History:
Television reporter Vic Sage was
determined to rid Hub City of its corruption, utilizing a
mask and color-changing gas created by his friend
Aristotle Rodor, to become the Question.
When a tape acquired by The Question was aired by Sage,
Mayor Wesley Fermin and his men swore to kill Sage.
Fermin had hired Lady Shiva (see Lady Shiva) as an agent
of death and she battered The Question to near
senselessness. Fermin then had him shot and dumped into
the harbor.
Sage awakened in the home of Aristotle Rodor, having been
saved from drowning by Shiva. He was then taken to a
mountain retreat where he was trained by a crippled
martial artist named Richard Dragon (see Richard Dragon).
When his training was complete, he returned to Hub City
to take care of Fermin and his crew. The Question remains
a combatant against Hub City's political corruption. His
lonely battle is a long oone with no guarantee of
success.
Powers & Weapons:
The Question is able to change the
color of his hair and clothes with the gas created by
Rodor. In addition, the mask that attaches to his face is
a combination of two chemicals that form an adhesive and
is virtually unremovable without the proper chemical.
His training by Richard Dragon has made The Question a
master of martial arts, superior in hand-to-hand combat.
