HistoryEdit
Origin
Daniel "Danny" Tsang is a stuntman for Fragrant Harbor Films in Hong Kong. During the filming of Unclean Policeman IV director Dickson Kurata sneaks a crew into the basement laboratory of the Hong Kong branch of S.T.A.R. Labs. Danny is distracted while performing a dangerous stunt over a vat of experimental fuel cell plasma. The mutagenic compound permeates his cells and alters his body chemistry transforming him into a superstrong human battery. His best friend is former S.T.A.R. Labs scientist Charlie Lau; Charlie creates his uniform and invents his Striker Plates and Flight Jacket.
Superboy
On his first adventure he helps Superboy defeat the Golden Sorcerer, actually a transformed Dickson Kurata who had also bathed in the fuel cell plasma. The Golden Sorcerer's energy supply is much greater than Striker Z's and so is able to manifest solid energy constructs. Superboy is finally able to defeat the Golden Sorcerer by attaching Striker Z's Omega Cannon to his body and using it to siphon off all his energy.
Doctor Impossible
He later appears unconscious and lying on the floor of a S.T.A.R. Labs facility after it is attacked by Doctor Impossible and his partners. The Guardian later mentions to his fellow Justice League members that Danny's pelvis was broken during the battle.

- Dazzle Strobe: A blast of light that disorients enemies by blinding them with bursts of stroboscopic light.
- Flight Jacket: A jack decked out with hundreds of tiny impeller jets, the jacket allows him to fly short distances.
- Omega Cannon: A cannon that concentrates all his bio-energy in one directed blast, but its use leaves him helpless.
- Photonic Shiv: A short blade made from coherent light.
- Sonic Beamer: A gun-like object that broadcasts disorienting sound waves or concussive blasts of focused sound.
- Striker Plates: Plates that can concentrate energy for concussive blows capable of punching through concrete or shattering steel or disabling jolts like an electroshock weapon.
