Character Bio - Dr. Eliot Franklin was a brilliant physicist in the field of gamma radiation, and was able to do something that his contemporary Dr. Bruce Banner was unable to do, invent a miniature gamma-ray bomb. Doing something else that Dr. Banner didn't do, Dr. Franklin resorted to criminal acts to fund his research. He eventually landed in prison where he became cellmates with Dirk Garthwaite, who was also known as The Wrecker. While in prison, Dr. Franklin also became friends with Henry Camp and Brian Philip Calusky. The four prisoners escaped prison during a thunderstorm and after Garthwaite recovered his magical crowbar, he held it up for all four men to grab onto. When lightning struck the crowbar, the enchantment of the crowbar was reactivated and the four men gained significant super human powers. Dr. Franklin took on the name Thunderball, as he chose a ball and chain to be his weapon of choice and after it became energized by The Wrecker’s crowbar, it became almost indestructible. Thunderball was resentful of The Wrecker being the leader of The Wrecking Crew despite Franklin’s superior intellect, and had plotted against him on occasion but always failed. The Wrecker always took him back into the group as they were all considered the only family he had.
