Alias/Code Name: The Blue Marvel
Age: 80's
Character Type: Super Powered Human
Gender: Male
Alignment: Good
Appearance:
Powers/Weapons:
Powers
Anti-Matter Energy Absorption: Theoretically, it seems to be the main source of Blue Marvel's power. This source of power is the energy released from anti-matter which derives from the inter-dimensional universe called the Negative Zone. Adam Brashear is the first human anti-matter generator and reactor. The experiment he gained his powers from renders his form unaffected from anti-matter.
Superhuman Strength: Blue Marvel possesses vast levels of superhuman strength. He was seen as capable of effortlessly lifting the 1960 era's American warship 'Enterprise' which weighs over 93,000 tons. The Blue Marvel is capable of greater feats of strength as when he easily moved a meteor "easily the size of Arkansas."
The Blue Marvel is even strong enough to strike with such force that he was able to make the Sentry bleed, knock him into orbit and momentarily knock him out all with a single punch. The Watcher states that Adam is capable of splitting the moon into two with a blow. He was able to directly engage Iron man, Ares, Wonder Man and Ms. Marvel in combat at the same time and casually overpower them.
Enhanced Mental Perception: Blue Marvel possesses the ability to sense & comprehend things on levels that far exceed human capabilities.
Superhuman Durability : Blue Marvel seems to possess nigh-invulnerability, being capable of withstanding tremendous impact forces. He has survived a hydrogen bomb blowing up in his hands unfazed. He is capable of withstanding blows from a large collection of superhumans made up of Ms. Marvel, Ares, Iron Man, Wonder Man, and Sentry unharmed. Blue Marvel can also breathe and survive in space.
Flight: Blue Marvel can fly far beyond supersonic speeds. He has been seen flying into space unaided under his own power].
Superhuman Speed: Blue Marvel is capable of moving vastly faster than any normal human being, and he is able to move fast enough to keep up with the Sentry.
Superhuman Reflexes: Blue Marvel reflexes are similarly heightened and are superior to those of the finest human athletes being capable of catching bullets and dodging projectiles.
Superhuman Agility: Blue Marvel's natural balance, agility, and body coordination are enhanced to levels that are far beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.
Healing Factor: Despite his nigh invulnerability to injury, it is possible to injure Blue Marvel. If injured, his body is capable of quickly repairing damaged tissue with much greater speed and efficiency than the normal human body.
Superhuman Senses: Blue Marvel possesses sensory abilities that exceed far above normal human capabilities.
Anti-matter Manipulation: Blue Marvel can absorb and generate vast amounts of anti-matter energy for various effects.
History:
Adam Brashear is a former fullback at Cornell University who graduated magna cum laude, and a veteran of the Korean War, a member of the Marine Corps with two Silver Stars. The Marine Corps was where he first met Conner Sims, the friend he would later know as "Anti-Man". Brashear later became the project lead on a scientific attempt to harness anti-matter through the creation of a "Negative Reactor" which created a bridge between the Negative Zone and the positive matter universe. This reactor would then allow for an almost unlimited source of clean energy by allowing devices to tap the energy generated by a stable event horizon balanced between these positive and negative universes. Due to the unexpected explosion of the reactor, both Brashear and Sims were subjected to mutagenic radiation generated by the then unstable event horizon, and while Sims' body decohered into energy, Brashear became a stable "antimatter reactor" and developed a set of superhuman abilities.
In 1962 Adam received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President John F. Kennedy on the day the President asked him to retire. The reason why he was asked to retire was that it had been discovered by the public that he is an African-American (As the Blue Marvel, Brashear wore a full-face helmet, which on this occasion was damaged). This immediately led to massive controversy; the America of 1962 was definitely not ready for a black super-man. The President reluctantly decided to ask Brashear to step back, and torn between myriad considerations, the Blue Marvel conceded.
He came back for one final mission and defeated the herald of an alien armada bent on enslaving the earth. After that fight, he left the Medal of Freedom in the Blue Area of the Moon, where he first met Uatu the Watcher. His conversation with the Watcher was interrupted by the late arrival of the alien armada, and he was forced to defeat them. The United States Government used this final mission to fake his death. The government later sets up with covert S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Marlene Frazier as Brashear's monitor, she was known to him as Candace. Frazier eventually became his lover and later his wife, the mother of their two children. Brashear later became a tenured professor of physics at the University of Maryland.
After Anti-Man's return resulted in the Avengers being soundly defeated, Tony Stark (Iron Man), tracks down Brashear and with the help of Reed Richards they come up with a plan to stop Anti-Man (Conner Sims). After a surprise confrontation by Sims on the moon, Brashear is left unconscious. Later after an extended fight with Anti-Man, Adam's wife Candace Brashear is accidentally killed. At the conclusion of their battle, Brashear takes Anti-Man up to the edge of the ionosphere and siphons off his remaining "anti-matter energy" causing his waveform to permanently decohere and collapse.
Afterward, Brashear recently returned to action as a full-time superhero in Age of Heroes #3. And after a discussion with Uatu the Watcher, he ends up traveling to Uzbekistan to help the Winter Guard subdue an alternate version of King Hyperion. This version of King Hyperion had somehow found his way to Earth. He was then shown aiding humanitarian efforts across the world.
