[edit] Fictional character biography
Al MacKenzie was born in Austin, Texas. He was once the C.I.A. liaison to S.H.I.E.L.D. He became romantically involved with Contessa Valentina Allegra di Fontaine after awhile, which led to an estrangement between him and Nick Fury. Because of this, he returned to the CIA with the Contessa.
MacKenzie later joined the S.H.I.E.L.D. organization full time, and spent considerable time as the senior liaison officer to the C.I.A.. Subsequently, under unknown circumstances, MacKenzie resigned from S.H.I.E.L.D., and wrote a "tell-all" book entitled UnSHIELDed: an Unauthorized Insider's Look Behind the World's Most Powerful Global Spy Network, which purportedly explained some of the history behind the organization from his point of view(Amazing Fantasy Vol. 2, # 10). Since then, he also acted as an unofficial source to Ben Urich, prodding Urich and Jessica Jones to attempt to expose Fury's unauthorized mission to Latveria(The Pulse # 9), suggesting to some readers that it is unclear how valid his resignation truly is.
