Biography[]
Background[]
Mister Marathon was a member of the Seven, and not much of his past is known.
Death[]
During the 9/11 crisis, Jack from Jupiter tried to flee, but Marathon was convinced to let him stay. While carrying Mister Marathon due to his inability to fly, the Homelander wanted to abandon the mission, but Marathon persuaded him to continue by pointing out that Vought-American would fire them if they left. Scared of dying, Marathon jumped on Homelander's back and told the latter that the plane was going to hit the city. This convinced Homelander to at least try to hit the plane from the back to slow it down. However, Homelander's attempt to stop it failed, and in the process, Mister Marathon was decapitated.
After the incident, he was replaced by another speedster called A-Train.
Other Media[]
TV Series[]
Like in the comics, Mister Marathon is a founding member of The Seven in The Boys TV series, staying in the team for four years less than A-Train. It is implied that he was kicked off the team for becoming slower. It is also unknown if Mister Marathon is dead or not, as, thus far, the 9/11 incident has yet to be mentioned in it. Anyway, in Seven on 7 with Cameron Coleman, it's revealed he is alive and apparently still active in some form, having had a race against A-Train that was canceled. In the second season, Lamplighter recalls his time with Mister Marathon, as they used to sneak college girls in the back way of the Seven Tower.
