History

The Shadow Council is a secret organization with connections to the Abyss (a mysterious entity which is said to power the Ultimate Nullifier). Their plans are vaguely understood, but will somehow result in the destruction of civilization sometime in the future.

The organization traces it roots to an event sometime in the 19th century, when a man named Aloysius Thorndrake found a portal to Mars and used it to go exploring. Today, Thorndrake still leads the Council. It later gained members like Max Fury (a rogue Life Model Decoy of Nick Fury) and a brainwashed John Steele.

The Council's current schemes include digging up alien artifacts on Mars, attempting to replicate the Super-Soldier serum, and resurrecting Fu Manchu.

The Shadow Council later had Max Fury form their incarnation of the Masters of Evil
