Some time later, following their own apparent return from death following the Onslaught event, the Avengers were confronted by the Grim Reaper's all-new Legion of the Unliving. Lloigoroth then appeared and apparently destroyed the Reaper for failing to complete their bargain, after which the accursed crash victims then peacefully returned to their rest. This cost the Reaper his control over the Legionnaires, who regained some degree of their independent will and turned against him.

The heroes were facing defeat by their gruesome opponents when they were rescued by the Vision, who confronted the Grim Reaper and caused him to face a horrific epiphany, that he had committed suicide and the Avengers were innocent of his death. At that point in time an undead being with necromantic abilities, the Reaper created his Legion from the victims of a plane crash with aid from Lloigoroth, a Lovecraftian demonic entity, and lured his enemies the Avengers into a Hell-like reality in which to battle them. Comprised of zombified facsimiles of deceased (at least at the time) foes of super-heroes and other powerful beings, he used the villainous modern Black Knight, Baron Heinrich Zemo, one of the Red Guardians, Count Nefaria, Inferno, Nebulon the Celestial Man, the Star Stalker, Necrodamus, and the demonic Khufor (formerly the pharaoh Amenhotep). Himself at one point one of the drafted Legionnaires, the Grim Reaper went on to create his own Legion of the Unliving, the fourth to exist and first to be created by him.
