Powers and Abilities : The full extent of the Overmaster's abilities are unknown. He has claimed to have cosmic awareness, and while certainly not omnipotent, has exhibited great foresight into both past and present events. He wields cosmic energy and has used it in both constructive and destructive ways - he has been able to increase the power of a metahuman's abilities, as he did with
Ice, or channel the energy into devastating energy bursts projected from his hands. The Overmaster is also twenty-five feet tall, and possesses superhuman strength and durability. He exhibits total immunity to elemental attacks.
Weaknesses : The Overmaster is vulnerable to his own powers. Will Everett III, the second Amazing Man, was able to defeat the Overmaster by absorbing his cosmic energy blasts and then deflecting them back at him.
History : An enormous extraterrestrial with a god complex, the Overmaster claimed to be 580 million years old. Considering himself a celestial force beyond good and evil, the Overmaster made it his mission in the universe to judge planets, going from world to world and sending his minions to test that world's warriors. If a world were found unworthy, the Overmaster destroyed it and moved on. It is unknown just how many worlds he destroyed before he came to
Earth.
Up[on his arrival on
Earth, the Overmaster send his personal strike force, the Cadre, to put humanity to the test. The Justice League fought and defeated the Cadre, forcing the Overmaster to admit that Earth was a planet worthy of his attentions. With a greater interest in Earth, the Overmaster began manipulating events to his liking, bringing about the rise of the Extremists and recruiting heralds to form a new Cadre. Among those recruited to be part of this new Cadre was Tora Olafsdotter, better known as
Ice.
With
Earth of no more use to him, the Overmaster announced his intention to wipe the Earth clean of life in one week. When the heroes of Earth rose against him, the Overmaster dispatched his new Cadre to eliminate them. The tide of the battle turned when
Ice turned against the Overmaster. In a rage, the Overmaster murdered Ice, only to incur the wrath of her friends. Though assailed by the might of the
Justice League, the villain seemed to be invulnerable, until the Amazing Man deflected his own blasts upon him. Wounded, the Overmaster fell from his spaceship, falling into the depths of an icy cavern.

Judgment Day storyline. Currently still alive.
