Abner Little (Earth-616)

Mister Little was a soldier of fortune and a member of a loose-knit society of like-minded individuals known as the Collectors. Many years ago, Mister Little allied himself with the Black Panther who aided him in a quest to find the fabled Frogs of King Solomon. One frog possessed the ability to manipulate time, while the other possessed the ability to manipulate space. When used in combination, the two relics were capable of immense power.

Mister Little's quest for the Frogs brought him into conflict with a rival collector named Princess Zanda. During a struggle with the Princess, the Frogs were activated and opened a temporal portal that brought a humanoid from six million years in the future named Hatch-22 into this reality. During the ensuing scuffle with Hatch-22, Mister Little was shot in the chest. Fortunately, he was wearing a bulletproof vest and survived the gunshot.
