The Origin of Power Man

Erik Josten was your standard screw up. He finally found some order and discipline in the ranks of Baron Zemo's army. So when Zemo wound up dead in a fight with the Avengers Josten did the only thing he could think to do. He returned to Zemo's base. There he found the hottest woman he had every seen in his life- the Enchantress. Enchantress offers to make Josten into an ionic juggernaut the way that they had to Simon Willaims. Josten had seen the power of Wonder Man and that seemed okay to him.

Josten wasn't really interested in being a "super-villain" and all the things that pertains to it-- a costume and code name...

But Josten was only really in it to be with the Enchantress so whatever she wanted him to do was what he was going to do. Power Man was into Enchanterss so much that when Enchantress fled when the Avengers closed in Josten simply surrendered.
