History
Hernando Barrera was first seen within the City of Heroes comic under his superhero identity Apex, fighting alongside War Witch and discovering the mystery of the Vahzilok. His working relationship with War Witch extended to sharing the same apartment along with secret identities. With Horus unexpectedly joining their group, they went on to solve the crimes of Dr. Vahzilok, meet Back Alley Brawler at a party, fight the Carnival of Shadows, negotiated with Bile of the Freakshow, and survived a meeting with Vanessa DeVore.
Later on, Apex would find himself as part of a hero jury in the trial of Arcanist, who had been charged with the murder of Red Razor. Most of the jury would break out to learn the real truth, only to discover it was a trap by the Malta group who had been kidnapping heroes to brainwash, including the Red Razor, who was not dead after all. Apex and the others turned themselves over to the police shortly afterwards, and was punished with house arrest.
With his sister Sally Barrera having found a job at Crey Industries and helping out Horus with his fluctuating powers, Apex, War Witch and a group of other heroes took the fight to the 5th Column who was also investigating Horus, where they was defeated by Nosferatu, but returned to defeat the vampyri and his minions. Requiem killed War Witch's coven to which she swore revenge, with Apex and Horus joining alongside her. However, Crey turned up later to take Horus and Sally into custody which resulted in a large fight along with passing heroes who were investigating the damaged apartment from outside.
Deciding that there were a bit too much on their plate, Apex sought the help of Back Alley Brawler. Apex would enter 'covenspace' the first time with War Witch and Horus, where they learnt the true form of Horus' Kheldian self. With Horus learning the location of the 5th Column and Requiem, the heroes gathered at the location sight, but were ambushed by the 5th Column's large army. Apex, along with Horus and War Witch broke off from the fight to find Requiem, who was with Nosferatu and Vandal. With the latter two defeated quickly, Requiem proved more than a match for all three heroes on his own, mortally wounding War Witch and Horus, but succumbed to War Witch's sword which reverted to iron as she collapsed.
Apex entered War Witch's covenspace where he was dismayed to learn his teammates were truly dead. Horus told Apex the Kheldians would seek him out when the time is right, while War Witch comforted him, saying to take heart, as new War Witch may look to him for guidance in the future, and kisses him as the covenspace ends, leaving him alone with the bodies of his dead teammates.
Some time later, Apex is seen in Atlas Park wearing War Witch's iron sword on his back as he takes War Witch's last words to heart to "never give up", as he advertises himself as a level 15 Scrapper looking for a team.
