Los Angeles

Los Angeles is the largest city in the U.S state of California.

History
Decades after he suffered amnesia in Miami in 1928, Hancock resided in Los Angeles and used his abilities to suppress the criminal population in Los Angeles. However, his heroics were often flawed due to his intoxication which would often lead to property damage and some casualties.

As a freeway chase was in progress, Hancock flew across the city while drinking a large jug of alcohol and almost colliding with an airplane in the process. He rammed straight through a freeway sign and flew towards the robber's truck. The debris from the sign had flipped a few police cars and blocked off the other police in the process. He caught up to the truck before tearing the roof off and confronting the criminals. He told the criminal that if they didn't pull over, they would have to deal with him. The criminals refused to listen and tired to shoot Hancock. Though Hancock was unharmed, his glasses and alcohol were destroyed. Infuirated, Hancock decided to handle the criminals with more extreme measures. He stoped the truck and then lifted it in they air and flew off with it before the police could show up. While the criminals begged for mercy, Hancock told them they they would pay. During this time, he inadvertently rammed the car in the side of a skyscraper. When the criminals begged to be put down, Hancock sarcastically said that he would: He had impaled the truck right through the Capitol Records Building. His actions were criticized by the media and public alike, due to the property damage caused.

Later, he saved a man from getting hit from a colliding train. Though he saved the man, the train fell apart when it hit Hancock and more property damage was caused. This further led to public criticizing Hancock's public image.

During Hancock's time and reformation in jail, the crime rate in Los Angeles began to rise and the citizens and police alike believe that Hancock was needed after all. During a massive gunfight on the streets between the LAPD, Red Parker, and his criminal associates during a bank heist, the new and improved Hancock came to the scene and saved an injured police officer before openly engaging the criminals. He swept out Parker's associates one by one until only Parker was left. Parker demanded that Hancock gets the money and helps him flee or he would blow up the hostages. Hancock disagreed and sliced off Parker's arms when he was called an a-hole. With the hostages rescued and the crime spree over, Hancock's public image was officially redeemed as the pedestrians cheered for Hancock, LAPD expressed their thanks.

Hancock went to a liquor store and bought two jugs of alcohol. When the cashier said the price was 98 dollars Hancock grew suspicious as the store's alcohol couldn't be sold at such as absurd price. He then realized that two hidden thugs had planned this and subdued both of them after they tried to confront Hancock and kill the cashier. However, Hancock was wounded and sent to a hospital to be treated.

Taking advantage of Hancock's weakened state, Parker and a few other criminals who held a personal vendetta against Hancock went to the hospital to kill him. During the battle, all of the criminals were killed, but Mary was shot and temporarily died. Hancock had suffered a beating at the hands of Parker's men and was about to be killed by Parker, but Ray saved him and killed Parker.

Knowing that he and Mary couldn't be together due to them being rendered vulnerable, Hancock left Los Angeles and started a new life in New York City where he resumed his duties as a local superhero.
