The Answer

Aaron Nicholson, better known as The Answer, is a villain from the Marvel comics.

The Answer started working for Richard Fisk, who controlled the Las Vegas division of HYDRA. He was the top hit man, as he always had an answer to any problem.

He volunteered to be the guinea pig for Fisk’s attempt to grant superhuman powers, using equipment of the late Harlan Stillwell. It didn’t seem to work, but sometime later, when he was cornered by enemy assassins, he suddenly developed super strength and overpowered his attackers. When he arrived home, he found his strength had disappeared again. Later, he developed the power of flight to escape an explosion. These and some other incidents led him to understand his powers: he had gained the ability to come up with whatever what was necessary to resolve the given situation.
