6.Men, ended in Onslaught: Marvel Universe, and led directly into the "Heroes Reborn" storyline.The story itself was divided into two categories; "Phase" (comics that tied in directly with the battle against Onslaught), and "Impact" (comics that were affected by Onslaught, but not tying directly into the struggle against him).The event permeated almost all Marvel comic books published in summer 1996.Onslaught Reborn, by Loeb and Liefeld, saw the villain return and explored these dangling plot threads.This small element of Magneto's psyche took root in the dark corner of Xavier's mind, where his repressed anger at humanity's intolerance toward mutants was buried.This was the seed that would grow into the being known as Onslaught.Hoboken, New Jersey, having been hit hard enough by Onslaught to send him across the country, with a mental block on his brain, causing him to forget who or what Onslaught actually was (as he had learned Onslaught's identity).When Professor X attempted to scan Nate's mind, Nate accidentally pulled Xavier's astral form into the physical realm.As revealed later, this was the means by which the Onslaught entity learned how to manifest itself in a physical form.Onslaught's next major role in a story was, in which Cyclops, Wolverine, Storm, and Iceman are stolen from the mansion in the middle of the night and forced to fight his herald, Post.Men, warning him of his arrival before vanishing.Onslaught's physical form, as first seen here, was enormous and had a uniform similar to Magneto's.It was extraordinarily intelligent, and had vast psionic and magnetic powers.Xavier mused on his undeclared and inexpressible love for Jean Grey.Onslaught then offered Jean a power that would rival that of the Phoenix Force, but she rejected him, and for it Onslaught lashed out at her, burning her forehead with her own psionic power, overtaken by Onslaught.With a statement of "know my name", Onslaught cast her from the Astral Plane, leaving his name psionically burned onto her forehead (visible only to Jean herself).While Bishop had long thought that person to be Gambit, the aforementioned events made it clear that the actual traitor was Xavier, or more accurately, Onslaught.Men by disguising himself as Beast), Onslaught attempted to start a global apocalypse that would destroy all of humanity.Post defeated Cable, after which Cable and the Hulk fought each other.Afterward, the two teamed up with Apocalypse for an inconclusive assault on Onslaught.Meanwhile, with the aid of the mysterious mutant Gateway, Wolverine and Elektra were able to discern Onslaught's origin as a twisted synthesis of the minds of Xavier and Magneto.Although Sinister attempted to convince Grey to work with him, Grey was also psychically visited by Onslaught (again in Xavier's child form), who kidnapped him despite the interference of Franklin Richards.During the battle, Thor was able to physically separate Xavier from Onslaught.Without Xavier's influence, Onslaught was "free" (as he put it), no longer bound by Xavier.Later, after a confrontation with Xavier himself, Onslaught declared that neither mutants, nor humans, were worthy, and that all would be equally destroyed by him.However, this attack did not disable Onslaught, instead by releasing him from physical constraints it unleashed the full extent of 'his' power.Onslaught en masse, while the mutants released all their energy on the heroes in an attempt to destroy Onslaught, at the cost of killing the heroes in the process.Namor and the Scarlet Witch were also among those who sacrificed themselves.Thanks to Franklin Richards' power, the heroes who gave their lives to destroy Onslaught did not die; instead, they were reborn in a pocket dimension (Heroes Reborn).Onslaught Reborn
When the Scarlet Witch used her powers to depower countless mutants, including Magneto and Prof.Xavier, the power lost by Magneto and Xavier combined, and restored Onslaught (whose consciousness still remained lingering after his death), who is now determined to kill Franklin Richards and every hero that exists.Onslaught takes control of both the Human Torch and Mister Fantastic in an attempt to get Franklin but it is interrupted by the Thing and Invisible Woman.Earth, Onslaught follows him.While the Avengers assess their new threat which did not exist until Franklin appeared, they take into account what the boy says about Onslaught.However, they are in disbelief that he is the son of Susan Storm and Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four as they are not married in their reality.Loki, meanwhile, regards the arrival of the entity known as Onslaught as the perfect opportunity to kill Thor.Hulk, and in turn, falls under Onslaught's control.The mentally controlled Hulk champions against Thor.The heroes then unite to stop the savage beast, and when Iron Man flies from orbit and hits Hulk with incredible speed and power, Hulk is defeated.Iron Man then is mentally controlled and gets ready to strike Captain America, the man Onslaught wants defeated to eliminate all hope from Earth's heroes.At the Avenger's mansion, Executioner, Scarlet Witch, Enchantress, Ultron V, and Loki appear there before the baffled Franklin Richards.Car to send them both through the Negative Zone barrier in the Fantastic Four's lab, trapping them.Franklin returns home, Bucky finds himself on Earth 616, and Onslaught is last seen floating outside the Area 42 Prison in the Negative Zone.Appearance
Onslaught's armor and appearance have been drawn in vastly different ways, presumably due to different artists having conflicting interpretations of him.In several issues, he has been depicted with a red, noseless face, or a lack of purple rim around his face.However, several artists have drawn the red area of his armor as flesh.Onslaught's massive, monstrous second form has also been depicted in various ways.Powers and abilities
Onslaught has existed in two forms, each with a different spectrum of power:
The first form is associated with Onslaught the most, and the one he had when he was one with Xavier.In this form, Onslaught has shown a wide variety of abilities including extremely high levels of superhuman strength and resistance to injury.It should be noted that at this stage, that Onslaught only existed as a name, the actual character was developed afterwards 1.Onslaught's psionic powers appeared limitless, appearing to surpass even that of Xavier in his right mind.Wolverine believe he was a wolf pup, and making Storm think she was a child), to most conceivable forms of telekinesis that rival a full potential Jean Grey.Onslaught also possessed many forms of energy projection (lasers etc.Another demonstration of his raw power was when Onslaught ripped the Crimson Gem of Cyttorak out of the supposedly indestructible Juggernaut's body.This caused Onslaught to evolve into his second, more powerful form.Hulk (or more precisely, the "Savage" Hulk), not to be confused with the new Worldbreaker Hulk) after the Hulk's mind had been blanked and his strength and rage set to limitless levels, using the mental powers of Jean Grey.For a time, Onslaught had these powers while still in his first form; the majority of these came from the absorption of Nate Grey and Franklin Richards.Onslaught's true body was revealed to be a mass of pure, psionic energy that was immune to all forms of physical attacks and, under normal circumstances, all forms of energy as well.Onslaught's objective
The Overview book, Road to Onslaught, contained what appeared to be copies of Marvel documents (laced with corrective notes in red pen), entitled "Onslaught Made Easy", describing what it was Onslaught was trying to accomplish, in details not immediately apparent in many of the comics.Onslaught was to become thought itself (an objective he had actually managed to accomplish before his demise), and force himself into the minds of every living being.However, this was a miscalculation on Onslaught's part, as a human mind cannot contain such a massive consciousness (the documents compare this to forcing an orange into a grape).The control of the Sentinels was not to just terrorize the populace, nor was it to keep the heroes in check (especially since Onslaught no longer considered them a threat).He had abducted several scientists working on the Sentinels to gain access to Sentinel technology.However, just having vast amounts of psionic energy wouldn't be enough, as Onslaught would need a way to channel it.Using Xavier's knowledge of Landau, Luckman, and Lake and the transdimensional portals, Onslaught planned to tap into the portals to spread himself to everyone on the planet with a single thought.Subsequently, Onslaught had focused his assault on Manhattan due to the "mother of all these doorways", as the documents state, lying below Central Park; the Grand Chamber of the Morlock Tunnels, a "horrific bubbling cauldron of energy that he intends to wield", again quoting the documents.But, because he serves this power, he serves the one who wields it (which would be Onslaught).Release the Sentinels on Manhattan.Morlock Tunnels beneath Central Park.List of casualties

Onslaught has appeared as the final boss in Marvel vs.In that version of the story, Xavier subconsciously used Onslaught's power to call heroes from another universe to help the Marvel super heroes battle him.At the end of the game, the player faced Onslaught in the two forms seen in the comics.In two endings to the game, Jin Saotome (in his own ending) and Captain America (in Hulk's ending) sacrifice themselves to defeat Onslaught (who had become the mass of pure energy in said endings).Toys
