Characters Continuity Forgot #5

Kriss-Kross


You better hope he does, Kriss-Kross, because not too many other people do!

Would be double-agent and Russian spy, Kristopher Kross, was caught by Superman as he tried to smuggle some "computer components" and a "plutonium based power pack" over to the Soviet Union. After his getaway jet was disabled, he attempted to parachute to safety but was struck by lightning while clutching onto his stolen goods.

After finally being apprehended and turned over to the military, Kross finds that he has become physically fused with the high-tech equipment, giving him the ability to control technology. His power will now criss-cross the world, creating a network of chaos under his control!

And he would've gotten away with it too, if only Firestorm hadn't been around to disrupt the NASA satellites he was stealing energy from to beat on Superman with.

Alas, a super-villain moniker derived from your real name that perfectly suits your powers and modus operandi can only take you so far. In this case it was one issue, and poor old Kriss-Kross was never seen again.
