Andrew Forson is the seventh character within A.I.M. to use the Scientist Supreme title. The character first appeared in Fantastic Four #610 and was created by Jonathan Hickman and Ryan Stegman.

Forson was the Scientist Supreme of A.I.M. after the organization went public and established their base in Barbuda.[7] Forson later appears as the Supreme Leader of the new High Council of A.I.M.[8]

Forson finds Superia badly injured after an incident on A.I.M. Island regarding an escaped creature.[9] An A.I.M. agent approaches Forson and Superia, showing the two a hologram of the creature beating the Avengers. Taking pride in this, Forson orders their translocator activated and to retrieve their "lost child".[10]

Forson and A.I.M. use a device to accelerate the flow of time on A.I.M. Island, creating in a matter of hours for the real world year of progress and transforming A.I.M. into a technologically advanced empire.[11]
