[edit] Fictional character biography
Born in the USA, Solo works as a counter-terrorism operative, and makes limited appearances in the Marvel comics universe. He is known for his catchphrase, "While Solo lives, terror dies!".
One of Solo's more prominent appearances was during the Spider-Man storyline Revenge of the Sinister Six. Soon after the Six reform and defeat both Spider-Man and the Hulk, Solo aids the web-slinger in his second fight against the super villain team. Things take a turn for the worse when Mysterio uses an illusion to make Solo believe he is attacking the Six, when in reality he is attacking Spider-Man while the Six escape. Solo escapes and Spider-Man is rescued by Deathlok. Soon after, Solo rejoins Spider-Man to aid him in a final assault on the Six aided by the Hulk, Ghost Rider, Sleepwalker, Nova, Deathlok and the Fantastic Four. With the villains defeated, Solo disappears.
In Cable & Deadpool #7-12, Solo is hired by G. W. Bridge to join the new Six Pack alongside Hammer, Domino, Anaconda, and Constrictor in their mission to take down Cable. Like Bridge and Hammer, Solo is captured and placed in suspended animation. He is eventually released.
[edit] Civil War
In Marvel Comics' 2006 crossover Civil War, Solo sides with other heroes who oppose registration. While waiting to make contact with the resistance led by Captain America, Solo and the others are arrested by Iron Man, Ms. Marvel, Wonder Man and S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. He is shown in Civil War 6 siding with Captain America and his band of rebels.
[edit] Powers & Abilities
Solo has somewhat limited teleportation abilities, allowing him to "jump" from place to place within a given area, and is a master of many forms of combat, and an expert marksman.
