Compound V
Compound V was a super serum that
was created by Joseph Vogelbaum and
was originally intended to create super
soldiers for the Third Reich. Fearing for
his life when he realized that the war was
lost for the Nazis, Vogelbaum escaped to
the United States with the help of Vought
American, who continued to fund his
experiments. Immediately after the
creation of Compound V, the corporation
nearly went bankrupt and eventually
regained their wealth by manufacturing
superhero teams such as The Seven by
injecting the fetuses of pregnant
volunteers with the drug. Although these
trials were successful, they were also
extremely costly, forcing Vought
American to inject future subjects with an
inferior version of the serum.
Furthermore, it appears that varying
traces of the Compound V formula were
passed down through familial bloodlines,
often resulting in the births of natural
born Supes with at least one super-
powered parent. Contrary to the TV
