Griffin.

John "Johnny" Horton was a researcher who genetically attached lion paws on his hands, along with other attributes. He was later imprisoned in the Fridge, but was broken out by John Garrett and Grant Ward. Although imprisoned during the years, his body began to change more and more as he pushed his body to the limit. The climax of his transformation occurred when SHIELD agent Yo Yo Rodriguez was assigned to track him down and capture him. In the battle, she accidentally had her Inhuman DNA injected into his body, which turned him into an Inhuman himself by the name of the Griffin. Drunk off of the power of the Inhumans granted to him, Griffin will stop at nothing until he finds Slingshot and drains her completely of all her DNA so that he may achieve his ultimate mutation.
