Feeling that conventional police tactics and SWAT teams were ineffective against some superhuman criminals, Lieutenant Stone proposed a program to train and equip dedicated police officers to specifically deal with those types of menaces. Dubbed Code: Blue, their first assignment was to take down theWrecking Crew. Surrounded by police while holding a hostage, theWrecker attempted to use his newfound skill withAsgardian magic to find the rock trollUlik, but his inexperience gave Code: Blue enough time to secure positions around the building and attack. The organized strike enabled the officers to free the hostage while slowing the Wrecking Crew down. Eventually, the Wrecker used his crowbar to teleport his allies away leaving Code: Blue to score their first mission as a win.[2]
Code: Blue later traveled to Asgard itself with the help ofEric Masterson to aid in repelling an invasion.[3]
