Taking on the mantle of the Sphinx, she ruled a world where Egypt grew to be the dominant nation in an effort to win back her love, the original Sphinx however, this reality was unraveled after Sayge, the embodiment of truth, revealed to Nova how Meryet had manipulated history. Using its reality-altering properties, she was able to re-shape history. Soon after, Meryet Karim found the legendary Ka Stone. It was later discovered that a Skrull, Lyja, had been impersonating Alicia. Her father, the Puppet Master, knew something was wrong with her. The Warriors also fought the Fantastic Four when Marvel Boy, who was under the Puppet Master's control, kidnapped Alicia Masters. The team also survived a confrontation with the White Queen and her Hellions in an effort to take Firestar back. In the interim, the Warriors continued to work together, foiling Star Thief, Force of Nature, the Bengal, and others from causing harm. Meryet Karim happened to catch one of these broadcasts, and recognized Nova, which prompted her to step up the time table on her plans. However, the battle had garnered the attention of the news media, who televised the Warriors' departure from Genetech's facility. With the late arrival of Speedball, the Warriors were able to over-power the company's rogue super-team. The Warriors traced the Thinker's intrusive research back to Genetech but were summarily contained by Psionex, who then took the opportunity to turn on Genetech. While preserving their secret identities, the Thinker did hand over the data he had collected, which resulted in the creation of Psionex, a quintet of super-humans who were under close observation by the scientists of Genetech. The company hired the Mad Thinker to research the new group of heroes to assist them in creating their own super-hero team. The team's debut, and their subsequent battle with the Juggernaut, solicited the interest of Genetech, a superhuman research facility in Long Island. Their first battle was against a reformed Terrax. Nova was a former Champion of Xandar whose powers were reactivated by Taylor throwing him off the roof of a tall building, Marvel Boy was the present-day version of Vance Astro of the Guardians of the Galaxy, Firestar was a former member of the Hellions, Namorita was Prince Namor's cousin, and Speedball was a teenager from Springdale, Connecticut who had been involved in an accident at a laboratory. When he had finally reached a plateau in which he felt he could begin the "fight," he organized a team of teenage superheroes. In order to do so, he trained under the auspices of his guardians Tai and Chord, who maintained the multinational Taylor Foundation, set up by Dwayne's father before he died. Dwayne Taylor's parents were murdered when he was a child, and so he swore vengeance on all criminals.
