Freedom Force (comics)
Freedom Force is the name of two teams within Marvel Comics' universe.
The original was a supervillain team, though they occasionally acted in a heroic capacity as well. It was a government-sponsored team originally composed mainly of Mystique's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. They mostly interacted with the X-Men, X-Factor and New Mutants, but also repeatedly met the Avengers.
The second team was set up as Montana's Fifty State Initiative superteam.

Famous quotes containing the words freedom and/or force:
“For He that worketh high and wise,
Nor pauses in his plan,
Will take the sun out of the skies
Ere freedom out of man.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Collective guilt is borne by what is conventionally called the scapegoat. Now the scapegoat for white society—which is based on myths of progress, civilization, liberalism, education, enlightenment, refinement—will be precisely the force that opposes the expansion and the triumph of these myths. This brutal opposing force is supplied by the Negro.”
—Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)
