Major Story Arcs

Urn is activated and sent to retrieve a woman and child in Pakistan who have used their Descendant powers. Father sends Urn along with Swine, the Ideal and the Origin to retrieve them. As Urn and his fellow adaptoids arrive as do the Secret Avengers with the same mission. Urn takes down Hawkeye and uses his own bow against Black Widow. Urn and the adaptoids flee with the woman and child however, Ant-Man hides in the leg of Urn’s pants and returns with them. They take a teleporter to their city, the Core and bring the woman and child to Father. Father determines the woman is too far gone into humanity to reach her full potential and orders Urn and the adaptoids to kill her. O’Grady reveals himself and saves the child. Urn and the adaptoids catch up with O’Grady and beat him to death.

Shortly after the rest of the Secret Avengers arrive to the Core and attack Urn. Urn is stabbed through the chest by Valkyrie as she and Black Widow escape with the child. Urn recovers and catches up with Valkyrie, this time draining her Asgardian powers. As Urn is about to impale Valkyrie, Venom webs the sword and whips it out of his hands and into Swine’s chest. Venom and Valkyrie take down Urn, Swine and the Ideal.
