History[]

As Harley Keener[]

Harley Keener/Nathaniel Richards III was born in 2001 to Cassandra Keener and Nathaniel Richards II, a descendant of Reed Richards aka Mister Fantastic. His father left the family when he was five. In December 2012, he helped Tony Stark rebuild his Iron Man armor. After Tony "defeated" the Mandarin a year later, Harley began building more and more sophisticated machines including a prototype flying seat. In 2015, he learned that his father Nathaniel died shortly after leaving home nine years prior. Harley supported Tony Stark during the Avengers' Civil War.

After the Decimation following Thanos' snap, his mother and sister Tara disappeared into dust, leaving him alone. He contacted Tony Stark for the first time in two years, but he was unavailable. For five years, he locked himself in his garage to create something that would allow them to return, but he failed each attempt. One day, he managed to open a portal and a man in green and purple armor comes out, but he was wounded. Harley looked after him, and the man stayed for a few days and gave him advice for his machines. Before leaving, the man told him that he would become someone powerful and respected. In 2023, he attended Tony's burial.
