History:  (Avengers I#276) - Following the Masters of Evil's takeover of Avengers Mansion, the U. S. military was called in to help destroy the Darkforce barrier surrounding the Mansion. Ant-Man and Wasp escaped the takeover and spoke with Col. Jordan, who agreed to allow the Avengers to handle the situation first. The Wasp and Ant-Man soon managed to send out a message to Thor and Captain Marvel soon returned to help as well. As the Avengers began to take back the Mansion, Col. Jordan and other military men began to notice as the Darkforce cube surrounding the Mansion started to fade.
