Dash Dartwell was a college athlete at Harvard University. His biochemistry professor, Dr. Drew Moss, gave him the Metabo-tablets, which gave him superhuman speed and recovery. At first the tablets only had a temporary effect, but eventually it became permanent. Dr Moss made sure the Metabo-tablets only worked with Dash. So anyone who wanted to appropriate the formula would be very disappointed. At first, Dash used the powers of the Metabo-tablets to win an inter-university competition against Yale University, breaking four world records at the same time. That's when the press dubbed him the Human Meteor, a name he later used when he decided to use his new abilities to fight crime. Dash married Dr. Moss daughter, Bettie.
Dartwell possessed superhuman speed and reflexes derived from the use of Metabo-tablets. Not only is he able to move almost faster than the eye can see, but he also recovers at superhuman speed.
