He was a real life costumed hero dedicated to stopping crime, but in the end his story was a supervillain origin. Phoenix Jones was a real life costumed superhero that operated out of Seattle, Washington for several years. Every night, seven days a week, he patrolled the streets of Seattle at night with his crew of fellow costumed heroes and a camera person. Anywhere he could find crime being committed - robbery, theft, drug deals, assaults - he would put himself in harm's way, chase and apprehend criminals, and aid the police in arrests. Many called his methods into question, but eventually he won over the hearts of Seattle and, for a brief time, the country. However, there was a darker story going on behind the scenes of Jones' Captain America shtick, and it was only a matter of time before it would all come crashing down. On part two of our Kayfabe Trilogy, we examine real life costumed superhero, Phoenix Jones.
