Introduction (music)

In music, the introduction is a passage or section which opens a movement or a separate piece, preceding the theme or lyrics. In popular music this is often abbreviated as intro. The introduction establishes melodic, harmonic, and/or rhythmic material related to the main body of a piece.

Introductions may consist of an ostinato that is used in the following music, an important chord or progression that establishes the tonality and groove for the following music, or they may be important but disguised or out-of-context motivic or thematic material. As such the introduction may be the first statement of primary or other important material, may be related to but different from the primary or other important material, or may bear little relation to any other material.

As a child, Augusta Seger was teased because of her pale complexion. She later studied to become a specialist in the field of mutagenics and began her research into the human mutation that created superhuman abilities. Using technological means, Augusta was able to mimic these abilities. She went on to become a supervillain known as the Albino.

Taskmaster

Albino hired Oddball, Batroc the Leaper, Machete and Zaran to attack Hawkeye and his Avenger trainees Justice and Firestar. After two failed attacks, Albino invites the heroes to come and arrest her. Despite knowing that it was a trap, Hawkeye and his Avenger trainees agreed and are quickly captured. Later, Albino is revealed to be working for the Taskmaster. Albino has created a device that alters Taskmaster's photographic reflexes and allows the villains to duplicate superhuman abilities as well. Taskmaster steals the abilities of Justice and Firestar (as they were identified as ideal test subjects) and runs amok in New York. Hawkeye and the others manage to escape and, with the help of the New Warriors, defeat Albino and the superpowered Taskmaster.
