History

Nick Fury is a former US Army officer and CIA agent. He is a talented fighter, spy, and military strategist. Fury joined S.H.I.E.L.D. and was chosen to lead it as director.[3]

Chitauri Invasion[]

Evacuation of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Base[]

Arriving on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Base with Agent Hill during an evacuation, the duo freed Coulson, who briefed them on Loki's Scepter having been activated. Commandeering an impounded S.H.I.E.L.D. 4x4, the three made their way inside. Sending Hill to take care of the Phase 2 prototypes, Fury talked with Selvig and Hawkeye on the Tesseract. At that moment, however, Loki Laufeyson arrived through the portal and attacked the agents. Loki then used his Scepter to control several unconscious agents, forcing Fury and Hawkeye to fight them. Fury and Hawkeye were eventually able to back Loki into the portal chamber, where he used 12 projections of his image to fight them. After Fury and Hawkeye defeated these projections, Loki was able to take control of Hawkeye and Selvig, escaping with the Tesseract as the base begun to explode. After escaping in a helicopter and making one more unsuccessful attempt to apprehend Loki, Fury informed Hill that they were at war.

Phase II[]

Looking to recruit people for the Avengers Initiative, Nick Fury met with Steve Rogers who was currently training in the gym. Fury worked with Steve to create various pieces of Gym Apparatus, destroying much of the gym and knocking Stan Lee out in the process. Once the workout was finished, Fury asked Steve about the Tesseract, with Steve telling him they should've left it in the ocean. He dispatched agents to call in the help of Tony Stark and Dr. Bruce Banner. In short order, Loki made his first public appearance, and was apprehended, heralding an unexpected further addition to the collection of extraordinary people when Loki's brother Thor arrived, making demands of his own for Loki's extradition.

Fury could do little to quell the rising tensions in a ship now packed with egos, and problems only escalated when Steve Rogers uncovered the full extent of Phase Two. With arguments boiling over, Loki played his hand, and Fury and the others were caught completely off guard when the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier came under attack in a daring commando raid by Loki's soldiers. Fury returned to his post on the bridge to take command of the situation, with he and Hill engaging the still brainwashed Hawkeye and able to fight him off, forcing Hawkeye down to the detention level, wherupon Black Widow was able to incapacitate him and free him from Loki's mind control.

In the wake of the battle, Fury found agent Coulson knocked out by Loki, stuffing vacation tickets to Tahiti[3] in his pocket. He resolved to use Coulson's injury to his advantage, telling Stark and Rogers he was dead to give them a "push". Despite the ethically questionable nature of the plan, it proved to be effective, and the men set off in pursuit of Loki shortly thereafter.

Battle of New York[]

The Avengers Initiative may have finally come to fruition, but Fury's role in their battle was not yet done. The World Security Council issued orders to send a nuclear missile into the vicinity of Manhattan, which Fury refused, but then overriding orders saw one fighter jet escape him after he knocked another out of action with a rocket. He radioed a warning to Stark however, thus giving time for Iron Man to avert the crisis.[1]

Cosmic Brick Crisis[]

Commanding from the Sidelines[]

Nicholas Fury, Jr

Upon Silver Surfer's board being shot down, Fury took an interest in the "Cosmic Bricks" that resulted from the debris.

After inspecting the aftermath of the Grand Central Station battle, Fury sent the Cosmic Bricks to the Baxter Building for analysis and sending Iron Man to research further research into the Cosmic Bricks.

Mister Fantastic was having some research difficulty with the cosmic bricks, causing Fury to assign Captain America to help. At the same time, Fury assigned a S.H.I.E.K.l. research submarine to gather any Cosmic Bricks that landed in the ocean. Reed's brick was captured by Green Goblin, with Nick tracking him to Oscorp and sending Black Widow and Hawkeye to take care of it. After this mission failed, he was informed by Tony of Silver Surfer's connection of the power cosmic and the Surfer being held in Latveria before a break-in at the Raft occured, with him sending Hulk & Iron Man to take care of it.

After the majority of prisoners were freed from the raft and Loki acquired an arc reactor, Fury sent Black Widow and Hawkeye to retrieve it.

Operation: Latveria[]

With the Tesseract being held in Latveria, Fury acquired the assistance of the Fantastic Four to storm Doom's castle after S.H.I.E.L.D. provided cleanup assistance for the Baxter Building. With the Four and Fury taking the Fantasti-Car to Latveria, they were met with incoming fire, Fury and Torch split up with the rest of the team to secure the landing zone, while Reed set the Fantasti-Car to autopilot and landed on Latverian soil with Sue and Ben. Landing on the other side of the castle to Reed's team, Fury and Torch were met with heavy resistance from Latverian troops, causing Fury to send a distress call to the other team. Now together, the five were forced to trigger the security alarm, as this would cause many Doombots to be brought down from the interiors of the castle and thus grant them access to the Elevator. Upon reaching Doom's lair, the five were met by Green Goblin who attacked them, knocking Johnny Storm unconscious, and sending Doombots after the rest. Eventually, the four were able to knock out Goblin. Afterwards, Johnny regained consciousness and the five confronted Doom.However, they were then crushed under rocks as a result of Loki's blasts. The five survived this attack, clearing up the rubble and bringing the captured Silver Surfer back to the helicarrier. Fury then sent Thor & Iron Man after Doom and Loki, along with acquiring Professor X's assistance.

Last Stand on the Helicarrier[]

Talking with a partially recovered Silver Surfer, Fury learned of Loki using the power cosmic. Later, Fury briefed a group of heroes on the dangers posed by Doom and Galactus. Afterwards, Galactus himself arrived on Earth. Faced with the prospect of global annihilation, Tony and Reed faced him with a proposition, team up with the villains to stop Galactus. Nick Fury asked for this, calling Doctor Doom and facing him with his proposition. Upon Doom accepting, Fury tasked Iron Man and Thor with meeting up with Magneto and Abomination. Fury assigned himself to 'Team Three' with Mr Fantastic, Captain America and Doctor Octopus while giving orders to the other team. Team Three built a Black Hole generator to knock Galactus in, however, Galactus refused to let go, leaving the responsibility of knocking him in to it Team Four. Team Four's plan worked, knocking Loki and Galactus into the black hole, destroying the Doom Ray and the earth was saved. As Loki had left the Tesseract behind, Fury took it into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. As per Fury and Doom's earlier agreement, the villains were given a thirty second head-start to escape, an idea that was unintentionally sabotaged by Hulk's inability to count to three, allowing the villains to escape. Later, Fury reassembled the Silver Surfer's board from the pieces of Cosmic Bricks left behind, allowing Surfer to set Galactus on a course away from earth.[2]

Afterparty at Stark Tower[]

Celebrating their victory over Galactus, Tony Stark held a wrap party at Stark Tower. Fury attended the party and, much like the other guests, found it lifeless and boring. Eventually, Tony and Rhodey were able to build a DJ table for Fury to operate, bringing some life into the party.[2]

Maximum Overload[]

Upon seeing that Doctor Octopus was attacking a base of S.H.I.E.L.D. in New Jersey, Fury asked Spider-Man to go there and defeat the villain and later Fury took Ock into custody at the Hellicarrier.[4] He would also take Venom to the Helicarrier along with Captain America and Wolverine.[5] After the Helicarrier crashed into Tony's Malibu Mansion, Fury financed her concert and also presented Spider-Man with a S.H.I.E.L.D. badge.[6]

Fall of S.H.I.E.L.D.[]

Steven confronted Fury when he found out that Natasha was getting data from Hydra, and Fury revealed Project Insight to Steven. However, later, Fury would discover that S.H.I.E.L.D. had Hydra agents infiltrated, causing him to be attacked by the Winter Soldier, being presumed dead. Now with the help of Steven, Falcon and Maria Hill, they prevent Project Insight from being carried out, causing S.H.I.E.L.D to cease to exist.[1]

S.H.I.E.L.D. Return[]

With the help of Phil Coulson, Fury reactivated S.H.I.E.L.D., however, he resigned as Director and handed it over to Coulson.[3] Since then, he has been living in hiding at the Bartons' house.[1]

Age of Ultron[]

After the Avengers lost their first major confrontation against Ultron and retreated to the Barton farm to regroup, Nick Fury made contact with the team to inform them that he had been tracking Ultron's movements, including his attempts to access Earth's nuclear weapons stockpile and his efforts to create a new body for himself. When Ultron attacked Sokovia, Fury used an old Helicarrier given by Coulson to help the Avengers evacuate civilians while destroying Ultron's robot army.[1] After Ultron's defeat, Fury returned to S.H.I.E.L.D.[3][1]

Kang's Invasion[]

Nicholas Fury, Jr

Nick Fury warned the Avengers of an attack on a nuclear facility, Attuma's site, and an escape from the Raft. Having sent a distress call to the Guardians of the Galaxy, Fury greeted them and told them the situation had been taken care of. However, the Guardians instead warned Fury of Kang's invasion instead.[2][3] Fury challenges Kang by stating that they've already dealt with powerful aliens, but Kang destroys the Hellicarrier, leaving Fury in charge of gathering what's left of it. Thanks to an ally, several agents were saved from the wreckage in Manhattan, however, some of them were still lost and being attacked by Hydra henchmen, Super-Adaptoids, thugs and mummies. Fury asks that same ally for help to save them safely. Later, at the party celebrating Kang's defeat, Fury was present.[3]

Avengers Training[]

While organizing the Helicarrier with an agent, Fury was attacked by Nebula who used a ray to create a prison around Fury so that she, the Chitauris and Thanos could take the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier. Later he would be released thanks to Loki, who tricked the Chitauris disguised as Nebula. Now free, Fury would activate the Hellicarrier's security systems to defeat the Chitauri troops.[7]
