Originally known as either Rad or Radd Spencer, Nathan "Rad" Spencer is the lead character in the Bionic Commando series.
History
Nathan Spencer was a member of the Federal States of America's military forces, but had his arm blown off during combat. During his rehabilitation, he became the first test subject for bionic experiments conducted by TASC., the Tactical Arms and Security Council. His codename was Research and Development #1, so he gained the nickname "Rad." There he received his trademark bionic arm, after which he was sent into active duty and given the rank of captain, after the antagonistic Imperial army attacked and captured the TASC operative Super Joe in the original Bionic Commando. Nathan succeeds in stopping the Imperial attack, preventing the enemy's resurrection of Adolf "Master D" Hitler, and rescuing Super Joe. For his valiant efforts, Joe is is promoted to director of TASC, and he and Nathan go on to train a new breed of bionic commandos.New Bionic Commando
The second Bionic Commando game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 takes place several years after the NES original. As bionic enhancements became more prevalent, hostility grew among normal humans who were becoming paranoid and scared by enhanced bionic soldiers. Riots broke out and a bionic rebellion began as a result of this paranoia. Amidst this tumult, Nathan Spencer was wrongfully accused and sentenced to death. He was spared from this fate only by the detonation of a massive bomb that leveled Ascension City. The government releases Spencer from prison and fits him with a new bionic arm, allowing him a chance at a pardon in exchange for tracking down and stopping those responsible for this heinous act.
