Hugo Longride

• Also known as

Hugo Longride was the sports agent who created the team, the Gladiators, and formed the Underground Mutant Theatre in Hollywood, California. He hired Alexander Flynn to recruit new members into the Gladiators. The two men had numerous disagreements which began small, but snowballed until Flynn used the Gladiators to oust Hugo from his position as leader. Siding with Flynn, the Gladiators killed Longride, but as it turns out, Longride was a Doombot, put in place by Doctor Doom to keep tabs on Flynn.
