| BACKGROUND | |||||
|
Joshua Plitt was born in about 1831 in the mountains of Kentucky. One of five children, Joshua was the eldest son and heir to his family’s small farm. He worked hard, dawn to dusk every day to help feed his family. The hard work paid off and over the years the family was able to afford a few slaves. From there, production got easier and the family was able to afford more land. Just as things started going really well, the South seceded from the Union. July 2, 1863: Gettysburg, PA. Joshua Plitt, sergeant, was serving with General George Pickett. Robert E. Lee made a critical error in judgment and Plitt found himself facing Union soldiers positioned at the top of a rise protected by a stone wall. The first miniball knocked Plitt to his knees, his thigh bone shattered. The second penetrated a lung and damaged his heart. He lay flat on his back as the battle raged around him and saw the face of God. Exactly what happened may never be know but Joshua and his Captain awoke one hundred twenty years later and about two thousand miles away. They had been 'altered', give strange powers, and set free on a modern world they had never seen. A man with a bow found them . . . That was many, many years ago and seems like a different life. He had bonded with the Eye of Azov, a powerful and evil artifact, and his true nature had been released. Even after being freed of the Eye's power by Ghost Archer, he was a different man. Somewhere along the line his straight forward way of doing things began to give him the reputation as dangerous even to those he was supposedly helping. When the news media began labeling him 'monster' the thin veneer of civilization began to crack. He followed the drug czar home to the beautiful estate in the Berkeley hills and watched him park his $150000 car in a garage with six other expensive vehicles. He watched the man go around the palatial build to the sculptured gardens in the rear and the huge free-form swimming pool He watched the man kiss his beautiful young wife, obviously his second spouse, then speak briefly to a second and equally attractive young girl swimming in the pool, the man's sixteen year old daughter. This drug dealer had everything. The cars, the house, the wife, the thugs to do his bidding, everything! It was disgusting. HE, a superhero, slaved for the people, worked long nights, all hours, rain, shine or sickness, and for what? To be called a 'monster'. It wasn't fair and it was about time he changed that. He killed every guard the man had, and then raped both the wife and daughter on the grass while the man sat tied in a chair. When he was finished with the girls, he casually squeezed the man's head until it exploded splattering wife and daughter with brains. He took over the man's home, kept the wife and daughter as sex toys and took control of the drug czar's entire network. He was on his way to becoming the most powerful crime boss on the planet. He knew the bowman would come for him, and hired the dreaded Ace of Swords to kill off the Wild Hunt but Archer was faster and better. He caught up with the new drug czar and took out his entire entourage then nearly killed the big man himself. Standing over the bleeding and dying Joshua, Archer relented and offered a deal. If Joshua left the United States and was a very good boy, Archer would let him live. Joshua agreed. He took up bartending in Rio and was pretty happy picking up beach babes and just enjoying the total lack of responsibility and of course there was always Jynx to keep an eye on him. Jynx was a small alien cat like creature with a tremendous amount of power who was very content just to play Joshua's keeper. It was doomed from the first. A few years of boring bar work and Joshua was getting antsy. He took up auto racing again, Formula 1 and for another couple of years he was content, but . . . he missed the power. Ghost Archer doesn’t know to this day what happened to Jynx but Joshua resurfaced in the United States and powered his way back to the top of the San Francisco Bay Area drug trade, but this time he had protection, Genocide. It didn’t take him long to find the small Genocide operation in San Francisco, nor did it take him long to prove to their satisfaction he wasn’t a mutant but an augmented human. It also didn’t take long for him to take over the cell. Within months he had organized Genocide in the Western United States under his rule. From here he began his war on mutants as the Black King. |
