Scourge

A villain operative who runs with Batroc's Brigade, this Scourge clashes with Captain America and moves in circles populated by heavy hitters like Baron Zemo and Diamondback.

Mark Gruenwald and Kieron Dwyer introduced this Scourge into the Marvel Universe with Captain America #347 in 1988, a Copper Age debut that dropped them straight into one of comics' most storied titles. Counted among the ranks of Batroc's Brigade, this character navigates a world populated by heavy hitters — Captain America, Baron Zemo, Diamondback, and Rachel Leighton all share the same pages. With a key issue among their handful of appearances, Scourge punches above their weight in collector significance, a compact but notable presence in the late-'80s Captain America corner of Marvel.
