United States Department of Damage Control

The United States Department of Damage Control, also known by its acronym DODC or simply Damage Control, is a federal executive department responsible for dealing with enhanced conflicts. Initially a subsidiary of S.H.I.E.L.D., Damage Control specialized in cleaning up the post-battle damage caused by agents. As a response to the Chitauri Invasion, Damage Control was made into an executive branch of the United States government in 2012, and in a joint venture with Stark Industries, was tasked with collecting powerful and alien technology. By 2024, the Department of Damage Control had transitioned into a federal law enforcement agency tasked with apprehending enhanced individuals along with seizing dangerous and alien artifacts.
