Biography[]
Early life[]
Gene Huskk was, at some point, hired by McCulloch Technologies and had been working in their classified R&D department for over 20 years. After a man called "Malcolm Strombard" was promoted into his group, Gene became suspicious and found Strombard with an infrared photon rifle that had been under development. The next day, Gene discovered that both Strombard and the rifle had disappeared, prompting him to look into the mystery and then learning that "Malcolm Strombard" didn't officially exist. Despite questioning McCulloch Technologies over this, Gene was subsequently fired.[1]
Helping Iris West-Allen[]
After being fired, Gene Huskk sought out the Central City Citizen Media, willing to be Iris West-Allen's source during her investigation on the Black Hole organization. However, he refused to speak on-record due to McCulloch Technologies knowing his voice and adamantly decided to remain anonymous. Despite this, McCulloch Technologies' C.E.O., Joseph Carver figured out that Gene Huskk was Iris' source and, during another meeting with him, Gene was murdered by Dr. Light, who had been sent to assassinate Iris.[1]
Legacy[]
While in the Mirrorverse, Iris wanted to know the truth about Eva McCulloch and how long she had been holding her prisoner as she pretended to be her friend. Iris saw in Eva's secret room that when Gene was being attacked by Doctor Light, Eva was watching through a car's side-view mirror.[2]
