Jack Monroe (Earth-7045)


 * This article refers to the second person to assumed the role of Bucky. For his predecessor, see James Buchanan Barnes

Originally selected to be the Bucky to the Captain America of the 1950s, Jack Monroe and his partner spent decades in suspended animation after the incomplete Super-Soldier Serum formula they used caused them to become mentally unstable. After being cured, he adopted Monroe adopted the identity of Nomad.

Nomad is a failed super-soldier and a fallen super-hero. He long had Serious Psychological Instability problems such as frustration, excessive violence and general deterioration of his sanity. Between his former insanity and the many years he spent in suspended animation, he has few deep certainties left.

Nomad thus travels to discover what sort of man he truly is, and what happened to what he loves the most, the United States of America and the dream it held. He wants to fight the good fight, and to discover what has gone wrong for his country in order to set it right.

While fighting for truth, justice and the American Way, Nomad is quite cynical and sardonic (he’s king of the sardonic one-liners), and doesn’t fit anywhere. While he’s in his late 20s, he’s a conservative from the 50s, and is ill at ease in the 2010s.

While intelligent and resourceful, he makes no attempt at any kind of stable lifestyle. One thing he knows for sure, however, is that blind violence and murder are not his way (he does enjoys fighting, but will not seriously hurt anyone – unless he gets overwhelmed or crazed, which happened a few times).
