First Appearance
Taskmaster #1 (2010)

The Org is a S.H.I.E.L.D. front run by Mercedes Merced, a former S.H.I.E.L.D agent, who employs Taskmaster as a field agent. Using confiscated S.H.I.E.L.D. weaponry, vehicles and any number of devices, Mercedes gathered invaluable intelligence for Nick Fury on several criminal organizations. These secret societies eventually banded together in the Minions' International Liberation Front under the leadership of the Red Shirt, and their primary goal was to find and take over the Org. Forging an Org bounty on Taskmaster enabled Red Shirt to manipulate the mercenary into finding his handlers, and once the Org's secret base was found M.I.L.F. attacked. Taskmaster discovered he was duped and defeated the schemers, allowing Mercedes to escape. Fury explained the Org's history to Steve Rogers, but Rogers still wanted to bring Mercedes in for crimes she may have committed as a rogue agent. Mercedes refused to turn herself in but promised the Org would continue its work, supplying Rogers with the information she used to deliver to Fury.
