Biography
Jim Brannigan is a pompous, self-made super hero who has become a house-hold name in Golden Bay City thanks to the efforts of his W.H.O. agent, Wilhelm Agnew.

Brannigan is cocky to the extreme. He is very attractive under his mask and he knows this. He can frequently be seen flirting with pretty young women who swoon over his every word.

Brannigan attended college at the University of Golden Bay City where he was the star quarterback as well as serving as the chapter president for his fraternity. One day while hiking he came across what appeared to be a U.F.O. that had recently crashed. There were no alien beings around but while Jim was investigating the ship he found the power-pack that he would later use to become Zap-Man.

Upon graduation he began his career as a freelance hero for hire. One could often catch his loud, obnoxious T.V. commercials in which he bragged that he alone could protect the city. Because of his larger-than-life attitude, Brannigan caught the attention of top W.H.O. representatives and he was offered a high profile position.

Due to the marketing genius of Mr. Agnew, Zap-Man's exposure and popularity sky-rocketed and Zap-Man merchandise quickly flooded the market, making him an instant celebrity.

The popularity went to Brannigan's head. He considers himself W.H.O.'s top hero and never misses an opportunity to remind others of this. While he is a very capable hero in his own right, his attitude and snide sense of humor makes it difficult for other heroes to tolerate being around him.
