Firebrand

Alex Sanchez lost his own family years ago in a fire. Perhaps it was his empathy for lost families that fueled his obsession with finding missing children. After months of work, he came to the conclusion that a rash of missing children cases was the result of an organized group. He returned home one night to hear a message from that group on his answering machine, moments before a bomb went off, sending his apartment up in flames.

Sanchez suffered massive damage to 70% of his body and would never have walked again if Noah Hightower (a rich man who had lost his own child mysteriously, twenty-five years ago) hadn’t subjected him to a raft of experimental and costly treatments. Hightower developed a special suit for Sanchez, along with a satellite technology which could power the suit with a blast of energy from the sky. Hightower was looking for a hero to act as a force for good in the world, and Alex Sanchez was his man.
