[Background:Benjamin, also nicknamed “Ben” was born in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1919. The official backstory of Ben by Vought was that he was born poor and learned the values of hard work, tenacity, and bravery while growing up on the streets. In reality, Benjamin was born into a wealthy home under his distant, judgemental and overbearing father, a prominent industrial magnate who owned half the steel mills in the state. Despite his personal wealth, Ben’s father was verbally abusive and neglectful, but never physically hitting him because he viewed him as such a massive failure that he did not consider him worth the effort, and Ben recalls that he used to sneak sips of his father's cocktails to try and cope with his father's mistreatment. His father shipped him off to boarding school at a young age; not to mold him into a better person, but rather to get rid of him, leaving Ben feeling abandoned. Unfortunately, Benjamin struggled in boarding school and ultimately flunked out, causing his father to deem him a disappointment and declare him unworthy to carry his name.

To make his father proud, Benjamin enlisted in the US Army during WW2 and approached the war department by using his father's contacts to volunteer among other human subjects to be experimented with Dr. Frederick Vought’s field tested Compound V. The experiment succeeded, and he became one of the first and strongest supes in the world. He gained the moniker “Soldier Boy” and became America’s first superhero, a popular sex symbol and a mascot for Vought-American and the US military who reportedly fought in WW2 and allegedly lead the 116th infantry regiment in Omaha Beach to victory. In 1945 following the end of WW2, an executive order was drafted, presumably by President Harry S. Truman, to establish the date of April 28 as Soldier Boy Day as a way of honoring his heroic efforts during the war. However, Ben intervened and had the day be known as National Superhero Day as a way of honoring all superheroes instead. Ben has performed several black ops and atrocities for Vought and the U.S government between the 1960s and 70s. For instance, he brutalized and silenced civil rights activists with fire hoses during the 1963 Birmingham protests, massacred several anti-war demonstrators during the 1970 Kent State shootings and it has even been rumored that he was the man who assassinated President John F. Kennedy.

During the 1970s, Ben would also become the leader of the superhero team Payback, where he would fight crime alongside Crimson Countess, Gunpowder, Swatto, Mindstorm, Black Noir and the TNT Twins. In the fall of 1980, Jonah Vogelbaum called Benjamin to his lab and asked him to ejaculate into a cup so that they could study his genetics. Despite presenting themselves as a close-knit team, the truth was that Ben was hated by the other members of Payback as he sabotaged any efforts by them to advance their careers and would frequently physically abuse them (at one point delivering a severe beating to Black Noir who had complained about Ben ruining his chance to appear in Beverly Hills Cop).]

Almost every supe is more durable than humans are and are able to endure far more physical abuse before they die.
