Felonius Gru (Dimension-88618)

**Felonius Gru,** better known as just **Gru,** was once the world's most notorius supervillain, but now has become a good guy. He often invents new weapons and gadgets for him to use during his time helping people. He often visits his brother Gloo on the weekends, and sometimes they also visit their other brother Dru. One of Gru's favorite minions Stuart was killed during the Multiverse Arc, so him and Gloo did anything in their power to bring him back.

## History

### Rescuing Stuart and 2rt

Right after Ultron had let Batman and Deadpool escape the prison he was running, he brought the body of Stuart to the abandon Arkham Asylum. The X-Men caught wind of this, and sent out Cyclops to investigate, who also brought J. Jonah Jameson to take photos. When they arrived, they were greeted with Ultron, who was in front of two minion bodies, Stuart and 2rt. He monologued briefly, telling them that the minions didn't matter any more, and he flew off. Cyclops and Jonah brought the bodies out of the building, as a reanimated corpse attempted to slaughter them. As they finally got the bodies out, Gru approached them, and they explained the situation to him.

### Meeting Professor X

Cyclops quickly got Gru and the minions onto the X-Jet, and on their way to Professor X, they picked up Gru's brother, Gloo. When they landed, they were told by Cyclops to look for the red hallway, and after that Cyclops flew the X-Jet away. Shortly after, Gru and Gloo picked the two minions up using their anti-gravity machines they built, and attempt to find the 'red-room' that Xaiver lies in.

After twenty five minutes of searching, they finally found the room where Xaiver was in, and he informs them that if they would like to bring Stuart back to life, they need to climb the power tower, and turn it on. When the two brothers reached the top and pressed the button, they noticed that several large purple monsters had begun roaming around the facility. When asking Professor X about what the creatures were, he told them that they were his testing monsters. Professor X told the brothers that he would go into hiding with the minions, and that they would have to take care of the monsters. Gru and Gloo went back into the X-Facility, and looked for the armory so they would be able to defend themselves against the creatures.

They looked high and low, but never found anything. That was when Quicksilver sped in, and told them he was there to help. Gru and Gloo began to nag him, and make fun of him, but he tried to ignore it. While they looked for weapons, Gru found a gun labelled "HANK PYM", and asked Quicksilver about it, but he didn't know anything about it. The three of them continued to traverse the facility, looking for any more weapons they could use against the beasts, and eventually they ran into the basement of the building. When they got down there, Gru shot the 'HANK PYM" gun at some computer servers, and blew them up, much to Quicksilver's chagrin. Quicksilver asked the brothers if they had any friends they could call to help them destroy the monsters, but they didn't know anyone to call. Quicksilver ran off, and called in Iron Man.

About five minutes after Quicksilver called for Iron Man, he showed up and began to blast the monsters. He berated the twins for not doing anything against the creatures, much to their chagrin. After Iron Man had blasted away almost all of the beasts, he left one for Gru and Gloo to take care of, and with that, Iron Man flew away. Gru and Gloo thought as hard as they could about how to kill the last monster, when Gru came up with the idea of throwing the beast with their anti-gravity guns. Gloo picked up the purple demon and launched it into space. Moments later, Professor Xaiver rolled back in, and told them they needed to get into an X-Jet, and find a new place to work on Stuart and 2rt.

### Finding Hank Pym

Later that same day, Professor X would land the X-Jet at Pym Laboratories. Once they had exited the jet, Professor X explained that he hadn't been able to get ahold of Hank Pym, and that the two brothers would need to go and find him. Gru and Gloo understood, and went throughout the facility and looked for Hank.

After an extended search, the brothers found what looked like a purple version of one of their minions. As they examined it closer, Hank Pym entered the room, and aimed a shotgun at the two. He asked who they were, and the brothers explained who they were, and why there were there. Pym went on to explain that him, Xaiver, and Stuart were all working together to make a stronger race of minions. But, this new race of minions went savage, and behind Pym's back, Stuart and Xaiver killed them all. So Pym partnered with Ultron to kidnap Stuart, and bring him to an underground prison, where they would be able to run tests on him.

Moments after Pym explained this to the twins, he began to fire at them. The brothers ran off and gathered the weapons they had brought, and used them against Pym. Gru tampered with his Freeze Ray to make it a Death Ray. He used this weapon against Pym, and eventually was able to erase Pym from existence. Once Pym was gone, Gru and Gloo called Xaiver and told him what had happened. Professor X apologized for not telling the brothers sooner, and told them to make their way back to the jet, and he would explain everything to them there.

### Resurrecting Stuart

Once the brothers got back to the X-Jet, Gru and Xaiver worked for about a week, to bring Stuart back to life. They were able to do this successfully, and Stuart and Gru were able to have a nice reunion.

This reunion was short lived, as Professor X explained to the brothers that they were on their way to Ultron's base. They were to invade it, and destroy Ultron. After some banter between Gloo and Xaiver, Gru caught up with Stuart, and apologized for letting him die.

### Invading Ultron's Base

About fourty minutes later, the group arrives, and Professor X debriefs the brother on their mission. They are to infiltrate Ultron's base, find the robot, and destory him. The brothers then made their way into the base, by sneaking through the vents. After a brief moment of looking around, the brothers ran into Lars. The man introduced himself, and then asked about who Gru and Gloo were. Gru attempted to lie and say that they were just lost, but Lars didn't believe them. Lars told the brothers that he already knew who they were, and that he was the King of the Minion Army. Lars then began to use the minion energy weapon against the brothers, who were sent on a mad scramble to try and find the armory.

After a very long time running around Ultron's base, Gru and Gloo found the armory, and equiped themselves with weapons. Gru found John Walker's shield, and Gloo found himself a very large laser gun. With their new weapons, the brothers found Lars again, and continued their fight. Their fighting lead them nowhere, and eventually, Lars stopped his assault on the twins. He began to pursue the reason they were there. Gru told him the truth, which resulted in Lars continuing his pursuit against the twins. The fighting ended, when Lars requested that the brothers meet him at the top of Ultron's base.

When they arrived, Lars tried to talk to the brothers about what they really expected to happen with the ongoing fight. But before any real negotiations could be made, Gloo accidentally pushed Lars off of the edge of the tower they were on. Gru shamed him for this, and the two then went to go and find Professor X and Stuart. The brothers eventually found them, but they were in critical condition. Ultron had found them, and beat them within an inch of their lives. Professor X told the twins that Stuart would make it, but he would not. In his dying words, Professor X thanked the brothers. Gru and Gloo grabbed Stuart, and ran back to the X-Jet. As they arrived at the jet, they were confronted by Ultron, who told them that Metropolis would be nuked very shortly. This made Gru panic, as his mother lived within the city. Ultron laughed at this, and flew off. Gru began to panic, and Gloo tried to calm him down. The brothers agreed that they would quickly help Stuart, and then go and try to get their mom out of Metropolis

### The Good Fight

The brothers were able to get back to the X-Facility, and begin to nurse Stuart back to health. But before they could leave for Metropolis, Doctor Strange appeared through a portal, and informed the brothers about a fight that was about to happen on New Earth. He told them that he needed their help, and that they could bring Stuart if they wanted to. The brothers agreed to help, and made their way over to New Earth with Stuart.

The brothers met up with the rest of the New Defenders in the park, and prepared for their fight against Joker's Crazy Kooks. Strange eventually came back, after sending Magneto and Trump to the House of Ideas, and prepared the New Defenders for their oncoming fight. Just then, a multiverse portal opened, and Joker's Crazy Kooks emerged. The fight began, and in the end, the New Defenders won.

### The Food Coma

About a week after their fight against the Crazy Kooks, Gru and Gloo made their way to Central City. Once there, they bought a hotel room at the Four Seasons, where they would stay for the time being. During this time, the brothers found a Taco Bell to eat at, and accidentally ate themselves into a food coma. They would stay in the coma for about a week and a half, during which time, Amanda Waller attempted to get ahold of them, to locate the minion weapon that Gloo stole from Lars.

Since the brothers were not answering anybody, Waller sent out Task Force X to go and find the brothers. Eventually, the only member of the squad left, Skruu, found the brothers, who were finally out of their food coma. Upon seeing Skruu, Gru confused him with Gloo, who exited the bathroom promptly. Skruu cornered the brothers, and threatened them. He explained who he was, and why he was there. That's when Flag spoke to Skruu through the earpiece, asking how things were going. Skruu informed him that he found the brothers, and the weapon. Flag told him that was great, and to go get the weapon from them. Skruu thought about his deal with Eobard, and shut off his earpiece. Before Skruu could make a move on the brothers, Gru froze him with the freezeray.

The two brothers ran out of the room, and after a moment, Skruu broke out of the ice, and found the brothers hiding in the back by the pool. He confronted Gru, who stalled, while Gloo began to charge up the minion weapon. And Skruu was least expecting it, Gloo shot a giant blast at Skruu, which shined a blinding light in everyone's eyes. After everyone could see again, the Gru brothers looked down to see that Skruu had been turned into a minion. He began to babble at them in minionese, but no-one knew what he was saying. The Gru brothers brought Skruu back to the jet, and showed him off to Rick Flag.

Gru, Gloo, Skruu, and Rick Flag all made their way back to Belle Reve, where Gru explained to Waller what had happened. She thanked the brothers for their help, and before they left, asked them why they hadn't been answering anyones calls. Gru tried not to answer, but Gloo chipped in and told her about the food coma. Feeling ashamed, the brothers left the prison.

### The Infinity War

Upon seeing that Thanos was invading Earth, Doctor Strange gathers all of New Earth’s heroes. Once together, Strange explains to the heroes that Thanos is attacking and looking for the Infinity Stones. Strange details his plan to stop Thanos, which entails splitting each team up to locate the Infinity Stones before Thanos can. After explaining where each group is going, Strange portals each team out, and their searches begin. Gru and Gloo arrive in New York City on their airboats. They bicker over who drove better, and then realize they forgot which Infinity Stone they were looking for. The brothers quickly run into one of the children of Thanos, Bungolo Smerm. He tells them to turn away and leave the city, to which Gru lies to Bungolo and tells them they will leave immediately. The two brothers attempt to go the long way and walk around where Bungolo is guarding. They make it to Time Square, where Gloo begins to call the Infinity Stone a hamburger, as a code word. As the two traverse the city, they notice that Bungolo has been following them the whole time. Realizing what that means, Gru and Gloo rush back to the bridge that Bungolo was guarding but are stopped before they can cross it. Using his distraction skills, Gloo gets Bungolo to look in a different direction, as the two brothers speed past the villain and hide in a train station.

Gru and Gloo both exit the train station and attempt to sneak around the city, to avoid Bungolo finding them. They first check a grocery store, assuming that Bungolo would never check there. They are found only minutes later, and the brothers begin to run away from Bungolo Smerm. Bungolo shifts his focus on only chasing after Gru, but loses the brothers after they use their grappling hooks to repel onto a building. The two put their heads together and try to figure out where the stone could be when Gloo realizes it must be on the top of the Statue of Liberty. The two swing over to the statue and find it on the top of the statue’s torch. The brothers are thwarted, however, as Bungolo gets to the stone first. Gru thinks that they could possibly bargain with Bungolo, but this doesn’t work, and Bungolo beams back into Thanos’ ship.

Later, when the Defenders are all together in the park, Strange gives them a speech, as Thanos’ ship appears above them. Thanos beams down and stares at the Defenders head-on, with his three stones. Thanos uses the Power Stone to take out Strange but is caught off guard when Gru freezes Thanos’ arm and leg with the freeze ray. Cumlord turns on his music and attacks Thanos, but is quickly tossed to the side. Thanos then smashes the ground, using the Power Stone. This causes Krabs, Gru, and Gloo to shoot high into the air, but Strange catches them with portals.

When Gloo wakes back up after being knocked out, Gru comes over to check on him. They don't get long to chat, as Gru is erased from existence, due to Thanos acquiring all of the Infinity Stones.
