Wolfgang von Strucker, more commonly known as Baron Strucker, is a prominent villain in the Marvel Universe, primarily associated with Hydra. Born in Bavaria, Germany, to a Prussian Junker family, Strucker embraced Nazi ideology and rose to power during World War II.

His ruthlessness and strategic mind quickly made him a valuable asset to the Third Reich. However, he secretly began laying the groundwork for his own organization, Hydra, envisioning a world ruled through fear and absolute power. He amassed considerable wealth and influence before Germany's defeat.

Following the war, Strucker went underground, consolidating Hydra's global network. He employed advanced technology, including the Death Spore virus, and recruited individuals with exceptional skills or extremist views. He faced opposition from Captain America and other heroes, surviving numerous encounters despite his apparent demise on several occasions.

A skilled tactician, hand-to-hand combatant, and swordsman, Strucker also benefited from scientific enhancements, slowing his aging process and granting him limited regenerative abilities. His unwavering dedication to Hydra's cause and his relentless pursuit of world domination have solidified his position as a persistent and formidable threat in the Marvel Universe.
