Hindsight (character)

Hindsight is the name of two characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The first, Carlton LaFroyge, first appeared in The New Warriors Annual #3 (March 1993). The second, Nathaniel Carver, first appeared in Generation X (vol. 2) #1 (May 2017).

Hindsight (Carlton LaFroyge), formerly Hindsight Lad, is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character has appeared primarily in the New Warriors series. Created by Fabian Nicieza and Darick Robertson, he first appeared in The New Warriors Annual #3 (March 1993).

Soon after Robbie Baldwin (the superhero Speedball) moves into his building, Carlton LaFroyge discovers his secret identity. He uses this information to blackmail him. Baldwin refuses to cooperate. Soon, the New Warriors are captured by a street gang called the Poison Memories. The Poison Memories had viciously attacked the team's relatives, which led to the death of Rage's grandmother.

LaFroyge creates a caped costume that includes automobile side mirrors attached to a football helmet. He summons the help of Night Thrasher to help free the team. Through this, he forces himself into the New Warriors as an unofficial member, calling himself Hindsight Lad.

Hindsight Lad becomes involves in a cosmic adventure involving the New Warriors and many of their allies. In a confrontation with Sphinx, most of the team is lost in time and space. Hindsight Lad figures out much of what is going on and assists the remaining New Warriors allies in fixing the situation.

Night Thrasher soon offers Hindsight Lad full membership. He changes costumes to a red/yellow suit and drops the "Lad" part of his name. Through him, Timeslip gains membership as well. Hindsight remains with the team until sometime after issue #75.

In the lead-up to the "Civil War" storyline, the New Warriors are involved in a battle that leads to Nitro devastating Stamford, Connecticut, killing most of the New Warriors and hundreds of civilians. Carlton LaFroyge, now retired from heroics, turns against his former teammates, setting up an anti-New Warriors website called DestroyAllWarriors.com. Through the site, LaFroyge publicly exposes the Warrior's civilian identities and incites violence against them. She-Hulk helps Justice, Rage, Ultra Girl, Slapstick, and Firestar locate LaFroyge and force him to shut the site down. Afterward, LaFroyge is arrested by She-Hulk's fiancée John Jameson.

LaFroyge is seemingly released and creates a new website (www.marvelornot.com) to push his conspiracy theories regarding the superhuman community. Among his theories, he believes the superhuman community to be controlled by a Cabal composed of Beta Ray Bill, Brother Voodoo, Dazzler, Lockjaw, Puck, and Deadpool.
