HistoryAs a teenager, Brian Kinney came to Astro City to meet, hook up with, and (he quietly hoped) become a super-hero. He quickly found a job at Bruiser's bar but the owner K.O. Carson, recommended him to work at Butler's. On only his third day he got the chance to prove himself in front of many non-costumed heroes as he defeated the villain Glue-Gun without any assistance. Fortune and fate blessed him with the opportunity to train as the sidekick of the Confessor. It was a magic summer for Brian as his apprenticeship lead to fast advancement and lots of action patrolling the streets and fighting criminals. Among his highlights were helping Crackerjack prove that an imposter had been committing crimes in his name, in addition to helping the Confessor with the capture of various criminals. But that summer of 1997 turned tragic as first the citizens of Astro City turned on their super guardians, and then his mentor sacrificed himself to reveal the real enemies threatening the public good of Astro City and the world. The very brief career of the Altar Boy went dormant after that tragic loss, but Brian did not lose focus on his goals. After four years of traveling and training, he took up the mission of his mentor, continuing his crime-fighting career by becoming the new force behind the mask and mission of the Confessor. PowersAlthough not possessing any powers, he received training, in detective skills and fighting from the Confessor, as well as the vast array of resources that the Confessor had in his vestry. Observationsoriginally from Buchanan Corners
FootnotesThe last name of Kinney, might, just might refer to the Kinney National Company[1] which owned National Periodicals Publications (later DC Comics).
