Misha

Misha (short for Mikhail), also known as the Heavy Weapons Guy, is a towering hulk of a man that hails from the USSR.

History
Heavy's father was a "counter-revolutionary" who was executed, and his mother, sisters and himself were sent to a north Siberian Gulag in September 1941. The Gulag was destroyed and all prisoners escaped in December of the same year.

During the summer of 1968, Heavy was one of nine mercenaries to be recruited by Reliable Excavation Demolition and Builders League United to continue Redmond and Blutarch's neverending war to seize the land left to them by their deceased father.

Trivia

 * In the Meet the Director comic, it was revealed that Heavy sleeps in a bed next to his minigun which he named Sasha, and the gun is in a smaller bed.
