The group of scientists grew as
well, both in number and acheive-
ments. They made significant ad-
vances in various fields, including
robotics, bionics, bioengineering,
and physics. Eventually the scien-
tists publicly incorporated their orga-
nization under the name Advanced
Idea Mechanics (AIM). No one out-
side of the organization knew of
Al M's subversive goals, accomplish-
ments, or scientific achievements,
let alone that AIM was actually the
research wing for the still-secret HY-
DRA. Rather, AIM was believed by
the public to be an international car-
tel dealing with the development and
marketing of new technological
products. AIM gained great influ-
ence with the U.S. government as a
supplier of hardware and weaponry
to governmental agencies.

Eventually HYDRA revealed its ex-
istence only to be defeated by
S.H.l.E.L.D. AIM, whose connection
to HYDRA remained secret, at-
tempted to discredit S.H.l.E.L.D. di-
rector Nicholas Fury and thereby force
his removal. The attempt, led by
Count Bornag Royale, failed and in-
stead enabled Fury to expose AIM's
duplicity. Although S.H.l.E.L.D. be-
lieved it had put an end to AIM, much
of the organization escaped capture
and preserved the secrecy of their

connection with HYDRA.
AIM created a wide variety of

advanced technological weaponry
and, during the period it was under
HYDRA's control, made great strides
in creating androids which the orga-
nization utilized as assassins. Dur-

HISTORY:
The Blue Streak was an operative

of the subversive organization called
the Corporation and was assigned to
infiltrate S.H. l.E.L.D .'s "Super
Agent" program. Inspired by the
large number of independent su-
perbeings, S.H.l.E.L.D. had decided
to create its own cadre of superbe-
ings and high tech operatives whose
equipment gave them the functional
equivalents of super powers. The
Blue Streak was provided with his
unique rocket-propelled skates and
trained in their use. However, he was
exposed as a Corporation spy and
defeated in combat by Captain
America.

After leaving prison, the Blue
Streak led a successful career as a
professional criminal in the Ameri-
can Midwest. His rocket skates and
laser weaponry enabled him to pur-
sue moving vehicles on highways
and rob them in transit. Eventually
the Blue Streak clashed again with
Captain America, who encountered
him on the highways of Appalachia.
The Blue Streak decoyed Captain
America into going down a cliffside
looking for him, while the Blue
Streak actually escaped in another
direction. Unable to travel much fur-
ther under his skates' power, Blue
Streak hitchhiked a ride on a passing
truck. Unfortunately the Blue
Streak's race had come to the end;
the driver was actually Scourge, who
promptly shot him in the head.
