Jaco Birch (Earth-Prime)

"I am. A total loser. Have been since the day I was born. Thought having powers would change all that, but all that did was make things worse. And now they turn the only good thing in my life against me? My own kid... All I wanted when I got out of Iron Heights was a clean start, to get my life together so we could be a family!"
