Jimmy Hudson is the son of Wolverine. Wolverine fought alongside James Hudson in the Iraq war and entrusted James to take care of his newborn son. Jimmy's last name was changed from Howlett to Hudson to make the adoption official. The truth of Jimmy's origins would be kept in secret until Jimmy's high school days. Jimmy grew up not knowing that he was a mutant, but always felt different from other people. He denied the idea of being a mutant. Like Wolverine, Jimmy grew up with a taste for red haired women, lived life being reckless, and had a feral personality.
Together with the Young Ultimates, Jimmy and Jean Grey witnessed as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Triskelion fell at the hands of several heroes who hailed from a parallel universe named Earth-616, in retaliation to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s own attacks against their Earth. This clash of realities was the consequence of a phenomenon known as an incursion which ultimately caused both universes to collapse and come to an end together with their inhabitants.
In the final moments of this incursion, when both universe's Earths were in very close proximity, Jimmy and a group of mutants, namely Quicksilver, Mach Two, Guardian and Armor, fell from their reality into Earth-616. When the Multiverse was eventually rebuilt, Jimmy and these mutants became stranded in the Prime Earth, suffering from amnesia as a by-product of their transition from one reality to another.
Following a brief confrontation against the X-Men and Jimmy, during which Marvel Girl learned of Miss Sinister's involvement, the New Marauders were ordered by their superior to leave. In the wake of the Marauder's departure, the young X-Men offered Jimmy a place on their team, and he agreed.
When the Poison Hive invaded Earth, they started forcing Symbiotes to bond with various superhumans so they could subsequently assimilate them. When the X-Men assisted the fight against the Hive in Manhattan, Jimmy was bonded to a symbiote. He continued fighting, and assisted in the defense of Alchemax Tower when the Hive assaulted the building in the search for Agent Anti-Venom. Jimmy held the line against the Poisons so the mutant students at the facility could flee, and was consumed by a Poison.
The Poison created from Jimmy's assimilation was one of the few that wasn't killed by the psychic backlash caused by the Poison Queen's death at the hands of Marvel Girl. Believing itself to be the last surviving member of the Hive, it dubbed itself "Poison" and started wandering the world in Jimmy's human form; the Poison's consciousness and Jimmy's fighting for control over their body. Poison was eventually confronted by Jimmy's former teammates as they hoped to bring their fallen friend back, but their altercation was interrupted by Daken, who had been sent by Magneto to kill Poison if the Blue Team couldn't bring themselves to do so. Poison attempted to flee before being forced into a fight by Daken, but their battle was interrupted by the Blue Team. Sensing that Poison contained Jimmy's consciousness alongside that of the alien, Marvel Girl confided in Poison about her own experiences during the time she had been consumed by the Hive, letting it leave to give it the time and space it needed to figure out the duality between the mutant and the alien.
