Norbert Ebersol

Paul Norbert Ebersol is a self-taught electronics and mechanical genius who, frustrated that the world undervalued his intellect, turned to supervillainy as the Fix-It and later Fixer. With no innate powers, he relies entirely on his extraordinary skill at building advanced weaponry and gadgetry.

Born into the Bronze Age of Marvel Comics with a debut in Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. #17 back in 1971 — courtesy of the legendary trio of Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Don Heck — Norbert Ebersol has proven himself one of the more quietly enduring figures in the Marvel Universe, racking up over a century of catalog appearances across an impressive 55-year publishing span. He's most at home in the pages of Thunderbolts and Iron Man, where he shares the stage with a rogues' gallery of morally complex Marvel figures like Melissa Gold, Karla Sofen, Abner Jenkins, and Songbird. With seven key-issue appearances to his name and recent appearances in Thunderbolts: Doomstrike, Norbert Ebersol is the kind of deep-cut Marvel character that rewards the curious collector — a Bronze Age original still making waves well into the modern era.
