History: The eldest of three children, Nicholas Joseph Fury grew up in Depression-era New York City with his brother Jacob and sister Dawn. Fury's mother died while he was very young and his father Jack Fury, an American pilot who joined the British war effort during World War I, remarried and the children were raised by his stepmother in lieu of Jack Fury's own early death. It wouldn't be until Nick Fury became a soldier himself overseas that he would learn of his father's military service. Living in the tough streets of Hell's Kitchen, Fury soon became fast friends with Red Hargrove, whom he helped keep out of trouble, and Erwin Fitzmaurice, a tough as nails kid with a strong sense of justice. Fury himself was no stranger to trouble, but more than often confined it to the boxing ring where he would bout, or in the Police Athletic League where he became one of the finest marksman.
Nick Fury, Fitzmaurice and Hargrove caught the eye of Lt. "Happy Sam" Sawyer who enlisted them for a special mission in Holland. On this mission Fury made the acquaintance of his future life-long friend, the circus strongman Timothy "Dum Dum" Dugan. Seeing the Nazi menace firsthand, Hargrove was moved to say he would enlist, and Fury and Fitzmaurice said they would follow him. However, they didn't enlist until 1941, where they received nine weeks of basic training at Fort Dix without Red Hargrove, hoping to ride out the wave of unemployment in the States. Eventually, Fury and Fitzmaurice reunited with Hargrove, both getting stationed at Pearl Harbor.
Following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Fury and Fitzmaurice were spurred on by the death of Hargrove during the attack to join the U.S. Rangers and were eventually recruited and reunited with Captain Sawyer who made them members of the First Attack Squad; aka the "Howling Commandos", a specially-trained band of soldiers who undertook some of the most dangerous missions of the war. Together with Dum Dum Dugan, Fury and Fitzmaurice led Gabe Jones, Robert "Reb" Ralston, Dino Manelli, Izzy Cohen and Jonathan Juniper, as well as their later additions Percival Pinkerton and Eric Koenig against the likes of Red Skull, Baron Heinrich Zemo and other Axis villains, fighting alongside such war heroes as Captain America and Bucky. As leader of the Howling Commandos, Fury struck blow after blow against the Nazis and their allies through missions that ranged from deep infiltration missions behind enemy lines to undercover work and even some home front action. It was during one of these missions that he first met Reed Richards who would go on to become Mister Fantastic, leader of the Fantastic Four.
During the war, Fury also first crossed paths with his most dangerous foe, Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker. Strucker's humiliating defeats at the hands of Fury would drive Strucker to devote a lifetime seeking revenge. Among the formative events during this period of his life included the friendships made with Dum Dum Dugan and Gabe Jones (both of whom would follow him into S.H.I.E.L.D.), and fighting alongside fellow war hero Captain America. Also during the war, Fury met Lady Pamela Hawley, who would become his first (and some say only true) love. Tragically she died before Fury was able to propose marriage to her. During his relationship with Hawley, they crossed paths with Doctor Strange in a taste of his future strange and extraordinary adventures. During the war Fury and his Commandos faced super-powered menaces that included vampires and other-dimensional beings.
Two serious injuries sustained during this time would have a serious impact in his later life: a grenade blast that began the slow deterioration of his sight in his left eye, and a landmine accident that led to Fury being inoculated with the Infinity Formula. The Infinity Formula substantially slowed his aging process, and Fury was thrust with a double edged sword: although his life was saved, the consequences of the Infinity Formula would haunt him throughout his life as he would see many friends age and die, as well as become the target of various villains seeking his secret.
Fury was contacted by the Board of Directors of the newly organized international espionage organization SHIELD (Supreme Headquarters International Espionage Law-enforcement Division) and offered directorship by Tony Stark.
To this day, Fury still serves as SHIELD's director.
Equipment: M1911A1, AKM, Oerlikon 20mm AA gun, AMD-65
Powers: Nick Fury's aging had been slowed greatly by the Infinity Formula, a serum created by Dr. Berthold Sternberg. Fury was first inoculated with the serum in the 1940's. Fury took the serum annually for many years. Due to its cumulative effect, Fury no longer needs additional doses to prolong his life span.
Abilities: Master Martial Artist, Master Tactician and Strategist, Advanced Military Operator, Expert Marksman, Weapons Proficiency, Multilingual, Expert Vehicular Driver
Weaknesses: He has 95% vision loss in his injured left eye, over which he wears a cosmetic eyepatch.
Trivia:
-Tony Stark's first choice for SHIELD director was Fury's childhood friend Erwin Fitzmaurice (who is now a General in the Military). However, Fitzmaurice declined the offer because he felt it would isolate him from his family, so he recommended Fury for the position.
-Fury sometimes wonders why he has to put up with Deadpool.
-He's 6'2" tall.
