|Intro              = '''Handsome Jack''' is the main antagonist of ''[[Borderlands 2]]'', and the deuteragonist of ''[[Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel]]''. He has taken over the [[Hyperion]] corporation, declared himself dictator of [[Pandora]], and stolen all of the credit for finding [[The Vault]], going so far as to claim responsibility for killing [[The Destroyer]]. A new team of [[Vault Hunters]] is tasked with killing Jack and restoring (relative) peace to Pandora.

Jack has a geostationary moon base (in the shape of an 'H') in the [[wikipedia:Lagrangian point|Lagrange point]] between Pandora and Pandora's geostationary moon [[Elpis]]. It acts as an homage to his ego as well as a supply base from which he can send supplies and troops down to Pandora. The satellite also has a lens that allows Jack to keep an eye on the Vault Hunters at all times.

|Background         =       Jack's father died when he was young and his mother left him in the 'care' of her mother Jack's grandmother, who was (at a minimum) physically abusive towards her grandson. The emotional trauma from these events was strong enough that as an adult Jack [[To Grandmother's House We Go|had his grandmother murdered]], and no doubt contributed towards his mental decline.

===Before the opening of the first Vault===
Later in life Jack married and had a daughter, [[Angel]], one of the universe's rare [[Siren]]s. During Angel's youth, he trapped her in [[Control Core Angel]] in order to use her to control Pandora's [[ECHOnet]] and to open the vault of [[The Warrior]]. In the Borderlands 2 story mission [[Data Mining]], Handsome Jack says that "I know you think I'm a monster. You think I enslaved Angel. But you didn't see what she did to her mother. I had to restrain Angel's power. You get that? I had to." The seeming implication is that Angel caused her mother's disappearance. However, this interpretation contradicts the journals in [[Get to Know Jack]]. While it is true that the third journal says that Jack's wife disappeared, it also says that Jack's wife suggested that "the Angel" be shut down. For there to be something ''to'' shut down, Control Core Angel must have already been active at that time, and therefore Jack's wife's disappearance could not have been the reason for the creation of Control Core Angel. Nor could whatever Angel "did to her mother"--if indeed anything happened at all--have been serious enough for her mother to agree with restraining Angel. A conversation in ''Tales from the Borderlands'' explains this discrepancy by clarifying that Jack remarried at some point after the death of Angel's mother, and that it was his second wife who wanted the "Angel Project" shut down and who left him over it.

One of the ECHO recorders shows an employee advising Jack to restrain Angel's power because of what she did to her mother. After which Jack proceeds to kill the employee through strangulation for mentioning his wife.

===After the opening of the first Vault===
[[File:BLTPS Jack Face Scarred.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Jack after being scarred by Lilith]]During the events of ''[[Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel]]'', it is revealed that Jack's initial plan was to manipulate the Vault Hunters into opening [[The Vault]] to release [[The Destroyer]] so he could obtain it for himself. After The Destroyer's defeat, he used its eye as the generator for a superweapon dubbed "The Eye of Helios", capable of destroying entire settlements. Jack planned to use the weapon to eliminate entire bandit camps and other undesirables ''en masse'' on Pandora to eventually civilize the planet.  Unfortunately the Eye was captured by [[Colonel Zarpedon]], who promptly turned it on Pandora's moon Elpis in an effort to prevent its Vault from being found by Hyperion, nearly leading to the moon's destruction. Jack managed to retake the Eye from Zarpedon with the aid of a group of Vault Hunters he had hired, along with assistance from [[Lilith]], [[Roland]], and [[Moxxi]], who then betrayed Jack by destroying the Eye, not wanting him to have that much power.

Once the Eye was destroyed, Jack required a new weapon of power. He managed to open the Vault on Elpis, which housed an object shaped like the eponymous Vault symbol that contained the knowledge of the [[Eridians]]. As Jack grabbed the object, he began seeing visions of [[The Warrior]], the Vault it was sealed in, and the Eridium buried through the planet. [[Lilith]] then appeared and destroyed the object, causing a blast of energy that destroyed Jack's left eye and branded his face with the Vault symbol. 

===After the opening of the Elpis Vault===
After having his trademark mask grafted to his face, Jack proceeded to murder the President of the Hyperion Corporation, [[Tassiter|Harold Tassiter]], and declare himself the new President. From this point forward, he began calling himself "Handsome Jack".

Shortly after killing Tassiter, Jack discovered evidence of the H-Source, a collection of Hyperion technological secrets, buried in the experimental "Fragtrap" [[Claptrap]]'s system. After the Vault Hunters extracted the H-Source, Jack used one of the modules to remotely shut down all robots of the Claptrap line, and he personally shot the Fragtrap prototype.

Jack then began focusing all his efforts into obtaining the Warrior and exacting his revenge on Pandora and the [[Vault Hunters]]. He used his daughter [[Angel]] to gain full surveillance of Pandora and control of the ECHOnet system. He then established mining operations to dig up all the Eridium on the planet, which would be used (among other, more gruesome experiments) to create Hyperion's proprietary [[E-Tech]] line of weapons.

Jack also ordered Hyperion to enact corporate and military control over Pandora. With help from [[Shep Sanders|an informant]], Jack located [[New Haven]] and destroyed the settlement with his cyborg subordinate [[Wilhelm]]. When New Haven's administer [[Helena Pierce]] tried to escape with survivors, Jack captured Pierce and personally executed her before having Wilhelm kill everybody else. He later tracked down the Vault Key and its owner Dr. [[Patricia Tannis]], who was tortured into giving up the object. Jack then had Angel artificially charge the Vault Key by pumping her body with a constant supply of Eridium.

[[File:Jack_intro.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Handsome Jack's Intro]]Handsome Jack sought to lure out Vault Hunters to his sphere of influence by displaying a need for them, then left them for dead in the [[Windshear Waste]]. He constantly communicates with them through the ECHOnet, taunting them, threatening them, and otherwise manipulating them. His building of [[Opportunity]] and the drilling into Pandora's core is no secret to the citizens of [[Sanctuary]], but he still keeps a leader-like façade when addressing the citizens of Hyperion-settled villages.

|Involvement        = Following Angel's death, Jack makes his first physical appearance in the story and kills Roland. Lilith attempts to attack him, but Jack throws a Siren power-restraining collar at her neck and captures her to replace his recently-deceased daughter as a catalyst to charge the Vault key. He rescinds the bounty on the Vault Hunters, vowing to exact vengeance himself for Angel's death, and threatening to hunt down anyone who kills the Vault Hunters before he does.

His final appearance is at the [[Vault of the Warrior]], and is fought as one of the two final bosses. After being defeated by the Vault Hunters, Jack takes the already-charged Vault Key and uses it to summon and control the Warrior. The Vault Hunters defeat it as well, thus ruining his plans for dominion over Pandora. Jack angrily chastises them for stopping him from bringing his vision of order to the lawless planet, and is then executed for his crimes by either the Vault Hunter or Lilith. If Jack dies at the hands of Lilith, his mask falls off and his real face is visible.

===Tales from the Borderlands===
When [[Rhys]] attempts to use [[Professor Nakayama]]'s ID drive to track the money he lost, he collapses onto the floor, and hears a mysterious voice claiming to be disappointed at how Rhys is trying to follow in "[his] footsteps". Later, while infiltrating the abandoned Atlas warehouse, Rhys tries to get the lift operational, but fails as his system suddenly runs into glitches. The mysterious voice once again taunts him. After [[Bossanova]] is killed by [[Zer0]], Rhys and the gang ([[Fiona]], [[Vaughn]] and [[Sasha]]) discover a secret room containing Atlas technology, including information about a "Gortys Project". The voice then begins to get clearer inside Rhys' head, and is then revealed to be the voice of Handsome Jack, who then appears behind him as a hologram. Rhys initially suspects Jack is indeed just a hologram, though he soon shows he is self-aware and active; however, at first Jack does not realize nor believe that he is dead. He tells Rhys to bring him back to Helios so he can be transferred into a new body, allowing them to run Hyperion together (but "mostly [Jack]" will control it). Jack later upgrades Rhys' Echo-Eye implant to give him the ability to hack into machinery and control it at his will. When Rhys and Fiona finally discover the Gortys Project's location, they are attacked by numerous sentry drones, which Rhys can use for his assistance against [[Vasquez]] and [[August]]. If so, Jack will take control of them by merging his consciousness into Rhys'.

'''Radio announcements'''
*''"Handsome Jack here. When I opened the Vault and destroyed the Destroyer inside -- ironic, I know! -- I had a Hyperion weapon in my hand. When I cleaned up the frontier and burned that bandit settlement of New Haven to the ground, it was a Hyperion pistol I held in my fist. And goddamned every day as I watch over this planet, as its protector, as its champion, and as its hero, it's Hyperion firearms I put my trust in. Hell, that's why I bought the goddamn company in the first place. This is Handsome Jack, and I'm signing off on Hyperion! What do you guys think? Accent too much?"''
*''"Hey there. This is Handsome Jack, reminding you that we at Hyperion are still offering bounties for Pandora's most wanted. The reward has risen to eight billion dollars for the bandit we know as ''Brick'' -- big guy, looks like he survives on nothing but ground beef and roids. And hookers. Uh, we're also still offering six billion dollars for the capture of the ex-Underdome star known as ''Mordecai'', as well as a small reward for the capture of his stupid little bird, Bloodwing -- oh, sorry. I, uh... read that backwards. It's six billion for the bird, twenty bucks for the has-been. My mistake. And, as always, I am personally willing to offer thirty billion dollars for the capture of the bandit leader known Roland -- double that if you use Hyperion weapons to bring him down, okay? Okay. Oh, and stop contacting us with questions regarding the bounty on the little freakshow known as ''Lilith'' -- the fugitive was confirmed dead months ago, okay? Alright. Handsome Jack, signing off. Hyperion rules."''

*''"Hey kids, did you know that your risk of being disemboweled increases by 80,000% upon leaving Opportunity? It's a scientific fact!"''
*''"Did you know that littering in Opportunity is punishable by death? If not, you also ought to know that complaining about Opportunity's laws is considered verbal littering."''
*''"Did you know some people on Pandora still believe in silly superstitions like angels, demons, and ancient alien warriors? We call those people "bandits."''
*''"Hey kids, did you know what your mommies and daddies gave up so your family could live in Opportunity? Literally nothing! Your family paid to be here! I'm the one who feeds and protects everyone! Remember, we should all love our parents, but love me more."''

|Notes              = 
*Handsome Jack operates like an [[Engineer (Hyperion)|Engineer]] when in combat.
*Handsome Jack will drop a purple-class head customization, named Handsome Jack's Mask when he is killed. Krieg's version of the mask is named "GO TO HELL DIE DIE DIE".
*Jack's death has no effect on active optional missions, so his ECHO messages continue, even after his demise.
**Secondary audio exists for most of Jack's "live" lines, such as the discovery of [[Gwen's Head]] in [[The Dust]], only delivered by [[Claptrap]].
*[[Handsome Sorcerer]] is Jack's representation in ''[[Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep]]''.
|Trivia             = 
*According to the Hyperion profile sheet, Jack is from Tantalus. 
*Jack appears to have [[wikipedia:Heterochromia|heterochromia]]<ref>[http://borderlandsthegame.com/index.php/news/us-handsome-jack-cosplay-reference-guide]</ref>. It is genetic--his mask was fashioned to have it, as well.
*His real name is "John", as stated multiple times in The Pre-Sequel.
*The name "Jack" means "God is gracious", and the name "John" means "The grace or mercy of the Lord".
*He has a diamond pony called "[[Butt Stallion]]", which Jack clarifies is in fact a living horse made of diamonds.
*Jack destroyed [[Mad Moxxi|Mad Moxxi's]] Underdome after he thought she was cheating on him.
*Handsome Jack was partially inspired by a particular interview with Nathan Fillion on Jimmy Kimmel Live.<ref>[http://www.gearboxsoftware.com/community/articles/1091/inside-the-box-writing-handsome-jack]</ref>
*Game writer Anthony Burch originally intended "Handsome Jack," a reference to Doctor Who companion [[w:c:tardis:Jack Harkness|Captain Jack Harkness]]<ref>[http://www.gearboxsoftware.com/community/articles/1099]</ref>, to simply be a placeholder name. However, the name proved popular among the production team and they decided to keep it.

*''Hey vault hunter, Handsome Jack here, president of Hyperion. Let me just tell you how things work. Vault hunter shows up, Vault hunter looks for the new vault, Vault hunter gets killed. By me. You see--you seeing the problem here? You're still alive. So if you could just do me a favor and off yourself, that'd be great. Thanks, pumpkin.''
*''Hey! How - ugh, these pretzels suck... So, how's your day been, buddy? We haven't really talked much since I left you for dead. Hey, you think you'll freeze to death out there? Nah, probably not. The bandits'll get you first. My day? It's been pretty good. Just bought a pony made of diamonds, because I'm rich. So, you know. That's cool. Kay, bye.''
*''I'm rackin' my brain trying to think of a name of that diamond pony I bought. I was gonna call it ‘piss-for-brains' in honor of you, but that just feels... immature. Maybe ‘Butt Stallion'? Nah, that's worse. Tell you what, I'll give it some thought. ''
*''Attention people of [[Sanctuary]], the "last stronghold of the resistance," life as you knew it on [[Pandora]], the bandits, the fighting, that time has passed. If you let it, this could be an era of peace. Just turn yourselves in and I promise, your deaths will be quick.''
*''Like my little speech there? I lied about the mercy part, I'm gonna spend a long time torturing you bandit scum.''
*''Oh, great you made it to Banditville'', ''huh? It'll be good to see a friendly face when I'm burning that place to the ground.''
*'' So, you think the Firehawk captured Roland? You know, I hear the '[[Firehawk]] liquifies bandits and drinks them like flesh smoothies, but nah, I'm sure Roland is just fine'''. '''''
*''Look, even if you do rescue [[Roland]] from this [[Firehawk]] guy, the [[Crimson Raiders]] aren't exactly long for this world, if you know what I mean. You know what? I think you deserve a hint- my secret involves your pathetic resistance dying and me laughing, a lot.''
*''Look at those murderous Bloodshots. Don't you think Pandora would be better off without them?''
*''Aaaaand that's how Handsome Jack pays a ransom! Long time no see, Roland. ''
*''Wow. Bravo. Cheers. Good job. Champagne. Slow clap. You got the damn power core, didn't you?''
*''Hey, I think its time I let you in on that secret- [[Angel]] is working for me.''
*''Excellent work Angel - now, lets kill ourselves some Vault Hunters.''
*''Argh, y'see this is what I just don't get about you bad guys. You know the hero is going to win, but you just don't die quickly. For example, this one guy in [[New Haven]], right? City's burning, people are dying left and right, yada yada yada. And this jackhole rushes me with a freakin' spoon! A spoon! And I'm dying laughing, right? So I scoop out his stupid little eyeballs, and he can't see and he's bumping into things and his kids are all like, "waaah!" and I just can't stop laughing! Anyway, the moral is: you're a total bitch. ''
*''Angel, you can stop pretending to help the bad guys now. Angel?''
*''Angel, what the hell are you doing, those are the bad guys!''
*''Dear residents of ([[Overlook]]) I, Handsome Jack, am (moderately happy) to welcome you into the Hyperion family! Watch out for those ([[Stalker (enemy)|Stalker]]) attacks!''
*''Oh, hey you're in the preserve. You know, I had planned on luring you in here and having you killed but- well, you just kind of showed up! Thanks for saving me the trouble, kiddo!''
*''This is Handsome Jack, thanking you, loyal test subject for helping us bring Pandora into the future. The experiments you'll be put through will help us uncover new uses for Eridium, new cures for medicine and- Seriously? Why are you having me read this crap? This is freaking hilarious. They know we're gonna mutate the hell out of 'em, why lie to-''
*''Looking for [[Bloodwing]]? Oh, I moved her a few hours ago. Somewhere a little more... dramatic.''
*''I had my boys build this facility to research the full abilities of [[Slag]]. See, it's not just an elemental type, if you know how to use it, slag has... lots of applications.''
*''Want Bloodwing back, huh? Shame, I'd been doing some really interesting Eridium experiments on her, but heck, if you want her back- she's all yours.''
*''Just give it up, kiddo! Bloodwing's got all the elements at her disposal![[Fire|Fire]], [[Electrocute|electricty]], [[Corrosive|corrosion]], slag! And uh- damn it, what was that last one?''
*''Slag, fire, electricity, corrosion is coming up next, damn it, what else is there?''
*''Oh, now I remember! EXPLOSIIIIVE!!!''
*''Heh, that's cute.''
*''THAT is why you don't screw with me. Now, you and your friend [[Mordecai]] turn yourselves in, or that dumbass bird is just the beginning!''
*''Aw, god darn it, I had this violin around here somewhere, I was gonna play it all sarcastically- it was gonna be awesome. Blake! Where's a bloody violin!?''
*''All right, all right, cool, cool, I found it. (ahem) This is an ode to Mordecai's stupid bird, in E. [terrible violin playing] Aw, you know what, screw you! It would have been hilarious if I'd found it earlier. Shut up! ''
*''Aw, what are you doing now, tool? Petty vandalism? Are you serious? Is this how far you've fallen? It's just sad.''
*''Alright! You made your point. You don't like the statue, I get it. I look a little too badass with my foot in that bandit's face, right? You're jealous, I get it.''
*''Does that feel good, you get that out of your system? Great, now go home and stop screwing with my stuff or we're gonna have a frickin' problem.''
*''Hey, you know what book I'm reading right there? It's called "101 Ways To Forcibly Make Vandals Eat Their Own Entrails." I'll let you borrow it sometime.''
*''I can actually see why you'd want to tear that particular statue down. Clearly, you're illiterate and the image of me enjoying a good book just makes your head hurt something awful.''
*''Oh. come ON! What's wrong with that statue?! I'm holding the [[Vault key]] and a BABY. You know what babies are right? Those little soft pink things your kind eats after you're done rolling around in your own feces? ring a bell?''
*''Oh, for the LOVE of - okay! Alright, great, success! You're pissing me off. Good for you! Here's your prize!''
*''What is this even ACCOMPLISHING!? Are you trying to piss me off? Was that your goal? Well mission accomplished, jaggoff. Y'know when I'm curb-stomping you dumb ass to death, you can take solace in the fact that one time, for like eight seconds, you mildly irritated me. Good for you. Your parents must be so proud.''
*''Yeah - no - go ahead. Knock that last one down. I've already got a great idea for a new statue. It's just going to be me - kicking you - in the junk. I'm gonna commission like fifteen of those sumbitches and put them everywhere!''
*''You are such a jackass.''

*''Ol' [[Mad Moxxi|balloon tits]] is still holdin' a grudge against me, huh? I mean, don't get me wrong, I get it - once you've eaten prime rib for free, it's hard to go back to suckin' down hamburgers for cash. If you know what I'm talking about. Do you know what I'm talking about? ''(pause) ''Dicks! I'm talkin' about dicks!''
*''Did you really think you could hide from me, Angel? Did you? Now say goodbye to you're little friend - say it!''
*''So the vault hunter met the slabs, huh? What a great opportunity to kill two bandits with one mortar barrage.''
*''Oh, hey, you got through the barrier. That's cute. 'Course, the [[BNK-3R|bunker]] is going to obliterate you, but cute nonetheless.''
*''Hey, do you know how I got my hands on that vault key? You see, a few years back me and [[Wilhelm]] paid your little buddy [[Tannis]] a visit. And we beat her for hours. We ripped that key from her broken hands. But we let her live. Because that's what heroes do, they show mercy.''
*''All right funtime is over kiddies... [[Brick]] and his mouth-breathers couldn't bust my bunker, and neither can you!''
*''Did you actually think I'd protect [[Angel]] with nothing more than some robots and some flimsy turrets? You see, you're not at the bunker right now. The bunker isn't a place. (pause) Meet the BNK-3R, the finest defense bot ever built. Designed her myself. Now, do me a favor and die.''
*''Consider this your  final warn - no, MY final warning. Stop now and I promise I'll make it quick. But take one more step and every soul back at Sanctuary is going to die watching me rip their lungs from their chests.''
*''You stay the hell away from my daughter!''
*''Is this how you bandits play, huh? Can't go directly to me, you have to kill an innocent girl!?''
*''Angel, baby, everything you could ever want is in these four walls. Don't you know how much I've sacrificed for you? The bandits I've killed, the people I've bribed, it was all to protect you!!''
*''Okay. Please, listen to me, don't kill my baby girl.''
*''Who cares about the stupid vault key, you're gonna end the life of an innocent girl!''
*'''Sup.''
*''What's that saying? Never go up against a man who's got nothing left to lose? See, now I'm going to show you just how much you have to lose. And I've got the most powerful [[Siren]] on the planet to do it. [[Lilith]], kill the vault hunter, we have a date to keep with the [[Warrior]].  ''
*''Wait - did you - did you just kill my girlfriend? Huh, that's actually kind of pissing me off.''
*''Enjoy your nothing, idiot!''
*''Great! Say this to 'em: Don't be alarmed. I need you to stay calm and don't let on that anyone is talking to you. Start making your way off the bus.''
