History
Superfreak was born in 1976, when a fragment of the American Talisman came into possession of a stoned disco devotee named Leviticus Jones.
Attending a particularly enjoyable bash, he drew the talisman fragment out to see how light from the disco ball would look on it. He wished that the good times could go on forever. He ‘found himself frozen in the moment, his mind forever lodged in a 1970’s perception of the world around him.
The talisman also imbued his clothes with certain powers, which he has since used to fight those who would bring the party to an end.
Personality
Superfreak’s mind is awash in 1970’s music, clichés, and psychedelic hallucinations which he is able to share with the world from time to time. He loves to party, but will act to protect the innocent and keep criminals from bumming everyone out.
His confused mental state makes him all but impossible to control or influence mentally.
