When she is kidnapped by terrorist organizationHYDRA,led by the NaziBaron Strucker,Charles and Magnus used their mutant powers to save her and defeat HYDRA. Immediately afterwards, Magnus left Gabby and Charles feeling that her and Charles' view on mutants and humans contrasted his own. Magnus left with Nazi gold HYDRA wanted to claim.[2]

Over some time, the two amicably ended their relationship. Soon after, Charles leaves Israel unaware that Gabrielle was pregnant. Years later, Gabrielle became the Israeli ambassador toGreat Britainliving inPariswith her young sonDavid.During a terrorist attack at her home claiming the life of David's godfather Daniel Shomron, David's mutant powers activated, ending with him killing the terrorists and putting himself in a catatonic state.[3]Later, David (who is now in his late teens) developed a disease the comic inaccurately describes asautism,which concerns his mother, who thinks it is a symptom of something more serious. Gabrielle did everything she could, but she turned to Dr.Moira MacTaggertfor help. She tells Moira that Xavier is David's father and that she doesn't want him involved. Unfortunately, David's powers began to manifest uncontrollably, absorbing the psyches of two of MacTaggert's friends,Tom CorsiandSharon Friedlander.Moira had no choice but to call Xavier to help who is assisted by some of theNew Mutants.When David absorbs Moira's andWolfsbane's psyches into his mind, Xavier andDaniused their powers to enter it as well. It is here that Xavier discovers he's David's father.[4]Gabrielle andCypherare also absorbed and they all meet David's various personalities, including that of the absorbed psyche of the terrorist leader who raided his home. Eventually, Dani and David's personalities returned everybody to their bodies, fixing most of David's mind and ridding him of his disorder. Despite her secrecy, Xavier does his best to help raise David.[5]

Later, Gabrielle becomes Magneto's attorney, who is on trial for crimes against humanity. The trial was halted when Baron Strucker's mutant twin children, collectively namedFenris,attacked the proceedings seeking revenge against her, Xavier and Magneto for their father's death. After Xavier and Magneto defeated them, Magneto did not return to the courtroom.[6]

Gabrielle loses David because ofBishopfrom an alternate timeline known as theAge of Apocalypseafter he created said timeline when he accidentally kills his father. Bishop in the AoA timeline prevents this from happening by killing David.[7]

Deeply saddened by the loss of her son, Gabrielle eventually moved on with her life. She continued work as the Israeli ambassador.[8]She, along with the mutant heroSabra,attempted to find out Magneto's true identity, but failed after he killed the forger Georg Odekirk who gave him the "Erik Magnus Lehnsherr" name.[9]Gabrielle was also part of theUnited Nationsdecision to give the island nation ofGenoshato Magneto, after he demanded an entire mutants-only nation.[10]

Gabrielle opposed the formation of the Mutant Response Division that was proposed byStephen LangandBolivar Trask.The group formed anyway.[11]

Pete Wisdomlater called Gabrielle to have a talk with Legion after he caused trouble across Great Britain. Following the coordinates in the car that was sent to pick up Legion, Gabrielle tracked the coordinates to Muir Island. After Gabrielle and Legion talked about what transpired in the "Age of X"reality, Gabrielle is accidentally shot by an Aqiri superhero whose president holds a personal grudge against Legion. As Gabrielle started bleeding, she told her son not to search his mind for a personality that has healing powers. Before passing away, Gabrielle told Legion that there haven't been any miracles from coming back from the dead. Infuriated with his mother's death, Legion incinerated his attackers and then teleported to the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning.[12]

She is the daughter ofJustine Hammerand theMandarin,[21]a relative ofJustin HammerandTemugin,and an enemy ofIron Man.Raised by her mother, they both harbor a desire for revenge against Tony Stark for Justin's loss, and see Stark as an obstacle to their success.[21]She first appeared as the girlfriend/assistant to tech-terroristEzekiel "Zeke" Stane,providing support to Zeke's attacks onStark Industriesbuildings around the world. When Zeke is apprehended by Iron Man andS.H.I.E.L.D.,Sasha is able to go underground, having never been discovered.[22]

FollowingNorman Osborn's fall from power, Hammer reappears out in the open alongside Justine asHammer Industries' heads and purchases numerous de-commissionedH.A.M.M.E.R.technologies to create alarge suit of powered armorthat they wish to market globally for new generation of soldiers.[21]Justine and Sasha embark on a campaign to discredit Iron Man in the industrial market, conspiring with the corrupt Pentagon general Babbage and staging civilian attacks in whichLt. Doug Johnsonis arranged to intervene before Iron Man. When confronted about her operations, Sasha attacks with her own biotech weapons with which Zeke augmented her body before being arrested, revealing her criminal intent to both Iron Man andRescue.[21]Shortly after, the Steelcorps launches a surprise attack on Stark Resilient by orchestrating a remote-server air-strike unwittingly piloted by young gamers on phones-unaware these actions were actually taking place in the real world. The combined efforts of Iron Man,War Machine,Rescue andMaria Hillare able to stop the strike and shut down the Steelcorps.[21]When the Hammers use their connections to arrange Zeke's secret release, Sasha introduces Zeke to her father's employ.[21]

After Johnson is turned into stone by theAsgardiandemonMokk: Breaker of Faithand believed dead, Sasha is theDetroit Steelarmor's new pilot by Justine.[23]However, Johnson is later revealed to be alive and kidnaps his replacement. Johnson brings Sasha bound and gagged to Justine, threatening to kill her unless the Detroit Steel armor is returned. Johnson releases Hammer after regaining the Detroit Steel suit's possession. Sasha and the Steelcorps battle Johnson, resulting in Sasha killing Johnson with her whips.[24]After Iron Man and Zeke joined forces to create a revolution and escape the Mandarin's captivity, Sasha and Zeke want revenge on Justine for what her father did to Zeke, and presumably kill her mother as well.[25]

In the story, Sasha and her boyfriend, who had been previously believed killed in "The Five Nightmares" storyline inThe Invincible Iron Manin which both characters first appeared, are in the African nation ofWakanda,where they are allied with the villainKlawagainstBlack Panther.The latter's forces dispatch Sasha and Ezekiel before defeating Klaw.[26]

Sasha Hammer's powers and abilities[edit]

Sasha Hammer has been augmented by advanced technology, enabling her body to generate powerful energy of an unspecified type. She can project this energy from her hands in the form of whips and swords that she can use in physical combat. Her enhancements also give her ability to fly. These abilities' limits have not been explicitly given, but she can use them to destroy an automobile and can prove a considerable opponent to Iron Man.[21]

When operating the Detroit Steel suits, she has at her disposal that full range of armaments and other features with which the Detroit Steel suits were designed, as well as modifications with which can be customized to a particular pilot. According to Hammer Industries, the Detroit Steel suit incorporates technology, such as C.N.S. (Controlled Exo-Enhanciles), that would eventually be used to end paralysis caused bycervical,thoracicorcorticospinalinjuries.Weighing four and a half tons,[21]the "oversized"[27]Detroit Steel towers over Iron Man,[21]at approximately twice her opponent's height.[21]The suit affords its occupant considerable protection from automatic weapons and explosives,[21]though the magically powered Mokk was able to easily rip open the armor.[28]

The Detroit Steel suit allows its users to fly (though Sasha has this aforementioned ability without one), and usually is seen with arotary cannonmounted on its right arm, and a specialized chainsaw on its left,[21]which can penetrate Iron Man'sBleeding Edge Armor.[21]There are rocket-powered munitions on the Detroit Steel suit's shoulders.[21]The rotary cannon can be dismounted so that the soldier can carry and fire it as a traditional handheld weapon,[28]and the Detroit Steel armor users have been seen outfitted with other types of weapons in this manner, including bothdirected-energy weaponsand scaled-up rifles.[28]Sasha's Detroit Steel armor has also been observed to have a directed-energy weapon in palm of its hands.[28]Those who pilot the Detroit Steel armor are required to undergo considerable surgical modifications, which leave implants visible on the pilot's chest, which Lt. Johnson (who first piloted the Mark One) felt "turned [Johnson] into a monster", though Hammer (who already had undergone a number of enhancements by Zeke) regards herself as Stane's "masterpiece".[21]As an executive of Hammer Industries, she has access to a wide range of armors that come in varying sizes and designs,[29][24]with different models designed for different environments andhot zones,including arctic climates and urban encounters.[21]

Hauptmann Deutschland[edit]

Markus Ettlinger / Hauptmann Deutschland(GermanforCaptain Germany), also known asVormund(Guardian), is a fictional character appearing inAmerican comic bookspublished byMarvel Comics.He was created byMark GruenwaldandRik Levins.

Markus Ettlinger is part of a team called the Schutz Heiliggruppe, which was a national superteam protecting Germany. He first appeared in a backup story inCaptain Americawhere the Schutz Heiliggruppe captured theRed Skulland abducted him back toGermanyin an attempt to put him on trial forwar crimes.Although they captured the Skull and subsequently his Skeleton Crew, they later surrendered the Skull to a falseThor,Iron ManandCaptain America,who were actually shapeshifting "bioplastoid" androids created by the Skull's lackeyArnim Zola.[63]

Realizing the deception, Hauptmann Deutschland followed the Skull back to America. After a brawl with Captain America, the heroes teamed up to track the Skull. They concluded the hunt when confronted with a false corpse of the Red Skull. The false Skull had been shot through the head and appeared to have been killed by theScourge of the Underworld,who left his trademark "Justice is Served" scrawled on the wall.[63]

Vormund's next appearance was in a somewhat convoluted tale where he set out with Zeitgeist, another member of the Schutz Heiliggruppe, in order to investigate the slaying of their partnerBlitzkrieger,who had been slain while investigating the murders of multiple South American local superheroes. Although Vormund was framed for the murders, it was eventually discovered that Zeitgeist was actually a somewhat obscure American villain known asEveryman.While fleeing Captain America, Zeitgeist tried to stab Vormund with his sword. Vormund redirected the force of Zeitgeist/Everyman's stab and killed him.[64]

Hauptman Deutschland is later seen aidingBlue Marvelagainst the organization The Terror-Hives of W.E.S.P.E.[65]

Naming controversy[edit]

When the issues ofCaptain Americacontaining Hauptmann Deutschland and the rest of the Schutz Heiliggruppe were to be published in Germany by licensee Condor Interpart, the names of the team were changed in accordance with the German taboos on references to Nazism, despite the team being distinctly anti-Nazi in behavior and the fact that Hauptmann Deutschland's name (literal translation: "Captain Germany" ) contains no actual reference to Nazism. In Germany, Hauptmann Deutschland was renamed Freiheitskämpfer (Freedom Fighter).[citation needed]

Due to a lack of coordination, when Hauptmann Deutschland next appeared in American comics, he was renamed Vormund, which means "legal guardian", "warden" or "custodian". Per Markus Raymond, a submitter toThe Appendix toThe Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe,Vormundactually should be used only in reference to a "legal guardian for a child or somebody else who can't talk legally for himself".[66]

When the mentally unstableMikhail Rasputinflooded the Morlock tunnels, many were believed dead. However, at the last instant Mikhail used his powers to open a portal into parallel dimension dubbedThe Hill.In this dimension, time moves at a faster rate, and even though it was a manner of months in the mainMarvel Universe,it had been between 10 and 20 years on the Hill.

On the anniversary of theMutant Massacre,a horrific event in whichMr. Sinister's henchmen theMarauderskilled many Morlocks, the members of Gene Nation reappeared in the main universe (Earth-616). Their mission was to destroy one hundred humans for every Morlock life that was lost, and also, in a side mission performed by Hemingway and Marrow, to kill some of the original Morlocks. In Marrow's eyes,Leech,one of the few to survive the massacre, was weak and instead of defending his people he hid like a coward. Fortunately, theWhite Queen,who was trying to recruit Leech to her teenage mutant teamGeneration X,was able to thwart their efforts. However, with the intervention of theDark Beast,Marrow and Hemingway escaped.[124]

Afterwards, a team of X-Men and the MorlockCallistoconfronted an attack group from Gene Nation, which included Vessel, that was threatening the lives of several civilians by attaching incendiary devices to them that were regulated byMarrow'sheartbeat.

Hulk Robot[edit]

Military's Hulk Robot[edit]

The first Hulk Robot was a simulacrum created by the scientists at Gamma Base that was used to test the value of the Iceberg Rocket that GeneralThunderbolt Rosshad his scientists create.[153]

A later model of the Hulk Robot was operated by a remote that is worn by an individual at a safe distance. During the time he was cured of his gamma-radiation condition,Bruce Bannerdonned the harness to fightLeaderduring his takeover of Gamma Base. Although the Hulk Robot fought Leader's Murder Module, it was destroyed in battle where the feedback nearly killed Bruce Banner.[154]

Another version of the military's Hulk Robot came into the possession of the magician Kropotkin the Great during one of his visits to Gamma Base. Even though he hasn't been to Gamma Base for a while, Kropotkin the Great still owns this Hulk Robot.[155]

Second Hulk Robot[edit]

Rusty and Arthur are two Maryland Institute of Technology students who constructed a Hulk robot to be the mascot for their school's all-star game, but Dr. Timothy Ryan considered it dangerous and wouldn't allow it. It was brought to life by cosmic energies released by theEternalsfromOlympiawhen they emerged from theUni-Mind.The energies granted the Hulk Robot sentience and increased its strength to rival the Hulk. It broke out of the lab and went on a rampage. When the National Guard couldn't stop the Hulk Robot, three Eternals members (Ikaris,Makkari,andSersi) were called in.[156]Both the Eternals and National Guard were losing untilZurasentered the fray.[157]When it charged Zuras, cosmic energies leaked and it was rendered inert.[158]

Later on,Doctor Doomfound the Hulk Robot and dismantled and rebuilt it to serve him.[159]He sent it to fight theThingwho thought it was the real Hulk after taking out the Grey Hulk.[160]When Thing discovered it wasn't the real Hulk during battle, he tore it apart.[159]

During theActs of Vengeanceevent, Doctor Doom gaveJesterII the Hulk Robot's parts and Jester rebuilt it (with the addition of humorous weapons in its arsenal) as a member of the Assembly of Evil. During theAvengers' press conference, the Hulk Robot attackedShe-Hulkand had her on the ropes untilWaspattacked the Jester's remote control causing the Hulk Robot to go haywire. She-Hulk destroyed it by flinging it into an energy blast fired byFenris.[161]

The Hulk Robot (or the non-operating version) was seen in a museum the Eternals kept in Olympia which held reminders of foes and their weapons. Zuras displayed the robot to Joey Eliot.[162]

During theFall of the Hulksstoryline, the Hulk Robot returned. WhenGalactuscreated the Cosmos Automaton to serve him as part of a later retelling of the Hulk Robot's origin as shown on the extraterrestrial disk, he abandoned it during a visit to one of the worlds that he would consume causing it to seek a new form for its body. After influencing Professor Gregson Gilbert into creatingDragon Manand finding it not to be a suitable candidate, it then influencedMad Thinkerinto creating a Hulk Robot. Even though he didn't know why he created, Mad Thinker had it locked away. After the extraterrestrial disk was done showing this toRed HulkandA-Bomb,Red Hulk considered decapitating it only for the Hulk Robot to activate upon absorbing the cosmic energy that was used to empower Red Hulk.

Bruce Bravelle[edit]

TheHuman Top(or just theTop) is aGolden Agesuperhero appearing inAmerican comic bookspublished byMarvel Comics.The character appeared in two stories published byTimely Comics(the predecessor ofMarvel Comics) in 1940 and 1942, and not since then. His real name isBruce Bravelle.[168]He is called "the Human Top" in the story titles but just "the Top" within the body of the stories.

Bravelle appeared in a ten-page backstory ( "The Origin of the Human Top" ) in the first (and only) edition ofRed Raven Comics,cover-datedAugust 1940, with script and artwork byDick Briefer.[169]

Bravelle's second appearance was in the backstory "The Red Terror" inTough Kid Squad,cover-dated March 1942.[170]

Bruce Bravelle was a test subject for a scientist who was trying to find a way to nourish the human body with electrical currents instead of food. In the middle of one of the tests, a bolt of lightning struck[171]the castle in which the experiment was being conducted, causing an opposing magnetic flow and giving Bravelle the ability to spin around at superhuman speed when he crosses his wrists or is exposed to electricity.[172]He can fly, drill his way through walls, and deflect bullets. He can operate underwater and travel at a speed of up to 250 miles per hour (400 km/h). His bullet-deflecting and wall-drilling powers are created by the intense whirlwind which he generates when spinning.

In his first adventure (published in 1940), the Top thwarts a bank robbery and is accused of being a thief when the bank manager personally keeps the returned money, but ultimately exposes the manager.[173][better source needed][174]

In his second adventure (published in 1942), the Top fought and defeated a sinister criminal mastermind called the Red Terror. The Red Terror and his goons derail and rob a train and escape in azeppelin.The Top tracks them to their hideout in an abandoned mine and kills them all as they attempt to escape.[citation needed]

David Mitchell[edit]

David "Davy" Mitchellwas a World War II hero, and member ofKid Commandos.He had the power to spin like a top at super-speed.

DuringWorld War II,teenagers David "Davy" Mitchell and Gwenny Lou Sabuki, were present at a stateside battle in which sidekicksBucky(Bucky Barnes) andToro(Thomas Raymond) of the superhero team theInvadersfought the supervillainAgent Axis.During the battle, one of Gwenny's father's inventions accidentally gave Gwenny and Davy superhuman powers. She becameGolden Girl,and he the Human Top.[175]The four youthful heroes defeated Agent Axis, and later formed the Kid Commandos, who were allied with the adult Invaders.[volume & issue needed]

The Kid Commandos even fought the Invaders, when they disagreed with the military's use of a Tsunami Bomb, which would have caused too much collateral damage. The bomb was never used, when the Invaders saw the testing site was populated with civilians.[176]

After the war, he was a member of the Penance Council andV-Battalion.[volume & issue needed]

His son, as Twister, had tried using mechanical means to simulate the powers of the Human Top, but eventually decided to serve the V-Battalion in a scientific capacity.[volume & issue needed]Davy is also the grandfather ofTopspin.[volume & issue needed]

In his later years as seen during the "Last Days" part of theSecret Warsstoryline, Davy moved into Valhalla Villas, a retirement community forGolden Ageheroes and villains that is located in Miami. He and the rest of the retirees were temporarily de-aged and went back into action one last time before the collision between Earth-616 and Earth-1610.[177]
