History

Battlestar was a wrestler who took the Power Broker's strength augmentation process that was created by Karl Malus. Once considered as a replacement for Captain America. Was part of Silver Sable's Wild Pack. After being given superhuman strength, Battlestar joined a team called the Bold Urban Commandos (Buckies), who supported the Super-Patriot (John Walker). Together, Walker and the Buckies attacked Captain America (Steve Rogers) and lost.

Months later, John Walker was contacted by the Commission on Superhuman Activities and was then chosen to replace Captain America. John asked the Commission if his former partners could join him in his activities. The Commission debated and denied most of the applicants except for Lamar's and agreed to let him become the new Bucky. After several missions as Bucky, Lamar decided to work on his own and created the identity of Battlestar. Working with Captain America for some time, he eventually decided to retire and went home to Chicago. After some time though, he joined up with Silver Sable's Wild Pack and even led the team on missions during Silver Sable's absence. It is unclear if Lemar is still a member of the team.

Some time later, Lemar joined Solo and Typeface to form an underground opposition to the Superhuman Registration Act. Soon, other heroes and villains who opposed the act joined the group such as Network, Gladiatrix, and others. However, they were raided by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who managed to capture several individuals including Battlestar, Solo, and Typeface.

Battlestar is currently a member of The Garrison, the official Initiative team of Vermont.
