Personality
Jackhammer is calm, gentle, and kind most of the time, but he is extremely ruthless and brutal when provoked and has no problem killing people in cold blood. He believes that violence and killing are the only way to stop Far-Left/Right nutjobs, Racists and Pro-Government supporters. Suffers an extreme case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder at the age of eight when he witnesses the 9/11 attack in New York City which killed his parents, the following events made him almost mentally unstable and later made him cold, hollow and without any remorse. Jack is very intelligent when it comes to weapons, fighting skills, and mechanical engineering, especially vehicles. He created his own devices and gadgets that stretch beyond the laws of physics. However, on the opposite side of his brutal and cold-blooded killings, he's very patriotic, supports the United States of America and keeping the spirit alive. But he takes American Patriotism extremely seriously and when someone badmouths America or supports the Government and its decisions he'll seriously injure and/or kill that person no matter what age, size or gender and believes that republicans and democrats ruined America for their purposes and wishes to see only one political party that only supports America from the founding fathers to modern times, he also made friends who are Patriots and Non-Racists who share his feelings and vision of a True America. Most of the people, even the Teen Titans are afraid of him due to his killings and brutal behavior and never dare to cross him.

Then a gang of Anti-Americans starting killing everyone in sight. Jack and Jessie hid underneath the table as the killed his foster family. then the table they're under turns over and Jessie was killed in front of Jack. After identifying the killers he asked to arrest them but they couldn't because of their rights.

Bowie Knife: A Bowie knife is a style of a fixed-blade knife first popularized by Colonel James "Jim" Bowie in the early 19th Century. It was first made by James Black, although its common use refers to any large sheath knife with a clip point. The Jim Bowie knife first became famous due to Bowie's use of a large knife at a duel known as the Sandbar Fight. The knife pattern is still popular with collectors, in addition to various knife manufacturing companies, there are hundreds of custom knife makers producing Bowies and variations. This is Jack's favorite combat knife.

Katanas: The katana is a type of Japanese sword, also commonly referred to as a "samurai sword". In the strictest sense, the term katana in Japanese is applied to any kind of single-edged sword, of any origin; contrary to common belief outside Japan, the Japanese word does not necessarily refer to a Japanese sword. But incorrectly or habitually, some Japanese and Western sword lovers define katana as the standard size moderately curved (as opposed to the older "tachi" style featuring more curvature) Japanese sword with a blade length of greater than 60 cm (23.6 inches). The katana is characterized by its distinctive appearance: a curved, slender, single-edged blade, circular or squared guard, and long grip to accommodate two hands.[2] It has historically been associated with the samurai of feudal Japan and has become renowned for its sharpness and cutting ability. Jack's two main swords modified with Titanium steel for toughness.

Chainsaws: Jack wields two chainsaws with custom-made handles, he also has the chainsaw attached to assault rifles for close combat.

Machetes: The machete is a large cleaver-like cutting tool. The blade is typically 32.5 to 60 centimeters (12.8 to 23.6 in) long and usually under 3 millimeters (0.12 in) thick. Jack uses them to clear bushes and leaves away and also can kill his enemies like Jason Voorhees.

Maces: A mace is a simple weapon or ceremonial club or virge that uses a heavy head on the end of a handle to deliver powerful blows. Development of the club, a mace differs from a hammer in that the head of a mace is radially symmetric so that a blow can be delivered equally effectively with any side of the head. A mace consists of a strong, heavy wooden, metal-reinforced, or metal shaft, with a head made of stone, copper, bronze, iron or steel or Titanium. Jack uses this to knock down big enemies onto the ground.
