History: The Blue Streak was an operative
of the subversive called the Corporation who was assigned
to infiltrate the international intelligence and law-enforcement
organization S.H.I.E.L.D.'s "super-agent" program.
Inspired by the large number of superhuman crimefighters,
S.H.I.E.L.D. had decided to create its own team of operatives
who had actual superhuman abilities or, like the Blue
Streak, utilized equipment that enabled them to perform
superhuman feats. The Blue Streak wore unusual rocket-propelled
skates that enabled him to move at great superhuman speed.
However, the Blue Streak was exposed as a Corporation
spy and was defeated in combat by Captain America.
After leaving prison, the Blue Streak led a successful
career as a professional criminal in the American Midwest.
His rocket skates and laser weaponry enabled him to pursue
moving vehicles on highways and rob them. Eventually the
Blue Streak clashed again with Captain America, who encountered
him off a highway in the northern Appalachian Mountains.
The Streak finally succeeded in decoying Captain America
into going down a Cliffside looking for him, while the
Streak actually escaped in another direction. Unable to
travel much further using his skates, the Streak hitchhiked
a ride with the driver of a truck. However, the driver
was actually the vigilante Scourge, in disguise, who murdered
the Streak.
Height: 5 ft. 10 in. Weight: 190 lbs. Eyes: Blue Hair: Red
Strength Level: The Blue Streak possessed
the normal human strength of a man of his age, height,
and build who engaged in moderate regular exercise.
Known Superhuman Powers: None
Weapons: The Blue Streak wore laser weapons
on his wrists and arms that could project intense beams
sufficient to melt through the side of an armored car
within less than thirty seconds.
The Blue Streak also carried sharp tacks that
he would scatter behind him to puncture the tires of pursuing
vehicles.
Transportation: The Blue Streak wore "rocket
skates" that enabled him to skate at speeds at least
up to 125 miles per hour. The roller skates were mounted
on boots that contained jet equipment that thrust concentrated
streams of air behind the Steak, propelling him forward.
The Streak could activate retro-rockets (which also fired
jets of air) in the toes of his boots to propel him backwards.
The Blue Streak could skate so fast he could travel up
walls. The skates also enabled him to make leaps of ten
feet.
Paraphernalia: The Blue Streak wore a costume
containing a visor for his eyes, heavy padding, and armor,
to protect himself from the effect of air friction and
resistance, and also to shield himself from injury in
the case of an accident. The Streak's costume contained
breathing equipment to enable him to take in oxygen while
moving at high speeds.
