          HISTORY          

After a laboratory accident exposed him to cobalt rays, Professor Keith Spencer discovered that instead of dying a slow and painful death, his irradiated cells became stronger: his muscle density tripled, his speed increased to levels superhuman, he became immune to extreme temperatures and virtually invulnerable. Promising to use his new powers to help humanity and fight evil, he became the hero in disguise Major Blast. Rick Davis, one of his students, became Rocky Thunder, his superhero assistant. 

          POWERS & WEAPONS          

Superhuman strength and resistance to physical damage. Capable of moving at superhuman speeds. By simply clapping his hands, Major Blast was capable of creating a mini-atomic blast.
