Pod

Pod is the superhero name of the character known as Aikku Jokinen. She’s a Norwegian character with Finnish parents and “Aikku” is a Finnish nickname, so her real name is actually unknown, but she’s very cool.

She gained her powers when she was bonded to a suit of armour when she found herself near the crash-landing site of a device created by the aforementioned Ex Nihilo.

Having initially turned into a cocoon, she emerged from said cocoon in her new form and defeated the Avengers – adapting to their attacks thanks to the armour she had bonded with. But she would later join the New Avengers thanks to Sunspot. She has also been a member of the Avengers Idea Mechanics team. She first became affiliated with the Avengers in Avengers (vol. 5) #39 in 2015.
