Mr. Immediate is from Norway--specifically the town of Hammerfest, in the far north. Unable to tolerate the persistent cold weather, he wished fervently he could be in Hawaii, or someplace else warn and sunny. One day, he got his wish--and found himself on a warm, sunny beach. Soon he was visiting places all over the world--and then UNTIL found him and recruited him for the Alphabet Squad. As he had always been a good person with no desire to break the law in a major way, he agreed.
Hope that helps.
