With the help of his uncle, Joseph Graves, he was able to walk again in just a few short months thanks to his company's robotic prosthetics division. His uncle also gave him a job as a test pilot for the aerospace division, specifically for a new piece aerial combat hardware called the X-47 Wareable Hemi-Automated Aerosuit, Experimental--or WarHAWX, for short.

While on a routine test flight, his sister, the superhero known as Karma, called for his help while on a mission with The Team.

A/N: War Hawk will make his debut in S.W.O.R.D.s and Metas (and maybe an RP book 😁😁) later this year. In the meantime, if anyone would like to submit an image of what he looks like, that would be extremely appreciated. For I have no artistic drawing skills whatsoever.
