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:
“Thus Winter falls,
A heavy gloom oppressive o’er the world
Through Nature shedding influence malign,
And rouses up the seeds of dark disease.
The soul of man dies in him, loathing life,
And black with more than melancholy views.”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)
