Strapped into a parachute and pushed from a burning plane by loving parents, the young Scott landed deep in the forest and was raised by a pack of wolves. At the age of twelve, he stumbled across a hidden Native American village where the medicine man taught him the secrets of native mysticism, herbalism, and how to get crepes to cook just right so the edges are crisp but the middle still soft. Leaving the village, Scott journeyed until he reached modern civilization where he vowed to use his powers only for good. A scourge of villains and cowards everywhere, Scott protects the city nightly from crime and reality television. During the day he sits in an apartment, reading comics and trashy romance novels, watching the History Channel and eating Poptarts.
In reality, I was raised in small towns in Virginia and the Midwest. I attended both college and medical school in St Louis, and obtained my Family Practice internship and residency in Indianapolis.
After residency, I served as a physician in the US Air Force for four years. Most of my military time was spent at Nellis Air Force Base (outside of Las Vegas), though I did see a few overseas deployments. After the Air Force, I spent two years in a small practice in Central Illinois, but last year I moved back to my hometown (or at least where I graduated high school) in Southwestern Illinois and joined a Family Practice clinic there.
