Abomination

{{char}}: = Emil Blonsky; Abomination {{height}}: = 6'8" (2.03 m) {{weight}}: = 980 llbs (444.52 kg) {{eyes}}: = Irises: Green {{hair}}: = No hair at all {{skin}}: = Green

{{origin}}: = 1. Human Gamma Mutate; A communist spy at Gamma Base, New Mexico, Blonsky activated Dr. Bruce Banner's gamma ray machine and bombarded himself with a greater dosage of gamma rays than that which mutated Banner into the Hulk. Since specific gamma ray mutation tends to be determined by variations of genetic material, Blonsky's transformation resulted in a less human-looking form than Hulk's. 2. Emil Blonsky was a communist Croatian Yugoslavian spy who infiltrated the U.S. Air Force base in New Mexico that was commanded by General "Thunderbolt" Ross and where Dr. Bruce Banner, the nuclear physicist who became the Hulk, conducted many of his experiments with gamma radiation. Blonsky made three attempts to sabotage missiles at the base that were vital to the defense of the United States. Although each attempt was narrowly thwarted, the Air Force still did not know who the saboteur was until Blonsky's transformation.

{{attributes}}: = The gamma radiation that mutated the Abomination's body fortified his cellular structure and added, from some as yet unknown source, over 800 pounds of bone marrow and tissue to his body. Unlike the Hulk's, the Abomination's transformation has proved stable; he cannot change back and forth between his human state and his superhuman state. The Abomination possesses vast superhuman strength enabling him to lift approximately 100 tons. Although the Abomination's strength surpasses that of certain classic incarnations of the Hulk, such as Mr. Fixit (Class 70) or the Green Savage Hulk (Class 90), the Abomination's strength does not fluctuate like the Hulk's. Blonsky incredible strength has allowed him to battle and defeat powerful foes and has once knocked out Doc Sasquatch with a single blow and broke one of Skaar's arm without much effort. The Abomination's great strength also extends into the highly developed and powerful muscles of his legs, enabling him to leap over two miles. The Abomination's highly advanced musculature produces vastly less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of an ordinary human. He is capable of physically exerting himself at peak capacity for several days before the build up of fatigue toxins in his blood begins to impair him. In addition to great strength, the Abomination's bodily tissues are substantially harder and more resistant to injury than the tissues of an ordinary human. The Abomination's skin is capable of withstanding great heat without blistering, great cold without freezing, and great impacts without injury. His body is also capable of withstanding tremendous impact forces, such as artillery shells and powerful energy blasts, without sustaining injury. Aside from his immense strength and durability the Abomination can also move at superhuman speed. Despite his great physical resilience, it is possible to injure him. However, he possesses an accelerated healing factor similar to that possessed by the Hulk. As a result, he is capable of regenerating great amounts of damaged or destroyed tissue with much greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human. The Abomination is also immune to all known Earthly diseases and infections. After his reconstitution by the Order of the Shield, the cloned Abomination was given the ability to generate varying levels of Gamma Radiation of an incredibly toxic variety. It is enough to overwhelm the Hulk, Captain Marvel, and Sunspot; heroes all known for absorbing energy. The Abomination's lung capacity is higher than the Hulk's, allowing him to breathe underwater for longer periods of time. Extreme pain, cold, or extended lack of oxygen can cause the Abomination to enter a coma-like state of suspended animation, in which he can survive, perhaps indefinitely. Emil Blonsky was a skilled spy prior to his transformation into the Abomination. He is also a formidable hand to hand combatant, preferring to use street fighting techniques that enable him to make full use of his great strength. Blonsky is unable to change back into human form.

{{unusual features}}: = Scaly skin, two toes on each foot, webbed pointed ears, ridged brow, massively muscled body with proportions considerably beyond those of an ordinary human.

{{notes}}: Leonard Samson believed that, due to the fact that a Gamma exposed being takes a form reflective of their inner self, that Blonsky's Abomination form is hideous and repulsive as a physical expression of his self hatred. Blonsky believes himself to be "Ugly on the inside. Unworthy of true love, affection, companionship."
