History:
(Sable & Fortune#1 - BTS) - Sobczak was a rather new communication specialist in
Silver Sable's Wild Pack roster. He was
trained by the training coordinator like many other members of the Wild Pack.
He shifted his loyalty toward a criminal
organization, secretly built within the Wild Pack itself, created by Andreas
Vadas. Vadas was the second-in-command at Silver Sable
International. He followed his own agenda, using the resources of the
Wild Pack.
(Sable & Fortune#1 (fb) - BTS) - Vadas dispatched Sobczak and Joannes Boros, another Wild Pack member, to France where they kidnapped Jasper Angevine. They injected a serum to Angevine. The serum transformed Angevine into a sleeper assassin used in a trap set up for Silver Sable.
(Sable & Fortune#1) - Silver Sable and the Wild Pack failed
a rescue mission in Hamburg, to free a kidnapped girl.
The day after, in a personnel check, Sable was told
that Sobczak didn't report for duty.
Sable acknowledged that many things were very wrong
in the Wild Pack, so she dissolved it, dismissing all the personnel.
(Sable & Fortune#1 (fb) - BTS) - Sobczak and Boros
continued their mission, but they were actually expendable to Vadas. In
fact Vadas' true goal was to kill Silver Sable and to show to Mr.
Albasini Sable's death by Angevine's hands. Vadas left some hints to
Sable, in order to lure her where Angevine was.
Sobczak set up a little spider-robot to video-transmit
what was happening in the hideout, for Vadas' purposes. He also set up an
anti-intrusion automatic lethal response system.
(Sable &Fortune#1) - As
planned, Silver Sable found the house in Toulon where Sobczak and Boros
were holding the prisoner. What Vadas and the two agents did not foresee
was the help of Dominic Fortune. The two agents were surprised by Silver
Sable's assault, but Sobczak was knocked out by Dominic Fortune.
Nonetheless, their part had been played, they had lured Sable near
Angevine.
(Sable & Fortune#2) - Sobczak and Boros were still unconscious when Fortune and Sable knocked Angevine down, after he tried to kill Sable.
Comments: Created by Brendan Cahill and Laurenn McCubbin.
Sobczak's proficiency was comm/op-tech.
Actually he didn't even have the cold blood to react to Silver Sable
door-knocking. So, I suppose that his primary task was to setup all the
necessary devices to record the events regarding the serum-made weapon
(Angevine) and the prey (Silver Sable) for the profit of Vadas and
Albasini (head of the terrorists).
