After defeating Abomination, Evenson built a Soul Engine-powered car and tried to summon powerful demons. The spell freed Aurelles and Saloras from the Dark Harvest Council, but the twins remained suspicious of Evenson’s claim to serve the Legion.

• Evenson and Hulk defeated Abomination, and Evenson extracted his soul before negotiating with Ross for the corpse.
• Nick Fury and Pierce learned that Ross had transformed Franski into Abomination, then ordered the corpse destroyed and banned experiments on the other Super Soldier bodies.

Evenson bound the Eredar Twins to a pact, concealed their motives, and brought them into his plans for Umbrella Corporation. As he worked with S.H.I.E.L.D. around Tony Stark and Justin Hammer, the twins settled into Earth and Sarah advanced a creature-enhancement project for Hammer.

• Evenson’s plan to enlist the Twins left them as Umbrella co-owners under a contract, while Ivan continued building Iron Soldiers and charged at Sarah after she introduced herself as Jill Valentine.

Sarah used Ivan Vanko’s revenge plot to secure Umbrella Corporation’s plans and funds, while Aurelles and Saloras recruited General Ross to support the Gospel Project. Evenson grew closer to Klayya, then told Nick Fury that the hammer found in New Mexico was Mjolnir, Thor’s weapon.

• Sarah defeated Ivan, secured his agreement to provide Whiplash blueprints and company funds, and gave him Umbrella Corporation’s neural-link manuscript to develop before the Stark Industries Expo.

• Evenson recognized Loki’s influence over Coulson and Silvett, and Melinda knocked them unconscious so they could recover from the mind control.
• Evenson met Thor at Jane Fox’s home and convinced him that Odin was alive and Loki had deceived him, then persuaded him to come to the S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
