Antoine Wallace never got to the football game vs. Livingston High that day, but a pair of would-be vandals were apprehended at the same high school. He didn't make it back home in time for a steak dinner, but a group of drug dealers were found unconscious somewhere near the Jackson Projects. He never got the chance to ask that Foxetti girl to the prom either, but a few unlucky burglars were left in a dumpster right behind the tuxedo store. No one knows if the three acts of heroism were connected in any way....at least, no one but the person who did them. Sure enough, observing his handiwork from the skies above, was a guy in an orange mask. That guy, was Antoine Wallace, with a near-cartoonish, toothy smile on his face. It was on that day, the legend began, and as time went on, Catalpa City's crime rate plummeted. The dealers were afraid to deal, and the gangsters were afraid to gang, because he was out there somewhere - watching, and waiting. And with an unmistakable swagger, the man with the orange mask was doing just that...and it was only the beginning.

The source of Rocket's powers is his mask, which is of ancient African origin. Only an ordinary mask if donned by anyone other than Rocket, the mask specifically grants him superpowers for it is an ancestral heirloom meant only for first-born sons of his family lineage, which Rocket himself is. The powers granted by the mask include super-strength, flight, enhanced durability, energy projection, and underwater breathing. However, if Rocket is severely-injured or near-death, the mask becomes golden, providing a 300% increase to all of his powers - a form known as "Willpower". It should be noted that his mask cannot be removed by anyone else but Rocket himself. Additionally, Rocket is an expert boxer, with years of experience accumulated from fighting in the Catalpa ghetto.
