HISTORY 

Bruce King was an engineering student who began to suffer a strange phenomenon: his body seemed to uncontrollably generate a type of wave that produced a series of physical effects: First, the neutralization of heat, resulting in intense cold. Second, a complete and impenetrable darkness, the light totally neutralized. And third, alterations of the gravitational field. Every time his powers were unleashed, chaos took over everything around him. King used his scientific knowledge to create the Black-Zero, a device he used to control his abilities. Looking for the origin of his "affliction" he met Gale O'Leary, a young woman who had also recently discovered his special powers. Together they came to the conclusion that they were brothers, biological children of the hero Black Diamond and the villainess Killer Plant. Bruce designed a suit and became Black-Zero, the King of Darkness, and Gale did the same by assuming the alias of Jill O'Wisp. 

Together they joined other sons and heirs of members of the Crime Smashers to form the Young Heroes Alliance.

POWERS & WEAPONS 

King was able to create an area of ​​cold and total darkness where he was the only one able to see. The cold that he could generate was so intense as to quickly incapacitate anyone who wasn't protected or make steel as brittle as glass. With time and training, Bruce was able to use his power to fly or make objects or other people fly under his command, in a controlled way.
