Bio:
Anthony had no idea he was a mutant through his entire childhood. He grew up in a poor neighborhood in Mercury Mile, an infamously shady part of Ford City. But much to his mother’s delight, Anthony was able to get a scholarship to Malachi University thanks to his amazing ability int he game of basketball.
But his dream of being the first person in his family to earn a degree was cut short during a basketball game. Anthony jumped to block an opponent’s shot and, though his fingers clearly made no contact with either the ball or the shooter, the shot was deflected.
An investigation ensued, brought on by the sudden insurgence of mutants across the country, and it was found that Anthony was indeed superhuman. Despite swearing that he had no knowledge of his power, Anthony was kicked off th team and his scholarship was revoked. Unable to pay for any more semesters of college, he was forced to drop out and move back in with his mother. He began work at a local gas station.
One fateful night, while Anthony and another cashier were working, an armed man entered the store and demanded money. When Anthony’s co-worker told him they never had more than $50 in the store at a time, the robber pulled the trigger of his pistol, aimed directly at the other man. Reacting at a speed that amazed even himself, Anthony was able to change the bullet’s direction to spin around and hit the mugger instead.
The criminal was apprehended and Anthony suddenly realized that he had the power to right many wrongs in the city. For a while he operated only in Mercury Mile, but soon let his presence and his power be known over all of Ford City.
He joined the Dynamos Special Forces after watching them battle the villain Mastermind and his minions.
