John Garrett first appeared inElektra: Assassin #2 (September 1986), and was created byFrank Miller andBill Sienkiewicz.
John Garrett worked for theCIA and went through special covert training.[1] In 1961,Leonardo da Vinci invited Garrett to the Pieta base in Rome 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. Garrett approved the idea of using the power source to run the rejuvenations chambers found by another team. He was present when the chambers were stolen by Russian soldiers led by Victor Uvarov and Dassiev, who nearly kill him.[2]
Garrett has gotten in trouble with the law and ended up in different prisons. After his times in each prison, Garrett was recruited to work forS.H.I.E.L.D., with his criminal records mysteriously vanishing.[3]
Garrett is later converted into a cyborg with a cybernetic right hand.[4] He once collaborated with Elektra to fight theHand. Due to Garrett going haywire, Elektra places him in stasis, where he thinks that he is thePresident of the United States.[5] He is later freed by agents ofSnakeroot and reinstated into S.H.I.E.L.D.[6]
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 natural. 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, speed, stamina, durability, regeneration, and agility.
An alternate universe variant of John Garrett fromEarth-1610 appears inUltimate Hawkeye #2. This version is a human S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.[7]
