Institute of Evil

TheInstitute of Evilis a fictional organization appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.

The Institute of Evil existed in the Earth-712 universe and served as theSquadron Supreme’s arch-foes. The known members of the Institute of Evil includedApe-X(the leader),Doctor Decibel,Foxfire,Lamprey,Quagmire,and theShape.

The Behavior Modification process invented by Squadron memberTom Thumbwould prove to be the Institute of Evil's undoing. TheGolden Archerused the machine to make fellow Squadron memberLady Larkobsessed with him. However, he couldn't stand her irrational behavior, so went for a walk and was captured by the institute. They tortured the Archer until he revealed the Squadron's new base of operations. They then kidnapped the Squadron's family members and attacked their headquarters. They began ambushing Squadron members and using the behavior modification machines on them as they returned from their missions. The Institute then brought the Squadron back to their lair where the Golden Archer and their captive family members were held. The Squadron attacked, revealing that Tom Thumb had designed the process not to work on Squadron members, and defeated the Institute completely.^[146]

The Institute of Evil's members were subjected to the Behavior Modification process, altering their personalities. The former super-criminals all became elected to full membership in the Squadron Supreme and aided them in their efforts to conquer the world in order to forcibly turn it into autopia.^[147]

Some Institute members did not fare so well as members of the Squadron. Ape-X suffered from a psychotic withdrawal from reality and fell into a coma, due to her behavior modification process. After saving twenty factory workers from a gas leakage, Quagmire went into a coma. In the hospital, he was sucked into the hole in his brain that is a portal into the dimension from which his dark matter originates, and Doctor Decibel suffocated in Quagmire's extra-dimensional slime.^[148]

In time, Squadron Supreme memberNighthawkobjected to the extreme methods the Squadron was using to achieve its goals, and left the group. Nighthawk formed a rebel group, known as the America Redeemers, to oppose the Squadron's "benevolent" tyranny. The Redeemers included other enemies of the Squadron, expelled Squadron member theBlack Archer,as well as unknown superheroes that infiltrated the Squadron to help take it down. With the help ofMaster Menace,the Redeemers were able to reverse the Behavior Modification of Foxfire, Lamprey, and the Shape and recruited them into his group. These three agents also remained in the Squadron as double agents.^[149]

When the Redeemers finally confronted the Squadron Supreme, an all-out battle broke out. Lamprey tried to absorbDoctor Spectrum’s power, but Doctor Spectrum was able to overload Lamprey's power which killed Lamprey. Foxfire, who had long been in love with Doctor Spectrum, tried to gain his approval by betraying Nighthawk, to allow the Squadron to win the fight. She used her powers to kill Nighthawk by blasting his heart and causing a massive coronary. Foxfire was then killed by fellow Redeemer Mink, who had been in love with Nighthawk. The death of Nighthawk caused the Squadron members to realize that they had become the very thing that they had intended to oppose, and thus ended the fight.^[150]

The Shape was the only former member of the Institute of Evil that eventually chose to side with the Squadron Supreme, finding happiness in his new calling.^[151]

Self-proclaimed "Nasty Boy" Slab facedX-FactormemberStrong Guybefore the full team appeared.^[168]The full team battled X-Factor in the next issue seemingly led by US Senator Steven Shaffran. Senator Shaffran (also known as Ricochet) was a mutant who has the ability alter probability in his favor. The Shaffran that appeared with the Nasty Boys was a disguisedMister Sinisterwho had taken the Senator's form in order to publicly discredit him as a mutant terrorist. Sinister tells Shaffran he did it because of the harm that would come to mutants if he became President of the United States. He also tells him that he has a personal interest in the safety ofHavokandPolaris.^[169]

Both Alex and Lorna are willing to die in order to end Malice once and for all, and their combined willpower forces Malice to be stuck between them. This allows Sinister to trap her.

Omega Clan

TheOmega Clanis a fictional organization appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.

Following the demise ofOmega Red,a secret organization known as "The White Sky" which is specialized in growing and programming unique assassins to meet all their clients' expectations, were hired to create three "clones" from the remains of the original Omega Red. Each of these clones have different abilities from each other and they passionately hate X-Force just for the fact they were implanted with false memories to believe that X-Force members had killed their father.^[182]

The Omega Clan is composed by:

Omega Black– A female clone of Omega Red, she goes by the programmed name of Sylvia Engel Rossovich.^[183]^[184]Omega Black's chest is implanted with five retractable Carbonadium tendrils which she can use to affect people with diseases, such as cancer.
Omega White– A male clone of Omega Red, he has the power to create energy constructs similar to Omega Red's coils which he uses to drain the psychic energy and life force from his enemies. He's also able to render himself intangible, thus becoming immune to physical attacks.
Omega Red II– A male clone of Omega Red, in fact he is the closest member in terms of appearance and powers to the original Omega Red.

When Wade Wilson tried to infiltrate the White Sky facility, he was discovered and battle the Omega Clan.^[182]He was quickly backed up by fellow X-Force members: Wolverine and Nightcrawler. Both of them were tortured by the three clones, untilDeadpoolmanaged to stop them by sending his own White Sky creation: Alpha Achromic.^[183]

Soon after that battle, the Omega Clan revealed itself as part ofDaken's Brotherhood.^[185]

The whole Brotherhood hid for a time in an underwater secret base,^[186]in order to push Apocalypse's clone Evan Sabahnur into the Brotherhood's own Apocalypse.^[187]

When X-Force infiltrated the base, Omega Black was the one along Daken andBlob of Earth-295to stop Deadpool while he was trying to extract Evan. After being captured, Wade was inspected by Sylvia in order to remove his telepathic dampening device, and once Farouk had probed his mind, Omega Black was asked to kill Wade by filling his head with cancer.^[188]

Intent on doing what was asked of her, she tried to finish the job by beating him up with a wrench, only stopping when she was asked to bring Evan to see Wolverine drowning, in order to push him to wear the Celestial Armor and ascend as Apocalypse. As Daken was beating him to death to make him reveal his nature as Wolverine, Omega Black stopped him and brought the boy back to the torture room with Deadpool, and then left, while Evan wore the Celestial Armor to end this.^[189]

With the Celestial Armor on, Evan fought back and freed his friends, seemingly killing Omega Red in the process. Omega White tried to avenge his "brother" but Psylocke mind-controlled him in order to absorb the Shadow King's, and then erased Omega White's mind, leaving the Shadow King trapped in a brain-dead corpse. With the Brotherhood tore apart Black Omega was somehow able to escape the base. Omega White's body was later entrusted to Brian Braddock's care.^[190]

It was revealed that Omega Red was able to survive Evan's attack and started a mercenary career, working for Roxxon.^[191]When he clashed with Deadpool, he tried to have revenge on him for the false memories implanted on him.^[192]After clashing with Deadpool numerous times, the mercenary convinced him that the memories of his past were false, and that just like him, Omega Red needed to realize he wouldn't be controlled by those who transformed them into monsters. Both called a truce, and Omega Red left Deadpool alone, unless he discovered he had actually murdered his family.^[193]

Omega Black has since reappeared too, with the revelation that she had become a vessel for Shadow King which the Crimson Pirates were supposed to give to Tullamore Voge.^[194]

In the "Return of Wolverine"mini-series, Omega Red appeared as a masked sniper at a work camp owned by Soteira. A revived Wolverine sees him shooting a fleeing scientist. Upon Wolverine returning fire, Omega Red shoots out the front tire of Wolverine's motorcycle.^[195]While on the ocean, Omega Red and a revived Daken attack the speedboat that Wolverine and Ana are on. Omega Red is shot off the boat by Ana using the speedboat's harpoon gun.^[196]

When Spider-Woman of Earth-332 orders Hunter-Spider to stay down, Spider-Man 2099 of Earth-2099 states that they need to retreat and regroup. Coming up with a plan, Lady Araña tells Web-Weaver and Weapon VIII to hit their opponents hard, tells Spider-Man 2099 to get into Halloween Jack's terminal to find anything useful they can use with Spider-Cat covering his back, and tells Spider-Woman of Earth-332 and Spider-Punk to come with her. Web-Weaver and Weapon VIII burst through the roof where they fight the J. Jonah Jameson version of Hobgoblin, a Mysterio Avatar look-alike, a full-armored version of Rhino, and Vulture. Spider-Man 2099 tells Lady Araña that he got into Halloween Jacks comm frequency which alerted him to when his cronies were coming. To buy Spider-Man 2099 some more time, Lady Araña, Spider-Woman of Earth-332, and Spider-Punk join the battle against the Sinister Squadron. With help from Lyla, Spider-Man 2099 gets into the comm systems and has Spider-Cat screech loud enough to make Hobgoblin, Lady Octopus, the Mysterio Avatar, and Rhino disoriented. At the ruins of the Simms Building, the Gwen Stacy version of Green Goblin speaks with her Boss as they see their captive prisoners. Ghost-Spider calls their leader an off-brandMadame Web.While displeased from Green Goblin's status report that the rest of the Sinister Squadron hasn't captured the rest of the Spider-Society yet, Madame Web revealed that he had captured Ghost-Spider's dad and Miles Morales' parents. As those with Spider-Man 2099 and Lady Araña arrive at the ruined Simms Building to make use of a bunker, they learned that the Sinister Squadron has captured their loved ones. Arriving on Earth-71290 to meet up with its versions ofAshley KafkaandEdward Whelanwho hid the Great Web of Life of Destiny at Ravencroft, the Spider-Society is confronted by Madame Web and the Sinister Squadron members Electro II, Green Goblin, an unidentified reality version ofGrizzly,Lady Octopus, a Mysterio Avatar, and Venom 2099. As the spider-themed characters are getting beaten, Madame Web is revealed to be a variant ofAunt May.An unidentified reality version of Vermin arrives stating that the Great Web of Life and Destiny has been procured. As Madame Web and her Sinister Squadron escape with the defeated spider-themed heroes and the Great Web of Life and Destiny, Weapon VIII emerges from the rubble vowing that it will be his turn to hit hard.^[234]

With all the Spider-Society members captured and placed in power inhibitor collars, Lady Octopus and the full-armored version of Rhino dump Miles Morales and Ghost-Spider in their cell. The Aunt May version of Madame Web sendsTravestyof Earth-2099 to Earth-2099 where he captures Spider-Man 2099 and the Julia Carpenter version of Madame Web. As the Gwen Stacy version of Green Goblin states that they got what they wanted and move forward with the plan as part of the deal, Madame Web revealed that she pulled her and the rest of the Sinister Squadron "out of the gutters" and that only she says when it will be over. Madame Web then orders Green Goblin to round up their teammates as Travesty has caught Spider-Man 2099 and Madame Web. Weapon VIII shows up at the base where he fights the J. Jonah Jameson version of Hobgoblin and Silvermane. Then he is ambushed by Green Goblin. As Weapon VIII tries to reason with Gwen, she stated that she became Green Goblin after taking the Goblin Serum when Madame Web showed her how she would die. When Green Goblin stated that she doesn't want to betray the Sinister Squadron and that she wants to rule it, Madame Web shows up with Hunter-Spider, Lady Octopus, an unidentified reality version ofSpeed Demon,and Travesty with Madame Web voicing her disappointment in her. Green Goblin then goes on the offensive as Lady Octopus protects Madame Web from one of Green Goblin's Pumpkin Bombs. As Weapon VIII knocks Green Goblin down, the rest of the liberated Spider-Society members arrive to help fight the Sinister Squadron with Web-Weaver fighting Hunter-Spider, Lady Araña fighting Madame Web, and the rest of the Spider-Society fighting Lady Octopus, Speed Demon, and Travesty. Madame Web states that the Web of Life and Destiny's powers are hers and that the entire Spider-Verse will soon kneel before her as she shows the captive Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2099 of Earth-2099, and Madame Web.^[235]

The Aunt May version of Madame Web orders the Gwen Stacy version of Green Goblin, Hunter-Spider, Lady Octopus, and Travesty of Earth-2099 to catch the spider-based heroes back into their cell. Spider-Punk lunges towards Madame Web only to be subdued by her. As the rest of the Spider-Society struggle against the Squadron Sinister members, Lady Araña and Spider-Woman of Earth-133 go to Spider-Punk's side as Madame Web mentions how she lost herUncle Benand her Peter Parker before she was approached by her world's Norman Osborn who helps to transform her into Madame Web. This enabled her to find candidates for her Sinister Squadron from across the Spider-Verse. At what's left of the Simms Building, Spider-Man, Spider-Man of Earth-2099, and Madame Web are in their imprisonment. Spider-Man 2099 tells Madame Web that her Aunt May counterpart is also destroying the Multiverse in the process as he instructs Lyla to interface with a certain tech and a certain individual. She instructs Lady Araña to interface with the tube that Madame Web is nearby as she dodges Madame Web's attacks. As Spider-Punk recovers and helps Weapon VIII get free from Travesty, Web-Weaver punches Hunter-Spider while Miles Morales and Ghost-Spider dodge Lady Octopus's tentacles. Spider-Cat helps Lady Araña by attacking Madame Web while Weapon VIII and Web-Weaver interface with the tube as the others fight the Sinister Squadron members where they discover that a Spider-Hero will have to sacrifice themselves to funnel the energy back into the Web of Life and Destiny. As Lady Araña starts to fade into the energy, Green Goblin turns against Madame Web as she throws herself and Madame Web into the energy as they start disappearing.^[236]

The Sons of the Tiger were three friends and martial arts students of Master Kee: Lin Sun, ofChineseancestry, was the leader of the trio and adopted son of Master Kee;Abe Brownwas anAfrican Americanfrom the streets ofHarlem;andRobert Diamondwas aCaucasian Hollywoodactor.

Lin Sun is returning from a martial artstournamentwith his first placetrophywhen he is suddenly attacked byninjasin front of his school inSan Francisco.After defeating the villains, he goes into the "Tiger Dojo", which has been ransacked. He finds a dying Master Kee, who tells him that there are forces in this world which would destroy us and then points to a box on a shelf, after which he dies. In the box, Lin finds three amulets made ofjade,a tiger's head and two claws: the symbol of the school. The inscription at the base of the box reads, "When three are called and stand as one, as one they'll fight, their will be done...For each is born anew, The Tiger's Son." They are later known as "the Amulets of Power".

Soon after, Lin meets up with his two friends, Abe Brown and Bob Diamond, who have also been attacked by ninjas. Lin recounts the story of Master Kee's death and gives each of them one of the jade tiger claw amulets. They soon discover that when they join hands and chant the inscription from the box they become mystically connected.
