Masters of Justice: Dynamo The Nuclear Man

Amalgam: Superman + Radioactive Man

Name Kal Kent

Origin: Smallville. The sleepy little town will forevr be etched in our memory as the place of great triumph and tragedy. For years after the famous meteor shower, the government began experimenting on the people of Smallville. Cadmus Labs had found that by exposing the unknown meteor rock to radiation, they could extract an almost self sustaining energy source.

So they began exposing the small town, littered with meteor rock to low and then eventually high levels of different types of radiation. That was when they discovered Kal Kent. Kal had gained awesome new abilities since the meteor shower.  He passed every test with flying colors and more.

In their zeal, Cadmus unleashed gamma energy, the rawest form of radiation, into Smallville. The area exploded with what were eventually term "Doomsday Monsters". The government had no choice but to nuke the town. Kal (who had taken to calling himself Dynamo and helping America against foes foreign and domestic) tried to stop the strike. But he was too late. The town was gone.

Dynamo founded the Masters of Justice to prevent a repeat. To this end, he has gatehered Earth's greatest champions.

Powers: Dynamo can manipulate radiation across the microwave spectrum. Abilities include radiation emission as heat, "hard" radiation (inflicting opponents with nausea, dizziness, and radiation poisoning), and hypnotic light. He can also absorb nuclear radiation without harm and convert it to energy for personal use such as strength enhancement or to cauterize wounds, create force fields, and emit electromagnetic radiation to deactivate machinery. He also has enhanced strength speed, stamina, and flight.
