Captain Adam

Captain Adam's History

Adam obtained his powers when he was present at an experimental uranium engine that was being tested, which it exploded, turning him into a disembodied mind with no sense of time. From his new perspective, he built himself a better body, retaining his quantum senses. However, Adam was afraid of what he has become and uncomfortable with his new abilities. He uses drugs to dampen the effects of his "quantum senses" and prefers to do as he is told by his masters in the military.

During the events of Final Crisis, he was recruited by Monitor Zillo Valla to fight Mandrakk the Dark Monitor; however, he was on board her ship when it was attacked by the destroyer Echo of Midnight, and only his use of the infinite navigation computer was enough to save the rest of the group by crash-landing in Limbo. There he helped fix the ship, but Monitor Zillo Valla arranged for the drugs managing his quantum-sense to wear off, and he united the minds of Superman and Ultraman to fight Mandrakk the Dark Monitor.
