Ed's Notes: So... You mean this ISN'T the cute, Asian-bug chick from Guardians of the Galaxy? Oh... alrighty then.
I'm not sure the "Energy Vampirism" description should be counted as a Bonus. To me the whole thing reads like a Limitation on the Power Reserve. It doesn't make it stornger after all.
This guy's a fair badass, and few folks, shot of teh real heavy-hitters, are going to want to run into him on Apokolips.
