Fictional character biography

Andrew Forson was the Scientist Supreme of A.I.M. after the organization became public and established their base in the now sovereign island Barbuda and overthrew the Wizard with consent of the rest of A.I.M. Barbuba was then renamed A.I.M. Island[1]

Forson appears as the Supreme Leader of the new High Council of A.I.M. consisting of Graviton (who works as the Minister of Science), Jude the Entropic Man (who works as the Minister of Health), Mentallo (who works as the Minister of Home Affairs), Superia (who works as the Minister of Education in Bagalia), Yelena Belova (who works as the Minister of State in Bagalia), and an undercover Taskmaster (who works as the Minister of Defense).[2] Forson then leads A.I.M. into attending a weapons expo which led to A.I.M. fighting against the Secret Avengers. During the battle, Forson takes the opportunity to steal the Iron Patriot armor.[3]

Daisy Johnson launched an unsanctioned operation to send the Secret Avengers to A.I.M. Island to assassinate Forson, and they seemingly killed him. Johnson ended up suspended for breaking protocol and Maria Hill is put in charge of S.H.I.E.L.D. again. As Forson was revealed to be alive all along, the news of A.I.M. being a new permanent member of the Security Council is known.[4]

Forson finds Superia when she is badly injured after an incident on A.I.M. Island regarding an escaped creature.[5] An A.I.M. Agent then approaches Forson and Superia showing them a 2-D hologram of the Organism beating the Avengers. Taking pride in this, Forson orders their translocator activated and to retrieve their "lost child".[6]

When Taskmaster gets the chance to get Mockingbird off the island, she doesn't respond to anything he says until both are captured. While being interrogated, Taskmaster is shot and seemingly killed by Mockingbird who is now under the control of Forson.[7] Andrew Forson revealed that Mockingbird was secretly working for Forson years ago, and that he used Mockingbird to "get Victorious out of the way" so that he could take over the Cult of Entropy.[8]

Using an as-yet-unidentified device in the pages of Avengers World, Andrew Forson and A.I.M. accelerate the flow of time in the limits of A.I.M. Island creating in a matter of hours for the real world year of progress and transforming A.I.M. into a technologically-advanced empire.[9] When Smasher comes to the island, Forson has the Entropic Man transform her into his messenger.[10]
