History
Overlord is the champion of the planet Andromeda in the Andromeda star system and leads the army of its royal family which rules the planet under tyrannical policies. Overlord’s people genetically altered his DNA at birth giving him complete cellular stability because he was chosen far before then to become their planets champion.
WONDERBOY 30 ENDLESS NIGHTS
During his mission to find and defeat Superman, Overlord was encountered by the Indigo Lantern (Ronnie Millers). After a heated fight Overlord seems to be the victor but Bombard, and Wonderboy come to aid the amethyst knight. Even with the three heroes working together, they were still no match for the andromedan champion. Red Star also appears to aid the young heroes and after completely exhausting all of their abilities, Overlord decides to retreat stating he needed to recharge in order to properly fight Superman.
Powers and Abilities
Powers
Andromedan Physiology: Overlord's cellular structure is more dense, resilient and biologically more effective than human tissue. Strangely enough, he does not seem to possess superhuman strength levels despite his enhanced cellular ability without his cellular structure charged with yellow solar energy. The Andromedan physiology is almost identical to the Kryptonian due to them both hailing from the same star system.
Solar Energy Absorption: Technically, this is the main source of Overlord's powers. Because Overlord's powers are greatly due to exposure to Earth's yellow sun, his powers have been affected by extreme absorptions of solar power, whether voluntary or involuntary. However, Overlord has used this to his advantage in battle in many instances, and to his detriment at certain times.
Solarbolts: Because Overlord is a perfect genetic clone of Overlord, he has the ability to channel and project solar energy into bright red destructive blasts called "Solarbolts".
Superhuman Strength: The exact magnitude of Overlord's strength is unknown. This is because Overlord's strength should effortlessly range into the multi-megaton level at the very least. While the exact magnitude of Overlord's strength is unknown, it is generally accepted that his strength easily surpasses the capacity to lift 1,000,000 tons, but how much more is not known exactly.
Invulnerability: Overlord's body is nigh-invulnerable.
Longevity: Overlord can live almost indefinitely.
Superhuman Stamina: Overlord has the ability to maintain continuous strenuous physical action for an undefined period. Theoretically, most incarnations of the character has unlimited stamina as his enhanced nourishment is produced from the solar energy his cells process. Overlord like other Andromedans does not get tired and does not need to eat or sleep and can be sustained on Solar energy alone. He can also hold his breath for an undefined duration.
Flight: Under one Earth gravity Overlord is capable of flying at faster than light speeds. He tends to fly at speeds of Mach 10 in the atmosphere. His control of his flight is perfect and he can perform aerobatic feats such as hovering, flying backwards and even lifting great weights while flying. Overlord can fly at speeds many times faster than light. Overlord has the ability to fly in outer space.
Superhuman Speed: Overlord is capable of enhanced reflex action and the ability to move at incredible speeds by sheer force of will. While not nearly as fast as the Flash, Overlord can move at speeds much faster than light and is one of the fastest beings in the Universe.
Superhuman Hearing: The ability to hear any sound at any volume or pitch. The only Earth creature who can detect sounds at the frequency he can is a blue whale (0.01-200,000 Hz). He has shown enough control to block out ambient sounds to focus on a specific source/frequency. He can hear every single heartbeat, as well as the blood pumping through everyone's veins, hear every foot step, every cell phone signal as it lances through the air and more. He can identify a person by their heartbeat, or pick out a single voice in an entire world.
Super Smell: On various occasions, Overlord has demonstrated that his sense of smell is significantly enhanced to the point he can smell odors across the entire planet without any problem.
Super Scream: In one instance, Overlord was shown to have the ability to project a "super scream" from his vocal cords. He used this ability to cancel out the impending threat of an already exploding nuclear detonation.
Self-Sufficiency: Doesn't need to eat and sleep so long as he's under the effects of yellow sun radiation. His body stores the energy necessary to negate eating and sleeping for an indefinite period.
Healing Factor: In the extreme event that Overlord is harmed, either by an alien matching his own strength or other occurrence, he has been shown to have the ability to heal almost instantaneously from any wound, assuming that the process is not impeded from some outside factor
Super Breath: The ability to create hurricane force winds by blowing, and to chill his breath in order to freeze a target (this latter ability has also been called "freeze breath" and "arctic breath"). The ability to chill inhaled air is a function of Overlord's great strength and invulnerability. When Overlord takes air into his lungs they compress the incoming gas. When this gas expands upon exhalation, in a fashion analogous to the operation of an air conditioners compressor, the sudden increase in volume of the gas causes its temperature to drop proportionally to the size of this expansion. Overlord can also breathe in large amounts of air, an ability used when dealing with and disposing things like clouds of poison gas.
Heat Vision: The ability to fire beams of intense heat at a target by looking at it with the conscious act of activating this power. Visually, the power is typically depicted as two beams of red light firing from his eyes. These beams can be made invisible, allowing Overlord to work undetected.
Super Vision: He also possess a superior sensory arrangement of microscopic, telescopic, infrared and ultraviolet visual capabilities. He is able to see the entire spectrum. Part of the mechanism is physical, part of it is believed to be psionic in nature. Abilities include:
Electro-magnetic Spectrum Vision:Overlord can see into all of the EM Spectrum. He can see and identify radio/television and any and all broadcast/transmitted frequencies, allowing him to avoid detection through radar or satellite monitoring methods. Overlord can see the aura that every living thing generates.
Telescopic Vision: The ability to focus his vision to see something at a great distance, without violating the laws of physics.
Microscopic Vision: The ability to see extremely small objects and images down to the sub atomic level.
X-Ray Vision: The ability to see through anything except lead. Opponents sometimes used lead-lined constructs in an attempt to hide things from Overlord. He can see things behind a wall as if the wall were not there, or can "peel back" layer after layer of matter in his mind. Oni-Em is able to focus his vision past layers of matter, literally seeing "through" them -- possibly perceiving x-rays, cosmic rays or other forms of energy invisible to normal human vision which pass through Earth's atmosphere (and solid objects) after emission from stars. Since it is passive, this ability would not generate harmful radiation in the same manner as a focused projection of hard X-rays.
