shift like a Skrull, but also developed an intense irrational fear and hatred of the Skrull. Only a small number of people were infected, and many did not survive the initial stages of infection. There are several people whose effects proved slower than others (but technically still dying) were recruited into a team by a man named Ryder. Ryder was also victim of the syndrome, as he increasingly had irrational impulses to destroy the Skrull. The Skrull Kill Krew normally attacked the Skrull by blowing them away with large high-powered guns.The Skrull Kill Krew's desire to kill Skrulls not only stopped them from killing people but led them to fight other well known individuals, such as Baron Von Strucker and Captain America.; ===Secret Invasion===; During the Skrull Invasion, Ryder and Riot met up with Delroy Garrett Jr., the most recent 3-D Man. Learning from him that the Initiative had been compromised by Skrulls, the trio set out to destroy the Skrulls on each team, making ad-hoc members of the remaining super-heroes from each team.; ==Notable Skrull Kill Krew members==; Ryder - is the leader and founder of the group. He of course has the ability to shapeshift, with enhanced strength and reflexes. Ryder also has the ability to teleport. He has a habit of carrying loads of weapons and firearms. Using his abilities he likes to alter his appearance so his hair is changed into snake like tentacles. It is possible that he is one of the original Skrull Cows, with no memory of his past life.; Riot- (Heidi Sladkin); Catwalk- (Kimberly Dee); Dice- (Rob Fortune); Moonstomp- (Unrevealed); 3-D Man - (Delroy Garrett Jr.) inherited his powers from the original 3-D Man, a 1950's anti-Skrull hero. The new 3D Man had the ability to recognize shape-shifted Skrulls when viewed through his glasses.

+History:
+===Serpent in the Garden===; As a psychic ghost, Madelyne Pryor lacked a physical body and true existence. In order to appropriate and possess the corpse of her genetic template, Jean Grey, which was powerful enough to house her essence, she assembled a Sisterhood to fend off the X-Men, who had recently relocated to San Francisco. Her first recruit was Martinique Wyngarde, one of the Mastermind sisters. Next, the extradimensional mercenary pirate Chimera was enlisted. At the Body Shoppe, in Mojoverse, the sorceress Spiral and her creation, Lady Deathstrike, were approached and offered membership. Finally, Regan Wyngarde, the Lady Mastermind twin, was contacted and rounded up the all-female team of criminals. To ensure loyalty, Pryor promised her allies the possibility of resurrecting their deceased loved ones.; Parallel to her group of villainesses, Pryor, as the Red Queen, manipulated the actions of the anti-mutant gang known as the Hellfire Cult and psychically commanded by an enslaved Empath. The former student of the X-Men Pixie was brutalized by the Hellfire Cult, prompting the X-Men to combat their operations. When raiding the Cult's hideout, the X-Men dismantled their activities. Pryor hid from the leaders of the X-Men, her ex-husband Cyclops and his partner and Empath's former mentor, Emma Frost. To torment Cyclops, Pryor telepathically engaged with him in a sexual exchange impersonating Frost. Ultimately, he recognized her and confirmed her resurrection. Pixie knocked out and blinded Empath, who was taken into the X-Men's custody.; The Sisterhood made themselves known in Tokyo when desecrating the grave of Psylocke, to acquire her original body in which Kwannon had succumbed due to the Legacy Virus. Pryor wished to resurrect Psylocke to test her soul transfer ritual before possessing Jean Grey's cadaver. By chance, the X-Man Domino witnessed the abduction and alarmed Wolverine. Psylocke was revived and forced to serve Pryor. To gain access to her prize, Pryor needed a beacon, namely a lock of Jean Grey's hair which Wolverine possessed. In order to secure it, the Sisterhood invaded the X-Men's home, Graymalkin Industries. Following a brutal confrontation with the X-Men and success in their attempt, they teleported away. Cyclops led the male X-Men to Westchester, at the ruins of the Xavier Institute to stop Pryor from accessing the body of Jean Grey. Emma Frost led a team of female X-Men to the Sisterhood's hideout in San Francisco. Defeated, the Sisterhood escaped with Spiral's assistance. Psylocke was mortally wounded by Dazzler, being revived in Kwannon's body freed of any external corruption. Ultimately, Madelyne Pryor's soul dissipated since Domino had previously replaced Jean Grey's corpse with a decoy, ruining her body transfer ritual.; ===Muertas===; Heir of an empire from a drug-dealing business, Ana Cortés wished to experience the exhilarating adventures of a super-villain. She contracted the cyborg assassin Reiko to provide her with the programming of the killing machine Lady Deathsrike. Sharing body and soul with Deathstrike, Cortés started her operations. Wanting additional resources, she wished to retrieve the body of the Omega Sentinel from the Jean Grey School, but could not defeat the X-Men. Instead, Reiko acquired information about Arkea, an alien artificial intelligence the X-Men had recently subdued and kept stored within their arsenal. Obsessed with securing Arkea, the new Lady Deathstrike had her private enforcer, Typhoid Mary, join her mission. Typhoid furtively collected the sample of Arkea, but as Arkea's nemesis, Sublime, detected, it had been rendered inert. In search for reinforcements, Deathstrike enlisted help from the Enchantress. In exchange of assistance, Deathstrike promised Typhoid the reintegration of her split personalities and the Enchantress the return of her powers. The trio of criminals acquired the meteorite that originally had brought Arkea to Earth, officially forming a new Sisterhood.; In Dubai, Reiko met the Sisterhood to weaponize Arkea into cybernetic upgrades for Lady Deathstrike. Upon establishing contact, Reiko was supplanted by the Arkea consciousness, who seized control over the Sisterhood from Cortés. Seeking revenge against the X-Men, Arkea forced the Sisterhood to become her pawns. To attack the X-Men, Arkea activated Sentinels all over the globe to cover the Sisterhood's escape from a direct conflict. In order to destroy the X-Men, Arkea planned to revive two of their greatest nemeses, Madelyne Pryor and Selene. This deeply concerned Cortés, who saw her original plans erode in front of her, as such, she attempted suicide. The Enchantress performed a ritual to bring Selene back from the dead, while Cortés had her body replaced by Madelyne Pryor's. In the end, the Enchantress was knocked out by the perfect mutant Monet, Typhoid was driven into insanity by Psylocke, while the leader of the X-Men Storm made a deal with Pryor and Selene for them to abandon Arkea peacefully. Alone, Arkea was subdued and killed by Karima Shapandar, the former Omega Sentinel who had her systems corrupted by her. The deactivated body of Reiko became occupied by Lady Deathstrike.

+Weapons: A concealed Electronic Detonator, and a low velocity thermal bomb
+Transportation: Their personal Water Tower Ship, and the Mother Ship it interacted with.
+Trivia: Queen Veranke referenced the Skrull Cows in Secret Invasion Vol 1 6. It seemed she, understandably, held a grudge towards the Fantastic Four for turning her people into cows.
+History:
+===Preface===; "Skrull Cows" or "Cow Skrulls" is a term commonly used to commonly refer to Skrulls that have been turned into cows on the planet Earth. It has been specifically used to reference three particular Skrulls, however there are literally thousands of Skrull Cows that have existed.; ===First Record of Skrull Cows===; The first recorded instance of Skrulls being turned into cows incidentally was the result of time travel. In the year 1776, a group of Skrull subversives came to the planet Earth during a period of time in which the pre-United States of America colonies were seeking its independence from British rule. A Skrull spy was sent to pose as Benjamin Franklin to ensure passages about slavery remained in the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights. The intent was that if the human race was accustomed to slavery, then it would be easier for the Skrulls to enslave them. However this plan was thwarted by the Fantastic Four, heroes from the 21st Century, who had travelled back in time to this era to locate Chrono-Anchor that was lost in this era. Their leader Reed Richards uncovered the Skrulls, and used hypnosis to make them believe they were cows, a trick that Richards used on Skrulls in his own time many years earlier in his career.; The fate of these Skrull Cows are unknown, however it could go to explain why there is a large population of Skrull cows in modern times.; ===Invasion===; A quartet of Skrulls posed as the Fantastic Four and publicly wreaked destruction and havoc in order to force the real Fantastic Four to fall out of favor with their government and be eliminated, leaving Earth open for invasion. It has been revealed that one of these early Skrull invaders was related to Emperor Dorrek VII.; On the run from the military, the real Fantastic Four were able to trick the Skrulls into revealing their hideout as well as their master plan. Leaving them subdued, Reed, Sue, Johnny, and Ben traveled to their mother-ship via their Water Tower Ship. There, Reed used clippings from "Strange Tales" and "Journey Into Mystery" to fool the scout Captain into believing the planet was too fortified by giant monsters for an invasion to be successful. Pretending to 'sacrifice their lives' so that the mother-ship could return home while leaving him behind, Reed was given the Skrulls' highest medal of bravery before the invasion forces left.; Back on Earth, the government still saw the Fantastic Four as a threat and sent police with them back to the Skrull quartet's hideout. There, three of the four had broken free of their bindings and attacked, shape-shifting into different monsters in front of the police and proving they had been posing as the Fantastic Four. The police chief left the aliens in the care of Mister Fantastic since they couldn't be held in any normal prison anyway.; The remaining fourth member was thought to have been sent home with the invasion fleet, according to Reed. The other three Skrull cows were let to graze in the town of King's Crossing where the farmers allowed them to breed with other cows, creating Skrull-Cow hybrids.; ===Kree-Skrull War===; Sometime later the centuries old Kree-Skrull War was reignited and the lone Skrull that escaped the Fantastic Four in their first encounter with the Skrulls began working with the Super-Skrull who had been exiled following his last failure. The pair used a hyper-beam to revive the Skrulls on Earth who were hypnotized into thinking they were cows. They then joined the Super-Skrull in a plan that K'lrt hoped would win him the favour of his Emperor and win the hand of Anelle in marriage in a bid to gain control of the empire. When the Avenger's battle with Ronan became public knowledge one of the Skrull spies took the place of US Presidential Candidate H. Warren Craddock using his political position to spread xenophobia toward the Kree in general, Mar-Vell in particular and to besmirch the reputation of the Avengers. He also formed the Commission of Alien affairs to begin witch hunts to find aliens hiding among the population. When the Avengers helped Mar-Vell go into hiding this turned the public against them. They were also brought in for questioning by the commission under "Haddock". Meanwhile, Super-Skrull disguised as Carol Danvers brought Mar-Vell to an inconspicuous farm that functioned as their safe house and ensnared him into a trap. The remaining three Skrulls then posed as founding Avengers Captain America, Thor, and Iron Man, and ordered the current roster to disband.; Going to reconvene with Mar-Vell, the Avengers were attacked by the three Skrulls, who then captured the Scarlet Witch and her brother Quicksilver, but the Vision escaped. He brought the real founding members of the Avengers with him later, while the Super-Skrull -- posing as Carol Danvers -- tried to trick Mar-Vell into building a Omni-Wave Projector a communications device which could also double as a devastating weapon. Mar-Vell saw through the ploy, but this did not stop Kl'rt from knocking him out and escaping the arriving Avengers, who bested the three Skrull spies. The three captured Skrulls were once more forced to resume thinking they were cows, where they eventually ended up in the town of King's Crossing.; ===Food Contamination===; What happened next to the three original Skrull cows becomes mired in facts and later revelations. It has been stated that following the defeat of the Skrull cows on Earth they were turned over to the Alien Activities Commission, who forced them to be turned back into cows and sent to the slaughter-house. This Skrull-beef ended up in the food supply and was consumed by various members of the human population. Further, it has been stated that the original Skrull cows were accidentally mixed in with a King's Crossing farmer's milking herd, and were milked as Dairy cows. Their "milk", which was part of them shape-shifted into milk, caused the people of the town to partially mutate, gaining the Skrulls' shape-shifting abilities and warlike tendencies. Those who drank the "milk" forced others to drink it until the entire town was affected.; However, in more recent times a Skrull has surfaced and had been undergoing psychiatric care from Doc Samson who claims to have been one of the original three Skrull cows. Further confusing the matter is the fact that the Skrull cows were allowed to breed with normal cows creating Skrull-Cow hybrids, and there is further question to the fate of the Skrull cows of 1776 and how they may have impacted the Skrull-Cow hybrid situation. Thus, it is difficult to say with any certainty which of the "original" three Skrull Cows may or may not have been slaughtered or involved with the tainting of the milk supply in King's Crossing.; Whatever the case, eventually, Sharon Selleck, a friend of the Fantastic Four, was captured there when her car broke down. She had a milk allergy, and was able to resist the effects of the "milk", sneaking out of town to call for help. By the time the Fantastic Four arrived to help her, the town had become a super-efficient farming community, erecting massive manufacturing plants to produce more "milk", and using it to water their local crops. Luckily, before arriving, Mr. Fantastic had recognized the location as where the cow Skrulls had been sent to, and had devised an antidote to the Skrull infection. The entire town was cured and the crops burned. The only lasting effect of the milk was that everyone was in much better health and had not aged in six years. Not all of the "milk" produced by these beings was destroyed or rendered inert. A truck full of containers was seen being delivered to Camp Merl, a US Army Depot. However its effect on the soldiers there or anyone else remains to be revealed.; ===Skrull Kill Krew===; While it has been stated that the Skrull meat from the slaughtered cows would cause mutagenic changes in humans who consumed it, there have only been five documented cases of this: Ryder, Moonstomp, Rob Fortune, Heidi Sladkin, and Kimberly Dee. By consuming the beef, they were endowed with Skrull shape-shifting powers as well as other super-human abilities. They became the Skrull Kill Krew and began a campaign to slaughter all Skrulls that were currently active on Earth.; Over the years the Cow/Skrull hybrids began shaking off their cow forms and adopting human ones and entering into human society which they greatly embraced, particularly the entertainment industry. Apparently, these Skrulls in hiding were known to the United States government and an pact was made between them. During the Skrulls' so-called Secret Invasion of Earth, the Skrull-Cows used the media to boost human morale to fight back the Skrull invasion. However the presence of this race of Skrull/Cow hybrids was soon discovered by Ryder of the Skrull Kill Krew. He and his teammate Riot later discovered an Los Angeles nightclub full of Cow-Skrulls that were slaughtering the human patrons in horrific slaughterhouse scenarios and wiped them out. However, it appeared that murderous Skrull-Cows were among the minority as when they next uncovered a "Reverse Rodeo" where humans were willing participants in rodeo style activities. Despite this, the Kill Krew slaughtered all the Skrulls there.; A café of Skrull-Cows were also slaughtered by the Krew. They followed by slaughtering the Skrull cast and crew on the "Stampede" web series. This in turn led to retaliation from the Skrull-Cows who attacked the Kill Krew's home, but were all eliminated as well. This caused the Skrull-Cows to use the media to pressure the government to do something about the Skrull Kill Krew or face repercussions. This prompted HAMMER director Norman Osborn to travel to LA to meet with the Skrull-Cow elite. However the meeting was attacked by the Skrull Kill Krew who slaughtered all the elite in company and fled.; ===Cadre K===; Cadre K landed on Earth in Midland, South Dakota or in North Dakota and established themselves as cowboys, purchasing any stock of Skrull-cows (who were somehow evolving into "something else") they could find to take them out of the food chain and protect them into the Sagittarian Farms / Ranch.; ===Skrull Duck===; It was later revealed a fifth Skrull was present and not hypnotized into a cow but Reed Richards changed him into a duck. Tara Tam eventually ate the duck infected her with Skrullovoria Induced Skrullophobia granting her shape-shifting powers similar to the alien species. She wouldn't learn the origin of her powers until the Skrull Kill Krew came to recruit her but she didn't join them but she traveled to New York where she met Howard the Duck.

+History:
+The Six Big Men was a gang comprised of six known members all specializing in a different field of criminal enterprise. There was Dutch Hansen who specialized in extorting protection money from night clubs; Trigger Bolo, who controlled a protection racket for retail delivery companies; Mike Malone who controlled all the illegal gambling dens; Gus Ronson who extorted local restaurants; John Dillon who ran a racket on the subway system; and Steve Enkel who sought to influence politicians, judges and juries. They all answered to "The Big Boss", who was secretly the prominent Doctor Horace Lang who sent his orders through his female companion Lil.; The group of criminals had New York City in a literal strangle hold amassing a great deal of wealth in the process. The law was unable to stop their operations due to their influence and ability to buy off witnesses, juries and judges. The gang was going to split all their ill gotten gains seven ways amongst the six primary members, the Big Boss and Lil. However, Lang had other ideas and attempted to orchestrate the deaths of his six associates so that he would not have to split the loot.; To this end, Lang, pretending to be a civic minded citizen gathered a bunch of like minded individuals who were then sworn in by a Mayor La Guardia as special investigators. They sought to hire the costumed hero known as the Angel to hunt down and eliminate each of the racket bosses. The Angel had already taken up the job and made his presence known, leaving Doctor Lang to believe that his plan was coming to fruition.; The Angel first went after Ronson after he was acquitted of crimes thanks to a crooked jury. Unaware that the Angel had sneaked into the back seat of his car, Ronson was strangled to death by the vigilante. Going after Mike Malone next, he landed a killing blow on the crook. Witnessing this John Dillon attempted to flee the Angel, jumping out a window and falling to his death. Lil provided the Angel with the location of Trigger Bolo, but the caped crime-fighter was captured by his thugs. Before Bolo could mow the Angel down, however, Lil ordered him and Steve Enkel to take the Angel out into the woods to be executed. There Lil double crossed Bolo and Enkel, freeing the Angel and in the ensuing fire fight Bolo and Enkel shot each other.; The Angel caught Dutch Hansen next before he could make a deposit of all the stolen loot and slew him as well. Curious about who would go and pick up the loot at the safety deposit box, the Angel staked it out and caught Lil and Doctor Lang in the act of retrieving the money. He captured them and turned over to the authorities, learning of their plot to double cross their colleagues.

+History:
+The Skeletons of the Glowing Death were a group of professional criminals gathered in 1945 in order to stage a series of robberies in the New York area. Their leader was the superintendent of a local powerhouse. With control over the city's electrical grid, the gang created luminescent costumes that made them appear to look like spectral skeletons in the dark. Under the cover of a blackout, the gang would then attack innocent people and store fronts on the streets, gunning down anyone who resisted and collecting their loot.; Their first hit happened in front of Private Steve Rogers and James Buchanan Barnes who failed to stop the crooks from committing their daring robbery. As Captain America and Bucky, the pair went to the local powerhouse where the found the technicians killed. They hid in the shadows as the police arrived with the superintendent who was furious and demanded that police guard the power house while new technicians arrived. To Cap and Bucky's surprise, they learned that the superintendent was the leader and that the new "technicians" arriving were members of the gang and that they were preparing for another hit.; Attacking the crooks, Cap and Bucky were knocked out and tied to a dynamo which the gang leader intended to turn on to electrocute the two heroes to death. Cap managed to struggle his way to the power chord and pull it out with his teeth. Freeing themselves when the dynamo failed to start, Cap and Bucky battled the gang. During the course of the fight, the gang's leader was tossed into a live wire and was electrocuted to death, and the gang soon fell after. By the time the battle was over, the police standing on guard outside had entered and took the gang into custody.

However, other scientists were able to create an imperfect version of the serum. Thus, each of five volunteers were affected differently, with their own unique powers which were very different from Captain America's. Also, their powers weren't permanent, and they were forced to ration their powers with keys. The five volunteers and Captain America formed the Six American Warriors.; The American Six embarked on many adventures. However, when they tried to stop the Red Skull from acquiring a doomsday device, Captain America became trapped in a vortex along with the Skull. After the war ended, the remaining five were ordered to disband.; Fifty years later, the Kingpin tried to acquire the doomsday weapon by hunting down the five warriors and stealing their keys to the doomsday site. The five were subsequently reunited and teamed up with Spider-Man to stop him. When they arrived at the doomsday site, the Kingpin's warrior Chameleon betrayed the crime lord and released his step-father, the Red Skull, from the vortex. The Red Skull continued his doomsday plot, turning his son into Electro. The Six American Warriors and Spider-Man were able to defeat Electro, but Captain America and the Red Skull became re-trapped in the vortex. After, the remaining five warriors disbanded once again.

They "crashed" into Wakanda and made up a story of being captured by Skrulls to trick Ms. Marvel into believing them and help them without suspicion. Then as Ms. Marvel and the Skrull Avengers arrived, they were confronted by Black Panther and his well-prepared Wakandan forces and defenses waiting for them and attacked them. During the battle, Black Panther would have been captured by the Skrull Avengers if not for the arrival of the two real Avengers, Hawkeye and Wasp.; As they fought, Carol couldn't figure out who to trust until the fall of Skrull Thor who was shot by a Wakandan tank while trying to blast Black Panther. After being shot, his true form was revealed and the Skrull Avengers were exposed, with the Black Panther Skrull unmasked. With no choice, the Iron Man Skrull had ordered his team to destroy them all as they charged. Despite their similar powers, the Skrull Avengers were defeated, with Iron Man the last one to fall.; After the battle, their unconscious bodies were piled up.

+The Six-Gun Syndicate were a gang of outlaws that were active during the days of the American Frontier. Their leader was Cash Collins who was smitten by Betty Baxter, the daughter of wealthy rancher Olin Baxter. When Collins came courting for her, Olin Baxter sent Cash Collins away. Furious, Collins then had Betty kidnapped and taken to the gang's hideout. Olin went out looking for his daughter to try and liberate her, crossing paths with Kid Colt. Learning of Olin's plight, Kid Colt agreed to get Betty back for him.; Tracking down the gang, Kid Colt used his status as a wanted outlaw to convince Cash Collins to allow him to join their gang. Colt was taken back to the shack they hid out in and he was introduced to Boots an elderly member of the gang who was charged with keeping watch on Betty. Collins and his men then organized a bank robbery, but Kid Colt managed to avoid participation by making his horse Steel pretend to have a limp. However, Collins did not trust Kid Colt and followed him back to camp. There he caught Kid Colt, and Boots (whom Kid Colt convinced to help) attempting to free Betty. Collins got the drop on them, but agreed to draw cards to wager and see who would take Betty. However, Collins cheated, using an ace up his sleeve to win the match.; Boots spotted this, and when Cash attempted to shoot Kid Colt, the Kid shot the gun from his hand. Kid Colt and Boots then took Betty and fled, however Betty woke up and not understanding what was going on cried for help, drawing the rest of the gang after them. As they fled into the woods, Boots took a fatal gun shot wound and died, convincing Betty of their good intentions. However, Cash soon found them and gut shot Kid Colt. Before he could get away with Betty his prisoner once more, Kid Colt shot Cash right between the eyes killing him. Betty then rushed Kid Colt back to her fathers' home to recover from his injuries.; The fate of the rest of the Six-Gun Syndicate is unknown, however it's unlikely that the group exists, most of their members either disbanded or dead.

+History:
+===Origin===; Millions of years ago, at the conclusion of the Skrull civil war between the three sub-species (Deviant Skrulls, Prime Skrulls, and Eternal Skrulls), after the Prime Skrulls had been exterminated, Sl'gur't the warrior queen of the Deviant Skrulls led her people against the last Eternal Skrull stronghold. When she found the last Eternal Skrull (Kly'bn) who was kneeling at an altar, he persuaded her not to kill him but to let him be their guide and proclaimed his love for her. The two were elevated to godhood because of the truth of his words.; It has not been revealed if there were already Skrull gods before the two or if such gods (e.g. the Skrull Goddess of Love - Zorr'Kiri) came afterwards, and under which circumstances.; The two of them indirectly supported the creation and expansion of the Skrull Empire. They conquered and enslaved the pantheons of the conquered races, numbering nearly 1000 pantheons.; Around 500 years ago, Zorr'Kiri, Skrull Goddess of Love and possibly part of this Pantheon, was murdered by Gorr the God Butcher, and was missed all those years until her body was retrieved by Thor who inquired on Gorr the God Butcher's return.; ===Modern Era===; During the Secret Invasion, the enslaved army of alien gods battled Earth's God Squad. Afterwards Kly'bn and Sl'gur't did battle with them and both were slain. Taking the place of the Skrull gods was the Chaos King who, in the form of Sl'gur't, had killed Sl'gur't who in turn was in the form of Amatsu-Mikaboshi (the Chaos King). When the Chaos King later waged war against the other gods in the Chaos War, Kly'bn was one of the dead gods in her army.

+Created by: Tom Taylor; David López; David Navarrot
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Clones of Wolverine
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile; Formerly:; New York City Sewers
+Equipment: The Sisters were remarkably well-equipped for a group of escaped assassins on the run. However, Laura's attempt to inquire into who was providing them with their gear was stymied by Bellona's continued distrust.; Each of the Sisters wore a unique mask to hide their features. These masks also appear to be armored.; Body armor.; MQ-1B Predator drone.; It was later revealed that all of their equipment was provided by Kimura.
+Weapons: Each of the Sisters appeared to favor different weapons:; Bellona: Combat Knives; Zelda: Assault Rifle; X23_3PAR: Sniper Rifle, Pistol; Gabby: MAC-10
+Transportation: The Sisters were in possession of an armored High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle, equipped with a mounted .50 cal machine-gun turret and an M20 3.5 inch Rocket Launcher.
+Notes: According to All-New Wolverine Vol 1 writer Tom Taylor, Zelda is the eldest of the Sisters, and their Alchemax designations make no indications of their relative ages.; All of the sisters were named by Alchemax, and according to Taylor their "given" names all relate to death.; Bellona was born with oculocutaneous albinism, suggesting flaws existed in the cloning process used by Alchemax, beyond merely lacking Laura's mutation.
+Trivia: According to Taylor, the Sisters are each a deliberate reflection of one stage of Laura's life:; Zelda reflects Laura's icy calm in the face of danger and her tactical abilities.; Bellona represents her rage and impulsiveness.; 3PAR is her fatalism and drive.; Gabby is an embodiment of Laura's lost innocence
+History:
+The Sisters were ten clones of Laura Kinney, created by Alchemax Genetics using samples of her DNA obtained via a thus-far unidentified source. Six of the girls were either killed in the field or by Alchemax during demonstrations, with a couple others dying mysteriously in their cells.; Much like Laura, each were given a numerical designation: the four identified girls were Bellona (X23 1BEL), Zelda (X23 2ZEL), X23 3PAR, and Gabby (X23 4GAB). Zelda, the eldest, was the leader of this group, who managed to escape from Alchemax after discovering that the alterations which rendered them unable to sense pain were also killing them. They subsequently targeted Alchemax's personnel for assassination, which ultimately brought them to Laura's attention.; They first ran directly afoul of Wolverine in Paris, when X23_3PAR attempted to murder Director Robert Chandler's son. Laura foiled the attempt and tried to reason with her, but 3PAR insisted Laura should be helping them, not obstructing them, then subsequently jumped to her death from the top of the Eiffel Tower.; When Laura returned to New York City and confronted Director Chandler regarding the clones, he claimed that they were created to serve as bodyguards for diplomats and humanitarian missions. Afterwards, she returned home to find the youngest of the girls, Gabby, had broken into her apartment. Laura realized that it was Gabby who tipped her off about 3PAR's efforts in Paris, but insisted that she didn't kill her. Gabby echoed 3PAR's comments, that she should be helping them, then went on to reveal that Alchemax took away their ability to feel pain, and cast doubt on the assertion that the Sisters killed a number of innocent people during their escape.; Gabby subsequently slipped out, but unwittingly led Laura to the sewers where she and her sisters are hiding while making their plans. In the confrontation that followed, Laura tried to talk them down, but was shot repeatedly by Bellona against Gabby's objections; however, before they could talk and diffuse the situation, a team led by Captain Mooney, Alchemax's head of security, attacked them. Laura and the Sisters subsequently defeat them before they, in turn, are ambushed by Taskmaster, who appeared to shoot and kill each of the remaining three Sisters.; The girls, however, were wearing body armor, and were only knocked unconscious. With Laura's assistance they managed to escape Masters, as well as Mooney's attempt to pursue them. They retreated to a warehouse, where the Sisters revealed to Laura that they were dying; whatever means Alchemax used to take away their pain was also shortening their lives. With no other options, Laura took them to see Doctor Strange, in hopes he might have a way to treat them.; At the Sanctum Sanctorum, Bellona's quick temper triggered the escape of a monster kept locked away by Strange, which escaped the house in its rampage. The girls immediately sprung into action to contain the beast and clear the streets of civilians, saving several innocent lives in the process of stopping it. However the action proved too much for a quickly weakening Zelda and she collapsed. Strange was able to determine the cause of their affliction — nanotechnology implanted by Alchemax — but he was unable to reverse the damage himself with his magic. Instead, he teleported the group to one of Hank Pym's labs, with instructions for Laura to borrow Ant-Man's Suit so she could deal with the infection directly.; With Zelda's health rapidly deteriorating, Wolverine enlisted the aid of Wasp to shrink down to combat the nanites killing her. They entered her bloodstream and began the process of destroying the machines. The attempt was successful and Zelda began to recover. However this triggered a homing device built into the machines that allowed Captain Mooney to track their location. Zelda was shot during his initial assault, marveling that she actually felt the pain. With Bellona trapped beneath rubble Gabby tried to fight Mooney off, but was casually thrown aside. Zelda was shot again coming to her aid. Laura and Janet, sensing something was wrong, left her body and returned to normal size, subduing Mooney before he could finish Zelda off. Unfortunately Zelda's wounds quickly proved fatal, and with her dying breath asked Laura to put an end to Alchemax's experiments once and for all.; The Sisters allowed Mooney to escape, and used him to locate Alchemax Genetics' base. Laura and Bellona swapped outfits, and Laura allowed herself to be "killed" in a failed attempt to attack the base. She awakened in the lab and escaped, setting off alarms on her way to the entrance to allow Gabby and Bellona inside. While Laura headed off to deal with Chandler, Gabby and Bellona intercepted and incapacitated Mooney. Bellona sent Gabby out into the hall, as she didn't want her sister to see her shoot Mooney. Bellona then announced she would be leaving, despite Gabby's protests. However they made a deal that Bellona was obligated to make good on, so Gabby was left alone to meet up with Laura. She found her having incapacitated Chandler, and asked for a moment alone with him. Laura complied, and when she departed, Gabby admitted her admiration for the Wolverine and the restraint. She admitted to wanting to kill him, but because Laura and Zelda wanted for her to be better — and Gabby's own desire to be good — let him live. However, before she left, she revealed that contrary to Alcehmax's beliefs she did develop Laura's claws.; As Laura and Gabby departed from the ruined installation ahead of a S.H.I.E.L.D. strike called in by Laura, Bellona connected with the contact who originally enabled their escape and supplied them with equipment: Kimura. In exchange for Gabby's freedom and her assistance, Bellona surrendered to Kimura so she could recover the technology Alchemax implanted in her.

+Sirens (Earth-2120)

+Full name: Sirens
+First appearance: Killraven Vol 2 2
+Created by: Alan Davis
+Species / origin: Genetically altered Humans
+Reality: Earth-2120
+Affiliation: Martian Masters
+Notes: The Sirens who appeared in Killraven Vol 2 were a reimagining of the Sirens who opposed the original Killraven in Amazing Adventures Vol 2 18. Those original Sirens were created by Roy Thomas, Neal Adams, Gerry Conway, and Howard Chaykin.; Although it was established that there were many Martian Citadels on Earth-2120, only three of them actually appeared in the Killraven mini-series. Of those three, Siren were seen to make up part of the human slave population of the Citadel of the Prime Consensus, no Sirens at all were seen in the subterranean Citadel of the outcast Science Sect, and readers were never shown the inside of the Citadel in New York. Based on this limited data set, it seems that Sirens were not used by every Martian faction and it's possible that the Prime Consensus was the only faction to have created Sirens to serve them.; Since the Sirens all wore hooded cloaks that made them look a lot alike, the only ways to distinguish between them were when their names were spoken in-story or by the color of their clothing. However, the fact that there exists at least one scene showing two Sirens wearing clothing that was the same shade of red means that it cannot be assumed that the red-cloaked Siren often seen with Whitman was always Skarlett.; Whenever Sirens had any dialogue, their speech balloons had edges that were wavy instead of rounded. This is a style which is apparently used to show that the speaker is physically weak.; While it was established that Sirens could cause subjects to feel intense pleasure, it was left unclear if this was entirely the result of a mental ability that they possessed.
+History:
+In the Citadel of the Prime Consensus, the Sirens were used to enforce the laws that governed the gladiators who fought in the adult arena, but apparently did not interact with the younger gladiators.; On the day that the young gladiator Raven graduated to the adult arena, Keeper Whitman explained to him that the combat would now be real, not games, and would sometimes be to the death. As Whitman implanted a monitor node into his brain, Raven declared that he would not kill, but Whitman told him that "Kill or be killed" was the law of the arena and that the Martians believed in rewarding good behavior as vigorously as they punished transgressions. Whitman then told him that the law enforcers were the Sirens and introduced Skarlett as she entered the room. With Raven seemingly immediately mesmerized by her, Skarlett praised Raven's strength and skill, and spoke of how eager he must be to enter the arena and to earn the beautiful rewards of victory. She promised to teach him of the undreamed pleasures a champion could win so that he would be eager to fight and even kill to win.; Skarlett seems to have been the Siren who most often rewarded Killraven and would ease his pain. She came to see herself as being his first love and his true love.; Later, after many hours talking with Skull, who had been an adult when the Martians invaded, Killraven learned about and came to value the concepts of humanity, justice and freedom. He began showing mercy to opponents, resisting the Sirens and refusing rewards, including Siren time.; After a death-match in which Killraven had spared the life of the injured M'Shulla by convincing him to play dead, even though they knew that both of them would be punished, Whitman confronted Killraven for his disobedience. Saying that he would make Killraven suffer until he begged to die, Whitman had two Sirens, Amber and Sinnamon, mentally hold Killraven in place while Whitman repeatedly shocked him.; Eventually, after Killraven had survived in the arena for more than six years, Whitman had had enough of the rebellious attitude he had developed, and told him that he would perform well or die. The three Sirens who were then present reported that Killraven was resisting and that he was thinking wrong thoughts from the before time. When Whitman moved to prod him with a charged pain device and Killraven struck him down, the Sirens reacted by trying to force him to submit to their will. When he resisted, they began to work together to bind his mind, but this triggered the first activation of Killraven's mind shield, apparently incapacitating them long enough for Killraven and four of his comrades to escape from the Citadel.; Months later, when the Prime Consensus showed an interest in recapturing Killraven and summoned Keeper Whitman to provide knowledge of Killraven that might be the key to his recapture, three Sirens accompanied him. When the other Keepers pointed out that the gladiators had been in his custody when they escaped, Whitman put the blame on the Sirens, stating that they had failed because Killraven had resisted him. One of the Sirens confirmed this, stating that there had been a psi-disruption, one far beyond normal human ability, and that its center had been the monitor node implanted by Whitman. Later, when the other Keepers told Whitman that he was to be exiled to the wilderness, the Sirens accompanied him out of the chamber.; Later, at the free village near old Washington, nine psi-linked Sirens were able to use their powers to trap Killraven in a Siren Dream. By using an illusionary reality in which the Tripods had destroyed the village and killed all of his friends, the Sirens lured him away from the village before the Tripods actually attacked it. Skarlett then approached Killraven, offered to ease his pain and invited him to come back to the citadel with her so things could be as they had been. However, Killraven rejected her and, when he continued to resist and she continued to try to make his mind hers, he allowed her to look into his mind. Overwhelmed by the death and destruction he had seen since escaping, Skarlett's mind lost its focus, as did the other Sirens to whom she was psi-linked, thus enabling Killraven to break free from the Siren Dream. After dealing with the troops who had been sent to capture him, alive or dead, Killraven confronted the Sirens who were too unfocused to restore their psi-link and attack again. When Skarlett told him that the Masters wanted him back and that the others had been expendable, Killraven recalled the attacking tripods and ran to the village where he found that his friends and the villagers had successfully destroyed the tripods.; Later, in the Citadel of the Prime Consensus, after Grok had delivered Killraven to the Keeper's men and been allowed entry to speak with the Masters, a large number of troops and at least fifteen Sirens were present to stand guard over them. However, when the Prime Consensus refused to commune with him telepathically and instead ordered him to submit to examination, Grok had the mind-controlled pyrokinetic Volcana Ash create flames that she used to drive the Keeper's Men and Sirens out of the chamber. Later, after their encounter with Killraven had made them think that they should reconsider their attitude towards humans, the Prime Consensus allowed the entire human slave population of their Citadel, including their troops, the gladiators and the Sirens, to leave and walk to freedom.; Later, back in the free village, some Sirens could be seen interacting with the villagers.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; Telepathy: Sirens have been genetically altered to possesses certain psychic powers. They are able to read minds enough to sense if subjects are thinking "wrong thoughts" and can view/experience memories of past events that their subjects have experienced.; Telepathic Illusions: Sirens have the ability to create realistic telepathic illusions and cause people to experience events which are not actually occurring. These "Siren Dreams" can be realistic enough that subjects may be unaware that what they are experiencing is not real.; Mind Link: Sirens have the ability to create a mental link with other Sirens so as to increase the power available for them to use against a target.; Mind Possession: Sirens can possess the minds of others enough to prevent them from making any voluntary movements.; Pleasure Inducement: Sirens can cause subjects to feel intense pleasure.; ===Weaknesses===; Mental Shields: Sirens can experience negative effects if they attempt to use their powers on individuals who possess mind shields. The resulting psi-disruption may render them unconscious and/or leave their minds too unfocused to use their powers.

+Notes: The process consist of The Six (or mutants with powers similar them for the teleportation process as backups), working as circuits with their own unique designation in the grand scheme of multiversal teleportation. The team consist of 6 teleporters and 5 others whose powers are uniquely needed:; A high-level technopathic mutant is needed to adjust and unify the powers of the teleporters for the process, they are called the Control (currently Wiz-Kid, with Forge as backup).; A mutant with the power to form protective exoskeletons is needed for protection of the teleporters through space, they are called the Shield (currently Armor, with Skids as backup).; A power manipulating mutant is needed to increase the powers of the teleporters, they are called the Power (currently Khora of the Burning Heart, who replaced Fabian Cortez).; A mutant with telescopic/microscopic/spectroscopic vision is needed to examine, see, and discern Kirbon particles, they are known as the Eye (currently Peeper, with Doc as backup).; A mutant with implosive field generation or similar powers to protect the teleporters from Kirbon fields, they are known as the Foundry (currently Risque, with Zorn as backup).; A space-folding mutant is needed to guide the teleportation process, they are known as the Guide (currently Manifold, with no backup). Any mid-to-long range teleporter can be used considering their availability, but currently listed as stand-ins or replacements for the current team are Nightcrawler and Magik.
+History:
+===Functionality===; The Six were formed as a part of S.W.O.R.D. to utilize further exploration Mutant Technology. While they are called the Six, that only refers to the main teleporters. They are the first stage of the Mutant Circuit of this type of Mutant Technology. While in actuality, an additional five mutants are needed for their specific gifts to ensure the process can work and go smoothly and safely during the second stage of the circuit.; As the Five combine their powers in unison and harmony to achieve resurrection, the Six combine their various types of mid-to-long range teleportation powers and the protection and power augmentation needed by the other members to reach different points in space, be it locally in their native universe, other dimensions, or through the multiverse.; ===Formation===; The Six were formed to help S.W.O.R.D. to go anywhere they needed or wanted to be. While demonstrating their power to Magneto, they travelled to the Far Shore and then further beyond into the Mystery. Arriving at the White Hot Room, they condensed kirbons into a mysterious metal called Mysterium.; The role of one of the Six — the Power — was given to Fabian Cortez. Abigail Brand wasn't happy with this choice due to Cortez's treacherous nature, and wanted to replace him as fast as possible. Unfortunately, she couldn't find a fitting mutant with a similar power set; Michael Nowlan refused to work for Krakoa, Boost's power could be used only on one mutant at a time, and Mister M wasn't available. Eventually, Brand found a good candidate among mutants from Arakko instead — Khora of the Burning Heart. Khora agreed to work for the S.W.O.R.D. and, after successfully completing a mission to stop the Snark War, she officially replaced Cortez.

+Reality: Earth-691
+Base of operations: New York City
+Affiliation: Martian Masters
+Notes: Given that one Siren denied being either a mutant or a witch, it seems likely that they were meant to be mutates. However, this was never directly stated in any story.; These Sirens, and their leader Skarlet, were reimagined in the Killraven mini-series as the Sirens from Earth-2120, one of whom was named Skarlett.; Although they were meant to be the same characters, the three Sirens who appeared on the first two pages of Amazing Adventures Vol 2 19 looked noticeably different from the three Sirens who appeared in the last panel of Amazing Adventures Vol 2 18. Unless they could somehow change their hair color and clothing at will, this was probably an artwork error.
+History:
+After escaping from the Gladiatorial Institute in 2014, Killraven discovered that the Martians and their human slaves were everywhere in New York City, collecting the remaining freemen for their games and their stockyards. Among those slaves were the Sirens, women who could call men to their doom. Killraven learned never to look at them for fear of falling prey to their spell.; In the autumn of 2018, after confronting and killing the Keeper (Raker) in his bunker, formerly known as Grand Central Station, Killraven was attacked from behind by a mutant. Although he quickly snapped the mutant's neck, the attack had distracted him enough that, when he heard a new sound, he turned towards it and found himself facing three Sirens.; As Killraven stood facing the Sirens, calling them mutant witches, the brunette Siren corrected him, stating that they were neither mutants nor witches. Then, as she used her power on Killraven, she declared that they would break him to their will, even as they had broken the will of countless other men like him, men who dared defy the Masters. At that point, the Siren suddenly stopped talking as she and Killraven both realized that her power wasn't working on him, with Killraven stating that it seemed that the power that hid him from robot scanners kept him safe from her wiles. As Killraven then stepped towards them, intending violence, the brunette Siren told him that if he wanted a struggle, he should seek it behind him. Although thinking her words were just a trick, Killraven did turn to look and saw a number of the dead Keeper's mutants about to attack him. The Sirens took advantage of the distraction to run away.; Later, after Killraven had destroyed a second drone tripod and rescued a shipment of arena slaves, Martian collaborator Professor Kempleton informed Master Twelve of the situation and was ordered to send out a scout flyer at once. By the time scout reported finding the hijacked ferry on fire off the Staten Island shore, "the Siren" had already been notified that Killraven was her new assignment.; Minutes later, when Killraven returned to the camp of the Freemen, he found his men standing motionless and unresponsive. A woman dressed in a scarlet robe then made her presence known and revealed that, by her use of the powers that were her genetic heritage, all of his men were in a deep trance. When the women then identified herself as Skarlet, queen of the Sirens, Killraven pointed out that her mutant charms had no effect on him and prepared to take action against her, but he was grabbed from behind by a three-legged robot and quickly subdued. Now securely bound, Killraven told the Siren that her robot had won the round for her, and Skarlet revealed that, since her sisters had warned her that he might prove difficult, precautions had been taken.; After being taken to the Arena (formerly known as Madison Square Garden) and defeating a large opponent called the Slasher, Killraven discovered the Freemen who had been captured by Skarlet were imprisoned there in cells and he freed them.; Months later, while trying to tame a hybrid serpent-stallion in Battle Creek, Michigan, Killraven told the mutated creature that its twists were "more diabolical than the curves of a Martian-designed Siren!"; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; Hypnosis: Sirens have the ability to mesmerize men and place them into deep trances. While in those trances, the men would obey whatever commands were given to them by the Sirens.; ===Weaknesses===; Sirens could only mesmerize men who were looking at them, with eye contact seeming to have been necessary.; Women may have been immune to their mesmerism.

+Notes: The name is only used as the title of the series, but not in-universe.
+History:
+To further his research into the X-Virus, Mister Sinister assembled a covert strike team that consisted of Havok, Black Cat, Domino, Lady Fantomex, and Omega Red, each outfitted in matching Sinister-designed tactical uniforms and operating under Havok's leadership in the field. The full scope of Essex's intentions was withheld from the team; he revealed to them only as much of his plans as the moment required. Other than Black Cat, each of the affected mutants was working for the promise of a cure to the X-Virus that further altered their bodies.; The team was deployed on an ambush in the Revelation Territories, staging an attack on Misty Knight and Colleen Wing, who served as unwitting bait to draw out Venom. Venom was successfully subdued and brought to Vale Sinister, where Sinister placed the symbiote in the team care for the next mission.; Essex dispatched the team to infiltrate an abandoned research facility where he believed the X-Virus had been engineered, in hopes of recovering data that could lead to a cure. Inside the facility, the team encountered Babels and a contingent of Seraphim led by the Angel of Death. Omega Red was killed, and the rest were captured. Revelation then arrived to confront the surviving members himself.; Lady Fantomex bought a momentary opening by incapacitating the Seraphim Chrome, allowing the others to break free. The battle that followed was one-sided: facing Revelation and his full contingent of Seraphim and Choristers, Lady Fantomex, Domino, and Black Cat. Realizing that this was the end, Havok released Venom from the shock collar and told it to leave. Havok then unleashed his powers in defiance of Revelation, which killed him as well.

+Full name: Slingers
+First appearance: Slingers Vol 1 0
+Created by: Joseph Harris; Adam Pollina
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Thorne Theater, Las Vegas; Formerly:; New York City
+Equipment: Prodigy's Suit, Ricochet's Suit, Dusk's Suit and Hornet's Suit
+Notes: The identities of the Slingers were originally created by Peter Parker.
+History:
+===Origin===; The golden age hero Black Marvel acquired the four costumes Peter Parker wore while he was accused of murder and couldn't go out as Spider-Man. He then proceeded to give them to four youngsters, forming a team that he named the Slingers. Each member adopted one of the costumes and the respective alias that Spider-Man used when wearing that specific costume.; They started to train and on one training session Dusk fell to her death from a roof. Ricochet and Hornet were devastated by what just happened, Prodigy, unaffected emotionally by the loss, told them to move on and they left. The first mission the Slingers were ordered to undertake by Black Marvel was at a construction yard. Prodigy, their field leader, told Ricochet and Hornet to take a look around, but neither of them noticed a dark figure following them. After some investigation they noticed that the Maggia had stored nuclear waste under the building and that waste had mutated rats to grow into huge mutated beasts. When they saw the rats coming for them, they retreated and Ricochet collapsed part of the tunnel using his throwing disk, but Hornet couldn't get clear and was buried under the rocks. Simultaneously on the surface, Prodigy was fighting against gangsters when the ground collapsed and he retreated.; Ricochet called Prodigy on his radio about Hornet but he simply crushed his radio and flew away. Ricochet tried to dig Hornet out but was too devastated to do so. Hornet was still alive under the ruble when that dark figure appeared over him and next he noticed he was standing in front of Ricochet who was shocked to see him. After they got out of the tunnel they had a run-in with Spider-Man who was trying to solve how four of his former costumes ended up on these guys.; The slingers managed to get away. Later in his room, Eddie was visited apparently by Dusk. She was the one who saved him in the underground tunnel and seems to have manifested her powers after her death. Prodigy had returned to Black Marvel and informed him that mission was a failure and that Ricochet and Hornet were dead. Black Marvel revealed the next mission to Prodigy at the opening of a new hotel. When Ricochet and Hornet learned that Black Marvel didn't tell them the truth about his plans, they also headed to the hotel, with Dusk close behind. When Ricochet and Hornet got to the hotel Prodigy attacked them. In the midst of the fight Ricochet was knocked down from the ledge and Prodigy prevented Hornet from saving him by throwing him through a window. Same time as this fight was going Black Marvel was planting bombs around the building.; A couple of stories down, Ricochet was falling to his death when Dusk appeared and teleported him to safety. Prodigy and Hornet were under gunfire from Maggia's goons. Prodigy took them down by throwing a round wooden table at them and grabbed one mobster by the throat. He almost killed him but Hornet intervened. Prodigy took off and Ricochet reunited with Dusk. Meanwhile Black Marvel had finished his bomb planting and detonated them. His ploy was to again be a hero and save people from the fire. Dusk teleported them to Black Marvel and Prodigy also appeared. Black Marvel ran from the flame leaving Ricochet, Hornet, and Dusk to save the civilians, while Prodigy just stood there. They saved several people and Ricochet took out the insane Black Marvel.; Prodigy stayed behind to hold up the building so it wouldn't collapse on the others. Everybody except Prodigy managed to get out. Prodigy was buried under the rubble and they handed Black Marvel to the police. Feelings in the team started to be closer after their first real mission and Dusk found Ricochet to be attractive. Not knowing that Hornet saw the kiss Dusk gave to him and couldn't help but feel jealous. It was not known to the rest of the team that Prodigy was still alive and managed to dig himself out of the hotel ruins. Ricochet, Dusk, and Hornet then had a brief encounter again with sewer mutant rats and their leader Griz.; Prodigy spent some time cleaning the city by his own methods and with his fists. Prodigy joined the group again and they were all pulled into Mephisto's domain to fight for Black Marvel's soul. Mephisto put them through their biggest fears and ordered his armies to kill them but in the end they managed to free Black Marvel's soul. Leaving Mephisto to his kingdom they teleported back to earth.; The group disbanded for uncertain reasons. Ricochet left the team to join the Loners, Hornet died when he tried to stop a mind controlled Wolverine, Dusk wasn't seen for a long while, and Prodigy was an unregistered superhero who was hunted during the Civil War.; ===Reunion===; A demon from Hell became fixated with the Black Marvel's desire to continue teaching the Slingers. When the demon was liberated by the Diogenes Initiative, he confined himself to the form of the Black Marvel, gaining his knowledge and his abilities. The demon also brought back from Hell the former supervillain Cyber, and outfitted him with the equipment of the late Hornet. The Black Marvel impersonator proceeded to contact Prodigy, and had him and Hornet work for Las Vegas millionaire Silas Thorne.; At Prodigy's request, Ricochet trailed Las Vegas vigilante Scarlet Spider, and to his surprise stumbled upon the new Hornet, of whose existence he wasn't aware. Ricochet teamed up with Scarlet Spider to investigate Hornet, and when they confronted him, Dusk made an appearance to help them out. Ricochet decided to put aside his mistrust for Hornet to bring the Scarlet Spider to justice after he brutally attacked Thorne. Prodigy subsequently reunited with the other three, effectively marking the return of the Slingers.; After the Slingers kidnapped the Scarlet Spider's ally Cassandra Mercury to force him to turn himself over for hospitalizing Thorne, they met up with the Black Marvel at the Thorne Theater. The quartet and their mentor were soon confronted by the Scarlet Spider and his namesake Kaine Parker. In the middle of the battle, Dusk turned against Black Marvel, since her powers allowed her to detect his true nature. The Hornet additionally revealed his real identity to his teammates. Having learned of the truth behind his mentor's apparent return, the Prodigy turned against him as well. When Hornet and Black Mask were driven off, the Slingers attempted but failed to capture Hornet. The Scarlet Spiders went up against Black Marvel, and seemingly killed him. The Slingers then made peace with the Scarlet Spider, but promised to ensure he would hold to his promise to refrain from acting violently again.

The Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. freed Captain America and unmasked General Chen as their leader.; ===Sons of the Serpent II===; The Sons of the Serpent were reformed by two talk show hosts, Dan Dunn and Montague Hale, trying to stir up racial distrust and hate. They were defeated and exposed by the Black Panther and the Avengers.; ===Sons of the Serpent III===; The Sons of The Serpent were reformed yet again, being financed by J.C. Pennysworth of Richmond Enterprises, who was an African-American posing as a white racist in pursuit of power. The Sons of the Serpent were destroying tenement buildings in Harlem, attempting to drive African-Americans, Puerto Ricans and other minority groups out of their city. They were foiled in this attempt by the Defenders.; ===Sons of the Serpent IV===; An iteration of the Sons of Serpent became involved in the criminal underworld of Los Angeles. Under the leadership of the Hate Monger, they were selling guns and drugs to the street gangs of Los Angeles.

They are a hate group who control the New York justice system for profit and for their own ends. They are opposed by Daredevil.; ===Sons of the Serpent VII===; Another version of the Sons of the Serpent patrolled the American border to apprehend illegal immigrants, while at the same time kidnapping any healthy adult males and shipping them to Dr. Karl Malus so he could use them as test subjects for his experiments. They were stopped by Captain America with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s assistance.; "Donald Blake", now known as the Serpent, took control of the organization. Merle Hennessy, a member of Roxxon, hired them to deal with Sigurd Jarlson, whom Blake realized was a reincarnation of Thor. A Son died in their initial attack, but it was part of a plan to tempt Jarlson into betraying himself and allowing Blake to reclaim his humanity.; Clear

+History:
+The Snake Skulls are a cult that was active in the United States during the 1940s. Their exact origins are unknown, but in the spring of 1945 they began targeting some of the most wealthy men on Wall Street. To this end, their leader sent their minions to obtain jobs as butlers, chauffeurs, and other labor for the rich men. Then using puff adder venom, on their victims as they were withdrawing large sums of money from their accounts. All their intended victims had weak hearts to begin with, as such the interaction with the venom would cause heart failure, thus throwing off any investigation.; However, when the cult performed this scheme on their latest victim, Mr. Ramsey, it was on the day when Privates Steve Rogers and James Buchanan Barnes were at the bank. When the butler attempted to leave with Ramsey and a withdrawn amount of fifty thousand dollars without calling a doctor, Steve and James chased after him. Attacked by some thugs outside, who bloodied James' nose, both he and Steve lost the butler and their attacker. Later, when the police arrived the were told that Ramsey died of heart failure, but the skull of a puff adder and a black book listing names of local wealthy men were found at the scene of the crime.; Realizing what was going on, Steve and James then raced off to warn the next victim, businessman Cyrus Little, as Captain America and Bucky. Getting the drop on the cult members, Cap and Bucky saved Little's life and learned the location of the Snake Skulls' hideout. There they were welcomed into their home and brought to their nameless leader. Cap instantly noticed that the leader was wearing some kind of special face mask. The leader revealed that the room was filled with puff adder venom as Cap began to succumb to its effects. Bucky, immune to the poison because his nose was packed with cotton, then smashed a window to let fresh air into the room. Cap and Bucky then easily defeated the leader and his fellow cultists and turned them over to the authorities.; To date there have been no further appearances of the Snake Skulls.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Shield Orbiter, mobile in space (orbiting Rus)
+History:
+The Society of Higher Interstellar Education and Logistical Development is an interplanetary community of scientific researchers and educators, in good standing with the Intergalactic Institute of Advanced Learning of the planet Rus, frequently orbitting Rus in their ship headquarter, Shield Orbiter.; SHIELD Base-Level Pupil Yoof had performed an unauthorized experiment, then carelessly disposed of waste elements by throwing those away on Earth as a meteor. The residue was found by Earthborn woman Bonita Juarez, who due to that obtained superpowers and became the superheroine Firebird. SHIELD discovered about Firebirdand correctly deduced that her superpowers were related to SHIELD activities. Fearing that Firebird may be a threat or a hindrance to other Earthlings, SHIELD abducted her to perform painful experiments on her body so as to take relevant conclusions. Onboard the Orbiter, Prime Theoretician Chlreee led the investigation, with fellow SHIELD member Hji operating a machine that gave them information. Chlreee and fellow scientist Cmar Har observed how Firebird resisted her discomfort without screaming; then Firebird spoke out loud in English, and Chlreee immediately asked Hji whether that was a language to be informed of. Afterward, Hji provided a playback of Firebird's recent past; but Chlreee noticed that they had to research into older times. Chlreee discovered that Firebird had joined the Avengers, of which he knew, and concluded that SHIELD had created a "Terran parahuman". Looking at previous events in which Juarez spoke Spanish (with Hji translating), they discovered the meteor-related origin of Firebird's powers, and Chlreee immediately understood the effect of Yoof's irresponsible behavior;Chlreee was visibly angry at Yoof.; Firebird then released herself and demanded to know what was happening, attacking the scientists (thou the Orbiter's security measures protected them against immediate harm). Chlreee ordered to activate the translator for the two used languages, and stepped forward personally to talk with Firebird, something that Cmar Har appreciated. Chlreee apologized, explained what was happening, and what had happened, and how they only wanted to ensure that Earth remained stable. Firebird was enraged at discovering that young, irresponsible Yoof had accidentally given her powers, and focused an attack and scolding on him; then had a short crisis of faith, as she had believed her powers to have been a sign of God. Chlreee, already impressed at how Firebird had used her powers in the encounter, reassured Firebird, telling her of the specifics of her powers and how useful they were, then returned her to Earth, at which point she had been convinced that God had given her the powers through SHIELD.

Once Magneto defeated Exodus, the Sleepers were freed from his control. He later put them under Xorn's care in Tibet, with the intention to have them protected while at the same time having them at his disposal in case the were needed.; When the united X-Men factions launched an attack on New Attilan as part of a plan to destroy the Terrigen Cloud that caused M-Pox, he had Xorn and the Sleepers march and become the overseers of the Inhuman population held captive at their home.; Following the conflict with the Inhumans, Xorn relocated to the Blue Area of the Moon and left the Sleepers under the command of Archangel.

+History:
+After Gorr travelled to far future, he began using the Pool of Forevers to abduct gods from across the timestream. After Gorr's death, several of these gods were left without homes and chose to settle in Asgard, while others sought out planets to preside over. When Thor the Avenger returned to the past, he brought back a group of gods to replace the original Sky Lords of Indigarr - who had been slaughtered by Gorr.; Rose Father, The Choir, Our Lady of Comets, Meat Mother, and the Prince of Soot proceeded to terraform Indigarr from a desolate wasteland into a verdant garden, but as the eons passed they fell dormant and were assumed to have perished.; Billions of years later, they were awakened by the Goddesses of Thunder to help All-Father Thor fight against Loki, who had taken up the primordial symbiote All-Black. By the time they reached the battle, Loki had resurrected Gorr, who had reclaimed All-Black and was trying to drown Thor and Loki in its living abyss.; The Sky Lords of Indigarr attacked Gorr, mockingly stating that they were his true legacy and helping the Goddesses of Thunder defeat him. However, Gorr revealed that his body had been a construct created by All-Black, taking over the primordial symbiote and using it to infect the very universe itself - attacking them with symbiote-infected planetoids.; After All-Black was destroyed and Gorr was resurrected but left amnesiac and insane, the Sky-Lords - begrudgingly in the case of Our Lady of Comets - permitted him to spend the rest of his mortal life on Indigarr.

Using the schematics and theories within Yinsen’s journal, Sun Tao recruited eleven of Yinsen’s other students to help him create the aerial, futuristic city of New Timbetpal, and expanded their order’s followers by a literal thousandfold. Though the original twelve Sons of Yinsen constructed versions of the Iron Man Armor for themselves from the schematics within Yinsen’s journal, their society was mostly non-violent, relying primarily on Iron Man robot drones for self-defense. The Sons had also sworn an oath of silence, save it seemed for Sun Tao himself, presumably so he could act as a spokesperson for his people.; The Sons of Yinsen were eventually offered the chance to recover their mentor’s brain, which had been extracted from Yinsen’s body upon his passing as part of a deal he’d made with Doctor Midas in a silent auction. Though they lost, Midas’ intermediary offered the chance to learn the identity of the person they’d lost the auction to, in exchange for their losing bid. The Sons agreed, and upon learning the winner had been Yinsen and Sun Tao’s captor, Wong-Chu, began hunting criminal informants that could help lead them to Yinsen’s old enemy.; Iron Man first encountered the Sons of Yinsen in Kyoto, Japan, when their Iron Man drones attacked multiple buildings in search of said informants. Despite causing notable property damage, the Sons avoided harming civilians, and made it clear they had no interest in doing so. When Iron Man encountered them again in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Tony was surprised to see the Sons of Yinsen treat him with a religious deference, and followed them to New Timbetpal. Inside, Tony was greeted by Sun Tao, who explained their order had long studied Iron Man, and prophesied he would someday come to them. At Sun Tao’s request, Iron Man joined the original twelve Sons of Yinsen in attacking Wong-Chu’s camp and recovering Yinsen’s brain.; Hoping to effectively “resurrect” Yinsen, the Sons dug up Tony’s Sentient Armor from where it had been buried so they could place Yinsen’s brain inside, effectively making the suit their mentor’s new body. Yet “Yinsen’s” behavior was unusually authoritarian and bellicose, commanding the Sons to replace their "sacred armor" with copies of the Sentient Armor, and ousting Sun Tao for questioning his mentor’s behavior and orders. "Yinsen" also revealed New Timbetpal's existence to the world and established the Church of Yinsen, which quickly gained popularity worldwide.; Replacing him with Wong-Chu's killer, Tyger Minn, "Yinsen" brainwashed Sun Tao and ordered him to attack Iron Man, while the other Sons stole the S.K.I.N. technology Stark had recently developed. Sun Tao and Iron Man then battled the cloaked Sons until "Yinsen" attacked Stark's artificial heart. Recovering, Iron Man set out after them and Jocasta explained that she needed to confront the Sentient Armor.; "Yinsen" revealed that he was actually the Avengers' old foe Ultron. Jocasta had inadvertenedly given the 'Ultron Imperative' and Ultron-12's personality to Iron Man's armor when her AI was uploaded into it. The 'body' of Yinsen was actually Ultron attempting to reform himself. He had used his encephalobeam to lure the Sons, using their beliefs against him. He planned to form an army using both S.K.I.N. and the armors that had been built.; Ultron was stopped when Jocasta uploaded herself into the Sentient Armor. Yet Ultron's defeat triggered a self-destruct sequence the malevolent robotic being had programmed into New Timbetpal. Iron Man tried to get the Sons to leave their city, but they said their actions deserved punishment. Iron Man and Sun Tao left. Iron Man also tried contacting Jocasta, but she did not respond.

+First appearance: Deadly Hands of Kung Fu Vol 1 1
+Created by: Gerry Conway; Dick Giordano
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Team of martial arts experts
+Reality: Earth-616
+Equipment: The Amulets of Power
+Notes: The Sons of the Tiger were three martial arts heroes featured in the comic book magazine published by Curtis Magazines (a short-lived imprint of Marvel Comics) called The Deadly Hands of Kung Fu. The "Origin" issue appeared in DHKF #1 titled, appropriately enough, "The Sons of the Tiger". The series was created by Gerry Conway and drawn by Dick Giordano. The series was published in the early 1970s amid the "kung fu" or chopsocky movie craze.; The Sons of the Tiger also made appearances in Special Collector's Edition #1 titled Savage Fists of Kung Fu. They also appeared in the Special Album Edition of Deadly Hands of Kung Fu. As a note; Interestingly, the magazine continued using the title "Sons of the Tiger" even though the trio had split up and their power was transferred to the "White Tiger", although the characters still appeared in it.; Following the cancellation of the magazine, Bob Diamond made occasional appearances in Power Man and Iron Fist as Colleen Wing's lover.
+History:
+The Sons of the Tiger were three friends and martial arts students of Master Kee:; Lin Sun - Chinese, the leader of the trio, and the adopted son of Master Kee; Abe Brown - African American member of the trio from the mean streets of Harlem; Bob Diamond - Caucasian member of the trio, a Hollywood actor; Lin Sun was walking back from a martial arts tournament with his 1st place trophy when he was suddenly attacked by ninja in front of his school in San Francisco. After defeating the villains he went into the "Tiger Dojo", which had been ransacked. He found a dying Master Kee, who told him that there were forces in this world which would destroy them and then pointed to a box on a shelf, after which he died. In the box Lin found three amulets made of jade, a tiger's head and two claws: the symbol of their school. The inscription at the base of the box read: "When three are called and stand as one, as one they'll fight, their will be done... For each is born anew, The Tiger's Son." They were later known as "the Amulets of Power".; Soon after, Lin met up with his two friends Abe Brown and Bob Diamond, who had also been attacked by ninja. Lin recounted the story of Master Kee's death and gave each of them one of the Jade Tiger claw amulets. They soon discovered that when they joined hands and chanted the inscription from the box they became mystically connected. Their martial arts skills combined to become one force: their physical abilities were tripled when they wore the amulets. The trio then went on to fight the Silent Ones, an evil organization with mystical ties attempting to rule the world. During this period, they were joined by Lotus Shinchuko, a former slave to the Silent Ones whom they freed from their control.; The trio eventually broke up (due to a romantic triangle between Lin Sun, Lotus, and Diamond) and Lin Sun threw all three amulets into a trash can located in an alley. There, Hector Ayala found the amulets and wore them to become the White Tiger.; After the team split up, Diamond renewed his acting career, while Lin Sun and Lotus unsuccessfully tried to find employment in New York. Meanwhile, Abe Brown became involved in a plot that led to him becoming the Black Tiger.

+Base of operations: Galador
+Abilities: Flight: both Atmospheric and Interstellar.

+Notes: There are only a few known instances of Non-Galadorians wielding Spaceknight armor:; The Earthling Brandy Clark inherited the powers of Landra (Starshine) and was merged with the Starshine armor by the Dire Wraith Warlock Doctor Dredd.; Quasimodo temporarily inhabited the armor of Rom after cloning and removing his human remains. He was slain & expunged from the armor by Brandy Clark (Starshine).; The Earthling Archie Stryker became a dupe of the Dire Wraiths and was merged with the Firefall armor they captured wielded by the Galadorian Karas two centuries earlier.; Tyreseus, a ship's surgeon for the Shi'ar would merge himself with the Pulsar armor of Plor after the wounded Spaceknight died in battle with the Imperial Guard and try to mount an insurrection against the Shi'ar Empire.; Ultron used the body of a deactivated Spaceknight to return to Earth.; In IDW's Hasbro shared universe, the [https://idwhasbro.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Space_Knight Space Knights] were the elite military of the [https://idwhasbro.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Solstar_Order Solstar Order], an interspecies organization dedicated to combat the Dire Wraiths.
+Trivia: Rom was described as a “Space Knight” (two words) on the packaging of the toy that inspired his original licensed comic book (see right). In the comics, however, Bill Mantlo chose to use the spelling “Spaceknight” (one word). This inadvertently allowed Marvel to retain the trademark on the Spaceknights even after losing the Rom license, as long as they always write it in the same way.; The Avengers Assemble episode Guardians and Space Knights and the comic series Venom: Space Knight faced no legal complications, as neither of them (despite what their titles suggest) includes any participation from the Galadorian Spaceknights (i.e., those related to Rom and his individual franchise).; Hasbro (the current owner of the Rom character and franchise) can use the concept without needing Marvel's permission, but as expected, they must write it as two separate words and cannot use any characters originally created by the publisher.; The Chicago-based Initiative team also called Spaceknights may be related to the Galadorian Spaceknights, as during the Skrull Invasion they were stated to also hate shape-changing aliens.
+History:
+===First Generation===; The Spaceknights are an elite corps of cyborg warriors created by the humanoids of the planet Galador to battle the Dire Wraiths. About two hundred years ago, a fleet of Galadorian starships entered the sector of space known as the Dark Nebula, bringing gifts of technology and peace. The Galadorian Armada was savagely attacked and massacred by the sorcerous Dire Wraiths. A Dire Wraith warfleet prepared to invade Galador itself. The Prime Director of Galador asked the general populace of the planet for volunteers to give up their humanoid bodies and undergo surgical conversion into an army of cyborg warriors called Spaceknights who would be adapted for the rigors of combat in outer space.; The first to volunteer was a man named Rom, who became the greatest and most heroic of the Spaceknights. Millions volunteered, but only a few hundred were accepted and underwent surgery in which much of their body, including their brain, was transplanted into a computerized exoskeleton onto which their autonomic and central nervous systems were grafted. Those portions of the subjects' bodies which were not used in the conversion process were cryogenically preserved on Galador in the Hall of Science. The Galadorians intended to restore the Spaceknights to their original humanoid forms once the war with the Dire Wraiths was over.; The Spaceknights were dispatched with rocket pods and offensive weapons especially suited to each Spaceknight's particular cybernetic strengths. Each Spaceknight was thus equipped with a different weapon than the others, or had armor designed so as to give him or her a special power or powers. In the major confrontation that ensued, a thousand brave Spaceknights formed a line of battle around Galador and in savage combat defeated the Wraith fleet and their monstrous creature Deathwing, scattering it across the cosmos.; Large numbers of Wraiths had escaped the battle, however, and Wraith strongholds were believed to exist in other parts of the universe. Realizing the decimated Wraiths would infiltrate whatever worlds they came to and rebuild their strength to once again assail Galador, the first generation of Spaceknights set forth on the quest to rid the Universe of their evil. Hence, Rom and the other Spaceknights left Galador to stalk Dire Wraiths throughout the universe, and did so for over 200 Earth year. A trio of Spaceknights, each named Brakka, Kron, and Tarq, returned to Galador to reclaim their organic bodies, only for their request to be denied. Instead the Galadorians planned to decommission the three Spaceknights, which caused the trio to turn on their people. They then went to search for Morn's fabled Light of Galador, but unable to find it the three Spaceknights went into hibernation.; A number of Spaceknights, including Breaker, Pulsar, Scanner, Seeker, Trapper, and the The Unseen, worked together as the so-called Spaceknight Squadron.; Most of the original First Generation of Spaceknights possess (in their cyborg forms) superhuman strength, the ability to fly (using rocket pods on their backs), the ability to survive indefinitely in outer space, and high resistance to injury by conventional means. Each Spaceknights' armor was principally made of Plandanium, an extremely strong metal alloy. Large power requirements, such as movement and the picking up of objects, made use of a meson/antimeson thermo-electric battery which can operate under normal conditions for five Earth centuries. The flexible metal exoskeletons contained fluid "motors" which give the Spaceknights their great strength. The Spaceknights' brains are kept alive in a blood-like fluid that circulates through the body organs within the exoskeleton.; Two centuries later, Rom would return to Galador just in time to lead a portion of the First Generation Spaceknights against Galactus. Rom was able to strike a bargain with the devourer to lead him to an entire star system that he could consume instead. When Galactus was unable to stomach the Black Sun he still kept his bargain with Rom in part by moving the approaching Galador to another location where none of the First Generation knew.; ===Second Generation===; After Galactus moved Galador to a location unknown to Rom and his fellow Spaceknights, the Galadorians created a second generation of Spaceknights more powerful, but less human than the first, to protect the planet. However, no threat arose and these second generation Spaceknights came to feel superior to normal Galadorians. A civil war broke out on Galador between this renegade generation led by Dominor and the human inhabitants with their Angel Elite allies. The war led to the virtually total depopulation of Galador.; At this time the now-human Brandy Clark of Earth was transported to Galador by The Beyonder, since she wanted to be reunited with Rom. Brandy was attacked by the G2 Spaceknight Lightningbolt but was saved by a resistance group hiding nearby. Brandy and Ariane, the leader of the human Galadorians, conceived a plan to seize the preserved humanity of the G2 Spaceknights to use as a bargaining chip. Rom and his fellow G1 Spaceknights Seeker, Scanner, and Trapper arrived just as the confrontation began. Heatwave then destroyed the preserved humanity of all the Spaceknights. With Rom feigning to be ready to kill the renegades as a decoy, they were able to escape to a hidden lair. A plan was devised to send out a homing beacon that would allow the remainder of the lost G1 Spaceknights to find their homeworld. While Seeker began an assault on the unsuspecting renegades, Trapper protected Scanner while she operated the beacon. All three were destroyed by the renegades but not before contact was made. Rom faced Dominor in single combat and defeated him. The remainder of the G2 Spaceknights seeing their leader humbled, formed a "Ring of Power" with the intent to destroy the entire planet. However, once the circle was complete all the members of the renegades and their Dark Tower were destroyed. Dominor explained to Rom that he had created the "Ring of Power" as a failsafe to prevent losing control of the renegades and now intended to reclaim his humanity and mate with Brandy. He also stated that he had hid his humanity and so it was not destroyed by Heatwave. When Rom asked where it had been hidden, Dominor turned to find the hiding place, his throne of power, had also been destroyed with the Dark Tower. In despair, Dominor launched himself at Rom and using his Destabilizer Beams, took control of Rom's Neutralizer long enough to commit suicide.; Soon after, a large contingent of the G1 Spaceknights arrived to find their beloved Galador in ruins and their humanity forever destroyed. The lone exception was the humanity of Rom which Galactus had hidden in the crypt of the Spaceknight Terminator for Rom to reclaim. Rom regained his human form and with Brandy at his side began the rebuilding of Galador. The remaining G1 Spaceknights headed off planet to continue their quest against evil while pledging to protect Rom & Brandy as they repopulated the planet.; ===Third Generation===; The Third Generation were created by the revitalized Galador under the leadership of Rom and Brandy Clark of Earth. They had two sons, Balin and Tristan, their children took up the legacy and become part of a new generation of Spaceknights. With Galador once again in contact with it colonies, the planet once again established itself at the forefront of cyborg technology.; They would come face to face with the menace of the Wraithknights. While battling this new foe, a Deathwing was summoned. While trying to find a way to combat the Deathwing, Axadar suddenly appeared to Tristan and bonded with him. He then destroyed the Deathwing.; This group took part in the Annihilation wars aiding Nova, Quasar (Phyla-Vell), and Blastaar against the Annihilation wave. The Galadorians began a "Restitution Initiative" in aiding the rebuilding of other worlds after the war. One cadre would be corrupted by the Phalanx when they answered a distress call and used to infect the war-net of the Kree Empire.; ===Annihilators===; When Starlord began the formation of a team of universal protectors known as the Annihilators, the Galadorians sent Ikon as their representative. Soon upon her arrival, a Skrull named Klobok assumed the identity of the Wraith Warlock known as Doctor Dredd and relocated the sorcerous Black Sun from its shielded cloak inside the Dark Nebula to the Galadorian home system. This led to the return of Wraithworld from Limbo and the fusing of both Galador's Sun and the Wraith's into one stellar mass. The Annihilators then shifted the orbits of both worlds so that Galador always faced the natural yellow sun and Wraithworld the half that was the Black Sun. An uneasy truce now exists between the two races.; ===Infinity===; Galador, along with all its inhabitants, was presumably destroyed by the Builders at the start of the conflict that became known as the Builder War. Among those known to be present were the Spaceknights Terminator (Balin), Starshine (Landra), Firefall (Tarn), Ikon, and Pulsar who despite their best efforts were unable to save their world. A trio of surviving Spaceknights led by Ikon showed up at a later battle in the campaign against the people that destroyed their planet, helping free Centauri-IV from Builder occupation. In the aftermath, the remaining Spaceknights fell in despair, and spend their time drinking at a bar in the Fulcrum's Underbelly, while some others went on to become mercenaries by the name of the Disavowed of Galadoria.; When teenage Cable claimed the Light of Galador on the Arak Coral, Brakka, Kron, and Tarq reawakened and travelled to Earth. There they learned about the fate of Galador and proceeded to summon several other remaining Spaceknights with the intention of using the sword to convert Earth into New Galador. Cable managed to convince the Spaceknights to instead use his time machine to go back in time and save their planet. However, as the Spaceknights were about to use it, Cable detonated a nuclear device, killing them all. Later, adult Cable helped the Last Knight of Galador by using the sword in sowing the seeds of a new Galador on a barren world.

This group consisted of Oya, Quentin Quire, Evan Sabahnur, Glob Herman, Jia Jing, Shark-Girl, Eye Boy and Broo.
+History:
+===Xorn's===; The Special Class were a group of mutants trained by Xorn; its students included Angel (whose reason for being in the Special Class is unknown), Basilisk (who had no focus for his energy), Beak (who wanted respect), Dummy (who had no community), Ernst, and Martha Johansson (who it looks like joined because of Ernst). They went into the woods to meditate, when U-Men attacked (soon after Xorn found out one of his own students had put a paper on his back with the word "Jackass" on it). Dummy died when Kid Omega tried to take over the school. Shortly after the mutant Dust joined, they became members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Basilisk was killed by Xorn soon after. The rest of the group later rebelled. After Xorn (apparently) died, the remaining students (possibly with the approval of the teachers) disbanded the class.; ===Spider-Man's===; After Wolverine died, Ororo found papers about inviting Spider-Man to teach to a new special class composed of the past students Ernst and No-Girl, but also Hellion, Rockslide, Shark-Girl, Glob Herman and Eye Boy, all considered to be "most likely to turn super villain" kids, but in fact as a way to find a mole working against the school. Meanwhile, Spider-Man and the Special Class have a lesson in the Danger Room, but Rockslide pushes him into a robot, which tries to crush him. Spider-Man then criticizes Rockslide for his actions and takes the special class to a museum. Suddenly, Stegron and Sauron appear in the museum and later defeats them. The Special Class later wake up in Staten Island, which had been transformed into the New Savage Land. Shark Girl seemingly betrays the class, but later reveals she is still on their side, helping them defeat Stegron and Sauron. Later, the Special Class are kidnapped by Chameleon who is working for Mojo in Mojoverse. The Special Class escape with the help of the X-Babies. The Special Class were also challenged to a "Science Off" by Beast and his class.; ==Line-Up==; ===First===; Xorn - appointed teacher of the Special Class; Angel Salvadore - an insect-like mutant; Beak - an avian-like mutant; Basilisk - a mutant with limited intelligence and an unusual appearance, e.g. bald, abnormally large, and with one eye. This made him extremely aggressive. Basilisk suffered from brain seizures until he was given a device to help regulate the ability; No-Girl - a disembodied mutant with telepathic powers; Ernst - super-strong mutant, who helped Martha Johansson move around the institute.; Dummy - an autistic, young mutant whose body was made up of sentient gas. His form was put into a latex suit that granted him a humanoid appearance and functionality.; ===Second===; Spider-Man - appointed teacher of the Special Class; Ernst; No-Girl (Martha Johansson); Hellion (Julian Keller); Rockslide (Santo Vaccarro); Shark-Girl (Iara Dos Santos); Glob Herman (Robert Herman); Eye Boy (Trevor Hawkins)

+History:
+The Spaceknight Squadron was a composite group of First Generation Spaceknights each with unique abilities. Each member was one of the 1,000 volunteers that sacrificed their humanity to become cyborg warriors in Galador's last desperate defense against the Dire Wraiths invasion fleet. The unit was later dispatched by Galador's Prime Director to locate the missing Rom. The Squadron followed the trail of wrecked Wraith Drakillar's to Wraithworld. On the surface, they found Rom entranced by Wraith illusions and Unam was able to finally free him from the delusion.; Rom would later rescue Tarm and Skera from the living planet Ego on his return trek to find Galador. The trio would next encounter Unam and then aid Vola in deposing the now renegade Raak whom Rom neutralized and banished to Limbo with his Dire Wraith allies. They would all soon after become prisoners of Gladiator of the Shi'ar empire in answer to crimes supposedly committed by Plor. They later find out the fate of the real Plor when Tyreseus, who had usurped the Pulsar armor from the dying Plor, is confronted by the Spaceknights and the Imperial Guard. Tyreseus is slain and Gladiator uses the Shi'ar Stargate to send the Spaceknights home to Galador.; Upon their arrival on the homeworld, they find Galador ravaged by civil war between a new Second Generation Spaceknights that turned renegade and the human resistance. A battle ensues and many renegade Spaceknights are slain along with the remaining humans on Galador with the exception of the recently arrived Brandy Clark. Rom creates a final diversion allowing them to escape to the catacombs beneath the surface where Brandy tells them of what she has learned of Galador's fate. Together, they plan to assault the Dark Tower (the bastion of the renegades) and send out a homing signal for the remainder of Galador's lost First Generation Spaceknights to follow to their lost homeworld. In the final assault Rom confronts the renegades leader, Lord Dominor in single combat while the Spaceknight Squadron battles the remaining renegades allowing Skera enough time to send out the signal. Soon after, all the Spaceknight Squadron members are slain by the renegades.

Recorded history has followed only three specific members of the Space Rangers. Commissioner Arnold Williams and Captains Bob Raleigh and Bartin "Nibbs" Culp. Williams would dispatch Raleigh and Nibbs on two separate missions.; The first was to investigate a series of merchant ships that had been robbed of Plinium. This took the two Space Rangers to a meteor near Mercury, where they battled the mastermind behind the plot: the space thief known as Blackhawk. With the aid of Blackhawk's own daughter, the Space Rangers thwarted Blackhawk's plot, ending in Blackhawk's death. For their next assignment, Bob and Nibbs were sent to investigate the theft of new experimental rockets, by posing as the pilots of one. They were captured by Carl Formes of the planet Glakor. In the ensuing battle, Formes locked himself in a safe room and refused to leave, prompting the Space Rangers to set off the planet's explosives, destroying the planet.; Further missions of the Space Rangers are as yet unrecorded.

+History:
+The Super Trooper armor was created by the Gremlin and given to select men working for him. While the Hulk was being pursued by Thunderbolt Ross he came near the Gremlin's hidden base and the Gremlin decided this would be an ideal opportunity to test out his Super Troopers. Sending out his men they were initially unable to beat the Hulk, but then they gassed him knocking him out. When General Ross came by they captured him and put him in a cell with Banner. Ross was able to make Banner angry enough to become the Hulk and he smashed his way out and fled.; Some time later when it was learned that Glenn Talbot was being held by the Gremlin at Bitterfrost General Ross led a rescue mission to save him. Bruce Banner stowed away on the transport and when they reached Gremlin's base turned into the Hulk. When his other defenses didn't stop the Hulk the Gremlin called out his improved Super Troopers who managed to defeat the Hulk using their electro-stasis rifles. The Hulk was then held in electro-stasis until Ross was able to free him and they fled the base before it was destroyed by a nuclear satellite.

+History:
+===Overview===; The Specialized Unit, Enhanced Soldiers or "SUES" was an American combat unit composed of various diversely-enhanced Super-Soldiers which was commissioned by special order of General Dwight D. Eisenhower and initially led by Captain America after the United States' entry into World War II.; ===Events===; The official record states that the SUES were a specialized Ranger unit attached to the 101st Air Assault Division for the purposes of combat operations deep behind enemy lines. The real, and much more insidious, reason for the unit's existence, however, is that it was used as a training grounds for training superhuman operatives for a different mission. Not much is known about what this mission was, but in 1940 the American government embarked upon on a very unique and expensive project that was believed to eventually be able to turn the tide of war in the Allies' favour. While referred to informally by those in the know as the "Silver Plated Project," it's official designation was Project Alberta. Of particular interest to the project was Frank Cortez, known as Captain Flame. Captain America was actually given special orders by a Colonel Ledford in 1944 detailing how to guide Captain Flame's development, stating that they needed him in the worst way and that the Captain would "have to push him to his absolute limit." The Captain was forbidden from making any of this information known to any of the other members of the unit. Presumably Cortez was unknowingly a major component of "Operation Firefly," a top-secret culmination of a number of secret projects running concurrently during the war, including Project Alberta.; When the Crazy SUES were first assembled, they were sent to basic training and stayed in barracks, much like any other new unit. Most of the heroes were meeting each other for the very first time and mostly got along. There were some racial tensions, however, which developed from the inclusion of Slow-Motion Jones, an African-American, particularly from the racist Captain Strong.; The unit's first action came on August 7th, 1942, when they were deployed to the Japanese-held island of Guadalcanal. Despite being shot at while parachuting in, and landing in a particularly vulnerable position, the SUES only had one casualty during their first assault, a broken leg by the Secret Stamp. This was mostly due to Captain Flame's devastating release of energy that incinerated the incoming wave of Japanese soldiers. This was inadvertent on Cortez's part. He had actually frozen up during the combat, but Sergeant Byrd had thrown a live grenade at him, knowing of his energy absorption and redirection abilities. When asked about Cortez later, Byrd said he just "needed a little push." Nearly a week later, on August 13th, the unit were still clearing out the underground tunnels of the island of hostile forces when they were ambushed by a large Japanese contingent. Cortez tried to absorb the energy from all of the explosions around him, but it was too much. Most the unit managed to get out of range before he expelled the energy, but "Jap-Buster" Johnson was too consumed with bloodlust to heed the Captain's warnings and was incinerated. Davey Drew was also caught in the explosion, but survived, suffering scars and blisters which his teammates thought "just made him crazier." Also injured was Slo-Mo Jones, who told the others to leave him and get out of danger. A stubborn Captain Strong, however, rescued Slo-Mo, seemingly having gained a grudging respect for the man after seeing him hold his own in combat. It appears that the Crazy SUES remained in the Pacific Theatre of war until shortly before the D-Day invasion of Normandy in June of 1944. The unit encountered hard fighting on the Pacific Islands and suffered more losses, including Vagabond, who was killed in an ambush the day before they shipped out.; The Crazy SUES were next tasked with being part of the Normandy invasion, their target being a small village called Sainte Mere Eglise. The unit was able to take the village, despite the continuing mental unhinging of Cortez. Later in June, the Blue Diamond and Invisible Man allowed themselves to be captured in order to discern German troop strengths in France. Once this was accomplished, they were rescued by the Young Avenger and Taxi Taylor. Once entrenched in Europe, the unit began periodically receiving new recruits, including the Victory Boys and American Ace. Cortez and Ace hit it off immediately and began a secret relationship together. The only others who knew about this were Slo-Mo, who followed the pair out into an alleyway where he saw them embrace and kiss, and Merzah, whose psychic and empathic abilities made him privy to Cortez's secrets. Shortly thereafter, Merzah approached Slo-Mo and told him that there would soon come a time when he would be tempted to betray Cortez and reveal his secret, but Merzah begged him not to when that time came.; Around this same time, Taxi Taylor and his T-Mech were transferred out of the Crazy SUES and into the direct command of the aforementioned Colonel Ledford, much to the chagrin of Captain America. In August, the unit participated in the liberation of Paris which presented some of the heaviest street fighting that the unit had yet encountered. It would only get worse, though, as the SUES marched across the French countryside on their way to Belgium. While scouting through one French town, the unit was ambushed and Moon Man was shot through the throat, killing him. The rest of the unit were pinned down under heavy fire with only Slo-Mo and Cortez able to provide help. Cortez, however, was having a breakdown, claiming that he just couldn't do it anymore. Desperate to help his friends, Slo-Mo threatened to reveal Cortez's secrets about his relationship with American Ace and his homosexuality if he didn't get out there and save the unit. Realizing that he had betrayed Cortez just as Merzah said he would, Slo-Mo watched as Cortez destroyed the enemy force, saving their friends.; By December of 1944 the SUES had pushed their way into Germany. They met particularly heavy resistance in Saarlautern when they were pinned down by a German Panzer and several columns of soldiers. The Victory Boys were mowed down by a German half-track during this attack. Despite the best efforts of the medic, Archie the Gruesome, the last living boy, Piotr, was too far gone to be saved. The Young Avenger had Archie pump him full of morphine before shooting the boy in the head with a pistol, ending his misery. Probably suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, Cortez wandered around the battlefield like a zombie before being fired upon by the Panzer. He redirected this explosion back towards the tank, however, completely decimating it.; The rest of the Crazy SUES activities during the Second World War are as yet unrecorded, though it is known that after the war ended, the surviving members of the squad were forced to sign a contract forbidding them from ever talking about what they witnessed.

+Equipment: Each member of the Space Squadron wears suits that can allow them to withstand the rigours of space travel and traverse the vacuum of space.
+Weapons: A variety of different futuristic weapons are at the Space Squadron's disposal, however they primarily use guns that fire "atomic bullets".
+Transportation: The Space Squadron have access to a variety of different rockets. Jet Dixon and his crew primarily use the Solar 1 rocketship.
+History:
+Not much is known about the origins of the Space Squadron, who hale from Earth-5106 a reality where space travel and exploration blossomed in the 1950s. They are the peacekeeping force that defends the united federation of planets run by the Galaxy organization, the governing body that evolved out of the Earth's United Nations. The Chief of Galaxy, Bennett "Blast" Revere also oversees Space Squadron missions and was once a former member.; By the year 2000 field command of the Space Squadron was given to Jet Dixon. Other members of Space Squadron at the time included Bennett's son Edgar, who resented being overlooked for command over Jet and frequently attempted to sabotage Space Squadron missions in an attempt to discredit Jet and usurp control of the Squadron, but always failed in his attempts; young cadet Rusty Blake and Saturnian science officer LLA 38. They group later admitted the Martian warrior Mxxptrm who took the nickname "Max". There is also a group in Space Squadron called Squad 3, which consists primarily of Saturnian scientists under LLA 38's command. The majority of other members and specific squads are unnamed and unknown.; The earliest Space Squadron missions found the group battling renegade members of the Oranois and Shperoid races as well as mad scientist Tombalo from the planet Uranos, and later helped the barbarian VDBN sect of Martians to learn the ways of peace. When anarchy swept the Mercurians of Mercury due to an unknown force causing their evil sides to awaken, the Space Squadron determined that it was due to the Sun moving too close to Mercury. Squad 3 developed a magnetic device that restored the Sun to its natural orbid ending the crisis. Using a newly developed Distrubo-Ray device the Space Squadron learned of an undersea volcanic eruption on the planet Neptune. Going to the aid of the Neptunians, the Squadron helped stop an invasion of the Neptunians natural enemies the vamperic Octopus-Men. The primary members of Space Squadron were later involved in the 2000 AD Olympics taking place on the Moon. There Moonmen Drago and Ura attempted to use their hypnotic powers to force Jet Dixon to throw the rocket competition to discredit the Earth, but this plot was thwarted by LLA 38. When Boz an intergalactic criminal held the Galaxy delegates hostage, the Space Squadron responded by dumping lethal Atomic Dust on him, killing him and ending his bid to conquer the solar system. The base members of the Squadron were then forced to participate in Kalandra's new experimental gas that would theoretically make them immune to pain, hunger and the elements. While the experiment succeded in the desired results, it also had the side-effect of causing painful, disorienting and completely random teleportations. However this worked to the Squadron's benefit as they stopped Edgar Revere from selling Atomic Dust to a band of renegade Frogmen.

+Equipment: Each member of the Space Sentinels had wore spacesuits and helmets that allowed them to breath in outer space and on other worlds that did not have oxygen based atmospheres. They also occasionally utilized "Zoom-Vests" harness mounted jet packs that allowed them to manoeuvre in space.
+Weapons: Space Sentinels had access to many various weapons, but most use a standard issue hand-held "Hydro-Gun".
+Transportation: Members of the Space Sentinels had rockets that could fly intergalactic distances that were powered by "atomic gas". Their primary weapons were "Hydro-Guns".
+History:
+The Space Sentinels haile from Earth-5391 a reality where space exploration and travel on Earth boomed in the 20th Century leading to the formation of the United Planets a coalition of planets in Earth's solar system that were dedicated to intergalactic peace. In order to obtain this goal they formed the Space Sentinels as a peacekeeping force in the known universe whose mandate was to stop conflict as well as explore new worlds, and whenever possible convince them to join the United Planets. The exact events leading to the formation of the Space Sentinels is unknown, however by the year 2075 they were commanded by Colonel Stone. Under Stone's command are Captain Speed Carter, Lieutenant Crash Morgan, and Cadet Johnny Day among others. Also among the Space Sentinels forces were Colonel Stone's daughter Stellar Stone (appearing to have a diplomatic function), scientist Doctor Venture, and veteran pilot Major Ram. The majority of the Space Sentinels recorded missions were usually single handedly resolved by Speed Carter and his young sidekick Johnny Day. Their most frequent foes were the Saturnians.; The earliest recorded Space Sentinel mission included breaking up an alliance between the Saturnians and Blobs. Later many of the Space Sentinels and their ships were captured by the Starmen led by Kop but were rescued by Speed Carter. Carter later stopped a Saturnian plot to steal a disintegration ray. Carter also saw the joining of the Birdmen of Uranus inducted into the United Planets, stopped mad scientist Professor Alfred Kurt and his Half-Men, brokered peace with the Lizardmen, and stopped a massive Saturnian robot.; The Space Sentinels later stopped a group of space pirates stationed on the Ghoul Planet from using reanimated corpses to look for them, made an alliance with the Core People who lived below the Earth in time to stop a Saturnian invasion, and wiped the Bem raiders. Later, Carter and Day personally established peace between the Positpeople and Neganatives of the Moon. The entire fleet was later integral in stopping the Jetmen from attacking the Earth, and stopping the deadly Mosquito Men, but not before they could murder Doctor Venture. Speed and Johnny later rescued a group of scientists who had been in suspended animation since the year 2050 from the Ice People. Upon their return to Earth, Speed, Johnny and the rest of the Space Sentinels defended Earth from the Beastmen, the conflict ending when Major Ram sacrificed himself to redirect a meteor set to collide with Earth, destroying the Beastmen planet in the process. The Space Sentinels also wiped out a Vegan invasion fleet that were tricked into flying into their defences by Speed Carter. The Space Sentinels next destroyed a pair of beings dubbed the Thing from Outer Space, in reality massive raiding ships created by space pirates. Speed and his friends next stopped the spies Comet and Bulka from infiltrating the Space Sentinels. Shortly thereafter, Speed and Johnny brokered peace between the warring Scorpeople and Centaurs.

+On the distant planet of Pera, circling a star at the farthest reaches of the Outer Rim, many millenia ago a substance was unearthed and became known as Core. Core made the Perans' weapons special and their warriors, led by Horn, freed their planet from slavery.; But weapons are not made for peace, and thus if idle too long, the Core would corrupt the warriors, and so they took the weapons off world, traveling the galaxy and freeing the oppressed before moving on. Various others joined their efforts and they came to be known as the Space Knights; however, their endeavors drew the ire of a monster named Lurgh, who united the Space Knights' enemies in an effort to hunt them to extinction. To this end, Lurgh's forces pursued Horn's warriors back to Pera, destroying the planet and the Space Knights along with it, their name and exploits fading into the stuff of myth.; Then a Kree named Mahia discovered a piece of Core, or maybe it was the other way around, but she used her newfound power to reform the Space Knights, beginning with a rescue of J'k from being assimilated, and together they helped save Punch's homeworld from an alien invasion.; The three of them then teamed up with Rocket Raccoon to rescue another Space Knight, Earo, along with Drax the Destroyer, from Durgh on Hool.; Sometime later J'k and Punch were on their way to rescue Earo and Mahia from Caber and the Duynans when Wink first joined the team, hurling the Tuatha de Danaan off a cliff on Duyna.; The Space Knights next encountered Iqa, Hilla Rollo, Pik Rollo, and Tarna on Wenb when both groups were looking for a purifying elixir. In the Space Knight's case, they were looking for it to restore Wink's broken wings. After settling their differences, the Space Knights accompanied the other aliens to Earth, where Mania, the person they were looking the elixir for, lived. After helping Venom subdue Mania and inject her with the elixir, Iqa, Hilla, Pik, Tarna, and 803 decided to join the Space Knights while Venom remained on Earth together with Mania.

+Trivia: Iron Man Vol 5 writer Christopher Cantwell once stated on Twitter that he had wondered what to name this team, and all he could think of at the time was "the Alternates."; Frog-Man was the main proponent for the team being named. His suggestions were "Star Warriors" and "God Fighters." Scarlet Spider shot down the first idea arguing it sounded too close to Star Wars.; The line-up of the Space Friends is mostly centered around the works of J.M. DeMatteis, a writer that Cantwell is fan of. DeMatteis wrote for Defenders Vol 1, which starred Hellcat and Gargoyle, with the latter having been created by DeMatteis. DeMatteis also worked on the Scarlet Spider during the Clone Saga, and created Frog-Man.
+History:
+The Space Friends, as eventually christened by Iron Man, was a previously-unnamed team of heroes recruited by Iron Man and Hellcat with Halcyon's help to stop the megalomaniac android Korvac. They were specifically picked due to being outside Iron Man's regular support network in order to avoid tipping off Korvac. These heroes consisted of Gargoyle, Misty Knight, Scarlet Spider, and Frog-Man.; The team nearly died during their first outing. Investigating a massive radiation signature they believed to be Korvac's spaceship, the heroes were lured to a decoy spacecraft that detonated. They only survived due to Gargoyle using his powers to shield his teammates. They returned to Iron Man and Hellcat, who had confronted Korvac in the meantime. Korvac had broken Stark's neck, so his allies tinkered with his armor to help it hold him together. The heroes were then joined by War Machine, who had escaped from Korvac's grasp, and they took off to space to race Korvac to Taa II, where the android intended to reclaim the Power Cosmic and ascend to godhood.; During the chase, Stark's allies sent an SOS which was heeded by Stilt-Man, who had stationed himself on an alien planet. He secretly used a teleporter beam to suddenly pluck Iron Man away to his space colony, Megiddo. Tony's team continued pursuing Korvac and locked in combat with his ship until they managed to evade him. Although Hellcat managed to telepathically reach out to Stark in Megiddo, she decided to take his team to Taa II and stop Korvac without him if necessary. After defeating Stilt-Man, Iron Man and his newfound ally, Avro-X, were facilitated the arrival at Taa II by the Living Tribunal. Stark and Avro-X intercepted Korvac but were defeated, which also resulted in Avro's death. Tony's team subsequently arrived and helped Tony continue pursuing Korvac. At Frog-Man's request, Iron Man decided to name the team. Under the influence of morphine due to his injuries, Stark named it the Space Friends. The Space Friends were also joined by the original Human Torch after he was freed from Korvac's mind-control.; Despite Iron Man and the Space Friends overpowering Korvac and his acolytes, the villain managed to tap into the Power Cosmic at the last second, and Iron Man followed suit as a last-ditch effort to stop him. Both rivals attained godhood and engaged in combat in cosmic scale, and Iron Man defeated Korvac. The Space Friends returned to Earth and, minus the Scarlet Spider and Misty Knight, who were occupied with affairs with the Beyond Corporation, they reconvened over their concerns for the cosmically-empowered Iron Man. After Stark used his powers to make the entirety of New York City as smart as himself and chaos ensued, Hellcat contacted Doctor Doom to devise a plan to strip him of his cosmic power. The Space Friends were joined by the Silver Surfer, who was meant to power the device created by Doom. Hellcat lured Iron Man into a trap, and he lashed out after learning her intentions. Corrupted by the Power Cosmic, Iron Man killed Doom, the Surfer and the Space Friends until Hellcat was the last person standing. She managed to snap Tony out of his rage, and after a heart-to-heart, he relinquished the Power Cosmic. Before doing so, he returned everyone he killed to life. With the threat of both Korvac and the Iron God passed, the Space Friends disbanded, but they turned the group into a fantasy baseball league.

+First appearance: Iron Man Vol 5 23
+Created by: Christopher Cantwell; Ángel Unzueta
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Macau, China
+Notes: The identity of the Spymaster that appears as the leader of Source Control in Iron Man Vol 5 23 is never provided. The fact that Iron Man Vol 5 featured Donnie Gill wearing the Blizzard costume previously unique to his late predecessor Gregor Shapanka will be used as a precedent to assume that this Spymaster is Sinclair Abbott despite wearing a costume that belonged to his predecessors, since he was the only Spymaster confirmed alive at the time.
+History:
+Source Control was the premier international black market for high-grade technology and weapons. It was run by Spymaster, and its hub was in Macau, China. After running into Source Control operative Switchback, Iron Man learned of its existence. Realizing that he needed to dismantle Source Control covertly, he set out to use his entire fortune to buy up their catalog and then dismantle it himself.; Around the same time, Source Control operative Vic Martinelli discovered that his employer had gotten its hands on the rings of the deceased Mandarin. He attempted to reach out to Iron Man for help to deal with the rings, but Source Control caught wind of his betrayal and sent the Titanium Man to kill him. Iron Man and War Machine investigated Martinelli's murder, and discovered the presence of the rings in the equation. During a confrontation with the Titanium Man, Iron Man faked a near-lethal injury as a cover for his plan to subvert Source Control.; Stark used Clay Wilson as a frontman buyer, and had him spend over sixty billion dollars on Source Control's catalog over a month, using dozens of different shell companies to cover his tracks. However, the top tier of Source Control eventually noticed that the influx of buyers traced back to a single person. During a meeting to purchase Time Displacement Blasters, Source Control operatives used one of these on Wilson, sending him a week backward in time. Spymaster picked up Clay and manipulated him into believing that Stark was using him. Sometime around this time, Spymaster sold the Mandarin's rings to the Cobalt Man, unaware that his buyer was actually Ironheart in disguise, who was operating independently of Stark. Spymaster kept the listing for the rings up to lure Stark, who ended up arranging a meeting to buy them personally. With Wilson's help, Spymaster cornered Stark and War Machine, introducing in the process the Cobalt Man with the rings, still unaware of her true identity. Ironheart used the rings to teleport Spymaster and his assosicates to the Darkforce Dimension dimension, and subsequently revealed herself to Iron Man and War Machine.

They managed to get away when they tagged Spider-Man with a temporary poison and escaped in a boat.; There Spider-Man was attacked by the Spider-Squad who again managed to escape, but not before Spider-Man could tag their car with a spider-tracer. Tracking them to an abandoned barn, Spider-Man battled the Spider-Squad once more. In spite of being caught up in a giant fake spider-web, Spider-Man managed to defeat them all. When looking for Klemmer, Spider-Man found him unconscious under a pile of hay. He suddenly realized that someone was trying to frame Klemmer and that he was probably walked right into a trap. Sure enough, when Spider-Man got Klemmer and the Spider-Squad to safety, the building was blown up by Anton DeLionatus, the film's financier who was hoping to cash in on the insurance of the failed project.

When they faced him, he let them think they defeated him, so he could discover what they wanted to do next. They robbed a bank, but soon Grizzly and Gibbon found out that this was not what they wanted to do, and started fighting with Spot and Kangaroo. After quickly defeating the latter, they "found out" that Spider-Man was only faking being unconscious.

+Transportation: The Spider-Men are teleported through realities by either the Beyonder or Madame Web.
+Trivia: Spider-Verse writer Dan Slott has stated that he intended to add this team to Spider-Verse Vol 1 2's last story, but took them out to avoid confusion because similiar versions of some of its members had already been introduced in the tie-in comic Superior Spider-Man Vol 1 32, such as the Six-Armed Spider-Man of Earth-92100 and the Armored Spider-Man of Earth-14132 and it could have created confusion due to the fact that both of these Spider-Men were already dead by the time of Spider-Verse #2.
+History:
+The Spider-Men were a team formed by the Beyonder and Madame Web. In the Beyonder's future, Spider-Carnage destroyed all of reality, but when the blast that was destroying all realities reached the Beyonder's dimension, he stopped and reversed time. He and his assistant, Madame Web, then trained various Spider-Men from different realities in order to stop Spider-Carnage.; They also briefly encountered Spider-Boy from another reality, who ended up there due to the Web of Life and Destiny unraveling, though he soon disappeared from there, causing everyone present to forget about the encounter.; All the Spider-Men were then brought to a world devastated, by Spider-Carnage. The Spider-Men then teamed up with the Scarlet Spider, who was a native of this reality, and set out to defeat Spider-Carnage. The heroes were able to stop Spider-Carnage's plan, but the evil wall-crawler managed to escape them.; The Beyonder tracked Spider-Carnage to another reality, this one belonging to the Armored Spider-Man. A dimension where Spider-Man is a celebrity, well loved, and rich. This time Spider-Carnage plans to destroy each reality, one at a time. The Beyonder only had enough power to send one, so he sent the Spider-Man of Earth-92131. There he meets the beautiful Gwen Stacy, the fiancée of Armored Spider-Man. His attorney, Wilson Fisk, became involved with Spider-Carnage and captured Spider-Man. Luckily Gwen recognized that Spider-Carnage was not her Spider-Man and released the good one. Unable to defeat the symbiote powered former hero, Spider-Man used his head to get to Spider-Carnage. Spider-Man found Uncle Ben, dead in most other realities except this one. Ben was able to talk Spider-Carnage out of his insane plan and told him to fight the symbiote. Unable to fully separate, Spider-Carnage threw himself into a portal that completely destroyed him. Spider-Man finally got to say goodbye to Uncle Ben, and he told Peter just how proud he was of him.; After these events, all the Spider-Men were presumably returned to their native realities.

+History:
+===Fighting the Sinister Six===; The Team was formed by Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. via a dimensional teleporter to oppose the Multiversal Sinister Six. Most members were Spider-Totems from different realities.; During the invasion, Spider-Man ran into Morlun, who he thought was dead, and was able to once again force him out of this reality. Unfortunately, the arrival of an alternate Spider-Woman brought him back. The combination of Morlun's failure to take her life force combined and the number of Spider Hybrids was a beacon for Morlun's family. After it was revealed that the Inheritors were vulnerable to radiation, the Spider-Men sent them to Earth-3145, a fully irradiated world: the world.; With the Inheritors defeated, the heroes could place all their attention on the Sinister Six. The Six had taken advantage of the Spiders being distracted by reactivating Doctor Octopus' laboratories, creating a nuclear missile, creating more Mechtopi and hiring Hydro-Man and Silver Sable to end the Spider-Men. The team was able to take out Doc Ock's weapons and convince Sable to join the team. They were able to corner the Six's leader, Mysterio, but he had rigged a Sinister Ship to detonate. The Spiders were able to escape and saw a new group entering through the portal.; ===Symbiote Dimensions===; Agent Venom had lost control of the Venom Symbiote, who began to prepare for a symbiote invasion of New York City. After failing to contain Venom, he teamed up with the Spider-Man of Earth-94 to keep track of the other symbiotes across the city. The two felt the resurgence of their old symbiotes and looked for ways to prevent remerging. They failed, and Parker once again became a host of the Venom Symbiote, with Reilly becoming Spider-Carnage.; Spider-Man was found by Silk who took him to S.H.I.E.L.D., who gave him drugs to lessen the symbiote's control. They eventually failed and he would have lost if not for Superior Spider-Man. Seeing Otto alive and in a new Peter Parker body shocked him enough to remain himself. Otto revealed that he had created an "Anti-Symbiote Ray" that disrupted symbiote's control over their hosts and the two began systematically freeing the human members of Symbiote Hive.; ===Planet of the Symbiotes===; While working in his lab on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, Peter was confronted by the Spider-Man of the Hellhounds. He claimed to want to destroy all of Earth's technology. While investigating the Hellhounds, he found Doppelganger attempting to steal Black Tarantula's interdimensional teleporter. While he was able to stop Doppelganger, someone else stole the teleporter. Spider-Man teamed-up with Black Tarantula and the two discovered the thief to be Poison.; Peter interrogated one of Poison's accomplices, Spider-Venom, and learned of Poison's plot to return to Klyntar and amass a symbiote army and control the Multiverse. He took members of the Spider-Men and used the portal to access the symbiote homeworld. Peter believed the symbiotes to be an ever-present threat to reality and subsequently created sonic emitters with the goal of mass genocide; however, Peter couldn't bring himself to activate them.; Tired of Earth-41940, Anansi the Spider God planned to destroy the universe. The Spider-Men reassembled the Infinity Stones and confronted him, only for Anansi to erase the stones from existence. The spiders admitted defeat and left to spend their last moments with their loved ones. Touched by their affection, Anansi decided to spare their reality.

+History:
+===First Totem War===; While surveying the Multiverse, Captain Britain Corpsman Spider-UK came across the Inheritors slaughtering Spider Hybrids. He told his superiors of the chaos and was sent to protect the spiders and stop the Inheritors.; Billy eventually made his way to Earth-13, where Spider-Man was still bonded to the Captain Universe power. Since he believed the Inheritors wouldn't dare fight someone with the powers of a god, Spider-UK found a safe haven for his team.; When Inheritor member Daemos went to Earth-616 to kill the Mainstream Scarlet Spider, the Spiders were able to add all of 616's Spider-Totems to their team. They were especially happy to recruit Mainstream Spider-Man, who they made their leader due to him killing Morlun twice in the past.; Later, the team were confronted by another team of Spider-Totems hoping to recruit them into their ranks. It didn't go well due to their leader, the Superior Spider-Man's demeanor. To make matters worse, Scarlet Spider and Silk couldn't be masked by Otto's Cloaking Device. As a result, Daemos found them.; Despite the loss of Otto's agent Spider-Cyborg, the combined teams killed Daemos. During a heated argument between Otto and Old Man Spider, Daemos reappeared accompanied by his siblings, Brix and Bora. The teams, outmatched, retreated to Earth-13. There, Otto quickly merged the two teams under his command.; However, Mainstream Spidey argued that Otto was too ruthless to be leader. Peter punched him in the face, prompting a fight. After Otto was defeated, Peter convinced him that they should work together under Peter's leadership. After conversing with the Spiders away on missions, he left to help the injured Spider-Man Noir, but not before sending Miles Morales and Spider-Man of Earth-12041 to recruit more members.; While they were gone, Earth-13 was attacked by the Inheritors. To show that they shouldn't have ambushed them, Captain Universe easily killed Jennix. Despite this, Solus was able to kill Captain Universe. In a moment of panic, Morlun was able to snatch the totem known as Scion: Benjy Parker!; Believing that Solus was weakened by the excess energy, the team randomly attacked Solus, causing them to lose the Prince of Arachne and Arachnosaur. During the confusion, Morlun was able take Benjy back to Earth-001 with Spider-Girl failing to stop him.; Spider-UK called Mainstream Spider-Man to come back, and Peter, Gwen, and Anya returned with three Japanese Spiders: Mangaverse Spider-Man, Spider-Man J, and Supaidāman and his giant robot. Unfortunately, Leopardon stood no chance and was easily defeated by Solus. The team then retreated to a random Earth.; While checking on the Spiders away on missions, Jennix revealed that he had hacked their communication systems and had sent their location to his sister Verna. She and her Hounds attacked the Spiders.; During the battle, Mainstream Spider-Woman sent over scrolls given to her from the Master Weaver, explaining the Inheritors plans to Mainstream Spidey. Moments later, Silk contacted him and told him to come to her location.; Arriving on Earth-3145, where the Inheritors can't follow since it was irradiated, the Spiders followed webbed arrows drawn by Silk to their new safe zone: Sims Tower. Inside was Ben Parker, this world's totem.; The away groups were able to destroy the Inheritors' cloning facility and their ability to listen in on the Spiders. Unfortunately, The Scion, The Bride, and The Other all made their way to Loomworld. Kaine transformed into his "The Other" form in rage from Ben Reilly's death and killed Solus. This left the Inheritors with more purpose, but in panic.; The scrolls revealed the motives of Karn and the Mainstream Spider-Girl lead a team to recruit Karn. Although skeptical at first, Karn joined them in hopes of living his life on his terms.; With the Inheritors capable of preforming the ritual, the Spider-Army teleported to Loomworld. Spider-Man and the Spider-Army managed to interrupt the ritual the Inheritors were performing. Morlun cornered Spider-Man, and started feeding off his essence when Peter used his wrist teleporter to transport himself and Morlun to the lethally radioactive New York of Earth-3145. Silk recovered Peter while leaving Morlun there. The rest of the Inheritors were also brought to Earth-3145 after being defeated. Spider-Man gave them the knowledge of the shelter in Sims Tower, in order not to let them die.; With the Inheritors dealt with, the spider-totems were no longer under risk. However, Otto Octavius had killed the Master Weaver, the controller of the Web of Life and Destiny, for which each Spider-Men could no longer go home using their teleporters.; As Spider-UK was using his own teleporter to open portals to another realities, Octavius started destroying the Web of Life and Destiny, in an attempt to free himself from the future he had in store for. The Spider-Men of Earth-616 united forces to take him down. By reading the inscription in Morlun's dagger, it was discovered another Spider could replace the Master Weaver. Karn, who had enough spider essence to act like one, decided to become the new Master Weaver. With a new Master Weaver in place, the Web of Life and Destiny was restored, and Octavius was sent back to his past, losing the memory of the most recent events in the process. With no more problems to confront, Spider-Man and the rest of the spiders were sent back home.; ===Second Totem War===; When the Superior Octopus fused the Jackal's and Jennix's technology in order to create new clone bodies to himself, Web-Warriors feared the Inheritors would return. This proves to be true, as they have been sending Spider-Bots to monitor them, the Inheritors destroyed those bots and used their technology to hack the cloning tubes and make their triumphant return.; Verna would get Spider-Gwen's Dimensional Travel Watch and trap her in another dimension while the Spider-UK and The Spider-Man would be killed. They were forced to retreat and explode the lab in order to destroy the cloning tubes. In order to win, they would get other Spider-People trough the Multiverse, but, while vulnerable, Karn would be absorbed by Verna, because his time as the Master Weaver has made him a Spider-Totem.; While the Spider-Army was assembling it's own team, Superior Octopus (who now returned as the Superior Spider-Man) was too, people who would agree to kill the Inheritors. Miles contacted Otto's team and planned an attack against the Inheritors but Otto disagreed. Some of the Superior Spider-Army were forced to rescue them, being trapped at the universe of the deceased Cosmic Spider-Man.; Meanwhile, the Inheritors were planning to bring their father back, using the Jackal's cloning technology. They managed to create a clone body to him, but without the crystal containing his soul, it would be just an empty shell. So they sent Verna after it, but the Superior Spider-Army also sent their team after it in order to avoid Solus' return. The only problem to her is that it was at Earth-3145, the same radioactive Earth the Inheritors were trapped. She succumbed to the radiation, but was able to sent Spider-Woman and the crystal at the Inheritors' base.; Having now the Crystal, they could finally bring their father back to life. Both the Spider-Armies decided to drain the cosmic lifeforce of Earth-13 to summon Earth-616's Captain Universe and face them, with Miles Morales becoming it's host. Spider-Nor-Man would destroy the Web of Life and Destiny, since he believed it would be a better plan to trap the Inheritors in Earth-616, making it impossible to travel between dimension.; However, Spider-Gwen acquired this ability while in the dimension she was trapped in, recruiting as many spider-people as she could, including the Mainstream Peter Parker, after his big fight with Morlun, leaving his enemy out of the final battle it was to come. Despite the destruction of the Web of Life and Destiny, Spiderling, Spider-Girl of Earth-616 and Spider-Woman of Earth-982 managed to create mystical armors with the Web to avoid being consumed.; Otto pretended to give Ben Reilly, the former Jackal, to the Inheritors, since Jennix would consume him and, because of the many times Ben died and was revived, it would destroy "his maniacal mind". Solus finally returned but his return was short lived since killed by Miles, now with the power of the Captain Universe, using the sword vigor because Earth-616's Peter told the group to follow Otto's lead when he arrived thanks to Spider-Gwen. With Solus killed and the Inheritors beaten, the Spider-People created new clone baby bodies to them with no memory of their past life when it was revealed their hunger could be reversed and Solus put it in them so he wouldn't be the only monster. They would be adopted by Spider-Ma'am, an alternate version of Aunt May. Morlun's final fate remains unknown. The Spider-People would then return to their dimensions, and Gwen would later visit the families and friends of Spider-UK and the other Spider-People who were killed.; ==Failed Recruitments==; # MC2 Peter Parker; # Spider-Cyborg; # Assassin Spider-Man; # Goblin

+History:
+The Ghost Racers were people from all around the Battleworld who came to be possessed by an Igniter Spirit. For being too powerful, the hosts of such power were all sent to the Killiseum, in Doomstadt, where they would be forced to race through its dangerous circuit to entertain the arena's audience. In case they succeeded in gaining the first place prize, they would be granted a temporary freedom from the arena, while the rest would be sent to its dungeons to be tortured by Chief Zadkiel, who was able to control the Igniter Spirits.; The night Arcade planned to get rid of Robbie Reyes, the most recent Igniter Spirit to enter the Ghost Races who had won every race in that season, the unexpected happened: while being chased by Arcade's killer automaton, the Venus Compiler, Robbie and his Spirit of Ignition managed to break free of Zadkiel's control and escape the arena through a portal. As Zadkiel wasn't able to detect Reyes' presence, an enraged Arcade commanded him to send all the other Ghost Racers to hunt him down.; Although Robbie avoided the Thors, the Spirits of Ignition found him and they battled through the streets of Doomstadt. They destroyed Robbie's Battle-Charger, forcing him to confront them directly. While battling Alejandra Jones, Robbie repelled one of her attacks and it ended up destroying Slade's blindfold, making him get out of control as it unlocked his dormant powers. Slade then used his Penance Stare in Robbie, which somehow temporarily broke the link between him and Zadkiel. Free, Slade broke Zadkiel's control over the others by shutting their powers down. However, as Robbie was the only one who Zadkiel couldn't control, the other racers let him get away and stayed behind. They were all returned to the Killiseum and punished for their treachery.; Arcade made Robbie return to the Killiseum by putting his brother, Gabe, in his place (as he was possessed by an Igniter Spirit too) in the Ghost Races. After saving his brother from T-Rider Rex, Robbie decided to put an end in Arcade's sadistic games in the Killiseum, so he used his Penance Stare in Slade once again to free the Spirits of Ignition, like he did earlier, and they destroyed the Venus Compiler. Furious by the Spirits' resistance, Zadkiel tried to kill Gabe, but Robbie switched places with him and ate Zadkiel's soul. Afterwards, Slade used his vengeance-seeking Penance Stare to kill the wicked people present at the Killiseum and escaped along with the other Ghost Racers through another portal opened by Eli, running over an injured Arcade in the process. Freed, the Ghost Racers vowed to punish the wicked and corrupt with their power, and thus were born the Spirits of Vengeance.

+The Spider-Clones were an army of Synthezoid clones of Spider-Man created by Arnim Zola's Hydra through many failed attempts until they coveted Doctor Octopus' assistance. When Scarlet Spider came looking for Doctor Octopus for revenge, he sent the leftover prototype Synthezoids from the Project Kaine program to keep him busy as the doctor searched for his data.; One of these clones ventured out locating Spider-Man and absorbed some of his life force. When Spidey and Spider-Woman located the lab where it came from, the clone followed and shared the life force with the other synthezoids to stabilize them, making then into nearly identical copies of Peter. Beneath the lab, Ock also laid a batch of Synthezoid copies of Scarlet Spider. Together, Peter, MJ, and Ben battled the clone army, as they're trying to reach Ock. As the clones were unstable, they degenerated and collapsed after a single hit and dissolved.; Kaine was the only survivor left due to absorbing Spider-Man's life energy that stabilized his synth DNA and began pursuing the spiders to absorb their energy.

+Notes: The Spirit-Flayers of Carcosa were possibly inspired by the Mind flayer of Dungeons & Dragons (inspired by the cover of a Lovecraftian tale The Burrowers Beneath) and/or by its namesake in the Lovecraftian-inspired TV series Stranger Things (premiered on Netflix on July 15, 2016), himself named after the D&D character). Carcosa was a fictional city created by Ambrose Bierce in his short story "An Inhabitant of Carcosa" (1886), re-used in Robert W. Chambers' book of short horror stories The King in Yellow (1895), and later afterwards by H.P. Lovecraft, August Derleth, and other writers of the Cthulhu Mythos.; It is unknown so far if the Spirits-Flayers of Carcosa are a title, a group, or a type of demons.
+History:
+The Spirit-Flayers of Carcosa bought two billion human souls from Mog'rys and Borss, two brothers, lesser demons and brokers of souls (who had themselves borrowed the souls) from Mephisto) in exchange for vast riches.

+History:
+Hobie Brown aka Spider-Punk operated as musician and protector of the New York City along with the company of his super-powered friends, such as Captain Anarchy, Robbie Banner and RiotHeart. They were responsible for defeating President Osborn and his VENOM-enhanced army, the Annihilation Wave, the Universal Church of Truth and even Kang the Conglomerator from the future.; After some of his enemies took to calling him "Spider-Punk", Hobie only leaned more into the punk theme. During the fight against Kraven he first tried using the name "Spider-Band" for himself, Karl and Riri, but it didn't take at first. However, after they were joined by Kamala Khan and discovered a secret network of Osborn's surveillance bases that all fed into the hub in Washington, D.C., it became apparent that the problem had to be stopped at the source. Accepting the name Spider-Band for themselves, the others set out on tour for D.C. in the Spider-Van, leaving Robbie behind to watch out for their base.; Along the way they battled Marauders and Kingpin alongside Daredevil Drummer of Philly. Upon arrival in D.C. however, they were shocked to find out Osborn himself still alive and waiting for them. Having walked into a trap, they were subdued by Osborn, Officer Venom, War Sentry and Ta$kma$ter and prepared them the public execution. However, the event was interrupted by timely arrival of the Mattea and Robbie, who freed their friends and helped them turn the tide. Together, they took down Osborn once again, officially welcomed Mattea into their ranks and declared that Spider-Band's first tour was dope.

+Notes: According to the studio, there are 280 Spider-Totems that have membership in the Spider Society. Only 95 of them, meanwhile, have been uniquely named, either by the studio or having already had pre-established names. This number was updated to around 630 (with 150 identified) one month later.
+History:
+The Spider Society was created by Miguel O'Hara of Earth-928B following the Multiversal events of Earth-1610B. He would recruit several Spider-Totems from alternate realities, beginning with ’67 Spider-Man and later including Peni Parker (SP//dr) and Peter B. Parker Spider-Man, with the initial intention of forming an alliance between different Spider-Totems.; The mission of the Spider Society was capturing and containing “anomalies” that either threaten the fabric of the Multiverse or did not align with predesignated events, as well as making sure that every event in a Spider-Totem’s life adhered to the “canon”, a set of life moments that Miguel interpreted as absolute points where, should the events change, the fabric of the universe could be undone. Miguel also took it upon himself to ban further Spider-Totems that had previously caused Multiversal events from becoming part of the Spider Society (with the exception of Peter and Peni), before eventually making an exception for Gwen Stacy (Spider-Woman).; After many months, the Spider Society grew to hundreds of members, including those previously involved in other Multiversal events that they had not caused. In addition to Peter, Miguel also installed Jessica Drew (Spider-Woman) and Ben Reilly (Scarlet Spider) as his direct subordinates.; Things came to a head, however, when the villain Spot began creating Multiversal devastation of an even larger scale. Rather than contain the threat, however, Miguel instead chose to temporarily let him be so he could kill Spot’s reality’s native Jefferson Morales. He also directed his focus to Jefferson’s son Miles, the reality’s Spider-Totem whom, in his rage and delusion, he blamed for all of the other anomalies because he was bitten by a spider from another universe and the reality’s previous Spider-Man died protecting him. Determined to save his father despite the potential risk to the Multiverse, and in order to flee from getting imprisoned by Miguel for possibly causing the destruction of Earth-50101B, Miles escaped to Earth-42. These events fractured the Spider Society somewhat, with Miguel expelling Gwen for her close connection to Miles, and others leaving with her to locate and save Miles.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: A project created by Spider-Man 2099 and Madame Web to help safeguard the Multiverse in case it ever came under threat
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+===Creation===; Sometime after the business with Shathra, Madame Web (Julia Carpenter) and Spider-Man 2099 began conceiving an idea of a team of superheroes called the "Spider-Society" to protect the Multiverse if it ever came under harm. At the time, the idea was only a mere thought and not yet a legit thing, however when Madame Web eventually felt a disturbance within the Web of Life and Destiny and summoned Miguel. She informed him of this and told him it was time to form the Spider-Society and left him with a load of options, Miguel was hesitant on some but not all but seeing its importance told her he'd give her a full roster soon. However, before he could begin creating the roster he was attacked by a group of villains led by the Green Goblin.; Miguel would later wake up in a hospital where he overheard his captors arguing and so quickly escaped only to found out and followed by the Goblin. As he ran away from the Goblin he thought about the members he'd like to add to the team such as Arana, Spider-Woman, perhaps even Spider-Ham, however his multi-tasking did not do him well as even with LYLA's help he was defeated. However, he deduced the identity of the Goblin, that being Gwen Stacy, when he asked her what happened to her she stated that nothing did and strongly implied that she was taking control of her destiny for once and that meant being the Goblin. Arana then came and temporarily knocked Goblin out, but she quickly got back up and trapped them under Pumpkin Bombs which they fortunately survived.; Sometime later, Bailey Briggs would come to Anya with complaints about how she reweaved him into the web but that her spell made it so no one remembered him. Anya, Cindy, and Julia would at first tell Bailey they couldn't help him as they were helping "Spider-Duck" get back to his unknown home dimension. However, Bailey easily deduced that "Spider-Duck" was really just Howard in a duck costume causing them to kick Howard out. With that out of the way they decided to help Bailey only for him to be pulled into the Web of Life and Destiny. Cindy then figured if they didn't find a way to pull Bailey back out that he'd be trapped there forever falling into an endless amount of universes.; They would attempt to pull Bailey back out only for it to result in him swapping places with Takuya Yamashiro of Earth-51778. Bailey would be put in charge of helping Leopardon face off against King Bowler a kaiju version of his own villain Gutterball, with the help of Takuya he would manage to defeat the Kaiju just in time for Takuya to be put back into his own universe and Bailey into Earth-67.; As a result of being put on Earth-67, the Spider-Man of that world would be brought to the Spider-Society and would help Bailey take down the Green Goblin. Once the task was done, Peter would return to his universe and Bailey would once again be sent into the Web of Life and Destiny and would arrive on Earth-51914 taking the place of that world's Spider-Man who would help him fight HotShot. Bailey would be weirded out by this Peter's ability to will Hostess cakes into existence but before he could question it, that Peter was sent back to his universe while Bailey was sent back into the Web of Life and Destiny. Anya would try another spell to pull Bailey out but this would just turn him into different versions of himself until he was unintentionally plucked from the web entirely with his strand falling through the Multiverse. Julia then realized they needed a lifeline and would go to find Spider-Man of Earth-616 and make a deal with him to save Bailey meanwhile Bailey would arrive on Earth-982.; Bailey's strand would then leave this universe as Anya attempted to hold things together, Cindy would then notify Anya that Bailey's strand had passed by Earth-982 and was about to fall off the map entirely. Bailey would then arrive on Earth-92131 to the Spider-Men's shock they would attempt to console him after he broke down in front of them only to disappear out of the universe to the horror of that universe's native Spider-Man. Peter would then donate the extra memories he had gotten from the last Spider-Verse adventure which would cause Bailey to be restored to the web entirely meaning everyone he had ever teamed up with now remembered him.; After the two got out of the pumpkin bomb mess, the both chose a group of Spider-Totems to go recruit. They would recruit the following: Night-Spider (Felicia Hardy), Spider-Ramen (Peter Potnoodle), Spider-Girl (May Parker), Spider-Rex (Pter Ptarker), Kraven the Hunter-Spider (Sergei Kravinoff), Spider-Punk (Hobie Brown), Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew), Spider-Boy (Bailey Briggs), Spider-UK (Zarina Zahari), Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Spider-Man (Pavitr Prabhakar), Ghost-Spider (Gwen Stacy), and Spider-Ham. Arana would then recruit Weapon VIII from Earth-72 helping him defeat Black Widow (Yelena Belova) before the two left to join the rest of the Spider-Society.; ===Attack of the Sinister Squadron===; Eventually the Spider-Society would be called together seemingly by Madame Web only for her, Arana, 616-Peter, and Miguel to not show up much to everyone's confusion. Suddenly Arana would arrive only for the Sinister Squadron to attack with all of the Spider-Society seemingly being easily defeated. Madame Web would then arrive and order a retreat upon seeing how outgunned they were and the fact her powers were on the fritz, a few would manage to escape and Madame Web would send them after Miguel. However, upon going to rescue Miguel it'd be revealed that Kraven the Hunter-Spider was a traitor and a spy and secretly working for the Squadron.; Together they'd defeat the Kraven and Jack only for the rest of the Squadron to come at them on Earth-42, after briefly going on the offensive but failing they'd travel to Earth-71490 a reality in which Ravencroft Institute had not failed to keep villains behind bars. However, the Squadron managed to follow them there too with it being revealed the leader was a villainous version of Aunt May who'd taken the Madame Web mantle. Every member of the Spider-Society was defeated except for Weapon VIII who Venom 2099 just punched into a wall in an attempt to kill, but due to his experimentation he survived and prepared to fight off the Sinister Squadron.; The rest of the Spider-Society would be locked up with Miguel and Julia heading to Earth-2099 in an attempt to find out why Julia's powers weren't working. Unfortunately, the two would be recaptured by the Sinister Squadron. Back at the Squadron's home base the Spider-Society would brood and try to cheer each other up only to come to the conclusion that due to Jessica Drew of Earth-332's universe being different from the rest of the Web of Life and Destiny she could access her powers long enough to glitch out her collar. Meanwhile, Weapon VIII would get into the base and take down a J. Jonah Jameson Hobgoblin and another villain and get to Aunt May Madame Web's control room only to be confronted by Green Goblin Gwen and be defeated by her briefly only for her to reveal her traitorous plans. When Gwen was briefly distracted by the Squadron he'd take her out, May Web would advise him to surrender when the rest of the Spider-Verse arrived but before they could attack she revealed she had everyone important on her table and soon the Web of Life and Destiny would bow to her.

+Species / origin: The Squadron Supreme was formed when a number of super-heroes joined forces in order to stop an insane alien robot.
+Reality: Earth-712
+Base of operations: Utopia Isle, Satellite Headquarters, Squadron City
+Notes: Most of the Squadron Supreme characters are strong and deliberate parallels to those of DC Comics' Justice League, such as Hyperion standing in for Superman, Nighthawk replacing Batman, and Power Princess replacing Wonder Woman. More information about character counterparts can be found on the individual characters' pages.; The MAX title Supreme Power Vol 1 also has shown versions of these characters with some notable differences.
+Trivia: During the Avengers' momentous crossover with the Justice League of America in JLA/Avengers Vol 1, Avengers' member Hawkeye derisively called the JLA a bunch of "Squadron Supreme wannabes".
+History:
+The Squadron Supreme were a team of super-heroes from Earth-712, a parallel reality of Earth-616. The team initially formed in order to stop an insane alien robot. They have clashed with the Avengers on several occasions. During one of these battles, they became aware that U.S. President Nelson W. Rockefeller of their reality had come under the control of the Serpent Crown. They publicly denounced the government, causing Rockefeller to be ousted from office. Nighthawk was then elected the new President of the United States. After the Over-Mind and Null the Living Darkness left their world in chaos, Hyperion and Power Princess decided that the best option was to take control of their world.; They used Behavior Modification Devices to forcefully rehabilitate a number of criminals and force them to join them in their mission. They called this the Utopia Program after Power Princess's race, the Utopians. Nighthawk immediately resigned as a member in protest of the unethical leanings surrounding the Utopia Program and later formed his own team, calling them the Redeemers. Several members infiltrated the Squadron and undid the behavior modification. The Redeemers then confronted the Squadron at their headquarters in Squadron City. The teams battled and there were several casualties on both sides. A dying Nighthawk was able to convince the others their idea was wrong, Power Princess surrendered for the Squadron and the Utopia Project was dismantled. Tom Thumb died of cancer soon afterward.; Due to the Scarlet Centurion and Grandmaster's manipulations, the Squadron has also journeyed to Earth-616. On quite a few occasions they have been forced to battle the Avengers, although they have since become allies.; The group was stranded on Earth-616 after battling the Nth Man. When they returned to Earth-S, they found that the Utopia Project was still ongoing and the world under the tyrannical one-world government of the Global Directorate. The Squadron then were devoted in their new mission to ending the Global Directorate and reverting the damages that had resulted since their absence.; ===Origins===; The Squadron Supreme is an organization of superhuman champions who have banded together to safeguard their world, which is an extradimensional alternate Earth that has been sometimes referred to as either "Other-Earth", "Earth-S" (short for "Earth-Squadron"), or Earth-712.; The Squadron was originally formed over 10 years ago. Although the Squadron was at one point the largest and longest-lived team of champions that Earth-712 has ever known, it was not the first one. During this Earth's World War II, the U.S. War Department organized the Golden Agency, a small battalion of superhuman beings who helped the Allies. Power Princess was the only person to serve in both the Agency and the Squadron, although the Blue Eagle's father, the American Eagle, was also a Golden Agent.; Like the Golden Agency before it, the Squadron Supreme has always had close ties with the U.S. government. Upon its founding, the Squadron sought government sanctions permitting its various peacekeeping operations. The government granted the Squadron various powers and made the superhuman team a special branch of the U.S. military, answerable only to the President and the National Security Council.; At the height of its tenure, any new costumed crime-fighters with established reputations were invited to join, and no one refused the honor. Thus the membership increased from its original founding members, although there have never been more than 15 active members at one time.; The Squadron originally met in the mansion of industrialist Kyle Richmond (secretly the Squadron member Nighthawk) located in Cosmopolis, the Other-Earth counterpart to New York City. Several years later, after Richmond took a leave of absence from the team to enter politics, the Squadron moved out of his mansion into a manned fixed orbit satellite called Rocket Central, designed by Squadron recruit Tom Thumb. The surveillance devices aboard the satellite enabled the Squadron to better keep watch over the planet.; At one point, the cosmic gamesman known as the Grandmaster had happened upon the Squadron Supreme's dimension and set up a tournament between himself and the time traveler called the Scarlet Centurion. The Grandmaster used the Squadron as his pawns; the Centurion organized the Institute of Evil, a team of the Squadron's personal foes. Winning the contest, the Grandmaster resolved to create his own Squadron the next time he needed superhuman pawns, which led to his creation of a similar but evil team named the Squadron Sinister from the mainstream Earth.; Later, four members of the super-hero team the Avengers (Quicksilver, the Scarlet Witch, the Vision, and Hawkeye (as Goliath)) accidentally materialized on Other-Earth while in transit from Polemachus, the dimensional world of Arkon, to their own Earth. The Avengers mistook Other-Earth for their own Earth, Richmond's mansion for Avengers Mansion, and the Squadron Supreme for the Squadron Sinister, whom they had previously battled on their own Earth. After a brief misunderstanding, the Avengers were able to return to their native dimension.; ===The Serpent Crown Affair===; Sometime later, the government of the United States of Other-Earth came under its first covert assault. A huge industrial complex called the Serpent Cartel was actually the base of operations for the various human agents of the extradimensional Elder God Set the Old Serpent, who manifested itself in the Serpent Crown. The Serpent Cartel invited then-President of the United States Nelson W. Rockefeller to address its executives at a business luncheon, and used the opportunity to place the President under the domination of the Serpent Crown. Having made inroads into high government, the Crown was able to put more and more high-ranking politicians and officers under its domination.; At the same time on the Avengers' Earth, Hugh Jones, then-president of the vast Roxxon Oil company, was also made a slave to the Crown and was attempting to mastermind a similar secret government takeover. The Avengers intervened and Jones asked Rockefeller for superhuman assistance in handling the problem. Rockefeller dispatched several of the Squadron Supreme, who were unaware of the Commander-in-Chief's new loyalties. Engaging in battle with the Squadron, the Avengers were teleported to Other-Earth, where they managed to seize Other-Earth's counterpart to the Serpent Crown and to convince the Squadron they were being misled by their President. The Squadron forced Rockefeller to resign and saw to the dismantling of the Serpent Cartel. At the next Presidential election, Nighthawk's alter-ego, Kyle Richmond, was elected by a landslide vote.; ===Mind Control===; Shortly after being elected to his second term, Richmond was mentally enthralled by the Over-Mind, a collective alien intelligence who was working in an alliance with Null the Living Darkness, a demonic entity. Unlike Set, both the Over-Mind and Null wanted complete control over the Squadron's minds as well as the President's. Only Hyperion managed to escape the Over-Mind's mental onslaught, and he fled to the Avengers' Earth in order to get help, damaging the Squadron's satellite headquarters on the way.; With the Squadron's help, the Over-Mind took over all of the minds of every major military, political, and industrial leader in the world. The Over-Mind then began to force the Squadron to build a vast nuclear arsenal on the Moon with which he hoped to wage interstellar war on other worlds in the Squadron's dimension. Fortunately, Hyperion returned with a large battalion of superhuman champions from the Avengers' Earth, the Defenders, who managed to both free the Squadron and, with them, vanquish both the Over-Mind and Null.; With their satellite damaged and accidentally pushed out of orbit by Hyperion, it eventually crashed into the ocean. The Squadron set up a temporary headquarters in a cave in the state of Moreland (equivalent to the state of Vermont), but began construction on Squadron City, a sprawling headquarters and living community with an elaborate air base that was located in the Great American Desert (equivalent to the state of Nevada).; ===The Utopia Program===; Other-Earth had been left in ruins in the aftermath of this alien takeover, and the Squadron was forced to cope with a world in total political, economic, and technological collapse. Although he was blameless for what had happened, Kyle Richmond resigned the Presidency as had Rockefeller before him, and returned to his identity of Nighthawk full-time. The Squadron explained to the people how they were also blameless in what had happened and declared a state of martial law, ultimately deciding to implement the Utopia Program, a plan for social reform designed to turn the United States from the shambles that it was in to an ideal free state, the like of which Earth had never seen. The Utopia Program was designed to address all social problems that had been afflicting societies since civilization began, including poverty, economic instability, war, crime, pollution, and even disease and death.; Squadron City was soon expanded to employ almost 1,000 technicians, maintenance people, medical specialists, and support personnel. The City was climate-controlled and was camouflaged to look like part of the desert due to an elaborate illusion-casting spell that was created by Squadron member Arcanna.; The Squadron seized complete authority over the federal government, as well as control over the military and the police. They then disarmed both the militia and the police, giving them "pacifier pistols," non-lethal devices capable of subduing perpetrators by overwhelming their pleasure centers. In exchange for their guns, the citizens were given "personal protection belts," devices generating small force fields providing protection against all penetration wounds. Both of these devices were the work of Squadron member Tom Thumb, the former in conjunction with the intelligent talking gorilla Ape-X. The Squadron also embarked upon their "decriminalization program," using Tom Thumb's Behaviour Modification Device, a device that programmed the human brain to be incapable of whatever actions were specified. Behavior-modified convicts had their criminal records eradicated and were provided jobs in the various nationwide restoration projects.; Tackling the problem of death, Tom Thumb invented the Hibernaculum, a suspended animation capsule that was able to prolong life indefinitely through cryogenics. Citizens would be provided free "life-watches," devices to monitor their vital signs. If a remote sensor detected a life-failure, a team of hibermedics, which were planned to become as common as firemen, would rush to that person's side and put him or her into an emergency Hibernaculum. Eventually the death-arrested persons would be transferred to huge Hibernacles, cathedral-like buildings where Hibernacula would be stored. When medical science had finally cured the ailment to which the Hibernaculum user had succumbed, he or she would be revived. The first person to use the Hibernaculum was Tom Thumb himself, who died of cancer shortly after creating the tube. Both the Behavior Modification Device and the Hibernaculum were met with active resistance from certain segments of the population.; Kyle Richmond, as Nighthawk, opposed the Squadron's Utopia Program and had resigned from the group when they elected to implement it. He spent the year that the Squadron put the Utopia Program into effect trying to organize a counter-force powerful enough to oppose the Squadron. He managed to recruit three of his one-time personal foes, Pinball, Remnant, and the Mink; one expelled Squadron member, the Golden Archer (who had been banished from the Squadron for misusing the Behavior Modification Device); three of the Squadron's new recruits culled from the ranks of the Institute of Evil, the Lamprey, the Shape, and Foxfire; and five superhumans who had hitherto not gone public with their abilities: Inertia, Thermite, Haywire, Redstone, and Moonglow. This aggregation of superhumans was informally named the Redeemers.; Nighthawk was also aided by Professor Imam, this Earth's Wizard Supreme and a former member of the Golden Agency, and Master Menace, Hyperion's deadliest and greatest foe as well as one of the few people on Other-Earth who could match Tom Thumb's genius. Imam gave Nighthawk the means to locate his Redeemers, while Menace provided him with an Anti-Behavior Modification Device which was able to counteract Tom Thumb's programming. On the day of the Squadron's announcement that they had met all of the goals that they had defined one year ago, Nighthawk's Redeemers entered Squadron City and declared their opposition to all of the things that the Squadron had done. Violence erupted as a result of this, and the vastly outnumbered Squadron managed to hold their own for a time. Casualties in the war were numerous with Thermite, the Blue Eagle, Pinball, the Golden Archer, the Lamprey, Foxfire, and Nighthawk all dying in the battle. The war came to an abrupt end when Foxfire, hoping to prove her loyalty to Doctor Spectrum, killed Nighthawk. Hyperion then formally surrendered.; Before he died, Nighthawk had convinced Hyperion that the main problems with the Squadron's Utopia Program was that they had used basically ignoble human rights-violating means to achieve noble ends, and that the only reason why these ignoble means were not abused more than they were was that the Squadron was basically a benevolent group of individuals. The system they had devised, argued Nighthawk, required persons as noble and benevolent as they were to oversee it. Since the Squadron was not immortal, they could not ensure that future generations would not be tyrannized by the Utopian technologies they had created. The Squadron was convinced to begin dismantling the Utopia Program and they also agreed to disband.; ===Death of a Universe===; One week later, however, the Squadron's dimension was inadvertently infiltrated by the powerful Nth Man. The Nth Man was a product of the energy research facility Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. on the mainstream Earth, but was shunted to another dimension. Absorbing this dimension, the Nth Man proceeded to travel to one dimension after another, nullifying each of them as he passed through them. Unaware of the true nature of their threat, various members of the Squadron Supreme (Hyperion, Power Princess, the Whizzer, Doctor Spectrum, Arcanna (disguised as Moonglow), the Shape, Lady Lark, Inertia, and Haywire) assembled once more to discover a solution for the blight on their reality. They also sought help from Professor Imam and their enemies, Master Menace and the Scarlet Centurion. Despite the best efforts and sacrifices of the assembled champions, the group failed to turn back the force of the Nth Man. Ultimately, however, the Nth Man made contact with the infant son of the Squadron member Arcanna, who had the potential to be the dimension's most powerful magic user. The two of them agreed to switch places; the Nth Man became Wizard Supreme and Arcanna's son, Benjamin, began contracting the extradimensional force, regurgitating all that the Nth Man had previously absorbed and restoring reality back to normal.; ===Adventures on Earth-616===; Unfortunately, when the Squadron tried to return to their Earth, they found themselves shunted to the mainstream Earth instead due to the machinations of Master Menace, who wanted the team to disappear even if the world did survive. By this time, their number included only Hyperion, Power Princess, the Whizzer, Doctor Spectrum, Moonglow, the Shape, Lady Lark (later known as the Skylark), and Haywire. They encountered the super-hero Quasar, who soon helped them settle at the Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. facility as they hoped to catch up with Benjamin when he completed undoing the Nth Man's damage and returned to its point of origin. They also hoped the Project could return them home, but that proved to be impossible. During their time on the mainstream Earth, the Squadron aided both Quasar and the Avengers on different occasions.; At one point, the Squadron was targeted by the villain Imus Champion, who hoped to use them as pawns against the Avengers. He first used the mind-controlling villain the Corruptor to influence the Squadron in believing the Avengers (who had recently re-formed their team after a long hiatus) to be impostors. The two teams fought each other, and the Squadron abandoned them in order to begin a media campaign against the Avengers. Soon, however, the Avengers infiltrated Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. and uncovered the Corruptor's influence. Champion later revealed his part in the ploy, bringing together both teams so that he could force them into competing with him and that he might prove to be their superior. The heroes made Champion believe that he had won, but ultimately trumped his plan. After remanding Champion into custody, the Avengers discovered in Champion's arsenal a variation of the Nth Projector which had created the Nth Man. They were able to use this device to create a dimensional portal so that the Squadron could return home, although one of their number, Haywire, elected to stay behind.; ===The New World Order===; The Squadron Supreme returned to find that their world was completely different than from what they had left it. The people of Earth-S had grown tired of the constant natural, political, and social upheavals that had plagued the world in recent years, largely because of the presence of the Squadron. Instead, they elected leaders into a Global Directorate with far-reaching and invasive political powers. The Directorate had used the devices of the Utopia Program for themselves, creating a totalitarian government. The Shape and the Skylark were injured in the re-entry into the world, but due to its new policies Doctor Spectrum was forced to abandon them at the hospital. Arcanna returned home but was ordered to stay there by Lightner, who now called himself Mysterium. Mysterium also implored the Squadron to repair what had been begun by their Utopia Program efforts, charging them with contacting other members of their team. The Squadron recruited the Amphibian, the Skrullian Skymaster (now known as Skymax), and Neal Richmond, the son of Kyle Richmond, who had since taken up his father's identity of Nighthawk and had organized an underground resistance militia called the Nighthawks. The new Squadron believed Master Menace to be behind the tyrannical regime, but they found out that he was actually only a pawn of the Global Directorate. The Squadron rescued Menace and returned him to their new headquarters on Utopia Isle, which was left abandoned by Power Princess' people. The team dedicated themselves to their new role, that of freedom fighters and champions of the oppressed.; Earth-712 was later visited by Proteus in the Hulk 2099's body and convinced the Squadron that the Exiles, who Hyperion had interacted with previously, had become corrupt and were hunting him down for not complying with their plans. The Squadron overpowered the Exiles, and put them on trial on Utopia Isle. Fortunately Heather Hudson was able to use the technology in the Crystal Palace to show the Squadron both that the Exiles were innocent and how the Directorate had rigged the votes in their favor. The Exiles helped the Squadron confront the Directorate and set things right in their world. Hyperion declared that there would be another democratic vote for who would be in power and, this time, it would be fair.; Power Princess temporarily left the Squadron to watch the Exiles and help them battle Proteus. After Proteus was defeated, Power Princess saw that her mission was finished and returned to Earth-712.; ===The End===; Most of the members of the Squadron Supreme died due to the force of an ongoing cataclysm of unknown origin which threatened to destroy Earth-712 after the restoration of the Multiverse, leaving Hyperion and Power Princess to be its only survivors until Power Princess was forced to leave her world by Hyperion.

+Trivia: The original Squadron Sinister was created as a pastiche of DC Comics' Justice League of America characters Superman (Hyperion), Batman (Nighthawk), Green Lantern (Doctor Spectrum), and the Flash (the Whizzer).; DC Comics created a pastiche of the Avengers called the Assemblers, first appearing in Justice League of America #87 (February, 1971). The team consisted of the Blue Jay (the Wasp / Ant-Man), Wandjina (Thor), the Silver Sorceress (the Scarlet Witch), and Jack B. Quick (Quicksilver).
+History:
+The Squadron Sinister was a team of super-villains created by the Grandmaster after he had encountered the Squadron Supreme during one of his interdimensional travels. He returned to his own universe and transformed three men (Kinji Obatu / Doctor Spectrum, Kyle Richmond / Nighthawk, and Jim Sanders / the Whizzer) into counterparts to the Squadron members. He also created a counterpart to the Squadron's Hyperion out of non-living extradimensional matter, investing it with consciousness and artificial memories. These four men became the criminal team known as the Squadron Sinister.; They were first used in one of the Grandmaster's games against Kang the Conqueror, where they were pitted against the Avengers, but were unable to defeat them. After the game, the Grandmaster abandoned the defeated Squadron, including Hyperion, who was left floating helplessly through outer space in a small glass globe as a result of a battle with Thor. The other three members went their separate ways, with Nighthawk first retiring from his life of crime and then joining the Defenders and Doctor Spectrum later both being defeated in a battle with Iron Man and having his Power Prism destroyed.; The Squadron Sinister was later re-formed by Nebulon the Celestial Man. Nebulon was searching the galaxy for other planets that possessed resources that would help keep his own planet alive. During this expedition, Nebulon came across Hyperion who was still floating helplessly through outer space in a small glass globe. Hyperion wanted revenge on humanity and so offered to sell Earth to Nebulon. Nebulon agreed on the condition that Earth be fully submerged underwater. Hyperion wanted the assistance of his former colleagues in the Squadron Sinister, so Nebulon restored Doctor Spectrum's Power Prism and located the Whizzer and Nighthawk. Nighthawk was horrified at the plan that the Squadron presented to him, which involved melting the polar ice caps with a giant laser cannon before selling the world to Nebulon, and left the group. He tried to warn his old foes, the Avengers, but was unable to due to a spell placed upon him by Nebulon. Nighthawk, however, overheard the Avengers discussing the Defenders and went to warn that group instead.; The Defenders, with Nighthawk's help, defeated both the Squadron Sinister and Nebulon. Nebulon expended so much energy during the battle that he was forced to abandon the disguise he was using and revert back to his true form, which disgusted the members of the Squadron. Nighthawk turned the laser cannon that was being used to melt the polar ice caps on Nebulon, forcing so much energy upon him that he imploded, seemingly taking the other three members of the Squadron with him. The laser cannon then exploded as a result of the tremendous energy expenditure and Nighthawk nearly died. His life was saved by the quick actions of Doctor Strange, who used a spell to give a fraction of each of the Defenders' life essences to Nighthawk, thereby restoring him to health. Nighthawk was then offered membership in the Defenders.; Months later, the other members of the Squadron Sinister resurfaced. It was revealed that, rather than being destroyed, Nebulon and the Squadron were transported into an extra-dimensional world called Zaar. There, they met a race of philosophers known as the Ludberdites. Nebulon eventually returned the Squadron to Earth with a weapon that would allow them to get revenge on the Defenders, while he decided to stay behind to learn the secrets of the Ludberdites' philosophy. Before the Squadron could even begin to manage to mount an attack on their old foes, however, the Defenders stormed into their secret hideout, somehow learning of their return to Earth. The Defenders mistakenly believed the Squadron to be the ones behind the planting of a car bomb in the car of their old teammate, Nighthawk. The Squadron initially defeated and captured the Defenders but, with the aid of Yellowjacket, they soon escaped and subdued the Squadron again.; The Grandmaster had the Squadron Sinister briefly re-form to go up against the Thunderbolts and Baron Zemo, gathering the members and convincing them to join one by one. Once they were fully re-formed, they went up against Zemo and his team and were defeated.

It knew that while the vast majority of its population would die in the explosion, the remaining Kree's DNA would be altered thus allowing for its evolutionary growth. To help in its goals it recruited various Kree from the empire and formed the team that would assume the name Starforce. The Avengers met with Lilandra in an attempt to end the war. After being assaulted by Starforce, she agreed to pursue a truce and recall the Negabomb.; ===Imperial Guard===; When the war ended, the Shi'ar annexed Kree territory and placed Deathbird as its regent, with Starforce as her Imperial Guard.

+Created by: J. Michael Straczynski; Gary Frank
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-31916
+Base of operations: Mobile
+History:
+The Squadron Supreme was formed when the U.S. government recruited both current (eg. Hyperion) and new (eg. Amphibian) superhumans to carry out missions on its behalf. While some of the team's missions are international in scope and have a "positive public relations" aspect, others are covert and apparently involve military strikes and assassinations.; The team's first mission involved traveling to Africa, to neutralize an African general named John M'Butu, whose voice can compel obedience. The general, however, is actually executed by a group of African superhumans who told the Squadron to leave, stating that "Africa is now off-limits". The team then traveled to the Ilam Province in Iran, where they have been ordered to stop a group of insurgents. Hyperion quelled the doubts of comrade The Blur about their agenda by showing him a mass grave filled with the bodies of innocents. After this mission the Blur asked the vigilante Nighthawk to join the Squadron, but Nighthawk refused.; Shortly after this, Hyperion engaged in a public battle with a super-powered serial killer named Michael Redstone, who was previously captured by Hyperion, the Blur and Nighthawk. Unfortunately, the battle resulted in the deaths of several innocent bystanders, and Redstone then attempted to blackmail Hyperion with a nuclear device, although teammate Zarda apparently deals with the bomb. The Blur and Nighthawk then joined Hyperion for the final confrontation with Redstone.; Five years after the Squadron Supreme fought Michael Redstone and the Ultimate Power incident, the Squadron Supreme had disappeared. Since the team's disappearance, Squadron Supreme was replaced by a new version handpicked by Nick Fury.; Eventually the original Squadron Supreme came into conflict with their new successors. However, the heroes then united to stop a group of superhuman terrorists from the Middle East but then, via a government device, apparently all lose their abilities.; ===All-New Marvel NOW!===; The Squadron Supreme confronted Earth-616's Cabal during an incursion and perished in combat right before their Earth was destroyed by the Cabal, so theirs could live.

+History:
+The Squadron Supreme were a group of heroes dedicated to defending the Earth. Under the leadership of Hyperion, the Squadron decided to reveal their secret identities to the public and attempt to use their powers to solve societal problems, such as hunger, crime, war and class inequality.; This, however, led to conflict within the Squadron. Nighthawk believed that the Squadron would never be able to solve the core causes of societal issues, and secretly created the Redeemers to oppose the Squadron. This led to a deadly confrontation which saw the Squadron emerge triumphant, but also cost Nighthawk his life. Following the conflict, Hyperion realized that in trying to solve society's problems, the Squadron Supreme had only become one of them.; This realization came too late, as the world's governments had banded together and created a bomb designed to eliminate the Squadron once and for all. The subsequent attack left Hyperion as the only survivor.; All the deceased members ended up in the Realm of the Dead and a number of their members have since been seen in Mar-Vell's Paradise, aiding the gathered super-beings in fighting off an invasion by the Kree.

Feeling that, as Ultras, they were a separate species, above normal humans, they began kidnapping former, now-overweight, military veterans and releasing them on the grounds of their compound. Giving the humans a headstart, they would then hunt them, kill them, and have their chef prepare them as a cannibalistic feast.; When Clare Brody's fiancee went missing, she hired private investigator Alec Swan to find him. Asking questions, Swan slowly began piecing the puzzle together, at which point he was attacked by the reptilian Sportsman Marley, a fight Swan won by tucking an explosive into Marley's spandex shirt.; Continuing his investigation, he was then attacked and captured by members Davenport and Mosely. Taken back to the Sportsmen's headquarters, he was shown a captive Clare Brody. Informing him that they would then hunt Swan for sport, and would feast on Brody if he attempted to escape, the Sportsmen released Swan onto their grounds and began hunting him.; Armed with only what he could find on the grounds, Swan began picking the Sportsmen off, killing Andre, Mace, and Lonny in various ways before making his way to the Sportsmen's cars. Realizing the discovery was too easy (especially after finding the keys in one of the cars), Swan decided to try to escape in one anyway. After the car was started, it exploded, seemingly killing Swan.; Heading back to their estate, the Sportsmen prepared to feast on Brody, only for a weakened, but still alive Swan to show up and begin fighting back. At that same moment, the Moon-based Entity, acting through Amber Hunt, began affecting humans across the US. Several of the Sportsmen fled the area, driven mad by the call, and Davenport, driven crazy by the light, was defeated and killed by Swan, who then freed Brody.; Mosely later hired the killed Rafferty as part of a plot.

+History:
+Since the Squadron Supreme from Earth-712 was temporarily stranded on Earth-616, they lived as guests at Project Pegasus. The scientists there studied and learned from the superhero team. Among their peers, Dr. Mortimer Dauoi had his own ideas that were influenced by a terminal disease. Dauoi convinced the scientists that knowing the Squadron's DNA codes might lead to great leaps in medical science. So Dr. Spectrum used his Power Prism to create hard-light constructs of his teammates' individual helices. When the Squadron returned to their world, Dr. Dauoi grafted their DNA to medical cadavers and - needing a powerful source in order to reanimate his 'test subjects' - used Zeta Rays that were accessible from Pegasus' orbital particle collector. Even though continued exposure to cosmic rays kills normal brain cells, Dauoi correctly postulated that the negative-charged Zeta energy would have the reverse effect on dead brain matter. However, something went severely wrong: the reanimated cloned Squadron, imbued with the powers of the original Squadron, became voracious zombies. This was probably due to the refracting nature of Dr. Spectrum's Prism, in which the DNA constructs were unstable.; The zombie Squadron attacked and devoured Pegasus' personnel but were quickly contained inside the facility under a system lockdown by the surviving scientists. Desperate for sustenance, the Squadron tried to find a way to escape. The zombie Nuke had already gotten out during the carnage through a radioactive waste chute. The Squadron managed to obtain the facility's blueprints and learned that only the zombie Hyperion could escape by going through the Earth's core via a magma pool. The Squadron also came into conflict with a special ops team that came to investigate Project Pegasus.

+History:
+The so called "Squad of Mystery" were a group of Nazis Fifth Columnists who were active in the United States during World War II. They were stationed in Washington, D.C. using the Mariposa Cafe as a front; they were led by a Nazi operative named Herr Grotz. Grotz would hang out at the Traveler's Bureau and entice an entire squad (Company B) on furlough to go to the cafe. They were then drugged so a number of Nazi operatives took their place and return to Camp Lehigh. Their plan was to go on murder sprees in order to lower American morale and shake the faith of the people in their Armed Forces.; Their undoing, however, would begin with a routine test of the squad's various skills. When the squad they were posing as did a lot better than the previous round of tests, it aroused the suspicions of Private Steve Rogers (secretly Captain America). When awarded for their top marks, the squad leader nearly blew their cover when he almost gave a "Sieg Heil" in salute. Not only Steve saw this but a lieutenant on duty as well. That night, as the Nazi subversives were celebrating their ability to fool the American soldiers, they were be confronted by the lieutenant. Hiding in the shadows outside their tent, Herr Grotz shot the lieutenant dead. Arriving on the scene of the murder were Captain America and his partner Bucky, but Grotz escaped.; Still suspicious but needing proof, Captain America convinced the base's commander to reassign his civilian identity to the squad. From the start, the Nazi spies attempted to eliminate Steve Rogers in order to protect their cover. Attempting to crush Steve under a tree led to another clash with Captain America and Bucky, confirming Cap's suspicions.; Seeking actual proof, Cap and Bucky then traced back the soldiers' footprints to the Mariposa Cafe. Confronting the manager, they recognized him as the shooter from the night before, despite the fact he was wearing a wig. Before they could subdue Herr Grotz, the Nazi trapped Cap and Bucky in his dungeon. There, they found the replaced soldiers and learned all about the Nazi's plots. When Grotz's men came down to kill Cap and Bucky, the two heroes easily defeated their would-be killers and freed the captured soldiers. With the soldiers, they returned to Camp Lehigh and subdued the impostors, turning them over to the military authorities.

+History:
+===Origins===; The Squadron Supreme consisted of Hyperion, Power Princess, Nighthawk, Speed Demon, Doctor Spectrum, and Nuke. Being partially responsible for the chaos enveloping their world, they chose to take control of the planet to solve its problems. As such they took active responsibility for more than just fighting crime and supervillains and took on poverty and hunger, the environment and public health.; ===Hyperion===; It was believed all but Hyperion were killed when the planet was destroyed in a civil war.; ===Nighthawk===; Nighthawk appears on Earth and uses S.H.I.E.L.D.'s contingency plan on the Avengers. When Falcon is his captive, Nighthawk mentioned that he is the "architect" of the Squadron Supreme while Hyperion was the "hammer" of the group.

They both leave to get their team back together.; ===Dark Avengers===; Using the Reality Gem, Dr. Spectrum alters reality so the Avengers are all criminals with darker costumes and the Avengers Tower is headquarters of the Squadron. Due to a spike in energy, Iron Man sees the real reality and manages to convince his team to come together. However Spectrum has created a machine that will give him complete control over reality, and plans to alter history so the Avengers were never born. Captain is able to get a hold of the stone and revert reality back to normal. The Squadron leaves with Nighthawk activating charges placed at the base of Avengers tower.

Zarda amplified the zoo animals in order to get close to the Avengers claiming that she was trying to switch sides. When Thor found Zarda on her island, she put him through her training process. Unbeknownst to Thor, their training was causing tidal waves that threatened Manhattan. When Hulk arrived upon hitching a ride on Mjolnir, he tried to help Thor only to be amplified into a monstrous form by Zarda. Thor managed to help Hulk regain control as he regresses back to normal. Upon the arrival of the other Avengers, Zarda escaped. Upon meeting up with Nighthawk, Zarda told him that she was wrong about swaying a member of the Avengers to their side.; ===Avengers' Second To Last Stand===; The Avengers were challenged by the fully formed and incredibly powerful Squadron Supreme for a battle that would end with only one team as the victor.; ===Avengers Underground===; The Squadron Supreme had taken over Earth where they managed to thwart Atlanteans on Attuma's side, shackle Red Hulk, trap Doctor Strange in a special trap, and keep Spider-Man occupied with one of their robots.

+History:
+The Squadron Supreme hails from another universe than the Super Hero Squad but performed a similar function to them only they fought the Grandmaster rather than Thanos. Despite this, they still met the Titan as he and the Grandmaster had a wager formed over the Mind Stone for the Infinity Gauntlet. Thanos selected Iron Man, Hulk, and Scarlet Witch while the Grandmaster selected Hyperion, Nighthawk, and Power Princess. Iron Man and Nighthawk clashed in New York City, Hulk fought Hyperion in Egypt, and Scarlet Witch dueled Power Princess in Peru. Using morals, raw power, and wits respectively the Super Hero Squad managed to best the Squadron Supreme only to realize they were pawns in Thanos' plan for the Mind Stone. Both teams teamed up to beat up the cosmic entities only for Thanos to send them back to their worlds.

+History:
+The Squadron Supreme was formed by members of various superhuman groups from different realities, all of whom had lost their own world because of the incursions. They all found themselves on Earth-616, and decided to band together to protect their new home at any cost.; ===All-New, All-Different Marvel===; Their first mission was to punish Namor for destroying Doctor Spectrum's world and cooperating with the Cabal, as well as numerous attacks upon the surface world. They rationalised this by claiming that Namor and Atlantis were a threat to the rest of the world. They eventually confront him, along with Attuma and the rest of Atlantis. Zarda killed Attuma, while Hyperion yanked the city of Atlantis from the ocean, lifted it high into the air, and hurled it down, utterly destroying it. Hyperion proceeded to decapitate Namor with his Atomic Vision. These events led to the people of Earth having mixed reactions about them, and forcing the Avengers Unity Division to attempt to apprehend the Squadron Supreme; however, they were unexpectedly rescued by Thundra and teleported to Weirdworld. When on Weirdworld, the Squadron Supreme were separated where they end up encountering a resurrected Doctor Druid.; Doctor Druid had taken over Weirdworld through the use of a crystal that allowed him to control the minds of everyone on Weirdworld. The Squadron, with the help of Thundra, managed to destroy the mission and return home. During the mission, Power-Princess revealed her true identity to be Warrior Woman, formerly a member of the Squadron Sinister. Warrior Woman had allied with Doctor Druid, and when he was defeated, fled, leaving the group. They were instead joined by Thundra, who decided to accompany them back to Earth, not sure if she needed to help the Squadron protect the world or protect the world from the Squadron.

+Reality: Earth-21195
+Base of operations: Formerly:; New Troy, Cosmopolis, Earth, Earth-21195; Utopolis, Battleworld
+Weapons: Doctor Spectrum's Power Prism, Warrior Woman's Swords
+History:
+The Squardron Sinister ran the domain of Utopolis with King Hyperion acting as its baron. The Squadron made weakness a crime that was punishable by death. The Squadron also aggressively annexed other territories into their own, often killing their champions, but letting one of them live to serve as their puppet ruler. The Squadron justified their expansionism by stating that their neighbors were also aggressive.; Thanks to the strength of the Squadron, they were able to conquer six provinces over a period of just two months. There was dissension among the team's ranks, however: Nighthawk hated being ruled by Hyperion and planned to overthrow him; Warrior Woman was secretly helping the people of Nutopia, one of Utopolis' neighboring territories, against Utopolis as well.; The Frightful Four from Wittland were competitors for the control of the province of Europix, and made the first move when they attacked Europix and easily overwhelmed its defenders; however, the Squadron Sinister came in and defeated the Frightful Four, killing two of its members. Europix was then forced to surrender itself to Utopolis' rule.; Iron Thor had been dispatched to investigate Utopolis' expansionist policies, but was killed by a Power Prism which Nighthawk had taken from the corpse of Doctor Spectrum during the annexation of Supremia Province. Later, Sandman stole a weapon powered by Argonite, Hyperion's sole weakness, taken from the Shadow Province on behalf of Nighthawk as well. Nighthawk then proceeded to carry out his plan to defeat Hyperion by pitting the other members of the Squadron Sinister against one another, so they couldn't interfere in his plan, because they were too busy trying to prove they did not kill the Thor nor betray Hyperion.; Nighthawk forced Trapster of the Frightful Four to falsely accuse Whizzer of stealing the Argonite weapon. He then tricked Doctor Spectrum into thinking Warrior Woman had killed the Thor, convincing Kinji to hand over his Power Prism, so that he couldn't be tracked, and then to subsequently flee the domain. Warrior Woman then fulfilled her end of a previous deal with Nighthawk, to keep him from outing her for working with the Nutopians, and accused Spectrum of the crime. After the Nutopians were defeated, Nighthawk convinced Warrior Woman to leave Utopolis as well, so that her secret alliance with them would not be discovered. This left Nighthawk alone with Hyperion.; Nighthawk then used the Argonite weapon to weaken Hyperion and fought him using Doctor Spectrum's Power Prism. Nighthawk ultimately killed King Hyperion by snapping his neck. While Nighthawk's plan was successful, he cost him dearly. He was apprehended in by the Thors and taken to Doomstadt to answer for his crimes. During his trial, Warrior Woman testified against him, and although he wasn't definitively found guilty of killing Iron Thor, he was; however, found guilty for sowing discord within his domain, and thus sentenced to be exiled to life beyond The Shield.; When Reed Richards restored the Multiverse, the entire Squadron Sinister were resurrected in Earth-21195; however, their Earth soon faced a new cataclysm of unknown origin and thus they built a portal in Cosmopolis, New Troy to escape their dying world. Unfortunately the portal was designed to only transport one person at a time, and took too long to build, thus the Squadron turned on each other, fighting to determine whom would be the first to escape. The others underestimated Zarda because she was a woman, and she used that to her advantage to slay her teammates and pass through the portal into the Exo-Space between realities.

However, after the untimely death of Chompsky, Allene became disenchanted with humanity. Without Doreen's moral compass, Allene chose to use her powers to rid the Earth of humans (and humanoids) and make squirrels the dominate species. Allene used the High Evolutionary's duplication chamber to clone an army of approximately 62,000 squirrels.; Together, Allene and her duplicate squirrel army destroyed the country's electrical grid and then systematically defeated nearly all of the heroes and villains of the Marvel Universe. Although their plans nearly succeeded, they were thwarted by Squirrel Girl, Tippy-Toe, and their friends.; As part of a compromise, Allene and her duplicate squirrel army were sent to the Negative Zone to explore, battle villains, and found a squirrel utopia.

+History:
+The Squadron Supreme of America was a team of superhero constructs created by the demon Mephisto and programmed by the Power Elite in cooperation with a recently-revived Agent Coulson to act as the United States of America's first line of defense, a role that once belonged to the Avengers. But secretly to further Coulson and Mephisto's schemes.; The origins of each team member prior to their debut to the world remains unknown. But what is is each team member was seen being manipulated and conditioned by Coulson and the Power Elite in different ways.; The Squadron Supreme of America first appeared when Phil Coulson, acting as their liaison, promoted them to Thunderbolt Ross as the United States of America's sanctioned superhero team. The Squadron then confronted different radical groups like King Namor's Defenders of the Deep.; After the death of General Ross, Col. Joseph Ledger aka Doctor Spectrum was now in charge, and was shown the conditioning and manipulation Coulson and the Power Elite were putting his teammates through. Seeing what they were doing as torturing fellow citizens Ledger become angry and wanted it all shut down. But Coulson uttered a trigger phrase putting him under control, revealing that what he was doing to the team already being done to Ledger.; When Malekith the Accursed attacked Earth during the War of the Realms, the Squadron Supreme of America were summoned when Frost Giants from the realm of Jotunheim invaded Washington, D.C.. The Squadron routed the invaders out of the American frontier in Lake Erie, and were subsequently sent to Ohio.; The Squadron Supreme of America were summoned to confront Black Panther when he infiltrated Phil Coulson's office at the Pentagon. Before they could apprehend him, Black Panther had Broo teleport him away. As he disappeared, Black Panther stated to the Squadron Supreme that the Avengers weren't their enemies, but would become such if their hand was forced.; Coulson later sold his soul to Mephisto to gain the power of the Pandemonium Cube, a demonic artifact with the power to warp reality itself. Coulson used the Cube to change Earth-616 to Earth-21798, a reality where the Avengers never existed and the Squadron Supreme were the world's premiere superhero team. Reality was eventually returned to normal by Blade the Vampire Hunter and his team of Avengers. For his failure, Mephisto trapped Coulson in the Pandemonium Cube. With Coulson's disappearance, the Squadron Supreme fell apart. Blur, Doctor Spectrum, and Power Princess were taken into government custody, Hyperion went to Russia, and Nighthawk went off on his own to remake reality back to Earth-21798.; Later, remnants of the team were seen in Western Russia's Ural Mountains, where Hyperion had gone to hide and get help from Red Widow. Once they arrived, Doctor Spectrum attempted to arrest Red Widow, under the belief she was using Red Room brainwashing techniques on Hyperion. But Power Princess killed Doctor Spectrum and took his Power Prism for herself. Power Princess, feeling Red Widow would understand being used by Governments and Devils, stopped Blur from killing Red Widow. Red Widow then told them that she was using these techniques to help Hyperion undo what was done to him. To Hyperion's horror Power Princess liked this and allowed Red Widow to continue, seemingly for Power Princess' own ends.

+The Squadron Supreme of America were the premiere superhero team of Earth. They didn't just operate in the United States but also around the world like when they ensured Latveria had free elections.; However, their international reach could also turned out to be malevolent as they and an army once invaded the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia for their resources. This led to a fight with Canada's Alpha Flight. While most of Alpha Flight's members were killed, Alpha Flight's leader Weapon X managed to kill Hyperion. Upset over this lost, the Squadron hunted for Alpha Flight for two years until Alpha Flight member Sasquatch agreed to sell out Weapon X in exchange for the Squadron freeing the prisoners they took and leaving Canada.; Following a civil war between Hyperion and Nighthawk that split the ranks of the Squadron Supreme, Nighthawk and Blur formed the Secret Squadron in Europe.; When the Masters of Doom attacked different locations across Washington, D.C., the Squadron split up to battle them with the exception of Doctor Spectrum who was forced to fight against Thanos in outer space.; The Squadron eventually reunited in time to deal with a new threat: a new team that popped up called the Avengers. The Squadron Supreme investigated the Avengers and tracked them to Africa where they discovered that the mythical country of Wakanda actually existed, which the Avengers were hiding at. When Wakanda's cloaking field was disabled, the Avengers confronted the Squadron Supreme.; The Squadron and the Avengers fought each other, and the Avengers were able to take out the Squadron with the exception of Nighthawk. By then, Echo and Starbrand had destroyed President Phil Coulson's Pandemonium Cube, the reason Earth-616 had become Earth-21798, resulting in reality being returned to normal. The memories of the Squadron Supreme were transferred to their Earth-616 counterpart. What became of the Squadron afterward is unrevealed.

The Squadron first had to take out Kang's pawns, the Redeemers who wanted to alter reality so the Squadron Supreme were no more. After the Redeemers were either killed or knocked out, Squadron field leader Elektra confronted Kang and tricked him into dropping his force field so Winter Soldier could kill him with a special bullet, though Winter Soldier was also killed. After the mission, the surviving members of the Redeemers were integrated into the Squadron, and all of its members had their memories altered once again.

+The Star Raiders were a group of escapees from the prison planet of Torgo who successfully engaged in space piracy. When they were contacted by the ruler of the planet Zenn, Zenogg, to attack and plunder their neighboring planet Quo, the Star Raiders accepted also because it was known that the inhabitants of Zenn were incapable of lying and Zenogg had declared that the inhabitants of Que were of midgets. When they attacked the planet Quo however, the Star Raiders found themselves facing giants who easily captured all of the Star Raiders except their leader Brock. Escaping on the Star Raiders' spaceship, Brock contacted Zenogg asking him how it was possible that an inhabitant of Zenn could have deceived them, but Zenogg replied that he had not deceived them but that he had told the truth because for the inhabitants of Zenn all were gods midgets since they were gigantic, bigger than the mountains.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile in the Shi'ar galaxy on the starship Starjammer
+Weapons: Various swords and Shi'ar energy weapons.
+Transportation: The starship Starjammer
+Notes: As stated in Wizard: X-Men Turn Thirty, Dave Cockrum created the Starjammers to star in their own series, but Marvel repeatedly denied it despite promising to do it. This led to Cockrum deciding to finally introduce the team in the X-Men comic series, with Chris Claremont changing the character of Corsair into Cyclops' father in order to justify their appearance.
+History:
+The Starjammers were a group of renegade spacers who performed acts of piracy and sabotage in the tradition of old English buccaneers. The original Starjammers, Ch'od, Hepzibah, Raza, and their human leader Corsair met in the slave pits of the Shi'ar Empire. This was during the reign of D'ken the Mad when atrocities of the Empire were many. When the four escaped and stole a starship, they swore vengeance on the tyrannical government that had enslaved them. They battled the empire aboard their ship, the Starjammer (of which they have at least two). Soon others joined the Starjammers to fight for freedom (and money).; When D'Ken attempted to steal the power of the M'kraan Crystal, the Starjammers first met the X-Men (including Corsair's son, Scott). They teamed up to fight the Royal Elite Imperial Guard, who were protecting the insane emperor D'Ken. In a roundabout way, the Starjammers were responsible for putting Lilandra on the throne, and she stopped the Empire's attempts at capturing the Starjammers.; <!-- ...; ...; ...; ...; ...; ...; ...; ...; ...; ...; -->; When the X-Men came to Shi'ar space to stop Corsair's son Gabriel (also known as Vulcan) from slaughtering the Shi'ar, Corsair and the Starjammers agreed to help. Confronting Gabriel, who was poised to become emperor after killing D'Ken, Corsair ordered his child to stop the carnage. Bitterly declaring that he had no father, Gabriel murdered Corsair in cold blood. His place as leader of the Starjammers was then taken by his son, Alex.; Alex led the Starjammers and the Shi'ar loyal to Lilandra to many victories over Vulcan. However, the Starjammers (save Rachel, Korvus and Lilandra) were eventually captured after battling a new interstellar threat claiming to have originally owned the M'kraan Crystal. The Starjammers were tortured repeatedly until they were freed by their comrades and escaped into Kree Space, arriving just prior to the wedding of Crystal and Ronan the Accuser. Lorna Dane, considered family as she was believed to be the paternal aunt of Luna Maximoff, secured their passage.; The Starjammers were present when the Imperial Guard sacked the wedding. They aided the Kree in their fight against Vulcan and the Shi'ar.; When the Guardians of the Galaxy and the past X-Men tried to follow the Shi'ar, who had abducted the Jean Grey of the past to put her on trial for the crimes of the Phoenix, they were discovered and attacked. During the battle, they ran across the Starjammers, who saved them from the Shi'ar, and revealed to have a living Corsair back as their leader.; During the universal war brought on by the Reckoning, the Human Torch, after taking control of the Annihilation Wave, asked the Starjammers to help with defeating the Reckoning, alongside the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Unparalleled. They helped the Kree/Skrull Alliance to defeat the Mekkans, before getting the help of Ego the Living Planet and the Imperial Guard to confront the Reckoning on the Watchers' planet.; For unknown reasons, the Starjammers booted Corsair out of the crew, forcing him to wander space on his own.

+Notes: The Stepford Cuckoos first appeared in New X-Men Vol 1 118. However, they were not identified by name until they are collectively called "the Stepford Cuckoos" in New X-Men Vol 1 123. Esme was also named during this issue. Sophie, Phoebe, Celeste, and Mindee were later named in New X-Men Vol 1 134, New X-Men Vol 1 149, New X-Men Vol 1 153, and New X-Men Vol 1 156 respectively. In New X-Men: Academy X Yearbook Vol 1 1, their last name was confirmed as "Cuckoo". Originally the girls chose the codename the Five-In-One, but with the deaths of Sophie and Esme the remaining sisters are now known as the "Three-In-One".; Later Matt Fraction retconned Mindee's name to actually be Irma to comply with creator Grant Morrison's original desire for first letters the quintuplet's first names to spell "SPICE", hence Sophie, Phoebe, Irma (or Mindee), Celeste, and Esme.; In New X-Men Vol 1 154, creator Grant Morrison's final issue of New X-Men, the Stepford Cuckoos are identified as Weapon XIV. However, their link to the Weapon Plus program is finally explored in the Phoenix Warsong miniseries.; The power level of the Cuckoos, in all of their incarnations, has been reported by many of the X-Men (including Professor X, Jean Grey, Emma Frost, and Beast) to be extremely impressive and strong.
+Trivia: The name "The Stepford Cuckoos" is derived from a combination of "The Stepford Wives" and "The Midwich Cuckoos", two psychological, science-fiction thrillers.; During the Phoenix Warsong miniseries, the Phoenix Force implies the girls' surname, Cuckoo, is actually a clever code. The cuckoo bird lays its eggs in another bird's nest, who then tends to the eggs until they hatch. This refers to Sublime placing his Weapon XIV, the Stepford Cuckoos, in the X-Men's nest, the Institute, to be trained.; The Stepford Cuckoos have had very bad luck with their boyfriends. Additionally, whenever one of the Stepford Cuckoos has become involved in a romantic relationship, her sisters have usually expressed strong disapproval.; Esme's boyfriend Kato, who appeared to be a Japanese mutant, turned out to actually be a sponge-like alien, and an advance scout of the Shi'ar Super-guardian Team.; Quentin Quire had a crush on Sophie, which she did not reciprocate. This crush partial inspired the events that lead to the riot at Xaviers, and indirectly to Sophie's death.; It is implied that Esme had a romantic physical relationship with Xorneto.; Mindee's first boyfriend, Germaine, died during an anti-mutant riot while the students were temporarily housed in an X-Corp building in Salem Center.; Mindee later had a brief yet combative flirtation with Jay Guthrie, who repeatedly interrupted her while she was practicing the piano. Although the relationship did not progress, Jay died a rather gruesome death at the hands of Nimrod and Rev. William Stryker.; The girls have intermittently shown a romantic interest in Hellion. Phoebe, Celeste, and Mindee all attended a school dance with Hellion, who quickly abandoned them in favor of Wind Dancer. Later, the other girls briefly teased Celeste for having a crush on Hellion.; Celeste briefly had a crush on Agent Jake Oh, who was present when she murdered her incubated sisters and lost her emotional ability to feel.; For a time, the girls dated the teenage version of Cable, though it was casual and they enjoyed making fun of him in private. Esme eventually developed a real connection with him and kept his necklace as a memento when he returned to the future.; During this time, Phoebe also began dating Quentin Quire in secret.; The Cuckoos were voted "Teacher's Pet" in the New X-Men: Academy X Yearbook Vol 1 1. It also lists their likes as classical music, and dislikes as unreasonable expectations.; The Cuckoos are almost always seen wearing matching outfits with their hair styled similarly. There are very few exceptions to this habit.; Although the Cuckoos are biologically in their mid-to-late teens, chronologically they are only a few years old.; Although the Stepford Cuckoos can transform into their diamond form at will, they rarely use this power.; While Phoebe and Mindee enjoy Glee, Celeste appears to find the show vapid and shallow.; In an apparent reference to Taylor Kitsch's character in Friday Night Lights, the girls chose their birthday based on their favorite actor in Sophie's favorite show.
+History:
+===Origin===; After the confrontation with Trevor Fitzroy, Emma Frost was plunged into a coma for a year. During her unconscious state, Dr. John Sublime harvested over 1000 eggs from her to begin experimentation.; The Weapon Plus program then used the eggs to create thousands of identical mutant girls in the hope of developing a powerful weapon capable of killing every mutant on Earth by combining their telepathic abilities. The project was designated Weapon XIV and the girls were incubated and artificially aged inside the subterranean level of The World. While most girls remained dormant, five were sent to infiltrate the Xavier Institute as student sisters to hone their talents for Sublime's purpose.; ===Xavier Institute===; After the Xavier Institute went public, the orphan quintuplet sisters Sophie, Phoebe, Mindee, Celeste, and Esme were enrolled. To protect their secret origins, the girls unconsciously placed mental blocks in the minds of the faculty, preventing them from investigating their background.; The girls quickly gained the moniker "The Stepford Cuckoos", though their chosen codename was the Five-In-One. Emma Frost assisted the girls when Esme had a crush on a student who turned out to be Stuff, an advanced guard of the Shi'ar. This sparked Emma to take a special interest in the girls, and the Cuckoos becoming her protégés. As gifted telepaths, they were registered into Professor X's psychic course along with their rival Quentin Quire.; Quire developed a crush on Sophie, but the Cuckoos considered him to be odd and completely rejected him. Sparked by his uncontrolled powers and learning that he was adopted, and fueled by use of the drug Kick, Kid Omega led a rebellion of students at the X-Mansion. To stop Kid Omega and his Omega Gang, Sophie and the other Cuckoos covertly snuck into Cerebra. Using Kick to amp up her powers, Sophie and her sisters were able to stop Quire. Unfortunately, Sophie died in the process. Unbeknownst to the others, Sophie was actually being influenced into these actions by Esme, who was also using Kick.; With the death of Sophie, the Five-In-One became the Four-In-One. The girls were furious with Emma Frost, whom they blamed for Sophie's death. To exact their revenge, they informed Jean Grey of the psychic affair between Emma and Cyclops.; Not long after Sophie's death, Esme attempted to murder Emma by shooting her with a diamond bullet. While Bishop and Sage investigated the murder, Esme fled the X-Mansion fearing that the truth would be revealed about her involvement in the deaths of Sophie and Emma. Fortunately, Emma was saved by the combined efforts of Beast and Jean Grey with the Phoenix Force.; When Esme returned, it was alongside her lover, Xorn, posing as Magneto and his Brotherhood of Mutants. Esme and Xorn had both become mentally unstable through excessive use of Kick. When Xorn's affection was withheld from her, Esme turned on him, and Xorn killed her by burying her metal earrings in her brain. With the departure and later death of Esme, the Four-In-One became the Three-In-One.; The girls were among the students temporarily relocated to an X-Corp building in Salem Center while the Institute was being rebuilt. It was here that Mindee's first boyfriend, Germaine, died during an anti-mutant riot.; When the Institute was rebuilt under the leadership of co-headmasters Cyclops and Emma Frost, the students were organized into several training squads, each with an assigned mentor staff member. The Three-In-One was assigned to the Corsairs Squad under the tutelage of Cyclops, with the girls serving equally as co-leaders of the squad.; When Wing was injured from his altercation with Ord, the Cuckoos summoned Elixir to heal him.; When the Phoenix Force returned to Earth in search of a new host, it briefly considered the girls along with Kid Omega and Emma Frost before resurrecting Jean Grey. The Phoenix Force awoke Kid Omega, still in love with Sophie, and he exhumed her in hopes of reuniting with her. However, upon her resurrection, she promptly rejected Quire and died again. While the X-Men rushed to intercept the Phoenix, the Cuckoos remained in Cerebra as communication central.; ===M-Day===; On M-Day the vast majority of the world's mutant population was depowered. The Cuckoos retained their powers, but they were three of only twenty-seven students to retain their powers. Fearing for the students' safety, Emma Frost ordered that the depowered students and staff leave the Institute. For their safety, the depowered students were brought through the Morlock Tunnels to an awaiting bus. Unfortunately, the bus of depowered students was bombed by anti-mutant zealot Rev. William Stryker, killing forty-two of the former students on board.; The remaining students were placed by Emma Frost into an all-out brawl, and the ones deemed the best by Emma would become a group of New X-Men in-training. This entire exercise was met with disgust by the Three-In-One, who promptly informed Cyclops of Emma's actions.; ===Warsong===; When an unstable fraction of the Phoenix Force sparked inside the girls, their dormant Weapon Plus nanotech inside their bones was activated. This nanotech briefly reanimated Sophie and Esme, who directed their sisters back to The World to activate Sublime's plan for the destruction of the mutant race.; The Phoenix and Sublime both wrestled for control of the Cuckoos when the X-Men arrived. Phoebe and Mindee were captured and integrated into Sublime's machine, but the Phoenix was able to possess Celeste. When Celeste was finally merged into the machine, the Phoenix was divided between all the Cuckoos and trapped in their newly emerged second mutation: organic diamond hearts. This event finally activated the Thousand-In-One.; Celeste continued to resist the Phoenix and Sublime's machine long enough for the X-Men to forcibly disconnect them. However, in a rage, Phoebe triggered a power surge causing an explosion. However, Celeste was able take full control of the Phoenix, destroyed her sisters, and trapped the Phoenix fragments inside the Three-In-One's flawless diamond hearts, rendering them emotionless.; After returning to the Institute, the girls adopted a rebellious/mischievous streak. They helped Elixir telepathically gain a PhD level knowledge of science and biology from Beast's brain. Along with the other students, they were pulled into Limbo, where they were rescued by Prodigy. To repay his kindness, the Cuckoos restored all of the knowledge he had previously gained with the use of his powers, despite his powers being deactivated. When the Hulk came to the Institute to attack Professor X, the Stepford Cuckoos used Cerebra to contact other X-teams such as Excalibur and X-Factor Investigations for assistance. The sisters were briefly considered as potential candidate recruits for the Initiative.; After the birth of the first mutant since M-Day, the Stepford sisters were stationed in Cerebra to search for the baby and acting as central communication for the various X-squads.; ===Utopia===; The Stepford Cuckoos rejoined the X-Men and the last of mutantkind in San Francisco. During the Skrull Invasion, they assisted in the evacuation of a San Francisco Hospital, and later offered remote support to Emma while was bringing down the Skrulls' psychic blockade.; The Cuckoos aided Elixir and the X-Force briefly when Elixir wanted to depart the team. Out of loyalty to Cyclops, they agreed to maintain X-Force's secret status.; Once they relocated to Utopia, the Stepford Cuckoos frequently manned Cerebra. When Lobe and Scalphunter with a group of Predator Xs attacked Utopia, the X-Men were forced to battle the mutant eating creatures. The Cuckoos served as telepathic communication for the team, but during the battle the Phoenix fragments that were contained inside their diamond hearts escaped, and mysteriously returned to space, leaving the girls unconscious.; When the girls recovered from their coma, they recruited Rogue to borrow their telepathy to help search for the Phoenix, but with no luck. Later the girls fell into a depressive funk due to the loss of their Phoenix powers.; While on a brief trip to Manhattan, the girls beat Spider-Man to thwarting a bank robbery.; Although not on the active roster for any one team, the Stepford Cuckoos continued to offer remote telepathic and Cerebra-based support for Cyclops, the X-Men, X-Force, Hope and her Lights, Magneto, and the Extinction Team.; When the Chaos King put all of the living to sleep and opened the underworld, both Sophie and Esme were among the resurrected. Although tension ran high between the two, they were able to help defeat the Carrion Crow and resolve some of the issues surrounding their deaths.; ===Schism===; After Cyclops and Wolverine decided to part ways, Phoebe wanted to return to Westchester while Mindee wanted to remain on Utopia. With the deciding vote left to Celeste, she opted to stay on Utopia, partly because of Quentin Quire's presence at the school.; When the Phoenix Force returned to Earth searching for a new host leading to the war between the Avengers and the X-Men, the Stepford Cuckoos were among the younger X-Men detained in the Avengers Compound with the Avengers Academy. Afterward, they were reluctantly recruited to the new Jean Grey School, where they manned Cerebra and witnessed the death of Professor X and the reemergence of mutantkind.; The girls were very displeased with the new school. When Cyclops and his X-Men came to the school looking for recruits to their mutant rebellion, the Stepford sisters and Angel volunteered to go.; ===Mutant Revolution===; The girls joined and assisted Cyclops' team as the resident telepaths, since Emma's powers were broken. During this time, Irma dyed her hair black and expressed that she wished to attain more individuality. Phoebe entertained the thought of doing the same, and eventually dyed hers red. Although Celeste was upset, Emma was supportive of her choice as well.; Later, following an attack from the future Brotherhood of Mutants, the Stepford Cuckoos and Emma Frost combined their telepathic abilities in an effort to defeat Xorn (Jean Grey). Although they were initially able to hold their own, they were all defeated, leaving Xorn to continue the psychic duel with her younger counterpart.; After Cyclops disbanded the New Xavier School and requested that the students enroll in the Jean Grey School, the Cuckoos, along with the other students, were outraged. They assisted Dazzler in capturing Mystique by mentally penetrating her psychic shields and making her believe that Dazzler was Cyclops, luring her into a trap. Later, the sisters and David concocted a plan to not join the other school and create their own group.; The students appeared at a high school to stop an angry mutant, Blake, who had the power to summon demons. The Cuckoos shifted into their diamond form and simultaneously used their telepathy to hinder Blake's assault on her mutant-hating father. During the onslaught, Celeste was injured, but was quickly healed by Triage. This battle made Goldballs an internet sensation until the public found out he was a mutant and was injured by a glass bottle. Enraged, the Cuckoos nearly kill the mutant-hating attacker. After this, they finally decided to join the Jean Grey School and admit to Storm that they were not ready for the world and the world was not ready for them.; ===House of X===; After more than a year, the Cuckoos returned to their natural hair color and matching costumes. And, eventually, they joined the mutant nation of Krakoa, acting as psychic emissaries for the United Nations ambassadors invited to the Jerusalem Habitat. Thanks to the resurrection abilities of The Five on Krakoa, Sophie and Esme joined the Cuckoos once again.; ==Characteristics==; Height: 5'6"; Weight: 105 lbs (47.6 kg); Eyes: Blue; Hair: Blonde; -; ==Personalities==; The personalities of the five girls are often quite similar in terms of speaking and action. Though the girls do have their occasional arguments from time to time, they all more or less act the same and do things together. On the flip side, each Cuckoo has demonstrated a different interest and/or personality trait when they are not all together, e.g. one being kinder than the others, one being timider, or one being tough and outspoken.; ===Sophie===; Sophie was initially the dominant personality among her sisters. She and her sisters have mentioned that Sophie always had a desire to be a hero. Her actions certainly appear the most noble.; ===Phoebe===; Phoebe has demonstrated some aggressive behavior, especially when the Phoenix came to possess the Stepford sisters. Phoebe desired to embrace the Phoenix and all its destructive power. Phoebe has often acted as the de facto leader since the death of Sophie. Phoebe was one of the few mutants unaffected by Zero's mental control when he turned Utopia against Hope, which put her at odds with her sisters. After Cyclops and Wolverine decided to part ways, Phoebe wanted to return to Westchester.; ===Irma Mindee===; Irma/Mindee enjoys playing piano. She was certainly the most consigned to their fate as tools of Sublime. During Osborn's assault on the X-Men, Cyclops assigned Irma to be captured. Acting as a Trojan horse, through her link with her sisters Irma was able to lead the X-Men to Alcatraz Island, where Osborn had secretly been imprisoning mutants. After Cyclops and Wolverine decided to part ways, Mindee wanted to remain on Utopia.; ===Celeste===; Celeste was initially the most timid and affectionate of the Cuckoos. When the Phoenix came to possess the Stepford sisters, Celeste was reluctant to use the power. However, it was Celeste honed the Phoenix Force into destroying their incubated sisters and trapping the Phoenix fragments in their diamond hearts. According to her sisters, Celeste has began to think she's "better" than them. Celeste has urged her sisters to watch something a bit more self-improving than Glee. Celeste was the deciding vote to remain on Utopia. When Emma Frost and the Extinction Team became outlaws, Celeste telepathically reached out to Emma and when she couldn't contact her, she became extremely angry.; ===Esme===; Esme was the most conniving and cunning of her sisters. To gain control over her sisters, Esme began using Kick and working with Xorneto. She covertly influenced Sophie into overdosing on Kick. She later shot Emma Frost and then ran away to join Xorn's new Brotherhood.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; The Stepford Cuckoos are mutants with psychically based powers similar to their biological mother, Emma Frost. The girls have demonstrated the following powers:; Telepathic Hive Mind: The Stepford Cuckoos have a linked hive mind, which allows them to share thoughts and maintain a continuous telepathic connection. The link is strongest when the girls are in close physical proximity. This mental phalanx also allows for increased telepathic strength and shared intellect. The girls' powers are greater the sum of its parts. A stronger personality can take lead of the hive mind, but the girls still maintain their independence.; Telepathy: The Cuckoos can read minds and project their thoughts to others. Though they individually possess their own telepathy, but their telepathic abilities are greater when the girls join together. The girls have stated that together they can block even very talented telepaths from reading their minds.; Illusions: The Cuckoos can create realistic psychic illusions and cause people to experience events which are not actually occurring.; Mind Alteration: The Cuckoos are able to alter the minds of others by force of will. This can be restoring memories or transferring knowledge.; Telepathic Tracking: The Cuckoos' psionic senses enable them to detect and track other sentient beings by their unique psionic emanations or thought patterns. This ability is highly sensitive to proximity, but can be enhanced with the use of Cerebra.; Astral Projection: The Cuckoos are capable of sending astral projections, astral travel, and communicating with others astrally through their own will, or through contact with the thoughts and memories of others.; Paralysis: The Cuckoos are able to effect certain areas of the brain to induce temporary mental or physical paralysis.; Memory Erasure and Restoration: The Cuckoos can erase any awareness of particular memories or cause total amnesia. They can also restore memories.; Mental Triangulation: Due to their hive mind, the Cuckoos have the perspective of multiple directions and are able to triangulate on individuals' minds.; Gestalt Psychic Link: The Cuckoos shared ability to merge their psionic engrams together and merge individual telepathic powers as one enables the acquisition of far greater psychic capability than the sum of its parts.

Only Deathbird accompanied the X-Ternals to the planet's surface where their mission would be a success. It would also see D'Ken left in a paralyzed state, trapped within the crystal.

+Starstealth was a group of Kree who sought vengeance for their world's defeat in the Kree-Shi'ar War. At first, they were satisfied to attack other races, ensuring that theirs was not the only race to suffer. Eventually, they somehow located a Rigellian Recorder, which contained orders for them to destroy Wonder Man and the Vision for their roles in Hala's destruction. They went into cryogenic suspension and headed for Earth.; Once they arrived on Earth, Lo ordered the team to assault the Avengers Compound. While Force Works handled the team, Wonder Man headed into space to take care of the ion cannon Lo was firing from their ship in orbit. The explosion of the cannon dispersed Wonder Man's atoms, at the time thought to have been his death.; Starstealth was incarcerated at the Vault and the Rigellian Recorder remained with Force Works, its true mission unknown to them. The Recorder eventually took over the security system at the Vault, allowing Starstealth to escape. Although Kalen Lo was captured, the others escaped. The remaining unnamed members did not survive the battle with Force Works that followed, but Stug Bar and Zamsed were captured. Kalum Lo, Stug Bar, and Zamsed were all turned over to the Interstellar War Tribunal.

They were allies of the Hellfire Club, and they helped Frost try to eliminate Charles Xavier, which made Jean Grey release the Phoenix's power and destroy the X-Mansion.; A year later, they tried to trick a captured Jean into removing the mental barriers herself using illusions of Cyclops along with Emma's illusion of Charles. After this failed, Emma left to help the X-Men and they tried to harness the Phoenix's power for themselves by creating illusions of John Grey. After managing to release the Phoenix, which consumed them, Sebastian Shaw ordered them to destroy the Sentinels and the X-Men, whom they would have killed if Emma had not sacrificed herself by taking the Phoenix and removing the girls from the Phoenix's control. Strangely, the Cuckoos were still in their Phoenix Force costumes when released from the Phoenix's control.; == Powers ==; Telepathic Hive Mind: The Stepford Cuckoos have a linked hive mind, which allows them to share thoughts and maintain a continuous telepathic connection. The link is strongest when the girls are in close physical proximity. Their collective mind also allows for increased telepathic strength and shared intellect. The girls' powers are greater the sum of its parts. A stronger personality can take lead of the hive mind, but the girls still maintain their independence.; Telepathic Illusion: The Cuckoos can create realistic psychic illusions and cause people to experience events which are not actually occurring.; Telepathic Tracking: The Cuckoos' psionic senses enable them to detect and track other sentient beings by their unique psionic emanations or thought patterns. This ability is highly sensitive to proximity.; Mental Sedation: The ability to telepathically "sedate" one's victims so that, if already rendered unconscious, they remain so for as long as a telepath continues to "sedate" them.; Psionic Blasts: The Cuckoos can project psionic force bolts or blast waves which have no physical effects but which can affect a victim's mind so as to cause the victim pain or unconsciousness and can even kill an adversary.

+History:
+The Board of Directors of Stark Unlimited was the executive committee that supervised the activities of the company. Following Feilong's hostile takeover of Stark Unlimited, he appointed new board members that aligned with his values, returning Stark's company to the weapon-manufacturing business. The new Board included the likes of Jack Kooning Jr. and Melinda May.; After Tony Stark took back the reins of his company, he attempted to incite the Board of Directors to phase out weapons manufacturing. However, A.I.M. partnered with Roxxon to exploit the transitory period, making the lucrative offer to acquire the company at current share price, which the Board was willing to take and only needed to vote on it. Although Stark only managed to convince May to turn to his side when the vote was called, the existence of "Starxxon" was short-lived. When the demon Belasco revealed his involvement as the representative of Roxxon's supernatural benefactors, Stark persuaded them of the unsustainability of the merger. They withdrew their support and turned against the board, giving Iron Man a chance to negotiate their safety in exchange for annuling the merger and resigning.

+History:
+Strikeforce X is a team of agents that used humans as test subjects and were given animal-like senses, enhanced strength and reflexes (probably drug-induced), an artificially engineered healing factor (techno-organic), nanites in their blood to help regrow tissue, adamantium-laced skeletons, energy claws, and maybe some bionic implants as well. They are not actually mutants but humans with enhancements given to them.; Each amongst the crew are equipped with unique ammunition stock tailored specifically to hamper the hyper regenerative abilities of more robust individuals. The slugs cost a few hundred grand per-bullet to manufacture, so discharging them recklessly is rather costly.; The mercenary unit Strikeforce X had been manufactured by a Roxxon corp. subsidiary known as Blackguard using stolen Weapon X files. Their services sold to politically sensitive hot zones all across the globe for a hefty sum, all of which being a long play in order to draw Logan to them so the commissioner of their creation; a Chief Executive of said PMC facilitator, can present evidence of termination to ready & waiting military figures on top of the shareholders at his next board meeting.; The true purpose of this new private militia was to show off a living weapons test, using dishonorably discharged army renegades as viable test subjects whom the executive would deploy to volatile case areas touched by Roxxon or any other developmental contractors with deep pockets and black souls to serve whatever grizzly ends they need to meet.; All for the general purpose of overtaking the armed forces market in the long run, generally replacing nationally coopted servicepeople with Strikeforce X platoons in a bid to push a massive multi-governmental spanning contract. Making them the de-factor military of the USA by a half decades end.; Such plans were eventually stymied indefinitely by the intervention of Nord, Wolverine and the published article of one Melita Garner which exposed Blackguards amoral dealings under the table to the wider public. All while Wolverine dispatched what remained of the Chief's remaining forces by blasting the oilrig they'd all been waiting on in the middle of the ocean, taking advantage of the buoyancy deficiency the mercs new modifications come with to finish most of them in one fell swoop. Meanwhile, Maverick would find the whistleblower whom he'd sold the files to that were used in creating Strikeforce X and cutting him down as punishment for his misdeeds. On top of covering his own tracks in the long run.; The last remining operatives stranded on a deserted island with the fallen executive would find new employment in the services of Kade Kilgore, whom would order said remnants to slaughter one another to earn positions as his bodyguards.

Selected by Prince Shinto, they were trained to be loyal suicide bombers. Just prior to the end of the war, Shinto and his Suicide Battalion were deployed to an island almost completely lost to the Japanese that was of great strategic importance. There he sent his young charges to blow up various American air fields, military bases, and ammunition depots.; When the American military realized what they were dealing with, they called in the Young Allies to help deal with the problem. When Shinto and his men learned of the Allies arrival, he ordered them captured but stressed to his youthful charges that they should gun down Toro as he posed the biggest threat to them. When the Suicide Battalion found the who they thought were the Young Allies, they soon found they had captured decoys -- after gunning down the one disguised as Toro.; Soon the Young Allies came to rescue their decoy and everyone but Toro was captured as well. However, Toro soon arrived with American bombers and freed his friends while American bombs leveled the Japanese base. As Shinto and his wards attempted to escape Toro went after them. While the Suicide Battalion attempted to shoot Toro, one of their stray bullets struck a crate of TNT causing an explosion that killed the remaining members of the team.

Here they introduced the Dozen to Zephyr Zog, the Dozen's inside contact and a Nazi scientist who wished to see the end of the zombie infection on his world. Zog arranged to transport the Dozen and the Suffragists to the Nazis inner sanctum where they would be tasked with destroying their trans-dimensional battleship, preventing the Nazis from attacking other worlds in the Multiverse.; Suffragists members Columbia and Libertas died during the mission and Miss America selflessly sacrificed her own life to ensure that an atomic bomb would detonate on the inner sanctum of the Nazi zombie forces, destroying them and their threat to the Multiverse.

+Notes: Throughout the comic's run, Strikeforce Morituri went through several "generations", each one introducing new members to the team:; The first generation featured Snapdragon, Vyking, Marathon, Adept, Radian, and Blackthorne. All of these members (with the exception of Radian, who was killed by Shear under the belief he was a traitor) died from the Morituri Effect.; The second generation introduced Scaredycat, Scatterbrain, and Toxyn. All three died from the Morituri Effect.; The third generation introduced Backhand, Brava, Hardcase, Shear, Silencer, and Wildcard. Backhand and Wildcard died from the Morituri Effect, Brava was assassinated by Tiger sometime after the Horde War ended, Hardcase and Silencer were killed by a microwave cannon, and Shear fell to his death in a fight with Scanner.; The fourth generation introduced Revenge, Scanner, Burn, and Lifter. Notably, this generation saw a breakthrough in the Morituri Process, as Revenge had contracted a virus while in Horde captivity that countered the body's rejection of the process, effectively preventing the Morituri Effect from occurring anymore.
+History:
+In the year 2072, three years after Earth had been invaded by the Horde, Dr. Tuolema perfected what was dubbed the "Morituri Process", a two-step procedure that allowed people with a specific type of genetic structure to have a new metabolism overlaid on top of their original one. The first step would enhance their physical attributes, while the second would grant them superpowers. However, the Morituri Process had three major drawbacks: very few people were compatible with it (estimated to be less than 5% of the human population), the optimal age was between 18 and 21 (older subjects experienced a significantly reduced lifespan), and the nature of the new metabolism meant that the human body would reject it after a year (which was determined to be 100% fatal to the human body). Following the initial test of the procedure with The Black Watch, whose members all died under various circumstances, Strikeforce Morituri was formed in its place.

Following this action, Hashikura and his followers were martyred suicide according to the rituals of Bushido. All but Osamu Akutagawa, who lived in shame for not having followed his mentor to death. Determined to redeem himself, Akutagawa created Strikeforce Ukiyoe with the intention of fighting back against the Westernization of Japan.

Arriving at the Temple of the Three, they fought their way through the Vridai before coming across their leaders, Count Ophidian and Liege Knight Birgit.; After tracking the Vridai across the world, they discovered the Count Ophidian they had encountered wasn't, in fact, the real one, as he had been held prisoner by Birgit all this time. Scared of his "new captors", Count Ophidian revealed that the Vridai had lost their home after the War of the Realms and they had nowhere to go, so the team agreed to help "another wandering soul".; Their next stop was Monster Island, where they established a temporary base with Deadpool's consent. After a while there, Spider-Woman, Blade, and Winter Soldier found themselves having to fight each other in a bar fight, and after Jess won, she was offered a job offer by Don Buggini to go pro. She didn't put much thought into it, but kept Don Buggini's business card.; When leaving the bar, they were ambushed by Birgit, leading Count Ophidian to be kidnapped again. They followed Birgit to Svartalfheim and managed to return safely to Monster Island alongside Ophidian, but it still wasn't safe for him. Thinking back to her job offer, Jessica called for a ring fight where the team had to confront countless monsters and even each other. The team were ignorant of Jess's plan and were growing impatient after taking on so many opponents, but after a long battle, Spider-Woman managed to knock everyone out and revealed herself to actually be Count Ophidian in disguise, was then declared the winner and offered a job and residence in the Island.; After having a celebratory dinner, the team briefed the Avengers on everything that happened the past few weeks and parted ways.

A splinter faction of A.I.M. chartered by Reginald Fisher headed up the Storyteller 2.0 program, seeking to branch out into stock markets and money management due to his faction having acted as the Organization's accountants.; By feeding them intel on whatever it is their firms top brass want to make reality, the mini M.O.D.O.C.s can rewrite reality around them in order to make it happen.; What their creators didn't realize was that the new Storyteller's were more cognizant than the beekeepers gave them credit for.

When they enlisted the super mercenary Deadpool's services in order to recover them for personal interests.

+Transportation: Interdimensional Travel
+Notes: The history of the Summoners is somewhat confused, especially since their High Summoner is a noted liar.
+Trivia: The Summoners and the beings they summon seem to be based on the Cthulhu Mythos.
+History:
+The Summoners have been around since the first war between Amenth and Okkara. A female Summoner was present at the negotiation between the Okkaran and Amenthi forces, and departed in Arakko to seal off the portal to Amenth and was seemingly on the side of the mutants.; On the other side a number of Okkaran mutants were overwhelmed by the hellish energies of the planet and ran off resulting in their capture by Annihilation who then forced these mutants to breed with her Daemons creating the hybrid sub-race known as the Vile Schools. This was a secret project of the Summoners who formed another branch to seemingly serve Amenth, which they did for millenia.; During the hundreds of years of war the Summoners of Arakko allegedly began to drop, but with the secret branch serving Amenth they were actually at full strength.; The High Summoner of Arrako, who had been born there was sent to find his grandfather Apocalypse. This spurred his grandmother Genesis to become one with Annihilation, conquering what she saw as a fallen Arakko in the name of Amenth, the Summoners became a prison guards of the Arakkii population's enemies.; The High Summoner returned to Arrako through the External Gate his grandfather made for him. He wounded his own guard who were sent Apocalypse to accompany him and returned to Krakoa for more assistance. He was able to bring his grandfather and his team of Krakoans to Otherworld where he was greeted by his family that had surrendered to Amenth and Annihilation and attacked Apocalypse and his team.; During the war between Amenth and Krakoa in Otherworld, all of the Summoners were summoned at the Otherworld battlefield so they could help Annihilation in conquering Krakoa. However, they weren't enough and after Annihilation's defeat, the Summoners were left on Blightspoke where they yoke the survivors of dead realities, making it easier for the Vescora to strip-mine the place, all in the service of their new Mistress, Saturnyne.; Saturnyne was eventually dethroned, and with their master gone most of the Summoners left Blightspoke to return to Amenth. The few Summoners that remained in Blightspoke either became tainted or were captured by Orchis. Later they were conquered by Genesis who sought to make them part of her armada to assault the mutants of Arakko to force them into becoming stronger. One of the Summoners informed Genesis and her horsemen about the demise of Tarn the Uncaring, shocking her.; They assisted Genesis in her war against the Arakko's Brotherhood, arriving to Planet Arakko alongside the Daemons and White Sword's Ninety-Nine Champions. It's unknown what exactly happened to them following Genesis' defeat.

However, Storm's profile in Women of Marvel: Celebrating Seven Decades Handbook Vol 1 1 confirms that events of this volume indeed happened in Kenya.
+History:
+This group of children was gathered by Teacher in a small unnamed village in Kenya. Most of them were orphans from many African countries, including, Kenya, Rwanda, Sudan, Ethiopia, South Africa and Ghana. Teacher taught them how to survive in the world, which mainly consisted of the skills of stealing, pickpocketing, and lockpicking.; At some point 12-years-old Ororo Munroe joined the group. Like them, she was an orphan, and was previously a member of another group of child thieves in Cairo, Egypt, a prized disciple of their leader Achmed El Gibár. Achmed and the Teacher were friends, so Teacher accepted her and continued teaching Ororo. Zenja, Teacher's own daughter, always disliked Ororo for being treated good by her father, and for being an American, who just pretended to be a child of Africa.; One day Ororo stole a camera from Claude de Ruyter. Claude and his followers were armed, and tried to shot Ororo down. Instinctively she tapped into her mutant powers and summoned the storm, distracting Claude and others long enough to escape. Claude noticed her strange white hair and how her eyes went completely white for a moment, before the lightning strike, so he realized that she was a Wind Rider and decided to capture her no mater the cost. Zenja decided to sold out Ororo and help Claude capture her. However, after hearing the constant rambling of Claude and his people about slaves and black people always betraying each other, she changed her mind. Zenja lead them in circles, but they eventually noticed it, so she escaped and cried urchin's secret code to warn Ororo to run away. The girls were almost captured, but were saved by Prince T'Challa of Wakanda.; T'Challa and Ororo spent several days together and then left the urchins. Meanwhile, Claude de Ruyter with his mercenaries tracked down the urchins, they mercelesly killed all the kids and the Teacher, leaving only Zenja, who told them that Ororo left with the prince of Wakanda.

+History:
+===General===; The Super-Apes is a general term given to the name of the primates used by the Russian scientist and criminal Ivan Kragoff, aka the Red Ghost. The purpose of this entry is to catalogue the history of all the apes that Kragoff has used over the years.; ===Early Experiments===; In order to understand Cosmic Radiation, Kragoff irradiated hundreds of apes. While these apes became sentient, they gained no powers and died in agony. Kragoff would look on as they begged him for help.; ===The Original Apes===; The original apes that became the first incarnation of Ivan Kragoff's Super-Apes included the gorilla Miklho, the orangutan Peotor, and Igor the baboon. These apes were trained to be obedient and follow the verbal commands of Kragoff. When Ivan sought to replicate the accident that gave the Fantastic Four their powers, he brought the apes along with him aboard his ship. As per his specifications they were bombarded with even more Cosmic Rays than the Fantastic Four and were endowed with enhanced abilities. Miklho gained super-strength, Peotor the power over magnetism, and Igor gained shapeshifting abilities. Their missing coincided with the Fantastic Four's mission to investigate the Blue Area of the Moon. There the Igor -- now calling himself the Red Ghost due to his ability to become intangible -- and his Super-Apes attacked the Fantastic Four. The battle attracted the attention of the Watcher an alien being charged with observing and recording human history. After briefly subduing the Super-Apes he allowed the two factions to fight it out. The Ghost captured the Fantastic Four's Invisible Girl and had his apes watch over them. When the Invisible Girl learned that Ivan kept his apes obedient by withholding food she fed them and they soon turned on their master, allowing the Fantastic four to leave and strand the Red Ghost and his apes on the moon.; The Red Ghost managed to make his apes obedient to him again and he constructed a ship that could be controlled by Peotor's magnetic powers. He used this ship to later strand the Fantastic Four on the moon. When the Fantastic Four sought refuge in the Watcher's citadel, the Red Ghost and his apes went after him. When the Red Ghost was lost in a dimensional portal, the Super-Apes fled back to Earth in their own ship. When the Red Ghost resurfaced he found his Super-Apes and returned to the Moon to try and loot the Watcher's citadel for its advanced technology. He and his Super-Apes walked through a chronal spike which transported them a number of years in the future where they interacted with future versions of themselves before ultimately being returned back to their own time empty handed. The Super-Apes later accompanied their master when he was manipulated by Dr. Doom into attacking the wedding of Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Girl. The apes clashed with the Fantastic Four until they and the Red Ghost were banished to a mystical realm by Sorcerer Supreme Dr. Strange. Kragoff and the Super-Apes were later pulled forward in time by Aron the Rogue Watcher to battle the Fantastic Four and Fantastic Force. When Aron was defeated, all his pawns were returned to their proper eras with no memories of the battle.; ===Alpha and Beta===; Believing that his original Super-Apes were destroyed, the Red Ghost trained two new apes he named Alpha and Beta. At first they were normal apes, but after the Red Ghost had the Unicorn steal a Cosmic Ray from Stark Industries he intended to endow them with super powers. After a clash with the armored hero Iron Man, the Red Ghost did just that, endowing Alpha with enhanced strength and Beta with the ability to control minds. Taking his new Super-Apes to Africa he sent them into the jungles to amass an army of primates to assist in his take over of a SHIELD satellite facility. Although Red Ghost managed to take control of the facility he was attacked by Iron Man and the Unicorn. The tables were turned when Alpha and Beta -- their intelligences enhanced by the Cosmic Ray -- turned on their master forcing him to flee. Alpha and Beta then went into the jungle to lead their army of apes. Their subsequent fate is unknown.; ===Return of the Original Apes===; Red Ghost later learned that his original Super-Apes were alive and well and recovered them. They assisted him in battling Kree soldier Captain Marvel in an attempt to duplicate his Nega-Bands; a plan that ended in failure. They also assisted him in trying to steal Mr. Fantastic's new Gravity Localizer but were opposed by the Human Torch and Spider-Man. Spider-Man was able to stop the Super-Apes from stealing his Spider-Buggy by using fruit pies. When the Red Ghost became trapped in his intangible form he attempted to steal Stark Industries new Cosmitronic Cannon to cure himself, sending his Super-Apes to capture its inventor Iron Man. This led to another clash with Iron Man, which ended in the Red Ghost's apparent demise when the Cosmitronic Cannon made it so if he turned intangible again it would dissipate his atoms. When the Red Ghost reconstituted himself he recovered his Super-Apes when he joined the Leaders' group of genius criminals the Intelligencia. The Super-Apes were used to recover long lost Alexandrian texts from the Eternal realm of Olympia.; The Super-Apes were also used in an attempt to steal a rare mathematical treatise from Empire State University, and the Black Fox was forced to use the Super-Apes in a bank robbery. In both cases these thefts were thwarted by Spider-Man, but the Super-Apes and their master managed to escape. The Super-Apes were also utilized in trying to steal the memory core of the Smartship Friday, but this attempt was thwarted by the Power Pack. Relocating to Belgium, the Red Ghost and his apes were captured by Commander Courage of the Belgium defence ministry. The Super-Apes were fitted with Were-Borgs technorganic implants and put under the control of Commander Courage. By this point the Red Ghost and his apes had formed a mental bond, and due to the Were-Borg tech this bond was slowly killing him. The Super-Apes were used to battle the Beast and the Constrictor. However the Beast reprogrammed the Were-Borg tech making the Super-Apes help him defeat Commander Courage, who was later slain by the Red Ghost. The Apes were also used when the Red Ghost briefly joined the Wizard's latest incarnation of the Frightful Four, but were once again defeated by the Fantastic Four.; Some months later, the Super-Apes gained enhanced intelligence due to their link to the Red Ghost, while the Ghost himself became a simpleton. Becoming aware of animal testing the Super-Apes intended to get revenge by hiding in an research lab at Empire State University where they prepared a nerve gas attack. But this was thwarted by the Fantastic Four. When the Super-Apes were seen again, they and their master were back to their normal mental capacities and shared a cell in the Cage prison. The apes afforded Red Ghost the protection he needed from the more aggressive inmates. During this period he had an ape named Dmitri sharing a cell with him. Dmitri's powers are unrecorded and his fate after Red Ghost escaped the Cage are unknown. When the Fantastic Four were out hunting their various foes, the Red Ghost was also attacked. Despite the assistance of his Super-Apes he was captured once again. Miklho and Peotor soon began developing a renewed intelligence and the Red Ghost put them through communist education before bringing them to the nation of Niganda where their master was working with scientist Erich Paine to create a race of intelligent apes. Finding that Paine tortured his test subjects, Miklho and Peotor helped a rogue baboon in attempting to unleash a virus that would kill off the human population, but their attempt was thwarted by the X-Men and the Black Panther.; The Super-Apes, having reverted back to their base intelligence, were next used by the Red Ghost in a bank robbery, but this was thwarted by the Avengers. Later, the Red Ghost took his loyal creations with him to LA to investigate sightings of Ape-X where they clashed with Speedball a simian hero from Earth-8101. Speedball and Ape-X defeated Red Ghost and the Super-Apes and sent them running.; ===Fall of the Hulks===; Red Ghost brought his Super-Apes with Intelligentia on the delivery of the final cache of Alexandrian texts from Atlantis to Dr. Doom's castle in Latveria. When Doom betrayed them, the Super-Apes defender the master and covered his escape. Soon the Super-Apes were utilized in Intelligentia's upcoming conflict against the Hulk. They were sent with their master to Wakanda to kidnap the Black Panther and Beast of the X-Men as part of a plot to capture the eight most intelligent men on Earth. Their kidnapping was interrupted by the Red Hulk who slew Miklho. Furious, the Red Ghost used his powers to knock out the Hulk and escape with his prisoners. When Intelligentia's plans eventually failed, the Red Ghost fled to St. Petersburg, Russia. There he found a new baby gorilla named Grigori and endowed it with enhanced strength. He and his apes were soon captured by the Sensational and Savage She-Hulks. They tried to escape capture over Nevada airspace and when this failed, Red Ghost tried to crash the ship but they were stopped by the Hulk and incarcerated.; ===Recent Events===; Broken out of prison, the Red Ghost and his Super-Apes reconnected with Intelligentia and began working on a new Zero Cannon which used Peotor's magnetic abilities to power it. They were quickly defeated in battle against Dr. Octopus and his Sinister Six. When the Red Ghost began working with disposed Latverian Prime Minister Lucia von Bardas he provided a number of intelligent apes with combat training to assist in their mission to destroy Latveria. These apes were easily bested by the Winter Soldier and the Black Widow who foiled Lucia's plot. The Red Ghost's regular Super-Apes and the rest of Intelligencia were almost drowned later when they were attacked by the mercenary Deadpool.; Most recently the Super-Apes accompanied their master to the moon on another attempt to steal the Watcher's equipment. Passing through the same chronal spike the Super-Apes were separated from their master. Wandering along the surface they encountered past and future versions of themselves. The apes were then attracted to bananas being produced by the Future Foundation's wards -- Bentley-23, Adolf Impossible, Leech, Artie Maddicks, Onome, Vil, Wu, Mik, Korr, Turg, and Tong -- who made fast friends with the apes. When various Red Ghost's from different points in history appeared before them, the children attacked them and drove them away.; ===Taken out by Steve Rogers===; The Super-Apes as well as the Red Ghost were later killed by Steve Rogers so he could take over their hideout and use it to hide Erik Selvig from the Red Skull.; ===Resurfacing===; The Super-Apes were returned to life through unknown means and joined Ziggy Pig's Masters of Animal Evil where they were sent to fight the Pet Avengers but the Masters were defeated.; Miklho, Peoter, and Igor turned up alive where they attacked the Central Park Zoo alongside a new Super-Ape named Yaroslav the chimpanzee, who claimed that the Super-Apes are now free from Red Ghost. The Thunderbolts were sent to deal with the Super-Apes and had a hard time taking them down. Only when the NYPD used knock-out gas were the Super-Apes defeated.; Kragoff went into hiding at Kingsport where his presence awakened the vengeful ghosts of his early test subjects, causing them to terrorize the town while hunting after him. The AVENG.E.R.S. convinced the ghosts to leave Kragoff alive and Hercules helped them move on to the afterlife.

In order to avert a military confrontation, S.H.E. brokered a deal between the Atlantean delegations led by Ambassador Govan would hold a conference on the Lower East Side Wharf in order to air their grievances in a public forum in accordance with Atlantean custom.; Wales' new Red Dragon was authorized by the State Department to act as a mediator while the Belgian Brain was slated to serve as translator for the event; however, as soon as the conference started, Norman Osborn emerged from the crowd and shot Ambassador Govan, causing him to retreat into the waters with his Atlantean delegation. Norman was quickly subdued by Gunnar and placed in police custody.

+History:
+In 1885, the American, Canadian, Russian and Japanese governments and various private businessmen all began vying to locate and control a mountain filled with above-ground crude oil in Alaska, so much easily accessible oil that whoever held it could easily dominate the world economy for good. French Canadian trapper and spy Marcel Fournier participated in this quest as an agent for the Canadian government, and was nearly hanged for killing rival agents in self-defense, but the Two-Gun Kid rescued him, faking Matt Hawk's death in the process. The fugitive duo soon joined forces with young half-Mexican Apache warrior Running Fish, sole survivor of a tribe slaughtered by the U.S. Cavalry in pursuit of Two-Gun and Fournier; and Japanese samurai Hijiro Nguri, an expert swordsman who had turned against his clan since he regarded Japan's participation in the bloody oil conspiracy as dishonorable. Together, aided by the Two-Gun Kid's collection of weapons from the future, the unlikely quartet eluded their various pursuers, located the oil mountain and blew it up, foiling the conspiracy. Seemingly killed, the quartet actually survived the blast and remained together for a time as the Sunset Riders.; The quartet soon drifted apart, however, as Running Fish returned to the Apache people under the name Geronimo, Hijiro Nguri dropped out of sight in San Francisco, and the Two-Gun Kid retired from adventuring for a time to practice law as "Clay Harder."

+History:
+The Super-Soldiers were initially the test subjects of a super-soldier program created by a group of doctors. They were given genetically-altered organs which would control their mood and increase their fighting abilities, by producing the same drugs which the veteran super-soldier Nuke used. The team of soldiers was originally subordinate only to the British cabinet, and their orders were gived directly by the British prime minister. They were sent on a mission to the borders between Thailand and Cambodia. The team fell apart when the team member Lee Childs (who had already commited war crimes in the past) went berserk. He killed three of his teammates and seriously injured two others. The British super-soldier program was soon cancelled, and the wounded Joseph Hauer was placed in suspended animation. Sir Marcus Grantby-Fox chose Child as his personal bodyguard. Sir Marcus recruited several of the surviving test subjects for his new mercenary team, the Super Squadies.; Hauer awoke from suspended animation, and escaped on his own. There were certain gaps in his memory. He tried to find answers about his past by allying himself with the investigative journalist Sarah Wilde, and by questioning Jahved Khan (one of the people who designed the super-soldier program). Traveling back to the borders between Thailand and Cambodia, Hauer located his former teammate Alec Dalton. Dalton had been hiding there since he was injured in their failed mission. Sir Marcus send both the Super Squadies and U.S.Agent after the rogue super-soldiers. Hauer was able to convert both the U.S. Agent and Gog into allies for his cause. They orchestrated an attack on Sir Marcus' company Empire Chemical Enterprises (ECE).; Dalton, Hauer, and Gog offered their services to the British government again, with Sarah Wilde serving as an advisor to their new version of the team. The team was recruited by SHIELD to arrest Warlord and to disrupt Hydra's operations in the Savage Land. Someone was leaking information which made Hydra vulnerable to attacks. The team was unaware that their informants were actually the Mandarin and Shibobi Shaw, who had personal reasons to undermine Hydra. During this mission, Dragonfly, Guvnor, and Xantia joined the team as new members.; The Super-Soldiers took part in an uneventful peacekeeping mission for the United Nations. When they returned to their headquarters, they learned that the British cabinet had severed their funding and privatized the team without their consent. The team was now owned by the Mercy Corporation, which was only interested in the team's superhuman members. Sarah, Dragonfly, and Xantia were fired, because they were not superhumans. The remaining team members were relocated to one of Mercy's facilities in Alaska, to be tested for suitability as members of Mercy's private army.

Bridge, manipulating him into approving the formation of a new team of Super Agents—a roster that included Knock-About, Psi-Borg, and Violence. However, what S.H.I.E.L.D. failed to realize was that all three operatives were, in fact, double agents working for Hydra.; In time, their ranks expanded to include Ivory, a Wakandan superhuman who initially believed she was joining a legitimate S.H.I.E.L.D. initiative. However, when she uncovered the true allegiances of her teammates, they turned on her and killed her before she could expose them. The team’s downfall came when Psi-Borg engaged in a psychic duel with the telepathic agent Network Nina, which resulted in Psi-Borg’s death on the astral plane. With their deception exposed, Nick Fury personally oversaw the capture of Knockabout and Violence, ensuring their imprisonment and dismantling the corrupt initiative before it could do further damage.

+History:
+<!--; ===Titannus===; ...; -->; ===Kl'rt the first Super-Skrull===; The Skrull warrior (and future emperor) Kl'rt the Super-Skrull was the first Super-Skrull, the original and greatest of all the Super-Skrulls. He was given technological enhancements to simulate the powers of the Fantastic Four. Kl'rt was sent to conquer Earth and ended up being more than a match for the Fantastic Four but ultimately failed in his mission.; In the aftermath of the Kree-Skrull War, several of Earth's greatest super heroes who recently formed the Illuminati went to the Skrull throneworld to warn the Skrulls to stay away from Earth. The heroes were captured and confined by the Skrulls who tortured them, downloaded from their brains all their knowledge, and took their DNA samples.; Under Emperor Dorrek VII's decision, Dro'ge, royal head priest of the sciences began working on modifying the Super-Skrull process to creature to create warriors with multiple powers.; Paibok adapted his own Power-Skrull powerset and thus also helped revive the Super-Skrull initiative.; The Chief Scientist Granok in his attempt to recreate the lost gene of the Warskrulls experimented on Skrull Mutants, and used the gained knowledge to create a comprehensive personality matrix which allowed infiltrators to survive even genetic testing and telepathic examination. The Head Priest of the Sciences, Dro'ge would use Granok's research to perfect the Super-Skrull program. He discovered how to manipulate the DNA samples they took from the Illuminati to create improved Super-Skrulls. Using science and magic they created Super-Skrulls that were imbued with the memories and powers of the subjects and could not be detected by technology, magic, telepathy, or various superhuman senses.; ===Secret Invasion===; During the invasion of Earth, the Skrulls deployed thousands of Super-Skrulls which did battle with Earth's defenders in orbit, the Moon and various locations across Earth (e.g. New York City, the Savage Land, Israel, Wakanda, and San Francisco). The greatest concentration of Super-Skrulls were in New York City in which a ground assault force of thousands of Super-Skrulls were used. The Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. Facility was attacked by over a hundred Super-Skrulls and in Camp Hammond were dozens of Super-Skrulls who had infiltrated the Initiative program. In the final battle in New York, the Super-Skrulls deployed hundreds of Super-Skrulls.; Despite the losses suffered at Earth, the Super-Skrull program continues to be active under the rule of Kl'rt the original Super-Skrull. Various Super-Skrull training centers exist in the empire.; Super-Skrulls have also been assigned to Skrull worlds as enforcers or protectors.; ==Known Super-Skrulls==; ===Named Super-Skulls===; Kl'rt (Earth-616) from Annihilation Super-Skrull Vol 1 1 0001.jpg|link= Kl'rt (Earth-616)|Kl'rt;

+History:
+===Origin===; The Sublime bacterium helped create The World, a facility originally based in Britain that warped time to grow and develop an entire civilization solely for the production of Super-Soldiers. The result was to be a team called the "Super-Sentinels", products of a "mating" between their human "Mother" and a machine. This team was intended to be a publicity stunt that would commercialize the genocide of mutants as part of a reality show. This was supposed to make it more palatable to the public.; ===Weapons===; Weapon Plus created Weapon XII, Huntsman, the first living weapon created (he was accidentally unleashed on the Channel Tunnel and fought X-Corporation, being eventually eliminated by Fantomex); Weapon XIII, Fantomex (he was created at the facility, but rebelled and escaped); and Weapon XV, Ultimaton, their "ultimate" creation (he was designed to be the Super-Sentinels' grand powerhouse).; ===Fantomex Clones===; After Fantomex was killed, E.V.A. deposited his body in a cloning sample hatch in the White Sky facility known as the Cloud. All three of his brains were intact, and the machine mistakenly cloned a new body for each brain. One of them was a female version of Fantomex named Cluster. The other was Dark Fantomex, the cruellest of the three.; }

+Founded by D-Man, Super Trans was originally a support group for young, trans mutants based out of the Matt Baker House in the Ridgewood neighborhood of Queens. During one of their earliest meetings, the Matt Baker House was invaded by the Sinister Syndicate while battling Spider-Man. Using their powers, the members of Super Trans were able to rescue an unconscious Spider-Man and an overwhelmed D-Man.; Eventually, the group was disbanded due to anti-mutant sentiment, but its members remained friends. When they first reunited, they were attacked by Sentin-Ally, a straight "ally" trying to be recruited to the team. After defeating Sentin-Ally, Pity Girl identified their team as the "X-Men" in a viral video. Calling themselves the X-Men brought them to the attention of both the Quiet Council of Krakoa and Mojo. After decades of artificially slowed time and thousands of recorded episodes, the team was able to escape with help from Mojo Junior and the X-Men.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Time-displaced super-powered individuals brought to the present by Kristoff Vernard
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Prison 42, Negative Zone
+Transportation: Quinjet: The Superior Avengers used a Latverian version of the Avengers' Quinjet to travel the world.
+History:
+The Superior Avengers began as an idea by Kristoff Vernard called the "Avengers Initiative", which consisted of using the Time Platform to scan for future timelines where Doctor Doom's absolute rule over the world had been prosperous and recruiting superhumans from those futures to prove to the public that Doom could be a benevolent philanthropist. Following some failed attempts, Vernard ended up recruiting a group of heroes from more than a century into the future, consisting of the brutal Killmonger, the elusive Doctor Octopus, the lethal Malekith, the macabre Onslaught, the loyal Abomination, and the cryptic Ghost. The team of Avengers were introduced to the public as efficient replacements for the traditional heroes and symbolized the reformation of villainous mantles by exhibiting their might when defeating Annihilus and his Annihilation Wave.; In fact, the group of Avengers was formed by traitorous acolytes of Doctor Doom, who in their timeline had betrayed and executed the ruler they considered to be a tyrant. They secretly hid in Prison 42 deep in the Negative Zone and out of Doom's influence, where they built the Arcane Warhead, a powerful device fueled by magical energy. During a mission to defeat the criminal fugitive Diablo, the Avengers siphoned his mystic power to energize their device. In order to fool Vernard, Doctor Octopus created mechanical replicas of the members of the Avengers to interact with him while they were away, while Killmonger managed to seduce him. The Superior Avengers' ultimate plan was to use the Arcane Warhead to obliterate their own version of Annihilus, who had risen to power following Doctor Doom's demise.; During one of their missions to capture another fugitive, Graviton, the Superior Avengers clashed with their predecessors, the original Avengers. Despite sharing a common goal, the two groups immediately engaged in a battle against each other due to their deeply different approaches. The Ghost was mortally wounded in battle by the Vision, revealing she was, unbeknownst to all, one of Doctor Octopus' drones. This prompted the Superior Avengers to abandon their mission and promptly seek out the Ghost to find answers and stop a possible betrayer. Cunningly, the Ghost exposed the true nature of the Superior Avengers to Kristoff Vernard, claiming she believed Doctor Doom could help with destroying Annihilus in the future.

+History:
+The Symbol of Doom was not one man, but one of many agents of Imperial Japan during World War II. Organized near the end of 1943, they were all seemingly identical men who would appear in locations that were vital to American defense crying doom to the United States before blowing themselves up and their intended target. The various successful attacks put the American people in a state of panic as authorities were unable to explain how the seemingly same man was able to blow himself up and reappear elsewhere to do the same thing again.; When one of the agents blew up a rain bridge after stopping a train full of American soldiers heading for the west coast, the entire crew was killed except for Steve Rogers and James Buchanan Barnes, who then began investigating the Symbol of Doom as Captain America and Bucky. They followed Japanese agents to the Symbols' secret hideout located in an abandoned copper mine. There they walked into a trap and were captured and subsequently taken prisoner. They then met the remaining Symbol of Doom agents who explained their plot and then took the two heroes aboard their plane as they air dropped their agents across the country.; Captain America and Bucky then broke free from their bonds and set off one of the Symbol's explosives before parachuting out of the plane. The resulting explosion killed the remaining operatives.

+History:
+After Blackheart (under the human guise of Mr. Degli) purchased a vial of her blood, X-23 tracked him down to the Devil's Den casino, where she found four clones of hers in a tank. She was planting C4 bombs to destroy them when they abruptly broke the glass, ready to attack her. Seeing the clones bonded to Symbiotes made their purpose as living weapons clear to X-23, leaving her with no choice but to kill them. X-23 managed to kill one of them while the other three went on to protect Blackheart, as they were created to do. When X-23 tried to get to Blackheart, he ordered the three remaining Symbiote Warriors to kill her, but she killed them first.

+History:
+===Ambition===; Dr. Octopus, now Spider-Man, never liked the idea of working with the Avengers, thus sought to have a team of his own, a superior team.; ===Formation===; The first member to "join" was Flint Marko, a.k.a. William Baker, a.k.a. Sandman, after he was defeated by Peter Parker during Doc Ock's plan to destroy the Earth. Sandman's "soul sand grain" was extracted and locked away in the Baxter Building. Otto managed to obtain this grain and put it in his secret lab.; The second member was Maxwell Dillon, a.k.a. Electro, who after being hurled into space by Thor, returned to Earth for revenge, however, Thor and Spider-Man were able to stop and defeat him. Electro was locked away in Otto's underwater lab.; The third member was Dmitri Smerdyakov, a.k.a. Chameleon, who after his involvement in Doc Ock's plan to destroy Earth, was taken into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. Otto needed him for his team, so he broke him out of a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, and imprisoned him in his underwater lab instead.; The fourth member was Mysterion, new in the world of supervillains. Otto caught Mysterion while robbing a bank, at first mistaking him for Quentin Beck, the original Mysterio, who betrayed him in his scheme to destroy Earth. But after seeing his face, he realized it wasn't him, yet Otto imprisoned Mysterion alongside the others.; The fifth and last member was Adrian Toomes, a.k.a. The Vulture. After Otto's first encounter with Toomes as Spider-Man, Vulture sought revenge with other victims of Spider-Man's newfound brutality. But he was yet again defeated, and taken by Otto to be locked up amongst the other four villains in his secret underwater lab.; ===Vs. Lightmaster===; Dr. Edward Lansky, a.k.a. the Lightmaster, set his eyes on Alchemax, and their newest invention; a device which could work in sync with his own light-based powers. Lightmaster hired the Wrecking Crew to steal it, however, Spider-Man thwarted them with his new-found team; The Superior Six. Spider-Man lost his mind control over the Superior Six members (due to Sun Girl's wide-spread attack) during a battle against the Masters of Evil, and they attacked him for controlling them.

+Equipment: Cloaking Devices
+History:
+===First Totem War===; After the Superior Spider-Man was time-displaced to 2099, he built a time machine and attempted to return home. Unfortunately, changes in the surrounding vibrational frequencies caused him to repeatedly end up in alternate timelines. Curiously, each time he found a deceased Peter Parker with similar deaths.; Realizing someone was hunting spiders across the Multiverse, he decided to recruit other spiders to kill him.; The spiders came up with a plan: ambush Karn, take his energy away from him, them kill him. They ambushed Karn during his attack on a cyborg Spider-Man, they saw this plan come to light. Unfortunately, Karn had taken in to much life force to take away and the plan failed. They decided to still try to defeat him, but two of his siblings joined the fight. Retreating, they now realized they weren't fighting one man; they were fighting a family!; It seems that Otto would be able to block their Web of Destiny signal from the Inheritors using a Cloaking Device and Otto sent his "agents" to recruit more spiders.; Later, the team were confronted by a larger team of Spider-Totems hoping to recruit them into their ranks. It didn't go well due to Otto's demeanor. To make matters worse, Scarlet Spider and Silk couldn't be masked by Otto's cloaking device. As a result, Daemos found them.; Despite the loss of Spider-Cyborg, the combined teams killed Daemos. During a heated argument by Otto and Old Man Spider, Daemos reappeared accompanied by his siblings, Brix and Bora. The teams, outmatched, retreated to Earth-13, where Otto attempted to bring the two teams under his command. However, this effort was opposed by Spider-Man, who stated firmly that he was in charge, defeating Otto in a fight by exploiting Otto's belief that he was a past version of Otto's body rather than a future Peter to reinforce how killing the Inheritors couldn't work given their ability to come back. With this demonstration of the flaws in Otto's strategy, his army was incorporated into the other group rather than Otto taking control himself, although Peter acknowledged the value of Otto's intelligence even if he disregarded his intentions.; ===Second Totem War===; When the Inheritors arrived in the Prime Marvel Universe, the Superior Octopus assembled a new Superior Spider-Army with the aim to kill the Inheritors, reclaiming his alias as the Superior Spider-Man. After gaining enough Spiders, Spider-Nor-Man and Superior Spider-Man would come to a disagreement, promoting Norman to destroy the Web of Life and Destiny after he left the group.; The Inheritors had a plan to use the Jackal's technology to resurrect Solus, who was killed by the Other during the first war. Otto knew they would need Ben Reilly's knowledge, since he was recently the Jackal, and considering his mental instability for the many times he was killed and resurrected by the Original Jackal, he knew consuming him would make the insane. Ben Reilly agreed to his plan, as Otto agreed to resurrect him.; Jennix was the ultimate proof this plan worked, as he was the one to consume him. Peter Parker from Earth-1048 arrived at the scene to contest Otto about this, but they were quickly overpowered by the Inheritors as soon as they realized their plan. However, an Enigma Force powered Miles Morales arrived with both Spider-Armies. Earth-616's Peter Parker told them to follow Otto's plan, only for the part to kill Solus. They quickly overpowered the Inheritors after Miles killed him with the Swordvigor and then turned the Inheritors into babies. After the war was ultimately over, both armies dissolved.

+Created by: John Byrne; Ron Wilson
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Battleworld
+Transportation: The Takers rode on massive dragon-like ceatures.
+History:
+Like every creature found on the Beyonder's Battleworld following the events of the first Secret Wars, the Takers were the product of the subconscious mind of the Fantastic Four's Thing, the Thing had decided to remain on Battleworld after discovering he could change back and forth between human and Thing forms. Each of these creations were based off some aspect of Ben's memories or personality, with entirely fabricated backgrounds and origins.; The Takers were a race of green skinned creatures who made their living robbing valuable objects while riding on the backs of massive flying creatures. They then took their stolen wares to the top of a massive smooth obelisk. This obelisk then transported those who reached its top to another part of Battleworld where the Taker's home was located. Those who they stole from built a city around the obelisk in the hopes of one day discovering a means of climbing it and recovering their stolen property.; Ben Grimm encountered the Takers when one of their number stole the device that would allow him to return to Earth whenever he was ready to go home. He followed the thief to the city that was constructed below the obelisk. There he got the assistance of a young alien named Llrrllllnnllyyrrl who claimed that she was seeking to recover her stolen dowry from the Takers. Having captured one of their flying beasts, Llrrllllnnllyyrrl turned it over to Ben to ride up to the top of the obelisk. Transported to the Taker's hideout, Ben turned into the Thing and forced his way into their base. Realizing that they had stolen an object belonging to a great and noble warrior, the Takers returned the device to the Thing and quickly became his loyal worshipers. Before leaving, the Thing demanded that the Takers locate Llrrllllnnllyyrrl's dowry and return it to her.; Forgetting what Llrrllllnnllyyrrl's dowry was, the Takers brought back what they thought was the stolen property, a gem encrusted piece of gold, only to be told that it wasn't correct. The second item they brought to Llrrllllnnllyyrrl was a Tantorian P-Z Lanta, a powerful weapon that had the curious ability to teleport itself to wherever the holder wished it. Thinking that it was the only gun that could stop her friend the Thing, Llrrllllnnllyyrrl accidentally caused it to temporarily end up in the hands of Gruhl, a creature that bore a grudge against the Thing. They continued on with little to nor success. At one point the Takers and Llrrllllnnllyyrrl were interrupted by one of the priestesses of Maub who were seeking for their missing child Juneyar. They continued their appointed task, still failing to find that which Llrrllllnnllyyrrl sought. Finally they located Llrrllllnnllyyrrl's "dowry" which turned out to be the head of Ultron, which was trapped on Battleworld since the end of the Secret Wars. Llrrllllnnllyyrrl then had her people rebuild Ultron's body. The Thing later defeated Ultron, and opted to leave Battleworld. Upon that moment, the Takers ceased to exist and Battleworld exploded into nothingness.

+History:
+When the forces of Arakko, led by the First Horsemen of Apocalypse, entered Otherworld they ravaged Dryador. Using the External Gate, Apocalypse led a group of mutants to Otherworld where they were almost immediately ambushed by First Horsemen of Apocalypse and Summoner. To end the fighting, Omniversal Majestrix Opal Luna Saturnyne offered the Horsemen and the X-Men the opportunity to enter a tournament of champions. With no alternatives, both sides accepted the offer and Saturnyne magically implanted the tournament weapons and champions into the minds of Polaris and Pestilence.; After returning to Krakoa and discovering that Rockslide's death in Otherworld was permanent, Polaris constructed a casting circle in the Voltus Glade to transport the Swordbearers of Krakoa to the tournament.; With only three days prepare for battle, the chosen swordbearers set out to gather their swords. Wolverine had to travel to Hell and enlist the aid of Solem to obtain the Muramasa Blade. Storm travelled to Wakanda, where she stole the Skybreaker after being told she would not be able to use it. Already armed with their swords, Magik used her Soulsword to train Cypher and Warlock. Cable was also called back to Krakoa from The Peak with The Light of Galador. Knowing of the prophecy, Brian Braddock unearthed the Sword of Might from its burial spot beneath the Braddock Lighthouse, and after deceiving Saturyne, Betsy Braddock obtain the Starlight Sword. Together, Betsy as Captain Britain and Brian as Captain Avalon join the other swordbearers armed with the Starlight Sword and Sword of Might respectively. Despite their apparent destruction, Gorgon was able to regain both Grasscutter and Godkiller. Finally, after recovering from injuries, Apocalypse went to the Temple of the Horsemen, where he retrieved and resembled the Scarab.; With their swords gathered and their champions assembled, the swordbearers of Krakoa travelled to Otherworld. While they fought valiantly in a series of contests, they soon began to fall behind in the scores as the Swordbearers of Arakko gained the upper hand. Ahead of the penultimate challenge; a duel between Gorgon and the White Sword the Arakkii side led with a score of 18-6. Declaring that Gorgon would need to face his soldiers first, the White Sword sent out waves of them to face Gorgon. Gorgon managed to kill 13 of them, whereupon Saturnyne declared that Krakoa had receieved a point for each soldier slain, giving them a one-point lead. White Sword finished a grievously wounded Gorgon off, tying the score at 19-19.; The final challenge was to be between Apocalypse and his erstwhile wife Genesis, possessed by the dark elder god of Amenth; Annihilation. Apocalypse gained the upper hand in the duel, but refused to kill his wife, prompting Annihilation to seize control of her and summon its horde of demons. Apocalypse and the other Krakoan swordbearers retreated and prepared to face the might of Amenth and the remaining Arakkii swordbearers. The ensuing battle seemed doomed, but the swordbearers were reinforced by the newly reforged Captain Britain Corps, the X-Men and the Vescora, allowing them to stand against the Amenthi hordes. Apocalypse found Annihilation on the battlefield and disarmed it, ripping the Golden Helm from his wife and donning it himself. He merged with Annihilation but managed to control it and ceded the tournament on its behalf, granting Krakoa the victory.

Using the External Gate, Apocalypse led a group of mutants to Otherworld where they were almost immediately ambushed by the Horsemen and betrayed by Summoner. To end the fighting, Omniversal Majestrix Opal Luna Saturnyne offered the Horsemen and the X-Men the opportunity to settle their disputes in a tournament of champions. With no alternatives, both sides accepted the offer and Saturnyne magically implanted the tournament weapons and champions into the minds of Polaris and Pestilence.; Summoner, Annihilation and War were among the chosen and already possessed their swords. With only three days prepare for battle, Annihilation commanded the Horsemen and Summoner to set about recruiting the other swordbearers and retrieving their swords. Summoner recruited Redroot by promising the tournament would end with the re-unification of Arakko and Krakoa, and recruited Bei the Bloodmoon with the promise of battle. War and Pestilence travelled to The Tower of Broken Will to release Solem, the slayer of War's husband. After being freed, Solem travelled to Hell and enlisted the aid of Wolverine to obtain the Muramasa Blade. They also bought the services of the mercenary Pogg Ur-Pogg and recruited their aunt Isca the Unbeaten. Death and Famine recruited the White Sword with the promise to grant him any request of his choosing upon their victory, and retrieved Death's sword; the Black Bone of Amduat from an Amenthi temple. With their champions recruited and their weapons gathered, the swordbearers travelled to Otherworld to partake in the tournament.; The Swordbearers of Arakko quickly managed to gain the upper hand against their Krakoan foes. Despite losing three of their champions; Death, Summoner and Redroot during the course of the tournament, they took a commanding lead with the score at 18-6 ahead of the penultimate challenge; a duel between the White Sword and the Krakoan champion Gorgon. The White Sword chose to summon his soldiers to face Gorgon before personally taking him on. Gorgon managed to slay 13 of the White Sword's champions when Saturnyne announced that Krakoa had receieved a point for each slain champion, giving them a one-point lead. Only when War begged him to end it, did the White Sword personally kill Gorgon, evening the score.; The final challenge was to be a duel between the Annihilation-controlled Genesis and her erstwhile husband Apocalypse. When Apocalypse gained the upper hand, Annihilation seized control of its host and summoned the armies of Amenth. As chaos ensued, the swordbearers of Arakko were split on what to do. White Sword chose to depart the battlefield, stating that he had come for a fight not a battle, and had won it. Bei, who had been wed to Krakoan swordbearer Cypher during one of the challenges chose to defect to her husband's side. The rest of the swordbearers, lead by Isca pursued the Krakoans and participated in the ensuing battle.; While the Arakkii and Amenthian forces seemed to have the upper hand, the intervention of the newly reformed Captain Britain Corps, the X-Men and the Vescora began to turn the tide in favor of the Krakoans. The battle was ended when Apocalypse managed to defeat Annihilation, seize control of it, and cede the tournament on its behalf, ending the conflict.

+Transportation: Each of the members of the Swift Tide had a personalized mount. The Unforgotten Stone merged each of them with their mounts - replacing Kharsa's legs with sharklike fins, Sycorax's lower body with tentacles, Sweet Mercy's limbs with blades, and Garanna's lower body with that of her ray.
+History:
+Originally known as the Swift Tide, the Black Tide was a team of Atlantean warrior women who had fought to overcome the sexism of Atlantean society and attained celebrity status across the undersea world for their skill and combat prowess. With members from Imperial Atlantis, the Chasm People, and other undersea civilizations, the Swift Tide embodied hope of cooperation and peaceful relations between the rival groups, and defended all of the sea peoples that lived in peace.; In the 1930s, the Swift Tide discovered the location of the evil relic known as the Unforgotten Stone, a stone prison containing the evil power, if not the very souls, of the Great Old Ones, and brought word of it to a diplomatic meeting between the Chasm People and Atlantis, helping fend off an assassination attempt on the political leaders and government officials by Chasm People rebels. King Attukar of the Chasm People and Warlord Krang of the Atlantean Empire decided to send the Swift Tide on a mission to retrieve and dispose of the Unforgotten Stone before it could be discovered by humans; and assigned Prince Namor of the Atlantean Empire and Prince Attuma of the Chasm People to accompany them hoping to encourage a friendship between the two princes and thereby ease political tensions between their peoples.; The expedition uncovered that the Unforgotten Stone had been stolen by Soviet scientists and the Thule Society, who unwittingly activated it. Engulfed by its eldritch power, the Swift Tide were corrupted and fused with their mounts to become predatory monsters. Renaming themselves the Black Tide, they slaughtered the Chasm People present at the the diplomatic meeting - including King Attukar - and rampaged until they were subdued and exiled to the depths of the Mariana Trench, where they lay dormant for decades, removed from the Atlanteans' memories and hearts.; Years later, Namor sought to recruit them to fend off Knull's invasion of Earth, and freed them. As Namor had feared, following Knull's defeat, the Black Tide refused to return to exile and disappeared, leading to Namor's Defenders of the Deep hunting them down.

+Full name: Technet
+Other aliases: N-Men
+First appearance: Captain Britain Vol 2 3
+Created by: Jamie Delano; Alan Davis
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Multidimensional Mercenary Team
+Reality: Multiverse
+Base of operations: Formerly:; Brighton Pier, Brighton, United Kingdom
+History:
+Technet was a team of bounty hunters from various extradimensional worlds. For a price, Technet would hunt and capture fugitives, rescue prisoners from captivity, or recover objects of value. The scope of Technet extended across multiple worlds and dimensions.; The first known appearance of Technet occurred when they were hired by Sat-Yr-9 to find the fugitive Byron Bra-Dhok, better known as Kaptain Briton, the Captain Britain counterpart of Sat-Yr-9's Earth. Kaptain Briton fled to the Earth-616, fought with his counterpart and exchanged uniforms with him, hoping to confuse Technet. Technet mistakenly took Brian prisoner and brought him to Sat-Yr-9's Earth. Captain Britain managed to convince Technet that they had the wrong target, so they joined Braddock in fighting Sat-Yr-9's troops. After returning to his own Earth, Braddock discovered that his sister Psylocke had killed Kaptain Briton after he had attacked her.; Later, Technet traveled on business to the Wereworld, whose natives become Werewolves under a full moon, having been exiled from their home by Sat-Yr-9. There, Technet member Elmo was fatally wounded by werewolves. Subsequently, Gatecrasher either seriously injured or killed a member of the Berserker Pirates who attempted to interest her in becoming his lover. The pirate's family forced Technet to turn over all their accumulated wealth as reparations. Angered by this reversal in their fortunes, all of the members of Technet except for Yap and Fascination left the team.; Shortly thereafter, Gatecrasher went to a celebration held by the despot of Kandahar. A person she believed to be the despot himself hired her to procure a perfect mathematical model of the universe that was made of rock crystal and that was held and revered by the Incas of 14th century Peru on Earth-616. Gatecrasher, Yap, and Fascination journeyed through time to obtain the model, but Gatecrasher and Yap were tricked by the person they believed to be a native high priest into consuming fruit filled with the eggs of deadly parasites. Gatecrasher and Yap were thus forced to remain under a cooling waterfall to prevent the eggs inside them from hatching and consuming their bodies from within. In actuality, an alien had impersonated both the despot of Kandahar and the high priest, and hoped to force Fascination into his employ through this convoluted plot. This alien had already succeeded in hiring the members of Technet who had just left the group. His team was the Special Executive, a future version of Technet. The team's precognitive, Cobweb, told him that Fascination wouldn't join the Special Executive for another 300 years.; Fascination brought Captain Britain and his companion Meggan to 14th century Peru to rescue Gatecrasher. Captain Britain gathered together the plants necessary to create the antidote that would kill the parasite eggs. Gatecrasher and Yap consumed the antidote, and then they, Fascination, Captain Britain, and Meggan returned to their own time period.; Gatecrasher recruited Numbers and Waxworks into Technet, and all of the surviving former members rejoined. At some point during this period, Fascination changed her name to Scatterbrain.; Opal Luna Saturnyne hired Technet to capture Rachel Summers, alias Phoenix, whom Saturnyne claimed was a threat to the universe. At this time, Rachel was on the run from Mojo, who had enslaved her to star in his movies. Mojo sent his servants, the Warwolves, after Rachel. The Warwolves and the Technet fought over Rachel and during the fight, Ferro was killed. Rachel was saved by Captain Britain, Meggan, and her fellow X-Men Nightcrawler and Shadowcat. Initially, Technet held the advantage over the five heroes, using their powers to quickly subdue four of them: Ringtoss ensnared Rachel with her rings while Joyboy, upon discovering Kitty's desire to be solid again, defeated Kitty by not only making her solid, but also having her balloon massively in weight, causing her to go from skinny to plump and then to enormously fat in seconds. Meanwhile, Meggan was subdued by Waxworks and Brian, though he defeated Thug, was then quickly defeated by Scatterbrain.; Despite this initial setback, together the five heroes fought off Technet after breaking free. This battle against Technet led directly to the formation of the original Excalibur by Summers and her allies.; It was later revealed that Saturnyne had hired Technet under orders of Roma, who needed to form the superhero team to save the multiverse. Later, several members of the Special Executive including Wardog, Cobweb, and Zeitgeist appeared and recruited many of Technet again, but Technet have since been active once more. Their precise chronology remains unclear.; Technet split up and reformed again, apprehending Rocket Raccoon.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Trivia: The Thanosi were introduced by Jim Starlin in Infinity Abyss Vol 1 in order to retcon the appearances of Thanos in Ka-Zar Vol 4, Thor Vol 2, X-Man/Incredible Hulk Annual Vol 1 1998 and Avengers: Celestial Quest Vol 1.; In She-Hulk Vol 2 12, it was implied that the Thanos defeated by Squirrel Girl in GLX-Mas Special Vol 1 1 was actually one of the Thanosi, despite Uatu having verified that he was not. On trial and under oath, Thanos claimed that he had perfected his clones to the point that they were so indistinguishable from him that not even cosmic beings could tell the difference. However, this Thanos was himself a clone with modified memories - leaving whether or not Squirrel Girl defeated the real Thanos somewhat ambiguous.
+History:
+Modified clones created by Thanos to determine the strength of possible foes or the reliability of potential allies. He used cloning, sorcery, and technology for these Thanosi.; After tests involving Ka-Zar, Thor, and the Avengers proved the clones a failure due to them exhibiting nihilistic and destructive behaviors, Thanos scheduled them for recycling; however, a secret player blasted a hole in the roof of one of his hideouts' subterranean section, and consequently activated five of the replicants: Armour, Mystic, Omega, Warrior, and X.; These Thanosi then banded together to bring about the end of the universe and believed that they could do this by capturing Adam Warlock so he could direct them to the cosmic being Atlez, the Anchor of Reality, and his successor Atleza. By killing Atlez and his successor, the universe would come to end (this was actually a scheme created by Atlez to aid Adam in finding his successor Atleza).; X impersonated Thanos using a telepathic illusion and directed Pip the Troll to kidnap Adam Warlock as he was recovering from insanity on an alien planet.; X required information from Warlock, who previously made contact with Atlez. Gamora located the real Thanos, and with the aid of Warlock, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, Captain Marvel, and Moondragon, killed four of the the Thanosi.; However, the final clone, Omega, had gone to Earth to kill Atlez's successor Atleza and destroy the Earth. Omega was prevented from doing so after being teleported with the heroes to a barren planet where they battled. Thanos transported the heroes back to Earth and had a fleet of alien mercenaries destroy the planet, killing Omega. This allowed Atleza to take Atlez's place as the Anchor of Reality and thus sparing the universe from destruction.

+Full name: Terrible Trio
+First appearance: Fantastic Four Vol 1 23
+Created by: Stan Lee; Jack Kirby
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Latveria
+History:
+===Origins===; The Terrible Trio was created by the Latverian monarch Dr. Doom as a means to destroy his long-time foes, the Fantastic Four, by creating a team of super-powered foes that could counteract the famous heroes powers. He then recruited three career criminals: protection racketeer Bull Brogin, con man "Handsome" Harry Phillips, and the former circus fire act turned petty thief Yogi Dakor. When the trio agreed to join Doom he endowed them with super-human abilities using the XZ-12 Device. Phillips hearing was enhanced so that he could detect the Invisible Girl while she was using her power; Bull was given strength to rival that of the Thing; and Dakor was made completely fireproof in order to handle the Human Torch. The Terrible Trio then went after the Fantastic Four during a period which they were disputing the leadership of Mister Fantastic.; Yogi Dakor captured the Torch in a flame proof car, while Bull defeated the Thing on Yancy Street by briefly reverting the Thing back to human form, and Phillips captured the Invisible Girl during a phony flower delivery. Meanwhile, Dr. Doom managed to capture Mr. Fantastic with the aid of a robot constructed to resemble the Thing. Doom paid the Terrible Trio five thousand dollars each and then told them to wait for his next call. However this never came to pass after Dr. Doom attempted to dispatch the Fantastic Four into space by taking advantage of a "Solar Wave" but ended up falling for his own trap while the Fantastic Four managed to escape.; ===Vendetta===; Knowing that Dr. Doom would eventually return, the Terrible Trio decided to curry favor with the man who gave them their powers by defeating the Fantastic Four in his absence. They decided to start by capturing the Human Torch as they viewed him as the weakest member of the group. With Phillips posing as a reporter from Auto Age Magazine the Trio attacked the Torch while he had his guard down and easily defeated him. They then placed the Torch in one of four specially prepared trailers built to imprison the Fantastic Four. They then went to the home of the Invisible Girl to capture her there but the Torch broke free and tracked the Trio down and easily captured them and turned them over to the authorities before the rest of his teammates could be the wiser. The Terrible Trio broke out of prison a short time later and once again sought to get revenge against the Fantastic Four and capture them for Dr. Doom. They once again managed to capture the Human Torch unawares and tied him to a railroad track as bait for the other members of the group. Incidentally enough the Thing was out searching for his teammate after hearing the news that the Trio had escape. While they managed to capture the Thing, they underestimated his strength. Not only did the Thing manage to break free from his bonds he also managed to stop an oncoming train the Terrible Trio thought would kill both the Thing and the Torch. The Thing easily knocked out the unsuspecting Trio and turned them over to the authorities once again.; After a number of years in prison the Terrible Trio was release and once again focused on getting revenge against the Fantastic Four. Posing as cooks they infiltrated an sculpture exhibition being put on by Alicia Masters, the Thing's girlfriend. During this attempt, Yogi Dakor used his mystical abilities to allow Bull and Harry possess the forms of two of the statues and attack the attendees. When the statues attacked the party goers, the Thing smashed them and the feedback knocked out both Bull and Harry. Yogi was found by the Thing's all the Impossible Man who incapacitated this foe as well and the trio were once more arrested.; ===Recent Activities===; In recent years the Terrible Trio have ever remained loyal to Dr. Doom and have been involved in terrorist activities for the Latverian state. The trio most recently managed to obtain evidence that the United States still had nuclear weapons pointed at Latveria -- even after entering a disarmament agreement with the dictatorship -- and stole the launch codes for them. The Trio hid in a derelict ship along Baltimore Harbor. Their location was discovered by the United States government during a time when the Superhuman Registration Act was being enforced. In response to the Terrible Trio the government sponsored Thunderbolts team were deployed to apprehend them. Before they could attack, one of their members, Penance, attacked alone. He easily incapacitated Bull and Yogi and then collected the control codes from Harry. Penance led Harry go and told him to send a message to Dr. Doom to deliver him the villain known as Nitro to him within 24 hours.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Equipment: Teen Brigade utilizes the most cutting-edge communication technologies. Due to the Sliding Timescale, this type of communications equipment varies from reference to reference (See Notes for more details
+Notes: When the Teen Brigade was first introduced in Incredible Hulk Vol 1 6 and in the majority of their appearances in the 1960s, their chosen method of communication was ham radios. As per the Sliding Timescale of Earth-616, the method of communication used by the Teen Brigade should be considered a topical reference in context to the date the story was originally published. For example, while Avengers Vol 1 1 shows the Teen Brigade using ham radios in the story, Avengers: The Origin Vol 1 1 shows Teen Brigade using the internet and encrypted digital messages.
+History:
+The Teen Brigade was a team of teenagers coordinated by Rick Jones during the time he was the Hulk's and later Captain America's sidekick. They first banded together to help the Hulk defend earth against the Metal Master. Their original job was to transmit messages to the heroes about current villains or situations that arose.; When Loki's manipulations made the Hulk seem to be a public menace, the Teen Brigade tried calling several of Earth's heroes to help, amongst them the Fantastic Four. Instead, Iron Man, Thor, Ant-Man, and the Wasp responded, leading to the formation of the Avengers.; They became regular allies and informants to the Avengers and were in close contact. After he was awakened from his suspension in ice, Captain America showed the acrobatic tricks and offered to teach them self-defence moves. They assisted the Avengers during their fight with Baron Zemo and his Masters of Evil, as well as in their fight against Kang the Conqueror, infiltrating his ship and freeing the trapped Avengers. They also helped to do research to find a cure for Wonder Man's illness.; <!-- ===Vengeance===; A new version of the Brigade later surfaced. Jack Truman fed them intel. Partying at a nightclub with Stacy-X and Sugar Kane, the Ultimate Nullifier came into conflict with Magneto. Magneto had come to see Stacy-X, disappointed in her behaviour.; Meanwhile, Miss America broke into Area 51 having been fed info by Barnell Bohusk and Angel Salvadore. She discovered the In-Betweener. Rescuing him, she was assaulted by the extra-dimensional demons known as the Braak'nhüd. They later battled the Young Master on several occasions who were intending to kill the "old guard", with a final battle in Latveria, and also banished Braak'nhüd once again.; Miss America later mentioned that she left the Teen Brigade after having what she called "creative differences." -->

+Notes: Wolverine: Weapon X Files Vol 1 1 mistakenly places Romulus' experiments on Logan with Carbonadium pills and Team X's mission against Omega Red in 1968, while the original issues in which those events happened, Wolverine: Origins Vol 1 7-8, set the events in 1963, which is the correct date.; Though Logan left Team X after their mission with Omega Red and the death of Agent Hollenbeck in 1963, he was still a member of the team when he faced Epsilon Red and then left for good in 1968. This date is even given in both Wolverine Vol 2 68 and History of the Marvel Universe Vol 2 2.; It should be noted that all these dates should be considered topical references due to the sliding timescale.
+History:
+Team X was a military black-ops unit established in the 1960s by the joint efforts of the subversive organization known as Weapon Plus and the U.S. Government's Central Intelligence Agency, overseen by C.I.A. operative Major Arthur Barrington.; Named Team X, as it was composed of mutant agents, the black-ops squad undertook several missions for the C.I.A., the Weapon Plus Program, and, although possibly unwillingly, for the criminal mastermind known as Romulus, who used his personal undercover agents, Logan (codenamed: Wolverine) and Victor Creed (codenamed: Sabretooth) to carry on his own interests. Other team members included C.I.A. operatives David North (codenamed: Maverick) and John Wraith (codenamed: Kestrel), as well as the mysterious Mastodon and Wolverine's former love, Silver Fox, although likely an imposter hired by either the C.I.A., Weapon Plus or Romulus himself.; Team X operatives also underwent multiple brainwashing sessions, with their memories largely altered or replaced by false ones implanted by the Weapon Plus teams, under the lead of the program's head scientist, Professor Thorton.; In 1963 agents Logan, codenamed Emilio Garra, and Sabretooth, codenamed El Tigre, were on a mission in Cuba after Kennedy's assassination, where they had been betrayed by Silver Fox. They were later joined by agents Mastodon and Wraith, and together they clashed against Silver Fox, known as Zora de Plata.; Agents Logan, Sabretooth and Wraith were sent on a mission in Southeast Asia.; Also in 1963 Romulus C.I.A. scienticists in Dallas, Texas, experimenting on Logan with Carbonadium pills; The whole squad was sent on Team X's last mission in Berlin, Germany; they were ordered to save C.I.A. double agent Janice Hollenbeck and to stole K.G.B.'s Carbonadium Synthesizer, required by soviet super-soldier Omega Red; Wraith tried to kill Red with a new weapon, but he survived and Wraith managed to teleport himself away to safety. In the following years, Omega Red continuously sought out the Team X members, believing they may know of its whereabouts.; In 1968, Wolverine was send to kill Soviet's Super-Soldier Cosmonaut Epsilon Red to keep the Russians from reaching the Moon first. When Sabretooth who fought his way through elite K.G.B., border guards and internal security to deliver an abort mission orders from the very top of the food chain.; Several years after the team disbanded, Weapon Plus formed its tenth iteration, the subversive Weapon X Program, overseen by Professor Thornton and funded by the C.I.A. through the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Thornton successfully contacted or captured the former Team X alumni, who were infused with a serum which mimicked Wolverine's healing factor and received a new layer of memory implants initially through staged scenarios, and later using Aldo Ferro's psychic powers.; Later, Wolverine successfully escaped the Weapon X Facility where he was experimented on in Alberta, Canada, while Mastodon retired, Wraith was employed by the U.S. Government, Sabretooth continued working for Romulus, and Silver Fox disappeared, with the only Maverick still working for the Weapon X Program.

+Weapons: Military firearms
+Transportation: Military vehicles, jets and helicopters
+Notes: A conversation between Creed and Wraith suggested that the former killed Dukes, but, seeing how Dukes was nearly invincible and formidable, this is almost impossible for someone to kill him that easily.
+Trivia: During their mission being dropped into Lagos, Nigeria, some members of Stryker's military mutant team (including William Stryker himself) wore distinctive military patches on their uniforms. This consisted of a skull wearing a green beret with an eagle's outstretched wings behind the skull, with the Latin inscription "Vinculum Unitatis" emblazoned directly underneath the emblem, which when translated means "The bond of unity."
+History:
+During the Vietnam War, William Stryker created a Black Ops group called Team X, which consisted of James "Logan" Howlett, Victor Creed, Wade Wilson, Agent Zero, John Wraith, Chris Bradley, and Fred Dukes.; During a mission in Lagos, Logan quit the team when he realized that Stryker was willing to have innocent people killed to achieve his goals. After Logan's departure from Team X, Stryker began fervently upscaling the team's actions, ordaining that they hunt down their own kind and round them up for his experimentation. Team X later disbanded, with all of their members morally compromised over the ethics of their actions.; Only Creed and Agent Zero remained faithful to Stryker (and it's implied that Wilson was brainwashed/electronically bound to Stryker). Six years after Logan's departure, Creed killed Bradley. Stryker asked Logan to help protect the other former team members, but he refused.; After Logan's girlfriend, Silver Fox, was apparently killed by his brother Creed, Wolverine agreed to participate in the Weapon X Project. Adamantium was violently injected into his skeleton, and when Stryker wanted to erase all his memories, Logan (now codenamed Wolverine) escaped and killed many guards attempting to apprehend him. Agent Zero and a large number of commandos attacked him, but were all slain by Wolverine.; Wolverine found Wraith and Dukes, who led him to Remy LeBeau (Gambit), a former captive of Stryker. LeBeau mistakenly thought Wolverine was sent to recapture him, so LeBeau attacked him, blasting him into an alley where he discovered that Creed had killed Wraith. Wolverine fought his brother and nearly killed him, but Gambit intervened, allowing Creed to escape.; After Wolverine gained LeBeau's trust, the latter took him to Stryker's base. There, Wolverine discovered that Silver Fox was still alive and that she was Stryker's operative. Wolverine fought Creed and gained the upper hand, but chose to spare his life, being unwilling to kill him.; After regaining her former lover's trust, Silver Fox led Wolverine to the location of many captive mutants, whom they freed. Creed and Wolverine then together fought Weapon XI, a bald, pale Wade Wilson who now possessed multiple mutant powers, and ultimately defeated him. Silver Fox was fatally shot while helping other captured mutants escape, and Stryker caused Wolverine to lose his memory by shooting adamantium bullets at his head multiple times.

Warlock proceeded to eliminate the soldiers inside the tank, and reinforcements arrived. Unfortunately, they were too late to save Tempo, who had taken a mortal blow. Reaper proceeded to absorb Tempo's memories before she died.; The legacy of Tempo Cadre lives on in the memories of Rogue and Frenzy, both of whom decided to keep their memories of Age of X.

+The men who would form the Terror Squad were all prisoners of war who found themselves in the same concentration camp in December of 1942. American Chuck Wilson and Russian Stanisofski both broke out by crawling under the barbed wire fences that surrounded the camp. They were spotted and fled into the forest. While the Nazi guards chased them, Twimbly -- a Briton -- jumped one of the guards, stole his uniform, and managed to sneak out in the commotion.; Wilson and Stanisofski eventually ran into Twimbly, and the three decided to work together to get out of Nazi Germany together. When they were spotted by a jeep patrol, Twimbly -- still clad in a Nazi SS uniform -- pretended to be a guard who had captured his new found friends, allowing them to get close enough to jump the men in the jeep and steal their uniforms and transport.; Driving to a German village, they spotted a trio of British fighters that were put on display by the Nazis. Because the ships were unarmed, they grabbed machine guns and stole the planes. As they were flying across the German country side, Stanisofski blew up a convoy carrying fuel to a Nazi base. Their flight attracted the attention of the Luftwaffe and soon a dog fight broke out. Using the machine guns they had in the cockpits of their planes to defend themselves, the three escapees managed to fight off the Nazi fighters and cross over into Russian territory.; Landing in a Russian airfield, they were greeted by Sanisofski's brother who welcomed them to the base. Having worked well together, they decided to keep on fighting side-by-side as the Terror Squad.; Their subsequent activities during World War II are unrecorded.

+Weapons: Various conventional weapons (Deadpool mostly uses them a lot).
+History:
+Team X is a black ops mutant unit formed by Weapon X to do covert missions. Some of them were brainwashed to join the team or were willing for a cause or money.; The members included were Wolverine, Deadpool, Mystique, and Sabretooth. For a time, things went well. At some point, Wolverine entered into a romantic relationship with Mystique.; They performed several missions, one was to kill a man called Nord. Once Wolverine learned the man had a child he could not do it, so Sabretooth was brought in to finish the job. All Wolverine really remembered of the mission was staggering into flames to rescue the man's daughter and finding the man gone.; Then, things changed when a new scientist was brought into the team's command structure. This scientist had ideas of how to enhance the mutant agents, sometimes genetically, sometimes surgically. When Victor and Professor Thornton tried to conduct one of the procedures on an unwilling Mystique, James went on a rampage and helped his girlfriend escape...only to be caught and experimented on himself. The experiment bonded the indestructible metal alloy Adamantium to his bones, as well as wiped out most of his own personal memories.; Lady Deathstrike and Omega Red were later added to the team.; After an unknown amount of time as a brainwashed assassin, Wolverine, now known only as Logan, escaped and began to wander aimlessly, trying to find some clue to his past.

Kid Carcass was killed by Cable while trying to steal a sentient chronocomputer, but Doctor Cephalopod, Fossil (Vincent Stegron), Black 13 (Calypso Hardy), Glam Goblin (Bart Hamilton), and Roach Man (David Doughty) successfully respectively retrieved Doctor Doom's Time Platform, the Pigeon's Time Egg, the Tallus, Kang's Time Ship, and the Sphinx's Ka Stone.; Despite Cephalopod's protests against progressing without the sixth artifact, Finale pressed him. The Finalizer failed and created new versions of Gwen Stacy, Finale recruited Nightbird (Gwen Stacy) as a new leader for the Terminal Six and to eliminate these versions.; On Earth-80329, using Cephalopod's knowledge on the template, Nightbird was able to cause the sacrifice of Captain Marvel and Gwen Jones by revealing their origins and true purpose. Cephalopod was gutted by Wolverine (Gwen Howlett).

The next recruit was the wrestler Screaming Mimi, who was in deep grief after the death of her partner and lover Angar the Screamer after a bank robbery. The high-flying engineer Beetle joined next, to leave a career of failures. Before the Masters could strike at the Avengers, Zemo's plans were foiled because most of Earth's Mightiest Heroes were declared killed in action against the psychic villain Onslaught.; Without a cause, Baron Zemo embraced Goliath's idea, initially uttered as a joke, of replacing the Avengers and the Fantastic Four in their heroic duty. Masqueraded as heroes with new identities, the Masters of Evil broke the psychiatrist Moonstone out of the super prison known as the Vault to round up the team. In the staged riot, the Masters arrested super villains they once had as allies to build a reputation. Completely rebranded with new technology and appearances provided by the Fixer, Baron Zemo rebaptized them as the Thunderbolts, a name that was crypto-fascist and friendly, as he desired to access the Avengers Mansion to profit with underworld distribution of privileged data. Baron Zemo acted as Citizen V, an ironic homage to one of his father's World War II adversaries; the Fixer became the well-resourced Techno; Goliath took on the role of the gargantuan powerhouse Atlas; Screaming Mimi made herself over as the adorable Songbird, with alterations to her powerset similar to those of the master of sound Klaw; the Beetle readapted his flying armor to become the human warship MACH-1; Moonstone adopted the identity of the shining Meteorite.; The Thunderbolts made their first public appearance combating the scavengers of the Rat Pack. In a heavily publicized introduction, they shared complex and convincing lies, instantly gaining popularity in a world with no protectors. By defeating their former allies of the Wrecking Crew at the Statue of Liberty, the Thunderbolts were cheered by the people of New York City and approached by Dallas Riordan, who offered to be an official liaison between the "heroes" and the city hall on the mayor's request. In another display of heroism, they tackled a rampaging Hulk, but had no success as the Hulk ruptured a dam on purpose distract the Thunderbolts and flee. Being more admired after fighting the Circus of Crime and saving Franklin Richards from the Mad Thinker, the Thunderbolts saw the fruits of their plan by being granted access to the Fantastic Four's Four Freedoms Plaza, which became their new headquarters.; Surprisingly, with the Plaza's systems, the Thunderbolts witnessed leader of the defunct Avengers, Black Widow, in direct conflict against the "Masters of Evil." Led by the mysterious Crimson Cowl, the criminals vanished in retreat. The Black Widow informed that these new Masters worked as mercenaries involved in the criminal underworld and that she would bring all opponents of the Avengers down with no exception. When Riordan assigned the Thunderbolts to capture Spider-Man for being implicated in a murder accusation, they ultimately teamed up with the web-slinging menace to defeat the actual culprits, the Enclave. The Thunderbolts secured the villains' mind-controlling bio-modem in secrecy. Genuinely succeeding as superheroes, most Thunderbolts began to actually think of themselves more heroically. This was exacerbated by the presence of Jolt, a girl orphaned in the Onslaught incident who was given bioelectric powers by crazed geneticist Arnim Zola and looked for the Fantastic Four for help. The Thunderbolts destroyed Zola's operations involving captive children in Latveria. Having secretly broadcast their mission to earn more respect, they were forced to recruit Jolt since she became adored by the public. She honestly trusted her teammates at face value, while her upbeat nature reinforced their newfound noble inclinations. In fact, Moonstone wanted to use Jolt's addition to confront and undermine Zemo's influence.; Hydra Supreme Baron Strucker used the Growing Man to attack the Thunderbolts for their intervention with the Masters of Evil's operations, but failed. Baron Zemo grew angrier for not having access to the Avengers' systems and, by noticing the team's growing heroic tendencies, even considering murdering Jolt to achieve his goals. In a confrontation against the Elements of Doom, he ordered his team not to intervene. However, in order to save lies, the Thunderbolts disobeyed his orders. After being apprehended, the Thunderbolts were ignored by Zemo on purpose to force S.H.I.E.L.D. grant him access to the Avengers Mansion's files. This caused Techno to be killed in action, as his neck was broken during battle, though he had downloaded his conscious to his Tech-Pac and created a robot copy of himself. Following the public defeat of the Elements of Doom alongside other super heroes, the Thunderbolts not only achieved glory but also the intelligence they had wished to gather for so long. What Baron Zemo really wished for is the trust of the world. Meanwhile, the Black Widow secretly contacted some Thunderbolts, insinuating she knew their true identities and suggesting they had a chance of redeeming themselves if they opposed their distasteful leader.; In an ironic coincidence, as the Avengers and Fantastic Four returned, Baron Zemo schemed to expose his Thunderbolts' true identities. Outed as the Masters of Evil, they were hunted down by S.H.I.E.L.D. official G. W. Bridge and forced to run away in disgrace. Sensing his allies had been seduced by the respectful life of a hero, Baron Zemo blackmailed them to ensure their loyalty. After destroying the Four Freedoms Plaza, he carried out a plan of forcing his will upon Earth's authorities with the bio-modem, coronating his allies as the Masters of the world. Moonstone influenced the Thunderbolts to rebel against their leader, with Jolt providing the necessary inspiration, although Techno and Atlas sided with Zemo. The Thunderbolts had their hopes restored when the Avengers and the Fantastic Four intervened. However, the heroes were also controlled by the bio-modem, being commanded by Zemo to destroy his former underlings. Having no option, the Thunderbolts escaped, now joined by Atlas, who had abandoned Zemo for brutalizing Jolt. The Avenger Iron Man resisted the mind conditioning and assisted them in stopping Baron Zemo. The Thunderbolts freed the heroes and thwarted the plot by deceiving Techno. However, Baron Zemo escaped thanks to Atlas, who acted out of a sense of obligation unbeknownst to his teammates. Although the Thunderbolts agreed to cooperate with the authorities, they mysteriously vanished before the heroes could take them into custody.; ===Most Wanted===; Still fugitives, the Thunderbolts were unwittingly transported to the dimension Atlas had been previously trapped in, Kosmos. The Kosmosians had been alerted that in the future they would be enslaved by Kang the Conqueror and forced to build an army of Growing Men for him. For that reason, they decided to capture those who had last confronted a Growing Man. The Thunderbolts attempted to dialogue with the Kosmosians with no success, being ultimately imprisoned and sentenced to death. Moonstone cunningly incited a rebellion to bargain for the Thunderbolts' return to Earth. To accomplish her plan, she committed regicide, swearing the others to secrecy to keep Jolt ignorant about what had actually transpired. Returning to Earth, the Thunderbolts set up shop in Colorado and decided to redeem themselves. As independent heroes, they went straight under new civilian identities. Atlas furtively abandoned his teammates seeing himself as an incompetent ally. Upon learning about his departure, the Thunderbolts were tackled by Bridge and a S.H.I.E.L.D. squad and chose to escape. Tackled by agents hired by S.H.I.E.L.D., the Great Lakes Avengers, rebranded as the Lightning Rods after being inspired by the false heroes, the Thunderbolts defeated their opponents and evaded capture one more time. Retreating into one of Beetle's hideouts, the Thunderbolts directed their forces against the Hulk ravaging a town in Wyoming. In fact, the Hulk was a robot doppelgänger, secretly created by Techno under Zemo's orders to release the powerful and insane Graviton from his extradimensional exile and blame the Thunderbolts for it. During a brutal fight that counted with the return of Atlas, Graviton easily overpowered the Thunderbolts and the Lightning Rods, but was ultimately convinced by Moonstone to retreat as he had no clear vision for his actions.; The hideout of the Thunderbolts was attacked by Cyclone. The villain lured the Thunderbolts to his base to be ambushed by Crimson Cowl's Masters of Evil, who offered them a place in her organization of mercenaries. Although seduced by the invitation, the Thunderbolts insisted on going on with their heroic duty. Finding no glory in their actions, they were contacted by locals about a menacing and burning monster, Charcoal, which represented a chance for them to improve their reputation. However, the Masters of Evil sabotaged their operation, ruining their chance of gaining public approval. In retaliation, they stroke back at the Masters. Although initially against the Masters, Moonstone's selfish orders got the team captured. Unexpectedly, the Thunderbolts were rescued by the Dreadknight while the authorities, who had been previously alerted, intervened.; Returning to their hideout after escaping, the Thunderbolts discussed the potential future of their leadership and were surprisingly interrupted by the Avenger Hawkeye, who revealed to have impersonated the Dreadknight. He outmatched the Thunderbolts to convince them he could get them pardoned if elected as the new leader of the team, part of a deal made with the Commission on Superhuman Activities. The Thunderbolts welcomed their new leader with optimism. However, unbeknownst to the Thunderbolts, Hawkeye did not have any official sanction for his plan as he had claimed. Hawkeye also demanded MACH-1 to turn himself in as he was the only Thunderbolt wanted for murder. Before they could come to a decision, Hercules attacked them, seeking revenge against Atlas for previous animosities. After Hercules was fended off by Hawkeye, MACH-1 agreed to surrender as a way to help the Thunderbolts restore their reputation. Hawkeye's involvement became public and covered by Gayle Rogers as they battled a Hydra squad. Hawkeye then moved the Thunderbolts to the mountain headquarters that once belonged to the alien Dominus. The Avengers assessed the situation, but ultimately agreed to give Hawkeye and the Thunderbolts a chance to prove themselves after joining forces to defeat the Dominex automaton.; ===Becoming Heroes===; After going public, the Thunderbolts were approached by Charcoal, who was revealed to be only a teenager and wished help in clearing his name. They were interrupted by U.S.Agent and the Jury who attempted to arrest them. Although the Thunderbolts escaped, they lost their cabin. Decided to prove their worth, the Thunderbolts planned to permanently take the Masters of Evil down. The Masters of Evil forced the Thunderbolts to protect a town from being engulfed by an artificial storm cast by a weather machine. During the battle, the villains escaped, while Hawkeye clashed with a new Citizen V, who wished for vengeance against those who damaged his legacy, but was ignored so the town could be saved. The Thunderbolts met public prestige and tracked the Masters to a high-tech headquarters inside Mount Charteris. There, a final confrontation against the Masters of Evil army of twenty-five super criminals ensued. Moonstone pretended to have interest in joining the Masters to gain their trust, being caged as a precaution measure. Meanwhile, the Thunderbolts infiltrated the mountain, being exposed by Moonstone to incite a chaotic battle against the Masters of Evil. The Crimson Cowl escaped with Moonstone, who ultimately betrayed her. The would-be heroes surprisingly discovered the Crimson Cowl to be Dallas Riordan, who refused to provide any explanations for her actions. When visited in prison by Atlas, Riordan was kidnapped by the V-Battalion, Citizen V's supporters.; Hawkeye asked the Black Widow for the flying vehicle used by the Champions, the Champscraft. When retrieving it, the Thunderbolts were attacked by the former Champion Archangel. After calling a truce, the group found out Graviton had claimed domain over an air-floating island in San Francisco. They got into combat against the master of gravity, but were captured. Using Machine Man's technology, Jolt and Charcoal nullified Graviton's control over the Thunderbolts as the insecure villain lost his mind once again and became a victim of his powers. Back to their base, the Thunderbolts found the Champscraft totally repaired and redesigned, in addition to other small improvements in their gadgets. Before they could investigate, Charcoal was kidnapped by his former masters from the Imperial Forces. The Thunderbolts infiltrated the criminals' base and were attacked by Zola's experiments known as the Brute Force. Counting with the unexpected help of the Jury and the mysterious Citizen V, the Thunderbolts fended off the Imperial Forces, who had associations with Zemo. They then found the secret tech support benefactor to be Ogre, a former member of Factor Three, an obscure group of mutant villains and the base's original owners. Tasked to be a caretaker when the group disbanded, Ogre hid himself for years. Offered a place in the team as a resident engineer, he accepted, but was immediately subdued and secretly replaced by Techno, who impersonated him as the Thunderbolts' "new" mechanic.; ===Scourged===; In order to boost their reputation as heroes, the Thunderbolts hunted the Hulk down again, with no success. Amidst this crisis, Jolt was shot dead by a mysterious hitman. Simultaneously, MACH-1 started to operate as the Beetle again, this time as a secret agent for the Commission on Superhuman Activities due to his heroic tendencies in the Seagate Prison. The Thunderbolts intercepted Beetle when smuggling the top-secret Omega-32 technology from Roxxon for evil industrialist Justin Hammer, a cover assignment from the Commission to combat Hammer. They fought Beetle and Hammer's supervillainous goons, who escaped. Hawkeye secretly arranged for Beetle's freedom with agent Henry Peter Gyrich. Beetle was freed for acting as an illegal agent for the Commission and for having arrested Hammer. Rebranded by Techno as MACH-2, he rejoined the Thunderbolts. Tricked by Daimon Hellstrom, Hawkeye marched to hell in order to rescue his late wife Mockingbird. The Thunderbolts decided to help him, making deals with the gods Enchantress and Pluto. In hell, the Thunderbolts confronted their inner demons. Ultimately, after fighting Mephisto, the Thunderbolts rescued not Mockingbird, but Patsy Walker.; While coping with the recent tragedies, the Thunderbolts were surprised by Citizen V, who was revealed to be Riordan, being ambushed by her own team, the V-Battalion. However, before they could help her, she was kidnapped by the real Crimson Cowl. Atlas infiltrated the V-Battalion ship to find Riordan, and the Thunderbolts followed him to Symkaria with MACH-2 hiring Sandman to be their guide. When fighting V-Battalion's super-human agents, an unstable Moonstone went missing and Sandman turned against his allies to attack his former associates from the Wild Pack, especially his boss Silver Sable. The Thunderbolts and the V-Battalion joined forces to stop Sandman. Lamenting this disappearance of Riordan, Atlas was subdued by the brainwashed Avenger Wonder Man, under Count Nefaria's command. Black Widow enlisted the Thunderbolts to help the Avengers against Nefaria, who planned to command the world by bombarding it with ionic energy, with his daughter Madame Masque at his side. Madame Masque betrayed him, assisting the Avengers instead. The two teams joined forces to fight Count Nefaria, who was incapacitated by Madame Masque. The bomb was rendered useless by Wonder Man and Atlas after they broke free from Nefaria's control. Moonstone was found on the Moon, where the Kree Supreme Intelligence was kept locked. Alongside Captain Marvel, the Thunderbolts helped her understand the soul duel her powers had incited within her. On Titan, Captain Marvel's allies, Mentor and I.S.A.A.C., attempted to forcibly extirpate Moonstone of her abilities for judging her unworthy of them. Captain Marvel sided with the Thunderbolts to convince his allies of their heroism. Moonstone was restored, body and soul.; Simultaneously, a brainwashed Gyrich sought to destroy the Thunderbolts, having his agent, the mentally conditioned puppet assassin Scourge, carry on a systematic assassination campaign against them. He had been responsible for Jolt's and Baron Zemo's deaths. He finally entered the Thunderbolts' base, where he destroyed Techno and imploded Atlas into a storm of ionic energy. However, his attack unpredictably revived Jolt, who had been tended to by Techno, and also resurrected Techno in his organic body as the Fixer. Scourge escaped, and the chaos he had incited led S.H.I.E.L.D. to Mount Charteris just when the Thunderbolts reunited with Jolt. Forced to retreat, the Thunderbolts intercepted Scourge. As the team discussed the recent revelations, the real Ogre asked to be left alone and Jolt accused Hawkeye of fooling the team by falsely promising them a pardon, straining relations. After being freed, the Scourge indicated he had acted on Gyrich's orders to help him eliminate every super-human on the planet. They confronted Gyrich just as Dr. Valerie Cooper gathered her own team of government-sanctioned heroes that mirrored the Thunderbolts, the Redeemers. Using the stolen Omega-32 technology, Gyrich carried out his plan, infecting the Redeemers with nanites to serve him, except for their leader, the new Citizen V. The Thunderbolts, joined by Scourge, Citizen V and ultimately the Redeemers, stopped Gyrich's plan to utilize experimental nanite technology to kill off all known superhumans. After his scheme was foiled, it was quickly revealed that Gyrich was infected with the nanites himself; Baron Strucker was the real mastermind behind the operation. Hawkeye used the events as leverage to get pardons for the Thunderbolts in exchange for their silence about the conspiracy within the Commission. However, Hawkeye had to go to jail for aiding the then-fugitive heroes evade capture. Since Hawkeye agreed, the Thunderbolts disbanded without his leadership, being forced into civilian lives.; ===No Redemption===; The Redeemers program became an operation based at Mount Charteris. Jolt and Charcoal, the only Thunderbolts with no criminal records, were folded into the Redeemers program under the temporary guidance of Captain America. In secrecy, their leader Citizen V had been possessed by Baron Zemo's consciousness as part of a plan envisioned by Techno. The Redeemers were targeted by Graviton, who sought revenge against the Thunderbolts. The Fixer abandoned the Redeemers to join Graviton's ally and counselor, Moonstone. Save for Citizen V and the Fixer, all other Redeemers were promptly slaughtered by the super-villain as he restrained all super-heroes and sequestered many capitals of the world to reform it under his image. Using V-Battalion's technology, Citizen V was able to bring Songbird and MACH-3 back to action. Atlas also joined them, being revived in the body of a paraplegic Riordan. Together, the Thunderbolts stroke at Graviton, being joined by he Fixer and Jolt; the latter had managed to rebuild her electric body after being dissipated by Graviton. A divided Moonstone ultimately turned against Graviton as well, marking the reassembling of the original Thunderbolts. With Graviton's mental and physical collapse, a black hole threatened to engulf the world. The Thunderbolts restrained the effect of the gravitational field, with Songbird encasing it in a solid sound shield. As a result, all the others Thunderbolts vanished, sacrificing their lives to save Earth. Citizen V escaped the effect by teleporting away and, as a result, got free of Zemo's consciousness, which was downloaded into Fixer's Tech-Pac.; In fact, the Thunderbolts were transported to Counter-Earth, the artificial world where the Avengers and the Fantastic Four resided after their fight with Onslaught. In a decaying world with no heroes, they met their analogues, Thunderbolts led by Baron Heinrich Zemo and formed by Helmut Zemo a.k.a. the Iron Cross, the original Moonstone's alternate Phantom Eagle, Solarr, Chain Lightning, and Makeshift. Faced with a moral dilemma, the Thunderbolts were torn between either help the tragic world or abandon it and return home. They ultimately used their abilities to help people and tricked their counterparts into helping them design a rocket that would take them home but also allow the fascistic Thunderbolts to seize control of Counter-Earth. The Fixer took the opportunity to transfer Zemo's disembodied mind into his double's unscarred body. Zemo then killed his alternate "father." The Thunderbolts ultimately destroyed the rocket to protect the world, ruining their chance of returning home. Instead, Baron Zemo suggested them to rule the planet as Earth's Mightiest Heroes.; The Thunderbolts turned Attilan into a haven for the hurt people of Counter-Earth. By nullifying a deadly entropic energy field that grew bigger in Japan, they started to be celebrated as saviors of the planet. However, Jolt questioned the morality of their ways. In the meantime, Moonstone stole the alien gem of the mentally vulnerable Phantom Eagle for herself, causing her powers to increase to cosmically dangerous levels. The Thunderbolts kept restoring the world from the catastrophes that had destroyed it, but a victim of the energy field in Japan ascended as the villain Anomaly to combat them. Seeing them as opportunistic people who took advantage of Counter-Earth, Anomaly tortured the Thunderbolts, but was easily defeated by omnipotent Moonstone. Tracking the source of his energy field, they found a spaceship linked to the mainstream Earth. The Young Allies intervened, claiming that only one planet could keep existing. To stabilize the situation and separate the link between the two Earths, Anomaly sacrificed himself, Atlas and Riordan got separated by wasting all of their ionic energy, and Jolt acted as an energy source to force the Thunderbolts into the portal.; ===Best Intentions===; On Earth, Hawkeye escaped from prison during Graviton's attack alongside Mentallo, Plantman and Cottonmouth as a consequence of Mentallo's machinations involving Justin Hammer's last legacy. Under S.H.I.E.L.D.'s director Dum-Dum Dugan's orders, Songbird contacted him with a pardon offer after they clashed with Cyclone. Hawkeye, Songbird and Plantman became the Thunderbolts of Earth and searched for Cyclone to learn about Justin Hammer's secrets. They tracked Cyclone back to one of Hammer's mansions in France, where they were attacked by Crimson Cowl's Masters of Evil. Crimson Cowl wished to use Plantman to disseminate a biotoxin to control the world. However, Hawkeye was able to convince the Masters Gypsy Moth, Man-Killer, Cardinal and Cyclone that they were at risk of being harmed by the biotoxin by associating themselves with the Crimson Cowl. As such, the Thunderbolts fully reformed with brand-new members: Plantman evolved as Blackheath; Cardinal as the flying machine Harrier; Cyclone; Man-Killer as Amazon; and Gypsy Moth as the sensual Skein. The Thunderbolts alerted Silver Sable about the Cowl's chemical weapon and its potential use in Symkaria. Together, they hit the Cowl and her Masters, learning she was in fact Hammer's daughter, Justine. Subdued by the Masters of Evil, the Thunderbolts were hopeless with Hawkeye apparently killed and Skein having run away. However, Blackheath managed to deactivate the toxin at the cost of his own humanity, for he evolved into a vegetal existence. This led Crimson Cowl to be defeated thanks to Skein returning and disassembling her costume. Dugan initially attempted to arrest the new Thunderbolts, but was convinced of their good intentions and offered them the opportunity to save the world.; The group was recruited by Citizen V to the V-Battalion's base regarding a spatial rift disturbance coming from an alien spaceship called Vanguard. While Cyclone deserted the team, Silver Sable used Crimson Cowl's costume to act as a teleporter and help the Thunderbolts. Hawkeye ventured into the rift, meeting the Thunderbolts who had just stabilized the void generated by the Vanguard spaceship on Counter-Earth. The two planets were saved, and the Thunderbolts, reunited. Moonstone teleported the Thunderbolts away from Silver Sable and the V-Battalion. In the aftermath, Amazon and Skein decided to leave for believing there was no place for them in the team. Atlas lost his ionic powers, and Riordan was granted super-human strength and reflexes as a result. The Fixer then empowered Atlas using Pym Particles. MACH-3 decided to return to prison to walk a decent path, being accompanied by Harrier. Ultimately, Hawkeye left the team, giving an allegedly reformed Zemo the opportunity to lead, helping the world instead of ruling it. Baron Zemo then went on to reveal to his team that he had lied. He still wanted to conquer the world... in order to save it.; Zemo led the Thunderbolts -- which included Riordan under the codename Vantage -- to perform anti-terrorism acts all over the globe, as part of his Project: Liberator. Although Hawkeye was proud of his former team, his teammates in the Avengers were suspicious of Zemo. Project: Liberation was ultimately an attempt to siphon the powers of all other superhumans on Earth. In need of a nuclear specialist, the Thunderbolts searched for the unstable Cobalt Man, who at the time was fighting the Avengers. The two teams joined forces to stop Cobalt Man, and Zemo opportunistically took him to their base. However, the Cobalt Man who joined the Thunderbolts was in fact Iron Man in disguise, as a spy for the Avengers. When the Avengers confronted the Thunderbolts, it was revealed that, as a backup plan, any power absorbed by the Liberator was to be channeled into Moonstone. Rancorously caught in an overwhelming spiral of madness from possessing such enormous levels of power, she dangerously planned to rip Earth's magnetic field to punish the Avengers. Blackheath, Songbird, Vantage, and Atlas sided with the Avengers to attack Moonstone. She fired a deadly shot of energy on Captain America, but he was ironically saved by Zemo, who was gravely hurt. Despite Jolt appearing a last-minute attempt to pull Moonstone back from the edge, Hawkeye shot her with a scrambler in order to stop the destructive rampage. A burnt and disfigured Zemo took the opportunity to seize Moonstone's twin gems and flee, vowing to get revenge; Moonstone was left catatonic due to the experience; Fixer escaped in the tumultuous ordeal; Jolt returned to the Young Allies and Counter-Earth; a depowered Blackheath was imprisoned again by his own volition; Vantage retired to work for the Commission; Atlas was once again depowered; Songbird was offered reserve membership in the Avengers, but turned it down for mistrusting them; the Thunderbolts were no more. Meanwhile, MACH-3 was then paroled from prison and publicly announced his intentions to form a new team of Thunderbolts.; ===New Thunderbolts===; Following the Avengers' disassembling and Hawkeye's demise, the creation of the new Thunderbolts team by MACH-3 was made imperative. In order to get funding, he made a repulsive deal with Baron Strucker's Hydra. As MACH-IV, he worked alongside Atlas and recruited the Blizzard for their group. Songbird also joined them, being kept ignorant about their association with Hydra. The new team battled Atlantean super-terrorists Fathom Five. During the battle, Captain Marvel, who bore a special interest in Songbird, teamed up with the new group to help them gain success. However, Atlas reacquired his ionic powers and secretly beat Captain Marvel to death, wishing to prevent him from spoiling even further Songbird's and MACH-IV's broken relationship. When the new Thunderbolts battled the Wrecking Crew, Speed Demon requested for membership under Strucker's orders. The group then decided to stop the Fathom Five, causing diplomatic distress with Atlantis' king Namor. When the Great Game targeted Namor at the United Nations Headquarters, the Thunderbolts helped him. With the rist of the building collapsing, the Thunderbolts forced the Gamers' employee Joystick to join them. In the end, they also counted with the Radioactive Man, who had been under the Chinese government's orders to retaliate at the Fathom Five. The new team was fully assembled.; ThE Fathom Five attacked MACH-IV and his ally from the Commission Carol Danvers, who had the Beetle armor restored as an alternative resource. When the Thunderbolts intervened, the Five was defeated, but Strucker had Hydra invade Manhattan during the fomented crisis in an attempt to obliterate it. All the Thunderbolts decided to save the city from Hydra. Baron Strucker escaped and his agents retreated. A last nuclear bombing was prevented by a mentally unstable Captain Marvel, who got revived as Photon to help the Thunderbolts. Due to MACH-IV's association with Strucker, Songbird decided to leave the team. Venerated as rising heroes, the Thunderbolts rebuilt a solid reputation as crime fighters. However, the team counted with illegal money from robbery to operate. King Namor stroke at the Radioactive Man for his action of having contaminated the Fathom Five's Llyron with a contagious radioactive illness. The Thunderbolts went to Atlantis and the Radioactive Man was convinced of purging the contamination.; The mass-manipulator Purple Man plotted to enslave New York City by drugging the water supply with his mind-controlling pheromones. His puppet Swordsman tricked Songbird into being framed for murder, prompting the Thunderbolts to investigate the situation. Having manipulated the Thunderbolts since their reformation, the Purple Man managed to have them turn against each other, and MACH-IV was wounded by a treacherous Swordsman. He was nursed while the Thunderbolts were ultimately able to destroy Purple Man's plans. Photon led the villain to madness by giving him access to the Cosmic Awareness. However, the Purple Man was mysteriously teleported away and brought before his real boss, Baron Zemo. This mission also allowed Songbird to get the position of team's leader and expel MACH-IV from the team. As part of the Commission on Superhuman Activities, Dallas Riordan offered to pardon the members of the Thunderbolts who still had outstanding legal problems in exchange for the group publicly attacking the new and unsanctioned Avengers, a plan envisioned by Carol Danvers and Hank Pym. The Thunderbolts lured the Avengers into leaving Avengers Tower, and only Spider-Woman escaped the sneak attack, beating Joystick senseless. The rest of her team was beaten by the Thunderbolts. Songbird told Captain America that her team could beat the Avengers any time. In the end, it was discovered that Baron Zemo was also the mastermind behind the entire scenario, working with the Commission to save the world. Simultaneously, the Fixer resurfaced and recruited both MACH-IV and Blizzard to work with him on a top-secret project led by Baron Zemo as well. They also recruited Man-Killer and Blackout for their cause.; Speed Demon was approached by the new Doctor Spectrum, who looked to reform the Squadron Sinister and take over the world. Meanwhile, former Squadron's member Nighthawk had been robbed by Speed Demon and looked for the Thunderbolts for explanations. The Thunderbolts fought the Squadron Sinister. Speed Demon pretend to join the Squadron by kidnapping Nighthawk, allowing the Thunderbolts to force a retreat. However, Songbird kicked Speed Demon out of the team due to his erratic behavior and offered membership to Nighthawk instead. Swordsman had been investigating Zemo and approached the Thunderbolts in seek of help. He was chased by a mindless Moonstone, who teleported the Thunderbolts to the Microverse. Zemo revealed himself with his own group of Thunderbolts, confronting Songbird's team about Photon's increasingly unstable powers which put the fabric of reality at risk. Baron Zemo blackmailed Atlas into joining him by offering him, through Blackout, the safety of his lost brother, the former Redeemer Smuggler. Baron Zemo ended up killing Photon. By convincing Songbird, he resumed his leadership over the Thunderbolts and consolidated the team. Songbird was revealed to be secretly working in coalition with Zemo since MACH-IV first restarted the team, acting for his best interests.; ===Civil War===; The acting directors of the Commission on Superhuman Activities Riordan and Gyrich contacted the Thunderbolts about the Superhuman Registration Act. The superhuman community had become ideologically divided in a war, with Iron Man supporting the registration of superhumans under S.H.I.E.L.D. and Captain America resisting it illegally. Baron Zemo met with Iron Man, Hank Pym and Reed Richards, and they expressed their wish of recruiting former supervillains to hunt down unregistered superhumans and suggested to incorporate the Thunderbolts into the pro-registration Initiative. As such, the Thunderbolts became jailers for the government, building an army of supervillains as part of Operation: Justice Like Lightning. In secrecy, Zemo allied himself with Captain America as well, promising ways to liberate his imprisoned allies. Meanwhile, Songbird made a deal with Riordan to betray Zemo after fully integrating with the Initiative. With his allies defecting, Iron Man assembled a Thunderbolts unit to capture Captain America's secret Avengers. The unit was formed by Songbird, Radioactive Man, Atlas, Venom, Bullseye, Taskmaster, Lady Deathstrike, Jack O'Lantern, the Jester, and the U-Foes. Not taking chances, Richards tagged these erratic Thunderbolts with nanobot technology to monitor and curb their actions. Before fighting as a unit, Jack O'Lantern and Jester were deployed to capture Spider-Man, but were promptly killed in the process by the Punisher.; Baron Zemo then focused on the Squadron Sinister's master, the Elder of the Universe Grandmaster, in a dispute to acquire the Wellspring of Power. Joystick was actually working for the Grandmaster and crippled Speed Demon, prompting him to assist the Thunderbolts with intel in order to recuperate his powers. With his main Thunderbolts team, Baron Zemo was able to overpower the Grandmaster and tap into the Wellspring's forces, but the traitorous Joystick destroyed the Wellspring. The effects of its destruction unleashed its power to the world, with the Thunderbolts army ultimately defecting when they should tend to the crisis in various cities. With the help of the telepath Overmind, Songbird convinced Zemo to resurrect the Grandmaster to save the world. Overmind also influenced Doctor Octopus to lead the Thunderbolts army alongside Captain America's and Iron Man's forces to protect the planet, leading the superhumans of the world to rechannel the Wellspring's powers to Zemo. The omnipotent Zemo killed Grandmaster one more time and seized his powers to stabilize the Wellspring. Songbird then ultimately betrayed Zemo, destroying his moonstones and rendering him powerless. MACH-IV's, Blizzard's and Smuggler's suits were ruined in the fight, and Atlas sacrificed himself to seal the Wellspring. The Thunderbolts drastically changed: Speed Demon escaped; Joystick was incarcerated; MACH-IV and Fixer were offered to work with Riordan for the government as engineers; and Moonstone reclaimed her original powers, being fully restored.; ===Initiative===; The pro-registration forces the Thunderbolts were part of won the war, and all superhumans were forced to register under the law. Songbird, Radioactive Man, Swordsman, Moonstone, Venom, and Penance -- the traumatized New Warrior formerly known as Speedball -- composed the superhuman hunting team. As a secret agent, they counted with the lethal and psychotic mercenary Bullseye. Moreover, Norman Osborn -- the original Green Goblin -- was named Thunderbolts' director, laying down a bold new order. Locked in the Thunderbolts Mountain as the Initiative team of Colorado, the Thunderbolts, except for Moonstone, who got promoted by Osborn as field leader, were controlled with a nano-chain that could trigger an incapacitating electrical discharge. They were also heavily advertised as the Initiative's golden heroes. In their first missions as specialized superhuman marshals they brutally hunted down Hurricane and Jack Flag. During these different missions, Moonstone had the Thunderbolts manipulate the situation to save face on television broadcasts, making the targets look like genuine threats to the public by causing mayhem on purpose. In the shadows, they were unable to escape the wrath of Bullseye, who paralyzed them. Songbird and Radioactive Man grew uncomfortable with the drastic changes in the team's modus operandi Moonstone and Osborn implemented.; Another target of the Thunderbolts was the Steel Spider in Phoenix. Through the timely intervention of Sepulchre and American Eagle, he was able to hold the brutal Thunderbolts off. American Eagle harpooned Moonstone's hand to the Thunderbolt's Zeus aircraft, taking her away from the battle but earning her fury. She sent Bullseye on the loose to end him. With Radioactive Man's help, Songbird tricked Bullseye into believing his nanochain had been disabled. He killed his handlers and pursued American Eagle. Upon learning of his escape, Moonstone fired his nanochain. Debilitated, he stood no chance against the Eagle, who injured him into a vegetative body. American Eagle and Sepulchre escaped, but Steel Spider became the battle's casualty, with his arm being ripped off and devoured by Venom before he got apprehended.; The dysfunctional team coped with their demons as the superhuman community started to see them as scum. Superhuman specialist psychiatrist Leonard Samson visited Penance to assess his mental health after he was violently subdued by Moonstone during a dissociative episode. Simultaneously, their mountain headquarters started to receive the Initiative's prisoners. Four telepaths held captive used their powers to turn the team members against each other. They coerced Swordsman into taking his father's legacy as Baron Strucker and into blowing up the Zeus transport, urged Venom on a cannibal rampage, and unhinged Osborn into resuming his mad Green Goblin persona; such actions killed countless support staffers. By forcing the Thunderbolts to forget about the nanochain resource, the telepaths descended them into madness. Swordsman and Venom fought each other in a deadly combat that left Venom maimed. In retaliation for it, the Green Goblin savagely crucified Swordsman. Songbird and Radioactive Man were telepathically misled, leading to a barbaric fight between Green Goblin and Songbird that collapsed both of them. Meanwhile, Moonstone was nudged into attempting to kill the Samson and Penance, but was knocked out. Unexpectedly, the secret Thunderbolt Bullseye recovered and killed the telepaths in the detention area, unaware he was actually saving the team. Osborn tried to downplay and dismiss the entire incident, but Songbird revealed the existence of incriminating footage, which Samson had furtively acquired. This guaranteed Songbird field leadership again, and she exhibited a harsher attitude after blaming Osborn and Moonstone for the death of her mother.; After allowing Arnim Zola to escape during a mission, Swordsman was rewarded with a clone of his deceased twin Andrea who appeared in the Thunderbolts Mountain, circumvented Osborn's leverage over him. Another interloper was the apparently resurrected original Captain Marvel, who attacked the unworthy Thunderbolts. Osborn soon realized he was in fact a Skrull agent part of a Secret Invasion on Earth. Since Starktech was compromised, he went on the offensive against the invaders by using his Oscorp technology in Washington, D.C.. During the fight, Moonstone and Bullseye took part in executing Andrea under the wrong suspicion that she was a Skrull spy, with Skrulls framed for the deed. Additionally, Radioactive Man was the cause of a reactive explosion after being a victim of the aliens, but the Thunderbolts managed to prevent any harm from it. By defeating the Skrulls in D.C., Osborn played up his team's role in the defense effort to the media, making them out as the force saving the Earth from Iron Man's bungling. His favorite Thunderbolts Moonstone, Venom and Bullseye journeyed with him to New York, gloriously aiding in the final battle against the Skrulls. Osborn gained focused publicity as he had the kill shot on the Skrull Queen across worldwide broadcasts. Having triumphed over Iron Man's disgrace, Norman Osborn replaced him by being promoted to head of the Initiative.; ===Dark Reign===; Under Osborn's rising dark reign, the Thunderbolts were to suffer drastic changes. Officially, Osborn's first action was to disband the team. Penance was sent to a mental institution by Moonstone, Radioactive Man was convoked back to China, and Bullseye was free to get revenge at Songbird, being aided by Moonstone and Venom. She was saved by the Swordsman's intervention, since he told the other Thunderbolts she had been vaporized when the Zeus, which she had stolen, crashed. However, Swordsman met his fate by being impaled by Osborn with his own sword. Osborn then transferred his Thunderbolts into a dark Avengers team.; The Thunderbolts were redesignated Osborn's personal black ops covert squad. He recruited Yelena Belova, the rancorous legacy of the Black Widow to be his field leader. Her first target was Samson, as a way to destroy the footage he had of the massacre in Thunderbolts Mountain, which could undermine Osborn's rule. The Thunderbolts hijacked an airplane Osborn, Samson and the president travelled in. As part of the operation, the irredeemably immoral Ant-Man poisoned Samson to make him go berserk and the saboteur known only as the Ghost secured the footage data. Then, the Green Goblin raided the plane. Osborn saved the president from the Goblin, boosting his credibility while damaging Samson's. In fact, the Green Goblin was the Thunderbolt Headsman, who was helped in the ruse by his teammate, the mercenary for money Paladin.; For attempted blackmail against Osborn, Deadpool infiltrated the Avengers Tower. Osborn employed his Thunderbolts to kill him. Deadpool ambushed the Thunderbolts, but could not harm the Black Widow due to being infatuated with her. The Thunderbolts stroke back, but Deadpool managed to evade the attack. With unlikely assistance from the Taskmaster, Deadpool thwarted them but was beheaded by Headsman. Secretly, Black Widow restored him to health and released him, contrary to Osborn's orders.; The Thunderbolts then traveled to Madripoor to recruit the master martial artist and killing addict Mister X. Ghost approached Black Widow about her true allegiance to Nick Fury. On the other hand, Osborn also included a new incarnation of Scourge who was loyal only to him and was in fact the volatile supersoldier known as Nuke. The Thunderbolts were then assigned to end a resurfaced Songbird under Scourge's leadership. Black Widow defected, joining Songbird and revealing not to be Yelena Belova but, in fact, the original Widow, Natasha Romanoff. Helped by the Ghost, Black Widow and Songbird made it to Fury's location. However, they were followed by the Thunderbolts since Ant-Man had secretly accompanied them. When killing Fury, Osborn revealed to the Widow that she had never been in contact with Fury, only with Osborn himself. Fury was revealed to be a Life Model Decoy. Headsman and Paladin betrayed the team to free Black Widow and Songbird, who were rescued by MACH-V and the Fixer. The Ghost scrambled the memories of their insubordination episode from Scourge's and Mister X's minds in order to allow them to stay with the team, although Ant-Man witnessed his action.; Wishing to torture and brainwash the Avengers Luke Cage and Iron Fist, Osborn had his Thunderbolts tackle them, but they were able to resist the dysfunctional team. The confrontation made Mister X uneasy, since he had not been capable of murdering anyone during his time as a Thunderbolt. He unleashed his deadly rage on guerrilleros in the jungles of Colombia, and the Thunderbolts retrieved him after a destructive conflict. On their way home, they were tasked of terminating the Agents of the Atlas Foundation, having the Grizzly added to the team. The fight between the Thunderbolts and the Agents raged on as deadly chemicals caused both teams to retreat. However, the Agent of Atlas Uranian implanted a hypnotic suggestion in Scourge's mind before departing. Upon seeing Osborn's face as a hologram, the latent programming in Scourge misfired and he shot Headsman in the cranium, horrifying his teammates.; Despite being eroded from within, the Thunderbolts immediately marched to war in Broxton, Oklahoma, site of the mythic city of Asgard. As part of Osborn's Siege of Asgard, the Thunderbolts were ordered to infiltrate Asgard's armories and steal Gungnir, Odin's spear, capable of turning the tide in his favor. The Ghost sent a call for help which got the attention of Hank Pym's Avengers. During the clash between the two teams, Scourge used the spear to sever U.S.Agent's left limbs. Paladin, Ant-Man, and the Ghost betrayed the Thunderbolts to defeat Scourge. Ant-Man finished Grizzly, while the Avengers Quicksilver cruelly maimed Mister X. Meanwhile, Osborn's plans failed with the return of the Avengers led by Steve Rogers and his reign of darkness fell.; ===The Raft===; After Norman Osborn's fall, a new team of Thunderbolts formed at the behest of Steve Rogers, who wished to prevent super-villains from rising to power again. Based out of the Raft maximum security super-prison directed by a handicapped U.S.Agent as Warden Walker, the operation was spearheaded by Luke Cage and included Songbird, MACH-V, and the Fixer as handlers, providing support to an all-new field team of rehabilitating prisoners. The convicts selected for the program were the Ghost, Moonstone, the unstoppable Juggernaut, and the vile Crossbones. Operating from the island prison, the team utilized a very unique transportation system: the dimensional-warping abilities of Man-Thing, now housed at the Raft in a special swamp-like terrarium.; During the team's first training session, they were approached by Baron Zemo. While Crossbones immediately joined him, Moonstone rejected him. The Ghost then recognized it was a ruse staged by Cage to test their new nanite system, since Zemo was in fact the Fixer in disguise. With the team secured, they went to Broxton to deal with damage control concerning Trolls after the fall of Asgard. The Thunderbolts clashed with and apprehended a girl born and raised with the Trolls. Next, they investigated the disappearance of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in a mine of radioactive Terrigen Crystals. Attacked by monstrosities, the Thunderbolts' handlers fell. However, the team of convicts still accomplished their mission; during the incident, Crossbones was contaminated by Terrigenesis. Back to the Raft, a blackout took place during a visit of Hank Pym's students from the Avengers Academy and the Thunderbolts helped to fend off the rioting prisoners, preventing any escapes.; When the vigilante Daredevil built a empire of shadows in Hell's Kitchen as the leader of the Hand, Cage learned police officers were being kept captive in underground dungeons and sent the Fixer to lead the Thunderbolts to rescue Darry Kimbro. With the Fixer critically injured, the Thunderbolts were left unwatched. Moonstone led them to accomplish the mission in order to gain a reputation. However, Crossbones killed Kimbro with his volatile Terrigen-based powers. Shaken by this death, Cage wished to deactivate the program. The Avengers then visited the Thunderbolts to supervise them. The Ghost sabotaged the Man-Thing's teleportation, leading both teams to an alternate dimension. The Thunderbolts attempted an escape, but the Ghost gave up after learning Iron Man had dismantled his conglomerate empire while Juggernaut was restricted. A corrupted Crossbones succumbed to his contamination and got expelled for wanting to kill Steve Rogers. Back home, Rogers convinced Cage to carry on with the project.; In need of manpower, Cage added Hyperion to the team in order to combat kaiju-like creatures created by M.O.D.O.K. and the Leader. The evil and very powerful new member proved to be a poor choice after turning against his own teammates. The Thunderbolts joined forces effectively to brutalize the traitor. The Man-Thing's absence from its natural habitat proved to be a local problem for extradimensional invaders took advantage of the situation. The witch Jennifer Kale broke into the Raft to free the shambling muck monster. However, Man-Thing returned of his own accord. It became then apparent how susceptible to magical attacks the Raft was. To this end, Cage worked with Doctor Strange to recruit the devilish sorceress Satana into the team.; Moreover, with Warden Walker promoting Songbird to be the captain of the Raft's handlers, the Thunderbolts program expanded. New convicts called in for the secondary squad were the Shocker, the savage Troll girl, the witty Centurius, the tricky Boomerang, and the nefarious Mister Hyde. After the main team returned from a mission to oppose the horrible Baron Gothenvald, the new recruits were assigned to join fight an army of the undead in Iraq. Meanwhile, Juggernaut was benched at the Raft by Cage for having acted out in field. He was summoned by the Asgardian God of Fear to become one of the hammer-empowered Worthy, Kuurth, Breaker of Stone. Juggernaut destroyed the Raft, causing a massive prison break in the ensuing chaos. The Thunderbolts returned, but were too late to stop the large group of escapees. Songbird led the untrustworthy new Thunderbolts to regain control over the ravaged Raft.; ===Lost in Space-Time===; With the world thrown into panic, the Thunderbolts targeted Juggernaut, being unable to exorcise him of the destructive Kuurth. Satana returned to gather reinforcements and teleported their command tower, the Raft's only remaining undamaged structure, from the island to a ravaged Chicago using Man-Thing's powers. This was schemed by the Fixer, who secretly kept contact with Baron Zemo and knew about a project regarding an upcoming and accidental invasion of genetically engineered monsters where the Thunderbolts were located. The Fixer led the secondary team of Thunderbolts to avert the chaos, during which he assembled Centurius, Boomerang, Mister Hyde, Moonstone, Satana, and, accidentally, Troll. Due to the Man-Thing being in the throes of an evolution the Thunderbolts tower was caught teleportational vortex, the team and their tower were cast backwards through time, giving their handlers the impression of a most elaborate jailbreak.; The time-travelling Thunderbolts ended up in the Alps during World War II, where Nazi agents attacked their mobile tower. Pretending to be American heroes from the 1940s, the Thunderbolts teamed up with the Invaders in battle. The Invaders asked the Thunderbolts for help in rescuing their teammate, the Human Torch from Baron Zemo and the Red Skull. In order to guarantee a future for themselves, the Thunderbolts had to protect both sides of the ensuing conflict. The Thunderbolts rescued the Human Torch and destroyed the clones Zemo had created of him. At the same time, Moonstone ensured Zemo survived to sire a son, who would found the Thunderbolts in the future. Empowering their tower with Baron Zemo's source of power, the Thunderbolts travelled back in time even further.; In Victorian London, the Thunderbolts hid their tower on the River Thames. Mister Hyde escaped them, being seduced by the 19th-century setting. Satana followed him, but she awoke the Iceni, demonic spirits that possessed local street walkers. To help Satana, Hyde slew the creatures killing the women they inhabited in the progress. The Thunderbolts joined the police in investigating the situation, eventually freeing Satana. In the end, all Thunderbolts were responsible for the murders attributed to "Jack the Ripper", causing the Whitechapel Murders to remain a mystery. For their next jump, they were secretly accompanied by the Ghost, who traced Troll's battleaxe's signature from the present in a ritual performed by Valkyrie. This allowed the Raft staff to know the Thunderbolts were trapped in the past. Ending up in King Arthur's court in Camelot, Troll fought the medieval Black Knight and Boomerang stole his Ebony Blade. The mage Merlin and the Round Table intervened, defeating and locking the Thunderbolts in their castle's dungeons. The Ghost freed them, igniting a messy fight. Merlin wished to get rid of the interlopers and helped them direct their tower back to the modern times using Moonstone's gem as a beacon.; Arriving to the period the original Thunderbolts team pretended to be brand-new heroes, the group attempted to hide but was intercepted by their past counterparts. During the fight, Moonstone approached her younger self to forge an alliance for their benefit. Baron Zemo realized he was fighting a version of his own Thunderbolts, just when the Fixer and Satana attempted to out everybody inside the Thunderbolts' tower. The two groups of Thunderbolts joined forces to find a solution for the faulty time-travelling apparatus. Baron Zemo suggested to use Doctor Doom's Time Platform. However, the Fixer from the past hacked into his future self's database, learning the tragic future that awaited him. They fought each other and the younger Fixer was accidentally killed by his older counterpart. A collapse in reality was triggered, forcing the Fixer to paradoxically assume his younger self's place. Centurius reversed the Fixer's aging and erased his memory about the incident as well as the original Thunderbolts'. With his sacrifice by being trapped in an eternal loop, the Fixer allowed the Thunderbolts to continue their adventure.; In the present, while attempting to recover his teammates, Cage reformed project Thunderbolts in the ruins of the Raft by commanding some of Osborn's criminal Avengers under F.A.C.T.'s orders. The Thunderbolts found themselves in prehistory, where they found a debilitated Doctor Doom. Back to the early moments of Earth, the Man-Thing finally woke up from his dormancy state, revealing to be the cause of the malfunctioning in the Thunderbolt's transport. However, before they could safely return, Doom attacked them to force a return to the present. However, the Thunderbolts were beaten by the Latverian army, forcing them to retreat. Satana momentarily banished the villain to Hell, incapacitating him just enough for the Thunderbolts use their tower's teleporter.; They were unintentionally sent to a dark future where the Thunderbolts Tower got exploded by one of Doom's bombs. They had no extra luck by being tackled by the brutal enforcer Boss Cage. The Thunderbolts escaped due to the intervention of the criminal Outlanders and learned that they were in a dystopian totalitarian system. A shard of hope came to them in the form of a message transmitted by Cage with a new beacon to help them return. This allowed them to realize that having the criminal Avengers added to Cage's team was a scheme envisioned by the Thunderbolts' corrupted superiors in F.A.C.T., which would create the tragic future they were in through the collapse an energy-storage device. After leading a war against the totalitarian bosses in Mondo City, the Thunderbolts ultimately convinced Boss Cage to let them go in order to destroy any chance of that horrible reality coming to be. In the present, Warden Walker, Songbird and MACH-V combatted F.A.C.T. while Cage and the Juggernaut attempted to prevent the dark Avengers from finishing their mission and triggering the catastrophe. Guided by Man-Thing, the Thunderbolts returned and stopped the Avengers, saving the world from getting corrupted. In the end, Cage vouched for the heroic Thunderbolts, disbanding the team. The former Thunderbolts refused to go back to jail and, with Cage's blessing, went to different ways with Man-Thing providing the best destination for each of them.; ===Hydra Empire===; S.H.I.E.L.D. director Maria Hill ran a rehabilitating facility for super-criminals using Cosmic Cube technology to create a simulation. In the peaceful town of Pleasant Hill, the convicts lived ordinary lives with no recollection of their previous existence. However, the fragments of the Cube gained sentience, assuming the form of a little girl baptized Kobik. Kobik acted on her free will sometimes and, sensing that some of the Fixer's former allies missed him, she recovered him from the paradoxical loop he had been trapped in. The Fixer was able to use his gadgets to see through the ruse and helped Baron Zemo to overcome the cosmic conditioning. Together, they decided to secretly create an army to end Pleasant Hill.; Another opponent to Pleasant Hill was Captain America's former sidekick Bucky, also known as the lethal Winter Soldier. He exposed the controversial method of incarceration to Steve Rogers, and Zemo took the opportunity to attack Hill when Rogers visited the town, sparking a riot to grab hold of Kobik. Manipulated by the Red Skull, Kobik restored Steve Rogers to his vigor as Captain America but also reshaped his history in order to turn him into a Hydra sleeper agent. The Avengers ultimately intervened putting an end to Baron Zemo's plans. Kobik ended the conflict in distress and vanished, deactivating Pleasant Hill for good. Kobik then contacted Winter Soldier for help in evading S.H.I.E.L.D. alongside her friends from the prison: the Fixer, Moonstone, Atlas, and the disappointed jailer MACH-VII, who would soon upgrade to MACH-X. As such, the Thunderbolts were reborn as fugitives.; As part of their war against S.H.I.E.L.D., the Thunderbolts raided their bases to keep them behind by stealing their intel. Simultaneously, Bucky wanted to keep stepping on Nick Fury's shoes in protecting the planet from alien invaders, with the Thunderbolts helping him in his mission. However, Kobik's presence proved to be dangerous as her childish temper and immense reality-shaping powers made the team uneasy. This escalated when she momentarily ripped Moonstone's gem out of her chest as part of a game. After destroying a Chitauri brooding nest, the Thunderbolts were attacked by Crystal and her Inhuman rescue crew, who believed the aliens to be their people. Although the Thunderbolts restricted the Inhumans and escaped, S.H.I.E.L.D. and Steve Rogers were able to get information about their activities as a consequence.; S.H.I.E.L.D. portrayed the Thunderbolts as terrorists, causing the powerful Squadron Supreme to hunt them to neutralize Kobik. With the Thunderbolts standing no chance against them, Moonstone convinced Kobik into using her abilities. As such, the Thunderbolts Clubhouse was transported to the North Pole, secluded from interlopers. By acting solo to protect Rogers, Bucky was detained by S.H.I.E.L.D. Without Bucky around, the Fixer and Moonstone attempted to manipulate Kobik for their interests with no success. They elaborated a plan to break Winter Soldier from S.H.I.E.L.D. custody, asking for Songbird's help for the operation. As an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., Songbird was able to get the Thunderbolts in the facility where Bucky was kept locked in. Unexpectedly, they clashed with Steve Rogers. In the end, Winter Soldier stood down to Rogers, but decided to leave without surrendering Kobik. In their next mission, the Thunderbolts tracked a faction of Zn'rx and easily defeated them, convincing Songbird to stay with the team.; Unfortunately, Baron Zemo's new Masters of Evil ambushed Thunderbolts' base after pinpointing Atlas' phone signal. He was beaten up, but ultimately saved by Jolt. Zemo was then able to capture Kobik for Rogers. Songbird freed her, causing Bucky to learn about Steve Rogers being a Hydra agent. Kobik went on a mad rampage due to the fight between the Thunderbolts and the Masters. Songbird, MACH-X and Jolt were saved from death by the Ghost, who had been secretly living with the Thunderbolts for some time. However, Moonstone and the Fixer betrayed Bucky. Believing Kobik to be a danger, the Fixer shattered her into many pieces. With no other option, Atlas also joined Zemo, taking Winter Soldier prisoner. Stuck out in the middle of the Arctic, Songbird woke up in the ruins of the battle and realized the Thunderbolts were no more. Counting with an Army of Evil, Baron Zemo helped Rogers establish an empire ruled by Hydra in the United States. Eventually, the heroes of the world were able to overcome the Hydra's supremacy.; ===Mayor Fisk===; A consequence of Hydra's attack was a boost in Wilson Fisk's popularity due to his efficiency in protecting New York City when it was trapped in a darkforce dome. He was elected as the mayor of the city and assumed a stance of anti-vigilantism in its streets. Simultaneously, the Punisher wished to execute Hydra's new leader Baron Zemo. Mayor Fisk came up with a plan to deal with the Punisher once and for all, having Baron Zemo, once again under the alias of Citizen V, introduce a new incarnation of the Thunderbolts during a press conference to the citizens of New York, promising that Punisher's reign of terror would end. His team counted with Moonstone, the Fixer, Radioactive Man, the Ghost, and the Punisher's enemy Jigsaw disguised as the Paladin. Black Widow helped the Punisher counter the Thunderbolts' brutal advances by gathering a team of vigilantes who killed dozens of Hydra agents infiltrated in the United Nations. In retaliation, Zemo had the Thunderbolts strike back and, after abandoning his team, managed to kidnap the Punisher's protégée, Sergeant Rachel Cole-Alves. Defeated, the Thunderbolts surrendered and were not offed by the Punisher only because Night Thrasher defended them. Baron Zemo was maimed by the Punisher and then terminated by a rogue Ghost under Fisk's orders.; When the dark god Knull was invading Earth, the Avengers warned Mayor Fisk to evacuate the city. Suspicious, he refused to comply and paid the price of having the city at risk in humiliation. He visited the Bar with No Name to recruit supervillains taking refuge there and illegally acting in Fisk's domain. They were promised a choice between prison and signing up. To show his ruthlessness, Fisk had Incendiary summarily executed when he chose the former option. Led by Taskmaster, the team initially consisted of Mister Fear, Batroc the Leaper, Star, the Rhino, and the inexperienced Snakehead and Ampere. The team's first mission was to contact Norman Osborn in the Ravencroft Institute to solicit a strategy for defeating Knull. The roster soon suffered losses: Snakehead was devoured by a symbiote-dragon, Ampere quit just before being murdered by Mister Fear to have his gadgets stolen, and the Rhino left unopposed. It became obvious that, for Fisk, those Thunderbolts were disposable.; With the Ravencroft Institute being stormed by infectious symbiotes, the Thunderbolts teamed up with the inmates Figment, Foolkiller, Man-Bull, Grizzly, and Mister Hyde, who were then invited to become "honorary" members of the team. Osborn's strategy turned out to be sending the Sentry to fight Knull -- a plan the Avengers had already tried to disastrous results. The Thunderbolts recovered the Sentry's corpse and set out to use it as a nuke to destroy Knull's lair atop the Empire State Building in a suicide-mission. Foolkiller was taken over by a symbiote and subsequently killed. Taskmaster then seemingly betrayed the other members of the team, before using Figment's illusion powers to trick Fisk into thinking they'd sacrificed themselves in a failed attempt to finish Knull. Once Fisk released a televised news statement proclaiming the Thunderbolts as martyrs after Knull had been defeated, the Thunderbolts revealed the deception and blackmailed him into not only increasing their pay but hiring them for further missions.; Not long after, Mayor Fisk implemented a harsh policy against costumed vigilantes and made his Thunderbolts the only sanctioned heroes of the city, also creating the Thunderbolt Units to assist them in handling any superhero threats. Initially, Taskmaster remained the leader of the erratic and violent team, which included the Rhino, Electro, Agony, and Whiplash. In addition to this, U.S.Agent also reported for duty, secretly wishing to sabotage Fisk and collect evidence for the FBI. He was promoted to be the new field leader of the team to force a sense of order among them. After the manipulator known as Conviction attempted to damage Fisk's electoral plans through his Thunderbolts, he reinforced his power. He had the powerhouse Abomination join the team and used the Purple Man's powers to keep the U.S.Agent submitted to his will. In order to tackle his opponents in New York City, Fisk had several agents operating with the Thunderbolts Units; Doctor Octopus arrested the Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman, the Shocker targeted Luke Cage and Jessica Jones, Kraven the Hunter hunted Elektra, Puff Adder and Coachwhip clashed with Spider-Woman, and Crossbones hit Iron Fist. Beyond's Spider-Man was brutally taken into custody by the Thunderbolts as well.; Planning to expand his persuasion powers to his potential voters beyond the Purple Man's reach, Mayor Fisk ordered the Thunderbolts to retrieve him the Purple Children. Not agreeing with his methods, the Rhino betrayed Fisk and contacted the Champions to expose his employer's plans. The Champions and the Avengers were able to intercept the Thunderbolts before Fisk could get hold of the children. Fisk then released the Purple Man, chaotically leading an army of brainwashed agents against the superheroes. Mayor Fisk and the Purple Man were ultimately defeated. Fisk was removed from power, and Luke Cage was elected the new mayor of New York City.; ===Mayor Cage===; Even as mayor, Luke Cage could not reinstate vigilantism. As such, the Thunderbolts and the support units remained the only official superhuman forces of the city. To make the best of the situation, Cage hired a public relations specialist named Helen Astrantia to create a new line-up that would redeem the Thunderbolts' brand. The team was envisioned to be appealing to the public. For that purpose, Hawkeye was invited back as the team's leader, America Chavez as the powerhouse, the new Power Man as "the brick," Gutsen Glory as the man of mystery, and Persuasion as the local psychic. Their first official mission was to detain the old Thunderbolts after they escaped custody and, despite a lot of collateral damage, the team performed admirably, even acquiring a new member, Monica Rambeau, who had in fact turned down the offer of being the new team leader before Hawkeye was contacted.; The Thunderbolts were dispatched to solve different crises in the city. Following an alert, they were tasked with handling a creature that terrorized people in the Met. The tiny monster called Eegro meant no harm, simply upset with the lack of a statue of himself in the Monsters Exhibit. Eegro joined the team at the request of Astrantia, despite Hawkeye's objections. In another assignment, they resisted the Super-Apes' attempt of conquering the zoos of the city. As the missions went by, Hawkeye and Rambeau clashed with different perspectives on the team's leadership. Seeking revenge against Hawkeye, the oneiric entity known as Nightmare psychically tormented the Thunderbolts. America managed to disrupt his influence, while the Thunderbolts defeated him on the physical plane. Persuasion ultimately knocked him out, ending his threat. The victory led Hawkeye and Rambeau settle their differences, while Cage congratulated the group for their accomplishments.; ===One World Under Doom===; Being a member of the Outer Circle, Bucky gained privileged intel and resources to act against terrorism. He reformulated the Thunderbolts as a secret strike force to eliminate big threats on a global level. His main partner was a Life Model Decoy of Contessa Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine. These Thunderbolts successfully murdered the Red Skull in Latveria, catching Doctor Doom's interest. After rising to power as the ruler of the world, Doctor Doom offered Bucky a position as the leader of his own cryptic group of anti-terrorist agents, but was rejected. The enraged Doom launched an attack against Bucky, which destroyed the Life-Model Decoy of the Contessa. Instead, Doom also framed Bucky for the destruction of his hometown of Shelbyville to justify the reformation of the original Thunderbolts, now operating under his control as peacemakers. The leader of the new team was Citizen V, whose real identity belonged to the real Contessa Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine.

+Kind: team
+Page: Those Who Sit Above in Shadow (Earth-616)
+Full name: Those Who Sit Above in Shadow
+Other aliases: Gods Above Gods; Gods of Gods; Gods-of-the-Gods; Shadow Gods; They Who Sit Above in Shadow,; Those who sit above even the Gods; We Who Sit Above in Shadow; We Who Live Above in Shadow
+First appearance: X-Men/Alpha Flight Vol 1 1
+Created by: Chris Claremont; Paul Smith
+Species / origin: Gods of the Asgardians; possibly Beyonders
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Utgard
+Notes: Those Who Sit Above In Shadow possess a scale of power well beyond the level of Asgardians. They have demonstrated the ability to manipulate great power, feeding off energy given by the Ragnarok cycle. They once teleported Loki to Svartalfheim when he fell out of their favor. Yet they could not predict Thor destroying the Loom of the Fates, so their claim of omniscience is hyperbole.; It was hypothesized by Loki that Those Who Sit Above In Shadow could have been created by the Asgardians' beliefs, or were even Beyonders.; To be noted that their sentences "Slay your enemies and all you desire shall be yours" and "Nothing you dream of is impossible for us to accomplish" mimicked the Beyonder's.; They were also stated to share certain similarities with the Primal Gods.; It was recently revealed that Thor would go to the Elder-Sleep where he could commune with the spirits and the old dead kings whenever he used Mjolnir to switch places with Donald Blake. When Thor most recently traded places with Blake, the elder spirits and the ancient kings who turned their eyes from him looked like three of Those Who Sit Above In Shadow.
+Trivia: Stan Lee (jokingly) stated that their names were Larry, Larry, Larry, Ralph, and Larry.
+History:
+The realm of Asgard existed in an endless cycle of death and rebirth. Those Who Sit Above in Shadow lived off the energy released by Ragnarök, and caused the cycle to continue.; They were allegedly the creators of the Asgardians, but were possibly created by them instead, as myths which became reality.; Those Who Sit Above in Shadow were first seen when Loki tried to win their favor. Loki attempted good deeds, but they were not pleased by his actions and rejected him.; When Odin sent Thor to Earth to learn a lesson in humility by becoming human, a loophole was created in the cycle, as Those Who Sit Above in Shadow could no longer predict what Thor would do when influenced by man, and thus could not keep Thor bound by his strand of fate. This was part of Odin's plan. When the final Ragnarok arrived Thor hung himself on Yggdrasil to gain vast wisdom and runic magic, and learned who was behind the cycle. Thor destroyed the Loom of the Fates, and broke the thread that holds the destiny of Asgardians, from which Those Who Sit Above in Shadow were absorbing energy. With their source of energy destroyed and the cycle broken, Those Who Sit Above in Shadow seemingly perished along with the rest of the Asgardian worlds and people.; Those Who Sit Above in Shadow revealed themselves to still be alive a few hours before the universe collapsed due to the Multiversal phenomena known as the incursions. They appeared before Odin in his dreams, announcing the upcoming end of all there was.; When all of reality was eventually destroyed, the trickster Loki was one of the few survivors of the universe, having used magic to both exit reality and safely contain the essence of his fellow Asgardians. After finding himself in a blank void of nothingness, Loki was confronted by Those Who Sit Above in Shadows, who demanded to be given the Asgardians' essence to feed on it. Loki defied Those Who Sit Above in Shadow, and even put into question their origin and existence. If the gods such as the Asgardians come from the stories that have been told about them, it was possible that the gods of the gods didn't create the gods, but had been created by them. Unable to answer or even counter the questions posed by Loki, Those Who Sit Above in Shadows fled.; <!--; ==Attributes==; ===Powers===; Those Who Sit Above in Shadow are considered to be Beyonders, beings who surpass even the highest cosmic entities, including the Living Tribunal.; Fate Manipulation: Those Who Sit Above in Shadow created a never-ending cycle of life, death, and rebirth for the Asgardians.; Dream Manipulation: They took Odin's astral form into their plane, and the sleeping Odin heard their dreams.; Astral Manipulation: They took Odin's astral form into their plane.; Transcendent Omniverse: Loki explained to Verity that the Beyonders ending all reality would mark the final death of Yggdrasil, the omniverse. The explosion of the entire omniverse did not reach the realm of Those Who Sit Above in Shadow, as they exist beyond all realities and realms, meaning the destruction of all that exists has no significance to their level of existence.; Immortality: Even after the loop of fate was destroyed, Those Who Sit Above in Shadow remained alive, as seen in Loki: Agent of Asgard.; Reality Warping: As Beyonders, they can warp reality itself and created the never-ending cycle of death and rebirth known as Ragnarök .; Life-Force Absorption: They feed on the life force of Asgardians through the Ragnarök cycle.; Story Consumption: They consume the stories of every Ragnarök from the House of Ideas, where all stories are kept.; Transcendence of Narrative Forces: As beings who consume stories, they transcend the narrative structure that represents all sequences within a frame. Since the Beyonders exist beyond narrative forces themselves, they can destroy and consume them—just as Those Who Sit Above in Shadow can.; -->

+First appearance: Thor Vol 1 440
+Created by: Tom DeFalco; Pat Olliffe
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Weapons: Each member of the original lineup had their own personal version of Thor's original warhammer, Mjolnir: Beta Ray Bill had Stormbreaker, Dargo Ktor wields Mjolnir itself, and Eric Masterson wields his mace, Thunderstrike.
+History:
+When Zarrko tricked the Thor of the future, Dargo Ktor, to travel to the past in order to combat the Thor of the present, Eric Masterson, the fighting brought another hammer wielder, Beta Ray Bill, to Earth. Beta Ray stopped the senseless violence between the two, and together, they formed the Thor Corps. Reluctant to aid the others, Masterson quickly decided to help Dargo and Bill stop Zarrko's mad scheme to become the undisputed master of time, and the three “Hammer Brothers”, as Beta Ray called them, made their way to Zarrko's ship. There they were tested against various enemies from the collective pasts, presents and futures of the Thunder god. Foes such as the King Cobra, Mercurio, the 4-D Man, Demonstaff, Skurge the Executioner, and Loki were pulled from the time stream by Zarrko to halt the progress of the Thor Corps. However, Loki, unwilling to be controlled like the others, turned on Zarrko and was ultimately responsible for his downfall. Beta Ray Bill used Zarrko's technology to return each of the heroes to their respective time lines before Zarrko's ship exploded.; Before long, the Thor Corps was called into action again when Demonstaff forced Dargo to reunite with Masterson, now known as Thunderstrike, and Beta Ray Bill in order to find his estranged wife, Ellene. Dargo had no choice but to accept since his archenemy had kidnapped his wife, Salla, and threatened to destroy all reality. The Thor Corps were transported, by Demonstaff, to the dimension his wife now inhabited, but the ruler there, Warlord Kargul, used the powers at his disposal to send them back in time to World War II. Once there, the Thor Corps were attacked by Captain America and the Invaders, but soon they found a portal that led them back to Kargul's realm. They found Demonstaff's wife, but Ellene wanted no part of her husband fearing that he only wanted to see her dead.; Meanwhile, Warlord Kargul found out that Demonstaff wanted to end all reality, so he and his demon hordes invaded the dimension of Earth to stop the madman's plans even as Ellene, still in Kargul's world, activated more dimensional portals to banish the members of the Thor Corps to separate timelines. Each of them found themselves up against such foes as the Guardians of the Galaxy, Spider-Man (2099) and even Kid Colt and the Rawhide Kid, but it wasn't until the three came together again and summoned the one true Thor that they stood a chance of defeating Demonstaff. As the dimensions began collapsing upon one another, the Thor Corps used the awesome powers contained within their enchanted hammers to prevent the end of all reality. Demonstaff finally realized the error of his ways when his wife Ellene finally confronted him, and he reversed the catastrophic events that he initially set in motion.; ===Battle against Toranos===; After Thor was attacked by Toranos, he used the Thorforce to blow Toranos through a portal to the Far Shore. Thor made his way to the Gray Area of the Moon at the edge of the All-Sleep. Loki tested him as he fell asleep with the intention of teaching him a lesson he needed to win the battle and having him create Tormod. After awakening, Thor began to gather his allies while Toranos tracked him to the Moon. Thor shared his power with Storm, Beta Ray Bill, Loki and Jane Foster to help battle the Elder God.

+After the Red Skull won World War II, his heir Victor von Doom came to rule the entire planet.; The Thunder Guard acted as a super-human police force. Ruled by the Norse God, Donar, this organization once numbered in the hundreds. On this world, there were two choices if you were a super-being: join the Thunder Guard or die. When the Avengers went to this world, to investigate their fears that it had plans to invade their own, they encountered the Thunder Guard and were forced to face a tragic battle with them that cost several Avengers their lives and left the others traumatized. During that battle, many of the Thunder Guard lost their lives as well, their numbers greatly dwindled. While the rest of the Avengers returned to their home planet, having delayed the plans of Doom, Captain America stayed on this alternate earth in an attempt to overthrow Doom through an underground resistance.; When a second group of Avengers came onto the Thunder Guard's earth, they did battle but this time, the Avengers had a more clear-cut victory. Doom was defeated and his troops fractured, battling for power. The entire roster of the Thunder Guard is unknown but many of them closely paralleled heroes of the Avengers' world.

As they were fishing, one Vinnie remarked that he hoped this forced break would end soon, since he preferred to face problems head‑on. The other Vinnie replied that it was better this way, since as long as the Punisher did not know where they were, they were safe.

+Transportation: Motorcycles
+History:
+The Thunderiders are a world-class motorcycle stunt-riding exhibition team based in the United States. Five of the Thunderiders' six regulars are mutants who possess a special mental link with one another that enables them to share certain information and feelings as well as project into a host body their combined mental and physical attributes during times of stress. This host body takes on the masked identity of the Marauder, also known as the Black Marauder, the Dark Rider, or the Black Rider. The parents of James McDonald, Winthrop Roan Jr., Leonard Hebb, Luke Merriweather, and "The Wolf" (real name unrevealed) were among the undisclosed number of couples who were the unwitting test subjects in an experiment conducted by the subversive organization Hydra.; The experiment, called "Project: New Genesis," was designed by Hydra scientists to create a race of mutants who could be trained as superhuman agents for the group. The expectant mothers were surreptitiously administered a mutagenic compound; and after the children were born; Hydra agents kept the children under surveillance as they grew to adulthood. When none of the test subjects seemed to exhibit any extraordinary superhuman power, the project was terminated. Unknown to Hydra, five of the test subjects did develop latent superhuman abilities, but they would not manifest themselves until the men neared adulthood and each other. Perhaps not coincidentally, the five latent mutants each developed an aptitude and passion for motorcycles.; Three of the five met in Daytona Beach, Florida, when motorcyclists from around the world congregated there for the first race of the new Unlimited Class Racing Competition, a tournament organized to test race high-performance vehicles. It was called "Unlimited Class" because there were no restrictions placed on engine size or power or technological innovation permitted in the races. McDonald, Roan, and "Wolf" each met for the first time at Daytona, but they manifested their collective self, the Marauder, a few days earlier. The Marauder had stolen into the corporate headquarters of Universal Technologies, a front for Hydra, in order to purge the computer files of records about them. When Hydra learned of the purge, it deduced the identities of the five file-subjects from cross-referenced data, but now lacked the detailed histories of the five.; Believing that McDonald, Roan, or "Wolf" must be the Marauder, Hydra sent an agent to Daytona to assassinate all three. James McDonald, who had recently resigned from the Central Intelligence Agency to work as a free agent, went to Daytona to investigate rumored Hydra activity. Winthrop Roan Jr., preferring to be known by his stage name "R.U. Reddy," went to Daytona in hopes of being hired as a racer. "Wolf" went to watch the cycles and the people. Each of the three narrowly evaded the Hydra assassin and was left a note by the Marauder claiming that they had a common destiny and should join together. After much deliberation, they agreed to do so.; Calling themselves Team America, they entered the first Unlimited Class Racing competition and won. Moments after victory, Hydra attacked the raceway in an effort to procure a unique guidance system used by one of the Japanese teams. Team America managed to foil their raid.; At the next Unlimited Class event in the Rocky Mountains, Luke Merriweather (alias Cowboy) and Leonard Hebb (alias Wrench), hearing about Team America's surprise victory, met with the three founding members and petitioned for membership. Merriweather and Hebb were the other two Hydra test subjects. Feeling a rapport with the newcomers, the three original Team Americans welcomed them into their ranks.; Unofficially, Hebb's girlfriend Georgianna Sue Castleberry also became a member of the team. Hebb was a gifted mechanic and designer of high-performance vehicles, and his Winnebago recreational vehicle became Team America's mobile headquarters. His girlfriend, Castleberry, it was later learned, was usually the host body for their collective persona, the Marauder, although she did not know it. Hebb designed and built a race car for Team America to compete in the Rocky Mountain race, but a Hydra assassin prevented them from winning.; When the three original Team Americans performed at a charity exhibition at Madison Square Garden in New York, one of the spectators, a prominent Nobel prize winner, was kidnapped by a large android. The Team assisted Captain America in rescuing him and several other well-known intellectuals whom the Mad Thinker had abducted to provide himself companionship; The next race event was held on the Sahara Desert in Egypt. Taking a commercial flight there, the Team was dismayed when their team leader McDonald (called Honcho) left the group to take a freelance assignment for the CIA to foil a weapons-smuggling operation. Honcho failed to show up in time to assist his teammates in the race, and Team America lost.; Deeply in debt, Team America returned to the United States. Talk of disbanding arose when their last motorcycle broke down and they had no money to fix it, but the Marauder left the team its own state-of-the-art motorcycle. With it, Team America traveled across the country entering every motorcycle race they could find. With all of the prize money, they paid their debts and rented a garage in Hoboken, New Jersey, to serve as their headquarters. Investing everything they had in a new high-performance vehicle for the next Unlimited Class competition, the team was disheartened when it broke down in a time trial.; Desperate, they accepted an offer from a recruiting agent of Stark International, who was more interested in acquiring the Marauder's motorcycle than he was in having their services. Learning that they would be absorbed into a team of seventy-two other drivers, the Team began to regret their decision. However, when Stark president Anthony Stark learned of his recruitment agent's disreputable transaction, he made restitution and released the Team from their contracts. In Lakebed, Oklahoma, the next Unlimited Class Racing event was held and Wolf of Team America came in first. However, the race was disrupted first by the demonic Ghost Rider, who wished to settle a score with the Marauder, and then by Hydra, which wanted to kill Team America in revenge.; In the melee, the Ghost Rider assisted the Team to fight off Hydra, but the Marauder was injured. Unmasking the silent cyclist, the Team was stunned to discover its identity to be Georgianna Castleberry. Later when Elsie Carson, regional leader of Hydra, failed a second assassination attempt, she revealed to them their connection with "Project: New Genesis" in exchange for her freedom. Believing her to be a victim of circumstances, the Team helped rescue her from her own agents who were supposed to kill her and her family should she fail in her mission.; After this battle, Team America disbanded. Wrench and Castleberry married. Honcho wanted to devote more time to espionage work. Cowboy invited Wolf and Reddy to join him in a series of charity exhibitions to promote Cowboy's school, and the two accepted. At one such event, in upstate New York, the criminal Viper and her associate the Silver Samurai attacked the New Mutants, teenaged students at Professor Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, who happened to be in attendance. The three Team Americans joined the fray but were unable to stop the criminals from abducting Danielle Moonstar whom the Team had caused to become the host-body for the Marauder.; On the threat of killing Moonstar, the Viper had James McDonald assemble Team America to raid a fortress in the Sierra Madre Mountains for a special crystal. While the New Mutants rescued Moonstar, Team America infiltrated the fortress, which was headquarters of one of the splinters groups of the Advanced Idea Mechanics and managed to procure the crystal. However, it was lost before it could be turned over to the Viper. The New Mutants did manage to rescue Moonstar. In exchange for their cooperation, Xavier taught the mutants in Team America to control the appearance of the Marauder.; Deciding that they missed the excitement of being in the team, the six decided to band together permanently once more. They changed their name to the Thunderiders and began training as a precision-riding stunt team as well as racers. Seeking to expand the team, the Thunderiders have held open auditions. Champion sportswoman Sharon Ventura was a member of the Thunderiders for a few months prior to becoming the second Ms. Marvel.; The Thing of the Fantastic Four was also a member for a few weeks, although he resigned before performing with them in public. The Thunderiders remain America's best daredevil motorcycle team as well as a top contender in the Unlimited Class Racing competitions.

+The Thunderbolts Gang were a radical African-American gang operating in Hell's Kitchen. While crashing in on a minor theft, the driver of the getaway truck crashes while trying to escape Daredevil, looking inside he was shocked to find that the driver is a boy no older than 15. Running into the Black Panther, the two rush the boy to the hospital.Black Panther explained that he was investigating the criminal activities of a local gang of youths known as the Thunderbolts. The Thunderbolts, Panther explained have been recruiting members from the kids that he teaches in his civilian guise of Lucas Charles.; The group itself, is anti-establishment and is under the belief that the "white man" is the cause of their ills, and believes that violence and theft is the only way to get out from under the perception of oppression. Daredevil also learned that the boy he saved Lonnie Carver had an older brother Billie who has infiltrated the group. Daredevil teamed up with Black Panther to break up the group, and with the help of Billy, they broke it up and turned them over to police.; Klaw began to realize that his sonic powers had been waning over the years and undertook an elaborate scheme to manipulate a youth gang into restoring him to full power. Klaw had the local Thunderbolts Gang accost and and take his powerful Sonic Horn. The Black Panther tried to stop the threat but a gang member used the horn to blast him. The Panther retrieved the comatose Klaw and took him to Avengers Mansion and stored him with his team mates in a protective stasis. The Panther then pursued the gang but they used the sonic weapon to create a creature of sound, a winged elephant with deadly claws. Captain America and Black Panther managed to defeat the winged elephant sound construct and rushed to the docks fearing Klaw had a plan to escape his suspended state.; At the docks Beast and Vision are attempted to ship Klaw's body to Wakanda when the Thunderbolts show up with Klaw's sonic-horn. They made a construct of a rhino and lion to keep the Avengers at bay while they blast Klaw with his horn to revive him. Revived and stronger than ever Klaw battled Vision behind a sound dome the other Avengers can't penetrate. Suddenly N'Yaga and Taku show up in a limo with the Panther's vibranium claws which dampen sound waves and will allow him to fight Klaw one on one. Black Panther ripped through the dome and finding Vision defeated attacked Klaw. The dock is blasted in the melee dropping Klaw and Black Panther underwater. The Panther managed to blast Klaw with his own horn causing his body to dissipate.

+Time Travelers typically appear as glowing green ethereal figures that strongly resemble Commander Arcturus Rann. They are almost as mysterious as the Enigma Force they serve. They observe, but they do not interfere. They hold great power, but they give it to others to use. The Shadow Priests claimed that they were only shadows next to the light of the Enigma Force.; Obviously, the Time Travelers can move forward and backward in time. They see possible futures, and when they detect a threat to the Microverse, they take steps to counter that threat. In their Temple of Time, they sift through clues and formulate strategies. They are not omniscient; often, their plans do not bear fruit until the last minute, when the fate of the universe may hang in the balance.; They are limited by the abilities of their agents. In Rann's case, when he lost the ability to tap into his subconscious, the Time Travelers had no way to communicate with him, much less manifest their power in him.; As individual entities, they are vulnerable. Baron Karza was able to capture several and drain energy from them. They are also able to act independently of the Enigma Force and travel to other universes.

+History:
+Baron Zemo disguised the team as the Thunderbolts taking one new identities becoming Citizen V, MACH-IV, Songbird, Atlas, Meteorite and Techno. They had been the debut superhero team that has been doing some heroics where they had a woman named Gabby as their publicist. The Thunderbolts were first seen when they helped the Avengers take down Growing Man. The press ended up giving the Thunderbolts the credit. Iron Man later tracked them to their headquarters and had a brief altercation with them until a bomb sent by Justin Hammer nearly wiped them out. When it came to three possible bunkers of Justin Hammer, each member of both teams went to them and fought each Mandroid. It was through one of them that Iron Man and Citizen V found that the Thunderbolts' publicist Gabby has connections with Justin Hammer. At the latest bunker, the Avengers and the Thunderbolts fought Justin Hammer in his Mega-Mandroid which had force field abilities. Thanks to Moonstone phasing through, the Mega-Mandroid was defeated with Justin Hammer being handed over to the authorities. Citizen V took the opportunity to fire Gabby as Iron Man wa believed to think that the Thunderbolts are good guys after all.; Ulysses Klaue was in the middle of a Vibranium heist until he ends up fighting the Avengers and the Thunderbolts. While fleeing from them, Klaw ran into Citizen V who was the one who secretly hired him to steal the Vibranium. Upon being defeated, Citizen V placed a device on Klaw's unconscious body and some on the Vibranium containers. Later on, the device went off which merged Klaw with the Vibranium turning him into a Vibranium version of himself. It took the Avengers and the Thunderbolts to defeat him. Suspicious of the Thunderbolts, Hawkeye found out that they were the Masters of Evil and got detected. Luckily for him, the Avengers showed up resulting a fight between the two groups. After being saved from death by Hawkeye during the robbery, and seeing what it was like be a hero, Songbird convinced the rest of the team to turn on Zemo. Together, the Avengers and Thunderbolts exposed Zemo as Citizen V which led to Zemo combining with the energies of Klaw to become an energy monster. Thanks to a strategy from Captain America and Songbird, the Thunderbolts were able to defeat the energy monster. While also stating that they might not have seen the last of Baron Zemo, Captain America advised to the other Thunderbolts members that they should turn themselves in and that they will become official heroes when they get out.

+Created by: Al Ewing; Paco Medina

+Reality: Earth-61893
+History:
+The Thunderbolts was a team composed by the superheroes who went against the Registration Acts during the Civil War. They were forced to undertake suicide missions in order to buy time off their prison sentence. The team was composed by Goliath, Invisible Woman, the Punisher, Spider-Man, and Steve Rogers, who had been stripped of his title as Captain America after being beaten by Iron Man.; ===Contest of Champions===; When President Stark and his Mighty Avengers were kidnapped by Maestro, a Hulk from an alternate dimension, the Thunderbolts were sent by Reed Richards to Battlerealm, a broken section of space-time at the edge of everything to where the teleport trail left behind by Maestro led to.; As soon as they arrived, the Thunderbolts found themselves battling against the Mighty Avengers, whose memories had been altered by Maestro, and the unwilling contestants of Maestro's Contest of Champions. Amidst the battle, Iron Patriot killed Steve Rogers, shocking everyone present, mainly Invisible Woman, who had fell in love with Rogers during their time as Thunderbolts. Generating an expanding force field inside the Iron Patriot Armor, Invisible Woman destroyed it from within, revealing an Infinity Stone in Stark's chest. Stark revealed that was the Reality Stone, and that he had been using it to subtly manipulate reality in his favor back in their home reality. He tried to use it to subdue his enemies, as well as his own allies, and make them forget what he had revealed to them, but it didn't work. Stark was then crushed by Maestro, who revealed to him that the Infinity Stones just worked on their native universe before proceeding to finish him off.; Maestro challenged the remaining contestants, as well as his allies, to defeat him, but they were no match for him. However, Maestro's victory was cut short with the help of two contestants he believed dead: Stick from Earth-616 and the Sentry of Earth-1611. While the rest of the contestants were fighting Maestro, Outlaw snatched the ISO-Sphere from him and wished the contest to be over. The ISO-Sphere was destroyed, the contestants were teleported to whichever place they wanted to be, and Maestro was sent to a cell in the Collector's museum.; While the contestants native from Earth-616 were sent back to their reality, the remaining members of the Thunderbolts, the Mighty Avengers and the Sentry decided to stay behind in Battleworld to protect its deposit of Iso-8 from any interdimensional invaders who attempted to get their hands on it, and thus was born the Civil Warriors.

+History:
+When the Thunderbolts went on a road trip on the Punisher's van, the Leader set out to kill the rest of the team. Feigning a headache, the Leader asked General Ross for a lighter to stare at the flame and help him focus. Afterwards, Sterns began releasing a small amount of gamma radiation which Ross absorbed unwittingly. Unaware of the cause of the raise in temperature, Ross tried to sweat it out but eventually passed out.; The Leader then tossed the lighter into the body of Deadpool, who had shot himself to avoid putting up with the trip. When Deadpool combusted, the Leader pretended to look for an extinguisher and shoved Ross into Deadpool's flaming corpse, killing him. Due to the fire, Agent Venom's symbiote panicked and left his body. The Leader set off a road flare to keep the symbiote at a distance, and stabbed Flash in the heart through his back. The Punisher saw himself forced to stop the vehicle by crashing it into a dirt mound. The Leader got off the van hiding a net with grenades, and lied to the Punisher and Elektra that his other teammates needed help behind the curtain of smoke. When they entered the back of the van to check, the Leader flung the grenades back at the van, killing Elektra and Punisher in the explosion. Sterns pondered that Ross and Deadpool could have survived the massacre, but dismissed that likelihood since he planned to be far away by the time they woke up. Rejoicing on his freedom, the Leader left the scene. However, he was intercepted by Mercy and killed.; This entire scenario was glimpsed by the Leader of Earth-616 in the form of a hypothetical scenario he planned out. He backed out from executing the plan, fearing that he couldn't trust his brain and worrying about any variables that might have escaped him due to his reduced mental capacity.

+Base of operations: Formerly Tiger Division Base, Buramsan Mountain, Seoul, South Korea
+Affiliation: National Intelligence Service
+History:
+Tiger Division was the government-sanctioned superhuman response team of South Korea. They were under the direct employ of the National Intelligence Service and their leader was director Ami Han's alter ego, White Fox. The heart of the team was patriotic hero Taegukgi.; When mercenary Taskmaster worked with Nick Fury to access a secret project called the Rubicon Trigger, one of the kinesic signatures they needed to open it was Director Han's. Taskmaster infiltrated South Korea and provided a local terrorist group with injections of gene enhancements. He then tipped off Tiger Division, and Taegukgi arrested them on behalf of the team. Using Pym Particles to shrink himself, Taskmaster hitched a ride on Taegukgi to the Tiger Division Base. Using his powers, Taskmaster took in Han's kinesic signature until he was spotted and forced to retreat. He managed to evade both the White Fox and the Black Widow by triggering the enhancements on the terrorists, who had been detained at the headquarters, causing them to release a psychic blast that incapacitated everyone in the building.; In an attempt to stage a coup, a gangster family called the Choi Faction employed the body-snatcher Mongdal and augmented his powers to take control of Taegukgi, threatening to unleash the hero on the Seoul if the government didn't cede control to them. After conscripting the Black Cat, the White Fox led Tiger Division on an attack on the Choi Faction's base of operations, the abandoned Alps Ski Resort. Most of the team performed a frontal assault and engaged Taegukgi, providing the White Fox and the Black Cat a distraction to sneak into the building and disable the Choi Faction's means of mind control. After finding the entirety of the Choi Faction dead, they were confronted by the mercenary cult named the Maidens. In the meantime, the rest of Tiger Division had been incapacitated by Taegukgi. After defeating the Maidens, the Black Cat and the White Fox stumbled into Mongdal. Before waking him up, the Black Cat injected him with a nanomunition whose injector she had stolen from the White Fox. After being woken up, Mongdal revealed he had enlisted the Maidens to kill the Choi Faction since he only wanted Taegukgi's body to just wreak havoc. Once Mongdal finished monologuing, the Black Cat detonated the nanomunition and killed him. Afterward, Tiger Division regrouped with the White Fox.; The Tiger Division was sent after MTO Corporation's criminal CEO Min-Jae, who had stolen the Psylot Gem. It was later revealed that Min-Jae used to be Taegukgi's childhood friend and former partner-in-crime back when the latter was a criminal before getting his powers from the Gem. The Division was unable to stop Min-Jae from using the Amplifier to steal Taegukgi's powers and store them back into the Gem but just as they were about to confront Min-Jae, Doctor Doom showed himself. Doom was originally collaborating with Min-Jae as he built the Amplifier, but now betrayed him to take the Gem's powers for himself, leading Taegukgi to reconcile with his former partner and teaming up against Doom. During the fight, the Psylot Gem's energy was returned to Taegukgi, further empowering him, but was destroyed in the process. In the aftermath, both Doom and Min-Jae left, while the Tiger Division was upset with Taegukgi for not disclosing his criminal life to them, prompting him to own up to his past during their next debriefing.; During the reign of Emperor Doom, under orders of the government, White Fox reformed the team as a Pan-Asian peacekeeping alliance by recruiting her Agents of Atlas teammates Aero and Wave, plus Karma, to the roster and renamed the team as Doom's Division after their new liege. Luna was tasked with recording a pro-Doom album while the rest of Doom's Division was sent apprehend the renegade Sunfire and his anti-Doom resistance. Despite the team's misgivings about serving under Doom, they reluctantly went along with the mission although Lady Bright resigned in protest. Doom's Division was ambushed in Hokkaido by Sunfire and his resistance group when it was revealed that Wave and Karma were working for him as double agents. After some fighting both sides called a truce. When Sunfire attempted to convince Taegukgi into forming an alliance against Doom, White Fox appeared and killed Sunfire and had the remnants of his forces and Doom's Division arrested for treason. Doom's Division, Wave and Karma were imprisoned beneath their headquarters with magic shields keeping them depowered and restrained. However, Gun-R II managed to evade capture and sought help from Lady Bright. The two broke into headquarters and freed their friends but White Fox anticipated this. The group fought White Fox, who was forced to flee outdoors when Luna Snow arrived to back them up. White Fox was restrained but Sunfire revealed himself to be alive. White Fox explained that she was secretly plotting against Doom but was forced to arrest the team and fake Sunfire's death to not arouse his suspicions. The reunited Tiger Division recruited Sunfire and his forces into their ranks and began making plans against Doom while White Fox covered up their escape to their superiors.

They found themselves in Mephisto's Netherworld, where Ross got an opportunity to wage an endless war against the hordes of demons. The Thunderbolts set up a defensive base, from which they could strike against their enemies on an Infinite Battlefield.; When Ghost Rider and Spider-Man came upon Ross and his men, Spider-Man discovered that the Thunderbolts were being played a cruel joke upon, as most of the demons were the souls of regular mortals. They discovered that the Darkhold was causing everyone to see those souls as demons, but Ross refused to believe it.

+History:
+===Worldstrike===; Following the defeat of the cryptic organization known as the Outer Circle, one of their members, Bucky Barnes, the Revolution, inherited the intel and resources they had constructed over decades of schemes and conspiracies. In order to make good use of his influence against evil lords, Bucky approached Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, the founder of O.X.E. who was a Life Model Decoy of the original master spy deceiver. He proposed to form a new Thunderbolts team to permanently eliminate the Red Skull and his enterprises. Their first recruits were Sharon Carter, the Destroyer and the renegade Red Guardian for a mission to raid the Red Skull's base in Argentina. The new Thunderbolts brought justice, like lightning, eliminating Red Skull's host body Aleksander Lukin and destroying his operations.; Based at Thunderbolts Mountain, the team's next target was Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin of Crime and White King of the Hellfire Club, who guarded the fortune of the late Red Skull. With Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow, and Yelena Belova, the White Widow, at his side, the Revolution infiltrated a party hosted by the Hellfire Club where ownership of the funds would be transferred, with the intention of stealing the fortune. The Widows performed the heist, but Bucky could not help confronting Fisk. During the conflict, he learned that, although Lukin's body was killed, the Red Skull had survived. The Thunderbolts stranded the fortune in an inaccessible pocket dimension. Back to their headquarters, the Contessa was able to track the financially-crippled Red Skull to Latveria. This posited a dangerous political scenario that could possibly trigger another World War.; The supporters of the Red Skull hidden in the American government wished to cover his tracks in Latveria by fabricating an operation. The mission was to be executed by U.S. Agent and American Kaiju. In Hong Kong, Shang-Chi, the Master of Kung Fu and lord of the Five Weapons Society, was sent by Bucky to expose the ruse. U.S. Agent was reticent about trusting Shang-Chi, while the American Kaiju was revealed to have been mind-controlled by the Red Skull when confronted by Bucky. The monstrous creature went on a rampage throughout Hong Kong, but was subdued by the Thunderbolts. In the aftermath, the Revolution offered the U.S. Agent a position in the Thunderbolts to get revenge on the Red Skull.; Although the Revolution informed the monarch of Latveria, Doctor Doom, of the Red Skull's activities, Doom was unconvinced and insulted by the accusation that the Skull had breached Latveria's sovereignty and ultimately denied the Thunderbolts entry into his country. Owning to Doom's warning of destroying them within ten minutes after detecting their presence, the entire team of Thunderbolts still infiltrated Latveria and attacked Red Skull in his hidden base. The operation last long enough for Doctor Doom to arrive and attack them, only for them to teleport at the last minute, which resulted in the Red Skull being obliterated by the blow in their place. Infuriated that he was proven wrong and got used by the Thunderbolts, Doctor Doom contacted the Revolution to threaten him, was talked down. Afterwards, the Thunderbolts reconvened at Thunderbolts Mountain to discuss their next targets.

+First appearance: Iron Man Vol 6 1
+Created by: Spencer Ackerman; Julius Ohta
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+Notes: As Iron Man noted during his fight with the Tiger Pack, Tiger Shark's recruitment was misguided since a tiger shark is a kind of shark and not a kind of tiger. Tiger Shark mentioned that he tried to tell Flying Tiger that.
+Trivia: Iron Man Vol 6 1 writer Spencer Ackerman liked the idea that Tiger Shark has no patience for Flying Tiger, and that Flying Tiger is so into tigers that he doesn't get that Tiger Shark isn't actually on theme. The name of their duo is also meant to further convey Flying Tiger's ignorance, since a group of tigers isn't called a pack.
+History:
+The Tiger Pack was a misguidedly-themed criminal duo assembled by Flying Tiger that consisted of himself and Tiger Shark. They were enlisted by Justine Hammer, their former leader in the Masters of Evil, to orchestrate the explosion of a laundromat, luring Iron Man to a distraction while she raided a warehouse where he kept his Mysterium Armor hidden. Flying Tiger set up a streaming rig to film and monetize their fight with Iron Man, but they were quickly defeated. After he let on that they were working for somebody else, Iron Man left the scene, leaving the Tiger Pack tied up for the authorities.

+The Thunderbolts are an elite division of the U.S. Marine Corps. By serving a government where superhuman vigilantism had been tarnished by public opinion, the Thunderbolts were in charge of obscure missions aimed at the maintenance of a surveillance state policed by S.H.I.E.L.D. through the Watcher Act. In this regime, the interests of conglomerates were absolute over the freedom of people, who lived under the false illusion of liberty.; The Thunderbolts were assigned to deal with the resurgence of the star-spangled super hero and freedom fighter Captain America. As the outlaw vigilante Defenders attempted to seize control over communication services at Times Square during New Year's Eve, the Thunderbolts were ready to intercept them. During the mission, however, Bullseye found herself unable to follow her orders and missed shots on purpose, sabotaging the Thunderbolts, which culminated in Captain America and the Defenders escaping.

+History:
+Gathered in San Pablo by the Sub-Mariner to destroy a device that could end up destroying the Earth, the Silver Surfer and the Hulk worked together with him to crush the dictatorship of El General in San Pablo before heading to another island in the Caribbean Sea controlled by the United Nations where they built a machine designed to control weather patterns. Namor feared that this machine would explode if operated past a certain power level and wanted his Atlantean scientists to test it to ensure its safety before the U.N. put it into operation.; The military, however, were distrustful of the trio due to their past activities and the government called in the Avengers to prevent them from destroying the device. Iron Man, Thor, and Goliath responded to the call, as the other members of the Avengers were gone to do a T.V. charity spot. The Avengers realized their error when Ikthon proved to everyone present that the device would have become unstable and exploded if used at full power, just like Namor feared. The Avengers would leave on good terms with the Trio, who would then disband shortly after. They would, however, gather again many times after as a group known as the Defenders.

+The Acrobat met with the young Human Torch, telling him that the rest of the Fantastic Four were taking credit for his accomplishments and exploiting him. He proposed teaming with him as part of the Torrid Twosome. They could use their abilities to collect reward money and get rich. Johnny wanted some time to think it over, but after an argument with the rest of the Fantastic Four, he called Zante and agreed to join him.; As a member of the Torrid Twosome, the Human Torch donned a new costume. Following The Acrobat's instructions, their first case was to rescue a teller trapped in the Glenville bank's safe. Melting his way into the safe, the Torch found it empty, then turned to find that the Acrobat had tricked him. The Acrobat blasted the Torch with a liquid asbestos spray and shot him in the arm, escaping with a million dollars in cash from the vault. The rest of the Fantastic Four, who had followed the Torch in order to investigate his odd behavior, had captured the Acrobat, but were distracted when they learned that Johnny had been injured, allowing him to escape. The Human Torch flew after the Acrobat, and melted the ground under his feet, immobilizing him before he could jump into a manhole cover and escape. The Acrobat was presumably turned over to the police.

The Garbage Man operated a profitable crack operation in New York, using the group Trash as protection and as runners and keeping them in line through abuse and violence.; Trash battled the super team called Power Pack when the team of young heroes tried to break up Garbage Man's drug operations. The Garbage Man ultimately defeated Power Pack, but when he tried to kill them, Trash rebelled and turned on their former master. Trash freed Power Pack and together the two groups defeated the Garbage Man and stopped his drug operation.; Freed from the Garbage Man, Trash turned down Power Pack's solution to become full-fledged heroes, instead choosing to make their own way on the street under their own code.; At some point, the group relocated to Chicago where they offered their services to various gangs.

+The Trinity of Ashes were a trio of mystical, malevolent beings of unknown origin who were assigned to battle the Vishanti in the War of the Seven Spheres. Armies fought on behalf of both sides for five thousand years, with the Vishanti's forces being led by Stephen Strange. Over that time, the horrors of war ate away at Strange's morality, leaving him a broken man, willing to use any means to end the war. The weapons and tactics he devised terrified the Trinity, and before he launched an offensive that could destroy them they sued for peace on the condition that the Vishanti's general be locked away for their protection. The Vishanti obliged, sealing Strange's memories of the war into a crystal.; Some time later, Strange died, freeing the sealed memories. They formed into an independent entity, General Strange, who began plotting to restart the war. With the terms of their surrender undone, the Trinity became more active on the Earthly plane, recruiting the future Director None and the Blasphemy Cartel. The Cartel began preparing the body of the Sentry as a vessel for them, filling it with souls they could consume.; Doctor Strange made a deal with the Trinity of Ashes for the power to destroy General Strange, as he was a mutual enemy of theirs.

+History:
+The Triumph Division were a group consisting of Philippines' finest superheroes. Even though they were headquartered in the Triumph Hall in Manila, they also dedicated their lives to protecting a good portion of Southeast Asia. Following a Filipino tradition, the legacy of its members are familial and run back centuries, with each new generation training their whole lives to replace their elders.; After providing the Philippines with invaluable assistance during the crisis caused by a tsunami, the Triumph Division were honored with a statue in Plaza de Roma. At the public ceremony during which the members of the Triumph Division were commended, a group of monks broke the rope line and approached the superheroes. Being undercover suicide bombers genetically engineered by Ezekiel Stane, the monks held onto the members of the Triumph Division and charged up. Red Feather ordered Wishing Man to make them disappear, but before he could act, the monks exploded, obliterating the entire square and leaving no survivors. As the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Iron Man attended the funerals for the members of the Triumph Division. Since all members of the team possessed secret identities, the services were only attended by their immediate families. Thor also attended the funeral of Anitun, since she had been the mortal host of a Diwata. A few weeks later, the succeeding members of the Triumph Division settled in the Triumph Hall. They were visited by Iron Man to pay respects.; When Tony Stark became a prisoner of the Mandarin, his allies Pepper Potts and Bethany Cabe set up a meeting in international waters with the Triumph Division and the Chinese superhero team the Dynasty and requested their aid to take part in a rogue rescue operation to retrieve Stark from Mandarin City. Both teams were glad to help since Tony Stark had been present for them. The heroes arrived during the final battle between Iron Man and the Mandarin. While the Dynasty took down the Mandarin's armed forces, the Triumph Division engaged the Titanomechs until Iron Man used the Swarm to destroy them.; Some time later, the Triumph Division prevented the Macronaut from making a landfall in Quezon City.; After the defeat of Sindr, Queen of Cinders, the Triumph Division was in Shanghai where they were being celebrated for their bravery of defending the Philippines and the rest of Southeast Asia during the War of the Realms. But Wave was removed from the group for leaving her post even though she was in an integral part of the victory.; Wave traveled 500 miles to a small island in the Philippine Sea to drown her sorrows but was located by Aero who wanted to make sure that she was okay. After a long talk between the two about Pearl's past, Red Feather arrived and demanded that Wave return her armor and swords since they were the property of the Triumph Division.

+Species / origin: Worshipers of Death. Their goals were to assemble the parts of the Absorbing Man's body to use him as a tool for killing everyone on Earth
+Reality: Earth-9997
+Base of operations: Mobile
+History:
+The genesis of the Tong of Creel begins with Carl Creel, also known as the Absorbing Man. In recent history on Earth-9997, he had absorbed the intelligence of Ultron, which allowed the Absorbing Man to use the full potential of his powers. He would go on a rampage through Washington, D.C. and would be met in opposition by the Avengers. Creel would end up using his superior powers to murder the Earth's mightiest heroes. However, the Vision, sole survivor would defeat Creel by infecting him with a computer virus. When Creel shrank down and turned into stone to try and purge the virus, the Vision smashed the Absorbing Man into pieces. The parts of Creel were handed out to various members of the super-hero community in secret to insure that the components of Creel were never reassembled.; When the Terrigen Mist (released into Earth's atmosphere by Black Bolt) began to mutate all the humans on Earth, Dr. Strange's man-servant Wong would fall victim to the mists. His mutation would manifest by turning him into a conjoined twin with split personalities. One side evil, the other good. His evil half was spiteful of Dr. Strange and wished revenge for all the years "forced" into Strange's servitude. Mephisto, once again manipulating humanity would use this to play to his advantage, hoping to create significant chaos on Earth-9997 for someone to use time travel to try and "fix" reality, creating a divergent universe for him to escape into and avoid judgment at the end of time.; To this end, Mephisto convinced Wong to betray Dr. Strange. At a time when Strange was traveling through various realms in his astral form, he would use spells to make Clea fall in love with Loki and grow bitter towards Strange's ignorance of her needs. She would slay Strange's astral form, trapping it in the Realm of the Dead while his soulless body lived on in the land of the living, making him incapable of being any use to Mar-Vell in the Realm of the Dead.; As an ultimate jest, Mephisto forced Wong to care after Strange's body, however he would also have Wong form the Tong of Creel under the guise of the Red Ronin. Their purpose was to collect the parts of the Absorbing Man and reassemble them so that they could use Creel as a means of wiping out everyone on Earth. In order to learn the locations and who had all the parts of Absorbing Man, Mephisto would disguise himself as a man named Mr. Church and connive his way into the Church of Immortus. There he would convince the Grey Gargoyle to get his friend Kyle Richmond to tell his visions of the future and record them down. In exchange for providing this information "Church" promised to make the Gargoyle once more be able to feel things again.; When Her gave birth to the reborn Mar-Vell, Castle Doom was attacked by mutants whom everyone believed that they were mutants that were afraid that the birth of a new child meant the end of their mutations. It turned out that the Tong of Creel were somehow involved as they took Her into their custody where she would be their prisoner for the next three years. The full motivation behind this is unknown, however Red Ronin suggested that it was an attempt to demoralize Adam Warlock, comparing Clea's betrayal of Dr. Strange as an eventual outcome for their relationship.; Mephisto would then communicate the location of the different parts of Creel in order for them to collect each one. With Kyle's visions of the future the Tong was always successful. Parts of the Absorbing Man were given to a Red Guardian, Sunfire, Reed Richards, King Britain, Johnny Blaze and others. The Tong succeeded in collecting all the parts, however their attacks on the portion trusted to Sunfire (now in the possession of Tao of the super-group Xen from Japan), Reed Richards (at his base within Castle Doom) and King Britain (in an attack on Buckingham Palace) have been recorded. However, they have admitted that upon taking to piece from Johnny Blaze, they killed the hero, this has been substantiated since Blaze's soul has been seen in the Realm of the Dead.; Their first recorded attack was on Japan where they succeeded in recovering Creel's hands from Tao of Xen. Attacking Buckingham Palace next, King Britain counterattacked with the aid of the Iron Men, the Dragon Man, Black Bolt (Ahura), Medusa and an army of Union Jacks. They failed in stopping the Tong from stealing the part of Creel trusted to King Britain. Later they would attack Castle Doom in Latveria. The attack was covered by members of mutated humanity who believed the Church of Immortus' propaganda about the Human Torches stealing their powers and humanities destinies in the stars. During the attack, the Tong not only succeeded in capturing the head of Creel, but also stole Dr. Doom's time machine.; In succeeding in collecting Creel's components, they reassembled Creel and the murderer was instantly restored to life. They set Creel loose on New York City, where he literally absorbed the entire island of Manhattan. At this time, Adam Warlock learned of Her's fate and tracked her down with the help of Mar-Vell and X-51. Adam Warlock would defeat the members of the Tong of Creel, and kill their leader Red Ronin who was revealed as Wong -- his hidden mutation revealed at last. Warlock would listen to Wong's good halves pleas to be put out of his misery, killing him and freeing Her.; Creel would ultimately stop his attack on New York, when Loki convinced him to save the Earth to turn into Vibranium and save the Earth from destruction. Leaving a shell of his gigantic body as a monument to his selfless sacrifice. Following Creel's sacrifice and Wong's death, the Tong disbanded, it is unknown if there were any survivors following Warlock's attack.

+The Tough Kids Squad were a group of unlikely friends who decided to group together while attending Westfield High School after various victories playing together on the school football team. Their members included Wally and Tom Danger, two recently reunited orphans, football champ Derrick Dawes, the rough and tumble Butch, and the Native American known as Eagle.; In their only recorded adventure, the Tough Kid Squad was captured by the evil scientist Dr. Klutch. As it turned out, the Danger brothers' late father had injected the boys with a serum that made their bodies physical and mental capabilities always remain at their peak. Klutch, the man responsible for the death of the Danger twins parents, sought to isolate the formula from the boys blood and use it for his own ends.; Capturing the entire squad, Dr. Klutch took them to his hide out, examining the Danger brothers while locking up the others. The Squad broke free, but not before Klutch managed to extract blood from Wally. With Klutch's hideout was set ablaze, the team fled out a secret passage, only to face the newly empowered Komba, Klutch's bodyguard whom Klutch had just injected with the Danger blood. In order to save themselves, the group were forced to kill Komba in order to escape the burning house alive.; Recaptured, the group was taken to another one of Klutch's hideouts where he extracted blood from Tom Danger and injected himself with the blood. Empowered by the blood, Klutch put the boys in his "Vault of Oblivion", a room with a descending roof that threatened to crush them alive. The boys dug themselves free and overheard Klutch organizing three bank heists at one time. Stealing guns, most of the Squad then held Klutch and his men at arms while Eagle brought the police. In a final battle, the Danger brothers knocked Klutch out with a vial of gas just before the authorities arrive to arrest the crooks.; Subsequent adventures of the Tough Kid Squad and their ultimate fate remain unrecorded.

+The True Believers were a group of 'counter-culture subversives' who were also called 'warriors of the information age'. The group had dedicated themselves to the pursuit and exposure of the truth at all costs and no matter who they had to go up against to ensure they achieved their goals of exposing secrets, lies, cover-ups and conspiracies. They were willing to pit themselves against any government, organisation or superhero.; The group was formed and led by Mavis Trent, an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. who used her position within that agency to track down those she believes could help her mission to expose her father's murderer, because of their own 'motivations to defy the establishment', as well as her father's last girlfriend due to her power and skills. Mavis also used her position at S.H.I.E.L.D. to help the team and to ensure that the investigation into them was fed enough disinformation to ensure they were not caught. The team exposed several superhero related scandals on their website which attracted them a lot of attention.; The True Believers took down a group of wealthy and influential men who were having sex workers kidnapped, drugged with Mutant Growth Hormone and LSD in a 'bikini fight club', with Mavis herself going undercover to expose them. The team then exposed a cover up involving a covered up charge of driving under the influence involving Reed Richards, only to learn that the entire thing was a set up by Rupert D. Vitz who called himself Surge, a man obsessed with becoming a member of the Fantastic Four who the team then helped to expose.; While investigating her fathers computer a bomb went off in his lab, throwing Mavis across the street and knocked into a coma, leading to her then being captured by former Hydra agents, though she was quickly rescued by the other True Believers. Tayln was able to use her empathic powers to learn that former Hydra agents had been hired by another party to steal information on a bioweapon from Mavis' father as well as rigging his car and lab with bombs. The bioweapon was a neurotoxin called Anathema and it was capable of reversing a person's behaviour, turning Armadillo from an enraged combatant to a frightened coward for example. The former Hydra agents were planning on selling this weapon to Madame Hydra, which Mavis heard while still in her coma. Shortly before Mavis woke up, the former Hydra agents were attacked by Madame Hydra for their defection.; Mavis had learned that S.H.I.E.L.D. were responsible for the Anathema project that her father became a whistleblower to stop and which then led to his death. To learn more about the situation, the True Believers kidnapped and used Tayln's powers to question Maria Hill, the current Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., about Anathema which they learned had been developed during the first Superhuman Civil War and was intended solely for use on Captain America (Steve Rogers) to get him to stand down and end the fighting, once Rogers stood down by himself the project was shut down and to the best of Maria Hill's knowledge also destroyed. After leaving Hill they were found by Tony Stark, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Director and Iron Man at the time, leading to a fight which injured Mavis and knocked Iron Man unconscious. The fight caused a break in Mavis' connection to her symbiote, preventing her from accessing its powers.; Mavis and the True Believers decided to take a break from their activities, leading Mavis to go and see her supervisor Chet Fleming for a date. Chet used an experimental cologne to paralyse Mavis and reveal that he had been the one to restart the Anathema project and that when the former Hydra Agents stole her father's work and he wanted to blow the whistle on the project, Chet planted a bomb in his car to kill him and also planted one in his lab to try and kill Mavis. Chet revealed he was going to blow up his home to kill Mavis and pin the murder on Hydra but Mavis was able to recharge her symbiote by jamming a screwdriver into an electrical socket and kill him instead. Iron Man arrived and made no attempt to arrest Mavis, simply asking her not to publish Maria Hill's name when the True Believers published the truth about Chet Fleming on their blog in exchange for setting up the Trent Foundation to offer financial and legal aid to anyone who was harassed or victimised for coming forward to tell the truth. Mavis then continued working with the True Believers.

+Created by: Gerry Conway; Herb Trimpe
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-148611
+Base of operations: Massachusetts Institute of Technology
+Equipment: 'Fastball' leg armor, 'Think-Tank' cybernetic helmet
+Weapons: 'Strong Arms', 'Beamsplitter' laser gun
+History:
+The Troubleshooters were five brilliant students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, being tutored by Professor Jennifer Swensen. The quintet decided to help Swensen after she became a fugitive for stealing her father's MAX armor in order to stop it from falling into the hands of the corrupt businessman Fritz Krotze. In helping her they also made themselves a target for Swensen's enemies, Krotze and his employers The Club (a shadowy terrorist organization).; They decided they needed an edge if they were to be effective and so used their scientific expertise to develop individual MAX based weapons by reverse engineering the MAX armor's designs: weightlifter Eduardo Giotti created a set of exoskeletal 'gloves' he called his 'Strong Arms' which had incredible strength, Teresa Roberts developed a cybernetic helmet called 'Think-Tank' which enabled her to interface directly with electronic systems, track & field hero Tim Ferris invented a set of mechanical leg exoskeletons called 'Fastball' which enabled him to run at up to 140 MPH, and the supposedly pacifistic and non-confrontational Andy Meadows created a wrist-mounted laser gun he called 'Beamsplitter'. Only Eric Chin had no mechanical assistance, and wanted none.; The Troubleshooters assisted Swensen for several weeks, but at heart they were students, not heroes, and did not actively seek out trouble despite their name; in addition, Roberts was in love with Giotti and resented Swensen because of his attraction to her. Their attempts to help Swensen also tended to backfire, as when Giotti donned the MAX armor in order to steal it back from the police after Swensen's capture and had to be saved from blowing himself up by Ken Connell, the superhuman who possessed the Star Brand, since the suit's power pack was damaged.; Eventually, the group decided to disband, but unfortunately they had by then made enemies of The Club, who sent the sadistic assassin Arun Bahkti to kill them. Bahkti targeted the Troubleshooters when they were divided, first blowing up Ferris's leg armor with a grenade launcher while he was wearing it, leaving him in critical condition and necessitating the amputation of his legs, and then attacking Meadows, Giotti and Roberts in the woods, and killing Meadows with his own Beamsplitter before leaving in order to leave the others wondering which of them would be next. Eric Chin, who had found the injured Ferris, declared that he wanted no more part of the Troubleshooters and left after Meadows' funeral.; Giotti, against Roberts' advice but with her grudging assistance, tracked down Bahkti and almost beat him to death with his Strong Arms. Before he could finish the job however, Bahkti's girlfriend Varna appeared and carried the unconscious Bahkti off, covering her tracks with a Molotov cocktail which almost killed Giotti. Finally realizing he was out of his league, Giotti subsequently destroyed his Strong Arms and he and Roberts decided that friend or not, they wanted no more involvement with Jenny Swensen or her MAX technology. However, Varna had already sworn revenge on Giotti and the remaining Troubleshooters for the injuries inflicted on Bahkti, who was suspected to be brain damaged. Whether she ever got that revenge remains unrevealed.

+Notes: Dreifache Zerstörung is the German equivalent.
+History:
+The group known as Triple Destruction were three Nazi saboteurs who were active during World War II. By the fall of 1943, they were notorious for blowing up three munitions plants in Bellville, leaving the authorities stumped as to their true identities. Their next targets were three munitions plants in Carsonville which Triple Destruction vowed would be destroyed at midnight Western Union time. They chose this precision timing to mock the American way of life.; The American authorities called in the super-speedster known as the Whizzer to help stop Triple Destruction, however even the Whizzer would not be able to be in three places at once. Even under the strongest lock down procedures at each of the plants, the Triple Destruction managed to break into all three factories and begin planting their bombs.; However, the Whizzer managed to defeat them all thanks to using the one thing Triple Destruction had on his side: time. In advance of the attack, the Whizzer had the clocks within each building pushed ahead five minutes setting off the precision timing of all three of the saboteurs and allowing the Whizzer enough time to capture all three and turn them over to the authorities.; The subsequent fate of three members of Triple Destruction are unknown.

In the end, Kate Bishop subdued Ivan, and Barton dealt with the Clown while the rest of the neighbors contained the remaining tracksuits until the arrival of the police.

The Tribe retreated when the New Warriors proved stronger than anticipated and Haechi refused to join them.; After learning from Maximus the Mad that Iron Man kidnapped Ulysses Cain, the Tribe declared war on Iron Man. Their first act was to Stark Manufacturing Facility SZ-4 near Zurich, Switzerland. When confronted by Queen Medusa and the Ultimates, the Tribe claimed their terrorist act was done in the name of Queen Medusa. After a brief fight with the Ultimates and Medusa, Medusa had Lockjaw teleport the Tribe to the Triskelion where they were taken into custody.; Members of the Tribe, including their leader Leader, later escaped from custody and learned that the former Inhuman king Black Bolt had returned to Earth but wasn't as strong as he once was. The Tribe attacked Black Bolt intending to capture him, but Black Bolt was tougher than expected. So, Lash decided to take Black Bolt's new friend Blinky captive to force Black Bolt to come to him.; Black Bolt eventually came to rescue Blinky while accompanied by the villain Titania. The pair fought off the Tribe, but Black Bolt was forced to surrender while Titania was knocked out when Lash threatened Blinky's life. The Tribe then revealed their plan to use Black Bolt's blood to power a crude T-Bomb to create new Inhumans all over the world. Things went awry when the ancient Inhuman the Jailer revealed himself from within Blinky and went on the attack. After the Jailer killed Jack Chain and Lash, the rest of the Tribe retreated and likely disbanded.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The Trion, later identified in human terminology as the Triple-Evil, is an ancient extradimensional intelligence composed of three unified cosmic beings existing as a single harmonic consciousness.; Eons ago, the Trion sought to eliminate internal corruption within their collective existence. To achieve this, they isolated and expelled all negative aspects of their being into a singular construct: a “dark shard” of concentrated entropy. This fragment evolved independently into a self-propagating force, eventually manifesting as a pyramid-shaped entity drifting through space. Rather than remaining inert, the shard developed predatory intelligence, absorbing civilizations, belief systems, and psychic energy from all species it encountered.; The Triple-Evil operates by inducing psychological simulation states in sentient beings, generating personalized reality-constructs that weaken resistance and facilitate assimilation. Victims are often transformed into extensions of its internal system or drained to fuel its expansion. The entity has demonstrated adaptive counter-measure capabilities, analyzing and neutralizing opposing superhuman abilities in real time. Its structure is partially organic, partially dimensional, existing simultaneously as matter, thought, and conceptual infection.; The pyramid contains multiple internal layers of reality distortion, illusion fields, and adaptive alien guardians created from absorbed civilizations. Its core functions as a convergence point for accumulated psychic and cosmic energies, capable of destabilizing planetary-scale systems. The Triple-Evil was ultimately disrupted when multiple cosmic energy fragments were unified against its central core, temporarily collapsing its structure. However, residual traces of its influence are believed to persist across interstellar regions, suggesting incomplete destruction rather than total eradication.

Their presence near the castle alerted the attention of Skol and his army of Troglodytes, a group of underground dwellers who were forced into living under the castle for centuries. They captured the Avengers and took them prisoner, where they were blamed for the barrier blocking their path as the Troglodytes used an underground entrance into the castle to steal food.; After battling a giant insect, and fighting off the attacking Troglodytes, Skol surrendered to the Avengers. The Avengers, however, decided to help the Troglodytes out by making arrangements with the British government to aid these underground dwellers.

+After Negasonic Teenage Warhead secretly altered the structure of the Terrigen Cloud roaming the Earth which was lethal to mutants in hopes to prevent a conflict between the X-Men and the Inhumans, a group of Inhuman zealots attacked mutantkind, believing the change in the cloud to be profane.; Five years after this turn of events, the Tribe was still on the hunt for Negasonic, who had gone missing as soon as she had changed the T-Cloud. A handful of members of the Tribe tried to hunt down Deadpool and his Mercs for Money, former teammates of Negasonic, in the demon-plagued ghost town saturated by Terrigen Mist that had become of New York City, now known as Limbo-Town.; Their fight was interrupted when several demons attacked the Inhumans, prompting both factions to temporarily work together to get rid of them. When they were about to resume the battle, Lockjaw stopped them, having noticed the imminent arrival of hundreds of demons attracted by the sound of the fight, so the Tribe left promising to continue another time.; Having hacked Machine Man's visual and auditory systems, Tribe member Grid spied on the Mercs and discovered they had found the location where Negasonic Teenage Warhead was hidden.; The Tribe soon teleported to the temple in Cambodia where Negasonic and a group of mutants lived and attacked both them and the Mercs of Money, who had travelled to Cambodia as well. Negasonic intervened in an attempt to reach a ceasefire. However, she was attacked from behind by Lash, who absorbed a portion of Negasonic's energies and tried to kill her. Deadpool's intervention made him the target of Lash's attack, with the backlash proving to be too much for his healing factor, causing him to die shortly after.; As the Inhumans prepared to retreat, Negasonic used her powers to travel five years back in time, and stopped her past self, or rather her past self from the Prime Marvel Universe, from altering the composition of the cloud, thus preventing this future from coming to be.

Eventually, Pythagoras was replaced by Empedocles of Agrigentum, and later Thales was replaced by Epimenides of Knossos. The Triumvirate tenure as Sorcerer Supreme had mixed results and ended around 400 B.C. when all three sorcerers were defeated by Caius of Lacedaemons, who succeeded them as the Sorcerer Supreme.

One of Ronin's victims was William Lopez, whose daughter Maya eventually became the gang's leader.; In late December of 2024 the Tracksuit Mafia raided an underground auction seeking to obtain a specific watch. By coincidence, Ronin's sword and costume were sold at the same auction and Kate Bishop put the costume on to conceal her identity while fighing off several of the Tracksuits. Assured that their old enemy had revealed her true face, the Tracksuits tracked Kate to her apartment. They later ambushed her on the street where was saved by Clint Barton. Kate took Barton to her home, only for the Tracksuit Mafia to shop up there and burn it down. Although the two escaped, Clint later showed up at the scene again, allowing the Tracksuits to easily apprehend him and take him to their hideout. They planned to torture him for the whereabouts of Kate Bishop, only for her to fall through the roof in an unsuccessful rescue attempt.; As Clint was interrogated about Ronin, he managed to free himself and later Kate, and eventually both escaped the hideout and hotwired a car outside to drive away. The Tracksuits gave chase, only being foiled by Clint's Trick Arrows and the duo getting away in a train.

+Trivia: The team name is based on the intended acronym of UFO. Which is more commonly pronounced as you-foe, an initialization.
+History:
+===Origin===; In an attempt to duplicate the creation of the Fantastic Four, these four power-hungry individuals went to great lengths to copy the accident that created the FF, even hiring the engineers responsible for creating the original shuttle to try and copy it exactly. The attempt succeeded, but the 'project' was interrupted by Bruce Banner, who discovered their ground control facility and was able to bring the shuttle down because he thought it had been exposed to the cosmic radiation by accident. Despite gaining power, the four immediately attacked Banner once they landed, believing they could have gained even more power if he hadn't interfered, but were defeated when Banner transformed into the Hulk, their new powers no match for Banner's raw strength and their lack of coordination as a team. They were defeated on this occasion, but went on to become the super-criminals known as the U-Foes.; The U-Foes escaped from the Raft when Electro instituted a mass prison break.; ===Dark Reign===; The U-Foes became a part of Norman Osborn's new Initiative as the team for the state of North Carolina, proving themselves loyal to both Hood's army and Initiative.; ===Siege===; The U-Foes later play a role in the beginning of Siege. Norman Osborn sent them to fight Volstagg. The resulting clash led to Volstagg destroying Soldier Field and giving Osborn the event necessary to start his war with Asgard. They were also among the first of Norman Osborn's forces during the start of the battle. They along with Osborn and his forces were eventually defeated by a large alliance of heroes.; ===Immortal Hulk===; When Gamma Flight, who were supposed to go after the Hulk, quit due to obnoxious behavior of their boss Henry Gyrich, Gyrich hired the U-Foes to go after the Hulk in exchange for full pardons for their past crimes.; When Hulk popped up while hiding in New York City, the U-Foes attacked him and took turns fighting him. The fight was temporarily halted when Vector accidentally sent Hulk flying to New Jersey with his telekinesis. After finding Hulk, X-Ray hit Hulk with anti-gamma rays that eventually killed him.; However, the anti-gamma rays had the unexpected effect of turning Hulk's Joe Fixit persona into a Red Hulk, allowing him and the Savage Hulk persona to escape the Below-Place. Hulk then resurrected fully repowered. With his restored strength, Hulk badly injured Ironclad. When Vapor turned into sulfuric gas in an attempt to stop him, Hulk turned the gas on Vector, blinding him. In a panic, Vector sent Hulk away all the way to Manhattan with telekinesis. Gyrich later lambasted the team for letting Hulk get away while X-Ray and Vapor put the blame on Gyrich because his retrieval team took too long to arrive.

The group believed that using stealing and grafting mutant body parts through surgery, employing unethical genetic modification procedures, and injecting mutant blood transfusions and X-hormone mutagens into their members would create the Third Species, humans empowered with mutant abilities. To that end, they have abducted and have been responsible for the deaths of many mutants for the sake of experiments and organ harvesting through illicit organ smuggling operations to make their members more like mutants. They have encountered students at the Xavier Institute on several occasions.; During one of those events, U-Men were detected by Xorn's special class and a battle ensued, whereupon Angel Salvadore destroyed a car with U-men presumably inside. On another occasion, the Omega Gang, lead by Kid Omega crashed into a U-men base, during a surgical transfer of body parts, killing the half dozen members.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: During a raid on Berlin, these adventurers were randomly taken prisoner by the Nazis and held in suspended animation, with the intent of studying them to learn of their abilities as a weapon against the Allies.
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+===1940's===; Twelve superhumans randomly kidnapped by the Nazis during World War II in order to study their powers for the Nazis' "Master Race" efforts. The superhumans were put in cryonic suspended-animation until the present day, when a construction project in Berlin, Germany inadvertently uncovers them. The series explores the culture shock of people from the 1940's being revived in the present day.; ===Modern Times===; Once reawakened, the government attempted to delay the shock of now being in the 21st Century for the heroes by recreating a 1940s hospital. The Phantom Reporter, however, saw through the ruse as there were several idiosyncrasies that did not make sense to him. The government soon drops the ruse and tells the Twelve the truth. They tell them that they would like them to become government operatives, but are willing to give them a year to get acquainted with the world they now find themselves in before making a decision. In the meantime, the military purchases a mansion for them to live in as they become adjusted to the 21st Century.; The Twelve attempt to adjust to modern life in various ways: The Blue Blade becomes a entertainer and celebrity; the Phantom Reporter continues his career in the newspaper industry and starts a column for the Daily Bugle, Dynamic Man starts to work again with the FBI and other law-enforcement agencies; the Black Widow reconnects as the "Instrument of Vengeance" for an unknown party and begins to go on missions again; and the powerful Rockman becomes distraught over being cut off from an underground Kingdom of Abyssmia that may or may not exist. He spends his time pounding the floor in the basement of the mansion where they are housed. On ballistics evidence, police arrest the Laughing Mask for a 1940's murder. Mister E is shunned by his family and Jewish community for hiding his ethnic background. The Witness continues his battle with crime. Captain Wonder has lost his family and friends but continues fighting crime and helping people. Mastermind Excello uses his vast wealth which has accumulated due to compound interest to retire in a mansion in upstate New York. Not much is known about the Fiery Mask, other than carrying guilt over the way he acquired his powers, but he was seen helping other heroes fight crime.; In addition, Elizabeth Zogolowski, the daughter of the creator of Electro reclaims possession of the robot. In order to increase the ratings of his faltering show, the Blue Blade contacts Ms. Zogolowski and asks her to consider letting him use Electro on his show. She agrees, but when the Blade attempts to use its remote controlling equipment he inadvertently downloads Electro's recent memories to his own mind, learning a terrible secret in the process. The Blue Blade attempts to blackmail Dynamic Man with this secret, but is later killed by a remotely accessed Electro. Investigating the crime scene, the Phantom Reporter is told by Ms. Zogolowski that the Blue Blade had learned something important when remotely accessing Electro, so he does the same. The connection is unexpectedly broken early, causing the Phantom Reporter to go unconscious, but when he wakes up he believes he has learned the secret that cost the Blade his life. He gathers together all the remaining members of the group to tell them what he's learned. He attests that Dynamic Man is actually an android whose robotic mind connected with that of Electro while the group were in cryogenic suspension, establishing a remote connection. He believes that Dynamic Man was then able to use the robot to destroy those things that were a moral affront to him, such as a gay bar downtown, without drawing any suspicion to himself. When the Blue Blade discovered this secret, he tried to blackmail Dynamic Man, prompting the android to kill him. The Phantom Reporter then has Fiery Mask burn off Dynamic Man's costume, revealing an artificial body with no genitals. Dynamic Man vows to kill the group, destroying their mansion before taking off. Rockman is able to hold up the building long enough to let the others escape before it collapses on him. Mastermind Excello, Captain Wonder, Phantom Reporter and Fiery Mask all track Dynamic Man back to the castle where he was created. During the ensuing battle, Dynamic Man kills Fiery Mask, who transfers his power to the Phantom Reporter. He then uses his newfound power to melt Dynamic Man into slag, though he also badly burned the right side of Captain Wonder's face and body. After Dynamic Man is destroyed, the rest of the members begin to move on and find their own paths. The Phantom Reporter and Black Widow join Mastermind Excello, who buys the world's largest private investigation firm, in an effort to make the world a better place.; ==The Twelve==; Blue Blade - (Roy Chambers); Black Widow - (Claire Voyant); Witness - (Unkown); Fiery Mask - (Jack Castle); Laughing Mask - (Dennis Burton); Phantom Reporter - (Dick Jones); Mister E - (Victor Jay); Rockman - (Daniel Rose); Mastermind Excello - (Earl Everett); Captain Wonder - (Steve Jordan); Dynamic Man (Android) - (alias Curt Cowan); Electro (Robot)

+History:
+After the new Masters of Evil attacked the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier in the name of Doctor Doom, Nick Fury decided to create a superhuman task force called the "Ultimate Alliance" in order to defeat Dr. Doom and the Masters.; Because of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier being very damaged, the first headquarters was the Stark Tower. As their missions continued they had to move to Dr. Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum as they had to travel to Hell. When Loki (one of the Masters) attacked Asgard, they had to move to Valhalla. After defeating Loki, who was controling the Destroyer Armor, Dr. Doom reveals to have stolen Odin's power and uses it to kill the entire Alliance. But it's revealed that Uatu the Watcher saved them and made Attilan their new base. He revealed the heroes that the only way to stop Doom was to find the M'kraan Crystal and steal the Muonic Inducer from Galactus; who was attacking the Skrull homeworld at that moment. After getting those items, the heroes returned to Earth, where Doom used his powers to twist reality slowly, and they flight to Latveria in order to defeat Doom once and for all.; Using the M'kraan Crystal and the Muonic Inducer, the heroes managed to steal a portion of Doom's power and use it against him. Finally; when he was weakened enough, Odin recovered his powers and teleported Doom for his punishment. Finally; Nick Fury disbanded the Ultimate Alliance as they are no longer needed at that time.; Four years later, the Ultimate Alliance was torn into two factions; the Pro-Registration and the Anti-Registration because of the Superhuman Registration Act; which caused the Civil War. But this war ended when the Fold have begun taking over the world and infected superheroes and supervillains with nanites under it's control. As the remaining heroes and villains had to work together to stop this. Working together, the Ultimate Alliance was able to defeat the Fold.; ==Original Members==; Captain America; Spider-Man; Thor; Wolverine; Iron Man; Deadpool; Mr. Fantastic; Invisible Woman; Human Torch; The Thing; Storm; Iceman; Colossus; Nightcrawler; Cyclops; Magneto; Sabretooth; Elektra; Daredevil; Luke Cage; Ms. Marvel; Spider-Woman; Black Panther; Blade; Doctor Strange; Ghost Rider; Silver Surfer; Black Widow; Captain Marvel; Hawkeye; Ronin; Moon Knight; Hulk; Venom (Edward Brock); Nick Fury; Doctor Doom; ==New Members during the Civil War==; Green Goblin; Iron Fist; Juggernaut; Songbird; Gambit; Penance; Psylocke; Carnage; Cable

+Transportation: The Trustees had at least one car.
+History:
+The Trustees of Hate were a group that occupied a castle in the Balkan Mountains between the nations of Borsia and Gratzia. They were led by the evil Doctor Vortex who sought to push the two nations into warring with each other for unrevealed reasons. Their members included a thug named Weasel, female operative Lara, and a green skinned executioner named Lor. Those who would oppose them were tossed into a lime pit that was outside of their castle.; Their evil deeds attracted the hero known as the Blue Blaze who rose out of the lime, scaring Lor to the point of fainting. Attempting to stop the Trustees' plot, he was held at gun point by Lara. She drove him into Borsia to give the hero a show of the Trustees' powers. Using a special hate ray, she caused Borsia's greatest speaker to break out into an anti-Gratzia tirade, hoping to push the two countries to war.; With their plot revealed, Lara forced the Blue Blaze to return to the Trustees' castle to be eliminated. The Blue Blaze defended himself; however, the Trustees' minions piled onto the hero, and Dr. Vortex attempted to kill them all by detonating his lab. Only the Blaze survived and was chained to a wall. Seeking to kill the hero still, Vortex allowed one last cigarette; however, the Blue Blaze tricked him into allowing him to activate his blue flame, allowing the Blaze to break free. Then he grabbed Vortex and forced him into the limp pit to a fitting death.; With the hate ray destroyed, hostilities between the two nations sorted itself out and without their leader the Trustees disbanded. Weasel was possibly killed in the lab explosion; the fate of Lor and Lara remain unrevealed.

They are A.I.M.'s own team of superheroes.; U.S.Avengers joined forces with the main Avengers team and the Avengers Unity Division due to a global crisis caused by a cosmic contest between two Elders of the Universe, the Grandmaster and the Challenger; a game during which the Earth was teleported away from the Solar System. Most of the world's heroes were placed in stasis, including Squirrel Girl and Enigma. Enigma was freed from stasis when Red Wolf was abducted and taken to the Grandmaster's Cosmic Game Room. During a fight with a resurrected Hulk, Enigma's Enigma Suit was rendered inoperable, and Red Hulk was depowered.; Near the conflict's end, Citizen V saw himself forced to switch off his regulator headband and use his powers to help keep a device named the World-Engine running, since it maintained the Earth's conditions and prevented the planet from crumbling. After Quicksilver's actions freed the heroes still in stasis, Squirrel joined Cannonball and many other heroes in fighting the Challenger and were eventually successful in defeating him. Bobby's actions with the World-Engine tentatively took off many years off his life, so he decided to dissolve the U.S.Avengers and return to his roots since he didn't know how much he had left.

+Reality: Earth-19529
+Equipment: Iron Man Armor, War Machine Armor, variations of the Iron Man Armor
+History:
+After the Super-Human Registration Act was carried out by Secretary of Defense Tony Stark, the U.S.Avengers were formed to enforce the law and apprehend super-humans that refused to register with the government. The team was lead by Stark himself. They continually clashed with Captain America's Avengers who opposed state control over super-humans. During one of these clashes which resulted when the U.S.Avengers tried to apprehend Spider-Man, Parker disarmed the U.S.Avengers by activating a fail-safe to their armored suits, correctly guessing that Tony installed one out of his mistrust of others. Tony himself wasn't there physically and instead was using a sophisticated hologram. Before dissipating the hologram, Stark made it clear he would not cease until Parker and all super-humans are either registered or arrested.; What became of the U.S.Avengers afterward is unknown. It's likely that its members were among the many superheroes who were left "dead or missing" following Doctor Doom's takeover of the planet.

Helicarrier being very damaged, Stark Tower became the headquarters for the team.; By the end of their quest, the heroes used the M'kraan Crystal and the Muonic Inducer to weaken Doom, who stole Odin's power. After Doom's defeat, Odin recovered his powers and teleported Doom for his punishment. Nick Fury decided to keep the Ultimate Alliance permanently to quickly respond to any new threats to the world.; Years later, the Alliance helped Nick Fury during his unsanctioned secret war in Latveria. One year later, the Ultimate Alliance was torn into two factions: the Pro-Registration and the Anti-Registration because of the Superhuman Registration Act, which caused the Civil War. The war ended when the nanite Fold tried to take over the world. Working together, the Ultimate Alliance was able to defeat the Fold.

+Unable to leave their own world due to their extremely fragile bodies, an alien race of super-scientists known as the Serayn created a group of five energy beings which they could send to other planets in order to learn everything they could about other races. They also created an artificial intelligence program called Azazel to control the energy beings' spaceship.; The energy beings, who became known as the Undying, were created with the ability to meld their energy field with the mind of any living creature. Once an Undying gained control of a host body, it could only be released by the host's death, after which the Undying fed off of the victim's final energy released in its death throes. The Undying were also created with no sense of right or wrong, and they ultimately turned on their creators to satiate their unquenchable thirst for death. After a thousand years, the Serayn were annihilated.; For millions of years, the Undying roamed the universe, devouring the death energies of a multitude of lifeforms. Growing bored of this, the Undying started a competition, aided and judged by Azazel, in which whoever killed the most lifeforms won. Each match would last up to ten thousand years or until all life on a given planet was destroyed.; The Undying`s ship eventually landed on Earth. Semijan possessed the mutant named Randall Shire, a mutant with the ability to project his emotions to nearby people whenever he spoke. Semijan`s presence boosted Shire`s power to astonishing levels, causing anyone who heard his voice to become his slave. Using Shire, Semijan planned to conquer the world and win the contest. However, Azazel wanted to level the playing field by using Aentaros as Semijan`s executioner, but the mutant hero Cable intervened during one of Aentaros' attempts to kill the Semijan-possessed Shire.; Attempting revenge, Aentaros possessed a number of people in order to battle Cable directly, namely the mutant mercenary Blockade, Cable`s associate, Irene Merryweather, and Cable's former partner Domino. Each time, Aentaros was thwarted by Cable.; Cable then located the Undying's lair in the Sinai desert, and with Shire's former bodyguard Wall, and his then-teammates from the X-Men, Phoenix and the Beast, he fought the Undying. Shire`s former assistant Key managed to defeat the Undying by reprogramming Azazel to only allow the Undying to possess the bodies of common cockroaches.

+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+Notes: The Ultimates are styled after Wildstorm's The Authority, in which the series was created by Bryan Hitch with Warren Ellis, and Mark Millar wrote the later half of the series following after Ellis' run.
+Trivia: The Ultimates are Earth 1610's equivalent of the Avengers (Earth-616).; Ultimates and Ultimates 2 writer Mark Millar has claimed Marvel initially had no interest in bringing the Avengers to the Ultimate Universe, regarding the team as a dead franchise. Because of this, when Millar vouched for an adaptation of the Avengers into the Ultimate line, they were called "Ultimates" instead. However, then-Avengers Vol 3 writer Kurt Busiek has stated it was him who asked Marvel not to call the book "Ultimate Avengers," since doing so would carry the connotation the new book was "the cool new thing" and an "improvement on that old uncool existing book."; Ultimates and Ultimates 2 served as the prime inspiration/influence on the Marvel Cinematic Universe version of the Avengers (Earth-199999).
+History:
+The Ultimates are an elite group of superhumans created when the President of the United States approved a new defense budget to combat the growing risk of the U.S. being attacked by supervillains. General Nicholas Fury was chosen as the liaison between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the new group. He often acted as the group's leader.; The first members were Hank Pym (Giant-Man), his wife Janet (Wasp), and Tony Stark (Iron Man). Bruce Banner was made the new science director, attempting to duplicate the super soldier serum. Finding the body of Captain America, they examined it hoping to at least gain a sample of the serum; instead, Steve Rogers was revived. They also found a strange man claiming to be the Norse thunder god. Thor agreed to join the team, but only if the President would triple the funds allocated to environmental issues in the budget.; The team later enter their first mission in battling an enraged Hulk in New York City, and successfully subdued him. Later the former members of the Brotherhood of Mutants, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver joined in the ranks of the Ultimates along with Black Widow. The team found themselves in humanity's old war against the alien race, the Chitauri, in which they successfully save the Earth and the Solar System from a Chitauri super-bomb. After the defeat of the Chitauri, the Ultimates are immediately praised as heroes to the world.; ===Superhuman War===; Despite being declared as national celebrities following a year after the defeat of the Chitauri, the Ultimates had been serving the United States government as part of its "police" force in the War on Terror, thus alienating the entire international community, particularly in teaming up with the European Super-Soldier Initiative to invade a Middle Eastern nation suspected for possessing nuclear weapons. Furthermore, the super-soldier Reserves was created with the Ultimates, causing a sharp criticism for possibly violating superhuman test ban treaties. The team also suffered internal conflicts and problems: the alienation of Hank Pym, Janet's dissatisfied marital relationship with an "old" mind like Captain America, Bruce Banner's identity as the Hulk revealed to the public and was sentenced to be killed but only to then escape, and Thor being labeled as a insane person and then imprisoned by his own teammates.; It is then revealed that the cause of the ruination of Hulk and Thor was due to a traitor among the Ultimates, the Black Widow, who infiltrated and betrayed the group in order to leave the American nation open to attack from the Liberators. In doing so to further cripple the Ultimates from within, Hawkeye's family was murdered and Captain America was framed for the crime. Immediately afterword, the Liberators quickly damaged the Triskelion, killed the Reserves and captured almost all of America's heroes and the Ultimates, save for the Wasp. Thanks to her ability to move undetected, the Ultimates were able to escape and counterattack against the Liberators.; After their battle with the Liberators, the Ultimates, having experienced that working with the U.S. government and its resulted upbringing was not worth fighting for, decided to leave S.H.I.E.L.D., and continued to work as a independent superhero team instead.; ===Death of the Scarlet Witch===; Later the now-independent superhero team later gained new members including a more successful Valkyrie of the Defenders and Black Panther (who was revealed to be Steve Rogers). The team was manipulated and almost replaced by Hank Pym's Ultron robot which was obsessed with Scarlet Witch, who was killed by the machine out of jealousy. The Ultimates, with the help of Pym, Wolverine, and Ka-Zar stopped and destroyed Ultron but at the apparent cost of Quicksilver's life which shocked and angered his father Magneto. Unknown to all participating parties, Doctor Doom orchestrated the entire events for his own ambitions.; ===Ultimatum===; Enraged by the death of his son, Magneto dedicated himself to the utter annihilation of the human race, whilst being manipulated by Doctor Doom, a fact of which he was unaware. His genocidal quest resulted in the Ultimatum event, caused by Magneto's reversal of the Earth's magnetic poles. After New York City was engulfed by the Ultimatum Wave tsunami, many of the Ultimate members were separated from each other. Wasp was later discovered dead, her body partially devoured by Blob. In retaliation, Hank Pym bit off the cannibal's head. Captain America was thrown into a coma by the destructive tsunami and was on the verge of death, but his soul, along with Valkyrie's, was saved by Thor in the spirit world of the afterlife. However, the thunder god perished in his efforts against Hela's undead army.; After Captain America awoke from his coma, the Ultimates then arrived at the Triskelion to stop a horde of Jamie Madrox's duplicates, acting as suicide bombers, from damaging the facility. Hank Pym gathered all the Madroxs in his giant form and brought them out to sea, where he allowed himself to be blown up with them. Captain America later ordered the remaining Ultimates to gather any remaining heroes to battle Magneto, who wielded Thor's hammer at his citadel. Together with members of the X-Men, the Ultimates fought against Magneto until he was killed by Cyclops. After this the Ultimates and the other heroes destroyed Magneto's citadel.; After the events of Ultimatum, the Ultimates received an influx of new members and were renamed the New Ultimates.; ===New Ultimates===; The New Ultimates' first show of heroics was on a night eight months after Magneto's attack, when Iron Man was with Hawkeye, discussing the changes after Ultimatum. Tony made it very clear that he had lost practically everything because of Ultimatum. Suddenly, the Defenders, a teenage wannabe superhero team arrived, but this time as villains, possessing actual superpowers. As the rest of team came to aid Iron Man and Hawkeye in the fight, the Defenders left with what they came for: Mjolnir. This allowed Loki to teleport back to Earth to resume his chaos. Carol Danvers revealed to Tony that she had one of the Defenders, Hellstorm, working undercover.; At the same time, Captain America went to talk with Valkyrie about the Defenders. He demanded that Valkyrie leave the team, because he was aware that she knew more about the Defenders than any of the other team members. He feared that she was a traitor, like Black Widow. She went on to escape by throwing herself through a window. Later Hawkeye discovered that Tony and Carol were in a relationship when he spotted them having sexual relations. After that, the Enchantress manipulated Zarda, Carol Danvers, and Valkyrie to fight against the other members of the team. In this event Iron man´s armor was destroyed, Hawkeye was shot, and Captain America´s shield was destroyed.; Hawkeye, Captain America, and Iron Man were later seen captured by Loki's hordes. It was then revealed that Danvers was never under the direct control of the Enchantress, as she had night vision contact lenses, which brought her to her senses. She freed Hawkeye, which led to the rest of the team escaping as well when the Black Panther freed Captain America and Shanna and Ka-Zar break out Iron Man. Zarda and Valkyrie remained under Loki's magical control. Later on, the other members of the New Ultimates led an assault on Loki, in which Hawkeye killed Amora, freeing Zarda and Valkyrie of Loki's influence. Valkyrie attacks Loki, only to be killed by him. This then leads to Thor being able to leave the afterlife, vowing that blood shall be spilled because of his brother's actions. After defeating Zarda, Thor started attacking the rest of the New Ultimates in rage.; Eventually after a combined assault by the entire team and the use of Iron Man's Hulkbuster Armour, Thor was subdued. Loki attempted to kill Thor, but Valkyrie returned from the after-life and murdered Loki. She requested Thor to stay and defend Earth.; ===Avengers vs. New Ultimates===; Looking to stop the kidnapping of an experimental super-soldier, the New Ultimates were sent to apprehend Nick Fury, who was acting as leader of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s black ops kill squad "The Avengers", and was believed to be responsible for smuggling super-soldiers. However, the investigation became more complicated when Tyrone Cash, who also has been selling S.H.I.E.L.D. secrets, testified that he was allegedly working for Carol Danvers, who was believed by Fury to be the one behind the weapons sale. This pits the two teams against each other in New York, and in the chaos of the fight the Punisher accidentally shot Spider-Man. The Avengers are eventually defeated, but Gregory Stark, who has become acting Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. after Carol Danvers was hit by a car, was in fact responsible for pitting the Ultimates and Avengers against each other, and smuggling the super-soldiers for pro-democratic rebels in rogue states, in order to create his vision of a new world order.; The New Ultimates and the Avengers teamed up and faced Gregory and his forces, in which Iron Man disabled Gregory's nanotech with a EMP, thus allowing Thor to fatally fry him with a lighting bolt. In the aftermath, Fury returned as director of S.H.I.E.L.D.; ===Reinstatement===; The Ultimates were reinstated as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s primary task force with Thor, Iron Man, Hawkeye and Spider-Woman as its core roster and Nick Fury leading.; Reed Richards, having gone apparently insane and calling himself the Maker, returned to Earth and founded an organization called the Children of Tomorrow, a group of evolved humans with the aim of dominating the world, building their base called the Dome. In the Dome's interior time passes at an accelerated rate compared to the outside world. Over 900 years have been and gone inside the Dome, so their inhabitants evolved to perfect super-humans.; The EUSS attacked the Dome with Captain Britain, Captain Spain and Captain France along with Thor. The heroes were subdued by the Children and some of them killed, draining their powers. After examining Thor, Richards sent the Children for the source of power of Thor, leading them to attacking Asgard. After killing every Asgardian God, the Children drained the power of Yggdrasil, leaving Thor powerless. After Iron Man rescued Thor, he provided Odinson with a upgraded version of his Super-Soldier armor, with which Thor teleported to the Dome in search of vengeance. There, he rescued Captain Britain, but was defeated by the Children, and Reed Richards, and was released on condition of delivering a message.; Fury tried to take down the Children using his full armament, but failed to destroy Richards' Dome. Days later the Falcon went in to do recon, where he was surprised by Richards, who explained his plans to Falcon.; After S.H.I.E.L.D. convinced Zorn and the Hulk to attack the Children (but the latter persuaded the two to help them), the Maker deployed an anti-matter attack on Washington, D.C., killing the President, his Cabinet and the members of Congress. Only the Secretary of Energy survived, and he became the next President and activated the Winter Protocols. These "Protocols" forced the Ultimates to be handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. Only Tony Stark and Thor managed to escape. Tony contacted the new President to make a plan against the Children, in which Stark was provided as a prisoner for the Children to seal a pact of peace.; When Richards was about to vivisect Stark, Tony's self-conscious technology interfacer brain tumor named Anthony convinced the City to rebel against the Maker, because of his master's counter-evolutionary acts of war, and allowed Anthony to create a giant Iron Man Armor and use it against Richards, to become the new leader of the Children. Richards defended himself using a Giant-Man serum on the Hulk, but he was finally defeated by Susan Storm and was handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D.; ===Divided We Fall, United We Stand===; The Ultimates fought numerous rebels who tried to take over numerous states in the wake of the Nimrod invasion, with the return of Captain America to the team. After disarming the New Republic of Texas and making it part of the United States once more, the Ultimates continued to protect innocents from attacks by rebels, particularly the paramilitary group called Hydra.; Hydra, led by Modi, Thor's lost son, attacked Project Pegasus in Wyoming with the ultimate objective of conquering the country. Along with numerous allies and S.H.I.E.L.D., the Ultimates managed to defeat Hydra and Modi, who had to be killed by Thor, and reunited the shattered country.; ===Ultimates Disassembled===; During a meeting, in which Susan Storm informed S.H.I.E.L.D. about the Infinity Gems she and Thor had been gathering, the mysterious Kang freed both Hulk and Reed Richards from the Triskelion, stole the Gems and formed from them and Quicksilver the Dark Ultimates. The Ultimates barely escaped, but Captain America decided to be left behind in order to stop the villains, although he was defeated.; While Reed Richards was remolding the world to his shape, Thor faced the Hulk and was defeated, and Hawkeye unsuccessfully tried to rescue Captain America, only to be defeated by Kang. Stark started working, in one of his secret warehouses, on a way to stop Richards, Anthony unsuccessfully tried to remove an encrypted code from Stark's armors, and Tony created a gauntlet to control the Power Gem. Stark was attacked by Quicksilver, who came to collect the latest discovery of the Dark Ultimates, that one of the remaining gems was inside Tony Stark's brain. The Maker performed a surgery on Stark's brain while his H.E.R.B.I.E. Trons were trying to reach the Earth's core in order to acquire the final gem. Richards finally got the penultimate gem, and left Tony Stark to die. Fortunately, Stark's consciousness was revealed to have survived electronically, and he managed to hack a H.E.R.B.I.E. Tron in order to use it to free the captive Ultimates from the Negative Zone.; The Ultimates finally confronted an out-numbered Reed Richards along with the Howling Commandos, but the Maker's cavalry arrived in the form of Kang wielding the final gem, who also revealed herself as being the Susan Storm from a near future. During a furious battle against Richards and his Ultimates, Stark managed to acquire the Infinity Gems and depower the Maker. Tony first used the gems to revive his corpse and transfer his consciousness back to his body. When he was about to face Richards, an immense flux of energy echoed through time and space and the Gems were destroyed. Kang stated that what she tried to prevent just happened, and she left stating she would try to go back further in time.; Unknown to them, the flux of energy had brought a powerful being known as Galactus from another universe to this one, and it started approaching Earth.; ===Cataclysm===; When Galactus finally arrived to Earth, he appeared in New Jersey and destroyed it. After S.H.I.E.L.D.'s aircraft failed to destroy the entity, the Ultimates were called to deal with the situation. They were easily overpowered by him as Iron Man performed some readings on Galactus' energy signature and discovered it wasn't from this universe.; Iron Man discovered the entity came from the same universe a Peter Parker temporarily came from months ago, Earth-616. The Ultimates decided to use a portal recovered from a visitor from Earth-616 to go there and ask for help to their Reed Richards, as suggested by the visitor. Before they could decide who would go, Reed Richards appeared and recommended to put their differences aside and let him go, as he could access to the other Richards' files in case he wasn't available to help them at the moment. The Ultimates let Richards go, with the condition of being accompanied by Miles Morales. Both heroes managed to arrive to Earth-616, extract the information needed and return.; After accidentally revealing themselves to Galactus, the cosmic being started approaching the Triskelion. To give S.H.I.E.L.D. the time necessary to move away, Steve used a jet to fly near Galactus and distract him. Captain America directed the jet towards Galactus' face and was last seen abandoning it before it crashed, however his fate remain unknown. The plan to defeat was carried out with the help of Kitty Pryde, using Hank Pym's serum she would grow to a giant size and use her phasing powers to destroy Galactus' Elemental Converter as Reed Richards activated a portal to the Negative Zone where Galactus was exiled. However, Thor was also left stranded in the Negative Zone as he had to push Galactus in order for the cosmic entity to enter to the portal against its will, but the Earth was ultimately saved.; In the wake of the near-destruction of Earth, and finding himself without Thor or Captain America, Stark decided to disband the Ultimates. But Spider-Woman and other young heroes continued the legacy of this team in the form of the Young Ultimates.; ===Return===; Following the destruction of the entirety of Earth-1610, the original members of the Ultimates (Captain America, Giant-Man, Hulk, Iron Man, and Wasp) were brought back to life by the Maker when he rewrote the Multiverse in order to merge all realities into one to help Eternity fight the First Firmament. When the Ultimates from the Prime Earth arrived on Counter-Earth and confronted him for his actions, which were actually giving the First Firmament the upper hand against Eternity, the Maker ordered his Ultimates to attack them. Eventually, the members of both teams realized they shouldn't be fighting each other and confronted the Maker, who proceeded to kill Captain America for disobeying his commands. After defeating the Maker, the teams worked together to help Eternity gain the strength to finally defeat the First Firmament. Following that, the remaining members of the Ultimates decided to travel the Multiverse to hunt down the Maker.; Since then, Earth-1610 had been returned in its entirety. The Ultimates, or at least a portion of them, returned to their native universe. They were seen assisting Spider-Man apprehend the Green Goblin.

+History:
+The mutant extremist agent Cable created the Underground movement to oppose the activities of the Weapon X Program, which performed dehumanizing experimentations on mutants and weaponized their abilities for their interests. Following reports of missing mutants and of a secret extermination camp named Neverland, Cable took direct action against Weapon X by inciting a revolt against it. His core team counted with Domino, Meltdown, Blaquesmith and the mysterious Maverick. In their investigations, they learned that the Weapon X operative Mesmero manipulated the public opinion about the atrocities that took place in Neverland. Cable chose to surprise Weapon X and his first target was director Malcolm Colcord.; They kept track of Mesmero while Domino and Maverick hunted mutant militants from Neverland, Wildside and Reaper, who had been performing cruel attacks on humans. This could be related to Weapon X's publicity scams to damage mutant reputation and justify their actions. Maverick brutally interrogated Wildside and Reaper, with Cable being able telepathically probe into their minds and link them to Weapon X. Before they could take action, Agent Brent Jackson raided their hideout with a squad of Weapon X agents. Jackson made a deal with Cable in order to demote Colcord. He got hold of Wildside and Reaper freely and helped Cable and the Underground infiltrate the Weapon X facility.; After revealing themselves, Underground battled Madison Jeffries's robots while Cable personally hunted Colcord. However, he was intercepted by his former ally, Kane. After a brief fight, Cable was victorious and found a self-mutilated Colcord and learned all the nefarious secrets about Neverland. Before Cable could execute Colcord, he was subdued by Jeffries. Kane had a change of heart and sacrificed himself to stop Jeffries, who escaped with Colcord. In the end, Jackson betrayed the Underground, using Cable's own telepathy to incapacitate them.; Jackson was promoted to director, and the Underground was secured by Weapon X. Unexpectedly, however, Weapon X operative Marrow went rogue and decided to free the Underground. Cable, who had been brainwashed on the intel he had on the Weapon X program, trusted Marrow with the files he had collected. Cable and the Underground were out of the picture, but Marrow and her Gene Nation used his resources to fight Weapon X, even counting with Maverick as an ally.

Green while giving a speech at a seminar. Another killed two munitions manufacturers with poison apples. After another body was pulled out of the Hudson River, officials were at a loss to explain the series of strange murders.; While out on a stroll, Steve Rogers and Bucky spotted a seemingly legless homeless man get up and run off upon hearing nearby church bells. Steve sent Bucky to follow after him. Seeing a legion of seemingly homeless people run into a nearby church, Bucky disguised himself as a panhandler to investigate further.; He was soon discovered when he failed to show the Mark of Hitler and was forced to watch as they branded an FBI agent with their swastika brand. Before they could do the same to Bucky, Captain America arrived, and in the ensuing battle, Bucky forced all the Nazi spies to stand down with a Gatling gun. Herr Snupp fled the scene, followed by Captain America and Bucky. Snupp arrived at a hidden Nazi U-Boat; however, the pair fought their way aboard and forced Snupp to flee back to the mainland. Freeing his captured fellows, they tried once more to defeat Captain America and Bucky but were beaten into submission and turned over to the authorities.

+History:
+Ultimates Vol 2 1; ===Origin===; The Ultimates originated from Captain Marvel's proposal of a proactive task force with the purpose of looking into potential threats and solve them before they could become a problem to Earth, applying nonviolent solutions whenever possible. After consulting the project with Black Panther, Captain Marvel was directed to another potential member, Blue Marvel, a hero experienced in cosmic-level threats, who in turn recommended the addition of Spectrum, a powerhouse with high-level of super hero strategy. The final proposed member was Ms. America, suggested by Spectrum due to her knowledge in cosmic territory.; ===The Outside===; One of the Ultimates' first missions involved the threat of Galactus' hunger. To solve this problem, they confronted Galactus by trapping him inside his old Incubator and used a similar process that was used to create him, but using Neutronium to accelerate it. After a flash of light and the Incubator's destruction, Galactus emerged anew with a new purpose in life, he became a lifebringer. The first planet that Galactus restored was Archeopia, which had been the very same first victim of his hunger.; During an ensuing mission to exit the Omniverse to attempt to assess any damage caused to the structure of the time by the abuse of time travel, the Ultimates encountered the Anti-Man trapped within the Neutral Zone. Blue Marvel attempted to kill him, partially in revenge for the death of his wife, but his son Kevin stopped him. Instead, the Anti-Man was rescued and the Ultimates brought him in their continuing journey. When their ship, the Abeona, was destroyed barely before reaching their objective, the Ultimates were saved by Galactus. Galactus stopped them, and returned them home after the Anti-Man reached a state of hyper-cosmic awareness, as Galactus wished for them not to see the full scope of reality, which would've been too much for them to bear.; ===Civil War II===; Soon after returning home, the Ultimates became involved in the second superhuman Civil War, provoked by the appearance of an Inhuman named Ulysses Cain with the ability to profile the future. Ms. America adamantly opposed Captain Marvel's initiative to actively use Ulysses to proactively fight crime, while the rest of the Ultimates supported her, to a certain degree. The difference of opinions led to physical conflict between the Ultimates. During this brawl, the Anti-Man escaped custody and fled. Black Panther eventually also publicly disavowed Captain Marvel's actions and joined Iron Man's faction that opposed predictive justice.; The team was terminated as a consequence of these altercations, which were reported by Philip Nelson Vogt, leader of the Troubleshooters and federal agent who was tasked to covertly monitor the Ultimates' activities.; ===Cosmic Jailer===; The members of the Ultimates were assembled once again in secrecy by Ms. America at the request of Galactus to serve as his heralds together with Anti-Man and investigate the mystery of who had chained Eternity. While Galactus was facing his own tribulations at the hands of Lord Chaos and Master Order, who went as far as merging into Logos in an attempt to become the Multiverse's new ruling cosmic being, the Ultimates were confronted by the Troubleshooters, who had grown suspicious of Black Panther and Captain Marvel's activities and followed their trail to Galactus' ship.; Troubleshooter Simon Rodstvow revealed his true form, that of a servant of Eternity's Cosmic Jailer, and revealed that Logos had turned Galactus back in a devourer, albeit one whose hunger had no limit and would only siphon all energy and life until there was only his master, Eternity's cosmic jailer, the First Firmament and embodiment of the original universe that had existed before the Multiverse. Anti-Man sacrificed himself to restore Galactus to his form of the Lifebringer, and the Troubleshooters summoned the Psi-Hawk to defeat Rodstvow. Galactus subsequently dismissed the Ultimates until he would require their services again after resting.; The team-up between the Ultimates and the Troubleshooters opened the doors to a permanent alliance in order to stop the First Firmament. The Ultimates were officially absorbed into Alpha Flight, being reinstated as an openly sanctioned team.; ===Eternity War===; As the Ultimates were helping Alpha Flight defend itself from an intermittent wave of Chitauri invaders, Galactus had them teleported to the Counter-Earth, where the Maker had used the High Evolutionary's machines to disrupt and bring down the Superflow, the space that separated universes from each other, in a foolish attempt to strengthen Eternity by merging all the universes that composed it into a single one. However, said process proved to be counterproductive, as it actually made it easier for the First Firmament to consume Eternity.; Before getting into fixing the detriment caused by the Maker, the Ultimates had to confront their namesake team from the defunct Ultimate Universe, who had been brought back to life by the Maker. Eventually, both teams realized they shouldn't be fighting each other. Following the Maker's defeat at the hands of Spectrum and the High Evolutionary, both teams turned their attention to restoring the Multiverse to its normal state. Using the nanites from his armor, Iron Man managed to interface with the High Evolutionary's technology, which had been advanced beyond its creator's understanding by the Maker. Spectrum subsequently used her powers to link the minds of both teams of Ultimates, with the combined brain power managing to control the technology and revert the Maker's endeavour.; Doing so allowed Eternity to break free from the First Firmament, giving Galactus and his Eternity Watch the chance to defeat the Aspirants and Logos. Eternity subsequently summoned the embodiments of the past Multiverses to his aid. These "Ultimate Ultimates" chained the First Firmament and took it away to another plane of existence in hopes to heal him. With Eternity rescued, Galactus and the Ultimates bid farewell, and parted their own ways.

She left him behind, going with Kuragari.; Gomurr was next visited by the spirit of the deceased Tar, who named him the next rightful proctor of the Crimson Dawn. Gomurr accepted, and he joined Archangel in his fight. In order to free Betsy from the Dawn's influence, Warren sacrificed a piece of his own life force to replace what had been given, and the couple was reunited.

+History:
+The Underground was a coalition of American superheroes and civilians assembled by Hawkeye who opposed Hydra's regime following their conquest of the United States under Captain America's leadership. They used the Pantheon's Mount in Nevada as a hideout. Other affiliated cells included humans and mutants banding together in New Tian, the mutants' sovereign nation, who opposed Emma Frost's regime, attempting at least once at Frost's life.; However, the Underground was barely scraping by, and the Mount suffered from disrepair. The Underground's attitude changed when hacker Rayshaun Lucas delivered to the group data Rick Jones gave him. The data revealed that Steve Rogers was transformed into a Hydra agent by the sentient Cosmic Cube Kobik and that Kobik was now in various pieces scattered around the world. The Iron Man A.I. proposed that the Underground retrieve Kobik's remnants, rebuild her, and use her to restore Rogers to normal. Black Widow disagreed with the plan and later left the Underground to carry out her own plan of assassinating Rogers following the destruction of Las Vegas, which the Underground tended to. Widow was joined by the Champions on the condition that they didn't kill anyone. At the same time, a team was put together by the Underground to retrieve Kobik's remnants from around the world.; The retrieval team traveled to various locations around the world in search of Kobik's remnants. However, the team was only able to find two remnants before returning to the Mount to rest and to help heal Hercules' injuries. Shortly after the team returned, Hydra led by Steve Rogers began attacking the Mount with Hydra Helicarriers and members of Hydra's Avengers. Ant-Man, out of guilt, confessed to be being a mole for Hydra. He revealed that Hydra had his daughter Cassie and was using her safety as a bargaining trip to make him to its bidding. Hydra finally broke into the Mount when Rogers sent in the newly resurrected Hulk. The Underground and the civilians that there staying at the Mount managed to flee thanks to the sacrifice of the A.I.vengers, but the Iron Man A.I. was accidentally left behind. After being immobilized by Steve Rogers and a dying Hulk, the A.I. self-destructed his armor, destroying the Mount and nearly killed Rogers if weren't for the intervention of Madame Hydra.; Following the loss of the Mount, the Underground became more demoralized after learning of the death of Black Widow. That was when Sam Wilson, once again taking up the mantle of Captain America, told the Underground that it wasn't over yet. After giving a rousing speech, the Underground became motivated to continue the fight against Hydra. After liberating New Attilan from Hydra's occupation, the Inhuman Barf produced a Cosmic Cube fragment for the heroes.; After determining the the fragment had reality warping power, Sam Wilson flew miles into the air with the fragment so he could use its power to remove the Planetary Defense Shield surrounding Earth to free those trapped on the outside of it while Iron Man and Hawkeye break into Sin's and Crossbones' super-prison to free the prisoners. However, Wilson was shot out of the air by a Hydra pilot and fell into the ocean. He eventually came out of the water alive and well, and his wish for the Defense Shield to vanish came true to an extent because it awakened Quasar from her coma, and she managed to destroy the Defense Shield. During the attack on the super-prison, Maria Hill snuck in and killed Blackout to remove the Darkforce barrier around Manhattan. With the Defense Shield and Darkforce dome gone, the heroes that were trapped by the barrier united with the Underground to stage a final attack on Hydra in Washington, D.C..; The Underground and its allies furiously fought against Hydra's forces, High Council, and Avengers before facing off with Steve Rogers himself wearing armor powered by the Cosmic Cube fragments Hydra recovered. Rogers easily overwhelmed the heroes, but he was then tricked by Sam Wilson into accepting the last fragment when secretly contained a shrunken Ant-Man and Winter Soldier. Winter Soldier called out to Kobik in her own mindscape, allowing him to pull her back into the physical world as well as the true Steve Rogers. The true Steve defeated the Hydra Steve in a fight, ending Hydra's rule of the United States, which led to the Underground's disbandment.

+History:
+On Earth-93068, the humanity prevailed in a long and costly war against the Badoon, as mutants and humans came to form a mutual defence of their world. After the war's end, the Uncanny Avengers were led by Magneto and Jean Grey.; On the anniversary day of the victory, the Uncanny Avengers came after a team of Five Wolverines who appeared in New York City, believing them to be clones. The Wolverines opened their minds to Jean, showing that they came from different realities to warn about Onslaught posing a threat to their world. They were taken to the Uncanny Avengers Tower, where the victory anniversary celebrations were taking place.; It was then found that Onslaught was not hiding in any one mind, but in almost every mind of the planet, having already taken over over billions of humans and superhumans alike. Jean Grey telepathically ordered Spider-Man to initiate the Badoon Protocols: in the event of the Badoon return or a similar extinction-level event, the magic users would create portals to rapidly evacuate the civilian population to a safe world through the Nexus of All Realities. As Onslaught revealed itself, Jean and Magnus went forward to confront it, only for both of them to be effortlessly obliterated. The Wolverines battled the possessed heroes of Earth-93068 until Zombie Wolverine of Earth-2149 decided to use his Hunger Virus as a weapon, creating a horde of zombies that attacked and bit Onslaught-possessed heroes, including Captain American and Marvel. With the aid of Phoenix-80777, Magik, Doctor Strange and others were able to evacuate over a billion people in a matter of minutes before their entire planet was destroyed.

+Trivia: The Ultimates are named after an idea that Tony had when he was five years old, an idea to fix the world.; Unlike their Earth-1610 counterparts, the Ultimates have a rallying cry reminiscent of the Avengers from Earth-616. However, this rallying cry evolved as Ultimates Vol 3 progressed. Initially, it was "Ultimates... Attack!" Then, it became "Ultimates... Assemble!" Finally, it became "Ultimates... Unite!"
+History:
+===Fix the World: Ultimates 1.0===; Awareness of the corruption of his world's intended history due to the time-travelling, global interference orchestrated by the Maker led Tony Stark, the invincible Iron Lad, to embark on a quest to rectify Earth with the assistance of Doom, an alternate version of the Maker himself. Having allied himself with Stark's father Iron Man, Doom had escaped the Maker's City with the Immortus Engine, a time machine, after trapping the villain inside of it for two years in accelerate time. The world was left under the utter control of the Maker's Council. To oppose the tyrants, share the truth with the people, and prepare for the Maker's return, Iron Lad proposed the creation of a network of individuals who could be potential super heroes, the Ultimates.; Using the Immortus Engine, Stark and Doom traveled decades back in the past to collect the legendary super-soldier Captain America, who had been trapped in ice following World War II before the Maker's conquest. In their journey, the duo also infiltrated the dungeon prisons of Asgard, where the God of Thunder, Thor, was held prisoner by warden Sif after the Maker had instated the mischievous Loki as the cruel All-Father of the Ten Realms. From the Maker's arsenal, in Latveria, the Ultimates retrieved catalysts that could transform into super heroes those suitable for the rightful duty. However, Captain Britain, one of the leaders selected by the Maker intercepted them, gravely wounding Thor. The group retreated to initiate project Ultimates 1.0, to distribute packages containing the catalysts to potential super heroes.; The Council countered Stark, by sending an attack to destroy Stark Tower, which forced the Ultimates to travel forward six months in time. Almost no hero emerged in the time that had passed, as the plan failed to consider the human factor. Exceptions were the transformations of Spider-Man, who acted in New York City, and convict Luke Cage, who chose to stay incarcerated to bring upon a revolt revolution from within the prison system. Broken free from his frigid trap, Captain America alerted Iron Lad that heroes are not supposed to be made from a designed experiment, but through real inspiration. As such, Iron Lad conceived Ultimates 2.0 as a direct and personal approach to recruitment. One of their recruits was Jim Hammond, the ever-burning Human Torch who worked with Captain America during times of war. His robotic body was collected from a Damage Control warehouse guarded by Agents of H.A.N.D., the Maker's secret police.; ===Rescue Mission: Ultimates 2.0===; The Ultimates focused on addressing those who rejected the life of super heroism. In an encounter, they approached the endearing Janet Van Dyne and the coward Hank Pym, a married couple of exterminators, in New Jersey. Pym had secretly rejected and hid the package that would transform them into the winsome Wasp and the gargantuan Giant-Man. Upon being attacked by Captain Britain and his Black Crusade, the Ultimates were joined by the Pyms and emerged triumphant, engraving the resistance's logo on the ground through Giant-Man's large footprint. The world was then introduced to their protectors. In their crusade against villainy, the Ultimates raided the White House, occupied by the resourceful ultra-entrepreneur Midas. Within its walls, the cosmic powerhouse America was kept captive as a source of energy and profit for Midas. After brutally paralyzing the gold-armored capitalist, the Ultimates departed with America from the burning White House.; On Monster Island, the Ultimates assessed the highly radioactive archipelago in the Pacific that had been afflicted by Gamma Radiation tests carried out by Dr. Bruce Banner, one of the Maker's generals, the malignant Hulk. Amidst dangerous gamma-mutated creatures, the team encountered their protector, Lejori Joena Zakaria, a sensational She-Hulk. Her people struggled with the painful radioactivity brought by the Hulk, contrary to Iron Lad's idealized group of gamma-enhanced strongmen. Zakaria agreed to join the Ultimates as part of a deal for Iron Lad to restore Monster Island from the nuclear damage. When Roxxon factories were destroyed in different locations, Iron Lad identified the technology of the Trick Arrows he had sent for Clint Barton to become the migthy marksman Hawkeye. Barton had rejected the equipment, prompting Captain America to investigate who had assumed his gear. In a refinery, he stumbled upon Charli Ramsey, a spirituous Lakota who claimed the name Hawkeye and joined the Ultimates after dealing with a Roxxon Cleanup Crew alongside the star-spangled hero.; In November, after cracking the Maker's Council's private communications system, Iron Lad discovered a Damage Control black site where super-powered prisoners were being held for execution. He assembled the entire Ultimates network for a rescue mission. Upon breaking the locked vault, they arrived on the mystical city of K'un-Lun, where they were ambushed by the Hulk and his gamma-enhanced Immortal Weapons, who had orchestrated the ruse. The Council member unleashed his incredible rage and strength upon the Ultimates, who resisted surrender. The encounter proved fatal as the team was massacred by the Hulk and his generals. Refusing to accept the tragic fate, Doom, who had stayed behind to monitor them aboard the Triskelion, used the Immortus Engine to travel in time to rewrite the outcome, arriving before their deaths and rescuing them. Iron Lad was still mortally wounded and had to be put in temporal stasis for treatment.; The Ultimates continued their operations against cruelty all over the globe. Doom identified an imminent arrival of time travelers and dispatched the team to the arrival site believing the Maker could surface. Instead, they were met by the Guardians of the Galaxy, cosmic heroes from the 61st century, from which the amnesiac America had been a part of. They explained that the Maker's actions to that doomed era were irreversible, but America refused to abandon the mission and stayed. She was given a communication device to summon the Guardians if needed. While dismantling the operations of the fascistic Red Skulls, the Ultimates collected the preserved corpse of the avenging son Namor, providing it with a decent funeral at the sea. During the mission, the leader of the Skulls' was revealed to be Captain America's former sidekick, Bucky.; ===All Power to the People: Ultimates 3.0===; Upon Iron Lad's recovery through the use of the Immortus Engine to temporally freeze his condition, the Ultimates confronted Doom about his reckless rescue to save their lives, and ultimately expressed their forgiveness. To ignite revolution among the common people, Iron Lad designed Ultimates 3.0, inspiring anyone to revolt against the Maker through the Ultimates Network, a safe online channel for the organization of social movements. Cage joined them to physically and culturally train the incarcerated, assembling the Avengers. Thor, on the other hand, departed to other realms and left the group, waging war alongside Sif and amassing a godly army. The network expanded immensely with the initiative, with uncountable people being encouraged to unite against tyranny and fix the world through it.; The C.E.O. of Roxxon, Rex Bonhurts, gathered other unscrupulous industrialists to oppose the Ultimates, who continued attacking their facilities. One of the contacted was Emma Frost, the White Queen of the Hellfire Club led by Council member Emmanuel da Costa, the Black King. She dispatched two twin students of her Frost's School for Wayward Youngsters, Wanda and Pietro, against the Ultimates during one of the raids. The siblings were subdued and put under the Ultimates' custody. Following evidence of the reincarnation of the immortal Iron Fist, Shen Qi, in Tibet, the Ultimates went to his location before the Hulk could intercept him. The Immortal Weapon known Uranium Brother #235 had been sent to capture the legendary martial artist. The Ultimates opposed him, emerging victorious as She-Hulk executed the monstrous villain.; ===Uprising: World War III===; Almost two years after the Maker's imprisonment, the Ultimates prepared for his return. Iron Lad broadcast a message to the entire planet, exposing details of their operation and upcoming plans of resisting him. He recruited Spider-Man to join the Ultimates in Latveria, where the City was supposed to open up. The Council reacted as well, with Captain Britain leading hordes of warriors from Otherworld to violently destroy uprisings. Nick Fury, director of H.A.N.D., deployed a massive fleet of Helicarriers to stop the Ultimates, by shutting down their network. Amidst combat, as the Ultimates were subdued, the Wasp revealed her status as an infiltrated agent for Fury. In fact, she had tricked Fury into recruiting her under guidance of the mysterious Vision. Having been sent decades in the past by Stark, Jim Hammond operated from the shadows for long years, planting seeds for their cause, recruiting heroes, operating the Ultimates Network, and evolving into the Vision. A pivotal new addition to the Ultimates was Jim Rhodes, pilot of the Anti-War Machine. By corrupting H.A.N.D.'s systems, the Vision obliterated the Helicarriers, destroyed Fury, and effectively ended his reactionary police organization.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: A kill-mutants game organized by Selene and Gamesmaster
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The Upstarts were part of a secret competition founded by Selene, the Black Queen of the Hellfire Club, who wanted to test potential members for her own Inner Circle. Overseen by the Gamesmaster, the Upstarts would each try to kill as many mutants as possible and the Gamesmaster would award points based on the mutant's power, skills, and general significance in the world. At times he would raise the value of certain mutants so that the Upstarts would all try to assassinate them. At other times Gamesmaster would also reward the death of non-mutants. To gain entry to the Upstarts competition the requirement was to kill a member of the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club, but later members were not required to do so; usually the Gamesmaster claimed that their participation would make the game more interesting. The member with the most points at the end of the competition would win "the prize". It was never explicitly stated what the prize was, but it was inferred that the winner would gain control over the other contestants as well as gain a lot of power and influence.; Shinobi Shaw took the early lead by killing his father Sebastian Shaw. He celebrated with a group of contestants who were never seen again afterward. The time-traveler Trevor Fitzroy gained membership with the deaths of Donald Pierce and the Reavers. He demanded the ring that signified leadership of the Upstarts from Shaw, but Shaw refused, claiming that he still had more points. Fitzroy would go on to kill the Hellions, but Fabian Cortez applied for membership and immediately took first place in the competition for the death of Magneto.; The German twins Fenris tried to join the competition and gain an advantage by resurrecting Omega Red. Their plan failed though and they named only probational members by the Gamesmaster. Graydon Creed joined as well, using the moniker Tribune, and despite not succeeding killing anyone, the Gamesmaster gave him full membership. Trevor Fitzroy had met a woman in the future, named Sienna Blaze, who had told him where she would be one day. Fitzroy knew that Blaze had incredible mutant powers and told her that the Gamesmaster invited her to join the Upstarts.; Over the next few months, the Upstarts would try to kill as many mutants and other important people (like Moira MacTaggert) as possible, but with no success. In an attempt to reinvigorate the competition, the Gamesmaster started the Younghunt: the new targets were all surviving members of the New Mutants and Hellions. Instead of killing them, the Gamesmaster demanded that they should capture the targets. This competition brought the Upstarts into conflict with the New Warriors and X-Force. At the end of the game, the Upstarts had captured most of their targets, but Paige Guthrie convinced the Gamesmaster to play another game: instead of killing mutants, the Upstarts should try to find and train young mutants like herself. The Gamesmaster was intrigued and canceled the competition. The Upstarts disbanded shortly afterward.; Years later the Upstarts resurfaced to start the game that they created long ago. They killed members of the Nasty Boys in order to lure out Cyclops and his ragtag team of X-Men to Washington Heights. After a brief moment of words, the two groups engaged each other in battle. The X-Men gained the upperhand as the Upstarts retreated but Shinobi was left behind. Not wanting to get captured, Shaw mentioned that he wasn't going to be controlled by the Hellfire Club so he phased his hand into head and then solidified it resulting in his death.; It is revealed that the remaining members had been captured by O*N*E, which eventually led to the deaths of Siena Blaze and Trevor Fitzroy. This led to the team's disbandment.; After the return to life of Fitzroy, a new formation of the Upstarts was born, now comprehending some former members of the O-Force. Funded by the scientist Sugar Man, their objective was to hunt and kill mutants with newly awakened powers while live-streaming it on the internet.

+First appearance: Comedy Comics Vol 1 9
+Created by: Stan Lee; Ben Thompson
+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Castle Masada, Symkaria
+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+History:
+In 1940, shortly after the British and French armies evacuated Dunkirk before the advance of the Nazis, the British hero known as Citizen V returned to occupied France and assembled the V-Battalion. Along with his girlfriend Paulette Brazee, Watkins took them on many successful missions over occupied Europe and even in Germany. In 1943, Brazee infiltrated the inner circle of Nazi scientist known as Baron Heinrich Zemo, taking the codename She-Wolf and finally helped Citizen V, Captain America and Bucky to destroy the weapon Particle X-Zemo.; Heinrich vowed to get his revenge and sent an undercover operative to infiltrate the V-Battalion. Heinrich killed Citizen V in Poznan, Poland by strangling him to death. Soon after the Nazis murdered most of the original members of the V-Battalion.; Later the survivors of the V-Battalion along with other WW2 superheroes (Destroyer, Silver Scorpion and Iron Cross among others) and new members such as Dallas Riordan's paternal grandfather (an American soldier who stayed in Europe after the war) reconstituted the V-Battalion. The primary mission of this new V-Battalion was to hunt down Nazi war criminals. They operated out of a base in Symkaria.; ==Citizen V==; The V-Battalion's primary field agent usually uses the codename Citizen V after the original Citizen V. The original Citizen V was killed by Heinrich Zemo. The second Citizen V was Paulette Brazee Watkins girlfriend who later gave birth to his son John Watkins Jr and married a soldier. Presumably JJ Watkins (John Watkins Jr.) was the third Citizen V. Sometime later JJ's son John Watkins III was Citizen V and was somehow rendered comatose for five years.; Years later when Heinrich Zemo's son Helmut Zemo led the Masters of Evil he decided the group would pose as heroes to take the place of the missing Avengers and Fantastic Four who disappeared after a battle with Onslaught. The Masters of Evil became the Thunderbolts and Helmut took the name Citizen V (knowing full well his father murdered him) and falsely claimed to be the grandson of the original Citizen V. At this time Helmut did not know the V-Battalion had been reconstituted nor did he know the original Citizen V had an actual grandson.; In time Helmut's scam unraveled and he was a fugitive on the run after he nearly conquered the world. One of the people affected by the scam was the Thunderbolts liaison to the New York City's Mayor's office Dallas Riordan who lost her job. The V-Battalion had been interested in approaching Dallas as the next Citizen V even before the Thunderbolts scam and had placed an operative in the mayor's office named Miles Warbeck (Miles Warton) to keep tabs on her and the Thunderbolts. When Helmut Zemo's Citizen V first arrived on the scene the V-Battalion were suspicious of his claims to be the original's grandson but did not move against him. After Helmut's scam fell apart Roger Aubrey the Destroyer sought out Dallas Riordan and offered her a place in the V-Battalion as their operative Citizen V. Dallas's grandfather had abandoned his family in America and given his life early on in the adventures of the reconstituted V-Battalion. Dallas's father James Riordan was a police captain who had trained his daughter to be a fighter. He never joined the V-Battalion and did not want his daughter to join either but he knew the possibility existed that she would be approached to join the group so he made sure she was prepared just in case.; For months Dallas acted as Citizen V. First she worked to track down the Thunderbolts because she was furious at being fired and felt she was used by Atlas. She tracked down Helmut Zemo in Mexico and blew up his castle. Later she offered Hawkeye the chance to leave the Thunderbolts or risk her wrath. Hawkeye refused her offer and later Citizen V was knocked unconscious by a member of the Crimson Cowl's Masters of Evil who were plotting to hold the world for ransom with weather machines. When the Thunderbolts defeated the Masters of Evil, Justine Hammer the Crimson Cowl framed Dallas Riordan as the Crimson Cowl and she was sent to prison. Atlas later posed as a journalist to get into prison to see Dallas but she was broken out of jail by V-Battalion operatives. Out of jail Dallas went back to being Citizen V in the hopes of tracking down the Crimson Cowl but instead ended up embroiled in a conflict with the Secret Empire an organization at that time (unknown to Dallas or the Thunderbolts) being funded by Helmut Zemo.; Dallas at first blinded by her need for revenge against Zemo, The Thunderbolts and the Crimson Cowl refused to see how corrupt the V-Battalion's leaders the Penance Council had become. Dallas finally chose to leave the organization when she was given orders to assassinate Henry Peter Gyrich a politician who ran the Commission on Superhuman Affairs. (The V-Battalion wanted this done presumably because Gyrich at this time had been corrupted by nanites by Hydra and had used Nomad as Scourge to assassinate several people including Helmut Zemo). Dallas left to find the Thunderbolts but was abducted by the Crimson Cowl. The battle with the Cowl left Dallas Riordan crippled for many many months.; Although Scourge had beheaded Helmut Zemo neither knew that Helmut's ally Techno had placed a bio-modem in Helmut's body and that when he died Helmut's mind was sent into the comatose body of John Watkins III. For weeks Helmut pretended to be John Watkins III as Citizen V and with the V-Battalion's help gathered together the Redeemers. The Redeemers and the Thunderbolts defeated Gyrich and Helmut soon learned his father's compatriot Baron Strucker was the mastermind behind the whole affair.; While in John Watkins III's body Helmut confronted Baron Strucker and killed his daughter Andrea. During a battle with Graviton many members of the Redeemers were killed and Citizen V gathered the original Thunderbolts together to defeat Graviton. Graviton was revealed to be the pawns of aliens who were using him to conquer earth. The Thunderbolts realized that some of them would have to collapse a gravity well. Many of the Thunderbolts were sent to Counter Earth while Songbird stayed behind. The V-Battalion had tried teleporting Citizen V out during this melee and the result was that Helmut Zemo's mind ended up inside Fixer's tech pac and John Watkins III was in control of his own body again.; John Watkins would later fight the god Marduk. He also was involved in an adventure with Deadpool and Flag Smasher in Rumekistan.; There was once a mention there were 7 people who have taken the name Citizen V. The identities of six are known (John Watkins Sr, John Watkins Jr, John Watkins III, Paulette Brazee, Helmut Zemo and Dallas Riordan).; ==The Penance Council==; The V-Battalion is lead by the Penance Council. Roger Aubrey was the de facto leader of the council and while certainly not an evil man over the years some of his decisions were morally compromised, with him often nudging the group towards decisions wherein they chose expediency and protecting their secrecy over morality.; Eventually Roger Aubrey decided to quit the V-Battalion and left the group in the hands of the original Human Torch Jim Hammond.; Two other important members of the Penance Council were Elizabeth Barstow and Helmut Grueler. Elizabeth Barstow had been the golden age hero the Silver Scorpion but in modern times her keen mind was addled by Alzheimer's Disease. Helmut Grueler was 102 before he died and had been a German who did not believe in Nazi ideology during WW2 but fought for the Fatherland nevertheless.; ====The Original Penance Council (Late 1940s - 1950s)====; Angel - (Thomas Halloway); Iron Cross - (Helmut Gruler); Irene Martinez; Destroyer - (Roger Aubrey); Robert "Rebel" Ralston; Dr. Sam Sabuki; Miss America - (Madeline Joyce); Union Jack - (Brian Falsworth); Whizzer - (Robert Frank); ====Later Penance Council Members====; Bucky - (Fred Davis); Golden Girl - (Gwenny Lou Sabuki); Golden Sun - (Kenji Sabuki); Human Top - (David Mitchell); Twister - (Darren Mitchell); ====The Current Penance Council Members====; Destroyer - (Roger Aubrey); Silver Scorpion - (Elizabeth Barstow); Bucky - (Fred Davis); Nuklo - (Robert Frank Jr.); Iron Cross - (Helmut Gruler); Isadora Martinez; Topspin - (Darren Mitchell); Goldfire - (Ameiko Sabuki); ==Operations==; Piers; Eammon; Vradec; ==Special Operatives==; ====Former Special Operatives====; Citizen V - (John Watkins); She-Wolf - (Paulette Brazee); Spitfire - (Lady Jacqueline Falsworth); Citizen V (Dallas Riordan); ====Current Special Operatives====; Citizen V (John Watkins III); Miles Warton

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Valhalla, Niffleheim
+Equipment: The Valkyries wear Uru armor which protects them from harm.
+Weapons: Each of the Valkyrie carries a sword.
+Transportation: They usually transport themselves aloft on winged horses which attain an astral form with them beyond Asgard.
+Notes: Allegedly, the Valkyrior were kinswomen to Lilith.; According to Torunn Grønbekk, one of the writers of Mighty Valkyries Vol 1, the Valkyries don't require Iddun's Apples to sustain their youth, unlike the rest of the Norse Gods.; During his travels across the Western Ocean, Conan visited a "winter isle of Valkyries", though the term might be used to describe young maiden of Nordic type rather than Asgardian matters.
+History:
+<!--; ===Origins===; ... -->; ===Hyborian Age===; The Shield-Maidens of Valhalla were part of the Vanir's belief during the Hyborian Age of Conan, circa 10,000 BC.; ===Modern Age===; In the Modern Age, Brunnhilde became a member of Earth's superhero team known as the Defenders. The remaining Valkyries were killed in a war between Odin and Hela over rulership of Valhalla. Odin restored the Valkyries to life after he regained possession of Valhalla, but these Valkyries only had physical forms within Valhalla; outside it, they existed only in astral form. Valtrauta took Brunnhilde's place as the leader of the Valkyrior, and Hildegarde's sister Krista filled the role of the ninth Valkyrie, left open since Brunnhilde's departure.; By the time Malekith the Accursed waged his War of the Realms, the Valkyries had grown into an army. When Niffleheim was invaded by the queen of Muspelheim, Sindr, Thor had Loki use magic to fake his death in such a way he would still be sent to Valhalla. Once there, Thor recruited the Valkyries and the Einherjar to help fend off Sindr's forces.; During Malekith's assault on Manhattan, the Valkyries were summoned by Odin to help defend the island, having seemingly regained the ability to pass into the real world. Due to an evacuation spell gone awry, Doctor Strange accidentally teleported most of the combatants away from the fight, leaving the Valkyries to stand alone against Malekith's forces. They were all ultimately slain in battle, and Brunnhilde was the last Valkyrie to fall.; ==Powers and Abilities==; ===Powers===; The Valkyrior have inherent mystical powers allowing them to perceive supernatural phenomenon, especially to see astral spirits (ghosts) and sense when mortal beings are near death; a perception that appears as a glow around the form of a person about to die. Beyond Asgard, they appear only as shades (astral forms). They are extra-ordinary warriors wielding swords and shields and usually transport themselves aloft on winged horses which attain an astral form with them beyond Asgard.; ===Abilities===; Odin granted the Valkyrior the ability to traverse the nine realms unhindered by physical boundaries that they might ferry the spirits of the noblest warriors into Valhalla.; ===Strength level===; The Valkyrior possesses the conventional attributes of the Asgardian gods including superhuman strength (Class 40), stamina, resistance to injury and long life enchantments.

+Base of operations: New Orleans, Louisiana
+Notes: Thieves Guild; Assassins Guild
+History:
+The ancient Thieves Guild and Assassins Guild of New Orleans had been rivals since time immemorial. Yet the lore of both organizations told of a golden age when the two organizations had been one unified guild in an antediluvian realm known only "the old kingdom"... and a prophecied day when the two Guilds would unite. The prophecy specified one being who would bring them together: a being known as "Le Diable Blanc".; As the two organizations were slowly whittled by the pressures of the modern world, they both acquired new leaders: Remy Lebeau became head of the Thieves Guild, while Bella Donna Boudreaux became leader of the Assassins Guild. When the New Son put a contract on Remy Lebeau(as part of a larger scheme), the Assassins Guild vied for the contract. When Lebeau was trapped in a wrecked building with Boudreaux, she admitted the truth - the Assassins had not been part of New Son's plan, and she had used the contract as an excuse to be close to him. With this, the two leaders renewed their marriage (which had been "annulled" years earlier when Bordreaux had been killed by her mad brother). With their leaders united, the two guild formed one organization.; The actions of the Guild are unknown, but Lebeau was ousted as leader of the organization after he spent too much time with the X-Men. The Unified Guild was seemingly shattered, as the Assassins were later seen working on their own.

+History:
+At the beginning of the Kree-Skrull War, millions of years ago in Earth time, the alien Kree established a station on the planet Uranus, a strategic position between the Kree and Skrull empires. Through their work at this station, they discovered that sentient life on nearby Earth had genetic potential invested in it by the alien Celestials. Intrigued, the Kree began to experiment on Earth's then-primitive homo sapiens by splicing Eternals' DNA into early humans.; Their goal was apparently two-fold, to investigate possible ways of circumventing their own evolutionary stagnation and to create a powerful mutant race of soldiers for use against the Skrulls. However, although their experiments were successful in creating a strain of humanity with extraordinary abilities, the Kree abandoned their experiment for reasons which are not yet clear.; Kree also carried out the same experiment on four other species, on four different planets. This had been kept for thousands of years until the discovery of the Universal Inhumans. These races were also implanted with a genetic memory that would give them the urge to unite together as one people. The genetic memory claims that the five queens will join the one king who returns from the forever night and band together in a new holy land which will be known as New Hala.; After the Kree Imperium sent Vox to murder the four alien queens, the Universal Inhumans were effectively disbanded.; ==Universal Inhumans Races==; Earth's Inhumans - ruled by King Black Bolt and Queen Medusa; Incentaurians - formerly ruled by Matriarch Oola Udonta; Moord - formerly ruled by a Queen Aladi Ko Eke; White Room - formerly ruled by First Chair Onomi Whitemane; Direst Wraiths - formerly ruled by Goddess Avoe; ===Catalysts===; Terrigenesis - exposure to the mist of the Terrigen Crystals.; Isogenesis - injection of the extract of the Isogen Orbs.; Amphogenesis - one drop of diluted water of the dormant Amphogen.; Antigenesis - eating the nectar of the nightblooms of the Antigen Tree.; Exogenesis - inhaling the Exogen Spice.; All of the Inhuman catalysts are failed attempts at recreating Primagen.

They organized the Space Sentinels a team of peacekeepers to maintain order in the universe. Their primary opposition came from the warlike Saturnians.; Despite the constant attacks from the Saturnians there are not many documented instances where the United Planets council was directly involved. However the earliest documented case was when the Saturnians were attempting to obtain plans for a disintegrator ray. To this end they used a human spy as well as murdered Markov the Martian delegate to Earth and had him replaced by a Saturnian spy. However this plot was exposed and quashed by the Space Sentinel's Speed Carter. Later Speed was instrumental in securing membership in the United Planets for the Birdmen of Uranus and the Core People, a race of stone creatures living below the surface of the Earth.

+===Origins===; Inspired by the legacy of Captain America, the United Nations Bannermen were "state-of-the-art hothouse Clone Supersoldier tech" individuals, with brains neuro-imprinted with United Nations directives and three basic personality interaction modes. Additionally they held Adamantium laced armor layering and a rapid metabolism through Super-Soldier Serum blended with Gamma-enhancement function.; They were the United Nations first-strike option.; ===Activation===; When Noh-Varr attacked the United Nations Headquarters in New York as a declaration of war against Earth in retaliation for his comrades' murder, the Security Council asked S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Dugan to authorize their first-strike option, deploying the Bannermen, which he did despite the cost (6 billion for ten minutes, each, equivalent to the national debt of Honduras), asking for Noh-Varr to be captured.; Faced to Noh-Varr's Pocket Battlefield and other technology, one had been defeated despite using their Gamma augmentation.

+History:
+The Universal Inhuman Court was a ruling council consisting of the rulers of the four colonies of non-human Inhumans that survived the Kree's purge of their Inhuman experiments. They traveled to the Earth's Moon where Earth's Inhumans lived, and the Court's members became the brides of the Inhuman king Black Bolt.; When Thanos invaded Earth, resulting in Black Bolt in destroying the Inhuman city of Attilan, the Universal Inhuman Court and their subjects chose to leave Earth and find a new place to live. They eventually established the city of Novahala as their new home on the continent of Akuunos on the planet Centauri-IV. Akuunos became their last resort because none of the species that compose the Universal Inhumans were accepted back in their respective homeworlds.; When the Kree Imperium began ordering all surviving Inhumans to join it or perish, the Universal Inhumans arranged a secret meeting on an unnamed planet to discuss the situation. Before the Inhuman Royal Family arrived, the Inhuman Court were considering surrendering to the Kree. However, the Kree arrived, including the Kree's new Inhuman soldier, Vox. Vox killed the Court and their attendants to send a message to Black Bolt that he wasn't safe.

+Species / origin: Spyricans mutated via exposure to cosmic rays
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Hall of Heroes, Hightown, Capital City, Spyre
+History:
+The Unparalleled were the protectors of the planet Spyre. Spyricans were a utopian society until their patriarch, the Overseer, detected a probing emission from Earth scientist Reed Richards, who was scanning space for an Earth-like planet to explore. Alarmed by the foreign incursion, the Overseer secretly manipulated a storm of cosmic rays that Richards' rocketship had to pass through and increased its intensity to scuttle the vessel. The ship crashed back to Earth, but its tripulants were bestowed powers by the cosmic rays and they became the Fantastic Four. Dreading that the now-powered explorers would attempt to resume their mission, the Overseer decided to harness cosmic rays and irradiate his own people with them to create a force capable of taking down the Fantastic Four if they were ever to come.; Out of all the Spyricans that volunteered for the procedure, most emerged transformed into monsters who were shunned by society and banished to the Lowtown of Spyre's Capital City. The few that gained powers without a drastic change in appearance became the Unparalleled. Headquartered in the Hall of Heroes, these champions were Sidearm, Elementa, Belter, Citadel, Kor, Kaylo, and Sky. Since Spyre was a society without crime or war, the Overseer secretly staged a rivalry between the Unparalleled and Lowtown's Monster Mob in order to have a threat for Spyre's heroes to fight in preparation for the Fantastic Four, with the Unparalleled regularly fending off terrorist attacks from the Monster Mob.; Over a decade after Richards' attempted flight, the Fantastic Four decided to complete their first mission. When they approached Spyre, the Unparalleled intercepted and cornered the Fantastic Four, who managed to establish they meant no harm. During the fight, The Thing was flung into Lowtown. The Human Torch was taken by Sky to her quarters since Spyre's Great Eye had decided he was her soulmate, and Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman were taken to the Tower of Over-Site for an audience with the Overseer, who welcomed them into Spyrican society. When Mister Fantastic deduced that the Overseer had manipulated the cosmic rays that gave the Fantastic Four their powers, he ordered the Unparalleled to kill them, and they went on the run.; In the meantime, The Thing had fought and befriended the Monster Mob and rallied them out of Lowtown to reclaim their place in society. The Unparalleled were deployed to stop the rebellion, and they were joined by Sky and the Human Torch. The Overseer had Citadel and Belter remain at the Hall of Heroes, where they failed to stop Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman from raiding the building for evidence of the Overseer's tampering. After Mister Fantastic exposed the Overseer in public, Sky turned against the Unparalleled while her team confronted both the Monster Mob and the Fantastic Four. When The Thing confronted the Overseer at the Tower of Over-Site, the building collapsed due to their fight. The Unparalleled joined forces with the Fantastic Four and the Monster Mob to contain the falling debris. Once he recovered from the fall, the Overseer challenged Mister Fantastic and they fought until Richards convinced him to instead join forces. After making peace with the Unparalleled, Mister Fantastic shared with the Spyricans a temporary cure that would revert any mutate back to normal once a year. Most Spyricans began to welcome the Monster Mob back into society, but Elementa led some of the pushback. The Unparalleled bid the Fantastic Four farewell when they departed back to Earth, but Sky joined the explorers on their journey since she wanted to try to work out a relationship with the Human Torch.; With the Reckoning causing chaos through the cosmos, supplying various alien races with the Watchers' technology, the Annihilation Wave assaulted the Spyricans. The Human Torch flew to Spyre to assist them in the fight. With his help, Annihilus was defeated and Johnny took control of the Wave. He then asked the Unparalleled in helping to defeat the Reckoning. They were joined by the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Starjammers and helped the Kree/Skrull Alliance to defeat the Mekkans, before getting the help of Ego the Living Planet and the Imperial Guard to confront the Reckoning in the Watchers' planet.

+Base of operations: Ravencroft Institute
+Weapons: The Unwanted possessed an assortment of claws, fangs, wings, tentacles, and other appendages.
+History:
+Defecting from Nazi Germany, Baron Blood and Count Dracula contracted Weapon Plus to develop a means of rendering vampires immune to their traditional weaknesses. Commandeering Ravencroft Institute, Professor Thorton and his colleagues began conducting unethical experiments on the inmates, ostensibly to create super-soldiers for the war effort; intimidating the asylum's founder, Dr. Jonas Ravencroft, into letting them do as they wished.; However, Weapon Plus' experiments proved to be failures and the test subjects mutated into grotesque vampiric monstrosities dubbed the "Unwanted" by the researchers. Fed up with his institute having been turned into a laboratory for mad scientists, Dr. Ravencroft unleashed the Unwanted on the Weapon Plus personnel before committing suicide. Through unknown means, the Unwanted were rounded up and locked in a seemingly empty vault in Ravencroft's basement. Coming under the leadership of Lt. William "Bud" Adams, over the decades they formed a partnership with Maggia crime-lord Wilson Fisk, who used them to dispose of bodies.; Decades later, the Unwanted attacked Misty Knight, Man-Wolf, Mister Fantastic, and Fisk when the group ventured into their vault, before retreating to their lair underneath the institute. As the institute was being rebuilt, the Unwanted summoned Fisk to their cell via hypnotic suggestion, Adams demanding that he run the institute as a proper mental hospital and threatening to expose what he had done as the Kingpin to the public if he refused. When Fisk refused, Adams hypnotized him into opening the vault door and had him brutally beaten. Over the next several weeks, the Unwanted - now free to roam the institute - spied on the guards and inmates from the ventilation system, taking an interest in John Jameson.; Fisk eventually tried to subdue the Unwanted by sending in a strike force consisting of villains and armed men. Adams tricked Fisk's forces by having an Unwanted telepath named Joseph trick them into attacking telepathically-generated illusions while the Unwanted launched an invasion of Ravencroft from the institute's hidden basement.; The Unwanted took over the prison, took the staff prisoner, and released its prisoners. Adams then tried to force staff member John Jameson to reveal to him where he hid the journal of Jonas Ravencroft so he could use its secrets to see the prison shut down permanently. When Jameson refused to tell him, Adams threatened to activate the prison's self-destruct program. Jameson eventually revealed that the journal had gone missing. Adams accused him of lying and was about to interrogate staff member Norman Osborn when he learned that Fisk and his men had overcame the psychic deception and were now trying to retake the prison. Jameson then transformed into Man-Wolf and took down Adams. Afterward, Adams and the surviving Unwanted were taken by the mysterious J.A.N.U.S. organization to be experimented on.

Along with Red Slayers, they went to the cult's home, initially unable to find them as the ceremony was taking place underground. The woman delivered twins, a girl and a boy, instead of a single boy. Seeing this as blasphemy, the Unliving slew the woman just before Kull entered. The Red Slayers were unable to harm the Unliving, but Kull slay them, striking with compassion. Kull tasked Tu to drown the twin babies, but Tu was unable and instead secretly delivered them to shepherd who had lost his only son recently, and the twins would endure into the Hyborian Age of Conan, circa 10,000 BC.

+Base of operations: Germany, circa World War II
+Weapons: Each of the Victory Boys is armed with a bow and arrow.
+Trivia: Der Schwarzwald is the German name for the Black Forest.
+History:
+===Preface===; The Victory Boys were just some of many costumed operatives active during World War II who were recruited into the United States military. The purpose was to enlist such individuals in order to publish propaganda in the form of comic books that were commissioned by the United States military and published by Timely Comics. These comics were used to convince Americans to support the war, and increase enlistment. Like many heroes recruited in this fashion, the Victory Boys fictional exploits were few, as the characters were no longer used in comics after their real life deaths, as readers would not want to read about dead soldiers.; Presumably, much like the Young Allies, the fictional exploits of the Victory Boys may be based on actual events. For the sake of clarity, however, this article differentiates between the two.; ===Fictional Exploits===; The Victory Boys were a group of youths that lived in Germany during World War II who banded together to fight the tyrannical Nazi regime. In their first recorded appearance they assisted the young boy named Victor (who later joined the team) in rescuing his father from a Nazi concentration camp.; Later the group hid in the German Blackforest (Schwarzwald) near Adolf Hitler's castle. Victory Boy member Maxie Stein was sent out into the woods to hunt for deer to cook for dinner. Maxie was captured by Nazi soldiers who were sent into the woods by Hitler himself on the same task to prepare a meal for the visiting Axis leaders Benito Mussolini and Emperor Hirohito. Discovering their comrade had been kidnapped, the other Victory Boys led an assault on Hitler's castle and freed their comrade. Freeing Maxie, the group sent Hitler, Mussolini and Hirohito fleeing in a hail of arrow and managed to escape into the Black Forest unscathed.; ===Real Life Exploits===; In real life, the Victory Boys were a group of youths, one member named Piotr spoke Polish and were first seen as members of the Crazy S.U.E.S. as early as August 29, 1944 as they were seen with the unit following their part in the liberation of Nazi-occupied France. Under Captain America's command, the Victory Boys joined the unit through the European countryside into Belgium where they clashed with Nazi forces. Penned in by enemy fire, the Victory Boys and the others were rescued by their teammate Captain Flame.; On December 6, 1944, the Victory Boys and the Crazy Sues entered Saarlautern, Germany and once more clashed with Nazi forces. The Victory Boys were caught in the blast of a shell fired from a Tiger Tank. Four of the Victory Boys were killed instantly, leaving Piotr mortally wounded. Fellow Crazy Sue members Archie the Gruesome, Merzah the Mystic, and the Young Avenger attempted to patch him up. Realizing how futile their struggles where, Young Avenger ordered Archie to pump Piotr full of morphine to make him feel no pain. Shot up full of the painkiller, Piotr then thanked the Young Avenger for putting him out of his misery before the hero used his own service pistol to shoot his teammate in the head.

They tracked down John by following his ally the vampire hunter Blade.; They fought Blade and used their psychic connection to overwhelm him. While Peter held off Blade, Diane attacked Bible John. However, Blade was able to escape Peter by breaking his jaw and took out Diane with a thrown dagger to the heart. Peter then had his back broken when Blade tackled him. Peter wanted to retreat by turning into mist, but Marie Laveau telepathically told him to stay so she could monitor the situation. Peter tried to make a deal with Blade: he would turn Bible John into a vampire as he was near death due to a fever and in return Blade would revive Diane by removing the dagger in her heart. Blade realized that Peter was planning to double-cross him and kill Bible John. So, he killed Peter.

+Vanguard was the name of a secret black-ops team of super heroes that carried out missions, including assassinations, on foreign soil.; During one mission, Micromax was captured by Jaafar Yoosuf and was forced to tell him about Vanguard and their most powerful operative, Colonel America (Trenton Craft). Yoosuf used his powers of body-possession to cause police detective, Stacy Dolan to murder Craft. Her investigation leads to her own arrest, but survives a failed assassination attempt by Vanguard operative, Dominic Fortune.; Dolan discovers the entire Vanguard team and convinces them that she is innocent by exposing Yoosuf, who is summarily killed by Blade. Craft arrives at their facility to reveal that his telekinetic powers allowed him to survive his murder and autopsy, but that he has to destroy Dolan and the entire roster to preserve the secret identity of Vanguard.; The Vanguard members survive thanks to the intervention of Retcon whose powers allowed Craft to think he had killed them, but they are all forced to go into hiding. Later, Craft has redonned his uniform as Colonel America and completed another mission, talking to his handler and referring to a new, male version of Retcon, who presumably has similar powers.

+First appearance: Strange Tales Vol 1 116
+Created by: Stan Lee; Dick Ayers; Gardner Fox; Sam Kweskin
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Mystic trinity of benevolent entities
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Unknown extradimensional realm
+Notes: The Vishanti first appeared on-panel in Marvel Premiere Vol 1 5 (November, 1972), a story written by Gardner Fox and strongly influenced by Robert E. Howard and the Cthulhu Mythos, as the "Eternal Ones", benevolent elder entities having fought the Great Old One Shuma-Gorath, seemingly acting as counterparts to August Derleth's benevolent Elder Gods. "The Eternal Ones" were also a benevolent group of entities, tied to Epemitreus, mentioned in the adaptation of Conan of the Isles (October, 1968; Lancer Books) by L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter in Conan the Barbarian Annual Vol 1 7 (reprinted and completed in Marvel Graphic Novel #42: Conan of the Isles), written by Roy Thomas and penciled by John Buscema. The mention of "Eternal Ones" in Marvel Premiere #5 was possibly a reference to those entities.
+Trivia: The Seal of the Vishanti predominantly featured in the Sanctum Sanctorum's window and the Book of the Vishanti was designed by Steve Ditko as an homage to the design of a window present in Will Eisner's The Spirit.; Agamotto was once misidentified as the "tiger" of the Vishanti instead of Hoggoth.
+History:
+===Origins===; Oshtur was one of the Elder Gods of Earth, the first lifeforms created when the planet's sentient bio-sphere, the Demiurge, breathed life into the world. Oshtur left Earth for the stars to explore, and as a result she was not present when Set and Chthon led the corruption of the Elder Gods into Demons, or when the remaining pure Goddess Gaea mated with the Demiurge to produce Demogorge, the God-Eater, who slew most of the Elder Demons and drove Set and Chthon into exile.; Hoggoth was a mystical entity, and the enigmatic survivor of an ancient, mystic race, possibly predating Earth's universe, the Old Ones. Hoggoth believed himself alone in all of creation, save for the ghosts of his fellow Old Ones, the Hosts of Hoggoth.; After centuries in isolation on his barren world, Hoggoth was encountered by Oshtur, who had left Earth, curious about the rest of the universe and the dimensions beyond it. Oshtur learned much from Hoggoth, but upon leaving, Hoggoth asked to join her.; ===Formation===; ====Travels of Hoggoth and Oshtur====; From Hoggoth, Oshtur also came to understand loneliness and the value of connecting to other beings.; <!-- unclear when it happens in the comics:; maybe after they went to Earth, as Hoggoth considered it their home,; but by then they would know of the Elder Gos degenerating into demons? -->Travelling, the Vishanti Hoggoth and Oshtur reached a galaxy in pain, ruled by despot gods the Vishanti named the "Akkerhim", or the "Other Gods". Those craved for conquest. The Akkherhim consequently became aware of the Elder Gods. To protect their home, the Vishanti went to war, conjured the Extinction King from carrion dredged from the Outer Dark, who in turn crafted the Extinction Weapons using Mortoturgy, and together they eradicated the Akkerhim, before the Vishanti imprisoned the insane Extinction King.; Oshtur eventually returned to Earth with Hoggoth, where she discovered the many changes occurred there in her absence. Oshtur was disheartened to learn about the genocide of her brothers and sisters. She made contact with Gaea, Set, and Chthon, and they conceived a pact to avoid direct interference with each other's affairs. Oshtur came to care for the developing mankind of Earth, however, and felt trapped by her own promise not to interfere when Set's Serpent-Men and Chthon's N'Garai demons tormented the young race.Verify source; ====Agamotto====; One day, Oshtur observed three children at play, and their joy caused her to shed a single tear. A child of her own emerged from that tear, and Oshtur named him Agamotto. Agamotto loved to learn, and the two were quite happy together. Oshtur sent Agamotto on a great quest to find her, and in doing so he mastered the Three Forms of Magic, forging the three Eyes of Agamotto as he did so. Agamotto grew into a great teacher and sorcerer, who loved humanity as much as his mother. Through him, Oshtur could protect humanity from her Elder God brothers, for Agamotto (like the N'Garai or Serpent-Men) was not bound by their oath of non-interference. Furthermore, Oshtur and Agamotto joined with Hoggoth to become a mystical trinity known as the Vishanti, and Agamotto encouraged the study of magic in humanity through his writings in the Book of the Vishanti.Verify source; In this way, Agamotto became the first Sorcerer Supreme of the Earthly dimension. Agamotto was somewhat emotional and mercurial, however -- whenever humanity failed or disappointed him, or succumbed to the temptations provided by Chthon or Set, Agamotto would retreat from humanity in disgust, only to forgive them decades or centuries later. Agamotto occasionally tried to chose a successor, but these mages either died or became corrupt, further anguishing Agamotto. Thousands of years ago, the human known only as Genghis sought out the Vishanti and asked them for knowledge and mystical power. In return, Aged Genghis would gather the most powerful mages and sorcerers on Earth every century to test them. The strongest would become Earth's Sorcerer Supreme. The Sorcerer Supreme would protect Earth's dimension for the Vishanti and fight their enemies and in return could call upon the powers of the Vishanti. Agamotto and the Vishanti accepted this proposal, for Genghis was wise in humanity in ways Agamotto could never be, and so the role of Earth's defender and agent of the Vishanti officially became known as the Sorcerer Supreme.; When deciding a new Sorcerer Supreme, the Vishanti occasionally hosted magical tournaments. They became mystic principalities, beings whose names were often invoked for spells.; ===Ancient Times===; At some point, the Vishanti fought the wickedness of Shuma-Gorath.; <!-- ===Pre-Cataslysmic Age===; ...; -->; ====Great Cataclsym====; During the Great Cataclysm, the Vishanti shielded the witch Agatha Harkness from the cosmic alien entity known as the Other, who was in truth one of the Extinction King's lost Extinction Weapons called Deathblood, a war machine of their own making that was destroying Atlantis. In shame, the Vishanti later claimed to be Agatha's saviors and placed an Uroath upon her, when in reality they were attempting to contain a catastrophe born of their own failure to stop all the weapons.; ====Hyborian Age====; During the Hyborian Age, after the prophet Epemitreus died circa 11,500 BC, the Eternal Ones set him at Golamira as Man's guardian. During the Age of Conan, circa 10,000 BC, all went according to their wishes from Epemitreus' first meeting with King Conan of Aquilonia, and until the threat of the Red Shadows arose in Hyboria.; The Brotherhood of Sahb Delanzar used the "eldritch symbol of power" to raise the dead as warriors. The symbol resembles the Seal of the Vishanti. Whether this is a mere resemblance, or if the two are related or even the same, remains unrevealed.; ===Modern Age===; ====War of the Seven Spheres====; In the Modern Age, the Vishanti and other magical beings became embroiled in the War of the Seven Spheres with their counterparts, the Trinity of Ashes. The Vishanti assumed that Doctor Strange, Earth's Sorcerer Supreme would fight at alongside them, but when they mentioned that the war was expected to continue for several millennia, Strange declined, unwilling to leave Earth undefended for so long. Strange renounced the Vishanti's power, and was expelled from Earth by the ancient sorceress Salome who offered her services to the Vishanti in exchange for power. The Vishanti found Salome's lack of ethics distasteful, yet accepted her offer due to the needs of the war. Warmed Agamotto about the deal with Salome, Strange found new power in the mystical energy of Earth itself.; After Salome was defeated, the Vishanti approached Strange again, and this time he accepted to repay the support Vishanti offered him over the years,Verify source as the Vishanti considered that their defeat at the hands of the Trinity of Ashes was possible, and that Earth would likely suffer if they losed, prompting Strange to accept and lead the Vishanti's armies against those of the Trinity of Ashes. Strange's one condition was to be returned to the present moment after the war's conclusion, ensuring that Earth remained protected. During the War, Doctor Druid acted as the avatar of Slorioth who would take hold of Earth. The Vishanti were notified of Slorioth's activities by Gaea's servant, and aware that direct confrontation would annihilate Earth and its dimensional plane, the Vishanti summoned the Living Tribunal to decide on the matter. It resulted with Slorioth removed from Earth.Verify source; After 5,000 years of war, in fear of General Strange destroying them, the Trinity of Ashes sued the Vishanti for peace at the condition that General Strange would be imprisoned where he could never threaten the Trinity of Ashes again, which they accepted, despite Strange's protest. As an agreement was already made with Doctor Strange, the Vishanti separated Doctor Strange from General Strange. After returning Doctor Strange to Earth without any memory of the War, they gave him a crystal of great danger, linked to his life force, in which was held General Strange.; Shortly after the War concluded, one of the principal artifacts involved in it - the Sphere of Sara-Kath - lighted upon Earth once more, but was dabbled with by Technomages who were ignorant of its power. They accidentally released an entity called Buel, a 'Gremlin-Lord' who was imprisoned in another dimension. Doctor Strange succeeded in destroying Buel and the Sphere with the help from Spider-Man.Verify source; ====Kubik and Kosmos====; The Vishanti appeared to the entities Kubik and Kosmos on their tour of the planes of existence, alongside various other deities, abstract concepts and cosmic entities.; ====Axis====; In the course of World War Hate, after Red Onslaught broadcasted hate across the planet, an arrogant and angerly Doctor Strange attempted to commune with Hoggoth and Agamotto, in vain.; ====Strange Academy====; After the Vishanti granted Doctor Strange the request to teach and prepare the magical youth, Strange Academy contracted a high debt to Hoggoth, who hate the magical cost to allow the Strange Academy to exist.; After Emily Bright of Strange Academy siphoned the power of two beings (including her classmate Doyle Dormammu) and collapsed, Doctor Strange was unable to unable to help her. He decided to plea for Hoggoth's help despite the already tremendous debt. Despite being angered by Strange's request, Hoggoth removed most of the magics from Emily, though wasn't unable to fully cleanse her. The combination of the chaos caused by the Death of Doctor Strange along with the cost of the Strange Academy eventually led to Hoggoth's collapse. Hoggoth seemingly recuperated afterwards.; Later, during Strange Academy's First Year Commencement Ceremony, Emily Bright and Dormammu's army stepped on the Academy's ground, ready to confront both teachers and students. Dormammu and his army were transported by the faculty staff to the Vishanti's plane where Oshtur, Agamotto and Hoggoth attacked them, while Bright and her followers were opposed by Doyle Dormammu and his fellow students. During the battle, as Doyle and Bright unleashed their powers at each other, Bright pierced the dimensional boundaries to tap directly into Hoggoth's magic core, the cue for Dormammu to retreat as the prophecy was accomplishing, starting the "Dawn of Bright". Voodoo asked Hoggoth to transport them back to Strange Academy, where Doyle had taken back his magic from Bright, and awas about to lose control of that power. Witnessing the noble act of Doyle, Hoggoth intervened and swallowed the dark magic from Doyle, saving him.; ====Return of General Strange====; To counter the return of General Strange, Doctor Strange consulted the Vishanti who revealed they couldn't track the General, as any search for him led to the Doctor, and informed him that the General would resume the War and use Earth as his war camp and its inhabitants conscripts, but feared he would go after the Vishanti rather than the Trinity of Ashes.; Afterwards, the Vishanti confronted Strange for having not destroyed the General as well as for his alliance with the Trinity of Ashes to defeat the General, resulting in a heated exchange between the Doctor and the Vishanti.; After Doctor Strange lent the title of Sorcerer Supreme to Doctor Doom to save the world, but was betrayed by Doom who kept the title, Strange went to the Vishanti who denied him (which Strange considered they did so because he had defied them on the General's matter).; ====Scarlet Witch's Rebellion====; When Valeria Richards died, Doctor Doom demanded her resurrection from the Vishanti. After they refused, he appealed to the Living Tribunal, who agreed in exchange for Doom’s life. The agreement destroyed the Eye of Agamotto and the Cloak of Levitation, leaving only weakened remnants in the Astral Plane. The Scarlet Witch sacrificed the Last Door to restore these artifacts and claimed the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme. When the Vishanti demanded the items back, Wanda refused, reclaimed them by force, and banished the entities to the Crossroads. In response, the enraged Vishanti named Agatha Harkness the true Sorcerer Supreme. Reminded of an ancient debt from the Great Cataclysm, Agatha accepted and was gifted the Will of the Vishanti and the Skull of Necrom.; After Agatha seemingly defeated Wanda and banished her to Limbo, the Vishanti observed events from the Crossroads. Wanda defeated Limbo's ruler, Madelyne Pryor, and returned to the Sanctum Sanctorum to confront Agatha. Meanwhile, the Vishanti discussed Agatha's Uroath. Oshtur declared Wanda must be deposed and proposed granting Agatha power beyond any prior Sorcerer Supreme. Hoggoth objected, warning this could break the chains of Moritarga holding back the Extinction Weapons. Agamotto questioned Oshtur about the Weapons, but she dismissed his concerns, insisting the chains would hold because Maximoff had to fall.; Wanda engaged Agatha again, transporting their battle to Vesbios, a young, lifeless planet within the Quantum Realm. Using mind magic, Wanda overwhelmed Agatha and uncovered her debt with the deities, prompting the Vishanti to intervene physically. Ignoring warnings from Hoggoth and Agamotto that a direct assault risked breaking the Chains of Moritarga, Oshtur struck Wanda with full fury. Wanda endured the blast and retaliated by compressing a newly created galaxy into her fingertips, shooting Oshtur into a coma. Hoggoth and Agamotto retreated with the wounded Oshtur and released Agatha from her oath. This ultimately led to the Extinction King breaking free from his chains on Moritarga.

When the leader of the Vestigials left her for dead to save his own skin, Gamora saw them as being no better than Thanos and decided to abandon her only ties to the past, taking L'Wit and a few other refugees with her instead and leaving the criminals to die.

+History:
+After being imprisoned by Spider-Man, Honcho just happened to share the same cell with Adrian Toomes. Feigning ignorance, he learned the villain's secrets of flight and during his parole created four duplicate Vulture costumes. With his three partners in crime (also imprisoned by the wall crawler), this group of formerly common criminals could now take their revenge on Spider-Man.; ===First Flight===; While out on a scouting mission, Gripes observed Spider-Man fighting his costume, which had taken on a life of its own. Not wanting to take advantage of the hero while he was at a disadvantage, the other Vulturions joined Gripes in battle against the web-head. Despite being preoccupied, Spider-Man fought off three of the Vulturions easily and forced the fourth to fly into the church bell in order to weaken his costume. This last Vulturion, dazed from being smashed into the bell gladly fled the church tower at Spider-Man's direction.; Honcho revealed new blow dart weapons to the group, which they used successfully in robbing an armoured car. They next contacted the Kingpin and told him of their plans to kill Spider-Man, hoping that he would hire them as assassins. They ambushed Spider-Man in full view of the Kingpin's tower but this agitated his wife, Vanessa, who was just beginning to recover from her psychological trauma. Coincidentally Spider-Man was carrying a birthday present for his Aunt May (a hat,) putting the hero at a severe disadvantage against his attackers since he could not allow it to be damaged. Regardless of this advantage the Vulturions were defeated one by one however they did manage nail the hero with several darts resulting in his loss of consciousness after the battle as the hat blew away. Kingpin was pleased with Spider-Man for ending the disturbance and restored/returned the hat good as new, the Vulturions earning the mobster's disdain.; Adrian Toomes, having read the newspaper reports of the Vulturion's exploits, was furious over their usurping of his identity. Designing a new costume and breaking free from prison, Toomes located and attacked the four Vulturions. Though outnumbered, the Vulture's superior experience and determination won out and he began to whittle down the group. Planning to finish off each member in sequence after their defeat, Spider-Man decided to get involved. Despite taking another dart to the arm, the hero webbed up the last of the Vulturions, passing out afterward leaving them at the mercy of the Vulture. The group was placed under police custody.; ===Civil War===; With his old crew gone, Honcho found two new members for the Vulturions. Shortly after, the group was hired by Senator Woodman, a Hydra agent, to steal Gamma-enhancement secrets from Baron von Blitzschlag. The Vulturions successfully stole the case from Blitzschlag, but an out of costume Peter Parker and the Scarlet Spiders soon caught up with and defeated the group.; ===Civil War II===; The Vulturions later resurface with upgraded equipment and still using their moniker. They were in the middle of a heist where they end up fighting Spider-Man again.; ==Equipment==; Electromagnetic Wing Harness: Each of the Vulturions wore near duplicates of the Vulture's costume, which granted peak to enhanced human strength and winged flight. Utilizing this harness the Vulturions are able to fly with a natural winged flight limit (95 miles per hour) and attain a maximum height of 11,000 feet.; Transportation: The Vulturions prefer Flight.; Weapons: Blow-dart Guns: The Vulturions used blow darts containing a derivative of curare, which causes total paralysis and is often fatal if a patient is not hospitalized and treated for respiratory paralysis immediately. Unfortunately for the group however, when used on Spider-Man it seems to work similarly to a powerful sedative.; Special Corrosive:They were also shown using a corrosive to melt through glass.

The undead crooks then committed a series of crimes. Followed back to their hideout by the Young Allies, the heroes realized that the crooks were vulnerable to fire. Toro then set the mansion ablaze while his teammates fled. Inside, Killer Bane and his fellow walking dead were incinerated.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Equipment: The Walking Dead wore ghoulish masks and make up to appear as though they were zombies.
+History:
+The so-called Walking Dead were a group of Japanese spies active during World War II. They were led by American traitor Peter Anzel, who owned Lawmere Cemetery. In 1945, they were spying on chemist John Porter and witnessed as he tested a new biological weapon on his cattle, killing them. John soon died of a fatal illness and instructed his sister to bury him in secrecy with the formula, making her promise to only recover it should the Allies needed an edge to win the war.; Suspecting that John had his secret weapon buried with him but not knowing where his body was kept, Anzel and his Japanese allies dressed up as corpses and began searching the cemetery so that they could frighten the locals away. When news of the "Walking Dead" became wide spread, Anzel led a group of locals and the authorities to the cemetery and succeeded in frightening off any curious parties. That is, until, Captain America and Bucky began investigating the strange happenings, suspecting that they were searching for Porter's weapon.; Captain America and Bucky failed to stop the Walking Dead from capturing John's sister Laura and forcing her to show them the hidden tomb where her brother was buried. As Cap and Bucky fought the spies, Anzel slipped into the secret tomb and attempted to abscond with the formula. However, clashing with Captain America, the formula was knocked into a furnace and destroyed. Anzel was soon defeated and unmasked, and he and his minions were turned over to the authorities.; Their subsequent fate is unknown.

+Reality: Earth-15513

+Transportation: Eldrac the Door
+History:
+The Voice Unheard was a rebel movement dedicated to overthrowing the rule of God Emperor Doom in the Kingdom of Manhattan. Queen Medusa, ruler of New Attilan, was tasked by Doom with stamping out the rebellion. The undead G-Man, a member of the movement, was captured by the Thors in the domain of Greenland, as the Voice Unheard tried to deliver a serum to cure the Hulks there of their condition. G-Man was sent to New Attilan by God Emperor Doom to be interrogated by Queen Medusa.; G-Man seemingly died during his interrogation at the hands of Sterilon, but Sterilon was able to discover that the rebels had some connection with the nightclub known as the Quiet Room. So, Medusa sent Auran, one of her best agents, to the club to learn more about the rebellion. When she arrived at the Quiet Room, she was approached by Blackagar, the secret leader of the Voice Unheard. Black Bolt was already aware that Auran worked for Medusa.; While Black Bolt entertained Auran, Kamala Khan, another of Medusa's agents, disguised herself as Tony Stark, entered the club, and made her way to its lower levels, where the Voice Unheard maintained their base. Kamala discovered that the Voice Unheard planned to reach out to the domain of the Warzone through New Mars to deliver medical supplies requested by people of the Blue. Kamala was then discovered by the Bard, a member of the rebellion. Kamala managed to tell telling Auran, who was able to listen to her because of her enhanced hearing, what she had found before being stunned and captured by Mega-Rad.; Auran managed to escaped, forcing the rebellion to evacuate their base through Eldrac the Door and go on with their mission; however, they were surprised by New Attilan's forces, who destroyed their access to Eldrac after Black Bolt and half his men used it to get to New Mars. The remaining rebels in the Quiet Room were eventually subdued by another contingent of Queen Medusa's troops, while their leader surrendered to save his allies in New Mars.; Black Bolt was taken to New Attilan to be interrogated by Sterilon, but as his mental blocks were stronger than the ones G-Man had, Medusa decided to talk with him. Black Bolt revealed to Medusa that he planned to destroy New Attilan because it broadcast a signal that brainwashed the population of Manhattan and kept them under Doom's control. Medusa didn't believe Black Bolt, but as the Thors were taking Black Bolt to Doomgard, Medusa began having second thoughts about her support for Doom and decided to help Black Bolt. Meanwhile, the rebels who were saved by Black Bolt found themselves in the domain of Dystopia.; Later, Medusa rescued Black Bolt and the pair fled New Attilan using the teleportation power of Lockjaw. They then went to the Quiet Room where Medusa ordered her forces to free the captured rebels and the remaining rebels in Dystopia, so that they could work together in their invasion of New Attilan, which was now under the control of the Thors, and destroy it in order to end its brainwashing signal.; During the invasion, Black Bolt and Medusa attempted to activate the self-destruct sequence of the city's central core unit, but they were thwarted by the Thors, and Black Bolt was badly injured protecting Medusa. Medusa brought Black Bolt to the Inhumans' Terrigen Chamber and had him undergo Terrigenesis in order to heal him and activate his Inhuman genes. When Black Bolt spoke, his quasi-sonic scream activated and accidentally killed Medusa and the pursuing Thors. In anger, Black Bolt let out a loud scream that destroyed New Attilan. He then flew toward Doomstadt, where Emperor Doom resided, to kill him.; Unfortunately, Doom had been watching the whole ordeal, and with a mere snap of his fingers, was able to reverse everything that happened with one exception: Black Bolt's and Medusa's roles were switched. Doom had earlier hinted that this situation had happened several times before and he likely allowed it to happen over and over again in order to keep the rebellion movement in check.

+Affiliation: Kree Imperium
+Powers: Teleportation; Superhuman Reflexes; Energy Projection; Superhuman Durability
+Weapons: The Vox wield scythes consisting of a handle and blade made of an unknown kind of red energy. It's capable of easily slicing through its victims. They also wield a small, sharp dagger.
+Trivia: The Vox's costume design is similar to that of Ahura Boltagon of Earth-9997.; The Vox's ghastly appearance and use of a scythe may be intended to invoke the perception of the Grim Reaper.
+History:
+The Vox were the next stage of Inhuman evolution called Super-Inhumans and created by the Kree Imperium to serve in their civil war against the Kree Empire. They were designed to have the powers of an Inhuman, but none of the humanity, which the Kree found problematic. The Vox were simply the first in a program the Kree implemented to turn Inhumans into brainwashed agents of theirs. The Vox began a campaign of terror in which they systematically killed thousands of Inhumans, including the Universal Inhuman Court, in order to send a message from the Kree Imperium to the King of the Inhumans of Earth, Black Bolt: join or die.; While the Inhuman Royal Family were in shock over the massacre of the Inhuman Court, the Vox and the Kree launched an attack on the Inhuman city of New Arctilan. The Vox was confronted by Black Bolt's brother, Maximus, who fired an energy weapon at him. The Vox shrugged it off and fired a blast of energy that seemingly destroyed Maximus' right arm.; The Vox told Maximus to give Black Bolt the message to join the Kree Imperium, but Maximus vehemently refused and would have been killed if Lockjaw hadn't appeared. Lockjaw chomped down on the Vox in his jaws before tossing him away; however, the Vox quickly recovered and seemingly killed both Maximus and Lockjaw with energy blasts, though he had actually teleported the pair to an unknown location where they too were converted into agents of the Kree.; When Karnak arrived on Hala and stated that the Inhumans wouldn't surrender, the Vox was brought in by the Kree to subdue him. Then Black Bolt appeared to wipe out the Kree, but before Black Bolt could destroy the Vox with his voice, the Vox teleported behind him and slit his throat with a dagger.; During the Inhuman Royal Family's final assault on the Kree, the Vox sent an army of brainwashed Inhumans to confront Black Bolt as he entered the location responsible for maintaining the Kree's control over the brainwashed Inhumans. Black Bolt was forced to utilize his powerful voice to wipe out everyone there in order to stop the Kree's plans, and the Vox and his Kree masters were eventually forced to retreat.; By the time the merger of the Kree Imperium with the Skrull Empire occurred, the Vox had died out. Vox Supreme also appeared to have betrayed the Imperium after he himself merged with the Supreme Intelligence.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly K'un-Lun
+History:
+After taking over K'un-Lun, Lin Feng was tasked by Chiyou with building an army for him. Feng used Chiyou's magic to extract Shou-Lao's Chi from his reborn egg and imbued the power of the Iron Fist tainted by Chiyou's influence onto captured K'un-Luans, turning them into War Fists and with Tiger's Faithful Daughter's necklace, made them completely obedient to Chiyou.; Feng sent his general Steel Serpent, who was also imbued with the same power, to lead the War Fists in invading the Third Tower of Wisdom but they were stopped by the combined efforts of Iron Fist, Daredevil, White Tiger, Fooh, Magister Karnak, Aero and Friends of the Tower.; More War Fists were summoned by Feng to join him and his generals at the Tower of K'un-Lun against Iron Fist's forces, but after the battle against him fell apart when Pei, White Fox, Ghost Fist, the Ascended Weapons and the remaining members of K'un-Lun's resistance backed up Iron Fist. The War Fists were freed from Chiyou's influence when Faithful's necklace was destroyed. When Chiyou resurrected himself through Feng's body, all of the War Fists transferred their chi to Iron Fist, transforming him into a Demigod form to face against Chiyou. The former War Fists celebrated when Iron Fist defeated Chiyou and Shou-Lao was reborn. Feng was later depowered and taken prisoner by Loki, but when he discovered that Loki left him with a sliver of Chiyou's power, he declared himself as the Immortal War Fist.

+History:
+The Warriors Three are a group of Asgardian warriors and close allies of Thor ever since his youth. They first met when they joined Thor's expedition to restore the Odinsword that had become cracked.; When Asgard was destroyed by Ragnarok, the Warriors Three disappeared as well. However, they were rediscovered by Thor in the bodies of three refugee camp guards in Africa.; After Thor had become unworthy to lift Mjolnir, Jane Foster became the one to take on the mantle of Thor. While drinking with Jane at Odin's Fav Tavern, the group all got into a fight with drunken Asgardians and were thrown out. After, under the guise of having her prove herself (but really just wanting to have fun), The Warriors Three had Jane perform many feats that Thor Odinson had accomplished. They had her fight a multi-headed dragon in order to retrieve a gold helmet which she did with ease. They had her steal a lock of Aelsa Featherwine of the Fay's hair. Jane accomplished that feat by simply waking up the Elf Queen and addressing her demand. After completing a number of feats, the Warriors Three and Jane celebrated and they accepted her as a new Thor.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Midtown Hotel
+History:
+Using three Satyrs as his agents, Ares (under the guise of "Mr. Tallon") had them place men in New York under their spell so that they would become his lackeys, and christened them his "Warhawks," garbing them with hats and armbands bearing the symbol of a hawk's talons. The Warhawks were gathered by Ares to fan the flames of war by demonstrating outside of the Midtown Hotel in New York where Wo Tong, a delegate to the United Nations from a communist country, was staying. Ares incited his Warhawks to storm the hotel to assault Wo Tong, and this attracted the attention of Captain America, Quicksilver, Rick Jones, and the Scarlet Witch of the Avengers, who tried to reason with the crowd, but instead fell under the spell of Ares' satyrs.; Warhawks were also dispatched to Stark Industries with one of the satyrs, and they managed to control Iron Man, and forced him to help design new weapons for Ares. The Vision came to Stark Industries to stop the Warhawks, and battled Iron Man. In the course of their battle, Iron Man blasted Vision in the face with his repulsor rays and struck him so hard that he fell back into the satyr, crushing him to death. With the satyr dead, Iron Man and the Warhawks regained their senses. The Vision, Iron Man and Thor rallied against the Warhawks and their fellow Avengers, but Iron Man fell under the satyrs' spell again as soon as he heard their music.; The Scarlet Witch managed to separate Mjolnir from Thor using a hex-sphere, but the timely arrival of Hawkeye set Mjolnir free and Thor's fiery display of power began to shock some of the Warhawks back to their senses. The Vision used this moment to strike, and knocked both of the satyrs unconscious. Ares fled the scene.

+Species / origin: Clan of Neo.
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+The Warclan is one of the different communities of the Neo, who comprised different clans of recluse mutants. The Neo suffered a major crisis after the High Evolutionary temporarily deactivated the mutant gene. As a result, they unleashed their rage upon Earth and, more specifically, the X-Men, a group of mutant activists who promoted racial integration. The Warclan was led by Domina, who was driven by vengeance since her child and her parents could not survive the depowering effect. The Warclan brutally attacked the X-Men. Nightcrawler was targetted to assassination by Jaeger, who ended up being killed by Cecilia Reyes; Kitty Pryde was seduced by Seth, who sabotaged the High Evolutionary's space station when the X-Men were giving maintenance to it. The X-Men resisted, but were overpowered by the Warclan. The X-Men gained advantage in the battle, knocking Domina out and forcing a retreat. As such, Domina preserved the Warclan in the St. Michael's Church in Brooklyn.; The leadership of the Warclan was challenged by Rax, who conspired against Domina by forging an alliance with the X-Men's leader Rogue. This allowed the X-Men to counter-attack Domina's Warclan. During the battle, Elysia was informed that the X-Men had no participation in deactivating the mutant abilities on Earth, quite the contrary. She was able to convince Domina to cease her attack. However, the Warclan still considered themselves opponents of the X-Men. Following the eradication of the Legacy Virus, Magneto, the master of magnetism and ruler of Genosha, appeared before Domina's Warclan demanding subservience. Claiming he would tolerate mutants fighting each other no more, he subdued the Warclan and forced Domina to surrender her clan and to join him.; Genosha was eventually obliterated by Wild Sentinels, causing the death of the majority of its population. Additionally, mutantkind was severely endangered following the events of the mutant decicmation. A group of Neo resembling the Warclan resurfaced in San Francisco as a terrorist faction, but was confronted by the Young X-Men team. The few surviving Neo were claimed to have been wiped out by Evolutionaries. Although their fate is uncertain, their survival seems unlikely.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The Warbound were forged on the planet Sakaar to overthrow the reign of the Red King.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Shadow People's stone starship; Formerly:; Sakaar
+Transportation: Unnamed space vessel composed primarily of stone
+History:
+The Warbound are a group of interplanetary refugees late of the planet Sakaar. Led by the exiled Earth champion, the Hulk, the Warbound agreed to assist the Hulk in his plan of revenge against those responsible for his exile, the Illuminati. Piloting an Earthen ship, the Warbound brought the Hulk from Sakaar to Earth's Moon, where he was able to extract revenge against the first of his chosen adversaries, Black Bolt. They then brought him to Earth, where they destroyed a squadron of remote-controlled Iron Man robots.; Eventually the Warbound helped to defeat some of the heroes, bringing them to Madison Square Garden so that all of Earth could witness the defeat of the Illuminati. However, when the final battle between the Hulk and the Sentry began to cause serious damage, the Warbound instead collaborated with the heroes to help the civilians evacuate, the Warbound being unwilling to witness another world die. But soon Miek's treachery of genocidal negligence was revealed, as he had merely observed and done nothing while loyalist followers of the Red King planted bombs that initially triggered the destruction of Sakaar and caused the Hulk's crusade of revenge. He had not intervened because he believed that it was necessary to 'remind' the Hulk that he was a killer instead of a peacemaker. The Hulk and No-Name nearly killed him upon learning of this, and the surviving Warbound subsequently surrendered to the government with the Hulk's defeat. They were held in custody by S.H.I.E.L.D but subsequently escaped after Hiroim (with help from Korg and the Thing) prevented Manhattan from breaking in two.; After the Warbound evaded S.H.I.E.L.D.'s capture, they were teleported to New Mexico by the Leader, who used Hiroim's tectonic power to activate a gamma-powered shield over a large portion of the desert. They were being chased by S.H.I.E.L.D using information given by an incapacitated and incarcerated Miek to S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Kate Waynesboro. Trapped inside Gammaworld, the Warbound joined forces with a local US Army company to save a nearby town from irradiated (and thus huge) insects and began to feel the effects of the gamma radiation themselves. Using Hiriom's Oldstrong power, the group managed to dispel some of the radiation, opening a gap in the Gammaworld dome for the civilians to escape through, but were interrupted by the arrival of a huge, gamma-powered gestalt being composed of numerous townsfolk and a dog fused together by the radiation. The creature, known as Horde, attempted to destroy everyone who tried to leave, but was fended off by Agent Waynesboro, and as the Warbound attacked the Leader, Hiroim told Korg to kill him in order to destroy the dome. Korg then shattered Hiroim and the dome dissipated; however, Hiroim reformed along with the dome. The group were then attacked by S.H.I.E.L.D. sentry robots, which had been placed under the Leader's control. In the ensuing battle, Elloe stabbed the Leader in the chest. The Leader then absorbed the Dome's power, turning into a gray-skinned giant. Hiroim stopped him, killing himself in the process. Before dying he passed on his old power to Kate, who protected the remaining people from an attacking monster.; The Bureau of Alien Neutralization went after the Warbound as they were illegal aliens, and sent in their best operative, Kelly Koh. She managed to capture the Warbound and put them in stasis. Koh would later proceed to do the same thing to Skaar. They were on her ship when Koh went after the Silver Surfer, but during her fight against him and the Fantastic Four, the Blood of Galactus soon arrived to attack Earth. Left with no other choice, Koh decided to ally with the Surfer and on his suggestion she freed Skaar and the Warbound. Collaborating with the Fantastic Four, Skaar imbued both Korg and the Thing with the Old Power in order to fight the Blood.; The heroes soon arrived to the B.A.N. Headquarters in Earth Orbit, where they were confronted by the U.S. Air Force due to the alien threat posed not only by the Blood but also Skaar and the Warbound. The Surfer intervened by dismantling the headquarters and the Air Force's ships without harming anyone, only to be banished by B.A.N.'s owner, Dennis Harmon, powered by the Blood. Koh, now imbued with the Surfer's power, proceeded to kill Harmon, and feeling guilt for hunting down innocent creatures, restructured the station into a safe haven for those who had been harmed in this conflict, which included Skaar and the Warbound.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Otherworld; Formerly:; Unlocated R.C.X.'s prison, Britain; Braddock Manor, England; Cloud Nine, beneath St Oswald's Church, Liverpool, England; Muir Island, Scotland; various others
+Notes: During Otherworld battle, Captain U.K. stated that the Warpies were from an alternate reality and were brought by the R.C.X. on Earth-616.; This statement wasn't denied but strongly oppose to all the informations we had on the Warpies, including the fact that the. Mastermind soon later affirm the same.; This seems to be a mistake.
+History:
+===Origin===; The Warpies were children mutated by unstable dimensional energies released after the reality manipulations of Mad Jim Jaspers. Their exogenetic mutations caused them to suffer, die young, sometimes during spectacular explosions. Also, they give them super-human abilities and/or unusual morphology.; They were named Warpies by the R.C.X. because of their relations with Jaspers reality manipulation, commonly named as Jaspers Warp.; ===Sent to Braddock Manor===; The Warpies were discovered in London, and were one by one taken from their families to a vast prison where some of them were turned into government agents or simply studied, away from the public.; Concerned that R.C.X. commander Peter (Nigel Orpington-Smythe) planned to turn the children into a parahuman army, some R.C.X. agents, including Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel, tried to hide the Warpies and forced Brian Braddock (alias Captain Britain) to take the Warpies into his home of Braddock Manor, figuring that he could lend them much needed protection, both physical and politically. However, the agents' decision to not fully inform the hero of their situation meant he was reluctant to help.; Released by Meggan by accident, the Cherubim attacked the Manor, before Cherub Whirlwind's deaths. The Warpies were then placed under the care of the Braddock Manor robot Mastermind who was planning Captain Britain's fall and the ascension of a new order with the R.C.X. agents.; Joshua N'Dingi, the heir of Mbangawi's kingdom, was sent to England where he became a member of R.C.X. He was hideously scarred when a Warpie baby exploded in his face. The British government spent millions outfitting him with cybernetic parts. He kept from his experience an hatred for the Warpies.; ===No more new Warpies===; It was stated by Roma and Braddock's computer Mastermind that Linda McQuillan, as an anomaly from the now erased Earth-238, was preventing Earth-616 from healing of his wounds caused by James Jaspers' reality-manipulations: The continuous birth of Warpies and the existence of the Crazy Gang. Leaving Earth-616 to Otherworld, the Warp-children ceased appearing, until the appearance of a new ones, several years after.; Then, under Roma's direction, Mastermind decided to look after Braddock Manor's Warpies, inviting Michael that he and the R.C.X. were welcome to assist him, but he was the only in command.; Through an association with the W.H.O., some of the R.C.X. Warpies were relocated to Muir Island, in Moira MacTaggert's care. The Island was soon attacked but the Warpies were unharmed. Their fate was unknown.; ===Cloud Nine===; Eventually, Peter and his Cloud Nine recaptured the Warpies and his errant agents, bombing the Braddock Manor and kidnapping the children. Peter used the powers of the Warpies to make the underground complex Cloud Nine. He then formed different Warpie teams for various purposes, including the Advocates and the Seraphim, as well as the already existing Cherubim.; When many Warpies started to lose their super powers as a result of the change in Merlyn's Cosmic Convergence, Peter captured the British super team Excalibur and told them they were suffering from the same genetic defects as the Warpies did, presenting them as mutants, in the hope that they would cure the Warpies as well as join his organization.; However Excalibur learned of his true plans and engage battle with the Warpies teams. As the heroes were about to lose, many weaker warpies joined the fight on their side, and a massive melee started in Cloud Nine, stopped by the defeat of Peter. The freed R.C.X. agents and Excalibur ally Alistaire Stuart took command of R.C.X. and took care of the Warpies.; ===War on Otherworld===; The Warpies were later abducted and mutated by Black Air and then used as weapons by the robot Mastermind under the guise of Roma, who tried to take control of Otherworld, destroying a lot of the Captain Britain Corps members. The Cherubim were used as Mastermind's elite corps.; After a team of mutated and armored warpies led by Widget attacked Captain UK, Excalibur rebanded and came to Otherworld.; The robot was eventually defeated by the newly formed Excalibur, and Captain Britain was appointed Otherworld's new leader and he used his powers and Excalibur sword to cure all Warpies present and possibly all warpies in the Multiverse. The Warpies were now ordinary human children again.; It was revealed that all those events were been planed by Widget and Kang the Conqueror, for an unrevealed purpose.; ===Revolution (Event)===; Leader of X-Force, Pete Wisdom, bombed a Secret Service laboratory who dissected Warpies, and blaming Alistaire Stuart to haven't closed down this lab when he became the leader of the Office of Paranormal Activities. He then warned him about secret services, such as Black Air, violating human right, especially those of mutants, promising to look closer into them.

There they would be surprised to hear the news, but would be weary of any trickery from Loki.; They would be shocked to find that Thor had not returned, but his powers had been given to a mortal woman. When presented with a female version of Thor, the Warriors Three would lay on the charm and convince her to stay in Asgard. Thordis would not respond well and literally force away their advances, getting her banished from Asgard.; The subsequent activities of the Warriors Three remain unrevealed.

+In this reality, when the shuttle that brought the Hulk to Earth exploded, the Hulk saved his wife Caiera by tossing her out of the explosion's range.

The Warbound regrouped together with Caiera, and Miek was driven mad with grief upon learning of the Hulk's death and leapt into a pool of lava trying to find the Hulk. This led to Miek's death, and his betrayal never coming to light. Caiera ordered the Warbound to rally Sakaar's troops in order for them to journey to Earth in order to punish the humans whom they blamed for the shuttle's explosion. Elloe and the Warbound made quick work of all the Earth's heroes and killed the Ilumminati members responsible for exiling the Hulk.; Caiera wished to destroy the Earth in order to avenge the destruction of Sakaar, but Hiroim convinced her that killing the humans would mean that no one would be left to honor her husband. Caiera agreed to spare the Earth but instead enslaved it and forced the heroes to build a gigantic stone monument of the Hulk. She then merged with it so that she would be together with her husband forever.

+History:
+The Warriors were an ad-hoc team created by S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Quake to resist Hydra after it took over the United States. Quake was forced to hide after her team the Moth Squadron was wiped out by the Wrecking Crew. She sent out a call for help, but the only ones to respond to the call were Ms. Marvel, Moon Girl, and Moon Girl's partner Devil Dinosaur.; After busting up a Hydra caravan transporting Inhuman prisoners and recruiting the Inhuman Inferno, the Warriors attacked an Inhuman prisoner camp in New Jersey and rescued the Inhuman royal Karnak. Karnak told the team that there was a certain Inhuman named Leer that could help turn the tide against Hydra. So, the Warriors traveled west in search for this Inhuman. After fighting off the brainwashed Howling Commandos, the Warriors crashed through a gate on the border of the United States and the mutant nation of New Tian.; After ditching the mutant guards that were escorting them out of New Tian, the Warriors stumbled upon a laboratory run by the evil mutant scientist Dark Beast where was experimenting on Inhumans. After a brutal interrogation by Quake and Karnak, Dark Beast admitted that he had Leer once but had turned him over to Hydra. After mutant forces of New Tian had arrived, Dark Beast was handed over to them who then ordered the Warriors to leave. However, the Warriors were intercepted by Hydra forces led by Quake's notorious father Mister Hyde.; Back by by Hydra's Avengers, Hydra captured the Warriors and took them prisoner aboard a Hydra Helicarrier. The Warriors were able to stage an escape after Quake used her seismic powers to fatally disable the Helicarrier. The Warriors abandoned the Helicarrier with help from New Tian's mutants except for Moon Girl who stayed aboard to rescue her partner Devil Dinosaur. She unexpectedly encountered Leer before being captured by Mister Hyde.; Moon Girl and Leer were taken by Mister Hyde to the Inhuman city of New Attilan, which Hydra had turned into an internment camp for NuHumans and Inhumans like them. The Warriors learned where the two were being held from Moon Girl herself after transferring consciousness with Devil Dinosaur. Upon arriving in New Attilan, the Warriors found Moon Girl and Leer and learned that Dark Beast's experiments had activated powers within Leer, which allowed him to boost the powers of other Inhumans. Leer then used his powers to boost the powers of the Warriors so they could lead the Inhuman prisoners of New Attlian in an uprising against Hydra. With help from the Underground, Hydra was forced out of New Attilan. The Warriors then had to rescue Quake after she was taken by Mister Hyde. They knocked Hyde's ship out of the sky while Karnak struck Hyde's pressure points to stop him for good.; The Warriors disbanded soon after Hydra's fall but were forced to reunite to prevent Quake from killing Deadpool in revenge for killing Agent Coulson. They were then forced to ban together after learning that Dark Beast had taken Inferno's niece Ariela under orders from Mister Sinister to get back at Karnak for ending their deal to recreate the Terrigenesis process.; With help from Magik, the Warriors located Mister Sinister's laboratory. They didn't find Ariela, but they did find other Inhuman children Sinister and Dark Beast had been experimenting on. While trying to get the children back to their homes, they were confronted by Sinister, Dark Beast, and a team of creatures under their command. Sinister decided to leave the Warriors alone but warned them he would only give back Ariela if Karnak allowed him to "finish what they started." As the Warriors were returning the last child to his home, they discovered too late that the child was rigged to explode by Sinister.; The Warriors escaped injury thanks to Magik, but they were branded criminals and forced to stay in New Attilan until the situation was sorted out. After learning from Leer that Terrigen Crystals were hidden in the Inhuman throne room, Inferno broke into the throne room, stole the crystals, and took off in a stolen ship in a desperate attempt to rescue his niece. The Warriors were unable to stop Inferno from meeting up with Sinister, but they were able to rescue Ariela. The Warriors later met up with Karnak and confronted Sinister at Karnak's Tower of Wisdom where Sinister had set up a new laboratory. Magik later showed up with a large contingent of Inhumans to fight off Sinister's Inhuman soldiers. Sinister was about to use Inferno as a sacrifice in order to recreate the Terrigenesis process, but he was thwarted by Moon Girl when she smashed a vial containing Terrigen Mists that nearly poisoned Sinister to death.; Karnak then revealed that he used the whole situation to take control of the Ennilux Corp. so he could hand its control over to Moon Girl who he believed was the perfect person to lead the Inhumans and finish the recreation of the Terrigensis process. Moon Girl rebuked Karnak and returned control of Ennilux to Ahura Boltagon. For their actions, interim Inhuman leader Iso banished Inferno and Karnak from New Attilan. The Warriors later disbanded again but on good terms.

+The Warrior Machines Three were a group of acclaimed Asgardins heroes. They were present when Stark Odinson requested the All-Father Howard Odin permission to join them in battle as an armor-clad warrior. The Warrior Machines Three stepped in after Stark had an outburst due to being rejected and he attacked his adoptive brother Stane. As a result, Howard banished Stark to Midgard, stripping him of his godhood in the process.; Five years later, Malekith assaulted Asgard and restrained all of its inhabitants, including the Warrior Machines Three; using the Nidavellir-Ring to encase them in bubbles of transparent Uru. Stark soon returned to his home, having become the heroic Iron Hammer. When he confronted Malekith, the villain attempted to disintegrate him with a ray of Odin-Force from the Asgard-Ring. Stark evaded the attack using the B.I.F.R.O.S.T., deflecting the ray into the bubble holding the Warrior Machines Three captives. The heroes charged into battle, but Malekith used the combined abilities of the Heven, Jotunheim, Muspelheim and Nidavellir-Rings to subdue them again. Despite their quick foundering, the distraction allowed Stark to strike Malekith and then overpower him, since he had depleted his rings' powers on the Warrior Machines Three, ultimately resulting in the Elf-King's death.

Acting on a summons from their creator, the War Toys infiltrated the complex and launched an assault in order to free her from captivity.; Following the defeat of Ultron at the hands of the Avengers, the War Toys were deployed to recover the Avengers’ mental engrams for Alkhema. These mind-pattern recordings were intended to aid in her future experiments and creations.; Later, the Avengers traced Alkhema to an underground stronghold in Egypt, where she had built a robotic civilization sometimes referred to as “Robotopia,” populated by robotic beings and Bio-Synthezoids. While the Avengers explored the underground city, the War Toys ambushed and subdued them.; The Avengers eventually escaped captivity and resumed the battle. The conflict escalated further when both Grim Reaper and Ultron arrived and entered the fray. Throughout the confrontation, the War Toys fought alongside Alkhema’s forces against all intruders.; The battle came to an end when Hawkeye destroyed Alkhema with a vibranium-tipped arrow. With Alkhema’s destruction, her underground base erupted in a catastrophic explosion, presumably destroying the War Toys along with it.

+History:
+The Warriors Three were a group of Asgardian Warriors and close allies of Thor since his youth. While they had many adventures alongside Thor, Loki and Sif, it was their unsanctioned attack on Jotunheim that left them most infamous. In this action they personally engaged both King Laufey and his army of jotuns, before Odin himself came to their rescue. While they were severely chastised over their indiscretion, it was Thor who had led them and thus Thor who suffered the greatest punishment when he was banished to Midgard (Earth).; With Thor absent, Loki soon placed himself on the throne of Asgard. The Warriors Three and Sif could do little to stop him and eventually resolved to carry news of Loki's Betrayal to Thor. To that end they approached Heimdall for assistance, and while he refused to actively aid them, he did turn his back and passively allow them to use the Bifrost in order to make the journey to Earth.; Loki then sent the Destroyer after the Warriors Three to prevent Thor from becoming a threat to his rule when they informed him of Loki's treachery. They swore to hold it off to protect the humans and the de-powered Thor, but the Warriors Three and Sif were quickly overpowered and defeated by the construct. Only when Thor himself stood up to the Destroyer, despite lacking his former power, did he become worthy to wield Mjolnir again. Once Thor had defeated the Destroyer, the Warriors Three returned with him to Asgard where they parted company to let Thor confront his treacherous brother alone.; Over the next two years, the Warriors Three accompanied Thor and Lady Sif as they brought peace to the Nine Realms, following the Bifrost's destruction during Thor and Loki's duel. Their peace efforts culminated in the Battle of Vanaheim, where they put an end to a Marauder pillage. Hogun chose to remain behind on Vanaheim, to be with his people, while Fandral and Volstagg celebrated in Asgard.; A couple days later, chaos erupted in Asgard's prison. Fandral and Volstagg, along with Thor, moved to quell the fighting, but the prison break was later revealed to be merely a distraction to allow the Dark Elves to invade Asgard. Fandral and Volstagg fought off as many as they could, but ultimately, Asgard and the throne were left weakened by the destruction of their shields and the death of the Queen Frigga.; Feeling his father was blinded by rage over the death of his beloved, Thor requested Fandral and Volstagg's aid on a treasonous mission that could get them banished. Thor sought to break out Loki from his prison cell, in order for him to bring Thor and his human lover Jane Foster to Svartalfheim, which Thor hoped would lure the Dark Elves out of Asgard. Fandral and Volstagg participated in Thor's ruse, and wound up arrested by the Einherjar.; At some point over the next three years, Fandral and Volstagg were exonerated, as they, along with Hogun, were leading the Einherjar once again when Hela returned to Asgard. Being the first line of defense against external threats, the Warriors Three tried to incapacitate Hela, but her ancient power proved too strong, and she slaughtered Fandral, Volstagg, and Hogun, as well as the entire Einherjar.

+Base of operations: Asgard; Formerly:; Hel
+History:
+The past history of the Warriors Three mirrors that of his Earth-616 counterpart, with one minor different in his origins. On Earth-9997, all the Asgardians were a previously unknown race of aliens that were manipulated by the Celestials centuries ago. As part of the third tier of mutation in the Celestials plans, once a species reached a certain evolutionary point their appearance, super-human abilities and character were defined by those around them. When these aliens arrived on Earth centuries ago, they were convinced by a man named Donnerson (who was manipulated by Mephisto and would later become Odin) that they were the Asgardians of myth. Three of these aliens would become the Warriors Three.; In recent history, when Loki and Thor had learned the truth of their origins, they would conspire to bring down Odin and free their virtually enslaved people. Part of their plan involved accompanying Dr. Strange and Xen to Asgard to free Clea who had been Odin's prisoner for some years. In order to provide opposition, Odin would summon various beings from all over Asgard to combat these invaders, including the Warriors Three. Thor, Loki, Dr. Strange and Xen would battle all assemble including the Warriors Three. Although the appearance of the Warriors Three shook Thor's resolve, he stuck true to his cause and was forced to kill his long time friends.; The Warriors Three and the others would be sent to Hel, however when Thor was banished there as well in exchange for Clea's freedom, The Warriors Three and the others would be freed when he showed them that they could cheat Death. When Odin's lies were revealed, the Warriors Three would briefly return to their previously undefined forms with the rest of those of Asgard, but would return to their original role after Odin's plea for them to return. Their fate following this, and if they resumed teir earlier role remains to be recorded.

+The Warriors Three were some of the numerous warriors of the different realms trapped by Ultron inside a magic mirror in Asgardia, a seemingly impregnable mirror that drained its prisoners from their power.; Thor showed the fate of his fellow warriors to the time-displaced Avengers when they escaped from Doctor Doom's clutches, who had manipulated them to overthrow Ultron and take his place. The past Iron Man noticed that the mirror let light pass through, so he fired a high-intensity laser at it for Beta Ray Bill to power up his hammer. The hammer managed to absorb enough energy and shattered the mirror with a powerful strike, freeing all of its prisoners.; When Doom's drone army attacked Asgardia, the Warriors Three and the other free warriors fought together with the time-displaced Avengers. Eventually, the heroes from the past were able to convince Doom to cease attacking, and also to free the Earth from his iron fist. Doom would later welcome the Asgardians as Earth's protectors.

+History:
+Weapon X was one of two teams brought together by the Timebreakers in an attempt to repair the damage they had caused to the multiverse. While their sister-team the Exiles was generally made up of more heroic individuals, Weapon X brought together morally grey individuals, generally hardened killers who would not shy away from doing whatever needed to be done.; The first iteration of the team was composed mostly of former Weapon X operatives, prompting them to name their group "Weapon X". Sabretooth of Earth-295 emerged as the leader of the group and wielded the Tallus on their missions. The group sustained at least four casualties during their early missions, eventually leaving Sabretooth and Deadpool as the only original members. Many of these missions were morally dubious, such as murdering 50 Morlocks, blowing up Avengers Mansion, crippling Doctor Strange and inciting a war between Atlantis and the Inhumans.; Sabretooth occasionally tried to temper the group and avoid the missions, but ultimately, they were always forced to comply in order to be able to move on. Weapon X first encountered their sister-team during a mission to capture the Hulk. Sabretooth was shocked to discover that they were led by his adopted daughther Blink, but they were teleported away before the two could make contact.; They were re-united once more shortly thereafter when the two groups teamed up on Earth-2600, with a mission to rescue David Richards, a young boy held in a mutant internment camp, who would grow up to liberate mutantkind from the Sentinels. By this time, the team consisted of Sabretooth, Deadpool, Vision, Hulk, Spider and Storm.; The team-up proved shortlived however, as Weapon X was given a mission to kill Richards, who would grow up to be a bitter tyrant and enslave the world. Unable to stomach killing a child, the Exiles, joined by Sabretooth, tried to stop Weapon X, going so far as to kill Deadpool. The two teams managed to solve the issue when Sabretooth volonteered to remain behind on Earth-2600 in order to raise David to be a good man.; Weapon X carried on their missions, with Sabretooth replaced by Gambit and Deadpool replaced by Angel. The team was soon sent on a mission to Earth-42777 to assist Iron Man, this world's tyrannical dictator, in finding the Inhuman city of Attilan. The group won Stark's trust and helped him secure the key to the city, though they lost Hulk in the process, who was quickly replaced by Colossus. While Black Bolt chose to destroy the city and kill his people rather than allow them to fall into Stark's hands, the group's mission was still successful, as they had unknowingly ensured Stark's death at the hands of Black Bolt's widow, Susan Storm.; Weapon X lost Angel at some point, who was replaced by Ms. Marvel. During a mission to stop Bruce Banner, the team also lost Storm, who died in Gambit's arms. She was replaced by King Hyperion, an immensely powerful superhuman. Hyperion had no interest in completing the Timebreakers' missions. After learning that their mission this time was to complete the extinciton of mutantkind by killing the 10 last mutants on Earth, Hyperion decided instead to ensure that at least one mutant survived so that the mission would not be completed, while he conquered the world. When Vision opposed the idea, Hyperion effortlessly destroyed him.; While the rest of the Exiles fell into line, Hyperion's plans were complicated by Magneto, who had sent an asteroid on a crash course towards Earth, which upon impact would end all human life. While Hyperion tried to force him to stop the asteroid, he was unsuccessful, and also failed in his attempt to destroy it himself. With the Earth ruined, he decided to complete the mission, killing Colossus in the process. Hulk and Firestar were brought onto the team as they moved on to another reality.; With Hyperion and Ms. Marvel proving unruly and difficult to control, Gambit began lying to the team in order to manipulate them into completing the missions. While Hulk and Firestar shared his desire to to simply complete the missions in the hopes of eventually going home, Hyperion soon caught on to Gambit's deceptions and blasted his arm off. This prompted a brawl within the team, as Hulk and Firestar attempted to take Hyperion down, who was supported by Ms. Marvel and Spider. Gambit escaped into the sewers, biding his time while Hyperion attempted to conquer the Earth. He was soon joined by the Exiles, who had been sent by the Timebreakers to stop Hyperion.; Despite not receiving a mission upon arriving on this new Earth, the Tallus finally spoke to Gambit upon the arrival of the Exiles; of the two teams assembled, only six total members would move on, the rest must die. As the Exiles prepared to attack Hyperion, they were betrayed by Magik, who in her desperation to survive attempted to join Hyperion and revealed the mission to him. Hyperion killed her anyways, just to test if the Timebreakers would send someone new upon her death. As Hyperion executed his former teammate Hulk, Firestar chose to take herself out in a desperate attempt to kill Hyperion, but only succeeded in killing Spider, leaving Hyperion, Ms. Marvel and Gambit as the remaining Weapon X survivors.; Ms. Marvel was killed in the battle, while the Exiles managed to cripple Hyperion. Gambit sacrificed himself to kill the tyrant, ending Weapon X with him.; ==List of Members==; The founding members were; Kane, Deadpool, and Sabretooth.; Founding member Kane was killed by a counterpart of Namor and replaced with the Vision. He was later sent home.; Founding member, Deadpool, who was first "killed" by Sabretooth, who snapped his neck. He was later killed again in the Crystal Palace by the female Hulk (Jen Walters). He was NOT sent home.; Founding member, Sabretooth first appeared as a Weapon X subject. He stayed behind on a world ruled by Sentinels; Mesmero. He was killed and later confirmed dead.

He was killed and then later confirmed dead. He wasn't immediately replaced until after some missions by the second wave of recruits (Hulk (Jen Walters), Storm, and Daredevil). He was later sent home.; Maverick, founding member who was killed when he was impaled by a razor-pointed throwing shield from a counterpart of Captain America. He wasn't immediately replaced until after some missions by the second wave of recruits (Hulk, Storm, and Daredevil). He was later sent home.; Daredevil, second wave of recruits. He was later confirmed to be dead. He was sent home alive however.; Hulk (Jen Walters), second wave of recruits. Was pulled into the Negative Zone but was actually in stasis in the Panoptichron; Storm, second wave of recruits.

Later sent home for burial.; Angel, Iron Man's replacement. Replaced by Ms. Marvel for unknown reasons. Was in stasis showing stable life-signs in the Panoptichron. Sent home and returned to his mercenary work.; Colossus, replaced Hulk (Jen Walters). Died when he ran out of oxygen after being blasted into the vacuum of space by Hyperion. Later sent home for burial.; Ms. Marvel, Angel's replacement. Killed in battle with Morph. Later sent home for burial.; Hyperion, replaced Storm. Questioned the Timebroker's motive and decided to rule Earths instead of fulfilling the team's missions. Was first "killed" by Gambit and the Exiles; Hulk (Robert Bruce Banner), replaced Colossus, was there to kill Hyperion and failed. Later sent home for burial.; Firestar replaced Vision, was there to kill Hyperion and failed. Killed in the backlash of her own powers while killing the Spider. Was NOT sent home for burial, because she cremated herself.; The team was eventually destroyed when the Timebroker wanted to downsize both teams in hopes of killing off Hyperion.

+History:
+The Weaponeers are a group of arms dealers and weapons experts who use their superior technology to terrorize people and countries.; They first encountered the X-Treme Sanctions Executive when they assaulted the citizens of the Central Saharan Republic, claiming the land and people under the reign of Achmed Al-Khalad. Most of them, including their sergeant, were captured, but some were on a plane with the captain when the team fled, teleporting from Cannonball's attacks.; They were later hired by the Hellfire Club led by Sat-Yr-Nin, who wanted to conquer Genosha by using Zanzibar as an advance base. They were confronted by the Genoshan Excalibur, Mutantes sans Frontières, and one of its associates: Jono Baraka, president of Tanzania and also known as the mutant superhero "Askari the Spear". The Weaponeers ended up double-crossing Viper and Sat-Yr-Nin. In retaliation, Viper shot Scimitar in the back, killing him.; During an attempt to take control of the nation of Zanzibar, they were confronted to the X-Men Psylocke, Bishop, Marvel Girl, and Storm.; The X-Men were close to victory when the Scarlet Witch warped the reality into a mutant-dominated Earth.; Their currents whereabouts are unknown.

+Base of operations: New York City
+Notes: The scene depicting Earth-7085 is a reference to the double-page spread in Ultimate Fantastic Four Vol 1 32 which takes place after the Marvel Zombies' devouring of Galactus in Marvel Zombies Vol 1 5.; In the original scene from Ultimate Fantastic Four #32, Doctor Doom is shown appearing through a portal. In the scene from Marvel Zombies vs Army of Darkness #5, no counterpart to Ultimate Doom arrived (Ash arrived in a different area). This could either mean a counterpart to Ultimate Doom arrived later, or events for the Fantastic Four of the Werewolf reality (and whatever Earth they tried to invade) went differently with the Werewolf Fantastic Four possibly succeeding in their plans thanks to having regenerative powers and no decaying flesh like their Earth-2149 counterparts for Doom to exploit on.; Curiously in this universe, Captain America (or possibly this world's version of Colonel America) and Black Widow are seen alive while Iron Man isn't. It could be assumed that since these are werewolves instead of zombies, events went much differently in the Werewolf Reality than they did in the Marvel Zombies Reality. A zombie Iron Man, being undead, would survive being blasted in half by the Silver Surfer, while a werewolf Iron Man likely would not.; Captain/Colonel America, Luke Cage, Spider-Man, and Wolverine show no signs of similar injuries that their Earth-2149 counterparts received. Since werewolves have regenerative healing ability and enhanced agility while zombies don't, it's assumed that the injuries the Marvel Werewolves received were minimal or easy to recover from due to their healing powers.; Captain America being a werewolf could also be an intentional reference to the seminal CapWolf.
+History:

+History:
+The West Coast Ultimates were a S.H.I.E.L.D. super human unit, a secret version of the known super hero team. After failing to find terrorist Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, Wonder Man hulked-out, forcing his teammates to fight him. This situation, along the team's previous rogue attitude, made S.H.I.E.L.D. decide they were too dangerous. Nick Fury decided to put them in stasis tubes until they were truly needed.; Nick Fury planned to use the West Coast Ultimates against the Maker and the Children of Tomorrow, but didn't. During the civil war, California tried to become an independent country, but they were forced by president Captain America to keep being a part of the United States. The special adviser to California's governor, Spokesperson Ford discovered about the West Coast Ultimates, taking them from S.H.I.E.L.D. scientist Hugo Lopez's lab and decided to unleash them against the Ultimates. The first released Ultimate was Black Knight, who attacked Tony Stark.; Tigra and Quake attacked the White House while Black Knight headed to the Moon in order to confront Thor and the Invisible Woman. Vision's task was to enter Stark Industries' J-RICE Orbital Energy Platform and destroy it, although he revealed to have made a separate deal with Ford, which was to reprogram the J-RICE and make it fall in California, so Captain America and his government would be blamed for the "attack".; When Quake realized Ford's new plan, she alerted Captain America, who had just knocked out Tigra, about the upcoming catastrophe. Black Knight was seemingly defeated by Thor on the Moon and Wonder Man was released by Ford in order to battle Iron Man, who had just escaped Ford's captivity.; California was saved when Iron Man Armor's power sources increased the power of the thunderstrike of Thor's Mjolnir, and allowed it to destroy the J-RICE before it reached Earth, and the Invisible Woman contained the explosion with the help of one of the gems she was looking for in the Moon. The West Coast Ultimates' following fate was unknown.

+Affiliation: Formerly:; Spider-Army
+Equipment: Dimensional Travel Watches
+Transportation: Web of Life and Destiny
+History:
+After the Inheritors were defeated by the Spider-Army, Spider-UK couldn't return to his reality because it had been destroyed in an Incursion. He decided to remain in Loomworld, the Inheritors' former base, and use the Web of Life and Destiny to travel the Multiverse protecting universes whose Spider-Totems had been killed by the Inheritors. Spider-Girl was willing to join him in order to better utilize her knowledge of the Great Web and the intricate related mythology due to her time in the Spider Society, and together they became the Warriors of the Great Web, a name christened by Karn, the Master Weaver. Feeling this was too much of a mouthful, Spider-UK and Spider-Girl took to calling the team the Web-Warriors in honor of a team by that name established by the Miles Morales of Earth-1610 and Peter Parker of Earth-12041 during the Totem War.; ===Secret Wars===; When the Multiverse was destroyed and recreated in the form of Battleworld, the Warriors of the Great Web were recreated in the domain of Arachnia. While trying to find out about her counterpart's life and death, Gwen Stacy snuck into Ozcorp's Special Projects division, and discovered Peter Porker. She escaped of the building after being discovered by Osborn, and was later found by Paviitr, Anya, and Billy. Prabhakar brought them to his hideout, where he had created a machine to track the exotic resonances of the spider-heroes in this dimension; the device subsequently picked up another Spider. The signal brought the spider-heroes to the Brooklyn Navy Yard, where they stopped the criminals Carnage and Tombstone, and discovered the origin of the signal, the Spider-Man from the Noir Universe. The spiders were soon interrupted by the arrival of the Sinister Six.; The Sinister Six defeated the Spider-Men and brought them to Norman Osborn, who stated he wanted to help them and showed no ulterior motives. Using a similar procedure to Paviitr's, Osborn had developed lenses that could focus in fifth-dimensional space, and created the mapping of a tattered web that appeared to be the structure of the universe, using the resonances of the heroes. All of the spider-heroes but Gwen decided to stay at the Ozcorp Tower. When she went to the Mount Olivet Cemetery to visit the gravestone of her deceased counterpart, she was startled by the arrival of this domain's native Peter Parker. Gwen and Peter were soon attacked by Venom, who was sent by Osborn to follow Gwen at a discreet distance; and Peter, who had lost his powers a long time ago, was captured by him, but Gwen was able to save him and defeat Venom. Afterwards, Gwen devised a plan to defeat Osborn and put it into motion.; Peter sent a photo of himself to Osborn, proving he was still alive and well, alongside a message for them to meet at the George Washington Bridge, which destabilized him. As he prepared himself and his Sinister Six to go after Parker, Anya Corazon took the other Spider-Men to see Norman's "Caesars Palace," which Porker mentioned to her when they were having lunch. Inside the room was the Siege Perilous, the chair reserved for the man who finds the Holy Grail, and hanging above it was a helmet linked to the the chamber where the energies of the web were being directed. According to Porker, whenever Osborn started to get really mad and complaining about how he was going to overthrow God Doom, he went to this room to sit in its chair. Suddenly, the room started to be filled by lightning bolts and a Thor appeared before them to reclaim the chair.; Peter confronted Osborn in order to expose him as a mad man, and distract him long enough to help Spider-Woman, who had returned to Ozcorp Tower. The other Spiders were busy trying to prove the Thor they were not a threat, and Spider-Woman convinced Electro to help them by destroying the Siege Perilous to show the Thor they were on her side. The chair surged into a feedback loop that caused an explosion which destroyed the entire floor. Osborn returned shortly after, and took the advantage of all of the spiders being unconscious in the same place to tap into the chair's power. After being rescued by Spider-Ham, Peter disrupted the chair, knocking Osborn unconscious. The Sinister Six appeared immediately after the spiders had recovered, ready to destroy them now that Osborn was out of the picture. Paviitr threatened the Sinister Six with using the chair to boost their powers, and the villains called his bluff, prompting them to surrender. With Osborn defeated, the heroes concluded that the domain would go through dire times due to the lack of authority, but they were ready to help it.; ===Electro-Verse===; Following the restoration of the Multiverse, the Web-Warriors returned to the reformed Earth-001 and continued protecting those realities who had lost their Spiders. The first major challenge they faced was the appearance of their counterpart composed of Electros from across different realities, the Electro-Verse.; The Warriors of the Great Web first took notice of the Electro-Verse when the Spider-Women of Earth-65 and Earth-982, Gwen Stacy and May Parker, respectively, came across several Electros robbing silver on Earth-9105. The confrontation between the two Spider-Women and the Electros resulted in the capture of Gwen when they attempted to teleport away for reinforcements.; While Stacy's teammates were investigating her disappearance on Earth-9105, and even came across a handful of Electros trying to retrieve the silver they were previously stealing, Gwen managed to convince a dissatisfied Electro, that of Earth-449, to free her and together overthrow the leader of the Electro-Verse. When they reached his base, Spider-Woman was surprised when she discovered their leader was a disembodied gestalt being known as the Battery.; Loomworld was soon raided by numerous Electros who tracked down the energy signature of the Web-Warrior's bracelets, forcing the heroes to retreat to the rustic Earth-803 of Lady Spider. Meanwhile, Spider-Woman had failed to confront the Battery, and teleported to Earth-982 to seek the assistance of Ben Parker.; Together with Ben, Spider-Woman and the rogue Electro visited Earth-112255, the location of the Electros' navigation system, and destroyed it, leaving them blind to traverse the Web of Life and Destiny. In the course of this mission, they gained an ally, a benevolent alternate version of Doctor Octopus called Octavia Otto, who was being exploited by the Electro-Verse together with an army of Doctor Octopi.; At the same time Spider-Woman and Octavia Otto attempted to use a tele-consciousness rig to erase the Battery's mind but failed, the rest of the Web-Warriors used a jerry-rigged contraption to contact the Electro-Verse and lure them to Earth-803. Almost the entirety of the Electro-Verse arrived to Earth-803, and the Warriors of the Great Web confronted them and held the line until they could create a Faraday cage using a special conductive webbing, in order to neutralize the Electros' power. Spider-Woman also forcibly teleported the Battery to the cage. However, in order to ensure the Electros remained trapped, Spider-UK and May Parker remained trapped within the cage.; The Web-Warriors returned to Earth-001, but soon discovered they couldn't return to Earth-803 or track Billy and May's bracelets. Additionally, the Web of Life and Destiny began to deteriorate, causing realities to bleed together. Karn and Octavia Otto managed to fix the Web, but tangled it at the same time, causing the Web Warriors to become split between realities while they were assisting Spider-Punk's home reality from being invaded by forces from other universes. Karn's reconnection of Earth-803 into the web also caused an earthquake that destroyed the Faraday cage and freed the Electros.; Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Man India and Spider-Ham found themselves stuck in Noir's universe, while Gwen was teleported to Spider-Ham's reality, and Lady Spider, Spider-Girl, MegaMorph Spider-Man and Spider-Punk remained in the latter's universe.; The Spiders in the Noir Universe investigated the unexpected technological growth in this universe, a consequence of the bleeding between realities which left an alternate spider-powered version of Harry Osborn stranded in the Noir universe. This seemingly friendly Osborn knocked out the heroes and showed his true nature after the damage to the Web was explained to him. Osborn concluded the damage to the Web of Life and Destiny was a consequence of the Web-Warrior's very own reality-hopping, wishing to exact revenge on the Web-Warriors for indirectly having separated him from his home reality, where he was on top of the world.; Meanwhile, the heroes in Spider-Punk's universe found a way to use the MegaMorph to re-establish connection with the rest of the Web-Warriors and return to them. At this same time, Octavia began to recruit Spider-Men and Women from across realities to assist Spider-UK and Spider-Woman in holding the line against the Electros. On her way to Earth-803, she rescued Gwen from Spider-Ham's world.; The ensuing fight between the Electros and Spider-People was a close match until the Battery got hold of the MegaMorph. Additionally, the megalomaniac Harry Osborn reverse-engineered the Spider-Men's bracelets and used the technology to travel to Loomworld to destroy the Web. As a last resort to defeat the Battery, Ben Parker used the previously-stolen tele-consciousness rig to have his mind absorbed into the Battery. The presence of Ben's conscience drastically altered the Battery's personality, and they demanded their fellow Electros to stop fighting.; As commanded by the Battery, the Electros unleashed their electrical capacity across the Web of Life and Destiny to untangle it and save it from being destroyed by Harry Osborn, who was eaten by Karn. With both crisis adverted, the Web-Warriors returned to Loomworld with the new recruits, and set out to continue protecting the Multiverse from any threat that endangered it.; ===Conflict Against Gog===; Later on, the Peter Parker of Earth-616 recruited Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, Spider-Punk, and Spider-Ham together in order to search for a loose end from his past; Gog.; ===Spider-Geddon===; When the Inheritors escaped their prison on Earth-3145, the Warriors of the Great Web began reassembling the Spider-Army and recruiting new Spiders from across the Multiverse.

While raiding a Weapon X lab, Warpath and Lady Deathstrike were rescued from containment.; Hulk and the mutants' ensuing investigation led them to the Weapon X Central Command in Serenity Hills, Texas, where they came face to face with Weapon X's most successful Wolverine/Hulk hybrid, H-Alpha. Following the destruction of the base and H-Alpha's escape, Hulk walked away on the mutants. Sabretooth encouraged the team to do what needed to be done, starting by taking back the name Weapon X, officially becoming a team.; After tracking down H-Alpha and freeing him from the control of Dr. Alba with the help from Wolverine, Weapon X answered a distress call from the mutant community of Santo Marco. Their actions resulted in the death of the tyrant dictator Emilio Duarte.; Citing his ailing health, Logan ceded field leadership of Weapon X to Sabretooth. For the team's first mission without him on the field, Logan deployed Weapon X in Siberia to kill Omega Red, who had taken over the Stranniy Corrective Labor Camp for mutants. Instead of killing Omega Red, Sabretooth decided to form an alliance with him to take down the person pulling his strings, Omega Red's estranged brother and director of S.I.C.K.L.E., Vassily Rossovich. Warpath quit the team, and tried to stop the rest of his teammates from helping Omega Red take down S.I.C.K.L.E. fearing an international conflict could result from it. Following Director Rossovich's death, the rest of Weapon X effectively cut ties with Logan. They decided to become mercenaries together with Omega Red, and in the process re-branded themselves as Weapon X-Force.; Mystique joined the team as the one in charge of receiving their contracts after Sabretooth finally accepted her offer to start taking mercenary jobs again. After weeks of successful missions and finally getting her payday, Domino was ready to resign from the team since she had more than enough money. She chose to stay when she heard their next mission was to rescue Monet St. Croix who was said to be Sabretooth's ex girlfriend, which Domino found adorable. They successfully saved Monet form the Church of Human Potential, a cult led by Reverend William Stryker. and she subsequently joined the team, along with Deadpool, whom Sabretooth bribed into joining. Their final mission was to bring down the cult and kill Stryker for good, a battle which lead them into the depths of Hell.; While they were successful in accomplishing their goal, it came at a price for Sabretooth, who was killed in his battle with a power-boosted Mentallo and sent back to Hell. His last act of heroism was to revive his son Graydon, whom he'd found earlier. Marduk Kurios came to claim him but he was in a lobotomized state and could only growl. Marduk concludes that his inversion has finally been undone but doesn't want to claim Victor in such a state. As a result, he released him into the Saskatchewan woods to embrace his true self and earn his way back to Hell. With Sabretooth gone, the team disbanded.

+History:
+After Onslaught-696 escaped into the Multiverse, destroying his Earth in the process, Phoenix-empowered Jean Grey from Earth-80777 assembled a team to hunt him down and willing to do what's necessary. To that end, she recruited five Wolverines from different realities and different points in their respective timelines: Weapon X from Earth-295, Old Man Logan from Earth-807128, Earth X Wolverine from Earth-9997, Jane Howlett from Earth-1281, and Zombie Wolverine from Earth-2149, whose undead hunger she temporarily suppressed with the Phoenix power. Explaining the danger that Onslaught posed to every reality and stressing that the Wolverines needed to make the hard choice when the time came, Jean send them to Earth-93068 where she believed Onslaught to be hiding.; The Wolverines met that world's Uncanny Avengers and explained to them the threat Onslaught posed to their world. Jean-93068 used the Cerebro to scan every mind on Earth, but found no trace of Onslaught. It was all too late found that Onslaught was not hiding in any one mind, but in almost every mind of the planet, having already taken over over billions of humans and superhumans alike. Jean-93068 ordered Spider-Man to initiate the Badoon Protocol: in the event of an extinction-level event, the magic users of Earth-93068 would create portals to rapidly evacuate the civilian population to a safe world through the Nexus of All Realities. Onslaught revealed itself, and the Wolverines battled the possessed heroes of Earth-93068 until Zombie Wolverine decided to use his Hunger Virus as a weapon, creating a horde of zombies that attacked and infected Onslaught-possessed heroes. With the aid of Phoenix-80777, Magik, Doctor Strange and others sorcerers of Earth-93068 were able to evacuate over a billion people in a matter of minutes before their entire planet was destroyed by Onslaught.; Phoenix-80777 had extracted the Wolverines and revealed to them that Onslaught was next targeting her homeworld of Earth-80777. Accompanying the team this time, she led them to the home of her family, where the engagement party of Scott and Madelyne's son Nathaniel Summers and Logan's daughter Amiko was taking place. Recruiting the support of the Sorcerer Supreme Illyana Rasputina, Phoenix and the Wolverines tracked Onslaught to the Savage Land, but walked into a trap, and Illyana was incapacitated. Realizing that Onslaught was targeting her family, Jean rushed to the engagement party, where she suspected that Onslaught was hiding inside Madelyne. However, Nathaniel was the one who was actually possessed by Onslaught, who managed to get a hold of Jean and started absorbing her Phoenix power. He was only stopped when Earth-X Wolverine sliced off Nathaniel's arm, prompting Onslaught to flee once again. Earth-80777 was saved, but Nathaniel was mortally wounded and had to be infected with Warlock's Techno-Organic Virus in order to survive, leading to Jean relationship with her family strained even further.; Continuing the hunt for Onslaught, the Phoenix send the Wolverines to Earth-31974. This time, Onslaught immediately revealed itself to them, and after effortlessly fighting off their attacks had proposed a truce. Onslaught explained that had to this world to realize the dream of his foundational persona Magneto and Jean Grey: make all mutants immortal, so that they could inherit the Earth. He performed a spell using the Lifeline Tablet, but the Tablet was seized and the spell went wrong, turning every human and mutant immortal but not invulnerable nor immune to pain. The pain of those who were suffering but could not die had crippled and debilitated Onslaught, who reached out to the Wolverines for help, knowing they would not leave an innocent world to endless suffer. Jane Howlett proposed a deal: they would only help if Onslaught promised to never interfere with any of their home world, including Phoenix's, and Onslaught accepted. He gave thema fragment of the Lifeline Tablet, which the Wolverines tracked to the Bloodstone Manor. There, they found Ulysses Bloodstone firmly possessed by Ulluxy'l Kwan Tae Syn who had entered into an alliance with Dracula and Selene. The three of them had interfered with Onslaught's ritual and stole the Lifeline Tablet to create a world full of undying prey to endlessly feast upon. The Wolverines attacked the villains, and during the battle Jane Howlett smashed the Tablet and broke the spell, restoring Earth-31974 to normal.; Onslaught made a secret offer to Old Man Logan: remove the others from his path in exchange to being taken back in time to before he had killed all of his friends. Making a hard choice of his own, the Old Man accepted. On yet another Earth he had incapacitated his teammates and send a mental distress call to the Phoenix. She arrived to back up her team, only to be literally stabbed in the back. Onslaught gave the wounded Jean an Ultimatum: surrender her Phoenix Force willingly, or he would have to destroy the world they stood on to rip it away from her. Backed into a corner, Jean accepted and passed the Phoenix Force she spend decades saving lives with over. This had an instant effect on Onslaught, negating the pain of his Jean Grey and Magneto and helping him realize the horrors of what he was doing. Old Man Logan confirmed that this was his plan all along, seeing as there was no way for them to beat Onslaught in direct confrontation. Jean-80777 commended him on his choice and said goodbye to her Phoenix Force, who departed with Onslaught to explore the Multiverse. With her remaining power, Jean send Jane, Weapon X and Earth-X Wolverines back home, send Zombie Wolverine to Earth-91 where his bites could not hurt anyone and stuck around with Old Man Logan for a while to explore the world in which they two and their friends all had their happy endings.

+Identity status: Secret
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: New York City
+Equipment: Tome of Zhered-Na
+Notes: The Witches were created by Brian Patrick Walsh and Mike Deodato Jr. (individual team members were created by separate writers).; The Witches roster is comprised of characters who were formerly supporting cast members from older, defunct titles. Jennifer Kale was a recurring character from Fear Vol 1, Satana was a spotlight character in Haunt of Horror Vol 2 magazine, and Topaz was a supporting cast member from Werewolf by Night Vol 1 and later, Doctor Strange Vol 2.
+Trivia: Jennifer Kale jokingly referred to their group as Charlie's Angels, a reference to a popular '70s television series featuring three female private detectives employed by an enigmatic boss known only as Charlie.
+History:
+Andy Kale, the younger brother of sorceress, Jennifer Kale, accepted a position working at the New York Public Library. He came into contact with an ancient mystical text known as the Tome of Zhered-Na. Ignorant of the fact that the book was bonded to the Kale family, Andy unwittingly used it to release a powerful demon known as Hellphyr. Hellphyr’s entrance into the Earth realm immediately triggered the mystic senses of sorcerer supreme, Doctor Strange. Recognizing the threat that Hellphyr represented, Strange set about forming a team of mystics to counter the demon. He first contacted his student and trusted friend, Topaz, and convinced her to join him in facing this new menace. Strange then traveled to Citrusville, Florida where he contacted Andy’s sister, Jennifer. Jennifer had little interest in cooperating with Strange, but soon changed her mind when she realized that her brother was responsible for bringing Hellphyr to Earth. The third and final member of the coven proved to be problematic. Working from the cellar of his Sanctum Sanctorum, Strange used dark magic to summon Satan's daughter, Satana, from the pits of Hell.

The young Werner saw his mother die and was nearly killed himself were it not for Scotius and young Roberto. They regrouped with the rest of the group at Xavier's Select College for Sons of Gentlefolk. Sir Nicholas Fury came to see the new student at the College. Fury was amazed when he met all the students. Fury told Carlos of the danger of having a team of soldiers beyond imagination.; Peter Parquagh came to the school to warn them about his attack at dawn.; The Grand Inquisitor was a witchbreed himself, as he first used his powers when Brother Tomas was about to kill him. Though he was put on trial for other reasons. When the church discovered he was a Jewish man he was to be burned at the stake. He revealed his powers in public as he was being burned alongside Brother Pietro and Sister Wanda where they then escaped and easily killed their would-be executioners.

+History:
+The Wild Ones were a motorcycle gang created when the Shaper of Worlds altered reality on behalf of Andrew "Slugger" Johnson, a former private security guard for millionaire Gregory Gideon with an affection for the 1950s. Based on 1950s popular culture, they rode on flying motorcycles. They were at war with the Patriots, a paranoid and xenophobic group who were afraid of the Wild Ones and their "Youthie" movement. The two sides clashed in the hopes of obtaining the Warhead, a powerful weapon created by a man known as the Brain.; Unaffected by the reality warp were members of the Fantastic Four and their ally Thomas Gideon. Caught in between a battle between the Wild Ones and the Patriots, Johnson's reality warp affected the minds of the younger members of the team. When the Wild Ones were forced to retreat, they took the Human Torch, Medusa and Thomas Gideon with them. They were brought to the Wild One's leader, THE Wild One -- who was Johnson himself. The Wild Ones brainwashed Johnny and Medusa to go after the Warhead for them.; The led to another clash with the Patriots, who had the Mister Fantastic and the Thing on their sides. Johnson, having taken the role of the Brain, unleashed the Warhead in a fleeting effort to maintain his picturesque version of reality. Ultimately the Warheads and Patriots worked together to destroy the Warhead alongside the Fantastic Four. The two groups were then confronted by a group of African-Americans who were marginalized members of Johnson's illusion. When forced to face an impending Civil Rights movement, the Wild Ones and Patriots conceded to this, shattering Johnson's illusion, causing it to cease to exist.

This was not limited to a lucky rabbit's foot, even if it was still attached to a very much alive rabbit.; During Jimmy's second visit to Nowhere he and his new friend Ruffy Rabbit were captured by the Witches and taken back to their castle where the Witches intended to eat both the boy and hare. They trapped the two in a mystical circle while they prepared to cook the duo.; When Jimmy and Ruffy escaped, one of the exit doors they took brought them right to the witches, who attempted to capture them. Jimmy quickly grabbed a pin from one of the Witches Sunday hats and poked her with it, causing her to deflate.

+The Wild Bunch were a gang of outlaws that were active during the days of the American Frontier. Their leader was a man named Moseby and they ran along the Mogollon Range in New Mexico. The gang gained notoriety in the region prompting a cowboy named Dick Darnell to seek them out for membership after he was fired from the Chessnell Ranch and the ranchers' daughter Louise turned down his marriage proposal. Along the way, he ran into outlaw gunfighter Kid Colt who agreed to accompany him and join the gang. Moseby was instantly impressed by Kid Colt's status as an outlaw and after Colt gunned down one of Moseby's men, both he and Darnell were welcomed into the gang.; Darnell instantly got cold feet because Moseby decided to raid the Chessnell Ranch next. Kid Colt forced Dick to stick with the plan, hoping to teach the young man that outlaw living was not a nice way of living. The raid happened and the Chessnell ranch was quickly subdued. When Moseby attempted to have his way with Louise, Kid Colt shot out a lantern and he, Louise, and Dick fled into the dark. Moseby had Mr. Chessnell his prisoner and pushed him out into the open as Dick was happening by in the dark. Thinking Chessnell was really Moseby, he shot him dead. Soon the law arrived chasing the Wild Bunch away, leaving Kid Colt and Dick at the scene.; Louise accused Dick of murdering her father in cold blood and the locals agreed that he should hang. Kid Colt however raced off to catch up with the Wild Bunch where he gunned down Moseby and most of the gang and fled back to town. There he shot Dick free of the noose that was about to hang him. Kid Colt then explained to those gathered that Dick had killed Moseby, but the gang tried to flee with the body so he would be blamed for the murder of Chessnell, then Kid Colt took claim of shooting Chessnell and soon fled town under a hail of bullets. Dick and Louise eventually married.; The surviving members of the Wild Bunch likely disbanded shortly there after.

+Base of operations: Central City, California
+History:
+Harvey Jessup, a scientist from Central City, California, was colleagues with Reed Richards. While Richards went on to become the leader of the super-heroes known as the Fantastic Four, Jessup began using his expertise in nuclear energy to work for the Republic Oil and Gas Company (later known as Roxxon). When Jessup's manager pressured him to cut corners in the building of a nuclear reactor, Jessup refused and was then fired. With nuclear disarmament talks between the United States and Russia were not making any progress, Jessup became afraid that the world was going to be destroyed in a nuclear war. Harvey was later inspired when watching a new interview with the Fantastic Four, wherein Reed Richards expressed an interest in field-effect phenomena. This inspired Harvey to use F.E.P. to protect his people from nuclear attack. For the next six years, Harvey Jessup worked on a device he would later call the Salvation Machine. The intention was that the device would place a protective dome around Central City where time inside the dome would move slower than outside, eventually the dome would be dropped once it was safe to venture outside. When Jessup's invention was complete, he activated the device, surrounding Central City with a massive black dome that kept it separated from the outside world. Either by accident or design, the Salvation Device did the opposite it intended: It sped up time within the dome, so much so that for every second that went by outside an entire month passed within.; With fifty loyal technicians, Jessup rounded up the people of Central City and placed them in a state of suspended animation. Taking on the role of Great Coordinator, Jessup began advancing his society. Jessup maintained a centuries old life thanks to being placed in suspended animation, only being taken out when absolutely necessary. His followers formed a religion based on the Fantastic Four. They then began building up the city into a massive utopia. However, Harvey began to suspect something was wrong, but would not consider lowering the dome for fear that his theory of nuclear Armageddon proved to be true. Hundreds of years passed within the dome and it was eventually breached by the Avenger known as Iron Man, who remained within Central City, hunted by Jessup's minions for three weeks before escaping back outside. This prompted Jessup to create an army to defend his utopia, and engineered later generations into protectors of the realm: the Clobber Patrol, the Fire Patrol, the Wing Patrol, and Head Patrol. The patrols were based upon the Thing, Human Torch, Mister Fantastic, and the Invisible Woman respectively. The Wing Patrol wore glider suits that resembled Mister Fantastic when he stretched his body in such a way that allowed him to float on the air. They were also armed with bo-staffs as their primary weapons.; Hundreds more years passed and the dome was breached by the She-Hulk, who had recently replaced the Thing as a member of the Fantastic Four at the time. Jessup had his minions subdue her, but his daughter Murna protested, realizing that there was something not right about her father's plan. In response, Jessup had Murna exiled and the She-Hulk placed in suspended animation.; After centuries had passed within the dome, the Fantastic Four and their ally Wyatt Wingfoot ended up breaching the dome to find their missing comrade, and discovered the civilization Jessup created within. After battling with the various patrols, the Fantastic Four were greeted by Princess Livia puppet ruler of the people. They were brought to the Grand Controller, who Richards had figured out was his old colleague. At first believing that they were impostors, Jessup decided to try and destroy the Fantastic Four instead of losing his position as a savior. The Invisible Woman was able to protect them with their invisibility powers and they were soon assisted in escaping by Murna. Murna in turn helped the Fantastic Four confront her father and free She-Hulk. During the ensuing battle against the Grand Coordinator, Murna was able to mind link Harvey with Reed Richards and force him to see the truth. Realizing the errors of his ways, Jessup agreed to let the people of Central City go free from suspended animation and go their own way with the Fantastic Four. Harvey died soon after, and the Fantastic Four freed Jessup's prisoners. Reed then used the Salvation Machine to send the future world of Central City deep into the future where it hopefully could thrive in peace.

+Notes: It is assumed that Arnim Zola had involvement with this Winter Soldier program, given that he started it all with Bucky Barnes and that he knew of all Barnes' missions, but it's never stated within the film they're featured in.; It is now not known whether the deaths that Natasha Romanoff states Barnes is credited for throughout history are all actually kills done by Barnes himself.; Jackson Spidell, Yi Long, Heidi Moneymaker, Aaron Toney, and Cale Schultz are credited for portraying the Winter Soldiers in the film Captain America: Civil War. Spidell is credited as "Josef/Super Soldier #1".
+Trivia: Spidell is the stunt double for Chris Evans, who plays Captain America. Moneymaker is the stunt double for Scarlett Johansson, who plays Black Widow. Toney is the stunt double for Anthony Mackie, who plays the Falcon.
+History:
+The Winter Soldiers were a top secret section of Hydra, during its reformation period within S.H.I.E.L.D.. The team was facilitated by Colonel Vasily Karpov who trained the brainwashed soldiers, with the help of the first Winter Soldier, Bucky Barnes. These soldiers, however, were a lot less mentally stable than Barnes.; On December 16th 1991, Karpov sent Barnes out on a mission to retrieve a case of the super-soldier serum from Howard Stark. After retrieving the serum, Barnes had to kill Howard and his wife Maria, for there to be no witnesses.; A couple decades later, after Hydra fell at the hands of Captain America and his allies, Karpov went into hiding in a suburban life. One day, a man by the name of Helmut Zemo barged into his home and tied him up, demanding to be told what happened on December 16th 1991. When Karpov wouldn't divulge the secrets, Zemo instead took the book of words used to brainwash the soldiers and studied it. He later infiltrated the Joint Counter Terrorist Centre Building in Germany, impersonating Dr. Theo Broussard, to get one-on-one time with Barnes, who was being held prisoner there. Zemo activated Barnes' brainwashing using the words he studied, and demanded a mission report of December 16th 1991 and the location of the Hydra base.; Later, when Captain America had Barnes alone and safe, he asked him what Zemo would want from the Hydra base. Barnes revealed the existence of more Winter Soldiers resting in cryogenic sleep, waiting to be given further orders. Captain America assumed that Zemo was looking to utilize these soldiers to inflict further devastation on the world.; Zemo soon arrived in Siberia and found the base. Captain America, Barnes, and Iron Man arrived not long after, looking for Zemo. Zemo revealed himself to them, and also revealed that he didn't intend on freeing the Winter Soldiers for his schemes. To prove this, he released a gas into their respective cryogenic chambers, killing them all. He then played a video of the December 16th 1991 mission, revealing to Iron Man that Barnes was the his parent's killer. This caused Iron Man to attack Captain America and Barnes, long enough for Zemo to escape. Zemo later revealed to Black Panther, who followed Iron Man to Siberia, that he never intended on using the Winter Soldiers for world domination. He only intended to reveal the truth behind the Starks' deaths, so that the Avengers would be forced to tear themselves apart from the inside.

+History:
+When Nova enlisted the help of the Guardians of the Galaxy to confront the rogue Olympians, half of the team turned him down out of concern for the safety of each other. The mission was a success but it resulted in the apparent death of Star-Lord. Stricken with grief, Gamora and the Guardians that hadn't accepted the mission, Drax and Groot, split off and formed their own team to return to their mercenary ways. They were joined by Drax's daughter Moondragon.; For their first mission, the team was hired by Black Bunny Solutions on behalf of Castor Gnawbarque III to kill Rocket Raccoon and stop the sabotaging of an energy-converting machine named the D-Type Converter at the hands of the other Guardians. Both teams clashed, and Gamora's team failed their missions. During the confrontation, Moondragon merged with her Reality-18897 counterpart and joined the other Guardians. Groot had helped prevent Rocket's assassination, and also defected to the other team. The two members of Black Bunny Solutions, Blackjack O'Hare and Prince of Power, remained with the team. In the aftermath of the conflict, the two teams extended a truce.; When the Guardians were reunited with Star-Lord, who heralded the return of the Olympians, Nova sought the help of Gamora's team, and the two Guardians teams stood their ground together against the vengeful gods. In the aftermath of the Olympians' defeat, Gamora's unit was folded back into the main team.

+Created by: Len Wein; Sal Buscema
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: A group of criminals sharing the Asgardian power gifted upon the Wrecker
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile; Formerly:; Imprisoned in the Raft, the Vault, the Cage and the Big House
+Affiliation: Hood's Gang; Formerly:; Masters of Evil; Army of Evil; United States Army
+Equipment: Bulldozer Helmet: Bulldozer has a specially-made armored helmet, neck and shoulder apparatus that gives him added protection and invulnerability when ramming an opponent. The helmet partially affects his peripheral field-of-vision.
+Weapons: Wrecker's Crowbar: The Wrecker wields a four-foot long cast iron crowbar which has become virtually indestructible through extensive contact with the Wrecker's enchanted skin. Wielded by the superhumanly strong Wrecker, the crowbar becomes a weapon of vast destructive potential. The Wrecker has used the crowbar to demolish entire buildings in minutes and to hold off the thunder god, Thor, in battle. The Wrecker has used the crowbar offensively as both a throwing weapon and a bat. Because of the teachings of Ulik, The Rock Troll, he can throw his crowbar and have it return to him, much like Thor's own hammer.; Thunderball's Ball and Chain: Thunderball possesses a highly durable wrecking ball, altered because of exposure to the Wrecker's power, much in the same way the Wrecker's crowbar. The ball is attached to a four foot long chain and is capable of projecting electrical energy bolts and an energized exoskeleton suit. The suit is only used when not in possession of his regular wrecking ball and superhuman powers. The wrecking ball, when thrown, is capable of returning to Thunderball in a similar fashion as Wrecker's crowbar and Thor's hammer. Thunderball has sufficient strength to spin the wrecking ball on it's chain fast enough to deflect bullets and automatic gunfire. By slamming the wrecking ball on the ground, Thunderball can cause minor localized quakes, knocking his opponents off-balance. It is also durable enough to be thrown into buildings and other structures, knocking them down with no damage to itself. In the past, The Hulk and Hercules both have, with extreme effort, destroyed the wrecking ball with their bare hands. When this happens, Thunderball doesn't suffer any ill psychic effects and simply obtains a new wrecking ball. However, the wrecking ball then has to be energized by The Wrecker himself to gain the increased resistance to damage.
+Notes: The Wrecking Crew were involved in the battle between the Marvel and DC Universe.
+History:
+===Origin===; When Dirk Garthwaite, the original Wrecker, claimed his powers by gripping his enchanted crowbar in a lightning storm, a bolt struck the tool as three other men held it as well. Ex-Physicist Dr. Eliot Franklin became Thunderball, Ex-Army Master Sergeant Henry Camp became Bulldozer, and Ex-Farmhand Brian Calusky became Piledriver. Although this quartered the Wrecker's prodigious strength, the team remained together and remained a formidable force. Their powers are of mystical origin, and Thor is one of their common opponents. Their first appearance, however, saw them face the Defenders as they were destroying buildings belonging to Richmond Enterprises while attempting to find a miniature gamma-bomb that Eliot Franklin had lost years before. They were eventually defeated by the combined might of the Defenders and Power Man, and Bruce Banner was able to disarm the gamma-bomb before it leveled New York City.; ===Iron Fist===; The Wrecking Crew on a quest to kill Thor were interrupted by Misty Knight and Iron Fist. They take her hostage and force Iron Fist to help them break into the Avengers Mansion. However Iron Fist was met by Captain America and after a brief bit of confusion he agreed to help defeat the Wrecking Crew. When they arrived to gain access to Avengers Mansion, where Iron Fist welcomes them in and shows them a "defeated" Captain America.

Zemo sends several of his minions on scouting missions, performing various tasks in preparation for the assault on the mansion. However the Avengers were able to defeat them but with great losses to both teams.; ===Spider-Woman===; Spider-Woman and the Wrecking Crew are both in pursuit of a stolen computer disc.

Captain America soon arrived at The Vault to rescued them and put the crew back behind bars.; ===Excalibur===; The Wrecking Crew has took a hostage, and Code: Blue came to stop them. The British government sends Excalibur to learn the whereabouts of the Juggernaut, and run into the Wrecking Crew. Loki, Ulik, and the Enchantress were also interested in the Wrecker, but for reasons of their own. Thor and Code:Blue race to the scene of the battle, and the Wrecker causes his new abilities to make Excalibur see Thor as the Juggernaut. Shadowcat then turns Thor intangible, phasing him into the concrete and leaving him there. Thor frees himself from Shadowcat's trap, and Lockheed discovers Ulik and the Enchantress on a nearby rooftop. They are forced to flee and the illusion around Thor disappears. Code:Blue captures Bulldozer, but the other three members of the Wrecking Crew got away.; ===Loki===; The rest of the Wrecking Crew attempt to free the Wrecker, but are confronted by the Ghost Rider, and Mephisto.

When a group of villains led by Baron Zemo snapped out of this fantasy world and returned to their true selves, they attacked the village from within, wrecking havoc and freeing the other prisoners from Pleasant Hill's control.; The Wrecking Crew was one of these numerous villains.

Afterwards, the new Master of Evil joined the expansion Baron Zemo carried out for the enterprise of Hydra and its leader, an alternate reality Captain America: the Army of Evil.; The Wrecking Crew aided in Hydra's plan to take over the United States by launching an attack on Manhattan along with the Army of Evil in order to lure out as many of America's superheroes as possible. The Army of Evil was later teleported away while Baron Zemo used the Darkhold to boost the powers of Blackout and trap half of Manhattan in a Darkforce dome, trapping the superheroes who fought the Masters. The Crew later took part in a fight against any remaining superheroes in Washington, D.C. as Hydra moved toward the capital to secure its takeover of the country. The Crew also killed off S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Moth Squadron after ambushing them in a warehouse, but the Squadron's sole survivor, Quake, managed to escape with her life after using her powers to bring down the warehouse's roof on top of the Wrecking Crew.; After Hydra took over the United States, the Wrecking Crew along with the Army of Evil were all placed in stasis by Hydra out of fear of what they would do if they were allowed to remain free. When a contingent of superheroes who opposed Hydra's regime known as the Underground launched a massive assault against Hydra in Washington, D.C., Baron Zemo was ordered to awaken the Masters along with the Army of Evil to turn the tide. He was stopped by Black Panther and Winter Soldier before he could accomplish his task. After the Hydra regime fell, the Wrecking Crew were likely freed from stasis and taken into custody.; ===Return to Hood's Gang===; The Wrecking Crew attended a meeting of various villains organized by the Wizard to discuss what to do about Doctor Doom who had unexpectedly decided to become a superhero and become the new Iron Man. As the Hood brought up the idea of forming a gang of villains to take Doom out, Doom suddenly appeared and took down all of the villains present. They later participated in an ambush against Doom along with many of the other villains that Doom had earlier defeated before joining Hood's Gang once more in ransacking Castle Doom in search for Doom's fortune.

+Created by: Christos N. Gage; Rafa Sandoval
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Formed as one of the 50-State Initiative teams
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Delaware
+History:
+After the approval of the SHRA and the end of failed Skrull invasion on Earth, Norman Osborn, by then Director of National Security, modified the 50-State Initiative to give superhero teams to several states that were still missing it, including Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina and Oregon, and also creating Camp H.A.M.M.E.R. at the same time (These teams did not have their operational jurisdiction restricted to their State HQ). The Delawarean officially-licensed team within Osborn's federal Initiative program was called the Women Warriors, originally made up of former criminals, all of them women: Asp, Black Mamba, and team leader Diamondback (these three women had been previously known as the B.A.D. Girls and had been recruited in anti-SHRA Secret Avengers for the Civil War; after the Secrets Avengers' defeat, they initially rejected the amnesty offered if they would join the Initiative as licensed superheroes, but after the Skrull invasion they did join and were assigned to this team); along with Quicksand (who had been forced to cooperated with the Thunderbolts during the then-recent Civil War and injected with a subdermal phase-shift locator to teleport her to jail if she rebelled, but it apparently malfunctioned); and Skein (who had participated in pro-mutant riots against Osborn's troops soon before). While Osborn publicly insisted that the ex-criminals he was using in the Initiative were reformed, lawfully registered and had proved themselves, really most of the criminals he was using were not rehabilitated at all.; The Initiative sent the Women Warriors in several missions, including stopping RAID terrorists that were attacking the Baltimore–Washington International Airport (Maryland), simply to cause chaos; in such mission they were joined by Initiative agent Constrictor, who overexerted himself to stop an airplane that RAID tried to collide against a control tower, thus saving many lives including Diamondback's. This mission was successful, with the Women Warrios and Constrictor being praised; Osborn had Constrictor be reassigned to spend some more time with the Women Warrios and receive a publicity tour.; The Women Warriors and Constrictor were sent to Camp H.A.M.M.E.R., New Mexico, where they confronted the New Warriors who were trying to rescue their member Donyell Taylor. They also were attacked by Nightmare, who possessed Trauma, and Constrictor began a romance with Diamondback - only to discover that Diamondback was secretly working with the anti-SHRA resistance; thou Constrictor did not mind. Soon afterward, the Women Warriors intended to arrange for a party, but Initiative officer Taskmasters warned them that Osborn himself was coming for a security inspection.; The Women Warriors were also on the front lines when Norman Osborn laid siege to Asgard in an unprovoked attack with many Initiative teams; during their preparation, the Women Warriors themselves were divided about this: Quicksand had confronted Asgardian Thor in the past and was sure she could win, even if she had been beaten, as Asp reminded her; and Mamba and Diamondback assuaged them saying that, per the reports, most Asgardians were not as though as Thor himself, and their team had several powerhouses to confront those "heavyweights". Constrictor was worried that Diamondback's skills may not be enough, but she was confident about them; Diamondback, on the other hand, was worried because she could not contact the resistance in time. Finally, in the battle, Constrictor and Diamondback fought togehter until she joined the Taskmaster and Quicksand against Thor. Thor was defeated and publicly beaten by Quicksand and several other Initiative members.; After Osborn's defeat, many of the Women Warriors have been seen working in other activities, including criminal activities with other organizations. It is likely that the team has been disbanded.

+History:
+The Worthy were the Serpent's elite vanguards and agents of destruction. The eight super-powered beings who could wield their hammers were granted immense magical power, and possessed by the evil spirits that were associated with the Serpent. Sin was the first one to lift the Hammer of Skadi which transformed her into Skadi, who then freed the Serpent from his magical prison. He then sent seven more hammers to Earth which were found and lifted by seven more people:; The Juggernaut became Kuurth: Breaker of Stone; Attuma became Nerkkod: Breaker of Oceans; Titania became Skirn: Breaker of Men; The Grey Gargoyle became Mokk: Breaker of Faith; The Absorbing Man became Greithoth: Breaker of Wills; The Thing became Angrir: Breaker of Souls; The Hulk became Nul: Breaker of Worlds; Every one of the Worthy helped the Serpent spread fear around the Earth. The first Worthy to be dispossessed was the Thing, with the help of Franklin Richards and his reality alteration powers. After the final battle when the Worthy were defeated by the Mighty and the Serpent was killed by Thor, their hammers were taken away from them by Odin. Nul was the only one who seemed to be still free on Earth; for that, the Hulk searched for help from Doctor Strange.

+Created by: Charles Soule; Peter Nguyen
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: After the death of Wolverine, Shogun had captured five individuals who had healing factors in order to find a cure for the experiments that Abraham Cornelius had done for Abraham Cornelius Experiment.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Croatia, Changeling
+Equipment: Wolverine's Suit
+Transportation: Changeling
+History:
+After successfully finding and kidnapping the "Wolverines" (Mystique, Daken, Sabretooth, Lady Deathstrike, and X-23), and threatening them with the "control words" (that manipulate, sedate or even kill each of them), Shogun, Neuro, Endo, Skel, and Junk teamed up with them to find the Adamantium-petrified body of Wolverine in the burnt-down Paradise facility, where they encountered and fought the Wrecking Crew, who were hired by Mr. Sinister to find Logan's remains. When X-23 and Daken found the body, Mister Sinister appeared and took Wolverine's body with him, plus an eye and an arm from Daken, who lost his healing factor in a previous battle against Siphon.; On the Changeling ship, Sharp used a Regen Serum made by Dr. Cornelius that he found in the wreckage to stabilize and save Daken, much to Ogun's dismay. When the team started planning how to retrieve Logan's body from Sinister, Neuro told Sharp that there was another Paradise subject who was the perfect thief and the only one able to help them penetrate Mister Sinister's nigh-impenetrable base and escape from it alive: Fantomelle.; The team arrived at Fantomelle's place at the time she was being attacked by Siphon, the monster who stole Daken's healing factor. After a brutal fight along Skel against the monster, Shogun threw a grenade at Siphon, seemingly killing it. At the Changeling, while Sharp, Neuro, Fantonelle and her fox Culpepper made plans for the invasion, Fantonelle realized by body language lecture that Sharp was having an internal conversation with Ogun, and warned him that if he trust him over her inside Sinister's base, it would get him killed.; The team dropped for a surprise attack, when they were caught mid-air by Starky Gripes, a servant of Mr. Sinister who was expecting them and wanted to learn more about them, and refused them to leave. When Endo tried to escape, Starky activated some sort of hole where she fell in. Sharp killed Starky, but more "Gripes" showed up. Sinister then told them that many of his experiments needed field testing against unpredictable opponents as them, and if they survive, he might let them live. The team was suddenly separated, Shogun ending up with Neuro and Skel. They were attacked by Fin Fang Boom, a Fin Fang Foom clone with half of a Thor clone attached to the end of its tongue. Skel punched its guts and Shogun defeated it by cutting off and killing the Thor part. Neuro then analyzed the creature and told Sharp that Sinister could cure them and there was no need for Wolverine's body anymore, so he offered Mr. Sinister complete control over the "Wolverines" in exchange for curing them.; When the X-Men appeared, demanding Logan's body, Sinister accepted Neuro's offer, so, much to Shogun's dismay, he used a control word on Lady Deathstrike and put her under Sinister's control, although the rest of the "Wolverines" blocked or damaged their ears. While Neuro thought of this action as insane, Shogun explained it was simply warfare. Then, Fantomelle, who had stolen Wolverine's body and bent herself through dimensions to escape from Sinister's vacuum trap, tried to escape with the body, but Nightcrawler appeared and teleported away with the Wolverine for the X-Men.; While Endo, Neuro and Skel remained with Mr. Sinister, Sharp and Junk left with the Wolverines. Mystique then declared herself as the leader of the team, and made Sharp help her retrieve the zhulong, or sun dragon, on Taipei, and told him that Lady Deathstrike was interested on him, but Sharp thought she didn't because, as he held the control words, she wanted to kill him. Then, before they left, Mystique created a complex trap where she made him reveal her all the control words. Afterwards, while Ogun told him to return to Sinister, Deathstrike appeared and attacked him. After a short fight, they kissed. Suddenly, a mysterious figure appeared from a meteor crash and demanded to know who killed Logan.; The mysterious figure was revealed to be Fang, an Imperial Guard member thought to be deceased. He accused the Wolverines of having killed Logan, attacked Sabretooth, and easily defeated Daken. The Wolverines, except Daken, along with their allies tried to assault Fang, but he released an omnidirectional blast at them. Fang then asked Daken if he was scared, to which Daken replied that he was not and stabbed him in the head with his claws. Fang survived the attack and again demanded to know who killed Logan. X-23 said that nobody there killed Logan and stated that everybody wanted to be there when Logan died. Meanwhile, Mystique located Fang's weakness and everybody started attacking Fang again, while Junk used the Changeling's cannons against Fang, apparently killing him. However, Fang again survived the attack and took Daken to Jotunheim.; In Jotunheim, Fang took Daken to face a Frost Giant, but Daken said that he lost his healing factor. Fang retorted that his loss of his healing factor didn't seem to stop him and revealed that he had been seeing Logan every year and had talked about him and how Logan admired people like Beast, Iron Fist, and Daredevil. Daken then reminded him that they both had arms, while he didn't and said that he didn't want to face the Frost Giant, but Fang didn't listen and issued a challenge against him. Fang then went over to the Frost Giant and told him that Daken was his father, which enraged it and started attacking him. Later on, Daken was trapped within a cave and threatened to kill Fang. He then asked Fang why was he doing this if he knew that he didn't kill Logan, to which Fang replied that he already knew and told Daken to get himself out of the situation just like Logan would've done. Daken then engaged the Frost Giant in combat and gained the upper hand against the Frost Giant and almost killed it, until Fang interfered and saved its life. Fang asked why he wanted to kill him, to which Daken angrily replied that he was not his father. Fang handed him a beer and used his energy powers to restore Daken's lost arm temporarily because, according to Fang, he didn't believe in redemption and sent Daken back to the Changeling, while taking Sabretooth with him.; Fang took Sabretooth to a spaceship 65 light-years away from the Milky Way and explained about a species called the J'Graqq, who mutilated, enslaved, and murdered trillions of other races, and used his cosmic power to infiltrate the ship. Sabretooth then fought the J'Graqq, but suddenly he was electrocuted by one of them. However, he shrugged this off and proceeded to kill them. One of the J'Graqq activated a translator and tried to negotiate with Sabretooth by saying that their race had changed their ways by resorting to planetary destruction, but Sabretooth choked and decapitated it. The other J'Graqq started to revere Sabretooth as a god and he started playing around. However, Fang arrived after an explosion and started lecturing Sabretooth and telling him what Logan thought about him, a boring person. He then asked Sabretooth if he wanted to wipe out the J'Graqq, but Sabretooth replied that he was no longer a killer. Fang then used the ship's computer to wipe out the J'Graqq, much to Sabretooth's shock. Sabretooth protested angrily, but Fang snapped back coldly by saying that he was not Logan and he would never take responsibility for other people's actions. He then set the ship to self-destruct and teleported himself, along with Sabretooth, back to the Wolverines. X-23 volunteered to join him, which Fang gladly accepted.

+Trivia: All members of the team are classified as Power-types in their DISKs; The way the team introduces themselves upon being D-Smashed is very similar to a typical Super Sentai role call, also alluding to the Ginyu Force from the Dragon Ball franchise.
+History:
+The Wrecking Crew is a construction themed supervillain team, consisting of 4 members. All four were at some point prior to their first appearance trapped in DISKs.; When a lost DISK was located on a construction site in Tokyo, Joel Murphy D-smashed the entire Wrecking Crew to fight off the Avengers. Prior to the fight, they first introduced themselves with a team pose, which the Avengers’ young partners considered lame but Joel considered stylish. In the battle, Hulk fought with Bulldozer, Wasp and Captain America teamed up against Piledriver, Iron Man fought Wrecker and Thor fought Thunderball. Captain America had to abandon the fight when his partner, Chris, was seemingly crushed underneath a tower. The other Avengers finished off the Wrecking Crew without him, and all four villains got D-secured by Akira, Ed, Jessica and Hikaru. Joel didn’t mind losing his team however, since he had found the DISK he came for and took it with him.; Joel regained his team when the DISKs were lost again after the first battle with Loki at the latters' Ice Palace. When Loki ordered the Celebrity Five to gather the Treasures of Darkenss for him, Joel used the Wrecking Crew to help him obtain the final 2 of these treasures. They first go for the Crescent Dagger, guarded by Wasp and Hulk. Wasp is easily defeated by the four villains and Hulk is distracted when Ed faints due to a fever. The Wrecking Crew thus wins and steals the Crescent Dagger. They then went for the last treasure, the Solar Crown, hidden in one of the Egyptian Pyramids. This time they first fought against Iron Man, Thor, Wasp and Captain America, but managed to beat them. Hulk and Ed showed up just in time to turn the tides, and when Ed also D-Smashed his second hero, Power Man, the team was defeated and once more D-Secured by Akira, Chris, Hikaru and Jessica.

+History:
+During the time of Bor's reign, he found the Galactus Seed and used it to create Yggdrasill and with it the Nine Realms. The light of the tree while bright also cast shadows where dark things conspired for the brightest flame of the World Tree. World Eaters were one of those vile things, a race of beings from beyond the veil of space-time where a starving universe existed. The universe, though dying, was kept alive due to the willpower of Uthana Thoth. When Asgard was brought to Earth in Broxton, it left a void allowing the World Eaters to breach the walls of the universe and open a way into the Nine Worlds.; The World Eaters wasted no time and began invading the realms, starting with Nidavellir. There they were disappointed as they only slaughtered a few dwarven seers who had foreseen them coming and ordered their people to evacuate. Uthana Thoth though was pleased that denizens of the Nine Realms knew of them and were afraid. Other realms the World Eaters invaded were not so lucky. The invaders killed all that stood in their way and only spoke one recognizable world: Asgard, causing many refugees to gather at the ruins of Asgard in Broxton.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Formed by Angel to reunite the first team of X-Men, originally posed as mutants hunters to help mutantkind in secrecy.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly Ship; X-Factor Complex, New York City, New York
+Transportation: Prosh, the Celestial Ship.
+History:
+===Mutant Hunters===; X-Factor was formed as a consequence of the reunion the original five students of Professor Charles Xavier, the first class of X-Men. They had the objective of keeping their mentor's dream alive in face of the X-Men having changed to the point of their original members no longer relating to the team, especially with the addition of their former nemesis Magneto to the ranks of the group. Prior to X-Factor's formation, the former members of the original X-Men, the high-flying magnate Angel, the lighthearted and chill Iceman, and the playful and witty Beast, had insisted on maintaining a superhero careers as members of the Defenders, which ended up in tragedy and caused them to pursue different interests in life. Meanwhile, the first X-Man Cyclops had retired from the X-Men and moved to Alaska with his wife, Madelyne Pryor, and their newborn son.; The original X-Men were brought together with the return of Jean Grey, who had been believed dead after sacrificing herself as Phoenix on the moon. In reality, Jean Grey had actually been replaced by Phoenix and placed in stasis beneath Jamaica Bay while she recovered from radiation poisoning. She was found by the Avengers and revived by Reed Richards. Upon getting caught up on most of the events that happened in her absence, she contacted Angel and he in turn gathered the original X-Men to meet her, leading Beast to join them after being rejected employment at Empire State University and Iceman to walk out on a dull accounting job to be reunited with his friends. However, Cyclops took Jean Grey's return the hardest, being unable to make up his mind about his feelings towards his past flame Jean Grey and his current wife Madelyne Pryor. Unable to tell the one about the other, Cyclops abandoned his wife and their son to meet up with the original X-Men.; Inspired by Jean Grey's suggestion that they should repair the strained relations between humans and mutants and continue Xavier's dream, Angel used his vast business assets to create X-Factor. Setting up a complex out by New York Harbor and hiring his old university friend and lawyer Cameron Hodge as their public relations expert, X-Factor, Incorporated was born. They posed as mutant hunters who would take tips from the public to locate potentially dangerous mutants and take them into custody. The reality of their mission would be to secretly train mutants to control their powers so that they would not be a menace to society. The team parallelly also operated under their former X-Men identities as a new team dubbed by the media as the X-Terminators in order to act in situations where their powers were required. Unknown to them at the time, Hodge was in fact a mutant hater who despised Angel and sought to use X-Factor as a means of increasing anti-mutant sentiment, mostly through a heavy-handed advertising campaign. This caught the attention of Senator Thompson, who independently supervised X-Factor's actions. X-Factor's first mission consisted of them being hired to apprehend the young pyrokinetic mutant Rusty Collins, a sailor whose powers had flared out of control and horribly burned the face of a sex worker in San Diego. X-Factor succeeded in subduing Collins and convinced him come back with them for secret training.; The Beast was eventually targeted by a former colleague of his from Brand Corporation, Dr. Carl Maddicks. Maddicks hired the mutant mercenary Tower to kidnap Beast and force him to redesign an experiment to cure his mute son Artie of his mutation. Ironically, Maddicks contacted X-Factor to arrest Tower, which gave them information about Beast's situation. Maddicks administered the treatment in Beast as a guinea pig as X-Factor raided his hideout to save their friend. Since Dr. Maddicks secretly used his employer's resources within the Ryan Bio-Chemical, he was inadvertently murdered by the security team after he chose to cover X-Factor's escape in order to protect his son. In the aftermath, X-Factor took the orphaned Artie and their friend Beast back to their headquarters only to find that the experiment had regressed Beast's mutation to his original, more human appearance.; X-Factor's ruse was not well accepted by the mutant community, who in ignorance saw them as a danger. They attracted the attention of the Alliance of Evil, a group whose employer sought to rescue Rusty from his apparent captors. One of their members were Tower, who clashed with X-Factor at their complex but managed to escape. This coincided with Rusty struggling to adjust himself to his condition as a mutant. He was lured by another member of the Alliance of Evil, the vicious Frenzy. After answering a fake mutant report, X-Factor came to Rusty's rescue from his failed attempt to run away by combating Frenzy. The Alliance of Evil had another victim, the mutant junky Mike Nowlan, whose power boosting ability was being exploited by the terrorists. Following a tip by Nowlan's ex-wife, X-Factor was drawn to Southern California to his defense. However, they failed by being defeated by the Alliance of Evil. Following their track to rescue Nowlan, X-Factor had their first encounter with the immortal mutant Apocalypse. Obsessed with enforcing the survival of the fittest, Apocalypse planned to spark a species war to strengthen mutantkind. Although X-Factor defeated the Alliance of Evil, they were unable to stop Apocalypse, who vanished. In the aftermath of the battle, Nowlan could not resist his wounds.; At some point, X-Factor was approached by a desperate father who believed his young son, Willie Evans Jr., had been abducted by the mutant hunters. Instead, X-Factor offered help in finding and retrieving the boy. Beast was able to identify that the boy might be captive in Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S., and the team traveled to its base. They were opposed by the security operative Guardsman. Another interloper was the invincible Iron Man. Beast was able to reason with them about the situation. The young mutant's powers of conjuring animated constructs went wild due to an alternate personality he had developed named Grunt. Together, X-Factor and Iron Man attempted to help him, but in the end he sacrificed himself to put an end to Grunt. At his funeral, X-Factor lamented the tragedy. Among many other missions in American territory, X-Factor earned a reputation to the point of being hired to share their methods with the Soviet Union's intelligence. The team was informed by Senator Thompson about mutants being secretly tortured in Soviet soil by the government. Afraid of the possible results, X-Factor decided to accept the mission only to go undercover to Siberia and free the victims, which were revealed to being experimented on by the mutant Dopplegänger and his minion, the Crimson Dynamo. However, Doppelgänger impersonated Iceman and infiltrated the team. The real Iceman, however, was rescued by the Russian mutant team of renegades known as the Exiles. Together, the two mutant groups reached the concentration camp and ultimately prevailed by joining forces to rescue the prisoners, going under the radar to evade authorities. X-Factor then fabricated a report to the Soviet government in order to safely return home.; ===Morlock Massacre===; As anti-mutant hysteria rose drastically, the X-Terminators constant involvement in X-Factor's operations did not escape public notice. The press -- especially reporter Trish Tilby -- began asking hard questions. In this setting, X-Factor's standing with mutants grew worse when two outcast mutants unfit for even the Morlocks due to being radioactive, Glow Worm and Bulk, attempted to attack the X-Factor compound. Splitting up into two teams, one as X-Factor and the other as the X-Terminators, they defused the threat, forcing them to return free into the sewers. In a following task, X-Factor was hired by J. Jonah Jameson to hunt down the public menace Spider-Man. Despite knowing Spider-Man was a hero, X-Factor pretended to accept the deal in order to secretly help him. After defeating Spider-Man, X-Factor alerted him about the assignment and chose to abandon Jameson.; Since Rusty Collins was still wanted for his crimes, Freedom Force, the mutant squad sponsored by the government and led by Mystique, was tasked of apprehending him. The clairvoyant Destiny identified his connection to X-Factor, prompting a public clash between Freedom Force and X-Factor in Central Park. Among the commotion, Rusty was forced to flee into the Morlock Tunnels, counting with the help of Morlock girl known as Skids. Learning that Artie had gone after Rusty and Skids, X-Factor went after them as the X-Terminators, leading to another clash with Freedom Force, who had followed them to the Morlock Tunnels and easily identified them as the original X-Men. As the battle raged, Destiny foresaw that an imminent massacre was soon to devastate the Morlock Tunnels and recommended a retreat for Freedom Force. X-Factor remained to rescue their protégés. In retaliation, Mystique decided to publicly expose X-Factor's connection to the original X-Men.; Destiny's prediction came to be true in the form of the deadly Marauders, who had been dispatched to the sewer tunnels to eliminate the Morlocks. Although Rusty and Skids were rescued, Artie was still missing. He had befriended the sewer-dwellers Leech and Caliban in an attempt to escape the clutches of Sabretooth. X-Factor clashed with the Marauders and evacuated as many of the Morlocks as possible, but Cyclops and Beast were injured. Angel asked Iceman and Jean Grey to get them medical aid while he continued to search for Artie. This led to Angel's undoing as the Marauder Blockbuster broke his wings and Harpoon impaled them, pinning Angel to a wall of the tunnels, left to die. Salvation came in the form of the thunder god Thor, who was attracted to the tunnels and found Angel. Meanwhile, Cyclops and Marvel Girl went back into the tunnels, joining Power Pack in fighting the Marauders. Eventually reunited with Artie, they took both Caliban and Leech with them and convinced the Power children to return to the safety of their home. Following this, Thor was able to fight off the Marauders and reunited Angel with his comrades. In their way back, X-Factor met a group of violent Morlocks, the Tunnelers, also offering them asylum. However, the Tunnelers rejected sanctuary and chose to escape X-Factor. Met with police brutality, they were almost all killed in the ensuing confrontation which could not be prevented by X-Factor.; While adjusting to the newcomers, X-Factor recovered. While hospitalized, Angel learned his wings were damaged beyond repair. Beast and Iceman answered a call by the young street thief known as Boom Boom, who exposed her former mentor, the mutant gang leader Vanisher. Although the Vanisher escaped, Boom Boom was offered shelter with X-Factor. Moreover, Cyclops and Jean Grey investigated a series of attacks against mutant supporters, including Jean Grey's sister Sara and supposedly Cyclops's wife Madelyne Pryor, which prompted Cyclops to look for her. In his quest, he was tormented by hallucinations and could find no vestiges of his wife or son, in addition to being attacked by the malfunctional Sentinel known as the Master Mold. The crises escalated as X-Factor fell under a number of legal and personal woes. Outed as the financial backer for X-Factor, Angel faced a lawsuit for fraud, leading Cameron Hodge to have his wings amputated under the purpose of saving his life. Distraught at the loss of his wings, Angel seemingly committed suicide by detonating an airplane he was in. Meanwhile, the Morlock refugees decided to return to the ruins of their former home in the sewers. Simultaneously, Iceman was kidnapped and manipulated by the God of Mischief Loki in a plot against Thor. By boosting Iceman's powers, Loki revitalized the Frost Giants, which caused the X-Factor member to lose fine control of his powers.; ===Fall of the Mutants===; Without Angel's presence, Cameron Hodge's true colors were finally shown when he funneled much of X-Factor's resources into boosting anti-mutant sentiment and secretly financed his extremist group, the Right. He manipulated X-Factor into rescuing the young mutant named Rictor from the Right in San Francisco. For this mission, Caliban offered to join the group in order to use his powers to locate Rictor. The group was successful in retrieving the young mutant, but found no evidence about the villains who had captured him. Back home, X-Factor realized that Hodge was behind the illusions Cyclops experienced in torment, which prompted X-Factor to reject him. Hodge vanished, and X-Factor was distracted by the Horsemen of Apocalypse, who unleashed chaos in Central Park. Although the villains retreated, the fight eroded mutant perception even more. During the reading of Angel's will, X-Factor learned in horror Hodge was in full control of X-Factor. His agents from Right raided the ceremony pretending to be mutants which forced X-Factor to expose their true nature as mutants to the media. Simultaneously, the unprotected trainees at the X-Factor complex were captured and had their powers neutralized, being held captive in Arlington. X-Factor was able to go to their rescue, facing Hodge directly. Wearing a Ruby-Quartz armor, Hodge was rendered immune to X-Factor's powers, especially Cyclops'. However, when attempting to depower Iceman, he could not account for his expanded limits. Iceman was able to damage the armor, allowing Cyclops to execute Hodge. However, the villain was revealed to be merely a puppet robot. Still, his complex was destroyed and the trainees were saved.; Before being able to return home, X-Factor was summoned by Apocalypse, who exposed his vision of violence to promote a species war and strengthen mutantkind. In his Celestial Ship, Apocalypse offered an alliance, but X-Factor rejected him, being forced to face his Horsemen one more time. In horror, they realized that the last Horseman of Apocalypse, Death, was Angel. As Apocalypse's right hand, Angel easily subdued his former teammates. Meanwhile, Caliban defected, choosing to join Apocalypse in order to gain power to avenge the Morlocks. The Horsemen were released one more time to slay humans as part of Apocalypse's plan. X-Factor was able to escape, directing their efforts to stop the Horsemen. However, Apocalypse tricked Beast, who had been infected by Pestilence and had his intellect deteriorated. As a result, Beast disrupted the Ship, causing it to fail and destroy sections of New York City. Amidst the crisis, Iceman created a replica of himself to trick Angel into murdering him. The shock of killing a former friend disrupted Apocalypse's conditioning, causing Angel to rebel against his master. This turn helped X-Factor defeat the Horsemen. In the end, Apocalypse proudly retreated, astonished by X-Factor's worth. He chose to leave his Ship behind, which X-Factor was able to reposition in their old complex in order to save the city. In the aftermath, the mutant group shared the entire truth behind their existence to the media as they dealt with the consequences of their war for days. This caused X-Factor to be celebrated by the people as heroes and occupied Apocalypse's Ship as their temporary headquarters. However, it soon showed erratic behavior by attacking its residents. By opposing the Ship, X-Factor and their protégés learned it was run by an enslaved artificial intelligence. After liberating it and deactivating its traps, X-Factor was welcomed by Ship, who was pleased to serve them.; X-Factor registered under the Mutant Registration Act, but under their aliases, refusing to submit their real names with the government. When hero Dagger became possessed by pure evil due to the schemes of Mr. Jip, and attacked civilians in New York City, Jean, Beast and Iceman stepped in and subdued her with the help of her partner, Cloak. X-Factor also clashed with the Alliance of Evil again. The dark Angel sought revenge against Cameron Hodge, who had gained immortality from the demon N'astrith, and murdered Candy Southern.; ===Inferno===; X-Factor's rise to popularity was accompanied by the dreadful demise of the X-Men, who sacrificed themselves in battle against the Adversary. Among the victimized X-Men was Madelyne Pryor, who shared that her and Cyclops' son was still missing before her life ended. While Scott and Jean rekindled their romance they attempted to find his son, only to find that he had been kidnapped by Nanny and her minion Orphan-Maker. Eventually, Pryor resurfaced as the Goblin Queen. It was discovered Madelyne had been a clone of Jean Grey created by Mister Sinister. Madelyne had been a failed experiment until she was brought to life by the portion of Jean's consciousness that had been borrowed by the Phoenix Force and a spark of the Phoenix Force which had been rejected by Jean's body while in the cocoon. She attempted to sacrifice her and Cyclops' son Nathan atop the Empire State Building in order to permanently open a gateway between Earth and Otherplace. The Goblin Queen died in combat with Marvel Girl. As a result of a psychic link, Jean acquired the memories of both Madelyne Pryor and the Phoenix's duplicate of her.; ===Judgement War===; X-Factor was kidnapped and brought to a planet where individuals are revered by how close their physical body is to perfection. Jean, who is flawless, was held in high reverence by the society. The Celestials were judging this world and its fate hanged in the balance. Jean, having acquired a spark of the Phoenix Force during the Inferno crisis, managed to keep it mostly suppressed until she was able to expel it while helping aliens fight off the Celestials. During this adventure Warren took on the name Archangel.; Back on Earth, X-Factor clashed with foes such as Sabretooth, Apocalypse, Caliban, Locust, Crimson, Mesmero, Infecta, the Ravens, the Right. When the nation of Genosha attempted to push their anti-mutant mandates with the aid of Cameron Hodge, X-Factor joined the X-Men and New Mutants in opposing them. Although Hodge was seemingly destroyed in the battle, the X-Men family was still greatly affected by the episode.; ===End Game===; Baby Nathan came to stay with X-Factor, but was later infected with a techno-organic virus by Apocalypse. As the virus spread through Nathan's body, threatening to turn Nathan into a body of liquid metal and organic steel, a member of the Clan Askani appeared from 2000 years in the future to Cyclops, saying Nathan would become a savior in their time, and that the Clan could cure him of the virus. Choosing to save his son's life, believing that he would never see him again, Cyclops agreed, and Nathan was taken 2000 years into an alternate future, where he would eventually become the man called Cable.; X-Factor came to the aid of their former teacher Professor Xavier as he had recently returned to Earth to face the threat of the Shadow King, who had taken over Muir Island and possessed most of the X-Men. Ultimately, X-Factor aided Xavier in freeing their comrades and seemingly destroying the Shadow King, however Xavier was crippled in the process. X-Factor decided to disband and rejoined a reorganized X-Men team.; ===Legacy===; With the original team disbanded, the government organized its own X-Factor that would operate for a number of years. It too would ultimately disband. The third incarnation of X-Factor evolved out of Jamie Madrox's X-Factor Investigations following the events of M-Day. The latest version of X-Factor emerged from Northstar's investigation into the apparent murder of his twin sister, Aurora and involved helping The Five with the resurrection process of dead mutants.

+X-Corps (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: X-Corps (Earth-616)
+Full name: X-Corps
+First appearance: Uncanny X-Men Vol 1 401
+Created by: Joe Casey; Ron Garney
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: The X-Corps acted as a mutant police force created by former X-Man Banshee.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: X-Corps Island; Formerly:; various locations worldwide (mainly across Europe)
+Notes: These teams should not be confused with the more finance-oriented X-Corporation, more often called "X-Corp".
+History:
+===Background===; After the death of Moira MacTaggert, long-term ally of the X-Men and his former lover, and the closing of the Massachusetts Academy, home to Generation X for which he was a former headmaster of the group, Banshee felt he had failed at everything in his life. He began to reevaluate the things in his life, and among one of those things was Charles Xavier's dream of peaceful coexistence between humans and mutants. In all his years of fighting alongside the X-Men, was there any real change that was enacted? With that thought, Banshee began to re-envision Xavier's dream in a daring new way: why not use mutants as a police force to regulate the activity of other mutants instead of waiting for a crisis to arise? With an abandoned A.I.M. facility, his links to Interpol, and the help of some of his former friends and pupils Banshee created the X-Corps. The force's goal was to police the mutant population in Europe.; Along with Multiple Man, his former students Husk, Jubilee, and M, former Alpha Flight member Radius, and one-time interim X-Men member Sunpyre, he formed the basis of his group. However, the distinct element that separated this group from other X-Men teams, was the inclusion of known terrorists, such as the Blob, Avalanche, and later Fever Pitch. Originally, Banshee kept these supervillains in line, with the help of Mastermind. Banshee had captured her and manipulated her illusionary powers to keep the villains under his control. Also as a "guest" was the enigmatic Abyss, who was being studied by Sunpyre.; ===Exploits===; The X-Corps didn't operate as a long term group. The team recruited Mystique, who was posing as a potential new member named Surge. Because of her shapeshifting abilities, Mystique was able to move secretly around the headquarters and she stumbled upon the captive Mastermind and allied herself with the entrapped woman. Together, they were able to free the minds of the villainous X-Corps members, as well as control several duplicates of Multiple Man, and use them in an assault on Paris. In the name of mutant superiority, the group incurred some massive damage to the city including the destruction of the Eiffel Tower. Thankfully, the X-Men, along with the heroic members of the X-Corps, were able to put an end to their rampage across the city.; ===Aftermath===; Unfortunately there were several casualties of the battles. The villainous Avalanche opened up the ground beneath Radius, apparently killing him. The validity of his death is cause for speculation since his power is to emit a constant bodily force field, but given the attack upon him, even if he survived the crushing effects of Avalanche's powers, he would surely have starved or suffocated to death hundreds of feet below the earth. Sunpyre, acting as the group scientist was brutally murdered by Mystique during her ascent to power. Even Banshee was incapacitated as Mystique stabbed a knife through his throat, the source of his sonic powers. Finally, as some karmic principle, Mystique was sucked into the interdimensional void of Abyss, not to be seen again for several months.; With the injuries sustained to Banshee and the city of Paris, the group was shut down, while some of the remaining resources and members, such as Multiple Man and M - were moved into Xavier's Paris branch of the X-Corps.; ===Post-Krakoan Era===; Just before the third Hellfire Gala, Sunspot gathered Layla Miller, Multiple Man, Trinary, and Wiz-Kid together to be the core crew of his new and improved X-Corps. Unfortunately, during their meeting, Orchis committed their "Mutant Massacre". With the mutant population of Earth scattered, Sunspot had to reconsider his mission. Sunspot travelled to Arakko to help Storm during the Genesis War while the rest of the new X-Corps was left to work on repurposing X-Corporation's flying island headquarters. With Mirage taking on some of the leadership responsibilities, the new X-Corps began covertly conducting their global guerilla war against Orchis and their allies, Selene's Externals.

The mutants would combine their powers and seemingly slay the Shadow King. Following the Shadow King's defeat, Destiny would be convince to accompany Nightcrawler to America and X-Calibre would be disbanded.; Following it's disbandment, only Nightcrawler has been seen active, having returned to the X-Men.

+First appearance: X-Factor Vol 3 17
+Created by: Peter David; Khoi Pham
+Identity status: Known to Authorities
+Species / origin: Following M-Day, many former mutants began to believe that it was a plan by the United States government in order to depower the "mutant threat."
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mutant Town, Manhattan, New York City, New York
+Equipment: Before being repowered, Reaper, Abyss, and Fatale used technological equivalents of their powers from The Isolationist. Callisto and Marrow used knives and their training, while Blob used his bulk of skin.
+Weapons: Callisto used throwing knives, Fatale used a poison-tipped, wrist-mounted blade, and Reaper utilized large blades. Abyss had a mechanical suit provided by The Isolationist.
+Transportation: Briefly used a stolen car.
+Notes: Aside from certain government authorities, X-Factor Investigations, and Quicksilver, no one was shown as being aware of the group's existence. Despite presenting themselves as some grand terrorist threat, they accomplished very little.
+History:
+===Origin===; Believing the United States government to be responsible for M-Day, these depowered mutants banded together and decide to execute terrorist acts. This began with sending a booby-trapped doll to the Undersecretary Edward Hutchinson's home on Christmas.; The founder and leader Elijah Cross recruited depowered mutants Fatale, Reaper, Abyss, Callisto, Marrow, Blob, and also received support from The Isolationist, who provided them armory in order to replicate their lost powers.; Elijah Cross was then targeted by the FBI and S.H.I.E.L.D. Cape-Killers, but was mistakenly rescued by Wolfsbane and Rictor, allowing him to flee out.; ===Against X-Factor Investigations===; Following this incident, they sought Quicksilver's aide in being re-powered so they could strike back more effectively. Seeking to use them for his own means, Quicksilver accepted, but only if they would find him a vessel, someone who he could use to channel his Terrigen Crystals-derived abilities through. Callisto tried to warn Elijah but her opinion was rejected.; Later, Blob mistakenly entered into a conflict with Rictor and Multiple Man as he crossed them with a sandwich while he was hungry. he beat up Rictor and was then joined by Fatale who poisoned a dupe. After a brief skirmish, Blob and Fatale fled in a stolen car.; After hitting a pothole left open earlier in the day by Strong Guy and Wolfsbane, Fatale was thrown clear and Blob was left hanging out of the wrecked car, as they were pursued by Siryn and M. Intending to arrest the two ex-mutants, they were stopped by Marrow's arrival, now using knives to replace her powers.; In the ensuing battle, Siryn was quickly injured by Marrow's wrist-mounted knives. While trying to stifle the injured Siryn, Blob was launched clear of the battle. Fatale was knocked unconscious by M. Unnoticed, Rictor was injured from a ricocheted bullet fired by Fatale. The fight ended with Siryn taking out Marrow as, still unnoticed, Rictor was dragged away by Reaper, already repowed by Quicksilver before joining the X-Cell.; While searching for the X-Cell, Strong Guy and and Wolfsbane ran into Abyss who utilized technological whips to throw Strong Guy clear of the battle, Reaper who was trying to transport Rictor to Quicksilver's headquarters, and a knife-throwing Callisto. With Strong Guy thrown clear of the battle, Wolfsbane attempted to tell the X-Cell members what really happened on M-Day but was stopped by Quicksilver, who disabled her with just a touch.; ===Final battle===; Quicksilver then repowered Fatale, Abyss, Elijah Cross, and Rictor. He offered to repower Marrow, but Callisto convinced her it wasn't a good idea (remembering her own experience with Pietro's repowering abilities). As an army of Madrox dupes launched an assault on Quicksilver's headquarters, the repowered members, including Reaper who had been repowered earlier fought back until Elijah Cross suddenly exploded. As the other members began feeling a heat build-up, Abyss snagged Reaper and Fatale, thrusting them into his Brimstone dimension and following them, in order to prevent them from explode in street.; Meanwhile, Callisto and Marrow learned of Quicksilver's role in the depowering of the world's mutants, holding off his future counterparts while Layla revealed the information. After an unseen counterpart of the speedster managed to stab Marrow from behind, Callisto fled with her to the sewers.; The final fate of the surviving X-Cell members was unknown by Madrox and Val Cooper, as well as the status of those who were dragged into the Brimstone Dimension, concerning their powers, whether they froze to that step, remained or were drained, and their current whereabouts are unknown.; ===Aftermaths and Legacy===; Quicksilver ended up captured by cops as a vagabond, and thrown in cell, where he mysteriously recovered his powers, and later accused a Skrull from impersonating him being responsible for the theft of the Terrigen Mists.; The Isolationist revealed his actions for the X-Cell, and tried to destroy the rest of mutantkind, but was stopped by a Terrigenesis-repowered and protected Rictor.; Callisto relocated to the tunnels below Manhattan and minded her own business until teenager runaways started showing up in the subways. She decided to bring them in with her and give them a home with her. This lead to a conflict with her old enemy Storm, who believed that one of the kids, Angie, was kidnapped. After learning the truth, Storm helped them with their power and water problems and let the runaways remain with her.; Marrow was later repowered by Volga at the cost of her unborn child and found by Cable who recruited her as part of his X-Force.; Blob became a weigh-loss guru in Japan and the cast leading actor for Kingo Sunen movie, but joined Magneto and the High Evolutionary. He returned repowered by MGH made from genética material taken from Dlazzer and back fighting for mutant rights among Mystique's Madripoorian Brotherhood.; Fatale, Reaper and Abyss were trapped in frozen time in the dimension, before A.I.M. scientist Terrance Hoffman managed to drag them out using some machine, but captured them, draining them from their energies for his own profit, and leaving them powerless. They were rescued by Serval Industries' X-Factor, composed of Polaris, Gambit and Quicksilver, but once they were saved, they clashed with this last because of the side-effect of the mists, promising him that they would never forgive him and to take revenge on him. When the Corporate X-Factor was first announced to the public, Fatale interrupted the press conference and claimed that Quicksilver blamed a Skrull for his crimes. Polaris called security, but as she was taken out, Quicksilver told the guard to let her go and publicly admitted that it was he, not a Skrull, who stole the mists. It is unknown if the three of them remained as the X-Cell.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Costa Rica; Formerly:; Utopia, San Francisco Bay; Graymalkin Industries, Marin Headlands, San Francisco
+Equipment: Ghost Box
+History:
+===Origin===; In response to the decimation of the mutant population on M-Day, Beast and Angel assembled a team of scientific specialists to restore the X-Gene. This team, known as the X-Club, included Dr. Nemesis. Madison Jeffries. and Dr. Yuriko Takiguchi. After resolving a misunderstanding with Takiguchi, who initially mistook them for Russian operatives, the group recruited Dr. Kavita Rao, a geneticist with experience in mutant biology.; Nemesis proposed that studying pre-mutant DNA could unlock the key to reactivating the X-Gene, using his own parents as a test case.; ===Time Travel and the Study of Mutation===; To locate Cable and the Mutant Messiah in the distant future, the X-Club developed an experimental time-travel device. Due to its instability, biological acceleration forced time travelers to return within a strict thirty-three-and-a-half-hour window.; Expanding upon this technology, Jeffries and Dr. Kavita Rao modified the device to journey into the past to study the origins of mutation. They traveled to 1906 San Francisco, seeking blood samples from Nemesis’ parents to analyze early genetic markers of mutation.; ===Utopia and Scientific Challenges===; With the mutant population relocating to Utopia, the X-Club turned its focus to ensuring the island’s stability. Alongside Magneto, they developed massive support structures to prevent Utopia from sinking while simultaneously creating a livable space for the Atlanteans.; During this time, they uncovered invasive nanotechnology infiltrating Utopia and investigated Predator-X creatures that had breached the island’s defenses. The X-Club also assisted Magneto in retrieving the bullet that contained Kitty Pryde.; The team suffered a loss when Dr. Takiguchi passed away from natural causes. Soon after, Beast, frustrated with Cyclops’ leadership, departed from both the X-Club and Utopia.; ===Bastion’s Assault and the Siege of Utopia===; The X-Club played a critical role in resisting Bastion’s assault on mutantkind. As Hope and Cable returned to the present, Bastion launched an all-out attack, cutting off Utopia and San Francisco within a massive red energy sphere. The X-Club, alongside the Avengers, attempted to breach the barrier, but even Thor’s power was unable to penetrate it.; ===Confrontation with the Evolutionaries===; When the X-Men faced the Evolutionaries once more, the X-Club was tasked with reconstructing a machine initially designed by Beast during their first encounter. To accomplish this, Psylocke extracted Cyclops’ memories and transferred them to Jeffries, allowing him to rebuild the device.; Before the project was completed, Dragoness and Litterbug attempted to sabotage their efforts, but intervention from Match, Rockslide, and Anole secured the machine. Upon activation, it triggered a conflict with the Evolutionaries, whose leader dismissed its effectiveness due to Beast’s absence. It was revealed that the Evolutionaries had previously erased the memories of both the X-Men and the Brotherhood of Mutants regarding their past dealings.; Despite this, the machine ultimately eliminated all but one of the Evolutionaries, who was sent millions of years into the past, swearing vengeance against Cyclops.; ===Reformation and Later Efforts===; Following the dissolution of Utopia, the X-Club was reassembled with Dr. Kavita Rao and Madison Jeffries among its key members. They later assisted Wolverine by constructing a containment cell for Dr. Alba.

+History:
+The original X-Babies were X-Men (Nightcrawler, Storm, Wolverine, Rogue, Colossus, Shadowcat, Magneto, Longshot and Psylocke) de-aged by Mojo; they were saved by the New Mutants. When the X-Men went missing during the Fall of the Mutants Mojo set about creating a replacement team from neoplasm. He created several other teams including Gender Swapped and Animal versions until creating the X-Babies. However, he decided they were a bad idea and was about to have them destroyed when they escaped, taking the pilot Ricochet Rita with them.; The group fled in Mojo's Crossover House and in the ensuing battle with Mojo's forces, escaped into Earth-616, with Rita being captured in the process and secretly converted into "The Agent" and sent after them. The group discovered Kitty Pryde on a train and upon startling her awake, Kitty phased out of the train. The group then had to return to Excalibur but had no forms of communication and were being pursued by the Agent, who captured several of the X-Babies but tricking them into signing contracts. They were freed when Kitty removed the signatures from the contracts. They captured the Agent during a fight between him and the X-Babies and Excalibur and Phoenix restored Rita. The X-Babies agreed to return to Mojo if he gave Rita her freedom. The X-Babies returned to Mojoworld alongside Rita as their guardian and had a list of demands that Mojo had to meet for them to return to work.; After Mojo was usurped by Longshot and Dazzler, Gog and MaGog set out to kill the X-Babies. Shower and several others fled to Earth-616 and sought help from the X-Men who protected the X-Babies until Dazzler arrived and ordered the pair to stand down. She allowed the X-Babies to come and lives in the royal palace for their protection.; The X-Babies later helped Wolverine defeat the Warwolves disguised as his teammates and enemies that Mojo II was using to help return the Mojoverse to its television watching state.; Some time after this, they constructed the Clubhouse for Gifted Youngsters in the Umbrella Forest and were lead by Charlie X who was considered their "Big Brother". Here, the X-Babies tried to save the Pix from the Brotherhood of Mutant Bullies. Failing in their mission the X-Babies returned to their base, only to be attacked and captured by Centennials (Parade balloons turned into Sentinels). The X-Babies were forced to take part in a game show designed by Funhouse (an Evil Baby version of Arcade), which included both quiz and deathtraps. The group failed at the quiz sections but were able to beat the traps and were eventually freed by Cyke and Locksteed. Funhouse threatened to turn the Brotherhood back into neoplasm if the X-Babies did not return and they were about to agree to this when Charlie X showed up with reinforcements and saved the X-Babies.; During one of their playpen sessions, Psychilde was involved in an accident that caused her cellular structure to decay rapidly. The X-Babies needed to use Mojo’s machines to save Psychilde. The Mighty ‘Vengers battled the X-Babies, stopping them getting to the machines. However, the ‘Vengers quickly realised that Mojo was a bad guy and so helped the X-Babies, resulting in Psychilde getting a new body.

+Base of operations: Genosha Bay; Formerly:; Xavier School For Exceptionally Wayward Youth
+History:
+The X Men are a group of sociopathic teenagers recruited by discredited psychiatrist Charles Xavier, who ran the "Xavier School for Exceptionally Wayward Youth" in Westchester, New York in 1937. There, he took in juvenile delinquents and instead of reforming them, he further trained them in various criminal talents due to his belief that sociopathy was in fact the next state in human behavioral evolution. The paper in which he stated this led to his expulsion from the American Psychological Association and interment at Riker's Island, awaiting charges after the truth about his reform school was made public. Xavier's arrest was mainly due to refusing Chief of Detectives Eric Magnus' proposal of allying the X Men with his Brotherhood for which Magnus retaliated by orchestrating the death of one of the X Men, Warren Worthington III, as an apparent case of suicide to draw the police's attentions and expose Xavier's treatments.; The remaining X Men, made up of Scott "Cyclops" Summers, Bobby "Iceman" Drake, and Henry "Beast" McCoy, remained on the run from the authority until being enlisted and allied with detective Tom Halloway, who operates as the vigilante the Angel, in battling Magnus and his Brotherhood. Ultimately, Beast and Iceman were killed at Welfare Pen, leaving Scott the only survivor of Xavier's original team.; A few months after the massacre at Welfare Pen, Professor Xavier was released from prison and created a new team of X Men consisting of Herr Wagner, Comrade Rasputin, and Ororo. The X Men aligned themselves with the Office of National Emergency (O*N*E*), as the organization saw the X Men as potential role models in recruiting sociopathic criminals and undesirables as ideal government operatives. The team worked in recovering the Gem of Cyttorak for O*N*E*, as the organization intended to use the gem as a bargaining chip with Prince Baran of Madripoor in order to relocating its training facility to a new, better location following the public controversy of Genosha Bay.

+The past history of X-Factor of Earth-21993 would mirror that of their Earth-616 counterparts up to the point prior to their aiding the X-Men in stopping the Shadow King. In this reality, X-Factor would be called into a meeting with Charles Xavier along with the X-Men and New Mutants following Xavier's return to Earth and his disappointment in the state of human/mutant affairs in his absence.; The ensuing meeting would lead to an argument of ideologies between Xavier and Cable ending in a clash between the New Mutants, X-Men and X-Factor and the New Mutants escaping. Cyclops and Marvel Girl would then meet with Xavier to discuss how to bring continued peace between humans and mutants. Cable would pick this time to assassinate Xavier, killing Scott and Jean in the process.; Their deaths would create a divide between the X-Men, with one group led by Storm seeking to bring Cable to justice and the other led by Wolverine seeking his death. Beast would join Storm's team, while Ice Man and Archangel would join Wolverine's.; Beast would be slain in an attack on the X-Mansion by the Fenris, while Archangel would be slain by Sentinels unleashed on the world after Magneto took over the USA. Ice Man would be captured by the Sentinels in the same attack and placed in an internment camp. He would ultimately be freed and Wolverine and brought into a new incarnation of the X-Men.

While examining the damage, the crew is startled by a large green dragon. The crew argued with their captain, Rick, about whether or not to kill the dragon, with Rick ultimately declaring they follow their orders and not attack the beast unless it attacked first.; While the crew continued bickering, a crewman spotted a large meteor headed toward the planet. The science officer of the crew announced that the meteor was travelling at the speed of light and would reach the planet within the hour. With no chance of repairing the ship in time, crew helplessly stood together watching the meteor approach. Before the meteor crashes into the planet, the dragon lifted its head and shot flames from its nostrils, knocking the meteor off its path.; The crew presumably repaired their ship and returned home.

When Spider-Man tossed a symbiote possessed-Thing outside, X-Factor and the Avengers confronted him. Shortly after, the Venom symbiote unleashed a swarm of symbiotes upon New York City, resulting in X-Factor and the Avengers being possessed by symbiotes and put under the symbiote's control.; Marvel Girl, Iceman, and the other heroes aided in the symbiote in chasing down Torch and Mary Jane with Marvel Girl using her telekinesis to help the flightless possessed heroes fly through the air. The symbiote and the controlled heroes were thwarted by the Invisible Woman after slamming them into a building with a force field. X-Factor then helped the symbiote corner Spider-Man into surrendering, but Spider-Man was actually Human Torch in disguise, and he killed the symbiote with his flames, freeing the heroes from the symbiote's control.

+History:
+After the events of X-Factor Vol 1 64, the X-Factor continued living on the Ship parked in New York City. X-Factor, Christopher Summers, Opal Tanaka, Thrish Tilby and her adoptive daughter Priya all joined Charlotte Jones in celebrating the birthday of her son Timmy. Nearby, Apocalypse sent the combined Master Mold and Cameron Hodge on a rampage in Chinatown. X-Factor took their loved ones to safety, before engaging the behemoth in battle, unaware that Apocalypse and Caliban were breaking into Ship but learning that Cameron Hodge has been merged with the Master Mold and that Apocalypse was behind it. X-Factor struggled against the Hodge-Master Mold before finally immobilizing him and reunited with their loved ones, but then noticed one of the Celestials - Gammenon the Gatherer - standing over the Ship.; Manhattan began to flood, but other heroes arrived to help the civilians while X-Factor made their way to Ship to find out what was going on. They found that Ship has been broken into by Apocalypse. Caliban battled X-Factor as Apocalypse spoke of the Celestials, Eternals and Deviants, before Marvel Girl and Cyclops managed to injure him. Apocalypse unleashed a gas on X-Factor, and stole baby Christopher Summers from them. Outside the Ship, another Celestial, Arishem the Judge had arrived.; Caliban, left behind by Apocalypse, told the X-Factor that all of this had something to do with the fact that mutant couples had few children. X-Factor fought Caliban, before he revealed that Apocalypse left him coordinates for a location in Nebraska. Ship informed X-Factor that there were enough heroes in New York to deal with the Celestials, so they departed for the co-ordinates. En route, Caliban explained that Apocalypse believed that all viable children born of mutant liaison were the result of some external intervention, and posed questions about Jean Grey, Madelyne Pryor and Cyclops's son. X-Factor arrived at the co-ordinates, finding a decommissioned nuclear silo. Inside, they found various clones of themselves and others and Mr. Sinister, their creator. Various clones of the X-Men and othered attacked X-Factor, with Cyclops and Jean Grey determined to win the battle against Sinister and rescue their son.; X-Factor and Caliban were still battling Sinister's clones when Apocalypse appeared, holding Cyclops' son. Archangel attacked his former master, but Apocalypse returned the baby to Cyclops, informing X-Factor that they had to take the baby to the Celestials, as he was the talisman that would preserve the Earth for another thousand years. Apocalypse teleported X-Factor back to the Ship, while he battled Sinister as the complex exploded. Back in Manhattan, Cyclops handed baby Christopher over to Arishem the Judge, who gave the "thumbs up" signal, and the Celestials seemingly departed for space. Apocalypse left a journal in the Ship's archive, which came online after the Celestials approved of Christopher. X-Factor began to watch the journal, learning that Apocalypse set up the Celestials to destroy Genosha. X-Factor contacted the Chief Magistrate and urged her to evacuate everyone off Genosha, but the Chief Magistrate was unconvinced. Marvel Girl ordered the Ship to hack into the Genoshan media and tell everyone to get off the island. At that moment, the Celestials appeared over Genosha, and Arishem gave the "thumbs down" signal, destroying the island. Ship managed to teleport as many as it could from the island, including Havok and Wolfsbane, before the Celestials departed. Acting as an arc, Ship hovered over the Genoshan water so that X-Factor could rescue the remaining surviving Genoshans.

+History:
+During the Acts of Vengeance conspiracy, three members of the Mystique-led U.S. government superteam Freedom Force — Avalanche, Blob, and Pyro — assaulted Avengers Island without authorization. This act fueled the distrust that certain factions within the government already harbored toward Freedom Force, leading to the formation of M-Branch, a scientific offshoot created by a fanatical faction that had previously supported the failed Superhuman Registration Act. They appointed Roland Blaisdell as the head of Project: X-Force. Under his leadership, M-Branch recruited eight individuals from a group of patriotic military volunteers. The M-Branch scientists then subjected these volunteers to cosmic rays and/or gamma radiation in an attempt to replicate the transformations that had empowered the Fantastic Four and the Hulk.; The subjects were then given codenames of X-Men, who had seemingly died in the recent battle against the demonic Adversary, and that best corresponded with their new powers and formed the government-sponsored X-Force: Lemuel Sullivan was given Colossus, Kimberly Schau was given Dazzler, Bermuda Schwartz was given Havok, Victor Barlow was given Rogue, William Read was given Storm, Ryan Laporto was given Wolverine, Roger Welton was given Longshot, and Matt Coris was given Psylocke.; During their training, all members of X-Force began showing symptoms of radiation poisoning to varying degrees. To address this, Roland Blaisdell took them to Midtown Hospital in Manhattan for treatment under Dr. Ilsa Moon, a leading radiation expert. With his considerable government resources, Blaisdell expanded Dr. Moon's facilities, but despite her efforts, the condition of the subjects continued to worsen, leading to the apparent deaths of Psylocke, Longshot, and Wolverine. Rather than trying to save them, Blaisdell, solely focused on the end result, instructed Dr. Moon to stop her efforts and simply collect data on their decline and death for future attempts.; Frustrated by the loss of their teammates, the remaining X-Force members resisted sedation, wanting to face their inevitable demise on their own terms. Meanwhile, Cloak and Dagger, who were at the hospital visiting Father Delgado, overheard the commotion and mistakenly believed the X-Force members were attacking soldiers. They intervened, siding with M-Branch's forces. When Blaisdell arrived, deeming X-Force more trouble than they were worth, he ordered the termination of the entire group. Dazzler was killed and Rogue was wounded, but Colossus, Havok, and Storm managed to follow Dr. Moon to the roof, where they attempted to escape. After learning the true nature of the X-Force team, Cloak and Dagger's stance changed, and they became sympathetic to their cause.; After recovering from a glancing head wound, Rogue was persuaded by Blaisdell that it was his patriotic duty to make the ultimate sacrifice. He also attempted to convince the rest of his teammates to fulfill their obligation, threatening to kill them personally if they didn’t comply. Rogue then sided with Blaisdell's forces and engaged the others. However, Cloak and Dagger intervened, helping to fight off the attackers and teleporting Colossus, Havok, Storm, and Dr. Moon to the Holy Ghost Church. Once there, Dagger used her light-based powers to clear the radiation from their bodies, effectively curing them.; The surviving X-Force members took on new identities—Wall (Lemuel Sullivan), Bedlam (Bermuda Schwartz), and Tempest (William Read)—and chose to go into hiding. Dr. Moon decided to accompany them, offering to provide medical care and financial support as they planned to eventually dismantle Blaisdell's secret operation. Meanwhile, Rogue remained determined to track down his former teammates, but Blaisdell reassured him that they would not survive much longer, as he was more focused on selecting the next batch of volunteers for his experiments.

+Trivia: Legion was originally going to be a founding member of this team. However, then-incoming writer Peter David felt it was impossible to work him into the group in a way that didn't feel too contrived.
+History:
+After events on Muir Island, the original members of X-Factor, who were also the original members of the X-Men, rejoined the X-Men. Feeling a need to continue a separate, but government affiliated mutant team, Professor Charles Xavier and Cyclops traveled to Genosha, where Cyclops' brother, Alex Summers (Havok), was working. Havok was recruited to lead the team, and X-Factor was restarted as a new government-sponsored team, with Val Cooper acting as government liaison. Wolfsbane, Polaris, Strong Guy, Multiple Man, and Quicksilver filled out the original roster.; One of the first villains the team faced was Mister Sinister and his lackeys, the 'Nasty Boys'. Sinister hoped to discredit mutant kind and used X-Factor to do so. One of Sinister's behind-the-scenes allies was a power-hungry Senator with the power to cause bad luck. Strong Guy was manipulated into destroying the Washington Monument while fighting Slab, one of the Nasty Boys. The Senator, who was after the entirety of the X-Factor team, was later slain by Mr. Sinister himself.; Quicksilver left X-Factor and returned to the Avengers.; During mission to the island nation of Genosha, one of Madrox's duplicates contracted the deadly Legacy Virus. When reabsorbed, it was believed Madrox himself was infected. The mutant prophetess Haven offered to cure Madrox of the Virus, but the attempt failed and he seemingly died.; While in the South Seas island nation of Madripoor, the team became trapped in a confrontation between Lila Cheney and the alien race, the K'Lanti. Lila had stolen an object of great value, called the Harmonium, during the midst of political chaos. The aliens, after destroying a city block, disperse diamond shaped bombs throughout the city. Despite the neutralization of the bombs and the return of their object, the aliens left behind one last explosive. Strong Guy absorbed the energy of its explosion. Despite releasing it with powerful punches, he suffered a powerful heart attack. He was forced to go into suspended animation.; Wolfsbane left the team, choosing to move back to her home, Muir Island, after learning her adopted mother Moira MacTaggert had contracted the Legacy Virus. She joined Excalibur.; Havok was captured by the Dark Beast. After Havok's disappearance Forge assumed leadership of the team. The additions of Mystique and Sabretooth to the team as well as their investigation into the Hound Program caused them to question their role. Sabretooth escaped and attacked the team. They soon moved underground.; X-Factor was sent on a mission to apprehend a mysterious figure who was revealed to be Madrox, alive and well. Madrox unconsciously stayed split into separate bodies, ensuring that the Legacy Virus would be contained in one body and not duplicate into the others. When the infected body died, the shock of its death had caused Madrox to lose his memory. Madrox had been recruited by elements of the U.S. government who wanted to turn him into the ultimate secret agent, training him to become a one-man army.; Havok returned, seeking to combine the team with his Brotherhood allies. Three XUE mutants, Archer, Fixx, and Greystone, came to the past trapped in the bodies of other individuals. They were unable to return to their own time and briefly joined the team. Greystone slowly developed temporal insanity. In an attempt to return to his own time, Greystone built a flying time machine, but due to shoddy craftsmanship and unsound theories, the craft exploded, seemingly killing Greystone and Havok, who was attempting to stop him. However, Havok was actually sent to Earth-1298. The team finally disbanded.; Sometime later, Jamie Madrox created an investigation group called X-Factor Investigations, which came to include many members of the Government team.; ===Brought to You By ClikClok===; After the Fall of X, X-Factor was restarted through a partnership between the U.S. government and TV producer Rodger Broderick, sponsored by the social media company ClikClok. They recruited Angel as team leader, along with Cameo, Feral, Firefist, Frenzy, and Xyber. The faced immediate opposition from the Mutant Underground resistance and their supporters. On their first mission against X-Term, Angel, Cameo, Feral, and Firefist were all killed or severely injured, removing them from the lineup. They were replaced by Havok as leader as well as Frenzy, Granny Smite, Pyro, Cecilia Reyes.; During an attack by X-Term, Wintergeist was killed, ending a short stint on the team. It became clear that the government leadership saw them as expendable and was hiding a major secret from them. They were ultimately rescued by Polaris, now leading the Mutant Underground, after which Frenzy and Havok both left the team. Angel returned as leader, joined by ForgetMeNot.

+First appearance: New Mutants Vol 1 100
+Created by: Fabian Nicieza; Rob Liefeld
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The team started with the remainders of the New Mutants under the leadership of Cable as a more militaristic force to assist mutants.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Adirondack Mountains, New York; Formerly:; S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier "Pericles", Pacific Ocean; Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation; X-Bunker, Nebraska; Xavier Institute for Higher Learning, Salem Center, North Salem, Westchester County, New York; Murderworld; Camp Verde Reservation, Arizona
+Notes: X-Force co-creator Rob Liefeld has expressed that the team was created to contrast the "mopey group" that the X-Men had become at the time, and it was envisioned as a much a more aggressive arm of the X-Men. He believed that "somewhere between Xavier's pacifists views and Magneto's terrorist views there had to be an activist view."
+History:
+===A Force to be Reckoned With===; The outlaw group of outlaw mutants named X-Force was born from the radicalization of the New Mutants, a group of former students enrolled at the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. The New Mutants crossed paths with the cyborg independent soldier known as Cable for they shared enemies in the form of the government sponsored Freedom Force and the terrorist Mutant Liberation Front. After discussing matters with Dr. Moira MacTaggert, Cable took the unattended young mutants under his wing, being based at the ruins of the Xavier's School.; Under Cable's tutelage, the New Mutants experienced unprecedented pain and embraced his extreme and proactive ways to deal with mutant-related incidents, especially against Cable's main adversary, the leader of the Mutant Liberation Front, Stryfe. However, his group of protégés changed drastically. When the New Mutants were abducted to Genosha by Cameron Hodge, the team lost Warlock and Wolfsbane. This led Rictor to depart, for he did not trust Cable. Subsequently, following the demise of his magnate father, Sunspot left with the mysterious Gideon. In between these changes, Cable invited his former ally Domino to help him guide the youngsters, even though the only ones left were the loyal Cannonball and the undisciplined Boom Boom. During this time, they learned the evil Mr. Tolliver wished to punish Cable, having the mercenary Deadpool target him and his group. Moreover, unbeknownst to Cable, Domino had been in fact replaced by the shapeshifter Vanessa under Tolliver's orders.; The team was apparently falling apart, but unexpectedly counted with new addictions. They took in a vengeful James Proudstar, who accepted to join Cable's operation as Warpath after witnessing his ancestral home defiled by the Hellfire Club, the deadly warrior from Mojoworld named Shatterstar, who happened upon them in their training site, the Danger Room, and the erratic Feral, who sought for protection from Masque and his radical sewer-dweller Morlocks. Considering the Xavier's School to be an unsafe place to hide from Tolliver, Cable choose to leave with his team, rebranding it as X-Force.; Where the other X-teams believed in protecting humans from evil mutants, X-Force adopted a proactive and harsh attitude towards mutant terrorists. Their first mission was to directly strike the Mutant Liberation Front. Their brutal ways put S.H.I.E.L.D. agent G. W. Bridge on their track. X-Force ironically hid at the abandoned anti-mutant Sentinel Headquarters. Soon after, the criminals Black Tom and the Juggernaut took Sunspot and Gideon hostages and attempted to destroy the World Trade Center twin towers in New York. The gracious Siryn wished to stop them, and joined Cable and X-Force for it. With Spider-Man's assistance, X-Force brutally put the terrorists down, but Deadpool was able to furtively capture them. In the aftermath, Bridge tried to arrest X-Force, but the mutants escaped. However, Gideon blamed X-Force for the incident, reinforcing their reputation as terrorists.; Wishing for revenge against X-Force, Masque's Morlocks formed an alliance with Toad's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. The Brotherhood surprised X-Force in their base. During the fight between the two groups, Cannonball was mortally wounded by Sauron. Cable responded with lethal force, while Shatterstar finished Masque. Cannonball miraculously survived and Cable displayed Masque's lifeless body to other Morlocks as a warning for them not to mess with X-Force.; Deadpool tormented Vanessa about her association with Tolliver. X-Force confronted her without being aware she was not the real Domino, forcing her to lead them to Tolliver. Simultaneously, Bridge was able to intercept X-Force with his own team Weapon P.R.I.M.E., which counted with Rictor as a member. X-Force defeated Weapon P.R.I.M.E., but, before they could go back to tracking Tolliver, he detonated a trap Vanessa had set up. This caused Cable and Vanessa to get separated from X-Force. Without Cable, Rictor defected and chose to join his former allies. In order to escape Bridge, X-Force went to the reservation Warpath lived in Camp Verde, but they were intercepted by Crule due to Gideon's machinations. After defeating Crule, X-Force decided to save Sunspot from Gideon, who had been performing experiments on him. Meanwhile, Cable and Vanessa found Tolliver, Deadpool and the real Domino. Finally reunited, Cable and Domino knocked their enemies out. Cable chose to take Mr. Tolliver by himself, leaving Domino behind. Both Cable and Tolliver vanished, and X-Force was left with not mentors.; ===No More Cable===; When Stryfe made an assassination attempt on Professor Charles Xavier, he was in the guise of Cable. Assuming Cable was the assassin, X-Factor and the X-Men hunted X-Force. A fight ensued and X-Force was defeated. X-Force's members were taken prisoner and locked up in the X-Men's Danger Room for a time. They were later released after Cannonball argued with Professor Xavier that their actions were no different from the X-Men, and their intentions were not his to police. X-Force continued its status as an outlaw band of mutants, dodging both their enemies and the government agents of Operation: Zero Tolerance.; X-Force eventually crossed paths with the British spy Pete Wisdom, who trained them and channelled their power for his interests. His schemes eventually culminated with X-Force being disbanded. The name X-Force was adopted by the cast of a reality show featuring mutants without permission. Feeling degraded, the original team confronted the poseurs over the name with no success since it had been trademarked. Eventually, the reality show team renamed themselves as X-Statix. Around this period, Cable reassembled some former members of X-Force for his Underground in order to oppose the revival of the Weapon X program, which violated mutant rights in their experiments.; ===Black Ops X-Force===; When the first new mutant was born since M-Day, Cyclops ordered the reforming of X-Force. Wolverine led the team to hunt down Cable and the newborn mutant. Later, Cyclops secretly organized a new X-Force, with all of the best trackers at his disposal. This team operated with a similar philosophy as the old one, that of targeting potential threats before they had the chance to become dangerous. Instead of simply targeting evil mutants however, this incarnation of X-Force targeted any potential threat to mutantkind.; For detailed information about the killer squad team of X-Force, see X-Force; ===Most Wanted: Mutant Terrorists===; In his final mission, Cable brought the first mutant born after M-Day he had named Hope back to the present, he sacrificed his own life, by surrendering his body to the techno-organic virus infection, to protect her from Bastion and his Council. In fact, he timeslid to the future, being saved by his guardian Blaquesmith. He learned the Avengers would pose a threat to Hope and the X-Men in the present and travelled in time to hunt them down, even though his infected body was in terminal condition. Hope and Cyclops intervened. Cable failed in his attempt by having succumbed to the virus. After being brought to Utopia, he had the virus purged from his organism thanks to Hope, who wielded the Phoenix Force. Cable's predictions turned out to be true, since a war between the Avengers and X-Men erupted. During the crisis, he left Utopia unnoticed.; No longer having his psychic powers limited by the techno-organic virus, he experienced an exponential growth in power in the form of precognitive visions about imminent threats. The premonitions led him to return to his extremist methods. He sought out the insane inventor Forge in China and fixed his fractured mind in order for him to join his mission. They set base in a junkyard in Nebraska. Cable later recruited the genius Doctor Nemesis. However, Hope was able to get to him through his associate Domino. Together, Domino and Hope successfully dealt with the outbreak of a Transmode Virus attack in Miami Beach while Cable struggled with his changing mind. After that, the former X-Man Colossus, who had problems with his powers, was recruited by Cable. The vigilante X-Force was fully reformed to help Cable stop all the disasters he foresaw.; As their first mission, X-Force intended to prevent the Eat-More fast-food chain's owner Teresa Payton from releasing an infectious disease that would damage the public opinion about mutants. Cable inadvertently kicked Hope out of the team before the operation. In a processing plant in Sedona, Cable and X-Force dealt with the infected victims with lethal force using the Transmode Virus. The Avengers Unity Division, which dealt with mutant-human relations intervened, leading to a brief confrontation between the two groups followed by X-Force escaping. As a result, the media labelled X-Force as mutant terrorists. The fugitives retreated to Mexico. When Cable was assigning the outlaw X-Force a new mission, Colossus decided to turn himself in to the authorities.; Colossus was locked up at the Raft, where the alien Kliktok was secretly kept by S.W.O.R.D.. Cable's plan was to free Kliktok in order to prevent him from escaping and causing a murderous spree on Earth. This led X-Force to steal S.W.O.R.D. equipment to accomplish their mission, during which Cable counted with the moral support of Cyclops. Meanwhile, Domino and Boom-Boom broke into the Raft, freeing Colossus and Kliktok; the latter took them hostage. As a result, S.W.O.R.D. commander Abigail Brand arrested Cable and Colossus for having contributed to liberate such a dangerous mass-murderer. After learning their reasons, Brand extra-officially helped X-Force rescue their teammates and kill Kliktok. X-Force then stole Brand's ship and abandoned in outer space before she could take action against them.; Brand reported X-Force to the Avengers Unity Division, which made imperative for them to capture the mutant terrorists. Following a brutal fight, X-Force was able to escape, but Cable got captured by the Unity Division. Even without their leader, X-Force kept following his agenda. Domino and Boom Boom impeded a mutant boy from causing an accidental massacre at a hospital that Cable had predicted. In Zurich, Domino and Colossus acquired an artifact to summon a devilish horde of monsters and eliminate them proactively. Still, freeing Cable was eventually made a priority, and X-Force raided the Avengers Mansion, fighting the Avengers Unity Division in the process. Simultaneously, Hope wished to help Cable by herself. She contacted Blaquesmith, who sent her to the future for answers. She learned that a future version of herself, Stryfe, had been responsible for linking Cable's mind to the predictive brain of a Deathlok, inflicting the premonitions. Her intention was to prevent a dystopic future from happening. However, they learned the intervention caused Cable's powers to develop dangerously and trigger the tragic future. Back to the present, Hope stopped the fight between X-Force and the Avengers Unity Division. Wielding a Psimitar, she cured Cable. Realizing Cable's work was necessary in its way, Unity Division's leader Havok set him free.; X-Force could operate more freely without being actively hunted by the Avengers. They dismantled different operations. Cable and Hope dealt with the Reavers in Australia while Domino and Colossus acted on Trask Sentinels in Colorado. However, during these missions, X-Force noticed that Forge acted erratically, with his systems causing them problems to the team. Soon, it was revealed Forge had been tormented by his long-term nemesis, the entity known as the Adversary. In their headquarters, Doctor Nemesis and Boom Boom fought the Adversary. Doctor Nemesis was able to trick the Adversary with his mind. After dealing with the respective crises, X-Force members reassembled at their headquarters.; ===The Ends Justify the Means===; In one of Cable's premonitions, Hope noticed Bishop's presence. Bishop had attempted to kill Hope since she was born, being the pure representation of her nightmares. She pinpointed his location and found him in Los Angeles with the other X-Force team, at the time run by the X-Men Psylocke and Storm, who had removed the memories about Hope from his mind. When Hope made her move against Bishop, a vengeful Stryfe took the opportunity to kidnap them. Looking for their respective teammates, the two groups of X-Force clashed with each other. After Cable was teleported away by Spiral to Stryfe's hideout, the two teams called a truce to locate and rescue their missing teammates. They found Hope and Bishop, who had put their sorrowful past behind and joined forces to evade Stryfe and save Cable. Stryfe was mortally wounded by Cable and vanished, but not before augmenting Hope's powers to dangerous levels. Bishop saved her by rechannelling the excessive energies. In the aftermath, Storm and Psylocke disbanded their X-Force, but Psylocke saw in Cable's team an opportunity to carry on her need for a cause.; Cable and Hope witnessed the "Alexandria Incident", an attack on a defence symposium in the city of Alexandria, an incident tied to a mutant. Cable reformulated X-Force as a black ops team to protect the interests of the mutant community. To this end, he had Psylocke, Doctor Nemesis, Fantomex, and Marrow at his side.; ===Sins of the Past===; When the anti-mutant cyborg Ahab started to hunt the time-displaced original X-Men, Cable attempted to protect them. He failed, however, being oddly executed by a teenage version of himself. His demise hit the original members of X-Force hard, prompting them to seek revenge against their leader's killer. The X-Men, on the other hand, wished to be cautious and hide the original X-Men from Ahab. The teenage Cable still managed to overcome them, though. The past version of Jean Grey then decided to ally herself with X-Force instead in order to find Cable. Being able to turn some mutants into Hounds, Ahab had Shatterstar turn against X-Force, but Cannonball stopped him in time, returning to the X-Men at the Xavier Institute. Meanwhile, Jean Grey and X-Force eventually made it to Cable's hideout where Cable explained that his older version did not protect the timeline properly by returning the time-displaced X-Men to their past, where they would be safe from Ahab. Realizing the possible outcome of Ahab's actions, Jean Grey and X-Force then decided to help the young Cable restore the order of the timeline. With Cable's help, the original X-Men returned to their timeline. However, Ahab, having a permanent hold on Rachel Grey, was able to escape, much alike Cable, who also vanished.; X-Force still wished for explanations and investigated Cable's whereabouts, being led to Transia. Transia had become an apparent haven to mutants, but eradicated them in violent ways under Commandant Constantin's rule. Cable and Deathlok had infiltrated in the Transian army to stop the secret murderous policies and learn the true origins of the futuristic weapons used there. Their cover was destroyed when Deathlok got captured, but the duo was ultimately saved by X-Force. In Bulgaria, as Cable explained to X-Force the situation in Transia, Constantin killed the president of Transia and blamed Cable and X-Force of the crime. In fact, Constantin was working in coalition with a jailed Ahab, who had searched for ways to travel in time again, and a teenage version of Stryfe, who wished to prevent Cable from erasing the dystopic timeline he came from.; As international terrorists, X-Force actively rescued several mutants in Transia, creating a hidden refugee camp. In one of their raids, they met a mutant infiltrated in the Transian army, the pyrokinetic Andrei. Deathlok and Andrei returned to the Transian Federal House disguised as Transian soldiers. However, Constantin's forces ambushed X-Force at their hideout, a result of Andrei's betrayal for he in fact worked with Stryfe. Simultaneously, Ahab turned against Constantin and managed to capture Deathlok to empower himself. X-Force directed their force directly at a Transian military base, from where Cable wished to rescue Rachel Grey. In a brutal duel, Ahab and Constantin destroyed each other, leading X-Force to learn Rachel Grey was trapped in the future. With the mutant prisoners freed, Stryfe introduced himself and his Mutant Liberation Army to X-Force. Learning that Stryfe had Rachel Grey and Cable's Clan Chosen captured in the future, Cable surrendered and left X-Force.; X-Force was able to craft a portal to the future in order to rescue Cable and Rachel Grey. There, they met the followers of the Clan Askani. The Mutant Liberation Army attacked them, but Stryfe lost his influence over his minions due to directing his power to control Rachel Grey, the founder of Clan Askani. Afraid of losing the battle, Stryfe released Rachel Grey to overpower X-Force and the Clan Askani. With Blaquesmith's assistance, X-Force found Cable and the Clan Chosen, severely debilitated due to his techno-organic virus infection. However, Rachel Grey was free and represented a chance against Stryfe by severing his influence over the Mutant Liberation Army. Cable spared Stryfe's life in order not to change history to his personal gain. Instead, they imprisoned Stryfe and wiped out his memories about the present. No longer bound to a mission, X-Force disbanded as they returned to the present, but not before sharing they came to respect the young Cable. Soon after, in the mutant nation of Krakoa, a new X-Force operation was established as a governmental intelligence institution.; For detailed information about the Krakoan X-Force, see X-Force; ===Shadows of Tomorrow===; After failing to stop the future assassination of the first mutant President of the United States, the older Cable traveled back in time to shortly after the Fall of Krakoa. He found himself back in X-Force's old base in the Adirondack Mountains, with most of his equipment damaged and suffering from partial amnesia. Cable saw the names Archangel, Hellverine and Boom-Boom and the message "One Of Us" burned onto his arm. Based on these clues, Cable recruited them into X-Force to prevent the assassination but also suspected one of the three to be the future assassin. The reorganized X-Force helped Ms. Marvel thwart a terrorist plot from the reformed Mutant Liberation Front, and Cable revealed to her that she would be the first mutant president whose assassination would lead to a war between mutantkind and humanity. Ms. Marvel turned down Cable's offer of protection and training from X-Force but agreed to join them.; Because of the gaps in his memory, Cable sought out Domino and tasked her with keeping an eye on him during his activities with X-Force.; For the team's first mission, they went after the Blasphemy Cartel, who were rumored to be using a new weapon against mutants. The "weapon" was revealed to be the angel Anielle, who the Cartel had captured and were planning to torture into being used as a weapon against mutants. While the rest of X-Force was preoccupied with fighting Barberry Boone, Cable was alone with Anielle, who offered to judge one soul of his choice as a reward for rescuing her. Cable chose Hellverine, who Anielle confirmed would not be Ms. Marvel's future murderer.; After the team stole intel from the Beyond Corporation, they uncovered files of the Malachi Project involving cloning mutants, leading to a confrontation with H.A.T.E. director Dirk Anger and his squad of Broccoli Men clones, which included clones of Boom-Boom. With Anger stopped, Cable uncovered a hard drive which revealed that all of Anger's Boom-Boom clones refused to carry out suicide-bombing missions; believing that the real Boom-Boom would do the same, Cable removed her as a suspect, leaving only Archangel as the prime suspect.; During her surveillance, Domino witnessed Cable transform into something while he was by himself and privately confronted him in his quarters at X-Force's base. Cable refused to believe her when she suggested his powers weren't keeping his Techno-Organic Virus in check and she inflicted a minor wound on him to see it would emerge just as Boom-Boom walked in on them. Before Domino could explain herself, Boom-Boom ignited one of her bombs which exploded prematurely.; Domino escaped before the rest of X-Force arrived and Archangel used his Death Seed to revive Boom-Boom who was near death. As Cable and Boom-Boom had no recollection of Domino's presence, suspicion immediately fell to Archangel which further deepened after he revealed that tapping into the Death Seed was causing a different persona to emerge. Hellverine used his magic to trace the source of Archangel's new energies, leading X-Force to an abandoned S.H.I.E.L.D. black site in Florida. There, the team encountered the Nasty Boys and Mister Sinister, who transformed Archangel into a new persona and put him under his thrall.; Sinister compelled Archangel, now Blood Angel, into attacking his teammates and revealed his plans to use Blood Angel and every mutant who was resurrected on Krakoa against Apocalypse and offered an alliance with X-Force. With Boom-Boom's help, Blood Angel was able to free himself from Sinister's control. Seemingly accepting Sinister's offer, he resurrected the Nasty Boys but used the Death Seed to revert back to Archangel and killed Sinister while freeing the Nasty Boys from him.; While the team returned to base, Cable revealed the truth of their recruitment but exonerated them as suspects as the strength of character they displayed during their missions proved their innocence to him, and deduced that "One Of Us' was warning him of another mutant outside of X-Force. While Cable later met with Domino at her safehouse to discuss their earlier confrontation, an unknown entity took over him and mind-wiped her.; Now believing the new Mutant Liberation Front or another mutant radicalized by them would commit the assassination, Cable formulated a plan with X-Force to thwart the MLF's new leader Kali from further radicalizing people to her dangerous cause. X-Force lured the MLF into a trap at an abandoned Hydra base in New Mexico, where Hellverine posed as an underworld broker offering the sale of Zero's remains. X-Force ambushed them and held them long enough for Cable to activate Zero's teleportation tech to imprison the MLF at X-Force's base. However, interrogating the MLF proved to be more difficult than expected, which got further complicated when Cyclops arrived at X-Force's base to demand the return of Zero's remains but Ms. Marvel managed to get Kali's location from the MLF.

Apocalypse failed, however, and Professor X died. When Apocalypse attempted to assert himself as the X-Men's new leader, X-Men and members of X-Factor fought Apocalypse. Most of the X-Men and X-Factor members Havok and Polaris were killed by Apocalypse.; The remaining members of the X-Men and X-Factor joined with X-Force to stop Apocalypse who had gone to Stryfe's base on the Moon. Apocalypse defeated them and was on the verge of killing X-Force's leader Cable when Stryfe appeared and decided to fight Apocalypse, resulting in the pair both dying. What remained of X-Factor was disbanded and merged with the X-Men, which were now led by Cable.

+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: Corporately funded superhero team created by Harrison Snow of Serval Industries.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Virginia
+Transportation: Raptor Jet
+History:
+Wishing to create the first corporate owned superhero team, Serval Industries CEO Harrison Snow went about creating a new X-Factor. He first recruited Polaris to lead the team, and purchased the rights of the name from Jamie Madrox following his retirement from X-Factor Investigations. Polaris in turn recruited Gambit, while Quicksilver simultaneously volunteered to join the team.; In their first mission, the three initial members of X-Factor rescued Fatale, Reaper, and Abyss from an A.I.M. base, where they were held hostage and experimented upon by Dr. Terrance Hoffman, a human who extracted their mutant abilities to empower himself. However, the three mutants held a grudge against Quicksilver, who had temporarily repowered them with Terrigen Crystals following the Decimation, a method which had caused their powers to become unstable, and so they departed on poor terms.; Fatale would later return to confront Quicksilver during the team's initial press conference, leading Pietro to publicly admit for the first time that it was he who had used the Terrigen Crystals to bring about harmful mutations in depowered mutants, rather than a Skrull imposter as he had previously claimed. This admission brought him into conflict with his ex-wife Crystal and Gorgon of the Inhumans, but earned him the respect of his estranged daughter, Luna.; Following a hack of the Serval Industries computer system operated by Anton Wexler, X-Factor tracked the theft to the Mediterranean island occupied by the Thieves Guild, whose ruler was none other than team member Gambit. Though Gambit professed ignorance of the crime, he correctly surmised that the technomancer Nil was behind the theft. Traveling to the island, they discovered that Nil had accomplished the feat by mind-controlling Danger, an A.I. formerly with the X-Men. Polaris freed Danger, who had no recollection of her past and attempted to kill everyone present. Following an extended confrontation, and a failed evacuation of the island, Gambit was able to restore some of Danger's memory and personality with a kiss, leading the android to return to Virginia with the team.; A business meeting between Harrison Snow and Lemar Smaug, C.E.O. of Techno, Inc., turned violent when Danger revealed that Smaug was actually Magus, leader of the Technarch, and that he was working with his son Warlock. The team sought out Cypher, Warlock's former partner in the New Mutants, for help in tracking the two aliens to their base in Houston. Although they came prepared for a fight, Magus revealed that their planet had been rendered uninhabitable by a technological virus, and that he was renouncing his species' traditional violence. Following the reunion between Cypher and Warlock, the latter quit Techno, Inc. and both of them joined the X-Factor team.

However, Apocalypse swiftly defeated them. X-Force's leader Cable confronted Apocalypse, but he was overpowered and would have been killed when Stryfe appeared and decided to oppose Apocalypse, leading to both of them dying.

+Reality: Earth-TRN566
+Notes: This version of X-Factor first appeared in Adventures of the X-Men Vol 1. Adventures of the X-Men was a continuation of X-Men Adventures Vol 3 (which up to that point adapted X-Men: The Animated Series), but it went off in its own direction with new stories and ignored the continuity of the animated series after the Dark Phoenix saga. This meant that the version of X-Factor introduced in "Cold Comfort" was ignored, since its events were non-canonical to Earth-TRN566.; Aside from the team lineup of Earth-TRN566's X-Factor, other differences on Earth-TRN566 include how it's public knowledge that Cyclops and Havok are brothers and Quicksilver was still a member of Magneto's Brotherhood. "Cold Comfort" on the other hand, established that on Earth-92131, Quicksilver was on X-Factor with a different team lineup that included not just Havok and Polaris, but also Forge, Wolfsbane, Multiple Man, and Strong Guy. Additionally, Earth-92131's Cyclops and Havok remain unaware that they're brothers.
+History:
+X-Factor was formed by the government as a mutant team assigned to bring in mutant threats so they can be treated. The team can also be assigned to dealing with larger non-mutant threats, such as the Hulk.; When Earth TRN-566 was destroyed and replaced with a new Earth, this version of X-Factor also perished.

+Base of operations: Formerly:; The Greenhouse, North Pole; The Pointe, Atlantic Ocean
+Transportation: Krakoa Gateways; Gateway
+History:
+===Mutant CIA===; The foundation of the nation of Krakoa by Professor Xavier united mutantkind on a island-nation in the Pacific Ocean, but led to outrage among human supremacists. In response to this, the shadowy anti-mutant organization XENO launched a terrorist attack against the fledgling country which resulted in the deaths of Xavier and several other mutants. To access the island, the agents tricked chief of security Black Tom's surveillance by using the genome of a captured Domino to mask their own. However, mutants could now be resurrected on Krakoa, which allowed Jean Grey and Beast to arrange for Xavier's return. Meanwhile, Wolverine was joined by Kid Omega in retrieving Domino from a facility in Seoul, and Sage, Black Tom and the physician Cecilia Reyes studied XENO's invasion plans.; During the incident's debrief, Xavier proposed the creation X-Force, the Krakoan intelligence agency: Beast directed the organization, being supervised by Jean Grey and assisted by Sage, who monitored the transit in Krakoa. X-Force also counted with special operations sanctioned to employ lethal force led by Wolverine and formed by agents Domino and Kid Omega. The Quiet Council of Krakoa approved X-Force's activation as a team with special jurisdiction. Based at the Pointe, it was provided with weaponry developed by the inventor Forge. X-Force became operational by repelling XENO heists against several mutant companies. In a bloody confrontation, X-Force was aided by Forge and Gateway against XENO agents who attempted to steal Krakoan floral technology. Later on, Sage assisted Domino and her ally Colossus in eliminating more genetically engineered soldiers created by XENO from her genome. During this mission, Domino was killed in action and her memories from her time in XENO's captivity were purposely erased following her resurrection.; The Krakoan intelligence identified that potentially anti-mutant plant-based technology was developed in the country Terra Verde. Hadwin Cocom weaponized it to stage a coup d'etat against his father, the president. X-Force prevented Cocom from accomplishing his plans, and Beast chose to neutralize his telefloronic technology. The intervention, however, caused the botanical monstrosity to run wild. X-Force field agents returned to Terra Verde only to find it totally succumbed to telefloronics, which were linked to a local deity. Jean Grey confronted Beast about his reckless actions against a sovereign human nation. She was joined by Sage and Black Tom in Terra Verde and, together, they were able to purge the botanical infection, but as a result several innocents perished. After the tragedy, Jean Grey chose to quit X-Force.; The corpses of the XENO agents in Krakoa spawned off infiltrated soldiers, engineered as a form of "nesting doll," who once again targeted Xavier. They failed, but were able to secure Kid Omega as well as remnants of a Cerebro unit, the Cerebro Sword, and deliver them the to XENO's associate and Colossus' brother, Mikhail Rasputin. Beast linked XENO's operations to Colossus and to the erratic Krakoan citizen Omega Red. Both were arrested and interrogated. Colossus was cleaned of any connections to XENO, but Omega Red was regarded as an asset who could be used as a double agent through the use of a Carbonadium Synthesizer built by Forge. In fact, Colossus' had been in fact compromised by Mikhail Rasputin's prisoner, the mysterious Chronicler, and, as an unaware mole, had been undermining X-Force's operations, which included tampering with Domino's memories.; Around this period, a tumorous parasitic infection in Krakoa corrupted nearby sailors, causing X-Force to intervene as a matter of security. Under the sea, X-Force had Namor's help in destroying the monstrous parasite. Another parallel issue was XENO's weaponized use of Kid Omega's telepathic corpses. The psychic army haunted X-Force in Krakoa until their deactivation, which was achieved through the efforts of Kid Omega in coalition with X-Force, Jean Grey, and Phoebe.; During the first Krakoan Hellfire Gala, which had human guests invited for diplomatic reasons, X-Force was in charge of the party's security. Beast, however, had manipulated Terra Verdeans as puppets by employing the telefloronic technology for Krakoa's interests. His colonial interference was revealed when the telefloronics acted erratically in ambassadors he had attend the Gala. The Gala's idealizer and Quiet Council member Emma Frost requested X-Force to decommission the use of telefloronics. Sage wished to comply, but Beast refused to, leading tensions to rise. Simultaneously, Deadpool crashed the party, triggering a response from X-Force. However, he ultimately helped them combat the erratic telefloronic creatures in the party.; Telefloronic-related infections kept causing incidents around the world, which Sage concluded to be sabotaging against commercial relations involving Xavier and Krakoa. While countering them, X-Force crossed paths with the creature known as Man-Slaughter. In their mission, they learned XENO had access to plant-based technology created by Doctor Bloodroot from Weapon Plus. Bloodroot seized control of a faction of the Order of X he had invade Krakoa. Together, X-Force and Man-Slaughter defeated the villain and incapacitated the Order of X's incursion.; ===Fear the Beast===; X-Force also became the primary mutant unit combatting the anti-Krakoan organization Orchis. The field team performed incursions into the Orchis Forge multiple times, in an attempt to dismantle their operations and destroy the deadly sentinel Nimrod. All of their incessant missions failed, however. As a result, Orchis was able to specifically plan for X-Force. During one of their missions, X-Force intercepted a successful Orchis attempt to steal Krakoan shipments from the Hellfire Trading Company. It was actually a trap Sage had been able to identify and alert Frost about, contrary to Beast's plans. Frost confronted Beast about him using X-Force to test the limits of his influence in Krakoa. X-Force was ultimately able to escape, but it was made obvious that Beast played them like puppets for his interests.; As the war between Krakoa and XENO escalated, Beast was infected by a microscopic XENO subject. With Black Tom's help and at the cost of his own eye, he was apparently cleaned. XENO then kidnapped mutant children from Krakoa, having their access facilitated by Wolverine being romantically involved with the spy named Pike. X-Force searched for the missing victims underwater around Krakoa, being successful in getting only two of the three kidnapped babies from their rescue mission.; Seeking for revenge against the aggressions that had been inflicted upon him by X-Force, Omega Red joined Mikhail Rasputin and had his mind travel to the past in an attempt to destroy Xavier. Wolverine was sent to hunt him with Cerebro technology. Omega Red was ultimately stopped and restrained. Beast advocated for his execution to the Quiet Council, but Sage argued that X-Force was responsible for his behavior and requested to have Omega Red rehabilitated as an agent of X-Force. Another consequence of this mission was that the Cerebro unit Wolverine had used to time travel gained sentience and started to devour the brains and consume the powers of Krakoans as Cerebrax. X-Force battled the near omnipotent creature. After consuming Black Tom, it communed with Krakoa. Kid Omega attacked it and was able to terminate it, but in the process his Cerebro back-up data was purged, leading to a permanent death he could not be resurrected from.; After teaming up with Wolverine to confront a resentful and insane Danger, Deadpool was invited to become an agent of X-Force. Following the public revelation that mutants could be resurrected, their relationship with humans changed. In one of their missions, X-Force rescued X-Corp's CEO Archangel from an angry anti-mutant mob as well as intercepted a mutant trafficking operation, during which Deadpool was abandoned in the field by Omega Red. His remains were found by Kraven the Hunter, who decided to challenge the immortal mutants. During Krakoa's war against the Eternals, Kraven went to Krakoa accompanied by a captive Deadpool, where he started targeting resurrected mutants in Arbor Magna. He eventually captured Beast in the Pointe and forced him to design a trap in the virtual reality of the Shadow Room for Wolverine, the best possible mutant opponent. Meanwhile, Deadpool was restored back to health by Black Tom and fought Omega Red in retaliation for his actions. Sage stopped their fight and gathered them to the Pointe, where X-Force defeated Kraven and saved Beast and Wolverine from his macabre plan.; X-Force continued eliminating threats to Krakoa related to XENO, but Wolverine started to question Beast's morals, including his preemptive strikes on potential enemies. In order to ensure Wolverine's compliance, Beast machinated a trap. When Wolverine and his comrade Jeff Bannister from C.I.A.'s X-Desk investigated the Legacy House, a criminal operation that auctioned mutant items, Beast assassinated Wolverine and captured Bannister. Resurrected as a brainless killing machine, Wolverine served as Beast's unquestionable weapon. Having total control over X-Force, Beast expanded his influence, by exposing the Pointe and having them operate in the open as agents of Krakoa. Sage questioned Wolverine's activities, but Beast refused to acknowledge his involvement. Wolverine's mind gradually repaired itself, which allowed him to escape Beast's clutches and hide within Krakoa.; Descending into madness, Beast used his privileges as the director of X-Force to build a Shadow Prison in outer space, where he performed horrible botanical experiments on inwards ranging from humans, to aliens. to mutants both from Krakoa and Arakko, having Maverick abduct the specimens for him. After Maverick got into conflict with the Arakkii Blackmore and Solem, X-Force acquired information about their superior's crimes and performed an investigation. Although Beast's trust and credibility eroded within X-Force, he led a final strike against XENO. He provided the Legacy House with a mutant husk to be abducted by XENO's leader, the Man with the Peacock Tattoo. The stolen husk was weaponized into a monster by XENO through the powers of the telepath Max, the mutant child kidnapped from Krakoa. As X-Force worked to restore Domino's lost memories from her time in XENO, she recollected they were based on Genosha. X-Force battled the Omnimutant, a monstrous creature who amalgamated their powersets. Beast took advantage of the conflict to develop a way to destroy XENO's technology and finish their agents for good. In the end, the Man with the Peacock Tattoo fell to Max and other experimented subjects he had tortured. XENO's leader was defeated, and X-Force returned to deal with their immoral leader.; Being approached by Bannister's daughter, Maddie, Sage was able to locate the debilitated Wolverine. Together, X-Force planned to document Beast's crimes and expose him to the Quiet Council of Krakoa. They tracked Jeff Bannister and learned that Beast had orchestrated the vile attack against Wolverine and infected Maddie with aggressive telefloronics. Beast also attempted to murder Bannister, but Wolverine was able to execute him instead. Having planned for his own demise, Beast triggered a self-resurrection in the Pointe, which he turned into a gargantuan walking base. He then announced to X-Force they were dismissed, in order to be replaced by his Weapons of X, a group formed by clones of himself and of Wolverine. Meanwhile, Wolverine learned that Beast had erased his memory files from the Cerebro database. Wolverine, who resigned from X-Force, brought the case to the Quiet Council. They recognized Beast's autonomy and chose not to hunt him down. Sage was appointed as the new director of X-Force, and Colossus, a member of the Quiet Council, joined the organization to oversee their operations. As her first decision, Sage established a new headquarters for X-Force and recruited the all-new Wolverine for the team. Having taken control over Beast's Shadow Prison, Blackmore redirected his rage to Krakoa.; Before X-Force could take action, an ancient version of Quentin Quire came from the future to ask for X-Force's help in opposing many versions of Beast. Having travelled to the dystopic future, X-Force faced a society where Beast ruled mutantkind through cultural dominance. One of Beast's deviant clones captured Omega Red only to meet his demise after devouring him. X-Force was able to rejoin Omega Red and move to their next target in the timeline. Many thousands of years later, X-Force destroyed a version of Beast who had merged himself with the Krakoan environment to exert his control. In their final stop, X-Force confronted a version of Beast who had transformed himself into a Nimrod Sentinel to ensure his totalitarian surveillance. During the fight, Beast revealed Quire was infected by Cerebrax. The liberation of Cerebrax led to Beast's deactivation. Being successful, X-Force returned to present-day Krakoa. In the present, Beast still acted for Krakoa independently, destroying Maverick's mercenary team for smuggling Krakoan goods. Wolverine crossed paths with Maverick and they joined forces to stop Beast and his Weapons of X. Additionally, Bannister and the X-Desk also tracked Beast down, which ended up with Bannister being captured by Beast. Wolverine was approached by Beast, who wished to recollect some of his missing clones in exchange for Bannister's freedom. X-Force was contacted by Wolverine to secretly intervene. While Wolverine and Maverick distracted Beast to retrieve Bannister, X-Force infiltrated the Pointe. Wolverine demanded Beast to surrender, which escalated in a fight that obliterated the Pointe and most of Beast's clones and resources. Wielding the Cerebro Sword, Beast confronted X-Force and, though severely hurt by Deadpool, managed to escape. In the aftermath, Wolverine decided to leave Krakoa permanently.; ===The Chronicles of Colossus===; As had occurred in previous years, X-Force was tasked to work surveillance for the Hellfire Gala. In response to Beast's activities, they did not attend the event in person, keeping their watch from a distance. This inability to join the party prompted Deadpool to leave X-Force. In fact, Colossus secretly sabotaged their headquarters to serve Mikhail Rasputin's purposes. Meanwhile, Orchis executed a destructive ploy to finish Krakoa by assassinating the X-Men at the Gala, deactivating the teleporting Gateways, and forcing Xavier to scatter the Krakoan population. In this unpredicted situation, Colossus did not allow X-Force to act and led them to his brother's lair in an ambush. Having been suspicious of Colossus, Domino was able to evade the trap, keeping herself, Sage and Black Tom free. The group struggled in a world where mutants were hostilized by Orchis. Their main goal was to free the captive X-Force members from Mikhail Rasputin.; With most of X-Force in his custody, Mikhail Rasputin focused his attention on manipulating Orchis. He ordered the Chronicler to shift his influence from Colossus to Orchis' agent Jun Wei. This course of action caused Colossus to be free from the mind control. The Chronicler also took the opportunity to direct Wei against Mikhail Rasputin and escape his clutches. With Mikhail Rasputin down, his powers were destabilized and X-Force was able to break free as well. Meanwhile, by realizing that Mikhail Rasputin's abilities mirrored mystic powers, Sage contacted Doctor Strange in his Sanctum Sanctorum for help. With his assistance, she and Domino were able to teleport themselves to X-Force's location, joining their final battle against Rasputin's forces. Deadpool ultimately rejoined X-Force to strengthen their ranks during the battle. Seeing no other option, Colossus made the difficult decision of executing Mikhail Rasputin to end his mad crusade. Rescued by Doctor Strange back from Rasputin's lair, the team returned to decide Colossus' fate.; ===Target: Beast===; With Krakoa having fallen and most of the world's mutant population being dead or missing, X-Force relocated to the Arctic Circle, where they started using a new base called the Greenhouse, inviting surviving mutants to shelter with them. Some of these mutants included Phoebe Cuckoo, Wolverine's son Fang, and Alpha Flight veterans Aurora and Northstar. However, as well as facing the threat of Orchis, X-Force were also being stalked by Beast Prime, who attacked the Greenhouse and incapacitated Omega Red to steal a Krakoan Battlesuit which he needed to orchestrate his final plan: the theft of a black hole cannon, which he would use to wipe out the mutant planet of Arakko in hopes of protecting Earth's mutants and discouraging Orchis. With limited strategies to stop Beast Prime, Sage used her ace in the hole: the last Beast Clone from the Weapons of X. Uploading the clone with a memory backup dating back to Beast's tenure as a member of the Defenders, this new Beast was appalled by the monstrous actions of his future self, escaping the Greenhouse and rejoining his old best friend Wonder Man. Working together, Beast, Wonder Man, and X-Force were able to defeat Beast Prime, who seemingly perished in an explosion when the black hole cannon's nuclear power supply was damaged.; ===Sabretooth War===; Months prior to the Hellfire Gala, the mutant supervillain and serial killer Sabretooth escaped Krakoa's Pit of Exile, recruiting versions of himself from across the multiverse to wage war on Krakoa. But, by the time he made it back, the island was abandoned and surrounded by Sentinels. He thus decided to turn his sights onto his old nemesis, Wolverine.; Using a version of himself with shapeshifting abilities, he ambushed Kid Omega, killing him but keeping his head alive to use as a weapon. He then led his forces to the Greenhouse, using Kid Omega's telepathy to incapacitate Sage and Black Tom and having his troops slaughter dozens of mutants (including Akihiro). They would also abduct Laura Kinney. Wolverine would chase Creed back to Krakoa, but would also end up incapacitated by Kid Omega's powers.

+===The Analog===; Endowed with the mutant power of envisioning technology to solve problems, the inventor Forge directed his efforts into fixing the world. The change of perspective made him create the Analog, a mechanism that correlated variables in a predictive fashion, providing information about upcoming threats. One of the first conclusions Forge reached from his initiative was the need for recruiting the computer-brained and data analyst Sage. Additionally, he also contacted the psychics Betsy Braddock and Rachel Summers, the multiversal warriors respectively known as Captain Britain and Askani. While the former was reluctant to join Forge's cause, the latter proved to be excited, baptizing their fledgling team X-Force after the previous mutant groups that, in a comparable way, acted proactively. Another member of the group was the mysterious Tank, a walking powerhouse whose identity remained secret.; After being assembled, X-Force marched to Japan, where the young mutant with electricity abilities Surge faced problems. Upon arrival, X-Force noticed a monstrosity terrorized innocents. The creature was a result of experiments performed by the Fujikawa Research Group, a subsidiary of Mister Sinister's corporation. The dire monster was eliminated thanks to Forge deploying the mercenary Deadpool as an unpredicted asset. After abandoning Deadpool, X-Force went to their next destination.; The team disbanded after the fractures were solved with each of the members agreeing to end the team due to all Forge had put them through.

+Notes: The name "X-Men" was trademarked by Charles Xavier, and inherited by Kitty Pryde upon Charles' death.; It should be noted that bigotry toward Mutants in the world of the X-Men has long been seen as a metaphor for all kinds of prejudice towards others occurring in the real world. Professor Xavier has been equated to peaceful civil rights activists like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Conversely, Magneto could be compared to more violent activists like Malcolm X. Recently, Storm has been forming her own perspective that acts as a middle ground and is analogous to opinions of moderate progressive activists.; According to the Angel, the founding X-Men took an oath to help anyone who was in trouble. He invoked the oath to convince his teammates to help out a mysterious mutant who was under attack by an angry mob. The Angel was unaware that the attack victim was the Toad in disguise.
+Trivia: X-Men co-creator Stan Lee originally intended for the team to be called "The Mutants." Publisher Martin Goodman shot down the idea, allegedly arguing readers wouldn't know what a mutant was.; The X-Men celebrated their 1st anniversary since classes began with a birthday cake.; The X in the X-Men name might have deviated from the Three X-es.
+History:
+This is an abridged version of The X-Men's history. For a complete history see The X-Men's Expanded History; ===A Dream is Born===; The outcome of a leap in natural evolution, mutants, or Homo superior, are born with superhuman abilities that usually emerge at puberty. Unfortunately, they are perceived as a menace, being hated and feared by the rest of humanity. Amidst this tension, Professor Charles Xavier, secretly a mutant telepath, spent most of his early adult years studying mutation at Oxford University and held a unique vision for mutants and humans to coexist peacefully. During his time at Oxford, Xavier met the brilliant geneticist Moira. She revealed herself as a mutant with the ability to reincarnate in the past and reset her own timeline upon death. Moira's multiple lives had revealed a disturbing pattern: mutantkind always perished. The revelation formed a strong bond between Xavier and Moira, who sought for a definitive way to avert mutantkind's devastation.; Over the years, Xavier realized that not all mutants shared his dream of peaceful harmony. During his travels, he encountered a mutant named Magnus in Israel, who had a radically different perspective, firmly believing that a species war between mutants and humans was unavoidable and that mutants had to assert their dominance as supreme rulers of Earth. This ideological clash forged a profound feud between Xavier and Magnus. In Egypt, Xavier faced the unscrupulous mutant telepath known as the Shadow King. This harrowing encounter reinforced Xavier's determination to safeguard the world from the threat of malevolent mutants. His mission became to foster peaceful coexistence between mutants and humans by protecting both sides from the destructive forces that could escalate if left unchecked.; Counting with Moira's support, Xavier decided to establish a school to secretly prepare mutants to serve and protect a world that hated and feared their kind: the X-Men. He reformed his father's estate into the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Within his "X-Mansion," Xavier developed crucial facilities for his mission, such as the Danger Room, a state-of-the-art training facility, and Cerebro, a mutant-detection device for detecting and locating mutants across the globe. After years of preparation, Xavier decided to approach the young mutants he had been keeping track of as anti-mutant hysteria hit its peak. Reports about a young mutant accidentally putting lives at risk urged him to to contact FBI agent Fred Duncan, tasked with investigating mutant-related incidents. Through diplomacy, Xavier convinced Duncan to permit him to enroll and train young mutants at his school to stand against the mutants threatening humanity.; In the following days, Professor X recruited his X-Men. Scott Summers, the young mutant from the news reports, was rescued from the clutches of evil Jack Winters and became the first of the X-Men, codenamed Cyclops. Shortly after, Cyclops and Professor X saved young Bobby Drake, a mutant commanding extreme cold, from an angry mob; Drake joined the group as Iceman. The winged Warren Worthington III, who had already embarked on a solo super hero career as the high-flying Angel, was convinced to join the X-Men after a brief battle. Next on the list was the dexterous and intelligent Hank McCoy, who was rescued from a would-be conqueror, the Conquistador, and joined Xavier under the codename Beast. Rounding out the group, Xavier had Jean Grey join them as Marvel Girl, who had been mentored by Xavier since the traumatic manifestation of her psychic abilities as a child.; ===First Class===; After a long preparation, the first mission of the recently formed uncanny X-Men brought them into direct conflict with Xavier's old friend, Magnus, now rebranded as Magneto, the self-proclaimed "Master of Magnetism." The battle occurred at Cape Citadel, in a military base Magneto had taken control of, marking the beginning of a brutal war between the two old friends. In the years to come, Magneto would become the X-Men's most frequent and formidable adversary. The villain was driven off by the young mutants, who were successful in liberating the base from his clutches. Despite the X-Men's heroic actions, their reputation suffered due to growing anti-mutant sentiment. The X-Men operated as a discreet organization, concealing their true identities from the public.; In their subsequent mission, with assistance from Duncan, the X-Men protected Washington, D.C., against the mutant teleporting thief known as the Vanisher. During their journey, they also discovered that not all mutants were interested in joining their mission when the immovable Blob rejected an invitation into their ranks. Simultaneously, the X-Men found themselves entangled with the broader superhero community: clashing with Iron Man, aiding the Sentry against the General, and having a conflict with the Fantastic Four when Professor X fell under the control of the Puppet Master. These and other encounters marked the beginning of the X-Men's many adventures as they navigated the superhero world.; Magneto resurfaced to plague the X-Men, forming his own group called the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. The terrorist team consisted of Quicksilver, the Scarlet Witch, the Toad, and Mastermind. They first confronted the X-Men after conquering the nation of Santo Marco, which Magneto attempted to colonize, but met defeat. Subsequently, the Brotherhood escalated the animosity between the two groups of mutants with a full-on attempt to capture the X-Men, with no success. This was followed by several failed attempts by the Brotherhood to recruit other powerful individuals to their cause, including Namor, the Sub-Mariner, the Blob, and the thunder god Thor. Ultimately, the X-Men witnessed the end of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants during an encounter with the powerful alien being known as the Stranger, who abducted Magneto and the Toad for study and turned Mastermind into stone, neutralizing their threat.; After their graduation, the X-Men were torn apart by the rise of alarming and fanatical anti-mutant hysteria. As the group faced these struggles, a future version of Beast happened upon the young students to transport them to the future in hopes of inspiring the decadent mutant society. The time-displaced X-Men spent a long period of time in the future, eventually returning with their memories of this experience blocked. Upon their return, they resumed their adventures, such as fighting Unus the Untouchable. Afterwards, Professor X left Cyclops in charge of the school to thwart the alien Lucifer from conquering the world, a plot foiled thanks to the assistance of the X-Men and the Avengers, sparking the long-standing association and rivalry between the two superhero teams. Amidst these adventures, the X-Men also found a valuable ally in Ka-Zar at the South Pole, where they investigated the hidden tropical paradise called the Savage Land. Furthermore, a dangerous threat emerged in the form of Professor X's stepbrother, Cain Marko, who wielded mystical powers as the unstoppable Juggernaut, but was defeated by the X-Men with the aid of the Human Torch.; The rise of hatred against mutants prompted scientist Bolivar Trask to engineer the Sentinels – massive mutant-hunting robots with the purpose of apprehending and incapacitating mutants. Unexpectedly, the robots revolted against their own creator, seizing both Trask and Professor X to subject them to their robotic overlord, the sinister Master Mold, who planned to enslave the entire human race. The X-Men saved Xavier and devised a strategy to dismantle the menace of the Sentinels. The encounter culminated in Trask's demise, but his legacy would haunt mutantkind since his deadly machines became the greatest threat mutantkind faced in the years to come.; ===Factor Three Conspiracy===; Barely recovered from their war against the Sentinels, the X-Men were once again targeted by Magneto, who, despite his attempts, was defeated and recaptured by the Stranger. In the midst of these challenges, Lucifer resurfaced to execute his master's alien invasion. He commanded the Blob and Unus to pose as X-Men to tarnish the team's reputation as well as distract them. Although the Blob and Unus escaped, the X-Men persevered and successfully foiled Lucifer's wicked scheme. Other non-mutant threats were also addressed by the X-Men, such as combating Count Nefaria's attempt to ransom Washington, D.C., battling the peculiar Locust, preventing El Tigre from taking over the world with the power of the Mayan God, Kukulcan, and stopping the Warlock's world domination plot. During this period, Jean Grey was compelled by her parents to leave Xavier's for Metro College, but remained part of the group, albeit with less regularity. After the X-Men halted Cobalt Man's rampage at Stark Industries, the young mutants ended up being part of a conflict between the Mole Man and Tyrannus.; Having crossed paths with the troubled Mimic, a bitter young man who had the ability to replicate other superhumans' powers, the X-Men had their secret identities uncovered. A battle ensued, concluded with Mimic stripped of his powers and with no memory of the X-Men's true identities. Later, fearing an imminent threat, Professor X pressed the group to find new recruits. Despite unsuccessful attempts to recruit Quicksilver, the Scarlet Witch, and Spider-Man, they managed to ironically enlist the Mimic, who had just regained his memories and powers following a lab explosion at Metro College. He joined the X-Men despite the Puppet Master having used him as his pawn to destroy the group. His tenure was brief though, since he lost his powers after facing the Super-Adaptoid.; The threat Professor X feared was Factor Three, an organization that dispatched Ogre and the enslaved Banshee to kidnap him. Successfully freeing Banshee from Factor Three's control, the X-Men easily defeated Ogre. Factor Three struck again when Professor X sought to free his stepbrother from the powers of the Juggernaut. The resulting experiment of both science and sorcery revived Juggernaut, and Xavier nearly lost his life. Factor Three took the opportunity to mentally approach the Juggernaut to recruit him for their cause. The X-Men ultimately stopped the Juggernaut with the aid of Doctor Strange, who banished him to the Crimson Cosmos. Nonetheless, during the chaos, Factor Three managed to vanish with Professor X hostage.; Banshee located Factor Three's European headquarters, but had his contact to the X-Men intercepted, leading the mutants to attack Spider-Man, who they had mistaken for a member of Factor Three. Not able to finance the airfare to Europe, the X-Men resorted to a wealthy philanthropist who needed help in stopping his son's rampage as the armored Mekano. In Europe and accused of betraying mutantkind, the X-Men were captured by Factor Three, whose membership included the Vanisher, the Blob, Unus, Mastermind, the Changeling and the mysterious Mutant Master. Their plan involved triggering a nuclear World War III by attacking both the United States and the Soviet Union, prompting the X-Men to split into two groups to ruin both plots. Face-to-face with the Mutant Master at his headquarters in the United States, the X-Men freed Professor with the assistance of the Changeling. It was revealed that the Mutant Master was one of the Siris, an alien race. Surprisingly, the X-Men and Factor Three joined forces to thwart the Mutant Master, parting peacefully though vowing to meet again as enemies. Upon returning to the X-Mansion, the X-Men were rewarded with new individual costumes designed by Jean Grey.; ===Death of Professor X===; Having learned of an impending invasion by the Z'nox alien race, Professor X made the hard decision to seclude himself to prepare a counterattack. A terminally ill Changeling, in need of a cause and aware of his limited time left, agreed to pose as Professor X, while the real one covertly expected for the invasion. Only Jean Grey was privy to this secret plan, as her mentor unlocked her telepathic powers, enabling her to understand and support the ruse while Changeling assumed his identity. As the subterranean Grotesk, a being mutated by the underground nuclear testing that had decimated his people, threatened the Earth, Changeling, posing as Professor X, sacrificed his life to stop the threat. This led the X-Men to believe their mentor was gone.; After the funeral, the X-Men were tragically imprisoned by Magneto, who had reassembled the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Seeking vengeance against the Avengers as well, Magneto freed Angel, knowing he would serve as a bait to lure Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Although Magneto pitted the X-Men and the Avengers against each other, the two groups succeeded in defeating him, who in turn seemingly perished in an explosion. At the X-Mansion, when the X-Men mourned Professor X, they received a visit from Agent Duncan, who shared Xavier's final will, in which he bequeathed his possessions and legacy to his beloved students. Juggernaut interrupted the moment, as he had temporarily returned to Earth, though he was soon shunted off to the Crimson Cosmos once more after losing a battle to the X-Men. To add to their woes, Duncan informed the X-Men they were ordered by the government to disband for their own safety, leaving them torn between the call of duty and their desire to carry on Xavier's dream of coexistence between mutants and humans.; The split proved to be short-lived, however. After Beast and Iceman battled the Warlock, rebranded as the Maha Yogi, and Cyclops and Marvel Girl confronted the robot Computo, the group was drawn back together after Cerebro detected a large concentration of mutants in the San Francisco area. During their investigation, they met a mutant named Lorna Dane, learning that Mesmero, a mutant hypnotist, was gathering an army of mutants under the banner of Magneto to enslave humanity. Believing Dane to be the daughter of Magneto, Mesmero took her and Iceman to his Mutant City, located outside of San Francisco, where her latent mutant magnetic powers were activated. The X-Men came to their rescue, but Dane refused to abandon her alleged father, who was actually an android impostor. The X-Men returned to destroy the Mutant City, having Cyclops posing as a villain named Erik the Red to infiltrate their militia. In the ensuing battle, Iceman provided Dane with evidence that she was not Magneto's daughter. She helped the X-Men defeat Mesmero, leading to the Mutant City's detonation. Afterwards, Lorna Dane chose to stand with the X-Men.; An accident during a test of one of the Xavier's inventions accidentally teleported Blastaar from the Negative Zone to Earth, where he was opposed by the X-Men and seemingly killed when the machine to which he was connected malfunctioned. Afterwards, Cyclops reconnected with his younger brother, Alex, who had recently graduated from university. In a bizarre event, Alex was captured by the eccentric Living Pharaoh and tracked by the X-Men to Egypt. Revealed to be a mutant who could emit plasma energy, Alex had his powers harnessed to transform the Pharaoh into the Living Monolith. Although the link was severed and the villain defeated, Alex struggled to control his newly unleashed chaotic powers. Before the X-Men could help him, he got captured by Sentinels, rebuilt by Larry Trask with the help of Judge Robert Chalmers. Trask sought revenge against mutants, and the X-Men in particular, for the death of his father. Baptizing Alex as Havok, Trask coerced the confused mutant into aiding him in capturing mutants. Havok ultimately joined the X-Men in defeating the Sentinels to liberate the captives and exposing Trask's nature as a mutant. In the end, Cyclops managed to convince the Sentinels to destroy the source of mutations, causing the robots to self-destruct in a misguided mission to obliterate the sun.; The X-Men entrusted a heavily injured Havok to the care of Dr. Karl Lykos, who had a dark secret; he relied on absorbing the life force of others to survive. Unfortunately, after he absorbed the energies of mutants, Lykos underwent a monstrous metamorphosis, becoming the fearsome pterodactyl-like creature Sauron. He fled to Tierra del Fuego and reverted back to Lykos. He was followed by the X-Men, who were unable to stop him from committing suicide to avoid draining and harming his lover, Tanya. From there, the X-Men's journey had them venture into the Savage Land, where they reunited with Ka-Zar against the Savage Land Mutates. Parallel to this, a lost Angel was duped into joining the Mutates by their leader, the Creator, who was in fact Magneto. Uncovering the truth, the X-Men battled Magneto, who had the mesmerizing Lorelei brainwash the male X-Men. Immune to her influence, Jean Grey rebelled against the master of magnetism and led to his defeat, which caused his apparent demise and the destruction of his citadel.; Returning to the United States, the X-Men went to Washington, D.C., to stop the aggressive Sunfire, a fiery mutant from Japan, from threatening an crucial conference between American and Japanese officials that involved his family. Back home, a shocking revelation awaited the X-Men: Professor X, presumed dead, miraculously appeared alive and well. He informed them about the imminent threat of a Z'nox invasion. To counter the extraterrestrial menace, Professor X harnessed the combined powers of Cyclops and Havok, linking every mind on Earth to repel the invasion and safeguard the planet. The immense strain of the mental link left Professor X teetering on the edge of death. In a desperate bid to save their mentor, the X-Men embarked on a mission to find the Hulk, Dr. Bruce Banner's alter ego, who held the key knowledge about gamma radiation to cure Xavier.; ===Hidden Years===; Feeling betrayed by Xavier's secrets, Iceman decided to leave the team. Professor X then sent the X-Men back to the Savage Land to recover the body of Magneto after learning about what had transpired in his absence. The X-Men got involved in preventing the Nhu'Ghari race from enslaving other Savage Land natives, while Jean Grey discovered Magneto had survived. Eventually, the X-Men captured Magneto, but he escaped during a storm, leaving Angel and his Nhu'Ghari ally, Avia, lost at sea. Meanwhile, Cyclops, Jean Grey, and the Beast were whisked away to Kenya, where they met the young mutant Ororo, who could control the weather, and helped her defeat the villain Deluge. Upon their return home, they were met by the Fantastic Four, who collaborated with Professor X to fend off the Z'nox permanently. Though the X-Men had prevented an invasion on Earth, the Z'nox redirected their invasion fleet to another world. The heroes went to space and shunted the Z'nox home-world into the Negative Zone, where it could not harm other civilizations.; Professor X and Beast temporarily left the X-Mansion to monitor a newly detected young mutant girl named Ashley Martin, who had control over a damaged Sentinels. Meanwhile, Cyclops and Jean Grey searched for Angel, with the help of his girlfriend Candy Southern. Captured by a man named Stefan Krueger, Angel and the X-Men were trafficked to the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, but overpowered the villains. On the Savage Land, Havok, Lorna Dane, and an amnesiac Iceman got embroiled in a battle between Sauron and Magneto, which ended with Magneto's defeat and Iceman regaining his memories. While Xavier chose to stay with the Martins to tend to Ashley, the rest of the X-Men returned to the X-Mansion, where Candy warned Angel that his uncle, the villain known as Dazzler, had plans to marry his widowed mother. The X-Men intervened, but could not prevent Angel's mother from dying due to the poison administered by Dazzler.; Finding Havok and Lorna Dane gone in a mission to investigate mutant presence in the Himalayas, the X-Men went after them and discovered that Cerebro's initial signal had picked up the hidden realm of the Inhumans. Returning home, they found Avia poisoned by Kraven the Hunter, who challenged one of the X-Men to beat him in combat for the cure. Beast accepted, winning the duel and securing the antidote. Dane vanished soon after, being put under the mental control of Tad Carter, a member of the Promise, mutants who intended to shape society. Following a brief confrontation, some of the X-Men were sent to their doom, ending up unconscious in the realm of the Mole Man. Meanwhile, Magneto and the Sub-Mariner carried on an attack on Earth, which was being opposed by the Fantastic Four. Ultimately, the X-Men escaped from the Mole Man's clutches, while Havok managed to free Dane from the Promise, who parted company when their leader Tobias Messenger was secretly killed by one of their own. After these events, Professor X returned to his X-Men at the school.; Beast left the X-Men for a position at the Brand Corporation where he further mutated while battling the Secret Empire. In an effort to get revenge against the Avengers, Magneto invaded the X-Men's home, incapacitating them to collect power. This made the X-Men vulnerable to the Secret Empire, who targeted them and other mutants to serve as a valuable source of power. Professor X had his remaining X-Men join forces with Captain America and the Falcon to defeat the Secret Empire and free the other captured mutants.; ===Deadly Genesis===; Cerebro registered a large mutant energy signature on the island Krakoa, in the remote Pacific Ocean. The X-Men were dispatched by Professor X to investigate, but learned to their dismay that the entire island was one single mutant environment, which restrained them in order to feed on their life-force. To save his students, Professor X desperately gathered a group of mutants previously mentored by Moira to form a new team of X-Men, including Petra, Sway, Darwin, and Kid Vulcan, the latter being Cyclops' long-lost youngest brother. The inexperienced group ventured into Krakoa only to be rapidly overwhelmed by the island: Petra and Sway were murdered instantly while Darwin and Kid Vulcan, unbeknownst to everyone, survived by forcing themselves into a dormant state. Their sacrifice allowed Cyclops to break free and return to Professor X in shock over the ordeal. Having the memories of Moira's ill-fated group telepathically erased from his mind by Xavier, Cyclops believed he had escaped on his own.; Determined to rescue his captured X-Men, Professor X assembled an all-new, all-different roster of mutants from all corners of the world to face Krakoa. The diverse group included Nightcrawler, a demon-looking teleporter from Germany; Wolverine, a ferocious berserker and federal agent from Canada; Banshee, the Irish former associate of Factor Three; Storm, the rebaptized windrider Ororo from the Serengeti; Sunfire, the son of the atom from Japan; Colossus, a metallic strongman from Russia; and Thunderbird, a stubborn Apache. Through their combined strength and cooperation, both the original X-Men and the newly recruited members overpowered the deadly island entity by propelling it into Earth's orbit, effectively ending its threat.; The newly recruited X-Men struggled to bridge sociocultural gaps with the original first class upon returning to Xavier's School. Cyclops had to adapt to the new dynamics of once again receiving orders from Professor X and commanding a group of older and more experienced X-Men who were not used to teamwork. During one of the new team's early missions, they responded to an Avengers call to face Count Nefaria and his Ani-Men, who had seized control of the nuclear weaponry in the Valhalla Base. Though Nefaria was defeated, Thunderbird was tragically killed in action. As the X-Men coped with his loss, Moira was invited to move to the X-Mansion to assist Xavier in his work. Soon, she proved her worth as a combatant when helping the X-Men oppose an invasion by the demonic N'Garai.; ===All-New, All-Different X-Men===; In an attempt to eliminate Professor X, the Shi'ar mercenary Erik the Red brainwashed Havok and Lorna Dane, rebranded as Polaris, into attacking the X-Men. His scheme failed, forcing a retreat. Simultaneously, mutant-hater Stephen Lang reactivated the deadly Sentinels, imprisoning some of the X-Men on a space station. The other X-Men were rallied to rescue their allies with pilot Peter Corbeau's assistance. Upon reentry to Earth's orbit after destroying Lang's operations, Jean Grey pushed her powers to the limit to save the X-Men, holding their spacecraft together and shielding her teammates from intense radiation. Believed dead upon their crash landing in New York's Jamaica Bay, Jean Grey emerged from the depths of the ocean before the X-Men as Phoenix, reborn with vast cosmic powers. As Phoenix recovered, the X-Men journeyed to Banshee's inherited Cassidy Keep, in Ireland, where they combated his nefarious cousin, Black Tom Cassidy, who had allied himself with the Juggernaut.; Relentlessly trying to attack Professor X, Erik the Red assisted Magneto in ambushing the X-Men, who were forced to escape following Magneto's triumph. Redirecting their attention to Erik the Red, the X-Men clasched with his lackey, the powerful Firelord. During the fight, it was revealed that Erik the Red had been assigned by the mad Shi'ar Emperor D'ken to hunt down and capture his dissident sister Lilandra as she had sought help with Professor X. Phoenix defeated Firelord and sent the X-Men to space to save Lilandra and aid her in stopping her brother from using the power of the M'kraan Crystal for universal domination. Emperor D'ken controlled the powerful Imperial Guard and unleashed their force to annihilate the X-Men. Fortunately, the X-Men allied themselves with the Starjammers, a revolutionary crew of space-faring pirates, led by Cyclops' father, Corsair. The crisis escalated with reality hung in the balance, and Phoenix harnessed her stupendous powers to restore the damaged M'kraan Crystal. D'ken was driven insane and was dethroned. In the aftermath of their victory, the X-Men returned to Earth accompanied by Lilandra, who had been temporarily exiled from her home.; Facing challenges at their school, the X-Men were targeted by Weapon Alpha, a Canadian military superhero sent to retrieve Wolverine for Department H. However, Weapon Alpha was heavily outnumbered by the X-Men and had no choice but to retreat. Then, the mercenary Warhawk trapped the X-Men in their Danger Room, but the group persevered and defeated the villain for hire. Next, the X-Men were brainwashed by Mesmero into becoming circus performers. Beast assessed the situation to recover his friends. As they broke free from the manipulations, the X-Men were intercepted by a vengeful Magneto, who kidnapped and tortured them using his robotic creation, Nanny. In their escape, the X-Men destroyed Magneto's base, but became separated from Phoenix and Beast in the Savage Land, with each group presuming the other to be dead. Phoenix and Beast returned to the school to give Xavier the tragic news of the X-Men's demise. Grieving for his fallen students and believing to have nothing to keep him on Earth, Xavier chose to accompany Lilandra to the Shi'ar space as her consort.; On the Savage Land, the X-Men faced Sauron, who reverted to his Dr. Lykos identity and informed them to be an ally of Ka-Zar against Garokk the Petrified Man and the priestess Zaladane disrupting the location's delicate ecosystem. Following their victory against the villains, the X-Men set sail for home. Adrift in the raging ocean, they were rescued by a Japanese ship to Agarashima, where they joined Sunfire and the Daughters of the Dragon in opposing the warlord Moses Magnum. Though the heroes prevailed, Banshee injured his vocal cords in action and was left powerless. On their way back home, the X-Men were ambushed by Weapon Alpha, who now went by the name Vindicator, along with his team Alpha Flight to return Wolverine to Department H. Wolverine escaped by deceiving Alpha Flight into believing he would comply. Having finally returned home, the X-Men found their home uninhabited. They were then trapped by the maniac Arcade, who had been hired by Black Tom and Juggernaut, in his Murderworld. Forced to be part of deadly games, the X-Men ultimately turned the tables on Arcade, overpowering him and securing their freedom.; Wishing to safeguard the realm of Polemachus, Arkon the Magnificent aggressively pursued Storm. Despite his brutal methods, the X-Men ultimately aided him in restoring the stability of his domain. Upon returning home, the X-Men were unexpectedly met by the Beast. He informed them that Phoenix had also survived Magneto's onslaught and sought refuge at Moira's Research Station on Muir Island. However, Muir Island came under attack by Proteus, the reality-warping mutant son of Moira. Sensing the urgency, the X-Men intervened to face the threat. Although seemingly invincible, the insane Proteus was vulnerable to metal, leaving him defenseless against the unyielding might of Colossus' steel fists. The victory marked a joyous reunion for the X-Men, allowing them to return home without the burden of sorrow. In spite of his injuries, Banshee had stood by the X-Men's side throughout the battle. Yet, he came to a realization that his heart belonged with Moira on Muir Island, leading him to part ways with the X-Men to remain by her side.; ===The Fate of the Phoenix===; Returned to Earth, Professor X found his X-Men alive. However, out of touch with the experienced group of mutants, he inconveniently treated them as students, igniting debates with field leader Cyclops. Furthermore, Xavier wished to recruit new mutants for the school. The potential candidates were Kitty Pryde, a young and gifted girl with intangibility powers, and Dazzler, a captivating performer with light-based abilities. These two mutants also captured the attention of the macabre mutant secret society known as the Hellfire Club. Pryde was directly approached by the telepath Emma Frost, the Hellfire Club's high ranked White Queen. Frost's intentions were far from benevolent as she captured many of the X-Men to achieve her objectives. A brave Pryde contacted the remaining X-Men to confront Frost, who was overpowered and defeated by a ferocious Phoenix. Dazzler declined the invitation to join the X-Men, opting instead to lead an ordinary life as a star. On the other hand, Pryde's parents contemplated enrolling her at Xavier's School. This decision was catalyzed by Professor X's use of his psychic abilities to alter their memories, erasing traces of the recent tumultuous incidents.; Over the span of several months, Mastermind, harboring ambitions of joining the Hellfire Club, had been meticulously weaving illusory fantasies within Phoenix's mind. His fabrications awoke the darkest recesses of her soul, corrupting her to embrace the role of the Black Queen within the Hellfire Club to expand their power and influence. The X-Men investigated their secretive Inner Circle, namely Sebastian Shaw, Donald Pierce, and Harry Leland. The ruthless Black Queen cruelly chained and tortured the X-Men. Amidst the dire situation, the only unshackled X-Man, Wolverine, counterattacked the forces of the Hellfire Club by himself. Unexpectedly, in the commotion, Phoenix broke free from Mastermind's control, but his manipulations caused her to devolve into the vile Dark Phoenix. The transformation was overwhelming, demonstrated by the destruction of the X-Men's Blackbird aircraft and Phoenix abruptly departing from Earth. Driven by a voracious hunger for the same potency she had experienced while mending the M'kraan Crystal, Phoenix journeyed to a distant star within the Shi'ar Galaxy to harness energy, leading to the cataclysmic obliteration of a nearby planet teeming with billions of alien lives.; In turmoil, Dark Phoenix returned to Earth. Beast deployed a mental scrambler he had designed to quell the all-powerful entity. Simultaneously, Xavier, aided by Angel, placed mental barriers in her mind to allow Jean Grey's personality reassert control. Due to the massacre in their Empire, the Shi'ar arrived on Earth demanding the execution of Phoenix. In response, Xavier invoked an irrefutable Shi'ar duel of honor. Confident that her Imperial Guard would win, Majestrix Lilandra accepted to challenge the X-Men, pitting her champions against the mutants in a monumental battle. The X-Men fell one by one during a long battle on the Blue Area of the Moon. When only Cyclops and Phoenix remained standing, the former was hit by a stray energy bolt, inflicting a critical wound. Set into a panic, Jean Grey was provoked to unleash her power as Dark Phoenix. Xavier issued a dire command to his X-Men: they were to confront and subdue Phoenix, even at the risk of losing her forever to protect the solar system. In a climactic turn, Jean Grey wrested control from her evil tendencies once more and made the heart-wrenching decision to activate a potent weapon to trigger her own sacrifice and prevent another catastrophe.; ===Uncanny Adventures===; Following Jean Grey's funeral, Kitty Pryde assumed residence at the school as the newest X-Man, Sprite. Another addition was Angel, who decided to remain a member of the X-Men. On the other hand, Cyclops chose to take a hiatus, in order to use his time away to cope with the loss of his beloved partner. In the wake of these changes, the responsibility of leading the X-Men fell to Storm, who stepped up as a successor to Cyclops. After this, Nightcrawler faced an unexpected mystical assault orchestrated by his foster mother, Margali. United with the sorcerers Doctor Strange and Amanda Sefton, the X-Men assisted Nightcrawler in guiding Margali away from her vengeful path. Simultaneously, Storm took on the role of mentoring Pryde through her integration into the Xavier School, while Wolverine and Nightcrawler lent their aid to Alpha Flight in pursuing and capturing the cannibalistic monster Wendigo in the Canadian wilderness.; Storm's leadership underwent a trial-by-fire when Pryde's consciousness was psychically replaced by a future version of herself known as Kate Pryde. Future Pryde claimed she had journey back in time to avert a dystopian future resulting from mutants becoming the target of immense fear and hatred following the assassination of Senator Kelly, an anti-mutant politician. The execution was to be perpetrated by a new Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, led by the shape-shifter Mystique and comprised of Destiny, Pyro, Avalanche, and the Blob. In the ensuing conflict, Senator Kelly's life was saved by the X-Men, and the Brotherhood was arrested, which thwarted the immediate descent into a catastrophic world for mutants. However, the Brotherhood's assault still triggered a surge in anti-mutant sentiment, leading federal agent Henry Peter Gyrich to initiate Project: Wideawake, which deployed Sentinels sanctioned by the U.S. government and redesigned with Sebastian Shaw's technology as a response to the perceived mutant threat.; Upon the revelation that Arcade had been abducted by Doctor Doom, his associate, Miss Locke, coerced Storm into leading the X-Men to a perilous mission by abducting some of their family and allies. Despite the hostages managing to free themselves from Miss Locke's clutches, the X-Men still went to rescue Arcade driven by their commitment, only to discover an unexpected alliance between him and Doom. In a climactic confrontation, Storm unleashed her powers after being entrapped by a provoked Doctor Doom. The empowered feat allowed her to break free, liberate her captive teammates, and debate Arcade's fate. As a repercussion, Angel came to the realization that Wolverine's violent nature represented the degradation of the X-Men, prompting him to part ways with the team citing a misalignment with Professor Xavier's original vision of promoting peace.; In his adventures away from the X-Men, Cyclops unexpected found himself stranded in Magneto's Island M, situated in the Bermuda Triangle. At the time, Magneto posited humanity's governments with a dreadful ultimatum: embrace mutant supremacy and renounce armed conflict forever. He exemplified his might by attacking a Soviet military submarine. Determined to thwart his perilous course of action, the X-Men infiltrated Magneto's stronghold, reuniting with Cyclops during the mission. In a critical moment, Pryde skillfully dismantled the central computer that controlled his formidable super-weapon. As a response, Magneto violently lashed out and almost claimed her life. Confronted by the horror of his actions against a child, Magneto ceased hostilities and departed, contemplating he had descended to the level of those who had ruthlessly massacred his family. Around this period, Xavier and Moira clandestinely forged an alliance with Magneto. Recognizing the ominous inevitability that mutantkind was probably fated to lose, they acknowledged that unity among mutants was the only path to ensure prosperity.; Around the period the X-Men faced Magneto, they found themselves entangled in a web of other challenges. At some point, the detective super heroine Spider-Woman urgently contacted them about the condition of the comatose Carol Danvers, the Avenger formerly known as Ms. Marvel. Having fallen victim to the malicious Rogue, Danvers had her powers and memories siphoned. Driven by her own agenda, Rogue extended her assault to the Avengers to bring freedom to her teammates from the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. After the crisis, Danvers was entrusted to Xavier's care for recovery. In another mission, the X-Men joined forces with Invisible Girl to aid Arkon free Polemachus from the oppressive grip of the Badoon. While the team faced these threats, a confrontation with the Hellfire Club ensued as well. In a nefarious plot, Emma Frost incapacitated Storm and Pryde, while Shaw and Leland unleashed Project: Wideawake Sentinels to assail the X-Men. Frost attempted to mentally usurp Storm's body, but was ultimately defeated due to her inability to harness such immense weather manipulation powers.; ===The Brood===; The political instability in the Shi'ar Galaxy brought chaos to the X-Men. The first sign of it manifested as Corsair crash-landing on Earth while being pursued by Sidrian bounty hunters, an accident that destroyed the X-Mansion. The Starjammers sought the assistance of the X-Men to thwart a rebellion against Majestrix Lilandra. However, they had been framed for Lilandra's alleged kidnapping. The true perpetrators of the sinister plot was the Majestrix's sister Deathbird in coalition with the monstrous parasitic aliens known as the Brood. The situation grew dire as Colossus was mortally wounded during a battle which ended with Professor X and Lilandra being captured by Deathbird. Assisted by the Starjammers, the X-Men managed to heal Colossus and rescue the hostages. Despite their success, Deathbird's lackey Admiral Samédàr influenced the Shi'ar into planning to obliterate Earth. The X-Men were able to unravel the truth and intervene to halt the rebellion against the Shi'ar Empire. This caused Lilandra to be reinstated to power. However, Professor Xavier's contact with the infectious Brood caused him to fall into a coma.; As the X-Men faced extraplanetary challenges, mundane issues still plagued their existence. The escalating anti-mutant sentiment concerned the X-Men, particularly during a television interview with Senator Kelly. Given their early connections with the FBI, the X-Men believed themselves to be vulnerable due to the extensive files the bureau possessed on many of their members. In response, Carol Danvers used her influence to have the X-Men infiltrate the Pentagon to upload an open-ended virus to erase all references from the government's records. The operation thrust them into a perilous fight with Mystique and Rogue. In addition to this, two life-altering threats with beings of extreme evil were experienced by the X-Men. First, Storm fell victim to the lord of vampires Dracula. Subsequently, Illyana, the younger sister of Colossus, was abducted by the demon-lord Belasco, being consigned to years of torment in his temporally unstable demonic realm, Limbo. The X-Men emerged victorious in rescuing both Storm and Illyana. However, the scars from these encountered would shape their destinies.; As Xavier's condition reached a critical point, Deathbird and the Brood resurfaced. The X-Men, Lilandra, and Carol Danvers were kidnapped, having embryos implanted within them by the Brood Queen, setting the stage for a disturbing metamorphosis. In this setting, Xavier once more believed his pupils to have perished in battle. Meanwhile, intrigued by Danvers' unique genetic code, the Brood subjected her to experiments, transforming her into the all-powerful Binary. The X-Men eventually escaped the creatures' ominous “Sleazeworld”, but desperation took over their lives, since the matured embryos would irreversibly render them conduits for the birth of warrior Brood. A glimmer of hope emerged when Storm was rescued by a young Acanti, a colossal space-faring creature that had been enslaved by the Brood to be utilized as living starships. Having nothing left to lose, the X-Men pledged to save the Acanti race. After freeing the Acanti prophet-singer's soul from the depths of the Brood homeworld, the X-Men experienced a miraculous healing from the Brood infestation. In a climactic showdown, carried out with Binary's might, the Brood Queen was vanquished. During the crisis, Kitty Pryde encountered and befriended the amicable alien dragon Lockheed, who accompanied her back to Earth.; During the prolonged period of the X-Men being abducted by the Brood, the Xavier's School underwent reconstruction. However, a fully recovered Professor Xavier mourned the tragic demise of the X-Men and chose to abandon his dream of teaching young mutants. Moira was able to persuade him into forming a new class of adolescent mutants who needed guidance in controlling their special abilities. In order to spare them from danger, Professor X solely focused on training them in harnessing their powers rather than deploying them into action as he previously had with the X-Men. Despite this intention, the New Mutants ended up entangled in various battles regardless and occasionally provided support to the X-Men. As the X-Men were ready to return home, they learned that a Brood Queen embryo had been implanted in Professor Xavier as a consequence of his first contact with the evil aliens. Racing against time, the X-Men ultimately discovered Xavier had already succumbed to transformation into one of the Brood while battling the startled New Mutants. Defeated and captured aboard the Starjammer, Xavier's mind was transplanted into a cloned body, which eventually enabled him to regain the use of his legs.; ===Feared and Hated===; Intense fear and hate against mutants catalyzed the emergence of one of mutantkind's most abhorrent enemies, Reverend William Stryker and his fanatical Purifiers. These extremists harbored a deep-seated despise towards mutants and pursued a ruthless religious agenda of eliminating them. Employing both media smear campaigns and physical assaults, the Purifiers relentlessly targeted the X-Men, ultimately capturing key members such as Professor X, Cyclops, and Storm after a press conference. The other X-Men investigated their disappearance, surprisingly forging an alliance with Magneto to confront the Purifiers and rescue their comrades. Stryker, however, had weaponized Xavier's telepathy, turning it against mutant minds. During one of his public sermons, the reverend was opposed by Magneto and the X-Men. As tensions escalated, Stryker, consumed by his own bigotry, threatened the life of the mutant heroes, only to meet his demise at the hands of a human police officer. Although Stryker was neutralized, his cause lived on. The difficult dilemma proved that Xavier and Magneto could learn from each other's methods.; The complexities of mutant integration into society were also shown by the acts of erratic mutants. The X-Men found conflict in the form of the Morlocks, a community of disfigured mutant outcasts who lived underground and were led by the vicious Callisto. One of their victims was the gorgeous Angel, who was ensnared by Callisto into the tunnels the Morlocks dwelled to serve as her groom. Meanwhile, Pryde found herself kidnapped by another Morlock, Caliban, who she had encountered previously. The X-Men went on a mission to rescue their teammates, sparking a brutal combat between Storm and Callisto, stipulated to be fought without the use of powers and to the death. Having emerged victorious, Storm assumed leadership of the Morlocks to secure Angel's release. However, Pryde was soon involved in a similar predicament, as the Morlocks intended her to wed Caliban as a result of a promise she had made him. Following the X-Men's intervention, Caliban realized Pryde did not share his romantic affections and chose to release her in an amicable resolution.; Struggling with her uncontrollable powers and fractured psyche, Rogue appealed to the X-Men for asylum and help. Despite the X-Men being reluctant to accept Rogue in their sanctuary, Professor X insisted on accepting her as his new student, as part of his commitment to never abandon a mutant in need. Rogue swiftly demonstrated her value to the X-Men when she put herself at risk to rescue Wolverine and his fiancée, Mariko of Clan Yashida, from the clutches of the Viper and the Silver Samurai. However, tensions escalated when Mystique, deeply dissatisfied with Rogue's departure from the Brotherhood, orchestrated an attack on the X-Men and abducted Professor X, demanding Rogue's return. Rogue herself intervened to defuse the situation, persuading Mystique to abandon her scheme and release Xavier, averting further conflict between the two groups.; The personal lives of the X-Men became intricately affected by their adventures. Following his return from space, Cyclops took a leave from the team and met Madelyne Pryor while visiting his grandparents in Anchorage. Pryor exhibited a striking resemblance to Jean Grey, and their connection rapidly blossomed into a relationship. Although Mastermind attempted to disrupt their romance, his schemes were thwarted by the X-Men, who then celebrated Cyclops' and Pryor's wedding. While Mastermind failed to destroy Cyclops' marriage, he succeeded in shattering Wolverine's. As the X-Men grappled with these personal upheavals, Storm and Kitty Pryde also underwent profound transformations in their souls. Storm embraced dark facets of her nature, particularly after relating to the assassin known as Yukio in Japan. Similarly, Pryde also found herself profoundly changed after being brainwashed by Wolverine's former sensei Ogun. Adopting a new mantle as Shadowcat, she reflected a darker attitude borne from her ordeal, symbolizing a shift in her character after Ogun was put down with Wolverine's assistance.; Heroes in a world that hated and feared them, the X-Men were drawn to a mysterious structure that had emerged in Central Park. Suddenly abducted, they were transported to Battleworld, an artificial amalgamation of different worlds created by the enigmatic Beyonder. Alongside other super heroes, they were forced into a bizarre contest, being pitted against super villains. Having sided themselves with Magneto, the X-Men faced suspicion and rejection from other heroes. Eventually, as the conflict escalated, the X-Men reconciled with their fellow heroes, prioritizing solidarity to end the crisis by depowering Doctor Doom, whose insatiable thirst for power had led him to usurp energies from Galactus and the Beyonder. Having returned to Earth, the X-Men emerged in Japan, where they stood alongside Sunfire to defend it against an alien dragon monster.; Due to her past as former mutant terrorist as well as her recent involvement in infiltrating a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, Rogue was perceived by the government as a threat to public safety. Responding to Henry Gyrich's demands and Val Cooper's consent, the brilliant mutant inventor and engineer Forge devised a dampening weapon to nullify Rogue's powers. In a tragic error, Gyrich inadvertently shot Storm instead during the operation, leaving the powerful wind-rider stripped of her abilities. Under Forge's care in Eagle Plaza, Dallas, Storm struggled to cope with her disconnection to the forces of nature. Alongside Forge and her fellow X-Men, she fearlessly confronted the extraterrestrial menace of the Dire Wraiths, demonstrating that her strength and valor transcended the mere possession of mutant abilities. Despite her condition, Storm exhibited resilience, proving her worth as the leader of the X-Men on the battlefield in missions to come.; The arrival of the time traveller Rachel Summers to the present timeline drew the attention of the mutant succubus Selene, who coveted her potent life force. Rachel came from the dystopic future the X-Men averted by protecting Senator Kelly and was the offspring of Cyclops and Phoenix who could never be born. Having been rescued by the X-Men, Rachel was welcomed into their ranks. However, unbeknownst to all, she had been followed by the super-advanced and self-adapting sentinel called Nimrod, who posed a grave threat to mutantkind. Its existence became known to the X-Men as he cunningly exploited a mission to apprehend Juggernaut, thrusting itself into the public eye. Through calculated manipulation, Nimrod succeeded in portraying itself as a heroic figure by positioning itself as a paragon of resistance against the perceived mutant menace. Another shadow from the past came as the tragic death of Thunderbird haunted Xavier when he was kidnapped by James Proudstar, Thunderbird's younger brother. Seeking vengeance against the X-Men for his brother's demise, Proudstar's actions triggered a confrontation between the X-Men and Emma Frost's protégés, the Hellions. Ultimately, Proudstar relented and released Xavier.; When the omnipotent Beyonder emerged on Earth, Xavier psychically sensed his arrival in horror and mobilized the super hero community to oppose him. He not only assembled his X-Men for the mission, but also entrusted them to be led by Magneto. However, Magneto was a target for the authorities. While attending a Holocaust memorial gathering, he was apprehended by Freedom Force, a federal mutant team led by Mystique and sanctioned by Val Cooper. Charged with past crimes, Magneto was thrust into a trial in Paris, where he was met with a partial exoneration. The event was marred by the interference of the fascistic Fenris twins, who endangered Magneto and Professor X in the labyrinthine Parisian sewers. Being half-drowned and in a near-death state, Xavier made a fateful decision to pass on the position of headmaster of his school to his old friend and nemesis Magneto. Xavier departed with Lilandra to recuperate from his injuries in the Shi'ar Galaxy. Masquerading as Xavier's cousin, Magneto undertook the responsibility of guiding the New Mutants at Xavier's School, in an attempt to experience Professor X's dream.; Considering the birth of his son with Madelyne Pryor, Cyclops made the difficult decision to step away from the X-Men, fully relinquishing the leadership role to Storm. With Professor X staying in the Shi'ar Galaxy and Magneto assuming the position of headmaster at the school, the dynamics within the X-Men underwent a major shift. The team became unrecognizable by the first class of X-Men. The return of Jean Grey from the throes of death compelled the original X-Men to keep Xavier's dream alive in the form of an independent mutant initiative named X-Factor. Under the guise of mutant hunters, X-Factor captured fellow mutants to covertly protect and train them, but kept themselves completely separate from the activities of the X-Men.; ===Mutant Massacre===; Since Rachel claimed the power of the Phoenix, her presence became perceived as a danger by her fellow X-Men, particularly evident during her confrontation against the omnipotent Beyonder. Matters escalated when she attempted to assassinate Selene at the Hellfire Club, only to be intercepted and mortally wounded by Wolverine. In a bid to rescue Rachel and halt Selene's nefarious schemes, the X-Men allied themselves with the Morlocks, leading to a showdown at the Hellfire Club. The agglomeration of mutants drew the attention of Nimrod, prompting a united effort of all the mutants involved to successfully dismantle the highly advanced android. However, Rachel mysteriously vanished after falling into the clutches of the mysterious Spiral and her master, the dreadful Mojo. Other victims of Mojo and Spiral were the British telepath Psylocke and the New Mutants Wolfsbane and Sunspot, who were ensnared in the twisted confines of Mojoverse, but fortunately rescued by the remaining New Mutants. Mojo's insidious ploys persisted as he dispatched the amnesiac hero Longshot into the Danger Room, subsequently capturing the X-Men and de-aging them for his televised entertainment. Once more, the New Mutants saved the day. Following these tumultuous events, Psylocke and a comatose Longshot found refuge within the walls of the X-Mansion.; The merciless Marauders, secretly commanded by Mister Sinister, inflicted a devastating blow upon the X-Men by callously murdering the majority of the Morlocks dwelling in the sewer tunnels. Following the initial attack, the Morlocks went to the X-Men for help. The first clash with the Marauders proved to be catastrophic for the X-Men, leaving Nightcrawler in a coma, Shadowcat trapped in an intangible state, and Colossus paralyzed in his steel form. Being beyond the immediate aid of the X-Men, they were transferred to Muir Island for treatment under the care of Moira. The tragedy radicalized the X-Men's perception on violence and on how to deal with murderous enemies.; Following the Morlock massacre, the Marauders relentlessly harassed the X-Men. One of their vilest members Sabretooth launched an attack on the X-Mansion, in a brawl that left Cerebro in ruins. Due to her efforts in fighting the monster, Psylocke earned a position on the team. Another Marauder, Malice, attempted to possess Dazzler, who was saved by and joined the ranks of the X-Men after the incident. Upon arriving at Muir Island, the new recruits, alongside the recovered Longshot, had their baptism of fire by facing off the unstoppable Juggernaut. As they regrouped home, the X-Men encountered Havok, another target of Marauders, who had narrowly escaped an attack and rejoined the X-Men. However, where Dazzler escaped Malice, Polaris did not, becoming the new leader of the Marauders under her influence. Another prey of the Marauders was Madelyne Pryor and her son, who were brutally stalked by them. Such pressure caused the X-Men to switch roles and become the hunters in order to protect the targeted victims. Despite their efforts, the overpowered Marauders escaped after a fierce confrontation. Tragically, during the mayhem, Pryor's baby vanished without a trace, leaving a haunting mystery in its wake.; Shadowcat's condition deteriorated as she lost corporeal cohesion. In desperate need of help, Magneto approached Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four on the X-Men's behalf. However, Richards was hesitant to employ a device of his to stabilize Shadowcat, prompting a fight between the X-Men and Fantastic Four on Muir Island. Doctor Doom took advantage of the situation to offer his help instead. Ultimately, the X-Men agreed to join Doctor Doom in Latveria even if it mean being in his debt. The process was interrupted by the Fantastic Four, who decided to supervise the process that reversed Shadowcat's disintegration. A similar conflict took place after Magneto was lured by the Avengers with information about the remains of Asteroid M in order to apprehend him. The X-Men stroke back. The fight escalated as the Soviet Super-Soldiers arrived demanding Magneto's execution, and the X-Men escaped. The psychic Doctor Druid managed to infiltrate their Blackbird, forcing them to hide in Singapore. However, as the actions of the Soviets put lives in danger, the X-Men were forced to reveal themselves and join forces with the Avengers to perform rescue missions. In the end, Magneto surrendered and faced trial. Although being judged innocent, his freedom sparked anti-mutant sentiment.; ===Fall of the Mutants===; To restore her powers, Storm embarked on a journey to Eagle Plaza only to find it magically corrupted. The X-Men launched a search for her whereabouts, but their efforts were interrupted by Mystique's Freedom Force, who enforced the Mutant Registration Act in an attempt to protect their lives using brute force. As the conflict raged, a rift tore open the sky unleashing a maelstrom of surreal phenomena. While the X-Men and Freedom Force protected civilians, Storm's powers were restored with the spiritual guidance of Forge. It was revealed that the malevolent entity known as the Adversary was behind the crisis. The X-Men sacrificed their lives to empower a banishing spell cast by Forge. The world watched their final act on live television believing the legendary heroes had perished in the battle. Nevertheless, Roma secretly intervened, resurrecting the fallen X-Men. Exhausted by relentless attacks from enemies, the X-Men chose to use their apparent demise as a cover, retreating into the shadows as they were mourned. In the wake of the X-Men's end, Shadowcat, Nightcrawler, and Phoenix formed Excalibur, a group dedicated to preserving Xavier's dream and upholding the legacy of the X-Men.; Though the X-Men escaped their former enemies, they soon faced a new threat. Relocated to the Australian Outback, they confronted the ruthless mercenaries known as the Reavers. After freeing Gateway and Jessán Hoan from the villains' grasp, they seized control of the mercenaries' highly technological complex. With the Reavers thrown out, Roma greeted the X-Men by granting them invisibility to electronic detection and presenting them with the Siege Perilous, a mystical gem that could cast a portal that offered a fresh start in life to those who walked through it. During this tumultuous adaptation, the X-Men also battled mutants infected by the Brood in Denver and became adversaries to the mutant-oppressive government of Genosha while rescuing Jenny Ransome and Madelyne Pryor in a covert ops mission on the island-nation.; As the X-Men embarked on missions, Pryor played a role as their tech support. In this solitary function, she gradually fell under the influence of the demon N'astirh from Limbo, ultimately striking a dark pact to locate her son, leading her to transform into the malevolent Goblin Queen. Meanwhile, the X-Men tracked the Marauders down in Manhattan. As the two groups warred each other, N'astirh transported Pryor to Mister Sinister's orphanage, where she found her child and learned about her unsettling origin as a clone of Jean Grey. The corrupted Goblin Queen unleashed a hellish demonic invasion in New York City. During this Inferno, X-Factor also searched for the missing child, eventually meeting and teaming up with the X-Men for the first time to defeat N'astirh. In a desperate act, Pryor risked her own son's life, being opposed by the X-Men and X-Factor. Tragically, Pryor met her end in an attempt to take down Jean Grey. Following her demise, the X-Men journeyed to Xavier's School to confront Mister Sinister, who had started a telepathic assaults on Jean Grey. After a grueling battle that destroyed the X-Mansion, Cyclops unleashed a devastating optic blast, seemingly obliterating Sinister once and for all.; Despite having survived a demonic inferno, the X-Men soon faced their end. Nimrod reactivated and merged with Master Mold, attacking Rogue and Psylocke in New York City. The X-Men rushed to aid their teammates, but were overpowered. As the last woman standing, Dazzler invoked the Siege Perilous to trap the robotic monstrosity within the otherworldly gateway. The Sentinel tenaciously seized Rogue as she attempted to force it through the portal. Confronted with no alternative, Dazzler blasted both into the Siege Perilous to eliminate the villain. Rogue was lost. Overcome by an existential crisis, Longshot decided to depart from the X-Men. Shortly thereafter, the psychotic villain known as Nanny attacked the X-Men's base, in a confrontation where Havok accidentally slayed Storm with his catastrophic powers. The X-Men were then reduced to a mere fraction of their former roster.; ===Dissolution & Rebirth===; After Havok received a distress call from Polaris, who appeared to be free from Malice's influence, the X-Men ventured into the Savage Land to rescue her under Psylocke's leadership. Upon arrival, they were ambushed by Magneto's former mutates, now commanded by Zaladane. Despite the conflict, the X-Men successfully helped Polaris. During their stay in the Savage Land, Psylocke telepathically uncovered that the Reavers meticulously planned for revenge for months. Now led by Donald Pierce and bolstered by the addition of Lady Deathstrike, they would certainly annihilate the X-Men if chance given. To prevent the inevitable massacre of her teammates, Psylocke persuaded them to traverse the Siege Perilous. Although Wolverine fell into the clutches of the Reavers, the rest of the X-Men vanished from the world, effectively marking the dissolution of the team.; Wolverine endured relentless torture at the hands of the Reavers for days, until being unexpectedly freed by Jubilee, a mutant child with the ability to generate explosive fireworks, who had been clandestinely residing at the X-Men's base for some time. Together, Wolverine and Jubilee escaped the Reavers. In Hong Kong, they discovered that the Mandarin had consolidated his dominance over the city's criminal underworld by forcing an alliance with the Hand. While investigating this situation, they were ambushed and captured by the Mandarin's prime assassin, Lady Mandarin. Wolverine recognized her to be Psylocke, whose mind and soul had been twisted by Matsu'o Tsurayaba. Her condition was reversed, which shattered her brainwashing and ultimately led to the Mandarin's defeat.; In a world without X-Men, a powerless Polaris boarded a freighter to leave the Savage Land. She reached out to Muir Island for assistance, prompting Banshee to come for her rescue. He was joined by Amanda Sefton and Brigadier Sandy Stuart, who at the time searched for Excalibur. Although the Reavers had lost track of the X-Men, they still were eager for revenge, redirecting their wrath towards the residents of Muir Island instead. Banshee was their first casualty, suffering a gunshot wound that incapacitated his vocal powers. In response, Moira hastily assembled an interim team of X-Men to protect Muir Island, formed by mutants and humans, namely Polaris, Sefton, Stuart, Sharon Friedlander, and Tom Corsi. Val Cooper also dispatched Forge and Mystique's Freedom Force to deflect Pierce's onslaught. During the conflict, which was exacerbated by the unhinged son of Xavier Legion, mutant lives were lost, including Destiny's. The surviving heroes overcame the Reavers. In the aftermath, Polaris asserted that the X-Men were, in fact, alive. This prompted Banshee to enlist Forge to find and reform the X-Men.; In their quest, Forge and Banshee looked for clues at the ruins of the X-Mansion, where they encountered Jean Grey being attacked by an extremist faction of villainous Morlocks led by Masque. Another target of Masque was Callisto, who was romantically involved with an amnesiac Colossus. Forge, Banshee, and Jean Grey teamed up with Callisto and Colossus to thwart Masque's vile schemes. This group, also joined by Beast, was then drawn into a conflict against the Genoshan militia soldiers from the Press Gang. They aimed to recapture Jenny Ransom, who was residing with Colossus in New York City under the identity of “Peter Nicholas,” a popular artist in Soho. After defeating the Press Gang, Colossus' former teammates chose to leave him in peace, recognizing he was content with his ordinary life.; Surprisingly, Storm had survived, having been de-aged by Nanny and living on the streets of Cairo as a teenage thief with no recollection of her prior life. She was detected by the Shadow King, the monstrous psychic entity who had been corrupting mutants all over the world. Saved from the Shadow King's enslaved lackeys by the mysterious mutant thief known as Gambit, Storm formed a solid partnership with him in thieving activitives, until they were tracked down by Nanny. After they defeated her, Storm's memories resurfaced, prompting her to rejoin the X-Men and bring Gambit with her to Xavier's School. As the X-Men gradually reformed, they found themselves warring against the monstrous Ahab for Rachel Summers' protection alongside X-Factor, the New Mutants and the Fantastic Four.; ===Genoshan X-Tinction Agenda===; The partially regrouped mutants at the X-Mansion's ruins were soon thrown another hurdle; Genoshan Magistrates captured Storm and some of the New Mutants for crimes committed on the island by the X-Men. One of the enforcers was Havok, who had emerged from the Siege Perilous on Genosha. The hostages were brought before their true captor, Cameron Hodge. Once an X-Factor ally, Hodge actually despised mutants and made a deal with the demon N'astirh to become immortal, and came to take control of the nation of Genosha, carrying out an X-Tinction Agenda against mutants. Learning of the kidnapping, X-Factor joined forces with the X-Men and the remaining New Mutants to rescue the hostages on Genosha. Meanwhile, Wolverine, Jubilee and Psylocke learned about their friends' fates and went into action as well. Jubilee took care of the rescued New Mutants, while Wolverine and Psylocke infiltrated Hodge's Citadel, only to be discovered by Havok. The X-Men and X-Factor fared no better, with both squads becoming captives. Meanwhile, Storm had taken Genegineer David Moreau, creator of the mutate process, hostage, but was subdued by Hodge and forced to become a mutate, a process which returned her to adulthood. When Havok witnessed Hodge torturing his brother Cyclops, his memories resurfaced, undoing his brainwashing as a magistrate.; In a mock trial, Hodge judged the captured mutants to be guilty, and all were given the choice of being transformed into a mutate or be executed. They chose death, but Hodge first had to deal with the insurrection of the Genegineer, who considered Hodge's actions to be insane and dangerous. Hodge killed the magistrate Wipeout to force the mutant heroes to become powerless. Unbeknownst to him, Moreau had given Storm the ability to return the mutants their gifts rather than turning them into mutates. She repowered her teammates, and all escaped. Concurrently, Moreau planted a bomb to destroy all laboratories within the citadel. Furious, Hodge killed the traitor, though the Genegineer was able to weaken him considerably. The X-Men eventually found Hodge and destroyed him and his Citadel. The reunited mutants returned to Salem Center and began to rebuild the team that had been splintered for months. As a result of the tragic and violent conflict, New Mutants' leader, Cable, revamped the team as the more aggressive band of terrorists X-Force.; From the Siege Perilous, Rogue was sent to the Reavers' Australian base with her memory intact weeks later. She soon realized she lacked the psyche and the powers of Carol Danvers. Attacked by the Reavers, she was able to flee to the Savage Land through Gateway's aid. There, she was attacked by Ms. Marvel, and discovered the Siege Perilous had given both personalities within Rogue a body connected to a single lifeforce. Rogue was prepared to die, but Magneto intervened and killed Danvers, saving Rogue's life. The two spent time in the Savage Land, allying themselves with Ka-Zar and S.H.I.E.L.D. against Zaladane. Though Magneto and Rogue became attracted to one another, their relationship ended before it had a chance to blossom once Magneto killed Zaladane in cold blood, something Rogue opposed to.; ===The Return of Professor X===; Fully reformed, the X-Men unfortunately had no rest. As a result of Deathbird's machinations, the group was recruited by teleporter Lila Cheney, who claimed Xavier's life was at risk in outer space. The X-Men reunited with the Starjammers and Professor X in Chandilar, soon learning Xavier he had been replaced by a War Skrull, as part of a scheme to control the Shi'ar throne, which justified Deathbird's call for help. After the X-Men defeated the Skrulls and liberated Xavier and the Shi'ar throne, Xavier learned of the Shadow King's recent schemes by accessing Storm's memories. He then decided to return to Earth to oppose his old enemy's return.; While the X-Men were in their adventures, the Shadow King concentrated his efforts on Moira, assembling mutants to her Muir Island team, building an army, consisting of Multiple Man, Siryn, Guido, and even Rogue and Colossus. The Shadow King had been spreading waves of hate around the globe and used Polaris to absorb the negative emotional energy to empower himself to unthinkable levels. Professor X returned from his sojourn in space and sent to Muir Island to confront their oddly acting allies, where they were surprised and defeated by the Shadow King-controlled island residents. Meanwhile, in Westchester, Professor X and Stevie Hunter were attacked by a possessed Colossus. Xavier found no way to break Shadow King's control over him other than erasing the Peter Nicholas personality completely.; Professor X then asked his original students, X-Factor, to rescue the current X-Men and stop Shadow King's hate wave. On Muir Island, Shadow King used Legion as his human host while Forge eluded possession and even freed some of his friends. The remaining heroes in good mind were divided into three teams, focusing on an astral plane attack on Farouk, with a second team defending Xavier from physical attacks, and a third one freeing Polaris and disrupting their enemies' nexus. Professor X was badly wounded during the battle, as his legs broken and he became again confined to a wheelchair. As the Shadow King disappeared, all five X-Factor members returned to the X-Men along with Rogue and Colossus; after many years the X-Men finally reunited as one team. The name X-Factor was appropriated by Val Cooper as a revamped mutant organization sanctioned by the U.S. government.; ===Mutant Genesis: Blue and Gold===; Professor X rebuilt the X-Mansion and the X-Men, with the team larger than ever before now moved back to their former home. To remain effective as a group, the X-Men were divided into two squads: Blue, led by Cyclops, consisting of Beast, Wolverine, Rogue, Psylocke, and Gambit; and Gold, led by Storm, consisting of Jean Grey, Iceman, Archangel, and Colossus. Following the return of Magneto's activities, S.H.I.E.L.D. requested the X-Men to investigate. The Blue Squad battled Magneto and his new team, the Acolytes, in Genosha. Discovering Moira had altered his DNA years ago, Magneto questioned if his recent turn to heroics was a result of Moira's tampering or his own free will was. He then forced Moira to brainwash the X-Men Blue Squad into joining his Acolytes on Asteroid M, a space station that served as a haven for mutants. To make matters worse, the American and Russian governments decided to use a plasma cannon on the space station to end the threat of Magneto once and for all. Worried about their friends, the Gold Squad sneaked on board and rescued their teammates, while a traitorous Fabian Cortez abandoned Asteroid M and planned to sacrifice Magneto as a martyr, so mutants around the world would join him. Xavier tried to talk the Acolytes into escaping the doomed base with the X-Men, but Magneto and his followers chose to stay and die instead.; The Blue Squad then was put into another conflict after Omega Red, a member of the Soviet Super Soldier program, attacked the X-Mansion to capture Wolverine. Following his kidnapping, Jubilee joined the Blue Squad. Omega Red had been sent by Matsu'o Tsurayaba, who also planned to regain his control over Psylocke, who in turn took the opportunity to pretend to be still under the Hand's brainwashing. Wolverine's former teammates from Team X, Maverick and Sabretooth, also joined the conflict. With the help of Omega Red, the X-Men successfully defeated their enemies after Psylocke revealed her true allegiances and saved Wolverine.; Their next adventure ensued after Gambit's wife, Belladonna, demanded his help with a conflict between the Thieves Guild and the Assassins Guild in New Orleans. Belladonna's arrival shook off Gambit's recent relationship with his teammate, Rogue. As the X-Men investigated the matter, they learned that the Brood was behind the war between the Guilds. With the help of the Ghost Rider, the problem was solved.; Following a rebellion on Mojoworld, Dazzler, Longshot, and Lila Cheney contacted the X-Men Blue Team to assist them in dethroning Mojo. Captured, the X-Men were forced to be actors in Mojo's television system as Professor X was tortured by the mad tyrant. With the combined efforts of the X-Men and the rebels of the Mojoworld, Longshot "canceled" Mojo. Soon after, the X-Men helped Professor X deal with a friend from his infancy, the mutant known as Hazard.; Meanwhile, the Gold team attended a party at the Hellfire Club thrown by Emma Frost, who had asked for their help after an attempt on her life and other assaults against members of the Club. Before long, Trevor Fitzroy, a mutant from the future, personally attacked Frost and her Hellions and sent Sentinels to kill Donald Pierce in Australia. Pierce forced Gateway to teleport him out of harm's way to Fitzroy's location, but the Sentinels managed to follow them through the portal, resulting in the apparent murders of Frost, her Hellions, Pierce, and Jean Grey. Back at the X-Mansion, Xavier realized Jean Grey's consciousness had been relocated to Emma Frost's body. Fitzroy, alongside with Shinobi Shaw, were revealed to be members of the Upstarts, who competed in a contest of murder run by the Gamesmaster. Jean Grey surprised her captors and escaped with the X-Men. As Fitzroy tried to bring allies from the future, Bishop, his archnemesis law enforcer, arrived instead. Though the Upstarts escaped, the X-Men survived. As Jean Grey's mind returned to her body, a comatose Emma Frost was left in the care of the X-Men, and Bishop was on the loose.; On their way home, the Gold team assessed a bizarre extra-dimensional rift in the North Pacific alongside Sunfire. While investigating the rift, the X-Men were dragged to another dimension, where they found Colossus' older brother Mikhail, who had disappeared years before when he was a Soviet cosmonaut. With Mikhail's and Sunfire's help, the X-Men sealed the portal and returned to the X-Mansion. The Gold squad then turned their attentions back to Bishop, who had been responsible for a destruction path as he tried to locate Fitzroy. The X-Men captured Bishop after a chaotic battle and, to their surprise, Professor X made Bishop an X-Man. As a time-traveler from the future, Bishop revealed the X-Men would soon be betrayed by one of their own. Following Masque's recent apparent death, the Morlocks attempted to force Callisto to lead them again. Heavily injured, she sought refuge at the X-Mansion. As the Gold team covered the Morlock Tunnels, Mikhail deceivingly joined forces with Callisto, gravely injuring Iceman and claiming the Morlocks' leadership for himself. In a violent conflict with the X-Men, Mikhail decided to flood the tunnels, taking the Morlocks to another dimension in the process, much to Colossus' disappointment.; ===Legacy Virus===; When giving a speech about mutant-human coexistence during a Lila Cheney peace concert, Professor X was shot by X-Force's leader, Cable, being infected with a techno-organic virus. Simultaneously, Cyclops and Jean Grey were abducted by the Horsemen of Apocalypse. They were delivered to Mister Sinister, who was disguised as Apocalypse unbeknownst to the Horsemen and handed the couple over to the MLF in exchange for a mysterious container. The X-Men Blue Team joined X-Factor in arresting X-Force for information on Cable's whereabouts. Meanwhile, MLF's leader Stryfe was revealed to be behind the attacks on Xavier and on Cyclops and Jean Grey as he had impersonated Cable.; The real Cable convinced Wolverine and Bishop it was Stryfe who had shot Xavier, revealing both were from the future and had long been enemies. Searching for Cyclops and Jean Grey, the X-Men Gold Team confronted Apocalypse. Apocalypse, in a weakened state, was then defeated by Stryfe. This led to an unexpected team-up between the X-Men and Apocalypse, with the aim of defeating Stryfe and saving Xavier's life, as Apocalypse was the original creator of the techno-organic virus.; Wolverine received a subconscious telepathic message from Jean Grey, hinting that she was being held captive on the Moon. The X-Men found Stryfe's Moon base and launched an attack. Summers and Grey were rescued, though Cable disappeared with Stryfe into the time-stream, after the revelation that Cable was Cyclops' and Madelyne Pryor's lost son. After the battle, Sinister opened the container unleashing Stryfe's final revenge on the X-Men: the mutant infecting Legacy Virus.; Following Stryfe's defeat, Colossus' family was targeted by the Russian government, who wanted to recruit Illyana to destroy the menacing Soul Skinner. With the efforts of the X-Men Blue Team, Illyana was rescued, though they could not save Colossus' parents. Though orphaned, Illyana was apparently safe at the X-Mansion, until it was revealed she was one of the first mutants to contract the terminal Legacy Virus, severely affecting the X-Men.; Next, the X-Men were confronted by the mysterious Revanche, who accused Psylocke of being an impostor, claiming to be the real Betsy Braddock prior to her entrance in the Siege Perilous. The X-Men Blue Team went to Japan to verify Revanche's claims. After battling the Silver Samurai, Lord Nyoirin, and Matsu'o Tsurayaba, they returned with few answers and with Revanche joined to the team. Revanche came to be the first X-Men to fell ill to the Legacy Virus. Before succumbing to the disease, she discovered her body had been swiped with Psylocke in a bizarre plot by Spiral. As Revanche died, Psylocke claimed the rights over her identity back.; Meanwhile, the X-Men Gold team was trapped by a set of illusions cast by Mastermind, who was on the verge of death for being afflicted by the Legacy Virus. At the same time, they were attacked by the X-Cutioner, an anti-mutant FBI agent who had access to equipment that the X-Men confiscated from alien races inherited from Fred Duncan and acted as a vigilante, having Wyngarde as his target. As Wyngarde died in the arms of Jean Grey, his illusions faded, and X-Cutioner managed to escape the X-Men.; ===Fatal Attractions===; Obsessed with Magneto's teachings, the Acolytes, under Cortez's rule, were more aggressive than before, being responsible for terrorist attacks against humanity. The X-Men were surprised to see the Acolytes active and tried to stop their harmful activities. However, the fight between the two groups only incited more fear towards mutants. Unbeknownst to the Acolytes, Cortez was secretly colluding with the Upstarts. After the Acolytes captured Moira, the X-Men decided to attack their castle in order to save her. A physical, but also ideological, battle ensued, resulting in Moira being rescued and Cortez unmasked as a false prophet.; Soon after, during a trip to the Savage Land, Professor X, Cyclops, and Storm were attacked by the Upstart Siena Blaze. Their lives were saved by a mysterious benefactor with magnetic powers. It turned out Magneto resurfaced very much alive and with a new lead Acolyte, Exodus, the self-proclaimed voice of Magneto who gathered mutants to Magneto's new haven, Avalon. Magneto met the X-Men during Illyana's funeral, offering them a place by his side. Devastated by his family's death, Colossus expressed he had lost faith in Xavier's dream, deciding to join Magneto.; Magneto then prepared an all-out war on humanity upon learning about the Magneto Protocols, a plan to alter the Earth's electromagnetic field to inhibit his powers, had been activated. The rest of the X-Men stood by their mentor and attacked Magneto on his new space base when he began sending massive E.M.P. waves around the globe. During the fight, Magneto ripped the adamantium laced onto Wolverine's skeleton out of his body leaving him near death. Unable to deal with his old friend's violence any longer, Xavier shut down Magneto's mind, leaving him catatonic. Colossus stayed with his leader, vowing to care for him until he was fully healed.; Cortez, desperate after losing the power he once had as the leader of the Acolytes, brought chaos to Genosha, inciting a mutant revolution by kidnapping Magneto's granddaughter, Luna. Quicksilver asked for the X-Men's help in rescuing his daughter. The X-Men teamed up with the Avengers to defeat Cortez, but were interrupted by Exodus, who wished to execute Cortez for his blasphemy. Unfortunately, Exodus also intended to claim Luna and purge Genosha from its human population. With the efforts of the X-Men and the Avengers, he was ultimately defeated.; Gravely wounded by Magneto's attack, Wolverine chose to leave the X-Men. Ironically, he was somehow replaced by his archnemesis Sabretooth, who was a hostage of his own savage powers, leading him to ask for the X-Men's help to control his bestial tendencies. Xavier took Sabretooth to the mansion, keeping him locked in the Danger Room. Sabretooth's presence in the school caused much distress to the X-Men, especially Gambit, whom Sabretooth claimed to had a common past with. Meanwhile, among so much conflict in their lives, the X-Men had a moment of joy at the wedding of Cyclops and Jean Grey.; ===Next Generation===; Around this period, the X-Men experienced several encounters with the mysterious Phalanx, a techno-organic race bent on ruling the world, who consumed organic matter, incorporating it to its collective consciousness. In one of their attacks to the X-Men, Emma Frost inadvertently woke up from her coma in Iceman's body. Confused and believing herself to be a prisoner of the X-Men, she tried to escape, using Iceman's powers in unprecedented ways. When she discovered the tragic fate of her Hellions, she broke down and began to realize that her training had been insufficient and that her students would likely have been better off with the Xavier.; Not long after, the Phalanx took over the X-Mansion and assumed the form of various X-Men. Banshee managed to escape along with the captive Sabretooth, a recovering Emma Frost, and the youngest X-Man, Jubilee. They learned the Phalanx were after the next generation of mutants, hoping to experiment and eventually absorb the young mutants into their collective. Joined by the young Everett Thomas, they saved the targeted young mutants, but only with the sacrifice of the young Blink. The surviving teenage mutants became Generation X, being taught by Banshee and Frost at the Massachusetts Academy. With the young mutants gone, the Xavier's School was reformulated as the “Xavier Institute for Higher Learning”.; ===Age of Apocalypse===; When Legion woke up from his coma with his fragmented mind healed, he planned to travel back in time to kill Magneto, his father's greatest enemy. The X-Men Bishop, Storm, Iceman, and Psylocke traveled back in time to stop him, but were unsuccessful. As Legion fired a powerful psi-blast at Magneto, Charles Xavier sacrificed himself to save his friend. With Xavier dead, reality was rewritten. Only Bishop, a temporal anomaly, remained unaffected. Legion's actions were devastating. Noticing the mutant energies during Xavier's murder, Apocalypse carried on his world domination years earlier than he would have otherwise, conquering most of a world known as the Age of Apocalypse. In this dystopian reality, the X-Men were founded by Magneto and acted as freedom fighters. Although they suffered many casualties, the X-Men were able to send Bishop back in time to stop Legion and restore reality to normal. However, the crisis had many consequences since some individuals crossed over to the regular timeline.; During the reality altering crisis, the conflicting couple Rogue and Gambit had additional problems after they shared their first kiss, since Rogue absorbed some of Gambit's darkest memories. Meanwhile, Cable had his X-Force relocated to the X-Mansion, promoting his field leader Cannonball to the X-Men. On Avalon, the Acolytes made contact with Holocaust, one of the escapees from the Age of Apocalypse. Holocaust ravaged Avalon slaying many of the Acolytes, who were assisted by Cyclops and Jean Grey (who had adopted the codename Phoenix). Following the fall of Avalon, the past came to haunt the X-Men in the form of the mutant terrorist group known as Gene Nation, led by the ruthless Marrow. The Gene Nation members were descendants of the Morlocks who Mikhail had transported from Earth. Now returned, they orchestrated a massive terrorist attack in retaliation for the Morlock Massacre. The X-Men were alerted by Colossus and Callisto and were able to stop the Gene Nation after Storm was forced to murder Marrow, by ripping her heart out.; Other two interlopers from the Age of Apocalypse, namely Dark Beast and Sugar Man, were afraid that Bishop might recognize and expose their existence, especially to Mister Sinister, who they feared the most. To eliminate him, they had hired the assassin Fatale to seduce and kill Bishop. As Bishop noticed Fatale was a threat, she engaged in a fight with the X-Men. During this fight, Dark Beast realized the best way to hide was simply assimilating his counterpart's identity as a member of the X-Men. Dark Beast kept the real Beast captive secretly, while acting as a member of the X-Men. During a mission, Dark Beast, Bishop, and Gambit were captured by Mister Sinister, much to Dark Beast's despair. However, he manipulated Gambit into destroying Sinister's lab and preventing him from learning about the Age of Apocalypse.; Meanwhile, Sabretooth's permanence at the X-Mansion would end tragically when he tricked X-Force member Boomer into believing he had reformed. As he revealed his true intentions and put Boomer at risk, Psylocke went to her rescue, being savagely brutalized by Sabretooth. To save Psylocke's life, the X-Men Archangel and Wolverine went on an adventure to retrieve the mystical Crimson Dawn elixir. Around this period, the X-Men, while helping Wolverine to cope with the loss of his adamantium, also met one of Apocalypse's servants, the scribe known as Ozymandias, who warned them about the imminent return of Apocalypse.; ===Onslaught===; The X-Men received hints about a malicious named Onslaught for days. First, they found Juggernaut severely beaten in New Jersey. As Juggernaut came to his senses, he was terrified of the mysterious Onslaught. Next, one of Onslaught's minions, Post, attacked some of the X-Men so he could test them for his master. Onslaught first direct strike to the X-Men happened when he psychically attacked Phoenix, in an failed attempt to recruit her to his cause. Following the attack, Juggernaut went to the X-Mansion to offer his help against the villain. Suspicious of her own teammates, Phoenix worked alone with Juggernaut, probing into his memories. Horrified, she discovered Onslaught's true identity: Charles Xavier. Onslaught was the result of Professor X shutting Magneto's mind down months earlier; Magneto's anger combined with Xavier's repressed negativity resulted in his birth. Knocking the X-Men out at the X-Mansion, Onslaught turned his attentions to two powerful mutants he had interest in, Franklin Richards from the Fantastic Four, and Nate Grey, another traveler from the Age of Apocalypse who had alerted the Avengers about Onslaught.; Onslaught intended to unleash his fury over the human race, ordering Dark Beast to find him lackeys to achieve his goals. Dark Beast and his Dark Descendants hacked an army of Sentinels, setting them loose on New York City, to capture mutants and other superhumans. Soon after, the real Beast was found and freed by X-Factor. Meanwhile, Onslaught succeeded in kidnapping Franklin Richards, using his powers to create a citadel on Central Park, causing the most prominent superheroes of the world to unite against him. Concurrently, Rogue discovered the enigmatic Joseph, an amnesiac and rejuvenated Magneto, bringing him to the Avengers and ultimately to join the X-Men.; A first strike by the combined might of the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and the X-Men allowed Thor to free Xavier from Onslaught, who was left as pure psionic energy contained within special armor. No longer restricted by Xavier, Onslaught captured Nate Grey. As he assessed Grey's memories about the Age of Apocalypse, Onslaught realized that neither humans nor mutants deserved to rule the world, choosing to obliterate both races instead. Jean Grey telepathically aided the Hulk in destroying Onslaught's armor. Thor then proceeded to slash at the now unprotected psionic energy being and managed to damage him. Surmising mutants would only empower Onslaught, the non-mutant members of the Avengers and Fantastic Four successfully destroyed Onslaught by sacrificing their own lives. In actuality, Franklin Richards had used his reality-warping powers to transport them to a pocket universe. No one discovered the true fate of the heroes for a while, and in the meantime anti-mutant hysteria erupted into chaos as most of the Earth's super-heroes perished when battling a mutant menace. Professor Xavier chose to leave his X-Men, being taken into federal custody.; ===Operation: Zero Tolerance===; The mysterious Bastion took advantage of the Onslaught crisis to push his militant anti-mutant agenda to the United States government. His plans were so extreme that, surprisingly, Senator Kelly warned the X-Men about them. Bastion supported the presidential campaign of Graydon Creed, a mutant hater politician and founder of the Friends of Humanity. The X-Men Iceman and Cannonball infiltrated Creed's campaign staff to investigate Bastion's intentions. Unfortunately, Creed learned of their plan and had Iceman's father brutally beaten as a message. Iceman temporarily left the X-Men to take care of his father. Following Creed's murder, with the nations' approval, Prime Sentinels hunted down and eliminated mutants across the country under Operation: Zero Tolerance.; Meanwhile, the X-Men dealt with inner issues. First, they had to accept Joseph on the team, something difficult especially for Gambit, as Joseph and Rogue became close during the Onslaught crisis. Unfortunately, they also had to deal with their former teammate Havok, who had become a mutant terrorist and leader of a new iteration of the Brotherhood, executing actions that boosted anti-mutant sentiments even further.; On a Christmas night, some of the X-Men were inadvertently teleported by Gladiator to Shi'ar space. Assisted by Deathbird, the X-Men were successful in eliminating the Phalanx from the Shi'ar throne, but they had a long way back home. The remaining X-Men also had their share of missions, as they battled Candra to help Storm escape her rage, and allied themselves with Shang-Chi and Sebastian Shaw in hopes of retrieving a cure for the Legacy Virus in Hong Kong. As they returned home from Hong Kong with no success, they were imprisoned by Bastion's forces.; Iceman was the only active X-Man left free during the climax of Bastion's operation. In New York City, he managed to rescue Dr. Cecilia Reyes from termination by Prime Sentinels. Marrow and Israeli mutant Sabra joined the duo and took the confrontation to Bastion himself. Before the matter could worsen, Senator Kelly was brave enough to put an end to Bastion's insanity and S.H.I.E.L.D. arrested him.; The X-Men who were in space ended up prisoners of Nanny, except for Bishop, who was lost in space with Deathbird. Meanwhile, Psylocke and Archangel faced off the mysterious Maggott in New York. Nanny eventually brought Gambit before “Erik the Red”, who put Gambit on trial for past crimes. Erik revealed Gambit led the Marauders to the Morlocks during the massacre in the Alley. Repulsed, Gambit's teammates, Rogue included, abandoned him to die in Antarctica. Unbeknownst to the X-Men, Erik the Red was actually Magneto in disguise.; The captive X-Men also found their freedom, though Cyclops had a bomb planted in his chest as Bastion's last laugh. Fortunately, when returning home, Dr. Reyes helped save his life. Dr. Reyes, Marrow, and Maggott stayed at the X-Mansion and joined the X-Men. Cyclops and Phoenix left for Alaska so he could recover from his wounds. The new team faced adversities such as Sauron, the new Alpha Flight, and the Ru'Tai. Answering a distress call from Storm's village in Kenya, the X-Men were tricked by the Shadow King, who had Psylocke give him control over the astral plane, causing a telepathy “blackout”. Psylocke managed to trap him in her mind with the Crimson Dawn, though she could no longer use her telepathy in order to keep him prisoner.; ===Hunt for Xavier and Magneto War===; Xavier mysteriously vanished from his imprisonment. Following the disbanding of Excalibur, X-Men former members Shadowcat, Nightcrawler, and Colossus were kidnapped by an all-new formation of X-Men. Soon, the trio rejoined the real X-Men and identified the brand new X-Men had an impostor as their leader, who impersonated Professor Xavier. By this time, a new addition to the X-Men was Gambit, who was forgiven by his teammates and returned to the group.; With Xavier still missing, the X-Men tried to locate him, learning that his impersonator was the artificial intelligence Cerebro. Eventually, the X-Men found Professor X with the Brotherhood. Following a confrontation against Cerebro, the X-Men discovered that Xavier had joined forces with the Brotherhood after Cerebro hunted them. Cerebro also revealed it was conceived after Bastion cleansed the X-Mansion using nano-technology, providing the mutant locator with artificial intelligence. With the help of the Mannite Nina, Cerebro ceased to be.; Professor Xavier returned to his X-Men, believing his dream of peaceful coexistence was still worth the fight. Meanwhile, Magneto resurfaced once more, certain that mutants deserved to rule the world. He held the Earth hostage with the planet's electromagnetic field in his control, and the X-Men traveled to his base in Antarctica. Meanwhile, Joseph was revealed to be a clone created by Astra, being originally designed to kill his genetic template, Magneto. As the X-Men battled Magneto and his Acolytes, only with Joseph's sacrifice the world was saved from Magneto. Yet, the United Nations, acting preventively, granted Magneto the control of the island of Genosha.; ===The Twelve===; The X-Men were unintentionally transported to another dimension when Black Tom summoned them to help a possessed Juggernaut. Though they managed to free Juggernaut, they were left in outer space far away from home. The X-Men eventually found their way home after an adventure in the past, on Tarnax IV. Suspicious his X-Men might have been compromised due to their contact with the Skrulls, Xavier ultimately decided to disband the group.; Cyclops and Phoenix, however, returned to the X-Mansion and formed an unofficial group of X-Men to help the Mannites. During the mission, Wolverine was killed by a new mysterious Horseman of Death. As the X-Men gathered at the X-Mansion, Professor X investigated the body and realized “Wolverine” was the traitor he had been suspicious of, actually a Skrull who had replaced the real Wolverine. Other Skrulls were tricked by the X-Men, who learned about the secret of the "Twelve", a dozen mutants prophesied to defeat Apocalypse. Before the X-Men could learn more, the Horseman of Death interrupted them, revealing his identity: the real Wolverine.; The X-Men tried to round up the mutants listed as the Twelve according to one of Destiny's prophetic Diaries. However, with the help of Skrulls and his new Horseman, Apocalypse managed to capture the Twelve. He revealed his plan for ensuring the ascension of an Age of Apocalypse by absorbing the Twelve's powers and claiming the body of Nate Grey as his new vessel. However, Magneto's weakened powers broke the machine Apocalypse used for the power transfer, freeing the Twelve. As Nate Grey was still in danger of being possessed by Apocalypse, Cyclops sacrificed himself to save Grey. With Cyclops presumed dead and Apocalypse defeated, Cable decided to join the X-Men as his father's replacement. At the same time, Professor X left the X-Men and journeyed into space in order to mentor Cadre K, a group of mutant Skrulls.; ===Dream's End===; Following Apocalypse's defeat, the High Evolutionary, believing mutants to be a threat and being manipulated by Mister Sinister, extirped all mutants from their powers. His actions had a considerable impact on the Neo, a recluse clan of mutants who suffered major casualties. Eventually, the X-Men destroyed the Evolutionary's device and mutants had their powers returned. Six months later, after recruiting a new Thunderbird, the X-Men were attacked by the Neo, who blamed the X-Men and sought revenge. The Neo battled the X-Men on several different occasions. Around this time, both Professor X and Bishop rejoined the X-Men following a calamity when Earth was briefly turned into an intergalactic prison.; Amidst Senator Kelly's presidential campaign, Prosh sent Phoenix, Iceman, Juggernaut, Toad and Mystique on a journey through time to reach a greater understanding of mutant evolution. In the process, the group learned several secrets behind the past of the X-Men. At the end of their adventure, they were forced to battle the Stranger. As a consequence of this experience, Mystique decided to assassinate Kelly once again. Mystique had her new Brotherhood directly attack Senator Kelly, something that was prevented by a dying Pyro, who begged the Senator to stop the circle of violence.; However, Mystique's real intentions were more sinister; she had tampered with the Legacy Virus to release a strain that would only infect regular humans. On Muir Island, Moira had finally discovered a cure for the virus, but Mystique mortally wounded her. Mystique even stabbed Rogue to keep the cure hidden, yet Rogue recovered in time and subdued her. Professor Xavier was able to transfer Moira's knowledge of the virus to his mind before she seemingly died. While Cable aided his mentor, a human angry at Senator Kelly's change of stance on mutants shot and killed him, ironically executing Mystique's plans. Using Moira's data, Beast created the Legacy Virus cure. Unfortunately, a mutant power signature had to be activated for the cure to disperse around the world. Colossus secretly injected himself with the cure, sacrificing his life to save countless mutants.; Not accepting Cyclops had died, Jean Grey went on a journey with Cable to search for the truth. Cyclops was eventually found in the Middle East, having merged with Apocalypse and now struggling for control of his body. As Jean Grey exorcised Apocalypse from his mind, Cable used his Psimitar to cleave Apocalypse's final hold on his father. Cyclops returned to his friends more distant and self-conscious due to trauma from being possessed.; Meanwhile, fearful for the fate of Destiny's Diaries, Storm founded her own globetrotting squad of X-Treme X-Men no longer linked to Xavier's. As one of her recruits, she had Sage, the former secretary of the Hellfire Club. Tragically, this team soon suffered major losses, since their quest led them to cross paths with the superhuman Vargas, who killed Psylocke and left Beast critically injured.; With the Legacy Virus cured, the Genoshan Mutates were strong enough for Magneto to amass a superpowered army. Without enough X-Men around to stop him, Magneto was successful in capturing Xavier, whom he brought to Genosha on the eve of his planned attack on humanity. Cyclops and Wolverine infiltrated the island nation as Jean Grey recruited a team of X-Men composed of ex-Alpha Flight member Northstar, Wraith, Paulie Provenzano, Sunfire's sister Sunpyre, and mentally controlled Acolyte Joanna Cargill a.k.a. Frenzy. They were unexpectedly joined by Dazzler who had shown up seeking help with a crisis on Mojoworld. On Genosha, Magneto showed the newly formed X-Men Professor X's body, provoking Dazzler into using the crowd's roar in an attack against Magneto. His electromagnetic powers rebounded the photons of this attack at her, seemingly reducing her to ashes.; Magneto then faced all X-Men including Jean Grey's team in turn. Upon trying to tear the adamantium from Wolverine's bones, Magneto found out that he could not, as he had been under the control of Xavier for some time. It turned out that Dazzler death was a light show and Amelia was able to free Xavier and Dazzler assumed Xavier's position on the cross to which he was chained. The team managed to free Xavier, who telepathically stopped Magneto from ripping out Wolverine's adamantium a second time. Convinced there was no other way, Wolverine ultimately impaled Magneto with his claws, incapacitating him seemingly for good.; ===New X-Men===; A new nemesis for the X-Men arrived in the form of Cassandra Nova, Xavier's personal "mummudrai". In a factory in Ecuador, Nova activated a forgotten Master Mold using the Trask DNA, manufacturing immense wild Sentinels to attack Genosha. Magneto, incapacitated from Wolverine's attack, could do nothing but watch as the entire mutant nation and its sixteen million inhabitants were destroyed. One of the few survivors from the massacre found by the X-Men was Emma Frost, who had undergone a secondary mutation granting her a diamond form. Nova was brought into custody by Cyclops and Wolverine, but managed to break free, secretly switching bodies with Xavier. Pretending to be Xavier, she shot her previous body, where the real Xavier was trapped, to near-death. Nova's first action when posing as Xavier was to expose the residents at his institute as mutants on live television, revealing the X-Men's best-kept secret to the public.; As the X-Men went public, several mutant offices were opened all over the world as an extension of the X-Men, the X-Corporation. When one of its operatives, Risque, was killed in Hong Kong, the X-Men teamed up with her partner, Domino, to investigate. There, they learned of the existence of John Sublime's mutant organ harvesters, the U-Men. During the investigation, the X-Men freed an imprisoned Chinese mutant named Xorn, who Cyclops invited to join the X-Men.; The Xavier Institute now accepted a much larger student body and began having classes taught by X-Men. Meanwhile, Nova, in Xavier's body, left Earth for the Shi'ar Empire, but not before beating Beast into a coma after he learned her true identity and infecting the X-Men with nano-sentinels. Soon after Nova's departure, the X-Men were targeted by Sublime's U-Men at different locations. At the X-Mansion, they were fended off by Phoenix. Following the attack, Beast woke up from his coma, revealing Xavier's fate to his comrades. As the X-Men assessed Cassandra Nova's body, they learned her true origins and intentions.; Nova wreaked havoc in Shi'ar space and seized control of the powerful Imperial Guard. She then led her army to destroy the X-Men, who became severely debilitated by the nano-sentinel infection. During the conflict, Phoenix managed to save Xavier's consciousness, uploading it to Cerebra. Nova planned to use Cerebra do eliminate every mutant on the planet, in order to hurt Xavier. Her plans were foiled when, as soon as she accessed Cerebra, Xavier claimed his body back. Without a body, Nova was tricked by Emma Frost into becoming trapped inside the alien Stuff. Meanwhile, Xorn cured the X-Men of the nano-sentinel infection, effectively joining the Xavier's School staff. With the efforts of the X-Men, mutantkind was safe.; Meanwhile, the X-Treme X-Men kept having their fates directed by Destiny's Diaries. When Gambit was framed for having murdered Viceroy, an Australian crime-lord, the X-Men went to Sydney to investigate. They were assisted by Red Lotus and Teri Baltimore in clearing Gambit's name. Concurrently, Sage was attacked by Sebastian Shaw, who wished to have her back under his control being assisted by his illusionist partner, Lady Mastermind. Viceroy's children, the mutants Lifeguard and Slipstream joined the X-Men, helping them to fend Shaw and Lady Mastermind off.; Subsequently, the group was attacked by Shaitan in Madripoor, who used Gambit to erect a giant interdimensional tower as a beacon for his lord Khan to invade Earth. The X-Men managed to undermine Khan's plot by invading his tower and defeating him. Simultaneously, Rogue avenged Psylocke by slaying Vargas. Storm and her X-Men were left dreadfully injured from these events.; A squad of X-Men led by Nightcrawler dealt with mutant-related affairs all over the globe under Xavier's name. On one of their assignments, they saved a group of mutant outcasts in London attacked by human supremacist Mister Clean. Following this incident, ex-Generation X student Chamber joined the X-Men. Mister Clean was part of an extremist anti-mutant cult known as the Church of Humanity, whose next target was the X-Ranch, a mutant brothel. The only survivor of the attack, the prostitute Stacy X was rescued by and joined the X-Men. The X-Men then made their move against the church's Supreme Pontiff, but, before they could end the threat, the churchgoers escaped.; When Banshee formed X-Corps, a violent mutant police force in Europe, Nightcrawler's team decided to investigate his new initiative, since many of its operatives were former members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Banshee also was unscrupulous in using Martinique Wyngarde's mental powers to brainwash his prisoners and operatives. The matters escalated when Mystique was found to be behind the scenes, manipulating Banshee to her purposes with the Brotherhood's help, including Wyngarde. Ultimately, as the X-Men defeated her minions, Mystique slit Cassidy's throat and left him to bleed to death. Luckily, he managed to capture Mystique by releasing Abyss, a mutant who could open an other-dimensional portal, and was then taken to the hospital by his former Generation X students. The X-Men proceeded to take down Vanisher's mutant drug business using Worthington Industries.; Some of Banshee's previous X-Corps operatives joined X-Corporation Europe, headquartered in Paris. When Professor X received a tip about a “genetic emergency” in Paris Métro, he requested X-Corporation to investigate, as he examined Jean Grey to assess her growing power levels, a manifestation of the Phoenix Force. They were interrupted by Fantomex, who demanded asylum, claiming to be a mutant on the run with information about the Weapon Plus Project. In the tunnels, the X-Corporation team was massacred by Weapon XII. Professor X, Phoenix and Fantomex went to stop Weapon XII, who was killed by Fantomex. Jean Grey let Fantomex escape after she learned he was in fact “Weapon XIII”, a Weapon Plus subject, who manipulated the X-Men into helping him break free.; At the X-Mansion, Cyclops and Emma Frost began a psychic affair as a reaction to his matrimonial issues with Jean Grey, who kept assisting X-Corporation all over the world. Following the murder of mutant stylist Jumbo Carnation, one of Xavier's students, Quentin Quire, formed a mutant extremist gang, whose unscrupulous members made use of the power-enhancing drug Kick. The gang started a riot at the institute, detaining the X-Men. Quire was ultimately stopped by the Stepford sisters, at the cost of one of their own's life. Meanwhile, Xorn's Special Class, when camping, were attacked by the U-Men, who were violently killed by Xorn.; The Stepford sisters, disillusioned by the death of one of their own, told Jean Grey about her husband's affair with Frost. After being telepathically assaulted by Grey, Frost was found dead in her diamond form, splintered into thousands of pieces, followed by Cyclops running away from the institute. As Bishop and Sage investigated Frost's murder, Beast and Phoenix were able to revive her. The culprit was found, Esme, one of the Stepfords, who also had killed her sister Sophie. It was also revealed that a traitor inside the institute supplied the students with the Kick.; After Nova's attack, Nightcrawler's team investigated a mutant signal at Cassidy Keep. There, they were attacked by Black Tom, who had lost control of his mutation. The X-Men put him down with the help of Tom's partner, the Juggernaut, who joined the team by Xavier's invitation after being saved by Xavier's newest student, Sammy Paré. Meanwhile, a catatonic Havok, missing for months, was found by nurse Anne Ghazikhanian, who contacted the X-Men to meet him. Ghazikhanian moved to the X-Mansion with her son to care for Havok, befriending former Generation X member Husk, who had also joined the X-Men. Around this period, Northstar also joined the team and the school's staff.; Now based at the X-Mansion, Nightcrawler's group battled the ferocious Maximus Lobo and his hordes. Around this time, Polaris, rescued by X-Corporation from the ruins of Genosha, returned to the X-Men. With Havok's recovery and an unfortunate possession by an alternate version of himself, the X-Men were assisted by the dimension-hopping Exiles in defeating Lobo for good. Following threats included the Alpha Flight, the destruction of the Church of Humanity, Nightcrawler's father, Azazel, and his minions, and the Guthries' rival family, the Cabots.; After Storm and what was left of the X-Treme X-Men recovered, they got into a conflict with Xavier's School over the fate of an accused mutant killer, Jeffrey Garrett, who was granted asylum. As Storm's X-Men investigated the murders, they learned about the existence of mutant psychic predator, Elias Bogan, who possessed Emma Frost. With Bogan's disappearance, Storm was still left at odds with Xavier. The group faced a surprisingly live Reverend Stryker and his new bodyguard, Lady Deathstrike, who had kidnapped Kitty Pryde. As the X-Men and Stryker discovered Mount Haven's bizarre origin as a mutant-exclusive city, Stryker realized the consequences of his destructive actions and was buried with the city.; The X-Treme X-Men then investigated mutant-related incidents against mutants in Valle Soleada, a mutant-friendly neighborhood where Rogue and Gambit lived. The incidents were discovered to be funded by X-Corporation's Los Angeles branch, run by Sunspot. As the X-Men confronted Sunspot, they learn Elias Bogan had schemed the situation. Bogan made his first direct strike at the X-Men after Sage and Bishop orchestrated a plan to force him out of the shadows. Though Bogan escaped, the X-Men destroyed his base and resources, freeing Rachel Summers in the process, who had been his slave for a long period and rejoined the X-Men as the new Marvel Girl.; Meanwhile, Wolverine and Fantomex were joined by Cyclops to infiltrate the World, the Weapon Plus' ultimate facility. From there, the trio followed Weapon XV to a station in Earth Orbit, where Wolverine chose to destroy the station upon learning about his own past as Weapon X, John Sublime's plans for mutant extermination, and the fact that there was a traitor at the X-Mansion. As Cyclops and Fantomex escaped to Earth, Jean Grey went to space to rescue Wolverine. Meanwhile, Xorn pushed Magneto's theories on his Special Class, leading his student Dust to destroy Cerebra. Leaving Wolverine and Jean Grey on the remnants of Asteroid M and incapacitating the other X-Men, Xorn revealed himself to be Magneto in disguise as he captured Xavier.; Xorn destroyed the Institute and took over Manhattan with his new Brotherhood, leading to the death of thousands of humans. Moving closer to the Sun, Jean Grey was killed by Wolverine so she could unlock the power of the Phoenix. Cyclops led a last-ditch assault on Magneto and his allies, while Phoenix returned in time with Wolverine, Frost and Beast to defeat the mad mutant. During the confrontation, the X-Men questioned Xorn's identity as Magneto, which infuriated him. Knowing he was defeated, a desperate Xorn used his stored energy to give Phoenix a massive stroke. Wolverine decapitated Xorn in a berserker rage as Jean Grey died in the arms of her husband. Devastated by guilt and loss, Cyclops walked away from the X-Men, leading to a dark future. Decades later, Jean Grey was reborn as the Phoenix and used her powers to push Cyclops to embrace Emma Frost's proposal of re-opening the Xavier Institute, ensuring the survival of the X-Men and averting the future she had been born into.; ===ReLoaded===; As Cyclops and Frost ran a reformed Xavier Institute as their headmasters, Xavier left for Genosha to help the mutants who still lived on the ruined island. Here he encountered Magneto, who was revealed to have survived the destruction of Genosha and had spent months recuperating from his injuries, now revealing Xorn as an impostor. Meanwhile, Storm's team was sanctioned by the United Nations as a peacekeeping force responsible for policing relations between humans and mutants, the X.S.E., headquartered at the X-Mansion.; Cyclops, seeking to improve the public perception of mutants, decided to revamp the X-Men as a group of astonishing superheroes. Their first mission put them in conflict with the extraterrestrial threat of Ord. Concurrently, Genetech's lead researcher, Dr. Kavita Rao, publicly announced a mutant cure, secretly financed by Ord. As Beast investigated the efficacy of the cure, the X-Men learned Genetech used the body of an X-Man in their tests. This led Kitty Pryde to find Colossus alive within Genetech's Research Facility. With Colossus back on the team, the X-Men defeated Ord and destroyed Genetech's laboratories and their cure.; Then, the X-Men were attacked from within when the Danger Room's artificial intelligence broke free from her restraints, in an attempt to murder the X-Men and their students. The X-Men were tricked into freeing the A.I. from its command core, allowing her to take a new physical form as Danger. Danger, having years of experience in battling the X-Men as the Danger Room, easily outpowered them, deciding to go to Genosha to assassinate her former captor, Professor Charles Xavier. Though her plans were foiled by the X-Men, they were deeply disappointed in their mentor, who kept Danger captive for years, despite knowing she was sentient.; Though Jean Grey was dead, the same could not be said about the Phoenix. Without a host, the cosmic entity became a target for the Shi'ar, being shattered and driven insane by the attack. Weakened, it reanimated Jean Grey's deceased body at the X-Mansion. The X-Men, upon learning about the Phoenix's return, attempted to stop her mad quest for power. With Wolverine's help, Jean Grey managed to regain control over her body, while Emma Frost tricked the Phoenix into possessing her. Jean Grey was then allowed to successfully merge the Phoenix within her own self, ascending as the White Phoenix and permanently departing to the White Hot Room.; When Cerebra registered a mysterious mutant manifestation in China, Havok was assigned a team to investigate. The dysfunctional team found a different Xorn, with no control over his powers. Following some brief conflicts with Chinese super heroes, the X-Men managed to save Xorn, the twin-brother of the Xorn who had masqueraded as Magneto, who joined the team. Upon their return, the X-Men battled Exodus and his incarnation of the Brotherhood. Juggernaut and Exiles' former member Nocturne pretended to be members of the villainous team, secretly assisting the X-Men. The Brotherhood brutally ravaged the Xavier School, leading to the death of Sammy Paré. Xorn was crucial in fending them off, sucking them into the black hole within his helmet. Unfortunately, a trapped Nocturne also entered the void, followed by Juggernaut who attempted to rescue her. Feeling guilty for his actions, Xorn decided to leave the X-Men.; The X.S.E. investigated the Weaponeers of Al-Khalad as their first assignment. Simultaneously, when visiting the Braddock Manor, the group was targeted by the powerful superhero hunter known as the Fury. With much effort, the X-Men managed to combine their abilities and put the Fury down for good. However, the X.S.E. was soon ambushed by Viper, who was in seek of revenge for the X-Men's intervention on Khan's invasion months prior on Madripoor. As the X-Men broke free from Viper, Sage became aware that Sebastian Shaw and Courtney Ross had been assembling a new Hellfire Club.; Following a series of mutant-related murders in District X, the X.S.E. went to investigate, finding the young X-23 apparently guilty for the crimes. After X-23 was found innocent, she was taken to the Xavier Institute as a protégée of the X.S.E. Emma Frost, as a former member of the Hellfire Club, assisted the X.S.E. in uncovering the club's recent revival. The X-Men shockingly learned the club was acting as a beneficial organization, since Sage had secretly managed to place one of their own, Sunspot, as the club's new Lord Imperial, dismissing both Sebastian Shaw and Donald Pierce in the process. Sage left the X-Men to serve as Sunspot's assistant, hoping to prevent him from being corrupted by power.; Unexpectedly, Psylocke was resurrected in the exact spot where she was murdered. After the X.S.E. retrieved her, they were suddenly trapped and kidnapped by the Hauk'ka when investigating a distress call by Wolverine. Psylocke and X-23 joined forces to rescue the X-Men, who had been taken to the Savage Land. Having Marvel Girl under their control, the Hauk'ka forced Storm to cast an insanely powerful ice age upon the world. The X-Men teamed up with the Savage Land Mutates and the Hauk'ka, regretful for their actions, and liberated Storm. As soon as they returned to the X-Mansion, the X.S.E. members were attacked by Mojo and Spiral, but managed to defeat them with the help of Juggernaut and Nocturne, who had actually been sent to the Mojoverse. Around this period, Angel founded the Mutantes Sans Frontières, an international humanitarian organization that sought to improve living conditions of needy mutants.; Meanwhile, Havok's maladjusted team had to deal with the hallucinating attacks of the Golgotha. The group, left debilitated, was further undermined when Mystique infiltrated Gambit's student squad as the mysterious Foxx. For days, Mystique played with the X-Men's lives, especially Rogue's, as she attempted to seduce Gambit. Shockingly, when her identity became known, Mystique was offered to join the X-Men. However, Nightcrawler begged Mystique to refuse such an offer, helping her to escape instead. Soon next, when Havok's group went to investigate the emergence of non-human mutants in Niganda, they were joined by Storm and the Black Panther in foiling the Red Ghost's activities.; ===Decimation===; Following a psychotic breakdown, the Scarlet Witch attacked and nearly destroyed the Avengers. Magneto intervened and took her to Genosha, hoping to find help for her. Neither Professor Xavier nor Doctor Strange were successful in getting through to her however, prompting the Avengers and the X-Men to travel to Genosha to discuss the fate of the increasingly unstable Scarlet Witch, afraid that her vast powers might break reality. Worried that the heroes would decide to euthanize her, Quicksilver convinced her to use her powers to create a world where everyone present would have their deepest wishes fulfilled. Tapping into Xavier's telepathy, the Scarlet Witch altered reality, creating a world ruled by her family, where mutants were the dominant species.; While her alteration of reality appeared perfect, there were flaws in the Scarlet Witch's creation. Wolverine's deepest wish was to have his memories of his past restored, but this would mean that he also remembered the world as it had been before the alteration. Additionally, the young mutant Layla Miller also found herself remembering the real world and had the ability to remind others. With her help, the X-Men and the other heroes remembered their past lives. The enlightened heroes commenced an assault on Magneto's Genoshan headquarters, believing him responsible, and tried to find the missing Professor Xavier. Quicksilver's involvement was revealed, leading Magneto to nearly kill him. Angry at how her mutant heritage and her father placing his species before his children continually ruined their family, the Scarlet Witch uttered three words as she restored the reality to what it used to be: "No More Mutants."; The world seemingly returned to what it was, with those awakened by Miller still remembering the Scarlet Witch's twisted reality. However, the mutant population was drastically reduced from millions down to approximately two hundred, an event that became known as the M-Day. Students at the Xavier Institute, inhabitants of District X, X-Corporation operatives and major mutant figures such as Iceman, Polaris, Magneto, Quicksilver, the Blob, Danielle Moonstar, Jubilee and many others were depowered. Tragically, there were several other consequences. Professor Xavier's whereabouts were unknown, and the crisis led to X-Corporation being shut down following a bombing in Paris. Meanwhile, the Xavier Institute became a sanctuary to surviving powered mutants, who became known as the 198. At a time when the X-Men were needed the most, Storm decided to stay in Africa to aid mutants in need of help and the X.S.E. ceased to be. The M-Day also was the catalyst for the reformulation of X-Factor Investigations and the return of the British mutant group Excalibur. The Scarlet Witch's spell not only deactivated thousands, but also completely blocked the emergence of new mutants, leaving mutantkind hurtling towards extinction.; With mutantkind severely compromised and weakened, mutant-hating groups saw an opportunity to eradicate mutants for good. Afraid of violence breaking out, Val Cooper dispatched Sentinel Squad O*N*E to protect the swelling population at the X-Mansion. The X-Men found themselves under the constant surveillance of sentinels. A group of rabid mutant haters, the Sapien League, were the first to attack the Xavier Institute, intending to kill the remaining mutants. When their leader, the Leper Queen, attempted to murder Iceman, he managed to counter her attack, learning in the process he had not truly been depowered. A depowered Polaris then decided to leave the X-Men, accompanied by Havok, who wished to look after her. Unbeknownst to them, Apocalypse had been awakened from his slumber after M-Day and captured Polaris.; Apocalypse transformed Polaris, Sunfire and Gazer into his new horsemen, respectively Pestilence, Famine and War. His first move was to land his sphynx ship on the X-Mansion, offering salvation to the mutants succumbed to misery due to the M-Day. Apocalypse planned to proportionally reduce the human population in order to even out the effects of M-Day on mutantkind by unleashing a deadly plague. Many of the 198 sided with Apocalypse, attacking the O*N*E Sentinels. The X-Men, heavily outnumbered, were surprisingly assisted by Ozymandias, who decided to betray his own master. During the battle, Apocalypse revealed his last horseman, Death, to be Gambit, who had sought out Apocalypse under Mystique's machinations following his recent relationship problems with Rogue. With the X-Men temporarily subdued, Apocalypse announced his objectives at the United Nations Headquarters. Eventually, the X-Men, assisted by the O*N*E and Sunfire, defeated Apocalypse, who managed to escape. Though Polaris, now repowered, was rehabilitated and rejoined the X-Men, Gambit and Sunfire abandoned their former friends, allying themselves with Mister Sinister.; When the X-Men started being haunted at the X-Mansion with visions of their pasts, Cyclops and Marvel Girl were kidnapped by a mysterious attacker. During the investigation, the X-Men witnessed the tragic death of Banshee and were led to unravel the truth behind Moira's secret X-Men, who had perished on Krakoa years before. The assailant was revealed to be Vulcan, who had been revived by the energies unleashed on M-Day and returned to seek revenge. Professor Xavier intervened and revealed that he too had lost his powers after M-Day. After Professor X shared Vulcan's true origins as Cyclops' lost brother, who had his life ruined by Shi'ar Emperor D'ken, Vulcan departed to space aiming at destroying the Shi'ar Empire. On Earth, Professor X's already eroded relationship with his X-Men became irreparably damaged.; Since M-Day had a massive impact on the Xavier Institute student body, lowering their numbers from hundreds to around two dozen mutants, Emma Frost formed a group of New X-Men as a response. This coincided with the return of Reverend Stryker and his Purifiers. Receiving intel from Nimrod, the Purifiers attacked the Xavier Institute, murdering several teenagers, both mutants and those recently de-powered. The New X-Man Elixir killed Stryker with his newly developed death-touch. As the New X-Men learned about Nimrod's involvement, they joined forces with Forge to destroy him. They were partially successful as they managed to send Nimrod back to the past.; The X-Men also struggled with other threats unrelated to M-Day. With the X.S.E. disbanded, its former members remained at the X-Mansion. Soon after M-Day, Marvel Girl and her teammates found themselves battling the Shi'ar Death Commandos, sent to Earth to eradicate the Grey family and prevent the ascension of the Phoenix within their bloodline. As Marvel Girl mourned the death of her family, the mysterious conditions behind Psylocke's resurrection were revealed. She was returned by her brother, Jamie Braddock, to battle a cosmic threat known as the First Fallen. The X-Men were whisked away to the First Fallen's reality to combat him, returning victorious, though at the apparent cost of Jamie's life. Soon after, the X-Men went to Kenya to assist Storm in overpowering the vicious Colonel Shetani. Following his defeat, Storm decided to stay in Africa, traveling to Wakanda to meet the Black Panther. Meanwhile, the X-Men suffered another loss when Psylocke, while confronting the Shadow King – recently imprisoned by the new Excalibur – was forcibly ripped from the timestream, covertly joining the Exiles.; As the Superhuman Registration Act passed, Iron Man attempted to recruit the X-Men to his side in the emerging superhuman civil war. The X-Men turned him down, preferring to remain neutral. The registration act would affect the 198, nevertheless. As O*N*E, being aligned with Iron Man, kept the 198 prisoners, X-Force, having sided with Captain America, decided to liberate them. While Bishop worked with O*N*E in recapturing the fugitive 198, Cyclops and the X-Men opted to defend them. When all parts realized they faced a common enemy in General Lazer, they joined forces to defeat him. As a consequence, the 198 were freed and Bishop left the X-Men. Amidst many recent conflicts, the wedding of Storm and the Black Panther represented a brief moment of truce and peace.; ===Blinded by the Light===; Fearing for the fate of the Shi'ar Empire and his beloved Lilandra, Professor X recruited a team of X-Men to stop Vulcan's quest for vengeance. For his team, he chose James Proudstar, now going by Warpath, Marvel Girl, Nightcrawler, Havok, Polaris, and a recently returned Darwin. During the journey, the Shi'ar sent the slave warrior Korvus, who wielded the Blade of the Phoenix, to assassinate Marvel Girl. Though Korvus defected and joined the X-Men in their mission, Xavier was captured. As the X-Men were found by the Starjammers, Darwin learned not only that Vulcan had resurrected Emperor D'ken, but also had arranged to marry D'ken's sister, Deathbird. During the wedding, Vulcan killed D'ken and proclaimed himself the new emperor of the Shi'ar Empire, murdered his own father, Corsair, and also threw Xavier into the M'kraan Crystal, unintentionally restoring his telepathic powers. As Lilandra sent most of the X-Men back to Earth, Havok, Polaris, and Marvel Girl stayed in space, joining the Starjammers to lead a resistance against emperor Vulcan and his wife.; On Earth, the New X-Men were attacked by X-23's former oppressors, the Facility, who tortured and captured Mercury to create mutant-hunting monsters known as Predators X. Soon after that, the X-Men and the New X-Men were imprisoned in Limbo by Belasco, who desired to have Illyana Rasputin back. Illyana, resurrected as the soulless Darkchylde by Belasco, led the remaining students at Xavier's to destroy her former abuser. With Belasco dead, Illyana sent her former friends back to Earth, choosing to remain in Limbo as its new ruler.; Unexpectedly, long-time foe Sabretooth arrived at the Xavier Institute asking for sanctuary, on the run from the deadly Children of the Vault, artificially evolved post-humans who became active after M-Day. The Children of the Vault, aiming to eliminate Sabretooth to keep their existence secret, sent Northstar and Aurora to ambush the Xavier Institute, though they were fended off with the help of Cable. Rogue was then assigned a team to stop the Children of the Vault, recruiting Mystique, Iceman, Cannonball, and Cable for her mission. Lady Mastermind and Karima Shapandar, an Omega Sentinel, who had been recently rescued by Rogue from an illegal mental institution, also joined the group. The last member was Sabretooth himself. Rogue's team was successful in destroying the Children of the Vault before they could reach the Xavier's. The new X-Men group then decided to leave the institute and follow their own agenda. Their first course of action was to rehabilitate Northstar and Aurora from their brainwashing in a S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier. There, the X-Men were confronted by Exodus' new Acolytes. As Exodus realized the enormous consequences of the M-Day, he ceased his attack against other mutants and retreated.; Rogue's next objective was to track Lady Mastermind's and Omega Sentinel's captor, a man known as Pandemic, who had a special interest in Rogue's replicating powers. Left powerless by Sabretooth, he still managed to infect Rogue with a viral agent that rendered her powers more lethal than ever, leaving her on the brink of death. Cable sought to treat Rogue on his island nation Providence. Unfortunately, the island was attacked by the Hecatomb, a Shi'ar mind devouring bomb that followed Urizen, a mummudrai who had possessed Lady Mastermind. The Hecatomb annihilated Providence, but was ultimately deactivated by Rogue, who absorbed all of its minds. The attack allowed Sabretooth to furtively escape, and Rogue was left in critical condition, both physically and mentally.; At Mystique's house, other X-Men were assembled to stabilize Rogue's condition. There, they were ambushed by Mister Sinister's Marauders, who had been targeting any being with knowledge about the future, including Rogue, who had read Destiny's Diaries. Mystique, Lady Mastermind and Omega Sentinel (recently possessed by Malice) revealed themselves to be Marauders, who now heavily outnumbered the X-Men. With the X-Men defeated, Rogue was kidnapped. On Providence, Cable was targeted by the Marauders Gambit and Sunfire. Moreover, the Acolytes, now working under Mister Sinister, attacked the X-Mansion to collect Destiny's Diaries and kill the precognitive mutant Blindfold, but failed in their mission. The X-Men, though massively fractured by the attacks, were able to survive and re-group, thirsty for revenge against the Marauders.; When Caliban was brutally assaulted by Masque and his Morlocks, he asked for help at the X-Mansion, leading Storm to rejoin the X-Men. Leading a team comprising Warpath, ex-Starjammer Hepzibah and Caliban, Storm infiltrated the sewers of Manhattan to stop Masque's extremist terrorist attacks. The mission led them to learn about the visions of the late Morlock Qwerty. Concurrently, Xavier and Nightcrawler learned that Magneto, de-powered believed dead after being caught in an exploding S.H.I.E.L.D. helicopter, was alive and had a role to play in the upcoming future of mutantkind.; Meanwhile, Emma Frost's trick on Cassandra Nova years before proved to have nefarious consequences. Nova had planted a suggestion on Frost's mind that grew to a more robust mind control. Under Nova's influence, Frost telepathically tormented the X-Men with a series of illusions related to the Hellfire Club, ultimately turning Cyclops' powers off. Kitty Pryde was the most affected victim, since Frost forced her to believe the alien Stuff, where Nova was trapped, was actually a child she had had with Colossus. Before Nova could achieve her goal of breaking free from Stuff's body, S.W.O.R.D.'s director Abigail Brand abducted the X-Men, Danger and Ord to her spaceship, where Frost was out of Nova's reach.; Brand, in need of super heroes, explained that Ord's leader, Lord Kruun of the Breakworld, intended to eliminate Earth due to a prophecy that claimed Colossus would destroy the Breakworld, justifying Ord's former involvement with Genetech. Upon reaching the Breakworld, the X-Men were relentlessly attacked, being scattered all over the alien planet. Kitty Pryde, Colossus, Wolverine and new recruit Armor were the most afflicted by the attacks. Pryde and Colossus were met and helped by Aghanne, the leader of the Breakworlder revolution. Meanwhile, Cyclops and Frost were ambushed by Danger. Frost managed to convince Danger to aid the X-Men, while Beast and Brand learned Kruun had a gigantic missile aimed at Earth. Cyclops, Wolverine and Armor deceived Kruun's forces, by being intentionally captured. Another deception involved Cyclops pretending to have lost his powers, which guaranteed him the opportunity to incapacitate Kruun. With Kruun accounted for, Pryde phased into the missile in order to disable it, only to discover it was actually a giant bullet. The bullet was ultimately fired at Earth with Pryde trapped inside it. On the Breakworld, the X-Men learned Aghanne had fabricated the prophecy in order to destroy the Breakworld. She was ultimately killed by her own rage, failing to destroy her home. Meanwhile, the X-Men and Earth's other heroes were not able to detain the bullet. In the last moment, Kitty Pryde used her powers to phase the bullet through Earth, effectively preventing the planet's destruction. However, the bullet kept moving in a straight line; Kitty Pryde was lost in outer space.; ===The Birth of Hope===; When the first mutant birth since M-Day occurred, Cerebra registered a powerful spike in Cooperstown, Alaska. The X-Men rushed to the location, only to find that the Marauders and the Purifiers had beaten them to the punch, and that the child was nowhere to be found. As the X-Men tracked the Acolytes to learn the location of Mister Sinister and the Marauders hideout, Rictor from X-Factor Investigations infiltrated the Purifiers. The birth of the mutant child had spawned two alternate futures that contained mutants. Jamie Madrox sent two dupes to investigate, one of whom was accompanied by Layla Miller. The X-Men arrived at Mister Sinister's facility in Antarctica, while Rictor, aided by the New X-Men, discovered the Purifiers were working with Lady Deathstrike and her Reavers. Neither the Marauders, the Acolytes, the Purifiers nor the Reavers had the baby. The X-Men and the New X-Men were defeated by their enemies, partially because, during their missions, the O*N*E Sentinels were hijacked by an unknown assailant, destroying the X-Mansion and cutting off telepathic communication. However, before the X-Men escaped from the Marauders, Gambit revealed to Wolverine the messiah baby's whereabouts: she was in Cable's possession.; In order to retrieve the baby from Cable, Cyclops assigned to Wolverine the command of a new X-Force, a strike force team composed of tracker-killers. The Reavers managed to find Cable before the X-Men could, and attempted to eliminate him and the baby. The conflict was interrupted by X-Force, who rescued Cable and the baby, at the cost of Caliban's life. Distrustful, Cable stole X-Force's Blackbird, once again running loose with the baby by himself. In one of the spawned futures, Madrox and Miller found a world where mutants had been saved by the messiah child but had been outlawed by the government and confined to internment camps. In a camp, they met a young Bishop, who informed them the messiah child had killed a million humans, causing mutantkind to be outlawed. The young Bishop ultimately revealed that his deepest wish was to kill the messiah to prevent the suffering he and his family had endured. Bishop was revealed to be the traitor that had destroyed the X-Mansion, all in his quest to kill the child. Bishop found Cable in Forge's Eagle Plaza, easily subduing him and having the baby at his mercy.; Before Bishop could take any action, he was ambushed by the Marauders, who rescued the baby and took her back to their hideout on Muir Island. The X-Men pursued them, unaware of Bishop's betrayal. At the same time, Cable sought help from Professor Xavier, and the duo also went to Muir Island. As a deadly fight ensued, Mystique and Gambit revealed their true colors. Mystique had only joined the Marauders to rescue Rogue and had brought Gambit over to her side. After assassinating Mister Sinister and forcing the baby to touch Rogue, Mystique restored her daughter's mind and body, as Destiny had predicted. Meanwhile, a Predator X attacked Xavier's School, but before it could claim any kill, it was teleported to Muir Island by the New X-Man Pixie. The Predator surprised the Marauders enough to allow the X-Men to turn the tide and win the battle. Despite being torn over whether or not to trust his son, Cyclops decided to hand the child over to him, so that Cable could raise her in the future, where she would be safe from all those who would seek to use or eliminate her. As Cable departed, Bishop attempted a last shot against the child, accidentally hitting Xavier in the head. With Xavier dead and the X-Mansion destroyed, Cyclops disbanded the X-Men.; Professor Xavier's lifeless body was claimed by the Acolytes, who managed to revive him with the help of Magneto. Having his memories severely affected by his condition, Xavier went on a journey of self-discovery, keeping his revival a secret from the other X-Men. Though the X-Men were disbanded, Cyclops kept protecting what was left of mutantkind by secretly carrying on with the X-Force initiative, targeting members of the mutant-hating Human Council, formed by Bastion, for assassination. He also tasked Wolverine with putting Mystique down for her betrayal. Meanwhile, Donald Pierce saw the X-Men's withdrawal as an opportunity to impersonate Cyclops and create his own team of X-Men. Pierce manipulated his team into attacking the former New Mutants, but was ultimately unmasked and arrested for his crimes, unfortunately at the cost of Wolf Cub's life.; ===San Francisco X===; Dispersed all over the world, the former X-Men enjoyed their precious moments of calm after the storm. When Cyclops and Emma Frost, after a period of vacation in the Savage Land, went to San Francisco to meet other X-Men who had suddenly fallen out of contact, they witnessed odd events happening there. Eventually, they learned Martinique Wyngarde was behind a mental trap that deceived people into thinking they lived in a hippie community. When Cyclops and Frost confronted Wyngarde, they were forced to fight their fellow X-Men, brainwashed by her powers. As the X-Men subdued the villainess, they coincidentally rescued the mayor of the city, Sadie Sinclair, who offered the X-Men a safe haven in San Francisco. Cyclops then contacted Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Colossus, who had just fought Omega Red and the Red Room in Russia, to join them.; On the outskirts of the city, the X-Men reestablished and built the X-Center, funded by Angel's Mutantes Sans Frontières and politically promoted by Mayor Sinclair. In San Francisco, the X-Men experienced far greater local acceptance and veneration than they were used to. Under this new status quo, the team investigated an art installation where Sentinels were exhibited for mutant affectionate admirers. Unexpectedly, the X-Men were intercepted by an artificially repowered Magneto, a mere distraction to allow the High Evolutionary to access the Dreaming Celestial without the X-Men's interference. After Magneto and the Evolutionary vanished, Emma Frost helped Cyclops sent a telepathic message to all mutants around the world stating that they now had a place they could call home in San Francisco, reviving the X-Men and Xavier's dream once again.; Collaborating with the SFPD and with Abigail Brand, the X-Men investigated bizarre mutant-related murders. Their inspection led them to places such as Chaparanga Beach and the Chinese hidden mutant city of Tian, where they learned both about the existence of inter-dimensional portals known as Ghost Boxes and of fabricated artificial mutants. The X-Men found out Forge, left insane after Bishop's attack and now based at Wundagore Mountain, was behind the bizarre series of events. With S.W.O.R.D.'s assistance, the X-Men defeated Forge, his artificial mutants and his dangerous Ghost Boxes. Next, the X-Men teamed up with Brand's S.W.O.R.D. again to ward off a deformed madman known as Kaga, who made attacks on the X-Men weaponizing deceased mutants and the Brood as organic Sentinels. Later on, the X-Men traveled to the village of Karere in Mbangawi, where mutant births were reported. The children were revealed to actually be Warpies, who emerged due to the presence of an alternate Jim Jaspers. Jaspers was followed by Furies from his reality. Helped by Doctor Crocodile, the X-Men expelled the Furies back to their realities, while Jaspers was murdered by Doctor Crocodile, ceasing his warping effects on the newborns.; Though the X-Men benefited from the public acceptance in general – something exemplified by their efforts to save San Francisco from the Skrull invasion –, they still struggled with anti-mutant hate. After Pixie was brutalized by the Hellfire Cult, the X-Men, having Karma as their latest addition, fought back. They learned that former Hellion Empath led the Hellfire Cult, detaining him after Pixie dealt the ultimate blow against her aggressor. With the threat averted, Pixie joined the X-Men.; After the Skrull invasion of Earth, Norman Osborn was granted full control over S.H.I.E.L.D. and the government's superhuman programs. He invited Emma Frost to join his Cabal and represent mutants in his dark schemes. Frost found in Namor, the Sub-Mariner, an ally inside Osborn's Cabal. With his help, she captured Sebastian Shaw, although Namor believed Shaw to have perished, actually a ruse orchestrated by Frost. Cyclops' and Frost's secrets, about the X-Force and the Cabal, proved to damage their relationship. In San Francisco, Frost assisted Colossus in battling a ghost from his past, the Tattooed Man. Meanwhile, Beast followed his own agenda, recruiting Doctor Nemesis, Madison Jeffries, Dr. Yuriko Takiguchi, and Dr. Kavita Rao for his own X-Men science team, the X-Club, to research ways of reverting M-Day.; Meanwhile, the X-Men were unexpectedly attacked by Madelyne Pryor and her Sisterhood. Pryor was behind the Hellfire Cult and targeted the X-Men both in seek of revenge for being abandoned and of being completely resurrected in a physical body. She retrieved Psylocke from the multiverse, resurrecting her as a test for Pryor's own resurrection ritual. Brainwashed by Pryor, Psylocke assisted the Sisterhood in infiltrating the X-Center and retrieving a beacon for Jean Grey's body. On the ruins of the X-Mansion, with the help of Domino, the X-Men tricked Pryor into being disincorporated. In San Francisco, Psylocke overcame her brainwashing and rejoined the X-Men.; Feeling the presence of her Soulsword within the X-Man Nightcrawler, Illyana Rasputin invaded the X-Center from Limbo with hopes of recovering part of her soul. While Illyana was successful in retrieving her Soulsword from the X-Men, Belasco's daughter, Witchfire, seized control of Limbo intending to liberate the Elder Gods from their enclosure. Cyclops dispatched an X-Men team led by Colossus to bring Illyana back. On Limbo, most of the X-Men were controlled by Witchfire. Joining forces with the X-Men, Illyana reconquered her rule over Limbo as Witchfire escaped. As Magik, Illyana assembled her former teammates from the New Mutants, Cannonball, Sunspot, and Magma as a new group of X-Men to save Karma and Dani Moonstar, who also joined the team. Karma and Moonstar had been subdued by a recently resurrected Legion, who was ultimately defeated and captured by the X-Men.; ===Utopia, the Mutant Nation===; Simon Trask, leader of the Humanity Now! coalition, leaked to the press the involvement of mutants in the Cooperstown massacre, inciting an anti-mutant sentiment against the X-Men. With the Proposition X act, he tried regulate mutant births in San Francisco. When Humanity Now! went on a march for their proposition, they were met by the mutant community led by Beast in San Francisco. The city erupted into a riot, and some mutants, including Beast, were arrested by the SFPD. Cyclops' X-Men and Norman Osborn's Avengers intervened in the violent protests. As the two groups clashed, Osborn revealed to the media he was backed by Professor Charles Xavier, who was secretly Mystique in disguise. Cyclops and his X-Men retreated back to the X-Center, while, on the Alcatraz Prison, Beast learned Xavier's true condition as Osborn's prisoner. Amidst this incident, Cyclops welcomed Rogue back to the X-Men, though she came in the unwelcome company of Gambit and Danger. Rogue and her allies were tasked with protecting civilian lives in San Francisco, being assisted by Ariel under Cyclops' orders to fight Osborn's Avengers. Osborn dispatched a seemingly traitorous Frost, now in charge of his own team of Osborn-approved X-Men, to control the mutant rioters, led by Frost's former student, Hellion.; With the rioters arrested, Frost learned that Beast and Xavier were being tortured by Dark Beast, who, under Osborn's orders, used the Omega Machine to boost Omega's powers. In addition to this, another threat came in the form of Trask, who had infected the Humanity Now! coalition members, transforming them into biomechanical sentinels. Trask's human sentinels found themselves in direct conflict with Osborn's X-Men. Meanwhile, Cyclops sent the X-Club to assess the remains of Asteroid M, which had crashed in the San Francisco Bay. As Wolverine and his X-Force freed the prisoners on Alcatraz, Frost revealed her true allegiances to Cyclops' X-Men, bringing Namor with her. With the ruins of Asteroid M revitalized by the X-Club, Cyclops relocated the X-Men to the newly christened Utopia, declaring it sovereign territory outside of Osborn's jurisdiction Betrayed by Frost and Namor, Osborn led his Avengers to Utopia. Cyclops, backed by a massive gathering of mutants, was successful in fending Osborn off, though at the cost of Frost's mind being infected by the Void after she mentally attacked the Avenger know as Sentry, permanently trapping her in her diamond form.; Though free from Osborn, the X-Men immediately faced unfortunate surprises, such as the sudden death of Dr. Takiguchi and the arrival of Magneto to his former base. Praising Cyclops for reuniting the mutant race on Utopia following their tragic decimation, Magneto revealed his mutant powers had been restored with the help of the High Evolutionary and offered his assistance to the X-Men. Though suspicious, the X-Men had no choice but to accept Magneto back into their ranks when the ex-Marauder Scalphunter, blackmailed by the villain Lobe, unleashed from a plane a macabre cargo: a pack of Predators X. With Magneto's help, the X-Men destroyed the Predators X and incarcerated Scalphunter on Utopia. Meanwhile, one of the X-Men's young protégés, Bling!, was kidnapped from Utopia by Emplate. Rogue, after defeating the villain and rescuing Bling!, decided to act as a guide for the youngest generation of X-Men.; Utopia was suddenly attacked by a horde of undead mutants, many of them being former allies or foes of the X-Men. Selene was behind the bizarre resurrections using the Transmode Virus, as part of a ritual to channel the souls of deceased mutants to empower her to godhood. She led her Inner Circle to Genosha in order to raise millions of mutants from dead and place them under her control. On Utopia, the deceased member of the New Mutants, Cypher, alongside the original Hellions, managed to break the island's defenses and allow the invasion of Selene's lackeys. Meanwhile, Blindfold was alerted by a resurrected Destiny about a dire situation on Muir Island. Cyclops dispatched a team led by Nightcrawler to Muir Island, comprising Rogue, Magneto, Psylocke, Colossus, Husk, Trance and Blindfold. When Destiny was finally found, the X-Men learned she had been tricked by a resurrected Proteus, who was hidden inside her body. Since most of the X-Men were possessed by Proteus, Rogue and Magneto had to combat their own teammates. As Rogue freed her friends from Proteus' control, Magneto succeeded in destroying him.; On Utopia, Cypher personally attacked his former teammates, brutally maiming Magma. Unexpectedly, however, he came into contact with Warlock, who disrupted Selene's influence. Before Cypher could totally break free from his brainwashing, the Hellions captured him. After defeating them, Magik purged Cypher from his infection using her Soulsword. Both Cypher and Warlock joined Cannonball's X-Men squad. As soon as the X-Men realized millions of Genoshan mutants had been resurrected, Selene and her Inner Circle attacked Utopia personally, killing some of its residents and capturing Warpath. X-Force followed Selene to Genosha, now renamed “Necrosha”, where she completed her ritual and ascended as a goddess. Utilizing an Apache ritual to allow X-Force to strike at the all-powerful Selene, Warpath managed to deal the killing blow, saving the world from Selene's evil.; Following this series of conflicts, the X-Men could finally attend to the Void sliver trapped inside Frost's mind. With Professor X's help, Cyclops entered Frost's mind. The Void transferred itself into Cyclops's mind, but with Frost's assistance, and using what he had learned over the years from Jean Grey, Cyclops trapped the sliver of what Xavier considered to be the evil incarnate within a psychic prison. Meanwhile, Magneto made a deal with Namor to build a new Atlantean city underneath Utopia, providing it support in order to prevent it from sinking, as well as securing a mutually beneficial alliance with Atlantis. Unable to adjust to life on Utopia under Cyclops' command after being tortured, and realizing Magneto was gaining influence on the island, Beast decided to leave the X-Men.; As Cyclops learned about the existence of a surviving Predator X in New York City, a team went to investigate. Joined by Fantomex and his partner E.V.A., the X-Men found out Lobe and his New U-Men were the schemers behind the Predator X attack on Utopia. Though Lobe escaped, the X-Men learned of his ties with John Sublime. Meanwhile, in San Francisco, Magneto realized Cyclops and the X-Men still did not trust him. To remedy that, he used his magnetic powers to rescue Kitty Pryde from the Breakworld's giant bullet, dragging it back to Earth, leaving Magneto comatose from the effort. However, as she returned, Pryde was trapped in her intangible form and was kept in a containment cell.; ===The Return of Hope===; Cable and the first mutant born after M-Day, now a teenage girl called Hope, finally managed to return to the present. As they arrived at the ruins of the X-Mansion, they were immediately attacked by the Right, under orders of Bastion's Human Council. As Cerebra registered Cable's signature, Cyclops led his alpha team of X-Men to assist him. The X-Men arrived just in time to confront the Sapien League, who were also after Cable and Hope under Bastion's orders. The brutality shown by Wolverine, X-23 and Archangel when dealing with the Sapiens League compromised X-Force's secret existence to the other X-Men.; Even with the X-Men's trust of Cyclops shaken by this revelation, he managed to get them to agree to table their anger and coordinated several missions to ensure Hope's survival. He sent Cannonball's team to deal with Cameron Hodge. Meanwhile, the alpha team of X-Men found Cable and Hope hiding in a motel, now the target of William Stryker's Purifiers. Once again, Cable and Hope managed to escape their assailants. The X-Men lost their teleporter Magik when the Purifiers successfully banished her to Limbo. The Purifiers were then obliterated by Archangel. Meanwhile, Cannonball's team were dealt a brutal defeat by Hodge. Their survival was only possible due to Warlock killing Hodge and several members of the Right. To pursue Cable, the X-Men alpha team was joined by Rogue and Ariel. At the cost of Ariel's life, Cable and Hope met the X-Men. Escorted by Rogue and Nightcrawler, Hope started a journey across the country to reach Utopia as the rest of the X-Men and Cable fought the Human Council forces. In Las Vegas, the trio of runaways were met by Bastion himself, who knocked Rogue out and fatally wounded Nightcrawler. Just before succumbing to his injuries, Nightcrawler teleported Hope to Utopia.; In order to rescue Magik, Cannonball led a team to Limbo, transported by Pixie. On Utopia, the X-Men mourned Nightcrawler while preparing to face Bastion. The X-Men's last teleporter, Vanisher, was unexpectedly assassinated by Stephen Lang. Meanwhile, Donald Pierce, who had infiltrated Utopia, destroyed the X-Men's Blackbirds. With no teleporters or vehicles, the X-Men were trapped on Utopia. Using a series of towers around Utopia, Bastion cast an energy dome to prevent the X-Men from leaving the San Francisco Bay. On the Golden Gate, Bastion opened a dimensional portal from the future, allowing Nimrod Sentinels access to the present. Thousands of Nimrods coming out of the portal proved to be unbeatable adversaries. Using Cable's time-travel technology, Cyclops decided to send X-Force to the future to destroy the Nimrod factory, knowing this would be a one-way trip.; As the X-Men struggled to contain the Nimrods, Cyclops asked Professor X to work with Legion to help. As Legion kept the Nimrods at bay with his vast powers, X-Force reached the Master Mold responsible for creating the Nimrods in the future. The X-Men were then joined by a recovered Magneto in fending the Nimrods off. As Cypher deactivated the Master Mold, the Nimrods stopped their invasion. However, X-Force had no way back to the present. As Cable allowed his body to be taken by the Techno-Organic Virus, he was able to transport X-Force through Bastion's portal. At the cost of his own life, Cable saved X-Force. Tragically, the X-Men still had to fight a final foe, Bastion himself. Tormented by the death of the man who raised her, Hope's mutant gift finally activated in earnest, allowing her to mimic the powers of all the X-Men present which she used to disintegrate Bastion and his dome. In Limbo, Cannonball's team rescued Magik, having to oppose N'astirh and a corrupted Gambit in the process. Following Cable's funeral, the world would change drastically for the X-Men. Wolverine decided to keep X-Force operating secretly, despite Cyclops' orders to cease operations. X-23 left the X-Men and Utopia, being mentored by Gambit in her solo adventures. Beast also left again after briefly returning due to Nightcrawler's funeral. And, most crucially, with the return of Hope, five new mutants were registered on Cerebra. With the help of the X-Men, Hope raced around the world to recruit the recently emerged mutants. Under her direction, the new group trained as a rescue team for eventual new mutant manifestations.; ===Heroic Age===; Experiencing hope for the future of their race, the X-Men embarked on different superhero activities. One of their missions involved Dracula's son, Xarus, who aimed to use the mutants of Utopia as an asset to seize control of all vampires of the world. Intending to subvert Wolverine to his cause, Xarus infected Jubilee. When Wolverine went to her rescue, he was also transformed into a vampire. Wolverine's transformation was ultimately proven to be a ruse planned by Cyclops, who also had resurrected Dracula to act as extra insurance. With Blade's assistance and having Dracula as a tentative ally, the X-Men dethroned Xarus and freed San Francisco from the vampires. Though free from his brainwashing, Jubilee remained a vampire, and received aid from the X-Men in controlling her hunger. Soon after, following the reports of several missing teenagers in New York City, Cyclops sent a team to investigate. In the sewers, the group found many lizard-like creatures. Teaming up with Spider-Man, they learned Dark Beast was behind the kidnappings by manipulating the Lizard's DNA. With Emma Frost and Spider-Man immune from the effect of his experiments, Dark Beast was defeated.; After Emma Frost, Kitty Pryde and Fantomex left Utopia to dispose of Sebastian Shaw in order to prevent Namor from learning about him being alive, Utopia suffered from an HX-N1 epidemy, a virus targeting only mutants, orchestrated by Lobe. Angel gathered a team to publicly act in San Francisco and improve mutant popularity, while most of the X-Men were quarantined in Utopia. Meanwhile, Lobe dispatched his own fabricated team of X-Men, empowered by the Xperience drug. Angel's group, assisted by Kate Kildare as their public relations representative, performed heroic activities in San Francisco, battling the Collective Man, who attempted to seize control of San Francisco's crime scene. Angel's team ultimately got into direct conflict with Lobe's X-Men during a fight against the Collective Man and easily managed to defeat and capture the impostors. Realizing Lobe was trying to capitalize on the X-Men's public image, Cyclops decided to break the quarantine. When the X-Men infected Lobe and his partners with HX-N1, he had no option but to deactivate the artificial virus. Meanwhile, as Frost, Pryde and Fantomex battled Sebastian Shaw, Frost decided to erase his memory and set him loose instead of killing him.; On Utopia, the X-Men learned more about their past after being attacked by the Evolutionaries, who wished to test mutankind as a species. On Mumbai, when visiting Indra's family, Rogue, accompanied by Magneto and a small band of young X-Men, once again crossed paths with the Children of the Vault, who put her on trial for Sangre's death during their original encounter. The X-Men were successful in defeating both of these threats. Unfortunately, when they turned their attention to rebuild San Francisco after Bastion's attack, Karima Shapandar's original Omega Sentinel programming was reactivated in the presence of Hope. Involuntarily, Shapandar attacked the X-Men, but was put out of action by Hellion.; ===Legion, the God-Mutant===; When Pixie was kidnapped by Project Purgatory operatives Magik led Cannonball's X-Men team to Limbo to prevent them from releasing Limbo's Elder Gods. There, the group was attacked and defeated by the Inferno Babies they had rescued from S'ym years before. Magik and Karma were able to escape from Limbo, leading Magik to explain why she returned to the X-Men and formed her new group. It was revealed that Magik had orchestrated Legion's return and the release of the Elder Gods, which would allow her to recover her soul and eliminate her oppressors. Magik led an army of X-Men to Limbo to combat the Elder Gods, secretly setting Legion free, in his “God-Mutant” personality, amidst the fight. Legion erased the Elder Gods from existence, and Magik recovered her soul. As a consequence of her dangerous behavior, Magik was incarcerated by the X-Men.; In an attempt to gain control over his fractured psyche, Legion submitted to a radical new treatment devised by Doctor Nemesis; direct erasure of his alternate personalities. While seemingly working at first, the treatment proved subconsciously traumatic and Legion's mind unconsciously created a new personality to act as a sort of "anti-body". When confronted by Xavier, this personality masqueraded as Moira and created a new reality re-creating Utopia as Fortress X, where the Mutant Resistance, under Magneto's rule, constantly under siege by the forces of the Human Coalition. In this pocket reality, Legion was a renowned super-hero, part of the Force Warriors, responsible for keeping the Fortress X's telekinetic barriers up. However, when Kitty Pryde was found trying to cross the barrier, Legacy (Fortress X's version of Rogue) started to question the integrity of Fortress X. With Gambit's help, Legacy escaped from Moonstar Cadre and Magneto, after being accused of treason. Legacy's and Gambit's investigation led them to free Professor Xavier from the Fortress Brig, allowing him to reveal the true origin of that world to all mutants, who ultimately joined forces to defeat Legion's rogue personality. Legion managed to reabsorb his Moira personality and returned Utopia to its former form. However, many of its residents were permanently scarred by their experience on Fortress X.; Legion's fake reality had several consequences on the X-Men. Though Emma Frost and the Stepford sisters offered to suppress the Utopians' memories of Fortress X in the aftermath of the crisis, some mutants, such as Frenzy, refused the offer. Having been a hero and married to Cyclops in this new reality, Frenzy did not wish to return to her old life and decided to join the X-Men. Another consequence was the escape of some of Legion's personalities to the real world. Legion joined the X-Men and the group managed to recapture the errant personalities. Another consequence was a telepathic call for help sent by Rachel Grey that got distorted in the Fortress X as Revenant. Rogue, using one of Legion's powers, teleported a small group of X-Men across the galaxy in order to rescue Rachel Grey and the other Starjammers. After a conflict with the Grad Nan Holt, the X-Men successfully returned home with Polaris, Rachel Grey and Havok.; ===Schism & Regenesis===; After Mentallo manipulated Roxxon to seize control of the monster population from the Monster Isle, the X-Men had to unexpectedly defend Tokyo from monsters during Armor's mother's and brother's funeral. The X-Men followed Mentallo's trail to the Monster Isle, where he was defeated. Concurrently, Kitty Pryde, Colossus and Storm were recruited by her friends from S.W.O.R.D. – Beast and Lockheed, led by Abigail Brand – to rescue them from a spatial research center invaded by the Brood. During the mission, the X-Men learned about the existence of a benevolent Broodling, who was fundamental to help the X-Men save themselves and their allies.; With Kate Kildare officially invited by Cyclops to act as the X-Men's superhuman public relations, her first task, among many, was to take care about Magneto's recent return to the team. Soon after, the X-Men were contacted by Abigail Brand concerning the arrival of a fleet of refugees from the Breakworld to Earth led by Krunn, who asked Colossus for asylum. The X-Men welcomed the aliens to Utopia, where Kruun revealed his actual intentions on the first night. Using a temporary version of Kavita Rao's mutant cure, he incapacitated some of the X-Men. Kruun's beloved, Haleena, in order to stop him, sacrificed and resurrected Kitty Pryde, performing the same ritual that brought Colossus back to life in the past. No longer trapped in her intangible state, Pryde managed to recruit other X-Men to defeat Kruun. Realizing the tragedy he caused to Haleena, Kruun surrendered. The refugees from the Breakworld were reallocated to San Francisco.; When the God of Fear sought revenge against his brother, the All-Father Odin, some superhumans were, against their wills, recruited to his cause. Among his minions was Juggernaut, now possessed by Kuurth, the Breaker of Stone. More unstoppable than ever, Juggernaut marched to San Francisco, leaving a destructive path as he walked, leading the X-Men to respond to Mayor Sinclair's request for help. As the X-Men failed in her first attempt to stop the unstoppable, Juggernaut's herald proposed an ultimatum to Cyclops and Sinclair: to destroy each other in order to save themselves. Meanwhile, Emma Frost, was telepathically infected by Juggernaut's rage on Utopia. Cyclops deployed his X-Men in numerous different plans. All of them failed but one, involving Magik, who teleported herself, Colossus and Kitty Pryde to the Crimson Cosmos and told Cyttorak that his avatar started to venerate a different god. Enraged, Cyttorak offered Magik to be his new Juggernaut, but Colossus took the offer instead. Imbued with the Juggernaut's powers, Colossus defeated Kuurth and saved both Utopia and San Francisco. However, Cyclops' relationship with Mayor Sinclair was damaged as both sides considered the possibility of destroying each other. On Utopia, Emma Frost was released from the Juggernaut's influence by Namor before she could harm Hope Summers, which fragilized her relationship with Cyclops.; The future of the X-Men was tragically altered when they found an unexpected enemy in the form of Kade Kilgore, the 12-year-old heir of Kilgore Arms, a billionaire weapon manufacturer empire. Kilgore regarded the business of hunting and killing mutants as a very lucrative activity. To increase anti-mutant sentiment, Kilgore recovered Quentin Quire's from his stasis and set him free upon the world. When Cyclops and Wolverine attended an international arms conference, speaking in the name of Utopia in order to prevent mutants from being persecuted, Quire committed a psychic terrorist attack, causing several nations all over the world to activate their Sentinels. Successful in his plan, Kade Kilgore was crowned the new Black King of the Hellfire Club. Following this simultaneous activation of several sentinels, Cyclops dispatched several teams to protect humans from being harmed by malfunctioning machines. Meanwhile, Mayor Sinclair expedited the grand opening of the Mutant History Museum to improve the X-Men's reputation. While Cyclops kept coordinating his missions on Utopia, Emma Frost was sent with the most powerful X-Men to the opening alongside some students. Kilgore's Hellfire Club took this opportunity to set a bomb during the opening. Despite Wolverine's objections, Cyclops ordered one of the youngest X-Men students, Idie Okonkwo, to stop the Hellfire Club henchmen by any means, which led to their deaths. As the bomb went off, a gigantic Sentinel was created and marched to a defenseless Utopia. As Utopia counted only with the power of teenagers, Cyclops decided to stay and protect the island, while Wolverine wished to evacuate it. The debate escalated into a brutal fight between the two X-Men. Ultimately, as the Sentinel arrived at Utopia, the students chose to stay and managed to destroy it. Their difference, however, ended up being more than could be reconciled. Wolverine decided to leave with other X-Men and students to resettle the institute in Westchester. Because of the schism, each resident on Utopia was forced to choose to remain with Cyclops or go back to the mutant school with Wolverine.; ====Regenesis: Utopia====; With Utopia relatively more vulnerable after the schism, the recently self-resurrected Mister Sinister turned his attentions to Cyclops' faction of X-Men. Cyclops reformulated his division of the X-Men as the radical Extinction Team, comprising the most powerful mutants in the world. Mister Sinister tampered with the powers of the Dreaming Celestial to generate a “sinister” fair made up of copies of himself. With the Dreaming Celestial harmed, the X-Men had to deal not only with Sinister's clones but also with the upcoming arrival of Celestials to Earth. The Extinction Team was successful in defeating Sinister, which led the Dreaming Celestial to vouch for them due to their help. The Celestials left the planet and the X-Men's might was proved to the public.; The Extinction Team was then alerted by Psylocke about the existence of the Tabula Rasa, a land that had been progressed millennia in a short time span, effectively becoming alien as a consequence of the actions of the secret X-Force squad. The Tabula Rasa environment was under threat after its exposition. After allying themselves with the Savage to defeat the Immortal Man, the X-Men guaranteed that both Tabula Rasa and the adjacent areas were secure.; After the alien prisoners kept by S.W.O.R.D. broke free on Earth, Abigail Brand enlisted the Extinction Team to recapture the most dangerous criminals in the universe. During their mission, the X-Men teamed up with the Avengers. Among the adversaries was the robot known as Unit, who directly approached Hope. Cyclops decided to abandon his main mission in order to save Hope. Though successful in saving Hope, the X-Men were criticized by Captain America for their desertion, a disagreement that would escalate in the near future. After the conflict, Unit was locked on Utopia by Brand's, something that allowed him to manipulate the Extinction Team from within, especially Danger and Hope.; Meanwhile, Cyclops tasked Psylocke to be in charge of a reconnaissance squad, a security group actually led by Storm. The team dismantled a Sentinel operation in Puternicstan with the help of War Machine, rescued Jubilee and the Forgiven from bounty hunters, and confronted a faction of Skrulls alongside Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four. Storm started to guide her team outside Cyclops' authority, especially after learning about the existence of the Proto-Mutants, an ancient race of super-humans who had been cloned and manipulated by David Gray. With Sabra's help, Storm's team located the last proto-human alive, but Storm's independent actions caused Colossus to disapprove her methods, leading to a fight between the two long-time friends.; ====Regenesis: Westchester====; In Westchester, Wolverine founded the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning, that was built and managed with the help of Kitty Pryde, Beast, Iceman, Rachel Grey, Husk and even Toad (as a janitor). The school also had massive technological support from the Shi'ar Majestor Kallark, under the condition that Prince Kubark enrolled at the school. Kubark was accompanied by a Shi'ar Warbird. On their school's first day, when being evaluated by the New York State Department of Education, they were attacked by the Kilgore's Hellfire Club, since the school represented an unexpected factor in Kilgore's plans. The school was attacked in a variety of ways: a Krakoa (which the school had been built upon) tried to demolish the estate; an army of Frankenstein monsters invaded the school; and the state inspectors were transformed into a Wendigo and a Sauron. They were saved by none other than Quentin Quire, who, being kept in the school against his will, telepathically accessed the Krakoa's mind. Having been tortured his whole life by the Hellfire Club, Krakoa had his first friendly interaction with Quire's telepathic contact. Revealing to be a mutant, Krakoa let his guard down, apologizing and hoping to become an X-Man, effectively becoming the school's grounds. With their plans ruined, the Hellfire Club fled. Kade Kilgore was later served papers by Matt Murdock, having been sued by Wolverine for the damage he caused.; However, the school still faced financial problems. In order to solve them, Wolverine and Quire traveled to Planet Sin, using Quire's telepathy to gamble. At the school, Kitty Pryde experienced an apparent pregnancy. Soon, Beast discovered she had been infected by microscopic Brood, a ploy orchestrated by xenobiologist Dr. Xanto Starblood to approach the benevolent Broo, who had enrolled in the Jean Grey School. The X-Men destroyed the Brood, while Broo himself knocked Starblood out. On Planet Sin, Wolverine and Quire failed in their attempt of cheating, which costed Wolverine's legs, that were deformed by a matter transmuter. Wolverine's legs were cured after some of his students, guided by Angel's and Genesis' intentions, traveled to Planet Sin and retrieved the matter transmuter to Earth in order to help their teacher. Meanwhile, on the S.W.O.R.D. space station, Beast fought Sabretooth, the newest employee of the Hellfire Club.; Other X-Men, who acted as teachers at the Jean Grey School, faced parallel problems. Rogue joined other teachers and some students to confront Exodus, who believed the X-Men schism to be a mistake and attempted to rejoin the X-Men factions using his force. Later, Rogue also helped the former members of Osborn's X-Men, Mimic and Omega, when Omega's powers went out of control.; Meanwhile, some of the X-Men also had problems apart from the Jean Grey School. When a new group of Marauders, controlled by the mysterious Susan Hatchi, made their move against the X-Men, a new unexpected group was assembled, formed by Northstar, Wolverine, Iceman, Gambit, Cecilia Reyes, Karma, and Warbird. Hatchi was revealed to be Karma's missing half-sister and, in seek of revenge and power, planned to take control of Madripoor by manipulating her sister and her friends. The X-Men eventually defeated her. Around this period, the X-Men were present during Northstar's wedding with Kyle Jinadu. This group of X-Men stuck together in different adventures, such as helping Warbird investigate the past of an alien race known as the Fianden and preventing Iceman from being corrupted by a Death Seed and freezing the whole world.; ===Avengers vs. X-Men===; When a new Nova crashed in New York, he alerted the Avengers with a cryptic warning: "it's coming". His uniform carried the energy signature of the Phoenix. Simultaneously, the X-Men noticed flaring up with the power of the Phoenix during a training session, which the Avengers also detected. Supported by Wolverine and knowing about Hope, Captain America arrived on Utopia with the intent of taking Hope into protective custody. Cyclops, convinced that the coming of the Phoenix could herald the rebirth of mutantkind as a species, refused Captain America, who feared the possibility of Earth's destruction. As Cyclops struck the first blast at Captain America, the Avengers assembled and began an invasion of Utopia. Amidst the combat between Avengers and the X-Men, Hope fled from Utopia. Cyclops feigned a surrender to the Avengers, teleporting out of Utopia with several powerful X-Men and gaining a head start in the search for Hope. During the quest for Hope, Wolverine and Captain America had a violent conflict, which forced Wolverine to search her by himself.; Many members of the Jean Grey School joined the X-Men in their war against the Avengers. Since Hope had scattered her signal to several places at once, several teams of X-Men traveled around the world to find her, facing Avengers on Wakanda, Tabula Rasa, Latveria, the Wundagore Mountain, and the Savage Land. On the South Pole, Wolverine was ultimately contacted by Hope herself, who asked him a chance to control the Phoenix. Meanwhile, the Phoenix situation caught the attention of the Shi'ar Majestor, who, fearing for the safety of his heir, sent the Shi'ar Death Commandos to target Hope, who in turn managed to overpower the mercenaries thanks to her new power levels. Hope and Wolverine invaded an A.I.M. facility and flew to the Blue Area of the Moon, in order to prevent the Phoenix from reaching Earth. There, it was revealed Wolverine had announced their location to the Avengers, who waited for them on their destination. Almost immediately, the group was intercepted by the X-Men. As the Avengers' attempt at destroying the Phoenix on space failed, a badly injured Thor crashed onto the Moon, followed by the Phoenix. The Avengers and X-Men descended into a brawl as the power of the Phoenix increased within Hope and she found herself unable to control it. Desperate, she asked Wolverine to kill her, although Cyclops prevented him from doing so. Iron Man used a special suit to try to destroy the Phoenix, but he only managed to splinter it, causing it to take the five X-Men present as hosts: Cyclops, Emma Frost, Namor, Colossus, and Magik.; The five Phoenixes returned to Utopia, reuniting mutantkind and providing resources to improve the world by stopping wars, destroying weapons and providing free food, water, and energy around the globe. Unsatisfied with the potential of the Phoenix for evil, the Avengers continued to be an opposing force, attempting to kidnap Hope from Utopia. The Avengers were successful in their mission due to the Scarlet Witch's intervention. Around this period, the X-Men successfully defeated the Shi'ar army and Majestor Kallark and obliterated the Hellfire Club's Sentinel factories, forcing their members to be arrested. At the same time, the X-Men decided to put the Phoenix's power to destroy Mister Sinister for good. Arriving at Sinister London, the X-Men made their move. Sinister had predicted their actions and planned to siphon the Phoenix Force into some Madelyne Pryor's clones he had manufactured to remodel the world under his image. Though the villain was apparently successful at first, the Phoenix Force proved to be too unpredictable for his calculations and obliterated his plans and his life.; The X-Men then turned their attention into incapacitating the Avengers, shutting down their operations and capturing their members. When the Avengers kidnapped the mutant Transonic during a conflict between the X-Men and the Scarlet Witch, Namor was convinced by Emma Frost to attack the Avengers in their current base, Wakanda. Namor and his Atlantean army flooded Wakanda, as some Avengers escaped to K'un-Lun with Hope. The Avengers narrowly managed to defeat Namor, at the cost of great damage to themselves and Wakanda. With Namor defeated, his portion of the Phoenix Force was bequeathed to the other four hosts. Having even more power to control, the Phoenixes acted erratically and showed signs of losing control. Moreover, with the fall of Wakanda, Storm's marriage to Black Panther was annulled. These events led the X-Men to question the integrity of the Phoenix and many of their members abandoned Utopia. As the Avengers staged a prison breakout for their fellows, Colossus and Magik lost their portions of the Phoenix after being manipulated by Spider-Man.; In K'un-Lun, Cyclops tried to recapture Hope, but was fended off by Shou-Lao and Hope herself, who managed to nullify his powers and teleport him away to the Moon. On Utopia, Emma Frost ruled the X-Men with an iron fist, threatening those whose thoughts displeased her, prompting more mutants to leave Utopia. Several X-Men then teamed up with the Avengers after realizing that Cyclops and Frost had completely lost control. Together they attacked Cyclops and Frost and gained the upper hand until Cyclops was forced to take the final piece of the Phoenix from Frost, making him the sole host. The complete Phoenix proved too much and finally turned him into Dark Phoenix upon which he killed Professor X, who had attempted to stop him.; The X-Men and the Avengers combated the destruction the Phoenix produced around Earth. Cyclops, after a brief moment of composure, got rid of the Phoenix with the help of Hope and the Scarlet Witch. Using the Phoenix's powers, Hope restored the devastation caused by Cyclops. Alongside the Scarlet Witch, she decided to dissipate the Phoenix Force, which caused new mutants to manifest all over the world since the M-Day.; Cyclops was brought into custody accepting full responsibility for the tragedy. As he learned that mutantkind had been reborn, he declared that, while he regretted the destruction he caused and the death of Professor Xavier, he would do it all again to save mutantkind. On the other side of the story, Captain America acknowledged the Avengers should have done more to help mutants instead of standing by while the world hated them. This led Captain America to form the Avengers Unity Squad, a team of Avengers led by Cyclops' brother, Havok, in hopes of keeping Charles Xavier's dream of coexistence between mutants and humans alive.; After the war, Storm joined the Jean Grey School staff, right after the Hellfire Club secretly settled in Salem Center and gravely wounded the student Broo. One of the Hellfire Club's members, as the last survivor of the Frankenstein family, attracted the attention of the Frankenstein's Monster's Murder Circus of zombies. The Murder Circus brainwashed all adults in Salem Center, including the X-Men, into serving his hunt for the last Frankenstein. Eventually, with the help of their students, the X-Men broke free from the manipulation and foiled the Murder Circus' plans.; ===The Original Five===; While Cyclops was initially content to stay in prison fulfilling his intent to become either a martyr or a political prisoner, his opinions soon changed after receiving a visit from a very much alive Mister Sinister and after his fellow mutant inmate Jake was murdered in jail. Cyclops sent a message to Magneto, who executed a prison breakout. Now leading Magneto and Magik, Cyclops vowed to continue fighting to protect mutantkind. In different operations to rescue new mutants in trouble with the authorities -- such as Eva Bell, Christopher Muse and Benjamin Deeds, Cyclops' X-Men offered training and cause, recruiting them to a mutant rebellion, headquartered at the redesigned Weapon X Facility. Unexpectedly, while rescuing Emma Frost, the X-Men learned their powers were malfunctioning.; Meanwhile, X-Men at the Jean Grey School foresaw problems in Cyclops' movement. At the same time, Beast began suffering from a further mutation, which could mean his end. Also distressed by Cyclops' extreme stance against anti-mutantism, which could antagonize humanity and threaten the future of mutantkind, Beast traveled back to the time of the original X-Men. He brought the young versions of the X-Men the present after informing them Cyclops had killed Professor Xavier. The time-displaced original X-Men were detained by the present X-Men at the school but ran away to meet the present Cyclops and Magneto.; Following a brief conflict, Cyclops and Magneto were extracted by Magik. Back to the Jean Grey School, the young Beast stabilized his present version's mutation. While many present X-Men, chiefly Wolverine wanted to send the original X-Men back to their time, the group voted on whether to remain or not. With only Angel intending to return, the original X-Men were granted stay in the present under the watchful tutelage of Kitty Pryde. The arrival of the time-displaced X-Men caught the attention and the interest of Mystique, who secretly approached young Cyclops, and of the Avengers, who witnessed Angel in fieldwork.; Cyclops kept his revolutionary agenda, inspiring popular risings and worrying S.H.I.E.L.D.'s director, Maria Hill. His actions were also seemingly tracked by new Sentinels, under unrevealed orders. After rescuing and recruiting Fabio Medina and combating the Avengers, Cyclops' X-Men visited the Jean Grey School to offer their point of view. Following a conflict between the different factions of the X-Men, the Stepford sisters and the time-displaced Angel decided to follow Cyclops.; Concurrently, Mystique made her move to manipulate the future of mutantkind, by reforming a new Brotherhood, with Sabretooth and Lady Mastermind, who assisted her in collecting assets to acquire Madripoor from Hydra leader, the Viper. Mystique's plans were revealed and intercepted by Wolverine and the original X-Men, who had support from the Avengers Unity Squad, though Mystique managed to run free. Cyclops' X-Men had problems of their own when Dormammu attempted to usurp Magik's position as the regent of Limbo. With Dormammu defeated by the X-Men, Magik became Doctor Strange's apprentice. Soon after welcoming David Bond to their initiative, the X-Men entered in direct conflict with S.H.I.E.L.D. and their new liaison, Dazzler, who had captured Fabio Medina. The X-Men were successful to rescue their student but failed in recruiting Dazzler to their cause, which allowed Mystique to kidnap her and replace her as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. As Cyclops' revolutionary ideas became more popular, the X-Men confirmed that a hidden enemy tracked their actions, trying to intercept them with state-of-the-art Sentinels.; ===Battle of the Atom===; When Wolverine led a field trip to the Savage Land with his most problematic students, the adventure unfortunately became tragic due to the intervention of Wolverine's time-traveling brother, Dog. The X-Men students proved their worth by defeating Dog and his forces. The X-Men realized that their recent adversaries, such as Mystique, Dr. Starblood and Dog, had been following a common enemy, the Hellfire Club, who were also assisted by a mole. When Husk and Toad were outed as the traitors, they left with Quentin Quire, Idie Okonkwo, and Broo. Okonkwo wished revenge against the Hellfire Club for having hurt Broo, and Quire wanted to guarantee her safety.; The Hellfire Club had built a school run by their lackeys, the Hellfire Academy, in an attempt to form mutant supervillains, undermine the human-mutant relations and capitalize on selling Sentinels. With the help of both the Bamfs and Krakoa, the X-Men pinpointed the Hellfire Academy's location to save their missing students, easily overpowering the Hellfire Club, who was already compromised as most of their super-villain staff members abandoned them during the fight.; Around this period, the X-Men also had to fight a new enemy in the form of Arkea, John Sublime's “sister”, who had possessed Karima Shapandar's inactive robotic body. Arkea became a problem to the X-Men after the return of Jubilee, who had run away around the world after saving a baby from a bomb incident and adopting him. In order to expurgate Arkea from Karima's system, Storm formed an all-female squad of X-Men.; When time-displaced Cyclops was gravely injured by a Sentinel in a fight against Animax, the X-Men decided that sending the original X-Men back to the past was an urgent matter. Unexpectedly, when activating the time machine, the X-Men were met by a group of mutants from the future. Claiming to be the X-Men, these time travelers convinced most of the X-Men that bringing the original X-Men to the present had had terrible repercussions to mutant history. However, young Jean Grey, frightened by the mysterious team blocking of her telepathic powers, especially by her future self Xorn, convinced teenage Cyclops to run away with her in order to not be unwillingly sent back to the past. The duo asked Cyclops' outlaw X-Men for help, leading to another confrontation between the two factions of X-Men. Meanwhile, Magik teleported the past versions of Beast and Iceman to the future in order to meet the real X-Men and unmask the interlopers' real identities as the Brotherhood.; Reluctantly, the future X-Men went to the present, with the intentions of stopping their time's Brotherhood from causing any more fractures in the space-time continuum. As the future X-Men found assistance in Cyclops' X-Men, the future Brotherhood seized control of the Jean Grey School, incapacitating Wolverine's team. As the Brotherhood attacked the remaining X-Men, they realized the past X-Men could not be sent back to the past for unknown restraints and decided to kidnap the original X-Men and attack Cape Citadel, in order to attract S.H.I.E.L.D.'s attention to mutantkind and cause chaos. In a dramatic battle between mutants from the past, the present and the future, many members of the future X-Men and the future Brotherhood were slain, including Xorn, who lost control of her mutant powers and gave both X-Men teams a chance to evacuate. The surviving future X-Men returned to their time, except for Kymera, Storm's daughter, who decided to stay and keep a look out for the Brotherhood in this timeline. Meanwhile, Kitty Pryde, alongside all of the past X-Men, was disappointed in how Wolverine's X-Men reacted to the crisis and departed from the Jean Grey School to join Cyclop's New Charles Xavier School.; ===The Quest for Nightcrawler===; Around this period, Wolverine and his X-Men tracked an alternate version of Nightcrawler from the Age of Apocalypse, who had betrayed Wolverine and the X-Force. Nightcrawler, in an attempt to find his way back to his home reality, tampered with the Dreaming Celestial's energies and tore a rift in the very fabric of reality, allowing it to be invaded by the powerful Exterminators. Wolverine's X-Men teamed up with the human X-Terminated and Dazzler's interdimensional X-Men to fend off the Exterminators and the groups found victory after the immense tragedy when Nightcrawler sacrificed himself to seal off the portal and stop the invasion.; The mystery behind the Bamf infestation at the Jean Grey School turned out to be unexpectedly dangerous after the little creatures built a portal that allowed other Bamfs to kidnap the X-Men, including their new addition Firestar, to an unknown realm. As the X-Men fought demonic pirates in this unknown place, they were assisted by their deceased friend Nightcrawler. It was revealed that Nightcrawler's father, Azazel, had been stealing innocent souls from the afterlife. As Nightcrawler gathered the X-Men, they faced down Azazel and defeated him, allowing Nightcrawler to return to the land of the living with them.; ===Death of Wolverine===; After Wolverine went missing, following a distress call sent by Heather Hudson of the Alpha Flight, the X-Men went to Canada to rescue him. There, they witnessed a Wendigo epidemic, with Wolverine being one of its victims. Teaming up with Alpha Flight, the X-Men found a solution by making contact with the Great Beasts in order to restore the balance between the physical and the spiritual world. Using the energies from the Realm of the Beasts, the X-Men ascended to godhood and facilitated Guardian to destroy of the beast Tanaraq, who had caused the problems. With Tanaraq dead, the Wendigo infection was over and Wolverine was able to return home.; As the Sentinel assaults against the X-Men escalated, Cyclops was forced to declare war against S.H.I.E.L.D. Around this period, he joined forces with Wolverine to deactivate S.H.I.E.L.D. At the same time, while investigating the technology behind the new Sentinels, Cyclops and his X-Men concluded that Beast was probably behind the attacks. Arriving at the Jean Grey School, Cyclops completely lost control over his powers, an extreme symptom of his broken powers, which alerted S.H.I.E.L.D. to his location. After a brief conflict, the two factions of X-Men and S.H.I.E.L.D.'s director, Maria Hill, decided to work together to find the real conspirator. However, Hill's helicarrier was hacked by the secret villain, putting the X-Men in danger. The Helicarrier was ultimately freed by Cyclops' student, Hijack, allowing the X-Men to find and defeat the villain behind the new Sentinels and the X-Men's malfunctioning powers, the Dark Beast, who perished during the battle. Tragically, soon after, Wolverine, who had lost his healing factor, died, making Storm the sole headmistress of the Jean Grey School and leader of the X-Men.; ===AXIS===; When the Red Skull, who had been empowered by the telepathic brain of Charles Xavier, established mutant concentration camps on Genosha, he found resistance in the Avengers Unity Squad and in Magneto. However, the confrontation led the nazi villain to ascend as the Red Onslaught and to spread a telepathic hate wave across the globe. The X-Men joined forces with the Avengers to take the Red Onslaught down, but the two teams failed. However, after Magneto assembled a team of supervillains to stop the Red Onslaught, the Scarlet Witch and Doctor Doom were able to cast an inversion spell to strengthen Charles Xavier's consciousness. As a collateral result, the moral axis of those present in the island was inverted, including the X-Men.; The X-Men were led by an inverted Genesis, who adopted Apocalypse as his name, and prepared mutantkind to wage a war against humanity and the Avengers. Apocalypse landed his Ship on Manhattan once again, claiming it as the first prize of his mutant uprising after the X-Men violently defeated the Avengers. The villainous X-Men planned on detonating a gene bomb, developed by the Akkaba Clan, to kill everyone on the Earth who did not carry a mutant gene. However, Magneto's team of villains, who had been turned heroic and were led by Steve Rogers, tried to stop Apocalypse and his X-Men. Though defeated in combat, they managed to prevent the bomb from fulfilling its purpose with Carnage's apparent sacrifice. With humanity safe, the inverted Avengers battled the X-Men. During the fight, a reinversion spell was cast by the Scarlet Witch and Doctor Doom, with the help of the inverted Red Skull, which restored almost everybody back to normal.; ===Mutant Revolution===; Soon after, the X-Men were caught up in a dispute for the legacy of Juggernaut, as a series of super-villains were determined to claim the power of the Crimson Gem of Cyttorak for their own use. Guided by Colossus, the X-Men tried to prevent the rise of a new villainous Juggernaut. As they failed in their attempt, the Living Monolith managed to become the new Juggernaut. Colossus tried to commune with Cyttorak to become his avatar again, but was rejected as the Juggernaut's unstoppable power returned to Cain Marko. Although significantly weaker than the Juggernaut, Colossus managed to defeat him by being elusive, thus saving the X-Men.; At the reading of Charles Xavier's will, the X-Men learned that Cyclops had inherited the Jean Grey School. At the same time, Cyclops also discovered about a nefarious legacy of Xavier's past, the insane and omnipotent mutant named Matthew Malloy, who had been erased from existence by Eva Bell, now going by Tempus. Tempus accused Cyclops' revolutionary discourse of bringing the chaos behind Malloy's destructive actions. The two consecutive revelations represented an epiphany for Cyclops, who declared the Jean Grey School should still be run by Storm and decided to terminate the New Charles Xavier School.; At the former Weapon X facility, Cyclops was met by his brother Havok, still affected by the inversion of his moral axis. Despite not always having agreed with Cyclops' ideals, Havok decided to support his brother's revolution. Cyclops was also joined by the Utopians, a group of renegade mutants found and rescued by the time-displaced X-Men. Managing to assemble the entire mutantkind at Washington, D.C., Cyclops proclaimed that his revolutionary agenda consisted of uniting mutants and proving they are not intrinsically dangerous, seemingly healing the schism between the X-Men. After exposing to the world there is nothing to fear from mutants, Cyclops was praised by Magneto, who shared that Charles Xavier would have been proud of him. Concurrently, the X-Men organized an intervention for Beast due to his reckless actions against Cyclops, however Beast refused to own up to his mistakes and angrily left the X-Men.; Following this reunion of mutantkind, Cyclops was able to establish a new mutant sovereign state known as "Nation X", granting protection for the X-Men in the former Weapon X Facility. At a moment when the world was struggling with the world ending multiversal incursions, Cyclops decided to make his move to save the planet, a mission that caused him to have Beast as an ally once again. As part of his plan, Cyclops managed to acquire a Phoenix Egg and, because of it, he was teleported by Manifold to a small life raft meant to survive the end of the Universe. Once they got to Battleworld, however, Cyclops was murdered by Doctor Doom.; ===Inhumanity===; After the restoration of the Multiverse and all its inhabitants, the mutants found yet another threat in the form of the previously harmless Inhuman Terrigen Mists. After the detonation of the Terrigen Bomb by Inhuman king Black Bolt, it was discovered that the mists composition had changed and they were now hazardous to mutants, afflicting any mutant that entered in contact with them with an illness known as M-Pox. When Muir Island was swept by a toxic terrigen cloud, a moribund Jamie Madrox called the X-Men for help. As soon as Cyclops entered in contact with the mists he fell ill and died of M-Pox. Fueled by rage and unwilling to let Cyclops' legacy end, Emma Frost revealed to the world the hazard of Terrigen to mutants, destroying one of the two clouds that roamed the world with the help of Alchemy, at the cost of his own life. With the cloud destroyed, the Inhumans confronted the X-Men, while Frost kept projecting a mental image of Cyclops to keep his death a secret. When Black Bolt killed "Cyclops", Frost's wish to see him die for his cause and transcend his mortality to become an idea was fulfilled.; Frost's actions in the name of Cyclops were not well received by the world, leading mutants to become persecuted and hated once again, and prompting the X-Men to disband. The manipulations also raised tensions between inhumans and mutants. With her people in constant danger, Storm started working on a sanctuary called X-Haven, which consisted of the entirety of the Jean Grey School being moved to the realm of Limbo. Magneto also made his move by assembling a group of X-Men who, unlike Storm's, took a harsher stance to ensure the survival of the mutant species. Meanwhile, the time-displaced original X-Men decided to deal with the crisis by themselves on a road trip.; Realizing that mutants had a place in the world, Storm rebuilt the X-Men with Iceman, Magik, Colossus and Forge (with his pet Sentinel, Cerebra) at her side. When recruiting time-displaced Jean Grey, the group discovered that an aged version of Wolverine was active in Canada. Concurrently, as Magik and Colossus attempted to rescue Nightcrawler in the Morlock Tunnels, they were kidnapped by Mister Sinister. With Magik out of commission, X-Haven lost her protection and was vulnerable to the demonic forces of Limbo. The attack convinced Jean Grey and the Old Man Logan to join Storm's X-Men. The X-Men decided to take the fight to Sinister, in hopes of saving Magik and restoring Limbo. There, they learned Mister Sinister took interest in experimenting with the inhuman DNA, creating an inhuman clone of Cyclops. The insane clone ravaged the streets of New York City, but was destroyed by the X-Men, who publicly announced their return and declared they would fight for mutantkind.; After rescuing a group of mutant refugees guarded by Sunfire in the Weirdworld, the X-Men went to Japan to secure the manifestation of six hundred new mutants. They learned the signal corresponded to embryos engineered by the Sugar Man. During the fight, Colossus and his students were sent to the future and the other X-Men followed them to the Omega World. The group was attacked by the Horsemen of Apocalypse, who had Colossus added to their ranks as War. After the X-Men confronted Apocalypse himself, the Omega World collapsed. Magik managed to teleport the team back to X-Haven with Colossus and Apocalypse as their prisoners. Other prisoners the X-Men made during this period were the Nasty Boys, whom they had rescued from a prison contaminated with terrigen.; The X-Men's next crisis concerned Magik's pupil, the girl named Sapna, who had been possessed by the entity known as the World-Eater and managed to steal Magik's Soulsword. As Sapna attempted to destroy X-Haven, Magik found support with the Magical Resistance, a group made with survivors of the World-Eater's destruction. Ultimately, Magik had no choice but to put Sapna down, protecting X-Haven from the World-Eater. During the conflict, Apocalypse was slain by Nightcrawler, ensuring Colossus' freedom.; When Beast, who had been working with the Inhumans to find a cure to M-Pox, discovered that the remaining cloud was weeks from reaching a saturation point, which would've caused it to become fully assimilated into the atmosphere, rendering the Earth completely uninhabitable for mutants, he shared this information first with the X-Men. Believing that the Inhumans would refuse to destroy the cloud even at this moment, the different factions of the X-Men were united by Emma Frost and launched a coordinated attack on Inhuman key players in order to neutralize them long enough, trapping most of them in Limbo, to use a machine created by Forge to absorb and destroy the Terrigen.; Two of the newest Inhumans, Iso and Inferno, managed to escape the assault on New Attilan and destroyed Forge's machine, taking him hostage. The two young Inhumans then called reinforcements in the form of other NuHumans, including Mosaic, who used his powers to infiltrate Muir Island and learn the X-Men's reason behind their attack, later reporting that to his peers, which prompted the NuHumans to join forces with Forge to come up with a new solution.; The NuHumans then traveled to Iceland, the latest location of the Terrigen Cloud, but were soon confronted by the X-Men, who had no idea of their plans. The royal Inhumans joined the brawl, having escaped from Limbo and regrouped. The battle was interrupted when Ennilux arrived, having provided Forge and Moon Girl with the resources to build the machine necessary to eliminate the Terrigen Cloud. Medusa was notified of what was at stake and given the trigger to activate the device. In spite of what the destruction of the Terrigen Cloud meant for Inhumans, Medusa activated the machine, destroying the Cloud and ending the threat of the M-Pox. However, Cyclops' time-displaced younger self exposed Emma Frost's lies regarding the events surrounding his older self's death. Furious at Cyclops' death at the hands of the Inhuman Mists, Frost insisted on fighting the Inhumans, employing reprogrammed Sentinels to massacre the Inhumans from Ennilux. The X-Men joined forces with the Inhumans and eventually managed to take Frost and her Sentinels down, although she managed to escape.; ===ResurrXion===; In the wake of the war, Storm considered her performance during the conflict catastrophic and chose to pass the reins of leadership to Kitty Pryde, who had recently returned to Earth after working with the Guardians of the Galaxy. Pryde decided to take advantage of the doors to the future opened for mutantkind to build on Xavier's dream once again, creating a legacy of mutant heroes and protectors of the world. As part of this plan, Pryde had the X-Mansion moved from Limbo to the middle of Central Park as the Xavier Institute for Mutant Education and Outreach, in order to boost the exposure of the X-Men as a super-heroic group. Meanwhile, the time-displaced original X-Men made a dark alliance with Magneto, being based in Madripoor.; Back to the basics, the main team of X-Men protected New York City from threats such as Terrax the Tamer. However, they still faced adversities for their status in the form of anti-mutant activist Lydia Nance and a new Brotherhood led by Mesmero, who attacked the United Nations Headquarters and kidnapped the Mayor of New York City. Upon defeating Mesmero and saving the day, the X-Men discovered the terrorist attacks' agenda was planned by Nance, who hoped to damage the public opinion on mutants, forging an explicitly hostile relationship between the X-Men and Nance's organization. Soon after, when Gambit accidentally created a new form of nanite-based Sentinels while being manipulated by Olivia Trask, the X-Men intervened and destroyed the Sentinels with the help of several other superheroes.; When Captain America was turned into a Hydra Agent by Kobik and took over the United States, he trapped New York City within a Darkforce dome cast by Blackout. With the X-Mansion vulnerable with the Darkforce attack, an anti-mutant assassin took the opportunity to assault the X-Men and their students in retaliation for Xorn's attacks that had killed his family in the past. The killer was ultimately contained by the X-Men before causing major harm.; Meanwhile, out of the dome, Captain America had planned to control and neutralize mutant interference to his plans by secretly offering a portion of the western United States as the mutant sovereign state of New Tian. Xorn was appointed as the leader of New Tian and the remaining X-Men joined him. With the tension rising between New Tian and Hydra Nation, causing confrontations between X-Men and Hydra's Avengers, it was revealed that real liege behind Xorn was Emma Frost, who controlled him psychically. Ultimately, interrupting the amicable diplomatic relations with Hydra, Frost joined forces with Magneto as the X-Men from Manhattan and New Tian entered the final battle against Captain America and his fascist regime in Washington, D.C. after the Darkforce dome was deactivated.; With the Hydra over, a congressional bill was proposed to deport mutants from the U.S. Kitty Pryde and Colossus tried to testify against it with the help of Congresswoman Stevie Hunter, when unexpectedly confronting the terrorist Whiplash. Soon after, the X-Men also had to deal with the return of Omega Red by the Russian Mafia since they had captured Magik to force her to restore him to his full strength. After this, the two factions of X-Men were briefly reunited when Mojo captured them to serve as attractions to his television shows, replicating several of the X-Men's classic battles.; When bizarre psychic events started to manifest all over the globe, accompanied by sightings of previously deceased mutants, the different factions of past and present X-Men decided to investigate as they linked the events to the coming of the Phoenix. After finding Jean Grey's coffin empty, the X-Men traveled to New Mexico, by Emma Frost's advice, and found the illusory psychic reality that the Phoenix had created for Jean Grey, responsible for the unusual psychic phenomena. As the X-Men battled several of their former teammates who had been reanimated by the Phoenix, they reached Jean Grey, who decided to reject the Phoenix Force for good and returned to her former life. Jean Grey, determined to change a world she did not recognize anymore, formed her own team of X-Men, who fought for a peaceful future.; As the issues with the mutant deportation bill turned more complex, the X-Men Kitty Pryde and Nightcrawler were kidnapped to the Negative Zone by the army of Kologoth, who rescued their leader who had been defeated and incarcerated by the X-Men for his actions as a member of Mesmero's Brotherhood. The remaining X-Men assembled a special squadron with Armor and Ink to retrieve their teammates. As Kologoth awakened the destructive god named Scythian, the X-Men had no choice but to kill Kologoth and trap Scythian inside the void of the Negative Zone. With Storm's powers, the X-Men managed to return home.; Meanwhile, Mesmero reassembled his Brotherhood and performed an attack against his former employer Lydia Nance after breaking out of prison. As the X-Men intervened, Mesmero managed to manipulate them into attack a NYPD team, which was part of Nance's plan since the beginning. With the X-Men incarcerated at the mutant prison known as the Box, Iceman and Rogue formed a replacement squad made up of Magma, Magik, Armor, Ink and the new Pyro, who faced threats such as the Shredded Man and the return of Scythian in Paris, which guaranteed the X-Men's freedom as they had defeated him in the past. With Scythian destroyed by the heroic actions of X-Men, the Mutant Deportation Bill was dropped.; Nance tried to eliminate the X-Men by other means by aligning herself with the nanite-based Sentinel known as Alpha. They developed a mutant-killing virus based on remnants of the Legacy Virus in Colossus' body, whom had been kidnapped to this end, leading the X-Men to tracked him down to Nance's Savage Land base. Nance was knocked out cold by Kitty Pryde while Alpha escaped to space in order to release the virus. With the help of Alpha Flight, the X-Men stopped him. With Nance's plan thwarted, she was sent to the Triskelion by the X-Men, while Alpha was presumably put out of commission by Iceman. With Colossus rescued and safe, the X-Men prepared to attend his wedding to Kitty Pryde. Although she had a change of heart at the last moment and interrupted the wedding, the X-Men still celebrated the union of Rogue and Gambit. Following the wedding, the X-Men were a target for Mesmero one more time, who cast an illusion to control Rachel Grey. After defeating him, they helped Storm defeat Uovu, a god who tormented her former village.; ===Disassembled===; When Ahab started to hunt the time-displaced original X-Men, all factions of the X-Men reunited at the X-Mansion to protect themselves. The teenage Iceman was kidnapped by a younger version of Cable, who has executed his older self. Cable also retrieved the time-displaced Angel, an event that was followed by Ahab invading the X-Mansion with his Hounds. While Ahab infected and brainwashed some X-Men, Cable claimed young Beast, but was intercepted by time-displaced Jean Grey and the X-Force.; Cable revealed his intention of sending the original X-Men back to the past in order to prevent dystopian consequences to the timestream. With Jean Grey and the X-Force as his allies, he traveled to X-Lantis to recover Cyclops before Ahab could harm him. Cable sent the original X-Men back to the past, and Jean Grey locked their memories to be reawakened in their future selves' minds. As she completed the process, the original adult X-Men recollected their past versions' memories, managing to defeat Ahab. With the threat over, it was revealed that the kid Cable was also responsible for resurrecting Cyclops using a caged portion of the Phoenix Force, though his return was still kept secret to his friends.; With the return of the original X-Men to the past, Kitty Pryde was joined by Jean Grey and her X-Men to keep Xavier's ideals alive. However, they had no tranquility since a series of weird phenomena caught their attention, leading Pryde to go missing. At the same time, Senator Ashton Allen divulged the proposition of a new anti-mutant vaccine. Similarly to Pryde, Allen and the X-Man Angel also vanished with no explanations during a raid carried out by the Multiple Man. Amidst catastrophes and hysteria, Legion approached the X-Mansion, offering help to the X-Men's students in ceasing the conflicts. Learning Legion was behind the attack performed by the Multiple Man, the X-Men confronted him at the X-Mansion, only to be interrupted by the arrival of the so-called Horsemen of Salvation who obliterated the Xavier Institute alleging the X-Men had to end. The master of the Horsemen was revealed to be Nate Grey, who, after having an immense power boost by a Life Seed, was behind the kidnappings of Pryde, Allen, Angel and also Apocalypse.; The X-Men uselessly tried to defeat the Horsemen. Meanwhile, Legion found support with the X-Men's students and attempted to imprison the unwell Nate Grey in his home reality, the "Age of Apocalypse", but also trapped the students in there. Unable to finish Nate Grey, the students were rescued by Bishop, which caused Nate Grey to take control over Legion's body and powers. In the main reality, the X-Men found an unexpected ally in Apocalypse when battling X-Man and his Horsemen. Meanwhile, Jean Grey assembled a distress call to several current and former X-Men and allies, gathering an army to stop Nate Grey. However, the X-Men failed, and Nate Grey used the Life Seed to erase their existence. The X-Men were declared dead.; Nate Grey had actually transported the X-Men to a pocket reality he had created, a perfect world where the dream of mutants living with no strife, oppression or dependence was achieved. In this reality, the X-Men had their existences rewritten and served as the world's most adored heroes. However, this world lacked interpersonal intimate relationships, as a way for Nate Grey to prevent communion and rebellion. Apocalypse served as a revolutionary leader for the Resistance, which caused the X-Men to start questioning their place in this world.; Meanwhile, on the real Earth, a mournful Cyclops reconnected with a recently resurrected Wolverine in order to protect victims of the rising anti-mutant sentiment. Based in Harry's Hideaway, Cyclops and Wolverine decided to track and recruit the remaining X-Men as a new threat emerged in the form of O*N*E's new director, General Callahan. The X-Men were reformed after Havok and the technarchy-infected New Mutants were rescued from one of O*N*E installations, victims of procedures that weaponized them as sentinels.; The new group of X-Men targeted potential threats to mutantkind or from dangerous mutants, starting with the Dark Beast. During the fight, they recruited Multiple Man, who had been a subject of Dark Beast's experiments. The captured Dark Beast was forced to work for the X-Men. Meanwhile, the X-Men found an ally in Val Cooper, who informed them about the Mutant Liberation Front activities. At the same time, Dark Beast provided the X-Men with information about the Marauders, who had been slaughtering the Morlocks. As the X-Men helped the Morlocks to evacuate to Chernaya, after liberating a region of the country from extremist militants at Cooper's request. Their action caused Chamber to be their new member. In their next intervention, the X-Men tracked the Mutant Liberation Front, now led by Hope Summers and having Banshee in their ranks. The X-Men defeated and captured Banshee and Hope, but not before she managed to assassinate an anti-mutant politician and cost Cyclops his right eye. At Harry's, Dark Beast cleaned the New Mutants from the technarchy, restoring Warlock in the body of one of Multiple Man's duplicates.; When the King of the Dark Elves Malekith led an invasion to Earth, Dani Moonstar, as a Valkyrie, was summoned to the battle. The X-Men followed her, and Magik included Hope and Banshee on the team. The X-Men established a fortress in the Queens to resist Malekith's forces, where they were attacked by Sabretooth, who had joined Malekith's wild hunt. Sabretooth was defeated and executed by Wolfsbane and Magik after Sunspot perished in battle. Days later, after the war, the X-Men returned home and mourned their losses.; Cyclops decided to hand the Mutant Liberation Front members to the government but kept Dark Beast, as he considered him to be a useful asset, something that caused distress with Havok concerning the X-Men's leadership. This led the group to be rebranded as a leaderless initiative, with decisions being taken collectively. The X-Men then hunted the Brotherhood down in Transia, defeating them with the help of Juggernaut, who asked to rejoin the team after learning the Brotherhood's leader was not Magneto, but his clone, Joseph. Unexpectedly, Joseph was swiftly slain by Kwannon, who was arrested by the X-Men as they learned Wolfsbane had been murdered. With Kwannon's help, Wolverine avenged Wolfsbane by killing her aggressors. Meanwhile, Juggernaut questioned the X-Men about the whereabouts of Emma Frost, only to learn the group was unable to recognize one of its most prominent former leaders.; The X-Men turned their attention to the Marauders, who were destroyed by Chamber at the cost of his own life. Back home, the X-Men learned Harry's Hideaway was burned to the ground by Mister Sinister. The X-Men imprisoned Sinister as he unexpectedly surrendered and relocated to one of Karma's buildings. Mister Sinister was handed to Captain America, who was revealed to be secretly Mystique in disguise and working for Emma Frost's new Hellfire Club, who in turn was being blackmailed by Callahan. However, Wolverine and Kwannon managed to uncover the façade and directly confronted Frost and O*N*E, being defeated. Meanwhile, the rest of the X-Men fended the Upstarts off after finding the lifeless bodies of the Nasty Boys. Later, under Cyclops' orders, Dark Beast developed an antidote to the anti-mutant vaccine announced weeks earlier. However, when meeting with Doctor Nemesis and the real Captain America, Cyclops not only discovered the existence of an impostor, but also learned Dark Beast's cure caused extremely dangerous collateral reactions. The X-Men escaped with Nemesis and put Dark Beast down, being summoned by Emma Frost to help her defeat O*N*E moments later.; At the Hellfire Club Mansion, Emma Frost revealed to the X-Men that she had been blackmailed by Callahan. Callahan stroke back, causing Magik and Juggernaut to be lost. The X-Men escaped his attacks and learned that Emma Frost, with the assistance of Doctor Nemesis, Fabian Cortez, and Mister Sinister, had erased the concept of mutantkind from all the minds on the planet, in a desperate attempt to end anti-mutant sentiment. Frost's forced pacifism proved to be a bizarrely unnatural new situation to the X-Men. However, the X-Men were still targets of Callahan's Technarchy-based Sentinels, as he was proven to be immune to the telepathic erasure performed by Frost. Havok, Warlock and Multiple Man perished in a combat against Callahan's Sentinels, and the X-Men believed they faced a hopeless fight. Meanwhile, on Nate Grey's dimension, the X-Men were able to see through his imposed illusion of peace, ripping apart the society he had created. By uniting themselves, the mutants overcame his manipulations and convinced him to set them free. The X-Men abandoned Nate Grey's dream and returned to their cruel reality just in time to assist the X-Men in destroying Callahan and his Sentinels. Together, the X-Men decided to deactivate Frost's device and restore the world's memories about mutants. The X-Men were back to fight the war for Xavier's dream once again.; ===Heroes of Krakoa===; When Professor X, with the assistance of Magneto and Moira, established a mutant nation on Krakoa, the X-Men disbanded, as they were believed to no longer be needed. However, they ultimately reformed when Cyclops and Jean Grey gathered an army of mutants to rescue the Swordbearers of Krakoa during the Krakoa-Arakko War in Otherworld. After this event, Cyclops and Jean Grey decided to permanently recreate the team going as opposed to accepting positions on the Quiet Council of Krakoa, since they felt that Krakoa needed heroes working in their best interests, representing and fighting for mutantkind. To recreate the X-Men, they decided to call for elections.; At the Hellfire Gala, Cyclops and Jean Grey announced the members of the Krakoan X-Men. Adopting a telepathic voting system, the new X-Men line-up elected by mutantkind, and led by the pair, was revealed to the world: Rogue, Sunfire, Wolverine, Synch and Polaris. Emma Frost purchased and ceded an estate in Central Park 86th Street Transverse to serve as the X-Men's new headquarters, which was redesigned as the Seneca Gardens public park to celebrate and remember mutant accomplishments and losses. In the middle of it, Krakoa, Forge, Tempo and Cypher created a techno-organic Treehouse as the main private base for the team to operate in. Unlike other Krakoan habitats, the Seneca Gardens area was open to humans. As the former Kingpin of crime and mayor of New York City Wilson Fisk ruled that independent costumed vigilantes should cease their operations, his Thunderbolts sieged Seneca Gardens. The X-Men resisted, leading to a brief conflict with the Thunderbolts. However, as an effect of legal actions carried out by Emma Frost and Krakoan Ambassador Harry Leland, the Treehouse officially became a consulate of Krakoa for the United Nations. One night, from the Treehouse, Jean Grey efficiently freed many New Yorkers, including the X-Men, from Nightmare, who had took advantage of Doctor Strange's demise to torment the dreams of many innocents.; The new team intercepted and fought off two alien attacks: one by the Mind Reaver in Manhattan and the other by the Annihilation Wave in Kansas. After combating the High Evolutionary in Vietnam, the X-Men learned that the alien attacks were the work of the intergalactic crime-lord Cordyceps Jones, who had been running bets on who could destroy the Earth first on his casino, Gameworld. The attacks of both Cordyceps Jones and the High Evolutionary were a response to mutantkind terraforming Mars during the Hellfire Gala, rebuilding it as Planet Arakko. After Synch provided the High Evolutionary with a drop of his blood in exchange for calling off his attack, Cyclops and Jean Grey planned an attack on Gameworld. Rogue and her husband Gambit travelled to the gambling planet to investigate only to be met by Destiny, who alerted them the X-Men would find no answers there. However, Rogue's connections to Rocket ultimately led the X-Men to Gameworld. The X-Men defeated Cordyceps Jones, arresting him and saving trillions from death and slavery.; The birth of Planet Arakko also enraged the human wealthy genius Feilong, who joined and started funding the anti-mutant organization known as Orchis, since he had invested his resources to terraform Mars and adapt his body to it but was outperformed by the mutant activities. After colonizing Phobos for Orchis, Feilong was welcomed by the X-Man Sunfire, who asked him to leave the Arakkii territory. Feilong refused and managed to consolidate his control, attracting the attention of Isca the Unbeaten of the Great Ring of Arakko. Later, by identifying a live subject held hostage on Phobos, the X-Men sent Wolverine to retrieve them. There, she located the prisoner Lady Deathstrike, but was found by Feilong. The X-Men were able to rescue both of them from the Orchis base.; The X-Men also dealt with humans interested not only in Planet Arakko, but also in the Krakoan Resurrection Protocols, namely Daily Bugler reporter Ben Urich and a mad scientist associated with Orchis Doctor Stasis. With many well-known deceased mutants being seen alive and well, Urich approached and investigated the X-Men for explanations. In their activities, the X-Men went on missions all over the world to help fight criminals, such as preventing the Reavers from influencing Mexican politics. This attracted the attention of Doctor Stasis, who directly attacked the group with his bizarre chimeric creations. Doctor Stasis managed to assassinate Cyclops in a very public ordeal in one of his attacks, forcing Cyclops to adopt the identity of Captain Krakoa after being resurrected. This decision was made by the Quiet Council as a way not to reveal the secrets of the Krakoan resurrections, much to Cyclops' discontentment which disrupted the X-Men's relationship with the Quiet Council even further. Later, when secretly contacting Urich, Cyclops learned the reporter had his memories about his investigations erased. After the X-Men saved a cruising ship from being hijacked by M.O.D.O.K. and A.I.M., Cyclops learned that Synch was responsible for tampering with Urich's memories with the intention of protecting mutants. Cyclops and Synch directly hunted Doctor Stasis, eventually learning he was a version of Mister Sinister. Stasis fled and, following this encounter, Cyclops and Synch were prompted to reveal to Urich what had transpired. Mutantkind's status as a immortal species was publicly revealed.; ===Judgment Day===; At the second Hellfire Gala, the truth about mutant resurrection escalated tensions not only between humans and mutants, but also between the X-Men and the Quiet Council of Krakoa. To ease such tensions, Cyclops shared with Frost the connection between Sinister and Stasis, asking for her support as the X-Men's enemies had been able to circle them. In retribution, Frost shared the Quiet Council's secret about Moira being involved with the creation of Krakoa and her betrayal after a schism with Xavier. During a new election, Cyclops, Jean Grey and Synch remained on the team. Firestar was recommended by Frost as a way to rekindle her ties with mutantkind. Forge was recommended by Cyclops, since he had been working on a secret project for the Quiet Council. As a consequence, Forge recommended Havok, in order to antagonize his brother Cyclops. To round up the group, Magik suggested herself, in search of new adventures. The previous X-Men maintained close ties with the team and carried out parallel adventures. For instance, Rogue was assigned to protect Manifold as a suggestion of Destiny, and Sunfire went to Otherworld to rescue the voice of Arakko, Redroot,; Mutantkind's immortality sparked the ire of the Eternal prime Druig, who wished to destroy their Resurrection Protocols being backed by Moira. While humans backlashed at the X-Men for not having rights to be returned to life, the Eternals ravaged Krakoa. The X-Men resisted, being forced to fight the powerful Hex. The X-Men made Eternal allies who disagreed with Druig. However, following the Avengers' intervention, the Celestial Progenitor was revived and put Earth under cosmic trial. Within a day, judgment would take place, at the risk of the world's destruction. The X-Men unsuccessfully attempted to end the Progenitor. The X-Men kept preventing catastrophic events all over the world regardless, proving their worth.; The X-Men then telepathically tampered with the Eternal Uni-Mind in order to elect the Avenger Starfox as the new Eternal Prime and defeat Druig politically. Starfox attempted to change the Progenitor's judgment, with no avail: Earth was sentenced to death. As Earth was ravaged by the Celestial, mutantkind joined forces with Avengers and Eternals to oppose the Celestial. They did the unimaginable by sharing the Resurrection Protocols with human heroes to resist the enemy and even asked for help with Moira and Orchis, who dealt with casualties and were seen as heroes to the public eye. Having been able to infiltrate the Celestial, Avengers, X-Men and Eternals communed with the Progenitor. They were able to convince it to sacrifice itself, relenting its power to Ajak. The destruction it had caused was reverted, saving the world. In the end, Jean Grey ran the Phoenix Foundation parallel to the X-Men to bring the gift of resurrection to those in need.; Forge's secret agenda was revealed to the X-Men as Project Blackbox, a project designed to trap the Children of the Vault into a virtual reality. However, after identifying that Darwin was still trapped inside the Vault following a previous Krakoan mission into the Vault alongside Synch and Wolverine, the X-Men went to his rescue. As the X-Men covered him, Forge entered the Vault. He was followed by the Child Serafina, but convinced her to let him go as a test. Meanwhile, the X-Men battled Perro, who had been accidentally freed by a reckless Havok, but was soon put back in stasis. Due to his misconduct, Havok chose to resign. Instead of Darwin, Forge rescued the duplicate of Wolverine who had spent centuries of her life with Synch in the Vault. This aged version of Wolverine returned to the Treehouse with the X-Men, joining Synch and her young cloned version in a mission against vampires. After discussing matters with her duplicate, the version of Wolverine who emerged from the Vault joined the team under the codename Talon.; ===Fall of Krakoa===; In horror, after the other X-Men monitored Orchis' new orbital station, the Bloom, they received a distress call from an infected Corsair about the Brood causing mayhem in space. Corsair was healed by the X-Men as they attempted to resist the Brood. Meanwhile, Jean Grey contacted Broo, who had consumed the King Egg and was in charge of the Brood's hive mind. She found out that a vengeful Nightmare manipulated Broo into employing the Brood for destruction and put him out of commission. However, the X-Men could not prevent the Brood from infecting and murdering countless alien refugees. The X-Men reunited in Knowhere, which had been retrieved by Forge, to discuss a solution to the Brood crisis. Cyclops chose to exterminate the Brood in retaliation for their crimes, something Jean Grey vehemently opposed to, causing a schism between their X-Men. The X-Men joined Captain Marvel and her allies, including some Krakoans, to put an end on the erratic Brood. Orchis extended its influence on Earth, using soft power to harm mutants. The X-Men kept tackling their operations, eventually learning they developed adamantium-based Sentinels using skeletons of Wolverine clones, and giant murder machines using Stark technology, which had been seized by Feilong. In between these investigations, the X-Men answered a call from Gameworld, where the Amenthi beast Pogg Ur-Pogg caused trouble. In between these battles, Cyclops and Jean Grey maintained their ideological debate about the courses of action for the X-Men.; For the third edition of the Hellfire Gala, the X-Men attended to present the world with Forge's ideas of improving urban technology around the globe. The new formation of X-Men was announced as well, formed by Dazzler, Jubilee, Frenzy, Prodigy, Cannonball and Juggernaut and led by Synch and Talon, as per Cyclops' and Jean Grey's recommendation after their retirement. Before any debut however, Nimrod interrupted the event and massacred most of the new X-Men and many other mutants, including Iceman. Cyclops was then ambushed and captured at the Treehouse while Jean Grey was poisoned by Moira. Before perishing, Grey forged false memories about Firestar being an Orchis' double agent to allow her to infiltrate the organization. Having sabotaged Krakoan technology and medicines, Orchis posited an ultimatum, threatening Xavier with murdering humans and blame it on Krakoa. With no alternative, Xavier had to evacuate the Krakoan society off the planet through Krakoan Gateways. However, Orchis had also hacked the Gateways, and the mutant population was nowhere to be found after being telepathically forced by Xavier to vanish. Only some Krakoan mutants survived the ordeal, escaping through the sacrifice of the teleporter Lourdes Chantel. The survivors, oriented by Emma Frost, organized themselves to counterattack Orchis and avenge Krakoa, keeping the dream of the X-Men alive.; Synch and Talon recovered in the Morlock Tunnels alongside the chimera warrior Rasputin IV and the teenage hero recently revealed as a mutant Ms. Marvel, who had been recruited by Frost. Another agent was Kate Pryde, who rebranded herself as the dark Shadowkat following Orchis' attack. In Arakko, Shadowkat contacted the mutant Woofer, informing him that any mutant who resisted Orchis should be considered a member of the X-Men, tasking him with finding Polaris, Sunfire, and Forge. In an attempt to execute Firestar in the Bloom, Shadowkat learned her status as a infiltrator as well as found Cyclops and Juggernaut captive. Firestar staged a fight against Juggernaut in order to have him escape with intel about Orchis to deliver it to the X-Men. The data contained information about renegade mutants who escaped the diaspora. Shadowkat and Ms. Marvel searched for them, being joined by Wolverine. Their location was Doctor Doom's Latveria. Known as the Seven Daggers of Latveria, the group of mutants was loyal to their liege who rejected Krakoa. Following a brief confrontation, the X-Men found in the Seven Daggers allies against Orchis. In a desperate need for resources against Orchis, Synch and Talon traveled to Counter-Earth to acquire bio-hacking technology from the High Evolutionary to cure those afflicted by the mutant drugs Orchis had tampered with. The mission to retrieve the device was successful, but Talon was killed in action. With Spider-Man's help, a machine was designed to deactivate the harm caused by Krakoan medicines. Despite Nimrod attempting to disturb their plan, the X-Men were able to slow him in time to undo Orchis' damage.; In Paris, Cyclops stood trial under Orchis' watch. The X-Men executed a plan to invade the courthouse, but were not able to pass through Orchis' defenses. Alternatively, the X-Men deployed counter measures. Polaris was able to infest the Bloom with an army of Brood commanded by Broo, Juggernaut protected Krakoa from being held by Orchis, and Emma Frost assisted her husband Tony Stark in combating Feilong's Sentinels. Moreover, Rogue and Gambit, after saving the cosmic teleporter Manifold, were able to assemble a legion of mutant warriors from Planet Arakko guided by Apocalypse to join the war against Orchis on Earth. Victory came when Emma Frost, Shadowkat, and Firestar intercepted Doctor Stasis and put an end to his life of abominable deeds. Ironically, by having realised the artificial intelligences in Orchis kept a hidden agenda, Orchis' commander Alia Gregor was responsible for Cyclops' liberation. Afraid of what transpired in Sentinel City, Gregor brought Cyclops with Magik's assistance to the Summer House for investigation, where they found Nimrod. On Madripoor, the director of Orchis, Killian Devo, was betrayed by Sebastian Shaw, who exposed his location to the X-Men. With the Seven Daggers' intervention, Devo was executed. As Apocalypse led his army of mutant rebels to resist Orchis and protect the remains of Krakoa, the X-Men reassembled under Cyclops' guidance. Their main mission was preventing Nimrod from deploying the Sentinel City as a weapon to allow machines to consume the planet. Counting with important additions, such as Storm and Magneto, the X-Men were able to dismantle Nimrod and subdue the Omega Sentinel, effectively ending Orchis for good.; As the X-Men battled in different fronts, Professor Xavier concocted plans by his own. In order to gain access to Moira, he had forged a desperate alliance with Orchis. In fact, Xavier wished to prevent the rise of the artificial intelligence Enigma, which could destroy reality. His betrayal was taken badly by the X-Men, who planned to stop him at any costs. Most of the mutant warriors from Krakoa were brought back to life by the Five through the White Hot Room, including Jean Grey, who was reborn as Phoenix. This had been part of Xavier's plan all along. After convincing Moira to join him in eradicating Enigma, Xavier was able to give Phoenix access to the malevolent creature and burn it out of existence. However, the dream of Krakoa was forever lost, being sacrificed and abandoned so the mutant heroes could fight. Xavier was arrested due to his connection to Orchis, much to the X-Men's disappointment. Meanwhile, Krakoa resurfaced, emerging from the White Hot Room as a thriving community that had evolved for fifteen years in the alternative plan of existence. This sparked the fury of Apocalypse, who refused to allow the Krakoans to live as a nation of weaklings. The X-Men joined forces one last time to stop his bloodlust attack. Afterwards, Krakoa returned to the White Hot Room to resume their utopic story. The X-Men disbanded and mutantkind was scattered all over the globe, being forced to reintegrate into a world that hated and feared them.; ===From the Ashes===; Months later the fall of Krakoa and Orchis, Cyclops decided to rebuild the X-Men. Alongside Magneto, he repurposed a former Orchis Sentinel Factory deactivated by the Avengers in the town of Merle, Alaska. However, a Wild Sentinel was activated on Merle, prompting the two X-Men to stop it. During the event, which became known as the "Iron Night", Magneto displayed instability in his powers, forcing Cyclops to neutralize him. As a result, he became paraplegic. Another addition was partially amnesiac duplicate of Beast, who worked as the base director. Cyclops led a task force comprising of Magik, Psylocke, Juggernaut, Idie Okonkwo, who adopted the name Temper, and Quentin Quire. Aboard the flying ship named the Marauder, the X-Men could cover long distances. Magneto became a controversial figure in the Factory, with the resident healer Xorn and the gardener Glob. The relationship between the X-Men and the community of Merle was subtly tense. One of the X-Men's opponents were remnants of an Orchis' division named the Fourth School, which comprised of agents with enhancements derived both from technological advancements and mutant genetics. In Santo Marco, the X-Men rescued Wolverine from Fourth School as they experimented on him. The disappointed Wolverine expressed his lack of interest in joining Cyclops and his X-Men. Instead, he traveled to Mexico, where he teamed up with Rogue and Gambit against the dragon Sadurang. After meeting Nightcrawler in a hospital in Mississippi, where the kid telepath Harvey X passed away, the group of former X-Men realized mutantkind needed heroes to fight for them and marched to a hidden orphanage, Haven House, in the bayous of Louisiana. Haven House was kept by an old associate of Gambit, Marcus St. Juniors, and his family. There, led by Rogue, they decided to keep Xavier's dream alive by helping mutants in danger.; A consequence of the experiments carried out by the Fourth School was the activation of mutants at adult age, triggering a response to the X-Men. In San Francisco, the X-Men came into contact with the powerful illusionist Ben Liu, offering shelter in the Factory. Anti-mutant hysteria rose up with such incidents, prompting Trevor Fitzroy to revamp O-Force as the new Upstarts, a unit of mutant-hunting mercenaries. In Detroit, the X-Men saved another adult mutant, named Jen Starkey, from them following a brutal battle. Fitzroy secretly worked alongside the Sugar Man, who was particularly interested in investigating how the activation of the mutant gene worked. In order to gather information, Psylocke and Quire psychically probed into Liu's mind, learning that behind the Fourth School and the tampering of the mutant gene was 3K, a secret cabal of masterminds, whose one of the members was Cassandra Nova. Parallel to this, being interested in the activities of the X-Men concerning the activation of adult mutants, Agent of O*N*E, Lundqvist, closely kept his eyes on Cyclops. In an attempt to dismantle Cerebro in the Factory, O*N*E agents were fended off by the X-Men.; In Haven House, the X-Men were met by a group of four teenage mutants, the Outliers, who were being hunted. When considering options to address their situation, they were introduced by Jubilee, who informed them the former Xavier Institute had been transformed into a high-level security prison for mutants where Xavier was kept captive. The chief warden of the Graymalkin Prison was Dr. Corina Ellis, who had sent the monstrous Sarah Gaunt to capture young mutants across the country. Gaunt ambushed and brutalized Wolverine in the woods. As a response, Rogue personally dueled Gaunt, while Gambit, Nightcrawler and Jubilee protected Haven House and the Outliers from her brainwashed army of cultists. Having remnants of Harvey X's essence, Rogue was able to unravel the psyche of Gaunt and force her to cease her attack. The X-Men adapted to settle in New Orleans while training and preparing the Outliers to protect themselves in a world that hates and fears them.; As Beast and Jubilee fell to Dr. Ellis' forces and became inmates at the Graymalkin Prison, Cyclops had his X-Men raid the center to destroy it. They were initially opposed by the Trustees, a group of mutants who became mentally reconditioned to serve the Graymalkin Prison. Additionally, they also crossed paths with Rogue and her group of X-Men. The two squadrons disagreed on how to address the situation, raising tensions and prompting an unreasonable fight, but ultimately found in the Trustees a threat in common. It was revealed that a psychic named Scurvy, who acted on Ellis' orders, inflicted a telepathic turmoil upon the X-Men and controlled the Trustees. However, even without the psychic cloudiness, Cyclops and Rogue disagreed when it came to Xavier's fate. Cyclops believed he was not to be freed, for the X-Men had freedom without his manipulations, while Rogue defended they should assist their former mentor. Their schism was interrupted by Scurvy, who attacked the X-Men with his mental abilities. Nevertheless, Xavier was freed by Psylocke and Nightcrawler and battled Scurvy. Ellis cornered the X-Men, who would attack her did she not retreat. Beast and Jubilee were released and the X-Men departed, but Xavier chose to remain an inmate of Ellis.; A repercussion of the raid involved O*N*E sieging the Factory. While Cyclops dialogued with Lundqvist, he dispatched King Bedlam and his Hellions to neutralize facilities belonging to O*N*E in diverse locations and destroy their data and technology as an indication of a possible war between the X-Men and the American government. In the frigid Canada, Corsair crashed his ship to contact the X-Men. He was followed by an Acanti ship ran by bounty hunters guided by Dr. Xanto Starblood. Believing he was a fugitive, the X-Men opposed them only to learn the actual target was Cyclops. Amidst the commotion, Alpha Flight joined the fight to address the crisis. The Acanti was destroyed thanks to the cojoined efforts of the X-Men and Alpha Flight. Meanwhile, in Haven House, the X-Men planned to mentor the Outliers through a personalized approach. When the adults and the teenagers went shopping, the Wolfpack, a cadre of Sentinel dogs controlled by Larry Trask at Graymalkin Prison, was dispatched to destroy the Outliers. Following a bloody battle against the mechanical hounds, the X-Men and the Outliers successfully finished them.; Parallel to the activities of the two X-Men teams, Kitty Pryde settled for an ordinary life as a barista in Chicago, not wanting to be connected to her former mutant teammates. However, although she wished not to get involved in mutant issues, she stumbled upon teenage mutants who faced intolerance in the city. This prompted the intervention of Emma Frost, who wanted to take in the kids as pupils. Frost and Pryde agreed to mentor them together, being joined by Iceman, who had been secretly sent by Rogue to check on Pryde. As such, they revived the hope the X-Men carried on to next generations. The teenagers became interns at Verate, a company run by the mutant Sheldon Xenos, that collected genetic material for personalized guidance, which sparked doubt about the ethics of their actions. In fact, Xenos was Mister Sinister in disguise. This led the X-Men to combat him. Frost bested Sinister in a telepathic fight, leading to his retreat. Moreover, Lockheed was found in his laboratory and rescued.; The surfacing of the organization known as the Flatscanners was linked to former Purifiers and the occurrence of mutants being murdered. Banshee, as a former federal agent, investigated the killings. One of the victims was his former student from Generation X, Husk, whose brother Lewis had become radicalized by the aggressors. Being teleported to Husk's family's farmhouse by Gateway, Banshee joined Husk to defeat the criminals. The assaults were coordinated by the X-Cutioner. Banshee and Husk went to Cassidy Keep in Ireland to assess the crisis related to the Flatscanners. Meanwhile, another former member of Generation X, also became a target of the Flatscanners, due to his job as a working construction in Chicago. His jealous co-worker Nick Syznalksi, had been turned into a monster by the Flatscanners through a dangerous gamma isotope. Gateway dispatched Banshee and Husk to rescue Skin from Syznalski. The army became involved in the fight and Syznalski was killed in action. The situation was solved by Emma Frost and her fine telepathic intervention. Back to Cassidy Keep, Banshee, Husk and Skin decided to combat anti-mutant activity as an astonishing team of X-Men.; A major crisis erupted in the Shi'ar Empire as renegade factions wished to depose the Majestrix Xandra from the throne. In desperation, she telepathically reached out for her father, Xavier. He was able to communicate with her, but, being intensely confused due to drugging and to an anomalous tumour in his brain, he had no control over his telepathic powers or memory. Gaunt was convinced to enable his escape. Seeing no alternative, Dr. Ellis contacted Rogue for help. Xavier incapacitated his former pupils and went on a run to assist his daughter. Professor X sought assistance with Storm at her Sanctuary in Atlanta. Cyclops led his X-Men team to retrieve him in order to incarcerate him. This caused Storm to join forces with Xavier against the X-Men. Coincidentally corrupted by Eternity, Storm easily defeated the X-Men, gravely wounded Cyclops and cast most of them away to the ruins of Utopia. Quire engaged Xavier in psychic combat, allowing Beast to incapacitate him, while Psylocke managed to restore Storm's reason. She agreed to let the X-Men take Xavier in as long as they did not return him to Graymalkin Prison. On Utopia, however, the governmental mutant team X-Factor tackled the X-Men to collect Professor X. During the chaotic battle, Xavier recovered and disappeared from the location. He was able to resurrect Lilandra, the former Majestrix and mother of Xandra, using the Resurrection Protocols for the last time. Lilandra performed surgery on Xavier to excise the tumor, but their flying saucer was tracked by Cyclops and his X-Men. Sage, who had support from Storm, deployed the teleporter Pastor John Wraith to cover for Xavier. In the end, Professor X was able to converse with his first student and explained that the crimes he had been accused of committing were a deception to protect mutantkind. Storm neutralized Cyclops, who was ultimately rescued by Rogue. With the X-Men's blessing, Professor Xavier bid farewell and marched to the stars, announcing his full retirement and his wished of all his X-Men to be united.; The Outliers were drawn to a mysterious obsidian monument in the swamp, which was revealed to be a protected cemetery for mutant bodies known as the Artery, where corpses could be buried without being desecrated by haters. The site was protected by the legendary Man-Thing. The guardian of the graveyard was Lady Henrietta Benjamin, a centenarian mutant, who kept the access to a supernatural city of the dead named Penumbra away from the physical world. The Outliers entered Penumbra, where souls of those who have wronged mutant relatives resided. The ruler of Penumbra was Shuvahrak, the Voice of Darkness, who wished to get free by having one of the Outliers to replace her. The X-Men followed the Outliers to Penumbra, where they fought the hordes of the undead until destroying Shuvahrak and bring upon peace. It was revealed Lady Henrietta had originally summoned the Outliers to Haven House since they have powers connected to afterlife and that St. Juniors was one of her descendants. Lady Henrietta could finally enjoy the tranquillity her people needed. Shortly after, the X-Men became worried about the emergence of Mutina a sadistic influencer with an anti-mutant agenda, starring in horror films and sharing trends to encourage violence. The Outliers and the X-Men tracked her only to realize she could be a mutant herself. Despite facing these adversities, the X-Men also were met with appraisal by a friendly initiative carried out by the government of New Orleans to thank for their collaboration, this deepened the relationship with the X-Men with the mayor of New Orleans.; ===Age of Revelation===; A young girl from Merle named Piper Cobb sought the X-Men for sanctuary since she believed to be a mutant in an anti-mutant household. However, the X-Men could not confirm her condition and sent her back home. She went missing, leading the X-Men to search for her in the cold wilderness surrounding the Factory. During the mission, the X-Men were ambushed by a member of 3K, the huntsman Wyre, who detonated the Marauder when it was piloted by Quire. Meanwhile, Okonkwo was able to find Cobb. Cobb shared her body with a mutant twin who had been thought to have vanished via resorption. Having collected the dead body of the Acanti ship that belong to Dr. Starblood, she gained independence. Cassandra Nova communed with the newly formed creature, sharing her similar origins and manipulating her to attack the town. The X-Men attempted to reason with her with little success. During the conflict, 3K sent out their own team of X-Men composed of former agents of the Fourth School. The two teams of mutants battled each other, while Magneto, after having his illness temporarily neutralized by Beast, used the Wild Sentinel to stop the behemoth who was in fact teenage mutant girl. Cyclops defeated Scharzchild, the leader of X-Men team assembled by 3K, leaving them with no orders to follow and stopping their actions, since they were thrown into internal discussions. Meanwhile, Wyre took advantage of the chaos to infiltrate the Factory. Shockingly, instead of causing damage, he offered a position in 3K for Beast. Then, he retreated with the X-Men, interrupting the attack.

+History:
+===The Mutant Messiah===; The birth of the first mutant since the decimation of mutantkind sparked a race between different groups for the possession of the messianic infant. After the X-Men learned that Cable had secured the child, Cyclops organized a group of lethal mutant trackers to hunt him and, if needed be, take him down. Led by Wolverine, the strike force was composed of X-23, Warpath, Hepzibah, Caliban, and Wolfsbane. The operation was ironically baptized X-Force, the same name of Cable's former group of mutant extremist militants.; In their investigation, Wolverine feared Warpath could defect due to his former association with Cable, but Wolfsbane was able to vouch for his presence. Caliban pinpointed Cable and the child from her birthplace in Cooperstown, Alaska. In Alberta, Canada, X-Force found Cable engaged in battle Lady Deathstrike and the Reavers. During the ensuing fight, X-23 incapacitated Deathstrike, while Caliban was shot dead by a Reaver in an attempt to protect Warpath. The commotion allowed Cable to escape with the child in X-Force's Blackbird. Without Caliban, the X-Men repaired Cerebra to locate Cable, finding him in Forge's Eagle Plaza, from where the Marauders were able to kidnap the mutant messiah.; As X-Force prepared themselves to confront their opponents, Warpath tried to remove Hepzibah from the team, fearing she might share Caliban's fate, but Wolverine disapproved his attempts. X-Force teamed up with Bishop and resumed their mission by going to Muir Island. There, they were ambushed by the Marauders. In a chaotic confrontation, all members of the X-Men joined a final battle for the child. In the end, Cable and his ally, Professor Xavier, got hold of the baby. However, the mutants were hunted by a vicious Predator X. X-Force was tasked by Cyclops to take the beast down, and Wolverine was responsible for the final blow against it. Professor Xavier then convinced Cyclops to allow Cable to escape to the future with the child for her protection. Cable teleported to the future, just after Bishop revealed himself as a traitor and fired a round at the messiah. The shot missed her and hit Professor Xavier in the head instead, and Bishop escaped. With Xavier dead, Cyclops declared the X-Men disbanded.; ===Secret Killers===; Although the X-Men were no more, Cyclops kept protecting his species. Upon learning the anti-mutant leader of the Purifiers, Matthew Risman, had been making a move to strike at the decadent mutant population, Cyclops reactivated X-Force as a black ops squad, keeping it a vile secret from the X-Men. Wolfsbane volunteered to gather information about her former guardian Reverend Craig, Warpath wished for revenge for Caliban's death, and X-23 was merely a soldier in need of orders. Wolverine reluctantly accepted to be in charge of the team at Cyclops' request, setting base at Angel's Aerie in Colorado without his knowledge.; X-Force's first mission involved infiltrating a North Dakota S.H.I.E.L.D. facility to root out a group of Purifiers who had infiltrated the base and stolen valuable technology required to rebuild the Sentinel known as Bastion. Unexpectedly, X-Force found out Risman had Wolfsbane captive. X-23 detonated the site, but failed to apprehend Risman or save Wolfsbane. When debriefing the mission with Cyclops, X-Force realized his orders were simply to execute Risman and not to save Wolfsbane. X-Force then went on a killing spree, offing several Purifiers. This led Bastion to implement an alternative plan by acquiring the Technarchy entity known as the Magus and using it to create a Human Council composed of leaders of anti-mutant organizations, both live and dead.; Risman defected and had an agenda of his own with his ally, the mysterious Eli Bard. They drugged and brainwashed Wolfsbane and had X-Force take her back to Angel's Aerie. The healer Elixir was convoked to cure her physically, but upon waking up she brutally maimed the owner of the cabin, Angel. X-23 was unable to harm Wolfsbane, who extracted Angel's wings and returned them to Risman. Risman used the techno-organic technology in Angel's wings to create a choir of winged soldiers, while at the same time a wounded Angel succumbed to his Archangel identity. In Chicago, Risman's choir went on war against Bastion and his Purifiers, but the deadly Archangel followed them seeking for revenge. X-Force intervened in the Purifiers' own inner battle. Meanwhile, a mad Wolfsbane devoured Reverend Craig as he tormented her. X-23 accomplished the mission by eliminating Risman, but Bard escaped with samples of the Magus; Archangel violently eradicated the choir; and Wolverine was unable to destroy Bastion, who retreated. As X-Force recovered, Cyclops tasked them with destroying the Human Council members.; However, their next target turned out to be the teleporting mutant called the Vanisher, who had located a vial of the deadly Legacy Virus from one of Mister Sinister's hideouts. While Warpath took a brief leave of absence and Wolfsbane was withdrawn from the team due to the stress of their last mission, the volatile Archangel went on field as an X-Force agent. In Tokyo, X-Force met the Vanisher, but he escaped because the operation was interrupted by Domino, who had also been on the Vanisher's track. With Domino's help, X-Force had Elixir give Vanisher a brain tumor to blackmail him into working for the team in order to reacquire the virus vial. X-Force went on a battle with Marauders clones and Cameron Hodge's Right for the item. During the confrontation, X-Force's enemies were defeated, but X-23 was infected with the virus. Elixir cured her and X-Force believed the Legacy Virus to be destroyed.; ===War for the Messiah===; Little did X-Force know that the Right had located other samples of the virus, which Bastion modified to drive mutant powers out of control, indiscriminately resulting in anti-mutant sentiment. Under the unwilling direction of the Leper Queen's Sapien League, the mutants Beautiful Dreamer and Fever Pitch were set to commit terrorist suicide killings during Graydon Creed's Friends of Humanity rallies. X-Force identified that the Leper Queen was behind the acts and had her as a main target for she had captured more mutants. Though X-Force was in position to rescue the victims, Cyclops had Beast located Cable and Bishop in the future timestream and, despite Wolverine's objections, Cyclops forcibly sent the team into the future, interrupting the mission against the Human Council.; Cyclops dispatched X-Force to the future to help Cable protect the mutant messiah, now older and named Hope, from Bishop. There, X-Force found a hazarded Earth and could not teleport back to the present at will, though their time in the future was limited. They were immediately joined by an insane Deadpool. After finding Cable, X-Force learned that Stryfe ruled supreme in that timeline. With Stryfe attacking Cable and X-Force, Hope and Warpath were ultimately kidnapped. Meanwhile, Archangel disappeared, being summoned by his former master, the moribund Apocalypse, who was nursed back to health.; Inside the Celestial Ship, Deadpool revealed to X-Force that a mutant kept a temporal field which prevented teleportation and time-travelling, the field was generated by the vegetative mutant Kiden Nixon. At the same time, Cable, Wolverine and Elixir went to Hope's and Warpath's rescue in a battle against Stryfe, who had kept Hope safe from Bishop. The fight only served for Stryfe to learn the importance of Hope. During a final confrontation between Cable and X-Force against Stryfe and Bishop, X-Force's time in the future expired as Stryfe had the advantage. Domino mercy-killed Nixon in order to be able to return to the present safely, something the Vanisher promptly did. Archangel led Apocalypse to the battle, causing Stryfe's and Bishop's brutal defeats. Out of respect for Archangel, Apocalypse relinquished Hope. With Cable and Hope safe, X-Force returned to their proper timeline.; Returning slightly earlier than they had left, X-Force was successful in stopping the attacks of the Leper Queen. X- 23 narrowly saved Boom Boom and executed the Leper Queen, but she was captured by rogue H.A.M.M.E.R. agents in the process and was taken back to the Facility to be tortured by her former handler Kimura. Meanwhile, X-Force impeded the young mutants Hellion and Surge from detonating at the United Nations Headquarters during an anti-mutant speech performed by the Sentinel manufacturers Bolivar Trask and Stephen Lang. Though successful in preventing the incidents, Elixir had to purge the virus from the victims' and the strain left him comatose. Moreover, Wolverine confronted Cyclops about his extremist decisions regrading X-Force.; ===Necrosha===; With Norman Osborn directing his H.A.M.M.E.R. against mutantkind in San Francisco, mutants were kept detained on Alcatraz Island and subjected to Dark Beast's experiments. Cyclops had the Cuckoo Irma voluntarily arrested as a beacon to have Magik teleport X-Force to the prison and cause a riot when fighting Osborn's X-Men. Their intervention allowed the majority of the remaining mutant populous to regroup, oppose Osborn and relocate on the island of Utopia. After defeating the Dark X-Men, X-Force sometimes used their Alcatraz base. On Utopia, X-Force attempted to track X-23 with no success, but found a debilitated Wolfsbane with her lover Hrimhari after they had been attacked by Frost Giants. X-23 was eventually able to escape the Facility with the help of Agent Alisande Morales, which ultimately led X-Force to her rescue.; Around this period, Domino was spotted seeing the mysterious Red Hulk in his civilian identity. The deadly Red Hulk formed a team of mercenaries to hunt Domino down. They found her, but X-Force intervened to help their teammate. During the bloody fight between the teams of killers, the assassin Elektra suggested to Domino that someone else was pulling their strings, and the two women vanished from the battle. The fight was interrupted by a Red She-Hulk, causing X-Force to abandon the confrontation to look for Domino and Elektra. In the end, X-Force helped Domino convince the Red Hulk she had been implicated in the situation through Silver Sable and that she did not know his identity. The Red Hulk agreed to leave them alone, but threatened X-Force by reminding them that he now knew about their secret existence.; Although away from Osborn's jurisdiction, Utopia was not completely safe. During Warpath's brief retreat from X-Force, he had traveled to his family home in Camp Verde, Arizona, where he clashed with a vicious Demon Bear. Teaming up with the Ghost Rider, who taught Warpath how to hurt spirits, the beast was subdued. Warpath took an enchanted Blade from it. From the Ghost Rider, Warpath also learned the truth about Eli Bard and his connection to the succubus Selene. Bard had corrupted the Magus' transmode technology with dark magics, reviving several deceased mutants as compliant zombies. A revived Caliban tracked mutants, dead and alive, to form an army to serve Selene and her Inner Circle and siege Utopia. The mutants living on Utopia, including X-Force, were punished by dead allies and enemies who were slaves to Selene.; Selene set up base on the ravaged island of Genosha, a burial site for millions of mutants Selene renamed as Necrosha. Her plans were to resurrect its population and feast on their souls to ascend as a goddess. In search for the dagger Warpath had taken since it was an integral part of the planned ritual, Selene's Inner Circle invaded Utopia, killing some of its inhabitants. X-Force battled them in a brutal conflict. However, they lost and the Inner Circle had Warpath kidnapped and the blade collected. Simultaneously, Hrimhari traded his life with the Goddess of Death Hela for Elixir's in order to restore Wolfsbane to health. Wolverine dispatched X-Force to Necrosha, and the Vanisher was able to rescue Warpath while X-Force made their way through an endless horde of zombies. However, through her macabre ritual, Selene became omnipotent. Using the Ghost Rider's technique, Warpath rendered X-Force immune to her powers and was able to carve the enchanted dagger into her black heart. After the hard-fought battle, the more tender Elixir and Wolfsbane were out of the team while X-23's and Warpath's future in the group was left uncertain.; ===Return of the Messiah===; As Utopia recovered from Selene's attacks, Cable and Hope arrived on the present in Westchester and were registered on Cerebra. Cyclops immediately had Domino and the Vanisher to hid in San Francisco while the rest of the X-Force was added to an X-Men strike team to collect them. This X-Men team found Cable and Hope being raided by the Sapien League under Bastion's and his Human Council's orders. The X-Force members dealt with the anti-mutant agents with lethal force, causing horror in their teammates. As such, X-Force's existence was partially exposed. With additional pressure put on Cyclops, he admitted the operation much to his teammates' disapproval.; Bastion kept employing all of his resources to destroy Hope. However, thanks to Nightcrawler's sacrifice, she was able to reach Utopia. This triggered Bastion to implement his secondary plan. He systematically eliminated mutant teleporters, leading the Vanisher to defect, although Stephen Lang still managed to off him. As a second step, Bastion had a large and impenetrable dome built over the San Francisco Bay Area to cut off Utopia from escape or help, trapping Hope and most of the mutantkind inside it. Once the energy dome was activated, an extradimensional portal from a potential future where mutantkind had been defeated was summoned to allow an endless army of Nimrod-Series Sentinels in.; Self-repairing and able to adapt to mutant powers, the Nimrods were formidable opponents the X-Men were barely able to subdue. As a result, several X-Men sustained severe injuries. Cyclops envisioned a plan: to send the linguist Cypher to reprogram the Nimrods at their source using Cable's time-travelling technology. As such, X-Force was dispatch to ferry them in a one-way mission into the portal. X-Force found the Master Mold manufacturing unit that sent the Nimrods to the past, and Cypher deprogrammed the machines permanently. However, X-Force was trapped for the portal was not compatible with organic matter. Cable chose to have his Techno-Organic Virus consume him and, as a non-organic entity, he sacrificed himself to allow X-Force return to the present safe and sound.; Cable's death triggered the activation of Hope's mutant powers which she used to obliterate Bastion, the Human Council and the trapping dome. In the aftermath of Bastion's attack, Cyclops took full responsibility for X-Force as his fellow X-Men discussed his decisions with him. He was convinced that a murderous squad was not necessary anymore and unsanctioned X-Force. However, Wolverine decided to maintain X-Force running independently, without the consent or the knowledge of Cyclops or any other of his teammates.; ===Apocalypse===; Wolverine formed his uncanny X-Force team with Archangel's assistance, basing it at the secret Cavern-X. The team was supposed to lethally deal with threats to mutantkind with no one else knowing about it. Archangel's old flame, the deadly telepath Psylocke, helped him deal with his split personality and became part of the operation. Wolverine invited the resourceful living weapon Fantomex for the group as well, giving him a cause, alongside his intelligent UFO partner E.V.A.. To round up the killing squad, Archangel hired the mercenary with a mouth Deadpool. X-Force's main objective was to keep track the actions of Clan Akkaba. In his mission, Deadpool learned that Akkaba had resurrected Apocalypse, prompting X-Force to assemble.; In Egypt, X-Force rescued Deadpool, recognizing Apocalypse's Ship and battling on of the Final Horsemen of War. X-Force pinpointed the Ship on the Blue Area of the Moon. As they attempted to strike at Akkaba, War and the other Horsemen, Famine, Pestilence, and Death, defeated them. Through deceitful misdirection, X-Force tricked the Horsemen and infiltrated the Ship. There, Psylocke found Apocalypse's quarters, but learned he was only but a child to be indoctrinated. She found herself unable to harm a kid and decided to protect him from X-Force. Initially, Archangel and Wolverine wished to oppose her and destroy Apocalypse, but were ultimately convinced that the best solution was to take care of the boy. Amidst the debate, Fantomex simply made the executive decision to shoot the child in the head, much to the rest of the team's horror. As the Ship teleported away, X-Force departed as a fractured group due to being involved in the death of a child.; X-Force then went to the X-Men's former base in Australia, where Gateway was being harassed by Lady Deathstrike's Reavers, who planned storm Utopia and slaughter its inhabitants. X-Force swiftly killed the majority of the Reavers, but two who made it to Utopia. Psylocke pursued them and proceeded to quietly kill them without the X-Men knowing. Wolverine confronted Lady Deathstrike, but just as he was about to kill her, her mind escaped her cybernetic body. After this mission, Wolverine and Psylocke discussed her dangerously succumbing to elation when on duty for X-Force. When Fantomex was attacked by interloping Deathloks from a world where Apocalypse had ascended who wished to take the laboratorial environment known as the World from him, he was assisted by a defective Deathlok. X-Force difficultly decided to join them in their war in order to save their teammate. They marched into the World to execute the Deathloks' leader, Father. There, they fought Deathlok versions of themselves. Ultimately, Deadpool assassinated Father despite his attempt to brainwash him. The World was secured and, secretly, Fantomex was growing an Apocalypse within it.; As Deadpool went missing when investigating psychic emanations from a nuclear facility, X-Force went to investigate, where they found the Shadow King. During a psychic war with Psylocke, the Shadow King accessed Archangel's mind and released his Death person. As Apocalypse's creation, the diabolical Archangel defeated the Shadow King and took the truth from Psylocke's memories. Returning to Cavern-X they were confronted by Magneto, who had discovered X-Force. His one demand in return for silence was that Wolverine kill an old Nazi who had tortured him in the concentration camps. The Shadow King wished for revenge and shared information about X-Force with the reporter Harper Simmons. Archangel was informed about it and decided to eliminate Simmons by himself. X-Force stopped him and realized they might have a serpent among them, ultimately choosing to restrain him.; In order to take care of him, they broke Dark Beast from jail, since he was from the alternate world known as the Age of Apocalypse and could provide information. They learned Apocalypse's death triggered an ascension protocol within the Death Seed that Apocalypse had planted in Archangel to turn him into a Horseman. He would become a new Apocalypse. To prevent his corruption, X-Force travelled to the Age of Apocalypse to claim a Life Seed from Dark Beast's lab and restore Archangel. Dark Beast betrayed X-Force and returned alone, but they were offered helped by the X-Men of the universe. In that world, Wolverine's counterpart, Weapon Omega, had become the new Apocalypse. He was in possession of that world's Gateway, who could teleport X-Force back home. Moreover, Life Seeds were expected to be found in the corpse of a Celestial Gardener. Members X-Force and the X-Men went on two missions to retrieve Gateway and the Life Seeds, but Weapon Omega's Black Legion fought them. Only one Life Seed was found, with the X-Men suffering unfortunate casualties. In a final fight against Weapon Omega, the X-Man Jean Grey decided to have Gateway send X-Force home with the only Seed, giving up the chance of recovering her ex-husband Weapon Omega.; During the short period they were away, Dark Beast released Archangel, who was coronated the lord of Clan Akkaba. X-Force returned to Cavern-X only to find it overrun by the new Archangel and his cultists, who wished for the temporal accelerating properties of the World and the Celestial-empowered Life Seed. In the ensuing battle, Wolverine was gravely injured by the destructive Genocide, the son of Apocalypse. Psylocke surrendered herself, being unable to execute Archangel. Fantomex, Deadpool and Deathlok had to retreat with Wolverine, leaving Archangel victorious.; Archangel wanted to scour all life from the world, replacing it with new life grown from the Life Seed. As a test run, a small town in Montana was obliterated by Genocide, followed by the region being trapped within the World. The enclosure became Tabula Rasa, an alien-like renewed existence through accelerated time, where X-Force battled Archangel and led to the demise of the Horseman of Death. Archangel replaced him with Psylocke, infecting her with a Death Seed from the Dreaming Celestial. Meanwhile, with Wolverine recovered, X-Force found Akkaba Metropolis on the North Pole after torturing Famine. However, they were subdued by interlopers from the Age of Apocalypse, namely Iceman and the Blob. In the fight, Deadpool was seemingly killed and Fantomex appeared to flee in E.V.A..; With his plans underway, Archangel set to reshape the world in his image, amplifying Genocide's power with the Doom Fountain. However, he did not anticipated Fantomex returning with the Age of Apocalypse X-Men. Jean Grey rid Psylocke of the Death presence within her. All the forces fought back against Archangel. Fantomex also introduced his secret weapon into the battle: the Apocalypse clone he had been growing, Evan, a.k.a. by the hero name Genesis. Fantomex had raised him with the watchdog Ultimaton in a simulation as his uncle, conditioning to detest the ideologies of Akkaba. Genesis and Archangel engaged in a fight, which served as a distraction for Psylocke to purify Archangel with the recovered Life Seed. With the X-Man Sunfire consuming the Doom Fountain energies, Akkaba succumbed and its followers vanished. From its ruins, Archangel resurfaced with his mind completely blank, as a tabula rasa, while Deathlok was able to recover Deadpool.; In the aftermath, the surviving X-Men were aided back to their reality in order to fight Weapon Omega, but Nightcrawler decided to stay to hunt Iceman and the Blob. Genesis and the renewed Angel were enrolled in Wolverine's new school, the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning. With this decision, Wolverine also shared X-Force's existence with his fellow headmasters, Kitty Pryde and Beast. A new chapter was to start for X-Force.; ===Final Execution===; Fantomex and Psylocke were kidnapped to Otherworld by the Captain Britain Corps, whose prime champion was Psylocke's twin, Captain Britain. Jean Grey's intervention had unexpectedly mind-linked Psylocke and Captain Britain, leading him to be aware X-Force's activities. Fantomex was put on trial for having killed the Apocalypse child. Otherworld was under attack from an extradimensional demon Horoam'ce, and Captain Britain invited Psylocke to the Corps to work as Lady Britain alongside their erratic older brother, Jamie. X-Force had Gateway transport them to Otherworld to help their teammates, but they were caught amidst the battles against Horoam'ce, joining troops led by Meggan. Fantomex was sentenced to be erased, and Psylocke assumed the Lady Britain mantle to rescue him and run away from the Starlight Citadel. In the Forest of Sorrows she traded her ability to feel grief with Mage Krokwel for Fantomex's health. Unfortunately, Horoam'ce sent an old enemy of Fantomex and Psylocke's father, the deadly Skinless Man, to end them. Psylocke was able to poison him, but could not prevent him from terribly disfiguring Fantomex. They then joined X-Force and Captain Britain in a final strike against Horoam'ce, during which Psylocke telepathically sensed the goat-demon was a corrupted future version of Jamie who was feasting on the souls of uncountable victims to self-replicate. She took the hard decision of killing her own brother to end the massacre. After that, X-Force returned home once more in a uneasy way, when they had the opportunity to have Nightcrawler eliminate his Earth's Iceman.; Not being able to feel sorrow, Psylocke left X-Force. Her departure was followed by Fantomex's. For their next mission, X-Force had Deadpool investigate White Sky, a weapons manufacturing company specializing in creating super soldiers. Coming to his rescue, X-Force was attacked by a group of soldiers possessing powers similar to Omega Red, the Omega Clan all of whom have been implanted with false memories of X-Force murdering their families. Deadpool built a White Sky assassin himself to allow X-Force to escape and soon it was revealed that X-Force was in fact being targetted by the revengeful Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, with Fantomex poisoned and thus depowered by Mystique, and Psylocke psychically tortured by the Shadow King. A vulnerable Fantomex managed to find Psylocke, and sacrificed himself to allow her to escape, being ultimately killed by the Skinless Man. Meanwhile, Sabretooth and the Blob kidnapped Genesis in Genosha to punish X-Force. The leader of the Brotherhood was shown to be Wolverine's son Daken.; With Fantomex dead, E.V.A. became independent and assumed a human form. She accompanied Psylocke back to their headquarters to meet the rest of X-Force. There, Ultimaton reverted to its primary function without Fantomex's influence, which was killing mutants. He murdered Gateway and detonated, destroying Cavern-X. Psylocke telepathically forced Gateway to teleport them away from the explosion. They were sent into a future where Genesis had ascended as Apocalypse, prompting X-Force to defeat him and, after being celebrated as war heroes, develop into a totalitarian organization that acted based on predictive justice. In the future, they were greeted by Deathlok, who attempted to execute them for being unrepentant of the potential course of action. The future X-Force, led by Psylocke's future version, Magistrate Braddock, wished to return X-Force to their present. Psylocke, however, had another plan of action: self-termination, a final execution that would prevent that authoritarian regime from ever happening. She failed, being saved by both X-Forces. After being nursed back to health, past X-Force was sent back in time by future X-Force, not before future Wolverine alerting his past version that Daken should not be given a chance.; While X-Force was missing, the Brotherhood revealed the truth about Genesis' creation in an attempt to corrupt him and force him to become Apocalypse by having him wear a Celestial armor. After returning to Cavern-X, X-Force was briefed by Deathlok about Genesis' situation. In Genosha, Mystique was restrained by X-Force, who wished to rescue Genesis furtively. Deadpool made it to his location by himself, clashing with the Brotherhood in the process. The rest of X-Force followed him, but were ultimately betrayed by Nightcrawler, who chose to ally himself with Mystique, who had been released by him after offering him the Blob. X-Force was captured and tortured by the Brotherhood members. Genesis decided to wear the Celestial armor to put an end in the violent conflict. His intervention led to the Brotherhood's defeat: Deadpool executed the Skinless Man; Psylocke was able to incapacitate the Shadow King; Nightcrawler had his revenge against the Blob, but E.V.A. punished him for it, which caused him to flee with Mystique; and Wolverine ended his own son's life, much to Sabretooth's pleasure. Mocking Wolverine, Sabretooth revealed he had accomplished his objective. As a response for his cruelty, Genesis almost finished Sabretooth, but was stopped by Wolverine, who had to cope with the loss of his son. X-Force left Genosha, with its members knowing that was their final operation.; ===Revenant War===; E.V.A. used the White Sky technology to revive Fantomex. The process went awry however, as Deadpool initiated the device with a setting of parameters that created one body for each of Fantomex's three brains: besides the original Fantomex, the noble Cluster and the vile Weapon XIII also emerged from the cloning machine. In an apparent happy ending, Psylocke left with Fantomex and Cluster to their Mother's place in the French Alps. Psylocke soon realized that the noble aspects that made her fall for Fantomex were Cluster's. The jealous Fantomex then set her up during a heist. This led their relationship to end with a lot of rancor, causing Psylocke to join the Jean Grey School. Unable to adjust herself to the school environment due to anger issues, she was dismissed from teaching by Wolverine.; Instead, Wolverine assigned Psylocke and Storm a field mission in Los Angeles, concerning a tip about a drug dealer selling TAO, a drug that turned people susceptible to a hive mind mentality. Wolverine's contact was his old friend Puck, who met the two X-Women in order to find them the dealer: the diva of downtown LA and Psylocke's old enemy Spiral, who was quickly attacked. During the battle, the source of the drug was found inside a bank vault to be a teen psychic mutant girl named Ginny. Tracking the fugitives Spiral and Ginny, the three heroes were attacked by a confused Bishop, who captured the girl. They teamed up with Spiral to look for them, ultimately finding out Bishop had been corrupted both by the Demon Bear and the Ghost Owl, the Revenant Queen, with the latter possessing Ginny and vanishing in the end.; Psylocke and Storm telepathically exorcized Bishop from the Demon Bear, with Psylocke being able to channel the beast as a weapon. Cluster interrupted the ordeal to ask Psylocke for help in rescuing Fantomex from Weapon XIII. They embarked on a mission to find Weapon XIII, which culminated in the three Fantomexes agreeing to merge again into only one being. In the meantime, the Revenant Queen had been able to gather an army of brainwashed followers in Los Angeles, she wished to bring on a ritual called the Great Corruption, which would cause spectral demons known as Revenants to access the mundane plane. Bishop had returned from the future in an attempt to stop her from achieving it in the present. However, the Revenant Queen's army was able to catch Psylocke, Storm, and Puck unprepared and Revenant versions of themselves recaptured them. Bishop broke them free and they were joined by Spiral, who informed them the Revenant Queen was the powerful psychic Cassandra Nova.; The crisis led to the reformation of an uncanny roster of X-Force, who made imperative to stop Cassandra Nova from triggering a Revenant invasion. Los Angeles had been psychically imprisoned, so no one but X-Force could join the fight. The only way to stop the ritual was through the sacrifice of a telepath. Since Cassandra Nova was able to control the Demon Bear, Psylocke was captured while X-Force battled a horde of Revenants. Cassandra Nova offered Psylocke her original body back in the form of a Revenant in exchange for an alliance. Puck attempted to save Psylocke, but they fell into the Revenant Underworld. From there, Psylocke was able to restore her connection to the Demon Bear, which gave X-Force advantage and led Ginny to be free from Cassandra Nova, who in turn had to possess the Revenant Psylocke's body. This allowed Psylocke to murder her own mirror image and, with the sacrifice of a telepath, the Great Corruption ritual was undone and the world was freed from the Revenants.; Bishop's return did not go unnoticed. Hope, who was now part of the outlaw team of X-Force, pinpointed his location and target him for assassination in revenge for the hurt he had caused her. A vengeful Stryfe then took the opportunity to kidnap them. Looking for their respective teammates, the two groups of X-Force clashed with each other. After Cable was teleported away by Spiral to Stryfe's hideout, the two teams called a truce to locate and rescue their missing teammates. They found Hope and Bishop, who had put their sorrowful past behind and joined forces to evade Stryfe and save Cable. Stryfe was mortally wounded by Cable and vanished, but not before augmenting Hope's powers to dangerous levels. Bishop saved her by rechannelling the excessive energies. In the aftermath, Psylocke and Storm disbanded their X-Force, but Psylocke saw in Cable's team an opportunity to carry on her need for a cause.

+Reality: Earth-295
+Base of operations: Mobile; Formerly:; Atlantis; The former estate of Charles Xavier; Wundagore Mountain; various hidden locations
+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+History:
+===Origins===; Magneto vowed to make Xavier's dream of peaceful coexistence between humans and mutants his own crusade. He began recruiting and training mutants while the evil Apocalypse plotted the conquest of the planet through bringing about wars and conflict in which the strong would defeat and destroy the weak. In a world without the Avengers or Fantastic Four there were few to oppose him.; ===Dawn of the Age of Apocalypse===; In the early days, Magneto built a school and trained his students on Wundagore mountain. His core group of students were dubbed the X-Men, named after the late Charles Xavier. The team's original roster consisted of Iceman, Storm, Colossus, Jean Grey, and Magneto's own children Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. The group was soon joined by the feral mutant Weapon X (Logan), as well as Rogue.; The X-Men were sent on their first mission to stop the Horsemen of Apocalypse from seizing control of Cape Citadel. In the course of the battle, Sabretooth defected over to the X-Men due to his unwillingness to participate in mass genocide. Although the X-Men succeeded in stopping Apocalypse, they suffered a loss as well. Apocalypse sent his son Nemesis to destroy Magneto's school while they were away, killing many including the Scarlet Witch. After the destruction of his school, the X-Men relocated to the United States to be closer to the fight against Apocalypse.; Apocalypse continued to gain a foothold on the world, taking over much of North America and leaving the world in ruins. Pockets of human resistance existed, the strongest concentration being in Europe. During this time, Magneto formed ties with other mutants who were against Apocalypse's rule. He made allies of Forge and rescued Morph from the clutches of Sugar Man. Magneto also recruited Gambit and Nightcrawler onto the team. Blink was rescued from the pens by Sabretooth and recruited. Also during this time Magneto got his revenge against Nemesis by blowing away his flesh, forcing him to wear a special containment unit. Nemesis changed his name to Holocaust and became an even deadlier foe to the X-Men.; The group rescued Robert Kelly from Apocalypse's agents Absorbing Man and Diablo in Mexico. They convinced the young and frightened Blink to help the X-Men travel to the Blue Area of the Moon to free Sunfire from Prelate Summers and the Inhumans. Also during this time Sabretooth was captured by Apocalypse's forces, but escaped and brought the feral Wild Child back with him as a companion.; Dissent came to the X-Men's ranks after Jean Grey was captured and put in the pens, leading to her love Weapon X to disobey orders and go after her. Weapon X lost a hand fighting Prelate Summers. He and Jean Grey quit the team. Holocaust sent his agent Wolverine (no relation to Logan) to kill Magneto's surviving son, Quicksilver. Wolverine saw the love triangle forming between Magneto, Rogue and Gambit and decided to take the opportunity to eliminate Rogue or Gambit instead. When Rogue chose to save the life of Magneto over Gambit it caused a rift in their friendship. At the battle's end, Gambit killed Wolverine but left the X-Men, heartbroken. Gambit formed his own group of mutant thieves called the X-Ternals. They stole from mutants in order to help humans in need.; The X-Men inducted Shadowcat onto the team, and she soon forged a relationship with Colossus. While fighting an army of Sentinels on Wakanda, Colossus lost all interest in the continued struggle the X-Men faced. Magneto sent him off active combat duty and charged him with training the next generation of mutants, Generation Next.; While on a mission in Dallas, Texas, Blink disobeyed Magneto and was kicked off the team. However, after she went on an adventure in the Negative Zone she was accepted back. Banshee, Exodus, and Dazzler also joined the team.; ===The Age of Apocalypse===; Although the X-Men grew into a large unit of mutants, Apocalypse still controlled all of North America. International relations became tense. A cold war was in play between Apocalypse and the Eurasian High Council with doomsday weapons pointing at each camp that threatened to wipe out the entire planet. While Apocalypse and the Council made pacts and treaties, the ancient mutant had no intention of following them and continued his genetic culls of the remaining human population in North America. The X-Men were stationed in the ruins of Xavier's old estate and tried their best to stop Apocalypse's genocide across the globe. Magneto, and Rogue sired a child, Charles. Also, unknown to all, the M'kraan Crystal, the nexus of all realities, had been fractured due to Legion's tampering with the timeline and threatened to erase everything from existence.; The X-Men travelled to Seattle to stop a genetic culling. There they crushed the Infinities and their commander Prelate Unus. They also encountered the time displaced and nearly insane Bishop. Hearing Bishop's rants about how reality had been distorted and that it was somehow Magneto's fault, the X-Men took him back to their base where after having Rogue absorb Bishop's memories they learned about Earth-616 and the changes in history wrought by Legion. Although this other reality was one where he was a villain, Magneto still believed that restoring the reality where there was still hope for the future was the best course of action, despite the doubts of his fellow X-Men.; Magneto sent his X-Men on various missions to try and verify Bishop's claims while at the same time continued to foil Apocalypse's ongoing plans in the event that Bishop was wrong. He sent Colossus, Shadowcat and their students-Generation Next-to rescue Colossus' sister Illyana from the slave pens run by Sugar Man to utilize her teleportation powers. He convinced Gambit and his X-Ternals to travel to the far off Shi'ar galaxy to capture a fragment of the M'krann Crystal, unaware that one of their own, Strong Guy was really a double agent for Apocalypse. He sent Nightcrawler and Mystique to Avalon to collect Destiny, an elderly mutant who could see the future.; To quash Apocalypse's operations, Magneto sent Quicksilver, Storm, Banshee, Iceman, Dazzler, and Exodus to assist the Sentinels involved in a human evacuation of the east coast. Rogue, Morph, Sunfire, Sabretooth, Wild Child, and Blink went to the west coast to stop Holocaust's wanton culling and destroy his Infinites plant.; Quicksilver's team hit a snag in their plan when the Brotherhood of Chaos tampered with the computer virus the X-Men had created to prevent the Sentinels from attacking them. Matters were complicated further when a little boy was captured by Abyss, one of the Horsemen of Apocalypse. In the end the X-Men succeeded in getting the humans safely evacuated from North America and rescued the little boy from Abyss when Quicksilver shoved Abyss through his own portal.; At the same time back at headquarters, Magneto, fearing for his son's safety, sent Charles away into the tunnels below the mansion with his Nanny robot. Learning the secret location of Magneto's hideout, Apocalypse joined a troupe of Infinites led by Vanisher to attack Magneto. Apocalypse succeeded in capturing Magneto and Bishop. He took Magneto back to his citadel and tortured him. He sent Bishop to the Tabernacle of the Madri in Quebec to have his mind probed by the Shadow King, giving Apocalypse all he needed to know about Magneto's mission to restore the original timeline. When Quicksilver's team returned home, he sent Exodus and Dazzler to find Charles. He sent Iceman to alert Rogue's team while he, Banshee and Storm rescued Bishop. Quicksilver succeeded in rescuing Bishop from the Abyss at the cost of Banshee's life.; While on the west coast, Sabretooth broke off from Rogue's group and attempted to go after Holocaust. He was defeated but not before he reveal the location of the Infinite processing plant to Rogue. Blink found Sabretooth crucified, and rescued him. Rogue's team stopped Holocaust's operation but he escaped, telling them Magneto had been captured.; ===Twilight of the Age of the Apocalypse===; Magneto's hard fought plan to restore the proper order of reality came to fruition but not without casualties along the way. Colossus and Shadowcat succeeded in rescuing Illyana from the clutches of Sugar Man, but at the cost of his students' lives when Colossus was forced to abandon them to die. Likewise, Nightcrawler and Mystique succeeded in getting Destiny however much of Avalon was laid waste. Gambit and his X-Ternals returned to Earth with the shard of the M'kraan Crystal only to lose it when Guido betrayed them to Apocalypse. Guido also recovered Charles Lehnsherr.; With all the X-Men reunited, Rogue rallied them on a final assault on Apocalypse's citadel to rescue Magneto and Charles and to use the M'kraan Crystal to restore reality before Apocalypse could use it to further his own ends. At this point the final salvo in the cold war between Apocalypse and the Eurasian High Council had been played out and the doomsday weapons on both sides had been launched. Arriving at the citadel Destiny confirmed all of Bishop's claims. Bishop, Destiny and Illyana went into the M'kraan Crystal where they sent Bishop back in time to change history back to normal. Bishop succeeded in stopping Legion, restoring the original timeline. Both men vanished from the timeline. However instead of erasing the Age of Apocalypse, it diverged into a new reality designated Earth-295.; In the final battle, many mutants died including Angel, Prelate Cyclops and his brother Prelate Havok, and Guido Carosella. Colossus lost his mind and trampled Shadowcat to death. Apocalypse died by Magneto's own hands. X-Man, Sugar Man, Dark Beast, and Holocaust all escaped to Earth-616. Blink and Sabretooth would become unmoored from time by the Timebreakers to fix damaged realities with the reality hopping team, the Exiles with Weapon X respectively. Wildchild was captured by mutant haters. He was considered missing before he was eventually saved by Sabretooth and Blink.; As destruction rained down all over the world threatening to destroy everything, all were saved at the last moment when all the nuclear warheads poised to destroy the entire world were suddenly deconstructed. At first everyone would believe that it was Magneto who had saved the day. However, in reality it was Jean Grey having advanced to an Alpha Mutant tapping into the Phoenix Force and saving everyone. Realizing what had happened, Sinister captured her and kept her hidden while the rest of the world believed she had died.; ===The Manhunt for Sinister===; Over the next few years, Magneto and the X-Men freed the remaining humans in captivity and helped reconstruct society and reinstall the old political systems and infrastructure that was in place prior to Apocalypse's rule. Magneto was appointed Secretary of Mutant Affairs and was charged with bringing all of Apocalypse's former minions to justice. The most wanted of them all was Sinister. Sinister made a deal with Magneto. Magneto would keep taking credit for saving the world in hopes that the lie would help him reconstruct civilization. In return Sinister would not expose Magneto as he kept the X-Men away from him.; Exodus, Iceman, and Morph were sent on a secret mission, the details of which remain unrevealed. Presently they are missing in action and presumed deceased. New additions to the team included Wolfsbane, Silver Samurai, Beak Psylocke, and Xorn. They found Kirika in one of Sinister's lab, dubbed "X-23". At first she appeared to be a clone of Weapon X. After training her, Magneto bonded her bones and claws with Adamantium.; With the X-Men fully installed as heroes, Magneto began his manhunt for all of Apocalypse's minions. While all the X-Men followed orders, some of them, such as the Silver Samurai, expressed the ethical problems with the plan. In order to install faith in the new government's regime, the X-Men televised the capture of the Hellions. Magneto sent Kirika to collect Weapon X who had been in the wilds of Canada since the defeat of Apocalypse and the loss of his love, Jean.Kirika managed to convince Weapon X to return with her after they both took down Northstar and Aurora, two of Apocalypse's former elite.; The X-Men attempted to convince the Morlocks to come to the surface, leading to a fight that saw Magneto and Xorn injured. Soon, the Exiles, including Blink, Sabretooth, and Holocaust, were transported to Earth-295 to stop the X-Men from capturing Sinister. The Exiles travelled to the lab of the Dark Beast to find data he had collected on the crystal. They briefly clashed with Magneto, Gambit, Quicksilver and Sunfire. The X-Men were soundly defeated and Magneto barely avoided being killed by Holocaust.; The White House was attacked by the Guthrie siblings Amazon, Cannonball, and Icarus. While the X-Men battled them, Xorn revealed herself to be Paige Guthrie, formerly of Generation Next. Paige wanted revenge against the X-Men for leaving her to die, and captured Rogue and Charles. Magneto returned the tables of battle. They were forced to kill the Guthrie family, but not before Paige let slip Magneto's deal with Sinister.; Magneto was forced to explain to the X-Men how he was blackmailed by Sinister. Although Weapon X and Wolfsbane both wish to kill Magneto, they restrained realizing they still needed their leader. The X-Men tracked Sinister to his lab on Liberty Island where they came face to face with Sinister and his Sinister Six, which included Jean Grey among their number. The X-Men learned Sinister's goal was to find Mutant Alpha, which he found in Jean Grey. In the climax of the battle, Gambit and Quicksilver were killed, however Jean was freed from Sinister's control. All of the Sinister Six were defeated by the X-Men and Sinister was killed. In the aftermath, Magneto came and turned himself over to the authorities and was imprisoned. Despite this setback, the X-Men continued on led by Jean Grey and Weapon X to protect their world from those who would threaten it.; ===The New Apocalypse===; While the world seemed to know peace for some time, this all changed the day a Celestial Spaceship arrived on Earth. A team of X-Men were sent to investigate and the result was that Weapon X took the mantle of the new Apocalypse in order to spare the world Celestial Judgement. The world was once again plunged into war with the X-Men continuing their battle against their former ally, the new Apocalypse. One day, X-Force from Earth-616 arrived on their world in an effort to salvage a Celestial Life Seed to prevent one of their members from turning into the Apocalypse of their world. While the X-Men initially believed them to be minions of Weapon X due to them working with Dark Beast, they later helped them gain a Life Seed, at the cost of several of their members. With the X-Men's ranks dwindled Weapon X launched an attack on the last human stronghold.; The human resistance had been creating clones of Magneto's daughter, the Scarlet Witch, after hearing from X-Force that the Scarlet Witch of their world was able to use her powers to de-power almost every mutant on Earth. After finding out about this, Magneto flew into a rage and destroyed all the clones with the exception of one. Since the clones were mindless, a telepath was required to enter the clones' mind and use her powers. Jean Grey volunteered while Magneto and Rogue gave their lives to distract Weapon X. The plan went awry however and Jean was only able to de-power the mutants in a small radius surrounding the clone, resulting in only Jean and Sabretooth being de-powered. Jean and Sabretooth fled the stronghold together with the Human Resistance. While Jean was taken in to be trained, Sabretooth was thrown in prison for his time aiding Apocalypse before becoming an X-Man.

+Base of operations: Savage Land; Formerly:; Halo City; Zhao's Ranch, Sangre de Cristo Mountains, New Mexico; Hoover Dam, Nevada/Arizona border; Nuevo Sol Arcology, Nevada
+History:
+===Formation===; The founding of the fourth incarnation of the X-Men took place at the Nuevo Sol Arcology in 2099. Castaways and nomads of all types were brought together by the inspiring anticorporate guru Xi'an Chi Xan to a huge gathering within the Arcology; the mutant Shakti Haddad, known as Cerebra, had personally invited a collection of promising mutants to join their resistance. Xi’an was an ex-outlaw formerly known as the Desert Ghost who had a vision in Ho Chi Minh City of a new future for mutantkind. He put his criminal past behind him to build a group of mutants patterned after the initiative of the 20th Century’s Professor Charles Xavier. The group was formed by Junkpile, a former associate of Xi'an from his days as a criminal, limb-stretching Serpentina, metallic mimic Metalhead, crystal caster Krystalin, and the speedster Meanstreak. With the gathering and the induction of the mutant Timothy Fitzgerald, who was cursed with devastating energy rechannelling abilities, the X-Men rounded up all his members.; Xi'an directed his power against the Synge Corporation, which controlled all of Las Vegas and preyed on the suffering of the weak for profit and amusement in the Synge Hotel and Casino. The flying mutant terrorist Bloodhawk was rescued from the Synge Corporation with the help of Krystalin and Meanstreak. Meanwhile, Xi'an personally threatened Noah Synge for his sanguinary operations. Unexpectedly, Synge was assassinated, and Xi'an was framed for his murder. As Junkpile turned on the X-Men and alerted the security force of the Synge Corporation, an assassination attempt was made on Xi'an, but it failed thanks to Fitzgerald, leaving Xi'an in a cocoon state as a result of his evolving mutant powers.; Out of gratitude, Bloodhawk helped the X-Men escape from the Syndicate as their Arcology was stormed for Synge's death. Retreating to the Hoover Dam, the X-Men worked together to clear Xi’an’s name by investigating the victim's dead body, something that led them to battle the Rat Pack. Meanwhile, Junkpile targetted Xi'ar. The X-Men eventually learned that the new head of the Synge Corporation, Lytton Synge, killed his own father and blamed it on Xi’an. The revelation ignited a feud between Lytton Synge and the other heir of the Synge empire, his sister Desdemona Synge. Tragically, during the confrontation, Serpentina was killed by Junkpile. Xi’an woke up shortly afterwards with the ability to heal with his right hand, as well as with his former ability to destroy with his other hand. He turned on Junkpile and disabled him with his destroying hand, yet left him alive. Desdemona imprisoned her brother and let the X-Men depart. After Serpentina’s funeral, Timothy Fitzgerald made his final decision to stay with the team, although Bloodhawk refused to stay with them. The X-Men were complete, as outcast travellers in a world that hated and feared them.; ===Outcasts===; Meanstreak later left the team briefly after Bloodhawk and Timothy were rescued from the Theatre of Pain, and headed to New York out of concern for his friend, Jordan Boone. The rest of the team eventually caught up with him, despite Xi’an’s immediate disagreement with Meanstreak for leaving, and together they tracked Boone’s disappearance to the man-beast, Ravage. With Ravage's help they traveled to Alchemax's floating city, Valhalla, and discovered that Boone had been transformed into Loki, the Asgardian god of mischief. When they arrived they were forced to fight another one of the genetically engineered super heroes, Heimdall, who they defeated with the help of Loki. They later assisted in the evacuation of the human populace of Valhalla before 2099’s Spider-Man, Punisher, and Doctor Doom disabled the city.; The X-Men began to pick up underground broadcasts from a woman known as Mama Hurricane, whom Xi’an connected to a woman named Hurricane who had helped mutants escape the Great Purge of decades earlier, a time when humanity turned against mutants and executed them in droves. Xi’an also sent Krystalin away to meet with a man named Ten Eagles, a former teammate of Xi’an in his criminal days, and the rest of the team tracked down Mama Hurricane. They found that she was the same Hurricane from the Great Purge, but now she led a group of degens, genetically engineered humans, known as the Freakshow. But after the X-Men Metalhead was infected by the Freakshow’s Contagion, causing him to become fixed in his metal state despite Xi’an efforts, and he met a pregnant woman named Rosa whom he fell for, he quit the team to join Mama Hurricane’s group when the X-Men left.; When the X-Men replied to a message from Krystalin, they tracked it to the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in New Mexico and found Krystalin and Ten Eagles hypnotized by the mutant Zhao, the leader of the third incarnation of the X-Men, since believed dead. They discovered that Zhao had used a synthesized, psycho-active amplifier to boost his failing powers, which drove him mad, and he killed his original X-Men, believing them to have turned against his purpose. He then genetically accelerated the growth of a set of mutants and patterned them after Xavier’s original students, leaving them physically unstable. But after a mental fight with Xi’an, in which Xi’an outlaw personality took over his body, the X-Men were able to incapacitate Zhao and freeze the remaining members of his X-Men, with the help of Frostbite to save them from genetic degradation.; With his old, selfish personality dominant, Xi’an left the X-Men and traveled to find a being known as the Driver and the mutant paradise Avalon that Mama Hurricane told him about. Timothy, having been mentally changed since being kidnapped himself by the Theatre of Pain, ran to join him in his pursuit. They both left to find Broken Haiku, another of Xi’an’s old partners. On the way they ran into La Lunatica, a former servant of the Theatre of Pain, who was on the run from the Theatre and its leader, Brimstone Love. After a confrontation, Lunatica joined up with Timothy and eventually brought him to Junkpile, whose help she had enlisted against Brimstone. Together they hunted down the Driver using Haiku's information and found that the Driver had uploaded dozens of mutants' personalities into a database to try and save them for when the world was ready for them. Brimstone Love attacked and in the resulting fight the Driver's database was destroyed. Then, Xi'an accepted Brimstone's offer to join the Theatre, which freed La Lunatica from his revenge for the moment. She eventually joined the X-Men to be with Timothy.; Skullfire returned to the X-Men's new headquarters in Zhao's old base in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and told them of Xi'an's decision. He then took up the mantle of the leader of the X-Men. Meanwhile, Meanstreak left the group again to go after his friend Boone, who then called himself Halloween Jack, and together they overthrew the Synge Corporation and took over Las Vegas. Jack later started up a virtual unreality generator in Vegas, which Doom had to step in and contain, and Meanstreak and Krystalin, who followed him, again returned to the X-Men. In meantime, Cerebra had discovered how to fix the frozen members of Zhao’s X-Men, but Xi’an appeared and kidnapped them and the comatose Zhao, and returned to the Theatre of Pain.; Skullfire, Lunatica, and Cerebra set out to find Xi’an and bring down the Theatre of Pain. With information gained from Haiku, they disguised themselves as outcasts and entered the Floodgate, the gathering point for the Theatre of Pain’s victims. There they meet Quiver and Sham, fellow mutants, who helped them distract the Theatre long enough for Skullfire and Lunatica to fight with her former sisters, the Norns, and Cerebra to sneak in until she was captured by Xi’an, calling himself Controller X. Skullfire and Lunatica were also captured, and Skullfire was put in a refuse dump along with Junkpile, who was rebuilt and turned into a SHIELD officer by the then-President Doom. They both broke out and joined up with the rest, along with Bloodhawk, Krystalin, and Meanstreak, who came after them. Together, they fought Zhao’s unthawed X-Men and ended a broadcast of combined psionic suffering that Xi’an was orchestrating. Before Brimstone could stop them, Xi’an used Zhao’s body, which was acting as a psychic battery, and turned it on Brimstone in order to gain control of the Theatre. However, Brimstone escaped, and in a fight with the X-Men, Lunatica used her psychic-vampire powers to snap Xi’an out of his megalomaniacal rampage. After Doom appeared and shut down the Theatre, the X-Men, along with Quiver, Sham, and a freshly repentant Xi’an, traveled to the newly created Halo City.; ===Halo City===; Halo City was built by Doom to act as a refuge for the Theatre's victims, with his Black Cabinet member, Morphine Somers, acting as governor. The X-Men became its guard, called the Protectorate. Xi’an began his repentance by healing anyone in need at the polyclinic, guarded by the Sisters of the Howling Commandments. Graverobber, a mutant with the ability to raise the dead, and his group, the Undead, later attacked the city. They demanded Zail Haddad, Shakti’s father, who endangered the Graverobber and countless others in medical experiments. The Undead eventually killed Skullfire, using a revived Serpentina as a distraction, and brought him back to threaten the city by destroying its power generator, the Spark. In an attempt to save the city and some captured X-Men, Morphine gave Zail up, but wired him with an explosive that put him in a coma and killed the Graverobber, releasing his hold on the Undead. Serpentina was reburied, and it was revealed that Skullfire was slowly transforming into a being of pure energy, and couldn’t really die.; Cerebra soon quit the group, being reassigned as the leader of the young mutant group, X-Nation, by Doom. After being contacted by Book, a mutant savant whose physical bulk made him incapable of movement, a group of the remaining X-Men broke into the Quetzacoatl Corporation and stole him from Javier Belize, the head of the corporation. Metalhead returned again, able once again to transform into any metal he chose, and brought along Rosa, who was due to give birth to a powerful mutant. Vulcann, a being that believed the boy to be a future messiah for mutantkind, soon attacked the X-Men and stole the boy, genetically accelerating his growth until he was an adult, named him Darkson, and turned him against the X-Men.; Then the planetoid arrived, orbiting Earth, and caused the polar ice caps to melt, creating massive flooding across the planet. Halo City was soon flooded itself, and the X-Men rushed to save the denizens from the waters. The Atlanteans took advantage of the surface dwellers’ vulnerability and attacked, sending troops to Halo City. The X-Men became trapped on a single ship, sinking into the water, while Vulcann and his Darkson threatened them, and a giant Atlantean ship rose from the water to attack them, but Vulcann’s Darkson destroyed the ship and saved an armada of mutant refugees in the process. While he was distracted, Bloodhawk dropped Metalhead on Vulcann, and armed with an anchor from the Atlantean ship, Metalhead dragged his godson’s captor under the waters where he drowned. Then, before Darkson could turn on the X-Men, Skullfire appeared from another apparent physical death as an energy being and told Darkson the truth about Vulcann and his mother, then shocked him into unconscious with the power of the storm.; The X-Men were left safe aboard a ship, riding the waves of the floods. Except for Meanstreak, who previously left when he found himself sucked away by mysterious beings of light, the X-Men remained intact. Along with Nostromo, a member of the X-Nation team, and the child-like Darkson, they began their journey to the Savage Land, the last populated area on the planet. In the Savage Land they face the threat of the Phalanx and Garrok the Petrified Man and the survivors begin to develop a new society.

They managed to save the President from a mutant terrorist, changing the perception of the humans for the mutants, and bringing about (among other events) a era of cooperation between the two subspecies.; Professor X's dream of mutants and humans living in harmony has come true. A new police force is officiated by Jean Grey and Scott Summers, government-appointed officers, while Ororo Munroe is the school Headmaster, and the leader of one of the many X-Men squad, now composed of a couple or three mutants, a human, and a A.I. who ensure the legality of those police forces' actions.; Storm's squad is composed of the mutants Nate Grey, Psychedelia, the human David Chan and the A.I. Sarah (Model #00-1468).; James Howlett, on the other side, has become a super-terrorist due to a massive brain injury during the war. He see the change of the X-Men to a police force as a sellout of Xavier's dream. Along with his supporters, he fights the constant bigotry of humans, and is opposed to the X-Men.; Charles Xavier's fate is unknown.

+The X-Men of Earth-12 have a history that is much like their Earth-616 counterparts with a number of important differences. In this reality, mutants in general, and super-heroes in particular, are well regarded by humanity and are treated like celebrities.; The X-Men have had a number of different rosters over the years. Much like on Earth-616, the original roster of the team consisted of Cyclops, Iceman, Beast, Angel, Marvel Girl, and Professor X. Another roster consisted of Storm, Mimic, Cyclops, Shadowcat, Gambit, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Wolverine and an unidentified female mutant. At one point Bishop was a member of the team. The most recent known roster included Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Storm, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Gambit and Colossus.; During a clash with the X-Men, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was defeated. The core members retreated, leaving the knocked out Mimic behind to be captured. In prison, he was offered the chance of being released by Charles Xavier if he agreed to join his School for Gifted Youngsters. Deciding it was better than prison, Calvin accepted the Professor's invitation and became an active member of the X-Men. Training with the group, he helped them master their abilities, and he soon become leader of the team over the more timid Cyclops. Calvin became a long standing member of the X-Men, seeing them through many tragedies and triumphs before he was plucked out of his reality by the Timebreakers to be one of the founding members of the reality jumping Exiles.; Ultimately Rankin died at the hands of Earth-58163's Proteus. His body was returned to his home reality by his teammate and lover Blink. During the funeral service, Blink was offered a membership in this world's X-Men. With her job with the Exiles unfinished she politely declined.

Another difference was that Jean Grey was never replaced by the Phoenix, as their mission against Larry Trask's Sentinels ended with Polaris safely landing their space shuttle with her magnetic powers.; However, this resulted in the Phoenix taking residence within Earth's sun. Rather than let the Shi'ar detonate the sun in order to destroy it, Cyclops volunteered for a suicide mission wherein he would allow the Phoenix Force to merge with his physical body, which would then be killed. Luckily for him, he was replaced by this reality's Nightcrawler, who had become an enemy of the X-Men due to the influence of Eric the Red, and sought to make amends after learning of the X-Men's self-sacrifice.

+On Earth-696 Magneto decided to wage war on the X-Men and Avengers and killed Charles Xavier. In a moment of panic, Jean Grey's latent abilities, which were suppressed by Xavier, reemerged and she shut down Magneto's mind, however, this led to the creation of Onslaught. Onslaught possessed Jean and posed as the Phoenix Force, which never came close to Earth, and rallied the X-Men through a progressive mental manipulation into enforcing a brutal stance on the fight for mutantkind, with the secret objective of acquiring more power ascending into a Cosmic Being by draining the minds of humanity.; However, the Phoenix of another reality noticed Onslaught's threat and summoned the original X-Men of Earth-616 to stop it. They brought the local X-Men back to their senses and fought Onslaught, who immediately started draining humanity's minds, however Marvel Girl united every mind across the world, intending to stop Onslaught even if it meant the end of the world. However, Jean-696 regained her senses and contacted the Phoenix to bring back the young X-Men to their reality, sacrificing herself, the X-Men and the world to stop Onslaught.

+History:
+===Beginnings===; Charles Xavier befriended the mutant known as Erik Lensherr, who was to become the mutant terrorist known as Magneto. Erik and Charles bonded over their dreams for the new mutant race. Together, they founded the Brotherhood of Mutants in San Francisco, a place where persecuted mutants could find refuge. A year later, they discovered the Savage Land, a forgotten jungle in the Indian Ocean. In this lost tropical world, Xavier and Magneto built a home for the growing mutant population.; For a time, the two men found the peace they sought, but the partnership began to dissolve as Magneto became increasingly hateful toward mankind, believing Homo superior represented the next step in human evolution, and that Homo sapiens should live under the rule of mutants. While Xavier thought of their Savage Land reprieve as a place to teach mutants, Magneto was merely building a mutant army. The friendship between the two men strained to the breaking point. Xavier and a few of his sympathizers attacked Magneto and made their way to the beach in order to escape the island. Magneto ended the struggle by paralyzing Xavier with a metal spear through the back.; Xavier managed to escape and returned to the United States, where he established his Institute for Gifted Children in Westchester, New York, using his ancestral mansion as a secret base to train his X-Men to use their powers for the benefit of both man and mutantkind. The initially shy and aloof Scott Summers, whose eyes could emit concussive blasts, was the boy scout-like field leader of the team. Telepathic/telekinetic Jean Grey was outgoing and foxy, but also a very responsible young woman and became the unofficial second-in-command behind Cyclops. Xavier soon expanded the team to include Beast, Storm, and Colossus.; The government-sponsored Sentinels began tracking and killing mutants. Young Bobby Drake ran away from his family in New York to protect them, fearing that the Sentinels would kill him and/or his family if it was discovered that he was a mutant. On their first mission, the X-Men found Bobby alone and scared on a bus in downtown New York City. Before the X-Men could offer Bobby a place alongside them at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, a group of Sentinels attacked.; Just as a decapitated Sentinel was toppling over onto a group of innocent bystanders, Bobby took action and froze the robot in mid-fall, saving the bystanders below. Bobby's heroic act, however, didn't stop the bystanders from hurling glass bottles and bricks at Bobby, the "mutie freak."; At the time, Bobby had a girlfriend. Wanting Bobby to join his team, Professor Xavier erased her from Bobby's memories because Bobby had told her too much about the X-Men and Xavier feared that Bobby would stay with his romance over joining the team. Believing the X-Men to be a righteous place, as well as being influenced by Xavier, Bobby accepted their offer and became an X-Man.; Magneto assigned his elite assassin Logan to infiltrate the X-Men and assassinate Professor Xavier. He was accepted into their ranks, and quickly seduced Jean Grey in order to further entrench himself within the team. However, Wolverine accidentally fell in love with Jean, and was devastated when she left him upon discovering his connection to the Brotherhood. Wolverine eventually betrayed Magneto, abandoning his initial mission and truly joined the X-Men after coming to understand and believe in Xavier's cause. The Professor entered Magneto's mind and turned him into an incredibly powerful electromagnet, which attracted all the Sentinel parts that littered Washington. Using his telekinesis, the Professor shunted Magneto into Earth's atmosphere and exploded the ball of metal. Xavier claimed to have killed Magneto, but had instead secretly brainwashed him, hoping to rehabilitate him.; Seeking answers to Wolverine's past (and to liberate imprisoned mutant test subjects), the team traveled to the site of the Weapon X Project. There they encountered Wraith and Sabretooth. The scientists of Weapon X tampered with Beast's genetic makeup, enhancing his senses and causing him to grow fangs and become covered in blue fur. Now even more insecure, Hank came to the conclusion that Professor X was using mind control on Ororo to make her love him so he'd stay with the X-Men. This led them to temporarily break up.; Somehow sensing his father's return to Britain, David Xavier suffered a fatal convulsion but survived by transferring his consciousness into nurse Isobel MacLinden. He fled to the mainland, swapping bodies as each host wore out and slaying anyone who got in his way. He taunted his father, claiming Charles didn't care about him, and sarcastically suggesting he might join the X-Men as Proteus. Colossus swiftly crushed David beneath a car, apparently killing him.; When Katherine "Kitty" Pryde's mutant powers began to manifest, her mother sought help from Professor Charles Xavier. Xavier was eager to have the bright girl, but her mother would only allow her to attend Xavier's school under one condition: that young Katherine would not take part in any X-Men missions, nor train in the "Danger Room." Xavier agreed and Kitty was quickly enrolled in the school.; The Hellfire Club had been keeping an eye on Jean Grey, who they believed to be the Phoenix reborn. They had secretly funded Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters to watch over the young mutant until the Phoenix awoke in her. But she briefly went mad and killed Sebastian Shaw.; Jean had began a relationship with Cyclops, leading to a growing rift between Scott and Logan. Their rivalry came to a head when Xavier sent the two of them on a mission to the Savage Land, hoping to end their enmity. However, the reverse occurred: Wolverine allowed Cyclops to fall to his death, believing he would then be able to continue his relationship with Jean. Miraculously, Cyclops survived, and returned, revealing Wolverine's hand in his disappearance. Cyclops blasted Wolverine to the ground, and then shocked everyone by offering to let him remain on the team (his only chance of redemption). This experience had a profound effect upon Logan. He realized how badly he had betrayed his friends, and ceased his antisocial, ruthless ways, and even developed a deep and abiding sense of responsibility. He also displayed a protective side for the younger X-Men, namely Rogue, and even eventually formed a bond of friendship - or at least mutual respect - with Cyclops.; For several months the amnesiac Magneto lived peacefully as a Manhattan social worker looking after disabled children; however, the Brotherhood eventually learned he was alive, and restored his memories. Magneto resumed the bombing campaign halted by his errant children, simultaneously gathering every mutant he could into a floating Arctic Citadel. His powers enhanced by a machine of Forge's design, Magneto intended to reverse Earth's magnetic field, leaving humanity to perish in the ensuing environmental chaos. The X-Men stopped him, and he was imprisoned in the Triskelion, home of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Ultimates.; Xavier was seemingly killed by the time traveling mutant Cable. However, Cable did not actually kill Xavier, but transported his unconscious body with him back to the future to keep under mental block until his questions could be answered. He healed Xavier's spine and replaced his legs and prepared him for the coming of Apocalypse. Xavier tried fighting Apocalypse and failed. He was barely saved when Jean merged with the Phoenix and defeated the powerful mutant. But she pointed out to Xavier that because of him, he set the mutant cause back by a hundred years. She expected him to start over. She reversed time to the point where the attack never happened. He went to Muir Island to recuperate.; ===Ultimatum===; As a result of his meddling with Magneto's attempts to punish humanity, Charles was killed: his neck snapped by Magneto. After the events of Ultimatum, only Jean Grey, Rogue, Storm, Colossus, Kitty, and Iceman were left alive.; ===Reformation===; After Peter Parker's death, Bobby and Johnny Storm moved out of the Parker home and joined Kitty in dwelling in the former Morlock Tunnels. There, they reformed the team known as the X-Men.; ===Utopia===; After a Nimrod mutant massacre, it was given to the Mutant Resistance a portion of land were to start from zero. They called it Utopia, and managed to make of it a oasis with the help of a sentient seed developed by Blackheat.; Even after a conflict among their own and the useless efforts of the US Army to stop them, the new mutant nation stood strong. When Jean Grey, the new mistress of Tian, failed to convince Kitty Pryde to join her mutant nation, the former X-Woman declared war on Utopia.; ===The Final Incursion===; Together with the Young Ultimates, the X-Men witnessed as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Triskelion fell at the hands of several heroes who hailed from a parallel universe in retaliation to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s own attacks against their Earth. This clash of realities was the consequence of a phenomenon known as an incursion which ultimately caused both universes to collapse and come to an end together with their inhabitants. It can be presumed the X-Men returned to existence when the entirety of the universe did as well.

+History:
+Like in many realities, the X-Men of Earth-1081 are the worlds premiere team of mutants fighting for peaceful co-existence between humans and mutants. What is known about this reality's version of the X-Men is little. Presumably, their origins and early history is mostly the same as their Earth-616 counterparts as similar adventures have been referenced.; Confirmed rosters of the X-Men include a team led by Cyclops, which included Morph, Psylocke, Lila Cheney, Polaris, Wolverine and Jubilee. A Later roster led by Professor Xavier included Wolverine, Gambit, Rogue, Morph and Iceman.; Most of the X-Men's history on this world has been told to the reality hopping Exiles by their teammate Morph who was taken from his reality to help fixed damaged realities. Below are a list of his accounts:; Prior to being plucked out of time by the Timebroker to serve in the Exiles, Morph and the X-Men were battling a villain who called himself Stonehenge, an antagonist that is apparently unique to this reality.; In this reality, Jean Grey was briefly replaced by the Phoenix Force. The Force (posing as Jean) would destroy an entire solar system and be put on trail by the Shi'ar. The Phoenix Force would commit suicide to prevent herself from threatening the universe further.; The team once had John Proudstar as a member, his fate and history with the team is unknown.; Following an encounter with the alien Brood, a group of X-Men traveled through space for two weeks in a Skrull saucer.; At least Morph was captured from Earth-1081 by Mojo and forced to provide entertainment to the Spineless Ones, suggesting a clash with this realities X-Men.; The X-Men opposed Moses Magnum's attempt to destroy Japan. Magnum's base was destroyed by Banshee.; During Morph's tenure as a member of the X-Men, the group clashed with the Juggernaut.

+Notes: Most of the past history of Earth-1815 is unknown, however evidence shows that it has had an age of heroes prior to the implementation of Operation: Zero Tolerance. However it is unknown if either Xavier or his rival Magneto ever formed a team of X-Men prior to their mutual incarcerations.
+History:
+Operation: Zero Tolerance led to the incarceration or elimination of super-humans. The reality hopping Exiles were sent to this world on their first mission. Instructed to find this reality's "greatest leader", they incorrectly believed it to be Charles Xavier. Upon freeing Xavier, they soon learned that the Xavier of this reality was not the peaceful man they all knew, but a genocidal maniac seething with hatred for humans. Knocking out the Exiles with a psi-bolt, Xavier soon freed a number of super-humans to form his team of X-Men.; The group included Charles' step-brother Cain Marko the Juggernaut, the flaming Human Torch, Domino, Spider Woman, and Chamber. They followed Xavier in attacking the New York Stock Exchange, the first step in their attempt to force their supremacy on the human race. They were opposed by members of the Exiles. Most of Xavier's recruits were knocked out in battle against the Exiles. Xavier unleashed his mental powers on the Exile's co-leader Mimic, forcing him to kill Xavier to save himself.; Following Xavier's death, the fate of the other X-Men remains unknown; however, it's entirely likely that they were placed back into incarceration.

+History:
+The X-Men were a group of mutants founded by Professor Charles Xavier. Mutants, or Homo Superiors, were born with superhuman abilities due to a sudden leap in evolution which generally manifested themselves at puberty. Mutants were often hated and feared because they were unlike humans. As a response Xavier created his School For Gifted Youngsters to provide a safe environment where mutants could learn to control their powers. The X-men fought for a future where humans and mutants could live together in peace.; One of the X-Men's enemies, Sebastian Shaw, paid a huge amount of money to the mercenary Deadpool for the elimination of the X-Men, and Deadpool accepted.; The X-Men apparently fought a good fight, as it took Deadpool three years to kill the group, with Wolverine as the only known survivor.

+Charles Xavier was able to stop Namora's attack on the surface by reaching out to her psychically. He was one of the few people on the planet she would eventually call friend, and an equal to her in power and intellect. It was his hope for the future of humanity that caused Namora to fight by his side. Though she warned him when the government began rounding up mutants after Magneto attacked an air force base, he still surrendered like a sheep to the slaughter, and he and the X-Men were locked away for the rest of their lives.

The first time the entire team was seen together was when the X-Men fought the Marauders. Power Pack tried to help, but only ended up getting in the way, causing the X-Men to lose the battle. They made up for their mistake later on by rescuing Cyclops from the Marauders.; The team was seen again when Wolverine invited Power Pack over to Xavier's Institute. This time, Power Pack helped the X-Men defeat a group of Sentinels.

Cerebra became the leader of the new X-Men which included in their ranks Bloodhawk, Cyclops, Deadpool, Krystalin, Mer-Max, Northstar, Phoenix, Skullfire, and veteran mutant adventurers Rogue and Tulkas. They were later joined by Cable, who was a survivor of the recent Avengers massacre at the hands of the Masters of Evil.; The team and most mutants originally lived in the Savage Land until they were kicked out after an attack from the Cabal, an illuminati group that was above the law thanks to their Black Cards and used its Sentinels to make the mutants escape their home. Northstar would eventually find the Celestial Garden, an oasis with a mutant at its core in Ontario that was created after the death of a Celestial named Jovion, which the X-Men believed to be a place they could call home.

+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The origin of the X-Men matches that of their Earth-616 counterpart. However, the most recent team was created when Captain America sent Daredevil's circus troupe to New York City to seek training from Scott Summers, who was formally the X-Man named Cyclops (see history.)
+Reality: Earth-9997
+Base of operations: Wakandan colony in the Savage Land; Formerly:; abandoned warehouse in New York; Daredevil's circus on the west coast
+History:
+===Origins===; The early history of the X-Men largely reflects that of their Earth-616 counterparts. The team was originally formed by Charles Xavier who dreamt of humans and mutants co-existing in peace. He formed the X-Men to defend the world from both human and mutant threats, hoping that mutant heroes could win acceptence for mutantkind among humanity.; At some point, an X-Man had a vision of a future where the mutant-hunting Sentinels had killed every hero on Earth because of the death of a political leader. The X-Men did everything they could to prevent this future from coming into being. The X-Man known as Angel would eventually come to believe that the X-Men exacerbated anti-mutant sentiment by acting out of fear of a future that might never occur.; ===Mutation of Humanity===; Following the release of the Terrigen Mist into Earth's atmosphere, the entire human population of Earth began to mutate. Unaware of the true cause of these mutations, some blamed the X-Men and other mutants. The mutation of humanity would have devastating effects for the X-Men, and the world at large. The mutation of a boy who would come to be known as the Skull caused the death of every telepath on Earth, including the X-Men's founder Charles Xavier.; With more and more mutants emerging each day, the governments of the world deployed the Sentinels to round up mutants in detention camps. Outraged at the mistreatment of mutants, former X-Men foe Magneto managed to lure the Sentinels to the Savage Land, where he destroyed them and used their husks to create Sentinel City, a refuge for mutants.; Many X-Men did their best to help innocent civilians during the time of chaos and anarchy that followed the mutation of humanity. With everyone on Earth now a mutant, and with their leader dead, the X-Men disbanded. Some, such as Cyclops, Wolverine and Jean Grey retired from the life of super-heroics, others such as Angel and Nightcrawler carried on as heroes and adventurers, either alone or on other teams, and some such as Colossus and Storm would assume leading positions in their countries, as superhumans who had wielded powers for most of their lives became valued for their experience.; In the intervening years before the beginning of the Skull's invasion of America, many former X-Men, such as Banshee, Kitty Pryde, Gambit and Rogue died. By this time, the remaining X-Men were scattered around the world, with few of them keeping in touch.; ===New X-Men===; When the Skull began an invasion of the United States, marching east from California to New York at the head of an army of mind-controlled superhumans, he was confronted by Captain America. Desperate to stop the Skull, Cap sent several circus performers who had formerly been a part of his new partner Daredevil's circus troupe ahead to New York, where they were to seek out Cyclops and receive training from him as the new X-Men.; Scott obliged, and helped prepare them for the arrival of the Skull and his army. Captain America's first assault, with an army assembled with the help of allies from around the world, proved a disaster, as the Skull simply used his powers to seize control of all those opposing him, with the exception of Captain America.; With help from the X-Men and Alicia Masters' Clay Marvels, Captain America was able to sneak up on the Skull and snap his neck, ending his reign of terror just before the arrival of the Celestials, who had come to scour the Earth of all life. The Celestials were ultimately defeated by Galactus, who removed the Celestial embryo within the Earth's core without destroying the planet.; Following the Skull's defeat, Cyclops would continue to train the X-Men until they became an efficient fighting team. His pupil Charmer developed a crush on Scott, which he was seemingly oblivious of.; ===Universe X===; With the Earth undergoing enormous and destructive climate changes as a result of the planet's loss of mass due to the death of the Celestial embryo, Kree hero Mar-Vell engineered his return from the dead, and launched a quest to gather items of power as part of his plan to destroy Death itself.; Three years after the X-Men reformed, and after Mar-Vell's original guardian, Captain America, had died in battle, the X-Men began aiding Mar-Vell in his quest. They travelled to HEL Laboratories in search of the Emotocaster, where they encountered the Ant Men. Their leader Marionette taught Cyclops to re-activate his psychic rapport with the Phoenix, who now dwelled in the Realm of the Dead. This allowed the two to see through the others' eyes.; They would later travel to Egypt, the Moon and finally Wakanda. There the X-Men would stay behind to help former teammate Storm and her husband the Black Panther relocate the nation of Wakanda to the Savage Land following continued attacks by an army of Wendigos. The X-Men fought a final battle against the Wendigos (revealed to be the Multiple Man) which led to the destruction of the creature. The X-Men would remain in the Savage Land and help the Wakandans rebuild their nation there. This would briefly be interrupted by an attack orchestrated by Belasco and the Dire Wraiths, but the X-Men and Wakandans would be saved by Mar-Vell and his friends.; ===Paradise X===; When Mar-Vell finally succeeded in killing Death, it caused a new problem: nobody on Earth could die, and soon hospitals all over the world began filling up with the mortally wounded. The X-Men relocated to Latveria to aid Reed Richards in easing the suffering of the undying. Cyclops would relay the problems on Earth to the Phoenix Force who had since became a member of the Avenging Host, Mar-Vell's closest servants in the realm of Paradise. The Phoenix herself grew suspicious of Mar-Vell, who was growing increasingly aloof.; The X-Men also attended the wedding of Medusa and King Britain, which served as an impromptu reunion for the old X-Men. This reunion was marred when Cyclops realized that the Sean Cassidy present (really Mephisto in disguise) was an impostor as Banshee had died years ago.; As the heroes on Earth also began to grow suspicious of Mar-Vell, they decided to travel into Paradise via the Negative Zone to learn the truth. However, as Reed Richards was traveling into Paradise, the Phoenix seemingly realised her mistake. She contacted Cyclops again, revealing the nature of Paradise as an extension of Mar-Vell himself and that Mar-Vell had always known that his love would change her and that she would agree with him in the end.; Rather than a bid for personal power, Mar-Vell's Paradise was in fact a shield made to protect the universe from the meddling of the Celestials and the Elders of the Universe. Mar-Vell passed his omniscience to Reed before departing on a quest to find the first, core reality from which all others had emerged.; ==Past Members==; When the Terrigen Mists began to mutate the population of the entire planet, the X-Men soon disbanded because their cause was no longer a problem in society. Further dissolving of the team occurred with the psychic birth of the Skull, whose powers (once they were awoken by the Terrigen Mists) caused a psychic backlash across the astral plane that killed most of Earth's telepaths including X-Men founder, Professor X. The following is a list of the fates of a number of X-Men members on Earth-9997.; Professor X: Professor X was killed at the moment of the Skull's psychic birth. He aided Mar-Vell in his rebellion against Death in the Realm of the Dead. After ascending to Mar-Vell's Paradise, he found himself defending it against a Kree invasion.; Iceman: Iceman lost his ability to change back into human form and was at risk of melting in warm weather and so he relocated to the Arctic region where he built a wonderland, where he mostly lived alone. He eventually returned to New York City when the shifting of Earth's poles caused the city to freeze over. He aided the New York City Police Department in fighting the Church of Immortus. He was last seen at the wedding of Medusa and Captain Britian.; Angel: Angel lost his fortune following the mutation of humanity, but continued to help people in any way he could. He kept in touch with old teammates and would bring rations to the Gargoyle and Kyle Richmond when New York froze over. He later rejoined his old teammate Iceman in defending the city against the Church of Immortus.; Banshee: Banshee was killed by his cousin Black Tom, and eventually made his way to Mar-Vell's Paradise.; Nightcrawler: Nightcrawler joined Excalibur and during a battle against the Grey Gargoyle, he lost an arm and was turned into a human, causing him to be attacked by a mutant mob. He was found by Mephisto who manipulated and turned him into the demon Belasco and sent him back in time. His memories have since been restored by Mar-Vell and he now works with Jude, transporting those unworthy of his gift to Limbo.; Gambit: According to X-51, Gambit was killed by "the same kiss that took Rogue's life", however Beast recounts that Gambit was killed by an assassins' bullet for crimes he committed as a thief. Gambit aided in Mar-Vell's rebellion against Death in the Realm of the Dead.; Rogue: According to X-51, Rogue was killed by a kiss that killed Gambit as well, however the Beast recounts that Rogue was so grief stricken by Gambit's death that she sought a cure for her mutant ability through Sauron, who ended up taking her life as well as her powers.; Dazzler: Dazzler went on a reunion tour that saw less and less numbers at the doors. Later when Death was killed by Mar-Vell and nobody on Earth could die, Mephisto appeared at one of her shows and tore her heart out. She was last seen in a state of eternal suffering in one of the many "hospitals" that were constructed after Death's death. She was presumably granted the gift of death by Jude the Entropic Man.; Longshot: According to X-51 he could not find any trace of Longshot anywhere. His current whereabouts are presently unknown.; Shadowcat: Shadowcat was killed by a gunshot wound when she shielded Colossus' body during a time when he had lost his powers.; Cable: Cable fully succumbed to the technorganic virus in his body and sought refuge below Sentinel City in the Savage Land. While his transformation immobilized him, it saved him from suffering the same fate as the rest of the world's telepaths. When last seen he had sent Iron Maiden on a mission into outer space to find the Eternal named Sersi, who could use her transmutation powers to free him from his eternal prison.; X-Man: Nate Gray became infected with the technorganic virus as well and took on the identity of Stryfe and battled Cable. He died protecting Madelyne Pryor.; Wolverine: Wolverine retired to an apartment in New York City with Jean Grey. Descending into obesity and alchoolism, Jean eventually left him when he wouldn't help the other heroes battle the Celestials. He was later seen at the wedding of Captain Britain and Medusa, where he was briefly reunited with Jean. He returned to his apartment in New York where he brooded over his lot in life until he was visited by his counterpart from Earth-811 who revealed Wolverine's true origins. Rejecting the modern world, Wolverine then left his home to return to the wilds wher he had been born.; Jean Grey: Jean lost her telepathic powers prior to the Skull's psychic birth and thus survived the death of the world's teleapths. She left Scott Summers for Wolverine, and the two retired to an apartment in New York City, where she has lived a life of mediocrity and has put on considerable weight. She later left Wolverine when he would not join the battle against the Celestials. She was last seen at the wedding of King Britain and Queen Medusa.; Phoenix: The Phoenix Force briefly assumed the form of Jean Grey in order to die, as part of a plan by the Elders of the Universe. She ultimately abandoned the Elders and was later recruited into Mar-Vell's rebellion against Death. Later she was transmutated into one of the Avenging Host and maintained a psychic rapport with Scott Summers on Earth. When the Avenging Host opposed Mar-Vell, Phoenix was killed, however she was brought back to life when Reed Richards was passed the cosmic consciousness.; Madrox the Multiple Man: Madrox became a worldwide informant using his duplicates to collect information on happenings around the world. Additionally he was the Beast's lab assistant in Wakanda. At one point one of his doubles was locked out of the Wakandan territory and was forced to feed upon one of his other duplicates, thus invoking the curse of the Wendigo. As a Wendigo, Madrox was able to multiply himself into multiple beasts. As the Wendigo he was responsible for the fall of Canada's Human Torch (and the death of most of Alpha Flight, and made repeated attacks on Wakanda. Later Madrox/Wendigo followed the people of Wakanda to the Savage Land where all the Wendigo were killed by the combined efforts of the Wakandans, the X-Men, and the Ani-Men.; Beast: Beast became the science adviser to the Black Panther in Wakanda. He later relocated to the Savage Land when the entire nation of Wakanda was forced to move due to the threat posed by the Wendigo. He was later present at the wedding of Captain Britain and Medusa, and later was one of the many gathered minds in Latveria to determine how to deal with the crisis of the suffering undead following Mar-Vell killing Death.; Storm: Storm married the Black Panther and became the queen of Wakanda. She was killed during a battle against the Wendigo, but the Black Panther's grief subconsciously willed the Cosmic Cube to bring her back to life. She later relocated with her nation to the Savage Land to escape the Wendigo. She attended the wedding of Medusa and Captain Britain where she and Black Panther arranged for a blood transfusion to cure her counterpart from another reality, of her vampirism.; Colossus: Colossus became ruler of Russia and aided Captain America against the Skull. He was later seen at the wedding of Captain Britain and Medusa.; Havok: Sometime before the mutation of humanity, Havok left Earth with his father Corsair. He has since returned for Captain Britain and Medusa's wedding.; Polaris: Sometime before the mutation of humanity, she left Earth with Havok and his father Corsair. She has since returned for Captain Britain and Medusa's wedding.; Thunderbird: Long dead, Thunderbird has been in the Realm of the Dead. He later joined in Mar-Vell's rebellion against Death.; ===Current Incarnation===; When Captain America was gathering forces to oppose the Skull's march across the United States, he had sent the members of Daredevil's circus troupe ahead to New York City to seek training from Scott Summers, the former X-Man known as Cyclops.; These performers included:; Dogface: A being who was covered head to toe with fur, presumably his mutation is a dog/human hybrid and has enhanced physical attributes that are the proportionate of that of some form of dog.; Tower: Whose mutation has made him physically tall, his exact height is unknown and it appears that he cannot change his height.; Mermaid: Who has a fish like tail and also has the ability to fly.; Double-Header: Who has two heads that appear to have different personalities.; Charmer: Who can create energy snakes of an unknown form of energy, the number of snakes or the size of which have not been determined.

+Trivia: and were offered membership, but they declined.
+History:
+The X-Men seemingly had a similar history as its Earth-616 counterpart. They were formed and led by Professor X.; ===Original Five===; During a period where Professor X was believed deceased, the X-Men relocated to one of Angel's estates: Eagle's Nest, Madripoor. While on a trip to Sydney, Marvel Girl uncovered a plot by the Brood and Daemonites to dominate the world. She called her teammates for back-up and they found her aboard Heaven's Wave. Together with Grey's allies, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents Deadeye and Zealot, they stopped the production of Brood-Dameonite Hybrids, seemingly ending the aliens alliance.; ===Wild Covert Action Teams===; Cerebro detected a Mutant near the Hellfire Club, only to immediately vanish. They stationed Nightcrawler outside the club to gather information on estate owner Cameron Blair. During his investigation, Kurt was attacked by Warblade, who mistook him for a daemonite. Their fight attracted Hellfire guards. The heroes teamed-up after one revealed himself as a daemonite. Reno teleported away before answering any of Kurt's questions. He then teleported back to base and reported the encounter to his fellow X-Men.; They accompanied Nightcrawler on his scouting mission, but were spotted by the guards. They defeated them with the help of the WildC.A.T.s. The X-Men allied with the WildC.A.T.S. to rescue the missing boy. Nightcrawler found him and captured WildC.A.T.S. in a cavern under the house, where Blair had summoned the Lord of All That is Not. They rescued the kidnapped, but preventing the lord from receiving its sacrifice resulted in an explosion. Phoenix and Void contained the blast and the heroes escaped the mansion.; ===Apokolips... Now!===; The X-Men were manipulated by Darkseid into dreaming and seeing visions of their former teammate, Phoenix. They then visited Grey's House and found that her parents, Elaine and John Grey, also had dreams and visions of her. Professor X that there were strange incidents had occurred where the Jean had used the Phoenix Force's powers. Following the trail, the X-Men encountered Deathstroke the Terminator and while they were able to destroy the Psi-Phon, he defeated and captured them.; They were taken to the Source Wall, where Darkseid used the Psychon-Wave to resurrect Dark Phoenix. The villains left, and the X-Men teamed-up with the Teen Titans, who had been captured due to being at Professor Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Cyborg discovered an abandoned Mobius Chair and, after Changeling and Sprite accidentally figured out how it worked, the two teams returned to New York City. They followed the villains to their base and during the ensuring battle, Raven and Professor X psychically weakened the Phoenix-entity so that it was forced to possess the body of Cyclops to survive. Reunion with her former lover returned Phoenix's memory of her life as Jean Grey, and she turned on Darkseid in revenge for his having reawakened her from death. In a mammoth explosion, both Darkseid and Dark Phoenix vanished.; ===Investigation in Tokyo===; Wolverine and Psylocke ran into one another when they independently investigated a sentinel attacked on a Hand stronghold. Finding the situation odd, the two decided to track down the sentinels. Logan followed their scent to a underground lair with and held captive. They freed them only for the sentinels to attack them. The four heroes were able to destroy the sentinels before going their separate ways.

+Notes: After X-Men Evolution and the X-Men Film Series making exceptions to the rule, this X-Men team once again had the original members from the comics, i.e. Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast (without fur), Angel and Iceman.
+History:
+=== The Beginnings ===; Professor Charles Xavier had created the team of gifted mutants to help mankind. They have been created to deal with human prejudice and destructive mutants. First, Xavier had individually approached Cyclops, Iceman, Beast, Angel and Jean Grey. Their first battle against Magneto had proved that the master of magnetism was able to be defeated by children, as despite his seeming victory over the group initially, he failed to stop himself from being struck with an optic blast by Cyclops with the aid of Jean Grey.; === Adding to the Ranks ===; Charles approached Nightcrawler while he was being treated poorly for his appearance in his homeland, and Storm while she was a child and continued to pickpocket. Along the lines, Xavier also recruited Shadowcat and Colossus and invited Wolverine to the institute as well.; === Fall and Return to Grace ===; The team was disbanded when the Xavier mansion was attacked by Emma Frost and the Cuckoos, which triggered Jean's Phoenix powers and to her led to her disappearance and the explosion of the school.; Cyclops retreated to an apartment to morn the loss of Jean, Iceman's and Kitty moved back to their parents' homes, Colossus went back to Russia and Storm returned to her home in Africa. Beast was the only one to remain at the institute working in his lab, while Logan resumed his travels around the world. When the MRD began arresting anyone remotely connected to mutants and Senator Kelly's movement for Mutant Registration was gaining support Wolverine decided it was time that the team should reunite.; After getting Iceman and Kitty back, Logan was contacted by Emma, who had secretly taken Xavier to the shores of Genosha and was now claiming she wanted to help the X-Men find him. As promised, she led them to him and, upon retrieving a comatose Charles, the X-Men accepted Emma into their ranks.; With the help, of a future version of Charles, the X-Men regained some of their old members and fought to avoid an apocalyptic future, where machines were the rulers of the world.; When they finally found Jean, it was revealed that Emma was a spy for Inner Circle, a secret cult who has been looking for the next host of the fiery Phoenix. With Jean safely at Xavier's, Emma knocked everyone out and took her to the Hellfire Club.; There, Emma led a telepathic excursion into Jean's mind to open the various mental blocks Xavier placed, in the hopes of releasing the Phoenix into the atmosphere, where it'd most likely be destroyed. However, after opening the first door, Jean sensed the deception because of her psychic link to Scott Summers, thus forcing Emma and the Cuckoos out. Realizing she required Scott, Emma asked that the Circle postponed until she retrieved him. The Circle mocked her attachment to the X-Men and revealed their revised plan: to use the Phoenix for devastating purposes. Warning them that the Phoenix was too powerful to control, she instructed them not to do anything until she returned.; After saving Scott, Emma was exposed by Selene and Jean used her telekinesis to violently pin the blonde telepath to the wall before leaving. After a message from the future for Logan to trust somebody he was unable to comprehend, he realized it must have meant he was supposed to trust Emma Frost, so he freed her, thus allowing her to sacrifice herself to contain the Phoenix. Her last words were to ask for Scott's forgiveness before dying and exploding, leaving only her dead diamond shards falling from the sky, preventing the Sentinel Apocalypse once and for all.

While many of the X-Men were away, Sabretooth got loose after the mansion's systems went down and killed Bishop, Iceman, and a comatose Emma Frost before going after Beast. While Beast held off Sabretooth, Jubilee got the security systems back online. However, Sabretooth killed Beast and went after Jubilee next. Jubilee fled into the Danger Room and used different simulations to try and shake off Sabretooth. After tricking Sabretooth into attacking the Danger Room's power core, she finished him off with a barrage of laser beams.

+History:
+===First Class===; Prior to the formation of the X-Men, Professor Charles Xavier and his associate, Raven Darkhölme, were contacted by agents of the CIA to help investigate the Hellfire Club, a clandestine organization of mutants with suspected criminal operations. The association with the CIA soon brought Xavier into contact with other mutants, including Erik Lehnsherr, Havok, Darwin, Beast, and Banshee.; Xavier's mutant group then came into conflict with the Hellfire Club, which led to the murder of Darwin at the hand of the Hellfire Club's leader. Xavier resolved to stop the Hellfire Club and began training his young group in preparation for conflicts to come. During subsequent confrontations with the Hellfire Club, Erik and Charles' views regarding the path of the emerging mutant race diverged, resulting in the end of their friendship and the fracturing of their emerging team. Erik, now going by the name "Magneto", left to form the Brotherhood of Mutants, with Darkhölme following him, while Xavier continued to shape the others into a team with a higher purpose: the X-Men.; ===Disbandment===; Not long after Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters opens, the war in Vietnam starts and intensifies, causing many of the school's students and faculty to leave. Xavier eventually shut down the school, and he and Hank isolated themselves within the mansion.; ===Visitor from the Future===; The consciousness of Wolverine from a dystopian future was sent back into the mind of the version of Wolverine living in 1973 to avert the assassination of Bolivar Trask by Mystique. He mentored a disillusioned Xavier and encouraged him to join forces with an imprisoned Magneto to stop Mystique. Magneto betrayed Xavier, Beast and Wolverine and apparently intended harm towards the President and his cabinet. He disabled Wolverine by impaling his body with metal debris and drowning him in the nearby Potomac River in Washington, D.C. Mystique, disguised as the President, shot Magneto and turned her sights onto Trask, but a mental projection of Xavier persuaded her that killing was not the answer and she departed having saved the lives of everyone in the White House safe room. Due to the actions of Mystique, the Sentinel program was cancelled and Trask was arrested for selling military secrets.; ===Ancient Evil===; ===The Phoenix Force===; ===The Merc With A Mouth===; ===New Future===; Following the averted assassination of Trask, Wolverine awoke in the X-Mansion to find Iceman, Rogue, Kitty, Colossus, Storm, Beast, Cyclops, Jean Grey, and Professor X alive and well; the school thriving with activity and no sign of the devastation of the dystopian future. Wolverine had no memory of events between 1973 and the new present.

+Equipment: Cerebro, Psychic-Proof Helmets
+Transportation: X-Men Blackbird
+History:
+The history of the X-Men was identical to that of their counterparts from Earth-616 until they returned from their time in the future. Jean had been asked by Cable to block everyone's memories of the future, but decided that that information was too valuable to lose, and the others agreed.; This knowledge was soon used when they confronted Magneto in Manhattan, with Cyclops coming up with the plan to defeat their foe and to stabilize the bridge afterwards. While the majority of the team was horrified when Marvel Girl wiped his mind with her psychic attack, they let themselves be convinced that it was for the greater good, and accepted Jean's lead after Xavier withdrew his support because of their actions.; Weeks later, the team had settled into a new base at the top floor of a New York skyscraper that Angel used his inheritance to obtain for them. They were still uncomfortable with Marvel Girl's questionable ethics when it came to her telepathy, but followed her without hesitation when she detected a new mutant manifesting while testing the new Cerebro helmet that the Beast created for her. Sadly, the kid was mortally injured when his power proved too much to control, leading to Jean nearly killing herself via overexerting her telepathy while easing his pain while he passed. Meanwhile, the other X-Men rescued the other inhabitants of the building.; Marvel Girl chose to alter the perception of everyone in the area into believing that the damage was due to a gas main exploding, fearing that men like Dr. Trask would use any excuse to launch an attack on mutantkind; ignoring Beast's warnings that this wouldn't work long term, since the evidence wouldn't support that. Sure enough, the truth soon came out, and Dr. Trask sent his Sentinels after the team. Since they couldn't fight them in the city without risking civilian casualties, Scott realised that they had to flee while they still could.; They soon realised that their actions would likely lead to major problems for the wave of newly manifesting mutants they knew was about to occur, so they chose to travel around and rescue everyone they were aware of before they could become targets, starting with Kitty Pryde, Dani Moonstar, and Sam Guthrie. When they arrived at the Xavier School, the team, especially Jean, was surprised to see Xavier playing chess with a partially cured Magneto. The Professor pointed out that Jean's current morals bordered on those of Eric's, although she denied the accusation. This was the point, however, that Angel and Iceman decided that they could no longer follow Marvel Girl's lead, and chose to stay at the school.; This status quo did not last for long, however, as Jean only became more controlling, going so far as to wipe the minds of the Beast and reporter Trish Tilby after the former made contact in an attempt to sway her to their cause. This was the final straw for Cyclops, as he no longer felt he could trust her. He picked up Hank and brought him to Xavier to receive the same treatment that he had been giving Magneto.; Soon, the X-Men were watching the news at the X-Mansion and saw Jean had merged with the Phoenix Force and was killing anti-mutant leaders on live television, even burning some alive. Realizing that she had to be stopped, Scott led every battle ready member of the team, which now counted Magneto among its number, to fight and distract her while the Professor attempted to reason with her on a psychic level. Sadly, this ultimately failed, and the X-Men perished when Jean lost control and disintegrated everything around her.

The Avengers believed the Phoenix Force was way too powerful for the X-Men to leave them control it to their cravings, and that it would ultimately corrupt them and destroy the world. After facing Emma Frost, the Avengers concluded the Phoenix Force was indeed corrupting those five X-Men.; The X-Men continued to face the Avengers and other enemies trying to get their hands on the Phoenix Force's powers, and ultimately, the Phoenix Force left the mutants, and Earth. With their differences settled, both the X-Men and the Avengers continued to fight in the same side.

+History:
+The X-Men are a superhero team consisting solely of mutants. All members are students of Professor X, and have been trained into a superhero team by him mainly to maintain peace between humanity and mutantkind. 2 of their members, Cyclops and Beast, had been invited by Tony Stark to attend the presentation of the DISKs, but while there fell victim to Loki and, just like the Avengers, got trapped in the DISKs themselves. In the aftermath of these events, Wolverine tracked down their DISKs to keep them out of the wrong hands, and was send to Techno Isle by professor X to try and find a new mutant, Noriko Ashida, whose powers could potentially be used to free the captured X-Men and Avengers from their DISKs.; When Noriko was tricked by Okuma Jubei to steal the Avengers' DISKs for him under the false pretense that he would remove her powers if she did, the X-Men came to the aid of the Avengers' young partners. Together, they figured out where Loki's base was and went there to get the stolen DISKs back. They defeated the Destroyers guarding the palace, but then found themselves under attack from a group of Sentinels. These were defeated when their old enemy, Magneto, came to their aid in an attempt to recruit Noriko for his team. Once inside the palace, the X-Men and the kids were confronted by M.O.D.O.K., Baron Zemo, Abomination, Tiger Shark, Graviton and Sabretooth. The X-Men fought them off to buy the kids time to find their Partners, and actually managed to defeat the villains.; After Loki was defeated, the X-Men went back to America, with Noriko now as a new member.

But at some point during the five years that passed after Inhuman zealots attacked mutantkind, thinking the change of the cloud was profane, both Magneto and Magik died. Several mutants who used to be X-Men, namely Goldballs, Rachel Grey, Nightcrawler, Polaris and Xorn, lived together with Negasonic Teenage Warhead in an abandoned temple in Cambodia.

+History:
+A team of mutants led by Professor X.; After being attacked by Sentinels while visiting a mall, the X-Men defended civilians from the onslaught, quickly destroying the Sentinels. Soon after, Baron Kelly arrived at the site, and spoke with the X-Men about the establishment of the Clear Mountain Institute, a rehabilitation center for mutants.; The X-Men were sent to investigate the Institute, and were met by its director, Cassandra Nova, who then insisted on giving the X-Men a tour of Clear Mountain. Using a form of psychotherapy she called the "Mind Field," she rehabilitated dangerous mutants such as Sabretooth. Cassandra Nova convinced the X-Men to try this psychotherapy, where they were then trapped as subjects of the Mind Field. In here, they faced individual visions and hallucinations, seeing clones of their past selves, their history and trauma, or seeing themselves turned into puppets or otherwise mutilated or abused. While Gambit, Rogue, and Wolverine succumbed to the psychotherapy, mutants who were unfit for the Mind Field were sent below Clear Mountain to strip down Sentinels for parts. Here, Beast was reunited with Jubilee, who was not affected by the Mind Field. The X-Force broke into Clear Mountain to free the mutant victims. Cassandra Nova revealed to the mutants her plans to assassinate Baron Kelly via the Ten-Sentinel, when Storm rallied the X-Force and the Rej-X (those deemed unfit for the Mind Field) against Nova.; The mutants defended Baron Kelly against Cassandra Nova and her sentinels, which resulted in Wolverine breaking away from his psychotherapy, while Rogue and Gambit were taken down, Gambit not breathing. After seeing the harm that had been caused, Professor X used his powers to separate the Shadow King from Cassandra Nova, who was revealed to have been possessing her and causing her to do such evil. Resuscitated by Caliban, Gambit joins Rogue and the other X-Men in the fight against the sentinels and the Ten-Sentinel, as well as the newly separated Shadow King. After being defeated by the mutants, the Shadow King was trapped inside a weapon which was fired, sending him into the sky. Not free from danger yet, the Ten-Sentinel continued its attacks on the mutants. While Jubilee fired a massive weapon at it, Gambit rode a kinetically charged motorcycle into it, causing a large explosion, and him to fall into Rogue's arms. Turning the weapon to fully automatic, Jubilee relentlessly fired at the Ten-Sentinel, causing it to shut down, and for her to lose her footing and be sent back. Jubilee wakes up in a hospital surrounded by the X-Men, where it is revealed that Wolverine dismantled the Ten-Sentinel off-panel.; With the victory, new members joined the X-Men, such as Psylocke, a previous member of the X-Force.

+History:
+The origins and history of the X-Men of Earth-21993 mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts. However, there would be a divergence point when Professor X would return to Earth following being a captive of the Skrulls. Finding that his X-Men were in disarray, he would call together a meeting between the X-Men, New Mutants and X-Factor. During the meeting Xavier and Cable would come to an argument over the course of action that mutants would have to take in dealing with threats against their race. Finding that Cable was a detriment to their cause, Xavier would drive Cable and the New Mutants into battling the X-Men and X-Factor and leaving. Deciding that Xavier was a threat that needed to be neutralized, Cable would assassinate Xavier, Cyclops and Marvel Girl.; Their deaths would divide the X-Men into two camps, one lead by Storm seeking to bring Cable to justice, and another led by Wolverine bent on vengeance and the elimination of all the X-Men's foes. While mutants like Jubilee and Banshee would die at the hands of the X-Men's foes others would pick sides. Forge, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Beast, Captain Britain, Polaris, Strong Guy and Siryn would join Storm's side, while Havok, Dazzler, Jubilee, Psylock and Archangel would join Wolverine's. Learning of the X-Men's death evil mutants would begin targeting the group killing off many of their members, and staging attacks all over the world, prompting the government to reinstate operation Wide Awake. Wolverine's group would ultimately catch up with the New Mutants and Wolverine would slay Cable. During this time, Magneto would attempt to unite all the worlds mutants under a common banner, many from the ranks of the X-Men would end up joining Magneto's team, especially from Wolverine's camp when it became apparent that Wolverine's obsessions with revenge were getting the better of him.; When Magneto proved to be too powerful, the government would rig Sentinels with nuclear weapons, prompting the over confident Magneto to accidentally detonate the missiles killing himself and all them mutants in his care, including of the X-Men who defected to him. Other surviving mutants were either eliminated by Sentinels or placed in mutant concentration camps. Wolverine, realizing the errors of his ways would come across the dying body of Sabastian Shaw, who would pass onto him a device that would allow him and those in his proximity to be immune to the Sentinels. Breaking into one of the concentration camps, Wolverine would liberate Ice Man, Sunder, Amphibious, Siryn and La Bandera to form a new team of X-Men.

Their target was X-Man Triage whose mutant powers included healing. The Press Gang hoped that his powers could be used to cure the Extinction Virus, which was ravaging the mutant that lived on their island home of Genosha.; The Press Gang was successful in capturing Triage and were also able to kidnap X-Men Rogue. Angry over the damage caused by the attack as well the treachery involved, Baron Summers gathered her X-Men to decided to attack Genosha.; As Triage and Rogue cured the inflicted of the Extinction Virus, Baron Summers and her X-Men launched their attack. During the fight between the X-Men and the Press Gang, it was discovered that scientist Dr. Aldus Kluge was using Triage's healing power to resurrect Cameron Hodge, the former leader of the anti-mutant government that used to govern Genosha. Press Gang member Bulletproof killed Kluge in retaliation.; Despite Kluge's death, Hodge's resurrection was successful. Empowered by the Transmode Virus that was taken from Warlock and an Adamantium skeleton, Hodge easily overwhelmed the X-Men and Press Gang. Hodge was eventually stopped when X-Man Bombshell and Press Gang leader Havok combined their powers in a massive explosion while Press Gang member Wolfsbane crashed the X-Men's Blackbird into Hodge.

+Equipment: Magneto's Helmet, remains of a Sentinel
+Transportation: Lockheed
+History:
+The X-Men were torn apart as a team as the Mutant Control Act was passed, leading to mutants and other superhumans to be contained in camps, where they were sterilized and used for experiments. The streets of the United Doomstates were constantly patrolled by Sentinels. Those that remained were scattered to the four winds. X-Men Colossus, Ariel, Phoenix, and Magneto were held in the South Bronx Mutant Containment Center. Colossus and Ariel would later give sire a child, "Chrissie".; To keep their companions alive, Ariel and Chrissie were forced to help the government hunt down unregistered mutants. Secretly, however, the pair slowly collected chemicals to rid themselves of the mutation-suppression collars they were forced to wear. During a search for the last needed chemical, Chrissie ran into former X-Men Wolverine who was then taken to the Containment Center. Also being held in the Containment Center was Wolverine's son Cameron Logan.; Eventually, Phoenix and Chrissie broke free from their collars and help their companions escape as Sentinels bore down upon them. The X-Men then encounter the mutants Mystique and Blob who had been manipulated by President Kelly into attacking the escaping mutants so the public would be convinced that mutants were still a threat and that the Mutant Control Act should remain.; During the fight, Cameron killed Blob. As more Sentinels started to come, the X-Men and Mystique were forced to flee together. They fled to Centrum, an underground refuge for mutants, where they reunite with X-Men Storm and Angel. A downed Sentinel was examined, and the X-Men discovered that it was reprogrammed by President Kelly to fabricate an assassination attempt on him so he could blame mutants for it. Then Sentinels smashed through Centrum's ceiling after finding it. Chrissie decided to call upon Centrum's final line of defense to halt the Sentinels' attack, a giant-sized Lockheed.; While Lockheed dealt with the Sentinels, the X-Men escape Centrum. During the escape, Chrissie accidentally told Cameron that he wasn't Wolverine's son but really the son of Colossus and Ariel. Wolverine had adopted him when he was a baby after his parents were captured by Sentinels. Ariel took her two children to Doom Cathedral in Coney Island, which was ran as a sacred place by former X-Man Nightcrawler. The four decided to help liberate mutants being held in a nearby internment camp and take them to the cathedral. However, when they enter the camp, they fell into a trap set up by the mutants by Pyro, Avalanche, and Destiny and the United Doomstates Army sent by President Kelly.; Chrissie convinced the mutants being held to rise up and fight. This allowed Chrissie and her companions to kill Avalanche and subdue Pyro. The rest of Destiny's and Kelly's forces were defeated when Magneto arrived controlling the Sentinel examined in Centrum as a weapon. It was then discovered that Magneto and Phoenix had reprogrammed the Sentinel with the DNA sequences of Chrissie and Cameron. This way, the Sentinel would target the pair and kill them so they would become martyrs for the mutant cause. When confronted, Magneto took Chrissie hostage and fled with the Sentinel. However, Cameron snuck into the robot and killed Magneto. After the Sentinel fell to the ground, Chrissie argued with Cameron over killing Magneto. Cameron revealed that he had become self-loathing as a mutant and even believed the world would be a better place without mutants. Cameron now planned to use the Sentinel to try to assassinate President Kelly and force him to finally kill off all mutants once and for all. Chrissie opposed this and fought Cameron.; Cameron was forced to flee and challenged Chrissie to to stop him at the National Plaza in Manhattan. When Cameron arrived at the Plaza, the X-Men had already forced Air Force One carrying President Kelly to land. Cameron entered the plane and took Kelly hostage. Chrissie later arrived while riding Lockheed with Wolverine and Ariel. While the X-Men fended off Sentinels and Kelly's troops, Chrissie got Kelly to safety with Lockheed and asked him to rethink the Mutant Reform Act. Using Lockheed's fire, Chrissie heated up her metal blades and confronted her brother for the last time before killing him. After the dust settled, the X-Men fled the scene and returned to Nightcrawler's church. Kelly's forces asked for permission to fire at them, but he ordered them to stand down. Once the mutants arrived at the church, they heard helicopters and sirens coming unsure if they were friend or foe.

+The X-Men had already formed by 1980 and continued to operate for another fifteen years before the tragedy struck. In 1995 Logan had asked them and Talisman to help him banish the Truth, a demon that would come back once every decade. Logan ha faced the demon before with the help of Sylvie D'Arqueness, a powerful magician, but this time he was alone. Talisman had teleported the team to the demon's location that moment it emerged into the world, which turned out to be during the eruption of the Soufrière Hills volcano in the Caribbean. The X-Men was ill-prepared to face the demon and Cyclops was killed, while Talisman was unable to banish the Truth without the proper spell, which Logan did not know. The Truth then killed Talisman and Storm before finally being banished by Reine du Rien, whom Logan recognized as his daughter with Sylvie. After the disaster, the X-Men and Logan had parted ways and he was left alone.

+History:
+===X-Men Origins: Wolverine===; William Stryker sent his son Jason to Xavier's school in hopes of ridding his mutation, regarding it as a disease that he believed needed be cured. Xavier had no interest or belief in 'curing' mutants, which angered Stryker. Later, Xavier helped liberate the mutant children held prisoner by Stryker at Three Mile Island. He took them in an flew off in his helicopter with Scott Summers and Emma Silverfox. Summers would go on to lead the X-Men.; After finding Jean Grey, Xavier began controlling her with telepathic blocks because he believed her class 5 powers were too much for her to handle. Her bottled up powers manifested themselves as an id-like alternate personality called the "Phoenix" — a purely instinctual creature, ruled only by its own violent desires. At some point he recruited Ororo Munroe.; ===X-Men===; In Canada, Cyclops and Storm saved Wolverine and the young runaway Rogue from the Brotherhood's Sabretooth and brought them to the X-Mansion. Xavier offered to help Wolverine learn the secrets of his forgotten past.; Mystique infiltrated the school and sabotaged Cerebro. When Xavier used Cerebro he fell into a coma. Despite his absence Wolverine and the X-Men prevented Magneto from mutating the leaders at the World Summit on Liberty Island. Magneto intended to use Rogue's ability to absorb other mutant's abilities on himself so that Rogue could power his machine. Placing his hand to her face, Wolverine succeeded in transferring his regenerative abilities to a dying Rogue, saving her. Professor Xavier recovered from his coma and Magneto was taken into custody.; Later, Xavier visited Magneto in his plastic prison cell, and the two played chess. Magneto warned his friend that he would continue his fight, to which Xavier promised that he and the X-Men would always be there to stop him.; ===X2: X-Men United===; William Stryker began experimenting on mutants, using a drug injected directly into the back of the neck to control them. He used Nightcrawler, a teleporting mutant, to orchestrated an attack on the President in the White House, but Nightcrawler failed and escaped. Storm and Jean tracked Nightcrawler down.; Cyclops and Professor X were captured by Stryker and his assistant Yuriko Oyama. Stryker had his troops raid the X-Mansion with the soldiers sedating every student they could find. Some were taken to Stryker's base located at Alkali Lake, inside the dam, while others escaped. Wolverine, along with Rogue, Iceman and Pyro, escaped to Iceman's home in Boston. After a 9-1-1 call by Bobby's brother Ronnie, the police arrived leading a dispute with Pyro. Jean and Storm arrived in the X-Jet to pick them all up. The X-Men teamed with Magneto and Mystique to stop Stryker.; Stryker had stolen enough equipment from Xavier's own Cerebro unit to build a second Cerebro, with which he planned use to kill all of the world's mutants. Stryker gained control over Professor Xavier through his son, Jason Stryker, who was able to project powerful visions in the mind, blinding a person to reality. Professor X was instructed to use Cerebro to find and kill all existing mutants. Mystique, disguised as Stryker, used Jason to convince Professor X to kill all humans. Nightcrawler teleported Storm inside of Cerebro, where she freed the Professor from his telepathic illusion.; Jean, Magneto, and Mystique were attacked by a brainwashed Cyclops on their way to rescue Professor X, causing damage to the generators that kept the dam from collapsing. The force of Jean's telekinetic blast awakened Cyclops from his brainwashing. Wolverine found Stryker in an adamantium smelting room along with Lady Deathstrike. Wolverine and Deathstrike fought. Wolverine was forced to kill her. Magneto and Mystique used Stryker's helicopter to escape Alkali Lake, chaining Stryker to concrete rubble. Wolverine found Stryker on a landing pad, where Stryker attempted to bargain for his life Wolverine. Wolverine left him for dead.; A malfunction aboard the X-Jet prevented it from taking off, and the dam finally burst. The flood got stronger, drowning Stryker. Jean left the jet and created a telekinetic wall in order to stop the wave, and at the same time raised the jet above the flood waters, all the while surrounded by a corona of fire. Jean activated the X-Jet's primary engines before releasing the torrent of water down on herself.; The X-Men were able to supply the President with files from Stryker's private offices. Professor X warned him that humans and mutants would have to work together to build peace, or they would destroy each other through war. Rogue and Iceman were promoted to X-Men.; ===X-Men: The Last Stand===; Kitty Pryde and Peter Rasputin were promoted to the X-Men. A pharmaceutical company called Worthington Labs announced that it had developed an inoculation to permanently suppress the X-gene that gives mutants their powers, offering the so-called "cure" to any mutant who wanted it. The cure was derived from a mutant boy named Jimmy. While some mutants were interested in the cure, including Rogue, many others were horrified by the announcement.; In response to the news, Magneto decided to raise an army, warning his followers that the cure would be used to exterminate the mutant race. Magneto ambushed a military transport and freed Juggernaut, Mystique and Multiple Man, during which Mystique blocked a shot of the mutant cure aimed at Magneto, only to be left behind because she was not "one of them" anymore.; Cyclops, still heartbroken about the loss of Jean Grey, returned to Alkali Lake. Jean appeared to Cyclops, and as the two kissed, Jean changed killed Cyclops. Sensing trouble, Professor Charles Xavier sent Wolverine and Storm to investigate. When they arrived, the two X-Men encountered an unconscious Jean. The majority of Jean's power was seated in her unconscious mind and her powers were largely fueled by instinct, and not under her complete control.; Jean pleaded with Wolverine to kill her before she could harm anybody else, but when he refused the Phoenix surfaced and fled to her childhood home. Magneto, also aware that Jean's powers were loose, met Xavier at Jean's house. The two men pleaded for Jean's loyalty until the Phoenix resurfaced, unleashing her devastating power. Furious at being caged within Jean's subconscious for twenty years, she destroyed her family's house and engaged in a psychic battle with Xavier. She eventually overpowered and disintegrated Xavier, then left with Magneto, temporarily weakened.; The X-Men regrouped and confronted Magneto's army, which was attacking the pharmaceutical company's laboratory on Alcatraz Island, which was being guarded only by a company of soldiers. During the battle, Kitty Pryde saved Jimmy, Iceman went one-on-one with Pyro, and Beast injected Magneto with the cure, nullifying his mutant powers. Wolverine nearly coaxed Jean back to sanity. However, after the soldiers fired upon Jean the Phoenix quickly emerged and began to disintegrate everything and everyone around her. Wolverine fought his way to Jean, relying upon his healing abilities to save him from her destructive power. Momentarily gaining control, Jean begged Wolverine to save her. Telling Jean he loved her, Wolverine reluctantly killed her with his claws.; Despite the X-Men's losses, life went on. The school continued, even without Xavier. Pained by her inability to get physically close to her boyfriend, Rogue decided to take the mutant cure. Magneto, now an ordinary man, sat at a chessboard and reached out toward a metal chess piece that trembles slightly — indicating that the cure might not be as permanent as originally thought.; Dr. Moira MacTaggert checked on a comatose patient who greeted her with Xavier's voice. Xavier had transferred his mind into this new body.; ===The Wolverine===; Not long after the events on Alcatraz Island, the X-Men disbanded due to their few numbers (though the school remained active). However, Magneto and the restored Professor X soon realized that the team needed to re-assemble for a problem with ramifications on all mutants. Together they gathered many of their pupils, though only Wolverine was shown being recruited.; ===Days of Future Past===; Former X-Men Kitty Pryde, Iceman, and Colossus teamed up with Sunspot, Bishop, Blink, and Warpath to help survive against the Sentinels. The plan was that since Warpath can detect Sentinels, he would alert them so they could get ready and fight the Sentinels while Kitty sends Bishop's mind back a few days to alert them of the coming attack. Blink scouts the next location and they're gone before the Sentinels know they're there.; They meet up with Xavier and the remaining X-Men at a Chinese monastery. Pop while Kitty sends Wolverine's mind back in time, the others prepare for battle. After a unknown amount of time, Warpath detects 12 Sentinel ships headed their way. Storm creates a Storm that takes down a few ships but the majority of them remained and began to release hundreds of Sentinels. She then sends a lightning bolt at Bishop to power him. Blink opens a portal towards the Sentinels and Bishop fires into it. Magneto lifts the X-jet into the air and sends it flying towards the Sentinels. Storm sends a lightning bolt at it's fuel cell, which blows up destroying the thousands of Sentinels. The debris hits the monastery, but Magneto is able to stop most of it, but is stabbed by a piece of shrapnel.; The X-Men turn to look at Magneto, when a Sentinel jumps up and stabs Storm in the back and throws her off the cliff. Bishop then fires at the Sentinel. The team looks up to see dozens of Sentinels climbing down the mountain towards them. Three Sentinels surround Bishop and fire onto him. He absorbs the blast to the point where he explodes. Sunspot lights himself on fire and flies up, setting Sentinels on fire. Magneto uses the X-Jet debris to seal the vault even further. Blink then teleports him inside where he makes peace with Xavier and dies. Blink opens a portal and Colossus jumps through it, sending him into the sky. After building up enough momentum, Blink sends him flying into a sentinel.; The X-Men make their last stand as they buy as much time as possible. Colossus throws a punch at a Sentinel, which jumps over him and grabs his arms as another grabs his legs and they pull until he is ripped in half. Warpath jumps onto a firing Sentinel, only to be pulled in to it's blast. A Sentinel turns into a diamond form and another into a Rock form to combat Sunspot's fires and surrounds him. One cuts off his arm and then kicks him to another Sentinel, which stabs him. Sentinels fire onto Blink, but she redirects the blast at other Sentinels but is eventually overrun and stabbed to death.; The Sentinels make their way into the vault. Iceman tries to freeze it but with little success. The Sentinels fire onto him, painfully killing him. They turn to execute Kitty and Xavier, but then the timeline is changed forever as Mystique drops the gun and spares Trask.

+Base of operations: Xavier Institute
+History:
+The Story begins with Aliyah, an heir to the Shi'ar throne and the daughter of Lucas Bishop and Deathbird (the princess of the Shi'ar Empire and sister to Lilandra), in her sentient ship, the Starjammer (which is inhabited by the spirit of Carol Danvers). Aliyah is flying through space when she witnesses a Kree dreadnought entering orbit around a planet. Deciding to investigate, she lands on the planet to discover that the coalition of the Slavers (multi-dimensional traders of everything) have brokered a deal with the Kree for the Phoenix Egg, which the Kree hope to use against the Shi'ar. Realizing the danger to her people, Aliyah knows that she must warn the Shi'ar, but she is attacked by the Slavers' brainwashed mutant-bodyguards, the Hounds. Just as that happens, Shi'ar warships appear in space and start attacking the Kree ship in orbit. The Kree on the planet attempt to flee, when it is revealed that one of their troops is a Skrull agent, who proceeds to blow the Kree landing-transport out of the sky. Just then, as the Slavers' decide to make a hasty retreat through their inter-dimensional portal, Brood eggs begin to land and hatch on the planet, killing any remaining Kree troops and going after Aliyah. In the meantime, the Phoenix Egg hatches, revealing Jean Grey, the previous bearer of the Phoenix Force. Jean Grey helps Aliyah escape onto her ship, saving Nightcrawler's enslaved alternate reality daughter, Nocturne, in the meantime. Both the Shi'ar and the Brood are apparently after a new stargate network.; Aliyah forces her ship to jump to warp inside the planet's atmosphere, which destroys the planet, and its star, and all ships in orbit. Jean Grey saves the Starjammer by manifesting the Phoenix Force. This discharge is noted by several parties: Scott and Emma Summers and their four children; Rachel Grey, campaign manager for Kitty Pryde's Chicago mayoral election campaign; Professor X; Cable; Logan and Storm, living in a house in Kenya; and Mr. Sinister, who notes that all the pieces are finally back on the board to allow him to restart his plans for world domination.; It is revealed that Mr. Sinister had himself made a deal with the Slavers for the Phoenix egg, and he becomes rather upset at the Slavers' representative for forgetting all the help he had given them with genetic samples of mutants (including the X-Men). Sinister sends his minions (Shaitan, Divinity, Technarx, Shakti, and Scalphunter) to kill most X-Force members, including Cable - seemingly succeeding in killing all but a few (Feral, Rictor, and Domino survive). Cable is infected with a techno-organic virus (via Technarx) that he cannot resist.; Shi'ar Empress Lilandra orders Phoenix destroyed once more. Her Lord Chancellor makes his own plans and orders the X-Men killed once and for all, and sends shape-shifting Warskrulls to Earth. Warskrulls attack every X-man on Earth, including Storm and Logan in Africa, Emma Summers and Rogue in California, and Iceman and Sage in X-Corp headquarters.; Emma and Rogue survive only to realize that Rogue's home has been attacked and both Emma's (and Scott's) and Rogue's (and Gambit's) children have been taken, apparently by Mr. Sinister, with Gambit seemingly betraying his wife and team to deliver the children to Sinister in person.; The first series ends with an attack on the Xavier Institute by Stryfe, Genesis, and Madelyne Pryor, all of whom turn out to be Warskrulls (except, as revealed only in Book 3, Madelyne). As the X-Men at Xavier's try to defend themselves, the deaths of many students and staff ensue and the mansion is once again destroyed with an explosion so large that it takes a large area of the landscape and all of the mansion's lower levels with it. Only a few students and X-Men escape.; Where the estate once resided has been replaced with a mile-wide crater. Northstar, having saved Cyclops, dies from internal injuries. It is revealed that he joins the rest of the original Alpha Flight in the hereafter. Kitty Pryde, who is now falling behind in the polls, returns to Chicago, IL, to continue her campaign for mayor. The X-Men and their allies quickly regroup but they almost immediately all come under attack by the next wave of Warskrulls. During the strategic attack on all of the various groups across the globe, the Skrulls are barely repelled (but not without heavy losses).; It is revealed that Sinister wants Rogue's and Emma's children as genetic stock for the future, since he has concluded that the X-Men are done for.; In space Nocturne is cured by Phoenix with the help of Nightcrawler, whom she brought aboard the Starjammer in the first book. It is revealed, in the process of freeing Nocturne's mind, that Lilandra (by brokering a deal with the Slavers for a Brood queen from a dimension where the Brood were not extinct) is responsible for the Brood returning to this dimension. Lilandra was able to accomplish this, in part, by allowing her captured sister to act as the host for the Brood Queen. Both Lilandra and the Slavers made this arrangement in order to defeat Khan, who threatened Lilandra's throne and the Slavers' trade routes in this dimension. Aliyah learns of this the hard way by wandering into a dark (i.e., depowered) section of her ship and being attacked by Deathbird/Brood queen (who was stowed away on the ship for years). In the resulting battle, Aliyah is forced to kill her mother (but not before Aliyah is infected by the Brood Queen, something that no one on board the ship notices when she returns to the bridge).; Cyclops sends Wolverine, X-23, M, and Marvel Girl to find Sinister, Gambit, and the missing Summers and LeBeau children. The group manages to find their way to Sinister's hidden base but are immediately immobilized by an attack from the Ladies Mastermind. All live out their fantasies until Wolverine, who is inspired by the astral form of Jean Grey to fight, does so. He breaks free of the mind control and helps the others break free. They all charge deeper into Sinister's base.; Gambit has indeed been faking cooperation with Sinister, only doing so in order to protect the children. After Sinister reveals his own history and the fact that Gambit is actually a clone from his and Cyclops's genetic makeup, Gambit decides enough is enough and goes to rescue his and Emma's children. As they make their escape, most of the children are teleported back to Earth, while Gambit and his daughter are teleported to the moon, near Sinister's mutant prison, Neverland. Rogue rescues her son and Emma's children from the place they got teleported to and is filled in by her son about what happened.; Back at Sinister's hidden base, Rogue has joined the fray (caused by Wolverine and others) and kills one of Sinister's minions. Before she can rejoin her loved ones, she is slain by Sinister who was masquerading as her husband, Gambit. Raven Darkhölme arrives, revealing that she had been pretending to be the Dark Beast (who was in service of Sinister) all along, and extracts her revenge for the loss of her beloved daughter by finally killing Mr. Sinister. Gambit is able to use the portal to get back to Sinister's base just in time to see Sinister killing Rogue. They say their final farewell before Rogue dies. Gambit urges Mystique to finally meet her grandchildren and keep them safe. Gambit takes Sinister's place for a meeting with the true masterminds behind the attacks on the X-Men, the Shi'ar.; Book 2 comes to a close with Kitty debating her opponent, Alice Tremaine (head of the Anti-Mutant Purity Movement) and with her receiving the news that the X-Men are going into space to face the Shi'ar.; The X-Men (including Professor X and Magneto, in person) take the battle to the Shi'ar. It turns out that Khan (whose invasion of Earth the X-Men prevented in the pages of X-Treme X-Men and the reason why Lilandra tried to bring the Brood to this dimension, as mentioned above) is actually Lord Chancellor of the Shi'ar Empire, i.e., the administrator of law, with Lilandra being just the figurehead after being driven insane by Cassandra Nova. It was his plan to destroy the X-Men and kill Lilandra to get the Shi'ar throne. Gambit, however, instantly recognizes Khan - they battle and end up killing each other.; As the X-Men (Cyclops, X-23, M, Captain Britain, and a few others arriving through the wormhole created by Magneto and his daughter, Lorna) begin to battle Lilandra's guard on Chandilar (the Imperial Shi'ar throneworld), the Starjammer arrives in orbit. Storm, Iceman, and a few others form a Plan B contingent and fly to Chandilar in an X-Jet via a space portal.; It is revealed that Cassandra Nova is the mastermind behind everything. She has been hiding in Xavi, the son of Lilandra and Xavier, all this time. She begins to reveal herself to everyone involved, starting with Xavier (who, thinking she was inhabiting Lilandra, mistakenly kills her). On the Starjammer, the Brood eggs have multiplied thanks to Aliya and have begun landing on the Shi'ar home planet. Also, Cassandra reveals herself to the Phoenix through Aliya's mind. The Brood, having made a deal with Cassandra, begin attacking X-Men.; Cassandra Nova attacks the X-Men and the Shi'ar Imperial Guard. She then begins to erase Xavier's mind. Marvel Girl summons her residual Phoenix Force energies and engages Cassandra in psychic battle. Meanwhile Cable uses his vast telekinetic powers to fight Cassandra on the physical level, but succumbs to his techno-organic virus he was infected with as a baby and re-infected with in book one.; Jean Grey, once again the Phoenix, uses her powers to heal Cable, when, suddenly, she (and Cyclops) are killed by a psionic blast fired by a mind-controlled Marvel Girl. Cassandra's astral form leaps out of Marvel Girl's mind, and merges with the Phoenix Force. Cassandra begins killing the Imperial Guard, and Dazzler fires a laser beam through Cassandra's forehead, while Storm and Iceman hit her with their elemental powers. However, Cassandra rises from defeat and re-doubles attacks on the X-Men. Only Madelyne Pryor, who has been impersonating Dust (thanks to her black niqāb) all along, after killing her in Book 1, stands in her way. Madelyne reveals that she is the part of Jean Grey that loved Scott with all her heart, and that was the reason that Cyclops' and Jean's marriage failed. Madelyne turns into energy and fuses with Jean Grey, who awakens and heals Cyclops.; As Jean Grey (still able to access some of her Phoenix powers) and Nova fight, Psylocke enters the fray and plunges her psi-katana in Cassandra's brain, immobilizing her. Jean Grey tells Cassandra that they are all going to transcend reality. Jean resurrects all of the defeated/dead X-Men, bringing some with her to become one with the universe while bringing others back to Earth. Xavier and Cassandra admit that they are scared of each other, and Jean tells them that this is part of being human. Then, she and the resurrected X-Men form a giant Phoenix and become part of the universe itself.; The remaining X-Men not part of the Phoenix are seen 20 years later, when Katherine Pryde becomes President of the United States. She disbands the X-Men, saying that the X-Men were their own worst enemy, and that it was time for something new. She emphasizes this is not an end, but a beginning.; In the final frames, as Kitty Pryde makes a speech, Wolverine is shown together with Psylocke, and X-23 behind them. Emma Summers is shown with her grown up children. Mystique is shown with her two grandchildren; Gambit's son is holding a baby. Beast is shown with Cecilia Reyes and three children. Iceman and Magma are shown together. Samuel Guthrie (Cannonball) is shown with his wife, Lila Cheney, and their trio of children. Kurt Wagner, Nightcrawler, is shown with his wife and two children. Aliya Bishop, now the Majestrix of the Shi'ar, is shown with her father, Lucas Bishop, now an Imperial Chancellor. Jean Grey (Phoenix), Marvel Girl, Gambit and Rogue, Havok and Lorna, Alpha Flight, Professor X and Cassandra, Storm, Angel with Husk, Cyclops, Madelyne, Dust, Cable, Lilandra, Sage, Colossus, Hub, and a few others are shown above the crowd looking down from the other side, as it were.

+Reality: Earth-51518
+Base of operations: Underground hideout; Formerly:; Savage Land, Domain of Apocalypse
+Equipment: Magneto's Helmet
+History:
+The history of this incarnation of the X-Men likely mirrors that of the X-Men of Earth-295. The X-Men were created by Magneto to bring humans and mutants together in peace, but they would eventually end up fighting the tyranny of Apocalypse, the baron of the Domain of Apocalypse.; They originally resided in the Savage Land where a sanctuary was being built by humans and mutants who fled from Apocalypse's rule where they could live in peace. However, the sanctuary was destroyed when Holocaust and Apocalypse's Infinite Soldiers invaded the Savage Land in pursuit of a mutant named Cypher. The X-Men fought Holocaust to prevent Cypher's capture, and several were killed when they removed Holocaust's armor causing him to violently explode.; Cypher was later found alive by Apocalypse's servants and taken Apocalypse's capital of New Cairo (formerly New York City). Cypher was interrogated by Mister Sinister's Prelates, Scott and Alex Summers aka Cyclops and Havok respectively. The interrogation failed to get any information, and Cypher was sent to the Human Compound. While being held, Cypher overheard a conversation between the Summers Brothers and human representatives, the subject being a deadly virus that could wipe out mutantkind but leave humans unscathed. Cypher was later rescued by the X-Men.; Along with rescuing Cypher, Cyclops was captured and taken to the X-Men's secret underground hideout. X-Man Emma Frost, Magneto's wife, was able to connect to the mind of psychic mutant Jean Grey, who was being held in the lab of Doctor Nemesis, assistant to Apocalypse servant Dark Beast. From Jean Grey's mind, Frost learned of the existence of the Legacy Virus and alerted the other X-Men of this. The X-Men decided to go the Human Communal Village where the virus was and retrieve it so the humans or anyone else with malicious intentions couldn't use it.; However, Baron Apocalypse was already aware of the virus' existence and sent his Elite Mutant Force and Horsemen to attack the village. The Force and Horsemen arrived before the X-Men did, and the two groups fought one another for the virus. As the fight appear to be going the X-Men's way, Apocalypse suddenly appeared and beat the X-Men back. He stated his intention of releasing the virus to see who was truly fit to survive. As the virus quickly some mutants, X-Men Iceman chose to freeze the entire area including Apocalypse to keep the virus contained.; Elsewhere, the X-Men Weapon X and Burner and Prelate Cyclops went to Dark Beast's lab in search of Jean Grey in order to rescue her. They were confronted by Cyclops' brother Prelate Havok, who Cyclops convinced to join their cause. Back at the Human Communal Village, Apocalypse broke free from the ice but soon discovered that he was slowly dying from the Legacy Virus and thus unworthy. This caused his own Horsemen to turn against him and help the X-Men finally kill him. Unfortunately, Magneto was also infected by the virus and had to be killed by Frost before his mutant magnetic powers went out of control. Angry over the loss of her husband, Frost read the mind of Dr. Corbeau to learn who created the virus: Doctor Nemesis.; The X-Men find Nemesis and confront him. Nemesis revealed that it was his goal to overthrow the ruler of Battleworld, God-Emperor Doom, and prove mutants were the fittest species. He also attempted to convince the X-Men as well as every inhabitant of the domain to join him. The X-Men refused and attacked Nemesis. Nemesis proved to be a difficult foe as he had absorbed the powers of over 300 mutants. As the X-Men fought Nemesis, Frost and Blink went to Dark Beast's lab to find a cure for the Legacy Virus but ended up finding Weapon X and a lobotomized Jean Grey. Sinister had earlier lobotomized Grey from fear of her powers, but he agreed to help Frost transplant a piece of her own brain to repair Jean's. After the surgery, Jean Grey awakened as the Phoenix Force and destroyed Nemesis. She then used his liquefied remains to not only cure the virus but remove the X-Gene from everyone in the domain so that everyone became ordinary humans.

+Equipment: Cerebra, Cyclops' Visor, Magneto's Helmet, Xorn's Helmet
+History:
+After mutants became the dominant species, the X-Men became a large and popular group in Mutopia. When Cassandra Nova attempted to wipe out mutantkind with the X-Men's mutant detector Cerebra, her brother Professor X, the leader of the X-Men and of mutantkind itself, was forced to kill himself to stop her. X-Man Jean Grey was psychically linked with Professor X when this happened, and the psychic backlash knocked Grey into a coma and trapped her in a Phoenix Egg along with the Phoenix Force.; After Professor X's death, Magneto became the new leader of the X-Men and of mutantkind. Though mutants were the dominant species, Magneto was unsatisfied and felt humans hadn't fully accepted mutants' dominance yet. To make humans fully submit, he placed the Phoenix Egg containing Jean Grey and the Phoenix Force in a machine in the basement of the Atom Institute. Using the machine, he began creating Mutant Growth Hormone to increase the powers of the Xavier Institute to increase their powers so he could turn them into own personal team to carry out his goals. Feeling the older members of the X-Men wouldn't accept his goals or methods, he used the machine to suppress their powers and make the doubtful of their abilities.; Magneto also wanted to awaken the Phoenix Force within the Phoenix Egg for his own use by using mutant students Kid Omega and Esme Cuckoo, both powerful psychics, to stimulate the egg with psychic power into hatching. What Magneto didn't know was that Kid Omega was an informant for X-Man Cyclops who was suspicious of Magneto's activities. When Kid Omega informed Cyclops that Magneto had the Phoenix Egg containing Jean Grey and what he was doing with it, Cyclops was forced to act. He gathered Emma Frost and Wolverine from the X-Men and released the mutant villain Xorn from prison to launch a rescue mission.; While the old X-Men fought Magneto's X-Men at the Atom Institute, Kid Omega confronted Magneto about what he was doing. In anger, Magneto killed him with a metal tendril. However, Kid Omega had secretly bonded with the Phoenix Egg, causing it to hatch. Xorn then emerged to destroy egg before it could fully hatch and engaged in battle with Magneto. Their battle ravaged the Atom Institute. When Xorn sensed something else within the Phoenix Egg other han Jean Grey, he decided to leave. The egg then went dormant and fell on top of Magneto, killing him.; X-Man Beast later arrived to investigate a mysterious viral infection that was being drawn to the Atom Institute and commented that Magneto was wrong in thinking that a great power slept within the Phoenix Egg. Suddenly, an army of alternate versions of Beast appeared with one explaining that he was wrong.; The army of Beasts were organized by Sublime, a sentient bacterial lifeform that lived within the Phoenix Egg and used by Magneto for his own ends. To get back at Magneto for using him, Sublime infected Beasts all over Battleworld and mentally commanded them to come to Mutopia to retrieve the Phoenix Egg so he could use its power. The old X-Men and Magneto's X-Men were forced to work together to fight off the Beasts. Sublime was finally stopped when the disembodied mind of Xavier took control of Kid Omega's body and used his psychic power to destroy Sublime. As the threat from Sublime was fading, the Phoenix Egg suddenly hatched, and Jean Grey emerged bonded with the Phoenix Force but also possessed by Cassandra Nova.; Cyclops tried to reach out to Jean, but Nova had Jean kill him on the spot. Nova then used the power of Jean and Phoenix to take control of Sublime's army of Beasts and most of Magneto's X-Men. Professor X managed to protect a few X-Men from Nova's control, but the others lost hope and were quickly defeated. Wolverine then came up with a plan and allowed Professor X take control over his body. When Wolverine's help, Professor X managed to get through to Jean and defeat Nova again while Wolverine and Jean killed themselves, taking Nova with them. The Phoenix's death unleashed a massive explosion that wiped out all of the old X-Men except for Beast, all of the Beasts gathered by Sublime, and many of Magneto's X-Men. Then Xorn emerged from ruins of the Atom Institute while possessed by Jean Grey and was now the new host of the Phoenix Force.

+History:
+The X-Men of Marville are made up of child versions of the X-Men. Their biggest rival is the Avengers. They are always competing against each other to see what group is the best. Competitons include selling food in food trucks or engaging in a dodgeball game. Regardless, the two teams always end up fighting with one another.; Recently, the two teams started fighting over the attention of the new residents of Marville, the twins Zachary and Zoe. They invited the twins to their secret clubhouses to convince them to join their teams. However, more rivals appeared to coax the twins to join their teams: the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Inhumans. In the end, though, the twins decided to join the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.

+History:
+The history of this incarnation of the mutant superhero team the X-Men most likely mirrors that of their Earth-616 counterparts, up until Tony Stark sold his Iron Man-technology, which started a new arms race that rendered non-tech heroes and villains obsolete. The new technology was also used to build stronger Sentinels for hunting down Mutants.; In the years that followed, many X-Men were killed by the new Sentinels. United by Cyclops, the last remaining X-Men went into hiding. When Magneto attacked the United Nations and threatened to kill mankind for what they had done, the X-Men confronted him and the Acolytes. The battle didn't last long however and all X-Men were killed.

+Notes: In 1992, the Fox Network launched an X-Men animated series with the roster of Professor X, Cyclops, Storm, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Beast, Rogue, Gambit and Jubilee, and with Bishop and Cable frequently guest starring. The two-part pilot episode, "Night of the Sentinels" set off what would become a five season series. It was an extraordinary success, becoming one of the most watched animated series in television history and helped widen the X-Men's popularity. The five seasons ended in 1997. It was put back in Fox's line up for several months after the first movie was released.; The X-Men roster throughout the 5 seasons of X-Men: The Animated Series more closely resembles Cyclops' Blue Team from the X-Men's various Earth-616 rosters and it largely remains the same throughout. In X-Men '97 the the team's lineup changes from episode to episode, as reflected in its opening credits.
+Trivia: Morph's role in the first episode of X-Men: The Animated Series was originally meant for Thunderbird. Series developer Eric Lewald felt uneasy about killing off the show's only Native American character right away, so Thunderbird was replaced with Morph.
+History:
+The X-Men are a team of mutants brought together by Professor Charles Xavier, to defend mutantkind from those who hate and fear them, and to use their mutant powers for the benefit of both man and mutant.; Charles Xavier - a.k.a. Professor X - trained his students as X-Men, starting with Jean Grey and Iceman, followed by Cyclops, Beast and Angel, who together formed the founding X-Men team.; Professor X also around this time contacted Sebastion Gilberti, who he believed was a mutant, but Sebastion's mother rejected Xavier's offer to take him in.; Amelia Voght, who was Charles Xavier's partner, left him after he formed the X-Men, as she was uncomfortable with his approach.; The next X-Men recruits were Polaris and Storm. However, after she almost died in a mission, Polaris' then-boyfriend Iceman angrily left the X-Men and Polaris departed with him. At some point after this Angel also left the X-Men.; Over time, new X-Men were recruited, including former Alpha Flight member Wolverine, Morph, former Brotherhood member Rogue and Gambit.; In a mission to raid the Mutant Control Agency headquarters, Morph was knocked unconscious when they threw themself between a Sentinel and Wolverine. Believed to be dead, the team left them behind.; Jubilee was twice rescued by the X-Men after Sentinels tracked her to a mall and her home, before she moved in with them at the Xavier Mansion.; For a time Beast was imprisoned before being pardoned and returning to the team. Morph had been found and brainwashed by Mister Sinister, before being sent to oppose their former teammates. Morph eventually freed themself from Sinister's control and returned with the X-Men before recuperating on Muir Island. When Morph did rejoin the X-Men, they quickly realised they still weren't ready and paused their active duty again.; Bishop time-traveled from the future to help the X-Men several times to disrupt the plans of Nimrod, Trevor Fitzroy and Master Mold and Apocalypse, sometimes joined by his sister Shard. The X-Men also several times encountered another time-traveler from the future called Cable.; After the Phoenix Force possessed Jean Grey, she left the X-Men to seal the power of the M'kraan Crystal and take it away from mortals. In the wake of this, Cyclops also quit the X-Men, before returning to them just as they discovered that Jean was still alive. Despite the best attempts of Professor X and Moira MacTaggert to help her, the Phoenix Force remained inside Jean Grey and she was manipulated by the Inner Circle, becoming their "Black Queen" before then being transformed into the "Dark Phoenix", attacking her teammates. The X-Men then fought the Shi'ar Imperial Guard over her fate - when they lost, Jean Grey sacrificed herself and was resurrected by the Phoenix Force.; When Earth was attacked by the alien Phalanx, abducting mutants including the X-Men, Beast managed to evade them and teamed up with the rogue Phalanx called Warlock. Beast then called Forge - the leader of the US Government-sponsored mutant team X-Factor - for help and this temporary team was then joined unexpectedly by Mister Sinister. They then contacted and were joined by first Amelia Voght and then another long-time foe of the X-Men, Magneto, before rescuing Polaris (now a member of X-Factor) and the X-Men.; Eventually, Professor X was outed as a mutant and shot with a weapon that disrupted his mutant powers by Henry Peter Gyrich on live television, leaving him dying. Morph rejoined the X-Men, impersonating Professor X on television to calm riots that had broken out. The X-Men then allowed Professor X to be taken for medical help by Empress Lilandra and the Shi'ar, leaving people on Earth to believe he had died.; Following this, Morph finally rejoined the X-Men full-time and Bishop joined the X-Men as a team member in the present day. Cyclops, Storm and Bishop helped to rescue a young mutant, Roberto Da Costa, from the Friends of Humanity and Da Costa then started staying at the Xavier Mansion.; In Charles Xavier's last will and testament, he gave his dream, his school, and his X-Men to Magneto, making him the leader of the X-Men.; Storm was soon after depowered by another weapon, intended for Magento, and left the team to recuperate.; It was later revealed that Mister Sinister had at some point replaced Jean Grey with her genetic clone, Madelyne Pryor, who gave birth to Cyclops' son Nathan. When Jean returned, Madelyne turned against the X-Men as the "Goblin Queen" but she later reconciled with them and left the team. Bishop also returned to the future to take the baby Nathan there, after he had been infected with the Techno-Organic Virus.; Sebastion Gilberti, now Bastion, masterminded a massacre of mutants on Genosha by the Wild Sentinels, killing many including Madelyne Pryor and Gambit, and kidnapping Magneto. The X-Men were shaken up after the death of Gambit and apparent death of Magneto, with Cyclops resuming command of the team. At this point, an associate of the team, Nightcrawler, joined the X-Men (he had moved to Genosha after previously encountering Rogue, Gambit and Wolverine in Germany and later being revealed to be the son of Rogue's foster mother Mystique), as did Cable, who was revealed to be the son of Cyclops and Madelyne Pryor.; Professor X returned to the X-Men on Earth after this and Magneto shut down the Earth's electricity, recruiting Rogue and Roberto Da Costa and retreating to Asteroid M.; The X-Men split up into Blue and Gold Teams to take down Magneto and Bastion respectively, with a repowered Storm returning to the team along with another longtime associate of the team, Forge, joining for the first time.; Blue team consisted of Professor X, Cyclops, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Jubilee. Rogue and Roberto Da Costa - now called Sunspot - later joined Blue Team after rejoining the X-Men.; Gold Team consisted of Jean Grey, Storm, Morph, Beast, Forge, and Cable.; The X-Men were later split up across various points in time after extinction was prevented on E-Day.; The team that remained in the present consisted of Forge, Jubilee, Sunspot, and Cable, as they were all on the ground when the Asteroid vanished.; Jubilee, Sunspot, and Cable had all gone AWOL six months after E-Day.; Bishop would later end up returning to the present joining up with Forge.; The team sent to the future consisted of Cyclops, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Storm and Morph.; The team sent to the past consisted of Rogue, Nightcrawler, Beast, Professor X and Magneto.; In the present, Forge and Bishop planned to retrieve the two time-displaced groups of X-Men, with Forge going to the future and Bishop to the past. Meanwhile, Jubilee and Sunspot were recruited by Cable to join his new team, X-Force, together with Angel and Psylocke.; In the future, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Storm and Morph joined Clan Askani, including Mother Askani and a young Nathan Summers. Eventually, Forge arrived and transported the team back to the present.; In the past, Professor X, Magneto, Beast, Rogue and Nightcrawler met a younger En Sabah Nur and joined his Sandstormers. After he arrived, Bishop's attempts to take the X-Men back to the present were initially thwarted by En Sabah Nur. Professor X and Magneto were initially left behind when Bishop sent Beast, Rogue and Nightcrawler to the present. Following his transformation into Apocalypse, En Sabah Nur killed Magneto, before Bishop was able to retrieve Professor X as well.; With all the X-Men back in the present, aside from Magneto, Professor X restored the X-Mansion and welcomed a student body to it, with Storm as headmistress. At the same time, Polaris was fired from X-Factor by Valerie Cooper, and rejoined the X-Men alongside Bishop. Professor X also launched X-Corp, with Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast, Rogue, Nightcrawler, Polaris and Bishop as members.; Another associate of the X-Men, Colossus, had joined the Acolytes led by Exodus after the fall of Genosha, but during a confrontation with the X-Men, Colossus sided with them against the Acolytes. Following this, Colossus returned with the X-Men to take up residence in the X-Mansion.; Secretly, Apocalypse had resurrected Gambit under his control and possessed Gambit's body. This led to a confrontation with the X-Men and X-Force, led by Cable, in which Cable's decision to destroy Gambit in order to put an end to Apocalypse led to Jubilee and Sunspot turning against him and rejoining the X-Men. While Rogue, Professor X and the X-Men sought to find a way to purge Apocalypse from Gambit, before his consciousness was fully replaced, the remaining members of X-Force and X-Factor joined up to take out Apocalypse and Gambit. During that confrontation, Rogue attempted to sacrifice herself to save Gambit by gaining Celestial powers from Eson but Nightcrawler then sacrificed himself to save both Rogue and Gambit, seemingly perishing.

+Base of operations: Xavier Institute, Salem Center, Westchester County, New York.
+History:
+The X-Men were a group of mutants founded by Professor Charles Xavier. Mutants, or Homo Superiors, were born with superhuman abilities due to a sudden leap in evolution which generally manifested themselves at puberty. Mutants were often hated and feared because they were unlike humans. As a response Xavier created his School For Gifted Youngsters to provide a safe environment where mutants could learn to control their powers. The X-men fought for a future where humans and mutants could live together in peace.; After some time, the X-Men seemed to have succeeded in their mission and became media heroes. However, they had also never been really tested in battle. Xavier was worried about the state of the team and about strange mutant presences detected by Cerebro, but his superior, Forge, ignored his premonitions. Eventually, the X-Men were attacked and almost slaughtered by Apocalypse and his troops. Former X-Men, Cyclops and Phoenix, came to help. While Xavier died killing Apocalypse, Phoenix took out his troops, destroying most of Washington in the process. Jean and Scott took over the school, raising a new mutant generation in a now more hostile climate.

+History:
+The X-Men fought the Shi'ar Imperial Guard on the Blue Area of the moon for the life of Jean Grey. Unfortunately the X-Men lost the battle and they were taken to flagship of the Shi'ar fleet where Cyclops was unable to prevent a psychic lobotomy being performed on Jean which destroyed the portion of her brain that her mutant powers resided in.; Later when Lilandra contacted the X-Men to save a planet named Arama from being destroyed by the planet eater, Galactus, Cyclops voted against it due to the actions of Lilandra towards Jean. Jean was shocked by his reaction and demanded that the team do what it could to help the doomed race.; As the X-Men fought Galactus' herald, Terrax the Tamer he struck them all down, almost killing Cyclops, which awoke the Phoenix Force inside Jean, transforming her once again into the Phoenix. She soon joined in the battle and soon stripped Terrax of his portion of the Power Cosmic leaving him only a naked broken man. She then attacked Galactus directly and drove him from the planet, saving the Aramans in the process.; Soon the X-Men returned to their normal lives, however, Jean eventually began to loose control of the Phoenix force once again, which horrified the other X-Men. As they confronted her over her consuming a star with inhabited planets Jean transformed into Dark Phoenix and battled the X-Men and killed each of them one at a time.; After all the X-Men were dead, especially her lover, Cyclops, the Dark Phoenix persona became dominant and eventually destroyed the entire universe.

+History:
+The X-Men were investigating in a floating space-shipp at Chaparanga, when Agent X-13 killed Cyclops, instead of targeting Wolverine (as stated by the protocols and as X-13 did on Earth-616), giving himself enough time to engage the Ghost Box, deploying three Deathlok-Class Units and retreating.; One of those Sentinels, powered by an enslaved Magneto, bend Wolverine's Adamantium legs. Armor, Emma Frost and Storm were projected out of the ship, and fell to their death, except for Armor, left there alone and lost.

+History:
+The X-Men's history is presumably similar to their Earth-616 counterparts' up to the point where Apocalypse attempted to cure Professor X of the Techno-Organic Virus afflicting him. Apocalypse failed, however, and Professor X died. When Apocalypse tried to assert himself as the X-Men's new leader, the X-Men refused and tried to fight him, but most of them were killed by Apocalypse with help from a brainwashed Archangel.; Later, the remaining X-Men joined forces with X-Force and remnants of X-Factor to fight Apocalypse who went to Stryfe's base on the Moon to regain leadership of the Dark Riders. The X-Men fought Apocalypse, but they were defeated. X-Force's leader Cable also fought Apocalypse, but he was defeated and was about to be killed when Stryfe appeared. His demeanor changed after the deaths of Jean Grey and Cyclops, Stryfe fought Apocalypse, eventually leading to both of their deaths. Cable then took up leadership of the X-Men, merging X-Force and the remnants of X-Factor with the team and leading it with a mix of Professor X's ideals and his own.

+Reality: Earth-94041
+History:
+In this reality, the X-Men were affected over time when, rather than noticing the silent and aloof Cyclops, their new member Marvel Girl pursued a relationship with the Angel. This led to growing tension as Cyclops was silently resentful of his teammate's happiness. When Professor X was injured by a bomb during a mission, Cyclops blamed himself because he'd been distracted by Angel and Marvel Girl's playful banter, and so resolved to double his efforts. This resulted in him becoming impatient and derisive towards Iceman and the others, seeing their ability to make time for personal lives as a sign of a lack of dedication. He began to see this in the professor as well when Xavier tested the X-Men's maturity and competence without him by feigning a loss of his powers, angrily accusing him of treating their goals of mutant rights as a game. Cyclops' rigid and inflexibility finally cost him his position as the X-Men's deputy, Professor Xavier naming the Beast as his substitute when he had to take a leave of absence. As a result, Cyclops left the team in a fit of rage, and shortly thereafter was easily persuaded to join Magneto's side as the new second-in-command of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.

It was later revealed those weren't actually the world's true memories of the '60s, as Professor X had erased the real ones.; The X-Men flew in the Blackbird for a mission to infiltrate Asteroid M. However, Wolverine had forgotten to fill the jet's gas tank, and it crash landed near the X-Mansion.; For Cyclops' birthday, the X-Men hired Doctor Strange as a magician, but his act was boo-ed and the mutant team made fun of him. For revenge, Stephen summoned Obnoxio the Clown, who started taunting the X-Men. However, as soon as Strange showed his support for Obnoxio, the Clown got angry at him for interrupting his "show." Obnoxio proceeded to make fun of Strange and finally beat him up with a baseball bat for the X-Men's amusement.; The X-Men later attended the Avengers Tower Halloween Party.

+History:
+When demons rose up from Limbo and invaded New York City, the X-Men were able to secure a part of the city and prevent it from falling into the hands of the demons, who were led by Baroness Darkchild. The area guarded by the X-Men was ruled by the X-Men's leader, Baron Cyclops. Every year, Cyclops sent a force of X-Men led by Darkchild's brother Colossus into the demon-ruled area to rescue Darkchild from the demons, but the force was never successful.; One such excursion turned into a disaster as Colossus and his team were defeated. Nightcrawler was captured by Darkchild, Boom-Boom was badly injured and taken prisoner by Mister Sinister, and Colossus and Domino were captured by the Goblin Queen, the former baroness of the domain and who still ruled a part of the city with a army of goblins.; Wanting to reclaim the domain as her own, Goblin Queen made an alliance with Colossus; in exchange for her help in defeating Darkchild, she would become the domain's baroness again. To aid Colossus, she handed him his sister's old Soulsword. Meanwhile, Darkchild ripped the soul of Nightcrawler's body and transformed him into a demonic monster, the Bamf Dragon. With Nightcrawler under her control, she used his mutant teleportation power to transport herself and demon armies into the X-Men's territory and remove the force field that seperated their territory from hers.; This allowed Darkchild to take control of the X-Men's territory and become the official ruler of the domain. The X-Men were forced to flee into the New York Sewer System where they were discovered by Nightcrawler who used his teleportation power to transport N'astirh and other demons there to kill them. The X-Men were fortunately then saved by Colossus and the remnants of his team as well as the Goblin Queen and her goblins. After the rescue, Mister Sinister approached them. He was accompanied by Boom-Boom and succubus clones he crated from her genetic material. Sinister wanted to form an alliance with the X-Men and Goblin Queen to overthrow Darkchild.; Goblin Queen didn't want to work with Sinister and forced Boom-Boom to kill Sinister. This enraged Sinister's succubi, causing them to attack them. Then Darkchild appeared with her army of demons and attacked the X-Men. The majority of the X-Men were killed; only Colossus, Domino, and Boom-Boom were able to escape. Colossus was forced to confront his sister and fight her with the Soulsword Goblin Queen gave him. With motivation from Domino, Colossus managed to kill Darkchild. Using demonic power his sister earlier infected him with, Colossus teleported himself, Domino, and Boom-Boom out of the domain for good.

+The X-Men's history is presumably similar to their Earth-616 counterparts'. When the super-powerful machine known as the Unmaker awoken, X-Men members Jean Grey and Professor X both sensed it with their telepathy. The pair and Beast later aided other geniuses in coming up with a solution. A team was sent to battle the Unmaker. While this happened, the Unmaker unleashed incredible destruction upon the surface. X-Men members Wolverine and Scout aided in rescuing civilians. The Unmaker was eventually defeated, but Doctor Strange left open a portal that unleashed a EMP that devastated technology all over the globe.; Most of the X-Men survived the chaos and wars that erupted with many X-Men helping to convince those fighting to stop. The X-Men then helped rebuild society over the next seven years, but Beast was mind-controlled by Apocalypse to do his bidding while Cyclops and Wolverine were taken prisoner. Cyclops was later forced to kill Wolverine so Apocalypse could harvest the adamantium from his skeleton. Eventually, Apocalypse was killed, and Beast and Cyclops were freed.

+Reality: Earth-91126
+History:
+The X-Men of Earth-Z were the reality's premier mutant superhero team. Although little has been revealed about the group's specific history, their activities appear to have closely paralleled those of their Earth-616 counterparts prior to the arrival of the zombie plague that devastated Earth-2149 and spread across dimensions.; Among the team's known members were Wolverine and Shadowcat (Kitty Pryde). During a trip to Japan, both became involved in the crisis caused by the incursion of zombified beings from Earth-2149. Wolverine encountered and battled his undead counterpart, ultimately killing the Zombie Wolverine. Shadowcat was also targeted by the creature before being rescued by the zombified but cured Spider-Man of Earth-2149.; Spider-Man explained the nature of the interdimensional contagion and sought the assistance of Earth-Z's heroes in developing a cure. Wolverine provided blood samples that were used in efforts to create immunity to the Hunger virus, while Shadowcat aided the mission because her phasing ability made her largely immune to infection through bites. During the conflict, she used the anti-zombie tactics taught to her by Spider-Man to help eliminate the undead Wolverine.; The X-Men's involvement in the struggle against the zombie plague demonstrated their role as defenders of their reality when the threat of Earth-2149 crossed dimensional boundaries. However, the conflict ultimately claimed Shadowcat's life when she was captured and killed by infected cosmic beings despite the heroes' efforts to stop the spread of the Hunger.

+The X-Men were transported to an alternate reality ruled by Apocalypse. The X-Men arrived in X-Mansion in an alternate universe ruled by Apocalypse. They quickly found a corpse of Cyclops. Before they could understand the events, they were ambushed by a pack of Sentinels, and later, the Blob, who refused to talk to them after suffering defeat.; However, Rogue discovered the X-Men of that universe had made their way to Department H. They travel there only to be attacked by Cable. Weapon Omega, an evil, alternate version of Alpha Flight who serve Apocalypse, also attack the X-Men until they are confronted by Sabretooth and Gambit. The X-Men defeat the pair and travel to the regional Sentinel headquarters in Colorado.; On the way to Colorado, Phoenix attacked the Blackbird, but was defeated by the X-Men before she could destroy the jet. At the facility, the X-Men fought Juggernaut and several Sentinels. The X-Men realized they needed Forge's assistance, but learn that he's in an underwater chamber with Magneto. They storm the base and battled Sentinels until they found and defeated Magneto himself. There, they found Forge, now known as Genesis, who had been forced to create warp gates for Apocalypse. He agreed to help the X-Men.; Their next destination was the Hellfire Club. They battled their way through waves of henchmen, Nightcrawler, and Psylocke. Then, they flew to the Savage Land to destroy a geothermal tap supplying power to Apocalypses Sentinel facility and did so while defeating Sauron and Beast.; After destroying enough warp points, the X-Men made their way to New York City to cut off Apocalypse's communication. There, they defeated Colossus and several other minions from the Acolytes and Hellfire Club. Finally, they headed to Genosha to destroy Apocalypse's cloning bank. They defeated the guard, Silver Samurai, and opened a portal back to their dimension. However, after learning that Apocalypse had been using humans as fuel, the X-Men decide to stay to defeat him before returning home.; On the Golden Gate Bridge, the X-Men battled Archangel and Bishop. Defeating both former X-Men, the team causes the bridge to self-destruct. Believing themselves successful, the X-Men enter the warp to return home only to find themselves on the moon. They battled their way through hordes of enemies, including Pyro, to battle Apocalypse and end his tyranny in that dimension. After defeating Apocalypse they returned to their home reality.

Lord Emp killed Warblade, which turned off his Inhibitor Implants. In his dying breath, Reno used his power to depower his compatriots' inhibitors. They then stormed the House of Ghosts and freed the rest of members. Using their combined abilities, they sent their astral projections back to the time of the kherubim's arrival on Earth and destroyed their scout ship. In the new timeline, the daemonites never infiltrated the planet.

+===The Marvels===; Professor Charles Xavier assembled a team of mutants called the X-Men with the goal of protecting Earth from threats both local and extraterrestrial. One of the team's members was Beast. Binary became an ally to the team while not joining it.; One day, a superhuman named Monica Rambeau arrived in this universe when she crossed a rift in space-time to seal the breach. She was found by Binary, who brought the unconscious hero to the X-Mansion in Westchester, New York. There, she was treated by Beast. Rambeau woke up in her bed and began panicking upon not recognizing her environment. Binary then walked into the room, and Rambeau mistook her for her mother from her own universe, crying that she'd missed her.; Beast then entered and informed Rambeau that she'd been saved by Binary. He explained his theory that Rambeau had been transported to this universe via a tear in space-time, although he claimed that such a feat should've been impossible. Binary told Beast that because Rambeau was clearly disoriented, she would deal with her, allowing Beast to go inform Professor X of the situation.

+X-Men were humans who, through a leap in evolution, were born with superhuman abilities. While most mutants were law-abiding citizens, ordinary humans, fearing that with their extraordinary powers these mutants may one day replace them, showed public prejudice towards them. This prejudice was worsened by the actions of the Brotherhood of Mutants who, led by the evil Magneto, used their powers to disrupt and dominate human society. Under the leadership of Professor X, X-Men constantly battled the evil ways of the Brotherhood.

Storm, using her powers, guided the sister islands to the 2099 Timeline. Admist the chaos, Cyclops was lost in the storm and displaced to Nueva York instead of staying on the Island upon its arrival in the 2099 Timeline.; Upon settling into the 2099 Timeline, the X-Men quickly carved out their place, with the team's lineup changing signficantly. Magik, Psylocke and Namor joined the team, while Jubilee left to find a solution for her son's condition. Gambit & Rogue also left during this time to go on their intergalactic honeymoon.; ===Hellfire Gala===; During the 2025 Hellfire Gala, Krakoa was attacked by Ultron. The X-Men and their allies banded together to stop Ultron from taking over Cerebro, but were unable to prevent him from corrupting Arakko. Together with an avatar of Krakoa and with help from their allies, the X-Men were able to purge the island of Ultron's corruption.; ===Sins of Alchemax===; Believing Cyclops to be lost in the time-stream, the X-Men learned that he had instead been captured by Alchemax, who had been using his optic blasts to power their time-displacement technology. The X-Men were attacked by Alchemax's Corporate Raiders. Deadpool and Devil Dinosaur later recruited them to storm Alchemax to rescue Moon Girl and Cyclops.; As part of the plan, Jean Grey led a group of X-Men to Alchemax Headquarters, freeing Cyclops and using the Phoenix Force to absorb the excess energy Cyclops' powers were generating due to Alchemax's experiments.; ===The Mystery of Thebes===; Upon sensing a spike in energy and the subsequent disappearance of a powerful mutant energy signature, Emma Frost called the X-Men to Thebes in the Collapsing Timeline to investigate Apocalypse's death. They were among a group of heroes who became trapped in Thebes when Apocalypse's Faith Harvesting Engine began to spiral out of control, trapping those inside and cutting them off from the outside worlds.

+The X-Men are a team of mutant who operated out of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters in Westchester County, New York. Once the Hunger began infecting people New York City, they transformed the school into the safe house for mutants and humans alike.; Although the mansion remained a safe zone for sometime, the X-Men were forced to evacuate it when a horde of zombies led by some of their former allies laid siege to the building. Luckily for the team, they were able to retreat to the basement and evacuate many survivors via the X-Jet.; While most of the Zombie Heroes were then able to escape, the X-Men were able to capture the zombified Dark Phoenix and Psylocke and quarantined them in the mansion's infirmary in hopes of finding a cure. Meanwhile, the X-Men realized that during the zombies' siege, the infected had kidnapped Magneto and Mystique while Professor X had disappeared. However, the team was soon able to rescue their fellow X-Men and used Mystique's shapeshifting powers to gain access to Cerebro, hoping to use it to locate the professor. At the same time, the zombified X-Men trapped in the infirmary were able to escape their confinement, forcing their former allies to battle and kill them.; With the X-Mansion still overrun with the infected, the remaining X-Men attempted to escape with cars housed in the mansion's garage. While they were able to flee the mansion, they were soon forced to return when they discovered that the zombies had blocked off nearly all escape routes.; Upon their return, the team discovered that the Zombie Heroes had begun using it as a base and were attempting to construct an interdimensional portal. The X-Men quickly put a stop their construction and soon faced down, and killed, Zombie Juggernaut. The team then prepared for a final showdown with the infected Cyclops and Sabretooth, ultimately killing them as well. Afraid that the technology housed within the mansion could fall yet again into the zombies' decaying hands, the X-Men blew it up before departing to parts unknown, possibly in search of Professor X.

+History:
+On July 1st, 1975 Cerebro unexpectedly registered two previously unknown mutants in Latveria. Wolverine and Storm picked the two - Kitty Pryde and Betsy Braddock - in the X-Men Blackbird and brought them to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters where they were introduced to the rest of the X-Men. The two newcomers were secretive about where they came from, and Charles Xavier and Jean Grey respectfully did not pry their mind telepathically. The two women spent the next two weeks getting to know the X-Men and training with them in the Danger.; On July 18th, Jean and Ororo took Kitty and Betsy on a Girl's Night Out. When they returned, they found that another guest had arrived at the X-Mansion - America Chavez. This prompted everyone to lay out their secret - Kitty and Betsy revealed that they came from the future by following a trail of something missing from their lives - the trail that ended with Jean. America explained to everyone the existence of the Multiverse and the Nexus Beings, revealing that Jean herself was the Nexus of this reality and that she was being targeted by the Doctor Doom from yet another, unknown reality. It was understood that Doom killing Jean is what led to Kitty and Betsy's timeline, in which the X-Men had all died years ago and were nothing but curious memory. Everyone resolved to protect Jean to ensure that did not happen.; In the early morning hours of July 19th, Doom launched his attack on the school. The X-Men and their new allies rallied the defenses but were unaware that they were facing the wrong Doom - the multiversal traveler had allied himself with his counterpart from their timeline, who occupied everyone's attention with large-scale fighting, allowing the other Doom to sneak inside the X-Mansion and stealthily neutralize the key defenders one at a time. At the crucial moment, America was taken away by the Watchers, leaving a gap in the defenses that Doom was able to exploit, capturing Jean and successfully stealing her nexus powers with his Psi-Phon. In her dying moments, Jean cried out for the Phoenix Force, and Doom prepared to steal that as well when Kitty Pryde jumped it and took the Phoenix Force for herself. Facing certain death and believing that her captured friends awaited the same fate, Jean let out a cry that was answered by the Phoenix Force, but Jean died before an offer was extended to her.; Doom prepared to steal the Phoenix Force as well when Kitty Pryde stepped it and took it for herself. The Phoenix Force proved stronger than even the Nexus powers, and Doom chose to retreat, departing this world. Kitty and Betsy spent several days in the X-Mansion's medical bay, but were released after their injuries were sufficiently healed. The X-Men held funeral service for Jean on the school's grounds. America returned with new information from the Watchers and explained that when Doom killed Jean, the timeline was split in two. However, when Doom took Jean's Nexus powers off-world, the timeline was destabilized further, putting everyone on this world in danger. Phoenix-powered Kitty and America went on to pursue Doom across the Multiverse, while Betsy stayed behind with the X-Men.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Alcatraz Island, San Francisco Bay, California
+History:
+===Utopia===; When Norman Osborn took over S.H.I.E.L.D. he hand-picked several former criminals to act as his own team of X-Men.; His X-Men performed a few missions against crime-lords and drugs-producers for some time.; Originally he was sanctioned from interfering with the mutant community because of the M-Day events, but when riots broke out in San Francisco and Sacramento over Proposition X and mutant rights, Osborn was allowed to confront the mutant community and the X-Men.; Osborn dispatched his Avengers to police the streets and maintain the peace, but he had also secretly recruited Emma Frost to lead a team of his own "X-Men". Just as with his Avengers, Osborn had hand-picked each member of his X-Men too. They included Mimic, Omega, Cloak, Dagger, Mystique posing as Professor X, and Daken as Wolverine. Osborn had also planned to recruit the former Alpha Flight member Aurora, but was unsuccessful. Emma agreed to lead the team as the Black Queen on one condition; that Namor the Sub-Mariner be added to the roster.; The team was introduced to the public as the official "X-Men" maintaining high public approval through Osborn's careful media strategy. Conversely, the genuine X-Men were portrayed as a dangerous militia.; During her brief time with Osborn, Emma discovered that Dark Beast had created a machine to torture apprehended mutants and channel their powers into Weapon Omega. Cyclops dispatched X-Force to Osborn's base on Alcatraz Island on a rescue mission and to confront Osborn's X-Men. As the teams prepared to battle, Emma and Namor revealed their roles as a double agents, and helped X-Force defeat Osborn's X-Men. Before departing, Emma offered an invitation to her former team to join the real X-Men. Cloak and Dagger were the only two to accept the offer and accompanied the X-Men to their newly created island base, Utopia.; ===Dark X-Men===; After their failure in San Francisco, Osborn sent his X-Men to investigate a town in which most of its residents fell into a trance and the delusion that they were X-Men. It was there that the Dark X-Men witnessed the resurrection of Nate Grey, the X-Man. Discovering how corrupt the world had become in his absence and learning of Osborn's involvement, Nate rushed to Avengers Tower to confront him.; During the encounter Nate seemingly died, but actually took possession of Osborn's body. Osborn's will proved to be too strong for even Nate to contain and a psychic battle ensued. Mystique, realizing that Nate was possessing Osborn, decided to take her team into Osborn's mind to free him.; Inside Osborn's mind X-Man and the Dark X-Men encountered the Green Goblin, Osborn's evil alter ego. The Goblin managed to use Omega and Mimic's powers to siphon off Nate's psychic energies, weakening him enough to allow Osborn to regain control of his body. After the battle Nate was dragged off to the Omega Machine to be tortured and have his powers fed to Omega.; It remains unclear when this group disbanded. They did not participate in Osborn's Siege of Asgard, except for Daken, who was part of the Dark Avengers, so it is likely they went their separate ways before then.; ==Line-up==; Black Queen - (Emma Frost); Cloak - (Tyrone Johnson); Dagger - (Tandy Bowen); "Beast" / Dark Beast - (Dr. Henry McCoy of Earth-295); Mimic - (Calvin Rankin); "Professor X" / "Jean Grey" / Mystique - (Raven Darkhölme); Namor the Sub-Mariner - (Namor McKenzie); Omega - (Michael Pointer); Wolverine - (Daken Akihiro); Osborn also tried to recruit Aurora (Jeanne-Marie Beaubier) (after having repressed her main personality).

Cyclops and a member of Xavier's X-Men, Jean Grey, immediately felt a connection to each other, and Jean began to sway Cyclops to join their side. Sinister also had the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants find and engage him in battle, forcing Cyclops to choose between him and Jean. Cyclops lingered with Jean for too long, leading Sinister to become mortally wounded during his battle with the Brotherhood. With his dying breath, he told Havok and Cyclops to join Xavier's X-Men, yet to secretly continue to pursue his own vision. Havok and Cyclops complied with his wishes, fighting alongside Xavier's X-Men, yet never forgetting their true purpose.

+History:
+===Formation===; Originally a division of the X-Men sanctioned by Cyclops and tasked with the mission of saving humanity from various extinction level threats, this team's roster included some of the most powerful mutants on the planet.; The teams first major missions included protecting the Dreaming Celestial from Sinister, attempting to save a small town from a lone Phalanx, investigating Tabula Rasa, aiding the Avengers in battling the Dire Wraiths, and capturing S.W.O.R.D.'s escapee, Unit.; The Extinction Team, along with the other Utopian X-Men, came into direct conflict with the Avengers when, fearing the imminent return of the Phoenix Force, Captain America arrived on Utopia demanding to take Hope Summers into custody. Battle broke out ending with Hope's escape and the X-Men's retreat.; While on the run, Cyclops discovered Hope was heading to the Moon to meet the Phoenix head-on. Taking Magik, Colossus, Emma Frost and Namor, he headed to the Moon to aid her. Upon arriving, the Avengers ambushed the Extinction Team, and Iron Man attempted to disperse the Phoenix. Ultimately the attempt resulted in the Phoenix being split into the five present X-Men and the Phoenix Five were created.; ===Phoenix Five===; As the Phoenix Five, Cyclops and the others began to bring peace, prosperity and bounty to the world. Utopia became a sterling example of peace and began flying over the San Francisco Bay. They also began searching out and imprisoning the Avengers. The Extinction Team and Phoenix Five even destroyed Sinister's clone army, Celestial machine and Sinister London in the Moloid Caverns.; Unfortunately, the Phoenix Five soon became corrupted. Magik began torturing her Avengers prisoners with Limbo Demons she summoned, Colossus began threatening loved ones, Emma began policing individuals' thoughts, and Namor declared war between Atlantis and Wakanda. Eventually, Namor lost his portion of the Phoenix when attacked with all the Avengers' firepower, and Magik and Colossus lost theirs when they turned on each other.; With only two Phoenixes left, Cyclops, fearing the Chaos Magic of the Scarlet Witch and Iron Fist/Dragon Lord training of Hope Summers, turned on Emma taking her portion of the Phoenix and becoming Dark Phoenix. Cyclops killed Professor X before trying to end the world. He was only narrowly stopped by Scarlet Witch and Hope Summers dissipating the Phoenix energy and reigniting the mutant population around the world once more.; ===Consequences===; After the murder of Professor X, Cyclops and Emma Frost were imprisoned separately, Psylocke and Storm turned themselves into the custody of the X-Men, Magneto, Namor and Danger went AWOL, and Magik freed Colossus from Cyttorak before separate parting ways.; Initially, Cyclops was content to remain a political prisoner or become a martyr. However, when it became clear that the world's new mutant population needed protection, he ordered his own escape via Magneto, Magik and Danger. Now with Magneto and Magik, Cyclops was again ready to protect and save a world that now hated and feared him.; ===Mutant Rebellion===; Cyclops, Magneto and Magik went about liberating the unjustly imprisoned mutants and offering them aid with their powers and a place in Cyclops' new team. When attempting to liberate Emma Frost, Cyclops and Magneto lost control of their powers. Emma revealed that she was going through a similar problem and told them that the Phoenix had altered their powers. Magik revealed that her powers were changing as well, but for the better, as she had gained the ability to summon energies from Limbo atop of her existing powers.; As Cyclops and Magneto left to find another new mutant, they were confronted by a younger Cyclops and younger versions of the other five original X-Men. While confronting the five young X-Men, the young Jean Grey lost control of her powers and tossed Cyclops away with her telekinesis. This caused Cyclops to lose his visor and he began firing optic blasts wildly, leading the young X-Men to believe that he was attacking them. Magneto disposed of them and ordered Magik to transport him and Cyclops back to headquarters. Cyclops later freed Emma and recruited more young mutants to his team.; ===Darkchilde and S.H.I.E.L.D.===; Later, the team was accidentally transported to Limbo by Magik due to her broken powers. After facing Dormammu, the team was able to escape but Goldballs left due to not being able to handle being an X-Man. After this, the team added David Bond to their ranks and gave him the code-name Hijack. Soon after, Fabio rejoined the team.; ===Battle of the Atom===; Later on, his team of X-Men encountered a team of X-Men from the future who told them they were here to prevent a disaster from happening because of the past X-Men being in the present time. After some investigating and meeting another team calling themselves the X-Men, it was revealed that the first former team were actually the future Brotherhood. During this time, the Stepford Cuckoos and the past Angel joined Cyclops's team. In the end, Scott's team and Wolverine's team defeated the future Brotherhood and the real future X-Men went back to their own time. Also, Kitty, Lockheed and the rest of the past X-Men left the Jean Grey School to join Scott's team because of Logan's actions and mistrust. After a mission Magneto left the team to do things on his own terms. After this, Hijack was kicked off the team after almost putting them in danger. After trying to adjust to a normal life again, he was interrogated by Maria Hill of SHIELD for the location of Cyclops's team. The team did rescue him and he, along with Dazzler rejoined them.; ===AXIS===; After Scarlet Witch and Dr. Doom cast an inversion spell during a fight against the Red Onslaught, the moral compass of the heroes and villains present during the battle were inverted. As a consequence of the inversion, both X-Men teams reunited in order to wage war against humanity.; The inverted X-Men planned on using a gene bomb to kill everyone on the Earth who wasn't a mutant. The Astonishing Avengers tried to stop them, and even though they were defeated in combat, managed to prevent the bomb from fulfilling its purpose. The Axis, the group of inverted Avengers, arrived to New York to kill the inverted X-Men. During the fight, a reinversion spell was cast by Doctor Doom and the Scarlet Witch, with the help of the inverted Red Skull, turning almost everybody back to normal. After the event, Cyclops' X-Men returned to Alberta, Canada.; ===The Utopians===; The X-Men were reached out by S.H.I.E.L.D. to investigate Utopia after a recon team went missing. The X-Men teleported to the island, and initially engaged the Utopians. After talking it out and discovering the Utopians wanted nothing but to be safe and undisturbed, the X-Men offered them a place at the New Charles Xavier School, which they gladly accepted.; ===The Last Will and Testament of Charles Xavier===; After the discovery of the Last Will and Testament of Charles Xavier, it was revealed Charles had left all of his possessions to Scott. Racked by guilt, Scott left all of those possessions to the Jean Grey School, decided to disband his group of X-Men, suggesting them to move to the Jean Grey School, and planned to turn himself in for the death of Charles.

+Weapons: Each teammates' arsenal
+Transportation: Kurt Waggoner's teleportation Formerly; Sage's S.W.O.R.D. Ship Formerly; Charles Xavier's teleportation Formerly; HMS Albion Formerly
+Notes: This team of X-Men has been tasked with defending the Multiverse from ten evil versions of Charles Xavier. Thus far they've faced:; 1. "Cthulhu Floating Brain" Xavier; 2. "Steampunk Godworld" Xavier; 3. "Cowboy" Xavier ("New York Charlie" Charles Xavier); 4. "Dinosaur" Xavier; 5. Brood-controlled Acanti Skywhale Xavier; 6. Professor X (Charles Xavier); 7. Xavier Demon/Unicorn Xavier; 8. Lord Xavier, the Witch King of Gha-No-Shah; 9. Xavier the "Nazi"/Fascist Leader.; 10. Charles Xavier Head in a Bottle.; Part of this team also defeated Savior. However, although he was an evil Xavier threatening the Multiverse, he was not one of the ten evil Xaviers later identified.; This team is similar to the reality hopping Exiles.
+Trivia: Scott Summers and Dazzler are the only two characters to have been represented by two counterparts, and Dazzler the only one at the same time during X-Treme X-Men Vol 2; without counting the intrusion of Lord Xavier into the Disembodied Xavier Head.
+History:
+===Origin===; When Savior kidnapped Cyclops from Earth-616 to power this planet saving device, he began the end of his reign. Cyclops helped Governor-General Howlett, Kurt Waggoner, Emmeline Frost-Summers, and Shadow to escaped from the machinations of the Savior.; After Cyclops returned to his own reality, Kurt Waggoner and the several hundred disembodied Xavier heads used their power to search the Multiverse for an uninhabited, habitable Earth. Once found, they teleported the entire population of Earth-12245 there.; After the jump, all of the other Xavier's exploded, but one Xavier remained and was then awaken to other ten evil Xavier's in the Multiverse, who were using their powers to rip apart reality. Kurt, Emma, and Howlett were pulled into another dimension by one of those either evil Xaviers. However, at the same time on Earth-616, Cyclops, Dazzler and the X-Club used a Ghost Box to open a portal to them, but Dazzler was pulled in.; To save the all reality from these ten evil Xaviers, the remaining Disembodied Xavier Head formed his own X-Men of these heroes from across the Multiverse.; ===Ten Evil Xaviers===; Despite some apprehension, mistrust and contention, the team successfully stopped a evil Xavier in Earth-20329, a "Steampunk Godworld" reality, and an evil "Cowboy" Xavier in Earth-51212, a "Steampunk Western" reality.; However, when Kurt was lost in the Multiverse during a jump, Dazzler and Howlett refused to go on until he was rescued. Xavier sent them to Earth-24135, Kurt's reality, but felt he needed to continue to hunt down evil Xaviers. To that end, Xavier recruited a new team of inter-dimensional soldiers he called his X-Force.; When the X-Men rejoined Xavier, contention grew between them and X-Force. The teams briefly worked together until the death of Captain Blaire. Corporal Scott Summers and Hercules then joined the X-Men. Unfortunately, during the battle that took Captain Blaire's life, Lord Xavier, the Witch King was able to magically/psychically hide himself in the mind of Xavier Head.; After lying to the X-Men that their mission was over, Lord Xavier resurrected Nazi Xavier. Dazzler and X-Men realized the truth too late, and couldn't stop the three Xaviers from teleporting away.; ===X-Termination===; The team covertly followed the Xaviers to an ancient Egyptian-style world where the Xaviers were sacrificing civilians to an interdimensional rift to gain power. The X-Men were able to rescue their Xavier Head and narrowly defeated Lord Xavier and Nazi Xavier.; Unfortunately, the X-Men did not act quickly enough to save that world, and were forced to make an interdimensional jump, leaving that reality to die. The X-Men next arrived at the site of another interdimensional rift. This rift was caused by AOA Nightcrawler and Dark Beast using the Dreaming Celestial's energies to create a portal between Earth-616 and New Apocalypse. When they arrived they were met by the 616 X-Men and the X-Terminated. Xavier tried to close the rift, but was murdered by three god-like figures.; The X-Men aided in trapping the Exterminators in Earth-295 and saving Earth-616 and the Multiverse, but Hercules and Kurt Waggoner died in the process. After the battle, the team separated: Howlett and Summers decide to travel to Greece in hopes of freeing Hercules from the Underworld, while Dazzler decided to take a sabbatical, and soon joined the S.H.I.E.L.D. task-force to monitor Cyclops' X-Men.

+First appearance: All-New X-Men Vol 1 1
+Created by: Brian Michael Bendis; Stuart Immonen
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: The original X-Men brought from the past by Beast to solve the problem of his own era
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, Salem Center, North Salem, Westchester County, New York, USA; Formerly:; X-Mansion, Hightown, Madripoor; Jean Grey School For Higher Learning, Salem Center, Westchester County, New York, USA; New Charles Xavier School for Mutants, near Roanoke, Alberta, Canada
+Affiliation: Formerly:; X-Men (Jean Grey School student body); X-Men (New Charles Xavier School student body)
+Notes: X-Men: Blue Vol 1 writer Cullen Bunn's original pitch for the X-Men's send-off from the present was to have them get caught in the time-space stream and become a new team of Exiles.; When the time-displaced younger selves went back to their time, the present-day selves gained all their memories. For example, Cyclops remembered his time-displaced self's time in the Champions.
+History:
+Distraught with how things turned out for the X-Men in the present and believing himself to be at death's door due to another mutation, Beast traveled to the past to convince the past incarnations of the five original X-Men, including himself, into going to the future with him in order to fix it. Beast planned young Cyclops to meet his older self and make him realize what he had become after killing their mentor, Charles Xavier. However, as soon as they arrived in the present, Beast got worse and had to be taken for treatment. While he recovered, the time-displaced X-Men confronted Cyclops to no avail, as he ended up fleeing. The young Beast later helped his future counterpart survive his new mutation.; Under the leadership of Kitty Pryde, the team decided to stay and resolve the problems of this time before returning to their own, despite the protests of the young Angel. After being lied to, having his mind partially wiped by Jean, and not being allowed to make decisions of his own, Angel had enough and joined the present day Cyclops' X-Men.; ===Time at the New Charles Xavier School===; When Kitty decided to quit Wolverine's school for not trusting his X-Men faction anymore, due to their actions during their battle against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants from the future, the time-displaced X-Men decided to go with her to Cyclops' school. The team subsequently rescued X-23 from a group of Purifiers that were attempting to capture her after her escape from Murderworld, prompting the team to take Laura in as a new member after the Purifiers had been defeated.; Later, the past X-Men had to join forces with the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Starjammers to rescue Jean Grey from the Shi'ar Empire, which wanted her to pay for the crimes her future self committed as the Phoenix Force's host. During this encounter, Jean manifested a new power, which combined her telepathy and telekinesis in ways she had never seen before, and Cyclops learned that his father was alive, prompting him to join the Starjammers.; Following a rematch with the future Brotherhood, the team was accidentally transferred into another universe by a new mutant's erratic powers, culminating in a team-up with that world's Spider-Man and X-Men to save Beast from Doctor Doom. They later retrieved the mutant and returned to their world. Cyclops rejoined the X-Men's ranks when they returned to Earth after investigating the Black Vortex alongside the Guardians.; ===Road Trip===; Following the rise of anti-mutant hysteria and the beginning of the M-Pox crisis, the young X-Men decided to go separate ways and lay low for a while. Beast eventually reunited the team (with the exception of Jean Grey) and, joined by Evan Sabahnur and Idie Okonkwo, decided to go on a road trip across the United States, assisting crisis all over the world whenever it was needed, with the help of a teleporting Bamf named Pickles.; Frustrated by his inability to find a way to return home with his friends, Beast decided to experiment with magic. These experiments eventually led him to find a way to travel through time using the Third Eye of Horus, a gift from Doctor Strange. However, after seeing what he thought to be the original X-Men acting in the past, Hank deduced that wasn't their timeline of origin and reunited his teammates to show them his unfortunate discovery. The young X-Men then went back to the present and proceeded to look forward to their future, which would no longer be tied to their concurrent older selves.; ===Disciples of Magneto===; Faced with their new freedom from the "need" to return to the past, the X-Men were soon contacted by Magneto, who wanted to use Xavier's original students to set an example for the world since he couldn't operate in the open due to his reputation. Even though the X-Men remained cautious of Magneto's ulterior motives, they agreed to work under his coordination, and moved their base of operations to an X-Mansion in Madripoor. In secret, Magneto worked on a time platform with the intention to help the X-Men return to their original time.; ====Cross Time Capers====; After a handful of adventures during which they recruited two stranded travelers from other realities, Jimmy Hudson and Bloodstorm, the young X-Men saw themselves directed by Magneto to use his time platform to travel through time after the timestream suddenly began collapsing. The time platform took the X-Men through different time periods of an altered timeline in which the original five X-Men seemingly took over the world, prompting them to make new allies along the way.; Upon reaching their original era, the X-Men discovered the group of X-Men they had seen when they checked up on their past earlier were actually impersonators: the returned Future Brotherhood, who had hopped back in time to fill the void left by the young X-Men and in the process held Professor X captive. After defeating the Brotherhood with their newfound allies and forcing them to retreat, the young X-Men learned the Professor X from their time had managed to send a psychic suggestion through time to Magneto in the present, hence the reason why Magneto instructed them to use his time platform. Despite their desire to stay in the past, the young X-Men returned to the present, since they would need to return to the exact moment they had left in order to fully repair the damage caused by the Brotherhood to the timeline.; ====Poison Invasion & Mothervine Crisis====; Following the capture of Corsair at the hands of the space pirate Killer Thrill, Cyclops rallied most of his teammates to rescue him. Since Killer Thrill was in possession of a symbiote, they first sought Venom's help. During their pursuit, the X-Men temporarily bonded to symbiotes themselves. Unfortunately they stumbled upon the predatory Poisons, and Jean was seemingly assimilated by their Hive. After rescuing Corsair, Venom and the X-Men rushed back to Earth to warn about the Poisons' intention to invade the planet.; During the X-Men's space adventure, an alliance formed by Emma Frost, Havok, Miss Sinister, and Bastion mobilized to release the Mothervine virus, a catalyst for artificial mutations as well as secondary and tertiary mutations, across the world. Due to the absence of most of the young X-Men, Magneto's allies banded together to fill their void, including Polaris and Xorn. The patchwork auxiliary line-up confronted Havok's cabal with Emma Frost's help, who turned against her allies, while Magneto neutralized Mothervine with Elixir's help.; Venom and the X-Men returned to Earth right after the Hive had arrived. As part of their invasion plan, the Hive started infecting many superhumans with symbiotes in order to assimilate them afterwards. One of the heroes assimilated by the Poisons was Jimmy Hudson. When the heroes confronted the Poison Queen, Jean resurfaced since her psyche had survived the assimilation due to her powers. She killed the Poison Queen, causing a chain reaction that killed most of her subjects. One of the surviving Poisons was Jimmy, whose original psyche survived the assimilation process, and struggled against the Poison's consciousness. The young X-Men tracked down Jimmy and tried to bring him back, but eventually left him alone so that he could figure out his duality between mutant and alien.; The young X-Men quickly found out that Magneto had been pushed to his limits during the Mothervine crisis, and he vowed to once again advance his mutant agenda by any means necessary. Erik additionally blamed his former pupils for abandoning him in a moment of need, arguing they shouldn't have gone away since he had warned them their enemies were close to striking. The X-Men intercepted Magneto in Paris and stopped him from killing Emma Frost, he only backed down because he knew the X-Men wouldn't give up either, and refused to risk their lives.; ===Extermination===; Eventually, the displaced team was faced with the potential dark consequences of their time in the present when the mutant-hunter Ahab attacked, using various brainwashed mutants as his Hounds with the aid of a pair of telepathic mutant twins, Maxime and Manon, who hailed from a dark future that began when one of the original five was killed. The other X-Men initially tried to protect the five, but were caught off-guard by the actions of a younger version of Cable, who killed his own future self in the belief that he had forgotten his purpose and went so far as to amputate Mimic's Angel-copied wings so that he could transplant them on to the time-displaced Angel to restore his appearance.; After a close call where Mimic sacrificed himself to save Cyclops from Ahab's attack, the original five accepted the need to return to their time, but first made a detour to the point when Ahab's psychic twins were training at the school before Ahab captured them. The twins were thus able to not only teach Jean how to undo the brainwashing they would inflict on Ahab's Hounds, but also taught Jean how she could put a "timer" on any memories she suppressed. As a result, once the team returned to the past just after Beast had departed with their past selves, Jean was able to wipe the memories of their time in the future, timing them to reappear in their present selves just after the younger team departed, thus restoring Jean's memories of how to undo the twins' brainwashing on the Hounds.

+Reality: Earth-55133
+Base of operations: Atom Institute, Mutopia, Battleworld
+Equipment: Magneto's Helmet, Phoenix Egg, Mutant Growth Hormone
+History:
+Magneto's team made up the student body of the Xavier Institute. After Professor X died fighting his sister Cassandra Nova, Magneto also became the new leader for Mutantkind as well. Despite Mutantkind being the dominant species of Mutopia, Magneto wasn't satisfied and wanted humankind to truly embrace Mutantkind's superior status.; To carry out that goal, he took the Phoenix Egg, which contained Jean Grey and the Phoenix Force, into a machine in the basement of the Atom Institute. With the machine, he created Mutant Growth Hormone to strengthen his team and to inhibit the older X-Men members to fill with them as he believed that they would try to halt his plans. Magneto also hoped to use the powerful mutant psionics Kid Omega and Esme Cuckoo to hatch the Phoenix Egg and awaken the Phoenix Force so he could use its power to carry out his goals.; However, Kid Omega was an informant for Cyclops who was suspicious of Magneto's activities. Kid Omega informed Cyclops of what Magneto was doing with the Phoenix Egg that contained Jean. Cyclops decided to rescue Jean and end Magneto's activities by assembling Emma Frost and James Howlett and freeing the mutant villain Xorn from prison.; Cyclops and his X-Men launched an attack on the Atom Institute and fight against Magneto's X-Men. While this happened, Magneto killed Kid Omega when he confronts him about his activities and then engaged in a fight with Xorn, devastating the Atom Institute in the process. Before dying, Kid Omega had bonded with the Phoenix Egg, causing it to hatch. Xorn sensed that something was inside the egg besides Jean Grey and decided to leave. The egg then went dormant and fell on top of Magneto, killing him.; When an army of Beasts from all over Battleworld was assembled by the sentient bacterial lifeform Sublime so he could seize control of the Phoenix Force, Magneto's X-Men is forced to work with the old X-Men to fight the army off. The Stepford Cuckoos joined with Emma Frost in order to combine their psionic powers to shut down the minds of the Beasts one at a time. However, Sublime took control of Mutopia's Beast and forced him to kill Esme Cuckoo to break the psionic link between Cuckoos and Frost.; Sublime was finally defeated when the disembodied mind of Professor X took control of Kid Omega's corpse and used his powers to destroy Sublime. Then Phoenix Egg hatched and Jean Grey emerged possessed by Cassandra Nova and bonded with the Phoenix Force.; Nova proceeded to take control of most of Magneto's X-Men and the army of Beasts Sublime assembled and attack the remaining X-Men. Nova was defeated when Professor X took control of Wolverine's mind and managed to get through to Jean and defeat Nova as Wolverine and Jean kill themselves. The Phoenix's death unleashed an explosion that wiped out everyone and everything within range, including the old X-Men, Sublime's army of Beasts, and Magneto followers Basilisk, Glob Herman, No-Girl, and the remaining Stepford Cuckoos.

+Species / origin: A group of mutants formed by Magneto to protect mutant kind from extinction.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly War Room X, Savage Land, Antarctica
+Transportation: Blackbird
+Notes: While part of Storm's X-Men, Logan considered Magneto's X-Men to be akin to an X-Force strike team.
+History:
+===Someday===; In the wake of the M-Pox crisis, in which mutants succumbed to the effects of the Inhuman Terrigen Mists, the master of magnetism Magneto became despondent. With the rage that had always driven him failing him, Magneto roamed the wilderness, desperately searching for a reason to fight. He found that reason when the winged Archangel suddenly fell from the sky. His last words before losing consciousness concerned ensuring the survival of mutants. Magneto, being reminded of his purpose, found reason to fight again, and vowed to find others to stand at their side. He gathered a team of X-Men willing to do whatever necessary to ensure the survival of the mutant species: the perfect M, the savage Sabretooth, and the stoic Psylocke. In addition to his public team, Fantomex and Mystique were also Magneto's operatives, but worked in the shadows.; Magneto and his X-Men set sights to Someday Enterprises, a company that put mutants who were tired of living in a world that hated and feared them into suspended animation, waiting to be awakened in better times. Magneto suspected the company of being up to no good, and began attacking their transports, denying the mutants who wanted to escape reality their wish. The team was quickly side-tracked however by a conflict with the Dark Riders, who had begun tracking down and killing mutant healers. The Riders believed that the extinction of mutants due to the Terrigen Mists was part of the natural order, and that mutants with the power to heal the ill were hindering natural selection.; The X-Men failed to protect Elixir, who was killed by the Riders, but succeeded in securing Triage, and set a trap for the Riders. The Riders were left dead or dying on Genosha, which Magneto proceeded to detonate, sinking the island into the sea and killing the remaining Riders.; Becuase of the nature of his powers, Elixir didn't remain dead for a long time, and was eventually found resurrected by Magneto's X-Men in the ruins of Genosha, but having become emotionally unstable. Elixir then accepted to be taken to Xorn's retreat in Tibet.; ===Apocalypse Wars===; Shortly after the X-Men moved to their new base, the War Room X in the Savage Land, Archangel, who had mysteriously become a mindless drone when Magneto found him, alerted Pyslocke about an incoming catastrophe that would befall the town of Green Ridge. While investigating Green Ridge, Magneto and Psylocke discovered the Clan Akkaba had the real Warren Worthington in their possession, and were periodically harvesting his wings to create an army of mindless drones named Death-Flight, as it turned out, the Archangel member of Magneto's X-Men was one of these clones who had escaped. With the help of Mystique and Fantomex, Magneto and Psylocke broke free from Genocide's grasp after having been captured. When Psylock summoned the Archangel on her team to their aid, she unwittingly triggered the Death-Flight. While the X-Men were fending off the Death-Flight, Warren willingly merged with the last remaining Archangel clone, having realized that his Archangel persona needed an anchor of humanity, and both became one once again.; Concurrently, M and Sabretooth heeded a call for help from Callisto, who informed them the Morlocks were dying again of a mysterious illness different from the M-Pox. M discovered the ill Morlocks were actually under the influence of her brother Emplate. After tracking down Emplate, M tried to get him to stop endangering the Morlocks, initially proposing to exchange their freedom for hers. Before fading away, Emplate managed to possess M, forcing her to live with his curse.; ===Hellfire Club===; As part of his plan to ensure mutantkind's survival, Magneto joined forces with the Hellfire Club, becoming their White King once again. Their alliance was eventually revealed to Psylocke by M after noticing her disgruntlement over Erik keeping his involvement with Fantomex and Mystique from her. Together, the Hellfire and the X-Men continued investigating Someday Enterprises, and discovered some of the company's resources had been taken over by Exodus, including a group of the mutant Sleepers, whom Exodus controlled telepathically. Magneto tracked down Exodus and defeated him, stopping him from using the Sleepers to attack an anti-mutant rally as part of his plan to stoke the fires of the growing anti-mutant hysteria. The Sleepers, now freed from Exodus, were taken to Xorn.; Following Exodus' defeat, Psylocke broke her partnership with Magneto, having become fed up with Erik's constant schemings and secret alliances. She vowed to kill Magneto if he ever did something she believed put at risk the lives of mutants, which included weaponizing the Sleepers under his protection.; ===Disbandment===; Magneto's enterprise eventually fell apart. While keeping an eye on Psylocke, Mystique had her personality stabilized telepathically, dampening her and prompting her to leave Magneto's side. In the middle of a conflict between X-Men and Inhumans, Fantomex implanted himself in The World and Sabretooth ran away with M to help keep her condition a secret and find a way to cure her from Emplate's possession. After accidentally killing two Sleepers during a scuffle against Inhumans, Xorn exiled himself to the Moon, with Archangel taking his place as the Sleepers' shepherd.; Following Magneto's involvement in the war against the Inhumans, which included working in secret with Emma Frost, Psylocke returned to War Room X to fulfill her word. Following an arduous battle, she managed to fatally injury Erik and left him for dead. Before succumbing to his injuries, Magneto was found by Elixir and Exodus.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly X-Lantis, Atlantis
+Weapons: Honey Badger and Wolverine's claws, Gambit's bo staff and playing cards
+Transportation: Nightcrawler's teleportation and Sentinel-X
+History:
+When she returned from the dead, Jean Grey decided to propose the United Nations to recognize mutants as a nation and bring them into the UN to work together with humans towards a more peaceful future. When she confided this idea with Nightcrawler, he suggested forming a team to offer her support and protection. After Jean gave a speech at the UN, Cassandra Nova incriminated her with the murder of the United Kingdom's ambassador. Nightcrawler teleported Jean to Wakanda for safety together with Wolverine and Honey Badger, who spectacted the speech.; Jean's attention was soon drawn to help the Indian mutant Trinary. After Jean and her allies rescued her, they were attacked on their return to Wakanda by Storm, who was under the influence of both Cassandra Nova and one of her Sentinites. When Storm tried to kill herself due to the Sentinite's instructions, Wakandan mutant Gentle stepped in and saved her. After extracting the Sentinite from Storm and learning that an enemy was after her, Jean opted to move her base of operations underwater, where Namor had previously offered her asylum. Additionally, Trinary and the Wakanans designed the team special suits that could act as a firewall in case of a Sentinite infection. Jean declared the formation of the team as the beginning of her dream of a mutant nation.; After helping a group of Polish mutants find asylum in X-Lantis, Jean sent part of her team to retrieve audio files from the deceased ambassador to clear her name. Concurrently, Jean used Searebro to sweep the world to find the culprit, and managed to learn that Cassandra Nova was behind the scheme. Nova infected Teen Abomination with a Sentinite and sent him after Atlantis. After the X-Men stopped Teen Abomination's rampage and obtained the recordings from the deployed members, these were broadcast worldwide, clearing Jean's name and doubling down on her message of tolerance.; When Trinary attempted to use the Sentinite extracted from Storm to locate its source, she learned that Cassandra Nova intended to release swarms of Sentinites on every major city. Trinary's teammates joined forces with her to sustain the strain of using her powers on such scale, and she managed to destroy all traces of the microscopic robots. In retaliation, Cassandra Nova took control of Prestige, Jean's daughter in an alternate timeline, to have them face-off, but Jean managed to rescue her.; Using her powers, Cassandra took hostage several commercial planes and hijacked the Helicarrier of the South Korean National Intelligence Service to turn it into her personal army. She intended to force Jean to go to war, but before going to Genosha, Jean enlisted Tony Stark's help to create a supply of countless replicas of Magneto's Helmet to force into the people under Nova's sway to set them free. Due to this turn of events, Nova caused one of the nuclear reactors aboard the Hellicarier to explode, with the intention to bring down the aircraft on the island. With the help of the Avengers, the X-Men managed to detonate the Helicarrier before it reached the ground. Nova was ultimately defeated when Jean installed a reprogrammed Sentinite into her mind to make her feel empathy for the first time in her life. Cassandra was instantly filled with regret for her actions, and Jean promised to help her atone. With the crisis averted, Jean addressed the United Nations again to share her dream of a unity between mutants and humans.

+The X-Men were a group of mutants brought together by Mother Akkaba and Apocalypse to realize their goals of mutant dominance.; The X-Men took part in mutantkind's wars, first against humanity and then against the machines. After a century of war, mutantkind was near extinction. Most mutants had been evacuated to Shi'ar space, leaving a handful of X-Men as the last remaining mutants in the solar system.; Led by Apocalypse, the X-Men embarked on a mission to learn the true origins of Nimrod. The X-Men managed to retrieve an index key containing the location of the information they sought, though at the cost of two of their members; Cylobel and Percival.; With the key decoded, the X-Men embarked on their final mission; retrieving the information they needed. They chose a two-pronged attack, with Xorn, Rasputin, North and Cardinal attacking the Church of Ascendency as a distraction, while Apocalypse led Wolverine and Krakoa into the machine database to retrieve the information they needed.; North and Cardinal were killed, and Rasputin and Xorn sacrificed themselves, unleashing the singularity within Xorn's head and destroying the machines that had intercepted them. Meanwhile, Nimrod engaged Apocalypse's team. Apocalypse sent Wolverine ahead with the information they had gathered, as he stayed behind to hold Nimrod back, seemingly perishing in battle.; Their purpose served, Wolverine awoke Mother Akkaba and implanted her with the knowledge they had retrieved, per Apocalypse's instructions. He proceeded to kill her, allowing her to reincarnate with the knowledge of exactly when and how Nimrod emerges.

A technological utopia, Faraway was secluded and isolated from the outside world of man, but it was not to last. 19 years after Faraway was established, it was attacked by Sentinels, which put Moira into coma. Within a year, Faraway fell before Sentinels, who massacred its inhabitants.

The X-Men and several other mutants went after Mister Sinister after he assassinated several members of the Quiet Council of Krakoa.; However, Sinister was successful in corrupting several key members of the Quiet Council. Mister Sinister and his accomplices on the council then began to slowly spread their corruption to the rest of Krakoan society, with plans to eventually conquer the world.; One of their first moves was to extend the Resurrection Protocols to humanity by offering artificial X-Gene implants. They then used an orbital laser to lobotomize Krakoa and framing Orchis for the attack. Since this disrupted the Resurrection Protocols, the world united against Orchis, X-Men were joined by the Avengers and Fantastic Four in destroying Sol's Hammer and Nimrod, scattering Orchis to the wind.; In the wake of this victory, the Avengers were convinced to enter the Resurrection Protocols themselves, compromising its human primaries. The Avengers were pushed into increasingly extreme, antisocial and malevolent actions, which climaxed in war when Captain America seized control of the United States Government after murdering the sitting president. The Avengers were defeated by the X-Men, who usurped their place as Earth's mightiest heroes.

+Weapons: }
+History:
+Having ascended as the ruler of the demonic realm of Limbo, Madelyne Pryor, a.k.a. the Goblin Queen, used her influence to get revenge at the X-Men for her traumatic existence as a clone of Jean Grey. However, she was offered compassion by her apparent enemies instead, and ultimately chose to tame Limbo, becoming an ally of mutantkind. With her lover Havok at their side, she established the Limbo Embassy in New York City to deal with aspects regarding the interaction between Earth and Limbo. The Limbo Embassy gained a new purpose following Orchis' attack on mutantkind, as fugitive mutants found asylum under Pryor's protection. Using the Mercy Crown, Pryor searched for runaway mutants across the globe in order to rescue them.; In an attempt to replace the missing X-Men, Pryor assembled a new group of X-Men formed by macabre mutants, including Havok, the bizarre and perverted Zero, the wicked and vampiric Emplate, who owed a dept to the evil demon-lord Azazel. They crossed paths with former X-Men Gambit, Archangel, and Maggott who, at the time, attempted to rescue the young shapeshifter Carmen Cruz from Orchis. The two groups of mutants joined forces to be successful, but Havok was mortally wounded by the robot Albert and Archangel was captured by Orchis. At the Limbo Embassy, Pryor revived Havok as a zombie, while Cruz joined the group as Feint. Recovered, Pryor tasked her X-Men with rescuing more mutants at peril.; At the seas surrounding Madripoor, part of the X-Men found a band of Morlocks sailing under Callisto's leadership. Unfortunately, they were attacked by the lethal Archangel, who had succumbed to Orchis' mental control. After some Morlocks perished in battle, Gambit assassinated Archangel to stop the massacre. Maggott chose to stay with the Morlocks, believing Pryor's X-Men to be a tainted group of agents. Simultaneously, in Mexico, the rest of the team met Creep, who formed a fungal fortress to protect mutants from Orchis. When trying to contact Creep, the X-Men struggled to defend themselves against the vile Bamf Dragon. Ultimately, Feint was able to go through Creep's hallucinogenic defenses and reached out to her. Pryor decided to leave Creep in peace after conversing with her.; Back to the Limbo Embassy, the X-Men welcomed another refugee, the teleporter Abyss. However, he was revealed to be a trap sent by Orchis, who trapped Pryor and the X-Men in the Brimstone Dimension. The master who controlled Archangel and the Bamf Dragon was revealed to be a disrupted version of Madelyne Pryor from another dimension who had been retrieved by Orchis' agents Krol and Vallens. The residents of the Limbo Embassy were murdered by Orchis, but Azazel and Emplate resisted the attack, for they had not been trapped by Abyss. Azazel killed Abyss, his own son, to liberate Pryor and the other X-Men. The X-Men directed their rage against Pryor's doppelgänger, who wished to use the Mercy Crown to punish mutants all over the world. In the ensuing battle, Zero, who symbiotically merged with the remains of Albert, destroyed Agent Krol. Azazel killed Agent Vallens, but was cannibalized by the Bamf Dragon afterwards, which freed Emplate from his servitude. In the end, Feint encouraged Pryor to stand up against and execute her maleficent copy. Believing herself not to be a leader, the Goblin Queen disbanded her assembly of perverted X-Men.

+The X-Men's history is presumably similar to their Prime Marvel Universe. In this timeline, Orchis was successful in its mission to destroy mutantkind, leaving only a few scattered survivors. In time, Orchis was wholly usurped by the machines, who continued to wage war against the X-Men while using their advanced technology to summon a dominion that could absorb them into its nigh omnipotent machine intellect.; Knowing that the only hope of averting this lay in reseting their own timeline, the X-Men sought to find Mr. Sinister, knowing that his Moira Enigne would allow them to reset their timeline. A team of X-Men embarked on a suicide mission at the Henry Gyrich Memorial Detention Center in order to secure access to the personality imprint of Feilong, a former Orchis associate who knew the location of Sinister. They were successful, prompting the remaining X-Men to travel to Phobos where Sinister was kept imprisoned.; The X-men were unable to keep their presence hidden, and were quickly intercepted by Nimrod and Omega Sentinel. While the two machines quickly overmanned the X-Men, they managed to buy enough time for Shadowtiger to use her powers to transport Wolverine to Sinister's prison. Knowing Sinister had a fail-safe, Wolverine killed him, triggering his Moira Engine to reset the timeline.

+In a temporal offshoot of Earth-616 designated as Moira II.4, Abigail Brand successfully saw her plan to start an intergalatic war to completion. However she underestimated and was betrayed by Orbis Stellaris, whose army simultaneously struck Arakko, Krakoa and Earth as a whole. Unprepared, most Avengers perished in the opening salvo, which killed most people on Earth and made the planet uninhabitable by stripping its atmosphere. A small group of Mutants survived by escaping to space on an Acanti-borne Arakko, ironically under the leadership of Brand herself.; Allying with the Starjammers, Brand's X-Men survived for years, occasionally making supply runs to Earth's airless surface. During one such run they rescued and brought with them a group of their long-dead friends - time-traveling X-Men from another timeline. Progidy's power allowed him to absord Brand's memory and quickly bring his group up to speed on her timeline's history. Time-traveling X-Men asked to be brought back to the serface when the Technarchy attacked, send by Stellaris who was after the last mysterium in the universe that was kept by Brand's X-Men. They engaged the intruders in a fight, in which the Starjammers soon arrived to help, while the time-traveling X-Men proceeded with their own mission. In the midst of the battle, Brand to her shock and surprise came across still-alive Moira MacTaggert.

+First appearance: X-Force Vol 1 116
+Created by: Peter Milligan; Mike Allred
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: A media-driven mutant team used for publicity.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: X-Statix Tower, Santa Monica, Los Angeles
+Farm Team: X-Statix Training Camp, Mojave Desert, Nevada
+Equipment: "Clever Little Pills": Medication who allow the members to sober up in about fifteen second, by an unknown action on the liver. It has possibly side effects. Exist in both vanilla and mochaccino flavor.
+Weapons: ==Commercial and promotion aspects==; This X-Force was focused on the creation of fame and money.; Owned and financed by Spike Freeman, a young and arrogant trimillionaire, they were tasked to perform video-recorded missions (with Doop as their cameraman) proposed by various sources, and all intended to create a spectacular and bloody show, with high kill-rates.; In order to produce more money, in addition to the TV show, a network of X-Force Cafés ran by franchise-holders was created, selling many kind of merchandising, and creating a few minor events or meetings on some occasions.; Several Fan Clubs were also set up, focused on the whole team, or on some members.; Every information, such as the death of members or the new recruitments, was treated by marketing counsellors in order to produce suspense and catch the customers' and fans' attention in order to make them buy more products.; The team was also tasked to inaugurate various public and private buildings such as malls or the Doop Kiddies Hospital, and also to attend Conferences.; Among the various stuff produced by or around the team are also the "X-Statix Mega Lottery".; Additionally to X-Force/X-Statix merchandising, every members had their personal agent, agenda and merchandising, as Phat who had a range of weight-watching products, "Phat no more".; Additionally, others shows pop out around X-Force/X-Statix. First, Lacuna rejected an asked membership to create Lacuna and the Stars, using her powers to infiltrate and drag intel about useless things about the stars, focussing on X-Statix. Later, the show O-Force was launch by Solomon O'Sullivan as a concurrent team, where the membership was decided by public's vote and no internal selection.
+Transportation: U-Go Girl & Venus Dee Milo teleportation.
+Notes: For being a mercantile team with no interest in the social fights for their kind but only for fame and money, this group was blamed by many mutants, including the original X-Force, Wolverine or the Brotherhood. Also, they induced a confusion in the public's mind, giving a false image of the mutants conditions.
+Trivia: As X-Force had to change name,; The Orphan proposed X-Division and X-Heroes.; Vivisector thought about X-Foliates.; A reporter talked about a rumor about X-Squad.; U-Go Girl proposed X-Men ("the perfect name for a group of mutants with the X-Gene"). and later X-Statix.; Spike Freeman was proposed by his collaborators the name of X-Storm.; ----; In order to possess always ready members to be incorporated to the current line-up to replace deceased members, Spike Freeman has set several "farms", with X-Forces in training. Among the potential recruits were referenced Anti-Matter (Arlo Summers), Sycamore, Washout, Mant, Lightning Bug, and Corkscrew.; He had also a band of Eurasian mutants in training, called the Euro-Trash, composed of the Japanese Miz Tree, the German Wall (Günter Gross), the French Surrender Monkey, the Iraqi Blind Ali, and the British Oxford Blue, stereotypical heroes.
+History:
+===First and second line-ups===; After the original X-Force seemed to sacrifice themselves, producer Spike Freeman thought up an idea to have a public mutant team with government backing, under the management of Coach.; Most of the original members were killed, especially in a disastrous mission trying to save the 'boy band' pop group Boyz R' Us from kidnappers. This was secretly planned by Coach and Zeitgeist, who felt the body count and changing rosters would add interest. Zeitgeist was regretful though, and ended up being one of the members killed, and only U-Go Girl and the recent recruit Anarchist survived.; Based on those two and on Mister Sensitive, a new roster was set up. The team also quickly fight with the original X-Force, led by Domino, for the name of the team.; Under the Orphan (Mister Sensitive)'s lead, the team started act also in a less interested way, saving a mutant child, Paco Perez, from military interest and disobeying to the Coach.; Coach tried to rape U-Go Girl and kill the Orphan on two occasions, helped by Smoke and Succubus, but failed and the three were killed.; X-Force was among the numerous heroes captured by Graviton and freed by the Thunderbolts.; ===Targeted by the Brotherhood===; X-Force performed a mission in Japan, against the Tokyo Cell of the mutant terrorist Brotherhood, terminating all members of the group. In response, their leader X gathered the remaining members of the falling-apart Brotherhood to hit X-Force, targeting especially Doop the heart of the team, to both target what X sees as mutant collaborators to the system, and to send a message to mutantkind: Or they were with the Brotherhood, or they were against them. The murder attempted ended in a bloodbath, as the X-Force kill them without questioning and some Brotherhood's members fight each other. As the Orphan wondered what had just happened there, Edith answered that the Revolution was over, leaving the devastated field. Once more, Lacuna was seen with them, on publicities or during the parade. Therefore, she wasn't seen fighting either the Brotherhood Tokyo Cell or their last gathering.; ===New Name===; As X-Force had to change name because of the original team pressure and because Spike Freeman had money to pay every month to the original team, Edie finally proposed X-Statix. Spike Freeman refused, as his collaborators had chosen another name, but Edie's name captured the attention of the public and was chosen (thank to Lacuna's emission), and was adopted by Freeman.; Freeman himself was killed after trying to have Lacuna murdered.; After saving Doop from government hands, the remaining members decided to retire. However, on their last mission, a group of unknown gunmen ambushed them, apparently killing all.; Only Doop has resurfaced since, joining the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning on Logan's proposition.; ===Return===; When Katie Sawyer, daughter of U-Go Girl, was captured by Zeitgeist and his team, the X-Cellent for her powers. The team was needed to reunite. Dead Girl and Doop grabbed the once-dead Mister Sensitive and Vivisector. They moved on to some of their teammates children. The A, son of Anarchist, and Phatty, daughter of Phat, were both recruited. After the battle, they teleported out. Katie declined at first, but soon accepted to join as their teleporter.

+History:
+The Sentinels assumed dictatorial powers over America in the late 21st Century. This continued until Summers came and forged an alliance between humans and mutants to bring the Sentinels down. Almost as soon as the Summers Rebellion succeeded, that alliance started to break apart, especially since Summers was no longer there to keep it going. Mutants wanted to move out of the camps and make better lives, but over and over they were met with hostility and driven away.; Some more radical mutant groups, such as the Exhumes, led by a literal firebrand named Daemon, met hate with hate. With Summers gone, Daemon listened to no one except his own dark soul. Even during the rebellion, Summers found it difficult to keep him and the Exhumes in line. At first, it was mere raids, but then he and his Exhumes destroyed the human settlement near Del Ray. That brought the Council back into session, and nearly at war with one another.; The X.S.E was formed; their mission was to keep alive the fragile dream born so many years ago by one man, Professor Charles Xavier. The dream was of a world where humans and mutants could live in harmony. The tattoo of the "M" over the right eye that once marked all mutants as outcasts was turned into a badge of honor. When the cadets graduate they would earn their "M" that would indicate that they were members of the X.S.E.; The time traveling X-Men, Bishop, was the youngest cadet to graduate the X.S.E Academy and become an officer. A year later Bishop's sister, Shard, took that honor away when she graduated.; Archer, Fixx, and Greystone also split from the main group to become Xavier's Underground Enforcers.; ==Recommended Readings==; XSE Vol 1 1 - 4

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Notes: The team name X-Terminators dates back all the way to when X-Factor was first formed. X-Terminators was the team name when they were posing as mutant hunters.
+History:
+The group known as the X-Terminators consisted primarily of the young mutants rescued by X-Factor during their early career posing as mutant hunters. Their ranks included Rusty Collins, the young Artie Maddicks, runaway Boom-Boom, Mexican immigrant Rictor, and former Morlocks Skids and Leech. When X-Factor revealed their mutant natures to the world, they feared for the children's safety, and also came to realize that things were not adequate at X-Factor headquarters to teach the students, so they were enrolled in private schools.; Rusty attempted to turn himself over to the military to obey the law following his accidental burning of a prostitute and subsequent warrant out for his arrest. Skids, Boom-Boom, and Rictor were enrolled in summer school at Philips Academy, while Artie and Leech were sent to St. Simons school where they made friends with paraplegic mutant Takeshi Matsuya, aka Wiz Kid. They were all soon drawn together to prevent the demon N'astirh from capturing thirteen mutant babies that he needed to sacrifice in order to open a portal between Earth and Limbo, in a conflict referred to as the Inferno. They took on the name the "X-Terminators", naming themselves after the name that X-Factor used when operating as mutants during the time that X-Factor were publically posing as mutant hunters. Ultimately, the X-Terminators teamed up with the New Mutants and helped save the thirteen captured babies and closing N'astirh's portal in Manhattan.; Following the end of Inferno, the X-Terminators disbanded when Artie, Leech, and Taki returned to St. Simons. Rusty, Skids, Boom-Boom, and Rictor all joined the New Mutants, serving with the team for a time as it soon evolved into X-Force.; In the present day, Cable formed a team to assist him in a mission on Breakworld which, although Boom-Boom declared the team an X-Force reunion, Wiz Kid dubbed them the All-New X-Terminators since "X-Force" was taken. The team successfully managed to obtain the necessary Breakworld technology, turn it into a gun, and appropriate it for Krakoa's use, and Cable noted that he would call on these allies again.

+Base of operations: Moble
+History:
+After he left the X-Men, Gambit formed a group of thieves known as the X-Ternals, who would rob from Apocalypse and give to those who needed it. Members included Jubilee and Sunspot, as well as former musician Lila Cheney and her former roadie Guido Carosella. Unknown to all, Guido was secretly a double agent for Apocalypse. Their activities gained them a constant enemy in Madri Richter who became obsessed with capturing the X-Ternals in order to curry favor with Apocalypse. Gambit developed a romantic relationship with Lila, much to Guido's chagrin.; The X-Ternals were asked by Magneto to collect a shard of the M'kraan Crystal, which was needed to repair the damage done to the universe. To this end, Magento and the X-Ternals broke into the facility where Apocalypse kept his space records to learn the location of the Shi'ar galaxy and awaken Lila's latent teleportation abilities. While their mission was a success, they were attacked by Madri soldiers led by Richter. When they teleported away, they accidentally took Richter with them.; Arriving in the Shi'ar galaxy, the X-Ternals clashed with the Imperial Guard, super-soldiers under the command of the mad Emperor D'Ken who sought to control the crystal himself. The X-Ternals fled and were brought to safety by an alien named Jonath who explained the origins of the crystal to them. They were attacked by the Imperials and Richter again when suddenly the planet was hit with a crystallization wave from the unstable M'kraan Crystal. The X-Ternals were teleported to safety by the Starjammers before they could be caught in the wave.; The Starjammers brought the X-Ternals to the planet where the M'kraan Crystal was kept and went down to the planets surface with their leader Deathbird, D'Ken's sister. While Gambit, Lila, and Deathbird entered the crystal, the others stayed behind and held Richter, Gladiator, and an army of Shi'ar soldiers at bay. During the fight Sunspot connected with the crystal and was able to crystallize the entire attacking army. Inside the crystal, D'Ken was rendered immobilized by the crystal itself, while the robot defender Jahf told Gambit that in order to take from the crystal you had to give it something in return. Gambit would gave up his love for Rogue in exchange for a shard of the crystal. Upon exiting the crystal, the X-Ternals were forced to leave their friend Sunspot behind due to the fact that the crystal had made his body unstable. They teleported back to Earth before he likely exploded.; Back on Earth, the X-Ternals had to deal with not only Richter, but the betrayal of Guido. In trying to escape from the Morlock tunnels, they lost the Crystal and failed to stop Guido from kidnapping Magneto and Rogue's son Charles. They were buried alive only to be saved by the X-Men Exodus and Dazzler. Upon being brought back to the surface, Gambit told Rogue the bad news. Rogue mobilized a strike force to go after Apocalypse and rescue her son her husband Magneto and to recover the stolen M'kraan Crystal. Of the X-Ternals, only Jubilee and Gambit accompanied the X-Men into the battle that ended with Apocalypse's death and the repair of the universe. During the final battle, Guido was slain by Rogue.; Gambit rejoined the X-Men, and later perished in battle against the Sinister Six. The current activities of Lila Cheney and Jubilee are presently unknown.

+First appearance: X-Treme X-Men Vol 1 1
+Created by: Chris Claremont; Salvador Larroca
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: An X-Men independent splinter group idealized by Storm to operate under human laws that was granted official global jurisdiction.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Formerly mobile; Carriage House, Xavier Institute for Higher Education, Salem Center, Westchester County, New York, United States of America; Kitty Pryde's Apartment, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America; Rogue's Beach House, Valle Soleada, California, United States of America; Guthrie Farmhouse, Cumberland County, Kentucky, United States of America; Rogue's Manor, New Orleans, Louisiana, United States of America; Sydney, Australia; Rogue's Beach House, Valencia, Spain; Hotel Melia Valencia Palace, Valencia, Spain.
+Equipment: Formerly Sage's Network Cybernetic Sunglasses and bulletproof X-Uniforms.
+Transportation: Formerly Lila Cheney; Slipstream; X-Men Blackbird; a yacht.
+Notes: Named the "X-Treme X-Men" in recapitulation text and narration boxes since its conception, Storm's splinter group was not referred to by such a name in-universe until X-Treme X-Men Vol 3 4.; Though initially starring in the issues of the X-Treme X-Men Vol 1 comic book, the team's adventures have transferred to Uncanny X-Men Vol 1 following the 'ReLoad' initiative that had writers of the three main X-Men series switch books.
+Trivia: The Messiah War Sourcebook is formatted as logs written by Cable. In the X-Treme X-Men entry, Cable described that Storm had claimed the nickname "X-Treme" to be an inside joke made by Gambit. In turn, Gambit had blamed Rogue for coming up the name, which would be mere mockery.; The acronym generated by the name "X-Treme Sanctions Executive", X.S.E., mirrors the police organization Bishop worked with in the future Xavier Security Enforcers. Bishop mentions the paradoxical nature of the coincidence and the inevitability of a mutant police being eventually instituted.; X.S.E. is pronounced as "excess-y", potentially a wordplay with the authoritarian nature of police organizations.; Unlike the main X-Men team, Storm's X-Men often worked with local authorities even before being officers. Bishop served as liaison due to his status as an officer of the Australian federal police, and Sage often gathered intelligence for the team as a way to help them operate under the law.
+History:
+===Destiny's Diaries===; Distrusting Professor Xavier or anyone else with knowledge of the future of mutantkind, Storm secretly gathered a squad of mutants to obtain the missing volumes of the prophetic diaries written by the clairvoyant Destiny. To her quest she invited trusted allies, namely the loyal and strong Rogue, who was Destiny's foster daughter, the intelligent and charismatic Beast, the young and optimistic Thunderbird, the experienced and melancholic Psylocke, the authoritarian law enforcer Bishop, and the enigmatic and dubious Sage. The group left the idealistic X-Men and the safety of their Xavier Institute to operate as a splinter X-Men team subjected to the laws of humanity.; Another researcher on the future was the human warrior named Vargas. Having information about an upcoming and lethal encounter with Rogue, Vargas made his move against Storm's X-Men by anonymously providing the Spanish Guardia Civil with intel about the heroes' whereabouts in Valencia, the first stop of their quest. The X-Men were subdued and captured by the Spanish military, allowing Vargas to infiltrate their headquarters in order to strike at them. While attempting to escape the labyrinthic base, the X-Men resisted armed soldiers. Rogue was intercepted by Vargas, and ultimately joined by her teammates Beast and Psylocke. Although Rogue survived unscathed, Vargas managed to brutalize Beast and slay Psylocke. After Psylocke's funeral, the critically injured Beast returned to the X-Men living at the Xavier Institute while Vargas demonstrated to be winning the race for acquiring the books.; Alongside a recovered Beast, the X-Men helped a reptilian community of Saurids travel to the Savage Land, becoming targets of Brainchild and his Mutates. Entrapped in a chaotic political situation in the Savage Land, the X-Men confronted Beast and Storm, who had mentally succumbed to the will of Brainchild and his mutate Lupa. The X-Men defeated Brainchild, and the diverse tribes of the Savage Land gained a perspective of harmony without his influence.; While studying Destiny's diaries, the X-Men learned that one of their allies, the thief Gambit, was accused of murdering the Australian crime-lord known as Viceroy. As most of the X-Men investigated the puzzling crime in Sydney, Rogue found Gambit at the mercy of the organization known as the Triad. One of the Triad's leaders, the Examiner, tortured Rogue and Gambit until they were freed by a dissident, the warrior Red Lotus. Meanwhile, the other X-Men protected Viceroy's illegitimate children and potential targets, the lifeguard Heather and the surfer Davis Cameron. When monitoring the ordeal, Sage was attacked by the actual assassins, her former boss in the Hellfire Club, Sebastian Shaw, and his associate, the illusionist Lady Mastermind. Attacked by the Triad, Storm and Thunderbird learned Heather Cameron was a mutant herself and were able to escape. Bishop teamed up with inspector Teri Baltimore to solve the murder. However, Rogue, Gambit and Red Lotus fell to Shaw and Mastermind. In the end, with Heather Cameron's help as Lifeguard, Lady Mastermind was defeated. The Examiner was judged by the Triad for his activities thanks to Gambit's skills and influence as a criminal. However, as a powerful businessman, Shaw evaded the law in the form of Bishop and Baltimore.; The X-Men then visited their former associate Gateway in the Australian Outback. Gateway was kidnapped by the nefarious Shadow King. Rogue was corrupted by the Shadow King, while the X-Men were attacked by Gateway's former captors, the cyborgs known as the Reavers. Rogue resisted the manipulations and broke Gateway free. With the Reavers handed over to the police, the X-Men acquired another volume of Destiny's diaries that was in possession of Gateway.; Reunited with Gambit, the X-Men learned about his interest in the Madripoor Set, a collection of mystic stones linked to a temple in Madripoor. Since Storm owned one of the gems, the X-Men were attacked by the brutal Shaitan, who kidnapped Gambit to use him as a sacrifice lamb for a ritual. To follow him, Sage triggered Davis Cameron's latent mutant genes. As the teleporter Slipstream, Davis Cameron transported the X-Men to Madripoor, where they were joined by its ruling prince Viper. Shaitan conducted the ritual, casting a giant tower over the temple for the passage of an extradimensional army. Unbeknownst to the X-Men, they captured the invasion's leader, General Khan. After Khan was saved by Shaitan, he was able to capture Storm, with whom he had become infatuated. With Storm locked up, Shaitan assumed her form to trick the X-Men. Meanwhile, they combated Khan's army in all ways they could to prevent his conquer.; The X-Men infiltrated the tower due to Lifeguard evolving into a Shi'ar royal creature. Meanwhile, Rogue attempted to protect Madripoor and free Gambit from Khan. This turned her into a target for Vargas. Storm, as a hostage, was severely wounded by one of Khan's jealous concubines. Even harmed, she led her X-Men to destroy Khan's tower and force an evacuation. Although victorious, the X-Men found Rogue and Gambit mortally wounded by Vargas. Rogue momentarily recovered and slayed Vargas, avenging Psylocke and realizing that studying Destiny's diaries had only brought misery to those who pursued its secrets. Celebrated as heroes for preventing the world from being conquered, the X-Men struggled to heal from the attack, both Rogue and Gambit lost their mutant abilities in the process. Although they suffered no casualties, the team lost members. Slipstream chose to abandon the team as he could not recognize his sister in her new monstrous Shi'ar form. Lifeguard left next in order to adapt to her new condition, being joined by Thunderbird. The powerless Rogue and Gambit also left, moving to the mutant friendly community of Valle Soleada.; ===Heroes of Humanity===; In order to help with the recovery of a paraplegic Storm, Wolverine joined her team. They became the interest of the tabloid Spotlight and were interviewed by correspondents Manoli Wetherell and Neal Conan. Spotlight's producer, Paul D'Antoni, wished to portray the X-Men as a threat to the world. When attempting to reason with D'Antoni, Storm learned his show had been cancelled due to actions of the influential X-Man Archangel, head of one of Xavier's X-Corporation divisions. Storm exposed Archangel's secret actions to the public as a way to punish him for being a privileged outlaw.; While Storm recovered, the X-Men soon found a new case when learning about a mutant murder in Anchorage. Bishop and Sage tracked down the main suspect, the pre-teenage teleporter Jeffrey Garrett, to the Xavier Institute. The Institute's headmistress Emma Frost sabotaged the investigation to protect the boy. Frost was influenced by the real mastermind behind the murder, the mutant psychic predator Elias Bogan. Storm and her X-Men took matters to their own hands by invading the Xavier Institute as an ideological schism ensued. Bogan used the virtual reality of the Danger Room to gain control over the X-Men and many of the Institute's students. Storm and Frost called a truce to stop his attack. Though successful, they could not capture him.; To expand her operations, Storm recruited the high-flying Cannonball. Soon after, the X-Men learned about mutant-hater activist and leader of the Purifiers, Reverend William Stryker, escaping prison. When investigating the incident and being attacked by Purifiers, the X-Men were tackled by the deadly cyborg Lady Deathstrike. In order to carry out his mission, Stryker and Deathstrike captured former X-Man Kitty Pryde. However, Deathstrike's body was controlled by the mutant Reverend Paul from the community of Mount Haven, who managed to capture Pryde and Stryker. The X-Men invaded Mount Haven only to learn Reverend Paul used brainwashing technology to keep his community peaceful. Moreover, by believing humans had no soul, Reverend Paul recklessly murdered them in his mutant town. In fact, Reverend Paul was a faulty artificial intelligence. Pryde and the X-Men managed to overcome its influence, and Stryker decided to stay at Mount Haven to prevent Reverend Paul's nannites from escaping to other parts of the world.; Storm had her X-Men turn their attention to Professor Xavier's X-Corporation as a mutant-specific conglomerate that benefit mutant individuals. In Valle Soleada, home to Rogue and Gambit, X-Corporation directly sabotaged law actions involving human citizens that were either physically or financially victimized by mutants. The X-Men found themselves directly involved in a fight between the mutant gang known as the Spikes and a mutilated human survivor named Marie D'Ancanto. Supported by the mutant-hating organization named Purity, D'Ancanto performer terrorist acts in Valle Soleada, but was offered help by the X-Men being legally represented by their lawyer Vange Whedon. Realizing mutant influence in Valle Soleada was unnatural, the X-Men investigated X-Corporation. They were joined by Magma in their mission of seeking answers from X-Corporation director Roberto da Costa. Da Costa helped the X-Men to ease tensions in Valle Soleada, which were revealed to have been escalated by Elias Bogan's psychic manipulations.; Simultaneously, Storm got official recognition from politicians in the United Nations like Val Cooper and Alexei Vazhin for her team. In exchange for having her X-Men sanctioned, she was tasked of targetting the slaver Tullamore Voge by herself under Vazhin's orders. During her mission, Storm left her X-Men in Valle Soleada to deal with Bogan. His first victim was Bishop, who he tortured and mentally commanded to attack the X-Men. Da Costa had some of his X-Corporation to help the X-Men in fighting back. However, most of the team was defeated. Another ally to the team during the war against Bogan was Kitty Pryde. Sage, Rogue, Magma and Pryde freed their allies from Bogan and planned to finish him. They gained advantaged after incapacitating Bogan's enslaved telepath, the former X-Man Rachel Summers. Recovered and counting with the assistance of Storm and her friend Callisto, the X-Men made their final stand against Bogan, cleaning Valle Soleada from his influence.; ===Global Marshalls===; Storm formally announced her intentions of transforming the X-Men into the X-Treme Sanctions Executive, a.k.a. X.S.E., a paramilitary force responsible for policing relations between humans and mutants, similar to the Xavier Security Enforcers of an alternate future. In between the transition, the X-Men were alerted by Rachel Summers about Kitty Pryde being haunted by the dark influence of her former nemesis Ogun. Storm had Lila Cheney teleport Wolverine and her X-Men to Pryde's flat in Chicago in order to take care of the situation. Simultaneously, Rachel Summers also identified that the anti-mutant organization Purity had been planning to elevate their activism. For the moment, Storm decided to focus on hunting Ogun. Being psychically tormented by Ogun, the X-Men could not evade the actions of Purity, who had the super agents of the Galérer subdue them. This allowed Alice Tremaine and the Wild Sentinel Scrap deactivate mutant powers in the area, seemingly murdering Pryde in the process. Furious, Storm led the X-Men to strike back at their enemies. As Sage was able to calm the Purity protesters down, Pryde survived in her intangible state and, alongside Storm, destroyed Scrap and restored the mutant abilities in the area. However, this allowed Ogun to possess it. By joining forces, the members of the X.S.E. defeated him and Rachel Summers destroyed any traces of his existence. At peace, X.S.E. was ready to finally start their official operations.; Storm had Bishop, Sage, Wolverine, Cannonball, Rachel Summers adopting the legacy of the Marvel Girl, and the warm-hearted Nightcrawler as the officers of her mutant police. They returned to the Xavier Institute, which was no longer run by Xavier, but by Cyclops and Emma Frost. The team was based at the Carriage House, a secluded and independent building on the grounds of the X-Mansion in which they had access to vast amounts of data to decide their missions. At the United Nations' behest, they had the law-enforcement responsibility of dealing with mutant-related crimes. Their missions were selected and monitored by Sage. During a mission, Storm, Bishop, Marvel Girl and Cannonball confronted the molesting Weaponeers of Achmed Al-Khalab in the Central Saharan Republic, who escaped after their prisoners were freed. Simultaneously, Nightcrawler and Wolverine supervised an incident regarding a volatile mutant teenager at a high school in Wade River, Washington, D.C., but were treated with hostility by the local police officers, tragically leading to the boy's demise. Warbird intervened to vouch for the X.S.E. and protect them from anti-mutant sentiment.; For one of their missions, Sage instructed the team to contact Brian Braddock, the champion Captain Britain, at Braddock Manor. There, Bishop, Marvel Girl and Cannonball were easily subdued by the cybiote hero-killer known as the Fury. Having access to the cybernetic sunglasses X.S.E. used for communications and intel, the Fury infected X.S.E.'s database with nanites and assimilated Sage. Taken over by the Fury, she proved a formidable threat to Storm, Nightcrawler and Wolverine at the Xavier Institute, until they were able to sever the connection established through the glasses. Free from the mind control, the team combined their powersets at Braddock Manor to help Marvel Girl create a miniature black hole effect and defeat the Fury. Around this period, Cannonball left the team to assist Cable and his X-Force against the creature Skornn.; Before leaving the United Kingdom, the X.S.E. members were captured by Viper, who sought for revenge against the team due to the incidents that took place in Madripoor during Khan's invasion. She trapped the group in one of Arcade's Murderworlds, where Sage was apparently executed by Viper herself. It was soon revealed that Wolverine had used an image inducer to take Sage's place for they had been aware of Viper's plans prior to the kidnapping. This incident caused Sage to learn that Sebastian Shaw was reforming the Hellfire Club's Inner Circle, since Viper was shown to have formed an association with Courtney Ross, the new White Queen. However, Sage kept the information a secret from her teammates.; X.S.E. was informed of murder cases in the mutant neighborhood of District X. The wounds were seemingly attributed to Wolverine's claws. In their investigation, X.S.E. found out the killer to be a young girl who worked as a waitress in a local club and shared abilities with Wolverine. In the ensuing fight, X.S.E. brought the attention of the criminal Bacchae, who were defeated. Wolverine was able to approach the girl, a clone of his designated X-23, who revealed to having been protecting her friends from violence caused by the Bacchae's attempt to control District X. In the end, X-23 was taken to the Xavier Institute.; Following this incident, Sage accepted to return to the Hellfire Club and left the X-Men, causing them to pursue her with Emma Frost's assistance. Through Sage's machinations, Frost and Marvel Girl went to Ross and Viper in Hong Kong to dismantle a slaver operation inside the Hellfire Club. Meanwhile, by having Bishop track Shaw, Storm, Nightcrawler and Wolverine found Sage at the Hellfire Club Mansion. Sage had placed Roberto da Costa as the new Black King of the Hellfire Club. Before X.S.E. could decide on a position to take in these events, the obscene Donald Pierce intervened against them. Pierce was defeated, but at the cost of Shaw's health, which had been predicted by Sage all along as part of a coup attempt. She permanently left the X.S.E. to advise and guide da Costa, the new Lord Imperial of the Hellfire Club, and her shady acts cost her the trust of her former teammates in the X-Men.; ===No More Mutant Police===; Unexpectedly, the Guardia Civil informed Storm's team about Psylocke's resurrection at the site of her death. Soon after, when looking for a missing Wolverine, the group was kidnapped by the Hauk'ka to the Savage Land. Psylocke and X-23 went to their rescue. Marvel Girl was brainwashed into joining the Hauk'ka, cruelly fighting her teammates as a consequence. The Hauk'ka attached Storm to a mechanism that tapped into her powers in order to freeze the world and obliterate life on it. As the world succumbed to a brutal ice age, the X-Men freed Storm with Brainchild's help. However, the traitorous Brainchild tampered with Storm's genome in order to maintain the global freezing effect. Storm attempted to have X-23 finish her and stop the threat. Instead, the regretful Hauk'ka decided to stop the uncontrollable Storm to save the world.; Back to the Xavier Institute, the X-Men had to cope with events concerning Wolverine succumbing to Hydra conditioning and with Colossus returning from death. Weeks later, during a training sessions in the Danger Room, X.S.E. members were surprised by their missing allies Juggernaut and Nocturne, who had been used as a beacon for the sorcerer Spiral and her lunatic master Mojo to teleport from Mojoworld. Mojo tortured X.S.E. for the sake of entertainment by regressing them to childhood as X-Babies. Psylocke proved to be immune to his spell and helped the X-Babies oppose him. In the end, the X-Babies had the X-Men's help in defeating and arresting Mojo and Spiral.; The pirate Weaponeers were still a problem to be dealt with, and X.S.E. came to stop them in the African country of Zanzibar. During the fight, however, they were caught in a reality-warping effect caused by the Scarlet Witch, who reshaped existence into a world where mutants were dominant. When confronted by the X-Men and the Avengers, she reverted the effect, but in the process she reduced the mutant population to a small portion of what it had been, an event that became known as the M-Day. Storm stayed in Africa, arguing with Cyclops that mutantkind should not be concentrated in just one place since the crisis was global. Her decision ultimately led to the dissolution of X-Treme Sanctions Executive, which had no place in a world with only some dozens of mutants active. The former team has largely ceased its activities as law enforcement and concentrated on dealing with the damage from M-Day. Official and legal matters regarding mutantkind were supplanted by the O*N*E program.

+History:
+The X-Patriots were a group of mutants who escaped from Genosha. They sought asylum in America, but the political situation in Genosha had changed since their departure by boat months earlier, so the State department no longer deemed asylum necessary, prompting an incident. X-Factor initially arrived as liaisons to the matter, but were called away by the X-Cutioner's Song, leaving the X-Patriots to their own devices.; They briefly took over a hospital, prompting a response by the mercenary Random. Afterwards, X-Factor accompanied them back to Genosha to address the current political climate.

+Base of operations: Westchester, New York State
+Equipment: The X-People wear uniforms, at least some of which are made of unstable molecules, and sometimes carry Mini-Cerebro units to track and identify nearby mutants.
+Weapons: Angry Eagle uses stun daggers.
+History:
+The X-People were formed by Jubilee, who was a former member of the X-Men, Generation X and the Avengers. Due to the decrease in anti-mutant sentiment (caused by the sacrifice of the X-Men to save the Earth), the now more mature and experienced Jubilee decided to start a new version of the X-Men (her "X-People") and began taking on mutant heroes for training. Some of her first students were not very dedicated (such as the speedster Bluestreak, who left due to the lack of publicity the X-People garnered). However, Jubilee found four exceptional heroes (the high flying Angry Eagle, the ape-like Simian, the stretchable Spanner, and the superfast Torque) to form her core team, the X-People.; The X-People were a publicly visible team, but Jubilee tended to keep the team out of the affairs of the rest of the superhero teams, likely out of concern for her students' welfare. On at least one occasion Jubilee turned down a call for assistance from the Avengers. Like her mentor, Charles Xavier, Jubilee sought out mutants in trouble as well, such as Nancy Lu, a mutant who was being harassed by anti-mutant vandals. Bluestreak was a member of the team for a short time but left, claiming this was due to the lack of publicity.; The X-People were briefly put under the sway of Enthralla, and attacked J2 when he arrived to inquire about a possible membership. The X-People were shocked back into their right minds by a clap-driven wave of cold water from J2, and they proceeded to apprehend Enthralla in Spanner's extended arm. Jubilee thanked J2 for the assistance, but declined his membership request.; After the Sisterhood of Mutants began to stalk a mutant girl named Sarah Hingle, The X-People out the hideout the Sisterhood had just abandoned. They tried to track her, sending Push to try to sway her to their side. Later, when Hingle, calling herself Nucleus, went ballistic on Humanity First, the X-People arrived to try to contain her, but none of them was fast enough to penetrate Nucleus's energy bands. After Spider-Girl arrived and talked Hingle down, Magneta triggered Hingle's power remotely somehow, releasing a massive energy burst that flattened Spanner and all those present with her. Paramedics soon arrived to take the X-People, to see medical help.

The X-Sentinels duplicated the powers of the mutants as well.; The X-Sentinels were destroyed when Wolverine realized that the "Marvel Girl" he was facing did not have the scent of the real Jean Grey and he and his teammates no longer felt the need to hold back in destroying their foes.

+Species / origin: Nature Girl's dissatisfaction with the way humanity treated planet Earth birthed a new team of extremist environmentalists
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+Affiliation: Formerly:; Mutant Nation of Krakoa
+Equipment: Krakoan Cudgel
+Transportation: Krakoan Gateways
+History:
+As time passed on Krakoa, one amongst their youngest generation, Curse, fell more and more of an outcast due to her jinx powers. One day, as a sea turtle washed on the shores of Krakoa choking on a plastic bag, Curse used her powers to make Nature Girl an outcast as well and sympathetic towards her, unintentionally sending her on a vengeful journey to make humanity pay for their crimes against the planet. Using one of Krakoa's Gateways, Lin Li traveled to Las Vegas in order to find the ones responsible. She confronted the owner of Owen's Grocery, the brand of the plastic bag, and, after growing disgruntled by his apathy about the loss of animal lives, Lin jabbed the complacent store owner in the neck with a pair of scissors.; The police were called to the scene and sent a trained dog to apprehend her, but, using her powers, Nature Girl tamed and befriended the canine, who also communicated its dissatisfaction with the way the planet was treated by humans. Lin then summoned several creatures of the wild as a distraction, as she made an escape with her new friend, whom she renamed Saoirse.; The two were soon confronted by Wolverine, dispatched by Professor Charles Xavier to bring her home for judgement, but his quarry prepared for this and shacked up with a bear in its adjacent cave, as Logan duked it out with one of nature's toughest denizens. Nature Girl managed to swipe his motorbike and road off to her true destination.; Back at the Krakoan Gate in Las Vegas, Lin tried to convince Saoirse to leave her side and go back home, but she refrained and followed her new leader to the island nation. While ruminating on all she would need to do to get people's attention about the dire situation of the planet, she was met by one of the more internecine residents named Curse, who wanted to join their crusade, possessing a newfound respect for the soft spoken child star.; The three formed X-Men Green, and evaded capture for a long time, during which Lin Li changed a lot, both psychologically (becoming increasingly radical) and physically (losing her hair). Given time, however, Wolverine managed to capture them, and, as expected, they were sentenced to the Pit of Exile. They accepted their fate with no regret, but Cypher, at the request of Krakoa, arranged for them to escape, despite no longer being allowed on the island.; Joined by Sauron, X-Men Green continued to brutally fight for Planet Earth, following encrypted leads left by Pyro in his novels. They found themselves toe to toe with the likes of Namor and Black Panther. After escaping Black Panther, X-Men Green found themselves at the headquarters of Hordeculture, a group of fellow environmental terrorists, and the two groups formed an uneasy alliance.; To better achieve their plans, the team decided to try and release the Armageddon Man, a mutant with the power to cause natural catastrophes. Nature Girl figured her connection with Planet Earth would allow her to control him, since he was basically the embodiment of nature's wrath. And she was right, the two had indeed a connection. The problem was that, by then, Nature Girl had grown increasingly cruel due to Curse's wish and was starting to lose the grasp of reality, causing Armageddon Man to start acting erratic as well. As she and Sauron turned against each other in the middle of a storm caused by Armageddon Man, Curse revealed her part in making Nature Girl become this evil. However, Nature Girl didn't believe her, forcing Curse to use her powers to revert the situation and suffer the consequences of using them for good.; Following Curse's death, Nature Girl and Armageddon Man went into hiding beneath Los Angeles as they began to plot their revenge. To attack Hordeculture, Nature Girl and Armageddon Man sought out Gwen Warren (Spider-Girl) in Salem Center. Promising her acceptance, Nature Girl managed to convince Spider-Girl to join X-Men Green.; The three of them then charged against Hordeculture, whom Nature Girl considered responsible for Curse's death. They were able to do a great deal of damage, but Hordeculture attacked Armageddon Man with the genus compound, which was capable of devolving mutants into base line human. At first, Armageddon Man was almost appreciative, for no longer having the curse of his destructive powers, but Hordeculture shot him with the compound a second time, devolving him into some extinct lemur. With their headquarters starting to collapse, Hordeculture saw a chance to escape and took it, with X-Men Green escaping shortly after as well. Once again forced to lay low for a while, Nature Girl, Gwen and the lemur Armageddon Man retreated to Santo Marco, where they began plotting their next step.

She initially tried to recruit Storm, but Storm turned her down believing the Arakkii needed representation rather than monitoring. Brand then recruited Vulcan to her X-Men to add the prestige of having a Summers brother on her team. However, immediately after forming the team, Manifold resigned because he disagreed with Brand's reasoning for forming her team. During one of their first missions, Cable was killed and the X-Men Red had to be rescued from the Progenitors attacking the Morrowlands by the Brotherhood of Arakko.

+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile; Formerly:; Noh-Varr's Kree Ship; Bishop Publishing, New York City, New York, United States; Ruins of Avengers Mansion, Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States
+Equipment: Avengers Fail-Safe Program, Pym Particles
+Weapons: Captain America's Shield, Hawkeye's Battle Staves, Hawkeye's Bow, Hawkeye's Sword, Mockingbird's Battle Staves, Patriot's Shield, Swordman's Sword, Wiccan's Staff, Kree Composite Soul Bow, Nega-Bands
+Transportation: Noh-Varr's Kree Ship, Wiccan's teleportation; formerly Quinjet
+Notes: In the last issue of the Fallen Son series, when the funeral of Captain America took place at Washington, D.C., all of the Young Avengers were present, wearing their outfits, and were even mentioned by name by the Falcon, while delivering the ceremonial speech. This suggested another amnesty was offered to Hawkeye and Patriot (and maybe Speed as well, although he was never accounted for during the story), who had stayed in the resistance after the end of the Civil War, alongside the New Avengers.; In She-Hulk Vol 2 21 it was revealed that the Hulkling and Wiccan that appeared to have joined the Initiative were actually a pair of interdimensional travelers known as "Alphas" whereas the actual Hulkling and Wiccan were shocked at the discovery that they had registered (the canonicity of this story, which was largely humorous, is unclear). Their current registration status, along with that of Hawkeye, Patriot, and Speed remains murky.; It seems that the Young X-Man Anole is somewhat infatuated with the Young Avengers. He seems to know a lot about them and even threaten to join them. This may be because as a gay teen superhero, Anole feels a sense of comradery with Hulkling and Wiccan.
+Trivia: The first Young Avengers powers, costumes, and codenames were inspired by classic Avengers members:; Iron Lad is based by Iron Man (and in effect War Machine). However, Vision, who replaced Iron Lad, is inspired partially by Iron Man and primarily by the original Vision.; Patriot is the grandson of the black Captain America, and bears a resemblance to the classic Captain America, Bucky and Luke Cage.; Hulkling is the son of Captain Marvel, a Kree, and the Skrull princess Anelle. He bears a resemblance to the green and muscular Hulk, but lacks his "anger issues".; Wiccan is patterned after both Thor and The Scarlet Witch.; Stature is the daughter of Ant-Man, wears his old costume, and has his powers. Her powers are also similar to those of Giant-Man, Wasp, Goliath, Yellowjacket, Atlas, and the new Ant-Man.; Hawkeye is based on a combination of original Hawkeye and Mockingbird and uses weapons similar on Hawkeye's Bow, Mockingbird's Battle Staves and Swordman's Sword. Her ability to learn quickly and master weapons have been compared to the villain Taskmaster.; Juvenile delinquent Speed is based on the reformed supervillain Quicksilver.; Some classic Avengers members that have yet to receive a Young Avenger counterpart include: Beast, Black Panther, Black Widow, Falcon, Ms. Marvel, Spider-Man, and Wolverine.; The new Young Avengers members were as well more or less inspired from Avengers members:; Noh-Varr is a member of the Kree race and, so it could have an inspiration in Captain Marvel, having been first an enemy then an ally of Earth, being inspired by him and having even wielded that code-name.; Miss America is the "patriotic character," regarding her code-name and costume, that matching with Captain America and having the capacity of flying and having super-human strength she shares powers with some female Avengers members like Jessica Jones or Ms. Marvel.; Loki has less correlation, but still is an Asgardian, so he could be a Thor counterpart, being a sorcerer he shares powers with Doctor Strange.
+History:
+===Origins===; A teenage boy named Nathaniel Richards came from the future, fleeing Kang the Conqueror, his future self after stealing his armour. He arrived at Avengers Mansion, but it had been abandoned in light of the Scarlet Witch's mental breakdown and subsequent damage caused. He headed to Stark Industries, and was able to access the remnants of Vision from which he extracted the systems and data and uploaded into his armour.; Nathaniel discovered that it contained the Avengers Fail-Safe Program, which listed young heroes related to the Avengers.; He formed a team with Eli Bradley, Billy Kaplan, and Teddy Altman. They took every mission available, such as rescuing people during a fire. After their first mission was recounted in the Daily Bugle, Jessica Jones was sent to investigate the heroes who had been nicknamed Iron Kid, Lieutenant America, Teen-Hulk, and Thor Jr.. Captain America and Iron Man also investigated.; Cassie Lang was interested in following her father's legacy, and her powers accidentally triggered during an argument with the others. Kate Bishop accompanied the heroes after helping them fight off kidnappers at her sister's wedding.; The Young Avengers prepared for Kang's arrival. Captain America, Iron Man, and Jessica Jones tried to dissuade them and had them locked in the Mansion while they awaited Kang. Kang was able to convince Cap and the others to assist him in this effort, showing them visions of an apocalyptic future he claimed would occur if Iron Lad was not forced to become another version of Kang. Kate had memorized the access codes, though, and was able to let them out as well as find items for them to prepare to battle Kang.; Iron Lad was separated from his armor due to Kang's cybernetic control, but with the Vision's A.I. it continued to fight him on its own. Kang left, but not before Iron Lad stabbed him with the Swordman's Sword.; The Vision was able to reform himself from Iron Lad's armor. Changes in the timestream forced Iron Lad to return to his future and become Kang, so he bade the others farewell and thanked them for at least trying to help.; Captain America was impressed with their effort but said that without parental permission he and Iron Man could not train them. Their equipment was also confiscated.; Kate was able to locate a new base and provided new costumes and equipment. With Captain America and Iron Man both taking interest in the kids' futures, the relationship between the Young Avengers and the New Avengers was up in the air. Also, the Vision, which formed from Iron Lad's armor was a blank slate, with no past experiences or history, and was, in essence, a child. The Young Avengers used their abilities to protect those that could not protect themselves and fought against evil at every turn.; ===Secret Identities===; The Young Avengers had to decide how much to tell their parents after the members decided to continue acting publicly. None of their parents found out. During a fight with Mister Hyde, Wiccan discovered Eli abusing MGH, a drug that gave people powers for short periods to appear to have superpowers. Eli confessed that he deceived the Vision, who meant to recruit his missing uncle Josiah, to join the team. Overwhelmed with emotion, he quit the team.; Jessica Jones interviewed the Young Avengers about their pasts at the insistence of Kat Farrell. Cassie Lang had a troubled home life, especially after her father died. She and her mother constantly fought and she hated her mom's new boyfriend. Had the Young Avengers not formed, Cassie planned to join the Runaways. Teddy Altman abused his shapeshifting powers to hang out with a more popular kid. He realized that he had gone too far when his "friend" tried to force him to steal artifacts from the destroyed Avengers Mansion. Billy Kaplan had a problem with being accepted. He met the Scarlet Witch, who explained that being different was not bad. Because Kate Bishop was assaulted in a park, she began combat training. Eli Bradley took the Mutant Growth Hormone because he felt powerless against some thugs, and wanted to prove that his grandfather truly was the first Captain America.; ===Family Matters===; Kl'rt the Super-Skrull tried to take Teddy to Tarnax IV, the Skrull homeworld. Kl'rt revealed that Mrs. Altman was not Teddy's mother and killed her. In the aftermath, Kl'rt kidnapped Teddy. The Vision offered to locate more "Young Avengers" using his prior incarnation's contingency plan. The Young Avengers broke Thomas Shepherd out of a superhuman prison and recruited him. Tommy could move at superhuman speed and accelerate matter, destabilizing it enough to cause an explosion. The Super-Skrull told Teddy of his true origin as the son of the Kree hero Captain Marvel, and the Skrull princess Anelle. He claimed that Tommy and Billy were lost twin sons of the Scarlet Witch and Vision. Billy believed him, but Tommy did not. Kree and Skrull combat forces arrived and fought each other and the Young Avengers until Teddy, realizing his importance to both sides, called for a ceasefire. The Avengers intervened and a Kree warrior fired at Captain America. Patriot intervened and was gravely wounded. Hulkling and Kl'rt ended the fighting by secretly shapeshifting into each others' forms. Captain America and Kl'rt, disguised as Hulkling, brokered shared custody between the races.; At a hospital, Eli's grandfather donated his blood to Eli. Captain America again told the Young Avengers to stop what they're doing. Kate blamed their trouble on the Avengers for not training them. The Young Avengers repaired the statues of fallen Avengers at Avengers Mansion. Eli now had superpowers as a result of the blood transfusion. Kate received Hawkeye's Bow and quiver from Captain America and she took the mantle of Hawkeye. Tommy arrived in costume and called himself Speed.; ===Civil War===; In Superhero Civil War, members of Young Avengers were captured by S.H.I.E.L.D. for not complying with the Superhuman Registration Act. Captain America and the Falcon helped them escape. Once in Captain America's secret base, the Young Avengers joined the resistance movement called the Secret Avengers. The team followed Captain America into a trap set by Iron Man. Wiccan, along with Cloak, was knocked out via tranquilizers while the rest of the Young Avengers joined the fight against Iron Man and the pro-registration heroes. Stature left the resistance after Goliath was killed by a clone of Thor and the Secret Avengers were forced to retreat from battle, leaving Wiccan behind. However, shortly afterward, Stature registered and began superhero training. The remainder of the team remained with Captain America. Stature was with Iron Man and the rest of the "pro-reg" group during the final battle between registered and rebel heroes.; ===Secret Invasion===; During the Secret Invasion, the Young Avengers were the only team in New York City to respond to the Skrull troops' first attack. Hulkling and Wiccan were the first to fall before the Initiative arrived to help. Despite the added support, the rest of the Young Avengers were defeated and Vision got his head blown off. Because of his royalty, Hulkling was the main target of the Skrulls. Before his execution, Xavin of the Runaways (also a Skrull) saved his life.; ===Dark Reign and Siege===; After the Secret Invasion transpired, all the Young Avengers remained under low profile during Norman Osborn's Dark Reign, who introduced his own version of the Young Avengers and send them to battle only to fall against the original Young Avengers. Meanwhile, Stature and Vision both joined the Mighty Avengers.; During the Siege of Asgard, the Young Avengers joined the battlefield alongside all the heroes available. Stature and Vision assisted the Mighty Avengers, Patriot and Hawkeye assisted the New Avengers, Speed acted at rescue/evac, and Wiccan and Hulkling fended off the Wrecking Crew.; ===The Children's Crusade===; After Wiccan's powers overloaded and the Avengers decided to keep him under observation, Hulkling and the other Young Avengers broke Wiccan out of holding and began the search for the Scarlet Witch. Accompanied by Magneto and Quicksilver, the team traveled to Transia and then to Latveria before discovering a depowered and amnesiac Wanda engaged to Doctor Doom. The rediscovery of Wanda did not go unnoticed though, as the Avengers soon arrived on the scene. A battle with Doom's Doombot army soon broken out and was only stopped by the arrival of Iron Lad.; Iron Lad took the Young Avengers and Wanda into the timestream in an attempt to regroup and restore Wanda's memories. The group arrived at the Avengers Mansion, shortly before the Scarlet Witch originally killed some of her fellow Avengers. Cassie used this opportunity to save her father's life. This trip was successful in restoring all of Wanda's powers and memories. Returning to the present Avengers Mansion, Wanda and the Young Avengers were met by Beast, Jessica Jones, and Hawkeye.; With Wanda's memories restored, she desired to make amends for M-Day, but was unsure how. To determine if she could repower any mutants, a volunteer needed: Rictor from X-Factor Investigations. Wanda was successful in restoring his powers, but the celebration was cut short by the arrival of both the Avengers and the X-Men.; With tensions high, a brawl broke out between the Avengers, Young Avengers, X-Factor, and X-Men over the custody and fate of the Scarlet Witch, forcing Wanda to put everyone asleep in an attempt to quell the fighting. Next, with the Young Avengers, Wanda returned to Doom in Latveria to regain her reality-warping powers. However, during the ritual to restore her powers, Patriot intervened and Doom betrayed them stealing the power for himself.; Armed with the reality-warping powers, Doom returned to New York City to offer the Avengers and X-Men a choice: join him or perish. During the ensuing battle, Doom's powers were overloaded and depleted. Unfortunately, Stature gave her life to defeat Doom.; Iron Lad proposed saving Stature by traveling into the timestream, but Vision refused, resulting in his destruction at the hands of Iron Lad. Although Wiccan warned of the danger of becoming Kang the Conqueror, Iron Lad left with the intent of alerting the timestream to suit his will and promising he would be much better than Kang.; In the aftermath of the battle, the Young Avengers disbanded and remained low profile during the major events that transpired over the next several months (the Spider-Island infestation, the X-Men's Schism, and the resurrection of the Human Torch). Wiccan stayed in a severe state of depression until Hulkling cheered him up by proposing. However, their moment of joy was interrupted by Ms. Marvel who called them to the Avengers Mansion. After a few words from Captain America, all the remaining Young Avengers (Hawkeye, Hulkling, Speed and Wiccan) were officially inducted as full-fledged Avengers, and a memorial to Stature and Vision was unveiled.; ===Marvel NOW!===; Sometime after their induction into the Avengers, the Young Avengers again decided to disband due largely to Wiccan's urging. Teddy and Tommy moved in with the Kaplans, but Tommy moved out a short time later. Kate began working with Clint Barton, while Teddy used his shapeshifting power to take on the identity of other superheroes to continue his heroics in secret.; When Billy learned about the secret superhero acts of Teddy, they had a fight that ended with Billy searching the Multiverse for a reality where Teddy's mom wasn't dead and transport her to their reality. Wiccan was unaware he had been being manipulated by Loki, the responsible for the following events, in an attempt to control Billy, knowing he was destined to become the omnipotent Demiurge. Instead of taking Teddy's mom, Wiccan accidentally took an interdimensional parasite called Mother.; Billy and Teddy were saved from Mother's grasp by Loki, and they were soon joined by other young heroes, Miss America, Noh-Varr, and Kate. At this point, Mother had taken control of numerous adults and had used her powers to revive the deceased parents of these young heroes. When they were cornered in Central Park by their resurrected parents and an army of mind-controlled adults only they could see, Loki convinced Wiccan to lend him his power for ten minutes to save them all with his better skill at magic than Wiccan. As soon as Loki acquired Billy's powers, he disappeared, abandoning the group.; While he intended to leave them to die, Loki had an internal conversation with his late child self, and was convinced to return to the team and empower them. After defeating Mother's army and escaping, the parasite faded away. Loki explained they couldn't go back to any place their parents were or had died (in the case of any deceased parent brought back by Mother) or Mother would return, as her powers were distance-based. The young heroes decided to stay together and travel through the universe.; In the next three months, Billy was trained by Loki to be prepared to fight Mother, with the ulterior motive of gaining his trust. The Young Avengers were joined by Prodigy, who informed them Speed was kidnapped by a strange entity dressed as Patriot. The Young Avengers chased the entity through the Multiverse, who brought them to Mother's Dimension. They escaped, but accidentally left Prodigy and Hulkling behind. Using numerous evil alternate version of themselves as a distraction, the Young Avengers distracted Mother and save Hulkling and Prodigy. Back to Earth-616, Hulkling left the team to figure out if he really loved Wiccan or if his feelings were merely a consequence of Billy unwittingly using his reality-warping powers to influence their romance, an unshakable discomfort Loki planted in Teddy's mind.; Teddy sought for help with Leah, who tricked him into returning to New York City, allowing Mother to come back to Earth-616, and threaten to unleash the evil versions of the Young Avengers to the world. Since Billy was still too weak to end the spell which brought Mother, Loki suggested that he would be able to do it if his body were older, thus making Wiccan age him into a young adult. Unfortunately, Loki claimed that his powers didn't remain. The trickster revealed he had a second plan, to turn Wiccan temporarily into the Demiurge, his form with all of his potential unleashed. After Prodigy called all the teenager heroes available to fight Mother, the team headed out to confront her.; During the battle, it was revealed Leah and her Young Avengers was a physical manifestation of Loki's guilt and the missing powers which he subconsciously gave up due to his guilt over killing his younger self. Loki finally confessed his crimes, the murder of his younger self and the manipulations the Young Avengers had been victims of. His confession made Leah and her Young Avengers disappear, thus Loki regained his powers and freed Teddy. Hulkling comforted Billy, and reconciled with him. Their reunion allowed Billy to become the Demiurge and destroy Mother. The team returned to Central Park where they were met by Billy's parents, but before he could introduce them, they realized Loki was gone, having fled the scene wracked with guilt over his actions.; Celebrating Mother's defeat, the Young Avengers threw a New Years' party, along with many young heroes that had come to their rescue. During the part, Prodigy was confronted by the entity who had kidnapped Speed, and after he discovered the entity's true nature, the entity returned Speed, who joined the Young Avengers in the party until it ended.; When the team departed the place using one of Miss America's portals, Loki, from behind, took a photo of the moment.; ===Original Sins===; Hulkling and Prodigy went to Noh-Var's space station to tell him that his ex-girlfriend was destroying space. The three of them investigated the blast site where the Watcher's eye detonated after his murder. Prodigy decided to help The Hood extract the information that affected people in the vicinity of the Watcher's eye exploding, before it killed them.; ===Reunion===; Eventually, Eli and his mother returned to New York, and his friends welcomed them back with a celebratory dinner. His former teammates were encouraged Eli to become Patriot again. As they were talking, the villain Terminus, attacked in a fit of rage. Jumping in, the Young Avengers reassembled again.; ===Empyre===; All of the Young Avengers are present during Billy and Teddy's "official" wedding. When they originally eloped David Alleyne was missing from the group. This is despite him having been with both Teddy and Tommy earlier that same night.

+Trivia: In the Silver and Bronze Age, Yancy Street Gang members' faces were rarely shown or they were depicted in shadows.; The professional wrestler Fatal Finnegan was once the idol of the Yancy Street Gang.
+History:
+===Origin===; In the late 19th century, the Yancy Street Gang rose to power in New York City's notorious Five Points district, a hub of crime and poverty. Named after their home; Yancy Street, they clashed with rival gangs like the Dead Rabbits and Bowery Boys for control over the streets of New York.; ===20th Century===; According to the accounts of Nick Fury, in the 1920s the Yancy Street Gang was nothing more than a group of poor kids and they would regularly brawl with rival gangs. However the gang took a more organized and brutal turn in the early 1930s. The Yancy Street Gang were a group of mobsters that ran a protection racket.; ===Modern Era===; One day they were particularly focused on forcing Ira Rosenbaum, proprietor of the Yancy Street Apothecary, to pay into their racket. When he refused to do so, one of the gang members broke his nose. Later when they went to Rosenbaum's residence, the gang members were jumped by Ben Grimm. Grimm was a time traveler from the future, better known as the monstrous Thing of the heroic Fantastic Four. Grimm, during a period in which he reverted to human form, came to the past to try and change history. Instead of carrying out his appointed task, when Ben reverted back into the Thing he helped the people of Yancy Street defend themselves from the gang. He sent the gang members packing, before returning to his own time.; ===The Grimms===; Decades later the Yancy Street Gang underwent changes as the neighborhood itself became a slum. By the modern age the era of the gang of mobsters with tommy guns was long since replaced with a gang of street hoods engaged in petty robberies and clashes with rival street gangs. Incidentally at one point one of the members of the Yancy Street Gang was Daniel Grimm, Jr. the older brother of Ben. When Ben was a child, Daniel tried to provide for his family with ill-gotten gains from gang activity. This created much tension in the family, as the Grimm household struggled to make ends meet thanks to Daniel Grimm, Sr.'s alcoholism. Many of the Yancy Street Gang's meetings under Daniel's leadership were done in the Grimm family kitchen, while Daniel and Ben's parents were out. Daniel often brought Ben out on the gang's various rumbles.; One night Daniel sneaked out of the house to join the gang in a fight against the Thompson Avenue Gang, unaware that Ben was following him. During the fight, Daniel was fatally stabbed. He died before the authorities arrived at the scene. Both gangs fled, leaving Ben to be picked up by the police. Ben eventually sought to join the Yancy Street Gang. As part of his initiation, Ben stole a golden Star of David pendant from Hiram Sheckerberg, the owner of the local pawnshop.; 10 years after his brother's murder, Ben was the leader of the gang. Ben was quickly pulled from the gang shortly thereafter, when his parents died and he was forced to live with his uncle Jake and aunt Alyce. When Ben attempted to call a meeting with the gang, they rejected him for "abandoning" them. They dumped a can of garbage of his head and called him a deserter, ending his leadership with the group. Deciding to devote himself to his new life, Ben was given every opportunity available. Ben moved on from his former life, becoming a high school and college football champion and later a test pilot. Many years later, Ben was involved in the rocket flight accident that caused the birth of the Fantastic Four, becoming the stone-skinned monster known as the Thing.; ===Early Antagonisms===; At first, like the public at large, the members of the Yancy Street Gang were unaware that Ben Grimm had been transformed into the Thing. When Ben returned to his old neighborhood to have a drink at a local Irish pub, he walked away from an altercation with members of the gang who were upset that he was talking during a televised wrestling match.; When the identities of the Fantastic Four became public knowledge, the Yancy Street Gang decided to focus their energies on tormenting the Thing with various pranks. At first they started off with harassing letters that the Thing merely laughed off. However these eventually morphed into packages containing booby-traps such as a spring loaded punching bag. Over the years this would become pattern behaviour from the Yancy Street Gang. However one source states that Ben's teammate the Human Torch was responsible for some of the pranks that have been attributed to the Yancy Street Gang. However there is presently no clarification as to which.; The gang angered the Thing into coming to Yancy Street after they sent him a drawing depicting him in a dress. However Ben had to stay his wrath when he spotted the Fantastic Four's signal flare calling him to action. As he left the members of the gang called him a chicken and pelted him with garbage and produce. However, the group came to believe that only they had the right to torment the Thing, and later when the Molecule Man forced the people of New York to hunt down the Fantastic Four, the Yancy Street Gang assisted them into getting to safety. When the Four later defeated the Molecule Man the gang resumed their usual torments. The Thing was drawn back to Yancy Street again after yet another harassing letter, but his hunt was once again cut short when he was attacked by Bull Brogin of the Terrible Trio. Later, after an escalation in crimes around Yancy Street, the Thing managed to convince his teammates in the Fantastic Four to investigate. However their investigation did not last long as they were chased out of the neighborhood by the Yancy Street Gang, and later pulled into a battle with the Red Ghost. The group continued to send harassing letters and packages to the Thing, at one point mailing him a Beatles style "mop-top" wig to "improve" his looks. When it was announced that the Fantastic Four's Mr. Fantastic and Invisible Girl were going to be married, the Gang sent congratulations in their own prankster fashion: With a bouquet of flowers that were hidden in a phony time bomb. Not long after this, Ben returned to Yancy Street to mull over one of Reed's most recent attempts to restore his humanity. The Gang attempted to have fun at his expense by trying to knock his hat off his head with a rock, however they stopped when the sullen Thing did nothing in retaliation.; ===Warming Relations===; Months later, Ben was called back to Yancy Street by Mrs. Coogan, to investigate a strange happening in the area. While Ben was inside listening to the testimony of Coogan's nephew, members of the Yancy Street Gang vandalized his Fantasticar writing slogans like "Stamp Out Ugly People" and "Thing Go Home" on the hood. Later, during a period in which the Fantastic Four had briefly broken up, Ben took a job working for NASA. In a rare instance of genuine well wishing the Yancy Street Gang mailed Ben a pocket watch as a gift. Thinking it was a bomb, Ben dunked the package in water ruining the watch. Sometime later the Yancy Street Gang was forced into working for the Corporation by the Machinesmith to create weapons to crush their enemies. This was on the day of the Thing's birthday, which the Gang took routinely mailed a prank gift to him. Hidden in the gag gift was a warning of danger on Yancy Street. Ben went to rescue his tormentors, but both the Yancy Street Gang and the Thing were incapacitated by the Machinesmith's robots and taken prisoner. The Machinesmith then used an alpha-wave headset that put the Thing under his thrall. The Thing was then used to battle the novice hero known as Jack of Hearts but he managed to free the Thing while the Yancy Streeters broke free and incapacitated the Machinesmith. In the aftermath of the battle, the Streeters played yet another prank on the Thing by giving him an exploding cigar.; Things started to go back to the status quo not long after. When the Thing passed through Yancy Street to get to an art show being put on by his girlfriend Alicia Masters the gang attempted another brick throwing incident. However this backfired as they were unaware that the alien Impossible Man was posing as the Thing's top hat and deflected the attack. Later when the Thing was moving Alicia out of her apartment, he was attacked by his old foes Live Wire and Shellshock. As the battle slipped into Yancy Street, the Yancy Streeters once again came to the Thing's defense, seeing themselves as the only ones allowed to torment the Thing. After the villains were defeated, the gang secretly painted "The Thing is a butt-head" on the back of the moving van. Sometime after this, Ben was contacted by a childhood friend who was concerned of his own son's involvement in the Yancy Street Gang. Ben tracked the gang down to the basement of the apartment he grew up in. After subduing the gang members he told them the story of his own involvement and left them with the hopes it would inspire them to leave the gang and rise above living on poverty stricken Yancy Street. When it was publicly announced that his teammate the Human Torch was going to marry his ex-girlfriend Alicia Masters, the Thing went to Yancy Street to pace around and sulk. Feeling at least partially sympathetic toward their old foe, the Yancy Streeters dumped garbage on his head and left out mannequins painted up to look like the Torch. In smashing the dummies, the Thing felt better and later went on to be the best man at the wedding.; ===Changing With the Times===; The Yancy Street Gang has ever been a gang that changed with the times and became more ethnically diverse. A new iteration of the gang consisted of female brawler "Two-Fisted" Tommie Boyd, the overweight "Little" Larry Lee, "Smooth" Manny Meregues a lock pick, the intelligent "Dictionary" Dawson, "Lugwrench" Lubowski a car hopper, and the percussionist "Rhythm" Ruiz. This iteration of the gang shared no less animosity toward the Thing than past incarnations of the gang, however they assisted the Thing in searching Jimmy Sokolowski a Yancy Street native who became addicted to drugs. They ultimately rescued the boy from long time Fantastic Four foe Dr. Doom who was experimenting on drug addicts in order to find a means of curing their additions, although his experimentation to date were fatal. They managed to save Sokolowski, but Doom escaped. This iteration of the group was later became prime suspects in the murder of a young runaway named Alison Gaulthing. The hero known as Justice was hired by the Childwatch Organization to apprehend the Yancy Street Gang and learn what they knew. Justice caught up with the Gang and demanded answers but he was convinced to stand down by the Thing. Ultimately the Gang was turned over to the authorities and when it was determined that they were only witnesses to the murder they were released from custody. The gang later was involved in a brawl with the Nomads gang, but their rumble was interrupted by a damaged Doombot that appeared on Yancy Street, sending both gangs fleeing for their lives. This Doombot was eventually destroyed by the NYPD's Code: Blue division. "Two--Fisted" Tommie Boyd's iteration of the Gang has not been seen since, their fates are unknown. Sometime later Ben returned to Yancy Street to get Mr. Sheckerberg's forgiveness, only to learn that the pawnshop owner was accusing the Yancy Street Gang of running a protection racked. When Ben confronted the group they humiliated him in their usual ways of humiliation: dumping garbage, firing paint-balls, and tossing stink bombs. Ben eventually learned that the real extortionist was a super-villain by the name of Powderkeg whom the Thing easily trounced in battle.; Ben then began atoning for his past life as a member of the Yancy Street Gang, working for Mr. Sheckerberg every Sunday until the debt he owed was paid off. Giving the Yancy Street Gang more opportunities to play pranks on the Thing, such as an evening where they sprayed him with a fire hose while he was waiting for a city bus. Having amassed a fortune Ben then decided to use his fortune to build a youth center on Yancy Street. The Yancy Streeters initially didn't like this and left a flaming bag of dog crap outside the construction site, tricking Ben into stamping it out. He was then attacked by the Trapster and Sandman who were hired by the Maggia crime family to stop construction. Ben stopped the two crooks with the help of Spider-Man and the youth center was eventually finished. When the gang saw that Ben had dedicated the center to his brother Daniel, the Yancy Street Gang declared the building off limits and under their protection.; Leadership over the Yancy Street Gang shifted over to a young man known only as Cee. During the super-hero Civil War that saw the government ordering the registration of super-heroes, the Yancy Street gang sided with Captain America's anti-registration group dubbed the Secret Avengers. When the Thing heard that a transport of prisoners was going to pass through Yancy Street, he called out the members of the gang and learned this. They refused to stand aside, despite Ben's instances that they might get hurt. The Yancy Streeters were unknowingly provided information by the Mad Thinker and the Puppet Master who were plotting trick pro and anti-registration heroes into a clash. When the attack happened Ben rushed to their rescue but he was too late to stop it. During the battle Cee was killed in the gunfire prompting the Thing to leave for Europe until the Civil War ended.; During a recent economic recession the Yancy Street Gang underwent yet another transformation. The gang soon became comprised of blue collar criminals who were former dot-com start-ups, ex-Wall Street traders, and failed hedge fund managers. This version of the Gang encountered Ben Grimm and the Human Torch during a period where Ben briefly reverted back to human form. Despite his lack of physical strength, Ben was still able to send the gang packing. A more generic version of the Gang took over after this. Some of its members actually having a decent relationship with the Thing. Three of the gang ended up playing a poker game with the Thing and the X-Man known as Gambit.; ===Future Foundation===; More recently, the Thing discovered that the Yancy Street Gang was using his youth center as a meeting place for a late night fight club. When the Thing tried to break up the fight club he was bowled over by the fleeing youths. This all proved to be an elaborate prank to embarrass the Thing on video and post it online to further humiliate the hero. When the Fantastic Four were about to embark on a mission through time and space, the Thing went to Yancy Street and demanded that the gang look after its people should anything go wrong and he not return. Ben's words proved at least partially right, as the Fantastic Four's year long mission -- which was only supposed to last four seconds in 616 time -- ended up lasting longer as the team ended up getting lost.; However prior to their disappearance, the Fantastic Four put together a replacement team to watch over the Future Foundation in the event things went wrong. This "FF" also consisted of pop-star Darla Deering who took to wearing a robotic exoskeleton resembling the body of the Thing. By this time the Gang had become more tech-savvy and incorporated hackers Douglas Ray, Jason Carter, and Carlos Hernandez into their group. The Yancy Street Gang took offense to Darla Deering "posing" as the Thing and sent one of their typical boobie-trapped parcels to her hotel room after a musical performance. She and her teammate Ant-Man were covered in whipped cream and sparkles while Yancy Streeters -- wearing Thing masks -- snapped photos of the pair before fleeing to Times Square. They were able to get away thanks to the New Year's Eve celebrations going on at the time, and managed to post the embarrassing photos online.; The Gang struck at Darla again during a private acoustic performance by hacking into the contest and ensuring that Yancy Street members were in attendance. During Darla's performance they pelted her with fruit and vegetables forcing her to flee. However Ant-Man stowed away on their bodies and learned the passwords to all their social media accounts and emailed all the information to their rivals in order to force them to stop harassing Deering. Humbled by this experience the Yancy Street hackers agreed to help hack into Dr. Doom's computer database foiling his plans to destroy the FF along with Kid Immortus and Annihilus.; ===All-New, All-Different Marvel===; Later, Lunella "Moon Girl" Lafayette built a device designed to uncover Kree technology and used it to find an Omni-Wave Projector hidden beneath the Brooklyn Bridge in the Financial District of Manhattan. Elsewhere, in the distant past of Earth-78411, a New Folk named Thorn-Teeth had also came into possession of an Omni-Wave Projector they called the Nightstone. When Coach Hrbek accidentally activated Lunella's device, it opened a portal across space and time from Dinosaur World to Earth-616, allowing the Killer-Folk to cross over into present day New York City. There Thorn-Teeth's tribe engaged in a turf war with the Yancy Street Gang, viciously beating several of them into submission, before claiming Yancy Street as their own territory.

+The Young Allies were reformed but on the Heroes Reborn world created by Franklin Richards called Counter-Earth. The Avengers and Fantastic Four return home to Earth-616 , but the planet suffers without the teams to protect it. One or two of Allies share code-names with heroes from the 616 team but have no relation to them. The team first comes in contact with the Redeemers, who were backed by the U.S. government and work with the Thunderbolts.; The Redeemers of Counter Earth was lead by Captain America but due to amnesia he had forgotten his time on the other Earth with the Allies Bucky. The battle was caused by the Allies when they created a fake chemical weapons scare in Latveria in an attempt to force the ruler of Counter Doctor Doom to distribute food and medicine in a fairer way. When the team left, Bucky was left shocked that Captain America would believe she would really use the weapon, which made Captain America lie to Dr. Doom about the canister being hidden.; The team some time later encountered the Thunderbolts themselves on their home world, while a rift was threatening to destroy both worlds. The Thunderbolts returned home but Jolt stayed behind to work with the team.; The recent events to take place on Counter-Earth involved the reality hopping team the Exiles who were there stop Proteus, who was in their teammate Morph's body. Proteus at first tricked the the Young Allies into fighting the Exiles. The Young Allies they later found out the truth when Proteus was enjoying torturing the Exiles. Proteus appeared to be winning, but two cosmic entities known as "O" and "Kay" tore Proteus away from the Exiles saying "that they've been waiting for him". They they then supply Proteus with an army of nuclear weapons.; Empress Dorma and Proteus soon meet, resulting in Proteus taking Dorma's crown and drying up Atlantis, and killing her and all her soldiers. The Exiles with the help of the Young Allies arrived at Atlantis. Proteus launchs the nuclear weapons but with luck, Kid Colt and Jolt stop the nuclear weapons without setting them off. Proteus believed he was still winning but as he still had Dorma's crown but Blink rigged it with a behavior modifier. The device made Proteus to believe he was Morph. The Exiles then teleport back to Panoptichron and sent the last of the nuclear weapons into space. The Young Allies then thanked the Exiles for saving their world and left for the next reality.

+Reality: Earth-1191
+History:
+The XUE (Xavier's Underground Enforcers) were originally based in an alternate future where the dream of Charles Xavier (a.k.a. Professor X) finally came to pass, as mutants and humans started to coexist in peace. Mutants played a major part in keeping this peace, establishing their own police force known as the Xavier Security Enforcers (XSE) who dealt with superpowered criminals with extreme prejudice. The XSE officers Shard, Archer, Fixx, and Greystone believed they could do even more for their fellow mutants and the world at large and formed the XUE. A mysterious mastermind behind these efforts remained hidden to the XUE.; The group eventually figured out that Trevor Fitzroy, the most notorious mutant criminal of their day, was travelling in time when he appeared to teleport. The XUE planned to use Fitzroy's abilities to travel into the past, but he refused to cooperate. Shard felt guilt over betraying her oath to uphold the law and withdrew from the XUE, but vowed to not exposed them to the XSE. The other members of the XUE sought another way to travel into the past.; When Shard was "reborn" in the past as a holographic life-form, the other XUE members found their ticket to the past. They used a psychic link Fixx had previously forged with Shard to follow her to the present day. The XUE were able to exist in the present as spirits possessing the deceased bodies of others.; Shard and her allies, the mutant team X-Factor, confronted the XUE, whose mission to affect present events to change the future were at odds with the peace-keeping nature of X-Factor. Shard took it upon herself to hunt down and stop her former allies, but eventually the two teams reconciled. Archer left to pursue his own activities, and Greystone was killed shortly after. Fixx remained alongside X-Factor and the XUE was disbanded.

+First appearance: Young Allies Vol 1 1
+Created by: Stan Lee; Charles Nicholas
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: The Young Allies were a group of patriotic young Americans banded together as part of Captain America's Sentinels of Liberty. Eventually a formal group was gathered by "Bucky" Barnes which included Patrick "Knuckles" O'Toole, Washington "Wash" Jones, Geoffry "Jeff" Vandergill, Henry "Tubby" Tinklebaum, and Toro.
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: Mobile
+History:
+=== World War II===; Following the formation of the Young Allies, one of their first adventures involved a battle against the forces of the Red Skull. Before the most feared Nazi soldier could capture them they would be aided by the timely arrival of Captain America and the Human Torch. The group later assisted Captain America in locating a secret German Bund in the United States that was intimidating German-American immigrants into supporting the Nazi cause. Thanks to the group's assistance, Captain America was able to shut the operation down.; In 1943, the Young Allies were sent to Hollywood California for a war bond drive. The rally was soon marred by an panic caused by Bucky and Toro's foe Lady Lotus, and they soon broke up the panic. The Allies were then ordered by the military to report to Democracy Pictures to participate in a film that was in support of the war. They were once more targeted by Lady Lotus who hypnotized actors to attack them, and then took Toro under her control. Capturing the team, Lady Lotus hypnotized the rest of the group and as part of her plan to take over the American west coast sent the group in a B-17 and P-40 to attack Muroc Army Airfield. However, Washington Jones snapped out of Lady Lotus' control and managed to help the others break free from her mind control. They would get the air fields participation in a ruse that made it appear their attack was a success. Pretending to still be under the control of Lady Lotus, the Young Allies got close enough to attack her. During the battle, Toro managed to knock a crystal that Lotus was using to boost her powers and it was subsequently swallowed up in the Earth. Lady Lotus then fled, vowing to get revenge against the Young Allies someday.; By 1944, the Young Allies had mostly split up. Bucky and Toro would be busy working with Captain America and the Human Torch, O'Toole and Jones would enlist in the military and serve in action, while Geoffrey and Henry would join the OSS and operate as spies trying to root out Nazi operatives still active in France following it's liberation by Allied Forces. Meeting each other in Paris, they would go into action one more time when Geoffrey would spot Hauptman Kleinschmidt and they would attempt to capture him. Easily gunning down his men, the Young Allies would chase the fleeing Kleinschmidt. When Bucky would hop aboard his speeding truck causing it to crash, killing Kleinschmidt. That was the last time the group would be together.; === After the War ===; After the war the Young Allies drifted apart but always stayed in touch. Geoffry would go on to work for Naval intelligence after the war, and then ultimately join the government agency which became the CIA. Official records state that he died heroically serving his country in Indochina (modern day Vietnam). The details of his death are unrevealed. Hank would leave government service and get into business and would live a successful life until one day in 1984 he was tragically struck by a bus.; Toro would survive well into the modern age, he would be put under the control of the Mad Thinker and set to attack his old wartime ally the Sub-Mariner. Toro would snap out of the Mad Thinker's control and would sacrifice his life to stop the Thinker.; Bucky would seemingly perish attempting to stop a drone plane launched by Baron Zemo on April 18, 1945. However, Bucky would be recovered by the Russians and converted into their assassin the Winter Soldier. He would be placed in suspended animation over the ensuing decades. Ultimately, Bucky would have his memories restored and would take on the title of Captain America following the seeming death of Steve Rogers.; Surviving well into the modern era would be both Washington and Patrick, both would marry and have children and grandchildren. After the war, Washington would reenlist into the Air-Force and see action in the Korean War. He would be retired at the rank of Colonel. O'Toole would continue in the army and make the rank of Sergeant ultimately becoming a drill instructor until he retired. In his retirement O'Toole would open a bar which he would run until he was too ill to do so and would leave his grandson to operate it.; Learning that Washington and Patrick were still alive, James would track them down to the hospital room where Percival were spending his final days. After reminiscing about the old days and catching up on lost time, the three surviving Young Allies would drink from a bottle of brandy that was being saved for the sole survivor of the group to enjoy. After their one drink Patrick would die peacefully in his sleep. Shortly thereafter Washington would die following a march at an military inaugural.; All the Young Allies have been put to rest in the Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia. It would be visited by James -- as Captain America -- who would dump out the remainder of the bottle of brandy on their grave in honor of his old friends. The grave also marks Bucky's supposed death in 1945, which James has chosen not to have correct as he feels that the Bucky he was during the war died a long time ago.; === Legacy ===; The Young Allies name would be used again when a group of youthful modern heroes would band together to fight the Bastards of Evil, a youthful gang of super-villains. After they succeeded in defeating the Bastards, Namor himself would suggest that the group name themselves after the old wartime youths.

These he would give to Shang-Chi, whose superior martial arts skill would insure the hands were safe. Tao would connect the hands with a chain which he would use as nunchucks. Sunfire would be assassinated, and his son (taking the name Sonfire) would assume his role as emperor of Asia and leader of Japan.

With the help of Strange and Clea, Xen destroyed Fin Fang Foom. The fate of Xen following this battle, is unknown, in light of the teams doubts towards their leader the future of the group is in question.

Araña and Nomad teamed up with El Toro, also teaching him that fatal violence is unacceptable.; Meanwhile, Gravity and Firestar learned from Electro that it was almost historically impossible that Aftershock was his daughter.; The confrontation between the Young Allies and the Bastards of Evil came to a head in a battle between the entirety of both teams, and the Bastards hidden leader, the Superior, revealing himself.; The Allies eventually defeated the Superior, thanks in part to certain members of the Bastards turning on him after the true nature of their powers were revealed.; In the end, Nomad began to suggest that the team formally unite under the banner of Young Alllies. Surprisingly, almost all the other Allies rejected this idea, and Toro may have not only because he didn't understand what she was saying.; It remains to be seen if the Allies shall remain an unofficial team, merely assisting each other in other capacities, or if they will eventually unite as a single force.

+The Yellowshirts are a militia that were active in the 1940s that sought to dismantle the United States government and install a totalitarian regime in its place. The group had a deep hatred of democracy and the rights and freedoms that were the inalienable rights of all Americans. Because they believed Americans considered their type cowardly, they adopted yellow as their color to turn it from a symbol of cowardice to on that was feared.; The organization apparently had cells all over the United States, including Chicago, Washington, D.C., and their primary operations being in New York City. They would prepare a sudden attack on major American cities, planting bombs in buildings and on the day of their invasion would set them off. In the ensuing confusion, the Yellowshirts would take over the cities, starting with taking over the newspaper offices in order to control the media and proliferate propaganda.; On the day of their attack, New York City would be decimated with a number of bombs placed in various buildings to explode. Soon New York was quickly captured, and the Yellowshirts had taken over the Consolidated News office to spread their message.; The Yellowshirts were almost successful if not for the costumed hero known as the Patriot who would fight his way and free the Consolidated News from Yellowshirt control.

They took the form of the former love interests of the real Young Avengers, and allied themselves with Mother, an interdimensional parasite the Young Avengers had recently faced, in order to get revenge on Loki.; The construct based on Leah tricked Hulkling into meeting her Young Avengers, who posed as a therapy group, and magically teleported him to New York, which was one of the conditions that allowed Mother to enter Earth-616. Leah contacted Loki, and informed him that Mother was planning on unleashing into the world all of the evil alternate reality version of the Young Avengers she had trapped.; The real Young Avengers arrived to Mother's dimension in order to rescue Hulkling and defeat their exes, and when Loki was cornered by Leah, he discovered she was the manifestation of his guilt.

+History:
+When the Multiverse was restored by Reed Richards, Earth-15513 became a distorted portion of time and space. Due to this universe having been the epicenter of the rebirth of the Multiverse, in it abounded a substance known as Iso-8, which originated as a byproduct of creation itself.; The Elders of the Universe arrived from their native universe and decided to stage a Contest of Champions for control of a concentrated ingot of Iso-8 known as the Iso-Sphere, with the Grandmaster and the Collector fighting for control, with the Grandmaster's team, being dubbed the Yellow Team. With each battle waged between the two teams, the winner Elder would acquire a percentage of the other's portion of the Iso-Sphere.; As contestants entered and left the game, the Collector remained with most of the Iso-Sphere, while the Grandmaster was left with a sliver, that made him barely powerful. During a final all-or-nothing match for the Iso-Sphere, Maestro and Punisher betrayed the people they had summoned and took them down. Maestro subsequently teleported to Grandmaster's HQ, and managed to defeat him due to the Grandmaster barely posessing any of the Iso-Sphere's power. The two portions of the Iso-Sphere desired to be with each other, prevented only by their owner's will. In a battle of minds, Maestro overtrumped the Collector's desire to possess the Iso-Sphere and acquired its entirety.; With entire control over the Iso-Sphere, Maestro casted out the Collector and the Grandmaster from the Battlerealm. Together with the Punisher of 2099, they imprisoned the Red and Yellow Teams and attempted to kill them one by one.

There they carried out a massacre, slaughtering many mutants including one of their main leaders, Charles Xavier.; During the autopsy of the murderers' bodies, the mutants discovered that they were bioengineered killers. In search of more answers about the attack Wolverine and Quentin Quire went to South Korea where in a shed belonging to XENO, they found a factory created to raise murderers, and Domino in a tank with half her skin ripped off.; Wolverine, Domino, and Quire managed to escape the factory, and in order to leave no trace, the group exploded the deposit, destroying any evidence of its existence.

+History:
+The Mighty XXI Legion of the Aquilonian Army was the best and bravest of the Aquilonian Empire.; The Mighty XXI was sent as a mounted vanguard of an Aquilonian invasion of the Pictish Wilderness, with its ranks filled by wild Hyperborean mercenaries, carrying a tribute of gold plates to the Pict king Grntar to buy his allegiance. They eventually left the grassy highlands of the frontier and entered the heart of the Pictish homeland, watched upon by Picts -though they were too big of a force for the Picts to threaten them- and were never to be seen again.; Within a weeks march of the land of Grntar, the Hyperboreans had devised a plan to split the tribute with the legionaries and flee to the sea, but most of the legionaries remained loyal and a battle ensued. The Legion broke into marauding bands who preyed upon each other until most were slain. The Hyperboreans made up most of the survivors and hauled the tribute towards the sea, only to be cut down by a war party of the Btoth Tribe, who brought the gold to their king, one of Aquilonia's worst enemies.; The only survivor, the wounded Tribune Galoric stumbled into the village d the Picts of chieftain Ptaka, where he was spared for his surgeon skills who allowed him to heal the deathly-ill Ptaka. Ptaka came to believe Galoric was using magic, and that he would live as long Galoric remained at his side.; The tale of that lost legion circulated, and several seasons later, a group of Legion mercenaries including Conan of Cimmeria and the Vanir Roth were offered to investigate them, or be hanged at down.; The party eventually found the remains of the XXI, but not the gold, before being captured by the Picts of Ptaka, and brought to the village where Galoric recounted them the fall of the XXI.; With the help of Galoric and his Picts, the party managed to kill the king of the Btoths, and steal the throne he had fashioned from the stolen gold. The party left with the throne, but all mercenaries were slain and the throne lost, leaving Conan to flee empty-handed, while Galoric decided to remain at Ptaka's side, feeling that without him, the chieftain would die from the the absence of Galoric's "magic".

The goddesses placed the candidates in suspended animation, with their superhuman potential (legacy of the First Host) awakened.; The candidates were Kiana from Alaska (11th century), Bridget O'Hare from Ireland (12th century), Mira from Ruk Island (15th century), Gregor Buhkarov from Russia (18th century), Chandra Ku from Africa (also 18th century), Catherine Moranis from Ottawa (19th century), Raoul Hernando from Colombia (also 19th century), Mark Cadmon from Chicago (1919), and Jawaharel Patel from India (1948). These 9 "Young Gods" were kept in suspended animation and kept watch over by the goddesses until the Fourth Host's arrival.; Heimdall and Kamorr were charged by Odin to gather the last three of the Young Gods, and found two thirds in Carter Dyam, an Israeli soldier, and Chi Lo, a Japanese fisherwoman. They brought them to New York while they sought out the last of the Young Gods.; Heimdall and Kamorr met Jason Kimball, and saved him from Baker, a man he owed money to. They brought Kimball away with them.; Heimdall and Kamorr brought Kimball, Dyam and Lo to the scene of a battle between Thor and Ego-Prime. When Ego-Prime attempted to destroy Thor and his comrades with a blast of energy, its energies were instead drained into Kimball, Dyam and Lo, unlocking their godly potential. They were then brought up into Asgard by Odin to prepare them for the coming of the Fourth Host.; Kimball, Dyam and Lo were sought out in Asgard by the Warriors Three, as the time for them to join the other Young Gods had arrived. Fafnir confronted the Warriors Three during their mission, but the three Young Gods saved them.; Each of the Young Gods were chosen among billions as the finest examples to embody the noblest of humanity’s achievements according to the perceptions of the Gods of Earth and the highest ideals humans can aspire to. These included Philosophy (Daydreamer), Spiritual Consciousness (Varua), Music (Highnote), Sailing (Sea Witch), Warriorship (Brightsword), Artistry (Genii), Medicine/Physicianship (Caduceus), Farming (Harvest), Science (Calculus), Hunting (Moonstalker), Poetry (Mindsinger), and Craftsmanship (Splice). The 12 assembled Young Gods were presented to the Celestials by Gaea, and Arishem the Judge determined that, based on them, humanity should endure. The Young Gods were all taken aboard the Celestial Mothership with the Fourth Host to be mentored in the lessons of godhood. The Young Gods were placed into the charges of Juniper and Katos. Juniper taught Sea Witch, Highnote, Daydreamer, Mindsinger, Brightsword, and Splice in the ways of offense, while Katos trained Varua, Genii, Moonstalker, Calculus, Harvest, and Caduceus in defense.; While the Young Gods were training aboard the mothership, they were spied upon by the High Evolutionary and Daydreamer became convinced that they should become involved to protect humanity from his intentions. Mindsinger, Daydreamer, Brightsword, Splice, Sea Witch, and Highnote all set off to Earth and fought Quint and the Gatherers alongside Spider-Man, until Calculus, Varua, Genii, Harvest, Moonstalker, and Caduceus came after them and the two sides fought each other, until Daydreamer accidentally harmed Calculus with her powers. After Caduceus healed Calculus, the Young Gods all stood down and returned to the mothership.; Mindsinger, Daydreamer, Harvest, Varua, Genii and Brightsword visited Jerusalem, Israel, to investigate a psychic presence Daydreamer had detected. They discovered an artificial creature powered by the emotions of the people there, but Varua, Harvest and Mindsinger were able to form a Uni-Mind and cut it off from the emotional energies, forcing it to consume itself and die. Daydreamer examined the creature's remains and determined that it had been sent by one of the gods from Earth's pantheons.; Calculus manipulated the Space Phantom, Avengers and Spider-Man into removing the threat of the "black cloud" (black insect swarm) from Earth, using mathematical probabilities to manipulate the outcome. Only Spider-Man was aware of Calculus' involvement.; When Sea Witch had a prophetic dream, Daydreamer and Varua determined that it was related to the encounter they had had in Israel before, and the Celestials permitted them to return to Earth and investigate. They split into three teams, visiting Sri Lanka, Ireland, and Central Bend, Wisconsin. The rogue god Nauda proved to have been the creature's master, and was seeking 3 mystical stones, two of which were found by the Young Gods in Central Bend and Ireland. Nauda captured the Sri Lanka team and forced the others to surrender themselves and the stones to him, but Daydreamer created illusionary stones instead. They were able to destroy Nauda by becoming a Uni-Mind, and Caduceus destroyed his stones.; Varua was captured by the Deviants and forced by a brain-mine to create a Uni-Mind to power Ghaur, but the Black Knight set her free from their control.; ===Return to Earth===; The Young Gods eventually went mad due to the Celestials' ambivalence towards them, and Varua led them back to Earth to force all of humanity into a single Panhuman Uni-Mind. Varua had convinced herself that the Celestials wanted the Young Gods to create a new Celestial (named Terran) by building a Celestial armor and housing humanity's collective consciousness inside it, while killing the human bodies left behind. Their crazed scheme was opposed by the Eternals, and Legba managed to make Varua doubt herself long enough for her to become vulnerable and then killed her, rendering the rest of the Young Gods catatonic and immobile. Their current status is unknown, but the Eternals discussed on whether to break the Young Gods down to their component atoms and take them back to Olympia for study or toss their bodies into the sea.

+Zombies (Earth-2149)
+Kind: team
+Page: Zombies (Earth-2149)
+Full name: Marvel Zombies
+Other aliases: Zombie Galacti; Zombies
+First appearance: Ultimate Fantastic Four Vol 1 21
+Created by: Mark Millar; Greg Land; Robert Kirkman; Sean Phillips
+Identity status: Public
+Species / origin: After a Zombie Contagion infects the Earth of this reality and spreads across far and wide, the planet is decimated by the zombified meta-humans. When Galactus appears, to consume the planet, the zombified Giant Man, Hulk, Iron Man, Luke Cage, Spider-Man, and Wolverine instead consume him and absorb some of his powers, taking his place as The Devourer.
+Reality: Earth-2149
+Base of operations: Generally mobile throughout the universe in search of suitable planets to consume.
+Transportation: The Zombie Galacti simply teleport to different parts of the universe.
+Trivia: Although most of the zombified versions of these super-heroes were first depicted in Ultimate Fantastic Four: Crossover by Mark Millar and Greg Land, they became this team when they consumed Galactus in Marvel Zombies Vol 1 by Robert Kirkman and Sean Phillips.; Despite all members of this team being zombified, only Venom and Vision were not infected, as they were not beings of flesh. Rather, they joined by proxy.; About 18 heroes have counterparts in both universes who were infected, those being Hulk, Wolverine, Doctor Octopus, Electro, Vulture, Mysterio, Blackbolt, Medusa, Lockjaw, Crystal, Triton, Gorgon, Karnak, Moon Knight, Super Skrull, Namor, Quicksilver, and Goliath.
+History:
+When a zombie contagion infected the Earth of this reality, the first wave of casualties were the Avengers as they investigated the first zombie, who had crashed into the streets of New York City. They became infected and subsequently began spreading the disease to other superhumans, killing and consuming nearly all life on Earth within twenty-four hours.; Days after the outbreak, the Silver Surfer arrived to herald the coming of Galactus. The zombified heroes and villains saw an increasingly rare opportunity to feed. In the ensuing battle, the Surfer managed to hold his own against the horde until the Hulk stepped in and bit his head off, killing the Herald. Luke Cage, Wolverine, and Colonel America began to feed on the body until the other zombies present gathered to feed as well. Unfortunately, before the rest could eat, Giant-Man appeared and took the decapitated Herald's body, sharing it between himself, Iron Man, and Spider-Man. Beast complained to Colonel America that none of the others got a bite, and when the ex-president gestured towards the mutant dismissively, he inadvertently killed him with Power Cosmic, revealing that he somehow obtained after eating the Silver Surfer.; The seven Zombies who devoured the Surfer decided that if other zombies tasted bad when they are fresh, perhaps they tasted better cooked. They proceeded to attack and kill the other zombified heroes around them. Unfortunately, they still tasted bad, leaving them in the same position as before: starving and without food.; When Galactus himself finally appeared, the remaining seven attacked him with their Power Cosmic, only to be routed by the Devourer of Worlds and forced to make a tactical withdrawal and come up with a plan elsewhere. Using materials gathered from the Sanctum Sanctorum, Castle Doomstadt, and the ruins of Wakanda, they constructed a mounted gun, which combined all of their individual Power Cosmic into a single, powerful beam of energy. Upon successfully constructing the weapon, the Zombies set off to find Galactus again, only to discover their zombified past enemies making a determined, but futile, effort to bring down the Devourer themselves.; It only took a few shots from their new super-weapon to bring down Galactus. As the cosmic giant lay there, the heroes and villains fought over which group was to consume the body. The heroes had an obvious upper hand with the Power Cosmic, killing the greater numbers of the villains with relative ease, but not before Red Skull managed to tear Colonel America's remaining brains out of his half-exposed cranium, killing him. It turned out that Galactus wasn't in fact dead; he was merely stunned. As he began to get up, the remaining zombies attacked and tore the Devourer apart, consuming his remains. They absorbed more Power Cosmic through eating him, and took his place as the Devourer of Worlds.; Five years later, the remaining members of the group, now wearing specialized suits made from the remains of Galactus' costume, teleported to another world to consume the inhabitants.; At some point, the Zombies arrived at the Skrull throneworld, preparing to devour the populace, only to encounter a version of the Fantastic Four from a parallel universe who had also just arrived, thanks to a Brass Frog, while fighting with a bug-like creature. They came upon a force-field protecting the planet's surface, evidenced by Spider-Man inadvertently slamming his face into it hard, to the amusement of his friends. Upon piercing it, they were set upon by missiles, which only served to slow them down rather than stop them.; Arriving on the surface, the bug-like creature that had been fighting the Fantastic Four was suddenly set upon by Iron Man and Luke Cage, to the horror and disbelief of the Four. Suddenly, the Brass Frog in the Black Panther's hand teleported himself and his teammates somewhere else just before Hulk could get to them.; Turning their attention back to the rest of the city, the Zombies continued eating whatever Skrulls they could sink their teeth into. They soon squared off with the Skrull armada attacking them from the air, but the skirmish was brief as the zombies easily breached the warships' hulls and ate every single Skrull inside them.; Meanwhile, the Fantastic Four, having been teleported to a cave somewhere else and briefly squared off with a group of Skrulls possessing the abilities of this reality's original Fantastic Four, made an uneasy alliance with the Skrull military forces to try and fend off the horde. However, they were interrupted by the unexpected arrival of Luke Cage, who had been hurled into the command centre by the Hulk, who was annoyed at an earlier remark from the ex-Hero for Hire. Cage attacked the Skrulls, who themselves then came to believe that the human Fantastic Four were in league with the zombies and turned on them, only to be defeated. Eventually confronting Luke, the Four attempted to convince Luke that they were cured versions of his friends from back home, but he called their bluff. More, he deduced that they were from a parallel universe. He then demanded the device the Four used to arrive in this world, but they and their Skrull counterparts instead attacked him.; Back in the city, while the rest of the zombies were feasting, they discovered the bug-like creature they had attacked before, now zombified and eating its own share of Skrulls. Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Hulk attempted to shoo it away from their feed, but the creature knocked them through several buildings into one sheltering a number of Skrulls. Initially wanting a rematch with the creature, the trio's hunger took precedence and they resumed their Skrull meal.; As the two Fantastic Four teams and the remaining Skrulls escaped from the command centre, Cage followed. The Skrull Four's commander ordered them to remain behind to hold off the one-armed zombie, requesting the human Four's aid in saving what was left of the planet.; After infecting the Skrull Four during their fight, Luke returned to his friends. Iron Man berated him over violating their agreement that none of them would go off and feed solo, which Luke dismissed. Enraged, Iron Man attempted to kill his teammate, only to be sent flying halfway across the city by a punch from Luke. The latter then explained to the others his discovery of how the human Fantastic Four they'd met earlier were from an alternate, uninfected Earth, and suggested that they confront and demand their teleportation device from them as to travel to their world and finally feast on human flesh once again, to the group's joy.; On board the ship, the Skrulls betrayed the human Fantastic Four once again, this time for their Brass Frog to escape from their doomed world. Storm then used her powers to disable the power running the ship, causing it to crash-land. They were then set upon by the zombified Skrull Four. In the ensuing battle, the Skrull Torch became impaled on a piece of debris and soaked with rain to prevent him from rejoining the battle by Storm, the Thing Skrull became encased in molten metal from the ship's wreckage when Johnny Storm melted a portion of the hull which was then frozen by Storm, and the Invisible Skrull was decapitated and her head destroyed when she attempted to infect Johnny. The Elastic Skrull proved to be the most difficult one to kill. In the scuffle, a surviving Skrull officer attempted to intervene and kill the shape-shifter, only to be infected himself, prompting Johnny to incinerate both. The Skrull Torch attempted to attack the Fantastic Four again, only to be destroyed by a blast of Power Cosmic from Luke Cage as the Galacti arrived.; Giant-Man demanded the Fantastic Four's Brass Frog in exchange for their lives, which the Human Torch called his bluff over. Before the Zombies could do anything else, Spider-Man briefly regained his senses and began arguing with his teammates on how far they'd fallen, giving the Fantastic Four enough time to teleport away thanks to the Brass Frog, to the annoyance of the other Zombies.; As they started feasting on the remaining Skrull corpses in the room, Wolverine decided to look around on his own for a snack, only to be seemingly confronted by the Titan Thanos and Mistress Death. Thanos admitted admiration for the Zombies' accomplishing what he, himself, could not: death and destruction on an unimaginable scale across the universe. He then offered the zombies a gift in the form of Death's embrace. While the other Zombies refused the offer, the repentant Spider-Man submitted, dropping before Thanos' and Death's feet as he awaited for them to kill him. However, their delay in killing the web-slinger proved revealed that the Thanos and Death who were confronting them were really Skrulls in disguise. The two Skrulls attempted to bargain for their lives before being promptly killed.; While they ate, Iron Man contemplated a point brought up by the Thanos and Death impostors; the idea of a breeding program they could use to ensure an indefinite supply of food. However, Hulk became annoyed with their small-talk and demanded "roughage," having grown tired of devouring aliens across the universe. His friends were initially confused, until Hulk picked up a handful of soil, which made them realize that they hadn't explored the "planet-eating" aspect of their powers. They decided to try it out, and just as the Fantastic Four escaped from their universe, the planet exploded. Cage then declared satisfaction with their meal of an entire celestial body.; Forty years after leaving Earth, the cosmic powered-zombies have systematically devoured all other life in the universe, as well as infecting the real Thanos, the mutant Phoenix, Shi'ar warrior Gladiator, and former Herald of Galactus Firelord with the zombie plague. With nothing else left to eat, and with their hunger starting to set in again, Giant-Man decided to return to Earth and rebuild the interdimensional portal that Magneto destroyed. In route to Earth, they discovered and feasted on Ego the Living Planet to briefly ease their hunger.; On Earth, an elderly Black Panther ruled the surviving humans in New Wakanda, located in the ruins of New York City. He faced a looming population crisis, due to an abundant lack of women in the community, and potential competition for leadership with the Acolytes, led by the late Fabian Cortez's son, Malcolm.; One day, while venturing into the ruins of the city, T'Challa's grandson, K'Shamba, accidentally discovered the severed head of Hawkeye, who had gone mad and amnesiac from decades of being alone and unable to move following his being decapitated during the final battle with Magneto. Initially uncertain about trusting the bodyless Avenger, K'Shamba picked Hawkeye up and carried him home, presenting him to T'Challa and Forge. Forge subsequently placed Hawkeye in one of the Wasp's old bodies, after she herself was decapitated by Giant-Man.; Later that same evening, one of Cortez's assassins attacked T'Challa in his sleep and fatally wounded him, but the monarch was saved from death by the intervening Wasp when she infected him, transforming him into a zombie. After devouring the assassin, the two isolated themselves in a specialized room in order to manage their hunger, while the cosmic zombies continued their approach to Earth.; Cortez decided to have the Panther executed, while Wasp and Hawkeye were to be exterminated. However, before he could do so, the settlement was met with the arrival of the returning Zombies, who were surprised to see still-living humans on the planet's surface. Giant-Man suggested that they start a "breeding program" to create more human food and prevent the supply shortage they encountered before, but Spider-Man and Luke Cage, whose hungers had since faded enough to allow them to think rationally, switched sides, knowing that their previous actions were wrong. During the battle, Hulk, who had consumed a few humans already, reverted to Bruce Banner and was captured.; After killing Gladiator, the human resistance drove off the remaining zombies and restored Luke Cage and Spider-Man's lost limbs with cybernetics. Spider-Man then revealed that the other Zombies sought the dimensional teleporter, which Forge revealed he had stored in their base. Knowing that the Zombies would not depart without the device, the heroes prepared for the next battle. At the same time, Giant-Man's group realized the same when they returned to the Baxter Building and found that it wasn't there.; It was then revealed that the Black Panther's deceased son, T'Channa, had been revived with a portion of Colonel America's brain inside of him by Forge and Reynolds, a scientist and friend of T'Challa. Enraged at this betrayal, T'Challa attacked both of them, but was prevented from killing either by his resurrected son. After a brief scuffle amongst the heroes, T'Challa calmed down and agreed to set aside his grievences with Reynolds and Forge, but made it clear he did not forgive either of them for what they had done.; When Giant-Man's group returned to New Wakanda, T'Challa made an offer; his group would turn over the device in exchange for sparing New Wakanda's human population. When Giant-Man and Iron Man appeared to agree with this deal, the force field was lowered, only for T'Challa's group to attack Giant-Man's and order that the force field immediately be brought back online. Unfortunately, when it was, Iron Man was behind the force field and proceeded to breach the compound, encountering Forge, T'Channa, and several Acolytes in the process. Meanwhile, Banner, whose sedative had worn off, escaped his restraints and attacked Reynolds in the control center, attempting to eat him to delay another transformation into the Hulk, only to inadvertently deactivate the force field again and allow Giant-Man's faction to enter the compound. Just as they gained the upper hand and prepared to feast on the remaining humans, Giant-Man realized that his hunger was gone.; In a moment of clarity, Giant-Man convinced his allies that their hunger was, in fact, gone. While he was successful, they were all interrupted by the sudden arrival of the Hulk in his worst imaginable state: both enraged AND hungry. In the ensuing battle, Hulk destroyed Phoenix, Firelord, Hawkeye and Iron Man as they attempted to stop him from eating the remaining humans. Reynolds, having fallen in love with Wasp and believing her to be dead in the skirmish, offered himself to be devoured by the Hulk to stop the beast's rampage. After consuming Reynolds, Hulk reverted back to Banner, who begged to be killed to prevent the Hulk from ever returning; Spider-Man, Giant-Man, and Wolverine obliged and disintegrated his head.; As the Zombies helped rebuild New Wakanda, Wasp's head was found in the rubble. Three weeks later, a funeral was held to honor and memorialize their victims and fallen allies. A meeting was held later to address New Wakanda's supply and population crises. Cortez revealed that he had deliberately sabotaged the machine after Forge found it, the reason the latter could never bet it to work. He then declared that he had no intention of repopulating the Earth, preferring a community that was smaller and easier to control. He used the teleporter to transport away the last of the zombies, intending to seize power for himself with no one to stop him.; In Earth-Z, the new reality they were teletransported to, they all appeared in separate locations and their hunger returned. Giant-Man, who appeared at the Blue Area of the Moon, decided to use Uatu's technology to get to other dimensions after devouring him. However, all the other Zombies tried to oppose him (except for Wolverine, who was killed by his counterpart). In the end, they were all killed, except for Spider-Man, who was leading the New Avengers while Hank lead the Avengers. Spider-Man revealed he infused Earth-Z's Sandman with Stark's nanobots that consume damaged flesh and multiply on their own. As all the Zombies were consumed by the nanobots, Spider-Man thanked Sandman for avenging Aunt May and Mary Jane's deaths. Uatu reappeared and revealed he couldn't be devoured or consumed, as the Watchers had transferred their consciousnesses into pure energy forms long ago. By observing these events, he came up with the idea to send the Zombie Sentry, the last zombie remaining, back in time to Earth-2149 so this infection could start over, effectively containing it between the two realities in a perpetual causality loop and thus sparing the rest of the Multiverse from infection.

+Young X-Men (Earth-616)
+Kind: team
+Page: Young X-Men (Earth-616)
+Full name: Young X-Men
+First appearance: Young X-Men Vol 1 1
+Created by: Marc Guggenheim; Yanick Paquette; Rafa Sandoval
+Identity status: Secret
+Species / origin: Young mutants and former students of Xavier Institute organized into a new team
+Reality: Earth-616
+Base of operations: formerly Utopia; Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, California; Graymalkin Industries, San Francisco, California; Danger Cave, Westchester County, New York
+Transportation: X-Jet(s)
+Notes: It is notable that the first story arc of Young Men echoes a narrative pattern first established with the inception of the New Mutants in their eponymous graphic novel, which was also echoed in the first story arc of New Mutants Vol 2 volume 2, which gave rise to the New X-Men series that is the immediate antecedent for Young Men. All three of these storylines deal with the assembly of a new team of mutants, feature the cyborg Donald Pierce as the villain, and have one member of the team (Cannonball, Elixir and Ink, in the respective stories) that initially works for Pierce before switching sides and joining the new team. This story pattern was also followed, to some extent, in the New X-Men arc that appeared within the House of M timeline. Further underscoring this continuity is the appearance of many of the original New Mutants in all three stories: as the protagonists in the New Mutants graphic novel, as teachers and mentors to the "new" New Mutants Vol 2 volume 2 series, and as the antagonists, the ersatz Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, in the arc in Young X-Men.; Young Men ended with its final issue, Young X-Men Vol 1 12, released in March 2009. It was replaced by a new New Mutants Vol 3 series.; One of the criticisms against Young X-Men Vol 1 was the discovery of three previously unknown mutants (namely Graymalkin, Cipher & Leon Nunez) shortly after the events of Decimation when 98% of the world's mutant population was depowered.; In principle, the island nations of Utopia and Genosha bare a striking resemblance to the sovereign island nation of Xaviera depicted in dystonian future of the End of Days timeline. Xaviera appears in Young X-Men Vol 1 11. The sovereign island nation of Xaviera was established at an undetermined time in the future by U.N. General Assembly Resolution GSXM1 - probably a reference to Giant-Size X-Men Vol 1 1.; Because of the series' cancellation, it still has not been revealed what if any effects Ink's resurrection of Dust had on her soul. Also, the fates Ink and Leon Nunez remain unrevealed. Presumably they remain in catatonic states in the care of the X-Men.; Also see End of Days timeline for information about the alternate future seen in Young X-Men Vol 1 11-12.
+Trivia: On the cover of Young X-Men Vol 1 1, Ink is bald, even though he has hair inside the book.
+History:
+===Final Genesis===; After the X-Men were disbanded, Donald Pierce disguised himself as Cyclops and recruited a new team of several young mutants: Eric Gitter (Ink) as well as former students Sooraya Qadir (Dust), Nicholas Gleason (Wolf Cub) and Santo Vaccarro (Rockslide). Santo, however, refused to join unless "Cyclops" would accept Ruth Aldine (Blindfold), whom he hadn't originally planned to recruit, to be on the team as well.; Blindfold had previously seen a vision of this team of young X-Men facing off against Donald Pierce, a deadly old foe of the X-Men and former member of the Hellfire Club, during which one of the members was murdered.; After assembling the Young X-Men in the Danger Cave, "Cyclops" gave them their costumes and told them that he was reforming the X-Men, beginning with perhaps the last generation of mutants. Their first mission would be to take down what he claimed to be the new incarnation of the Brotherhood of Mutants, under the control of Sunspot (who was Lord Imperial of the Hellfire Club at the time) and made up of his friends and former teammates, Cannonball, Magma, and Dani Moonstar.; After they failed in training sessions against Brotherhood simulacra, "Cyclops" decided to send them after Moonstar and Magma in small teams, each with a specific target. When surprise-attacked by Dust, Rockslide and Wolf Cub in Los Angeles, Magma responded violently, destroying their Blackbird. They recovered from their crash and attacked Magma, who was unprepared but much more experienced. She turned Dust into glass and Rockslide into a pile of rocks. Distracted by a reformed Rockslide, she was eviscerated by Wolf Cub, knocking her out but leaving Wolf Cub with a nasty burn.; In the Colorado Rockies, Moonstar proved herself a match to the young mutants Blindfold and Ink despite her lack of powers. However, she was taken down by an unseen force that Blindfold seemed to know. Carrying the unconscious Moonstar back to their Blackbird, Ink knocked Blindfold unconscious and delivered her to Donald Pierce. When Pierce questioned him about why they weren't dead, Ink responded that he was a mercenary, not a killer. Graymalkin, who had been living in shadows a the site of the former X-Mansion, watched the conversation from a distance, apparently talking to himself when he said "Very well. I'll kill the Cyclops."; Ink shaved his head and acquired a lightning bolt tattoo made by mutant tattoo artist Leon Nunez on his temples, granting him telepathy. Ink, Rockslide and Wolf Cub then led an attack on the Hellfire Club to fight Cannonball and Sunspot. Wolf Cub managed to wound Sunspot, angering Cannonball. At the same time, Graymalkin attacked Cyclops/Pierce back at the Danger Cave, forcing him to reveal his true identity. Once both teams learned the truth, they went after Pierce, but arrived too late to save Wolf Cub, who turned out to be the then-unknown teammate who was killed in Blindfold's vision.; ===Book Of Revelations===; After the death of Wolf Cub and the arrest of Pierce by the X-Men, the real Cyclops brought the Young X-Men to the new X-Men base, Graymalkin Industries in Marin Headlands of San Francisco, California. Cyclops asked Sunspot and Moonstar to counsel and lead the Young X-Men. They both accepted and with help from Nightcrawler they found a new base in a local Episcopal Church.; Tensions were high at the time, especially with Rockslide. Blindfold decided to leave the team, since she was no great contribution on the battlefield. Meanwhile, Moonstar asked Anole, also a former member of New X-Men, to join the new team.; After performing a genetic test on Graymalkin, Beast discovered that he was a mutant over 200 years old, although he physically appeared to be only about seventeen and that he was an distant relative of Professor Charles Xavier, hence how his last name was the same as the street that the Xavier Institute was built on. Beast analyzed the boy's powers but couldn't determine what could have caused him to be buried alive. Anole comforted Graymalkin and helped him with coming to terms with his homosexuality.; During their next adventure, Ink discovered he was not a mutant and briefly left the team. The rest went to La Jolla, California to investigate the Y-Men, who proved to be more than the Young X-Men anticipated. Meanwhile, Cipher revealed herself to Ink to help his teammates against the Y-Men. After getting two new tattoos and accompanying powers (Caduceus symbol & Phoenix symbol) from Leon Nunez, Ink and Cipher hurried to the Young X-Men's aid. Ink used his new powers to heal Dani Moonstar's wounds and depowered all the Y-Men. Despite his not being a mutant, Cyclops asked Ink to stay on the team partly because he did not want someone with Phoenix Force-like powers running around without supervision. Because of the strain of granting Ink Phoenix Force-like powers, Leon Nunez was left in a catatonic state in the infirmary.; Since his arrest and her own near death experience, Dust continued visiting Donald Pierce in Cell Block X and later the X-Brig. It was Pierce who revealed Ink as a non-mutant and confirmed that Dust was in fact dying because of Magma's melting her into a glass form. Beast later also confirmed Dust's doomed state. Dust eventually attempted to assist Pierce in escaping because he promised to heal her. During his escape, Dust seemingly died. Later she was brought back to life by Ink who used his Phoenix Force-like powers again. Dust appeared completely healed, but the episode left Ink comatose. As noted by Beast his brain activity was subdued as if it had been overcharged.; After the newly resurrected Dust was reunited with her teammates, Moonstar entered announcing the Neo had returned and were advancing on San Francisco. The Young X-Men battled the Neo on the Golden Gate Bridge.

+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+This version of Zodiac seemed driven by pursuing personal wealth through performing mercenary actions and acts of terrorism. The full origins and details behind the new Zodiac remain unrevealed. Their leader, another man calling himself Scorpio, wielded a weapon reminiscent of the original Zodiac Key, but its origins remain unrevealed as well. Scorpio and his team were guided by the old woman known only as Ecliptic, who had the ability to foretell the future.; In the Zodiac's first known mission in which they were hired by the Canadian government's Department H to fight the latest incarnation of their sponsored team, Alpha Flight. In doing so, Scorpio led the group in framing a militant special interest group. Alpha Flight discovered the truth and confronted the Zodiac. During the battle, the Zodiac's Virgo disappeared while fighting the Flight's Murmur. Enraged, Scorpio ordered he team to kidnap the Flight's Madison Jeffries before escaping, and he went on to sever ties with Clarke, his contact with the Canadian government. The Zodiac only returned to Department H in order to steal the powerful Nth Projector, a device capable of allowing interdimensional travel, although the device was stolen from the Zodiac in turn by Imus Champion.; This version of the Zodiac was later confronted by the mercenary team Weapon X, who was intent on recruiting Madison Jeffries for themselves. Jeffries had since been brainwashed into serving the Zodiac as their version of Gemini. The members of Weapon X kidnapped Madison Jeffries, killing the other members of the Zodiac.

+History:
+===Formation and Structure===; The Zodiac Cartel was founded by New York businessman and criminal Cornelius van Lunt. The Zodiac's ultimate goal was that of world economic and political domination. An ardent believer in astrology, van Lunt amassed a fortune under the guidance of his personal astrologer. Van Lunt invested that fortune in the formation and outfitting of a nationwide criminal network, including a hand-picked elite group of leaders that served as the Zodiac. Van Lunt was originally the only member of the Zodiac who knew the true identities of all the other leaders, and he long concealed his own identity beneath his zodiacal persona of Taurus.; Each of the twelve leaders of Zodiac was born under the sign of the zodiac after whom he or she was named, and was based in a different American city. None of the twelve leaders possessed superhuman powers, but most of them employed technology to give themselves special capabilities. Generally, the Zodiac leaders each operated independently in the city that was his or her base of operations, but they assembled for matters of collective importance. Whenever there was a vacancy in Zodiac's leadership, either by death or expulsion, the remaining members accepted applications of membership from criminals who met certain qualifications, chief among which is having been born under the zodiacal sign of the vacancy. Traditionally, all of the Zodiac leaders were male, except for Virgo.; ===Criminal Activities===; The first recorded activity an original Zodiac member was the unsuccessful attempt of the original Scorpio to assassinate Nick Fury. Scorpio wielded an ankh-shaped extra-dimensional power object called the Zodiac Key, which could fire energy bolts and teleport people and objects, even from one dimension to another. A fact known only to Nick Fury was that Scorpio was actually a rogue Life Model Decoy of his brother, Jake.; When another of Scorpio's attacks on Nick Fury failed, S.H.I.E.L.D. confiscated the Zodiac Key and presumed him dead. A short time later, Nick Fury faked his own death at the hands of Hydra, and he assumed the role of the second Scorpio in order to infiltrate the Zodiac, whose members were unaware of Jacob Fury's apparent demise. At this time, Zodiac was led by Aries, whose term of leadership under the rules by which Zodiac then operated, was much longer than a single month. In the guise of Scorpio, Fury captured the hero team Avengers and summoned the rest of the Zodiac to their mansion headquarters, planning to free the Avengers and have them help him capture the other eleven members. Unfortunately, the plan failed, although neither Fury nor the Avengers were seriously harmed, and the Zodiac escaped, with Aries taking possession of the Zodiac Key.; Sometime later, Aries, leading a small army, succeeded in capturing Manhattan Island and sealing it off from the rest of the world with a force field. This ransom attempt was thwarted by the Avengers and the hero Daredevil. Aries died in an explosion which apparently destroyed the Key. The Key was rediscovered, however, and used by the Zodiac in another crime scheme. In confronting various members of the Zodiac, Nick Fury, Daredevil, and Iron Man found themselves, along with Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, and Madame Masque, transported with the Key to the dimension from which it originated. The people were returned to Earth, but the Key was left behind.; Van Lunt, as Taurus, assumed leadership of the Zodiac, and he recruited a new Aries and a new Scorpio. Van Lunt later embarked upon a scheme to display Zodiac's power with a so-called "Star-Blazer" device, powered by some manner of "stellar energy," to kill all the people living in Manhattan born under the sign of Gemini. However, the Avengers managed to destroy the Star-Blazer. An internal power struggle then occurred in which six of the Zodiac leaders turned against van Lunt, who induced the rebellious leaders and the Avengers into a death trap. But they survived, and the Avengers succeeded in defeating and capturing van Lunt, the Zodiac leaders loyal to him, and the dissident Zodiac leaders. The charges brought against the Zodiac leaders by the Avengers put them behind bars, but most of them have had their sentences commuted and returned to their home bases.; Shortly after the capture of the Zodiac leaders by the Avengers, Darren Bentley, the original Aquarius, learned that he was dying and made a deal with the demon Slifer that enabled Bentley to take on the appearance and attributes of any of the other twelve Zodiac members. Aquarius was opposed by Ghost Rider, and ultimately died when the demon Slifer claimed his life and soul as payment. The second Aries also died after being used as a host for the ionic energies of Lucifer.; Months later, the Jake Fury LMD, who had in fact not died in his last defeat, rediscovered the Zodiac Key, which had been sent back to Earth. Fury again assumed the role of Scorpio, but he did not rejoin Zodiac, as his place had since been taken by a new Scorpio, Jacques LaPoint. Jacob Fury used the Zodiac Key as an energy source for his "Theater of Genetics." In this laboratory he created eleven sophisticated Life Model Decoys to serve as members of his own new Zodiac organization. Scorpio's efforts were opposed by Moon Knight and the Defenders, however, leading to the destruction of several Zodiac LMDs and Scorpio's apparent suicide.; The human Zodiac organization, in the meantime, was greatly weakened in power by the capture and imprisonment of its leaders, even when most of them regained their freedom. Van Lunt, as Taurus, planned to compete in certain criminal activities with one or possibly more of the New York City-based families of the criminal organization called the Maggia. Learning of van Lunt's intentions, the Maggia somehow acquired the service of the LMD Taurus and sent it to wreak destruction at van Lunt's new base of operations. Unable to defend himself against the android, van Lunt contacted James Rhodes, then secretly operating as the hero Iron Man, to defend van Lunt's property. Although Rhodes managed to defeat the android, thereby saving his life, van Lunt regarded Iron Man as a threat to Zodiac's future plans. Deducing Rhodes' identity of Iron Man, van Lunt contacted Aries and Aquarius and assigned them to attempt to assassinate Rhodes. They failed, however, and were captured. Tony Stark alerted S.H.I.E.L.D. to the Zodiac's renewed criminal activity, but the human Zodiac remained largely out of sight in the subsequent months and years.; After hearing that the Zodiac LMDs had resurfaced in battle with the Avengers, Cancer called a meeting of the Cartel to discuss what to do with their doppelgängers. Unfortunately for the humans, the Jake Fury LMD had replaced their Scorpio, and led his Zodiac LMDs in the slaughter of the remaining human Zodiac Cartel members. Taurus survived and escaped to warn the Avengers, and helped them pursue the LMDs for a time. When he betrayed his word to the Avengers, however, Taurus was hunted down by Moon Knight and eventually died in a plane crash.; The only known survivor of the human Zodiac is Libra, who went on to assist Kang and the Supreme Intelligence during the Destiny War.; ==Original Membership==; Taurus (Cornelius van Lunt); Scorpio (Jake Fury); Aquarius (Darren Bentley); Aries (Marcus Lassiter); Cancer (Jack Kleveno); Capricorn (Willard Weir); Gemini (Joshua Link); Leo (Daniel Radford); Libra (Gustav Brandt); Pisces (Noah Perricone); Sagittarius (Harlan Vargas); Virgo (Elaine McLaughlin); ===Later Recruits===; Aquarius (Zachary Drebb); Aries (Grover Raymond); Aries (Oscar Gordon); Scorpio (Jacques LaPoint)

+History:
+When a Life Model Decoy of Jake Fury became the criminal Scorpio, he tried to create his own version of the criminal group Zodiac. This one, however, was made up of LMDs like himself. Scorpio searched for Kyle Richmond so that he could ransom him to gain money, but this brought him into conflict with the superhero team the Defenders. The Defenders found Scorpio's base and battled his Zodiac with the help of Moon Knight. By the end of the battle, nearly all of this Zodiac was destroyed, except for Gemini, who aided the Defenders, and Libra, who left before the fight ended.; Under mysterious circumstances, another full contingent of android LMD Zodiac members were created, some of them resembling the earlier team while others did not. This team was recruited by Quicksilver in a scheme to discredit his former teammates the Avengers. The team split into three groups and battled the Avengers in different locations alongside Quicksilver, but were defeated by the heroes.; Later Scorpio's Zodiac killed all the members of the original Zodiac Cartel, except for Libra (Gustav Brandt) and Taurus (Cornelius van Lunt); after the final battle with the West Coast Avengers, the Zodiac members were deactivated.

+Transportation: Masters of Evil's plane; formerly Enchantress' teleportation
+Trivia: The Young Masters were all candidates on Steve Rogers' list of supervillains to enroll in Luke Cage's Thunderbolts roster.
+History:
+===Origin===; Originally assembled by Coat of Arms as an examination of superheroism art project. The group was largely motivated by Melter's desire to be real heroes, but hindered significantly by unclear and conflicting ideals including Executioner's Punisher-style ruthlessness, Big Zero's racism and violent tendencies, Egghead's psychopathy and hedonism, and Coat of Arm's distorted view of ethics. Only Melter and Enchantress showed much interest in actual altruistic heroism.; ===Dark Reign===; The team began calling themselves the "Young Avengers", but were only active as superheroes a short time before being confronted by the real Young Avengers. The original Young Avengers offered the possibility of recruitment after individually vetting each member. The Young Avengers gave mixed reviews; membership was only offered to Coat of Arms and Enchantress, leaving the rest of the team under Melter's leadership but still under the supervision of the Young Avengers. However, Wiccan learned about Enchantress' origins and links to Loki, and she was expelled from the Young Avengers Headquarters shortly after arriving.; Unhappy with the Young Avengers' decision, the team decided to take on the mantle and expectations of the Young Master, and Melter contacted Norman Osborn to gain his support and the backing of his Avengers. When the Young Avengers returned to the Invisible Manor, they were unexpectedly confronted by the Dark Avengers. Some members of the Young Masters began showing doubts about their stance and began aiding the Young Avengers. The battle ended when the combined magic of Coat of Arms, Enchantress, and Wiccan was used to banish Sentry. The Young Masters then disappeared after Enchantress teleported them out.; The Young Masters continued to lay low after the Siege of Asgard and the fall of Norman Osborn. The team was also compromised when Enchantress became weak and ill after the death of Loki.; Melter eventually departed for unknown reasons. Coat of Arms, Big Zero and Enchantress were eventually recruited to Briggs Chemical LLC.; ===Vengeance===; Following the departure of several members, Egghead and Executioner received a mysterious new benefactor and carried out a recruitment drive for new members, bringing in Mako, Black Knight, and Radioactive Kid.; Taking a new headquarters at an abandoned Hydra base in Pennsylvania purchased from Devlin DeAngelo, the team decided to hunt down and verify the death of Bullseye. Finding his corpse, the group was attacked and defeated by Lady Bullseye.; They then attempted to murder Doctor Octopus, but were stopped by the Teen Brigade. In the aftermath, the Black Knight deserted. She ended up sleeping with Ultimate Nullifier, and gave him a S.H.I.E.L.D. file leaked to the group by their benefactor.; After attempting, and failing, to recruit the reborn Kid Loki, the Masters planned a final assassination: Kristoff Vernard the regent of Latveria.; ===Bagalia===; The Young Masters then acted under the Masters of Evil in Bagalia and are supervised by Constrictor. Most younger villains seem to have been recruited along with all former members. Occasionally they are dispensed to perform some of the Masters of Evil's dirty work, but they primarily relax and play inside their base, the Snakepit, in Bagalia.; ==Young Masters==; Melter (Chris Colchiss) - the team leader with the mutant ability to liquify any object.; Executioner (Danny DuBois) – an expert marksman with no mercy, and the son of Princess Python.; Egghead - a psychopathic robot who wants to understand humanity.; Coat of Arms (Lisa Molinari) - a misunderstood artist powered by the magical Coat of Tiboro.; Enchantress (Sylvie Lushton) - an young girl from Broxton, Oklahoma claiming to have Asgardian heritage.

+History:
+A pair of wise-cracking brothers from Mexico, they are professional luchadores as well as guns for hire. During their mercenary missions they often bicker amongst each other like young siblings often do. The two seem to have at least a minor addiction to the social networking site Facebook, and have mentioned it on several occasions. They fight with a combination of Mexican wrestling moves, as well as firearms ranging from machine guns to RPGs.; During real live fights they will tag each other in and out of battle as if they were in a wrestling ring, much to the surprise of Moon Knight, one of their first superhero opponents. When they were double-crossed by their employer, they decided to help Moon Knight by guarding Carmen Alcantara, the woman he was protecting from her father. While Moon Knight was battling her father, they stole Alcantara's hoard of cash and gave enough to Moon Knight to allow him to restart his mission in the States.; Recently, the Zapata Brothers took on a mercenary job in which they got involved with an idol of theirs: Deadpool. Upon their first meeting, the Brothers knocked out the Merc with a Mouth in a graveyard. When Deadpool tracked them down, they sought reconciliation and offered him a team-up. After many explosions and gunshots, the trio sat back and relaxed, as they had, according to Wilson, begun a beautiful new friendship.

When Maria Hill activated the Helicarrier's self-destruct in an attempt to kill Thanos, the Zodiac's master left them to die in the explosion. Cancer was later apprehended and interrogated by the Avengers in order to find out Thanos' plan. The fate of the other five surviving members is unknown.

+Trivia: Although Leonardo da Vinci wanted the knowledge of the Great Wheel to be exclusive to its members, Leviathan revealed it to Leviathan agents such as Seth Waters, and the Hydra Captain America mentioned the Great Wheel in his speech to Hydra at the start of the Secret Empire event.
+History:
+In 1961, eleven of the most experienced espionage leaders in the world were contacted by the Brotherhood of the Shield and were taken blindfolded to the Immortal City. They gathered at a location known only as Pieta by the time-traveler Leonardo da Vinci. They all represented the nations, factions and secret societies most likely to acheive world domination.; Leonardo da Vinci (Aries) needed three specific missions performed, and in exchange, he would provide them with patronage and resources which could be acquired nowhere else on Earth, which would give them and their factions advantage in fighting their wars in the shadows. All of this on the condition of ultimate anonymity for all parties. Despite personal hatred and pride, all parties agreed.; The first mission was in Giza, Egypt. Shoji Soma, Magadan, the Kraken, and John Garrett scavenged an ancient Brood ship for a power source. The second mission was in the Chateau d'Amboise, France. Thomas Davidson, Jake Fury, and Nick Fury were sent to Leonardo da Vinci's tomb for his original LMD; Fury lied about their success. The third mission was in the Zagros Mountains. Cornelius van Lunt, Baron Strucker, Dum Dum Dugan, and Orion fought their way through a horde of undead androids to find a collection of stasis chambers.; If the chambers were used alongside the Brood power source, they could greatly enhance the inviduals inside. Orion and Magadan of Leviathan double-crossed the others and stole everything. They were stopped by Baron Strucker of Hydra and Shoji Soma of the Hand, who siezed the Brood power source and placed it in a box by Clan Yashida. This caused Leviathan to go dark for many years, as most of its members were in stasis in the chambers. Meanwhile, Leonardo's LMD was reverse engineered for S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Life Model Decoy program.; ==Members==; {! class="wikitable" style="text-align: center"; !+ Members of the Great Wheel; !-; !

The Brood ship had crashed in 2620 BC and led to an invasion that killed Pharaoh Khasekhemwy Khasekhemui. Wielding a golden spear and shield, Imhotep gathered many warriors, including Apocalypse, Pestilence, War, Famine, Death, and Moon Knight. Together, they defeated the Brood and Imhotep personally killed the Brood queen. This led to the founding of the Imhotep's brotherhood, which would eventually split to become the Brotherhood of the Shield, inspired by the Shield of Imhotep, and the Brotherhood of the Spear (the earliest form of Hydra), inspired by the Spear of Imhotep.; Mission Two was retrieving the very first Life Model Decoy from Leonardo da Vinci's tomb in Chateau d'Amboise, France. In 1503, Leonardo da Vinci and his assistants, Pietro Perugino and Lorenzo di Credi, created it to hide the fact that Leonardo had built a time machine to time travel to 1956, and not even the rest of the Brotherhood of the Shield was aware of this. He had two reasons. First, he and his assistants unknowingly found the pregnant Celestial Madonna in the Sun, and when she gave birth in 1956, he retrieved the Star Child. Second, he was tasked by Michelangelo to bring the Human Machine to the future and to guide a young man named Leonid, so Leonid could save the world.; Mission Three was retrieving the special chambers hidden in the Zagros Mountains. The Last Caliphate, the three brothers of causality, are the Navigator of the Human Machine, but they lived a millennium before the Human Machine would activate. At the request of the nonlinear Michelangelo, they were hidden away and slept in the chambers for centuries. When Michelangelo brought Nikola Tesla back to life as a cyborg, he sent Tesla to find the Last Caliphate's chambers in the Zagros Mountains. Then, when the Human Machine was needed to stop Isaac Newton's goal of ending the world, the Nikola Tesla revealed these chambers to Nathaniel Richards and Howard Stark, and they awakened the Last Caliphate.

He quickly terminates all the members, except their leader, Maxine Sands, aka Blue Max. While she is on the ledge of a building, Blue Max tries to explain her reasons, but the Punisher is thinking only about punishment.; Claiming nobody has ever give her anything, she prefers suicide instead of allow the Punisher to cause her death. Jake feels uncomfortable about her suicide, knowing that Maxine was not the only one responsible for her behavior, but rather the product of her society.; Sky Boy, one of the surviving Blades saved her from falling, and eventually crosses Jake Gallows' path later. He was incarcerated in the Punishment Hotel, and when Jake became more violent after his girlfriend's death, Graham was one of the many criminals to be terminated by the Molecular Disintegrator. The Punisher stated he was going to find the other Blades sooner or later.; Later, battling again for the Blue Dagger, Maxine confronted the Punisher, and teamed up with the Samurai, who was quickly killed. Blue Max tried to kill him to avenge the Samuraï and her fellow deceased Blades, and win the race. The Blue Dagger was destroyed but she had already won, infuriating the Punisher, who wanted to beat Max to destroy the allure of the sport for kids. Jake tries to kill her when she gets out, but the spectators deliberately block his path. Maxine then leaves.

+Full name: Zodiac
+Other aliases: Lords of the Zodiac
+First appearance: Amazing Spider-Man Vol 4 1
+Created by: Dan Slott; Giuseppe Camuncoli
+Identity status: Public
+Reality: Earth-616
+History:
+This new iteration of the Zodiac was assembled by Vernon Jacob Fury, best known as the businessman Vernon Jacobs, the biggest shareholder and investor of Parker Industries. Using resources and money from the company, Jacobs funded his operations in the Zodiac, with his sights set on world domination. Vernon used Gemini, who could see one day ahead into the future, to stay ahead of S.H.I.E.L.D. and obtain his fortune.; After four failed attempts from the Leo Sect to steal Parker Industries' secure servers, which were linked to every Webware account across the globe, from their Shanghai branch, the Pisces Sect attacked Peter Parker directly when he was at a wedding to get his personal Webware, which included special privileges and access to restricted data caches. In order to protect innocent lives, Parker gave Pisces what he was looking for. However, with its data encrypted, Parker hoped that would buy him enough time to track the device down.; Parker's Webware was taken to the Aquarius Base, where Cancer started to decrypt it, with Aquarius' oversight. Spider-Man and the Prowler infiltrated the base to recover the Webware. When they were discovered, Aquarius sent all of its stored data, which was still encrypted, to every Zodiac base around the globe. While Zodiac got the data, the transfer allowed S.H.I.E.L.D. to pinpoint the locations of the other bases.; S.H.I.E.L.D. got ready to launch a coordinated global strike on the bases, but Gemini's premonitions allowed Scorpio to know of this. With the data decrypted, Scorpio managed to shut down the Parker-tech on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier and take them by surprise together with Taurus, Aries, and several minions. During the assault, Scorpio disintegrated Leo, who had been captured by S.H.I.E.L.D. after his final failed attempt early on.; Every Zodiac base in the world was then attacked by S.H.I.E.L.D., but several of them were found out to be phonies. The distribution of the fake bases allowed the Zodiac to piggyback from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s global scan, as they had managed to hack into S.H.I.E.L.D.'s defenses. Using the scans, the Zodiac found the location of an item they were looking for, the Zodiac Grand Orrery inside the Rosetta Stone in the British Museum. Investigating the Zodiac's move, Spider-Man managed to track them down, but he failed to prevent Scorpio from fulfilling his goal. As part of a contingency plan to escape, Scorpio triggered a kill switch inside the other members of the Zodiac. Using an antitoxin derived from the Zodiac's past uses of suicide by poison, Spider-Man saved them all, but at the cost of letting Scorpio escape.; When Spider-Man flew to space to hack S.H.I.E.L.D.'s satellites in hopes of finding the search program Scorpio used for the Orrery, which could be used against Scorpio this time, Jacobs reprogrammed the satellites and changed their trajectory to hit the hero, but he failed as the satellites were ultimately destroyed. After having learned the location of the Orrery, Spider-Man landed from space into Paris. During that time, the planets in the Orrery aligned, revealing a new constellation in the sky, the thirteenth sign of the spider.; Scorpio followed Spider-Man to the crash site where he had landed, and tried to kill him, but the Parisians stood in his way. Scorpio left Spider-Man and caught the Channel Tunnel to England with the new Gemini, and used special headwear to transform two staff members into the new Cancer and Leo. Spider-Man followed Scorpio, but he managed to get the Wall-Crawler off his back.; With Scorpio out of his reach, Spider-Man focused on investigating the results from hacking the S.H.I.E.L.D. satellites, and discovered Scorpio's true identity. Scorpio then intercepted a holographic call between Spider-Man and his allies, and threatened to use the influence he had over Parker Industries to sink the company to the ground if they tried to stop him.; Jacobs and his group made their way to the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, recruiting a new Taurus and Pisces along the way. There, he put the Orrery right in the Prime Meridian. This caused all 12 Zodiacal constellations to form in the sky and to burn in the ground. This revealed a cave that contained a door that led to a whole year worth of future knowledge. Scorpio planned to use all this knowledge to take over the world, the way he used only one day to outsmart S.H.I.E.L.D.; Spider-Man and his allies arrived to stop him, but Scorpio used the Key to knock out everyone in the battle, even the other Zodiac members. Scorpio went into the cave and started to absorb the next year of knowledge, but Spider-Man went behind his back and pushed him to the other side, then closed it with the Key, presumably sending him a year into the future. After he disappeared, the Zodiac members were freed from the mind control masks, causing them to abandon Scorpio's cause.

+Zeta Flight was a gang of space pirates and thieves led by Corporal Carol Danvers from the cloaked Zeta Flight Station in Earth Orbit. During a preparation for a massive heist they teamed up with another pirate group led by the Widower until she turned on the Zetas after suspecting that Danvers was about to backstab her team and cut them out of the loot. During this time Corporal was switched places with another Carol Danvers from an alternate universe who assumed her identity and attempted to keep the pretenses of being a ruthless pirate in front of the Zeta Flight. When Zeta Flight Station was attacked by Widower and her team in the Quinjets, but Zetas fought them off in Zeta Fighters. idower then confronted Danvers face-to-face all while Zetas were wondering about the reasons for the hostility. Widower revealed to everyone that Danvers was about to go back on their deal, shocking Zetas who up until then remained unaware of their leader's plans and they soon announced to her that they wanted their cut of the heist.; However, Widower soon confirmed that Zetas didn't steal her haul, which left only one other crew who could have done it - Ravagers led by Carol's nemesis Lord Starkill. Widower joined the Zetas in their assault on the Ravagers' asteroid hideout, but they were outmatched and everyone was captured. Starkill had the idea of selling his nemesis and her crew to the peacekeeper Thanos the Just in order to clear his own name, but the the rest of the Ravagers found his plan extremely dangerous and foolhardy. Meanwhile, Zetas have also grown tired of their leader's questionable leadership of late and so the two groups sided together in a shared mutiny against their captains, deciding to deliver both of them to Thanos. Upon landing on Titan, they were taken by him to the Court of Galactic Justice. Thanos found the lives of two criminals incapable of redemption worth nothing to hand over in exchange until Rockette revealed the Reality Stone taken from Lord Starkill. Thanos then ordered every pirate seized and announced his intention to use the Stone to rid of the galaxy of all who pirate and pillage like they do. Upon hearing that, the Widower attacked attacked Thanos' forces and the other pirates joined in, helping their captains espace and also robbing the treasury on their way back to the ship.
