History

Ivana Baiul was the scientific head of I.O. There she worked on creating a group of genetically enhanced soldiers for the government, a task previously done 12 times with almost all failures. Determined to do it right, Ivana targetted the children of Gen 12, the last group of genetically manipulated soldiers, believing they would be pre-conditioned to handle the process better.


Her first recruits, dubbed Bliss and Threshold, were taken after Ivana's men killed their parents. Similar techniques were used to gather the rest, many of whom were put into suspended animation, for later use. However some of her targets escaped, aided by John Lynch, and formed the group Gen 13 for mutual protection. The members of Gen13 later broke into Ivana's base, forcing Ivana to flee with some of her creations, Bliss and Threshold included. John Lynch is the name of a comic book character from DC Comics/Wildstorm. ... Gen 13 #6 cover by Jim Lee Gen 13 is a comic book originally written by Jim Lee and Brandon Choi and illustrated by J.

Ivana went to New York, where she awoke her frozen troops, now dubbed DV8, in preparation for a coming confrontation with Gen 13. In the meantime she gots her kicks by indulging her curiosity as to how her psychologically scarred operatives will interact with the real world. DV8 is a comic book published by Wildstorm. ...


After many missions with DV8 outside of government sanction, she was able to blackmail her way back into I.O., now as head of the whole operation.
