History- Navaho Tribal leader Jason Strongbow, tried to stop a mining company from mining a Navaho sacred mountain. When a mine guard accidentally shot a peaceful protester Jason chased him into the mine where he found his brother Ward, who was collaborating with the mining company. A fight ensued, during which the mastermind of the mining operation, Klaw the master of sound blasted the brothers with sonic energy. The combination of the sonic energy and a rare isotope of uranium present in the mine imbued both brothers with heightened strength and senses. Jason emerged a hero and his brother fled with Klaw to the Savage Land. Taking on the Identity American Eagle he hunted the criminals down and with the help of Kazar, the Thing and Wyatt Wingfoot defeated them. Jason returned to his tribe as their champion.
