The Watchdogs is an armed, radical hate group with plans to eliminate the Inhumans. Following the Inhuman Outbreak, the Watchdogs formed negative opinions of the Inhumans in general, and regularly posted these opinions on the internet. Disillusioned former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Felix Blake joined them and provided the group with Nitramene as well as intel on an Advanced Threat Containment Unit storage facility. The Watchdogs used the implosive substance to destroy the facility, killing the personnel within, and broadcasted the terrorist act, gaining the full attention of Phil Coulson, director of S.H.I.E.L.D.
When Blake gave his next orders to members of the Watchdogs, Alphonso Mackenzie and his younger brother Ruben Mackenzie showed up at the barn where they were meeting. The group became convinced that the two of them were Inhumans. They tracked the brothers back to their home and attacked them, only to be defeated. Shortly after, Blake received a nuclear missile from HYDRA leader Gideon Malick which was taken from the ATCU storage before the Watchdogs attacked the building and broadcasted the process. Five members of the Watchdogs were ambushed by Hive and Hellfire where they ended up defeated. Afterwards, Hive had Holden Radcliffe subject them to the Terrigenesis by using the Kree Blood and the Hive's parasites on them. This resulted combination transformed the five members of the Watchdogs into the Inhuman Primitives.
Some criminal organizations, such as the Aryan Brotherhood and Chinatown Crew started to work for the Watchdogs for the money. However, the vigilantes Quake and Ghost Rider fought against them and prevented their crimes. Senator Rota Nadeer funded some of the Watchdogs to a global attack on the Inhumans with advanced equipment. They put EMP devices in several major cities in the world, and the list of Inhumans they got from S.H.I.E.L.D.. Once the first EMP hit Miami, an unidentified Watchdogs operative released a footage of him presenting himself as an Inhuman who demanded the cancellation of the registration of Inhumans, and threatened that more cities will be attacked if they do not follow his demands. This caused the public to go against the Inhumans, with Senator Naderr attacked the Inhumans on television. A Watchdogs squad entered a party in Miami searching for an Inhuman. They detected Elena Rodriguez, but S.H.I.E.L.D. agents stopped them. The agents found the EMP device and light the city back.
The Watchdogs operator called Nadeer and informed her that his men had killed 17 Inhumans around the world, despite S.H.I.E.L.D.'s interfering. Quake fought against Watchdogs soldiers and took from them a list of Inumans. The Inhuman JT James created an alliance with the Watchdogs in which he finds them Inhumans and he will be the last Inhuman to die. The Watchdogs ambushed Quake and Agent Jemma Simmons in a public storage with the help of James. However, the two managed to escape by the help of Agents Phil Coulson and Alphonso Mackenzie.
