History

Cortex Inc. is an enterprise which in less than two years went from an unknown start-up to a giant in their industry. They secretly created products which infected the public consciousness in order to slowly control society.

When the powerful material Phlogistone was discovered on the Moon, Cortex tasked C. Anderson Sixty with establishling a headquarters in the human lunar colony of Tranquility Gulch.[1] At the product launch of a Cortex's phlogistone-powered glasses, Iron Man created a distraction in order to access to their network. He then forced the company to permanently halt production of the glasses.[2]

Stark later revealed Anderson Sixty's alliance with A.I.M. to the press in order to turn public perception against Cortex. With his life ruined, Sixty tried to kill Stark with a laser cutter. However, Stark was able to disarm Sixty by submerging his hand in a tank of liquid nitrogen, thereby maiming him.[3]

Cortex's CEO, Jason Quantrell, was later possessed by the Beyond Corporation, who used the company as a front to further their own agenda against humanity.[4]
