John Garrett first appeared inElektra: Assassin #2 (September 1986), and was created byFrank Miller andBill Sienkiewicz.
John Garrett previously worked for theCIA and went through special covert training.[1] In 1961,Leonardo da Vinci invited Garrett to be a member of the Great Wheel. Leonardo sent Garrett, Vasili Dassiev, Shoji Soma, andDaniel Whitehall toGiza to acquire a power source from aBrood vessel after destroying the Brood inside.[2]
After being sent to prison several times, Garrett is recruited to work forS.H.I.E.L.D. while his criminal records mysteriously vanish. He serves inLibya with agent Chastity McBryde. McBryde discovers that there are no records of Garrett, but is swiftly transferred to deal with a case inVenezuela, resulting in her complaint not reachingNick Fury.[3]
At some point in time, Garrett is equipped with a cybernetic right hand.[4] Three years after the Libya mission, Garrett is sent to San Concepcion to investigate the assassination of its president, Carlos Huevos. Garrett confronts Elektra, who causes an explosion that greviously wounds him. Garrett is recovered by ExTechOp and converted into a cyborg, leaving 80% of his body mechanical.[5]
Garrett later returns to S.H.I.E.L.D. under the supervision of Nick Fury and Siege.[6] During theDark Reign storyline, Garrett is shown to have retired. However, he is called back into action by Nick Fury to investigate Seth Water, a former agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. who is suspected of being a double agent.[7][8] Waters is later discovered to have been a double agent forLeviathan.[9]
John Garrett is a trained agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and a skilled marksman. As a cyborg, approximately 80% of his body is replaced with S.H.I.E.L.D. cybernetics with only his head and a few of his organs still being organic. He has plastic skin and metal alloy bones, with his muscular system consisting of a combination of pneumatics, hydraulics, and internal electrical generators. His cyborg body grants him enhanced strength, durability, and agility.
An alternate universe version of John Garrett fromEarth-1610 appears inUltimate Hawkeye #2. This version is a human S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.[10]
