History

Imprisoned in suspended animation in 1969 with the other members of SMASH. Revived by Tom Strong in 2000. Accepted a job from organized crime to eliminate the Terror 2000 program and was killed in the process. He was buried in a ceremony for Lance Lewis, American Eagle and Eaglet. It was decided that it reflected better on SMASH if people thought he died as a hero.

Holy anachronisms, Batman!
