Description & History[]
I.R.A.C. is an acronym which stands for Information Retrieval Associative Computer. It has also been informally referred to as IRA. It is utilized by the Inter-Agency Defense Command (IADC) and helped to analyze data that related to the realm of national security. Many of the threats that the IADC faced were of extraterrestrial origin. Through continual use, I.R.A.C.'s logic algorithms became so advanced that it developed artificial intelligence. It even deduced that IADC agent Diana Prince was also the costumed superhero known as Wonder Woman. [1]
An ambitious man bent on world domination named William Bernard Havitol (Have It All) began draining power from the world's most powerful computers and saw I.R.A.C. as his next big conquest. While Diana Prince labored to safeguard I.R.A.C., the IADC relied upon the roving computer accessory, Rover, to step up it's game. [2]
