he ultimate warrior. Sabretooth is driven by a psychotic need to hunt, fight and kill; previous marks have included both humans and mutants.
As a special operative for the Central Intelligence Agency, Creed frequently worked in partnership with the mysterious loner known only as Logan. Codenamed Sabretooth and Wolverine, both were products of the mysterious Weapon X project -- a government-sponsored initiative to breed the ultimate team of super-soldiers. In addition, the Weapon X scientists implanted false memories in their subjects for reasons that remain unclear. Uneasy allies at best, Creed and Logan had a falling out during a mission in Berlin; the two have been mortal enemies ever since.
Creed fathered a son with the sinister mutant shape-shifter called Mystique. Ironically, their son grew up to become a staunch anti-mutant advocate, establishing the organization known as the Friends of Humanity. Graydon Creed is currently running for president of the United States.
In Sabretooth's first recorded exploit as a criminal, he kidnapped the celebrated lawyer Jeryn Hogarth. Defeated by Iron Fist, a superhuman martial artist, Sabretooth next chose to run with a pack: the Marauders, a team of assassins employed by the mysterious Mr. Sinister, an obsessed geneticist working to create the world's most powerful mutant. Helping carry out the massacre of the Morlocks, an underground community of mutant outcasts.
Creed has worked off and on for both Sinister and Magneto over the years. He was a part of Magento's Brotherhood of Mutants when he once again encountered Wolverine -- now a member of the X-Men, an outlaw team of mutant heroes -- while trying to install a mutant making machine in the Statue of Liberty. The plan failed and the Brotherhood disbanded leaving Creed to take freelance jobs. |
