Created byDwayne McDuffieand Ernie Colón, it first appeared in 1988, getting its own series starting in 1989. Employees handle everything from rubble clearance and rebuilding to dealing with leftover alien tech, metahuman gear, and occasional encounters with heroes, villains, or cosmic beings. Notable staff have included engineers, account executives, and even powered individuals such as Hercules or versions of Ant-Man.

The United States Department Of Damage Control has been seen in MCU films Spider-Man: Homecoming, where it takes over cleanup after the Battle of New York from The Avengers, displacing private salvage operations, Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home, as well as TV series Ms Marvel, She-Hulk, and Wonder Man, but more like a law-enforcement body, tracking and detaining those with powers. But they might have had their biggest role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. And now the comic books are reflecting that.
In last month’s Amazing Spider-Man #34 byJoe KellyandEd McGuinness,they returned in a new role, led by a cyborg operative, Agent Griffin.

Now today’s Amazing Spider-Man #34 by Joe Kelly and Ed McGuinness takes that forward, as they plan to move on to Electro.
What’s a number three? I’m not sure, but Symbie seems to have an idea….
So… do you think this will end well?
Now, let’s just keep an eye on Agent Griffin and make sure he doesn’t go all Bill Metzger on us…
