          HISTORY          

At the start of World War II, three veterans who had been crippled during the Great War volunteered their lives to create a champion to defend the United States. Dr. Travers' artificial man came to life shortly after Nazi agents attacked the scientist's laboratory, fatally wounding him before the android himself and Harry, the scientist's son, stopped them. With his dying breath, Professor Travers named his creation Yankee Doodle Jones and begged Jones and his son to protect America. Harry became the Dandy, and the duo devoted their entire lives to fighting the Nazis. They were part of the Crime Busters, the Secret Warriors and the Battle Squadron. Much later, Dandy received a mortal wound and Jones gave him his synthetic body so that Harry could survive. Yankee Doodle Jones's mind also survived, in his case as a disembodied electronic entity advising Harry.  

          POWERS & WEAPONS          

Yankee Doodle's synthetic body possesses superhuman strength, speed, stamina, and resistance to physical damage. His senses and bionic reflexes are also highly superior to humans. As an electronic entity, Jones is able to manifest as a hologram and control electronic devices. Thanks to the advent of the internet, his capabilities increased infinitely.
