Details

Phase 2

HYDRA was a Nazi terrorist/military organization bent on world domination. It was founded by Johann Schmidt shortly after Hitler’s ascension to power in Germany, as the scientific branch of the Nazi Schutzstaffel. Its main purpose was to create advanced weaponry for the German military, but over time, members of HYDRA became loyal only to Schmidt himself. At the beginning of World War II, HYDRA still fought for the Nazi cause, but in 1943, Schmidt separated HYDRA from Nazi Germany to start his own conquest.

HYDRA appeared to have been dismantled by Captain America and his Howling Commandos in 1945, with the death of Schmidt at the Captain’s hands followed by the apparent death of the Captain himself during an emergency crash-landing of a HYDRA experimental weapon. After World War II ended, several HYDRA scientists, including Schmidt’s second-in-command Arnim Zola, were recruited by American agencies to work for the USA (and to deny their talents to the USSR). Zola eventually found himself at SHIELD, where he worked until his death in 1972.

A new terrorist group calling itself HYDRA came to the intelligence community’s attention in the late 1970s. It’s been found to have ties to several despotic regimes, many of them originally brought to power by American meddling (eg, the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pinochet in Chile). There is no direct evidence to connect this organization to the Nazi-era group, although most intelligence agencies assume so. The existence of this new HYDRA is not known to the public.

The new HYDRA is suspected to have several corporate fronts. One of them (the connection to HYDRA unestablished and unknown) is the pharmaceutical company McMannister and Pratt, which has headquarters in San Diego, Seoul, and Berlin. McMannister and Pratt specializes in gene therapy, with a particular interest in the nervous system and neurodegenerative diseases.

HYDRA is suspected to be behind the abduction and experimentation on David North, however no evidence was found beyond an interest in the Project SuperSoldier serum.
