Name: Robert "Bob" Frank
Alias: The Whizzer
Race: Human
Team: The American Six
Voice Actor: Walker Edmiston (old, Whizzer/Bob Frank) and Cain Devore (young)
Theme Song: TBD
Image/Appearance:
WHIZZER
CIVILIAN
History: Robert Frank was a volunteer for the super-soldier program during World War II. The original super-soldier formula which created Captain America had been destroyed by Nazi spies, but scientists were able to create an imperfect version of the serum. Thus, each of the five volunteers were affected differently, and Frank gained the ability to run at great speeds, calling himself the "Whizzer". The five volunteers and Captain America formed the Six American Warriors.
As a member of the American Six, Whizzer embarked on many adventures. However, when they tried to stop the Red Skull from acquiring a doomsday device, Captain America became trapped in a vortex along with the Skull. After the war ended, the remaining five were ordered to disband.
After disbanding, Bob Frank became a comic book artist and art teacher.
Equipment: N/A
Powers:
Hyper-Speed - Whizzer possessed the ability to move at superhuman rates of speed. In his prime, the Whizzer could run at speeds of up to 100 miles an hour for up to an hour before fatigue impaired his performance. With middle age, however, the Whizzer's ability to move at superhuman speed was diminished considerably. The Whizzer's practical reaction time was about four times faster than an ordinary human being's when the Whizzer was in his prime, and the speed at which his brain processed information was heightened to a level commensurate with his bodily speed, enabling him to perceive his surroundings while traveling at high velocities.
Adaptive Physiology - The Whizzer's entire body mutated in ways that adapted it for the rigors of high speed running. His cardiovascular and respiratory systems were many times more efficient than those of a normal human being's. He metabolized an estimated 75% of the caloric energy content of foodstuffs. The chemical processes of the Whizzer's metabolism were so highly enhanced that his body generated unusually low amounts of fatigue poisons, the normal by-products of locomotion which force the body to rest. His joints were smoother and were lubricated more efficiently than those of an ordinary human being's. His tendons had the tensile strength of spring steel. His bones contained unknown materials significantly more durable than calcium to withstand the dynamic shocks of his feet touching the ground at speeds of up to 100 miles per hour. The Whizzer's lachrymose was more viscous than a normal human being's, thus preventing rapid evaporation and replenishment of surface fluids on his eyeballs under the influence of high wind velocity to occlude his vision.
Abilities: The Whizzer had mastered a style of hand-to-hand combat which exploited his ability to move at superhuman speeds.
Weaknesses: Mortal. Thanks to his age, his powers tend to act up.
Trivia:
-He's 5'10" tall.
