### Origin

Created after World War II, an American spy and a Mi6 agent came together to form a clandestine organization that has no affiliation with any world government.

## Creators and Appearances

### First

Donuts Team-Up #1

**Rainbow**, intermittently known as **Rainbow Six**, is a highly secretive phantom organization that deals with worldwide threats. Unlike SHIELD who specifically focused their efforts on terrorism and America, Rainbow handles terrorism, criminal syndicates, nuclear fallout threats, supervillains, and mysticism on occasion. Created by Elliot Clancy and Margaret St. Lauren shortly after World War II, Rainbow began to operate as a worldwide organization that was more effective than SHIELD.

## History

Rainbow would expand and create three subdivisions during the mid-90s. Later, this number would increase by two. The first new subdivision was created whenever the War on Terror broke out and the second was created in response to the growing modern superhero community.

### Nerv

Nerv was created by Ito Kishida and Matthew Lacon in 1994. Due to a supernatural event that caused mass-destruction to Japan, Rainbow helped during the rebuilding process and the event - as listed in Rainbow's reports - was known as "First Impact" and it resulted in massive loss of life. However, after Rainbow discovered that this event had occurred before during the Edo Period of Japan, this was later changed to "Second Impact". Raphael St. Lauren - Director of Rainbow at the time - worried that this would occur again and tasked Kishida and Matthew with creating a response time to counterattack this. Thus, Nerv was born.

Nerv is sanctioned by Japan's Prime Minister and has shown to be a positive force for Japan. They utilized advanced robotics to create what has become known as "EVA Units" to combat threats in Japan and have begun to fund the local Japanese superhero team, Big Hero Six.

### Ghost Recon

Ghost Recon is a five-man squad that effectively run suicide missions that have a high-risk of civilian casualties. Created by Elliot Clancy, Ghost Recon handles missions that normal infantry could not handle such as large-scale hostage missions, VIP extractions, dirty bombs, and extreme cases of terrorism. They are a stealth squad and utilize shadows to take down targets and free civilians without being noticed.

The original squad consisted of men and women who had no attachments so that their identities could be completely erased. However, as technology advanced, they were able to recruit people with attachments as they were able to heal most, if not all, field injuries and lower the risk factor of death by giving Ghost Recon advanced and experimental technology.

### Siege

Siege is the counter to Ghost Recon. Where as Ghost Recon goes in quietly, Siege is the breach team. This ten-man squad handles invasions and stops wars before they occur, often acting proactively by using intelligence given to Rainbow by allied countries. Siege is often the first responders to a scene that deals with criminal syndicates and terrorism on the North American side of the world. This group handles the more extensive missions that require multiple days to complete or even years. They took down the Yakuza's branch in Canada and stopped a Latverian invasion in CUba.

### Midnight Division

This team is the meanest subdivision that Rainbow has. Midnight Division was created by Raphael St. Laren in response to the War on Terror with the hopes of quietly assisting the American Government. However, there is nothing quiet about the Midnight Division. The squad is one hundred deep and is often considered to be Rainbow's last resort and is used only in true times of crisis. All soldiers within Midnight Division are outfitted with advanced technology that allow for them to breach buildings, take down rogue organizations, and handle full intense warfare. Reportedly, they have only been used twice. The first time was during the War on Terror and the second was to stop the Latverian invasion of Cuba.

### The Wild Pack

Formed by Valerie St. Lauren, Sophia St. Lauren, and Selena Carter, The Wild Pack is a three-man squad that combats threats in the mystical and supervillain variety. Valerie saw an opportunity to assist the superhuman community and took it by forming the team, leading to Rainbow gaining several powerful allies such as Dawn FM and Hooligans. While The Wild Pack were approached by Tony Stark to ally with SHIELD and Stark Industries, Valerie immediately turned him down and this turned out to be the right call due to the superhuman war against SHIELD.
