History

Captain Gerald Mynor was at the center of a nuclear crisis in 1976 when he entered Soviet airspace aboard a U.S. spy plane. That vessel was brought down by one of the Soviet Defenders of the Motherland’s flying heroes. The crew survived and managed to send a distress signal… Captain Mynor used his psionic blast to disable the Soviet hero, but that only bought him and his crew a few hours of safety before the rest of the Russian heroes arrived on the scene.

With only moments to act, the U.S. Air Force asked for and received the help of The Statesman, the leader of the Freedom Phalanx. The Statesman used Freedom Phalanx technology to teleport into the USSR and find the crew before the Soviet heroes could. He ended up in a skirmish with a squad of Russian super-soldiers, wounding several of them before escaping through the air with the Air Force personnel and Mynor in tow. The general in command, enraged that the normally untouchable Statesman was escaping his grasp after embarrassing the Defenders of the Motherland, took drastic action. He launched a tactical nuclear missile at the Statesman as he fled across the border.

The weapon detonated on target, which was unfortunately somewhere over Finland. Mynor and the rest of the crew died instantly and Statesman himself scarcely survived.

After Mynor's death, the nuclear crisis escalated as NATO and the Soviets put all of their nuclear missiles and countermeasures on high alert. It took an international collection of heroes, lead by Hero One, to avert nuclear Armageddon. The fact that these heroes were operating outside of political control forever changed the relationship between superheroes and the world's governments.
