Hyperion is a fictional character that appears in publications published by Marvel Comics. The character debuted in ''The Avengers'' #69 (Oct. 1969), with seven notable versions to date - three supervillains belonging to the team Squadron Sinister and another villain with greater power levels than all of the others and two heroes from alternate universes, and a zombified clone. ==Publication history== ===Squadron Sinister (Earth-616)=== The first Hyperion in Marvel Comics debuted in the title the ''Avengers''.〔''Avengers'' #69 (Oct. 1969)〕 This story arc introduced the supervillain team the Squadron Sinister, whose members were loosely based on heroes in DC Comics' Justice League of America, with Hyperion based on Superman.〔Interview with Roy Thomas and Jerry Bails in ''The Justice League Companion'' (2003) pp. 72–73〕 The Squadron Sinister are assembled by the cosmic entity the Grandmaster to battle the champions of the time-traveling Kang - the superhero team the Avengers. The Avengers defeat the Squadron and thwart the Grandmaster, with the Thunder God Thor miniaturizing Hyperion and trapping him in a glass sphere.〔''Avengers'' #69 - 71 (Oct. - Dec. 1969)〕 The Squadron reappear in the title Defenders, reunited by the alien Nebulon. The villains receive greater power in exchange for the planet Earth, and create a giant laser cannon in the Arctic to melt the polar ice caps, thereby covering the entirety of the Earth's surface in water. The superhero team the Defenders prevent the scheme and defeat the villains (and Nebulon), with the Hulk overpowering Hyperion.〔''Defenders'' #13 - 14 (May - July 1974)〕 After this defeat Hyperion and his two remaining team mates are teleported off world by Nebulon, and later return to Earth. Acquiring an energy-draining weapon, the villains plan to threaten the Earth once again but are defeated by the Defenders and the Avenger Yellowjacket.〔''Giant-Size Defenders'' #4 (1974)〕 Hyperion has another brief encounter with several members of the Avengers, who seek a way to separate the Power Prism of Doctor Spectrum from fellow Avenger the Wasp.〔''Avengers'' Annual #8 (1978)〕 The character battles Thor once again and encounters the Earth-712 version of Hyperion from the Squadron Supreme.〔''Thor'' #280 (Feb. 1979)〕 Hyperion is also involved with the warrior woman Thundra, with the relationship ending when she discovers a means of returning to her own dimension.〔''Marvel Two-In-One'' #67 (Sep. 1980)〕 In the Earth-712 universe Hyperion is told by the villain Master Menace that he is an inorganic duplicate created by the Grandmaster modeled on the Hyperion from that universe. A bitter Hyperion then impersonates the Squadron Supreme's version of Hyperion for several weeks before dying in battle against the original.〔''Squadron Supreme'' #8 (Apr. 1986)〕 The Grandmaster briefly resurrects the character as part of the Legion of the Unliving, a group created to combat the Avengers.〔''Avengers'' Annual #16 (Dec. 1987)〕 A new Hyperion is made when the Grandmaster later reappears and reforms the Squadron Sinister. Hyperion is joined by a new Doctor Spectrum (Alice Nugent, former lab assistant of Henry Pym); the Whizzer (now called Speed Demon) and Nighthawk. This Hyperion originated from the Microverse, like the original Sinister Hyperion claimed before learning his origins were a lie. Courtesy of a phenomenon known as the Wellspring of Power - an interdimensional source of superhuman abilities - the Grandmaster increases the Squadron Sinister's powers and they battle the New Thunderbolts. Thunderbolts team leader Baron Zemo defeats the Grandmaster, and in the ensuing chaos Hyperion and the members of the Squadron Sinister scatter and escape.〔''New Thunderbolts'' #15 - 16 (Jan. - Feb. 2006); ''Thunderbolts'' #102 - 108 (July 2006 - Jan. 2007)〕 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「Hyperion (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
