Brief History
The Infinity Formula is an experimental drug in the Marvel Universe that slows the aging process. It is used by Nick Fury and many of his comrades. In Shield #4 it is revealed that the Infinity Formula may not have been invented by Dr. Berthold Sternberg as previously believed (Marvel Spotlight #31). According to levels of potency, the serum goes by different names. It is used both to incur loyalty and as a means of breaking prisoners by SHIELD. It is seen being used on a chained Nostradamus, to ensure that he will live long enough to go insane due to a combination of immortality, imprisonment, and isolation. Nick Fury's aging process was incredibly slowed by taking regular doses but now he doesn't take anymore and his son inherited the effects.
