Who is Mike, and why does everyone feel the need to comment on him when he is encountered in Grumm?

Quoted from the manual of JA1:

"Little can be said about Mike, the “Mystery Mercenary,” simply because little is known. Persistent rumors, however, do place him in Dallas on the day Kennedy was shot and at Stormin’ Norman’s pool party in Kuwait. A known fact - he only works for the extremely experienced!"

Stats in JA1:

Health 97
Agility 95
Dexterity 94
Wisdom 96
Medical 67
Expl. 97
Mech. 98
Mark. 99
Level 8

He was the top-man of AIM. You can find a short note about him on the AIM-homepage (Alumni).

I liked him a lot. A pitty he had gone. Btw., I think Magic has the best line when Mike gets killed.

Mike is the true mercenary. He is in it for the money. Nothing else.

Well, written down it doesn't appear to be very spetacular; better try to listen to him personally.

I have always believed Mike to be the product of science. He is not influenced by any drugs or artificial stimulants in ANY way to achieve his incredible abilities. Instead, he is/was a test subject (or product of a test tube...take your pick). Anyone who remembers the German breeding experiments to create the "perfect" human in WWII, or remembers Khan from Star Trek (genetically engineered human) will realize what I am getting at.

With this in mind I do not think we have seen the last of Mike, or at least people like him.

I dunno. Have you seen Magic's stats? Ye gods! In JA2 and probably all the mods his stats are in the high nineties... and he looks so young!

I can get headshots with him without even taking the time to aim XD

Magic is great, in my judgement the coolest mercenary with great stats; however, Mike's were superior even to his.

Mikes has 99's in JA2 which are applied to ALL of his stats (official strategy guide). Unfortunately, we may never know the truth behind how he got this way as no more information on him was ever given.

While he may have gotten his incredible abilities through experience,(there might actually be a James Bond type running around somewhere in the world) I still think there is more to him than meets the eye.

Well Mike was also older than Magic. (Right?) Only from JA 2 to Unfinished Bussines Magic changed from level 5 to 7 and got many other skills. Give him a couple of years and he is the next Mike. Also, Gus seems to be good to. He is old and recently crushed his leg, still he has 65 agility. He must have been pretty badass when he was younger...

If I remember right, Gus had 99's in a lot of stats. His statistics reached these "Mike" levels in Deadly Games if memory serves.

If my IMP character could only achieve and/or advance to something close to these incredible abilities and still be only level 6 or 7 then I suppose things would make a tad more sense.
