All the Giant-Men were seemingly killed by the Liberators' foot soldiers. Seven more were awaiting approval for active duty. Lang is later inducted into the New Ultimates as the last "Giant Man". |
| "Reserve Captain America" | Lieberman | The Ultimates Vol. 1 Annual 1 | He was injected with the Super-Soldier serum and, as a result, exhibited enhanced speed and strength, as well as nearly indestructible skin. He also possessed an innate connection to the S.H.I.E.L.D. supercomputer. He was intended to replace Captain America in case he was killed or went rogue. However, his central nervous system collapsed after he saved 57 people from a fire in New York City; the strain of the super-soldier serum killed him. It is revealed that he is the latest casualty in trying to replicate Captain America and there have been several other soldiers like him who died the same way. |

Famous quotes containing the word reserves:
“...I want to see a film, they send the Israeli army reserves to escort me! What kind of life is this?”
—Golda Meir (1898–1978)
“While you are nurturing your newborn, you need someone to nurture you, whether it is with healthful drinks while you’re nursing, or with words of recognition and encouragement as you talk about your feelings. In this state of continual giving to your infant—whether it is nourishment or care or love—you are easily drained, and you need to be replenished from sources outside yourself so that you will have reserves to draw from.”
—Sally Placksin (20th century)
