Trying to ID a story / plot

[UnclePsychosis]

Hey folks

I'm hoping that someone can help me to ID a story/plotline that I read as a teenager. I can only remember a few details and its been driving me mad trying to work out what it was... The marvel universe is so huge that googling hasn't really got me very far.

Here's what I remember:

1. The main villain was essentially a big strong muscly human. He had a very simple/childlike intellect but was a combat expert. He worked for some kind of secret organisation and there was a female scientist who acted as his "mother". He didn't have superpowers but he had technology which let him "fly".

2. The storyline I'm thinking of features SHIELD, and The Punisher had a very, very short cameo in it. The Punisher is visiting SHIELD when the main villain attacks. Punisher hears the sound of gunfire/explosions and says something like ".22s, stun grenades, and something else I don't recognise" and Fury replies "the .22s are ours, no idea about the rest..."

3. At the end of the attack SHIELD have been badly beaten up. Villain is returning to his dropship (I think) and has kidnapped a random female SHIELD agent. Female scientist/mother tells him not to bring "toys" back with him and so he drops the agent to her death.

4. I *think* this was published in the early to mid 1990s, but it might have been before then.

Any ideas? I'm sorry the details are so vague but I can only remember a few specific panels of the comic!!

Thanks

Do you remember the main character in it?

Do you remember the main character in it?

No... I don't remember there being a single superhero character. Not very helpful I know.

Well SHIELD had a series at different points including one that ran during the early 90's. That might be it.

This has all the covers to it so see if it rings a bell.

I didn't even know there was a SHIELD book going on during the 90's.

I'm now wondering if The Punisher was the main character. Bah, this is so frustrating!

I don't think it was a SHIELD book. It may have been a spiderman title but it definitely wasn't a Spidey story...

FOUND IT!!!!

KevanG, that comicvine website is brilliant. I searched for Fury/Punisher appearances and came across...

Killpower/Motormouth!!

I think this is the issue that I was thinking of:

Although some of the other issues also look familiar. I'd love to see if I can get hold of them.

Thanks again

I have never even heard if that series. Glad you found it. I was looking a bit more into it anyway just to satisfy my own curiosity.
