History
On Earth-7918, a world where the human race would reach the starts in the early 1900's, Gabriel Jones would have a vastly different history than his Earth-616 counterpart. In this reality, Jones was a jazz musician until Earth's entered into conflict against the Betans on December of 1941, would not be involved in the interplanetary conflict between Alpha and Beta sectors of space. He would be selected by Captain Sam Sawyer to be a member of the Howling Commandos. Sawyer would die in combat bringing the group their field commander Nick Fury, who would lead the group thereafter. As a member of the Howlers, Gabriel would be armed with a sonic trumpet to use as a weapon. Although the group used unconventional weapons and were constantly goofing off (much to the chagrin of Fury) they became a close knit fighting force.
Under the command of a computer Gabriel and the Howlers would be assigned to defend Space Station Midway where the next attack by the Betans was believed to be staged. The Howlers would soon learn that the station Admiral Strucker was a traitor to the Alphan military, hoping that the Betans would allow his home country of Germany take dominion over the Earth. While Fury fought Strucker to the death, Jones and the others would round up his followers. Upon learning that his friend Red Hargrove was shot down in space combat, Gabe and the Howlers would disobey orders to rescue Hargrove.
Although they were reprimanded for disobeying orders, Gabriel and the others were commended for a job well done. While Gabe is likely still active with the Howling Commandos, his subsequent activities remain unrevealed.
