As he grew older, he expressed a desire to prevent what was done to him to other mutants. Building himself a suit of armor, he became known as the Administrator, an anti-mutant who was against mutant powers. Though he was doing this in order to help his kind, many mutants took the wrong conclusions and he soon had the reputation of a villain. Despite this, Administrator continued his crusade and started the organization Watchtower, an anti-mutant medical research facility. The first superhuman he employed was [[:wikipedia:Deadpool (comics)|Deadpool]], a mercenary he would use to capture [[:wikipedia:Wolverine (comics)|Wolverine]], whom they needed for his powerful healing factor. Once, the Watchtower planned to use mutant bloodhounds to stop their enemies the [[:wikipedia:Skornn|Skornn]] from hatching, however, this plan was infiltrated by Wolverine and [[:wikipedia:X-Force|X-Force]]. At his final battle with Wolverine, Administrator built himself a new, high-tech suit of armor and fought until the Watchtower organization was destroyed by [[:wikipedia:Cable (comics)|Cable]] and his team. At the battle, he was killed by an alternate future version of [[:wikipedia:Domino (comics)|Domino]].

As a mutant, the Administrator has an enormous healing factor almost as powerful as Wolverine's. He is also incredibly strong and fast. He has a brilliant mind and wears a suit of power armor which allows energy projection, shape-shifting, and atomic structure altering abilities. It can also absorb the powers of other mutants.

Agony's first host was '''Leslie Gesneria''', a mercenary hired by [[Carlton Drake]]'s [[Life Foundation]] in San Francisco. Leslie bonded with the Agony symbiote in conjunction with [[Scream (comics)|Scream]] (Donna Diego), Phage (Carl Mach), Riot (Trevor Cole) and Lasher (Ramon Hernandez).

During the "Absolute Carnage" storyline, the dog-infected symbiote came across Sadie, a crying girl whose parents keep fighting.

Horrified, the kids try to escape but the Phage and Lasher symbiotes bonds to Billy and Sadie. The family then decide to go to New York and help Carnage's quest.<ref>''Absolute Carnage: Separation Anxiety'' #1. Marvel Comics</ref>

}}
'''Analyzer''' is a [[:wikipedia:fictional character|fictional character]] in the [[:wikipedia:Marvel Universe|Marvel Universe]]. Created by [[:wikipedia:Stan Lee|Stan Lee]] and [[:wikipedia:Jack Kirby|Jack Kirby]], it first appeared in ''[[:wikipedia:Thor (Marvel Comics)|Thor]]'' #132.

The Analyzer began its existence as one of the [[:wikipedia:Rigellians (Marvel Comics)|Rigellian]] [[:wikipedia:Recorder (comics)|Recorders]], specifically Recorder #211, property of the Colonizers of Rigel. It was built by Rigellian scientists on the planet Rigel-3, and its original primary purpose was to gather and analyze information on planetary environments and their inhabitants.

Recorder #211 was assigned to accompany [[:wikipedia:Thor (Marvel Comics)|Thor]] to the [[:wikipedia:Black Galaxy|Black Galaxy]] in Thor's mission to battle [[:wikipedia:Ego the Living Planet|Ego the Living Planet]], where he was rescued by Thor and for the first time a Recorder felt gratitude. This Recorder performed so well, gathering an unprecedented amount of rare data, that the Rigellian Grand Commissioner permitted it to retain its memories of its experiences rather than having it undergo the customary erasing that follows the discharging of its data.<ref>''Thor'' #132-134</ref>

The Recorder again accompanied Thor during the war between Ego and [[:wikipedia:Galactus|Galactus]], which ended in Thor helping defeat Galactus.<ref>''Thor'' #160-162</ref> It also recorded one of [[:wikipedia:Adam Warlock|Adam Warlock]]'s exploits on [[:wikipedia:Counter-Earth (comics)#The High Evolutionary Counter-Earth|Counter-Earth]].<ref>''Warlock'' #8</ref> It again accompanied Thor during Thor's quest in outer space to find [[:wikipedia:Odin (Marvel Comics)|Odin]], as well as his return to [[:wikipedia:Asgard (comics)|Asgard]].<ref>''Thor'' #256-267</ref> It also observed [[:wikipedia:Iron Man|Iron Man]]'s encounter with Rigellians,<ref>''Iron Man'' #112</ref> and with [[:wikipedia:Uatu|Uatu]] the Watcher, observed the suicide of [[:wikipedia:Phoenix (comics)|Phoenix]] on Earth's moon.<ref>''Uncanny X-Men'' #137</ref>

The Rigellians again sent the Recorder to the Black Galaxy to witness the detonation of the null-bomb, where it was reunited with Thor. The Recorder's body was destroyed from the waist down, but it was repaired by the [[:wikipedia:Celestial (comics)|Celestials]]. The Recorder witnessed Thor's rescue of [[:wikipedia:Hercules (Marvel Comics)|Hercules]] and the [[:wikipedia:High Evolutionary|High Evolutionary]].<ref>''Thor'' #407</ref> The Recorder was once more sent to the Black Galaxy by the Rigellians, but this time it was captured there and stolen by the High Evolutionary.<ref>''Thor'' #419</ref>

The High Evolutionary reprogrammed and reconstructed Recorder #211 as the '''Analyzer'''. It met with Thor and Hercules again, and witnessed the birth of a new Celestial in the Black Galaxy. The Analyzer suffered an informational overload and shut himself down, though Count Tagar of the [[:wikipedia:New Men (Marvel Comics)#Members|Knights of Wundagore]] vowed to restore him to his original form and programming.<ref>''Thor'' #422-425</ref>

As Recorder #211, it was a typical model of its type. The android was crafted with a humanoid form which was designed with the primary purpose of collecting data in mind. Its computer processing system filled its entire chest cavity.

When modified to become the Analyzer, the upper half of its body is still humanoid, but the lower half consists of a rectangular mobile computer console which contains additional computer networks. The Analyzer is equipped with an enormous array of advanced, miniaturized sensor systems known as "sensitizers" and "derma-circuits," which are primarily located in its head.

The Analyzer can levitate itself and fly due to its anti-gravity devices.

She tends to shoot a lot of inanimate objects when people misbehave. Her sidekicks don't escape, a whap on the head for stepping out of line is not unexpected.

==Atom-Smasher==
{{For|the DC comics character sometimes called Atom Smasher|Albert Rothstein}}

'''Atom-Smasher''' is a name shared by three fictional characters in the Marvel Universe. Atom-Smasher generated atomic radiation, which he could project as heat, concussive force, or hard radiation. His energies enhanced his durability and he could also transform into pure energy, though even this form could be contained with lead, graphite, or other radiation dampeners.

===Ronald English===
The first Atom-Smasher first appeared in ''[[:wikipedia:Bill Foster (comics)|Black Goliath]]'' #1 (February 1976) and was created by [[:wikipedia:Tony Isabella|Tony Isabella]] and [[:wikipedia:George Tuska|George Tuska]].

The character subsequently appears in ''Black Goliath'' #2-3 (April–June 1976), in which he is killed. The character appears posthumously in ''[[:wikipedia:Marvel Two-in-One|Marvel Two-in-One]]'' #55 (September 1979), and ''[[:wikipedia:Marvel Fanfare|Marvel Fanfare]]'' #3 (July 1982).<ref>''Marvel Two-in-One''#55</ref><ref>''Marvel Fanfare'' #3</ref>

Ronald English used a Nucleonic Radiator to become the super-villain Atom-Smasher, and was capable of transforming his body into pure energy. He fought [[:wikipedia:Bill Foster (comics)|Black Goliath]], but was killed by [[:wikipedia:Warhawk (Marvel Comics)|Warhawk]].{{Issue|date=February 2011}}

===Michael English===
The second Atom-Smasher appeared in ''Marvel Two-in-One'' #85 (March 1982) and was created by [[:wikipedia:Tom DeFalco|Tom DeFalco]] and [[:wikipedia:Ron Wilson (comics)|Ron Wilson]].

The character appears posthumously in ''Marvel Fanfare'' #3 (July 1982).

Michael English was the brother of the original Atom-Smasher, also capable of transforming his body into pure energy. He was killed in an explosion during a battle with [[:wikipedia:Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew)|Spider-Woman]].{{Issue|date=February 2011}}

===Kevin Leonardo===
The third Atom-Smasher appeared in ''[[:wikipedia:Iron Man|Iron Man]]'' #287 (December 1992) and was created by Len Kaminski and Kevin Hopgood. He was given a real name in ''Iron Manual 3'' (2009).

Kevin Leonardo was an employee of [[:wikipedia:Stane International|Stane International]]'s nuclear production plant in Southern California. He learns that old radioactive by-products of the plant that were left to accumulate are seeping into groundwater. He complains to his superiors, but is shot, dumped into a toxic waste canister, and thrown out to sea. He is reborn with radioactive power and seeks revenge. Atom-Smasher plans to blow up the plant and is confronted by [[:wikipedia:War Machine|Iron Man]]. After he defeats Iron Man, the government sends [[:wikipedia:Firepower (comics)|Firepower]], a government agent, to stop him. Firepower and Iron Man fight Atom-Smasher, but when Iron Man learns Atom-Smasher's history, he offers to shut down all of Stark's nuclear industry holdings in exchange for Atom-Smasher not destroying the plant. He then distracts Firepower with an EMP wave so that Atom-Smasher could get away, even though it immobilized him. Impressed with Iron Man's show of trust, Atom-Smasher leaves in peace.<ref>''Iron Man'' #287-288 (December 1993 - January 1994)</ref>

Within the context of the stories, Atum is the son of the entity known as the [[:wikipedia:Demiurge (comics)|Demiurge]] and the [[:wikipedia:Elder Gods (Marvel Comics)|Elder God]] [[:wikipedia:Gaea (Marvel Comics)|Gaea]]. A golden humanoid imbued with the power of the Sun itself, Atum kills the warring Elder Gods and, absorbing their life force, is changed by their evil energies and devolves into a huge, hulking demonic being - Demogorge, the God Eater. Only [[:wikipedia:Chthon (Marvel Comics)|Chthon]] and [[:wikipedia:Father Set|Set]] survive by fleeing into alternate dimensions. With Gaea the only Elder God remaining, the God Eater sheds the Elder Gods' energies and becomes Atum, journeying to the Sun and hibernating there.<ref>''Seen in flashback in'' ''Thor'' Annual #10 (1982)</ref> During this long period of hibernation, Atum takes on the identity of Ammon-Ra, and forms the [[:wikipedia:Heliopolitans (comics)|Ogdoad]], the primordial gods of ancient Egypt.<ref>''Thor/Hercules: Encyclopedia Mythologica'' (2009)</ref>

Thousands of years later, a group of eight Death Gods from various pantheons (including [[:wikipedia:Hela (comics)|Hela]]; Pluto; [[:wikipedia:Seth (Marvel Comics)|Seth]] and non-Death God [[:wikipedia:Mephisto (comics)|Mephisto]]) combine their mystical might to join all the Hells into one vast dimension. This act forces the reemergence and intervention of the Demogorge, who consumed all but the fleeing Hela. A champion from each pantheon is sent to stop Demogorge and prevent further disaster. Led by [[:wikipedia:Thor (Marvel Comics)|Thor]], the champions find the God Eater and battle it. Demogorge is defeated by Thor, who plunges into one of its orifices and attacks the God Eater's inner workings. Damaged beyond repair, the entity can no longer contain the energies it has consumed and releases all the previously consumed gods, and restores the Hells to their rightful dimensions.<ref>''Thor'' Annual #10 (1982)</ref>

During the ''[[:wikipedia:Secret Invasion|Secret Invasion]]'' storyline, the alien [[:wikipedia:W:C:marvel:Skrulls|Skrulls]] invade Earth at the behest of their deities, ''Kly'bn'' and ''Sl'gur't''. A [[:wikipedia:God Squad (comics)|cadre of gods]] consisting of [[:wikipedia:Hercules (Marvel Comics)|Hercules]], [[:wikipedia:Snowbird (comics)|Snowbird]], [[:wikipedia:Amatsu-Mikaboshi (comics)|Amatsu-Mikaboshi]] and [[:wikipedia:Ajak|Ajak]] is formed to combat the Skrull gods, with Atum joining the Earthly pantheon at the request of [[:wikipedia:Horus (Marvel Comics)|Horus]]. He compares himself to a shepherd defending his flock, which he will one day eat.<ref>''Incredible Hercules'' #117 (May 2008)</ref> During the confrontation, Atum is killed after trying to devour Sl'gur't, who tears him apart from the inside.<ref>''Incredible Hercules'' #120 (Aug. 2008)</ref>

Later, after Thor is slain battling the evil Serpent,<ref>Fear Itself #7</ref> his divine soul travels to an afterlife for gods, where he joins many other deities who appear to have died and are all on their way to be devoured by Demogorge; apparently a being such as he can never truly be destroyed.<ref>Mighty Thor v.4 #8</ref> Nevertheless, Thor defeats him by smashing his heart after entering his body, and escapes him once again.
