No one knows how RAINBOW BOY got his incredible powers, and at first glance you might wonder how a flying guy with a rainbow trail qualifies as a superhero; well imagine the ability to travel at the speed of light and to use cohesive light to change the direction of an explosive missile! Yes, something that looks like it belongs more on a unicorn can be used to battle crime and enemies in battle! RAINBOW BOY did not have an extensive comic career, but with about a dozen stories (1942-1943), often teamed up with HYDROMAN, RAINBOW BOY is a full-spectrum SUPERHERO!
