Abomination’s Daughter Joins Marvel’s Hulk-ish Heroes
Marvel Comics’ Gamma Flight brings the daughter of Hulk’s nemesis – Abomination – to the team. His father’s legacy is at stake.
Warning: Contains major spoilers for Gamma flight n ° 3!
A die by Hulk biggest enemies – Abomination – has a surprising new bond with his nemesis. Gamma Flight # 3 provides the irradiated team with a new member – the daughter of the most recent iteration of the Abomination. She wants to redeem her father, which makes it ironic that she needs the Hulk’s allies to do it.
Dionne Fortean, also known as Stockpile, first appeared in Gamma flight n ° 1. The titular team showed up to help her when the Hulk’s son Skaar attempted to take her back for the company, Green Spring, which uses gamma to arm test subjects. She is the daughter of Reginald Fortean, who recently became the Abomination in the Marvel comics, Immortal hulk. He’s been dead for a little while, but it looks like he’s not quite.
Gamma Flight # 3 has the creative team of Al Ewing, Crystal Frasier, Lan Medina, Antonio Fabela and Vc Joe Sabino. In this new issue, the Hulk allies escape Skaar and the US Hulkbuster Force, uncovering more secrets of Green Spring thanks to Dionne. At the end of the issue, the current Abomination’s daughter is tasked with erasing her father’s name and preventing him from being used as the face of Green Spring’s efforts. The best way to do that is to join the one team her father never wanted her to be a part of before: Gamma Flight.
Dionne Fortean is a gamma mutation from Austin, Texas. Gamma Flight found her when she escaped from Green Spring and Skaar, who pursued her. Now, thanks to her newfound abilities and the things she discovered about the project her late father got involved in, she’s on her way to becoming a hero. Gamma Flight is a new team, from the previous incarnation of Alpha Flight, coming out of the pages of Immortal hulk. They face gamma threats, but mostly have been allies of the Hulk, who brought them all together. They have been helping him in the fights lately and are now looking to bring back Bruce Banner from the Underworld. In this spinoff series, they tackle a larger threat distinct from their adventures in their intro series.
Dionne’s sudden appearance and the threats she informed them of creates an interesting new dynamic within this series. Reginald Fortean, his father, was an enemy of the Hulk on the inside Immortal hulk. He even swore he would destroy the Hulk, before a final fight resulted in their deaths. Ironically, Charlene McGowan, now a member of Gamma Flight, was part of the former Fortean team before she betrayed him – following her transformation into an uncontrollable force. Her turn to the Hulk team and now Dionne’s arrival on the team comes with some strange changes of allegiance that one would not expect due to their association with the current Abomination.
Fortean may be dead, but the way he’s currently used by Emil Blonsky – the other Abomination – and Green Spring, could change his mind about his take on the Hulk. After all, the Hulk isn’t trying to use Fortean’s face, body, or plans to destroy the country the former general fought for while serving in the Air Force. His own daughter is now an indirect ally of the Pontoon, which can be the best thing for everyone involved. New Abomination may not have liked the giant gamma mutation, but by marvel the new super-team is definitely on the better side of this fight.
