Spawn history: Military history and death
Al Simmons is a highly decorated African American Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Marine Corps. He later joins the United States Secret Service and becomes a highly decorated member, most notably for saving the President in an assassination attempt, which leads to his promotion to the CIA. In the CIA, he is recruited into a special division known as the U.S. Security Group, a high-level task force with jurisdiction in all domestic and foreign situations.
Al questions many of the actions of his agency, particular of its director Jason Wynn, believing that certain missions involved the unnecessary sacrifice of innocent civilians. Wynn and Simmons begin to butt heads more often and Simmons plans to resign. He returns home, and beats Wanda in his blind rage at Wynn, something that would rest heavily on Simmons' thoughts and haunt him later.
Upon learning of Al's resignation, Wynn orders an assassin (initially Youngblood's Chapel, but later retconned to be Jessica Priest after arguments with Rob Liefeld) to murder Simmons. Simmons is sent to Hell, and makes a deal with Malebolgia: Al would be reborn a Hellspawn, a lieutenant in Hell's army, if he is allowed to see his wife one final time.
