He also destroyed his laboratory, in order to prevent the Inhumans from studying his plans and findings. Maelstrom then order Deathurge to kill his current body so that he could escape the conflict into a new body. Thing defeats Maelstrom by throwing anti-terrigen mist on him which takes away his ability to absorb and manipulate Kinetic energy leaving him powerless. Blackbolt leaves to stop the anti-terrigen missile as the Thing fights Maelstrom, but is completely outmatched. ![]() Maelstrom holds his own against Blackbolt, but Phaeder dies in his sleep while the two are battling. Karnak manages to break free as Black Bolt arrives. Regardless, this action puts Thing, Gorgon and Karnak on his trail, who manage to find their way into Maelstrom's lab but are defeated by hypersonic rays and they are held in place in a prison. Maelstrom orders Deathurge to kill the captive Minions to prevent Inhumans from interrogating them and cloned them elsewhere. The Might of Maelstromįalon, one of Maelstrom's minions, delivered the canister of anti-terrigen particles to Maelstrom. The canister however falls into the ocean which Maelstrom sought to retrieve. So Maelstrom sent his minions in order to retrieve the anti-terrigen mist but the Minions are defeated by the Thing and Stingray and are captured. Richards creates anti-terrigen particles to cure people who have been transformed into Inhumans, but this is observed from a distance by Maelstrom, who planed to get the anti-terrigen particles so he can take over Inhumans. Finding this, the Inhumans the help of Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four. ![]() The Inhumans sought to cure the humans, they were shocked to find that Terrigen Mists were involved. Hydro, used Terrigen Mists to transform humans into amphibians, against their wishes. One of Maelstorm and Phaeder's associates, Dr. But later, Phaeder grew too old and decrepit to likely survive the cloning transfer to a younger body, Maelstrom dutifully tended to him as he continued their research. Soon, Maelstrom took on the acolytes Phobius, Helio, and Gronk, from the ranks of the Inhumans and Deviants and calling them Maelstrom's Minions (or sometimes The Terrible Titans). Phaeder and Maelstrom are thus indirectly responsible for many of the later actions of the Red Skull, High Evolutionary, and Magneto. In order to learn more, they traded advanced cloning technology to various super-villains, in return they would receive hard data of how their technology fared in the field. Against Earth's Superheroesĭecades passed, and Maelstrom soon surpassed his father in the area of genetics. His power rivaled that of Black Bolt himself. Upon Maelstrom reaching the age of adulthood, Phaeder exposed him to the Terrigen Mists, giving Maelstrom psionic mastery of kinetic energy. Eventually rescued by his father, they returned to a secret laboratory in the ruins of Attilan, where he and Maelstrom swore their revenge on the Deviants and the Inhumans. Discovered by the Deviants, who not only hated Morga’s appearance, but feared a mixing of the races, quickly captured her and the infant, Maelstrom. The two eventually fell in love and their union produced a son, Maelstrom. Morga shared more in common with Phaeder then either of them knew, a geneticist as well, she added her knowledge to Phaeder’s work. Shunned for her (by Deviant standards) disgusting appearance, she was considered a rare beauty by Phaeder’s Inhuman eyes. There he discovered a fellow exile, Morga, but this lovely woman was a Deviant. Phaeder traveled to a small island in the south Pacific to continue his research in secret. ![]() Phaeder sensing which way the wind was blowing, secretly cloned himself in order to fake his own death and vanished. Phaeder was something of a radical by Inhuman standards, he suggested cloning as a possible means to extend the lifespan of the Inhuman race, and the ruling council, led by Agon, voted to exile Phaeder. The creature who would call himself Maelstrom was the son of the Inhuman scientist, Phaeder, who was a scientific rival of then Inhumans king Agon, father of Black Bolt.
