History(Hitman #1,000,000) - In the 853rd Century civilians could become superheroes by using power icons, relics of 20th Century superheroes filled with iconic energy, to replicate their powers. Gunfire used the goggles of the 20th Century Gunfire to become a superhero. Gwant, son of the owner of the Chronex Corporation, and his friends transported Hitman to the 853rd Century, hoping to drain his iconic energy and become heroes themselves. Hitman made it clear he was a killer, not a hero and he had no intention of helping them. Gwant’s unkillable cat urinated on Hitman’s leg, so he kicked it out a window of the Chronex Corporation, attracting the attention of Gunfire. Hitman shot him in the kneecap, and when Gunfire used his power to turn anything he touched into a weapon he accidentally turned his own rear end into a hand grenade and blew up.
