Champion
of the Universe
Real
Name: Tryco Slatterus Occupation: Competitor Identity: His existence is known to the people of Earth,
through largely disbelieved Legal Status: Unknown Place of Self-Awareness: The Ancrindo Nebula, in the
direction of the Magellanic Clouds' Marital Status: Single Known Relatives: All of the bipeds in the Thudrax, Baccan,
and Velabian Systems and reputed to be his offspring. Group Affiliation: Elders of the Universe Base of Operations: The Universe First Appearance: MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE ANNUAL #7
History: Like all the Elders of the Universe,
the origin of the Champion is lost in antiquity. What
is know is that he is one of the oldest living beings
in the universe, having been among the first of the universe's
races to become sentient in the wake of the Big Bang itself.
Truly immortal, he grew bored with the mundane pursuits
of common existence, and decided to devote himself to
physical self-perfection. After training himself for millennia,
he set forth to learn all the methods of physical combat
in all the known galaxies. Now he travels from one inhabited
planet to the next, challenging the champions of each
planet to a personal match using a form of fighting native
to that world. In fifty thousand bouts on twenty thousand
worlds, the Champion has never lost. He has visited Earth
and battled superhuman champions there. The Champion joined
the other Elders in an unsuccessful attempt to kill Galactus.
Height: 9 ft. 2 in. Weight: 5,050 lbs. Eyes: Silver Hair: Red
Strength Level: The limits of the Champion's
strength are not known. In Earth's gravity, he can lift
(press) at least 100 tons. His strength derives from the
channeling of cosmic energy for physical use.
Known Superhuman Powers: The Champion controls
the power primordial, the energy derived from the Big
Bang itself. He has channeled this power into the development
of his physical form: his musculature, his reflexes, his
stamina, and his strength, while the exercise of human
strength taps electro-chemical energies of the complex
molecules in the body, the Champion's strength taps cosmic
nuclear energies. His physical strength is only determined
by the amount of cosmic energy his finite form can contain.
This limit has yet to be seen. He apparently never tires
since his body has the ability to tap whatever energies
it needs to recuperate. He cannot be hurt by any means
short of molecular dispersion. Having channeled all of
the cosmic energy as his command into making his body
a perfect fighting machine, the Champion can no longer
direct that energy from his body into force-blast as many
other energy manipulators can.
Abilities: The Champion has mastered untold
thousands of different martial arts and fighting styles
culled from across the known Universe, and spends the
majority of his time between championship matches practicing
these arts.
Limitation: The Champion's limitations
are not known.
