History

Dowling has been involved in much of the secretive scientific research conducted behind the scenes in the last 50 years, including an American concentration camp called Science City Zero where political dissidents were used as guinea pigs. He also has connections to the Hark Corporation. He is distantly related to the Dowling Gang, enemies of the Dead Ranger (a Lone Ranger analogue), who was the father of William Leather's adoptive father. He met his end, due to a well-laid trap set by Elijah Snow, whereby he fell to his death when Elijah summoned a shiftship from the ground beneath them.

Powers and Abilities

Powers

Mind Colonization: His power is the ability to "stretch" his mind, which spreads out and colonizes the minds of anyone within one hundred feet of him. The full implications of this power are unknown, but this "stretching" of his mind is the analogue to the flexibility of Mr. Fantastic.

Abilities

Genius-Level Intellect: After the Artemis shot, his already-formidable scientific ability seems to have been enhanced by access to alien/bleed technologies. While it is easy to suppose that his intellect has been enhanced, there has been no indication to date whether it is somehow superhuman.


Trivia

A parallel to Marvel's Mr. Fantastic.
