And here is our final entry for this session...

THE TWISTER

 

 
 

ORIGINS
An unknown youth is caught up in a whirling twister and finds that the experience has left him "a strange being" who is "part of the cyclone itself." Seizing the opportunity to use his strange new powers for the good of mankind, he adopts the identity of the TWISTER!

POWERS/ABILITIES
The TWISTER can fly, and he packs a punch that can send the bad guys crashing through walls! But his greatest feat is whirling his powerful arms to create a tornado strong enough to carry cars or move them along at super speed. Of course, the TWISTER uses his powers for other things, but these are his main "tricks of the trade".

HISTORY
The Twister works in Manhattan, but he fights crime in Florida and other places. The TWISTER teams-up with BLUE BOLT (see individual entry) and SUB-ZERO (see individual entry) for one adventure each, but The TWISTER only has seven solo adventures before blowing off into the sunset.
