bio_text= Dwayne Taylor grew up believing his rich parents were gunned down by criminals. Taylor's guardians, the ex-military sergeant [[Chord, Andrew|Chord]] (a friend of his father's) and the elderly housekeeper [[Tai]], supported Taylor's vow to make all criminals pay for their actions, helping him create the identity of Night Thrasher.

Taylor trained hard to be a skilled fighter. On his first outing, he met [[Midnight's Fire]] and [[Silhouette]]. These two superhumans were taking out criminals by gaining their confidence and then busting them. Giving his name as Night Thrasher, Taylor joined them on their crusade. One night, while Silhouette was infiltrating a gunrunning operation, the police accidentally came upon them. Scared that the police were fixing to shoot his sister, Midnight's Fire started to throw a blade at them. Taylor stopped him before he had a chance to throw it, and a gun battle erupted. Silhouette was hit and badly injured in the spine. Taylor, who had fallen in love with Silhouette, was heartbroken, as was Midnight's Fire. Midnight's Fire swore to get revenge on Taylor someday. Taylor left them, believing that Silhouette was dead.

Realizing that he needed more of an edge, Taylor trained even harder. Using his parent's Taylor Foundation, Taylor had Chord provide him with a state-of-the-art headquarters, training facilities, and computer support systems. He also had developed specialized armor and weaponry. Taylor then decided to create a special team so he would have some backup. He recruited several young heroes and formed the [[New Warriors]].

[[image:NightThrasher01.jpg|left|thumb|180px]]
Shortly after they formed the team, Midnight's Fire made an appearance and tried to frame Taylor with the murder of two policemen. In a final battle with Midnight's Fire, Taylor overcame his fear of his nemesis and beat him in a battle. Taylor then discovered that Silhouette was still alive but crippled. She renounced her brother's actions, turning him in to the police and joining Taylor in the New Warriors.

After the Warriors thwarted a plot by the criminal scientists of [[A.I.M.]], Taylor discovered a link between A.I.M.'s benefactors and the Taylor Foundation. With some investigation, he discovered dozens of illegal operations and shady business practices performed by the Foundation, linking them with criminal industrialist [[Gideon]] and the Japanese [[Yakuza]] syndicate, among others. Taylor used the Warriors to seek out the truth in confronting the Yakuza, but the team balked at making a deal with criminals. Taylor refused to budge, and the argument led him to quit the New Warriors.

Taylor was then approached by the criminal team [[Folding Circle]], of which Midnight's Fire was a part, since they promised to lead him to the truth of his past. In doing so, it was revealed that Taylor's father, while in Vietnam, was captured by Tai, who was a powerful sorcerer guarding an ancient temple. Tai had coerced Taylor's father and others in his military unit, including Chord, to have children with the women of the temple, in order that their children would later be sacrificed in the temple's mystic well of dimensional energies and thereby give Tai even greater power. Chord and Taylor's father tried to thwart this plot, and Chord was thus mystically ensorcelled to kill Taylor's parents. The Folding Circle was comprised of the children of Tai's prophecy, but it was assembling its members too early for Tai's wishes. The New Warriors, investigating Night Thrasher's activities, tracked the Circle to the Vietnamese temple, where they joined Folding Circle in a climatic battle with Tai. Ultimately, Tai was seemingly slain by the very energies she tried to master.

Taylor rejoined the New Warriors and served with them for a long tenure. He left the team eventually, rededicating himself to his role as chairman of the Taylor Foundation, although he would team up with them when the need arose. Later, Taylor decided to give up adventuring altogether, becoming a full-time director of the Taylor Foundation. He believed that true battles for justice would be fought in the boardrooms. He moved to the Seattle branch of the Foundation, seemingly disbanding the New Warriors.

Over time, however, the New Warriors reassembled without Taylor's help. Even so, as the Warriors continued to use equipment and facilities associated with the Taylor Foundation, he was able to monitor the new version of the team. He even rejoined them briefly against the assassin [[Iron Fist (Junzo Muto)|Junzo Muto]] and agents of the [[Hand]].

[[image:newwarriors01.jpg|left|thumb|240px]]More recently, the Taylor Foundation suffered a massive downfall when its funding of cancer research banked on the efforts of Zachary Smith. Smith’s cure was revealed to be nothing more than his mutant son’s subconscious help. The Foundation’s stock tanked and Smith abandoned his son, but Dwayne Taylor stepped in to adopt the young mutant, now [[Microbe]]. However, it would require more creative solutions to save the Foundation. Night Thrasher made a deal with shady television executive Ashley Brothers to avoid bankruptcy, but this also forced the New Warriors into a unique re-branding as a reality-TV show. Hoping to make the best of the situation, the team hit the road to become heroes for the common man throughout small-town America.

The Warriors enjoyed mixed success and popularity, but the show was officially canceled and bankruptcy proceedings were initiated. Even so, the Warriors were able to return and continue their reality-TV efforts. However, when they hoped to boost their ratings by apprehending a quartet of villains holed up in Stamford, Connecticut, tragedy struck. During the battle, [[Nitro (Robert Hunter)|Nitro]] used his power to cause a massive explosion. It killed Night Thrasher, the New Warriors, and killed almost everyone in the vicinity.

bio_text = 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 [[Yellow Claw|Plan Tzu]], a.k.a. Master Plan. Plan had long since selected his potential successor, [[Woo, Jimmy|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 Tzu 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 Elsenhower in 1958. Authorized to assemble a special rescue team, Woo reviewed his files on active super-beings and instinctively selected a roster that came to him in a dream: [[Gorilla Man (Kenneth Hale)|Gorilla Man]], [[Venus (siren)|Venus]], [[Marvel Boy (Robert Grayson)|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 "G-Men" rescued Elsenhower 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. He renewed his investigations of the Atlas Foundation alongside a team of rogue S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, but his team was killed and Woo himself nearly slain while invading the Temple of Atlas. Woo was eventually rescued and revived by his former allies of the G-Men, who agreed to help Woo uncover the truth of the Foundation. Joined by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s [[Khanata, Derek|Derek Khanata]], the heroes subsequently exposed and shut down many subversive Atlas operations operating under various legitimate business fronts, finally invading the Temple of Atlas itself.
The heroes confronted Master Plan and his royal advisor, [[Mr. Lao]], who revealed Woo's true heritage and the Atlas Foundation's plans for him. Seeing a chance to use the Atlas Foundation's immense resources for good, Woo accepted his new post as Khan of the Eternal Empire and CEO of the Atlas Foundation with the blessing of Plan, whom Lao promptly consumed. Allowing the world to believe them slain by the Claw, Jimmy Woo's heroic team has remained together as the core Agents of Atlas, the foundation's primary covert super-operatives. Derek Khanata has concealed their continued existence from his S.H.I.E.L.D. superiors.

* NOTE: In [[Earth-9904|Reality-9904]], Hale, M-11, Grayson and Venus teamed with [[3-D Man (Chandler)|3-D Man]] to form the 1950s Avengers under Woo's guidance and with Namora's assistance, but that reality was wiped from existence by [[Immortus]].

He is also capable of communicating to ants and, while he is ant-sized, Eric is capable of punching a human being with the same amount of force as a normal-sized person.
The Ant-Man armor has three buttons on the helmet that can do various things to the armor. Mode one keeps the uniform intact which can be useful in the case of repairs being needed to the armor or if Eric needs to do something full-size as Ant-Man. Mode two peels the uniform off Eric as he grows to normal size, reducing the size of the uniform and storing it inside the helmet. It remains to be seen what the function of mode three is. Ant-Man is also capable of releasing tentacles that are located at the back of his armor. These tentacles can be used for crawling or flying. It is unclear whether these tentacles are released automatically or manually or both.

{{bio|
bio_text = Eric O’ Grady was a [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]] agent assigned to monitor satellite footage and locate anything out of the ordinary. Despite having a tedious occupation, Eric worked alongside his best friend, [[McCarthy, Chris|Chris McCarthy]] and fellow agent Veronica, whom Eric had a crush on. However, Veronica disliked Eric and shunned him completely any chance he tried to talk to her. Chris was also seeing Veronica behind Eric’s back before he had the courage to admit to his best friend that he was going out with the woman he liked.

One morning, during surveillance duty, Eric and Chris received a visitor in the form of Agent [[Ant-Man (Mitch Carson)|Mitch Carson]], who requested their aid in posing as security guards as he and the real security guards were needed in another part of the [[S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier]]. As the security guards gave Eric and Chris their guns and departed, Eric realized that Mitch neglected to tell them whether they were meant to keep anybody from entering the door they were guarding or prevent them from leaving. It was at that moment that the door opened up and Eric, in a state of panic, knocked [[Yellowjacket (Henry Pym)|Dr. Henry Pym]] unconscious. They dragged his body back into the lab and began panicking. Inside that Eric noticed a suit of armor and goaded Chris into trying it on. Chris put on the costume but as he tried to find a way to take it off, he accidentally pushed a button and disappeared in front of Eric’s eyes. Eric panicked once again and ran out of the room, leaving Chris stuck ant-sized. Mitch later found out what had happened and confronted Eric about the missing Ant-Man suit. He revealed to Eric that Dr. Pym was working on a new Ant-Man suit for S.H.I.E.L.D. and that Mitch was one of the agents selected to try out for the suits detail. He ordered Eric to keep his mouth shut about the situation. In the meantime, Chris was having difficulty in trying to control the suit in the Helicarrier's ventilation system. He listened in on a conversation between Eric and Veronica as Eric tried to explain Chris’ disappearance to her (he was on a classified mission). He also lied to her by saying Chris was seeing somebody else behind Veronica’s back, much to both Chris and Veronica’s dismay. As Chris went off to confront Eric about what he had said, the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier was suddenly besieged by a number of supervillains. Chris entered Eric’s room and was struck by a frightened Eric, momentarily thinking Chris was one of the villains. As Chris told Eric what he had been up to for the past day, Eric’s room came under attack by two villains. Using the code to open his door, Eric pushed Chris out of the way and made his exit. However Chris was shot in the head and killed before the door closed over, preventing the villains from following them. Weeping for his fallen friend, and with the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier coming under heavy attack, Eric took the Ant-Man costume off the body of his best friend just as the Helicarrier crashed to the ground of Arkansas.

Hours later, as Eric was helping victims of the crash, he met up with Veronica and told her that Chris was killed during the assault. With the Helicarrier destroyed, the surviving agents were put on leave. A week later, Eric and Veronica traveled to Chris’ hometown and met up with his parents, who allowed them to stay at their home. Meanwhile, Mitch was contacted by Henry Pym and [[Hill, Maria|Maria Hill]] and told to bring in the thief that stole the Ant-Man suit. They suspected that the thief was a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent and gave Mitch a device that could detect the Pym Particles left behind every time the person shrunk to ant-size. The day after Chris’s funeral, Veronica went to visit Chris’s grave but was followed by Eric. Feeling angry and alone, Veronica made out with Eric and, just as they were about to make love on Chris’s grave, Veronica came to her senses and left before she made a big mistake.

Some months later, the agents returned to work aboard the newly repaired S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. As Eric settled in, he donned his costume and, while ant-sized, entered the ladies' shower room and began to spy on the women showering, but was noticed by one of the women. Escaping into the ventilation system, Eric was confronted by an army of ants and discovered that he could communicate with them. Unbeknownst to Eric, Mitch had donned an Ant-Man armor of his own, built by Henry Pym, but this armor was only a prototype and wasn’t as advanced as Eric’s costume. Nevertheless Mitch used it to track down the thief and bring him in. In the meantime, Veronica and Eric had gotten a lot closer and both of them slept with each other. That night, Eric donned the Ant-Man costume again and went to meet up with his new ant friends but instead was attacked by Mitch Carson, wearing his Ant-Man costume. As the two fought, Eric communicated with the ants to attack Mitch and made his escape. The next day after work, Veronica asked Eric out. But Eric, having slept with her, was now bored and blew her off. Eric didn’t realize that Veronica was now pregnant following her one night stand with Eric. That night, Eric and some other agents were playing poker in Mitch’s room. As Eric was winning, Mitch tried to see his bluff but Eric admitted that if there was one thing he was good at, it was lying. At that moment, Mitch realized that Eric was the costume thief and attacked him. He dragged Eric to his quarters and demanded entry to his room. As Eric input his room’s entry code, he pushed Mitch out of the way and locked himself inside. He then put on his costume and entered a ventilation shaft, but was followed by Mitch, now wearing his Ant-Man costume, and attacked. As Eric tried to make his getaway using his jets, the feedback burned the left half of Mitch’s face, leaving him horribly scarred. Ant-Man brought Mitch to the infirmary and made his getaway from the Helicarrier.

Arriving in New York, Ant-Man stumbled upon a woman about to be mugged and intervened by beating up the mugger. He then asked the woman, who was named Beth, out on a date and she agreed. That night and after the date, Eric was asked to come to Beth’s apartment for coffee. Eric took this to mean something else and was thrown out by Beth. However, Eric took down Beth’s address and returned as Ant-Man to her apartment and began to secretly live there. As he watched Beth take a shower, there was a knock at the door. As Beth angrily answered, Mitch Carson was standing there, having traced the Pym Particles to Beth’s apartment, and asked to search the apartment. Eric revealed himself to Mitch and made his escape, hiding in Mitch’s flying vehicle. He then broke Mitch’s tracking device and began to search for the next place to stay. As he began searching, he noticed an attractive woman walking down the street and hid in her purse, only to discover that the woman was none other than Carol Danvers, alias [[Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers)|Ms. Marvel]].

object_text= Gungnir is the Spear of [[Odin]] and is also referred to as the "Spear of Heaven". It is an ancient weapon made of the Uru metal which was unique to the [[Asgard|Asgardian Dimension]]. The three-pronged spear is of unknown origin, and predates the last three incarnations of Odin himself. At Odin's "birth" at the dawn of [[Asgardians|Asgardian]] history, he found Gungnir on the Plains of Ida and used it to focus his power to fashion Asgard as it was known before the most recent Ragnarok.

In the most recent siege on Asgard, [[Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)|Norman Osborn]] sent the [[Thunderbolts]] to retrieve the Spear from the treasure vaults in the city of Asgard. A team of Thunderbolts located the spear and began extraction when a team of [[Avengers|"Mighty" Avengers]] located them and engaged them in battle. The Thunderbolts member [[Paladin]] retrieved the spear and threw it at the [[Vision (Victor Shade)|Vision]] who it managed to harm even in his intangible state. It passed through the Vision and destroyed the top of the treasure vault the two teams were fighting in. The Avengers had the upper-hand until [[Nuke|Scourge]] gained control of the Spear and used it to amputate the left arm and leg of [[U.S.Agent]]. Osborn called for the Thunderbolts to bring the spear to his location when Paladin had a change of heart, shot Scourge in the face and confiscated the spear and with the aid of [[Ant-Man (Eric O'Grady)|Ant-Man]] and the remaining Avengers they overpowered the last three Thunderbolts and snuck out of the ruins of Asgard in the confusion that the Siege was causing. When the spear was last seen it was still in Paladin's possession as he was hiking down the mid-western highways of Oklahoma away from the ruins of Asgard.

When he became U.S.Agent he carried a shield made out of [[Glossary:V#Vibranium|Vibranium]]. When he was working with Force Works he was outfitted with a photon shield which could shape itself into any form he chose, he mostly used it as a shield. After he stopped working for Force Works he gained a new Vibranium shield which was shaped like an eagle. He would sometimes switch between his eagle shield and his original Captain America look-alike one. He later received a new shield which was a hybrid of his Vibranium shield and his photon shield from S.T.A.R.S. Also in his time with them he used an energy truncheon. After becoming an Invader he received a Vibranium shield shaped like a star which he inscribed the names of those who have fallen for his country.
When he was with the Invaders he also used an energy truncheon and various firearms and guns.
| paraphernalia = U.S.Agent has had many different types of transportation. While working with the [[Avengers]] he used various vehicles such as [[Quinjet]]s, [[Atomic Steed]]s, and other vehicles. While with [[S.T.A.R.S.]] he used various government sanctioned transportation. While with the [[Invaders]] he used government sanctioned transportation and traveled with fellow Invaders on the [[Infiltrator]].
U.S.Agent usually wears thick bulletproof body armor that is made of [[Glossary:V#Vibranium|Vibranium]] and other bulletproof alloys.

bio_text=John Walker was born in Custer's Grove, Georgia to Caleb and Emily Walker. Instilled at an early age with patriotic feelings for his country he eventually joined the army like his brother Mike, who died in the Vietnam War. As soon as he was recruited the war ended and John's hopes of becoming an American Hero were crushed. He then left the military service were he heard of a person known as the [[Power Broker]]. When he learned from his friend that the Power Broker could give anyone superhuman powers, he sought out the Power Broker and signed up for the treatment with his friends. After he gained superhuman strength Walker was confronted by a man named Ethan Thurm, who convinced Walker to become the Super-Patriot. As Super-Patriot, Walker toured the country speaking at demonstrations and rallies. One day while in New York City Walker criticized [[Captain America (Steve Rogers)|Captain America]]'s morals and ideals, saying that they were old and outdated. During his speech a group of men calling themselves the [[Bold Urban Commandos]] or "Buckies" attacked Walker. Walker easily defeated the Buckies and it is later learned that the Buckies were actually working for Walker at the time. Captain America eventually came into conflict with Walker and lost the fight.

[[image:UScap.jpg|left|thumb|180px]]Sometime later Walker was approached by [[Cooper, Valerie|Valerie Cooper]] and asked to become the new Captain America. Walker agreed instantly and asked his if former partners the Buckies could join him. The [[Commission on Superhuman Activities]] refused all but [[Battlestar (Lemar Hoskins)|Lemar Hoskins]] who became the new Bucky. Together Lemar and Walker trained with [[Freedom Force]]'s [[Blob]], [[Pyro]], and [[Avalanche]]. After a little time the Commission hired [[Taskmaster]] to train Walker to be able to fight like Captain America. Meanwhile Steve Rogers used the identity of the Captain and tried to reclaim his title of Captain America. During his time as Captain America the terrorist group known as the [[Watchdogs]] killed his father and mother. Also during his time as Captain America two of his former friends became [[Left-Winger]] and [[Right-Winger]], whom he killed while in a rage. Eventually Rogers and Walker encountered one another and battled until both Walker and Rogers learned that it was the [[Red Skull (Johann Shmidt)|Red Skull]] who was manipulating the two of them. After the battle Walker finally realized what the costume symbolized and returned it to Steve Rogers.

Months later, the Commission held a demonstration of their new operative, U.S.Agent. In the demonstration U.S.Agent faced off against the [[Iron Monger]] and easily defeated the armor and its pilot. He then was sent on several solo missions including one against a British team called the [[Super Soldiers]]. On one of his early solo missions he joined forces with Captain America to stop a faction of Watchdogs. During this battle Captain America was worried about what Walker might do to the Watchdogs since they killed his family. However Walker restrained himself and proved himself worthy to Captain America.

[[Image:US_Agent.jpeg|left|thumb|180px]]Later, he was ordered to join the [[Avengers West Coast]] by the government in order to keep tabs on them. While in the Avengers he had frequent fights with fellow Avenger [[Hawkeye (Clint Barton)|Hawkeye]] and fought many villains such as [[Magneto (Magnus)|Magneto]], [[Doctor Demonicus]], [[Ultron]], [[Hydro-Man]], [[Grim Reaper]], and several others. During one mission the Avengers West Coast fought the [[Bogatyri]], a Russian mercenary group who had allied themselves with Doctor Demonicus and [[Klaw]]. Throughout these battles between the two teams U.S.Agent formed a grudge with [[Dennista, Zevzda|Zevzda Dennista]]. After a battle on Doctor Demonicus's island a reactor exploded and the island began to sink. Overcoming their grudge Walker asked Zevzda if she wanted a ride home. She declined and instead kissed U.S.Agent.

While still an active Avenger, Walker continued to work on solo missions which included trying to bring down the [[Scourge of the Underworld]] organization, including its creator [[Angel (Thomas Halloway)|Thomas Halloway]], but due to lack of evidence the courts could not put Thomas in jail. One of his solo missions included stopping a riot and a superhuman powerhouse named [[Peacemonger]] from terrorizing a local neighborhood. Another mission forced him to confront [[Nomad (Jack Monroe)|Nomad]], who at the time had a warrant out for his arrest. Another one of Walkers most noted solo escapades was when he sought out a minority killer in Texas who kept killing all the Hispanics who came into town.
[[Image:Usagents.jpeg|thumb|180px|left]]

When the Avengers West Coast was disbanded, U.S.Agent was asked to join [[Force Works]] by [[Iron Man (Anthony Stark)|Iron Man]]. He accepted the invitation and fought against many foes including the [[Mandarin]] and other foes. After Force Works disbanded U.S.Agent went solo again and encountered [[Wolverine (James Howlett)|Wolverine]] and was critically injured by a person known as [[Protocide]]. After he recovered he led a team of government operatives called the [[Jury]] in order to apprehend the team called the [[Thunderbolts]]. Failing the Jury moved on and Walker was approached by [[S.T.A.R.S.]] who offered him a job. John accepted and worked for S.T.A.R.S. for a long time. During which he fought Captain America, stopped the Power Brokers vile plans, stopped an intergalactic plot by [[Ronan]] the Accuser, even managing to knock Ronan out.

Eventually, a government official named [[Red Skull (Johann Shmidt)|Dell Rusk]], who little to Walkers knowledge was actually the Red Skull ordered the formation of a new team of [[Invaders]]. One of Walkers first priorities was to free [[Blazing Skull (Mark Todd)|Blazing Skull]] from Middle Eastern terrorists. Walker freed Todd and along with his fellow Invaders; [[Thin Man]], [[Tara]], [[Human Torch (Jim Hammond)|Jim Hammond]], [[Union Jack (Joseph Chapman)|Union Jack]], [[Spitfire]], [[Namor]], the [[Fin]], and many others freed the oppressed nation of Mazikhandar, eventually coming into conflict with the Avengers. During the confrontation he and Captain America clashed once again. After a long battle the enraged U.S.Agent was beaten by the Captain and tied up. In order to calm him down Hawkeye shot Walker in the butt, but contrary to his belief this only made Walker madder. After the Thin Man killed the ruler of Mazikhandar, it became a protectorate of [[Atlantis]].

[[image:Usfight.jpeg|right|300px|thumb]]The Invaders continued to work on international missions, leading them to come into conflict with [[Axis Mundi]] members [[Baroness Blood]], [[Meranno]], [[Warrior Woman]], [[Agent Axis]], [[Gotteskrieger]], and the cloned army of insectoid terrorists known as [[Pterorists]]. On one of his many missions with the Invaders, [[Baron Strucker]] sent [[Wolverine (James Howlett)|Wolverine]] who was under the control of [[Hydra]], to kill the members of the Invaders, specifically Namor. During the battle that followed Blazing Skull's left arm and leg was sliced off. Walker ordered the Skull to heal himself as he went to face Wolverine on his own. As Wolverine was about to kill Namor, Walker stabbed Wolverine in the back with his shield. Walker then smashed Wolverine to the ground and beat him to a pulp. He then continued to beat up Wolverine by tossing him near an explosive canister. U.S.Agent then shot at the canister causing it and Logan to burst into flames. Once Wolverine was thoroughly beaten Walker helped Namor get medical treatment. Afterwards Namor expressed his undying gratitude and the honor he had working with U.S.Agent. Later U.S.Agent attended the funeral of Jim Hammond and expressed his gratitude to the fallen hero.

After the Invaders seemingly disbanded Walker returned to the United States and donned his old Black costume and continued to work for the government. Recently he [[Civil War|registered]] with the Superhuman Registration Act and continued to serve his country. However the government and [[Iron Man (Anthony Stark)|Tony Stark]] had different plans for him. Walker then snuck into [[Stark Tower]] and met with Tony when he asked to see him. In the meeting Tony told him that he was ordered to goto Canada and become a member of the new [[Omega Flight|Alpha Flight Program]]. Enraged that they would think of sending him to Canada, Walker told Tony he was an American hero. Tony asked him once again, but Walker refused and left.

Sometime later Walker and a team of [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]] agents were assigned on a mission when the agents started to fire on Walker and a nearby helicopter. Walker started to flee thinking Tony was trying to have him arrested. However when he noticed the helicopters crew was in danger he saved them. He then turned his attention to the agents and easily took them out. He then realized that it was the [[Purple Man]] who was controlling the agents, but before he could react the Purple Man took control of Walker. Purple Man ordered Walker to leave his shield and jump off of the flying vehicle they were in. Unable to refuse, Walker jumped and was severly injured in the fall. Later as Walker recovered, Tony approached him again and told him that S.H.I.E.L.D. information said that Purple Man was heading to Canada. Mad with the circumstances Walker agreed to be a member of the new Omega Flight Program and left for Canada.

Arriving in Canada John was reuinited with former West Coast Avenger, [[Arachne (Julia Carpenter)|Arachne]] and apprehended the superhuman known only as [[Daisy]]. From there they joined the Omega Flight team to discuss [[Guardian (Michael Pointer)|Michael Pointer's]] membership on the team. Meanwhile the [[Wrecking Crew]] were terrorizing downtown Toronto and beating up fellow Flight member [[Sasquatch (Walter Langkowski)|Sasquatch]] who in turn was possessed by the demonic [[Tanaraq]]. Also the Wrecking Crew were enlisted in the aide by a mystical entity and demonic hordes were freed from an undisclosed location to rampage Canada. Alerted to the information the team went into action and fought against the Wrecking Crew, the possessed Sasquatch, and the demon hordes. After both the Crew and Tanaraq were taken care of fellow Flight member [[Beta Ray Bill]] led the demons into a dimensional rift, which was destroyed by Pointer, trapping Bill with the demons. After the battle U.S.Agent stayed with Omega Flight and took revenge upon the Purple Man, reclaiming his shield.

After some time, John was contacted by [[Loki]] disguised as the [[Scarlet Witch]] in order to incorporate him into [[Pym, Hank|Hank Pym]]'s latest version of Avengers. Teleported away from his Omega Flight teammates John helped this new incarnation of Avengers defeat the elder god [[Chthon]] and cemented his status and position on the new Avengers team.

After this new team of Avengers was recognized by [[G.R.A.M.P.A.]], a global peacekeeping agency, they faced several threats such as an incursion into the [[Baxter Building]] which lead to a confrontation with the [[Fantastic Four]], fighting against the former [[Inhumans|Inhuman]] king known as the [[Unspoken]], and coming into conflict with [[Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)|Norman Osborn's]] team of [[Avengers (Osborn's team)|Avengers]] and a [[Cosmic Cube|cosmic cube]] empowered [[Absorbing Man]]. After the Absorbing Man fiasco Norman Osborn pulled rank on U.S.Agent and as the Head of National Security he stripped Walker of his title as U.S.Agent and ordered him to leave his team of Avengers.

Unhappy with the situation, Walker rejoined his team of Avengers during the siege of [[Asgard]] to intercept the Thunderbolts from stealing the [[Gungnir|Spear of Odin]]. During the ensuing conflict Walker was targeted by Thunderbolts leader [[Nuke|Scourge]] who, after a lengthy and epic struggle, proceeded to sever Walker's left hand and leg. After the Spear was recovered thanks to [[Paladin]], [[Stature]] carried Walker away from the battlefield to get him medical treatment.

Recently, Walker was fitted with a regular prosthetic for his left arm and is confined to a wheelchair after the incident in Asgard. Walker was then put in the position of the warden of the [[Raft]].

object_text= Gungnir is the Spear of [[Odin]] and is also referred to as the "Spear of Heaven". It is an ancient weapon made of the Uru metal which was unique to the [[Asgard|Asgardian Dimension]]. The three-pronged spear is of unknown origin, and predates the last three incarnations of Odin himself. At Odin's "birth" at the dawn of [[Asgardians|Asgardian]] history, he found Gungnir on the Plains of Ida and used it to focus his power to fashion Asgard as it was known before the most recent Ragnarok.

In the most recent siege on Asgard, [[Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)|Norman Osborn]] sent the [[Thunderbolts]] to retrieve the Spear from the treasure vaults in the city of Asgard. A team of Thunderbolts located the spear and began extraction when a team of [[Avengers|"Mighty" Avengers]] located them and engaged them in battle. The Thunderbolts member [[Paladin]] retrieved the spear and threw it at the [[Vision (Victor Shade)|Vision]] who it managed to harm even in his intangible state. It passed through the Vision and destroyed the top of the treasure vault the two teams were fighting in. The Avengers had the upper-hand until [[Nuke|Scourge]] gained control of the Spear and used it to amputate the left arm and leg of [[USAgent]]. Osborn called for the Thunderbolts to bring the spear to his location when Paladin had a change of heart, shot Scourge in the face and confiscated the spear and with the aid of [[Ant-Man (Eric O'Grady)|Ant-Man]] and the remaining Avengers they overpowered the last three Thunderbolts and snuck out of the ruins of Asgard in the confusion that the Siege was causing. When the spear was last seen it was still in Paladin's possession as he was hiking down the mid-western highways of Oklahoma away from the ruins of Asgard.

== The Deception ==
[[image: ThunderboltsLogo.jpg|right]]After a battle with [[Onslaught (entity)|Onslaught]] left the world without the majority of the heroes that made it feel safe, [[Baron Zemo (Helmut Zemo)|Baron Zemo]] devised a plan like no other in order to rule the world. Zemo gathered [[MACH-IV|Beetle]], [[Fixer (Paul Norbert Ebersol)|Fixer]], [[Atlas (Erik Josten)|Goliath]], [[Moonstone (Karla Sofen)|Moonstone]], and [[Songbird|Screaming Mimi]], all former members of the [[Masters of Evil]], together to disguise themselves as a new heroic team in order to take advantage of the missing heroes and gain the trust of the authorities and public in general. They were soon joined by starry-eyed young rookie heroine [[Jolt (Hallie Takahama)|Jolt]], who was unaware of her teammate's true identities and hidden agenda. Zemo barely tolerated Jolt, regarding her as little more than a public relations tool, but most of the team quickly grew fond of her and found her idealism infectious. A seeming exception was the amoral Techno, who grew colder than ever after his neck was broken and he returned in robotic form.

== Justice Like Lightning ==
[[image: ThunderboltsInline1.jpg|thumb|left]]Once the Thunderbolts had established themselves as beloved heroes, Zemo abruptly dropped their deception successfully launched a plan to take over the world by enslaving everyone including the returning [[Avengers]] and [[Fantastic Four]]. However, the plan was thwarted when members of the Thunderbolts decided they preferred the life of a hero than villain and teamed with Iron Man to put an end to Zemo’s plans. In the end, Zemo fled with Techno, and the other Thunderbolts began a new life on the run as outlaw adventurers, trying to prove their heroism to the public while evading capture.

== Most Wanted ==
Veteran super hero [[Hawkeye (Clint Barton)|Hawkeye]], who was sympathetic to the Thunderbolts because of his own outlaw past-quit the Avengers and joined the Thunderbolts as their new leader, enhancing the team's reputation, morale and fighting skills. He persuaded ex-Beetle Abe Jenkins, the team's only known wanted killer, to go back to prison for the sake of the group's credibility-though this parting proved difficult for both Jenkin's and his girlfriend Songbird. Hawkeye also championed the joining of the team's repentant one-time foe Charcoal and led the group to victory over the [[Crimson Cowl (Justine Hammer)|Crimson Cowl]]'s new Masters of Evil, seizing the Masters’ Mount Charteris complex to serve as the new Thunderbolts headquarters. The facility’s reclusive resident caretaker and mutant machinesmith [[Ogre]], a long-inactive agent of defunct subversive group Factor Three, began providing the Thunderbolts with tech support. Hawkeye began a romance with the cynical Moonstone, inspiring her to change for the better. Jenkins soon rejoined the team as MACH-II, having won a secret early release through covert government work. A bored, lonely Techno secretly imprisoned and impersonated Ogre for a time, eventually sacrificing his artificial life to revive Jolt, who had been shot by the mind-controlled assassin [[Nomad (Jack Monroe)|Scourge]] as part of an anti-superhuman conspiracy led by rogue government agent [[Gyrich, Henry Peter|Henry Gyrich]], who was himself under the mental influence of [[Hydra]]'s [[Baron Strucker]]. During Gyrich's conspiracy, Atlas and Zemo were seemingly slain by Scourge, Ogre quit the group, and Hawkeye was estranged from his teammates when they learned that he never had government approval for his work with them and could not authorize pardons for them as he once claimed. Hawkeye redeemed himself when he led the team in defeating Gyrich and secured pardons for the Thunderbolts in exchange for going along with the government cover-up of Gyrich's plot, the catch being that Hawkeye had to go to prison for his own technically illegal vigilante work with the Thunderbolts.

== Heroes Reborn ==
[[image: ThunderboltsInline2.jpg|thumb|left]]
Most of the other Thunderbolts were released, though conditions of their pardon forbade them from public use of costumed identities or special powers. As minors, Charcoal and Jolt became wards of the state and were assigned to the [[Redeemers]], a Thunderbolts-inspired, government-backed super-team whose members included the resurrected Fixer (his human body restored plus memories apparently downloaded from his robotic Techno form), the sonic entity [[Scream]] (the sonic soul of Songbird's ex-partner Angar the Screamer) and new incarnations of [[Beetle (Leila Davis)|Beetle]] (Abe's old enemy Leila Davis), [[Meteorite (Valerie Barnhardt)|Meteorite]] (disgraced pilot Valerie Barnhardt) and [[Smuggler (Conrad Josten)|Smuggler]] (Atlas' brother Conrad Josten). [[Captain America (Steve Rogers)|Captain America]] mentored the group briefly, but was soon replaced as leader by the new [[Citizen V (John Watkins III)|Citizen V]], who was secretly possessed by the disembodied consciousness of the slain Zemo. After a power-mad [[Graviton]] slaughtered most of the Redeemers, he and his alien P'Tah allies were defeated through the combined efforts of Citizen V, Fixer, Jolt, Moonstone, Songbird, a reborn Atlas (sharing a composite form with his ex-lover [[Riordan, Dallas|Dallas Riordan]]) and a re-armored Abe Jenkins (now MACH-3). Most of the heroes seemingly died in a climactic implosion, but were actually hurled to the alternate world Counter-Earth, created by [[Richards, Franklin|Franklin Richards]] and the [[Celestials|Celestial]] [[Ashema the Listener]]. Reunited and uneasily allied with a newly resurrected Zemo (whose disembodied consciousness had been drawn along with them), these Thunderbolts worked to restore peace and prosperity to the disaster-ravaged [[Counter-Earth (Franklin Richards)|Counter-Earth]]. Zemo's Thunderbolts soon became the leading heroes of that world.

Back on Earth, Hawkeye escaped prison and teamed with Songbird on an unofficial secret mission for the intelligence agency [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]], seeking an ultimate weapon developed by the late criminal billionaire [[Hammer, Justin|Justin Hammer]]. In the course of their mission, they teamed with criminals Amazon, [[Plantman|Blackheath]], [[Cyclone (Pierre Fresson)|Cyclone]], [[Harrier]] and [[Skein]], whom Hawkeye forged into a new team of Thunderbolts. Together, they neutralized Hammer's weapon and crushed the Crimson Cowl's reorganized Masters of Evil, saving the world and securing pardons for Hawkeye and Songbird. Shortly thereafter, Hawkeye's Thunderbolts and Zemo's Thunderbolts found themselves simultaneously battling an all-consuming void that threatened both their worlds. Once the threat was neutralized, almost all the Thunderbolts reassembled on Earth, though Jolt remained on Counter-Earth to lead the Young Allies in aiding that troubled world. Having cravenly deserted the team rather than face the void, Cyclone was turned over to the authorities by Hawkeye-but the group gained a new addition in longtime ally Dallas Riordan (now called Vantage), who had been serving as a host body for a disembodied Atlas until he regained his own physical form during the void conflict. Amazon and Skein, doubting they could make it as heroes in the long run, returned to their old extra-legal lives. MACH-III and Harrier both decided to return to prison to serve out their sentences for past crimes. Finally, Moonstone reluctantly convinced Hawkeye to leave, too, since he had taught them well and she wanted to prove they could continue their reformation without his guidance. Though wary of the supposedly reformed Zemo’s role in the team, Hawkeye agreed that the revamped team deserved a chance to prove itself and he left, but Songbird secretly agreed to keep him informed, having stayed with the group largely to keep an eye on its less reliable members.

== Project: Liberator ==
Zemo's new Thunderbolts were successful at first, neutralizing high-profile threats and garnering public acclaim; but the team never fully trusted Zemo, and when they created the global energy-absorbing Liberator project as a potential means of enforcing world peace, Moonstone programmed a secret failsafe into it that would allow her to absorb its vast power if need be. The Avengers, receiving reports from Songbird and having planted Iron Man in the Thunderbolts as a double agent in the guise of Cobalt Man, discovered the failsafe and assumed it was Zemo's handiwork. The Avengers interfered in the Liberator’s test run and accidentally triggered the failsafe, sending a power-crazed Moonstone on a rampage that was halted through the combined efforts of both teams, thanks in part to assistance from Abe Jenkins and Jolt. In the end, Moonstone was left comatose, an embittered Zemo stole away with her moonstones, Blackheath voluntarily returned to prison calling himself Plantman once again, Vantage joined the [[Commission on Superhuman Activities]], Atlas had [[Yellowjacket (Henry Pym)|Henry Pym]] remove his powers, and the Thunderbolts disbanded.

== New Recruits ==
[[image: ThunderboltsInline3.jpg|thumb|right]] Paroled from prison early for assisting the Avengers, Abe Jenkins adopted a new armored guise as MACH-IV and began rebuilding the Thunderbolts recruiting Songbird, Erik Josten, and career criminals [[Blizzard (Donald Gill)|Blizzard]], [[Speed Demon]], [[Joystick]] and [[Radioactive Man (Chen Lu)|Radioactive Man]]. However, a morally conflicted Jenkins struggled as leader, Atlas proved to be unstable since regaining his powers that Dallas Riordan previously absorbed, which now left her confined to a wheelchair once again, and the new recruits slowly began to embrace the group's redemptory philosophy. Songbird, no longer in love with Abe, began to lose faith in the team in general and Jenkins in particular, especially after she and Atlas learned that Abe got the new team’s startup cash from Baron Strucker, who had hoped to set the Thunderbolts up as cannon fodder for an apocalyptic assault on Manhattan. Despite these internal tensions, the Thunderbolts became beloved celebrities again after they saved New York from a Hydra nuclear assault with a last-minute assist from cosmic antihero Captain Marvel, now calling himself [[Photon (Genis-Vell)|Photon]], who had returned to life after a raging Atlas beat him nearly to death.

== Passage to War ==
Using the moonstone gems, Baron Zemo looked into all possible futures and found Photon to be a threat to the world. He then displaced Songbird in time by taking her to an opening in space in order to persuade her to join his new cause to save the world. Zemo began a partnership with the Commission on Superhuman Activities after showed them the future and convinced them that he is out to save the world. Once he returned Songbird to normal time and space, Songbird took leadership of the Thunderbolts from MACH-IV. During this time Songbird fired Blizzard because she didn't think he could cut it as a member of the team.

Speed Demon secretly began stealing money in order fund the Thunderbolts. Speed Demon decided to steal from his ex-teammate [[Nighthawk (Kyle Richmond)|Nighthawk]]. This lead to him confronting Speed Demon about it at Thunderbolts headquarters. During this confrontation the Thunderbolts were attacked by a newly reformed [[Squadron Sinister]] who wanted to recruit Nighthawk and Speed Demon back into their ranks. The Squadron Sinister managed to kidnap Nighthawk and Speed Demon joined the group in order to infiltrate them. The Thunderbolts teamed with Nighthawk attempted to put a stop to their plans, but failed and the Squadron Sinister escaped. After the battle was over, Nighthawk joined the Thunderbolts and Songbird fired Speed Demon for stealing money and Speed Demon ended up joining the Squadron Sinister after all.

Baron Zemo began recruiting his own group of Thunderbolts that would help him battle Songbird's Thunderbolts. He recruited Fixer, MACH-IV, Blizzard, Man-Killer, [[Blackout (Marcus Daniels)|Blackout]] and a comatose Moonstone. [[Swordsman (Andreas Strucker)|Swordsman]] found out Zemo's plans tried to warn Songbird's Thunderbolts, but failed to warn them before Zemo's group attacked. During the battle the [[Smuggler (Conrad Josten)|Smuggler]] used Blackout to return from the Darkforce Dimension and Zemo severed Photon's body into different pockets of time and dispersed those pockets across the Darkforce Dimension in order to save Photon from destroying the world. The team roster would change again as Smuggler and Swordsman would join and upon learning that Songbird only used Nighthawk for his money, he left the team to join the Squadron Sinister.

== Thunderbolts Army ==
[[image: ThunderboltsInline4.jpg|thumb|left]]When the [[Civil War|Superhuman Registration Act]] became law, the [[Commission on Superhuman Activities]] contacted the Thunderbolts to help capture super-villains and persuade them to join the pro-registration side. Unknown to the CSA, the Thunderbolts had already started capturing super-villains three weeks prior in order to build an army against an upcoming threat from the [[Grandmaster]]. Those that agreed to join helped the Thunderbolts recruit more members until there was an army of villains, in which the group was called the Thunderbolts Army.

Zemo was able to convince both Captain America and Iron Man, the leaders of each side in the war over the Superhuman Registration Act, to help him at a crucial point in his battle with Grandmaster. The battle with Grandmaster was felt thought the entire world, due to Grandmaster using the power from the [[Wellspring of Power]] to grant people all over the world powers and manipulating them through that power. In the end, Zemo was able to defeat Grandmaster and obtain the power of the Wellspring. Believing Zemo would use the power for evil intentions, Songbird shattered the moonstone gems, sending Zemo through both time and space into the past.

While the Thunderbolts dealt with Grandmaster and the reformed Squadron Sinister, the Thunderbolts Army and other heroes throughout the world battled those that Grandmaster had granted powers. During the battle some of its members were taken control by Grandmaster's power resulting in some members turning on each other. This led various members to doubt they could actually do any good. The Thunderbolts Army quickly dispersed; some returned to their villainous ways while others continued operating under the Superhuman Registration Act becoming federal agents.

== Operation: Justice Like Lightning ==
[[image: ThunderboltsInline5.jpg|thumb|right]]When Baron Zemo's Thunderbolts were preparing for their battle against Grandmaster, Dallas Riordan met with Songbird privately to discuss the future of the Thunderbolts and candidates for the Fifty State Initiative. Songbird was told that she could take a few of the current Thunderbolts with her when finding a new team.

During a battle between the Pro-Registration and Anti-Registration sides, [[Goliath (Bill Foster)|Goliath]] was killed by a [[Thor (CSA clone)|clone]] of [[Thor (Thor Odinson)|Thor]]. This opened the eyes for many and put things in a different perspective, causing some members to leave each side for the other. The Pro-Registration side ended up losing more members than anticipated, causing the Fifty State Initiative plan to be put in action faster than planned. The CSA, with the help of Songbird, gathered [[Bullseye]], [[Lady Deathstrike]], [[Jack O'Lantern (Steven Levins)|Jack O'Lantern]] (Steven Levins), [[Jester (Jody Putt)|Jester]] (Jody Putt), [[Taskmaster]] and [[Venom (Mac Gargan)|Venom]] (Mac Gargan) to capture the [[Secret Avengers]]. Not taking any chances, [[Mister Fantastic]] chipped and tagged each member with nanobot technology to monitor their actions. Before the team fought as a unit, Jack O'Lantern and Jester were utilized in an attempt to capture [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]], but were promptly killed by the [[Punisher (Frank Castle)|Punisher]] in the process.

While the Civil War between the hero community took place, [[Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)|Norman Osborn]] was placed in a leadership role for the Thunderbolts and had him persuade various villains to join the new group of Thunderbolts on a more permanent basis. Moonstone, Radioactive Man, and Swordsman agreed to join Songbird in the CSA's Thunderbolts. Even though it appears that Songbird is responsible for this new group of Thunderbolts, it has yet to be revealed who exactly is responsible for placing Osborn in the position of leader of the group and for what purposes.

The first official mission as a team was to capture the fugitive [[Jack Flag]], who had come out of retirement and not registered. During the mission Moonstone had the Thunderbolts manipulate the situation to save face with the public and make it look like Jack Flag was indeed a threat to the public. Jack Flag was unable to escape the wrath of Bullseye, whose association with the team is hidden from the public, and was paralyzed by him while trying to escape. Even though their mission was a relative success, there was still much dissension among team members, and it showed even before their next outing. Songbird's constant struggle to regain control of the team from Moonstone; Swordsman's hatred for Osborn; Penance - a tool to be used by Osborn - and so on.
[[image: ThunderboltsInline6.jpg|485px|thumb|center| '''Songbird, Moonstone, Radioactive Man, Penance, Venom and Swordsman''']]

However, the American public demanded action against unregistered vigilantes and the [[Steel Spider (Ollie Osnick)|Steel Spider]] was next on the list. The battle with Steel Spider should not have been difficult, but an impromptu teaming with [[American Eagle]] and [[Sepulchre]] gave the Thunderbolts more trouble than they bargained for. Despite the extra help, the superior numbers and firepower of Osborn's team proved to be too much. Steel Spider was incapacitated when Venom ate one of his arms, but Sepulchre and American Eagle evaded capture. A sever blow was also dealt to the Thunderbolts when Songbird had the nanotechnology inside Bullseye activated to give him a taste of what he did to Jack Flag.

Misfortune would continue to plague the team when a group of psychics infiltrated the Thunderbolt's headquarters when they planned to be captured. Their goal was to tear the team apart from the inside by invading their minds and turn them against one another. [[Doc Samson]] had been visiting the team to diagnose the emotional state of [[Penance (Robert Baldwin)|Penance]] since his part in the tragedy that led to the Superhuman Registration Act. The psychics effectively triggered different responses in each member causing them to act out against one another, including the reappearance of the Green Goblin, and his massacre of several soldiers and nearly killing the Swordsman. Moonstone also suffered serious injuries when she attempted to take on both Samson and Penance. Bullseye, his injuries repaired, ended the fiasco when he killed all the psychics, still in their cells.

Problems came in all forms - or more accurately, shapes - for the Thunderbolts when the shape-shifting race known as the [[Skrulls]] unleashed their [[Secret Invasion|secret invasion of Earth]]. First, a brief encounter with [[Swarm]] and the return of Swordsman's dead sister, [[Strucker, Andrea|Andrea Strucker]], was enough to cause a stir among the team, but when [[Captain Marvel (Skrull)|Captain Marvel]] attacked Mount Charteris, it nearly left the Thunderbolts in shambles. Osborn, as deadly with words as he is with pumpkin bombs, spoke with the man he realized was a Skrull impostor and managed to turn him against his own race, leaving Osborn to take his team into war alongside Earth's heroes for the preservation of the planet. At first, the Skrulls seemed to have the upper hand, but Osborn let loose an out of control Bullseye and Venom, allowing them carte blanche. In the ensuing carnage, Bullseye murdered Andrea Strucker and Osborn allowed her brother to believe the Skrulls were responsible. The Swordsman's rage would know no bounds. The Thunderbolt's participated in the final battle in New York, and that is where Osborn solidified his position when he personally killed the Skrull Queen and ended the war. Osborn was revered a hero, and the President placed him in charge of Earth's defenses, including such organizations as [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]] and [[Project PEGASUS]].

== Black Ops ==

[[image: TBOLTS.jpg|thumb|left]]With Osborn's new found fame and power, he could not publicly associate himself with a band of reformed criminals any longer so he officially left the group and formed [[H.A.M.M.E.R.]] and a new team of Avengers, disusing some old Thunderbolt members as renowned heroes like Hawkeye and [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]]. Unofficially, he still remained in command of the group, using them as his Black Ops team for missions too unsavory for his Avengers. To do this effectively he had to restructure the team completely and released Radioactive Man, Swordsman, and Songbird from active duty - nearly resulting in her untimely death at the hands of Bullseye. His new team consisted of [[Black Widow (Yelena Belova)|Black Widow]] - which was really [[Black Widow (Natasha Romanova)|Natasha Romanova]] in disguise - [[Headsman]], [[Paladin]], [[Ghost]], and [[Ant-Man (Eric O'Grady)|Ant-Man]]. After a grudge match with [[Deadpool]], the team recruited [[Mr. X]] and a man called [[Nuke|Scourge]], his real identity only known to Osborn. Again, this new team had difficulties getting along, but Osborn recruited each one for the unique talents they bring to the table.

His first recruit, Black Widow, was about to fulfill her true purpose for being on the team. In H.A.M.M.E.R.'s quest to rid the streets of filth, soldiers threatened the lives of several homeless men and women, leading to the wrath of Songbird. She defeated the soldiers but now had to run from Osborn since she was out in the open again. Black Widow was contacted by her true commanding officer, the former head of S.H.I.E.L.D., and given instructions to blow her cover and save Songbird. The two women met up before the rest of the Thunderbolts could find them with the intentions of outwitting their foes and escape without a fight. Mr. X and Ant-Man weren't about to let them get away so easily, and Black Widow was tracked to a secret base where [[Fury, Nick|Nick Fury]] was waiting. The Thunderbolts promptly arrived, with Scourge as their newly appointed leader, to defeat and capture Osborn's enemies. Safely detained, Osborn revealed he posed as Fury to enlist Black Widow's help, and he was the one who actually placed her on his team, so she could test the loyalty of his team. Luring Fury out of hiding was merely a bonus. Her next objective was to bring him [[Captain America (Steve Rogers)|Captain America]], which Natasha violently protested. Osborn ordered Songbird's execution as he personally shot Fury in the head. Fury was actually a [[Glossary:L#LMD|Life Model Decoy]], leaving the real deal unharmed, but his allies were still in grave danger. However, Scourge and Mr. X were taken by surprise by their teammates who suddenly had an attack of conscious and couldn't kill two defenseless hostages. The Thunderbolts fought one another, allowing their prisoners to escape, but Ghost altered the memories of Scourge and Mr. X as to not remember how they were betrayed.

Osborn's next scheme was to brainwash [[Iron Fist (Danny Rand)|Iron Fist]] and let him loose against his oldest friend, [[Cage, Luke|Luke Cage]]. The former [[Heroes for Hire]] savagely fought each other until Cage could break through to Danny's subconscious and bring him to his senses. Finally on the same page, Power Man and Iron Fist face off against the Thunderbolts until they are teleported to safety with the help of Ghost, Paladin and Ant-Man. Mr. X is haunted from the experience and the overwhelming need to kill began to make him edgy, so he used the teleporter to go A.W.O.L., leaving the rest of his team no choice but to hunt him down. Scourge, Headsman and Mr. X were allowed to fight uninterrupted as the others watched in the hopes the three would kill each other. No one died and Osborn regained his team, although he now suspected there was a traitor among them. Knowing his team is frustrated due to inactivity, Osborn gives them a new mission: terminate the [[Agents of Atlas]]!

The Thunderbolts, although striking first, quickly realized they were outgunned by the far superior powers of the members of Atlas, but it appeared as if the Thunderbolts were about to turn the tide in their favor when Scourge critically injured the [[Marvel Boy (Robert Grayson)|Uranian]]. In actuality, the Uranian was distracting the team until he could implant a murderous suggestion within the subconscious mind of Scourge which was intended to be the death of Norman Osborn, but it was Headsman who was killed instead. Unaware one of his own had fallen, Osborn sent the Thunderbolts on a mission to seize the [[Gungnir|Spear of Heaven]] during his siege of [[Asgard]]. Using the fabled Spear of [[Odin]], Osborn wished to lay waste to all opposing forces, but a confrontation with the Avengers finally brought about the end to this incarnation of the Thunderbolts. Paladin, Ghost and Ant-Man fought to keep the spear out of Osborn's hands while the Avengers made quick work of the rest. Those members who were too injured to escape found themselves behind bars, and leadership of the group was handed over to [[Cage, Luke|Luke Cage]].

== Second Chances ==

With Osborn out of the way, the Thunderbolts program again offered second chances at redemption with the hope some of the recruits will take it. Both Cage and former Captain America, Steve Rogers, knew not all will turn their lives around, but they're betting some will. Past members the Ghost, Moonstone, Songbird, MACH V, and Fixer joined with new recruits the [[Juggernaut (Cain Marko)|Juggernaut]], [[Crossbones]] and the [[Man-Thing]] to round out the group, but before training sessions can even begin, Baron Zemo returned to reclaim the team he founded.

Hey. I just got the ability to approve my own stuff, and I came here to try and approve the history I wrote. I wrote the Nuke history before I could approve stuff, and I don't seem to be able to 'reach back' and approve it. Is there any way to do this, or do I sit here dutifully waiting for someone else to approve it?--[[User:Spidey:Weapon X|Spidey:Weapon X]] 11:36, 28 May 2006 (EDT)

I don't think I can change pages around so can we get this page changed to Nuke (Frank Simpson) to distinguish between the Nuke from Earth-712, and any other alternate reality Nukes. And I'm sure there's got to be another character who maybe uses that as a nickname or something.--[[User:IRISH4869|Returned.]] 21:35, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

bio_text=Ben Reilly was the most genetically stable of the many clones of Spider-Man created by Professor Miles Warren, the Jackal. Warren created clones of Peter Parker and [[Stacy, Gwen|Gwen Stacy]] from tissue samples he had obtained from a class experiment. After many failed attempts, most notably Kaine, Warren succeeded in creating a clone that did not suffer cellular degeneration.

The Jackal pitted this clone against Spider-Man in a deathtrap involving a bomb and [[Hobgoblin (Ned Leeds)|Ned Leeds]]. The Jackal on scene, a clone of Warren, repented and saved Ned, dying as a result. With both Spider-Man and Spider-Man's clone unconscious, the real Jackal emerged, found who he thought was the real Spider-Man, and injected him with a drug to simulate death. The other Spider-Man awoke and dropped the "dead" body in a smokestack, where the Jackal implanted it with clone memories. However, his assistant, [[Trainer, Seward|Seward Trainer]], himself coerced by the [[Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)|Green Goblin]], had deceived the Jackal. The Spider-Man the Jackal recovered was the clone after all.

The clone spent five years wandering the country. During this time he met [[Godbe, Janine|Janine Godbe]], the love of his life. Janine, as a child, had been horribly abused by her father. She could bear it no longer, and she killed her father. She then met Ben Reilly. Their love was short-lived, as Janine apparently died.

Reviving and returning home, the clone discovered the other Peter already there. Now believing himself the imposter, the clone named himself after [[Parker, Ben (Uncle Ben)|"Uncle" Ben]] and [[Parker, May (Aunt May)|"Aunt" May Parker]] (née Reilly) and spent the next five years wandering, eventually developing new weapons for his occasional confrontations with Kaine and other criminals. He also met and was befriended by Seward Trainer. Ben anonymously called to check up on Aunt May occasionally, but did not return to New York until he heard that she had been hospitalized.

[[image:Scarlet_Spider.jpg|thumb|left|Scarlet Spider costume]] Upon his return to New York, Ben saved a young girl's life as well as stopped a burglar at a small corner shop. He learned that [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]] was back, and decided that he could not stand by without doing something. He adopted a new all red costume with a blue sleeveless hooded sweatshirt and was dubbed the Scarlet Spider. His return later triggered the release from stasis of the Jackal, who raised the possibility that Peter, not Ben, was the clone. When Seward Trainer, following up his earlier deception of the Jackal, announced that Ben was indeed the original Spider-Man, Ben assured Peter he had no intention of taking back his life. Together, Peter and Ben stopped the Jackal’s plan to unleash the Carrion virus on the world.

Originally distrustful of each other, the two Spider-Men developed an uneasy alliance that slowly grew to strong friendship. They introduced each other as cousins and considered themselves brothers. As Peter considered the impending responsibility of fatherhood, he relinquished the title of Spider-Man to Ben. But Ben created his own life, bleaching his hair and working at a coffee shop. As Spider-Man, Ben slightly modified the classic costume. For a period of time, Ben was taken over by the [[Carnage (Cletus Kasady)|Carnage]] symbiote and became Spider-Carnage, however the symbiote eventually returned to Cletus Kassady.

The degenerating clone known as Kaine always hated Ben Reilly, believing that Ben was the original. After a series of brutal battles, Kaine gave up and surrendered to the police after being saved by Reilly. During these battles, Janine returned after having faked her own death. During these same battles, Janine apparently died again, when in reality, she had been kidnapped by Kaine. After being rescued by Ben, she stopped running and gave herself up to the police.

Believing to the end that he was the real Spider-Man, Ben was killed by the [[Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)|Green Goblin]] (Norman Osborn), sacrificing his life to save Peter from the impaling spike of the Goblin's glider. Ben's body degenerated into dust immediately after his death, proving that he was the clone after all, and not Peter Parker.

bio_text= [[Hobgoblin (Jason Macendale)|Jason Macendale]], the newest Hobgoblin was down on his luck and having a hard time in the supervillain business. After being beaten up several times by [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]] and once by the [[Green Goblin (Harry Osborn)|Green Goblin]], he offered the demon [[N'astirh]] his soul in exchange for power during the [[Inferno (event) | Inferno]] crisis. N'astirh was amused by the mortals request he bonded a demon from the "[[Otherplace]]" with Jason, giving him superhuman and supernatural powers. Yet while he gained these grand new powers his body and face started to become an exact replica of the Hobgoblin mask. With his newfound powers the demonic Hobgoblin was hired to attack [[Doctor Strange (Stephen Strange)|Doctor Strange]] at an event. Jason agreed and began an assault against the sorcerer supreme, using his own mystical might against the doctors. Jason ultimately lost and then set out killing several different mercenaries until he was confronted by [[Moon Knight]]. The fight that then began eventually led to Moon Knight's mansion where Spider-Man joined the fight and the two heroes defeated the demonic Hobgoblin.

Jason was then taken to [[Tombs Prison]] and incarcerated where Jason Macendale and the entity now known as Demogoblin physically split apart. Demogoblin then broke out of jail and started to "cleanse the sinners". He was then rescued by the [[Doppelganger (Infinity War)| Doppelganger]] and was confronted by [[Code: Blue]], who took down Demogoblin despite not having any superpowers. Demogoblin was then once again captured, but this time telepathically summoned Doppelganger, who set him free. This caught the attention of Spider-Man who quickly rushed to apprehend Demogoblin and Doppelganger. During the battle [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]] was drawn into the fight and eventually [[Ghost Rider (Daniel Ketch)|Ghost Rider]] and [[Ghost Rider (John Blaze)|Blaze]] joined the battle, the result being Demogoblin's arrest again.

Some time later Moon Knight began to experience bizarre spells of dizziness and his face began to slowly decay. Deciding that Demogoblin was to blame he paid the demon a visit in jail and demanded to know what he had done to him. During a telepathic and physical scuffle Moon Knight learned that Demogoblin had planted a virus in him that was slowly taking over his body. The result of the virus separated from Moon Knight and became known as [[Pang]]. Moon Knight then defeated Demogoblin once again, leaving him in his jail cell. He was freed and joined a gang which included [[Carnage (Cletus Kasady)|Carnage]], [[Doppelganger (Infinity War) | Doppelganger]], [[Shriek]] and [[Carrion (Malcolm McBride)|Carrion]]. Together they torn New York apart until Spider-Man and his fellow super heroes put a stop to the madness.

Defeated once again Demogoblin became disheartened as he was taken back to prison. He busted out again sometime later and attempted to team up with [[Blade (Eric Brooks)|Blade]], sensing that he too wanted to punish the wicked. Blade however was corrupted by the [[Darkhold]] and killed Demogoblin. Demogoblin however was resurrected sometime later. He then ran afoul of Venom several times, he even ran into [[Morbius]] once or twice. Always beaten and sent back to prison he began to ponder his "mission". A few months later he broke out again and sought out Jason Macendale for forgiveness. When he finally caught up with Jason he asked him for his forgiveness, but Jason refused to believe it and the two started a fight in a local church. During the battle Demogoblin noticed a pillar which was dislodged during the battle was falling towards a mother and her young boy. Asking for forgiveness he rushed over and saved the mother and son, holding the pillar for a few seconds until it crashed on top of him. The pillars weight crushed Demogoblin, killing him.

{{bio|
bio_text= "Mattie" Franklin was a troubled youth who grew up with her father after her mother died when she was young. She was granted her powers when, after overhearing a phone call between her father and [[Norman Osborn]] about the Gathering of the Five, she took her father's place during the Gathering and was endowed with the awesome powers that Norman Osborn had wanted for himself. During one of [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)| Spider-Man]]'s temporary retirements, she wore a padded version of his costume and substituted for him. After Spider-Man's return, she assumed the identity of Spider-Woman. Eventually Charlotte Witter, a villain also going by the name of Spider-Woman, attacked her and stole her powers. Powerless, Mattie continued to fight Witter and managed not only to reabsorb her own powers, but also to absorb the powers of both previous Spider-Women (which Witter had also stolen) and Witter's own powers.

With the blessings of [[Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew)|Jessica Drew]] and Julia Carpenter, the first Spider-Women, she resumed the Spider-Woman mantle. Franklin eventually settled with her "Aunt" Marla Madison, and "Uncle" J. Jonah Jameson, both close friends with her father, and frequently varied the appearance of her costume. As Spider-Woman, she battled Flesh and Bones, Shadrac, the Shadowcaster, aliens looking to conquer Earth, the psychic projections of Brian Leighton (creating an amalgam of the [[Rhino]], [[Doctor Octopus (Otto Octavius)| Doctor Octopus]], [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]]), Miss Itch and Mr. Scratch, and a werewolf nun.

Mattie's father died, making her living arrangement with the Jamesons more permanent, as they became her foster parents. She was later seduced into a dark world of illegal drugs by boyfriend Denny Haynes, who used Mattie's own flesh as a source for a superhuman power-granting drug called MGH (Mutant Growth Hormone), before being rescued by Jessica Drew and [[Jones, Jessica|Jessica Jones]]. Jessica Drew resumed her role as Spider-Woman, while Mattie retired from superheroics, attending a support group with other young former superheroes.}}

Recently, Mattie was abducted alongside [[Madame Web]] by [[Nikolaevich, Sasha Aleksandra|Sasha]] and [[Kraven (Ana Kravinoff)|Ana Kravinoff]] in a plot to resurrect the long dead [[Kraven (Sergei Kravinoff)|Sergei Kravinoff]] by killing spider themed superhumans. Sasha and Ana took Mattie to a graveyard where they killed her in order to resurrect [[Grim Hunter (Vladimir Kravinoff)|Vladimir Kravinoff]].

Sandman (William Baker)

IRISH4869: adjusted a link

{{Powerbox|
universe = [[Marvel Universe]]
| real_name = William Baker

| identity = Known to legal authorities
| occupation = Professional criminal; former adventurer
| citizenship = U.S.A. with criminal record

| education = High school (incomplete)
| height = 6'1" (variable)
| weight = 240 lbs. (variable)
| eyes = Brown
| hair = Brown
| powers = The Sandman possesses the ability to convert all or part of his body into a sand-like substance by mental command. His brain has attained subliminal awareness of all granulated particles of his body. Through conscious effort, he can affect the degree of molecular cohesion between the numerous adjoining surfaces of his particles and thus cause locomotion of discrete volumes, down to the individual grains. His radically mutagenically altered body composition and increased density enable him to compact or loosen the particles of sand that make up his form. Consequently, the Sandman can become as hard as sandstone, or disperse his body so that he becomes invulnerable to physical attacks. He can shape his sand-state body into any continuous shape he can imagine. He can project his sand particles outward at high speeds and, when in the shape of a bulky object, with the impact of a large sandbag.

The Sandman is vulnerable to temperatures over 3,400 degrees Fahrenheit. Such temperatures can cause his highly impure silicate composition to fuse into amorphous silicate (glass). The Sandman maintains mental control of the particles of which his body is composed so that he can reform his scattered grains unless a substantial portion of his body mass has been isolated. Apparently, he can also convert common grains of sand around him into constituents of his body to replenish portions he might lose track of during battle. In this manner, he can increase his overall size and volume (to some as yet unknown limit), or that of his limbs.

There appears to be no limit to how long the Sandman can remain in his sand-state. If he were to be rendered unconscious while in his sand-state, he would remain in that state, although the relaxing of his control over his particles would cause him to become an amorphous pile of sand.

The Sandman's mind continues to function in astral form even when he has turned his head into sand and even when the particles of sand that composed his brain are widely scattered. The limit to how far the particles of his brain can be dispersed before he is unable to reassemble is not yet known.
| abilities = No known abilities
| weapons = Baker often forms his hands into simple objects of high density, such as large hammers or maces.
| paraphernalia = Marko briefly used a suit that he created with [[Mister Fantastic|Reed Richards]]' stolen equipment, that he used to mix chemicals with his sand to create new affects. Some of the chemicals could make his sand into a slippery puddle, adhere him to vertical walls, and coat him with a substance that would turn into a poisonous powder when heated by the [[Human Torch (Johnny Storm)|Human Torch]]'s flame.

}}{{bio|
bio_text= William Baker was born in a rough neighborhood in New York. Abandoned by his father when he was three-years old, William stole and cheated his way through adolescence. Expelled after accepting a bribe to throw a football game, he was accepted by a gang that ran extortion and protection rackets and adopted the alias Flint Marko.

He soon became very successful in the New York criminal underworld, but was arrested, convicted, and forced to spend many years in solitary confinement. Upon his released he discovered that his long time girlfriend Marcy Conroy had left him for Vic Rollins, another member of his gang. In a rage he got revenge on Rollins and started a lone citywide crime spree. Marko was captured and placed in a maximum-security wing at Ryker's Island prison but escaped through an unguarded drainage tunnel. With the FBI and police on his tail, Marko traveled south and sought refuge in a place where he was unlikely to be found: an atomic testing site near Savannah, Georgia. As he rested on a nearby beach, the experimental reactor's steam system exploded, bombarding him with a massive dose of radiation and apparently bonding his body with the sand. Awakening after a brief period of unconsciousness, Marko discovered his newly acquired ability to transform into a sand-like substance he could manipulate and reshape at will. Now easily able to elude authorities, the Sandman was born.

The Sandman embarked on a criminal career that led him into conflict with [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]], the [[Fantastic Four]], [[Hulk]], and many other heroes. After failing to defeat Spider-Man as a member of the [[Sinister Six]] under [[Doctor Octopus (Otto Octavius)|Doctor Octopus]], he joined forces with the [[Wizard]] who provided him with a belt that enabled him to produce a variety of dangerous and deadly effects through the injection of various chemicals. The Sandman and the Wizard then teamed with the [[Trapster]] to become the core members of the original [[Frightful Four]]. The team encountered many defeats at the hands of the Fantastic Four and they soon broke up. Marko later broke out of prison with the Wizard's help, and broke into the Baxter Building, briefly teaming up with [[Blastaar]] when he first escaped from the [[Negative Zone]].

[[image:Sandman-costumed-FF061Cvr.jpg|430px]]

Marko's criminal career was struck a major blow when he joined forces with [[Hydro-Man]] and in a freak mishap combined to form a grotesque, mud-like monster called the "Mud-Thing". The creature was subdued by the authorities and transported to a laboratory in Manhattan were scientists sought to analyze the composition of the unusual mud, but determined with the instruments at their disposal that it was inanimate. They decided to seal the substance in a container and dispose of it. As a delayed effect of the analytic procedures, the mud spontaneously separated into the two criminals, who burst free of their container.

The ordeal so traumatized Marko that he was stricken with a troubled conscience. Striking up a surprising friendship with the [[Thing (Benjamin Grimm)|Thing]] of the Fantastic Four, the Sandman soon talked of abandoning crime. When he encountered Spider-Man fighting the [[Enforcers]], the Sandman made good on his intentions and rescued the wall-crawler. Still a wanted man, the Sandman adopted the alias Sylvester Mann. He rented a room in Coney Island from a suburban family and decided to reform earning money as a contract worker for [[Silver Sable]] as a member of her [[Wild Pack]]. He joined the [[Outlaws]] for their brief time in existence, aiding Spider-Man. Though there was a period of suspicion as to whether his intentions were noble, he gained the public's trust and became a reserve member for the [[Avengers]] along with Spider-Man. Granted a pardon for his crimes, he returned to his birth name of William Baker. After he helped the Avengers defeat the sorceress [[Morgan Le Fay]] and stop the theft of military equipment, a minor misunderstanding with [[Captain America (Steve Rogers)|Captain America]] caused by his undisciplined temperament lead to his resignation from the reserve Avengers. However, the Sandman was determined to remain reformed. When Doctor Octopus blackmailed him into rejoining the Sinister Six, the Sandman turned against his former ally as soon as he had the chance.

Feeling the loss of his partner-in-crime, the Wizard kidnapped Baker and forcibly subjected him to a machine that amplified the underlying dark side of its subject's personality. The violent Flint Marko regained consciousness, and believed he had faked his well-intentioned heroics. He was not to be the Wizard's lackey.

The now-villainous Sandman re-formed the Sinister Six to seek revenge on Doctor Octopus, but [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]], turned on his teammates and took a large bite from Sandman. Weakened and poisoned by Venom, Baker began to lose bits of himself until he eventually dissipated. Delirious from his condition, he sought out Spider-Man to exact his final vengeance. In his weakened state he was unable to defeat the wall-crawler. With his last bit of strength, he made peace with Spider-Man and asked that he say goodbye to his mother for him. The despondent Sandman then lost cohesion and was washed away into a New York City storm drain.

The Sandman's dispersed body was eventually washed up onto a beach, where his consciousness remained in a coma-like state. Eventually, a television rock concert awoke Sandman, who began to attack the concert-goers. Eventually, the Sandman gathered enough strength to re-form his body, but his mind was still heavily damaged.

The Sandman began to split into different versions of himself - his good side, his evil side, his inner child, and his feminine side - each taking on a different aspect of his emotions. With the aid of Spider-Man, the Sandman was able to reabsorb his duplicates and returned to his single, villainous form. However, Sandman once again partnered with Spider-Man. With his father [[Baker, Floyd|Floyd Baker]] facing imminent execution for the murder of a homeless vagrant (described as bearing the likeness of Spider-Man's long-dead "Uncle Ben") the Sandman worked to rescue or exonerate his father. Spider-Man and the Sandman discovered the true murderer was the monstrous [[Chameleon (Earth-9500)|Chameleon]] of the future year 2211 from [[Earth-9500]]. Floyd Baker narrowly missed execution by the electric chair, and was exonerated (though ungrateful of his son's efforts).

{{teamhistory|
bio_text = Freedom Force was a Government created team, led by [[Mystique]], under the direct supervision of [[Cooper, Valerie|Valerie Cooper]]. The one stipulation Mystique had was that the members of the team be pardoned for all previous criminal acts. After Valerie agreed she sent them on a mission to capture [[Magneto (Magnus)|Magneto]] which led them into a confrontation with the [[X-Men]]. After the fight Magneto gave himself over to Freedom Force in order to stand trail for his crimes against humanity. After Freedom Force took Magneto into custody [[Spider-Woman (Julia Carpenter)|Spider-Woman]] joined the team in order to serve her country.

The next mission that Freedom Force was sent on was to arrest the X-Men in San Francisco. This time however Mystique and [[Destiny (Irene Adler)|Destiny]] were not with the group and [[Pyro]] was left in charge. Under his leadership Freedom Force managed to defeat the X-Men, but when the cops arrived it was discovered that they didn't have the proper paperwork to arrest the group. Outraged, the team left San Francisco and accepted a new mission to arrest [[Collins, Rusty|Rusty Collins]]. During the pursuit of Rusty, Freedom Force came into conflict with [[X-Factor]] causing them to fight in the populated streets of New York and eventually into the sewers. During the fight Mystique recognized [[Archangel|Warren Worthington III]] and later told the press that the [[X-Factor|X-Terminators]] were frauds. Freedom Force then left the battle after Destiny received premonitions of the upcoming [[Mutant Massacre]].

Freedom Force is then ordered to arrest the [[Avengers]] and [[Avengers West Coast]] and the team arrives at a stadium where the two teams were playing baseball. With an arrest warrant this time Mystique orders the Avengers to surrender. The Avengers refuse and a fight breaks out between all the Avengers and Freedom Force. Freedom Force managed to win the battle and took the Avengers into custody. At a trial some time later the Avengers east and west coast were charged with treason and locked away in the [[Vault]]. The members of Freedom Force gloated over their victory, except for Spider-Woman who refused to believe the Avengers were traitors. Finally deciding to do something about she broke the two Avenger teams out of the Vault and set them free. Enraged by their betrayal Mystique asked [[Gyrich, Henry Peter|Henry Gyrich]] if the Freedom Fighters can pursue the escaped Avengers. Gyrich denies them permission and instead sends [[Quicksilver]] to catch them.

Sometime later [[Blob]], [[Pyro]], and [[Avalanche]] were assigned to help train the new Captain America, [[U.S.Agent|John Walker]]. During a training session Walker took out Pyro and Avalanche easily, but is taken down by the Blob. A few hours later Walker and Lemar Hoskins the new [[Battlestar (Lemar Hoskins)|Bucky]] encounter the Freedom Force and are ridiculed for their performance in the training session. Then sometime later [[Commando (Frank Bohannan)|Crimson Commando]], [[Stonewall]], and [[Super Sabre]] joined the team in exchange for being pardoned. During their initiation Destiny received a vision of the X-Men's death. In the next few days Freedom Force is introduced to the public while Mystique warned her adopted daughter [[Rogue]] of Destiny's vision. Rogue ignored Mystiques warning and went to Dallas with the other X-men. Still concerned with Rogue's safety Freedom Force followed them and tried to arrest the team. Refusing to yield the two teams clash until many of the X-Men are knocked out and Mystique is taken hostage by the entity known as the [[Adversary]], who appeared and began to warp reality. Deciding to work together they saved several civilians from the reality warping affects of the Adversary. During a battle against the hordes Adversary summoned, Super Sabre and Pyro are severely injured and are rushed to safety by Blob and Mystique. Unable to help the X-Men fight the Adversary directly they watch from a nearby cameraman’s van as the building the X-Men were occupying collapsed. Believing the X-men to be due to a spell cast by [[Forge]], Mystique curses him.

Freedom Force is then ordered to protect Forge from the [[New Mutants]]; the team encounters the young mutants and defeats them. After the battle Destiny warns the New Mutants of the upcoming [[Inferno]], and then decides to let the kids go. Still in Dallas, Destiny has another vision, this time of Cyclops and Jean Grey coming to confront them. Prepared with this information they wait for the two X-Men. When Scott and Jean finally do arrive they question Freedom Force about their son [[Cable|Nathan]]. Refusing to give them any information, they get into a fight which ends with Scott and Jean winning. Feeling sorry for the two Destiny gives them information on their son's whereabouts.

Several Weeks later X-Factor defeats the [[Alliance of Evil]] and Freedom Force shows up and takes the Alliance into custody. Before they leave they insist that X-Factor register with the mutant registration act. After some discussion X-Factor agrees and signs with phony names. Rusty Collins, who is with them refuses to sign, but gives himself up in order to stand trail for his past crimes. Freedom Forces next assignment was to arrest a group of mutant terrorists known as the [[Resistants]] with the help of the new Captain American, John Walker, using a mock trial of [[Quicksilver]] to draw the terrorists out. As the Resistants arrive on the scene they spot Captain America and realize it’s a trap, they cause a nearby building to crumble forcing Freedom Force to save the civilians in the building, letting the Resistants get away.

Some time later, [[Kelly, Robert|Senator Robert Kelly]] was kidnapped by a drug dealer named [[Senior Muerte]]. Ordered to rescue the Senator, Freedom Force arrives on the scene and is assaulted by a team of second rate villains called the [[Grip]]. After beating the Grip, the team rescued Senator Kelly and returned to Washington. Freedom Force next arrived on the scene when X-factor defeated [[Nanny (cyborg)|Nanny]] and freed some kidnapped children. Freedom Force told X-Factor that they would take care of the children and that Rusty Collins was cleared and free.

[[Spiral (Rita Wayword)|Spiral]] then sends Blob and Pyro on a mission to register a little mutant girl known as [[Amanda (Mutant)|Amanda]] in a small undisclosed town. As they chase Amanda, trying to catch her they are attacked by [[Daredevil (Matthew Murdock)|Daredevil]] and are beaten. Spiral then shows up and scolds the two for their blunder. After some time Freedom Force again try to arrest Rusty Collins, but are stopped by both the New Mutants and [[Skids]]. After a skirmish with the team Dani is hurt and the New Mutants decide to help her and let Skids protect Rusty. After a few hours of hiding behind Skids force field Freedom Force finally captures the two young mutants.

Later Destiny foresees her own death before Freedom Force is assigned to their next mission. Freedom Force is then ordered to help Forge on [[Muir Island]]. Mystique, despite her hatred for Forge agrees. As they arrive on the island they are attacked by a group of cyborg mercenaries called the [[Reavers]]. During the battle Mystique sends Destiny away and orders Forge to guard her. Destiny then later tells Forge that Mystique needs him more than she does and he leaves her to join the battle. Destiny then encounters [[Legion (David Haller)|Legion]] and is killed. The other members of Freedom Force continue to fight the Reavers and Stonewall is killed by [[Pierce, Donald|Donald Pierce]]. After Forge rescues his teammates Mystique learns of Destiny's death and swears revenge on Forge for killing both Rogue and Destiny.

Mystique still on Muir Island is confronted by a future version of herself and decides to take some time off to mourn Destiny's death. She then takes Destiny's ashes on a cruise and scatters them out to sea. Elsewhere Blob, Pyro, and Avalanche attack the Avengers and are defeated easily. Later Mystique rejoins the team and sends Blob, Pyro, and Crimson Commando are sent on a mission to find the [[Hulk (Bruce Banner)|Hulk]] in South Carolina. Upon arriving in the small town they encounter the Hulk and one by one are defeated, until Crimson Commando shows his valor by saving a child from some wreckage. The Hulk talks with the Commando for a while and then decks him, knocking him out. The Hulk then leaves Freedom Force where they laid.

After some time Rusty and Skids manage to escape prison in order to stop the [[Vulture (Adrian Toomes)|Vulture]] and [[Nitro]] from blowing up several city blocks. Freedom Force arrives on the scene and takes the two mutants back into custody. Mystique later questions Skids about the [[Mutant Liberation Front]]. Realizing that Skids knows nothing about them she leaves Skids. Later during that day the Front arrives and rescues both Rusty and Skids.

Somehow Freedom Force had made [[Cable]] their prisoner and Pyro, Blob, Super Sabre, and the Commando question him about the Mutant Liberation Front. He refuses and the team leaves the room. Cable manages to escape his cell and the members of Freedom Force chase after him. During their chase Super Sabre is almost decapitated by a wire and Cable manages to escape. Later the Freedom Force members search the city for Cable and manage to find him. As Blob, Pyro, Super Sabre, and Commando start to beat Cable up the New Mutants arrive and defeat the four Freedom Force members.

Later [[Frost, Emma|Emma Frost]] sends false information to Freedom Force about [[Firestar]]. Determining that she would be a perfect candidate to join the team, they track her down and ask her to join. After refusing a few times the team attacks her. The team then joins forces with Firestar to fight an organization known as the [[Arms of Salvation]]. After the battle with the criminal organization they decide Firestar is not "Freedom Force material" and wishes her well on her future adventures.

Sometime late Freedom Force and the Avengers are called in to stop a prison break at the maximum security prison, the [[Vault]]. The team confronts several villains such as [[Hydro-Man]], [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]], [[Mentallo]], and the [[Controller]]. After the crisis at the Raft was dealt with, Freedom Force returns to their headquarters in Washington.

One night Mystique is shot by Valerie Cooper who is possessed by the [[Shadow King]]. Later it is said on the TV that Mystique was in fact dead, but this was untrue. The remaining team consisting of Super Sabre, Crimson Commando, Blob, Pyro, and Avalanche are sent on a [[Killing Stroke|mission]] to Kuwait where they are to rescue a scientist. As they retrieve the professor Super Sabre is decapitated and killed, while Crimson Commando's right arm is cut off. The team then sees their attackers, the Arabian super team called [[Desert Sword]]. The two teams clash and during the battle the professor is killed. Deciding that their mission is a bust Avalanche carries the Crimson Commando to a rescue helicopter and leaves Blob and Pyro to fend for themselves. Blob and Pyro were eventually caught and put into jail until the [[Toad]] bartered for their freedom if they joined the new [[Brotherhood Of Mutants|Brotherhood of Evil Mutants]]. After the incident in Kuwait, Freedom Force was disbanded.

{{bio|
bio_text= Born into a long line of Irish New York police officers, Patrick Mulligan was living his family's dream. Recently married to a loving woman named [[Mulligan, Gina|Gina]], the couple had a baby on the way, and his NYPD career was going perfectly.
However, Patrick didn't expect a chance encounter with the psychotic [[Carnage (Cletus Kasady)|Carnage]], who was enraged at his own impending asexual pregnancy. Carnage implanted Patrick with his "other", and left the new Symbiote to incubate within him. At the same time, [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]] argued with Carnage over the Symbiote offspring. Carnage insisted on killing it, but Venom was concerned that as the 1,000th Symbiote of their line, "Toxin" could potentially become psychotic as a result of genetic breakdown. Carnage tracked his offspring to Patrick's apartment, and threw Gina down a stairwell. [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]] was able to save Gina, while [[Black Cat]] managed to distract Carnage.

Patrick continued his life, haunted by his encounter with Carnage. He soon discovered that he was much faster and stronger than before, and was easily able to subdue Black Cat before she could escape his questioning. However, Carnage interrupted the conversation, attacking Patrick and the Cat. Patrick became Toxin, saving Cat. Though unnerved by his transformation, Patrick decided that his new powers could be used for good. Teaming up with Spider-Man to stop an armed robbery, Patrick found himself filled with murderous urges. He struggled to keep himself together, telling Spider-Man that he was only "joking" about eating the robbers' brains.

Mulligan later used his powers to save Spider-Man and Black Cat from Venom and Carnage, beating them both single-handedly. He realized that he had much in common with Spider-Man and made the web-slinger his role model.[[Image:Toxin inline.jpg|left]] Realizing his presence was putting Gina and newborn [[Mulligan, Edward|Edward]] in serious danger, Pat left them behind, offering Gina little explanation. Patrick now walked the streets of New York alone, as Toxin, hoping to learn as much as he could from Spider-Man.

A short time after fighting Venom and Carnage, Toxin began helping to find the escaped criminals from the [[Raft]]. The first criminal he hunted down was [[King Cobra]]. Patrick visited [[Mister Hyde|Mr. Hyde]] at [[Ryker's Island]], hoping to obtain information on King Cobra. Hyde gave no help, but did give a piece of King Cobra's skin he had previously shed. Using the piece of skin, Toxin located Cobra, and after a small scuffle, defeated him. After the battle, Spider-Man came to Pat enlisting his aid to bring in the criminal [[Razor-Fist (Douglas Scott)|Razor-Fist]], giving him a bloody bandage to aid in Toxin's hunt.

At this point in his life it was becoming continually more difficult for Mulligan to control the symbiote. Toxin liked the violence, and it was getting increasingly harder for Patrick to refrain from killing. Eventually, Toxin was able to locate Razor Fist, but instead of changing into Toxin, he changed into a small, middle-aged man, Toxin called Larry. A twisted joke Toxin decided to play on Pat for never letting him have any "fun". After Patrick pleaded for the symbiote's help, he eventually emerged. After a short fight, RazorFist escaped. Toxin then defeated and captured the criminal known as The [[Answer (Aaron Nicholson)|Answer]]. Patrick could think of only one to solution the childlike monster that brought out his worst: suicide.

Mulligan attempted to jump in front of a subway train, but was saved by the symbiote (who viewed this as "a cry for help"). After the attempted suicide, Toxin brought down the [[Wrecker (Dirk Garthwaite)|Wrecker]] and [[Piledriver (Brian Calusky)|Piledriver]], two members of the criminal group known as the [[Wrecking Crew]]. Patrick and Toxin made an agreement to allow Pat two hours a day to become Larry and see his family, and Toxin would in turn get two hours late at night for "playtime". Conditions of the agreement being no acts of arson, grand theft, or homicide. RazorFist killed Mulligan's father in an attempt to gain information about Patrick. Toxin found and beat RazorFist, taking his razor fists, and bringing him to justice.

| weight = 190 lbs/685 lbs (variable,with symbiote).
| eyes = Green

| powers = As the symbiote offspring of the Venom symbiote, the Carnage symbiote possesses a variety of symbiote-based powers akin to [[Venom (Mac Gargan)|Venom]], which it generally bestows upon Cletus Kasady. Carnage possesses super-human strength, speed, stamina, healing and resistance to injury. He is orginally able to lift(press) 50 tons (currently 90 tons).

Carnage can stick to walls, create "swing lines" or "tendrils" which he uses for traveling in a manner similar to how Spider-Man uses webbing, generate "snares" to trap or entangle foes. However, unlike Venom, he is able to create detachable weapons made entirely from his symbiotic. The symbiote can protect Kasady from bullets from small-arms weapons. The symbiote can mimic any type of clothing, but unlike Venom, it has not been seen capable of Venom's chameleon-like ability to act as camouflage. Carnage is able to deaden Spider-Man's spider-sense to a certain degree, and block the Venom symbiote's natural ability to track its own offspring.

It is vulnerable to sonics (to a much lesser degree than Venom) and heat (to a much greater degree than Venom).

}}{{bio|
bio_text= Carnage was once a serial killer known as Cletus Kasady, and became Carnage after merging with the offspring of the alien symbiote called [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]] during a prison breakout. The symbiote amplified his psychotic nature making him even less mentally stable than he had been previously, and therefore even more dangerous. An interesting note is that, unlike Venom, Carnage is a singular entity, referring to himself as "I" instead of "We", because the symbiote has actually merged into Kasady's bloodstream. Carnage is also the "father" of [[Toxin]]. A note on his childhood: Cletus' father killed his wife (Cletus' mother) because she tried to kill Cletus. Cletus then testified in court against him, saying that he killed her for no reason, causing him to die by electric chair as means of punishment.[[image:Carnage inline.jpg|left]] It is also unclear on Cletus' relationship with his mother, as he seems to have feelings for her, causing him to dig up her grave at the end of [[Maximum Carnage|his massacre through New York]]. He also revealed that he killed his grandmother when he was younger, pushing her down a flight of stairs. Since the alien symbiote adapts to the host's personality, the Carnage symbiote is affected by Kasady's insane mind and lust for destruction.

Kasady has been separated and re-attached to the symbiote multiple times. The Carnage symbiote has occasionally attached itself to other hosts, including the [[Silver Surfer]], [[Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly)|Ben Reilly]] (a clone of [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]]), and [[Doctor Octopus (Otto Octavius)|Doctor Octopus]]. Venom later decided to absorb the Carnage symbiote "for good", during which Kasady retained the Carnage persona by costuming himself in red paint and continuing his killing sprees (albeit as a powerless human). This was short lived, however, as Kasady coincidentally found an exact replica of the symbiote in the [[Negative Zone]]. As to whether or not the symbiote is a separate entity, "permanently" bonded, or his own blood mutated, has not been revealed. The symbiote once chose to leave Kasady and bond with Ben Reilly. Kasady, without the symbiote, rapidly aged and his body quickly deteriorated. In this state, Kasady was barely able to function, having a hard time operating a sink, let alone being a threat. The symbiote bonded with him again in time to save his life, regenerating his health. When the symbiote abandoned him yet again, this time to join with the [[Silver Surfer]] (transforming him into the Carnage Cosmic), Kasady was left dying from an accelerated form of stomach cancer (apparently a side-effect of the symbiosis, also suffered by Eddie Brock, the original Venom). However, when Venom ate the symbiote, he did not deteriorate, indicating that perhaps some fragments of the symbiote were left behind (enough to sustain him but not enough to form the costume). This may be backed up by the fact that Kasady seemed to retain at least some enhanced strength.

Later, Venom and Spider-Man had to team up to stop Carnage. During this time it was revealed that the symbiote had become a part of Kasady's blood and was irremovable from him. Kasady only needed to be cut for the symbiote to flood out to become Carnage once again. Unlike Venom, Carnage had become less vulnerable to the high-pitched sounds which would normally stop Venom, however he was still vulnerable to intense heat.

[[Image:Sentry carnage .jpg|left|200px|thumb|Sentry tearing Carnage in half on Earth's orbit]]Recently, Carnage was one of many super-villains trying to escape from the [[Raft]]. He tried to kill couple helpless civilians who were there to meet another inmate called [[Sentry (Robert Reynolds)|Sentry]]. Who then intervened and flew Carnage outside of the Earth's atmosphere, where he ripped him apart. Kasady was presumably killed and has not been seen since.

bio_text = Dirk Garthwaite was the son of Burt Garthwaite, a loutish construction worker and abusive father. Dirk grew up to become a burglar, wielding a crowbar as his chief weapon to remind himself of the crowbar his father used. Dirk once broke into a hotel room and overpowered its occupant, the Asgardian god [[Loki]], who had just requested mystical enhancements from [[Karnilla]] the Norn Queen to oppose [[Thor (Thor Odinson)|Thor]]. Karnilla accidentally cast the spell upon Dirk instead. Becoming the [[Wrecker (Dirk Garthwaite)|Wrecker]], Dirk went on a rampage, battling Thor, but was finally beaten by the magical [[Destroyer (construct)|Destroyer]] construct, animated by the spirit of [[Sif]].

During a subsequent battle with Thor, the Wrecker struck the third rail of a subway track and the magic powering him was driven from his body into the crowbar. Without the crowbar, he was sent to Ryker's Island. There, he befriended fellow convicts Dr. Eliot Franklin, Brian Philip Calusky and Henry Camp, and arranged to spring them when he made his escape to retrieve the crowbar. Obtaining the crowbar, the Wrecker had his three friends grasp it with him in an electrical storm, and the storm transferred the power stored within it amongst the four of them. Franklin became [[Thunderball]]; Calusky became [[Piledriver (Brian Calusky)|Piledriver]]; and Camp became [[Bulldozer (Henry Camp)|Bulldozer]]. Together, they became known as the Wrecking Crew.

Thunderball had previously built a Gamma Bomb for [[Richmond Enterprises]], but executive J.C. Pennysworth had stolen it and Franklin had been sent to prison while trying to steal it back. He convinced his allies that they should capture the bomb and use it to ransom New York. They began to tear apart buildings owned by Richmond Enterprises to find the bomb, attracting the attention of the [[Defenders]], including [[Nighthawk (Kyle Richmond)|Nighthawk]]. The Crew was defeated by the Defenders and dispersed to different prisons.

After regaining his crowbar, the Wrecker freed his allies and they decided to publicly defeat Thor in order to salvage their reputations. When they encountered [[Iron Fist (Danny Rand)|Iron Fist]] and threatened his girlfriend [[Knight, Misty|Misty Knight]], Iron Fist offered to gain them access to [[Avengers Mansion]] in order to save her. The Wrecking Crew invaded the mansion, finding only [[Captain America (Steve Rogers)|Captain America]] present; but he and Iron Fist managed to outfight the Wrecking Crew, and they were all sent back to prison. From his cell at Ryker's, the Wrecker concentrated upon his crowbar's power and used it to compel a guard to release him. He and the Wrecking Crew finally had their first shot at Thor as a team, but Thor bested them all, and only Thunderball escaped. Thunderball acted on his own for a while, battling [[Rhodes, James|Iron Man]], and later recovering the crowbar for himself and battling [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]], but he was ultimately sent back to Ryker's.

The Wrecking Crew were freed by the [[Maker|Beyonder]] and transported to '[[Battleworld]]' to serve in [[Doctor Doom (Victor von Doom)|Doctor Doom]]'s army of super-villains against the heroes gathered there. They proved to be useful thugs for Doom's purposes, but they finally abandoned him after he gained the Beyonder's power, returning to Earth with the aid of the [[Molecule Man]]. The entire Wrecking Crew then joined [[Baron Zemo (Helmut)|Baron Zemo]]'s [[Masters of Evil]] and helped provide intelligence on [[Hercules (Heracles)|Hercules]], uncovering the [[Avengers|Avenger]]'s drinking problem. The Wrecking Crew joined with [[Atlas (Erik Josten)|Goliath]] and [[Mister Hyde]] in a savage assault on Hercules at Avengers Mansion that left him comatose. When Thor came to avenge his comrade, he used the power of his hammer to transfer all of the Wrecking Crew's energies back into the crowbar, and the Wrecker himself was beaten in combat by Captain America.

The Wrecker soon escaped prison and freed the Crew, and they continued to use Zemo's remaining resources while they prepared to regain their powers. Thunderball began rebuilding the Gamma Bomb in the hopes of another blackmail attempt, but his one-time use of the crowbar had left him craving its power, and he ultimately turned on the Wrecker, wanting all the power for himself. Faced with the combined powers of Spider-Man and [[Spider-Woman (Julia Carpenter)|Spider-Woman]], the divided Wrecking Crew fell. The Wrecking Crew participated in the so-called '[[Acts of Vengeance]]'. Thunderball fought the [[Fantastic Four]], the Wrecker fought Iron Man. The entire Crew fought [[Damage Control]], who were secretly aided by Thunderball (who was friends with Damage Control's [[Porter, John|John Porter]]). The Wrecker continued to resent Thunderball's attempts at claiming his power and mantle of leadership, and began to hunt the now-powerless Franklin. The Wrecker tracked Franklin to his Yancy Street safehouse, but encountered the [[Thing (Benjamin Grimm)|Thing]] there and was beaten. The entire Crew were imprisoned at the [[Vault]] for a time, participating in an uprising when [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]] staged a breakout. Thunderball opposed even Venom's leadership and led a splinter team of escapees against the Avengers when they tried to lockdown the facility, but he finally sided with the Avengers to help stop a core breach in the Vault.

Finally escaping the Vault, the Wrecker and Thunderball were forced to establish a working relationship, but could never entirely trust one another again. The Crew faced Hercules again, and battling them helped Hercules overcome the fear of combat he had suffered since his beating at their hands.

They later fought the NYPD's special task force [[Code: Blue]] while holding a hostage, and lost their hostage to the police squad. Ultimately, Loki decided that he wanted the power of the Wrecker for himself, since it had been meant for him, and while the Crew were battling Thor and the [[Ghost Rider (Daniel Ketch)|Ghost Rider]], he had the [[Enchantress]] and [[Ulik]] bring down each member of the Crew, until only the Wrecker remained. Loki proceeded to torture the Wrecker, and finally cast him into another dimension.

Deprived of the Wrecker's power, Thunderball worked with the [[Secret Empire]], and was outfitted with armor which mimicked some of his magical abilities. They attempted to harness the powers of [[Nova (Richard Rider)|Nova]], but were opposed by the combined forces of Spider-Man, [[Moon Knight]], [[Darkhawk]], [[Night Thrasher]] and the [[Punisher (Frank Castle)|Punisher]], and ultimately surrendered to them.

The Wrecker finally returned to Earth and was reunited with the Crew, but their powers began fading when many of [[Asgard]]'s links to Earth were separated after Odin attempted to evade Ragnarok, and they were defeated by Code: Blue. They were then hired by [[Zola, Arnim|Arnim Zola]] to battle the [[Thunderbolts]] (unaware that the Thunderbolts included many of their former allies in the Masters of Evil), receiving an artificial power boost from him, but the Crew once again lost.

Defeated again by Spider-Man, the [[Sub-Mariner]] and the Thing, the Crew were next hired by the [[Doomsday Man]] to locate [[Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers)|Warbird]], formally his enemy Ms. Marvel. They decided to start robbing banks to bring her out. They wound up battling the Avengers, and were accidentally sent to Polemachus by the [[Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff)|Scarlet Witch]]. In [[Polemachus]], they set out to defeat [[Arkon]] and [[Thundra]] so that they could rule that dimension and claim its energies to repower themselves, but the Avengers followed them there and defeated them despite their use of Avenger Photon as a living power battery.

The Crew battled Thor and the [[Warriors Three]] next, and Thunderball nearly killed [[Hogun|Hogun the Grim]]. Thor caught up to the Crew and beat them all. After this, the Crew were shuffled to several prisons, including the [[Cage]], [[Seagate]] and the [[Big House]], making escapes along the way to battle the Fantastic Four. They were also made pawns by the sorceress [[Morgan Le Fay]], who replaced Thunderball with her magical agent the [[Knight]] in disguise, all as part of her plan to claim the enchanted arrows of [[Hawkeye (Clint Barton)|Hawkeye]]; but the Crew were defeated by the Avengers and [[Lionheart|Kelsey Leigh]], who was resurrected as the new Captain Britain after the Knight slew her.

Piledriver decided that the Wrecking Crew should be preparing for their later years by training a new generation into the Crew, and brought his teenage son Ricky onboard as [[Excavator]]. Learning that the [[Pride]], one-time criminal masterminds of Los Angeles had apparently been slain, the Crew decided to hit banks there now that the Pride were no longer in control, and because of the smaller super-hero population. However, Excavator's presence had drawn the attention of the Pride’s [[Runaways|children]], the herioc Runaways, who came to return him to his grandparents. They beat the entire 5-man Wrecking Crew in battle, and left them for the police.

The Wrecking Crew were sent to the [[Raft]], but escaped during the mass breakout. The Wrecker and Piledriver set out to find the Wrecker's 'spare' crowbar which he had hidden in the Museum of Modern Art, and to steal the paintings there. However they were defeated by [[Toxin]]. The Wrecker managed to get away again, but was recaptured by the new team of Avengers which had formed in the aftermath of the Raft breakout. The other members of the Wrecking Crew are still at large.

bio_text = Escaping prison and wanting revenge against [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]], [[Doctor Octopus (Otto Octavius)|Doctor Octopus]] organized former wall-crawler foes [[Electro (Maxwell Dillon)|Electro]], [[Kraven (Sergei Kravinoff)|Kraven the Hunter]] (Sergei Kravinoff), [[Mysterio (Quentin Beck)|Mysterio]] (Quentin Beck), [[Sandman (William Baker)|Sandman]], and the [[Vulture (Adrian Toomes)|Vulture]] into the Sinister Six. Though he promised a "foolproof plan", Octavius merely arranged the kidnapping of [[Brant, Betty|Betty Brant]] and, incidentally, [[Parker, May (Aunt May)|May Parker]], which enraged the wall-crawler into top fighting form. The contentious Six could only agree to attack Spider-Man individually, insuring their defeat.

Years later, Octopus reunited the group, coercing the reformed Sandman to join by threatening to kill the family with whom he boarded and replacing the deceased Kraven with [[Hobgoblin (Jason Macendale)|Hobgoblin]]. His plan to steal a soon-to-be-launched satellite in order to spray poison into the atmosphere was actually a blind to spray a substance that caused convulsions in cocaine users. Octopus alone held the antidote, burundite, which he planned to sell to addicts, turning on his partners and keeping all proceeds for himself. The substance was successfully released but negated when [[Thor (Thor Odinson)|Thor]] released the burundite in the upper atmosphere as well. The betrayed five teamed up to gain revenge on Ock but ended up joining him in a scheme to steal weapons and retrieve the immense Tsiln race's [[Gog (Tsiln)|Gog]] from another dimension in order to take over [[Hydra]]'s satellite setup. When Sandman rebelled, he was turned to glass and shattered by Ock; Gog took his place in the group. As Spider-Man, the [[Fantastic Four]], [[Hulk (Bruce Banner)|Hulk]] (Bruce Banner), [[Sleepwalker]], [[Nova (Richard Rider)|Nova]] (Richard Rider), [[Ghost Rider (Daniel Ketch)|Ghost Rider]] (Daniel Ketch), [[Deathlok (Michael Collins)|Deathlok]] (Michael Collins) and [[Solo]] (James Bourne) fought the others, a reconstituted Sandman attacked Octopus, nearly killing him.

Ock was later murdered by the Peter Parker clone [[Kaine]], his tentacles and notes seized by the government. His cousin [[Hargrove, Elias|Elias Hargrove]], an unwitting dupe of Mysterio who manipulated the others for his own ends, reunited the surviving members, minus Sandman, to retrieve these possessions, but Spider-Man, the [[Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly)|Scarlet Spider]] (Ben Reilly) and Kaine ruined the scheme. [[image: sinistersix01.jpg|thumb|right|260px]]Frightened by Kaine's murders of other Spider-Man foes, Electro, Hobgoblin, Mysterio and Vulture joined with [[MACH-IV|Beetle]], [[Shocker (Herman Schultz)|Shocker]] and [[Scorpia]] to form the Sinister Seven. They hoped to stop Kaine by attacking him first but were nearly killed in the encounter. The Six, including a resurrected Dr. Octopus, were later regathered for an elaborate, yet ultimately futile, plot to destroy Spider-Man and gain immeasurable wealth by destroying the world's monetary system.

Still angered over his treatment by Dr. Octopus, the Sandman, reverted to evil by the [[Wizard]]'s id machine, reorganized the group, with [[Mysterio (Daniel Berkhart)|Daniel Berkhart]] replacing the deceased Quentin Beck as Mysterio, [[Kravinoff, Alyosha|Alyosha Kravinoff]] appearing as the new Kraven, and [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]] (Edward Brock) horning in as the sixth member. They attacked Ock and Senator [[Ward, Stewart|Stewart Ward]], only to be repelled by Ward's alien-implanted powers.

* Note: There has been a group called [[Sinister Twelve]] that was led by [[Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)|Norman Osborn]] and [[Sinister Syndicate]] that was led by [[MACH-IV|Beetle]]

{{bio|
bio_text= Born into a long line of Irish New York police officers, Patrick Mulligan was living his family's dream. Recently married to a loving woman named [[Mulligan, Gina|Gina]], the couple had a baby on the way, and his NYPD career was going perfectly.
However, Patrick didn't expect a chance encounter with the psychotic [[Carnage (Cletus Kasady)|Carnage]], who was enraged at his own impending asexual pregnancy. Carnage implanted Patrick with his "other", and left the new Symbiote to incubate within him. At the same time, [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]] argued with Carnage over the Symbiote offspring. Carnage insisted on killing it, but Venom was concerned that as the 1,000th Symbiote of their line, "Toxin" could potentially become psychotic as a result of genetic breakdown. Carnage tracked his offspring to Patrick's apartment, and threw Gina down a stairwell. [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]] was able to save Gina, while [[Black Cat]] managed to distract Carnage.

Patrick continued his life, haunted by his encounter with Carnage. He soon discovered that he was much faster and stronger than before, and was easily able to subdue Black Cat before she could escape his questioning. However, Carnage interrupted the conversation, attacking Patrick and the Cat. Patrick became Toxin, saving Cat. Though unnerved by his transformation, Patrick decided that his new powers could be used for good. Teaming up with Spider-Man to stop an armed robbery, Patrick found himself filled with murderous urges. He struggled to keep himself together, telling Spider-Man that he was only "joking" about eating the robbers' brains.

Mulligan later used his powers to save Spider-Man and Black Cat from Venom and Carnage, beating them both single-handedly. He realized that he had much in common with Spider-Man and made the web-slinger his role model.[[Image:Toxin inline.jpg|left]] Realizing his presence was putting Gina and newborn [[Mulligan, Edward|Edward]] in serious danger, Pat left them behind, offering Gina little explanation. Patrick now walked the streets of New York alone, as Toxin, hoping to learn as much as he could from Spider-Man.

A short time after fighting Venom and Carnage, Toxin began helping to find the escaped criminals from the [[Raft]]. The first criminal he hunted down was [[King Cobra]]. Patrick visited [[Mister Hyde|Mr. Hyde]] at [[Ryker's Island]], hoping to obtain information on King Cobra. Hyde gave no help, but did give a piece of King Cobra's skin he had previously shed. Using the piece of skin, Toxin located Cobra, and after a small scuffle, defeated him. After the battle, Spider-Man came to Pat enlisting his aid to bring in the criminal [[Razor-Fist (Douglas Scott)|Razor-Fist]], giving him a bloody bandage to aid in Toxin's hunt.

At this point in his life it was becoming continually more difficult for Mulligan to control the symbiote. Toxin liked the violence, and it was getting increasingly harder for Patrick to refrain from killing. Eventually, Toxin was able to locate Razor Fist, but instead of changing into Toxin, he changed into a small, middle-aged man, Toxin called Larry. A twisted joke Toxin decided to play on Pat for never letting him have any "fun". After Patrick pleaded for the symbiote's help, he eventually emerged. After a short fight, RazorFist escaped. Toxin then defeated and captured the criminal known as The [[Answer (Aaron Nicholson)|Answer]]. Patrick could think of only one to solution the childlike monster that brought out his worst: suicide.

Mulligan attempted to jump in front of a subway train, but was saved by the symbiote (who viewed this as "a cry for help"). After the attempted suicide, Toxin brought down the [[Wrecker (Dirk Garthwaite)|Wrecker]] and [[Piledriver (Brian Calusky)|Piledriver]], two members of the criminal group known as the [[Wrecking Crew]]. Patrick and Toxin made an agreement to allow Pat two hours a day to become Larry and see his family, and Toxin would in turn get two hours late at night for "playtime". Conditions of the agreement being no acts of arson, grand theft, or homicide. RazorFist killed Mulligan's father in an attempt to gain information about Patrick. Toxin found and beat RazorFist, taking his razor fists, and bringing him to justice.

bio_text= In an alternate timeline, the child of Mary Jane and Peter Parker grew to become "Mayday" Parker - a vivacious teenager with a talent for basketball. Her athletic prowess and bubbly personality made her a popular student with a hectic social life. May was unaware of her father's heroic past until her own latent powers revealed themselves at a crucial point in a ballgame. Walking home afterwards, she was menaced by the [[Green Goblin (MC2)|Green Goblin]] - Norman Osborn, Jr. - who hungered for revenge on Peter Parker for the long-past battle that killed Norman's grandfather and crippled Spider-Man. Instead, it was Spider-Girl who faced the new Green Goblin, and twin legacies were born anew.[[Image:Spidergirlinline.jpg|left]]

Peter and Mary Jane Parker initially forbade May from adopting her new role, but they soon realized that their protests were in vain, and Peter chose to help teach his daughter the skills she would need to survive. As Spider-Girl, May encountered many new villains and allies in her war against crime. Most importantly, she convinced Norman Jr. to abandon his pointless feud, and they co-founded a loosely banded super-team of "[[New Warriors (MC2)|New Warriors]]."

In a battle with the super-villain [[Killerwatt (MC2)|Killerwatt]], who controlled electricity, Spider-Girl was severely shocked. This apparently caused her to lose her powers, until, in a battle with the new Spider-Man, she fell into a generator, where she was, again, shocked severely. Her powers returned, along with a few new powers.

Spider-Girl was faced with other specters from her father's past, including the near-invincible [[Black Tarantula (MC2)|Black Tarantula]]. The Tarantula arrived from South America to select May Parker as the perfect young woman to continue his bloodline. Creating "Team Spider" to supposedly assist May in her war on evil, he began a twisted mind-game to win May's heart, all the while seeking to strengthen his grip on New York's criminal infrastructure.

May has also fought versions of classic Spider-Man villains. She once fought the [[Savage Six (MC2)|Savage Six]], and has also fought [[Aftershock (MC2)|Aftershock]] (Electro's daughter). She recently teamed up with Felicity Hardy, who has taken on the role of the [[Scarlet Spider (MC2)|Scarlet Spider]]. She also occasionally faces old villains from Spider-Man's past. She has faced [[Kaine]], [[Venom (MC2)|Venom]], [[Kingpin (Wilson Fisk)|the Kingpin]], [[Hobgoblin (Roderick Kingsley)|the Hobgoblin]], and [[Doctor Octopus (Otto Octavius)|Doctor Octopus]], to name a few.

Recently, May experienced some of Kaine's power and they both saw a vision of her being stabbed to death in her red and blue costume. She started wearing her black costume to try to trick fate, but she was nevertheless stabbed by a Scrier in a battle. Near death, Normie gave her his [[Glossary:S#Symbiote|symbiote]] (as a farewell gift, the symbiote healed Normie's scars and tattoos) and the symbiote healed May. In order to save May from the Hobgoblin, the symbiote (who turned out to be a she) drove the Hobgoblin away, but in the process was killed by his sonic emitter. Hobgoblin later escaped.

Whether facing old Spider-Man villains, newer versions of classic bad-guys, or completely new villains, Spider-Girl will always uphold her father's motto: With great power, there must always come great responsibility.

{{bio|
bio_text= The son of an abusive veteran, Jameson began his journalism career as a paperboy, then copy boy for the [[Daily Bugle]], formerly edited by old man Jameson, whom some presume to have been his father. A sullen and bullying student, he quit school after becoming a reporter. At twenty he uncovered police corruption by supposed department hero Sam Kenner; beaten and bombed, Jameson nonetheless exposed Kenner with the help of Bugle owner William Goodman. He became a full-time Bugle reporter, including a stint as a war correspondent, criticizing most costumed heroes as glory-seeking vigilantes upstaging the common man. Marrying his high school sweetheart Joan, Jameson rose to editor-in-chief and became renowned for supporting civil rights and opposing organized crime. When Goodman's heirs put the Bugle up for sale, Jameson tapped his last dollar and made the newspaper his own. He worked hard to support his wife and their son John, eventually becoming a millionaire member in New York's elite Century Club; although earning a reputation as a notorious miser, he supported many charities and often helped employees in true need. Still a reporter at heart, he ventured to Korea for a story but was crushed when Joan was killed by a masked gunman in his absence; this and other self-perceived failures contributed to his distrust of masked heroes and the heroic ideal.

In recent years, when the superhuman performer [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]] became a crimefighter, Jameson vowed to expose him as a publicity-seeking scofflaw, and not even the rescue of [[Jameson, John|John]] from a space flight disaster dissuaded him. He relied on photos from Peter Parker, not knowing he was employing Spider-Man himself. Jameson heralded the Spacemen as superior heroes, but this gambit failed when Spider-Man exposed them as criminals; support for [[Mysterio (Quentin Beck)|Mysterio]] yielded similar results. Despite his many achievements, Jameson's harsh self-analysis weighed upon him, for his hatred of Spider-Man was motivated by fear that he was indeed the selfless hero Jameson could never be. Jameson hired Dr. Farley Stillwell to mutate investigator Mac Gargan into the [[Venom (Mac Gargan)|Scorpion]] to defeat Spider-Man, but the debacle left Stillwell dead and the insane Scorpion hating Jameson. Plagued by guilt, the publisher confessed his actions to his friend Norman Osborn. Scientist Spencer Smythe soon offered Jameson the first of many Spider-Slayer robots, with which he battled Spider-Man to a standstill before the web-slinger escaped. Jameson rallied New York against the [[Kingpin]]'s crime wave; abducted for his insolence, he remained defiant before being rescued by Spider-Man.

Months later, Osborn, the [[Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)|Green Goblin]], seemingly died in battle with Spider-Man; Jameson suspected Spider-Man of outright murder, hiring [[Cage, Luke|Luke Cage]] to bring the wall-crawler in, but desisted when John became the Man-Wolf. Jameson's obsession paled before concern for his son, but his own safety became an issue when he was attacked by the Grizzly, a violent wrestler he had blacklisted a decade before. Spider-Man rescued Jameson but chided him for the grudge; in response, Jameson hired [[Mysterio (Daniel Berkhart)|Daniel Berkhart]] to harass Spider-Man as Mysterio's supposed ghost. When this failed, he contracted Farley Stillwell's brother Harlan to mutate a new operative, but fugitive Rick Deacon usurped the process and became the criminal [[Fly]], killing Stillwell and becoming an enemy of Spider-Man and Jameson alike. Jameson mysteriously received photos depicting Spider-Man with the body of Peter Parker; the photos, sent by Osborn's drug-maddened son [[Green Goblin (Harry Osborn)|Harry]], were actually of a clone. Jonah nevertheless kept them quiet but stepped up his traditional campaigns. He approached Dr. Marla Madison to construct her own Spider-Slayer but met no better success. Finally confronting Parker, whom he imagined had been slain and replaced by Spider-Man, Jameson believed his story of faked photography. His relationship with Madison turned romantic, and he proved his principles anew by denouncing the terrorists of the People's Liberation Front. The PLF responded by hiring the Hitman, but even in the face of death Jameson ridiculed his abductors, who were defeated by Spider-Man and the [[Punisher (Frank Castle)|Punisher]].

Meanwhile, Smythe, whose obsession had outgrown even Jameson's, learned he was dying and resolved to take Jameson and Spider-Man with him to the grave. He mesmerized the Man-Wolf into abducting Jameson and fighting Spider-Man; Jameson believed John dead when he saw his son teleported away. Smythe suddenly shackled Jonah and Spider-Man with a bomb, dying afterward. Jameson broke down, admitting his obsession had harmed him far more than its subject, but Spider-Man deactivated the bomb, leaving Jameson devastated at his confession. Scientist Jonas Harrow targeted Jonah, driving him mad, but his tenacity challenged even Harrow, and after being rescued by Spider-Man, Jameson was soon his typically paranoid self. Months later, John resurfaced alive, barely remembering his extradimensional adventures, and Jameson was overjoyed with his son's cure. Longtime colleague Ian Fate resurfaced as a sorcerer in the company of the monstrous [[Man-Thing]]; naively expecting Jameson to help reshape the world, Fate lashed out when refused, but while Spider-Man fought the Man-Thing, Jameson calmed Fate and set him on a more peaceful path. Jameson himself returned to basics by investigating waterfront extortion, interrogating no less than the Kingpin and risking his life to uncover the perpetrators, albeit with unexpected assistance from Spider-Man. Perhaps in unconscious gratitude, Jameson's subsequent scheme to discredit Spider-Man with impostors proved half-hearted at best.

The [[Hobgoblin (Roderick Kingsley)|Hobgoblin]], secretly Jameson's Century Club crony Roderick Kingsley, learned Osborn's secrets and tried to blackmail Jameson over the Scorpion's mutation. Spider-Man ended this scheme, but the conscience-stricken Jameson publicly revealed his guilt anyway, then married Marla Madison. Soon afterward, he hired the alleged mutant hunters [[X-Factor]] and the mercenary [[Wild Pack]] to bring in Spider-Man but, more at peace than he had been in years, he seemed content to restrict his castigations to the printed page. However, his vendetta literally took new form when the [[Chameleon]] imprisoned and impersonated him, bringing anti-Spider-Man sentiments to new heights. Inevitably rescued by Spider-Man, he found a new crisis awaiting him, for Thomas Fireheart, secretly the mercenary [[Puma]], acquired the Bugle to build up Spider-Man's reputation. Jameson sought solace in his lifelong convictions, denigrating neo-Nazi Eric Hartmann in print; when Hartmann's forces invaded the Bugle, for once Jameson played the rescuer when he downed Hartmann before the madman could shoot the intervening Spider-Man.

Fireheart eventually returned the Bugle to Jameson, but his control was wrested away by Norman Osborn, alive after all, but Jameson nonetheless investigated the mutant-hunting [[Operation: Zero Tolerance]]. Hoping to placate the publisher, the android-human [[Bastion]] offered him the outlaw [[X-Men]]'s secrets, but Jameson refused, as his distaste for prejudice outweighed even his dislike of costumed heroes. The X-Men defeated Bastion, but Jameson was scarcely short of enemies when Osborn hired Daniel Berkhart, who had joined Mysterio's cousin [[Mad Jack (Maquire Beck)|Maguire Beck]] in the identity of Mad Jack, to force Jameson to sell the Bugle. Soon afterward, when [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]] was ordered to put a scare into him, the madman mistook his instructions for a kill order, and even Jameson winced at the beating Spider-Man took in his defense.

Jameson regained the Bugle when Osborn went mad in a mystic ritual, which also empowered teenager Mattie Franklin, who became a new [[Spider-Woman (Mattie Franklin)|Spider-Woman]] and was, ironically, entrusted to the care of the Jamesons. A different legacy hounded Jameson as Spencer Smythe's even madder son Alistair threatened Jameson's family before receiving his latest defeat. Berkhart and Beck, now Mysterio and Mad Jack, abducted Jameson but were outwitted by Spider-Man and [[Daredevil (Matthew Murdock)|Daredevil]]. Unencumbered by gratitude, he sought to capitalize on the revelation of Daredevil's secret identity but was undercut when reporter Ben Urich refused to participate. Jameson hired superhuman investigator [[Jones, Jessica|Jessica Jones]] to break a similar story on Spider-Man, but Jones merely put his money to work for charity, making her later rescue of Mattie from drug dealers all the more biting.

Even Jameson began to face his vendetta's futility, and his invective grew sparse. After fresh humiliation in a libel trial, he agreed to a new Bugle feature with a theoretically objective focus on super heroes, co-managed by Urich and Jones, but he was stunned by seeming proof that his son John had, inexplicably, been Spider-Man all along. Jameson's hatred of Spider-Man can only intensify when he inevitably learns the truth.

Recently Jameson suffered a heart attack and his wife Martha sold the Bugle to Dexter Bennett, and Jonah divorced her. In a special election Jonah was elected Mayor of New York City.

{{Powerbox|
universe = [[Marvel Universe]]
| real_name = Unrevealed, possibly inapplicable
| identity = Unknown to the general populace of Earth
| occupation = Pawn
| place_of_birth = The [[Dimension of Manifestations]]
| groups = Formerly [[Carnage Family]]; Magus' doppelgangers; operative of [[Demogoblin]]
| citizenship = None
| education = Limited mental conditioning, slight capacity for behavioral changes

| height = 6'5"
| weight = 230 lbs.
| eyes = White
| hair = None
| powers = The Doppelganger possesses superhuman strength without limit , speed, and agility. It could climb walls with its claws, which could also rend most substances, as could its teeth. It could shoot razor-sharp webbing from its hands. Its innate ability to reshape its body in a virtually infinite manner enabled it to recover from all but the most severe injuries. It had the potential to duplicate others and take on their attributes, but it never demonstrated such power in the Earth dimension. The Doppelganger was created for the express purpose of fighting Spider-Man and held an innate hostility toward him. Roughly as intelligent as a wild beast, it was incapable of speech but achieved some level of learned response and primitive emotional attachment.

{{bio|
bio_text= The Doppelganger began life as a living fractal, a geometric pattern in the [[Dimension of Manifestations]], able to assume the forms and attributes of any being, real or abstract. When the mysterious [[Magus (Adam Warlock)|Magus]] set out to obtain the vast power of the [[Infinity Gauntlet]], he contracted the ruling fractal, Prime Manifester [[Anthropomorpho]], to transform several young fractals into monstrous versions of Earth's super heroes; the Doppelganger was one such creation, based upon [[Spider-Man (Peter Parker)|Spider-Man]]. It and its brethren were sent to Earth to attack the heroes in the so-called [[Infinity War]]. The Doppelganger interrupted a fight between Spider-Man and the [[Hobgoblin (Jason Macendale)|Hobgoblin]], who impaled the creature upon a fence.

Following the battle, the Doppelganger was retrieved by the demonic [[Demogoblin]], who unknowingly infused it with supernatural energy, enabling it to remain in the Earth dimension following the Magus' defeat. Demogoblin directed the Doppelganger in a grudge against Hobgoblin, whom the altruistic Spider-Man protected. The foursome's fight brought them to another battle, where the supernatural heroes [[Ghost Rider (Daniel Ketch)|Ghost Rider]] and [[Ghost Rider (John Blaze)|Blaze]] were fighting a group of demonic [[Deathspawn]] and Spider-Man's murderous nemesis [[Brock, Eddie|Venom]]. Both the Doppelganger and Demogoblin were subsequently pulled underground by the Deathspawn, with two Deathspawn briefly taking up silent residence within the Doppelganger's body.

The disoriented Doppelganger wandered New York for days before being attacked by the psychotic [[Carnage (Cletus Kasady)|Carnage]], who mistook the creature for their mutual enemy Spider-Man; however, Carnage's companion, the equally insane [[Shriek]], took a liking to the Doppelganger, and the deranged couple introduced their new "son" to the "pleasure" of random murder. During their spree, the three were joined by Demogoblin and [[Carrion (Malcolm McBride)]]; they also fought Spider-Man, the [[Black Cat]], [[Cloak]] and [[Dagger]], Venom, [[Morbius]], and others. The Doppelganger became devoted to Shriek; when Carnage attacked her for rebellious behavior, it sprang to her defense, but Carnage gutted it and kicked it to the street several stories below. Carnage and the others were defeated shortly afterward, but whether the Doppelganger was truly slain remains to be seen.

bio_text= Little is known about Aardwolf’s past except that he runs his own crime ring in Madripoor. Aardwolf prefers to run things behind the scenes but has been shown to get his hands dirty. Much like the animal he is named after, Aardwolf shares the same features. He once captured [[Night Thrasher (Dwayne Taylor)|Night Thrasher]] through deceit and held him prisoner in his hotel suite. Believing that [[Midnight's Fire]] was planning to overthrow his empire, Aardwolf talked Night into helping him get rid of the [[Folding Circle]]. Night Thrasher breaking free of his bonds attacked Aardwolf, who allowed him to put his armor back on as a sign of trust. Aardwolf told Dwayne that [[Silhouette]] was still working with the Concrete Dragons and when he wouldn’t listen Aardwolf showed Thrash tapes confirming what he had said. Enraged Night Thrasher once again engaged him in battle but was losing until he outsmarted the crime boss sending him off a balcony. Landing underneath Thrasher, Aardwolf became unconscious. After they had landed the Folding Circle confronted them and asked for Aardwolf. Seeing Sil on the opposite team Dwayne attacked giving enough time for Aardwolf to flee the scene. Seeking the help of [[Tyger Tiger]], Aardwolf ran to her only to be betrayed. The Folding Circle lay in wait and ambushed him defeating him easily. Bound and gagged, Aardwolf was thrown into the ocean but was saved by Thrash. Together Silhouette, Night Thrasher and Aardwolf held off the members of the Folding Circle until an agreement was struck. The feuding crime bosses got to keep their territory and Night Thrasher and Sil were no longer part of the fight.

{{teamhistory|bio_text = The Folding Circle is a gang of mystically powered mutates who derive their power from the ancient Well of All Things. For centuries, the ancient Asian [[Cult of the Dragon's Breadth]] guarded and kept secret the Well of All Things, which was an interdimensional hole that was bursting with an incredible array of mystical energies. During their stewardship off the Well, the Cult of the Dragon's Breath engaged in selected breeding in order to produce children that could tap the energy from the Well. According to prophecy this would culminate in a generation that would mate with "Westerners", the resulting offspring of which would finally fully control the Well's Energies. In the 20th Century the Cult produced a generation of women that could tap the energies far better then any other before them. One of these women, [[Tai]], realized that her daughter [[Chord, Miyami|Miyami]] and the generation she belonged to would be the mothers of the prophesied children. In anticipation of that, Tai killed off her own mystic peers so that she alone could guide and exploit the next generation.

Several decades after Miyami's birth, an American military unit known as the [[Half-Fulls|"Half-Fulls"]] (comprised of [[Left Hand|Private Diego Casseas]], [[Chord, Andrew|Sgt. Andrew Chord]], [[Conroy, Mark|Lt. Mark Conroy]], [[Mack, Collier|Private Collier Mack]], [[Taylor, Daryl|Lt. Daryl Taylor]] and Vietnamese Soldier [[Ng, Min Li| Lt. Min Li Ng]]) stumbled upon the [[Temple of the Dragon's Breadth]] and were captured by Tai. Tai convinced the soldiers into making a pact whereby the soldiers would marry the selected Daughters of the Cult and in exchange would receive wealth and power. All accepted except Taylor because he was already married. Tai's daughter Miyami married Chord and bore twins, but to protect her children from Tai she faked her death and the deaths of her children. To replace these children in the pact, Tai mystically forced Chord into killing Daryl and [[Taylor, Melody Ann|Melody Ann Taylor]] so that she and Chord would become the legal guardians of their son Dwayne, who grew up to become the vigilante [[Night Thrasher (Dwayne Taylor)|Night Thrasher]]. Miyami's lost twins, who were born with mystical powers, grew up to become the [[Concrete Dragons]] gang members known as [[Midnight's Fire]] (who had enhanced physical abilities) and [[Silhouette]] (who also had enhanced physical abilities and could teleport through the [[Darkforce Dimension]]). While in their teens Night Thrasher befriended the duo, though Midnights Fire later turned on Night Thrasher. Meanwhile the children of Conroy, Mack, and Ng also grew up with Conroy's son becoming the super strong Chicago mob enforcer [[Bloodstrike|Eric Conroy]], Mack's son becoming the deadly maniac [[Smiling Tiger]], and Ng's daughter becoming the flame-throwing eco-terrorist [[Silk Fever|Firewall]]. Unlike the other children of the prophecy, the daughter of Diego Casseas was rendered comatose after an accident that also killed her mother. Realizing that his daughter was possessed of great power, Diego Casseas usurped his daughters Darkforce based powers and plotted to become master of the Wells energies on his own by becoming the Left Hand and studying ancient mystic texts.

Knowing that the children of the pact must be sacrificed to the Well in order for the energies to be harnessed, Tai feared that the children might usurp the energies instead whereas she wished to make them her servants. Realizing that youths of like power could be cast into the Well instead and still cause the same result Tai and her pawn Chord encouraged Night Thrasher's formation of his super-team, the [[New Warriors]], whom Tai planned on sacrificing in lieu of the children of the prophecy. During the first few months as a team, the New Warriors encountered Midnights Fire, Firewall, and Silhouette (the latter of whom became the first recruit to the team). Meanwhile, Tai had discovered the true fate of her daughter and grand-children, and killed Miyami and attempted to kill Silhouette as well.

Completing his studies the Left Hand began gathering the others recruiting Midnights Fire, Eric Conroy (who was re-named Bloodstrike), Smiling Tiger, and Fire Wall (who was re-named Silk Fever) into the organization which he named the Folding Circle. Left Hand also recruited Night Thrasher, who joined seeking answers about his past as they went to the Temple to discover the origins of the prophecy. Night Thrasher helped the Warriors defeat the circle when the Warriors arrived and both teams attacked Tai when she revealed the full story. During the battle Night Thrasher shot Tai and the Well was sealed when Left Hand and Tai fell into the rupture. The rest of the Folding Circle escaped and settled into [[Madripoor]] where they became leading figures in the Lowtown underworld as enforcers for crime lord [[Tyger Tiger]]. One of Tyger Tiger's rivals, [[Aardwolf]] went to war with the Folding Circle who nearly killed the mutant criminal. Night Thrasher and Silhouette became involved in the confrontation both beating Aardwolf and the Circle and forcing them to come to a mutually beneficial arrangement.

Since the incident in Madripoor the Folding Circle have not been seen together but Bloodstrike and Smiling Tiger were arrested and pressed into US government service as members of the [[Thunderbolts]] army, battling hordes of Wellspring empowered humans who were being controlled by the [[Grandmaster]].

bio_text= In 1602, Matthew Murdoch was an adventurer for hire, who charged reasonably excessive prices to anyone who had the money, for any job. As a child, Matthew was a fearless boy who would explore anywhere, eventually finding himself in a dark cave that glowed inside from a green substance. Young Matthew thought nothing of tasting it, and so he did, and then continued to explore the dark cave. He soon walked back the way he came, assuming when he felt the pebbles of the beach beneath his feet that it was nighttime, but his mother later found him fevered and muttering about darkness, as well as completely blind. Though he lost his sight, the rest of Matthew’s senses became extra-sharp. Matthew traveled the land as a blind beggar and bard, singing songs of heroes, and appearing weak and helpless until he was either on a job or attacked.

The Queen of England’s head spymaster, [[Fury, Nick (1602)|Nicholas Fury]], later paid him to hunt down and protect [[Thor (1602)|Donal]], the Templar keeper of Thor’s staff. On the way he encountered [[Black Widow (Earth-311)|Natasha]], whom he called the most dangerous woman in England. Ironically, she soon turned on him and smashed a bottle over his head and pushed him off a bridge into a canyon below. But Murdoch survived, and appeared in time to attack Natasha’s men, and attempt to rescue Donal from her, though she soon surrounded him with a garrison worth of men, sent by [[Doctor Doom (1602)|Count Otto von Doom]] of Latveria to capture the old man’s treasure; the old man himself; and Matthew Murdoch. Doom imprisoned them in one of his castle’s cells and worked to uncover the secrets of the golden bauble that Donal gave to him to distract him from the true treasure: the staff. Donal was also in contact with [[Doctor Strange (1602)|Dr. Strange]], the former Queen’s court magician and physician, who informed them that a group of heroes were on their way to the castle.

When the imprisoned Captain of the [[Fantastic Four (1602)|Fantastick]] railed against his stone prison, it shook the castle from its foundations and freed Murdoch and Donal. Murdoch used his abilities to carry the old man and leap from wall to wall to the courtyard many feet below. When Doom’s men cornered them, after Donal demanded to find his staff, the old man used it to transform himself into the Thunder God, Thor. Thor used his immortal powers to stop Doom’s men and assist [[Professor X (1602)|Carlos Javier’s]] [[X-Men (1602)|witchbreed]] in their attack on Doom’s castle, finally allowing Doom to use Thor’s electricity to explode the golden sphere that Donal had given him, scarring Doom and bringing him to the brink of death. Then, while Donal-as Thor-joined the group aboard their ship, headed to the New World to fix the tear in their universe, Murdoch used his own means to leave Latveria.

Murdoch later appeared to King James, in the dark, threatening to cut his throat if he ever attacked the old monarch’s spymaster, Fury. He then disappeared through the window, promising to return again if James was untrue to his word.

bio_text = In an alternate future timeline where heroes were being captured and killed and democracy was no longer allowed, Captain America fought the [[President-For-Life (Earth-460)|President-For-Life]] as a way to restore the country he had sworn to protect. However, he was betrayed and captured by the people he had opposed. They shot Captain America in the head and sent him back in time where he arrived in America in the 16th century. For a time, Captain America wandered the land for some time, uncertain of who or where he was, until he met a Native American tribe who welcomed him and allowed him to stay with them, taking the name Rojhaz. Eventually, the tribe came across some starving English colonists in Roanoke and fed them. Rojhaz also met [[Dare, Virginia (Earth-311)|Virginia Dare]], who was a baby at the time, and, knowing who she was and what she represented to him, decided to become her personal guardian. Eventually, the Indian tribe moved on but Rojhaz remained behind, where he helped the colonists to build houses, plant crops and hunt animals.. However, Captain America’s presence in this timeline had affected the course of the future making the Age of Heroes happen 400 years earlier than it was originally supposed to. It had also made the weather become more violent.

When Virginia was 8 years old, she wandered off with her friends to the marshes where she discovered a strange white light glittering in the air. When she touched it she turned into a white fawn and ran off. Rojhaz hunted the fawn and waited until nightfall when Virginia turned back to herself once again. Rojhaz and Virginia decided to keep this a secret from the rest of the colonists so as not to startle them. Unfortunately Virginia had changed into animals twice more since then but each time Rojhaz found her and brought her back to safety. Eventually Virginia was sent to England by her father to ask for aid from the Queen for the colonists. Rojhaz accompanied her to ensure her safety. When they arrived in England, [[Parquagh, Peter (Earth-311)|Peter Parquagh]] was sent to escort Virginia to the Queen, but Rojhaz refused to let go alone. Arriving at he Queen’s court, Rojhaz was asked to leave his weapons behind while in the presence of the Queen. However, an assassin of [[Doom, Otto von (Earth-311)|Otto von Doom]]’s kidnapped Virginia and flew off with her. Rojhaz picked up a tray and threw it into the sky, knocking her abductor from the sky. However, unnoticed by the others, Virginia had changed into a gryphon. Climbing to the roof, Rojhaz met Dr. Strange who gave him a net to capture Virginia with. Together, they managed to successfully capture her and return her to normal. While attending to Virginia, Rojhaz told Strange about her transformations and the illnesses she usually felt afterwards. In return, Strange told Rojhaz that the source of the strange weather affecting the world was in this room. Rojhaz barely left Virginia’s side until the moment she woke up.

Following the death of the Queen, King James of Scotland took the throne of England and told Virginia that there would be no help from England for the colonists in Roanoke. He also told Virginia that she and Rojhaz should not return home until he said otherwise. After witnessing the execution of Dr. Strange, Rojhaz was approached by [[Clea (Earth-311)|Mistress Clea]], Strange’s wife, and led him and Virginia on board the Virginia Maid. While they made their way to America, Clea told them that Strange told her about the Forerunner, the person from the future that was causing all of this strange weather in the world. She revealed that Rojhaz was this Forerunner at which point Rojhaz explained the events that led him to this timeline. Arriving in Roanoke, Clea explained the situation to [[Fury, Nick (Earth-311)|Fury]], [[Javier, Carlos (Earth-311)|Javier]] and the others and Virginia showed everybody the mysterious light that gave her the ability to change into animals. As everybody began to build the time portal, Rojhaz ran off, not wishing to return to his atrocious time. However, Fury caught up to him and knocked him unconscious and carried him back through the anomaly , sending Rojhaz back to his own time.

Posing as a male student, she served as a page and apprentice under [[Javier, Carlos (Earth-311)|Carlos Javier]] with his other fellow [[X-Men (Earth-311|students]]. She fell in love with fellow student [[Summerisle, Scotius (Earth-311)|Scotius Summerisle]], but because of her secret they could not be together.
After saving [[Angel (Earth-311)|Werner]] from being burned at the stake, he was invited to come back to school, and Jean began a friendship with him. This caused Scotius to become jealous.

As witchbreed, the team faced a constant danger from the various rulers of the surrounding countries. Once Queen Elizabeth had breathed her last, her successor, King James of Scotland, immediately ordered the capture of Javier’s group. Fury was thus forced to lead an army to Javier’s school to take them in. Soon after Fury turned traitor to the crown and along with the group, traveled to Latveria to fight [[Doom, Otto von (Earth-311)|Count Otto von Doom]]. To get to Latveria, Jean and Javier linked their minds and lifted their ship, the Eagle's Shadow out of the water and flew it to Doomstadt. Along with the stress of keeping the ship aloft and fighting throughout the battle created strain and damage within her brain.

With the battle over, the ship sailed back to the ocean and to the New World, but along the way Grey passed away. Having requested not to be thrown into the sea, Jon Storm carried her body into the air and Scotius burned it away with his eyes. Werner believed he saw the image of a great bird in the flames.

bio_text= Lorna Dane was an orphan when the Human-Mutant War began. She witnessed [[Magneto (House of M)|Magneto]]'s first battle with the [[Sentinels (House of M)|Sentinels]] on television like the rest of the world; but for Lorna, the event was a little different. Around this same time, her mutant abilities began to develop. With no place else to turn, and Sentinels hunting for mutants all over the world, Lorna followed the lead of the only mutant she had ever seen. As Polaris she lashed out at the Sentinels in the sky and became a leader of mutant teens in her area.

Eventually, Magneto recruited Lorna and her small team of mutants to join his rebellion. She was a valuable ally, and Magneto would eventually reveal she was actually his daughter. Currently, Lorna resides in the House of M on [[Genosha (House of M)|Genosha]] with the rest of her family. She is completely devoted to Magnus and his dream and is a perfect daughter.

During the most desperate days of the Mutant-Human War, with [[S.H.I.E.L.D. (House of M)|S.H.I.E.L.D.]] intercepting all of Magneto's communications, Pietro was used to coordinate attacks and risked his life time and again to deliver crucial information to mutant operatives around the world.

Following Magneto's final victory, Quicksilver was invited to a victory dinner in the capital city of [[Genosha (House of M)|Genosha]] along with his sisters [[Wanda (House of M)|Wanda]] and [[Polaris (House of M)|Polaris]]. It was on this day Magnus revealed he was truly their father and invited them to join him in running the world. They accepted, and the House of M was formed.

Recently, Magnus has urged his son to woo [[Munroe, Ororo (House of M)|Ororo]], the mutant Queen of Kenya. Pietro truly cares for her, but his attempts have been unfruitful up to this point. He remains completely devoted to his father despite Magnus' frequently cold attitude towards him.

No its not redundant. I think its here because they wan't to separate those original Spider-Man villians from the other villians. Also Spider-Man is one of their leading comics so this makes fans find the Spider-Man villians more easilly. --[[User:Wezqu|Wezqu]] 18:57, 15 June 2007 (EDT)
