Jake was a cop who lost his job after he accidentally shot a thirteen year old boy who he mistook for the person who had killed his partner. Depressed and defeated he manged to eventually land the job of Manhattan Guardian, essentially the newspaper’s personal superhero. In one adventure he battled pirates below Manhattan which lead to the death of his girlfriend’s father and the end of his relationship. Next he faced renegade robots and learnt that he was one of the “seven soldiers of destiny” who were to save the world from an impending Apocalypse.

After joining with the others such as Mister Miracle and averting the end of the world he reunited with his girlfriend. His current whereabouts are unknown.
