Gemas del Infinito
Following the arrival of the eternal Sersi to the Ultraverse, Hardcase joins his teammates of Ultraforce to fight the Asgardian god Loki, who was reuniting the six Infinity Gems. Hardcase and Ghoul searched for the Soul and Time gems but encountered reanimated corpses of his old allies from the Squad and the Exiles and have to abandoned the illusions. Thanks to Sersi, Ultraforce could escaped to Earth. Later Loki contacted the Grandmaster of Marvel Universe and they agree to pit Ultraforce against the Avengers in a fight for the infinity gems. In the encounter, Hardcase fought Captain America. The Ultra hero was stronger, but Captain America was more experienced and convinced Hardcase to have a truce. The two teams saw the defeat of Loki and the birth of Nemesis, the entity contained in the Infinity gems. Nemesis created a pocket dimension with elements of Ultraverse and Marvel universes. Finally, Hardcase and Captain America led their teams to defeat Nemesis. The destruction of the entity, created a reality shock in the Ultraverse, that apparently erased Hardcase from existence.
