1950. Sen. Joe McCarthy and his hunt for Reds hiding in American Society. The greatest symbol of this time is Right Wing, McCarthy's personal hound. Right Wing was poised to become the new War Hawk of this turbulent Post-War time. But Truman shot down McCarthy's candidate. So Right Wing began to take his vengeance. He hunted down and killed numerous people he claimed were Commies, and used McCarthy's name as his authority. But it all changed when he started to target the Senators who denied his petition to become War Hawk. Right Wing had gone from good to bad, hunting down and killing many American citizens. He became a public enemy, and started to commit other crimes. Burglaries, murder, torture. These were his new duties. He quickly killed 13 Senators and robbed industrialist Howard Hughes blind. He tortured a family for 3 days because he felt that they were Reds.
The Government quickly shut down Right Wing. The file says he is a complete psychopath. That is inaccurate. Right Wing is a sociopath.
In 1963 he broke out of a Sanitarium, and he hasn't been heard of since.
But the 1960s saw the rise of a new type of hero: the Super-Hero. The 60's also saw another type of hero: the shadowy figures known only as Blank and Wickerman.
