History
Arkady Rossovich (Russian: Аркадий Россович), also known as Omega Red is mutant with a hatred for humans who volunteered for experimental procedures while in prison in his native Russia. He at some point became a hired thug and was hired to attack a cargo boat belonging to Roxxon Industries in a conspiracy against the head of the company, Donald Roxxon. After his fight with Spider-Man at Roxxon industries he was captured by SHIELD[1] but escaped when the Green Goblin caused a mass prison break.[2]
When Spider-Man defeated him his clients stopped going to him. He blamed the Daily Bugle because of the article that was written by J. Jonah Jameson of how he was humiliated. Omega Red went to the Daily Bugle disguised as a janitor and confronted Jameson. However Peter Parker was also presently working at the Bugle, and as Spider-Man, defeated Omega Red after the two caused major damages in the Bugle office.[3]
After the death of Peter Parker, Omega Red faced the new Spider-Man while attacking a fabric at Long Island. After a short battle, he was defeated when Spider-Man used his Venom Blast to knock him out.[4]Attributes
