X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Agent Zero is a lethal marksman and William Stryker's second in command. Working as a member of Team X he helped Stryker source adamantium. He, along with Victor Creed, are the only ones from Team X that stayed faithful to Stryker when the team disbanded. When Logan has adamantium grafted to his entire skeleton and breaks out from the Weapon X facility, Zero pursues him, to an old barn belonging to an elderly couple who have taken "Wolverine" in. Zero shoots them and blows up the barn in an attempt to kill Wolverine without avail. Wolverine rides away on a motorbike and is pursued by a helicopter containing Zero. Wolverine brings the helicopter down and mocks Wolverine about how "innocent people die around him". As Wolverine walks away he ignites a trail of fuel with his claws causing the helicopter to explode, killing Zero who is trapped inside.

He has the ability to absorb kinetic energy; for example he can fall from great heights and take punches without being injured. He is also an excellent marksman. He is shown to be extremely athletic, being able to flawlessly jump about fifteen feet in the air and land perfectly.
