Powers: Elemental transmutation.
First Appearance: The Pyrite War
Notes from the Simon Tower Archive: Geez, who came up with these names? “Changer”? “Volta”? “Blast Lass?” Yeesh. Anyway, Changer is a little bit of a letdown. Transmutation is such a versatile power, you can do almost anything if you just learn how, but from everything I’ve read about this guy it doesn’t seem like he got much further than the basics. Sure, turning lead into gold sounds cool, but only until you start to make the market crash. Can you imagine how much more effective it would be if you could turn dirt into penicillin, garbage into food… or a brick into a bomb?

In 1939 Siegel City only had one superhero, the world’s first. When he discovered his powers, Gabriel Ruston thought he would be the second, but died on his first excursion in costume.
After Gabriel’s death, his brother David is drawn into an investigation. What if Gabriel wasn’t the second? What if there were others? What if something tragic happened to all of them?
In Siegel City, nothing is ever what it seems… even in a Golden Age.
THE PYRITE WAR launches on September 10, 2013. Prepare for battle.
