Tal-Rho,[1] also known as Morgan Edge, was the brother of Kal-El and the man behind the latter's Kryptonian army.
Biography[]
Sometime after Kal-El's arrival on Earth, Tal-Rho discovered X-Kryptonite and created an army. He then approached his brother and promised him that they could cure Earth of its evilness to resurrect Krypton. They began attacking cities across the globe, like Coast City and Metropolis.[2][1]
Powers and abilities[]
Powers[]
- Kryptonian physiology: Normally, like all Kryptonians, Tal-Rho's capabilities are no greater than a normal human of his physical conditioning. However, once charged by the energy spectrum of a yellow sun, he becomes able to perform various inhuman feats.[1]
- Flight: Tal is able to manipulate his own gravitational field to generate thrust and propel himself through the air.[1]
- Heat vision: By concentrating the solar energy in Tal's body, he can emit red energy beams from his eyes.
- Invulnerability: Tal was able to withstand direct gunfire without taking any damage.
Weakness[]
- Kryptonite: Like all Kryptonians, even while empowered, Tal is vulnerable to the exposure of Kryptonite, a radioactive mineral from his home planet Krypton. Depending on the nature of the said Kryptonite, it will cause a different adverse effect on him.
- Green Kryptonite: Green Kryptonite not only physically hurts Tal, but also it weakens his physical attributes, making him equivalent to that of a normal human.
