History

Mano was born on the planet Angtu some time in the latter half of the 30th century. Embittered at the world around him, he channeled his destructive mutant energy into the planet's surface, ultimately destroying the entire world. He soon met other like-minded criminals and helped to form a team known as the Fatal Five.

A short while later, an entity known as the Sun-Eater threatened to consume Earth's sun, thus destroying the galaxy. Desperate to stop the Sun-Eater's efforts, Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes recruited the aid of the Fatal Five. The Fatal Five reluctantly agreed to help the Legion, and the Sun-Eater's efforts were averted.
