### Debut

Fox-Man

**John Nathaniel "Johnny" Watterson** is a high school student and skateboarder from San Francisco. He lived a fairly normal life with his two best friends, Kirby McConan and Daniel Gutierrez, who are very average people at school. He was part of an accident, caused by the Hope Company that gave him Fox-like abilities. He is hunted down by the Hope Company, and is harbored by his crush, Eva Williams, when she finds him bleeding in his backyard. With the help of Eva, Kirby, Daniel, and hacker Luke Brinsby, also known as EDG3, he is able to take down the Hope Company and their ruthless leader, The Mask, down, Johnny became the masked hero known as **Fox-Man**.

Taking down The Mask's criminal empire left a vacuum in San Francisco, which Falco Castle, part of the Castle Crime Family, used to start his own empire on the West Coast, away from his family. Castle hired Hank Lowell, a notorious hitman that used to work for The Mask, before being imprisoned, to take out Fox-Man, who posed a threat to his new empire. Lowell was imprisoned by Fox-Man, and was severely injured during their fight, so Castle gave him a mech suit to help him fight. Lowell tinkered with the suit to make it look like an Eagle. While dealing with Castle and Lowell, now dubbed the "Iron Eagle", Johnny meets Kyle Betancourt, also known as The Bandit, a vigilante who operates very differently from Fox-Man. Lowell kills Castle and takes over his empire while continuing his psychopathic hunt for Fox-man. With the help of The Bandit, Fox-Man is eventually able to stop the Iron Eagle and send him back to prison. Johnny and Kyle part ways, but agree that they will help each other out if they ever need it. Unknown to Johnny, Hank discovered his secret identity, but is yet to use the information.

A few months later, Johnny, along with Huntress, Red Mask, Ronin, and Wildstorm, was hunted by Shade and The Dark Order. Shade was secretly the President of the United States, Eric Dumont, and used the absence of the Enforcers to criminalize superheroes and take control of the country. The five heroes were forced on the run, and were able to discover Dumont's secrets. While on the run, Johnny and the four other heroes met Maria Espinosa, a teenager with magical abilities, in a small Mexican town, and they help her fend off the cartel. After evading the authorities, they attempted to take Shade down, which eventually led to Ronin and Red Mask's arrests, and forced Johnny, along with Emilia and Amanda, into hiding in Seoul, South Korea.

While in hiding, Johnny, Emilia, and Amanda meet Hornet, a hero based in Seoul. With his help, they are able to ambush the ECHO Squad, who was tasked with hunting down the three remaining heroes, and they were able to escape to America, and were joined by Hornet. They eventually met up with Aaron and Percy, who were able to break out of prison, and they continue their quest to take down Shade. They break into the White House, but Dumont expected them and they were ambushed, only to be saved by Supersonic. Supersonic joins the group, who are nicknamed The Kids, since they are all young adults, and they finally take down Shade and expose him to the public. The Kids are hailed as heroes, and Johnny, injured during the final battle, talks to the rest of The Kids in the hospital, who decide to part ways for now, and he returns to San Francisco.

Back home, Fox-Man's popularity has skyrocketed since taking down Shade, and even the police have began to take a liking to him. But, his popularity has also made him a larger target to criminals.
