Though the twins were believed to had been killed, they had been returned back to life with them attributing this to the actions of their father. They opened up Club Fenris in New York that was an establishment for supervillains to enter. The Hood and his incarnation of the Illuminati arrived at the establishment in order to use Dr. Karvers research in producing an artificial Bifrost bridge. He refused leading to the Black Ant entering his body whereupon he returned to normal size thus killing him. This broke one of the policies of the Club leading to Fenris offering a reward to anyone that killed the Hood along with his gang. (Illuminati v1 #2)
