Anti-Cap

Anti-Cap

After a terrorist attack killed his girlfriend, a young man enlisted in the navy. He was chosen to undergo an experimental project to replicate Captain America. Instead of using a serum, his powers are derived from patches called AVX which were based upon what gave Luke Cage his powers.
