HISTORY
Frido, a drug-user in Miami, Florida, got a particularly bad dose of drugs one day, and got even more than he bargained for during an intense solar cycle. He had discovered the power to absorb energy, and went on a rampage trying to get a new fix, killing his dealer, Carlo the Man. He continued through Miami causing havoc and looking for his girlfriend, Lacy, until Firestorm (suffering a slightly weaker condition due to the sunspots) was able to finally short-circuit the blue-energied Sparx.
