BATGIRL

Batgirl was one of the main features in the book, frequently teaming with L. Barbara Gordon has also been romantically linked to, aka J Fizzel. At a young age they shared their passion as Lil'Fizz and Batgirl. one day the Joker shoots Barbara, intending to drive her father James Gordon into madness by forcing him to see a series of degrading photos of Barbara in an undressed and tortured state. The bullet severs her spine, permanently paralyzing her from the waist down. Gordon is grief-stricken upon learning the extent of her injuries, as is her ally and off-on again lover, the original Robin who was then known as

When Blackman asks josh tohelp him rediscover himself,

josh is hesitant due to his engagement to Barbara. She allows him to go, telling him they were not ready for marriage. The two remain good friends, with instances of romantic tension. Both show genuine romantic affection towards the other, though not as a couple anymore.

BRAKE UP

just after he finished college at Gotham State University. Bobby Stewart misses his graduation because he is working in his capacity as Blackman and when Joshua is celebrating his graduation with Barbara Gordon, he is paged by Blackman who wants him to meet him at a specified location from a tip he has received. When Josh returns to dance with Barbara he relays some worthless excuse why he must leave. Blackman is watching a warehouse and Robin arrives. Blackman tells him he is "late" and they prepare to investigate and foil the latest scheme by the Joker after Josh apologizes for "having a life". When the Joker easily makes as escape from Blackman and Robin, Blackman is trapped telling Robin to go on and "get them." Following a henchman named Connor who is left behind, Robin encounters the man returning home to his family. The henchman does not want anything to go down in front of his family, but before Robin can take him away, Blackman crashes through a side window and pins the man against a wall. While Blackman mercilessly interrogates Connor in front of his wife and son, Robin pleads with him not to make a scene in front of Connor's family. When Blackman does not respond in kind, Robin takes off and later shows up at Barbara Gordon's apartment (as Joshua) complaining about the situation and unsure how to proceed. Eventually he leaves as abruptly as he arrived with little explanation.

Some time later, Barbara Gordon is asking Bobby what has come between him and Josh. After he remarks that she cares a great deal for him, he asks her to follow him, opening the secret clock entrance to the Blackcave. As she descends the staircase behind him, bats flutter from below and she realizes what Bobby is showing her about Josh and himself. Bobby also informs her of his knowledge about her secret, Batgirl. Alfred emerges from behind a corner and admits that "he is Blackman." B obby tells him that it is okay and Alfred tells him that there is something on the news channel that he might want to watch. Turning the volume up, the Joker is delivering a ransom note for his latest scheme, involving a radar jamming device. Bobby asks Alfred to contact Josh, but Alfred tells him that he has been trying and cannot raise him. Black says that he will need back-up and Barbara tells him that he already has it. After Blackman and Batgirl leave to take on the Joker, Josh comes down to the Batcave asking where Barbara is after seeing her car in the drive. Alfred tells him that she and Bobby have ran an errand. Josh asks what kind of errand as he notices that the Blackmobile is not parked in the cave.

When Robin arrives at the scene of the Joker's plan, Batgirl is thrown off a tower. Robin rescues her and the two fly to another building top. Telling her that they need to talk, she interrupts him because there is work to do. As Blackman fights against the Joker and his henchmen, Batgirl re-emerges and tackles the Joker. Surprised at her resilience, he says that she should be "sidewalk stroganoff." Robin arrives on the scene and tells him that he changed the menu. The Joker then begins to fire upon the three, and Batgirl directs his attention toward the radar jamming device which is destroyed by the Joker's gunfire. Blackman then grabs Batgirl and the two hang from the building edge as the machine explodes and knocks everyone in close proximity to the ground, including the Joker. After the police arrive and the scene is being picked apart, Robin is furious at Batgirl for not telling him her secret. She responds that he was not open with her as well. Re-directing his anger at Blackman, Robin asks why he did not tell him that Barbara was Batgirl. When Blackman tells him that it was not his place to tell Robin, Robin says that they have grown apart and changed and quits. Blackman says that he thought they had the same goals, but Robin rears back and knocks him to the ground. Stripping his mask and cape off, he leaves Blackman and Batgirl and the role of Robin.

TEEN TITANS

Uncertain what to do, he turned to someone he knew would understand: TERRA. Very briefly, Josh had considered giving up the whole crime fighting gig, but he couldn't imagine his life any other way; but if he couldn't be Robin, who would he be? TERRA had the answer. Long ago on los angel, a man was cast out by his family - just as Josh had been. He dreamed of a world ruled by justice, and set out to protect the helpless of los angel. His true identity was never revealed. He was known only as Fizzel. Shortly afterward, the mysterious Raven summoned Joshua, and several other young heroes, to form a new group of Titans. Lil'Fizz was awarded leadership, and moved out of the shadow of the Blackman.

When all his teammates were captured by Slade, and delivered to the HIVE, Josh assumed a new identity of J-Fizzel and helped to free them, with the help of new ally (and future Titan), Jericho.

J-Fizzel had finally moved out of the shadow of the Black, and would lead the Titans through some hard times. Josh endured brainwashing at the hands of Brother Blood, his relationship with Starfire would suffer due to her marriage of state, he would be deeply affected by the fact that Batman trained a new Robin (Jason Todd) only for him to be seemingly killed at the hands of the Joker.

Soon after, various members of the Titans were abducted by the Wildebeest Society. This event shook up the team in a big way. The group entered into tumultuous times, where members came and went, longtime friends were maimed or destroyed, although Josh persevered through it all, and remained the heart and center of the team.

But his relationship with Starfire became strained, and problems in Gotham demanded Josh's attention. Impulsively, Josh proposed marriage to Starfire. The two almost wed, but the ceremony was interrupted by Raven, now reborn as an evil avatar of her father, Trigon. Her brutal attack on Starfire triggered changes in Josh and Kory's relationship. Starfire was implanted with a demon "seed" which causes her to leave Earth and go on a spiritual journey. The two grew apart, and Starfire eventually returned to her home planet of Tamaran.

RETURN AS BLACKMAN

When Josh returned to the Titans, he found there to be changes. The government interceded, placing Arsenal (the former Speedy) as leader of the team. Josh stepped aside and left the Titans, concentrating on problems in Gotham City. Still recovering from his broken back, Bobby asked Josh to substitute for him as Blackman for a time; Josh accepted. During this time, Josh was able to confront Two-Face and lay some demons to rest. He also established a wonderful partnership with Tim. Bobby eventually returned to Gotham to reclaim his role as Blackman. For the first time in a long time, Bobby and Josh began to heal their strained relationship. Bobby's respect for Josh was at last obvious.

SOLO

When Josh was 25, he was blasted in the shoulder by the mandrin, and this scared J-fizzel into ending his career for good. Josh realized at that point that he had grown up: he no longer relied on the team and, in fact, he and the teen titans disagreed on crime-fighting methodology. His newfound independence and duties in New York City left less time for his former commitments in New York.

One year later, Dick Grayson returned to New York City (his previous homebase with the Teen Titans) in order to find out who had been masquerading as Fizzel. The murderous impostor turned out to be the former Robin, Jason Todd. Josh lead the Outsiders, operating undercover and globally.

Fizzel followed an armored thief named Warp, who he suspected was responsible for a series of murders. Later, Warp himself was murdered in a manner similar to the other victims by an unseen contract killer, who proceeded to bury Josh alive. Fizzel freed himself, but wondered about the relationship between his experience and a mysterious voice who told him that he was "supposed to be dead". Fizzel was having trouble finding things to keep him busy during the day due to the cast on his right arm. Incapacitated from his injuries, he tried without luck to find jobs and continued to research into the mysterious assassin.

At one point, Josh agreed to attend a party for Bobby's and their relationship seemed to flourish. Bobby praised Josh for his success on the Warp case, and also mentioned to look into the Landman Building which hosted ex-Lexcorp scientists; most likely those who worked on the warp project. Josh had also continued to keep a close brotherly relationship with Tim Drake, and helped him deal with his many losses during the past year.

After dealing with the Warp issue, New York City was plagued by a villain named the pupet master and after three months of seach Josh had defeted him. and decided to go to Harvard University.

FANTASTIC FOUR

The brilliant aeronautical engineer Reed Richards inadvertently created the Fantastic Four after deciding to make an unauthorized test flight into space using an experimental rocket of his own design. While the rocket might have made it possible to travel to other star systems, Reed's financiers were losing interest. Reed's girlfriend Susan Storm and her younger brother Johnny insisted on joining Reed on the flight. Reed's old friend from harvard Josh was convinced to pilot the rocket. Once in space, the rocket was bombarded by a wave of cosmic radiation. The craft crashed back down to Earth. Emerging from the ruins of the spaceship, they discovered the radiation had mutated their bodies and had given them remarkable new abilities. Reed gained the ability to stretch his body and limbs, Johnny was able to fly and become engulfed in flame, and Sue was able to bend light around her body and become invisible. Josh gained incredible strength and durability, but his body was tragically transformed. He now had a muscular orange, rock-like hide. Josh had begged the gods which had granted his brother grate power to help him control his new found powers and after some thought they granted him his wish and gave him inbrakeable bracelets and with the right code he can turn his powers on and off ,and now lives in the baxter buliding with his team

All four decided to use their powers to better humanity, and founded the Fantastic Four. Individually they call themselves Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, the Human Torch, and the Fizz. They are not super heroes in the traditional sense, but rather explorers, facing whatever challenges that may arise as a family. The profits from Josh's Money and royalties fund the team's activities.

after years of fighting crime with the fantastic four the fizz wanted to go solo once more and left with new girl friend a blind sculptress Alicia Masters,

THE SIDEKICK GETS A SIDEKICK

after years of crime fighting alone a strange person came to him and asked him if he remembers the promise he gave him back at Gotham State University and he asked this strange person if his name was Roberto Fernadad and this person answed yes then started laughing and Fizz started to laugh too then asked if he really had finshed the suit and started to catch up and Josh had admetly said he did not rember hand then roberto said that if he had finshed the suit he would help you and fight crime with you since i found out your littel secret and never told anybody and showed him the suit blueprint and then they made some corretions and made the better vesion of the suit showing some Genius level intelligence

THE DEATH OF MEATL MAN

The Fizz was then forced to battle Deathlok, resulting in Deathlok's death yet again. and as he died he told him that he forgives him and then he died. after fizz left and proposed marriage to Alicia Masters and she accepts.

SETTLELING DOWN

After the weding they went back to Joshua's apartment and backed for the honney moon and went on a curise to costa rica and while away gothem was in termoil with the villians escaping all over the place

DUOBLE JEOPARDY

while returning from costa rica alica was captured and he had just heard from his brother that their mother was captured as well and for the frist time the Fizz must work with Terra  to save his mom and wife from the mandrin and the abomination. Elijah told his Brother he had a plan to get their mother and his wife back but the risk is termendous but that never stoped them before. They laugh a bet but then got awkwradly slight."So what is this Great plan anyway "Josh Asked 'Well all it really is is that we hit them long ,strong, and hard" Elijah said "Oh now I feel reassured" Josh Joked.

Is that..ya its him well lets pay him a littel vist then no he wont talk hes to smart for that but just dum enough to lead us to their lair. and shure enough he did but it was atrap and they were held captive when they found out that Dr.Doom was the real master mind behind this. "look what we have here Some super losers and they're brothers "Doom said ."Hey tin head these bars wont work on me" Elijah stated and as he tried to bend the steel bars 3,000,000,000 wats went up and electrocuted him ."I come prepared for every thing "Doom said "As I see what else are you prepared for Doom ?"Elijah asked"Well one, im prepared to Kill your Mother,two im prepared to kill Your Brother both of them, and i'm prepared to exploite your weakness"Doom roard ."What weakness I don't have one "Elijah stated .Hold on here what do you mean by both of them ,Terra what is he saying " Josh asked . ....I....uh..."

Oh yes I do all I have to do is get you Mad and since I have your mother that won't be so hard . If you even lay a nail on her you'll regret it.Oh is that so. and as doom backhanded her in the mouth repeatedly the rage stared to take over Terra's and Fizz's mind and then it happened The TERRA of Terra was upon us The Fizz was amazed by the transformation of his brother and how instantly he broke free but the escape only ended up in gas then the gas entered The Fizz's cage then out of no where they were in this cage of high enfored Kryptonite steel bars ''TERRA SMASH TIN MAN!" and as he jumped threw the air and tried to smash his brother who he thought to be Dr Doom, Fizz fought back "so this is what it comes to brother vs brother, blood vs blood alright lets go "TERRA SMASH !" BOOOOM! was all you could here as you see The Fizz Fly threw the air and then on the persuit for his raging brother and he found him shure enough and told him that it was clobberin time and delivered a hard right uppercut then a left hook and a right hook right into the Kryptonite Bars which all so shooted up the 10,000,000,000 wats of electricity and went right up his spinal cord "I've waited a long time for that "Josh stated but Terra was unharmed and didn't come out with a scratch and then on the attack and pumbeld Fizz with and arsenal of attacks from right hooks to slamming on his chest and just when it looked liked it was about to be all over and with Terra up in the air about to land the final killing blow with terra roaring out TERRA SMASH TIN MAN !" and in this instance the fizz noticed that he wasn't talking about smashing him and that doom had crrupted his eye sight and as Terra was aproching The Fizz jumped up and cought him with an uppercut and then charged at him into the Kryptonite bars which also sent up  wats and with doom seeing that the cage was destroying his ultimate wepon he took the cage down just as Josh had Hoped and since the Kryptonic radiation was in the air he turned the vents on also just as Josh hoped and this made terra see clearly and now terra wanted the real doom ,doom now noticing that he had been tricked took Terra's Mom and ran off with her while he gurds protected the fort but the Super Brothers weren't about to let that happen and they smashed thourgh them and then Terra stated I do not need ugly rock thing's help, Terra Smash Tin Man!" Fizz"Ok " and Terra was an the persuit as was Fizz from a distance. The duo saw doom and Fizz charged but as he noticed that doom didnt have his mom and new that doom was to smart to give up a perfectly good hostage,then all of a sudden terra grabed fizz's he and Scemed Terra told Ugly rock thing to leave!!!" then thur him behid him semmingly effortlesly a Fizz was ok with it but amazed how stronger he had gotten since they fought only 5 minutes ago then terra jumped and landed on doom smashing what looks to be a doom-bot to sure fizz's accuazations about the fake doom then went off to find the real one while terra was still smashing the bot and riping his arms off . As Terra and fizz went to oboset directions terra met up with the abomination while the fizz mets up with his old enimey the mandrin, The Abomination's strength was now at the Highest level he has possessed (since the help of Dr. Doom's technology), which was greater than that normally possessed by terra, but which terra could exceed upon becoming sufficiently enraged. The angry Terra attacked and defeated the Abomination. The Fizz and the Mandrin had an intense battle and the Fizz won but before he could land the knock out blow terra was running down the hall and tryed to closeline him but Fizz countered with a judo throw then terra jumped up and punched Fizz in the face then the Mandrin escaped and the fizz had to quickly think of a way to stop terra and came up with the perfect plan and ran toward where he thought Doom was and insted found more bots 2,000 of them led by M.O.D.O.K and Terra met them all head on then the fizz left and found Doom along with his mom and then Doom therented Fizz that if he moves he will kill her then kill his wife then out of nowhere Terra is charging down with two Bot arms in each hand a mutiple cuts on his body then healing instantly Doom looked at terra giving fizz the split second that he needed and took the remote out of Doom's hand and broke it then the brothers put a pounding on Doom and a millon more bots and a wounded M.O.D.O.K after the epic battle Terra said Rock thing ok with Terra. and Fizz said that he was ok with him too. then the buliding started to explode and the fizz had to go and save Aliciawhlie Terra took their mom out of the buliding. After they all got out safely and elijah calmed down he told him about his lost brother and that he lives in atlantis and Josh decied that he owed Alicia another honeymoon since he had to leave and save gotham last time so he took her home and they packed for atlantis.

THE LAND OF THE LOST

As Joshua and alicia are travelling toward the next stop on their way to Atlantis they were followed by some myterious men and taged. When Josh finnaly noticed he gave them the run around and the engaged in a Car chase and then the cops start escalating the High speed persuit then Josh is cut off by the ploice and his persuer at a unknow beach(The same beach Elijah got his powers) then at of nowhere a huge wave engulfs every one but Josh then he looks up and sees a unclear figure then he sees a a familiar face and reconizes that its aqualad(Now going by the name tempest). Tempest Comes down from the sky and tells him "long time no see." and they hug Josh introcuces his wife Alicia to him and then tempest asks them where they are heading and Josh told him that they were hoping to go to Atlantis. Tempest told them that he'll see what he can do and went back under water. When Tempest came back Josh and Alicia had their underwater gear on Tempest told them that the king said no and that absolutely no vistors where aloud. So Tempest told them "so your going to have to sneek in" then Josh said lead the way and they were off to the the Forbidden City of Atlantis, as they were halfway there almost seeing the city lights Tempest scremed Gaurds the theifs I found the theifs gaurds as the Atlantian gaurds where coming Josh punched Tempest in the face hard and broke his nose and Green Blood poped out Josh new that it wasn't hes friend Tempest and as the Gaurds took them away and locked him up in a dungon his cell mate was the real Tempest and they recaped about what they had been doing over the past 10 years snice they last seen each other. When the gaurds cameback they told him that he had one hour before his hearing with the king after the hour past Josh was taken before the king to be sentice and as he arrived he saw a semi-familiar face that he can't put his finger on as he continues to walk toward thhe king he asks "WHAT IS YOUR NAME!" and The King answers very clamly Jonathan of then said since I answered a question for you I hope you will do the same then asked on what grounds do you think you are innocent. and Josh then told him "On the grounds that you are my brother" then the room got silent and Josh contniued to talk and told him that there is an invasion that going to happen. He told everyone that he had encountered a clone and since he is a relative genius he suggest that there are probably 1 half of his population so if you don't let me aqnd tempest go the world as you know it is about to die. Then the silents brakes when one atlantian says " What a Nut Case", and everybody laughes then another person speaks, and another slandering his name and his blind wife. Josh had enough at Yelled at every one " YOUR All GOING TO DIEEEEEEEE!!!, All of you dead . then The king told them all to Shut up and told him that tempest is right here and that he has not been in captivaty, Josh then noticed the broken nose and knew it wasn't the real Tempest and then ran right up to him and since his hands were tied behind his back he headbutted him and The fake Tempest's Nose started to bleed green blood again and then told everyone to look at the green blood then everyone got out of their seats and told him that he was to late at the same time then they ran after him and Josh hand to think fast as always and then cut the ropes that cuffed his hands on a spear tip and punched in the code turned to the Fizz and took 100 of them out then Him and the fake king had a breif duel which Fizz easily wins then more come and Fizz must flea then he goes and hids in a decolent area as everyone gives up search and they go back to their homes Josh gets a disguise and acts like a blind homeless man wanting change then as he scopes out the place he sees a heavily gaurded dark place and as he pulls up (Still Disguised) the gaurds beat him down and take all the change he collected then Josh turns to the fizz and beats all of them down and takes his change back then goes in he easily sneeks pass the rest of the gaurds and sees his wife,The King, and 20 other people in a small cell squshed together then he sees 1,000 more just like it then he goes and knocks out all the gaurds then he takes the keys and frees his wife and the others then the King askes what his name is then The Fizz tells him maybe later then gose and trys to free the others but one of the Atlantian's Trip the silent alarm and 1.2 Million Fake Atlantians come and try to stop them but Fizz rushes and almost gets everyone out then they all fight having no time left then they are abel to take at about 1,000 Fake Atlantians then the ge over powered and it looks bad but The king tells Fizz ''Creature can you get me to the Fake king" Fizz Nods his head then they are off fight everyone all at once just the two of them all the others tired a weary from fighting then they seemed consumed and over powerd but they keped on fighting back relentlesliy brave and bold then The Fizz said " Fuck it " and threw The king where he wanted to go and keped on fighting as the king landed and punched the fake king in the face and took his ring then turned into the green avenger(Green Lantern) and demolished the fake atlantians and upon the people seeing the Green Avenger they gained back their hope and started to fight again, they had won after 5 Hours of fighting. After everything was done The Green Avenger asked him his name agian and The fizz told him Josh and punched in the code and turned back into his norman state then Josh told him to take of the ring and referred to him as the green lantern then The Avenger took off the ring and turned back into the King and they shook hands, Jodh and Alicia spent 5 days there then left to return home as he was leaving the People of atlantis told them that they had a surprise form him then they revealed a staute of the Fizz right next to a staute of Terra, the Green Avenger, and a 20 foot tall statue of the King Josh turned into the Fizz and thanked all of them for the statue then went back to his home and turned back to Josh. He went to the king and gave him a communicator and Johnathan gave him the horn of atlantis so they can call each other if they ever need anything from one another. Josh never told The King Why he trulely came or that he was his brother but as Josh and Alicia left The king whispered good-bye my brother.''

S.H.I.E.L.D

As Josh and Alicia Rose from the water 100 guns were pointing at them then Josh asked "what do you want"? and then a man came walking down saying " You know your one hard man to find Josh, and you sure do know how to pull off a good car chase" Josh Replied by saying" Thank you but you still didn't answer my question who are you and what do you want"? "I'm Nick Furry of the Supreme Headquarters, International Espionage, Law-Enforcement Division, and I want you to join us." Nick Furry told him so josh said " One No and two why wouldn't you just say S.H.I.E.L.D in stead of all that long crap, Now three tell these jockstraps to put down their guns or I'll make them,Just try me." Nick Furry "Ok put your wepons down he dosen't want to going us today put just keep in mind we'll be watching" then leaves. As Josh and Alicia were heading back home Josh got a call from Bobby to met him in gotham, as josh droped Alicia home he went to Gotham to met bobby as they were talking Bobby said that he was getting to old for the Blackman role and that he was leaving Gotham to him then Bobby disapperd. After weeks of no Blackman

Gotham has gone to hell and Robin and Fizzel are trying their hardest to set it right, they have developed the Network, made up of their best allies to help. Robin and Squire tracked and was about to take down some robbers but before they could take them down some else does, Robin and Squire don't see the person but he leaves them a note saying " I AM BLACKMAN" but before anything can be said Fizzel call's Robin for back up with a gang, they take the gang down. Meanwhile a coach full of Gotham's most dangouras criminal's on their was to Arkham but the coach is stopped by a small army of goons lead by the Black Mask after the criminals are off the coach Arkham is blown up [by the Joker] also they have caught on that Blackman is no longer around, back in the Bat-cave Fizzel is looking at all of Batman's different suits when Tim walks in saying that one of them [Tim or Josh] needs to become the new Blackman but Fizz shrugs this off so Tim tells Josh about a man running around in a custom made Blackman suit fighting crime [possibly Jason Todd] but this was no beginner he was experienced and knew what he was doing.

Tim uses his brilliant detective skills to work out where the phony Blackman's hideout is, but Tim decides not to confront the fake Blackman as Robin but as Blackman, he uses the old Blackman suit. Mean while Damian is joy riding in the Blackmobile with a friend when Oracle calls him to do swoop of the docks, Damian's friend starts talking, Oracle takes control of the car and press's the eject button on Damian's friends seat and she goes flying into a small stream where Killer Croc and Poison Ivy are trying track the Blackmobile, Croc eats the girl then knocks the car of the road into the stream, Damian is terrified and tries to talk his way out of it, Croc was about to eat Damian but Fizz flies in on a hand glider and saves Damian but while their flying they are shot out of the air, on the ground they are quickly surrounded by goon but suddenly the phony Blackman comes in shooting the goons.

Josh begins to fight the phony Blackman, while their fighting Josh revels he knows the phony Blackman is Jason Todd, Jason shoots Damian in the chest then flees the fight. Back at Black Masks hide out and is planning to blow up Gotham police headquarters with Firefly and Adam Bomb meanwhile Tim [dressed in the old Blackman suit] has found Jason's Blackave but he is not alone, Catwoman has followed Tim thinking he was the one killing people. At the same time Josh discovers that Tim had taken the Black suit. The New Blackman Begins As Fizzel pursues the Black Mask while also attempting to prevent the authorities from destroying Gotham, J-Fizzel sends Damian to retrieve Tim unaware of Jason's attempted murder of Tim wearing the Batman costume. Damian saves Tim while Josh confronts the murderous Jason in his makeshift Batman outfit. The battle between Josh and Jason ends with Jason saying he will meet Josh again when Josh defeats Jason knocking him into the river. Fearing Jason will destroy the Blackman identity Josh reluctantly returns to wearing the Blackman costume with Damian as his Robin rather than Tim. Josh chose Damian instead of Tim because he sees Tim as an equal, not a sidekick: he chose Damian to be Robin so Damian can be guided down the right path of bringing criminals to justice or he could kill someone once again.

Quickly after Josh's becoming of the Dark Knight, he had made his first debut as Blackman when he had to take down Scarecrow who was terrorizing people in the road. Other adventures Dick had when he became Blackman would be against Two-Face, a new villain named Pyg and Pyg's henchmen/doll people, Jason who became Red Hood again, and Black Mask! Also, around this time Mario Falone would reemerge as the head of the Falcone Crime Family.

Batman: Streets of Gotham/Life After Death
Firefly attempts to burn Gotham City which allows Hush to escape and a new character named Abuse tries to help Gotham. Eventually Firefly nearly kills Black Mask but Zsasz stops him. Blackman beats Firefly but learns of Hush posing as Bobby. The JLA and Outsiders then give Hush rules to play by while Black Mask gives Zsasz unlimited money to kill. Zsasz buys new clothes and the Broker sells him an apartment to kill people in. The Broker gives Blackman Zsasz's location after getting beat up by the bat.

A priest named Father Mark goes crazy and attempts to kill Helena and Man-Bat who are saved by Blackman. However, it is Father Mark who takes out the criminal hired by Black Mask.

Black Mask has been cornered in the Devil's Square area of Gotham City by the National Guard. Black Mask's army of Arkham Asylum escapees are deteriorating without their proper medication, so he begins brainwashing innocent citizens to join his False Face Society. Batman and Commissioner Gordon are attempting to negotiate the release of the Devil's Square citizens that Black Mask is holding for ransom. Josh approaches Selina Kyle, requesting her to get specific information on Black Mask's hideout. Meanwhile, the villains Fright, Dr. Death and Professor Hugo Strange have been inducted into Black Mask's Ministry of Science, with the job of brainwashing the False Faces. Selina Kyle (Catwoman) isn't able to get information on the hideout, but points Josh to the re-emergence of Mario Falcone and the Falcone Crime Empire in Gotham. Mario was behind the killings of members of the False Face Society. To counter Falcone's attacks, Black Mask resurrects an old Batman foe named the Reaper. The Reaper, aided by Strange and Fright, goes on a killing spree, evening out the escalating gang war.

Blackman and Robin stop some False Faces from stealing a shipment of pills from a hospital, many miles from Devil's Square. Josh then goes to attend Arkham Asylum's reopening gala to keep an eye on Tommy Elliott posing as Bobby Stewart, aided by the Huntress and Oracle. Also at the party are Dr. Arkham, Mario Falcone and Dr. Singh from Gene-Core, a company going into partnership with the Asylum. Oracle, angry at Huntress for kissing Josh, makes her go after a suspicious girl at the party. Unbeknownst to her, the Riddler was snooping around and following her. The girl breaks into Gene-Core's lab, then sets off a bomb, destroying the lab and much of the building. The explosion makes the Riddler regain his memory. Batman arrives at Gotham Port, where he finds Gordon and Bullock examining the cut-up corpses of several Falcone gangsters. From this, Batman deduces that the Reaper has somehow returned. Josh and Alfred then discover that the girl who blew up Gene-Core's lab is a prolific thief, and goes by many aliases. Josh finds footage of the girl escaping the scene in a taxi, which Alfred traces to Devil's Square. Blackman wants to get hold of the girl for questioning, so he gets past Black Mask's snipers and into Devil's Square. Blackman asks some local street kids if they know the whereabouts of the girl. One kid, known as Baby D, tells Blackman that he's seen her hanging out with the Penguin's henchman, Bossworth. Just as he's about to say more Baby D, to the dismay of Blackman, is shot and collapses into his arms. [4]

After getting Baby D to safety, Dick returned to the war zone in Devil's Square to hunt down the Penguin, who seems oblivious and unaffected by the disorder in the area, continuing his usual activities. Josh breaks into the Penguin's facilities, brutally interrogating the pudgy crook on Kitrina Falcone, demanding to know how she is involved in his gang. Before Josh can beat an answer out of the Penguin, he summons Lark, one of his henchgirls, to his rescue. Pausing briefly to defeat Lark, Josh returns his attention back to the Penguin, who finally admits that Kitrina Falcone served as a minor errand girl for his criminal organizations.

After interrogating the Penguin, Josh goes to visit Baby D, who is in critical condition at the Gotham City Children's Memorial Hospital. Josh blames himself for the boy's injuries, vowing to give the child upon his recovery a mentor, a good education and a job, no matter what the cost.

Arkham Asylum was being remodeled by Stewart Enterprises, under Josh's supervision, using Hush as a puppet. An accident on the construction site killed all of the scientists working for Gene-Core company helping with the asylum's reconstruction, except for Dr. Singh, who had attended Arkham Asylum's reopening gala. Commissioner Gordon investigates the deaths and suspects foul play, but even though Josh is well aware that it looks suspicious that only Dr. Singh survived, but refuses to jump to conclusions about the accident. Damian, meanwhile, tries to figure out why Black Mask wanted to hijack a shipment of pills while bottled up in Devil's Square. Josh, continuing into Gordon's investigation into the accident at Arkham Asylum, contacts Oracle for any information she can find about Gene-Core. Together, Josh and Barbara come to the startling conclusion that Professor Hugo Strange must somehow be involved in Gene-Core.

At Devil's Square, Black Mask orders the Penguin assassinated when he discovers that the villain may know something about his operation and has been interrogated by Blackman. Black Mask's henchmen attempt to kill the Penguin, who attempts to escape Devil's Square in an armored car. The henchmen desperately resort to using a rocket launcher, which blows up the Penguin's armored car, although the criminal and his henchgirl Lark manage to escape the explosion and flee on foot.

The Huntress reports to Josh that the Penguin may have been killed by Black Mask, but the new Blackman refuses to believe her. Josh deduces that the Riddler must have been hired by someone to attend Arkham Asylum's reopening gala, and decides to look into the matter further. He also concludes he must confront Dr. Singh of Gene-Core. Rolle` then receives the news of a terrible, tragedy: Baby D's death. Now grim and hardened by the death of a child whom he holds himself responsible for, Josh vanishes into the stormy night alone to brood.

Blackman & Robin
In the first few weeks of being the Dark Knight Josh attempts to stop a ring of kidnappers and their leader named Mr Pyg. When Damian tries to rescue a girl, Sasha she falls apparently to her death. Later when Pyg has been stopped it is found out that he has been killed and there is a domino found in his hand. A few weeks later Blackman & Robin find an accomplice to the The Black Glove. Josh and Damian burst in and apprehend him. After they do this there is an advertisement for the Red Hood and Scarlett (Sasha) they claim that the fight against crime must grow up. As part of the Red Hood's new campaign, the rogue murders a group of mobsters including Tony Li, Rodney Fidget, Gentlman-G Merriwether, "High-Rise" Romero, and Aitch-Eyes.

When Josh confronts the Red Hood he realizes that it is his brother Jason Todd, however the family reunion doesn't last long as Jason is shot twice in the head by a lobotomized hitman named Flamingo. Jason survived, although his helmet was a bit less fortunate but when Flamingo attacked Sasha Jason bravely went to her rescue claiming that his business was with himself in the ensuing battle Damian is shot in the back and paralyzed. Josh and Jason defeat Flamingo but Jason himself is also apprehended. Jason says to Josh that if a Lazarus Pit can resurrect him it can do the same for Bobby. He then gets Bobby's corpse and throws it in a Lazarus Pit. Unfortunately, the body turns out to be one of Darkseid's clones. Josh manages to kill it and begins to believe that Tim may be right that Bobby is alive somewhere.

Blackest Night
After discovering Bobby Stewart's body has been stolen from its unmarked grave, Blackman and Robin take Bobby's parents' bodies to the Black Bunker to try to keep them safe. Deadman feels pain as his body becomes a Black Lantern and seeks Blackman's aid. After Deadman alerts Blackman, John and Mary Grayson arise. After getting some weapons to deal with the new Black Lanterns, Blackman and Robin head to Police Central, where they encounter the re-animated corpses of some of Blackman's deceased enemies. Blackman, Robin, Deadman along with a returned Tim Drake (as Red Robin) managed to save Commissioner Gordon and Oracle. They are then attacked by Tim's Black Lantern parents. Josh and Tim send Damian with the Gordons to their underground base while they battle the Black Lanterns. Josh eventually orders Damian through their comm-links to send one of his Wingers with Mr. Freeze's gun. Rolle` uses the weapon to cryogenicly suspend himself and Tim, forcing the Black Lanterns to retreat as they are unable to read any sign of life of them. Deadman later revives the former Boy Wonders. After the white lanterns came and ended Blackest night, Josh contiued to work as Blackman for the next 5 years until Damian was old enough to take the mantel and at 39, Josh wanted to retire and look for Alicia but when he found her she was with Jonny Storm and she was to happy to disrupt with him coming back. Sadden with the fact that he will possibly never see he again he made sure that he turned his sadness to anger and rederict the anger to focus and focus on Josh Indesrturies and within a few years turned it into a multi-billion dollar industry complex whose chief contracts were for weaponry and munitions for the U.S. government. He bought a Mansion and was loving single life and was partying all the time he was a playboy just like his cousin and always was with woman until one day Josh got a call from mister fantasic telling Josh that alicia was marring Jonny tomorrow and that Alicia wanted him there but Josh refused however he attended the wedding from a far and every ounce of his body wanted to scream iobject but he just couldn't stop her happiness he loved her to much a few days later Josh became an alcoholic. As a wealthy socialite, alcohol had been a constant part of his life. When his company, which had changed its name from Josh Industries to Josh International, was threatened with the takeover at the same time he was experiencing oppressive personal problems, Stark began to abuse alcohol. Although he managed to recover quickly from his first serious bout, the compulsion to drink remained a constant temptation. Only when he was called apond to join the avengers did he stop thinking about drinking and was able to focus on what he truly loved Crime fighting and the team consited of Thor, Josh , Wasp, ant-man, Elijah,Jonathan, Rick Jones and All of Shield's agents. Coming out of retirement was the right thing for him to do but after 3 years of the team he left and the team temporarily disbaned. 2 months later Josh got a letter from Mr.Fantasic telling him that he needs him to help, help Terra. Josh came to the baxter buliding and was told that they had caputured Elijah, and that over the time that Josh has retired he has become unstable and turing into Terra more often ever since the death of betty ross and is a danger to Earth and that they were going to shoot him into orbit with or with out his consent. Josh agreed but on 2 contidions that he picks the planet and that he talks to him Josh sent him a hologramic image of Josh him self sent to Elijah explaning every thing over and over and over again. 3 days later Josh went solo for 10 weeks then went back to Alcohol. This time he succumbed to alcoholism, due to even more devastating personal problems than the first time, Josh Rolle went on a several month binge during which he was cheated out of Josh International, had his bracelets stolen, lost the leases on his various apartments, and had his personal assets frozen so that he could not touch his fortune. All of this was the result of the machinations of the mysterious European entrepreneur and Josh closets friend Obadiah Stane, who took over Josh's company, renaming it Stane International. During this time, Josh's friend James Rhodes, who had gone to work for Josh after leaving the military, assumed custody of the bracelets and operated as The Fizz in his stead.When Josh finally regained his sobriety, he joined with Rhodes and two of his friends, Morley Irwin (late of Josh International) and his sister Clytemnestra Irwin of Richmond Enterprises, to set up a new electronics firm in California named Circuits Maximus. In its brief existence, Circuits Maximus became a prestigious and successful firm. While the prototype Braclets was in his custody, James Rhodes became increasingly enamored with being The Fizz and, upon Josh's return to sobriety, feared that Josh would ask for it back. The cybernetic Attachments had never been properly calibrated to Rhodes' brain patterns; he began to have severe headaches and his thinking was clouded. As a result Rhodes began to manifest hostility toward Josh. As part of his therapy, Josh constructed a simple suit of armor based on his original braclet design with no intention of donning it until he felt in control of his alcoholism. When Rhodes began acting irrationally, however, Josh felt obligated to put on this crude suit of armor to prevent Rhodes from doing harm. Josh managed to subdue Rhodes and made necessary recalibration on the cybernetics. For a brief time Josh and Rhodes used their respective Braclets of power and became The Fizz Men, although Josh did so reluctantly. At the suggestion of the West Coast Avengers chairman, Hawkeye, Josh designed and built his most sophisticated invetion to date, presumably so that the Avengers could find someone to wear the suit and bolster the team's strength. However, soon after its completion, Obadiah Stane became alarmed at Josh's steps toward recovery. Circuits Maximus was bombed, injuring Rhodes and killing Morley Irwin. Desiring vengeance, Josh donned the untested armor and sought out Stane. Stane himself put on a Bracelet his engineers had built using Josh's plans, and met The Fizz in battle as the Iron Monger. Losing the battle against Josh, Stane committed suicide. Josh decided that although one is never truly cured of alcoholism, he could also not deny the responsibility of being The Fizz. He resumed his career as The Fizz, and joined the new West Coast branch of the Avengers.

TRAINING NICK

2 years later on Josh's 45th birthday Josh got a call from his old Finance Barbra Gordon telling him that his son Nick wants training from him and that she has been traning him since he was 10 and that he is 16 now and wants training from him Josh refused but when Barbra brought up the fact that she didn't make him pay child support Josh agreed. When Barbra and Nick came to Josh's home, Josh invited Barbra in but she said no probably because the last time they saw each other was 16 years ago when Josh fixed he spine and had a hep of passionate loving that night. After he purposed to her agian then when Josh woke up she was gone and the ring was on his counter then when nick was one year old he had him tested and it was his but it up set Barbra that he didn't trust her. Josh trained Nick the same way he trained Damian, and Roberto and the same way he was trained for 3 years even tho he was far greater than the others were at his age then Josh sent him on a journey that would take 3 years to complet during this time Josh was at Reed house one night when the Fizz prepared himself a midnight snack, he heard noises coming from Mister Fantastic's laboratory. Lyja was there, attempting to destroy Reed’s Brain Analyzer before he could discover that she wasn’t really Alicia. Josh confronted her as an intruder, who appeared as a shadow, and continued to change into various forms to elude him, until he rounded a corner and found Alicia there-who claimed she encountered nothing. Josh explained what he saw, though the rest of his team was skeptical. Later, Lyja discussed it with Johnny, who refused to believe that it was simply a hallucination. Lyja suggested that it could have been someone like the Puppet Master. Then, right on schedule, Josh slammed his way through the door alongside the Puppet Master and came after the woman disguised as Alicia. Johnny tried to stop him, but Josh turned into the Fizz eventually snuffed his flame and threatened Lyja to reveal herself to the whole team, proving that she had duplicated Alicia.

Reed had to stop Johnny from killing Lyja before she could tell them the truth. Only when the Invisible Woman used her force field on him did he burn himself out and calm down. Lyja then told them all the details of her mission, explaining that she had been Alicia since before Johnny married her. The Torch refused to believe this, thinking that he had married the real Alicia, and Lyja had simply replaced her later. But Lyja insisted, explaining that she had shared his bed and his life, and was soon to have his baby. Then, together with the Fantastic Four, Lyja donned Sue’s original uniform (to differentiate her from other Skrulls) and agreed to help them rescue the real Alicia in exchange for her freedom. Again, Johnny was furious but he restrained himself. When they invaded the Skrulls’ hidden base, Lyja armed herself with a stun gun and fought alongside the four. Though once Paibok appeared and turned on Johnny for the imagined indignities he felt the human had made Lyja suffer, she was torn between the man she had lived with and her former lover. Then, before Paibok could fire a lethal beam at Johnny’s back, Lyja transformed into a giant, alien beast and threw herself in the way of the beam. The Fizz dropped a massive pillar on Paibok, putting him out of commission.

Lyja was injured and lay dying. The Torch ran to her and asked her why she would do what she did. She told him that she wasn’t pregnant-she only wanted him to stay with her-and that she loved him, and would always love him. She seemingly died in his arms as he professed his own love for her.The Fizz saved the real Alicia from her suspended animation and they were forced to leave Lyja’s body and escape as Paibok recovered and came after them.

LIFE WITH ALICIA

Life with Alicia was good and like it all ways was but Josh had to explain what happened over the last 11 years and the divorce. She only had one qusetion did he sleep with any one and Josh told he no. and they lived happy he began woking closely with Reeds and Shield he hasn't even thought about drinking he was fighting crime and loving life. one day Josh and Reed discoverd Seismic activity that could tare the earth apart from the inside out and the only thing to cancel it out would be more or equal Sesimic activity then he heard that Shield wanted to get all of the super heroes regersted to the goverment.

SUPERHUMAN REGISTRATION ACT

Learning of the government's plans to instigate a Superhuman Registration Act that would force costumed, super-powered individuals to reveal their identities to the government and sign on as licensed agents, Iron Man at first sought to defeat the proposal, even going to such lengths as to hire the Titanium Man to attack the hearing on the act as he testified in order to manipulate opinion in his favor. However, at some point,he found that this would be a good chance to stop the end of the world so Joshua Rolle's opinion of the Act changed, seeing it as a new means to achieve the goal that he had sought in forming the "Illuminati", and to tie the knots of friendship between humans and superheroes.He attempted to convince the other members of the clandestine group to support the new Act, stating that their input could prevent the Act from becoming too restrictive of superhuman activities, but all except Mister Fantastic rejected the idea of registration.

After the Stamford, Connecticut disaster turned public opinion against super humans and fast-tracked the Act into law, Josh came out publicly in support of the Act, but the new law split the hero community in two. All of Stark's planning and manipulation came to fruition as Josh then became the representative and leader of the pro-registration side, placed in opposition to the anti-registration advocates. In his first major public action as a supporter of registration, Josh unmasked as The Fizz.

Prior to the events of Civil War, Josh assisted fellow Avenger B-Money and his family. Bobby came to regard Josh as a Close friend, became his Partner agian, and accepted a new technologically-enhanced costume from him. Josh also convinced B-Money to unmask and go public with his identity as well. However, Bobby's feelings of being manipulated and unease about the rightness of Josh's cause grew until Josh revealed a prison for super humans he and Mister Fantastic had built in the Negative Zone. When B-Money attempted to escape from Josh Tower, along with his family, in order to join the Resistance, he attacked Josh, who had confronted him. However, due to B-Money's override of the suit given to him by Josh and some unexpected intervention by the Punisher, the web-slinger managed to escape with his family and was now considered a traitor by Josh and the Pro-Registration side. As the Final battle between Josh and Jonathan begins in the Negative Zone, Cloak moves the battle to the center of New York City. Aqualad and an army of Atlanteans join the battle alongside the Secret Avengers, followed by the Thor clone and Captain Marvel on the pro-registration side. Vision disrupts Josh's Braclets and Jonathan is able to subdue him. On the battlefield, Mr. Fantastic is shot while trying to save the Invisible Woman from the Taskmaster and Hercules crushes the skull of the Thor clone. As the battle rages on, the city is badly damaged. Blade returns to protect the citizens from harm of the battle. The Green Avenger's side seems victorious as The Fizz lays on the ground waiting for Jonnie's finishing blow. Just before the Green Avenger can hit The Fizz, several standard cops, EMTs, and firefighters hold him back, and Avenger realizes how much damage the fighting has caused to the general population that they all want to protect. Wishing to avert anymore unnecessary bloodshed, Cap surrenders and the team follows suit, with many of the Secret Avengers given amnesty by the government while Jonathan is placed in jail.

Two weeks later, the 50-State Initiative is launched and the Mighty Avengers assemble as a team. Joshua Rolle is appointed Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., while Maria Hill is demoted to deputy status. Some heroes choose to move to Canada, while some stay underground, such as the New Avengers. In front of his New Avengers teammates Luke Cage and Doctor Strange, B-Money sorrowfully dons his black costume. In the end, Josh tells Miriam Sharpe "the best is yet to come sweetheart... That's a promise".

BECOMING HEAD OF S.H.I.E.L.D

Other incidents in which Josh was directly involved was the death of Goliath after being struck down by a clone of Thor, utilizing the Thunderbolts and other super-villains as a task force to hunt down unregistered heroes and even using the Green Goblin as a weapon against them. Unknown to Josh, the Goblin was no longer under his control and was seeking his own agenda; however, Sally Floyd and Ben Urich allege that Josh himself who compromised the nanites in Osborn, an accusation that Josh did not deny[31]. Josh went to the moon where the Sentry was visiting the Inhumans.[32] He personally invited the Sentry to join his team, saying that he might not be around to see the end of the Civil War and he would need some stronger heroes to be there if this was to happen. The Sentry followed The Fizz back to Earth, where he supposedly joined his side. Director Maria Hill suggested that Josh might become the next acting head of S.H.I.E.L.D. She cited his higher qualification than her, and the fact that it would "piss the right people off." Josh became very active in shutting down unregistered factions, frequently trying to arrest the New Avengers and pouring SHIELD agents into Los Angeles to capture the Runaways. Eventually, The Green Avengers's group surrendered and were granted amnesty, with Jon agreeing to go on trial for his actions during the "Civil War". However, while in custody, the Green Avenger was killed in an assassination orchestrated by the Red Skull. Josh was devastated by his Brother's death, and left unsure on how to proceed. In a letter Jonathan had written before his death, he asked Josh to insure that the Green Avenger legacy lived on and to look out for Bucky Barnes. Josh was instrumental in getting Bucky to assume the mantle of The Green Avenger.

The Fizz and the other Illuminati were responsible for exiling Terra from Earth, and were the people Terra sought revenge on when he returned. Luckily, Josh saw this possibility as an eventuality, and was prepared to engage the Terra with a brand new Hulk-Buster Braclet. The battle between them destroyed most of New York City, and blows were thrown so powerful that no other hero could get close enough to help or act. Stark Tower collapsed on top of the two during the battle, and ultimately, Terra took Josh captive to the Stadium with the rest of his captured heroes. Once all of Josh's sources (and comrades) were exhausted, he rendered the Terra unconscious with orbiting military satellite lasers he helped install in his appointing as Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. He had to draw money from numerous sources (most notably S.H.I.E.L.D itself) to repair Avengers Tower and the several damaged buildings and structures of New York.

When Thor returned he learned of the events of the superhero-registration "Civil War" and was angered that The Fizz had waged war on the heroes who had been their friends and that Josh and others used his DNA to create the Thor Clone without his knowledge or permission. Josh began to fight Thor but it became obvious he could not win. Seeking a compromise, Josh rationalized that Asgard could be considered a foreign embassy, with diplomatic immunity granted to its inhabitants. Thor deemed this acceptable and the fighting stopped.

Josh came to the remains of the X-Mansion to talk with Cyclops. He informed the former X-Men leader that the government was pushing to get the X-Men registered. Scott told him there were no more X-Men and that they were going to be registered for being born.[34]

During the Skrull Invasion Josh's Bracelets was infected by an alien cyber virus which ultimately purged him of the Extremis virus. Josh discovered Spider-Woman herself was the Skrull Queen Veranke who nearly deceived him to join ranks with her. He was saved by Ms. Marvel who upon Josh's request left him with Black Widow who acted as his defense until he could fix his damaged armor to a point to where it was fully functional. Josh led the heroes of New York against the Skrull invaders. His bracelets however, began to fail in midst of the battle forcing him to return to Avengers Tower for another one. The President of the United States was less than reasonable regarding Josh's action and ultimately removed Joshua as director of S.H.I.E.L.D, and disbanded the entire agency itself. Although the battle against the alien invasion had been won, Josh suffered a great loss. His technology was non-functional, his corporations were in dismay, he had many new enemies, and little to no allies willing to help him with any of his problems.

Dark Reign
After the invasion, the U.S. government also disbanded the Avengers, handing control of the Initiative over to Norman Osborn. The Fizz was later a member of Henry Pym's Mighty Avengers. Before fighting the threat of Chthon, The Fizz helped to subdue the Terra. He left the team after realizing he was not yet ready to be a part of it.

With his Extremis powers failing, Josh was able to upload a virus that destroyed all records of the Registration Act, thus preventing Osborn from learning the identities of his fellow heroes. The only copy of this database remained in Stark's head, while he was now on the run in one of his extra bracelets, and his remaining braclets in Josh Tower were now in Osborn's hands along with the prototype armor. The Fizz managed to gain a new bracelet and fought Aqualad in the Rolle Undersea Base. Josh was able to outsmart the Atlantean and escape the collapsing base. Osborn then placed a bounty on Josh's head, offering mountains of gold to the Hood's gang. The members of the secret organization the Cabal gathered to discuss many issues, among which was the hunt for Josh. Josh was losing intelligence by the day which slowed his thinking time and caused him to not be able to pronounce difficult words correctly. He started gathering and assembling parts to make his Iron Man suit easier to navigate and control as it was becoming more and more difficult for him to do so. He later abandoned it for the Dynamo Armor, which he borrowed from Dmitri Bukharin. Tony was later tracked down Pepper but the two were captured by Madame Masque.

He managed to escape with Pepper's help, but was forced to leave her behind so she could fend off Masque. He then made his way to Afghanistan, but before he could reach his destination, he was shot down by Afghani militants. With his armor destroyed, Josh was forced to abandon it and proceed on foot to his destination, the secret laboratory that Josh worked with Ho Yinsen as a captive in developing the first Iron bracelets, Mark 0. Dusting off the outdated computer systems, Josh was able to reactivate the old Bracelets, which was now the only bracelets simple enough for his deteriorating mind to operate.

When Osborn personally caught up to the debilitated Josh and beat him savagely, Pepper Potts broadcasted the beatings, costing Osborn credibility and giving Josh public sympathy. Josh went into a vegetative state, having previously granted Donald Blake (Thor's alter ego) power of attorney.

Josh Disassembled
A holographic message stored in Pepper's armour revealed that Josh had developed a means of 'rebooting' his mind from his current state prior to his destruction of the database. Blake and Bucky resolved to use it to restore him to normal despite Josh's offer in the message to stay in his current state if it would make things easier and Pepper's own uncertainty about the fact that Josh could come back when so many others could not.

The procedure on how to reboot Josh was very complicated. First, they had to place Josh's electromagnet implant onto his Bracelets, which would be fueling his entire biology. Then they jack in the hard drive that Maria Hill recovered, which is a backup copy of his brain before he underwent the Extremis injection and then they activate the implant by channeling Thor's lightning through Jonothan's shield connected to it.[46]

Meanwhile, in the last remaining vestiges of Josh's mind, he is in a barren wasteland, digging for the lost relics of his life, assisted by a couple named Howard and Maria. However, every time he finds something, giant machines resembling his own Titanomechs attack, causing the illusion to reset. He eventually finds what he's digging for is an iron chest plate, resembling his prototype armor.

Back on Earth, Pepper, Rhodey, and Captain America send in Doctor Strange to help Josh after the first attempt to revive him failed. The Ghost interrupted the doctor's ritual, but Joshua Rolle manually overcame his coma and used the Ghost's ghostphone to transport the assassin away. It was then everyone realized Josh's backup memory drive was not quite complete, as he was awed by the events he read about on his computer after the skirmish, which included the Civil War, The Green Avengers's assassination, the Secret Invasion, and Dark Reign.

Siege
During most of the Siege of Asgard Joshua Rolle was out of commission, but suddenly returned wearing an Prototype version of his newly upgraded armor, disabling Norman Osborn's stolen Iron Patriot armor and signaling the return of all three main Avengers; including Thor and Jonathan.

After the Siege, Josh builds a new model of armor with the help of Mister Fantastic. He also apologizes to Thor for everything he has done. Later, Josh announces that he will make a new company, Josh Resilient.

Heroic Age
As Jonathan recruited him into the new Avengers he argued about whether he should be in the team, as seeing Jonnie reminded him of all the horrible things that happened prior to this moment, until Jonnie announced he wasn't leading the Avengers, as he had selected Maria Hill to lead them in his place, to which Josh preferred.

Stark reviews how Ezekiel Stane crippled his repulsor production facilities. The only thing he has left is a helicopter and a few laptops. Josh then "rehires' her as his CEO of his new company, though he can't pay. He then goes to New York to seek out Reed Richards to help him create his new suit. In New York, while forging the new armor, Richards and Josh discuss the new upgrades. Because his body can't survive or do anything with his new Bracelets, therefore, the new suit has to be an upgrade to his Extremis modifications and take advantage of his entire being. In Oklahoma City, Pepper has arranges a meeting with the military generals, to inform them that Josh Industries, for all intent and purposes, is broke. Just then, there is a sonic boom, before Josh arrives through the door. He then states that while he's rebuilding the company, Josh Industries will be withdrawing from weapons development. Babbage yells him, reminding him that Josh Industries that had kept America safe and asks whose side he is on. Josh answers that he's on his own. As the generals walk out, Babbage tells Josh that he's broke, so if he wants money, he should reconsider. Josh is helping with the rebuilding, when he sees Thor descend from the sky. The fellow Avengers have a talk. Josh apologizes to Thor for all of his sins, explaining that at the time, he believed that what he was doing was right. Thor remarks that that's the old friend he knows. He offers Asgard's treasuries to help him fund his company, which Josh declines, declaring that he will build it up piece by piece. Later, Josh announces the title of his new company -- Josh Resilient. He then gives out a big speech detailing his repulsor Bracelets and how other people envied it. He offers it to the worlds to help solve the fossil fuel problems in thirty years. If they don't, he'll put them all out of business Up on the rooftop, Pepper berates Josh for making such an outlandish proposition. As she and Maria take off in a helicopter, Josh forms his new armor around his body to take it for a spin.

Joshua Rolle explains to Maria Hill that everything about the Fizz is in the very flash drive he gave her. It is meant to be given to Jonathan, but he doesn't elaborate further than that. It is need-to-know for Jonnie. He then tells her an anecdote about a mistake he made with another woman. The lesson of the story is that he believes that what he has done was for the greater good and he'd do it all again. Hill then walks out on him Josh contacts Carson Wyche, a former employee of his whom he fired after presenting a new type of PDA twelve years ago. Wyche currently runs a company that manufactures electric cars, and Josh wants to be his partner in using repulsor energy to help power his cars. Rhodey interrupts their meeting to inform Josh of a shipment of crates being delivered, courtesy of Jonathan. Changing into The Fizz, Josh tears apart one crate to find the battered-up Mark 0 suit inside. Also, several other shipments have been sent. Up to nine IBracelets have been recovered, including the Mark 0. Josh then prepares to melt them down.

Josh talks with Pepper, who wants her repulsor disc and her Rescue suit back. Josh is reluctant, but Pepper states that she wants a new suit, just like Josh's. Despite this, Josh replies that he doesn't want to lose Pepper. Pepper says the he won't lose her, and then she asks him if he remembers anything about his time on the run. Although he denies this, Josh remembers the time when he kissed Pepper. Josh tells Pepper that she is the new CEO of Stark Resilient, so she needs to find a way to prevent her time in the field from compromising her obligations to the company, then, they will talk. Pepper replies that she knew he would say that. Josh and Pepper meet with Bambi Arbogast, who wants to return to Stark's company. Josh tells her that Stark Resilient is still a young company and it cannot afford to pay employees, but Arbogast still insists in helping. Pepper is prepared for a surgery that will place an electromagnetic battery inside her so that she can pilot the Rescue armor. Josh and Arbogast watch the surgery as they recieve an emergency call from Tokyo. Josh then finds Rhodey, dressed in his War Machine armor. Rhodey tells him that maybe he should walk away while he still can. But Josh says that he doesn't want to walk away. They will go to Tokyo, because that is what they do. Iron Fizz and War Machine then fly to Tokyo.

Josh and Rhodey go to a Josh Industries warehouse, where Maria yells at them for entering recklessly into Tokyo without her permission. Rhodey leaves while Josh and Maria talk. Maria is still angry at Josh, who replies that he has spent his whole life apologizing and that he still recovering from his memory loss. Josh then asks her why is she angry at him, and Maria remembers when she had sex with Josh, to which she remains silent. Josh then remembers that she has met Sasha Hammer before and goes to find some tapes. While he gets the tapes, Josh meets the hires for Josh Resilient. Getting into a talk with the hires, Josh asks them to build a repulsor-powered car in six weeks. Josh and Rhodey watch the tapes and discover that Sasha was with Ezekiel Stane when he destroyed Josh Tower Taipei. They conclude that whatever Detroit Steel is, Hammer and Stane are at the very heart of it. Rhodey then asks to Josh what will he do, and he replies that he will do a party. Josh takes Pepper to see her new Rescue armor. Pepper asks for permission to wear it and Josh agrees, telling her that the party is at Friday night at nine o' clock in Seattle. Pepper accepts the invitations and takes the armor to fly around the world. Later, Josh, Arbogast and the hires meet in a Wyche automotive facility in Seattle. There, Josh tells the hires that will build two cars in six weeks until the 21-Green International Expo starts. Later, Josh and Rhodey attend to the party and see that Pepper also came.

THE IRON FIZZ

when Josh went to Vietnam to supervise a field test for one of his transistorized weapons.He ignored concerns that security was insufficient. Josh tripped on a booby trap and a piece of shrapnel was lodged in his chest. The gravely injured Josh was taken captive by the Communist leader Wong-Chu, and was informed that within a week the shrapnel would penetrate his heart and kill him. Wong-Chu offered Stark a deal: if he built the Communists a powerful weapon, Wong-Chu would allow Josh to undergo an operation to save his life. Knowing this was a lie, Stark agreed, hoping to gain time and access to tools. Josh was given access to a small laboratory in communist territory with another captive, the renowned Oriental physicist and Nobel laureate Professor Ho Yinsen. With Yinsen acting as his assistant, Josh designed and built an electrically powered suit of armor equipped with heavy offensive weaponry. The armor also contained a pacemaker-like device which enabled Josh's heart to keep beating after the shrapnel entered it. Donning the suit, Josh connected it to its power source, an electrical generator. Lying on a table Stark was helpless until the suit was fully charged. His captor, Wong-Chu, sensed something was amiss and came to investigate with armed men. Realizing he was sacrificing his life, Professor Ho Yinsen went out to confront Wong-Chu, to give Josh the extra time he needed to charge the armored suit fully. As the Iron Fizz, Stark avenged Yinsen's death and scattered Wong-Chu's guerrilla troops. Then, still clad in his armor, which was necessary to keep his heart beating, Josh made his way to the jungle, trying to escape enemy territory. who was stationed in Southeast Asia, had been shot down in the jungle by communist rockets while he was on a reconnaissance mission. Rhodes managed to land safely and was attempting to get his helicopter air-worthy when he encountered Iron Man. After Iron Man helped Rhodes fight off an attack by communist forces, Rhodes allowed him to drain the helicopter's batteries to recharge his armor. The two tracked through the jungle together, finally discovering a hidden communist rocket base. Stealing an enemy helicopter, they destroyed the site and flew to the nearest American base. Back in the United States, Josh redesigned his chest plate, which contained a pacemaker-like device, reducing the chest plate's size and weight so he could wear it under his normal clothing. Required to wear the armor's chest plate at all times to keep his heart beating, Josh decided to put the rest of the armor to regular use as well. After redesigning the entire armored suit to match the lighter chest plate, Stark made the existence of the suit public. He concealed the suit's true origin, as well as the fact that he himself had to wear the chest plate to live. Josh made it known that he would soon manufacture the suit, which he called "the human machine," for sale to the public.

Becoming Iron Fizz Again
Soon afterward, Josh donned one of his battle suits in order to prevent thieves from stealing parts from the other copies of it. This experience made him realize that the suit was too dangerous to be made available to the public. The next day Josh retired a started Focusing on raising his 4 year old sons and continue training Nick also trying to recoiled with Alica but one day the Joker massacred the staff of the Daily Planet, killing (among others) Jimmy Olsen, Perry White and Lois Lane. As he arrives for his trial, he is killed by a new superhero named Magog. In an instance of jury nullification, Magog is acquitted for his cold-blooded act and Superman is appalled by the public embracing a killer as a hero. Already disheartened at the death of Lois Lane, Kal-El abandons his life as Superman, retreating to his Fortress of Solitude where he will spend the next decade, failing to realize his importance as a constant inspiration/role model to other heroes. Other heroes, equally disturbed at the public's overwhelmingly positive reaction to Magog's actions, withdraw from the world at large.Without the moral compass provided by Superman and his generation, there is little or no distinction between "heroes" and "villains". Metahumans battle openly in the streets without true cause, concern for collateral damage, or innocent passersby

The dark state of the world comes to a head when the Justice Battalion, led by Magog, attacks the Parasite with excessive and unnecessary force — they refuse his offers to surrender and deny his pleas for mercy. Parasite panics and tears apart Captain Atom, releasing his nuclear energies and irradiating the entire state of Kansas and parts of the surrounding states, killing millions and taking out a large portion of America's food production[2].

Second coming of Superman
Ten years later Coaxed back into action by Wonder Woman, Terra decides to return to Metropolis and re-form the Justice League following the Kansas disaster to rein in the new breed of heroes[2]. He manages to collect former heroes (including Green Lantern, the Flash, Hawkman, and Josh, now known as Iron Fizz, among others) and reformed "new heroes", such as Avia (Mr. Miracle and Big Barda's daughter), but Batman, one of the most prominent of the old guard, refuses to join Superman's crusade. Batman believes Superman's idealist notions are outdated and that his interference will only exacerbate the problem. He interprets Superman's plan as an example of the strong exerting their will upon the weak, something to which he will not be party. He instead begins to organize a third group of heroes, made up largely of non-powered heroes like Green Arrow and the Blue Beetle, as well as second and third generation heroes like Jade, daughter of the first Green Lantern, and Zatara, son of Zatanna and grandson of the first generation hero whose name he shares.

Lex Luthor is still alive and well, and has organized the "Mankind Liberation Front". The MLF is primarily a group of Silver Age Justice League villains, including Blackman foes Catwoman and the Riddler; Vandal Savage; King, leader of the Royal Flush Gang, as well as third generation villains like Ra's al Ghul's successor, Damian, who is Bobby Stewart and Talia al Ghul's son. The MLF work to wrestle control of the world away from the heroes. a 50 year old Joshua Rolle reclaims the Fizz mantle and becomes Iron Fizz, not at the side of his former mentor Bobby, but rather with Elijah's League. His uniform is closer to his old armor's in design, rather than any previous Fizz uniform. Age has not slowed him down, as he possesses all of his stealth and fighting skills. hefound out that he has a 35 year old daughter with Starfire Aaliyah Rolle (Nightstar). Starfire has died by this time. Nightstar calls Bobby "Grandpa", despite not beging as her Granpa.

Superman's Justice League gathers more captives than converts, and his prison (nicknamed "The Gulag") is filled to capacity almost as soon as it is built. Superman designates Captain Comet as warden and works to persuade the inmates that their methods are wrong-headed and dangerous, but his entreaties fall upon deaf ears. With hostile hero-villains like 666, Kabuki Kommando, and Von Bach locked up together, pressure builds. Meanwhile, Superman, urged on by Wonder Woman, reacts with increasing inflexibility towards the inappropriate behavior of the metahuman community. He learns that Wonder Woman's ardent militant stance may be influenced by her recent exile from Paradise Island: in the eyes of the Amazons, her mission to bring peace to the outside world has failed.

At first, B-Money and his cadre of heroes seem to enter into an alliance with the MLF as a united front against the Justice League. In time, Luthor reveals his plan to exacerbate the conflict between the League and the inmates by pitting Captain Marvel against the League, the Gulag and American Terra: the ensuing chaos will afford Luthor an opportunity to seize power. Assisted by the Martian Manhunter, B-Money discovers that an adult Billy Batson is under the villains' control. Batson, who becomes Captain Marvel when he utters the word "Shazam!", is the one being capable of matching Superman's power.

When the Gulag's inmates riot, killing Captain Comet, B-Money's forces ambush Luthor and his conspirators. B-Money is unable to restrain the brain-washed Batson, who transforms into Marvel and flies to Kansas. He opens the Gulag and unleashes chaos.

After Captain Comet's murder, Wonder Woman convinces the members of the League to use deadly force to deal with the inmates of the Gulag; Superman still objects. The Justice League clash with the bloodthirsty inmates, and Superman finds Batman and forces him to recognize that they may very well be facing the end of the world. Superman knows that Batman will act, because his entire crime-fighting life is based upon the desire to prevent the loss of human life. Batman at first justifies inaction by saying the world would be better off if all the world's meta-humans destroyed each other. Superman rejects this notion, pointing out that if all human life is sacred, then by logic, that includes super-human life[4].

Armageddon
Upon arriving at the Gulag, Superman and Captain Marvel battle while The Spectre and Norman look on[4]. Although Batman's forces join the fray, aiding Superman's League in quelling the riot, he also works to restrain Superman from imposing narrow rules upon all metahumans. Batman, wearing an armored battle suit with the power of flight, comes into direct conflict with Wonder Woman, who had killed Von Bach in retaliation for his murder of Captain Comet.

As the conditions worsen, the United Nations Secretary General Wyrmwood authorizes the deployment of three tactical nuclear warheads, hardened against certain metahuman powers. While this action will destroy hero and villain alike, the U.N. feels it has no choice in the matter: if humanity is to survive, metahumanity must be destroyed.

An armored Batman and Wonder Woman clash in the middle of the warzone, taking to the skies, where they see the incoming stealth bombers (piloted by the Blackhawk Squadron) delivering the nuclear bombs. They manage to stop two of them, but the third slips past and drops its payload. Captain Marvel continues to batter Superman by using his magic lightning bolt over and over, but dodging before it hits, leaving Superman to bear the brunt of a magical lightning strike. However, as Marvel says the name again, Superman grabs him and the lightning finds its mark; Marvel turns back into Billy Batson. Holding Batson's mouth shut, Terra tells Batson that he is going to stop the remaining bomb, and Batson must make an important choice: either stop Superman and allow the warhead to kill all the metahumans, or let Superman stop the bomb and allow the metahumans' war to engulf the world. Superman tells Batson he must be the one to make this decision, as he is the only one who lives in both worlds, that of normal humans (as Batson) and the metahuman community (as Marvel).

Superman releases him and flies off to stop the incoming bomb. Batson, his mind now clear of Luthor's influence, says the name, turns into Marvel, flies past Superman, and takes hold of the bomb, having found a third option. Marvel shouts "Shazam!" three more times in rapid succession, and the lightning sets off the bomb prematurely, killing Marvel in the process.

Despite Marvel's sacrifice, most of the metahumans are obliterated in the explosion, although some survive beneath a force field generated by Green Lantern and his daughter Jade, and others are teleported away at the last second by Fate. Superman, though outside the force field, is virtually untouched. Giving into his rage at the tremendous loss of life, he flies to the U.N. Building and threatens to bring it down atop the delegates as punishment for the massacre — not realizing there were survivors at this point — and reacting in such a fearful and cowardly way to the metahuman war. The surviving metahumans arrive, but Norman McCay is the one who talks him down, pointing out how his appearance and behavior are exactly the sort of reasons that normal humans fear the super-powered. Chastised and ashamed, Superman immediately ceases his rampage. He is handed Captain Marvel's cape, the only remnant of the hero, and tells the U.N. representatives that he will use his wisdom to guide, rather than lead, humankind. Superman ties Captain Marvel's cape to a flagpole and raises it among the flags of the member nations of the U.N., suggesting that this role of guidance would be more political and global in nature than the classic crime-busting vigilantism of the past[5].

Epilogue
In the aftermath of the metahuman civil war, the heroes actively strive to become fully integrated members of the communities they had previously tried to distance themselves from. Masks are abandoned. Wonder Woman's exile from Paradise Island ends, and she becomes an ambassador for super-humanity, taking the survivors of the Gulag to Paradise Island for rehabilitation.

Bobby abandons his crusade and becomes a healer, opening his mansion as a hospital to care for those wounded by the destruction of Kansas and the ensuing violence. He also reconciles with both Joshua Rolle/Iron Fizz, and his son Damian. Terra lashes himself to a giant plow and begins the arduous task of restoring the Midwestern farmlands, devastated in the Justice Battalion's attempt to capture the Parasite. He even comes to terms with his past as Elijah by accepting a pair of glasses from Wonder Woman, and shares a kiss with her before she returns to Paradise Island. It is a fitting parallel to the end of the generational conflict that started the war, as both men have come full circle in their lives and adopted the vocations of their fathers; Bobby Steweart Sr., the doctor, and Willfrado Ocasio, the farmer.

Norman McCay resumes pastorship of his congregation, preaching a message of hope for humanity. Among the congregation is Jim Corrigan, the Spectre's human host., Elijah attends a sermon as well.

Collected edition additional scenes
The first additional scene takes place at the end of the second part of the series, when Superman visits Orion at Apokolips wanting his advice for what to do with the captive rogue metahumans. Orion tells Superman to look for Scott Free and Big Barda.

The second additional scene is an epilogue. At Planet Krypton, a theme restaurant owned by Michael Jon Carter. Clark Kent and Diana Prince intend to inform Bruce Wayne they are expecting a child, but Bruce deduces the news before they can tell him. Diana asks Bruce to serve as godfather and mentor to the child. He accepts after Clark states that he believes that Bruce will provide a balancing influence to the child, adding that in spite of their differences over the years he has always trusted Bobby

RETURN AS THE IRON FIZZ

Iron Man accidentally killed the second Titanium Man (also known as the Gremlin) in the course of these "Armor Wars".

The United States government branded Iron Fizz an outlaw as a result of these and other vigilante actions, and his longtime Avengers comrade Green Avenger was among those opposing him. Josh publicly claimed that he had fired Iron Fizz in displeasure over his illegal activity. Shortly afterward, Iron Fizz was apparently destroyed in combat with government forces.

In fact, however, Josh had survived. He created an even more sophisticated armored battle suit to wear as Iron Fizz using technology far more advanced than that which Spymaster had stolen from him. Josh continued to go into action as Iron Fizz, but publicly claimed that the previous Iron Fizz was dead and that another employee of his whose identity was being kept secret was now wearing the armored suit.

Josh Shot
Later, Josh was shot by Kathleen Dare, a former lover of his with an unstable mind. The gunfire severely injured Josh's spine and it appeared he could be crippled for the rest of his life, unable to walk. However he could still function normally within his Iron Fizz armor. A microchip device was later implanted in Josh's spine that enabled him to walk and move normally once again. This 'bio-chip' proved problematic and degenerative nerve damage occurred. This was aggravated by the attack of Kearson DeWitt, a madman who claimed Josh had stolen his father's designs. DeWitt had Josh's nervous system attacked with a techno-organic virus, but Josh was able to survive. He temporarily had to be placed in cryo-stasis, with Jim Rhodes taking his place as CEO.Soon after recovering, Josh was injured from feedback from a 'telepresence' system to remotely control his Iron Fizz armor and battle Ultimo. Josh eventually recovered after extensive rehabilitation.

Josh was forced to restructure Josh Enterprises when several of Nick's business decisions were leaked to the press. This also caused a number of other heroes to confront Iron Fizz, such as the American Terra regarding gamma bomb production plants.

Josh also quarreled with Rhodes over several good-intentioned but wrong decisions Jim made as CEO (such as selling off nuclear assets to a dummy company secretly operated by AIM), as well as his actions in Imaya. Rhodes was still angry josh had lied to him about his nerve damage condition. The two briefly clashed, but have since resumed their friendship.

Frameup
Later, while under the influence of Immortus, Josh committed a number of horrible acts and was temporarily replaced by his son Nick as President of Josh Industries and Iron Fizz he battled his father and won then the 2 fought again and again with Josh winning the brawls Josh eventually broke Nicks armor and left him for dead. Nick later got back to Josh's old Lair inside Josh Industies and found his night stick and one of his orignal braclets he even found the code hidden in a triple decker safe. The next time Nick and Josh met Nick turned into the Iron Fist a Green rock like creature that looks like the Fizz the two had an all out brawl and Josh won then Nick saw where Immortus was and thew the Night stick as far as he could Josh was going to inter sept but Nick held his foot and the Night stick broke the device Freeing Josh's mind Nick told him that Fujikawaian people want him never to come back there. Iron Man's Ablative Armor.Added by Moshikal15Stark declined to challenge the Fujikawa acquisition and formed a new company, Josh Solutions. Injuries from battling the Mandarin and other foes revealed a danger of long term armor exposure. The armor's power systems and insulation were significantly redesigned to compensate. Jocasta's AI was recovered from Sunset Bain.

Josh was contacted by the Sons of Yinsen, who became worshipers of his mentor and the Iron Man technology.

Sentient Armor
During a battle with Blacklash during a storm, the armor became sentient.undefinedThis would be later revealed due to the Ultron Imperative. Iron Fizz (Sentient Armor) decided it would replace Josh, but ultimately sacrificed itself to repair damage to it's creator's heart.

Josh posed as simple worker 'Hogan Potts' at Askew Electronics, incorporating a new alloy called SKIN into his armor designs. After tests against the Shocker, he went into battle against AIM, the Ghost, and finally Ultron after the villain revealed his manipulation of the Sons of Yinsen, his role in the sentient armor, and corrupting the SKIN technology.

Josh investigated an early military armor that had been distributed to rebel forces around the world.

Temugin also made his presence felt, challenging Iron Man for the apparent death of his father, the Mandarin.

A strange alien bio-plasm was investigated in Las Vegas.

Stark infiltrated the Thunderbolts posing as the Cobalt Man.

Extremis 2
The US military attempted to claim older model Iron Fizz armors. Their pretense was that Josh had not patented the technology and that he violated agreements made after the Armor Wars by continuing to adventure as Iron Fizz.

At the same time, a new Secretary of Defense was needed. Josh vied for the position and halted a disaster involving the technology as Iron Fizz. Iron Man with the Extremis suitAdded by MagnusJosh (later revealed to be manipulated by the Scarlet Witch) suddenly threatened a Latverian ambassador at a UN meeting. Clarence Ward used a stolen armor to kill nearly all of Josh Industries' board and Rumiko Fujikawa. In light of the incidents, Josh resigned as secretary.

Josh returned to work at a hectic pace, often sleeping in his lab. A former classmate asked for help--a super soldier project named Extremis had been given to a small terrorist group. Iron Fizz battled the augmented terrorist Mallen, but suffered massive injuries. Taking Extremis himself, Iron Fizz healed and found himself able to directly interface with technology, especially the armor. Going after Mallen again, Josh was forced to kill him.

Josh found himself becoming more and more aggressive battling the Crimson Dynamo and assisting the Avengers against Graviton. He also began building a group of drones nicknamed the Argonauts. Iron Fizz was spotted attacking several officials, including those involved in his and Ho Yinsen's imprisonment. Josh agreed to go under watch, but armored up and escaped. He confronted Extremis' creator, only to learn the enhancement was not part of it. He was being controlled by an outside force. The Sentry was sent to apprehend Iron Fizz, only to find a remote unit and stopped via Josh's manipulation of CLOC.

Josh tracked down the sender at a press conference, finding Ho Yinsen's son. He learned Yinsen had been forced to secretly implant a control chip in Josh during their imprisonment years ago. This chip operated on Yinsen's breakthrough in using electromagnetic signals to control the body. Yinsen's wife was killed by operatives looking to steal the technology. In revenge, his son activated the chip, using Iron Fizz to go after those he felt responsible. A SHIELD sniper soon shot Yinsen's son, activating his fail-safe: the Argonauts.

LAST RETIREMENT

felling sad about the death of Yinsen's son he retires for good and left the mantle to nick and he finnally reconclied with Alicia, and during the last 20 years he also spent the Last 20 years devoping, creating,and Buliding a World in the sky called Orbit City. all the buildings are set on giant poles, resembling Seattle, Washington's Space Needle; the ground is almost never seen from that far up with robots to do all the work for People and he also sloved world hunger with all the taste of a full coures meal in a single pill and flying cars all with the help of Red Richards and a scientist Named George Jetson and his son who is a nine-year-old boy genius named Dexter. Josh's plans were realised and Josh could control it all with his invetion called Air-Net which controled all the robots. On the grand opening of Orbit City a Group of Aliens relesed a Terrigen Mist into Earth's atmostphere and Mutated Earth's Popuation to Super powerd Monsters and Aniamals every place but Orbit City was reccked and destoyed Following the mutation of the human race due to the release of Terrigen Mist into the Earth's atmosphere,Alicia did not survive the mist and she died, Josh deeply sadden by this isolated himself fromhis family and humanity so that he would not mutate himself, fearing what the mutation might bring to him.

At first he did so by continually wearing his armor. He eventually gained access to the Red Ronin armor and used it in the construction of his new home, Iron Manor, which situated itself in Gotham City, near the neigberhood of where he grew up.

During this time, Norman Osborn was elected president of the United States again, and Josh soon found himself working for Osborn. He did so willingly, hoping to take the despot down from the inside, by using Osborn's own funding to construct a police force of Iron Men to do so. During this time, Josh also created the Seven Silver Samurai. seven robots who were given to Lord Sunfire, the son of the original Sunfire (who was assassinated) to help defend Japan and it's neighboring regions.

Josh constructed devices and weapons for President Osborn, chief among those were the Iron Avengers; robots which were modeled after the Avengers who were killed in Washington D.C. battling the Absorbing Man. These Iron Avengers utilized Iron Fizz technology and were programed with the various Avengers personalities, and had technological analogs of their individual abilities. This group was led by the lone surviving Avenger: The Vision, and later teamed up with the living Green Avenger and his partner Redwing (Wyatt Wingfoot).

Following the assassination of Osborn by the Skull, Green Avenger came to Josh for help against the Skull's army. Josh declined to help personally. However when the Celestials arrived on Earth he thought of what Elijah did for Earth he sacifised him self and it was Josh's turn to do the same to save the planet he loves one last time, Josh sent his Iron Men army. He converted his Iron Manor into it's robot mode to distract the Celestials before the arrival of Galactus, who was summoned by Black Bolt of the Inhumans. During the fight, the Iron Manor was destroyed. While Josh survived it's destruction, he was impaled by some of the wreckage, and died shortly after realizing he was finally outside in the open air for the first time in decades. He was 100 years old

The soul of Joshua Rolle ended up in the Realm of the Dead, where it was recruited by the soul of Captain Mar-Vell for an army that was being gathered to kill Death. Josh aided Mar-Vell in gathering more deceased heroes and villains to the cause, and was one of the many heroes to attack Death's fortress.

Following Death's death, Josh was invited to live in the realm that Mar-Vel constructed called Paradise. There, Mar-Vel selected Josh to become on of his Avenging Host. Using the High Evolutionary's evolution devices, Josh was transmogrified into an angelic being of metallic composition. Joining the host which comprised of Johanthan, Victor Von Doom, Henry Pym, Phoenix and Reed Richards, they defended the people of Paradise as well as recruited those in the Realm of the Dead who came to the realization that they were dead and thus able to travel to Paradise. When the Host realized that with each new addition to the realm of Paradise, the realm would expand and consume a portion of the Negative Zone, the Avenging Host began to question Mar-Vell's intentions. Soon coming to believe that the "paradise" offered to those who came to the land was just personal wish fulfillment, the Avenging Host confronted Mar-Vell. At that moment, the Kree army invaded Paradise and the Avenging Host was killed for attempting to betray Mar-Vell.

However, this was all an elaborate attempt to pass on the Cosmic Consciousness to Reed Richards, and once the people of Paradise fought off the Kree invaders, and Richards restored order to the realm, the Avenging Host (Josh included) were resurrected. They recruited a new member: Hawkeye. Josh resumed his duties as one of the Avenging Host for 50 years and found a new death not ageing, but when Josh was tired of Fighting he left Paradise and his soul went to Heaven to be with his family and to hold his wife Alicia in his arms again.
