ABSORBING MAN
Seeking a pawn to use against his nemesis THOR, the Asgardian god LOKI endowed brutal prisoner "Crusher" Creel and his ball and chain with the power to "absorb" the physical properties of anything he touched. Creel broke out of prison and battled THOR, as Loki intended. However, Creel overreached himself by trying to absorb the power of the whole Earth and exploaded. Thanks to his new powers, however, Creel was not truly dead, and loki magically reassembled his body. Loki then enlisted the Absorbing Man as his ally in an attempt to overthrow ODIN, monarch of Asgard, but Odin banished Creel into outer space. Over the years the Absorbing Man has repeatedly battled THOR and HULK as well SPIDER-MAN and AVENGERS. During the first Secret War staged by the BEYONDER, Creel met Mary "Skeeter" MacPherran (TITANIA), whom he later married. He was thought killed by SENTRY during the Civil War, and it was soon after revealed that he was the father of Stonewall of the SECRET WARRIORS. Creel returned, only to be depowered by Norman Osborn. During FEAR ITSELF,a repowered Creel became Greithoth, Breaker of Will, one of agents of destruction for Worthy.
