    History

    Alpha was one of the assassins hired by David Cain to train his daughter.

    Cassandra Cain (Batgirl) an amazing martial artist to say in the least. Alpha fit right in on the League Of Assassins roster.

    Years later Alpha was employed by terrorists to plant a fusion bomb in Gotham City but soon afterward was struck with amnesia, Batgirl then saved Alpha and explained to him that he was a secret agent named Micheal Sommers. The two then search for a arms shipment. Once they find it Batgirl leaves Micheal alone, he is then jumped by five thugs. He has a flash back to a earlier fight and defeats the thugs single handedly.

    Afterward Batgirl convinces him to help her find the bomb. Soon after finding the bomb Alpha's memory returned and he turned on her explaining that people like him "Cant Change" this influenced Batgirl to reveal her true identity to prove that people can change, Alpha locked her in the room with the bomb but changed his mind and ended up deactivating it from a distance.

    of blades. As time went on he was trained in the use of Firearms. He combined the two and became the consummate Gun Fu expert of the D.C universe. He is cabaple of maintaining a fight with guns in both hands. He can spar with an opponent armed with swords knives or more conventional weapons with ease. Also of note is that his skill is notable enough for David Cain and Lady Shiva to recruit him into the league of assassins. His beauty in combat and how his moves flow is also something noted by Lady shiva.

    Despite not having the raw skill of Mad Dog or Cassandra Cain he was able to train both and spar with them easily even without the aid of guns.
