Character
Nick Fury, whose full name is Nicholas Joseph Fury, is one of the most important characters in the Marvel universe, known for being the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Division). Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, Fury made his first appearance in "Sgt. Fury and his Howling Commandos" #1 in 1963, as a sergeant during World War II.
However, his character later developed into a spy and secret agent in superhero comics. Fury is known for his leadership, strategic skills, and espionage expertise, as well as his iconic eye patch.
Under his leadership, S.H.I.E.L.D. becomes the primary agency for defending against global threats, both human and extraterrestrial. In the comics and movies, Fury is the architect behind the formation of the Avengers, bringing together Earth's most powerful heroes to face dangers that no hero could handle alone.
