Killer Shrike
Killer Shrike is the name of two fictional characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
The Simon Maddicks incarnation of Killer Shrike first appeared in The Rampaging Hulk #1 (January 1977) and was created by John Warner and John Buscema.
Simon Maddicks was born in Williamsburg, Virginia. He began his career as a soldier in the United States Army. After that, he recalls little of his own past for unknown reasons. After being selected to be a special agent of the Roxxon Oil Company, Maddicks becomes a mercenary and professional criminal. Maddicks is given powered armor and an anti-gravity generator implanted in his spine.
For his first mission, Roxxon sends Killer Shrike to infiltrate the subversive organization called the Conspiracy, which Roxxon learned about through major purchases of technology from the Brand Corporation. The Conspiracy send Killer Shrike to capture a monster known as Goram. The plan is thwarted by Ulysses Bloodstone, who short-circuits Killer Shrike's weapons and badly injures him. Feeling sorry for Killer Shrike's condition, Bloodstone's agents send him to a New York hospital, where he remains comatose for several weeks.
After recovering, Maddicks is contacted by a group of Brand scientists led by Stephen Weems. Weems, better known as the villain Modular Man, seeks revenge against his enemies Spider-Man and Beast. In return, Modular Man promises Shrike information about his past. In battle with Spider-Man and Beast, Weems is killed before he can uphold his bargain. Shrike escapes and is found by Brand agents, who restore his memory and assign him to undercover work as a bodyguard to Brand president James Melvin. Following the dissolution of the Brand Corporation, Killer Shrike becomes a free agent.
Killer Shrike is apprehended by Helmut Zemo and forced to join the Thunderbolts, for unclear reasons.
Killer Shrike appears as a member of the Shadow Council's Masters of Evil. Killer Shrike is present when Max Fury and the Masters of Evil capture John Steele after he attempts to escape Bagalia with the Serpent Crown and the Crown of Thorns.
Killer Shrike is among the villains who join Swarm's Sinister Six when they attack Spider-Man and the students of the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning. After Swarm is defeated by Hellion, Killer Shrike and the other villains surrender.
