Role in the series[]
During World War II, Strucker served as a lieutenant to the Red Skull. After the war, he became the leader of HYDRA.
At some point, Wolfgang von Strucker was captured and jailed in the Vault. Grim Reaper tried to free him, but they were foiled by Nick Fury and Maria Hill, and captured.
Later, the Vault experienced a massive power outage releasing all of the inmates. Strucker and Grim Reaper escaped and returned to HYDRA.
The two were at a HYDRA meeting when Baron Zemo appeared. Zemo was the founder and initially the leader of HYDRA, and thought that he return as such. They refused and Zemo tried to take by force, until he was informed that Captain America was alive and so set out to defeat the World War II hero himself.
HYDRA tried to make a deal with A.I.M. to make a powerful cube. However, A.I.M. claimed they could not do anything and gave back the money HYDRA sent them. Knowing M.O.D.O.K. was lying, Strucker got HYDRA into conflict with A.I.M., and the Black Widow, a double agent in Strucker's forces, told it to the Avengers to stop both factions.
During the conflict, Captain America and Strucker touched the cube at the same time, but the clash of wills made the cube not work, so Strucker thought it didn't work at all. He was subsequently arrested with M.O.D.O.K. and the surviving HYDRA and A.I.M. soldiers.
