History

Early Life[]

Huey Moon was an homeless man living in a junkyard in Philadelphia, he possessed a rare gene that gave him fire-related abilities. Everything he had would burn, including his clothes, and because of that, he decided to isolate himself in a junkyard where there was nothing to burn nor anyone to hurt.[1]

Joining Miracleman's New Gods[]

When Miracleman and his companions decided to look for other superhumans living on Earth to join them, they found Huey Moon, and talked to him, trying to convince him to join them. He was finally going to have company and a place to live without worrying about his powers hurting anyone, and he would be able to use them to help mankind instead, so after some reluctance, he accept the offer.[1]

He was later part of the group of heroes that fought and defeated Johnny Bates in London at the cost of Aza Chorn's life.[2]

After the defeat of Johnny Bates, Miracleman and his companions decided to fix planet Earth and rule it as benevolent gods from the top of their fortress, Olympus, which Miracleman had created from the destroyed city of London.

As one of Earth's New Gods, Huey Moon was responsible for Earth's energy demands. He created windmill forests, coastal waterwheels, and converted obsolete space weaponry into reflector satellites. He was later seen with his fellow New Gods on top of Olympus celebrating.[3]
