Andy Maguire was an student at Midtown High, the same school Peter Parker attended, but unlike Parker, he was not a good student, who was completely ignored by everyone and his parents did not care of him too much.

One day during a demonstration at Horizon Labs, presented by Peter Parker, an accident similar to Parker's granted Andrew the ability to create a hyper-kinetic form of energy tied to the forces of the universe. After being tested by many superhero scientists, Andy became the new spokesman to Horizon Labs, while he was trained by Peter Parker's alter-ego, Spider-Man.

The following days, Alpha continued his super heroic career with the help of Spider-Man, despite having a bad reception by the citizens. After observing Alpha, the Jackal kidnapped him and his parents, in order to create clones of him and build an army to control the world. Spider-Man managed to track Alpha to the Jackal's liar, where they learned Alpha's DNA wasn't affected by the accident, leading his newly formed clones to be powerless. After failing to absorb Alpha's power, the Jackal escaped. In the aftermath, Andy emancipated from his parents.

When Alpha was called by Spider-Man to help the Avengers to battle Terminus, Alpha used his powers without care, provoking many aircraft to shut down, risking the lives of the passengers, and people on the ground. The Avengers managed to rescue everybody and Spider-Man saved his Aunt May and her husband from Jameson's malfunctioning private jet. Afterwards Peter decided that Alpha was too irresponsible to wield the powers he had. He used Terminus' energy lance's capability to deflect Alpha's energy with the intent to build an engine which took a huge portion of Andy's power, returning him to his normal life with his parents and school.

Now living in Philadelphia after his parents broke up, every week Alpha goes to Horizon Labs to be tested. After some tests Peter decides to give Alhpa back his power little by little.
