John, a survivor of the 1923 Rosewood Massacre, enlists in the US Army in the mid-1920s and becomes an unwitting participant in a classified experiment involving a serum called 'Verium'. This drug imbues him with superhuman strength, agility, and accelerated healing, rendering him virtually immortal. For over a century, John serves as the government's clandestine operative, undertaking dangerous missions worldwide. His existence takes a pivotal turn in the late 1980s when he uncovers a deeply entrenched conspiracy: 'The Proud,' a powerful white supremacist organization, is protected by high-ranking officials within the very government he serves. This revelation transforms John's mission from patriotic duty to a personal crusade.
