(Saint George#2) - In Turkey, two rogue drug dealers stumbled into a confrontation with Michael Devlin when they kidnapped an acquaintance of his. One of them was blinded in the struggle. Fumbling about, he inadvertently opened a door that unleashed Shreck. Shreck slew the man who had opened the door, and then enquired of the surviving drug dealer as to what had happened. The man started to describe Michael Devlin, but Shreck told him not to bother, since through the expediency of removing his eye and popping it in his own socket, Shreck was able to recall an image of Michael Devlin.

Recognizing Devlin as a member of the Order of Saint George, and aware of his identity, Shreck set out to prevent Devlin from leaving Turkey. To that end, he killed a pilot, stole his hand, and caused a plane crash on the runaway at the Turkish airport. This prevented Devlin from taking a plane, so he took a train to Paris.

A representative of Shreck saw Devlin on the train and tried to persuade him not to get on. Devlin refused, and Shreck disposed of his lackey. Later, Shreck confronted Devlin in his compartment. Horrified at the sight of Shreck, Devlin ran to the compartment of his traveling companions Barnabbas and Tony. They closed and locked the door, but Shreck penetrated through it. Devlin donned his armor, smashed open the window, and climbed to the roof of the train with Tony. However, Shreck then pierced his hand through the ceiling of the cabin. Devlin managed to sever one of Shreck's hands, but, unfazed, Shreck simply replaced it with a spare he carried with him; Ripley Weaver's metal hand.

Shreck again pursued Devlin and Tony. He smacked Devlin off the top of the train, and thinking he had killed him, set out to get Tony. He confronted Tony just as the latter had reached another car of the train. However, Devlin had actually survived, and managed to tie chains around Shreck's legs, fastening Shreck to the car of the train he was on. Using his staff, Devlin then blasted the car of the train Shreck was on so that it separated from the rest of the train. However, Shreck grabbed for the rail of the car Devlin and Tony were on, and refused to let go. Though he held on with all of his power, Shreck could not resist the force of the other train pulling him in the other direction, which tore his legs off.

This did not kill Shreck, who managed to crawl on his hands onto the car Devlin and Tony were on, making one last attempt to get Devlin. However, Devlin swatted him away with his staff. Shreck, who usually avoided any feelings about his victims, felt such humiliation and shame upon his humbling defeat that he swore to get revenge on Devlin...who had just made things personal.

(Saint George#4) - Shreck met with Dirk Ravenscore in a graveyard. The lackey Sapir went looking for replacement legs for Shreck as the assassin discussed terms with Dirk. Shreck told Ravenscore that he would not serve as the assassin for the Ravenscore family until he had settled up with Devlin, and that he would seek the permission of Doctor Zero to do so.

(Doctor Zero#5) - Doctor Zero faced Marid, a Shadow who could project illusions, take on an intangible form, as well as connect himself to computer systems. Doctor Zero, investigating a scientist killed by Marid, brought the remaining body parts to Shreck. The scientist had burned to death, so his cornea was melted and his auditory canal charred, but Shreck did his best to relive what had happened through them. Shreck then asked for permission to pursue Michael Devlin, but Doctor Zero did not want to immediately give an answer.

Doctor Zero and Shreck investigated the launch of a rocket that Marid had sought to stow away on to escape Earth. As Doctor Zero and Marid fought, Shreck severed the hand off of a corpse of an operator of the rocket, thus gaining the knowledge as to how to defeat Marid. Telling the launch system to simulate a power loss situation, this caused the system to increase power levels to the computer system, which caught Marid, who had connected himself to the launch computer system, by surprise. He reverted to solid form. However, Marid then bedazzled Doctor Zero with pleasant illusions. Shreck observing this, took action by removing his eye, replacing it with that of a marksman, producing a gun, and shooting Marid.

Shreck then went back to the tower and caused the blast-off countdown to resume. Doctor Zero then threw the weakened Marid underneath the rocket, so that he lay below where the blast-off flame would come out. At the last two seconds, Shreck caused the countdown to stop. Marid, relieved, ejaculated "Allah be...Allah be...." thinking he was saved, but then Shreck reinitiated the countdown again. Marid burned to death.

After this, Doctor Zero informed Shreck that he could stalk Michael Devlin, but not kill him unless he informed Doctor Zero ahead of time. Zero then remarked this was unlike Shreck's standard business practices, and Shreck agreed, saying this one was strictly for pleasure.

(Saint George#6) - Shreck went to Shade's Haunt, a Shadow drinking establishment. He went to a table where the Shadow low-lifes Lenard, Skigger, and Fachan were sitting. Shreck asked Fachan to leave, and enquired of Lenard and Skigger's encounters with Michael Devlin.

 (St. George#7) - Shreck learned of Devlin's destination--Nicaragua--from the unwitting Father Carew.

(Critical Mass#2/1) - Picking through the body parts of the dead of a Nicaraguan town that Michael Devlin had just made his way through, Shreck took the eyeball of one of the people he had killed. On his way out, he made sure to take care of his guide...

(Critical Mass#3/2) - Tracking Devlin to a bar, Shreck confronted him. Devlin's friend Skinwalker shot his arm with a poisoned dart, but Shreck simply ripped off the arm and replaced it with another's. Devlin jumped to action, but the bar was severely smashed from the battle. While the others ran, Shreck merely stood in the bar while it came crashing to the ground. Skinwalker and Barnabbas, who was also in Devlin's party, tried their best to buy Devlin time to escape, and Skinwalker even shot Shreck in the eye with another poison dart. However, when Shreck got his hands on them, they were easily taken care of. Interrupting a beautiful scene between Devlin and Patty Richardson, Shreck and Devlin continued their battle. Devlin was well on his way to taking care of Shreck when Patty fell down a large hole in the ground. Devlin ran over to save her, but had to take off his armor to fit in to save her. After doing so, was ambushed and quickly taken out by Shreck. The next morning, Shreck crucified Devlin to a large tree.

(Critical Mass#4 - BTS) - Devlin remained staked to that tree.

(Critical Mass#5/1) - Unable to kill Devlin due to Zero's orders, Shreck simply left him to the jungle and went off to find a new eye. Finding some parts and a carriage from a local merchant, Shreck was prepared to go on his way when Devlin caught him by surprise. Shreck fought back as best he could, but his right arm was broken. Devlin knocked Shreck over a waterfall, but even this wasn't enough to kill him. Their battle raged on until Devlin knocked him into a lake, where he was attacked by piranhas. Devlin tried his best to save him, but when he offered Shreck his arm, he could tell Shreck was taking him far too literally. Devlin let go and Shreck fell back into the lake where he was sunk beneath a pool of hungry fish. Devlin continued on his journey...

That evening, a group of human scavengers searched the area, and came across Shreck's skeleton.

One of the men was impressed: "I know a man who'll give his right arm for these gold fillings!"

Shreck suddenly leapt at the man saying, "I can appreciate that pricing structure!"

As Shreck did what he does best, he thought to himself, "These are fellow entrepreneurs...after a sort. As such, I will attempt to make it clear to them that this is not the nightmare it is about to seem--that it is, instead, an investment opportunity in the rebuilding of a major corporation.
Perhaps they will even listen--before their screams grow so loud as to prevent them form hearing anything else--ever again...
Unless, of course, I take their ears..."

(Critical Mass#7/2) - Shreck, still very much alive, met up with Patty Richardson again and told her of Michael Devlin's heroism, and that he was also still living. Shreck attempted to get to know her better (He hit on her), but she wasn't interested.

(OHotMU Horror 2005) - Shreck somehow traveled to Earth-616 and established himself as Terror.

(Terror Inc.#1-5 (fb) - BTS) - Terror was hired to slay Roger Barbatos, a munitions dealer who had been supplying a larger country with the means to maintain power over several smaller countries. Several of these third world nations formed a consortium to hire Terror. Barbatos, however, had mad a deal with the demon Beelzeboul, such that he could not be killed.
Unaware of this demonic pact, Terror kept trying--hemlock garnishing his salad...sixty thousand volts through his Mercedes' mobile phone...and enough knife thrusts to dull every blade in his collection...all to no avail.

(Terror Inc.#1) - Failing to assassinate Barbatos, a dirty weapons dealer, yet again, this time by slitting his throat, Terror made a quick exit through a window of his high-rise when several of his agents came to his aid. After crashing into a parked car, Terror restocked himself on some guards Barbatos sent down to clean up. Later, Terror looked through the new additions to his collection along with his friend, Ms. Primo, on a yacht. Through one of the eyes, he saw that Barbatos' pact with Beelzeboul. Terror went to visit Rekrab, an expert in the paranormal for more information on the demon he was dealing with. Rekrab told him that Beelzeboul was in fact Daimon Hellstrom's father, a demon calling himself Satan just for the ego boost. According to Rekrab, Hellstrom would be of no help to Terror, since he had transferred his Darksoul into a serpent, however, Beelzeboul had another son, Mikal Drakonmegas, a well known magician. Finding the temple where some weird religious types were keeping the serpent, Terror murdered one of the priests attending to it and the snake itself, stealing it's jaw and taking it for his own.

(Terror Inc.#2) - While Mikal Drakonmegas slept, Terror snuck into his bedroom and bit him with the serpent's fangs, effectively transferring the Darksoul to him. Drakonmegas was later holding a show for reporters at Alcatraz, trying to debunk his former colleagues in his mission against magic. When the Darksoul kicked in, Terror helped Drakonmegas escape the cops and was taking him back to the mainland on a boat when Hellfire emerged from within him.

(Terror Inc.#3) - Terror calmed Drakonmegas with the help from his mother's hand, then explained his situation with Barbatos to him. Hellfire agreed to help, when shots rang out at them from a helicopter. Terror easily defeated Barbatos' assassin and took his arm, giving him and Hellfire an escape route. At the cemetery where Hellfire's mother was laid to rest, Terror dug her up and took her eye. Terror watched the past through her eye and narrated her life to Hellfire, when he suddenly noticed they had a demonic visitor...

(Terror Inc.#4) - Hellfire and Terror waded their way through a group of demons sent after them by Beelzeboul, but walked out basically unharmed (Well, Terror lost his eye, right arm and legs, but that's okay for him). Terror then told him that after he had gotten an audience with Beelzeboul, he would take the Darksoul from him, which Hellfire gratefully accepted. Having Hellfire kill a surviving demon that attacked them, its body was teleported back to Beelzeboul's Hell, along with Hellfire and Terror. Dr. Strange then arrived, just too late to stop them from continuing their journey, though he promised he'd make Terror realize what he had done at a future date. In Hell, Terror found one of the demons who had attacked him earlier, Vulkanus, was still alive, and possessed the hand of Hellfire's mother, which he had taken from Terror. The demon gloated to his fellow demons, over exaggerating his prowess against Terror, until Terror himself showed up to take back what was his.

(Terror Inc.#5) - Vulkanus started with an advantage, but Terror broke off two of the spikes from his cheeks, and stabbed the monster in the eyes, then took back Cassandra Drakonmegas' hand. With the hand back, Terror finished telling Hellfire the story of his mother's life, and that she had actually vanquished Beelzeboul back to hell to keep him from getting her son, though he killed her before he left. Confronted by Beelzeboul, Terror bit into Hellfire's arm again with the serpent's teeth, and took the Darksoul back, delivering him to his father. In exchange for this, Beelzeboul gave Terror what he wanted all along, his contract with Barbatos, and Terror went on his way to return to Earth. Deciding this was bad business practice, Terror returned, along with a set of wings he borrowed from a demon. Making his way back to Mikal Drakonmegas, he bit into him and returned the Darksoul to Hellfire, who used the same knife his mother used to vanquish Beelzeboul again. Using Beelzeboul's death as a portal, Hellfire and Terror returned to Earth, where Dr. Strange gave Terror a good lecture on opening up portals to Hell dimensions. Later, Terror found where Barbatos was hiding, and ripped the contract in front of him, causing him to feel all the executions Terror had attempted at him all at once.

(Daredevil I#305) - Terror was contacted by Deragon, a Las Vegas mobster who wanted an in to the Dead Man's Hand, which was a meeting to divide up the possessions of the then dethroned Kingpin. Deragon and his men were unable and unwilling to pay Terror's high fees.

(Daredevil I#308) - Still in Vegas, Terror gave Daredevil information regarding the Yakuza.

(Daredevil I#309) - After Wolfgang von Strucker had slain his son, Werner, Terror showed up to claim one of his eyes. Terror again met with Daredevil and granted him further information, in exchange for his "friendship," should he ever need a friend in New York City--meaning in case he ever got on the bad side of any of the many superhumans concentrated there.

(Wolverine II#58-59) - Wolverine sought Terror's aid to gain information from Lance, a dead man who had been allied with the eco-terrorist Ecotage. Terror learned what he could from the eyes of the dead man, but he wound up getting involved with the conflict when Monkey Wrench and the rest of Ecotage--Pick Axis, Paul, and Bunyan--showed up. Paul and Bunyan used a two man saw to cut Terror in half. Terror replaced his missing parts with the legs of a martial artist, James J. Chan, and helped fight off Ecotage.
Terror helped Wolverine safely remove an explosive spike jammed into his chest by Monkey Wrench. He then assisted in the search for Alice Hoff, who had been kidnapped by Ecotage.

(Terror Inc.#6) - Hired to put a hit on crimelord Piranha Jones, Terror was interrupted by the Punisher. Losing focus of their target, the Punisher and Terror ended up battling each other in a gunfight, that ended with Terror missing some legs. The Punisher was shocked when Terror stole the legs of one of Jones' agents. The Punisher, deciding Terror deserves it as much as any other criminal, opened fire on him. Terror, however, decided to jump off the building onto a passing bus, escaping. Stopping at a library, Terror took a pair of eyes from a librarian and studied up on the Jones case via the library's computer system, then got more information from Ms. Primo on the trio of women who helped Piranha Jones get into town, mob princesses "Babyface" Ann Repucci, Vita "the Headcutter" Buchetta, and "Cruella" Cortese.

(Terror Inc.#7) - A gunfight erupted between the mob women and Piranha's people at a local mall. Terror and the Punisher became involved, and Terror even saved Piranha from the Punisher's vengeance. Later, the Punisher arrived at Piranha's mansion, but Terror was already there. Terror informed the Punisher that Mr. Jones had met his pets in his swimming pool, but the Punisher decided that Terror was guilty too, and kicked him in as well. After the Punisher left, Piranha Jones looked out from his hiding spot, as Terror popped out of the pool, covered in piranhas. Terror apologized for killing Jones' pets, as he had taken enough poison that it seeped through his skin, and on their first bite, they died (He'd had bad experience with piranha in the past). Jones understood and admitted to Terror that he was the one who hired him... To kill him. He knew the mob princesses were using him all along to get a name for themselves, and with Terror's help, he would frame them for his murder and they would go to jail for a long time. Jones made some modifications to the contract with Terror, dictating that a large majority of the money would now be going to charity, and while he handed over Terror's payment, a one dollar bill, he was taken care of.

(Punisher / Captain America: Blood & Glory#3) - In the Central American nation of Medisuela, Terror gets involved in a conspiracy to create war started by the US Attorney General and General Miguel Alfredo Navatilas. Terror first took a dying soldier's eye, which told him that Captain America and the Punisher survived the conspiracy's attempts to kill them. He then reported this to General Navatalas, who attempted to force further information out of Terror. Terror defeated the General's men and departed.

Later, after the General was killed, Terror assisted Cap and the Punisher, giving them information regarding the conspiracy gleaned from the dead General's organs. He made sure to tell them that he was not doing them any favors, but rather accumulating debts.

(Terror Inc.#8) - Visiting a man on death row--Buddy Henry, Terror was bought to take care of the man's family for him... Not that way! Literally to care for them. After the execution, Terror took his eye and arm, and went off. Finding the man's ex-mob buddies stalking his wife and kid, Terror sprung into action, but the wife was still caught. Tracking the mobsters back to their base, Terror rescued the man's wife and made sure they wouldn't be bugging her ever again. On Christmas night, Terror returned, leaving his pay... Well, 70% of it, at least, on the man's family's table.

(Terror Inc.#9) - Terror, with a little help from Ms. Primo, was able to steal a body from a police escort (With lots o' casualties, of course) Later, he performed a little autopsy on the body to get a better idea of the murder. Returning the woman's dead body to her father, the man buys his revenge services. Due to the wounds being inflicted by a tri-bladed weapon, Terror began to worry that the murderer may have been an acquaintance of his: Wolverine. Going to a specialist named Boneyard, Terror was able to acquire his own clawed arm, and he set out on his job. Tracking Logan to a little diner, Terror said his hellos, then shot him with a shotgun. Wolverine easily got the better of this fight, and Terror was forced to escape, stealing a truck. On his way out, he made sure to run over Wolverine's motorcycle, which was almost definitely not a good idea. Wolverine jumped onto the back of the truck, sliced the back tire with his claws, forcing it to crash near a funeral home. Terror crawled inside, but Wolverine tore him apart. Terror was lucky enough to escape... Into his own cremation.

(Terror Inc.#10) - Figuring Wolverine wasn't gonna just let him out, Terror set an electro-magnetic mine, blowing the machine up and granting him his escape. Dragging himself into the morgue, Terror had his pick of body parts to rebuild with, but made sure to repair his precious left arm. Coming face to face with the newly healed Wolverine, Terror offered... An apology, which Logan accepted. Finding the group of Hydra agents who had set Wolverine up posing as SHIELD agents, Wolverine and Terror got their revenge. The woman's father then revealed that he was actually a Hydra agent named Braniff, and that he was just trying to redeem himself in the organization by framing Wolverine for the girls (who was revealed not to be his daughter) murder. But being face to face with the two assassins, Braniff decided the easier way out was suicide.

(Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. II#46) - While fighting with a band of warring drugs czars at the Griffith Park Observatory in Los Angeles, Terror's right arm and leg were filled with bullets by one of the gunmen. Terror killed the man with a knife, then put on a "spare" arm from his handbag, and tore off the gunman's right leg to replace his. Just then, he was attacked by an assault team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, and incapacitated with electrical cables. He was brought to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier, where Fury questioned him on the death of Werner von Strucker. Terror had them attach one of Werner's ears to him, and he identified the cause of death as being the Death Spore Virus, contracted from his father, Baron Wolfgang von Strucker. After receiving the information, Fury had Terror released.

(Infinity Crusade#6) - Terror stood by helplessly as the Goddess' cleansing flame appeared to consume all life on Earth.

(Terror Inc.#11) - Hellfire was duped into assisting Brother Randi in locating the Carnal Serpent. Due to their past enmity, Hellfire attacked Terror before eventually convincing Terror to take the job of searching for the Carnal Serpent (Terror thought to use the item to locate the path to salvation). Finding out the only way to call the Carnal Serpent was to combine the Vatsayana's Tryst, Terror set out to do just that. First by taking an arrow from a dead man named Bo Ting, then by ambushing Luke Cage on a train ride, taking the section of the Tryst that he possessed. Terror then made a surprise appearance at a private dinner Silver Sable was attending. A big surprise, thanks to the helicopter he crashed through the roof.

(Terror#1) - After spending the last 6 months without a case, Terror was hired by alleged government agent Roger Harper (actually a member of the terrorist organization Death Reign) to eliminate Roy Montgomery, the leader of the US government black ops organization Mother, allegedly for being a mole and costing many agents their lives. As Montgomery apparently met with the terrorist group Death Reign, Terror tore off one of Montgomery's agent's heads and replaces his own to help infiltrate them. Terror was discovered and badly shot up before reaching Montgomery when the others saw his metal-encased hand. Terror nonetheless fought past them and confronted Montgomery, who has no idea who Harper is. Sparks, a member of Death Reign, killed Montgomery (framing Terror for the assassination), and then Terror is assaulted anew. Terror used a grenade that took most of his assailants out, but Sparks decapitated him and prepared to dump him in molecular acid.
