* HidingTheHandicap: Her default hairstyle wears her hair over one eye. This was justified in earlier stories, though it no longer has an explanation. The concept was that the upper right side of Viper's face was scared and disfigured, causing her to use her hair to hide her imperfection. For a while it was even unclear whether she had two eyes, or only one functioning eye and one blind or missing eye. Over the last couple of decades, the scars were retconned away. Viper now has a perfect face, two undamaged eyes, and perfect vision.

A new Madame Hydra, Elisa Sinclair, debuted in ''ComicBook/CaptainAmericaSteveRogers'' #1 (July 2016), created by Nick Spencer and Jesús Saiz. She originally appeared to be a character inserted in Steve Rogers' memories of his childhood by the sentient Cosmic Cube Kobik to retroactively turn him into a Hydra double-agent. However, she resurfaced in the present, having taken up the mantle of Madame Hydra, claiming to be a powerful ancient being of great powers. She took upon collecting a new Hydra High Council, which includes Viper.

* ActuallyADoombot: Viper had an out-of-character appearance in a storyline featured in ''Punisher War Journal'' #45-47 (August-October, 1992)., where she served as an ally to ComicBook/{{Daredevil}}, Nomad, and ComicBook/ThePunisher. A year later, Gregory Wright wrote a story where it was revealed that Viper has been using look-alike "Pit-Vipers" to act in her name. The "Viper" appearing in the Punisher storyline was a rogue Pit-Viper with her own agenda.
* AxCrazy: Of all the things that she is, she is ''not'' sane.
* ArchEnemy: To ComicBook/SpiderWoman (Jessica Drew) due to Jessica being raised by Hydra and possibly becoming the next Madame Hydra. One story revealed Jessica to be the Viper's daughter, though it was later retconned that some magical force was toying with their minds. Viper assumed that it was Jessica who messed with her mind and set out to destroy her "daughter". Twenty years later, Viper tried to coerce Jessica (actually the Skrull Veranke) into an alliance, and the story hinted that Viper still viewed Jessica as the closest thing she had to a family.
* BadassNormal: She (''usually'') possesses no superhuman powers. But her strength, speed, reflexes, agility, dexterity, coordination, balance and endurance are on the order of an Olympic athlete. She is a great swordswoman and even greater markswoman with most long range weapons, and has extensive training in hand-to-hand combat.
* TheBaroness: TropeCodifier. In fact, the Baroness from ''Franchise/GIJoe'' is actually inspired from her. When Hasbro approached Marvel about doing a ''G.I. Joe'' comic book, they simply dusted off an unused proposal for a ComicBook/NickFury vs. HYDRA series and changed the names. Thus HYDRA became COBRA and the Viper became the Baroness. The only significant difference between the characters is the color of their leather bodysuits and hair; black for the Baroness, green for Madame Hydra.
* BigBad: As the head of Hydra she counts whenever they are involved.
* BlemishedBeauty: She is quite beautiful, save for scarring over the upper right side of her face (which she usually hides behind her bangs).
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Despite Viper having a tendency to mind-control her opponents, she often finds herself mind-controlled or manipulated by other villains with this power. She has had her mind tampered with by the Elder Gods Set and Chthon, by the immortal witch Morgan Le Fay, and (to a lesser point) by the illusions of Mastermind. They have all used Viper as a convenient weapon for their agendas, sending her against their enemies. Even her memories have been altered at times.
* BulletProofVest: Viper is deadly, but she is still a normal human being, and she can be taken down by a single bullet. Her various uniforms incorporate kevlar to keep her body safe. Given that she never wears protective helmets, it is unclear why her opponents do not simply aim for her head.
* CameBackWrong: In ''Secret Warriors #12'', Viper is kidnapped by the mysterious Leviathan group, who are determined to find out the location of a mysterious box that both she and the current Madame Hydra (the Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine that has replaced Viper) procured from the Yashidas. Madame Hydra arrived at the Leviathan headquarters and offered the box to its leader, much to Viper's dismay. Madame Hydra then shot Viper to death. However, when Hydra arrived, the Hive resurrected her, giving her tentacles that stemmed from her head, and she renames herself Madame Hydra.
* CombatPragmatist: While perfectly capable of taking out opponents in a straight fight, Viper's strategies tend to rely on ambush tactics, deception, and use of drugs, gases, and poisons. She knocked out Thor by having him inhale one of her drugs. When she wanted to take over the relatively powerful Serpent Society, she had a group of villains infiltrate the organization and then attacked when nobody expected it. Most of the Serpents were caught in their civilian clothes, their gym clothes, or their bathrobes and underwear, without access to their uniforms and weapons. When she wanted to take out the X-Men, she simply poisoned their tea and send most of the team to the hospital.
* DarkActionGirl: A really combat-efficient female villain.
* DatingCatwoman: She is Wolverine's ''ex-wife''; she blackmailed him into it, and in turn he got the divorce by refusing to give her medical treatment otherwise. It is implied she had started to develop real feelings for him.
* DependingOnTheWriter: For whatever reason, Brian Bendis consistently writes her as an anarcho-communist, rather than the unhinged lunatic most other writers prefer.
* EvilerThanThou: She has the rare distinction of being this to the Red Skull of all people from time to time simply because he views her sadistic schemes and planned massacres as so gratuitously awful with no apparent benefit for either of them other than just ForTheEvulz that he cannot tolerate them.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She may have cared about Wolverine at some point, and she definitely had feelings for the Silver Samurai. A Marvel Team-Up storyline from 1979 also mentions a months-long romantic affair between Viper and a Japanese terrorist leader called Ishiro Tagara. He found Viper when she was sick and weak from previous battles, nursed her back to health, worked to restore her sanity and confidence in her self, and showered her with love (which she found to be an unfamiliar experience). Tagara has not appeared since, and he is a rather obscure character.
** On a more family-oriented kind of love, a few stories have Viper still mourning over her half-forgotten parents (whose murder is the earliest memory she still has) and an unknown number of sisters (who she witnessed getting raped and discarded).
* ForTheEvulz: She usually has a greater goal in mind, but she isn't above committing mass murder or being disturbingly petty for shits and giggles.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Viper started out as a nameless orphan girl of obscure background. Unlike other villains such as Baron von Strucker and the Barons Zemo, she does not come from an old aristocratic family, did not inherit any wealth, and started out with no connections. She just struggled to survive. She passed her Hydra training with flying colors, due to being the most determined, ambitious, and aggressive of available recruits. She has used that drive to bring down states and organizations, to take over entire nations (such as Madripoor), and to terrorize heroes and villains alike.
* GreenAndMean: Her main color is green, and mean doesn't even begin to describe her.
* HidingTheHandicap: Her default hairstyle wears her hair over one eye. This was justified in earlier stories, though it no longer has an explanation. The concept was that the upper right side of Viper's face was scared and disfigured, causing her to use her hair to hide her imperfection. For a while it was even unclear whether she had two eyes, or only one functioning eye and one blind or missing eye. Over the last couple of decades, the scars were retconned away. Viper now has a perfect face, two undamaged eyes, and perfect vision.
* IHaveManyNames: Madame Hydra; Viper; dozens of aliases. Among her most prominent aliases are "Leona Hiss", the unimaginative "Mrs. Smith", and "Meriem Drew" (the true name of Spider-Woman's mother). She also once impersonated Black Mamba/Tanya Sealy of the Serpent Society and used Tanya's name and codename.
* {{Jerkass}}: The C-word would actually be the most accurate to describe her attitude and general behaviour.
* KickTheDog: Prone to it and proud of it. You know it's bad when the ''Red Skull'' thinks that her schemes were gratuitous with no apparent benefit for either of them. One of her plans involved blinding every person in the United States who stared at a television screen. Leaving millions blind and helpless, and causing the country to collapse in chaos. Red Skull found out about this plan. He was an American citizen by this point, and all his business investments were located in the United States. He realized that the country would collapse around him and that it was unlikely it would recover within his own lifetime. He did not want to experience this kind of world, so Red Skull set out to rescue the country from Viper.
* LegacyCharacter: The first Viper was a man, then Madame Hydra killed him and stole the name.
* ManipulativeBastard: She knows how to manipulate people.
* MightyWhiteyAndMellowYellow: Gender flipped. Viper is a European woman from Hungary, but her most enduring romantic and emotional relationship involved her and the Silver Samurai, a Japanese villain.
* MindControl: Has a tendency to do this with several heroes, turning them into her minions temporarily. Examples include the Punisher, Jean Grey, Psylocke, Rogue, Shadowcat, Tyger Tiger, and Yukio.
* MostCommonSuperPower: She has very buxom breasts.
* MsFanservice: Despite being evil, Viper is a beautiful woman with dark green hair and lipstick who wears a ''very'' form-fitting jumpsuit that accentuates her voluptuous yet toned body, buxom breasts, toned broad shoulders, and long toned legs.
* NebulousEvilOrganization: Usually associated with HYDRA, hence Madame Hydra. She has had a history of joining (and often taking over) other villainous organizations. She has joined the Serpent Squad, the Serpent Society, the Secret Empire, and the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club.
* NotAfraidToDie: While she struggles for her life as much as any other villain of the Marvel Universe, Viper reportedly has long ceased fearing death. She views death as a peaceful oblivion, and a great merciful void which she is tempted to embrace. And she would like for all humanity to embrace it as well. A few background profiles mention that Viper is an opium user, and that she both meditates and has opium dreams about death.
* OneSteveLimit: Enforced lethally when she decided to take on the name Viper. She murdered the original Viper and took over the Serpent Squad.
* OrphanageOfFear: Raised in one, ran by none other than Hydra.
-->'''Ophelia Sarkissian:''' We were orphans. Little girls, all alone. Hydra gave us a home. Eight great houses. Twelve girls to a house. And in the end, the '''most determined'''... the '''most ambitious'''... the '''most aggressive'''... That girl would be the Viper. All it cost was everything.
* PoisonousPerson: In her case it is intentional. Viper has modified her canine teeth into particularly sharp and elongated fangs. Her fangs contain a lethal and neurotoxic snake venom, to which she has developed an immunity. All she needs is to bite her opponents (preferably in their necks) and they are incapacitated or dying. A less often used trick, is coating her lipstick in poison. One touch of her lips and the victim is down for the count.
* PsychoForHire: When working for somebody else. It says something when ever the Red freaking Skull thinks you're too unstable.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She may [[AbortedArc or may not]] have been granted a supernatural lifespan by the demon Chthon, and have originally been a woman who died in 1931.
* RoguesGalleryTransplant: If she is not fighting Cap, she is probably fighting ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}, though she has tangled with most of Marvel's other heroes by now, and once believed she was the mother of the first ComicBook/SpiderWoman.
* {{Sadist}}: A psychological and physical sadist, who enjoys hurting people for the hell of it. Noticing a trend with Cap's rogues?
* SecondaryColorNemesis: She wears all-green clothes. She also dyes her hair green (its natural color is black), uses green lipstick, and green fingernail polish. Her eyes are also green, but this is their natural color.
** Averted in a few Uncanny X-Men stories from 2004-2005. Viper joins the Hellfire Club in the new position of White Princess (second-in-command to the White Queen). She discards her traditional green uniforms for white ones, to match her new position and to color-coordinate with White Queen Courtney Ross. Following this aborted arc, Viper returned to the green uniforms.
%% * TheSociopath: Has most of the requirements for Antisocial Personality Disorder.
* SpyCatsuit: Often wears a form-fitting catsuit.
* StrawNihilist: Her nihilism and tendency to spread death around her has made it hard for other villains to associate with her. Only the Red Skull has found it a charming tendency and pursued a relationship with her for a while. The relationship ended when the Skull found out Viper was using his resources to finance massacres with no apparent financial benefit for either of them.
* UnholyMatrimony: Had this with the Red Skull, even engaging in a TwoPersonPoolParty when they met.
* VillainBall: Sometimes she's managed to torpedo her own plans because she ''such'' a raging nutcase she can't help herself. One instance is during a scheme in ''Captain America'', when she steps out from where she's hiding solely to gloat at Cap having to fight a brainwashed Not-Ronald Reagan.
* WhipOfDominance: She is a [[TheBaroness authoritative, domineering and sadistic]] villainess who's famous for her deadly skill with a bullwhip. She often has other more technologically advanced weapons, but the whip is iconic to her character, if only because it gives her a sadistic/dominative aesthetic.

!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''Captain America: Sam Wilson'' #7 (May, 2016)
A HYDRA loyalist Steve Rogers created by Kobik, the sentient Cosmic Cube at the behest of the Red Skull.
----
* AssholeVictim: The Power Elite have him broken out of prison and then brutally murdered to make their claim that he and Steve Rogers are the same man easier to sell to the public. Their reasons for doing it might be villainous but it's still very satisfying to watch as Selene melts him alive.
* TheBadGuyWins: ''ComicBook/SecretEmpire'' begins with him successfully taking over the United States. It gets undone when he is defeated by his counterpart.
* BigBad: Of ''ComicBook/SecretEmpire'', having taking the role of Supreme HYDRA and masterminded the HYDRA takeover of the US which he rules over. He also oversees the hunt for the Cosmic Cube fragments.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Pretends to outwardly be the same old Steve everyone knows, loves and respects, while hiding his disdain for them, as he sets them up for a fall.
* BoomerangBigot: He very much dislikes, if not outright hates superhumans, despite technically being one himself.
* BreakThemByTalking: Undermines [[ComicBook/SunSpot Roberto da Costa]]'s confidence under the guise of a WhatTheHellHero speech, so he'll be less dangerous when the time comes.
* TheChessmaster: Well what do you expect from someone who inherited the strategic brilliance of Captain America?
* TheCorrupter: He manipulated Deadpool and ComicBook/ThePunisher into working for him as his top enforcers. He also manages to get some of the non-evil A.I.M. onto his side, and gets them to betray Roberto da Costa.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Despite being a ruthless KnightTemplar himself, he is utterly disgusted at the Red Skull's cruelty and sadism.
* EvilCounterpart: To the real Captain America.
* EvilDoppelganger: To Earth-616 Cap.
* FantasticRacism: He has very little regard for superhuman life, going so far as to facilitate concentration camps reserved for Inhumans.
* HeroKiller: He is responsible for the deaths of Jack Flag, Bruce Banner, Rick Jones, and Black Widow (though, her's was unintentional).
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Trusts his High Council[[note]]Madame Hydra, Baron Zemo, Viper, Arnim Zola, Kraken, Doctor Faustus, Hive, and Gorgon[[/note]] just because they all worked for HYDRA in the past. While most of them were fairly loyal to his cause, at least Doctor Faustus and Viper have tried to undermine him in some way.
* {{Hypocrite}}: He hates being compared to the Red Skull despite being an unrepentant mass-murderer. He even has the nerve to criticize democracy for being corrupt when his regime is so much worse.
* KnightTemplar: He uses whatever means necessary to "save" humanity, even cold-blooded murder.
* PoweredArmor: Towards the end of ''Secret Empire'', he sports one created by Zola using Stark tech.
* TheStarscream: He inherited the original Steve Rogers' hatred toward the Red Skull, but feigned loyalty to the latter out of caution for his stolen telepathy from Charles Xavier. When the Skull was stripped of his powers by the ComicBook/UncannyAvengers, he didn't hesitate to betray and kill him.
* UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: He wholeheartedly believes that HYDRA's ideology, or at least his interpretation of it, is the only way of ensuring peace.
* VillainousBreakdown: He has one when the completed Cosmic Cube disappears from his armor and Sam reveals his swear of allegiance to HYDRA was a trick. Then Kobik comes back and restores the Earth after he used his cube to change history so HYDRA won the war. Then Kobik brings out the restored mind of the real Captain America in a new body.
* VillainousFriendship: In his memories he had one with Helmut Zemo, until the latter breaks it off after his father's death. They resume after he captures Zemo and persuades him to his way of thinking.
* VillainProtagonist: He was the main Captain America for a while with the true Steve Rogers trapped in the Cosmic Cube. The series revolved around him passing himself off as the normal Cap while undermining the other heroes from behind the scenes.

!!! '''Alter Ego:''' Wolgang Von Strucker
!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''Sgt Fury and his Howling Commandos'' #5 (January, 1964)
The leader (and founder) of the NebulousEvilOrganisation HYDRA, and a long-enduring foe of Captain America and ComicBook/NickFury since WWII.
----
* AbusiveParents: He couldn't care less for his children (at one point thanking ComicBook/NormanOsborn for murdering one of them) and kills one of them himself.
* ArchEnemy: To ComicBook/NickFury, ever since WWII.
* AristocratsAreEvil: He was a NaziNobleman.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Demonstrated in one story where he ''[[KingpinInHisGym spars]]'' against seven ninjas armed with swords, at the same time, while he himself is unarmed and shirtless. It's a CurbStompBattle.
* BadassBoast: In the ''ComicBook/SecretWarriors'' miniseries, he gets a EstablishingCharacterMoment[=/=]MotiveRant with one of these:
--> '''Strucker''': I am the supreme HYDRA, Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker, I witnessed the fall of nations, betrayed beliefs and ties of brotherhood abandoned by modern times. Defeat only serves to light within me the flame of my obsession. My desire is eternal.
* BadBoss: Once blew up a base contained several thousand soldiers just to kill a handful of Skrulls.
* BaldOfEvil: Bald and evil.
* BigBad: Was the former head of Hydra before his death and after that Madame Viper took the role.
* {{Catchphrase}}: "Hail Hydra!", his organization's motto, is usually his.
* TheChessmaster: In his ''ComicBook/SecretWarriors'' incarnation. He was ten steps ahead of everyone but [[CrazyPrepared Nick Fury]] (and even he had his DidNotSeeThatComing moments)
* CulturedWarrior: Also WickedCultured.
* DependingOnTheWriter: What exactly he did in WWII. While Red Skull is relatively firmly established as an SS counter-intelligence officer of some sort (sometimes veering into scientific experiments), the writers could never quite decide what exactly was Strucker's position in WWII. He's sometimes portrayed as a SS officer conducting megalomaniacal international schemes (image above, most early comics), sometimes as a Wehrmacht officer fighting in the frontlines (Earth's Mightiest Heroes, Super Soldier video game, more recent comics) or a undecided mix of some sort. Writers also tend to flip-flop about his degree of loyalty to Nazi ideals.
* DespotismJustifiesTheMeans: His modern-day goal.
--> '''Strucker''': I do not wish to cleanse the world, I simply want to rule it.
* DiabolicalMastermind: In the present.
* DuelingScar: He has many from his youth.
* EvilCounterpart: To Nick Fury. They are both [[ManipulativeBastard manipulative]], [[TheChessmaster cunning]], somewhat cold-hearted, WWII veterans who command a major intelligence agency. The difference is they're in opposite sides.
* EvilIsPetty: When it comes to Fury, Strucker is unbelievably petty just to hurt the man.
* EvilOldFolks: He was a young man in WWII.
* FantasticRacism: Toward Skrulls, at the very least, and that's after a few decades of (relative) mellowing out. These days, he'll just murder them on the spot.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He can be charming, calm and soft-spoken while gloating about the downfall of your country.
* FourStarBadass: Strucker is usually portrayed as being very high-ranking in his War days, but no less implacable.
* GeniusBruiser: Smart and badass.
* HeroKiller: [[spoiler:In Secret Warriors. He is both very feared and actually the slayer of Nick Fury's son]].
* HighClassGlass: Wears a monocle.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:In Secret Warriors]].
* ManOfWealthAndTaste: It's hard to find something about him that doesn't show just how rich this guy is.
* MasterSwordsman: Quite handy with a sword. It is amusing because he still carries a german longsword in the middle of the 21th century.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: ''Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker''?
* NaziNobleman: To a T.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: Varies with the writer, but he's commonly portrayed as being more interested in pursuing his own agenda, rather than Hitler's.
* ObviouslyEvil: A [[BaldOfEvil bald]], monocle wearing former Nazi with a literal RedRightHand called ''Satan's Claw'' and [[GoodScarsEvilScars facial scarring]] leading [[ANaziByAnyOtherName a fascist organisation with a symbol shaped like a skull]]. Yeah.
* ThePatriarch: Of the Von Strucker family. Unlike the usual type, he cares very little for his family.
* RedRightHand: Literally. He also has quite a few scars on his face.
* TheSociopath: Pretty much.
* SoftSpokenSadist: He's a very restrained man in most occasions.
* TheStrategist: The major planner of HYDRA high-command, and back when he was a Nazi, this was his role. Though he was more combat-oriented, unlike Red Skull.
* VillainousFriendship: A type III with Kraken. He also had one with Hitler, although how sincere it was varies DependingOnTheWriter.
* TheVonTropeFamily: Von Strucker.
* WhatExactlyIsHisJob: As a result of writers not deciding his exact position in WWII, he tends to be all over the place in regards of function. His illustrious career for the German nation includes: Fighting in Africa in WWI (which would put him as a officer of the Imperial Army), enacting a scheme to topple the British Monarchy in a 1936 and trying to assassinate an American senator (both of which would put him as an Agent of the German Intelligence), fighting in the frontlines European theatre (which would put him as either a SS officer or a Werhmacht officer, and he's been portrayed as both). This means Baron Wolfgang von Strucker either changes positions like [[GeorgeJetsonJobSecurity one would change gloves]] or he managed to amass a truly astounding amount of ranks over several different organizations of the Third Reich.
* WickedCultured: Quite a high taste he has.

!!! '''Alter Ego:''' Madame Hydra (VI [in-universe], II [in order of appearance])
A Madame Hydra created by Bob Harras and Paul Neary debuted in ''Nick Fury vs. S.H.I.E.L.D.'' #3 (August 1988). This Madame Hydra's real name was never revealed, only being known as "Madame Hydra VI" because she impressed her superiors in Hydra enough that, after only a short time in the organization, they promoted her to the level of Madame Hydra VI (the identities of Madames Hydra I through V, who rank above her, are unknown), and received an entry in the ''Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Update '89'' #4 under the heading "Madame Hydra VI". One of her first missions as Madame Hydra was to capture ComicBook/NickFury and deliver him to the Deltites, a group of artificially created duplicates which were taking over S.H.I.E.L.D. After failing in her mission and discovering that the Deltites were manipulating her, she allied with the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents against the takeover. She was later turned over to federal authorities and was found to be criminally insane, and sent to a sanitarium for psychiatric treatment.
