Red Skull

Red Skull is an arch-nemesis of Captain America and his partner Bucky, second to Baron Zemo and one of the commanders of HYDRA during World War II.

World War IIEdit
Not much is known about the Red Skull's youth. It is known however, that at some point in his life, he joined the Nazis, and became an officer of HYDRA.[1] Soon, he led the German armies, with the HYDRA forces leading all attacks, into conquering much of the continental Europe. However, the Allies, led by Captain America, counterattacked and liberated much of the territory under German occupation.

The Bifrost BridgeEdit
In 1943, the Red Skull was a commander of HYDRA fortress in Norway. He began to develop multiple advanced creations, the primary focus of research being Norse mythology. When Captain America and the Howling Commandos attacked his fortress, the Red Skull activated a teleporter machine which tapped into the Bifrost Bridge, transporting multiple monsters from the other realms into Midgard. He intended to form an army of legendary creatures so he could send them against the Allies and win the war.

DefeatEdit

 * "I will have my revenge. On you, and the world!"
 * ―Red Skull to Captain America [src]

However, the Red Skull's plan stopped by Captain America and Bucky who damaged his machine, starting a fire in the fortress. He attempted to escape with his advanced rocket plane but was followed by Captain America and Bucky. As Captain America reached him, he set his transport to self-destruct and flew away in an ejector seat.[3]

It failed to destroy Captain America and Bucky, who survived and went on ice for decades. The Red Skull has never heard of again when the war ended with Allied victory and HYDRA's defeat.

21st centuryEdit
Through unknown means, the Red Skull remained alive until the 21st century. He had another confrontation with his old enemy, Captain America.

Appearance Edit
During World War II, the Red Skull was always dressed in a unique black uniform with the insignia of both the Wehrmacht (the eagle above the right breast pocket) and the SS (the red armband with two black stripes). He wore a military decoration similar to the Iron Cross around his neck. After the war, he changed the uniform for a black businessman suit.
