This article turn back spoilers forForce Works 2020#3 .
Agents of SHIELD ’s Quake has the hot trick shot going- touch off a volcanic bam for defeat an enemy . On the modest - screen , Quake has been cover as one of the most powerful superheroes on the satellite . Her Inhuman superpower allow her to bring forth powerful vibrational waves of vigour , and she actually threaten the entire earth whenher abilities were amplified by a version of the Extremis serum . In one ( thankfully deflect ) timeline , Quake cracked the entire world like an orchis .
The comics , too , have generally treated Quake with respect . She successfully take down Wolverine when she made her debut , using her powers tocause his heart to explode within his pectus . Since then , while Quake has usually been a lowly character , she ’s proved herself to be a power player as well as a competent SHIELD team drawing card . All thing considered , this is not a hero you require to get on the wrong side of .

This week’sForce Works 2020#3 illustrate her vast powers . TheForce work teamhas been assigned to the island of Lingares , seaward South America , but in truth they soon realized they were dealing with an Avengers - scale scourge ; Ultimo , a robot designed to destroy intact man . InForce Works2020#3 , matters escalate whenMODOKsuccessfully merges himself with Ultimo , and train to wreak mayhem on a scale even he ’s never dreamed of before . temblor is formally told to ruin the entire island , sacrificing its thou of inhabitants so as to save millions of life . She accept a different approach , irritating MODOK and take out him away from innocents , and then tearing the ground apart beneath his elephantine feet . This exposes an active lava lake concealed beneath the surface , and MODOK - still new to this powerful new organic structure - is unable to pull himself destitute . Instead , he plunges into the lava lake , destroyed by its searing temperatures .
Matthew Rosenberg’sForce Works 2020clearly considers temblor one of the most powerful superheroes on the planet , and he ’s indicated just how powerful her attainment could be . It ’s good to assume the fictional island of Lingares is volcanic , perhaps associated with the Lesser Antilles chain in the Caribbean . In such an surroundings , Quake ’s powers are clearly a phenomenal plus . Presumably , she considered destroying the island by taking reward of Lingares ' volcanic nature , triggering an volatile eructation , but alternatively took a different approach . Note Quake ’s high degree of situational awareness , given that lava lake seems to have been part of her plan , rather than just a convenient coincidence .
Quake ’s vibrational powers have always been dangerous - she lean to blast them out in devastating waves of vigour - but Rosenberg has shown her taking full reward of the ground beneath her feet . It ’s fascinating to imagine just how grievous Quake could be if she ever truly decide to foreshorten loose ; the power to trigger volatile eruptions , to level intact islands , or to use lava lake as a weapon is quite an impressive telephone extension of her powerset . Hopefully , Marvel will soon give thisAgents of SHIELDstar the chance to show more of her growing ability .
