Information About

S.t.r.i.p.e.




When the Soldiers were lost in time during the late forties, they were rescued by the Justice League Of America and returned to the present day. Upon his return, Dugan had married a woman named Maggie, who left him later to raise their son Michael on his own. Compounding his problems was the fact that Sylvester Pemberton's black sheep relative Arthur had stolen Dugan's patents during their disappearance. Upon hearing about this, Sylvester returned the patents to Pat, and the two reconciled.

The character has been updated for a new audience: In the '' Stars And S.T.R.I.P.E. '' series Dugan has got married (for the second time) and settled in Blue Valley . His step-daughter, Courtney Whitmore, became the second Star-Spangled Kid , partly in order to annoy him. This led Dugan to develop a Robot ic suit of Armor (S.T.R.I.P.E.) so as to accompany and protect her.

Following the events of the series, Dugan and his family have moved to Metropolis , where he has assisted Superman 's comrade Steel .

Like the rest of the Seven Soldiers, Dugan is younger than he should be, owing to Time Travel .

Recently Pat has completely re-engineered S.T.R.I.P.E., changing its appearance.
