History
Mr. Beyond is a “Debaser Unit” Beyonder that went rogue and joined the Beyond Corporation, a collective of rogue Beyonders whose only purpose is to have “fun” and “play” with the denizens of the Multiverse. When Jason Quantrell, the CEO of Cortex Inc., managed to open a portal bridging the gap between Earth-616 and The Outside, Mr. Beyond reached into his body and transformed him into his avatar, subsequently taking over Quantrell’s plans of world domination through the use of products and brands which could infect the public consciousness.
It wasn’t until Luke Cage and his wife Jessica Jones confronted the man they thought to be Jason Quantrell that Mr. Beyond revealed its true nature to them by removing Quantrell’s face like a mask and explaining to them the purpose of the Beyond Corporation, before promptly exiling them into space where they were saved by the Blue Marvel, warning him of the situation at hand. Afterwards, while Spectrum was distracting Mr. Beyond, a team composed of Blue Marvel, Doctor Positron and Spider-Man infiltrated Cortex Inc.’s Headquarters and reprogram the portal to bring Mr. Beyond into their world.
After managing to reprogram the portal and link up to the Neutral Zone, where Blue Marvel’s son Kevin Brashear had been stranded, they told Kevin of the situation and had him use his powers to remove Mr. Beyond and consequentially Jason Quantrell from the Multiverse itself and send him back to The Outside, leaving a rather large mess behind in the process. Sometime after the birth of the Eighth Cosmos, a mysterious entity closely resembling Ben Parker possessed by Mr. Beyond began haunting the nightmares of Peter Parker, the same faceless phenomenon would later resurface as a hallucination overtaking Ben Reilly’s face and photographs of people he would have known had his memories remained intact following his tenure as a member of Beyond Corp.
