Orb (Drake Shannon)
- Main Article: Drake Shannon
Drake Shannon was a male human who by adulthood came to be a stunt driver and partner to Crash Simpson. One day, he was horribly maimed after a motorcycle accident. Following Simpson's accident, he tried to forcibly take ownership of the motorcycle show they had created together, but was defeated by the efforts of both Spider-Man and Ghost Rider. (Marvel Team-Up v1 #15)
Orb (Agent of Zadkiel)
- Main Article: Zadkiel's Agent
An unknown individual came to claim the identity of the original Orb where this person's head turned into a giant eyeball. After performing a number of unidentified mercenary jobs, the Orb entered a period of inactivity. Hired to take down Caretaker alongside Blackout, Doghead and Death Ninja, the Orb relished the opportunity for action. Led to Caretaker's house in Tennessee's Great Smoky Mountains, the Orb followed the others up to the house, with Doghead checking for traps. Aware of his visitors, Caretaker burst through the front door, blowing off Doghead's head with his Hellfire rifle and warning the others to leave. Firing on his target with his Repulsor Ray, the Orb forced Caretaker to draw back into the house. The Orb apprehensively followed with Death Ninja, noting the supposedly small house's impossibly expansive interiors. Entering a room stocked with Ghost Rider and motorcycling paraphernalia, the Orb triggered a trap, launching a wooden plank lined with nails into his "eye". The Orb recoiled in pain, unable to stop Caretaker from killing Death Ninja. (Ghost Rider v6 #26)
