History
Marlene Blackgar's mutant powers surfaced at birth, and she turned her mother to stone. Marlene's father, Dr. Miles Blackgar, performed gruesome experiments on living specimens and had Castle Russoff shipped stone by stone from Transia to gain access to the Darkhold, all in the name of ridding Marlene of her powers.
Marlene grew to hate her father and was happy when Castle Russoff's heir, Jacob Russoff, the Werewolf, crippled her father. Refusing his offer to help her, he turned the Werewolf and all her father's creations into stone.[1]
Marlene later reconciled with her now wheelchair-bound father and the two conspired to steal back the Darkhold from Werewolf. They met their end when they looked into a mirror at Jack's house, Marlene's powers turning them both to stone. Both Miles and Marlene were recovered by Buck Cowan, and exposed as statues at the Santa Monica Art Museum.[2]Attributes
