Ben Krull

Ben Krull is a former reactor engineer and the villain known as Reactron.

Becoming Reactron
A reactor engineer at the Bakerline Nuclear Power Station, Ben and his wife Alyssa were both exposed to radiation when terrorists attempted to start a melt-down at the power station. Though Ben survived, Alyssa however didn't, prompting Ben to blame Superman for the death of his wife. Using advanced bio medical tech suit, Ben fought Superman over the years, with neither coming out on top.

Seeking out Supergirl
At a junkyard, Ben watched the news confirming Supergirl's relation to Superman. Wanting Superman to know what it was like to suffer and lose everything, Ben sought Supergirl out as she was helping with the aftermath of a multiple car collision. He then proceeded to attack her, with the two battling until Supergirl managed to damage Ben's suit. Krull then went to Lord Technologies, abducting CEO Maxwell Lord, as he needed someone with a background in nuclear fission to fix his suit. Back at the junkyard, Ben demanded that Maxwell fix his suit, otherwise people were going to be building memorials to the latter. After Supergirl tracked down Krull's location, the two fought once more, with Krull swiftly defeating and nearly killing her before Superman arrived, and the two engaged each other. Krull later crashed Cat Grant's party for the special issue of CatCo Worldwide Media's monthly magazine, looking for Supergirl. Soon after arriving, Krull was baited away outside by James Olsen as Superman's best friend. While flying after James, firing nuclear energy blasts at him, Krull was once again engaged by Supergirl, with him eventually being defeated by her, after the core of his suit was removed and encased in led.
