TheElementals is a fictional organization appearing inAmerican comic books published byMarvel Comics.
A variation of the Elementals appeared in theMarvel Cinematic Universe live-action filmSpider-Man: Far From Home (2019).
The Elementals first appeared inSupernatural Thrillers #8 (August 1974), and were created byTony Isabella andVal Mayerik.
The group subsequently appears inSupernatural Thrillers #9–15 (October 1974 – October 1975) andMs. Marvel #11–12 (November–December 1977).
The Elementals are four extradimensional humanoid beings that achieved immortality and gained power over the forces of nature and ruled a kingdom on the planet Earth before the originalAtlantis rose. They are Hydron, the lord of waters; Magnum, the master of earth; Hellfire, the wielder of flame; and Zephyr, the mistress of winds. The Elementals usedN'Kantu, the Living Mummy as a pawn against theLiving Monolith to take the Ruby Scarab from them. However, Zephyr betrayed the other Elementals and allied with N'Kantu. The Elementals attacked Zephyr, the Living Mummy, and their allies and gained the Scarab from them. When the Elementals tried to release their energies through the Scarab, they were blasted off Earth.[1]
The Elementals were later returned to Earth and pursued Zephyr and the Scarab, coming into conflict with the entityHecate. Taking Zephyr hostage, Hellfire and Hydron forced her allies to recover the Scarab.Ms. Marvel arrived and together with Hecate, fought the Elementals, defeating them one by one.[2]
During the 2008–2009 "Dark Reign" storyline,Quasimodo researched the Elementals alongside other villains forNorman Osborn. He speculated that they could be aliens from the Axi-Tun or the Horusians.[3]
The Elementals were later captured by theCollector, save for Zephyr.[4]
