killing is his business and business is
good
welcome to watchmojo.com today we will
explore the comic book origins of the
amoral assassin known as crossbones sub
crossbones want to just give up and save
yourself the embarrassment as with most
comic book characters they’re often
reimagining zedge different versions to
a character’s past we’ve chosen to
primarily follow the storylines which
unfolded in Captain America vol 1
numbers 363 83 and 402 404 as well as
Captain America vol 2 number 3 and vol 5
number 25
Thanks yeah seems pretty helpless
without crossbones aka Brock rumlow is
one of Captain America’s most determined
and closely matched foes thanks to his
extensive proficiencies in hand-to-hand
combat weapons training and military
strategy although rumlow doesn’t possess
any superpowers his accomplished skill
and relentless thirst for violence give
Marvel’s heroes plenty of reason to fear
Him crossbones his first appearance can
be traced back to Captain America number
359 where the costumed killer appears as
a shadowy figure stalking Captain
America crossbones his true motive isn’t
made clear until he assaults caps
partner and lover Rachel Layton also
known as former serpent Society member
Diamondback crossbones reveals his code
name to Diamondback before knocking her
unconscious as it’s explained that he’d
been following both cap and the
villainous Baron Zemo as they searched
for pieces of the valuable artifact the
bloodstone it wouldn’t be long before we
were treated to our first glimpses of
Remos incredible physical prowess
fighting skill and innate talent with
weapons this is also where the
tumultuous and troubled history between
rumlow and Layton would first be
established indeed Diamondbacks own
origins reveal a close tragic
relationship with crossbones years prior
brought from below was a New York City
gang leader who violently assaulted
Layton an attack which ended with rumlow
on the run for the murder of one of
Layton’s older brothers Diamondback and
crossbones both coincidentally ended up
at the taskmasters school for criminals
crossbones already a seasoned criminal
quickly rose to the ranks of instructor
under the moniker of bingo Brock rumlow
would earn his living as a mercenary in
the years to follow with his time with
taskmaster signing up with Albert Malek
a KGB agent who posed as the Red Skull
Malick sent crossbones and a team of
agents on a mission to invade the Swiss
home of noted Hydra biochemist Arnim
Zola crossbones was the only living
survivor after having been captured by
both Sola and the original Red Skull who
is revealed to be very much alive
he said together the Avengers can face
threats no single hero
can then it is only fitting that we that
greatest foes work together in order to
destroy skull enlists crossbones as an
ally and further trains him in the art
of combat skills which would go on to
define him as a formidable enemy of
Captain America for years to come I just
want you to know Kat in person
it kind of feels personal
in 1997 crossbones his personality
underwent a bit of a change during the
Rob Liefeld and Jeff lobe era his noted
reputation as a bit of a motormouth gave
way to a quieter and more menacing
crossbones it’s just gonna hurt there
are no prisoners with Hydra just order
and order only comes for pain you ready
for yours I shut the hell up
still at the right hand of the red skull
as the wannabe dictators ruthlessly
effective assassin this crossbones
certainly prefers to let his fists do
the talking
as he assaults Captain America in a
graveyard without ever speaking a taunt
insult or even a word to his enemy move
away from your station
like he said captain’s orders
you picked the wrong side agent hands on
where you’re standing this silent but
deadly version of crossbones was dropped
for Marvel’s civil war storyline in 2007
however as the infamous assassin is
captured as the gunman responsible for
the apparent murder of Captain America
this killing shocks the Marvel Universe
down to its very core although it’s
later revealed that crossbones only
managed to wound cap in the shoulder
with SHIELD agent Shannon Carter under
hypnosis actually firing the fatal shot
still crossbones is important place in
this equally memorable Captain America
storyline makes him one of the uros most
iconic adversaries are you a fan of the
ruthless killer known as crossbones
for more sharpshooting top tans and
hard-hitting comic book origins
