"I know I'm not as popular as my brother, Falcon, but we still got the same ass-kicking level!"

- Skyman Riley Wilson, AKA Skyman, is the brother of the superhero, Falcon, AKA Sam Wilson. Riley is older than Samuel himself, but he is inspired to become a hero after Samuel becomes Falcon. While both Riley and Samuel got experiences in the military, Riley suffered a more intense psychological trauma than Samuel, having served in more wars and operations, and got ambushed nearly every time. After he saw that his brother became Falcon, Riley decided to do the same thing to himself, but with a little modification. The US government saw Riley's will to become a hero, and granted him the "hero equipment", the Sky Suit. The government also gave Riley an opportunity to become a hero in order to free his mind of his war trauma, as Riley said that helping others can clear his mind. After that, Riley becomes Skyman, a hero like his brother, Falcon, but with a different style. He also assisted Captain America at times, in case Falcon's not there to help her.

Trivia

 * In the comics, Falcon's brother is named Gideon Wilson. While in Earth-5205, Skyman (Riley Wilson) is his older brother (Gideon in the comics is also his older brother). His front name, Riley, was chosen as a reference towards Samuel's wingman and former fellow Exo-7 "Falcon" harness user, Riley, in the MCU.
 * Riley's hero identity is actually the name of a classic, infamous superhero with the same name. But, this time, Riley's hero persona is more based on Skyman's Dark Horse comics version. However, Dark Horse comics' Skyman is named Eric Reid. Still, Riley's character creation is based on Eric Reid himself.
