The Abomination is a supervillain published by Marvel Comics. First appearing in Tales to Astonish #90 (April 1967), he is an enemy of the Hulk and considered to be the character's arch-nemesis. Though created through the same means, Abomination is stronger than his mortal enemy, due to either an increased concentration of Gamma Radiation or other circumstances. However, he is also just as destructive than the Hulk and gives no regard for human life. Added in version 4.3.5 of the Superheroes Unlimited mod, Abomination's body can be accessed through either the Gamma Containment Unit or Suit Assembly Unit. Whilst wearing it, the player will be granted access to his powers and abilities.
Backstory[]
The Abomination's true identity is Emil Blonsky, a former Russian agent and member of the KGB. A gifted spy, Blonsky was sent to investigate a new bomb being developed by the US government and take photographs for his superiors. Going through with the mission, the spy was caught in the blast and bombarded with Gamma Radiation. By sheer coincidence, this was also the bomb that turned Bruce Banner into the Hulk.
Although Blonsky survived, he initially seemed unaware of the side effects. However, he would eventually come face-to-face with the Hulk, during which he turned into a beast similar to the creature. Engaging in battle with the Hulk, Blonsky defeated him and nearly beat this opponent to death. Following this, he would go on a rampage, attacking nearby towns and terrorizing civilians. Dubbed "Abomination" by the military, he was finally defeated when Banner forged an alliance with his rival, General Thaddeus Ross, and drained the Gamma Radiation from Blonsky.
Despite apparently depowered, Blonsky regained his powers with help from a coven of witches. However, this time, he would stay in the Abomination form permanently, causing his personal life to break down quickly. Blaming the Hulk for his condition, the Abomination would work with various organizations and criminals to defeat the Hulk and destroy his life as Bruce Banner.
