Baron Wolfgang von Strucker may have been born into the ranks of the nobility, but he has spent his prolonged life in pursuit of nefarious goals. As an ally of the Red Skull and wing commander of the Death’s Head Squadron, Strucker waged campaigns of invasion and oppression. As the founder of HYDRA, Strucker’s villainy has spread deeply across the world. After becoming infected with the deathspore virus, Strucker gained an array of superhuman abilities, including suppressed aging that keeps this notorious villain alive to this day.

Doctor Arnim Zola was a scientist who pursued the creation of super-soldiers for the purpose of world domination. Performing cruel experiments during World War II, Zola worked alongside villains like Baron Zemo and the Red Skull. The mad doctor transferred his consciousness into a synthetic body, allowing him to continue his nefarious work well into the future, using his genius intellect and scientific knowledge as weapons against all who would stop him.

Black Swan was a princess of an alternate Earth who became its only survivor when an incursion event caused her universe to collide with another. She fled into a waystation between dimensions and found the Black Swans, who took her in and raised her as one of their own. Black Swan joined the Black Order of Thanos using her ability to project eyebeams of energy and her superhuman physique to support the Mad Titan’s conquest of worlds.

Supergiant is an omnipath and telepathic parasite. A ruthless and cunning member of the Black Order, she uses these abilities to devour the intellects of those who would oppose her. After each brutal attack her incorporeal form assures a swift escape, and Supergiant absconds to plague the galaxy anew.

Soviet-era experiments intending to create a super-soldier on par with Captain America resulted in the creation of Omega Red. Once the Russian criminal Arkady Gregorivich Rossovich, Omega Red is the product of extensive and invasive experiments that transformed him into a dangerous weapon.

The experiments implanted carbonadium tendrils into Omega Red’s body, an alloy almost as strong as adamantium, which act as his primary weapons. However, a side effect is that the radioactive carbonadium is slowly poisoning him. Omega Red must feed on the life force of others to temporarily preserve himself, which he does by wrapping his foes in his tendrils and feasting on their life force to sustain his own.

Whether he is fighting enemies, working for criminal masterminds, or killing to stay alive, Omega Red is a powerful and dangerous opponent.
