Ed's Notes: Not much in the way of Powers, if one needs a generic terrorist, anarchist,
 or insurrectionist to overthrow a presumably benevolent government, this guy could make a reasonable, yet generic fill in for that role. Obviously he's more about the politics and the scheming that the toe-to-toe fighting, but there you go.

Ed's Notes: I'm guessing that in the New 52, his powers are a bit different. Form the picture, it looks like Earth Control or Earth animation. The stats above are from his Outsider's days.  While it's a standard use of the Power, it's worth noting that when he combined his Gravity Decrease Power with his Energy Blast, he can mimic 9 AP's of Flight.

2nd Edition sources gave him a Flight or 6, which is unnecessary for the reasons mentioned above, not to mention weaker for the same reason. His Infl and Aura are reversed, his Charisma is 8 and he has 55 Hero Points.
