History

M.O.D.A.M. appeared to have been the A.I.M. agent S.O.D.A.M. (once believed to have been Maria Trovaya, first wife of Henry Pym) in an upgraded form.

After being modified in a lab at A.I.M. Headquarters, M.O.D.A.M. was sent to retrieve the quantum bands of Quasar for A.I.M.'s client Doctor Minerva.

M.O.D.A.M. failed at this mission, and was later assigned to retrieve Diamondback, Asp, Anaconda, and Black Mamba for another of A.I.M.'s clients, Superia. M.O.D.A.M. succeeded this time but Superia's plans were thwarted and M.O.D.A.M. was defeated by Captain America.

Later when A.I.M. Island was invaded by Captain America, Falcon and Diamondback, M.O.D.A.M. failed to prevent former client Superia from destroying a Life-Model Decoy of the ruler of A.I.M. Meanwhile, Red Skull arrived and broke into the base while everyone else was distracted with the fighting.

M.O.D.A.M. was apparently killed by Skull shortly afterward or another member of Hydra and her body was taken back to a Hydra base where it was put on display.
