Jetboy was the world's greatest pilot and a great American hero of World War II. He was the first man to pilot a jet plane, the legendary JB-1 experimental aeroplane. He heroically sacrificed his life trying to stop the release of the wild card virus in 1946. He failed, but his death marked the beginning of the age of the wild card and turned him into a legend. Jetboy is in many ways a tragic figure, a battle-scarred veteran of only 19 years of age by the time he died. He is the subject of countless movies and books. The JFK Airport in the Wild Cards universe is named the Tomlin International Airport instead.
