Blackjack O'Hare

Blackjack O'Hare is a fictional anthropomorphic hare in Marvel Comics. The character, created by Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema, first appeared in The Incredible Hulk #271 (May 1982).

Blackjack O'Hare is a mercenary and leader of the Black Bunny Brigade. He was hired by Judson Jakes and Lord Dyvyne to kidnap Lylla, the C.E.O. of Mayhem Mekaniks. He planned on betraying his employers by marrying Lylla and inheriting the company, but was found out. He was rescued by Rocket Raccoon and after a series of incidents that caused him to question his own loyalty, he aided Rocket in defeating the tyrants and left with his new friends to start a new life.

All this appeared to be false when Rocket visited Halfworld and discovered that Blackjack, along with Lylla and Wal Rus, were all actually service animals for the mental patients who inhabited the planet. Blackjack married Lylla after Rocket left to ensure the imprisonment of a dangerous criminal.

However, this story was immediately retconned as Blackjack returned as a mercenary and adversary to Rocket and Groot. Blackjack was once again working for Dyvyne with his next assignment being that he kidnap Princess Lynx. Rocket, Groot and Wal Rus arrived to defeat Blackjack, his brigade and Dyvyne, once again.

He turned up again, disguised as an impostor Rocket and framing him for a series of murders. He reveals his identity to Rocket and claims that the reason for framing him was that he ruined his chance to assassinate Princess Amalya and destroyed his reputation in the process. Amalya had become a "General" and arrived with Rocket's ex's in an effort to exterminate him themselves. Blackjack considered the possibility of assassinating her now, but was shot by Amalya because he was talking out loud. As a last ditch effort he fires a missile at Rocket, but it gets deflected and Blackjack is presumably killed.

}} 
Elton Healey was born in Reno, Nevada. Along with his brother Alvin, Elton spent years as a street performer, becoming a master juggler. He also learned how to become a capable street fighter. Using these skills, Elton became the juggling supervillain Oddball, adopting the name because of his loony nature. Along with fellow juggling-themed supervillain Bombshell, Oddball was hired by Crossfire to eliminate Hawkeye and Mockingbird. Oddball and Bombshell confront and subdue the two heroes and deliver them to Crossfire. However, Hawkeye manages to escape and is able to defeat the three supervillains. Oddball and Bombshell were later rescued from prison by Oddball's brother Alvin, alias Tenpin.

Together with Bombshell, Tenpin, Knicknack, and Ringleader, Oddball forms the Death-Throws, a team of supervillain jugglers. The group are hired by Crossfire to help him escape from prison. The Death-Throws complete their mission, but decide to hold Crossfire hostage instead. The group are defeated and arrested by Hawkeye, Mockingbird and Captain America. Later, Oddball and the rest of the Death-Throws, along with various other supervillains, attempt to claim the bounty put on Hawkeye's right arm by Crossfire. However, all of the supervillains looking to claim the bounty are defeated by Hawkeye, Mockingbird and Trick Shot.

On his own again, Oddball dresses up as a police detective in order to ambush Hawkeye when he was showing Avengers young recruits Justice and Firestar around a prison. Oddball releases the prisoners in an attempt to swamp the heroes with enemies. Hawkeye and the young Avengers are able to win the battle and stop the prison riot. Oddball was later recruited by Doctor Octopus to join his incarnation of the Masters of Evil.
Oddball was killed when taking part in the Bloodsport competition in Madripoor (which also featured Wolverine, Mister X and Taskmaster). He was slain in the first round of the tournament by a tribal warrior called the Headhunter.

Orville Bock
Orville Bock became the new Oddball and joined the Death-Throws. Oddball joined the rest of the Death-Throws in London after they were hired by R.A.I.D to take part in a terrorist attack on the city. They were subsequently defeated by Union Jack and Sabra. During the Dark Reign storyline, Quasimodo researched Oddball and the rest of the Death-Throws for Norman Osborn.

Powers and abilities
Oddball is an expert at juggling, pitching, and catching, with superb coordination, and is highly skilled with thrown objects. He normally carries an assortment of weighted balls and ball-shaped throwing weapons. He typically carried ten  diameter balls filled with various substances: tear gas, super-adhesive, hydrochloric acid, smoke, concentrated sulfur, spent uranium, itching powder, magnesium flare, a powerful impact-activated electromagnet, a powerful impact-activated sired, or other juggling balls with more exotic contents. He also carried marbles used to trip foes. Oddball has extensive experience in street fighting techniques.

Okkara

Okkara was believed to be a sentient island located in the South Pacific that served as the nation for the 2nd generation of Mutants in the ancient times, until the Twilight Sword of Amenth split it into two separate beings, Krakoa and Arakko. Later it was revealed that Okkara actually began life two billion years ago as the human mutant named Grove, one of the 1st generation mutants that belongued to a thriving society known as the Threshold. Calling themselves the "Enriched", the Thresholders were attacked by the Unbreathing, an anaerobic form of life to whom oxygen was deadly. To combat the Unbreathing the Thresholders engineered sentient bacteria Arkea and Sublime, but they went out of control and turned upon the Threshold, infecting their bodies to use as hosts.
Grove herself was gravely injured in battle but survived through her mutant gift, to heal by vegetative growth which changed her almost human form with small sprouts into a fully bark-covered form. Having much changed, Grove took on the new name of Okkara. It was also revealed that when the Celestials arrived on Earth a million years ago to create the Eternals and Deviants, they also created the Great Machine, and just so happened to base its systemic design on Okkara, who by now was already a living island.

Omertà

Omertà (Paul "Paulie" Provenzano) is a mutant appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character is featured in the Eve of Destruction story arc in Uncanny X-Men.

Paulie first appears in the Eve of Destruction storyline, beginning in Uncanny X-Men #392.

After just being discharged from the United States Marines, Paul Provenzano returns to his home in Brooklyn, where he attempts to take over the local 'chapter' of the Mafia. The three leaders, whom Paulie has known all his life, were meeting in a local bakery, a mob-owned business. The leader declared he would not be popular if he made a "made man" out of a mutant. Paulie explains he was taking over. At first, they were amused by his declarations, then they shoot him. Paulie easily resists their bullets, then brutally injures the men.

Jean Grey surprises and lectures him on the seeming waste of using his powers to take over the local mob. Paulie correctly guesses that she is here to recruit him into the X-Men and agrees to join if only to see her in her costume. Jean's intention is to recruit Paulie for a mission to Genosha, to rescue the rest of the X-Men from Magneto. (Uncanny X-Men 392)

Jean briefly leaves Paulie to enter the X-Mansion while she talks with Sunpyre on the front driveway. Their conversation is interrupted moments later as Paulie is thrown through the front doors, followed by Northstar. Paulie crudely states his objections to working with the openly gay Northstar. In their heated exchange, Paulie dares Northstar to hit him, counting on his invulnerability to protect him. Northstar's repeated blows delivered at superhuman speed, however, inflict a nosebleed on Paulie and render him unconscious. Throughout the storyline, Paulie regularly calls Northstar "Maple-Leaf" and insults him for his homosexuality. (Uncanny X-Men 392)

During the trip Genosha, Paul, and teammate Hector Rendoza receive a telepathic 'crash course' in their mutant powers, allowing them better control and understanding.  Moments later, Paul suggests that he and Jean enter the cargo bay for 'privacy'. As a rebuttal, she makes him perceive her as elderly and overweight, an unpleasant visual. He also participates in a telepathic jaunt into Dazzler's mind, to see what had recently ravaged the dimension she had arrived from. The attackers were childlike versions of the alternate reality Age of Apocalypse villains. This Paulie is one of the few people in current continuity to have an inkling of what had gone on in said alternate reality.

Paulie and the others end up in a Genoshan public square, attempting to rescue Professor Xavier. The makeshift team battles Magneto. Paulie is convinced that Magneto has slain Dazzler, though this is later proven untrue. After diversionary taunting, the villain launches Paulie toward space, but Northstar saves him. This results in Paulie offering an apology for his behavior to Northstar. Northstar accepts and Magneto is soon subdued by the X-Man Wolverine.

Back at the X-Mansion, despite an offer to stay, most of the team, including Paulie, left.

Powers and abilities
Omertà has complete invulnerability and superhuman strength. (Can lift up to 20 tons)

One-Above-All

The One-Above-All was created by Mark Waid and Mike Wieringo and first appeared in Fantastic Four #511. In his few appearances, he took the appearance of Jack Kirby, which may suggest he is the representation of the actual comic book writers inside the Marvel Multiverse.

The One-Above-All is the sole creator of all existence in the Marvel Multiverse and, possibly, the Omniverse. He is also the supervisor of the Living Tribunal.

When a pregnant Susan Storm feared for her husband's possible death at the hands of the "all-powerful" Silver Surfer, Uatu the Watcher tells her that there is only one true all-powerful being and that his only weapon is love. When Doctor Strange encountered Eternity, the abstract entity stated that only God is the ruler of all realities. When Thor compared his power with Odin and other gods and abstract entities, he notes that the Creator of All Universes must be far more powerful than all of his creations combined.

The Living Tribunal was stated to be the representative of the One whose might far exceeds that of Eternity. Master Order and Lord Chaos wished that the Supreme Will may smile upon Adam Warlock, who also described the Living Tribunal as the servant of the being above even the gods. When the Cosmic Cube Kubik met the Living Tribunal, the being also stated the same thing about himself and again when he undoes the destruction caused by Adam Warlock with the Infinity Stones. When Protégé tried to become the most powerful being in the existence, he was instead absorbed by the Living Tribunal, who stated that it was impossible to be more powerful than his supervisor and wished he may forgive Protégé.

When the Thing's soul was trapped in a place between life and death, the rest of the Fantastic Four located the Thing's soul and came across the One-Above-All, who restored the Thing back to life and promised to the team that new wonders would be discovered. When the Cosmic Ghost Rider was retconned into the story, the One-Above-All stated that the Rider was not one of his creations and denied him access to his room, leaving the Rider to talk to his actual creator who resembled Donny Cates and was also living in the same place as the One-Above-All. The-One-Above-All absorbed Cosmic Ghost Rider, turning the One-Above-All into the most powerful mutant in Marvel. He then encouraged a grieving Peter Parker to keep his faith, even in the face of his Aunt May's death. When a bartender asks Mephisto about the nature of the Living Tribunal, the demon states that he is just the biggest kid in the playground compared to the principal.

One Below All

The One Below All is the "dark reflection" or evil manifestation of the One-Above-All, created by Al Ewing and Joe Bennett, and first appeared in The Immortal Hulk #5 in the form of Bruce Banner's father, Brian Banner, his agent. Alluded to as the qlippoth, or "Hulk", of God, the One Below All is a malevolent and destructive force; when it speaks, it states that "I howl through many mouths. I break with many hands. They are themselves, but they are also me. I have all the power you give me and my weapon is hate.", in contrast to the One-Above-All's statement that "I see through many eyes. I build with many hands. They are themselves, but they are also me. I am all-powerful. My only weapon is love.". The One Below All is alluded to as the source of all gamma mutations in the Marvel Universe.

The One Below All resides in the Below Place, which is the lowest layer of Hell. It, as well as the Below Place, is kept behind a metaphysical 'Green Door'. This was first discovered by Brian Banner in a dream. The One Below All is also assumed to be the reason Brian began to drink, lose his mind, and eventually kill his wife. When it came to the day of the first gamma bomb test, helmed by Bruce Banner, the One Below All's powers were released when the power of its detonation partially opened the Green Door and created the first gamma mutate, the Hulk.

The One Below All possessed Jailbait of the Riot Squad who lost control of her powers. When she died, her brother Hotshot had to hold a church hostage in order to perform the last rites of Jailbait. He claimed that Jailbait was possessed by the devil. Then the One Below All possessed Sasquatch after he was killed in a bar fight. This drove Sasquatch on a feral rampage until the Hulk defeated Sasquatch and drained the gamma energy out of him and Sasquatch regressed back to Walter Langkowski. Through this absorption of Sasquatch's gamma energy, the One Below All then transferred into Banner, mocking the Hulk from within Banner's mind with the image of Brian Banner. Brian's ghost was able to regain some control of himself and told the Hulk about the One Below All's plan to enter and control a host body.

The One Below All managed to gain control of the Absorbing Man's body through an experimental procedure using gamma radiation to make him strong enough to fight the Hulk. When his soul encountered the One Below All, the Absorbing Man was unable to comprehend its true form, so much so that his physical body was possessed and split in half, and made its way to the site of the first gamma bomb detonation. While fighting the Hulk, The One Below All absorbed a great deal of his gamma energy, rendering him weak and misshapen. The two reached a stalemate, with the Hulk reabsorbing energy only for the Absorbing Man to take it back again until Puck uses a specialized weapon to blast a hole through the Hulk's chest while the Absorbing Man escapes. Using the ambient gamma radiation from the gamma bomb's detonation, The One Below All uses the Absorbing Man to open the Green Door and plunges New Mexico into the Below Place.

After the Hulk and Bruce Banner split apart, the One Below All appears in its 'true' green cloud form as it prepares to take over the rest of Earth. When the Hulk opposes its plan, the One Below All unleashes on him demons, shaped like the empty 'husks' of people, one, in particular, the husk of General Ross, which transforms into a husk of the Red Hulk to fight. With help from the Absorbing Man and Puck, the Hulk was able to reabsorb the Absorbing Man's gamma radiation and use his thunder clap to disperse the One Below All's cloud form and end his threat to the world.

Doctor Strange later spoke to Mephisto about removing the One Below All's possession from the Hulk after the brief Defenders reunion. Mephisto, however, states that the One Below All is far stronger than he is.

A flashforward to the end of the Marvel Universe shows the One Below All still controlling the body of the Hulk and consuming the sentience of the cosmos, forcibly taking on the same role as Galactus for the next iteration of the Multiverse and becoming the "Breaker of Worlds".

During the "Absolute Carnage" storyline, Bruce Banner had a theory that Knull can either be an aspect of the One Below All or a creature that it controls.

In the final issues of The Immortal Hulk, as well as its one-shot Time of Monsters and spinoff one-shot Empyre: The Immortal She-Hulk, it is shown how the One Below All brings anyone mutated with gamma radiation to the Below Place, with the first human to be so being Tammuz from Jordan, 9500 BCE. Later, gamma-mutated scientists Brian Banner and Samuel Sterns (the Leader), both enemies to Bruce Banner, were transported to the Below Place via the Green Door where they both were merged into a being which Sterns was primarily in control of and called after his own alias, the Leader. The being was tasked to destroy Bruce Banner.

After the Leader imprisoned the Banner persona (from his own mindscape) in the Below Place, the Hulk and Joe Fixit personas controlled his body and fought the Avengers. After that, he encountered the Fantastic Four, who transported him via the Forever Gate to the Below Place, where the personas separated and meet the Banner persona. They fight the Leader and destroy him, freeing Sterns. Finally, the two personas ask the One Below All about the reason for the Hulk's existence and demand to show his actual face behind the clouds. The One Below All agrees and the green clouds are replaced and outshined by a yellow glowing light coming from the One-Above-All, who reveals himself to be simultaneously serving as the embodiment of creation and all good and of destruction and all evil. The One Above All says the Hulk's existence is a necessity and that the latter serves as a counterweight to other, lesser good. He tells that the Hulk can be what it chooses to be: strong and ruthless, or forbearing and humane. In the case of what to do with Sterns, who lay on the ground beside him, the Hulk decides that he is to be forgiven. Afterward, the Fantastic Four brought all three personas, now together in the body of Bruce Banner, as well as Sterns, back to Earth.

Opal Tanaka
Opal Tanaka is known primarily as the former girlfriend of Bobby Drake (Iceman), a member of the mutant superhero team called the X-Men. Tanaka was first introduced in issue #51 of X-Factor in February 1990, created by Louise Simonson and Terry Shoemaker. Opal Tanaka lives in New York City and when X-Factor's ship takes up residence in the city, it blocks the sunlight that would strike her apartment, causing her plants to wilt. She encounters Iceman, who had come into the music store where she works, and expresses her views to him. Bobby, smitten with her, asks her out. Intrigued by Bobby, she accepts.

Oracle

Oracle is a Shi'ar who is a member of the Shi'ar Imperial Guard. The character, created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Dave Cockrum, first appeared in The Uncanny X-Men #107 (October 1977). Oracle, whose alter-ego is Lady Sybil, has telepathy and can exert control over others' minds. Using this power, she can project stun bolts. She also has psychoscopic awareness, or "Mind-Sight": the ability to expand her over-consciousness to read the impressions left by events in the fabric of time and matter. Like many original members of the Imperial Guard, Oracle is the analog of a character from DC Comics' Legion of Super-Heroes: in her case Saturn Girl. Oracle is originally romantically linked with fellow Imperial Guardsman Starbolt; she is later engaged to marry Flashfire (an analog of Lightning Lad, to whom Saturn Girl was also romantically linked).

Part of the division of the Imperial Guard known as the Superguardians, Oracle is amongst the first of the Imperial Guard encountered by the team of superhuman mutant adventurers known as the X-Men who sought to rescue the Princess-Majestrix Lilandra Neramani from her insane brother, then-Majestor D'Ken. After the battle, Lilandra takes over as Majestrix, and the Guard swears allegiance to her.

Later, a renegade faction of the Imperial Guard become traitors, deciding to serve Lord Samédàr, Deathbird, and the Brood in their conspiracy to overthrow Shi'ar Princess-Majestrix Lilandra. Oracle is one of the faction of the Guard that remains loyal to Lilandra and, with the X-Men's help, battles the renegades.

Deathbird succeeds in a second coup attempt. Oracle is with the Guard when they come into conflict with a rogue Space Knight named Pulsar and an alien named Tyreseus. After a large battle which also involves Rom and other Space Knights — which leads to the deaths of four new Guardsman — Pulsar and Tyreseus are defeated.

Empress Deathbird commands the entire Imperial Guard, including Oracle, to fight the combined forces of the Starjammers and Excalibur on Earth so that she can claim the power of the Phoenix Force for herself. The Guard are forced to retreat when Deathbird is put in danger. (Some time later War Skrulls impersonating Charles Xavier and the Starjammers depose Deathbird and restore Lilandra Neramani to the throne. Deathbird cedes the empire back to Lilandra as she has grown bored of the bureaucracy.)

Oracle is again part of the mission during Operation: Galactic Storm, an intergalactic war between the Shi'ar and the Kree. The Imperial Guard are integral to the Sh'iar creating a massive super weapon — the "Nega-Bomb" — using Kree artifacts, including the original Captain Marvel's Nega-Bands, which the Guard steals from the dead hero's tomb. This bomb is capable of devastating an area equivalent to that of the Kree Empire (which is supposedly located throughout the Large Magellanic Cloud). Ultimately, the Nega Bomb device is successfully detonated, devastating the Kree Empire, with billions dying instantaneously (98% of the Kree population). The Shi'ar annex the remnants of the Kree Empire, with Deathbird becoming viceroy of the Kree territories.

Oracle has many further adventures with the Imperial Guard, in storylines involving Ronan the Accuser and the Inhumans, and such storylines as "Emperor Vulcan," "Secret Invasion," X-Men: Kingbreaker, "War of Kings," "Realm of Kings," the "Infinity" crossover, the "Trial of Jean Grey," "Time Runs Out," and the return of Thanos.

Ismael Ortega

Ismael "Izzy" Ortega is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character was created by David Hine and David Yardin and debuted in the series District X, where he was partnered with the X-Man Bishop.

Fictional character biography
Ismael Ortega is a New York City police officer that was stationed in Mutant Town along with his partner Gus Kucharsky. After a horrible accident where a mutant woman uses her powers of persuasion to have Gus kill her husband, and herself (and an attempted suicide), Izzy gets a new partner: the X-Man Bishop. They have several events to deal with during the series, including: stopping the drug trafficking of a mutant drug called "Toad Juice", trying to intervene in a gang war between rival mob bosses "Filthy" Frankie Zapruder and Daniel "Shaky" Kaufman, discovering and stopping a group of tunnel dwelling mutants (who are not the Morlocks) that are murdering innocents, as well as keeping an eye on the mysterious Mister M and finding who put a hit out on him. Aside from work, Izzy also has two young children — Chamayra and Esteban — and a wife named Armena who is a mutant. One afternoon Izzy left his gun at home and it was found by his son Esteban. The boy accidentally shot his sister and she would have died if not for the intervention of Mister M, who removed the bullet and sealed the wound. This caused a lot of tension in his marriage, and instead of dealing with his problems Izzy ran into the arms of Lara the Illusionist.

With the Scarlet Witch going mad and restructuring reality in the House of M storyline, Mutant Town became the mutant paradise Mutopia X. Izzy was one of the few high-ranking humans, and the main tension of the series was between him and his wife. They were trying to decide whether or not to let Chamayra go through the Rite of Transformation which would unearth her mutant potential. Izzy found the idea that normalcy was shunned —in fact it was considered a medical condition— appalling, whereas his wife wanted their daughter to go through with it. Like the main Marvel Universe, Chamayra was shot but this time Mr. M was not able to help her, since she was already dead. The reality later reverted to its proper order, but Chamayra had an odd side-effect: she was suffering from massive internal bleeding, like she had been shot with an "invisible bullet". Izzy ran to get Mr. M to help his daughter again, but it turned out to be a replay of the House of M: they arrived too late to save her. Distraught, Izzy was contemplating suicide until Bishop came and convinced him to consider his family. At the end of the series, Armena, now human, and Izzy reconciled. It is unlikely that Izzy continued his job at the police department, because at the end of the series he vowed never to use a gun again.

Emily Osborn

Emily Osborn is a supporting character in Marvel Comics. The character, created by J. M. DeMatteis and Sal Buscema, first appeared (as a photo) in The Spectacular Spider-Man #180 (September 1991). She was Norman Osborn's wife and Harry Osborn's mother.

She was apparently the only person that Norman ever showed love to, but their son's birth had weakened her with her dying sometime after.

However, Emily turns up alive where she faked her death and poses as "Emma", a nanny hired by Liz Allan to be there for Normie Osborn and Stanley Osborn. She later took blood samples of her grandchildren for unknown reasons.

During the "Go Down Swinging" storyline, Emily finds out that the Red Goblin is coming after their grandchildren. To keep Normie and Stanley safe, Emily abducts the two. Liz had tracking chips placed in the children as Liz, Mark Raxton and Harry find the children and discover that "Emma" is actually Emily. When the Red Goblin attacks, Emily gets away with Harry, Liz, Mark, Normie and Stanley while the Red Goblin fights with two Spider individuals as well as the Human Torch and Clash. When the Red Goblin defeats the group and catches up with the Osborn family, Emily witnesses the Red Goblin place a fragment on the Carnage symbiote on Normie. When the Red Goblin throws Emily through the window, she is saved by Spider-Man. Emily leaves the area with Stanley. Following the Red Goblin's defeat, Emily meets up with the rest of the Osborn family at Alchemax where she's forgiven for abandoning her family.

Alternate versions of Emily Osborn
The Ultimate Marvel version is renamed Martha Osborn. Martha is killed by a muscular, grotesque, demonic-like monster who was actually her husband.

Emily Osborn in other media
 Emily Osborn appears in a photograph in Spider-Man (2002).
 Emily Osborn makes non-speaking cameo appearances in The Spectacular Spider-Man.
 Emily Osborn appears in Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark. 
 Emily Osborn appears in Spider-Man (2018). This version, prior to the events of the game, died from the neurological Oshtoran syndrome, which Harry Osborn also inherited. Norman Osborn's work to find a cure led to the development of the Devil's Breath virus and his use of the Venom symbiote.
 Emily Osborn is mentioned again in Spider-Man 2 (2023). A flashback reveals that Emily died the same day Harry and Peter had broken into Midtown High in order to get a backup of a science presentation they did together which was stored in a USB drive. Peter is present when Harry is met by his father Norman who informs him of Emily's death. In the present, Harry starts the Emily-May Foundation in her and May Parker's memory and offers Peter a job there. Later, when Harry becomes Venom, the symbiote uses Emily's voice to console him after he killed Kraven the Hunter to convince him to "heal the world".
