History
Much of Carl's early life is unknown though, presumably, it's not much different from his Earth-616 counterpart's. He eventually joined the Hood's gang of super powered criminals. He was in a relationship with Titania.
When Santo Rico was threatened by Magnus' rule, he stood there with Titania, and battled the Sentinels and Micromax, possibly killing him, before being "lobotomized" by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s telepaths led by Madame Web. Before his death, he made escape Titania, throwing her right to Mexico, on Hood's order, so that she could spread their actions and words to the sapiens.
He fell, crushing the bodies of his partners and also part of Magnus' troops, and his giant stone body became a memorial for the sapiens across the world.
Powers and Abilities
Powers
Seemingly those of Carl Creel (Earth-616)#Powers. The Absorbing Man can alter the molecular structure of his body, his clothes, and his wrecking ball to mimic the properties of any material he touches. This process also gives him enhanced strength, endurance, and in most cases, resistance to injury. If the object touched holds some form of energy, such as a battery or a blast furnace, Creel absorbs these properties as well. He also has limited shape-changing abilities when absorbing certain objects, such as forming hammer-like fists when touching a hammer or growing to enormous size when copying items of massive power or strength. If his body is broken into pieces while in a non-human state he can mentally reassemble himself.

Absorbing Man's Ball and Chain
Notes
Since Thor made no appearance in the House of M, it is unknown if Carl has a new origin.
