Members: Burner, Lifter, Peeper, Shocker, Slither The Mutant Force is a team of super human mutants who work as mercenaries. The team was originally organized by another mutant, Magneto, when he was still seeking to conquer the world. The Mutant Force aided Magneto in kidnapping the mutant known as Mister One and in battling Captain America. But the group failed to stop Captain America. Believing themselves to be failures, the Mutant Force was soon abandoned by Magneto. The Force was found by another mutant, the Mandrill, who gave them the name “Mutant Force” and used them as his agents in attacking a United States Air Force base and in raiding a gold supply. But the Mutant Force was taken captive by the team of adventurers called the Defenders. To avoid prison terms, the Mutant Force went to work for the United States government, for whom they battled the Hulk. The Mutant Force later went to work for the subversive organization called the Secret Empire. Led by another Secret Empire operative, ex Colonel Robert Baxter, now known as Mad-Dog, the Mutant Force attacked the Defenders at the wedding of one of their members, Baxter’s ex-wife Patsy Walker. Defeated by the Defenders, Mad-Dog and the Mutant Force were taken into custody by SHIELD. But the Secret Empire released Mad-Dog and the Mutant Force, who both then aided the Empire’s new leader, Professor Power, in his attempt to launch a satellite that would trigger a major nuclear war. The Defenders managed to thwart the scheme with the aid of SHIELD, and Mad-Dog and the Mutant Force were again captured. The Mutant Force is now once again in SHIELD custody. |
