History
Hungry Charlie was a homeless man who lived on the Bowery. When he met Namor, he asked him if he knew Sunshine Mary and Charlie said that everyone knew her and would have taken him to her, but instead he led to an ambush carried out by other homeless people thinking that he was one of those who were making the members of the Bowery community disappear. The Sub-Mariner made easy play of the homeless and learned of the kidnappings, including that of Sunshine Mary. After learning where the homeless were being taken, The Sub-Mariner had himself taken to that place accompanied by Hungry Charlie and the entire Bowery community. The location was a secret A.I.M. laboratory and the homeless were used as guinea pigs to experiment with the Virus X created by MODOK. Among the guinea pigs there was also a captured Thing who freed himself and together with the Sub-Mariner faced the A.I.M. androids, while Hungry Charlie and the other homeless faced the A.I.M. members and they freed their friends.[1]
