Serpent Society
The Serpent Society is an organization of snake-themed supervillains appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The society is a continuation of the original group the Serpent Squad and was later changed into Serpent Solutions. The Serpent Society first appeared in Captain America #310 (October 1985) and was created by writer Mark Gruenwald and artist Paul Neary. Serpent Solutions first appeared in Captain America: Sam Wilson #1 by writer Nick Spencer and artist Daniel Acuña.
The Serpent Society have appeared in various media outside comics, including the animated series The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes and Marvel Disk Wars: The Avengers and the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Captain America: Brave New World.
The Serpent Society is formed by Sidewinder as he gathers a number of villains with snake-themed powers. The group is organized as a supervillain labor union, with the members providing protection for each other, sharing profits, and organizing profitable crimes. The Society works, on an as-needed basis, for criminal organizations such as Hydra, the Maggia, the Kingpin, and A.I.M. Some of these jobs bring the Serpent Society into conflict with Captain America and his partners. At one point, the Viper takes control of the Society, plotting to take control of the United States, but is foiled by Captain America, D-Man, Nomad, the Falcon and former members of the Serpent Society.
As part of the All-New Marvel NOW! branding, a resurrected Viper (Jordan Stryke) takes control of the Serpent Society. He reorganizes the group as "Serpent Solutions" and provides their services to various corporations. Serpent Solutions is opposed by the new Captain America, formerly known as Falcon.

Most of the villains Mark Gruenwald introduced in Captain America were created to symbolize aspects of contemporary American culture and the world political situation. In the case of the Serpent Society, Gruenwald created them to symbolize trade unions.
The Serpent Society was founded by Sidewinder, and was a descendant of sorts from the two original Serpent Squads. The first Squad consisted of the original Viper, his brother the original Eel, and Cobra. The second Squad consisted of the second Viper (Madame Hydra), Eel, Princess Python, Cobra, and Krang. Sidewinder led the third incarnation of the Squad that included Anaconda, Black Mamba, and Death Adder. They were to retrieve the fabled Serpent Crown from its then-underwater grave. Sidewinder used his cloak and abandoned his comrades during an underwater mishap and proceeded to collect the reward for the Serpent Crown.
Anaconda, Mamba and Adder survived and confronted Sidewinder. During that time, Sidewinder had invested the money and started the groundwork for the Serpent Society. The Society was to provide its members with better access to technology, bigger access to jobs, higher pay, comradeship, safe lodging, and a host of other benefits. Most importantly, with Sidewinder's teleportation cloak, members never had to fear imprisonment again. It was, essentially, a supervillain labor union.
