Gamma Corps: Black
Some time later, Ryker, under the auspices of Norman Osborn, created a new Gamma Corps, composed of female "volunteers" (mentally unstable ex-soldiers on death row) for the Origins Corporation's gene therapy program, and sent them to capture the new She-Hulk, so that her DNA could be harvested. They killed Lyra's fellow A.R.M.O.R. agents and took her computer, Boudicca, from her, which drove her to hunt them down, first killing Morass by drying out her body. The remaining two ran to a small town, attempting to hold the people hostage in order to make Lyra surrender. In the ensuing battle, Lyra badly wounded Aberration, causing her body to mutate into a tumorous mess, before finally killing her with a pipe to the head. Axon then threatened to electrocute all the townspeople unless Lyra surrendered. Axon absorbed most of Lyra's bio-electric energy, absorbing her powers. Lyra then made Axon angry, causing the stolen powers to weaken, and defeated her. Axon was then killed remotely by Ryker's men.

Famous quotes containing the word black:
“The lore of our fathers is a fabric of sentences. In our hands it develops and changes, through more or less arbitrary and deliberate revisions and additions of our own, more or less directly occasioned by the continuing stimulation of our sense organs. It is a pale gray lore, black with fact and white with convention. But I have found no substantial reasons for concluding that there are any quite black threads in it, or any white ones.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
