Sons of the Serpent
The Sons of the Serpent are a supervillain group appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist Don Heck, the group first appeared in The Avengers #32 (September 1966). The Sons of the Serpent is depicted as a racist organization. It experiments on people attempting to cross the American border. Superhero Joaquín Torres was notably captured by the group, and their experiments resulted in a painful transformation, turning him into a hybrid of a vampire and a falcon. The organization is also known under the codename Sons of the Shield.
The Sons of the Serpent debuted in The Avengers #32 (September 1966), created by Stan Lee and Don Heck. It appeared in the 1972 Defenders series, the 1989 Captain Marvel series, and the 1996 Captain America series.
The Sons of the Serpent made a cameo in the 2008 Runaways series,[citation needed] and appeared in the 2010 Avengers: Children's Crusade series. It appeared in the 2010 Taskmaster series, the 2011 Daredevil series, and the 2015 Captain America: Sam Wilson series.
The Sons of the Serpent are a subversive organization of costumed American racist super-patriots who oppose all racial, ethnic, and religious minorities. They sought to subvert the United States through hate crimes and organized protests, and were opposed by the Avengers and the Defenders. There have been many incarnations of the Sons of the Serpent across history.
The first group calling itself the Sons of the Serpent first appeared in Avengers #32. They were secretly led by General Chen, an agent of Communist China. They attack black scientist Bill Foster who is working with Pym, meaning he tells the Avengers to investigate them. As the Supreme Serpent, Chen attempted to control the Avengers by holding Captain America hostage and making a member impersonate him. Hawkeye infiltrates the Sons when they launch a recruiting drive.[volume & issue needed]
The second Sons of the Serpent first appeared in Avengers #73. They were led by racist television demagogues Dan Dunn and Montague Hale, and targeted the African superhero Black Panther.
The third Sons of the Serpent first appeared in Defenders #22. They were financed through J.C. Pennysworth of Richmond Enterprises (Nighthawk's company) who was an African-American posing as a white racist in pursuit of power.
A sub-group of Serpent was featured in a back-up story in the nineteenth Avengers annual. Hubie Green is a young boy who idolizes the Avengers and dreams of being a super-hero. He gets the chance in a way he does not enjoy; he must turn his brother, the Serpent leader, over to the Avengers in order to save several cities from nuclear destruction.
