GENERAL OVERVIEW AND PERSONALITY
- Since the year 2735, Savage has been capable of time travel, having stolen alien technology to create a time machine. However, the Justice League has thwarted most of his attempts to use the machine.
- Psychologists have diagnosed Savage as an egomaniacal sociopath ; he has openly admitted to wanting to take over the world and considers himself superior to everyone else in the galaxy.
- Savage takes credit for being Cain, the first person in history to commit murder.
- Credits himself with creating the first Legion of Doom (also known as the Injustice League).
HOBBIES AND INTERESTS
- Savage is very interested in military strategy and, over the course of his immense lifetime, has accumulated a great deal of wealth and vast libraries.
- Savage likes technology and creating new weapons.
- Savage likes to study his opponents, such as the members of the Justice League and his “colleagues” such as Lex Luthor.
KNOWN POWERS
- Immortality: Due to exposure to an unusual radiation generated by a crashed meteor, Savage has been functionally immortal, remaining ageless for over fifty thousand years
- Enhanced intelligence: The radiation from the meteor also increased his neurological functions, immediately propelling him to the next stage of development (while the rest of his race remained Cro-Magnons)
- Enhanced strength and regenerative powers: Savage can be hurt, but his skin begins to instantly heal itself; an enhanced level of strength makes him strong enough to fight powerful beings such as Superman
- Superhuman speed: While Savage has enhanced speed, he is not as fast as members of the Justice League.
WEAKNESSES
While Savage is immortal, he is still capable of being captured by any of his enemies who are stronger than him. He is affected by drugs and alcohol just as any ordinary human. He can be injured, even if his body will begin to heal immediately and during the time it takes him to heal, he is vulnerable.
HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY
In the year 3025, Savage manages to break out of the maximum security prison where he had been held for the past ninety-eight years. Knowing that he was the most wanted criminal across the entire galaxy, Savage goes to his daughter, Scandal Savage, for help. He learns that she has kept his time machine hidden from the authorities and she urges him to use it to travel to a safer time – a time where the Justice League does not know of his existence. This advice leads him to the sobering realization that the only time frame where he is not hunted by the Justice League is in the past – before the Justice League was formed. This angers him because he prefers to live in the present or the future; he feels the past is too ancient and does not afford the technological advances and luxuries to which he's become accustomed.
At the thought, he begins to plot and scheme; a plot forms in his mind. After some careful research and calculations, he determines that the year 2012 is the best time period to return to and implement his plan.
A plan to eliminate the Justice League once and for all.
