History

Early Life[]

In his early life, Professor Cartwright was a gifted teenager; however he despised his skinny physique, to the extent that he was even willing to trade his intellect for a physique like Captain America.

Silent War[]

Professor Cartwright was later seen in his senior-years, as the head scientist who was tasked with forcing Lord Gorgon to undergo Secondary-Terrigenesis, thus resulting in Gorgon's more animalistic appearance, and the breaking of the ventilation chamber, leading to Cartwright's exposure to Terrigenesis and his extremely muscular physique.

Professor Cartwright began to formulate theories on the alteration of humans following Terrigenesis, whilst his body began to decay from his own exposure. He later returned the Terrigen Crystals to the Inhumans when they attacked the Pentagon, proclaiming the Crystals as cursed things. Cartwright then succumbed to the decay of his body.
