Surely you weren’t the only one who, when Marvel Rivals came out just a few weeks ago, when analyzing the playable heroes and villains of the title, you noticed a tender and powerful land shark named Jeff, a character who, without being a die-hard Marvel fan, probably wouldn’t. You knew it existed even from the House of Ideas comics.
That’s right, Jeff the Land Shark is not a character invented to be a playable hero within Marvel Rivals, although although we have not seen this friendly friend in a large number of media either, his origin definitely does not come from the video game, and in fact it has to do with GwenPool and even Deadpool himself and the Avengers.

The Earth Sharks were an experiment created by the evil MODOK for a frustrated attack against the Avengers, from which Jeff managed to escape and ended up meeting Gwenpool, who at the moment was part of the West-Coast Avengers, a team of which our beloved shark was part.

In the end, after this team dissolved, the paths of the semi-marine animal ended up meeting the mercenary with a Mouth, Deadpool; who showed him Monster Island, a place where the most fearsome creatures live and where little Jeff ended up finding his home.
