Fallen Hero: Difference between revisions

Line 68:

* ''[[Sin City]]'' has {{spoiler|Jack Rafferty}}, who was once a hero cop but eventually degraded to the level of an alcoholic [[Bastard Boyfriend]]. [[Word of God]] states that his story will eventually be told.

* In ''[[All Fall Down]]'', {{spoiler|Pronto}} gradually becomes this for the climax.

* From Marvel's [[The Golden Age of Comic Books| Golden Age]], there was Thomas Halloway, the original Angel. In those times, he was a hero who fought the Nazis alongside the Sub-Mariner and the original Human Torch. But in modern times as an elderly man, he started to take morally questionable means of fighting criminals, financing and running the murderous vigilante group Scourges of the Underworld, which has assassinated a large number of lesser supervillains. (The true tragedy is, while he ran the group, the the Scourges [[The Man Behind the Man| ultimately reported to the Red Skull]], someone all the heroes of the Angel's time opposed.) The USAgent confronts him eventually in his mini-series; the former hero is wounded and arrested, as are many Scourges, but Halloway himself was released for lack of any concrete evidence, and was assumed to have resumed a quiet life. Still, the heroic Angel lives on in the form of [[Legacy Character| his grandson Jason]], who was given his costume during ''The Marvels Project'' limited series.
