History

Created by Emilio Storme, a brilliant but mentally unstable scientist who was fired from S.T.A.R. Labs.  The android was programmed to believe that it was actually a human being that had been given super-powers by his master, Storme.

Storme had sent the android to S.T.A.R. Labs to steal meterological equipment he needed to create a storm-bomb that could devastate entire cities in his quest for world domination.  The android was ultimately defeated by Superman.

Lightning could generate brilliant lightning blasts and could fly.
