Story
Blake Stevens has a fairly uneventful childhood. His father is a construction worker and his mother is a secretary at an investment firm. As a child and a teenager he watches how hard his father works and how tired he is every day. His mother tells him about the investment bankers that she works with, the suits they wear and the money that they make. She tells him to get a degree in finance so that he can have a great life. He goes to college and obtains a degree in finance. He becomes an investor for wealthy people and eventually owns his own investment firm in downtown Dallas at a fairly young age. He is extremely successful and known for his ethics and solid investment decisions. He becomes the investor for the richest and most successful business men and women in Dallas. One day he decides to take a tourist trip over the Bermuda Triangle. All is well until they turn around and head back to shore. Dark clouds begin to gather between the plane and the shore. The pilot flies the plane above the dark clouds that now seem to be following the plane in spite of his evasive maneuvers. Suddenly, the plane is sucked into a funnel cloud that has formed beneath them. The plane is ripped apart piece by piece as the passengers are sucked out of plane and into the swirling clouds. Blake is ripped from his seat just before a bolt of lightning incinerates it. He releases his parachute and is engulfed by a dense fog in the middle of the typhoon. The fog condenses around his body to the point that he is unable to move or breathe. As he takes one last gasp for air there is a clap of thunder that creates a wave of static electricity in the fog. This causes the fog to bond with his body and be completely absorbed disappearing into his mouth, ears, nose, eyes and pores. The storm immediately dissipates, but instead of falling from the sky Blake finds himself floating above the water with his parachute dangling beneath him. From this vantage point he sees the debris and the bodies of the other passenger face down in the water. When he hears a woman scream from under her parachute he drops down into the water so that she does not see him flying. He swims over to her, untangles her, then he and the stewardess inflate the emergency raft. They eventually make it back to shore. He and the stewardess become very close, but Blake is unable to forget the images of the other passengers who died in the crash. He knows that he was spared and given special powers to use for good. He develops his abilities, designs his costume, shrapnel and the cape then becomes the hero Typhoon.
