Biography:
George Banner was an investigative reporter for the Worcester Telegram. When a new female vigilante appeared calling herself Justice, George felt discovering her identity would be his big break. While investigating, he met Michelle Wrigley, who used to be the publicly known super-hero Powerkid before she gave up her powers for good.
George and Michelle started dating, and eventually he discovered that she was in fact Justice. Rather than exposing her, he instead kept her secret, and helped her in her battle against crime using his own investigative skills. Eventually, he chose to himself don a costume and be called Truth. (Previously, during the 1990s, there had been a previous Justice and Truth team, who had been brother and sister.)
Just over a year ago, several heroes and villains were abducted from Earth by the Protector and forced to do battle in some pocket dimension. During the battle, Truth was slain by Hell Child. This tragedy was the final straw that caused Michelle Wrigley to give up adventuring upon her return to Earth.
A new Justice and Truth team has began operating out of Amherst. This time they are two college students.
Comments:
This character's personality and appearance is based upon my brother in law, but that has no connection whatsoever to my killing him off. The fact of the matter was that in the Justice strip, Michelle Wrigley was suffering an emotional rollar coaster. Her ex-boyfriend had become one of the most powerful super-villains on Earth. Her brother was possessed and killed the President of the United States. Her mother died of cancer. Then she inherited a company and billions of dollars from her brother's father, who turned out to be an evil mastermind trying to take over the world. George's death was the final straw to make her quit, and the emotional drama made for a very great story.

Created by Robert E. Wronski, Jr.
Real Name: Jessica Warner
Current Occupation: College Student, University of Massachusetts-Amherst
Parents: Unrevealed
Siblings: None
Spouse: None
Children: None
Group Affiliation: None
Place of Birth: Unknown
Current Place of Residence: Amherst
First Appearance: Powerman # 263, September 2009
Biography:
Jessica Warner is a psychology major at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. At the start of her freshman year she first met Jonathon Stanford, also a freshman who was majoring in Legal Studies. What Jessica didn't know was that Jonathon was actually Powerman, who had chosen to give up his powers for a year and had taken this new identity to live a normal life, starting over.
Shortly after they met, Jessica and Jonathon found themselves compelled to help in the investigation of the theft of a painting from the campus art museum, which they solved successfully. This seemed to be the beginning of a string of campus and Amherst mysteries that the two inevitably found themselves investigating.
It wasn't long before Jessica and Jonathon were in love, and dating, and solving crimes. Things got weirder as wannabe super-heroes and villains began populating the campus and the town, as a reaction to the absence of Powerman, who the world considered to be missing, despite his Myspace blog posts stating otherwise.
Even Jessica's roommate Holly donned costume to become the newest hero called Justice.
Eventually, the campus became the primary headquarters of a new group of heroes called the Heroes of the People, whose adventures often involved Jessica and Jonathon.
Recently, on one of their usual adventures, Jessica and Jonathon found themselves captured by the bad guys aboard a helicopter, bound and gagged. Jessica was thrown from the helicopter, with Jonathon thrown just after. Just at that moment, Powerman's year was up, and his powers returned. Jonathon transformed (without any eyes on him) into Powerman, saved Jessica, and captured the bad guys. He then told Jessica that he also saved Jonathon he he was a down the road, and flew off, to transform...down the road.
However, a few days later, Jonathon/Chris/Powerman gathered the courage to reveal his identity to Jessica and tell her the whole story of his heroic and often tragic life.
She told him that she would keep his secret, and her love for him didn't change.
The two are currently in their second year of college.
Comments:
Jessica is clearly inspired by the love of my life. Though I made changes for dramatic purposes, her personality is very similar. Jessica remains a principle character in Powerman, and now can be seen in other titles in which Powerman is involved, such as Powerkid.
