Description
Name: Nicholas RoccaGroup: Mafia, Tony Twist
First Appearance: Spawn #6
(November, 1992)
OvertKill is a cybernetic assassin. He was frequently employed by as a mob enforcer and was Spawn's first nemesis. He boasts augmented strength and speed, a sadistic battle fury and a strong, if not misguided, sense of his own invulnerability.
Nicholas worked as a hitman for Luciano Bartino, but was considered an expendable asset. When he died in a hit his boss didn't care for the loss. However, Luciano was approached by Eylan Hessman, Nicholas' half-brother. With funding, Hessman promised to rebuild Rocca into the ultimate killing machine for him. However, this backfired once activated and Rocca smashed Hessman's skull in killing him instantly.
When Overtkill went on a rampage, he became a target for the US goverment. They released Pandemic to destory him. However, instead of following through on his orders, Pandemic turned Overtkill on his captors and had him destroy his old US prison in Area 51.
Facing pressure from frequent mob killings that they blamed on Spawn, Tony Twist brought OvertKill to New York City from Italy. OvertKill used innocent civilians to draw Spawn out from the shadows where he nearly killed him. Wanting to save his Necroplasm, Spawn used explosives stolen from a Central Intelligence Agency owned warehouse to disable OvertKill in their next meeting.
Tony Twist uses his money and scientists to rebuild OvertKill. The scientists warned Twist that his programming had not been completely fixed, but Twist ordered him into battle to kill Terry Fitzgerald. Twist believed Terry was involved in infiltrating his Mafia and wanted a lesson to be taught of him. Spawn arrived in time to save his friend, but was in a rush and did not bring the explosives necessary to disable OvertKill. Twitch Williams and Sam Burke followed Spawn to the alleyway. Upon seeing Spawn and Terry knocked unconscious from OvertKill's assault, Twitch lines up a shot through OvertKill's ear, which scrambles his programming. OvertKill walks away from the alley muttering "Youngblood" and "Badrock" leaving Sam and Twitch to take care of Spawn and Terry.
The damaged OvertKill ambushed Badrock during the latter's vacation in Aspen, with the single-minded goal of killing the rocky hero. After their battle, OvertKill shot his head away to escape, leaving his damaged body behind. Badrock tried to catch OvertKill's head, but the cyborg recovered his sanity, mocked Badrock and flew away
