Character Sheets 1982 1987 1992    
  • Badass Baritone: His voice has always been described as 'impressively deep'
  • Deadpan Snarker: Has demonstrated an ability to keep up with Starforce and Ladyhawk on more than one occasion
  • Make Me Wanna Shout: Can project up to lethal amounts of damage via sound too low for humans to hear
  • Swiss Army Superpower: Being able to tune your sonic blasts to match the resonant frequency(ies) in your target is much more useful than you think. In many ways, he is TASK FORCE's most versatile ranged combatant.
  • Welcome To The Caribbean, Mon: Adopts a ridiculously-fake Jamaican accent when in public as a superhero because he is an increasingly-famous jazz artist in secret identity
