HISTORY

Vin Darvo was a maintenance technician on an orbital monitoring station in Galactic Federation space. Gifted but resentful of the elite and famous, he developed a hostility toward the heroic establishment. A reactor malfunction exposed him to unstable stellar photonic energy, transforming him into a being of living light. Becoming Spectra-Blast, he pursued wealth, revenge and notoriety, eventually clashing with Captain Flash Future and the Galactic Space Rangers. A temporal accident later stranded him briefly in the 21st century before he returned home.

POWERS/ABILITIES

Spectra-Blast is composed of photonic energy. He can fly at light-speed, pass through matter, manipulate his visible appearance, and fire energy across the electromagnetic spectrum, from concentrated lasers to infrared and radiation blasts. He is immune to most conventional harm and can survive the vacuum of space.
