Biography:
Amy was the oldest of two daughters living in the deep south. When she was 14, she began to develop mental powers. She was able to read minds, move objects with her mind, and even make people do her bidding. Her parents thought she was a witch, and kicked her out, calling her a hell child.
Amy decided to head north, towards Orange City, where people with unique abilities were celebrated as heroes. She instead ended up in Greenfield, where agents of Project: Franklin tried to abduct her because of her abilities and age, but she was rescued by the Blackbirds, a team of young heroes who were in constant conflict with Project: Franklin.
Amy was invited to join the team, and seeing the irony, chose the code name Hell Child to use for a heroic identity.
Amy's powers were rapidly growing stronger and stronger, and the power was corrupting her. In fact, one evening, when only her and War Child, the team leader, were at headquarters, Amy used her powers to rape him. Even though War Child was traumatized by the experience, he felt Amy could not be blamed for not being able to keep her powers in control, and they kept her on the team in order to help her.
A few months later, Amy's younger sister Jill showed up, having developed the same powers and also been kicked out of the house. Jill took up the identity of Devil's Daughter. Jill's powers weren't as strong as Amy's and thus did not cause the same problems.
In late 1992, it seemed that the team had been killed on Metor, but indeed they had survived and been captured by the Project, who had experimented on them. The team escaped and based on advice from Powerman, changed their name to the Champions.
In 1995, a mutant named Adam used his powers to take over the Earth. He mind controlled every metahuman on Earth to serve as his honor guard, the Heroes of Earth. However, when the spell was broken, it was discovered that some metas, like Hell Child, were willingly serving Adam's cause, believing in a world where super beings ruled. Hell Child was defeated along with Adam, and her powers were then stripped by Allorin Vonski, along with her memories of ever having powers. In fact, the whole world forget, and because of this, Amy and Jill returned home, their parents having believe the children had just ran away for a few years and were so relieved to have their normal children back.
Thirteen years later, a spell cast by the New Power Organization restored the powers and memories of all super-villains, brought dead ones back to life, and upgrades all of their powers. Amy had her powers back. She had her memories back. She was even more powerful. And she was more evil than ever.
First, she killed her parents and Jill. Then she willingly served as one of two of the New Power's top agents (the other being Powerlord). Hell Child was feared by heroes as she had no problems with killing, and liked to make sure it was going to hurt...physically and emotionally.
The New Power's scheme to reshape Earth as a world of evil failed, however, and Hell Child had to escape and go into hiding. However, not long after, she was abducted along with several other villains and heroes and transported to an alternate dimension by the Protector. They were to do battle for his amusement.
Hell Child killed the heroes Truth and Powergirl during this "secret war", and even killed her teammate Nicole Barstaman. Nicole had very similar powers as Amy. When Amy was mortally wounded, she absorbed Nicole's powers, her memories, and her life force into her, restoring her life and doubling her power. The side effect was that now there are two separate beings residing in one body, though Amy remains dominant.
When the heroes and villains returned to Earth, Hell Child returned to service for the New Power, that had rebuilt itself in her absence. She currently serves as one of the organization's number one agents.
Comments:
This character is actually inspired by one of the nicest, most innocent girls I knew in high school, based on the premise of what those types of powers could do even to the best of people.
Though I never expected when I created this character as a member of the Blackbirds that I would one day maker her one of the most dangerous villains in the Wronskiverse.

Adam
Adam
Created by Robert E. Wronski, Jr.
Real Name: Adam (Last Name Never Revealed)
Current Occupation: Deceased; former ruler of Earth
Parents: Unnamed
Siblings: Timeline (real name unrevealed)
Spouse: None
Children: None
Group Affiliation: None
Place of Birth: Somewhere in America
Place of Death: A satellite orbiting Earth
First Appearance: Timeline # 1 (September 1998)
Biography:
Adam and his brother were twins (not identical) born into a typical American household. It wasn't long before the household was no longer ordinary. From a very early age Adam begin to exhibit abilities. At 2 he was telekinetic. By 4 he was reading minds, and shortly after that he was beginning to be able to control minds. Meanwhile his brother exhibited no powers, and was often Adam's victim.
His parents grew scared and sent Adam away to a government agency called Project: Franklin. The Project tried to turn Adam into a weapon. They kept him locked away, conducted tests on him, sometimes painful. All this time, a psychic connection remained between the brothers. And the normal one knew his brother was evil, and he was afraid.
In 1995, Powerman left Earth after the woman he loved had left him. He left his sister, Powerkid, in charge of protecting Earth as its champion. A few months later, Adam, now 21, broke free of his prison, killing many in the process. He used his powers to within weeks become ruler of Earth, establishing a new order where mutants and meta-humans were a higher class of society than normal people. Additionally, he banished all aliens from Earth. With his amazing powers at this point, he had the power to dominate everyone on the planet. Even magic users were powerless against him.
Adam reorganized the Heroes of Earth as his private army. He admitted the former Misfits as his personal task force. And he placed Powerkid and Zap as his personal guards.
Some of these heroes served willingly, but most were victims of mind control.
During his reign, NighTrain led a team of underground freedom fighters who tried in vain to liberate Earth. However, Adam stayed in power for three years.
In 1998, Powerkid was finally able to gather enough will power to send a mental summons to her brother, who was now living on the planet Hanguk. Powerman immediately headed back to Earth with some new friends and his new bride. It took a few weeks, but Powerman soon found himself on Earth faced with a double threat.
First, he had to rally the Heroes of Earth and NighTrain's team to join forces, both to overthrow Adam and take on another threat. You see, when Adam rose to power, his brother felt he had to stop him. He found a means of gaining the power to travel through time of his own will in order to accomplish a specific plan. Calling himself Timeline, he felt that in order to prevent Adam's rise, he needed to create a world without meta-humans and mutants by travelling back and killing them before they got their powers.
Powerman was able to convince Adam to release the heroes from his control so they could help stop his brother. After all, if Timeline wasn't stopped, Adam was doomed as well. Powerman eventually defeated Timeline, but the only way to stop him was to kill him, and he did so, back in November of 1979, and moments later, off in the distance, he witnessed himself, at age 6, being struck by a meteorite that would change his world forever.
With the heroes free, they returned to the present. And that is when it was learned not all that served Adam had been under mind control. A battle was fought, but Powerman's will, with the power of the Great Unknown, was enough to destroy Adam, literally killing him by blowing up his brain.
Following the aftermath, Powerman reflected that in some ways Timeline was correct. Powerman had been to the future often, and after the next century, there are no meta-humans, and Earth has entered an era where it is part of an interstellar community.
The heroes agree that a world without meta-humans and vigilantes would be for the best. Knowing not all would agree, Allorin Vonski created a massive spell that took away all super-powers, and erased from the minds of all Earth inhabitants of any memories of super-heroes. Only some were spared, who chose to leave Earth to explore space.
Of course, those heroes returned a few years later, and when Powerman, under the control of Doctor Deadly killed President Bush, everyone's memories returned, but not the powers.
Only recently, during an event only known as the Crisis, has almost every hero and villain had their powers restored, and upgraded, and even the dead ones were brought back.
However, the New Power, who were resurrecting villains, knew not to bring Adam back. Adam's power had kept the New Power at bay before, and they weren't going to take that risk.
Comments:
Adam was created for a four issue mini-series called Timeline. In 1995, I was done with Super Comics, and cancelled all titles. I left the universe with Powerman leaving Earth and Powerkid becoming the new Champion of Earth. Powerman's final storyline regarded him learning some secrets from his past and where he truly came from.
Three years later, my creative juices returned and so I wrote Timeline. Timeline was meant to show the consequences of what happens when Powerman abandons his duty. Timeline was meant to show how power corrupts even our heroes. Timeline was meant to be fun, with time travel back to different origin stories, from a different perspective. And Timeline was meant to give Super Comics a better ending, setting the stage for all the future era stories such as Ticon Force, Star Trek: Azrael, Captain Zippy, Star Patrol, and New Earth.
Of course, I did not end things there. I soon continued with those who left Earth, and their explorations, and eventually brought back the entire Super Universe.
Adam will be returning within the next few years, though differently than he had appeared in the past. Stayed tuned to Powerman in 2014.
