General Ross

Full Name: General Ross (first name unknown)
Affiliation: S.H.I.E.L.D.
Relatives: Elizabeth ("Betty"/"Liz", daughter)
Status: Formerly Deceased (Col. Wraith), return method unknown
Powers & History: None (human). As S.H.I.E.L.D.'s liason to the Weapon X Program, Ross approved the attempt to recapture Wolverine. However, he was angered by the fact that Wraith captured the X-Men as well. Wraith told Ross that Xavier was killed in the raid when really the telepath had also been captured. When the general found out that despite everything Wraith had done, Wolverine was still at large, he became furious. He ordered Wraith to send agents to rescue Nick Fury as well as to complete Fury's failed mission in India. Though Weapon X rescued Fury, the government continued to cut funding. When Ross told Wraith that he planned to phase out the Weapon X Program, Wraith used Xavier to destroy the conference room that General Ross was in.

Interestingly, though Ross was presumed dead by everyone, including his own daughter, he recently reappeared in the Baxter Building to authorize the Fantastic Four's trip into the N-zone. It is possible that timing is off and this occurred before Ross's demise, though Gen. Fury's rank and position in S.H.I.E.L.D. would seem to negate that.
