Bloodlust

Bloodlust is a dangerous Marvel mercenary connected to the criminal organization A.I.M., who operates in violent company alongside figures like Whiplash and Leeann Foreman and has clashed with Captain America.

Bloodlust burst onto the Marvel scene in 1990, a Copper Age creation by Dwight Zimmerman and Rodney Ramos who wasted no time making an impression in the pages of Marvel Comics Presents. Tied to the shadowy machinations of A.I.M., she's the kind of dangerous figure who gravitates toward serious company — sharing adventures with the likes of Captain America and Steve Rogers, as well as fellow hard-edged characters Whiplash and Leeann Foreman. Her appearances are spread across Captain America and Marvel Comics Presents, and the fact that she earned a spot in the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z confirms she left enough of a mark to be worth cataloguing. Ten appearances across sixteen years make her a cult figure rather than a household name — exactly the sort of deep-cut discovery that makes digging through Marvel's back issues so rewarding.
