Powers and Abilities
Boomslang is athletic and a good hand-to-hand combatant.
He’s also highly skilled with thrown weapons, and has a large number of serpent-shaped throwing sticks. He throws them with enough strength and accuracy to knock out normal persons.
But all in all, he’s out of his depth against actual super-heroes.
History
Boomslang is a former agent of the Viper (Ophelia Sarkissian). He then became a Serpent Society operative. But even among the Serpent Society, he’s a third-stringer.
He also seems rather unlucky. Boomslang generally gets knocked out as a background detail, and is likely to end up wounded. A fight with Wolverine ended in a swift defeat and a broken arm. Later, when fleeing from Captain America, he ran into a street gang that immediately opened fire and gravely wounded him.
