JACK FLAG
The self-described "hero," Jack Flag, hails from Earth. There, he trained vigorously with a group of problem-solvers called Stars and Stripes to hone his martial arts.

Flag was recently arrested on Contraxia for impersonating a Nova Corpsmen, which involved a shoddy costume, a second-rate brothel, and an elaborate extortion scheme. His story about how he got there changes every time he's interviewed, ranging from dimensional travel to a top-secret mission to save the entire universe. The Worldmind's lie detectors have never beeped so much. Flag has begged Nova Corps to contact "the Captain" multiple times, who he claims will vouch for at least one of his stories.

## Trivia

* According to Bruno Gaulthier-Leblanc, they wanted someone in the jail cells on the Rock. Originally it was just a generic character, but it felt like a perfect opportunity for an easter egg, so they included Jack, who in the comics has been a Guardian and met Peter in a prison.
