Diane Davids, also known as Ogress (first appeared in Incredible Hulk #345) was a lawyer and a resident of Middletown, an isolated town in the middle of a dessert. She got so frustrated with defending criminals, that she once destroyed her client's briefcase and was held in contempt of court. It was the kind of town that no one would miss, which is probably why the Hulk 's old enemy Leader decided to expose it to gamma radiation. He hoped some of its inhabitants would survive and join him in his new kingdom of Freehold. Diane was one of only five people to survive a gamma explosion and develop superhuman powers. Diane became Ogress and joined the other four people into forming the Riot Squad. Together, they protected The Leader's Freehold base at the time when Leader had contacted a terminal illness.They first clashed with the Hulk when Leader promised to provide him with the information on where Betty Ross was located in exchange for the Hulk killing Madman. Ogress was present with the Riot Squad when HYDRA invades Leader's base. The resulting conflict caused the death of Soul Man(who was in the middle of reviving Marlo Chandler). Ogress and Hotshot fought Hulk at the time when Omnibus planned to cause destruction throughout the world and were defeated.Ogress and Hotshot stormed Omnibus's lair and accused him of being behind the Alliance before taking him away.Ogress and the rest of the Riot Squad worked with the Avengers to shot down the remaining bombs.
