Okay. "Goliath was a name another Avenger went by. He had this gas that could make him grow, like, giant-sized, and he'd get all strong and tough, proportionally speaking. And then he got out of it for a while, and during a fight my bow broke, and I thought I'd try a new thing. Have an actual power instead of just bein' the 'trick arrows' guy." There, that explains it.
Oh, wait, costume, crap. "In my defense, it was the late sixties, nobody knew how to dress. Some people couldn't even get naked right."
