HISTORY

Hired by the 2000 Committee to stop Firestorm, this assassin used organic ropes that Firestorm couldn't affect. He later was recruited by Multiplex along with a group of Firestorm foes to fight Firestorm and Blue Devil, but was captured.

He was used by the Suicide Squad in a group of anti-Firestorm foes to try to stop Firestorm when he was threatening to take away the world's nuclear weapons. Surviving that mission, he lost a hand during the Suicide Squad's assault on the Louisiana headquarters of the Manhunters. He was brought back to Belle Reve by Duchess in her first encounter with the Suicide Squad.

While in prison, Weiss became a follower of Kobra, joining the Kobra Cult.

Slipknot was recently killed by Tattooed Man.
