Fictional character biography

Everyman is a shapeshifter and member of Lex Luthor's Infinity, Inc. who can physically transform into another person after eating part of their body.[1] He is generally unpopular with his teammates, mostly due to his searching for components of his teammates' living matter (e.g. hair and toenail clippings) to eat.[2]

Everyman is later attacked by Black Canary and seemingly killed.[3] He is later revealed to have survived, but has sustained amnesia and believes that he is Green Arrow. Everyman later works with Cupid, who betrays and kills him.[4]

In Blackest Night, Everyman is temporarily resurrected as a Black Lantern.[5][6]

Powers and abilities

Thanks to Luthor's exo-gene program, Everyman can duplicate any organic lifeform, but is unable to accurately duplicate non-organic matter, as evidenced when he replicated Sarge Steel, who possesses a metal hand.
