"Jackie, the "M" word..." — A skeptical Captain Black

Captain Augustus Black is the head of Section 13 and one of the main characters of the Jackie Chan Adventures series. As the leader of an elite special forces organization he holds connections with high-ranking government officials, including the President of the United States.

Personality

Upon the first meeting, Captain Black is portrayed as very serious, very work oriented, and very intimidating. He was not without humor, although it was a dry sense of humor, but humor nonetheless. He tends to try and be helpful to Jackie and his family, only to be rejected by Uncle and his "Magic Must Defeat Magic!" claim.

History

Background

There is little to no known information about Captain Black. In the first episode, he was revealed to be part of Interpol after Jackie left. He also had been working secretly at Section 13 during the time Jackie was his partner. Captain Augustus Black is an old friend of Jackie Chan and the leader of the government organization known as Section 13. When the Dark Hand displayed an interest in ancient artifacts (actually Shendu's talismans), Black recruited his old friend Jackie as a consultant, but soon Jackie, his niece Jade and his Uncle all became personally embroiled in combat against Shendu and other magic-wielding forces. Black assists the characters of the show many times throughout the series, especially against each season's main threat.

Before revealing to Jackie he was head of Section 13, Black was an agent of INTERPOL (An agency aiding law enforcement around the world). He admits he's separated Section 13 in secret. When he left INTERPOL is a mystery. Likely within the six years he's been vacant from Jackie's life.

Originally a non-believer of magic, Captain Black was instantly converted when he saw Shendu in person (which does create some problems when he attempts to gain special permission for missions and equipment from his superiors against supernatural threats). Black is also a fan of James Bond and Elvis Presley (he's used James Bond's codename, 007, when using a code for his locked doors, and once stated that the only king he bows to wears Blue Suede Shoes, a reference to the Elvis song of the same name). Captain Black was born on October 27th, 1959, making him age 41 in the beginning of the show. When Jade's future self revisited the past, she revealed some information on Capt. Black in the future. In the future, Capt. Black gets relocated to the east coast to head the newly created, Section 14, passing on the mantle of Section 13 leader to Jade. Later on, Captain Black returns to Section 13, and Jade is reassigned to desk duty.

Powers and Abilities

As head of Section 13, Captain Black has control over most of the organization's day-to-day operations and he is shown to have excellent leadership over his subordinates. He is moderately skilled in hand-to-hand combat being able to perform basic punches, blocks, and dodges. However, he is not afraid to use weapons or Talisman magic if the situation is dire.

Trivia

• It was revealed that Jackie does not know Captain Black's birthday.
• Captain Black appears to be a James Bond fan as he chooses '007' as a password.
• He is also an Elvis Presley fan. In Black Magic, when Tarakudo lures him to the abandoned Alcatraz prison, he says, "The only king I bow to is Elvis! And I don't see you wearing blue suede shoes."
• Captain Black once attempted to make a chi spell in Uncle's shop, only for it to backfire and for him to become a toad.
• Black is usually one of the first people to get hurt/knocked out in a battle, mainly because of his weak and moderate fighting abilities.
• According to Tohru in Glove Story, if it weren't for Black pulling some strings, Tohru would be in prison due to working for the Dark Hand.
