Knight/Grant Thur (Earth-1)

Excalibur or Grant Thur was a welder in granite falls, but was actually born Arthur as in King Arthur... Yeah that Arthur as in Excalibur. Arthur just like the story pulled the sword Excalibur and was the only one worthy to wield it. He also fought his sister and nemesis Morgan Le Fay, and became one of the worlds first super heroes which he teamed up with Neptuna (The Lady of the Lake), Archer (Robin Hood), Alchemy (Merlin), and Knight (Lance-a-lot) to form the first super hero team against Morgan Le Fay, Galahad,Lucius Tiberius Mordred, and Morgaan eventually converted Knight or Lance into the Black Knight. After Morgan was defeated but at the cost of Camelot's destruction, Arthur traveled the Earth for a time and thanks to Excalibur he aged slowly allowing him to live hundreds of years. He came into conflict with some pirates around the time of England's expansion period. He later also fought against the Nazis at one point and was forced to join the United States secret super human team called the Firebrand. After it disbanded he came to Granite Falls and worked as a Wielder for a time till the Event happened and he felt the need to recruit a group of good super humans to combat the oncoming darkness he sensed coming.
