BIO: Professor Echs started out as a scientist, but then moved on to become a journalist and later a historian. Which may seem an odd career trajectory, but think about it: roughly 90% of the people who develop super powers in comics are scientists, journalists or academics. Just playing the odds. Currently, Professor Echs is working on becoming a billionaire playboy.
