Getter_the_Great: His cloak is like a portal to Hell or some shit. They're the Marvel heroes that people only know because they appeared in the Maximum Carnage storyline back in the day.
Anonymous5: Tyrone Johnson was a 17-year-old high school student who lived in a lower income area in South Boston. He was successful in his studies despite the difficulties presented by his disability, a stammer, that he sometimes found impossible to control. When Tyrones friend mistaken by the police for a bad guy, Tyrone's stammer stopped his from shouting out a warning. Johnson was overcome with guilt over his inability prevent his friends death, and feared that the police would come after him as well. So Johnson became a runaway, and boarded a bus for New York City. In New York, he met another runaway named Tandy Bowen. After rescuing Tandy from purse snatchers, she bought Tyrone some food and the two left the port authority only to run into men working for the criminal pharmaceutical chemist, Simon Marshall. The men offered them a place to stay. Johnson was wary of the men, but went along to protect Tandy, who accepted their offer. At the Hudson River the thugs knocked Johnson out and then took him and Bowen by boat to Ellis Island. They discovered many more runaway being held on the island, where Marshall had also set up a secret laboratory. Marshall was working for the Mafia to develop a new synthetic addictive narcotic drug which the mob hoped would be a cheaper substitute for imported heroin. Marshall experimented with the drug by injecting it into the bloodstreams of the runaways his men captured. Marshall injected it into Johnson and Bowen as well, all the other runaways who had been injected with the drug died, but Johnson and Bowen somehow survived. After escaping their captors Johnson found himself engulfed by total darkness. But then he saw Bowen, glowing with light. He went to her, and her light dispelled the blackness. They reached the shore, where Johnson began to feel a strange hunger. Seeing his reflection in a window, he realized he now looked like a living shadow. The two runaways realized that the drug had transformed them into superhuman beings. Calling themselves Cloak and Dagger, they dedicated their lives to using their powers to save other children and teenagers from being harmed. (Now you all know.)

I only know that storyline through playing the game on the Sega Genesis. Carnage remains one of my favorite psychopaths because of it.
