[edit] Character history

[edit] Classic history

Atmos was a relatively minor character, and did not play a major role in any legion storylines. He once tried out for the Legion of Super-Heroes, but despite being easily powerful enough, his arrogant attitude and callous disregard for others lead to his being rejected.

For a time after Dream Girl left Star Boy, she went out with Atmos, but eventually realized he was using an ability previously unknown to the Legion to manipulate her will.

[edit] Powers

Atmos is an imposing figure, standing nearly 10' tall with a large mohawk. When he transforms into superhero form, apparently his armpits become inivisible. He has powers of super-strength (his training facility includes a pair of barbells the size of a small car), flight, invulnerability and some form of mind manipulation.

[edit] Weaknesses

Atmos tends to underestimate opponents trusting in his power level to overwhelm opponents.

[edit] Notes

When Atmos left Xanthu to try out for the Legion, Xanthu attempted to force Star Boy to take his place.

[edit] Post Zero Hour

Atmos was a member of a superhero team called the Amazers on Xanthu.
