Biography
Glenn Talbot
It was known that he had a younger brother by the name of Brian Talbot who stayed home with their mother. (World War Hulk: Gamma Corps v1 #1)
Years ago, Major Talbot was on a mission where he was captured by Soviet forces under the Gremlin. At a secret facility in Siberia, he was interrogated when Department X dispatched the Winter Soldier to aid in the process. Talbot came to realise that the Winter Soldier was actually Bucky Barnes and reminded him of his past. This broke some of the brainwashing over Barnes who aided in Talbot's escape but he was captured before he could flee the site where his handlers wiped his memories again. (World War Hulks v1 #1)
Major Talbot was later assigned to the U.S. Army base where General Ross wanted him to keep Dr. Bruce Banner under surveillance. For his assignment, he spent two weeks studying all the records about his target. Whilst there, he asked the General's daughter Betty Ross to show him the base with the young major being smitten with her. (Tales to Astonish v1 #61)
During the Chaos War, Amatsu-Mikaboshi tore open the veil that divided the worlds of the living and the dead as he tried to unmake the universe. This caused a number of dead to briefly return to Earth with Talbot among them. At first, the Red She-Hulk attacked him for betraying her but Doc Samson revealed that the earlier act was by a Life-Model Decoy. Glenn then proclaimed his love for Betty and regretted how his past actions had hurt her. He came to lead other soldiers in attacking the forces of the Chaos King that were looking to claim the fragment of Death in Marlo Chandler. (Incredible Hulks v1 #619)
