I'm a technical professional with love of superhero comics. I wrote the majority of my first published comic in 2015. I decided that I wanted to take on the personal challenge of bringing traditional superhero comics to life.

A lifelong student of the martial arts, as a young adult he became a highly skilled member of an elite covert missions/special ops team, developing various technical skills and abilities. He undertook a variety morally ambiguous missions, eventually culminating in a special operation in Costa Muerte, South America.
Betrayed by another member of the agency they worked for, he and his partner were captured and taken to be executed in the dark forest in the moonlight. He nearly died, entombed in his shallow grave; but finally managed to dig his way out.
He survived his blood loss and other injuries, stumbled deeper into the forest, and took refuge in an abandoned cabin. Afterwards, he returned to the cartel’s mansion, making use of its resources to further aid himself, including liberating large quantities of money and supplies for his own use.

While a young girl in India, she began to manifest unusual abilities that she was unable to control. At first, she and her family kept her abilities a secret, and she gradually learned to control them to some degree. Eventually, however, she was found out. The religious leaders of her village viewed her as a threat to their power, so they decided to kill her. Unfortunately for her, one of the men possessed superhuman abilities and was able to call upon a lightning storm to rip her apart. She disappeared, apparently ripped apart by the winds.
Like the mythic Phoenix, she resurrected – transformed from a girl to a woman with white hair. She returned to her village and removed the men from power. She was hailed as a hero and with her parents’ blessing went out into the world to continue her work.

When the armored Nazi agent Blitzkrieg attempted to use the Empire State Building as a broadcast point for an experimental ‘death ray’, it was Mr. Amazing who ended the threat, but at the cost of his own life. A memorial statue of him is displayed in the Freedom’s Stronghold Trophy Room.
He was a superb hand-to-hand combatant and an exceptional all-around athlete.
