History

Ami Han is the last of the Kumiho, a mystical Korean shapeshifting nine-tailed fox. Her grandmother was a Kumiho who fell in love with the man that helped her uncover her humanity. As an adult, Ami became an operative of the South Korean National Intelligence Service, both in her civilian identity and as the White Fox, one of South Korea's super-agents.[1]

Civilian identity

The White Fox started to investigate the mysterious disappearance of her fellow agent Gun-R once his body was found, eight months after he had vanished.[2] White Fox's investigation concluded that Gun-R had been snatched away to an alternate universe. Despite having past experience with other universes and pocket dimensions, she believed she would need assistance to further confirm her theory and to prevent anyone else from being abducted like Gun-R was. She sought the help of the Ultimates to this end.[3]

White Fox and the Ultimates traveled to the Grandmaster's hideout. The Grandmaster revealed that he had, in fact, forced Gun-R to compete in his latest Contest of Champions. White Fox lashed out at the Grandmaster, but he preferred to make a deal rather than fight her: if she and the Ultimates left, he would tell them who had killed Gun-R and won the Contest, as well as this individual's location. In this way, White Fox learned of the Maestro and his control over the Iso-Sphere. Miss America created a portal to Battleworld, and White Fox joined the Ultimates against the Maestro.[4]

Upon their arrival to Battleworld, they were attacked by the Symbioids, creatures that had formed from the remains of Venom and the Void. White Fox held her own against the monsters until the survivors of the Maestro's Contest of Champions escaped and joined the battle. Madame Hydra attempted to mind-control the Symbioids, but was killed by the Maestro. This led to Blue Marvel attacking the Maestro, who repelled him and sent him, along with the rest of the Ultimates and Night Thrasher, back to Earth with no memories of what had happened there. He purposely did not banish White Fox, as he wanted her as a competitor in his next Contest. White Fox joined the remaining champions and went renegade.[5]

When Maestro decided to confront the contestants directly, Outlaw managed to snatch the Iso-Sphere from him and use its power to wish for the contest to end, by banishing Maestro. As the Iso-Sphere shattered, it teleported the contestants to wherever they wanted to be. White Fox and the contestants from Earth-616 were teleported back to their native universe, and seemed interested in the idea of forming their own team to protect the world.[6]
