Lifeform

*"I've given him the **gift** of **death**... and now I understand -- **death** is **MY LIFE!** You shall **be part** of that **life! I am hunger!** A hunger **never sated.**"*
―George Prufrock
After being exposed to the experimental Progamma Virus, **George Prufrock** mutated into the insane and super powerful being known only as the **Lifeform**.

## Biography

*"It's very important for me to **tell** you this, so that you'll understand I'm **not** the bad guy. I'm not a **villain**, or something. I'm just one guy who got caught up in something **bigger** then he was."*
―George Prufrock
George Prufrock joined A.I.M. to find direction and please his father, only to be mutated by an experimental virus into the monstrous being known as the Lifeform.

Dazed and confused, he encountered the Punisher twice before being blasted by a rocket launcher. Surviving the attack, the Lifeform regenerated into increasingly more monstrous forms.

It battled Daredevil, the Hulk and finally Captain Marvel. The cosmic heroine carried the now-gargantuan Lifeform to a dead world - where it remains dying and alone.
