History

Nick Fury (Marvel; Ultimate Alliance)

Fury was on the Helicarrier UNN Alpha when it was attacked. He sent out an alert, bringing Spider-Man, Wolverine, Captain America, and Thor to the Helicarrier. He later formed a task force to take down the Masters of Evil that he called the Ultimate Alliance.

He was the leader of the group, sending them on missions and guiding them along the way. He was transported into space along with a group of the heroes by Uatu, and later returned to Earth to fight off many Doombots on his own, eventually sending the team to confront the evil Doctor once and for all. After Doom's defeat, he disbanded the team.[1]

Around four years later after defeating Doom, Fury discovered a terrorist plan by the new Latverian prime minister Lucia von Bardas to attack America. Because the government would not allow S.H.I.E.L.D. to attack Latveria, Fury assembled Captain America, Iron Man, Wolverine and Spider-Man into a secret team to stop Bardas. They were successful, but a year later, Von Bardas attacked New York anyway in revenge. After destroying some of the city, she was stopped by a team of super-heroes. The government found out about the unsanctioned attack on Latveria and Fury was exiled.

Some time later, Fury rescueed a small team of heroes who were severely injured during an attack on the Geffen-Myer Chemical Plant. Taking them back to a secret S.H.I.E.L.D. bunker, Fury healed the heroes and enlisted their help in investigating the Pro-Reg Nanite network, which he believed to have been hijacked. Fury guided the team through an infiltration of the Ryker's Island Penitentiary, and after they gained the nanite network logs he and the Tinkerer informed the team of the Fold, a sentient entity born from the growing Nanite network. Fury teleported to Ryker's and entered the Negative Zone Prison 42 along with the team of heroes.

When the Nanite-controlled villains were released, Fury headed off to re-open the portal back to Earth while the heroes went to find a pure Nanite sample, which they hoped to use to find a way to defeat The Fold. The majority of the Alliance made it to the portal and returned to Ryker's, but Fury was caught in the self-destruction of Prison 42 along with a number of heroes and villains.

As part of the Fold

The Alliance later discover that the Superhumans caught in the explosion were absorbed into The Fold, which had escaped the Negative Zone and launched an invasion on Earth. The Alliance went to Wakanda to hold back The Fold and liberate Wakanda. There they learn that Fury was also taken over by The Fold. Fury offered to stop the attack on the Alliance if they willingly join The Fold, but they refused and Fury sent an army of Fold warriors to attack the Wakandan Palace, including Green Goblin and Venom.

Realizing that most of their bases were compromised by Fury's knowledge, the Alliance moved to Wakanda and formed a plan to shut down The Fold using a stasis signal. They went to Iceland and headed to The Fold's Repeater Tower to broadcast the signal. After battling through a slew of enemies and controlled heroes they made it to the top of the tower and broadcasted the signal.

However before The Fold could be rounded up and disbanded, Nick Fury, heavily upgraded with stronger nanites, stopped the signal and attacked the team of heroes using a variety of powers from Fold members. After an epic battle which destroyed much of the top tower platform, Fury was defeated and The Fold is disbanded.

After being cured by Mr. Fantastic and S.H.I.E.L.D. medics, Fury thanked Captain America and Iron Man for freeing him from The Fold. The further fate of Nick is unknown, but while Maria Hill was appointed as a S.H.I.E.L.D. director in Fury's absence, Tony Stark took her place after the war. [2]

Notes

  • Even though in the first game he had costumes of Ultimate Nick Fury, it's still the same character and they're purely cosmetic, so most likely Nick just used some camouflaging S.H.I.E.L.D. technology.
  • The second game tried to describe Nantite Nick's continued presence in the timeline and his allegiance to the heroes that defeated him. Reed Richards dubbed the phenomenon the "What If? Effect". So even though Nick was cured, for the universe of the game it's perfectly fine that he then joined the Ultimate Alliance still being powered up by the Fold.
