Fictional Obituary: Agent Rainbow (Absolute Martian Manhunter comic spoilers)

Fictional Obituary: Agent Rainbow (Absolute Martian Manhunter comic spoilers) Agent Rainbow, the armed psychic operative of the Agency, has died in the confrontation with the Martian. The soldiers under his command turned against him during the fighting. Rainbow’s appearance suggested the counterculture, but his work served a violent institution. His association with the Agency placed his abilities at the disposal of people determined to capture, suppress or destroy what they could not control. John Jones and the Martian became targets of that campaign. He was known through the identity he used in that service. There is no established account here of a family, a home outside the Agency, or a civilian life to set beside it. Supplying one would give him a history that has not been preserved. What remains is a record of power exercised against others, ending when the force he commanded was directed back at him. His death closes that record without erasing the harm it contains. Those who endured his attacks belong in the remembrance as well.
