[edit] Fictional character biography

He was created by the Mathemagicians of the Anti-Life Equation to spread chaos throughout Earth. In Uncle Sam And The Freedom Fighters #1 he becomes an exact duplicate of Senator Knight, and kills the original, taking his place as President of the United States. He killed President Knight at the behest of Father Time the commanding officer of S.H.A.D.E.. In Uncle Sam and The Freedom Fighters #7, Gonzo betrayed Father Time, forcing him to team up with Uncle Sam, providing the Freedom Fighters with the footage they needed to unmask him. In Uncle Sam and The Freedom Fighters #8, Father Time turned Gonzo into data (Using Atomic Knight technology) and trapped him in an "orphan box" (In the shape of a pair of glasses), hoping to use him against his creators, the Shadow Demons.
