Andromeda Attumasen is a fictional character that appears in various comic book series published by Marvel Comics. The character is a member of Homo mermanus, the race that occupies the Atlantis of Marvel's shared universe, known as the Marvel Universe. ==Fictional character biography== A member of the Homo mermanus race, Andromeda is the illegitimate daughter of Attuma of Atlantis by a woman named Lady Gelva. He did not know of her existence until she confronted him and told him he was her father.〔''Iron Man Annual'' #10〕 Andromeda was raised in Atlantean society and trained in the arts of hunting and war and she exceeded any other male except for her father in these skills. Despite her skills, she was considered unworthy of promotion in the Atlantean military because she is a woman even though she was highly decorated.〔''Defenders'' #149〕 Andromeda, inspired by Namor's tales, moved to the surface world, where she used a serum to give herself a human appearance and the ability to breathe out of water. She took the name Andrea McPhee and posed as a surface woman.〔''Defenders'' #143〕 When she was revealed as an Atlantean, she quickly abandoned her charade and became a member of the Defenders, joining them against a villain named Hotspur.〔''Defenders'' #146-147〕 She was with the Defenders, christened the "New Defenders," for only a short time, revealing only portions of her background to them.〔''Defenders'' #149〕 With them, she traveled to outer space and battled the second Star-Thief.〔''Defenders'' #150〕 She fought Manslaughter as he menaced the team,〔''Defenders'' #151〕 and then aided the Defenders and the Interloper in battle against fellow Defender Moondragon, and the Dragon of the Moon who was possessing Moondragon. Andromeda sacrificed her life force, joining with Manslaughter, the Valkyrie, and the Interloper to drive the Dragon of the Moon from the Earth, and her body was turned to stone.〔''Defenders'' #152〕 The Dragon would later return, this time without a body. To stop the Dragon of the Moon, Doctor Strange cast a spell which returned the souls of the Defenders fallen in the battle against the Dragon to the bodies of several recently deceased humans, changing them into duplicates of the Defenders. Andromeda's soul entered the body of Genevieve Cross and these Defenders now called themselves the Dragon Circle. Together the Dragon Circle banished the Dragon from Earth and Andromeda returned to the oceans.〔''Doctor Strange'' Vol. 3 #3-4〕 Andromeda played an important part in the 1989 ''Atlantis Attacks'' crossover. Andromeda led a rebellion to stop her father Attuma from invading the surface world, but she bested by Attuma in personal combat. She was kidnapped unconscious by the Deviant priest Ghaur as one of his "Seven Brides of Set."〔''X-Factor Annual'' #4〕 Under Ghaur's domination, she accompanied She-Hulk to acquire a piece of Set's life force.〔''Avengers West Coast Annual'' #4〕 In the end the Brides of Set gained their freedom thanks to the Fantastic Four and Avengers.〔''Fantastic Four Annual'' #22〕 Andromeda joined her forces with those of Namor. She was part of the short-lived Deep Six, a group of underwater heroes.〔''Namor, the Sub-Mariner'' #58 (Jan. 1995)〕 During this time her mind and that of Genevieve Cross would repeatedly exchange control and even turn her body into a copy of Genevieve's. Andromeda sacrificed her own mind to save Namor's soul, leaving Genevieve in control of Andromeda's body.〔''Dr. Strange'' vol. 3 #3〕 Months later, either Genevieve in Andromeda's body or a restored Andromeda herself assisted Namor and the Defenders against Attuma's own Deep Six.〔''Defenders'' vol. 2, #7 (Sep. 2001)〕 Andromeda was last seen as an ally of Namor, living in Atlantis.〔''Fantastic Four'' vol 1 #588〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Andromeda (Marvel Comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
