Notes

• This version of the Unknown Soldier was created by Jim Owsley and Phil Gascoine. It has never been satisfactorily established if this version of the character is the same Unknown Soldier who operated during World War II. It is known that the original Soldier died in Berlin at the end of the war, however the modern version of the Soldier claims to be immortal, and may have possibly survived his supposed death in 1945. The original Unknown Soldier was created by Joe Kubert.
