Portland (Earth-600043)

In Earth-600043, international terrorist General Miguel smuggled drugs for his weapon research project from Ecuador to the Portland Harbor Terminal. He then released a chemical that sped the aging of the inhabitants of Portland, and then blackmailed the government for one billion dollars for the antidote. Miguel offered a sample of the antidote and Dr. Wendy Day traveled to Portland, infecting herself, to test it. The antidote was operative, but there were not enough doses. Fortunately, Captain America defeated Miguel and obtained his supply of the antidote. He distributed it on Portland in the same way Miguel had distributed the poison: Spraying it from a plane.[3]
