Jason was selected by the FDAA to undergo gene therapy treatments that gave him super strength and invulnerability, but with a built in weakness: Jason had the pain receptors of a normal human, so that if he was subjected to enough pain he would die even if his skin remained unbroken. The New American is outfitted in a helmet and a pseudo Astronaut's uniform, because 1962 America was depicted in the series as not ready for a minority superhero. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dutty Boukman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41231071281304,"sku":"","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/3935\/8872\/products\/DSC_0201copy.jpg?v=1635822389","url":"https:\/\/duttyboukman.art\/products\/the-american-way-2007-by-john-ridley-1st-printing-trade-paperback-black-superman","provider":"Dutty Boukman","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
