Commander Kraken (Earth-616)

Commander Kraken considered himself a "self-styled modern day pirate", although he was more of a privateer, selling his services to employers. He first encountered Namor the Sub-Mariner and was defeated.
He eventually sold his services to terrorist organization HYDRA, and became their Naval Action Division Leader. In this capacity, he fought Iron Man, who managed to defeat him and destroy his fleet.

Unable to rebuild his boats, Commander Kraken retired to the Midwest and committed minor crimes. He was contacted by Gary Gilbert, a former customed criminal turned into business agent for criminals. Gilbert was worried about the Scourge of the Underworld, a masked figure who was killing customed criminals such as Gilbert and Commander Kraken. Gilbert organized a meeting in the The Bar with No Name, Medina County, Ohio, to discuss potential counter-attacks. As the Scourge was known to use weapons instead of powers, weapons were to be left at the door. However, the Scourge infiltrated in the meeting disguised as the bartender and shot down all the seventeen criminals (including Commander Kraken) wielding a cut-down .50 submachine gun in each hand.
