Eventually, Hive possessed Grant Ward's dead body, after he was killed by Phil Coulson with his prosthetic hand on Maveth, and was free on Earth once more. Hive was one of the first humans the Kree turned into an Inhuman by combining their own Kree DNA with human DNA. The Kree created Hive to lead their Inhuman army against their enemies, but instead Hive led the Inhumans in a revolt against their creators and forced the Kree off Earth. However, over time, the other Inhumans began to fear Hive and thus banded together with regular humans to force Hive through the Monolith portal to Maveth. Hive was able to survive on Maveth for thousands of years because the Hydra cult that worshiped him made offerings by sending people through the Monolith to Maveth. As long as Hive had a body to inhabit then he would never die.

On their way to the portal, "Will" and Fitz passed the ruins of an abandoned city. As they continued onward, Fitz asked "Will" what he knows about the ancient city, and It explained that the planet was home to nine cities occupied by a race of advanced beings that destroyed each other in war. Fitz tried to bandage up It's injured leg, but was shocked to find most of the flesh rotted away to the bone. As realization set in, It explained to Fitz that it is not really Will Daniels, as It killed Daniels during Jemma's escape from the planet.
Hive was killed by the joint efforts of Lincoln and Daisy and, somewhat ironically, himself. Hive used Dr Radcliffe to create a formula to turn normal humans into Primitive Inhumans already under Hive's control, and placed that formula in a warhead, intending to turn "a significant portion of humanity" into these Primitives. Daisy strapped the warhead to the floor of a Quinjet and set the autopilot for outer space, then Lincoln arrived, shorted the manual controls, blasted Daisy out of the Quinjet just as its loading ramp closed and sacrificed himself to save Daisy and the world. Lincoln and Hive both knew that the Quinjet would detonate in outer space, so they had a legitimate talk behind each others motives and reached an understanding between each other before the warhead detonated.
Hive
- Hive
- Origin : Earth
- Version : Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
- Original name : Alveus
- Type : Parasitic Inhuman
- Height :
- Weight :
- Appearances : Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
- Possession : Hive has the ability to possess dead corpses, and reanimate them as hosts. Hive dwelled on Maveth for centuries, killing and possessing anyone who arrived there in order to preserve himself.
- Memory Absorption : Whenever he possesses a host, he gains their memories, and technically becomes them, all while as himself.
- Longevity : Due to him possessing multiple host bodies, with each new host body, he can extend his lifespan.
- Atmokinesis : He also seems to be able to manipulate the weather on the alien planet Maveth or at least thrive in sandstorms. Hive is capable of manipulating the terrain around him however he wishes. On Maveth, when Jemma Simmons and Will Daniels were about to reach a wormhole, Hive widened a canyon with his powers.
- Superhuman Strength : He was capable of going toe-to-toe with Kree reapers, eventually overpowering them.
- Healing Factor/Regeneration : After regaining his full power, he regained the ability to regenerate passively, without the need of his parasites for physical restoration. He managed to regenerate from the Lash's energy blast to the chest and multiple ballistic wounds at a rapid pace, without even scarring
- Superhuman Stamina : He has an enormous amount of endurance, being able to fight with physical injuries caused by Sky's shockwaves and Lash's energy blasts with relative difficulty.
- Parasite Manipulation : Hive's body is composed of numerous parasites that he can infest people with. They are capable of eating their host alive, cell-by-cell, and transferring the nutrients back to his body to heal himself. The parasites seem to actually "be" himself.
- Mind Control : With these same parasites, he can also control other Inhumans. Any Inhuman infected by Hive are still themselves, but act under Hive's influence.
- Restoration : He would use the parasites to restore any physical damages done to his body. After he regained his full power, he regained his healing factor, thereby no longer needing his parasites for physical restoration.
- Enhanced Mental Processing : Hive may be capable of "split-perception"; that is, he can process information from many different sources at a time.
- Paralysis Immunity : Hive also demonstrated an immunity to Lucio's paralysis ability, although the exact mechanism was not made clear.
- He stepped out from behind a hazy silhouette, as if he had left behind a layer of parasites, so it is possible that since Hive is a composite entity, Lucio's ability only affected the first layer of parasites.
- Superhuman Smell : He was able to sense blood and locate Skye hidden in the Quinjet.
- Metamorphosis : While possessing a host body, Hive could bio-morph into his true form, a purplish-skinned creature with a tentacle-like head.
