HISTORY

Mark Hollister was a lab assistant to Dr. David Haas. Together, they were working on Project Agent 2.0, a way for Simon N. Kirby to continue operating as the Agent without relying on Rothländer Industries technology. Once Dr. Haas had his breakthrough and completed the suit, Mark killed him and destroyed his research. Mark donned the new suit as his own, becoming the hero of the Aryan Alliance, Aktion! Having killed Dr. Haas inside FBI Headquarters, Aktion had to be rescued by Tigerstrike, an incident he regrets and one that has caused a rift between the two.

WEAPONS & PARAPHERNALIA

Uniform: Made from 9-ply Kevlar (able to withstand ballistic impacts from bullets up to .45 caliber) and a fire-resistant material with a kindling temperature of 1,700 °F (930 °C). The chest piece is a ceramic trauma plate composed of boron carbide, with a Vickers hardness of 38 GPa, an elastic modulus of 460 GPa, and a fracture toughness of 3.5 MPa·m.

Force Blasters: The Agent uniform absorbs kinetic energy through a plate underneath the chest piece. Any force striking the chest plate is absorbed by microcircuitry embedded in the uniform. The kinetic energy is converted into a cool force blast of 72 °F (22 °C), which is released through the user’s gloves. The absorbed kinetic energy is calculated as one-half of the object’s mass times the square of its velocity: K = ½mv². The released energy is one blast equal to the amount of kinetic energy stored in the uniform. Before the energy is released, the gloves produce a smoke-like effect around the user’s hands. The color of the smoke is a visual indicator of the amount of energy currently stored in the uniform.
