The New Men are the result of Wyndham's first experiments in accelerated evolution. When Wyndham learns that Wundagore Mountain (on which his advanced genetics research citadel was based) is the prison of the powerful demon known as Chthon, he decides to train his creations in chivalry and battle tactics so that they can oppose Chthon should he ever return. He equips them with advanced weaponry and armor, and gives them flying "atomic steeds" on which to ride (He is assisted in this endeavor by the ghost of the 6th century magician named Magnus).

| - The New Men are the result of Wyndham's first experiments in accelerated evolution. When Wyndham learns that Wundagore Mountain (on which his advanced genetics research citadel was based) is the prison of the powerful demon known as Chthon, he decides to train his creations in chivalry and battle tactics so that they can oppose Chthon should he ever return. He equips them with advanced weaponry and armor, and gives them flying "atomic steeds" on which to ride (He is assisted in this endeavor by the ghost of the 6th century magician named Magnus). As seen in flashbacks, the New Men become an extended family to Luna Maximoff. Wyndham later converts his citadel into a spaceship, and he and most of his New Men leave to explore the stars. They eventually settle on a planet, which they name Wundagore II, with the High Evolutionary staying on the planet's moon in order to look after them. Later still, the High Evolutionary creates his Counter-Earth for his New Men, but that world is taken by the alien Beyonders.
