Project Patriot

"The decision was made that the new Director had to be enhanced, no candidate fit that criteria. So we made one."

- Glenn Talbot

Project Patriot was a project with the goal to create an enhanced individual to be the new Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.. The chosen candidate was Jeffrey Mace.

History
"The president tasked me with finding the next Captain America. Not an easy job! But I did it, I delivered a Patriot, a bonafide American hero!"

- Glenn Talbot

Phil Coulson requested for his replacement as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Director to be a powered person the public could trust. However, Brigadier General Glenn Talbot could not find a suited candidate. As Jeffrey Mace was viewed as a hero by the public after seemingly saving the lives of fellow attendees during the Attack on the United Nations, Talbot decided to give Mace powers using a modified version of Calvin Zabo's Formula and make the public believe he was an Inhuman.
