Oh, for sure. Jack was one of the inspirations for the character. Then there's a bit of Solid Snake in there, too, from MGS.

The main inspiration, however, was Spider-Man, a childhood favorite. Although that's a lot less obvious at first glance. But creating a reluctant hero who happens to be very good at his job, at the cost of everything else - like Spider-Man - was the biggest reason for me wanting to write this character.

Thanks for reading. :)
