Although none of the villains had any personal interest in saving the planet, they were all eager to join Project: Earth’s terrorist strike force. Project: Earth gave them the chance to beat up people and destroy property for money, while appearing to be noble heroes. Their names reflect their lack of ecological consciousness: Aqueduct, Terraformer, Skybreaker—all symbolize man’s molding and destruction of elemental forces, rather than an attempt to live in harmony with nature.

When the New Warriors began investigating Project: Earth, Force of Nature was assigned to capture them. While the Force’s initial ambush was successful, this band of third-rate villains proved to be no match for the New Warriors in open battle. Project: Earth was discredit ed, and three of Force of Nature’s members were captured and turned over to the Brazilian authorities, and one—Terraformer—lost his corporeal body. But despite their defeat, Force of Nature were more successful as a group than they had been as individuals, and Project: Earth soon arranged for their release. It seems likely the world has not seen the last of them.
