Brainstorm

Roy Connors

Roy Connors was a young mutant with the potential for tremendous psionic abilities. Unfortunately, he lacked moral guidance in using his powers. A super-powered delinquent, he came into conflict with The Scarab, who took Brainstorm under his wing and helped teach him how to use his powers responsibly.
Brainstorm proved himself when he helped fend off the members of the Freedom League , who were under the control of The Scions of Sobek. Unfortunately, Brainstorm exerted his powers to the utmost and the strain proved too great for him. He suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and died shortly after the Scions were defeated. The Freedom League made Brainstorm an honorary member of the team, and he is remembered with a memorial on Heroes' Knoll.
