History
Background[]
The Superhuman Civil War between Captain America's and Iron Man's forces lead to the deaths of millions.[4] During the final battle, Captain America and his rival mortally wounded each other; Steve survived, but Tony didn't. Consumed by guilt and grief, Rogers vowed to honor Stark's memory by preventing another conflict like the Civil War from ever happening again. Combining his arsenal with Arc technology, Steve abandoned the mantle of Captain America and became the Civil Warrior.[5]
Contest of Champions: Book 1[]
The Civil Warrior was captured by the Collector and taken to the Battlerealm to participate in his Contest of Champions.
Cosmic Civil War[]
As the Cosmic Civil War was escalated by increasingly radical versions of Captain America and Iron Man, the Civil Warrior broke down to inaction and remorse, believing that this was his personal purgatory. When he was found by the Summoner, Civil Warrior was snapped out of it by Old Man Logan. Afterwards, the Civil Warrior was taken to the site of the final battle between Iron Man and Captain America and worked with the Summoner to neutralize them. Although they succeeded in ending the war, the final conflict created enough ISO-8 to recharge the Collector, who returned the Champions present to their crystals.[4]
Secret Empire Forever[]
When Carnage roamed free across the Battlerealm, Civil Warrior organized an effort to capture and bring him to justice. Their search lead them to find Iron Man under Carnage's control. After freeing Iron Man, Steve apologized to him as a surrogate for his Stark, acknowledging that it was his best chance at closure. The two reconciled and Tony upgraded Steve's armor with newer technology. Continuing their search, they encountered the Punisher and interrogated him on whether he was trying to execute Kasady based on the descriptions provided by those under Carnage's control. They soon learned that Punisher of 2099 was the true culprit and prevented him from finishing the job.[1]
Elder's War[]
When the Summoner defeated the Collector, Rogers demanded that the Grandmaster free everyone from the Battlerealm. When the Grandmaster refused and segregated every Champion by their Class, Civil Warrior collaborated with the Summoner's secret rebellion network to find fragments of the mysterious Cornerstone to prevent the Battlerealm from collapsing.[2]
Contest of Champions: Book 2[]
Noticing that there was a collaborative effort to prevent the Avengers from working with Carina, Civil Warrior began his own investigation that lead him to uncover an organization called Ouroboros. Every lead led him back to Avengers Tower, where he was caught sneaking around by Carina following a coordinated attack by Hydra, the Hood, and Stryfe. As Rogers debriefed the Summoner and Carina on his findings and reported suspicion of an infiltrator within the Avengers, they were interrupted by Ouroboros-controlled Adaptoids disguised as Avengers. Civil Warrior used his armor to trace a tracking signal from the Adaptoids to the Black Quadrant, where they discovered the bunker full of Ouroboros experiments. Inside, Rogers decrypted intel that someone named Scytalis was tasked with dividing the Avengers and sabotaging Carina's reputation. In the process, Steve accidentally set off the bunker's self-destruct failsafe, forcing them to escape.
To draw out Scytalis, Carina conjured a plan that involved Civil Warrior and the Summoner undercover in the Avengers Tower safe room as Iron Man and Captain America, respectively. This succeeded when someone posing as Black Widow revealed herself to the disguised duo and announced her intent to splinter the Avengers by staging their two leaders killing each other. When the illusion around the Civil Warrior and the Summoner fizzled away, Scytalis shed her disguise and retaliated. Carina and the Avengers breached the safe room just in time to witness Scytalis succumb to the Summoner. Defeated, Scytalis warned them about Glykhan and blew herself and the rest of the room up, only to be thwarted by Civil Warrior's protective field. The Ouroboros-controlled Adaptoid mimics among the Avengers then began attacking as a diversion while the Avengers Tower Arc Reactor core was set to overload. Fortunately, Iron Man was able to stablize the core thanks to Civil Warrior, Captain America and the Summoner fending off hostiles. Rogers enjoyed seeing the Avengers united again and considered rejoining, but decided that he needed to start somewhere smaller.
Civil Warrior accompanied the Summoner, Carina and Guillotine back to Carina's Council HQ when they learned that Glykhan set a highly lucrative bounty onto the Summoner. They attempted to pinpoint the origin of the bounty to no avail when Ouroboros suddenly hijacked all comms across the Battlerealm to broadcast an announcement from Glykhan. Civil Warrior traced the signal to an asteroid near the remains of Battleworld, unknowingly sending Carina and the Summoner into Bahamet's trap.[3]Attributes
