Personal history
Benson was an avid camper and a naturalist. He often would trek far into the woods for weeks at a time to observe animals in their natural habitat.. While watching the hunting habits of a few animals he heard a large explosion go off a mile away. He ran towards it to see what happened, hoping it wasn't some fools trying to fish with dynamite. All he saw was a circle of charred forestry circling a dying man in a suit of armor. The man tried to speak but his accent and english were so foreign he couldn't really understand. But he took of his helmet an offered it to him, then he passed.
Benson took the helmet and the armor and buried him. He was alone and didn't see a reason not to, so he put on the armor. He started floating and heard a very calm voice ask "down"? He said yes and the suit went down. He spent the day discovering what the suit could do, but only found out how to make it fly. He was certainly astounded but a little disappointed, he hoped maybe for an atomic sword at least. When flying one day he was seen flying by the government, who saw him as a threat. They shot at him, and the suit asked "Take"? and he agreed. He was knocked out of the sky but survived. The suit then asked "Give"? and he agreed, a wave of energy shot out in the direction he was looking at. Burning down some trees in the process, he flew off at a low altitude to save himself.
He wouldn't don the suit again until a gas explosion went off in a nearby town, he saved the people stuck in the highest floors. The local newspapers then dubbed him as Crusader Comet.
