Fictional character biography

Jasper Sitwell graduated at the top of his class at S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy, with particularly high marks in airborne jump school and underwater maneuvers. When first introduced to S.H.I.E.L.D. Executive Director

Spymaster (who shoots him and puts Sitwell in a coma for a time),[3] and A.I.M., and even romances Whitney Frost,[4] a one-time Stark paramour. Sitwell is eventually reassigned back to S.H.I.E.L.D.,[volume & issue needed] but continues to play a role in the affairs of Tony Stark from time to time. When Obadiah Stane takes over what was by then named Stark International, Fury sends Sitwell on an ultimately failed attempt to retrieve the Iron Man armors.[5]

Sitwell, like most of the S.H.I.E.L.D. leadership at the time, is seemingly killed by a self-aware, renegade "Deltan" variety of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s

deprogrammed.[7] He has since become S.H.I.E.L.D.'s top interrogator, often paired with fellow agent Jimmy Woo.[8] He has also worked closely with G. W. Bridge, mainly in an attempt to neutralize the threat of the Punisher.[9]

Sitwell was one of the many S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who refused to join Norman Osborn's H.A.M.M.E.R. organization in the wake of the Skrull Secret Invasion. He would join with Dum Dum Dugan to form a mercenary paramilitary group that would engage H.A.M.M.E.R., HYDRA and its associate "Leviathan" program, alongside Nick Fury's Secret Warriors.[10] One of these many skirmishes sees Jasper lose his friends Eric Koenig and Gabriel Jones.[11]

He also works with Nick Fury in regards to the underground activities of Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier.[12]

During one of the Winter Soldier's missions, a brainwashed

Black Widow is brought into custody at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters. She had been influenced by old Russian brainwashing technology so it seemed she had broken free of one brainwashing attempt and had returned to her old self. This was actually a ruse by rogue Russian elements in order to strike at Nick Fury. Black Widow tried to kill Nick Fury but Sitwell got on the trajectory of the shot and was killed instead of Fury. His sacrifice gave Fury the opportunity to save himself.[1]

He returned as a zombie through unknown ways and was held in Area 13 by a S.H.I.E.L.D. division called S.T.A.K.E. Sitwell joined the Life Model Decoy of Dum Dum Dugan and Agent Martin Reyna to fight Teen Abomination. After the defeat of Teen Abomination, Jasper was brought back to his cell. On the way back to his cell, he crossed Dugan and recognized him.[13]

As part of the All-New, All-Different Marvel event, Jasper Sitwell's zombie form appears as a member of S.T.A.K.E.'s Howling Commandos.[14]

Jasper Sitwell's zombie form was seen with the Howling Commandos at the time when they help Old Man Logan rescue Jubilee from Dracula.[15]
