The Freakshow
February, 1942

Scott and his team (Flicker, Professor, and Sounder) infiltrate Germany with help from the French Resistance, making their way to Aufstein Castle to investigate rumors of a Nazi secret weapon. Before they can enter the castle, there's an explosion and several Nazi scientists flee.

Searching the castle in the aftermath, Scott and his team find several dead and one live scientist. Before dying, the scientist claims Messer's Device has created an übermensch and will soon explode. They confiscate the man's notebook and flee. Flicker teleports Scott and himself to safety but loses half his left arm in the process. Professor and Sounder die in the explosion.

Scott resolves to deliver the notebook to Allied Command.

Arrowheads
After the war, Strongman helps found American Justice and dons a mask to hide his radiation scars.

August, 1949

While investigating Nazis smuggling uranium, Strongman and American Justice encounter Dr. Danger, conducting his own investigation. Pooling their information, they realize the mob intends to sell uranium to Nazis who escaped prosecution. Despite Flicker's objections, Strongman incorporates Danger into their plans to stop the exchange.

In the ensuing combat Strongman is burried in the rubble from the building's partial collapse.
