Serestus

Serestus was an Atlantean loyal to Attuma that used the Control Pearl to turn the Antarctic Abomination known as Torg into their mental slave. Kang announced that he would conquer the world and anyone that would claim territory in his name would have a rightful place in his new order. Attuma took his offer and attacked Prince Edward Island in Canada with Torg as their mental slave. The Avengers were split up into different units and the team of Jack of Hearts, Scarlet Witch, Hank Pym, Wasp and Triathlon dealt with Torg and the invading Attuma. Torg was relieved of his mental control when Triathalon removed the Control Pearl from the hands of Serestus. Torg was knocked back into the ocean and Attuma’s Atlantean army retreated.
